Huge lineup for country music festival THE second Mornington Country Music Festival will be held at the Briars, Mt Martha on 6th March 2021 after the great success of the event in 2020.

The MCMF is a one-day music festival filled with Australia’s best country-styled musicians suitable for all ages. We have gathered some of Australia’s best and emerging country rocks artists. The day will be must for all ages to enjoy the natural Amphitheatre and surrounds of the Briars on the Mornington Peninsula Victoria. The day will also include amusement rides, food trucks and beers, wines, spirits and cider from award winning local breweries.

Music seems to be a part of Kasey Chambers DNA, with 12 award winning albums under her belt since the release of The Captain in 1999, Kasey’s brilliant song writing, and world-class performance have earned her a rightful position on the global country artist stage. Often described as a genre-defying singer and songwriter, she wears the honesty of country music on her sleeve and has become one of the most popular and acclaimed artists of her generation in Australia while winning a devoted cult following in the rest of the world. In 2018 Kasey’s exceptional career was honoured by being the youngest female ever to be inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. Kasey and her band will play all of her much-loved songs from ‘The Captain’ and ‘Barricades & Brickwalls’ all the way through her

career to now, in a very special festival performance not to be missed.

Shane Nicholson Shane Nicholson is one of Australia’s most revered and awarded country artists and producers. He has received three ARIA awards – most recently for his solo album Hell Breaks Loose – 10 CMAA Golden Guitar Awards and two APRA awards. He is nominated for 3 Golden Guitar awards in 2021 - APRA Song of the Year, Video of the Year, and as a producer in the Alt. Country Album of the Year category.

Shannon Noll (Certified tripleplatinum sales, number #1 hits, five top 10 albums, has 17 platinum and three gold accreditations, and boasts a reputation as the only Australian male artist in national chart history

to have ever achieved ten consecutive top ten singles.)

Darlinghurst have performed all over the country; from the Gympie Music Muster to the Deni Ute Muster; from Gold Coast’s Groundwater Country Music Festival to Broome’s Rhythm & Ride Festival; and also supported a wide variety of established artists including The Wolfe Brothers, Shannon Noll and Thirsty Merc.

Whatever and wherever they perform, Darlinghurst are quickly establishing themselves as a must see act in Australian country music, having previously had three top five singles on TMN Country chart, including #1 for seven weeks. Their new, and fourth single “Gotta Go Radio” has slammed into the charts

at #3 on the third week in, as well as a debut of #80 and counting on the Nashville based Front Row Country Music chart.

Three-time Golden Guitar nominee, Jayne Denham is one of Australia’s most admired and sought-after country performers. Her impressive and relentlessly energetic live shows have earned her countless opportunities; from performing for VIP crowds at Keith Urban’s Sydney shows and playing all of the major Australian country music festivals including CMC Rocks, Deni Ute Muster, Gympie Music Muster, and the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

Her single Better Make It A Double is currently on high rotation on Kix Country and Hung Up On You, her Golden Guitar nominated duet with Troy Kemp, to date, has had over 1 million plays on Spotify.

Gareth Leach raised on the muddy banks of Echuca’s Murray River, Gareth Leach draws inspiration from the introspective and reflective lyrical concepts of his outlaw heroes, tinged with guitar-riff driven hooks that have remained in his blood since growing up with a background in punk-rock. In other words, he writes, performs and delivers country music with attitude. That should be Attitude with a big arse capital A. His 2019/20 mainstage festival appearances at Tamworth, the Deni Ute Muster and Mornington, paved the way for his new album ‘Trigger’; producing the #1 single ‘Honey’ and

topping the ARIA Country Charts, cementing his place in the Australian country music scene.

Gretta Ziller - Ziller’s roots span jazz, blues, rock, pop and classical, and that eclecticism is reflected in her songwriting. Her sound may bear the hallmarks of classic Americana music but its essence is far more diverse.

Ziller’s 2017 debut album ‘Queen of Boomtown’ received critical acclaim, it was long-listed for the Australian Music Prize in 2018 and receiving a nomination in The Age Music Victoria Awards. Gretta was also an APRA PD finalist and performed at Australian Music Week, November 2019 she has also received 2 Golden Guitar nominations for her releases.

Gretta Ziller returns in 2020 with new music, in the form of single ‘Unlikely Believer’ and a new home, signing to ABC Music Bo’Ness (Mornington locals) are the Twin brothers Callum and Jackson boast authentic sibling harmony, which is naturally captivating with musical abilities beyond their years.

The brothers appeared on the THE VOICE SEASON 9 - TEAM KELLY Fans are encouraged to book tickets early to avoid disappointment as due to covid restrictions there will be limited tickets for sale of first release. http://www.morningtoncountrymusicfestival.com.au/

Stabling planned for potential park space Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au KINGSTON mayor Steve Staikos says that the state government’s plans to turn land in Heatherton earmarked for the Chain of Parks into train stabling is “disappointing”.

A statement from Kingston Council read that the Delta site on Kingston

Road, Heatherton will be acquired by the state government for use as stabling for the Suburban Rail Loop.

Council had earmarked the land for its Chain of Parks - to be used as a regional sporting facility.

“We are naturally disappointed, and we are urging the government to secure an alternative site in Kingston’s Green Wedge for the important

regional sporting facility,” Cr Staikos said. “After significant work by Council, the Old Dandenong Road site was clearly identified in our Chain of Parks Masterplan as the perfect site for this unique new regional facility.

“It is now more important than ever that the government use the $25 million promised at the last state elec-

tion to purchase land for the Chain of Parks. Council is doing its bit having opened the Spring Road Reserve in Dingley Village and is now constructing a new park at Elder Street South in Clarinda. It’s time the government honoured its commitment and bought the Henry Street site.”

The Chain of Parks project sees former landfill sites around the Kingston

municipality converted into open green space. The plan proposes a core area of 355 hectares of publicly owned land linking Warrigal Road in Moorabbin to Braeside Park in Dingley.

Kingston councillors ticked off new concept plans for the Chain of Parks at a meeting in April (“Chain of Parks plans endorsed”, The News, 22/4/20).

Halfway point for freeway progress THE state government promises that 13,000 trucks will be removed from local roads after the construction of the Mordialloc Freeway.

The project to connect the Mornington Peninsula Freeway and the Dingley Bypass has now passed the halfway point of construction. It is projected to be completed within a year.

In an update released last week, the state government promised that the new road would remove up to 13,000 trucks from local roads and improve travel times by up to ten minutes in peak hours.

Mordialloc MP Tim Richardson said “in a difficult year we’ve seen incredible progress on the Mordi Freeway. This project supports local jobs, will get people home to their families safer and sooner. We’re getting it done.”

The project will see bridges built over Springvale, Governor, Lower Dandenong, Old Dandenong, and Centre Dandenong Roads.

Mental health workshops considered KINGSTON Council is considering funding mental health workshops to help people deal with the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic.

At their 14 December meeting, councillors voted to receive a report in March “addressing the feasibility of establishing a series of communitybased mental health workshops, which would be implemented as part of a trial and form a part of Kingston’s Covid recovery.”

The report will also “consider creating a grant application process, enabling sporting clubs and registered community organisations to access funding for workshops, which would be provided strictly by qualified mental health professionals at suitable venues.”

Keep beaches clean BEACHGOERS this summer are being reminded to clean up after themselves.

Kingston mayor Steve Staikos said “we need to make sure that while we are playing, walking, relaxing and celebrating we also respect the precious environment around us. Help us to keep Kingston clean and beautiful, remember to remove and bin all rubbish when you leave for the day.

“We are also lucky to have some high quality, valuable habitat vegetation along Mordialloc Creek and in other areas. Sticking to the main paths when out enjoying nature is important to protect our natural environment.”

JUSTIN Kasimu, who died at Frankston Beach. Picture: Supplied

Fundraiser for funeral costs A FUNDRAISER for the family of a man who died at Frankston Beach earlier this month has raised nearly $20,000.

Justin Kasimu was found unresponsive at the beach on 12 December. Bystanders pulled him from the water and tried to revive him, but he sadly died.

A Gofundme campaign has been set up to help pay for his funeral and to send his body to Kenya.

Dominic Nzioka and Stephen Muli,

contacts of the family who set up the fundraising page, wrote “Justin unexpectedly passed away on 12 December leaving behind his young wife”.

“Justin was pulled out of the water around noon at Frankston Beach in Melbourne after he was found unresponsive. Despite the heroic efforts by first responders, he could not be revived. Coroners report indicate cause of death was due to sudden rupture of brain vein.

“The family is shocked and saddened by this loss and unfortunately not financially prepared as this was unexpected.

If you knew Justin you’d know how much he touched the lives of everyone around him.

“We are raising funds to assist with Justin’s funeral costs and repatriation of his body to Kenya as the family deals with this loss.”

Search for Seaford stabbing suspects

On the watch: The new Peninsula Link cameras. Picture: Gary Sissons

TWO men are wanted by police over a non-fatal stabbing in Seaford last month.

On 19 November, an 18-year-old man was stabbed in the stomach while at the beach with friends. Police say that the perpetrator and an associate fled towards Station Street, then north along the train tracks.

The victim survived the attack, but

spent multiple days in hospital to recover from serious injuries.

Last week police released CCTV images (below) of two men they wish to speak to about the attack.

Police say that “the first man had a solid build and was approximately 186m tall. He was wearing a two-tone green and dark blue hi-vis polo top, dark pants and white socks.”

“The second man is believed to be approximately 180cm tall with a slim build and was wearing a black Hilfiger t-shirt, dark knee length shorts and a dark coloured cap. He was unshaved and had short dark hair.”

Information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

Cameras zoom in on speed, phones TWO new speed cameras on the Peninsula Link freeway are zooming in on north and south-bound traffic.

The cameras, on the Ballarto Road bridge, are instantaneous and pointto-point fixed speed cameras.

Also, in the lead up to the cameras being installed, drivers on the freeway were being monitored by specialist cameras designed to detect mobile phone use and “dangerous driving activities”.

The cameras in the three-month study, which assessed 200,000 drivers and identified 4000 possible offences in their first four weeks “on the job”, were not set up to fine drivers so no infringements will be issued.

Early results showed that about one in every 50 drivers were spotted illegally using a mobile phone in the trial which ended in October.

It is not known if the cameras will be permanently installed on Peninsula

Link.

A spokesperson for the Department of Justice and Community Safety said despite only two cameras operating during stage four coronavirus restrictions, the technology “showed it has the capacity to detect significant numbers of offences where drivers are doing the wrong thing on the road and putting themselves and other road users at risk”.

Research conducted by the Monash University Accident Research Centre estimated this new camera technology could prevent 95 casualty-crashes a year.

The spokesperson said the state’s traffic camera program was playing a “critical role in changing driver behaviour, preventing road trauma and reducing the number of lives lost on our roads”.

More than 2.2 million cars travel along Peninsula Link every month.

Urban grassfires can spread at 25km/h.

Urban fringe grassfires move very quickly. You’ll want to leave, but don’t drive. The smoke is blinding and you can block roads for emergency vehicles. Grassfires aren’t known to spread into built-up areas, so just walk two streets back and check the VicEmergency app for warnings. If you already live more than two streets away, just stay safely inside.

A MAN was caught driving nearly four times over the alcohol limit in Frankston North, 11 December.

A man in a Holden Commodore was breath tested on Monterey Boulevard. Police allege that he admitted to drinking half a bottle of vodka.

The man allegedly returned an evidentiary breath test reading of 0.186.

His licence was immediately suspended, and the car was impounded for a month. He is expected to be charged on summons with drink driving offences.

A POLICE ATV will be patrolling beaches in Frankston and Carrum Downs this summer.

Frankston Police Superintendent Adrian White said “the community can be assured that the ATV will allow police to have a highly visible police presence across Frankston’s beaches this summer to respond to any anti-social or criminal behaviour and keep the community safe.”

“Our beaches are a wonderful place for the community and visitors-alike to come and enjoy, but our message to those looking to engage in anti-social or disruptive behaviour is simple.

It will not be tolerated and you will be held accountable for any actions that negatively impact other members of the community.”

Council shuts door on rooming house plans Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A PLAN to construct two rooming houses on Potts Road in Langwarrin has been rejected by Frankston Council.

A maximum of 16 residents would have been allowed on the premises. A telephone number with 24 hour access to the building’s manager would also have been available for complaints.

Councillors refused to grant a permit for the project at their 14 Decem-

ber meeting, citing that “the site is an unacceptable location for a rooming house as it is not located close to key services and infrastructure that is encouraged by Frankston Planning Scheme.”

The houses were to be constructed at 70 Potts Road. Each rooming house was proposed to contain eight rooms with ensuites, and a communal living area and kitchen.

Cr Suzette Tayler said council had received 121 objections to the development. “I understand that we do need more affordable housing, but rooming

houses next door to aged care is not acceptable,” she said.

Brad McPherson identified himself as the applicant at the council meeting.

During his public submission he said “this isn’t going to be like the Ambassador in Frankston.”

“NDIS have already given us an expression of interest, and it’s gone to a meeting with our plans,” he said.

“If we didn’t think this was going to be rented by the NDIS we certainly wouldn’t be going down this track.”

Mr McPherson noted that there was no agreement in writing with the

NDIS yet.

There are more than 70 rooming houses registered in the Frankston municipality, according to Consumer Affairs Victoria. It defines rooming houses as buildings where one or more rooms are available to rent, and four or more people in total can occupy those rooms.

There is currently a shortfall of lowcost housing in the Frankston area.

Data released in August by Homelessness Australia and housing campaign Everybody’s Home revealed that the Dunkley electorate has a social hous-

ing shortfall of around 3,000 (“Local homelessness a crisis”, The News, 10/8/20).

Crs David Asker, Nathan Conroy, Liam Hughes, Steven Hughes, and Suzette Tayler voted to refuse the permit. Crs Sue Baker, Claire Harvey and Brad Hill voted against the refusal, and the mayor Cr Kris Bolam abstained.

Councillors also listed the removal of trees on the property as a reason for their refusal.

Council officers had recommended to councillors that the application be approved.

Soccer side makes move south-east

Wishing you a very happy Christmas and the very best for the New Year.

If I can be of assistance with any federal issue, please don't hesitate to contact me. I am happy to help.

A-LEAGUE side Melbourne City will move to the south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne next year.

The club has announced plans to move into Casey Fields in Cranbourne. The facility will serve as the team’s new training ground.

The Melbourne City academy will move into Casey Fields in February, taking advantage of the already constructed facilities. The club will take full occupation of the site in early 2022.

The Melbourne City W-League side will play four games at Frank Holohan Soccer Complex in Dandenong this season.

Melbourne City FC CEO Brad Rowse said “Football is the number one participation sport in south-east Melbourne, with 115 grassroots clubs and 23,000 registered players across the wider region. There are 1.9 million people living in the region, and this move creates a fresh street-to-stadium pathway for all the boys and girls who have been desperate for a professional team on their doorstep.

“The opportunity presented at Casey Fields is clear - a brand-new purpose-built facility with bigger capacity, more pitches and right in the heart of a diverse and growing community with a deep footballing tradition,” he said.

The move has been backed by the Team 11 group, which unsuccessfully bid for an ALeague license for a new south-east Melbourne based side.

Team 11 chairman Ghadir Razuki said “the Team 11 movement was never about one person, nor even one group. It was a collective push by individuals and organisations committed to delivering a professional football club to a region within which football already plays such a big part at grassroots level.

“And while [the Melbourne City] announcement may not have been foreseen when we started on this journey, it is nonetheless a fantastic outcome for a region that deserves a club to represent it on the national stage.”

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Mr Edward Dess insulted at Frankston Compiled by Cameron McCullough EDWARD Dess, Draper, of Frankston, proceeded against W. Connal on a charge of using insulting words near a public place on the 3d December.

Mr. Smart appeared, for the complainant, and, Mr. L. L. Rostron for defendant, who pleaded not guilty.

Complainant said that on the day in question he was behind his counter transacting business when defendant rushed into the shop, and shaking his fists in complainant’s face said, “Dess, you German; you are nothing but a – German. You have no right to be in Frankston among patriotic people.”

Complainant said that defendant repeated the words and similar expressions, and refused to leave the shop when requested to do so.

People attracted by the disturbance congregated at his shop door.

Complainant said he was not a German, and produced Consul’s certificate in proof of same.

He was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1850, and had been in Australia for the last 50 years.

Cross-examined by Mr. Rostron, complainant said he was a pure Dane, born of Danish parents.

Defendant did not call him a Hun; witness did not think Connal knew the meaning of the word.

Athol W. Brown, commercial traveller, was in Dess’ shop at the time of the disturbance, and gave corroborative evidence.

Constable Diaball said that at the request of Dess he removed Connal from the shop.

The defendant was under the influence of liquor.

For the defence, Mr. Rostron said defendant had had considerable domestic trouble.

On the day in question he had taken drink.

He was a returned soldier, and had a natural aversion to Germans.

Defendant entered the witness-box and said he remembered going into Dess shop under the impression that Dess was a German. He wanted to tell him what he thought of Germans.

Witness was willing to make amends provided Dess was not a German.

Cross-examined by Mr. Smart, defendant said he was following no occupation at present.

The last time he went to work he took ill and had to return to hospital.

He was living on his pension.

Mr. Rostron said if Dess was as loyal as he made out he would be prepared to accept Connal’s apology.

P.M.: We find him guilty, and must convict. It is generally assumed that any person with a foreign accent is a German. Dess may have as big an objection to Germans as Connal.

Defendant is fined £2 in default 14 day, with £2/11/6 costs. *** A NICE haul of salmon trout was made at Frankston on Saturday last

by Mr. W. McComb.

They didn’t last very long – once he reached the jetty! *** VARIOUS New Dwellings, etc., are in the course of erection in the Frankston district – at The Heights,

and elsewhere.

All this is good to see, for the shortage of material has seriously hampered the building trade in the Frankston district. *** ANOTHER whale has been washed ashore at Balnarring – 35 feet in length.

It is a rare sight to see a whale in Westernport these days, but there was a time when they were as plentiful as seals are at Seal’s Rock today.

And that is saying a lot! *** “WISER people” are saying that the Mechanics’ Institute at Frankston is more suitable for a rustic locality than a progressive holiday resort like Frankston.

They also say the scenery is hardly suitable for Her Majesty’s!

But, all in good time – Frankston, is due for some progressive moves in the future. And a new Town Hall may be included in the programme! *** MR. A. T Walters, of the Bay Street bakery is to be complimented upon the artistic display of Xmas cakes he made on Saturday last.

“It makes me mouf water,” remarked a small boy, who, like most boys, knew a good thing when he saw it! *** A CONTINGENT of boys under the guidance of the Y.M.C.A. will camp on Mr. Baker’s property at Mornington at Xmas time.

The North Fitzroy Boy Scouts will do “the simple life” for several days at Mile Bridge, Frankston.

*** AS usual, the Mornington Peninsula is going to be the people’s campingground, so to speak, for the summer months.

Picnics have been arranged for Seaford, Frankston, Mornington, Dromana, Sorrento, and Cowes from various sources – from Trades Hall industrial organisations to church picnics and Chambers of Commerce outings.

Very good: we have an enviable climate, and it is just that we share it with others, especially those from the crowded cities. *** A BUSY man these days is Mr. E. Barrett, who occupies the post of secretary to the Frankston Horticultural and Agricultural Association.

He has arrangements for the forthcoming exhibition well in hand, and everything is working smoothly.

The entry forms have been printed, and are now procurable at Mr Barrett’s office at the Mechanics’ Institute, whilst the catalogues will be available in a day or two.

These are in the course of printing at “The Standard” office. *** THEY are saying that the versatile cricketer, Warwick Armstrong, is personally well-known in the Carrum district, as he is a regular visitor to that holiday resort in the summer time. *** THE Aerial Derby promises to be an event worthy of the seeing.

In today’s issue, the Larkin-Sopwith Aviation Co. have an interesting

notice to the public concerning the event, which will be decided over a course between Mordialloc and Frankston on Boxing Day. Lieut. Ray Parer, R.F.C., will take part in the race. *** REFERENCE was made in “The Standard” last issue to The Fernery’s enterprise in erecting a refrigerating plant.

The work is proceeding, and Mr. Bradbury expects to have things shipshape by Xmas Eve. The building is constructed entirely of reinforced concrete, and is altogether a substantial structure.

The concreting was carried out by Mr. S.Lawrey, whilst the carpentry work, etc., has been entrusted to Messrs. Bowley and Coopes. *** THE Prince of Wales Hotel, Frankston, has been completely transformed in appearance since Mr. McKinnon secured the hotel.

A balcony has been added, with frontage to Davey Street and Mornington Road, which adds attractively to the Hotel’s appearance.

Inside and out, it has been completely renovated and painted – and it is safe to say that the Prince of Wales is now one of the best-appointed and best-conducted Hotels in the State.

The Australian Ensign flies from the flag-pole – which is as it should be, for it cultivates a healthy national sentiment. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 17 December 1920

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Breakdance Me To The End of Love

By Stuart McCullough 2020 has been a tough year. Flood, fire, pestilence and plague pretty much sums it up. Despite a steady stream of bad news, people have generally put their shoulder to the wheel and kept on going. And given the year has been so cataclysmically and persistently dismal, it’s only right that the world should receive some well overdue good news as we near its end. That good news came last week when it was announced that breakdancing would be an Olympic sport at Paris in 2024. That’s a mere twelve hundred and seventy two sleeps away. Hooray! I think I speak for everyone when I say, ‘about time’.

This is especially pleasing for me on a number of levels. Firstly, it means the Olympic Committee has been receiving my letters. Given that I have been posting one letter a week arguing the case for Olympic-level recognition of popping, locking and the electric boogaloo since I was twelve, I was beginning to suspect they were ignoring me. That’s over fifteen hundred letters in total that I had assumed were being shredded when, instead, they were gradually wearing down the resistance of the people that matter. It also means that I’ll finally get a chance to represent my country.

For decades, I’ve had a green and gold tracksuit tucked away in my dresser draw, waiting for exactly this moment.

Indeed, it’s been there so long that I’ll likely need an extra length of elastic added to the waistline. I know that there are some people who’ve greeted the announcement with a degree of incredulity but think of it this way - breakdancing and regular Olympic sports have a

lot in common. They all place a very high importance on wearing tracksuits at all times.

I can now legitimately refer to breakdancing as a ‘sport’, because that’s what it must surely be, now that it’s heading to the Olympics. I feel vindicated. It’ll be interesting to see who commentates on the event itself. I like the idea of our finest sporting commentators becoming excited as a competitor goes from a ‘worm’ straight into a backspin. Given that it’s new to the Olympics, it’s quite possible that they’ll need to bring in experts for special comments. May I suggest that someone contact Turbo and Ozone – last seen in the breakdancing

movie ‘Breakdance 2: Electric Boogaloo’ – and put them on standby for Paris.

The other thing to look forward to is the choice of music. Sports fans are used to the kind of rubbish that ice skaters and gymnasts select for their routines, but I can’t think of a single occasion where someone has used ‘The Breaks’ by Kurtis Blow or anything from the extensive catalogue of Run DMC as they’ve worked the pummel horse. More’s the pity. Better still, rather than simply select a tune, breakdancers could be supported by a DJ and a couple of MCs. If that doesn’t sound like something becoming of the Olympics, remember that we’re talking about an

event where all the participants used to compete naked. I’m just saying that it’s important to keep things in perspective.

My own breakdancing journey began at the centre of the breakdancing universe: Tyabb. Granted, many people mistakenly think of cities like New York as the being the heart of the whole breakdancing movement, but those people have never been to Tyabb. While the town is renown for its antiques and vintage memorabilia, it also boasts and thriving breakdancing scene. Or, at least, it used to thirty years ago, when my brother and I took it up.

When it came to breakdancing, I was something of a natural. A prodigy, even.

My brother, who, it must be said, was far less naturally adept, took breakdancing lessons at the Tyabb Town Hall from an Instructor named ‘Maggot’. I’m hoping that’s a nickname, but I can’t be entirely sure. Together, we formed the best breakdancing posse this side of Frankston. A cardboard box would barely last minutes at our house as it was immediately flattened to support our attempts to backspin.

But like an ageing prizefighter, the question now is whether it has all come too late? I’ll admit that I don’t breakdance as often as I used to. That’s despite having the kind of ready access to cardboard boxes that I could only have dreamed of back when I was starting out. My uprock, downrock and power moves may all be a little bit rusty this point. The challenge is clear – my brother and I must begin our training now if we’re any hope at all of a podium finish in 2024.

All breakdancing crews worth their salt need a decent name. ‘The Rock Steady Crew’, ‘Star Child La Rock’ and ‘Crazy Commandos’ are names that cast a long, rather intimidating shadow. Which is why my brother and I are proud to announce that we plan to represent Australia as the ‘Coolart Road Crew’ at Paris in 2024. Get ready to cheer us on.

I’ve got my tracksuit on and Kurtis Blow blasting out the stereo. The time has come for me to lay down some slick moves to some sick beats as I backspin my way to glory. My time is now. Or, to be accurate, my time is 2024. In Paris.

I can’t wait. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Two tons at Flinders, top order shine for Carrum, Balnarring lucky after late collapse

By Brodie Cowburn

Sorry Sorrento: The Sharks fell to a 110 run defeat against Langwarrin. Picture: Andrew Hurst

PENINSULA

TWO centuries were scored on an entertaining afternoon of cricket at BA Cairns Reserve on Saturday.

Flinders hosted Heatherhill and chose to bat first. Opener Kane Hawkins put on an unbelievable performance, smashing 17 boundaries on his way to a mammoth score of 120 off 83 balls.

Number four batsman Matthew Gale also joined in on the party, scoring 98 runs before being unfortunately dismissed just short of his century.

Flinders’ innings expired with the side at 5/288. Heatherhill would have to climb a huge mountain to get a result.

Heatherhill’s run chase got off to a dream start, with both Don Pulukkuttiarachchi and Jake Williams in fine form.

Pulukkuttiarachchi played a huge part, scoring a century before being run out.

It was a valiant effort, but Heatherhill ended up 14 runs short of a result when stumps was called. Their huge total of 274 wasn’t quite enough to get the win.

At Ballam Park East, Long Island picked up a win against Somerville.

Somerville was sent in to bat first, but didn’t get off to a good start. At 3/27 the side was in a bad position.

Middle order batsmen Justin Allsopp and Ryan McNamara helped to steady the ship and get their side to a final total of 156.

Long Island were able to chase down that target with two overs left to play. Number three batsman Tom Boxell top scored with 61.

Moorooduc wrapped up a win at home by defending a total of 182 against Seaford Tigers. The Tigers lost by 25 runs.

At Eric Bell Reserve, Pines defeated Main Ridge comfortably. The home side won with five overs and six wickets left to spare.

DISTRICT

A STRONG showing from Carrum’s top order secured the side a win over Pearcedale on Saturday.

PROVINCIAL

Shaun Foster was Carrum’s best, passing his half century. His side set Pearcedale a target of 188 to chase down.

Pearcedale opener Joshua Swainston offered some resistance with a score of 60, but didn’t get much help from his teammates. Pearcedale scored just 124 from their 40 overs and fell to defeat.

Crib Point played well on their home deck on Saturday to get the better of Hastings.

The visitors chose to bat first but couldn’t do any damage on the scoreboard. Hastings finished at 6/119 off 40 overs.

Crib Point’s run chase started disastrously, with their first three batsmen all sent back to the sheds for single digits.

The middle order got things back on track, giving Crib Point the win with 10 overs left to play.

Dromana bowled out Frankston YCW for just 88 to secure victory in their clash at Dromana Reserve.

Rosebud also got a win on the week-

163 to chase down. Ben Ashworth was by far their best batsman with a score of 82.

Tyabb’s openers came to the crease and played with confidence. Their hot start helped the side claim a seven wicket win with nine overs left in the day.

A 71 run effort from Ryan Jellie helped Boneo secure the points against Seaford.

Boneo chased down 169 runs to win.

They lost a couple of wickets early, but that proved nothing more than a bump in the road.

A brilliant knock of 90 off 71 deliveries by James Quarmby was the highlight of the day as Carrum Downs and Mt Martha faced off.

Carrum Downs wrapped up the win early by chasing down a target of 133 with 15 overs left to play.

Ballam Park put a disappointing total on the board against Tootgarook, costing them the game.

Chasing 158 to win, Ballam Park ended up all out for 110.

end, defending a small total of 113 by bowling out Delacombe Park for 64.

SUB DISTRICT

A LATE collapse nearly cost them the game, but Balnarring still managed to scrape over the line against Skye.

Playing away from home, Skye chose to bat first. None of their batsmen stood up to make a huge score, and they ended up all out for 136.

Both of Balnarring’s openers were clean bowled early, making their run chase more difficult. Their middle order steadied though, and at 6/127 they looked in prime position to win. They quickly lost 3/7, but managed to hit the winning runs with one wicket left to spare.

A late half century from James Cato helped Balnarring secure victory.

A mammoth 138 run opening stand between Robert Hearn and Aidan Pateman got Tyabb the win over Rye on Saturday.

Rye were sent in to bat first, and ended up setting their opponents a target of

PENINSULA OB have maintained their unbeaten start to the season by the skin of their teeth.

Peninsula OB chose to bat first, and set Baxter a target of 141 to chase down. Oscar Craig was their top scorer with a patient 45 off 99 balls.

A late collapse cost Old Boys a chance at a bigger total. They lost their last 5 wickets for just 7 runs.

Baxter chipped away at the total, and at 7/129 looked in prime position to bring OB’s winning run to an end.

The tail end couldn’t finish the job though, as Baxter were bowled out for 138. Another four runs would have got them the win.

Two late wickets from Justin Grant helped his side secure the narrow victory.

Mornington put on a big total on Saturday in their clash against Red Hill.

Mornington set their opponents 217 to chase down. Ben Clements and Matt Foon both scored half centuries.

Red Hill worked hard to chase down their target, but couldn’t get the job done. They ended up at 9/176 when stumps was called.

Mt Eliza weren’t able to defend their total of 108 as they took on Baden Powell at Emil Madsen Reserve.

Baden Powell ran out victors by four wickets with five overs left to play.

Sorrento’s struggles this season continued on Saturday. They fell to a 110 run defeat at the hands of Langwarrin.

Matthew Prosser decimated Sorrento’s batting lineup, posting figures of 6/8 off six overs.

Pines to host 2021 Wallace Cup SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie MONTEREY Reserve will be the venue for the ninth staging of the Wallace Cup on Saturday 6 February.

Somerville Eagles and Mount Eliza make their tournament debuts and will be placed in two groups of five.

The other contestants are Langwarrin, Mornington, Peninsula Strikers, Frankston Pines, Skye United, Baxter, Seaford United and Rosebud.

The annual charity event kicks off at 12 noon with the top two teams after the round-robin stage qualifying for the semi-finals.

The four semi-finalists will be drawn from a hat to determine the matches for the tournament’s penultimate stage and the kick-off for the final is scheduled for 5.15pm.

The event is a celebration of the local game and honours Stephen William Wallace, Langwarrin life-member and former club president, committeeman, coach, player and Bayside League referee who died on 19 July 2011 at the age of 54.

Langwarrin president Tanya Wallace is the event organiser and is keen to further develop the day that honours her father’s contribution to local soccer.

“I think getting two new entrants from our area is a positive and hopefully going forward we can include all the clubs in our area,” she said.

On the club front Wallace announced that Langwarrin has slashed its NPL underage player fees by $400 to $1800 for the 2021 season.

“I think we needed to acknowledge the COVID situation and the impact it has had on families financially,” she added.

“Our program is now well established and we have a great bunch of coaches and a technical director (Gus Macleod) who is committed to player development.

“We want to prove to players and families that there is a senior pathway and we have already promoted players from our under-21s to our seniors and

February flashback: Wallace Cup action earlier this year as Mornington defender Reece Caldecourt closes down Baxter forward Jordan Ferdinand (right) at Centenary Park.

we want to continue doing that.

“The great thing throughout our entire NPL program was our ability to retain the majority of Langwarrin players who were given first preference for squad places rather than immediately looking externally.”

Langwarrin has also established a scholarship scheme for its NPL under17s.

“It’s a tough age group as there are players wanting to play senior football and there often are study requirements as well so the demands of training and playing are high but we’re delighted to have secured Premier Builders Group to offer financial support for those that find the costs of participation prohibitive.”

The club also recently received confirmation from council that the $500,000 lighting upgrade at Lawton Park will provide the main pitch and the top pitch next to the two new entrances with 200-lux NPL-standard floodlights.

The project is scheduled for completion by the end of next March.

As we went to press we received news that Langy’s second string keep-

er Colby Jones had signed with State 1 outfit Beaumaris.

The 19-year-old felt that opportunities at Langy were limited after the return of Fraser Maclaren so he has headed in the opposite direction and joined Maclaren’s old club.

In State 2 news Peninsula Strikers have confirmed some pre-season friendlies (1pm and 3pm unless noted): Saturday 16 January v Noble Park Utd (Centenary Park), Saturday 23 January v Aspendale Stingrays (Centenary Park), Thursday 28 January v Frankston Pines (seniors Monterey Reserve 7.30pm, reserves Centenary Park 7.30pm), Saturday 13 February v Dandenong South (Centenary Park), Saturday 20 February v South Springvale (Centenary Park), Saturday 27 February v Doveton (Crinigan Road Reserve, Morwell 1pm), Saturday 6 March v Keilor Park (Centenary Park).

The February clash with Doveton is part of Fortuna 60s Friendly Games and it gives Paul Williams’ side a great opportunity to test itself against an opponent preparing for its maiden NPL3 season.

In State 5 news there has been a changing of the guard at Rosebud with Melissa Osorio stepping down and John Grbac taking over as club president.

“This year I decided to stand down as president after three fantastic years due to a health condition,” Osorio said.

“In those three years myself and our wonderful committee have accomplished so much.

“I want to thank everyone for their support over the years – parents, players, past players, Greg (Hurvitz) from Football Victoria, Mornington Peninsula Shire council and of course my husband Rob (club vice-president) and kids.

“I’m confident that John, Rob and the new committee will continue to do fantastic work for our club.”

There may also be a coaching change at Rosebud as both Scott Morrison and Mark Pagliarulo were sounded out recently regarding the senior coaching role currently filled by Pat Sabatino who did not respond when invited to comment.

Morrison recently stepped down from his senior assistant’s role with

Peninsula Strikers and his connection with Rosebud dates back to 1994 when watching his father Jim playing.

He’s a former Rosebud player and coach however he shunned the club’s overtures and “Pags” did likewise.

The veteran Scottish striker informed the club of his decision on Sunday morning and is undecided whether or not to stay there as a player.

“Who knows where I’ll end up next season but I’ll play somewhere,” he said.

“The committee have amazing plans for the club and the new president, vice president and treasurer were brilliant with me but my personal and work commitments are my focus and I wouldn’t have been able to fully commit to being the manager there.

“Great club and great people but I’ll decide on where I’ll play after Christmas.”

As reported last week Blake Hicks has been training with Seaford United and there’s also doubt about Ben Gamble staying at Rosebud.

In other news A-League outfit Melbourne City announced last week that it would relocate its training and administrative base to Casey Fields.

In what is a major boost for the sport throughout the broad south-east and peninsula regions City along with Dandenong and Casey councils have a Heads of Agreement in place after year-long negotiations.

City will set up the Etihad City Football Academy (CFA) at Casey Fields which will boast an elite training pitch, four full-sized floodlit pitches and a two-story elite performance headquarters building, with space for a 4000-capacity mini-stadium.

It’s expected that City’s NPL programs will play home games at Casey Fields next year with its senior teams and administration to start relocating from Bundoora in July.

Dandenong council is hopeful that the move will add impetus to its push for a 15,000-seater boutique stadium next to Dandenong train station.

Laurie has a week to remember HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON-based trainer Matt Laurie had a week to remember after saddling up four winners and a second placing from five runners last week.

Laurie kicked off the week with a winner at Mornington on Tuesday 15 December as American Saint broke through to win her maiden at start number five. He then followed up the success with a winning double at Yarra Valley on Friday as Yulong Island and Jenni Express also removed their maiden tags in comfortable fashion.

Heading to The Valley on Friday night, the resuming Malicorne brought up the stables fourth straight winner with a dominant victory first-up in the three-year-old fillies contest.

Laurie finished off the night with the oddson favourite Sayumi running a gallant race to finish a narrow second in the three-year-old benchmark 64.

The inform trainer said he was absolutely thrilled with the week’s results.

“It was a very satisfying week for everyone at the stables and great to get the results for all connections involved,” Matt Laurie said.

“They were in the right races and the horses went in in good shape so it’s great that everything all aligned on their days.”

Laurie is currently going at a 22 per cent winning strike rate from his last 50 runners.

Four on the trot: Matt Laurie brings up his fourth consecutive win for the week as Malicorne wins at The Valley on Friday 18 December.

2020 National Works on Paper opens at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery

Support local business SUMMER is finally here but it’s going to look a bit different this year on the Mornington Peninsula. Outdoor dining - dining alfresco - has always been popular, but this summer you’ll be spoilt for choice. Locals and visitors can experience creative outdoor spaces with loads of atmosphere to enjoy culinary delights and a cold beverage while soaking up the sun and fresh air in new ways.

While you might have to drive a little slower and park a little further away to appreciate these lively ‘parklet’ spaces across the

Peninsula, it’s a small price to pay to keep the village centres thriving and support local jobs.

Outdoor music programs over summer showcase local talent and get musicians back to what they love doing most, entertaining.

The Mornington Peninsula Shire urges everyone to consider how we spend, recommend and utilise local services while exploring all that the region has to offer.

gallery visitors to activate a stack of white A1 paper.

This participatory performance takes the idea of a work on paper to a new dimension, embedding the structure of the paper as the object and central to the action.

Through a set of instructions, visitors engage with a sheet of paper and their own imagination.

The 2020 National Works on Paper prize is a celebration of paper, as well as artistic resilience. The works make up a time capsule of creativity, prior to the instability and uncertainty caused by the global pandemic.

The 76 works presented in this iteration of the award were made in the preceding two years leading up to the middle of a tempestuous year where bushfires had already scorched Australia and a virus had started to plague the world.

This exhibition offers a chance to step back in time and re-visit a period before we transitioned into ‘a new normal’ of social distancing and mask wearing.

MPRG Artistic Director Danny Lacy said: “It’s worth reflecting on this in relationship to the vibrancy of the work on display. The positive energy, confidence, experimentation, humour, wit and clarity of the works sits in stark contrast with Melbourne’s recent lockdown and the residual haze of having just woken from hibernation.”

The winner of the NWOP award will be announced during a special online launch on Friday 11 December via the MPRG website, judged by Louise Tegart, Director Art Gallery of Ballarat, Gina Mobayed, Director Goulburn Regional Art Gallery and Danny Lacy, MPRG Artistic Director / Senior Curator.

WHY WE SAIL

THE Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery biennial National Works on Paper (NWOP) prize is one of the most prestigious awards and exhibitions in Australia, attracting leading contemporary artists from across the country working in the fields of drawing, printmaking, collage, animation, digital prints and paper sculpture.

Coinciding with MPRG’s 50th anniversary, the 2020 NWOP exhibition takes place 5 December – 21 February.

Seventy-six artists have been shortlisted from close to 1200 entries.

NWOP supports and promotes contemporary artists with up to $50,000 acquisitions and awards, including the major $15,000 acquisitive award.

The finalists represent how artists are constantly adapting and transforming the medium of paper.

Paper that is soaked and pressed becomes embedded with the intricate detail of Annika Romeyn’s mark making that re-imagines the landscape at Guerilla Bay (Yuin Country), New South Wales, for a mesmerising large-scale watercolour piece titled Endurance 2 2019.

Compositionally complex, Romeyn trusts in the process and the materials, relying on memory and intuition to match the wash and tonal areas across the panels.

Paper is transformed in Jenna Lee’s captivating work re/verse/d, a series of small sculptural vessels created from deconstructing and reconstituting the pages of colonial texts which misrepresent or perpetuate hurtful stereotypes of Aboriginal people.

For Jenna, the act of reading the original books opens a way of understanding how to deconstruct and transform the text.

Paper is integral to Brian Fuata’s work Paper waits, a unique propositional work that invites

QUEENSCLIFF may be a good 30 minute drive from Geelong or a 40 minute ferry ride from Sorrento but this summer a pop up Mexican Cantina opening 27 December may just be the reason to cruise down the highway or across the Bay. El Barquero, beside the Beach is serving fresh, simple, yet traditional Mexican food. The menu could be viewed as a Mexican cantina with drinks or a Chupito (shot) bar with Mexican on the side. You choose.

Chef Jason Bushell and Daniel Ovalles have created an authentic menu with passion, and for good reason. Jason spent a month long honeymoon in Mexico falling in love with street vendors and beachside hole in the walls. Daniel, originally from South America, brings his experience of traditional spices and flavours, together with inspiration from his family recipes. On the menu is a delicious trio of house made salsas and corn chips to start, several softshell tacos, including slow cooked red pepper beef, green pepper and coconut pulled chicken and the very special Fish Taco – a Macadamia crumbed Rockling. There is a classic Burrito and Quesadilla, a selection of street food style sides and

an intriguing Calamari Nachos as well as your regular Gringo Nachos. The bar is serving up a range of beers, local and Mexican, wine & cool cocktails. For those who dare, the hero here is a range of Chupitos (shots) that will definitely get you in the mood for food.

A pop up container, painted by street artist, Bryan Itch of Ink Bomb Studios, is the centrepiece of the large outdoor dining space. It acts as the main bar and is where the Chupitos are created. Tequila shots with fresh fruits, juices and even chillies, the perfect accompaniment to a taco or burrito.

Open every day from 12pm to 9pm, El Barquero operates side by side with RORO Café, next to the ferry terminal. It is a pretty cool way to spend a summers day or evening, enjoying the small things, hanging with your amigos, with the sound of waves breaking in the background. Or grab a takeaway and in a few steps sit on the beach and just soak it all up.

If you are visiting from Sorrento, make sure you catch the last ferry back at 7pm.

Eat in or takeaway. Visit www.elbarquero. com.au

PARC is rebounding from Covid and is back to support you in 2021!

FOLLOWING an on and off 8-month closure period due to the impact of COVID-19, Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre is back stronger than ever in 2021.

The business had tremendous success with the launch of its digital platform, PARC Your Way, during closure supporting the local and wider community to keep active whilst at home for free. This program is continuing to run whilst the facility is open, meeting a demand for the flexibility of at-home fitness workouts popular with so many people these days. It is the perfect solution to keeping active throughout the busy holiday period.

The facility itself welcomed back visitors from early November and following a gradual increase in capacity is now operating at ‘COVID normal’. This means it’s almost back to its former glory but with strict hygiene and safety measures in place. Patrons can enjoy all of the usual fitness and aquatic programs, including Aqua classes and hydrotherapy with the familiar

Visitors can again enjoy the stunning 27-acre grounds, which offers a full and diverse range of activities including the ANIMALIA in Sand exhibition, 18-hole Mini Golf Course, maze, boardwalk and giant board games. There’s also a bungee tramp and rock-climbing wall for visitors

looking to challenge themselves in gorgeous surrounds, which is available on weekends and each day during school holidays.

Evie Wittingslow, Marketing and Events Coordinator of Boneo Discovery Park, said the team are delighted to open our doors once again and welcome families and long-term friends of the Park to enjoy our beautiful surrounds once again.

“Guests can also be assured of their

ANIMALIA in Sand, the hero sculpture park, transforms the much-loved classic children’s book

by Graeme Base into an impressive outdoor exhibition with 26 giant sand sculptures created by some of the world’s most renowned sand sculptors. An innovative app brings to life the sculptures, through a sand and

screen immersive experience created especially for the exhibition, revealing hidden stories throughout.

More than 3,500 tonnes of sand were used to create the ANIMALIA characters ranging from Ingenious Iguanas to Vaudeville Ventriloquist Vultures, with fifteen award-winning sculptors from around the globe who worked for over 450 hours collectively to bring the exhibition to life along the wetlands and lush garden pathways.

The extensive grounds are also the perfect destination for a picnic after exploring the park, with The Lakeside

Kiosk available for takeaway food, drinks and alcoholic beverages.

Tickets are available online and on the door, priced at $18 per adult and $15 for children and senior citizens.

This includes full access to the park facilities and the ANIMALIA in Sand sculpture exhibition.
