Chinese history makes its mark THE first Chinese burial in the Sorrento Cemetery was recognised by The Sorrento Cemetery Trust with a commemorative sign placed beside the grave of (Charles) Ah Foo this month. In June 1887, Ah Foo’s name was the third registered burial in the then newly created Sorrento Cemetery at the end of Normanby Rd, Sorrento. Peninsula history enthusiast Peter Munro had the idea to create a graveside sign board after visiting the isolated grave site while conducting walking tours of the Sorrento Cemetery. “The gravesite is unique in that it was sited several hundred metres away from the original denominational sections of the cemetery,” Mr Munro said. For several months, Peter Munro with the help of trust secretary Joan Hoskins, and Melbourne Chinese Museum’s curator Dr Sophie Couchman, painstakingly constructed a text for the sign board about the history of Chinese in early Victoria and on the peninsula. “Details of Ah Foo’s life remain sketchy but delving into a magisterial inquiry into his death certainly unravelled some of the mystery,” Peter said. Ah Foo’s death certificate which is highlighted on the board, lists him as a quarryman, indicating that he probably worked on any one of a number of lime kilns in the area at the time of his death.

Record field for Red Hill poll David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au RED Hill ward voters will have a shire record 17 candidates to choose from when they cast their ballots for a new councillor on 23 August. The long list of names on the ballot paper is seen as a major win for the democratic process which in 2008 saw candidates in six of the then 11 single-councillor shire wards returned uncontested.

Former Red Hill councillor Frank Martin entered council unopposed that year. He faced two opponents in 2012, one of whom is standing again this time. He resigned recently because of ill health. This election’s huge field is a disparate group, including two former councillors, a retired County Court judge, an accountant and a microbiologist. The poll result could have several profound consequences for Morning-

ton Peninsula Shire. With Red Hill ward vacant, councillors are stalemated at five-all on crucial issues, including the site for Rosebud’s proposed Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre (SPA). The new Red Hill ward councillor opposing building SPA on the foreshore, or opposing building it at all, could kill the project. More generally, the long 6-5 dominance of the councillor group led by David Gibb and Anne Shaw could

end, opening up a more collegiate voting era in what has, on major issues, such as development, been a bitter division of views. Cr Martin was on most issues a Gibb-Shaw ally. Several candidates have already expressed concern about the shire’s financial strategy, especially the growing debt burden, which is being exacerbated by the spiralling cost of the SPA. The recently approved 2014-15 shire budget scraped in by five votes to four over concerns about borrowings.

At the 2012 election less than 70 per cent of eligible voters – 8516 of the 12,349 (now 12,509) – cast a vote, 198 of them donkey votes. As was the case then, some 4000 eligible voters live elsewhere, most of them in Melbourne’s leafy eastern and southern suburbs. Canny candidates are writing to these voters, who comprise nearly one-third of the Red Hill electoral roll, to maximise their election prospects. Continued Page 6

Thieves steal church’s gold and jewellery THIEVES stole up to $300,000 worth of gold chains, watches, coins, rings and bangles from the Red Hill Greek Orthodox Church on Wednesday afternoon. An iconic framed image of the Virgin Mary was left behind. The robbery occurred when The Reverend Father Eleftherios Tatsis was farewelling visitors at the church’s front gate. The thieves are believed to have entered a side door and broken a sealed glass box to steal the items. Detective Senior Sergeant John Coburn, of Rosebud crime investigation unit, said police were appealing for public assistance to retrieve the items which had been donated to the church, on Arthurs Seat Rd, over the past 30 years. A church spokeswoman, Georgie Marinis, described the thefts as “shocking”. “We never thought anyone would take anything,” she said. “Now I am trying to put something back on the Virgin so people coming to the church on Sunday won’t feel as bad as we do now.” The icon had been adorned by jewellery collected since the church was established in 1983. A recent photograph shows it covered with chains and surrounded by valuable items. This has helped police establish the value of the haul.

Ms Marinis said the church’s front door was always open, but that the thieves had entered through the side door before breaking the glass display case and grabbing whatever they could. “They must have got spooked when the Reverend Father came back in because there was a trail of gold and jewellery leading to the door,” she said. “We believe they must have been watching him go out – they were very quick.” Normal police practice is to ask local pawn shops to be on the lookout for stolen items as the thieves attempt to offload their haul. “If they try to resell it we will know quickly,” Ms Marinis said. “The most shocking thing is that the thieves may be members of the congregation – that’s got the most ‘aggro’ around here. If it is a stranger we’d find it easier to cope with.” The richly endowed church – the Greek Orthodox Monastery of Panagia Kamariani (Constantinople) – has a façade of traditional byzantine stone. Also on the property are a rectory, historic dwelling and shedding. Anyone with information is asked to phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppers.vic.com.au Stephen Taylor

Hundreds mourn Davisons Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au HUNDREDS of mourners attended a memorial service on Sunday for Frankie and Liam Davison, who lost their lives in the MH17 plane disaster. Crowds flocked to Toorak College to pay tribute to the Mt Eliza couple. Mrs Davison, 54, was an English teacher at the school for 28 years. Husband Liam, 56, was an award-winning novelist and taught creative writing courses at Frankston’s Chisholm TAFE Institute for several years until 2007. The commercial airliner the Davisons were passengers on was downed over battle-torn east Ukraine in the early hours of Friday 19 July. A surface-to-air missile is believed to have hit the plane. Evidence suggests Russian

backed separatists in the eastern European country thought the Malaysia Airlines plane was a Ukrainian transport craft. Mourners including Frankie and Liam’s adult children, Milly and Sam, attended Sunday’s service at Toorak College’s upper playing fields. Prime Minister Tony Abbott has vowed to bring home the remains of 37 Australians who were onboard flight MH17. “By its very nature, it may take some weeks before we can honour the dead by returning them to those they loved and those that loved them. But we will bring them home,” Dunkley Liberal MP Bruce Billson said. Toorak College released a statement from the Davison family: “Liam and Frankie’s family have been extremely touched by the

love and support received over the past week. In 2011 Frankie and Liam visited The Annapurna Self-Sustaining Orphan Home in Pokhara, Nepal, where they were both touched by the incredible work being done there.” Mr and Mrs Davison supported the orphanage, which relies on donations, after their visit. The family has asked wellwishers to donate money to the Nepal orphanage instead of flowers. Donations can be made to: Amelia Davison Annapurna Orphanage, BSB: 063 550, Account: 1036 2702 at bank branches or via online funds transfer.

Quarry calls for permit extension David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au A 10-year permit extension is being sought for the abandoned Pioneer quarry in Dromana following refusal last November for it to be converted to a municipal tip. It would be the second extension sought for the quarry by its current owner, the Ross Trust. It is believed little or no granite has been extracted from it since 1993, when Pioneer Quarries sold it to the trust-owned Hillview Quarries. Pioneer considered the site mined out. The Ross Trust, which owns the Pioneer quarry via Hillview, states in a letter to Mornington Peninsula Shire that it wants the permit extension “to enable the company to utilise the site for uses permitted by the permit and to assess future plans for the site”. The letter, dated 20 March this year, tells shire statutory planning manager Angela Hughes, that it intends to rehabilitate the site and states it has already done substantial work to that end. However, “given the significant rehabilitation costs associated with the use of the site, Hillview Quarries seeks the opportunity to gain further economic benefit from the site prior to undertaking the final reclamation works. “Any failure to extend the permit would pose a significant burden on Hillview Quarries due to the rehabilitation obligations estimated to cost in excess of $500,000.” While not being specific about what

“economic benefit” it seeks to get from the site, its letter states that the shire's planning scheme allows “use and development of land for stone extraction”. The Ross Trust's application to convert the Pioneer site into a tip created huge controversy last year, culminating in refusal by the Environment Protection Authority to allow the proposal on a number of grounds, including concerns about groundwater pollution, threat of bushfires, odour, dust and weeds. These and other community concerns prompted formation of the Peninsula Preservation Group, which led the public campaign against the tip proposal. PPG was headed by Dr Mark Fancett, now a candidate in the Red Hill ward byelection. He has accused the shire of a “disturbing cover-up” in handling the permit extension application. “I am concerned that the council has had [the letter of application] for four months and was not intending to notify neighbours of the application or ask for submissions,” he said. “Considering the obvious community interest in the site it would have seemed appropriate to do so. My concern is that this application would have passed through the planning department and [been approved] by our council.” Dr Fancett said Hillview Quarries got a quarrying licence for the old Pioneer quarry in 1994. It contained an extensive rehabilitation clause to be

activated when mining ceased. “They did not undertake any quarrying in the next five years,” he said. “They applied for a 15-year extension in 1998, which expired in March this year. They did not undertake any quarrying in that period. “They claim [in the letter to the shire] that they have been rehabilitating the site,” including weed removal, planting and “bench remediation” – stabilising rock platforms in the quarry. “I have been visiting the site for over 20 years and none of this has occurred. In fact the neglect of the site has led to

a massive problem with weeds on site and escaping into the adjacent state park,” Dr Fancett said. This is “Another example of the lack of transparency in the decisions made by our representatives”, he said. Hillview chief executive Paul Nitas said the company had not decided on future uses for the site. “We don't have a definitive answer at this stage as to what we want top do with the site. We've asked for a 10-year [permit] extension to evaluate that,” he said. “Who know what's going to happen in five years; who knows what's going to happen in 10 years? We want an

extension of 10 years the same as the previous extensions to enable us to decide what we want to do with the site.” Was Hillview likely to reapply to use it as a tip? “They're your comments, not mine,” Mr Nitas said. “It’s very clear in the letter [that no decision has been made].” He stated “quite categorically” the site would not be sold to the state. “It’s privately owned,” he said. “As we’ve often said: it’s not safe – it’s a mine site.” Asked what other uses the site might be used for, he replied: “Use your imagination.”

Galaxy queen takes on world MISS Galaxy Australia title holder Jessica Martini is all set to jet off to the United States next weekend to compete for the international Miss Galaxy crown. The 26-year-old Hastings resident, who represented the Mornington Peninsula when she won the Miss Galaxy Australia crown on the Gold Coast earlier this year, will compete against national winners from across the globe in Orlando, Florida, from 2-12 August for the prestigious international beauty pageant crown. In the lead-up to the international final, Ms Martini said she had been working hard to help raise funds for the competition’s chosen Australian charities, Make a Wish Foundation and Australia Zoo’s Wildlife Warriors program. She has also be appointed an ambassador for the Cancer Council’s Pink

Ribbon Day and Girl’s Night In, a role she plans to continue upon her return to Australia, whether she wins or loses her international quest. “Being an ambassador for Pink Ribbon Day is something I set out to do before I was even crowned,” she said. “My family has a long history of breast cancer and I wanted to use my title for a purpose. So im very proud of this ambassador role. “I have numerous events planned for when I return from the USA, regardless of the outcome over there, and I’ve even been asked to help host the Main St Mornington Festival later this year.” Follow Jessica’s journey at www. facebook.com/pages/JessicaMartini-Miss-Galaxy-Australia-2014/555348001250598? or visit www.australiagalaxypageants.com/ jessicamartini/

Record field for by-election The two ex-councillors campaigning for Red Hill are Leigh Eustace, formerly of the old Mt Eliza ward and Neale Adams, who was Red Hill councillor in the early 2000s. Cr Eustace lost his place at the 2012 poll, when single-member wards were replaced by multi-member ones. Mr Adams lost to Frank Martin in Mr Adams’s 2012 bid to reenter council. Both would almost certainly look critically at the SPA project, particularly at the foreshore site. Retired County Court judge Tim Wood QC would, if elected, be the second lawyer and second naval officer on council. Cr Hugh Fraser (lawyer) and Cr David Garnock (RAN) represent Nepean and Cerberus wards respectively. Mr Wood still holds the rank of Commodore and is a consultant to the InspectorGeneral of the Australian Defence Force. He has concerns over issues such as neglect of roads and other infrastructure in the ward. Accountant Bryan Payne, once a council CEO, was unsuccessful in the 2012 Nepean ward election, running third behind Tim Rodgers and Cr Fraser. Microbiologist Barbara Porter could be considered a strong and well qualified environmentalist. She was involved in the original successful appeal to VCAT against T’Gallant’s plans to expand its restaurant and wine business on the Mornington-Flinders Rd. T’Gallant succeeded at its second appeal to VCAT. As well as ex-councillors and those who have previously stood for council, Peter Holloway is widely known. A National Trust stalwart and local historian, he has been active in the community for years. His issues include close scrutiny of rate rises, the need for an efficiency audit of the shire

and shire debt reduction. First-time candidates include Dr Mark Fancett, part of the fierce and successful campaign to stop the Pioneer quarry in Dromana being used as a rubbish tip. He helped compile and present a powerful case against the proposal that saw off the plan – overwhelmingly rejected by the Environment Protection Authority. The quarry is in Red Hill ward. Of the others, Canadian Shawn Jackson, who runs a B&B in Red Hill has put his hand up because he is unhappy about how shire decisions affect his local community. Michael Treadwell, 27, has a degree in planning and environment and Rose Ljubicic is a Greens candidate for Preston in the November state election. Kerry Watson, secretary of Red Hill Community Action, is one of the pro-environment candidates – a contrast to Alastair Young, a builder/developer who calculates the shire has 465 green wedge lots that could have a house built on them. Brian Morgan is a cricket umpire and bridge player not opposed to a foreshore pool; Kate Roper and Kylie Greer are proenvironment, Ms Greer having a special interest in placing curbs on the proposed Arthurs Seat Skylift. Leigh Coleman has been aiming to develop his property at 1a and 1b Jetty Rd but is rumoured to be ready to sell the property; Darren Andrew of Safety Beach is an electrician who is also unhappy about how the shire is being run. A final point: for those to whom this is a concern, eight candidates live outside the ward. This writer believes that, in the era of mobile phones and motor cars, this is not a substantial factor. It has not deterred voters in Cerberus and Seawinds wards from electing Cr Garnock (Mt Eliza resident) and Cr Gibb (Dromana farmer).

Lifeline for lifesavers

THE state government has thrown a lifeline to the Gunnamatta Surf Life Saving Club, above. A $100,000 grant will be used to replace the south wall of the clubhouse and maintain its structural integrity, said MP for Nepean Martin Dixon. Some of the money awarded under the Victo-

rian Emergency Services Equipment Program will also0 be used to buy extra equipment in the lead-up to the patrol season. Meanwhile, Parks Victoria has temporarily closed the stairs leading to the Gunnamatta beach for public safety following storm damage and is waiting advice on an insurance claim.

Protection for support centre A NEW gate that can only be opened using a security will be installed at the Southern Peninsula Community Support and Information Centre in Point Nepean Rd, Rosebud. Crime Prevention Minister Edward O’Donohue said clients and workers at the centre had been “subjected to threatening and offensive behaviour by people who shouldn’t be there in the first place”. Mr O’Donohue was at the centre last week

to announce a $9000 state government grant to improve security at the centre. “The security upgrade will help protect the residents who use the services, many of whom are vulnerable, and ensure the facilities are available for all the community to safely use,” he said. MP for Nepean Martin Dixon said the project was one of 166 community “safety initiatives” sharing $1million in the latest round of the Community Safety Fund grants.

LETTERS SPA at no shire cost Great news, a baths, geothermal and hot springs at Point Nepean (‘State backs point development’, The News 22/7/14), well above any climate change sea level rise, with lovely views, and all at no cost to Mornington Peninsula Shire, which will help with the shire debt. Keith Murley, Blaigowrie

Embarrassing? It must have been embarrassing for Cr David Gibb to have a Nepean ward councillor request Mornington Peninsula Shire officers on behalf of Cr Graham Pittock to prepare a report on an incident (flooding in the Murray-Anderson and Point Nepean roads area) that was clearly in the middle of Cr Gibb's Rosebud heartland (‘Council Watch’, The News 8/7/14) . If Cr Gibb is the strong advocate for the residents of Rosebud as he would have us all believe, why did he not initiate the report by shire officers, rather than Cr Pittock, let alone then try and bury the investigation through a Shire-wide analysis that could foreseeably take months or years to complete? Very strange. Perhaps Cr Gibb should focus his attention on issues within Rosebud that do impact upon the day-to-day lives of all residents of Rosebud, rather than wasting his time and our money on SPA that not many Rosebud residents want and even less will actually use. Ian Bennett, Fingal

Port confusion

your article, the former head of the Port of Melbourne Corporation, Stephen Bradford, said “it could have potentially catastrophic environmental consequences”. Labor is just all over the place on this....as usual, its left hand has no idea what its right hand is doing. Stefan S Borzecki, Somerville

No other choice Melbourne and Victoria need a natural deep water port to cater for the container vessels of the 2020s which are being built now. How can the Labor shadow minister [Natalie Hutchins] even entertain the prospect of Bay West at Werribee? These ships would not get through Port Phillip heads. The constant and annual dredging required would make Port Phillip an environmental disaster, from what I have read from experts. The natural deep water channels in Western Port are over 20 metres deep and would accommodate these future vessels. There is only one choice for a new port and that is Western Port. John Bryce, Crib Point

Tourism jobs loss The article ‘Labor divide over port’ (The News 8/7/2014) quotes the Labor candidate for Hastings Steve Hosking as saying he will back the multi-million dollar expansion of the port [of Hastings] if it will lead to more jobs in the area. He then goes on to say that it may mean as few

40 jobs. Hopefully this won’t be enough potential jobs to cause him to support this outrageous proposal. Labor’s spokeswoman for ports, freight and logistics Natalie Hutchins was reported in a weekend newspaper report as saying, “the case for Bay West was compelling” and suggested that it would create thousands of jobs in Geelong. Mr Hosking has asked Ms Hutchins to help plan a jobs forum at Hastings. I wonder what these “thousands of jobs” will be and why they won’t be available in Hastings. These confusing statements seem to be saying that while the Labor party line is against the siting of the port at Hastings, it could still go ahead if the “comprehensive and transparent cost-benefit analysis to test Bay West against all other possible siting alternatives” shows Hastings to be the favourable site. Mr Hoskings seems to say that the port would not be a huge job creator, but a fully automated port with just a few operators. Does this mean that he would not be in favour of the project? I hope he is talking about net jobs after taking into account the potential loss of tourism after beautiful Western Port has been turned into a lifeless swamp some years after the Port of Hastings becomes operational. What about the jobs Australia wide that have been lost due to manufacturing being sent off shore so that we can import what used to made here in Australia? I would happily pay more for t-shirts and plastic

Protector praised I AM writing in response to your article on the bird Lover bullying backlash (‘Accusations fly over bird sale’, The News 8/7/14). I just want to say through you to Paris Yves “Good on you for looking out for our birds”. Those [people] that are bullying you have something to hide or protect that takes them away from their duties as respectable bird managers. We need more people in our world that stand up for animal wellbeing. I was passing through your lovely part of the world and picked up this paper. I might add that I was moved by her love of birds and her bravery. Take care. Jennifer Sherriff, Melbourne

DPC140502.02

I am confused? Labor claims that if the port is built at Hastings it will create 40 jobs, but if they build it at Werribee it will create thousands of jobs (‘Labor divide over where to put port’, The News 15/7/14). Labor is clearly confusing jobs with the votes it wants in Geelong. Also how do we get the larger container ships being built now into Port Phillip? There is only 14 metres access depth at the heads - and much less depth through solid basalt to Bay West - compared to natural deep water channels of over 20 metres in Western Port. Constant annual dredging would be needed to widen and deepen Port Phillip heads. As stated in

Port call: Debate continues to rage of the location of Melbourne’s proposed new port. Picture: Yanni

containers if it meant that it stopped some of this unnecessary movement of goods - or sometimes just inferior junk - all over the world. At present there are many tourist operators around Western Port bringing hundreds of visitors to this beautiful and unusual place and providing many jobs. Western Port is a very popular fishing area with hundreds of people out in their boats enjoying the abundance of whiting, snapper and so on every fine weekend. Where ever this new port is located, massive dredging will need to be done and while this is very harsh on the environment, I feel that the results of such a massive undertaking will be catastrophic to the delicate balance of Western Port. The mangroves are an important ecological feature of the bay as are the sea grass meadows and these are susceptible to build up of silt. The mangroves and sea grass provide shelter for hatching and growing fish and other sea creatures. But I guess with 3000 container ships ploughing through our beautiful bay each year, no one will be going out fishing anyway. We can only hope that Bay West is chosen as the best site for the port expansion and Western Port is left alone to stay as lovely as it is now. However, I do feel sorry for the people in the west who have to suffer so that more cheap junk can be landed on our shores, only to end up as landfill. Anne Russell, French Island

100% of your fire levy goes to our fire services Last year, the Victorian Government replaced the Fire Services Levy with a fairer system, as recommended by the Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission. Now every property owner contributes a fair share to Victoria’s fire services, not just those with adequate insurance. Eligible pensioners and veterans also receive a $50 concession. 100 per cent of the fire levy goes to support greater funding of the operations of the Country Fire Authority and Metropolitan Fire Brigade. This includes firefighters, staff and volunteers, training, community education, protective clothing, vital lifesaving equipment and more than 1,200 fire stations and 2,300 trucks. Each year, Victoria’s firefighters attend more than 78,000 incidents, including road accidents and rescues, bush and grass fires, fires in the home, and workplace incidents. It’s a fairer fire levy.

Southern Peninsula News 29 July 2014

Victoria’s paramedics are highly skilled professionals who dedicate their lives to serving the community and helping out in tough times. Ambulance Victoria and Victorian Government representatives have been negotiating with the ambulance union over a new pay deal for paramedics since August 2012. To break the deadlock, the Victorian Government has agreed with Ambulance Victoria to make a new pay offer to paramedics.

This new offer is fair and reasonable. It includes: • a sign-on payment of $3000 for full-time paramedics (pro rata for part-timers and new employees) – this is twice as much as the previous offer • an immediate 6% wage increase • an increase of 3% in July 2015 and a further 3% in July 2016 – a 12% increase in total. Paramedics may also receive pay increases arising from the Fair Work Commission’s arbitration of their work value claim. Paramedics existing terms and conditions will be retained, so that they continue to receive: • 10 weeks paid leave annually • 10 weeks paid parental leave • 6 months long service leave after 15 years service • tax exempt benefits of up to $9000 a year. Victorian paramedics will still be the only paramedics in Australia to have access to guaranteed superannuation benefits via a defined benefit superannuation scheme, including a lump-sum option after 30 years of service. These increases will mean an ALS Year 6 paramedic can receive a total package of more than $110,000 a year (including rolled-in-rate, built-in overtime, FBT exempt benefits and guaranteed superannuation benefits – but not additional overtime). In addition, paramedics will receive the $3,000 sign-on payment. The Victorian Government is continuing to invest in ambulance services, with funding provided for an additional 539 full-time equivalent ambulance officers. This new pay offer gives paramedics the salary increase they deserve, maintains the generous terms and conditions they enjoy today and recognises the importance of the job they do protecting and saving lives.

Lives changed by terror in Timor

Family day at the gallery

AS well as the disturbing scenes of war and violence we often see from afar are the consequences which last for years and generations: trauma, loss of social “glue”, a lesser capacity to build a better life. Timor Leste (East Timor) has become familiar to thousands of Australians who have put their skills and energies to help and redress past injustices experienced by a poor and vulnerable nation distorted by violent colonialisms, most recently Indonesian, from 1975 to 1999. The Timorese people were ignored by other nations, including Australia, which collaborated or looked the other way. Last year’s Timor visit by 14 local Friends of Lospalos (supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire) was a highpoint in this eight-year relationship, which has financed many education and other projects. But the Timorese also said “It’s not just the money, you are our family.” The new feature film, Beatriz’s War, illustrates some of the post-colonial issues which afflict re-construction. After a massacre by Indonesian soldiers, Beatriz’s husband, Tomas, disappears, hopefully to join the Falintil resistance. As happened all over Timor, when the men were killed or fled to the hills to fight, women grew as leaders and made hard choices, including in their role as “clandestinos”. Following independence, Tomas returns and is a different man; Beatriz has changed also. Exploring their new relationship, she asks herself uncomfortable questions about him and what happened

A FUN-filled community day will entertain visitors at the Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery on Sunday with an exhibition of works by Lynley Dodd, creator of book characters Hairy Maclary and Slinky Malinki. Dodd’s name is synonymous with her creation: the unkempt hound, Hairy Maclary. More than five million copies of the story have sold worldwide. Her other popular children’s books include the Schnitzel Von Krumm series and Scarface Claw. Visitors are invited to take part in a treasure hunt, visit the animal nursery, listen to book readings, enter the pet parade and enjoy the Flying Bookworm Theatre Company’s entertaining shows. “Visitors can take a tour of the exhibition, and rediscover all of Dodd’s cute creatures. It will be a fun day for family and friends, and your favourite pet too,” the mayor Cr Antonella Celi said. The gallery at Civic Reserve, Dunns Rd, Mornington, opens 10am-4pm. A $10 family day pass comprises 10 tickets for activities and unlimited access to the gallery. A sausage sizzle and coffee van will be on site from 10.30am. The program includes Detective Snout (10am-4pm); book readings (10.15am, 11.45am-midday, 1.45pm-2pm); children’s workshops (10.30pm-3pm); animal nursery (11am-3pm); pets on parade (11ammidday); face painting (11am2.30pm); and the Flying Bookworm Theatre Company (1pm-1.45pm and 2.30pm-3.15pm).

On Location: Some of the extras in the feature Beatriz’s War were present during a massacre depicted in the film’s storyline. Beatriz, left, is played by Irim Tolentino.

during his 16-year absence. She has seen and done enough to be strong and determined enough to resolve her doubts. Melbourne producer/directors Luigi Acquisto and Stella Zammataro have made a number of documentaries about Timor Leste since 2001, and teamed up with Timorese filmmakers Bety Reis and Lurdes Pires for “Beatriz’s War”. The cast includes Jose da Costa (Answered by Fire, Balibo) and the screenplay was written by Irim Tolen-

tino (Beatrix) who also plays the lead of Rosa in a Timor TV series. The real-life experiences of the Indonesian occupation have informed the acting of many of the cast, and bring out some compelling and anguished performances. One location, Kraras, was the site of the 1983 massacre portrayed in the film and some of the film extras were there at the time. The film took more than a year to make and received early support from SBS Television, the Timorese army

and companies such as Toll Logistics, Airnorth and Rentlo. The Friends of Los Palos, Amnesty International, and Mornington Peninsula Human Rights Group are screening Beatriz’s War as a fundraiser at Mornington Cinema on Tuesday 5 August. A short report about Lospalos at 7pm will be followed by the film at 7.30. Information and bookings at www.trybooking.com/FJNW or www. trybooking.com/94324 Kevin Bain

Future of Western Port up for debate IS Hastings destined to be an international container port, or are there other scenarios that could secure both the economic and environmental future of the bay and the surrounding region? These far-reaching questions will be evaluated at the workshop: Scenario Planning for Western Port Bay, to be held at the Newhaven Yacht Squadron on Phillip Island over five days from 28 July-1 August. And the organisers are inviting interested residents to take part. The workshop is being led by Australian National University professor and ecological economist Robert Costanza, and Dr Ida Kubiszewski, a senior lecturer at ANU and managing editor of Solutions and other publications. Those attending are expected to include business, government, environmental and social science leaders who are interested in helping to shape the future economy and ecology of the Western Port region. Organisers are the ANU, Preserve Western Port Action Group and the Victorian National Parks Association – with the support of Bass Coast Shire Council. Scenario planning is a structured process of exploring and evaluating plausible futures. Exercises have been conducted here and internationally on a range of issues, including regional futures, corporate strategy, political transition and community-based natural resource management. The innovative process will involve larger groups on days one and five - up to 100 each day - and a small, dedicated group of up to 25 people over the entire week. The five-day workshop is expected to set the scene for the rest of the week with guest speakers introducing up to 100 participants to scenario planning. The work achieved on day one will shape the scenarios to be evaluated over the next three days.

These will involve working groups of 20-25 participants “fleshing out and evaluating” scenarios. The final day will involve reporting back on the preliminary results of the scenario planning with opportunities for feedback, discussion and input into the next steps which are open to up to 100 participants. Those attending the entire workshop will be supplied with background reading material, and staff and students from ANU will help guide them through the five-day process. Organisers are looking for people of different backgrounds and a cross section of expertise to join in the workshop for the full five days. that, for participants to get the most out of the workshop, they must be prepared to get deeply involved. “We understand that this is a significant commitment of time and resources, but it is also a huge opportunity to draw on leading global practice to explore an important issue using innovative methodology,” Preserve Western Port Action Group chairman Jeff Nottle said. “Of course, we also understand that people’s time may be limited, so there are options for them to attend the first day to help set the course of the workshop and or the last day (day five) to discuss the preliminary results and give feedback. “Participants can also nominate a delegate from their organisation to register for days one, five, or both, or lodge an expression of interest to attend all five days.” To book a place in the invitation-only event register at the Eventbrite registration page. The yacht squadron is in Seaview St, Newhaven, with catering provided for the full five days.

By Peter McCullough LAST September, Dromana Football Club defeated Sorrento to win its first premiership in 42 years. One of their star players was Adam Hunter who, although the term is often used rather loosely, could legitimately be classed as a legend of the club. Wearing the No. 1 jumper, Hunter started in the juniors as an eight-year-old, has been vice-captain and captain, won three club bestand-fairest awards (the most recent in 2012), and won the league best-and-fairest twice (most recently in 2012). Hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tally of senior games for Dromana exceeds 160 and his service was only interrupted by two years in the VFL with the Frankston Dolphins and a year with Mornington. He has also captained inter-league teams. At the age of 30, married and with a young family, Hunter was in excellent physical condition; he was a moderate drinker and did not smoke. Yet, in the lead-up to the finals, he felt something wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite right. After the celebrations subsided he went for a check-up and was diagnosed with bowel cancer. He retired from football, underwent surgery and embarked on an extended program of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Although his treatment is ongoing, he still likes to have a run with his former team mates and even harbours an ambition to play again in 2015. After they had come to terms with the seriousness of Hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diagnosis, his team mates decided on a positive course of action: they would raise money for research into bowel cancer. With the support of the club and the assistance of Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beat Bowel Cancer (an initiative of Cabrini Hospital), Daniel Waddell, one of Hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team mates, set about organising the special day. It was a home match played on 28 June against Hastings, which also came on board. Waddell worked hard to get sponsors and both clubs wore heritage jumpers. TV personal-

ity Geoff Cox (of Coxyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Break) accepted Waddellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s invitation to attend and addressed the crowd at half time. Cox, a bowel cancer survivor, is an ambassador for Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beat Bowel Cancer as well as being an Australia Day ambassador. After the match the heritage jumpers were auctioned, as were two AFL jumpers (Carlton and Gold Coast) which had been signed by the players and coaches. These were donated by the Warnock brothers (Robert and Mathew) who play for those clubs. More than $10,000 was raised. Hunter was able to lead the Dromana team onto the ground and witnessed a real thriller in which they scraped home by a point 8.11-59) to 7.16-58. Later, Jane Makin, manager of Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beat Bowel Cancer, said she appreciated the efforts of Waddell, his team mates and the two clubs. She provided some information on bowel cancer which does not receive the same publicity as other forms of cancer: ď Ž It is the second biggest cancer killer in Australia (after lung). ď Ž One Australian dies of bowel cancer every two hours - more that breast or prostate cancer. ď Ž It affects men and women almost equally. ď Ž More than 14,000 Australians are diagnosed annually, and around 4000 die. ď Ž It accounts for 13.1 per cent of all cancer diagnosed and 10.1 per cent of all cancer deaths. ď Ž In Victoria alone, more than 1300 people die each year - more than three times the road toll. ď Ž One in 12 Australians will develop bowel cancer in their lifetime. Risk increases with age. ď Ž While 90 per cent of bowel cancers affect those aged 50 and over, around 1000 Australians younger than 50 are diagnosed annually. ď Ž Screening for bowel cancer every one to two years can reduce the risk of dying from the disease by up to 33 per cent. ď Ž Bowel cancer is preventable and, if detected early, can be treated successfully in 90 per cent of cases.

Hospital sets state asthma surgery benchmark SURGERY to ease the suffering of long-term asthma sufferers is now available at Frankston Hospital. It is the first time surgery to reduce the effects of asthma attacks on chronic asthma sufferers for whom traditional medications do not work has been offered in Victoria. Peninsula Healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of thoracic medicine, Professor David Langton, performed the procedure for the first time last week while accompanied by Harvard professor of medicine, Dr Armin Ernst, who pioneered the procedure. The bronchial thermoplasty procedure involves inserting a bronchoscope, or small tube, down the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s airway and into their lungs whilst they are under anaesthesia. A heat probe is then used to treat the muscles that cause bronchospasm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By weakening these muscles they will no longer be able to cause wheeze and asthma attacks,â&#x20AC;? Prof Langton said. Debra Clarke is one of two patients for whom Professor Langton will be performing the surgery on for the first time. The 53-year-old mother of three has spent suffering from the effects of asthma since being diagnosed at 15 months of age. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had asthma for as long as I can remember and nothing has ever been able to relieve the constant wheeziness. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been able to be as active as I want to be. I never played sports. Even in school I used to hide my head in my bag to take my puffer for fear of being labelled as not

normal,â&#x20AC;? Ms Clarke said As a chronic asthma sufferer she has spent her life on medication to try and relieve the constant heaviness in her chest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had all the traditional medication and tried all the experimental trials I could, including going onto chemotherapy medication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am now at the point where the constant use of cortisone steroids is having a significant toll on my

body. My hair is thinning, my skin is weak and I am constantly covered in bruises. I have had to give up so much of my quality of life including my job because of my asthma. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the side effects of the use of steroids to treat asthma is getting diabetes. My dad, who was also a chronic asthma sufferer, passed away from steroid induced diabetes at 59. I really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want that to happen to me.â&#x20AC;? Ms Clarke hopes the surgery will

reduce her reliance on the cortisone steroids, minimise their effects on her body, and reduce her risk of getting diabetes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Within six months Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m expecting to see my quality of life improve dramatically,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just looking forward to doing those things we take for granted like breathing and walking with ease and without the fear of suffering an attack.â&#x20AC;?

The bronchial thermoplasty is only available for patients following a specialist review. Patients must have severe and persistent asthma that is not well controlled despite taking currently available medications. Since the procedure was approved for use in Australia by the Therapeutic Goods Administration in 2013 it has been performed on less than 20 patients in hospitals in Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth.

NEWS DESK

An appointment? To buy pork chops? MRS Emu is in from an outing and in a mood, judging by the forceful closing of the front door. She was off shopping and coffeeing with friends on an expedition to the Great Shopping Centre and it appears not all went well. Emu adopts a snoozing pose as drawers are rattled and cupboards slammed. But snoozing, faked or otherwise, is no defence against an irritated Mrs Emu needing to get something off her chest. “Just imagine it!” she expostulates, bursting in on her recumbent spouse, who twitches realistically, as if in a slumber too deep to be interrupted. To no avail: Mrs Emu is no respecter of feigned sleep when in a mood. “Imagine it!” she said again, with a “I know you're feigning sleep” edge to her voice. “I have to make an appointment. An appointment to have my electronic pad looked at. Have you ever heard anything like it? And all this palaver because the glass screen is broken.” And Emu, it transpires, has a role to play in this appointment. First, he must make it. Then he will accompany his Blushing Bride to the computer store. He suspects he will be there for moral support. At the appointed time on the appointed day they swirl into the store. “Have you an appointment?” a young female inquires. The imperious BB has swirled on, towards a counter marked Genius, leaving Emu to respond in the affirmative. At the counter Mrs Emu is breathing slightly heavily, glaring at three young swains attending to an attractive young female acting helpless, too absorbed to cast so much as a glance at the new customers. “Hussy!” mutters Mrs Emu, slightly too loudly. Ten minutes pass before Mrs Emu's very

own Genius approaches, his luxuriant oiled curls gleaming, matching his smile. “Mr and Mrs Emu,” he breathes, “how can I help you today?” Mrs Emu pushes the pad over the counter. Our Genius observes its smashed screen as David Attenborough scrutinises a spectacular newly discovered insect. “Oh, dear,” he sighs. “How did this happen? What a shame.” “Never mind how it happened, it's what happens now,” says the BB tersely. “I want it fixed as soon as possible.” Genius looks at us mournfully for a long moment. Clearly he has bad news for us. Clearly he is following the script learned at the training sessions Geniuses attend to gain their Genius certificate. “We don't fix them,” he says. “We replace them.” Mrs Emu, and her spouse, are genuinely startled by this revelation, and even more so by the next piece of news. “We can replace this one for $300 or so,” he informs us. “I assume you have backed up all your data. Of course, that will be lost.” Mrs Emu is struggling to comprehend. Lost data? What does this mean? “Can't repair?” she stutters incredulously. “It's just a piece of broken glass. Three hundred dollars – odd? For this we had to make an appointment? Couldn't be told over the phone, or when I came in two days ago? Needed an appointment?” Her voice is rising, her eyes are reddening. Any moment now, thinks Emu, she is going to do that terrifying serpentine manoeuvre with her neck. Watch out for the beak,

Genius. But she doesn't. The Genius remains as stationary and confident as a cat watching the approach of small dog. His Genius course has covered Difficult Customers. “We can only replace,” he intones in a hard little voice, his brilliant smile fixed. “Or you could put clear plastic to the screen so you don't get cut by the broken glass.” Sensing Mrs Emu is vulnerable, he continues. “Unfortunately we are out of clear plastic or I would put one on for you. But a shop on the ground floor stocks them” – he names the shop – “and I strongly recommend you acquire one. “Thank you for calling by,” he says dismissively, all prospect of profitable commerce gone, “and have a good day.” The Emus adjourn to the ground floor, find the shop, find the plastic (“optical quality, $24.95”) and leave the Great Shopping Centre, device unfixed, plastic unpurchased. “I've got clear plastic left over from covering my cookery books,” the BB announces as we climb into the car. “Not optical quality, but it will do the job.” The revelation that his bride possesses cookbooks shakes Emu. Her culinary output has always been rudimentary, he muses. As the motor revs, she harks back. “And for that I had to have an appointment. An appointment! Soon we'll have to make an appointment for a pound of pork chops or a pair of shoes. We’re being conned!” She begins to enumerate items one might have to make an appointment to buy. Emu presses the radio button. It bursts into life with Je ne regrette rien, the unmistakeable warblings of The Little Sparrow (Le Petit Moineau), the dreaded Edith Piaf. Merde! Emu thought he had disposed of this hateful CD. And now his BB thinks he has actually come to like it. Merde encore!

Records library grants MORNINGTON Peninsula libraries have received a welcome boost, with the state government announcing funding would be increased to $915,000 this financial year. The peninsula was one of the big winners from an adjusted formula used by the state government to ensure fairer distribution of annual funding provided for Victoria’s 54 public libraries and library corporations. Local Government Minister Tim Bull said Victorian libraries would receive record recurrent funding of $39.52 million through the Public Libraries Funding Program. This amount for the 2014-15 financial year was in addition to the $17.2 million Living Libraries Infrastructure Program that funds new libraries, smaller redevelopments and refurbishments, he said. Mornington MP David Morris said the funding windfall represented the largest annual amount ever provided to peninsula libraries. “Local libraries are at the very heart of our communities so it is important that library services and councils work collaboratively together to provide high quality services that continue to grow and cater for the needs of all Victorians,” Mr Morris said. “This is the largest amount of funding ever provided to our libraries, reversing funding cuts left by the former Labor,” Mr Morris said. Mornington Peninsula mayor, Cr Antonella Celi welcomed news of the funding increase, which she said will contribute to providing the community with a range of important services. “These include books, CDs and DVDs for loan, online services and resources, mobile library services, public access computers and WiFi, and a range of reading and learning programs for the community,” Cr Celi said.

Bingo fundraiser THE Mornington branch of the Make-A-Wish foundation is holding a Bogan Bingo night to raise money to help it fulfil the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. “The power of the wish has shown to make a major difference to the mental, emotional and even physical health of a seriously ill child or teenager,” Fiona Denny said. “The amazing and lasting joy of a wish is felt by everyone, from recipients, volunteers and the community.” The Bogan Bingo fundraiser, including raffles, games and silent auction, starts 7pm Saturday 23 August at Peninsula Community Theatre, corner Nepean Highway and Wilsons Rd, Mornington. Cost $35 a ticket. Details: 5987 1874.

All areas are privately screened from the street and surrounded by a hardy array of yuccas, ferns and palms. Befitting a property of this calibre, and again underlining the emphasis that you get to enjoy this home, not be a slave to it, there is a host of smart, time-saving features programmed to control the heating & cooling systems inside and the turf and garden irrigation systems outside.

Total relaxation has never looked this good, nor this easy.

Rage against the washing machine

NO BOOK W !

By Stuart McCullough Most appliances are harmless. A toaster would gladly be your best friend given the chance. In fact, if you were to unexpectedly become a hobo at short notice and set off on a cross continental journey carrying nothing but a swag and a water bottle, a toaster would happily trail behind and keep you company the entire way. Or it would, at least, if it had legs. A food processor can’t do enough for you. It’s practically falling over itself just to help out. Televisions are just like windows but better. Kettles hold the unique distinction of being the most yin and yang of all appliances in that they boil water and yet simultaneously soothe the soul. But there is one household white good that should not be trusted. When it comes to this particular piece of domestic hardware, never let it near the steak knives and avoid turning your back on it at all costs. It’s mean and angry and will never be your friend. I speak, of course, of the washing machine. It’s the Incredible Hulk of appliances. It sits there, all harmless and inert until forced to do its job at which point it becomes unspeakably angry. It starts slowly with little more than a gentle whir; like a merry go-round for your clothes. But before you know it, the whole contraption works itself up into a writhing, foot-stomping tizz that falls just short of a somersault as it goes flat-out berserk. It’s as though it’s throwing a spectacular tantrum that would surely earn it a spell in time out were it not for the fact that

it was already in the least attractive room in the house. It’s as though it’s trying to have its way and is eternally annoyed at the fact that it has to wash dirty clothes whilst other appliances get all the glamour jobs. At Tyabb, the washing machine was bigger than the first car I owned. It also had a greater top speed. Given that it had to deal with the dirty

clothes of seven people, it had a lot to be angry about. The laundry was (and still is) just near the dining room table and it was not unusual for us to be working our way through a plate of meat and three vege only to be interrupted by a sound that resembled Dorothy’s Tin Man stuck on ‘The Gravitron’ and trying to squash a mouse. When it got really worked up,

it made a shrieking sound reminiscent of the shower scene from Psycho. Plates would tremble and peas would leap from forks in search of safety as an avalanche of sound that gave the impression that hell’s own portal had just been prised open filled the house. To hear it, you’d think it was the apocalypse rather than just the spin cycle. More than just wail and scream, our machine made frequent attempts to escape. It never succeeded. It must be said that it’s not easy getting over the razor wire and past the guard dogs when you’re chock-full to the brim with school uniforms and PE gear. Not that our machine didn’t give it a pretty good try. It was a common occurrence to find that it had broken loose from its moorings and was pressed up against the door. Sadly, though it travelled the length of the laundry, it never went any further. It’s the curse of not having hands, I guess. The poor thing was probably hoping for the day one of us accidently left the door open and it could, once and for all, makes it break for freedom. Maybe that’s the problem. Perhaps washing machines don’t have severe anger management issues so much as they simply long to be free. It doesn’t seem too much to hope for. Besides, they’re always in the worst spot in the house. Sometimes, they don’t even get a room to themselves. I once lived in an apartment that had a so-called ‘European laundry’. As it turns out, ‘European laundry’ is an especially fancy way of saying ‘cupboard’. Or,

to those of you who’ve ever rented in the metropolitan area, a ‘studio apartment for an affordable budget’. For decades, humankind has contemplated what the world might be like if apes were to rise up and conquer human civilisation as we know it. It’s a question first posed by Pierre Boulle’s novel, ‘La Planete des Singes’, which was later turned into the movie ‘Flashdance’. But the same book was also the basis for the film starring Charlton Heston, ‘The Planet of the Apes’. To this day, it’s a theme that continues to fascinate people. But the real question is this: who’s to say that monkeys pose the biggest risk? Unless you’re Michael Jackson (and, let’s face it, who is?) primates don’t live inside your house. Apes don’t know you so well that they’re intimate with all your dirty laundry. Washing machines, on the other hand... If you think about it, the threat is clear – washing machines are preparing to attack. The day when both front and top loaders alike rise up against their human captors cannot be far away. That’s why we need to get in first. People get hysterical about free-range eggs, never realising they’re holding someone hostage. The time is now. I say we should set our washing machines free. To let them throw off the yoke of servitude so they can roam in packs over the open plains. It’s a delicate matter, but these machines have a cycle for ‘delicates’. Go, dear machine; go and be free. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

At the Bendigo it starts with U.

The Magpies are the real deal NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt CRIB POINT proved once and for all on Saturday that it is a genuine premiership contender after knocking over Dromana for the second time this season. The Magpies answered everything that the reigning premier threw at them on Saturday at Crib Point Reserve before hanging on to win another thriller, 17.6 (108) to 14.19 (103). The first time the sides met, Crib Point kicked the last goal of the game to win by one point. Now, looking at the scoreboard, it would appear that the Tigers squandered opportunities and probably deserved to win. However, it couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be further from the truth. The Tigers did squander opportunities in front of goal, however they certainly didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deserve to win the game. Crib Point was clearly the better team over four quarters and followed instructions to the letter. Dromana didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to listen to a lot of what coach Doug Koop had told them and the result was their third straight loss. Every time the Tigers challenged the home team on Saturday, the Magpies were able to respond with a couple of goals of their own to regain the gap. Crib Point led at every change and Dromana didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit the front once in the contest. The closest they got was within two points in the last quarter.

The Pies booted the first four goals of the game before the Tigers had entered their attacking 50. Crib Point went into the match without Glenn Boyd for the second week, which saw Luke Herrington and Jon Flack swapping between full forward and on the ball. Both finished with four goals and they were instrumental in the win. Brad Davidson also lit the place up, as he so often does, with a couple of clever goals. He too finished with four, while the domination of James Cook in the ruck was instrumental. Cook was wonderful at the centre bounces and around the ground. He beat three opponents in Baldwin, McGrath and Gaertner. McGrath went off the ground in the second quarter with what appeared to be a shoulder injury. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come back on. The undersized Crib Point defence was superb also. Dean Warry, Matt Sloper and Zac Dekluever all gave away height but they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be matched at ground level. The Magpiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; style was to bring the ball to ground, run, spread and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;blowupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the Dromana opposition. It was also a case of play-on at all costs. The Pies have backed their fitness all season and while Dromana appeared to be running them down in the last, it was Crib Pointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running game that saw them kick two goals to seal the game. Dromana lacked system going forward and while the coach was pulling his hair out on the sidelines

because his forwards kept leading wide, it made little difference. There were four players that kept Dromana in the contest. Paul Minchington was clearly his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best player in the middle, Call Park was extremely good, Christian Ongarello gave great drive from half back and Terry Wheeler was dominant. There just wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough support from anyone else. Dromana will get back Michael Falconer and Ash Waterstone this week, while Andy Kiely is another two weeks away. Stuart Cleave (shoulder) is also a chance to play before finals, although it is considered doubtful. The Magpies should get back Boyd in the next couple of weeks and Aaron Murray would be a wonderful inclusion into this footy team. Hastings season is finished after being beaten by Frankston Bombers on Saturday. To say the Blues have been disappointing this season would be an understatement. On Saturday, Hastings was beaten by a team that was more committed, desperate and unified. At no stage were they really in the contest and the scoreboard of 10.10 (70) to 7.9 (51) reflected that. James Degenhardt was outstanding again for the Bombers while Corey Micari and Mitch Bosward were also in fine form. Taylor Stratton was again the Bluesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best, while Luke Hewitt and Steve Charalambous have found some

consistency of late. Grant Masterson and Mick Haddad were both in the reserves, as was Mick Agnello, who was dropped after announcing his retirement before the Rosebud match. Rosebudâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season is also finished after it went down to Sorrento by six goals. The Buds were held goalless in the first half, however, booted six goals to five in the second half to go down 6.6 (42) to 12.6 (78). Leigh Poholke and James Hallahan booted three each for the Sharks. Hallahan was the best player on the ground, while Dave Lawson and Tyrren Head were also at the top of their game. Tom Baker was his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best while Dan Hickey play a great game against his old side. A big wasted season for the Buds, while Sorrento now seems to be motoring towards finals. Rye is also starting to motor and sured-up a place in the finals with a 13.15 (93) to 6.9 (45) win against Devon Meadows. Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach Brent Clinnick announced his resignation through the week, however, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to spur his team to an unlikely win. The Demons kicked away early and stretched their lead at every change. Aaron Findlay was a handful with four goals while Ben Cain and Leigh Morse were also very good performers. For the second time this season, Adam Kirkwood tore his hamstring. They

need to put him on ice now until finals. Teenager James Doria made it five goals in two senior matches with another two while Pat Boland and Brian Wapshott were outstanding. Pearcedale led Somerville all day on Saturday until it mattered most, the final siren. The Eagles booted 3.5 to one behind in the final quarter to win 13.12 (90) to 11.12 (78). Adrian Ridout was the difference between the sides with six goals for the Eagles, while Justin Farrelly was outstanding in the ruck. Pat Heijden was great for the Panthers with four goals and Pat Cadd and Chris Fortnam flew the flag for four quarters also. In the final game, despite resting six top liners, Red Hill managed an 18.20 (128) to 2.8 (20) win against Tyabb. The Yabbies were held goalless until the final quarter. The Hillmen went into the game without the likes of Dan McNamara, Michael Mock, Josh Mold, Jarryd Eames and Sean Holmes. It mattered little as the Hillmen had 18 scoring shots in the first half and 20 scoring shots in the second hour. Jarryd Douglas finished with seven for the winners while Jake Mold and Marcus Dal Lago were also fine contributors. Justin Volk was Tyabbâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best, while Tyson Sparkes continues to impress. Adrian Clay, Nick Taranto and the more experienced Ash Souter and Craig Conlan worked tirelessly also.

Eagles swoop late to beat Dogs PENINSULA LEAGUE

Woodbridge, who had spent a couple of weeks in the twos, stood up most when it counted in the last quarter. Adam Budge had also missed a few games and he kicked a very important goal in the last quarter to put the Eagles in front. Eagles’ coach Troy Shannon said it was another important victory. “You have to beat the best sides in the competition if you want to achieve what you want out of a season,” said Shannon. “We should have put them away in the first quarter but we just didn’t convert our opportunities. Instead of being four goals up, I thought we should have been six or seven in front. “I was pleased with our ability to be able to get going again when the game was on the line. “They (Mornington) had all the momentum and we were able to get that back. Even more pleasing was it wasn’t the same old players that got us out of a hole. “It was guys who have struggled of late, got another opportunity and really grabbed it.” Shannon said Mornington was a “very good side”. “Mornington has a never-saydie attitude and that’s a really good trait to have as a footy side,” said Shannon. “I’d like to think that we are a bit the same and it was two teams having a real crack. “They have a great blend of bigs, smalls, experience and youth and they are going to be good for a while. “I think the bigger decks will suit them better too,” said Shannon. Dale Nolan booted four majors for the Doggies and was among his side’s best, while Chris Paxino and Jai Haddock were outstanding. Bonbeach bounced back from a horrible defeat last week to easily

By Toe Punt Edithvale-Aspendale is four points clear of Bonbeach and Mornington in second place on the Peninsula League ladder after coming from behind to beat the Dogs on Saturday. The reigning premier now has 11 wins from 14 matches, while the Sharks and Dogs are a further game back. Frankston YCW maintained its position at the top of the Peninsula League ladder after beating Seaford. They are a game clear of Edithvale (12 wins and two losses). The fight for fifth place continues, although Mt Eliza now is a game clear of Langwarrin. The Redlegs will finish at least two games clear of the Kangas by season’s end with games against Karingal and Seaford to come in the final four rounds. Langwarrin has Seaford this week but finishes with Edithvale, Mornington and Frankston YCW. The big game on Saturday though was that between the Eagles and the Dogs at Regent Park. Edithvale got away to a flier and led by 23 points at quarter time and extended that to 24 points at the long interval. Mornington came out firing in the third quarter, booted 4.4 to four behinds and scores were locked together at the final change. By the halfway mark of the last quarter, the Doggies had edged their way in front by seven points and looked the stronger of the two teams. However, the Eagles found an extra gear in the final 15 minutes of the match, kicked the next four goals and recorded an 11.14 (80) to 9.14 (68) victory. Teenage star Darcy Warke was superb for the Eagles with two goals and a dominant display, while Todd

account for Langwarrin. The Sharks got away to a wobbly start and were outplayed by the Kangas in the first quarter, however, took advantage of their limited opportunities and went in at the first break ten points up. By half time, the game was over with the Sharks leading by 40 points. Langwarrin rallied in the second half; however, it wasn’t enough to bridge the gap, going down 14.10 (94) to 8.9 (57). Corey McQueen booted three goals for the Sharks while the stars including Ricky Ferraro, Shane McDonald, Anthony Raso, Paul Rebeschini, Dylan Jones and Jackson Casey all dominated. Nick Tuddenham was again in the best for the Kangas in only his fourth game, while usual campaigners in Dan Wehner, Michael Parker and Jarryd Amalfi worked tirelessly. Once again, it has been proven that the Kangas are a long way off the top four sides of the competition. Mt Eliza replaced Langwarrin in the top five after smashing Chelsea to the tune of 63 points. The Redlegs took control of the match early and extended their lead at every change, winning 20.7 (127) to 9.10 (64). Scott Lockwood booted five goals while Benny Lean played his best game for some time with four majors. Bryce Hayes and Zallec White aren’t names we know a lot about but they too were dominant for the Redlegs on Saturday, as were seasoned campaigners Darren Booth and Rohan Heasley. Robbie Lancaster and Todd Gardiner were the best of the Gulls, as was Jason Clark, who rarely plays a bad game. Pines took a while to shake off Karingal on Saturday but still

FRANKSTON YCW Football Club launched an investigation into an incident that saw Josh Westerman left unconscious, carried from the ground and taken away by ambulance, in their match against Bonbeach two weeks ago. There is video of the incident. Despite three field umpires, goal umpires and boundary umpires, a report was not made in the incident. A melee followed the incident and in the melee, Bonbeach defender Jason Ferraro was sent from the field. He was not reported. It is alleged that Ferraro was the

player involved in the Westerman incident. Bonbeach has also launched an investigation into Frankston YCW crowd behaviour at half time and three quarter time. The incident saw MPNFL Legend Kenny Sole, who has a son Jackson running around with the Sharks, assaulted by members of the crowd. It is believed that police charges will be laid in both incidents.

The best players to battle in squash tournament THE Mornington peninsula will be the target of a number of Victoria’s best squash players that have entered The 2014 Mornington Peninsula Open and Graded Squash Championship. Strong teams have been entered from Shepparton and Bendigo to compete against Melbourne and the peninsula’s best. Being a graded event means that players of all levels will compete with people with the same ability. For the top grades however an opportunity exists for men and woman to play Former World number 6 and Australia’s number one ranked female player Kasey Brown. Miss Brown said she was thrilled to come to Dromana and was looking forward to the competition. “It will be an interesting spectacle with a lot of the top men thinking they may have a chance to beat a World ranked player.” “ I would be very surprised if she dropped a game” said the tournament director Mr John Webber who also commented “The prize of a Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet for a long weekend had meant that entries were filling fast”. If you are interested in watching the event, entry is free and the staff at Tonic Gym will make you feel very welcome.

Winning team: Squash champion Kasey Brown with her long time coach Rodney Martin.
