Playgrounds on the up PARKS and recreation around Frankston are set for improvements as part of a council push to provide “high-quality playgrounds” for youngsters. A $1 million upgrade at Ballam Park on Cranbourne Rd will include the replacement of ageing playground equipment, new slides and rope nets and parkour surfaces and works to refurbish a fort. Flinders Christian College students Isaac James and Levi Gould took part in council’s design consultation process. Their ideas on creating a dedicated parkour area will be incorporated into the new playground design at Ballam Park with construction due to finish in October. “We’re super excited to be able to have this new facility to be able to do what we love,” Isaac said. Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley said works have also begun on a $300,000 upgrade of Keast Park in Seaford and the playground at Frankston’s waterfront will also be upgraded. “By investing in high-quality playgrounds we are providing a great location for families to come together and for children of all ages to make new friends as they explore, learn and develop in a fun environment,” Cr Dooley said.

Rancour over City Life ‘end’ figure was ever discussed or offered.” Mr Edbrooke maintained the government made an offer to City Life to keep its operations afloat in the short term at Beach St before more suitable permanent premises could be found elsewhere in Frankston. “City Life said they were going to cease providing their service so the state government and I came up with an alternative option which would continue to provide meals, welfare and support to those in need in Frankston,”

Council delays decision on sky rail stance Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council has officially decided not to take a stand against sky rail on the Frankston line after councillors voted to defer a stance on the contentious possibility of elevated rail as part of the separation of rail and road at level crossings. A packed public gallery, including Liberal state Upper House MP for the South Eastern Metropolitan Region Inga Peulich and anti-sky rail protesters, at last Monday evening’s public council meeting heard councillors debate whether council should now formally oppose elevated rail along any section of the Frankston line or wait until the Level Crossing Removal Authority (LXRA) release options for level crossings removals in July. Councillors voted 5-4 to postpone a decision on a notice of motion raised by Cr Rebekah Spelman calling on council to oppose sky rail. “I’ve spoken to hundreds of people in Frankston who are dead set against it,” Cr Spelman said. “The overwhelming response that I’ve received is a big fat no to any consideration of an elevated rail.” Crs Brian Cunial and Glenn Aitken argued they opposed sky rail but believed it was better to wait until official options to remove level crossings are on the table next month. Mayor Cr James Dooley reckoned elevated rail will not be built all along the Frankston line. “It will depend on geology and cost. I don’t believe for one minute that we’re

IT has emerged that the Level Crossing Removal Authority (LXRA) is currently monitoring the impacts of rail noise “for improved or new passenger rail infrastructure and changes to land use near existing and planned rail corridors”. A LXRA letter dated May 2016 obtained by Simon Johnson, founder of the noskyrail.com.au group, asked residents living near the Frankston line to allow the authority to install “noise loggers” at their properties “to seek your assistance in carrying out the noise monitoring for the Level Crossing Removal Project”. When contacted by The Times LXRA project director Adam Maguire said rail noise is assessed using Victorian Passenger Rail Infrastructure Noise Policy guidelines. going to see 15 kilometres of sky rail from Mordialloc to Frankston.” Labor Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan says every level crossing along the Frankston line to be removed will be assessed on an individual basis. Cr Suzette Tayler predicted property prices near elevated rail would plummet and crime and graffiti would be rampant. “We need to cut it off now. You don’t leave it to fester because the government will take it over. We need to put our hand up now and say there’s no sky

“LXRA is currently conducting noise monitoring at locations near the eight level crossings that are being removed between Cheltenham and Frankston to record all surrounding noise from trains and roads,” Mr Maguire said. “The testing is being undertaken by noise specialists AECOM using portable noise loggers at approximately 45 homes and businesses for periods of up to seven days with the permission of owners and tenants. “This information is used to evaluate the best solution for each site. We will provide further information and will seek feedback from the community later this year as we progress through the design process.” The LXRA will next month announce options for level crossing removals along the Frankston line.

rail for Frankston. It’s really important to our residents and we’re supposed to listen to our residents.” Cr Darrel Taylor said he supported the level crossing removals program but did not back sky rail since it was not an option discussed before the 2014 state election. “I feel really sorry for people in Seaford and along the Frankston line … they are devastated. They’re putting their hard earned into property, they’re renovating and there’s going to be a 20-metre high concrete monstrosity

running straight past their back door.” He said a lot of young people and families had moved into the Seaford area recently. Cr Michael O’Reilly, who lives in Seaford, said many people would prefer to leave level crossings in place rather than have elevated rail loom over nearby homes. “This is infrastructure that is going to be around for a hundred years and doing it on the cheap is not the way to go in the long term.” When given his opportunity to speak

Cr Colin Hampton moved an amendment to Cr Spelman’s notice of motion to defer “At this point in time I have no opinion one way or the other about what happens with sky rail or underground or road over or road under. We’ve had two meetings with the crossing authority and at these meetings we’ve had no detail,” Cr Hampton said. “They’ve said they’ll be coming back to us with more detail including schematic drawings and I’m obliged as a councillor to take all of this onboard to make a decision.” He said it would make council’s case “stronger” if sky rail is opposed after all options are outlined by the LXRA. Crs Sandra Mayer, Hampton, Dooley, Aitken and Cunial voted to defer a decision until council’s 18 July meeting. Crs Taylor, Tayler, O’Reilly and Spelman opposed the deferral. Decisions on whether elevated rail or road under rail is more appropriate are still to be made for crossings at Balcombe Rd (Mentone), Charman Rd (Cheltenham), Edithvale Rd (Edithvale), Eel Race Rd (Carrum), Seaford Rd (Seaford), Skye/Overton Rd (Frankston), Station St (Bonbeach), Station St (Carrum). Road under rail works are underway at three level crossings at North Rd (Ormond), Centre Rd (Bentleigh) and McKinnon Rd (McKinnon). Kingston Council decided to oppose any plans for sky rail along the Frankston line at a public council meeting last month.

Airport shuttle run back THE state government may be facing anti-sky rail protests but it is happy to welcome a SkyBus to Frankston. SkyBus has taken over the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula to Tullamarine Airport shuttle route. It offers free travel to children, online ticketing and smartphone ticket access. The cost is $38 one way. The service takes in Frankston, Mt Eliza, Mornington, Dromana, and Rosebud. SkyBus director Adam Begg, who says he was “born and raised in Frankston”, said the operator was delighted to be expanding on its existing routes. “I understand the importance of easy, convenient and value-for-money services from the outer suburb to Melbourne Airport,” he said.

“We are excited to be bringing our service to Frankston and offering residents an outstanding experience.” Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said: “The Frankston community welcomes the arrival of SkyBus to our area. “Improved and cost effective transport services, particularly to the airport, are important to residents of Frankston and outer south-eastern suburbs.” The Frankston pick-up point: 444 Nepean Highway, bus stop outside Pragmatic Training; Mt Eliza: 84 Mt Eliza Way, bus stop opposite Safeways; Mornington: Corner Main and Queen streets, bus stop outside old library; Dromana: Bus stop No. 88 opposite Harvey World Travel, and Rosebud: Bus terminal outside Safeway near primary school, 967 Pt Nepean Rd.

Street spending under scrutiny Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au AN AUDIT of upgrade works to Wells St will be conducted after the cost of a ‘new look’ for the central Frankston street rose from $3.5 million to $4.9 million. Councillors last month decided to instruct internal council auditors to comb over spending on new street lights, street furniture, wider footpaths and new gardens. Council CEO Dennis Hovenden confirmed at a public council meeting there had been “project scope changes” increasing the cost of the Wells St revamp but he stressed all changes had been signed off by council. The project was originally slated to be complete in October last year but construction works have taken longer than anticipated. “Because of some delays in completing the project there are some additional funds that are going to have to be sourced and ultimately, at this point in time, we’re probably looking at about $4.9 million,” Mr Hovenden said. Councillors argued at the previous public meeting adjourned by the mayor Cr James Dooley about solely auditing the Wells St project but Cr Glenn Aitken suggested the construction of the new Frankston war memorial at Beauty Park, Frankston Yacht Club, Frankston Football Function Centre and a clubhouse extension for the Frankston Bombers at Baxter Reserve should also be audited to provide “a fair comparison”. When asked by The Times Mr Hovenden confirmed “the total investment in one-of-a-kind street furniture” for Wells St came to $359,470. The cost included 11 city bench seats ($13,830 each), four circular seats ($12,820 each) and 18 planters ($8670 each). “Detailed designs were discussed with and supported by councillors at councillor briefings throughout 2015,” he said.

behind closed doors between monthly public council meetings. The state government is contributing $1.79 million towards the Wells St revamp with Frankston ratepayers picking up the tab for $3.11 million difference in cost at latest count. Mr Hovenden said money would be taken from council’s capital works budget to pay for the street works. “We need to exercise a bit of caution when we’re referring to ‘cost blowouts’ against changes in the project which have been reported to the council all through these projects,” he said at last month’s public council meeting. He did say “a wise council” would look at “learning opportunities” provided by any audit of major projects. Cr Glenn Aitken has denied unilaterally directing contractors on the Wells St project to make changes without consultation with council. Crs Aitken, Brian Cunial, Dooley, Colin Hampton and Sandra Mayer voted to ask internal auditors to analyse five projects, including the Wells St revamp, and report back to council. Crs Taylor, Michael O’Reilly, Rebekah Spelman and Suzette Tayler wanted auditors to solely look at the Wells St project. Mr Hovenden told councillors it is highly unlikely that the internal audits will be finished before October’s council election.

Strife over demise of City Life cafe Continued from Page 1 “I committed that the meals and support service would be protected on my watch, and since the City Life board’s decision, I have been working to confirm both funding and an alternate service provider,” Mr Edbrooke said. Mr Edbrooke advised the charity Wintringham and “other stakeholders” to be confirmed in coming weeks had accepted $300,000 in government funding so meal and support services can continue. Frankston Council welcomed the arrival of Wintringham. “It is with sadness that council received advice that City Life, in conjunction with the Frankston Community Breakfasts, is closing its free meals service delivered by the many dedicated volunteers to the most vulner-

able within our community,” Mayor Cr James Dooley said. “During this time, both council and the Victorian government have been working with City Life to ensure a meals service continues to be provided to those in need. “We shall secure council facilities as venues for the meals service to be delivered.” Councillors unanimously voted at last Monday evening’s public council meeting on 5 June “to facilitate a round table discussion with City Life, Frankston Community Breakfasts, homelessness services and the Victorian government to identify an accessible and viable permanent option for the meals service to continue in the future”. The same nine councillors all voted

to approve the 60-apartments development at a council meeting in December 2014. Council officers at the time promised to help City Life find new premises. “Wintringham is acknowledged as a leading organisation for supporting older people experiencing homelessness across Melbourne. Their role within the community will be greatly appreciated,” Cr Dooley said. “Council has valued the services provided by City Life over the years and we congratulate Mark and his team for their efforts to support those in need.” Mr Whitby told The Times City Life will open “an op shop” at 9 Station St in Frankston to continue raising money to help Frankston’s most vulnerable people.

Expenses remark sees councillor’s card marked Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au UNRULY Frankston Council meetings are becoming the norm rather than the exception in the lead up to council elections in October when councillors face the voters for re-election. Cr Suzette Tayler was ordered out of the council chamber during last Monday evening’s monthly public council meeting amid arguments between councillors over business cards. The latest public spat comes after last month’s public council meeting was cut short amid threats to expel Cr Tayler from the council chamber during a debate about rising costs to refurbish Wells St in central Frankston. Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley ordered Cr Tayler from last week’s meeting after she made allegations of impropriety over councillor expenses.

“I think if you went through some of the councillors’ expenses you might find that there are councillors actually who have spent money that they shouldn’t have spent … for babysitting teenagers and things like that,” Cr Tayler said. The mayor ruled Cr Tayler’s comments “objectionable” and expelled her from the chamber for 30 minutes. Cr Tayler’s ejection from the meeting followed several warnings from the mayor, who chairs council meetings, during the public meeting for interrupting other councillors during debate. Councillors were debating a notice of motion raised by Cr Darrel Taylor at the meeting to make councillors pay for business cards when Cr Tayler made her remarks. The proposal to make councillors pay for business cards followed a heated debate at May’s council meeting over a request by Cr Taylor for council to supply him with his councillor business card

template so he could supply the template to a printer and buy 5000 cards. Cr Taylor, the federal election campaign manager for Liberal candidate for Dunkley Chris Crewther, wanted to use the 5000 cards to campaign against sky rail on the Frankston line but subsequently accepted advice from council CEO Dennis Hovenden that it would be more appropriate to use non-council contact information cards since council does not hold a formal policy position on elevated rail at this stage. Councillors at last Monday’s meeting were arguing over paying for legal advice to determine whether forcing councillors to buy business cards at their own expense, as suggested by Cr Taylor, is “ultra vires” – beyond council’s power to enforce. Cr Colin Hampton argued the Local Government Act states councillors “must be supplied with the tools he requires to be a councillor” and this in-

State opens talks on plan to reshape councils THE state government has released a discussion paper which includes "giving stronger powers to the Minister for Local Government to deal with individual councillors who compromise council governance". The paper, released on Friday by Local Government Natalie Hutchins, follows a series of community forums and consideration of 300 submissions. The proposals also include mayors having two-year terms and greater powers. Councils would also be required to

be more transparent in the hiring of CEOs, their pay and conditions. The CEO is the only executive appointed directly by councillors – the CEO is oversees for all other staffing appointments. The discussion paper also suggests: n Consistency in council electoral structures, the number of councillors and wards. n Putting communities at the centre of shaping council plans by requiring councils to undertake community engagement, such as using citizens juries.

Removing the requirement for nonresident property owners to vote. n Making voting rules consistent and providing the option for electronic voting for council elections in 2020 n Giving stronger powers to the Local Government Minister to deal with councillors who compromise council governance n Improving transparency of CEO pay, recruitment, conditions and performance n Having one land valuation system for levying rates. n

cludes business cards. Cr Hampton, a Labor Party member, accused Cr Taylor of trying to deflect attention from scrutiny of his councillor expenses. “I think it’s a very cynical move from a councillor who has come under heaps and heaps of pressure in the [news] papers lately for money that he’s spent well above what any other councillor has spent,” Cr Hampton said. That comment by Cr Hampton saw Cr Tayler make her controversial remark about expenses that led to her being kicked out of the chamber. After Cr Tayler left the meeting Crs Hampton, Dooley, Glenn Aitken, Brian Cunial, Sandra Mayer and Michael O’Reilly voted against the proposal to make councillors pay for business cards. Cr Darrel Taylor voted for his motion while Cr Rebekah Spelman abstained.

Watchdog investigates council MYSTERY surrounds a Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate investigation focused on Frankston Council. The independent councils watchdog has confirmed it “will conduct an investigation in relation to matters regarding Frankston City Council”. “The Inspectorate deals with complaints or requests for investigation in strict confidence and does not provide comment on investigations that are yet to be finalised,” a statement provided by the Inspectorate to The Times confirmed.

“The Inspectorate has no further comment to provide regarding this matter.” The watchdog’s refusal to clarify the nature of its investigation puts council and councillors under a cloud of suspicion in a council election year. Councillors face voters for re-election in October. Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley said he was unable to comment on any confidential investigation due to Local Government Act regulations.

A VOLUNTEER’S most valuable contribution to cardiac patients and their families is by sharing their experiences, explaining how they felt when they were in the same situation, and by providing practical information, such as dealing with VicRoads and travel insurance companies. That’s the message Peninsula Private Hospital’s cardiac rehabilitation and domiciliary program coordinator Jonathan Boothroyd delivered at last week’s volunteers’ awards ceremony at New Peninsula Community Centre, Craigie Rd, Mt Martha. “Hospital staff oversee the clinical aspects of the program, however it is the volunteers who offer advice based on their experience of living through such conditions and how it feels,” Mr Boothroyd said. “The patients often respond in a positive way, finding it enables them to learn to accept their experience, and supporting them as they move forward with their lives. “Volunteers are the unsung heroes, although they are not often seen around the hospital as they are out helping patients in church halls, car parks and even at night walking with patients, always en-

They assist with the setup of venues used, record blood pressures, supervise exercise stations and welcome patients when they arrive,” Mr Boothroyd said. Private’s decade-old cardiac rehab program assists patients who have had a heart attack, undergone open heart surgery, cardiac procedure, such as coronary stents, are living with heart failure or who are at risk of developing cardiovascular disease. It runs across two sites, and includes an evening session for younger patients. The Heart Foundation has released evidence of the benefits of patients attending a cardiac rehabilitation program after the event and the decrease in re-presentation and mortality as a result. “People who attend are 40 per cent less likely to suffer another heart attack and, if they do, are 25 per cent less likely to die,” the evidence found.

‘Coward punches’ no laughing matter Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au A NIGHT out at the movies in Frankston turned ugly for a young man and his girlfriend last week. Blake Everett, a 19-year-old stand-up comedian from Coburg, and his girlfriend, Alanah Parkin, were walking from the train station to the Hoyts cinema complex in Wells St at about 6pm last Monday evening (6 June) when they passed a group of youths. One of the youths asked Everett for a cigarette before launching an unprovoked attack on the teen. Mr Everett, whose Ready Since I Was 5 show debuted at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival this year, took to Facebook the day after the incident to detail the cowardly attack. “So, last night I got “king hit” in Frankston... that’s the most cliche sentence I never thought I’d say,” he began before describing the previous evening’s assault. After saying “sorry, don’t have one” to the request for a cigarette Mr Everett said: “Five seconds later, and five metres from the doors of the cinema, I heard some noise and next thing I knew someone had slammed into us and smashed his fist into the front of my head. “Shocked by the situation, I quickly put my hands up to protect myself as he continued to use my head as a punching bag six-eight more times. I then dropped my bag and managed to move forward away from the situation.” The attacker, described as “a Maori boy” stole Mr Everett’s bag but “an African boy” stepped forward and handed him the bag back “while holding the

Maori boy back”. Mr Everett and his girlfriend then headed into the cinema building foyer and he momentarily collapsed with blood gushing from a head wound. Cinema staff helped the couple and witnesses called police. “Within 20 minutes I was in the back of an ambulance ... at the hospital I received seven stitches for my head wound. It’s quite bruised and sore, and I’m glad it was me and not my girlfriend who was hurt. Thanks to all who helped, especially my girlfriend for holding my hand and being there as my head was stitched up.” Police confirmed a 16-year-old youth was arrested and interviewed about two alleged assaults in Frankston last Monday night including an earlier attack on a 44-year-old man a few minutes before Mr Everett was punched several times on Wells St. “The teenager was charged with vari-

ous offences relating to assault and will appear at a children’s court later this month,” police media officer Thomas O’Byrne said. Channel 9 News reported the arrested teen as “part of a group that associates itself with the Apex gang”. Police could not verify this information when contacted by The Times. Before last Monday’s unprovoked attack Mr Everett had previously joked on Facebook in December last year about potentially finding trouble in Frankston. The self-described “gentle giant” uploaded a photo of himself lying on the ground with apparent fake blood makeup and wrote: “Apparently taking a leisurely stroll through Frankston isn’t a thing one can simply do...”. Attempts to speak to Mr Everett before publication were unsuccessful. - with Stephen Taylor

Party ends on sour note

UP to 30 Islander and Sudanese youths turned a Frankston 16-year-old’s party into a war zone, Friday 3 June. Police said the youths – many sporting bandanas and possibly gang colours – smashed windows and burnt holes in the walls and carpets, smashed the headlight of the family car and stole various items, including mobile phones. Various other guests were assaulted, with one 16-year-old staggering along the street and collapsing outside the house of a neighbour, who called an ambulance. He was taken to Frankston hospital with a possible broken cheekbone. The damage bill is said to be around $1500. But the parents at the house in Frome Av may have been partly to blame for the chaos, police said, as the supposedly supervised party was advertised on Facebook with an admission price of $10 a head charged at the door. Police said the trouble makers arrived at 8.30pm but police were not called until 11.30pm, when they shut the party down. Detective Senior Constable Ashley Eames, of Frankston CIU, said the youths, aged 15-20, could not be called gate crashers if they paid to enter like everyone else. “We have had reports of six robberies on the night – including the stealing of $150 in party proceeds from one guest – but, so far, no one’s come forward to report them or to make a complaint,” he said. “We certainly don’t want kids standing over other kids, and we urge anyone who had items stolen to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.”

Car theft leads to arrests

POLICE searching for a Ford Territory stolen from a property at Frankston South, Monday 6 June, arrested five teenagers in Frankston for a range of offences. Detective Acting Senior Sergeant Alistair Hansen, of Frankston CIU, said a 16-year-old youth of Frankston, 19-year-old man of Cranbourne, 14-year-old girl of Seaford, 14-yearold girl of Frankston, and a 15-yearold girl of Frankston, had been charged with aggravated burglaries in Frankston South and Cranbourne, theft of cars in Cranbourne, driving offences, evading police, dangerous driving, petrol theft and unlicenced driving. The 16-year-old was remanded in custody. The others were bailed to appear at Frankston Children’s Court at a later date. None is believed to be members of the Apex gang. Three other offenders are still at large. Detective Hansen said homeowners were making it too easy for thieves by leaving doors unlocked, especially at night. “They should be more vigilant and take responsibility for their actions, he said.

Woman attacked

A CARRUM Downs woman walking to her car, 4.30am, Monday 6 June, was assaulted by an unknown man, Frankston police said. The woman, 28, was leaving her house in Blackwattle Way when she said a man in his 40s, 1.77cm tall, medium build, scuffled with her and tore her clothing. She received a black eye and facial bruising. The man then ran off. Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Field of political dreams for Dunkley, Flinders 17 VOTERS bored with a seemingly interminable eight-week federal election campaign can now begin to focus attention on polling day on 2 July after the political runners were confirmed on Friday. The Australian Electoral Commission released the official list of candidates on Friday (10 June). A field of six will contest the seat of Flinders and 11 candidates will battle to win the hotly-contested marginal seat of neighbouring Dunkley. Liberal Environment Minister Greg Hunt holds Flinders by a whopping 11.8 per cent margin so there seems little chance of an upset victory as he faces challengers Carolyn Gleixner (Labor), Willisa Hogarth (Greens), Ben Wild (Animal Justice Party), Yvonne Gentle (Rise Up Australia Party) and independent Shane Lewis. Polling suggests the vote in Dunkley could go down to the wire. Sitting member Bruce Billson, the former Liberal small business minister, decided to retire from politics earlier this year after more than two decades. The affable and popular Mr Billson stepped down after being dropped from Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s cabinet when he ousted former PM Tony Abbott. Liberal candidate for Dunkley Chris Crewther faces a fight to retain the seat for his party in the face of a surge in support, according to polls, for Labor candidate Peta Murphy. Mr Billson won the seat with a 5.6 per cent margin in 2013.

Jeanette Swain (Greens), Tim Wilms (Liberal Democrats), Ruth Stanfield (Derryn Hinch’s Justice Party), Michael Rathbone (Family First Party), Sally Baillieu (The Arts Party), Jeff Reaney (Australian Christians), Lin Tregenza (Rise Up Australia Party), Jack Tyson (Animal Justice Party) and independent Joseph Toscano are the nine candidates joining Ms Murphy and Mr Crewther in the battle for Dunkley. Preferences could be crucial in deciding whether the seat is retained by the Liberals or it swings to Labor. Internal Labor Party polling conducted last month suggested Ms Murphy held a 52-48 lead over Mr Crewther after preferences putting the marginal seat in play as a possible Labor gain. The marginal seat of Isaacs – stretching from Mordialloc to parts of Carrum Downs and including parts of Keysborough, Noble Park and Dandenong – is held by Labor MP Mark Dreyfus, the former attorney-general by a marginal 3.9 per cent margin. Just three other candidates have put their hand up to challenge Mr Dreyfus. Liberal candidate Garry Spencer, Greens hopeful Alex Breskin and the Animal Justice Party’s Elizabeth Johnston will face off in Isaacs on 2 July. Neil Walker

Two scuba divers die as MYSTERY surrounds the deaths of two scuba divers near Mornington pier, Friday, but rough seas and strong winds almost certainly contributed to the tragedy. Diving instructor Leonie Hanson, 40, who worked for Harbour Dive Australia, Mornington, and her pupil, a 39-year-old man, of Langwarrin, drowned when they got into difficulties around noon. Witnesses said they heard screams as a desperate Ms Hanson tried to keep her unconscious pupil afloat and lift him onto a ladder on the seaward side of the concrete wall, while being buffeted by large waves. Nearby restaurateur Robert De Santis, who ran to help, told Channel 9 news that a frantic Ms Hanson was struggling to hold onto the man and yelling “hold him”. Mr De Santis climbed down the ladder and into the water

fully clothed in a desperate rescue attempt. He said the pair had their full diving gear on making them hard to hold on to. He and other rescuers removed the man’s diving gear to push the tank off so they could lift him up while a sinking, and obviously exhausted Ms Hanson, slipped away out of reach. Mr De Santis said the instructor’s sole concern was in saving her pupil. “She was helping as well ... I said 'grab the ladder' because I could see she was getting tired, so I put her on the ladder, held his hand,” he said on Channel 9 news. Witnesses said a boat owner moved in to help as Mr De Santis struggled to help the pair, but Ms Hanson was overwhelmed by exhaustion and had possibly gone into shock when she disappeared.

Police, CFA, paramedics at the pier praised the efforts of Mr De Santis and other would-be rescuers. Sergeant Dennis Ramsay, of Mornington police, said the rough conditions on the outer side of the pier hampered rescue attempts. “That was the major issue,” he said. “Big waves were hitting them because they Emergencies Acute were on the rough and side and they kept getting pushed into the pier.

Strong north-westerly winds and the big swell made it hard for police search and rescue divers to recover Ms Hanson’s body, which was eventually found under the pier hours later.

LETTERS Detention martyr

Missing in detail

While at Frankston Magistrates Court last week to support the church group against the indefinite detention of children and refugees (“Christians show no regret for their trespass”, The Times 6/6/16) it became clear to me how frightened the establishment is of the common people. As I have never been to court, I was amazed that the security procedures for getting into court and see justice in action are just as severe as on our borders. The seven people who dared to question the major parties’ asylum seeker policy at [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt’s office were given the chance to make statements to the bench before being judged. All spoke with conviction of the rightness of their actions and came across as caring and loving members of our society. I came to the realisation that it was not the accused who where on trail here, but a government that has been getting more and more distanced from Australians’ notion of a fair go for all. I applaud the magistrate for not recording convictions for all of defendants except one who, in my eyes, is the tragic martyr of this sorry saga of indefinite detention in our concentration camps. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

I am a swinging voter when the occasion arises and have listed some of my concerns which did not appear on brochures I received from candidates in the Dunkley electorate: Chris Crewther (Liberal) and Peta Murphy (Labor). 1 What are their views on how the community should handle the matters of the protection of human life at all levels of development and decline? 2 What are their views on the teaching sex education to primary age children? 3 What are their views view on marriage? 4 The problems affecting dairy farmers in the milk pricing set by big business and corporations. 5 What is their background in school life and previous employment? In a less serious vein: who on earth designed the postal vote application in the name designation and put the status “Mr” just before “Other” when Mr goes first alphabetically? [Liberal] Bruce Billson served Dunkley well and it was a pity that we have lost him as small business minister to [his replacement] Kelly O'Dwyer who is holding, not only a young baby, but other ministries as well. Not good politics there. We need [to be represented by] more than just a pretty face and an interest in finance. Maureen Federico, Frankston South

Guilty parties The policies of both the Labor and Liberal parties towards the asylum seekers on Manus Island and Nauru should be criticised. Isolating these people and keeping them out of sight is an abuse of human rights, especially as Australia is a party to the Refugee Convention. To keep families indefinitely is cruel and unnecessary. The incidence of self-harm and mental illness is high. Border Force is towing boats back to Indonesia constantly but we don’t hear about it. Silence succeeds. Why is Australia so precious that we cannot absorb a mere 3000 but off load them to poor countries? An exodus is taking place world wide and we treat them badly. My country is better than this. Patricia Rayner, Somers

End detention I read with concern that there has been another report about the dangers women face both inside and out of the Nauru detention centre. This group of people – men, women and children who fled their homes to seek asylum continue to live in very challenging and unacceptable surroundings. It is clear from every report about our offshore detention centres, Nauru and Manus Island financed by the Australian government, that the environment in and outside these centres is toxic and dangerous and extremely detrimental to the physical and mental health of these people. No one, especially little children should spent time in these centres. The refugees and asylum seekers currently in these offshore detention centres are caught in a web spun by political decisions with no reasonable and appropriate outcomes for them. After years they still live in fear with no idea or hope for their futures because of this political impasse. This group should be considered unique, never to be replaced by other people seeking asylum and safety. These people should be brought to Australia where they can get appropriate treatment, be quickly processed for refugee or other status and have a chance to settle here and contribute to whichever community they settle in, as many before them have done. Let’s be big enough to see this outrage for what it is, and bring them here. Ann Renkin, Shoreham

Two heads are better As you drive around Frankston, you could be forgiven if you think you're in a time warp. The smiling cherubic face of a former member of parliament adorns many strategic and obviously very salubrious staging posts. Perhaps it's a dynamic duopoly liberally implanted to remind us to vote for the right person. However, to someone fresh from outside the peninsula, they may be forgiven for thinking that more heads are better than one. One can't help but feel that you get a bigger bang for your bucks with two pollies for the price of one retired polly. Ian Morrison, Mt Eliza

Arts supporter We thank Bruce Billson for his efforts as federal Liberal MP for Dunkley, but let's not simply transfer our allegiance to the new Liberal candidate, particularly in light of his earlier comments on penalty rates. We now have Sally Baillieu standing for The Arts Party, a breath of fresh air for Frankston voters. If you're locked in to one of the major party candidates you may like to show your appreciation of how the arts can enhance your lifestyle by putting number 1 against the name of Rose Godde on your Senate voting paper - The Arts Party. "The reversal of the funding cuts imposed on the ABC since the 2013 budget and a programming fund of $200 million a year created to support new ABC and SBS programming, from drama to children's TV. The return of all Screen Australia funding removed since the 2013 budget. The efficiency dividend suspended for both the ABC, SBS and Screen Australia for the next five years. No merging of the ABC and SBS". Cliff Ellen, Rye

Sky rail disappointment Thank you Cr Rebekah Spelman for having the courage and determination to raise the motion that was tabled at the latest Frankston Council meeting. I also thank the councillors that supported the motion. These councillors too showed that they are well connected to the people they represent and understand that it is their duty to protect the community in which they live. I and many others present at the meeting are disappointed in our council and its inability as a group to understand what their community faces from the threat elevated rail. If you as a group wait until 18 July, until the LXRA plans are presented, it will all be too late. The greater likelihood is that elevated rail will be the preferred option and any opportunity to remove that option will be done and dusted. I have no doubt this was the driving force for the City of Kingston in their decision to formally oppose sky rail: remove the opportunity for this monstrosity before it happens to us. Everyone in Frankston will be left with the implications of your decisions long beyond your time in council. Do not think for a moment that a rail under road option cannot be undertaken due to acid sulphate soils or high water table. There is extensive engineering information available to refute such claims. But do consider the probable health implications to your community members should the rail line be hoisted in the air. For the future of the City of Frankston, I implore you to take the time to realistically consider your decision and revisit this motion before it is too late for me, for you, for us.

Kids with cancer visit Mt Eliza COOKING, art and craft, a circus and acrobatics show, a visit from the fire brigade and police, petting zoo and jumping castle entertained children at Camp Manyung, Mt Eliza, last weekend. The 55 children and their siblings, enjoyed the junior camp run by the Challenge organisation, which supports children with cancer. At one stage the children – all in costume – put on a show for their leaders. This annual camp for children aged four to eight aims to give them time away from mum and dad. “It is often the first chance for many kids to

spend time outside of the hospital environment and for some, it is their first night away from home,” Challenge CEO David Rogers said. “It is important for children living with cancer to continue to experience a normal life outside of treatment, and camps are a fantastic way to do this.” The not-for-profit group strives to improve the lives of children and families living with cancer and provides them with experiences, skills and self-confidence to embrace life and move forward on their journey.

Menu change proves healthy, profitable choice CELEBRITY chef Jamie Oliver would be proud of Kunyung Primary School’s canteen menu, thanks to a team of parents and strong school support, says “open minded” manager Mandy Biggins. “The canteen for 30 years has provided a range of snacks and lunches for the pupils and, over this time, it has seen many changes to the menu, but nothing as dramatic as our most recent project,” she said. “Gone are the pre-cooked packaged meals, snacks and juices, replaced by home cooked meals made from local produce, home baked muffins and cookies, fresh popcorn, fruity energy balls and delicious frozen yoghurt treats.” Under the supervision of Ms Biggins, parent volunteers are rostered to bake fresh food for the pupils. Ms Biggins has managed the canteen for 10 years, constantly updating the menu under National Healthy School Canteens guidelines. “I felt it could be improved on but was not sure how to go about it,” she said. Education sub-committee member and nutritionist and parent Alison Miles helped develop a healthy, nutritious and delicious menu. The canteen manager was initially tentative. “It seemed overwhelming to completely change the menu and produce everything on site,” Ms Biggins admitted. “We were concerned whether the pupils would react positively to a menu devoid of pre-packaged items but, with guidance and support, the transition has been a huge success and feedback from both pupils and parents has been positive,” she said.

“Now I can appreciate what a great decision it was to go healthy. “Now my day revolves around preparing delicious food from fresh produce rather than filling the oven with packaged meals and party pies.” Kunyung hopes to lead the way in

having delicious and nutritious meals and snacks for pupils. “Our vegetable patch will provide produce to the canteen, and we encourage other primary schools to re-assess their canteen menus and seriously consider what they are really

feeding their pupils.” The proof is in the pudding – pardon the pun – with confirmation that the canteen is producing a profit. “This is vital as it has to be self-funding,” Ms Biggins said. Stephen Taylor

Agriopportunity WOMEN with an interest in sustainable agriculture are invited to develop their knowledge and share their stories by taking part in a two-year focus group run by the Port Phillip & Westernport Catchment Management Authority. The opportunity is open to all women involved in sustainable agriculture from around the Western Port region, including the Dandenong Ranges, Western Port Catchment, South Gippsland, Bass Coast and the Mornington Peninsula. Participants will have the opportunity to tell their stories and initiate and promote sustainable agriculture. The group will focus on developing broader networks and encouraging women to speak outside their communities on sustainable agriculture and opportunities for sustainable food production. Kicking off the program will be a two-day workshop in September, facilitated by Jenny O’Sullivan of Linking Environment, Agriculture and People, followed by a series of workshops, farm walks and other activities. PPWCMA’s sustainable land management coordinator, Sarah Halligan, said it was a great opportunity for women in the Western Port region to get together, share their knowledge and experiences and help promote the benefits of sustainable agriculture. “There is currently little support for women in the sustainable agriculture field and it is anticipated that the development of this group will help to fill that void and provide a much needed network for women in Western Port.” Interested women should complete an Expression of Interest Form, which can be found at www.ppwcma.vic.gov.au/ publications/publications.aspx. For more information, contact Sarah Halligan on 8781 7908 or email sarah. halligan@ppwcma.vic.gov.au

Judges reserve praise for winning wines THE judges presented 21 trophies to wineries from the Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Valley, South Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand and even Italy at last week’s International Cool Climate Wine Show at Mornington Racing Club. Of the 400-odd entries, 80 came from the peninsula and, of the 21 trophy awards, seven went to peninsula wineries. Two successful peninsula wineries were Elgee Park and Tucks Ridge estates, which won inaugural perpetual trophies: Elgee Park for its Family Reserve Chardonnay 2015 and Tucks Ridge for its Buckle Pinot Noir 2013 wine. In her show comments, chief judge and master of wine Meg Brodtmann praised the high quality of wines. The mayor Cr Graham Pittock said the peninsula’s wine industry had grown in significance and highlighted its importance in promoting the region. Management committee chair Kevin Wyatt said was “thrilled” that wine industry people from Tasmania and South Australia had flown in for the show. Other peninsula wine winners were Red Hill Estate’s Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014, Foxeys Hangout’s Best Pinot Gris 2015 and Bittern Estate’s Bittern Estate Rosé 2015.

Connecting with nature ABOUT 60 people braved cool, damp weather for a cultural treat with Lionel Lauch at Mt Martha’s Sunshine Reserve, Saturday 4 June. Mr Lauch, of Living Culture, shared his knowledge on local plant use for foods, medicines and tools. A didgeridoo “meditation” was played and visitors took part in Mr Lauch’s “Web of Life” game showing how everything in nature is connected.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Jockey hit and killed by motor car Compiled by Melissa Walsh WHILE walking along the road at Carrum at 7.45 on Sunday night last, John Leslie Atkins, 22, a jockey, who lived at Cherry street, Northcote, was run over by a motor car, which passed across his face, fracturing his skull, nose and jaw. He died at Homeopathic Hospital at 11 p.m. the same evening. *** MESSRS Adamson, Strettle and Co., will hold their next sale at Tanti Yards on Monday next, when they will have a good yarding of stock including milkers, springers and fat cattle, also sheep and pigs. *** THE “Wattles” Club social and dance takes place this evening in the Frankston Mechanics Hall, and a pleasant evening’s amusement is anticipated. The funds are in aid of the Langwarrin Recreation Hall. *** IN order to augment the funds in aid of the proposed Frankston Roll of Honor, the “Australian” Club propose holding a dance on Saturday evening, 1st JuIy, in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall. *** THE death occurred at St. Pancras’ Hospital, Frankston, on Tuesday evening of Henry V. Clements who has been a patient of that institution for some weeks suffering from hemorrhage of the lungs. His parents are residents of Williamstown. ***

AT the City Court on Tuesday, John Patrick Casey, charged with the larceny, at Mordialloc, on 7th June, of drapery valued at £50, the property of the Railway Commissioners, was remanded to appear at Frankston Court on Monday next. *** WE have been shown some excellent samples of paper manufactured at the Australian Paper Mills Company, South Melbourne, from canary seed Millet and the white China Millet, grown by Mr C. E. Liardet, at his oil seed Peanut Farm, Frankston. *** THE Commissioners of the State Savings Bank have decided that depositors who take up war loan debentures for sums from £10 to £100 may lodge such debentures at any branch of the bank for safe custody free of charge, and the interest coupons will be detached half yearly by the bank, the amount being placed to the depositor’s credit. This will be a great convenience to depositors, and will enable them to invest in the war loan and draw their income without any trouble or expense. *** A MEETING of all those interested in the Frankston Mechanics’ Institute is called for Friday afternoon next, at 3 o’clock, for the purpose of discussing ways and means of getting up a bazaar and fair, in aid of its funds. As the trustees went to a big expense last year in building additions to the main building, in the way of a comfortable

reading room and library, it now behoves the residents to do their part in defraying the cost. Since the beginning of the war the committee has been very lenient in the way of remitting rents for the use of the hall for meetings, which have been in any way connected with the various movements for the relief of our soldiers and Allies, at the front, which has led to a considerable decrease in the annual amount raised by this means. Mrs Utber has taken on the onerous duties of honorary secretary to the movement and will be pleased to see a representative gathering of towns people at the meeting next Friday afternoon. *** AMONG the correspondence read at a meeting of the “’Wattles” Club committee, held on Wednesday evening, was a letter from Mr W. M.Pearson, Hon. secretary for trips for wounded soldiers, asking if it would be possible to entertain seventy or eighty returned wounded soldiers at Frankston on July 8th. The secretary (Miss Gray) was instructed to forward Mr Pearson a reply to the effect that he could depend upon a right royal welcome for the boys, from the residents of Frankston. As there is plenty of time ahead to arrange matters, there is no reason why everybody should not make it their business to do their very best to provide a couple of hours’ entertainment to brighten the lives, which they have offered for such a noble cause,

and many of them will risk again, and help them to forget the horrors and among their own kith and kin bring them back to their rational selves. *** THE estimated exportable surplus of wheat in Russia and Romania is set down at 310 million bushels, but so long as the Dardanelles remain closed this wheat is securely locked up in the Black Sea, and cannot be used to meet the requirements of other countries. In addition to this Bulgaria has an exportable surplus of 11½ million bushels. On the other hand we must exclude the requirements of enemy countries. Excluding the Russian, Romanian, and Bulgarian wheat from the list and allowing for supplies which would otherwise have gone to enemy countries, a computation of their surplus wheat available for export in the United States, Canada, Argentina, India and Australia bring the quantity to 1010 million bushels. Whilst we have this surplus of 1.010 million bushels the effective demand is set down at from 561 to 614 million bushels, so that we have nearly double the supply of wheat on hand to meet the demand. *** ANY Old Bones. Bones are not wasted. The chief product is glue, and among other materials which are obtained from them are soap, glycerine, and fertilisers. After being carefully separated by workmen they are

soaked in a weak solution of sulphuric acid. From the soaking tanks the bones emerge white and perfectly clean. They are then placed in steam tanks, where, after being subjected to a pressure of steam for several hours, a trap door is opened at the bottom of the digester, as it is called and the liquid glue that has been extracted is drawn off. The liquid glue is partly evaporated and a portion is allowed to harden for commercial use as glue, and a part is refined and sold for gelatine for table use. *** AT the invitation of the Red Cross workers of Mt Eliza, about thirty sick and wounded soldiers came to afternoon tea on Wednesday 14th inst. The tea was given at Glen Shian, which was en fete for the occasion. The drive was gay with bunting and over the gateway a banner was displayed with ‘’Welcome to our Boys”, in red, white and blue. The workers came early, all eager to help, and were waiting to cheer the soldiers when they arrived, in motors, about 3 o’clock. They were soon comfortably seated on the verandah, enjoying the sunshine, also the cigars and cigarettes provided, and listening with evident pleasure to the songs and gramophone selections. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 17 June, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Meditations on a man cave

By Stuart McCullough IT’S done. After months and months of procrastination for which no one other than myself can reasonably be held responsible, it’s finally finished. Or, depending on your point of view, it’s as finished as it’s ever going to be. The spare room at our place that, until now, has been a dumping ground for everything from unpacked boxes of books to low-level nuclear waste, has now been wholly transformed. It no longer has to suffer the ignominy of looking like a glorified closet or one of those rooms you’d expect to see featured on a ‘tenants from hell’ expose on tabloid telly. Nor does it need to be hidden from view, lest it should bring shame to the rest of the house. Not any more. I speak, of course, of the one room of the house that belongs to me and me alone. But before you demand more details and a full-frontal room reveal, I must sound a note of caution. This is not a mere case of re-decoration. It is more a re-birth. In fact, so powerful is this extraordinary metamorphosis that it may no longer be a room in the conventional sense at all. Instead, it may now be a ‘man-cave’. You ought to see it. Shelves run like veins across the walls and are stuffed full of hundreds of books and CDs. I love nothing more than to be surrounded by them. Musical instruments lie slumped in the corners like exhausted boxers and a large desk floats in the middle of the room, a life raft on a sea of carpet. It looks, in a word, busy. Vinyl records, a picture of ‘Dogs Playing Poker’: it’s a space that definitely ticks

PAGE 32

Frankston Times 13 June 2016

a lot of ‘man-cave’ boxes. That said, there are some obvious shortcomings that must be confronted if the place is ever going to realize its full man-cave potential. For starters, there’s no sporting memorabilia. The plain truth is, there’s nothing within the four walls of my so-called man cave that celebrates ei-

ther my or anyone else’s athletic prowess in any way whatsoever. I used to have several swimming certificates I earned during primary school, but these have long been swallowed by the mists of time, even if I do still describe these on my curriculum vitae as ‘post graduate qualifications’. I do recall

collecting Scanlon’s footy cards for one season, succeeding only in securing the less popular half of Carlton’s 1984 team. Even if I could find those cards now, I’d resist the temptation to frame them. It’s not that I don’t own any sporting trophies. It’s more that the only ones I was ever awarded are suitably tiny, as befits the scale of my achievements. I don’t think of them so much as statues so much as stature; namely very, very small. Indeed, they’re the kind of awards that invite mockery rather than admiration. My sixteen-yearold nephew’s sporting trophies look like skyscrapers. Were our respective awards to get into a fight, his would win, gold-painted hands down. Currently, my trophies reside in my father’s study, between the ostrich egg he managed to get through customs in 1962 and the souvenir Corningware that celebrates the wedding of Charles and Dianna. As odd as it may sound to say, it’s where they belong. I couldn’t possibly move them now. Nor do I have anything in the way of hunting trophies. My room is the world that taxidermy forgot, bereft of so much as a stuffed rabbit, much less an elk or antelope. In these enlightened times, perhaps that’s just as well. The only thing I hunt for are bargains, but no-one stuffs and mounts a pair of discounted Explorer socks on the wall. No one. Granted, picking up three pairs of these beauties for eight bucks a pop is an achievement of some substance that, in a better world, would be celebrated, but perhaps not in the man cave.

I don’t own a novelty chair, either. Be it a tractor seat welded to a crankshaft, an oversized faux gorilla hand or a piece of old growth timber, I am woefully deficient in the area of unique seating. Currently, I’m using whatever I can grab from the dining room. An odd chair’s not the only think I’m missing. Come to think of it, I don’t have a jukebox, bar or big screen television. There’s nary a pool table or pinball machine in sight. Nor have I nailed a number plate from Texas, California or Utah into the plaster. The more I think about it, the more I realize just how short of the mark I am. Perhaps that’s all right. Maybe there’s no shame to be had in falling short in the man-cave stakes. If I’m being honest, I struggle a bit with the term ‘man-cave’. Perhaps the blatant gender specificity makes it seem too exclusory. Instead, I might use the Brady method. Brady Bunch patriarch and professional perm enthusiast Mike Brady didn’t have a man-cave. He had a den. It was a place to keep blueprints and dispense meaningful advice to children. There were no decapitated woodland creatures hanging from the wall. Just a few books, a couch that’d seen plenty of better days and a painting that looked as if it might well have been souvenired from a Holiday Inn. It was a sanctuary; a place where a man (permed or otherwise) could feel safe and wear a polyester shirt underneath an oversized cardigan. It’s time to surrender my man-cave aspirations. I am, it seems, a den kind of guy. So be it. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Sharks strike: Bonbeach defeated neighbour EdithvaleAspendale by 24 points. Pictures: Scott Memery

Sharks fight back with win over Eagles PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt BONBEACH is just half a game outside of the top five after a convincing win against neighbour Edithvale-Aspendale in Peninsula League on Saturday. The Sharks came from 12 points down at quarter time and three points down at the last change to win 13.9 (87) to 9.9 (63). Luke Damon was at his vintage best for the Sharks with three goals while Chris Bryan and Shane McDonald played important roles with two goals each to help seal the victory. While the win brought the Sharks to within half a game of fifth spot, the loss came at a cost for the Eagles. Edithvale went into the clash with five wins from seven matches and really could have consolidated its place in the top bracket with a win. The Eagles would have gone within percentage of second place and would have locked them into the top five. However, the loss throws the Eagles back into the mix with the likes of Karingal, Seaford and Bonbeach, who are all vying for the final two places in the five. Bonbeach coach Steve Hughes said it was “probably” his side’s best performances for the year. “Our win against Mt Eliza was pretty good too. You don’t play badly against them and win,” said Hughes. “It was a very important game in the context of our season. The win puts us right back in the mix. “We changed it up a bit last week and Chris Bull

(former league champion) took training and reminded the boys of how long it has been since we have beaten Edithvale (about four years). “Chris stripped things back and the boys really enjoyed it. “We had to be a little patient throughout the match and wait for things to open up a bit, which they did for us in the last quarter. “We were minus 28 from stoppages in the previous two weeks and we needed to get better in that area. “We threw in some older heads in Gary Carpenter and Mark Tyrrell, along with Jackson Casey and Dylan Jones and they did the job for us in there,” said Hughes. The only dampener of a solid day for Bonbeach was the injury to Mick Alexander. Alexander dislocated and broke his elbow after falling awkwardly in a rucking contest. “The boys were pretty flat about it. Mick is a really popular and highly respected person around the club,” said Hughes. “He’s predominantly been a reserves player with us but we spoke to him at the end of last season and told him that we thought he could be a regular senior player. “Mick dropped more than 10kg in the pre-season and has been a great support for ‘DJ’ (Dylan Jones) this season. “We’ll lose him for the season I suspect but he loves the game and has a real thirst for knowledge – he’ll be back bigger and better next season,” said Hughes.

Rye back on track after beating Sorrento NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt HOW quickly the wheel can turn in our great game. A fortnight ago, Rye Football Club was on its knees after being thrashed by Frankston Bombers. That loss came on the back of a drubbing against Sorrento and a last quarter capitulation against Red Hill the week before. Rye was on struggle street. Fast forward a couple of weeks and the Demons have beaten top of the table Hastings and turned the tables on premiership fancies Sorrento in consecutive weeks. It was Rye’s first win against Sorrento at Sorrento for more than 10 years. Wins against Hastings and Sorrento have come on the back of a convincing win against Somerville earlier in the season and a draw against Rosebud in round one. As Rye coach Josh Moore said following the win against Sorrento on Saturday, “our best is good enough to beat anyone in the competition”. At Shark Park on Saturday, the Demons led for the majority of the afternoon to beat its biggest foe 9.14 (68) to 8.10 (58). It was an almost 80 point turnaround from the RPP Match of the Day between these sides less than a month ago. Nobody can dispute Moore’s claims that the Demons’ best is good enough – clearly it is. One just wonders where the effort and application of the past two weeks was for the few weeks prior.

Surely it didn’t take an article questioning the club in the The News three weeks ago to kick start the Rye season? Surely it couldn’t have been as simple as that. On Saturday, the Rye win came on the back of some new faces in the team. There was no question that the players in the team three weeks ago weren’t getting the job done. First gamer Luke Davies-Uniacke booted three goals for the winners and was one of the keys in the victory. Nick Baron, who plays predominantly in the twos, was important in the win. While Nathan Henley and Ryan Mullett rarely put in a bad performance. James Appleford has been in some good form of late and together with Jimmy Jennings, they were catalysts in the victory. Dean Millhouse also hit the scoreboard with a couple of majors, which is what the Demons have lacked – support for Matthew Greig. Sorrento went into the game without key players Scott Lockwood and Leigh Treeby. The youngsters who dominated a few weeks back weren’t as up and about, although Josh Brigden again successfully carried out the job on Greig. Nick Corp played a lone hand in attack with a couple of goals but there were no more multiple contributors. Luke Tapscott worked hard and Ryan Potter and Tyrren head both had strong performances, while Joey Boase has settled into senior footy nicely for the Sharks.

Demons back from the brink: Rye have turned around their fortunes in a matter of weeks. Picture: Andrew Hurst

DAIKIN 2.5KW HEAT PUMP AIRCONDITIONING SYSTEM

We will plan AND install your complete HEATING system

Installed from $1499*

WHY CHOOSE DAIKIN FOR HEATING THIS WINTER? There is a long-standing perception that heating with a gas system is cheaper than heating with an air conditioner. You may be surprised to find that this is not always the case. The cost of operating a Daikin heat pump split system can be up to one-third less the cost of heating with gas.

The results?

Daikin’s split systems are up to

27% cheaper to run than gas heating.
