MP backs Dame’s trustees

Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au

TRUSTEES behind a proposal to subdivide and sell off part of Cruden Farm have been given qualified support from Liberal MP Neale Burgess.

Mr Burgess attended a 21 April community meeting held by the Friends of Langwarrin Outdoors and Waterways, opponents of any attempt to rezone

and sell 15.8 hectares of land at Cruden Farm (“Fears Cruden Farm homes plan will ‘impact wildlife’”, The Times 24/4/17).

“Those on the trust are good people,” Mr Burgess, whose electorate includes Cruden Farm, told The Times last week. “They are trying to fulfil their obligations under the trust to look after Cruden Farm.

“No-one wants Cruden Farm to be subdivided, I certainly don’t.

Chair Positions Single or twin motor Standard or large size options

“However, the trustees are endeavouring to fulfil their obligations under the trust to provide for the trust as a whole, over the long term.

“After discussions with the trustees, I believe they would consider other avenues of raising the funding they need.

“I believe there is a great opportunity for the state government to get involved and secure this critically important and historical property on behalf of the community and in memory

Watching brief: Police and SES monitor the landslip from Nepean Highway on Anzac Day. Picture: Gary Sissons

Rain, broken drain cause landslip THE owner of a house in Violet St, Frankston South, was issued an emergency order after heavy rain over the Anzac Day break caused a landslip on a steep slope at Olivers Hill.

The slip caused a gate near the house to move overnight and end up further away – and lower – than it should have been.

Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden said later that “temporary works” by council’s building services team would help prevent further landslips, which it was feared could undermine the family home.

“The property owner is currently investigating a permanent solution, with the site to be monitored by council over coming weeks,” Mr Hovenden said.

“As a precautionary measure, 100 metres of Liddesdale Avenue near the Nepean Highway was temporarily closed. The area has since reopened to pedestrians and traffic.”

Part of the problem was a “minor stormwater drain pipe that had become damaged”.

Frankston SES senior officer Philip Holt said crews assessed the slip about

10.30am on Anzac Day and determined that land movement was “significant enough to close Liddesdale Avenue to car and foot traffic on the north side”.

One lane of Nepean Highway was also closed.

Mr Holt said temporary measures helped make the area safe on the Tuesday night.

Barriers were put in place and nearby residents advised of developments.

A water pump was installed to give the cliff-face “a chance to dry out”.

Home sweet home: Personalised keyrings were handed over to new residents in the presence of their families.

Housing shared and supported NEW shared and supported disability accommodation opened in Frankston North recently was motivated by the “critical lack of suitable housing for people with high complex needs”, according to Community Housing Victoria chairperson Dennis Clark.

“We are committed to doing more as there are a large number of people with a disability wanting suitable accommodation, not only in this region but all across Victoria.”

The six-bedroom home designed, built and managed by Community Housing Vic Ltd, contains two semi-independent units. It will support six people aged 17-27 with complex support needs.

Funding of $1.4 million was provided under the state government’s Innovative Accommodation and Support Initiative to CHVL with Karingal Inc which supports and advocates for people with special needs, securing ongoing funding to support those living in the home.

Frankston Council provided the land on a long-term lease.

The project is a partnership by CHVL, Frankston Penin-

sula Carers Inc, Department of Health and Human Services, Frankston Council and Karingal Inc. “Community Housing Victoria has been providing innovative housing options for those with a disability for more than 23 years,” Mr Clark said.

“We have over 1800 people living with a disability in our housing across Australia. CHVL are pleased to be a part of this unique project which will be a terrific resource for the community.

Frankston Peninsula Carers’ Berryl Gibb said a not-forprofit group supporting parents and carers of children with a disability was “instrumental in raising awareness of the shortage of disability housing with Frankston Council, and in initiating the project by lobbying [the council] to provide the land”.

A common area including raised garden beds, landscaping, seating and a gazebo is offered for the use of residents and their families.

NEGOTIATIONS over a lease for the Frankston Basketball Stadium in Seaford remain deadlocked in the wake of a march by about 500 people demanding Frankston Council rethink a controversial rent proposal.

Marchers demonstrated disquiet on Monday 10 April over council’s plan to raise annual rent paid by the Frankston & District Basketball Association from $30,000 to about $130,000 after a $12.7 million first stage upgrade of the stadium.

It is understood that council and the association are now looking at annual lease payments of about $60,000 each year plus an additional $20,000 after stage one works to install four new courts taking the total number of basketball courts at the stadium to ten.

Lawyers for both parties are involved in negotiations and Sport and Recreation Victoria, a state Department of Human Services department body, is a party to talks between council and the FDBA. A council push to review the operations and management of the stadium

by March next year is a major sticking point amid FBDA fears council will try to “take over” operations of the building situated on council owned land.

The stadium’s construction was originally funded by the association. The FDBA currently has nine years remain-

ing on its existing lease with no review.

An increasingly bitter war of words has seen Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial accuse the FBDA of “holding ratepayers to ransom” during negotiations by “refusing a future council the opportunity to conduct and objective review of the rent payable”.

Association president Gary Emery says council has not negotiated in good faith and the not-for-profit FBDA will fight to ensure increased costs are not passed on to families playing basketball at the stadium.

“The council appears to not want us to be the custodians of the building. They want to take it over themselves.”

Council initially committed $4 million of ratepayers’ money to the expansion to include four new basketball courts alongside $2.5 million of state government money and $5.2 million of federal government money from taxpayers.

The association was prepared to pitch in $1 million of members’ money to stage one of the stadium upgrade but council waived this offer after the FDBA said council was “double dipping” its members by also tripling annual rent.

Labor state MPs Paul Edbrooke (Frankston) and Sonya Kilkenny (Carrum) have called on council to resolve the dispute so the stadium upgrade can proceed.

Children’s basketball games often need to be played late in the evening due to courts often being fully booked during earlier hours.

Taser, ‘bean-bags’ bring escaping burglar down

Where there’s smoke: Langwarrin and Frankston fire fighters battle the Daniel Court blaze. Picture: Gary Sissons

Kitchen fire fought A LANGWARRIN house was damaged by fire when cooking fat caught fire inside the range hood and spread into the ceiling, Monday (24 April).

Captain Clint Lawrey, of Langwarrin CFA brigade, said about 15 per cent of the Daniel Court house was involved when crews arrived soon after 6pm.

Most of the fire was contained to the kitchen, with family members able to escape unharmed.

Captain Lawrey said the brick veneer house was not structurally damaged.

Crews from Langwarrin and Frankston fought the blaze which was brought under control after about three hours.

A MAN who allegedly burgled a Seaford house before stealing a Toyota Hilux utility, credit cards, laptops, phones and a small off-road motorbike while the family was asleep upstairs, will face court next month.

Detective Senior Constable Belinda Rampal, of Frankston CIU, said the man, 26, of no fixed address, was taken down by police outside a Springvale South house, Monday 24 April.

The man allegedly entered the Seaford Nepean Highway house through an unlocked back door, 2am, Friday 14 April.

He allegedly stole keys to the ute as well as two credit cards which he used to “tap and go” 28 times in Seaford, Frankston, Cranbourne and Dandenong over the next few hours to buy cigarettes, petrol, phone chargers and phone credit, before the family awoke and put stops on the cards at about 10am.

Detective Rampall said the man was wanted for “numerous aggravated burglaries” during which he stole printers, computers, credit cards, documents with victim’s names, remote controls, phones, and cigarettes, as well as several cars from the Knox and Yarra Ranges areas.

Three cars, including a Nissan Navarra and a Suzuki, were recovered outside the Springvale house after the man’s arrest. The Hilux stolen from the Seaford house was found

dumped at a Rowville service station after it stalled during an alleged petrol drive-off.

Police had been tipped off to the man’s alleged hideout after he was identified from CCTV footage allegedly using a stolen credit card at a convenience store, and one of the stolen cars was spotted outside.

Police cordoned off the property and demanded the man give himself up but instead he climbed up onto the roof after being tasered and then “bean-bagged” by a police marksman.

The man continued trying to escape, finally being brought down as he attempted to steal a neighbour’s car.

He was taken to Dandenong Hospital for treatment before being remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, Thursday 4 May. Detective Rampall says people should lock doors at night.

“Most burglaries are from houses which have doors unlocked,” she said.

The Seaford family is appealing for public help in finding the stolen trail bike.

The red Electric Gas E12 trail bike valued at $3500 is still missing, along with a bike helmet and boots, after the bike was driven away in the back of the Hilux ute.

Driver’s bad call A MAN has been arrested after allegedly trying to evade police in Frankston last week.

Detectives said they intercepted the man’s white 1989 Mitsubishi light truck, allegedly bearing false plates, in Havana Crescent, 2pm, Tuesday (25 April).

They said the man initially pulled the vehicle over but sped off as detectives approached on foot. The detectives saw the car soon afterwards and again pulled it over.

Senior Constable Alistair Parsons, of police media, said the 26-year-old driver then “made a triple zero call and reported an incident in a nearby street in an attempt to have the detectives redirected”.

Police “soon realised what was happening and diverted resources to his location and not the fictional incident”.

The Frankston man was charged with making a false call to emergency services, driving an unregistered motor vehicle, fraudulently using registration plates, evading police, possessing a controlled weapon, and two counts of failing to answer bail.

He was remanded to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 18 May.

SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol officers chased two cars playing “cat and mouse” at Langwarrin, Thursday night (27 April), after they travelled side by side at speeds of 136kph in an 80kph zone.

Leading Senior Constable Paul Turner, of police media, said police were driving behind the Suzuki Swift and a Nissan X-Trail as they drove east along Cranbourne Rd about 11.30pm.

He said the cars accelerated away from a set of traffic lights and began speeding. When they were intercepted police were surprised to find one of the drivers – a 23-year-old Cranbourne woman – had only had her licence for four months.

Her Suzuki was impounded for 30 days and she will have to pay $1060 towing and storage costs to get it back. She is expected to be charged on summons with driving at a dangerous speed, exceeding the speed limit and carrying more than one peer passenger.

The 23-year-old Frankston driver of the Nissan is expected to be charged on summons with driving at a dangerous speed and exceeding the speed limit.

Peninsula has five of bay’s ‘clean’ beaches FIVE Mornington Peninsula beaches make the top 10 of cleanest beaches in Port Phillip, according to summer testing by Environment Protection Authority Victoria (EPA).

Water quality recorded by the EPA over summer saw Eastern Beach, Geelong, The Dell, Portarlington and St Leonards tied at the top.

Portsea came fifth and Blairgowrie and Sorrento sixth; Dromana and Rosebud were equal 10th.

Over summer the EPA provides twice-daily forecasts for 36 beaches of either good, which equates to suitable swimming conditions, fair, meaning beaches may not be suitable, or poor, which advises beaches are not suitable for swimming.

Other peninsula beaches ranked by the EPA were Rye, 12th; Canadian Bay and Mornington 13th; and Mt Martha 16th.

Frankston was 34th near the coast guard building and 36th at the lifesaving club. Seaford was 19th.

EPA applied sciences group manager Anthony Boxshall said rainfall of more than 10 millimetres was often associated with poor water quality at bay beaches.

“While it was quite a dry summer, Victoria experienced prolonged downpours around the Christmas and New Year’s period that contributed to extended periods of poor water quality at all of the 36 beaches that EPA monitors,” Dr Boxshall said.

“Unfortunately for beachgoers, most of this rain fell just before or during weekends, and usually just before warmer weather, which is when bay beaches are at their busiest.”

Dr Boxshall said that the storms meant EPA forecast poor water quality conditions at beaches for eight per cent of the time in summer, with 15 per cent of forecasts fair and 77 per cent good.

“This compares to the 2015-16 summer where we had six per cent poor, 19 per cent fair and 75 nper cent good. However, this two percentage point difference was an increase of about 200 poor forecasts over the summer, and occurred mostly at peak times of beach use,” he said.

“Eight major creeks and rivers, and more than 300 drainage outlets flow into Port Phillip. Sources of this water include about 5000 underground drains that collect Melbourne’s runoff,” Dr Boxshall said.

“From there, about 540,000 million litres of stormwater containing around 160,000 tonnes of sediment

THE Frankston Centrelink and Medicare offices on the corner of Davey and Young streets will be closed over the next three weeks for fire repairs.

Department of Human Services general manager Hank Jongen said the department was arranging alternative servicing arrangements.

“The department is currently looking at alternative premises for a temporary service centre and will inform the community once the location is confirmed,” Mr Jongen said.

“In the meantime, I encourage people who have non-urgent or routine business to continue to use self-service options, such as the Express Plus Mobile Apps and online and phone self-services.

“The Mobile Service Centre Desert Rose will be onsite to assist people who have urgent business, or those who have complex needs and cannot access our services through other channels or who are unable to attend one of our other sites.

“I want to thank local residents for their patience while these interim arrangements are in place.”

Legal centres welcome ‘funding lifeline’ Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A reversal of “devastating cuts” to funding for community legal centres has been welcomed by federal Isaacs Labor MP Mark Dreyfus.

Planned federal government funding cuts that had been planned to take effect on 1 July but federal Liberal AttorneyGeneral George Brandis announced last week the government will provide an extra $55.7 million over the next three years to the legal services sector as part of the 2017-18 budget.

About $39 million of that money

will go to community legal centres and $16.7 million to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander legal services.

The National Association of Community Legal Centres also welcomed the decision to abandon plans to cut funding to legal centres by about 30 per cent.

Mr Dreyfus said any cuts to Peninsula Community Legal Centre funding would “hit the local community incredibly hard”.

“It would have resulted in the loss of free legal advice for some of Frankston and Kingston’s most vulnerable residents,” he said.

National Association of Community Legal Centres CEO Nassim Arrage said

the announcement is “excellent news for all those people who rely on the help of CLCs every day”.

“This funding is a lifeline for a sector that was facing significant cuts,” Mr Arrage said.

“The reversal will mean people across Australia will get access to the legal help they were going to be denied from 1 July if the funding cuts went ahead.”

Mr Brandis said the grant was the largest ever single commitment on an annualised basis by the federal government to the legal assistance sector.

He said it was not a one off, ad-hoc payment.

“These arrangements will give the

sector the resources … and certainty they have been asking for.”

Mr Brandis said the government was adding $39 million to women’s and domestic and family violence services.

“Since we announced the women’s safety package in 2015, public awareness of family violence has escalated dramatically,” he said.

“The Women’s Legal Service has been at the forefront of that advocacy.

But I also want to, of course, acknowledge and single out Rosie Batty for her leadership in public advocacy of the issue.

“The growing public awareness of the issue has seen a parallel increase in

people coming forward needing help.”

He said the $39 million over the next three years would go to family law and family violence services to provide “targeted, trauma-informed legal assistance to thousands of women who may otherwise not have received the help they need”.

The funding allocation will be finalised with the states and territories under the National Partnership Agreement.

“The government has always recognised the essential role of the legal assistance sector in providing access to justice for the most vulnerable Australians,” Mr Brandis said.

Man sought over sexual assault

Sudden impact: An elderly woman’s car smashed into a Thai takeaway store at Langwarrin. Picture: Gary Sissons

Surprise entry at Thai takeaway AN elderly woman’s car crashed through the front window of the My Spice Thai Takeaway at the Gateway Shopping Centre, Frankston-Cranbourne Rd, Langwarrin, Sunday 23 April.

Her Toyota Corolla mounted the footpath hitting another car and ending up inside the shop – the second time this type of incident has occurred at the shop in the past five years.

Business owner Jenny Giuffre said up to $20,000 damage was caused when the woman, 75, made her unexpected entry at 4pm.

“She told police she hit the accelerator instead of the

brake,” she said.

“Now, all the front of the shop has to be changed. It’s the second time this has happened to us in the past five years.”

Ms Giuffre said she was discussing possible safety measures with centre management, such as having bollards out front.

Acting Sergeant Jason Morel, of Frankston police, said no charges would be laid but a review would be conducted.

“It was a good result because there were no injuries.”

POLICE set up an information caravan at Seaford train station, Friday, in an attempt to glean information about a man who attacked and sexually assaulted a woman in Seaford earlier this month.

Sexual Crimes Squad detectives say a 19-year-old woman was walking home from the station along Railway Parade, near Seaford North Reserve, 3.10am, Saturday 1 April.

They said she stopped briefly near bushes at a church car park where she was attacked from behind by an unknown man and sexually assaulted. The man ran off in an unknown direction and the woman walked home and raised the alarm.

Acting Sergeant Melissa Seach, of police media, said the man had a tanned complexion with brown hair, thin build and an Australian accent. He was wearing jeans with a belt and a dark coloured T-shirt. He has a distinctive mole on the left side of his cheek or chin and small teeth.

The victim’s black jeans and a Nike runner were left at the scene and police are keen to speak to anyone living nearby who may have seen items of clothing.

Detective Sergeant Rodney Neylan is

“I appeal to the conscience of the man to make contact with us,” he said. “We are gathering evidence which is being analysed so it is only a matter of time before we identify him and knock on his door.”

Driver’s costly car impound A SEAFORD man has had his car impounded after being pulled over by Frankston police in Seaford on Wednesday afternoon, 26 April 2017.

The grey Toyota Lexcen, with expired registration, was being driven along Railway Parade about 4.15pm.

The 63-year-old driver, with a disqualified licence, found himself in more trouble when he returned a positive preliminary breath test. He was taken

to Frankston police station where he returned an evidentiary breath test reading of 0.034 per cent.

Police later said that, while the blood alcohol limit for a fully licensed driver is 0.05 per cent, it is zero for anybody else. Unlicensed drivers need to be 0.00 or they can be charged with drink driving.

The man’s car was impounded for 30 days at a cost of $1032.

Protect the Green Wedge, it also has a heritage We applaud the plan to open Cruden Farm, Langwarrin up for community use in accordance with the late and sincerely lamented Dame Elisabeth Murdoch’s wishes. However, we do not favour the idea of subdividing off 15.8 hectares of the land for residential development.

This land would need to be excised from the Green Wedge and would set a precedent for more such proposals involving the carving up of green wedges for good causes (“Cruden Farm homes bid” The Times 10/4/17).

You can just see many other landowners lining up for the same sort of treatment.

There is precious little Green Wedge land remaining; we can’t afford to lose more.

Last month, the Minister for Planning [Richard Wynne] released Plan Melbourne 2017-2050, that contains the following commitment: “Maintain a permanent urban growth boundary around Melbourne to create a more consolidated, sustainable city.”

It would be very difficult for the minister to approve the rezoning of Cruden Farm and the movement of the Urban Growth Boundary before the ink is even dry on the new plan.

We suggest that the land proposed for subdivision could still be sold for an appropriate Green Wedge use, such as farming or recreation, without threatening the future of this and other green wedges.

Trevor Shewan, president, Defenders of the South East Green Wedge

Wedges nibbled I have to say, it still amazes me every time some organisation or individual tries to get away with nibbling a little more of our green wedges.

The proposal to hive off some 15.8 hectares off Cruden Farm in Langwarrin for housing development is obviously a kite being flown by the

trust administering Dame Elisabeth Murdoch’s beautiful estate.

This would set a very bad precedent for all Green Wedge land on the peninsula. Some of the recent Mornington Peninsula Shire and Frankston councils’ decisions around the peninsula seem to confirm our green wedges are in serious trouble of being diminished to seemingly benefit cashed-up developers.

I sincerely hope with this one, Frankston Council will strongly recommend against such an alienation of our irreplaceable green wedges.

I’m sure Dame Elisabeth would have provided sufficient funds to keep the trust in financial equilibrium.

‘Pie-in-the-sky’ ideas Bayside Gymnastics Club representatives expressed concern that the club might be excluded from the $14 million sports centre proposed for Centenary Park at some indeterminate time in the future (“Gymnastics ‘on the outer’”, The Times 24/4/17).

As someone who has observed over several decades the way Frankston Council operates, I just want to caution the club against getting into a lather over the matter.

Frankston Council regularly makes a lot of noise about various projects without one scintilla of evidence as regards where the funding will come from, and this is one such thought bubble, along with a perennial wish to electrify the rail line to Baxter, and pie-in-the-sky construction of a marina at Olivers Hill, which I note receives a fifth (or is it the sixth?) mention, in council’s plan for 20172021.

The club would be well advised to look elsewhere or stay where it is, for the foreseeable future.

John Clarke on set A beautiful piece from Keith Platt on a great man, John Clarke (“Defender of the bay dies hiking in the hills” The Times 17/4/17). I worked with John in two films, television and on stage.

Satirist extraordinaire, storyteller, actor, director and thoroughly nice man.

I wrote the following in a blog: “Melbourne Cup Day 1986. Always a long day’s rehearsal under director Armfield, the Monday, ‘Away’ by Michael Gow. Up at 7am to work at Yarra Glen for a 10-hour day. After, a drive to Melbourne, Kingsway, a part in a half hour movie, ‘Man and Boy’ written and directed by one John Clarke with an old mate Terry Gill and a new boy, Frank Magree. 9.30pm, a night shoot, till around 4am.

Eventually located the previously unknown (to me) director looking like an extra, having a beer.

Offered me one. Accepted. ‘Any instructions?’

I asked. ‘Improvise,’ he said. I did. We shot a scene and he said ‘More. Don’t worry about it.

Take it as far as you like.’ Unusual, but it suited me.

A three-hour sleep and back to another brutal day’s rehearsals. Did other stuff with the man but it was a play I remember best. A police commissioner, last minute replacement for another actor who became unavailable. Lots of words, John the writer, also playing the judge, script on his desk. Got to a line and memory deserted me.

John intervened: ‘Perhaps you were going to say’ and delivered my line. John was the sort of chap who makes you feel good to have known him, and very much the smartest, as well as the nicest man one could ever hope to have known.”

Thursdays, no more, John Clarke and Bryan Dawe. Sad, left with magic memories.

Foot, knee or leg pain?

OUR feet and legs are vital for mobility and balance and are the basis of most of our daily activities, so its no wonder most people suffer foot, knee or leg pain at some point in their lives. But what can you do about it?

We asked the experts at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics to shed some light on common foot and leg concerns:  The most common concerns include: knee pain, injuries and arthritis; heel, shin and forefoot pain; ankle and achilles concerns.  Many conditions are misdiagnosed and incorrectly treated, so its important to find an experienced musculoskeletal or sports podiatrist to assist.  Bad foot posture can continually pull your body out of alignment, which can contribute to postural aches / pains and undue stress on joints and tissues.  Early symptoms for diabetes, arthritis, nerve and circulatory problems often show themselves initially in the feet.  Traditional treatments such as cortisone, anti-inflammatory medications and joint arthroscopies are now outdated for conditions such as foot and leg pain and arthritis, and have been found to delay healing and cause further tissue damage in many cases.  We now have effective, natural medical alternatives and treatments for such conditions.

Regenerative therapies such as Prolotherapy and PRP (platelet rich plasma) are helping many to

heal injuries and assist degeneration.  Foot and leg problems left untreated usually get worse, however most foot & leg concerns can be addressed relatively easily and effectively with appropriate treatment.

“By combining the latest regenerative therapies with a sound knowledge of musculoskeletal medicine, biomechanics, and load management strategies to assist stresses through joints and tissues, we can aid or eradicate pain, increase mobility, repair injury and regenerate tissues to assist arthritic concerns – naturally,” say the experts at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics.

If you need assistance with foot or leg pain, Foot & Leg Pain Clinics have convenient clinic locations across Victoria including Mt Eliza, Rosebud and Moorabbin. Mention this article for $50 OFF initial consultations. Call 1300 328 300

But what is the Pension Voucher Program?

Due to the immense size of the hearing industry in Australia, there is a branch of Medicare that specifically deal with Pensioners and their hearing, known as the ‘Office of Hearing Services (OHS)’. For Pensioners and Veterans, if required, OHS will subsidise a pair of hearing aids (~$1,400) or a set of listening devices to assist with your hearing needs. Pensioners and Veterans who wish to purchase hearing aids outside the Government free list, this is referred to as a ‘Top up’, the ~$1,400 will be transferred over, meaning you only need to pay for the balance of the Top up hearing aids.

Do I need Top up hearing aids?

Top up hearing aids have more features than the basic model and are usually more cosmetically appealing. Choosing the right hearing aid is dependent on many factors: your lifestyle, cosmetics and cost, just to name a few.

At Stay Tuned Hearing, we understand that everyone is different and has unique needs. We do not have a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we tailor our assessment and advice to your individual hearing needs. If appropriate, we always provide a 30-day free hearing aid trial to give you peace of mind as you can try before you buy.

Given hearing aids are a medical device and a big investment that is supposed to last five years, people often forget to shop around. Shopping around will allow you to compare prices and services. In the hearing industry, aftercare service for your hearing aids is vital for your continued satisfaction.

Most people do not know what they are eligible for. So, if you have any further questions, or if you feel that your hearing is not what it once was, or you are having trouble with your current hearing aids, please call us on 9708 8626 to arrange an appointment and we will endeavour to find you a solution.

pronated

MY name is Robin Tu and I am the local Audiologist for the Peninsula Community at Stay Tuned Hearing in Mt Eliza. Lately, there has been some news and incorrect information surrounding hearing aids, which I would like to clarify.

At Stay Tuned Hearing, our award-winning service is second to none. We are a small, independent, private hearing aid clinic. But what does that mean for you?

Because your clinic is small, does it mean your hearing aids are more expensive?

Because we are a small hearing aid clinic, we do not buy hearing aids in bulk. This means we are not pressured to sell a particular hearing aid to get rid of stock. Furthermore, because we do not pay millions of dollars to managers and CEOs and/or pay for staff commissions, we have low overhead costs and this allows us to pass on the savings to our customers. As a small clinic, we are very flexible and accessible, meaning we can provide quick and responsive clinic and home visit appointments so that you do not have to wait months to be seen.

What is the difference between independent and everyone else?

Being an independent clinic means that we are not owned or contracted to prescribe a particular hearing aid manufacture. We do not have sale targets and are able to service all leading manufacturers.

Then what does ‘private clinic’ mean?

A private clinic indicates that we can service all adult rehabilitation, which includes Pensioners, Veterans, Worksafe and Privates. Non-private clinics do not service Worksafe and Private clients.

How much do hearing aids cost?

For most people, the cost of hearing aids start from ~$1,400 for a pair. But if you are a Pensioner or Veteran, the Government Pension Voucher program will subsidise that cost of ~$1,400.

Line’s ‘cause and effect’ study Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au A COMPREHENSIVE environmental study will be carried out to investigate whether rail under road can be built along the Frankston line at Bonbeach and Edithvale as part of the state government’s level crossings removal project.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority confirmed this month that state Labor Planning Minister Richard Wynne decided an Environmental Effects Statement (EES) is needed to determine whether the neighbouring Edithvale-Seaford Wetlands will suffer if rail trenches are dug to remove level crossings at Bonbeach and Edithvale.

The state government initially announced in February that elevated rail, dubbed sky rail by opponents of raised rail, would not be built along stretches of the Frankston line.

Rail under road, subject to the possible need for an EES, was the preferred engineering option to separate road from rail at Bonbeach and Edithvale.

The LXRA referred a report by consultants GHD and Aecom to the state Planning Minister in March that warned possible “long-term and ir-

reversible” impacts on the environmentally-sensitive Ramsar-listed wetlands if rail goes under road at Bonbeach and Edithvale.

Sharp-tailed Sandpipers, Australian Bittern, Curlew Sandpiper, Southern Brown Bandicoot and Growling Grass frog were some of the wildlife species that could be threatened by a potential rise of 0.1 metres in groundwater “mounding” at the Edithvale section of the wetlands if rail trenches are dug.

Vulnerable flora such as River Swamp Wallaby Grass Amphibromus fluitans and Swamp Everlasting Xerochrysum palustre could also be impacted by groundwater not flowing readily from the wetlands due to rail trenches.

“Rail under road has been identified as the preferred option at both Edithvale and Bonbeach,” the LXRA has said.

“Two trenches, approximately eight metres deep, 12 metres wide and 1000 metres and 1100 metres long for Edithvale and Bonbeach, respectively, will be constructed within the existing rail corridor.”

The Planning Minister will release “scoping requirements” for the EES as part of the next stage of the study.

Mt Martha Bendigo Bank branch manager Kerry Debernadi and Fran Henke on the collection run for this year’s Winter Blanket Appeal.

Family warmth is ‘sorted’ DOONAS and pillows for the Winter Blanket Appeal handed into the Mt Martha Bendigo Bank branch have been added to a load already collected from branches at Hastings and Mt Eliza.

“You’re going to need a bigger car,” branch manager Kerry Debernardi told Fran Henke helping to take them out.

“This was the biggest load in all the years I’ve been helping with this appeal”, Mrs Henke said.

“My heartfelt thanks to those generous people who have left doonas and knitted clothing for needy Mornington Peninsula families, particularly given the recent cold snap”.

The bags will be sorted by volunteers from

Southern Peninsula Food for All, then passed on to Mornington Peninsula Conference of St Vincent de Paul for to needy families.

“Blankets were not wanted this year as young families prefer doonas. However knitted scarves, beanies, mittens and jumpers for boys and girls are always welcome. Donations of unwanted wool can also be made for knitters who can’t afford to buy wool. These too can be left at any peninsula branch of the Bendigo Bank. Hastings branch has wool available for example,” Mrs Henke said.

“We couldn’t do this without the support of branch staffers who are delighted by the generous incoming donations so early this winter.”

SET within a magnificent 2,600 square metre estate, in one of Mount Eliza’s most prized locations, this immaculate residence showcases the ultimate balance of technology and lifestyle for exceptional family living on a grand scale.

Framed by landscaped courtyard gardens, the front entrance welcomes you into a wide foyer where engineered oak timber floors create a handsome first impression.

A sleek kitchen has a full complement of quality appointments including Caesarstone bench tops to a central island bench; there is a dishwasher,

and a Falcon electric oven has a gas cook top with skillet.

An enormous butler’s pantry has a recessed area for a double fridge; there is a porcelain double sink and a second dishwasher, with endless cupboards and drawers catering to all your storage needs. The kitchen is incorporated into a larger family room with a casual meals space which opens through glass sliding doors to an alfresco timber deck.

A solid timber staircase sweeps you up to the first floor where two more bedrooms, both with ensuite and built-in robes open from an excellent kid’s room with airconditioning. Equally impressive are the numerous external features of the property. A three-car garage is fully insulated and offers even more storage room, alongside the pool is a tennis court, and a separate pool house, a completely dazzling structure in its own right, has bathroom and kitchen facilities with concertina doors opening from the lounge.

1a Fuji Crescent and 5 Kenji Street, MORNINGTON $1,000,000 plus Kevin Wright Commercial, Suite 1/26 McLaren Place, Mornington, 5977 2255 Jamie Stuart, 0412 565 562

IN the industrial heart of Mornington, this prominent building on the corner of Kenji Street and Fuji Crescent offers two separate titles to be sold as one. Providing two storeys of quality office and warehouse space, this address benefits from excellent access for larger vehicles, great exposure to passing traffic and plenty of natural light. A fine investment, the property in Fuji Crescent is leased to an ASX listed tenant and has an annual return of about $40,000 per year. The second property in Kenji Street is available now with vacant possession for either a tenant or owner-occupier. There is about 172 square metres of clear-span warehouse, a small production office and staff amenities. Fully leased, these two properties could potentially generate a passing income of some $60,000 per annum (plus GST and outgoings) and on a purchase price of $1,000,000 this represents about a 6% yield.

BOB EVANS GETS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL

Age of Showbiz” and “My Matilda” are both songs that just missed out on being recorded for ‘Goodnight, Bull Creek!’ back in 2008 and ‘Car Boot Sale’ just last year.

“I just like ‘em and wanted to give them their moment.”

Speaking on the complimentary six track EP for online ticket buyers, Mitchell says, “I have so many songs that have almost made it on to records in the past but have just missed out for one reason or another and I’ve always wanted to share them with people and I thought this would just be a good way to say thank you to the people who support me.”

lead way back when I was a teenager just starting out, making an almighty racket with Jebediah.

“I have been gifted a pretty amazing life and career and I still get such a huge buzz out of it.

“Knowing there are people out there who have been supporting me for years and years just blows me away and makes me want to be better.”

To give fans a taste of what’s coming, Mitchell has released a live acoustic video of My Matilda, a track from this exclusive package of unreleased material. “The Golden

Mitchell has enjoyed nearly a quarter of a century of success in the music industry, initially as the frontman of Jebediah, who burst onto the music scene in the mid nineties, right through to Bob Evans today.

But how has the changing face of music changed the way he and his fellow band members have worked?

“Sure, the industry has changed. A lot of people say that now live shows are so much more important due to digital music. You can’t rely on album sales anymore.

“But for us, it was always about live music.

We never recorded an album and then sat at home watching the royalty cheques roll in.

“We toured. And we toured hard. We toured continuously and that set up our foundation for what we do today.

Jebediah are still touring, and Mitchell splits his time between Bob Evans and Jebediah duties, all while being a dad to two young kids.

“It works well. I won’t say it is the easiest, or the most efficient way, but I’ll do some touring, then head home for a bit, and then do some more.”

While at home, it is a simple studio in his garage where he collects his thoughts, writes songs, and does his demos. All important work, but not the same as getting in front of a crowd.

“Touring is the thing. It is enjoyable and rewarding. I just love to get in front of a group of people and share some time with them.”

“I’ve honestly been doing it for such a long time now that I wouldn’t know what else to do with myself.

“A lot of the time, I feel more comfortable and more myself when I’m onstage than off of it and the feeling of satisfaction I get from playing a good show is unbeatable.”

Tickets to the Lonesome Highways Tour are on sale now. All tickets purchased through www.bobevans.com.au and other online outlets will receive an exclusive six track EP of unreleased material.

When Bob Evans takes the stage at Baha Rye on 1 June, the audience can expect a show that is personal and intimate.

One gets the feeling chatting to Kevin Mitchell, whose Bob Evans persona has won him critical acclaim, that he’d be just as happy if the crowd were up on the stage with him. Possibly kicking back on couches.

“It will be relaxed and interactive. I’m playing a really broad selection of songs going right back to the first record in 2003, right up to last year’s release.

“We’ll play some music. I’ll take some requests. I’ll probably stuff a few songs up, but by the end we’ll be best of friends”.

When he takes the stage in Rye, Mitchell will be freshly back from two shows of the tour in Japan, as well as a host of other shows around the country.

“I’ve never been to Japan before. Never even transited through the airport, so it will be a great experience. It worked out perfectly.

They wanted me over there just when there was a gap in the schedule, so off to Japan we go!”

After the release of his critically acclaimed LP Car Boot Sale, and following a packed out co-headline tour alongside Josh Pyke in late 2016, the Lonesome Highways Tour will arrive on the Mornington Peninsula on 1 June.

Gracing the Australian music scene for more than two decades, Mitchell is a selfconfessed romantic who has written some of the country’s most beloved songs.

Under the alias of Bob Evans, Mitchell has released five albums, all of which showcase the versatility and skill of this talented songsmith.

Gentle, acoustic melodies prevail, enveloping the classic folk storytelling and strong emotional pull that charactises Mitchell’s substantial body of work.

Reflecting on his remarkable career, the ever-humble Mitchell says, “I never could have forseen where all of this was going to

INTRODUCING MORNINGTON ARTISANAL Mornington Peninsula Brewery is proud to introduce Mornington Artisanal – a selection of uncompromised and distinctive hand-crafted ales.

The first release of Mornington Artisanal is Old Pumping Station; Mornington Imperial Stout aged in Shiraz barrel presenting beautifully in a 750 ml bottle double sealed with cork and cap.

It is filled with dark chocolate and cherry aromas, hints of anise and berries laying throughout a textured and malty palate.

It is perfect for drinking now or cellaring for 1-3 years, but we certainly recommend sharing this drop with your friends and family. It is one to savour.

The name Old Pumping Station derives from a local surf spot on

the Mornington Peninsula. The illustration is created by local artist, Josh Brown from The Snakehole.

Old Pumping Station is currently available for purchase at the Brewery Bar. Allocations will be going out soon to stores, and will be listed on Mornington Peninsula Brewery’s website and Facebook page.

SUPERHEIST GET SET TO ‘RAISE HELL’ After a 13 year hiatus ARIA nominated, Australian metal outfit SUPERHEIST are back and one thing is for sure, they are here to RAISE HELL. The band who have achieved gold record status and previously toured with rap god EMINEM are coming in hot. Superheist have delivered a heavy hitting and uncompromising AAA Side in a brazen display of what is arguably the band’s best work to date.

Kicking off with ‘Raise Hell’ a hectic four minutes of in your face, thought provoking nu metal. Followed by ‘Got The Bounce’ an explosive mix of Wu Tang meets Messhuga perfectly walking the line of Hip Hop and Metal. Last but very not least ‘Fully Loaded’, a punchy and to the point track showcasing Ox’s versatile and powerful vocals.

In it’s history Superheist has seen a slew of famous faces, but the current line up is your ultimate rock n roll fantasy league.

Enter Ezekiel Ox of Full Scale and Mammal fame, John Sankey of The Devil You Know and Devolevd complimented by returning bassist Si Durrant In:Extremis and Acid Wolf Keir Gotcher Insolence and Snot on second guitar and of course Superheist stalwart and founding member DW Norton.

Superheist will be playing at The Grand Hotel, Mornington, on Friday 23 June. Tickets at grand.oztix.com.au or www.grand.net.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Push to reopen the school in the old Tyabb township Compiled by Cameron McCullough A DEPUTATION from Tyabb waited on Mr H. S. W. Lawson, Minister for Education on Tuesday for the purpose of requesting that the school in the old township be re-opened which had been closed recently.

It was suggested that in order to reduce expense women teachers should be placed in charge of this school and the school near Tyabb railway station.

Mr. Lawson promised to inquire into the matter. It was mentioned that the cost of the two schools at Tyabb had been £440, and that the present outlay on the school, near the railway station, which is in charge of a man teacher, is £285. *** THE net result of concert held on Easter Saturday in aid of Frankston Branch of the Red Cross Society, arranged by Presbyterian Young Mens’ Bible Union. amounted to £17 15s 6d. *** THE Secretary of the Frankston Athletic Club has handed £14 to the Frankston District Roll of Honor Fund, this being the net result of New Year’s Day Sports.

The total of the Honor Fund now reaches £90. *** A PATRIOTIC meeting was held at the Seaford Hall on Saturday evening last in support of the Win-The-War candidate of the electorate.

Mr Fox addressed the meeting with his well known humour and eloquence. *** THE Frankston Juniors were again hopelessly overmatched in their game

of football with the Mornington lads last Saturday on the Frankston oval, the game finishing with the scores at 7.15 to 1.2.

A game will be played this afternoon between teams chosen from Frankston and Langwarrin Camp, on the ground of the latter. *** SUNDAY next will be observed as Foreign Missions Day in the Frankston Methodist Circuit. Rev E Tonkin will conduct services bearing on the subject at Frankston 11 a.m, Langwarrin 3 p.m and Somerville 7 p.m.

Mr H. G. Overton, Circuit Secretary and Treasurer for Foreign Missions, will officiate at Frankston in the evening. *** THE net profits of the Colonial Bank of Australasia Ltd. for the six months ended 31st March 1917 amounted to £27,024 2s 9d.

This is after providing for a 10 per cent bonus paid to the Staff on the amount of their salaries for the half year.

The Balance Sheet which has just been published shows what a strong position the Bank is in.

The balance sheet as usual shows great strength in Coin Bullion, Debentures, and other liquid assets which amount to no less than £2,013,941.

This is more than would be required to meet the total of the non interest bearing deposits and is equivalent to 44.8 per cent of the total liabilities of the Bank.

It is proposed to pay a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent, per annum on

both Preference and Ordinary Shares and place £10,000 to the Reserve Fund making £20,000, for the year and raising it to £280,000.

The solidarity of this institution should be most gratifying to its shareholders, as well as to all depositors. *** AMONGST the troops who left for the front by the “Ballarat” on 19th Feb last, and which was torpedoed in the English Channel on Anzac Day, was the 2nd section of the Australian Railway Unit.

Some of them being well known in this district, especially Sergeant McFaul, engine driver, was well and favorably known during his lieutenancy as Q.M. at the Military Camp, Langwarrin.

The flag and banner “Australia will be there” which was presented to him by a few friends in Frankston prior to his departure, was displayed on the railway pier, Port Melbourne by Sgt. McFaul, and was taken on the ill fated Ballarat.

Also Cpl Percy Prater, engine driver, the once brilliant Frankston football player. Pte Fred McFee of Ryall Phillip Island, (an anzac) electrician, and Pte W. G. Connal, fireman.

This was Connal and McFee’s third trip together. The first being with the 5th Victorian Mounted Rifles to South Africa in 1901; the second with 4th Light Horse Reg. A.I.F. in October 1914, both were invalided home and after their discharge volunteered several times but were rejected as medically unfit for active service.

When the Railway Unit was called for, they at once made application and

were accepted. As all lives are saved, they will truly still be comrades in arms we hope. *** Is marriage a failure, or no?

To answer is nobody’s place; Only time and experience will show, To each individual case.

What’s worse than a very bad cold ?

Nothing, we feel pretty sure– The best thing to take we are told Is Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. *** Our Letter Box. FORESHORE PRIVILEGES. To THE EDITOR. Sir,–It is to be hoped that the Shire Council will not adopt the recommendation of its Inspector to encourage the erection of motor garages on the foreshore.

The proposal is an outrageous one, and the reasons given for its adoption are inadequate.

The Inspector says that “unless Mr G. E. Thomas is allowed to house his motor car on the foreshore, Frankston, will probably lose this citizen as a resident”.

Even if this assumption is correct (which it probably is not) then by all means let Mr G. E. Thomas go as his presence in Frankston at weekends and on odd occasions would not, I think, compensate the permanent residents for the dangerous precedent of allowing him to have a motor garage on ths foreshore.

If the privilege be allowed to him, it must of course, be allowed to others and soon the beauty of the foreshore would be a thing of the past, with the probable result that Frankston popu-

larity would speedily wane.

Apropos of his motor garage which the Inspector says is a boat shed, I should like to point out that the only means of ingress on the seaward side is a small door 2ft wide, which no boat could pass, and that the floor level is 3 feet above the sand level.

Of course it is a motor garage and always has been.

With regard to the extensive structure under Oliver’s Hill the Inspector says it has the appearance of two very good boat houses built together.

Well, appearances are deceptive!

It consists of a long low shed and two rooms well lighted and finished.

A nice little tank is erected at the back projecting into one of the rooms with (I believe) inside tap attached.

One room has seats with table (movable) in the centre and on two occasions I have seen a jolly party of ladies and gentlemen having cakes and tea (all hot) in the room referred to.

The billy is boiled just outside, while the faithful motor car waits on the Morninging Road.

Anyone can see it and there is no attempt at concealment.

This is all very cosy and pleasant but is the structure not something more than a boat-house and bathing box?

I hope and believe that the matter may safely be left in the hands of our Councillors.

Yours etc.– L. R. N. UTBER. 3/5/17. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 5 May 1917

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Clear and Presidential Danger

By Stuart McCullough WELL that didn’t take very long. Just eight short weeks after being thrown the keys to the White House and the new President is already at serious risk of losing his deposit. That’s barely enough time to get the utilities changed over and start an account at the local Video Ezy. And yet in the space of a couple of months, here we are; sniffing distance from the Apocalypse and with no clear idea as to how things might end up.

The Cuban missile crisis was a little before my time, so I’m not sure what it’s like to be quite this close to the precipice. But I’ve seen Mad Men and I gather it was touch and go there for a little while. I do remember the Cold War as it gradually began to defrost during the eighties. Before that, we’d be reminded once a year or so in primary school that we all lived under the shadow of ‘mutually assured destruction’. Inevitably, when talk turned to the end of civilization as we knew it, I’d wonder whether finishing my maths homework was really worth the bother. Then class would end and we’d all run outside and throw acorns at each other.

It wasn’t just in the classroom that we were reminded of the precarious state of our existence. Movies, too, went out of their way to tell us we were living on borrowed time. Films like ‘War Games’ taught us that, not only did Ferris Bueller have a dark side, a floppy disk and a dodgy modem was all you needed to make a computer named after a hamburger think it should start warming up the missile

silos. If that wasn’t enough to make you give up sleeping and start digging a bunker between the Hills Hoist and the veggie patch, there was also, ‘The Day After’.

The television movie ‘The Day After’ scared the absolute daylights out of anyone unfortunate enough to see it.

Starring Steve Guttenberg, who would

go on to star in the even more terrifying ‘Police Academy’, the film depicts the consequences of an all-out nuclear war between the USA and Soviet Union after a dispute about a shipment of leg warmers escalates. We were forced to watch it at school. Everyone knew it wasn’t much of a film, but the importance of ‘the message’ meant that we

were expected to overlook its faults, which were many and varied.

The movie ends with Professor Joe Huxley – played by the wonderful John Lithgow – talking into a makeshift radio and asking, ‘Is there anybody there?’ At least John Lithgow survived. ‘Third Rock From the Sun’ wouldn’t have been the same if he hadn’t. When the lights came up, many of my classmates seemed shell-shocked. But we soon got over it. So despite being burdened with the knowledge that the world as we knew it might end at any time and that Steve Guttenberg might be one of the first casualties, we still managed to ride our bikes, kick the football around, fall in the creek and do all the other things you do when you’re growing up.

At some point things began to change. The shroud of perpetual enmity slowly started to lift. Mostly, this seemed to be because Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev hit it off on a personal level, each hosting the other on alternate Sunday afternoons for barbecues and to watch episodes of ‘Who’s the Boss’ that Nancy had taped on the presidential Betamax. Pretty soon, the very idea of the world’s two preeminent super-powers bombing each other into oblivion seemed faintly ridiculous. Steven Guttenberg was safe for the time being. It made life seem slightly lighter somehow.

Things only improved further when David Hasselhoff demolished the Berlin Wall with nothing but his bare hands. Communist troops spontaneously threw down their weapons as Hoff’s sonorous tones delivered his

masterful interpretation of Ted Mulry’s ‘Jump In My Car’. The love affair was later sealed with a Billy Joel concert in Moscow in which he successfully stripped the irony out of ‘Back in the U.S.S.R.’ without being sent to a gulag. Humanity was saved. By the time I graduated high school, the risk of an apocalypse had substantially receded.

It’s interesting to wonder what the eighties might have been like without the likes of Mikhail and Ronald.

One thing’s for certain; Kim Jong-un is no Mikhail Gorbachev. For starters, he has that weird proclivity for exterminating members of his immediate family that, if nothing else, must make Christmas kind of awkward. Plus, he’s oddly committed to a savage centre part that, had he attended Tyabb Primary School in the seventies, would undoubtedly have earned him the nickname ‘Bum-head’ and resulted in an horrific wedgie. Perhaps that’s why he’s got both a chip on his shoulder and a tonsorial backside on his head.

And Donald Trump – the closest thing we’ve ever seen to a human Magic 8-Ball – is certainly no Ronald Reagan.

I’ll admit the whole thing’s making me feel uneasy. I haven’t asked, but I’ll bet Steve Guttenberg feels the same way. I never thought I’d say it, but perhaps ‘The Day After’ could have a sequel. Granted, ‘The Day After 2’ is the obvious choice, but I’d prefer ‘The Day After the Day After’. With President Strangelove in the White House, maybe I’ll need that bunker after all.

Sharks’ stars in doubt

PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt MPNFL stars Tim Bongetti and Aaron Edwards will be racing against the clock to be right for the Sharks country championships match against Geelong FL at the MCG on May 13.

Bongetti limped into the top of the table clash against Frankston YCW on Saturday and left the field midway through the third term. His left thigh was heavily strapped after he copped another hit on it early in the first quarter.

Aaron Edwards camped himself at full forward and hardly moved from there, despite willing himself to the contest on a few occasions. Suffering a back injury, one wondered why Edwards would have even bothered playing in the round four clash. Arguably the best player the competition has seen in the past 10 years, Edwards must now be in doubt to represent the Sharks in a fortnight.

One wonders whether a fit Bongetti and Edwards would have made a difference to the 9.15 (69) to 6.6 (42) result.

Considering the domination of Christian Ongarello (Edwards’opponent) and BJ Credlin (Bongetti’s opponent), you could argue that they would have made a big difference.

In an ugly, uninspiring and uneventful game, there was only 10 points separating the sides at the final change.

Despite that, Frankston YCW al-

Shark attack: Bonbeach took the points against Langwarrin. Picture: Scott Memery

ways appeared to have another gear or two, which they displayed in the final quarter, booting four goals to one.

While Tony Lester celebrated his 250th game, Kyle Hutchison his 150th and Kevin Lylak his 100th, the win was more about the next generation of players for the Stonecats.

Luke Paynter is a bonifide star and looks very much at home in the seniors – he’s the next BJ Credlin.

Matt LaFontaine was the best player on the ground. The Collingwood VFLlisted player controlled the game and

despite the Pines’ heat early, not once did he not put his head over the footy.

In fact, not one YCW player backed away. The likes of Joey Lane, Paul Theobald, Mark Berenger, Rohan Forrest and co would have been proud.

Maklin Raine is getting better with every match, Angus Wright looks comfortable at the level and Lachlan Street was superb. You can throw Tom Capp and Jake Lovett in the mix too.

The Stonecats have class everywhere.

From last year’s premiership for-

ward half, the Stonecats were missing Lew Roberts, Dave Bodley, Anthony Bruhn and Sam Widdowson – there’s 130 goals right there. Only Roberts won’t return.

On Saturday, Riley Hodson, Anthony Barry and Michael Debenham were also missing.

The Stonecats just keep breeding the next generation.

Pines just isn’t in the same class.

Lachy Marshall and Nick Boswell have been great additions, and they both played well, however, the depth of Pines’ class is way off where It needs to be to challenge the best.

Paul Scanlon was easily the Pines’ best player and was one of the best three on the ground.

Mt Eliza and Mornington played last Tuesday (ANZAC Day) in a tough contest and were burned by the four day turn around in their respective matches on Saturday.

Now maybe Edithvale may have still beaten the Dogs and Chelsea may have caused an upset against Mt Eliza, however, we all know that the fourday break played a significant role.

AFLSE made a huge mistake with the fixturing and both the Dogs and Redlegs would be fuming behind closed doors.

Take nothing away from the Eagles and Gulls though.

Edithvale turned around a 20-point deficit at three quarter time to boot seven goals to zip in the last. The Dogs

were dead on their feet, losing 14.13 (97) to 17.12 (114).

Will Flavelle and Charlie Martello booted four each and Chris Wylie starred.

Paul McGettigan and Dale Whelan booted five each for the Dogs.

Chelsea trailed Mt Eliza all day too but booted three goals to one in the last quarter to win 10.10 (70) to 9.10 (64).

Jack Francis was sensational for the Gulls, booting four goals, Curtis Bywater played his best game in four years and Aaron Pawel played his best game for the Gulls.

The Redlegs had a number of changes from Tuesday’s team but Shaun Knott played his first game and impressed with three goals.

Seaford continues to impress, smashing Karingal 17.21 (123) to 9.10 (64).

Matt McCormack was sensational for the Tigers with seven goals while Dean Williamson and Aaron Walton were superb.

Michael Burke in game 301 and Damien Ashcroft in game four were the best of the Bulls.

In the final game, Bonbeach led Langwarrin at half time by just a point but booted seven goals to three in the second half to win 12.11 (83) to 8.8 (56).

Trent Dennis-Lane booted three goals and Jackson Casey dominated again for the Sharks.

Blues take the Tiger by the tail NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt IT may have taken five matches of football to get there but reigning Nepean champions Hastings slipped into top gear on Saturday against Dromana.

The Blues found the spark it has been looking for and booted seven goals to one in a blistering first term and by half time had opened up a 68 point lead. The final score was 22.22 (154) to 8.5 (53).

Hastings’ form before this match had been ordinary, despite the fact that it won three of its first four matches.

Its match against Frankston Bombers last week proved to the defending premiers that it had some work to do to recapture its form of late 2016.

Premiership coach Brendan Dunne told the RPP Footy Show on Saturday morning that his team had a few hiccups early in the season.

“We had a faultless pre-season but into the practice matches and early in the season, we got a few injuries and niggles to some key players,” Dunne said.

“We have been just off it a little but I was really happy that we were able to get some wins despite being below our best.

“Hastings teams of the past wouldn’t have won those early games so I’m really happy with the resolve of the group,” Dunne said.

Dunne said that his players were not complacent and were “just as hungry” for more success.

“Like I said, the boys came back in great shape and we had a really great pre-season – it’s just those hiccups that affected us early,” Dunne said.

There were no signs of early-season bad form on Saturday with Ricky Fer-

raro back in the team and dominating and Josh Mulheron controlling the ruck.

Luke Hewitt was back to his best with seven goals in a dominant display and Luke Clark was also back for the Blues and playing well.

It wasn’t a great day for the Tigers.

Cameron Carmody ripped a calf which robbed it of a tall and left Adam Hunter to spend time in the ruck.

On the eve of the match, there was more good news for the Blues. Former

Somerville coach David Hirst trained with the Blues on Thursday night and is set to make his return.

Frankston Bombers held on to win a thriller against Red Hill.

Both teams came into the game with good form and in a tight contest, it was going to come down to a little bit of luck on who won the match.

In the dying minutes of the game, Red Hill failed to get a 50m penalty after Allan Williams was reported by two umpires. The result was a missed opportunity, Frankston taking it to the other end of the ground and converting to make the difference nine points.

The Bombers booted two goals to two behinds in the last to win 8.5 (53) to 6.9 (45).

Once again, Red Hill dominated early in the match but just couldn’t convert its opportunities. Frankston, without stars Beau Muston and Alex Harnett (both leg injuries), made the most of its opportunities.

Collingwood premiership player Chris Dawes made his debut for Sorrento on Saturday and was one of four players to boot three goals in the teams big 22.22 (154) to 2.6 (18) win against Crib Point.

It was the first sign of the Player Points System ‘issue’ that Sorrento has with Justin McCleary dropped to the seconds to make way for Dawes. Some would say it’s a great ‘issue’ to have.

Nick Corp booted three and was one of the team’s best yet again while Daniel Grant and Luke Tapscott dominated.

There is no love lost between Sorrento and Crib Point and the Sharks would have loved nothing more than to bury the Pies on their own turf.

Brad Arnold and youngster Riley Bowman were the best of the Pies.

It was a big day for Rye, winning its first match of the season against Pearcedale.

It has been a tough start to the year for the Demons and it didn’t get much worse than last week against Sorrento, however, it put that behind them and led for much of the day to beat the Dales.

Tim Churchin booted four goals and Oscar Whitty and Matt Whelan three each while Ben Winters-Kerr kicked a couple in his 200th game. Winters-Kerr will play his 200th senior match in three weeks time.

Harry Prior was once again the best of the Dales while Danny Marshall finished with four goals.

Devon Meadows made it two wins on the trot on Saturday, beating Tyabb by almost 12 goals, 21.9 (135) to 10.4 (64).

Allan Murray continued his superb start to the season with nine goals while Jesse Bowe and Kyle Salerno with five goals starred.

Jordan Alves with three goals was the best of the Yabbies.

In the final game of the round, Rosebud bounced back from its shock defeat last week, smashing Somerville by 48 points, 14.17 (101) to 8.5 (53).

The Buds jumped out of the blocks and iced the game in the first quarter, booting eight goals to one.

Keegan Downie was back to his best with seven goals while Jack Jarman was his side’s best player for the second week in a row.

Kane McKenzie and Luke Burton were the best of the Eagles.

NPL striker joins Langwarrin as Kenny returns SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN has thrown down the gauntlet to other title contenders by signing Scottish striker Liam Baxter from NPL outfit Goulburn Valley Suns.

And the State 1 South-East leader will strengthen further with the return of gun central defender Kieron Kenny who went back to England in March following a family bereavement.

Kenny is due to arrive in Melbourne tomorrow (Tuesday).

Baxter, 24, was on the books of Scottish Premier League outfit Inverness Caledonian Thistle until he was 17 when he decided to leave to get more first team football.

He played in the Highland League with Brora Rangers, Buckie Thistle and Forres Mechanics before arriving in Melbourne in January.

He had a topsy turvy spell with the Suns, scoring in his first game, being sent off in his second match and being involved in a serious car crash in Shepparton in February and suffering leg and pelvic bruising and lacerations which sidelined him for a few weeks.

Langy team manager Robert Mathieson senior drove to Shepparton last Thursday and took Baxter to his new home, a sponsor’s property in Langwarrin where his housemates are teammates Aaran Currie and Alex Metcalfe.

Kenny is held in high regard by Langy’s coaching staff and the former Macclesfield Town youth team captain has played in the Swedish Second Division with Gaellivare Malmberget.

Langy signed him from English club Congleton Town in the Hallmark Security League where he formed a formidable central defensive partnership with recent Langy import George Whiteoak.

When Langy’s veteran goal machine Caleb Nicholes returns from his Kokoda Trail trek next week he’ll be part of the strongest first team squad assembled at Lawton Park for years.

“It’s the sort of selection headache you like to have,” said long-serving Langy gaffer Gus Macleod.

Langy picked up what could prove to be a valuable away point on Saturday when it drew 0-0 with Warragul and remains the only unbeaten team in the league.

Mornington was in control for most of Saturday night’s 2-1 away win against bottom side Mooroolbark.

Mornington central defender Simon Webster opened the scoring in the 24th minute when the Barkers failed to deal with a corner presenting Webster with

Langy lad: Langwarrin’s new Scottish striker Liam Baxter.

a tap-in.

The visitors went further ahead in the 59th minute courtesy of a back post header from livewire forward Wayne Gordon and Barkers striker Sam Klepac replied late in the game.

Mornington has lost two strikers from its senior squad in the space of a week as Michael Freeman has joined Gino Defeo in search of more game time.

Defeo is playing assistant coach to Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor at Westgate while Doveton and Knox are believed to be vying for Freeman’s signature.

Mornington boss Adam Jamieson remains in the hunt for new players.

Peninsula Strikers broke through for its first league win of the season on Saturday, a 2-0 derby triumph against Seaford United at North Seaford Reserve.

A superb Chris McKenna ball sent Aziz Bayeh through in the 15th minute but he shot straight at Seaford keeper Harrison Burgess.

Two minutes later a Danny Brooks free kick on the left was headed wide

by Trevor Johnston.

In the 21st minute Seaford midfielder Paul McGuire sent Alex Roberts clear on the left and he played the ball across the face of goal but Troy Williams slid down and cleared.

The deadlock was broken in the 24th minute when Seaford failed to

Sudoku and crossword solutions

deal with Johnston’s long throw and Brooks hammered home the loose ball from close range.

Tom Natoli crossed from the right in the 36th minute and Roberts’ spectacular overhead kick sailed just wide.

A minute later the home team was staring down the barrel when a defensive blunder enabled Bayeh to skip clear on the right and his cutback was met by Alex Hopson who took a touch before striking a low shot that eluded Burgess to make it 2-0.

A weak shot by Mitch Lander in the 41st minute was the first time Seaford was on target but a minute later Lander forced Strikers’ custodian Colin McCormack into a fine low save.

Lander was thwarted by McCormack again in the second half as was Seaford teammate Tom Natoli while Roberts blew a gilt-edged chance by blasting high and wide from close range.

Strikers’ head coach Craig Lewis and assistant Billy Buchanan were sent off in the second half while Seaford remains anchored to the foot of the ladder with just one point.

Frankston Pines went down 3-0 away to Doveton on Saturday thanks to goals from Senahid Tokalic, Shane Tagliaferro and Nasir Mohammad.

Mauritian international Christopher L’Enclume remains sidelined as the wrangle over his international clear-

ance continues.

Skye United maintained its perfect league record in State 3 South-East with a 3-1 away win over Riversdale last weekend.

Skye striker Nick Theodore opening the scoring within the first five minutes when he got on the end of a cross from English import Jacob Scotte-Hatherly.

This was followed up by a quickfire double from winger Jason Nowakowski.

In the 16th minute he ghosted in at the front post to head home from a Mark O’Connor cross, and then the two linked up again to make it 3-0 after just 20 minutes.

Riversdale’s Jon Foley-Donoghue pulled one back in the 48th minute after waltzing through the midfield and picking out the top left-hand corner to the despair of Skye goalkeeper Jonathon Crook.

Chances went begging for O’Connor and Wumjock Jock, however the damage was done and Skye held its nerve.

Skye can maintain its promotion momentum when it takes on Sandringham on Wednesday (5 May) at Skye Recreation Reserve in a revised round one fixture with the reserves kicking off at 6.30pm and the seniors at 8.30pm.

Three days later Skye again is at home when it hosts South Yarra in the annual John Ramsden commemorative match.

Baxter beat Keysborough 3-2 at Coomoora Reserve last weekend in a bruising State 4 South encounter.

Liam Kilner opened Baxter’s account in the 10th minute from close range and Ben Meiklum’s perseverance down the left in the 19th minute paid off when he squared the ball for Kilner to get his second by hammering the ball home from the edge of the area.

A clumsy Markus Oliphant challenge inside the area gave Keysborough a penalty in the 61st minute and Deni Tintor converted.

Mark Pagliarulo gave Baxter breathing space in the 65th minute when he finished from a tight angle after an excellent solo run.

Keysborough substitute Bruno Silva made it 3-2 in the 80th minute and the match ended on a sour note after a horror tackle on Baxter teenager Travis Ernsdoerfer who had to be carried off.

The striking partnership between Dave Greening and Michael Turner proved too much for Dandenong South on Saturday as Rosebud Heart powered to a 5-2 win at Fotheringham Reserve.

Turner’s off-the-ball run in the 8th minute dragged a defender wide and

Blake Hicks put Greening through and he slotted it past Dandy South keeper Semir Zekirija.

The home side hit back through Ali Demiri in the 17th minute but three minutes later a Turner free kick nestled in the bottom corner to make it 2-1.

In the 33rd minute Zekirija failed to get to a ball to the back post and Greening’s volley made it 3-1.

A free kick from the left was headed home by Lindurim Tairi in the 56th minute to make it 3-2 but Heart’s twogoal cushion was restored in the 65th minute when Greening squared for a Turner tap-in.

Heart keeper Sean Skelly saved from the penalty spot with 10 minutes to go and in the 89th minute Turner sent Greening through only to be brought down inside the area.

Greening completed his hat-trick from the resultant penalty.

Heart midfielder Adam Poole will have surgery on Tuesday to repair a ruptured Achilles and Heart head coach Scott Morrison flies to Thailand next Saturday night to attend his sister’s wedding and will miss the club’s round 7 away clash with Endeavour Hills Fire.

Somerville Eagles gained a second point of the season with a 1-1 away draw with Pakenham United on Saturday despite having five senior players unavailable.

The State 5 South contest was scheduled as a Somerville home game but the council failed to cover the cricket pitch in time so the match was switched to IYU Recreation Reserve.

Pakenham’s Keegan Bloomfield was sent off for violent conduct in the 7th minute and Paul Walker put Somerville ahead in the 22nd minute after a Matty Roach cross which Pakenham keeper Allan Bateman failed to attack allowing Walker a simple tap-in.

A fine finish by Pakenham’s Ciri Mernica in the 80th minute earned his side a share of the spoils and Somerville’s James McKenzie was given a straight red in the 90th minute.

This weekend’s games: SATURDAY, 3pm: Langwarrin v St Kilda (Lawton Park), Mornington v South Springvale (Dallas Brooks Park), Frankston Pines v Peninsula Strikers (Monterey Reserve), Seaford Utd v Mazenod (North Seaford Reserve), Skye Utd v South Yarra (Skye Recreation Reserve), Baxter v Endeavour Hills Fire (Baxter Reserve), Rosebud Heart v Keysborough (Truemans Road Recreation Reserve), Dandenong Warriors v Somerville Eagles (Lois Twohig Reserve).

Australian Opals star returns home

By Jarrod Potter MELBOURNE Boomers unveiled its Women’s National Basketball League (WNBL) centre-piece on Thursday after bringing Liz Cambage home.

Cambage, 25, originally from Mt Eliza, will lace up for her first home season in five years in the upcoming 2017/18 WNBL season.

The 25-year-old centre won a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics with the Australian Opals, has played in the Women’s National Basketball Association for the Tulsa Shock and has also had several other professional achievements throughout China.

After a year of soul-searching and contemplation spent away from the court, Cambage returns refreshed and ready to take her place in the Boomers’ front-court.

“I really needed a break, especially after Rio,” Cambage said.

“I needed a mental and physical break and I’m so lucky that I get to come home to Melbourne.

“I thought I was going to retire after Rio – I definitely hadn’t achieved everything that I could but I got to a point where I felt like I wasn’t going anywhere.

“So having this year off has really made me see that I love basketball, I do love playing basketball but there are other things that are important to me as well. “(The Boomers were) my family when I left the AIS and it was my first team in the WNBL and to be gone for six years and come back to Bulleen becoming the Melbourne Boomers and still have the key values – family

and the youth and just so together… it means a lot.”

Cambage is no stranger to the Deakin Melbourne Boomers; as a 19-year-old, she was a key player when the team won the 2010/11 WNBL championship.

She attempted a return to Austral-

ian shores, but snapped her Achilles tendon, leaving her unable to join in the 2014/15 season.

But that time garnered her perspective as she continues to evolve as a player and a person. Therein lies the great amalgam of work-life she can experience at Melbourne.

“Three years ago I did my Achilles and I learned a lot about myself and the sport and the major thing I took out of that was that sport is not forever and I’m not going to be an athlete forever,” Cambage said.

“So I came back from that injury, trained with Guy (Molloy) and he got me ready for China.

“That’s why it’s so great coming to play with the Boomers as I get to study Deakin as well – I get to start thinking about stuff after sport and when I am done with basketball.”

With a trophy cabinet featuring national championships earned with elite Victoria Metropolitan women’s teams over the years, a WNBL championship and her Olympic accolades, there is still plenty of desire to hoist the championship and return to the podium with her beloved Boomers.

“I’d love to win another championship – I haven’t won anything since I was 19 with the Boomers so I want something sparkly,” Cambage said.

“I know the board and Guy have been working so hard to get the players that they want and with me, Jenna O’Hea and the girls they have and the girls they’re still trying to get, I think we’re looking very, very strong.”

Cambage, who starred for the Opals at the 2016 Rio Olympics where she contributed a tournament-high 23.5 points and 10.3 rebounds per game, is looking forward to getting back on court in front of her home city supporters.

Coach Guy Molloy said that having the Opals players, Cambage and O’Hea, on board would contribute

Star filly searches for dry track

By Ben Triandafillou THE Shane Nichols-trained three-year-old, I Am A Star, will be hoping to recapture its previous winning form when it heads to Adelaide to take on the fillies and mares in the million-dollar Group One Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m).

Failing on the drenched Heavy 8 Randwick track in the Group One Doncaster Mile (1600m), I Am A Star will be searching for a dry track at Morphettville on Saturday 6 May. “She ran in the Doncaster but the track was just too wet,” Shane Nichols said.

“Turning for home she tried to quicken but her legs were just spinning and she wasn’t able to make up any ground, she needs a firmer surface.”

Prior to the Doncaster Mile, the daughter of I Am Invincible had an exceptional lead up, winning the Group Two Kewney Stakes (1400m) at Flemington against the fillies as well as a dominant three-length victory in the Group Two Sunline Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley.

“She has run well, defeating both the fillies and the mares in Group Two races as well as

winning the (Group One) Myer Classic in the spring,” Nichols said.

“She’s had one run at the (Morphettville) track in a Group Three race as a two-year-old and won easily.

“She takes travelling very well and has done a fair bit of travelling for a three-year-old; being bred in New Zealand, to then being sold in Sydney and has raced in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney.”

I Am A Star will be aiming to be the first filly to win the Robert Sangster Stakes since Rostova, an outside chance, won the Group One in 2010.

In doing so, the filly will face a highly competitive field with the likes of the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained, English, the undefeated South Australian runner, Desert Lashes, and the Lindsay Park contenders, Sheidel and Fuhryk, all being nominated.

However, Nichols is confident the filly can run a big race as long as the weather is favourable and the track isn’t too soft.

Girls making a mark on the peninsula

By Ben Triandafillou THE Mount Eliza Junior Football Club will have the only female footballer from the Mornington Peninsula joining the under-15’s School Sports Victorian Team this year.

Saige Bayne, the 2016 Joan Hill Medal runners-up, will be joining the Victorian team to play off at the National Championships in Perth on the 22 July.

Bayne, 14, was also one of the youngest girls to join the Dandenong Southern Stingrays under-18 Girls TAC Cup side this season.

“Saige started three years ago when Mount Eliza had an all-girls competition in the under-13s, she was 11 at the time and has been playing ever since,” proud father and president of the Mount Eliza Junior Football Club, Fraser Bayne said.

The Mount Eliza Redlegs also had the 2016 Joan Hill Medal winner, Eloise Allen-Burns, and Isobella Shannon playing in the under-18s Stingrays side.

to the development of the rest of the Boomers’ roster.

“To have the leading scorer in Liz from the Rio Olympics and the second leading rebounder it automatically, not to make a rod for our back, but we’re championship capable with Liz coming in, with Jenna coming in and the other girls returning to our group,” Molloy said.

“So it makes for a very exciting year for us and I can’t wait to get going in late August.”

Deakin Melbourne Boomers chair, Tony Hallam, said Cambage would add muscle to the Boomers’ in a quest to return to the playoffs, along with fellow new signing Jenna O’Hea, also an Australian Opal.

“Liz’s return marks an exciting time in women’s sport in Australia, with growing public attention and support.

Liz is one of the very best players in the world,” Hallam said.

“Today marks a significant moment for our club, our partners, and most importantly, our members.

“It also means the Boomers’ rapidlygrowing fan base will see the very best Victorian talent in action right here in Melbourne, we’re thrilled that Liz is coming home to play.”

The Deakin Melbourne Boomers have now announced seven players for the 2017/18 WNBL season with Cambage and O’Hea joining young gun Monique Conti and returning stars Maddie Garrick, Bec Cole and Britt Smart, along with second-year guard Bec Ott. An eighth player will be announced in the coming weeks.

continued to expand their junior girl’s teams and currently have over 150 players across seven girl’s teams.

“The Mount Eliza Junior Football Club has started to become inundated with junior girls off the back of the AFL Women’s league,” Bayne said.

The Mount Eliza Redlegs has also been able to put together their first under-nines all-girls side which will be coached by Rebecca Lanting.

Competing in the open division, the girls previously had to join the boy’s sides due to being low in numbers, but this season will team up and take on the boys.

“We are receiving more enquiries daily and hopefully next year with the new oval in play we can get more girls team up and running,” Bayne said.

“We want to continue to grow girls footy at the club and are excited by the participation rates to date and hopefully our girls team will continue to be successful on and off the field.”
