Walkers for a cause FOUR fit and active women are setting off on a 100 kilometre walk tomorrow (Wednesday) to raise $15,000 for the Dogs for Diggers program which assists veterans suffering post-traumatic stress disorder. Leading seamen Freya Halliday and Kathleen Price, of HMAS Cerberus, personal trainer Lisa Beakley, and Navy wife Rachael Eslick, all 30, start their four-day Mornington Peninsula walk on Wednesday. The four women have been training for past four months with weekly 10km walks. Initially their target was $7500 for three dogs but, by Monday, they had already received $9000 and so their target has doubled. Their walk will take in Dromana, Portsea, Point Nepean and then along the Bass Strait coast to Cape Schanck, returning to Dromana through the Mornington Peninsula National Park. Fit and enthusiastic: Rachael Eslick, leading seamen Freya Halliday and Kathleen Price, and Lisa Beakley. Picture: Yanni See “Walkers set off for dogs to help troubled minds” Page 5

Mayor allowed over the ‘limit’ Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au A TRIP to Canberra this week by Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Graham Pittock on top of him already spending more than $10,000 in "professional development" has again highlighted concerns about the vagueness of the councillor expenses policy. Cr Pittock is rubbing shoulders with political leaders at this month's National General Assembly from 19-22 June. While in Canberra Cr Pittock will

also try to persuade the federal government to help pay for the establishment of a maritime museum at Hastings. The $15 million museum will be based around the Otama submarine, which has been languishing at anchor since being brought to Western Port 14 years ago. (“Sub safe for now as moorings fixed”, see Page 3) On Monday last week, council approved Cr Pittock's request to attend, despite the mayor already having spent $10,091 on “professional development” this term. Cr Pittock will attend as an official

representative of the shire at the estimated cost of $2678 allocated to his conferences and seminars account. A report detailing the request noted that legal advice from Maddocks Lawyers in March this year found that the council's expenses policy is “not clear” and that the $4000 annual councillor allocation should be used as “an example” rather than a capped figure. As a result of the legal advice, council's governance manager Joe Spiteri said council will review the councillor expenses policy before 1 July. Cr Hugh Fraser quizzes council man-

agement over his belief that the legal advice was requested by Cr Antonella Celi, who was under fire at the time for her own expenses budget blowout. However, when CEO Carl Cowie was asked whether he received a request from Cr Celi he replied: “This one was from me”. Mr Spiteri also denied receiving a request by Cr Celi to seek legal advice on councillors' expenses, although he did recall receiving “emails of concern”. “No I didn't. I recall having a conversation with the CEO to clarify our position.” Mr Spiteri said.

He said the legal advice was “general” in nature and applied to all councillors equally. After the meeting Cr Pittock said he hoped to network with politicians and other local government officials at the assembly, which is expected to be attended by Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Opposition leader Bill Shorten. The title of this year's assembly, which will focus on ways local government around the world is being “innovative”, is Partners in Innovative and Prosperous Australia.

Sub safe as moorings take hold Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE submarine Otama is again firmly held in place by its moorings of Crib Point, avoiding urgent action which could have included being sold for scrap. A decision by Ports Minister Luke Donnellan to fix the moorings follows desperate appeals from the Western Port Oberon Association for $50,000 to carry out repairs ordered by Park Victoria. However, the 14-year-old plan to make the Otama the centrepiece of maritime museum at Hastings remains in limbo because of financial difficulties. The association’s president Max Bryant puts the cost at $15 million and says that if either the state or federal governments provide $2 million “seed funding” private investors would become involved (“Sub would bring jobs and growth to Hastings” Letters Page 41). Mr Bryant was reluctant to speak with The News on Monday, saying he “could not confirm” but had “heard whispers” that the moorings had been repaired although “no one has been paid at this stage”. Acting Port of Hastings harbour master Martin Leavold said port operator Patrick Ports - Hastings had been contracted to make the moorings comply with regulations by Parks Victoria. He said the work had involved a barge and divers “and it’s [the Otama] all now secure to our satisfaction”. Parks Victoria’s manager moorings

and port service operations, Phil Fowler, confirmed the moorings were now secure and that the work had been carried out by Patricks. He said an agreement had been reached between Parks – which had ordered the repairs – and the Otama association, but would not reveal the cost of the work. With the submarine secure for the moment, Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Graham Pittock is also out to try and secure funds for the multi-million dollar project. Cr Pittock said by MLC for Eastern Victoria Daniel Mulino made representation to Minister for Ports Luke Donellan for the much needed funds, and the work was carried out at the beginning of June. “Within a week of making the represen-

tation the Otama was correctly moored, it's brilliant,” he said. Cr Pittock plans to seek more funding for the Otama museum project while representing the shire at the National General Assembly in Canberra. He told The News he plans to put forward the case for funding for the Otama to the Regional Development Authority and the federal government. The Otama, a decommissioned Oberon-class submarine, was towed to Hastings from Freemantle in 2002, after being bought from the Defence Department with a $500,000 grant from the federal government's Federation Fund. Mr Bryant says the Otama is owned by the Western Port Oberon Association and along with the former Port Phillip Sea Pi-

lots vessel the Wyuna will form the main attraction of the Victorian Maritime Museum at Hastings. Writing in the December 2015 SubScriber newsletter, Mr Bryant said “biggest low of the year was our so called million dollar grant prior to the last election”. “All were ecstatic when we learned we had successfully secured this grant which was supposedly not subject to the election. On the pretence of receiving the grant funds were expended only to discover after the election the funds did not exist.” This lack of money then led to the moorings crisis which, now fixed, means the association can now concentrate on raising the $7m needed to bring the Otama ashore at Hastings.

It’s back to the buses BUSES will replace trains on the Stony Point line between Stony Point and Frankston, Saturday 25 June to Sunday 31 July. Customers are advised to allow an extra 15 minutes travel time. The line closure is a result of level crossings being removed at North Rd, Ormond, McKinnon Rd, McKinnon, and Centre Rd, Bentleigh, on the Frankston line. The works prevent Stony Point line trains being taken to Southern Cross station for maintenance, effectively putting them out of action. V/Line provides two Sprinter cars for the Stony Point line out of a pool of 21 Sprinters. As part of the fleet maintenance program, the cars are serviced at 11,500 kilometres, or every 23 days, at the Bombardier depot at Southern Cross station. Buses will also replace trains between Caulfield and Frankston stations from 9pm until the last service each night from Sunday 26 June to Wednesday 29 June. Customers with special needs have been advised to contact their local station in advance or ask staff at the replacement bus stops to organise travel. For journey planning and service information, visit the PTV website or call 1800 800 007.

Walkers set off for dogs to help troubled minds

HUNT MP

Working Together, Getting Results Local priorities I am fighting for include: • The upgrade of Rosebud Hospital to a 150 bed facility. • Greater investment for HMAS Cerberus ($500 million committed). • Upgrades for Forest Drive Mt Martha, Jetty Road Rosebud and other dangerous intersections. • A new facility for the Mt Martha Junior Soccer Club and construction of a new hockey field ($1 million committed). • A new athletics track to support junior athletes on the Mornington Peninsula ($2 million committed). • Dromana and Tyabb Football Clubs ($300,000 committed).

Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au FOUR women are setting off on a 100 kilometre walk tomorrow (Wednesday) to raise $15,000 for the Dogs for Diggers program. Leading seamen Freya Halliday and Kathleen Price, of HMAS Cerberus, personal trainer Lisa Beakley, and Navy wife Rachael Eslick, all 30, hope money raised on the four-day trek will buy several companion dogs for service personnel who are having difficulties coping with the stresses and fall-out of their military service. Many of these serving and former Defence personnel are on medication and some too anxious and distressed even to go to public places. But this all changes when they get their dogs, which are non-judgmental, love their new masters unconditionally and are loyal and devoted friends. More than 10,000 Australian veterans live with post-traumatic stress disorder, and, so far, the Dogs for Diggers program has helped 93. It has also possibly saved the lives of the rescued dogs – of all breeds – which may have faced a bleak future without being tasked with this supportive role. The four women have been training hard over the past four months with weekly 10km training

sessions. Initially their target was $7500 for three dogs to be trained by the Young Diggers Dog Squad, but, by Monday, they had already received $9000, so their target was doubled. “The walk came about through friends who were keen to do it for fun, and we thought we’d like to do it too, but for charity,” said Ms Price, who has been in the Navy for 15 years. “Then we thought we would see what we could do Defence-wise.” While the walk was the prime money raiser, other activities now include a trivia night, barbecue and even a dunk tank – the “more money we raise the better”. The full Mornington Peninsula Walk combines four walks: the Two Bays, through the hinterland from Dromana to Cape Schanck; Coastal, through the Mornington Peninsula National Park along the Bass Strait coast from Cape Schanck to Portsea; Point Nepean, in and around the Point Nepean National Park; and the Bay, from Portsea to Dromana along Port Phillip. The women will start at Dromana, 8am, and walk anti-clockwise to reach their goal. It will be a tough challenge but, thanks to the generosity of their sponsors, the women will rest easy after each of their three nights “on the road” thanks to Peppers Resort, Cape Schanck, which will provide free accommodation.

Invite to walk the plank for better beach outlook A BUY a plank offer will see donors names carved into the surface of a beach access boardwalk to be built at Pt Leo. Plans for the boardwalk have already been drawn and the Disabled Surfers Association Mornington Peninsula branch is close to raising money needed for its construction. The boardwalk will provide wheelchair access to the beach and a viewing platform for lifesavers and the public. While still S20,000 short, the DSAMP has received grants from Mornington Peninsula Shire and the Department of Infrastructure. Carving names into planks forming the surface of the boardwalk is one of several options being followed to raise the remainder of the money. In surfing terms, a plank is a long surfboard, and walking the plank (a surfing manoeuvre) seems an appropriate metaphor for going for a stroll along the boardwalk. Ash Gardner, re-elected branch president at the DSAMP’s 7 June annual general meeting, said the proposed all abilities boardwalk would run from the Point Leo lifesaving clubhouse to the beach and enable the branch’s beach wheelchairs to be used by the public. The purpose-built wheelchairs have wide, inflatable tyres which allow them to be pushed across soft sand. At the moment use of the wheelchairs is limited to the branch’s two annual surfing events at Point Leo.

Mr Gardner said branch’s two annual surfing events had enabled 245 disabled people of all ages and abilities to participate in a surfing experience. More than 560 volunteers had helped out at the events, both in the water and on land. “Through our events we aim to unite our local community, schools, businesses and residents,” he said in his annual report. “A good example was running three sessions of our disability awareness in schools program at Frankston High School. Twenty of the students then came and volunteered on the day.” Mr Gardner said the DSA’s main aim was to “put smiles on dials – that is, to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for people with any disability”. “The 2015/6 season brought many new ideas, engaged new members of our community and saw a greater number of school-aged kids volunteering at our events. “It also delivered continual improvement of our systems, development of volunteer roles and development of our volunteers through training.” An auction of surfboards decorated in VFL teams’ colours had raised $12,000 which would be used to buy new equipment for the surfing events as well as helping pay for the boardwalk. Mr Gardner said new volunteers, surfing participants and sponsors were welcome to contact the branch through the disabled.org website or DSA-MP Facebook site. Keith Platt

Consciences could have consequences for candidates CANDIDATES for the Flinders electorate have been invited to speak at a forum in Dromana on 29 June. The candidates will be asked to explain their views on “conscience issues” such as marriage, euthanasia and abortion. The forum will come a week after Pastor Rob Ward, former Victorian director of Australian Christian Lobby, explains what the major parties “plan to endorse as normal in marriage and education and how your vote can change the very fabric of our society for generations”. Both events are being held at Dromana Presbyterian Church. “Economic policies, education, climate change and health spending, all of these are important but how about what is morally right? What is

right for our nation, right for our future, for our children and our grandchildren?” the Rev Michael Wishart said. “There are big issues at stake here that are not being covered in the media.

Racing an odds-on favourite topic SUPPORTERS of Peninsula Home Hospice came together, Friday, for the Mornington Auxiliary’s annual lunch to raise funds for home-based palliative care. The Mornington Racing Club brunch appropriately took on a racing theme with guest speakers Emma Freedman (of Dancing-with-the-Stars, racing family and TV presenter), Patrick Bartley (chief racing writer for The Age) and milliner Felicity Northeast sharing stories and insights into their fields. Ms Freedman, interviewed on stage by Jamie Crowder, of Community Real Estate, talked about how she got her first break into the industry (scoring the weather gig on the Today Show), how she has learnt to be more resilient after not having her contract with Channel 9 renewed, how Dancing with the Stars was “one of the most fun things I’ve ever done” and how much pride she takes in her anchor role on Wide World of Sports. Mr Bartley shared insights into the punting habits of some well known and influential men and talked about how Makybe Diva was, in his opinion, a total freak and “the best horse of all time”. Ms Northeast, who took up millinery as a career while primary carer to her mother, discussed the process of making a hat or fascinator, the hours that go into her designs and explained the term mad hatters – how old-time milliners were slowly dying of lead poisoning and going a little loopy at the same time.

Pokies update A REVISED framework for controlling the use and number of gaming machines and minimising harm to the community on the Mornington Peninsula was adopted by council on Monday. A report by the social planning and development department revealed $79,400,240 was lost through the 821 pokier machine in the shire during 2014/2015, with the daily loss rate being $217,535. The report found that although gambling is recognised as a “legitimate leisure and entertainment activity”, it acknowledged the potential for financial and social harm. The new Responsible Electronic Gaming Machine policy aims to encourage responsible gaming by guiding council's decisions on the location and design of gaming venues. The policy updates the 2001 document and the results of the outcome of the exhibition of the background paper and draft strategy and action plan 2007. In the report, author and acting team leader Kathy Heffernan noted the financial contribution that gaming venues make to the community, but accepted that council had a role in protecting the shire's vulnerable communities from the detrimental impacts of gambling through a “health and wellbeing” approach. The draft policy will be available for public comment for four weeks.

Rangers take charge for outdoors holiday fun POINT Nepean National Park, Cape Schanck Lighthouse Reserve and Coolart Wetlands and Historic Homestead are ideal venues for children’s winter holiday fun, 29 June-7 July. Parks Victoria’s upcoming free junior ranger program – hosted by rangers for children aged 6-12 – shares the hidden mysteries of our special places as children enjoy energetic experiences while connecting with the Mornington Peninsula environment and its history. With few lighthouses in Australia still operating, the children can explore an actual working lighthouse at the free Cape Schanck Lighthouse Tours, Friday 1 July and Wednesday 6 July. They can climb the stairs to the top and hear stories about other lighthouse-keeper kids and shipwrecks on the peninsula. The program proves that you don’t need online games to keep the kids amused when it’s cold outside. The Point Nepean National Park Tour de Forts allows children to explore tunnels and gun emplacements as they discover military history, while following one another through mysterious doorways and dimly lit tunnels. Children will burn off energy as they take part in heritage games and nature fun-facts indoors at the Quarantine Station. Budding bird-watchers are invited to bring their binoculars to Coolart Wetlands and Homestead on Thursday 7 July. A popular program at Coolart, called Finding Feathered Friends, helps children learn bird identification skills in the coastal and wetland environment, stretching both their minds and their legs. The winter junior ranger program is well loved by families and regular visitors, with many children developing life-long passions for the environment and history. It’s also a great way to get them active outdoors and out from

To see it, you’ll need to ditch the binoculars and grab a mask, snorkel and wetsuit because it’s in the waters of Port Phillip. Around this time every year as the waters cool, hundreds of thousands of giant spider crabs make their way up onto the sandy shallows along the southern shores of the bay. As the name suggests these crabs are impressive in size, with a body measuring over 17cm and long legs that stretch up to 70cm. The result is an orange army of crabs that blanket the shallows, which can stretch for hundreds of metres and crabs can be 10 deep. Scientists believe this aggregation is a case of safety in numbers. Like their crustacean relatives, giant spider crabs need to shed their hard protective shell to grow. During this time their body is soft and they are vulnerable to the mouths of hungry hunters such as rays, seals and even birds. Getting together in such huge numbers to moult reduces the chance of being eaten. Surprisingly, there has been little research conducted on this natural phenomenon, although an active community of citizen scientists are doing a great job of documenting their movements. It’s a sight that needs to be seen to be believed. The bonus is, anyone can. Where? Around the southern end of Port Phillip. The crabs are still on the move and you can keep updated on the Spider Crabs Melbourne Facebook page, which has regular reports of their whereabouts and the best time to safely see them. Although they’re harmless, it is not recommended to pick up the crabs.

SALE Hill twitchers: Birdwatchers were out in force at Olivers Hill, Frankston, early Saturday morning hoping to spot a frigate bird seen there the previous day. Pictures: Steve Kuiter (frigate bird) and Gary Sissons (crowd)

Frigate’s once in a century visit NEWS that a frigate bird has been spotted at Frankston quickly spread among the birdwatching community. An online post led to a crowd on Olivers Hill, many clutching binoculars or cameras in the hope of catching a glimpse or a photographic record of a bird not recorded as being seen in Port Phillip for at least 100 years. Wildlife photographer Steve Kuiter hard that the bird with a distinctive “red balloon” throat had been seen about 9am Friday 10 June but was unable to get to get down there until 3pm. Undeterred he walked to the base of the cliff and hid among rocks, armed with a 80-400mm zoom lens on his Nikon D810. Amazingly, the frigate bird hovered nearby, too close at one stage to even fit in the lens. He waited around until dark to make sure the bird did not roost too close to the ground where it could become prey to foxes and cats. Once satisfied that the stranger from Australia’s tropical north was safely tucked away in a pine tree, Kuiter published his full frame shots on the internet, adding to the excitement

so much that the birdwatchers were again out in force Saturday morning. But the wind had changed and that particular frigate had sailed, although reports were again hitting the twitcherverse of another one being spotted near Geelong. Kuiter said the bird appeared to dive for a fish – probably whitebait – while he was photographing “but it moved its head sideways, preventing me from seeing”. “We’re a bit worried he might be hungry because these birds would normally be eating 50 fish an hour,” he said. “He’s probably been blown down here by last week’s storms.” Last year birdwatchers were all agog when first a tropic bird and then a northern great petrel arrived at Mornington. The birds were captured and hand fed until fit enough to fly home. The petrel was released close to where it was found while the tropic bird enjoyed a drive north before being freed in a warmer clime. Keith Platt

Future views for planners WHILE politicians, including Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors, put forward their views to secure election, a community group is ready to gather data to assess what residents want for the peninsula. The federal election is on 2 July and council elections in October. Peninsula Speaks is compiling a list of people to participate in an online survey about what people want for the peninsula of the future so the results can be given to state, federal and local governments. “We’re nearly there with the numbers we need to release the survey,” co-founder of Peninsula Speaks Christine Haydon said. “But we can’t proceed until we have enough numbers to make the findings reliable and meaningful.” Ms Haydon said it was “important that all citizens of the Mornington Peninsula take the time to articulate their priorities and simply not sit back and let others dictate”.

Fellow co-founder Peter Avery said the federal and local government elections provides “us an opportunity to reflect and think about priorities for our local area”. “The surveys will be an opportunity to voice opinions regarding important topics such as tourism, climate change and population growth,” he said. The multiple-choice survey will be independently managed and analysed before its results are passed on to the three levels of government. Mr Avery said Peninsula Speaks wants to “gain the widest possible range of views about the Mornington Peninsula, both now and how it could be by 2030”. Answers to the survey would “identify the key priorities for the future and help inform and guide the key decision makers on the peninsula”.

Light coloured for a cause PASSERS-BY may have wondered why McCrae lighthouse was brightly lit in purple last week for a good reason. Purple is the international colour of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day which affects many Mornington Peninsula residents. The day, Wednesday 15 June, was celebrated here and all over the world as a way of focusing public attention on its significance as a public health and human rights issue. Elder abuse is any act which harms an older person and is carried out by someone they know or trust, such as family and friends. It can include physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional or psychological abuse, financial exploitation and neglect. On the day, shire customer service officers wore purple ribbons and displayed posters to highlight the message, and McCrae Lions pitched in to get the vibrant shading just right. The shire’s advisory committee on ageing and Peninsula Advisory Committee for Elders (PACE) helped raise awareness with information stands at Rosebud Plaza and Benton Square shopping centre.

NEWS DESK Road returns MT Martha property owners who have already paid a special charge scheme for sealed roads will share in a windfall of around $500,000. Under Mornington Peninsula Shire's special charge scheme, most road sealing and associated works costs are shared between the shire and property owners. However, the final costs for the McLeod Rd group, and Shanns Av and Jeanine Court special charge schemes fell short of the original estimates. The refund applies to property owners who have paid their share of the scheme in full.

New site sought A FEASIBILITY study costing $45,000 will investigate new sites for the redeveloped Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery, after a report to council found it was unlikely to be a major tourist drawcard or attract government grants because of its â&#x20AC;&#x153;poorâ&#x20AC;? location. The gallery is in Civic Reserve, off Mornington-Tyabb and Dunns roads, Mornington. A report by redevelopment consultants found that the location of the gallery was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;significant and insurmountable stumbling blockâ&#x20AC;? in attracting major funding and development of an appropriate business plan. The report describes the gallery as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;remarkable and iconicâ&#x20AC;? building that would fail to attract essential funding unless the redevelopment was underpinned by a feasibility study proving the galleryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s destination or Mornington Peninsula location could â&#x20AC;&#x153;attract visitor numbersâ&#x20AC;?.

Singers gear for trip of a lifetime Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE sights and sounds of The Big Apple are a tantalising prospect for singers from Mornington Peninsula Chorale who will perform at Carnegie Hall in January. The 50 choristers will join others from around the world at the Distinguished Concerts Singers International, with Sir Karl Jenkins as composer-in-residence, and artistic director Jonathan Griffith as conductor of the performance. The invitation to sing came about after the chorale performed Sir Karlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Armed Man at Frankston Arts Centre last year for the Anzac Day centenary celebrations. Senior chorister Judi McKee wrote to Sir Karl who invited the chorale to audition for a performance. They sent an audio-visual tape over â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he loved it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and New York is now in the offing. Especially thrilled about the trip are five members of the Wearne family: Marcelle, Larry, Brenda, Heather, and Peter, who joined the chorale in 2012 and who all live on the Mornington Peninsula. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a tremendous surprise; a fabulous opportunity,â&#x20AC;? tenor Larry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Within our family, singing and music have always featured strongly, and our home was always filled with music of some sort or another â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from classical music to contemporary and everything in between,â&#x20AC;? Marcelle Kirby (nee Wearne) said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our sister Heather would spend hours playing Beethoven on her piano

and, when she was too ill from chronic asthma, listening from her bed.â&#x20AC;? Brother Larry added: â&#x20AC;&#x153;She couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run around outside with us so music became her thing.â&#x20AC;? Peter was given a Gilbert & Sullivan record for his 10th birthday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poor Pete,â&#x20AC;? Marcelle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a disappointment that must have been for him, but mum loved their works and encouraged and fostered that in us.â&#x20AC;? She recalled, years ago, the family sitting around the piano with a tape recorder singing for their brother, Robin, away fighting in Vietnam, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;helping him feel close to us and remind him of homeâ&#x20AC;?.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Growing up in a large family there were lots of household chores we all had to share and a great way to get through them was to have music accompanying a sing along.â&#x20AC;? Marcelle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We sang to everything: musicals such as Oliver and Sound of Music, choral works, The Beatles, Joan Baez, The Eagles, Elton John ... the record player and radio were rarely quiet.â&#x20AC;? Cheekily calling themselves the Wearne Family Singers, Marcelle admits: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are really just part of the choir where we gain so many benefits from belonging. We love to sing with our fellow choristers, especially the

oratorios and the proms.â&#x20AC;? Larry added: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being part of the choir promotes a feeling of wellbeing, pride and connectedness. We love it.â&#x20AC;? Members of the Wearne family will sing at the Mornington Peninsula Choraleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next performance of Frankston Music Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proms concert Heroes & Heroines, 2.30pm, Sunday 21 August, at the Frankston Arts Centre.

A MORNINGTON man is in jail following what police describe as a “landmark” child exploitation case. The 57-year-old was arrested after Joint Anti Child Exploitation Team detectives raided his home in September. The case is the first to be presented before a Victorian court relating to charges of producing child exploitation material outside Australia. Acting Sergeant Paul Turner, of the police media unit, said the case highlighted the high level of investigative expertise of the Joint Anti Child Exploitation Team who target child sexual exploitation offences internationally. The arrest ended a year-long investigation into the man’s production and possession of child pornography, following visits to the Philippines 2012-2015, where he took nude photos of a young girl and two teenage girls. Investigators found more than 2700 child exploitation images on the man’s electronic devices. The man pleaded guilty at the Melbourne County Court and was sentenced to 21 months jail for producing child exploitation material outside Australia and accessing and making available child exploitation material in Australia. The man will be released after serving 15 months and then serve an 18 months community corrections order for possessing child exploitation material. He may also have to pay $1500 recognisance.

Jailed over siege THE man at the centre of the Rye siege last December has been jailed for three years. Colin Wade Gower, 69, of Rye, held his estranged wife, and a co-worker, hostage for

seven hours in a Point Nepean Rd cafe, causing mayhem for weekend shoppers. He was armed with two low-calibre hand guns. Angry traders later said they missed out on thousands of dollars in trade after specialist tactical police shut their shops and cordoned off the area. Gower pleaded guilty in the County Court to five charges. The court was told he repeatedly threatened to kill his wife – who he believed had a boyfriend – while reading from notebooks he called “ramblings of an angry man”. The siege ended peacefully when Gower handed himself in. He had no relevant prior convictions and reportedly suffered PTSD due to a traumatic childhood. He will be eligible for parole in 18 months.

After 35 years, the force is still with the sergeant Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au IT’S tempting to say that the years have flown for Dromana police sergeant Paul Dixon, who recently received his 35-year clasp at an awards ceremony for Mornington Peninsula and Frankston police officers. Joining as a 17-year-old cadet in 1980, Sgt Dixon completed his HSC (now VCE) as part of the educational squad and was named academic cadet of the year. He was off to a good start and being paid the grand amount of $93 a week, minus $15 for board, lodgings and food at the Spencer St complex where he lived-in for 12 months. Sgt Dixon’s first training station was Mornington, followed by stints at the Russell St police complex, Frankston Community Policing Squad, Rosebud, St Kilda Rd and Dromana, where he has been since 2012. Over the years, there have been plenty of amusing incidents. A smile comes onto Sgt Dixon’s face as he recalls the time another sergeant – who considered himself a dab hand at controlling boats at sea – took the controls during a boating program on the bay. “He pulled the boat into a sharp 90-degree turn, throwing the Senior Sergeant overboard. “After we stopped laughing and rescued him, the boat-driving sergeant had to think twice about his boating prowess.”

Time on his side: Dromana sergeant Paul Dixon contemplates 35 years in the force and, inset, on his graduation day in 1981. Picture: Yanni

A proud moment was receiving the district commendation, while at St Kilda Rd, for peacefully negotiating the successful outcome of a siege while a man held children hostage in 1991. A typical day at Dromana includes “touching base” with other police and following up on outstanding cases or inquiries. “The focus is on safety, community engagement, particularly around local

CFA and SES matters, businesses and other organisations or people in the area,” he said. He recalls the welcome introduction of labour-saving measures such as the transition to computer databases. “To do a car check when I joined meant calling D24 on the radio, who then rang the Motor Registration Branch (now VicRoads) who would do a manual check and call you back,” he said. “This could take up to 15 minutes. Now we have mobile data terminals

in the police car that link us to all the systems to give us this information immediately.” Sadly, the rise in the use of drugs and their impact on victims through aggressive behaviour and a rise in assaults is something Sergeant Dixon and his colleagues must come to grips with. Other changes include the force’s community and policing approach to family violence. “We are far more cognisant of the depth and impact on the community

and have better systems and approaches to challenge offenders,” he said. “There are far more agencies and referral supports with which we can engage victims. This has been a long time coming and really helps us to try and break the cycle and the severity of the violence.” Sgt Dixon’s loyalty and service are well regarded by other officers. “We are really proud of Paul’s commitment to Victoria Police,” Inspector Karen Nyholm said.

Parties poles apart on ice fight BIPARTISANSHIP is thin on the ground around plans to tackle the scourge of ice in Dunkley ahead of the 2 July federal election. Both the Liberal and Labor candidates for the marginal seat are taking pot-shots at political opponents over similar approaches to help drug users in the Frankston and Mornington regions to hopefully also drive down crime associated with ice. Liberal contender Chris Crewther launched an “ice action plan” this month to establish a Frankston and peninsula taskforce “to fight the savage effects of the drug” and said Labor had ignored increasing ice use. “Labor ignored ice. Labor failed to renew the advertising about the dangers of ice and ice use doubled between 2010 and 2013,” Mr Crewther said. “The Turnbull Liberal government carefully considered the issues raised by the National Ice Taskforce, and the broader Australian community, and is investing $298 million over four years to tackle the problem of ice and other drugs.” State Premier Daniel Andrews announced a

Labor state government $45.5 million “ice action plan” in March last year to support communities across Victoria battle the negative effects of the highly addictive drug. The federal Liberal ice action plan across Australia mirrors the Victorian government’s commitment to work with health professionals, police and rehabilitation services to try to stem the rise in the use of ice. At the launch of the federal government’s ice action plan for Dunkley Mr Crewther said he had “personal family experience with drug and ice use ... it is a thing I am very passionate about tackling.” Mr Crewther said there is widespread concern in Frankston about a ‘cluster’ of pharmacotherapy (methadone) outlets in the centre of Frankston near the train station. “It is clear from my discussions with locals there is a need to bring together local medical leaders, including representatives of local pharmacies, to have common-sense discussions and find a solution to the concentration of pharmacotherapy out-

lets in Frankston,” he said. Labor candidate for Dunkley Peta Murphy said ice and illicit drug use are “complex issues”. “There is already a high-level project working on issues surrounding pharmocotherapy in Frankston well under way, and which I am a part of,” she said. “It involves the local council, state government, Peninsula Health, local medical professionals, Monash and Melbourne University. “I was invited to be involved as a local with 16 years’ experience in the justice system, having worked on drug and alcohol issues and with families and individuals affected by ice and illicit drugs.” Ms Murphy said the Liberals have taken “late action on ice” ahead of next month’s federal election. “It does not make up for the almost $1 billion they have cut from the health Flexible Funds, which among other health priorities, fund drug treatment and rehabilitation services.” The politicisation of the drugs problem for po-

tential political gain by each major party in Dunkley shows the seat is poised on a knife edge. Internal Labor polls suggested Ms Murphy held a 52-48 per cent lead over her Liberal rival but a weekend Newspoll revealed a possible swing to Labor in Dunkley after the retirement of outgoing long-time Liberal MP Bruce Billson may not be enough to gain the seat. The Newspoll opinion survey focused on marginal seats across Australia and found Labor may not make enough ground in several marginal seats needed to win government even if the party’s overall vote increases on 2013’s federal poll. The Dunkley poll found Labor is on track at this stage to gain a 3.6 per cent swing but this would not be enough to overcome the 5.1 per cent margin currently held by the Liberal Party in the seat. Newspoll opinion surveys are overseen by Galaxy Research and are regularly published in News Corp’s The Australian newspaper. Neil Walker

The Western Port Whisperer A CERTAIN Whispererâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very large ears have been in overdrive recently with several reports of near misses at the traffic light pedestrian crossing near the intersection of High Street and Frankston- Flinders Road in Hastings. Of the half dozen reports The Whisperer and Mrs Whisperer have heard in the last month, there seems to be a common theme in these near misses; that they have happened when cars travelling south along Frankston- Flinders Road have failed to stop at the red traffic lights when pedestrians are crossing. The Whisperer and Mrs Whisperer are traffic management geniuses, but recognise the issue seems to be a lack of green traffic lights at these set of lights. For some reason, the red and amber traffic lights facing traffic going south along Frankston- Flinders Road have never been joined by their green counterpart. Surely, by indicating there are traffic lights ahead (ie with a green light), people will be more prepared to stop at the amber or red lights. *** THE candidates have been confirmed for the upcoming federal election, The Whisperer is disappointed to report his nomination to run as a candidate in Flinders was rejected, as according to the AEC, lodging a nomination under the name â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Western Port Whispererâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was against the rules. The people at the AEC had great difficulty accepting that The Whispererâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents had seen fit to name their child â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Western Portâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the first place. And everybody knows, there has been

a long tradition of kooky names in the Whisperer family tree. The Whisperer doubts he would have these name issues in the US, where Deez Nuts was accepted as a genuine candidate. Nonetheless, The Whisperer will not been dissuaded by these technicalities and is happy to announce he plans to stand in the council elections in October. The Whisperer has decided to start his campaign without delay. Spread the word by cutting out, and placing the campaign poster in a strategic location or stick it in the back window of your car. *** Mrs Whisperer was driving â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Whisperer mobileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the other day, and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but note Frankston- Flinders Road near Hawkins Road (Baxter) has recently been resurfaced. The problem is that the old surface was actually better. This stretch of road is one which has had issues with its surface for a long time, to the point the constant patchwork done over the years christened this section of Frankston- Flinders Road as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Patchwork Roadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The fixing of this road, with a surface stronger than baking soda would be a great outcome. Hopefully VicRoads is cooking up a solution as opposed to another excuse. *** HEARD any Whispers?

$200 CASHBACK Serving the

Mornington Peninsula

0432 398 793

Deadline comes and goes for cliff path Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au IT should be billed as one of the great short walks of the Mornington Peninsula, but it has been officially closed for years. The footpath known as the Beleura cliff path at Mornington winds its way along a cliff before descending steeply to Mills Beach. The track democratises views only available from the multi-million dollar properties built above it on the cliff face. Not everyone can own such a property because (a) there’s not enough space on the cliff and (b) few people have the money to live there. But the path was made for the public and the views are free. However, parts of the bitumen track have been undermined. There have been landslips and safety rails and fences are broken, with drainage from the grand properties above being blamed. Stormwater from the properties is supposed to be piped directly to the beach below, but over the years pipes have ruptured allowing water to seep into the ground. In some cases pipes ended above the beach, saturating and eroding the cliff. Despite “track closed” signs and others warning of danger, the track is used by hundreds of people each week. It is an integral part of a walk that takes in Mills Beach, parts of The Esplanade, Kalimna Drive and Caraar Creek Lane. One builder, who did not wish to be identified, remembers a shire building inspector being strict about the storm water drains going all the way to the

Scenic views: Views only available to the public from the cliff path leading to Mills Beach from Caraar Creek Lane.

beach “because houses below could become undermined and tumble down the slope”. Some years ago Mornington Peninsula Shire built a boardwalk over a section of the eroded cliff, but has done little further up the track where the bitumen is cracked and broken. Yellow lines mark the edges of the deepest cracks, with arrows pointing to particularly deep ones. Liquid bitumen has been used to seal some cracks. Wire fences preventing access have been pushed aside, the warning signs ignored. Mornington Peninsula Shire officially closed the 100-year-old path in November 2013 to head off any legal claims resulting from the landslip, poor walking

surface and lack of adequate fencing. In December 2015 the shire announced a $200,000 repair package. Members of the Caraar Creek Coastal Cliff steering committee estimate repairs to the path from landslips caused by errant storm water and irrigation flows have cost ratepayers $400,000 over the past 13 years. The December meeting was told work on fixing the path would start in February and finish mid-2016. Committee member Kate Phillip says only minor maintenance has been done on the path: repair of a collapsed boardwalk post and filling the cracks in the asphalt with molten asphalt. “Both jobs had to be redone as the first attempt was unsupervised and un-

satisfactory. This is where all our money goes, gone are the days of doing the job properly the first time,” Ms Phillip said last week. To add insult to injury a “chainsaw crew” cut down three “substantial she oaks which have deep roots to anchor and stabilise the cliff”. Ms Phillip said the original plans, drawn up by an engineer no longer with the shire, had been “dumped”. If carried through, the result of the “questionable” plans would have been unlikely to have lasted 10 or 15 years. “At subsequent meetings of our committee with the shire, a peer review of this repair solution was agreed to, for which we are very grateful. This may give us a repair less likely to be another Band-Aid,” Ms Phillip said.

“It is now approaching three months since start of the peer review, [and] we have received no communication, no progress reports and some very dismissive ‘these things take time’ from the cliff path project manager. “We all know the shire’s initial intention was to close the path. Public pressure forced a change in that approach and for a while we thought their intention to improve the public asset was genuine.” The shire’s cheif operating officer Alison Leighton said on Friday that results of the peer review are due this week, with a contractor expected to start work in July. Ms Leighton said the works were expected to take three months to complete.

Sub would bring jobs and growth to Hastings In response to Keith Platt's article “Pledges flow in wake of sub's moorings mayday” (The News 31/5/16). I wish to point out that the total project will cost about $15 million, not $25m. We were well aware the “promised” $1 million was not for the mooring because at that time, the current mooring problem was not an issue. As to the reported “a list of things” [made by Hastings MP Neale Burgess], we would have liked to know what the list was. Just before the November 2014 Victorian state election, at the official opening of an election office in Hastings, several association members along with council employees were notified we had the grant. Standing in a group we were informed the funds were not subject to the election and “it was money in the bank”. I and others in that group concur that there was no mention of it being subject to any conditions or subject to an application. The project is designed to be built in stages. Today's cost to bring the submarine Otama into a contained dry berth ready for display is about $7m. Seed funding of around $2m is being sought from the state or federal governments. The Western Port Oberon Association's committee believes business funds would then flow to bring the total project - the Otama, the MV Wyuna and the existing Victorian Maritime Museum at Crib Point - to the proposed Hastings Marina site. Work has already begun to secure these investment monies. When completed it would provide 200 jobs and 1800 other jobs based on Mornington Peninsula Shire's economic modelling and some 70,000 visitors a year from the five million people that annually visit the peninsula. It would be a win/win situation for jobs and growth for Western Port and the town of Hastings, which is sorely needed and long overdue. Projections on income and visitor numbers indicate investors would recover their capital within seven to 10 years. Max Bryant, president Western Port Oberon Association Editor: As an example of what it wants for Hastings, the Western Port Oberon Association cites the $24m Western Australian Maritime Museum which opened in 2002.

Union ‘tricks’ I was appalled by the letter from Stan Hogan (“Union government Letterss 7/6/16) concerning future union expectations if Labor wins the federal election. This would place the government effectively under union control. At first I thought he was joking but, when you look at union activities in Australia, I think he was serious. Just look at the trouble the firefighters’ union is causing to the CFA apparently as a result of a sweetheart deal between [the Premier] Daniel Andrews and this union. Then there is the fact that 100 CFMEU members are facing criminal charges which will be dropped if Labor wins office. A former president of the ALP has been jailed for five years for stealing from the Health Services Union. Then there is the shady deal between Coles and the shopworkers’ union where illegal penalty rates were paid to non-unionised casual workers. And Labor claims it would defend penalty rates. These are only some of the tricks unions get up to which the ALP condones as long as union money rolls into the ALP. If this is happening under a Coalition government just think of the mayhem the unions would create under a Labor government. Leonie Withers, Frankston South

Save parade ground I am appalled at the demands and attitudes of both sides to the use of the public area parade ground at Mt Martha (“Heritage binds shire to skatepark site”, The News 14/6/16). The tennis club has never been satisfied with its footprint in an area that is entirely unsuited for the purpose. Its dissatisfaction of its natural home on Watson Rd has been palpable. One would have thought that playing tennis

requires the concentration on the court area, not on the superb bay views enjoyed by the parade ground. This area would be more gainfully used for family activities. The carol’s by candlelight concert held in this area every year is immensely popular and contributes to bringing the community together. Since the tennis club took over and expanded its activities, the noise and light pollution at night has detracted from the amenity of the area. The insistence of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to place a skatepark on any part of the Mt Martha House precinct is just plain wrong. Apart from the noise of the skaters and the clatter of their skateboards, the inherent antisocial behaviour and likely vandalism will severely impact on all residents and community activities. A much better solution is to relegate the tennis club to Watson Rd and place the skatepark in the old caravan park area besides Balcombe Estuary. The total area of the parade ground and adjacent area could then be used to create areas for all, as it is the only park on The Esplanade between Mornington and Dromana. As always, when elephants fight it is the ants that get hurt. Allan Caton, Mt Eliza

Political outlooks I was contemplating my navel the other day and I would like to share what I was thinking. I remembered how hard it was during the Menzies era to send a child to university if you couldn't afford it. How, as a struggling young family, you had to run up an account with your family doctor in order to keep your young family healthy. I remember that there were plenty of jobs though. Then we had Gough Whitlam who made it possible for working class kids to enter university and Labor under Whitlam introduced Medibank, a universal health system and he looked after the working class. Then we got Malcolm Fraser who tried his best to destroy Medibank and put the screws into the working class. Next came Hawke/Keating who gave us a revamped Medibank and called it Medicare and the working class, under Labor, got a better deal. Then Howard took the reins and started to tinker with Medicare, invaded a couple of countries along with the good ol' USA and released the xenophobic genie. He also introduced the GST, which hit the low income families. I then realised that it appears that conservative governments try to kill off Medicare, hit the workers with regressive taxes while looking after the top end of town and then Labor tries to fix it. So, how could anyone in their right mind think that a multi-millionaire such as Malcolm Turnbull would be able to empathise with low income families or the unemployed? His government is going to toy with Medicare, cut pensions and cut funding to education, the health system and not to mention the environment. Use your vote wisely. John Cain, McCrae

Successful burns I want to thank Mornington Peninsula’s residents and business owners for your co-operation during two planned burns at Arthurs Seat in autumn. The burns were successfully completed by staff from Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and Parks Victoria, with assistance of crews from the CFA and Mornington Peninsula Shire. Smoke from these burns was highly visible and some road closures were needed to ensure the safety of motorists and our firefighters – and we appreciate your understanding during those times. Completing these burns has reduced the bushfire risk at Arthurs Seat, which means that if a fire occurs, firefighters will have a better chance of controlling it before it impacts on you, your property and the environment. Our changing climate is bringing hotter and dryer conditions, increasing the bushfire risk. The wetter and colder winter moths may have just started, but summer will appear before we know it.

Peninsula communities do provide valuable input into our decision making about bushfire management. We thank those who’ve contributed and encourage more of you to get involved by talking with our forest fire management staff at your local DELWP or Parks Victoria office; or by phoning us on 9210 9222. From 1 July, we’ll be working with your communities, local CFA brigades and other partner agencies to roll out Safer Together, a new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire across the peninsula and improving the way we deliver planned burns. You can find information about Safer Together on the Department's website. Bryan Welch DELWP’s assistant chief fire officer - Port Phillip region

CFA support I write to express my whole hearted support for our local CFA volunteers. They do a brilliant job in protecting our lives and property. They give up their work, leisure and family time for our community’s safety. A union takeover of most aspects of their role would see a loss of the flexibility and expertise that they bring to every fire ground. CFA career firefighters deserve good pay and conditions, but the current EBA extends over many aspects of the volunteers’ roles and would change the nature of the CFA in a negative way forever. Martin Dixon, MP for Nepean

Scientific loss It is tragic that, of the 140 CSIRO climate scientists with vast years of experience, 100 are likely to be moved to other research. One wonders at the mentality of those ordering such policies when the cost of the scientists moved will be but a small fraction being provided for the less vital tasks. Despite the promises made in Paris, our prime minister has made it clear that climate science comes second to business. Mining and extraction industries take preference in Australia because it is easy to earn foreign exchange with little effort. Renewable energy technology can also earn foreign money and is doing so in China, as one example. The Arctic demonstrates that when climate change strikes, it happens rapidly. Peter Strickland, Balnarring

Disgraceful seating Maybe Frankston Council’s CEO [Dennis Hovenden] could explain to the homeless and customers of the closed City Life cafe how they could spend $359,470 on street furniture? Each one of these seats [in Wells St] cost$13,830. Is this disgraceful or not? I think it is. John Burnell, Frankston

Alternate ways

Alan Reid is misleading Flinders electors by suggesting Greg Hunt and the “Turnbott” government don’t need to be severely reprimanded for their stance on alternate energy production and the threat of global warming from our continued use of the most polluting form of electricity generation on earth (“Don’t blame Hunt”, Letters 7/6/16). The mindless fascination with approving more coalmines and digging up coal to ship overseas to be burnt for energy is mind numbingly stupid. Just because we don’t burn this stuff here does not excuse us for the damage this does world wide. If all the carbon pollution Australia is responsible for, by shipping coal around the world, would be credited to our own carbon footprint, we should hang our heads in shame. The furphy about renewable energy not being a viable proposition is completely dishonest. There are now thermal solar power generation systems that can produce power around the clock. The cost argument is also an attempt to obscure the fact that coal burning power stations never have to account for the health and climate impacts for which they are responsible. All the jobs Australia has lost as a consequence of not taking up the challenge to move to alternate energy production will haunt this LNP government into the future. To me, it seems that present governments, Labor or LNP, are so beholden to the vested interests of the extraction and old energy producing industries, that I fear only a very hard kick in the pants by voters will concentrate their minds on these issues. Maybe then we get a more rational

debate about these issues. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Broken tax dream As a United States ex-pat I got quite excited to see that the government was going to contribute billions of dollars to the US by reducing the corporate mafia tax rate. It would have been a financial bonanza and the word was that he US was going to use it to increase pensioner benefits (of which I am a recipient). Then my brain un-froze from the propaganda of it all and I realised that many of these corporate mafia entities do not pay taxes in the first place because they can legally launder their profits to low tax havens through government sanctioned tax loopholes that the government refuses to address. So I am now despondent and pleading with the government to close these loopholes so that the US can benefit from the corporate tax reductions. The positive thing about it all as it now stands, I guess, is that the reduction will make no difference in tax revenues to Australia being as 50 per cent of zero is the same as 30 per cent of zero. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Limited choice So, voting time again. But what a choice. If I remember correctly the last time we had to vote [in the Flinders electorate] we had some 12 or 13 candidates. Of these I had only heard of one. This was the only one who bothered to send any information about what he represented or stood for. Unfortunately, he was the only one I didn't want to hear from - the ubiquitous Greg Hunt – whop I regard as our very own environmental disaster. I don't doubt Mr Hunt will retain his seat. The good people of Flinders will vote for him simply for the Liberal label he carries. But people have short memories. Don't forget Mr Hunt's legacy: reef dredging; logging of world heritage old growth forest; carbon tax repeal; coal mine approval; marine reserves review by fishing industry; shark culls in WA; scrapping of solar rebates and grants; scrapping of mining tax; and, last but not least, the appalling condition of the Great Barrier Reef. Not a list to be proud of by any stretch of anyone's imagination. John Shorter, McCrae

Working dogs Interaction with our four-legged friends can have a hugely positive influence on our health and wellbeing. Pet therapy is now common in hospitals and comfort dogs are often sent to help people grieving after major tragedies, as occurred recently with the Orlando nightclub massacre. That’s why VicHealth is getting behind International Bring Your Dog to Work Day (24 June) and why every Friday, dogs of all shapes and sizes are on duty in our office providing support, entertainment and cuddles to our employees. As a proud dog owner myself, it’s my favourite day of the week. Studies have shown employees who bring their dogs to work experience lower stress levels, higher job satisfaction and increased productivity. People move around more, get some physical activity in by walking their dogs at lunchtime and there’s increased social interaction between staff members who might not normally talk to each other. It didn’t happen overnight, but initiating our dog policy has had countless benefits going both ways and we urge other employers to do the same and seriously look into making more workplaces dog-friendly. Friday’s international Bring Your Dog to Work Day is a great way to see firsthand the benefits of having four-legged friends in the office. So dust off the leash, break out your pooch’s cutest doggie coat and get ready for a fun, healthy and productive day in the office this Friday 24 June. Jerril Rechter, CEO VicHealth

So m e rville Caravan servicing Welcome to

UTOW Caravans has been so busy over the last few months servicing caravans for their customers, they decided to put into words the issue how important caravan servicing really is, as Geoff McLean from Utow explains. “Caravan wheel bearings, brakes and suspension components are under a lot of load. Also unlike your car, it is difficult to hear a strange noise coming from the working parts of a caravan. For this reason just maybe the first you will know of a problem will be a complete mechanical failure. This may also result in the ruining of your holiday or big trip,” said Geoff. “Over the last few months I have been staggered by the amount of unknown (to the owner) serious problems I have found in caravans whilst they have been serviced. Much too common has been one side brakes not working at all or on a tandem just one of the brakes not working. Caravans have two wires to each brake. A broken wire or a faulty part in the electrical mechanism will result in no brakes. All it takes is to run over something small which collects with the wires. As I said, this has been a common problem.” Geoff explains that he has serviced a few caravans which on the owners’ admission have not been serviced for years. “Lucky they had it done this time; a 1000 kilometre trip would have had them on the side of the road with a failed bearing. On each service the bearings and seals should be removed and completely washed out of old grease. Then the bearing surfaces can be inspected for faults, then

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Wounded soldiers enjoy Frankston Compiled by Melissa Walsh WOUNDED Soldiers at Frankston. Frankston has spoilt its reputation for being slow and whosoever may have been under that impression will no longer think so when they consider the big undertaking and successful carrying out of last Wednesday’s programme. Word was received on Monday by the Red Cross Society that a trip had been arranged to Frankston for nearly 200 wounded soldiers, who had to wait four days in Melbourne for their boat before they could proceed to their homes in Queensland and New South Wales, and the society lost no time in making all necessary arrangements to provide the best entertainment possible for our fighters and heroes every one. Mt Eliza Red Cross Society, the “Wattles” Club, and each individual sprang into action and worked unitedly, with one object in view, to give the soldiers a good time while the opportunity lasted. Money, refreshments, and cigarettes poured in from every direction. The day was fine but very cold and the men, who were welcomed by the President and Committee of the Red Cross Society, showed their appreciation of the hot tea, coffee and refreshments which were provided under such pleasant circumstances. The hall had been gaily decorated by a bevy of young people and the Langwarrin Band enlivened the proceedings by playing selections. The

band which accompanied the soldiers also played after refreshments had been partaken of. The return journey was commenced at about 5.15, each heart filled with gratitude and all available pocket space filled with fruit etc. The opportunity was taken to hold a short dance which was thoroughly enjoyed by lovers of the light fantastic, the Langwarrin band providing the music for most of the dancers. Misses Williams and Hartland also assisted. A hearty vote of thanks was moved by Mr Hartland and seconded by Mr Hunt, to the Langwarrin Band for their splendid services during the afternoon and evening. *** WORD was received by Mrs C Bunny on Wednesday morning that her husband, Lance Corporal Bunny, 5th Battalion, has been reported wounded, though it does not state whether seriously or otherwise. Further news will be anxiously looked for. *** FURTHER word has been received by his parents that Private E. F. Reynolds is in Harefield Park Hospital, London, and that his condition is stationary. He is suffering from gunshot wound in the back and an operation will be necessary. *** AN unfortunate accident happened to Mr W. G. Baxter, on Tuesday afternoon, while employed shoeing a young horse at Mr H. Cameron’s smithy. It appears that they had the

animal in the yard, tied up, and it suddenly lunged out and caught Baxter on the leg, causing a bad fracture. The injured man was at once conveyed to the Melbourne Hospital, where he is progressing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. *** THE following letter has been received by Miss Eleanor Chrisp, secretary, Red Cross Society Mt Eliza, from Lieut. J. Green A.A. M.C., Quartermaster, No.5 Aust. Gen. Hospital— “ On behalf of the patients of this hospital I beg to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of your donation 3½ cases apples, 2 boxes pastry and cakes. Your kindness is very greatly appreciated and I can assure you that every care will be taken to see that your gift if put to the possible use. *** MR John Grice, of Hawksburn, has just received word that his son, Captain Thomas Gerald Grice, has been killed in France. Captain Grice, who was just 32 years of age, was educated partly at Geelong Grammar School and partly at Clifton College, England. In 1902 be joined the 60th Rifles, but retired from the army in 1908 and settled down at Invernell, NSW, where in 1911 he married Miss Clarice Joyce Hewlett, of Waverley, Sydney. After war broke out he proceeded to England and obtained a commission in the 2nd Scottish Rifles. This is the regiment to which had belonged his

brother, George, who as a lieutenant was killed on Christmas Day, 1901, at Tweefontein, South Africa. *** THE social held by the “Wattles” Club, on Saturday night, was a thorough success. Dancing commenced at 8 o’clock and was heartily indulged in till 11.30, which time, judging from appearances and expressions, came all too soon. However, realising that all good things must come to an end and with the assurance that another social evening would be held shortly, home sweet home was sought, with lingering memories of a most enjoyable evening having been spent. The music, which was supplied gratis, by a party from Melbourne. Miss Strettle, (piano); Mr H. Cook, (violin); and Mr Les. Shugg, (clarinet), was all that could he desired and was appreciated by the Club as well as the dancers. Our popular local entertainer, Master Keith Tait, contributed a song in his usual good style, and Miss Powell sang, “Wonderful Rose of Love” with good effect. A light supper was provided for the artists by a few of the members. The sum to be handed over to the soldiers’ Recreation Hall fund, at Langwarrin will be published next week as all money is not yet in hand. *** FRANKSTON Court of Petty Sessions Monay 19 June, 1916.(Before Messrs C. V. G: Williams, Wl. J. Oates. and C. W. Grant, J’s P.) Stealing Drapery: John Patrick

Casey, a goods guard, employed on the Victorian Railways was charged with feloniously stealing a quantity of drapery from the railways on 28th of last April. Mr Borsum prosecuted on behalf of the Department, and Mr Jones appeared on behalf of the accused. J. Coutes, stationmaster, at Somerville, deposed: “I was on duty on 28th April. Assisted to load 14 tins and 2 hampers of samples on account of Mr Bamfield, traveller for Robert Reid and Co., of Finders Street, Melbourne. They appeared to be intact, and in good condition. Made out a way bill and sent it alone with the goods.” S. V. Waider deposed: “Am a laborer, employed by the Railway Department. Was on duty on the morning of 29th April. Tallied the contents of the truck No. 8651. Tallied out goods on way bill produced. I found 4 tins with the straps cut and brown paper sticking out of the edges of the tins. I reported same at the time, and entered same in discrepancy book. Produced the book showing the discrepancy mentioned.” When asked how he would plead the accused on the advice of his lawyer did not answer and he was committed for trial in Melbourne on the 3rd July next, bail being set at 50 pounds. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 24 June, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Craig David: biscuit prophet, snack food Soothsayer By Stuart McCullough IT’S about trust, I think. When you strip away the artifice of marketing and the mercurial nature of personal preference, all that’s left is the sacred bond between man and biscuit. But it’s a fragile thing; capable of being spooked and irretrievably harmed at any point. Trust is a nerve ending, a phantom limb. It should never, under any circumstances, be taken for granted. Lo betide those who treat it with disrespect or malice. For whilst you can do almost anything in this big old world, what you cannot do (under any circumstance) is ruin one of this country’s most beloved biscuits. I speak, of course, of Arnott’s Barbecue Shapes. It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to dare disturb perfection. For as long as I can recall, Arnott’s Barbecue Shapes have been part of my life. My father would arrive home from work and prepare a plate consisting of Shapes, cheese and slices of kabana. In a better world, Masterchef would devote a week to this dish. During my student years, Barbecue Shapes were my go-to snack of choice. Later, it was not uncommon for me to consume a box of these red-speckled miracles on a Friday night and consider it dinner. Thick or thin, for better for worse, in sickness and in health: Arnott’s Barbecue Shapes have been a constant. If not by my side, then at least somewhere up the back of the pantry. All that is over now. Without so much as a whiff of consultation, they have changed the recipe. And by ‘changed’ I mean ‘completely and utterly ruined’. What possessed them? Logic tells me that, if not Satan, then certainly one of his scaly-skinned,

PAGE 46

cloven-footed harbingers of evil. Or someone in marketing. Either way, it’s terrifying. We cannot stand idly by whilst either the dark overlord perched

Western Port News 21 June 2016

atop his skull throne or, alternatively, a campaign manager named ‘Tarquin’ wantonly alters biscuit recipes as part of a scheme to unpick the stitches of

goodwill that otherwise hold all of humanity together. We must rise up and overthrow the tyranny of substandard snack foods. I had no warning that so seismic a shift was in the offing. As a result, I was denied the opportunity to stockpile supplies to see out the current drift towards insanity. Worse still is the fact that I’d only just finished the last of the Barbecue Shapes I’d hoarded before New Year’s Day, 2000, in the off chance that civilization as we knew it might come to an end. (Incidentally, people mocked me for thinking the world was on the verge of collapsing, but that was in the pre-Kardashian era. History, I think, was vindicated me somewhat.) As a result, I have nothing except my memories of a biscuit so great, mysterious and wonderful that I genuinely fear that we will never see its like again. When I entered the supermarket, I had no inkling of the horror that was to come. Strolling down the coffee / tea / biscuit aisle with my basket, I spied a large display of Barbecue Shapes at a heavily discounted price. At that moment I thought that, if not all my Christmases, then the one in 1986 when my parents gave me a ghetto blaster, had come at once. In a state of blissful ignorance I loaded up the basket firmly believing that I would be dining out on nothing but Barbecue Shapes for the foreseeable future. Little did I know. The packet promised a ‘bigger’ flavour. They succeeded. But it’s hard to think of so stark an example where bigger is absolutely not better. From the moment the first one catapulted my lips to land on my tongue, it un-

leashed an assault on the senses. And by ‘assault’ I mean rusty lead pipes and bicycle chains in a soiled alleyway rather than, say, unicorns and fireworks. These were not flavours so much as a form of chemical warfare. It was as if someone had decided to make Barbecue Shapes taste more like an actual Barbecue. Probably the one at your local park that some inconsiderate sod used three weeks ago and left without giving the hotplate a clean. Why Arnotts? Why? It makes sense to me now. This is not a bolt from the blue. It is, instead, the fulfillment of a prophecy. I speak, of course, of Craig David. An English R and B singer with overly precise facial hair and a passion for pristine sneakers, his 2002 single ‘What’s Your Flava?’ seemed little more than a mediocre pop confection that tried too hard to be funky, succeeding instead in having all the groove of a box of spanners. But now I realize he was trying to tell me something. In posing the question, ‘What’s Your Flava?’, Craig David prophesized the Great Barbecue Shape Shemozzle of 2016. Why didn’t I listen? Apparently, having been bombarded by angry customers, many of whose taste buds will never be the same again, the company has returned the ‘original’ flavour to stores. This is so much more that a corporate error of judgment. It’s the kind of event that should see a welfare agency swoop in and confiscate the recipe, lest it should come to any further harm. I suppose I’ll get over it. In the end, I may be furious at Arnotts, but I can’t stay angry with Barbecue Shapes. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Stonecats are unbeatable PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW will not be beaten in 2016, according to two MPNFL Peninsula Division coaches. And worst still for the competition, the coaches believe that nothing will change in 2017 and beyond under the current MPNFL Player Points System (PPS). Guests on the RPP Footy Show on Saturday morning, Mornington coach Chris Holcombe and Seaford coach Ben Murphy were both steadfast when asked the question “can anyone beat Frankston YCW this season”. Without hesitation, both Holcombe and Murphy said “no”. Holcombe said that the Stonecats were a long way in front of any other team in the competition, not only this season, but for seasons to come. Mornington has played in the past two grand finals against the Stonecats, failing in 2014 by a whisker and being humiliated last season. Later that afternoon after making the statements, Holcombe’s Mornington was belted by 112 points by the Stonecats after trailing by just 10 points at quarter time.

Holcombe said the only way that the Stonecats were going to come back to the pack was a lack of money or players leaving the club. “Right now, if YCW keep paying what they’re paying and keep their list together, which they do every year, then it’s going to be a long time before anyone can catch up,” Holcombe said. “I don’t want Frankston YCW to take that as a knock – they are a sensationally run football club and absolutely deserve to be where they are. They are the envy of all us. “They have a strong core group and have the ability to pick up one or two each year to top them up again. “Unless the bottom falls out of them, it’s going to be some time before things change and they don’t dominate the competition,” Holcombe said. Murphy said the PPS didn’t allow teams to catch up. “To get close to Frankston YCW you have to recruit a lot of players – the system doesn’t allow you to do that,” Murphy said. “So we have little choice but to take our time, rebuild and recruit what we can over time. It’s going to take a fair amount of time to get to YCW’s level.

“There’s no use going out and spending a load of money unless you think it’s going to beat YCW, so it’s about bridging the gap locally as best you can first. “Like Holcs said, full credit to YCW for being where they are but things aren’t going to change any time soon,” Murphy said. Frankston YCW won its 23rd consecutive match on Saturday against Mornington. By season’s end, it will be 35. Paul Minchington, Anthony Bruhn and Kyle Hutchison all booted four goals each for the Stonecats, as did 18-year-old Josh Butland. Michael Williams booted a goal in his return game for the Dogs after leaving Pearcedale, while Nick Martin and Ash Williams worked tirelessly. Holcombe said 2016 was about resetting the culture at his club and getting games into the youngsters. “We’re a very different football club this year than previous seasons and it’s about giving opportunity,” Holcombe said. Seaford kept its finals hope well and truly alive with a massive 23.17 (155) to 6.7 (43) win against Chelsea.

The Tigers are just two points outside of fifth spot after Kyle Matthews and Joe Hallal booted four goals each and Matt Herbert and Brad Doyle dominated. The Gulls led by a point at half time before Seaford booted 16.9 to 2.1 after the main break. Bonbeach bounced back from a slow start to record an eight point win against Karingal. The Bulls jumped out of the blocks and led by three goals at the first break before Bonbeach hit the front at half time with a four goal to one second quarter. It was toe-to-toe in the last hour with Bonbeach recording a 9.14 (68) to 9.6 (60) victory. Jackson Bennett, Jacob Flannery and Shane McDonald were superb for the Sharks while Luke Damon booted three goals. Leigh Poholke booted five majors for the Bulls while Duncan Proud was again outstanding across half back. Inaccuracy cost Langwarrin a win against Pines on Saturday. The Kangas dominated the second quarter but couldn’t find the big sticks, booting 2.5 to one goal for the term.

Again in the third, Pines kicked 5.1 to Langwarrin’s 1.6. The Kangas booted two goals to two behinds in the last to go down 6.12 (48) to 8.5 (53). Pines’ Adam Marriner, Shane Waterstone and Aaron Edwards with three goals were the difference between the sides. Brian Peach, teenager Zack Andreawartha in his debut game and Nick Tuddenham were the best of the Kangas. Mt Eliza had little trouble disposing of Edithvale, who dropped to fifth place on the ladder. The Redlegs opened with a five goal to one first quarter and extended its lead at every change, winning 14.12 (96) to 6.9 (45). Justin Van Unen booted seven goals to give him 13 goals in two weeks since playing on the wing against YCW. Nathan Ryan was outstanding for the Redlegs with a couple of goals while Sam Gill controlled things in the back half. Tommy Turner and Brendan Neville were among the best for the Eagles while Nick Carlon also worked tirelessly.

Bombers are genuine contenders NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt FRANKSTON Bombers are absolute genuine contenders for the 2016 Nepean League premiership after comfortably disposing of Rosebud at Greg Beck Oval on Saturday. “Going hard enough for long enough” was the theme of the game for the Bombers after yours truly questioned whether they had the mental toughness to play out 100 minutes of football. The Bombers answered that question in spades. Rosebud tried on a number of occasions to unsettle the Bombers, however the home team stuck to the task at hand and extended their lead at every change. What was more impressive for Frankston Bombers was that they recorded their 9.10 (64) to 4.7 (31) win on the back of quiet performances by Sam Fox and Dale Sutton. While Rosebud’s Seb Kremich and Jack Jarman did outstanding jobs on the Bombers’ guns, the likes of Brett Sutton, Jason Kingsbury, Josh Francis and Alan Williams got to work for the winners. Greg Bentley was clearly Rosebud’s best player, while Nick Boswell, while he didn’t dominate like he can, was still in their best two players. The forward half of Rosebud was thrashed. Keegan Downie, Ben Shultz and coach Michael Kraska didn’t get near it all day. Frankston’s defence was sublime, again. Ryan Marks-Logan was the best player on the ground, Jarryd Amalfi

Tigers maul: Dromana accounted for Somerville by more than six goals. Picture: Andrew Hurst

dominated, as did Beau Muston, and Jay Page and Zac White comfortably won their positions. Amalfi, Marks-Logan and Muston constantly ran off their opponents and set up forward thrusts through the middle of the ground. Corey Micari was outstanding yet again for the Bombers and had the honours over premiership ruckman Ben Dwyer. Micari’s development over the past two weeks has been significant. Frankston’s performance was superb, no question, however we’ve still got to keep things in perspective – it was the Bombers’ first win over a top five side. It is a very different side to the one that lost to Hastings and Somerville and will only get stronger this weekend against Sorrento at Sorrento. Ruckman Ryan Kitchen will come

back into the side, while they have recruited former St Paul’s key forward Luke James, described as “a bull” who has booted 400 goals in his past five seasons. He was ranked by pundits as the number one player in Southern League in 2013. Sorrento has lost its past two games after being beaten by Devon Meadows at David McFarlane Reserve. The Meadows opened up a five point lead at quarter time and extended their margin at every change, before Sorrento charged home in the final term to go down 13.12 (90) to 12.16 (88). Devon Meadows set up the win through stars Steve Roberts, Jack Hazendonk, Jesse Dehey and Chris Doria. Kyle Salerno booted three goals, as did coach Glenn Michie, while Hazendonk also hit the scoreboard with three

majors. Sorrento pulled a shock selection at the table on Thursday night, bringingin Tom Langford, who is on Richmond’s VFL list and is part of the famous Langford family. It was out of character for coach Nick Jewell to rush any player into his team and from all reports, the inclusion of Langford was frowned upon by some who had been in good form in the reserves. The move backfired. The Sharks have the toughest draw of all sides in the final six weeks with matches against Frankston, Somerville, Dromana, Hastings, Rosebud and Red Hill. Nick Corp was outstanding for the Sharks with six goals. Myles Pitt, who the Sharks were hoping to get back for the second half of the season, has reportedly reinjured his back and will miss the remainder of the season. Red Hill grabbed fifth place on the ladder at the expense of Rosebud after thrashing Pearcedale 17.11 (113) to 6.8 (44). In a week where forward Jackson Dalton walked out on the club, Harry Larwill booted seven majors for the Hillmen while Jake Mold and Steve Marchetti dominated through the middle of the ground. In further good news for the Hillmen, Jarred Eames dominated in the reserves and looks in great shape, while Sean Holmes and Ben Macguiness were also in the twos. Troy Jacobson and Alex Harnett were the best of the Panthers. Crib Point gave Rye an almighty

scare on Saturday, going down in a thriller 13.6 (84) to 11.20 (86). The Magpies led by two points at quarter time, three at half time and seven at the last change, before Rye booted 2.9 to two goals in the last quarter. Ryan Mullett and Kris Bardon were again outstanding for the Demons while Ryan Taylor and Jimmy Jennings were superb down back. Dromana maintained its tag as the giant killers after thrashing Somerville by more than six goals. The Tigers dominated with teenager Ethan Johnstone kicking five goals and Rikki Johnstone and Beau Cosson three each. Down back Christian Ongarello and Dean Waugh were superb. Somerville is in a world of pain right now. The word on the street is that it’s not a happy place. The Eagles are also looking for some off field assistance. Saturday’s performance wouldn’t have helped that cause. Right now, the Eagles have no chance of holding up the silverware. With Frankston, Hastings has been able to grab a one game buffer on Somerville, Sorrento and Red Hill after a big 25.18 (168) to 4.5 (29) win over Tyabb. Col McVeigh was the best player on the ground with seven goals, while Dale Alanis and Luke Hewitt booted six goals each. Luke Clark and Josh Mulheron were also back in the side, giving the Blues arguably their best side on paper for the season. Chris Harris and Sean Miller were the best of the Yabbies.

Rosebud Heart hits top spot, Mornington mauled SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie IT’S official. Rosebud Heart now sits proudly on top of State 5 South and is hot favourite to take out its first ever championship in just its second year of competition. For the past few weeks Scott Morrison’s men have been the only side in the league with a perfect record but playing less games than arch rival Baxter forced Heart to wait before claiming top-dog status. Saturday’s 3-1 away win over Chelsea did the trick (as Baxter had a bye) with master predator Dave Greening scoring twice and setting up Luca Biancardi in the 87th minute for a first-time volley that settled the issue. It was 0-0 at half-time but when Greening was hauled down by Connor Lewis in the 55th minute he recovered and converted the resulting penalty. Lewis was sent off after receiving a second yellow card in the incident. Greening then broke clear in the 60th minute, dummied the Chelsea keeper then smashed the ball inside the near post to make it 2-0. Chelsea’s sole reply came from the spot in the 70th minute and was converted by Dejan Dimitrovici after veteran Heart midfielder Adam Poole was judged to have infringed inside the area. Clifton Hill put State 1 South-East pacesetter Mornington to the sword with a stunning 6-1 home win on Saturday. Mornington lost goalkeeper Kris McEvoy (dislocated shoulder) and central defender Steve Elliot (calf) during the warm-up pitching young custodian Dylan Tervit into the breach. Clifton Hill import Chris Davies opened the scoring in the 12th minute but two minutes later Chris Reid tapped in from a Sammy Stewart cutback to make it 1-1. Davies grabbed a second in the 30th minute but four minutes after the break Tervit brought down an opponent and Davies notched his hat-trick from the penalty spot. Davies got his fourth in the 60th minute and goals from Michael Catalano (80th) and Daniel Thomas (89th) rounded off the rout. Frankston Pines slumped to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Langwarrin in Saturday’s State 1 South-East derby at Monterey Reserve. The home team featured former Langy stalwart Ben Caffrey but the visiting outfit hit the front in the 33rd minute when captain and central

Caulfield Park on Sunday. Paul McGuire was back in the Seaford side having returned from Sandringham and scored from the penalty spot in the 30th minute after Dylan Waugh had been brought down. Aaron Cohen of North Caulfield received a second caution and was sent off shortly after and another Sandy recruit, Nick Ormond, lobbed the ball home from distance to make it 2-0 in the 37th minute. Caulfield hit back through prolific scorer Oran Harel just before halftime to make it 2-1. A second goal from Ormond restored the two-goal cushion in the second half but Harel made it 3-2 from the penalty spot. After a long stoppage due to a head clash, the 10 men of Caulfield were pushing hard when a long ball into the six-yard box saw a Seaford defender get the final touch for an own goal to complete the scoreline. It was a return to form for Skye United on Saturday as Billy Armour’s side defeated Bayside Argonauts 4-1 at Skye Recreation Reserve. Nick Theodore tapped in his side’s first on seven minutes before doubling the lead soon after as his strike defected off the post into the Argonauts’ keeper before finding the net. Bayside’s Neal Byrne then pulled one back before the break as Skye United’s defence was opened up on the counter. However Skye’s talismanic striker Daniel Attard made it 3-1 on the hour mark, converting Alex Roberts’ cross. Skipper Mark O’Connor then completed the scoreline five minutes later, the Irishman curling in a quick free kick, catching Bayside’s defence off-guard. The result ensures Skye remains top of State 4 South. NEXT WEEKEND’S GAMES Friday, 24 June, 8.30pm: Doncaster Rovers v Peninsula Strikers (Anderson Park).

defensive powerhouse Alex Van Heerwarden could barely believe his luck after going forward to contest a set piece and ending up unmarked at the back post for a simple tap-in. A well-timed Stefan Soler volley in the 37th minute was parried by Langy keeper Robbie Acs and two minutes later a stunning free kick on the right by Caleb Nicholes saw the ball nestle in the top far corner to make it 2-0. The game was put out of Pines’ reach in the 65th minute when Nick Lekakis failed to head clear and Koray Suat rounded advancing Pines keeper James Laminski then struck the ball into the unguarded goal. A second yellow card for Pines left

back Luke Murray in the 72nd minute ended his involvement and Nicholes completed the scoreline in the 83rd minute with a point blank strike at the near post following a surging run into the area and cutback by former Pines star Grant Lane. Peninsula Strikers returned to winning ways in State 2 South-East with a resounding 4-1 home win over visitor Heatherton United on Saturday. Matt Morris-Thomas opened the scoring with a superb solo effort in the 20th minute jinking past three opponents before sending an unstoppable strike into the top far corner.

Hastings too strong for the Yabbies HASTINGS FNC

third win in a row.

SATURDAY saw Hastings take on Western Port rivals Tyabb. The clubs played off for the George Slocombe Jnr Shield; George was recently inducted into the very prestigious Hastings Hall of Fame. Our club was very much ready for a fierce contest. Hastings FNC seem switched on from the opening bounce. After coming off an unexpected loss the previous week, the boys played a terrific brand of football which was a treat for our members and supporters to witness. This week sees the club travel to Pearcedale in another very important clash in our journey in 2016.

Reserves Report On Saturday we came up against our rivals from down the road in pretty wet conditions. Although Tyabb have struggled in the past they have shown vast improvement this year and we knew we would have a contest on our hands. After a great start we fell away in the second half and let a team with a real desire to break their drought reel us in to force a draw. Hopefully after a strong week on the track we will be able to put a four quarter performance together next week.

Seniors Report THE boys had a great day after coming off a loss.It was a great team effort. We played a very structured team brand of football. Our foot skills were the best they’ve been all year which allowed us to score heavily. The challenge now is to keep that form going for the rest of the season. It was good to get back Josh Mullheron, Mark Devereaux and Luke Clark after long-term injuries. Also great to see the 19’s have their

Under 19s Report TYABB came to play us on our home turf on Saturday which was always going to be a close contest. The boys still feeling confident after two wins in a row had it all before them to make it three on the trot. The game started slowly in slippery conditions with Tyabb having several shots on goal in the first without capitalising. Our back six once again did the job for us, clearing the ball time and again. Pat Langdale contined to show his

skill across half back. Aaron King in the ruck and Peter Megee worked the ball out of the centre with some great clearances while Sean Hewitt, returning from injury, was in everything and didn’t stop all day. Jack Winton and Andy Jeffs continue to be contested ball animals putting in two, three even four repeated efforts in winning and clearing the ball for us down forward. Kaylen Jansen created some great run while his marking has improved massively this season. Michael Tanner was also a welcome return and showed some of the hardness that he has had all through juniors. The impressive thing this week was that we had the lead at every change and withheld Tyabb’s late charge by sticking to our structures and playing our game. This makes three wins in a row for the boys with a very winnable game this week at Pearcedale. Great job guys. I would just like to thank Mick Hooper for the great support he gives us as our team manager. Thanks Hoops. Best on ground: Pat Langdale, Andy Jeffs, Sean Hewitt, Jack Win-

ton, Aaron King. Netball Report THIS week we faced the Tyabb at home. We knew it was going to be challenging day coming up against the Yabbies. It was a difficult day for us, coming up against two well-drilled sides. For our C Grade girls it was tough to find goals, however we saw Jess Reid have her strongest performance for the year, well supported by Siobhan Pretty’s consistent form in the centre. In the second quarter we were presented with a spectacular fall by Riannon Smallcombe, who we hope isn’t feeling too sore, but we tip our hats to her for running out the remainder of the match. Goaling accuracy continues to be a problem for the girls but is something we’re working to correct for the remainder of the season. As for our B Grade girls, it was a testing day for our girls, revealing how we’re travelling as a team. As one of our toughest games for the year, we saw the mentality and spirit among the team challenged. However our defensive end played a strong game against the very skilled B grade Yabbies. We do continue to

struggle to move the ball out of the defensive end into offence. While we did face a range of challenges, we need to stick together and stay positive. A special thank you goes out to Chelsie Hollingworth for lending us Amy for such a tough game. We really appreciated having her play with us this week and would congratulate you personally on the massive four goals and your team on having such a successful season. *** Upcoming Functions: Ladies Luncheon: Home Game v Red Hill. $50 Single. 8th July, 2016 at 1.00 pm onwards.
