Ability gives rise to extended courses

FOR a small school, the Somerville Rise Primary School community certainly thinks big. Because of its impressive academic results, students have been selected several years in a row for enrolment in the Victorian High-Ability Program, an Education Department-run virtual program which provides high ability students with extension courses in mathematics and English. High ability practice leader Adam Poole, pictured, said the program enabled the school’s grade 5 and 6 participants to interact online with students from other schools who may have the same interests and learning styles and provided them a social outlet as well as academic enrichment. Selection for the program is based on results, and Mr Poole said the school was proud that students had been selected several years in a row for a program that “really helps to bring the best out of the students”. He said the school ran several enrichment programs for high ability students and had been selected to grow golden wattle seeds for the Australia Seeds in Space program. The seeds had already been into space for six months before returning, first to Japan last year, and then to Australia for quarantine. Mr Poole said NASA was interested in determining whether seeds can survive exposure to the space environment and germinate to provide a future food source. He said students were ecstatic to be part of the international program and had embraced the challenge. They had joined students from across Australia who have been selected to be part of the scientific inquiry, which will compare the seeds to control seeds that have not been to space. Liz Bell

Call for inquiry into trust ‘approvals’ Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Victorian Governor Linda Dessau has been asked to investigate the “due process failings” of state government departments involved in approving appointments to the Bass Park Trust. Although no longer Mornington Peninsula Shire’s chosen representative on the trust, Cr David Gill never received approval from the Governor in Council during the four consecutive

years he held that position. His place on the trust was filled last June by the now mayor, Cr Anthony Marsh, although Cr Gill is still invited to attend meetings by the trust (“Trust says ‘no’ to council’s chosen delegate” The News 15/6/21). Cr Marsh said on Friday that he thought it “inappropriate and unnecessary” for Cr Gill to write to Ms Dessau as he was not the shire’s “appointee or mayor”. He said Cr Gill had not told him about the letter to Ms Dessau.

“I have been informed by the office of [Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister] Lily D’Ambrosio [my] appointment has been signed off by the minister. I do not believe it has been signed off by the premier [Daniel Andrews] or governor at this stage,” Cr Marsh said. “While it would have been great to have had the appointment ratified by now, I suspect it’s a relatively low priority for the premier and governor (“Marsh ‘excited’ by trust ‘progress’” The News 26/7/21).”

COME AND SEE THE CHICKENS ROAMING FREE IN THE PADDOCK!

In his letter to the governor Cr Gill said most people “elected or appointed” to the trust “have waited years for your approval”. He said the trust — which “looks after” land donated by the public nearly a century ago, including Flinders Golf Course and yacht club — was one of three community committees on the peninsula that needed the Governor in Council to ratify appointments. “Relevant ministers, Department of Environment Land Water and Planning (DELWP) and the local MP have

allowed these appointments to stay in limbo for up to 10 years, resulting in legal issues for the committee,” Cr Gill stated. “Could you please investigate, as this should have been a simple administrative procedure of DELWP forwarding names to you after finalising propriety checks? “After all, the representatives are publicly elected excluding the local councillor representing [the shire] and two representatives from the golf course.” Continued Page 5

Music’s back after lockdown blues Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au LOCKDOWNS have ended and the Mornington Peninsula is coming out of hibernation to the tunes of eclectic music at Ninchfest in March, but with a twist on previous years. The festival, which started six years ago at St Andrews Beach and, apart from last year’s hiatus due to COVID restrictions, will for the first time be held over two days, with a twilight session on Friday 4 March and a full day on Saturday 5 March. The event is a drawcard for music lovers and a launching pad for emerging musical talent. It also claims the “local” tag with legitimacy, being run by Drew Heyes and his wife Sal, who head a team of five directors. A musician, Heyes founded the festival to provide a dedicated music festival for the peninsula and to showcase the talent of local musicians, as well as those from further afield. While it started off as a festival that largely featured punk, it has morphed into an event for all the family, featuring all genres. It is a little like Woodstock coming to the peninsula, without the camping. Heyes is proud of how the festival has matured and evolved in the past six years and hopes this year’s event gives house-bound music enthusiasts the post lockdown escapism and live music hit they have been missing. “It started out as just an idea to

give the peninsula its own festival, and I had already been involved in several other local projects, including EcoFest and raising money for the fight against the Gunnamatta sewage outfall, so I just put the word out to friends,” he said. “The response was great and while it is a lot of work to organise, and it’s certainly a labour of love and not a way to make money, it’s become a great festival and a key event on the peninsula.” Heyes, who has drummed for alternative bands such as Will’s Afro, Stiff Richards, Tub’o’Vas, and Butter and now with Rennie and the Shitchair, says the festival is a rare opportunity for young bands playing alternative music to hit the stage and network with other musicians and industry people. “One of our missions is to expose up-and-coming bands and musicians, particularly those from the peninsula, and to have a cultural mix, as well as more girls on stage, because many artists don’t get the coverage they deserve,” he said. “We have some great African and Indigenous musicians, and Australiana rock and roll. It’s truly a mixed bag and has something for everyone, and it’s very family friendly.” There will be more than 25 acts at Ninchfest 5, including Bad//Dreems, Cable Ties and The Meanies, food vendors and refreshments from breweries, and plenty of room for picnics on the lawn.

Quick responses to calls for help FIREFIGHTERS quickly extinguished a spreading grass and scrub fire along Dandenong-Hastings Road, Pearcedale on Friday afternoon (11 February). Pearcedale and Baxter fire brigades responded to the call just after 1.30pm. Firefighters were mopping up at the scene of the 50m metre by 100 metre fire for about one hour afterwards. One week later, Hastings SES volunteers were called out to patch up damage in Mornington on Friday, after a car smashed through the window of the Snooze bed store in Bungower Road. No-one was injured, however emergency services have used the incident to remind drivers exiting a car park to do so slowly, and to always ensure the car is in the correct drive position.

Damaging cultural issues By Hugh Fraser* DAMAGING cultural issues have developed within Mornington Peninsula Shire Council that are having a significant impact on the democratic rights of the community and good governance of the Shire. I believe the risk of this development could have been avoided with timely advice by management to council when making critical decisions, as required by the Local Government Act 2020. One issue includes the right of the community to be heard and consulted on what were proposed as the rules governing council meetings procedure. These governance rules, as they now stand, are patently undemocratic. They dispense with council notice of motion procedures which enabled any councillor to move a notice of motion and by resolution extract accountability from the CEO as to the day-to-day management of council operations by the CEO. It seems that this particular rule was developed secretly by a majority bloc of councillors working with management, not telling or giving prior notice to all councillors. Management should have informed and given prior notice of this proposed rule to all councillors and advised them that such a proposed rule would require community consultation. More recently, the mayor Cr Anthony Marsh has set his own meetings procedural directions.

HUGH Fraser These new directions limit the right of councillors to publicly question management in public council meetings. As I see it, these directions were made without the mandatory statutory community consultation or even a council resolution. Equally surprising was the initial approach last year by senior management to the planning minister seeking to withdraw a council approved proposed planning scheme amendment process. Council had designed this amendment – and approved by council resolution - to put in place a process to resolve the conflict between the Tyabb community and the Peninsula Aero Club over the use of the Tyabb airfield. The approach to the minister by senior management was made without the prior approval of council by resolution. There are statutory provisions

which prohibit councillors from improper influence and giving improper directions to management. So how could this approach to the minister lawfully come about without community consultation, a prior council debate and resolution? Then there are issues of reasonable apprehension of bias in council decision making. This year, the CEO’s four-year contract of employment will come to council for a decision as to whether council ought to renew or advertise his contract. This will excite much community interest and debate within council as it forms a view as to whether to renew or advertise his contract. Cr Marsh is quoted in a shire news release (9/12/21) as saying: “Retaining a high performing CEO is essential for ensuring the best outcomes for our community. This is a vote of confidence from council in the CEO to lead the shire into 2022 and beyond” (“Cents a reason to correct CEO’s $425,000 package” The News 19/1/22). Has council already secretly debated and voted to extend the CEO’s contract beyond 2022 without telling the community or is this yet to be considered by council and if so, when? These are serious questions to be answered after proper inquiry by the responsible authorities. *Hugh Fraser is a barrister, Legal Services Board member (2007-2010) and Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor (2012-2020) representing Nepean Ward.

Money ready to flow for group projects MORNINGTON Peninsula community and charitable organisations can apply for South East Water’s 2022 Community Grants program until 4 March. The $500 to $10,000 grants are available to help groups undertake community projects. Projects must support the health and liveability of Port Phillip and Western Port bays and nearby areas, such as beaches, creeks and wetlands. Now in its third year, the program has so far granted $134,000 to 34 community groups. In 2021, the program helped buy equipment for Mornington Life Saving Club and Baxter Fire Brigade, pay for education programs at the Australian Marine Mammals Association, environmental activities at Nepean Conservation Group and Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association. Food for Change, at The Briars, Mount Martha used its $5000 to install a drip irrigation system to help grow fruit, vegetables and herbs which are donated to food relief agencies across the Mornington Peninsula. Food for Change chief executive and founder Matt Donavon said the charity was “very grateful to have received the grant and the irrigation has already helped us to plant fruit trees which will help in our efforts towards providing much needed food relief to the local community”. Applications close 5pm Friday 4 March. Details: southeastwater.com.au/grants

Peninsula Grammar student wins invention award IT was a great end to 2021 for fourteen-year-old Josh Cowie from Peninsula Grammar. He was awarded $10,000 after being named a national winner of Origin’s Little Big Idea competition in the Grade 7-8 category. Selected from more than 1,100 entries, Josh took top spot in his age category for his ‘YouView’ idea, an app featuring software that detects and recognises micro facial expressions to assist people with profound and complex disabilities who are also non-verbal. Josh was inspired after taking part in a survey that made him think about how people with disabilities interact with others and throughout the community. He wanted to come up with an idea that meant everyone can have a voice, every time. ‘YouView’ was recognised for its creativity and innovation by a panel of experts including biomedical engineer and inventor, Dr Jordan Nguyen; former NSW Young Australian of the Year, Macinley Butson; founder of Australian not-for-profit SolarBuddy, Simon Doble, and Origin’s General Manager of Future Energy

and Technology, Joanna Nelson. Origin’s Little Big Idea competition encourages Australian kids to explore their creative potential to solve real-world problems. Origin’s Head of Retail Jon Briskin said, “We are incredibly proud of the competition and the role it plays in encouraging the change-makers of tomorrow to think about real life problems in new and exciting ways.” Peninsula Grammar Principal, Stuart Johnston, said “I congratulate Josh for his wonderful achievement. One of the key principles at our school is ‘inspiring performance’, and Josh’s invention is a true illustration of that ethos”.

Church steps up for Tonga relief FOLLOWING the recent Tongan volcanic eruption which caused a tsunami and dust cloud that devastated the island, the Western Port Uniting Churches and Opportunity Shop people combined to box up urgently needed items that had been donated through the Parish Op. Shop at Crib Point, for shipment to Tonga. On Monday 31st January, approximately fifteen members of the churches and Op Shop met at the Hastings Uniting Church to wrap, and box selected household goods and linen. Later this week, these labeled boxes will be transported to Keysborough where the Mission Liaison Group (MLG) are packing a shipping container enroute to Tonga. The first container is planned to leave Melbourne late February and there is the possibility of another container leaving a month or

so later. MLG, a voluntary group has been supporting Pacific Island communities for many years, especially after natural disaster events and the Tongan eruption is no exception. Many communities have been wiped out due to the massive tidal waves. As volcanic dust settles over the landscape, crops will be severely diminished for many years. These people will be in desperate need of basic living requisites for some considerable time. At short notice, the churches and Op Shop were pleased to load up these essential supplies and contribute to the Uniting Church relief effort via MLG, which continues to play an integral role in the health and welfare of Pacific Island communities.

Sharing approach to better mental health outcomes Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THREE young men who have experienced loss and trauma are encouraging others to “speak and share” as a way of normalising mental health challenges and reaching out for support. After watching friends and family members also struggle through difficult times, the trio, all teachers on the Mornington Peninsula, have developed programs and social media platforms to help people build the confidence to reach out and have conversations about mental health. Ben Farish, one of the founders of the not-forprofit Speak and Share, said their philosophy was “a problem shared is a problem halved”, and their programs were built around giving people the confidence to be vulnerable, speak up and get support. Research shows about three million Australians are struggling with mental health and the turbulent years of school, work and family life, all mixed with COVID, have created an urgent need for more support services. Mr Farish said young men were often suffering silently in crisis, because there was still an outdated stigma of weakness in admitting to feeling depressed or anxious. “Young men traditionally don’t easily open up and share, so you could have a friend or family member who is struggling, and you wouldn’t necessarily know how to help,” he said. “Our programs aim to connect with the com-

munity by implementing school-based programs, sporting club programs, presenting to staff within corporate organisations and conducting broader awareness. “Our passion is to help people, and we aim to do that by facilitating the conversation around mental health, and normalising feelings of depression and grief. “Everyone goes through it, but you don’t have to go through it alone.” The three friends, Mr Farish, Mason De Wit and Nathan Scagliarini, are all health and physical education teachers who have worked together to create strategies and engaging videos that take the mystery and taboo out of something that is a part of life. Their next step is a joint venture with peninsula-based The Monkey Movement, which specialises in coaching and breath work. The two organisations have teamed up through their shared goal of creating happier and healthier communities, by running group events that show people there are tools to help overcome mental health challenges. The Monkey Movement’s Sam Crawford said their shared vision was to “create some serious change and help save lives”. “This work is amazingly important after such tumultuous times throughout the last couple of years,” he said. “As a younger person, I wish there were tools to help with the stressors of everyday life.” To find out more go to speakandshare.com and themonkeymovement.com

THE Voices of Mornington Peninsula group will support Dr Sarah Russell as a candidate for the seat of Flinders in the federal election expected in May. The group’s first choice, Claire Boardman, withdrew from the electoral race just weeks after being chosen saying it was more important to stay in her job as the state government’s deputy commander for COVID (“Candidate withdraws due to Omicron effect” The News 24/1/22). Now, after a series of meetings to decide whether to actually back a candidate, Voices of Mornington Peninsula last weekend decided on Dr Russell. Five candidates are already campaigning for the seat held by retiring Liberal MP Greg Hunt for the past 20 years are Zoe McKenzie (Liberal), Surbhi Snowball (Labor), Colin Lane (Greens), Despi O’Connor (independent) and Morgan Jonas (United Australia Party). Ms O’Connor, a Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor, announced her candidature after failing to be endorsed by the VMP group. Voices of Mornington Peninsula co-chair Janelle Magee said in a news release that the group decided to endorse Dr Russell at a meeting at Dromana on Sunday (13 February). A majority of the 75 members of VMP at the meeting voted to endorse Dr Russell. She said it had always been VMP’s goal “to improve the political representation for residents on the peninsula”. Dr Russell trained as a critical care nurse be-

Casting a line for Mornington Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au FISHING broadcaster, writer, tackle shop owner and Futurefish Foundation director David Kramer says he might seek Labor Party pre-selection for the state seat of Mornington “if someone taps me on the shoulder … and I’m in the mood”. Labor is expected to wait until after mid-year before choosing its candidate for the seat held by Liberal David Morris for the past 16 years. Mr Morris missed out on being reendorsed by the Liberal Party which chose Chris Crewther as its candidate. Mr Crewther held the federal seat of Dunkley for one term (2016-2019) after it had been held by former minister Bruce Billson for the previous 20 years. Mr Crewther lost the seat in 2019 to Labor’s Peta Murphy. Mr Kramer, who missed out to Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Paul Mercurio on being Labor’s candidate for Hastings, said on Thursday that he was unsure if he would seek pre-selection for Mornington. “I did put my hand up for Hastings because no one else had, although I had never before been a member of any political party. If someone tapped me on the shoulder [for Mornington] I’d have to have a look,” he said. Mr Kramer, who has a reputation for being close to the premier, Daniel Andrews, said he had “never taken him out in my boat fishing”. “I work on fishing policy for the government and get labelled [as the premier’s fishing mate] for that.

has a landslide win ahead of it [at the November election]. Mr Kramer said he was “not a fan” of celebrities being endorsed as candidates. “My passion is about making a difference and Mornington is [now] considered winnable. “Imagine if Labor held all three state seats on the peninsula? It would get a fair bit of attention [from a reelected Labor government]. “These seats [Mornington, Hastings and Nepean] have to be hard fought this time.”

THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

9GEM, 10pm

Akira Kurosawa’s masterful Seven Samurai is brilliantly transplanted to Mexico in this classic western. Mexican farmers, who are regularly pillaged by a local bandit (Eli Wallach) and his gang, turn to a gunman (Yul Brynner, left) to ﬁx their problem. The black-hatted rider does that and more by putting together a mighty team of fellow gunﬁghters (including Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson and Horst Buchholz) to take on the bad guys. Saddle up for a great ride.

THURSDAY

LAW & ORDER: SVU

TEN, 8.30pm

“In this job, you never know what anyone is capable of,” declares detective Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay, right) in tonight’s new episode of the world’s longest-running scripted TV series. But, if there’s one thing we can count on, it’s that this beloved crime series can still shock audiences after more than 20 years on air. Tonight, Rollins (Kelli Giddish) and Velasco (Octavio Pisano) investigate a popular ﬁghter whose world is full of secrets.

MONDAY

MASTERMIND AUSTRALIA

SBS, 6pm

Mastermind is the sort of show that makes you smarter; how many TV series can boast about enlightening the population? It doesn’t matter an iota if the topic is late ﬁlm star Heath Ledger, or Paul Coehlo’s The Alchemist, the obvious obsession and attention to detail of the contestants is inspiring and gobsmacking. This week, the fourth season premieres, and host Marc Fennell (above) promises the questions he ﬂings onto the contestants will be harder than ever. “This year, the contenders are sharper, the topics are wilder, and the questions are harder,” warns Fennell.

More than just about gardening and plants, this beloved Aussie stalwart is blooming with a cast of knowledgeable and passionate presenters who obviously live and breathe ﬂora and fauna. After a summer break, Gardening Australia returns with its 33rd season, and it’s a celebration of the New Year. Lovable host Costa Georgiadis discovers a plant-swapping scheme and Jerry Coleby-Williams shows how to grow, harvest and roast your own coﬀee. Sophie Thomson walks through a garden that demonstrates how a small-city home can be bursting with life. Tips and tricks include demystifying gardening jargon and how to keep a maidenhair fern alive. Sophie Thomson is a presenter on Gardening Australia.

War is over, but memories remain Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au

LIKE most people who have experienced the evils of war and returned home, the horrors of starvation, family separation, and physical and emotional abuse often travel with them and continue to silently haunt their memories. Film producer Thomas Watson knew the emotional and physical torture his Dutch-Indonesian grandmother Yvonne Watson (nee Holman) suffered at the hands of the Japanese Imperial Army during WWII was deep and painful, but he, nor anyone else in the family, dared speak of them. Now, with the passing of his beloved grandmother in 2013 at the age of 91, and a few years of digital story-telling under his belt, Watson has decided the shocking history of the treatment of internees during the Japanese invasion of Indonesia – which had been a Dutch colony for 300 years - needed to be told. He and filmmaker Jean-Baptiste Breliere have researched the experiences of internees in the Indonesian camps where his grandmother and hundreds of others were enslaved after the Japanese occupation and until being evacuated by the Australian Red Cross in 1946. The result is the documentary, The Past Ended on Mango Street, a moving and confronting film about war crimes committed in the Asia-Pacific theatre of WWII. “It’s such an obscure period of the

YVONNE Watson and Elliott and, inset, Thomas and Yvonne Watson and grandson, Thomas Watson . Pictures: Supplied war, and there really wasn’t much written about the way the Dutch were treated in the concentration camps in Indonesia,” Watson said. “But it is well known that they were often mistreated, beaten and starved, and some of the women were used as comfort women, or sex slaves.” While he did not uncover the whole story about the treatment of his grandmother, Watson said he came to realise that families all over the world continue to hold the pain of loved ones lost at war, or of those who returned

with so much horror to tell they could say nothing. “My grandmother never spoke of the war, she had a reserved nature, a kind of stoic quietness, but the family knew that she had suffered,” he said. “I loved my grandmother, she was a much-respected part of the family, but I wish now that I had been able to get closer to her and I regret I didn’t talk to her more. “I think she was traumatised and that led to her silence. As a family we were terrified that asking would make

her relive those experiences and we didn’t want that. “She did say some things at times, but they didn’t have much context without really knowing what went on. It wasn’t until I started my own investigations that I discovered how bad things were in the camps, and that my grandmother had been crammed into a small room with 15 others and forced to work in the Japanese garden, beaten and starved. “One story I remember my aunt telling me is that the women had to wear aprons to weed in the hot tropical sun. One day my grandmother returned from work and her apron wasn’t dirty, so they beat her severely because they assumed she hadn’t been working hard enough.” Family separation was a strategy of the Japanese Imperial Army in the camps, and while the-then 24-yearold ‘s two younger brothers and her mother were in the same camp, they were forbidden to contact or to talk to each other. Her father escaped internment because he was considered “native Indonesian”, until one day he was caught listening to a foreign broadcast about the war and beaten so severely he never fully recovered mentally. Watson also remembers being told that his great-grandmother – like many of the captive women - was clever enough to sew money into her dresses to stop it from being confiscated by her captors, and this gave the family some income after the war. One of the most confronting things Watson said he learned was that women in Lampersari were often

coerced into having sex with Japanese soldiers in order to get food, and he believes his film is the first to reveal this in a documentary. At the end of the war, the Australian Red Cross rescued many of the internees on a hospital ship, as at the time the Indonesians led by Sukarno were throwing a bersiap (revolution) to gain independence and were brutally attacking and killing Dutch civilians. Holman family members were among the lucky ones, taken by ship to Australia for a six-month stay in a Sorrento seaside hotel to recuperate. While the story is one of hardship and terror, Watson says his grandmother’s time in Sorrento changed her life and set the course for a happy future. She met RAAF pilot Thomas Watson, who followed her to Amsterdam when she left the camp and asked her to marry him. The couple later moved to the UK, and then back to Australia, eventually having five children (one passed away at birth) and making a new life together. Watson, 30, says making the film, which is available on Vimeo and has been shown in Sydney and The Hague, was a “cathartic” experience, as he now feels he understands his grandmother a bit more. “It was a brief period of her life, but I felt it needed to be told,” he said. “And I have discovered that telling her story has enabled me to get close to her in a way and have that intimate connection with her that I wanted.” The Past Ended on Mango Street can be viewed at vimeo.com/ondemand/tpeoms

Shire, VicRoads avoid rubbish responsibility Having had phone contact with both the relevant Mornington Peninsula Shire Council department and VicRoads over the past two weeks, it becomes evident that neither accepts responsibility for the timely collection of litter and general dumping along peninsula roads and beach side car parks. Each refers inquiries to the other. Therefore, I would urge said departments to meet and plan an ongoing management strategy which includes prompt and daily emptying of the coastal bins, twice daily on public holidays (when the bins are jammed to overflowing), to prosecute unsightly nature strip dumping, and also implement some anti-littering signs at appropriate sites. Such a plan should then be published in this newspaper as a reference to both rate paying residents and tourists. In other news, the $600,000 gold plated dunny block at Safety Beach is coming along at rapid speed. I would anticipate a grand opening sometime in 2024, perhaps with an exciting chook raffle and pony rides for the kiddies. David Martin, Mount Martha

PM’s ‘fiddling’ visit So, the Prime Minister Scott Morrison has paid the Mornington Peninsula a visit (“PM declines offer to eat cake” The News 8/2/22). Did he come to address his government’s handling of the climate crisis, or of the pandemic, or rising violence against women, including here on the Mornington Peninsula? No, he dropped into Mount Eliza, the shops, did a bit of hairdressing and pondered a plate of cakes. Talk about fiddling while home burns. Maureen Donelly, Mornington

Wave for the PM Short back and sides prime minister and make it snappy. I ain’t got all day to hang around Mount Eliza as I’ve got a business to run taxes to pay and more jabs to get if I’m to escape to Bali with all the other beautiful people who enjoy a bit of the illegal funny baccy (“PM declines offer to eat cake” The News 8/2/22). Besides, I heard that the local ALP has invited Albinoni, or some Elbow bloke, to drop by for a bit of free body sculpturing and nail and toe clipping, all covered by his gang’s election expenses. Do you have a definite date for a federal stoush, prime minister or is this just an off the cuff helicopter job as its popularly known? Good to see you had a fellow traveller to show around looking for a gravy train too. We actually have a Puffing Billy down at Moorooduc if you are looking for a smoke and mirrors job.

Still trapped Despite offers of solutions and assistance from the Save the Mornington Peninsula Kangaroos group, 500 to 600 kangaroos are still trapped on a property near Cape Schanck where they have been since late September 2021, when the opening in the wildlife exclusion fencing was closed (“One-way to free kangaroos” The News 31/1/22). The kangaroos are becoming increasingly stressed as they are prevented from returning to their natural habitat in Greens Bush and the pasture is unsuitable for their long-term health. Media coverage has highlighted their plight and more than 60 people have volunteered to assist with their release, all to no avail. Macropod specialists are behind the release methods. Research and evidence show that the kangaroos will leave the property if means of exit are provided, as per the Save the Mornington Peninsula Kangaroos plan. They should have been off the property months ago. It is long past the time that the land manager and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) did something. Save our beautiful kangaroos now. Jo Hansen, Rye

Australia ‘a mess’ With so many candidates presenting for the forthcoming federal election, and none seeming to address the very real problems facing Australians, it is hard to choose the least worst. In all the uncertainty one thing is certain: after the election some earth-shattering new policies will have to be introduced. To announce them prior would be political suicide. Australia is in a mess. Astronomical debt all round. There is no hope for the majority of young couples to buy a home. God help them when interest rates normalise. Real jobs, well paid, are not sufficient to buy a home. Thousands of jobs are not being created: if it is not 40 hours at the minimum wage, holiday pay, it is not a “job”. Pacific islanders are being imported as slave labour to pick farmer’s crops, on special visas with government connivance. The lucky ones get as much as $100 a week net, after “expenses”, for 60 hours. It’s been going on for years. Relying on tourism and the selling of cups of coffee as a pillar of the economy and to provide

“jobs” can be unfortunate. The policy of eternal economic growth through massive immigration, without industrialisation, has become a disaster; as has the Liberals’ laissez-faire economic management. We need to embrace China as a partner for our own development, benefit and trade, and stop insulting them. They are the new superpower around here. Australia won’t send diplomats to the Chinese Olympics in protest against alleged slave labour of the Uygher ethnic minority and the tennis player Peng Shuai being secreted away for things she said. Consider the most famous truth-teller Australian publisher, Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, abandoned to rot in a British jail, minor conviction expired. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

Not my Valentine I have read plenty of hoo-ha relating to “change the date” and I tend to agree. However, a far more pressing date change is needed: Valentine’s Day. How are we expected to shower our loved ones in affection when the Winter Olympics pours down the box and the footy pre-season is just around the corner? If [Mornington Peninsula Shire] councillors can form secretive pacts to change governance laws, surely the romantics in our official ranks can stand up and be counted. Andrew Johns, Arthurs Seat

Stop quarry EES The Ross Trust has stated it is no longer going ahead with a quarry proposal for the north face of Arthurs Seat. Why then hasn’t the Ross Trust withdrawn its application to the planning minister and stopped the environmental effects statement (EES) process? How can there be an EES running if the proposed quarry is not going ahead? Michelle de la Coeur, Red Hill

Inquiry needed I have challenged Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO John Baker and council officers to respond to complaints rather than ignore them (“Salary cap for CEO” Letters 8/2/22). The response to the CEO’s letter basically answers that question (“Inquiry needed into adoption of amended rules” Letters 8/2/22). It would be nice if he responded and addressed these concerns publicly. Could it be that people are tired of the bull and spin and would like some up front honesty? Some real transparent answers to questions and concerns? Transparency? Councillors can’t even question officers during a council meeting now, only behind closed doors. And guessing these are “in camera” so no one can discuss them afterwards. Democracy? The CEO controls the council [meeting] agenda. Council rules let councillors take a leave of absence for several months to run for public office, which means they are not representing their constituents. And that is only for the ones that take a leave, others can just “soldier on” while running. Why did they become councillors in the first place? Oh yeah, to get a leg up and network to run for bigger things. They should have to resign.

Does Mornington Peninsula Shire need a hard look at by the Local Government Inspectorate? Rhetorical question. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

All day? No way Just wanting to voice our disapproval and anger at receiving a $91 parking infringement notice from Mornington Peninsula Shire Council on Thursday 10 February. We purchased an all day parking ticket from the Sorrento ferry office to board the 10am ferry. Our ticket was displayed on our dashboard as required and we returned on the 2pm ferry to find a parking infringement notice attached to the windscreen next to our all day ticket. The infringement notice indicated the offence time was 12.34pm. Our ticket was purchased at 9.46am and we paid $10 for the day and we returned on the 2pm ferry. Work that out. Val and Tony Goodman, Rosebud

Economic controls I bought a packet of frozen spinach from a major supermarket. Having never seen the brand before, I read the information on the packet and found in very fine print at one end “Product of China”. Not only is it from a country with questionable hygienic agricultural practices, but we grow spinach and broccoli in abundance right here. Is it not time that we move away from China, pulling our economic strings, especially when we constantly read about our struggling farmers? Disgusted I threw the packet in the bin unopened. Austin Sadler, Mornington

Vegan climate solution Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, one of the natural wonders of the world, is dying. Mass bleaching events caused by the warming of the oceans have occurred regularly for the last five years. The World Heritage Council has given us until February (now) to show cause why the reef should not be listed as “in danger”. A few days before the deadline, the federal government decided to toss a billion dollars at it, most of which is targeted at improving water quality by remediating erosion and preventing harmful nutrient and pesticide run-off from farms. Cleaning the water helps but does not fix the key cause – global warming. The change in climate is closely linked with the issue of water quality improvement, and the common thread is the beef industry. The Wilderness Society has determined that beef production was linked to 94 per cent of all land clearing in the Great Barrier Reef from 2013-18. Trees, which suck up carbon dioxide and emit oxygen, are cut down to grow grass for cattle to eat, and those cattle breathe oxygen and emit carbon dioxide and vast amounts of methane, an even more potent greenhouse gas. Throwing money at the reef is useless without addressing the number one cause of the problem. The best way to maintain the Great Barrier Reef, human health and the environment, as well as saving thousands of animals from a miserable life and terrifying death, is to go vegan. If you care about the reef, give up the beef. It really is that simple. Mimi Bekhechi, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

YOUNG dancers from a non-profit Mornington Peninsula-based company have been entertaining audiences far and wide. Dancer choreographer Alexandra Dellaportas, who was 18 when she started Spark Productions seven years ago, is helping young people build on their passions for dance and the arts. The company, which has spent the past few weeks taking its latest production Snow and Rose around regional Victoria, is performing in Frankston on Thursday (17 February). Dellaportas said the show had been cancelled five times due to COVID and the company was excited to be able to perform it closer to home. “We took the show to Ballarat, and Shepparton last weekend, and now we are so happy to be able to bring it to Frankston Arts Centre,” she said. Snow and Rose is based on the fairytale Snow White and Rose Red that, through the lives of two sisters, explores familial relationships, coping with emotions and self-esteem issues. The company has had difficulty finding rehearsal spaces due to COVID and is appealing for donations to help keep its programs running. Individuals or companies that can help should contact admin@sparkyouthdance.com.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Alleged arson – Farm labourer charged Compiled by Cameron McCullough AT the Frankston Police Court on Monday last, before Messrs. C. V. G. Williams, C. W. Grant, W. Armstrong and Luxford, J’sP., a man named Arthur Nichols, aged about 30 years, was charged with unlawfully setting fire to a dwelling place on the 8th February. Senior Constable Bray conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Barnett appeared for the accused. The case, as outlined by the police, was that Nichols had been working for Mr. Mervyn Jackson, dairy farmer, Wells Road, Frankston. He was dismissed on 13th January. On the 27th January Nichols paid a visit to Jackson’s house, but soon left again. On the 8th February, at about 2am, Jackson was aroused from sleep by the cry of fire, and found that a hut in which two of his employees were sleeping was in flames. A sheaf of hay, newspaper and wood had been placed against the door of the hut and set alight. Another employee, who was sleeping in a separate shed, fortunately noticed the fire, and gave the alarm; otherwise the men inside the burning hut would probably have been roasted to death. One of the men escaped with a blanket wrapped around him. On the 8th February Nichols was seen at Frankston at 6am, and he left for Melbourne by the 9.29am train. George R. Childers said he was employed at Jackson’s dairy farm, and on the 7th inst slept in the chaff house. At 2am next morning he discovered a fire burning the door of the men’s hut, in which McLeash and Mahine were

sleeping. After arousing Jackson, he knocked on the door of the burning hut with the tailboard of a cart. Mahine and McLeash were inside the hut. There was straw burning in front of the door, with sticks and newspaper. The straw was jambed under the bottom of the door. Cross-examined: The haystack was some distance from the hut. He saw no straw lying about the yard before the fire. Witness had been in the men’s hut that night, and left about 9.30. There had been no drink about, and they had not been smoking. John Mahine deposed that on the night in question he had gone to bed at about ten o’clock. A little later he got up to yard up some cows which he saw through the door of the hut, which had not been closed, as the night was hot. He found that Mr. Jackson had just brought the cows home from Dandenong. At 11.30 he went to bed again, and at 2am was awakened by the cry of fire. He ran through the flames with a blanket over his head. Afterwards he saw burnt straw, sticks and paper in front of the door. Cross-examined: He had not been smoking that night. He went to bed by the light of the moon, and did not use matches. Childers had not been to the hut that night, but witness had visited Childers in his quarters, and gave him some matches, as he said he wanted to have a smoke. There was no straw lying about the

yard. George McLeish said he occupied the hut with the previous witness on the night of the 7th February. He thought the noise of the fire awoke him, and he pulled the door open, but closed it again, as the fire seemed to get worse. Then someone from outside opened the door, and witness assisted in putting the fire out. He saw straw, paper and sticks lying near the door, partly burnt, and he expressed the opinion that a deliberate attempt had been made to fire the hut. Cross-examined: He had been with Jackson for eleven weeks, and knew Nichols. He had no quarrel with Nichols. Mervyn Herbert Jackson said Nichols was always threatening to leave, and finally witness told him to go. There had been a disagreement over the food. Nichols visited witness’ place on 27th January, and asked for a drink of water. He said he had lost his bank book in Melbourne, and had returned to Frankston to see the bank manager. Witness gave corroborative evidence relating to the fire. Cross-examined: Nichols complained because his afternoon tea was taken to him in the cow yard. Mounted–Constable Mahoney, stationed at Frankston, said he visited Jackson’s farm on the 8th inst., and saw the men’s hut, the door of which was partly burnt. There were fragments of burnt straw, twigs and paper near the door. There was a haystack 50 yards from the hut.

A sheaf had been taken from the rear of the stack. Evidence as to the movements of accused that day was not admitted. Andrew Edwin Keeley, railway porter, said accused spoke to him at the Frankston railway station on the 27th January. He asked witness two or three times how the chap was getting on who took his place at Jackson’s. Frank Pickup said he was employed as driver at Mr. Oates’ dairy. On the morning of the 8th February he saw accused at about six o’clock outside Morgan’s, in Young Street, Frankston. Constable A. Smith, stationed at Russell Street, gave evidence as to the arrest of accused in Lonsdale Street on the 9th. inst. When informed as to the charge, he said he would not do a thing like that. He also made a statement which was committed to writing. He had a bank book, which showed that he had about £40 to his credit. Mr. Barnett submitted that there was no evidence to connect Nichols with the fire. The bench upheld this view, and accused was discharged. *** IN a bush fire at Langwarrin yesterday, Mr H. Gamble, of Frankston, it is stated, had about 100 tons of firewood destroyed. *** AT the Criminal Court on Wednesday, Robert Rivett, aged 19 years, of Baxter, was found guilty of having shot an invalid pensioner at Myrtleford at Xmas time, and was remanded for sentence.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

*** THE Pictures will be shown as usual tomorrow night, but not next Wednesday night. Hansen’s Pictures are showing to large audiences at the various Peninsula resorts. *** A PLEASING little function took place last night at the Mechanics’ Hall, when the committee of the Frankston Athletic Club assembled to make a presentation to Mrs H. McComb, who for many years past has assisted the club very materially by undertaking the catering arrangements in connection with the annual sports meeting on New Year’s Day. In presenting Mrs McComb with a silver rose bowl, suitably inscribed, Mr T. J. McMurtrie, the president of the club, made graceful reference to the work carried out by Mrs McComb whose gratuitous efforts had resulted in financial gain to the club. The gift, he explained, could not be regarded as a reward, but rather as a small token of the appreciation felt by the committee for the willing assistance always rendered by Mrs McComb. (applause) Cr G. A. May heartily endorsed the president’s remarks. The value of Mrs McComb’s work could not be over estimated, or amply rewarded. He believed Mrs McComb was one of those good souls who derived their pleasure in working for the good of others. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 17 February 1922

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Open Sesame! The Story of a Volley of Insults By Stuart McCullough WHAT a wasted opportunity. Out of nowhere, a slot magically opens up in a tennis grand slam and the organizers stupidly give it away to the most deserving person. Fools! This catastrophic lapse in judgment occurred at a time when the nation was thirsting for something special it could believe in. The organizers had a chance to do something memorable but squandered the opportunity in favour of some noname from nowhere that no-one can remember turning up at all. For shame! It could have been so different. All they had to do is take a moment to read the room and something truly splendid could have unfolded and transformed this summer into the greatest summer of all time, instead of the calamitous bin-fire of broken dreams that it was. In some countries, they’d see it for the gift that it was and would have turned it into a reality television show spread over thirty weeks on a streaming service. To ensure that it was as entertaining as possible, those vying to take the last spot in the draw would all be deeply unlikeable. The winner would get to play in the first round of a major tennis tournament. The loser would be relegated to the next series of Love Island. Despite our track record of producing reality television shows so outrageous that they leave the rest of the world gasping, slack-jawed in bewilderment, that’s not how the last player should have been chosen. Anyone can pump out a television show – we needed a process that would say something about who we are as a nation and as a people – even more than deporting someone famous does.

Mistake number one was replacing a tennis player with another tennis player. Boring! It’s such an incredibly predictable thing to do, particularly when

there’s a better and (I say) fairer way to go about it. You’ve got to give people what they want. And what the people really want is for someone dangerously

unqualified to step in. That’s why I believe the last spot in this year’s Australian Open should have been raffled off. Possibly with a meat tray. Imagine it, the entire country rushing out to buy raffle tickets. It’d be an absolute sensation. The nation would be glued to their screens as the winner was drawn from a really, really, really large hat. You’d be sitting at home on a Sunday evening when the phone would start to buzz, caller unknown. Instead of an awkward three-second delay followed by somebody asking you whether you’re interested in low-wattage light bulbs, it’d be a voice informing you that you’ve just been accepted into the men’s singles draw. There’s an element of surprise that you get from a raffle that simply can’t be replicated through a merit-based process. Personally, I’d like the winning raffle ticket to belong to my father. Granted, he’s over eighty, but he owns a collection of tracksuits that would surely put even a seeded player to shame. For those who think that being above eighty is too old to play tennis professionally, I’ll only say that it’s roughly two Roger Federers. Besides, how much do we expect from a last-minute replacement for the world’s number one player? Frankly, all he needs to do is show up, get his parking validated, stroll onto court and swing the racket. It’s not as though he could somehow fail to meet expectations. There simply aren’t any. The idea of someone getting an unexpected shot at glory is incredibly powerful. The entire ‘Rocky’ franchise is built around precisely that idea. It could

have worked wonderfully well. For one thing, no one would have been talking about Novak Djokovic if he’d been replaced by an octogenarian who’s likely to turn up to the stadium wearing gumboots. You may think I’m speaking rubbish. But that’s where you’re wrong. Having played tennis at the elite level myself, I feel I am completely in tune with the game and intuitively know what’s best for it. My extensive playing career – which consisted of eight training sessions at the Tyabb Tennis Club, whose courts were located so close to the Stony Point railway line that you had to buy a Zone Two ticket just to return a serve – gives me the mandate to spout any old rubbish when it comes to my third favourite sport. (Just behind darts and curling. Since you ask.) Sadly, I was forced to retire due to injury. Specifically, my feelings were hurt after I suffered a loss at the hands of my twelve year old cousin. She was really quite merciless. But despite having been out of the game for some time, I still take an interest. As does my father. The entire tournament had been done and dusted for a couple of weeks when I dropped in to see my father. He was there, in the living room; dressed in his best MC Hammer tracksuit, wearing gumboots and clutching a raffle ticket. I gently broke the news to him, saying that he’d missed his chance. He lashed out, saying it was all my fault that he missed his big chance, but he’s wrong. It’d be more accurate to describe it as my double fault. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Old Peninsula pull off thrilling win, Moorooduc and Pines draw, Dromana big winners over YCW By Brodie Cowburn

MPCA WOMENS

SPECTATORS were treated to two of the best individual performances of the MPCA Women’s season at Eric Bell Reserve last weekend. Pines and Rye did battle in a high scoring battle. Pines were sent in to bat first, and were formidable. Opener Tania Misa was incredible, scoring 103 not out. She hit nineteen boundaries, ten of them sixes. Samantha Ryan had another excellent game for Pines. She contributed 80 runs to the scoreboard. Pines scored a seemingly insurmountable total of 236 runs. Despite the big task ahead of them, Rye worked hard to stay in the contest. Selena Prescott was awesome for Rye. Her knock of 100 not out kept her side in contention, but it wasn’t quite enough. Rye ended their innings at 7/194. They gave it their best, but Pines still left with the win. In the other game of the round, Langwarrin defeated Tootagrook. Balnarring had a bye.

Job Well-er done HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou WITH just two horses currently racing, Balnarring-based trainer Cheryl Weller had the perfect day out at Colac on Friday, landing a winning double. After her well-bred five-year-old I Shot The Sheriff (Snitzel x Miss Power Bird) broke through for a determined maiden win in race two, Weller kept her cards close to her chest with her second galloper, Contalmaison, jumping as the race-favourite in the fifth event. “It’d be too good to be true,” Cheryl Weller said in a post-race interview following I Shot The Sheriff’s victory. Jockey Jarrod Fry, who had his first ride for Weller aboard I Shot The Sheriff, also partnered the stablemate in the fifth race. In similar fashion to I Shot The Sheriff, Contalmaison went forward and sat outside the leader before edging clear in the straight and fending off the challenge of the Andrew Noblettrained Rogue Star to win by a long neck. The narrow victory completed Weller’s first Australian double and brought up her eighth

victory since joining the Victorian training ranks in 2019. “I had some doubles back in England but it’s the first time that I’ve done it down here – it’s just fantastic,” she said. “I’ve got two horses that are actually racing so it’s what we dream of. “It’s the first time Jarrod Fry has ever ridden for me too and he’s had a double so it’s great for him as well.” Weller previously trained jumpers and rode in point-to-point races in England before moving to New Zealand where she gained further knowledge from master horseman Murray Baker. She prepared a small team and tasted some success in New Zealand before making the move across the ditch and taking up a role with Mornington-based trainer David Brideoake. Weller, now holding her own training license, utilises the Balnarring beach and keeps her horses happy with trail rides to get the best out of them. Her method of training is clearly working wonders with her small team that relish the different lifestyle.

Chelsea, Aspendale get through SOCCER

Serious sting: Domenic Paul (left) and Keiran Hughes were among Aspendale’s best in its 5-0 Australia Cup romp against Deakin University on Saturday. Pictures: John Punshon

By Craig MacKenzie THE first qualifying round of the 2022 Australia Cup was held last weekend and of the six local clubs in action just two survived this Victorian section of the national competition. The rebranded knockout tournament replaces the FFA Cup and last weekend’s opening involved local State 4 and State 5 clubs Baxter, Chelsea, Somerville Eagles, Rosebud, Aspendale Stingrays and Mount Martha. Seaford United was involved in the Cup draw but forfeited its away clash with Westside Strikers Caroline Springs FC. Peninsula Strikers, Skye United and Frankston Pines participate in the Cup next weekend but the draw had not been conducted as we went to press. Langwarrin and Mornington participate in later rounds. The only locals to survive the Cup opener were Chelsea and Aspendale Stingrays. Chelsea got the ball rolling with a 2-0 home win against St Kilda on Friday night thanks to super sub Vinnie Van Dyk. Early in the contest Chelsea striker Piers Brelsford was taken off with a suspected hamstring strain and on came Van Dyk who opened the scoring in the 23rd minute. Chelsea keeper Rhys Davies made three clutch saves and Van Dyk effectively put the visitors away in the 86th minute. Davies went long downfield and Mitch Hammond headed on before Van Dyk chipped St Kilda keeper Connor Henderson from outside the box. Aspendale trounced Deakin University 5-0 at Kingston Heath Soccer Complex on Saturday evening. Goals from Matt Bruce (2), James Macnab, Justin Lampert and Ben Garside ensured an easy passage into the next round for the side jointly coached by Gregor Macnab and Tony Guedes. Both coaches cited the appearance of 17-year-old Liam Norris and 18-year-old Felix Hampson as match highlights while Matt Leggett, Dominic Paul, Matt Bruce and Kieran Hughes were Aspendale’s best in a dominant display. A Nathan Yole goal in the 10th minute gave Baxter a 1-0 lead against Mount Waverley City at Baxter Park last weekend. The visitors hit back later in the

half with two goals in two minutes from Evan Devlin and eventually ran out 2-1 winners. A Bryce Ruthven penalty was the sole response from Somerville Eagles who went down 3-1 to FC Tullamarine at ABD Stadium in Broadmeadows on Saturday. Despite the loss the extensive squad makeover overseen by Somerville senior coach Lee Barber continues and last week he made another four signings. Midfielders Jack Carter, Almand (Chris) Thomas and Josh Simmons and striker Tom Simmons all made the move from North Seaford Reserve. Newcomers announced previously were goalkeeper Nick Bucello, leftwinger Adrian Pace and right winger Guil Ribeiro and it’s believed that the club is looking at bolstering its central defensive stocks. “‘All these signings are quality and bring their own skill set to the squad,” Barber said. “The four Seaford boys already know each other’s game and it’s been a seamless transition integrating them into the squad.”

and never had any options apart from Somerville … until Rosebud came back in,” was how Pagliarulo explained his u-turn. In friendly games NPL2 contender Langwarrin had a solid hit-out at Jack Edwards Reserve on Friday night against Oakleigh Cannons, one of the NPL’s premier clubs. Langy had a few senior players unavailable and went down 1-0, the winner coming from the penalty spot. Hours before the game Langwarrin announced the signing of star Green Gully midfielder Jay Davies, another coup in a busy off-season. Englishman Davies, 30, joined Gully in 2016 and lists Woking, St Neot’s Town and Bishop’s Storford among others on his football CV. The NPL transfer window closed last Thursday and although clubs can still sign players 23 years old and under it’s unlikely that the Lawton Park outfit will make any more major signings. Davies joins other newcomers in Kieran Dover (from Bentleigh Greens), Jacob Brito (Dandenong City), James Kelly (Essendon Royals), Ryan Pacz-

Mount Martha bowed out of the Cup with a 3-0 home loss to Glen Waverley who led 2-0 at the break with both goals coming from the spot. Despite a much improved secondhalf display by the home side a 73rd minute goal from Nick Higgins completed the scoreline. Chris Sanderson’s side will host FC Noble Hurricanes in a friendly this Saturday at Civic Reserve (reserves 2pm, seniors 4pm). Rosebud suffered a 7-1 thrashing at the hands of Surf Coast at Banyul Warri Reserve in Torquay last weekend. Despite being down 6-0 at halftime Rosebud battled away in the second half and Blake Hicks ended the barrage of goals when he scored in the 73rd minute. A surprising aspect of Rosebud’s matchday squad was the appearance of ageing striker Mark Pagliarulo and the versatile Cal Richardson. “Pags” quit as player-coach late last year and was understood to have left Rosebud while Richardson was believed to be heading to Frankston Pines. “I was looking for another club

kowski (Oakleigh Cannons), Mawien Nielo (Heidelberg United) and Lenny Gregory (Oakleigh Cannons). Langwarrin takes on Doveton at Lawton Park this Saturday with the under-21s at 1pm and the seniors at 3pm. Mornington drew 2-2 with NPL3 side Box Hill United at Dallas Brooks Park last weekend. Josh Hine scored both goals for the locals. Peninsula Strikers lost 2-0 to State 1 outfit South Springvale in a friendly at Centenary Park last Saturday. Kiwi striker Riley Anderton was back in action and played a full game. Strikers gaffer Donn Delaney was pleased with his side’s performance. “One disallowed goal for us and two cracking saves kept us from scoring but they also had two very marginal offside goals disallowed,” he said. “It was an open game where we tried to match them for as long as possible so we learned a lot as a squad.” Frankston Pines continued its offseason makeover with news that Liam Baxter has been signed from Kingston City. The former Inverness Caley striker arrived from Scotland in 2017 and has played for Goulburn Valley Suns, Langwarrin, Mornington, Casey Comets and Box Hill United. Pines went down 1-0 to Skye United at Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve last Thursday night. Marcus Anastasiou scored the decider after getting a flick-on from a Michael Bruzzese free kick.
