The cars that love Hastings PEDESTRIAN priority took a good humoured back seat on Good Friday as hundreds of cars took over Hastings.

Cruising for cruising’s sake, drivers and passengers went up and down High Street, making good use of roundabouts to make a clean U-turn.

The show was put on by Hastings Peninsula Cruisers for car lovers keen to see vehicles that fit the criteria for cruising: “chrome bumper, special interest, hot rods, customs, street machine, classic, vintage, original, up to pre 1980s”.

Fine weather brought an audience of all ages to watch as cars slowly made their way up and down in a show of pride and style.

The event raises money each year for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.

Peninsula’s popularity a blow to wildlife Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au AS people from Melbourne’s suburbs flock to the Mornington Peninsula, wildlife advocates say native animals are coming under increasing pressure from the urbanisation, tree clearing and domestic and feral predators.

Continued population growth in the region and the development of new homes and businesses is having an immediate impact on native animals, particularly tree-dwelling animals,

including birds, gliders, koalas and possums.

Rye wildlife carer Brenda Marmion said she is taking in more injured and displaced native animals every year, as constant vegetation removal makes way for new buildings.

Older trees, which usually contain hollows used by birds and small animals, are becoming rarer to find on the peninsula as householders more towards low maintenance gardens and smaller yards.

“I see the direct result of this loss

of habitat, and it’s devastating,” Ms Marmion said.

“Animals that used to rely on the trees suddenly find themselves with nowhere to go when that tree disappears, or they are forced to find accommodation wherever they can, and that often brings them into conflict with humans.

Ms Marmion said developers and residents were removing vegetation and trees at a massive rate.

While Mornington Peninsula Shire’s biodiversity conservation plan

recognises vegetation as the primary threat to biodiversity on the peninsula, wildlife carers agree that vegetation removal continues largely unchecked.

Jenny Bryant from the Tyabb Koala Hospital said tree loss was the most significant factor in wildlife displacement on the peninsula.

In most instances a planning permit is needed for the removal of vegetation or trees, but other than paying a fee and filling out a form, it is a fairly easy process.

In the three weeks from 21 March

to 12 April, there were 53 planning applications for the removal of vegetation across the peninsula, three relating to native vegetation and 12 for the removal of 47 trees.

“It’s ridiculous … I’ve been looking after wildlife on the peninsula for 40 years and I’ve been warning the shire about vegetation and tree removal the entire time, but nothing gets done,” Ms Bryant said. “They just put it down to progress, but it’s not progress of we are losing something so important.”

Councillors split over colleague’s course Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au CR KERRI McCafferty has been cleared by her Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor colleagues to undertake a $3900 councillor group coaching program.

The money is within her annual allowance, of which she has so far spent $1540, but required council approval as it was more than $2000.

Cr McCafferty, who was absent from the Tuesday 5 April public council meeting, has been cleared to do the course run by Ruth McGowan OAM. Ms McGowan, author of Get Elected (the Australian guide on how to campaign for political office) and Best Practice Guide for in Gender Equity in Local Government, for the Victorian Local Government, says her coaching can “assist local government leaders to thrive”.

Cr Sarah Race supported Cr McCafferty’s request to do the course “as we want to be the best that we can be”.

“Leadership skills, community skills, better manage time and communication, can only be a good thing,” Cr Race said.

“The politicisation and weaponising of our council professionally developing is shortsighted.

“Our community should be proud that we want to embark on continuous improvement, so we become better leaders and decision makers.

“One of our tasks as judicious stewards is to limit our blind spots for the unknown unknowns as much as possible, and we do this through professional development.”

Cr Debra Mar said she did not want to “deprive a councillor of furthering their education or to gain knowledge that would directly accommodate their role as a councillor” but “presumed” the $3900 course “does not offer an accredited certificate set by accredited industrial standards”.

“For a group coaching program probably offering a participation certification of sorts using ratepayers’ money I would have to question that … but I’m actually willing to listen to debates around the chamber before making a final decision,” Cr Mar said.

Cr David Gill said he would vote for Cr McCafferty being cleared to do the course as the money was set aside for councillors’ education.

“Whether this particular one meets all the requirements … is a fairly moot point,” he said.

“If you can find what you need from your training, I think that’s satisfactory and in the rules.

Cr Susan Bissinger: “This is clearly a councillor improvement role, it’s not anything else. It’s not billed as anything else. I think it’s a really good move and if Cr McCafferty feels it will benefit her, which I think it will, then it’s a great move for her to initiate this.”

The $3900 course cost was passed on the casting vote of the chair, the mayor Cr Anthony Marsh 5:4: For, Crs Race, Gill, Bissinger and Antonella Celi. Against: Crs Mar, Lisa Dixon, Steve Holland and Marsh.

Absent from the meeting were Crs McCafferty, Paul Mercurio and Despi O’Connor, who has taken leave to contest the seat of Flinders in the Saturday 21 May federal election.

Peninsula back in tune the classic way flute, Dominique Mirabella bassoon, Georgia White clarinet, and Cameron Williams French horn.

More than 60 members and guests attended the concert in St Marks Anglican Church, Balnarring, one of the best turnouts the society has had.

The program ranged from Rossini to Mozart and included modern works such as Fantasie for Clarinet Solo Jorg Widman (composed 1993).

The concert concluded with beautiful rendition of Martin-Joseph Mengal’s Quartet No. 2, a piece written by the Belgian composer in 1816.

THE Mornington Peninsula is again alive to the sound of music – classical music that is.

After a hiatus of two years, thanks to the pandemic, Somers Chamber Music Society was able to stage its first concert for 24 months on Sunday 10 April with a debut concert by a quartet of talented young musicians.

The Chamber of Secrets Wind Quartet comprising four former and/or current students of either Melbourne University or the Conservatorium of Music presented an eclectic program of wind music. Sunday’s concert was their first professional engagement.

Quartet steered by a fair wind HASTINGS author Frances Henke wrote a trilogy over six years from 2013, but when readers finished the third book they asked her: what happens next?

The prolific author, who has penned more than two dozen titles in a long career, also wanted to know, so she wrote another book.

The Coriolis Effect was published last month, and the trilogy became a quartet and Henke has ideas for a fifth. All four have been bought by the Victorian History Library, a nod to her meticulous historical research.

She calls it the Fair Wind series, named after the first novel, The Other Side of the Wind, which was set in and around Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula.

The series follows the lives of the Anderson family with newlyweds Edward and Catherine, both talented artists, arriving from England during Victoria’s 1850s gold rush. The second book has the Eureka Rebellion as its theme, and number three introduces the only child of the couple, a daughter, and the father’s years in the wilderness.

In the latest book, the girl is now an adult and has become one of Australia’s leading authors, albeit under a nom de plume. She embarks on a transformational sea voyage.

Henke wrote the book during the pandemic and under duress after two surgeries for a new hip.

She dubs it her second pandemic as she was diagnosed with polio as a girl, her family forced to quarantine in Gippsland. The lockdowns of 2020 and 2021 gave her the chance to research and write, with no visitors allowed, but after falling ill following the first surgery, she was concerned the book would never be finished, that she would forget everything. “Polios don’t wake up well from one anaesthetic let alone two,” she said.

Added pressure was being “haunted by

Future foreshore WORK is starting on the Hastings foreshore master plan and residents are invited to have their say on the area’s future.

Hastings’s foreshore is used daily by people exercising, fishing, playing and socialising. It is also home to occasional large scale events such as concerts and festivals.

The foreshore reserve stretches from the northern end of Fred Smith Reserve to the southern end of Hastings foreshore, and includes a playground, fitness stations and Western Port’s busiest boat ramp.

There are a few challenges the shire needs to deal with, including the Fred Smith Reserve being used as a tip in the 1970s and 1980s and the foreshore being a low lying coastal area with the potential to flood during storms and king tides.

Ideas can be made online at mornpen.vic.gov. au/hastingsforeshore until 23 May.

Art for op shop

Going fourth: Fran Henke in her studio and the cover of The Coriolis Effect. Picture: Supplied medical staff in PPE”, as had occurred during childhood.

Her short-term memory was affected but she just kept writing and illustrating the book - a skill honed after completing a visual arts diploma at age 65 at Chisholm Frankston, majoring in sculpture and printmaking. “Joy and new confidence returned,” she said.

And the title? It’s a reference to the book’s characters being buffeted by circumstances beyond their control. Because the Earth rotates on its axis, circulating air (including hurricanes/

cyclones) is deflected towards the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere. This is the Coriolis Effect.

The book will be launched at 2.30pm on Saturday 23 April at Western Port Craft Expo, Hastings Hub, 1973 Frankston–Flinders Road.

After the launch, Henke will lead a discussion on the craft of self-publishing.

• The Coriolis Effect, $25. Copies are available at Petersen’s Bookshop, Hastings, or through Flying Pony Press website.

THIS week’s inaugural Hastings Art Show will host a collection of paintings and photographs from local and Victorian artists.

More than 300 works have been submitted for both the physical and virtual shows, which will raise money for the Holy Trinity Church op shop in Hastings. The former op shop was destroyed when the old church burned down in 2017.

Church volunteer Sandra Gould said people could view the works at the gala opening night on Thursday 21 April, which will include refreshments and food, and there will be earlybird purchase opportunity.

Visitors can also watch artists in residence during the show.

All visitors are invited to place their vote for the people’s choice award, announced on Saturday 23 April and posted online.

The show will also run virtually, with even more artworks available for viewing and sale.

The online art show will be held over two days, 22 and 30 April at the Holy Trinity church, corner of King and Church Streets, Hastings.

Call for help to get kangaroos hopping Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au ANIMAL protection group Save the Kangaroos of the Mornington Peninsula wants community to help get a large mob of kangaroos off a Cape Schanck private property before they are killed.

The nine-month saga of the Cape Schanck kangaroos continues, with kangaroo numbers reportedly growing as they access the fenced, private property through several gaps recently made in the fence.

Around 500 kangaroos have made their home on the 176-hectare property, which abuts Greens Bush national park and is owned by Mornington Peninsula horse racing figure Jonathan Munz.

Groups frustrated with the lack of progress in the kangaroos’ release say it might be up to the community to step in to ensure the animals’ safety.

Spokesperson Mary waterman said communication between themselves and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning and property manager Kenneth Neff continued to “go around in circles”.

“Meanwhile, the kangaroos will leave but then return to be with the rest of their mob. We need one-way gates to keep them out and safe from being killed,” she said.

FRANKSTON HIGH SCHOO L 2023 ENROLMENT INFORMATION SESSIONS AND TOURS

“We will not rest until all the kangaroos are safely off this property.

“If DELWP and the [Mornington Peninsula Shire] council cannot protect our iconic kangaroos, we will, and we welcome members of our community to support us, to free our Australian wildlife and return them back into Greens Bush where they belong.”

Animals Australia said it would continue to monitor the situation and take “all necessary action” to ensure the kangaroos were humanely released.

Legal counsel for Animals Australia, Satha Hamade, said there was a “humane” solution for the trapped kangaroos, and that another kill permit, on top of the one once issued and then rescinded, was not the answer.

She said evidence had been provided to DELWP by Animals Australia regarding appropriate humane release methods, as provided by macropod experts and ecologist experts.

“Further, any claim by DELWP that the kangaroos pose an over-population or welfare risk in the region has been founded on extrapolated flawed data sets and a lack of credible evidence,” she said.

“Animals Australia has also provided DELWP with recent, extensive and sophisticated mob count data for the region which shows that the mob counts by DELWP are grossly

inflated”.

On 20 December 2021, Animals Australia commenced proceedings in the Supreme Court of Victoria against DELWP, seeking to quash the decision of DELWP to grant a permit for the culling of the Cape Schanck kangaroos.

Shortly before the court hearing DELWP decided to cancel the kill permit.

Ms Hamade said there was now “nothing” preventing the land manager Kenneth Neff from installing appropriate one-sided gates to allow the gradual humane release of the kangaroos to unfold.

However, Mr Neff told The News he was aware that DELWP was prepared to install the one-way gates, but he did not think they would work.

He said the best outcome would be to herd the animals out, but that he was not allowed to under DELWP’s anti-herding regulations.

“The best hope is that now that I have opened holes in the fences, there is a path out and a chance, that with a little help, the kangaroos will leave.”

Mr Neff estimated kangaroo numbers on the property had increased to about 600 since he opened up three exit points in the fences.

“I don’t want to shoot them, but there may be no other choice if they don’t leave,” he said.

ZOE McKENZIE IS WORKING FOR

The Peninsula is my home – a place I have lived and worked - in a small business I established six years ago.

I am deeply involved in our community - from water sports to spider crabs, small business to the scuba industry, I am heavily engaged in what makes the Mornington Peninsula unique and special.

As an avid scuba diver with my partner Rod, I know how globally significant our region is. That is why I am also committed to saving the Flinders Pier, the home of the weedy sea dragon, protecting our coasts and beaches, the Green Wedge, and Arthur’s Seat – for future generations.

Running my own small business in building trade and Australia’s exports, I know the unique challenges facing small and family enterprises which are the lifeblood

of our local economy. We need less tax, less red tape, and more ‘can do’ customer service for those trying to build opportunities for others.

I am already working with local businesses to ensure a thriving Peninsula economy.

Earlier in my career, I practised employment and equal opportunity law, worked in the vocational education sector, and served at the highest levels of government – I know how to get things done both locally and in Canberra.

I am proud to build on the work of Greg Hunt and will work to deliver results for the people of Flinders.

The seminar heard that while there were efforts to increase the habitat for koalas and to link larger forest remnants through establishing biolinks, more needed to be done to reduce habitat loss.

But even with steps to reduce habitat loss Ms Marmion, who runs Crystal Ocean Wildlife Shelter, said other threats still existed, such as the increase in dogs and cats and the resulting devastating impact on wildlife.

She said residents concerned about feral cats in Rye had trapped more than 15 over the past year, with none of them microchipped and all present-

ing with aggressive, feral behaviour.

“It’s tragic that these poor cats are the result of irresponsible owners or people who don’t desex their animals, and they are left to suffer in the wild while our precious native animals become their food source,” Ms Marmion said.

“If it’s not cats and cars, it’s loss of habitat because people want to cut down trees. It’s just heartbreaking for wildlife.”

Under shire’s 24-hour curfew, it is illegal to allow cats to roam during the day or night, and fines can be issued to offenders.

Ms Marmion said placing nesting boxes high in trees could go some way to making up for the loss of birds and marsupial habitat.

Nesting boxes can be bought through Wildlife Victoria, and several men’s sheds around the peninsula.

Environmentalist dies while diving MEMBERS of the Save Flinders Pier campaign are mourning the loss of one of the Mornington Peninsula’s most respected environmentalists, Trent Williams.

Williams’ death has dealt a blow to the Flinders community as it campaigns to save the town’s historic pier.

The Mornington-based educator and marine biologist died two weeks ago while scuba diving near Port Phillip Heads. Williams was one of the leaders of the Save Flinders Pier campaign, regularly organising volunteers to clean the Flinders beach, and leading groups of scuba divers to remove debris from the water and sea bed beneath the pier.

A keen underwater photographer, Williams photographed the Flinders pier structure as part of the group’s own independent condition report.

Chairperson for the Save Flinders Campaign, Charles Reis, said the group was still dealing with the loss of a good friend.

“Trent was there at our first public meeting in May last year and immediately signed on to do whatever he could to save the pier and protect the marine habitat,” he said.

“He was a highly regarded scuba diver and advocate for protecting our marine environment.

“He brought energy, experience, knowledge and wisdom to our campaign, and we could never have achieved what we did without him.

Hi vis moment: FLINDERS MP Greg Hunt and the state Ports and Freight Minister Melissa Horne with BlueScope Steel CEO Mark Vassella to cut the ribbon to open the company’s new customer service centre. Picture: Supplied

MPs roll up for steelworks opening TRENT Williams was a respected environmentalist in the Flinders community and a supporter of the Save Flinders Pier campaign.

“All of us who volunteered alongside Trent learnt so much from him; and his legacy is that we now better understand the importance and urgency of protecting the ecology of our oceans and its precious sea life.”

Williams had a long association with the Sea Shepherd organisation, leading its marine debris team of volunteers focussed on keeping the peninsula’s bays and waterways clear of litter.

He is survived by his parents Rod and Nola, and three children Ella, Ethan and Keely.

BLUEScope Steel says opening a new customer service centre at its Western Port works, Hastings confirms its commitment to local employment and local manufacturing.

Managing director and CEO Mark Vassella said the $34 million centre - with capacity to process more than 100,000 tons a year - consolidated BlueScope’s Victorian steel processing capabilities on one site, “using the latest technology and with a clear focus on our customers, safety and the welfare of our people”.

The centre’s opening comes during the steelworks’ 50th year of operation at Western Port.

Invited by the company to the opening ceremony were Flinders MP and Health and Aged Care Minister Greg Hunt and the state’s Ports and Freight Minister Melissa Horne.

“The customer service centre IT infrastructure includes an automated slitting head build robot which is the first of its kind in Australia,” Mr Vassella said.

“The robot automatically constructs a slitting cutting head to individual customer requirements without manual intervention from operators or other tradespeople, thus removing the risk of error, greatly speeding up the process of building a new head and enabling a more efficient operation to better serve customers. It also helps keep BlueScope people safe at work by eliminating manual handling and other safety risks.

“The opening of the customer service centre is another investment by BlueScope in enhancing Australia’s sovereign manufacturing capability. Recent and current global

events have amply demonstrated the importance of local manufacturing for essential products, such as the steel that supplies Australia’s building and construction, infrastructure and manufacturing sectors.”

Mr Vassella said the centre had about 30 employees, most of them from the peninsula.

The centre is in an extended existing building and takes steel coils and processes them - for example by slitting and recoiling - to meet the demands of a range of domestic customers.

About 200,000 tons of steel products a year on average, or around 20 per cent of the Western Port works’ production, is exported, with more than 66 per cent going to North America.

In 2022, the Western Port Works is celebrating 50 years of operation.

As the highest performing secondary school on the Mornington Peninsula, Dromana College will continue to work tirelessly to develop and consolidate the many exemplary educational programs on offer.

With outstanding facilities, a committed professional staff and a caring school community, students are challenged to explore their interests and talents to achieve their personal best.

Paths opened for wine industry jobs STUDENTS are being encouraged to consider following a career path into the Mornington Peninsula’s $200 million a year wine industry.

The industry group Mornington Peninsula Wine is working with members of a learning and employment network on “active vocational pathways” for students from the region’s 29 schools to work in the peninsula’s wine industry.

Partnering with the Frankston and peninsula local learning and employment network (FMPLLEN), schools and students can take Vocational Education and Training Certificate (VET) courses in horticulture, viticulture or winemaking.

The courses include “hands-on” experience with peninsula wineries and vineyards and are aligned with changes being made to the state’s senior secondary certificate.

“A growing demand for agricultural graduates, restrictions on travel and access to skilled visa holders since the start of the pandemic, ongoing economic uncertainty, and a four per cent unemployment rate, has placed an intense strain on the wine industry’s labour market, as it has on many other agricultural industries,” Mornington Peninsula Wine CEO Olivia Barrie said.

She said the wine sector nationally directly and indirectly employed nearly 164,000 people “yet relies heavily on seasonal workers, including skilled international contractors to support the annual wine grape harvest and ongoing production needs”.

Barrie said Mornington Peninsula Wine’s effort to increase the intake of students to the industry included an awareness campaign for schools and career counsellors.

“The sector is experiencing labour and skills

shortages, which is keenly felt across viticulture and vineyard management and more widely across winery, business and logistics also.

Industry engagement and structured workplace learning manager at FMPLLEN, Angela Byatt, said the program aimed to connect schools and students with industry.

Launched in March, two vocational placements have already been made and several work experience students have participated in the grape harvest at various wineries in recent weeks.

For details call FMPLLEN on 8679 3422.

Noise pollution problem WITH more people working from home, Environment Protection Authority Victoria recorded a doubling of reports about noise pollution in the 2020-2021.

Noise report data collected between July 2021 and January 2022 showed the trend was continuing, with around 3500 noise pollution reports received at EPA’s contact centre in that time.

EPA CEO Lee Miezis said the most common types of noise complaints were about residential and industrial noise.

In 2018, one in four complaints about noise made to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council related to so-called “party houses”, but COVID has curbed that behaviour over the 2020-2021 period.

At the time, the shire’s environment protection manager John Rankine said party noise was a difficult issue to deal with as it was occurring at different times and days.

The Peninsula Trail – An Australian Centenary Project of the Mornington Peninsula Rotary Clubs THE eight Clubs on the Mornington Peninsula are championing an Australian Rotary Centenary Project which will serve their communities for the next 100 years, or even more.

The project is the Peninsula Trail, a network of around 100km of walking and cycling trails connecting the communities and tourist destinations of the Mornington Peninsula. Around half the intended network is already in place so it’s really about completing the missing links.

The project, being led by the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, has been identified as a key strategic investment to boost the local economy and COVID 19 recovery. Since Rotary got involved nearly three years ago, Council has committed $10 million to the four priority missing links, which are estimated to cost $30 million. The State and Federal Governments have announced $3 million and $4 million respectively, for the Somerville to Baxter missing link.

Completion of the now fully-funded Somerville to Baxter section of 4.6km will mean users can walk or cycle safely, offroad from Melbourne to Balnarring via Somerville, Hastings, Bittern and Somers. Construction should start early next year, and community engagement is now happening.

That means the next priority section is Moorooduc to Mornington, and the Southern Peninsula, including Anthony’s Nose at McCrae, followed by the Hinterland and Central Peninsula.

In many locations it will provide a safe off-road option for kids to walk or ride to school, the shop, sport or friends’ homes. It will provide a fabulous, free, family recreation option. It will help people using mobility aids and scooters to get around.

There are nearly 4000 signatures on a petition to complete the Moorooduc to Mornington priority.

Each club of course wanted their own immediate and local project as their “initial” Centenary Project. These are all now in process with traditional Rotary installations of benches and picnic tables

and revegetation. Further plans include BBQs, water stations, shelters, and bike stands.

But there is also a bigger long term vision.

Completion of the missing link from Moorooduc to Mornington, which will connect to the existing Harrap Creek Trail into the Briars and Mt.Martha , will help the clubs create a green recreational link from Baxter to the Briars, and the beaches at both Mornington and Mt.Martha. It will enhance the attraction of the existing Heritage steam train and Mt.Eliza Regional Park.

Mt.Martha Rotary Club is leading the way having successfully obtained Federal Funding of $9000 towards its rest stop, near the entrance to the Briars from Craigie Road. It also conducted a raffle to raise funds which helped raise awareness in the community.

Mt.Eliza Rotary club has kicked off a project to plant indigenous species near Moorooduc Station and engaged students from Peninsula Grammar in the planting.

The current Assistant District Governor, Peter Rawlings has continued to lead the eight clubs, enthusiastically. “The result is that Rotary will get recognition of its role in helping make this major project happen, well beyond what any individual club can achieve. It’s about positioning Rotary as not just people of action, but people of influence that can facilitate major projects that the community appreciate” said Peter.

During the three years that clubs have been working on the project the International Rotary Themes have been around, connecting, serving and creating opportunities. In the coming year the Rotary International theme is centred on Imagining. Surely no project could be a better fit will all of these than the Peninsula Trail.

Driver ‘falls’ from car, fails test A 60-year-old Mornington man was allegedly so affected by alcohol he almost fell from the car when stopped by police near Main Street, Mornington, shortly after 10.20pm on Saturday 16 April,.

Police said the man’s breath alcohol concentration was .255, more than five times the legal limit.

The man will have to pay more than $1000 to get his vehicle(right) back and face the Magistrate’s Court at a later date.

Dromana drinking HIGHWAY Patrol officers caught a drink driver four times over the limit at a random breath testing site in Dromana on Easter Saturday 16 April.

A Honda CRV with two adults and two children inside was seen pulling over just before a roadside testing site on the Nepean Highway, around 5.30pm.

Police allege the female passenger swapped seats with the male driver and then drove toward the testing site.

A preliminary breath test was conducted on the original driver, who returned a positive reading. He was taken to a nearby police station, where he returned an evidentiary breath test of 0.205.

The 39-year-old Thomastown man had his licence suspended immediately and his vehicle will be impounded.

The impound was part of the state-wide Operation Compass during the high-risk Easter holiday.

Police targeted impaired driving, speed, distraction, and fatigue in high-risk areas throughout metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.

The playful banter between host Hamish Blake, judge Ryan “Brickman” McNaught and the contestants is as colourful as the LEGO creations themselves. Viewers love the family-friendly nature of this LEGObuilding competition, but producers have upped the ante for this fourth season by sending the competitors outside the studio.

Thankfully, LEGO is waterproof and (almost) indestructible. Tonight, it’s what’s inside that counts as the teams, including best friends Gene and Nick, face an intricate cut-away challenge. As inspiration, Brickman reveals his ship – cut in half to reveal its insides on one side – which took 200 hours and 35,000 bricks to create. It’s certainly not child’s play.

There’s a curious phenomenon that takes place when a comedic actor portrays a dark, serious role. In this harrowing true-crime drama, Stephen Merchant (Extras) plays serial killer Stephen Port, dubbed “the Grindr killer”, who murdered four young gay men in London between June 2014 and September 2015. In tonight’s second part, the families of his first two victims fight for justice against a series of Metropolitan police failings, even as a third body is found in the same location.

This WWI epic is an acute exercise in tension, reinforced by the ingenuity of its real-time premise. The plot revolves around two British soldiers, Will (George MacKay, above) and Tom (Dean-Charles Chapman), who are assigned the critical task of delivering a life-saving message to another unit which is preparing to launch a potentially disastrous assault on enemy positions. Supported by the work of legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins, director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Skyfall) engineers a raw, heart-stopping film that earned both critical and commercial success, including 10 Oscar nominations.

‘Irresponsible’ budget to get government back This was an election [federal] budget and the cash handouts are fiscal irresponsibility at its worst and are given out for the sole purpose of getting the government back into power (“Budget benefits” Letters 13/4/22).

The cost of these cash payouts to six million welfare recipients will be $1.5 billion. Let’s face it, the handouts probably won’t make much difference to their lives.

Wouldn’t it be better to use that kind of money to provide a better dental program for low income people?

The cost of cutting fuel taxes for six months will be a staggering $3 billion, all borrowed.

Petrol accounts for about four per cent of most household budgets. Think what we could do with that money towards flood mitigation.

The Treasurer [Josh Frydenberg] revealed that there would be a deficit of $78 billion; money that we, as a nation, have to borrow.

None of this will slow inflation - the big issue is that interest rates are certain to rise. With the average mortgage now a breathtaking $600,000, a rate rise of just one per cent would add $6000 a year, or $115 a week, to the average family’s mortgage repayments.

Budget moves to assist first homeowners will only drive up house prices by increasing the [number of] potential purchasers. To allow couples to borrow on just a five per cent deposit, with no mortgage insurance is bad enough, but to allow a single person to borrow with just a two per cent deposit is ludicrous.

Sounds a lot like how the GFC started in the US. I think the biggest risk to the budget and the economy in future is the actual budget, the huge debt and the irresponsible management of taxpayers’ money by [Prime Minister] Scott Morrison and the Liberal Party.

Karen Gelley, Rye

‘Truth’ in advertising With the election campaign upon us we will no doubt be subjected to countless (largely exaggerated and/or untrue) election advertisements. Last week’s edition of The News is a good example.

The first double page spread by Clive Palmer’s party contained an accurate graph showing the rise of Australia’s debt, it has nearly quadrupled in the past decade. However, to have Craig Kelly complaining about it on the second page of the spread is a bit rich. He was a member of the Liberal government for most of the last decade when the vast majority of the debt increase occurred.

Dr Ross Hudson, Mount Martha

Misleading figures A recent edition of The News included a doublepage advertisement for the Liberal Party featuring a table comparing lump sums spent in 2013

by Labor to those spent in 2022. The inference was that the Morrison government has been better than Labor.

This is preposterous. The point of comparison is meaningless and misleading.

Of course the dollars spent today will be more than those required nine years ago. The colour spread was an insult to the intelligence of the voters of Flinders.

The crucial message from the advertisement is that the Liberal priority will always be money.

Consider the Morrison government’s performance on climate change, aged care, health care, women, people with disabilities and integrity in leadership. One could only conclude these are not Liberal priorities. The Morrison government could not care less.

For a party so preoccupied with money, it is ironic that they are such poor economic managers. Thanks to their incompetence and mismanagement, Australia has a forecast budget deficit for 2022-23 of $98.9 billion, the highest in the history of our Federation.

JobKeeper enriched some of the wealthiest Australians. After years of wage stagnation, the budget forecast wages growth of 2.75 per cent this year, trailing inflation at 4.25 per cent. This means continued cost of living pressure under a Morrison government for Australian households.

Meanwhile, the sports rorts, robo debt and car

park scandals have raised questions of economic competence as well as fundamental ones of integrity. The Morrison government serves its own interests rather than the needs of all Australians.

When election day comes, I hope the choice is indeed clear.

Vote for [Labor candidate] Surbhi Snowball and an Albanese Labor government.

Ian Coffey, Red Hill South

Meet the candidates The News is certainly a bulkier offering these days, being embellished with massive advertisements extolling Liberal Party candidate and The United Australia Party (but not a syllable about its candidate).

Rather than have these parties talking past each other via your newspaper, wouldn’t it be reasonable to expect them to appear before us, the voters, at a town hall meeting where they can engage in a face-to-face contest of ideas and answer questions from the audience so that we can make an informed decision about whom to vote for?

I don’t want leaflets, letters, giant photos and advertisements. I want to see and hear the candidates in a forum. Is that too much to ask? Am I being unreasonable? Gregory Johnston, Fingal

Issues missed Having received a [Liberal candidate for Flinders] Zoe McKenzie flyer in my letterbox, I believe she is totally out of touch with Mornington Peninsula issues.

While a picture of her diving in extremely expensive scuba gear looks good, I don’t believe this will resonate with much of the population.

The peninsula has one of the highest rates of socio-economic disadvantage in the state and while Zoe speaks of being raised by a single mother, I don’t believe her experiences compare to so many people in this area. Being the daughter of a cardio-thoracic surgeon and attending an exclusive girls’ school, does not compare with being raised by a single parent in an underpaid, casualised, underemployed or unemployed situation (true figures hidden by [Treasurer Josh] Frydenburg).

Survival does not mean paying high school fees but keeping a roof over your and your children’s heads and food on the table.

So, while Zoe’s flyers and many, many colourful billboards may look good, they are all fluff and don’t talk to us about the real issues on the peninsula.

Marilyn Merrifield, Rye

Confident councillor I was disturbed to read about Cr Despi O’Connor taking extended leave from her job on the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council (“Integrity questioned” Letters 9/4/22).

I was also deeply disturbed when I heard Cr O’Connor say she is not going to do any preference deals with any other candidate or political party. She naively claims she doesn’t have to preference anyone because she is going to win the election on her own.

Australian Electoral Commission figures show that more than two-thirds of federal electorates, even safe seats, still come down to preferences.

When Cr O’Connor decided to stand after failing to be endorsed by Voices of Mornington Peninsula, she split the vote. If she does not preference the Voices Independent, Dr Sarah Russell, she is giving a gift to the Liberals.

Many of us who care about climate action know we need to vote the Liberals out. To do this, the two independents must do a preference deal.

However, if Cr O’Connor is so convinced she has the seat of Flinders sewn up, why doesn’t she do the honourable thing and resign from the council so that those of us who live in the Briars Ward can be fully represented?

It sounds like she is having a bet each way again.

Denise Hassett, Mount Martha

‘Hope’ restored It was so encouraging to see that the independent candidate for Flinders, Dr Sarah Russell, is putting “hope” at the centre of her campaign to

win [the federal seat of Flinders] (“Running on ‘hope’ for Flinders” The News 12/4/22).

Many of us on the Mornington Peninsula have lost hope in democracy. We feel our vote has been ineffective, but we believe that with Dr Russell our voices will be heard.

At the [Saturday 21 May] election, we will be choosing hope – hope for a better country for our children and our grandchildren. We want our government to show kindness and compassion to all who live in this great country.

All parliamentarians must remember that they work for their electorates, not their parties.

John and Cathy Stamp, Rosebud

GDP not the answer Why not ask the prime minister and Opposition leader about GPI, instead of only about GDP, which includes no real measures of our social wellbeing or makes no deductions for externalities and environmental costs?

Isn’t it possible for a country to have high GDP and low unemployment rates and still be unhealthy?

The first week of the federal election has actually revealed where our deficit lies: in the inability of the dominant media platforms to ask relevant economic questions.

How can GDP, on its own, stand as an important measure of our wellbeing when it only measures production and consumption and makes absolutely no allowance for health problems and environmental damage?

GPI is really the overall better guide to Australia’s economic and social health. After deductions are made for externalities and public health system failures, Australia’s Genuine Progress Indicator ( GDI) shows Australia is travelling very close to a GPI recession due to the impact of climate change and the corresponding impact of the coronavirus epidemic on Medicare and our public health systems.

The real value of the RBA’s low interest rate policy is not such that it’s only at a record low level, it also shows the underlying problem in the Australian economy .

We live in an economy built on quick sand, in which production and consumption have to be intermittently artificially stimulated by fiscal and monetary policy.

Such a society is really founded on self-interest, greed, excess production, overconsumption and social inequality.

John Glazebrook, Rye

Friday day of respite We thank God for Good Friday and respite from the constant telephone calls offering free lighting, not to mention the nightly news and alternative offerings from politicians.

The unemployment figure is of course a nonsense in a world of sackings and outsourcing, resulting in more pennies from heaven, and as close to reality as winning Powerball.

For the record, it doesn’t finish there, the Seinfeld show about nothing shall continue with Scotty buying votes (primarily mirages - the Kooyong car parks?) and questioning Albo’s competence, bless him, followed up by scrapping his corruption watchdog promise (against politicians and public servants) given before the last election.

Whoever wins, it’s looking like the $16 billion stage three tax cuts (benefiting the higherincome rich) will stay. Surely a wasted tragedy?

So much for the disadvantaged job seeker.

We live in hope for the real policies of childcare, energy, aged care, jobs, education, health care and an anti-corruption commission. Or a Collingwood victory, or two.

On a personal note, I’m wondering who will change my smoke alarm come June and the loss of our council handymen/women? Deep breathing from the diaphragm, one day at a time.

Cliff Ellen, Rye

Impact of hydrogen It’s good to see somebody else is aware of the threat being imposed on Western Port (“Hydrogen highway” Letters 12/4/22).

I have alerted readers previously that this “trial” hydrogen exercise is just the thin edge of a wedge being developed by [Victorian Premier] Daniel Andrews to turn the Mornington Peninsula into a safe Labor seat.

The “trial” will become a permanent reality in the plan to create the Hastings area into a major industrial hub and to hell with the environmental impacts.

The expansion of the industrial area will come with the development of this hydrogen industry

by attracting a collection of satellite industries to follow in its wake. With it will come an influx of workers to be employed by these new industries.

They will be mainly unionists and traditional Labour supporters. They will need housing and where else can this be provided other than the consumption of more farmland.

There is no logical reason this port facility has to be located in Western Port. The support for the production of hydrogen is created by the destruction of the brown coal generating industry and fits neatly into the broader scheme to permanently Laborise the federal seat of Flinders.

Hydrogen is being touted as an environmental plus but conveniently ignores the environmental impact on Western Port generally.

Given the history of hydrogen as a dangerous substance, what is wrong with establishing an offshore loading facility in Bass Strait via the gas terminals at Sale and piping the hydrogen to ships moored offshore where they are isolated in the event of a Hindenburg type disaster?

James Rumpf, McCrae Editor: The $500 million brown-coal-tohydrogen trial being run by a consortium led by Kawasaki Heavy Industries is being backed with $50 million each from the Victorian labor and Liberal National party federal governments.

Old oak axed I was dismayed to see that the massive oak tree on the land earmarked for an aged care centre in Baxter-Tooradin Road has been demolished.

The tree was beautiful and situated on land behind the service station (on Frankston-Flinders and Baxter-Tooradin roads).

Why has this been allowed to happen? Do the developers (the Village Glen group) not realise the significance of such old trees?

Why did the planners at Mornington Peninsula Shire Council not make them develop around this tree?

It was on the edge of the land and I’m sure some forward thinking innovative planning could have made this tree a feature in their garden.

It would seem the almighty developer dollar over aesthetics wins each time.

Jillian Chapman, Baxter

Wonga misplaced I would like to correct the record about the Aboriginal name for Arthur’s Seat. It was not named Wonga, nor was the Aboriginal leader Simon Wonga born there or named after it.

Georgiana McCrae, a settler on the Mornington Peninsula in the 1840s, recorded the name of Arthurs Seat as Wango, which is pronounced “wahng-oh”. It sounds similar to wonga, which is pronounced “wong-uh”.

Wango is obviously a Boonwurrung word, but I am unaware of its meaning and, despite several inquiries with Victorian Aboriginal Centre for Languages, I have received no response.

Confusion over the Aboriginal name for Arthurs Seat name seems to have come about when in 1878, the secretary of the Aborigines Protection Board, Robert Brough Smyth, erroneously claimed that the Aboriginal leader Simon Wonga had been born there and was named after it.

However, Wonga himself stated in 1861, that he was born at Woori Yallock in the Upper Yarra. This is an alpine rain forest area and the habitat of the native wonga pigeon, after which wonga was named. The peninsula is not a habitat area of the wonga pigeon, and I am not aware that wonga is even a Boonwurrung word. Again, no response to this question has been forthcoming from the VACL Apart from these facts, it makes no sense from an Aboriginal cultural perspective, for Arthurs Seat to have been Wonga’s birthplace.

At the time of Wonga’s birth in 1821, his father, Billibelleri, was a senior Woiwurrung man and was destined for tribal leadership.\ In tribal times Aboriginal people firmly believed that your spirit belongs to the land on which you are born. So why would Billibelleri and his wife even think of leaving their Woiwurrung home country for their son to be born on and forever belong to Boonwurrung country?

Jim Poulter, Templestowe Editor: Jim Poulter has authored a book, Simon Wonga - His Life Journey, and in 2014 successfully nominated Wonga for the Victorian Aboriginal Honour Roll.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Call to remember ANZAC Day’s importance Compiled by Cameron McCullough ALL over the civilised world certain “days” are being observed as either national or world-wide occasions.

The best known are such religious festivals as Christmas and Easter, observed by all Christian peoples.

As religion is of prime importance in the life of man, so it is fitting that his most important holidays (or holy days) should commemorate portions of the life of Christ.

Man’s first duty is to God, next he owes obedience to his nation, and it is to keep this in view that certain “national holidays” are kept.

Thus we have Empire Day and King’s Birthday as representing our allegiance to our great British Empire.

Later than this idea is the growing thought of our own Australian nationality.

A.N.A. Day stands for the political beginning of our Australia; yet the eyes of the world seldom ever glanced at our corner of the map when great questions were being discussed.

Today we stand in a prouder position. We have now our delegates sitting at all the important world conferences, as at Washington and Genoa.

Our voice is hearkened to with the respect of all nations.

What has caused this growth of our national pride and position? Why is it that, we, in common with other sister dominions, have been accorded a voice in the directing of the policies of the whole world and the British Empire in particular?

Without the slightest hesitation, we say it is because of the proud and honorable way in which our soldiers

left their homes to go across the world and fight the common foe; to their unexampled exploits, both on the cliffs of Gallipoli and in the trenches of Flanders; to the gallant sisters, who were close behind, healing the wounds of the fallen; and to the fine spirit of independence, originality and resource shown by so many of our men, some of whom, like the late Sir Ross Smith, have continued, after the armistice, to make the name of Australia famous.

In all their deeds of gallantry and daring, some have fallen by the way, some sacrifice of precious life has been paid, and it were unworthy of a young nation to claim credit for the deeds of its heroes without honoring those who paid the great price.

It is to commemorate all this that we celebrate, and will continue to celebrate, Anzac Day, a day chosen as the first and perhaps the most spectacular of the great exploits of our soldiers in the war – a simple little story of the scaling of those cliffs, and one which our children must be taught to love with the combined love of a whole nation, and to remember as an example of the high sense of duty held by their fathers.

Let us not forget Anzac Day. *** MR W. J. Oates, of the Frankston Dairy, has been appointed sole district agent for the Lady Talbot Milk Institute, which specialises in special nursery milk. *** MR Carl Dyring, while motor cycling on his way to spend Easter at Frankston, was struck by a car, and received severe bruises, concussion and

a broken rib, necessitating removal to Sister Creswick’s hospital. *** A FIRE last Sunday wrought great destruction at the Government pine plantation, Frankston.

The damage is estimated at thousands of pounds. *** WE are pleased to learn that Mrs James, wife of Mr M. A. James, of Frankston, who has been seriously ill, is now progressing favorably. *** MRS Coxall, who has been in critical condition, suffering from heart trouble, is still an inmate of Sister Creswick’s private hospital. *** MR George Keast and Mr Chas Copsey, of Somerville, have gone on a holiday trip to Sydney. *** A COLLISION between a motor cycle, with side car attached, and a motor car on the Point Nepean Road, near Frankston, on Sunday night, resulted in slight injuries to two men on the cycle, and more severe injury to a young lady in the car.

The rider of the motor cycle, Alexander Wilson, of Murrumbeena, received a cut on the head, and John Weston, of Oakleigh, who was riding on a seat behind him, had a hand fractured.

Miss Rose Jones, of Clifton Hill, one of the occupants of the motor car, received a serious fracture of the jaw by being struck with a broken hood stay.

All three patients were admitted to Sister Creswisk’s Private Hospital for

treatment.

*** Shire Council meeting AT previous meetings, the advisability of removing the barb wire fence from the Soldiers’ Avenue in Melbourne Road had been discussed, and a motion moved by Cr. Wells had been actually passed to have it abolished on the score that it was a source of danger.

Cr. Oates, who strenuously opposed the proposal, was supported by the president of the local branch of the Returned Soldiers’ Association, and he succeeded, at the last meeting, in having the motion for the removal of the fence knocked out.

Cr. Wells was still of opinion that the wire was a danger, and he considered that if the returned soldiers wanted to retain it, they should accept responsibility, for any accidents that might occur.

Cr. Oates replied that the Council was prepared to accept its own responsibilities.

Cr. Jones, supported by Cr. Alden gained his point in securing four seats for Hastings Park.

The secretary (Mr. John E. Jones) had a sample seat on view in the Council chamber, and the Hastings representatives liked it so well that they refused to be satisfied until an order was put through for a “couple of pairs of seats as per sample.”

It appears that some years ago Hastings had some new seats made and paid for by public subscriptions.

The councillors of that time, for some reason not stated, sold them to the Frankston Riding, and they were

GALLERY TALK We recently launched our Autumn exhibitions, including Collection+, bringing together the work of Melbourne based artist Louise Rippert with New Zealand contemporary artist Steve Carr.

transferred to the Frankston Park.

Cr. Alden first ventilated the matter two or three months ago, and after persistent effort, it has been decided to provide Hastings with new seats.

Cr. Oates said that now it had been decided to extend the Frankston electric lighting system to Seaford, it might be advisable to include Somerville and Hastings.

Cr. McLean supported the idea, and President Longmuir undertook to test the feeling of the ratepayers interested and to report at next meeting.

Cr. Wells expressed himself as being far from satisfied with the reports received as to the working of the Moorooduc quarry, and he moved that a special meeting of the Council be held on the 21st inst., at two o’clock, to investigate affairs.

This was seconded by Cr. McLean, and carried.

At the instance of Cr. Latham, the Council has resolved to take prompt action to compel landowners to eradicate noxious weeds – particularly stinkwort.

The secretary said he had sent final notices to several owners, but without effect.

Cr. Gray considered that an independent inspector should be appointed.

It was too much to expect the Shire secretary to attend to the matter and make the personal inspections necessary.

It is probable that the question will be brought on for discussion at the next Municipal Conference. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 21 April 1922

Red Hill and Dromana draw, Bulls get on the board MPNFL

By Brodie Cowburn

DIVISION ONE

NOTHING could separate Red Hill and Dromana at the end of their Good Friday match last weekend.

Red Hill Recreation Reserve hosted the two sides.

Both sides found it difficult to hit the scoreboard all day. The game went right down to the wire, and when the final siren sounded they were all square.

The game finished as a draw - 7.7 (49) to 7.7 (49).

Billy Guerts was Dromana’s best. He kicked four of their seven goals for the day.

Harry Sullivan kicked two for Red Hill.

Bonbeach and Edithvale-Aspendale also faced each other on Good Friday. Bonbeach emerged victorious after a hard-fought battle.

Bonbeach had some trouble with their goal kicking accuracy, but still managed to get the win. They triumphed 10.11 (71) to 14.22 Pines needled: The Stonecats had a 51 point win over the Pythons. Picture: Craig Barrett

(106).

Joseph Fisscher and Jack Sullivan kicked three goals each for the winning side.

Frankston YCW and Sorrento rounded out the winner’s list with thumping victories over Pines and Rosebud respectively. The Stonecats defeated the Pythons by 51, and the Sharks bested Rosebud by 81.

DIVISION TWO

KARINGAL got on the board for the 2022 season by notching up a win over Mornington.

Karingal hosted the Bulldogs on Good Friday.

Mornington had opportunities in front of goal, but wayward kicking cost them. Karingal took advantage and took out the win 14.9 (93) to 11.14 (80).

William Goosey had a good day for the Bulldogs, kicking three goals.

Rye picked up a big win on Friday. They put Tyabb to the sword.

The Yabbies couldn’t get close to Rye, who ran away with a 56 point win.

Andrew Dean was excellent for Rye, booting five goals. Tom Hughes and Tyrren Head kicked two each.

Yaphet starts to deliver on stable’s high hopes HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou CLIFF Brown’s promising three-year-old Yaphet has started to deliver on the stable’s high hopes with a narrow but decisive win at Sale on Friday 15 April.

Mornington-based trainer Cliff Brown has always thought the gelded son of Blackfriars would make a “nice horse” and his victory on Friday over another highly-spruiked galloper So You See reassured that belief.

The pair were neck-and-neck all the way down the straight but it was Yaphet who managed to get his nose down at the post to win the $100,000 benchmark 64 contest. There was a staggering sixlength margin back to the rest of the field.

Brown was certainly pleased with the result, with Yaphet having only had won a maiden race from his nine prior starts.

“He’s always given the indication that he’s above average. It was nice to see him do it,” Cliff Brown said.

“There’s been a few errors made along the way and his record should be better than it reads but it’s good to start to see that promise be delivered.

The second horse looks a really nice one too and they pulled away from the others so that was good to see.”

Brown pinpointed a 2000m three-year-old con-

test at Caulfield early next month that could suit the progressive stayer for his next outing.

Brown’s star sprinter The Inferno also competed in the $500,000 The Country Discovery at Sale on the same day.

He settled in his usual position towards the rear of the field and looked to have something to offer turning for home but wasn’t able to let down in the straight. He finished back in seventh and was 6.5-lengths away from the winner, In The Boat.

Brown believes he may not have had him fit enough after suffering a couple of setbacks throughout this prep.

“He hasn’t had a proper hit out since September,” Brown said. “He almost fell first-up in February and just followed the field around, and then we missed the run in the William Reid last month.

He had a few jumpouts heading into Friday but it’s shown that it’s just not the same as race-day fitness.”

Brown expects the talented sprinter to bounce back next start, as he did in his first prep in Australia when winning the Group 2 McEwen Stakes second-up.

“He over-raced similar to his first race in Australia (finished sixth) and he just knocked up,” Brown said. “He should improve with that under his belt now.”

The Inferno’s next race is yet to be decided.

A Good Friday: Cliff Brown’s promising stayer Yaphet demonstrates his above average ability with a win at Sale on Friday 15 April. Picture: Supplied HASTINGS Bowling Club's Good Friday tournament was a great success.

The day's sponsor David Gibbs and Associates Lawyers were represented

by David Gibbs and Marie Rose who both attended the club later in the day and were very impressed by the turnout and the good humour shown by everyone.

The club has raised over $2,000.00 for the Royal Children's Hospital thanks to the generosity of their members, those who played in the tournament and to other people that donated money.

One lady came in off the street and donated $100 to the hospital because it means so much to her.

The winners of the day were Frank Krslovic's composite team with Steve Brindle, Joe Turner and Bryce Chapman.

The runners up were Tex McClelland's composite team with Nigel Henderson, Dave Bewley and Sharon Jarvis.

The winner of the bowls set was David Wood from Belvedere and Charlie Burgess won the ladies shoes.

Baxter back with a bang SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie BAXTER kickstarted its season with a dominant performance against FC Noble Hurricanes at Alex Nelson Reserve last Thursday night.

The visitors got off to the perfect start after 65 seconds with Lachie McMinimee finishing off an Izaak Barr cross from inside the six yard box.

Baxter continued to create numerous chances with McMinimee hitting the bar and Dave Greening just missing the target.

The second goal came after 19 minutes and what a goal it was.

A magnificent Charlie O’Connell through ball sent Robbie O’Toole clear and he calmly rounded Hurricanes keeper Jimmy Zafiriou then stroked the ball into an empty net.

Eight minutes into the second half any hope of a home team comeback ended when Greening received the ball on the left then twisted and turned his defender inside out before lashing a shot from outside the box that was too hot for Zafiriou to deal with.

The onslaught continued and in the 65th minute Greening turned provider as his cross was turned into the net by substitute Lewis Gibson.

The exclamation mark on Baxter’s first win of the season came three minutes later when Greening beat the offside line and slotted the ball past a helpless Zafiriou.

In NPL2 Langwarrin’s stuttering start to a season of high expectation continued on Saturday with a 3-1 loss to visitors Moreland City.

Moreland keeper Alexander Kondoleon gifted the opener to Langy striker Mawien Nielo in the 2nd minute but two first-half headers from Fletcher Fulton and a breakaway goal from substitute Peter Constantinou in the second half sealed the home team’s fate.

If Langy is to stage a revival it will do so without off-season midfield recruit Jay Davies who is believed to have signed for Sydenham Park last week.

On a positive note spectators who arrived at Lawton Park early were treated to an attacking clinic as the under-21s overwhelmed their opponent 11-0.

Young striker Allen Dzemedzic will remember this match for a while after his hat-trick and being involved in a number of slick interpassing moves.

In State 1 Mornington fought back from a two-goal deficit to draw 2-2 with Fitzroy City at Kevin Bartlett Reserve on Saturday.

Fitzroy led 1-0 at half-time and went further ahead in the 49th minute following a goalkeeping blunder from Josh Gates.

A Matt Harrington header from a John Maclean free-kick made it 2-1 in the 63rd minute and the equaliser came from a Josh Heaton header following a corner with 10 minutes to go.

In State 2 Peninsula Strikers retained a perfect record with a convincing 4-0 away win over struggling Monbulk Rangers who were forced to forfeit the reserves fixture.

Monbulk keeper Beau Newman couldn’t deal with Huss Chehimi’s long floated ball from the left in the 33rd minute for the opener and the struggling home side was dealt a bodyblow four minutes from the interval with a straight red for Gus Clark in what looked like an extremely harsh decision.

The 10 men went further behind in the 48th minute with a Cooper Andrews tap-in following good work and a cross from the right by Abe Kuol.

An Ahmad Tabbara overlap on the left and cutback was met first time

by Jai Power to make it 3-0 after 57 minutes.

In the final minute of normal time Monbulk’s Liam Jones didn’t take kindly to being brushed aside by

Strikers’ substitute Mohsen Chehimi and retaliated with a rash challenge inside the area.

Kuol converted from the spot.

Club historian Laurence Hall believes it is the first time in Strikers’ history that the club has recorded four consecutive clean sheets and players and coaches celebrated the occasion in the dressing room after the match with a song dedicated to the goalkeepers.

Last Thursday night Skye travelled to Esther Park to take on secondplaced Mooroolbark and left with a point following a 1-1 draw.

It was a physical affair from the getgo but it took until five minutes into the second half for Mooroolbark’s Liam Seaye to break the deadlock with a shot from outside the area.

Skye striker Daniel Attard’s strike hit the post then minutes later Mitch Blake’s shot was pushed wide by Barkers’ keeper Mark Naumowicz.

Skye’s pressure paid off in the 80th minute when the head of big Alex Van Heerwarden met Mark O’Connor’s free kick for the leveller despite the goalline effort of home team defender Daniel Higgins.

In State 3 Frankston Pines’ promotion push continued last Thursday night with a 2-0 home win over Whitehorse United.

A piece of Dylan Waugh ingenuity opened the scoring in the 56th minute when his first time volley from outside the area lobbed over the Whitehorse keeper.

In the 66th minute Jordan Avraham’s free kick to the far post was headed back across goal for an Aaran Currie tap-in.

In State 4 a spiteful encounter between home team Noble Park and Somerville Eagles finished 3-3.

Noble Park ended the match with nine men after Adrian Mota and goalkeeper Zulkifli Zulkifli were sent off in the second half.

Somerville led in the 15th minute thanks to a low shot from the edge of the area from Chris Thomas but was 3-1 down with six minutes of normal time left.

That was the cue for supersub Josh Simmons to make his mark as he pounced on goalmouth scrambles in the 84th and 90th minutes and slotted the ball home both times.

Chelsea and Dandenong South drew 2-2 at Edithvale Recreation Reserve on Friday night.

Chelsea went 1-0 down in the 33rd minute but equalised a minute later when Chris Scott unleashed a superb drive from outside the area.

Dandenong South hit the front again in the 50th minute and the home side

WIN

had to rely on the late, late show from Piers Brelsford who reacted quickest to a corner and headed home at the near post.

In State 5 Mount Martha’s first win of the season was powered by an Ethan Sanderson hat-trick and his assist for Mitch Hawkins’ goal.

Chris Sanderson’s young side won 4-3 against Aspendale Stingrays at Jack Grut Reserve on Saturday.

They now face another challenge this Friday when they travel to Olympic Park to take on what could be a much-changed Rosebud line-up.
