Brewery visitors urged to avoid driving Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au POLICE are warning microbrewery patrons to watch their alcohol intake after they caught a number of brewery visitors driving close to the legal limit over the long weekend. Operation Regal took place over the Queens’ Birthday long weekend, with an increased police presence working across the state to try and catch drink
drivers. Microbreweries have grown in popularity in recent years, with a number of popular spots open across Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. Frankston Police Senior Sergeant Phil Hulley said that visitors to the breweries might not be aware that drinks at the venues often contain a very high percentage of alcohol. “At these boutique breweries, one beer is a lot stronger than a regular beer usually is. A drink or two at these
places might seem innocuous, but it might just push you over the limit,” he said. “A lot of times we pull over people who had been drinking the night before. In the morning we pulled over a woman who was taking her kids to the pictures, and she blew 0.047. There are police out in the morning, and if you’re even just dropping your kids off at football you still might be over. “These are not your standard glasses of beer. You shouldn’t chance it and
should always take a taxi or an uber. Losing your license has a massively negative effect on your life, so don’t risk it.” More than 8976 traffic offences were detected during Operation Regal. Road Policing Command Assistant Commissioner Stephen Leane said that despite an increased police presence, they still need drivers to do their bit by making the right decisions. “When comparing to last year’s Operation Regal, Victoria Police com-
pleted double the amount of drug tests and caught more people both drink driving and speeding,” Assistant Commissioner Leane said. “We are doing as much as we can to encourage the community to change their behaviour, but need everyone on board to make a difference on our roads.” The state’s road toll is up 54.2 per cent this year. It stands at 148 as of 13 June, compared to 96 at the same time last year.

Buskers subject to new conditions
Improvements at park under consideration
Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au
THE construction of a combined water fountain and dog tap, barbeque, picnic table, and park bench could be on the cards at Whistlestop Reserve. Frankston councillors have asked council officers to report back to them with costings for the project. Councillors voted unanimously to ask for an investigation into an appropriate location for the new facilities within the reserve. A petition of 29 signatures requesting the dog tap and water fountain at the Frankston park was received by councillors on 13 May.
BUSKERS in Frankston will be subject to new restrictions after council revised their busking code of conduct. The revised code of conduct features numerous changes. Under the new code of conduct applicants must be vetted through a “quality lens” in order to be granted a free permit to perform. Performers will also now be required to submit links to video or audio of them performing in order to be granted a permit. A report from a Frankston Council officer reads that vetting will be introduced “keeping in mind that we are not auditioning for professional performers.” Applicants for permits will be assessed by a panel of council staff. The conditions offered to performers notes that “an application may be refused on the grounds of content or quality of performance”. Performance times have now been restricted with the length of time performers are allowed to play for being reduced. Selected sites will allow for low volume amplification for performers. Other changes have been made to the assessment criteria to “ensure street performers are considered suitable and acceptable to safety, amenity and their public appeal”. The assessment criteria for Frankston street performers outlines that the performers must be “skilled in their art form and [have] the ability or entertain and engage an audience.” The conditions offered to performers also state that a permit will only be granted if “the performance positively enhances and activates a streetscape creating a comfortable vibrant ambience, the performer sets a high standard for presentation and delivery of their craft,” and “the performer sets a high standard for presentation and delivery of their craft”. Frankston councillors voted unanimously to make the changes at a 3 June public meeting.
Power play against terminal OPPONENTS to the floating gas processing terminal at Crib Point have planned to present a 15,000-signature petition against the plan to AGL CEO Brett Redman. Save Westernport and Environment Victoria supporters were at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre where Mr Redman was scheduled to deliver a speech “Helping customers and communities through the energy transition” to the Australian Energy Week 2019 conference. Opponents to the gas import plan say AGL does not have a “social licence” to process gas in Western Port.
Unknowing Baxter millionaire A $1.5 MILLION prize is still yet to be claimed, after a lottery ticket sold in Baxter turned up a winner. The Keno ticket was purchased on 8 June at Baxter Tavern. Punters who have visited the venue are urged to check their tickets and collect their prize.

Former Bay Hotel workers push for pay Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A PUSH for former employees of the Bay Hotel in Mordialloc to be paid is gaining momentum, after workers made public claims that they are still owed wages. The hotel suddenly shut its doors last month. Workers have now gone public with allegations that they are still owed pay from their time in employment at the restaurant. A social media campaign titled “#MakeTheBayPay” has gathered momentum, with an online petition gathering over 1500 signatures. Hospo Voice, a hospitality union, has been advocating for workers at the Bay Hotel to be paid the wages they claim they are entitled to. They have been sharing testimonies from former Bay Hotel employees on their social media channels. “Workers from the Bay Hotel in Mordialloc have been left jobless and are owed more than a million dollars by their boss,” one post on the Hospo Voice Facebook page read. “In February this year Bay Hotel’s 35 workers began noticing their pay was late. Then it stopped. But they kept on working, because they didn’t know what else to do. Weeks and weeks went by without staff being paid. Many staff are owed about eight weeks of wages, as well as all their annual leave and long service leave. One worker is owed $13,000.” Another post from Hospo Voice claimed that the owner of the Bay Hotel sold the venue’s “bricks and mortar

for $6.15 million and began leasing it back from a new landlord. He has not given workers a straight answer about what happened to that money.” The restaurant closed down in early May, with a notice of termination of
lease and re-entry appearing on the venue’s door notifying that “the tenant has failed to remedy breaches notified to it through a formal notice of breach dated 16 April 2019 within fourteen days after service of that notice”. The
shutdown of the establishment has not been mentioned on the venue’s website or social media channels. The issue was brought into parliament last week by Mordialloc MP Tim
Richardson, who called for Bay Hotel workers to be paid on the floor of state parliament. Mr Richardson said “the Bay Hotel was for many years the place to catch up with family and friends over a meal and a beverage or two, across the road from the beautiful Mordialloc Creek and the Port Phillip Bay.” “Sadly this beautiful image was shattered when in February this year, workers at the Bay Hotel noticed they weren’t being paid in time. Shortly after that no wages were paid at all, and by May the Bay Hotel closed its doors. The dedicated and passionate staff were left without jobs, without months of pay, and entitlements taken away,” he said. “Millions of dollars were secured for the sale of this premises while millions was ripped away from the workers of the Bay Hotel. To add further pain to the workers we have learned that five years worth of superannuation was never paid into the accounts of Bay Hotel workers in Mordialloc. “The Andrews Labor government committed at the last election that employers who deliberately underpay or don’t pay their workers at all will face massive fines and up to ten years jail under new laws to be introduced when we came to government. “I want to take this opportunity to join the call for the former owner of the Bay Hotel in Mordialloc to do the right thing immediately. Pay your workers the millions of dollars in wages, entitlements and superannuation right now that are owing.”

Street talk: Liquor and gaming officers Robbie Williams, Nicole Saleh, Terry Molloy and Sarah Gregory will discuss liquor and gaming rules when they visit Mornington next week. Picture: Supplied
Keeping tabs on liquor, gaming KEEPING Mornington’s hotels, cafes, bars and restaurants compliant with the latest rules and regulations governing gaming and liquor sales is the aim of a visit by regulators next week. Staff from the state’s liquor regulator – the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation – will target the town’s licenced premises on Monday 24 June. Their aim will not be to check for breaches and issue fines but to educate licensees and help them to remain compliant. VCGLR manager education
programs Veronica Goluza said the VCGLR’s Street Talk program aimed to keep licensees and their staff up to date with gambling and liquor laws. Ms Goluza said key topics would include ‘Bottomless brunches’ – where patrons often drink too much, too quickly, over a short time frame – as well as an obligation for licences to supply free water and be aware of changes to the Liquor Control Reform Act 1998. She said a key change to the Act last September banned licensees from supplying liquor to minors under any circumstances.
“The VCGLR website has a wealth of information but meeting with licensees to discuss their particular venue and licence conditions … means a more targeted response to local issues,” she said. “We want to reinforce the good work they’re doing by meeting the liquor licensing laws and rectify any identified issues, encourage compliance and long term behavioural change during the Street Talk education program.” Details: visit vcglr.vic.gov.au Stephen Taylor

Storied Robinson finishes last chapter PHILIP Robinson, founder of Robinson’s Bookshop in Frankston, has died aged 89. Mr Robinson died at home with his family by his side on Monday, 10 June. Mr Robinson first opened Robinson’s Bookshop in 1963, and operated the shop for close to three decades. After the sale of the bookshop, the brand has extended beyond Frankston. There are now Robinson’s Bookshops open across Victoria, Tasmania, and ACT. Robinson’s Bookshop CEO Susanne Horman released a statement on Mr Robinson’s death. She said “we received sad news that the founder of Robinson’s Bookshop, Philip Robinson, passed away peacefully surrounded by family and friends on Monday night after a short illness.” “Philip was a pioneer of bookselling in Austral-
ia. Together with his wife Moira, Philip opened Robinson’s Bookshop in Frankston in 1963 and it is now Victoria’s oldest general indie bookshop and has grown to have twelve stores across three states,” she said. “To this day customers visiting the store mention Moira and Philip with great fondness and there is great support in the community for both of them and for what they have done together to bring books to the people of Melbourne. “Our thoughts and best wishes are with his wife Moira, their children and extended family.” His funeral service will be held on 18 June.

NEWS DESK Whales making a comeback
WHALES making their presence felt off of Ranelagh Beach, Mt Eliza. Picture: Dolphin Research Institute
ALTHOUGH hunted to the edge of extinction during the industrial whaling era, it is expected that 35,000 humpback whales will visit eastern Australian this year. When whaling ended it was estimated that only 200 – 400 had survived. The news is not so good for the southern right whale, with their southeast Australian numbers now estimated at between 250 and 300 individuals with little noticeable increase in population size. The best land-based locations to see whales in the Two Bays region between June and September] are: Barwon Bluff,; Port Phillip Heads; Cape Schanck; The Nobbies, Pyramid Rock, Cape Woolamai on Phillip Island; and Bass Coast. Fines can apply to people deliberately approaching a whale closer than 200metres for vessels; 300m for jet skis; and 500m height for aircraft (including drones).
Whales back in the bays for winter IT was as if the first day of winter was arranged by central casting. Right on cue, humpback whales appeared in Port Phillip and along the Phillip Island coast. A pod of killer whales was reported at Port Phillip Heads. In the know whale watchers have been awaiting the annual arrival of the marine mammals as they move from the wild Southern Ocean into warmer waters along Australia’s coastlines. For many years, Victoria mostly missed out on seeing these whales, however over the past decade, whale
numbers have grown and the migration of humpback whales regularly spills into the coastal waters of the state’s two major bays, Port Phillip and Western Port. The Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute monitors whale movements and with sightings becoming more regular, established the Two Bays Whale Project, a citizen science initiative designed to gather information on visiting humpback, southern right and killer whales. The project is a partnership with Wildlife Coast Cruises.
“The project has been an amazing step forward for the monitoring and management of large whales in our coastal waters,” project coordinator David Donnelly said. “Last season our citizen science community was instrumental in tracking a humpback whale entangled in crayfish pots.” This information was shared with wildlife managers to assist with the emergency response. This year, whale spotters are being asked to keep watch for a young whale with a large wound on its tail.
The little whale was photographed off Wilsons Promontory last year and through the citizen science network it was matched to photos of a calf with a fresh gaping wound taken 47 days earlier in Hervey Bay, Queensland. “We suspect the calf had been attacked by sharks,” Mr Donnelly said. “In a remarkable feat, the mother whale was able to rescue her calf and travel more than 2000 kilometres to Victoria in 47 days. She would have also fed it about 100 litres of milk every day. “We suspect they would have trave-
led to sub-Antarctic waters to feed over summer, so are very keen to see if the calf survived.” The Two Bays Whale Project is calling for citizen scientists to contribute sightings through ‘PodWatch’ its recently launched application. Go to www.dolphinresearch.org. au and click on the sightings link. The system can be saved to a smart phone’s home screen and used like any other app. Donations to the institute’s GiveNow appeal can be made at www.dolphinresearch.org.au Keith Platt

Aviva Communities Officer - Because people don’t retire like they used to THERE’S a new community for people over 50 taking shape in Officer and it’s like nothing you’ve seen before. The $55million project is all about reinventing retirement and creating a community that is more suited to a young-spirited retiree or pending retiree. “The innovative design of the community and what we are able to offer our homeowners is very different to other options around,” says Todd Strathdee Managing Director of Aviva Communities. Designed by award winning Wolveridge Architects, the homes and clubhouse reflect modern housing styles and all living spaces are oriented to the north to achieve a minimum six-star energy rating. All homes at Aviva Officer come with access to a stunning clubhouse known as ‘The Lodge’. The Lodge design reflects the brick kilns and timber mills that were the foundations of enterprise in Officer. With statuesque brick chimneys punctuating stunning timber facades, The Lodge will be home to a range of amenities that support an active social and physical life. Whilst the community is outstanding in its design credentials, affordability was one of the most important considerations in its creation. Early bird pricing on the first release of homes at Aviva Officer ranges from $380,000 for a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home of around 14.5 squares to $475,000 for a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home of around 17.8 squares. Naturally all homes come complete with everything you need to move right in. “People living in retirement have fixed incomes and worry about how far their money will go” explains Todd.

“At Aviva Communities Officer we are able to offer our homeowners financial peace of mind by rethinking the traditional way these communities work. One example of this is managing electricity costs through a market-leading energy system. We didn’t want our residents to be scrimping on the heater in winter and A/C in summer, so we offer our residents energy in a way that provides certainty and protects them against the ever-increasing electricity price hikes.“ Located on 34 McMullen Road, Aviva Communities Officer is within walking distance of the future planned Officer Town Centre and has the added benefit of being adjacent to the beautiful green spaces of Gum Scrub Creek Nature Reserve. Aviva Communities Officer is under construction now with the VIP release due in July 2019.

Rescue tools taken A FRANKSTON SES vehicle was broken into on 9 June with equipment stolen. A four wheel drive rescue support car was parked in the Karingal Hub car park when it was broken into between 7pm and 9pm. Rescue equipment was taken. Anyone with information or any witnesses should contact Frankston Police.
Paper fire THE CFA attended the scene of a fire on Nepean Highway, Frankston on 9 June. At around 6.30 am CFA attended the scene of a burning shopping trolley. Paper waste inside the trolley had been ignited. Police attended the scene and are appealing for witnesses.
Men charged after pursuit TWO men have been charged after a police pursuit on 10 June. Police from Cranbourne received a call at around 11.30am about a suspected loiter in a vehicle. Later, the alleged offenders in a blue Holden commodore were spotted by a police airwing driving erratically on the Western Port Highway towards Langwarrin. The alleged offenders continued to drive towards Cranbourne, running red lights.
The alleged offenders drove on to Peninsula Link and headed towards the Mornington Peninsula. Multiple police units were following at a distance, and deployed stop sticks successfully. The vehicle stopped and the two men attempted to flee on foot, but were caught. A 22-year-old Frankston North man and a 25-year-old Rosebud man were arrested. No injuries were recorded.
Man armed with stolen knife A MAN was arrested after he was alleged to have threatened a man with a stolen knife on 11 June. At around 2.35pm, the 33-year-old man of no fixed address asked to see a large hunting knife at Beach Street Aussie Disposals. The man allegedly took the knife and fled on foot through the Bayside Shopping Centre. The victim pursued him while calling 000. The man is alleged to have threatened the victim with the knife. Police set up a roving cordon and deployed OC spray on the offender.
Blood on tracks THREE men who allegedly bashed an older man walking near Bittern railway tracks are being sought by Hastings police. Senior Constable Lauren Coster said the men were skylarking on the tracks in a white Nissan Patrol when it became stuck near Moreton Crescent, midday, Thursday 30 May. As they
tried to winch the vehicle free the older man approached and commented and an argument started. One of the younger men allegedly punched him to the head, knocking him down and causing pain, lacerations and swelling to his face. The alleged attacker is described as having fair skin, 183cm tall, stocky build and blond beard. He was wearing a half-length Driza-Bone jacket. Anyone with information is urged to call Senior Constable Coster 5970 7800.
School break-in OFFENDERS forced their way through a wire mesh fence and into a large storage container on the grounds of Hastings Primary School, overnight Sunday 9 June. Detective Senior Sergeant Allan Paxton, of Somerville CIU, said the thieves rifled through tool boxes before stealing power tools and gardening equipment. They then stole a wheelbarrow to carry the items along Hodgins Road. Anyone with information is urged to call Detective Paxton 5978 1300 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
‘Rush’ proved costly A 20-year-old P-plater from Mornington caught speeding at 141kph on Peninsula Link, Mt Martha, 5am, Monday 10 June, told police he was rushing to a mate’s place. He later blew 0.062 per cent; was fined $1088 and lost his licence for six months.
Operation nabs drivers OPERATION Regal, a roadside police operation over the long weekend, saw police nab a number of misbehaving drivers. With close to 9000 traffic offences recorded statewide, local drivers did not escape trouble. In the morning on Saturday 8 June, a ute was pulled over on Frankston-Flinders Road by the Somerville highway patrol. The driver of the ute had been detected speeding at 70kph in a 60kph zone. Police also found the man was driving on a cancelled registration. He returned a positive preliminary drug test for methylamphetamine and allegedly refused an oral fluid drug test. He also did not have an alcohol interlock fitted to his car as required. The 39-year-old man from Bittern had his car impounded and will be summoned to appear in court at a later
date. The next day at 11.30am, Somerville highway patrol members pulled over a 49-year-old Seaford man on a motorcycle. Police clocked the Suzuki Dl1000 racing along at 133kph in an 80kph zone on Thompsons Road, Bangholme. He told police he was running late to a meeting with other motorcycle riders. The man had his bike impounded and walked home. At 8pm that night on Cranbourne Road Langwarrin, a 32-year-old P plater from Frankston was detected driving 126kph in an 80kph zone. The man is alleged to initially given a false name and address to police. He blew 0.118 and had his license suspended on the spot. His car was impounded and he was summonsed to appear in court.
Impounded: A bike and ute were both impounded after a police operation over the long weekend. Pictures: Supplied

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Motor smash in Frankston - serious injuries Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE return journey from Dromana on Saturday last was fraught with disaster for members of the Frankston football team. Then about half a mile on the Dromana side of Balcombe’s Creek, the first car, driven by Mr. J. McEntee, of Seaford, was overtaken by Mr. M. Goulding’s’ car. At this spot the road takes a distinct turn, but Goulding evidently overlooked this fact, with the result that in trying to pass McEntee the cars collided. McEntee kept wonderful control of his car, and successfully brought it to a standstill in the drain, but with a suddenness that precipitated the occupants out of the vehicle. These included Cr. W. J. Oates and Messrs. Cain, Martin, McCulloch, and Mrs. Burton and Master Burton. Fortunately, none of the foregoing sustained serious injury, and Mr. McEntee was afterwards able to get his car going and resume the homeward journey. Goulding’s car fared much worse. It travelled about four lengths and then capsized, the occupants being all under the car. The following cars, driven by Messrs. G. W. Wells and Forster were shortly at the scene of disaster, and all present rendered what assistance was possible. The injured men were: Mr. W. Egan (injuries to head and face), Mr. Williams (broken ankle), Mr. Paternoster (injuries to ear), Mr. Cain (shock and abrasions), Mr Kirkpatrick (Dromana), serious injuries. Mr. Goulding (badly shaken).
The more seriously injured were ferried to Mornington, and received the services of Dr. Somers. Mr Kirkpatrick was taken to his home at Mentone, and was admitted to the Alfred Hospital. Mr Paternoster and Williams are under the care of Dr. Atkinson, of Frankston. From latest reports all are progressing as well as can be expected. *** REV. E. Tonkin will conduct both services in the local Methodist Church on Sunday next. Communion in the morning. Solo in the evening. *** A SOCIAL in connection with the Methodist C.E. Society will be held in the School Hall on Saturday evening (to-night,) when a good program of vocal and elocutionary items will be presented, also games, competitions and refreshments. This is open to all for the modest charge of sixpence. *** THE announcement appears in our advertising columns that Messrs T. R. B. Morton and Son will, on Thursday, 26th June, offer for sale at “Peach Grove” Hastings Road, Somerville, the farm, orchard plant, horses and sundries of Mr A. G. Thornell. The sale starts at 12.30 o’clock and should attract general attention. A large quantity of household furniture will also be offered. *** A DANCE in connection with the local branch, of the Returned Soldiers Association will be held in the Frankston
Mechanics’ Hall to-night. The drawing of raffles in connection with the recent Anzac appeal will take place during the evening and will give added interest to the function. Progress reports in connection with the “ugly man” competition will be made and the final announcement at 10.30pm. *** THE “Wattle” club held their usual euchre party and dance on Thursday evening last. There was a fair attendance considering the “elements”. Mrs Murphy and Misses Tasker, Thompson and Gregory with ten games each, played off and resulted in a win for Mrs Murphy. Messrs Paxman, Dalman, A. Wood, H. McSweeney with nine games each played off, and Mr McSweeney was declared the winner. *** AT about 5.30 on Thursday evening last, near Chelsea, a motor car driven by Mr P. Wheeler of Frankston, the other occupants being Mrs Wheeler and child and Miss Gallus were run into by a motorcycle and side car containing a man and a woman. The cycle and side car struck the radiator and was completely smashed as was also the radiator. None of the occupants were injured. *** Balnarring V. Somerville The above teams met on the ground of the former last Saturday when Balnarring won easily. Once again Somerville had difficulty in getting a team together, eight or nine of the best players being absent owing
to various causes. The yellow and blues have been unfortunate this year, for not once during the season have they been able to put their strongest side on the field. It is hoped that future games will see an improvement in this respect. The game on Saturday was very congested as players in both teams wandered from their places – nearly all being on the ball. The strong wind blowing across the ground was, no doubt, chiefly responsible for this uninteresting football. Balnarring resorted considerably to handball which got them out of many difficulties in the crowded situation. Somerville’s forwards should scout out more instead of hunching together, thus hindering one another. Balnarring’s best players were Van Suylan, Tipping, Hurley and Stone Bros. Buckly had a spell from ruck work, being in the goals all day. For Somerville P. Thornell, N. Unthank, J. Shelton, W. Griffith, and Webb shone out prominently. The final scores were – Balnarring 8 goals 16 behinds; Somerville 1 goal 2 behinds. The game was admirably umpired by E. J. Watt who pleased all hands. *** Heard in the Train That “Jerry” Coxall’s gift of meat to make beef tea for the footballers is much appreciated by both committee and players. That the cold wind blowing across Dromana playing ground on Saturday made the bearers of the beef tea doubly welcome.
That Cr Oates manipulated the big “demi” with a master hand. His frequent invitations to “Have another” being most acceptable. That at the next entertainment given in the Somerville Mechanics Institute, the public are requested to bring their own lamps if they wish to see their way into same. *** MR Purdy has received word that his son Pte A. R. Purdy, is returning next week by the “Soudan”. *** THE Perpetual Trustees’ Association is applying for probate of the will of Henry Scarborough, late of Cranbourne Road, Frankston, farmer, deceased, who died on 25th March last, leaving an estate of the gross value of £4028, being realty £1900 and personally £2128. Deceased was a widower, and his estate is bequeathed to his children in certain proportions. *** MRS FLANAGAN and Family desire to tender their sincere thanks for the sympathy and many kindnesses extended to them in their recent sad bereavement; also for the numerous floral tributes. They desire to specially thank the Nursing Staff of the Chelsea Hospital; also Doctors Atkinson and Grindrod and Father Lee and Father Norris. *** LOST – One leather driving glove on Cranbourne Road. – Reward – “Standard” Office, Frankston. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 21 June 1919

Pythons win grand final rematch DIVISION ONE
By Brodie Cowburn PINES have put Sorrento through another day of misery at Frankston Park, taking all four points in a rematch of last year’s grand final. Both teams played off in one of the most thrilling grand finals in history last year, with Pines eventually claiming the win with a point after the siren. This is the first time the two sides have met since that day. Early on it looked as if things would end up close again, with the lead changing hands at each break of play. Neither side led by more than a kick at any break. Pines led by two points at threequarter-time, and blew the Sharks out of the water in the final term. A seven goals to one last term saw Pines secure the win 16.10 (106) to 9.13 (67). Aaron Edwards had a huge impact for Pines, kicking four goals. The match was a curtain raiser for the Frankston Dolphins’ VFL clash with North Melbourne. The Dolphins performed valiantly and snapped a 20 match losing streak to defeat the Kangaroos 16.14 (110) to 8.12 (60). At Emil Madsen Reserve, Edithvale-Aspendale scored an important win on the road against Mt Eliza. The Eagles have struggled badly this year, and have hovered dangerously above the bottom of the ladder all season. They signalled their intentions with a strong four goals to one first term, but the Redlegs had worked their way back into the contest by half time. Edi-Asp’s chances of picking up the win were helped by their excellent
form in front of goal. At half time they had put seven goals on the board without registering a minor score. The Redlegs could only manage one goal in a low scoring third quarter, as Edi-Asp took their lead out to nine points. They were able to hold Mt Eliza off and get the win 8.15 (63) to 13.4 (82). The victory is Edi-Asp’s second for the year. It puts them a game ahead of Mornington, who find themselves in danger of relegation. Nicholas Connellan was named as Edi-Asp’s best on the day. At Greg Beck Oval, the Frankston Bombers grinded out a good win at home over Rosebud. Rosebud were well on top in the first half, holding the Bombers to just one behind and going into half time with a very comfortable 37 point lead. The Bombers had to dig deep to fight their way back, and dig deep they did. A six goals to zero blitz helped the Bombers sneak their way back into the lead going into the final quarter. They were able to hold on to snatch a character building six point win. The final score read 11.4 (70) to 9.9 (63). The Bombers put on a defensive masterclass in the second half, limiting the Buds to just two scoring shots. The win puts them within striking distance of the top six. Bonbeach also had a good afternoon at home, securing a win over Frankston YCW. The Sharks got the jump on the Stonecats early, and looked in control at half time. They lead by 19 points at the main break. The Stonecats weren’t able to do much to chip the lead back in the second half.
Flying to victory: Pines claimed a 39 point victory in the grand final rematch against Sorrento. Picture: Andrew Hurst
They blew the chance of victory with a poor performance in front of goal. They kicked 6.13 for the afternoon. Bonbeach have Trent Dennis-Lane to thank for the win, as the former AFL player booted five majors. The final score was Bonbeach 10.6 (66) to
YCW 6.13 (49). Dromana kept up their excellent form this year, defeating bottom of the ladder Mornington with ease. The Tigers have proved they can hang with their Division One opponents this season, and currently sit in
second place with just two defeats to their name. Determined not to add another against the Bulldogs, Dromana applied scoreboard pressure all day and eventually secured the four points with an 11.9 (75) to 17.14 (116) win.
Bulls and Hillmen continue excellent form DIVISION TWO
In safe hands: Chelsea managed to tough out a win against Seaford, eventually finishing with a 14 point margin. Picture: Andrew Hurst
By Brodie Cowburn CHELSEA have put themselves in the box seat for a finals spot this season, after they scored an important win over Seaford away from home. Both sides have enjoyed similar fortunes for the year and came into the contest with six wins to their name. With just four points separating third place from seventh place, every win is becoming crucial for sides battling for a finals spot. Chelsea ensured they would get the win with a stunning first term. They booted eight goals to Seaford’s one, putting the contest almost beyond doubt right from the get go. At half time the gap widened, and the Seagulls led the Tigers by 59. Up by close to 10 goals, the Seagulls let their foot off the gas in the second half. Seaford scored 10 second half goals while Chelsea managed just three. Seaford managed to chip the margin down to just 17 points, but ran out of time. Despite the late surge, Chelsea held on to claim the win 12.9 (81) to 15.5 (95). Andrew Silva was important in front of goal and scored five majors. Luke Shannon was also named among Chelsea’s best for the third week running. At the top end of the table, Red Hill kept up their good form with a 45 point win over Somerville.
The Hillmen have been the best defensive team in the competition this season by some distance, and showed that again on Saturday. They restricted the Eagles to just three first half goals. Red Hill enjoyed an even spread of goalkickers again, with nine players hitting the scoreboard. The final score read 9.7 (61) to 16.10 (106). Matthew Hyden scored four goals for the afternoon, while Zach Vines again proved a handy contributor with three. Red Hill’s toughest opponents for the premiership this year will be Karigal, who have still not registered a loss in 2019. Up against Rye at Ballam Park Reserve, they were determined to keep it that way. Both sides traded blows in a scrappy first term, but it was the Demons who went into the half time break with the advantage. They led by nine points going into the second half, leaving the Bulls with a difficult task ahead of them to keep their winning streak intact. Karingal came out in the third term and charged over the top of the Demons, putting their hopes of a shock win to bed. Rye worked hard but couldn’t pull off the upset. They lost to Karingal 11.7 (73) to 6.9 (45). Michael Burke booted four goals for the Bulls in the absence of Marc Holt. At the other end of the ladder, Tyabb fought off Crib Point at Crib Point Recreation Reserve.
Coming off their first victory for the year, Crib Point were looking to upset Tyabb. The Yabbies themselves had only managed victory twice this season, so it loomed as a dangerous game for them. The Yabbies got off on the right foot, and looked comfortable at half time. They led by 35 at the main break. Crib Point gave Tyabb an almighty scare in the third term, chipping the lead back to 11 and making it anyone’s game going into the last quarter. Tyabb managed to hold on, and scored victory 10.5 (65) to 12.14 (86). Matthew Ravenall scored five goals for Tyabb. He now has 21 for the year and 14 in the last three games. Despite losing star recruit Brendan Fevola to injury, Hastings had absolutely no trouble finding the scoreboard in a good win over Pearcedale. They shared the responsibility with 10 individual goalkickers on the day. They took out all four points with an 11.7 (73) to 16.23 (119) win. Langwarrin had no trouble at all at Lloyd Park on Saturday, smashing Devon Meadows by 103 points. The Panthers put just three goals on the board and had a miserable afternoon. The final siren sounded to put them out of their misery with the scoreboard reading 19.14 (128) to 3.7 (25). Josh Biggs scored four goals and was named best afield for the victorious Kangaroos.

Pines hit Middle Park for six SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines recorded its biggest win of the season when it gave Middle Park a 6-1 hiding at Monterey Reserve on Friday night. Pines had just three players over the age of 21 in the starting line-up but got off to a flyer in this State 3 South contest. Not even a minute had been played when Travis Ernsdoerfer surged clear and hammered a low shot past Middle Park keeper Fadi Qunqar. In the fourth minute teenager Meron Negassi was brought down inside the box and Ernsdoerfer converted from the spot after initially striking a post. Eight minutes into the second half CJ Hodgson sent Alex Bevacqua clear but Qunqar brought him down and Hodgson made it 3-0 from the resultant penalty. In the 58th minute Bevacqua returned the favour sending Hodgson clear and his sweetly struck volley gave Qunqar no chance. Two minutes later Pines failed to clear properly and Steven McNamara slid down to make it 4-1 with a shot from close range. In the 83rd minute substitute Bailey Atkinson was at the back post to bring down an errant defensive header and hammer the ball home. That made it 5-1 and when another substitute, Harry Chapman, was brought down inside the area by Qunqar four minutes into injury time a third penalty was awarded and the keeper red carded. Chapman had been taking stick from the Middle Park reserves and a couple of their mates so when he made it 5-1 from the spot he took off towards his detractors eventually doing an airplane slide in front of them. He copped a spray of beer for his troubles and soon tensions escalated and an angry melee developed which included Qunqar who had been watching from the players’ race before joining in the argy-bargy involving players and supporters. Despite the controversial ending Pines gaffer Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor was in an ebullient mood. “I came here determined to develop the league’s youngest team by playing an up tempo, interpassing game with real purpose and that’s what we saw tonight,” Taylor said. “You rarely see football like that on the peninsula.” In NPL2 news Langwarrin drew 1-1 with Melbourne City at the Veneto Club on Saturday night. City scored in the 26th minute when Stefan Colakovski played in Moudi Najjar on the left of the area and his low right-foot volley nestled in the far corner of goal. Langwarrin levelled in the 53rd minute when a mistimed Lucas Portelli shot bounced up off the synthetic surface and was headed home by striker Max Etheridge. Few chances were fashioned in the remaining minutes but City substitute Connor Metcalfe should have hit the target in the 88th minute when well positioned on the edge of the area. Scottish striker John Baird, 33, arrives at Lang-

Double trouble: Frankston Pines’ striker Travis Ernsdoerfer scored twice in the opening four minutes as the local side swamped Middle Park 6-1 last Friday night. Picture: John Punshon
warrin this week for a 10-match stint after being recommended by Socceroo Scott McDonald. Last season Baird was a playing assistant manager at Forfar Athletic and has also played for a host of Scottish clubs including Clyde, St Mirren, Dundee, Partick Thistle, Falkirk, Inverness Caley and Morton. In NPLW news Southern United lost 7-0 to Senior NTC at Knox Regional Football Centre on Sunday. Southern’s under-16s won 1-0 thanks to a Nooria Mohammad goal while the under-19s lost 2-0. In State 1 news goals from Josh Hine (2) and Josh Valadon gave Mornington a 3-1 victory against Eltham Redbacks at Eltham North Reserve on Saturday. Mornington held a mid-season review the following day and expects its results to improve for the remainder of the season. “We played three really poor games in the first half of the season – against Doveton, Warragul and St Kilda – but other than that we have been pretty good,” head coach Adam Jamieson said. “Through the second half of the season we should see a sharp rise up the table but it might be too late to push for the top two.” In State 2 news Peninsula Strikers went down 5-2 away to South Springvale last weekend. The home team’s win was spearheaded by a Miki Gamo hat-trick while both Strikers’ goals came from second-half substitute Matt Harrington. In State 3 news Skye United’s surge up the ladder faltered when it drew 3-3 away to Monash Uni last weekend. Mitch Blake (2) and Daniel Attard scored for Skye who had veteran midfielder Mark O’Connor sent off in the 70th minute for dissent. In State 4 news Seaford United thumped visi-
FRANKSTON FOOTBALL CLUB
tor Chelsea 5-0 on Saturday. Seaford striker Mitch Lander was too quick for the Chelsea defence and had enough one-onones to score two hat-tricks but in the end had to be content with two goals. His first came in the 10th minute when Dylan Waugh put him through and he volleyed the bouncing ball into the far corner. In the 38th minute a Seaford corner was cleared to the left and Kevin Derry swung over a far post cross which Seaford defender Kurt Wagner-Goldsworthy headed home. Seaford’s two-goal cushion was extended by Lander in the 53rd minute when he looked to have overrun the ball but somehow he flicked it up from behind at pace and volleyed it past Chelsea keeper Rhys Davies to make it 3-0. Player-coach Matt Morris-Thomas had come off the bench to rest Waugh and decided to get in on the act by thumping home an ineffective Chelsea clearance in the 72nd minute. Matthias Schwellinger stole in on the left in the 89th minute and completed the rout with a first-time volley that gave Davies no chance. Meanwhile Baxter was impressive in a comefrom-behind 3-3 draw with Springvale City at Ross Reserve last Friday night. Springvale striker Aziz Bayeh scored twice in the first half, his first goal looking suspiciously offside, but Baxter hit back in the 55th minute when Nico Juric set up Lewis Gibson out wide and his low ball to the back post was hammered home by Lawrence Komba. Five minutes later Juric rifled his free-kick into the top corner and in the 65th minute Komba, who was running riot down the left, cut inside and curled in a superb shot to make it 3-2. However Springvale equalised against the run of play in the 72nd minute when substitute Jusuf Pekmezovic was able to tap-in from inside the
six-yard box. While lamenting not claiming all three points Baxter boss George Hughes was upbeat at game’s end. “That was easily the best we have played this season,” he said. In State 5 news the race for the title is on in earnest after league leader Old Mentonians drew with Tullamarine while Somerville Eagles won 3-0 away to Casey Panthers last weekend. The result leaves Somerville just three points behind Old Mentonians and eight points clear of third-placed White Star Dandenong. A predatory brace from Eagles player-coach Dave Greening and one from Mark Pagliarulo sealed the win against an improving Casey Panthers. Panthers’ senior coach Raj Umit was involved in an altercation with the referee in the first half and was sent off and the Panthers’ misery was compounded when a reckless challenge on Eagles keeper Nathan Brown in the 80th minute saw Kahan Umit also red carded. Stephen Curd was man-of-the-match for the Eagles with an outstanding display against Panthers danger man Makiadi Joao. Aspendale Stingrays had to settle for a point in an eight-goal thriller away to Knox United on Saturday. Former Berwick City and Dandenong City striker Anthony Segavac signed with Aspendale last week and took just five minutes to get off the mark when he scored from a Ben Garside cross. Knox striker Robert Taylor scored twice to give the home side a half-time lead and completed his hat-trick two minutes into the second period. A Thomas Brunning goal in the 61st minute made it 4-1 but Kenan Nuhanovic scored twice in nine minutes to make it 4-3 and substitute Luiz Dobre made it 4-4 with just three minutes of normal time remaining. A Ben Gamble strike in the 55th minute gave Rosebud a 1-0 away win over Pakenham United last weekend. Rosebud is now sixth in State 5 South. This weekend’s games: FRIDAY, 8.30pm: Frankston Pines v Monash Uni (Monterey Reserve). SATURDAY, 3pm: Southern Utd v Box Hill Utd (Monterey Reserve; under-12s 9am, under14s 10.10am, under-16s 11.30am, under-19s 1pm), Malvern City v Mornington (Kooyong Park), Old Scotch v Peninsula Strikers (H.A.
