Net gain as Rosie gets on board Chris Brennan chris@mpnews.com.au TYABB Cricket Club wants Mornington Peninsula Shire to help pay for new cricket nets at Bunguyan Reserve after the old nets were taken down following the murder of Luke Batty earlier this year. President Sam Taranto said the club had already raised almost $100,000 towards the estimated $120,000 cost of building replacement cricket training nets at the Tyabb sports ground and had put in a funding request as part of the shire’s draft budget process. The old nets were removed as a sign of respect after 11-year-old Luke was killed by his father during a cricket practice session at the ground in February. “We’re almost there so we’ve asked the council to make a contribution to the costs of the new nets,” Mr Taranto said, adding that the club had raised about $40,000 from a celebrity T20 cricket match in March, as well as receiving a $20,000 grant from the state government and $19,800 from both Cricket Australia and Cricket Victoria. “It’s a fitting tribute to young Luke and we’re getting there gradually. Various people have been coming on board and we have a few applications in the pipeline so we’re hopeful we’ll be able to have the funding in place soon, especially if the council is able to help out.” A council report prepared in the response to the club’s submission states that under shire occupancy terms, the cost of maintaining cricket nets is the responsibility of the clubs. “But in this instance, given the tragic circumstances and the club’s proactive
decision to build a multi-purpose training venue available for other sports, financial support could be considered by council.” Councillor Lynn Bowden said she would be “strongly supporting” the funding request. “I’ll certainly be pushing as hard as I can,” she said. “It’s obviously very important for the community after all the tragic events so I think the council really needs to show its support and do something positive to help the healing process.” A decision will be made by 30 June. Mr Taranto also revealed Luke’s mother, Rosie Batty, had recently joined the Tyabb Cricket Club committee after expressing a strong desire to maintain her connection to the club with which her son had played as a junior. Ms Batty said she wanted to give back something to club after all the help and support she had been given following the loss of her son, Luke, and the death of her estranged partner, Greg Anderson, who was fatally shot by police. “This whole community has been so wonderfully supportive towards me through all of this, especially the cricket club, so I wanted to be able to help out where ever I’m needed,” she said. “It also gives me a chance to stay connected with the club that meant so much to Luke and keep in touch and help out his friends, who are also still grieving. Ms Batty also revealed that last Friday, 20 June, would have been Luke’s 12th birthday. “It was a tough weekend for me, but it was lovely to be able to meet up again with some of Luke’s friends at a small party held in his honour,” she said.
Skills rollout JORDAN Watson may not be quite ready to fill any gaps in the ranks of senior firefighters at Crib Point, but the refinement of her leadership skills is enabling her to pass them one to even younger members of the brigade’s junior development program. Picture: Gary Sissons

Somerville teacher named stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best Chris Brennan chris@mpnews.com.au SOMERVILLE Secondary College senior program coordinator Catherine Arnold has been named VCAL teacher of the year. Ms Arnold was named Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top VCAL teacher by Education Minister Martin Dixon at an award ceremony held last week. She was among five teachers, seven organisations and 37 students involved in 2013 Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning programs to be presented with awards at last Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ceremony at Federation Square. VCAL is an accredited hands-on senior secondary option for Year 11 and 12 students that provides practical work-related experience, as well as literacy and numeracy skills. Mr Dixon said the award winners achieved â&#x20AC;&#x153;exceptional academic and extra-curricular achievements and set a great example for their peers and colleaguesâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winners were involved in a wide variety of projects that reflected their commitment to their education and service to their community,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These awards also recognise the exceptional efforts of committed teachers and community partners who have played a significant role in the success of their VCAL students.â&#x20AC;? Ms Arnold said Somerville Secondary College had set out to provide its students with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;best practiceâ&#x20AC;? VCAL
program and the award provided welcome recognition of the success the school had achieved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very proud of the recognition the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s applied learning program has gained, especially when you consider that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a relatively young school,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to provide our students with the best learning opportunities to help them achieve successful careers in areas such as trades or services and our VCAL program provides a hands-on alternative to the traditional academic pathway.â&#x20AC;? The schools VCAL program focuses on preparing students for careers in a diverse range of trades and services, including building and construction, electrical, plumbing and health and childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s services. Students have also been involved in a large number of community programs, including a highly acclaimed project to design, construct and develop a sustainable community wetlands precinct. The project has drawn together a number of community organisations, including other schools, aged care facilities and corporate stakeholders to develop a range of environmental, educational and recreational aspects in the shared community resource. Secondary partners include the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (UNESCO) Mornington Peninsula and Western Port Biosphere Reserve.
Damned ute MYSTERY surrounds an apparent accident on Peninsula Link in the early hours of Sunday morning which left a P-plated Holden ute at the bottom of a dam in Baxter. A member of the public noticed the submerged vehicle near the Baxter-Tooradin Rd off-ramp shortly after midday on Sunday and contacted police, who initially feared the driver may still be inside. Police search and rescue divers were called in but the vehicle empty. As of Monday, Hastings highway patrol officers had been unable to get in contact with the registered owner of the vehicle. Police said the ute had not been reported stolen. Pictures: Gary Sissons

Dash shines light on a good cause BRINGING “a little dose of sunshine to those with blood cancer” is the aim of the Sunflower Dash on Sunday 29 June. Organised by the Leukaemia Foundation, the event, helps families with loved ones suffering from leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Participants of all ages and fitness levels arrange sponsors before braving the elements in the fun dash wearing sunflowers or sunflower-inspired costumes. Bittern mother of two, Amanda Webster, 27, has signed up to dash in the Kings Domain, near the famous Tan Track, with old school friend Kirsty McWilliam. The pair plans to cover their bodies with 400 sunflowers and run the Big Dash of two kilometres. Ms Webster - who dashed last year fully body painted with sunflower designs - is also organising a Facebook auction to raise donations with more than $2000 worth of items going under the hammer later this year. Most have been donated by Mornington Peninsula residents and traders. They include massages, restaurant and kayaking vouchers, jewellery, gym memberships, fitness sessions with personal trainers, photography sessions, a tent donated by Anaconda and more. The Facebook auction can be found at ‘Sunflower Dash of Awesomeness 2014’. Ms Webster hopes to raise $4000 and show that people who haven’t been personally affected can still help out and make a difference. Dashing off: Amanda Webster, right, and friend at last year’s Sunflower Dash for those with blood cancer.
Navy has a red nose – but for all the right reasons IN the lead up to SIDS and Kids Red Nose Day on Friday sailors and staff at HMAS Cerberus, Crib Point, jumped at the chance to bring attention to the cause and help former sailor John ‘Bert’ Harrison, a long-time resident of Hastings. More than 340 Navy staff opted for a red ‘nose job’ to show support for their colleague who has been fundraising for 27 years - raising more than$125,000 in the process. Mr Harrison has a personal involvement. While posted to HMAS Stalwart he was notified his wife had gone into labour. Sadly, his second daughter, Liane, passed away after 38 hours. Since then, he has devoted much of his time to supporting others who have faced the same tragedy. “The Navy has been my family for 29 years. When I left I was offered a civilian job here at Cerberus. Being surrounded by Navy people has helped me support other families that have lost children to SIDS,” Mr Harrison said. “It’s helped me provide grief counselling to others and to feel I’m making a difference.” Cerberus’s 2700 members regularly support charities through fundraising and tin-shaking efforts on their base, in the community, and right through to the greater Melbourne region. Nose jobs all round: Sailors at HMAS Cerberus are ready for Friday’s Red Nose Day to raise money for research into SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).

JUNIOR crew members’ leadership skills at Crib Point CFA are being refined as part of a junior volunteer development program. The aim is to enable experienced junior members to gain leadership qualities while teaching them responsibility and life skills. The junior crew leaders are responsible for mentoring newcomers and less-experienced juniors, thereby
making their own experiences more enjoyable. They lead by example, making sure the juniors are supporting them while going about their training tasks correctly and safely. The junior development program, which has been running for 18 years, is overseen by endorsed junior leaders who hold working with children cards. Currently, 15 junior members are aged 11 to 16. The training program consists
of a range of skills from basic firefighting, team building and leadership. New members are welcome to join the junior development program. They should phone Jackie on 0408 314 612 or Rob on 0418 621 370. The family-based Crib Point Fire Brigade – with members ranging in age from 11 to 70 - has been supporting the community for 60 years.

Belle goes above and beyond in new role HIGH-profile Winter Olympian and long-time peninsula resident Belle Brockhoff is ready to go above and beyond to help turn the tide against discrimination. The Olympic snowboarder, who grew up on her family’s estate in Dromana, was last week appointed a beyondblue ambassador and said she plans to use her new position to highlight the issue of homophobia. Brockhoff was also the only openly gay member of the Australian team at the Sochi Winter Olympics earlier this year and spoke out against Russia’s anti-gay laws. Not only is Brockhoff proud to be gay, the 21-year-old has also shared her story of depression and anxiety, and of seeking support, in the hope of inspiring others to reach out when they are struggling. Beyondblue acting CEO Dr Brian Graetz said Brockhoff had shown she shares the organisation’s passion for taking a stand against discrimination in all its forms and that her courage was an inspiration to all lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people. “Homophobia is never acceptable, and Belle has shown courage in speaking out in difficult circumstances,” Dr Graetz said. “Homophobia, like any form of discrimination, can cause long-term stress, which can lead to depression and anxiety.” He said research had shown that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people were at least three times more likely to try to take their own lives.
“LGB Australians are also three times more likely to be currently experiencing depression than their heterosexual peers and are twice as likely to be experiencing anxiety,” he said. Brockhoff said she first experienced the symptoms of depression and anxiety when she was 16 when she didn’t have confidence in herself, felt unhappy most days of the week and began to self-harm. She had her first discussion about her mental health with a GP when she accompanied her mother to a doctor’s appointment and was encouraged afterwards to have a chat with the doctor about why she was often feeling down. “The doctor diagnosed me with depression and referred me to see a psychiatrist, but I refused to do so because I felt that meant there was something wrong with me,” Brockhoff explained. “I didn’t know then just how common depression was, so I felt like a freak.” She said she hit her lowest point two years later in her final year of school, when she began experiencing increasingly angry outbursts over little things and felt like she was a burden to people around her. “That was when I decided to see a psychologist,” she said. “I saw her a few times and she helped me become more aware of my thoughts that led to particular feelings. “In the last two years, I’ve also been working with a sports psychologist who is aware of my condition. Seeking this support has made me feel

much better. “Now when I’m down, I try to surround myself with positive and happy people, or talk to my mum and dad or my sister. “I also find going for walks by myself or hanging out with a good friend helps if I’m bummed about a result during competitions.” Dr Graetz said when people share their story of depression or anxiety, it helped break down stigma around
these conditions. “Belle’s story sends a powerful message, particularly to young LGBTI people, that depression and anxiety are common conditions and having a mental health issue is not a sign of weakness. It takes courage to accept that you need help when you are struggling,” he said. Brockhoff encouraged anyone who may be having a tough time to speak up and reach out for support.
“There is a lot of support out there from the people who care about you and organisations like beyondblue. You are worthwhile and there is hope,” she said. Anyone having a tough time can contact trained mental health counsellors at the beyondblue Support Service on 1300 22 4636 or via www. beyondblue.org.au/get-support for online chat or email responses.
Enchanted path to business success POPULAR peninsula tourist attraction The Enchanted Adventure Garden was last week named as a finalist in two of the five business categories in the prestigious Telstra Business Awards. The Enchanted Adventure Garden, which is located at Arthurs seat, was the only business from the tourism sector and also the only Mornington Peninsula selection among the 25 Victorian finalists named in the national awards. First opened in 1997 as a small maze and garden attraction, the business has grown into a thriving tourist drawcard for the peninsula. The family owned business has grown to include adventure tube slides, tree surfing and live entertainment in addition to the expanded hedge maze and gardens, and employs more than 100 staff.
Owner Michael Savage said the business continued to expand and was drawing increasing numbers of visitors. “In the past three years, we’ve transformed the business from maze and garden attraction into a thriving adventure park that offers a full day of healthy outdoor activities for families. “Our annual pass memberships have grown by 300 per cent in the past 12 months and that tells us that our customers are extremely happy with our park and the services we provide.” The Enchanted Adventure Garden has been shortlisted as a finalist in both the Medium and Regional Business categories of the 2014 Telstra Business Awards, which “recognise the innovation, perseverance and passion of Australia’s small and medium business sector”.
The winners of each of the five business categories in the awards will be announced at a function at Crown Palladium Ballroom on July 7. Dunkley MP and Minister for Small Business Bruce Billson said it would be fantastic to see another peninsula business win the an award, following the success last year of Frankston business, Braap Motorcycles, which was named 2013 Victorian Small Business of the Year. “The awards recognise entrepreneurs and innovators across Australia including the mums and dads who have a go and contribute to a healthy local economy,” Mr Billson said. Further information including how to nominate is available at www. telstrabusinessawards.com Chris Brennan

Landmark ruling puts estate out of woods Chris Brennan chris@mpnews.com.au RESIDENTS of Mt Eliza Woodland estate have hailed a landmark state government decision to approve strong planning controls to protect the bushy neighbourhood from being carved up by “indiscriminate subdivision”. Mornington MP David Morris last week announced a planning amendment affecting minimum lot sizes in the Woodland estate had been approved by Planning Minister Matthew Guy. The decision, which specifies that no lot in the Woodland estate can be subdivided to an area of less than 2000 square metres, follows an exhaustive 10-year campaign by residents to have the area’s planning overlay amended. “It’s a big win for us, especially after all the work that has been put in over the past ten years to protect the character of our neighbourhood,” Mt Eliza Woodland Residents Association president Greg Menz said. “It’s not everything we asked for – we had applied for a 2500 square metre minimum lot sizes – but we’re happy enough with the decision. It’s really very pleasing news.” Most of the 1700 homes in the estate, which covers a large tract of native bushland on the eastern side of the Nepean Highway between Humphries and Canadian Bay roads, are built on
large, heavily treed blocks of more than 2500 square metres. But until last week’s decision, the zoning overlay covering the area meant there was nothing to stop property owners applying to subdivide their land for new residential developments. Mr Morris, who along with the shire council has strongly supported the resident-led campaign, said approval of planning amendment was “terrific news” for the community. “The decision marks the end of almost a decade of effort to protect the area from indiscriminate subdivision, and will ensure residential amenity is protected for the long term,” Mr Morris said. “The neighbourhood character of the Woodland, with its distinctive open landscape and largely intact tree canopy, is unique. These measures will ensure both are protected for current residents and future generations. “My congratulations to all members of our community who have stood up to protect the Woodlands and persisted in their efforts over such a long campaign. This is indeed a victory!” Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said the decision would bring “much-needed certainty” to development issues for the estate. “Council appreciates that there is a range of views among landowners and residents of the Mount Eliza Woodland area about how best to protect neigh-
bourhood character and the level of control which is appropriate, however, this approval effectively provides a conclusion to a long-running debate,” Cr Celi said. “Council recognises that protection of neighbourhood character also requires the cooperation of land owners in regard to building design, vegetation management and a range of other factors, and we look forward to working with all residents for the benefit of this area.” Former Mt Eliza Woodland Residents Association president Deborah Haydon, who led the group for seven years before stepping aside for family reasons last year, agreed the result was a major victory for the community. “We’re all very pleased that we’ve been able to preserve this area for a bit longer,” she said. “It took us a lot of time and a lot of energy, but we finally go there. It was a big task – we had to get the planning law changed, which is obviously a very difficult thing to do and has taken us nine years to achieve - but by following due process, we finally go there. “We really owe a big debt of gratitude to [founding association president] Barbara Hill for bringing all of the residents together and starting the campaign to save our neighbour. Without her, none of this would have been possible.”

Thirteen of the units provide low cost housing for disadvantaged families while the other seven are occupied by people with intellectual disabilities. The Frankston Peninsula Carers team - Joy Jarman, Marjorie Ross, Beryl Gibb, Norman Carlyon, Sue McPhee-Wright, Jim Houlahan Libby Reid, Helen Loyall and Maureen Bowler. Following the success of the Hastings Model the group is now raising money to build similar projects at Balnarring and McCrae. At Balnarring the group has an agreement with the Anglican church for a 40-year lease of land “located in an ideal situation, with all the support and social interaction needed”, Mr Carlyon said. Along with the E W Tipping Foundation the group has raised $615,000 towards the required $1.25 million. In McCrae the group has partnered service provider, Karingal and so far has managed to raise $720,000 towards the cost of buying land and building a house.
Volunteers awarded: Members of the Frankston Peninsula Carers group receiving their Excellence in Personal and Community Support Award are, from left, Maureen Bowler, Jim Houlahan, Libby Reid, Beryl Gibb, Norman Carlyon, Sue McPhee-Wright and Andrea Coote, the state Parliamentary Secretary for Disabilities.
Mr Carlyon said the state government Disability Support Register shows that at 31 December 2013, there were 330 people with disability in the southern region who need supported accommodation immediately. “There is an urgent need to build this accommodation,” he said. “We now need the support of government - federal and state - to contribute, if not match, what the community has achieved. “This represents real “value for money” for government. And it clearly demonstrates the will of government and community to work together to provide this much needed
accommodation.” Mr Carlyon said most members of the group had cared for their own children with intellectual disabilities at home for up to 50 years. “Now they can no longer cope. We are trying to address this issue.” Mr Carlyon said the National Disability Insurance Scheme would not be completed until 2019-20 – “a long way off for mothers and fathers who are in their 70s and 80s and now can no longer cope”. “These very disadvantaged people and their ageing parent carers are not expecting entitlement to this help, but they certainly deserve it, being among
those in our community who cannot do it for themselves,” he said. “We acknowledge that the NDIS has no provision for capital work but that it will assist with the costs of accommodation for a person who requires an integrated model of care and accommodation, such as those living in supported accommodation. “However, that is not the issue – we must address those who are not in supported accommodation and can no longer be cared for at home, but have nowhere else to go. “They have no choice about where and how they might live, which the NDIS says is their right.”
Kobe leads his heroes into battle A YOUNG Langwarrin boy lived out every footy fan’s dream – and it came in two parts. First, he led his beloved Bulldogs onto Etihad Stadium to play arch rivals Collingwood in the annual Robert Rose Cup on Sunday 15 June. Then, against all the odds, they won. Kobe Malloy, 7, has an undiagnosed condition that has left him with very low muscle tone, ataxia and low levels of myelin in his brain, spine and nerves, limiting his mobility. The theme of this year’s Robert Rose Cup is disability inclusion, which recognises the contribution and achievements of people of all abilities. Robert Rose was the son of Collingwood legend Bob Rose and he himself played for both the Magpies and the Bulldogs before a car crash left him quadriplegic. Naming rights sponsor of the match, law firm Slater & Gordon, selected Kobe as mascot for the game. They are representing Kobe’s family in a medical case. The firm’s medical lawyer, Anne Shortall, said Kobe was the perfect choice. “Kobe is a delightful boy with an infectious smile. He’s such an inspiration and we are thrilled to be able to give him this opportunity.” His dad, Bevan, a keen Bulldogs fan himself, said the family was excited to be part of such an important match. “Kobe is a happy little boy who continues to amaze us. “As far as we know there is no one else in the world with his condition but that doesn’t stop him from having a go. He loves playing ball games and swimming and has settled into school really well.”

Hastings U3A loses a stalwart By Peter McCullough URSULA Fenwick, an inaugural member of Hastings U3A when it was established seven years ago, passed away on 3 June. Her largely attended funeral, conducted by Rev. Alex. Packett, was held in Holy Trinity Church, Hastings on 10 June. During the course of the service Maxine Stark, who assisted Ursula in her capacity of Publicity Officer, spoke of her contribution to the Hastings U3A. Both the Creative Writing and Book Club groups were initiated by Ursula and, when a serious accident last year affected her mobility, the meeting place for both groups was changed to the Mooz cafe which was close to Ursula’s residence; her dedication was such that the groups had to continue! The eulogies were delivered by Ursula’s two sons, Roger and David, and this obituary is based on a summary of their comments. Ursula College-Steel was born in London on 15th April, 1934. Her father, an air force pilot, and mother separated when Ursula was very young and at the age of three she was sent to a convent in Belgium. Her ill treatment there led to a nervous disposition which she retained throughout her life. It also developed in her a fear of being “institutionalized” and was behind her refusal to contemplate nursing care following her accident in 2013. Even keeping her in hospital was a battle! After a time in Belgium, Ursula was placed in a home in England where
she received an occasional visit by her mother. However after the outbreak of World War Two she was shipped to Australia but the family members in whose care she was placed constantly reminded her of the need for her to be grateful to them for keeping her; this only reinforced her nervousness. The exception was her godfather, Uncle Rupert Ryan, a kind man who managed “Edrington”, the Casey property at Berwick. Ursula loved visiting the farm and there she met a number of interesting people:Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh, Sir Robert and Dame Pattie Menzies, Sir Edward Dunlop, and a succession of Indian maharajahs. The latter were probably explained by the fact that between 1944 and 1946 Lord Casey had been Governor of Bengal. When Uncle Rupert passed away in 1952 Ursula was completing her final year at St. Margarets in Berwick where she was School Captain. After teacher training she taught for a time at MLC and Caulfield Grammar. In his will Uncle Rupert left Ursula 250 pounds; she contemplated buying some land but instead opted for a trip back to England to see if she could establish links with her family. On the trip aboard the Strathnaver, Ursula met John Fenwick who was travelling back to England with his mother .After teaching in England, Ursula travelled throughout Europe before buying a bicycle and riding around the coast of England to Cumbria where she met up again with John.
The Fenwicks made her feel welcome and in 1960 John and she were married. For a short time Ursula stayed in England teaching and helping out on the Fenwick farm. Before long the young couple returned to Australia where they were involved in various occupations including running a boys-home farm near Shepparton, share farming at Bittern, and then buying five acres on Stumpy Gully Road on which they built a house. By this time a family had arrived: Roger (1960), Ann (1962) and David (1966). Ursula was kept busy teaching and looking after the family while John was occupied with farming, carpentry and cabinet making. Ursula encouraged the boys to work with their father in the house building and around the farm. At times this had serious repercussions:on one occasion when Roger was covered in paint Ursula decided that a bath in mineral turps would solve the problem. Roger recalls hearing his mother’s instruction to be brave over his shouts of agony! Over the next 30 years Ursula supported the family in their diverse and adventurous lives: she sat through football matches in the rain and drawnout cricket matches, not to mention for Roger to paddle past in the Murray River marathons. Annual family trips away were always memorable and Christmas dinners were something special. Continued page 13

Plaque honours veterans THE names of 21 local First World War veterans will be placed on an open-book-style plaque outside the newly-renovated Pearcedale public hall. This is being made possible thanks to a $9000 federal government grant. The plaque will be mounted on a brick pillar in a paved setting in the grounds of the hall which will be renovated for the centenary of Anzac commemorations next year. The hall association’s secretary, Maureen Smollen, said plans included extending the garden to include shrubs, flowers and seating as well as later adding the names of Second World War servicemen and women to the plaque. "The committee thanks the federal government – and local member for Flinders Greg Hunt - for making this grant available to us," she said. “The garden will be a permanent monument
to those men and women who paid the ultimate price for our freedom, a place for reflection for the whole community and visitors to the area." A poppy wall will be a feature at Tyabb Primary School’s centenary of Anzac commemorations thanks to a $2641 federal government grant. Visual arts teacher Sharon Wright said the poppy wall would “be a beautiful addition to our growing school grounds arts program, as well as a visual reminder for children and parents at Anzac Day and Remembrance Day ceremonies each year. "The children are looking forward to beginning the ceramic works later this year." Mr Hunt said many of the projects awarded through the Anzac centenary grants program would become permanent tributes to those who served.
Port plans a warm topic ABOUT 50 residents at the Cerberus ward meeting at Bittern Hall on June 18 were told that work was about to start on a roundabout at the intersection of Hodgins Rd and Marine Pde, Hastings. Other items mentioned at the meeting, hosted by Cr David Garnock, included overcrowding at the Balnarring kindergarten, rubbish dumping along Hendersons Rd and a fallen branch at the Crib Point Reserve. The only heat that crept into the meeting was when Cr Garnock “nailed his colours to the mast” and indicated that he was in favour of the development of the Port of Hastings,” Two groups – the Preserve Western Port Action Group and the French Island Port Stoppers - had distributed material before the meeting, but appeared to accept that concern over the environment was not the only issue.
A Hastings resident inquired about the development on the corner of Salmon and Elizabeth streets which has three levels. The resident said assurances had previously been given that the maximum height would be two storeys. The shire’s acting director, sustainable development, Allan Cowley, attributed this to new building regulations introduced by the state government. The last question - and perhaps the most interesting – was: “Why are there no solar panels on Pelican Park Recreation Centre when it has such a large expanse of roof?” This question was acclaimed by the crowd and by Cr Garnock, who promised to investigate the matter, and by the council staff - who were there in numbers and who had "Why didn't we think of that" looks on their faces.

Portrait captures shared love of peninsula GRACING the ‘Archibalds’ in Sydney early next month could be a portrait of Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Antonella Ceci. And Mt Martha artist Bill Caldwell is so pleased with his work he gives it “some chance” of success in the prestigious art show. His confidence is imbued not just by his skill at portraiture, but by his admiration of the mayor as “a striking subject”. “I had seen her several times in the local paper and she looked terrific and I thought to myself, ‘If she becomes mayor I’ll rake up the courage to ask her to sit for me. I had done mostly landscapes and still lifes, and a few portraits, and thought she would make an ideal subject. Sure enough she became mayor and kindly offered to sit.” Caldwell said he and the mayor discovered a shared love of the peninsula – its villages,
coastline and landscapes – and the setting they chose to reflect that passion is Mt Martha beach. “She is a determined woman and I wanted her to have a visionary pose, something that also tied in with the peninsula. She is wearing her gold chains in the portrait because I wanted to also show her as the mayor of Mornington.” The finished work has now been sent to the Art Gallery of NSW for assessment in the acquisitive prize. If the work is one of the lucky few – 40 out of 1000 – it will go before the judges early next month. The unlucky majority will be returned to the artists. “If it comes back I’ll have a good painting to exhibit or maybe even present to the council,” Caldwell said.

Track work earns shire rebuke Chris Brennan chris@mpnews.com.au A MORNINGTON resident has hit out at the shire council after being rebuked for voluntarily helping maintain a beach access track. For the past four years, Peter Ritchie says he has trimmed back overgrowth, cleared fallen trees and branches and levelled washed away areas of a track leading from The Esplanade to the leash-free area at Fossil Beach. But last week, Mr Ritchie made the apparent mistake of informing shire officials of his voluntary efforts after writing to the shire to suggest a number of measures to help improve the safety and amenity of the beach. Not only were his suggestions rejected, he was also informed he had “no authority” to undertake any “vegetation management and path maintenance” in the area. The emailed response to Mr Ritchie stated that “as you are not the delegated land manager for this foreshore reserve, you have no authority to undertake such activities which require a planning permit under the overlay provisions of the Mornington Peninsula Planning Scheme” and that any such works could only be undertaken by shire’s “natural systems or infrastructure maintenance teams”. “I couldn’t believe it,” Mr Ritchie told The News. “Here I am trying to do the right thing, trying to do something to help out the community and not asking for any recognition or reward in return, only to be told off. “Not only am I saving the shire money, but I’m actually helping keep people safe and making it easier for people to enjoy the area.” “If it wasn't for me spending hours down there every few months, the track would be completely impassable and overgrown.” Mr Ritchie, who lives opposite track and uses it most days to access the rocky beach, said that “not once in three years has any authority or per-

son removed one twig” from the rough pathway. However, the shire’s strategic planning manager Allan Cowley said maintenance issues concerning access to the Fossil Beach leash free area had only recently been raised with the council and were now being investigated. “The shire is the delegated land manager for this Crown land area and works undertaken must comply with maintenance standards to ensure community safety, adequate environment protection, and adherence with the planning provisions,” he told The News. “There are many volunteers, community groups
and friends groups that undertake work on shiremanaged land and residents wishing to undertake voluntary maintenance work on shire-managed land are encouraged to contact the shire.” Mr Cowley said the shire would conduct works maintain the designated signed access track to the Fossil Beach Leash Free Area “to retain the significance and biodiversity the vegetation provides in the coastal area and balance this with pedestrian access for the community”. Mr Ritchie originally wrote to the council to suggest “a small improvement” to make the beach area safer, even offering to help raise the
required funds. He said that on many occasions he had seen beach visitors, including families with prams, struggle over the dangerous, uneven rocky foreshore, and suggested placing a number of concrete slabs over the surface to provide safe access to the water. “Many children visit the beach with their parents and also encounter dangerous conditions when trying to play in the water and near the water,” he wrote. “Given the limited number of leash free areas with bay access, I believe a small improvement can be made to this area that will make it safer for all concerned. “Using five prefabricated concrete slabs of either 1-2 metres in width and a length of 4 metres, the distance from the base of the dirt track onto the beach to the edge of the water at a very low tide can be covered by a concrete path.” He said that while he had not calculated the cost of such works, he would be “happy to do so, if the project was given some consideration”. “I would also look at fundraising if the council was not able to completely fund the project. “I am unsure if any other regulatory bodies are required to give their approval to the project and I am sure you can advise if there are.” But his suggestions were rejected in no uncertain terms, with an emailed reply informing him “the shire cannot support your request”. “With relation to your request for the paving of foreshore rocks, I can advise that such a development is not supported by the VCS as it is not regarded as suitable development in the context of the environmental sensitivity of the coast. “Nor is such a proposal supported by the State Planning Policy Framework whose premier principle is ‘to provide for the protection of significant environmental and cultural values’. “On this basis, the Shire cannot support your request for paving on the foreshore rocks at Fossil Beach Leash Free Area.”

Hastings matriarch dies ONE of Hastings’ most familiar faces, Bernice Stahl, died last Friday after suffering a stroke the previous Saturday. Bernice, right, was the wife of Brian Stahl, ex-mayor, ex-councillor, Order of Australia recipient and community worker. After being diagnosed with lukemia on Thursday 12 June, Bernice began chemotheraphy. On Saturday 14 June, while in hospital, she suffered the stroke. Bernice remained unconscious after the stroke and the family were told there was no hope of recovery. Family members gathered at the Alfred Hospital over the weekend of 14 and 15 June to say their farewells. Bernice passed away quietly in her sleep at 2.20 am on Friday morning, 20 June. Current councillor for the Cerberus Ward, David Garnock said “Bernice was never far from Brian’s side during his seven years as a Councillor in the former Shire of Hastings and then for another five and a half years in the Mornington Peninsula Shire.” “Bernice was the other half of the ‘Stahl team’ that helped to achieve some great things for the Western Port community in recent decades.” “Although Brian has lost his wonderfully loving and compassionate wife of 53 years, I am confident that the community that the ‘Stahl team’ have supported and been part of for 48 years will rally around Brian and his close-knit family during this very sad time.” Her funeral will be held at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, cnr Marine Pde and Coolstore Rd, Hastings on Friday June 27 at 11.00am.

Ursula Fenwick dies at 80 Continued from Page 10 Between 1984 and 1991 all three members of the family married: Roger to Jen., Ann to Stephen, and David to Ros. Ursula went out of her way to make the new members of the family feel welcome and all the weddings were filled with great memories. In more recent years Ursula took great pride in the academic and sporting achievements of her grandsons, Josh and Sam. These happy times notwithstanding, Ursula also experienced occasions of great sadness. Her husband, John, developed schizophrenic tendencies and passed away in 1989 at the age of 59. Later her daughter, Ann, experienced the same tendencies and she died in 2010 at the age of 47. Ursula provided enormous support to both John and Ann in difficult circumstances. During these years Ursula taught at a number of schools. She was a teacher at the original St Pauls Church of England School in Frankston, which later moved to the new “Minimah” and “Woodleigh” campus where they remain today. Ursula had life long friends from her teaching career and many of them spoke at Ursulas funeral. After leaving St. Pauls Minimbah she completed qualifications in social work and then enjoyed
$299
participating in programmes at St. Johns, St. Vinnies and a number of schools including West Park in Hastings. She cared about the children, ran adventure camps and her determination to support these challenging kids was inspirational. Ursula was an avid supporter of the Demons, a legacy from the ‘50’s when Don Cordner was her pin-up boy and Ron Barassi a special favourite. She also had a great fondness for dogs, especially West Highland Terriers, and “Mac” was her constant companion in latter years. A constant cause for concern to family members was Ursula’s control of her scooter: she rolled it a few times and on one occasion drove it down the steps of the Hastings Library. If the speed dial was turned down, Ursula would turn it back up again. Her most recent accident resulted in a broken neck, but this followed two broken hips, a broken femur, broken ribs and a broken arm. While these injuries slowed her down Ursula was soon back fully engaged in the local community. As well as the U3A she supported other elderly people through local networks and the church. Her determination, love, support and immovable spirit will not be forgotten.

New study into Portsea waves A THIRD wave monitoring and modelling investigation is to be carried out at the badly eroded Portsea front beach. The $290,000 investigation will cover Port Phillip Heads, the Great Sands and the shoreline from Pt Nepean to Portsea and is expected to take 18 months. The two earlier studies were reviewed by the CSIRO which noted that there is limited wave measurement data in this part of the bay, limiting the accuracy to which any model can be calibrated and adding a degree of uncertainty to any results. Both studies recommended more extensive measurements of waves as they move into the bay from Bass Strait so that any further modelling could be precisely calibrated with some data and then later verified with other data. This latest move follows ongoing public consternation over loss of the beach near the pier and along the front of Portsea Hotel. Many resident s claim the problems began soon after channel deepening commissioned by the Port of Melbourne Corporation ended in 2009. The Department of Environment and Primary Industries has hired Worley Parsons to carry out the study. The money for the investigation comes from the Port Phillip Program budget and aims to provide wave and tide data to determine options for the future management of the beach. “Following consultation with community representatives and a rigorous selection process, an engineering consultant with coastal expertise has been appointed to carry out this work,” member for Nepean Martin Dixon said last week. The company, Worley Parsons, will measure
currents, waves and tides and will attempt to accurately model the wave climate, including seasonal wave patterns off-shore from Portsea. “Coastal erosion is a process affecting beaches around the world and, unfortunately, beaches in Port Phillip Bay are no exception,” Mr Dixon said. The minister for Environment and Climate Change, Ryan Smith, said the state government shared community concerns about the value of the beach. He said he was pleased the work was set to begin. “Victorians value the state’s natural assets, [and] that’s why we have invested more than $9 million over four years into the Protection of Port Phillip Beaches and Foreshores Program,” he said. “A further $7.5 million over four years is being invested for the Coastal Environment Program to manage coastal risks, storm damage and deliver on capital works.” Mr Smith said the government was committed to providing authorities with the resources they needed to effectively manage the coastal environment. The DEPI says it will keep residents up to date during the course of the study.
Clarification A REPORT about the Renew Hastings project (‘Pop-up shops a new front for Hastings’, The News, 10/6/14) stated $38,000 in state government funding had been provided to get the project started. The funding was provided by the federal government.
Having a yarn: Members of The Briars spinning group Maree Jones, left, and Heather Brookes, do things the old way at the historic Mt Martha property. Picture: Gary Sissons
A wheel way to spin THE Briars spinning group is a close knit fraternity – and its members know how to tell a yarn, too. The real yarn that is – the sort used to make jumpers and woollens of all sorts. They’ve had lots of practice, spinning garments as a group for 22 years with up to 15 members. Now there are four. “It’s a lot of fun,” said long-time member Heather Brookes, 77, “but we wish we had more young women joining us.” Mrs Brookes has owned her jenny for more than 15 years and still marvels at the quality of
the garments it can produce. “The home spun jumpers are expensive and people often query the price but they don’t realise what’s involved,” she said. “It’s very time consuming.” The group – which also includes Nina Saveneh, Roma McGaw and Maree Jones meets on the third Monday of the month for three hours spinning and chatting and passing the time creatively. “I’ll do it as long as I can because I get lots of pleasure out of it,” Mrs Brookes said. And she’s not just spinning us a line, either. The Briars is on Nepean Hwy, Mt Martha.

THERE has been some misinformation circulating recently following the declaration of the Port of Hastings development under the Major Transport Projects Facilitation Act, with some people failing to understand what the declaration actually means. The declaration of the Port of Hastings under the Major Transport Projects Facilitation Act (Act) does not mean it will bypass planning approvals - it in fact means the transparent approvals process will now commence. The planning approvals process for the project will be rigorous and transparent and any assertions that this is not the case are incorrect. The planning approvals process will be supported by a range of technical investigations over the next few years that will assess the project’s environmental, design, transport, economic, and social impacts. These investigations will be assessed through a transparent process with full community consultation and many opportunities will exist for community members and stakeholders have their input and be heard. The Act is designed to provide a streamlined approach to the assessment, approval and delivery of significant transport infrastructure projects. It establishes a one-stop-shop assessment and approval process whilst protecting environmental values. It does not create a bypass for common input. Project declaration is simply the first step in the process - by declaring the project under the Act, the planning approvals process can commence. A comprehensive impact statement will be completed detailing environmental, social and planning issues associated with the project. This will be available for public review and stakeholders and community members will be able to make formal submissions. It will then be evaluated by an independent assessment committee which will hold public hearings. The Port of Hastings Development Authority is already engaging with the community through various networks including the stakeholder engagement network PORTicipate, and the Council Advisory Group. Several introductory meetings have been held this year and will continue over the next few years as results from investigations are available and the project planning is progressing. The government has been clear about why we have chosen Hastings as a location to be Victoria’s second container port. We have taken the necessary steps to see the project developed and enable its assessment by setting up the Port of Hastings Development Authority, investing $110 million to undertake full planning studies and investigations, and declaring the project under the Act to ensure its full assessment. Not only are we giving the Port of Hastings serious consideration, we will ensure the Western Port community has every opportunity to be a part of the planning approvals process and by declaring the project under the Major Transport Projects Facilitation Act, we are enabling this to happen.

Sack the council I HAVE been most concerned with the matters raised in articles on Mornington Peninsula Council in the Western Port News, particularly ‘A week is a long time in council’ (10/6/14). It would seem that the council is dysfunctional, voting on lines of personal feuds instead of community needs, and using a ploy, which has gone on too long unresolved, to keep Cr Pittock from voting on SPA. As well, there appears to have been rash overspending of millions of dollars on land purchases. If they keep this up we will be bankrupted. It would seem time the state government stepped in and kicked the councillors out and put an administrator in, as happened some years back. Keith Murley, Blairgowrie

Inland pool IN 2009, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council received a backlash from the ratepayers when it was discovered that it was going to demolish the Rosebud Memorial Hall to make way for the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre or SPA. The CEO Michael Kennedy, along with Cr
David Gibb, assured ratepayers that this was, in fact, not going to happen. Now, in a "oh, by the way" moment, we see briefly mentioned in the press that this is potentially going to happen. I understand that the hall was built as a memorial to the service men and women of both world wars. As an ex-serviceman of 20 years and a Vietnam veteran, I am appalled at the apparent dismissive attitude to these people. There is an inland site in Wannaue place, use it. John Cain, McCrae
Job creation I REFER to the article ‘Young People Bear Brunt of Jobs Crisis (The News 17/6/14). The article refers to comments by discredited former Frankston Labor candidate Helen Constas and Shadow Minister Martin Foley, hardly known for his accurate comments. The Napthine government has created 77,000 jobs since coming into government, repaired the economy to be the best in the country and has $27 billion of infrastructure spending underway or planned. That, along with Victoria’s population growth, again the highest in the country, means young people have wonderful job opportunities into the future. In education, we are spending $1 billion more in schools than the last year of the Labor government. In TAFE’s we have record numbers of students doing record numbers of courses with record funding. This means we are giving Victorian students every opportunity to take advantage of the job growth and strong economic performance of Victoria. Martin Dixon, MP for Nepean
Value in his story HISTORY is a story and is best told by someone who has lived it, such as Isaac Batey and his history of the Sunbury area. I have a suspicion that Lance Hodgins has lived his articles about footy on the Mornington Peninsula through family folklore, backed up with extensive research and that his ancestor was one of the three Canadians who gave Canadian Bay its name. As an obsessed local historian, I cannot praise too highly the extreme accuracy and detail, as well as the most interesting presentation of Lance's articles. A most valuable contribution to the recording of Mornington Peninsula history. Ray Gibb, Rosebud
Forgotten ward SATURDAY 23 August must be a turning point for Red Hill Ward at the Mornington Peninsula Shire by-election. Is council really doing all it can to promote the tourism and economic development potential of the ward’s 100 wineries, restaurants and food producers, as well as multifarious other businesses and arts groups? Is council really doing all it can to protect the neighbourhood character of the ward’s unique peninsula villages – Flinders, Red Hill, Balnarring, Somers, Merricks, Shoreham and St Andrews? Is council really doing all it can to promote environmental and heritage conservation in the ward? Is council listening to Red Hill Ward community and action groups? If not, why not? Peter Holloway, candidate Red Hill Ward by-election
Costly project MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has refused to say how much rates will rise to pay for the proposed Southern Peninsula Aquatic/memorial hall project in Rosebud (SPA). At last count the SPA was $40 million (based on March 2012 costs) an increase of $6 million since last December with still more to come. By the time the project is completed in 2017-18 it could be $60-100 million when other costs such as a 4-5 year price rise, deviation of Point Nepean Rd to provide car and bus parking adjacent to the building as proposed in the Rosebud Structure Plan, moving the bowling club and provision of touted restaurants and cafe. What will our debt be and can we afford to spend so much money on a single pool/hall development at Rosebud? The answer is already given in a report by the director of sustainable development which shows that in real terms there will be an annual reduction in spending on other infrastructure and Red Hill Ward will continue to suffer. Joe Lenzo, candidate Red Hill Ward by-election

Recycling change: Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Antonella Celi with some items that can be recycled through household recycling bins from July.
$8.90
Expanded recycling collection MORE different items will be accepted for recycling through household recycling bins, and new-look rubbish trucks will be rolled out over the coming weeks. Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said the improvements are part of waste contracts that come into effect from 1 July. The new items able to be recycled are pots and pans, rigid and solid plastic items, plastic kitchen ware, pot plant containers, plastic cups and plastic children’s toys. “Increasing the range of items that can be recycled through home recycling bins is an im-
proved service and convenience for households and, as these items are no longer going straight to landfill, it’s a win for the environment too,” Cr Celi said. The new rubbish trucks and vehicles are part of the contract and, although collection days will remain the same, pick up times may differ. Bins should go out for collection the night before collection day or before 6am on the day. The new trucks will have a range of features to improve services, including hopper cameras to detect load contamination.
Aboriginal art in modern style WORKS by a Mornington-based Aboriginal organisation “reflect themes of identity in a contemporary cultural context”. The Munwarri Stand Up exhibition includes paintings, jewellery, craft by Aboriginal artists from Baluk Arts, showing their artistic development and desire to “stand up”. Baluk Arts is a non-profit Victorian Aboriginal organisation owned by Aboriginal artists from Frankston, the Mornington Peninsula and south-east Melbourne. The artists come from all over Australia and their works reflect themes of identity in a contemporary cultural context. Family groups and members of the stolen generation say Baluk Arts has enabled them to reconnect with their culture and allowed them to express their histories through artistic practices. Baluk is a Boonwurrung word meaning many. Munwarri Stand Up by Baluk Arts runs 1 July-16 August at Frankston Arts Centre’s Curved Wall Gallery. The official opening starts at 11am on Monday 7 July.
Coffee morning THE Mornington and District Historical Society’s next coffee morning will be held 10.30am Tuesday 8 July 8 in the Friendship Room, St Mark’s Uniting Church, Barkly St, Mornington. Vice-president Val Wilson will tell the story of her search for her great-grandfather which took her to the other side of the world. All welcome, $5 a person.

SES chief looks back on decades of disasters Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au IT’S going to be hard for the crew at Frankston SES to think of Brian McMannis as anything but the chief. But that’s the reality as the man credited with turning the branch into perhaps the best in the state stands down after 28 years at the top. Tributes flowed at a retirement dinner attended by 220 wellwishers at Frankston RSL last week. State emergency services commissioner Craig Lapsley, SES chief officer Trevor White, deputy chief Tim Wiebusch, Dunkley MP Bruce Billson and the heads of the local CFA, police and the RSL all sang his praises after 36 years of dedicated service. On the night, Mr McMannis – a former Frankston Citizen of the Year and recipient of the Emergency Services Medal - was awarded the first-ever life membership of the SES and praised for his dedication to the job and the sense of professionalism he had instilled in its members. “There are no hands in pockets while our officers are on the job,” said incoming chief Philip Holt, who’s served the SES for almost as long as Mr McMannis – 33 years - and as his deputy for 26. “He’s made us into a really good team and we have wonderful relationships with other emergency services.” At his Seaford base on Tuesday – which the members built themselves under his leadership – Mr McMannis recalled the wet, windy night in 1978

he first encountered SES volunteers and how he was impressed by their dedication and selflessness. “I was driving home late along McLelland Drive after heavy rain,” he said. “The SES volunteers were out there, warning drivers about flooding further along, and I stopped to have a chat with them. I realised what a terrific job they were doing and, when I got home, I told my wife about the poor buggers standing out in the rain helping people. “I took them back some hot coffee and met the rescue officer and he said if I was interested in joining to
come and see them.” Inspired, Mr McMannis soon afterwards visited the original Seaford headquarters in a house opposite the present base in McCulloch Ave. He became controller in 1986. The rest is history. The early SES crew was a creative lot with 25 members and a 1965 Dodge truck and trailer - but they had aspirations and drive. Over eight years they built a functional and purpose-built headquarters and established a reputation for hard work and professionalism. Now, with 90 members, they have modern equipment – such as the Jaws of Life

- and a fleet of three rescue vehicles, two four-wheel-drives, a mini bus, a station wagon and storm damage trailers. Storms, car accidents and fires are the mainstays of the service which receives around 1000 callouts each year. “I remember coming down here after a big storm 10 years ago and we’d had 575 calls for assistance,” Mr McMannis said. His most vivid memories include national disasters, such as the 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires and those of 2009’s Black Saturday. In the first, his Frankston crew was called to assist at Pakenham and Officer where they evacuated houses, returning later to search for bodies. In the second, Frankston crews rushed to Kinglake where the local SES had lost everything – including its truck. “After Ash Wednesday I remember hoping we’d never see another disaster like that. And then we had to go through Black Saturday.” Support from the public is vital. “We were at Kinglake for five days. Luckily, a local lady hired a generator and allowed us to live at her house. But it was a tragic situation.” More personal tragedies, unfortunately, live with him every day. The most depressing was the search for 23-year-old Sarah MacDiarmid, who went missing from Kananook station one night in July 1990 and has never been found. “I am still in touch with her parents,” he said. Another was the search for victims of serial killer Paul Denyer in
Frankston in 1993. SES volunteers did a line search to assist police and helped remove the body of one of his victims. A funeral director for the past 16 years with John Allison Monkhouse, Mr McMannis praises the company for its support and generosity in his frequent absences. His long hours on the job – up until midnight on some training nights - would not have been possible without it. And he credits improvements to road safety – such as car seat belts, airbags, and the enforcement of 0.05 blood alcohol rules as reducing the huge loss of life on our roads since the 1960s. “Even putting roadside barriers along the Frankston freeway has been of great help,” he said. Looking ahead to a simpler life, Mr McMannis says: “I feel that this is the right time to leave, although I am staying on as a volunteer. “I’ve had a lot of satisfaction helping people go through traumatic times over the years, and the work will never cease - such as on Monday when a cyclist was hit by the train at Edithvale. “Phil [Holt] has been my bridesmaid for a long time and now he can have a go. I know my wife will be happy: we can take more holidays.” Mr Holt, a teacher at McClelland College, said he was looking forward to his role as controller “but I certainly won’t be doing it for as long as Brian did. He’s staying on to support us with his huge wealth of knowledge – and I’m sure he will kick my butt if I do the wrong thing.”

Dining out with hospice HUMANITARIAN worker Moira Kelly was guest speaker at this year’s Peninsula Home Hospice lunch on Friday. More than 200 diners listened to Ms Kelly as she spoke about her work with disadvantaged children in Australia and overseas. In 2001, she was awarded the Order of Australia in recognition of her humanitarian service to both the Australian and international communities. She was Victorian of the Year in 2003 and 2012. Ms Kelly was a schoolgirl when she decided to work with children, eventually leaving Australia and working with Mother Theresa’s orphanage in Calcutta. From there her aid work took her to Botswana, Johannesburg, New York, Bosnia and Albania. She worked in soup kitchens, refugee camps, dental clinics and schools and
coordinated volunteers in an HIV/ AIDS hospital in Romania. She is now principal ambassador with Children First. Peninsula Home Hospice provides specialist palliative care to people in their own homes. Hospice medical staff can make home visits while other staff can offer advice on a variety of matters, including finances related to illness, relationships, transport, emotional and psychological distress, managing medications, funeral plans and legal matters. The hospice works in with GPs and other support services. The not-for-profit PHH was established on the Mornington Peninsula in 1984 and offers its services throughout the peninsula and Frankston.

Photographer finds silver lode at awards WEDDINGS are “bread and butter” for photographer Brian Randall, but he says there is nothing better than to being out and about shooting landscapes and seascapes on the Mornington Peninsula. A photographer for 16 years, Randall has won numerous awards for his fine art shots, culminating this year with receiving 10 silver and two silver distinctions for his 12 entries in the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP) annual Victorian awards. Based in Frankston South, Randall says that when not on location for weddings, portraits and commercial work he is “traveling around not only the greater Melbourne area, but indeed the world”. Randall is a master photographer with the AIPP and has been a member for 10 years. In 2011 he was a finalist in the landscape category and winner of the illustrative category and also a finalist for illustrative in 2013. He used his Nikon D700 with a 16-35mm lens to capture the awardwinning images. As a master photographer he was appointed to judge some of the other categories alongside other masters. “Judging the awards is such a rewarding experience,” he said. “The level of work entered is outstanding and I am humbled to be included in this calibre of professionals who are

asked to judge. “It is such an incredible experience to critique such amazing work. Although it is just as nerve wrecking while waiting for my own results whether I am judging or watching.” The AIPP’s national awards will be held in Sydney, 12-14 September.

Prayers have been answered â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;CHAPEL Cornerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is named to reflect its past as a place of worship and to this day the home still retains some of the original features that make this such a rare and intriguing home. Dating back to the 1890s, the home has been steadily extended and remodelled over the years to incorporate a more contemporary way of living and in its current form will suit a large family who are keen to utilise the beautiful natural surroundings and the splendid 5.86 hectare block. The living areas are all located downstairs, and they are nothing short of impressive. A dazzling variety of styles and decors has created warm and inviting areas with equally classy entertaining zones. A comfortable lounge room overlooks the grounds and consists of a wood fire. Through a set of sliding doors is a characterdriven family area with both casual meals and formal dining spaces, a second lounge area and the bright kitchen has a stainless-steel dishwasher and plenty of under-bench cupboards. The master bedroom with ensuite and built-in robes is also on this ground floor and there are four bedrooms upstairs sharing a second bathroom. The upstairs lounge room is perfect for children. The area surrounding the home includes a timber deck set amongst the abundant lawns and gardens and the calming, picturesque dam featuring an island gazebo with power and water - is a postcard moment unto itself. This is a working property however and the outbuildings are also of a high quality. A high-span workshop comes complete with an office and bathroom, and a second barn could be fitted out for equestrian purposes with stables and hay sheds in place to complement the existing exercise arena. There is plenty of water, with tanks plus a bore, and the extensive post and rail fencing, which is very suitable for horses, serves another purpose as the perfect final touch to this outstanding rural-residential property.

Let me entertain you
ONE of Tyabb’s original homes, this handsome three-bedroom property has been extensively renovated to now offer all the charm of yesteryear with today’s modern conveniences. The block measures about 1000 square metres and new landscaping features neat paths and hedges. Many period features have been retained inside with lovely pressed metal ceilings, decorative cornices and ceiling roses prominently featured. The magnificent 3.35-metre (11-foot) ceilings in certain parts of the home accentuate the sense of space even further and all living areas are highlighted by polished timber floors. A sparkling kitchen features Caesarstone benchtops, a dishwasher and gas hotplates, whilst a rustic touch has been retained with an electric oven incorporated into the original red brick fireplace. External improvements to the home include a double carport, and the gorgeous verandahs on all sides of the home give it that wonderful street appeal.
IF you are looking for that tree change property, this sensational retreat is sited on a massive 5000-square metre block with the idyllic lifestyle you crave and all the conveniences your family needs. The impressive drive is guarded by electronic gates, and driving past the lush gardens you get a sense of the privacy and serenity on offer. A recently renovated kitchen overlooks an open plan meals and family area, whilst a separate lounge and dining room is great for entertaining and gives the grown-ups a bit of space as well. From the family room you access the vast and breathtaking undercover alfresco zone which is complete with pizza oven, built-in barbecue and television unit. Sure to be the venue for many gatherings with family and friends, you also enjoy a pleasant outlook across the grounds to a small dam. The home has three bedrooms, including the main bedroom with ensuite and walk-in robe, and there is also a separate study.

Murphy, which takes place in the Mechanics’ Institute, Mornington, on Tuesday evening next, promises to be one of the most successful and enjoyable functions of its kind, judging from the enthusiasm and generosity which the movement has received from the public. The evening will be spent in dancing, a musical programme, and presentation. Mr Hayes will officiate at the piano, Mr Westley, violin, and Mr Hopkins, piccolo. Everybody welcome. *** AT a special meeting of the Mornington Racing Club, held in the Mechanics’ Institute on Saturday night last, it was unanimously decided to lease the present course for a period of ten years, with the right of purchase at end of third year, at a stated price. Also that the course, which contains 70 acres, be let for grazing purposes from lst July next, tenders to be called for same. The annual meeting will take place on or about the 15th August, due notice of which will be given in our advertising columns. *** A very pleasant evening was spent by the fifty couples who assembled at the progressive euchre party held in connection with the Mornington Progress Association on Wednesday evening last, at the Mechanics’ Institute. The
time allotted for play was two hours, and during that time 12 games were played, after which a coffee supper was partaken of and highly appreciated. The energetic secretary (Mr C. Whelan) and the committee are to be congratulated on the success of their undertaking, and it is hoped another such evening will be held at an early date. *** Constable and Mrs Stephenson are at present on a visit to Frankston, renewing acquaintances with old friends. ***
Officers of the Main Roads Board visited the locality recently, but were only able to go half way along the road. Their motor car got bogged, and had to be hauled out by horses.

Their motor car got bogged, and had to be hauled out by horses. The officers then inspected the road on foot, and agreed to suspend operations until winter is over. *** THERE was a splendid attendance at the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston, on Saturday evening last, when a dance was held to defray the expenses of a Frankston child who had been in the Infectious Diseases Hospital, was held. The music was all that could be desired, and Mr W. Gregory carried out the duties of MC. Proceedings terminated at midnight, when a tasty supper, provided by the ladies, was handed round. The secretarial duties were carried out by Mr M. Brody in his usual efficient manner. *** Residents of Sorrento are becoming very dissatisfied with the present mail arrangements. During the winter months the mails are sent from Melbourne to Mornington and thence by coach to Sorrento. The coach does not reach Sorrento until 3.30pm, and consequently letters are not delivered until after 4pm. Sorrento is only 60 miles from Melbourne and there is a good road, which could be further improved
at little expense. Local residents contend that the postal authorities should endeavor to arrange for a motor service, as the present arrangements are antiquated and slow. *** AT the meeting of the Chelsea Progress Association on Saturday night, Mr Shillinglaw drew attention to the irregularity of the 6.43am workmen’s train to Flinders Street. He said it was supposed to arrive at 18 minutes before 8am. Frequently it was 5 or 10 minutes late, and on two occasions lately it arrived at 8.15, with the result that several workmen travelling by it lost their day’s work through being late. Mr Howard said the 7.27am train to town has also, for the last month or two, been running in a very erratic manner. For four or five days out of the six in the week it arrived in town from five to twenty minutes late. The delay took place through dealing with horse boxes on the train. More over there was not sufficient accommodation. Directly the train left Mordialloc the carriages were packed. The 5.9pm express from town was also getting most inconvenient. The accommodation was quite inadequate, and when a number of drill shirkers bound for Langwarrin got on, things were very bad indeed. On the motion of Messrs Barnes and Howard, the committee was requested to take action in the matter. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 27 June 1914

HISTORY
In search of the origins of peninsula football
Above: Early days at Frankston Left: Mornington Township Estate for sale. Below: Mornington Railway Station Bottom: Portsea looking towards Queenscliff
By Lance Hodgins Part Four IN the Melbourne of 1858, it had been only a matter of weeks before the schoolboy matches were followed by young adults forming clubs and challenging each other to games of Australian football. In the case of Mornington, however, it would take a little longer for the 1883 Academy/Vale Street encounter to have the same reaction. Perhaps the light population of the area had something to do with this. In the early 1880s, Mornington had just over 500 people and was clearly the legal and economic hub of the peninsula. This was more than twice the number in Hastings and three times that of Frankston which, at that time, had only 29 houses and 173 people! Over the next decade, however, this balance was to change dramatically with many implications for economic, political and sporting activity. In 1882, the railway came to Frankston and the sleepy little village was linked to the suburban network of Melbourne. This created a ten-year boom period in which hotels, banks, the first Ritchie store, and several small industries sprang up. From the outset, rumours were rife in Frankston that a football club was soon to be formed, but there were fears that the town still lacked sufficient young men to support it. The game was thriving in Dandenong, they argued, conveniently and impatiently ignoring the fact that Dandenong had been established as the economic “gateway to Gippsland” for over two decades. The population of Frankston began to grow steadily. It didn’t take long for the newcomers to “flex their muscles” and challenge Mornington for supremacy on several fronts. For instance, Frankston demanded a greater say in local government matters, especially the funding of roads. In fact, animosity between the two towns would ultimately lead to the severance of Mornington and the creation of two separate shires. Despite the growing animosity between these two main towns, the peninsula would have to wait five years after the coming of the railway for
them to meet on the football field. On 11th June 1887, the Frankston and Mornington clubs were scheduled to meet at “the Point”. Excitement ran high amongst the young men of each town and they were bitterly disappointed when the match was cancelled due to a clerical error on the part of the Frankston secretary. And so it was on Saturday 18th June 1887 that the first senior game of football was finally played on the Mornington Peninsula. With both sides at full strength, and rivalry keen between the two towns, play was tough from the start. The large crowd, probably including many former schoolboys from four years earlier, urged on the home team – but to no avail. Frankston proved too strong for the “Pointers” and ran out easy victors 4 goals to nil. No behinds were recorded as they were not yet included in the rules of the game. The best players for Frankston were Sadlier, Kelso, O’Grady, Bentick, Westaway and Clark. Mornington were well represented by Waycott, Healy, Crawford, Evans sr and jr, W Edwards, Gillott and Martin. So successful was this game that a return bout was scheduled for five weeks later on Saturday 16th July 1887 at Frankston. A close game was expected, as Mornington had practised hard to improve their play, but this was not to be as they were without a couple of their best players from the previous game. Frankston scored 3 goals and sundry behinds to a few behinds only from Mornington. Finally, on 27th August, the two teams met for a third time at Frankston. This time the Mornington team played three men short and went down 3 goals to 1. The game was reportedly enjoyed by all, who agreed that Mornington were definitely improving and should, in time, be successful. As a result of the three Mornington/ Frankston encounters in 1887, football on the Peninsula was finally off to a flying start. The summer months were spent in eager anticipation of the next season. Mornington had signed up a large membership and the town was obviously behind them. Other towns
began to watch developments with interest. By April 1888, both sides were hard at practice in preparation of their resumption of “hostilities”. The Mornington players were improving under the continued leadership of Waycott, their captain and secretary. He arranged to meet Frankston at Mornington on 12th May. Sadlier was still Frankston’s captain and, despite his team being three players short, they were equally confident of success. The morning was so wet that Mornington considered cancelling the game, but the rain ceased at noon and the game got under way at the customary time of three o’clock. Attendance was limited by the weather, but brightened by the appearance of several young ladies from Frankston. Their cheering, no doubt, was greatest for O’Grady when he kicked Frankston’s first goal. After a long passage of good play, Mornington replied with a leveller and then almost immediately a second goal, which was disputed by the Frankston players and subsequently not allowed by the umpire. Frankston then scored their second goal which made them the winners, when dark-
ness caused play to be called. The young Mornington side had proven themselves worthy opponents and, more importantly, good sports when they extended the usual courtesies and entertainment to their visitors before they left for home. The two teams met only once more that year, with the honours again going to Frankston. Frankston went on to play 14 matches in 1888, no doubt helped by their rail link to other teams in Melbourne’s suburbs. Brighton, Essendon District, Dandenong and Victorian Railways South Suburban were amongst their opponents. Mornington hosted, and lost, three games in June 1888 against teams from Melbourne: the Electric Telegraph, North Park (Hotham) and the Wanderers. A win against a team from St Kilda was marred by fisticuffs after the Mornington umpire, H Worrell, was abused by the visitors. South Melbourne Seconds also made the journey to Mornington and beat the locals 7-6 to 4-6. Of greater significance to football on the Mornington Peninsula was the emergence of a Sorrento football club during 1888. A game was played at Portsea against Queenscliff, and a draw was obtained against a com-
bined team from the South Channel, Franklin and Nepean Forts. A challenge was soon issued to the “boss club” – Mornington – and the two teams decided to meet on neutral half-way territory at Dromana. A huge crowd witnessed rough football as Harry Watts’ heavier Sorrento team took the game up to Waycott’s faster and more experienced players. After two hours’ play, a draw was declared at two goals each. The return bout was eagerly awaited. When the Mornington lads travelled to Sorrento, they struggled to adapt their play to the “sand hills” of their opponents – and lost 4 goals to nil. The importance of these games was not lost on the other towns of the peninsula who looked on with envy. Furthermore, the railroad was coming to Mornington and Stony Point next year, and this would create a network of growing towns. Over the summer months, there was much talk of forming new clubs for the 1889 season. It seemed that the secretaries of these new clubs were going to be very busy now that football had finally arrived on the Mornington Peninsula.

Get ready to head north for winter MANY people are preparing to go north for the winter and escape colder Victorian weather. It is a matter of getting everything in order and preparing the items to be included for your break. The vehicle has to have a service and new tyres if needed but have you given the caravan its fair share of attention? The tyres are okay, there is plenty of tread but how old are they? The tyre experts say that any tyre older than 5-6 years should be replaced, regardless of the amount of tread left. You will find the manufacture date on the side of the tyre, usually embossed into it. This is in fact quite cheap insurance. Have you recently checked your wheel bearings for sufficient grease and wear as well as your brake linings for even wear and will they last for the distance you are travelling? Most people don’t regard some of the roads as being any different in what they do to our caravans but dirt roads, no matter how slowly you travel, do more damage than a smooth bitumen road. Bearings and brakes are not immune to dust,

See our range of caravan accessories at our new showroom which acts as an abrasive on all caravan parts. If you have not been north before, you will find the fine red dust is able to find its way into everything and that includes all of the chassis moving parts as well as all of the items in the front boot, around the fridge and any other area that has an outside vent. If you have the need to cross water over the road that is more than 200mm (8 inches) deep, then at the next available opportunity check your bearings and brakes as they may have been affected, especially if the water crossing came immediately before travelling on a dirt road. Don’t leave it too long. Some of the things that you may need to consider, as well as the items that you have
decided to take, are: Extra 15 amp lead (some power points are further away than you think). All leads must be tested and tagged at least every 12 months (new rules). Extra water hose and fittings. Snatch strap and spare D shackles (in case you need to be pulled out of a bog). U-Tow Caravans can service your caravan and we are qualified to test and tag your electrical appliances.

Bare rooted planting Winter is the best time for planting, because it gives the plants plenty of time to establish before the hot summer. You can buy deciduous plants bare rooted - everything from fruit trees to roses and ornamental. A bare rooted plant is just that, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bare rooted. During winter, trees and shrubs that have been grown in the field are dug up when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re dormant, and sold, ready for planting.
Try to plant the tree as soon as you arrive home and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave it lying in the sun while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re digging. Bare rooted plants are available in winter June, July and August. After August itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too late because they start to shoot and then transplanting because a problem. Happy Gardening!

My World Cup runneth over By Stuart McCullough *ARGH!* How incredibly tedious. Before a ball has been kicked or a goal scored, I am heartily sick to death of the World Cup. It’s not the fault of the players, as such. Like anyone, I look forward to nearly everything about the game itself – from the thrill of seeing that round ball sail past the goalkeeper’s hands into the net, to the first spurious dive that, should it not attract a penalty would almost certainly win a nomination for ‘Best Actor in a Supporting Role’. Even the threat of a ‘World Cup Theme Song’ that’s about as tuneful as a second hand piece of footwear or the possible return of the ‘Vuvuzela’ are not enough to put me off the world game. No, sir. There is one thing and one thing only that turns me off soccer as a sport, an idea and as a way to make ninety minutes of my life vanish – psychic animals. Let me be clear: I quite like animals, generally speaking. But I detest with a passion that is barely human any creature – whether hooved, clawed or tentacled, that claims it can predict the future. This is especially so for any critter that dares claim that it can tip the winner of this year’s World Cup. As surely as night follows day follows large-scale integrity probe, one the planet’s biggest sporting events never fails to result in an onslaught of psychic animals queuing up to predict everything from the winner of the overall tournament right down to the temperature of the hotdogs. It’s depressing on multiple levels. For starters, there’s the sheer number
of God’s creatures who claim they can predict the future. Then there’s the fact that the world’s media will line up like a bunch of (presumably) non-psychic lemmings to watch as some miserable creature walks, crawls, swims or rolls in the general direction of someone’s national colours. The whole spectacle diminishes man and beast alike. Let’s start with Paul the Octopus.
Every four years this under-achieving octopod was dragged out before the salivating hoards and asked to predict the outcome. Frankly, if the beast was that clever, it wouldn’t be picking a winner by drifting inertly past one country’s flag, it would be up in the commentary box, giving special comments. “So Paul, how did you see that last play?” “Bubble, bubble, bubble,
bubble.” Frankly, if only the humanoids that currently clog up the commentary teams could make remarks as insightful as that, the whole thing would be a lot more enjoyable. I realise that everyone’s got to make a living but this is no way for a selfrespecting octopus to get by. If you had eight hands, you’d want to make the most of it. Do something meaningful. Maybe even start a band. An octopus could probably play everything itself. Drums, bass, guitar and keys – and still have hands left over. Paul the Psychic Octopus should have cashed in his winnings, left his tank, changed his name to ‘Squid Vicious’ and started his own punk band. Or a rhythm and blues band called ‘The Rolling Stonefish’. Or ‘Joe Calamari and the Black Sorrows’. Sadly, Paul won’t be joining us in Basil as he passed away in 2010. I bet he never saw it coming. Truth be told, the only contribution an octopus should be making to the World Cup is as an entrée. Now we are left with a giant, octopus-shaped gap as the World Cup begins and all kinds of creatures rush to fill the void. There’s Big Head the Clairvoyant Turtle (Brazil), Fred the Predicting Ferret (Ukraine), Funtik the Telepathic Pig (also Ukraine) and Sikko the Psychic Guinea Pig (Netherlands). If these jokers really have supernatural powers, they should be solving crimes, not telling us who’ll emerge victorious in a stoush between Cameroon and Lithuania. In fact, they should join forces to form an elite crime-fighting unit, the likes of which
the world has ever seen. Move aside Simon ‘The Mentalist’ Baker; this will be the most exciting multi-creature team effort since a cat, elephant, dog and gorilla joined forces and called themselves The Banana Splits to become the greatest rock and roll band ever known to humanity. Worst of all, all this tomfoolery encourages others. If I never hear another word about Rudy, the Clinker Predicting Gerbil – who can guess with thirty percent accuracy whether the clinker you’re about to bite into will be green, yellow or pink on the inside – then I’ll be happy. The less said about Daryl, The Extrasensory One-Toed Sloth (whose only claim to fame is being able to predict whether the express train from Frankston to Flinders Street will depart on time) the better we’ll all be. It occurs to me that there’s an easier way to World Cup success. Forget training and team drills. That stuff is for suckers. Real success comes in winning over the animals. It all starts with the flag. Just as an electro-blue light is as a siren’s call to insects, we’ve got to come up with a new flag that is innately attractive to futurepredicting animals. When turned loose and given a choice between two flags, Siegfried the Soothsaying Donkey, Trevor the Magical Mexican Fighting Fish, Toby the Wombat-Dynamo and the whole useless menagerie will be irresistibly drawn to ours. Only then, I feel, will victory be certain. Now that’s what I call sport. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Performance THE architect of Canadian rock ‘n’ roll, popular CBC Radio One host and founder of Bachman Turner Overdrive, Randy Bachman, has announced the release of Every Song Tells a Story, a CD/DVD set. The new release will be made available on CD and in both standard definition and Blu-Ray DVD formats. Recorded in April 2013 at Pantages Playhouse Theatre in Winnipeg, Every Song Tells a Story features Bachman in a rare and intimate setting, weaving together the transcendent and iconic hits of the Guess Who and BachmanTurner Overdrive, with the often-humorous stories that originally brought the songs to life. Inspired by his award-winning radio program Vinyl Tap, Bachman takes his master story telling and voluminous musical knowledge on the road and leads fans on a guided journey that encapsulates the past 30 years of popular music presented by one of the greatest rock legends of our time. Songs include No Sugar Tonight, American Woman, No Time, Roll On Down the Highway, You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet, Hey You, Takin’ Care Business and more. Bachman-Turner Overdrive was recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame during the 2014 JUNO Awards in their hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Randy Bachman was a member of Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive. www.randybachman.com *** GLOBAL music stars Joel and Benji Madden, known for their band Good Charlotte, have just released the first single from their forthcoming The Madden Brothers album, Greetings From California (Universal) The single We Are Done is a soulful, 60s inspired tune that they wrote with highly acclaimed producer, Eric Valentine. There has been a phenomenal response to the single from fans and media alike. Having already earned a place in history with Good Charlotte’s radio-
By Gary Turner
ready pop-punk sound captured on such albums as their three-times US platinum (two-times platinum in Australia) breakthrough The Young and the Hopeless and more than 10 million combined sales from their five albums sold worldwide, Joel and Benji were eager to flex their creative muscles with an entirely new project. Good Charlotte is an American rock band from Waldorf, Maryland that formed in 1996. Since 1998, the band’s constant members have been lead vocalist Joel Madden, lead guitarist and back-up vocalist Benji Madden, bass guitarist Paul Thomas, and rhythm guitarist and keyboardist Billy Martin. Their latest drummer and percussionist is Dean Butterworth, who has been a member of the band since 2005. The band has released five studio albums: Good Charlotte (2000), The
Young and the Hopeless (2002), The Chronicles of Life and Death (2004), Good Morning Revival (2007), and Cardiology (2010), as well as two compilations: Greatest Remixes (2008) and Greatest Hits (2010). www.themaddenbrothers.com *** SHOCK Entertainment has released the DVD release of The Long Walk, 10 Years documentary and the Dreamtime at the G match between Essendon and Richmond. Released as a celebration of Australian indigenous culture, the DVD package will be available from 16 June. Celebrating the 10th anniversary of The Long Walk and Dreamtime, The Long Walk – 10 Years captures the inspiring story of Essendon champion Michael Long and his enduring journey to put the lives of indigenous Aus-
tralians back on the national agenda. The documentary reflects on Michael Long’s life, his stand against racism, his role pioneering the AFL’s racial discrimination code and the historic moment when he famously walked to Canberra to meet with then Prime Minister John Howard. The documentary includes interviews with Michael Long, John Howard, Tim Watson, James Hird, Kevin Sheedy, Nathan Lovett-Murray, Chris Long, Beverly Knight, Andrew Demetriou, Martin Flanagan and many more. www.shock.com.au *** SMOOTH FM and Sony Music has released a new 3CD set Music for Mum featuring 50 of the most popular songs from Smooth FM’s artists including classic smooth favourites
ing fellow. His facial glow suggests he just stepped out of a long shower, ever beaming. “Competition will ensure university fees will be kept down.” He cannot believe this, which gives the impression he thinks we are (to use Malcolm Turnbull’s word) demented. We were fed this line way back when our other free advice genius Jeff Kennett sold us on cheaper electricity etc due to competition. Never did it work then, never now. *** I COULD pay $200 a week rent on a Greek Island which includes daily cleaning, free wifi, breakfast and a pool with a balcony view of the Aegean Sea. This equates to free rent allowing for the savings of $150 a week on cigarettes, no water, electricity charges. My laptop would get the daily newspapers and everything else I need, and I can pay any bills via iphone. Mind you I’d miss the kids every so often, probably a good 5 minutes every month, but we all must make sacrifices. *** THE Yanks are into investigating software that can spot sarcasm on social media. Bad enough worrying about a knock on the door from the police as a result of forgotten misdeameanours without ASIO coming the knock knock. John Clarke (Clarke and Dawe) would be in trouble. Let’s hope the Yanks fail in this one. It’s those forgot-
ten years (20-30) I worry about. *** IS there such a thing as a third eye? One or two of my friends maintain the truth as to its existence. Haliburton, back in 1447 said: “An artist has more than two eyes.” Johnson said: “The two most engaging powers of an author is to make new things familiar, and familiar things new.” Perhaps all artists indeed have this third eye but, in fact, it’s surely about seeing things in a different light. After all, is there ever really anything new in human nature? *** WHERE are the train lines to Avalon, Doncaster and Rowville promised before the 2010 election? One example among many leading to the state elections for Daniel Andrews’ Labor Party, but the idea of Andrews’ push to expel Geoff Shaw was surely a stupid one? For misusing his car? You’ve kept your head down for almost four years Daniel. Don’t stuff it up now. *** OK. So I may have had a rough night but nevertheless, I draw out my weekly spending allowance from the hole in the wall ($15) and the lady behind says something about a warning to shield my pin number. I smiled (you can’t get blood out of a stone?) and started to walk away. Her male companion knowingly said to me: “We’re too old to worry about those things.” Speak
for yourself buddy! No doubt a Carlton supporter. As I approach the 10 year mark of living alone I’m coming to terms with the words of John Paul Satre “Hell is other people”. Well, many of them anyway. *** ROUND 11 of AFL football was the indigenous round; one assumes a celebration of the culture and indigenous contribution to AFL football. The Dreamtime game, stories of Michael Long, Nicky Winmar and teams wearing specially designed jumpers with an Aboriginal motive, hopefully adding to the battle of taking a stand on racism. On a cynical level, it pumps up attendances – money. A relatively big success for everyone’s benefit. Feelgood stories, including one on Liam Jurrah, currently serving a 12 week stint in an Alice Springs correctional centre for assaulting his partner. We’re all racist. A question of degree. *** I SUPPOSE if they keep repeating it people will eventually see it as a truism. Re: Independent schools have better teachers, get better academic results and teach better values, manners and morals. I would agree on the academic results, doubtful on the better teachers and the “better values, manners and morals” is 100 per cent pie in the sky nonsense. *** “THE Digital Edge” for the Herald-Sun
like From This Moment On by Shania Twain, Sailing by Christopher Cross, Come Away With Me by Norah Jones, A Touch of Paradise by John Farnham, and many more artists including Bette Midler, Bill Withers, Leo Sayer, Alicia Keys, Kelly Clarkson, Elvis Presley, REO Speedwagon, Bonnie Tyler, Annie Lennox and more. www.smoothfm.com.au *** FRANKSTON South resident and Former Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs drummer Gil Matthews (pictured left with yours truly) will front up as the drummer for Mondo Rock for the forthcoming Mondo Rock tour, Chemistry. The 150 minute show will feature the entire Chemistry album plus all the hits. Aztec Records has released Chemistry, the classic 1981 album, as a double CD digitally remastered by Gil Matthews and featuring rare B-sides, unreleased demos and an extra live disc. The CD also features a booklet with rare photos and inner notes by rock writer Ian McFarlane. Songs include Cool World, State of the Heart and Summer of 81. Mondo Rock will appear at the Palais Theatre, June 28. Tickets 136 100. www.aztecrecords.com.au *** THE movie Avatar is being transformed into an arena spectacular for Cirque du Soleil. Director James Cameron is on board to turn his sci-fi adventure fantasy into a live show that tours internationally. The show is expected to premiere overseas in 2015 before the release of the first of three Avatar sequels currently in pre-production. www.avatarmovie.com
A Grain of Salt MEANDERINGS: Depression is one of the dangers of old age according to my son, and he’s rarely wrong, so I remain wary of this unpredictable illness. I try sitting on my comfortable fence, reading. 25 years since the Tiananmen Square massacres, unsuspecting, unarmed. I think of the sheep drive to Iraq looking for mysterious hidden weapons, another sheep drive for the journey to Afghanistan in search of a bearded fellow and beyond, the Christmas Island Manus Island clashes. Detention facilities for “illegal maritime arrivals”? An abrogation of our responsibilities? Strong GDP results? I think of Scarlett O’Hara. “I’ll think about that tomorrow.” Maybe next week. Maybe Powerball. *** THE biased football scribes (Gerard Whateley, Robbo, Emma Quale), hungry for a Melbourne victory on the Queen’s Birthday, described the hard slog as “boring” but no different to Paul Roos’ early Sydney teams when he coached them to a premiership. It’s all about winning, boys and girls. Bruce McAveney, after St Kilda kicked a goal to lead Collinwood 19 to 8 on Friday 30 May said: “That’s not the start we expected, but I think we’re all pretty happy about it don’t you?” Not all of us Bruce. *** CHRISTOPHER Pyne is a funny look-

Blues show real fight against Rye
In tight and low: Rosebud managed to get over Frankston Bombers (above) while Hastings won against Rye (right) in weekend Nepean League fixtures. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt HASTINGS has moved into the top five after a sensational come from behind win against Rye at RJ Rowley Reserve on Saturday. Nine points down at the seven minute mark of the last quarter, Hastings piled on six of the last seven goals of the game to run away 23 point winners, 20.11 (131) to 17.6 (108). There has been wide criticism of this Hastings outfit and their inability to find a way when the chips are down. However, the Blues had their backs to the wall in the first and last quarters on Saturday and were able to fight their way back into the contest. This has now got to be the Hastings standard. Nothing short of the effort they displayed on the weekend should now be tolerated. The Blues again went into the game without star midfielder Daniel Wishart and 200-gamer Jason Kestle. The Demons got away to a flier, kicking the first three goals of the game before Hastings worked their way back into the contest to trail by just six points at the first change. The Blues were electric in the second quarter, kicking to the Melbourne Rd end, booting seven goals to three for the term. Grant Masterson booted three goals in the second and finished with a season-high six majors. Grant was at his best, leading hard, working hard, dangerous in the air and at ground level
and never missing an opportunity. Luke Hewitt was superb with four goals and is underrated by the opposition and his brother, Ryan, was damaging also. A number of Rye players tried to go with Justin Berry, but he was one of the best players on the ground with three goals, two of them rippers from the boundary line. Josh Mulheron was the difference between the sides. Whilst his opponent, Rye skipper Rhett Sutton was very good around the ground, Mulheron dominated at the stoppages and constantly gave his midfielders first use of the footy. Taylor Stratton was dangerous from half back and finished with two long goals, while Colin McVeigh continued his brilliant season. Down back, Brendan Dunne led from the front, leading and rebounding from the defensive zone, Steve Robb provided plenty of run and Michael Cave did what he was required to do in a stopper role against Ben WintersKerr. Lance Brouwer was sensational on the dangerous Aaron Findlay, beating him in the one on ones and restricting him to two goals. Hastings needed to play team footy for four quarters and that’s exactly what they did. It was the best performance seen from a Hastings outfit since the year they almost won the grand final. Every Hastings player was committed to the cause. The brand of footy the Blues played on the weekend
Taylor, which was a good move, but he didn’t always get it right coming out of defence, resulting in a couple of goals in the last quarter. It was a very entertaining game of footy, the most entertaining for the round. It was played at a furious pace, 37 goals were kicked, there were patches of brilliance from both sides and both are worthy finals contenders. The difference between the sides was one of them was willing to do anything for a teammate and the team to get the desired result and the other generally looked after themselves first. Crib Point’s Glenn Boyd booted eight goals in the first half and five majors in the second hour to finish with 13 of his side’s 22 against Tyabb. The Magpies had 55 (22.33) shots at goal to the Yabbies’ 13, winning 165 to 48. Dean Warry and Brad Arnold dominated in the win for the Pies. Rohan West and Justin Volk were the best of the Yabbies while Jake Anderson finished with two goals. Sorrento restricted Devon Meadows to just two scoring shots in the first three quarters on Saturday before going on to win 18.13 (121) to 4.2 (26). Leigh Poholke finished with nine goals for the Sharks to move to 45 for the season, while Ryan Williams and Leigh Treeby dominated. Jack Hazendonk was the best of the Panthers, while Ash Adams and Pat Harmes worked hard over four quarters. Dromana had little trouble beating
is capable of beating any side, including Dromana away from home this week. The same can’t be said for Rye. They play like individuals, not a team, and it was clearly evident. There was a lot of finger pointing going on between players, especially from those who are new to the club. Ryan Semmel, whilst terribly gifted, constantly gets himself into trouble for either over using the footy or looking for one of his brothers whenever he gets it. He gets it heaps of times and if he gave first option, Rye could have won the game. Make no mistake, when Ryan busts a pack and gets into open spaces, he looks as good as any player in the past 20 years in the comp. There’s a time though to listen to what’s going on around you and giving off the footy. Bad decision making and turnovers also cost the Demons in the heat of the battle. The Rye midfield was generally beaten and, to be frank, didn’t work hard enough or respect the opposition. They were unaccountable for the most part. Jake Semmel was clearly Rye’s best with two goals and he spent time running with Berry. Andrew Dean, a natural forward, was wasted on the wing or across half back. Jay Bruno worked tirelessly through the middle. Ben Holmes spent the second half down back to help Ryan

Somerville, restricting the Eagles to just one goal in the first three quarters before going on to win 23.16 (154) to 3.15 (33). Anthony Bruhn booted four goals for the winners while a further nine players contributed on the scoreboard. Callan Park played his best game since crossing from the Alberton League while Adam Coyle and Ash Waterstone were also amongst the best. Justin Farrelly was the best of the Eagles, along with Kane McKenzie and Jake Ryan. A seven goal third quarter saw Rosebud beat Frankston Bombers 16.11 (107) to 10.11 (71). Glen Peterson booted four goals in a near best on ground performance while Ryan Spooner and Jack Jarman dominated. Jay Reynolds booted three for the Bombers while skipper Jay Page collected the three votes. In the final game, much like Rosebud, Red Hill kicked seven goals in the third quarter to set up a 17.14 (116) to 13.10 (88) win over Pearcedale. Jarryd Eames booted four and Jarryd Douglas three for the Hillmen while Matt Hyden and Jake Mitchell dominated. Jamie McCall is also doing a sensational job for the Hillmen in the ruck and is in career-best form. Dean Janssen and Pat Cadd were the best of the Panthers while Pat Heijden kicked four goals.
WESTERN PORT scoreboard
Kangas slide continues after fifth loss in row PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt MT ELIZA has taken Langwarrin’s position in the top five after coming from behind to beat the visitors 11.18 (84) to 10.8 (68). The Kangaroos have now lost five matches in a row, all to the teams now in the top bracket. Coach Gavin Artico is entering new territory. He has never lost five matches on the trot in his coaching career. At three quarter time on Saturday, the visitors led by three points. However, whilst the Redlegs trailed, their use of the footy going forward wasn’t great and they squandered many opportunities. The home side finished with an additional 11 shots at goal. When a player needed to stand up in the last quarter for either side to win, it was best on ground Redlegs’ rover Rohan Heasley who stepped up to the plate. He booted two goals in the final term and finished the afternoon with three, while Scott Lockwood made it 10 majors in two weeks with another four. Darren Booth played his best game since returning to his home club from Rye and Mark Wilson finished with a couple of goals in a solid display. The Kangas just can’t afford injuries and they again went into the match without their best forward, Matt Dimkos. Running defender Jarryd Amalfi was also hospitalised. Sean Herdman was very good for the visitors with three goals and Dylan
Luxa and Michael Parker played well. The Kangas are a light side and as predicted at the beginning of the season, need everything to go right before they can challenge for a place in the top five. Whilst the configuration of the top five may change, the sides in it won’t. In the other big game on the weekend, Bonbeach booted seven goals to three in the third quarter to set-up a 32-point win against Mornington. The Sharks kicked 10 goals to six in the second half after going into the halftime break with only a five-point lead. Shane McDonald was the best player on the ground with three goals for the Sharks while Justin Bennett booted three also. Jason Ferraro and Anthony Raso were dominated around the ground and Dylan Jones continues to dominate in the ruck. Jai Haddock was the best of the Doggies, along with Barry Smeeton and Emilio Bitters. The Doggies have now lost two games on the trot after going on a seven-game winning streak. Three weeks ago the Doggies were a game clear on top of the ladder. They now sit in fourth, a game clear of Mt Eliza and a game off top spot. Top spot is being occupied by Frankston YCW after they recorded a 16.14 (110) to 5.7 (37) win against Karingal. The Stonecats kicked seven goals to zip in the opening quarter and it appeared as though it was going to be a long day for the home side. However, the Bulls booted five goals
to nine in the second half. They booted five goals to six in the second and third quarters. David Bodley booted six majors for the Stonecats while Byron Barry and Tony Lester dominated. Tom Matthews was Karingal’s best, along with Tom Wilkinson and George Angelopolous. Chelsea led Pines by 25 points at half time on Saturday. They still held a four point lead at three quarter time. However, the Pythons, led by Beau Hendry and Jamie Messina (three goals), kicked four goals to one in the last to win 14.11 (95) to 12.12 (84). In the week that Pines coach Steve Ryan declared he was stepping down as coach at season’s end, his charges found something when it mattered most. Guy Hendry booted four goals and was one of his team’s best and Shaun White, whilst he didn’t dominate the scoreboard, was outstanding. Brad and Jason Clark were the best of the Gulls. Edithvale-Aspendale booted seven goals to one in the final quarter against Seaford to win 15.7 (97) to 9.8 (62). The reigning premiers trailed by 19 points at quarter time, by 25 points at half time and by two points at the last change. However, Brad Tagg and Jarrod Garth rose to the occasion in the last, finished with five goals each and with Brad Gilder and Matt Kremmer dominating, were able to get the job done. Dean Kemble and Luke Smith with three goals were the best of the Tigers.
Ryan quits, gives Pines backing for new coach to kick club on By Toe Punt PINES coach Steve Ryan has told the club to find themselves a playing coach for season 2015. The former Rye premiership coach is in his third season at the helm of the Pythons, however, he believes the club needs to find new blood for next season. Ryan made it clear that if the club couldn’t find what they were looking for, he was more than happy to coach them again next season. “Football is about football clubs, not individuals,” Ryan said. “I still want to coach and I believe I still have plenty to offer, however, with the way the Pines Football Club is at the moment, they need to go out and get another onfield leader. “I think a captain coach would be fantastic for the club. “It allows the club to invest in a good player, who can also lead the club. “We are so close as a club to playing finals football and all we need is a couple of good recruits. We have all the foundations. “We have arguably the best

Blues play finals style footy HASTINGS FNC By Phil Stone Seniors: This week was always going to be a massive test for us. Rye were above us on the ladder and we had not won a game away from home all year. We started the game slow and Rye jumped us but once we settled in we got back to within one goal at quarter time. The second quarter we really wanted to up our pressure and that is exactly what we did. Our second quarter ball movement was great and the pressure was super having over 20 tackles for the quarter. This intensity saw us to going in at half time in front. The second half was a big arm wrestle and both sides were playing hard and tough football. The scores ended up level at the last break and we had a big test coming up in the final quarter. When Rye got two goals up in the last quarter it could have gone either way. Would we would grit our teeth and get back into the game or we would drop our heads? The character we showed when challenged in the last was outstanding and it was great to see us respond and get a win away from home. It was a fantastic game by all but some special mentions go to Mully who was fantastic in the ruck and Grant who kicked six, Luke Hewitt four, and Berry and Mcveigh who really stood up when we needed them. Reserves:We travelled down to Rye to try and get ourselves back on the winners list in what turned out to be a very tight contest from the first bounce. Rye jumped out of the blocks early and got away from us in the first quarter applying enormous pressure on us to be a few goals up. The boys responded well in the second quarter with some great free
flowing football and A.Vinson looking dangerous up forward kicking a couple of goals. In the third quarter there was nothing in it and the young team was playing desperate football with C. Lehmann and D. Lehmann putting there bodies on the line around the packs and winning the tight contested football. A.Harrison was having one of his best games of the year using his pace to break lines all over the ground with his ability to run and carry with several bounces when he had the footy in hand. At three quarter time we were a couple goals down and the boys were trying hard to get back into the game. In the end Rye were just that bit better around the stoppages. That hurt us, and in conjunction with the slow start was probably what cost us the most. The effort was there all day but Rye were just a bit better in the tight tussle and came out on top. Under 18s: (Report by Aaron Wilson) Round 9, Tyabb-Hastings travelled down to Rye on a mission to get the 3rd win of the season and 2nd in a row. Forty-seven points victors in the end, bottom placed Rye didn’t go down without a fight. A five goal first quarter (all kicked by Jayden Regan) by Tyabb-Hastings saw them kick away to a 28 point lead. Tyabb-Hasting moved the ball swiftly out of the middle as a huge blow-out was on the cards. But, credit to Rye, they stayed in the contest as their second quarter produced three goals, pegging the margin back to 19 points. At the half time break, TyabbHastings reset and made a couple of structural changes to get momentum back in their favour.
facilities of any club in the competition, financially the club is ain a strong position and we have a proud and passionate playing list and supporter base. “I believe the Pines Football Club is a sensational opportunity for someone who wants to take the next step and coach a side.” Ryan said it was important to tell the club as soon as possible. “The club now has 10 weeks before any other club to start looking at what’s around. It gives them a chance to go and watch other games and see who might be worthwhile to target. “If I told the club at the end of the season, they don’t get that opportunity,” Ryan said. Langwarrin did the same thing in 2004. It observed football matches of other clubs and watched and listened to who the onfield leaders were. At the time, Frankston YCW had a defender by the name of Gavin Artico. He was appointed at the end of the 2004 season and won the flag with the Kangas the following season. He is now a two-time premiership coach at two clubs.
A five goal blitz in the 3rd term saw the away side kick out to a sizable lead at three quarter time. The last quarter was even in terms of scoring as Rye refused to give in, a tough game physically for both sides. It was the leaders and experienced players that stood up. Logan Pearson, Wade De La Haye, Stephen Williams lead the from front. They put their bodies on the line and used their class and skill to give Tyabb-Hastings their 3rd win, while full forward Jayden Regan (sitting atop of the league goal kicking) bagged nine goals. Tyabb-Hastings play a strong Sorrento outfit next game as players and coaches strive for a chance to play finals Netball:It was always set to be a tough day of netball heading down to Rye. They are strong and experienced across all grades. C Grade are trying hard every week and a ‘never give up’ attitude is a credit to the girls. A couple of the girls had a chance to play out of position and give new ones a try which had unearthed some new combinations. B Grade had some great patches of play. They are starting to combine well as a team. The scoreline certainly doesn’t reflect how much of the ball and the play we had. A Grade put up a great fight, if only we could keep up the intensity of our first quarter throughout the game we would be right up there. We had plenty of the play and showed great tenacity. Coaches awards this week: C grade - Brooke Easy & Jess Reid B grade - Heaven Hansen & Zara Haycroft A grade - Shaye William & Ebony Clark
Crib Point have a ball CRIB POINT FNC
By Jared Newton SATURDAY against Tyabb was not a game Crib Point could afford to take lightly. Every win and percentage point is going to count so any lapse was likely to be punished. Crib Point learned the lessons from Pearcedale a few weeks earlier and started strongly to pile on 7.6 in the first quarter to assert their dominance before skipping out to an 84 point lead at half time. Inaccurate kicking was again an issue for the Pies as they finished the afternoon with 55 scoring shots to be 22.33 (165). Despite the misses in front of goal, the dominance in scoring and inside 50s is a good sign for the Magpies who have piled on 80 scoring shots in their last two games with 25-13 and 55-13 against their opposition. Glen Boyd had his breakout game with Crib Point slotting 13 goals. Every time the ball went near him he always looked like he was going to get it. Luke Herrington had plenty of possessions but kicked a wayward 2.10. Off half back Dean Warry gave plenty of drive and Brad Arnold dominated through the middle. At the half way mark the Magpies are 7-2 sitting 3rd with Sorrento breathing down their neck in 4th place. There’s some tough games ahead but the teams destiny in solely in its own hands and that’s how you would want it to be. The Crib Point ressies shrugged their disappointment from the previous week off with a thumping 88 point win over the Yabbies. The Reserves came to play from
the start and played an overwhelmingly positive, attacking game with winners across the park. Michael Cook was best afield with a 30 possession, 2 goal effortthe dominance got to his head in the 3rd quarter when he tried to have a shot at goal from 50 metres out only for it fall 25 metres short, but that aside he was at his best through the middle. Dan Beech was also solid at Centre Half Back and his brother Tim put in his best performance for the year with quite a few possies as well as dominating the ruck. At the halfway mark the ressies sit 5-4 and in 7th spot outside the 5 on percentage. A lot of hard work is ahead of them but again the destiny lies in their own hands. The under 18s put in three solid quarters only to be overrun by Mount Eliza at the Yabby pond in the early game. To be 2 goals down at 3 quarter time and end up losing by 58 points is a disappointing result but again improvement is being shown as the boys are hanging in for games far longer than they were earlier in the season. Jayden Deas was best afield for the unders and looked a class above and Zac Vines looks a worthy replacement for Jim Cook in several years. At 1-8 at the halfway mark it’s been a tough slog, but the big losses of the early rounds seem to be behind them. If they can keep on the track for the 2nd half and keep showing up, winning 2-3 of their last 9 games is a realistic option with many of the 1st year players able to head into their 2nd year of 18s with confidence in 2015.
