Unity against sky rail Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council has joined Kingston Council in a united front against any possibility of sky rail along the Frankston line after unanimously backing rail under road as Frankston Council’s official position on level crossing removals.

Frankston councillors last month deferred a decision on opposing el-

evated rail last month but their decision this month to formally oppose elevated rail follows neighbouring Kingston Council’s stance against sky rail adopted in May (‘Council ‘No’ to sky rail’, The News 25/5/16).

At last week’s council meeting Frankston councillors voted to tell the state government tthey did not support elevated rail to separate rail and road at Seaford Rd in Seaford and Skye/ Overton Rd crossings in Frankston.

But council’s adopted position on a third level crossing removal, at Eel Race Rd in Seaford, could put council on a collision course with the state government.

Councillors backed a council officer report that proposed the Eel Race Rd level crossing, near Patterson River Secondary College, remain in place due to lower road traffic at the crossing.

It costs about $150 million to re-

Cnr Springvale Rd & Wells Rd, Chelsea Heights PH: 9773 4453 www.chelseaheightshotel.com.au

move each level crossing and council would prefer the money earmarked for Eel Race Rd works to be funnelled towards Frankston train station upgrades or the electrification of the rail line to Baxter.

“We have assessed the level crossing removal options at each nominated site and reached a considered and well balanced decision that is in the best interests of the Frankston community,” mayor Cr James Dooley said.

“There still remains the question of local geology, which will be explained by the Level Crossing Removal Authority to council later this year.

“We will not support any option that considers the removal of housing and both council and the community have made it clear that the sensitive coastal environment in Frankston is highly valued and must be protected.”

NEWS DESK Police patrol

McDonald’s, Red Rooster raided THE same two thieves are suspected of robbing a McDonald’s restaurant in Moorabbin and a Red Rooster in Springvale South, around 10pm, Monday 25 July.

The men – of African appearance – wore t-shirts around their heads and boxer shorts on the outside of their pants in the raids which occurred 20 minutes apart.

Police said the men walked in the restaurant’s Warrigal Rd entrance and approached the counter. They produced knives and menaced staff, took cash from the till and ordered staff to the rear of the store. They then took the cash float from the drive-through and searched an office area where they stole another cash float.

Police said the men were “calm and did not yell but brandished knives and manhandled a female staff member”.

Two customers in the store left when the robbery began. It is not known how much was stolen in the raid. The bandits drove off in a silver hatch back – possibly a Suzuki Swift – with stolen plates.

Twenty minutes later, police believe the same offenders carrying knives and wearing masks robbed the Red Rooster outlet in Springvale Rd. Four staff were in the store when the men entered the kitchen and demanded money. One held a knife to the throat of a female staffer while they stole cash from the front register.

Police said one of the offenders smashed a window before they drove off in the same silver hatch back.

Statements have been taken from all witnesses. Call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 with information.

Post parcels raided Lest we forget: State Secretary of ANZAC House Michael Annett with artist and author Julia Gross McAdam at the official launch of a book dedicated to the lives of Chelsea district men who answered the call to go to war during World War I. Picture: Yanni

Great War men remembered THE sacrifice and dedication of Chelsea men in World War I has been recognised in a new book and video by Longbeach Place president Julie Gross McAdam.

The book and video, free to read and watch online, called Goodbye, Cobber: We Did Our Best details “the life and times of men from Chelsea and district who answered the call to Empire and volunteered to serve in the Australian Imperial Forces”.

Dr Gross McAdam began the project, funded by the Victorian Veterans Council, to mark the Anzac centenary this year by interviewing Margaret Diggerson, a historian at the Chelsea and District Historical Society, and mined Australian War Memorial archives and newspaper clips published between 1914-1918 to piece together the stories of those

who served the nation.

“I feel a special connection to the men of Chelsea, as my grandfather and four of my great uncles served in the AIF side by side on the Western Front,” Dr Gross McAdam writes in the introduction to Goodbye, Cobber.

The president of the community house, who holds a PhD research degree from Victoria University, began reading firsthand accounts of the Gallipoli landings and soldiers on the frontline in 1980 and Goodbye, Cobber is the culmination of decades of interest in the Great War. The book and video were officially launched at Longbeach Place last Friday (22 July).

See macart.com.au to read the ebook and watch the video.

UP to 200 parcels were stolen from the Australia Post depot in Braeside, 5.54pm, Monday 11 July.

Police said the offenders entered the Venture Way premises through unlocked sliding doors at the front which give customers easy access to their locked post office boxes.

They prised open a delivery hatch and unscrewed the lock to an inner door giving them access to the entire post office warehouse. After going through offices they accessed an area behind the reception counter where parcels packed ready for collection are stored.

The thieves used a trolley to steal the parcels and, in their haste, left many strewn across the floor – and even out front of the building.

CCTV footage shows a man wearing a grey tracksuit pants and hoodie, and a woman wearing a dark-coloured hoodie with two white stripes on the

sleeves and dark leggings.

“Australia Post takes great pride in the safe, secure and efficient delivery of mail,” Australia Post national media manager Jared Lynch said. “The integrity of the mail is our highest priority. Mail theft is a criminal offence and this matter is being handled by the police.

“Incidents of mail theft are rare and our corporate security and investigations group work closely with police on investigations. Security measures include CCTV, regular monitoring and screening. We are confident we have notified affected customers, however, if anyone has any concerns about their mail we encourage them to call us on 13 13 18.”

Fire call a hoax

A HOAX call caused the fire brigade to rush to a supposed fire at Moorabbin police station, midnight, Friday 22 July. The alleged caller – a Parkdale man, 38, whom police traced by his mobile phone number – told the operator there was a fire in a computer at the complex. This prompted police to search the Nepean Hwy building and prepare to implement their emergency evacuation plan, but action was aborted when no fire was found. At the time, eight male prisoners and two suspects were inside the building. The 13 police on duty were all made aware of the situation but no action was required to be taken. The caller – who is known to police – was allegedly seen earlier in the evening at Moorabbin railway station where he was ordered to leave by PSOs. He was later seen getting into a taxi outside Kingston police complex around the time the hoax call was made. He is to be interviewed for using a carriage service to menace and make a false report of fire to emergency services.

Drugs, driving charges POLICE pulled over a rental vehicle in Station St, Chelsea, early on Friday 22 July, and allegedly found a quantity of the drug ice, small deal bag and set of digital scales. The Cheltenham driver, 29, was found to have had his licence suspended for exceeding the speed limit by 45kph or more. Back at Kingston police complex the man admitted to being an ice addict over the past five years with a $100-a-day habit. He said he “couch surfed” at friends’ houses and was in Edithvale collecting a backlog of mail from his parents’ house. He said he was unaware his licence had been suspended. The man has been charged with possessing ice and driving while disqualified. He has been bailed to appear at court at a later date.

Science jobs for the girls

A CAREER in technology beckons for one of Patterson River Secondary College’s brightest mathematics and IT students, Jessika Du, who was invited to attend a University of Melbourne education camp for future engineers and IT professionals this month.

The 14-year-old from Patterson Lakes says she enjoyed the three-day Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine (STEMM) skills camp aimed at increasing female participation in the science and technology sectors.

Thirty girls attended the course from Victoria.

“I feel like I learned a lot of different skills in a lot of different engineering areas,” she said. “Being with people who are like-minded helped me develop life and people skills.

“I jumped into the program because it’s changed the way I think about engineering and IT. Hopefully I choose to go that way.

“In school we’re learning about pathways and choosing what you want to do.”

Programming and working with robots were two highlights of the threeday course.

About 75 per cent of fast-growing occupations require STEMM skills but only 16 per cent of high school graduates pursue degrees in STEMM disciplines according to the University of Melbourne.

Female representation in these fields is even lower with only 33 percent of tertiary qualifications being awarded to women in STEMM fields in 2011.

Urine thrown at girl

A SCHOOLGIRL waiting for a bus in Cheltenham was shocked when the person behind her splattered urine and faeces on her uniform, 4.20pm, Tuesday 19 July.

The girl, 14, was standing in line in Charman Rd when a person “of transgender appearance” threw the waste at her without warning.

The girl said her attacker looked “shocked” immediately afterwards and then ran off north towards the station. Nothing was said between them.

The girl called her mother to report the incident and police were notified.

The attacker is described as 165170cm, wearing a brown wig with black headband, pink jumper, brown skirt and black shoes.

The girl’s clothing has been sent to the police forensic unit at McLeod for testing.

Police are examining CCTV footage from nearby shops to help identify the offender.

Hard at it: Action from the weekend’s rugby union 7s tournament at Seaford’s Riveria Park. Picture: Gary Sissons

Forging new unions for rugby THE SPORT of rugby union may not be as popular as the AFL football powerhouse in Victoria but a Seaford-based club is spreading the word about the game in the south east.

Southern Districts Rugby Club will host Viva 7s Rugby at Rivera Park on Thursday 11 August, 6pm and are offering a ‘come and try session’ for 16 year olds and over to try the game.

The club also hopes to increase female participation in rugby union to reform a women’s 7s team after a threeyear gap.

“The game is a combined male and female exercise with seven players per side partaking in seven minute halves

game time,” club president Rob Hunter said.

Souths hosted a Masters Rugby tournament featuring eight clubs on Saturday (23 July).

“We had two father and son combinations with Ash and Karl Dix in the second row of the scrum and Fohe Tuipulotu and Melbourne Rebel son Sione combining in the centres,” Mr Hunter said. “Sione Tuipulotu recently returned from Manchester, England with the Australian Under 20 side which finished sixth at the Rugby World Championship.

“One place better than with his initial involvement with the team in Italy last year.”

Souths is the lone Dewar Shield team on the Mornington Peninsula and members come from as far south as Portsea, east to Casey and north through Kingston.

Three senior teams play in Dewar Shield top three grades.

Junior teams range from Under 6s through to under 16s.

“A major coup for the club is again hosting the Victorian Junior Grand Finals on Saturday 10 September after successfully staging the event the past two seasons,” Mr Hunter said.

Cyclist ‘slapped’ A FEMALE cyclist almost came off her bike when slapped on the buttock by a passenger in a passing car, noon, Wednesday 20 July.

The Hampton woman was riding north along Nepean Hwy, Carrum, at about 35kph when she says she felt a hand slap her buttock. She looked up to see a maroon Holden utility with three people aboard driving past at about 40kph.The force of the slap “caused a sudden jolt and nearly threw her off the bike”, Chelsea police said later.

The woman stopped and rang triple

zero and gave a description of the ute and its registration details to Chelsea police. Soon after, a police van intercepted a ute matching the description in Parkdale. The description of the man who allegedly slapped the woman matched the description of the rear passenger.

A 16-year-old, of Frankston, has been released pending summons for assault-related offences.

Townhouse burgled A TWO-storey townhouse in Carrum was burgled while the owner slept on undisturbed, 10pm, Thursday 21 July.

Police believe the offenders jemmied a rear sliding door with a screwdriver, then ransacked cupboards and draws in the lower level stealing jewellery, iPad, iPhone and camera.

They then tried to steal a black Lexus parked in the garage of the Nepean Hwy property but it has no battery and would not start.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Knives found

CHELSEA police found two knives in a passenger’s handbag when they pulled over a car being driven erratically in Wells Rd, Chelsea Heights early on Sunday. The man driving the car was also found to be disqualified.

Police said both occupants admitted to using drugs and the passenger consented to a search where two pocket knives were found in a handbag at 2.50am.

FEEDBACK

Kilbreda College preparing teachers for the future

Extremism denied

Kilbreda College is very proud of its partnership with the University of Melbourne, since its Master of Teaching Program was initiated in 2008.

The University of Melbourne has pioneered a pre-service teacher education program which has been significant in developing the profession of education and improving student learning outcomes across a wide range of schools.

Since the inception of this teacher training program, Kilbreda College has been privileged to be at the forefront of assisting the University of Melbourne prepare the next generation of quality teachers. Kilbreda College has been directly responsible for preparing over two hundred new teachers for the challenges, and rewards, of teaching young people to move towards their futures with the knowledge and skills required for twenty first century living.

Kilbreda College’s role as a base school in the program, places it at the centre of a partnership group of local schools. Mrs Peta Wragg, who has over forty years’ experience across all sectors of education, including 30 years at Kilbreda College, is the appointed Teaching Fellow to the partnership group, responsible for liaising with the future teachers, called Teacher Candidates, the experienced Mentor teachers in each school and University staff.

Using current educational research, coupled with extensive practical experience in our classrooms, our Teacher Candidates learn to become reflective, student-focused educators. They closely observe excellent teaching practice.

They develop positive relationships with their students and collegial relationships with staff.

They learn to accurately identify and address students’ learning needs and tailor their teaching approaches to achieve best possible outcomes for all students.

Being part of the University of Melbourne Program is not a one-way street. Kilbreda

PAGE 8

College teachers benefit significantly from this partnership. An intrinsic element of this rich experience is the professional development that ensues from the practice-centred conversations between mentor teacher and pre-service teacher.

Our experienced teachers share their expertise, they model and reflect on their best practices and they discuss latest educational theory with their Teacher Candidates.

Students’ learning needs and abilities are assessed, education theory and research are explored in relation to the students, lessons are carefully planned and taught, then thoughtfully assessed to determine if learning outcomes were achieved.

We have recently welcomed another group of Teacher Candidates to Kilbreda College. Each one brings a passion to teach, a willingness to learn and a determination to impact positively on the future of their students.

So disappointing that Cr Geoff Gledhill felt he had to misrepresent my position on sky rail (Letters, The News 20/7/16). For the record, my consistent position has been – as I said in my letter to the editor the previous week – to be committed to representing my constituents, and will support whatever option most people want. But would it not be better to wait until the state government informs us of the various options so we can consider their pros and cons of before falling in behind a divisive, politically motivated, fear campaign?

Equally insulting and inaccurate is his accusation that I have an “extremist ideology”. I have been elected four times as an independent candidate to represent the citizens of Kingston, which I do to the best of my ability. My pledge has always been to “protect what we have”, which includes our parks, green wedge, streetscapes and yes, trees, though has been difficult in this Kingston Council term with a ‘Gang of Five’ majority councillors who seem bent on destroying much of what our residents want us to protect.

For example, they rezoned land on First Avenue in the Edithvale wetlands for subdivision into 25 house lots (against hundreds of residents’ objections); undermined council’s previously adopted policy to discourage developments with two-storeys in the backyard (in incremental change GRZ3 areas); sold the Collins St depot site, which was urgently needed for parkland by residents of Cheltenham and Mentone areas worse off for public open space; there have been many votes to allow the Green Wedge to be carved up for subdivision which have fortunately come to nought.

It is surely Cr Gledhill and his colleagues who are the extremists.

Spare the greyhounds Monday night TV (11 July) was abysmal, as ever, so I tried radio. Wow, what luck, I found 3AW and was delighted to hear Andrew Bolt and his co-presenter on the subject of greyhound

racing with their voices of reason. But two women who called in to speak were not so, one even calling for the dogs to be killed. I presume they were “animal lovers”.

The greyhound racing industry is now under siege over a few, very few disreputable people abusing the privilege of owning a racing dog by forcing that dog into the situation of a live kill.

Now, countless families who love both racing and rescue dogs, based on the fact that they are intelligent, healthy, beautifully elegant and easy to live with, are in a state of real distress at the predicted result of a ban on greyhound racing in NSW, but what does this entail?

Maybe this is an excuse for a weak government pandering to the under-engaged button pushers, not to do anything positive about an already unlawful act. The powers that be are too slack to enforce the law.

Now the bleeding hearts are on the job, without any common sense of course, but how should their advocacy of the wholesale slaughter be carried out? Mass shootings by gun-crazy individuals for recreation? Dogs tied down and clubbed to death? Sent to a racetrack in Macau where a similar fate will await them? Would these whingers physically bring the dogs to meet their executioners? I wonder?

It is a bit hard to find homes for thousands of unexpected guests at short notice when the animal shelters are already overflowing.

GAP (Greyhound Adoption Program) and the Greyhound Safety Net have particular assessments of the dogs surrendered for adoption and of the people interested. Think about it.

“The classes combine exciting adventures, stories, songs and relaxation techniques as well as yoga games.

The sessions, taught by children’s yoga expert

Candice Bradford, are a good opportunity for parents and carers to bond with their children.

Accompanying adults can join classes free of charge. n The yoga classes are held each Thursday, 4-4.45pm at Aspendale Gardens Community Service, 103-105 Kearney Drive, Aspendale Gardens. $100 for 12-week term or $12 casual rate.

Councils united against sky rail Continued from Page 1 Council says it will back road under rail if the Eel Race Rd level crossing is removed. The Labor state government has signalled it does not intend to back away from its plan to remove the Eel Race Rd crossing.

“We won’t break our promise to this community,” Bob Neilson, a spokesman for Acting Public Transport Minister Luke Donnellan, said. “We said we would get rid of this dangerous level crossing and we will.”

Despite both councils’ opposition to sky rail Simon Johnson, founder of the noskyrail.com. au group, still fears the state government has plans for elevated rail along some parts of the Frankston line.

“There will be some form of sky rail – you can call it rollercoaster style – presented as an option on the Frankston line,” Mr Johnson said when he addressed councillors at last week’s meeting.

Stopping all elevated stations: Kingston and Frankston councils are against any sky-high rail lines along the Frankston line. Picture: Gary Sissons

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Commemorating two years of war Compiled by Melissa Walsh WE call special attention to an advertisement in another column announcing the holding of a Public meeting at the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston, on Thursday, August 4th at 8 p.m., to commemorate the anniversary of the Declaration of the War by England.

The meeting will be held in response to a request from the Premier of Victoria, that meetings should be held at the Centres throughout the whole State to commemorate the event.

After two years of this ghastly war, waged by the Allies for freedom, truth, justice and the fulfilment of honorable agreements between nations, it is fitting that the second anniversary of the war should be celebrated with all honor and solemnity.

The arrangements for the meeting are yet incomplete, but we are able to announce that Major Blezard, Commandant of the Military Camp, Langwarrin, and Captain Conder, Adjutant, will address the meeting. Both these officers have suffered from grievous wounds sustained in the operations on the Gallipoli Peninsula.

Further particulars will be supplied by handbills, but at the present time it may be noted that all returned soldiers are specially invited to be present. *** IN our report of the annual meeting of the Frankston Branch of the Red Cross Society, published last week, we omitted to mention that the £15 10s got by raffle of pug dog by Mrs

Pownell was given to the Australian Red Cross fund. *** THE third of a series of socials, in connection with the Allies Fair, will be held in the Mechanics’ Institute on Thursday evening next.

On account of the Hall being engaged for the second anniversary celebrations of the declaration of war, on the previously arranged date, it will be held on 3rd August instead of the 4th. *** ON Monday afternoon about 200 returned soldiers were entertained by the Australian Club, at Clarendon House, Frankston. The lawn in front was laid out with occasional tables and decorated with flags and flowers, making a very pretty scene. After partaking of refreshments, the soldiers had a pleasant stroll round and about five o’clock returned to the city, well pleased with their day’s outing. *** A MEETING of the Frankston branch of the W.C.T.U. was held on Thursday afternoon, 20th inst, in the Methodist Sunday School, and was well attended. The President (Mrs Twining) occupied the chair. After the usual business had been dealt with the following ladies were elected officers for the ensuing twelve months — Miss Purves President ; Miss Watson, vice-President; Mrs McCormack, secretary ; Mrs Renouf, assistantsecretary ; Mrs Parker, treasurer (reelected); Mesdames Twining, Wastell and Young, sick visitants ; Mrs Gale

Kindergarten : Mrs Twining and Miss McComb, campaign organizers. *** ON Wednesday, 9th August, at 2 o’clock, Mr Bernard Michael will offer for sale, at Coop’s Hotel, Somerville, the property known as Mr H. P. Thornell’s, containing 38 acres, situated about a mile from Somerville railway station. It is well fenced and sub-divided, and 8 acres are planted with choice export apples. *** MRS Scott thanks the following ladies and gentlemen who so kindly left gifts of fruit, eggs, jams, cigarettes etc at the Post Office to be sent to the State School Patriotic League.

The goods were sent on Monday and checked by headmaster Mr Carroll, Misses Baxter, Sage, Scott, Mesdames Sage, Hurndell, Waldon, Helbfer, Bowly, Fulton, J. Grant, Scott, Messrs Dicker, Barclay Holly and Hawken. *** THE second of the social evenings in connection with the Allies Fair to be held on 1st and 2nd September, was held by the Misses Young and Gray in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Tuesday evening, at which there was a very good attendance.

A feature of the evening was the “Zoo” drawing competition at which each of the guests was provided with a card and pencil, and requested to draw the animal named on the corner of his or her card. Some very picturesque and startling drawings was the result. Mrs A. W. Taylor being de-

clared the winner by the vote of the majority. Songs were sung by Miss O’Grady, Miss H.Laurissen and Mr J. C. Garrood, which added considerable to the general enjoyment. Light refreshments were handed round at ten o’clock, after which a pleasant hour’s dancing was indulged in.

The gifts brought by the guests will prove a handsome and valuable addition to the stall of the hostesses at the forthcoming fair. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold a sale of furniture at their room, Bay Street, Frankston, this (Saturday) afternoon, commencing at 2 o’clock, on account of various owners, a list of which appears in our advertising column. *** THE Queen Carnival, in connection with the Mechanics’ bazaar, promises to be a very exciting and payable contest. Tickets are selling rapidly and fairly evenly, up to the present, and the “tipping” will be safer left alone for a week or two longer. Each stallholder is working hard to have her representative Queen of the Allies.

Following are the names of the young ladies who have been nominated to represent the different stalls:— Great Britain, Miss N.Jolly; France, Miss Cunningham; Italy, Miss B. Rogers Russia, Miss Eva Young Belgium, Miss Hartland; Japan, Mrs Marks; Australia, Miss Gregory. *** MR Harry Skinner, the well known Scotch entertainer, was so much im-

pressed with the idea of erecting a monument to Frankston District Soldiers, that he has offered to provide a Scotch concert, to raise funds.

Mr Skinner intends bringing a first rate company, including Miss Emily Benson, a leading Melbourne vocalist, Dulcie Bland, winner of South Street Competitions, reciting and dancing, Mr James Chanter, the champion Piper of the Commonwealth, and other well known Society entertainers. Watch our columns for date, etc. *** THE steamer Innaminka, sold to a buyer in Hong Kong, is leaving Australian waters. Of all methods of keeping food stuffs, chemical preservatives are the least successful. *** ON Sunday, 30th July, a solar eclipse will be observable commencing about 11.50am. *** PRIVATE Peter McBride, son of our Agent-General in London, has been killed in action. *** ARBOR day, which had been postponed from a previous occasion, on account of rain, was held, at the Langwarrin school on Friday, July 21st, and on this occasion the weather was delightfully fine, and the event was very successfully carried through. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 29 July, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Mongrel: A love story about a dog called Monty

By Stuart McCullough WE called him a mongrel, not as a slur against his character but for a lack of information. To this day I have no idea as to his constituent parts. For all I know, he could easily have been one part terrier, one part cattle dog and one part astrophysicist. Having decided to purchase our new pup from the Lost Dog’s Home, we had arrived knowing that the process was, more or less, a lucky dip. As we toured the floor, there was plenty of barking as animals bayed for attention, but of all the dogs we saw that day, he was the only one to look excited to see us. The choice was easy.

There was always an element of mystery about him. Because no one was able to say precisely what he was, no one knew exactly what he would become. It was as though he had a secret identity. Some suggested that the length of his hind legs meant he would be a large dog. Others declared with confidence that he was as big as he was ever going to get. The dog said nothing.

The name was my father’s idea.

I don’t recall there being a short list or anything that could be loosely described as ‘consultation’. He was given a name and that was it. Having regard for the animal’s somewhat humble beginnings, my father thought it only right that we should make up for lost time and provide him with the most noble name we could imagine.

We named him Monty.

Having won his freedom from the Lost Dog’s Home, Monty the mongrel of indeterminate origin decided to live life to the fullest. He chased everything. He pursued us around the back-

PAGE 14

yard and scurried after birds through the scrub. He set off at great speed after rabbits and foxes. His energy seemed to know no limit. He even chased our orange Kombi van down the length of the driveway, giving up only after we pulled onto Coolart Road.

One day Monty pursued our van all the way to the road proper. Whether the thrill of the chase simply overcame him or he just forgot to stop running. Bursting into the public gaze, he kept galloping as though chasing the horizon. It was especially strange because, at the time, he had an ice-cream container around his neck. The container was supposed to stop him from scratching an abscess but it made him

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 27 July 2016

look like an astronaut.

As the dog burst out on the road, a chorus of children’s voices had alerted our parents to the fact that Monty had escaped into the wider world. The orange Kombi performed a rough u-turn and headed back search of our errant canine. In the time that it took us to turn the car around, a Council road crew filling in potholes had picked up our cosmonaut mutt. They placed our strange looking dog of unknown origin (but possibly from outer space) on the back of their truck and headed back towards the depot.

With all the power that the engine could muster, we got the Kombi up to nearly fifty kilometres an hour. We

considered it warp speed. Lucky for us, the Council truck was slower still and we – albeit not quickly – gained ground. Monty saw us coming. Unable to contain himself, he leapt from the truck tray, launching himself into the air. For that brief moment, he really was an astronaut.

Having landed on the bitumen, he was immediately hustled into our van and spent the next few weeks recuperating in the living room. I doubt that he ever wanted to move out. Some time later, we relieved him of the icecream container. But within seconds, he was scratching at his neck, more than ever. Perhaps it was simply a case of abscess makes the heart grows

fonder.

While completing the first flight from a council vehicle onto Coolart Road was quite an achievement, it was far from his greatest accomplishment. That came in 1982 when he was awarded first prize in the highly competitive and prestigious category of ‘Dog With the Waggliest Tail’ at the Tyabb Primary School Pet Fair. The rest of the competition didn’t stand much of a chance. When he was presented with a sash, it only made him wag his tail with even more vigour. I had thought, at the time, that he could have gone on to other, larger competitions – perhaps even have a crack at the National title – but it didn’t seem to matter to Monty. All the same, it was a title he wore with distinction long after the wag left him.

He was a part of our family, there’s no doubt. When I left home to go to University, Monty remained, patrolling the yard, the paddocks and the bush at the back of the block. He never grew an inch. The most he conceded to his advancing years was a slight greying around the mouth and stiffness in the way he walked. Still, he paraded through the yard as if it was his own personal kingdom. When the time finally came to move from this world into the next, Monty took one last walk across the paddock and into the scrub. He simply disappeared.

Monty was eventually found and is buried in our back yard. On a small wooden cross there is an inscription – ‘Here lies Monty – born a dog, died a gentleman’. The term ‘mongrel’ no longer fit him. He outgrew it. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

A lot to like about the Kangas PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt LANGWARRIN proved once again on Saturday that it is not far off becoming a consistent competitive outfit after leading all afternoon to beat Pines.

The Kangaroos, who again had five Under 19s playing, jumped out of the blocks and snatched an early lead, one that they didn’t give up for the entire match.

Karingal assistant coach Leigh Poholke told the RPP Footy Show on Saturday morning that he thought the Kangaroos could “get the Pythons on the outside with their leg speed on the open spaces of Lloyd Park”.

Poholke was absolutely right. Many say that Langwarrin should have beaten Pines when they met earlier in the season, however, inaccuracy in front

of goal cost them on that day.

History didn’t repeat itself. Pines was starved of the footy while the likes of Michael Parker and Nick Tuddenham dominated possession of the footy for the winners and Matty Naughton gave them first use in the ruck.

Mitch Cuthbert is an emerging defender and for a skinny kid still learning his craft, he continues to get better, makes the right decisions and attacks the footy. The Kangas need to invest in a gym membership for him.

Nick Hammill also gets a lot of responsibility each week as a key defender and continues to produce the goods.

There’s a lot to like about this young Kangas team, who will welcome back Sean Herdman soon too.

Kieren Albanese returned on Saturday after a couple of weeks off and en-

joyed the fact that Jack Fisher wasn’t playing for Pines, booting a game high three goals.

Pines being opened up the way they were is a concern.

Great sides find a way to win.

For 98 per cent of the match on Saturday between Frankston YCW and Mornington, the Doggies led on the scoreboard. They also led in general play.

The visitors opened the match with the first four goals and led by 12 points at half time. The margin was seven points at three quarter time but Mornington still had their noses in front.

However, as all great sides do, the Stonecats found a way. They booted 3.1 to 1.1 in the final quarter to snatch a five point win, 6.11 (47) to 6.6 (42).

Brenton Credlin was a welcome return and one of the best on the field and Jai Coghlan, Lachy Wallace and

Craig Nankervis got to work when they needed to.

Will Goosey and Michael Gay were the best of the Dogs.

On paper, Mornington is still a quality outfit and their best is very good.

It’s been a wasted season.

Mt Eliza coach Troy Shannon faced his old side Edithvale-Aspendale for the second time in opposition colours and came out with a 12.8 (80) to 7.7 (49) victory.

Matt Stanley booted three goals for the winners while Jimmy Clayton and Jay Neratzoglou were outstanding in defence. ‘Neratz’ restricted Mick Meehan to just one goal.

The Redlegs set up the win with a six goal to one first quarter.

Bonbeach returned to the list of winners with a 12.12 (84) to 6.6.42 victory against Karingal.

The Sharks worked hard against the

breeze and were able to score with it, ensuring they got the valuable four points.

Dylan Jones and Mark Tyrrell were outstanding for the Sharks while Jake Kelly and Luke Van Raay shone for the Bulls.

A very undermanned Karingal had four Under 17s playing, as well as a host of Under 19s. Ruckman Grant Goodall and Michael Burke were two notable absentees.

Seaford and Chelsea were dead level on 3.5 apiece at half time on Saturday before the Tigers got their noses in front in the third quarter. They were able to hang on in the last to win 9.10 (64) to 6.9 (45).

Aaron Walton booted three goals for the Tigers while Dean Kemble was outstanding.

Grant Trew and Todd Gardiner were outstanding for the Gulls.

Buds looking at repeat NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt RYE’S season is over.

The Demons are now a game and a half outside of the MPNFL Nepean Division top five, as well as a whopping 31 per cent after being humiliated by Rosebud by more than 100 points on Saturday.

After a mid-season slump that saw them look right out of contention, Rye responded to public criticism and got themselves back into the finals hunt.

However, a loss last week against an emotionally-charged Devon Meadows and then a 102 point belting on Saturday has ended their season.

This is the second season in succession that the Demons have missed out on finals action.

Their opponent on Saturday, Rosebud, has sounded a very clear warning that it is well and truly on track to defend its title.

The Buds are in outright second place on the ladder with 38 points, while Somerville, Hastings and Red Hill are all on 36 points.

Frankston has gone half a game clear at the top of the ladder after a convincing win over Devon Meadows.

Rye v Rosebud was billed as the match of the round – it was an absolute fizzer.

The Buds kicked with the wind in the opening term and booted the opening two goals of the game. Nathan Henley then responded with two of his four goals for Rye and at the halfway mark of the first term things were all square.

That’s when the avalanche started.

The Buds booted the next nine goals and went into the halfway mark more than 10 goals in front.

The margin blew out to 88 points at three quarter time and the final score was 22.15 (147) to 7.3 (45).

Rosebud had 13 different goal kickers with Dale Stephens playing his best game and booting three goals, along with Tommy Stoffels.

Keegan Downie was superb but didn’t kick a goal, such was the dominance of his teammates, including his little brother Sean who starred.

It would be unfair on Rosebud to say that Rye was poor, although that would be true.

Rosebud was a force, starting its run from half back, dominating through the middle and pushing hard into attack to create opportunities.

The Buds have beaten Somerville, Hastings and Red Hill and just went

down to Sorrento at Sorrento. They were poor against Frankston but didn’t get hammered. Rosebud is a genuine contender.

You could mount a case that Sorrento is gone too after going down to Hastings by 18 points.

The Sharks are now a game outside of the top five and have lost three of their past five matches (Devon Meadows, Somerville and Hastings).

The Sharks have just two more matches remaining for the season, taking on Rosebud at Rosebud and Red Hill at Red Hill. They were lucky to beat the Buds by a point in round five and got the job done by 28 points

against Red Hill in round seven.

On Saturday, the Sharks just weren’t as desperate as Hastings to win the hard ball and at times looked scared to get their hands dirty in the 6.14 (50) to 4.8 (32) loss.

Paul Rogasch was absolutely outstanding for the Blues, while the midfielders, Mark Devereaux, Nathan Gray, Pete Mawson, Dale Alanis, and Josh Mulheron in the ruck carved up their opposition.

The Blues were great in the first half and in the second quarter, 85 per cent of the play was in Hastings’ forward half.

Leigh Treeby worked hard for the Sharks, as did Tyrren Head, while Scott Lockwood worked hard leading up at

the footy.

Red Hill again looks vulnerable after going down to Dromana in a threepoint nail biter.

When the teams met earlier in the season, Red Hill won with the last kick of the day.

On Saturday, the Tigers kicked the last three goals of the game to win 7.8 (50) to 7.5 (47).

Frankston Bombers set up their win against Devon Meadows with a fourgoal to zip second quarter and eventually ran out 12.16 (88) to 6.8 (44) winners.

The Meadows had an emotionallycharged couple of weeks after the passing of Beau Miller, who’s funeral was

last Friday. Coach Glenn Michie (finger) and star midfielder Stevey Roberts (third ACL) also hung up the boots through the week.

The Bombers were apprehensive but got the job done. New forward recruit Luke James was reported.

Pearcedale overcame a slow start to beat Crib Point 7.13 (55) to 5.6 (36).

The Panthers trailed by 14 points at half time before booting six goals to one after the major break.

In the final game, Tyabb was restricted to just one goal for the second week in succession, this time by Somerville, who booted 15.18 (108).
