Shots signal end of an era THE last of the big guns has fired its final shots and been decommissioned at the West Head Gunnery Range, Flinders.

More than 100 people, including Naval top brass and former staff attended the Tuesday 10 October ceremony to mark the end of the 76mm medium calibre gun’s role at West Head.

Medium calibre training will now be provided via virtual reality simulation and onboard training.

The 76mm gun was installed in 1992, and until 2019 used to train operators/maintainers and principal warfare officers from Australia and the Philippines.

The decommissioning of the MK75-76mm gun represents the end of 64 years of Navy shore-based medium calibre live-fire training.

The West Head gunnery range will continue to operate two Typhoon weapon systems.

Peninsula in step with national No

Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au VOTING patterns in the Voice to Parliament referendum on the Mornington Peninsula were close to those recorded across Australia, resulting in a clear No. The latest counting on Monday morning showed 57.89 per cent of No votes on the peninsula (60.59 nationally) and 42.11 per cent Yes (39.41 nationally).

Neighbouring Dunkley, which includes Mount Eliza, recorded 50.07 per cent No and 43.61 per cent Yes. There were some pockets on the peninsula where Yes votes triumphed - Mount Martha and around the Red

Hill area - but No votes dominated elsewhere, from Portsea and Sorrento to Dromana and across to Baxter, Somerville and through Hastings on the Western Port side of the peninsula.

Flinders Liberal MP and a supporter of the No campaign waged by the federal opposition, Zoe McKenzie, used a German word when using Facebook to urge people to vote in the referendum: "Turns out Flinders are weltmeister [world champions] when it comes to early voting, with 54% of us having voted by close of business on Thursday.”

Dunkley MP Labo’sr Peta Murphy, on voting day on Facebook, said voting Yes was “our chance to close the gap on health, education and housing.

Let’s take it”. There was no mention

of the No victory on her Facebook page on Sunday.

Labor MP for Hastings, Paul Mercurio, uploaded a video of himself and labor colleague Eastern Victoria MP Tom McIntosh “turning some democracy sausages … I voted Yes not because I'm Labor but because it is the absolutely right thing to do,” On Sunday, after the referendum was lost, Mercurio’s Facebook showed pictures of a microwave meal he’d cooked but made no reference to the result.

On voting day, the latest post on Nepean MP Sam Groth’s Facebook page congratulated Dromana Tigers on their Mornington Peninsula Football Netball League division one premiership. Fellow Liberal and MP for Mornington Chris Crewther told

how “exciting” it had been at the official opening of the new Jubilee Park stadium in Frankston.

McKenzie had made no secret of her advocacy for a No vote, saying five months ago that although being “firmly committed to the recognition of Australia’s First Nations peoples in the Constitution … I cannot recommend a Yes vote due to the unacceptable constitutional and legal risk it contains”.

“While lawyers disagree about what the worst-case scenario might be, former High Court justices have warned that if a court were to find a duty to consult the Voice before the execution of any executive power, then it could ‘bring the government to a halt’ or ‘make government unworkable’ (“A

risk to executive government” The News 30/5/23).

The three polling places in Hastings recorded the largest margin between voting preferences on the peninsula, with No receiving 10,170 votes and Yes 5731.

The 187 comments on the Hastingsbased Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association Facebook made after the referendum result was known ranged from being sympathetic (“devastating outcome”) to derisive (“what a waste of money”).

On the other side of the peninsula, Rosebud’s six polling places added 14,087 No votes and 9555 Yes votes to the tally. Mornington’s six polling places recorded 12,603 No votes to 9718 Yes.

Time is tight for terminal comment Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au TWO words may be the deciding factor to hold an environment protection biodiversity conservation (EPBC) assessment into plans to build and ship infrastructure for a Bass Strait wind farm from the Port of Hastings.

The Save Westernport group wants the project classified as a “controlled action” to trigger investigations into the environmental effects of a renewable energy terminal on Long Island.

The group’s secretary Julia Stockigt says acceptance of the term by the federal government would see investigations “necessary to determine whether the potential impacts of dredging and land reclamation on Western Port’s fragile environment can be managed”.

The state government, which allocated $27 million in its 2023/24 budget for the offshore wind turbines to be built in Long Island Drive, Hastings, has said there will be “a thorough environment effects statement (EES) process” before the project progresses (“State says terminal plan to go ahead” The News 12/9/23).

The state government says the terminal - backed by the Port of Hastings Corporation (PoHC) - will be built “for the receival, assembly and installation of offshore wind foundations, towers and turbines as a multi-user facility, with new berths, heavy duty pavements and major supporting infrastructure”.

Stockigt last week said submissions would close on 23 October.

“We’re asking people to please log on and say the project is a ‘controlled action’ because it could significantly impact Western Port’s

Ramsar wetlands and endangered species due to the dredging and land reclamation needed to construct the terminal in Western Port for the proposed wind farm in Bass Strait,” she said.

“Under the Commonwealth EPBC Act, if a project has the potential to significantly impact a matter of national environmental significance (MNES), like Ramsar wetlands or endangered species, it must undergo an EPBC assessment,” she said, and urged people to read reports commissioned (and published on its website) by the PoHC “and use the information to draft your submission”.

“If approved, the Western Port terminal will be used to construct the Victorian government’s proposed wind farm in the Bass Strait and maintain it for many years to come.

“We welcome the government’s renewable energy projects, like the offshore wind farm proposal, if it can be shown that the effects … are not too great for Western Port’s fragile environment, and they can be managed according to world’s best practice at every stage.

“If it is shown that the dredging and land reclamation they propose will significantly impact endangered species, or the Ramsar wetlands, then the project must not go ahead.”

The PoHC’s stakeholder and community relations manager Todd Trimble said the terminal “will deliver critical port capacity to meet Victoria’s offshore wind targets…” (“Terminal delay could hit power targets” The News 21/8/23).

“Offshore wind assembly places unique heavyduty operational requirement on ports, including significant land area adjacent to available berths, pavement strength and channel capacity.”

There was no other port in Australia that could “facilitate offshore wind assembly”.

AUSTRALIA’S first equine-assisted therapy program to use retired racehorses is celebrating the Melbourne Cup with a difference.

Racing Hearts, a charity that gives former racehorses a new lease on life through retraining and integration to therapy programs for humans, is inviting the community to be part of early cup celebrations and experience humans “helping horses helping humans”.

Founded in 2018, Racing Hearts operates from a 12-hectare property in Balnarring with a sand arena for riding lessons with a therapy focus.

The organisation has rehabilitated more than 100 retired race horses, working with Racing Victoria with a large focus on their reset program that caters to horses with special needs.

Economy’s a tournament winner BASKETBALLERS from around the state will descend on the Mornington Peninsula in November to compete in the Southern Peninsula Tournament.

It has been estimated that the expected 25,000 visitors will also provide a $4 million boost to the economy.

Held over 11 and 12 November and hosted by the Southern Peninsula Basketball Association, the tournament has been running for 35 years and is a highlight of the state’s basketball

sporting calendar.

SPBA general manager Ben White said the tournament would see the 600 competing teams use 47 courts at 18 venues.

The tournament involves 250 volunteers and is being held after months of behind-the-scenes planning and preparation.

The tournament’s charity partner is the Lighthouse Foundation, which offers support to children and young people at risk of homelessness, includ-

ing on the Mornington Peninsula.

White said the tournament had teamed up with Mornington Peninsula Shire for the next three years as major sponsor.

“This event will have the best teams and athletes in Victoria competing as well as regional level teams,” he said.

“We focus on community inclusivity – it’s an event for everyone, catering to players, referees, scorers, volunteers across diverse ages, backgrounds, and abilities.”

AUTHORITIES are appealing for anyone with information about the apparent fatal mauling by dogs of a juvenile Australian fur seal at McCrae beach on Monday (9 October).

The Conservation Regulator Victoria is seeking information after the seal was found on the beach with bite wounds and other injuries.

Officers are investigating the incident following a report from the Melbourne Zoo Marine Response Unit which were alerted to a wounded juvenile fur seal by a member of the public. Marine wildlife officers attended the beach at 10.30am but found the animal had already died as a result of its injuries.

The seal’s body was assessed at the beach and found to have sustained puncture wounds to its body and flippers. A subsequent vet assessment at Melbourne Zoo confirmed the seal had suffered severe trauma from a dog attack and that was the most likely cause of death.

Seals are protected by law, and it is an offence to allow a dog to chase, attack or injure them. Pet owners face penalties of up to $4807 under the Wildlife Act 1975 and up to $48,077 or 12 months’ jail under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1986.

Additional penalties up to $3846 apply under the Wildlife (marine mammals) Regulations 2019 to dog owners who allow their pets within 30 metres of a seal.

McCrae beach is leash free from 7pm to 9am during daylight savings time.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has reminded dog owners about the requirement to keep their animals under effective control at all times while exercising them on peninsula beaches.

Anyone with information can report it confidentially to Crime Stoppers Victoria on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au Liz Bell

As part of Victoria’s Big Build, we’re removing 110 dangerous and congested level crossings, with 72 already gone. We’re also upgrading roads to reduce congestion and improve travel times.

Waves of hope for troubled minds ON and around World Mental Health Day on 10 October Mornington Peninsula police showcased the work of Sergeant Barry Randall, who founded Operation Soul Surf.

When it comes to healing the mind, water and waves are the best healers.

From early in his career, Randall became aware of the impact policing can have on a person’s mental health, describing “high highs and low lows” during his nearly 30 years at Victoria Police.

Not long into his career, an attempt on Randall's life in 1995 ended in a fatal police shooting.

Nightmares followed, as did insomnia and PTSD; a diagnosis that encouraged Randall to leave the country, and then return to the Mornington Peninsula where he could be closer to the beach.

While he knew the benefits of surfing for his own wellbeing, it wasn’t until he watched a documentary on surf therapy that he had a lightbulb moment.

Soon after, Operation Soul Surf was born – based at Point Leo - with the help of the East Coast Surf School, surf outlets and sponsors.

Designed for first responders and military veterans, each free program includes four two-hour lessons and a post-surf meal where participants bond over shared experiences.

“Learning to surf is very physical, very immersive. They (participants) can get out of their own heads for a while, which resonates with so many of us,” Randall said.

Since its launch in 2021, Operation Soul Surf has supported 120 first responders and veterans impacted by PTSD and trauma.

Keeping dust down ANYONE living on an unsealed road in the Mornington Peninsula can be part of the dust suppression program.

The program aims to alleviate concerns about living or driving on dry, dusty roads.

In response to requests for dust suppression, the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council annually selects sections of unsealed and gravel roads, particularly important for community assets or roads used as a thoroughfare.

Applications are now open for the dust suppression program. Any resident can put forward their application by visiting the website at mornpen.vic.gov.au/dustsuppression Applications close on 19 November and the program begins in early December.

A list of where dust suppression was applied last year is at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/dustsuppression The mayor Cr Steve Holland said the weather bureau had declared that El Nino is underway “so we’re in for a hot, dry summer”.

“That means our unsealed roads may be extra dusty, resulting in low visibility for drivers.

Please drive to the conditions and if you live on an unsealed road, submit your application to be part of the Dust Suppression Program,” he said.

Polio survivors Stayin’ Alive in Hastings WORLD Polio Day will be celebrated by Victorian survivors of the virus at Hastings this year with the theme Stayin’ Alive.

Hastings MP Paul Mercurio will open the Polio Network Victoria event at the Sanctuary Inn On Westernport on 25 October.

“Polio Day, is an annual opportunity for survivors who met as children at various rehabilitation hospitals such as Mount Eliza, Fairfield, Lady Dugan or country centres, to catch up, and to discuss current health and management issues,” Mornington Peninsula Post-Polio Support Group convenor and PNV vice-chair Fran Henke said.

Polio epidemics affected mostly children, paralysing limbs and lungs until 1956 when the vaccine reached Victoria.

Thousands died and those who survived were now dealing with the late effects of polio or post-polio syndrome “and ignorance of it”.

“This year we are dealing again with bureaucratic battles and assistive technology. We are too old for NDIS, which cuts out at 65 years, and My Aged Care is not really designed for people with disabilities”, Henke said.

The first guest speaker will be Dr Natasha Layton on “what have human rights to do with assistive technology”.

An occupational therapist practicing, researching and teaching on assistive technology, disability, and outcomes at Monash Frankston campus, Layton has been a member of the Clinical Advisory Panel for Polio Australia, and consultant to the World

Health Organisation.

The Department of Health and Aged Care’s assistant director Dion Abel, will speak on his work with local service providers identifying needs and challenges facing ageing and First Nations populations.

“The program will not all be heavy and accessible travel and a laughter workshop will lighten the load,” Henke said.

“Family, friends and carers are welcome.”

Guest speakers will be given a “special condiment” created by Benton

Rise Farm, Tuerong, in locally made Boomerang bags.

“I wanted to ensure we used local products and produce to show off our wonderful home,” Henke said.

Graeme Johnson, a founding member of the peninsula group who died last year, left a bequest to the group which is helping pay for the day.

Bookings can be made through: trybooking.com/CLBIL The $45 plus booking fee includes lunch, morning and afternoon teas.

‘Pristine’ coast reserves ‘ignored’ Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE former owner of Yaringa Boat Harbour at Somerville is hitting the trail for retirement in Frankston, but not without praising the area’s bushland areas and taking a swipe at authorities for ignoring them.

“Everyone I know who likes a bit of bush walking and appreciating nature hops in their car and drives somewhere else,” Borzecki, who has lived most of his life in Somerville, said.

“I am continually amazed at how

few people know that we have more than 10 kilometres of pristine bush fronting onto the coast of Western Port, complete with large bush reserves.

“The area is readily accessible and stretches from the Bembridge Golf Club - yes, Somerville has a Golf Club - on the Tyabb-Tooradin Road, just down from Moonlight Sanctuary.

The coastal reserve passes through Yaringa marina and goes all the way to Tyabb beach - yes, Tyabb has a beach.”

Borzecki said the area’s shorter walks included from Rolfes’ Reserve

to Watsons Creek.

“These areas used to be heavily abused and used for stripping cars, shooting and by trail bikes, but now are very lightly trod by only a few,” he said.

“There is one caveat, be aware that some areas are heavily overgrown and the snake population, even in winter, is immense. There are views from Mt Dandenong to Mt Baw Baw right down to Phillip Island as well as French and Quail islands. echidnas, wallabies and koalas and the full range of bush and wetland birds.”

Borzecki, who in March lost a bye-

lection for the Watson Ward seat on Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, said the lack of care for or maintenance of Western Port’s bushland and coastal reserves was “another case of lack of interest by the shire”.

“A simple mowing of the whole path once or twice a year would solve the problem; but there is no money in the [shire’s] budget,” Borzecki said. “Approval is needed from other parties, any excuse [is used] to not do anything in this forgotten part of the peninsula.

“Parks Victoria can blast a path through any bush in the name of fire

access, but not here. Welcome to the North Western Port Nature Conservation Reserve.”

The Watson Ward vacancy on the 11-member council was caused by the resignation in December 2022 of Paul Mercurio, elected as Labor’s MP for Hastings at the November election.

Borzecki received the highest number of first preference votes, 23.15 per cent, but lost to former councillor Kate Roper (21.48 per cent) after the distribution of preferences (“Roper returns to shire after Watson Ward win” The News 27/3/23).

Mayor’s charity to support foundation – with more funds more schools can become involved.”

Holland said the aim was to raise $20,000 to help MPF continue to make a tangible difference in the lives of children and families who are facing challenging circumstances.

The raffle will be drawn at midday on 20 November.

There are 13 prizes with a prize pool of $6593.

THE Mornington Peninsula Foundation will be the recipient of this year’s Mayoral Charity fundraising raffle.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Council mayor Cr Steve Holland said MPF was chosen because of the group’s commitment to improving the lives of young people on the peninsula and breaking the cycle of disadvantage.

MPF is a philanthropic organisation working across two main geographical areas – Western Port and the southern peninsula.

The focus has seen them successfully support community and education partners, including kindergarten, primary and secondary schools, as well as community support services.

Holland said he was delighted to be fundraising for the foundation.

“I have seen the fantastic work this organisation is doing in our community, especially in supporting young people,” he said.

He also thanked businesses and sponsors who had supported the event.

“I’d like to encourage our community to get behind this important initiative and buy some raffle tickets,” he said.

The foundation’s CEO Stephanie Exton said money raised from the raffle would go to work undertaken by MPF’s community partners in education and family support.

“MPF works closely with 10 schools across the southern peninsula and in Western Port, with a focus on the transition to evidence based teaching integrated with locally based community support services,” she said.

“The work is seeing improved literacy, engagement in learning and attendance. More schools are keen to join the systems change

Deputy mayor was there for the vote MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire deputy mayor Cr Debra Mar was one of six councillors to vote for a move that effectively ruled out any debate about publicly releasing information provided to councillors during private briefings.

Mar’s name was inadvertently omitted from the list of councillors backing a ruling by the mayor, Cr Steve Holland (“Council undecided over release of ‘secret advice’” The News 10/10/23).

The other five councillors who also backed the mayor were Holland, Sarah Race, Antonella Celi, Despi O’Connor and Kate Roper. Against the mayor’s ruling were David Gill, Simon Brooks and Lisa Dixon.

Crs Anthony Marsh and Susan Bissinger did not attend the 3 October public meeting.

Celebrating children enjoying nature

Screen time for Dreamweavers DREAMWEAVERS is a series of short documentaries by award winning filmmakers Heather Forbes-McKeon and Yanni Dellaportas about three Mornington Peninsula-based women who have suffered adversity and inspired others.

The films focus on the women’s objectives, motivations, challenges they face in relation to their goals and what advice they have for others.

Ecologist and ethnobotanist Gidja Walker has worked for years protecting landscapes and overcame discrimination in a male dominated profession.

She is a mentor to young women entering the world of nature-based learning and an advocate for traditional owner custodianship.

Over many decades, Walker has contributed professionally and informally as a consultant and advisor to government bodies and community-

based organisations. In 2006 she received Prime Minister’s Banksia Award for the Back from the Brink, an endangered orchid species recovery project.

Jacquie Beddows suffered a stroke and aneurysm when she was 50 years old in 2011. While no longer being able to work as an early childhood support worker, she established Singing for Wellness in 2015 and Art for Wellness in 2019 at Seawinds Community Hub, Rosebud.

Although still challenged in many ways, Beddows’ focusses on helping and inspiring others who have had life changing events. Dreamweaver- Jacquie Beddows won the My Local Hero category at the 2022 Peninsula Film Festival and was a finalist in the 2022 National Focus on Ability Film Festival.

Liz Hicklin is a 92-year-old author, poet, and

raconteur who is an inspiration to local writers and women.

Her two adult daughters suffered from mental illness and committed suicide seven years apart when aged in their early 40s.

Hicklin challenges people’s views on ageing, particularly as a performer, and recently won a poetry slam at the Clunes Booktown Festival and was featured on ABC radio Melbourne.

The Dreamweavers series will be shown at Rosebud Cinema on the evening of Tuesday 24 October. After the screening a Q & A session hosted by former Australian of the Year, Rosie Batty AO, will be held with the films’ subjects of the films.

Dining out to hear about refugees Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au SUAN Lee Campbell has a grand vision to bring people together on the Mornington Peninsula.

A strong advocate for refugees and the disadvantaged, Campbell, of Rosebud, is hoping to encourage others to embrace newcomers to Australia and invite them to the peninsula to be part of the community.

She has organised a fundraising lunch next week (28 October) to help support the refugee cause.

“I think the peninsula is a great place to live and I would love to invite people to a lunch to listen to inspiring stories from refugees and share great food,” she said.

Campbell said there would be speakers from Ukraine, Afghanistan and Syria, as well as people from disadvantaged groups.

The mother-of-two moved to Australia more than 35 years ago and started her involvement with refugees after completing an English language teaching course and volunteering with Southern Migrant and Refugee Centre in Dandenong a few years ago.

“I did it mainly to get to know other multicultural groups, because there were not many migrants here on the peninsula,” she said.

During lockdown Campbell also started volunteering with AMES, a Melbourne-based provider of settlement services for refugees and migrants. These include on-arrival settlement support, English language and literacy training, vocational education and training, and employment services.

It was during this time that Singapore-born Campbell developed a desire to do something more to help refugees who had escaped injustice in their homelands and sought refuge in Australia.

SUAN Lee Campbell with Andrew Taylor, manager at New Peninsula Community Caring, a church-based group that offers support to disadvantaged people. Picture: Yanni “When the Taliban took over Afghanistan, we saw the desperation of Afghans who were associated with allied forces to escape,” she said.

“The ones who made it to Australia were faced with lockdown and there were no supplies of basic living stuff for them. As an AMES volunteer, I went along to the city where many new refugees were housed and we opened an op shop in a hall so they could get any supplies they needed that AMES could rustle up, like hygiene packs, nappies and clothes.

“I noticed the refugees had nothing [in which] to hold their meagre belongings, so I appealed to our Mornington Peninsula community via

Facebook for donations of suitcases and prams.

I was overwhelmed by the compassionate and generous responses. We could not open our front door because it was piled up by the donations of so many things, more than I had asked for.”

Campbell said a Balinese man living on the peninsula said he did not have prams but offered his utility and trailer to drive the donations to the city.

“It took three trips to get all the donations to the city. I received so many warm and generous messages from our community. How wonderful was that?”

Last year, Campbell organised with AMES

to run an exploratory excursion for a group of recent Afghan refugees to visit the Rosebud area as a possible settlement. The event included representatives of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, the federal government, businesses, agriculture, aged care and support services, education and medical professionals.

Ten family groups came with AMES staff - the first trip outside of Melbourne for the refugees.

Campbell said she did not know of any refugees yet living on the peninsula, but that it was natural for refugee families to want to stay together, after experiencing similar traumas.

“I'm sure it's only a matter of time that the next generation of refugees will venture further afield and find the peninsula a very attractive place to live and work,” she said.

“There is already an Afghan community in Frankston. The chef providing the event's lunch was a refugee and now owns a successful restaurant in Mornington.

“This is my hope for the future of the peninsula community, that people from refugee backgrounds will one day call the peninsula their home and bless us with their diverse skills and experiences.”

Campbell said she believed the peninsula was a “caring community”, open to refugees.

“I'm helping to provide opportunities for the peninsula community to finally meet and mingle with the refugees. This lunch is an inaugural and unique community connection event,” she said.

“The lunch will provide an opportunity for understanding and awareness hearing their side of the story.”

The lunch will be on Saturday 28 October at the New Peninsula Baptist Church, 370 Craigie Road, Mount Martha, from noon to 2pm. Bookings essential. Book at Eventbrite, and search for Sharing Food and Stories community lunch on 28 Oct or email weisuanlee@gmail.com

DEPRESSION is a common and serious mental health disorder affecting approximately 280 million individuals worldwide according to the World Health Organisation. Inadequate response to standard antidepressant treatment remains a significant problem, resulting in many patients having untreated symptoms of depression.

Peninsula Therapeutic and Research Group is a clinical research unit that specialises in mental health studies in Melbourne’s southeast suburb of Frankston.

The Principal Investigator heading up the unit is Dr Jennifer Grunfeld, who has over 20 years of experience running mental health clinical trials. “I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to work on clinical trials for many different mental health conditions, from depression to social anxiety to Alzheimer’s disease” states Dr Grunfeld. “It is great to be able to be one of the few clinics in Australia that participate in

international mental health trials. It provides the public with an opportunity to trial medications that otherwise would not be available to them.”

The clinic is currently running a number of depression trials for both adults and the elderly who are living with major depressive disorder (MDD).

States a former trial participant “I learned heaps about myself and I am really grateful.

Can’t wait until next year to find out what I was taking. Thanks for all the knowledge and keep up all of the great work you do.”.

To learn about the depression research studies that are currently being run at Peninsula Therapeutic and Research Group, you can contact the Research Nurse, Xenia Jung on 03 9770 1579 or via email admin@ptrg.com.au. All study visits and study-required medical care are provided at no cost and travel costs will be reimbursed.

ON THE COVER

A design exemplar Few properties are deserving of the moniker: perfect. From the garden designed for delight to the home itself which is a study in architectural precision, every detail has been considered for its beauty, elegance and studied appeal. Each element in the garden has been selected with the bold confidence of a seasoned landscape artiste, whilst the house is oriented to capture breathtaking vistas from every outlook. A Japanese courtyard garden

understates the considered deployment of dynamic layers, where water, stone and seasonal bursts of colour are blended to create a captivating mélange of intense detail. The garden continues with two rooms (either easily accommodating a pool) as well as a greenhouse hidden in the utility yard. Meanwhile, the surprises are plentiful inside, where white oak floors and cabinetry throughout are punctuated by travertine.

The kitchen boasts a full complement

of Miele appliances, including a coffee machine, and a rare marble on benchtops continuing into the prep-pantry. A breakfast table fits elegantly into a curved wall of glass for picture views of koi in the courtyard pond and a chill-out room at the opposite end of the kitchen echoes the curve of the window. Floating stairs to both the sizeable bedroom wing and the generous formal dining and lounge follow the contours of the property creating a harmonious balance

of aspect and function. The formal living hides the home’s most impressive surprise: a private water view stretching across Port Philip Bay towards the city lights with an outdoor kitchen and heating for year-round enjoyment. With the beach a few hundred meters away and The Village a short drive, there’s more than enough to indulge the active body and mind amidst this prestigious property embracing a Golden Mile dream lifestyle.n

The Guide TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

SUNDAY

THE HOURS

SBS WORLD MOVIES, 10.40pm

THURSDAY

The Hours hurls you head-first into the frightening mental torment of suicide – as seen through the eyes of a modernday New York socialite (Meryl Streep), a 1950s housewife (Julianne Moore) and author Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman in her Oscar-winning role, pictured) as she struggles with her sanity while penning Mrs Dalloway. Surprisingly life-affirming given its tragic underpinnings, a mix of superb writing, astonishing acting, melancholic music

by Philip Glass and intelligent direction from Billy Elliot’s Stephen Daldry, makes this worth a look.

EVERY FAMILY HAS A SECRET

SBS, 7.30pm

She was a presenter on Play School and Better Homes and Gardens, but beloved actor Noni Hazlehurst (Pictured) has left this lighter fare in her wake hosting this compellingly gritty genealogy series. This enthralling fourth season, premiering tonight, promises more disquieting revelations, with adoptions, bigamy, a lost inheritance and a baby swap all uncovered from the dust of family mysteries. As the participants face shock and disbelief, Hazlehurst’s warmth is a welcome reprieve.

SATURDAY

WHAT’S EATING GILBERT GRAPE

SBS WORLD MOVIES, 6.20pm

Johnny Depp (Pictured) shows us a gracefully disjointed view of post-adolescence through the daily meanderings of his character Gilbert Grape, and his small-town dysfunctional family.

Gilbert’s father has passed on, his obese mother (Darlene Cates) hasn’t left the house in seven years, and his younger brother Arnie (Leonardo DiCaprio, in his scene-stealing Oscar-nominated role) lives with autism, requiring constant care. His claustrophobic life is given some relief by the arrival of a passer-by (Juliette Lewis) who’s stuck in town.

FRIDAY

GREEN BOOK

SEVEN, 8.30pm

A surprise winner of the Best Picture Oscar, this comedy directed by Peter Farrelly (Dumb & Dumber, There’s Something About Mary, Shallow Hal) is a refreshing take on the road-trip movie. In the early 1960s, distinguished African American pianist Don (Mahershala Ali, Moonlight) hires tough-talking Italian American bouncer Tony (Viggo Mortensen, pictured) as his chauffeur for a concert tour through America’s Midwest and Deep South.

Both homes are part of Autumn Aged Care, an experienced and respected aged care operator whose vision is to deliver Excellence. Every Resident. Every Time.

A Vision of Excellence: Every Resident. Every Time.

The pursuit of excellence in aged care is the philosophy that underpins everything that happens at Skye Lodge and Bentons Lodge.

Support for a fulfilled and purposeful life

Photos: supplied WE know there is an undeniable sense of comfort that comes from being in familiar surroundings.

Home is not just a physical space; it’s a repository of memories and a place of security. The emotional attachment to your environment fosters a profound sense of wellbeing that is hard to replicate elsewhere.

This is especially true for our elderly clients. Aging in your own home allows you to maintain a sense of independence, self-reliance, and dignity. We firmly believe that living in one’s own home for as long as possible is of paramount importance,

and we are dedicated to making this a reality for the seniors we serve.

However, we strive to go beyond simply helping around the house.

Respecting the individuality and autonomy of our elderly clients is at the heart of our mission. When you choose Like Our Own as your home care provider, we work closely with you and your family to create customised care plans that address your specific needs, preferences, and goals.

This personalised approach ensures that our clients receive the care they require while preserving their sense of self. We don’t just stop at

providing assistance with daily tasks, personal care, and arranging allied health services.

One of the most significant advantages of choosing Like Our Own as your home care package provider is the extraordinary level of individualised attention we offer to support our clientele’s emotional wellbeing.

We understand that staying involved with special interests and hobbies is the key to a vibrant and fulfilling life in one’s later years. The benefits are numerous, from physical and emotional health to cognitive stimulation and a strong sense of

purpose. Making it possible for our clients to continue with their passions and interests is Like Our Own’s specialty.

Our carers have learned to knit, garden and even cook special family recipes with clients. We have enabled a client to go fishing again. As locals, we know the perfect spot to take him.

We have connected with the closest German club for a client and set up an ongoing book delivery service for another in their native language.

One of our carers drives a client sixty kilometers each month to spend time at their family’s cemetery, while another escorts a client on weekly

visits with his spouse in a nursing home. If it is meaningful to you, it is important to us. A strong bond of trust exists between our staff and our clients because just as our name suggests, our core value is treating you like our own family.

For assistance navigating the My Aged Care process,customising your current home care package or to simply hear what we can do for you or one of your loved ones, reach out on 1800 OUR OWN or email info@ likeourown.com.au and one of our friendly staff members will be happy to help.

Seniors approach to art THE Mornington U3A art show opened last Friday (13 October) with a colourful display of works.

The show was opened by the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council mayor Cr Steve Holland and among the audience were politicians, councillors and members of the public.

Visitors had the opportunity to view art in various mediums and talk with artists exhibiting their work.

U3A art show committee member Joan Yalden said the two-day art show – held at the Currawong community centre - was timed to be part of the Victorian Seniors Festival.

From an initial meeting of 25 people in 1990, the Mornington U3A is now a learning community of more than 1100 members, offering seniors the opportunity to live, learn and enjoy.

Gnome no more by road AFTER eight years on public display, the infamous Reflective Lullaby sculpture is set to return to McClelland Gallery.

Gregor Kregar’s Reflective Lullaby, a giant chrome gnome, was installed at Peninsula Link’s Cranbourne Road exit eight years ago. Four years later the gnome was moved to the corner of Moorooduc Highway and Hastings Road in Frankston.

Last week, Reflective Lullaby was removed from its site and taken to McClelland Gallery in Langwarrin. The 10 metre tall artwork will be permanently installed in the gallery’s sculpture park.

As revealed earlier this month, the Love Flower sculpture which replaced the chrome gnome near Peninsula Link is also set to return to McClelland Gallery later this month.

Gallery director Lisa Byrne said the sculptures “have become a popular feature with visitors to the Mornington Peninsula and people will be delighted to rediscover them at McClelland”.

“Both Reflective Lullaby and Love Flower have developed a cult following over the years among visitors and locals,” she said. “Visitors to McClelland will be able to catch up with old friends as we welcome Reflective Lullaby and Love Flower to their new homes within McClelland’s 16 hectare park.”

The artworks are rotated as part of a public-private partnership between Southern Way and McClelland. Byrne said “the Southern Way McClelland Commissions are doing a massive job in driving popular appreciation of public art”.

Approval urged for ritual at planned temple site MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council officers have recommended planning approval be given for a temporary religious worship marquee on green wedge land in Pearcedale, despite 99 objections.

The application is for a traditional Hindu puja for religious “land purification” that will run for one week, with two worship sessions of 6am to 11am and 4pm to 8pm.

There are not expected to be any activities outside of the proposed marquee area, and no loudspeakers, microphones, music or bell ringing.

Some of the objections referred to the “inappropriate” use of the green wedge, the potential for traffic issues, impact of neighbours, and setting a precedent for non-agricultural use.

The site, at 1915 Hastings-Dandenong Road, is the subject of a separate planning application. Plans that were submitted in December 2021 by Melbourne Ayyappa Seva Sangam for a traditional Sree Ayyappa Temple attracted more than 300 objections.

That application is set to go to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal in February.

The $4.5 million development proposed by MASS will be built on four hectares of farmland with several temples, car parks, and centres to host events to cater for more than 1000 visitors.

The vacant site at the heart of the proposal is surrounded by agriculture, including market gardening, broiler

farms, equestrian and rural living activities.

Shire officers have recommended the separate application for the marquee – to go before Mornington Peninsula Shire Council tonight (Tuesday 17 October) - be approved subject to conditions pertaining to noise, amenity and waste.

Because it is also expected to go before VCAT, council is able to decide the application, but not issue a decision. A practice day hearing is scheduled for 10 November followed by a compulsory conference on 29 November. A merits hearing is scheduled for 15 and 16 February 2024.

Cyclist dies AN elderly man who fell from his bicycle on Point Nepean Road at Blairgowrie earlier this month died from his injuries on Thursday (12 October).

It is believed the man was riding with a group on 1 October when he lost control and fell over the handlebars, about 11am.

The 78-year-old from Kooyong sustained life-threatening injuries and was airlifted to hospital.

Police will prepare a report for the coroner and investigations remain ongoing.

Anyone who witnessed the crash or with footage or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Flood Damage to Road at Langwarrin Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE continuous rainfall during the past week caused all the waterways to become swollen, and everywhere water was swirling along with an almost irresistible force.

Boggy creek, draining as it does, an extensive watershed spread over its surroundings, and with its large volume of impetuous waters, tore out a great gap in the main road, stretching from Frankston to Cranbourne.

At this point the road is raised to a high bank and the culvert being unable to carry away the oncoming, flood waters a great body of it accumulated, and by its superior force, crumpled up the high road bank as if by magic.

This happened late on Friday evening, and fortunately for other travellers Mr. D. Hill, a former dayman of Cranbourne Shire, just reached the scene as the road collapsed, and at once started fires on the road to serve as a beacon to any wayfarers, and he also stayed there for sometime during the night as a further protection.

On Saturday morning, word was sent to the Shire Engineer, who gave permission to the residents to erect a temporary bridge on the side of the road built of sturdy tree trunks, topped with boughs of scrub and earth, by four o’clock this was ready, and motor and other traffic were passing as usual.

At this working bee there were over twenty willing workers, and was reminiscent of the early days here when the Progress Association showed their self-reliance by forming and clearing roads by cutting

down hills and filling in depressions, etc.

In this working bee on Saturday last there were a number of young men who had willingly given up their Saturday half-holiday to help on the work of bridging the great gap in the road, and so permit traffic to go on as usual.

The need for the provision of a large waterway is obvious and it is intended to have a bridge erected, to permit the outlet of flood waters.

At this point the drainage of some thousands of acres must pass, and when one realises that one inch of rainfall means 101 tons of water on an acre it can easily be seen that the volumes of water from this large watershed which nearly three inches of rainfall represents is enormous.

Apart from this road, no other damage to any extent from the floods is reported.

The soil had reached the saturation point before this last downpour, and is now in a sloppy, and unworkable state, with a spell of finer weather, conditions would rapidly improve routine work in the orchard, and vegetable plots have been delayed through so many wet days, and the sodden state of the soil.

The grass, however, will benefit, and in a short time should show an abundant growth for the pasturage of stock. *** A MOST distressing accident befell Mr. D. P. Cain, a well known and respected farmer of Langwarrin.

It appears that Mr Cain was leaving Mr. Gathercoles’ butcher shop,

and turning round to close the shop door slipped, and broke his hip.

He was taken to St. Pancras private hospital where he is being attended

by Dr. Johnson. *** MRS. Parris, the unfortunate victim of the smash in Hastings road last Wednesday is still in St. Pancras Hospital.

Her friends will be glad to learn that she is progressing as well as can be expected. *** MR. Mick Rutherford, who recently was engaged as a boxing instructor at the Flinders Naval Base, had his right foot amputated last week.

The foot was injured several weeks ago and Mr. Rutherford was admitted the Caulfield Repatriation Hospital.

The injury was so serious that it was decided early last week to amputate the foot at the ankle.

Mr. Rutherford has a pleasing personality, and always in the ring he could be depended upon to provide an interesting display.

Boxing enthusiasts and others will express the hope that he will soon be about again. *** SEVERAL old-time residents assert that the rainfall here last week, was the heaviest yet experienced in Tyabb for October.

The Cranbourne, and Crescent Roads were flooded in places and it was impossible to get to Tyabb on foot on Saturday morning. The weather was also very cold.

Considerable damage was done to the roads here, through the heavy

rains.

*** GENERAL approval was expressed here in regard to the suggestions of your Tyabb correspondent re improving the train service between Frankston and Stony Point.

The general trend of opinion seemed to be in favor of the proposal asking the Railway Commissioners to allow persons between Frankston and Stony Point to travel by the sailors’ train.

At present the train runs down to Crib Point empty every Friday, and also runs back empty to Melbourne every Monday.

Seeing residents in this part of the Peninsula have only a curtailed railway service; something should now be done to improve matters in the direction already indicated by our Tyabb correspondent.

It behoves the Tyabb Progress Association to wake up and lend a hand, to other organisations, who are striving to gain a better train service for this line. *** WHEEL Tax Abandoned The problem of maintaining arterial roads is daily becoming more complete, and the burden, more irksome, the wheel tax, advocated by the late Minister for Public Works, Mr. F. Clarke, last year, has been abandoned and as Mr. Gondie, the present Minister of Public Works, said, even if it received the Cabinet’s support, Parliament would reject it.

A meeting is being held to-day to consider the question of financing arterial roads, and Mr. Gondie will

explain the road finance proposals contained in the Budget speech delivered by the Treasurer (Sir William McPherson). *** AN exemplary weekend Frankston, without any doubt, can be held up to the numerous other popular weekend seaside resorts, as a paragon of everything that a well conducted rendezvous should be.

Saturday and Sunday traffic prove it to be the most popular weekend resort on the Bay, and the absence of “hooliganism” which is usually associated with seaside towns, is proof of the efficiency of those who control its summer destinies.

Last weekend was a most exemplary one, not a single case of misbehaviour, nor any occasion for police interference.

Tuesday’s court was marked in most conspicuous manner, by the absence of even an ordinary summons case, the P.M, Mr. W. G. Smith, sitting to an almost empty courthouse.

Frankston is to be congratulated, as such efficient control and handling of the crowds of visitors is its best advertisement as a popular seaside rendezvous. *** MESSRS. Deakin and Son, the local bakers, were very lucky during the weekend.

Two of their horses, with full loads of bread, bolted, and in each instance no damage was done. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 17 & 19 Oct 1923

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Berlin Waffle Doona Disaster

By Stuart McCullough I THOUGHT I knew what I was doing. I’ve been shopping by myself lots of times, mostly without incident. Granted, there’s been the occasional oversight (and who among us hasn’t forgotten to get dishwashing tablets for several weeks in row?), but mostly I do a pretty good job. It was, in retrospect, over-confidence that was my undoing. That’s how I ended up with ‘European pillowcases’, but no European pillows.

Diamonds may well be forever, but the same can’t be said for doona covers. Although, that said, I for one would gladly shell out thirty dollars for a ticket and a bucket of popcorn to see James Bond in ‘Doonas Are Forever’. But, inevitably, there moral fabric of your doona cover will surrender and a great big gaping hole will open up. You’re minding your own business when you hear it rip and there’s no turning back - the doona cover is blown and it’s time to get a new one.

I strode into the bedding store with a sense of purpose. Browsing is for weaklings. I wasn’t there to waste time, sniffling around like a twolegged truffle-pig. No way. I was there to hunt, gather and get out of there in the shortest time possible. When the staff offered to assist, I waved them away. With great intent, I strode across the shop floor towards a stack of doona covers that reached right up to the ceiling. In the event that I was unexpectedly locked inside, I could use the doona cover tower to climb my way to freedom through the ceiling tiles.

Because I’m nothing if not a creature of habit, I looked for something as close to my old doona design as possible. That’s what led me to ‘Berlin Waffle’. Not only did it look good; it put me in a mind to have a second breakfast. Within moments, I had selected the right size and turned to begin the march to the cash register when I found myself pausing for a moment. Having found my ‘Berlin Waffle’ doona cover in record time, I decided to build on my success and get some new

pillowcases too. It would be a total refresh. What could be better? Little did I know the kind of trouble I was letting myself in for.

I got three new pillowcases – also in ‘Berlin Waffle’ – to complement the doona cover. As I dumped an armful of bedding on the front counter, I could tell that the staff were super-impressed with my efforts. It was only upon returning home that my mistake became obvious – I had purchased European pillowcases. I was unaware that ‘European pillow cases’ were even a thing.

Most people would, at that point, return to the point of purchase and request an exchange, but I sensed that I had totally burned my bridges and

felt it unlikely that I could ever show my face there again.

The whole notion of a ‘European pillow’ has thrown me completely. The cases are gigantic, and looking at the picture on the back (which, admittedly, would have been a good idea whilst I was still standing in the shop), I could see that the pillows themselves are nothing short of huge.

It’s hard to imagine a head big enough to warrant such a pillow.

The size of the thing is decidedly ‘off-brand’.

A ‘European laundry’ is basically a cupboard with whitegoods shoved in, whereas a ‘European pillow’ looks like something stuntmen might

land on after they’ve thrown themselves off a building. This glaring inconsistency has caused me to question the very notion of geographically specific products. I’ll never look at English ham, French mustard or a Dutch oven in quite the same way again. The next time I get cut off in traffic and someone gives me a ‘Scotch Finger’; I won’t know what to think.

Having decided to keep three gigantic ‘European pillowcases’, I decided that the only thing I could do is get myself some enormous pillows.

This time, when I was offered help, I decided to take it and I can simply say that the range of options was as broad as the pillows themselves.

It’s not often that you can put an exact dollar figure on your mistakes. European pillows started at about thirty dollars, with the top end of the range going for something more like one hundred and seventy dollars. The premium version was called ‘Super Goose Deluxe’ which, as it happens, was my nickname in high school. Despite this, I opted for the cheaper model.

Let me say now that it’s hard to steer a shopping trolley when it’s stuffed full of gigantic pillows. It’s like being stuck behind clouds. Upon getting home, I stuffed the European pillows into the European pillowcases and then, once I’d put them down, wondered where the bed has gone.

The person to pillow ratio in my house has now fundamentally altered in favour of the pillows.

There’s no turning back now.

I like to think of myself as self-sufficient, capable to solving most problems for myself. But recent events have given me cause to reconsider.

Clearly, I am not quite the urban survivalist I thought I was. I know I need to do better but I’m not sure how. There must be some lesson I can learn, some chance for self-improvement. It’ll come to me. I’ll just have to sleep on it. On my gigantic pillow. Sweet dreams. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Baden Powell batters put on a show, Delacombe Park wins thriller

By Brodie Cowburn

PROVINCIAL

A MASSIVE opening stand between Dale Elmi and Luke Long has helped Baden Powell score an impressive win over Pines.

Baden Powell was sent in to bat first on Saturday at Pat Rollo Reserve.

Elmi and Long were awesome, scoring 166 runs between them before the first wicket fell.

Dale Elmi fell agonisingly short of a century - he was dismissed first for 97.

Soon after, Long managed to pass his century. He scored 103 before being caught out off the bowling of Ricky Ramsdale.

A tail order collapse prevented Baden Powell from scoring an enormous total. They lost 5-16 to close out their innings. They were bowled out for 265 runs.

Pines fought hard to chase their target and looked to score runs quickly.

Openers Ricky Ramsdale and Nick Christides scored 51 from 44, and 44 from 28 deliveries respectively. Number four batter Billy Humphrey scored 62 from 54 balls.

Humphrey batted right up until the end, but didn’t get enough support from his partners to drag his side over the line. His wicket was the last to fall - Pines was bowled out for 203 from 33 overs.

At Ballam Park, Red Hill chased down a target of 180 to defeat Long Island. Sorrento also joined the winner’s list - the Sharks defeated Heatherhill by 63 runs.

PENINSULA

MOOROODUC scored a narrow win over Dromana away from home last weekend.

Dromana batted first, and put a respectable total on the board. Led by a knock of 62 from first drop batter Bobby Wilson, Dromana scored 204 runs from their 40 overs.

Moorooduc chipped away at their target, but their innings failed to gain much momentum until skipper Benja-

min Williams came in at number six.

Williams helped his side get over the line by scoring an unbeaten half-century. Moorooduc hit the winning runs with just one over left to play, and four wickets to spare.

Mt Eliza’s huge total of 273 was enough to see off a challenge from Baxter last weekend. Somerville successfully defended a total of 210 against Rosebud.

Seaford Tigers bowled out Mornington for 143 runs to secure a hardfought win at Belvedere Reserve on Saturday.

DISTRICT

BALNARRING fell to a devastatingly close defeat against Delacombe Park on Saturday.

Delacombe Park batted first, and scored 184 from their 40 overs. Nick Hammel top scored with 45 before he was bowled out by Rhys Weiser.

Balnarring opener Jackson Hannah got his side started on the right foot with a 58 run knock. He was caught out off the bowling of Daniel Streker, who went on to post impressive figures of 5/20 from his eight overs.

Middle order batter Charlie Robinson-Cay also played his part. He was run out for 66. Unfortunately for Balnarring, his efforts weren’t quite enough.

Balnarring was bowled out for 180, just five runs short of victory. They still had a little more than an over left to play.

Some excellent bowling scored Carrum a big win last weekend. Carrum bowled Main Ridge out for 85, which they chased down without much trouble.

Seaford bowled well to defend a total of 155 against Crib Point, and Carrum Downs rounded out the round with a good win over Flinders.

SUB DISTRICT

AN excellent knock of 91 by Shabaaz Alam helped Skye post a big total against Rye last weekend.

Skye were excellent with bat in

hand. They scored 245 runs from their 40 overs.

Rye worked hard to stay in the contest, but two separate collapses put the game to bed. Rye lost 3-1 in the middle order, then lost 4-2 to close out the contest. Rye was bowled out for 170.

Raja Asim was the pick of the bowlers with figures of 4/31.

Pearcedale and Tyabb picked up six wicket wins over Ballam Park and Hastings respectively on Saturday.

Mt Martha successfully defended their total of 167 against Tootgarook. Boneo also scored a win last weekend, chasing down Frankston YCW’s total of 129 with eight wickets to spare.

Dog's day out: Mornington got the better of Seaford in Peninsula Division 2nds ending up 12 run winners.

Making waves: Maladiction Longboarders held their October comp at Shoreham's Atlas surf break over the weekend.

Over 60 surfers competed over seven divisions for men and woman.

Orritt returns to Mornington SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie SAMMY Orritt has rejoined Mornington after playing in the NPL with Langwarrin and Eastern Lions.

The 30-year-old dynamo agreed terms last week and could be joined by more new signings shortly.

Orritt’s football odyssey started in California at the age of three after business reasons prompted his family to move to the US from Doncaster in England.

He is the best-travelled footballer on the peninsula having paraded his skills on pitches in England, Scotland, the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

His first stint at Dallas Brooks Park started during the 2017 season when he arrived from NZ outfit Coastal United and he’s relishing the prospect of another spell with the Seagulls.

“I’m really looking forward to playing with a few of the boys again,” he said.

“Nothing against Eastern Lions because I enjoyed my time there but I’m over the politics of the NPL plus I’m living in Langwarrin now so they were big factors in my decision.”

Orritt expects to return to his original Mornington role as a winger rather than the attacking full-back he had become during his NPL stint.

“I’m expecting to play further forward than I have been and that suits me,” he said.

“I can play full-back if I have to but I enjoy playing up the park and hopefully I can contribute a few goals and assists.”

If he does then Mornington might shake the monkey from its back having fallen at the final hurdle in its quest to win promotion to the NPL. Last season the club finished third and in 2022 it was fourth.

It was on top when the pandemic brought an untimely end to the 2021 season so there was no promotion that year.

“I don’t know why this keeps happening – maybe it’s in the back of the players’ minds but really there’s only one option for Mornington.

“We’re not going out there to finish in the top four again and I’m going there to get promoted.

“From what I’ve heard they’ve kept most of the boys from last season and they’re good players and they play good football.

“I think they’ve been a bit unlucky not to get promoted but there’s only one way to fix that.

Home sweet home: Sammy Orritt has agreed terms for a second stint at Dallas Brooks Park. He is pictured in action for Eastern Lions. Picture: Supplied

“I’m looking forward to it.”

Mornington also signed Kyle Johnson last week.

He’s 23 and usually plays as a central midfielder but can also play across the back and that versatility could prove crucial to the Seagulls’ fortunes next season.

Johnson is a product of Central Coast Mariners’ youth system having played for the club in the national youth league and in the NSW NPL. Mornington was alerted to the possibility of signing Johnston by first choice keeper Kane Runge.

Seagulls’ gaffer Adam Jamieson won’t stop there in his quest to put together a senior squad capable of winning an NPL spot.

He’s speaking to other prospective players and the club expects to announce another major signing in the next few days.

“We’ve also re-signed a number of players from last season,” Jamieson said.

It’s believed that Mornington has already agreed terms with Kane Runge, Josh Heaton, Luke Burgess, Sam Scott, Liam Quinn, Brady Pollard, Shaun Kenny, David Stirton and Rory Currie.

Ziggy Razuki is spending most of next year overseas.

“He’s a massive loss for us as he’s been brilliant,” Jamieson added.

Mornington also has signed-up most of its off-field support staff for the coming season.

Jamieson plans to have two assistants including current assistant Craig

Lewis.

Peter Blasby remains as goalkeeping coach, David Waring continues as team manager, Kevin McAlister will conduct the strength and conditioning program, Craig Davidson will again coach the reserves and Michael Anderson is set to coach the under-18s which will be integrated with the reserves program.

At this stage Mornington expects the extensive redevelopment of Dallas Brooks Park to start next April and the club is speaking to other clubs to arrange a temporary base for home games next season.

It’s believed that Peninsula Strikers is one of those clubs.

Meanwhile Frankston Pines, Chelsea and Somerville Eagles are yet to appoint a head coach for next season.

While Donn Delaney remains favourite to win the Pines’ job one of the club’s favourite sons has thrown his hat into the ring at the last minute.

Twelve candidates have applied for the Chelsea job including “three

very well-known names” according to president Carlo Bellino.

The Edithvale-based club formed a shortlist and started interviewing applicants on that list last week.

It’s understood that Chelsea will name the successful candidate shortly.

In other news Football Victoria has announced that it will rebrand two of its three NPL leagues by changing their names.

NPL2 is now Victorian Premier League 1 and NPL3 is Victorian Premier League 2.

FV also released the men’s and women’s State League best and fairest voting and top scorer honours.

Young Rosebud striker Noah Musso completed a stellar season by winning the league best and fairest with a five-vote margin over runner-up Marcus Spivey from Mentone.

There are four State 5 leagues broken up into regional divisions – North, West, South and East – and Musso’s 26 votes were the highest

across all four divisions.
