Businesses up, spending down

ANYONE who thought the Mornington Peninsula was full of tourists over the summer months was not mistaken.

Recent data shows the peninsula is officially one of the most popular tourism spots in Victoria to open a tourism business, with operators benefitting from its proximity to Melbourne, and mix of cafes and restaurants, sand, surf and rolling green hills.

The Business Victoria data shows the peninsula has more tourism businesses (3932) in regional Victoria (it is classified metropolitan by the state government) than the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges (3916) and Murray (3880) regions.

Despite the growth in the number of businesses, tourists are more conservative with their spending, reflecting a post COVID cautiousness.

Modelling based on 2022 ABS data shows tourism on the peninsula is worth almost $613 million in gross revenue and delivers 3824 direct jobs, compared to $1 billion pre-COVID. Most of these jobs are in accommodation and food services (2262), with retail having 604. According to Mornington Peninsula Shire data that figure is down by $4 million pre-COVID.

Koala meets the Obamas

FORMER American President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle visited Moonlit Sanctuary, Pearcedale where they were able to get close to a koala.

Posting on her Facebook page, Michelle Obama said the couple loved every minute of their Australian itinerary, which included a visit to the Sydney Opera House.

The Obamas were in the country for a speaking tour of New South Wales and Victoria,

arriving on 27 March and flying back to the United States two weeks later.

“I am so grateful for the generosity and hospitality the Australian people showed me and Barack everywhere we went,” the former First Lady posted.

“I’ve been wanting to visit for such a long time, and can't wait to go back.”

The peninsula (and Victoria’s) tourism sector is dominated by small businesses that include non-employing, micro and small businesses with fewer than 20 staff. Businesses of this size make up 96 per cent of all tourism businesses in Victoria.

Most of the growth in tourism businesses in Victoria came from cafes, restaurants and takeaway food services (up 15.7 per cent since June 2019 or an extra 3573 businesses).

Committee for Mornington CEO Josh Sinclair said tourism, hospitality and events were “the backbone of the visitor economy on the Mornington Peninsula”. He said the committee would continue to lobby for state and federal money to keep it at the top.

The shire is also calling for more government

support.

The mayor Cr Steve Holland said the council was asking both state and federal governments for money to complete the 130 kilometre Peninsula Trail, which he said has the potential to become one of the greatest scenic trails of the world.

“A completed Peninsula Trail would be a significant boost to our local tourism industry and create local jobs. It would offer exciting new opportunities for guided walking and cycling tours of our vibrant food, wine and art scene and create opportunities for eco-tourism, as well as Aboriginal cultural and historic tours. Importantly, it would attract off-peak and mid-week tourists and more evenly disperse them across the peninsula,” he said.

Holland said the post-pandemic drop in revenue was not surprising “given the impact of lockdowns on the peninsula”.

“[The shire] provides support for our tourism sector in a range of ways, including having a dedicated tourism team based at the Mornington Peninsula Visitor Information Centre in Dromana to help local tourism businesses.”

Despite the number of businesses increasing, Victoria has slipped to third place in Australia’s tourist economies as Sydney takes over from Melbourne as Australia’s top Easter holidays domestic travel destination.

MP for Nepean and shadow tourism minister Sam Groth said international overnight tourism spending ïn Victoria had fallen from $8.8 billion in 2019 to $3.3 billion in 2022.

He said the sector was desperately hoping for answers from the Visitor Economy Master Plan which was due to be delivered in July 2022, and which the state government promised would be a “strategy to drive tourism development over the next 10 years”.

The master plan had never been released and it was now approaching 12 months since its due date.

“Victoria has for a long time been the tourism and major events capital of Australia, but it's clear we cannot afford to be complacent,” Groth said.

Venturer makes it to the top

HIKER, all-round adventurer and member of Mount Eliza’s 1st Ranelagh Scout Group Tristan Latham was one of 116 Venturers from around Victoria to receive their Queen’s Scout Award from the Governor of Victoria, Linda Dessau, on Saturday 1 April.

Only a few Venturers - who are members of the scouting movement aged 15 to 18 - each year attain the Queen’s Scout award, which is the highest award in the Venturer scout section.

Latham spent hundreds of hours on service tasks related to the community, leadership, personal growth and outdoor adventure to achieve the award.

For Latham and other Venturers, highlights included a hiking trip to Cradle Mountain in Tasmania, a skiing adventure at Mt Bogong, community service activities and sharing scouting with juniors in their group.

Venturers plan their own Queen’s Scout program, organise friends and family to participate in activities and community service, and exercise exemplary self-discipline to see it through.

Latham said the commitment of combining school and Venturers was testing at times, especially through COVID-19 lockdowns.

“I now feel like I can achieve anything I set out to do in the future,” he said.

The chief commissioner of Scouts Victoria, Rod Byrnes, said the Queen’s Scout award was a marker of future success in life.

“It is an extraordinary effort for these already occupied secondary

students in their final years at school to achieve their Queen’s Scout at the same time,” he said.

“We, the entire Victorian scouting community, are extremely proud of these Venturers’ success in achieving

their Queen’s Scout Award and we hope they enjoy every moment of the celebrations,” Byrnes said. Latham’s mother Liz said the family was proud of Tristan’s achievements and dedication to his tasks.

The Victorian Government is making it easier for families to find a three and four-year old kinder learning program they can count on.

Aero club loses bid for $124,000 legal costs

PENINSULA Aero Club has failed in a bid to force Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and several Tyabb residents to pay nearly $124,000 in legal costs.

The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal last month ruled that PAC and Westernport Airfield Pty Ltd could not claim costs as they were not “substantially successful” in their dispute with council over: the description of the use of the land as an ‘airfield’ or ‘airport’; the use of the east-west runway; the total number of take-offs and landings of aircraft with an all-up weight of between 4,500 and 12,500 pounds; and the prohibition on night landings and take-offs

(“Aero club given clean air to operate” The News 12/10/22).

Microchip may fix ‘horse’ sale

THE four-legged mascot of Kings Creek Hotel in Hastings has legged it again, and the distraught owners are offering a $500 voucher for its return.

The life-size fibreglass horse has stood out the front of the hotel for many years, attracting the admiring eyes of thousands of passersby.

However, this is not the first time the wayward nag has gone missing,

with thieves making off with it several years ago. On that occasion police were quick to follow the trail and the horse was soon returned.

The Alderson family, which owns the pub, are at a loss as to the horse’s whereabouts this time, and its members are hoping publicity and a generous venue voucher will make the horse thieves think twice.

Staff member Giselle O’Connor said the family was hoping someone in the community knew what happened to the mascot, and it can be safely returned.

The horse is microchipped and will easily be traced if there are attempts to sell it.

Anyone with information should phone the hotel on 5979 2989.

“Except for the declarations with respect to the use of the land as an airport and the east-west runway, the applicants were not successful with respect to the total number of takeoffs and landings in one day nor their interpretation of the term ‘night’,” VCAT deputy president Teresa Bisucci and senior member Rachel Naylor found. The tribunal members said the “complex” proceedings fitted the “high bar” required for the VCAT to not award costs.

The proceedings had involved: detailed documentary material; a plethora of permits with a variety of contradictory conditions requiring interpretation to enable these permits to be read together harmoniously; complex and detailed facts from the mid-1960s; and extensive lay evidence from many witnesses.

“The nature of this proceeding arose because of differing interpretations of the permits and historical documents by the parties to the proceeding,” the members wrote in their 6 March determination to not award the costs sought by the PAC and Westernport Airfield.

“The interpretation included how the permits work together and the permissions given as the permits were issued over decades under various and differing planning scheme provisions.

“As such we are satisfied that the presumption that a successful party is entitled to an order … for the reimbursement of fees is displaced. Accordingly, we refuse to make any order for the reimbursement of fees.” The shire and PAC have a long running history of litigation and hearings at VCAT. In late 2022 the shire controversially gave the club $350,000 (“‘Secretive’ $350,000 payout to aero club” The News 26/10/22).

Peninsula Grammar students star at Space Camp

IN his 1962 speech at Rice University, John F Kennedy laid down the reasoning for his country’s effort to go to the moon before the decade was out. He stated “man, in his quest for knowledge and progress, is determined and cannot be deterred”.

The quest for knowledge of the vast universe is at the edge of science’s understanding, even 60 years after Kennedy’s famous speech. And it is as true now, as it was then, that the next generation are set to take us further into this great unknown, still determined and undeterred.

On Saturday 1 April, 26 Year 10 and 11 students from Peninsula Grammar headed to the United States to complete Advanced Astronaut Training at the US Space and Rocket Centre in Huntsville, Alabama.

The intensive program combined real life applications of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Trainees experienced a variety of astronaut training exercises, engineering challenges and team building activities all culminating in an extended duration simulated space mission.

The students undertook practical astronaut training on the 1/6th gravity chair, multi-axis trainer and in neutral buoyancy while SCUBA diving in the underwater astronaut trainer, designed to simulate the gravity-free environment of space.

On graduating from Advanced Space Academy, the Peninsula Grammar students picked up several

awards for their achievements including an ‘Advanced Space Academy Outstanding Team’ award and a ‘Commanders Cup Award’. One of the school’s students, Harrison Kerr, earned ‘The Right Stuff Award’ for the one person across all Advanced Space Academy teams who went above and beyond to try to ensure the success of their team.

Following graduation from the

program, the group spent time in Orlando, Florida visiting Kennedy Space Centre and Disney’s Magic Kingdom Park, Epcot and Hollywood Studios, where they completed behind the scenes sessions on the Science of Disney Parks.

“I applaud the achievement of the 26 Space Camp students whose effort and commitment have made us so proud,” said Peninsula Grammar

Principal, Stuart Johnston.

“These students have been challenged and tested. To steal a phrase from President Kennedy’s speech, they have chosen to pursue advanced astronaut training not because it is easy, but because it is hard”.

“This goes to the ethos of our school and upholds our aim of ‘inspired performance’ for our students”.

Space Camp had previously been

attended by select Peninsula Grammar Year 9 and 10 students in 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019 before it was interrupted by COVID.

The school is planning to run the program again in 2024 and 2025, before moving back to every second year, to allow students who missed out due to COVID the opportunity to attend.

Trade could rise as barriers drop

NEW opportunities for Mornington Peninsula businesses are predicted to stem from the trade agreement (FTA) between Australia and the United Kingdom.

The UK Consul-General Steph Lysaght visited the peninsula last week to brief businesses about what they could expect when the FTA becomes operative.

The briefing, organised by the Committee for Mornington Peninsula, included benefits that could be expected, including visas, jobs, and the removal of trade barriers.

Also attending during the day were the federal MP for Flinders, Zoe McKenzie, state MPs Paul Mercurio (Hastings) and Sam Groth (Nepean), Cr Antonella Celi and Roger Lancia and Angela Cleland from Mornington Peninsula Regional

Tourism.

“The exporting opportunities for peninsula brewers, wineries, and distillers has grown over recent years and is expected to grow further following the implementation of the FTA,” the committee’s CEO Josh Sinclair said.

“There is also an enormous opportunity to work with the Victorian government and help get British workers here to Victoria, and particularly regions suffering from chronic staff shortages.”

Sinclair said the event with Lysaght was “a great opportunity for the committee to showcase our region to the UK”.

"While the UK is half a world away, the trade opportunities for our region are now tangible,” he said.

"The FTA between the UK and Australia will

see greater people movement and an ease in conditions placed on visas - meaning more workers to fill our staff shortages in our local restaurants, wineries and hotels.

"Similarly, the export opportunities for our home grown beer, wine and distilled spirits are endless - with essentially tariff-free trade between the two countries opening up new markets to local business here on the peninsula. The demand for Australian wine, beer, spirits, and low alcohol products in the UK is growing, and our region has an enormous opportunity to benefit from that."

Zoe McKenzie said now was the time for local business to make the most of the agreement, not when it comes into operation.

Brothers surfing longboards for Australia

THE Dunton brothers from McCrae embody the endless summer dream of pursuing the ultimate wave, the ultimate experience and the ultimate connection with nature.

The brothers have just been selected among four surfers to represent Australia in the 2023 ISA World Longboard Championships in El Salvador starting on 7 May.

The Australian team of two women and two men will compete under the name The Irukandjis Deadly in the Water, adopted by the national team in 2021. An irukandjis is a small, but deadly jellyfish.

The Duntons, Sam, 34, and Tas, 31, were selected through their results in the 2022 Australian Titles held at North Haven, NSW (Tas was second and Sam fifth) and the Victorian tiles which Tas won, and Sam came third.

Almost before they could walk the brothers understood the symbiotic connection humans have with the water, learning from their mum –longtime Mount Martha-based surfer Jan Dunton, who taught her sons to surf as toddlers.

Jan Dunton was the women’s Australian national champion after winning at Bells Beach in 1999.

The brothers went to Frankston High School before, as adults, moving to the peninsula and now jointly run Dromana-based Dunton Group Solar.

Tas said they get involved in the local community and, as they are “passionate about the environment,

love surfing and being out in the ocean, solar was the logical business to pursue”.

Sam said the experience of going back to El Salvador was part of the thrill of being selected.

“Having been there before when I

travelled with my partner in 2014, I know it’s an amazing country with incredible surfing opportunities; I can’t wait,” he said.

“It will be warm, the water will be warm, it will be beautiful … it’s pretty crazy, the stars have aligned.”

Sam said he and Tas chose to ride longboards because they allowed for a “gentle” surfing experience, with longboards more forgiving and stable, giving beginners and seasoned surfers better stability.

Both Duntons earned their places in

the competition, having worked their way up from success in regional and state competitions.

The brothers are seeking sponsors to help them get to the competition. Contact Sam at enquiries@duntongroup. com.au With Keith Platt

Pt Leo Estate lunch for a presidential pair

IT started with a simple phone call. A person wanting to book their “guests” into Pt Leo Estate’s fine dining restaurant, Laura. Nothing that would alert the venue’s general manager, Roger Lancia, that anything was out of the ordinary. Until it was mentioned that before these “guests” could visit, a team would need to attend to inspect the property.

The inspection happened and the team loved what they saw. It would be a perfect place for their “guests” to come for lunch and a wander in the sculpture park.

“Still no names had been mentioned at this point, but I had my suspicions,” said Lancia.

It was only a couple of days before the lunch on Friday 31 March that he was finally told who their “guests” would be. The 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama, and his wife Michelle.

“My first emotion when I found out was pride in our staff,” said Lancia.

“It was only that we’d made a great impression with a member of Obama’s Australian team during a summer visit that they’d recommended it as the place to come.

“It reinforces my belief that we always have to be on our A-game.”

Lancia wasn’t sure what to expect. How big would the “footprint” be when one of the most recognised

couples in the world came for lunch? Would other booking have to be moved?

“The Obama’s were very respectful of what we already had booked. They didn’t want to disrupt or displace anyone else’s plans. We just

sectioned off a discreet corner of the restaurant for them.”

Other diners were initially none the wiser, but would have known something was different, as a visit to Pt Leo Estate doesn’t usually involve seeing local and federal police, and a

contingent of secret service agents.

“Surprisingly, they blended in very well. They were even opening the doors for our other diners,” said Lancia.

The Obamas settled in for what Lancia described as “a great little

lunch”. Keen to immerse themselves in the Mornington Peninsula experience.

“We were so fortunate to be able to show them everything our region excels in,” Lancia said.

“The Obamas were very impressed with the aperitif martinis, prepared at the table.

“Mr Obama even asked for the recipe.”

Then came a chef’s dream as Pt Leo Estate’s culinary director Josep Espusa finished locally caught lobster at the table for the Obamas.

“How wonderful that this dish could be finished for them in sight of where the lobsters were caught in Western Port,” Lancia said.

After the lunch Lancia and Pt Leo Estate’s project administrator, Dermot Molly, walked the Obamas around the sculpture park.

“They were in no rush. After a hectic round of speaking engagements in Australia, we were their opportunity to relax and unwind.

“They also put on quite the show for other diners who discovered the identity of the mystery guests were once they headed out into the sculpture park.”

After they left, Lancia was left to dwell on what was a “surreal and amazing experience”.

“Our take was that you can be incredibly successful on the world stage, but still be nice people.

“We were honoured we could showcase our business to them, and give them a wonderful experience on the Mornington Peninsula.”

SUNDAY MIDSOMER MURDERS

ABC TV, 8.20pm

Peace never lasts in Midsomer, but fans wouldn’t have it any other way. In tonight’s second instalment of season 23 – yes, this delightfully cosy detective series has composed intriguing murder plots since 1997 (retirement beckons but don’t fret) – it’s a place of investigation, rather than a destination, for much-loved DCI John Barnaby (Neil Dudgeon). Challis Court is a swanky gated retirement community set up for former police officers, where the retired criminal catchers dream of relaxing and enjoy their golden years. When a new member of their community, Elaine Bennet (Sabina Franklyn), is found dead, it’s soon apparent this idyll is not all it’s cracked up to be.

MONDAY 1917

7MATE, 8.30pm

This World War I epic is an acute exercise in drama and tension, reinforced by the narrative ingenuity of its real-time premise. The plot revolves around two British soldiers, Will (George MacKay, pictured above) and Tom (Dean-Charles Chapman), who are assigned the critical task of delivering a life-saving message to another unit which is preparing to launch a potentially disastrous assault on enemy positions. Supported by the work of legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins, director Sam Mendes engineers a raw, heart-stopping film that earned both critical and commercial success.

Libs need to follow McKenzie and take climate change more seriously

Flinders is now the Liberal Party’s only safe seat in Melbourne. Labor governs all mainland jurisdictions in Australia for the first time in 15 years, including federally.

ANU’s post-election analysis revealed that almost one in three voters chose minor parties or independent candidates in the election, the highest number in almost a century. This suggests that voters are becoming more interested in policies and people than parties.

The Liberal Party’s failure to engage constructively with climate change legislation in recent months is not winning hearts and minds, particularly with younger voters who are most concerned about the environment.

Surrounded by sea, the Flinders electorate is “one of the most vulnerable Victorian municipalities to the effects of rising sea levels” and residents face rising adaptation and insurance costs (“Facing up to climate change” The News 7/3/22).

[Flinders MP] Zoe McKenzie’s attendance at the international climate conference COP27 in November last year indicates her interest in climate change and her webpage regrets that climate change in Australia has “become political.”

Let’s hope McKenzie can influence the Liberal Party to take climate change more seriously and adopt a constructive and bipartisan approach. As McKenzie says, “We have so much of the world’s energy resources and the necessary critical minerals to develop and sustain the renewable energy sector and, increasingly, the technical know-how to develop and modify systems for greater climate resilience. The opportunity for Australia is huge.” Ray Peck, Hawthorn

MP’s aim is off target

[Flinders MP] Zoe McKenzie has tried to hit Albo [Prime Minister Anthony Albanese] with both barrels, but her aim is way off (“Wedge politics ‘smashes hearts’ in Voice debateLiberal MP” The News 11/4/23). She claims Albo has “smashed the hearts of many coalition parliamentarians”. And here I was thinking that coalition parliamentarians didn’t possess one. She then goes on to quote words from a Murdoch journalist as if they are fact. I don’t recall if Paul Kelly has ever supported any Aboriginal advancement. I also noted that when asked if she would vote yes or no to the referendum she wouldn’t give an answer. Meanwhile, her boss [Liberal leader Peter Dutton] is in Alice Springs with his dog whistle scaring the bejeesus out of the local inhabitants by demanding the army be called in to quell a potential perceived black uprising.

We have [Nationals MP] Barnaby Joyce telling us that if the Voice gets up, the beloved lamb roast will cost $1000. For your god’s sake, get

a grip.

On another note, Liberal MP for Nepean Sam Goth appears to be content to sit on his hands for four years. At a meeting recently with Vinnies Kitchen personnel, asked what he could do about a problem, he just said he’s not in government. Not, “I will speak with the responsible minister and see what can be done”. No, that would be possibly giving the state Labor government brownie points. Meanwhile, the school refurbishments instigated by [former Labor MP for Nepean] Chris Brayne and the state Labor government are continuing. Thank you Chris Brayne, [the Premier] Dan Andrews and Labor.

Inquiry needed

Every time I visit my children in Hobsons Bay I am astonished at how much their council achieves. Mature trees planted, new parks, new roundabouts, tasteful beachside shelters, bins everywhere, a new library with recording studio, free workshops on native gardening, outdoor fitness equipment - and never a large sign boasting of their accomplishments.

Here in Mornington Peninsula Shire, every small achievement seems to be celebrated with expensive signs and photographs of proud councillors. And, while the streets are full of potholes and homeless folk, our council agrees to pay $27,000 to light the national flag (“Lights on for flags at Dromana” The News 5/12/22). Being an electrician has never looked so good. Roll on a performance inquiry (“Ratepayers want inquiry into shire” The News 11/4/23).

Non-representative

If two letters in last week’s editions of The News are anything to go by, we have a new form of democracy in our country.

Firstly, a failed Labor candidate wants elected [Liberal] Flinders MP Zoe McKenzie to “start acting as our representative“ and support Labor Party policy on the voice and not the Liberals policy (“Voice debated” Letters 11/4/23). Here’s a scoop: her side lost.

The people of Flinders voted for a Liberal member to go to Canberra and act as a representative of Liberal policy.

Second up was a serial writer taking a swipe at Ms McKenzie for being “one of several members who pushed past and hurt an attendant” (“Embarrassing exit” Letters 11/4/23). What he failed to tell us was that Ms McKenzie was on crutches with her foot in a moon boot and had very limited movement. But what he did say was telling: “We elect these people to represent us”. Problem is, when you write in every week, sometimes you can forget what you have written

previously, but we all remember who he supported at the election and it wasn’t Ms Mc Kenzie, but a failed independent who only just beat the informal vote. So no, Ms Mc Kenzie will probably not vote the way he wants her to.

Need MP’s view

Peter Dutton’s opposition to the Voice is no surprise. His attitude is there for all to see dating back and beyond before his “African gangs” slur at Victoria. His cabinet solidarity, Canberra Voice, academics and racism can be taken with a grain of salt.

On the other hand, a vote for the Voice would have given [Prime Minister] Anthony Albanese a clear run at the next election, perhaps?

We here in the Flinders electorate are interested in how our representative Zoe McKenzie sees the situation. We can assume her cabinet solidarity, but it would surely help if we heard more from the lady on this important matter.

Labor’s let down

The Labor government has let us down big time on emissions reductions. Anyone who has followed the carbon credit debacle would know it is a rort. So much so that the corporate mafia has entered the fray.

This scheme is good for the brokers and resellers lining their pockets with gold. It is another goose that has laid a golden egg for the corporate mafia and has dubious rules as to what a carbon credit is.

It allows polluters to increase emissions so long as they purchase dodgy carbon credits. Many stem from Indonesia, and that should be a worry in itself.

The program could work for all if the government was the only buyer and seller and bought at [a certain price] and sold for 15 times higher. This would actually incentivise the actual reduction of emissions.

Current purchase price for polluters is $40 for a metric tonne of pollution, what a bargain. Think what the profit per unit would do for the budget.

Irrelevant COALition would be on the carbon tax bandwagon even though having no problem with corporate mafia raking it in and lining their pockets.

It would not be a carbon tax; it would be a carbon reduction incentive.

Need Voice details

To all those looking on with glee at Julian Leeser resigning from the Opposition Liberal front bench over the Liberal Party’s position on the Voice - can you imagine if he was in the Labor Party and publicly opposed party policy? He would have been expelled from the Labor Party.

At least the Liberal Party allows people to vote according to their conscience without ending

their political career in the party. The Labor Party affords people no such freedom - it’s either vote with the party line or you’re out.

The Albanese Labor government has been so sneaky and underhanded with the way in which it is trying to bring in the Indigenous Voice to Parliament. It won’t even tell the Australian people the wording of the legislation to bring in the Voice until after the referendum.

It is asking us to vote for something without even knowing what powers it is going to have.

This is dangerous territory, and something that needs to be opposed until we have all the information at hand.

If you don’t understand it - don’t vote for it.

Question the Voice

If you were to receive an SMS today promising the world but making threats if you dare to question it or worse, unsubscribe, you would almost certainly suspect a scam. This however seems to be precisely the approach the Albanese government is using to sell “the Voice.”

To paraphrase the spiel: “I have a lovely present for you that will make you feel wonderful. I won’t tell you what is in it but look how lovely it looks in its gorgeous wrapping and giant bow … (disclaimer: you can’t return it if it doesn’t suit). If you dare to ask me what is in it I shall yell at you and scream what a horrible person you are for not trusting me and that this clearly means that you must hate everyone and wish ill on the elves that thought up the idea.”

I believe Mr Albanese is being less than honest with us at a time when we need absolute honesty. Questioning “the Voice” does not mean that someone is against the advancement of Indigenous causes, rather simply seeking a way to do what is in the best interests of all Australians. Don’t be taken in by the “vibe”, or fear to ask questions, do your due diligence.

Earth Day Saturday

Earth Day, Saturday 22 April, is devoted to our unique planet. For more than 50 years, people of the world have been coming together on this day to celebrate nature, draw attention to environmental decline, and promote conservation and sustainability.

Incredibly, one billion people from 190 countries take actions like planting trees, reducing plastic waste, making sustainable fashion choices, and advocating for the environment.

This year, the Earth Day theme is “invest in our planet”. Inspiring events and activity toolkits can be found at earthday.org

Earth Day should be a catalyst for communities to work together to make lasting changes that will lead to a sustainable future. As Desmond Tutu suggested, “do your little bit of good where you are; it is those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world”.

MORNINGTON Yacht Club recently hosted its third regatta in just seven weeks, the Victorian School Team Sailing State Championships. Brighton Grammar School won the event, which involved 18 Pacer yachts, 24 teams, and more than 170 young sailors in almost 200 races. Teams came from Geelong and all over Melbourne to compete in a three versus three boat format over the three days from Friday 31 March to Sunday 2 April. Picture: Supplied

Frankston Park improvement - a forward move

Compiled by Cameron McCullough

OVER twelve months ago representatives from various organisations in Frankston met and formed a committee to raise funds for the general improvement of the Frankston Park.

Subscription lists were issued and the district canvassed, but the response in cash was not encouraging, less than £20 being collected.

Last night the committee met again primarily with the idea of considering a letter from Mr. R. Coxall, secretary of the Frankston Football Club, asking for improvements to be made in the direction of providing dressing rooms, etc.

Mr. W. Lind: Have you decided where the new dressing shed is to be erected?

Secretary: On the west end of the park.

Mr. Lind: That is the wrong position. It ought to be on the east side near the kitchen. It should be a decent building—not a lean-to or a China-town affair, but something in keeping with the rest of the park.

Good drainage could be obtained, and the water supply was handy,

Mr. Harry McComb: Does it come under the province of this committee to erect a building as proposed?

Secretary: It is improving the park.

Mr. McComb: Our intention was to improve the oval, and the junior team subscribed on that understanding.

Mr. W. W. Young said that clubs other than football would find the proposed dressing room useful. A temporary shed at the rear of the pavilion would meet the case.

Mr. W .Crawford Young reminded the meeting of the objective of the committee, which was to effect perma-

nent improvements on a large scale. The present proposal did not seem to harmonise with the ideals then set up.

The chairman agreed with this view, and discussion ensued as to whether dressing sheds or improvements to the playing oval were the more important.

Mr. Jennings considered they had met for a specific purpose, viz., to arrange for the building of dressing sheds. The footballers were a fine body of men and should receive every encouragement. He moved that dressing rooms be erected with water laid on for showers, etc.

Mr. Lind seconded.

Mr. Lawrey thought that a galvanised iron lean-to erected at the rear of the present pavillion would answer all purposes. Building at present was very expensive, as witness the new Mt. Eliza hall, 30ft. x 30ft., which cost £600 in addition to a large amount of voluntary labor.

Mr. Lind: There has been some talk of a working bee.

Mr. Lawrey instanced the enterprise of the Langwarrin Football Club as to what could be accomplished by working bees.

The chairman thought the Council might raise a loan for park improvement and he consulted with the engineer regarding the matter.

Lieut.-Colonel Lazarus said he was not present as a delegate.

The Chairman: We would like you to consider yourself a member of the committee.

Lieut.-Colonel Lazarus: I have decided views regarding the park. If you read “The Standard” you will know what those views are. If you don’t read it, the sooner you begin to do so the

better. (Laughter).

He could see that the football representatives were desirous of having the dressing shed erected. He wondered if they could manage to do without it this season.

Mr Reg. Coxall: It would be possible. The club spent £23 on the shed and grounds, including £6 or £7 for material, which had since been stolen.

Mr. Lind: Excuse me, it is all there. (Laughter)

Mr Coxall: The caretaker told me it had been stolen.

Lieut.-Colonel Lazarus said he had a scheme for putting the park in a proper condition, and he supported the chairman’s proposal as to a loan.

It was not advisable to expend money now on work of a temporary nature.

The oval required grading.

The chairman said that a few years ago no one was more opposed to the raising of loans than he, because it meant added burden to the few people then residing in the district. Today conditions were different. The population was increasing by leaps and bounds, and with added numbers the burden would be light.

He was convinced that the Council would have to launch out if they wanted Frankston to progress.

The park, foreshore and beaches should be made more attractive, and so induce people to come to Frankston and reside permanently.

The small loan they might raise for the park would be paid for by all the people. The same applied to the foreshore. $1000 expended on the foreshore between the pier and Beach Street would put Frankston in a position far ahead of other places.

He did not like the idea of a temporary building and he was prepared to go to the Council and move for a loan to improve the park properly. He thought the football club could manage to run along with the same arrangements as they had last season.

Mr. Lind: Could the temporary structure erected by the footballers remain for the use of the sports on New Year’s Day?

The Chairman: No, but the new building would be ready by then.

Mr. Lind had his doubts on the matter.

The Chairman: You never saw anything I tackled fall through.

Mr. Lind: I don’t want to bring in private matters. Where will the sports club be if your proposal falls through?

The chairman said the sports club could use the footballers’ material and erect a shed in a day.

In reply to the engineer Mr. Coxall said he thought the football club could manage with last year’s arrangements if there was a prospect of getting something permanent.

Mr. Jennings: In view of Mr. Coxall’s statement, I withdraw my motion.

Mr. Gamble considered that any buildings provided should be erected by the Council. He did not believe in the practise of going around the town with subscription lists to effect improvements that benefitted the whole of the public. He favored permanent improvements and letting all the people pay. ***

LAST Monday night a motor car, the property of Mr. Smith, of Mordialloc, was very badly damaged by fire on Pt. Nepean Road, near Parkdale.

The fire brigade quickly extinguished the flames, not, however, before the car was severely damaged.

Insurance for £175 was carried by the North British and Mercantile Assurance Co.

***

AT the last Council meeting, Cr. Oates moved that a deputation wait on the Minister for Public Works with a request that a vote be set aside for the purpose of making a harbor for yachts at the Frankston pier.

Cr, Gray: Better make a harbor at the mouth of Kananook Creek.

Cr. Jones: If you looked after the finances of the Frankston Riding you would do better.

Cr. Oates said any number of gentlemen would anchor their yachts at Frankston if a safe harbor was provided. He knew that members of the St. Kilda Yacht Club had made promises to that effect.

Cr. Alden: Lord Forster is going to Mornington, you know. (Laughter).

Cr. Mason seconded the motion, which was carried. ***

Progress Association

Mr. J. Bradbury, jun., moved that a map of Frankston be procured and placed near the ticket window at the Frankston railway station.

He has seen the idea carried out in other places and strangers greatly appreciated the convenience.

Mr Jas. Lambie considered the suggestion an excellent one. He seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously.

The Big Bendigo Crock of Ages Quest

IT was an epic weekend, one that tested my patience, my sanity and my navigational skills. Over the course of two days, I was pushed to the absolute limit, before being dangled over the precipice for an extended period as my knuckles turned white. Looking back, I’m not sure how I survived. Having seen ‘The Sixth Sense’ several times, I’m not entirely sure if I survived. That’s because I spent a whole weekend watching sport. In Bendigo.

I’m not really a sports fan. I realize that’s an odd thing to say, but I’m profoundly averse to investing emotionally in something over which I have absolutely no control. Plus, as a kid I went to the football with my father and witnessed firsthand the kind of emotional mayhem that comes with supporting the Essendon Football Club and it put me off the idea for life. But some are born to sport. Others have sport thrust open them. That’s how I ended up in Bendigo.

I realize that some people will be drawn to speculate as to which sport I devoted my entire weekend. Darts? Polo? Or some kind of revolutionary combination of both darts and polo that sees riders hurl small metal missives at each other as they canter from one end of the paddock to the other? Unfortunately not. Instead, I went to watch soccer. Played by ten year olds.

I know. The first thing about watching soccer in the company of other people who really, really like soccer is that you mustn’t, under any circumstance, call it ‘soccer’. In fact, calling it ‘soccer’ – even if only by accident – is the quickest way to reveal that you’re a total and utter fraud. Rather, the beautiful game must at all times be referred to as ‘football’.

We were attending a soccer / football tournament somewhere north of Bendigo. As we travelled, Liam celebrated his tenth birthday in the backseat of the car by confiscating my phone and selecting a playlist. The results were not so much musical as they were harrowing. Before our trip,

I’d heard the name ‘Bo Burnham’ in passing. Now I hope never to hear it again. Ever.

We drove through town while being tailgated by a large, white Mercedes driven by a lady with massive sunglasses and even bigger hair. Clearly, she’d travelled up from Melbourne. According to Katrina, who was navigating, we were nearing our destination. Then, without warning, I saw the words: ‘Bendigo Pottery’. It was a sign. Albeit one that just said ‘Bendigo Pottery’ but a sign nevertheless. Finally, I could redeem myself.

My parents owned a bread crock from Bendigo Pottery. I’ve no idea why. A ‘bread crock’ is, as

names go, about half right. In essence, it was a giant ceramic jar with a lid in which you stored your bread. Occasionally, bread would go into the bread crock and return in a state I can only describe as ‘green and furry’. The only thing worse than owning a bread crock, though, is owning a slate floor.

I was ten at the time. Instead of playing soccer (I mean ‘football’) I was playing ‘Charlie’ in the Tyabb Primary School production of ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’. During our sold-out run of two shows, I tapped into Charlie Bucket’s heart of darkness and delivered an acclaimed per-

formance for the ages. But it left me exhausted. It was while in this fugue state that I dropped the lid of the bread crock at which point it fractured into a million pieces on the slate floor. Now, four decades on, I had a chance to get a new bread crock.

That idea lasted about five seconds, with five seconds being roughly the amount of time it took for me to mention that I’d really like to go to Bendigo Pottery and for Liam to remind me it was his birthday and there was no chance in hell he’d be spending it looking at pottery. He smashed my dreams as surely as I had smashed the lid to the bread crock.

The tournament was a big deal. There were cars everywhere and you could tell how uncomfortable some were to drive on gravel. Others were shocked at the distance required to reach the nearest comfort station. One parent decided to take matters and possibly something else into his own hands and wandered off into the long grass to answer a call of nature. It seemed an unnecessary risk. They probably don’t get many snakes in his part of Victoria.

On the first day of the tournament, I watched four football games. Which doubled my lifetime total. Liam’s team won all four matches. On the second day, there were two more matches, the first of which they won, the second of which they lost in a penalty shootout. There was crying. There was wailing and the gnashing of teeth. Some of the children were also upset. Eventually, I pulled myself together.

I may not know much about soccer / football, but I know I felt extremely proud that day as we drove back to Melbourne, a giant white Mercedes tail-gaiting as we went. It was an epic and wonderful weekend. Even if losing on penalties is a complete (bread) crock. Happy birthday, Liam. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

The Kangaroos and Redlegs grind out a draw. Huge score in Chelsea, Somerville clash

MPNFL

DIVISION ONE

IT was a game for the ages as newly promoted Langwarrin came up against Mt Eliza at Emil Madsen Reserve on Saturday.

Last year’s Division Two premiers had something to prove in the higher division, but the Redlegs were keen to show them what life was like in Division One.

Langwarrin were quick out of the blocks, slotting a couple of majors in the first quarter. Mt Eliza, while getting four shots on goal, only managed four minor scores, setting a pattern of inaccuracy for the day.

Mt Eliza found the middle in the second quarter, managing three goals, while restricting the Kangaroos to a single goal. They went into half time three points up but could have been in a much stronger position as they had missed the big sticks eight times in the first half.

In the third quarter, it was time for the Redlegs to put the pedal down, and they managed eight scoring shots to Langwarrin’s single. Again, though, inaccuracy marked Mt Eliza’s play with the three-quarter time score telling a story in front of goal with Mt Eliza 6.13 to Langwarrin’s 4.5.

The margin was 20 points going into the final quarter, and Mt Eliza must have been confident of a win.

Langwarrin had other plans, though, and set about grinding away at their lead.

While slotting 3.4 in the final quarter, Langwarrin restricted Mt Eliza to just two minor scores. When the final siren sounded, it was all level at 51 points each. Mt Eliza would rue their inaccuracy in front of goal with their 6.15 to Langwarrin’s 7.9 speaking to the lost opportunity.

Dromana were in no mood to mess around when they took the long drive north to take on Bonbeach at home.

They were firing in the first quarter and slammed on an impressive 6.3 to Bonbeach’s single goal to go into the first break with an impressive 33 point lead.

Bonbeach put up mild resistance in the second quarter, slotting a couple of goals, but Dromana kept rolling forward and went into the big break with a 27 point lead.

The second half saw more of the same, with Dromana grinding Bonbeach down. Three-quarter time saw Dromana with a 45 point lead, and although Bonbeach managed to pull it back a little in the final quarter, Dromana still went to the showers as 40 point winners.

The final score of 13.13 to 8.3 represented 26 shots on goal to just 11, showing that if Dromana had been more accurate in front, the margin could have been significantly higher.

Jordon Andrews slotted four goals for the winners, and Billy Geurts three.

Frankston Bombers were left shell shocked after the first quarter when Pines came out blazing. The Pythons managed six scoring shots to one to head into the first break with a 20-point lead.

Things were very tight in the second quarter with neither team managing to

get much on the board. Pines managed only two minors to Frankston Bombers’ single point.

The third quarter saw the Bombers slam on six goals to Pines’ single major, turning a 21 point deficit at half time to a seven point lead at threequarter time.

From there, the Bombers couldn’t be stopped and they extended their lead during the final term to end up 22 point winners. The final score was 12.8 to 8.10.

Saturday saw last year’s grand final winners, Frankston YCW, take on Sorrento.

The Stonecats undertook a controlled demolition of the Sharks that saw the Sorrento lads never in with a chance.

YCW kept Sorrento at bay all day before piling on eight goals to one in the final quarter to pull away. The final score was 15.15 (105) to 5.11 (41).

Matthew La Fontaine was the best goal scorer for the Stonecats with four majors.

Rosebud and Red Hill were both coming off significant losses in round one when they headed to Olympic Park for their clash. It was a tight affair for most of the day indicating these teams are about on par with each other.

There were only four points in it at quarter time, and Red Hill were only a single point up at the big break.

In the third quarter, Red Hill managed to break away a little, kicking a couple of majors while leaving Rosebud goalless. They went into threequarter time with a 14-point lead.

Rosebud came out a different team in the final quarter, slamming on six goals and a couple of points, while keeping Red Hill to just two goals.

Rosebud ended up 12-point winners with the final score 9.7 to Red Hill’s 7.7.

DIVISION TWO

THE goal umpire’s flags were in tatters from incessant waving after Saturday’s clash between Somerville and Chelsea saw an impressive 62 scoring shots for the game.

The first quarter set the tone for the day with the Eagles kicking 4.2 to the Seagulls 3.5 to be three points up at the first break.

Somerville managed to pull away a little during the second half as the scoring shots still flowed. They had established a 12-point lead at the big break.

Chelsea came out swinging in the third quarter and managed six goals to Somerville’s two, setting themselves up with a 14-point lead at three quarter time.

And while the scoring shots flowed freely in the final quarter, Chelsea managed to pull away to get the chocolates with 21-point margin at the final siren. The final scores were Chelsea 21.13 (139) to Somerville’s 18.10 (118).

Crib Point must have fancied themselves on Saturday when they came up against Pearcedale. The Magpies won their first-round match, while Pearcedale were soundly thumped by Devon Meadows in the first round.

The game started evenly, with both teams kicking accurately in front. Pearcedale managed six through the big sticks to Crib Point’s four to establish a 12-point lead for The Dales at quarter time.

The second quarter was a tussle, with Pearcedale gently grinding at the Magpies, but not running away with it, leaving a 19-point margin at the main break.

The Dales came out a different team in the third quarter and punched six goals while holding the Magpies to a single major, drawing away and establishing a 54-point lead at three quarter time.

Crib Point did their best in the final

stint, but it was too little, too late. They pegged the score back a little, but the final margin was still 42 points in favour of The Dales 18. 12 to 12.6.

It looked like it would be a walk in the park for Edithvale-Aspendale in the first quarter of their clash against Devon Meadows on Saturday.

They piled on an impressive 5.5 to Devon Meadows 1.2 at the first break to establish a 27-point lead.

Devon Meadows put their foot to the floor in the second quarter with eight scoring shots to three pulling the margin back to just seven points at the big break.

Edi-Asp pulled away a little in the third quarter to get their lead back to 16 points at three quarter time.

But again, the Panthers pounced in the final, kicking five goals to two, and managing to get their whiskers in front. The final score was 13.10 (88) to Edi-Asp’s 12.13 (85).

Hastings came into round two after a strong win against Seaford Tigers the week before. Karingal had yet to notch up a win after their first-round game against Mornington was abandoned due to the injury of their ruckman, Reuben Hanson. Knocked out just before half time, the game was delayed over an hour as an ambulance attended to the stricken player. The contest was subsequently called off and the point split.

The tussle could not have been tighter with a single point in Hastings’ favour separating the teams at quarter time, and a single point in Karingal’s favour separating the teams at the big break.

Hastings slotted four majors to Karingal’s three in the third term to establish a four point lead at three-quarter time.

In the final quarter, Karingal put it into top gear kicking 4.5 for the term and restricting Hastings to a single

point. They ended up 24-point winners with the final scores 11.15 (81) to 8.9 (57).

Tyabb entered round two as first round winners against Rye, while Seaford Tigers came in as first round losers against Hastings.

The result of their clash at R. F. Miles Reserve in Seaford was never in doubt with Seaford gently pulling away from Tyabb throughout the day.

A 13-point lead at quarter time became a 33-point lead at the big break. A 45-point lead at three quarter time became a 57-point margin at the final siren.

Jack Lonie was the best goal kicker for Seaford with five for the day while Jake Anderson kicked three of Tyabb’s five majors.

Mornington headed to Rye for the final clash of the week, under lights on Saturday night.

Both teams were without a win after the first round with Rye thrashed by Tyabb last week, and Mornington’s game abandoned.

The night ended up a dismal affair for the Demons, with few opportunities and poor kicking in front of the sticks.

While Mornington managed to put 3.3 on the board in the first quarter, Rye managed just five straight points.

While Mornington doubled their score in the second quarter, Rye managed just 1.1 to give the Bulldogs a 30-point lead at half time.

Things went from bad to worse for Rye in the third quarter with Mornington slamming home six goals while keeping Rye goalless. Mornington went into the final break with a 66-point lead.

Rye managed three goals in the final quarter to Mornington’s one, pulling back the final margin to 55 points, but hit the showers with game best forgotten.

Derby delight for Strikers, Aspy

SOCCER

PENINSULA Strikers and Aspendale were last weekend’s big derby winners while Baxter and Somerville Eagles had to settle for a share of the spoils at Baxter Park.

Strikers overcame the send-off of Huss Chehimi in the 28th minute to emerge 1-0 winners over neighbour Frankston Pines at Monterey Reserve on Friday night.

Chehimi reacted to a late Aaran Currie challenge and was shown a straight red for violent conduct.

Nine minutes later the 10 men went in front.

Pines keeper Colby Jones slipped and his attempted clearance was won by Campbell Steedman who teed it up with one touch then sent a stunning left-foot volley past a helpless Jones.

Steedman’s pace and guile troubled Pines throughout this contest.

He should have iced the outcome early in the second half but skied his shot and teammate Nathan Tsimis emulated him shortly after.

Even though Pines lack a cutting edge they still fashioned chances but Strikers keeper Nathan Brown made some superb reaction saves.

Pines best chance fell to substitute Antonio Marcuccio in the 75th minute.

Joey O’Connor played him in and although Marcuccio successfully lobbed the advancing Brown defender Andy McIntyre had tracked back and was able to head out for a corner.

With time running out for the home side Jones charged forward to attack a set piece only for Strikers to break quickly but substitute Cassius Delaney shot wide from distance with the unguarded goal at his mercy.

Aspendale moved into second in State 5 South with a 2-1 win over Mentone at Jack Grut Reserve on Saturday.

Keiran Hughes put the home side ahead two minutes before the interval after a quick break sent him through into a one-on-one with Mentone keeper Daniel Goy.

Mentone hit back in the 61st minute through Dean Gerszonovicz but three minutes later a quick passing exchange between Jack Runciman and Taylan Yildirim set up Hughes who steered his shot into the bottom right corner for the winner.

Baxter and Somerville drew 2-2 on Saturday in a seesawing contest that saw the visitors to Baxter Park finish with 10 men after Ronnie Krishnan’s second caution in the 71st minute.

Somerville broke through four min-

utes into the second half when Conor McFall caught Baxter defenders on the hop rolling his free kick to Tom Simmons on the right of the area.

Two defenders charged towards Simmons who neatly cut inside them as they slid to the deck then he struck a low left-foot shot that deflected past Baxter keeper Jarrod Nardino.

Baxter hit back in the 61st minute when Somerville failed to clear following a corner and central defender Danial Taylor spun and thumped the loose ball low past Nick Bucello to make it 1-1.

Krishnan’s dismissal should have given the home side a decided edge but Somerville substitute Xavier Apela had other ideas.

In the 79th minute he broke into a one-on-one with Taylor and cut inside the big defender who chose to go to ground then Apela smacked a superb strike past Nardino and inside the far post to make it 2-1.

It looked like the visitors would hang on until the 85th minute when Baxter fashioned a fine move down the left with Brodie Jones playing the ball to Keegan Myatt.

The winger played it inside to captain Aleks Dukic and he curled a precise shot into the far corner to split the points.

While Somerville will be satisfied with its start to the season and sits in third place Baxter is yet to win and is now second bottom.

However help is on the way in the form of strikers Liam Baxter and Dylan Murchie.

Baxter is set to return from Scotland this week while Murchie’s visa situation is expected to be resolved

shortly allowing him to return from South Africa.

In NPL2 Langwarrin had one of its best wins of the season when it beat league leader Western United 1-0 at Lawton Park on Saturday. Both sides spurned great chances in the opening minutes.

Western broke quickly in the 5th minute with Noah Holmes sending Abel Walatee down the right and his cutback presented Josh Divin with a tap-in only for the ball to slew off his boot and go wide.

Three minutes later Josh Varga picked out Brad Blumenthal at the far post and his header back across goal was headed straight at Western keeper Lucas Trenkovski by Langy striker Archie Macphee.

The goal that was to decide this contest came in the 34th minute and it was a cracker.

Trenkovski overplayed his sweeper’s role coming way out of the penalty area to near his left touchline then slid in and knocked the ball out.

Tommy Youngs took the throw-in quickly the ball falling to Macphee and from outside the area he unleashed a curling left-foot strike over Trenkovski and into the top far corner.

But the Western keeper’s day went from bad to worse a couple of minutes before half-time after Blumenthal clattered into him in mid-air forcing Trankovski to be stretchered off.

Western couldn’t break down Langwarrin in the second half.

Teenage goalkeeper Nathan Lynders was deputising for James Burgess who was unavailable and Lynders had a fine game later being named by Langy as player of the match.

In State 1 Mornington had its biggest away win in two years when it thrashed Old Scotch 5-0 last weekend.

Two goals in the onslaught stood out – second-half strikes from 19-year-old Brady Pollard and Adam Hester.

Pollard hammered the ball into the top corner from outside the area while Hester beat two opponents cutting in from the right before hitting a curling left foot strike that transfixed Old Scotch keeper Hugh-James Thomas.

Other scorers were David Stirton, Rhys Craigie and Rory Currie.

Teenage central defender Casey Dudley made his senior debut for the Seagulls and is held in high regard at Dallas Brooks Park.

The result takes Mornington into fourth one point behind the three joint leaders.

In State 2 Skye United salvaged a point at home against Hampton East Brighton on Saturday in a 1-1 draw.

Brighton went ahead in the 54th minute when skipper Marco Francese headed home from a corner. However Skye captain Marcus Collier returned serve in the 85th minute when his header hit the target following a Mark O’Connor corner.

In State 4 Chelsea lost 5-2 at home to Sandown Lions on Friday night.

Carlo Melino’s side had a mountain to climb after going down 3-0 in the first half.

Chelsea’s second half goals came from a Marshall Dobson volley and an Adrian Pace header.

The big news at Chelsea is that experienced striker Piers Brelsford has come out of retirement and scored a hat-trick in the reserves while vicecaptain Connor Scott is available again after an eight-week spell recovering from a calf injury.

In State 5 Rosebud lost its top-ofthe-table clash with Hampton Park United 1-0 at Olympic Park on Saturday evening.

“The referee was poor for both teams,” Rosebud head coach Paul Truman said.

“He could not keep up with play and gave baffling decisions.

“This is not sour grapes as we lost to the better side on the night.”

Mt Martha came from behind to win 2-1 away to Barton United on Saturday.

Masih Yaghoubi put Barton ahead in the 64th minute but Ethan Sanderson outpaced the last defender and levelled six minutes later.

Sanderson turned provider in the 84th minute with a pass to 18-year-old Eli Masterson who beat three players inside the area before scoring his first

senior goal.

Seaford United went down 4-3 away to Casey Panthers on Saturday evening. Corio Osorio from the penalty spot, Josh Vega and Callum Norton scored for Seaford.

In Australia Cup news Skye United is the only local club remaining in the national competition after Langwarrin lost 2-0 to Brandon Park last week. Langwarrin fielded an under-21 side at Lawton Park against an opponent three divisions lower but goals from Reece Robic in the first half and Masee Namdar in the second sealed the NPL2 side’s fate.

Langy’s Nicholas Corbett was sent off in the 84th minute.

Skye’s fifth round cup opponent is State 1 North-West outfit Yarraville and they will meet on Tuesday 9 May at Skye Recreation Reserve at 7.30pm. Meanwhile fixtures for the women’s State Leagues were released last week.

The highlights of the first round of league action are the derbies featuring Baxter against Mentone at Baxter Park on Sunday at 1.15pm and the clash between Frankston Pines and Seaford United at Monterey Reserve at 7.45pm on Monday 24 April.

Brown Is Black And White About Yaphet Ahead Of The Mornington Cup

A typically honest Cliff Brown admits that he “buggered up” the preparation of rising stayer Yaphet leading into his most recent start the Group 1 Australian Cup (2000m) on March 25.

Pleased with his three runs prior, Brown concedes that his overfocus on fitness before the Australian Cup was to blame for Yaphet ultimately finishing second-last.

“I think that, in all honesty, I over-trained him going into the Australian Cup and by the time he got there I’d just flattened him. Simple as that,” Brown said.

“I do think that I just buggered it up and look, at weight for age, you don’t expect he’s going to win, but he should have run a lot better and I just simply buggered it up.”

Yaphet will look to return to form on his home track in Saturday’s $350,000 Listed Neds Mornington Cup (2400m) with Brown having learned plenty from his most recent defeat as he turns his attention to the biggest prize on offer at his adopted home base.

“I think that the handicap will suit him,” Brown said.

“To be fair, I thought he was going really well into the Australian Cup Prelude and he got held up that day and got into trouble. I then just became obsessed with the fact that he wasn’t going to be fit enough and I nearly over-trained him, but I think that if you look at his form going up until that, he’d run really well.

“He’s going good, I think he’s going well.”

Brown returned to Australia to train in 2021 following a 12-year stint in Singapore where he notched nearly 600 winners, selecting stables on-course at Mornington as the location for the next phase of his career. He spoke at the time that he felt that he was returning a “better trainer” for all that he had learned, saying this week that adjusting to training back home was an ongoing lesson

“I think you’ve got to learn what works on what track; what’s enough work, what isn’t enough work and those sorts of things,” Brown said.

“And the other thing is that I’ve had to feed them less. I was feeding them far too much when I first came back because they burn so much

when they’re in Singapore in the heat, they burn so much energy but they don’t burn anywhere near the same here.

“I’m still learning. But no, getting there slowly.”

The multiple Group 1 winning horseman admits that winning his new ‘hometown’ Cup would be satisfying, even if he holds reservations about Yaphet’s liking for the typically tight Mornington circuit.

“It would be tremendous, it would be great,” Brown said.

“I’d love to. I’m not convinced it’s his right track but I think that the horse himself is good.”

Yaphet, the runner-up of last year’s Group 1 South Australian Derby (2500m), could be set for the biggest test of his career come October if he were to clinch victory on Saturday with the winner of the Mornington Cup offered ballot exemption into the $5 million Caulfield Cup (2400m).

“A fantastic thing that would be,” Brown said.

“I suppose with a golden ticket, you’ve got to have a go.”
