Spring Fair returning THE Spring Fair event returns to Keeley Park this Saturday, 17 October. Live music, dance workshops, food trucks, and rides are scheduled for the free annual event. Kingston mayor Georgina Oxley said “there’s something pretty special about a spring day spent outside with family, friends and your community.” “You can jump on the Ferris wheel, have a go at one of the activities, enjoy some live music or simply find a spot on the grass and enjoy a bite to eat. It’s also a great chance to discover some of the services and activities available across Kingston,” Cr Oxley said. “And with entry and all the activities free, there’s no reason not to come along. So, grab your family and friends, pack a picnic if you like, and come and celebrate spring with us.” The Spring Fair takes place Saturday 17 October, 10am - 4pm, at Keeley Park in Clayton South.

Rossdale redevelopment to be reconsidered Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au THE proposed redevelopment of the Rossdale Golf Club has been put on ice, after the club terminated its agreement with the developer. The Rossdale Golf Club decided to sell its 43.5 hectare home and move in 2018, and began consulting on plans to redevelop the Aspendale golf course in 2023. Kingston Council
opposed the proposal, but in 2025 had its authority over the site ripped away when the state’s planning minister intervened. Earlier this year an independent planning panel report into the proposal was released, reading that the conversion of the land to housing was “possible while protecting the site’s areas of environmental sensitivity and the Ramsar wetlands.” (“Golf course housing plan ‘possible’ – panel”, The News 14/4/2026) Last week, it was confirmed that
Rossdale Golf Club had terminated its agreement with developer Casey Group. The future of the redevelopment is now in limbo as the club considers its options. Kingston mayor Georgina Oxley welcomed the announcement. She said “this is significant news for the many community members who have followed this issue closely and value Rossdale Golf Club’s place in our local community. The club will continue exploring options for its future
and we look forward to learning more as that work progresses. “Kingston has worked very hard over a number of years to ensure environmental and community issues were properly considered throughout this process. We are pleased that the conversation can look at the future of the club and the opportunities that may exist moving forward. Council stands ready to work constructively with this community focused club as it considers its next steps and explores
future opportunities.” The sentiment was echoed across Kingston Council; deputy mayor Cr Sarah O’Donnell said “one of the strongest messages the community can send is through supporting the club. If you’ve ever thought about becoming a member, booking a round of golf, enjoying a meal at the clubhouse or hosting a function at Rossdale, now is a great time to do it.” Continued page 3

Suspended councillor runs for parliament KINGSTON councillor Caroline White has declared her candidacy for the upcoming state election, promising to “put City of Kingston into administration” if elected. Cr White, who is currently suspended from Kingston Council, will run as an independent for the seat of Clarinda currently occupied by Labor MP Meng Heang Tak. She has been a vocal critic of the state government during her time on council, particularly focusing on its handling of the Kingswood Golf Course redevelopment proposal. Cr White announced her nomination for Clarinda on social media last week. She said “following the Labor state government’s decision to ram through Satterley’s noncompliant development plans for the Kingswood
Golf Course in Dingley Village, and Labor spending half a million dollars of ratepayers’ money targeting me at Kingston eventually suspending me from my elected position as your local city councillor, I am thrilled to announce I’ll be running as your community independent for Clarinda in the upcoming Victorian state election.” Cr White is serving a two-month suspension from council after a Local Government Victoria arbitration finding that she had breached the Model Councillor Code of Conduct. The arbiter’s finding read that “Cr White breached the relevant standards when she implied that Cr [Hadi] Saab improperly received a financial benefit from a grant to the Druze Community Charity of Victoria.”
In her campaign announcement, Cr White said “I am the only person that if elected will fight to overturn the [Kingswood] approval decision; put City of Kingston into administration for their involvement with the development and ‘allegations’ of perverting the course of justice; have a Royal Commission into IBAC & Victoria Police as I believe they are covering up for Labor in the lead up to this election; and depoliticise our police force because they should be serving us, not a corrupted Labor government.” The state election takes place on 28 November. Other declared candidates for Clarinda are incumbent Meng Heang Tak (Labor), John Paganis (Liberal), Gavin Bain (One Nation), Conor Boyd-Eedle (Greens), and Kit Message (Victorian Socialists).

Golf course conversion in limbo Continued from page 1 Kingston Council initially flagged “serious concerns” with the redevelopment proposal in 2023 (“Golf course redevelopment plan premature”, The News 15/6/2023). In a statement released last week, council said it has since worked to “audit the golf course’s significant environmental values, including its extensive tree canopy, wildlife habitat and connection to the internationally recognised Ramsar-listed Edithvale Seaford Wetlands; seek support from the Victorian Government for independent environmental assessments and highlighted the importance of fully understanding ecology, flora, fauna and biodiversity impacts before any consideration of rezoning; [and] reiterate to the Victorian Government that Kingston’s approved housing strategy identifies suitable locations for future housing growth close to transport, shops and activity centres and does not rely on the loss of large areas of open space such as golf courses”. The project was referred to the state’s Priority Projects Standing Advisory Committee for consideration in mid-2025. The subsequent report read that “the committee is satisfied that the proponent has undertaken adequate assessments and made the necessary enquiries to support redevelopment of the land, subject to the committee’s recommendation for further work in relation to site values, opportunities and constraints.” “An independent economic report confirms that the proponent is not financially viable under its current
model and there are no realistic alternatives to conversion of the land for other purposes. The land tenure allows for conversion and the site is considered surplus to golfing needs,” the report read. “The proponent advised that there are two caveats on the land title but no other restrictions. One caveat relates to a telecommunications tower on the site and the other deals with an agreement with Hume Residential Pty Ltd for the first right of refusal should the land be sold. The committee was advised that this caveat expires in December 2025. Based on the information provided the committee agrees that the tenure of Rossdale does allow for its conversion, should it proceed.”

Nacho incident investigated A SEAFORD man has been charged after allegedly throwing nachos at a child after an AFL match at the MCG last month. Police allege that after the Hawthorn vs Brisbane Preliminary Final, 19 September, a man threw a plate of food at a 47-year-old woman and 8-year-old child. Last week a 34-year-old man was charged with two counts of aggravated assault and one count of throw missile. In a statement, Victoria Police said the victims “weren’t physically injured, and the incident was reported to police the following day.” The Seaford man was charged on summons to face Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 18 March 2027.
Police urge caution after deadly month VICTORIA Police are urging caution on the roads after a “horror month” of fatalities. 40 people died on Victorian roads in September, up from 28 in September of 2025. Among them was an 83-year-old Frankston South woman killed in an alleged hit-run. Victoria Police road policing operations and investigations division, Supt Michael Kelly, said police would focus on protecting children with school holidays now at the end. “With kids heading back to school, we want everyone to take extra care when travelling around school zones. We have a collective responsibility to ensure kids are protected,” he
said. “Each of us needs to do all we can to make sure children are safe around roads, particularly when travelling to and from school. For motorists, this means slowing down and being more alert around schools. “Police will be highly visible around school zones to ensure everyone is adhering to the reduced speed limits. Police regularly enforce in school zones and are on the lookout for a range of offences, including speeding, using a mobile device while driving and failing to stop at a pedestrian crossing. “In addition to enforcement, education is essential and we encourage all parents, carers and teachers to talk to children about pedestrian safety. Police are also regularly engaging with schools and talking to students in classrooms on a range of topics, including road safety.”
Drug trafficking charges laid TWO people have been arrested in relation to alleged drug trafficking across the Kingston and Bayside municipalities. Police raided a home on Chelsea Road in Chelsea last Tuesday, 6 October, and arrested a 37-year-old man and 34-year-old woman. Police allegedly seized methylamphetamine, cannabis, steroids, 1-4 Butanediol, ecstasy pills, prescription medications, a slingshot, a sword, fake driver’s licenses, equipment to produce counterfeit documents, and cash.
The Chelsea man was charged with traffick commercial quantity of methylamphetamine; traffick methylamphetamine; possess prohibited weapon (slingshot); possess prohibited weapon (sword); possess schedule 4 poison; possess Schedule 8 poison; possess drug of dependence – 1-4 Butanediol; possess methylamphetamine; possess ecstasy; possess ketamine; possess cannabis; make false document; and deal property suspected proceeds of crime. The Dandenong North woman was released “pending further enquiries”, police say.
Getaway up in smoke TWO teenagers have been charged after allegedly setting their getaway vehicle alight an attempt to damage property. The boys, aged 16 and 17, were charged after police raids in Frankston and Kingston last week. Police believe the boys were involved in a targeted attempt to damage property on Duncan Street in Box Hill South, just after 5am on 23 September. Police allege that the pair unintentionally set their car on fire. “Once alight, the vehicle was quickly engulfed before it crashed into a parked car and the occupants fled,” a Victoria Police statement read. The teenagers were each charged with attempted criminal damage by fire; two counts of criminal damage by fire; possessing an item with intent to destroy or damage property; theft of motor car; and driving offences. They were remanded in custody to face a children’s court on 15 and 16 October.

Ban on ‘smart glasses’ considered Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council is considering new measures to ban the use of “smart glasses” recording devices. At their most recent meeting, Frankston councillors voted to prepare a report assessing “council’s conditions of entry and other policies to ban the use of smart glasses at council’s leisure centres and all council-run childcare centres and playgrounds, subject to any necessary carve outs for deaf, low vision or disabled users.” Councillors also voted to advocate to the federal government for “updates to the Privacy Act to ensure it is fit for purpose and able to respond to the risks of new wearable technology, and for a temporary ban on smart glasses imports until Australia’s privacy and data collection laws are updated to better protect our communities.” Frankston mayor Cr Sue Baker said that the privacy risks associated with smart glasses needed to be considered. “Technology is changing quickly and our approach to privacy and safety needs to keep pace. Smart glasses have some incredibly useful applications, but their ability to record discreetly understandably raises concerns, particularly in places where children and families spend time,” she said. “We want people using our facilities to feel safe and comfortable, and to know that their privacy is being taken seriously.” Filming is currently prohibited at
council-owned childcare centres and maternal and child and health centres. Filming restrictions are also in place at Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre, Pines Forest Aquatic Centre, Frankston Skate Park, and Centenary Park Golf Course. Cr Baker said “we’re not starting from scratch. What we’re doing now is asking whether our broader policies and conditions of entry are keeping pace with technology that’s developing very quickly.” “It’s important that we act early and thoughtfully rather than wait for a problem to occur,” Cr Baker said. “Councils can set reasonable conditions for the facilities we manage, but the bigger questions around privacy, data collection and rapidly changing technology need a national response. We want to see privacy laws that are fit for purpose and give the community confidence as these technologies become more widely available.” The matter is expected to return to council for further consideration by the end of this year.
NEW guidelines may soon be implemented to ban smart glasses at Frankston Council-owned facilities such as PARC. Picture: Supplied

Peninsula Link works delayed again Raia Flinos raia@baysidenews.com.au COMPLETION of works on Peninsula Link has been pushed out again. The Minister for Roads and Road Safety, Paul Hamer, confirmed the latest anticipated completion date for the final stage of roadworks on Peninsula Link is March 2027. Nepean MP Anthony Marsh asked for the scheduled completion date of the works in parliament on 13 August. In response, Hamer said the scheduling of the work will depend on a number of factors, including weather, resources, and other road works. “At this stage, the latest anticipated date of completion is March 2027,” said Hamer. “Closures will be scheduled in a way that minimises impact on road users and will not take place during the peak school holiday period.” The final stage of works includes placement of final pavement surface and line marking between Moorooduc Hwy and Bungower Rd heading northbound. All traffic will be diverted off the freeway at Moorooduc Hwy while the final stage is completed. Peninsula Link is operated and managed by Service Stream Limited on behalf of Southern Way, a private sector operator. According to the Service Stream website, the exact dates for the completion of this final stage are listed
as “TBA”, but there is a northbound closure planned for February 2027. The state-funded works first began in July 2025 and have since caused months of disruption for motorists. Marsh said peninsula residents have had enough. “In March we were told these works would be finished by 18 December,” said Marsh. “Now we find out they could drag on until the end of March next year.” Works were paused for the summer of 2025-26, with speed limits remaining at 80 kmph for months (“Peninsula link to stay slow for summer”, The News, 16/12/26). The peninsula is now heading into another summer with more closures and uncertainty. “That means more disruption for families, workers, tradies and visitors, and more pressure on the local businesses that rely on our busiest time of year,” said Marsh. In April, works were paused for a further two months as the road had to reopen without the final surface layer due to low temperatures (“Two month partial closure for Peninsula Link”, The News 13/04/26). “At one point the works were paused, the speed limit was dropped from 100kmph to 80kmph and motorists were literally being warned by signs that the road was ‘SLIPPERY WHEN WET’, heading into the wettest part of the year,” said Marsh. “You couldn’t make it up.” Marsh said the community deserves safe, reliable roads.

WORRIED ABOUT BILLS OR DEBT?
FREE face-to-face help in Frankston
BRING YOUR BILLS Tue 20 October 10.30am – 3.00pm TEAM members Karan (behind desk) and Azar with an event attendee. Photo: Supplied
Free financial help comes to Frankston PEOPLE struggling with bills and debt often try to manage on their own until financial pressure becomes overwhelming, according to South East Community Links. The organisation is bringing its Bring Your Bills event to Frankston Arts Centre on Tuesday 20 October, giving residents free, face-toface access to a range of services in one place. Data from previous Bring Your Bills events shows 73 per cent of attendees were seeking help for the first time, while 74 per cent had never contacted their provider about their debt. South East Community Links Head of Cost of Living, Mark Stilve, said uncertainty about where to start could stop people seeking help early. “Financial problems rarely arrive one at a time. Someone might be worried about an energy bill, but they may also be struggling with
rent, a fine or another debt,” Mr Stilve said. “When people are already stressed, being told to make five different phone calls or navigate multiple systems can be enough to put them off seeking help altogether.” Bring Your Bills brings financial counsellors, banks, energy and water retailers, phone companies, Centrelink, legal services, ombudsman schemes and community organisations together under one roof. “The idea is simple: bring whatever bills, letters or paperwork you have and talk to someone face-to-face,” Mr Stilve said. “You don’t need to know exactly what service you need before you walk through the door.” The free and confidential event runs 10.30am– 3pm at Frankston Arts Centre, 27–37 Davey Street. No appointment or referral is required. More information: byb.org.au

THE MATTHEW Flinders statue in Mornington Park has been stolen with police investigating the crime. The bronze statue, which was lopped at the ankles, was first noticed missing on Tuesday 6 October. A statement released by Victorian Police spokesperson Kathryn Muffett said: “Police are investigating the theft and criminal damage of a statue from a park in Mornington.” “It is understood unknown offenders stole part of the monument of Matthew Flinders on Schnapper Point Drive. “Officers are investigating when the statue was stolen.” Mornington Peninsula Shire deputy mayor Cr Paul Pingiaro says the council condemns vandalism and theft of any kind. “This damage to a community asset is unacceptable,” said Pingiaro. Mornington MP Chris Crewther took to social media to condemn the theft and said he hopes whoever has stolen the statue is caught quickly. Crewther has also said if elected the Liberal Party will introduce new penalties for damage on war memorials and cultural sites. “The Liberals already committed, several months ago, to better protect war memorials and cultural sites if elected to government, with pen-
alties up to 10 years jail and forcing perpetrators to cover the cost of repairing the damage,” said Crewther. “The destruction and defacing of our history and heritage has to stop.” The statue of Matthew Flinders was commissioned by the Shire of Mornington in 1987 to commemorate Australia’s bicentenary in 1988. The sculptor, Marc Clark, completed several well-known statues in Melbourne, including one of Captain James Cook in Fitzroy Gardens. Clark died in September 2021 aged 97. Matthew Flinders was a famous British navigator and cartographer who led the first recorded circumnavigation of mainland Australia between 1801 and 1803. Flinders first docked his ship near Mornington in April 1802 and along with his travelling party was the first to make the trek to the top of Arthur’s Seat. Flinders died in 1814 and the location of his grave became unknown during the 19th century until it was discovered in January 2019 underneath Euston railway station in London. The federal seat of Flinders was named in his honour. The investigations remains ongoing. Police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident, has dashcam /CCTV footage or information to contact crime stoppers on 1800 33 000 or submit a confidential report online at www.crimestoppers.com.au.

SAM PANG TONIGHT
CRIME NIGHT!
TEN, 8.40pm
ABC TV, 9pm
When Sam Pang Tonight landed on the box in March 2025, the tonightshow format had been absent from Aussie screens for over a decade, and despite host Sam Pang’s (pictured) undeniable charm, it seemed like a risky bet for Network 10. It’s a gamble that has well and truly paid off: just over 18 months later, the show is a ratings hit and Pang is a Gold Logie winner. Now, the most popular personality on Australian television returns for a third season of this star-studded success story. Pang is sticking to the winning formula for this eight-episode excursion, with a witty weekly monologue, candid celebrity interviews, and the ever-chaotic Wheel of Segments back in the mix.
Combining the talents of criminologists and comedians, this insightful and entertaining series hosted by Julia Zemiro (pictured) has carved its own niche in the panel show genre. While the experts provide the facts and explain the psychology behind Australia’s most famous crimes, the comedians ask those questions we’re all dying to know. This week, the panel investigates the world of cults – from the bizarre to the disturbing, and even deadly. Professor Danielle Reynald and Dr David Bartlett detail the isolation tactics of these organisations and the extraordinary influence leaders can exert over their followers, while Scout Boxall and Alex Lee ponder the levels of commitment required to be part of a cult.

Just eight years old when she made her television debut as a contestant on Young Talent Time in 1976, incomparable vocalist Tina Arena (pictured) is celebrating 50 years in the music industry with this intimate and honest documentary. Arena reflects on her life in two separate, interwoven interviews – one as Tina, the star, and one as her private self: the woman her family still calls Pina. From a traditional Italian upbringing in suburban Melbourne to achieving ’90s pop perfection and finding success performing in Europe, Arena and those closest to her – sisters Nancy and Silvana, her late mentor Johnny Young and admirers including Céline Dion and Jessica Mauboy – recount an incredible career.

Springtime pollen and your pets by RSPCA Victoria
RSPCA Victoria is calling on pet owners to protect their furry friends from allergies ahead of a predicted warm, dry spring and summer. RSPCA Victoria Director of Veterinary Services Dr Melissa Meehan said people often don’t realise their pets can have allergic reactions just like their owners. “Your pets are breathing the same air as you,” Dr Meehan said. “This means they’re inhaling the same pollen, dust, and spores we are, and they can also have allergic reactions making them uncomfortable. “Allergic reactions can lead to behavioural problems or develop into secondary infections, and these can be potentially deadly if not treated in time. “Luckily, protecting our pets can be as simple as wiping their fur with a damp cloth to remove any allergens on their coat, and reducing their outdoor time on days with a high pollen count.” Some dog breeds are more prone to allergies, including Dalmatians, Labrador Retrievers, Boxers, Pugs, Golden Retrievers, West High-
land Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Lhasa Apso, and Shih Tzus. Dr Meehan also urged animal lovers to consider the potential impact of a severe allergic reaction on their pets. “Bee and wasp stings are an under-recognised risk to pets more common this time of year,” Dr Meehan added. “If your dog tries to eat a stinging insect, or is stung on the neck, there is a possibility of an anaphylactic reaction, or even localised swelling that can severely impact their breathing. “If this, occurs it’s vital you seek veterinary treatment immediately.” Signs of an allergic reaction in your pet can include: • Scratching or licking their fur (because they’re itchy), • Weepy eyes, • Runny nose, • Trouble breathing, • Asthma symptoms, Go to rspcavic.org/learn/pet-health and learn more about your pet’s health and allergies.
Explore Kingston’s beaches with your pups this summer! Did you know Kingston’s beaches are dog-friendly? Access hours for dogs vary at beaches across Kingston, but your furry friends can have fun in the sun on our foreshore too! You can take your dogs to the Mentone foreshore (Charman Rd to Plummer Rd) for 24hr off-leash play all year around. Other beaches offer varied access: Dogs are allowed off-leash on the sand between sunrise and 10am, are not permitted 10am-7.30pm, then allowed on-leash 7.30pm-sunrise.

The global movement towards more “naturepositive” golf, including integrated pest management and reduced synthetic chemical use, even rewilding, is helping to combat biodiversity loss. The challenge is to keep the birdies on the scorecard and the biodiversity in the rough, without requiring golfers to wear helmets at morning tea. Maggie Cowling, Coburg North
Plover confusion
Picture: Gary Sissons
It rained on their parade WITH mixed feelings, I set off for the Welcome to Country and smoking ceremony that was supposed to celebrate the re-opening of Groves Reserve following the disastrous clear-felling of the Council conservation reserve with its 180-year-old Coast Banksia trees last year. Not that the Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP) or the State Government it represents gave the opening much publicity. I heard from one of the historical society members who provided a wonderful display of historic photos at the new station entrance. An aerial pic from 1929 shows Groves Reserve as a dense forest of now rare Coast Banksia Woodland. Council paid $5 million in 2020 for a patch of Coast Banksia Woodland with one old banksia in Chelsea. State Government, via its proxies the LXRP and their contractor Acciona, clear-felled that last piece of remnant CBW with at least 31 old banksias last year as part of their LXR project, apparently because they needed somewhere to park their heavy vehicles. We, the residents who attended every faux consultation the LXRP held, had a day’s notice of the destruction when one of us noticed chalk H (for habitat) markings on the ancient trees, which were grubbed out in the ensuing weeks, as a small group of us held a vigil in the hope one of our five local government ministers might do something to stop the massacre. I personally spoke with Planning Minister Kilkenny, who seemed shocked and said ‘Leave it with me,’ but the Ministers just sent our emails to each other. Local MP Tim Richardson falsely defended the destruction in parliament as necessary for the LXR. So I stood with a small group among the concrete paths and kitsch ornamental plantings with which LXRP says it has ‘revitalised’ this ‘native woodland.’ I waited in hope the smoking ceremony would be a healing experience and perhaps we could help to restore the reserve when it is handed back to Council in a year or so. The LXRP couldn’t even replant it with Coastal Banksias: it has planted Banksia Marginata seedlings, instead of the Coastal Banksia Integrifolia. One of us had discovered the ceremony had been moved to the new Mordialloc Station so most of us headed off down the concrete path to the station. While I waited for my daughter to come back with cappuccinos, an LXRP workman in high vis orange turned up belatedly, to tell us the ceremony had been cancelled because rain was forecast. A good indication of how much this government and its developer proxies care about our community and our environment. Rosemary West, Edithvale
No thanks VOPAK
Credit and thanks to local resident Marteen Koster and the Mornington Peninsula News for drawing attention to the risky plan to have a foreign-owned regasification plant in Port Phillip Bay (“Campaign to keep floating regasification plant out of the bay”, The News, 6/10/26).
PAGE 14
Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News
A Dutch multinational company spewing chlorinated discharge into the bay we love? No thank you. Thousands of Victorians are rightly opposing this proposal on health and environmental grounds, but the regasification plant would also be contributing climate pollution to our atmosphere. This sort of dirty project has no place in our vision for an ecologically stable and clean energy future. Amy Hiller, Kew
Lesson not learnt
The $250m Crib Point LNG import terminal near Hastings was stopped in March 2021, when the Victorian government rejected AGL’s proposal. The decision followed intense community opposition and a three-year environmental assessment, which concluded the plant’s chlorinated wastewater discharge would cause unacceptable damage to Western Port’s protected Ramsar wetlands (“State terminates AGL’s gas import plan”, The News, 31/3/21). So it was surprising to read that a similar project, also releasing chlorinated water, is now being proposed in Port Phillip Bay (“Campaign to keep floating regasification plant out of the bay”, The News, 6/10/26). Further investigation reveals that VOPAK’s proposed floating terminal would be moored within the outer marine boundaries of the Port Phillip (Western Shoreline) and Bellarine Peninsula Ramsar site. Its proposed subsea pipeline would also cross the Western Treatment Plant, itself part of this internationally significant wetland. The Western Treatment Plant supports more than 295 bird species and can provide habitat for up to 120,000 waterfowl. The Ramsar site also provides habitat for numerous nationally and internationally listed threatened species, including the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot. The irony is hard to miss: a project rejected to protect one Ramsar wetland is now being proposed within another. Have we learned nothing from Crib Point? Ray Peck, Hawthorn
Golf a dangeous sport?
Anne Kruger’s description of the interrupted Mornington Golf Club morning tea was a good read (“Pesky plovers”, Letters, 6/10/26). The Mornington Peninsula is fortunate to host eleven birds in the plover (Charadriidae) family, and the “airborne hooligans” at morning tea were almost certainly Masked Lapwings, previously called Spur-winged Plovers, common in our parks, paddocks and urban areas. Unlike the smaller Hooded Plovers struggling to survive on our beaches, Masked Lapwings are thriving, helped by human modification of the landscape creating millions of hectares of their preferred open habitat. Golf is clearly a hazardous sport in Australia, whether dodging emus in Dunkeld, chipping over crocodiles in Cairns or managing Masked Lapwings in Mornington. But golf courses are
14 October 2026
Regarding the recent debate about hooded plovers - it’s important not to confuse them with masked lapwings. Hoodies are shy, retiring little birds, who are unfortunately becoming rare. Masked lapwings are the protective, aggressive, dive bombing variety. Jackie Tritt, Balnarring
Who checks the checkers?
I’m writing this letter to express my concern over the now universal use of pencils instead of pens for voters to fill out ballot papers. It’s nit rocket science to figure out that pencil marks can easily be rubbed out resulting in a skewed result. Am I the only one thinking this? J. Cox, Mornington
Golden arches
So there I was at the Dromana BP service station, on a balmy spring day, patiently waiting to pay for fuel while four small children debated their choice and distribution of ice creams. Always affable, my thoughts were only of the charm of children, and the good natured patience of the crowd around me. On approaching the register, I casually remarked that the proposed construction of the McDonalds landmark had not progressed beyond the demolition stage. “Oh yes,” I was told. “We didn’t want to inconvenience people over the Christmas period”. Unlikely as it seems, I was struck dumb in disbelief. The perils of this development have been well documented. From the devious presentation of a ‘traffic survey’ taken during the Covid lockdown, to the complete disregard for the welfare of residents, this whole process has been a farce. Has the penny finally dropped that this overdevelopment may not after all be a golden goose resting beneath golden arches? Or have the obvious limitations of this confined site finally become apparent to even its most optimistic supporter? I wait in bewildered awe to see the outcome of a conflict between the welfare of a community, and the greed of a developer. Go well Dromana people. May we still have a happy ending. Mike Wilton, Safety Beach
Kindness of heart
A few weeks ago my wife and I dined out at a McCrae restaurant, to celebrate her birthday. Comfortable seating for two and a good position in the room, followed by a lovely meal. We sat alongside a young couple and conversation soon flowed. They had been together for 13 years and we married for 59 years. Topics covered were about meeting of both couples, ours being in New Guinea in 1962. This surprised our young friends and they were keen to learn more. We were so impressed with their interest and we found out about them as well. Unfortunately they had to leave early and we were left to finish our meal but still talked about what a lovely young couple they were. To make the night even more stunning was to learn that the young couple had already paid for our fixed price meal! We were so surprised and rather embarrassed by this show of kindness. The staff were aware of what had happened and explained what appears to be a custom for someone to forward-pay for another’s expense. The sad part was that we could not thank our benefactors for their generosity in person. We would love to reciprocate and continue our common interests. It goes to show that there are still some genuine and lovely people in our area and we wish them well. Len Gregory, Safety Beach

Here comes the (October) Sun? Cost of living; don’t they want to work? As a part time smoker on a basic pension I manage on $600 a week, minus a Gold Coast Winter visit?... Clearly, AI, artificial intelligence, those in favour or against, the road to wisdom (don’t laugh), littered with potholes, significant, insignificant, you choose? Unsure exactly who can choose, knowing some 70% of those able to choose do NOTHING, as in the too hard basketful (some) a simple lifestyle (others). Zombies (sheep) or control, the difference for now, answer: Very little... Anthony Marsh MP Liberal for Nepean, campaign sign front of my property? Top marks for comedy? Still, he’s a Sorrento enthusiast, a keen coffee gentleman (merlo coffee roasters?) and we all know how those Sorrento sheep vote... The past 30 years, an intention to write a book, upmarket Carter Brown, sometimes called a novel. Always too busy, a 12-24 months job. I had a book of notes on it, to the blue rubbish bin, lack of raison debtre, thus, Barley Charley continues, subject to the goodwill of one, two, occasionally THREE readers, my severe hands tremor and shonky brain apparatus in working order, on a “good” day?... Question: Is there a big brother lurking at the Bendigo Bank, City Branch? As mentioned I was hacked, eventually re-issued, Australian transactions ONLY, no reason given, NOT a local Rye decision. Likely a more satisfying answer if I was talking to my pussy cat. I could write to our genial PM Albanese, but he would pass it on to a friend, strangely called a “Public Servant” whose claim to fame can be described, accurately, as a master of NFA (No Further Action)... And AFL football, gone, in favour of our super brainy millionaires playing for Cricket Australia. It follows therefore, I must remain on Planet Earth until at least the first Saturday come October 2027, and Lochie Neale, Jesse Hogan, Daicos & Daicos, Jordy De Goey. Sadly, no Lachie Sullivan no Bobby Hill... Finally, Princess Pauline (Hanson). I find it satisfying to ignore the lady’s various diatribes, (ditto overseas billionaires) other than her one big TICK, namely her focus on law and order; a lay-down misere?... Finally (for now?) Woolies “really really” home insurance; greed is good? Positivity forever, or dreaming? Cliff Ellen, Rye
100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Frankston High School building under construction Compiled by Cameron McCullough The first storey of the brick structure is almost complete, and is easily picked out from Young and Wells streets, as it appears above the railway coal stage. Such fine progress is being made that the bulk of the work will be completed by Xmas time. The wooden building for manual and domestic arts has had a mushroom growth, the frame work and outer walls are now finished and the roof will go on in a day or two. There has been very little lost time through bad weather, the last heavy rains causing the men to knock off for a few hours only. The oval is now much improved on account of the cutting and rolling that has been done. If the council do the necessary top-dressing and continue the cutting and rolling, this playing field will be a credit to the district. Several working bees have cleared a fair area for the junior oval. Mr. Sorrell had a group of boys from the Elementary school working there on Friday, October 1, and Mr. Bishop supervised a team of High school boys on the following Wednesday. When the timber is cleared it will be seen that the amount of levelling to be done is not very considerable, and it would be a decided advantage to proceed with it straight away. The boys and girls are getting into training for their annual sports meetings which will take place before the end of this month. The school athletic meeting will be held on Wednesday, 20th inst., in the Frankston park when there will be keen competition between the three “houses” for supremacy in athletics.
The “houses” are named after three creeks of the district “Kananook”, “Narrangalling” and “Eumemering” and their colors are navy, brown and gold. The sports meeting is important, as it decides the points in athletics to be added to the total to date in all sports. The house with the highest aggregate in December has the privilege of holding the “Maxwell” cup for a year. *** At the sitting of the local Court of Petty Sessions on Tuesday, a lengthy list of cases was dealt with. The Bench was occupied by Mr. McNamara, P.M., and Messrs. Brown, Gray, Marsh and Grant, J.’sP. Wm. Higgs was charged with having on August 15 driven an unregistered motor car on Mornington road. Constable Anderson said that the car had no number in front. The number 70 was on the rear of the car. Defendant told him that he had applied for registration, but he (Constable Anderson) had since ascertained that the car was not registered on August 15, and had not been registered since. A fine of £2 was imposed. J. Lee, who pleaded guilty to a charge of having driven a car without a rear light, explained that the light was on when he went out and was also alight when he reached home. When the constable interviewed him next day he examined the rear light and found that a defective connection was causing a make and break in the circuit. A penalty of 10/- was recorded. P. J. Hatwell, Chas. Jones, Robt. Collo, Arthur Perrier, Arthur Rugden and Geo. Towers, all charged with having driven on the wrong side of Bay street, were each fined £2 or fourteen
days’ imprisonment. Three charges were preferred against Frank Townsend. For driving on the wrong side of Bay street a penalty of £2 was imposed, in default 14 days’ imprisonment. A similar penalty for driving an unregistered motor cycle, and a like amount for having ridden a motor cycle without a licence. In the case of Beatrice Mary Garrood v. Henry Jesse Garrood, defendant was ordered to pay 35/- per week for the maintenance of plaintiff. Geo. Bennett, inspector under the Health Act, proceeded against J. R. Sawyer for having exposed for sale “frys” affected by hydatids. Mr. Utber, who appeared for the defendant, who did not attend, explained that owing to the unavoidable absence of defendant and the only witness for the defence, he had no case to present. The case for the prosecution was that on August 17, Inspector Bennett, accompanied by Senior-Constable Elliott, entered defendant’s butcher’s shop in Playne street and asked the shop attendant if he had any “frys” for sale. On a reply in the affirmative being given, he examined several “frys” hanging in the shop and found them to be affected by hydatids. Another also affected was found in the cool chamber. It was explained that the, “frys”, although for sale, were not intended for human consumption, but were sold as dogs’ meat. A fine of £5 with 15/- costs was inflicted. A good deal of interest centered in the case of Chitty v. Mason, in which dispute regarding the commission

charged on the sale of a house and land by Mr. W. P. Mason on behalf of Mr. P. Chitty, was aired. The case for plaintiff rested on whether defendant was entitled to the £50 which he had retained from the sale as commission, it being contended that the land and dwelling was suburban and not a country property. Under the former scale the commission would have been only £31/5/-. After hearing a large number of witnesses, a majority of the Bench found for defendant, the P.M. disagreeing with the verdict. £3/3/ costs were allowed. *** Fruitgrowers Jubilant - News packing case. No bruised fruit A new fruit packing case has been designed, patented, and made available to Australian fruitgrowers and exporters. Captain Hannan, who is attached to the shipping department of Dalgety & Co. Ltd., Melbourne, has furnished us with particulars of the patent HannianCloke “Air Free Case”. This case has been constructed to prevent fruit – particularly apples and oranges – from being bruised in transit during its many handlings at the packing shed, cool store, loading and unloading by rail, loading, stowing, and unloading from ship, and then all this handling over again from ship to buyer; to ensure proper ventilation and distribution of air right through the fruit wherever stacked, in shed, cool store, wharf or ship. *** Hastings Roads To the Editor Sir, I would crave a little space in your journal to point out the disgrace-
ful condition of some of the roads at Hastings, particularly that of the Cemetery road. Quite recently I attended a funeral there, and the road from where the funeral started to the nearest metal road, though only a few chains in length, and almost in the township area, was simply appalling. Further on towards the cemetery, it was, if possible, worse. It is a great shame that people suffering under the pain of bereavement should have their feelings further harrowed by the dread of the cortege being unable to get through. I do not know who is responsible for the disgraceful state of the cemetery, but whoever is should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. Hence my question: How long is the advancement of the town to be retarded, by conditions such as the foregoing? S Yours, etc., “PROGRESS.” Hastings, 8/10/26. *** Personal Mr. C. J. Pope, of Playne street, this week received a letter front Mr. C. Apthorpe in which the writer states that he expects to be returning from England about the middle of November. Mrs. Bowes, senr., has returned to Frankston after several months sojourn in Sydney. Constable Edwards, who was seriously injured in the police patrol smash and is still in hospital, is a son of Mr. and Mrs. P. Edwards, Frankston road. *** From the Pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 15 October 1926

MPCA mens gets underway after last week’s washout MPCA MENS
By Cameron McCullough AFTER torrential rain caused the cancellation of all men’s first round games last week, play finally got underway on Saturday (10 October) for the Mornington Peninsula Cricket Association’s 2026/27 mens’ season.
PROVINCIAL
IN Provincial, Baden Powell, Langwarrin, Pines and Old Peninsula all had wins, putting them at the top of the table. Baden Powell have the top spot after easily accounting for Dromana. Baden Powell batted first and managed to put on an impressive 8/229 in their 40 overs. Opener Luke Long shone for Baden Powell with 67 runs off 87 balls. His innings was only bettered by Dale Elmi who scored 76 off 58. In response, Dromana’s chase didn’t start as planned, with opener Beau Anthony out for a golden duck. The other opener, Bobby Wilson, made 19. Kierran Voelkl top scored for Dromana with 43 off 58, and off-season recruit Sulakshan Mendisque managed 31 off 44. In the end, it wasn’t enough and Dromana fell 84 runs short with one wicket in hand when they ran out of overs. A swashbuckling century by Langwarrin’s Jack Marget set his side up for a win against Mornington. Marget stayed out there the entire innings, and scored 113 off 117 balls. His score was the lions-share his side’s 198 total, helped along by Taylor Smith on 24 not out. They ran out of overs with the loss of just three wickets, and leaving Mornington a considerable chase. The Bulldogs got off to a strong start with both their openers standing up. Hayden Cummings managed 39 off 47 balls and Josh Small 28 off 41. Then came a period of low scores before the tail wagged. It was not enough, though, and Mornington ran out of batters in the 39th over 41 runs short. The final figures were Langwarrin 3/198 beating Mornington on 10/157. Pines got over the line against Red Hill with a couple of overs and five wickets to spare. Red Hill batted first and managed to get to 190 in their allotted overs with one wicket in hand. Luke Robertson top scored for his side with 53 and Tom Collett was not far behind on 48 not out. Pines got off to a shaky start with both openers falling early. Number three batsman, Jagan Vijayakumar, came to the crease and stayed the rest of the innings scoring a match-defining 91 runs off 103 balls, and helping his side secure the win. Old Peninsula got across the line against Sorrento on Saturday, but it was a close call. Old Peninsula batted first and only a few of their batters stood up. Opener Charlie Collopy scored 25 runs, Wade Pelzer 31, and Neil Johnson 47 not out. They finished their overs at 9/178. Sorrento’s batting was inconsistent, with some batters performing well and others underperforming. Corey Harris managed 23, and Liam O’Connor 44. Dimitri Mascarenhas and Oliver Hanrahan were both 35 not out when the Sharks ran out of overs just four runs short, and with three wickets in hand

PENINSULA
IN Peninsula division, Seaford Cricket Club are on the top of the ladder after a strong win over Heatherhill. Seaford batted first with the first seven batters getting into double figures before the lower end batters struggled. Dil Pageni was a star with 60 runs for his side. Archee Quelch was the highest scorer for Heatherhill, managing 52 runs, but it wasn’t enough. Heatherhill ran out of batters in the 39th over, still 50 runs short of the required total. Balnarring had an easy win over Mt Eliza on Saturday. They got off to a strong start with openers Darcy Warmbrunn and Jackson Hannah putting on 99 runs between them. But Xavier Warmbrunn was the star, putting on 85 runs in just 65 balls. At the end of their 40 overs they were 5/226 and Mt Eliza were facing a difficult task. Mt Eliza opener Jack Harris was run out for a duck without facing a single ball, and Ravindu Kodithuwakku was out for 11 off 13 balls. The middle order settled and Pawan Dias Edirisinghe scored 32 off 63 and Mat Walker 36 off 42. But the runs were never there, and at the end of 40 overs, while still having two wickets in hand, Mt Eliza were still 81 runs short of Balnarring’s target. And newly promoted into Peninsula Division, Crib Point grabbed their first win against Long Island, and they did it with ease. Long Island batted first and ran out of batters after 36 overs. They never managed to fire, and only one batsman, Michael Burke, got established managing 37 off 53 balls. Their final score was 108. In response, the Magpies walked it
in in the 29th over, but not without some issues. Of the eight batters that took the crease, three went out for ducks and two made just two runs each. It was up to the other three to bring it home. Opener Spencer Wilton scored 29 off 43 balls, Blake Hogan-Keogh scored 29 not out off 72 and Angus Cripps 30 runs off 30 balls. Crib Point’s final stats were 6/109. And last year’s runners up, Somerville, had an easy win over Rosebud. Somerville batted first and batted out the full 40 overs with the loss of just six wickets. Kiefer Peries scored 36 off 71, Connor Smith and impressive 51 off 33, and the highest score was made by Nick Mann with 72 off 72. The Eagle finished up with a score for Rosebud to chase of 214. Rosebud had a few good starts. Will Jewell scored 25, captain Patrick Nagel 24 off 16, and Scott Hayes managed 55 off 80. But among those highlights were quite a few single digit scores, and when the 40 overs were up, they were still 35 runs short.

CARRUM Downs got their 2026/27 season off to a good start with a win over Flinders. Flinders batted first, and despite a duck for opener Max Wilkinson had a consistent showing. In fact, the next three batters scored 23 runs each before Charlie Beggs took to the crease to score 33 not out. At the end of their 40 overs, they still had four wickets in hand but had only managed to put 143 runs on the board. In response, Carrum Downs put in a consistent performance to clinch the win. Mustafa Nader scored a firebrand 35
off 20 balls. Nathan Harford scored 37 off 41. They ended up with figures of 6/147 at the end of the 32 over. Newly relegated Moorooduc had a strong win over Boneo at Dallas Brooks Reserve. The Ducks batted first, and managed to put 146 on the board during their 40 overs with the loss of just five wickets. Captain Liam Walsh shone for Moorooduc with a top score for his team of 49 runs. In response, Boneo struggled to find consistence. Only three players managed to get into the 20s, with Adam Ciavarella top scoring with 28. In the end, they ran out of batters at the end of the 38th over, still 15 runs short. Seaford Tigers managed a tight win over Rye. Rye batted first and struggled with consistency. Only four players got into double figures with Sashika Sushantha Gunathunga the highlight with 36 runs off 35 balls. They batted out their allotted 40 overs and ended up with figures of 9/145. In response, Jack Brooking high scored for Seaford Tigers with 46 off 84. The team got past Rye’s total in the 39th over with six wickets in hand. Newly promoted Tyabb didn’t have the best start to their District Division tenure, notching a loss to Carrum. Tyabb batted first and struggled with only three batters getting into double figures. Tyler and Jayden Regan were the only ones to make a meaningful impact with 45 and 58 runs respectively. They ran out of batters in the 34th over with 145 on the board. Carrum got off to a shaky start with captain Robert Hearn going out for a duck and the other opener, Jake D’Atri, scoring just 11 runs. The middle order steadied with Liam Hulett scoring 34 off 57 before Ethan Chittick scored 56 runs off 89 balls and Dylan Ridgway 22 off 37. Both not out. They snuck past Tyabb’s total in the 39th over with four wickets still in hand.
SUB DISTRICT
SKYE and Mt Martha batted out a thrilling tie on Saturday. Mt Martha batted first with mixed results for the top order. William Fitzgerald went out for a duck but fellow opener Travis French went on to make 57. Robert Willis made 44 and Steven Lindsay 26 not out on the way to 9/165 when they ran out of overs. In response, Skye opener Pawan Thind scored 26 and a couple of the other top order players stood up, including Trav Campbell who scored 48 for his side. The tail struggled a little, but they finished on a dead heat when they ran out of overs. Frankston YCW are sitting on the top of the Sub Division table after their win against Tootgarook. The Stonecats batted first and put on 174 runs with three wickets still in hand after batting out their 40 overs. Captain Levi Mcloughlin-Dore top scored for his side with 46. Tootgarook started their chase well with 36, 20, 67 and 10 from the top four batters. Then it all came crashing down without another batter getting into
double figures. Tootgarook ran out of batters in the 36th inning, still 20 runs short of the total. Baxter smashed Ballam Park in a low scoring affair. Ballam Park batted first and had a dreadful innings with only two batters making it out of single figures with Bradley Jones scoring 12 and Nicholas Jones scoring 11. Scattered among their scoresheet were five ducks, two of them golden, as they headed back to the changerooms all out for just 48 after 18 overs. Baxter had no trouble in response, getting to the total with the loss of a single wicket at the beginning of the ninth over. Joe Rule top scored for the side with 27 runs off 16 balls. Pearcedale’s home ground advantage wasn’t enough for them to get a win against Delacombe Park. Pearcedale batted first and struggled terribly but for two batters. There were four ducks, and another five batters didn’t make it out of single digits. Saving the innings for Pearcedale were Cooper Thornton who scored 28 and Jack Hussey who scored 58. Pearcedale managed to get to 112 in the 38th over before running out of men. In response, Delacombe Park did it easily, getting to the target in the 25th over with the loss of just three wickets. The best for them was Ben Walker who scored 37. The final tallies were Pearcedale 10/112 to Delacombe Park 3/113. Main Ridge had a bye.

THE Mornington Peninsula Cricket Association’s 2026/27 women’s Provincial Division got their second week of play in on Sunday 11 October.

Raymond retired after notching up 53 runs off 42 balls as she pushed her side to 4/114 in their 20 overs. In response, Delacombe Park struggled with five ducks on the board. Their only shining light was Zara Jolly who managed to get to 17 before being caught by Angela Dunn. Delacombe Park were all out for 34 runs in the 17th over, 80 runs short of where they needed to be. Somerville had an easy win over Crib Point. The Magpies just managed to bat out their 20 overs with a single wicket in hand and a total of 57 at the changeover. In response, Somerville walked it in without the loss of a single wicket. Openers Marlee Black and Sienna Robson scoring 29 and 19 respectively. Rye weren’t troubled by Mt Eliza in their game. Rye got to 131 with the loss of just one wicket.

In response, Red Hill didn’t fire, with three ducks and a few single digit scores. Only standing up for Red Hill were Caitlin Ingram who scored 27 and Sophie Balfour who scored 26 not out. They ran out of overs at 5/76, well short of the FWCC total. Hastings just couldn’t catch a break in their game against Frankston YCW.

Lorraine Edwards scored 14 and Courtney Price 33 for the Stonecats. Carrum Downs beat Carrum Maroon in their clash, but there wasn’t much in it. Irene Margaronis was the standout for Carrum Downs with 32 not out off 38 balls. In response, Carrum Maroon just couldn’t get the traction they needed. Only three players hit double figures, and in the end they fell seven runs
short by the time they had run out of batters. In another tight one, Flinders just got the better of Seaford Tigers. Seaford Tigers batted first and put a respectable 98 on the board in their 20 overs for the loss of just three wickets. Opener Sally Omeara top scored with 36 runs, and captain Kellie Campbell wasn’t far behind on 32. Flinders managed to pass their total in the final over thanks to an impressive 48 from Annabelle Redburn.
DISTRICT
CARRUM Navy are on top of the womens’ District Division table after their win against Seaford. Carrum batted first with nearly all the heavy lifting being done by the two openers, Jennifer Coull (38 runs) and Haylie Pedron (31 runs). The team batted out their full 20 overs to end up at 4/105. In response, Seaford struggled. Both their openers went cheaply, and while Lindsay Tucker put on 19 and Jodie
Gladstone 13, it was too little, too late. At the end of their 20 overs they were still 16 runs short of the total. Crib Point womens’ 2nds got the better of Frankston YCW. The Magpies batted first with the standout performance coming from Karina Mace who scored 49 not out. At the end of 20 overs, Crib Point had the figures of 2/114. Captain Bronwyn Curren fired for the Stonecats, and they ended their 20 overs with the loss of just a single wicket, but the runs weren’t there and they fell 23 short.

In response, Chari Morgan scored 24 for Baxter and Chloe Boyes 36, but the run-rate wasn’t there and at the end of 20 overs, despite only dropping two wickets, they were six runs short. Main Ridge beat Mt Eliza’s 2nds team.

Peninsula’s first padel club launches Raia Flinos raia@baysidenews.com.au THE peninsula’s first padel club has opened at St Andrews Beach. St Andrews Beach Padel Club is holding a soft launch during the month of October, with all court bookings free. The club will officially launch on 31 October, with free casual play, coaching sessions, and showcase tournaments available for attendees. The club was founded by actor Frank Magree, civil engineer Rob Noseda, and tennis and padel coach Pete Crozier. The three were part of the Section 1 tennis team at St Andrews before discovering padel in Bali. Magree said after learning about the sport, he noticed padel clubs started popping up around Melbourne. “We were travelling around 90 minutes to go and play, and then we just said, ‘Hang on a second, why don’t we just build our own club?’,” said Magree. St Andrews Beach Padel Club is the 39th club in Australia, and the first on the peninsula. Magree said padel is a great alternative to tennis and is easier on the body.

“We were the Section 1 team, but we were getting injured, and two of us had hip replacements, and now [padel is] going to give us another 10 years playing competitively,” said Magree. Padel is a racket sport played in doubles. The court is around two-

thirds the size of a tennis court and surrounded by glass walls that come into play. Magree said the sport is relatively easy to pick up. “It’s the kind of sport that anyone can pick up really quickly,” said Magree.
“We’ve got a lot of people who have good hand-eye coordination through tennis, but even people that aren’t coming from tennis backgrounds are having so much fun with it.” He said thanks to the underarm serve and long rallies, it’s an easy
sport to enjoy. “You’re closer together, because it’s like a three-quarter tennis court and so it’s a lot more social as well,” said Magree. “And after a rally, everyone’s having a laugh.” Magree said they have received lots of support from the community so far. “Everyone’s buzzing because we’ve built a club that we’d want to go and play at,” said Magree. “It’s not just a couple of courts; it’s a nice little clubhouse that’s going to have a liquor license, and we’ve made it quite beautiful.” Anyone is welcome to book a free session during October on Playtomic and attend the hard launch event on 31 October. “We’re going to have some of the top players in Australia coming and doing some demos,” said Magree. “Anyone can just turn up, come, have a quick hit on court, and we’ll have some music and some food and drinks.
The Scoreboard
Skelly, Kuhanez get the nod SOCCER By Craig MacKenzie JAMIE Skelly has been re-appointed head coach of Langwarrin and Dave Kuhanez is the new head coach of Baxter. The contrast between the appointments is stark. Skelly has an extensive senior coaching background and will be in charge of football matters at Lawton Park for a fourth straight season while 2027 will be Kuhanez’s senior team coaching debut. Under Skelly Langwarrin has finished no higher than ninth and has shown a resilience when confronting the prospect of relegation which has become a persistent issue. Yet Skelly summed up season 2026 in a positive fashion. “Overall we achieved what we needed to achieve which is staying in VPL1,” he said. “Ultimately we’d like to do it a lot earlier than we did this year where we left it late to get the result we wanted. “And it doesn’t get any easier in fact the league next year will be even stronger with Dandy Thunder, Green Gully and Bentleigh Greens in VPL1 as these are all clubs that have been to the top of the NPL.” Questions have been asked about Langwarrin’s ambition to reach NPL level and the club’s critics claim it would not be able to maintain such a lofty status. Not a view Skelly shares. “We definitely have ambition to play in the top league but we will never be a club that allows its ambition to rule its financial responsibilities. “If we play in the NPL it would have no impact on the club’s financial sustainability because the club only ever gives me a budget that it knows it can sustain. “It would never overextend itself to stay at that level. “Ideally we would love to build a team that would take us up without needing to bring in a whole new team in order to stay there.” Right now Skelly’s priority is a senior squad revamp and already six players have left Lawton Park. Leading scorer Alun Webb has joined Bentleigh Greens, midfielder Scott Lochhead is heading back to the NPL, goalkeeper Jonty Benfield has returned to Melbourne City, midfielder Joe Tweats was rumoured to be heading to Bentleigh Greens, Mark Deacon is looking for more senior game time while youngster Lachie Scott who spent last season recovering from an

ACL injury is returning to Queensland. Lochhead only signed a short-term deal with Langy and the club knew that he would return to the NPL at season’s end. Benfield was signed late last season as an emergency injury replacement. “We’ve been pretty aggressive in going after some key players we identified who we think can have a major impact,” Skelly said. “I’m still finalising our current squad so we can’t release the names of the new signings yet but I can tell you that they will definitely improve the squad.” There’s much more stability off the pitch with minimal changes to the club’s coaching staff. Skelly will be assisted by Adam Poole and Simon Storey with the latter brought in on a more permanent basis now that his work situation has changed. Ben Caffrey remains head coach of the U23s with Boris Ovcin and Faraz Zenoozi assisting him while Steve DuPon has moved from the under-14s to the role of under-20s head coach. At Baxter one of the last major decisions of outgoing president Bray Hodg-
kinson was to choose a head coach for next season. Baxter was relegated from State 4 South-East this year. It was head coach Billy Armour’s second season at Baxter and although he wanted to retain the job the club appointed Kuhanez. “Billy was still an option to continue with us but we notified him that we wanted to explore our options and see what was the next best step for the club to take,” Hodgkinson said. “We had a few conversations and considered a few options but ultimately the decision to appoint Dave just felt right. “It was a perfect opportunity to reward a long-serving clubman and life member who is an incredible people person and a fantastic coach.” Armour took the decision on the chin and accepted responsibility for the club’s poor year. “The buck stop with me. It’s as simple as that,” he said. “There’s no hard feelings towards Baxter as they are a good club with good people and I hope they do well next season.
“I thought I had a stronger squad than last year and I certainly didn’t expect us to end up getting relegated but I accept that I’ve had a bad coaching year.” Kuhanez is an unknown in senior team coaching circles. He coached Baxter’s thirds for nine years and the reserves for four years. He will be assisted by Phil Clinch, George Hughes and Harry Liapis. Last weekend Kuhanez was doing a C-licence coaching course and is expected to call a players’ meeting shortly. That’s when the club will be able to gauge the senior players’ reaction to his appointment. It’s not unusual for a coaching change to trigger player movement but the last thing a relegated club needs is to deal with a large player exodus. Meanwhile Luke Mulder became Somerville Eagles’ third life member at the club’s recent presentation night. The club announced Mulder’s award on its Facebook page praising his contribution to the Eagles’ cause. “Luke has done it all and more. “He defined the culture at the club in a time where it was still finding its feet.
“And he is a big reason why under his presidency this club had its most successful season winning three league titles in our seniors, our thirds and our fourths.” Mulder joins Zach Peddersen and Craig Bozelle in an exalted place in the club’s history. In other news Dylan Waugh won Seaford United’s senior best and fairest award by a point. Conor Mcfall and Alex Roberts were joint runners-up. The senior players’ player of the year was Jayden LeBron and the coaches’ award went to Jonas Harrasser. Reserves best and fairest was Andrew Mazzone and Archie Andrews was runner-up. The reserves players’ player of the year was Aodhan McLoughlan. The State 1 women’s best and fairest was Kallista Tzelios while runner-up McKenzie Brown also won the players’ player of the year award. The State 4 women’s best and fairest was Chloe Swannel and Georgie Morris was runner-up. The players’ player of the year was Stephanie White.
