Sale of Evelyn Street open space stopped Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council have backed out of a move to sell a parcel of public land on Evelyn Street to the Department of Justice. Council voted on 18 February to negotiate the sale of the land in a vote that was intended to take place behind closed doors. Councillors voted to bring that debate into the public section of the meeting. On 3 June council moved to reverse the decision to negotiate the sale of the land, voting to ensure “the Evelyn
Street site 17R and 19R-21R will not be sold and is to be retained as open space for the people of Frankston both now and into the future” and “that a report be provided at the August ordinary meeting on options for planting and landscape improvements to the Evelyn Street open space as a value added public area.” Crs Kris Bolam, Sandra Mayer, and Brian Cunial voted in favour of negotiating the sale of the land in February. They all switched sides at the 3 June meeting and voted in favour of retaining the land as open green space. Cr Mayer said “I supported [the sale] originally thinking about creating jobs
and having community services in there. We were told at a briefing there was no other suitable site, which I now question. I think this is the cheapest and easiest site.” “I went out there and I had a look at the space, it’s now sectioned off so there are no cars parked there anymore. There are a number of established trees there, there’s gum trees. The barbecue is old, but if we rehabilitate the space a bit it could be something quite special,” she said. “There wasn’t support from the community, we do need to learn from our previous decisions that we’ve made that haven’t been very popular that we
can’t undo.” Cr Steve Toms said “in the 1960s this parcel of land was given to the people of Frankston. Since then it’s been public land and in my view it should remain public land, and it should be enhanced going forward. The suggestion has come from various different residents to me that they would not like to see the last element of green space in the CAA disappear into the ether and be swallowed up by a government department.” “While Evelyn Street at this stage is not very well maintained, and there have been cars parking on it in recent times which they are not allowed to do,
Comfort SALE
it is the last green space in the CAA. It’s a fantasy to say if we put money aside and into a fund then maybe one day a council will decide to spend it. Who says a future council would actually spend it? Why replace what isn’t broke,” he said. “There is a record high vacancy rate of buildings in Frankston, why couldn’t they have gone into one of them?” Crs Glenn Aitken, Quinn McCormack, Toms, Cunial, and Mayer voted to retain the land as open space. Crs Colin Hampton, Lillian O’Connor, and Michael O’Reilly voted against it. Continued Page 5

Rewards for keeping the beach clean KEEPING Frankston’s beaches clean may already be a rewarding task for some, but on Saturday 15 June there will be rewards of a different sort on offer for keen environmentalists. The Frankston Seaside Scavenge Festival is set to take place this weekend, offering people picking up litter along the beach tokens to cash in for vouchers and goodies. The event will be hosted by Action for Dolphins, and run in conjunction with Sea Shepherd and the 3199 Frankston Beach Patrol. Hannah Tait from Action for Dolphins said “we’ve called this the Seaside Scavenge beach cleanup event, and its all about bringing together local community groups. We’re running this with Sea Shepherd and the Beach Patrol, while we’re organising it,” she said. “Attendees register in the morning to be part of the beach clean up, and then they can swap their rubbish for tokens. They can use those tokens in the festival or cash them in for vouchers for local businesses,” she said. “There’ll be a stall there raising money for shark conservation, and people will be helping clean up the beach. This is an awesome opportunity to reach audiences not engaged with plastic pollution. It’s a way to make plastic pollution a fun family event.” The Seaside Scavenge festivals have been held across the country. “Seaside Scavenge happens all across Australia, we received a grant to run them twice in Frankston over winter, we do one in Rye every summer, and we’ve done one up in Byron Bay. They happen all across the country,” Ms Tait said. Live music will be played on the day, and divers can get involved to fish out litter from in the water. Registration to take part on the day starts at 8.50am at the foreshore. More information at the Frankston Seaside Scavenge events page on Facebook or at seasidescavenge.org
Respecting seniors THE Respecting Seniors Network to be launched in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula later this month aims to prevent elder abuse. The free event is at Mornington Council Chambers, 2 Queen Street, 11am-1pm, Friday 21 June. It is open to all but an RSVP is essential. A light lunch will be provided. Aged Discrimination Commissioner Dr Kay Patterson AO will speak on why respect is important in the prevention of elder abuse and be part of the official launch of the network. Frankston Mornington Peninsula Primary Care Partnership is running the event in collaboration with local councils and organisations committed to the prevention of elder abuse. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council is a sponsor. For details and to book: Email project coordinator Marilyn Connolly at mconnolly@phcn. vic.gov.au or call 0466 799 867.
Grants open soon

APPLICATIONS will open next month for Frankston Council’s latest round of grants. The Community Grants Program is open for local clubs and not-for profit groups to help them keep up their good work. The mayor Michael O’Reilly said “Frankston City is proud to support the Community Grants Program in recognition of the significant contribution by the community to programs, projects and events in the city.” An information session will be held at the Frankston Library at 5.30pm, 19 June. “Attending the Community Grants Program information session arms you with the best possible information ahead of submitting your grant application,” Cr O’ Reilly said. “You’ll understand which grants your organisation is eligible for and what council officers are looking for in assessing applications. “Funding is available for start-up programs, operational costs, minor equipment and events.” Applications open 1 July.

Win ticked off: The AEC has officially declared Peta Murphy the new member for Dunkley. Ms Murphy (left) and AEC regional returning officer Davina D’Avila-Barr check over the results. Picture: Gary Sissons
Dunkley declared for Labor THE Australian Electoral Commission officially named Peta Murphy as the new member for Dunkley on 4 June. Ms Murphy was officially declared a member of the Australian Parliament at midday, ending the single term of outgoing MP Chris Crewther. Ms Murphy thanked the AEC and her supporters on social media. “Thank you to the AEC, who make sure that the best system
of democracy in the world works smoothly. The final result was 52.6 per cent to 47.4 per cent, with a margin of just over 5000 votes. This means we achieved a swing to Labor well in excess of the impact of the redistribution, with an average swing of 3.7 per cent across all booths,” she said. “To all of the volunteers, community groups and supporters who contributed to this result, thank you. I will work hard everyday,
at home and in Canberra, for you and every local who lives in our wonderful electorate.” Ms Murphy takes over from Liberal Chris Crewther, who was elected member for Dunkley in 2016. He visited the AEC’s Carrum Downs office to congratulate Ms Murphy on her win. Ms Murphy will move into Mr Crewther’s old office on Playne Street.

Councillors reflect on past ‘regrets’ progressing this proposal. But after listening to the public, getting the facts, and as Cr Toms said looking at the vacancy rate in the CBD, I’m now inclined to not support the proposal,” he said. “At the end of the day we’ve gone out to the public, the public has spoken, and we as a council have listened. My biggest regret as a councillor is South East Water. That was a process that I regret. I voted for that proposal and when I look back now as an individual councillor I would have approached that differently knowing what occurred. “There are facets of the St Kilda Football Club proposal that I also regret, the voodoo economics that were involved in that and the promise of jobs and economic stimulation that never occurred. I’m not going to be swayed by prognoses, I’m going to be swayed by this consultation process.” The Evelyn Street land had been used as a car park next to the police building. Vehicle access was cut off last month.
Continued from Page 1 Cr Aitken, who strongly opposed the sale of the land when it was last discussed at council, again passionately defended the “vital” need for green space. He said the land “belongs to the people of Frankston, it belongs to our citizens. It has long been part of the open space preserves of Frankston city central area.” “At this point in time we know about green space and how open areas are vital to people’s sense of ownership, place, and health. We can easily say it would be very regrettable to lose any further green space in Franskton’s town centre,” he said. Cr Bolam said at the February council meeting that selling the Evelyn Street land to the Department of Justice would create 187 jobs, which was a factor in his support of the sale. He told councillors at the 3 June meeting that he had reflected on council’s past decisions based on promises of creating jobs, and changed his mind. “I did, along with Cr Mayer, support

Award for lawyer’s work as a volunteer A LAWYER previously employed by the Peninsula Community Legal Centre has been awarded for her efforts as a volunteer. Claire Williams was presented with the Kath Neilsen Award for outstanding contribution to the centre at the recent annual volunteer and supporters appreciation dinner. The award is named after Kath Neilsen, a founder and long-term supporter of the centre. It acknowledges a volunteer who has demonstrated a superior understanding of the centre’s values and the principals of social justice; along with a reliable and respectful approach to interactions with our clients. Ms Williams was employed by the centre for six years and has since remained a volunteer. “I found my feet as a lawyer while working at PCLC. The great staff, plus a sense of belonging to a team that are working to end family violence, made the job very rewarding,” Ms Williams said. To support herself through university Ms Williams worked with people with a disability as a part-time job and gained an understanding of the difficulties faced by those with special needs. After leaving PCLC, she worked in a policy role with government and then started her own practice in Frankston - Justice Crew Legal Services. Her practice focusses on helping
clients have “a low-stress journey through the legal system”. Ms Williams says she is passionate about helping guide people with mental, physical and intellectual disabilities through the legal process. “This can involve many hours acting as a go-between; connecting clients with support services such as psychologists and family violence workers.” Ms Williams is one of 120 volunteers who enable the legal centre to run free legal advice sessions at five locations in Melbourne’s the south east. “After 40 years service to the community, the work we do ensuring access to justice for vulnerable communities, is as important today as ever,” the centre’s CEO Jackie Galloway said. “We are increasingly facing an environment where people’s human rights are being eroded and there are more and more vulnerable members of our community slipping through the safety net.” PCLC specialises in family law and family violence, fines and tenancy issues and has offices in Frankston, Rosebud and Frankston North and its lawyers provide outreach services to Chelsea and Hastings. For more information about free legal services, call 9783 3600 or visit www.pclc.org.au.

Contract awarded for next section of divisive Bay Trail Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au KINGSTON councillors have clashed again over the divisive Bay Trail, with the decision to award a contract for the next section of construction decided on a vote of five to four at last week’s council meeting. A motion at the 27 May meeting passed to hand the contract for the construction of the project between Naples Road in Mentone and Rennison Street in Parkdale to CDN Constructors Pty Ltd for a lump sum of a little over $5.1 million. A contingency allowance of $515,544 to “cover unexpected financial variations relating to the works” was also approved as part of the motion. Council’s CEO was directed to execute the contract by 29 May. Council agreed to amend a motion passed in December 2018 that stated that the contract be awarded to CDN Constructors Pty Ltd for a lump sum of $3.37 million. Following that meeting council advocated to VicRoads to not include the resurfacing of the road as part of the works. A compromise was reached where VicRoads would reimburse council up to $700,000 for those works. Councillors Georgina Oxley, Rosemary West, David Eden, Steve Staikos, and Tamara Barth voted in favour, while Crs Tamsin Bearsley, Geoff Gledhill, George Hua, and Ron Brownlees voted against. The mayor Georgina Oxley said “VicRoads had originally requested that the city to spend approximately $1.4 million on resurfacing works but we didn’t believe it was the most appropriate use of rate payers’ money and agreed to advocate against this cost.” “Council and VicRoads have since reached an agreement to share the cost and the project has
received approval from the state. This is a great outcome for everyone in the community and will ensure there is a safe road, off-road cycling and walking path available for everyone, next to the foreshore. “At the May 27 ordinary council meeting, it was agreed that the previous contract approved in December 2018 would be amended, to allow for a new contract to be signed to get construction underway.” Cr Brownlees said at the meeting “I was supportive of the bay trail right up until last year (...) when we started this mucking around with the trees business. That was never ever considered as part of the proposal.” “The community is pleading for our support, pleading for us to listen, pleading for answers and responses, and they’re being ignored,” he said. Cr West said “the point about this is this project has been delayed now for six months. What we’re seeing now is just the latest example of why it’s been delayed.” “It’s been delayed not because everyone didn’t think it was a good idea, but because there were conflicts among councillors about what was the best way to do it,” she said. Vocal opposers to the Bay Trail attended the meeting, heckling councillors from the public gallery to the point where the mayor Cr Oxley had to ask security to help keep them from interjecting. The Bay Trail debate came to a head earlier this year, when a vote was held in the absence of two councillors to refer the Bay Trail decision making process to IBAC for investigation. That decision was rescinded at a special meeting of council the following week (“Trial on trail called off by divided council”, The Times, 13/2/19).

Storm out leaves shattered glass POLICE are searching for a man and woman who were involved in an incident at the Pier Hotel in Frankston, 30 May. At around 4.30am a man appeared to storm out of the venue, pushing open the glass door and causing it to shatter. Police believe the man had spoken to a woman, and was leaving the premises with her
before the door shattered. Any information to Senior Constable Mark Aitken at the Carrum Downs Police Station on 8770 4100. Slammed: Police are looking for two people (inset) after a glass door was smashed at the Pier Hotel. Pictures: Supplied
Women caught after thefts from school bags TWO women are alleged to have stolen phones, purses, and laptops from the school bags of students at a Frankston high school on 30 May. Police charged a 28-year-old and a 31-yearold in relation to the alleged burglaries. It is alleged that they committed the thefts shortly after school hours at around 4pm. Police recovered a number of stolen items when making arrests. Police estimate that approximately $3500 of property was stolen. The women were arrested on 31 May. One was bailed and the other remanded to appear at the Frankston Magistrates’ Court. There are no offenders still outstanding.
Armed offender steals an AirPod AN armed thief who stole an Apple AirPod from a man on 30 May is on the run from police. An unknown offender approached a victim as he was walking, and removed one of the earphones from his ear. The offender then produced a knife and demanded the victim’s second earphone and his wallet. The offender decamped and was last seen on foot at Kananook trail, No injuries were recorded to the victim. The airwing assisted police with their search, and they are now appealing for witnesses. Any information to Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
Speed blamed for double fatality Hedge burned down POLICE are appealing for witnesses after a fire burned down a hedge at a home in Seaford. At around 5am, 1 June, the fire was started at the Nepean Highway home. Police believe the fire was deliberately lit with an accelerant due to the extent of the damage. The occupants of the home have been Seaford residents for over 60 years. The CFA attended and extinguished the blaze. Detectives established a crime scene, and are currently looking for information. Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers 18000 333 000.

SPEED is being blamed for a tragic collision at Mt Eliza last week in which a young couple ploughed into an approaching car – killing themselves and seriously injuring the other driver. Apprentice hairdresser Kalinda Nheu, 18, of Pearcedale, and Pauly Khaled, 22, of Heatherton, were driving north in a yellow ute when it ran across the median strip into the south-bound lanes and collided with an oncoming vehicle on Nepean Highway, near Mt Eliza Way, 11.15pm, Monday 27 May. The other driver was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The pair were said to be car enthusiasts with car pictures and messages adorning their Facebook pages. On Mr Khaled’s Facebook page was a message: “Friends, countrymen, fellow travellers – it’s time to act! After years of travelling in the slow lane, we need a higher speed limit. Welcome then to our campaign: a crusade designed to increase the limit to 130km/h on our best highways, thus leading to less fatiguerelated crashes on our roads.” Friends and family on Tuesday night held a car meet to honour the pair. Those attending had been urged not to hoon or speed after a tribute
video on social media appeared to show the ute the pair were in doing a burnout hours before they died. Somerville Highway Patrol’s Senior Constable Greg Wolfe said the memorial car meet was well managed and had not caused any issues. He appealed to drivers to “concentrate and drive according to the weather conditions and within the speed limit”. Witnesses or anyone with dash-cam footage of the crash should contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at crimestoppersvic.com.au By Wednesday 137 lives had been lost on the state’s roads – up from 88 last year.
Police hunt Picasso copycat A VANDAL who spray painted a train while donning a blue beret, striped shirt, and white overcoat is on the run from police. Transit safety division investigators believe that two men jumped a fence next to a railway line while a train was stopped between Mordialloc and Aspendale stations between 4pm and 5pm, 11 September. The men graffitied the train, causing around $7500 worth of damage, and fled on foot. Alongside the man in the beret was a man in a high-vis orange shirt. He was wearing a wide brim hat, similar to the one donned by Vincent Van Gogh in some of his self portraits. The wannabe artists have eluded police for six months, who have now put out a public appeal for information. CCTV images have been released of the two men police would like to speak to. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au. Painters not framed: CCTV images have been released of two men vandalising a train.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Mr Flanagan succumbs to influenza, leaving wife and six children Compiled by Cameron McCullough WE regret to record the death of Mr Michael Patrick Flanagan, which sad event took place in the Chelsea Hospital on Wednesday last. The cause of death was influenza and heart failure. Great sympathy is felt for the widow and six children who are left to mourn their loss. Deceased was 42 years of age, and had resided in Frankston for about eight years. The remains were interred in the Frankston cemetery on Thursday, the Rev. Father Norris performing the last sad rites. The mortuary arrangements were carried out by Mr Gamble. *** THE Wattle club held a dance in the Frankston hall last Saturday night. There was a good attendance and an enjoyable evening resulted. *** ATTENTION is directed to the announcement appearing in another column relating to the sale of Mr Eldred Ridgers farm lands situated at Balnarring. The property which is to be offered at the Grand Hotel Mornington on 21st June is specially recommended to orchardists and full particulars may be obtained from the auctioneer, Mr W. S. Keast. *** MRS J.H. Fielder, who has successfully established a school of graceful dancing for children in Frankston has, by special request, arranged to open classes for adults, and the opening night will be on the 17th June next. Mrs Fielder who is a thoroughly accomplished and competent teacher
has had five years experience with J. C. Williamson’s former pupil, Miss J. Brennan. *** A SPECIAL meeting of the Seaford Progress Association will be held tonight (Saturday) to consider the proposal of the Council to construct a footpath on the foreshore side of the main road. The matter appears to have been freely discussed amongst residents and it is probable that representation will be made to the Council to have the proposed work carried out on the opposite side of the road. *** OWING, no doubt, to the large number of people who have been indisposed during the last few weeks the re-organisation of the Frankston Brass Band has been somewhat delayed. We understand that Mr C. Willox, who has the matter in hand has made all preliminary arrangements and all he now asks is that intending members submit their names for enrollment. Suitable promises have been secured for practice, and music, instruments, light and other details have all received attention. It is therefore requested that all intending players communicate with Mr Willox without further delay so that a date may be fixed for commencing practice. *** THERE was only a fair attendance at the R.S.A. euchre party and dance held on Wednesday last. Mr S. Burton was successful in winning the gents prize (a very natty tobacco pouch) and Miss. Luhn the ladies prize (a handsome table centre) presented by, Mr J. C. Murphy.
Miss Tasker and Mr Brody were the winners of the booby prizes. Special thanks are due to the ladies who voluntarily assisted with the refreshments. The opening of the R.S.A. euchre tournament takes place on the 25th June when we expect a record attendance. *** FRANKSTON Progress Association A meeting will be held next Friday, in the Mechanics’ at 8pm. This meeting will be of special importance because several matters affecting the welfare of Frankston will be considered. It is hoped that there will be a good attendance of members. *** ONE of Frankston’s fishermen “Son” Burton, made a nice catch of Sand Mullet on Sunday last. The haul must have weighed several hundred weight. *** THE many friends of Mrs Fraser will be pleased to know that she has left the Somerville hospital quite restored to health and strength after the serious fracture of her leg. *** MR Fox of Seaford, is at present an inmate of St. Pancras Hospital, Frankston. His condition is causing his friends grave anxiety. *** PRIVATE Sinclair is at present visiting his sister, Mrs D. Kennedy, Melbourne Road. Private Sinclair was for a time a prisoner of war in Germany and was only released after the signing of the armistice. *** PRIVATE E. Reynolds since his return from the front has been busy visiting old friends but he still has time to lend
He immediately proceeded to England and enlisting as a Private and served throughout the war. *** MR Thos Ritchie has been advised that his son. Private R. Ritchie is on his way from England and expected to land in Melbourne shortly. *** FOOTBALL Notes. Somerville V. Mornington Last Saturday Somerville took a weak team to Mornington, and as was only to be expected, put up a rather poor showing. About ten of the best players were absent owing to illness, injury and other causes. The scores were – Mornington, 13 goals, 24 behinds; Somerville, 1 goal, 10 behinds, thus indicating the unequal contest. Somerville were best served by Griffith, Shelton, and N, Unthank, the first named player securing the only goal. *** HEARD in the Train That matters, municipal, are likely to be interesting during the next couple of months. That Cr. Oates is seeking an “engagement” with his Seaford colleague in the Seaford Hall, next Saturday night. That as a sequel to the bush fires which swept through a portion of Tyabb on February 15th, a claim for compensation against Thomas Unthank being heard in the County Court on June 16th. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 14 June 1919
assistance to the Frankston footballers. Despite the hardships he has undergone during the past few years Ted seems to have lost none of the dash which always characterised his work on the football ground. *** MR James Grice of “Moondah” Frankston has received the pleasing information that his two soldier sons are returning to Australia. Lieut. Claude Grice who arrives by the “Devanah” in Melbourne next week is an accomplished horseman and is a well known and popular figure on the turf. It will be remembered that he won seven steeple chases on occasion on “Swedish Lad”. Major Geoffrey Grice M.C., M.B.E. of the Highland-Fife Heavy Battery, Royal Garrison Artillery, sailed in the “Bremen” from Liverpool for Melbourne on the 4th inst. The “Bremen” of course was formerly owned by Germany. Major Grice has a distinguished war record. He is well known locally and many will recollect the incident connected with the rescue of a man who was in trouble in the Bay off Frankston. He and Mr E. K. McComb went out and at eminent risk to themselves, picked up the stranger and landed him safely at Mornington. For this deed they both received gold medals. *** ON Sunday last Corpl. R. Sherlock, son of Capt. S. Sherlock, of Frankston, arrived home after an absence of 8 years. Corpl. Sherlock was in South Africa when war broke out.

Sharks see off brave Buds DIVISION ONE
By Brodie Cowburn ROSEBUD came within a whisker of succeeding in a brilliant comeback effort against Sorrento on Saturday. The contest, played on Sorrento’s home turf, see sawed throughout the first half. Rosebud went into the second half down by just three, and looked to be a good chance of getting a win. The third quarter was a Sorrento blitz, as they kicked six goals and established a 31 buffer heading into the final term. The five goal gap looked to have all but sealed their victory. The Buds were determined to not take the loss lying down though, and stormed back with a stunning six goals to one final quarter. They got close, but ultimately fell just short of Sorrento. The final score read 11.19 (85) to 12.12 (84). Leigh Poholke booted five goals for the sharks. At Alexandra Park, premiership winners Pines bounced back from a shocking start to claim a comfortable victory over Mornington. The bottom of the ladder Bulldogs shocked and delighted their home crowd by holding their opponents goalless in the first term. They went into the first break with a five goal lead. The shock start woke the Pythons up, and they bit back with a nine goal to one second quarter. After Pines got going they never looked in danger of losing, and they claimed the win 11.13 (79) to 19.16 (130).

By Brodie Cowburn CRIB Point have finally got off the mark for 2019, recording a big win over Pearcedale in front of their home crowd. Supporters at Crib Point Recreation Reserve were treated to a brilliant first half display from their side, as the Magpies piled on 11 goals to two. Pearcedale performed better in the second half but the damage was done, and the Magpies finally got their first victory for the year on the board. A stunning performance from Thomas Panich helped the Magpies win. He kicked nine goals. The final score read 18.16 (124) to 11.7 (73). At Glover Reserve, Somerville grinded out a narrow win over Devon Meadows. Somerville led throughout the afternoon, but couldn’t manage to put the Panthers away for good. Devon Meadows remained in touch right up until the final siren, but fell just short. The final score read Devon Meadows 9.15 (69) to Somerville 10.15 (75). Rowan Hogenbirk was named among Somerville’s best. He kicked four goals. The victory puts Somerville inside the top six, one win ahead of Hastings. Chelsea put together a good team performance to defeat Tyabb with ease. The Yabbies were made to pay for inaccurate kicking in the first term, as
they scuppered their chance of a good start with a one goal seven behind quarter. Chelsea did what they needed to do to get the job done, and shared the responsibility around. They had ten individual goalkickers on the day, with six of those kicking more than one. Chelsea scored the impressive victory over Tyabb 19.13 (127) to 8.13 (61). At Thomas Barclay Oval, another good performance from full-forward Marc Holt saw Karingal claim an easy win away from home over Hastings. Both sides started slow in a scrappy first term, but a seven goal second quarter saw Karingal run away with it. The Blues could do little to work their way back into the match, and eventually succumbed to defeat to the undefeated Bulls. The final score was 6.7 (43) to 14.16 (100). Holt booted five majors for his side. Langwarrin also had a good day away from home, smashing Rye by 70 points. Rye went into the quarter time break up by a point and looked to be doing okay, before the Kangaroos got the jump on them. The second half saw Langwarrin pile on 11 goals to three and claim the win 6.5 (41) to 17.13 (115). Harry Whitty booted five majors for the losing Demons, while Matthew Payenborg also put away five goals for his victorious Kangaroos. Red Hill and Seaford had a bye.

Somerville secures second spot SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie SOMERVILLE Eagles took a firm grip of second place in State 5 South after Saturday’s 4-2 away win over local rival Rosebud. The result leaves Somerville five points clear of third-placed Tullamarine but this definitely wasn’t one for the purists as both sides seemed hellbent on giving the ball away as often as possible. However some comical Somerville defending and the aerial frailty of Rosebud keeper James Cinar brought some uncertainty to the outcome and Rosebud deserves credit for its competitiveness against its much vaunted opponent. Rosebud coach Pat Sabatino had a simple and effective plan of attacking the visitors on the break by exploiting the pace of Chris Parry in particular. Conventional wisdom would have us believe that Rosebud was incapable of standing up to the attacking prowess of Somerville player-coach Dave Greening and strike partner Mark Pagliarulo but the visitors realised they were in for a contest after eight minutes when Rosebud went 1-0 up. Rosebud’s best player, central defender Ben Gamble, struck a powerful low free-kick from outside the area on the right sending the ball flashing past Brown and inside the far post. A portent of the troubles Cinar was to face came in the 19th minute when he watched an inswinging Greening corner being headed off the line by Gamble and five minutes later a glancing header from Carlo Cardoso went in off the far post to make it 1-1. In the 27th minute another inswinging Greening corner was headed in by big Daniel Hodge under little challenge and just a metre off the goal line and Somerville never relinquished that lead. Three minutes later Rosebud’s Mike Durrance broke clear only to volley over and five minutes later another Gamble thunderbolt was deflected onto the near post and bounced clear. Cinar did well to parry a Greening shot in the 39th minute but he was completely lost three minutes later when Ben Meiklem swung onto his favoured left foot and curled in a cross that sailed over Cinar’s head to make it 3-1. It seemed that Somerville was well in control but a minute into the second half a mix-up involving James McKenzie and Brown allowed Parry to make it 3-2. Shortly after McKenzie and Brown gave an encore performance but the Somerville bench wasn’t applauding. Assistant coach Stan Packer let Brown know how he felt in clear and unambiguous terms and Brown’s response was both animated and colourful. But there was a small matter of three points at stake here and they were precious if the visitors were to maintain their promotion push. Pagliarulo should have scored in the 73rd minute when he broke through into a one-on-one but struck his attempt straight at Cinar who was able to parry then gather. Four minutes later Callum Richardson played

an excellent first-time through ball to Greening motoring down the right and his stunning finish from just inside the area settled the issue. Somerville may well win promotion this season in fact it still entertains hopes of clawing back Old Mentonians in the title race but if it succeeds it will have performed at a far higher level than it did in this match. As for Rosebud it remains on course to cement its status in State 5 in its first season back at this level of competition. In NPL2 news Langwarrin lost 1-0 away to Brunswick City on Saturday and may now be too far behind the league pacesetters to vie for promotion. It increasingly looks likely that staying in the top six and preserving its status in the second tier of Victoria’s elite club competition will be Langy’s focus for the remainder of the season as there now is just a four-point buffer between the Lawton Park outfit and the seventh-placed side. Brunswick should have hit the front after four minutes when Luke Burgess was dispossessed by Nate Foster and his ball across the face of goal was slammed over the bar from point-blank range by Matthew Murphy. The decisive moment for Brunswick came four minutes later when Murphy skipped clear of Jaiden Madafferi down the right and played the ball into the area on the bounce where Riki Hosoai headed past Langy keeper Fraser Maclaren for the only goal of the contest. For the most part Langy huffed and puffed but lacked a cutting edge and was only able to amass a handful of shots on target. Evidence of its impotence in attack came in the

75th minute when defender Burgess got onto its best chance only to lose his balance and shoot wide from 10 metres. Langy talisman Wayne Wallace was in England on family matters but is due back this week and there’s no doubting his importance and influence on his team. In NPLW news Southern United lost 8-0 away to Calder United on Saturday. Southern coach Melissa Maizels was pleased with her team’s performance against the runaway league leader drawing a comparison with the previous clash between the sides. “I’m not going to focus on the result today because the performance from the girls against the calibre of players Calder have was nothing short of inspirational,” she said. “But I’d be doing the girls a disservice to not acknowledge the fact they turned a 17-0 defeat in round 1 into an 8-0 defeat this time around. The character and attitude of these girls are unrivalled.” In State 3 news Skye United made it seven wins in a row with an emphatic 5-2 away win over fourth placed Brighton last weekend. Skye dominated early proceedings and was rewarded in the 38th minute when Mark O’Connor’s through ball found Daniel Attard whose attempt was parried by Brighton keeper Damien McDade and Mo Elhassan was on hand to smash the ball into the unguarded goal. Minutes before half time O’Connor doubled the lead as he buried his chance when an indirect free kick was touched off to him giving the visitors a two-goal buffer at the break. Three minutes into the second half Mitch Blake

ROUND 12
got in on the act and finished off a well-worked move to make it 3-0. In the 62nd minute Attard was dragged down in the box and Daniel Walsh stepped up to make it 4-0 from the spot. However, Brighton applied some late pressure as Seamus Mulcahy (80th) and Dave Nicholas (87th) gave the hosts a lifeline. But new Skye signing Maxim Avram from Brandon Park came off the bench and ensured that Skye claimed all three points after a smart turn and finish in the 93rd minute following some fine build-up play from Harrison Michaelis. The result leaves Skye in third place just two points behind Whitehorse United with a game in hand. That match is against Whitehorse and is currently scheduled for Tuesday 9 July at Skye Recreation Reserve. Meanwhile Frankston Pines is zeroing in on the signatures of midfielder Alex Whyte from Langwarrin and utility player Max Boulton from Casey Comets. Whyte held talks with Peninsula Strikers last week but Pines coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor knows Whyte well from last season at Langwarrin and is trying hard to lure the youngster to Monterey Reserve. Taylor also rates Boulton highly and the versatile youngster could prove a valuable addition to the senior squad. In State 4 news Baxter has signed Joe Iline from Pines. Iline is a former Doveton and Baxter player who returns to Baxter Park at a time that the senior squad is hit by injury with Matt McDermott’s broken eye socket likely to sideline him for the next four weeks while Izaak Barr (hamstring) could be out for another fortnight. Baxter had last weekend off and the break helped midfielders Stuart McKenzie and Dan Disseldorp to recover from their injuries. Striker Nathan Yole is still out with a back injury while attacking midfielder Nat Daher (hamstring) will be tested this week. Midfielder Charlie Jones (hamstring) is expected back at training this week. This weekend’s games: FRIDAY, 8.30pm: Frankston Pines v Middle Park (Monterey Reserve), Springvale City v Baxter (Ross Reserve). SATURDAY, 3pm: Eltham v Mornington (Eltham North Reserve), South Springvale v Peninsula Strikers (Warner Reserve), Monash Uni v Skye Utd (Monash University Playing Fields), Seaford Utd v Chelsea (Seaford North Reserve), Pakenham Utd v Rosebud (IYU Recreation Reserve), Knox Utd v Aspendale Stingrays (Park Ridge Reserve), Casey Panthers v Somerville (Prospect Hill Reserve). SATURDAY, 8.30pm: Melbourne City v Langwarrin (Veneto Club). SUNDAY, 4pm: Senior NTC v Southern Utd (Knox Regional Centre).

Brideoake faces raceday treatment charges By Ben Triandafillou TOP-RANKED Mornington-based racehorse trainer David Brideoake will await a hearing scheduled for Monday 17 June over two serious race-day treatment charges put forward by Racing NSW stewards. Racing NSW stewards issued the charges against Brideoake on Wednesday 5 June in relation to the late withdrawal of the Brideoaketrained Princess Jenni from the Adrian Knox Stakes at Randwick on Saturday 6 April. Princess Jenni, who was unplaced in the Group One Queensland Oaks on Saturday 1 June after a tough win in the Group One Schweppes Oakes a month earlier, was withdrawn from the Adrian Knox Stakes after stewards noted an unusual and unexplained lump on the filly’s neck. Brideoake told stewards during a raceday treatment inquiry at Randwick on Saturday 6 April, that the horse had been on a drip through a catheter on the Thursday before being floated to Sydney and Anthony Cummings’ stables. But he said the only needles administered to his horses are via registered vets. “That’s a hard and fast rule,” Brideoake told stewards, before the inquiry was adjourned. “I’ve been training for 25 years and I’m an anticheater. I could possibly be on your side of the bench.” The charges put forward by Racing NSW stewards are: Charge one: AR 254 Injections prohibited at certain times. (1) A person must not, without the permission of

the Stewards: (a) inject; (b) cause to be injected; (c) attempt to inject; or (d) be a party to the injection or attempted injection of, a horse engaged to run in any race: (i) at any time on the day of the scheduled race and prior to the start of that race; and/or (ii) at any time during the 1 clear day
prior to 12.00am on the day of the scheduled race. (2) If a person breaches subrule (1), or the Stewards reasonably suspect that such a breach has been committed, they may order the scratching of the horse from the relevant race. (3) If a person breaches subrule (1),
but the horse competes in the race, the horse may be disqualified from the race. (4) For the purposes of this rule: (a) ‘inject’ includes, but is not limited to, the insertion of a hypodermic needle into a horse; (b) it is not necessary to establish whether any substance
was injected, or the nature of any substance injected. The particulars of the charge: Mr Brideoake did, without the permission of the Stewards, inject and/or caused to be injected the horse Princess Jenni between approximately 7:45am and 11:58am on 6 April 2019, the day of and prior to Race 3, TAB Adrian Knox Stakes conducted at Royal Randwick Racecourse on that day. Charge two: AR 249 Administration of medication on raceday. (1) Notwithstanding the provisions set out in Schedule 1, Part 2, Division 2, a person must not, without the permission of the Stewards: (a) administer; or (b) cause to be administered, any medication to a horse at any time on raceday prior to the commencement of a race in which the horse is engaged to race. (2) If a person breaches subrule (1), a disqualification for a period of not less than 6 months must be imposed, unless there is a finding that a special circumstance exists, in which case that penalty may be reduced. (3) The Stewards may order that a horse which has received a medication in breach of subrule (1) be scratched from a race engagement. The particulars of the charge: Mr Brideoake did, without the permission of the Stewards, administer and/or caused to be administered medication the horse Princess Jenni between approximately 7:45am and 11:58am on 6 April 2019 the day of and prior to Race 3, TAB Adrian Knox Stakes conducted at Royal Randwick Racecourse on that day.
