State cash for port By Mike Hast THE proposed expansion of the Port of Hastings was given a boost on Wednesday when the state government promised $110 million over four years. New Premier Denis Napthine visited Hastings with his new Ports Minister, David Hodgett, and said the money would help “complete the work required to start building a world-class container port with land-side transport connections at Hastings”. The money would be spent on

“completion of preferred scope”, design, transport connection planning, early work to support environmental approval processes, business case development and “procurement and delivery strategies”. Dr Napthine said the port was a key component of Victoria’s future economic strategy. “We came to Hastings today with great news for Victorian jobs, the economy and the local community,” the Premier said. Decisive action was being taken to

build a second Victorian container port and “ensure the state remains the freight and logistics capital of Australia”. Dr Napthine said container trade in the state was expected to quadruple by 2035. “In the 1960s, the former Liberal Premier Sir Henry Bolte had the vision and foresight to set aside almost 4000 hectares of land at Hastings for future port development,” he said. The land and deep water meant Hastings was best suited for a container port.

Dr Napthine was referring to recent moves by western suburbs councils and transport and logistics companies promoting the so-called Bay West option, a new port between Point Wilson near Geelong and Werribee South. Last September, a confidential Department of Transport briefing urged the government to consider Bay West, claiming a terminal at Hastings was potentially fraught with environmental and logistical problems. The government’s preferred Hastings option would involve “complex

environmental management requirements”, a “high cost” of transport links and would cost more than $12 billion. It warned Hastings could prove too small by 2050, especially if the state government pushed ahead with plans to expand brown coal exports from the Latrobe Valley through Western Port. At Hastings on Wednesday, Mr Hodgett said the new port would have capacity for 8-9 million containers, “almost double the current capacity of the Port of Melbourne”. Continued Page 4

End-of-season trip of a lifetime By Jo Winterbottom AS cricketers around Australia pack away the willow for another year, Spencer Wilton is deep in training for the tour of a lifetime. The 15-year-old all-rounder of Bittern is one of 15 youngsters chosen by the Mornington Peninsula Cricket Association to tour the United Kingdom in June and July. It caps off a stellar season on the oval for Wilton, who has played at Balnarring Cricket Club since he took up the bat and ball aged eight. He excelled in the under-15s, where he topped the bowling average and was named best player in the finals, and he was voted Balnarring Cricket Club’s best junior for 2012-13, taking out the Colts Champion trophy. Wilton also accepted the challenge to step into the senior ranks and proved he was no slouch among the big blokes. He was a regular in Balnarring’s third eleven and played one game in the second eleven and took two wickets. He also won a best player award at the recent Victorian Metropolitan Cricket Union carnival, where he represented the MPCA in the under-14 Russell Allen Shield. With best bowling figures of 4/10, a highest score of 53 not out and two junior premierships under his belt, Wilton is sure to be an asset to the UK squad, which is training under coach Steve Chapman. The squad will be based in Durham in the north of England and will play 10 matches in the UK. The three-week tour allows for sightseeing in London, Edinburgh and Blackpool, including a visit to a factory that makes cricket bats.

HASTINGS police are seeking information on an aggravated burglary and an attempted burglary that they believe may be connected. Detective Leading Senior Constable Darren Sherren said the burglars were confronted by the residents of the house in each case. The first incident occurred about 9pm on Thursday 4 April when the occupants of a house in Hilltop Rise, Hastings, disturbed burglars attempting to break into their house. The would-be burglars decamped before the residents could get a good look at them. The second incident was an aggravated burglary a few hours later at a house in nearby Michelle Drive. Detective Sherren said the residents of the house in Michelle Drive – a man and woman – were awoken by noise about 2.30am on Friday 5 April. Burglars had forced a side door of the house and, when confronted by the occupants, ran off with various stolen items. Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Hastings police on 5970 7800.

State money for port expansion Continued from Page 1

Dr Napthine’s claim that Western Port’s natural deep water made it an ideal site for the state’s second container port has been challenged by Westernport and Peninsula Protection Council. President Karri Giles said the Premier had stated Western Port was preferred over the Bay West option because Bay West would need significant dredging. “Western Port would need significant dredging, too,” she said. “This was stated in a document presented to the community reference group. The October 2005 options briefing from the Department of Infrastructure and Maunsell recommended deepening of the channel from 14.3 metres to 16 metres. “The channel is a long way from the proposed wharf and would require dredging. Significant dredging has been proposed just to establish the wharf. Drawings from the document show areas of 1.5 kilometres to more than 4 kilometres long and 600-750 metres wide hatched areas of potential

dredging. In addition there is an 800-metre basin marked in seagrass flats for dry bulk.” Ms Giles said dredging posed “terrible risks as outlined by Melbourne Water’s Western Port scientific study”. “Suspended sediment can kill the plants and animals that are keeping Western Port healthy. Seagrass loss, algal blooms and eutrophication [over-enrichment of water by nutrients] can result.” She said healthy enjoyment of Western Port for fishing, surfing, holidays, camps and tourism was at stake.  The Westernport Peninsula Protection Council was founded in early 1971 after a protest rally at Balnarring Racecourse against a proposed Ampol-Sleigh refinery at Bittern. The council’s aims are to engage in, support and promote: regional and local planning; conservation of natural resources, including fauna and flora; studies of the effects of pollution of all kinds; and protection of the environment.

Smoke signals fire CONTROLLED burns to reduce the risk of bushfires on French Island created a spectacular cloud formation late Saturday afternoon. From Rosebud the cloud appeared to be hovering over the top of Arthurs Seat and alarmed some people travelling across the peninsula toward Hastings until they saw it was emanating from fires on the island. The Department of Sustainability and Environment has earmarked 671 hectares on the island to be burned and locations including Clump Lagoon (70ha), near the airstrip (101ha), the cemetery (138ha) and McLeod West (362ha).

Other burns are planned at Devilbend Natural Feature Reserve near Moorooduc (50ha), Arthurs Seat State Park near St Andrews Ave (11ha), at Frankston North near Peninsula Link freeway (14.5ha) and in the Pines Flora and Fauna Reserve near Millparra Court, Frankston (10ha). Meanwhile, DSE showed off eight prototype firefighting vehicles in Knoxfield on Monday. The vehicles will be tested by firefighters at planned burns around Melbourne as the number of burns increase.

Teens to air with feet grounded THE state government’s $5000 Be Heard! grant to Radio Port Phillip earlier this year has enabled the station to provide work experience for students from across the region. RPP manager Brendon Telfer said the station had pre-empted the grant by introducing a work experience training module that had given young people hands-on experience working in radio. “We were already training students but the Be Heard! grant has enabled the station to take on more young people,” he said. “We have a program called Kidz Hour that is broadcast every Monday from midday. It invites children from primary schools such as Frankston Heights, Kingsley Park, Mornington Park, Rosebud, Somerville Rise and Woodland to talk on radio and have their say, which in turn empowers them.” Year 10 students had spent up to five days at RPP, which is based in the renovated science wing of the former Mornington Secondary College, researching, writing and producing their own voice-overs and news grabs. Two students broadcasted their own program, Teen Time, just before Easter. “It was a one-off but we’ll have more student programs this year including some by media students,” Mr Telfer said. An upcoming debating series was

Burning laws MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire last year changed its local law on burning off in the open. Residents on a property of less than 1500 square metres, which is most residential blocks in the shire, are no longer allowed to burn off. They can use a barbecue or pizza oven to cook food or a fire in a brazier for heating. People on properties of more than 1500sqm can burn off between 9am and 4pm on Fridays and Saturdays as long as no more than 10 cubic metres of vegetation is burnt at one time and the fire is more than 10 metres from a neighbour’s dwelling. To find out the size of a property, call the shire’s customer service officers on 1300 850 600 or 5950 1000 or visit the shire’s PenMaps at www.gisweb.mornpen.vic.gov.au/ penmaps

Taken for a ride MILLING crowds enjoying a perfect autumnal afternoon in Mornington did not deter a thief who made off with a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Mornington police said the motorbike was stolen from outside shops in Albert St, near the corner of Main St, some time between 4 and 5.30pm on Saturday 6 April. Detective Sergeant Rob Whitehouse said the motorcycle was a distinctive blue Harley Davidson 2009 model with a mural of a meditating man painted on the rear wheel guard. The bike is valued at about $50,000. Anyone with information that may be of interest to police can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Mornington police on 5970 4900.

being organised by Peninsula School students, he said. “Kids love media but before now had to travel to Melbourne and work at SYN [Student Youth Network] or RRR.” This was a long trek for students living on the southern peninsula. Mr Telfer said RPP’s application for the Be Heard grant had been supported by peninsula MPs David Morris, Martin Dixon and Neale Burgess.

“With our amazing BlueScope studio, our state-of-the-art studios and production facilities, we can offer young people some real radio time, giving them a powerful voice, helping with their career options and giving them a chance to showcase their talents,” Mr Telfer said. The grant was part of $200,000 over four years to help increase the participation of regional and rural young people from 12 to 25 in producing and

broadcasting radio programs. “Establishing a career in radio broadcasting can be challenging for young people in regional and rural areas. Be Heard helps to provide industry skills while providing a voice for young people over the airwaves,” youth affairs minister Ryan Smith said when he visited the station. For details about Be Heard and work experience at RPP, call Brendon Telfer on 5975 2650.

Greens after new members By Mike Hast MORNINGTON Peninsula branch of the Australian Greens is recruiting members and supporters in the lead-up to the federal election in September. Convenor Malcolm Brown says the branch has shifted its focus to the election but would still support campaigns such as banning dogs on Mornington Peninsula National Park beaches during hooded plover breeding season, protecting Tootgarook Swamp from inappropriate development and opposing the proposed Arthurs Seat quarry rubbish tip. Mr Brown said supporting candidates in every federal seat in Victoria including the seat of Flinders, held by the Opposition’s spokesman for the environment Greg Hunt, was a “big ask for a community-based organisation like the local Greens”. “Fortunately, our small membership base is usually supplemented by a large number of supporters who help at election time, handing out material as well as how-to-vote cards at polling booths on election day,” he said. “One big task is handing out how-to-vote cards at the pre-polling booth for the two weeks prior to the election. This is 10 days of 9am-6pm, which can only be done by people who are not working.” Mr Brown, who has stood at two federal elections but would not be standing in 2013, said the branch had not yet selected candidates to take on Mr Hunt and Bruce Billson in Dunkley. Flinders and Dunkley cover the peninsula with the border on Bentons Rd, Moorooduc Highway, Baxter-Tooradin Rd and Western Port Highway.

“We’re seeking people to support our candidates, to help manage the campaign, distribute leaflets and doorknocking, and myriad other tasks, large and small.” Mr Brown said recent Greens members included Lee Burton, a former RMIT media lecturer now working as a consultant, media analyst and commentator. Ms Burton is head of communications of Peninsula Preservation Group, the main lobby group opposing the planned municipal rubbish tip in an old quarry on the side of Arthurs Seat at Dromana. Greens committee member Martin Rush, who stood against David Morris in Mornington electorate at the 2010 state election, said most people knew the Greens was “the political party with the greatest interest in protecting the natural environment”. “Not everyone knows the Greens also have a full and comprehensive list of policies, both federal and state-based, covering all aspects of life – including economic, social, and national and international issues as well as environmental concerns,” he said. “Fewer people probably know the Greens stand for a different sort of politics in Australia – politics based on policy not mud-slinging; on transparent decision-making not sleazy backroom deals; and on principles not personal or party gain.” He said the branch was looking for community and politically minded residents of any age who would like to “help the party in this crucial year”.

Approval flows for water HQ By Keith Platt THE state government has approved South East Water’s plans to build an eight-storey office block in Frankston. The water corporation’s headquarters will face Port Phillip from the banks of Kananook Creek between Wells and Playne streets. Managing director Kevin Hutchings said the building would be occupied by May 2015. Planning Minister Matthew Guy last week gave the go ahead for the $70 million office block, which has the backing of Frankston Council. The council has come under fire for ignoring its own planning laws and wanting to fast-track the project, which will require ripping up part of the $9 million Kananook Creek Boulevard, opened in February 2010. Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer described the new building as the “catalyst project [that] will rejuvenate our city centre”. “We are reassured the state government sees our potential and has given us a strong vote of confidence by selecting Frankston as the future home for South East Water,” Cr Mayer said. Council sold the land to South East Water for

$4 million, will receive no rates and will pay at least $2 million to reinstate the boulevard. Mr Guy said South East Water’s headquarters “will bring together 700 workers in Frankston’s CBD”. “Frankston has a great potential to become the go-to business centre for Melbourne’s southern suburbs. This building will be a great boost to the Frankston city centre. “The Frankston CBD will be revitalised with hundreds of workers coming in every day, benefiting local small businesses.” South East Water’s managing director Kevin Hutchings said that following final approval of its building plans, the water retailer was looking forward to appointing a builder, starting construction “and ultimately joining the Frankston community in May 2015”. “As part of our move to Frankston, we’ll be bringing our 700 employees, recruiting around 100 jobs each year and developing new partnerships with local service providers, schools and community groups. And of course there will also be a significant boost in jobs during construction of the building.”

NOMINATIONS are open for this year’s Mornington Peninsula Heritage Awards. The awards are made by Mornington Peninsula Shire and the peninsula branch of the National Trust of Australia to recognise people who have shown “excellence in retention, restoration and reuse” of heritage places.

Emu doesn’t mind the racing chainsaws and Mrs Emu doesn’t miss a second of burly axemen slicing through logs in the Pud Holmes woodchop arena, but sheep have now been evicted from the netball pavilion by supercilious alpacas. “And it’s getting so commercial,” Mrs Emu said, gazing at the queues for hamburgers and tiny pancakes. “Look, there’s a stall over there selling an ointment that cures absolutely everything, including corns!” Stunt motorcyclists are soaring high into the air off ramps, thrilling children and causing Emu to wince at the thought of a crash. There were none. The traditional dog high jump structure stood nearby, ready for use. Would there be kelpies herding ducks this year? The Emus spy a new stall, advertising Dutch-made garden tools. Mrs Emu is always on the lookout for a new weapon to subdue the soil. A narrow-bladed spade and a serrated trowel interest her, until she sees the prices. Emu inspects a wood splitter. The tag: “140”: one hundred and forty dollars.

“Too dear, Dear,” she says, but the wood turner over the alley is a local and has ballpoint pens with pretty timber shafts for good prices. Emu loves a new pen. Mrs Emu leads her patient spouse through the fruit, vegetable and flower pavilion, admiring the giant pumpkins – although Emu found one online, hollowed out, being used as a boat – and clucking sadly to see no ribbon on her quinces. They were, of course, of higher quality than the winning fruit. To the big shed, via the pavilion containing the art, handcrafts and bottled fruit, and past the lady with the spinning wheel and the arrogant alpacas. Outside, after a quick glance at the sheep and cattle, Mrs Emu froze. “Rats!” she gasped, hurrying toward the Rat Fanciers Society pavilion. Mrs Emu loves a plump rat, skewered over a camp fire. Emu dashed to intercept. But too late. By the time Emu caught up she was already being firmly ejected for taking a too-close interest in an exhibit. “I was only looking,” she protested, straightening her feathers. “He was a pretty one,”

Not to be missed: Log sawing is among the muscular traditions keenly contested at the Red Hill Show, which also features a glimpse of the rodeo with a bucking, mechanical bull.

she confided to Emu, “but a bit on the thin side.” In a nearby tent, brave boys were riding a mechanical bull, hanging grimly to a short rope in front of them. “Oh, my God!” yelps a chubby lad as the operator speeds up the gyrations and cameras click.

“Oh, my God!” he bellows as the whirring beast ejects him, unhurt. The next lad vaults on confidently and is instantly flung off. There is no fairy floss that Emu can find, and showbags aren’t appealing, and the caterwauling PA system is drilling through the thin Emu skull.

Two-man teams with space-age double-ended handsaws are whizzing through logs as the Emus leave. “It’s still the best show in town,” remarks Mrs Emu, “despite everything, and I’ll be back next year. Remind me to fertilise the quince tree when we get home. Rat for dinner?”

Wild things relying on our backyards IN the wake of wild autumn weather, gardens can provide a safe haven for many birds and animals, says Susanna Bradshaw of the Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife. The foundation’s Backyard Buddies environmental education program provides easy tips on how to make a garden safe and friendly for native animals. “It’s only early in 2013, and yet already a wide range of natural disasters have hit many parts of the county,” she said. “We’ve seen bushfires, floods, heatwaves, cyclones and other extreme weather. “The often-forgotten result of wild weather is many native animals that survived storms and worse are still doing it tough. Their habitats, food sources, and nesting territories have been struck hard. “While affected areas recover, animals and birds may move to new areas to look for food, clean water and shelter. “More than ever, people’s gardens are going to be an important refuge and there’s a lot that you can do to help them out. “For a garden to be an oasis for native animals, it needs to provide good habitat. “To start, take a walk in your nearest natural bush area. Have a look at what plants are around. If you can recreate a patch of that same environment in your own backyard, it will become a haven for native animals. “Next, visit a plant nursery and ask for local native plants. These are best suited to your conditions and won’t need much water or attention. “Don’t just get flowering plants – try to get a few different things such as native grasses, fruiting plants and lots of spikey, spiny bushes.” Ms Bradshaw said one of the most important things to do is plant an understory in the garden. “This is a layer of shrubby plants growing under trees and taller plants. By filling up open and empty areas with dense plantings, native birds and animals will have somewhere to hide and feed, and you’ll see fewer introduced birds.”

“You don’t have to tear out all the non-native plants in the garden to attract birds and animals. Start small by planting a few natives between your existing plants and go from there,” Ms Bradshaw said. “Every locally native plant counts toward looking after our backyard buddies.” Find out more, and sign up for a free e-newsletter at www.backyardbuddies.net.au

Animal refuge: People’s yards are havens for native wildlife that has been affected by recent wild weather such this rainbow lorikeet (Picture: Alan Kaptainkobold).

Animal-friendly  Put up a nest box or two to provide a safe home for native birds, possums and microbats.  Keep cats indoors as much as possible, or invest in a cat run so they can go outside without pouncing on birds. Cats are natural hunters and can take native birds even if wearing a bell on their collar.  Leave leaf litter, rocks, fallen branches and logs around the backyard. This will attract insects, skinks and lizards, which will then attract birds looking for a meal.  Establish a pond for native frogs, fish and water plants. Birds, lizards and other animals will come for a drink and a meal. Mosquitoes that live in water deeper than 30cm don’t bite humans, and fish and frogs in the pond will eat mosquito larvae.  Put in a bird bath and keep it filled with fresh, clean water. Place it next to a dense shrub so small birds that visit for a drink have somewhere close to hide if a predator arrives. The benefits  Native birds will eat insects such as aphids, mosquitoes, grubs, flies and spiders.  Ladybirds will eat bugs on plants for free if you avoid using pesticides.  Kookaburras and larger birds eat snakes.  Owls will eat possums and rodents.  Native bees, birds, insects and bats pollinate flowers and the vegie patch.  The children and other family members will experience animals up close and learn about the natural world.

Shaw’s timing changed state of play By Keith Platt THE balance of power in state parliament might be different today if Ted Baillieu had resigned as premier nine hours earlier on Wednesday 6 March. Frankston MP Geoff Shaw says he would not have quit the Parliamentary Liberal Party to become an independent if Mr Baillieu had been first out the door. Mr Shaw, under investigation by police and the parliament’s privileges committee over the alleged misuse of his taxpayer-funded vehicle and fuel card, handed his letter of resignation to the Deputy Premier Louise Asher nine hours before Mr Baillieu announced he would step down as Premier. “I was surprised, yes,” Mr Shaw told The News. “I wouldn’t have resigned if Baillieu had gone first.” He has not spoken with Mr Baillieu since: “That’s not unusual; Ted was not a good communicator with [MPs on] the backbench.” As with many things political, there are fine degrees of separation. On paper the government holds power with the thinnest of majorities, but Mr Shaw remains a member of the Liberal Party and has made it clear he will not bring down the government by supporting the Labor Opposition. He speaks highly of the new Premier, Denis Napthine, “he will be a terrific leader; he communicates with people, including backbenchers”. Does this mean he will apply to rejoin the parliamentary party and resume his seat alongside his former Liberal colleagues?

Numbers man: When it comes to counting votes, newly independent Frankston MP Geoff Shaw holds the key to the state government’s future. Picture: Keith Platt

“I’ve made my decision for now. We’ll see what happens as time goes on.” Mr Shaw says he is “doing nothing” about establishing an election committee. “I’ll get stuff done for Frankston, that’s my major focus.” As far as he knows, the Liberal Party is not looking for a future Frankston candidate. “But, yes, I will be standing for the next election. I have enough support in Frankston.” Mr Shaw said the Liberal Party branches control money raised by the Frankston electorate’s fundraising organisation, the 1500 Club. “I can’t use it as an independent; it’s

all Liberal Party money.” On the day he resigned Mr Shaw was whisked away from Parliament House by Hastings MP Neale Burgess. While the media was trying to find Mr Shaw, he was dining with two MPs, although he declines to provide their names. He says Mr Burgess was not one of them because “he had to go back to the party room”. Earlier in the day journalists had been looking for him in Frankston “when I was in Parliament all the time”. The sole explanation Mr Shaw gives for his resignation is dissatisfaction with Mr Baillieu’s leadership. “It was my idea that if the ship was not turned we would be a one-term government and it would be best for Frankston for me to be an independent. “People may have taken what I did and expanded on that, but that [Mr Baillieu’s departure] was not necessarily my goal.” Mr Shaw said polls showed Victorians had “lost faith” in the government’s leadership. Despite all the media coverage of investigations into the use of Mr Shaw’s parliamentary vehicle, a Ford Territory, he claims to have no direct or official knowledge of any investigations. “No one has spoken to me,” he said. Geoff Shaw seemed surprised when told that David Morris, a Liberal MP in the neighbouring electorate of Mornington, was a member of the privileges committee investigating the allegations against Mr Shaw. Mr Napthine was the committee’s chairman until being made Premier.

And so it is with the police investigation, Mr Shaw denying any knowledge of it. “It is ridiculous to be running these inquiries without speaking to me. Fancy not being notified except through the media? “I’ve yet to be talked to by any inquiries. No one has approached or communicated in any way. I don’t know who is on any committee. “Why should I worry about stuff like that? I decide my own future.” When asked about being described as a rebel or renegade MP, Mr Shaw adds “rascal” and “maverick” to the list. “Unpredictable was another word journalists pulled from their butt,” he said. “Journalists are looking for new words. They’re trying to get a byline. I can’t control what the media writes. “I try not to worry about things I can’t control.” Mr Shaw frequently returns to the subject of how the media has covered his relatively short parliamentary career. He says his decision to put a sign on the roadside asking his former wife for forgiveness was “a private matter” and should not have been reported. He takes exception to media incorrectly claiming he held a black belt in karate. He is a higher-ranked third dan black belt. Reference to Mr Shaw’s prowess in the martial arts most frequently accompanies reports about an assault charge when he was employed as a

nightclub bouncer in the 1990s as well as his intervention, while an MP, in an altercation between police and a motorist in central Frankston. Mr Shaw says there is still time for him to “look at libels”. His detractors are described as “weedy journalists, bully boys talking tough behind their computers” who, if at school, “would have been dismissed long ago for bullying”. Mr Shaw associates the media’s “picking” on Frankston with coverage given to him: “They still want to pick on Frankston, so they’re picking on me.” Since moving to the cross-benches as an independent, Mr Shaw has been dubbed a powerbroker because his vote is vital to the government’s survival. It has also been stated he is pushing for a better superannuation deal for MPs and reform of abortion laws. He said all MPs had been asked for their views on super by “an independent committee; it’s been going on for months, since last October”. “I don’t know enough about the super scheme to comment,” Mr Shaw, an accountant, said. “I haven’t pushed for changes to abortion. Would you like to see babies being killed up to the time of birth? “The legislation says that can happen. I don’t want to see babies being killed up to birth; leave it at that.” Asked if, in retrospect, he would have done things differently Mr Shaw says “it’s all too hypothetical to write my memoirs right now”.

Professor became a guru

Need a tradie? Turn to the Western Port

Trades and Services section on page

A NEW York literature professor who had a lifechanging episode when a gun was held to his head and started to question what life was about will give a free talk in Rye this month. Russell Michael Kruckman was a Pulitzer scholar at Columbia University in New York when he met American yogi Ram Dass soon after the gun incident. The professor was inspired to travel to India where he met the man who became his guru, Swami Muktananda Paramahamsa, disciple of Bhagawan Nityananda of Ganeshpuri. The professor, also a US chess master, became Swami Shankarananda (Swamiji for short). After studying in India for 12 years, he returned to the United States and headed ashrams in Ann Arbor, Los Angeles and New York before moving to Australia where he founded the Shiva School of Meditation and Yoga in Mt Eliza in 1991. The school is starting a centre in Rye and to mark the opening Swamiji will hold a free talk and meditation session at 7.30-9pm in Rye Civic Hall, Napier St, on Thursday 18 April. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the time our happiness depends on outer success, achieving our goals, and getting what we want,â&#x20AC;? Swamiji said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Meditation shows us it is possible to get in touch with an inner happiness that is independent of external events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you can become happy in this way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;no good reasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; regardless of what is going on in your life, then you can become happy all the time. Oddly enough, if you achieve this kind of inner happiness, your outer life also becomes much better.â&#x20AC;? Swamiji has published many books on meditation, including the bestseller Happy For No Good Reason. In 2010, he was recognised for his work with the prestigious title â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mahamandaleshwarâ&#x20AC;? (great teacher) in India, one of the highest honours bestowed.

FEATURE PROPERTY

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Magnificent estate CLOSE to beautiful beaches, with the most incredible outlook across Western Port Bay, this magnificent rural estate is a rare opportunity to purchase 15.50 hectares of prime peninsula real estate. The land and the extensive accommodation offer potential for a variety of uses such as horse agistment, bed and breakfast (STCA) in the managerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cottage or a place for an extended family. The main home has been built to capitalise on the sea and rural views. Recently renovated, there is a spacious main living area with gas fireplace, casual dining and a superbly appointed kitchen, all flowing out to the sumptuous outdoor entertaining areas and swimming pool. The main bedroom is particularly striking. Rectangular in shape, it is perhaps not the largest main bedroom you will ever see but the feature picture window directs your gaze across lush pastures to the ever-changing seascape. It has an ensuite and walk-in robe. Three more bedrooms share a beautiful main bathroom. The large study has a magnificent wall unit. The second dwelling has a self-contained, one-bedroom home with open-plan living area and kitchen. The third residence is a large, two-bedroom cottage full of character with a main living area and study also making the most of the wonderful views.

Hairs and graces

RECENTLY established but already with an excellent reputation for healthy, fresh food, this cafe and takeaway operates from fullyrenovated premises with all equipment in new condition. Trading hours are six days a week, 7am-4pm. There is seating inside and out with 12 tables - the outdoor tables are under cover - and concertina doors open from the front of the shop. This new business is certainly set to increase.

THIS well-presented business offers haircuts and styling and interestingly for such a business, a wide range of gifts. There are five work stations and at the rear is a massage room for office and storage space. This business is easily operated by one stylist with one person in the gift shop and there is a large base of repeat customers. The business trades Monday to Saturday, 10am-5.30pm

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Tyabb Rail School opens with a luncheon Compiled by Matt Vowell From the pages of the Mornington Standard, April 12th 1913. THE official opening of the new State School on Crescent Road (Tyabb) took place on Monday, 31st March. The day was a little finer than those during the past week and there was a good mustering of parents and children present. After luncheon had been partaken of and an opening chorus sung by the scholars, Mr McLauris, chairman of the school committee, gave a short address, referring to the work of the committee during the past few years and the task they had had in inducing the Department to erect the building which they were now about to open. He wished to specially mention the names of Mr J. McKirdy and Mr Frank Unthank, who although they were not members of the school comittee, had worked very hard and greatly assisted in securing the result that they could now be proud of. He then called on the Hon. A. Downward, MLA, to declare the school open. Mr. Downward said that it afforded him great pleasure to be present. He a wished to congratulate the residents as of Tyabb on posseseing such an up-to-date building for the education of their children. He had been to many country districts where the school buildings were very inconvenient, and in some places there was no school at all. The Department was not altogether to blame for this, the reason being that they were not able to cope with the requirements of the whole State, owing

to the expense. He thought this building would cost the Department about £600. The site was one of the very best, especially as it was so near to the railway station, the place that always formed the centre of country districts The future of the Commonwealth lies with the way in which the present generation is brought up and nothing contributed more than the present system of education, in which every effort was made to interest the child. This school had every advantage that the State could give for the conveniance of both teacher and scholar and it was with great pleasure that he would declare the school now open. Mr McLaurin then read letters from Mr J. H. Young and Mr Reed thanking the committee for their kind invitation to be present, and congratulating them on the success of their efforts. Mr Geo. Griffith also sent an apology for his absence, owing to the urgent business taking him to the city, otherwise he would have been very pleased indeed to have been present. Cr Cole was then called on to give a short address. He said he was very pleased indeed to be present. He remembered that when he was first asked to assist the committee he would take no part in the agitation, as he did not then consider that a new school was necessary. After he had become a member of the board of advice, however, and saw that the school at the hall had no convenience and was very cold in winter, he saw that it was necessary to have a school, as the population of Tyabb was growing very fast, and, in conse-

quence, he sold the piece of ground on which the school was built to the department. Dr Griffith then gave a very interesting address, referring, as the other speakers, to the necessity of a good education, and the training of the the present rising generation. He thought that the present cadet system was a splendid course, as it was apparent in that in the future we might some day have to defend ourselves, and not depend on ‘John Bull,’ as had been the case in the past. Mr White, the school master appointed to the new school, was next called on to speak. He said that he was very pleased indeed to see so many parents present. He felt sure that they would be able to work well together and he was also very pleased with the building in which he had to teach. He would endeavour to do his best for the welfare of the children both as to scholarship and character. It was necessary to teach the children more than merely to put 2 and 2 together. He would try to instill some tone into their character and to bring them up in a way which would carry them safe through the world. *** JOHN Robertson, a man working on the railway tank works at Fraukston, met with an accident on Friday, 4th April, by be falling 15 feet from scaffolding, thereby sustaining a compound fracture of the leg. Dr Maxwell was called in, and after his assistance, the sufferer was conveyed to the Melbourne Hospital. ***

IT will be seen by advertisement in the another column that steps are to be taken my by the Hon. W. H. Irvine’s supporters in this district to endeavor to secure his return at the forthcoming Federal election. It is hoped that there will be a good attendance at the meeting to be held on the 15th inst. We understand that Mr Irvine will address the electors in Frankston early in May. *** THROUGH an unfortunate delay in transit the film of Captain Scott to the South Pole, to have been shown in connection with Marchant’s Royal Pictures at Frankston on Tuesday evening last, did not reach here in time, but the management are now making arrangements to show the film in Frankston during the next week or ten days. *** A most enthusiastic meeting of ladies to form a committee in connection with the Frankston Brass Band was held on Thursday evening in Mechanics’ Institute. The chief business was the election of officers, the following ladies being appointed: President, Mrs Deane; Treasurer Mrs Plowman; Secretary Mrs A C Millard, with an energetic comnitte. Collectors were also appointed for the open air concert to be given by the band Saturday (to night), when a liberal response from all lovers of music is expected. *** LAST Sunday night the Rev James Lowe, who has been for the past three years minister of the Frankston Methodist Circuit, preached his farewell sermon to a large and attentive congre-

gation. His sermon, which was taken from the last verse of the last chapter of Revelations, was most impressive and at the close of the service, instead of the usual vesper, at the special request of the rev. gentleman, the Doxology was sung by the whole congregation. On the Sunday evening previous Mr Lowe preached his farewell sermon at Somerville, at the conclusion of which the Sacrament was administered to a large number of communicants. *** CRIB POINT At last this locality has a long looked for want provided, in the erection of a hall to be used for public purposes, and which will be opened with a social on Wednesday next, the 16th, by the Hon. A. Downward. The social is in the hands of a competent committee, who are doing their best to make the night’s enjoyment a good one. The price is popular, with a good floor, music and refreshments being provided. Today (Saturday) the first sports held in this district, will be held in the grounds of the Naval Base. The prize money has been a great inducement to a great number to compete in the lengthy programme that has been prepared by the committee for the occasion. As over a thousand tickets have been issued for the gate, weather permitting, this should be a day to be remembered. A good concert has been prepared to take place in one of the mess rooms in the evening. A special train will be in attendance to leave Crib Point station at 10.20pm.

D& ENTERTAINMENT ʔʦLȫɏ

The true meaning of ‘Der’– the king of insults By Stuart McCullough LANGUAGE is ruined. And, as usual, technology is to blame. LOL, OMG and YOLO serve only to prove that if charged by the character, people will readily abandon the rules of spelling and grammar just to save a few lousy bucks. Thanks to texting (or, if you prefer ‘txtg’), unnecessary letters have been stripped out of words. It’s as if the whole planet needs Baby John Burgess and his mighty Wheel of Fortune to return, giving us all one more chance to buy a vowel. I never thought I’d say this but, Baby John, your country needs you. Before language devolved into its current parlous condition, it was a rich and beautiful thing. People used it for all sorts of reasons: declarations of love, war and as a means of paying tribute to great beauty. It was also used to insult people. Sometimes verbal slurs were invented on the spot. But, from time to time, a particular phrase would be accepted as a conventional verbal weapon. A form of shorthand, if you will. When Ritchie Cunningham said, “Sit on it, bucko,” you knew he wasn’t kidding around. When Arnold Horshack hit you with, “Up your nose with a rubber hose,” it was a verbal apocalypse. But when I was growing up, we didn’t say “bucko” and we

der

didn’t refer to rubber hoses. Instead, we said, “der”. No rebuke stang as sharply or cut more deeply. In primary school, it was regarded as the ultimate retort, the type that could be greeted either with submission or the offer of an appointment behind the shelter shed after class. When a schoolmate responded by saying “der”, it was the equivalent of being slapped with a concrete fish. The only thing worse was if you were hit with, “der Fred”. I have no idea where “der” came from or why such a simple expression wielded such an extraordinary power, but it did. Like the most potent of voodoo ritual chants or incantations, it had the ability to render useless any argu-

ment, no matter how potent and terminate even the most passionate plea to reason. It was, in short, the ultimate show-stopper. I must have been in about Grade 4 at the time. As young children are want to do, there was some degree of carry-on. Perhaps someone had created a “pet fly” by attaching a cotton leash to an unsuspecting insect, maybe someone had just been stabbed with a compass; I really can’t recall. But whatever the particular source of mayhem our teacher, Miss Shugg, had been compelled to read us the “Riot Act”. This was especially disappointing as, previously, she’d been reading us Norman Lindsay’s The Magic Pudding. Whatever its particular merits,

pardon?” Sometimes in life you are expected to figure out the answer for yourself. A person in authority will say something that demands a further response but will give you no clue as to what that response should be. When a teacher bellows, “I beg your pardon?” it’s because you’ve said the wrong thing. Obviously, this needs to be corrected as a matter of priority, but “I beg your pardon?” – even at great volume – offers no hint as to what you ought to say. It’s all just guesswork. Although Clive knew he’d said the wrong thing, he had no idea how to make it right. Quivering like a twig, Clive rummaged through the attic of his mind for a better response. Finally, and in a voice as meek as the most devout church mouse, he answered, “der Fred.” Whereas “der Fred” had always been devastatingly effective in the playground, it was next to useless against Miss Shugg. Rather than recoil or admit defeat, it simply seemed to make her angrier. Whether Clive would have been better off had he said, “der Miss Shugg” is impossible to say, but I learned then that language needs nuance to be effective. It’s obvious, I suppose and something to which we can all quite heartily say, “der”. Perhaps Clive has learned it since. www.stuartmccullough.com

the “Riot Act” is not nearly as interesting as a never-ending dessert, no matter how sour its attitude, to say nothing of the fact that “the Riot Act” has no pictures. Every class has a kid that, despite his best efforts, is always in trouble. Through luck or good management, I have never been that person. As Miss Shugg continued reading, the class largely calmed down. Except, of course, for Clive. That’s not his real name. In fact, so much time has now passed since I was in primary school that I can’t remember Clive’s real name. But if his name has failed to stick in my memory, I do recall that trouble stuck to Clive much like a pipe cleaner to project paper after you poured on half a litre of craft glue. As the rest of group settled down, Clive’s high spirits would not be tamed. The room fell into a smothered silence and Clive was required to stand behind his desk, as Miss Shugg demanded an explanation. When our teacher suggested to Clive that his behaviour was not to a suitable standard, he answered simply by saying, “der”. He probably thought he was agreeing. But this attempted olive branch soon proved to be a fistful of thorns. It was clear to me and, I feel, the rest of the class that Clive’s response was not all that Miss Shugg was hoping for. Her reaction was like thunder. “I beg your

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

Fun time at the show By Dianne Baxter BLUE skies. Tantalising food aromas. Smiling entertainers. Groomed animals awaiting judging. A diverse array of stallholders offering a colourful kaleidoscope of produce and goods. The News Grand Parade and much, much more greeted a record crowd at this year’s Red Hill Show held on Easter Saturday, The young and the young at heart strolled the Showgrounds taking in all on offer – with a programme and a map of the area giving them easy directions. The choices were endless. Penny, the black and white Border Collie cross, won the dog high scramble jumping 2.720 metres. Megan Ray won the six brown eggs section. Cameron England won the best collection of four vegetables class. Woodleigh School won the best exhibit in The News Grand Parade, which was judged by Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO Michael Kennedy and Councillor Frank Martin. The owner of the champion bird in show was Rachael Fenselau. The junior divisions of the fancy rats were won by Delta, owned by Charlotte Layton and George owned by James Layton. The quinces section was won by Rod and Bambi Hanson. People lined up to watch the

open judging and await the announcements of the winners of the junior and senior boiled fruit cakes; the gourmet dip championship and the cheese competition. So many sections in so many classes – too many to write about here but true to the tradition of an agricultural show, the competition was keen. High flying tricks by the Whip Industries motocross team delighted the crowd; while Tubby the Robot and Baby were the favourites of many. Children of all ages attended the animal petting nursery. The miniature goats were a new addition to the Red Hill Show and proved popular with all. The classic and historic cars were a hit with many of the dads and granddads in the crowd. Fun too was had on the mechanical bull – some skill was needed but several just enjoyed the challenge. The Futura Kelpies – particularly the two 10 and 12-weekold working puppies – brought a smile to the faces of all who watched. Their instincts were keen even if their skills were still to be fully developed One of the public’s favourite segments of the show for many years – the wood chopping – again thrilled the crowds over many hours. The photography, craft and cooking areas were crowded throughout the day as were

the flower, fruit and vegetable pavilion. Art and totem poles were other favourites. So many exhibits. So many demonstrations. Many people stayed all day – some picnicking on the grounds; others lining up for the vast array of food on offer Laughter. Happiness. Enjoyment. All were the main items on the agenda at this year’s Red Hill Show. In 2014, the show will revert to its traditional timing of the fourth Saturday in March. The work has begun.

Bringing hope to Cambodian children HASTINGS resident Joanne Grant returned from a trip from Cambodia last month with a vision to build a new school in a remote village that she visited while there. Mrs Grant travelled to Cambodia with Christian not-for-profit organisation Samaritan’s Purse on a 10-day discovery tour to visit their projects. They visited schools, churches, a medical centre, hospital, prisons, villages, farms (including fish farms, chicken farms, pig farms), slums, water sanitation projects and even built a couple of bio-sand filters. The most exciting project for Mrs Grant was Operation Christmas Child where they visited a poor village and a school to hand out shoeboxes filled with gifts to needy children, most of whom had never received a gift before. Mrs Grant said she has had the pleasure of packing shoeboxes with gifts but being given the privilege of hand delivering the gifts was just an amazing experience. “The joy and excitement I saw in the children is something I will never forget,” Mrs Grant said. “I also realised that it is so much more than a shoebox filled

with gifts,” Mrs Grant said. “When a child opens up a shoebox, they are opening up their community to a world of life-changing opportunities. Connections are made with the communities to further discover and meet their needs.’’ Each shoebox contains something to love (eg teddy bear), something for school, something to wear, something to play with, something for hygiene, and something special. The final school the group visited broke their hearts. The school building was in poor condition, holes in the walls, no floor, dark classrooms and a piece of plywood used as a blackboard. Children were carting water from a dam, no taps to turn on like we do. The children were beautiful and so willing to learn. When the group realised that a new school, with water supply and sanitation, could be built for around $130,000 they decided they would make it happen. The group of eight, from three states, has already started fundraising. For more information on Operation Christmas Child, call Joanne Grant on 0408 947 646.

Performance THE Production Company launched its 15th season last week at a lunch at the historic mansion Raheen hosted by Jeanne Pratt and artistic director Ken Mackenzie-Forbes. Three shows scheduled this year include Singin’ in the Rain, Gypsy and The Pirates of Penzance. Gypsy, considered by many to be the ultimate Broadway musical, is a shrewd, deeply felt spectacle of life and showbusiness. The original stage show, with its Arthur Laurent’s book (adapted from Gypsy Rose Lee’s memoirs) and Jule Styne-Stephen sound score, is sure to bring Melbourne audiences to their feet with favourites Everything’s Coming up Roses, You Gotta Have a Gimmick, Let Me Entertain You, Some People and Rose’s Turn. Caroline O’Connor (pictured), star of Chicago, returns from Broadway to play the role of Rose. It is directed by award-winning Gale Edwards with Andrew Hallsworth as choreographer and Guy Simpson as musical director. Gypsy opened at the Broadway Theatre in 1959. Singin’ in the Rain is the story of matinee idol Don Lockwood (Rohan Browne) and his romance with chorus girl Kathy Selden (Alinta Chidzey). It has one of the best-written storylines to grace a Hollywood musical and was penned by Betty Comden and Adolph Green. Matt Lee will play Cosmo Brown and Christie Whelan-Browne will play Lockwood’s leading lady, Lina Lamont. Gary Young will direct, Kelley Abbey is choreographer and John Foreman the musical director. Pirates of Penzance rocked Hamer Hall 30 years ago and returns this year with Gareth Keegan (Frederic), Adam Murphy (Pirate King), Brent Hill (Police Sergeant), Virginia Gay (Ruth) and Wayne Scott Kermond (MajorGeneral Stanley). The creative team includes Dean Bryant (director), Andrew Hallsworth (choreographer) and Matthew Frank (musical director).

By Gary Turner *** OPERA Australia launches its autumn season at the State Theatre, Arts Centre, on Friday 12 April 12. Beneath the tales of deception and disguise that underpin this season’s three operas, audiences will discover passionate stories of love and devotion. Celebrate Verdi’s 200th anniversary with a new production of A Masked Ball by La Fura dels Baus as well as Graeme Murphy’s visually spectacular Aida featuring two new international stars. The season finishes in Surrealist style with the Olivier and Helpmann Award-winning Christopher Alden’s production of Handel’s Partenope. Bookings 9685 3700. www.opera-australia.org.au

Songs include Poor Wandering One, When the Foreman Bares his Steel, With Cat-Like Tread, Away Away! and My Heart’s on Fire. At the season launch, Jeanne Pratt said it was hard to believe 15 years had elapsed since she started the company. “My dream in 1999 was twofold: to provide professional opportunities for local artists and to entertain Melbourne audiences with the best shows from Broadway and beyond. Our success

has been beyond my wildest dreams,” she said. Ms Pratt is also passionate about young people and their opportunity to see theatre. “Our gift in 2013 is a 50 per cent discount on full price individual tickets for anyone aged under 18. No ifs, no buts, no catches. We simply want everyone to have the opportunity to enjoy our musicals. This means young people pay as little as $23 a ticket.”

Gypsy is at the State Theatre 10-14 July with a matinee on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14. Singin’ in the Rain will run 21 to 25 August in the State Theatre with a matinee on Saturday 24 August and Sunday 25 August. The Pirates of Penzance will run 30 October to 3 November at Hamer Hall with matinee performances on 2 November and 3 November. www.theproductioncompany.com.au www.cavpr.com.au

and again rubbish the unions suggesting all sorts of evil deeds. Faceless men ruling the roost. True up to a point but no different than big business doing likewise and much more likely to control us, leaving many to resent what they want us to resent. Then there’s the one telling of the government getting us heavily into debt, per person. As if the Opposition will look after “our money” any better. Political rubbish, but from the many letters it appears people are concerned, stressed even, over nothing, never seemingly realising that both mobs chase the lure; power and money. A story spoon-fed in formulaic form forever; black holes, surpluses, you name it. We will get by under either government; we always do, but try not to be sucked in with the bulldust. There’s no such thing as “the good guys”. *** SIMON Crean returned briefly from the dark with a promising cultural policy called Creative Australia replacing Paul Keating’s Creative Nation with some $75 million to the performing arts, causing the Australia Council to wet their administrative power lips. Still, some of it could trickle down to the artists so it’s a great idea and hopefully passed in the May budget, if we get that far. Mind you, Tony and little Joey will have something to say after September. *** SPORT mishmash: “At certain stages

we gave the early lead away but credit to the boys they got it back, then we almost allowed them back in at the finish but they held on well. I’m proud of them.” AFL coach. Where does one start with the Australian Football League? The idea of an equalisation fund seems fair in the long-term interests of the competition but fairness is not a part of the AFL’s history. Caroline Wilson suggests sacking Dane Swan. Gerard Whateley on cricketer Shane Watson. Dawn Fraser at our relay swimmers, like she was an angel. Political correctness gone wild. They talk incessantly about drugs, but say nothing. Academy of Control Freaks. A degree of imperfection is normal. *** THE Rosebud Short Film Festival had its fair share of young ones having a go. I find it nice that the boys and girls are clocking in on their various imaginations. On the other hand I can’t help wondering if this honing in on the essential early child development of literacy and numeracy skills a la Julia constitutes the total picture. Surely there’s room at an earlier age for their skills to be combined with freedom of self-expression, be it all or at least some form of the arts? We miss prime ministers Keating

and Gorton; also premiers John Cain and Rupert Hamer. *** THE hardest of all gratifications to abandon is the one that comes from other people’s approval. From Michel Montaigne; about the man who toiled so hard at an art that few could ever know about. “For me a few are enough; one is enough; having none is enough.” You and one companion are audience enough for each other; so are you for yourself. Don’t be concerned what the world says of you but with what you say to yourself. Waldo Emerson: “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment”. I’ve made my decision: I’m voting for the Sex Party. *** HANNIE Rayson’s Hotel Sorrento is being performed by Studio Sorrento Players on 23 to 27 April at the Sorrento Seniors Hall, corner Melbourne and Queens roads, Sorrento. There’s a massive rush for tickets so, as mum constantly told me, “get off your backside” and make your booking. I’ll be appearing in it briefly, unless dementia knocks before opening night. It’s directed by lovely Denise Potter and stars four beautiful females. Bookings from 5985 1631 or email rcd492000@yahoo.com.au

Family squabbles, dramas, illnesses come and go; moments of depression replaced by optimism. Something to look forward to; hope. Forget the crooks, too many and they win anyway. From school to the public service. Twenty years of discussing superannuation units, worth money in another 30 years. Resign, get work where I combine lifestyle with earning money; marriage, sex, little monsters. Does hope spring eternal? The silver lining has turned grey; too many funerals. Ah, but Easter has passed. No holiday hordes till Melbourne Cup day. Peace and a ray of silver. Smile, I’m on candid camera, everywhere. Thanks to the Rye RSL dedicated smoking area “rabble” for birthday wishes, ditto presidento and treasurer, in spite of not wanting to be reminded. *** I’M a pretty ordinary type, no special skills; dreadful with light bulbs, good at some things, a master of none. I write what I perceive, maybe spot-on maybe not. What consistently fascinates is the general brainwashing by sections of the media. Not so much Andrew Bolt, who I file under the heading “ratbags to the backline”, but others who time

By Cliff Ellen *** LIFE is strange: I liked Mike Sheahan as chief football writer but didn’t realise his true worth until Mark Robinson took his place. Myer boss Bernie Brookes and Harvey Norman’s Gerry Harvey want the federal election now, ditto Ron Walker and Ita Buttrose; surprise? What happened to honest Geoff Shaw’s $2 million pre-election promise to desilt Kananook Creek; washed away? It’s easy to get on Peninsula Link; the problem is where to get off. We thank God for the Saturday Age, and Anson Cameron. Will Tony end negative gearing? More hope the shark with the fragile sardine. Dr Mahinder Watsa, 89, is India’s leading sex therapist. “You’re never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” C S Lewis. I love a good quote but the everyday one still reigns supreme: “The more they get the more they want.” Hooroo. cliffie9@bigpond.com Western Port News 9 April 2013

Yabbies shock Panthers with a four-point win By Toe Punt TYABB shocked the Nepean League football public on Saturday when it came from behind to beat Devon Meadows by four points. The Yabbies line-up had a tough preseason and was expected to be at the bottom part of the ladder this year but proved once again it was going to be a competitive unit. Devon Meadows recruited well in the off-season and was expected to be in the mix for the finals. While it’s hard to criticise clubs after only one round, Devon Meadows losing on Saturday was a big shock. The team led by 27 points at three quarter time and the expectation was that it would go on with the job. However, the Tyabb ran all over the top of them, booting six goals to one in the last quarter to win 16.8.104 to 15.10.100. Yabbies coach Brad Coller, who tore his hamstring in his first game for two seasons after his third knee reconstruction, was thrilled with the win. “Personally I’ve felt better but it was great for the team. My old legs can’t quite chase the young blokes like the use to,” Coller said. “I understand the predictions that were being made because Devon recruited very well. “However, we picked-up a handful of players after Christmas who have really added to the list. None of them are stars but they fill the roles that we were looking to fill and they have been doing a really good job for us. “To run over the top of them like we did in the last quarter was really pleasing. They were talking themselves up that they were going to run over us but we were able to do it to them,” Coller said. Two recruits to stand out were Daniel

Hines, who the Yabbies picked-up from the Navy, while Stephen Conlan is a key position player who played forward on Saturday. Ryan Jones kicked three goals for the Yabbies, as did Ash Waterstone, while Rowan McGrath and Jake Anderson were dominant performers. Ash Adams kicked four for the Panthers while teenager Jack Hazendonk picked-up the three votes for his team. Hastings copped a massive shock when it was comprehensively thrashed by Dromana. The Blues squad was extremely

confident about its chances before the match but by the 20-minute mark of the third quarter, it was all downhill, losing by 67 points, 23.19.157 to 13.12.90. It was a massive day for Hastings, given the team of the century was held that evening. Undisciplined acts and giving away some easy goals contributed to the demise of the Blues. Also, Dromana got its running game going, its skill level improved and Hastings couldn’t match them in either department. Tony Mirabella was the only shining

light for the Blues with a game-high tally of five goals but his influence in the second half was quelled by the magnificent defensive pressure of the Tigers. The Dromana backline, consisting of Michael Hunter, Daniel Lee, Jay Neratzoglou, Rikki Johnson, Christian Ongarello and Shaun Clarke was superb. Ongarello was the best player on the ground, while ruckman Luke O’Neil played a lone hand in the ruck after half time and was dominant. Paul Minchington was electric, especially after half time, where he completely dominated. Other than Mirabella, there were not a lot of positives for Hastings. Andy Kiely tried hard, as did Colin McVeigh and David Hull. David Hull was injured late and is unlikely to be available this week, while Dylan Hand also left the field early with a hamstring injury. Dromana too were two men down midway through the game, ruckman Michael Falconer hurting his knee, as did Anthony Bruhn. Blues coach Glenn Michie agreed that it was a big shock to his team. “Our pre-season was good but I think that their match fitness got the better of us late in the game. “We had 12 new players in the team and I guess it’s going to take some time to click. “In saying that, we were undisciplined at times which is going to cost some players their spots. “I also thought we didn’t use the ball going into the forward line very well either. There’s plenty to work on,” Michie said. Sorrento smashed Crib Point by more than 100 points in what was another big shock, winning 18.26.134 to 4.6.30.

Thankfully for the Magpies, Sorrento was inaccurate in front of goal. The reigning premiers had 16 scoring shots to one in the first quarter and led by 50 points at the first change. James Hallahan was expected to dominate this competition and he did exactly that on Saturday. Cayden Beetham was also dominant and Leigh Poholke finished with six goals. Dan Wise and Dean Kairies were key contributors for the Magpies, who will want to forget about this one pretty quickly. Frankston Bombers was also on fire on Saturday, restricting Red Hill to four goals in a 93-point win. The margin was 31 points at half time but the Bombers booted 11 goals to one after the break to win 19.13.127 to 4.10.34. Anthony Fulton, Matt Wells and Jason Kingsbury all booted three goals for the winners while Haydn Moore and former Collingwood and West Coast forward Damien Atkins dominated. Karingal recruit Jason Bedford also proved what a great get he was for the club. Ben Macguiness and Robert Mace were the best of the Hillmen. In the final game of the round, Pearcedale got its season away to the best possible start, knocking over Somerville, 11.14.80 to 8.13.61. It setup the win with a five-goal-to-one first quarter. Dean Janssen and Ben Cadd led from the front for Pearcedale while Pat Heijden was also solid with three goals. Todd Farrelly booted three goals for the Eagles and his brother Justin, along with Travis Bravo, were fine contributors.

Pines knock off Karingal in a five-point thriller By Toe Punt PINES started its 2013 Peninsula League campaign in spectacular fashion on Saturday, knocking over Karingal in a five-point thriller. After a strong pre-season that saw more than 55 players on the training track, Pines put the practice into action on Saturday and overran the Bulls, winning 13.9.87 to 12.10.82. Despite an eight-goal second quarter and 17-point half time lead, Karingal was able to claw its way back into the contest and go in the final change well and truly in the game. The round one clash saw the return of Dale Tedge for the Pythons, who finished the afternoon with three goals. Guy Hendry was also a terrific target in attack with four goals and Trent Potts was the best player on the ground. The win wasn’t a surprise for coach Steve Ryan. “It was a good win but it wasn’t something that I didn’t expect,” Ryan said. “The boys have been training well for a long time and coming off a strong finish to last season, I felt we were prepared well for the season. “Just with a little extra effort and another year of senior footy for some of the younger guys, I was always

PAGE 38

confident of the improvement. “It’s only round one though and there’s plenty of footy left.” Pines went into the game with six new faces, while Brendan Neville was a bonus for them as he had not been selected at Casey. Scott Manders, a former Edithvale junior and Seaford player, provided some stability for the Pythons, while Dave McLaren was back at Pines after a stint at Chelsea and Highett. Brenton Cowell was another recruit who impressed. “We didn’t have Shaun White and there are quite a few players in the reserves who are more than capable of playing seniors. “Our list is the strongest in terms of depth than it has been for quite some time.” Langwarrin got its season away to a flier also, beating Seaford for the first time in 17 years. The Kangas got away to a blistering start and led by 29 points at the first change and eventually went on to win by 45 points, 21.11.137 to 14.8.92. Recruit Luke Damon booted four goals for the winners, as did pint-sized teenager Jayden Johnson, while Aaron Shaw contributed three goals. There were a number of new faces for the Kangas, including Damon,

while both Beau Muston and coach Paul Wheatley took part. Daniel Wehner and Shane Urbans led from the front last season and they picked up where they left off with outstanding displays, while Jason Curry and Scott Sienkiewicz were dominant performers also. As expected, Wheatley was extremely happy with the victory. “It was great for the club to knock off Seaford. They’ve touched us up a lot of the past few years and it was good to get one back on them,” Wheatley said. “I think we are a lot better prepared this season. Our kids are that one year old and more experienced and we have added some older and experienced players to the squad. “We are in our second year of executing the way we want to play and that makes a big difference also. “Most importantly, the kids are no longer kids and they needed to step up. On Saturday, they certainly did that,” Wheatley said. Reigning premier Frankston YCW got its season away to a great start also, easily accounting for Bonbeach. Bonbeach was expected to be one of the big improvers this season but let its guard down when it mattered most and was soundly beaten, 16.9.105 to 7.11.53.

Bonbeach led by 13 points at quarter time, training by 10 points at the main break and by 15 points at three quarter time. No-one expected the last quarter onslaught. David Bodley had a day out for the Stonecats with seven goals, while Ricky Morris was at his elusive best with four majors. Ben Tellis continues to dominate this competition, as does Ash Eames and Anthony Barry. New Bonbeach ruckman Dylan Jones was a standout, while Jackson Casey and Matty Batten were outstanding also. In Sunday’s games, Mornington led all afternoon to get the four points against old foe Mt Eliza. Jackson Calder was a standout for the Doggies in attack with four goals and James Cameron (three goals) and Kallum Searle picked-up where they left off last season. Mornington opened-up a three-goal break in the opening quarter and was able to go on with the job, winning 14.8.92 to 10.10.70. Warwick Miller took the field for Mornington, and as he is heading overseas mid-year, every game he plays is a luxury for the team. Another noticeable player for the Dogs was Anthony Franchina, who booted a

goal. Somerville recruit Emilio Bitters also had a significant impact on the game. People were wondered how the losses in the off-season were going to affect the Redlegs – I think we got a taste of it. Rohan Heasley and Karl Lombardozzi were the best of the Redlegs. In the other match, Edithvale gave Chelsea a hiding, winning 19.15.129 to 7.8.50. Jeremy Heys lit up the park for the Eagles, especially in the third quarter when he kicked three goals. He finished with four. A player to really impress was Todd Woodbridge, whose silky skills and hard attack on the footy resulted in three goals. Zac Muschialli was another player who stood out for the Eagles, dominating through the middle of the ground, as did Tim Mavric. The Seagulls looked slow, or were perhaps made to. Samoan recruit Fia Too T was a standout performer for the Gulls while Brett Brisbane also presented and worked hard. The highlight of the match was a 70-metre torpedo goal from Edithvale full back Nick Connellan.

Hastings bowlers success at last By Gerald O’Brien HASTINGS Bowling Club recently completed the 2012-13 pennant season with flags to Division 1 and Division 7. Division 5 were runners up. This was a very good result for the club which entered five teams in the Peninsula Bowling District (PBD) competition. Because Division 1 won the pennant, to determine the champion pennant team of the Peninsula/Casey Region, the 16 Division 1 players took on the Flinders Bowling District Division 1 pennant winners Rosebud at West Rosebud Bowling Club.

Again the team was victorious and is now set to compete against 11 other region champion pennant teams at Barham on May 3-5 to decide who is the champion pennant team in Victoria. This will be a big test for the team but it is confident that it will acquit itself well because of the bowling standard of the individual team members. But regardless of the result, the exposure for the Hastings Bowling Club and Hastings in general will be most useful because the travelling party will be excellent ambassadors.

Bombers thump the Hillmen in season opener FRANKSTON Bombers handed Red Hill a football lesson at Baxter Park on Saturday thrashing the Hillmen by a 93-point margin. The match was a clash between last year’s seventh-placed team, Frankston, and eightplaced Red Hill. Frankston has made a number of changes to the 2012 side, most notably former West Coast midfielder Damien Adkins. For Red Hill the only inclusion was James McCall from South Australia. Frankston started the match well with a goal to co-captain Nathan Lonie in the opening minutes. Red Hill quickly replied with a goal from vice-captain Peter Dallago. Frankston went on to kick three unanswered-goals (S Foster, Fulton and N Lonie) to finish off the opening term. Frankston had been winning most of the football, which was reflected on the scoreboard. Nathan Lonie was the go-to man on the wing, which resulted in his two goals. For Red Hill not enough players stood out. Jake Mold was easily the best. In the second term, Red Hill looked like getting back into the game, by outplaying Frankston for the majority of the quarter. But Red Hill was not able to translate it on the scoreboard by kicking two goals four. The Bombers definitely made the most of the opportunities increasing its lead to 22 points. Playing coach Duncan Proud was excellent off the half-back consistently winning the rebound 50s. One positive for Red Hill was it was able

to limit Nathan Lonie’s impact on the game. A highlight of the first half was a high mark from Red Hill Captain Sean Holmes. In the third quarter the Frankston won the game by kicking seven unanswered goals. At one stage it kicked four goals in five minutes. Goals came from Scott Foster with two and singles to Damien Adkins, Jason Kingsbury, Tony Fulton, James Deganhart and Zac Longham. Pressure by the Frankston forwards was pivotal in locking the ball in the forward 50. For Red Hill there wasn’t much to comment on, the team struggled to get its hands on the footy and when it did the disposal wasn’t well thought out. The last quarter was a non-event with Frankston leading by 75 points at three-quarter time. The team continued its streak of unanswered goals to 12 before Red Hill’s Jayden Pain broke the drought with the final goal of the day. In that last quarter Bomber forward Matt Wells was dominant and Jay Reynolds was tough around the packs winning the clearances. For Red Hill there wasn’t much to be happy with in that second half but coach Garry Colling employed an interesting kick out tactic, where nearly every player on the ground stood in the middle of the ground around 50 metres from goal and the full-back would torpedo the ball down the middle to break the Bombers a zone (a tactic occasionally used in the AFL). Overall the best players for Frankston were: Hayden Moore, Damien Adkins, Jason Bedford and Jake Foster. The best for Red Hill were: Ben Maguinness, Robert Mace and Fletcher Kearney. Next week the Bombers play last year’s wooden spooners Tyabb away and Red Hill will host Somerville. Score: Frankston Bombers 19.13.127 def Red Hill 4.10.34.
