Troubled water for Pompei’s heritage push Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au THE Victorian Heritage Council’s registrations and reviews committee has rejected a proposal to include Pompei’s Marine Boat Works and Landing in Mordialloc on the state’s heritage register. The decision was handed down on 15 May after a hearing on 27 February. The final determination of the Heritage Council was that the site be considered “not for inclusion in the Vic-

torian Heritage Register but [referred] for consideration for local planning protection.” “After considering the executive director’s recommendation, all submissions and conducting a hearing into the submissions, the Heritage Council has determined (...) Pompei’s Marine Boat Works and Landing at 557-561 Main Road, Mordialloc and nearby lands adjoining Mordialloc Creek is not to be included in the Victorian Heritage Register and refers the recommendation and submissions to Kingston City Council for consideration for an

amendment to the Kingston Planning Scheme,” the determination read. Submissions in objection to the recommendation of Heritage Victoria’s executive director were made by a number of representatives, including Kingston Council, the Mordialloc District Historical Society, and Leon Pompei. Mr Pompei is the son of ‘Mr Mordialloc’ Jack Pompei. The boatyard is on crown land which was sold in December 2017 for $2.85 million (“Heritage push for Pompei”, The News, 12/9/18). The owner of the land made a submission in support of

the executive director’s recommendation. A notice of motion was included on the agenda for Kingston Council’s 27 May meeting which read that council “engage a heritage consultant to undertake a peer review and update of Kingston’s heritage overlay with a view to considering whether there are places or features in Kingston that warrant heritage listing that were not previously identified.” The notice of motion asked that “the industrial heritage consultant who provided council’s submission on the

Pompei Boatworks to the February Heritage Council hearing be asked to provide a recommendation to council in response to the Heritage Council’s recommendation that council consider a local heritage listing” and that “council not approve demolition of the Pompei boatworks until council has made a decision on the Heritage Council recommendation or has approved a development application for the site.”

Heritage hopes take hit for historic boat site Continued from Page 1 The Heritage Council registrations and reviews committee found that “Pompei’s Marine Boat Works and Landing at 557-561 Main Street and nearby lands adjoining Mordialloc Creek, Mordialloc does not reach the threshold for state level significance in relation to any of the Heritage Council’s criteria for inclusion in the register.” Both the nominator Mr Craig Cowie, and Kingston Council argued that the site satisfied a number of the set criterias. One of those is that the site has “strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group for social, cultural or spiritual reasons”. The Heritage Council noted in their final determination that “the executive director acknowledged that [Pompei’s Landing] has a direct and strong association with Mordialloc and Victorian boating communities and is regarded by the Mordialloc community as a landmark. However, found that while the place has strong associations with boat building and bayside recreation, the ability to interpret these experiences has diminished due to the changed conditions of the place. Further, the social significance of the place does not resonate beyond these communities.” The final determination read that “Kingston Council submitted that Pompei’s Landing is of social significance because of its association with the cultural history of Mordialloc and wider boating community, and its association with Mr Jack Pompei. Kingston referred to the Save Pompei’s Landing Facebook internet site and the naming of the nearby Pompei Bridge and Pompei’s Boat sculpture as evidence of this.”

Volunteers thanked: Kingston Council hosted a thankyou dinner in partnership with Chelsea Rotary to thank volunteers in the municipality. Picture: Gary Sissons

Kingston’s helpers come together “This is a night to say thank you to our volunteers, without their hard work there would be a substantial increase of rates so it was good to thank the groups that were there on the night,” Mr Harrison said. “It is very good company to be in. When you hear all these stories about what people do, it really brings you back down to Earth. We are all out there doing our little bit and this is a good time to come together and have a drink.

“We had the Kingston citizen of the year Beverly Fitzharris come down and she spoke very well. We also did something different and tried to get people more involved by having them come up and tell a feel good story, which went well. “Seventeen individual organisations were represented, and this was the eighth year that we’ve done this.” Last week was national volunteers’ week.

FRANKSTON Council has declared its intentions to refund $111 worth of parking fines after a review into their parking fine appeals process. Kingston Council announced in March that they believed their process for reviewing parking fines had been improper, because they had outsourced their appeals process to an external agency between 2006 and 2016. They declared their concern that they may have been in violation of the Infringements Act 2006, and confirmed they would issue around $2.3 million in refunds. Frankston Council confirmed earlier this year that they had also worked alongside an external agency, Tenix, to manage their parking fines between 2007 and 2014. The mayor Michael O’Reilly said in early April that “council is close to finalising its review in respect to Tenix, with a final determination expected within the next two weeks.” Cr O’Reilly told The News last week that council is only considering one request for a refund at present time. “To date, one person has requested a refund based on paperwork provided and it is likely that the $111 will be refunded,” he said. “Council will be briefed on the outcome of the information that has been reviewed. Council will need to consider how it wishes to move forward with this matter.” Frankston Council chose not to comment about what options might be considered going forward. It is understood that CEO Dennis Hovenden will brief councillors on the matter and a decision will then be made if it should be brought before council for further discussion. Brodie Cowburn

DOZENS of Kingston’s hardest working volunteers came together for a dinner last week, with council thanking them all for their hard work. The evening was run by Kingston Council in partnership with an organising committee, which this year was Chelsea Rotary. Chelsea Rotary spokesman Kevin Harrison said the night was a success, and that it was good to recognise the hard work of volunteers.

STUDENTS in Mentone are hard at work finalising their designs which will go up across the area as part of the Mentone Public Art Project. Art painted by Kilbreda College students will be put onto a series of poles and a large-scale mural in Mentone. The project is led by international artist Paola Ibarra Llano in collaboration with the Kingston Arts team. Thirteen Year 10 students are involved in the project, and are hard at work completing their designs. The large scale mural will be on the College wall along Como parade. Kilbreda College principal Nicole Mangelsdorf said “having the opportunity to work alongside an international artist and produce artworks for the community to enjoy is a wonderful learning experience for our students.” Kingston mayor Georgina Oxley said “the redesign of the Mentone electricity poles is one element of the Mentone Public Art Project. Incorporating art into an infrastructure project to build place and community gives community a sense of ownership of their place.” “Earlier this year council ran a public consultation to find out what stories the community would like to see reflected in Mentone as part of this project. We asked the community what stories they would like to see reflected in artwork in Mentone, which creates a sense of pride, identity and a feeling of ownership of the public space. Following community feedback, we have also commissioned a sculptural piece from artist Julie Shield who will create a piece which celebrates Mentone’s history and beach culture, as well as Italian Culture,” she said.

with Brodie Cowburn

Petrol pinched POLICE are investigating multiple petrol thefts that have occurred across Moorabbin and Frankston this month. Police believe that a woman in a Mercedes SUV with false number plates filled up at a Moorabin service station at 8.40pm, 12 May, and left without paying. They also believe that car may have been involved in another petrol theft on 16 May at a Nepean Highway service station. Images have been released of the two incidents in the hope that someone who identifies the alleged offender will step forward.

Alleged drink driver caught in school zone AN alleged drunk driver was pulled over on 23 May after being clocked driving nearly double the speed limit in a Cheltenham school zone. A 1990 Toyota Cressida was caught driving at 72kmph in a 40kmph zone around 9am at a Charman Road school. Police officers intercepted the car and breath tested the driver. He returned a positive preliminary breath test. The 62-year-old Beaumont man refused to accompany police back to the station for an evidentiary breath test. He was then arrested. The man is expected to be charged on summons with speeding, fail to accompany police for a breath test, unlicensed driving and drunk in a public place. His car was impounded at a cost of $878.50.

Stolen bike pulled over A MAN was arrested in Dingley in 23 May after being caught riding a stolen bicycle. At around 9.40am the man was caught, and found to be carrying stolen property as well. Some of the stolen items recovered after the arrest included an electric golf buggy, a bicycle, clothing, and jewellery. The items found had not been reported to the police as stolen. It is believed they are from a recent burglary. Anyone who has had property stolen matching that description should contact Senior Constable Joe Lanzano at Cheltenham police station on 9583 976.

Spikes stop stolen sedan A CAR stolen from Beaumaris was hunted down by police before being dumped on Excelsior Drive Frankston, 20 May.

A Volkswagen Jetta sedan was stolen and pursued by police. The pursuit concluded at around 1am. Road spikes were successfully deployed by police, who were assisted in their pursuit by the airwing. Police are still searching for one person, the passenger of the vehicle. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers.

Burglars flee on bikes TWO men are on the run after an alleged attempted aggravated burglary from a home on Falcon Court, Carrum Downs. At around 9.30 pm, 16 May, the victim heard a loud bang at their laundry door. They ran into the street and saw two men leaving the scene on monkey bikes. Frankston Crime Investigation unit detectives attended, and the K9 unit was deployed by police during the pursuit. Any information on the incident to Crime Stoppers .

Was ram caught on cam? AN appeal has been put out for dashcam footage to help police identify a driver who rammed a marked police vehicle, Saturday 18 May. Members of the Somerville Highway Patrol were on Cranbourne Road at around 2am and had checked the speed of a brown Land Rover Discovery. The police car did a u-turn to follow the vehicle, which stopped at a red light near Lee Street. With both vehicles stopped at the red light, the brown Land Rover reversed into the police vehicle, causing extensive damage to the front of the car. The car then fled towards Frankston. The car had the false number plate ABP 926. Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers.

THE temporary concrete and wire fence erected at The Pillars cliff jumping site at Mt Martha in December has gone. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council contracted out its removal early last week. Infrastructure services manager Jessica Wingad said the council will “seek feedback on the community’s experiences over the summer period”. “Council will be considering [its] options over coming months to determine long-term management of the site,” she said.

The fence, on the Esplanade, cost $140,000 which covered its hire, construction, traffic management and daily maintenance of damage and graffiti. The fence is credited with cutting down the number of people jumping off the cliffs, although it was criticised for its ugliness and police refused to climb or go around it to check if alcohol laws were being broken. Sightseers and cliff jumpers were back on the cliffs as soon as word of the fence’s passing was spread.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Empire day celebrated by local children Compiled by Cameron McCullough EMPIRE Day was celebrated locally on Friday when the children were given a right royal time. For weeks they had been looking forward to this day as their elders each year make it an occasion for merry making and also a time to instill patriotic sentiments into the young minds. The Baxter school children joined with Somerville and together they marched to the Mechanics’ Hall where Empire Day speeches were delivered by Messrs C. Murray W. Carroll, G. Shepherd and S. Uren and patriotic songs were sung by the children. At the conclusion of the program the Union Jack was saluted and then an adjournment was made’ to the Horticultural Hall where the ladies had loaded the tables with various kinds of delicacies. What a sight those long tables presented! The children and adults soon showed their appreciation of the good things provided by keeping a small army of waitresses busy replenishing the plates. Luncheon over, Messrs Carroll and Uren moved a vote of thanks to all who had helped to make the gathering a success, and especially to the ladies for the great amount of trouble they had taken over the matter. This was carried by acclamation, the children singing. “For they are jolly good ladies.” The children afterwards marched to the park where the sports program was carried out. Great excitement was created in events where one school competed against the other as in Chase Ball, Flag

Races etc. At 4.30pm a return was made to the hall where tea was served after which the children dispersed feeling that they had had a most enjoyable day and the grown ups vended their several ways, homeward and happy in the thought that they had assisted in making the lives of the little ones the brighter for that day at least. *** Seaford Progress Association VANDALISM Mr. Wilshire complained that four ti-trees growing near his residence had been willfully cut down during the night. He had given considerable attention to the trees, and they were an ornament to the road. He immediately informed the police of the act of vandalism, but it was difficult to trace the offenders in such cases. The president said he was glad Mr Wilshire had mentioned the matter. The association might not be able to do anything in the case under notice, but it could perhaps prevent similar acts. Mr. Wilshire said he would be willing to offer a reward for the conviction of the offenders. Mr. Brown moved, and Major Cowper seconded, that the association offer a reward of £5 for the conviction of the offender. – Carried. It was also decided, on the motion of Messrs. Brown and Cotton, that the notice of reward be advertised in the “Standard.” Mr. McCulloch: Who keeps the wood yard around here? Perhaps the

owner would contribute £1 towards the reward. (Laughter.) HERMIT’S CAMP Mr. Armstrong said an inspection had been made of the camp, as arranged. It was in a very dilapidated condition, and he did not think the association could do any thing. Mr. Hunter said if action had been taken when the association first approached the Council, the camp could have been preserved. The stringent condition imposed by the Council prevented, the association from attending to the place. Mr. Moffatt moved that the Council be asked to grant permission to remove the hut. At present it only offered an inducement for tramps to shelter there. Mr. Hunter seconded. Mr. McCulloch thought the motion was a lazy man’s way of getting over a difficulty. The Hermit’s Camp was a landmark which, in its time, had attracted thousands of visitors. He would like to see something done to preserve it. Mr. Matarana: Did the camp ever have any sterling value? Mr. McCulloch: No. Mr. Matarana: Who was the hermit, anyhow? Did he ever do anything that we should trouble about preserving his late domicile? (Laughter.) Mr. McCulloch: His name was Captain Maddox, I believe. I know nothing about him, but I do know that the camp was an attraction to visitors, and was spoken of all over the State. Mr. Brown said if put into repair a caretaker would be wanted. Mr. Neil: Put up a “To Let” notice

(Laughter.) Mr. Martin was in favour of allowing the camp to remain as at present, and he moved an amendment to that effect. Mr. Klauer seconded the motion, and it was carried. *** ALL persons in possession of raffle books, in connection with the Anzac Appeal are request to return same to the treasurer, Mr A. Wilcox, not later than 3rd June. *** THE Secretaries of the Frankston Peace Celebrations Committee acknowledge the receipt of the following additional donations. Dr Plowman, £1 1s; Mr G. B Booth £1 1s; Mr W. William “Rupertstan” £1 1s. *** MRS Pownell, represented the Frankston branch of the A.W.N. League at Dandenong on Tuesday 20th inst. when delegates from the Australian Women’s National League and the National Federal branches in the South-Eastern Province met to select a candidate to stand in the National interests. Nominations had been received from Mr F. Hagelthorn, M.L.C. and Cr Francis, and both were present. Councillor Francis, however, declined to retire from the contest if he were not selected, and consequently the convention declared in favor of Mr Hagelthorn. *** Heard in the Train. That Lord Jellicoe will be passing through Frankston on the 4th June, on

his way to inspect the Naval Base. That if Frankston possessed a bowling green many additional visitors would spend their holidays at the premier seaside resort. That the pastime is highly popular with both old and young and it should not be a difficult matter to form a bowling club and arrange for a green to be laid down straight away. That a good bowling green is one of the best advertisements any town catering for visitors can possess. That the Seaford Progress Association is well satisfied with its work in securing a sub division of the North Riding. That the S.P.A. is one of the few live associations of its kind on the Peninsula. That Cr Oates was favorably impressed by his visit to the S.P.A. meeting on Saturday night last. That he was so interested in the proceedings that he missed his train and had to work from home. That it is not characteristic of Cr Oates to “miss the bus”. For a public man with many engagements he is a model of punctuality and reliability. *** G.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

How to Avoid Game of Thrones Spoilers and Not Lose Your Mind By Stuart McCullough THANK goodness that’s over. I am officially delighted to put the last six weeks behind me. Relieved, even. After spending a month and a half doing all I can to avoid learning anything about the new season of Game of Thrones, it finally feels safe to leave the house. I might even read a newspaper. Now that the fear of finding out can be laid to rest, life as normal can now resume. It’s not been easy. Deliberate deprivation is tough in an age when over-sharing is the new normal and spoilers hang in the atmosphere like smoke. Frankly, I kind of resent it. I’ve found the whole experience very confronting. Over the past six weeks it felt as if there are two kinds of people in this world – those who have Foxtel and those who know someone who has Foxtel and are likely to drop around in the near future to watch Game of Thrones. Event television should be a unifying experience but, instead, it neatly divides the population into the haves and have nots. I know – I could subscribe to pay TV but, frankly, that would be giving in. It feels like a point of principle to resist. I’m not sure which principle exactly, but one of them. I’ve had to take precautions. People who approach me to make idle conversation are greeted with a raised index finger and a gentle shake of the head; clearly indicating that if they’re thinking of talking about last night’s episode and what Jon, Dany, Arya, Sansa and the crew are up to, they’d best reconsider. I just don’t want to know. I

have slammed doors, hung up on telephone conversations and repeatedly plunged my fingers into my ears whilst chanting ‘la, la, la, la’, all in an effort to avoid learning second hand the various plot twists that await me in the final season. How did it come to this? Television is a human right. Or,

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 29 May 2019

if it isn’t, it probably should be. When I was a kid, one of the things that unified people was the ability to discuss whatever happened on television the night before without fear that you were ruining someone’s day. Entire lunchtimes were devoted to dissecting the previous evening’s episode of ‘The Fall Guy’ and

reciting large portions of ‘The Young Ones’. These days, interactions with fellow students and colleagues are plagued by fear. Specifically, the fear of finding out before you’re ready. Television was a communal experience. Sometimes it still is, but it’s become much more individualised. And programs are controlled in a way that’s intended to bend you to the will of a corporation. It’s confronting. The idea that content can be withheld from the general public to provoke surrender is not so much a savvy commercial decision as it is the act of an evil super villain whose likely next move is to block out the sun. Even Cersei Lannister would draw the line at such behaviour. It creates a bizarre situation whereby Game of Thrones can only be viewed on pay television. This, in turn, provides an incentive to people to either subscribe to said pay television provider or, alternatively, break the law by watching pirated content. Without fail, these outbursts of illegality result in lots of news items describing horrific rates of illegal downloading, as if it wasn’t inevitable. Personally, I find the whole thing pretty objectionable. Maybe that’s because I grew up in an era when top shelf TV shows were available to anyone who had a television. Programs like ‘Cop Shop’, ‘Young Talent Time’ and ‘It’s a Knock Out’ weren’t locked away but were gifted to a grateful public, all for the slight inconvenience of having to sit through fifteen minutes of ‘Copperart’ adverts per hour. It was a small price to pay. Not that pay TV people

care. It’s easy to imagine those responsible sitting about stroking a denuded cat while staring off into the middle distance and laughing maniacally. They won’t win. So far so good. By digging a hole in my back yard and living underground for the last six weeks, I have managed to avoid any major plot leaks. Soon I will be able to purchase Game of Thrones and binge watch the whole thing in glorious, lawful surround sound. I realise that some might argue that I should just sign up for pay television for a short period of time rather than deny myself the undoubted pleasure of watching when everyone else is watching, but that misses the point. Were I to sign up to pay television, there’s a very real risk that I’ll start squandering all my free time by watching back to back episodes of some useless reality television program involving vending machine repairers based in some distant, hostile location and never get anything useful done ever again. My point is this: We should all be able to live in a world where the words ‘Spoiler alert’ are meaningless.

Tigers snap unbeaten streak DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn THE undefeated streak of Pines has come to a shock conclusion this weekend, as last year’s second division premiers Dromana secured an upset win. Playing in front of their home crowd, the Tigers got things started by kicking five goals straight in the first term. The Pythons chipped the lead back in the second term, with the lead standing at 11 points at half time. Dromana were able to kick a couple of quick goals at the start of the second half to keep Pines out of reach, and held onto that lead for the remainder of the game. Dromana secured the hard fought win 14.4 (88) to 7.8 (50), proving they belong in the top division. Sam Fowler and Ethan Johnstone scored four and three goals respectively for the Tigers in their big win, while Billy Quigley also had an impressive game. The win put Dromana up to third place and firmly in finals contention. At the other end of the ladder, Mornington have secured their first win of the season over the Frankston Bombers at Alexandra Park. Mornington had the upper hand throughout the first half, going into the main break with a seven point lead. The Bombers kept in touch and cut the lead back to two points going into the last term, but the Bulldogs held on to get off the mark in 2019. Warwick Miller booted four goals for Mornington to help his side to a badly needed win. Alex Harnett put in a good effort for

the Bombers, kicking four goals of his own. Frankston YCW had more success as they took on Edithvale-Aspendale, claiming a thrilling win at home. The Stonecats threw away a first half lead and were up against it going into the final term. Up by four, Edithvale-Aspendale found themselves in the box seat for a win. Edit-Asp were held to just one goal in the last term, allowing YCW to snatch back the lead and claim a thrilling two point win. The final scoreboard read Frankston YCW 9.10 (64) to Edithvale-Aspendale 9.8 (62). Luke Paynter’s four goal haul proved the difference. Sorrento had far less trouble on Saturday as they took on Bonbeach away from home. It was the Leigh Poholke show at Bonbeach Recreation Reserve, as he kicked eight goals in his sides dominating win. Sorrento put themselves on top in the battle of the Sharks early, and were sitting comfortably at half time with a 49 point lead. Sorrento secured an easy win 8.1 (49) to 20.14 (134). With Pines losing their first match of the year, Sorrento’s victory puts them top of the ladder. The Redlegs also secured a win on the weekend, defeating Rosebud 10.13 (73) to 5.5 (35). Both sides went scoreless in the first term, and the contest was fairly close throughout. A five goals to zero last term helped Mt Eliza secure victory.

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 29 May 2019

By Brodie Cowburn A NINE goal haul from star recruit Marc Holt has helped Karingal continue their hot streak in the MPNFL. Taking on Pearcedale away from home, the Bulls worked hard from the get go and led by nearly 50 points at half time. Pearcedale never got close after the Bulls got going, and a seven goals to one final term sealed their fate. Pearcedale were put out of their misery when the final siren sounded. The final score was Pearcedale 5.8 (38) to Karingal 18.15 (123). Holt has now kicked 42 goals from seven games this season, making him by far and away the standout forward in the league. Teammate Matthew Stanley also helped with four goals. Red Hill also continued their dominating start to the year, easily defeating Tyabb at home. The Yabbies were held scoreless in the first quarter, and never managed to fight their way back into it against the best defensive team in the competition. Another excellent team performance helped Red Hill secure victory 15.16 (106) to 5.3 (33). Jake Mold and Zach Vines kicked three goals each for the winning side. Brendan Fevola took the field again for Hastings as his side took on Somerville. A five goals to zero first term set Hastings up for an easy win. Fevola kicked two majors, in his side’s victory.

The final scoreboard read Hastings 12.20 (92) to Somerville 6.11 (47). Chelsea backed up their brilliant victory over Pearcedale last week with another impressive performance, this time against Devon Meadows. Jed Brain continued his good form for the Seagulls, scoring four goals. He now has 10 goals in his last three games. Devon Meadows struggled to hit the scoreboard and were made to pay. Chelsea took the four points with a 7.7 (49) to 14.14 (98) win. Rye had a tough day against Seaford at RJ Rowley Reserve, succumbing to defeat in front of their home crowd. The contest was tight all throughout the day, with both sides wrestling control of the game all afternoon. Rye led by five points at the first break, but trailed by eight by threequarter time. The Demons’ chances of a win were destroyed by a seven goals to two last quarter. Seaford were unstoppable in the last term, and eventually ran out winners 9.8 (62) to 15.11 (101). Aaron Walton played another good match for the Tigers, with his second five goal haul in three weeks. Nick Braund and Ben Howlett were also among the best for the winners. Crib Point endured another tough loss as they took on Langwarrin at home. Langwarrin were able to get the win without too much trouble, eventually claiming the four points 6.2 (38) to 13.23 (101).

Get set for super soccer weekend SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LOCAL derbies take centre stage this week as Frankston Pines, Skye United, Baxter and Seaford United prepare for battle. The first of two huge derby showdowns takes place on Friday night under the Monterey Reserve lights when Frankston Pines hosts neighbouring Skye United. These State 3 opponents still harbour hopes of mounting a promotion push especially fourthplaced Skye which goes into this clash on the back of a five-match winning streak. Skye prides itself on its fitness and organisation and once it wins possession it can go forward quickly with pace on both flanks. The set piece skills of Irish midfielder Mark O’Connor also pose a threat to Pines but the youngsters in the home side are quickly coming to terms with the demands of senior competition. Cedric Benza, Christian Malgioglio, Kevin Brown, Connor McAndrews, Nick Simmons, Travis Ernsdoerfer and Alex Bevacqua all have come from the NPL under-20 environment and have been fast-tracked into senior competition. On Friday they face their biggest test so far against an in-form opponent who has recently claimed the scalps of title favourite Collingwood City and promotion hopeful South Yarra. Baxter hosts State 4 rival Seaford United on Saturday and Seaford player-coach Matty Morris-Thomas is available after serving a one-match suspension. Seaford has the worst disciplinary record on the peninsula with five send-offs in eight matches but Morris-Thomas is adamant that the club doesn’t have a problem in this area. “We have been unlucky with a few decisions going against us, but we will get better as the team gets used to the new culture Andy (Lancaster) and I are trying to implement,” he said. No doubt that view will be tested in the whitehot cauldron of a derby battle. Baxter’s Dan Disseldorp and Charlie Jones are unlikely to recover from hamstring injuries but the club is hopeful that striker Nathan Yole (back), midfielder Stuart McKenzie (knee) and defender Matt McDermott (knee) will play. In NPL2 news Langwarrin is now third after Saturday’s 2-1 away win over Geelong. The sides were locked at 0-0 at the interval but Johnny Kuol put Langy in front in the 67th minute only for Geelong captain Matt Townley to level three minutes later. A clinical Jordan Templin finish restored the visitors’ lead in the 74th minute and when Geelong was reduced to 10 men after Paul Nicolescu was red carded in the 78th minute Langy was able to hold on for an important away victory. Langy’s FFA Cup run ended at Lakeside Stadium last Wednesday night when it went down 2-1 to NPL heavyweight South Melbourne. Langy’s second-string keeper Sermin Sadikovski walked out last week and signed with North Sunshine Eagles taking Langy head coach Scott Miller and assistant Jamie Skelly by surprise. It’s understood that the Lawton Park outfit is

looking at a number of signing options locally and overseas including a replacement keeper and the club may make some announcements shortly. In other Langy news two 16-year-olds from the club’s underage NPL sides are trialling with Melbourne Victory this week. Striker Keegan Myatt and defender Brodie Jones have been invited to trial for places in the A-League giant’s youth program. In NPLW news Southern United lost 5-0 away to Bayside United on Saturday with under-19s coach Liam Drury doubling up due to the absence of senior coach Melissa Maizels who was attending the International Football Coaching Conference Australia on the Gold Coast. The under-19s lost 2-1 with Kayla Aydin scoring for Southern, a Rhys McKenna goal gave the under-16s a 1-0 win while the under-14s lost 2-0. In State 1 news Mornington surrendered a twogoal lead to go down 3-2 at home to St Kilda Celts on Saturday. A superb free-kick from Sam Scott in the 11th minute made it 1-0 and Sammy Orritt capitalised on a poor goalkick from St Kilda keeper Arron Schille eight minutes later to make it 2-0. A stunning long-range strike from St Kilda midfielder Darragh Ryan in the 41st minute reduced the deficit and the sides were back on even terms in the 76th minute when a static Mornington defence allowed tall central defender Calum Fleming to ghost in at the back post and sidefoot home a Trent Whitely cross from the right. The killer blow was struck in the second minute of injury time when Mornington keeper Taylor Davidson was beaten in the race to contact a Whitely cross to the near post and Jack Butts headed in.

In State 2 news Peninsula Strikers won 4-1 away to Moorooolbark last weekend. Strikers’ gaffer Danny Verdun is overseas on business and assistant Neil Standish was in charge. Strikers went behind in the 17th minute when Sean Perrin scored against the run of play but Josh Calle equalised with the last kick of the first half when his shot was parried by Moorooolbark keeper Mark Namowicz and the rebound struck Calle and went in. In the 68th minute Strikers’ midfielder Danny Brooks put second-half substitute Matt Harrington through and he finished well to make it 2-1. Abraham Lokiru gave Strikers a two-goal cushion when he followed up a shot in the 80th minute and Harrington was on the end of a superb ball from another substitute, Lachie Mitchell, for a tap-in in the 84th minute. In State 3 news Paulo Pinheiro stepped in as head coach of Frankston Pines in the absence of Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor who was at the Championship play-off at Wembley on Monday (yesterday) but will be back in Melbourne in time for Friday’s derby battle with Skye United. Two second-half goals from CJ Hodgson gave Pines its first away win of the season when it defeated Elwood City 2-0 last Saturday. The first came in the 60th minute when he looked offside as he broke clear onto a through ball, lobbed it over advancing Elwood keeper Ben Paris before slotting the ball into an unguarded goal. Hodgson’s second came in the 80th minute when he lobbed Paris to secure all three points for Pines.

ROUND 9 BY E

ROUND 10

Skye defeated Diamond Valley United 3-0 at home last weekend. A lacklustre first half saw Skye take the lead with a long range effort from striker Mitch Blake. The home side had to wait until the 83rd minute to put this one to bed after Jason Nowakowski’s square ball found substitute Daniel Attard who finished from close range. The points were sealed in the 88th minute when substitute Johnny Andrinopolous sent over a cross that picked out Mikey Turner who finished well. In State 4 news Harry McCartney reports that Seaford and Springvale City drew 1-1 last weekend in a fixture rearranged last week for North Seaford Reserve. Springvale went in front after 10 minutes when an Arnel Zahirovic cross from the right was struck home by Robbie Mortaruolo from close range. In the 65th minute a cross from Adam Martin was deflected off Mitch Lander and despite a reflex save from Springvale keeper Yehya Dimassi, Kevin Derry got the final touch to make it 1-1. Dimassi was outstanding and his man-of-thematch display earned the visitors a point. In State 5 news Somerville Eagles had to settle for a share of the points at home after they were surprisingly held to a 1-1 draw by lowly Hampton Park United last weekend. Mark Pagliarulo scored for Somerville. An undermanned Aspendale Stingrays side went down 3-1 away to Casey Panthers last Saturday. Aspendale midfielders Kieran Hughes and Sam Timuska-Carr and winger Kenan Nuhanovic were unavailable due to injury while striker Guil Ribeiro has returned to Berwick City. Aspendale captain Peter Dimopoulos and Casey’s Dominic Navarra were both sent off in the 30th minute and right on half-time Leigh Gangemi gave the home side the lead. Substitute Jordy Athanassiou equalised in the 75th minute but goals in the 76th and 79th minutes from Casey striker Makiadi Joao settled the issue. Rosebud was on the end of an 8-0 thumping from runaway league leader Old Mentonians last weekend. This week’s games: FRIDAY, 8.30pm: Frankston Pines v Skye Utd (Monterey Reserve). SATURDAY, 3pm: Langwarrin v Whittlesea Ranges (Lawton Park), Southern Utd v Alamein (Monterey Reserve; under-12s 9am, under-14s 10.10am, under-16s 11.30am, under-19s 1pm), Mornington v Nunawading City (Dallas Brooks Park), Baxter v Seaford Utd (Baxter Park), Somerville Eagles v Bunyip District (Tyabb Central Reserve), Aspendale Stingrays v Endeavour Hills Fire (Jack Grut Reserve), Hampton Park Utd v Rosebud (KM Reedy Reserve).
