Line call after gates glitch Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au TRAINS have been pulled from the Stony Point line after boom gates malfunctioned three times.

Metro has been forced to mothball single-car sprinter services after boom gates opened while trains were nearby.

Drivers reported level crossing barriers separating the train line from road users and pedestrians swung open while trains were picking up passengers at stations on three occasions in June and July.

The first fault was reported on 6 June and boom gates malfunctioned again on 20 June and 14 July. Metro advised one of the incidents occurred between Frankston and Baxter and boom gates swung open twice at Crib Point when they were not supposed to.

The Crib Point boom gate was the first to swing open when a train was in the vicinity and malfunctioned again on 14 July.

Metro spokeswoman Larisa Tait said pedestrians or road users had never been in any danger of being struck by a train when the boom gates malfunctioned.

“Each time, the driver immediately reported the fault to Metro train control, and the service has either been cancelled on the spot, or continued with extreme caution after the boom gates came down with the service terminating at the end of the line.”

Ms Tait said trains had been stationary at station platforms each time the boom gates had swung open.

“There have not been any instances where a train has travelled through a level crossing with the booms in the up position, and there has never been any risk of collision with cars or pedestrians when a train has proceeded at

extreme caution,” she said.

“A driver is only able to proceed through a level crossing when the booms are in the down position.”

Metro issued an internal alert to train drivers to proceed with caution along the Stony Point line while the cause of the boom gates malfunction is being investigated.

The level crossing barriers swung open when single-car sprinter trains operated by V/Line were on the Stony Point line so Metro decided to cancel all single-car services as a precautionary measure. Two-car sprinters remain in service.

As a result, three weekday services have been cancelled and replaced with buses until at least the end of September: the 5.41am Stony Point to Frankston, 11.04am Stony Point to Frankston and the 6.35pm Frankston to Stony Point services.

Boom gates were installed at every intersection along the Stony Point line after 32-year-old preschool teacher Kay Stanley was killed when she drove through a Tyabb level crossing in 2008.

A coroner’s inquest in 2012 found Ms Stanley drove past warning lights before colliding with a two-carriage train then operated by Connex.

Crime up, assaults down Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au

able people by targeting those responsible.

“Focus on prevention can be valuable in this area. By listening to our victims, we will be able to determine how best we can support them,” she said.

“Referrals, case conferences, investigation updates and prosecutorial support are some of the areas where we can build confidence and resilience in our victims.”

The behaviour of repeat offenders will be a particular focus for police to protect victims.

While assaults in general fell from 1051 in 2012-13 to 1046 in 2013-14, reported family violence incidents rose slightly from 489 to 496.

Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Ken Lay said the reporting of family violence to police had greatly increased in recent years.

He said police responded to 65,000 reported incidents across Victoria in 2013-14 but said it was a positive that people felt they could report such cases and expect action to be taken.

“It puts enormous pressure on our figures but I think it’s a very good thing,” he said.

About 30,000 charges were laid as a result of the 65,000 reported family violence incidents, according to Mr Lay. He also noted an increase in the reporting of “historical sexual assault offences” and said this may be due to recent high-profile cases and recent public enquiries into sexual abuse.

He said 40 per cent of sexual assaults reported in the past 12 months were of a historical nature.

“I am pleased to say these victims are putting their trust in Victoria Police and bringing it to our notice,” he said.

“We are investigating and charging people.”

Crime is set to become a political battlefront in the lead-up to November’s state election.

Both the Coalition and Labor have pledged to “get tough” on dealers of the drug ice, with Labor vowing anyone caught supplying the drug to school students will face up to 20 years in jail.

CRIME across the Mornington Peninsula jumped 10.9 per cent over the past 12 months – much higher than the 3.7 per cent increase for Victoria as a whole – with drug offences, robbery and thefts from vehicles leading the way.

Victoria Police statistics released last week for the year 2013-14 to 30 June reveal drug offences were up 8.3 per cent compared to the previous year, from 377 to 412 incidents.

Percentage changes are calculated as a rate per 100,000 people to give a uniform snapshot of crime across all regions.

Thefts from vehicles surged 20.2 per cent, to 1188 reported offences in 2013-14 and vehicle thefts were up 31.8 per cent to 318.

Mornington Peninsula Local Area Commander Karen Nyholm said the “crimes against property” category showed “a disappointing result”.

“Police have dedicated resourcing in these areas, and whilst making numerous arrests, still are yet to impact the prevalence of this crime in our community,” she said.

“You can greatly diminish the chances of being a victim of these types of crime by taking simple precautionary actions – securing your home, locking your car and removing valuables.”

Residential burglaries were up an alarming 12.2 per cent, from 665 in 2012-13 to 746 in 2013-14.

Inspector Nyholm was “pleased” that crimes against the person, including robberies and assaults, fell 5.6 per cent from 1356 in 2012-13 to 1280.

Ms Nyholm said: “A continued focus by police on both family violence and non-family violence incidents has resulted in fewer victims, less injuries and improved safety for individuals and the overall community.”

She said “one victim is too many” and police will commit to further work to protect vulner-

Another life lost: Police survey the wreckage of a Holden Commodore station wagon at the intersection of Shands Rd and Mornington-Flinders Rd where a 27-year-old woman died on Sunday. Picture: Gary Sissons

Woman dies in Main Ridge crash A 27-year-old woman died when the car she was travelling in collided with a ute at Main Ridge on Sunday.

The woman, from East Melbourne, was the front seat passenger in a Holden Commodore station wagon which collided with a Toyota ute at the intersection of Shands and Mornington-Flinders roads about 11.30am.

Police said the crash appeared to have occurred when the station wagon travelling along Shands Rd crossed through the intersection into the path of the ute on Mornington-Flinders Rd. The male driver of the station wagon suffered minor injuries and was taken to Frankston Hospital.

The P-plated driver of the ute was taken to Rosebud Hospital for observation and is assisting police with their inquiries.

Major collision investigation unit detectives, who attended the crash scene on Sunday afternoon, are looking into the cause of the incident.

The woman’s death ended a horror weekend on Victorian roads, with four lives lost.

The state’s road toll stands at 167 so far this year, 11 more fatalities than the same period last year.

Later that night, a man and woman were lucky not to have been added to death toll after the car they were travelling in crashed into a pole at McRae. The male driver, aged in his 20s, and female passenger, aged in her 30s, were seriously injured in the crash on Point Nepean Rd about 12.30am.

Rescue crews worked for about an hour to release the pair from the wreckage of their vehicle.

They were both airlifted to The Alfred hospital.

Call for government protection of the bay Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au ENVIRONMENT groups are calling on Flinders MP Greg Hunt to make sure the state government is not given a free hand to approve expansion of the Port of Hastings.

However, Mr Hunt, who is also environment minister, says any proposal “would have to be assessed by what is likely to be one of Australia’s most comprehensive environmental impact statements”.

“At this stage there is no actual proposal to assess. In the meantime I have offered to work with the State on a new Shapiro report. I think this could be a powerful, long-term assessment of the future of Western Port,” Mr Hunt said in a statement.

The mid-1970s environmental study of Western Port by M A Shapiro provided baseline data on the mangrove and salt marsh vegetation of the whole bay.

In calling for a new report, Mr Hunt is restating a speech he made to parliament in October 2010, criticising the lack of action in Western Port by the then Labor state and federal governments.

The current state government has appointed the Port of Hastings Development Authority to plan the establishment of a major container port at hastings which will require extensive dredging.

“I would also note that there is a real and immediate threat to Western Port in terms of sediment flowing into the northern half of the bay, which we

Landlines: Road and rail routes from Hastings across Melbourne are shown in this map in the Victoria the Freight State report.

would be very keen to work with the community to resolve,” Mr Hunt said last week in response to the groups calling on him to “protect Western Port bay from flawed major projects process”.

Mr Hunt said it was “a little curious” that the groups were “silent about the ALP’s [Bay West] proposal for Australia’s largest dredging proposal in 30

years in Port Phillip Bay”.

“This would also have to be assessed under federal law. If either the ALP’s largest dredge in 30 years, or any Western Port proposal is to be formally submitted, either will have to be fully assessed under federal law.”

The groups calling on Mr Hunt to intervene in Western Port are the Victorian National Parks Associa-

tion, Environmental Justice Australia, Preserve Western Port Action Group, Westernport and Peninsula Protection Council, Blue Wedges Coalition and French Island Port Stoppers.

“The massive Hastings port expansion plan and associated land transport corridors will not only devastate the internationally important Ramsarlisted wetlands of Western Port, but also impact on the liveability of Melbourne’s south-eastern suburbs,” the groups’ news release stated.

“The Napthine government wants to push through its expansion plans under the Major Transport Projects Facilitation Act 2009 – the same fasttrack process that approved the East West Link project, which is about to face a Supreme Court challenge,” Ariane Wilkinson, a lawyer at Environmental Justice Australia, said.

“The only way Victorians can prevent the destruction of this protected wetland, home to many threatened species, is by appealing for Greg Hunt to intervene under federal environmental laws. Yet even this avenue of last resort is under threat from the federal government’s one stop shop policy.

“If the one stop shop policy is implemented, Minister Hunt can simply hand over his powers for this project to the Victorian government.

“The Victorian government has a clear conflict of interest in this project as both the proponents and regulators.”

Ms Wilkinson said the group had no confidence that Victoria’s major projects legislation will protect the West-

BETTER THAN SOCKS

ern Port environment.

“The Victorian government has a clear conflict of interest in this project as both the proponents and regulators,” she said.

“And just like with the East West Link project, the road and rail connections to an expanded port will be assessed by this major projects legislation, which will be a real concern to communities along the transport corridor.”

Victorian National Parks Association marine and coastal projects officer Simon Branigan said the government’s Victorian Freight and Logistics Plan showed the need for a rail transport corridor from Dandenong running through the middle of suburbs such as Caulfield, Toorak and Richmond, “potentially requiring compulsory acquisitions”.

“All this for a project that is an environmental disaster in waiting,” he said.

“Oil spill modelling shows that even a relatively minor oil spill would spread quickly throughout the bay, threatening fish, penguins and the beautiful beaches between Somers and Flinders.

“Under the one stop shop, the approval of the Hastings port expansion will be a fait accompli.”

Jeff Nottle, chairman and spokesperson for Preserve Western Port Action Group, said expanding the port “threatens our $600 million tourism industry and the 5000 jobs that rely on that industry”.

“This is Greg Hunt’s electorate. He can’t turn his back on the livelihood of his constituents or the importance of the Ramsar wetland.”

The station – on the Stony Point line – opened in 1889 and, as reported in Mornington Peninsula Railways and their Communities, contributed significantly to the town and district’s population growth.

The first station master, Ernest Charles Blazey, might have empathised with the first passengers shivering in the cold and longing for the warmth of a waiting room, still some years away.

Within months of the railway service opening, land in the area was subdivided and offered for sale.

The railway siding that serviced the Hastings Cooperative Cool Store was a busy place.

The expanded fishing industry packed its catch in ice there and despatched it quickly to the Melbourne Fish Market in iced T wagons. Milk and cream were despatched to butter and dairy factories and fresh fruit chilled and sent off to market.

The station played a significant role in the development of the oil refineries at Long Island Point in the mid-1960s.

Workers poured in to build the BP depot and Crib Point and Esso at Long Island Point.

A huge gantry crane was erected at the station yard to unload the thousands of tonnes of materials and equipment railed in. Large numbers of pipes were unloaded for gas and WAG pipelines, and equipment for Cresco Fertilisers and the booming Lysaght Steelworks.

The town grew, and so did passenger and parcel traffic.

Now, the view from the station is a world away from the rural backwater of 1889 but access roads are still rough and potholed – much like they were when early settlers petitioned the government for the railway all those years ago.

Hosking calls for Tyabb traffic fix TRAFFIC “chaos” near the Tyabb Primary School and Flinders Christian College needs fixing after four years of inaction, according to Labor candidate for Hastings Steve Hosking.

Last week he visited the intersections of Mornington-Tyabb, Jones and Boes roads with Labor’s roads spokesman Luke Donnellan to highlight the dangers and call on the state government to act.

“Local residents and the school communities of Tyabb Primary and Flinders Christian College have been waiting for years with no action,” Mr Donnellan said.

He criticised the government for “failing to provide a fix to the solution of traffic banking up outside both schools”.

“Neale Burgess and Education Minister Martin Dixon have visited the site and seen the problems first hand, but they have failed to do anything for four years.”

Mr Hosking, who is standing against Liberal Mr Burgess, said congestion needed to be reduced and safety improved for motorists and school children. “We have cars banking up at peak times, and other frustrated motorists making illegal manoeuvres along Mornington-Tyabb and Jones roads to avoid the chaos.”

Mr Hosking said lanes needed to be widened or a turning lane added outside Flinders Christian College, and more

parking made available for parents outside Tyabb Primary. “We have parents parking up Jones Rd banking up traffic through the roundabout causing a real hazard to school kids and other motorists,” he said.

Mr Hosking said more options needed to be made available for parents to safely pick up their children from both schools.

Money for intersection SOMERVILLE will benefit from $248,000 being spent at the intersection of Frankston-Flinders Rd, Peter Kent Drive and Deanswood Drive, Hastings MP Neale Burgess says.

Work is expected to start late this year and be completed early next year.

Mr Burgess said there had been two serious injury crashes at the intersection in the five years to last December.

“These changes make it safer for people turning in or out of Peter Kent Drive and Deanswood Drive to Frankston-Flinders Rd,” he said.

“Drivers going through the area will benefit from improved street lighting, better signage, line marking and concrete traffic islands.

These improvements will make the intersection more visible and also improve visibility of oncoming traffic.

Artistry delivered inside the box THE humble pizza box will rise to new artistic heights next week in Oak Hill Gallery’s Pizza Box challenge.

It is all part of the Hasting’s gallery’s efforts to raise public awareness of itself – as a not-for-profit charity and the town’s “arts precinct”.

Gallery director Yvonne Watson reporting that “50 or 60” pizza boxes had already been collected to be made into art works with more likely to go out in the lead up to the judging on Friday 5 September.

Those participating will design and create art works such as collages, sculptures or paintings inside the boxes which will then be assessed and hung for display at the gallery at 3/145 Salmon St. The first prize is a $100 voucher from Southern Buoy arts supplies.

The gallery is part of the Pop Up Hastings – Renew Hastings Project which aims to bring new life to the bottom end of town.

“This is a chance for local artists

to flex their artistic muscles with any creation that fits inside a pizza box,” Ms Watson said. “It is intended to be fun, and also an opportunity to create artworks within unique design parameters.”

Those attending the Pizza Box Challenge judging, from 6-8pm, will be able to enjoy a drink and – you guessed it – eat pizza. Entry is adults $15, concession $10, and secondary/primary students $5. Call: 0413317174.

Whales cop an eyeful in annual bays visit AN increase in sightings of whales in Port Phillip and Western Port is consistent with the recovery of the whale populations since the end of commercial whaling.

“We think that the humpback whales we see in Port Phillip are having a break from their migration between Antarctic feeding grounds and their mating and birthing areas off Queensland,” Dolphin Research Institute executive officer Jeff Weir said on Friday.

“We don't really know why they come into the bay. One suggestion is that if they swim up Tasmania's west coast on their northern trek the shape of Victoria tends to funnel them near the bays. Perhaps they literally go with the flow if they are caught in a flooding tide at the Heads.”

Mr Weir’s comments followed a close encounter off Mornington between water police and a humpback whale.

Police were called to the coast off Mornington last Friday morning following reports of a whale in the area when the frisky adolescent suddenly surfaced right beside them.

The eight-metre giant then proceeded to “flirt” with the vessel while inquisitively studying the police members on board during the prolonged interaction, which lasted more than 15 minutes .

The whale playfully rolled on its back and repeatedly breached alongside the police vessel, thrusting itself vertically more than three metres above the waves.

Police described the encounter as a

Romantic encounter: Leading Senior Constable Dean Kelly captured these images of the juvenile humpback whale with his camera phone in Port Phillip off Mornington.

“once in a lifetime experience”.

“May usually marks our first sightings of whales near Port Phillip and Western Port on their northerly migration and we often see them again in September to October on their way back to Antarctica,” Mr Weir said.

“We also get southern right whales in our bays around a similar time as they migrate to our southern coast to mate and give birth in places further west, like Warrambool and the Great Australian Bight.”

Mr Weir said sightings at other times had led to speculation that some humpbacks remain in southern waters, perhaps sub-adults, not completing the

full migration to the tropics.

“Competing sub-adult humpback bulls were observed fighting for dominance near Mt Martha by institute scientists two years ago. Imagine five animals the size of tourist coaches playing underwater demolition derby and leaving blood and skin on the water.

“You don't want to be anywhere near in a small boat.

“Killer whales are common off the coast - and inside the bays - during cooler months and over summer pygmy blue whales come to our coast to feed.”

Senior Sergeant Lachlan Holding said police headed to the area

following a report of the whale from theHastings-based dolphin institute.

“Our members stopped a few hundred metres away as to not disturb the whale,” he said.

“They turned their engines off to minimise noise and vibrations and that is when the whale swam over.

“The whale was surfacing for about 30 seconds every five minutes. It was rolling over onto its back.

“We think it may have confused our boat with another whale and that is why it was being so friendly.”

The whale appeared to be following a school of bait fish as it headed up the bay towards Frankston. It was

later joined by a pod of about 15 dolphins and a seal off Mornington Harbour.

Leading Senior Constable Dean Kelly said the encounter highlighted the healthy condition of Port Phillip.

He said he had seen whales in the bay several times over his eight years with the water police, but never at such close quarters.

“It was an amazing experience, the highlight of my career, and something we’ll obviously never forget,” he said.

“I think from his behaviour the whale was flirting with our vessel, believing the white hull was the underside of a possible mate as he rolled over several times to expose his underside. He was really checking us out, eyeballing us with this huge eye, and you could sense it intelligence.”

In June, a rare sub-adult southern right whale was spotted 200 metres off Bonbeach, Chelsea and Aspendale, before swimming within 15 metres of Frankston Pier. Several days later, a pair of humpbacks was spotted off the coast of Sorrento.

Leading Senior Constable Kelly said that while his encounter with the whale was a great moment, he would not encourage members of the public to seek out a similar experience.

“There are strict regulations around how close boats and jet skis can get to marine life. It is for the safety of both the people and the animals,” he said.

Recreational boats must stay 200m away from whales and 100m from dolphins, while jet skis must stay 300m away from all marine life.

THIS was The Moment, especially for residents of Red Hill ward. Effectively disenfranchised since former councillor Frank Martin fell ill in December 2013, we hinterland wardies were keen to see new man Tim Wood, declared byelection winner on Saturday, sworn in and taking his seat at the council table.

Word was that the induction was not to occur until 8 September, but councillor-elect Wood is a man in a hurry. He was all set to take the oath of office after the formal declaration of the poll earlier in the day.

No impediment stood in his path. He could well have had a Bible in his pocket to ensure the oath could be administered post haste.

But The Moment had to wait until a little after 7pm. CW thought he detected tension in the ceremony, in what appeared the perfunctory handshake between new councillor and CEO Michael Kennedy, in the slightly strained smiles for the camera recording the start of this new epoch.

Mayor Antonella Celi invited now-councillor Wood to give “a little bit of a welcome speech, or a word of thanks … say something?” before he took his seat. They were the words of a man at ease with public speaking. And his last words for his first meeting; a retired judge he might be, but of course a tyro in this chamber. For tonight, a listener.

Councillor seating had altered since Frank

Martin was last in the chamber. Cr Wood was placed between fellow naval man Cr David Garnock and veteran councillor Anne Shaw, possibly to have her experience at his left elbow.

She is famed for her Part Bs. CW thinks he can recall one Part C. His first procedural moment came early, when Cr Celi dealt with Item 2.3, confirmation of the minutes of the last council meeting. “Anyone against,” she asked. “All those in favour; all those in favour? Cr Wood? Are you in favour or against? Show of hands. Thank you.”

CW could not see if Cr Wood raised his hand for the vote. Was the new man abstaining? He was not – of course – at the previous council meeting and thus – of course – could vote neither for nor against the minutes of a meeting he had not attended. Such trifles are known as slips that pass in the night.

Then, the meeting. Something was different this evening: councillors were coming through the speakers loud and clear, apart from one or two who occasionally forgot to turn on their microphones.

That was it! The sound system was working, and it looked different. Was it new, a replacement for the more modern-looking mikes that regularly sputtered to a halt? Apparently not; rather, it was old but reliable, rather like many of those listening attentively in the gallery.

Piggy bank appeal THE annual Very Special Kids Piggy Bank Appeal kicks off at Frankston RSL on Friday before continuing across the peninsula.

PLACES are still available at Boxing @ the hub. The free sessions build fitness and offer participants the benefits of general wellbeing and personal development, including advice on nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices.

Experienced boxers Jimmy Cargill and Brian Grant will run the sessions for young people aged 12-18 from the Hastings area on Tuesdays from 4-5.30pm.

The wellbeing sessions are run by the Mornington Peninsula Shire’s youth services team with outside help. Hastings police will also have a presence.

Boxing offers a range of benefits as well as fitness. It encourages inter-generational interaction and positive role modelling, enhances respect and resilience, provides team-building activities, creates an awareness of local support

services and agencies, strengthens relationships between young people and police, and boosts community belonging and positive social involvement.

“Mornington Peninsula Shire is passionate about providing support, referral and advocacy for all young people on the peninsula,” mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said.

“Staff members provide a broad range of personal development programs and are committed to restarting the former boxing program previously run by Blue Light.”

As well as Hastings police, Hastings Community Alliance and Rotary Club of Hastings Western Port are keen supporters.

LETTERS Rethink the port I refer to [Nepean MP] Martin Dixon's letter (‘Bay destruction’, The News 26/8/14). His description of the destruction of Port Phillip is apt and relevant. Further dredging would be catastrophic, and would not necessarily allow larger ships to enter the bay.

However, Mr Dixon then goes on to say that all is well because Western Port, a [internationally-recognised] Ramsar site of ecological significance, is fine as a port because it has natural deep water channels. Rubbish.

According to the Lloyds of London Ports Guide, Western Port has a dredged approach channel maintained at 14.3 metres and one berth with an alongside depth of 15.8 metres for the export of crude oil. Other existing berths are limited to 9.2 metres and maximum ship size of 200 metres.

Port of Hastings development documents clearly state that: “Significant dredging has been proposed just to establish the wharf. Areas of 1.5 kilometres to more than 4km long and 600 to 700 metres wide … potential dredging areas.”

Victoria University has published a document [Build it – but will they come?] that states that the proposed water depth at the Port of Hastings would be sufficient to allow vessels with a draft of 16 metres to berth at any time. Given that all other ports on the southern Australian seaboard have a maximum depth of 14.7 metres (Fremantle), and most are much less, it is unlikely that larger vessels will come this way at all.

Recently, Australia scored poorly in energy efficiency of its transport systems compared to other major economies, including the US, China and Brazil, according to the American Council for an Energy-Efficient

Economy. The survey also found that Australia is trending backwards because of its continuing and increasing investment in roads, a planned major spinoff from the Hastings port redevelopment.

Australia received high marks in the “energy intensity of freight transport”, assisted by the very high efficiency of iron ore railroads in Western Australia.

This clearly points to a more energy efficient transport solution than giant container ships trying to berth in Melbourne, then containers being shipped all over the place by road.

A national freight strategy is required utilising coastal vessels and interstate rail. More Melbourne ports are not the answer and politicians on both sides should quietly shelve their grand parochial port plans and tell the privately-owned port authorities to seek new efficiencies elsewhere in their pursuit of profits.

Mr Dixon's comments that we all should all vote Liberal should have read: "A vote for (Liberals) in this year's state election is a vote for an unprecedented dredge of (Wester Port), a massive impact on a marine area of international significance, devastation of large parts of the bay and a massive increase in road freight traffic pollution cutting right through the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne.”

Servo shock We were recently shocked to discover that the digging you can see near Peninsula Link in the green wedge area just over the Balcombe Creek bridge near Baxter is in fact for the first of two service stations.

When we inquired, we were told that, although Mornington Peninsula Shire had opposed them and VCAT had opposed them, Planning Minister

also created good farmland.

CSIRO figures show that up to 60,000 tonnes of silt comes down the drains every year which increases the turbidity letting less sunlight through to seabed flora and fauna and also smothers it, especially seagrass, and everything that lives on and in it.

If you don’t believe it stop on the South Gippsland Highway at any of the “creek” drain bridges and look at the colour of the water. On a windy day at high water drive down to the foreshore of one of the coastal villages in the east arm and look, Grantville Jetty is probably the easiest as you don’t have to get out of your car to see the colour of the water, even the “white caps” are dirty with suspended sediment.

Another area from which sediment is derived, a third of the total coming down the drains according to CSIRO, is from coastal erosion in the east arm mainly in the Lang Lang area but increasingly further south where there are no mangroves protecting the coastline.

Western Port Seagrass Partnership read the research 12 years ago and realised it could start doing something about the erosion. The coastline has many “managers” and a lot of it is in private hands. Through the fantastic efforts of Dr Tim Ealey (Dr Mangrove to the schoolkids) and after many years of experimenting with planting mangroves results are starting to happen, even with the lack of funding and volunteers plus the ignorant vandals and locals pulling out mangroves grown and planted by many schools from around Western Port.

What can be done about the silt coming down the drains? Melbourne Water has a problem, blocking them or slowing the flow will cause flooding across miles of highly valuable farmland. It is trying to do what it can with flood retaining basins and has

Matthew Guy had overruled them both, on the request of Transport Minister Terry Mulder.

We were completely unaware of these planned developments and were not consulted, despite it being in the catchment of the Balcombe Creek.

The developments are subject to environmental management plans.

While we cannot stop the development now, we are seeking to ensure that sufficient revegetation takes place along the creek to not only mitigate any damage, but to improve significantly the creek’s total vegetation.

Melbourne Water has advised us that this is a realistic goal, which it would support.

We have asked Mornington MP David Morris to help ensure that this revegetation takes place, as we have no rights to enforce it and it seems the shire is being forced to accept the development and also has no rights to challenge it.

We have advised other environmental groups, as well as the Federal MP [and environment minister], Greg Hunt, councillors and the shire of our concern.

Graham Hubbard, president BERG, Mt Martha

Disaster here now Those who say the Port of Hastings will create an environmental disaster in Western Port have been walking around with their eyes shut. It is happening now and, as is usual, has been caused by man, in the beginning

by European settlers cutting down mangroves (to produce shaving soap), but recently by the soldier settlement workforce draining the swamps, in particular the Koo Wee Rup Swamp.

This not only allowed good access to the coastal villages in the east arm of Western Port and Phillip Island (they used to be supplied by boat), but

also furthered Dr Tim’s work. Landcare networks and Melbourne Water are trying to get farmers to use fewer chemicals and fence off the drains to stop stock “pugging” the water’s edge and causing more silt run off.

In the meantime the mud banks are building up (French Island might not be an island for much longer) to such an extent that seagrass cannot grow on them as they are exposed for too long.

The majority of large “green” ports around the world put revenue back into their local environment. As a community we have to make sure that a percentage of revenue from shipping is also legislated for the Port of Hastings to contribute to a fund (after it’s environmental offsets of course). This must be administered by local nongovernment organisations (NGOs) for the benefit of the Western Port environment and the people who visit, live, work and play in and around it.

By the way, no amount of dredging that the port will need to do around new berth areas and associated swing basins will create as much silt that re-mobilises on a windy day or enters Western Port on a regular basis now.

Dick Cox, former Port of Hastings harbourmaster

At the coal face CONSIDER: in our federal government, the Minister for Agriculture is concerned about supporting our farming industry; the Minister for Foreign Affairs travels the world representing Australian interests; the Minister for Communications is trying to find a solution for the NBN. However, the Minister for the Environment is desperately trying to sell our dirty black coal.

From the grand entry, there is an office to the right and formal dining to the left. Through the dining room is a formal lounge. The vast interior is highlighted by a hallway with dazzling parquetry floors that extend into a spacious family zone that incorporates a stylish kitchen with a full complement of stainless-steel appliances including a dishwasher.

The upstairs level consists of four bedrooms, one in each corner, along with an ensuite for the main bedroom as well as a family bathroom. At the top of the stairs is a pleasant sitting area.

Western Port News 2 September 2014

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillor Graham Pittock has been found guilty of a conflict of interest for voting on SPA at council meetings while operating his Tonic squash-gym business in Dromana.

SPA, the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre, to be built on the Rosebud foreshore, is intended to include a gymnasium. Cr Pittock’s Tonic centre is some 10 kilometres away in Dromana.

The decision serves notice on every councillor across Victoria that courts are not prepared to tolerate what they decide are even slight conflicts between their civic duties and their private interests.

Magistrate Fiona Stewart did not impose a criminal conviction, which would have barred Cr Pittock from being a councillor for up to seven years.

He will be unable to vote on matters affecting SPA. Ms Stewart took into account Cr Pittock’s good character and unblemished record in coming to her decision. But he faces a fine and substantial legal costs. The Local Government Inspectorate,

which brought the case, told Frankston Court it would seek costs from Cr Pittock.

The costs order will be made on 19 September.

Mr Greg Elms, for the inspectorate, and Ms Peta Murphy, for Cr Pittock, were instructed to negotiate on costs before then. Ms Stewart commended the two lawyers for their conduct of the case.

Cr Pittock was not called to give evidence.

The magistrate, in delivering her verdict, concentrated on the Local Government Act section dealing with direct or indirect interest.

Section 77A states that “the relevant person” has no conflict if the matter “is so remote or insignificant” that the interest “could not reasonably be regarded as capable of influencing any actions or decisions of the relevant person in relation to the matter”.

Ms Stewart ruled that Tonic customers living in Rosebud could well switch to the new gym at SPA, and that, because of this, Cr Pittock was conflicted in voting on SPA. David Harrison

Like any religion: Padua College students at Ahmadiyya ‘Bait-ul-Salam’ mosque in Langwarrin with Imam Janud.

Students learn about life inside the mosque PADUA College students and teachers visited the Ahmadiyya mosque and community centre ‘Bait-ul-Salam’ (House of Peace) in Langwarrin.

The 280 students were given a brief presentation on the history and teachings of Islam by Imam Janud, of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association Victoria.

Over two days, six groups of students visited the mosque and learned the basics of Islam and how Muslims worshiped there.

The tour was arranged by Frankston Interfaith Network after a request by Padua College.

The students were shown banners on the Holy Quran and heard about its teachings of harmony, peace, love, science, cosmology and brotherhood. They were shown the women's prayer hall and the main presentation area.

Imam Janud explained six articles of Islamic faith and their implementation in a Muslim’s daily life. He shed light on Islamic daily prayers, fasting, Eid celebrations, the Islamic concept of charity and the pilgrimage to Mecca.

He said Islam was a religion that teaches peace, tolerance and harmony and that “anyone who commits extremism and terrorism in the

name of Islam has nothing to do with its true teachings”.

He said that Prophet Muhammad championed religious freedom and women’s rights and worked tirelessly to establish peace and tolerance in his society. “It is sad that, in this day and age, a small minority of extremists have hijacked His peaceful religion and now a vast majority of the world associates Islam with terrorism and extremism.

“The enthusiastic students and their teachers asked questions about Islamic prayers, dress for women, separation of genders in the mosque, Jihad, extremism and terrorism, the future of political Islam, Islamic leadership and different Islamic sects,” the imam said.

And their impressions? “The kids absolutely loved it,” said mosque official Aziz Bhatti, who asked for feedback. “One student said, ‘I have been given an assignment on Islam and this tour and presentation will help me a lot’.”

Another girl said: “I always wanted to see a mosque from the inside but was afraid of entering. I'm so happy that I saw inside and now I know what Muslims do there.”

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

A send-off for troops being organised Compiled by Cameron McCullough WE are pleased to report that Mr V. S. Beall is able to get about again, after his recent illness. *** ST. Paul’s Club have shown ability and earnest and painstaking effort in preparing the three act comedy “Who’s who.” See our advertising columns. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold their usual monthly market at Somerville, on Wednesday next; when they offer horses, cattle, sheep etc. *** LIET. Co. H. M. Grimwade and Captain Guy Madden are to be asked to make presentations to the Frankston members of the Expeditionary Forces at the patriotic concert on Tuesday next. *** ON Sunday last the Frankston Brass Band played a fine selection of music on the reserve near the Frankston Pier in aid of the Frankston Patriotic Fund.

The sum of £5 5s 6d was collected. *** THE members of the Kooyong Club intend arranging a patriotic concert at the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston. They hope to be able to hand over a substantial amount to the fund. *** THE monthly meeting of the Somerville Fruitgrowers’ Horticultural and Agricultural Association will be held on Monday, 7th September. Business: Harcourt conference, postal delivery for Somerville, and report re skating.

*** A LARGE attendance is expected at the Patriotic concert on Tuesday night, to give “Our Boys” an enthusiastic send off and God speed. The Frankston Brass Band will help to enliven the proceedings with popular and patriotic airs, next Tuesday night. *** AN advertisement in another column draws attention to the cancellation of the Choral Society’s practice owing to the Federal elections and other matters. The secretary hopes a good muster will attend on September 7th, as the members are going to discuss the advisability of singing an operetta. *** AT the Frankston Court of Petty Sessions, on Monday last, before Messrs Williams and Baxter, J’s.P., C. W. Campbell was charged by the police with driving his motor on the footpath on the 10th of August last. Mr Cooke appeared for the defendant.

After hearing the evidence adduced the Bench decided to take a lenient view of the offence on account of the almost impracticable state of the roadway for traffic, and fined the defendant 10s without costs. Chas. Christie was charged with a similar offence on the same date, and was fined in a similar amount. *** Mr H. Garrood has specially designed a coloured souvenir in which he includes the allied flags displayed round a water colouring which is affected by a representation of dawn; the rays of sun penetrating the clouds and

dissolving the darkness of night, and throwing into prominence several battleships etc. One of which is playing its searchlight on the Earth’s globes which has been let into the centre of the design.

The whole of the design is encircled by a rope terminating in a reef knot at the bottom, also clasped hands with a suitable motto (unita fortior). Suspended from the bottom of the design is a ribbon with the words Unity, Prosperity, Peace. The whole being surmounted by the British Coat of Arms.

The above is entirely the work of Mr H. Garrood, everything being completed by hand and has been executed solely for the purpose of assisting the Patriotic Fund as well as a souvenir in commemoration of the Frankston volunteers, who depart from our shores to fight with the allied forces - Great Britain, France, Belgium and Russia in the great war against Germany.

Photo copies of the same will be for sale at different prices, and the proceeds handed over to the Frankston Patriotic Fund.

All those desirous of procuring copies can hail same in suitable sizes for posting away to their friends.

The original design will be displayed during the week in Mr Hammdond’s window. *** FAREWELL to the Frankston Volunteers. A representative meeting of townsmen was held at Frankston on Monday last for the purpose of devising ways and means of showing our appreciation of those who have volun-

teered for service in the present war.

The attendance was large and enthusiastic. Dr Maxwell was voted to the chair, and in his opening remarks explained that at the last meeting of the Patriotic Fund Movement it was resolved to call this present meeting to arrange for giving a send off to those who were leaving for the war.

It was for this meeting to decide on what form the send off would take.

Mr Young informed the meeting that he had written to his son, and asked him if he thought they could tell when it would be convenient for the whole of the men interested to get away for the purpose of attending the proposed send off, and a reply had been received that if this meeting decided on at date that the officer in command would let them off to attend if at all practicable.

Mr Willox moved that Tuesday evening, the 8th September, be decided on as the date for the send off if that was suitable for the men getting off.

Seconded by Mr Oates and carried.

Mr C Watson stated that Mr H Garrood was preparing a memento which he wished to present to those who were leaving Frankston for the war, and also asked that he be given the authority of the Patriotic Committee to sell copies of same in the shape of post cards, the funds raised to go to the patriotic fund.

Captain Sherlock moved and Mr Ritchie seconded, that Mr Garrood’s offer be accepted, and that he be thanked for his generous offer. Carried.

Mr McComb stated that the local fire brigade had decided on giving

three of the men who were leaving, who were members of the brigade, wristlet watches.

Mr Watson said that the billiard club had also decided to give its members who were leaving a smoker’s outfit, while the band was also going to give those who were members of the band small mementoes.

Mr McComb moved that the function take the form of a patriotic conversazione and send off. Seconded by Captain Sherlock and carried.

Mr Ritchie moved that a sub-committee arrange a programme for the evening. Seconded by Mr Moseley and carried.

It was decided that a charge of 6d all round be charged for admission, and that a fund be opened for subscriptions towards defraying expenses.

The tragic tale of teeny tiny toast

By Stuart McCullough IT’S one of my favourite things – toast. Better than sunshine and more reliable that good fortune, it’s fantastic in every way. From the moment I had teeth, there’s barely a day that’s gone by without me eating it. Toast truly is the best thing since sliced bread. It’s simple, versatile and life wouldn’t be the same without it. You can eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and at all points of the compass in between. To be frank, it deserves to be celebrated. Toast should not be allowed to hover in the margins or, for that matter, the margarines. It is, simply put, the best thing ever.

It’s said that man cannot live of bread alone, but no one in his or her right mind would ever say such a thing about toast. Yet, despite the important role it plays in all of our lives, when it comes to degustation, people tend to look down their noses at it. Personally, I long for a time when our major cooking competitions restore toast to the top of the culinary tree. Masterchef would be a whole lot more realistic if, instead of having to make a snow egg or build a croquembouche while wearing a blindfold and over-sized oven mitts, the contestants had to produce a quality piece of toast. It’s not nearly as easy as it sounds.

That people celebrate grand occasions with a toast is no mere dent of coincidence. Granted, it’s more common these days for people to propose a toast with champagne rather than a piece of slightly warm multi-grain,

but it goes to show how much a part of our lives toast truly is. It would be a very splendid thing indeed if brides and grooms across the world would climb to their feet and have people hold aloft pieces of bread – whether white, wholemeal or even pumpernickel – as a way of showing their appreciation. But despite it’s general all-round awesomeness, people rarely talk about how toast was discovered.

Everyone’s heard story about the invention of the sandwich. According to legend, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich was gambling and didn’t want to stop for dinner so, instead, ordered two pieces of bread with a bit of meat in between. Actually, Lord of Sandwich’s full name was John Montagu so, had history gone a different way, we could all be ordering a ‘John’ at lunchtime. In contrast, not many

heritage Tavern & Restaurant Local grassfed Western Port Wagyu featured on our

FATHER’S DAY MENU

people know of the origins of toast.

Compared to the sandwich, the invention of toast is pretty much a mystery.

Or it was, at least, until now.

Sir Toastalot was a rival of Lord Sandwich after the two had a bitter falling out over which member of the Bay City Rollers was more talented.

(Nobby for the Earl, whereas Sir Toastalot preferred Woody.) As their estrangement grew, Sir Toastalot – or, as he was known to his friends, Dennis – made no secret of the fact he considered the antics of the Earl of Sandwich to be nothing short of heresy. As it happens, Dennis was at the very same gambling table as the Earl on that fateful night. When he saw a perfectly decent piece of meat being bookended by a couple of slices of bread, he considered it a culinary crime and attempted to burn the evidence. Thus inadvertently inventing toast. In the years that followed it caused him no end of anguish to see his rival get all the glory. Not that he didn’t have his fervent admirers – when he eventually passed away, Dennis was stuffed and mounted in the cribbage room of the Natural History Museum in London where he remains to this day.

While on a trip through rural Victoria I stayed in a motel that, depending on your point of view, was either ‘rustic’ or ‘unclean’. When checking in, a man with a spectacular toupee asked me to make a selection from the breakfast menu. It was the type of menu that features food you’d probably eat at home, but with a substan-

tially higher price tag. Being in the country, I was sure I’d be in for something special even as evidence began to mount to the contrary. I assured myself that just because the heating didn’t work and the bathroom décor seemed to have drawn its inspiration less from Home Beautiful magazine and more from H Division was no reason to assume that breakfast would be anything other than glorious.

It got down to minus one degree overnight. It was even colder once I stepped outside my room. After going for a run and starting a small fire next to the mini fridge to get warm, there was a confident knock on the door.

On the doorstep sat my long-await bounty but – alas – my toast was nowhere to be found. After getting my glasses, I found it in a small paper sleeve. It was a miniature envelope more suited to a large after dinner mint than two pieces of toast. They were tiny. It was though Emmanuel Lewis worked in the motel kitchen.

There was no other way to describe it – this was Webster toast.

Were Dennis actually buried and not hanging from a wall in a museum, he would surely have turned in his grave. Putting them on the plate only made it worse – it looked like two distant specks in a blizzard. Despite such a bad experience, I haven’t let me put me off. In fact, only this morning I had toast. We all have different ideas about what’s reasonable and it’s nice to be reminded. I’ll toast to that. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Sorrento comes from nowhere NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt SORRENTO staged one of the biggest fightbacks in memory on Saturday when it came from five goals down at half time to beat Dromana by three points in the Nepean League Qualifying Final.

At half time, Dromana was in total control of the contest and it appeared as though things were going to be a formality in the second half.

The Tigers had completely dominated the match with 22 scoring shots to 12 in the first hour, yet Sorrento was still close enough on the scoreboard to make it a contest.

In the second half, Sorrento kicked eight goals to just three, including five to two in the final quarter to grab an unlikely win.

We shouldn’t underestimate Sorrento’s victory – it was mighty.

In the previous week’s match, Sorrento was completely humiliated

by Rye. Dromana on the other hand gave Red Hill a football lesson and went into the match raging favourites.

Sorrento coach Troy Schwarze admitted himself after that match that his side didn’t have a winner on the day. He sold himself and Daniel Grant

short though, given they were winners against the Demons.

Schwarze was confident though that his side would bounce back when the real stuff began.

It certainly didn’t look like that in the first half – they just couldn’t get into the contest.

Ash Waterstone was using his sizable physique to ruffle a few Sorrento feathers, Steven Gaertner (four goals), Jae Williams and Billy Quigley (three goals) looked mighty dangerous in attack, Jay Neratzoglou and Christian Ongarello seemed to be in control down back and the likes of Terry Wheeler, Vetan Rexha, Cam Park, Dan Gormley and Kieran Voelkl were causing all sorts of mayhem through the middle of the ground.

The lesser lights including Jack Fowler and Brad Grove were also playing significant roles for the Tigers.

It wasn’t a case of Sorrento not playing good footy like the week before, they just couldn’t get their hands on the footy.

Oh how things changed at half time.

Full credit to Troy Schwarze on managing his team superbly.

Going into the clash, everyone shared the same opinion that Myles Pitt and Ben Schwarze could not be in

the same forward line together.

They were early, although Ben played much higher. However, in the second half, Ben Schwarze was moved to half back, a role he made his own.

He was named his side’s best player and although he probably wasn’t, the role he played was significant in turning the fortunes of his side around.

He attacked the footy like his life depended on it and constantly drove his team forward.

His brother and coach Troy played another four great quarters of footy and really led from the front when they needed the spark.

I take my hat off to Myles Pitt. He was sensational and in the end; match winning.

His selection in the team was widely criticised. After all, he missed the large majority of the season. However, he justified the faith of his coach on Saturday, finishing with six goals, four of them coming in the last quarter.

Guy Stringer might be 40 years old and nearing 400 games, but he saved three goals in the last 30 minutes of the match. He marked two on the line and punched one through on the line with just a minute left on the clock. A goal would have handed back the lead and probably victory to Dromana.

Daniel Grant was the best player on the ground. He was the one that kept the Sharks in the contest in the first half and didn’t back off when the side got going in the second half.

Zac Byrns got busy and finished with three goals and whilst he was quieter than normal, Leigh Poholke popped up for three also.

Teenager James Brigden offered some run and spark and Matt Dobrowolski used his pace and vision to his advantage.

Dave Lawson had the tough job on Paul Minchington and completely shut the little star out of the game.

It was an amazing comeback from the Sharks, who were still running on top of the ground to the very end.

Surprisingly, Dromana looked unfit, slow and there were plenty of players cramping in the last quarter. That was a major concern.

The final score was Sorrento 15.11 (101), Dromana 14.14 (98).

The Sharks earned the right to play Crib Point in the second semi-final next weekend while Dromana will tackle Rye in the knockout first semifinal after the Demons got up in a thriller.

In Sunday’s Elimination Final at Thomas Barclay Reserve at Hastings,

Rye hit the front with 90 seconds left on the clock to grab a two-point win over Red Hill.

The Demons took control of the match in the second quarter, however inaccuracy in front of goal kept Red Hill in the hunt.

In the end, the Demons deserved to win the game, 11.17 (83) to 12.9 (81).

Andrew Dean was the match winner for the Demons with a mark and goal from point blank range (the goal square) at the 26-minute mark of the last quarter. He was almost the villain when he missed one from the same position just minutes earlier.

Rhett Sutton, like he did in the just win game last week against Sorrento, led from the front with a best on ground performance.

Ben Cain and Ryan Semmel were again at their optimum through the middle of the ground and Matt McIndoe and Leigh Morse shone.

Jarred Eames booted four goals for the Hillmen, while Harry Larwill was again superb from the back half.

Matt Hyden and Jake Mitchell also worked tirelessly through the middle of the ground and Marcus Dal Lago led from the front.

Sharks turn the tables on Eagles PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt BONBEACH turned around a three game losing streak against Edithvale-Aspendale to advance to the Peninsula League second semifinal.

The Sharks burst out of the blocks and led at every change to run out 16.15 (111) to 12.8 (80) winners.

Inaccuracy in front of goal by the Sharks allowed the Eagles to stay in the contest. At half time, Bonbeach had 17 scoring shots to 11 but led by just one point at the interval.

The margin was 10 points at three quarter time (11.14 to 11.4) before the Sharks dominated the last half hour, booting five goals to one to record a commanding victory.

It was a win that the Sharks needed to kick off their finals campaign.

Of course, the last time they were at Frankston Park, they were blown away in the last quarter to lose the grand final against Edithvale.

In the two home and away matches this season, Edithvale had the better of the Sharks.

But despite the importance of getting the monkey off the back, Bonbeach coach Steven Capp told the RPP Footy Show (98.7FM, Saturday

9-10.30am) before the game that it wasn’t something his side had talked about leading up to the match.

“2014 has been a very different season to 2013 and I believe we are better equipped heading into the finals,” Capp said.

“We believe our best is good enough to beat anyone and the recent record against Edithvale means little when we run out today.

“We don’t rely on any one or two players this season, like I believe we did last year, to a degree.

“We have concentrated on ensuring that we have an even spread of contributors every week, rather than just relying on the likes of Shane McDonald to kick goals and Paul Rebeschini to drive us from the back half,” Capp said.

Edithvale coach Troy Shannon agreed.

“What we were able to achieve last year against Bonbeach and even beating them twice this year, means nothing in finals,” Shannon said.

“We proved ourselves last year coming from fifth place that anything can happen in finals.”

Whilst the Sharks don’t rely on any one or two players to win them games, it was the stars in McDonald

2004 HYUNDAI GETZ

and Rebeschini who led the charge on Saturday.

McDonald booted four goals and was his usual lively self while Rebeschini dominated from the back half.

Gary Carpenter and Jackson Casey have been superb this season and their influence on the contest was outstanding.

Cal McQueen booted almost 50 goals last season and whilst he hasn’t been as dominated, his last month has been superb. He booted five goals on Saturday.

Whilst the Sharks didn’t have the same spread of goal kickers it has had throughout the season, it still had eight different contributors on the weekend.

That was always going to be a problem for the Eagles coming into the match.

The Sharks went into the match having eight different players who had kicked more than 13 goals for the season.

Edithvale had just six but more importantly, four of them were key forwards in Jarrod Garth, Brent Bowden, Brad Tagg and Matt Kremmer.

They weren’t getting a lot from

their midfielders forward of centre and this is probably the key reason they went down on Saturday.

Some Eagles were also underdone and the big open spaces of Frankston Park in hot conditions tested their resolve.

Jarrod Garth was sensational for the Eagles with six goals. Brad Tagg worked tirelessly with a couple and Timmy Mannix and Markham Johnson combined pretty well in the middle of the ground.

Their defence was under enormous pressure though and they just couldn’t resist the surge from the Sharks.

The Eagles will need to bounce back in the elimination first semi-final against Mornington while Bonbeach will be looking to head straight into the grand final with a win over Frankston YCW in the second semifinal.

Mornington earned the right to tackle the Eagles after holding on to beat a fast finishing Langwarrin by two points, 9.9 (63) to 9.7 (61).

The Dogs set up the win with four goals in four minutes in the third quarter after things were tight for the first half.

The Doggies also kicked the first goal of the last quarter before

Langwarrin matched the Dogs’ effort of four goals in as many minutes to get within striking distance.

It almost looked like history was going to repeat itself after the Dogs squandered what appeared to be a match winning lead last year against Edithvale before going down.

However, with the Kangas deep into attack, the siren sounded, handing the Dogs the opportunity to proceed into the second week of the finals.

Langwarrin’s Ricky Johnson was the best player on the ground, dominating from the back line, while ruckman Matt Naughton and midfielders Steve O’Brien and Mitch Gill Furness were also dominant.

The Dogs were certainly cleaner with the footy in the second and third quarters, which helped them get over the line.

Warwick Miller was outstanding for the Dogs, often left to do what he wanted, while Adrian Speedy was dominant.

Mornington’s best player was Jai Haddock, while Daniel McDowell was also very strong in defence.

After the disappointment of last season, the Dogs certainly deserved to go through and be part of the second week of finals this season.

Can the Magpies win flag?

CRIB POINT FNC

By Jared Newton CRIB Point seniors have made their first finals appearance in 10 years and have done it in style taking on all before them this season to finish on top of the ladder. This week they go up against Sorrento at Hastings in what will be a huge turnout from the Crib Point faithful as they dare to dream whether they are good enough to win the flag.

The season started strongly with convincing wins over Frankston and Somerville and the expectations kept building as the season wore on. What started as “let’s make finals” turned into “let’s finish with a double chance” to now there is a genuine belief they can pull it off and win the whole thing.

The reserves had yet another up and down season. Started poorly, came good through the middle, then fell away at the end to finish 9th. At their best they were able to match it with the best, at their worst they struggled to beat the strugglers but despite this they took some great strides forward and have a base to build from in 2015.

The under 18s went from easybeats in the early rounds to a team that managed to compete week in and week out and again. Like the ressies they have built themselves a good base to launch for 2015 as most of them will be underage players again next season.

Seniors: For the home and away season they have to score a 10/10. They have been well prepared by a coach

who is passionate about the club, does the job for a pittance and drives off field activities in the way of sponsorship and is there every function and session on and off field. Annable’s passion has really filtered through to the playing group and it shows in the way they play their football. The team’s ability to win the close ones is a testament to his coaching where he allows them to play their football without fear and has seen them win from behind several times, holding their nerve in big games which will stand them in good stead this finals series.

The team is very even with a good mix of youth and experience now. The under 25s have all now got 50 plus games under their belts and have been there for the lean times so they are hungry too. Managed to beat every side at least once this year except for Red Hill who seemed to have their measure. A well prepared and disciplined team throughout the year barring one debacle where they gave away six 50 metre penalties, they have won their games through even performances and multiple winners across the park. If they want to take the next step that will be their strength in finals.

Aside from a couple of top-up players the side is predominantly home grown – talent like Herrington, the Cooks, Symes, Davidson, Smith, Dekleuver, Warry are all home grown – even the recruits are good mates of the locals so they are a tight knit group.

The Pies all season have had multiple avenues at goal, inside and outside midfielders winning the ball and pass

off the half back line. The only query is their finals opponents have all been there before and know what to expect.

For Crib Point the issue is controlling the nerves but if they do that they might just do what no-one thought they were capable of doing.

Reserves: A disappointing season but there was a lot to like about it too.

For the first time in a few years the side was able to go toe to toe with the quality sides in the comp. They ran Somerville to within a goal and were unlucky not to win, managed to beat Dromana on their home deck and put away some handy sides with a good style of fast running football. The bad though was a side light on depth when the injuries really hit and undisciplined football sometimes when the side was really put under the pump. A Jekyll and Hyde season where there never seemed to be a happy medium but their best football was good enough to play finals and if they can find a way to bring that out for 18 weeks instead of 10, they will win enough games to make the five.

A young team that can learn and improve. 5/10.

Under 18s: Started the season very slowly and copped a few hidings and the early thoughts were they would struggle to hold together. To their credit they stuck at it all season and went from a team who were flogged each week to a team who managed to keep competing, stringing some good football together and run some teams to the end with some spirited football.

Magpies flying high: There has been no holding back Crib Point this season despite attempts by rival sides including Hastings. Picture: Andrew Hurst

This side was very small compared to most of their opponents and if they grow an inch or two over the summer and all come back for 2015, they could improve rapidly on their 2014 season. The boys did such a great job in sticking at it and managing to play competitive football after starting so slowly. 5/10.

The nerves will reach tipping point this weekend no doubt but when you finish top of the table you get two bites at a Grand Final. Dromana, Sorrento and Rye are all quality opponents with extensive finals experience and they won’t be easy to navigate but if they stick to what’s worked all year who knows what may happen.
