Tower of cards is a snap ELIZA and Eva, of Bittern Primary School made it look as easy as snapping your fingers when it came to balancing and stacking the cards during last week’s inter-school activity challenge. The challenge, organised by Somerville Tyabb Rotary Club and BlueScope, aimed to highlight the importance of early learning for science technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The STEM challenge saw 10 teams and 42 pupils from Somerville, Tyabb Rail, Bittern, Crib Point, St Josephs and St Mary’s primary schools competing on Friday 8 June. The teams were tasked with building a tower from a single pack of playing cards held together with staples, cellotape, double sided tape and blu-tack. The towers underwent a wind test to measure their stability and were also judged on height, aesthetics and teamwork. Picture: Gary Sissons
Contracts ‘advance’ AGL’s gas plan Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au POWER company AGL sees two agreements signed on Tuesday (12 June) as “advancing” its plans to moor a floating gas terminal at Crib Point. The company said one of the agreements “enables berth upgrades at the Port of Hastings as well as a leasing agreement that would be required, should the AGL project go ahead”.
The other agreement involves building a gas pipeline from Crib Point to Pakenham. The project for the 300 metre long floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) has yet to receive government approvals and the go ahead from the AGL board. Announcement on Tuesday of the agreements came with assurances that completion of the gas terminal will guarantee power discounts for small businesses.
“Small businesses in Hastings, Crib Point, Bittern and towns along the pipeline route can look forward to a community energy offer delivering guaranteed discounts on AGL’s electricity and gas prices, should the project proceed,” AGL spokesman Kelly Parkinson said. The announcement also comes three days before the 15 June deadline for submissions to AGL about the plan. The Save Westernport – No Gas terminal for Crib Point group says the

coming but last week issued a statement saying: “I have long argued that South Port is not the place for industrial development and my view hasn't changed in a decade. This applies to all such proposals. “Crib Point has become a residential community over the last few decades and it has long been my view that it should not be reindustrialised. It is up to the Andrews Government to explain why it wants to reindustrialise Crib Point.” Continued Page 10

Getting in early to lift cycle of care Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au AN program under which children receive care and advice from paediatricians at school – rather than having to visit a a hospital or clinic – is being hailed a success after 12 months. The outreach strategy is aimed at children and parents in low socio-economic areas who cannot easily access such a specialist service. In many cases the parents would not be able to pay for the service or be able to transport their child. Behavioural development issues may also work to frustrate attendance. Four areas chosen for this collaboration between Peninsula Health and schools are Hastings, Frankston North, Rosebud and Mornington Park. The service has been able to expand with the help of Menzies – Caring for Kids. Paediatricians visit primary schools in these areas weekly to discuss a range of issues with children identified by the school, as well as their parents. “We do case conferencing with their parents and teachers so we are all on the same page,” Peninsula Health’s clinical director of paediatrics Kathy McMahon said. “We aim to provide expert care and management in a timely way, and their parents are grateful for it.” Last year 1000 pupils were counselled and paediatricians made 300 appointments in the first term. “Previously, when the service was being run in hospitals, sometimes the
kids never came, and we would have trouble getting in touch with their schools,” Ms McMahon said. “Now we all sit around a table to discuss a child’s development and medical problems.” The children’s backgrounds provide a clue to their situation: about 20 per cent are from families where their two parents remain together, and 50 per cent are already involved with the Department of Health and Human Services. “Some are real hard core, with lots of bad stuff happening in their families,” Ms McMahon said. “Our program aims to give them the best aspects of care and education; to get them out of that cycle. “It’s a long-term project and we have had a 50 per cent improvement this year.” Ms McMahon said she has had discussions with local GPs about joining in the program, as well as possibly involving social workers to grapple with social issues. Another improvement in the service would be assessing pre-school children so they are not “behind the eight ball” when they begin school. “The earlier you can provide intervention with development issues or speech pathology the better the longterm outcome,” she said.

Tradies warned to ‘watch for thieves’ Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A “MASSIVE increase” in the theft of power tools on the southern peninsula is worrying police. They say thieves are targeting tradies’ vehicles and trailers in Mt Eliza, Mornington, Mt Martha, Somerville, Safety Beach and Dromana during the day and overnight. “After hours, tradies should keep their tools out of sight in a locked garage if possible,” Detective Acting Sergeant Robert Vine said. “If this is not an option they should park in a well-lit area and make sure their tools are locked up.” Tradies are advised to also lock their vehicles when parked outside a job as it is less likely thieves will use force to gain entry during the day. Overnight, offenders are cutting locks on trailers and forcing canopy locks and cutting or forcing tonneau covers. Police concerns for tradies was underscored on Friday morning when a thief attempted to steal a tradie’s van while its owner was in a nearby cafe. The tradie had left his van with the motor running in a Diane Street, Mornington, car park when the would-be thief saw his opportunity. However the theft was foiled when the tradie, 25, sprinted out of the café when he saw his van being driven off. The thief fell out of the door into the gutter and into the arms of the angry tradie. The van stopped rolling when it hit several parked vars.
A Carrum Downs man has been charged with theft of a motor vehicle and will appear in Frankston Magistrates Court on 13 September. “Before tradies think what a pain it is to have to lock the car constantly, they should think, ‘Would I still be able to work without my tools?,’” Detective Vine said. “Tradies should realise that if they are offered cheap tools they have most likely been stolen – and they may well know who from. So, please, let police know.” Tradies should mark their tools by engraving them or permanently marking them with their names and drivers’ licence numbers. This makes it harder for thieves to offload them – and, hopefully, generate a greater return rate of stolen tools. The tools, batteries and chargers should all be marked. Owners of stolen power tools should actively look for them at second-hand dealers at least seven days after they have been stolen, as well as on e-Bay, Gumtree, Facebook buy, swap and sell sites, and at others like Gray’s Auctions. Secondhand dealers cannot display goods for sale within a week of receiving them. “If you see your items for sale please notify police as soon as possible and do not notify the seller,” Detective Acting Sergeant Robert Vine said. “Please help us help you.” Anyone with information on thefts, or who sees anything, anyone or any vehicle they think is suspicious, is urged to call police or Detective Acting Sergeant Robert Vine at the Mornington Peninsula Crime Unit, 5978 1400, or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
Let us be: The banner at the Westernport Angling Club building and members collecting signatures in High Street, Hastings.
Angling to stay near bay WESTERNPORT Angling Club members are calling on public support to save their club building and public toilets from the bulldozer. Signatures are being collected on a petition to be presented to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council says there is no reason for the club to be on the foreshore. The shire’s latest plan for the Hastings boat ramp and parking area shows road and landscaping works in the site now occupied by the club’s building. Club members say no other building in Hastings would meet the criteria for weighing and cleaning fish, boat trailer parking, fishing competition presentations, use of the club liquor
licence and for keeping a defibrillator. They are concerned the boat ramp parking design is on display for just six days before it goes for final approval at the 6pm, Tuesday 26 June council meeting at Hastings Community Hub. Members say their alternative plan (sent to the shire in April) has more parking spaces and fewer traffic “conflict” areas than the shire’s plan while retaining the club building and public toilets. Organiser Don Newman said the petition had more than 250 signatures. Members will continue to collect signatures at Hastings shopping centre and the Amazing Bait & Tackle shop over the coming weeks.

Shire turns down US style barbie Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au
a ‘creative freedom’ Leeworthy has lived at Red Hill for 33 years. His children Amy, Sarah and Jesse attended Red Hill Consolidated school; his grandson Ellis starts next year. He is grateful to the Red Hill Community Association for the creative freedom he was given on the project, which was
financed by Mornington Peninsula Shire. He was happy to comply with a check list of items to be included. “The Red Hill Community Association was the driving force behind the mural whereas I was merely an actor in a play,” he said.
ASPIRATIONS of a barbecue restaurant at Red Hill to double its number of diners have been dampened by Mornington Peninsula Shire. Red Gum BBQ, which bills itself as “the most authentic Southern American BBQ in Australia and the Mornington Peninsula’s best BBQ and Beer Hall, in the heart of Red Hill” wants to lift its allowable number of patrons from 85 to 170. The shire says there is not enough available parking and there are issues with noise and dealing with wastewater from the restaurant. The restaurant operates at the rear of the service station in a small shopping centre on Arthurs Seat Road. The restaurant has lodged an appeal against the council’s decision with the Victorian Civil Administrative Appeals Tribunal (VCAT), although no date has been set for the hearing. As well as the service station and barbecue restaurant the shopping centre includes a general store, real estate agency, travel agency, garden supplies shop and yoga studio. Opposite the site is a disability support services centre. The site has 34 car parking spaces, with spill over vehicles being parked on the bend in Arthurs Seat Road which has a 70kph speed limit. The council has received 26 objections to increasing the maximum number of pa-
trons at the restaurant. Objections included concerns about excessive noise, safety for traffic and pedestrians and “the current wastewater system being insufficient to accommodate the existing patron numbers”. The site is unsewered and all wastewater from the restaurant is treated and retained within the boundaries of the site through a wastewater treatment plant and disposal trenches. The shire’s traffic and transport department also opposed increasing the number of patrons with the traffic engineer stating: ““There have been ongoing traffic and parking issues with this establishment since it started operating with the current patron numbers. Any increase will exacerbate these problems and decrease the safety for pedestrians attempting to access the premises and traffic using the road, especially with a parking waiver pushing more vehicles onto Arthurs Seat Road.” In a report to the shire’s planning services committee on Monday 4 June, senior planner James Leonard stated that “such a heavy reliance upon parking on the opposite side of Arthurs Seat Road (a rural road with limited street lighting) is unacceptable from a traffic and pedestrian safety perspective”. “This is compounded by the serving of alcohol on site, meaning the potential for intoxicated patrons (even with the benefit of a designated driver) to be crossing this rural road to reach their transport.” Jackie Prossor, director of Foresite Planning and Bushfire Consultants, Rosebud,
said on Friday she did not expect a compromise solution would be reached before the VCAT hearing. She said Red Gum BBQ was an asset to the area and she was heartened by the shire’s decision to further investigate “the capacity to possibly increase patron numbers and to develop a parking transport plan that could accommodate for the increase in patrons, taking into consideration impacts on car parking amenity, pedestrian safety and improved lighting for the area”. Red Gum owner Melissa Goffin said most of the objectors had submitted signed copies of the same letter which left her doubting “the extent to which they’ll follow it through” when the issue goes to VCAT. Ms Goffin said she felt councillors now “have a desire to work collaboratively with us before the VCAT hearing for a resolution”, which was a change from the message previously given by shire officers. “We never expected to get a [amended] permit without conditions, but we’re frustrated this did not happen before,” she said. Ms Goffin said the Red Gum BBQ was “a really great business” that was entitled, in the wake of its success, to seek changes. “We’re community minded and have an ethical accreditation.” She said this accreditation recognised Red Gum’s use of meat from free range, grass fed animals; having local suppliers; paying over-award wages; use of recycled products; and energy saving processes.

Closing time: Samantha Fitzgerald and Andrew Doughton call time at their Red Hill restaurant. Picture: Yanni
Doors close at The Long Table RESTAURATEURS Samantha Fitzgerald and Andrew Doughton are “hanging up our aprons” after selling The Long Table at Red Hill South. “After 15 years, we will be closing the doors of our beloved little restaurant on Sunday 17 June,” Ms Fitzgerald said. “It is with much sadness as we come to the end of an era. However, we are also excited for what the future holds for The Long Table and our family
going forward. It’s certainly the end of an era for us, and for everyone who has been involved in our journey along the way. We know it takes a village to support a restaurant, and we want to say thank you to our extended families who have gone above and beyond in their support of our vision of owning our restaurant, to our fabulous staff who have become friends for life.” The couple is not departing the food
scene altogether: “We are keeping the business name The Long Table and doing catering and events,” Ms Fitzgerald said. The buyer is believed to be well established in the food and wine industry. The premises, in Shoreham Road, are expected to be closed for renovations for several months and reopened for the summer season. Stephen Taylor

Councils united for football team Brodie Cowburn team@mpnews.com.au THE world game at its highest level in Australia may be coming to the south-east region. Frankston and Mornington Peninsula councils have both thrown their support behind a regional bid to start a professional A-League football team. The bid, codenamed “Team 11”, is one of 15 lodged to gain a license for entry into Australia’s top football league. The bid, launched in June last year, is designed to represent the whole of the south-east Melbourne region, playing games out of a planned $170 million stadium next to Dandenong Station. Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Bryan Payne said that the aspiring club, vying for entry into both the A-League and the W-League for women’s players, would be beneficial to the peninsula. “Mornington Peninsula Shire supports Team 11 and the movement to bring an A-League team to south-east Melbourne. This would bring significant social and economic benefits to not only the peninsula but all of south-east Melbourne,” Cr
Payne said. Frankston mayor Cr Colin Hampton said a successful bid would have a widespread positive effect in the region, highlighting the potential chances it could provide to local soccer players. “Frankston City Council recognises the significant social and economic benefits that an ALeague W-League and National Youth League team would bring to south-east Melbourne, and the opportunities for growth and development it would bring to clubs and participants in the region,” Cr Hampton said. The Team 11 bid team is currently evaluating grounds across Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula that would be suitable to host preseason and youth games featuring the expansion club. Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Shire join the councils of Knox, Monash, Baw Baw Shire, Bass Coast Shire, South Gippsland Shire, Latrobe and Wellington Shire in contributing letters of support to the bid to partner a Memorandum of Understanding signed by Greater Dandenong Council, Casey Council and Cardinia Shire council. The letters were submitted to Football Federation Australia last week as part of the team’s
expression of interest for an A-League license. It was one of 15 bids that applied, with that number set to be whittled down by the FFA in the coming weeks. The current plan is for two of these bids to be chosen to enter the league. As part of the consultation process, members of the Team 11 bid have visited representatives from grassroots soccer clubs such as Mornington and Chelsea to garner support. If the bid is chosen, the plan is for the club to establish a youth setup with a focus on giving opportunities to young players from the south-east Melbourne region. If successful, the club would enter the A-League competition at the beginning of the 2019-2020 season. One of the other bidders for the coveted new ALeague team licence is a Belgravia Leisure bid led by company founder Geoff Lord, former chairman of Melbourne Victory. Belgravia Leisure took over day-to-day management of five peninsula sports and leisure centres late last year from Mornington Peninsula Shire council, on a five-year deal with ratepayers set to pay the company more than $5.7 million in management fees.

Bag ladies celebrate success
Contracts for AGL’s gas plan Continued from Page 1 Mr Hunt has been criticised for telling residents asking him about the project to visit AGL’s website. The News has asked him if he regards the floating gas terminal as industrialisation. A letter distributed to residents in April by the Port of Hastings Development Authority said repairs and additions to the Crib Point jetty were being done “should the project proceed” (“Jetty gets ready for gas” The News 15/5/18). A statement issued by AGL this week quotes the port authority’s CEO Malcolm Geier as saying he is “working with AGL as the project assessments and feasibility studies continue”. “The port team looks forward to working with AGL and the community on the next phase of what is an exciting project for the port and Crib Point,” Mr Geier is quoted as saying. A separate news release from the port authority said Mr Geier “noted that the port was fortunate to be in a position to be able to assist AGL in securing Victoria’s gas supply needs”. “The port is well placed with natural deep water channels and existing infrastructure available to facilitate projects such as AGL’s. The prospect of the port playing a part in AGL’s plans to secure the state’s gas supply needs and provide additional
Onya
competition in the domestic market is exciting.” The second agreement signed by AGL this week is with the APA Group for a gas pipeline from Crib Point to Pakenham. “Although we have been consulting with community members and governments since 2017, some community members are still understandably concerned about the project and the impact it might have,” Mr Parkinson said. “We will continue to engage and involve any stakeholders in the assessment process. “We’re carrying out feasibility into using the Crib Point Jetty because this has been identified as the best site to minimise local impact. “We are very aware that Western Port is an environmentally sensitive area and many areas within it are covered by the RAMSAR international convention on the protection of wetlands. “There is already an existing jetty that currently functions for petrol importation. “It has an existing deep water berth that does not require deep dredging and importantly it’s a relatively short distance from the Victorian gas network.” Mr Parkinson said another location “would require the construction of a new jetty and significant excavation of the bay floor”.

Ruling to balance school numbers CO-ED school Peninsula Grammar is seeking an exemption from the Equal Opportunity Act to allow it to “better manage” gender numbers in its classes. Principal Stuart Johnston told the school’s alumni that the exemption would allow it to structure waiting and enrolment lists, allocate placements, and advertise or offer scholarships to either boys or girls depending on the genders it needed to balance numbers. The Mt Eliza school, which has 41 per cent girls and 59 per cent boys after becoming fully co-educational in 1996, is seeking to extend the exemption granted by VCAT in 2013 for a further five-year term. Mr Johnston said that, under the terms of the act, students were admitted in order of application, but this tended to skew numbers and upset the equal balance of boys and girls.
“We strongly believe it is in the best interests of both our male and female students alike, both educationally and socially, for our student body to comprise an equivalent number of boys and girls in each year level,” he said. “The exemption would permit the school to continue to take positive action to even out our boy to girl ratios, thus enhancing the benefits of a fully coeducational learning environment.” Mr Johnston, who has been principal for the past nine years, said classes up to Year 9 were affected by a gender imbalance. “The perception of the community is that the numbers of boys and girls are equal. By having the exemption we can better manage that expectation,” he said. The tribunal will hear the exemption application on 16 July. Stephen Taylor
YOU’RE MORE SUITED THAN YOU MIGHT THINK
Summit focus on green wedge THE long-term protection of the Mornington Peninsula’s rural areas will be the focus of a green wedge summit on Friday 22 June at Main Ridge Community Hall, Main Ridge. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council is holding the summit as part of community consultations following the release of the final draft of its Green Wedge Management Plan on Monday 18 June. About 70 per cent of the peninsula is green wedge, which provides for conservation of the natural environment and access to informal outdoor recreation. The peninsula is also regarded as one of the most valuable food producing areas in Australia close to a major capital city. “The summit will focus on issues threatening the long-term preservation of the green wedge and stress the importance of ensuring the effectiveness of the shire’s green wedge policies are not compromised in the future,” the mayor Cr Bryan Payne said. The summit will also cover major threats to the liveability and environment of the Mornington Peninsula – such as population growth. Melbourne’s population rose by 125,400 people – up 2.7 per cent – in the year to June 2017, taking the total number to just under 4.9 million people, according to the Bureau of Statistics. “The challenge of managing the increased population extends to Mornington Peninsula Shire with greater access through Peninsula Link, the ability of people to work remotely and the pressure of peak tourism periods,” Cr Payne said. “It is vital that the immediate and future management of the demand for development of infrastructure, subdivision, tourism facilities and any
pressures to reduce the effectiveness of the urban growth boundary are managed in a manner that respects and maintains the environmental integrity of the peninsula’s green wedge.” Speakers at the summit will include Flinders MP Greg Hunt, and Michael Buxton, professor of environment and planning at the school of global, urban and social studies, RMIT University, an architect of Victoria’s original green wedge strategy. Others are Melbourne University’s Dr Rachel Carey, Mornington Regional Tourism Board chair Tracey Cooper, Peninsula Speaks’ Christine Haydon, and fifth-generation orchardist Sheryn Mock. Dr Carey is a lecturer and research fellow in food policy and sustainable food systems. She leads the Foodprint Melbourne project and is investigating what it takes to feed Melbourne. “Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors have a strong commitment to preserving the Green Wedge and coastal environments and, while it may cause debates, it is important to remember the decisions we make today on planning will decide the quality of environment we leave our children tomorrow,” Cr Payne said. The Green Wedge Summit is at Main Ridge Community Hall, 441 Main Creek Road, Main Ridge, with 9.30am arrival for a 10am start and 3pm finish. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

Buyers see upside in shopping centre Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A SYNDICATE of Chinese families has paid $39.4 million for the Mornington Village shopping centre. The sale represents a healthy profit for the Melbourne accounting firm which bought the two-level, 7963 square metre property for $25.8 million four years ago. The centre, on the corner of Main and Cromwell streets, has both Woolworths and Aldi supermarkets, The Reject Shop and Soul Pattinson Chemist, and 15 shops. The purchase price resents a 5.26 per cent yield on an annual passing rental return of

$2.071 million. When the centre last sold the yield was 7.47 per cent. Selling agent CBRE’s national director Mark Wizel said yields had come down from 6.5 per cent to the mid-fives over the past 12 months. “Yes, yields are tighter, but there’s the upside of longer-term value on well-sited assets, such as this one,” he said. “Most of these shopping centres are in the best parts of town. However, this is essentially a long-term passive investment.” CBRE’s Justin Dowers said residential population growth, along with tourism, had driven a “string of retail investment sales on the Mornington Peninsula in recent years”. These had attracted a broad range of buyers including institutions, syndicates and private investors, he said. The sales included Hastings Central Shopping Centre bought by Henkell Brothers for $32.1 million; Bentons Square (half-share, Vicinity Centres, $38.25 million); Bunnings Warehouse Hastings (local syndicate, $15.16 million); and Somerville Mall (private investor, $42.05 million). “While these sales have occurred over several years there is no doubt they reflect the growing interest in a market which investors have recognised as providing excellent growth potential,” Mr Dowers said. The fundamentals of the peninsula’s market had strengthened over recent years on the back of the completion of Peninsula Link, which extended the Mornington Peninsula Freeway, and also Eastlink. “Freeways, such as Peninsula Link, which provide traffic-light-free access to most of Melbourne, have opened the peninsula up to a much greater demographic along with a substantial increase in tourist numbers,” Mr Dowers said.
‘Slow traffic or use noise barriers’ A KEY message to come out of a traffic forum attended by about 100 residents at the Rosebud Country Club, Wednesday 30 May, was to slow traffic down to 80kph or build noise barriers on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway. Organiser Wayne Ashley said issues discussed included a lack of action by various state governments over the past 18 years to address traffic noise on the freeway – reportedly the “only freeway not to have re-surfacing or sound barriers”. Other concerns were increased traffic noise “well above 68 decibels as early as 4am creating health issues” for residents; lack of police enforcement of speeding trucks and cars, particularly in the early morning, and increased health issues caused by pollutants, such as carbon monoxide. Those at the meeting voted to seek more support from Mornington Peninsula Shire to “pressure VicRoads to address residents’ concerns”. “While the weather was atrocious it did not stop the enthusiasm of the audience,” Mr Ashley said. Mr Ashley said money raised on the night will go towards making protest banners and placards for the campaign. Stephen Taylor

PREMIER Daniel Andrews will be guest speaker at a Committee for Greater Frankston hosted brunch at the 90-seat McClelland Gallery cafe in Langwarrin on Wednesday 27 June. The Premier is likely to be asked if his government supports the proposed Frankston medical teaching and clinical research hospital – a partnership between Monash University and Peninsula Health. Committee president Fred Harrison said it would create 1000 jobs including 500 long-term jobs for doctors, nurses, allied health professionals and administrators. “This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity would transform our region with a biomedical hub serviced by a metro train station,” he said. “The Premier and our local MPs know how important this is for jobs for our future generation.” The electrification of the Frankston to Baxter rail extension is also likely to be on the menu.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Steaks raised in anticipated football clash Compiled by Brodie Cowburn A FOOTBALL match between the Frankston and Mornington juniors was played on Saturday last in the Frankston park when, after an interesting game the visitors suffered defeat by 10 points. Mr W. Cain umpired satisfactorily. We understand that Mornington has issued a challenge to play Frankston at Somerville, the losers to pay for a dinner. If the challenge is accepted an interesting game should result. *** IN the 407th and 408th casualty lists, recently published by the Defence department appear the names of two Peninsula soldiers who have made the supreme sacrifice - Pte. E. E. Cook of Somerville and Corporal W. J. Hoban, of Hastings. Keen sympathy is expressed for the relatives of the deceased soldiers. *** LIEUTENANT W. C. Pentland, son of Mr W. C. Pentland, of Cheltenham was recently mentioned in despatches by Sir Douglas Haig. Lieutenant Pentland who saw service in the Boer war was wounded in France, and is now in hospital in England with one leg amputated. He was an old South Melbourne College boy and was well known in Frankston. *** THERE was a splendid attendance at the Frankston Mechanics on Saturday evening last, when a picture entertainment was held in aid of the funds of the Langwarrin Camp. Special interest attached to the screening of the picture taken on the
occasion of the Pageant of Loyalty at Frankston, and many residents had an opportunity to see themselves as others see them. Other pictures shown were of an equally high standard. *** IN aid of the Langwarrin Camp Fund a grand concert under the direction of Miss R. P. Langley of Melbourne and Mr J. B. Jolly of Frankston will be given in the Mechanics Hall Frankston on Saturday, July 16th, by the famous Merry Eight Musical Comedy Company. The programme promises to be one of the best ever submitted locally and as the cause is of such a deserving nature a bumper house is anticipated. The Concert company are giving their services gratis so the gross proceeds will be devoted to the fund. *** MRS A. W. Taylor sailed from Sydney on Tuesday last, to assist in the work of the Australian Red Cross in Egypt. She was one of two ladies selected in the Commonwealth for the work, the other being Miss Waugh, of Sydney. It will be remembered that some little time ago Mrs Taylor’s husband disposed of his garage at Frankston to join the Flying Corps. He is now in England. *** PROBATE of the will of Sir John Madden has been applied for by the National Trustees Company. He died on 10th March last, leaving estate valued at £29,082, being realty £14,213 and personalty £14,869.
Besides the capital moneys of her marriage settlement, which she takes absolutely at once, Lady Madden is given the income of the whole estate for life. At her death the capital is divisible into six parts, of which one part is given to deceased’s son, Captain Guy Ross Madden, absolutely, and the income of the five other parts is given to the five daughters, Mrs. Harry Osborne, Mrs. Clement Valange, Mrs. Pat Osborne, Mrs. M. H. Baillieu, and Miss Lesly Madden, for life, with power to appoint the capital fund of their respective shares. Sir John Madden’s town house, “Cloyne,” in St. Kilda, and “ Yamala,” his country home at Frankston, are both to be sold shortly. *** WILLIAM Henry Wooster and Frank Whyte were charged by Constable Ryan with behaving in an offensive manner in Bay Street, Frankston, on Sunday, 9th June. Defendants pleaded not guilty. Graham Berry Bennett, a motor driver, deposed that while sitting on a seat in Bay Street on Sunday afternoon he was accosted by accused who asked for a match. Witness gave Wooster some matches. Both men were in an intoxicated condition and used most abusive and filthy language to witness, who had not seen either of them previously. Witness reported the matter to the police and both men were arrested by Constable Ryan. Constable Ryan deposed to arresting the prisoners who were both under the influence of drink.
Each defendant was fined £1, in default 48 hours imprisonment. *** AN elderly man named William Palmer was charged by Constable Ryan with being drunk and disorderly, in Hastings Road, on Monday night, 10th June. Prisoner pleaded guilty. Const. Ryan stated that he found Palmer lying in a drunken condition on Hastings Road the previous night. He was in danger of being run over and was locked up for his own safety *** A VERY successful sale in aid of the funds of the local Red Cross was held at St. Pancras Private Hospital, Frankston, on Wednesday afternoon, conducted by the Matron (Miss Cadle) and Staff. In declaring the sale open, Mrs James Grice, of Moondah, said :Ladies and Gentlemen, You all know from the interest you have taken in the Red Cross the object of your meeting today. It is to show by our actions how we thoroughly appreciate what our gallant men at the front have done and are doing, for whilst we are living in comfort and luxury we can hardly understand the privations they are undergoing. *** THE town of Hastings was quite busy last Saturday afternoon when a number of men with horses and drays were busy at work clearing earth from the side of the main road and repairing the half yard with sand. Another working bee is to be held on Saturday. ***
A WEDDING caused a great deal of interest in Langwarrin owing to the fact that the bridegroom was formerly of the 5th battalion, A.I.F., Gallipoli, and his parents are well known here for their connection with the Red Cross work and patriotic functions. The bride and one of her sisters frequently appeared at local functions and at considerable expense they journeyed from the metropolis, and their presence was always welcome. *** A MEETING of the committee of the Avenue of honour at Frankston was held in the Frankston Mechanics’ on Monday evening. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and confirmed. A letter was read from Mrs E. Goodwin, applying for three trees.Mr Jennings moved that the request be complied with. Seconded by Mr Young, and carried. Mr Dower, on behalf of Mr Hartland who was unavoidably absent, reported that the trees could not be obtained at Brunnings, but that firm knew where they were to be got, and promised to secure them, when they would communicate with the secretary. Cr Mason moved and Cr Oates seconded, that Dr Plowman be appointed treasurer to the fund. Carried. Dr Plowman moved that Saturday, 13th July be fixed as the day for planting the trees. Seconded by Cr Mason and carried. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 15 June 1918

Seagulls take their turn at the crossing Main Street, Mornington has three roundabouts and nine pedestrian crossings. It is also blessed with a healthy population of seagulls. Monofilament lines rooftops has led to more and more seagulls at ground level when they normally would be sitting on roof ridges, parapets and gutters, looking down upon us mere groundborne humans, and yes, leaving small unwelcome deposits. I was astonished to see a seagull at the edge of the pavement looking left and then right at a pedestrian crossing waiting to see if the cars (us) would stop and, when we did, proceed to walk across the crossing. Wow. An isolated event I thought, seagulls can’t be that smart. They give no intimation of being civilised when they are fighting over a carelessly tossed chip or sandwich crust. I have now experienced the phenomenon at a different level crossing. Was it the same seagull? I could not really tell. A la Natural As a result, I have become convinced that the Lashes - FullMornington set seagulls have evolved into pedestrian crossing users. This can only be because they have been denied the access to rooftops. Darwin would be calling “vindication, vindication” if he were alive and here in Mornington. I am so glad that the seagulls have been observing the sensible humans who use the crossings, and not those fools who cross at random locations. What I cannot figure out is how they can pick the smart people from the fools? It points to cognitive abilities perhaps never before attributed to seagulls, except by Alfred Hitchcock, and that is a bit of a worry. I shall continue to keep my eyes peeled for further evidence of seagull evolution. I am expecting the next evolutionary stage to be the use of found or dropped coins to buy chips.

Western Port News 12 June 2018
As a Crib Point resident, I am very concerned about the risks to our community and Western Port from the proposed AGL floating gas facility and APA Group pipeline. The risks of fire or explosion (BLEVE) during gas transportation are not to be ignored. The risks to the marine life, seagrass and mangroves around Crib Point are too high. The risks to farmers and landowners having pipelines and easements across their properties include food contamination and negative property values. AGL has information and draft assessments on its website (www.engageagl.com.au) that will soon be submitted to the state government, but these assessments need to include the concerns and feedback of people and businesses from all around Western Port. The state government (and the opposition) need to recognise that this AGL floating gas facility at Crib Point is not essential to Victoria’s future gas supply requirements. The Premier Daniel Andrews told ABC Radio on 29 May that there “is not a gas shortage. We produce in Victoria double the amount of gas we use each year”. A thorough review by state MPs Richard Wynne and Lily D’Ambrosio and the Department of Environment, Land, Water & Planning must include an Environmental Effects Statement (EES) from AGL. Anybody who is concerned about the AGL gas project and its effects on Western Port needs to put their questions in writing via the AGL website, APA website, DELWP website or their local MP as soon as possible. Dale Stohr, Crib Point
No gas shortage Has AGL been misleading the public with its claim that “securing our energy supply” is behind its urgent plan to import liquefied natural gas (LNG) into Western Port? Last week Premier Daniel Andrews admitted on ABC radio that there is no gas shortage and that Victoria
currently produces more LNG than we use. Some of AGL’s risk assessments reveal that it mightn’t be taking its environmental and safety responsibilities as seriously as it could. How can we trust that it “anticipate no harm” to the marine environment or people from the many effects of regasification, when its own research has already proven inadequate? Government must require a full environmental effects study into the proposal, and not be satisfied with research purchased to play down its inevitable risks. This facility would have a constant risk of accident or explosion. Even operating correctly it would threaten wetlands and wildlife, causing birds and people to abandon the area due to excessive noise, light and water pollution. Its invasive presence would decrease local property values and continue to hold Crib Point back in its industrial past, but without the benefit of local employment. For decades the state government has held the town back beneath oppressive, outdated zoning laws enacted to favour industry in the 1960s. The proposal’s risks might be worthwhile if it really solved a legitimate supply problem, but the real motivating factor behind this plan to import gas seems to be AGL’s desire to exploit market conditions, and Western Port’s irreplaceable environment for its own arbitrary financial gain. Julia Stockigt, Bittern
Profits from gas Premier Daniel Andrews on Jon Faine’s morning ABC radio talkback program has spelt out loud and clear the real reason why AGL wants to moor a floating gas terminal to the Crib Point Jetty, not for impending gas shortages that AGL tell us but to take advantage of a “very, very broken gas market that sees AGL landing Australian gas back (from overseas) in Victoria cheaper than we can buy it here”. He went on to say that AGL sees this as an opportunity, not because of gas shortage, but because of a market failure to make huge profits. So, it is officially out, the reason why the Crib Point community’s safety is to be put at risk as well as the environment of Western Port is because of the “very ,very profitable” business of buying excess Australian gas from overseas transported by foreign flag cheap labour ships whose seaworthiness is questioned. Rod Knowles, Crib Point
No upside in gas plans The proposed AGL and AGL/Kawasaki gas projects cannot proceed if the leaders of our federal, state and local governments meet their commitments to protect Western Port’s Ramsar wetlands. Why have these projects even been considered for Western Port in light of the proliferation of reports and recommendations for this UNESCO/ Ramsar listed site? Western Port is a designated UNESCO biosphere reserve. It is listed as a Ramsar site of international importance. In March last year the Andrew’s Labor state government issued a media release stating that $640,000 would be allocated to its new management plan over the next seven years. What a difference a year makes. This same Andrew’s government has now agreed to give $50 million to a consortium headed by Kawasaki and including AGL for a world first untested carbon capture plan [to get hydrogen from brown coal] in the La Trobe Valley with a liquid to gas plant at the Port of Hastings. AGL will also have a floating liquid natural gas terminal at the Crib Point jetty. The Turnbull government has matched the Andrew’s government gift [for the hydrogen trial]. People have rights to a safe, a quiet and pollution free environment, but the community that lives in the Western Port area will be denied all of those rights if these projects go ahead. Kawasaki’s CEO says that [hydrogen project] is an exciting joint venture, between Japan and Australia, putting our countries at the forefront of the developing clean energy industry and

bring jobs and economic growth to Victoria. Try as I might I, can’t find a recommendation in any report for bringing 300 metre long gas tankers into Western Port; any mention of a gas terminal at Crib Point; liquid hydrogen being turned into gas at Hastings. Where’s the upside that our governments have paid for? Jan Foster, Crib Point
Noise wall needed I read with interest your article “Opponents ready for roadside visit” (The News 29/5/18). There are articles about destroying the vegetation and affecting the wildlife. Articles about road safety barriers and data held by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to support the noise levels are above acceptable for a residential area. But nothing is done. I agree with the concerns raised but, like many others, I live next to the freeway and despite installing double glazing in my house I am still affected by the increased noise levels. I believe a person has a right to enjoy their home and garden without noise pollution. I have contacted the council which says it’s a VicRoads issue. VicRoads doesn’t reply to the question about when, or if, we’re going to get noise walls. Tracy Taylor, Dromana
Liberal protection If you want to protect the amenity and character of our established neighbourhoods and rural hinterland, vote Liberal at the November state election. Thanks to Labor, our General Residential Zone has been trashed and will now become a location for three-storey apartment-style developments irrespective of the established character of your neighbourhood. Labor has, without any consultation with local residents, communities or council, replaced existing nine metre height limits with an 11 metre limits and “as of right” approval for three-storey development. In 2014 the Coalition government introduced the Mornington Peninsula Localised Planning Statement to help protect the unique coastal, rural and conservation areas of the Mornington Peninsula townships and hinterland. Yet, just three years later, [Victorian Premier] Daniel Andrews has unilaterally decided to tear up the previous government’s sensible and balanced reforms in favour of inappropriate overdevelopment of our townships. These changes affect over 24,000 house lots across the peninsula and, under Labor, there will be more to come. Make no mistake, Labor and the Greens want their own Brunswick-by-the-Bay down here, but only a Liberal government will protect what we love about our peninsula. Russell Joseph, Liberal candidate for Nepean
Political spin Let’s be very clear about some of the political spin concerning the changes to planning (“Greens in blue over planning” The News 4/6/18). This is classic scaremongering by the Liberal party and it’s unfortunate that Peninsula Speaks has bought into it, despite its members’ best intentions. The Greens specifically requested the minister accelerate distinctive protection for the Mornington Peninsula. The current state legislation does not take away from the current council planning process, a three-storey building was possible before. In fact, the mandatory garden percentages actually increased for new developments. The Liberal Party spin machine on the peninsula is alive and well and full of deception. Kelvin Stingel co-convenor, Mornington Peninsula Greens, Blairgowrie
Don’t stop all stations The election promise by the federal government for the extension of electric trains to Baxter is to be commended. But it would have been courteous to make sure the state government was also involved in this proposal, as the bulk of the cost is going to be a burden on Victoria’s taxpayers. But why stop at Baxter? This is an opportunity to take public rail transport to the whole Mornington Peninsula. At least it could be taken
to Hastings or even Bittern for a start. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council also should be involved into the planning of a future rail network for the whole peninsula so we can stop building ever more freeways on our ever diminishing green spaces. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach
More train support In reply to letters sent in by Jane Turnbull (“Waiting for the train” 5/6/18) and Brian A Mitchelson (“Bring the train back to Mornington” 22/5/18) concerning the return of the Mornington train that was disbanded in 1981, I have to say that I couldn’t agree more. In November 2005, a petition with many signatures was given to the then Transport Minister Robin Cooper (now retired) by myself to have the railway line reopened. Mr Cooper was fully behind the plan. I recently received a letter from Mornington MP David Morris which stated that he did not support the plan because the train took one hour to get to Frankston. I wish to point out that what Mr Morris and his transport advisory committee don’t seem to understand is that we did not have Eden Park, Peninsula Grange units and, in a very short time, Madison Hill. No buses travel into Racecourse Road to link the 784 bus to Osborne and, I’m sorry to say, Mr Morris and his committee’s way of thinking appears somewhat Neolithic. Bungower Road, in the mornings especially, is dreadful with traffic congestion. Fred Crump, Mornington

Apportioning blame I am absolutely gob-smacked that Australians are not running to the corrupt banks to get their money out and telling them why. This amounts to approval of their corrupt practices. The question we must ask ourselves the next time someone dies from a drug overdose or a terrorist attack is “Who should we blame? The drug dealer or terrorist; the banks for laundering drug and terrorist money; or us for turning a blind eye to it all.” I suggest it is the apathetic us (I’m not included as I’ve done it). But what’s to worry? She’ll be right Mate. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach
Fishing loss A new study has found that excessive fishing has caused numbers of Australian fish, like bream and snapper, to decline by a third. The 10-year study published in Aquatic Conservation, looked at nearly 200 species at 544 sites, and found the main cause for decline was overfishing and climate change. The research confirmed that there is an “urgent need” to declare more marine reserves. “Despite public desire for marine protected areas … [they] cover less than two per cent of global marine waters.” It should come as no surprise that the fishing industry is the biggest killer of animals on the planet. Whether they are plentiful or not, all fish feel pain and suffer horribly on the journey from sea to supermarket as they are hauled up in commercial fishing nets that have been dragged along the ocean floor, tearing up whatever stands in their way. These sensitive animals are crushed to death, suffocated or thrown overboard to succumb to their injuries in the water. Altogether, more than one trillion fish and other sea animals die at the hands of humans each year. That’s about 143 sea animals for every human on Earth. Trawling is also responsible for widespread damage to coral reefs and underwater mountains, and as a result, the ecosystems that depend on these habitats are crumbling. This reckless destruction of the ocean is both cruel and unsustainable. The good news is that delicious cruelty-free options – such as fish-free fish fingers, faux-fish cakes and mock prawns – are delicious, affordable and easy to find. PETA’s free vegan starter kit has great tips and recipes to help you make the transition to a diet free of fish and other animals. Desmond Bellamy, special projects coordinator, PETA Australia

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
An Open Letter in a Normal Sized Envelope By Stuart McCullough IT’S quite old-fashioned, in a way. To send someone a letter in this day and age runs the very real risk of being viewed as either quaint or Amish or maybe a little bit of both. North Korean Supreme Leader (a title that I previously thought belonged to Diana Ross) sent a letter to President Trump, the result of which is that the summit that was on, then cancelled, is – to use the official language preferred by the State Department - back on like Donkey Kong. It must have been quite a letter. I’m making an assumption, of course. They didn’t show the actual letter on the news, just the envelope. And it was, put simply, enormous. It was big enough to fit one of those ‘sorry you’re leaving’ cards that everyone signs whenever one of your colleagues gets a new job. Perhaps Kim Jong-un got everyone in the office to scrawl a message to the President and enclosed a Myer gift card. Little wonder that the meeting’s now going ahead. Nothing generates good will more than a fifty-dollar gift card. It’ll give President Trump the chance to buy a second tie and give the red one a well-deserved rest. Then again, maybe it wasn’t a card at all. Perhaps Kim Jong-un has gigantic handwriting. The stationery must be far bigger than anything Kikki-K has to offer. Did he include a drawing? Pressed flowers? The mind boggles. Perhaps it’s simply that the letter settled a key sticking point, like which McDonalds in Singapore

they’d be meeting at. You couldn’t tell me that –despite their differences – the one thing these two would have in common is an unshakeable faith in a Big Mac. That said, I wouldn’t put it past Kim Jong-un to order a Fillet O Fish as part of some next-level Jedi-style mind game. No one ever expects a Fillet O Fish. No one. Then again, the two of them could go out for pizza. As a New Yorker, it goes without saying that President
Western Port News 12 June 2018
Trump has done many a deal over a slice of pepperoni pizza. For his Trumpiness, it wouldn’t matter what kind of pizza he ordered, so long as it had a stuffed crust. He’s definitely a stuffed crust kind of guy. As for Kim Jong-un, there’s little doubt he’d plump for a Super Supreme (Leader) family size pizza, washed down by a gallon of Diet Coke. After eating, they should go paintballing. What should we read into North
Korea’s over-sized envelope? Surely it has to be some kind of symbol. A warning, if you will. For a nation that has been accused of pushing the envelope, it can be no accident that when said envelope finally appeared, it’s large enough to use as a tent. Then again, I only saw the back. Perhaps the envelope is only as big as necessary to fit a North Korean stamp. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if every stamp carried a portrait of the Supreme Leader and there was some kind of nutso rule that said no picture of Kim Jong-un could be anything less than life-size, resulting in very, very big envelopes. It wasn’t just that Kim Jong-un sent a letter. It was that the letter was delivered by hand. Think, for a moment, what a tough job that would be. You have to fly from North Korea to America to hand deliver a letter; never letting that thing out of your sight, even for an instant. The letter probably got its own seat on the plane. You’d kick yourself if, having arrived in town early, you accidentally left it in the bathroom at the Smithsonian or spilt a little ketchup on it while at the baseball. As it was, the envelope appeared to be entirely blemish-free. As cute as a letter might be, it’s more labour intensive than, say, a phone call. It suggests that the parties are yet to establish a Kennedy/ Khrushchev-style Bat phone. Maybe they ought to. It would glow red whenever one wanted to speak to the other. I think it’d be safer than a more modern instant messaging option or
Skype. Too much could go wrong. One moment, there’s peace in our times; the next someone uses the term ‘covfefe’ which, as fate would have it, translates as ‘your mother is a goatherder’ in Korean and, in the blink of an eye, you have nothing short of anarchy. Perhaps it’s no surprise that they’re communicating by letter – where every word can be considered – rather than something more modern. It’s weird to say it, but this is potentially the most important play-date in history. All anyone can hope is that they get along; which is a big ask given the personalities involved. Each of them should bring the other a present. It’s well known that North Korea’s leader is a huge fan of basketball and computer games, so it should be easy to get him something to break the ice. Maybe not ‘World of War Craft’, lest he should go getting any ideas. As for the President, perhaps a suit from Kim Jong-un’s signature range for larger men. They’re surprisingly comfortable, not to mention slimming. It must have been some letter. I guess it doesn’t matter how big the writing or whether he used a typewriter, fountain pen or crayon; so long as things are moving forward. The mind boggles at how the discussion will go. Hunkered over Big Macs in a roped off part of McDonaldland, the fate of the Korean Peninsula will be determined. If it goes well, I’ll be sure to congratulate them. By letter, of course. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Frankston YCW slump to four straight losses DIVISION ONE
By Brodie Cowburn SORRENTO have piled further misery on Frankston YCW, claiming victory in a bruising contest at David Macfarlane Reserve on Saturday. Coming off the back of three consecutive defeats, Frankston YCW faced a tough challenge to break their losing run against the in-form ladder leaders on Sorrento’s home turf. Sorrento initially looked the better team in the early stages of the match, going into the quarter time break with a comfortable buffer of 14 points. Chris Dawes looked to stamp his authority on the contest with a number of big early marks for Sorrento. He was matched up on Frankston YCW defender BJ Credlin, with the Sorrento forward having a significant size advantage over his opponent. As the game progressed though, Credlin was able to get the better of Dawes, as Frankston YCW worked their way back into the contest with a big second quarter. Sorrento went into the half time break only three points ahead, and to make things worse they were playing a man down after Jack Grant was forced off for the game in the second quarter following a head knock. With momentum on their side and a half of football to play, Frankston YCW might’ve been considered favourites to run away with the contest, but Sorrento did well to persist despite playing a man down. Shannon Gladman stood up with a big performance to swing the game Sorrento’s way, and the Sharks went into the final term with a narrow seven point advantage. Frankston YCW remained within an arm’s reach of the game, but ultimately the strength of Sorrento’s big guns was too much to overcome, as the Sharks ran out 14 point winners
over Frankston YCW, 12.14 (86) to 10.12 (72). Chris Dawes finished with four majors for Sorrento, while Lachlan Street performed valiantly to put away four goals of his own in a losing effort for the Stonecats. Now having lost four matches on the trot, Frankston YCW will have a week off to lick their wounds and collect themselves. Mt Eliza hosted the only other game of MPNFL Division One football for the weekend, as the other teams enjoyed a bye. Mt Eliza took on Frankston Bombers in what would prove to be a difficult game at Emil Madsen Reserve. They started strongly with a two goal to zero first quarter, and went into the first break with a 13 point lead. Things didn’t get any better from that point on for the Bombers, as they struggled to make any impact on the scoreboard. Despite having more scoring shots for the quarter, Frankston went into the main break having kicked no goals and a miserable eight behinds. Mt Eliza failed to kick a goal in the third term but still went into the threequarter time break with a fifteen point advantage. Suddenly it was Mt Eliza who couldn’t buy a goal, as Frankston Bombers began to fight back while their opponents struggled. In the final quarter Mt Eliza could only muster up three paltry behinds, while Frankston Bombers were able to put two goals on the scoreboard. Despite a late fightback, Frankston Bombers couldn’t quite get over the line, as they fell to Mt Eliza in a scrappy contest 4.12 (36) to 3.15 (33). Floating to victory: Mt Eliza just got the chocolates against Frankston Bombers. Picture: Andrew Hurst
Tyabb storm home to claim second win DIVISION TWO
By Brodie Cowburn A SEVEN goal final quarter blitz from Tyabb has seen them secure their second win for the season, as they bested Devon Meadows and Bunguyan Reserve. Tyabb were slow out of the gates, and found themselves with their backs to the wall as they fell behind by 15 points at quarter time. They continued to slowly work their way into the game, and were only behind by a goal at the half time break. Devon Meadows continued to work hard but couldn’t stem the flow of goals, as Tyabb finally took the lead going into the three-quarter time break, with the margin only standing at a solitary point. Despite looking set up for a close finish, the final quarter was uncompetitive, as Tyabb blew the game apart with a stunning run of seven unanswered goals. Jake Anderson was the best on ground for the winning side, as he put away seven majors for Tyabb to take his tally for the season to 23. Tyabb are now one game clear of the bottom of the ladder, having put away Devon Meadows 17.17 (119) to 13.9 (87). Crib Point were also looking for
PAGE 38
their second win of the year on Saturday, as they hosted Pearcedale at Crib Point Recreation Reserve. Pearcedale started things off on the right foot, holding their struggling Crib Point opponents scoreless in the first term. Things went from bad to worse for lowly Crib Point, as they could only manage one goal to Pearcedale’s seven in the second term, with the lead blowing out to 49 points in half time. Crib Point were able to restore some respectability with a good second half showing, but ultimately could do little to stop Pearcedale, as the final siren sounded with Pearcedale ahead 5.6 (36) to 13.9 (87) Laughlin Cowell was best on ground with five goals for Pearcedale, with his teammate Ben Mitchell also contributing five goals in his first game for the year. Elsewhere Chelsea battled hard to secure a win over Rye at RJ Rowley Reserve in a win that took them up to second place on the ladder. Led by a four goal performance by Jack Francis, Chelsea were able to outmuscle their difficult opponents. Chelsea entered the game as heavy favourites, but Rye showed they were not to be taken lightly, with Chelsea only holding an eight point advantage at the half time break.
Western Port News 12 June 2018
After the main break Chelsea took the game by the scruff of the neck, with a six goal to two quarter being enough to see them secure a victory 12.11 (83) to 15.17 (107). In the final game of the split round, Hastings were able to claim a comfortable victory over Langwarrin at Thomas Barclay Oval. Hastings got out of the blocks with pace, taking a three goal lead into the first break. Langwarrin were put on the back foot early, and struggled to ever work their way back into the contest. Hastings’ star man Luke Hewitt contributed with his second consecutive four goal performance, while his goal kicking opponent at the other end of the ground was kept quiet. Normally dominant Langwarrin forward Jesse Murphy was limited to just one major for the game. Hastings kept their convincing lead throughout the day, running out 13.13 (91) to 9.10 (64) winners.

Frankston Pines too slick for Strikers SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines combined pace with a slick counter-attacking style to overrun Peninsula Strikers 5-2 in Saturday’s State 2 South-East derby at Centenary Park. Strikers started on a positive note and in the 6th minute a cross from Tommy Hawkins on the right set up Ryan Thompson whose shot was parried for a corner by Pines’ keeper Jarrod Nardino. Two minutes later Pines ruthlessly exposed the lack of pace in the Strikers’ defence when CJ Hodgson sent Mitch Lander clear through the middle and his left-foot strike from the edge of the area flew past advancing Strikers’ keeper Ash Kupre to make it 1-0. The home team’s defence was found wanting again in the 14th minute when it failed to deal with a long throw from the left and when Pines’ captain Graham Hill was tripped inside the box referee Manny Haractsis pointed to the spot. Hodgson had no problem converting and Strikers were staring into the abyss. Pines were forced into a reshuffle in the 28th minute when Luca Vanni had to be replaced by big Ioasa Saemo who joined Lander up front with Hill reverting to central defence. Strikers hit back in the 34th minute when Pines’ defenders failed to attack a Danny Brookes cross from the left and Thompson was at the back post to sidefoot home. Lander should have restored Pines’ two-goal cushion four minutes later but his close-range effort was blocked. In the 41st minute Chapman came off second best in a clash with Saemo which incensed Strikers’ bench but appeals to the nearby assistant referee to become involved fell on deaf ears. Saemo was booked and Chapman had to be replaced at half-time by Kevin Derry. In the 56th minute Lander again motored onto a pinpoint Hodgson through ball only to blast his attempt high and wide. Three minutes later Strikers’ central defender Michael Nugent headed wide from a Ryan Wilson free-kick from the right. In the 61st minute Brookes switched play to the right with a superb pass and Nathan Smith showed great control to bring the ball down as he charged into the area but his low shot flashed wide of the far post. A minute later it was 3-1 after Jack Carter sent Lander down the left and

his cutback was knocked in by Saemo from point-blank range. Kupre was injured in the process but after a lengthy treatment period was able to continue which was just as well as there was no back-up keeper on the bench. In the 72nd minute Steve McClelland took too long to clear allowing Lander to block then tuck away the rebound to make it 4-1. A brilliant break in the 84th minute was triggered by Kurt Wagner-Goldsworthy who sent Hodgson clear on the right and his low cross in behind the defensive line was slammed in by Saemo to make it 5-1. In the 91st minute Wilson did well on the left of the area and his cutback found Thompson who was brought down. Wilson converted the resultant penalty to round off the scoreline. When the final whistle sounded it confirmed what we’d all known for some time – there was only one team out there that was prepared to meet the physical and mental demands of a derby. The other team received a scathing assessment of its performance from

coach Lenny Greenan in a hushed Strikers’ dressing room straight after the match. Femi Orenuga’s association with the club has ended due to visa problems. It’s believed that the former Everton academy striker has been sent back to the UK by Australian authorities. Although Strikers are now five points behind Pines in the race to avoid the drop there is some good news at Centenary Park. The club hopes to sign two players from South Melbourne’s NPL under20s squad and another two from State 1 South-East outfit Morwell Pegasus this week. Meanwhile Pines’ defender Luke Murray dismissed last week’s report that linked him with a switch to Seaford United but it’s believed that Somerville Eagles are keen to sign Pines’ playmaker Will O’Brien to bolster their promotion push in State 5 South. In NPLW news local consortium Southern United lost 5-0 to Heidelberg United at Monterey Reserve on Sunday but made its more fancied opponent work every inch of the way. Southern continued its player devel-
opment policy with two 16-year-olds, Sarah Tebbutt and Niamh Mclure, making their senior debuts in defence. Hong Kong international Avery Lau leaves in early July to prepare for the Asian Games. Southern gaffer Aaron Myatt is keen to bring in a striker and a central defender before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month.

Western Port News 12 June 2018
In NPL2 news Langwarrin lost 1-0 at home to Box Hill United last Saturday. Attacking midfielder Mehdi Sarwari made his debut for Langy but former Melbourne Victory midfielder Callum Goulding has quit the club and is set to sign with another NPL outfit. Langy had the best of the chances in the first half but Box Hill keeper Matt Nemes was in fine form denying Liam Baxter, Matt Luak and John Kuol. Two minutes into the second half the visitors struck in a lightning-quick break that proved to be the decisive moment of the contest. Anthony Rizk motored clear on the left and his far-post cross picked out the unmarked Andrew Le Page whose low first-time volley gave Langy keeper Robbie Acs no chance. Box Hill proved to be tough to break down for the rest of the match while maintaining a threat on the break. Langy is considering whether or not to add to its senior squad and a decision is imminent given that the NPL transfer window shuts this week. In State 3 South-East news Skye United dropped to third after Brighton defeated Seaford United 2-0 at Dendy Park last weekend thanks to an 18thminute goal from David Nicholas and an injury-time second from Nick Bale. With Boroondara-Carey easily accounting for Collingwood in the other catch-up match Skye now is two points off the pace. Skye should learn the extent of the recent knee injury to captain Marcus Collier this week while defender Saj Sugrim has joined Endeavour United. In State 4 South news Baxter has lost midfielder Matt Morgan to Hampton Park United while striker Liam Kilner has quit citing work reasons. But Baxter head coach Francis Beck is buoyed by the anticipated influx of five newcomers from local clubs and they are all expected to train at Baxter Park this week. Next weekend’s games: SATURDAY 3pm: Langwarrin v Ballarat City (Lawton Park), Geelong Galaxy Utd v Southern Utd (Banyul Warri Reserve), Malvern City v Mornington (Kooyong Park), Peninsula Strikers v Mazenod (Centenary Park), Frankston Pines v Doncaster Rovers (Monterey Reserve), Brighton v Skye Utd (Dendy Park), Seaford Utd v Noble Park Utd (North Seaford Reserve), Springvale City v Baxter (Ross Reserve), Somerville Eagles v White Star Dandenong (Somerville Secondary College), Aspendale v Bunyip District (Jack Grut Reserve).

Clarke claims third in “brutally hard” race By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON Cycles owner Brad Clarke competed in one of the world’s toughest mountain bike races in South Africa on Wednesday 28 March. Clarke partnered with common competitor, Rohin Adams, in the gruelling eight-day Absa Cape Epic race and covered more than 650km of rugged land. With 650 teams entered into the competition, the pair managed to claim third place in the Masters category (40-49 years old) and finished 30th overall. For Clarke, it was his second time attempting the race which included 13,530m of climbing – that’s one and half times higher than Mt Everest and the first word that came to his mind when describing the course was “untamed”. “It’s just rugged, raw and brutally hard,” he said. “Every single kilometre you have to work for.” “There are no easy trails, and if a section did look easy, it’d be full of sand or jagged rocks.” While the track is incredibly demanding physically and mentally, Clarke said that that is exactly the sort of challenge which lures him back. “It’s a real adventure and an amazing event,” he said. “It’s extremely rewarding after you’ve put in all of that hard work in training, and then to complete the course as well.” It has taken Clarke just over six months of training to prepare for the race in which he competed against some of the best riders from around the world.
Having competed once before, he knew exactly what it took to prepare for the event but said it was “actually tougher than the first time”. “I was a bit naive [the first time] and didn’t realise what I had gotten myself into,” he said. “That’s why it was tougher this time as I knew exactly what I was in for. Whenever I got unwell in the lead-up to the race, it would stress me out a lot. “You’ve got to get yourself to be able to commit to really hard, tough training to get to that top level. There are more hours a week that you need to put in, and it’s a bit more specific training to the race as well as you need to be able to ride for 100 kilometres at full speed. “You have those ups and downs in the preparation but [having competed before] it helped give me the confidence that I was undertaking the right training.” There was no financial gain for Clarke in undertaking this adventure but he said that overcoming the challenges of the course has been a massive reward. Clarke doesn’t believe he is ready to back up again next year but said he would “definitely like to go back”. He thinks 2020 would be a possibility but it would “depend on my situation and how I’m travelling.”

Western Port push persistent Gators BASKETBALL
THE Western Port Steelers fought valiantly but were unable to pull off an upset in their clash against top of the table Shepparton Gators in Division One Big V competition last Saturday. Western Port’s Dylan Travis did his best to help his side to victory with an impressive 31 point performance, but ultimately it was not enough to earn a win. Shepparton Gators proved too strong for their opponents, with Matt Bartlett, Cameron Vines, and Spencer Coleman scoring 28, 26, and 22
Western Port
points respectively. Western Port stayed in contention, but ultimately fell short by 9 points (79-70) as Shepparton secured their eighth consecutive win. Elsewhere in Division One, the Chelsea Gulls squared up against the Sunbury Jets in a clash they would have been strongly expected to win. The 3rd vs 11th clash saw Chelsea stretch their muscle to extend their winning run to five straight games. The bulk of Chelsea’s points came from Corey Standerfer and Matthew Brasser, who scored 45 points between them. Sunbury Jets remained in the con-
test, but could not push on to claim an upset win, as the Chelsea Gulls secure the victory (81-73). In Division Two Basketball, the Southern Peninsula Sharks secured 4th place on the table with an emphatic victory over last place North East Bushrangers. Colin Voss was the standout performer for Southern Peninsula, as he put up 26 points, making 10 of his 15 attempted shots. Lloyd Wright was the shining light for the Bushrangers with a valiant 23 point effort, but it was little help as his side went down to the Southern Peninsula Sharks (61-77).
Last Sunday also saw the Mornington Breakers pull of a dominant victory over the Coburg Giants in Women’s Division Two Competition. The two sides, placed 8th and 9th going into the round, looked as if they would be evenly matched at the start of the game, but the final score told a far different story. Ashleigh Wright and Erin Ludwick were the star performers for Mornington, as they put up 53 points between the two of them. Coburg never got close to a rampant Mornington, with the final margin standing at an astonishing 31 points (51-82)
Big V competition has been on break as the teams earned a well deserved rest, but will be back up and running this weekend. This weekend will see the Mornington Breakers travel to Darebin Stadium to take on the Collingwood All Stars in Women’s Division Two action. In Men’s Division Two, Southern Peninsula Sharks will take on Pakenham Warriors next Sunday. Division One action on Saturday will see Shepparton Gators host the Chelsea Gulls, while the Sunbury Jets will host the Western Port Steelers.
