Quiet place of reflection WESTERN Port Secondary College’s spiral meditation garden was officially opened on Monday afternoon. Creating the garden, its archway and mosaic pavers with words of inspiration such as joy, peace, calm, relax and hope was a collective effort of students in years 7-10 as well as families of students, friends, teachers and Hastings Rotary. Year 8s made a documentary about the project. An arts grant for materials came from Mornington Peninsula Shire. College assistant principal Hannah Lewis said the project was “our contribution to the Warringine precinct, which celebrates the links between the shire, Peninsula Health, Warringine Park and Willum Warrain – the meeting place by the sea�. “Students with family in the defence force made a poppy bowl with the Australian, British and Aboriginal flag on the inside and their garden features rosemary and poppies to signify remembrance,� she said. “We have planted plants for their scent, colour, beauty and to attract birds. “When you walk through the archway the idea is that you will leave your worries, sadness, pain, anger, frustrations or anxiety behind. In our busy lives with so many stresses and competing demands, it is important to find a quiet space to restore and reinvigorate ourselves.� Special place: Clockwide from top left, Hannah Lewis, outdoor classroom coordinator John Eldridge, Robert Clohesy of year 7 and Madi Watson-Bell of year 9 in the garden.

Chamber accused By Keith Platt THE crisis facing Western Port Chamber of Commerce and Industry after losing a $50,000 federal government grant has deepened with accusations of lies and deceit being made by the chamber’s marketing and promotions officer. In a no-holds-barred “open� letter to the chamber committee and its members Sarah McLennan accuses the chamber of being an organisation
where “honesty and transparency is not a priority�. Most of the grant for the Empty Space, New Place renewal project was handed back because it was not spent within the specified time frame. However, the program to put artists and “community initiatives� in vacant shops was doomed to fail, with estate agent Chris Watt saying that such use would make it difficult to find paying tenants and advising landlords not to
get involved (“Chamber pursues renew�, The News, 26/11/13). Ms McLennan says she is “devastated� that her job was advertised without her knowledge and has no intention of applying because the position description equates to more work for fewer hours. “I hold all the necessary qualifications and skills to perform the role, but I hold little interest in signing up to something where the time allocated

to perform the required tasks is unreasonable, in order to achieve anything worthwhile or meaningful for the members,� Ms McLennan stated in her letter emailed on Friday. “Further to this, my concerns run much deeper than just a change of role in the position description. I feel that I no longer have the support of the executive committee, rendering the majority of the original position I was contracted to perform untenable.�
Seven hours after Ms McLennan sent her letter, chamber president Lisa Dixon said the executive committee had decided that by advertising the marketing and promotions job “we recognise the opportunity for Hastings to take the next step in its exciting development with the port expansion, retail growth opportunities, tourism and housing growth�.

Crime rate up but police take credit By Chris Brennan THE total number of crimes recorded on the Mornington Peninsula was 2.6 per cent higher for the 12 months to 30 September compared with the corresponding period the year before, led by a rise in assaults, burglary and car theft. The official crime rate for the peninsula, measured as a ratio of per head of population, was up just 0.8 per cent. It was punctuated by significant declines in the number of robberies (down 34 per cent), drug offences (15.5 per cent lower), and theft from motor vehicle (down 17.3 per cent.). The latest Victoria Police statistics for the year to 30 September show police on the peninsula are making significant inroads in curbing crime against property, but that crime against the person – a category that includes rape and domestic violence – continues to rise. However, police said this was due mainly to increased reporting of incidents of family violence following high-profile campaigns that encouraged victims to come forward. Across Victoria, the official crime rate was up 2.7 per cent measured as a rate per 100,000 people, while the total number of offences recorded jumped 4.6 per cent. Crimes against the person increased by 2.5 per cent, due mostly to a rise in assaults, which increased 4 per cent, while robbery was down 18.3 per cent. Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Lucinda Nolan said the increase in crime rates was due to better crime detection, particularly for offences such as drug use and possession. She said police had also seen a rise in breaches of family violence intervention orders, which was directly related to more family violence-based offences overall.
Inspector Neil Aubert said that while the latest results were encouraging, police were concerned a number of key messages were not being heeded by residents, including the need for drivers not to leave valuables in plain sight and to lock their vehicles. “I must say that, statistically, we are still seeing more than 60 per cent of thefts from motor vehicles occur where vehicles are left unlocked,” he said. “We’re also seeing valuable items such as mobile phones, wallets, purses and other electronic items left on display in vehicles. “Please remember to protect your valuables and think before your leave your car. Make it a priority to lock your vehicle, even in your own driveway.” Family violence also remained an area of focus for police across Victoria, Inspector Aubert said. “[This] is an ongoing statewide issue that takes a terrible toll on families and the wider community. These destructive behaviours will remain a priority for police and support groups. “The Mornington Peninsula Family Violence Unit will continue to target recidivist offenders and offer support to victims, so I urge all members of our community to speak out against family violence.” He said the summer period loomed as high-risk period for both crime and road trauma. “With holidays approaching, you will soon see more police out and about along the foreshores and at camping grounds. “Police will treat seriously the acts of anti-social behaviour, drunkenness and drink and drug driving.”
Neighbours raise the alarm FIREFIGHTERS credit a smoke alarm with waking neighbours who then warned the occupants of a Hastings unit that the building was on fire. The alert neighbours also called Hastings fire brigade to the King St unit, which was alight by the time they arrived. The brigade’s administrative support officer Andrew Bartels said the fire was spotted just before 2am on Saturday 16 November. “Arriving at the block of units, firefighters were faced with one unit well alight, with fire

issuing from several windows and the front door. “Using multiple hose lines, the fire was quickly knocked down and our thermal imaging camera was used to check for any remaining hot spots that may have led to re-ignition. “While a smoke detector in the home operated, the neighbours were the first hear it and quickly called the fire brigade, before alerting the occupants inside the unit who evacuated.” Mr Bartels said fire investigators had “determined that the fire was not suspicious and may have been caused by electrical equipment”.

CEO signs off with plans to expand By Keith Platt AROUND the clock emergency care for heart attack patients has been introduced at Frankston Hospital. “Ambulances will no longer need to transfer patients between health services, which can often also result in longer wait times,� Peninsula Health CEO Dr Sherene Devanesen said. “In addition to providing patients with a localised and accessible 24/7 service, the introduction of the extended service also aims to reduce the workloads and waiting times for ambulances.� The announcement at Peninsula Health’s annual meeting at Frankston Arts Centre on Friday came as the state government renewed efforts to end a standoff over wages and conditions by ambulance paramedics. It followed an incident in July when a 71-yearold Hastings man suffered cardiac arrest while being transferred from Frankston Hospital to Monash Medical Centre. The man spent two hours on a trolley at Frankston before being put back in an ambulance because the hospital did not have a spare bed. An investigation by Peninsula Health found the man had been provided with adequate care and it was unlikely his death could have been prevented. “In recent times, there have been a larger number of patients requiring cardiac angiography services outside of normal operating hours,� Dr Devanesen said. “Normally these patients would be transferred to larger hospitals, which offer 24-hour emergency cardiac services. “It is because of this continued increase in patients that a need was identified for a local, extended cardiac angiography service for our community. “All patients in our catchment area suffering from suspected heart problems who come to Frankston Hospital emergency department will be able to access this service unless their condition requires

a more specialised service from one of the major hospitals.� Dr Devanesen, who has resigned after 13 years as Peninsula Health CEO to become chief operating officer at the Yooralla Society of Victoria, announced several “expansions� to the health service in her final report. She said an extra four treatment chairs would be added to Frankston Hospital’s oncology day treatment centre (for a total of 15) along with two more beds. “The layout will be redesigned to create a friendlier, brighter and more accessible service for patients and staff,� Dr Devanesen said. “The expansion will ensure that services in addition to chemotherapy such as blood transfusions, bone marrow biopsies, pathology and other investigative procedures are able to be carried out in an environment that is tailored to suit the needs of the service.� Dr Devanesen said there would be 60 job vacancies “in the brand new, state-of-the-art, 30-bed geriatric rehabilitation wing at the award-winning Mornington Centre�. Roles to be filled included nurses, allied health professionals, support services and administration staff. “There will be a mix of full-time and part-time roles available,� Dr Devanesen said. The new wing, due to open in March 2014, takes the Mornington Centre to a 90-bed inpatient centre. “The patients we care for at the Mornington Centre have chronic and complex conditions, which may include dementia. “The centre is a modern facility, which provides patient-centred and interdisciplinary care for patients requiring a period of assessment and rehabilitation to optimise function and determine future care needs.� To register for a job, go to www.peninsulhealth. org.au/careersemployment

MORE than 1000 riders are expected to take part in Saturday’s Peninsula Toy Run from Frankston to Rosebud following the death of its founder and organiser John Smollen last Saturday. Mr Smollen of Pearcedale, a member of the Ulysses Club’s Mornington Wanderers branch, devoted many hours each year
toy run would go ahead. The event draws many spectators, who enjoy seeing riders dressed in Christmas costumes on decorated bikes. Phil Matthews of Mornington Wanderers said about 700 riders took part last year but more were expected this year “to honour the work of John”.
The toy run leaves Frankston pier car park at 9.30am on Saturday for Rosebud with riders assembling from 8am. Riders head down the Nepean Highway to Rosebud via Mornington and Dromana. For details or to donate unwrapped toys and canned or packaged food, call Phil Matthews, 9766 0758.
PORT managers will no longer have to apply for a planning permit for buildings and structures under new rules introduced by the state government last month. Permitted structures include wharves and warehouses but, oddly, not caretakers’ houses on port land. Planning Minister Matthew Guy said the zone and streamlined planning controls would create an effective buffer between port operations and uses in adjoining areas, and provide certainty for port operators, local councils and the community. Ports Minister David Hodgett said Victoria’s four ports in Melbourne, Geelong, Hastings and Portland needed to be “given the flexibility to operate effectively”. The port zone, which will be introduced through planning scheme amendments, supports key projects such as the Webb Dock redevelopment at the Port of Melbourne and plans to develop Port of Hastings as an international container port.

Chamber officer accuses by letter Continued from Page 1
Ms Dixon said the beginning of a new special charge scheme in 2014 had provided “an appropriate opportunity to advertise the contracted marketing and promotions position”. The decision had been made by the executive committee and Mornington Peninsula Shire’s economic development unit. “As members of our vibrant and hard-working chamber (all volunteers), we would encourage all of you to help promote along with us this important next stage,” Ms Dixon stated. “We thank Sarah in her contracted role for all her efforts in promoting the chamber, all of which were expectations in the fulfilment of the said role. We wish Sarah well in any future endeavours.” Ms McLennan said she would only reapply for the job if “the position description be rolled back and the current management arrangement be improved, I would reconsider my position on this matter”. In an earlier letter to executive committee members, Ms McLennan listed reasons for not being able to carry out her work effectively, including no longer having a key to the chamber’s post office box; not receiving mail addressed to her; being told not to hand-deliver promotional material to members; being questioned over hours worked; not being required to attend meetings of council or community groups; and being asked for her email login details. “It might be a total coincidence, but someone tried to reset the password on the [information] email address while I was out of the office…,” Ms McLennan said. “I also do not believe that if I was to reapply for my role that it would be taken seriously, as there is clearly a divide between the executive committee and members with regards to my performance.” As well as seeking a new marketing and promotions officer, the chamber is also asking committee members to sign a code of conduct, including agreeing to “not harass or discriminate against colleagues or members of the public or WCCI employees”. Committee members are also barred from making public statements about the chamber. The code of conduct document, in spelling out the chamber’s role, says it can “borrow or raise money from the members or otherwise … to create, execute and issue mortgages, bonds, debentures and debenture stock, with or without a charge upon all or any of the property of the chamber”. Ms McLennan had her contract terminated on Monday afternoon.
Summer’s 10 days of music THIS year’s Peninsula Summer Music Festival will see 10 days of performances at a variety of venues, including a church, community theatre, school and vineyards. The 27 December-5 January program ranges 1930s French jazz to Renaissance woodwind, 17th centurystyle fandango to works by Telemann and Mozart. More than 50 musicians from Australia, New York, France, Germany, the UK and the Netherlands, will perform 26 events under the artistic direction of Julia Fredersdorff. Venues are at Red Hill, Flinders, Moorooduc, Rosebud, Merricks North and Mt Eliza. Highlights include Dido and Aeneas, directed by Kenneth Weiss (USA),
starring Fiona Campbell as Dido. The opening concert, A Festive Rackett, features “horticulturallythemed” music from Renaissance England with Simon Rickard, Jackie Hansen, Brock Imison and Kirsten Barry playing curtals - the earliest incarnation of the modern bassoon and composed of a single piece of maple wood. On New Year's Day, the music of 1930s Paris will be played by Hair of the Dog in a concert also featuring B.T Baldwin and his band, George Washingmachine. Go to www.peninsulafestival.com. au for the full festival program, including free performances. Bookings online or from Frankston Arts Centre 9784 1060.
Pokies request
Meet Frank Martin
THE Peninsula Club in Dromana wants to install 18 extra poker machines, up from 20 to 38. The machines, also called electronic gaming machines (EGMs), are not being transferred from other venues in Mornington Peninsula Shire. The club is owned by AFL club the Western Bulldogs, which “saved” the former Dromana-Red Hill RSL subbranch from oblivion in 2010 when it closed in July with debts of $200,000. Peninsula Club will have to provide the shire with a planning application and a socio-economic impact assessment. It is expected a community consultation process will occur. Peninsula Club is one of 17 venues on the peninsula with pokies. Total losses on the peninsula were $78.9 million, down slightly from the previous year. Mike Hast
RESIDENTS of the shire’s biggest ward – Red Hill Ward – have the chance to discuss topics of interest and concern at a meeting at 6.30pm on Wednesday 18 December in Balnarring Hall, 341 FrankstonFlinders Rd.

Port protests to grow as impacts revealed ANALYSIS By David Harrison and Mike Hast FOR a big issue, it was a small crowd on the Hastings foreshore last month to voice concerns about the proposed – and inevitable – giant Port of Hastings. About 150 people from across Victoria rallied to oppose plans for a coal port in southern Victoria with Hastings, Corner Inlet (northeast of Wilsons Promontory National Park) and Ninety Mile Beach being touted as possible sites. Three million TEUs by 2030, as predicted by the Port of Hastings Development Authority, means the waters of Western Port will teem with shipping. Three million TEUs annually translate to 8219 TEUs moved each day. (A TEU, or twenty-foot equivalent, is a measure of capacity in container transportation as containers come in many sizes.) To break this figure down further, 8219 TEUs a day is 342 an hour, or nearly six every minute, or one about every 10 seconds, all day every day if the port operates 24 hours a day. For the 90 minutes or so the antiport rally lasted, more than 500 TEUs would have moved through the port. How many ship movements per year does the 3 million TEUs figure represent? At present ships carry 6000 to 9000 TEUs apiece. But they would rarely load or unload their entire cargo at Hastings. Assuming the average ship carries 7500 TEUs and handles a quarter of that number (about 1900) at Hastings, about 1600 ships annually would visit an expanded port.
This means about 31 ships a week would be turned around at the new port. Four ships in and out again over each 24-hour period, each berthed for less than six hours. Of course these figures rely on a number of variables – for example, ship size, port and transport practices – that could ultimately show them to be vast over- or under-estimates. The effort in these calculations has been to aim conservatively. The authority estimates Hastings port container movements will treble to 9 million by 2070-80. But they will probably arrive on far bigger ships. At present, the biggest container ships are the Maersk Triple E class vessels, with a capacity of 18,340 TEUs. Four are in service, one undergoing sea trials and five under construction. At 400 metres long, they are more than twice the length of the MCG, wider than an Olympic swimming pool is long and as high as a 12-storey building. In some ports, up to eight cranes are used to unload and load her into kilometres of dockside yards. They have a draught of 14.5 metres, the low-tide depth of Western Port’s shipping channel. Whether they visit Hastings remains to be seen. It is more likely smaller ships – and more of them – will handle the expanded port’s trade. But back to the present. The estimated 8219 TEUs a day will enter and leave the port by rail and truck, travelling up and down the newly engineered, six-lane Western Port Highway and the rail line proposed to run up its

centre. There will inevitably be trucks on local roads, possibly including Peninsula Link, to take advantage of the EastLink tollway route to eastern and northeastern Melbourne. A new road from Ringwood to the Hume Highway for country freight is a possibility. The possibility of unpacking containers on the Hastings and Tyabb port land has also been mooted. This would see far more trucks using local roads. As these possibilities sink in, people living in Hastings and along nearby road and rail corridors are likely to rally to minimise the effect of the port on their lives. Protests will also grow louder if rumours of coal being exported from Hastings become reality.
Ports Minister David Hodgett and Hastings MP Neale Burgess have stated coal will not be exported from Hastings but the Napthine government will not be in power forever; it might lose government next November. Energy and power companies and their scientists have spent millions searching for the “holy grail” of Latrobe Valley’s brown coal – extracting its high water content to make it as viable as black coal. Mechanical thermal expression (MTE) involves heating brown coal, also known as lignite, to between 150 and 200 degrees then squeezing the coal mechanically to push out the water. Latrobe Valley coal comprises up to 66 per cent water. It has been described
as a soft brown combustible sedimentary rock that is formed from naturally compressed peat – the lowest rank of coal, with a low carbon content. But India, China and other developing nations want it by the shipload and the Latrobe Valley has billions of tonnes. Popular in Melbourne decades ago as a heating fuel (briquettes), it is used in the valley at the world’s highest carbonemitting power station, Hazelwood. The coal could be piped in a slurry to Hastings where it would be dried and converted to pellets to be loaded on to ships via a conveyor belt. If this ever happens, the fur will really start to fly.

IT looks like actor Steve Bastoni enjoyed the look of Movember, but the growth on his upper lip is for a role in a film being shot in Turkey. Last week the Rosebud-based Bastoni had his mind on much shorter, small budget productions than the Italian job he’s doing with Russell Crowe as he posed for stills to promote next February’s Peninsula Short Film Fest. In his role as film festival director, Bastoni said films of up to eight minutes were being accepted up to the deadline of 20 December. “If you have an idea, grab a camera and get filming,” he said. The festival has a $5000 first prize, $2500 for second and $1250 third. Bastoni said the winner of a new category – the Best Cinematography Award – “will walk

Snow business: Belle Brockhoff has risen through the ranks of competition snowboarding with astonishing speed and is off to the Winter Olympics in Russia early next year.
Brockhoff has recipe for snow success By Mike Hast PENINSULA snowboarder Belle Brockhoff has snow in her genes and winning on her mind. The 20-year-old first skied as a child and took up snowboarding at age 10 with an eye to competing at the Olympics. She is off to the Winter Games in Russia in February after a stellar rise in the highly competitive world of snowboarding. Her uncle, Peter Brockhoff, competed in alpine skiing at the 1960 and 1964 Winter Olympics. Her grandfather Harold Brockhoff was one of the original pioneers of Mt Buller, and her great aunt, Joyce Brockhoff, has a run named in her honour at Mt Hotham in recognition
of her work promoting women in snow sports. Her dad Bruce Brockhoff competed in an entirely different dimension – he was an international and national gliding champion in the 1980s. The Brockhoff name may be familiar to older readers: Belle’s great-great-grandfather established the biscuit manufacturing firm A F Brockhoff & Co in Melbourne in the 1800s, and three generations worked in the company, including her dad Bruce. Brockhoff’s Biscuits merged with Arnott’s in 1966. But back to the snow: the Australian Olympics Committee says Belle Brockhoff is one of the world’s most formidable snowboard cross competitors.
At the Olympic test event in Russia, she placed sixth and finished the 2012-13 season ranked ninth in the world. A breakthrough bronze at a world cup in Austria gave her the confidence to chase a medal at her first Olympics. “I definitely want to finish on the podium at the Games,” Brockhoff said before departing for a training camp in Austria. She has been training in Australia and New Zealand to prepare physically and technically for the final weeks of competition and the Games next year. Fractions of a second make a difference in snowboard cross, where competitors pull themselves out of a starting gate and hurtle down a
course of jumps and turns, jostling for position. She has been perfecting starts at a specialist facility at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra and has made great time gains. The discipline requires strength and endurance, and Brockhoff has been powering up sand dunes and lifting weights. Brockhoff is the only openly gay Australian athlete at the Winter Olympics. Olympic spokesman Andrew Reid said her stance for equality and against discrimination was celebrated by most people in 2013. “Anti-gay propaganda laws introduced in Russia this year have caused outrage around the world.
There were initial calls for boycotts and concerns for how openly gay athletes, officials, spectators or media people would be treated,” he said. Brockhoff said she had not considered boycotting her Olympic dream. “The Olympics have always been my dream ever since I was a little girl and picked up my first snowboard. I’ve been training for 10 years for this,” she said. Brockhoff will be in Sochi to snowboard faster than her competitors and not as a pro-gay protester, Mr Reid said. She plans to be an ambassador for gay rights in Australia after the Olympics.

Independent state proposed for peninsula By Chris Brennan FRANKSTON and the Mornington Peninsula should secede from Victoria and form a new independent state with its own government, laws and flag, a Melbourne academic has suggested. Swinburne University lecturer Matthew Mitchell said the wishes and democratic rights of the people of the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston City were being ignored, especially when it came to planning and development issues, and that this could be resolved by the two municipalities uniting to become a separate state. “At every community consultation, the one issue that nearly everyone agrees on is that the area is being overdeveloped and that people do not want that,� he said. “So why is that, despite this being raised, development rolls on with proposals for even more high density living? Why is it that in this ‘democractic’ country, what the people want is ignored?� The answer, he said, was that local governments were not recognised under the Australian Constitution and thus held little real power, while state bodies beholden to powerful business interests were able to overturn locally enacted laws and planning schemes. Under the Australian Constitution, only two levels of government are recognised – state governments and the federal government – with no mention of local government or local councils, he said. “So local residents can spend a lot of time working with councils to create local planning laws to protect their communities and their local environment, but the laws can be overturned, either by VCAT or the planning minister.� “People spend a lot of time going to council forums, writing objections, writing letters to newspapers, all with little effect. “The answer is that there is something wrong with our democracy.� The only way to reclaim the legal authority for residents to determine their own future was

through the formation of a legally constituted state within the Australian federal system. Dr Mitchell, who lives in Seaford and is a proponent of sustainable development, said that while the idea of forming an independent state on the Mornington Peninsula, with Frankston as its capital, might sound unfeasible, there was actually nothing stopping residents calling for a referendum to vote for their own independent government. This was in fact the exact process by which the state of Victoria had been created. “The State of Victoria was created in response
to the demands of Melbourne residents in 1850 to be governed by local people who understood their problems,� he said. “This provides a precedent for the creation of the State of Mornington Peninsula. “People on the peninsula would seek the right to govern themselves as they see fit, by locals. “A new state will allow peninsula people to take control of their own future, and will provide immediate economic and environmental benefits.� Dr Mitchell said the creation of the State of Mornington Peninsula would lead to “immediate significant economic benefits� through creation
of more jobs and opportunities in the area. Revenue and employment opportunities that currently went to Melbourne would be relocated to Frankston and the peninsula, with an independent state requiring its own education, transport and planning departments, as well as courts and police. “The flow-on effects of this would significantly boost local business and open up very attractive opportunities to the people of Mornington Peninsula State,� Dr Mitchell said. “These systems would be far more responsive to the needs of the people on the peninsula than current state services. “In fact, if this process was to be conducted across Victoria, this would achieve the decentralisation and revitalisation of rural communities that has been discussed and previously attempted by the state government over recent decades. “The conversion of the entire state of Victoria into a set of smaller regional states could also be done via a state referendum.� This could result in about 18 to 20 regional governments that could then create a “coalition of Victorian governments� that would supervise and manage the reorganisation of former state of Victoria assets, services and responsibilities. But it was in the areas of environmental management and development planning that the “micro-state� proposal was most critical. The creation of one or more regionalised state governments within Victoria would give communities direct control over the environment and natural resources. “For example, communities would have complete control over the use of genetically modified crops and coal seam gas fracking,� he said. “We can see the problems, we can see where they come from. What we need to know now is how to get back control of our lives and our suburbs.� For more details of the Mornington Peninsula State proposal, visit www.8thstate.net

Bells jingling at radio studio RADIO Port Phillip’s recording studio was filled with excitement last week when primary school children recorded a Christmas CD. Thirty-six pupils from Woodlands, Mornington Park, Somerville Rise, Kingsley Park, Rosebud and Frankston Heights primaries performed traditional and modern Christmas carols. Proceeds from CD sales will go to State Schools’ Relief, an independent charity that helps needy students at government schools. Woodlands primary assistant
principal Michael Block said the event gave “children a full recording experience, while helping others”. RPP-FM manager Brendon Telfer said the station was happy to make the BlueScope studio available for the day. “It’s a super project for a very worthy cause and the kids were great. Hopefully this was the first of an annual event,” he said. The project was a great way to develop links between peninsula schools and its community radio station, he said.
Music director Malcolm Boag said it was “a terrific recording session” and praised the singers and the studio’s facilities. The CD features classics like Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, and Jingle Bell Rock. It will be available at the primary schools this week and at the station, next to Peninsula Community Theatre, corner Nepean Highway and Wilsons Rd, Mornington. Tracks will feature on the station’s Christmas playlists. Debra Mar
PHOTOGRAPHIC art has been added to the categories of works being accepted at next year’s Mornington Art Exhibition. The popularity of photographic art is increasing along with its recognition as a relevant art form. The photographic art section of the exhibition will have three categories – landscape or seascape, sport, and people – and will be judged by The News’s photographer Yanni. The News is the event’s major sponsor. “This is a logical and positive step forward for all interested parties to the show, especially local photographers and Mornington Peninsula residents who will have the opportunity to display and view this popular art form,” said Yanni, who also a judge of photographs at this year’s Red Hill Show. Yanni will also be displaying some of his own digitally produced images at the exhibition in January. The exhibition will be the 42nd run by Mornington Rotary, with a gala opening on Friday 17 January at the Peninsula Community Theatre, corner Nepean Highway and Wilsons Rd in Mornington. The exhibition ends Monday 27 January. “We see the inclusion of photographs as a natural artistic expansion for our 42nd show, which will bring opportunities for all photographers to display and sell their work,” Mornington Rotarian Alan Harwood said. “We have chosen three categories believing they are interesting for both artists and popular for the visitors to our show. “This form of artistry opens up a whole new world of fine art for us
all, and we will welcome as many entries as we can professionally display. Prizes for each category will be $300.” Tickets to the exhibition opening are available online or at Camerons Menswear and Farrell’s Bookshop, both in Main St, Mornington. Since its inception, the art exhibition has raised close to $900,000 for Mornington Rotary Club projects such as as student scholarships, senior citizens’ welfare, yachts for people with a disabilities organised by Mornington Yacht Club, building four gazebos and helping science-based education for students. Artists participating in the exhibitions have received more than $1.5 million for their works. For details and how to enter works in the Mornington Art Exhibition go to www.morningtonartshow.com.au

Dolphins under scrutiny Western Port
We’re ready to tailor a home loan package for you Hastings & District Community Bank® Branch is doing deals on home loans – and it’s all about getting you a better deal.
THE Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute has started a “citizen science” program to provide a three-hour snapshot of the activities of dolphins, birds and seals as well as humans. The initial program is looking at activities in Port Phillip from Mt Eliza to Mt Martha. On Sunday 24 November volunteers worked at the Ranelagh Club in Mt Eliza, Mills Beach and Schnapper Point Lookout in Mornington and Mt Martha Yacht Club. “We had a fleet of special marine binoculars with built-in compasses and sight-lines that enable the precise location of sightings,” the
institute’s director Jeff Weir said. He said the sighting of dolphins at three of the four sites “validates the methodology and the involvement of volunteers”. Mr Weir said the citizen science program would next year be extended and held on regular days at more locations. For details about joing the dolphin watching program or the institute’s Adopt-A-Dolphin gifts for Christmas plan, call the Dolphin Research Institute on 1300 130 949 or visit www. dolphinresearch.org.au

The man’s licence was suspended for six months, while the Ford Falcon sedan he was driving was issued with a defect notice. Later the same evening, police caught a further
bined jam,” organiser William Schaefer said. “Performers can bring chord charts and words for their favourite songs.” Mr Schaefer said stage time at the open mic gave performers a chance to “gain confidence in front of an appreciative and supportive audience”. “They can choose their genre, feel the love, whatever floats their boat, or just sit back and enjoy the entertainment.” The PLUMS open mic will runs midday5pm, Sunday 8 December at Carrum Senior Citizens Club, 38 Valetta St (Melway 97 D7).

Artist’s eye of approval
It was a bitter-sweet day for fans of big band music at Peninsula Community Theatre last Wednesday when the Victoria Police Showband and Pipe Band entertained members of Mornington Police Senior Community Register for the final time. Three police bands (including Code 1) will disband on 31 December following Chief Commissioner Ken Lay’s decision to return band members to traditional police work. Police bands have entertained community register members since 1999 and people at last week’s concert gave band members a rousing cheer. Picture: Yanni

BEST VALUE IN NEW AREA Superb near level ¾ acre allotment in Tyabb. Fully fenced and ready to go. Set in quiet cul-de-sac with tranquil rural views to north aspect which cannot be built out. Best value for money in this new & prestigious area with all services including NBN connection.
PRICE REDUCED We think this is the best block in this quality new development at Tyabb but it hasn’t sold, so for the first time our vendor has reduced the price. The most elevated of all the ¾ acre allotments in this fully serviced quality new area, this property overlooks a pleasant lake with the park across the road and is to have a screen fence erected by neighbour to the north. When the original farmer was looking for a site to build a home this is the spot he chose with a quality outlook. Only 3 left in this area.
PRETTY AS A PICTURE Situated opposite pretty park with lake and plenty of bird life we think this ¾ acre property offers the best outlook to the north and south. Situated on high side of the street with all services available (including NBN connection) it is hard to go past this quality allotment. Northerly aspect cannot be built out as Urban Growth Boundary for the whole of Melbourne runs along the boundary. Fenced on 1 side already with screen fencing to be erected by neighbour the shed next door will not be visible once additional side fence has been erected.

Hotelier’s threat to sue over beach Not like good old days: Melbourne broadcaster and former newspaper editor Neil Mitchell returned to the Rosebud beach of his childhood on Friday and spent most of his radio show asking people why Port Phillip beaches are eroding. Picture: Gary Sissons

Melbourne and surrounding areas switch on 10 December 2013*
Last week to switch! The final countdown to digital-only TV has begun The analog TV switch off is happening on 10 December 2013* – and there’s no turning back. After this date you won’t see anything if you’re not ready for digital-only TV.
What do I have to do? Remember, to keep watching free-to-air TV shows, you’ll need either: • one set-top box or a digital TV recorder for each analog TV you use; or • a new TV with a built-in digital tuner. Most importantly, you do not have to buy a new TV if you do not want to. Most antennas and cabling should work after the digital switchover. However, if you have any concerns about your reception, you may consider asking an endorsed Antenna Installer to check your antenna and cabling. If you have any other questions, or to find your nearest endorsed Antenna Installer, visit our website or call the Digital Ready Information Line.
Don’t put it off any longer. Get ready for digital TV today. *Please note: switch off may occur earlier in some towns. Residents in these towns will be informed about the switchover dates. See the website for more information.

Western Port News 3 December 2013
By Mike Hast MILLIONAIRE Portsea Hotel owner Chris Morris says he will sue the state government if it doesn’t fix Portsea’s badly eroded front beach. The founder of share registry firm Computershare, reported to be worth $555 million, made the claim on Neil Mitchell’s 3AW radio show on Friday, which was broadcast from a caravan near Rosebud pier. Mr Mitchell devoted his show to the erosion of beaches on the peninsula side of Port Phillip, much of which has occurred since dredging of The Heads and South Channel in 2008-09. The broadcaster said he spent his first four years living in Rosebud. His father was principal of Rosebud Primary School and the family lived in the school grounds. “I remember spending many happy hours on a wide, beautiful beach but now it is sandbagged. I want to find out if it’s dredging, climate change or a natural cycle,” he said. Mr Morris, 65, followed Mr Mitchell’s interviews with state Environment Minister Ryan Smith and Port of Melbourne CEO Stephen Bradford, both of whom denied dredging was the cause of erosion, despite two reports released in July that concluded increased swell coming into Port Phillip from Bass Strait was occurring because of dredging and that it was the real culprit for the devastating erosion at Portsea. The first report, by environmental consultant Water Technologies, found that dredging, also known formally as the channel deepening project (CDP), had created channels that allowed larger and more powerful waves to sweep into the beach. A second report, by the CSIRO, which reviewed all consultants’ reports that led the Office of the Environmental Monitor to claim dredging was not the cause of Portsea erosion, was commissioned following pressure from Nepean Ratepayers Association president Colin Watson and Portsea residents including Chris Morris. The CSIRO found a change in local wave conditions was the likely cause of erosion at Portsea but it could not be measured accurately due to a lack of “long wave records at Portsea beach that predate the erosion event and CDP”. “It is conceivable that the CDP may have increased the height of waves impacting the beach at Portsea and therefore some degree of attribution to the CDP is possible.” The CSIRO called for additional wave data to be collected. A Department of Environment and Primary Industries contractor installed three high-tech wave monitoring buoys off Portsea. The information will be fed into a computer modelling program and the results handed to the state government next year. On Friday, Chris Morris said he was disappointed with comments made by Ryan Smith and Stephen Bradford. Both men blamed Portsea erosion on more severe weather. They said loss of Port Phillip beaches was cyclical and sand would return, including at Portsea, but could not say when. Mr Morris said they were “paranoid about being sued” over the destruction of Portsea beach. “We need to get some real information about why 400-year-old moonah trees growing 100 metres from the shore on Point Nepean have been eroded,” he said. “We need to get it fixed.” Earlier in the show, federal Environment Minister Greg Hunt, a resident of Mt Martha, where massive erosion has occurred in recent times including this year, agreed with the findings of the CSIRO report but defended Ryan Smith’s statements. Smith, Bradford and Hunt all deflected discussion about dredging and erosion by saying water quality in Port Phillip had improved in recent years. Neil Mitchell interviewed several peninsula residents including Judy Muir, of Polperro dolphin swims, who said dredging had damaged and changed Port Phillip; Jenny Warfe of dredging opponent Blue Wedges Coalition, who said the two recent reports had vindicated Blue Wedges’ opposition to CDP; and Warren Neale, who owned the Portsea–Queenscliff passenger ferry 1975-2003 and said he had made 40,000 visits to Portsea pier and that the government “should put back the rocks it removed” as this was the only way to stop the beach eroding further. The project started this week.
100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Fire excites at Frankston station; cyclist narrowly avoids death Compiled by Matt Vowell From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 6 December 1913 Considerable excitement was caused in Frankston on Friday afternoon, when the firebell was heard to ring. The fire was located at the railway station, and the brigades were quickly on the scene, but when they arrived the railway officials had the fire well under control. The outburst was caused by the painters, who are burning off the paint preparatory to re-painting, and the fire apparently went through from the outside to the old wood inside. Luckily little damage was done. *** An accident occurred at the level crossing near Tanti on Wednesday last, happily without serious result to the participant. As the train from Mornington was going across the crossing a motor cyclist, who apparently had not noticed the train dashed into it. The cycle was very badly damaged, but when the train pulled up it was found that the rider had escaped without a scratch. *** The Frankston Brass Band gave another enjoyable concert last Saturday evening in Station Street. A collection was taken up for the uniform fund, and realised one guinea, of this Mr G. W. Wells generously donated 10s 6d. The Band will play in Bay Street tonight (Saturday), weather permitting. *** At the Mornington Y.M.C.A., on Friday, 28th November, the syllabus item was a ladies’ night, and passed off most enjoyably. In consequence
of the great number of invitations accepted it was found necessary to hold the function in St. Peter’s school room, which was kindly offered by the Rev. Mr Sandiford. About 60 ladies and gentlemen were present and were well pleased with the musical programme, the parlour games and the refreshments, which were supplied by Mr Bieri. *** On Tuesday, November 25th, Major, Mrs and the Misses Campbell entertained the boys of the Melbourne Seaside Home at “Amesfield Park”, Mornington. The boys were driven from the State school through Frankston in cabs, which were provided by the hosts, to their residence. They were treated to an abundance of good things such as cakes, lollies, fruit and motor rides. Games of all kinds were much appreciated. On leaving the boys gave three cheers for Major and Mrs Campbell. *** As reported in our last issue, Dr Plowman was at the last meeting of the show committee elected treasurer in place of Mr F. G. Chamberlin, who resigned. The chairman, Captain Sherlock, expressed his great regret at Mr Chamberlin’s resignation, and asked members if they thought he would reconsider his decision. It was not thought likely, however, and the resignation was perforce accepted with regret. Mr Chamberlin has held the position for about 12 years, and always carried out his duties in a most satisfactory and faithful manner. *** There was only a moderate attendance at the euchre party and dance
held in the Frankston Mechanics’ hall on Wednesday evening last, in aid of the band uniform fund. A pleasant time was spent, however, and all appeared to thoroughly enjoy themselves. The first prizes in the euchre tournament were annexed by Mr B. Roberts (7 games), and Miss L. Gould
Messrs Brody and Mason will conduct their usual monthly sale at Somerville on Wednesday next, when they will offer horses, cattle, sheep, pigs and sundries.
(7 games), while Mr and Mrs Verney accounted for the “booby” prizes. After supper had been handed round dancing was commenced. The band, under their energetic bandmaster, Mr E. C. Hammond, rendered several selections in first-class style outside the hall, and under Secretary Guumes,
they played for several dances. The secretary of the ladies committee (Mrs A. C. Millard) and Mr F. Hanton also assisted with the music for the dancing. *** A social evening in connection with the Frankston Branch of the A.W.N.L., was held in the local Mechanics’ Hall on Saturday evening last. There was a good attendance, Dr Maxwell occupying the chair. A splendid programme by visiting and local artists was gone through, and judging by the applause, each item greatly pleased those present. Mrs Bolitho, the assistant secretary of the League, gave a short address, which was listened to attentively, and at its conclusion the speaker received well merited applause. After the programme had been gone through, supper, provided by the ladies, was handed round, and was thoroughly enjoyed. Dancing was then indulged in for a couple of hours. The next social under the auspices a of the A.W.N.L. is being eagerly looked forward to. *** Messrs Brody and Mason will conduct their usual monthly sale at Somerville on Wednesday next, when they will offer horses, cattle, sheep, pigs and sundries. *** Miss Emily Meredith, surgeondentist, of Chapel Street, Prahran, intimates by advertisement that she will receive patients at Mr J. Nott Marsh’s office, Frankston, every Saturday, between the hours of 10:30 a.m. and 9 p.m. ***
The recently built Municipal tea rooms, which are to be taken charge of by Mrs Jacobs and Misses Laurissen and Myers, are to be opened by the President of the Shire (Cr J. D. Hodgins) this (Saturday) afternoon, at 4 o’clock. The public are cordially invited to the opening ceremony. *** A man named Neil O’Conner, who was arrested by Constable Montgomery on Sunday last, for being drunk, was fined 5s. On Tuesday the same constable arrested a man, named Thos Bamford, and he was fined 5s for being drunk and 10s for using insulting words. *** Mr T. S. Marshall, Chief Officer of the Country Fire Brigades’ Board, has forwarded the following satisfactory report to the Frankston brigade, after having inspected that place a week or two ago:- There was a fairly good muster for inspection, 11 members out of 16 being present. As this brigade has to depend entirely on its manual engine for fire extinction purposes, I paid special attention to practices suitable for that appliance, and as the night was a fine one we did, all the work outside. My new engine practices for five and three men were explained, and they were carried out intelligently and smartly. The disabled hose practice, which is a good as one for one man, especially for young men to carry out, was entered in too with great keenness. This brigade is under good management. The captain and his officers are capable and experiences firemen, and the rank and file and fire are all workers.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT
The item at the top of my bucket list By Stuart McCullough TRAVEL – when done properly – is much like warfare. The element of the surprise should always be paramount. Whether you’re hooking the caravan to the back of the car and heading to Merimbula or invading France, no one should ever know you’re coming. That’s why you must always begin in the dead of night. The similarities between holidays and ground-based military incursions don’t end there. As kids, not only did holidays begin with us being ripped from our slumber in the dead of night, we were also forced to wear fatigues and camouflage paint. Little wonder people thought we were weird. Nothing pleased my father more than an early start. It was as though tearing his family out of bed before the sun had begun to think about rising was an achievement on par with memorising the Encyclopedia Britannica or building a replica of the city of Venice entirely out of used Paddle Pop sticks while blindfolded. Ideally, he’d want us to reach Albury by breakfast. Aside from paramilitary clothing, we were each allowed a bag, our pillow and some kind of personal item to make the long journey ahead seem just that little bit shorter. But there was one item that always travelled with us, whenever we left Tyabb and ventured into the far wider world. As we were buckled into our seats at four o’clock in the morning, our parents would do a quick check. Should we set off without somebody’s tooth-
brush, we could always buy another one. If someone forgot their pillow, that was just bad luck. We could even leave one of my siblings back in the house and – depending on how far we’d already travelled – it was a fiftyfifty proposition as to whether we’d return. But we never went anywhere without an empty ice cream container. Once it would have held litres of
delicious ice cream. Chances are, it would have been Neapolitan – the most democratic and even-handed of all the ice-cream flavours. But once rinsed, the now-empty ice-cream container would be relocated to the van and re-christened, ‘the Chuck Bucket’ or, ‘the Bucket’ for short. Oddly enough, ‘the Bucket’ was also the original name given to the Nissan
E-20, before the powers that be decided it would be easier to market an affordable people-mover if it sounded like a strain of e-coli rather than something you might water the plants with. The Chuck Bucket, however, served a very different purpose and was always on hand in the event that something should go wrong. That’s because ‘the Bucket’ served one purpose and one purpose only – it existed solely in the event that one us should feel like throwing up. There is something about long-distance travel that never fails to induce nausea. Sometimes travel sickness is caused by foolishly attempting to read when the road is winding or the surface uneven. On other occasions, we would feel sick because we were forced to consume tablets that were intended to prevent motion sickness but, in an irony that must surely have become apparent during the testing stage, invariably made you want to throw up. Whatever the cause, the Chuck Bucket was always on hand. The responsibility for demanding the Bucket rested with each individual. In the event that you felt something begin to stir in the pit of your stomach, you were expected to request ‘the Bucket’. Any such request would set off a flurry of activity in which various brothers and sisters would scramble to find the empty ice cream container and move it in to position before the technicolour yawn had a chance to begin. However, a request for the bucket should not be confused with a request
to stop the vehicle. Indeed, my father would always plough on, firmly believing that the only circumstance that would necessitate pulling the car over would be to empty the bucket. Until then, it was full steam ahead. My sister, Rebecca, holds the alltime record in our family. We were heading up to Queensland or driving some other great distance that, by rights, ought to be well beyond a Nissan E-20 and had been woken up thirty-seven minutes after being sent to bed. Our father was muttering something about ‘beating the traffic’ and we were quickly dressed in our fatigues, forced to eat travel sickness tablets and apply camouflage makeup. Safely buckled up, we began the marathon journey. However, we were yet to reach the end of the drive before my sister requested ‘the Bucket’ and proceeded to send the travel sickness tablets back from whence they came. Suffice to say, my father had to pull over the car. When I eventually bought a car of my own, I made sure there was oil in engine, a spare tyre in the boot and an empty ice-cream container in the backseat. At that time, I had no need for four litres of Neapolitan ice cream. I simply needed a Chuck Bucket of my very own. It seemed quite an adult thing to do. These days, I no longer carry an empty bucket in case of emergency. I doubt my father does either. His ice cream containers now only hold ice cream. As well they should. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Bow to the King of Sorrento PROVINCIAL By IT Gully SORRENTO’S AJ King almost single-handedly bowled Sorrento to victory against MT ELIZA in Provincial cricket on Saturday. The opening paceman bowled 31 overs for the Sorras and finished with 15 maidens and sensational figures of 6/43. The Mounties were chasing just 175 for victory after their bowlers did a great job last week against one of the league’s best. However, despite batting 92.1 overs on Saturday, the Mounties could only muster 160. King was well supported by Nick Davern, who bowled 22 overs for a return of 2/41, while Ryan O’Connor snared 1/33 from 22.1 overs. The Mounties got away to a superb
start, the opening pair of Ben Tracy (27) and Tom Ewing (55no) getting 64 on the board before King struck. What followed were four quick wickets and the Mounties were on the back foot at 5/107. Tom Baron offered some resistance at the end but lacked support. Sorrento maintains its position on top of the table, eight points clear of Mornington and now 20 points clear of Langwarrin in third place. BAXTER was back to its best with the ball once again on Saturday against old foe PENINSULA OLD BOYS, knocking the home side over for just 162. Chasing 234 for victory, the Old Boys were never in the hunt, thanks largely to the efforts of Baxter opening bowlers Dale Irving and Adrian Mack. Irving claimed 3/50 from 12 overs
while Mack was back from his hamstring strain and bowled 20 overs and finished with figures of 3/33. Ben Smith also snared 3/33 from 14 overs, giving him 10 scalps for the season. Jon Forrest was the only Old Boys batsman who looked comfortable, top scoring with 44, while Cameron Macauley again proved he was a handy lower order bat, scoring 26. MOOROODUC was never in the hunt against LONG ISLAND in their match. Set a whopping 410 for victory, the Ducs were rolled for just 131, the Islanders’ Andrew Tweddle was at his best with 6/32. The Williams boys, Nick and Ben, top scored for the Ducs with 33 and 32 respectively. CRIB POINT sits in fourth place on the ladder after smashing MT
MARTHA in an outright victory. The Magpies were only three runs from victory at the close of play on Day 1 after dismissing the home side for just 118. The Pies raced to 9/157 off 45 overs before sending the Reds back into bat. Mt Martha scored just 95 in 46.2 overs in its second dig, Brad Davidson picking up four wickets for the Pies, Glenn Barclay three wickets and Luke Herrington a couple. Left with just 50-odd runs to score to claim the outright win, the Pies scored 5/60 in 16.4 overs. RYE was unable to take advantage of the wonderful work from its bowlers in week one of their match against HEATHERHILL. The Demons dismissed the Hills for 125 on day one but were reeling at 3/45 overnight. Things didn’t get much better on
day two, the Demons rolled for just 116. At one stage, the Demons were 7/116, needing just 10 runs with three wickets and had plenty of overs in hand. However, Meagher claimed 3/0 to wrap things up. Of his eight wickets, three were lbw and two were bowled. Matty Meagher was simply superb for the Hills, the skipper claiming 8/56 from 23 overs, giving him 21 wickets for the season, along with 127 runs, batting in the middle order. MORNINGTON finished off LANGWARRIN by chasing down the 150 needed for victory. The Doggies didn’t have things all their own way during the day but did finish comfortable winners, scoring 9/231.
Close attention: Hastings battled back against Carrum to win their one-day District match.
Braves still alive after Flinders win DISTRICT By IT Gully BADEN POWELL picked up a much-needed win against FLINDERS to keep its District season well and truly alive. In a very closely contested season after five rounds, the win sees the Braves in the middle order on the ladder, just a game outside of the top four. Things didn’t look great for the Braves at the beginning of the day, resuming at 3/38, chasing just 123 for victory. However, a number of batsmen got starts for Baden Powell and it was enough to get them to 179. Josh Waldron top scored with 36, Blake Hillman scored 24 batting at nine and Sam Mullavey dug deep in the middle order to score 23.
PAGE 56
Flinders used eight different bowlers to try and force a result their way. Matt Burns was the best of them with 4/42 from 19.2 overs. MAIN RIDGE pulled-off a sensational victory against SOMERVIILE to sneak into the top four. The Ridge were in all sorts of trouble overnight against the Eagles, resuming at 3/22. Chasing 190 for victory, things looked grim for the home side. However, a 128-run partnership between skipper Brendan Rossborough (64) and league legend Gareth Wyatt (76) turned the match on its head. A couple of quick wickets swung the game back in Somerville’s favour momentarily with the score at 6/167. But then the home side steadied. Michael Holmes (37) was a handy bat to have coming in at seven and together
Western Port News 3 December 2013
with James Abbott (14), they steered the Ridge to victory. Jack Kennedy and Russell Wilkes each claimed three wickets for the Eagles. HASTINGS came from nowhere to pick up the 12 points against CARRUM in their one-day clash. The Blues batted first and scrambled to 96 after at one stage being 5/15. Luke Hewitt came to the rescue with 45 for the Blues in the middle order to at least give the bowlers a target to bowl to. The Lions then lost their final five wickets for 20 runs to fall four runs short of victory. Isuru Dias claimed 4/16 for the Blues while Mitch Floyd and Hewitt picked up two wickets each. Josh Dent top scored for the Lions with 28. PINES sits comfortably in the top
bracket after an effortless victory against SEAFORD. After scoring 266 in week one of the match (Ricky Ramsdale 80), the Piners then went about rattling the Tigers’ cages, dismissing them for just 92. After doing the job with the bat, Ramsdale was at his best with the ball also, snaring 3/17 from 13 overs, while Nick Wilcox and Pat Jackson each took a couple of wickets. In their second dig, Pines finished at 4/131, Jeremy Weare top scoring with an unbeaten 39. DELACOMBE PARK sits at the top of the District table after picking up an easy outright win against BALLAM PARK. The Parkers dismissed the Knights for 97 last week and were 1/44 overnight. The visitors quickly got to 6/195
with Chris Brittain scoring 56, Andrew Christides 32 and Shane Deal an unbeaten 31. The Knights were back at the crease for just 34 overs before they were rolled again for 81. Brittain snared 4/33, Brett Chard 2/8 in his return game for his junior club and Virun Singh and Shane Deal two wickets each. Chris Brittain has 19 wickets and 177 runs for the season. SEAFORD TIGERS had little trouble getting the 12 points against BONEO. Defending 8/294, the Tigers bowled out Boneo for just 129. Corey Hand was again superb with 4/25 from 16 overs while David James helped himself to 3/18. Ryan Jellie top scored for Boneo with 37.

No falling for third placed Skye SUB-DISTRICT By IT Gully SKYE is in third place on the Sub District table after easily accounting for FRANKSTON YCW on Saturday. Defending 208 for victory, Skye was always in control of the match and eventually bowled out the home side for 162. Teenager Jack Greenwood was a shining light for the Stonecats with an unbeaten 70. Unfortunately for the 18-year-old opener, he ran out of partners along the way. Luke Hutchison tried to offer some support and resistance, scoring 31. Rob Bedford was bowled by Paul Fillipone for eight and Jason Bedford was Fillipone’s second victim. Ben Milano was the best of the Skye bowlers with 3/26, Pat Clinch finished with 3/46 and Leigh Smith and Fillipone snared two each. Despite the loss, the Stonecats are still just a game outside the top four. PEARCEDALE kept its season alive by beating ROSEBUD. The Panthers scored 9/203 in week one of their match and their bowlers backed up that good work on Saturday. The Buds were bowled out for 173, Kaine Smith claiming 4/36 for the Panthers and Shayne Gillings taking
4/54. RED HILL maintains its position at the top of the ladder after a strong victory against TYABB. In a highly entertaining one day match, the Hillmen batted first and scored 6/164 from its 40 overs. Simon Dart was the chief run scorer with an unbeaten 69, while Glenn Collett scored 33. Luke Rus was the best of the Yabbies’ bowlers with 3/20 from seven overs. The Yabbies started slowly in the chase, losing 4/31, before Steven Hall (42) and Sam Taranto provided them with some hope. Brent Martin stepped up to the plate for the Hillmen though with the ball, claiming 4/38. Eventually, the Yabbies were bowled out 10 runs short for 154. CARRUM DOWNS and DROMANA also played a cliffhanger one-day match. The Hoppers batted first and would have been reasonably happy with the 4/159 from 40 overs. However, the Cougars were up for the batting challenge and got the winning runs in the final over. Josh Harkness top scored for Carrum Downs with 55 and Stuart Putson provided great support with 33. In the final match, TOOTGAROOK got the 89 runs needed to beat BALNARRING.

Four teams grinners and winners CRIB POINT CC By The Prez THE Crib Point rooms were abuzz on Saturday night after the club completed a clean sweep with all four senior grade teams victorious. Provincial First: Needing just 3 runs for victory against Mt Martha, the team went looking for quick runs in the hope of securing a rare outright win. It took only 3 balls for Crib to pick up the win courtesy of a brave Brad Davidson, who had recovered from a week of illness with sore guts, to clip the ball over mid-on for 3. The pedal was then put down as Crib quickly took the score from
5/116 at the start of the day to 9/157 when the declaration was made. Davidson, top-scorer for the innings, picked up 35 and Neil Clarke a quick 13. Heading out to bowl with a lead of 39, Crib was looking to quickly remove Mt Martha’s top order. The first breakthrough came with the score on 8, when Glenn Barclay removed middle stump. Mt Martha was soon 4/37, all bowled, and in trouble. With Barclay (2/20 from 10 overs), Luke Herrington (2/16 from 14) and Davidson (5/36 from 15) continuing to apply pressure Mt Martha crumbled and, despite a 10th wicket partnership of 38, was out for 95.
Crib Point needed 57 runs with 25 overs remaining. There were a few speed bumps, but the outright was gained in the 17th over with the score at 5/60. Provincial Seconds: The team returned to Crib Point on Saturday hoping to chase down Mt Martha’s 168. On 19, Shaun Cairns was bowled for 12 and when Ben Watson (16) was bowled, Crib was in trouble at 3/39. Captain Michael Cook was joined by Shaun Blake and they batted with patience until Blake was out for 20. Crib took control and despite losing wickets at regular intervals, reached 168 thanks to a brilliant 63 from Troy Gorton.
The classy left hander was supported by Cook (28) and Scott “Phil Bung” Sparkes batting at 10 with blistering 28 not out. A3: There are days in cricket where it all goes right for a player. In this round Sam Adams had two of them. Last week he was the main destroyer with the ball taking 5/28 and helping Crib roll Hastings for 96. This week, returning to the crease at 45 not out, Adams not only saw Crib over the line for the victory, but also notched up his maiden century, making 107. Also in the runs with the team compiling 7/215 were James Cook with 30 and Ben “Todd Hoffman” Dunkley with 29 not out.
C2: Winning the toss, Crib Point elected to bowl first against Ballam Park in what proved to be a wise decision. Crib was dominant, tearing through Ballam Park for 65. Steve Peacock had 2/28 from 10 overs, but the main man was Jack Johnson, in his first game of the year, with 7/29. When it was time to bat, despite being 6/49 at one stage, Crib took the victory, passing Ballam Park 7 down. The best of the bats, Jack Johnson, following up great work with the ball, made 21, Stuey Meyles 16 and Damien Moresco 13 not out.
Blues win a three-run thriller HASTINGS CC
By Greg Bradshaw HASTINGS Firsts played Carrum in a 40-over match, after week one of a two-day game was washed out, and came away with a narrow victory. It was looking grim for Hastings when it was reduced to 5/15 in the 10th over. Luke Hewitt and Tim Birch stopped the rot with a hard-nosed 44 runs, taking the score to 6/59 in the 18th over. Another quick wicket then Hewitt fell for a well-made 45 and it was 8/67 with 18 overs to be bowled. Mitch Floyd 11no and Issy Dias 12 showed the top order how to grind out an innings. They put on 26 runs but got the score to 96 and something to defend. Dias and Floyd opened the bowling and Dias knocked over an opener first ball of the Carrum innings. The next pair put on 21 before Dias
struck again. Hewitt was introduced and struck immediately, thanks to a brillant catch by Ben Johnson, 3/21 in the 12th over. Another 21-run partnership before the other opener was run out, 4/42. Then it was 5/58 and 6/73 before Floyd came back into the attack. Dias also came back at the other end, took a wicket, was hit for six, then knocked the batsmen over and it was 8/81. When Dias hit the stumps it was 9/83. In the 40th over, which Floyd bowled, a leg glance went for three runs and it was 9/93. His next ball saw the leg stump cartwheeling out of the ground and it was victory by three runs. Dias finished with 4/16 from 10 overs, Floyd 2/27 from 9.3, Hewitt 2/15 from 10, Tim Birch 0/23 off 8 tidy overs. Man of the match: Mitch Floyd. The Seconds posted a solid 9/219
off 80 overs on day one with Brendan Jenkinson scoring 49. Carey Sawosz and Liam Bradshaw opened the bowling against a solid opening partnership. Bradshaw claimed the first wicket at 33. Stevie Robb claimed the next two wickets and it was 3/66 after 33 overs. Wickets continued to fall at regular intervals with Brent Magill (1/9) and Jaysen Bradshaw (1/4) having success. Then 5/113 became 6/157 and 8/167. With 8 overs left, Carrum needed 53 runs. Then it was 16 needed off the last over, which saw a dot ball, 6, 6, dot ball and five needed off the last – a full toss that went for 3 byes and a win by one run. Bradshaw took 3/49 off 18 overs, Robb 2/36 12 overs and Sawosz 1/52 off 19 overs. Man of the match: Brendan Jenkinson.
Western Port
The Thirds played Crib Point with Hastings batting like “millionaires” to be bowled out for a paltry 96. Crib resumed at 3/82, quickly had the game won and batted for the rest of the day. The bowlers kept Crib to 7/215 off 80 overs. The Fourths defeated Mt Martha, which made 97 off 34 overs. Chris Marsh took 3/11, Matt Sawosz 3/23, Steven Lewis 2/31 and Andrew Finn 1/17. Hastings opened with Darweyn Bronsema and Glenn Jansz and 12 overs later the game was won with Jansz smashing 70no and Bronsema making 22no. Men of the match: Glenn Jansz and Chris Marsh. Under-16s played Heatherhill, which made 9/157 after being 3/15 in the 7th over. Aaron King took 3/21 off 7 overs, Mason Mail 3/23 off 6. Under-14 Cooper Dehaas took 2/13 off 3 overs and Sean Hewitt 1/6 off 5.
Under-14s played Rye, which made 8/77 off 40 overs. With Alex Walters and Shelby Lothian-Burdett away on representative duties, the boys did a good job to contain Rye. Bayde Wilson took 2/11, Cooper Dehaas, after his wickets in the Under-16s, took 3/2, Jackson Coles 2/10 and Thomas Finn took 1/5. Under-12s played Crib Point. Hastings scored 8/182, which included 60 extras. Patrick Wilson made 50no, Thomas Finn 23 ret, Matthew Dodd 13 and Nicolas Gregg 11no. Under-10s travelled to Flinders, which scored 4/51 with Jake, Bailey and Lochie taking wickets. Hastings replied with 4/13. Christmas breakup at the club is at 7pm on Saturday 14 December.
