Garden’s sculptural leap into spring SPRING is said to have sprung last Friday 1 September – unless you follow the equinox which is Saturday 23 September – so it seemed an ideal day for the opening of gallery Heronswood. Central to the Dromana gallery’s opening is a three-metre high sculpture by Kate Rohde of the world’s tallest and smelliest flower, the titan arum (Amorphophallus titanium). Heronswood and its famed Diggers Garden in Latrobe Parade celebrated the day with “crudites, bubbles and a garden tour” after the opening by former director of the Adelaide botanic gardens Stephen Forbes and artist Bill Henson. Although wattles have been flowering for months and any number of other plant varieties are set to blossom now spring is here, the famously smelly titan arum flowers every day, all year. “The gallery is really repositioning Heronswood as the flagship home of the rescue of heirloom seeds and understanding in a light-hearted way natural history and what pollination is all about,” Heronswood’s Talei Kenyon said. “As [Diggers Club and Environment trust chairman] Clive Blazey says, seeds are the basis of our life and we will do what is needed to protect their free ownership.” ARTIST Kate Rohde with part of her threemetre high flowering sculpture.

Transport petition stalls Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A PETITION with 1574 signatures urging the state government to review public bus transport on the Mornington Peninsula was knocked back by state parliament last week. Nepean MP Martin Dixon was refused leave to table the petition by the Peninsula Residential Parks and Villages Group because it was “not in the correct form”.

The group’s chairman, Bob Dalmau, said the refusal was a “roadblock but we’ll get around it somehow”. “It is very frustrating; they just threw it out,” he said. “We are doing this for the community which needs more buses down here. “Whole communities at Mornington, Hastings, Dromana and Martha Cove are not being serviced and that’s why we want this review so we can get these sites fixed up.” At the start of their campaign Mr Dalmau and members were pictured

in Main St, Mornington seeking signatures to the petition aimed at ending a “legacy of under-investment in public transport over many years” (“Call for Transport Review” The News, 10/7/2017). The petition was to be presented to Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan, with a request that the review “identify and resolve some very important shortcomings in [bus] services”. “Significant residential and commercial development has occurred over the past 20 years with little or no consider-

ation given to the adjustment of existing public transport bus routes or new services,” Mr Dalmau said at the time. “Our region is home to one of the state’s largest over-60s populations, with one-in-three people in this cohort. “This group – the biggest user of public transport – is poorly serviced.” The Peninsula Residential Parks and Villages Group, which represents the interests of caravan parks and and retirement village residents, asked Mornington Peninsula Shire for help with an advocacy plan to improve public
transport on the peninsula. The shire’s infrastructure strategy acting manager Chris Munro told The News the group had “received advice and [was] now constructing a legally-worded petition to access a wider audience and get more signatures” on the petition. Mr Dalmau last week said the state government was “not listening to us oldies, but we’ve got a lot of votes”. “They don’t know our area and couldn’t care less about us. If we were a marginal seat I’m sure we’d be getting the review.” Continued Page 6

Pound opens with adoption time trial Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE new community animal shelter and pound on Watt Rd, Mornington, includes an updated cattery with separate spaces for 34 cats, and two quarantine rooms said to be industry best practice. Mornington Peninsula Shire says the design of the pound, which opened on Wednesday 23 August after a reported $900,000 revamp, will ensure it “continues to meet its obligations under the code of practice for the management of dogs and cats in shelters and pounds”. It will reduce the potential for disease and assist in the day to day management of the animals. A six-month trial adoption time began last Saturday so visitors can view animals 10am-1pm without an appointment. Previous visiting arrangements had been slammed as unwieldy. Those intending to visit (and which is
still the case for weekday visits) must apply online, receive a confirmation, then fill out paperwork before they can get an appointment time. The shire says the pound is open to the public by appointment almost every day of the year, but a sticking point with some residents has been the difficulty in getting an appointment to see pets supposedly available for adoption, and the “secrecy surrounding the number of animals euthanised”. Save Mornington Pound Animals organiser Rosy Fischer said the group wants to stop cats and dogs being killed at the pound and for the shire to increase its efforts to find new homes for strays. The mayor Cr Bev Colomb said the pound placed a “high priority on the welfare and care for lost pets and endeavours to re-home all suitable, unclaimed animals”. “The shelter ensures pets available for adoption are vet checked, de-sexed, vaccinated, wormed,
temperament tested and micro-shipped,” she said. “Dedicated staff at the shelter endeavour to raise awareness of responsible pet ownership through with the 2000 visitors that come to the facility each year.” Cr Colomb said she looked forward to seeing the Saturday morning trials run “throughout our busiest season”. “Our shire-run facility has been caring for cats, dogs and stray livestock for more than 30 years,” she said. “Last year we successfully reunited more than 800 pets with their owners. A further 573 pets were rescued or adopted into a loving home through the tireless efforts of volunteer animal rescue group partners.” Ms Fischer said the pound had “only three pets up for adoption last week – with no new animals listed for weeks”.

Beach work: Horses were being trained on Balnarring beach at the crack of dawn yesterday (Monday) just hours before Marg Douglas, Geoff Hall, David Gill and Cheryl McDonald roped off sections of sand dune to provide a safe nesting place for red-capped plovers. Pictures: Gary Sissons
Horses roped in to protect plovers Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Mornington Peninsula’s plovers seem destined to be both victims and indicators of the pressures of population. The hooded plover has for years been fighting for its very existence, mainly on the peninsula’s ocean beaches. Its plight is so precarious that dogs have now been permanently
banned on the sand with the Mornington Peninsula National Park. Rope barriers were erected along parts of Balnarring beach in Western Port yesterday to protect red-capped plovers, cousins of the hooded plover. Not regarded nationally as being endangered, the red-capped plovers are rapidly losing ground on the peninsula, again to off-leash dogs and foxes, but also to horses. Horse trainers pay to exercise their
horses on the beach at Balnarring and their presence has become something of a tourist attraction, especially when inquisitive dolphins cruise alongside the swimming steeds. The horses are supposed to be kept on the hard sand, close to the water’s edge. Cr David Gill, who joined Monday’s group of plover protectors in roping off the nesting areas, said there were hoof prints in the sand dunes.
THE RYE HOTEL
“It’s a problem if the horses go in the wrong area. They’re not as scary [to the birds] as dogs and foxes and the birds fly back when they’re near the water,” he said. “The plovers will start nesting in the next few weeks. Their numbers at Balnarring are down to about eight, although I can remember seeing hundreds when I was in my teens and early 20s.” “This area was a haven for birds. Now it’s the same as is happening
elsewhere on the peninsula. There are more people and they’re succumbing to the pressures of population.” Cr Gill said the number of koalas had also diminished at Balnarring “manly because of dogs and fences”. “We have compliance problems at the beach with dogs being let of the leash and horses being ridden into the soft sand areas. And then there are the kite surfers who go very fast too close to the beach.”

China trip seeks new source of power Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au A TRIP to inspect the latest technology being used in China to generate electricity from rubbish and lessen the amount going to landfill is part of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s bid to attain carbon neutrality by 2020. Cr Hugh Fraser said moving to a waste-to-energy system could lead to the shire being able to close its Rye tip and avoid a $2 million a year state tax to keep it open. “The Rye landfill is the shire’s largest contributor to its greenhouse gas and carbon footprint,” Cr Fraser said. He said the only question remaining was when the tip could be closed, which would also save money on opening costly new “waste cells”. “Council has resolved to transition to disposal of its kerbside municipal waste to a waste-to-energy facility when economically available,” Cr Fraser said. “The waste market and the access to such technology is moving quickly. A centre of excellence in the disposal of waste is being developed in South Dandenong [which is] readily accessible to the shire.” He said alternative waste and wasteto-energy technology and plant “is readily available in Europe and now China, but less so on a commercial scale in Victoria”.
Cr Fraser, who left for China last Sunday (2 September) with acting chief operating officer Niall McDonagh and waste services team leader Daniel Hinson, will report back to council within 30 days on “how knowledge gained may influence the future direction of alternate waste technologies in the region and the shire”. The China trip resulted from an invitation from the Metropolitan Waste and Resource Recovery Group (of which the shire is a member) and Greater Dandenong Council, which is also sending a team. The $2500 cost of sending Cr Fraser to China for seven days is the first deduction this term from his $16,000 conferences, training and seminars account. All councillors have access to the same amount, although Cr David Gill – who voted against this week’s China trip – says he will not claim expenses, including travelling. Like all councillors, Cr Gill is paid a $28,000 a year stipend and is provided with a mobile phone and computer. The stipend for the mayor, Cr Bev Colomb, is $90,000 as well as a car. Cr Gill said he believed all the information being sought in China “is available through video conferencing or the internet”. Impetus for the shire to obtain carbon neutrality followed the attendance at the December 2015 United Nations
COP21 climate change conference in Paris by the then mayor Cr Graham Pittock and Cr Fraser. Soon after their return, the shire announced it would close the Rye tip mid-2017, a decision that was overturned in August 2016, with the tip being given a three-year reprieve. The exact “life” of the Rye tip would depend on the establishment of an alternate waste technology, or AWT, facility. The shire also said it would join the MWRRG in tendering for an AWT south east of Melbourne “noting the option and opportunity of locating such a facility at council’s Tyabb waste facility [in McKirdys Rd] adjacent to Western Port Highway”. Background notes provided to councillors stated that it is “very likely” that Melbourne would have just three landfills operating within 15 years, and all west of the city. When arguing for continued use of the Rye tip Cr David Gibb - who did not seek re-election in 2016 - said prolonging its use would not jeopardise the shire’s bid to be carbon neutral. He said claims that it was necessary to close Rye to achieve carbon neutrality had been “a fraud on ratepayers”. Strict controls are being placed on emissions and disposal of ash on the latest incinerators overseas where residual heat is used to either power electricity generators or heat buildings.
High voltage: New sculpture on display alongside Peninsula Link. Picture: Gary Sissons
‘Smashed’ pylon debuts A NEW sculpture has been installed near the Skye Rd alongside Peninsula Link to replace the large ram’s head Rex Australis. Iconoclast — a mock electricity pylon smashed by what looks like a meteor — was put in place last week after Rex’s removal. The artwork by Brisbane-based Michael Riddle is based on “the idea of collapse”. Riddle told ABC radio’s Breakfast show he believed reactions to the sculpture would be “a mixed bag”. “There will be some people who like it and some people who have something negative to say about it.”
Public artworks along Peninsula Link, including “the chrome gnome” at the Cranbourne Rd exit officially called Reflective Lullaby, are privately funded by Peninsula Link owner operator Southern Way. The sculptures are commissioned and owned by McLelland Gallery & Sculpture Park and “retired” artworks including the popular Tree of Life, removed to make way for the chrome gnome in July 2015, are put on display at the Langwarrin sculpture park where entry is free. Peninsula Link artworks are rotated every two years. Neil Walker

NEWS DESK Transport petition stalls in parliament Continued from Page 1 The petition was rejected because, in accordance with strict parliamentary rules, the wording at the top must be reprinted on every page so that those signing can see what they are endorsing. Now, the 1574 signatures on the original will have to be collected again and re-presented on a new petition, which could take several months. Mr Dixon said the refusal was “very disappointing”. “I will inform all the signatories of the petition, especially the ones from the electorate of the Member for Frankston (Labor’s Paul Edbrooke) that parliament has refused leave,” he said. “I certainly support the petition and the words of the petition and, as I said, it is very, very disappointing that it has not been allowed to be tabled.” Electorate office manager and endorsed Liberal candidate for Nepean Russell Joseph said Mr Dixon spoke to the petition in his 90 second Members Statement and then sought leave to table the document “out of respect for the community members who, in good faith, collected those signatures and wanted them presented to the minister”. He said the petition “could easily have been granted but [it] was refused by Labor on political grounds and not by the rules of parliament”. “Mr Dixon has every right - in fact, it is good manners - to seek leave and table a document he is speaking to it,” he said. A reformatted petition will be presented to parliament again in a couple of months, Mr Joseph said.

driver, in his mid-20s, driving erratically and speeding on the wrong side of the road near Bungower Rd, Mornington. “It was extreme behaviour,” Sergeant Box said. Thinking ahead, and anticipating the driver’s route, police set up stopsticks at the bottom of Olivers Hill. “He managed to get around them and continued up Nepean Highway and we terminated the pursuit when he entered the Frankston CBD,” Sergeant Box said. The driver continued up Nepean Highway sideswiping cars until one serious collision forced him to stop. He was then wrestled to the ground and held until could be arrested. Kingston traffic police on Friday night said the man was being interviewed over a range of traffic matters. He was said to live “uptown”.
Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A SPEEDING driver who sideswiped several cars in a wild ride along Nepean Highway from Blairgowrie to Edithvale was later grappled with by members of the public and held until police arrived, Friday 1 September. Sergeant Ray Box said Mornington police began receiving calls from irate motorists about the driver’s behaviour in the Canterbury-Jetty road area of Rosebud at 10.30am. He was allegedly driving on the wrong side of the road and speeding at up to 120kph in 80kph zones. Police unsuccessfully tried to head off the man in a Honda CRV at Safety Beach but he avoided them and took the freeway to Mt Martha where he collided with a pole in Bentons Rd, Mornington, but continued driving. Sergeant Box said police saw the
FIVE teenagers were arrested for defacing a toilet block at Mornington Park with graffiti, Tuesday 22 August. Sergeant Ray Box, of Mornington police, said the 14-16 year olds were given cautions with further inquiries pending. The teens allegedly used shoe polish and ink to daub slogans. Police also arrested and cautioned two boys, aged 13 and 14, for graffiti offences at the Mt Eliza Centre, Jacksons Rd, Mt Eliza, Sunday 20 August. Sergeant Box said up to 10 teenagers were involved in daubing slogans on “brand new walls”.
Burglary links A SERIES of overnight burglaries in Mornington and Mt Martha last week may have been committed by the same offenders, police say. They occurred 27-29 August. In the first incident a passer-by may have “spooked” burglars attempting to break into a Wilsons Rd cafe by smashing glass door panels. They sped off in what’s described as a red hatch. A short time later, a cafe and a milk bar in Dava Drive were broken into and their tills taken – as well as a bag of lollies. A Safety Beach pizza shop and wok restaurant also had tills stolen. Cash and alcohol were stolen from a wine outlet in Mt Eliza, 2.30am, Thursday 24 August. Anyone with information is urged to call Mornington police 5970 4900.

Empowering peninsula’s older people NON-PROFIT group Mentis Assist has its sights on age-friendly Mornington Peninsula as it works to provide support to older people in the community. The 30-year-old group last month received the Age Friendly Local Business Award at the Mornington Peninsula Delys Sargeant Age-Friendly Awards. The awards recognise individuals, clubs, services or businesses that contribute towards a supportive community for older people. They aim to shine a light on older people, promoting respect and an age-friendly community.
programs link older people with mental and physical health services in the area. It works with housing, family, financial, and legal services, community centres, councils, aged care assessment teams, memory and dementia clinics, and social workers. Mr Palioportas said the community had a “responsibility to provide older people with support as they are one of the most valuable yet vulnerable groups”. “During this season of people’s lives, loneliness, disability and mental illness are common,” he said. Details: mentisassist.org.au
“Mentis Assist is the only organisation on the peninsula that provides a range of social group services for over 50s to support their mental and overall health,” CEO Terry Palioportas said. Seniors support groups run five days a week, promoting friendships among those experiencing mental illness, disability, loneliness and isolation, and provide a safe place for older people to discuss issues. “Mentis Assist seeks to empower older people, providing them with the tools and supports to maintain their independence – a core element in wellbeing,” Mr Palioportas said.

Numbers count for injured wildlife
Tennis fun day
A MOTORIST who stopped to help after a kangaroo collided with a car on Mornington-Flinders Rd early Friday morning realised he didn’t know who to call to help the animal in its agony. Wally Sutton and the driver of the car that hit the kangaroo approached the injured animal which had dragged itself off the road and appeared to have broken its hind legs. “It was in agony,” wife Jenny Webber said. “Then the ring-around began: the driver called his wife who suggested the Main Ridge vet’s afterhours contact, who said call the council, the council said call the ranger, the ranger said call the police ... “When my husband left, the distressed driver was calling 000 to see what could be done.” Ms Webber has urged readers to put the Wildlife Victoria contact number 1300 094 535 into their mobile phones. The voluntary organisation will call the nearest volunteer to attend to the injured animal. Mornington Peninsula wildlife help organisation WHOMP can be called any time on 0477 555 611. Peninsula Vet Care East Mornington, on Mornington-Tyabb Rd, assists rescued wildlife. It is open 8am-11pm seven days a week. Call 5975 7766. The vet will also collect injured domestic animals for a fee.

Helping hands for retiring nightjar hollow branches and tree trunks. Owlet-nightjars feed at night on a variety of bugs, especially grasshoppers, beetles and ants. They play an important role in maintaining a healthy ecosystem in our natural environment. The birds mate for life, lay three-five white rounded eggs and raise one clutch a season. Their preferred habitat is any tree-studded area with suitable hollows.
BIRD watchers and environmentalists are concerned about the lack of recent sightings of the Australian owlet-nightjar (Aegotheles chrisoptus) on the peninsula. The owlet-nightjar is the smallest nocturnal bird in Australia, has cat-like whiskers and measures about 23cm long. It prefers to live in woodland and is usually difficult to see during the day as it hides in

Members of the Natured Kids’ Junior Landcare Group are excited because a local bushwalker last week filmed one at The Briars, Mt Martha, sunning itself at the entrance to a hollow in a tree. It is evident owlet nightjars are vanishing in populated areas, although they are adaptable and have been spotted in urban areas near remnant bushland.

China trip another misuse of ratepayers’ money I am again amazed at the ratepayer-funded waste management trip (“Shire team’s waste trip to China” The News 29/8/17). Surely Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors took note of the backlash they received following the [attendance by two councillors and a staff member] the [2015] climate change talks in Paris. Cr Hugh Fraser needs to understand that this is ratepayers’ hard earned money. I also doubt whether this type of activity is included in a council’s mandate. The information on waste management and, in fact, climate change can be readily obtained as I understand it from government sources who research these issues for the benefit of the country. This council needs to understand that ratepayers’ money is not for their personal use but for the benefit of their constituents. Graham Lee, McCrae Editor: Costs of the trip to China by Cr Fraser and two shire executives has been approved by council and is being conducted in association with the City of Greater Dandenong and the Metropolitan Waste and Resource Recovery Group (of which the shire is a member).
Look closer to home
Here we go again, milking the shire cow. Two council staff members and a temporary elected councillor from the Mornington Peninsula Shire are off to China to study incinerators, costing us $7500 and proving that the shire has plenty of money to spare (“Shire team’s waste trip to China” The News 29/8/17). Our money. That’s the second trip for Cr Hugh Fraser, the last one being to Paris. China, with a totalitarian central government, is not the place to study incinerators, everything there is non-Australian, even the garbage is
different. Australia, a largely democratic country with independent environmental protection agencies would be the first place to visit. Eight councils in Perth have combined to commission the building of $400 million incinerator at Kwinana; the winning contractor apparently using world’s best practice and seemingly highly competent and experienced. Check it out on the internet. At that price state government intervention and, no doubt, subsidies and concessions would be required. Proper engineers would need to study the negative impacts including carbon emissions, and recovery of deadly toxic gases and ash. I have no doubt at all that Perth has already done all of this and evaluated all proposals. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Ridiculous tree loss Thank you Elizabeth Albiston for your letter about the Safety Beach tree terrorists (“Tree terrorists” Letters 15/8/17). In Seahaven Way, Safety Beach, three trees were removed with protruding stumps left to trip over. In no way were these trees a danger to road traffic unless, Tolkien–like, they walked to the centre of the road. Letters to our Mornington Peninsula Shire bureaucracy were to no avail. Immediately they leap to the defence of staff and contractors. Mistakes must not be admitted. What is really ridiculous is that straight after professional gardeners had restored our landscaped nature strips, including trimming trees for safety reasons, the terrorists struck the next day. Blind Freddie would not have wielded his chain saw as he would have seen the work had already been done.
To use road safety as an excuse for tree vandalism makes a mockery of our by council’s local laws. Stan McCredden, Safety Beach
Love lost on pollies Loves makes a way. Not with (Liberal Flinders MP] Greg Hunt, it doesn’t. And the Labor party is not any better when it comes to the treatment of asylum seekers (“Police praised by evicted church group” The News 29/8/17). I take my hat off to the compassionate activists from Love Makes a Way for their persistent activism. I fear only from previous experience with Greg Hunt on environmental issues like Adani, the southern brown bandicoot, logging Tasmanian forests, or now in his new [health] portfolio, his government’s efforts to stop home visits by GPs, that his pretence of listening to constituents is just that, a slight of hand. As usual, he’s a good team player, using the old “I’m just following orders and following party line” excuse very well. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach
Resident with feeling Desmond Bellamy, special projects coordinator PETA Australia writes about the cognitive abilities of fish, in some respects surpassing those of dogs and some primates (“Fish have feelings” Letters 29/8/17). Let us hope he knows his fish, because come the dreaded extra boat ramp at Rye those local fish might need to vamoose, make themselves scarce, as indeed we Rye residents will do, come the big noise tsunami, no thanks to our local Rye councillor. Cliff Ellen, Rye
Unwelcome neighbours I write in regard to Mel Farnbach’s letter (“Protests show home isn’t always where the heart is” Letters 29/8/17) in which decries the actions of Brighton residents protesting about the proposed construction of a nine storey building to house the homeless. No doubt Mel would welcome a construction of similar magnitude next door in Balnarring? I would suggest no one, no matter how compassionate, would welcome a nine storey building in their suburb, whether it be Brighton, Balnarring or anywhere else. Denis Mason, Sorrento
Man of his time: Painter John Singleton Copley is the subject of the talk.
Revolution artist AUSTRALIAN historian Emeritus Professor Peter McPhee AM will talk on “A Painter in Revolutionary Times: John Singleton Copley and the American Revolution, 1760-1780” at the Friday 8 September meeting of the Mornington Peninsula Australian and Decorative Fine Arts Society. Members of ADFAS learn about the arts at the hour-long lectures at the Peninsula Community Theatre, Wilsons Rd, Mornington, 5.30pm, Fridays. Professor McPhee’s lecture will examine the harrowing story of an outstanding portraitist caught in the divisions of the revolution. Copley, born in 1783 to poor Irish parents in Boston, became a highly sought after painter of the professional and mercantile elites of this small colonial port. Copley found himself caught between friends and family and, by 1774, had to make a choice which would change his life tragically and permanently. The cost of the lectures to nonmembers is $20. New members welcome. Details: call 97872092.

OUR feet and legs are vital for mobility and balance and are the basis of most of our daily activities, but we don’t really appreciate all the work they do until something goes wrong. To help you start the year off on a good foot, we asked the experts at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics to shed some light on some of the most common foot and leg concerns and things to be aware of: n The most common foot & leg concerns include: knee pain, injuries and arthritis; shin pain; ankle pain, forefoot pain and heel pain (often misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis). n Many conditions are misdiagnosed and incorrectly treated, so its important to find an experienced musculoskeletal or sports podiatrist to assist. n Bad foot posture can continually pull our posture out of alignment, which can contribute to postural aches and pains. n Early symptoms for diabetes, arthritis, nerve and circulatory problems often show themselves in the feet. n Scientific research clearly demonstrates the direct effect chronic foot pain can have upon both physical and mental health, partially due to the high amount of nerve endings in the feet. n Traditional treatments options such as cortisone, long-term anti-inflammatory medications and joint arthroscopies are now outdated and have been proven to delay healing and actually cause further tissue damage. n A new era of medicine is now taking over from the flawed pharmaceutical approach – cellular and biological medicine is providing us with natural, safe and effective medical alternatives and has been adopted into mainstream medical practice. Prolotherapy, PRP (platelet
rich plasma) and stem cell therapy are assisting many to avoid surgery, joint replacements and eliminate the prolonged use of medications. n Foot and leg problems left untreated usually get worse, however most foot & leg concerns can be addressed relatively easily and effectively with appropriate treatment. “People often endure painful conditions for far too long. They assume nothing can be done or do not receive the appropriate treatments vital for successful, long-term healing,” says Foot & Leg Pain Clinics musculoskeletal Podiatrist, Dr. Tim Kirwan. “With the use of new cellular medicine combined with biomechanical strategies we can now aid pain, increase mobility, repair soft tissue and regenerate joints to assist injuries and degenerative conditions such as arthritis, naturally.” If you need assistance for any foot or leg pain, Foot & Leg Pain Clinics have convenient clinic locations across Melbourne including Mt. Eliza and Rosebud. Mention this article when booking for $50 OFF initial consultations. Call 1300 328 300
HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS
Caring for carers at St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital A CARDIAC event can be a lifechanging occurrence in a person’s life. While the initial incident can be frightening it then often involves a significant period of rehabilitation to get back to work, exercise and all the things you enjoy doing! One of the lesser-considered impacts can be on those who are caring for the patients. Wives, husbands, partners, daughters/ sons, or other family members can often find their own lives transformed, as they are required to provide support to their recovering loved-one. Being thrust into life as a carer also has its own challenges. St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital provides a Cardiac Rehabilitation Program for people who have had an acute heart event. The program provides information, and guidance on how to recover from a heart event and improve an individual’s quality of life. The twice-weekly sessions combine exercise with education in a group setting. Family members and carers are also very welcome to attend the program and participate in the education sessions. The program is coordinated by our specialist Cardiac Rehabilitation Nurse, Emma Boston but includes expertise from our in-house physiotherapists, occupational therapists, exercise physiologist, doctors, socials workers and dietitian. This Multidisciplinary Team’s method combined with their approach to each patient and carers requirements, ensures the
patient’s individual needs are met and treatments initiated as required. Beginning in 2017 Emma collaborated with the Pastoral Care team to introduce the provision of a session for carers only, concurrently with the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program but in a different space within the hospital. Carers could relax knowing that their loved one was being cared for by the specialist nurse, and then spend the time connecting and being supported by our Pastoral Care team. This is how the Cardiac Carers’ High Tea came into being! The aim of the Carers’ High Tea is to create an ambient experience, so a quiet room with comfortable chairs, away from the busy gym, with a cuppa is the key. The carers group does not have a formal ‘program’ however the conversation is gently facilitated by our Pastoral Practitioners to enable carers to explore their own experience of being a carer – both the challenges and the joys! The opportunity to meet and share with others in a similar situation provides support in knowing they are ‘not alone’ in their feelings and situation. The word ‘exhausted’ is used frequently to describe how they are feeling. The Carers’ session is timed to conclude so they can then join in the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program education session with their loved one.
As a result of the introduction of the Cardiac Carer’s High Tea, patients report they are appreciative that their Cardiac Carer could also receive some care and attention; with both patient and carer, each having reasons to attend the program. Participants and patients have reported a 97% reduction in Carer distress. St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital places high importance on whole person care – and this includes both patients and their families. As a result, there is no cost for carers to attend the Cardiac Carers High Tea. The Cardiac Carers’ High Tea is now a permanent feature of the Cardiac Rehabilitation program! How do you attend our hospital? Inpatients – Choose us to provide your rehabilitation after your acute hospital stay or you can come directly from home if you have a referral from your GP or Specialist. Once we receive your referral, one of our Rehabilitation Assessment Nurses will visit you to plan your stay with us. Outpatients: A referral from your GP or Specialist is required. Please direct all referrals to: St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital 255-265 Cranbourne Road, Frankston 3199 General telephone: 9788 3333 Referral Phone: 9788 3380 Referral Fax: 9788 3304

Future plan has no port for sub Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au PLANS to build a maritime centre at Hastings centred on the Otama submarine are not included in draft plans for the foreshore because they require state and federal government approvals. The draft Hastings Foreshore Precinct Plan designed to “establish a consistent identity” for the Hastings foreshore from Hodgins Rd in the north to Reid Pde in the south - is now on public exhibition and open for public comment. Investigations conducted into forming the draft plan included consultations with 21 groups, organisations and government departments, but not the proponents of the maritime centre, the Western Port Oberon Association. The association’s name derives from the Oberon class submarine, the Otama, which has been lying at anchor near Crib Point for well over a
decade. The original plan was for the submarine to be brought ashore at Hastings, but lack of government backing led to the association now wanting to locate the maritime centre on the outer wall of the Western Port Marina. The shire’s property and strategy manager Yasmin Woods said the maritime centre project was not included in the draft foreshore strategy because it was a “major undertaking” that required state or federal government approval. She said members of the Oberon association had “put their case” to council officers at a public drop in session on 1 June. “The association expressed a strong interest in establishing a marine centre next to the marina breakwater, and the project team has taken into account the views that have been put forward,” Ms Woods said. “This is a major undertaking and given the current status and extent of further work required has not been included as a recommended measure
within the document. “Council is only the committee of management, a proposal of this nature would require state or federal government approval.” The association runs the Victorian Maritime Centre at Crib Point and wants to bring the Otama and the former Port Phillip Sea Pilots’ tender and training vessel the M V Wyuna alongside the marina’s breakwater as a major tourist attraction. The association’s website says a “permanent site [for the Otama] has been announced on the outer seawall of the Hastings Marina”. The website also quotes a 12-year-old report as estimating the relocated maritime centre would attract 50,000 visitors a year, employ “around 40 people” and have annual revenue of about $4.5 million. A public meeting will be held to discuss the plan during its four-week exhibition.
Silver in the bays THE State of the Bays website has won silver at the 2017 Government Design Awards in the category of Digital Government Services. The website, launched in December 2016, uses plain English to disseminate key facts and figures about the functions of flora fauna in Port Phillip and Western Port. The website provides an interactive report which provides a baseline study of the health of both bays, giving a stocktake of their health, including water quality, seagrass and fish species. He site looks at a penguin colony at St Kilda and provides opportunities for the community to get involved in citizen science activities. It also plays bird songs and videos of animals in their natural environment. The Government Design Awards were created to acknowledge design and innovation projects within the public sector and are open to local, state and federal governments. In the Digital Government Services design category, VCAT won gold and the silver was shared with the City of Ryde Public Website and Community Engagement Portal.

Cerberus staff picket over pay rates ABOUT 40 cooks and catering staff formed a picket line outside HMAS Cerberus last week (Monday 28 August) to protest over what they claim is substandard pay. The full and part-time staff, engaged by labour-hire contractor Broadspectrum, staged the protected industrial action, 5am-1pm. This meant senior Cerberus staff had to be rostered on to prepare and serve breakfast and lunch for the Crib Point base’s 800 trainees. The striking cooks and caterers say they have
no grievances with the naval base – only its labour-hire contractor. The dispute comes after failed enterprise bargaining talks between Broadspectrum and the Australian Workers’ Union. State secretary Ben Davis said the contractor was offering less-than-award wages. “We have tried negotiating with them for the past 18 months and the picket line is borne out of frustration,” he said. “Our members are strong and united and the likelihood is that the dispute will spread to other
bases, such as Puckapunyal, Victoria Barracks, Simpson Barracks and RAAF Williams at Point Cook. “So far we have had no response from management but we are always open to discussions.” A Broadspectrum spokesman said the company had been “negotiating in good faith with employees and would continue to do so”. “This matter does not impact any service that Broadspectrum provides,” he said.

Civic help for volunteers
Safety for riders COMMENTS are being sought on a proposal for vehicles to make way for horses on a section of Derril Rd, Tuerong, running between the Devilbend and Bittern reservoir reserves. The unmade section of road connects Stumpy Gully and Derril roads and the closure will apply from the entrance to Bittern Reservoir through to Derril Rd. Mornington Peninsula Shire wants to install “lockable removable barriers” and horse cavelettis (parallel poles laid horizontally above the ground) at either end of the road. Safety concerns for horse riders on the road were flagged in the shire’s 2014-2019 equestrian and mountain bike strategy. The barriers will allow pedestrians on Hodgins Rd but restrict vehicles. The shire’s proposal can be seen at mornpen.vic.gov.au/haveyoursay and in each shire office. The deadline for comments is Friday 8 September. Submissions should be sent to Matthew Ashdown, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, Private Bag 1000, Rosebud 3939 or email: traffic.management@ mornpen.vic.gov.au

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Things I’ve learned from a Two Year Old By Stuart McCullough IT was a low-key kind of birthday. Which, for someone turning two, is something of an achievement. Fact is, our dog Fozzie rarely makes a fuss. There were no gentle reminders, no birthday list. The days were not marked off on the calendar. Granted, the lack of opposable thumbs might have played a part in it, but she really seemed to keep a lid on things. Indeed, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it as just another day, choosing to stick to her routine rather than put on a song and dance. I think the number of nicknames you have says much about the affection in which you’re held. Suffice to say, our dog Fozzie has a good deal many more nicknames than she’s had birthdays. There’s the simplicity of ‘the Fozz’, the futuristic ‘Fozzatron’, the mildly intimidating ‘Fozzinator’, the self-explanatory ‘Fozztastic’ and the name that really should come with a cape and a small black mask; ‘El Fozzo’. What’s interesting is that these are used not just by us but by friends, neighbors and various service providers also. It’s worth noting at this point that I have no nicknames. None at all. Each day begins the same way. When I get up and go for a run, she might lift a lazy eye but is otherwise unmoved. However, when I get back and start making breakfast, she always comes into the kitchen, at which point I let her outside. We then eat together, before she wanders off to get a little more shut-eye. After she eats her dry food, she likes to bug me for something else to eat. This, in our house,
has become known as ‘carrot time’. Oddly, ‘carrot time’ has it’s own theme music. As soon as I start a rendition of the ‘carrot time’ theme song, the dog goes and sits on her mat and waits. Dogs can be smart. Fozzie has
learned that certain items are of great importance and that if she takes them between the teeth and makes a run for it, chances are someone will end up in pursuit. Shoes, it seems, are a specialty. Various remote controls
have been kidnapped against their will from the couch and sequestered somewhere deep in the wilds of the backyard. Once, I couldn’t find my watch. Believing that I had misplaced it , I thought nothing more of it until it dawned at me whilst at work – the dog may have stolen it. This was later confirmed at home that evening when the dog appeared with my watch hanging from its lips, expecting that I should chase her. The dog has a lot of stuffed toys. I’m almost ashamed to say that I bought none of them. They form part of the broader Fozzie universe and time has imbued each of them with their own distinct personalities as well as various rips, stains and tears. There’s Lord Ducky Duckton, who has a face that squeaks when you squeeze it. (Come to think of it, my face would probably squeak upon squeezing too.) There’s Justin Beaver and a creature my wife bought at the opp shop for two bucks simply known as ‘The Skanky Wombat’. The dog really comes in to her own when we go walking. Being a larger dog, she’s still a bit of a rock star and seems to know who’s interested in giving her a pat and those who’d prefer to keep her distance. Not that she doesn’t have her fair share of enemies. Although she’s an incredibly friendly creature, she seems to have an acute aversion to high-vis work wear. Mostly this manifests itself in frenzied barking whenever the mail arrives. My notebook bears the scars of this enmity after I was foolish enough to be holding her leash whilst drinking coffee at
a local café. The postman turned up and the dog had a lot to say, all whilst pulling on the lead and ensuring that the best part of a skinny flat white ended up spilled across the pages. When I arrive home at night, the dog is often waiting at the front door. Apparently, she takes up position as the sun goes down and remains vigilant until my return. It makes for quite a greeting. She has, however, continued to attack the occasional book. Most recently, she chowed down Bruce Catton’s single volume history of the American Civil War, leaving the shredded text completely unreadable. Which is terrible because now I don’t know how it ends. She’s also chewed on some Clive James and had just started to nibble of Tim Rogers’ new memoir before I intervened. She has, at least, got great taste in books. She may be two, but we’ve had her for an even shorter time than that. Fozzie is our first grown up dog and the first time I’ve ever had a pet that was allowed indoors. I’ll be honest and say that things haven’t turned out as I expected. In my mind, I thought the dog would live out in the backyard. Instead, it seems she’s pretty much in charge of the house. The dog has, however, changed our lives for the better. I now routinely speak to strangers when out walking, something that would have been unthinkable in the pre-Fozz era. I look forward to an enthusiastic canine greeting when I come home. Or when I get up. Or when I do pretty much anything. So thanks, Fozzatron. And happy birthday. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Memorial unveiled for killed pedestrian in Mornington Compiled by Cameron McCullough Unveiling of Alfred E. Bates Memorial. In July last, at the suggestion of Mr Jas. Noble, who had the approval of the Mechanics’ Institute committee, the Mornington Progress Association (says the Post) resolved to erect a clock in the facade of the Mechanics’ hall as a public appreciation of their late hon. Treasurer, and as a lasting testimonial to his many estimable qualities as an exemplary citizen. The progress association appointed the following gentlemen as a committee to give effect to the resolution: Messrs P. McArthur, R. Nunn, P. Olson, Jas Noble and F. M. Linley (hon treasurer), and no difficulty was experienced in raising the amount required. On Tuesday, at 4.30 pm, about 200 persons were assembled by public announcement to witness the ceremony of unveiling the clock and a handsome brass tablet as a consummation of the work performed on behalf of the subscribers. A dais was erected under the clock, in front of which were arranged two rows of chairs for the accommodation of the ladies of the Red Cross Society and the public Senator Geo. Fairbairn was invited to perform the ceremony, but was unable to be present. Mr. L. J. Flannagan, president of the progress association, consequently was selected and presided at the gathering. The Rev S. Sandiford, Mr F. M. Linley (hon treasurer), Crs R. Nunn, J. G. Barrett and P. McArthur, and Revs N. Webster and T. H. Woodford occupied seats on the platform.
Mrs and Misses Bates were present. Mr F. M. Linley submitted a financial statement showing 102 subscribers responsible for £40 19s. The disbursements were as follows: - Cost of clock and inscription plate, £32 15s; freight and incidental expenses (including ladder) £3 4s, and the balance to be kept in reserve for repairs and maintenance. He then delivered a panegyric which spoke eloquently of the many public services through which they were indebted to the late hon treasurer, Mr Alfred E. Bates, who was a high-minded, great-hearted and openhanded citizen. Judged by the highest standard of commercial ability and integrity he was a top-quality man; he was so trusted, and his scrupulous exactness in business matters were so well known that almost every public body in the town sought him as its treasurer; he was gifted, with imagination and saw the “Mornington beautiful” of the future and worked for it as few would have done. His sympathetic heart went out to our heroes in the trenches and he started a “tobacco fund” now being continued by his daughters. The Rev S. Sandiford spoke of the late Mr Bates as a personal friend whose unselfishness and moral rectitude proved his exceptional worth. He regretted that too often the good works of men departed were forgotten and their names lost in oblivion, and that their value and worth in this life were not fully appreciated until after their death. In the history of Mornington there had been a few such, and he was particularly pleased to be present on
this occasion at the public recognition by a grateful community of the work done by The late Mr Bates. Mr Flannagan spoke feelingly in sympathy with the remarks of the previous speakers, and concluded by unveiling the clock and then the tablet. Before dispersing the National Anthem was sung. Following is the inscription on the tablet, which is surmounted by a small shield bearing the monogram of the association. “M.P.A.” This Clock was erected by public subscription to commemorate the many services rendered to the town by Alfred E. Bates, Esq., J.P. August 1917. *** Our Letter Box. RE MOTOR. FATALITY AT FRANKSTON. TO THE EDITOR Sir, - In reference to the death of my son “Toby” who was killed by a motor car, on the Hastings road, Frankston, on Sunday last, I desire to express the deep gratitude of my wife, family and self, to the people of Frankston, Langwarrin Camp and the surrounding district, for what they have done for us. Words can not express what we feel for the kindness shown, the more so as it came from those from whom we least expected it. - Yours etc. FRANK F. ADDICOTT. *** Our Letter Box. RE MOTOR.

Swayne sacked after Pines loss PENINSULA LEAGUE
By Toe Punt PINES Football Club appointed sacked Sorrento coach Nick Jewell as its senior coach on the night that it bowed out of the 2017 Peninsula Division finals race against Bonbeach. Jewell was sounded out for the job after Pines lost four games in a row after Aaron Edwards went down with a knee injury. He was informed of his appointment in writing following Pines’ loss to Bonbeach on Saturday night and it was confirmed with him on Sunday. However, coach Pat Swayne was not aware of his sacking until he arrived at the football to call on RPP FM on Sunday afternoon. In a shocking turn of events, yours truly inadvertently told Swayne of his sacking when he arrived at the ground. A great supporter and admirer of Swayne’s work over many years, I simply wanted to console him on a day he was committing to do special comments on radio. On hearing the news, Swayne contacted club president Jeff Svigos immediately, only to be told again that the decision was not final. However, Jewell confirmed later on Sunday afternoon that he had been given and signed a contract and that his appointment was “definite”. Jewell was strongly rumoured to be coaching Karingal next season and this was a fact, with an announcement organised for the RPP Footy Show. However, Pines’ swooped with an offer and Karingal president Troy Cal-
lahan was notified via text message by Jewell on Sunday morning that he had accepted the role with Pines. But back to the footy and Bonbeach beat Pines for the first time in three years. Since Sharks’ coach Steve Hughes arrived at the club at the beginning of the 2015 season, his side had never been able to beat the Pythons. However, on Saturday at Chelsea, the Sharks were able to boot the final three goals of the game to record a narrow and tough nine-point victory, 11.10 (76) to 9.13 (67). It was a game of two halves with 17 of the 20 goals coming from one end of the ground, such was the wind advantage. Bonbeach could only manage one goal against the breeze in the opening quarter while the Pythons booted two against it in the second quarter. There wasn’t a goal kicked against the wind in the second half. Pines led by 14 points at quarter time and by 12 points at three quarter time. A seven-goal second quarter saw Bonbeach lead by a game-high 18 points at the major interval, while they managed three goals to a point in the final term. Shane McDonald starred for the Sharks with four goals while Dylan Jones, who lowered his colors the last time the sides met, was outstanding. Gavin Vassallo also showed his class and experience in big games with a flawless display and Jackson Casey was also at his best. Steve Hughes said before the game
on the RPP Footy Show that his side needed to bounce back this week after a ‘poor showing’ against Edithvale the week before. “I went through the tapes and I found only five players who did what they should have last week. That means there were 17 that didn’t,” Hughes said. I had plenty of text messages after last week apologising for their performance. I didn’t want any more apologies,” Hughes said. Swayne said prior results had little to do with determining the result of a final. “We hadn’t been able to beat Mt Eliza for years either and knocked them out last week,” Swayne said. It makes little difference what our previous results were against Bonbeach, we started the match nil-all. “We were beaten by a better side today,” Swayne said. Nick Boswell capped off an outstanding season for the Pythons with another dominant display while Dylan Smilie was superb in the ruck against Jones. Shane Waterstone booted three goals. On Sunday, Frankston YCW advanced the Grand Final after beating Edithvale-Aspendale by 17 points. The Stonecats set up the win with a five goal to two first quarter. Edithvale trailed by 28 points at three quarter time and kicked the first five points of the last quarter, before finishing with 1.6 to a point in the last. The Eagles will play Bonbeach on Sunday at Frankston Park in the Preliminary Final.

Sharks steamroll Buds after a flying start NEPEAN LEAGUE
By Toe Punt SORRENTO stormed into the 2017 MPNFL Nepean Division grand final on Saturday with a crushing victory over Rosebud. Kicking with the aid of a five goal breeze in the opening quarter, the Sharks put Rosebud to the sword early, kicking its first goal inside 30 seconds from the first bounce and finishing the quarter with eight. At quarter time, the game was done, 8.7 (55) to no score. One Sorrento supporter said at the first change; “I wish it was a grand final, we could have a few beers now”, while a second supporter said “I think this is the best side I have seen in all of my time at the club.” To make matters worse for Rosebud, star youngster Daniel Wilson popped a shoulder and was taken to hospital at quarter time. The Sharks made five changes to the team that lost to Rosebud in the final home and away game of the season. Collingwood premiership player Chris Dawes, star key back Aaron Paxton, dependable defender Ryan Potter and exciting youngsters Zac Byrns and Chad Harris all came into the team. Dawes booted four goals for the afternoon, however, took enormous pressure off Leigh Poholke (five goals) and Nick Corp (three goals). Luke Tapscott absolutely dominated in the middle of the ground, along with skipper James Hallahan. They were given first use of the footy from Ryan Williams, who had the better of

Ben Dwyer in the ruck. Absolute talent aside, the Sharks attack of the footy was ferocious and Rosebud was under enormous pressure from the first bounce. Skipper James Hallahan said on the RPP Footy Show before the game that his side was “jumping out of its skin to play”. There was certainly plenty of evidence in that. Rosebud finished with 4.7 (31) to Sorrento’s 18.14 (122). Jake Corrin booted two goals for the Buds and was his side’s best player, along with Sean Downie, while Lachy Mew did a great job on Corp and Tommy Stoffels took another major step in his development. Bart Wallace also did a good job on Dawes after he booted three first-quarter goals. Rosebud coach Adrian McBean said before the game that his side would find it tough with Jackson McRae (hamstring) not playing. “Jackson not coming up wasn’t great timing given Dawes came back in,” McBean said. Rosebud will play Frankston Bombers in the Preliminary Final on Saturday at Frankston Park after the Bombers crushed Hastings by more than 10 goals, 14.17 (101) to 4.7 (31). Jason Kingsbury was the best player on the ground for the Bombers with five goals. It was Hastings premiership coach Brendan Dunne’s last day at the helm with Ricky Ferraro taking over in 2018.

Langy NPL-bound, last chance for Skye glory SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN clinched the State 1 South-East championship with a 3-1 win over Clifton Hill at Lawton Park on Saturday. It was an historic moment as Langy became the first local club to win the right to compete in Victoria’s elite National Premier League competition. Langy started the day two points clear of title challenger Mornington but Langy’s win and Mornington’s 0-0 draw at home to Malvern City clinched Gus Macleod’s first title triumph since 2004 and ended Mornington’s chances of an unprecedented State 1 threepeat. Nerves were eased at Lawton Park when Alex Metcalfe’s shot was deflected past keeper Chris Davis by a Clifton Hill defender in the 63rd minute. But Langy fans were back on tenterhooks a minute later when Andrew Goff was allowed to stroll through the Langy defence and hit a low shot from the left of the area past diving Langy keeper Robbie Acs for the equaliser. Langy star Connor Belger was brought down inside the area in the 73rd minute and Metcalfe converted the resultant penalty and three minutes into time added Belger’s low left-foot strike from the edge of the area sealed the issue. Langy players, coaching staff and supporters mingled together in the centre of the pitch until the result came through from the Mornington match and once it did they celebrated in style. It was a fitting way for veteran goalscorer Caleb Nicholes to play his last home match having announced his retirement some time ago and no doubt he’ll figure prominently in next weekend’s final league game of the season. Mornington’s failure to put Malvern keeper Jamie Greygoose under the cosh was to prove costly. Home team keeper Kris McEvoy charged off his line in the 8th minute but didn’t win the ball and ex-Mornington player Brad Blumenthal couldn’t control his shot towards the unguarded goal. In the 58th minute Mornington winger Keegan Ziada put Sammy Orritt through but Orritt blasted his shot over the bar and in the 68th minute an ineffective punch from McEvoy fell to the feet of Adam McKeon who shot wide. Malvern defender Ryan Ratcliffe was forced to slide down and clear following a Ziada cross from the left

Picture: Gemma Sliz in the 71st minute and Ken Kilmurray’s cross from the right in the 84th minute was headed high and wide by Blumenthal at the back post. In the 91st minute Wayne Gordon swung over a corner from the left as Mornington players queued up at the back post only for substitute Nathan Smith to sky his first-time volley. When referee Ioannis Zisis blew for full-time Mornington gaffer Adam Jamieson sank to his haunches knowing that his arch rival had claimed the ultimate prize. Peninsula Strikers have dug a huge hole for themselves after Sunday’s 4-0 loss at home against North Caulfield and are now staring relegation from State 2 South-East squarely in the face. The damage was done in the second half as North Caulfield will o’ the wisp Yonnie Lipshatz ran amok with goals in the 61st and 88th minutes and an assist for Oran Harel’s goal in the 79th minute. Benji Schneider was North Caulfield’s other scorer. Seaford’s State 2 South-East season of misery continued with a 7-0 loss at home to Berwick City on Saturday while Frankston Pines went down 2-1 away to Heatherton United on Saturday night. Skye United is set for a State 3 South-East promotion showdown against Brandon Park after a comfortable 3-0 away win over Collingwood City last weekend.

Brandon Park defeated Brighton 3-2 but Skye clings on to second spot with a plus 32 goal difference over Brandon Park’s plus 31 goal difference. Skye winger Jason Nowakowski was brought down by Collingwood custodian David Herman in the 5th minute and Skye captain Mark O’Connor converted from the spot to make it 1-0. In the 10th minute a bizarre altercation between an assistant referee and the Collingwood coach in the technical area resulted in substitute Bailey Reid being sent off from the bench. It took until the 42nd minute for Skye to strike again as Nowakowski sent through striker Daniel Attard who made no mistake to make it 2-0. From the restart O’Connor won possession and his deflected through ball found Attard one-on-one again and the big striker curled his finish around Collingwood keeper David Herman to make it 3-0. From that point on the result was never in doubt and Skye keeper Jonathon Crook spectacularly tipped over a long range drive late in the contest which was destined for the top corner, a save that may prove crucial to the season’s outcome. Rosebud Heart lost 2-0 away to Harrisfield Hurricanes on Saturday but a bigger loss was the announcement from senior coach Scott Morrison that he would be stepping down at season’s end.
“It’s been an amazing two years at the Heart. It is a fantastic club with fantastic people and we achieved unbelievable things last year then reached our goal this year of staying up,” said Morrison. “We have had seven players out from the start of the season, six of them with season-ending injuries and I firmly believe if they had stayed healthy we would’ve been in the top three. “The reason for stepping down was mostly based on family as the time that goes into coaching is hours upon hours and in the last two years my son has gone from knee height to hip height and I feel that it just flew past me. “You never say never when it comes to next season but a rest first and some family time and then we’ll see what happens.” Six minutes into Saturday’s game Harrisfield took the lead after a loose ball was hit sweetly from just over 20 metres by Nicholas Corsini straight into the top corner. After that it was predominantly one-way traffic with gun scorer Dave Greening unusually failing to convert three clear-cut chances. Then a long ball by Harrisfield in the 34th minute wasn’t properly cleared by Callum Richardson allowing a Harrisfield player to break through into a one-on-one with Heart keeper Sean Skelly before passing to Antonio Bruno who finished into a open net.
Bruno was clearly offside but the assistant referee failed to flag and the goal stood. Heart continued to dominate possession in the second half but had no joy in front of goal. Monash Uni easily accounted for visitor Baxter 4-1 in their State 4 South fixture on Saturday. There was little to report from a Baxter perspective other than a left hook that Conor McGregor would have been proud of which escaped the notice of the match officials. Alan Lipsett scored for Baxter. Somerville Eagles went down 5-0 in their State 5 South away clash with Rowville Eagles last weekend while Southern United came away from Olympic Village on Saturday with a 2-1 win over Heidelberg United in their NPLW fixture. Rita Mankowska gave the home team a 15th minute lead but Southern’s Mikhaila Bowden equalised with a fine individual effort six minutes later. The winner came in the 81st minute via an excellent interpassing move involving Courtney Heuston, Elisabeth Rovers and Jessica Au with Southern captain Candy Ferreyra-Bas finishing in style with a firm strike into the roof of the net. Earlier in the day Southern’s championship winning under-13s tuned up for their looming finals campaign with a 2-1 win against Heidelberg. Candy Kilderry and league top scorer Rhys McKenna scored in the second half to put Southern in control while Heidelberg’s response came from the penalty spot through Olivia Triantafillidis. Southern’s under-15s drew 1-1 with Mackenzie Hicks getting Southern’s equaliser after Rosie Thyer had given Heidelberg a half-time lead while the under-18s went down 1-0 to Heidelberg whose winner came from Chloe Romero.

Community rallies for junior player By Ben Triandafillou THE Better Tennis community donned footy guernseys last week in support of one of their junior players who earlier this year was diagnosed with leukaemia. Combining with their ‘Epic Rally Week’ fundraiser and the Fight Cancer Foundation’s ‘Footy Colours Week’, Better Tennis raised more than $5000 in support of eight-year-old Dzan Tanovic, with more donations to be counted. Tanovic was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in February and has been in hospital ever since undergoing bone marrow transplants. The cancer progressed quickly with signs showing almost immediately, according to Mt Eliza tennis coach David Laird. “We had a tennis lesson on a Thursday early in the year where he looked a bit fatigued but I just put it down to him starting back at school,” he said. “He came back the following day and looked a little worse. You could tell he just wasn’t himself.”
The next week Tanovic was diagnosed with the cancer. Laird said Tanovic had always been a strong boy but “you wouldn’t even be able to tell what Dzan has been going through if you didn’t know otherwise”. “I talked to him on Tuesday and he seems like he’s coping pretty well – he’s a super tough kid,” Laird said. “It’s great to see the whole community getting behind him. “I’ve coached him since he was in prep and he really is one of the keenest kids I have taught.” Footy guernseys were worn throughout the week with many juniors wearing them during their lessons at both the Mt Eliza Tennis Club and Frankston Tennis Club. Collingwood midfielder Adam Treloar also made an appearance at the Mt Eliza Tennis Club on Monday 28 August and signed autographs and took pictures to help raise support. Better Tennis hope the funds will help with his recovery and see him back of the court in no time.

Edi-Asp kick-start future AFLW careers By Sasha Pursell EDITHVALE-Aspendale Football club is paving the way for future AFLW stars. Over the past few weeks the bayside club has played a key role in the development of Collingwood AFLW’s latest recruit and code-switch athlete Eliza Hynes. The Bendigo-born, Australian volleyballer was signed on as a rookie with the Collingwood AFL Women’s team in May this year. At the start of August, the 25-yearold began training with the senior women’s team at Edi-Asp in preparation for the upcoming AFLW pre-season. In Round 13, the 183-cm ruckman made her Australian rules debut in Eagles’ colours, playing firstly in the women’s reserves before being bumped up to the senior squad the following week. With Collingwood AFLW coach Wayne Siekman watching on from the sidelines, Hynes cut a formidable figure on the field with her highflying leap and strong kicking and proved instrumental in the Eagles’ nail-biting win over reigning premiers Mornington. Following the match, a grateful Hynes was presented with a token Eagles jumper from her teammates. What followed was a heartfelt speech to the club that helped kick-start her AFL career. Women’s Senior Coach Luke Aston said there are hopes of further establishing a relationship between Edithvale-Aspendale and the Collingwood AFLW team. “I want my girls to know that they don’t have to play for a VFL club in order to be noticed by the AFLW,” he said. In only its second year, the Edithvale-Aspendale women’s team is fast making a name for itself with over 50 girls pulling on the boots in 2017. The club now has two women’s teams playing in SEWF Division 2 and the SFNL Development league respectively. Hundreds of supporters descended on Regents Park for the season-ender between the fifth-placed Eagles and reigning premiers Mornington on Saturday 19 August. It was an arm-wrestle from start to

finish with the margin never exceeding a point between each break. Eagles captain Erin Meade and centre half-back Bridget Hanrahan played their part in keeping the usually dominant Bulldogs’ forward-line quiet in what was a low-scoring affair. With the scores dead-even late in the penultimate quarter, Eagles forward Nicola Deacon broke through the pack to deliver a bouncing ball between the goals and put the Eagles in front for the first time all day. The Eagles then dug in to hold off a late surge from Mornington to notch 5 September 2017
up a four-point victory. Despite again narrowly missing finals Aston said that it was another amazing season, both on and off the field. “Every player improved and contributed and felt part of it. With some of the injuries and stuff we had, we did really well.” Edi-Asp’s pre-season is expected to start back in November. They welcome any new female recruits that want to come down and have a kick. Contact Barry Davey on 0418 456 070 if you’re interested.
By Ben Triandafillou PENINSULA Boxing will have three representatives heading to the National Boxing Championships in November after a successful week of boxing around the world. Representing Australia, heavyweight boxer Jason Whateley faced Olympic and World champion boxers at the AIBA World Championships in Hamburg, Germany last week. Starting with a bye in the opening round, Whateley moved on to the second round to face Indian Olympic boxer Sumit Sangwan. Whateley stormed home in the second and third rounds to secure his victory, almost stopping Sangwan before the final bell with an eight count in the last round and headed towards the quarter finals. Facing Rio Olympics silver medallist and world no. 3 Vasilli Levit in the final, Whateley held his ground to the final bell but was defeated in a point’s decision. Standing by Whateley’s side, Peninsula Boxing head-coach Marcos Amado said he fought a great fight to finish up with the world’s best. “He defeated Sangwan very well and that put him up into the top eight,” Amado said. “Coming up against the Rio Olym-
pian from Kazakhstan in the quarters was tough. It was a seesaw fight, he’s a very hard boxer but [Whateley] did a great job and really gave it his all.” Peninsula Boxing was also represented by Jack Gipp and April Franks at the Elite Victorian Championships at the Reggio Calabria Club, Brunswick on Sunday 27 August. 18-year-old Jack Gipp showed he is a boxer to be reckoned with after taking out the state title for the first time in open category. Notching up his sixth state title under Coach Marcos Amado, Gipp will now prepare for the National Championships and attempt to qualify for the Commonwealth Games. “I would say he’s up there with some of the top boxers in Australia. He’s only 18 and going up against boxers who are 26-28 and much more experienced,” Amado said. “He won his final quite convincingly and April only narrowly lost in the final.” Franks picked up a silver medal at the state titles in a tight decision which could have gone either way. All three boxers will now prepare for the national championships in NSW later in November where Whateley and Gipp will attempt to qualify for the Commonwealth Games.
