Rescuers to be cited for bravery Paramedic Brenton Willey (main picture) and policeman David Malloch (inset) may be awarded bravery medals after rescuing a woman from the icy waters of Port Phillip long nearly two weeks ago. Called to Chelsea beach by a passerby who had been unable to stop the woman entering the water, the two had no hesitation in taking the plunge into the dark to bring the woman ashore.

Mobile gangs target south Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au CRIME gangs with a disciplined culture and ability to plan and set targets on the move have hit Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. The tech savvy gangs use social media, including Facebook, and encryption apps to co-ordinate activities, allowing their members to mobilise and disperse quickly, recruit members and

plan their next hit. Easy access to stolen cars and quicker freeway travel times mean that our once sleepy hamlets are now high on the agenda of the often race-related gangs who regard “slap on the wrist” penalties as green cards to commit more crimes. Mornington Detective Sergeant Nick Vallas said recent raids on the peninsula could be linked to a crime gang from Dandenong. “We can’t say they are definitely

gang members, but they probably are,” he said. “They adopt a common theme before committing crimes, which they call missioning. This may be to break into a car and steal it, or, if the car’s locked, to break into the house and steal the car’s keys and then steal it. The stolen cars are then used to rob other cars. “It’s this willingness to go to any lengths to achieve their aim that worries us.” Car owners are making it easy for

UP TO

thieves. On Saturday night, 22 August, eight cars were broken into in Bentons and Dunns roads, Mt Martha, with thieves stealing a Subaru – later recovered in Frankston North – and loose change. Detective Sergeant Jason Hocking, of Mornington CIU, said all the cars are believed to have been unlocked. “We go on about it, but people are still making it easy for thieves.” He said the incidents are not believed to be gang related.

In Mt Martha the same night, up to four men burgled a house on The Esplanade, at 3am Sunday 23 August, frightening a couple who woke to find them rifling through bedside cupboards and draws. The men, described as African or islander in appearance, were using mobile-phones as torches, going from room to room searching for valuables. They left with jewellery valued at $20,000 when the couple raised the alarm. Continued Page 9

Every one of these dogs has its day at work Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au EVERY day dogs are heading off to work from their homes in and around Seaford and Frankston. Once on the lead, they learn new skills and how to socialise in the wider world. They’re off to shopping centres, riding escalators and sitting quietly in cafes. Some go to children’s playgrounds and join in the fun, even going down slides. But all this activity has a serious side; the dogs are being trained to help children cope with their lives. Based in Seaford, Dogs for Kids with Disabilities (DKD), has already provided 40 families with assistance and companion dogs. It can train 8-12 dogs a year and has 30 families on its waiting list. Once allocated a trained dog, the families are themselves trained over two weeks in how to make sure the dog is obedient and retains its skills. DKD founder Katie Hunter says there are two training levels for the dogs: companions and assistance. Companion dogs “are a best mate for kids”, Hunter says. “They provide unconditional love and can be building blocks for a child learning new skills”. “Just walking a dog in the street can be a circuit breaker. It’s the same for someone with disabilities, a dog can be a conversation starter.” These companion dogs are taught a few tricks and even join their young masters in the playground.

the child for a walk and keeping them safe,” Hunter says. “This can help with children who can’t be left alone and are hard to handle, which makes shopping difficult.” Once the harness is on, the dog is fully focussed on its job. “When the harness is off, they become a dog again.” Hunter’s skills began nearly a decade ago when she worked as a trainer of guide dogs for the blind. The dogs she selects for assistance

“They can go down slides and are taught to give hugs and nudges with their nose. This can help if a child has a meltdown, lessening stress and shortening the intensity by lowering anxiety.” Assistance dogs are trained to be much more aware, even to the point of dropping to the ground and providing an anchor for children who are “bolters and runners”. A special harness is used to link the dog and child. “It’s almost as if the dog is taking

and companion training come from the breeding stock of guide schools. The dogs are mainly Labradors, golden retrievers and the so-called designer dogs, crossbred poodles, which are especially good for children with allergies. Hunter attributes her 70 per cent success rate to the quality of puppies provided by the breeders. At eight weeks of age they are taken in by volunteer “puppy raisers” and do not start their vocational training

until they are 14 months. This is the beginning of their working life. Living with families at “B and B homes”, the apprentices are collected by trainers each morning and returned at night. They spend nights and weekends with their “families”. Trainers are responsible for four dogs, each of which is taken on at least two 20-30-minute public outings a day. At the moment DKD has 23 puppies in volunteer homes. With that many dogs now under her ultimate care Ms Hunter admits to not knowing individual names. “I have a list.” The breeding, intensive training and care does not come cheap, and Ms Hunter says families wanting an assistance or companion dog often need a “fundraising program” to buy a dog. Assistance dogs are $30,000$40,000 and companions $16,000. “We ask families to have a fundraising program to see if they can get $8000 towards the companion dogs and we try to find $25,000 {from available grants] for assistance dog clients,” Ms Hunter says. The volunteer DKD committee helps and advises families on fundraising activities. As if she didn’t spend enough time with dogs, Hunter at home has a standard poodle and a Dalmatian cross. Dogs for Kids with Disabilities needs families in Seaford, Frankston, Langwarrin or Chelsea to look after puppies. Details www.dkd.org.au or call 9786 2909.

Bravery awards bid for water heroes

Art to lift the spirit By Fran Henke VISUAL arts students at Chisholm Frankston are taking their work to the walls of Monash Health this month to cheer and stimulate patients, visitors and staff. Their show, featuring paintings, sculptures, drawing and printmaking by art and illustration students, will open in the Monash Health Art Space, 3.30pm, Thursday 17 September. The opportunity came about after a meeting between art student Eleni Theodoridi, who also works as a medical interpreter at Monash, and senior manager and curator at Monash Health, Kim Minett. Their mutual vision and enthusiasm for the role that art plays in the public health setting created the collaboration between the Chisholm students and Monash Health. “I believe that hospitals and other public buildings are a great art platform,” Ms Theodoridi said. “It connects and benefits people who wouldn’t necessarily go to a gallery and visual artists that wouldn't have a chance to communicate their messages to a wider spectrum of public, people from all paths in life.” Her experience of working in hospitals led to a fascination with medical images, producing prints and mixed media works on the theme of “non-medical Interpretations of medical images”. She is undertaking the advanced diploma of creative product development at Chisholm, with a wide range of experience in commu-

nity involvement, health and the arts. “This is a cause really close to my heart and I have already suggested to Monash Health the possibility of murals with the help of local artist and other Chisholm students. Ms Theodoridi has approached other students, including Karen Neal and Jill Marshall, who have donated work to dress the walls of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Unit. Local artists have begun to offer

time and talent, too, including sand sculptor Natasha Kamenskaia, mixed media artist Efrossini Chaniotis and photographer Fran Henke. The Monash Children’s Hospital will open in 2017, with what Eleni hopes, will be more opportunities for the arts in the Monash Health community. The Monash Health Art Space is at level 2, Monash Medical Centre, 246 Clayton Rd, Clayton.

A FRANKSTON MICA paramedic and a Chelsea policeman have been recommended for bravery awards after rescuing a woman in difficulties off Chelsea beach, 9pm, Thursday 27 August. The Chelsea woman was seen by a passer-by near Maury Rd wading out in rough and dangerous waters fully clothed. She was distressed after a personal issue and would not be consoled. The witness tried in vain to reach the woman as she swam away; he saw her head go under and lost sight of her, and then waded back to shore and called 000. Arriving minutes later, ambulance officer Brenton Willey and Senior Constable David Malloch used torches to sweep along the beach searching for the woman in case she had returned to shore. However, she was 100 metres north of her original position and 100 metres out to sea after having been in the freezing water for about 15 minutes. The Air Wing had been called but poor conditions meant a helicopter could not attempt a rescue. The Water Police were more than 40 minutes away and unlikely to be of any use. “There was nothing else to do but go and get her, so we went straight in,” Mr Willey said last week. “I am

a surfer and used to the water so it wasn’t too bad. “Of course it was a bit out of the ordinary but, as an ambulance officer, you get used to it. No two jobs are the same.” Mr Willey and the policeman swam out through the rough, dark waters and brought the woman back to shore – despite her protests. “It never crossed my mind that we wouldn't successfully retrieve the patient,” he said. “I felt we worked well together during the events over the next half hour.” For his efforts, Senior Constable Malloch received a kick in the face causing swelling to his eye socket. The woman was taken to Frankston hospital while. Senior Sergeant Chris Jones, of Chelsea police, is recommending bravery awards for the two men. “They did a great job of rescuing the woman in the freezing conditions and saved her life,” he said.

Millions paid out to cast-off port planners Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au SACKING staff at the Port of Hastings Development Authority has seen millions of dollars “lost” to Hastings, according to Opposition leader Matthew Guy. Speaking to journalists in Frankston last week Mr Guy said 55 jobs had gone and payouts “will cost millions”. A news release from Opposition ports spokesman David Hodgett said the state government had paid out $2.64 million to 17 staff made redundant at the planning authority. “That works out to an average redundancy payment of over $155,000 a worker,” Mr Hodgett stated in a news release. “These 17 jobs should never have been lost because a second container port is critical for Victoria’s economic future.” The downsizing of the development authority – formed by the previous government when Mr Hodgett was ports minister – came soon after Labor’s election win and its decision to lease out the Port of Melbourne for 50 years, effectively mothballing plans for a major container port at Hastings. Instead, the Labor government has earmarked Hastings as a “bulk” port for ships delivering and collecting petroleum products, natural gas and, possibly brown coal. The government is also giving Infrastructure Victoria the job of investigating whether a container port is eventually best built at Bay West, north of Geelong in Port Phillip, or Hastings. Backing for a container port at Hastings con-

tinues to come from Mornington Peninsula and Frankston councils, but is being opposed by the Shire of Bass, which borders Western Port. The three municipalities are part of the new South East Melbourne Group of Councils (SEM) lobbying the government on a range of issues, including business investment, jobs, public safety and education. Despite Bass’s opposition, a container port for Hastings is included in SEM’s regional plan, along with planning for a major airport. The other four councils in the SEM group are Kingston, Casey, Cardinia and Greater Dandenong. Both the Mornington Peninsula and Bass councils have written separately to the government, one (the peninsula) calling for the establishment of a “green” container port at Hastings and the other (Bass) opposing any expansion of the port. Frankston has promoted itself as being ideally suited to be the commercial centre for and expanded Port of Hastings. Its mayor, Cr Sandra Mayer, as the inaugural head of SEM, issued a news release stating “30 per cent of all shipping containers from the Port of Melbourne end up in south east Melbourne, so development linked to tourism and shipping are certainly areas we will be pushing hard, including the Port of Hastings expansion”. Mr Guy, when criticising the government virtually disbanding the Port of Hastings Development Authority, said the container port would have been a “boon for jobs on the Mornington Peninsula and south eastern suburbs”. “The Port of Hastings should be on the [government’s] agenda. Melbourne needs planning to begin for a second container port,” he said.

In their footsteps: Last year’s Voice of Frankston winners were Sian Crowe, adult division, and Gaile Howden, senior division.

Final choice for city’s voice THE Rotary Room at the Frankston Arts Centre will come alive this Sunday for the grand final of The Voice of Frankston 2015. Last Sunday, 25 singers performed over four age categories: junior, teen, adult and senior, at the semi-finals. In the lead up, the show’s panel of judges had gone through blind auditions to sort through more than 100 entries. Now, in the grand final, singers will battle it out for a single CD recording, video clip, make-

up and head shot photography, and an interview with Mint magazine. The 2013 adult division winner Cail Baroni will perform and then take to the judging panel alongside Ian Pav, Ariana Friend, MC Heather and Frankston mayor, Cr Sandra Mayer. The event will be filmed for Channel 31 and broadcast live on RPPFM. For details and tickets, call Fun-key music, 9786 3104, or visit funkeymusic.com.au

NEWS DESK Theft items missing WAR memorabilia is still missing despite Frankston police arresting and charging a man for his role in the 1.30am, Friday 31 July robbery at Frankston RSL. The Cranbourne man, 24, has been charged with burglary and theft while an alleged accomplice, a 25-year-old Skye man interviewed by police on 21 August, is “likely to be charged”, say Frankston detectives. The men allegedly broke in to the Cranbourne Rd premises by climbing a rear fence. A medal has been recovered, but items such as a POW’s hand-carved chess set, three sets of medals from the two world wars, a Navy uniform, WWII rifle scabbard, compasses, range finders and binoculars – said by detectives to be “worth thousands” – have yet to be recovered. Detective Acting Sergeant Jason HamiltonSmith, of Frankston CIU, said the Cranbourne man would face Frankston Magistrates’ Court in January. He said unrelated charges are pending.

New lease on life: Jesuina and her mother, Teresa, at the Berends’s home after surgery.

Helping hand gives girl new heart A LIFE-CHANGING operation has given a bright future to a Timor Leste woman – partly thanks to Seaford Carrum Downs Rotary. The club brought Jesuina da Costa Belo to Melbourne for open heart surgery, which is not available that country. Rotary Oceania Medical Aid for Children organised the trip for Jesuina and her mother, Teresa, for the operation at the Monash Medical Centre, Clayton. She was treated pro bono by cardiac surgeon Professor Andrew Cochrane. Seaford Carrum Downs Rotary Club members John and Judy Berends enjoyed their role as the women’s hosts. “Despite the language barrier everything went well and Jesuina is recuperating fast,” Mr Berends said. “Although they love Australia they are keen to go back home to Jesuina’s six sisters and her father. “Jesuina can now look forward to a normal and healthy future.”

A CARRUM Downs youth has been arrested and charged with attempted armed robbery and deception after a bungled raid at a United service station in Hastings, 2am, Friday 5 June. The 16-yearold, allegedly armed with a tyre iron, demanded cash and tried to jump the counter at the Frankston-Flinders Rd fuel outlet. He was pushed backwards by the attendant who he attempted to strike with the tyre iron before being chased out of the store. The would-be robber was driven away by an accomplice waiting in a Holden station wagon. The youth has been remanded to appear at Melbourne Children’s Court on 17 September. Detective Senior Constable Darren Paxton, of Frankston CIU, had previously arrested and charged the 16-year-old driver of the car with armed robbery, theft of a motor car and deception. The Carrum Downs youth has been bailed to appear at Frankston Children’s Court on 22 October.

Elders, police on course to cut crime Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

Big Bang theory: Frankston detectives examine the scene of the Skye early morning blast. Picture: Gary Sissons

Unexpected wake-up call EARLY Sunday morning is certainly not the time to explode a home-made pipe bomb in the local park. But that’s what residents living near Skye Valley Park, Santa Clara Mews, woke up to last week. Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the 6am detonation of the aerial exploding device made from PVC tubing and tape. Emergency services were called after witnesses reported the loud bang. An arson and explosives chemist attended. There was no damage to people or property but police said it could have been worse if the device had gone off later in the day as it was close to children’s play equipment. Detective Acting Sergeant Jason Hamilton-Smith, of Frankston CIU, said the plastic and metal device detonated with gunpowder caused a “significant explosion”. Debris was scattered over the park. Anyone with information is urged to

Frankston CIU of 9784 5555 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au

Stalking charge A FRANKSTON South man, 32, has been remanded after being charged with attempted armed robbery and stalking after an incident in Kars St, Frankston, 9am, 16 July. The man allegedly held a knife to the throat of a 50-year-old woman and demanded her mobile phone as she walked her dog. The woman fought off the man, who ran off along Denbigh St when a passer-by stopped. Detective Senior Constable Darren Paxton, of Frankston CIU, said the stalking charge related to an earlier incident when the man allegedly followed a 27-year-old woman pushing a pram up Kars St from High St. The man had tried to strike up a conversation with the woman, walking alongside her to Nolan St.

IT’S BEEN a year, and Frankston’s Maori Elders say their street patrols are lessening crimes by young Pacific islanders. Elders’ operations manager Eva Halford said efforts by the police and Elders over the past 12 months to break down cultural barriers between “disengaged” youth – often coming to Frankston by train – had largely been effective. “When we started, the crime rates had risen 94 per cent but, since the patrols, they are down 31 per cent,” she said. “We keep in constant touch with Victoria Police and, with their help, have been able to scale down our weekend patrols over winter.” However, police say problems continue, with islanders being “over represented” in crime. A constant theme cited for youth and gang problems is the islanders’ loss of identity and cultural confusion in a country where their old ways and customs are no longer valid. Many young people are out of work or under-employed. The problems are exacerbated by hard-working parents with large families who are not around enough to provide guidance or act as suitable role models. Ms Halford said many of those targeted by the six volunteer Elders at “hotspots” such as Frankston station, CBD, shopping malls and the beach, were intoxicated or on drugs.

a good response from the kids and the Elders help police interact with them more easily.” She said an influx of other races: Samoans, Cook Islanders, Polynesians and Sudanese, would “at some stage make Frankston more like Dandenong”. Frankston Embona Detective Sergeant Marty O’Brien said increased crime rates by islanders aged 13-24 were “a huge problem” for police. “Ninety per cent of our work relates to islanders. They are over-represented,” he said. “We’ve tried everything [to work constructively with the youths] but nothing works; some come from good families but they don’t care. Many have no means of support other than their gang.” He said crime groups such as the KKK, Y2K and Apex had a “blatant disregard for the law”. “We have 15 and 17-year-olds committing armed robberies and burglaries. They have no family support and their ages mean they walk straight from court.” He said one youth was bailed by Frankston Magistrates’ Court after committing 14 armed robberies. “Why a court would even entertain the idea of bail I don’t know,” he said. “We need to get harder because it’s getting worse. Upon conviction they should be sent straight out of the country. It’s a privilege to reside here.” Details: vicmaoriwardens@gmail. com or visit Victoria Maori Wardens on Facebook.

“At first they would look at us as if to say, ‘Who do you think you are?’ she said. “We’d start to talk and get into conversations and gradually encourage them not to hang around the CBD or they would get locked up. “At first we had a lot of engagement, especially with kids from Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings. A lot of them come from Dandenong. “The Frankston patrols have been really good. But now many of those we used to see are no longer turning up. They may be incarcerated, working, or have moved on,” she said. Ms Halford said the Elders visited Frankston Children’s Court fortnightly to assist young offenders, and had extended their patrols to cover Hastings and Rosebud where Maoris and islanders were establishing themselves. Maori Elders’ secretary Helen smith, whose husband James launched the initiative at Werribee based on an established New Zealand model, said the volunteers worked in groups of three and always with a male present. “As far as we can tell we are making a difference,” she said. “The same kids are not hanging around the old areas anymore and we are gradually moving our focus to Hastings and Rosebud. “We try to get out as much as we can on our own, without police involvement, after letting them know where we will be, because we previously found the kids were running away from us if they saw the police with us.” Leading Senior Constable Andrea Kardos, of the Frankston police proactive unit, said police patrols with the Elders had been effective. “We’ve had

Special police unit to tackle in-touch crime gangs Continued from Page 1 A Hampton Park man, 24, believed to be the get-away driver, was arrested by Mornington police and, although not being charged with any offence on the night, may be charged at a later date. Frankston Embona Detective Sergeant Marty O’Brien said gangs with names such as Apex, Y2K and YKK were making life “very busy” for detectives. He said racially linked members coming to Frankston from Dandenong and Narre Warren – some aged as young as 13 – were a “huge problem”. “Crimes by these groups have risen 10-fold over the past few years,” he said. “And 90 per cent of it relates to

the Polynesians. They get straight off the plane and are straight into it. We know who they are but we can’t do much about them.” Police are frustrated by lights sentences handed down by the courts. “One guy charged with 14 counts of armed robbery was granted bail,” Detective Sergeant O’Brien said. “Why a court would even entertain the idea of bail I don’t know.” A Melbourne police taskforce formed to tackle the threat from gangs has charged more than 70 young men over a six-month crime spree, including crimes in Frankston and on the peninsula.

The youths, aged 14-24, were charged with more than 400 serious offences ranging from armed robbery to commercial burglary, car theft, driving offences and illegal gun possession. The six-month police investigation, established to target mid-level organised crime, revealed that two syndicates based in Melbourne’s northern suburbs had targeted department stores and tobacconists all the way down to Frankston. Three violent thieves, who police later identified as gang members, raided two 24-hour service stations, at Dromana and Rosebud, on 29 July. The trio, with one member aged 15, stormed counters and terrorised staff

ceptions, petrol drive offs and armed robberies across the southern suburbs in the past few weeks. “They knew each other and were acting together; there was definitely a level of planning and organisation,” Frankston Embona Detective Sergeant Alistair Hanson said. The same gang is believed responsible for smashing up to 25 car windscreens and rear and side windows in Cheltenham. Two vandals in two cars used golf clubs and a hammer to smash the windows of cars parked in streets off Centre Dandenong Rd, causing $25,000 damage.

A tradition of camping out at Mt Eliza THERE have been countless happy campers at Mt Eliza over the past 90 years. Apart from when being used to recuperate US soldiers wounded in the Pacific campaign during World War II, the camp has provided a place to get away from it all for families and groups since 1925. The Sunnyside Rd camp site was given to the YMCA by Thomas and Alice Baker. Camp Manyung’s 90th anniversary last month and the unveiling of a historic interpretive display of the camp’s history from 1925 to the present brought back family memories for Jenny Little (nee Stevens), a camper from the 1950s and 1960s. Having spent weeks there as a youngster with her family each summer she remembers “all the women chatting, shelling the peas and peeling spuds, no one felt this was an imposition and we all enjoyed the roast dinner of an evening”. “We had so much fun in those years, exploring, climbing trees, swimming at the beach and spearing fish, catching foxes, singing around the camp fire, our childhood was free and happy at camp,” Ms Little said. Camp director during 1960s and 1970s Cliff Burns recalled his time leading camps as “being a chance for families to come together during summer holidays to enjoy each other’s company, participate in outdoor physical activity and live together as a community with much fun and laughter, while upholding the YMCA philosophy of strengthening individuals in body, mind and spirit”.

Fond memories: YMCA camper of the 1950s and 1960s Jenny Little (nee Stevens), above, in a tree and right, with current Camp Manyung manager, Maree Feutrill.

Holiday test: Camp Manyung cricket game in 1951.

Several years after being given the land the YMCA hired architects Eric Nichols and Walter Burley Griffin to design the camp layout and bunk houses. Throughout the Depression years of the 1930s, it relied on volunteers to construct the camp. After the war years the YMCA established family camping programs in the 1950s to strengthen families and rebuild community

spirit. In 1981 Camp Manyung was sold to the state government and was managed under the Department of Youth, Sport and Recreation. In 1997 the government contracted the management of the camp to YMCA Victoria and a long term partnership was established with Sport and Recreation Victoria, providing outdoor camping experiences for 15,000 Victorians each year as part of

school camps, family camps and community camping programs. These days accommodation for up to 170 is provided in cottages or Regatta House. Wi fi is available and there is heating and air conditioning as well as plenty of outdoor activity and meeting areas.

MP News Group journalist David Harrison is in Thailand supporting his mate Alan Morison and his wife Chutima Sidasathian, who were charged in late 2013 with criminal defamation and computer crime over a story they published on their online website Phuketwan about abuses against Rohingya migrants in Thailand. The charges centred on a paragraph in Phuketwan on 17 July 2013 citing an investigative report by Reuters alleging that some navy officials were involved with trafficking Rohingya Muslims fleeing Myanmar (Burma). The trial generated widespread condemnation from human rights groups and the United Nations. Morison and Sidasathian faced up to seven years in jail but last week were found not guilty of all charges. The Thai navy has until the end of September to appeal. Harrison has been supporting the two journalists by organising fundraisers, a petition and a rally in Melbourne. He attended the court case in Phuket in July and returned for last week’s judgment. This article has been posted on Phuketwan and has generated worldwide interest.

Why good journalism matters By David Harrison I BEGAN my career in journalism about the same time as Alan Morison, half a century ago at the afternoon newspaper, The Herald, in Melbourne, Australia. It sold more than half a million copies a day. It was a force in the city. It was listened to by politicians, by business people, by judges and lawyers, and was loved and respected by its readers. Its journalists did not set out consciously each day to seek that approbation of its readers, who comprised about one in five of Melbourne’s population. They simply, like blind Justice, did their job – to discover and bring to the public the news of the day, whatever that news happened to be. Nor did we concern ourselves much with what public reaction might be to what we wrote. We knew we had the support of our journalistic seniors and

the public. We were part of what was then called the Fourth Estate, a term born in 18th century Britain to describe the huge influence of newspapers in the life of the nation. Originally the press – the Fourth Estate – ranked with the other three estates. These were the British parliamentary estates known as the Lords spiritual, the Lords temporal and the members of the House of Commons. That is, the press and its journalists ranked alongside the unelected members of the British House of Lords, both churchmen and the nobility, and the elected members of the Commons. The press had – and wielded – the power to bring down governments, to change government policy, and to rein in government power. Generally it used this power responsibly. This was the environment in which young journalists learned their trade.

Alan has continued to do this throughout his working life, in the finest traditions of the press. He now publishes his news in the new medium of the world wide web. He is part of the new fabric of news dissemination. He and his very impressive colleague Chutima Sidasathian have published news on their Phuketwan website that is certainly not to the taste of everyone who reads it. News has been defined as ‘’something that someone, somewhere, does not want published. All the rest is advertising”. Alan and Chutima do not deal in advertising or seek to please their readers. They simply seek out the truth and disseminate it. The consequences in the case of their reporting of people smuggling in Thailand have been very serious indeed. Both face the possibility of jail. For what? Has anyone challenged

the truth of their reporting? No. They have been faithful to the best centuriesold traditions of their calling. They are in the legal position they face because their facts have annoyed people in power in Thailand. These facts meet the classic definition – they were something that some people did not want printed. They were embarrassing, they were seen to diminish the standing of powerful people in a powerful social institution, the Royal Thai Navy, which was not mentioned in the report against which they took offence. The facts were not challenged – Alan and Chutima’s resolve to publish them, and therefore to shine a spotlight on a great and deeply troubling social issue, was under challenge. They were to be crushed as an example to others for their bold impertinence. The original publisher of the words that drew the navy’s response were not sued. They were too big and powerful.

Making news: Alan Morison, right, and Chutima Sidasathian, centre, face the media during their trial in Thailand. They were cleared of criminal defamation charges last week. Picture supplied

Shame on Reuters for abandoning Phuketwan to its fate. In the long term such facts must – must – be published. The public has a right to know. All around the world, journalists daily pay for this demand on them with their freedom, sometimes their lives. Thailand needs more journalists, and more media proprietors, who will take the risk of a backlash from powerful people and institutions in what they present to the community, whatever the risk and consequence. It is vital to strong democracies for this to be done. It is vital for Thailand’s future that its powerful institutions respect the Fourth Estate and its practitioners for doing their job. The nation will never develop into a strong democracy without letting the facts – diligently gathered and responsibly reported – from being freely disseminated. It is the test every governing regime faces, and must pass.

Expert help for children’s foot and leg concerns There are some common observations and issues related to children’s feet and legs that parents are often concerned about. We asked Musculoskeletal Podiatrist, Dr. David Kavanagh from Foot & Leg Pain Clinics, to clarify some of these.

Sore Feet or Legs? Call

Flat Feet: Contrary to popular belief the appearance of flat feet in children, is NOT usually cause for concern. However, if there is associated pain, balance issues or excessive rolling inward of the ankles, parents should seek professional assistance. Pigeon Toe & Out Toe: The appearance of in-toeing (‘pigeon toed’) or out-toeing (‘duck feet’), can affect the capacity of a child to run, jump and balance well. These issues may be assisted during a child’s developmental years and should be checked. Growing Pains: Growing pains are very common and are often due to overstrain of the growth plates of growing bones. The exact nature of the pain should be determined as soon as possible, so should definitely be checked.

Any shin pain should be checked. “If your child regularly complains of foot or leg pain or has balance or mobility issues you should get it checked by an experienced musculoskeletal podiatrist experienced.

■ PODIATRY

Foot Street Podiatry offers pain relief using Prolotherapy PROLOTHERAPY is an alternative treatment for chronic pain, categorized in the medical field as Regenerative Medicine. This treatment is not new, it has been practiced since the 1950’s. This specialty medicine promotes healing through regeneration of tissue. So if you have residual pain in the knees, ankles, toes or anywhere in the lower leg, we at Foot Street Podiatry, the foot pain relief clinic can offer you help. We have been treating patients with chronic pain using regenerative “prolo”, a gentle non-surgical treatment for the past four years, helping people from all walks of life, from tradies, ballet dancers, soccer players, runners, the elderly, and the not so elderly who attend with a variety of connective soft tissue complaints. How does it work? Prolotherapy works by stimulating the same process that the body would use to heal any injury: “inflammation”. It involves the injection of a mild irritant solution (dextrose and local anaesthetic). The solution is injected into the affected connective tissue which leads to local inflammation and triggering of the body’s healing cascade. New collagen is formed and reconstruction of ligament and tendons take place. As collagen matures it shrinks and over time with each subsequent treatment, the new connective tissue continues to grow, thicken and strengthen giving stability to joints thereby relieving the pain associated with joint instability. Dr. Carol A. Thomson, Chief Podiatrist at Foot Street Podiatry, received her initial training in Prolotherapy from Dr. Margaret Taylor of South Australia, Dr. Thomson was so impressed with the treatment outcomes she enrolled in a Master Class at the Hackett-Hemwall Foundation, held every October at the University of Wisconsin, USA. Dr Thomson undertook supervised extensive training in prolotherapy of the whole body. This advanced course involved many long hours of hands-on body and anatomical marking prior to supervised injecting. The completion of this course, along with many hours of treating patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain at her clinics on the Peninsula, qualifies her as a highly experienced practitioner. Dr. Thomson now teaches Prolotherapy formally to other Podiatrists from all over Victoria.

Your specialists Dr. Karina Lilja (left) and Dr. Carol Thomson

Foot Street Podiatry, the Foot Pain Relief clinic is the Peninsula’s leading clinic to offer this regenerative treatment. Prolotherapy is not suitable for everyone, but has the potential to substantially alleviate most painful conditions. Almost any type of connective tissue injury, tendinitis or arthritic pain can be improved with its use. The good thing is there are rarely any contraindications, adverse effects or complications. Some conditions that Prolotherapy may benefit: arthritis,

tendonitis, planta fasciitis, sporting injuries, post-surgical pain, knee problems, osteoarthritis of the knee, and ankle instability (sprains/strains). Still not convinced but interested? During the month of September 2015 you can book in for a FREE 15 minute preliminary assessment with Podiatrist Dr. Thomson in order to have your questions answered and decide if Prolotherapy is a good option for you to explore.

pensioners, private clients & veterans

HI my name is Robin Tu, and I am an experienced Audiologist, also known as a hearing specialist. After I graduated from the University of Melbourne, I have been looking after the ears and hearing of the Mornington Peninsula community for the past seven years. I first recognised the importance of hearing well when I was young. My mother suffered from severe hearing issues, and this impacted on her ability to communicate with her family and friends on a daily basis. Her job prospects and her ability to even enjoy her favourite TV shows were also restricted. This made me realise the detrimental effects of hearing loss on an individual’s communication, lifestyle and overall quality of life. As a result, this provided me the passion to help people with poorer hearing. With the assistance of hearing devices, I have seen many of my clients begin to enjoy the smaller things in life again such as: enjoying a family dinner during Christmas and birthdays, catching up with friends over coffee, and not having to ask to repeat a question when talking with others. Having specialised in adult rehabilitation, I aspired to open my own hearing company to provide the best service for all my clients.

the better to enjoy the resort-class courtyard with a salt chlorinated, solar heated in-ground pool and undercover entertaining area. Externally, the block measures about 830 square metres with two 2000 litre water tanks keeping the gardens nice and lush, and two double garages for all the vehicles and summer toys.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Body of a woman found on beach Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE Peninsula Motor Garage Pty. Ltd., has engaged an additional driver for the Frankston Garage and has also installed an additional modern Buick car at the Mornington Garage. *** THE next consignment of goods ready to be sent to Central Depot, Federal Government House from the local branch is now on view at Ritchie’s Stores, corner Bay and Playne street. *** WE are pleased to state that Private Daniel Downs, who enlisted from Frankston, and contracted meningitis while at the Seymour camp, and was conveyed to the Alfred Hospital, is now improving. *** WE hear that Zephuron, the Grand National Steeplechase Winner, is to be at once transferred to Frankston and spelled locally for a month or so, as the chestnut’s trainer, Mr M. J. Farrell has enlisted and is already in camp. *** A fatal case of meningitis occurred at Seaford on Monday last, Mr Robert Campbell being the victim. He was conveyed to the Alfred Hospital, where he succumbed to the attack on the following day. *** ATTENTION is drawn to a meeting of Councillors of the Centre Riding, to be held in the Shire Hall, Somerville, at 8 p.m. this evening (Saturday), to assist and give any information required in regard to filling in the War Census

papers.

*** WE regret to have to chronicle the death of Mr A. Findlay, late station master, at Frankston, which took place at Bacchus Marsh, on Saturday last. The deceased gentleman was esteemed by all Frankston citizens with whom he came in contact. *** THOSE who like a comfortable shave and a good hair cut will be pleased to hear that Mr C. W. Wood has established himself in business in premises opposite Brody and Mason’s, Bay Street, Frankston. He has had the premises nicely fitted up with every convenience, and has a good stock of tobacco and cigars of the best brands. *** ATTENTION is again directed to T. R. B Morton and Son’s clearing sale at Ingle Park, Bittern, on Tuesday next. This sale is one of the most important yet held in the district, everything being of first class quality and selected under Mr Ingham’s own supervision from the best of Melbourne ware houses. A full list of the articles appear in our advertising columns. *** THE news that Captain Sherlock had sustained serious injury by being thrown from a horse which he was schooling over jumps at the Seymour Camp on Tuesday last, was received with universal regret in Frankston. He was conveyed to the Base Hospital, Melbourne the same day in an unconscious state, and from the meagre particulars to hand we learn that he is still

unconscious, though slightly easier. *** THE body of a woman was washed up on the beach at high tide at “Moondah,” between Frankston and Mornington, on Thursday morning. The woman was about 55 to 60 years of age, 5 feet 2 inches high, slight, with grey hair and grey eyes. She was wearing a heavy brown coat and black dress with white stripes, and new shoes. The body was taken to the Mornington police station, where it awaits identification. Appearances indicated that the body had been only a few hours in the water. *** A grand Patriotic Dance, in aid of Australia’s Sick and Wounded Soldiers will be held in the Nor Mess Hall, on the works at Finders Naval Base, on Friday, 24th inst. The concert programme will be a good one,and will be farther enhanced by two artists from Melbourne, and a pianist from Allan’s music warehouse. The hall is a very capacious one, having 25,000 feet dancing space, will be specially fitted up for the convenience of the dancers, and as there will be a full moon on the occasion there will doubtless be a record attendance. *** IT will be seen from an advertisement in another column that a fourth presentation will be made on Monday, Sept 20th to volunteers to the front, drawn from Frankston and the immediate district. It will be remembered that the pre-

sentation was originally arranged for Aug 23rd but the function had to be postponed owing to the outbreak of cerebro-spinal-meningitis, the moving of the reinforcements and the inability of the recruits to obtain leave. The Hon. Sec (Dr Plowman) desires that friends of any recently enrolled recruits will send to him the names of the latter together with their exact camp addresses. If this is done his work will be greatly facilitated. *** WE are in receipt of the “Patriot”, a leading Brisbane paper, and from it we take the following cutting, which appears under a splendid portrait of Mr Frank Jolly, of Frankston:— “Skater versus Pedestrian” — Recently Mark Gilbert, the skater, challenged Frank Jolly, the sprinter, to a race over four laps of 135 yards each— Jolly getting a start of one lap or in other words 135 yards in 540 yards. The event took place on August 21st, at the Brisbane Roller Rink, when there was a large gathering to witness the race, including many of the fair sex; and when Jolly won easily by nearly a lap it was seen that the result was a popular one. The winner is local representative of the Vacuum Oil Company Ltd., and a well known ex- Victorian sprinter; while Gilbert hails from Manchester, England, and has a big Brisbane reputation as a skater. *** THE Peninsula Football Association held its final meeting for the season at Somerville, on Wednesday eve-

BURDETT’S

ning last, when delegates representing Mornington, Langwarrin, Naval Base, Somerville, Frankston, and Tyabb were present. Dromana and Hastings were unrepresented. A letter was received from Major Lloyd, enclosing donation of £1, which was received with thanks. The balance sheet was then read which showed receipts £155 10s 1d; expenditure, £138 18s 9d; credit balance, £16 11s 4d ; and after paying the two trophies of £5, and £2 10s left a balance of £8 13s 4d in the bank. Mr Jones moved that the fine of £2 2s be refunded to the Naval Base Club, on the grounds that the club contracting the fine was defunct, seconded by Mr Barnes. After the matter had been fully discussed the motion was lost on the show of hands. After the routine business had been finished, the President said he had much pleasure in declaring Mornington club premiers for 1915, and Langwarrin runners up. The Mornington club had been in the association since its formation, and this was the first time they had won, and they were proud of their victory. Mr Wesley responded on behalf of the Mornington Club, and Guard Fletcher also responded on behalf of the Guards. Votes of thanks were passed to the President and Secretary, to which both gentlemen responded, and the meeting terminated. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 11 September, 1915

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Tips for surviving a public transport strike By Stuart McCullough ‘PLAN your journey’. This advice flashed at me as I set off for work on Friday. In big urgent letters, the sign warned of the impending train strike while also offering sage counsel as how to best respond to the imminent crisis. But of course! Plainly, my preferred approach of not planning my journey would no longer suffice. Stepping outside my front door and letting anarchy ensue simple does not cut the mustard in these strike-plagued times. A different approach is called for. Until now, it has never occurred to me to plan my journey. Usually, I just get my things and set off, hoping for the best and generally arriving at my preferred destination several weeks after I was first expected. Sure, it’s inefficient but I believed Robert Frost when he said that taking the road less travelled had made all the difference even if it also made him chronically late. Until now, getting from A to B has been something of a magical mystery tour that has taken in C, D, E and various other parts of the alphabet in between. To be honest, I was expecting that my trip to work would be a car park that rolled forward a metre or two from time to time and one in which my usual travel experience was painfully extended. It wasn’t like that at all. In fact, there was less traffic than normal. It could only mean that a large number of fellow commuters had either decided to work from home or taken the day off. They had, it seems, planned their journey by abandoning it altogether. There have, of course, been public transport strikes throughout history. People often forget that the only

reason it took Odysseus ten years to return home to Ithaca after the fall of Troy was because of a snap tram strike. Clearly, Odysseus did not plan his journey. When Johnny Cash sang, I Walk the Line, it was something only made possible because there were no trains running. Not that this is much comfort when the Frankston to Flinders Street service vanishes for hours on end. Having been told to plan my journey, there was little else for me to do other than to take this advice to heart. I poured over maps, I stared at the heavens in a desultory attempt to predict the weather and I wet my finger before

holding it aloft to see if I could tell which direction these ill-winds were blowing. But no matter how much effort I put into these activities, there was simply no getting around the fact that I was ‘here’ and I needed to get ‘there’. Frankly, no amount of planning could change that stark fact. My first attempt left much to be desired. The initial draft of my plan saw me get from the house to Caulfield Station by riding on a donkey. There I would use an invisible sword to ward off evil spirits before training a dragon that I had doted on since infancy until it was willing to wear a saddle and fly me the rest of the way to the office.

As planned journeys go, mine was exquisite. But if it had a fault at all, it was (perhaps) slightly impractical and not as time efficient as it could have been. In terms of being late to work, telling your boss that it took you longer to train your dragon than you had first anticipated is rarely going to be viewed as an acceptable excuse. Perhaps I’ve got it all wrong. Maybe I’m being far too linear about it all. When the sign told me to ‘plan’ my journey, it could well be that this was not literally a direction to stare at a map for hours on end as though I was planning to deposit troops on the beaches of Normandy but a more philosophical

suggestion. ‘Plan your journey’, much like ‘Count your blessings one by one’ is not something to be taken literally – it’d take you all afternoon. In fact, perhaps ‘plan your journey’ is not so much a piece of advice as it is a musical suggestion. Without a moment to lose, I quickly downloaded Don’t Stop Believin’ by American rock group Journey. I would plan my journey by creating a playlist containing the only song by the band Journey that I know. To be quite honest, I feel conflicted. While according to the internet, Don’t Stop Believin’ is an anthem that contains one of the greatest opening keyboard riffs of all time, it’s not really to my taste. The fact that it’s just over four minutes long means that I’ll need to listen to it roughly forty seven times on my way in to work. This, I feel, is unlikely to do much for my mood. Let’s be honest: public transport strikes suck. On Friday at a rally of striking workers, one of the union officials was quoted as saying that this would be a long campaign as it was ‘a marathon, not a sprint’. To be fair, it’s only a marathon because the train from the city to Frankston isn’t operating. It seems we’re in it for the long haul and that there will be a lot more journeys to plan in the weeks ahead. If we are heading back to the 1970s, perhaps we can do so in a more complete sense. Along with public transport strikes, maybe we can look forward to other things that made the seventies great, like flared trousers, power blackouts and stagflation. Here’s hoping. Until then, don’t stop believin’. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

MUNSTER TERRACE RACK UP THIRTY YEARS OF ENTERTAINING Peninsula based rock band Munster Terrace have been performing around the traps for 30 years now, and they will be celebrating this milestone with a special show at the Rye RSL on Saturday the 12th of September. The band first formed in 1985, and their debut gig was on the 7th of May of that year (supporting The Saints on their return to Australia after some years based in the U.K). It took a year or so for the early version of “Munster” to find its’ feet, but by late 1986 the line-up was stable, and the band was a full-time proposition. During the late 80s and early 90s Munster Terrace were regulars at venues all over the peninsula, with long-term residencies at locations such as The Continental Hotel – Sorrento, The Rye Hotel, The Rosebud Hotel, The Flinders Hotel, both The Westernport and Kings Creek Hotels in Hastings, The Cruz Club in Mornington, The Somerville Hotel, The Baxter Tavern, The Vines (Daveys) in Frankston, and Kelly’s Hotel in Cranbourne (to name but a few). Although classic rock covers were featured in the live repertoire, the band’s focus during this time was on original material, and two of the band’s first three singles received “mainstream” attention. The first Single - Rollin’ made the MMM (EON F.M) playlist, and the third - Real Human Being received national exposure via MTV. The Late 90s and early 00s saw the band move more towards corporate functions, though residencies continued at some of the previously mentioned venues, as well as at places like the Coolstores in Mooroduc.

Frankston Times 7 September 2015

A second Album “The Transition” was released during this time, as well as Munster originals being featured on two compilation albums. Munster Terrace haven’t officially released any new original material since 2003’s “Storybook” Album, but they continue to write/compose, and continue to perform high energy showcases of classic rock covers. Venues at which the band has performed regularly in more recent years include: The Retronome, Rye – (which has now become Baha), Beaches in Mornington, and (of course) their current “home base” - The Rye RSL. All up, the band has clocked up 1200 gigs since its debut, and (needless to say) these figures would indicate that a huge number of peninsula dwellers/visitors have been entertained by Munster Terrace over the years. To survive for 30 years, and to remain a popular live act for all that time is surely a fair effort by anyone’s standards, and the band feels it’s a milestone worth celebrating. So – “The Munsters” are inviting everyone to come along and celebrate with them in a night of live classic rock music, memories, and with a few special surprises thrown in... These include a concert–style lighting spectacular supplied by South Coast Mobile Discos, and also appearances by some special guest artists that have played a role in Munster’s journey. There is no cover charge, and no booking requirements if you intend to turn up for the show only, but if you’d like to secure a table for a pre-show meal; reservations can be made via 59852595.

Buds are burning hot NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt ROSEBUD is now raging hot favourite to win the Nepean Division premiership after beating Somerville for the third time this season. The Buds led for all but two minutes of the second quarter of Saturday’s second semi final at Rye’s RJ Rowley Reserve, eventually winning 10.17 (77) to 9.7 (61). While the Buds advanced straight to the grand final, Somerville will play Sorrento in this Saturday’s preliminary final at Tyabb. Rosebud was always in control of the match against Somerville and never looked as though they were going to lose it. Coming off a bye and two 100 plus point wins against Hastings and Tyabb in their last two matches had zero impact on the Buds, who won the game with bigger, stronger bodies and a greater desire for the contest. The likes of Rohan Forrest, Nick Boswell, Greg Bentley, Jason Bristow, Brad McDonald and Rhys Bancroft were just too strong and powerful for their Somerville opponents. The Eagles love to get on the outside and run and carry the footy, however at no stage were they given that opportunity on Saturday. Rosebud coach Nick Jewell wanted a tough, inside game of footy and that’s exactly what he got. Somerville has averaged 16 goals a match this season but on three occasions in 2015, they have not been able to boot more than nine against Rosebud. Rosebud’s defence was superb. Keegan Downie, who is a natural forward and started in attack, found himself in defence minding Luke Rowe. Rowe had zero impact on the match, such was the great job that Downie did. Seb Kremich smashed Billy Rolfe, Matt Baker dominated Tommy Shaw and the likes of Daniel Wilson, Nick Boswell, Jack Jarman and Kurtis Corrin ran the ball out of the Rosebud defensive zone with ease and precision. Nick Boswell was brilliant. He gained more meterage than any other player on the ground, waltzing around opponents and steaming out of defence as though the Eagles’ forwards were witches hats. Every time Tom Baker went near the footy, he had two or three opponents, which allowed Lachy Armstrong to get on his bike and be the ‘go to’ at high half forward. He worked tirelessly. In the ruck, Ben Dwyer was clearly the best big man on the ground. He dominated against both Justin Farrelly and Scott Simpson. His work around the ground was also outstanding. The best player on the park was Forrest. He finished with more than 25 touches and three goals. His work at stoppages was simply awesome. He was unstoppable. The Somerville playmakers were all well beaten. Tim McGennis had just 19 possessions, many of which were ineffective. Rowan Hogenbirk had 17 and was more dangerous in attack than he was on the ball. There is no doubt that he is still struggling with the thigh injury and has no power to break away from stoppages. Josh Collie was quiet with 13 touches and Justin Allsop had nine. Adrian Speedy and Ben Sedgewick were clearly the best players for Somerville, while Josh Westerman was also superb, either across half back or through the middle of the ground. The Eagles just didn’t have the ability to work their way out of the tough situation. Players got frustrated with the lack of space and constant pressure. Some were simply unable to find another gear. The reality is that finals footy is completely different. When Sorrento turned up the heat in the last quarter in Somerville’s first final, they wiltered under the pressure. Luckily, the Eagles were able to sneak home. On Saturday against Rosebud, the Eagles couldn’t handle the pressure again. This doesn’t come down to ability, it comes down to mental toughness. Somerville has a very short amount of time to develop a tougher mindset to be able to cope with the pressure. Sorrento will get another crack at Somerville in this Saturday’s preliminary final after tipping Red Hill out of the finals on Sunday. The Sharks proved yet again that they can never be underestimated, jumping the Hillmen early and going on to record a comfortable 18.8 (116) to 9.16 (70) victory. The Sharks were never troubled by the Hillmen, who went into the game as favourites. Red Hill had the aid of the breeze in the final quarter but Sorrento pushed hard against the breeze and recorded a solid victory. Somerville has beaten Sorrento on three occasions this season, however, the Sharks will go into Saturday’s prelim chock-full of confidence.

Constant pressure: Somerville had no answer for Rosebud’s pressure game, losing by 16 points. Picture: Andrew Hurst Frankston Times 7 September 2015

FRANKSTON TIMES scoreboard

The steamrolling Stonecats PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt THE Frankston YCW freight train continued to steamroll anything in its path on Saturday at Frankston Park, belting Mornington by 89 points in the Peninsula Division qualifying final. After resting up to eight players last week in the final home and away game of the season, the Stonecats came out firing from the first bounce on Saturday and eventually humiliated the team that almost snatched a premiership from them at the same venue last year. I have been saying it for months and have been accused of being disrespectful to the other teams in the competition, however I reiterate again, this is the most powerful side that I have seen on the peninsula in more than a decade. It’s going to take a special performance from a very good footy team to prevent YCW from tasting the ultimate success. The Stonecats do not have a weak link. They have bigger, stronger bodies than any other team, they have a wonderful blend of experience and young, raw, talent and they have outside midfielders who are well over 6.3’. Frankston YCW booted 10 goals in the opening half and 13 in the second. More impressively though was the fact that they restricted the opposition to just nine goals for the match. The 23.13 (151) to 9.8 (62) final

score was nothing more than embarrassing for Mornington. The Dogs are supposed to be among the top three teams in the competition. They certainly didn’t play like they were. Mornington kicked the first goal of the match and led but the moment of excitement was short lived for Doggies’ supporters. Mornington was that disappointed in the efforts of their team that they didn’t even register their goal kickers or best players after the game. From a club perspective, that was a poor reflection of the leadership of the club. The Frankston YCW team manager Kevin Mulvogue on the other hand got cramps in his fingers given the even spread of performances from his team. Anthony Bruhn is at home at Frankston Park and he booted seven goals for the winners on Saturday, while David Bodley and Lew Roberts booted three each. A further seven players contributed on the scoreboard. Craig Nankervis is one of the most unheralded players in the competition, however, rarely does he put in a bad game and he always gives his coach Scott Mathers everything he has in the tank. Jessie Coghlan and Ryan Santon were dominant and Ash Eames succeeded in his efforts to make a point that he believed he was the best big man in the competition. The Stonecats will go into this Saturday’s preliminary final against Mt Eliza full of confidence after belting

the Redlegs the last time they played. Edithvale-Aspendale led all day in the elimination final to knock Pines out of the 2015 season. The Eagles went into the game without key players in Aaron Pawel in the ruck and Matt Kremmer up forward. However, despite the structural effects, Mick Meehan booted four goals and Jarrod Garth three for the Eagles while Todd Woodbridge dominated on the wing. Woodbridge had three opponents for the afternoon and was given enormous body pressure from the persistent Luke Holdcroft, however, withstood the attention and racked-up the possessions. Brett O’Hanlon helped Edithvale set up the victory in the third quarter after leading by just four points at three quarter time. With the aid of the breeze, the Eagles booted 4.9 to 3.1 in the third quarter to set-up a 24 point lead. Pines had 19 inside 50m entries in the last quarter and got within 13 points, however Darcy Warke booted his third goal on the siren to hand the Eagles a 14.12 (96) to 10.17 (77) victory. Guy Hendry booted five goals for the Pythons, while Aaron Edwards worked tirelessly at both ends of the ground. Skipper Beau Hendry was also very good for the red and green in the back half. The Eagles will play Mornington in the First Semi Final next week.

Doggies muzzled: Mornington faced a 89 belting by Frankston YCW. They will now face Edithvale-Aspendale next week. Picture: Gary Bradshaw

P. THOMPSON TYABB

By Toe Punt THE Peninsula and Nepean Teams of the Year will be announced at MPNFL presentation dinners over the next couple of weeks. Coaches were asked to provide ‘their’ team of the year, based on the matches they had seen in season 2015. Media commentators Brent Clinnick and yours truly, Toe Punt, also put together a team based on the enormous amount of footy we have seen this season. In Peninsula, there were a total of 66 players nominated in the squad. In Nepean, there were 60 players nominated. It was then my responsibility to put the teams together. This was done based on the number of ‘votes’ that players received from coaches. Players with the most number of votes automatically made the team. Where there were players with an equal number of votes, I looked at whether their own coach nominated them. This was used mainly for the interchange players, as the large majority of the starting 18 in both teams picked themselves, based on the number of votes they received. As always, the selected team is sure to raise plenty of discussion.
