Music helps make a Splash on Mondays Seaside serenade: Journeyman musician Kevin Vis brings music and calm to Rosebud foreshore every Monday. Picture: Gary Sissons
TOOTGAROOK musician and raconteur Kevin Vis has lived a colourful life, travelling the world seeking adventure and meaning, and creating music wherever he goes. New Zealand-born Vis has worked in the fitness industry and been a landscaper and boat skipper, and even played fictional Australian character Keith Elliot in the Swedish soap opera Friends and Enemies. There were many distractions and deviations before he found his way to the Mornington Peninsula in 2001, including playing in bands in Europe and rubbing shoulders with the glitterati of the international music world, but he says his Rosebud gig for the homeless is the most rewarding and humbling. Vis plays with his partner Dee Brown as the duo The Calmer Miles at venues around the peninsula, but every Monday he takes his guitar to Rosebud foreshore where he strums away in the background while the Splash team provides support and food for rough sleepers and those in need.
He says some people listen, some hum along, and others just carry on with “their business”, of surviving. “But the wonderful thing for me is that it’s a great vibe down there and it’s a great feeling to be able to add to that vibe and see some smiles and people humming or just lying under a tree tapping their toes to the music,” he said. “There is such a need in the community at the moment, and I’m only there for an hour or so but it’s great to being part of something that is good and positive.” Vis says there is “a lot of energy” to the scene at Rosebud foreshore when the Splash team visit on Mondays, and he feels he can be a “pied piper” to draw people in to enjoy the music. “Music does that, it brings people in, and I’d even like to bring some drums and maybe get people involved in the music,” he said. During his Monday sessions, Vis plays an aptly named Vagabond guitar, which he helped design with Seaford guitar aficionado James Cargill, son of guitar maker Merv Cargill. Liz Bell
poor community satisfaction survey results (Shire again misses survey satisfaction, The News 21/6/23). Dillon said a Transparency and Integrity Hub would offer “streamlined access” to “selected” and “curated” information which “may” include financial records, asset management (the shire’s capital works program), procurement data “and more”. “This online hub will allow visitors to explore and visualise data, providing an overview of the shire’s decision-making and activities. This will require the procurement of a suitable web-based platform to publish these datasets for open consumption.
“It will also require the collection, cleansing and curation of each dataset to ensure it is accurate and ready for release.” After Gill’s notice of motion was defeated last month, he said listening to the arguments against providing more information reminded him of the saying: There’s nothing to fear but fear itself. Race, who opposed Gill’s motion but now wants a Transparency and Integrity Hub, said “It comes back to the unintended consequences of a little bit of information because they say, to use that expression, a little bit of information is dangerous.”
‘Transparent council’ Take 2 Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillors were this week to again set to grapple with the concept of transparency and the release of information to the public. Part of the shire’s official “mission” is “keeping you up to date with what is happening across the shire in an open and direct way”, but last month councillors voted five to four against publishing summaries of their secret discussions, or briefings, with officers. Cr David Gill, who proposed the defeated motion, said while briefings
were noted on agendas the details remained secret and it could be up to six months before they came back to council for a decision (Transparency backed, but ‘secret’ talks stay, The News 28/11/23). At this week’s public meeting Cr Sarah Race asked her colleagues to spend $200,000 to $300,000 on establishing an online Transparency and Integrity Hub to provide “unprecedented access to the city’s finances and provide greater scrutiny over how council spends ratepayers’ money”. Establishment of the hub would “allow the shire to be leaders in transparent and open government”.
The “broad and deep” information on the “digital portal” about finances, council decisions and activities would be “intuitive, interactive, auditable and downloadable by selection”. “Stories will be developed to provide context to the data and to assist the community to discover more about how council works and to engage with council data based on areas of interest,” Race said in background notes to her notice of motion on the agenda at Tuesday’s public council meeting. Customer and transformation manager Patrick Dillon, in a report on the agenda, said the hub proposal was being made “to address” the council’s

Voices call out on safety for women STANDS were taken and voices raised to highlight the issue of violence against women at a White Ribbon Day in Mount Martha to start 16 “days of activism”. Organised by Mount Martha Uniting Church, the event on Saturday 25 November included a panel discussion about “action” on violence against women. Panel moderator Ruth Stuettgen said feedback from the day had been positive, with attendees saying it was “amazing and informative”. “Spreading awareness was one of our goals and it's heartening to see it sparking conversations,” she said. The panel of speakers – which included the head of the Family Violence Investigations Unit Detective Senior Sergeant Tracy Meyer, supported by Senior Sergeant Andrew Horscroft, Cr Despi O’Connor and the founder of Restart Your Life Retreats, Tessa Jetson - gave insights into their work. Stuettgen said the panel discussion proved an indispensable part of conversation. The seven objectives of the White Ribbon Day event were to elevate awareness of the issue and resources available, unite the community to address women’s safety, pave the way for changing attitudes, expectations, and acceptable behaviours, provide guidance, and raise money for a Re-
start Your Life retreat. “As we reflect on this event, let it serve as a catalyst for ongoing activism, conversation, and collaborative efforts to create a safer and more compassionate community for all,” Stuettgen said. “Behind every family violence statistic is a story of pain, suffering and loss. They are the stories of our sisters, daughters, mothers, or friends and they are the stories that must drive us to action. “ As a community we can no longer turn a blind eye. We simply must speak out against this violence and work together to create a more respectful society. “Mt Martha Uniting Church, under the leadership of the Reverend Peter Wiltshire, aspires to create a community committed to lifelong learning, actively engaging in the principles of social inclusion, compassion, pastoral care, and social and environmental justice. “As such, bringing the White Ribbon Day event to life, as part of the 16 days of Activism on the Mornington Peninsula, is an integral part of upholding these values and aspirations.” The 2023 charity of choice for the White Ribbon Day event is the Tessa Jetson Foundation.

THE Mount Martha Sea Wolves bathe daily at dawn. Picture: Noah Smith Fletcher
Inspiring howls from Sea Wolves THE second annual Flinders Fringe Festival in February will be headlined by Sea Wolves Howl, a theatre piece based on a group of women who daily plunge into the sea at Mount Martha. Written and performed by Mornington Peninsula artist Carole Patullo with Jane Bayly, Melanie Beddie and Kelly Nash, the piece was commissioned by the festival. Direction and dramaturgy are by Melanie Beddie with music by John Thorn. The Mount Martha Sea Wolves, an
intergenerational group of up to 60 Mornington Peninsula-based women and non-binary people, gather on the beach daily at dawn. As they hold hands and enter the sea the women howl like wolves in what is described as a transformative ritual. Patullo and her collaborators are developing Sea Wolves Howl from stories gathered from the swimmers. “… It will embrace the life-affirming spirit of the Sea Wolves and celebrate the transformative power of
the sea,” she said. Sea Wolves Howl will be performed at the Flinders Community Hall from 22 to 24 February and tickets can be bought at flindersfringe.com.au. “To have the privilege of inhabiting the characters that emerge, and bring them to life, is incredibly satisfying,” Patullo said. “There is something very powerful about the act of storytelling; when stories from lived experiences are transformed into theatre, the response from community is profound.”

Tributes flow for ‘courageous’ Peta Murphy Brodie Cowburn brodie@mpnews.com.au PETA Murphy’s first speech as federal member for Dunkley quoted her literary hero, Pippi Longstocking. Pippi was being warned by her friend Annika to refrain from competing against “the world’s strongest man”. “Man, yes,” said Pippi. “But I am the world’s strongest girl, remember that!” The speech came just weeks after Murphy received a devastating cancer re-diagnosis. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011, and again in 2019 around the time she was elected the first ever female member for Dunkley. Murphy carried Pippi Longstocking’s attitude with her during her four years in parliament. In spite of deteriorating health, she continued to work hard for the people in her electorate who needed a fighter on their side. Last Monday, 4 December, Peta Murphy died. She was 50 years old. In the week since her death, tributes to her have poured in across the country. The Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was the first to declare his admiration for Murphy on the day of her death: “While Peta’s was a life so very well lived it is hard to come to terms with the fact she is no longer with us passing at just 50 years of age. Far too young with so much more to offer. “Peta Murphy was brave, she was courageous, and she was loved. Peta Murphy was the strongest of local members, the most inspiring of colleagues, and the very best kind of friend.”
In Murphy’s final days her wish to be surrounded at home by those she held most dear was granted. Her husband of 24 years, Rod Glover, released a joint statement alongside her parents Bob and Jan and her sisters Jodi and Penni on the day of her death: “We loved her deeply and are so, so proud of her achievements, her character and her courage. She was indeed the strongest girl of all. Still giving sassy advice until the very end - she died the way she lived - with dignity and strength and a touch of sarcasm to boot.” In her maiden speech Murphy spoke of her love for her family, describing her husband as “compassionate” and “brilliant”. The couple had two dogs Bert and Ernie. Murphy was born in Goulburn in 1973. Before her election she worked in law. She was a barrister at the Victorian Bar from 2008 to 2016, including a two-year stint (2012 to 2014) as a senior public defender at Victorian Legal Aid. She unsuccessfully ran for Dunkley in 2016 before her 2019 victory and was reelected in 2022 with an increased margin. Murphy’s ill health did not repress her tenacity in Parliament. She fearlessly took on Australia’s billion dollar betting industry over its conduct in a senate inquiry this year. The final report, which recommended that advertisements for online gambling be banned in the next three years, was one of the crowning achievements of her tenure. Even in the final days of her life, Murphy continued to work. She travelled to Canberra for the most recent
sitting week and attended Parliament the day before her final hospitalisation. The mayors of Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula both praised her local impact. Frankston mayor Cr Nathan Conroy said “going above and beyond to advocate for Frankston City was in Peta’s DNA. She was both fearless and tireless in delivering for her community.” Mornington Peninsula mayor Cr Simon Brooks echoed the sentiment, saying “as a result of Peta’s advocacy for our community, the lives of countless local residents who use the reserve will be enriched for many years to come”. Outside of politics, Murphy was a sports fanatic. She was a force to be reckoned with on the squash court, and a frequent fixture at local sporting events. Murphy was a tireless advocate for breast cancer research and funding. Her maiden speech highlighted the importance of checking for cancer. “Let’s be frank, cancer sucks,” she said. “Ladies, check your breasts. Men, stop ignoring what your body's telling you. Fellow members of this parliament listen to the experts who warn that the promise of universal health care is under threat. Commit to the reform and funding that our health system needs and do whatever is required to ensure that Australia trains, retains, and invests in the health care professionals and researchers who make our system great. We owe it to our community to do that.” For more information on breast cancer screenings visit breastscreen.org.au

Stress and struggle of Christmess SAFETY Beach actor, singer and film producer Cindy Pritchard will be part of a Q&A following the screening of her new film, Christmess, at Rosebud Cinema at 7pm on 14 December. Pritchard is one of the producers of the Australian indie film, written and directed by Heath Davis. The film stars Steve le Marquand (2 Hands, Broke) Darren Gilshenan (Colin from Accounts) and Hannah Joy from indie band Middle Kids, while Pritchard also has a role. Le Marquand plays a once famous actor with an alcohol addiction who is fresh out of rehab and gets a gig performing as Santa Claus in a mall. After accidentally meeting his estranged daughter (Nicole Pastor), he seeks help from his sponsor (Gilshenan) and a musician in recovery (Joy) to try to win his daughter’s forgiveness in time for the festive season. Critics have called it an “honest” and a hilarious interpretation of Christmas with all the elements of the festive season – expectations, anxiety, economic struggle, stress and alcohol excess. Writing in the 30 November issue of The Conversation, Ari Mattes, lecturer in communications and media, University of Notre Dame Australia, said Christmess “lingers in the imagination far longer than most Hollywood-scale productions”. He rated the cinematography by Chris Bland as “excellent – it looks like it’s been shot for cinemas and not streaming, making the most of the wide aspect ratio and long lenses,

with the handheld style recalling the imagery of more savage suburban movies like Snowtown”. “It wouldn’t surprise me if this were at the top of lists of Australian Christmas movies. It’s undoubtedly one of
the best Christmas films to emerge – from anywhere – in recent years,” Mattes said. Christmess is screening in selected cinemas in Australia and New Zealand.
‘Shire’ set to join Midsumma Pride March Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au STAFF, councillors and community members of Mornington Peninsula Shire will be “proudly marching” in next February’s Midsumma Pride March in along Fitzroy Street, St Kilda. This prediction is contained in a shire news release that states “Mornington Peninsula Shire” will march alongside “the Frankston Mornington Peninsula LGBTIQA+ Collaborative” and invites “all local LGBTIQA+ community members and allies to march with us on the day”. As part of its ongoing support for LGBTIQA+ community members the shire is offering free tickets and bus transport to the march. Tina McGuffie, the shire’s senior advisor media communications and advocacy, told The News that saying the shire would be marching was “an example of metonymy, in which a single word is used as shorthand for a broader concept”. “I can confirm that it is shire staff members, councillors and community members who will be marching,” she said. “I can also confirm that the ‘Shire’ will be marching with determination, using a regular measured tread, as per the dictionary definition.” The unattributed 4 December Let’s march loud and proud at Midsumma this February news release goes on to state: “Each year, the Midsumma Pride March sees lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, queer, questioning, asexual, agender, aromantic + (LGBTIQA+) community members and allies … celebrate solidarity in sexuality, sex and gender diversity. “Over 45,000 people line the streets and balconies along the march route to show their support. “People of all ages are welcome. Children and young people aged 17 and under will need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.”
Stepping out: Crs Despi O’Connor and Sarah Race joined members of the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula LGBTIQA+ Collaborative at a previous Pride march. Picture: Supplied
The mayor Cr Simon Brooks, in inviting registrations for free tickets to the march, said: “As an organisation, we are proud of our commitment to stand with our LGBTIQA+ residents, community friends, family, allies and colleagues (‘Dialogue’ terminated over flag, The News 28/11/23).” Cr Antonella Celi, who heads the shire’s health and wellbeing committee: “Last year was the first time the Shire marched in Midsumma Pride March. Our continued involvement celebrates our LGBTIQA+ community.” The news release said the march was “an opportunity for shire and Frankston City staff, councillors, service providers and local community members to come together to celebrate, embrace and stand with our LGBTIQA+ community from the peninsula and Frankston”. Continued involvement in the Midsumma Pride March stemmed from the shire’s Wellbeing Plan 2021-2025. This plan outlines our commitment to engage with our LGBTIQA+ community and deliver programs to support them(details:
Summer u n e M l i a t k c o C New
mornpen.vic.gov.au/councilplan). The news release said the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula LGBTQIA+ Collaborative - “co-convened by the shire and Frankston City Council” - brought together service providers, community members and allies from across Frankston and peninsula “with the aim of strengthening connections and enhancing the health and wellbeing of LGBTIQA+ communities”. The Sunday 4 February Midsumma Pride March will start at 11am at the corner of Fitzroy Street and Lakeside Drive, St Kilda, and after following Fitzroy Street will end at Catani Gardens for celebrations and entertainment, including DJs and live performances. To register for free ticket to march, go to the shire's Eventbrite page: mornpen.vic.gov.au/midsumma2024 Registrations close on 1 February 2024. Details of free return bus transport from the peninsula are also on the Eventbrite page.
‘Permanent’ flag IT seems that Mornington Peninsula Shire Council intends to permanently fly the “Intersex Progress Pride Flag” outside its offices. The latest version of the flag, officially recognised as the Intersex-Inclusive Progress Pride flag, was unveiled at the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, US, in June. The unveiling during LGBTQ+ Pride Month was said to demonstrate “the evolution of inclusivity in the design of Pride flags”. In its quarterly glossy publication Peninsula Wide, the shire says it believes “it is vital we overtly show our support for LGBTIQA+ community members”. Under the heading Respecting diversity, the shire states: “Our Community Vision makes it clear that respect for diversity and inclusiveness are central to who we are. There is no place for hatred, demonisation or exclusion on the peninsula. “The wellbeing of our community is paramount, and this includes those who identify as LGBTIQA+.” The explanation in Peninsula Wide follows the shire and former mayor Cr Steve Holland not responding to questions from The News about the flag (‘Dialogue’ terminated over flag, The News 28/11/23). Unanswered questions remain about who decided that the flag be flown, were councillors told and could other groups ask for their flags to be flown. In its own publication the shire states: “At each of our shire offices, we proudly fly the Intersex Progress Pride Flag alongside the Australian national flag, Victorian state flag, Aboriginal flag, Torres Strait Islander flag, and the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council flag. That will continue.” Keith Platt

Program designed to give students skills to succeed A VOLUNTEER tutoring program led by retired teachers and other professionals is aiming to give young people from primary school through to university the confidence and skills to achieve educational success and fulfil their dreams. The program is the brainchild of retired Mornington education professional Dr Mark Belkin, who recognised that many students were struggling with the curriculum or the requirements of study and needed a hand up. Belkin is spearheading a one-on-one tutoring program and knowledge network for local school students, utilising the network of retired teachers, academics, professionals, field experts and others on the Mornington Peninsula who can pass on their knowledge to mentor and tutor young people. Belkin is looking at collaborating with Dromana Lions Club which has set up a similar trial program for primary schools targeted at grades 4-6. Mornington MP Chris Crewther has contacted 18 schools in his electorate about Belkin’s proposed program, which he aims to start from first term next year. While there tutors for students from primary
to secondary who will focus on primary levels, from expanding vocabulary and reading capacity, to writing and other literary skills, Belkin is particularly interested in helping VCE students or those who have finished VCE this year and are hoping to start university next year. “In particular I have an academic writing method which will ensure that the student is capable of writing exams and assignments at the highest standard and achieve the best marks,” he said. Belkin says he found that university students have similar issues of appearing too smart “but embarrassed not to know”. “The consequences of this at uni especially are compromised learning, and persistence of student problems,” he said. “Kids need to know how to work independently, study techniques and academic writing.” Crewther said the program was now reaching out to retirees or people who might be able to offer time in 2024. Anyone interested in assisting or participating can email Crewther at Chris.Crewther@parliament.vic.gov.au or call 5975 4799, or tutor Mark Belkin at mark.belkin04@iinet.net.au
Upgrades for road ‘black spots’ ROADS around Rye and Tootgarook are about to get a safety upgrade as part of a program to target dangerous intersections. Seven intersections will be upgraded with compact roundabouts, speed cushions or raised intersections, courtesy of the federal government’s Black Spot program. Black Spot projects target road locations where crashes are occurring or are at risk of occurring. The intersections to receive compact roundabouts are Field Street and Shirlow Avenue, Hygeia Street and Bimble Street, Ozone Street
and Bimble Street and Government Road and Waratah Street. Speed cushions will be installed at Field and Marshall streets and Alma and Plain streets and a raised intersection at Darvall and Alma streets. Speed limits will be reduced from the default 50kph to 40kph, and 20kph in the Napier Street Plaza area. There will be a community information session where residents can meet traffic and transport officials at Rye Community House, on Thursday 14 December from 3-7pm.

Project looks at improving end-of-life care Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au A 12-month project on the Mornington Peninsula to improve end of life care in residential aged care centres could set a new standard for the treatment of people with life-limiting illnesses. The government financed Community Palliative Care in Aged Care Project is being administered by Peninsula Home Hospice in Mornington. The not-for-profit organisation provides specialist palliative care to people in their home, whether that be residential aged care or the family home. Its team of medical and support professionals focuses on optimising quality of life for people diagnosed with a palliative illness. The project follows on from the Royal Commission into Aged Care, which made 11 palliative care and endof-life recommendations. The recommendations included that palliative and end-of-life care should be considered a core business for aged care providers and that pain must be minimised, dignity maintained, and residents’ wishes respected. Their families should be also supported and informed. Peninsula Home Hospice CEO Janet Phillips said aged care centres were often a person’s final place of residence before they died, and that the model being trialled aimed to ensure high quality end-of-life care was provided. “The Royal Commission into Aged Care heard cases where care provided to people in their last weeks and days of life was severely lacking and fell

well short of community expectations,” she said. “In response to these findings, we are very excited to commence this pilot project that will increase palliative care support for residents in three aged care facilities across our catchment - from Portsea to Mordialloc Creek - with the new model using palliative care needs rounds where the
staff at the aged care facility will discuss any residents that need specialist palliative care with Peninsula Home Hospice’s aged care team. The team consisted of medical palliative care consultant Dr Lizzy Gascoigne, specialist palliative care nurse Tania Bhasin and counsellor case worker, Daniel Shaw. “Peninsula Home Hospice is
strongly advocating for increased government funding so this support can continue and expand when the project ends in 12 months’ time,” Phillips said. The team at Peninsula Home Hospice was working with aged care providers and staff to reduce patient presentations to emergency departments, under a “stop and watch”
system where all staff were involved in monitoring changes to a resident’s condition. Such close observation often involved tracking of chronic disease and effective and constant communication between care givers. “This system encourages better communication between all staff who deal with a patient, empowering staff and putting the residents’ needs first,” Phillips said. “What we know is that if we can manage pain and illness well, and keep people in their comfortable, familiar surroundings, they do better, they are happier, and they have a better end-of-life experience.” The hospice was started almost 40 years ago by volunteers who wanted to ensure those wanting to stay in their own home as they faced a life limiting illness were able to do so. Since then, PHH has evolved into an accredited specialist community palliative care service that receives state government money and additional fundraising and philanthropic grants. In 1998, PHH won a Department of Human Services tender to provide a comprehensive palliative care program delivered by a team of professional workers and volunteers – a model that is still in use. PHH services are available free to those who need palliative care on the peninsula, in the City of Frankston and part of the City of Kingston.

NINETY five-year-old Hans Brunner of Frankston is renowned as a yodeller with a golden voice. On Remembrance day (11 November) he attended a reunion of the Keith Turnbull Research Institute at Northway Downs Estate, Moorooduc where he showed his yodelling skills to the more than 40 people who attended. It was the first time in 37 years that Brunner had caught up with former colleagues. Brunner worked with dingoes at the research institute in Frankston North (now part of the AgriBio Centre at La Trobe University, Bundoora) which enabled him to provide evidence and help exonerate Lindy Chamberlain who was charged with the murder of her baby at Uluru years earlier. He is also the subject of a portrait by artist Lulu Clifton-Evans, of Frankston South, which appeared in The Age and resulted in people finding him and the invitation to the research institute reunion. After many years, Brunner also rejoined friends at the Melbourne Swiss Club on Saturday 2 December where he is an honorary member. Manuela Erb, honorary consul of Switzerland in Melbourne, said it had been a joy to catch up with Brunner. “Hans Brunner, the man with the golden voice, is a respected and loved member in the Melbourne Swiss community,” she said. “Nothing quite captures our hearts as when Hans breaks out in song and yodels, often quite unexpectedly. “Memories of the homeland instantly fill our minds and there is not another sound in the room as we

are all instantly transported back to Switzerland.” Erb said the portrait also led people to find out about his achievements in the Lindy Chamberlain case. “Many of us have only recently learnt about the achievements of Hans in his professional life through the painting. “We are so proud of him and wish him only the best in the years to come.”

Students answer zoo’s call for help STUDENTS at Our Lady of Fatima School, Rosebud have collected 75 unwanted mobile phones and iPads for recycling. The Melbourne Zoo program called They're Calling You uses money raised from the recycling to pay for a mobile vet service to help wild gorillas whose habitat is under threat from mining for the mineral colton. The mining exposes the gorillas to human diseases, while the phone donations will help vets monitor the gorillas, provide vaccinations and medical care for them, and care for injured individuals.

Police escort Santa to carols ONLOOKERS were delighted when Santa visited the Mount Martha Christmas Carol Concert and arrived with his own police escort. Members of the Mornington Peninsula Ladies Welsh Choir provided plenty of musical Christmas cheer and fellowship, and after recently returning from a tour of Wales and England said they were pleased to be at a local carols concert. Choir member Trudi Mackenzie said it was “wonderful to return to the
Mornington Peninsula and support the Community Bank, which makes grants and offers sponsorships to so many local groups all year around”. But, even with the police in attendance, children stole the show. Mount Martha mother Gwen Gothard said Christmas was a “great time for kids and what better way to start than with a visit from Santa”. Acting Police Sergeant Matthew Young said police were always pleased to support the local com-
munity and couldn’t resist Santa’s invitation. Mount Martha Community Bank raises hundreds of thousands of dollars each year for local causes and as manager Stacey Wakeman of Bendigo Bank remarked, “nothing is better than getting out into the community and supporting groups that do so much hard work”. The bank has recently opened its Mount Martha Stronger Community Grants Program.

and Dunns roads roundabout was always blocked. “I’m sure residents would not be happy, either”. The mayor Cr Simon Brooks said parking officers patrolled school zones to keep children safe and ensure nearby residents were not impacted by drivers doing the wrong thing. “Patrols are often carried out in response to complaints we’ve received,” he said. “Our parking officers have only patrolled Osborne Primary once during term four, on 13 October. There were 19 drivers fined for offences such as parking in a No Stopping area, parking across a driveway and double parking,” he said. “As far as I’m aware, no council anywhere gives notice of when parking inspectors are going to be active. We expect motorists to obey the road rules at all times, not just when they think an inspector will be there. “There is no need for council to advocate for more parking at the school as there is a substantial amount of legal parking available along Craigie and Dunns roads. We ask parents to consider parking here and walking the short distance to the school. This would make the situation safer for all involved.” Liz Bell

CALLS for more parking spaces for parents of children at Osborne Primary School in Mount Martha have been rejected, with Mornington Peninsula Shire Council calling for parents to “obey the rules”. A recent concentration by council parking officers around the school has parents seeing red, after 19 were fined in one day for illegal parking and other traffic violations. Connor Foster said it was “unfair” of the council to target parents, with some drivers fined more than once, at around $219 a fine. “Our main interest is the safety of our children,” he said. Foster says there needs to be more drop off and pick up car parks in Dunns Road, with the shortage causing parents to queue to be able to safely drop their children at school. He said drivers were being fined as they waited in line for a drop-off spot to become available. “But while you are waiting to move into a parking space, and sometimes it is literally just seconds, the parking inspector drives past and snaps you. It is causing enormous stress for parents.” Foster said the lack of drop-and-go parking spaces also meant the Craigie

Medals and certificates for lifesavers GUNNAMATTA and Sorrento surf lifesaving clubs have been presented with Rescue medals by Surf Life Saving Australia for their members’ efforts in rescuing a father and his son. Everyday Lifesaver certificates were awarded to Liam Kiernan and David Lawson for their actions at the same incident, Gunnamatta club president David Stogdale said. The drama that the lifesavers were recognised for unfolded in the early evening after patrols had ended at Gunnamatta on Friday 6 January. The father went into the water after seeing his sons, two brothers, aged 16 and 20, get into difficulties. However,
he too soon got into trouble and had to be helped ashore with his younger son by lifesavers. No trace of the 20-year-old could be found that evening and a full air and sea search ended the following day (“Search scaled back for man missing at Gunnamatta, The News 10/1/23). “The Rescue medal was issued to both clubs for their combined efforts of the 14 members involved in the rescue where one person was lost to the sea, but two were rescued from the Gunnamatta ocean beach rip in fading light,” Stogdale said. “Of particular note was the care provided by club members to members of
the effected family who were in deep emotional distress. “The awarding of the Rescue medal and Everyday Lifesaver certificates was worthy recognition for the efforts of all involved in the incident.” Stogdale said the 6 January incident was a “tragic reminder to swim between the flags at all times”. Lifesavers rescued six people at Gunnamatta on the previous Friday (30 December). Gunnamatta SLSC volunteers patrol each weekend from mid-November until mid-April.

Safety message for playground users PARENTS have been warned to be alert after thumb tacks were found scattered around two children’s playgrounds in Somerville. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council is urging anyone who discovers vandalism of any sort to contact it after the thumb tacks, or drawing pins, were found at the playground Pembroke Drive, Somerville on Sunday 3 December. The council’s rapid response team went to the playground on Monday to clean up any remaining thumb tacks. Posts on social media reports also show a similar thing happened at Clairmont Close Reserve at around the same time, with thumb tacks left on equipment and playground furniture. A parent whose child was taken to the park by grandparents and found the tacks in “multiple spots” around the playground said it was “not acceptable” and wanted to warn other parents. “It’s going to end up where we have security cameras just to make sure our kids are safe,” she posted. Others described it as a disgusting act by a “sick individual”. Another parent who found tacks at Pembroke Drive playground said they had been spread all

Goodwill visit POLICE from the Hastings police station last week embarked on a visit to French Island as part of “community engagement”. The police who made the trip across Western Port chatted with local volunteers, Zoo’s Victoria staff working at the island’s koala reserve and staff from Forest Fire Management Victoria conducting early season fire risk assessments. Police saw the visit as an opportunity to build relationships and promote a collaborative approach towards enhancing community safety on the Island.

The Guide TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK
FRIDAY
LAST NIGHT IN SOHO
SEVEN, 10.45pm
FRIDAY
This bombastic thriller from cult director Edgar Wright is a psychological trip laced with horror that’s unlike anything he’s done before. A comingof-age tale, crime mystery and period drama all in one, it’s a bold creation that begins with young and naive Eloise (Thomasin McKenzie) arriving in London. After moving to a spooky old house, her first snooze in her creepy room sees her transported to the ’60s – Eloise has somehow time travelled into the life of glamorous nightclub singer and dancer Sandy (Anya Taylor-Joy, pictured). You could call it a rather beautiful nightmare.
GARDENING AUSTRALIA
ABC TV, 7.30pm
THURSDAY
THE DOLL FACTORY
SBS, 9.30pm
Based on Elizabeth Macneal’s violent Victorian London-era thriller, this six-part series is a potent adaptation. Featuring Derry Girls’ Saoirse-Monica Jackson (pictured), it’s a female-led tale exploring desire and the world of art, with a spot of taxidermy and obsession adding to the intensity. In the penultimate double episode, Iris and Louis (George Webster, pictured) grow closer.
The crew puts the finishing touches on its 34th season with a Christmas-themed episode filled with festive ideas and stories to make you smile. It’s nature’s bounty that remains the greatest gift of all for host Costa Georgiadis and his enthusiastic presenters, though gift ideas and jolly educational segments are abundant. What would Costa give for Christmas? Besides his sunny and spirited demeanour, garden beds are it. Tammy Huynh creates living wreaths using beautiful plants and Clarence Slockee (pictured) unearths the facts about the vibrant Christmas beetle. Clarence Slockee in Gardening Australia

As the world’s kids giddily gear up for Santa’s arrival and wolf down on sweet treats from advent calenders every day, what about the animals, some might ask? Well, in this warm and cosy Christmas special straight from London Zoo, all creatures great and small bear witness to some wonderfully festive shenanigans as the merry staff get ready for one of the zoo’s busiest times of year. Follow the keepers as they busy themselves transforming the grounds into a magical winter wonderland.

Peta Murphy: fondly remembered … as an exceptional role model I am writing to express our sincere condolences concerning the tragic passing of Dunkley MP Peta Murphy. She was much loved and deeply admired by all the members of The Southern Women’s Action Network (SWAN). Peta was a woman of great integrity, strong convictions, kindness and compassion. Like so many others who met her, we truly appreciated Peta’s warm and engaging personality, her willingness to listen and delightful sense of humour. Most especially we admired her determination to advocate for justice, particularly in support of those who were marginalised. Peta’s unfailing determination to achieve the enshrinement of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice in the Constitution will long be remembered. Earlier this year, Peta honoured us by accepting our invitation to launch our book, When Women Meet, that records the 26 year history of our volunteer led, community organisation. In her address she spoke passionately about the important role that women play in community development and social change. Not only that. Within a month, Peta took our book to Canberra and spoke in parliament about the powerful and important contribution that women, such as the members of SWAN, make towards building a more just and equitable society. We could not have imagined a more fitting and moving tribute to recognise the collective social justice efforts made by women in this southern metropolitan region over the past three decades. Peta Murphy will be fondly remembered by all our members as an exceptional role model, not only for those who knew her, but for future generations of women who seek empowerment, truth and justice. Like her own role model, Louisa Dunkley, she will continue to stand tall in this country’s historical record. Diane McDonald, facilitator Southern Women’s Action Network
Lack of support I notice there was no balance in response of the half page article on federal cuts to programs affecting the peninsula (‘Blatant disregard’ for peninsula, The News 28/11/23). Zoe McKenzie wrote “These cuts demonstrate a complete lack of understanding of local community needs and a disgusting disrespect for the peninsula”, which is hypocrisy in the extreme, coming from our Flinders federal representative who, since taking office, has voted against: Capping gas prices; encouraging Australian based industry; federal action on public housing; increasing transparency of big business by making information public; letting all MPs or senators speak in parliament (procedural); net zero emissions by 2035; net zero emissions by 2050; the Paris climate agreement; and legislation to make wage theft a criminal offence, all of which are of benefit to people in the Flinders electorate. If Zoe McKenzie, who holds this seat with a margin of only 5.6 per cent, down from 6.7 per cent, thinks it’s OK to go along 100 per cent with the federal Opposition no-hopers at the cost of programs of benefit to us, is not a disgusting disrespect for the peninsula and a complete lack of understanding of local community needs, I can promise she will be reminded at the next federal election. Danny McCaffrey, Mornington
costs businesses up to $200,000 each. Our rates money? This is all instigated by our friendly global unelected leaders at the World Economic Forum, UN, WHO and their puppet masters. This is global and people need to wake up asap. When I write to councillors about this issue, the response is always the same – we are being “inclusive”. In Black’s Law Dictionary, in legal terms, that actually means “to the exclusion of all others”. Take that in and have a serious think of who council works for, our community or lobby groups? Judy O’Donnell, Mount Martha
Transparency lacking I, and many others have written to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council CEO, the mayor and councillors asking when the Pride flag will be taken down. My question was not answered but I received the standard reply: “Council does not intend to provide you with further correspondence about this matter”. This is contrary to the councillor code of conduct where it stipulates their commitment to engagement and transparency. I was also told to refer my question to the Ombudsman, who I believe has more important issues than sorting out than council misbehaviour. No-one in this council was prepared to explain why this flag is still flying and when it will be taken down. In fact, Cr Susan Bissinger was gagged and forced to be re-educated for her support of ratepayers asking this question. Imagine my surprise when I read in the council newsletter Peninsula Wide (page 5) that they will continue to fly this Pride flag. That means while we, the ratepayers, asking this question were being ignored and told to refer to the Ombudsman, the council had already made the decision to continue to fly this Pride flag. That’s not transparency and, in my opinion, is basically dishonest. Their obvious disrespect and arrogance towards the ratepaying community is out of control. If this council can be deceptive on such a simple issue, it makes me wonder about its honesty in other areas of ratepayer importance, such as transparency in financial management. I suggest we replace the Pride flag with the Veterans flag, a neglected group who proudly served this country. Ellen Bigelow, Blairgowrie
Debating ‘art’ The new sculpture on Peninsula Link, to me, resembles an engineering drawing of oil-drum brackets for handling heavy drums (Compass points the way, The News, 5/12/23). No matter which way you look at it or from what perspective, it is not art. Bring back the grumpy stainless steel giant gnome, which at least was interesting and became somewhat famous. The Chardonnay-sipping society set, devoid of taste or culture and appraising art only by money, will no doubt approve this chunk of metal because of its $300,000 price, and call me a philistine. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Not so silent I was amused by a letter from a regular contributor about Mornington Peninsula Shire Council flying the gay pride flag (Flag needs answers, Letters 5/12/23). For someone who claims to be “one of the silent vast majority” he has a lot to say. Ian Dale, Rosebud
Contradictory terms I just found out that some of our Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors, plus environment, social issue, religious groups and some schools signed a Rainbow Pledge in 2020, which has been created by LGBTQ+ activists, the Pride lobby and pushed by the Greens with the threat of shaming and naming those who don’t sign (Flag needs answers, Letters 5/12/23). Now every decision goes through that lens, which includes flying the rainbow flag on council buildings, participating in pride events, setting up an LGBTQ+ advisory committee, developing and implementing an LGBTQ+ action plan and achieving Rainbow Tick accreditation for its services. Sixty-six of Victoria’s 79 councils now fly the flags. Port Phillip council voted down the proposal for “Rainbow tick accreditation” which

And how our councillors brag about what they’ve achieved. I’d just like to see even footpaths. As I’m in my 80s, I have to watch every step I take, and to manoeuvre the paths around here you have to be so careful. Main Street and surrounding streets have uneven footpaths, great yellow “trippables”, and numerous dogs on long leads. It’s not like Civic Reserve. We have to drive there to walk on smooth pebblecrete paths, kilometres of walks to Craigie Road and beyond, but it’s safe. Please, can we do something to bring back our parrots and wrens, and please could we have safe walking right here in Mornington? Wendy Doyle, Mornington
Women’s sport
Bragging, but no birds I received the [Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s] glossy Peninsula Wide in the post this week. Where are the parrots pictured on the front? I live by Memorial Park, Mornington, and the only birds I see are pigeons, mynas, and ravens, which scare every other bird away.
I would like to see The News give coverage of women’s sport on a weekly basis as is done for some local men’s sports. If there is agreement, I would ask all readers involved in women’s sport to consider offering their assistance. This initiative may only be possible if clubs provide results and editorial information including highlights and perhaps arrange photos. David Gill, Red Hill Ward councillor Mornington Peninsula Shire
‘Guarded optimism’ I attended what, I guess, was the inaugural meeting of Mornington Peninsula Council Watch. I have to admit that I almost did not go as I have seen these organisations come and go, but with a
great deal of skepticism I attended. Have to admit that I left with a guarded sense of optimism. I invited councillors to attend to listen, and “keep their yaps shut”, to hear what their electors had to say and then “After biting your tongue if you can still speak after the meeting you can stick around and blow some smoke up some individuals”. I was challenged on this last statement and responded that if I said where to blow the smoke my email would have been rejected by the Mornington Peninsula Shire. Just a bit of fun. Two showed up, the mayor Cr Simon Brooks, and Cr Susan Bissinger. Cr Sarah Race apologised for having family commitments but thanked me for the information. Two councillors, whose names cannot be mentioned, abused me for inviting them and the other six, apparently, couldn’t give a flying flamingo. The deputy mayor did not acknowledge the invite. The abusers and the flying flamingos could not have made it any clearer about their disdain for electors’ views, which brings us to a systemic issue of just who they represent? The abusers and flying flamingos just don’t get it: we are in this together and the electors, no matter how outspoken or critical, are not the enemy. Their absence will be noted at the next council election, just like how they voted on the “open briefings to the public’’ issue (Transparency backed, but ‘secret’ talks stay, The News 28/11/23).

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Health of Frankston – “Fecto” Disinfector to be Installed Compiled by Cameron McCullough AT Friday’s Council meeting the Health Committee reported that after full investigation it recommended that the “Fecto” system of sanitation be adopted, together with the Carrum bylaw relating to same. Cr. Mason said the Council intended doing all possible to safeguard the health of the people. It was proposed that an order be given for 700 “Fecto” appliances. The total number of premises to be served would be about 800. Some owners already had various systems installed. These would not be interfered with, provided they were satisfactory. Cr. McCulloch objected to the Council being tied down to one system. Cr. McLean: If we don’t decide on one particular system we will get boxed up. As a Council we should recommend one system. Cr. Armstrong agreed with Cr. McLean. The merits of “Fecto” had been abundantly proved. Cr. Oates supported Cr. McCulloch. “Fecto” was a fluid, and he considered that provision should be made for the powder system, which was much cheaper. Cr, Mason moved, and Cr, Gray seconded, that the report of the committee be adopted. An amendment by Crs. McCulloch and Oates was to the effect that the report be referred back to the committee. Cr. Gray. We have heard all about the other machine, and I will stand or fall by my convictions. Crs. McCulloch and Oates put up a strenuous fight in favour of the amendment, which was lost. Cr. Oates called for a division,
which resulted as follows: For the Amendment: Crs. Oates, McCulloch, Longmuir, and Hutchinson. Against the Amendment the President and Crs. Alden, Mason, Gray, May, Bradbury, Wells, McLean and Armstrong. The motion was then put and carried. Authority was given the “Fecto” Manufacturing Company to proceed with the installation at once, so as to have the system in working order before Christmas. *** MRS. R. Morgan announces through our advertising columns that in her beautifully cool tea rooms, in Young Street (opposite Station), she is catering for the summer trade, with all kinds of high class confectionery, ice cream, (special flavour), and a large assortment of soothing soft drinks, right off the ice. *** YESTERDAY the work of installing the electric light at Frankston Railway Station, subway, and approaches was commenced. It is anticipated that the installation will be completed well before the Christmas holidays. This will prove a boon not only to residents, but to the many visitors who in the past have found it rather difficult to negotiate the ill-lighted ramp and subway. *** MR. W. Macafee, the well known Wells Street tailor, has opened a gents Mercery Department, and is specialising in shirts, hats, socks, blazers, tennis and cricketing trousers, in fact anything pertaining to the wants of the up-to-date summer man. Mr. Macafee, draws special attention
to his large and varied stock of readyfor-service lounge and sports suits, which he is offering at prices which absolutely defy comparison. *** MR. H. Stell, of the Peninsula Motor Garage, was fortunate in securing the local agency for the up-to-date “Overland”. This car is the very latest word in motor car manufacture, a special feature being its Treplex springs, which, to use the words of the maker, “unslant the hills and level the road.” No longer need the prospective purchaser of a car experience the disadvantage of any limitations to his satisfaction. The New Overland embodies the finest achievement in design and construction, including electric lighting and starting systems, and the complete equipment of all the latest style of accessories. The Overland Service is at the disposal of every Overland purchaser, ready to advise you upon any question of the cars and operation of your car, and ensure its being available for service all the time. The price is £295, marvellously low for such a sterling car. *** MR. J. Nott Marsh is spending a holiday at Kongwak, at his son’s residence. *** MR. Les. Ward, of the Frankskton Railway Staff, has returned from his holiday, which, he informs us, was thoroughly enjoyed. *** MR. and Mrs. P. S. McGovern and Mrs. Jacobs returned from a most enjoyable motor trip through Gippsland.

*** MR. W. E. Watktins has recovered from his recent severe attack of influenza, and is about again. Cricketers as well as his other numerous friends will be pleased to note this. *** MR. W. H. Pike, a patient in Caulfield Military Hospital, for the past 12 months, the result of war injuries, has been allowed by his doctor a six weeks’ spell at Frankston. His many friends join with us in wishing that the change will be of the greatest benefit. *** IN the Prize List of the Geelong Grammar School, published in yesterday’s “Argus”, appears the name of Murray Maxwell, son of Dr. C. and Mrs. Maxwell, of Frankston. He obtained first prize in his Form (Lower IV) as the result of his first year’s work at the school. *** MR. Casey, of the Pier Hotel, who had recently recovered from a severe illness, has, owing to the strain, been compelled to relinquish business. Accompanied by Mrs. and Miss Casey, he left Frankston yesterday, and after a few weeks’ rest will probably retire into private life. *** MRS. Harry Golds is progressing favourably after her recent severe illness. Her many friends will be pleased to learn this. *** AT Friday’s Council meeting, Cr. McCulloch inquired who gave authority for cutting ti-tree on Main Road, Seaford? Cr. Armstrong: I did.
Cr. McCulloch said he would move that whoever gave authority be asked to pay for the work. It seemed to him that the business people of Seaford cut the scrub for their own benefit, and the general public were beginning to kick. He was opposed to every “Dick, Tom, and Harry” being allowed to cut the ti-tree. Cr. May objected to the expression. He thought Cr: McCulloch should withdraw. Cr. Armstrong explained that the electric light committee had recommended the cutting of the ti-tree referred to, as it obscured the electric light. Seaford seemed to have one Councillor who was holding the place back. The people do not want the ti-tree in the main street. The President: Quite enough ti-tree has been cut for the present. Cr. Longmuir said the recommendation of the Electric Light Committee should have been confirmed by the Council before action was taken. Cr. McCulloch: If this sort of thing is allowed Cr. Mason or other Frankston Councillors may order the removal of the pine trees in Bay Street. Cr. Gray: Once down, they cannot be put up again. Cr. Armstrong said that Mr. Quartermain, the electric light manager, had agreed with the committee that the scrub should be removed from the electric light pole. It was agreed that committee recommendations should come before the Council for confirmation. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 12 & 14 Dec 1923

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
A Tale of a Very Happy Unbirthday By Stuart McCullough I WAS never any good at it. This is despite the fact that I had no shortage of practice. It comes up every year without fail, and yet the very thought of it makes me squirm. Some may relish the chance to be the centre of attention and bask in glow of adulation (or, if adulation isn’t readily available, then candles), but it’s never been for me. I speak, of course, of my birthday. The whole idea of a birthday party always made me feel uncomfortable. It started with having to choose a certain number of friends to invite. This was challenging because I knew at an early age that the number in question was entirely random and that I would need to make brutal decisions as to who (and, more to the point, who not) to invite. In a small town like Tyabb, snubbing someone could lead to a conflict that lasts a generation or more. The second great anxiety was whether those that were invited would, in fact, show up. Granted, a bag of mixed lollies and skin-full of soft drink is a pretty powerful motivator, but there’s nothing like an invitation to socialise out of school hours to find out exactly where you stand in the pecking order. Which led me to my next problem – did I actually have enough friends to fill the arbitrarily determined quota given to me by my parents? I had my doubts. Then there were the gifts. I remember one birthday in primary school where I was given a model aeroplane. That required assembly. I’m sure I
said something along the lines of ‘thank you’. I’m also sure I wore an expression that suggested she had made a grave misjudgement. As a rule, you should never give anything that requires assembly to a kid who routinely manages to super-glue himself to furniture during art class.
To this day, my hand is still attached to a tiny, primary school-size chair. I guess I could have it surgically removed, but I’m (ahem) attached to it. My last major birthday party I had was when I turned twelve. I was allowed to have six friends and, struggling for numbers, I may have invited
the postman. Dave was deeply appreciative. On that birthday, we saw a movie I’d never heard of entitled, ‘E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial’. I had no idea what a ‘terrestrial’ was and couldn’t conceive of a world where someone would want one, much less an extra. But the two hours that followed convinced me otherwise. As birthday parties go, there’s no way to top ‘E.T.’. I decided to retire. Liam turned ten in March. He feels very differently about birthday parties. For the last nine months, he has taken every opportunity to lobby, campaign and otherwise cajole in the hope of having a birthday party. At the time he turned ten, we were managing other major events and we decided to defer. Until November, as it turns out. It was on. Even though Liam was closer to being eleven than he was to ten, we sent out invites for people to come rock climbing with us. He was extremely excited. Indeed, he was so profoundly eager that I also began to look forward to it. His enthusiasm was infectious. And although this may be because he washes his hands too infrequently, I couldn’t wait. To see someone so committed to a birthday was inspiring. There would be games, sing songs and craft activities. It would be awesome. It’s been a long time since I’ve spent the afternoon with a room full of ten-year-old boys. I was in for a surprise. We arrived at the venue to find a function room waiting for us. There was even a special sign that read, ‘Happy birthday, Liam!’ on the
trestle table. The kids were rounded up and given a safety briefing before being set loose in the rock-climbing pen. It was as if someone had unleashed the devil and left the gates of hell wide open. Mayhem ensued. There was shouting, there was screaming and there were limbs flying everywhere. It was like a tornado of small people. Things only went down hill from there. By the time I had returned to the comparative safety of the function room, the sing that read, ‘Happy birthday, Liam!’ had been completely violated and now said, ‘Yer Phat Liam’. I’m not even sure what that means. But I’m sure it’s not good. Liam’s older brother, Ryan, had been volunteering at his school, so knew most of kids by sight but not by name. So we decided that instead of learning their names, we would simply assign them any name we liked. One kid we christened ‘Marmaduke’, another we called ‘Chauncey’. We even had the kids volunteering to be ‘Dennis’ for the day. At the end of the mayhem, Liam said it was the best birthday party he’d ever had. I’ll bet he can’t wait to turn eleven. Lucky for him, it won’t be that long. I learned a few things that day. Firstly, that ten year old boys, in pack form, are complete animals. The other is that it’s okay to be the centre of attention sometimes. Especially on your birthday. Or even nine months after your birthday as it turn out. It’s a lesson that I’m sure to take to heart. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Hall new Mount Martha boss SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie ANDREW Hall will be in charge of Mount Martha’s senior side next season. The local State 5 South club announced Hall’s appointment last week just before pre-season training started at the club’s Civic Reserve headquarters. Hall, 53, replaced Mark Larner who resigned in October and was appointed senior coach of Somerville Eagles shortly after. Born in Falkirk Hall was brought up in Yorkshire and arrived in Melbourne with his wife and two children in 2009. “As a kid (in England) I played for Barnsley schools which is like the equivalent of county sides through to 15 then I started playing as an adult,” Hall said. His two senior clubs were Hood Green FC in Sheffield and Cumberworth FC in Huddersfield. “Cumberworth played in the county league at the time which would have been the equivalent of our State 1 or State 2 standard. “I played seniors football on Saturday as a centre back and played for fun on Sunday as a centre forward. “I started coaching at junior level when my son started playing in the UK for about three years. “We came here for work reasons and moving to a new country with a young family I concentrated on my job although I kept watching football from all over the world even to the point of getting up through the night to watch Glasgow Rangers every week. “When my son started playing for Mount Eliza I had the opportunity to coach their reserves for a season and when he switched to Mount Martha I came across with him.” That was two seasons ago and Hall has moved from assisting with the reserves to senior assistant last season and now the reins are firmly in his grasp. When Larner left the Mariners the club advertised the position and a number of candidates applied. So why was Hall one of them given the workload associated with the role? “My wife asked the same question,” he quipped. “The club spoke to me about building on the great work of Chris Sanderson in setting up the senior squad over a number of years and

continuing the work Mark did last season. “They are a fantastic bunch of lads at Mount Martha and the club has a fantastic culture as well. “I think they are an exceptional junior club and I think they have made really big strides in the seniors so it was just too hard to step away from that and not try to add to the progress. “I want us to be a club that has as much success with its senior men and women as it does with its juniors and I think we can do that mainly because we have a really good base of players who have been with us for a few years. “We’ve started pre-season and we’ve already got a group of new players down.” There’s talk that the departures of Larner and senior mainstay Sanderson has pulled the rug from beneath the senior group and that Hall could find it hard to retain players but he’s

confident about the future. “I’ve been in football long enough to know that it’s an interesting time of year when everyone seems to be looking around. “I think come January you start to see what your squad is looking like and where you are from a positional point of view and an experience point of view. “We’ve managed to do a couple of things that’s going to assist us to attract players if we need players. “We’ve brought in Charlie Platt as assistant senior coach and I’m delighted that he’s joined us. “Charlie is a legend at Mornington and brings a wealth of knowledge to Mount Martha that helps me and helps the senior squad to see the quality of the individuals we are bringing in. “The club will also bring in a technical director as well so they really are providing the squad with reasons
to stay at Mount Martha.” Hall hopes a winning start to next season will set the tone for what lies ahead and will see the Mariners viewed as an ambitious and progressive club. “The framework we are trying to put around the senior program is as good as any other club down here on the peninsula. “Every conversation I’ve had with the president and the new technical director has been to ensure that we are taken seriously as a senior club and having been here for the last two years I’m confident we can move that forward next season. “I’ve never gone into any season playing or coaching without believing that we will finish in the top half of the league and that’s absolutely what we’ll be aiming to do and be very competitive against everyone that we play.” In NPL2 news Langwarrin’s seniors and under-23s had friendlies away to NPL heavyweight Green Gully last weekend. The seniors lost 2-1 with Gully grabbing the winner in the 80th minute. Langy started well and created chances through James Kelly, Tom Youngs and Jacob Brito before the home side went 1-0 up via a back post header. Langwarrin levelled in the 60th minute after Rogan McGeorge won the ball in midfield then Joe O’Brien set up Brito for a one-on-one with Gully’s keeper and he made no mistake. Both sides made plenty of changes in the second half. Langy’s under-23s lost 5-3 with four triallists and seven under-18s in the matchday squad. One of the under-18s, Jed Hagenaars, scored a hat-trick after coming off the bench with 30 minutes to go. In State 2 news Skye United’s preseason hit-out last Thursday night saw the local side record an excellent 3-2 win over State 1 outfit Collingwood City at Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve. Just four senior players from last season’s squad – Daniel Attard, Alex Van Heerwarden, Nhan Than and Lewis Gibson – turned out for Skye who used a host of triallists. Central defender Zamer Noor from Langwarrin’s under-21s was the most impressive of the newcomers. The former Dandenong Thunder youngster didn’t just defend with
aplomb he scored twice, his first was a header from a Than cross and his second was a thumping drive from outside the box into the top corner of goal. Skye’s third came from Rosebud triallist Riley Gill who pounced on a goalkeeping error. Rosebud’s 2023 State 5 South best and fairest and league Golden Boot winner Noah Musso also played for Skye. Former Frankston Pines captain Ryan Ratcliffe played for Collingwood. In State 4 news Somerville Eagles are hoping to play home games at Western Port Secondary College next season. The Eagles have arranged some practice matches next year with the first on Saturday 13 January against Rosebud at Olympic Park (6pm and 8pm). Other games are: Saturday 3 February v. Bunyip District at Western Port Secondary College, 1pm and 3pm; Saturday 10 February v. Lilydale Utd at Western Port Secondary College, 1pm and 3pm; Saturday 2 March v. Shepparton Utd at John McEwan Reserve, KO times to be announced. A few Mount Martha players have trained with Somerville. Eli Masterson, Jaden Taberner, Corey Riddle and Howie Anderson have trained with the Eagles along with Kyan Taberner from Dandenong Thunder. Meanwhile at Baxter former Frankston Pines head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor took training last Thursday. No doubt this news will send the rumour mill into overdrive. Taylor was filling in for senior coach Stephen Fisher and assistant Hayden Taylor who were both unavailable. Finally here are some upcoming pre-season friendlies involving local clubs: THURSDAY 14 DECEMBER: Springvale White Eagles v Skye Utd, Serbian Sports Centre, 7.30pm. SATURDAY 16 DECEMBER: Langwarrin v Brunswick Juventus, Lawton Park, 4.30pm & 7pm; Rowville Eagles v Chelsea, Parkridge Reserve, 5pm. THURSDAY 21 December: Langwarrin v Nunawading City, Lawton Park, 7.30pm. WEDNESDAY 24 JANUARY: Frankston Pines v Chelsea, Monterey Reserve, 6pm & 8pm.
