Kittens an oarsome second PT LEO surf lifesavers have proved their surf skills by winning water and beach events at this year’s Victorian Masters Championships at Lorne.

The team was among many competitors from the Mornington Peninsula representing the Mount Martha, Portsea and Pt Leo clubs.

In the gruelling, and spectacular, 180+ years female Kittens surf boat race sweep Anthony Davis and rowers Tarena Murray, Gemma McDonald, Lucy Kryiacou and substitute Emily Mansfield (from the Port Campbell club), steered their way into second place behind Port Campbell and ahead of Williamstown.

Shire’s ‘all aboard’ for electric train Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council has agreed to lobby for electric trains to run between Frankston and Langwarrin as the first stage of a service to Hastings.

The estimated $650m to $850m cost for six kilometres of double track would include parking for thousands of cars, allowing peninsula residents to park and catch a metro train to

Frankston and beyond.

At its second last meeting for 2021 (7 December) the shire’s councillors voted unanimously to lobby for a twostaged approach to having an electric train service to Hastings.

Cr Paul Mercurio (endorsed Labor Party candidate for Hastings at the November state election) successfully moved that the shire “endorse an advocacy campaign” for an electrified double rail track from Frankston to Langwarrin, while still seeking state and federal money to extend the elec-

tric service to Hastings.

Cr Steve Holland, who seconded the move, said: “As far as I can tell, the only thing holding up this project is the state Labor government, all other state and federal parties are committed to the rail extension. So, any advocacy campaign is likely to centre around the state Labor candidates on the peninsula."

At the same time as it presses for the Langwarrin development, the shire also wants the state government to improve the diesel rail service to Stony Point, with trains running every 20

minutes during peak times and 40 minutes “all day”.

Councillors also want “immediate improvements” to public transport in the Hastings area.

If it does get the green light from governments, the Langwarrin station car park and possible bus terminus would be on former Telstra-owned land in McClelland Drive, close to Peninsula Link.

In the lead-up to the shire’s changed position on primarily wanting the electric train service to Hastings, council-

lors were briefed by Ginevra Hosking, CEO of the lobby group Committee for Greater Frankston.

In a media release, Ms Hosking said shire councillors had unanimously supported extending the line because “they know it will form the backbone of our region’s future transportation network”.

“Electrifying the track to Langwarrin is an immediately achievable first step as there is already $225 million of Commonwealth government funds guaranteed in the federal Budget.”

ELECTIONS 2022

Liberal support for ‘save pier’ campaign Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au FLINDERS MP Greg Hunt has waded into the debate over saving an historic wooden section of Flinders pier.

Mr Hunt says it is “essential that any historical and environmental impacts are meticulously considered” by the state government which has earmarked a 180 metre section of the pier for demolition.

Nepean MP Chris Brayne said the pier issue would be open to “a 60 day community consultation in the near future”.

“When this opens, I’ll be advising the whole Flinders community to submit their views on the pier,” he said.

Charles Reis, of Flinders Community Association, says the pier fell into disrepair because Parks Victoria “failed to undertake proper maintenance as it should. [It] failed to detect a leaking galvanised pipe that caused one of the piles to collapse and the pier to be closed” (“Pier ‘fact sheet’ taken” The News 26/10/21).

Mr Hunt, who is not standing at the federal election expected in May, last week said that the Liberal candidate for his seat shared his support of the campaign to save Flinders pier.

“Perhaps even more importantly, my successor as the Liberal candidate for Flinders, Zoe McKenzie, is incredibly passionate about saving Flinders pier,” he said.

“I have made representations to the [state] Minister for Ports and Freight, Melissa Horne to make her aware

LIBERAL Party candidate for Flinders, Zoe McKenzie, above, who, according to Flinders MP Greg Hunt, shares his support of the campaign to “save Flinders pier”.

Scavenging support: The annual McCrae Seaside Scavenge provided an opportunity for Flinders Community Association to continue its campaign to save a section of Flinders pier from demolition and a chance for the association’s Charles Reis (right) to speak about the issue with (from left) the mayor Anthony Marsh, Cr Debra Mar, Mary Iles and Cr Kerri McCafferty. Pictures: Supplied of the concerns held by many in our community.”

The new State Liberal Member for Eastern Victoria, Cathrine BurnettWake has also weighed into the save Flinders pier issue by visiting the pier and in a Facebook post.

"Flinders Pier holds a special place in the hearts of its local community,” Ms Burnett-Wake said.

"I strongly support the conservation of our important heritage sites and marine ecosystems to ensure future

generations can enjoy them as much as we have.”

Flinders Community Association says plans to demolish the old wooden section of the pier were first revealed in leaked documents. The association has since applied for the pier to be heritage listed.

A heritage review by Heritage Victoria is expected to be completed

by June.

“The pier attracts nearly 500,000 visitors per year and contributes

$8million to $10million to communities across the Mornington Peninsula,” Mr Reis said.

"We have a small museum at the pier, run by volunteers, which celebrates the pier’s unique contribution to our history. To pull down the very thing that the museum is dedicated to, makes no sense.”

Details about the Save Flinders Pier campaign were on display at last weekend’s McCrae Seaside Scavenge which saw several hundred people collect

about 240kg of debris from the beach.

Mr Reis said community groups across the peninsula should “join together” on issues that affect everyone.

He said the planned demolition at Flinders pier and the closure of the outer section of the Dromana pier were connected.

“The one common theme is the absence of consultation and poor communication before decisions are made.”

Political pledges sought for new stadium Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THE lack of quality sports facilities and resources on the Mornington Peninsula has become an election issue, with clubs and community groups calling for support from would-be MPs. One group, the Southern Peninsula Basketball Association, wants the help of politicians and candidates to achieve its dream of building a community sports and wellness hub at Dromana.

The project’s key outcome is for a new stadium to become the administrative hub for all indoor sports in the southern peninsula, which proponents say will boost the peninsula’s economy and employment rate.

General manager Ben White said the SPBA had been working with all levels of government on the project for the past three years.

He said the centre would provide sporting groups with an all-weather, safe and cohesive centre that encourages additional sports, such as badminton and volleyball.

“This will be delivered through constructing an additional three courts and increased seating for 2000 spectators,” he said.

“The benefit of this project is to be able to engage with the wider community and cater for all abilities sports and development which is currently lacking in the area.”

Mr White said the association was pushing hard for the project, and that it was “clear it is starting to become

ARTIST’S impression of the “sports and wellness hub” planned for Dromana. a contentious issue with lack of resources in the region for this”.

The association, which has organised a petition, has met with federal Liberal and Labor candidates and will soon meet the independents and state election candidates in the hope that they see the merits in financing the facility.

Nepean MP Chris Brayne said he would continue to meet with the Southern Peninsula Basketball Association about its plans for a stadium in Dromana.

"We are also currently building an incredible gymnasium at Rosebud Primary School which will be an asset

to the entire southern peninsula community."

With the peninsula’s rapid growth in population and amenities in recent years, Mr White said sports such as badminton, volleyball and table tennis would continue to fall through the cracks without extra courts.

The five courts used by sports bodies at Dromana are now at 100 per cent capacity and as recently highlighted in Mornington Peninsula Shire’s indoor sports facility audit, at least another 15 courts will be needed by 2030.

The proposed Dromana redevelopment includes a show court, which

will be able to attract players and clubs from around the region and meet the standard requirement to host major and regional events and competitions.

Mr White said the SPBA would be able to cater for all groups, including disadvantaged community members - people with a disability, the elderly, low-income, single parents, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and newly migrated families - as outlined by the federal government’s aim of driving social inclusion through sports and participation.

Vulnerable groups would be offered programs and assistance such as “walking with basketball” for those

who are less active or able.

The courts will offer childcare, all abilities access and facilities, and designated male and female locker rooms for home and opposing teams, and a new administrative area.

Basketball Victoria’s general manager member and services, David Huxtable, said his organisation supported developing facilities to support the growth of basketball in the region, which was backed up by data on the growth of sport in communities.

“What is harder to measure is the positive impact that a recreational facility can have on the local community, with the capacity to increase the community’s interaction and the continued development of team characteristics,” he said.

Each year the SPBA holds the second-largest basketball tournament in the southern hemisphere, bringing close to 20,000 players, spectators, referees, and volunteers who often stay on the peninsula. It is estimated the event brings about $1.9 million into the peninsula’s economy.

“We are focusing on delivering the largest infrastructure project in the southern peninsula of an all-inclusive sporting and wellbeing hub. An achievement that would see countless benefits to the community and economy and rekindle social inclusion,” Mr White said.

If given the go ahead, the project’s new building will be located next to its current centre in Old White Hill Road, Dromana.

Mooring fees tied to making a profit Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au

Costly rides on illegal bikes HASTINGS police have been busy dealing with illegal behaviour on motorised bicycles and have warned that parents and riders need to know the rules for taking motorised vehicles on the toad.

In two of the most recent incidents, police impounded an illegal motorised bicycle after a male was caught doing monos in Hastings on 12 February.

Just after 5.30pm, police were called by a resident who had filmed the bike’s rider lifting the front wheel off the ground while riding on a public road.

A divisional van went to a Hastings address where police found the bike, but found the occupants of the house were “uncooperative” in helping them identify the rider.

The bike was seized and impounded at a cost of $1300 to the owner.

A few hours later at about 9.15pm, police in the Hastings divisional spotted a male not wearing a helmet while riding a 350 watt e-bike without lights.

Police intercepted the rider a short time later and impounded the bike at a cost to the owner of $1300.

Police are advising parents of children or teenagers with electric scooters or skateboards that state legislation dictates that it needs to be under 200 watts or have a top speed of under 10kph.

If the vehicle exceeds those parameters then it is classed as a motor vehicle and all the relevant road laws are applicable. It must be registered, the rider must be licensed, and drink and drug driving laws apply.

Off the road A MOTORCYCLIST, 26, of Mornington was intercepted on Graydens Road, Tuerong, on 19 February riding at 184kph in an 80kph zone.

His motorcycle was impounded and he will face a 12-month licence loss.

Mornington police have issued a reminder that roads are shared, and to drive responsibility for the safety of all.

THE mooring permit holders have accused Parks Victoria of “gouging” and using unfair practices that do not allow pro-rata payments.

Kim Stringer, of Rye, who holds a mooring permit at Blairgowrie, said the authority was in many cases getting several payments for the one permit.

She said she was surprised when, after signing up for a 12-month permit In December last year, she was then sent a bill just two months later for another 12 months.

It seemed unusual, she said, given that the permit was not even close to expiring when she took it over, but had been paid in full by the previous holder.

“So, because I took on the permit before the start of the permit year, I had to pay in full and then in full again when the permit year started, this is wrong on so many levels,” Ms Stringer said.

“Why do I have to pay again, admin fees and other costs can’t be that high? I know the previous permit holder didn’t get a refund, so that’s three payments for the same mooring.

“That’s unfair and that’s gouging.”

Ms Stringer said she wanted the issue exposed to try to bring about change, but that Parks Victoria told her that it was a government department and “it can do what it likes”.

“I know other people in the same situation, and we all think it’s crazy,” she said.

District manager Graeme Davis said Parks Victoria issued thousands of permits for moorings and berths within Port Phillip and Western

Port, with all fees set annually from the beginning of each financial year.

“The vessel mooring fees in Port Phillip and Western Port are among the lowest in Australia,” he said.

The $122 annual mooring fee for Blairgowrie, allows holders to moor a vessel for the year. The permits expire in February with the annual fee due in March.

Parks Victoria says a permit transfer or establishment fee may also be charged to cover administrative costs, which allows them to cover part of the costs of managing and administering over 3500 moorings across more than 80 fields.

Parks does not offer a pro-rata on any fees or charges, with all piers, jetties, harbours, and permits are non-transferable, except in certain circumstances. However, there are destination and seasonal moorings for short-term boating enthusiasts.

With the two campaigners are students Henry, Campbell, Sophie and Lucinda. Picture: Gary Sissons

Libs promise $3.2m for school OPPOSITION leader Matthew Guy went to Somers Primary School on Friday with a promised to spend $3.2 million on the 84-yearold school if his party wins the November state election.

Mr Guy said the school deserved better facilities as Somers was home to many young families, with more moving into the town as permanent residents during COVID lockdowns and restrictions.

He said parents deserved “certainty” after two years of interrupted learning.

“Now, more than ever, parents need certainty and the confidence their children will not fall further behind at school, which includes having the best facilities available,” Mr Guy said.

Somers Primary’s administration building is a 20-year-old portable.

The money promised by Mr Guy would kickstart the development of the school’s master plan and allow completion of its first stage, including a new administrative building big enough for the entire school community to meet for school assemblies.

Mr Guy said the school had been “overlooked

by Labor”.

However, the Save our Schools group, which wants to end the “chronic under-funding of public schools”, says public schools are underfinanced by federal and state governments.

Its recent analysis shows that all government spending for independent schools increased by $3338 a student over a decade, compared with $703 more per student for public schools.

The group predicted a $74 billion shortfall in money for public schools this decade despite finance models working on a needs-based scheme that was introduced by the Turnbull government.

Victoria’s education minister, James Merlino, was contacted for comment.

The Liberal candidate for Hastings, Briony Hutton, was also at Friday’s funding announcement and said money for schools was an important issue for the growing Somers community.

She said locals “deserved a government that delivered the projects they need, when they need it”.

Team ready to leap into action for kangaroos VOLUNTEERS are standing by ready to help evacuate more than 500 kangaroos trapped on private property near cape Schanck.

The kangaroos, once under threat of being culled, are fenced in and cannot access their usual habitat of Greens Bush National Park.

Members of the Save the Mornington Peninsula Kangaroos group say the animals have been there since last September “with limited feed

and shelter”.

Mary Waterman says the group has a “kangaroo movement plan” and has offered to provide one-way gates “for their safe removal from the property”.

She accuses the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning of not “granting permits and allowing action” and overestimating kangaroo numbers.

Artificial reef off Point Nepean Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au AN artificial reef being installed off Point Nepean next month will give anglers a spot away from busy shipping lanes to catch yellowtail kingfish.

The reef will have 16 large concrete structures set in clusters of four about 50 metres apart.

“Identical concrete modules have been deployed off the New South Wales coast at Shoalhaven and have proven to be outstanding in attracting Yellowtail Kingfish,” Futurefish Foundation director David Kramer said.

“They quickly obtain weed growth and provide a perfect reef in strong tidal waters.”

Once in place, the Nepean reef will be the largest artificial reef in Victoria.

Mr Kramer said he had first discussed the reef three years ago with Nepean MP Chris Brayne “to build a reef somewhere down towards Port Phillip heads and a reef that would attract highly prized yellowtail kingfish”.

The plan was “coming to fruition … thanks to the state government’s $35 million investment in recreational fishing”.

“Part of that investment was a commitment to install $2.5 million of new reefs in Port Phillip.

The new kingfish reef is the last instalment of the program after three smaller reefs were placed in Corio Bay near Geelong in 2021,” Mr Kramer said.

Mr Brayne said that in the past 15 years reefs had been installed off Frankston, Seaford, Chelsea, Aspendale, Altona, Portarlington, Geelong and St Kilda.

“Most of these reefs have enhanced recreational fishing for schnapper after decades of scallop dredging destroyed natural habitat in the bay,” Mr Brayne said.

Mr Kramer, a fishing broadcaster, writer and

Old tyres for the road A SECTION of Bentons Road in Moorooduc is open to traffic, but with a bitumen made from recycled tyres instead of the previously announced Plastiphalt Contractors and Mornington Peninsula Shire agreed on the new crumb-rubber asphalt pavement for the 1.6 kilometre stretch of the road.

“It’s been a challenging ride with storms, material delays and COVID-19 isolation setting us back along the way. But we got there in the end, enjoy the road and drive safe,” Cr Lisa Dixon said (“Patience runs out as drivers ignore road barriers” The News 7/2/22).

The 1450 tonnes of asphalt includes about 9200kg of recycled rubber (about 920 tyres) and 145 tonnes of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) which led to a 5-10 per cent reduction in CO2 emissions.

The long-delayed work is part of the shire’s environmentally sustainable design policy for council buildings and civil works, which seeks to minimise the environmental impact of construction works. It also supports the 2030 target of shire having used 22,829 tonnes of recycled content in its civil or construction works.

Women’s day event

SIXTEEN concrete structures will be submerged off Point Nepean to create an artificial reef designed to be “home” for yellowtail kingfish, right, as caught by David Kramer.

Pictures: Supplied tackle shop owner, said yellowtail kingfish had made “a remarkable return to Port Phillip, particularly in The Rip. However, the most popular place to fish for them is right in the middle of the shipping channel”.

“This reef will not take anything away from the great fishing in The Rip, but will provide an alternative place to fish where it is less dangerous and not as busy with shipping.”

Dog rescued after 11 hours in pipe

Shire’s call for electric train Continued from Page 1 Ms Hosking cautioned that the section to Langwarrin would not go ahead without the cooperation of both state and federal governments, and the state was not yet on board.

The shire council’s advocacy document highlights that there is currently no access to public transport for 82 per cent of the peninsula community.

Ms Hosking said another way of looking at it was that five per cent of Melbourne’s population “already lives beyond the end of the Frankston train line, and this number grows daily”.

“Current and future demand for public transport means that councils with vision and guts, like the shire, can get on with long-term strategic infrastructure planning.”

The council stated that, “improved rail access will provide clear benefits to our community” including “a reduction in car dependency; better connectivity and access to jobs, education, services and amenity; and improved connectivity for those with restricted mobility”.

Ms Hosking said the shire council was showing that “it understands the big picture, that transformational public transport projects like this need to get rolling so the next generation will benefit”.

“The council’s advocacy campaign will give the rail project a big boost. It’s important to have both local councils reminding today’s state and federal governments to build the infrastructure our children will rely on.”

Frankston Council too has changed its position on the proposed train extension, telling Transport Infrastructure Minister Ben Carroll last October that it wanted a “staged delivery approach, commencing with electrification ... to a new Leawarra Station”. This letter also stated Frankston was “supportive of extension to Langwarrin should further investigations determine that being the more appropriate location for the first stage”.

A DOG has survived an all night ordeal stuck in the pipes under a Frankston sports ground.

14-year-old Jack Russell Terrier Tuppence was walking at Ballam Park with her owner when she ran off into some pipes. She became stuck inside, and spent the next 11 hours there.

Tuppence’s owner Laura Sorraghan said she was overwhelmed with emotion when her dog was finally freed. “I was beside myself laughing and crying,” she said.

“She went in just before 8pm and then they got her out at around 7am.

She was fine, she was a bit stiff the next day but she had a massage and she’s been all good.”

Ms Sorraghan said she was able to get her dog free thanks to the help of others. “There were two people on the oval on the cricket pitch with their dog, I ran over to them and told them my dog was stuck in a pipe and they came over and tried to call her. He then rang council then they rang the CFA. The CFA came but they had to leave, which is when the SES came.

They were there until about 5am,” she said.

“A mate of my dad’s has got an excavator, eventually they dug her up and got her free. Lee Milburn from Peninsula Directional Drilling was a big help, I really want to thank him.”

SUNDAY

KILLING EVE

ABC TV, 9.30pm

SATURDAY

EUROVISION: AUSTRALIA DECIDES

SBS, 8.30pm

There’s a lot to love about Eurovision, which is probably why it’s the world’s longest-running TV contest. Since 2015, Aussie viewers have had an extra incentive to tune in and enjoy the melodic spectacle, with Australia joining the list of competitors (only the second country outside of Europe to do so in its history). Tonight, hosts Joel Creasey and Myf Warhurst showcase the artists, including Paulini, and Jaguar Jonze and Isaiah Firebrace, competing for their chance to represent Australia.

FRIDAY

THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW

TEN, 7.30pm

You can count on host Graham Norton (above) to deliver interesting, big-name guests and bring the laughs in his freewheeling chat show. But, in this 19th episode of his 29th season, Aussie viewers’ ears might prick up to hear that homegrown singer Natalie Imbruglia is taking to the stage*to perform her new single. Twentyfive years after her hit Torn, she’s giving the music business another go with her new song, Nothing Missing. Norton is also joined by actor Andrew Garfield.

SUNDAY

JACK RYAN: SHADOW RECRUIT

9GEM, 7.30pm

$20 OFF

The character of Jack Ryan is well-known to film audiences.

This fifth incarnation of the action hero, which isn’t adapted from a book, is handled with aplomb by Chris Pine (Star Trek, right). After graduating from the military and witnessing the events of 9/11, young CIA analyst Ryan is faced with a two-fold impending disaster: a plot to destroy the American economy with a terrorist attack. Pine is suitably good-looking and reliable, while director Kenneth Branagh takes on the role of the Russian baddie.

Knowing when to pull the plug on a hit drama is a sign of clever writers. Tonight, after three enthralling, unpredictable seasons, the final instalment of Killing Eve is premiering with a racing pulse of gunshots, messy relationships, gorgeous clothes and breathtaking locations; for a spy thriller, it revels in subverting our expectations of genre and characters. The anticipation of what befalls Eve (Sandra Oh) and Villanelle (Jodie Comer) is sky-high and, as with past seasons, there’s an exciting new showrunner in Laura Neal (Sex Education).

In “Just Dunk Me”, Villanelle has found a fresh community to try to prove she is not a monster.

Sandra Oh stars in Killing Eve.

Some issues for MP and mayor to avoid Nepean MP Chris Brayne is not the elected member of the area covering Sunnyside Beach, Mount Eliza, so what prompted him to run a [Facebook] poll about the optional dress issue at that beach (“Uncovering public opinion” The News 15/2/22)?

He should have known that the poll would not have resulted in determining the desire of the area’s residents.

The Yawa aquatic centre at Rosebud was delayed for years by such dodgy polls, escalating costs and depriving the Mornington Peninsula Shire of grants, despite being prohibited by the dictates of the Victorian Coastal Strategy.

How many of the 413 (out of 415) responses who favoured continuing optional dress were residents?

If Mr Brayne wants to be re-elected, he should get his [Labor] party to come up with funding, as the federal government has, to solve the congestion and danger at the Jetty Road end of the Mornington Peninsula freeway, which is in his electorate.

It is good that the mayor Cr Anthony Marsh wants to represent the whole shire as well as his [Briars] ward, but this is best done by supporting councillors from other wards and organisations within them (“Call for inquiry into trust ‘approvals’” The News 15/2/22). The Bass Park trustees would have been very happy to receive him as a supportive visitor, but I think they made it clear that they wanted the local councillor, Cr David Gill, as the shire’s representative.

Why would it be inappropriate and unnecessary for Cr Gill to write to the Victorian Governor Linda Dessau pointing out that trust members had not been properly approved for 10 years? Did Cr Marsh already do this?

Ray Gibb, Rosebud

Playground planning Finally, Mornington Shire Council has spent some of ratepayers’ money on Dromana.

We now have an overpriced replacement playground next to Dromana pier at a supposed project cost of $160,000 ($80,000 from the state government and $80,000 from the shire).

From memory, I read that $80,000 was for planning and design. Maybe more should have been allocated to planning and design so that some bright spark could have thought of providing sun shade sails to protect the children using the playground.

While what has been provided is good, it is not $160,000 better than the previous demolished playground, which begs the question: why wasn’t the existing playground retained and this new playground built on the other side of the Dromana pier entrance thereby giving more choice?

Something stinks at the cost of this new addition, but at least I suppose Dromana wasn’t overlooked as per usual.

Peter Low, Dromana

Nomination nightmare Getting a park at the beach or the local shops has become a nightmare in the summer on the Mornington Peninsula where it seems all Melbournians are flocking, especially during and post COVID. Local streets are copping rat run traffic as people choose alternative routes on their sat navs to direct them off Pt Nepean Road, which is often bumper to bumper.

Protected mature coastal trees and understorey are being pushed over by people wanting to park close to the beach - ironically to get a spot under the shade of the trees. Or trampled to death by their roots being exposed with informal tracks pushed through the foreshore to the beach.

And then there’s the rubbish, and jet skis. It’s costing ratepayers dearly as Mornington Peninsula Shire Council does the endless clean-ups.

To the horror of many, the peninsula has just been nominated in the top 25 places to visit worldwide.

Naturally, the tourism industry is in raptures and promoting it hammer and tong. Everyone I know, and no doubt other species losing their amenity and habitat are not so thrilled.

Climate change and governments’ endless population growth mindset are driving us all towards the cliff. Time to slow down.

Jenny Warfe, Dromana

Cleaning confusion One day while cycling, I waylaid a sweeper driver who advised me there were three (yes three) contracts for sweeping the roads of the Mornington Peninsula (“Shire, VicRoads avoid rubbish” Letters 15/2/22).

VicRoads does some of its own roads; VicRoads contracts Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to do some for them; MPSC does some of its own.

And not all of the Esplanade is covered by any of those contracts. Obviously, VicRoads and the shire converse very closely.

As a cyclist, I find road maintenance deplorable. There is no place for cyclists on peninsula roads.

However, Bentons Road is now open. Yeah.

Martin Thraves, Mount Martha

‘Death trap’ not new Mornington Peninsula motorists have known for decades that the Esplanade is extremely dangerous. (“The Esplanade a ‘death trap”’ The News 8/2/22). Personally, I never drive on it unless forced .

It is the menace of the cyclists, riding at whatever speed they choose on a narrow road with or without double white lines and heavy traffic.

It is impossible or extremely dangerous or law-breaking to pass, or most highly frustrating to be stuck behind one or a group.

This can happen every single kilometre or continue for kilometres.

Cyclists must be totally banned from the Esplanade.

There are a lot of stark raving mad people in our society, comprised mostly of those who ride bicycles on the Esplanade and those who can accept it.

Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

Handicap from start It can take almost a lifetime to find the real cause of one’s handicaps. I did not realise it at the time, spending those last four years of World War II as a schoolboy under, I now understand, to be considerable stress, anxiety, insomnia and developmental delays. No national taskforce, no paediatricians that I can recall, not to mention ageing teachers brought out of retirement and classes of some 40 boys and girls. Better late than never at 85 years?

Cliff Ellen, Rye

Candidate-in-waiting?

I was most interested to read that David Kramer “might seek pre-selection” as the Labor candidate for the seat of Mornington (“Casting a line for Mornington” The News 15/2/22). This seems to be part of a concerted campaign by the editor of the Mornington Peninsula News Group to promote David Kramer as the candidate. There is a process for pre-selecting candidates in the party and that process has not yet started for Mornington, so it is very curious that Keith Platt should be such an ardent supporter of David Kramer.

If David is eligible for pre-selection and follows the appropriate process we would welcome him putting up his name for pre-selection alongside others who are interested.

In a week when the Liberal Party appears to be imploding at the federal level, with members crossing the floor and being unable to get legislation through, and at the state level members being fined for breaching public health orders, I am somewhat bemused that you can make an article out of someone who “might seek pre-selection”. Surely there are more important things to discuss.

Marg D’Arcy, president Flinders Labor, Rye

Times have ‘not’ changed On reading about the failed petition lodged by Jessie Sheridan, (100 years ago this week, The News 8/2/22) for judicial separation from her husband, I was firstly shocked by the absolute, blatant prejudice of the time, but quickly realised that, although poor Jessie might not be so publicly misunderstood and shamed today, there is a lingering attitude that women exaggerate, are hysterical and unreasonable. Most of us have experienced this.

Jan Dwyer, Rosebud

‘Heartless’ government So, the federal Liberal/National government has recently cut funds to many recipients on the NDIS who have autism and cerebral palsy.

The reason being, wait for it, “not value for money”.

Really, how dare this heartless government talk in purely economic terms.

The people on NDIS are subject to a rigorous annual review where there is accountability in an audit for all the money they receive.

Families coping with loved ones with disabilities need these funds to give many of them a better quality of life.

If this government was serious about “value for money” why would it keep refugees indefinitely in detention, costing of millions of dollars, when they could be released to work in the community while waiting for a decision of their refugee status?

This seems to be a pattern of this uncaring federal government as to how they treat the most vulnerable in our society.

The coming federal election, I believe, can’t come soon enough to oust this dreadful ,cruel, uncaring government.

Denise Hassett, Mount Martha

Vaxxed question Almost a “Ripley believe” notice in the daily paper from a funeral director: “You are all welcome to the church service but if you wish to come to the refreshments you must have both vaccinations.”

Geoffrey Lane, Mornington

‘Thank God’ Bill’s gone Thank God, the religious discriminating bill is done for. Yes, I said “discriminating” because this what this bill was all about: allowing discrimination based on “statements of faith”.

Imagine the Christian and the Muslim cults squaring off at each other using their self-serving interpretation of their “holy books” and “statement of belief” as foundation for their abuse?

Religious freedom certainly, but not religious domination.

The core issue of “religious discrimination” could quite easily be enhanced by tweaking legislation already in place, via the Anti-Discrimination Act which outlaws the discrimination of everyone including, but not limited to, those who happen to be religious. Section 116 of the constitution also addresses freedom of religion.

Interestingly enough, this fanatical Pentecostal evangelical government wanted to expand “religious” comment where it could say and do what they wanted about such things as race and gender with total impunity to the Anti-Discrimination Act and the Constitution while at the same time attempting to prevent charities from stating their case in the public domain.

God was also looking after us by preventing the proxy advice law which would have severely reduced transparency of issues to shareholders. Proxy advice is important in facilitating informed shareholder voting and increases the accountability of boards and management who deliver poor outcomes for shareholders, especially superannuation fund members. aIf only God would inspire this alt-right neoliberal Pentecostal evangelistic government to read the bible and apply its teachings other than the aberrant theology known as The Prosperity Theology.

Australia likes to liken itself with a Christianbased philosophy, but when held accountable to “the bible” fails miserably.

The constitution, Section 116, clearly defines Australia as a secular state (“Morrison’s ‘values’” Letters 8/2/22).

Why do we even need a religious discrimination bill in the first place?

Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Bank steady on ‘strong footings’ ONE bank’s loss in 2009 was Community Bank Mount Martha’s gain.

Since trading began in 2010, the bank has steadily increased its footings - total lending and deposits - to more than $208 million in January.

The plan to establish a community bank in Mount Martha was prompted by another bank’s withdrawal from the village shopping centre.

Traders were concerned the small shopping centre would be left without a bank.

A steering committee was formed and was supported by Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited to open a Community Bank Mount Martha.

Within months the committee raised the requisite $1.1 million seed capital and with the support of Mount Martha Traders Associa-

tion leased two shops in Bay Road, formerly occupied by the bank which left town.

The new bank initially traded from Warlimont & Nutt’s offices in Lochiel Avenue but by early 2011 the fit out in Bay Road was completed and opened for business on 7 April.

Although by the end of the third year the manager, Greg Hilton and his staff, had footings of $50 million it was not enough to make a profit.

Over the next three years and with a change of manager the footings rose to $80 million.

Management of the bank then passed to Kerry Debernardi (formerly Bendigo Mornington branch manager) who guided the bank into profit with footings rising to just over $120 million.

In November 2019, after Mr Debernardi’s retirement, bank chairperson Nick Roberts announced that Gary Sanford (formerly senior manager of the Community Bank Rye Group) would take over at Mount Martha.

With the bank’s Bay Road leases due for renewal in February 2021, and as 2020 moved through the COVID pandemic, the bank found new premises in the Clock Tower building in Lochiel Avenue and began trading in mid-December 2020.

Despite the pandemic the bank’s footings exceeded $177m in the 18 months to 30 June 2021.

This enabled the annual community financing to increase from $35,000 in 2020; $80,000 in 2021; and $130,000 in the 2022 budget.

Primary School

Located just 250 metres from the beautiful shores of Westernport Bay in the close-knit community of Somers, Somers Primary School is an inclusive learning environment supported by an amazing community. We invite families looking for a school community where parents and children are respected and valued, and where teachers work tirelessly to ensure that children’s unique needs are supported, to come and tour our school with a member of our school leadership team.

At Somers Primary School, we believe learning enhances children’s lives and prepares them for success. Across our school, we apply evidence-based approaches to support children’s personal, social and academic development. This is how we ensure children are happy, engaged and making great progress at school.

We provide a diverse and engaging curriculum focused on meeting the personalised needs of each student. We offer a range of classroom, specialist and extra curricula programs in the school, including Sport and Physical Education, Visual Arts, Performing Arts, Indonesian Language Program, Science and Digital Technologies. Our Horizons and Inspire programs allow students the opportunity to explore and develop their passions and interests, and all students have the opportunity to participate in student leadership positions to develop their unique confidence and sense of self-worth.

Somers Primary School is supported by an amazing parent and family community who contribute to a range of projects and programs around the school, including our Annual Somers Arts Fair and Somers School Garden. The school works collaboratively with local community groups and organisations to nurture the unique character of the Somers community.

Over the past five years the school has undergone a number of improvements to ensure that children are happy, deeply engaged and making significant learning progress. Our school grounds have undergone significant work, including the redevelopment of our school oval, development of a play pod, a new outdoor classroom, renovation of our multipurpose room, a new rebound wall, and recently a new natural playground designed to promote creativity and social interaction. The school has also introduced school-wide approaches to promoting positive behaviour based on our school values of Collaboration, Learning, Engagement and Respect.

Across the school, teachers use assessment to ensure that teaching is targeted to individual students’ needs. Teachers follow our evidence-based Explicit Teaching Model to ensure that students are learning essential skills and knowledge to prepare them for future success. Our school uses evidence to evaluate the impact of our actions, and continually refine and improve our work.

Meet the PRINCIPAL DROMANA

College

It is a privilege to be the Principal of Dromana College and I delight in the opportunity to share with the wider community our success as a high performing school of academic excellence.

I would like to acknowledge and congratulate the whole college community for a fantastic 2021. Our students were able to excel in a diverse range of learning programs as they are continually challenged, motivated, and engaged by interesting, exciting, and relevant curriculum that caters for their individual needs. Our expansive co-curricular program sees students engage and enhance their skills in a broad range of areas such as Athletics, Dance, Science and Technology, Design, Basketball, Football, Swimming, Sailing, Aerobics, Media, Arts and Cycling - which all run adjacent to the school day.

JOEL FRASER (DUX) Dromana College is extremely proud of the outstanding VCE results achieved by the 2021 Year 12 student cohort. Our excellent VCE results, once more, clearly position Dromana College as the college of academic excellence within the local community, bearing testament to the engaging, comprehensive and sequential learning program delivered throughout Years 7 to 12. A VCE median of 31, 10% of study scores over 40 and 37% of students achieving 80+ study scores, is clear evidence of the outstanding achievements of our VCE cohort. Whilst we have great pride in our exceptional results and continue to set new benchmarks, our community can rest assured that we will strive for continuous improvement in our engaging and rigorous teaching and learning program.

Dromana College gives first priority to Literacy and Numeracy as the core and essential building blocks which underpin all learning, and which enable students to excel so that they can achieve their personal best. Students thrive in our supportive culture of high expectations, where our excellent teachers are seen as the most important resource in facilitating student success. Our hard working and dedicated staff clearly understand their core business: focusing on effective teaching and learning and improving student outcomes.

In this most challenging of years, our teachers did an absolutely magnificent job in supporting all students.

We also encourage and promote an extensive extra and co-curricula program to ensure that students have the right balance alongside their academic endeavors. This is further complemented by our outstanding college facilities, providing an environment which is conducive to learning whilst also promoting a safe and orderly school.

Each graduating student in the Dromana College ‘Class of 2021’ can look forward, with great confidence, to a successful future as a well-rounded and high achieving young adult, ready and equipped to begin their post-school journey. For the overwhelming majority of our graduates, this includes admission into the university course of their first choice. At Dromana College we provide a steadfast guarantee to our community that we will work tirelessly to continue our impressive trend of outstanding results for all students.

Congratulations and best wishes to our ‘Class of 2021’ who have further consolidated our position as the school of academic choice on the Mornington Peninsula.

Simon Jones

As I contemplate the year ahead, I reflect on the greatest strength of our school – its people. I have never been prouder of the professionalism and dedication of the staff and equally the commitment of all students to their learning. The culture of Dromana College is underpinned by our shared college values of personal best, respect, responsibility, and integrity. These values guide all our interactions and relationships.

Our well-established vision to provide effective learning for all students continues to see academic achievement that is cause for celebration. In 2021 Dromana College students outperformed all other local secondary providers. More than 90% of our Year 12 students achieved above the state mean. This achievement is outstanding and a testament to the exemplary character of our students.

The outlook for 2022 is one of positivity and optimism. Our focus and commitment to deliver the best academic outcomes for all our students ensures no student is left behind. All schools have an impact, but great schools make a difference – I am resolute in my belief that at Dromana College we make a difference.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

A Manilow Blow to the Nether Regions of Humanity

By Stuart McCullough WOAH! For the love of all that is holy, take it easy! No matter the circumstances, some lines should never be crossed.

Regardless of the depth of provocation, there are simply some places one should not go. Not all depths need to be plumbed. It’s true, I feel, that some actions are so profoundly shocking that they sail past a point of no return at a rate of knots on their way to hell. Even as I write this, it’s difficult to keep my jaw above my knees; such is the weight of shock that’s now upon me. Life, as we knew it, will never be the same. I speak, of course, of New Zealand.

Don’t get me wrong – I love New Zealand. It’s a wonderful country with warm and generous people. It’s because of my deep affection for our Kiwi neighbours that I was so shocked and disturbed beyond the point of recovery once I heard the news. Such cruelty.

Such malice. Such indifference for musical taste.

There were protesters. They were, apparently, blocking the streets of Wellington and making a nuisance of themselves around Parliament. Naturally, they had a name for their movement which made it abundantly clear that they saw themselves differently to, say, the way everyone else saw them. They had described themselves as a ‘Convoy of Freedom’. Perhaps the title ‘Angry Mob’ was already taken and subject to copyright restrictions.

I presume that the ‘Convoy of Freedom’ was a musical nod to the seventies classic by CW McCall involving a bunch of disgruntled truck drivers clogging up the freeway to protest against hook turns and that George Michael

Western Port News

song. Ostensibly the ‘Convoy of Freedom’ was in protest at various things related to Covid and the news reported that they had gathered in their ‘hundreds’.

23 February 2022

I’m not sure you can really be called a ‘protest’ if there are people gathered in their ‘hundreds’. For me, that’s more like the queue at the supermarket on Saturday mornings. The meagre num-

bers makes the response even more bewildering.

Although I profoundly disagree with those protestors and think they’re wrong about everything, I’m not sure they deserved what happened next.

Keen to disperse the protestors, the authorities hit them with a blast of Barry Manilow’s Greatest Hits. Oh the humanity. Music is often described as the food of love. This, however, was a sandwich with an extremely unpalatable filling.

News reports made breathless mention of songs like ‘Mandy’ and ‘It Could Be Magic’ but were conspicuously quiet on the matter of ‘Copacabana’. Probably because ‘Copacabana’ is not so much likely to disperse a motley group of protestors as it is to inspire a revolution. It’s a little known fact that during the 1917 Russian Revolution, the mob that swarmed through Petrograd were singing about Tony, Lola and the hottest spot north of Havana.

The songs were being played on a fifteen-minute loop. To rub salt into the wound, they also played the ‘Macarena’. This, I believe, may well constitute a breach of the Geneva Convention.

The protestors didn’t stand a chance.

They were totally Manilowed to kingdom come. Barried out of existence.

I’m sure the authorities were pleased with themselves. But they’re failing to see the bigger, noisier picture. By reaching for Barry Manilow, New Zealand has inadvertently set off a musical arms race. One side begins with ‘The Macarena’ and, before you know it, someone retaliates with ‘Escape (The Pina Colada Song)’ by Rupert Holmes.

Soon, the Copacabana is renovated

and becomes a bar called ‘O’Malleys’ where an aged Rico sits slumped in the corner, talking to himself.

Things will only get worse from there. Before long, parking for ten minutes in a five minute loading zone will earn you not only a parking ticket but a blast of ‘Popcorn’ for your troubles.

The drop off bay at the airport will now be reinforced by Celine Dion’s ‘All By Myself’. People who fail to accelerate appropriately when the lights turn green may well find themselves staring down the barrel of ‘Baby Shark’ or, God forbid, ‘Aga Do’ by Black Lace.

The people making these decisions not only have cold, dark hearts but, presumably, ears made of cloth.

Now’s my chance. Since things have taken a decidedly nasty turn, conditions are now perfect for my music.

My songs have a proven track record in clearing dance floors right across the Mornington Peninsula. They are, in actual fact, so effective, that they’ve been locked away for thirty years on occupational health and safety grounds. New Zealand – they’re yours if you want them for a modest fee….

As it turns out, New Zealand doesn’t need my music. They don’t even need Barry Manilow or the aural obscenity that is ‘The Macarena’. They were polite about it, though. They politely informed me that the role of crowd disperser had been filled by some guy called ‘Scott’ who specializes in playing ‘April Sun in Cuba’, which didn’t sound too bad until they mentioned he’d be performing it solo on the ukulele. The horror, the horror. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Seaford’s new school opened by Minister Compiled by Cameron McCullough “I HAVE not seen a better oneroomed school in the State,” was the verdict of Mr. Tait, Director of Education, when he inspected the new school at Seaford yesterday afternoon.

The occasion was the official opening of the building by Sir Alexander Peacock, Minister of Education.

Seaford residents met with little success in their agitation for a new school until Sir Alex assumed office.

About 12 months ago he promised a deputation from the Progress Association and school committee, that the building so long promised would be erected at once, and that he would perform the opening ceremony.

He did not forget his part of the contract, and Seaford yesterday marked its keen appreciation of his action.

There was a large attendance of residents and visitors at the school to welcome the Minister, who was accompanied by Hon. A. Downward, M.L.A., and Mr. Tait, Director of Education.

They were met by members of the Progress Association and School Committee.

Mr. Downward, in introducing the Minister, congratulated the people of Seaford on the fine building erected, also on the acquisition of a teacher’s residence.

Sir Alexander Peacock, in formally declaring the school opened, said he had been strongly impressed with the need that existed for an up-to-date school at Seaford – a district which he was sure would rapidly develop.

That matter had not been definitely settled, and in the meantime they should remember that they had the Caulfield Technical School.

Mr. Tait then called for cheers for the head teacher (Mr. Pitt) and Mrs. Pitt, and these were given with gusto.

Cr. Armstrong (Chairman of the Seaford School Committee) thanked the Minister for attending to open the school.

The people of Seaford, he said, were very grateful to him, for they realised with Mr. Tait that they could make no real progress without proper facilities for education. *** THE Crib Point Cricket Club held a very successful concert in Crib Hall on the 16th inst., to defray the expense of putting down the new concrete wicket in the reserve at the rear of Crib Point State school.

The artists were mostly from Finders Naval Depot, from which liberal support was given by the captain, officers and ship’s company.

Among the artists were Mrs. Miller, wife of Captain Miller, officer commanding Flinders Naval Depot, who contributed three items, in her best style.

Other excellent items were the singing of Chief Petty Officer Owens and the amusing items of Chief Petty Officer Prowse, who came to Australia on H.M.S. Renown with the Prince of Wales.

The remainder of a good programme was contributed to by Warrant Officer Pearce, Chief Petty Officers Kirkham, Hingston and Cargin, and Misses Tolson and Bowell. Mr.

As Minister for Education, he was prepared to assist in every way possible in giving facilities for education.

Besides being the Father of the Parliament he was also the father of 240,000 school children in Victoria, who attended 2332 schools.

He was determined that the children of the State should not only receive education, but that the education should be imparted under the best possible conditions.

He was glad to have Mr. Tait, the Director, with him.

Ministers come and go. Every three years they receive a political electric shock. (Laughter.)

Directors of Education, however, went on for ever. Mr. Tait had been in his position for 20 years. (Cheers.)

Mr. Tait said the building was a credit to the contractor. He had not seen a better one-roomed building in the State. (Applause.)

It was a remarkably fine school, and he hoped that the parents would now do their part.

In Mr. Pitt they had a good teacher, and it was for the parents to assist him in making the school building and the play ground attractive.

A few good pictures should be provided, also a library, and a school piano.

The success of the school largely depended on the association of teachers and parents working together for the benefit of the children.

Mr. Tait said that the wise parent would make provision for sending their children to the High Schools.

It was proposed to establish one at Frankston.

Old Peninsula come out on top, Alp knock helps Somerville to big win, Dromana too good for Carrum

By Brodie Cowburn

MPCA WOMENS

A BRILLIANT century from Kylie Walters helped Langwarrin seal a big win on Sunday.

Walters has been excellent for Langwarrin this season, with a knock of 104 against Rye last weekend her best.

She had scored half centuries in her previous two innings, and now has a century to her name as reward for her efforts.

Walters’ 104, paired with an excellent knock of 74 from opener Kiah Laughlin-Glen, contributed to Langwarrin’s big total of 247 from 30 overs.

Rye finished their 30 overs at 7/128, more than 100 runs short of what was needed to win.

Balnarring scored an impressive win on Sunday, besting Pines by eight wickets. Tootgarook had a bye.

PROVINCIAL

OLD Peninsula emerged victorious from a top of the table clash against Baden Powell last weekend.

Old Peninsula chose to bat first and put together a good innings. Most of their batters made handy contributions, helping Old Peninsula reach a final total of 204.

Justin Grant top scored for Old Peninsula with 40.

Baden Powell’s run chase got off to a good start, but faltered when both openers were dismissed in run outs.

Baden Powell kept touch with their target throughout the day. At 6/187 they looked in a good position, but time worked against them.

Baden Powell’s innings ended up expiring with the side 13 runs short of a result. They lost three wickets in quick succession to close out their innings as they chased the win.

Outside of Baden Powell and Old Peninsula, Langwarrin is also in the mix to finish on top of the Provincial division. They defeated Baxter by three wickets on Saturday to stay in contention.

A half century from Rashmika Opatha helped Mt Eliza score a narrow one wicket win over Red Hill on Saturday.

Dog Day: Mornington were too good for Rosebud in Peninsula 2nds. Mornington set a target of 205, but Rosebud only managed to get to 150 in their 40 overs.

Picture: Alan Dillon

Mt Eliza chased down 154 to win.

Sorrento rounded out the winner’s list by bowling out Long Island for 120, successfully defending their total of 145.

PENINSULA

A HUGE knock from Brenton Alp proved the difference in a high scoring clash between Somerville and Seaford Tigers on Saturday.

Belvedere Reserve hosted the two sides. The Tigers were sent in to bat first and put together an excellent innings.

Seaford Tigers set Somerville a target of 226 to win. Aaron Mountney top scored with 78.

Somerville proved more than up to the task. They lost just one wicket during their run chase, and ended up reaching their target with nine wickets and six overs to spare.

Alp’s score of 113 was the big difference between the two teams. He smashed 15 fours during his electric innings.

In other matchups, Pines scored a seven wicket win over Flinders, Heatherhill got the better of Moorooduc, and Mornington got a hardfought win over Rosebud.

DISTRICT

DROMANA kept hold of their spot on top of the ladder with a win over Carrum on Saturday.

Carrum started off on the right foot, with openers Matthew Boland and Mark Cooper combining for a 101 run partnership. After their wickets fell Carrum collapsed.

The last nine wickets of Carrum’s innings fell for just 32 runs. They finished all out for 171.

Jye Voelkl tore through Carrum’s

tail. He posted final figures of 5/37.

Dromana chased down their target with five wickets and a little under four overs to spare. They are clear on top of the District division by one win.

A big score from Gordon Waterfall was one of the deciding factors in Carrum Downs’ big win over Crib Point.

Waterfall scored 94 to help his side to a 71 run win.

Around the grounds Hastings hosted and defeated Delacombe Park, and Main Ridge got the points against Frankston YCW at Ditterich Reserve.

SUB DISTRICT

TYABB, Tootgarook, Seaford, and Skye all sit level on top of the table with eight wins each after the conclusion of another round of Sub District division cricket.

Tyabb are top of the table by percentage only. They kept hold of that

spot by comfortably defeating Skye last weekend.

Malith Chathuranga’s unbeaten score of 86 was the highlight of the day, as Tyabb defeated Skye by 67 runs.

Tootgarook let top spot slip when they lost to Pearcedale in a close contest.

Tootgarook batted first and put 188 runs on the board. Opener Travis French top scored with 85.

Pearcedale proved up for the task of chasing down the target. It ended up coming down to the final over, but Pearcedale managed to hit the winning runs with three deliveries left to spare.

Seaford also fell to defeat on Saturday, falling short against Boneo.

Mt Martha and Ballam Park rounded out the winner’s list with victories over Balnarring and Rye respectively.

Tassie venture pays off for Nichols HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou SHANE Nichols’ two-year-old filly Blonde Venture clung on to dead-heat in Sunday’s Magic Millions Tasmania 2YO Classic at Launceston.

Despite running unplaced on debut at Pakenham earlier this month, Mornington-based trainer Shane Nichols took the chance with the Capitalist filly and shipped the youngster down south to target the $75,000 juvenile race.

Handling the journey with flying colours, Blonde Venture scooted clear in the straight and looked to have the win in her sights before a late dive by the Adam Trinder-trained Jaguar Stone made things interesting. Turning to the photo finish, the final result was declared as a dead-heat.

Shane Nichols, who has had success with his young fillies heading to Tassie in the past, was thrilled with the way Blonde Venture handled the trip.

“It’s a big trip for them. She went over Thurs-

day on the boat with eight others. You can’t send anyone with them as you can’t have anyone down in the hull after they close the doors.

The horses are just down there on their own,” Nichols said.

“To go there and handle it really well as she did was great to see. She ate and drank really well and duly won.”

Nichols said he was more relieved than anything to cling on for a win, albeit as a dead-heat.

“She probably had the race won easily and just with the lack of race experience, she just pricked her ears and started to pull up,” Nichols said. “She thought the job was done.”

“It was a relief not to get rolled but it would have been nice to have the win on her own but she’s a nice filly. She’ll get better – there’s more improvement left in her.”

Blonde Venture is due to arrive back at Nichols’ stables on Monday night and may even be headed for another road trip to the $200,000 Adelaide Magic Millions in a couple weeks’ time.

Seaford United calls it quits SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie SEAFORD United players walked off Edithvale Recreation Reserve pleased with the 3-2 away win that kept their promotion hopes alive in State 4 South.

It’s Friday 30 July, 2021 and noone has the slightest inkling that this is Seaford’s last appearance in State League ranks for some time. Perhaps forever.

Peter Schwellinger was in his first full season as senior coach and along with assistant Andy Lancaster had embedded belief and structure in the squad.

When COVID-19 forced Football Victoria to call a halt to the league Seaford was third, one point behind second-placed Endeavour United after 12 games.

Everyone assumed that Schwellinger, Lancaster and almost all of the first team players would stay.

Schwellinger believed that with just a few additions to his squad it could mount a serious title push this year.

However two hurdles lay in his path and both involved negotiations with club treasurer Brian Johnstone who had been empowered to act on the committee’s behalf.

The first hurdle, an increased playing budget, was cleared but a stumbling block emerged when it came to discussing Schwellinger’s personal terms.

It was December now and Seaford was the only local club yet to name its senior coach for 2022.

A huge travel impost faced by Schwellinger who lived in Pascoe Vale and worked in Truganina was the basis of his request to have an extra $150 a week added to his 2021 coaching payment.

The club’s offer was understood to be just $25 short when negotiations stalled.

Doubts now surfaced as to whether or not Schwellinger would stay and they were realised on Boxing Day when he sent an email to club president Willie Lynn telling him of his decision to step down.

“We still don’t know what we’ve done wrong,” Lynn said.

“I’d love to find out.

“We’d like to get back into State League and we know there’s a lot of work to do but we’ve still got over 15 teams to look after.”

Schwellinger’s decision had sounded Seaford’s State League death knell as it triggered a mass player exodus

End of an era: North Seaford Reserve, home of Seaford United who withdrew from State League last week.

Picture: Steven Gray, Football Chaos from which the club would never recover.

Scott Morrison and Paul Williams were among names bandied about as possible replacements but what had become a poisoned chalice was handed to Paul Truman in early January.

“The club knew I wasn’t going to turn up with 14 or 15 players but they thought we’d maybe keep a core group,” Truman said.

“I think we lost around 18 players and in the end we simply didn’t have the numbers.”

Seaford forfeited its recent Australia Cup first round qualifying match and officially withdrew from State League competition last week.

It will run juniors and women’s teams under the FV banner and field teams in the Bayside League.

In Australia Cup news Peninsula Strikers came from a goal down at half-time to overrun visitors North Melbourne Athletic 3-1 at Centenary Park on Saturday.

Strikers’ coach Donn Delaney made two changes at the break bringing on Junior Mpota and Abe Kuol and a Kuol cross from the left in the 65th minute was headed back into the goalmouth by Cooper Andrews for Jai Power to beat the advancing

And Pines welcomed Brodie Jones (from Doveton), ex-Pines captain Graham Hill (from Brandon Park) and Dylan Waugh (Seaford United).

Chelsea lost its Cup tie 5-4 on penalties against Lara United at Lara Recreation Reserve on Friday.

Vinnie Van Dyk put Chelsea ahead in the first half but the visitors conceded a goal in injury time and eventually lost the spot-kick showdown.

Chelsea had only seven senior regulars available and included four teenage debutants.

Both local State 5 sides lost their home ties last weekend, Aspendale going down 4-3 to Surf Coast at Edithvale Recreation Reserve and Mentone losing 4-0 to Moreland United at Waratah Reserve.

The winner in Aspendale’s sevengoal thriller came in the final minute of play.

Aspendale’s scorers were Kenny Nuhanovic, Dominic Paul and James Macnab and the best for the locals were Noah Berends, Paul, Kieran Hughes and Matt Leggett.

There’s no round of Cup matches next weekend but the national knockout competition resumes the following week.

There were a number of friendlies

keeper and tap in the equaliser.

Power’s second a few minutes later was a stunning piece of individual skill.

He was in a central position when he dragged down a long ball from the right and spun past two defenders before striking his shot low and inside the far post.

Kuol got the third after a solo run cutting in from the left and his deflected shot sealed the comeback.

Frankston Pines withstood a marathon Cup tie against Albion Rovers at Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve on Friday night winning 9-8 on penalties.

A fine finish from Liam Baxter after a Tommy Hawkins flick-on in the 66th minute put Pines ahead only for Habib Fleifel to level for Albion in the 80th minute heading home following a free-kick.

The deadlock couldn’t be broken after extra time and the decisive penalty was struck home by Pines’ Fijian import Thomas Dunn.

There’s been plenty of player movement at Pines in the last week.

Goalkeeker Aeseli Batikasa, defender Penni Tuigulagula and striker Tito Vodowaqa all signed with State 2 outfit Heatherton United.

Somerville beat Old Xaverians 2-0 at Somerville Secondary College with goals from Adrian Pace and Ronnie Krishnan.

Mount Martha defeated State 4 side FC Noble Hurricanes 3-1 at Civic Reserve last weekend.

The home side opened its account in the 7th minute when Connor Mooney stole in at the back post to finish from a Mitch Hawkins centre and 16-year-old Finn Tweedie made it 2-0 in the 53rd minute when he won the ball on the edge of the area and chipped the keeper.

The visitors hit back five minutes later but Tar Visalak restored the two-goal cushion following an Ethan Sanderson assist.
