Kingston jobs lost By Keith Platt and Jo Winterbottom ABOUT 500 jobs will be lost in Kingston when South East Water moves it headquarters to Frankston in 2015. Frankston Council announced last month it had lured the water utility to its shores following 18 months of negotiations. Frankston acting CEO Jane Homewood said the council had won a “hotly contested bid� to bring South East Water to the city and claimed the move would “contribute $115 million a year to the local economy�. Kingston CEO John Nevins said Kingston had not been involved in any negotiations to keep South East Water in the municipality. South East Water’s three existing offices in Heatherton, Dandenong South, which have 90 staff, and Lynbrook, 100 staff, will be closed and all staff will move to the new building beside Kananook Creek. While Frankston councillors believe the injection of jobs and capital will be good for the municipality and may help rejuvenate the struggling shopping and administrative strip along Nepean Highway, some have voiced concern over the council’s readiness to waive its own height restrictions to accommodate South East Water’s 700 staff. Community groups have also weighed in to the debate over the suitability of the creekside site currently occupied by a car park owned by Frankston Council. Mr Nevins appeared not to be

aware of the impending closure of the Heatherton office when asked about it last week but was quick to put a positive spin on Frankston’s coup. “From a council perspective, what is important is that the jobs stay in the region,� he said. “We are sorry to see them [SEW] go from Kingston, but we are happy to see the jobs stay in the region; whether it is on this side of Eel Race Rd or the other is not important.� South East Water spokeswoman Beth Richens said the move to Frankston would occur at the end of the utility’s lease on the Heatherton offices, which it had occupied for 15 years. “We don’t have a set date, but it will be in 2015,� she said. The organisation would call for tenders from architects in coming weeks. While plans are yet to be drawn, The News understands Frankston Council’s agreement to allow the building to go above the city’s height restrictions was an important factor in luring the utility to Frankston, as was the bayside location. The building will be sandwiched between Kananook Creek and the Landmark building, stretching from Wells to Playne streets. It will be higher than the Landmark building and will block all its sea views. Ms Homewood would not reveal the amount South East Water will pay for the car park site. Ms Richens said all South East Water employees would be offered jobs at the new headquarters.

Chelsea – Mordialloc News 21 August 2012
Government founding fathers honoured government in the region. The area administered by the board covered 36 square miles (93 square kilometres) stretching from North Rd to Mordialloc Creek and inland to Heatherton. At the board’s inception, the population of the area was 4500. The region is now covered by Bayside, Glen Eira, Kingston and Monash municipalities. Kingston mayor Cr John Ronke said the formation of the Moorabbin District Roads Board was an important part of our history because it laid the foundations for local government in the area.
SOME complain there are too many of them, others not enough, but at a gathering of local government bigwigs it was agreed that roads were the arteries of progress and government in colonial Victoria. The 150th anniversary of the formation of the Moorabbin District Roads Board was marked with the unveiling of a commemorative plaque in Dendy Park, Brighton, on Thursday 16 August. The establishment of the board in 1862 marked the beginning of local
“When the board was founded in 1862, its responsibilities were limited to rates and roads, but over the decades local councils have grown to offer a wide range of services that are vital to keeping our communities strong, connected and prosperous,� Cr Ronke said. The first general meeting of the Moorabbin District Roads Board was held in June 1862 at Jessie Morley’s Plough and Harrow Hotel, the main building in the area, which stood on the corner of what is now South Rd
and Nepean Hwy. It was just 11 years after Victoria officially separated from the colony of New South Wales. The colonial government found it increasingly difficult to construct and maintain roads in the rapidly growing colony and so this power was devolved to local road boards, which had the power to levy rates and collect tolls and charges for road usage. See Page 27 for a story on one of the founders of local government, William Mair.
Dob in litterbugs LITTER prevention signs have been erected across the green wedge area with Kingston Council urging residents to report litterbugs and illegal rubbish dumping to the Environment Protection Authority on 1300 EPA VIC (1300 372 842). Littering is a serious offence and heavy fines can be issued to offenders under the Environment Protection Act 1970. Council local laws officers can issue fines on the spot to offenders. Council has installed 20 signs at 10 locations in Clarinda, Clayton South, Dingley Village and Cheltenham. “Illegal rubbish dumping is a serious issue in Kingston and is estimated to cost our community more than $150,000 annually to collect about 30 tonnes of rubbish per month from our streets and parks,� Kingston mayor John Ronke said. Litter can also be reported to the EPA confidentially by using a Litter Report form available at www.epa.vic. gov.au
Family focus KINGSTON Youth & Family Services seeks volunteers aged 18 and over for a training course that provides experience working with young people and families in areas including communication and conflict resolution. Applications for the Volunteer Training Program must be received by 14 September. Training will take place in October and November, with volunteer opportunities starting in December. Visit the ‘Volunteering with Kingston’ section on the Kingston Youth & Family Services website at www.kyfs. org.au or call Kingston Youth Services on 1300 369 436 for further information.

Chelsea SES: time to get ready for storm season PREPARING for the spring storm season could be the difference between life and death says Chelsea SES unit controller Ron Fitch. Residents of well-prepared households cope better during emergency weather events, Mr Fitch said. “Studies following major emergencies have found that stress and anxiety can lead to impaired judgement and poor decision-making. “Stress can also affect our memory and our ability to think clearly in such situations, with people forgetting sim-
ple tasks or misunderstanding information or overlooking better alternative actions.� The unit is urging residents to prepare for the storm season during SES StormSafe Week. The theme of the week is ‘Prepare now or pay later.’ Mr Fitch said that Victoria was prone to severe land gales during winter and spring. “Both are extremely destructive, causing death and injuries and property damage running into millions of dollars,� he said.
To prepare for storms, residents should clear gutters and downpipes; fix loose tiles, roofing iron and ridge capping; trim trees and branches hanging over the house, and secure outdoor furniture and children’s play equipment such as trampolines when storm warnings are issued. “We would also encourage people to develop a home emergency plan and prepare a home emergency kit,� Mr Fitch said. “A typical emergency kit should contain as a minimum a battery-op-
Caravans at Factory Prices
erated radio with spare batteries, a torch with spare batteries, a first aid kit, leather gloves, a pocket knife, medications and prescriptions, mobile phone charger, bottled water and pet needs. Important documents such as passports can be added when the storm is imminent.� Chelsea SES volunteers are available to talk to groups about storm preparation and the work of the SES.

Welcoming words A NEWSPAPER with a fresh attitude, hurray. It has been needed for some time. I am hoping Chelsea-Mordialloc News is the one. As a contributor on issues in the past, I am hoping letters to the editor will be reborn where citizens in the community can highlight issues and ignite interest in what’s happening around us all. Some people of my vintage don’t or can’t keep in contact with elderly friends, so an obituary column would be appreciated. One issue that concerns me is bike riders at night who don’t care to be seen. They ride without lights or even reflectors. Perhaps the government should make it mandatory to wear a reflective sas. This, I’m certain, would reduce the injury and death rate of riders. Dave Stelzner Bonbeach
TAFE cuts a threat THE Baillieu government’s $290 million TAFE cuts are already having a devastating effect, and the worst is yet to come. As thousands of TAFE teachers lose their jobs, skyrocketing course costs will exclude many young people from being able to access skills and training through TAFE institutes. That is if local campuses like Holmesglen in Moorabbin and Chisholm in Frankston remain open, as many TAFEs struggle to cope with the immensity of the budget cuts. They have had to make tough decisions to close campuses, which

makes it even harder to access TAFE close to home, especially in rural and regional Victoria. The cuts to the TAFE system compound the cuts made to schools, like scrapping the Education Maintenance Allowance payment, which was used to provide things like books, uniforms, swimming lessons and school camps for kids whose parents might otherwise not have been able to afford these costs. Cutting Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning coordination funding was another thoughtless act by the Baillieu government. Schools around the state have had to cut back on VCAL teachers and courses, leaving students who want hands-on training with fewer options to achieve it. Lee Tarlamis MP South Eastern Metropolitan Region
PSOs MIA WHILE it’s pleasing to see that police and transit officers are regularly patrolling our train services, where are the PSOs the Baillieu government promised us at the last election, which would be patrolling our railway stations, especially at night? As a regular train user, I can see how the presence of authorities has improved commuters’ safety, but we still won’t travel at night.

WIN
Council’s $10.5m super shortfall By Jo Winterbottom and Mike Hast KINGSTON Council has hit out at the management of a municipal superannuation scheme after being slapped with a $10.5 million bill to help shore up the poorly performing fund. Kingston mayor Cr John Ronke said the council was “extremely disappointed with the performance and management” of the Local Authorities Superannuation Fund, run by trustees Vision Super. “Kingston Council has been informed by Vision Super that it needs to contribute $10.5 million to the defined benefits scheme,” he said. “This is the fourth call council has received to contribute significant funds to the scheme. “Calls of this nature are unsustainable and the Kingston community cannot continue to be asked to support this fund in this manner.” Despite the huge bill, Cr
Ronke said Kingston’s 2012-13 budget would not be affected. No payments are due until 1 July 2013. “Given the timing of this call on local government, there will be no impact on council’s adopted 2012-13 budget,” he said. “Council is working through strategies to deal with this latest impost that will not impact on service delivery to the community.” The Defined Benefit Plan was open to local government employees between 1982 and 1993. It provides a guaranteed retirement benefit to members for the rest of their lives and, on their death, to a beneficiary spouse, regardless of financial market conditions and fund income. The News understands the repeated shortfalls are due to poor investment returns and the fund under-estimating the length of time beneficiaries
are living after retirement. In a non-performing market, Vision Super makes calls on councils to make up the shortfall to the level guaranteed by the defined scheme, including the 15 per cent tax payable by all super schemes. The degree to which each municipality is responsible for the fund’s shortfalls is judged by the number of its former employees drawing on the fund. Kingston still has 66 current staff in the scheme, so its liability could continue for many decades. The remainder of Kingston’s 1350 staff are in accumulation schemes, many of which have also been badly knocked by adverse investment incomes since the global financial crisis first hit in 2008. Kingston’s $10.5 million bill well exceeds the liabilities of Bayside ($5.3 million), Frankston ($6.5 million) and Mornington Peninsula ($10.8 million).
Player banned, ump quits A CHELSEA junior footballer has been banned from playing competition football for 10 years after he attacked an umpire in an under-16s game at Mt Eliza. Umpire Scott Tansley, a student of Mt Eliza, received a blood nose and was badly
shaken by the incident. He has criticised the decision of the Frankston and District Junior Football League, saying the Chelsea player should have been banned from footy fields for life. Mr Tansley has vowed never to umpire again in the FDJFL.
The game between Mt Eliza and Chelsea junior football clubs at Emil Madsen Reserve on Sunday 5 August was called off after the attack on Mr Tansley. The matter went to the FDJFL tribunal the following Tuesday evening.

Beach assault claim false alarm By Jo Winterbottom A TWO-DAY hunt for a rapist in Edithvale was called off last week when police discovered the alleged victim had concocted her story of being sexual assaulted at a foreshore toilet block. The schoolgirl’s report of being sexually assaulted at knife point about 5.30pm on Tuesday 14 August caused widespread fear in bayside communities until police announced almost two days later it had been a false report.
“Police are now treating the incident at Edithvale on 14 August as a false report and would like to reassure the community that there are no safety concerns,” said a police spokesperson on Thursday 16 August. “Information was provided to detectives this morning which has revealed that no offence occurred.” The spokesperson said no charges would be laid. “We do not believe this is in the
best interests of the young woman involved. “Detectives have concerns about the welfare of the young woman and are assisting her and her family,” the spokesperson said. Detectives from Moorabbin’s sexual offence and child abuse investigation unit worked overtime on the Tuesday night and Wednesday, establishing a crime scene at the toilet block in Bristol Ave, combing the beach at Ed-
ithvale and calling for public help to locate a man described by the 18-yearold woman as white, aged between 40 and 50 and about 180 to 185 centimetres tall. She told police he had lured her to the toilet block with calls for help. Chelsea SES turned out to assist with its floodlighting unit on the Tuesday night and SES volunteers conducted a line search of the beach on the Wednesday morning.
Manhunt: Volunteer SES members and a detective search the scene of the alleged violent sexual assault in Edithvale. The report was later found to be false.
‘Robbery’ foiled By Jo Winterbottom CHELTENHAM police want to speak to a man who was allegedly chased by four would-be robbers near Cheltenham railway station. It was a big night for two junior police who apprehended the four teenagers about 10pm on Thursday 16 August. Constables Kim Alp and Chadi Issa, of Cheltenham police, were later contacted by Springvale police who wanted to speak to the four teens regarding an alleged abduction and assault in Springvale earlier the same night. Constable Alp said she and Constable Issa were on their way to a job when they saw four men allegedly chasing a man down a laneway off Charman St in Cheltenham. “We will allege they planned to rob him of his laptop computer,” Constable Alp said. The four – three 18-year-olds from Keysborough, Endeavour Hills and Springvale, and a 17-year-old from Keysborough – were questioned and charged with attempted robbery. Police will allege that about 7.40pm the same evening, the four had abducted a man from an address in Turramurra Dve, Keysborough. Constable Alp said the man was held in the vehicle for “some time”, during which he was allegedly assaulted. The alleged victim later reported the incident to Springvale police. The four teenagers faced Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Friday 17 August; each was charged with attempted robbery, abduction/false imprisonment, intent to cause injury, threats to kill, and theft. The 17-year-old was bailed to appear in the Children’s Court at a later date.

Picking up the pieces: Mental Health Minister Mary Wooldridge with Peninsula Health staff member Simon Cairns at the opening of the service’s new Youth Prevention and Recovery Centre. Picture: Yanni
At home for mental health THE state’s first purposebuilt treatment centre for young people with mental health problems has opened in Frankston. The new Youth Prevention and Recovery Centre – Youth PARC – was opened on Wednesday by the Minister for Mental Health, Women’s Affairs and Community Services Mary Wooldridge. The Youth PARC in Yuille St will provide early intervention for 16-25 year olds with mental illness who are too unwell to be at home but not in need of hospital care and for
those in the early stages of recovery from an acute psychiatric episode. Young people are expected to stay at the 10-bed centre for a minimum of two weeks or up to 28 days. The centre – run by Peninsula Health, Mind Australia and Peninsula Support Services – will be staffed full time by clinicians and mental health recovery workers. Peninsula Health will next year open an adult PARC in Beach St. “The youth-friendly centre is designed as a large house,
so young people can receive care in a more home-like setting rather than a hospital facility,” Peninsula Health’s executive director of mental health services Jan Child said. “This design is based on feedback from Victorians with mental illness, their families, carers and professionals who work with them. “Frankston has a relatively high population of young people. The Youth PARC is an opportunity to intervene early with young people to optimise their social and educational chances.”
Happy landings: This photo of Garry Ellis with ambulance drivers and aircrew was published in the 10 February 1987 edition of the now-defunct Frankston Independent.
Volunteers’ legacy set in concrete CONSTRUCTION of the multi-storey car park at Frankston Hospital has revived memories of an act of generosity that had farreaching effects. In 1987 concreter Garry Ellis gathered a few of his friends and colleagues and replaced what was then a grass helipad with a concrete one, complete with a gravelled access road for the ambulances. “It all really came about one morning after I had finished work,” said his wife Gay, who at the time was a senior night duty nurse in the hospital’s emergency department. “I had told Garry the
ambulance drivers had been complaining that it was difficult to drive up to the helipad and they were always getting bogged and sliding on the grass.” After hearing of the problems, Mr Ellis contacted the hospital and a few of his friends and contacts and had the project organised within a week. “At the time Garry was working for Pioneer Concreting,” Gay said. “He organised to have all the concrete and use of the trucks and machinery donated by Pioneer, and even contacted local quarries to get sand and
gravel donated. “He just wanted to give something back to his community and to the hospital.” Mr Ellis has since died and the construction of the new multi-storey car park has led to his helipad being removed. “It is because of his selflessness that many critical patients were able to easily access the air ambulances and receive the medical treatment they needed,” the hospital’s executive director Brendon Gardener said. “Garry’s legacy will still remain intact with plans to recognise his generous efforts at Frankston Hospital.”

Art therapy: Frankston Hospital patient Allan Deery has sculpted a likeness of himself connected to a dialysis machine while participating in the art therapy program run by Melissa Lucas.

PATIENTS at Frankston Hospital’s dialysis unit are receiving art therapy while undergoing treatment. Limited by the use of one arm and being connected for up to five hours at a time to a machine, patients are encouraged to allow space for selfreflection through art by painting, drawing, sculpture and visual stimulation with art journals. The weekly two-hour Art in Dialysis program started in September 2011 and is paid for by Frankston Arts Centre and the Brotherhood of St Laurence. An anonymous donor recently pledged money
to keep the program running for another year. “Painting is made more accessible for patients with easels that attach to the hospital side tables or lap stands to hold the working canvas in place,” art therapist Melissa Lucas said. “One patient is even sculpting the dialysis unit, slowly but surely bringing to life an original concept.” Ms Lucas said the extra money meant patients can “devise a public outcome, book or documentary to share with the greater community on the work they have accomplished with art therapy at Frankston Hospital”.
Grab a taste of the political life at forum ASPIRING politicians would do well to consider the gauntlet being thrown by a coalition of Kingston activist groups before deciding if local politics is indeed their bag. A taste of the argy bargy of political life is being offered by Kingston Conservation and Environment Coalition, Mordialloc Beaumaris Conservation League, Dingley Village Community Association, and the Kingston Residents Against More Multi Eyesore Developments. In the lead-up to council elections in October, the groups are asking candidates to submit to a grilling at an ‘election forum’ at Mordialloc Neighbourhood House and are distributing
a 14-question survey asking pointed posers such as, “Do you want to protect the green wedge in its entirety for environmental conservation, parkland, agriculture, recreation, open space, etc?” and “Would you support giving preference to local native street trees?” KCEC president Bronwen Biggs will collate the responses to the survey. “We feel that the electorate needs to be better informed on local issues when making a decision on who to elect,” she said. The election forum will be held at Mordialloc Neighbourhood House at 7pm on Wednesday 29 August. “The forum will give can-
didates the opportunity to express their views and answer questions on environmental and planning issues,” Ms Biggs said. Nominations for local government elections open on Thursday 20 September and close on Tuesday 25 September. The election takes place on 27 October and voting will be by postal ballot. Kingston council chief executive John Nevin said a recent council-run information session for prospective candidates was attended by 11 people, most of whom were women. Central Ward councillor Rosemary West is the sole female on the nine-member Kingston council.
Time to register for ‘life’ relay ORGANISERS of 2012’s Relay for Life at Frankston hope to raise $85,000 for cancer research. Teams in last year’s event reached $60,000 in the overnight relay.
The 18-hour relay will begin on Saturday 22 September at Ballam Park athletics track off Frankston-Cranbourne Rd. This year’s relay was launched last week by Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial, St
Kilda Football Club’s Farren Ray and Dunkley MP Bruce Billson. Team registrations close on Friday 14 September although registrations can be made at the event. Call 1300 6565 85.
Clean Ocean aims at Bass Coast
Good citizens nominations
By Keith Platt CLEAN Ocean Foundation is moving its office to Wonthaggi from where it will focus its energies on opposing the discharge of pollution from the desalination plant on the coast near Kilcunda. The organisation’s president Pete Smith says Clean Ocean will not be disbanded and still intends to keep the state government to its word about closing the sewage outfall at Gunnamatta and cleaning up discharge from the Mt Martha treatment plant. “The last month has seen some lively debate over the future direction of the Clean Ocean Foundation. With so much of the original vision almost realised, the association entered a period of necessary introspection,” Mr Smith told The News. His statements – in a news release headed “Clean Ocean back from the brink and into the drink” – followed the closing of the foundation’s Rosebud office amid allegations by outgoing CEO James Clark-Kennedy of mismanagement (‘Clean Ocean heads for the exit’, The News, 7/8/12). Mr Clark-Kennedy questioned the probity of decisions on the future of the foundation – including that it be wound up – being made by the committee headed by Mr Smith without reference to its members. The meeting was held on Friday 13 July. The following day Mr ClarkKennedy was notified that Clean Ocean no longer required his “contracted services”. Mr Smith said on Monday that the foundation would continue “as nor-
DO you know an outstanding community-minded person or group? Applications for City of Kingston’s 2013 Australia Day Awards are opewn. Nominations are encouraged for the Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of the Year, Community Group of the Year, and Young Community Group of the Year categories. “Kingston Council’s Australia Day Awards are held in high regard in the community and are just a small way that we can thank those who tirelessly volunteer their time and talents to the benefit of others,” Kingston mayor John Ronke said. The awards will be presented at Kingston’s Australia Day breakfast on 26 January next year. Nominees must be Australian citizens and live, work or study in the City of Kingston. They must have made a noteworthy contribution during the current year or provided outstanding service to the community over a number of years. Nominees for Young Citizen of the Year must be 25 years of age or younger on 26 January 2012. Community groups must be not-forprofit organisations operating within Kingston and have four or more members. Previous award winners are ineligible to win an award in the same category again. For more information, visit www. kingston.vic.gov.au/link/ausday or call 1300 653 356. Nominations close Friday 28 September.
Fighting on: Clean Ocean Foundation is moving, not closing, says to its president Pete Smith.
mal” until a general meeting was held toward the end of the year. He did not intend to seek re-appointment as president, but would be on the committee “if that’s what people want”. Mr Smith said the foundation had been formed nearly 12 years ago. In 2005 “as pressure from Clean Ocean looked likely to secure a commitment to upgrade the Eastern Treat-
ment Plant, an ambitious strategy was developed to shut down not only Gunnamatta but also all 142 outfalls around the country”. “Now, in 2012, works on the Eastern Treatment Plant [near Carrum] are well under way and tertiary upgrade is near completion [and] the association is preparing a campaign against the next target on the list – the Bass Coast
desalination plant. The foundation is back from the brink and into the drink; we have had our period of introspection and we are now moving forward to tackle one of Victoria’s greatest environmental challenges,” Mr Smith stated. “The outfall from this plant will be three times the volume of the daily outflow of effluent that is disposed of at Gunnamatta. “This outfall is called a ‘brine stream’ by the managing authorities, but critics call it a toxic cocktail of chemicals and waste from the desalination process. “There is also a very large volume of sludge produced and as yet there is very little information as to how this will be disposed.” Mr Smith said Clean Ocean had worked well with a Bass Coast group of members who had an action plan “to develop a transparent testing regime to monitor this outfall and sludge” and photograph the marine environment in the proposed discharge area. “This is a major step in the continuity of the mission of the foundation,” Mr Smith stated. “This issue is as serious as the Gunnamatta problem and will require dedication and tenacity. The campaign will highlight this issue in the community and at government level.” Mr Smith said the foundation would continue to monitor the Carrum treatment plant upgrade to tertiary standard “and keep active pressure on South East Water, which has been lagging in its upgrade program around the Mt Martha treatment process”.

Spy cameras record wild life in parks REMOTE sensor cameras have captured pictures of 32 native animal species living in parks throughout thesoutheast region and the Mornington Peninsula. The Signs of Healthy Parks program being run by Parks Victoria is used to determine the health of parks by monitoring the plants and animals that live in them. The cameras also filmed introduced species living in Point Nepean and Mornington Peninsula national parks and Langwarrin Flora and Fauna Reserve. More than 100 locations were surveyed in habitats varying from heathland and coastal scrub to woodland and creeksides. The results were “surprising and very pleasing”, according to Parks Victoria’s Mark Antos, who helped design the survey. “We picked up dozens of rare longnosed bandicoots at a lot more sites than expected, as well as white-footed dunnarts on the coastal strip, and even some unexpected Lewin’s rail birds at five sites. They can be very difficult to find because of their secretive habits. “I guess we thought that after 10 years of drought, a lot more urban development and constant pressure from cats, dogs and foxes there wouldn’t be a diverse range or good numbers of these vulnerable little creatures around. “But we’ve been pleased to find that they’ve been breeding up again with the recent good seasons.” Mr Antos was “almost certain” a rare native broad-toothed rat was filmed.
Investigations are being made to confirm the animal’s identity. “It’s never been recorded on the peninsula before,” Mr Antos said. “However we did see lots of introduced black rats at many sites. These aggressive rodents can raid birds’ nests and eat eggs and young hatchlings as well as native mice and baby mammals.” Parks Victoria ranger Louise Bracy said the findings of the survey were a reminder of how “local native residents” could be protected. “Don’t wander off walking tracks, observe dogs on lead signs, keep cats locked in at night, and don’t leave food scraps around to encourage rats and foxes,” she said. “There’s been a lot of emphasis on hooded plovers along the water’s edge where dogs and humans have a real impact, but there are also lots of other animals living on coastal strips between car parks and beaches, like wallabies, dunnarts and bandicoots.” Parks Victoria’s environment team leader Daniel Hudson said the survey results would help guide future planning. “It will really help us to make the best decisions on issues like where best to do ecological burning, what are the most important areas in a park for fox control, and which locations we need to protect from heavy use by visitors.” Footage of some of the animals filmed is at www.facebook.com/Parks Victoria

HISTORY
Forty years since arrests over gas pipe protests By Mike Hast IT’S 40 years since the tranquil Mordialloc foreshore was the site of a major confrontation over a gas pipeline planned to be laid under Port Phillip to Altona by BHP-Esso with the backing of the state government. The ethane gas pipeline controversy lasted for more than three years as the government and the Australian subsidiary of the US petroleum giant were ranged against Mordialloc Council, unions, conservationist groups and thousands of citizens. The issue reached a climax on Sunday 18 June 1972 when more than 3000 people protested on the beach near Mordialloc Life Saving Club not long before work was due to start. Three days later, on Wednesday 21 June, it reached a nadir when five pipeline opponents keeping a vigil on the beach were arrested and several others dragged away by police. Arrested were John Iggulden, president of the Port Phillip Conservation Council; Carrum resident Richard Oke of the Anti-Bay Pipeline Committee;
Rita Packer of the Hampton Conservation and Planning Society; St Kilda resident Gabrielle Beiers; and Jim O’Neill of the Amalgamated Metal Workers Union. Mr Iggulden – then aged 55 and the owner of an engineering company, a novelist and champion glider pilot – was frogmarched off the beach by police, locked up for a short time and later convicted of trespass in a magistrates’ court. His appeal in the Supreme Court the following year was upheld when Justice Sir John Norris found Mr Iggulden had been wrongly convicted and the state government had exceeded its lawful powers. Other arrests occurred at later protests. The controversy started in December 1969 when BHP-Esso asked Mordialloc Council for permission to bring its gas pipe into the municipality, which entailed digging up the foreshore and beach north of the creek before laying it in a trench under Port Phillip and across the bay to Altona. The council objected to the plan
Oil pipe stopped IN May 1971, a BHP-Esso proposal for an oil pipeline under Port Phillip was rejected by the Liberal state government after furious public opposition. The government decision came on the eve of the May state elections as worried MPs lobbied the premier, saying allowing an oil pipe under the bay would cost them their seats. The pipeline was re-routed on land around the top of Port Phillip. It is known as the WAG pipe – Western Port, Altona, Geelong – and takes crude oil from Hastings to Geelong. The decision proved to be prescient as the ethane pipeline was ruptured on 13 December 2008 when an anchor of the container ship APL Sydney snagged it during a storm, causing about 60 tonnes of gas to escape. It was repaired by early March 2009, but then followed a drawn-out legal process with pipeline owners BHP Billiton and ExxonMobil, and Altona gas customers attempting to recoup cost of repairs and losses from the ship’s managers. Almost $100 million was claimed, but only a third was awarded by the federal court. An Australian Transport Safety Bureau investigation found the ship’s anchor had been let go too close to the pipeline in gale force winds and insufficient anchor cable had been deployed. In March 2010 the Federal Court strongly berated the Port of Melbourne Authority and a Port Phillip sea pilot for failing the ship’s captain, who had been ordered to remain anchored while his vessel was pushed closer to the undersea ethane pipeline.
and asked the Mordialloc Coastline Conservation League to back its opposition. Other conservation groups joined the fray and asked for support from unions. In July 1971, the Trades Hall Council had withdrawn its ban on members working on the project, but 26 unions disagreed with the decision and maintained their opposition. Port Phillip Conservation Council, representing 19 groups, and the Conservation Council of Victoria, representing 85 groups, joined the anti-pipe lobby. The main objections to the undersea pipe included the precedent of laying a pipe under Port Phillip, potential environmental damage, a private pipeline being laid mostly on public land, and that the government and BHP-Esso had not undertaken sufficient studies or community consultation. The Port Phillip Conservation Council said at the time: “This is an ad hoc decision to introduce an industrial facility into a large natural area not previously industrialised. “It has been made in the total absence of any provision or forethought about the need to create a safe, accessible common pipelines corridor around Melbourne. “The foreshore reserves and seabed of Port Phillip should not be disrupted on such a scale for commercial or industrial purposes.” Mordialloc Council’s opposition to the gas pipe put it on a collision course with the state government. Councillors were wary of the BHPEsso proposal right from the start, perhaps with good reason.
A report from 1972 said Milton Warlow, BHP-Esso’s main pipe lobbyist, made the first presentation about the proposal in late 1969 at a meeting attended by councillors and a few members of Mordialloc Coastline Conservation League. Mr Warlow was asked by one councillor if ethane was inflammable. Mr Warlow asked: “What do you mean by inflammable?” Councillor: “We mean, does it burn?” Mr Warlow: “Oh no. It doesn’t burn – not unless you have some form of combustion.” The BHP-Esso man told the meeting the pipeline would not inconvenience the City of Mordialloc – except the city would not be able to carry out any earthworks, construct any buildings or plant any trees within BHP-Esso’s proposed 15-metre easement, which would enter the municipality beside the Mordialloc Main Drain and along Crown land beside Mordialloc Creek, which the council had planned to rehabilitate. Later, councillors arranged a meeting with the Minister for Fuel and Power, Jim Balfour, to ask for changes to the route. Conservation league members were forbidden from attending. Mr Balfour’s office said it was a meeting between him and the councillors. When Mr Balfour arrived in his government car, Milton Warlow stepped out of the vehicle. The mainstream media did not cover itself in glory, conservation groups said. Reports on television news channels focused on the unionists who had
been arrested or forced away from the fenced pipeline works on Mordialloc beach, which by day was protected by a phalanx of police and at night by a security guard armed with a shotgun. None of the conservationists arrested were named on one television report. Little mention was made of the combined opposition to the project by conservationists, unionists, and ordinary residents and concerned citizens. BHP-Esso officials were quoted talking about “union unrest”. One Esso public relations man years later told of how this was the first time photographing of protesters had been used to intimidate them. “We wanted to know who we were up against,” he said. One conservationist was furious that television channels and daily newspapers kept referring to the protest location as “the bay pipeline site”. “It was Mordialloc’s prime foreshore and beach area,” they said. There was, however, praise for the balanced coverage of the local papers, the Mordialloc Chelsea News. The council, conservationists and unionists lost the battle during those cold, dark days of June 1972. By December the pipeline had been completed after about five and a half months’ work and ethane gas was being pumped from Hastings to Altona. No destruction of marine life due to its presence has ever been publicly documented. However, the state government’s decision to refuse BHP-Esso’s proposal for an oil pipeline under Port Phillip proved to be a wise one (see box ‘Oil pipe stopped’).
The ethane gas pipe THE ethane gas pipe starts at Long Island Point in Hastings where Esso built a fractionation plant in 1970 to process Bass Strait gas, which is piped from Longford in south Gippsland. Raw methane gas is “fractionated” at Long Island Point into three gasses – ethane, propane and butane. Ethane is used in the manufacture of detergents and plastics; propane is the bottled gas used for barbecues, heating and cooking as well as in various industrial applications. Butane is mixed with propane to make LPG to power cars. Propane and butane are liquefied by pressure. The pipe from Hastings to Altona is 78 kilometres long and 254mm in diameter (about 10 inches). About 50km runs across land and 28km under Port Phillip between Mordialloc and Altona, where gas is supplied to customers.
Stop the pipe: In winter 1972, more than 3000 people rallied against the BHP-Esso ethane gas pipeline proposed to run under Port Phillip from Mordialloc to Altona. The pipe was operating by the end of 1972. Left, a map showing the route of the gas pipe. Only gas went under Port Phillip and a separate oil pipeline was built through Moorabbin and Brighton, closely following Port Phillip through Elwood, St Kilda and South Melbourne before continuing to the Altona refinery and Geelong.

Wood surf class stays in shape
Timber styling: Top left, Gary Miller (right) shows how it’s done during one of their do-it-yourself surfboard-making classes. Above, Gary Miller and Rob Ivers with two of their eco-friendly hollow wooden surfboards.
By Keith Platt HAWAIIANS used to surf with flat wooden boards. Early etchings dating from a visit by Captain James Cook show something not too dissimilar to a wooden ironing board. Cook was killed by the Hawaiians on 14 February1779, during his second trip to the archipelago, which he called the Sandwich Islands. The drawings of Hawaiians surfing were by one of Cook’s officers, Lieutenant James King, who wrote “they seem to feel a great pleasure in the motion that this exercise gives”. King is credited with making the first written account of surfing. Missionaries who eventually followed in Cook’s footsteps failed miserably to convince the Hawaiians that surfing was a sin. The Hawaiians introduced Australians to the early forerunners of today’s short boards, which are made from a variety of chemical-based materials, all highly carcinogenic if eaten or in-
based Rich Blundell, who was out here in April running a board-making workshop in the garage of Ivers’s Mt Eliza house. “We use his plans, which are selected and bought from his website,” Miller says. He said the “green push” is seeing increasing numbers of surfers showing an interest in making a hollow wooden board. Most surfers want to shape a board, but baulk at carving into a block of foam. The Tree to Sea designs are built on a frame similar to that underlying an aircraft wing. The frames are pre-cut by Miller and Ivers after the plans are chosen by each surfer in the class. The surfers are shown how to glue the lengths of paulownia together for the top and bottom decks, with thinner strips being glued along the edges, or rails. Thin strips of cedar are used for decoration or strength as stringers.
haled. But fibreglass, foam and resin work wonders. They can be moulded, and are durable and light. Surfboard design has evolved along with the availability and pliability of these materials. It has long been a recognised irony that while most surfers care for the environment (they wish to surf clean water and appreciate healthy marine ecosystems), they have the petrochemical industry to thank for their equipment. Balsa wood was used to shape surfboards before foam blanks became available, but the lightweight natural material soaked up water and had to be covered with fibreglass and resin. Timber veneers have been glassed over foam to attain a natural look. In the end, about 90 per cent of the board remains the same – fibreglass, foam and resin. A few years ago, purists again started riding ironing boards, but the movement has not taken off except as a novelty. The ironing board has nowhere

near the wave-catching ease or maneuverability of a board made from, you guessed it, fibreglass, foam and resin. Last week a class of eight at Mt Eliza learnt how to make a wooden surfboard that performs the same as its environmentally unfriendly lookalikes. Gary Miller and Rob Ivers were holding their third workshop with three more already booked out. Each workshop lasts three days and at the end everyone attending walks away with a wooden, environmentally friendly surfboard under their arm. The paulownia plantation-grown timber (native to China) practically lasts forever, Miller says. Widely used in furniture, caravans, yachts and window shutters, paulownia is easy to work and, best of all for a surfboard, doesn’t absorb water, although most boards are finished off with a coat of varnish (environmentally friendly, of course). Miller and Ivers operate under the Tree to Sea Australia banner, using plans and designs from United States-

Miller says young and old surfers have signed up for the classes and some secondary colleges are showing interest. “Making these boards could cut across three departments, technical, art and multimedia,” he says. And what about the acid test – actually riding a wooden board in the surf? “It’s got a lot to do with where your head is,” Miller says. “It’s different to a foam board. A bit heavier, which gives more momentum and glide. You can push through the whitewater. “Like any board, it’s all locked in with the surfboard shape and individual style.” The three days of tuition cost $450 and the board materials are $60 a foot (surfers and real estate agents still use imperial measures), which pretty much equate to the cost of a custom-built fibreglass, foam and resin job.

Where’s the mouse?: Tiger has the run of Tigertel, the company in Carrum Downs named after him. He’s “boss” of Optus Business Centre and has raised a few eyebrows wandering across the boardroom table during meetings. Tiger is pictured left with Ashlee Boaler, recently promoted to the Optus business unit from the Optus retail store. Above: Tiger with another sales representative Kristy Herdman. Below, Optus Business Centre co-owner Wes Bourke and Tiger.
From stray to ‘CEO’: this Tiger has telco by the tail By Keith Platt TIGER is a working cat. While he has no job description or official title, everyone knows Tiger has the run of the office. Why, they even named the company after him, Tigertel, the Optus Business Centre in Carrum Downs. A wellproportioned ginger cat, Tiger has his own door, a place to sleep and all meals supplied. There are toys, scratch poles and the hands of 15 staff ready with a pat. He’s a lapcat (when he chooses) and frequently finds a comfortable nestling space between someone’s back and the back of a chair. Unlike many working animals, Tiger isn’t expected to herd, lift or pull anything. He’s just there. The benefits of having animals at home and in the workplace are
acknowledged by the medical profession. Pets are used for therapy in hospitals and have been known to help people overcome depression and introversion. “There is evidence to show people who own pets are healthier and are less stressed,” Lort Smith Animal Hospital general manager veterinary service Dr Russell Harrison said. “We spend half of our waking hours at work, so it makes to sense to have a pet in the workplace. As with people, there comes a time when work pets need to retire. As the pet gets older, it may be better to be in a quieter home environment.” Tigertel is the business run by Wes Bourke and Brian McCue behind the Optus Business Centre in Carrum Downs. Bourke reckons Tiger is “the
luckiest cat in the world”. In 1999 Bourke and McCue were running the Optus World store in Frankston when staff heard a strange noise in the office. It took a few days to track down, but eventually one of them found a stray, undernourished kitten in an unused storage space under a stairwell. “Seeing he was in a bad way, the team leapt into action,” Bourke recalls. Milk and cat food were bought “to keep the little fella alive”; its bed was a box and rags; and, finally, a trip to the vet for a check-up and advice. A heart-winner from day one, the stray was named Tiger. Staff offered to take him home, but Bourke and McCue decided he should stay at the office.

Surfing sailors heading south for home
Homeward bound: Ted Bainbridge, front, used his mobile phone to take this photo of himself and fellow sailors Bernie O’Hanlon and David Whiteley off the New South Wales north coast.
By Keith Platt TED Bainbridge is lying in a bunk. The 56hp diesel engine is chugging along steadily while the sails pick up whatever wind they can to help the boat progress down the New South Wales coast. The day is sunny and Bainbridge and two fellow sailors Bernie O’Hanlon and David Whiteley have spent the morning spotting whales and studying weather patterns to decide when it will be best to seek a safe anchor before heading for home on the Mornington Peninsula. They are about to begin the last leg of a nine-month journey to Rye that has seen them sail almost halfway around the world from the Bahamas. Bainbridge and Whiteley, who lives in Perth, left Australia in October last year to pick up Glamorous Galah, a Beneteau Oceanis 393 sloop, in the British Virgin Islands. Before Christmas they sailed down to St Lucia where they were joined by O’Hanlon, of
Rye, for the start of the World ARC Rally. Glamorous Galah was the smallest monohull of the 30 boats in the fleet that sailed to the San Blas Islands, through the Panama Canal, Los Perlas Islands, Galapagos, Marquesas, Tuamotos, Society Islands, Suvarrow, Nuie, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu and Noumea. They arrived at Coffs Harbour two weeks ago and spent the weekend at Pittwater in Sydney waiting for the weather to clear before heading to Eden and then home. The rest of the fleet is in Mackay and will make its way around the world via Bali, South Africa and South America. When speaking to The News, Bainbridge said Glamorous Galah was off NSW’s Seal Rocks after leaving Coffs Harbour earlier that day. He had been “snoozing in my bunk” aboard “this caravan on the sea” before getting up to prepare dinner for O’Hanlon and Whiteley and eventually taking his turn at the helm.
Keen surfers – four boards are attached to their boat’s radar arch – the trio has managed to find waves in most of the ports of call. Bainbridge, co-owner of the Peninsula Surf Centre stores, described a day surfing a wave “something like Pines [at Shoreham] on a perfect atoll in the Cook Islands that was uninhabited, although someone lived there as a recluse in the 1950s”. The memories are plentiful, but overwhelming and Bainbridge is a bit stumped when asked for some other highlights of the trip. There were seals on the steps of the post office on the Galapagos Islands, warm water and the many different kinds of wildlife encountered sailing across the Pacific Ocean. It is all probably a bit much to ask him such a random question. “It’s been amazing and fantastic, but I’m really looking forward to getting home after nine months at sea.”

AROUND THE REGION
Shipyard SOS for manufacturers By Mike Hast MORNINGTON boat builder Mal Hart says governments must do more to protect Australian manufacturing. His comments came after a visit to his factory by Opposition leader Tony Abbott and federal MP Bruce Billson, whose electorate stretches from Seaford to Mt Martha. Mr Abbott was at Hart Marine as part of his national anti-carbon tax roadshow. The visit was arranged by Mr Billson, who has known Mr Hart for some years, and drew journalists and photographers from the three peninsula newspapers as well as crews from three TV stations. The Opposition leader fielded questions about border protection, federal treasurer Wayne Swan, the planned east-west freeway link in Melbourne and foreign investment. But he was in Mornington to continue his criticism of the federal government’s carbon price, introduced in July to force big polluters to change the way they do business. Mr Abbott has had great success with his mantra of a “great big new tax on everything”, but the government has failed to sell the message that setting a price on carbon will encourage the creation of renewable sources of energy, reduce energy consumption, and improve energy efficiency. Hart Marine is a world leader in building pilot boats based on a French design. It has built the distinctive wave-cutting boats for Port Phillip Sea Pilots, the Port of Albany in WA and is about to start two for a company in-
volved in the Gorgon gas project. Mr Hart was happy to lend his support to Mr Abbott’s anti-tax roadshow, but conceded the high Australian dollar had made it hard for manufacturers in recent times. “It has made manufacturers become uncompetitive very quickly.” “My concern is that manufacturers in this country need to be looked after,” he told The Times from Perth where he was headed to Albany. “We don’t need a carbon tax or high payroll tax or the other bits and pieces that affect our competitiveness.” There was not much that could be done about the high dollar, but “we can do something about the carbon tax, mining tax and payroll tax”. Manufacturing was fundamental to Australia remaining one of the great countries of the world, he said. Hart Marine had been successful “because we want the business and we’ve managed to keep costs and overheads down”. He said the company had invested heavily in technology to build pilot boats and would need to construct 10 before getting a return on investment. The company has three on the water, two on its order books and has fielded inquiries from the United States, Argentina and India. “Port Phillip Sea Pilots could have bought their boats overseas, but chose to support Australian business. Now we want the government to do the same,” he said. Mr Hart said the effect of the carbon tax on his business had not yet been quantified.

Legal centre move marks anniversary PENINSULA Community Legal Centre has marked its 35th anniversary by moving into a new building. While opening the new offices, Attorney-General Nicola Roxon said the legal centre’s “compassionate and committed team” helped “give the locals better legal and access to justice services”. Ms Roxon said the centre would this year receive $664,000 through the federal government’s Community Legal Services Program. The centre is one of the largest community legal centres in Australia, helping thousands of clients each year with free legal advice and ongoing assistance as well as undertaking community legal education and law reform activities. In 2011, it was named legal organisation of the year at the Law Institute of Victoria President’s Awards. “We estimate that over the course of the centre’s history, it has provided more than 100,000 free legal advices,” chief executive officer Helen Constas said. “About 80 per cent of the centre’s clients have no or low income – less than $26,000 a year – and could not afford to pay for legal assistance.” The centre began as Frankston North Legal Service in 1977 following a public meeting over the lack of free legal services. A part-time advice and referral service was established with the support of Frankston Council and local lawyer and community volunteers. Ms Constas described the relocation of the centre’s head office to 441 Nepean Highway, Frankston, as “the realisation of a long-held dream of many”. “I am delighted the centre now has premises that promote client dignity and privacy as well as affording a safe and pleasant working environment for volunteers and staff. “While we are rightly proud of the high volume and high-quality services we provide, we are acutely aware of the continuing and unmet needs for free legal services in our community, and it is our mission to keep striving to advance justice in our community.” Community Law Australia campaign spokes-

man Hugh de Kretser described the centre as “a leading example of the value and support that a community legal centre can offer to people in need”. “People seeking help with issues like family violence, dodgy landlords, sorting out difficult family relationships or debt problems need somewhere to turn for quality legal advice,” Mr de Kretser said. “Legal issues like these arise no matter what’s in your bank balance or your circumstances.” Mr de Krester said research by the Australia Institute earlier this year conservatively estimated half a million Australians each year missed out on legal help, mainly for financial reasons. “Community legal centres help people who don’t qualify for legal aid but can’t afford a private lawyer. Their expertise is free, however their time and resources are extremely stretched by the high level of demand.” He said although the peninsula centre was one
of the largest in Victoria “it faces major challenges in meeting the demand for help”. “Attorney-General Nicola Roxon and Shadow Attorney-General George Brandis have both acknowledged that the issue of access is a vital one. We look forward to working with them to make equal access to the law a reality in Australia.” The free legal services are aimed at helping disadvantaged clients with legal issues, either over the phone or in person at the centre’s head office in Frankston, branches in Bentleigh, Cranbourne, Frankston North and Rosebud or outreach services in Chelsea and Hastings and duty lawyer services at Frankston Magistrates’ Court and Dandenong Family Law Courts. The centre operates specialist programs in family law, family violence and child support, as well as advocacy for vulnerable and disadvantaged tenants and consumers.

Performance NEIL Diamond was a major songwriter before a producer suggested he record his own songs after hearing him playing in local coffee shops. He had penned hits such as I’m a Believer (The Monkees), He Ain’t Heavy (Hollies) and The Boat that I Row (Lulu) among many others. Diamond signed to Bang Records and released his first three singles – Solitary Man, Cherry Cherry and I’ve Got the Feeling. His big break came with the release of Sweet Caroline, which hit No. 4 on the United States charts and his first United Kingdom hit Cracklin’ Rosie. Diamond went through a slight image change from clean-cut to longer hair and had hits with I Am I Said, Song Sung Blue, as well as the Hot August Night live set and the Jonathan Livingston Seagull soundtrack album. For me another Diamond highlight was the Beautiful Noise album in 1974 produced by Robbie Roberston. Diamond also did a duet with Barbra Streisand on the hit You Don’t Bring Me Flowers and starred in the 1980 remake of the film The Jazz Singer. Albums like Primitive, Headed For the Future (1986) and Lovescape (1991) testified to his enduring success, and in 1993 he celebrated his past with On the Roof – Songs of the Brill Building. Hot August Night holds a special place in the hearts of many Australians. I remember picking up a vinyl copy of the album from Brashs; then some years down the line a CD. To mark the anniversary Universal Music will release Neil Diamond Hot August Night 40th Anniversary Edition. The album will include previously unreleased songs recorded at the anniversary show. A Modern Day Version of Love is one of his songs from 1968
finally featured on the new album. The Randy Newman song I Think It’s Going to Rain Today was left off the original. The song Gitchy Goomy he introduces as a philosophy lesson to a child learning about life. Originally recorded at Los Angeles’ legendary Greek Theatre in 1972, the 40 th anniversary edition is fully remastered, housed in deluxe packaging, features previously unreleased additional tracks and includes new photos and new extended liner notes, personally overseen by Diamond. On its release in 1972, it stormed up the Australian charts, spending 29 weeks at No. 1. It became the Diamond album and cemented his status as a legend. The album, and its “Good Lord” catchcry from Crunchy Granola Suite, became
inescapable – such was the albums unparalleled ubiquity. Still one of the biggest selling albums of all time in Australia, this amazing live performance is now expanded to mark its 40th year. Hot August Night still lives up to its reputation as the ultimate Diamond record. Tracks featured include Crunchy Granola Suite, Cherry Cherry, Red Red Wine, Porcupine Pie, Shilo, Kentucky Woman, Play Me, Holly Holy, Song Sung Blue and previously unreleased bonus tracks. This is a truly lovingly constructed celebration of one of the most cherished recordings of recorded music history. www.universalmusic.net.au www.neildiamond.com

Award-winning Edwards is directing a new staging of the Tim Rice, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson musical. Tony Bartuccio choreographs and David Piper conducts. The life of the musical Chess has been as chequered as the board on which the game is played. It had success as a concept album in 1974 and was a smash hit when it was staged on London’s West End in 1986. It ran for three years and reviews were enthusiastic. Sir Tim Rice – who wrote the books for Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, The Lion King and Evita – collaborated with the men from ABBA, Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, to create the musical Chess. In the musical, the game of chess becomes more than a tournament; it encompasses romantic rivalries and east-west political intrigue. The 33-strong cast includes Simon Gleeson, Silvie Paladino, Martin Crewes, Mark Dickinson, Michael Falzon and Bert La Bonte supported by Orchestra Victoria.

By Gary Turner THIS year is the 40th anniversary of the release of Deep Purple’s landmark album Machine Head. In recognition of the band’s influence, and that of the album in particular, some of rock music’s biggest names have contributed a version of their favourite track on the album to create Re-Machined – A Tribute to Deep Purple’s Machine Head. There are two wildly differing versions of the album’s most famous track Smoke on the Water, one from guitar hero Carlos Santana with vocals by Jacoby Shaddix, and one from alternative rockers Flaming Lips. Metallica has contributed its own special take on When a Blind Man Cries, a track recorded at the Machine Head sessions but originally released by Deep Purple as the B side to Never Before. This is a unique release that will appeal to rock fans everywhere. It features specially recorded tracks from former Deep Purple member Glenn Hughes with Chad Smith of Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Chickenfoot, Black Label Society, Carlos Santana and Jacoby Shaddix, Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa and the supergroup Kings Of Chaos featuring Joe Elliott, Steve Stevens, Duff Mckagan and Matt Sorum.

... and other short stories
Great bumper stickers of history By Stuart McCullough ONCE, they were everywhere. Clinging to the rear of thousands of cars, they declared a single, simple sentiment to the broader world. Namely, that Magic Happens. In the 1990s, the bumper stickers were commonplace. Now they are all but extinct. I never really understood what it was they hoped to tell me. There was absolutely nothing by way of an explanation on offer. Apparently, there was magic and, moreover, it was happening. Where it was happening or how this magic was said to manifest itself was left largely to the imagination. Based on the sheer weight of numbers, you could rightly have expected to see people pulling rabbits out of their pockets and shouting “abracadabra” on an almost daily basis. Sadly, that’s not how I remember the 1990s at all. A Magic Happens bumper sticker was only ever affixed to a certain kind of vehicle. Porches, BMWs and Mercs were, presumably, magic enough and had no need for such declarations. Rather, they were only ever seen on two types of cars. First, there was the kind of vehicle that looked as though it had just been dragged into the street and beaten within an inch of its life over an unpaid debt. Wherever the magic was happening, it was clearly not happening to the automobile itself, unless you count the mere fact of it being able to get itself from
point A to point B to be a mystical act in its own right. The second kind of vehicle often found to be home to a Magic Happens sticker were those that looked like a Matchbox car that had overdosed on growth hormone, driven only by people on P plates. Perhaps the magic was in the fact of having successfully obtained a driving licence. But given their apparent extinction, is it fair to say that magic is no longer happening? Was there something of a glut of magic in the 1990s that now accounts for its acute shortage? Perhaps magic is much like a mineral deposit or school of fish and the supply has simply been exhausted. Then again, maybe we are just in something of a magic drought, with the supernatural at the mercy of an El Nino pattern that keeps the mystical at bay. Whatever the case, an explanation is way overdue. Frankly, those who once saw fit to tell us that “magic happens” owe the rest of us an account as to what happened to the magic and when
we can expect it to return. It’s not the first or last time that such a sticker has confused me. In the 1980s, there were stickers that referred to a brand of sunglasses offering Thermonuclear protection. In the shadow of the cold war, it’s not the kind of claim you’d want to have to put to the test. Then again, bumper stickers have a proud history of confusion. Such stickers appeal to the drivers more than anyone else. All the same, they have been popular for centuries. Ever since Alexander the Great barged through the Gates of Persia sitting astride an elephant with the words: My Other Elephant is also an Elephant tattooed across its buttocks, bumper stickers have been popular additions to your transport of choice. My favourites include the bumper sticker affixed to the back of the Hindenburg: If you can read this, you’re too close and the sticker on the back of the first version of the Popemobile: Horn Broken, Watch for Finger.
But for a time, sharing your thoughts with both your bumper and the world at large fell out of fashion. Nobody bragged about having thermonuclear protection, much less claimed that Magic Happens. Recently, however, things have started to change. For this, one set of bumper stickers can stand up and take a very stick figurey kind of bow. I speak, of course, of the “My Family” stickers. Strictly speaking, they’re not bumper stickers, as they are always located on the back window and consist of spidery, crime-scene outlines said to represent various family members. As far as I can tell, there seem to be a great many varieties, with the objective being that you choose a sticker that includes some activity said to be representative of the individual. It seems like a lot of information to volunteer. Perhaps in the age of Facebook, in which traditional notions of privacy have been largely disregarded, this is merely an inevitable
byproduct. All the same, it feels like a kind of bragging. Oftentimes, “My Family” stickers appear on very large vehicles – the kind that could just as easily be used to launch a major land-based incursion into another country as it could take the kids to football training. Perhaps declaring the number of family members requiring transport is a way of accounting for why they drive a car with such an insatiable thirst for fuel. I do, however, question the accuracy of these stickers. To date, I’m yet to see any picturing the members of the household sitting down and watching the television. Personally, I’d like to see a sticker of a family member selecting stickers. For me, such stickers may be shortsighted. What happens when a child grows up and moves out? Or, worse still, what if there is a schism that results in a fracturing of the family unit? Few days will be as difficult as the day you have to peel someone off your back window. Or, for the sake of accuracy, have to relocate them from the bottom left corner to somewhere else on the glass to more precisely represent the state of affairs. I suspect these declarations are something of a fad. These stickers will one day vanish. Doubtless it will happen in the blink of an eye. So quickly that it will seem like an act of magic. Perhaps a new sticker will replace the “My Family” stickers, simply saying: Magic Happened. www.stuartmccullough.com

HISTORY
William Mair: soldier and chairman of the board By Graham J Whitehead WILLIAM Mair was one of the founders of local government in what is now a substantial part of the City of Kingston. This reflected his interest in local issues, but by profession he was a soldier. Born into a military family in Glasgow on 31 August 1806, William’s father was Hugh Mair, an army veteran with 46 years’ service with the Black Watch. This service included fighting the French led by Napoleon Bonaparte in the Egyptian campaign of 1801 and later in the Peninsular War (for control of the Iberian Peninsula, 1807-14), both under the leadership of the Duke of Wellington. After attending schools at Inverness, Glasgow and Londonderry, William Mair received his first commission in 1830 in the 99th Lanarkshire Regiment of the British Army. He started his overseas service in Mauritius the following year. While there he was promoted to lieutenant before returning to Ireland in 1837 where he remained for four years. In 1841 he sailed to the Australian colonies on the transport Richard Webb, responsible for the guard supervising 200 convicts travelling from Dublin to Van Diemen’s Land (Tasmania). After arriving in Hobart, he continued to Sydney where he landed in January 1842. In February 1843, governor Sir George Gipps appointed him adjutant and paymaster of the New South Wales military mounted police force, then employed in the suppression of bushrangers and others engaged in illegal acts. These duties gave him the opportunity to travel to outlying stations such as Maitland, Penrith, Bathurst, Goulburn and Yass, and with the permission of the Superintendent of Port Phillip, Charles La Trobe, he rode as far as Port Fairy before returning to Sydney via Albury and Goulburn in January 1844. On 13 July 1846, a serious altercation occurred between Roman Catholic and Protestant Irishmen outside the Pastoral Hotel in Melbourne, requiring military intervention and reading of the Riot Act by the mayor. A small number of Orangemen were making preparations for an anniversary banquet when they were attacked “by an armed rabble of the lowest description of the Irish papists”, according to The Argus report.
The Mayor of Melbourne, J F Palmer, reported to Superintendent La Trobe, “About half-past two o’clock, on the afternoon of the 13th instant, the banners of the Orange Society were exhibited at the windows of the Pastoral, which immediately operated as a signal to the opposite party, who soon after assembled in force on the spot, and demanded that the colours should be withdrawn, this demand not having been complied with, the clamour of the opponent party became louder and the numbers rapidly augmented; at the same time, several among the crowd and others hastening to join in were observed to be armed with firearms.” Palmer highlighted the fact that the police force under his command was, with one exception, exclusively composed of Irish men; and that on the occasion of the riot it could not be prevailed on to act. After the riot, the town magistrates met and proposed to the government that 10 additional constables be appointed and the daily rate of pay for constables increased to three shillings. The Argus, while reporting this meeting, pointed to the “glaring incapability of the men in authority”. It was in October 1846 that Superintendent La Trobe acted to appoint additional mounted police and asked William Mair to take command of the unit. Mair resigned his position as adjutant in Sydney and rode to Melbourne, enlisting men for the detachment as he travelled. He was promoted to captain and remained commandant of the force until it was recalled to Sydney in 1849 and disbanded. Mair then accepted an appointment by Sir Charles Fitzroy as a commissioner for the settlement of disputed boundaries of pastoral runs in Gippsland. Having successfully completed this task, he was appointed in January 1851 to the position of police magistrate for Belfast, later to be called Port Fairy. His task was to establish police courts at Belfast, Warrnambool and Hexham, and to preside over their deliberations. In the following month Mair was also made a trustee of the Belfast branch of Port Phillip Savings Bank. With the discovery of gold and increased mining activity in Victoria, Mair was transferred in September 1851 to Buninyong and Ballarat

where he established police courts and acted as chief commissioner in charge of the Ballarat goldfields. Sheehy records that in 1852 Mair was asked to “enrol, equip and drill a mounted police force for escort and other duties on the goldfields, and at a depot in Melbourne he recruited 12 officers, 18 gentlemen and 250 troopers, the first cadet corps raised in the colony”. At the start of the next year police units in the Port Phillip District were amalgamated and Mair became the paymaster of the new group under the command of W H Mitchell, a task for which he received an annual salary of £700. He remained in the police force until January 1875, but had resigned and sold his commission in the army 20 years earlier. Although no longer holding a commission in the permanent military forces, Mair maintained his interest in military affairs by joining and taking command in 1860 of the newly formed unit called the Brighton Volunteer Rifle Corps. While serving in this unit he was promoted to lieutenant colonel. Later he was appointed to the command of the St Kilda volunteer district, and in 1875 to the Melbourne district where he remained until January 1884. He retired from military service two years later with the honorary rank of colonel and the Victorian Decoration. In addition to military service, William Mair played an active role in local community affairs, serving for several years as a magistrate on the police bench at Brighton and as chairman of the Moorabbin Roads Board. (Roads boards were the forerunner of councils.) He was approached by landholders E Townsend, J Brown, John Miller, Joseph James and William Keilor and householders G Middleton, David Cameron, Joseph James, James Wilkins, Thomas Edmeads and James Exley to convene a meeting of Moorabbin district residents to elect the members of the Moorabbin board. It is said that he stood on a barrel at Jesse Morley’s hotel in South Brighton before a crowd of 200 people so he could be seen and heard. Twentythree men were nominated for office and Francis, West, Miles, Collyer, Townsend, Brown, Learey and Hughes were elected together with William Mair. At the first meeting of the board,
Military man: William Mair was one of the founders of local government in what is now part of the City of Kingston.
Mair was elected chairman, a position he held for four years. During this time the board made decisions about road tolls, rates, construction of roads, the establishment of the offices of the board and the appointment of its officers. On his retirement from the board in 1866, his fellow members presented him with an illuminated letter thanking him for his contribution in “discharging onerous and oftimes difficult duties” and acknowledging his “gentlemanly and honourable bearing and character”. Colonel Mair lived on the Esplanade (Beach Rd) on the south side of South Rd from where he continued an interest in community affairs, writing letters to the shire council, and serving on the police bench at Brighton. His letters usually related to the completion of work tasks. For example, he wrote asking for fencing of part of the beach reserve as well as the kerbing and channelling of a street in his vicinity. Invariably the councillors turned down his pleas, citing lack of money. On 7 October 1875, the council’s
secretary to Mair to ascertain by what authority he claimed to exercise control of the beach reserve west of Beach Rd between the Terminus and Picnic Point. His answer to this enquiry is not known. He retired to Nyora in Gippsland where he died on 1 January 1904 aged 97 from exhaustion and senile decay. Charles, one of his four sons and six daughters from his marriage to Catherine, nee Lyons, reported his death. A report of his death in the Brighton Southern Cross pointed out his invaluable services to the district was worthy of some recognition and suggested the street running along the eastern boundary of Brighton Cricket Ground be gazetted as Mair St so his name was preserved for posterity. This was done, a modest reward for his significant contribution to the early development of the community. Published courtesy of Kingston City Council.

Gulls must beat Langy to make finals PENINSULA DIVISION By Toe Punt JUST one week to go! That’s all you can hear at Chelsea Football Club after a disastrous season got worse on Saturday. Chelsea was held goalless for three quarters against premiership fancy Karingal. At the beginning of the MPNFL season, Chelsea had done enough in the off-season to be involved in the same conversation that included YCW and Karingal. The Gulls were left wanting at the end of the 2011 season but had recruited well and were expecting great things. The season started well, too, with solid victories over Edithvale-Aspendale and Pines. However, then Frankston YCW handed out a 78-point belting. The Gulls booted three goals that day. In round four Chelsea hammered Mornington, then came from behind to beat Bonbeach. They were four and one. The VCFL championships gave everyone a week off, but the Seagulls must have relaxed too much. They were smashed by Mt Eliza to the tune of 100 points before bouncing back against Seaford. At this stage, the Gulls were in the five with five wins and two losses.
It was the round eight belting by Karingal that sent the club backward. It had a few injuries and a couple of players walked. Although they bounced back against Langwarrin the following week, and had a win against Edi-Asp on a Sunday, not a lot has gone right since then. On Saturday against the Bulls, it was embarrassing again, much like the round 12 game against YCW when Chelsea booted just one goal. Chelsea was below par on the weekend, but Karingal was mighty once again. The Bulls had 42 scoring shots to seven with Chris Hay booting 10 goals. “Cocky” now has 77 for the season and leads Scott Lockwood by six with just one round to go. This isn’t bad for a bloke who made a comeback halfway through last year after spending three seasons on the golf course. I think people forgot how good Chris Hay was – and is. He was a junior superstar who could have been anything. Now he is a star for his beloved Karingal club. His junior combatant, Michael Burke, finished with six goals and James Tyquin, Steve Charalambous and Troy Hoad continued their dominant form. Nigel Carmody, Robbie Lancaster and Sam Carpenter were brilliant for the Gulls. Carmody and Carpenter have been sensational all season.
Mornington was humiliated against Karingal in the previous round, beaten by 180 points, and needed to make a stand on Saturday and they did, leading for the large majority of the day to knock over Langwarrin. The Dogs had outstanding second and third quarters, booting nine goals to three to lead by 28 points at the final change. The Kangas came back in the last quarter, thanks to the run of Dylan Luxa and Sean Herdman, but still went down by 10 points. Chris Paxino booted five for the Dogs, and Michael Braay, Chris Baker and Byron Murphy dominated. Aaron Shaw finished with five for the Kangas and Michael Parker was also at his best. Mt Eliza had to fight tooth and nail to get the job done against Pines, winning by just nine points. The Redlegs trailed by 19 points at half-time and by two points at threequarter time. Pines had the wind in the last quarter. Thanks to Ben Landry with three goals and Dan Gormley and skipper Jimmy Clayton, the Redlegs kicked four goals to two in the last against the tide to claim a good win. Guy Hendry booted three, and Stevey Ryan, Luke Potts and Shaun White two each for the Pythons, while 17-yearold Rhys Chalkley was outstanding. Chris Guganovic and Dave Marguglio
Good year: Sam Carpenter, above, has had a good year but not so his team, Chelsea Seagulls, which has been up and down. The team was beaten comprehensively on Saturday by Karingal. To make the finals, the Gulls must win on Saturday and hope Edi-Asp beat Seaford. Pictures: Andrew Hurst

were also fine contributors across four quarters for the Pythons. With a good finish to the season, Pines could be a great place next season and shouldn’t have too much trouble recruiting. Frankston YCW geared up for its tilt at Mt Eliza this weekend, easily accounting for Seaford to the tune of 54 points. The Stonecats restricted the Tigers to just one goal in the first half and three for the match. Daniel Smith and Kyle Hutchison booted three each for the winners, and Lew Roberts contributed two. Rhys Johnson and Adrian McIntyre were outstanding for YCW. For the Tigers, Aaron Walton finished with two goals and Luke Smith, Peter Azzopardi and Chris Irving worked tirelessly. Bonbeach will play finals in 2012, a magnificent effort. At the end of last season, the Sharks lost a coach and key players. This left only stalwarts who wanted to play in the red, white and black and they started over again. The best thing the club did was appoint Stevey Capp as coach. Many in football circles doubted his footy credentials. “Cappy” wasn’t a big name or a star MPNFL senior player. He is intelligent, passionate, a football educator and a leader of men. Look at the results. The Sharks have
been the most consistent side in the competition outside of the top three. They are now two games clear in fourth place with one round to go. The Sharks should beat Mornington, but it doesn’t matter if they don’t. Chelsea play Langwarrin at Langwarrin and Seaford play Edi-Asp at home. If the Gulls win and Tigers lose, Chelsea will play finals. If the Gulls win and Seaford wins, the Tigers’ percentage is far greater and they get in. Regardless, the Sharks are in and can fine-tune for their first final this week. On Saturday against the EdithvaleAspendale, Bonbeach had to fight. It was good preparation. The Eagles had a sensational third quarter and led by 11 points at the final change. Bonbeach kicked four goals to two points in the last quarter to win by 17. Daniel Smith, as always, led from the front, while Shaun Foster, Mark Tyrrell and Jackson Casey were outstanding. The Eagles were far from disgraced. Tim Mannix (three goals) and Beau Turner were outstanding, and Brad Tagg also finished with three in a classy performance. Pat Poore also made a welcome return and contributed well, assisting Nick Connellan in the big man department.

Bombers miss finals, Dales shock Sharks NEPEAN DIVISION
By Toe Punt SORRENTO went into safe mode against Pearcedale at the 28-minute mark of the last quarter on Saturday and paid the ultimate price. The Sharks’ 16-year-old forward Jayden Tompkins kicked a goal well into time-on in the final term at Tractor Park to give the visitors a 10-point lead. Thinking there was just a minute or so left on the clock, the Sorrento brains trust decided to put some players “on ice”. Key contested ball winner Leigh Treeby was taken from the field, as was young ruckman Jon Croad. Pearcedale, which had been well and truly in the contest all afternoon, continued to push hard in the hope of winning its fourth game in the past five weeks. The Dales kicked three goals in three minutes to snatch the lead and take the ultimate scalp in the final game of the season. The final siren sounded at the 35-minute mark of the last quarter. The Sharks interchange crew got it horribly wrong. It was a wonderful way for the Panthers to finish the season, given their poor start. Ben Cadd re-signed with the club during the week, a major coup. Finishing the season in winning form also holds them in good stead to add to their list in the off-season. On Saturday, Daniel Murray also finished the season on a high, kicking
four goals, while star players Chris Fortnam, Pat Cadd and Tony Lester dominated. Also finishing the season with yet another outstanding performer was Dean Jannsen, who was named Pearcedale’s best yet again. The Sharks have been in average form since their massive win against Rye. After that game, Sorrento consolidated top spot on the ladder. It lost the following week against Dromana, did what it had to against Rosebud and has now lost to Pearcedale. In the second semi-final, the Sharks will regain Scott Cameron and Ben Schwarze. However, it does appear they will play finals without key forward Leigh Poholke, who busted a finger on Saturday. Frankston Bombers coach Tony Blackford will sit down with the club in the next couple of weeks to discuss his future after his side was bundled out of the finals race on Saturday by Crib Point. The equation was simple: Frankston needed to win to make the finals. Crib Point needed to win and hope Rosebud lost to Rye. The Magpies held up their end of the bargain, but Rosebud beat Rye and Crib Point’s tilt at a finals berth is over. Rye, Crib Point and Frankston all finished on nine wins, but the Demons boasted the best percentage, which saved them in the end. Blackford said he believed his club had underachieved since winning the flag in 2009.
Finals venues a worry LET’S cross our fingers that the MPNFL has a very good look at the state of the selected Nepean Division finals venues very early this week, before declaring them for the weekend. Both Pearcedale and Rosebud are not conducive to good finals footy. Sorrento was extremely unimpressed with the surface at Pearcedale, despite the fact they won’t have to play there. There was a video doing the rounds on Sunday of the Pearcedale surface. It’s not good enough for finals. There were many people complaining about Rosebud as a finals venue, too. Not
“There are some circumstances that have contributed to this but at the end of the day, we haven’t improved on the field since winning the flag,” Blackford said. “I’ll sit down with the club and they can tell me the direction that they would like to go. “I love the place and wouldn’t go anywhere else now but the club is bigger than any individual and I want to see them succeed. “If that means I’m coach, then great, but if they want to go in a different direction, then I’ll understand that also.” The Bombers led Crib Point at half-time by 11 points after taking advantage of the wind in the second term. However, with the wind in the third, Crib Point was so much more desperate than their opponent and in a 10-minute onslaught blew Frankston away. The Magpies booted five goals in eight minutes and finished with six for the term to lead by 20 at three-quarter time. Coach Dave Lawson booted two goals in the third, Jon Flack booted a couple to finish with five for the game and the likes of Brad Davidson and James Cook took control. David Cook also was outstanding and Matt Sloper did a great job on Brad Wakeling. When the Pies kicked the first goal of the final term, the game was over. Dean Wagner played a cameo role in the ruck for the Bombers and did it to great effect, while Jay Page finished the season in great fashion, as did Ben Simmons.
just Rye players and officials either. Finals should be played on the best grounds available, regardless of their location. Rye and Sorrento clearly have the best venues, while Somerville isn’t too bad. A call was put in to new league boss Jeff Jones on Sunday, but at the time of going to print, there was still no word on the intentions of the league.
Jonesy notches 1000 SPEAKING of Jeff Jones, the Southern Umpires Association chairman and MPNFL CEO umpired his 1000th game on Saturday. Starting in 1982, Jones kicked off his career as a boundary umpire at age eight. He joined SUA in 1986 and umpired his first senior game at age 13. He has umpired nine Peninsula Division grand finals, three Nepean Division grand finals, two reserves grand finals and three Under-18 grand finals. He also umpired in the VFL/AFL for four

Rosebud simply needed to beat Rye to play in the finals and played accordingly, smashing the Demons by 39 points. The home side booted five goals to one in the first quarter, which set up the win. All expected to see Rye’s Justin Van Unen boot the two goals he needed to get his 100th early in the clash., but it took until the third quarter for the entire Rye team to kick its second goal. Van Unen was kept goalless and will have to front up this week against the same side in the elimination final to reach the milestone. Brenton Davidge caused all sorts of headaches for the Demons, and Lachy Armstrong was back in the line-up and contributed three. Jake Jarman and Brenton Payne were outstanding for the Buds, and Rogers was solid across half-back. Matt McIndoes was Rye’s most productive player with two goals, and Sam Smith was a welcome return in the middle. Andrew Dean presented in attack and worked hard. The Buds have now beaten Rye twice this season. They would have to be confident this week, especially with Ben Schultz and Daniel Giarusso back in the side. Devon Meadows booted five goals in the third quarter to set up a great win over Red Hill. It’s been a tough season for Devon in its first year back in Nepean Division, but at least the club was finished the season on a high note. Andrew Oldmeadow was outstanding for the winners with two goals

Buds bag ‘JV’. IT didn’t take Rosebud supporters long to stick the boots in to Justin Van Unen (pictured) on Saturday night. Social media is instant and after the match between Rye and Rosebud where Van Unen failed to kick a goal, there was picture of him with a caption placed on Facebook. The picture had been taken from the MPNFL site and the caption read: “Missing. Missing between the hours of 2pm and 5pm @ Rosebud Football Oval.” Van Unen needed two goals to make it 100 for the season. He gets another chance against the Buds this week in the do or die elimination final. I’m not sure Rosebud coach Mark Hustwaite would have been overly excited about the Facebook posting.

while Billy Hayes and Craig Thorne were impressive. Tyabb finished the season on a high, while opponent Somerville ended its season in poor fashion. The Yabbies were in control of the match for much of the afternoon with Ryan Jones dominating. Matty Dimkos and Ben Gould also were outstanding performers for the Yabbies. Jess Sutton finished in a blaze of glory for the Eagles, as did Emilio Bitters and Jon Edwards. Hastings got the upper hand in the mind games with Dromana, winning a low-scoring affair in ordinary conditions. The Blues made the most of their opportunities, while the visitors hit the post five times. The Tigers are likely to lose important defender Ryan Worn for a couple of weeks after he was reported by three umpires for a late hit on Mark Deveraux five minutes before the end of the game. Guy Martin played his second game of the season for the Blues and finished with three goals. Dromana coach Gavin Artico said the game was a mud fight. “Obviously Hastings was playing for the double chance and we didn’t have a lot to play for,” Artico said. “Hastings played the better footy for longer periods and deserved to win. “Hopefully we’ll play on a better deck this week, which is more conducive to top-of-the-table footy.”

CHELSEA – MORDIALLOC NEWS scoreboard
Driver steers Langy to upset, Skye tames Cobras By Craig MacKenzie MIDFIELD magician Chris Driver spearheaded Langwarrin’s stunning 4-1 upset of State League 2 ladder leader Eastern Lions at Lawton Park last Saturday week. The former Mauritian international has scored some memorable goals in 2012 that have lit up an otherwise gloomy season for Langy, but he may not score a more important one than his second in the second half, which turned the controversial contest on its head. The match sprang to life just after the interval when former Langy star Ray Markley finished off the excellent work of quicksilver right-winger Munyaradzi Nyadzayo. Home fans had been seething when they failed to win a penalty late in the first half, but they changed their tune when the referee pointed to the spot in the 63rd minute and Driver converted to make it 1-1. Two minutes later Driver ballooned a free kick, but in the 68th minute he became an instant hero when he unleashed a staggering 30-metre strike that gave Lions’ custodian Andy Lightfoot no chance. The momentum was now with the home side and when the assistant referee was caught out of position as Langy broke quickly, he was unable to judge that Liam Ryan was offside. The young striker, whose work rate was phenomenal, motored into the Lions’ area then struck a low shot across a diving Lightfoot and inside the far post to make it 3-1. Lions’ ace striker Oran Harel had a great chance to reduce the deficit in the 79th minute and although his lob beat stranded Langy keeper Michael Sivulja, the ball struck the top of the bar and bounced over.
A dismal day for the visitors was completed a few minutes later when a dreadful defensive wall was exposed by Langy substitute Nathan Bennis with a low free kick from just outside the area that went inside the near post. Peninsula Strikers went down to champion-elect Doveton 3-2 on Saturday in their State League 3 battle at Waratah Reserve. A Ross Robertson own goal saw the Doves take a slender lead into the halftime break. Within 15 minutes of the restart, it was 3-0 thanks to a Simon Mur goal and an Alex Akrivopoulos own goal. Strikers hit back when Ben Caffrey made it 3-1 in the 70th minute after the home team failed to clear following an Akrivopoulos corner, and a repeat set piece five minutes later saw Miron Andronicos heading home to make it 3-2. Strikers put the home side under pressure during the closing stages but to no avail. “The second 45 [minutes] was probably our best performance of the year,” said Strikers coach Jamie Skelly. Three 17-year-olds featured in Strikers’ starting line-up and another three were on the substitutes’ bench. Frankston Pines kept its slim hopes of promotion alive with a last-gasp winner against Brandon Park at Monterey Reserve on Saturday. “We’re out of the commission houses now, mate, and we’re looking at a twobedroom flat in Dandenong,” was the tongue-in-cheek summation of Pines’ season by senior coach Danny Verdun. “We rode our luck against Brandon Park. They’ve got George Hughes coaching them and he’s got them playing well. They’re a far different side to the one we played in the first half of the season.” Aidan Verdun nabbed the winner
after a long throw by Mathew Hodgson and good close control by Anthony Edgar. It was the first time this season Pines had recorded successive wins and the side has now gone 11 games straight without defeat to be five points adrift of second spot. Skye United shocked Provisional League 2 title contender Caulfield United Cobras with a 1-0 away win on Saturday. It was Caulfield’s second loss this season and the decisive moment came in the 65th minute when Frank Dimu’s pass sent young Daniel Attard clear. Attard’s first attempt was saved by the Caulfield custodian, but the youngster retained his composure to knock in the rebound. Skye now enjoys a 10-point relegation-zone buffer and is reaping the rewards of having most of its senior squad available and fielding the same starting line-up on a regular basis. Seaford’s away clash with Lyndale United was postponed due to the state of the pitch and has been rescheduled for Saturday 8 September at 3pm. Baxter handed cellar-dweller White Star Dandenong its second win of the Provisional League 3 season on Saturday going down 1-0 away from home. Fixtures for round 19 Saturday 25 August, 3pm: Langwarrin v Doncaster Rovers (Lawton Park), Knox City v Peninsula Strikers (Knox Regional Football Centre), Frankston Pines v Sandringham (Monterey Reserve), Keysborough v Seaford Utd (Coomoora Reserve), Lyndale Utd v Skye Utd (Lyndale Secondary College), Rowville Eagles v Baxter (Park Ridge Reserve).

Swans v Hawks, Eagles v Pies best games Round 22 previews Friday 24 August Richmond v Essendon, MCG, 7.50pm Round 22 starts off with a blockbuster at the MCG between two of the big Victorian clubs. The Tigers for the 11th straight season miss the finals. The only thing the club can take from the year is the improvement of several key players. The Tigers gave it a good crack against Fremantle in Perth, but weren’t strong enough to win. For the Bombers, their season isn’t over yet, but the way they’re playing won’t get them anywhere near the eight. The Blues disposed of them in a crucial clash by 96 points, a disappointing result for Essendon. Same story as last week, on current form the Tigers are the better side, despite what the ladder says. Richmond by 23 points. Saturday 25 August St Kilda v GWS Giants, Etihad Stadium, 1.45pm With two weeks remaining in the home and away season, there are going to be a few dead rubbers and this is one of them. On the weekend the Saints played to keep their season alive, but failed dismally in losing to Geelong by 42 points. Small forwards
Milne and Saad were pretty good, but received no help from big men Koschitzke and Wilkes who were kept goalless. The Giants put up a decent fight against Melbourne. The margin should have been higher but due to errant goalkicking the Giants stayed in the game. Toby Greene was outstanding with 38 disposals and Power with 25 in his 300th. Saints shouldn’t have any problems here. St Kilda by 57 points.
Mumford stepped up, kicking three goals each. It was a slightly different story for the Hawks; they looked pretty sloppy against the Suns. Luke Hodge and Brad Sewell were at their usual best with 35 disposals each. Last time these teams met, Sydney upset Hawthorn in Launceston by 37 points and the fact they’re playing in Sydney will favour the Swans. Sydney by 4 points.
Port Adelaide v Brisbane, AAMI Stadium, 2.10pm In the Power’s last home game for 2012, they come up against Brisbane, a side they haven’t beaten since 2009. Under caretaker coach Garry Hocking, Port has shown more aggression and enthusiasm in recent matches and this is a good chance to win. As for the Lions, according to coach Michael Voss they had their win of the season when upsetting Adelaide by 10 points. Young midfielder Jack Redden is pushing hard for his first best and fairest win; it’ll be out of him and Tom Rockliff. Overall the Lions are playing closer to their best football at the moment than the Power. Brisbane by 37 points.
West Coast v Collingwood, Patersons Stadium, 7.40pm In a cracking clash in the west, the Magpies and Eagles play for a topfour spot with only two weeks till finals. The Eagles did what they had to do against the Power. Scott Selwood was excellent with 34 disposals. There are doubts over injuries to Andrew Gaff and Adam Selwood for this week’s game. Collingwood played one of its worst games of the season and was squashed by North Melbourne. The Magpies had no forward line, with Cloke, Dawes and Tarrant all struggling. The Pies have the wood on West Coast, having beaten them in every game since 2007 and they also travel very well. Collingwood by 2 points.
Sydney v Hawthorn, SCG, 4.40pm In the match of the round, the two best teams in the competition play for top spot. The Swans recovered from a slow start to smash the Bulldogs by 82 points; Josh Kennedy was scintillating with 34 disposals. Tall players Goodes, Roberts-Thomson, Pyke and
Gold Coast v Carlton, Metricon Stadium, 7.40pm It has been 16 months since these teams have met and that clash was the Gold Coast’s inaugural football match. Sixteen months on and not a lot has changed for the Suns; in fact the Suns have won fewer games than
this time last year. For the Blues they got their revenge on the Bombers in a 96-point win. From the opening bounce Carlton monstered Essendon with Kade Simpson and Marc Murphy starring. The Blues are on the verge of entering the eight and need to win one more game than Fremantle, their percentage guaranteeing them a spot. The Blues have something to play for and will win easily. Carlton by 62 points. Sunday 26 August Geelong v Western Bulldogs, Simonds Stadium, 1.10pm For the first time since round 18, the Cats return home to Simonds Stadium, this time to play the Dogs. On the weekend the Cats crushed St Kilda’s finals chances with an impressive 42-point victory. Tom Hawkins bounced back from concussion and kicked six goals, and James Kelly was excellent, notching up 27 disposals. Top four is probably beyond the Cats but a win gives them a sniff. The Bulldogs played an excellent first quarter against Sydney before being overrun and losing by 82 points (the story of their season). Ryan Griffen was best on ground with 47 disposals and young midfielder Lin Jong played a great game. Geelong by 79 points. North Melbourne v Fremantle, Etihad Stadium, 3.15pm In a top eight clash with the seventh and eighth ranked teams, both will be looking to cement a spot in the finals.
For North Melbourne, they’re pretty much guaranteed a spot after an upset win against Collingwood. The Roos were excellent in the five-goal win, especially big men Todd Goldstein and Scott Thompson. The Dockers had one of their ugly victories, this time against the Tigers by 22 points. It wasn’t special, but they got the points and jumped into the eight. The fact they’re playing in Melbourne will be a huge advantage to the Kangaroos. North Melbourne by 14 points. Melbourne v Adelaide, MCG, 4.40pm Sunday night at the ’G will be the last time we see former Melbourne captain Brad Green in the red and blue as the forward has announced his retirement. The Demons will be looking to continue a run of good form to end a disappointing 2012. They degeated the Giants in Canberra; Jack Trengove was his team’s best with 23 disposals. The Crows failed to take advantage of their soft draw and a top two position on the ladder is at risk. Against the Lions they struggled to deal with the pace of the game and Rising Star favourite Daniel Talia went off with a thigh injury. The Crows should win this easily. Adelaide by 58 points.
