NEW MP for Nepean, Labor’s Chris Brayne, left, at the declaration of the poll was congratulated on his win by losing independent, Simon Mulvany.

Young Labor puts pressure on Flinders NEW Nepean MP Chris Brayne received a congratulatory handshake from defeated independent Simon Mulvany after the declaration of the poll at the Australian Electoral Commission offices at Dromana in last week.

Mr Mulvany was the only one of four losing candidates to attend Wednesday’s declaration, the official acknowledgement of Labor’s stunning victory.

The coloured electoral map now

shows the surviving blue Liberal seats sandwiched between the red of Labor in Nepean and Frankston.

Mr Brayne’s election turned history on its head and has cast doubts on the Liberals’ hold on the federal seat of Flinders, currently held by Health Minister Greg Hunt.

Mr Hunt last week said the party would “assess the [state] election result, as we do with all elections, while continuing our work representing the people of Victoria” (“Federal Liberals blamed for lost support” The News 5/12/18).

vember) Mr Brayne had been with friends and supporters at his Balnarring home before joining campaign manager Josh Sinclair for a catch-up at a Mornington McDonald’s when the surprisingly strong ALP-results started coming through.

“The ABC had called [the Nepean win] but we thought they were very premature,” said Mr Sinclair, of Baxter, who in 2013 contested the federal seat of Flinders against Mr Hunt.

Mr Brayne, the youngest new MP in state parliament, took the southern-

peninsula seat with a 12.94 per cent swing against the Liberals on a two party preferred basis.

Election manager Julie Allan declared the official result on Wednesday 5 December with Mr Brayne on 21,512 votes after the distribution of preferences to Mr Joseph’s 20,745 votes.

Ms Allan, who has been an election manager for 24 years, was pleased to receive a call from Mr Joseph thanking her for the way she handled the poll.

She said he was “relaxing somewhere up on the Murray”.

In the lead up to the state election Mr Brayne, 25, gave himself little chance of winning the bluest-of-blue seat against the Liberals’ Russell Joseph, office manager for incumbent Martin Dixon who had held the seat for 16 years.

An arts graduate, Mr Brayne had been chosen by the Labor Party just three months before the election to contest the southermost one of three “unwinnable seats” on the Mornington Peninsula – the others being Hastings and Mornington.

New fence creates problems Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE mayor Cr David Gill was posing for photographs next to a wire and concrete fence designed to stop cliffs jumping at The Pillars, Mt Martha when, as if on cue, an ambulance appeared on the Esplanade behind him.

Realising the value of the unexpected backdrop, Cr Gill said it was the image to use as it underscored Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s concern that injury and possibly death could occur at The Pillars.

Minutes later, the mayor’s enthusiasm for the 400-metre-long temporary fence was challenged by nearby resident Anthony Little who said the fence was causing its own health hazard.

He said the fence was too close to the road and prevented walkers using a narrow track on the inside of the wooden roadside bollards.

Reiterating how the fence was designed to protect the safety of cliff jumpers who were often under the influence of alcohol, Cr Gill assured Mr Little that he would have council officers consider the loss of the path along the seaward side of the Esplanade.

Mr Little said council should make an asset of The Pillars and the scenic views offered by the roadside cliffs by building a boardwalk rather than fencing the area off.

The “temporary fence” comes after several years of the shire being unable to deter cliff jumping, despite alcohol bans (which also affected nearby streets), parking restrictions and visits

by police and shire rangers (“Building a fence for summer at The Pillars” The News 4/12/18).

The state government has previously ruled out fencing off The Pillars so councillors agreed to get around the ban by making the fence “temporary”.

Residents are now wondering how long the temporary eyesore will last.

The shire has also announced a 200 metre ban on water craft from The Pillars without making any provision to enforce the ban.

Although “covert” CCTV cameras

have been installed, there are no penalties for anyone caught inside the fence or within the 200 metre boating no go zone.

The strict, costly measures ($200,000 so far) being applied by the shire to stop cliff jumping follow legal

advice that warned it could be liable and forced to pay compensation for injuries or death at The Pillars.

Cr Gill, a former resident of Mt Martha, acknowledges that he and his children have jumped from the cliffs there but “it’s now being used by people who don’t know where the rocks are hidden below the water”.

Graphic descriptions and photographs The Pillars posted on social media have made it a popular destination for overseas visitors as well as locals.

The rock formations and clear waters have been likened to those found and enjoyed by tourists in Croatia.

Real estate agents have been quick to spot a trend and are using closeness to The Pillars as enticements for holiday rentals and house sales.

Another enterprising company makes “Pillars Victoria 3934” souvenir badges which can be bought at the Mt Martha newsagency.

The trip advisor website has mixed reviews, with people being warned of the lack of parking and dangers of jumping.

On the plus side, The Pillars is seen as a “great place to test your bravery and jump off the cliffs into the stunning colours of the ocean below. Gets busy with the young and wouldn’t want to come on a summers day.

Would be too packed.”

Another correspondent was more astute: “Very popular spot for people to cliff jump. Probably too popular for its own good. Can be unbearably busy at times. Unfortunately, local shire is going to shut public [out] with fencing.”

Fishing ‘now in the best hands’

Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

THE Futurefish Foundation has applauded the state government’s move to create a fishing and boating department – and again criticised Mornington Peninsula Shire Council for daring to suggest it was in a position to negotiate with the government on boat ramp control.

Described as a first for any state, the department to be headed by MP Jaala Pulford aims to “recognise the growth and popularity of recreational fishing and boating and how important that community is to this state government”, Futurefish Foundation director David Kramer said.

“Having a dedicated portfolio for fishing and boating will make the transition of bringing the management of all boat ramps under one single authority much easier, and will deliver facilities that boaters and fishers have been calling for decades.”

The shire has six ramps: five on Port Phillip at Schnapper Point, Fishermans Beach, Mornington; Safety Beach; Rye; and Sorrento, and one at Hastings. Sand ramps at Mt Martha and Flinders can be used by tractors and four-wheel-drives only.

Other ramps include Tootgarook (managed by the Capel Sound foreshore committee) and Flinders (run by Parks Victoria).

The shire last month suggested the state government would have to guarantee the same level of financial support and maintenance of the peninsula’s boat ramps as was provided by the council or any change to their management would not be supported (“Back up ramp funding or no deal, says shire” The News 27/11/18).

Mr Kramer waded in: “With councils, [including] Mornington Peninsula Shire, saying they may not do a deal with the state government, they will

very soon realise that this isn’t a deal.

“There is a new minister in charge of boating and it’s a simple matter of changing the management authority for the footprint of publicly owned land used for boat launching and trailer parking,” he said.

“The Mornington Peninsula Shire have their head in the sand if they think this is some sort of tug-of-war over who will manage boat ramps in the future.

“This is an Andrews government commitment, made publicly, and isn’t up for negotiation.”

Mr Kramer said the state government was “set to move swiftly on this issue and make boat ramps free, more user friendly, and with upgraded facilities, such as fish cleaning tables, to meet the expectations of the tens of thousands of boaters and fishers on the peninsula”. “While reconstruction of the Rye boat ramp is welcomed, the proposed Hastings ramp plan – to demolish the Western Port Angling Club’s clubrooms to make way for an additional six car parks – does not meet the expectations of anglers.”

He said Ms Pulford had delivered a “plethora of fishing improvements during the last term of government as minister for agriculture”.

“She has a proven track record of delivering for recreational anglers. Her list includes taking the commercial fishing nets out of Port Phillip, stocking a record number of fish into Victorian waters and converting Fisheries Victoria into a statutory authority, now known as the Victorian Fisheries Authority.”

Mr Kramer said with the Nepean electorate “falling into Labor’s hands” Futurefish Foundation believes the peninsula’s boating and fishing facilities “look to be finally in the best hands to receive the care and attention they have needed for decades”.

Thinking of those less fortunate: Jodie Harris from Mums Supporting Families accepts a donation of toys from Mornington Peninsula News Group’s Melissa McCullough. Picture: Gary Sissons

Giving gifts to those in need WITH Christmas just around the corner, we’re all busy getting things ready for spending time with our families and the traditional giving of gifts that goes along with it.

But spare a thought for those less fortunate, and the reality that Christmas morning may not bring the joy to children that we all enjoy.

One organisation is doing its best to spread the Christmas cheer by accepting donations of new toys for distribution to families in need.

“We’ve never had a greater demand”, said Mums Supporting Families in Need’s founder and president, Jodie Harris.

“People out there are really struggling, and we’re doing our best to make sure they are provided for.”

The charity, located in Seaford, collects quality second hand cots, prams, food, toys and clothing to disadvantaged families.

They then liase with welfare agencies to pass the collected goods on to the needy.

At this time of year, the focus shifts to new toy items, non perishable food items and toiletries .

“We have a formula for the toys we give for the kids,” said Ms Harris.

“It is something to cuddle, something for the family to play with together and something with a ‘wow’ factor.”

Melissa McCullough, who runs Peninsula Kids magazine at Mornington Peninsula News Group, dropped in a few boxes of toys and books recently to support the charity.

“I think this is a great cause, and we can all do our bit to bring joy to those who struggle.

“I’d like to urge everybody to consider purchasing and giving some new toys to Mums Supporting Families in Need, so they can spread joy for Christmas morning.”

See msfin.org.au for donation details, address and opening hours. Mums Supporting Families in Need will be working up until 21 December.

Shipbuilder setting sail for Yaringa Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au LONG-TIME Mornington boat builder Hart Marine is about to cast off and set sail for Yaringa Boat Harbour in Western Port.

Owner Mal Hart says his business has outgrown its Yuilles Road, Mornington base and will be moving its manufacturing and marine servicing headquarters to Yaringa.

Mr Hart said he was waiting on state government approval of new leases before completing the arrangement with Yaringa owner, Stefan Borzecki.

He said Hart Marine would lease the southern half of the Yaringa complex which includes the hard stand area next to the channel, the boat lifter and the marine services area.

The new site woul improve Hart Marine’s ability to produce highend patrol boats using fibre-reinforced plastic hulls of the French Pantocarene ORC design in the 15-17 metre range.

To launch these boats the company previously had to run the gauntlet of narrow roads and dangling power and telephone wires during early morning low-loader rides down Main Street to the Mornington Yacht Club ramp at the pier. It was then necessary to dock at Martha Cove to handle any cosmetic works. None of these drawbacks will be a factor at Yaringa.

Mr Hart said the move was necessary to allow the 35-year-old company – with 85-staff and 26 apprentices – to achieve its full potential.

“We have been expanding and buying up neighbouring factories around us in Mornington, but we need water,” he said.

“Mornington was getting smaller while our boats are getting bigger.”

Mr Hart said the peninsula had to retain its manufacturing ability.

“If we don’t keep manufacturing here who else is going to do it?

“There are 100,000 kids studying here and we have to provide a manufacturing environment for them from school to the workplace, or the peninsula will become a retirement village.”

He sees Yaringa as a “great spot with a great future. We are reenergised. I like to think that Stefan has handed us the baton and we are running with it.”

Hart Marine has changed tack from the pre-GFC days when it built primarily for the pleasure-boat market. It now specialises in producing high-end commercial and government-authority craft for the police, pilot services, port authorities and border security.

With Stephen Taylor

School zone crackdown FOUR motorists were fined for speeding outside Mt Erin High School, Robinsons Road, Frankston South, and two for speeding past Mornington Primary School, Tanti Avenue, last week.

The drivers travelling 10-24kph over the limit were each fined $322 and lost three demerit points.

Somerville Highway Patrol warns motorists that its members and council officers are keeping an eye on school zones in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula areas after receiving complaints about a range of incidents – mainly speeding.

“Most people do the right thing, however some drivers are committing offences with little regard to the safety of children, parents and other road users,” Leading Senior Constable Greg Wolfe said.

Applicable fines include: Exceeding the speed limit by less than 10kph, $201 fine and one demerit point; exceeding the speed limit by 10-24kph, $322 and three points; exceeding the speed limit by 25-29kph, $443 and three months licence suspension.

Animal cruelty reports on rise FRANKSTON has come fourth on an RSPCA Victoria list showing the number of cruelty to animals reports during 2017 and 2018.

The Mornington Peninsula was ninth on the list which was topped by Geelong.

RSPCA Victoria CEO Dr Liz Walker said that for the third year in a row, issues with providing the most basic standards of living for animals – enough food, water and shelter - made up the highest proportion of offences reported.

“It breaks our hearts to see our Inspectors and vets attend to so many animals that are severely malnourished and ill, who clearly haven’t been shown even the most basic level of care,” Dr Walker said.

“These statistics reflect that there is still a lot of important work that needs to be done to educate Victorians and improve animal welfare in our communities.”

In 2017-18, RSPCA Victoria received 10,642 cruelty reports – about 29 a day, and an increase of more than 500 reports compared to last year (10,180). These reports contained 18,098 indi-

‘Top’ seal makes four-day stopover WHILE it’s not uncommon to find a seal on Mornington Peninsula beaches or rocky outcrops, this one that came ashore at Dromana was a bit of a mystery for onlookers.

It looked different to the Australia fur seals regularly seen Port Phillip and which make their home at Chinaman's Hat, the octagonal shipping beacon in the South Channel off Blairgowrie.

Ryhs Horobin said he and his partner Angelika Schernthaner were thrilled to identify the leopard seal which was probably more at home in Antarctica.

He said the male seal was about 15 years old stayed for about fours days on the beach at Dromana in early November.

While acknowledging the novelty of seeing leopard seals, Dolphin Research Institute director Jeff Weir says their presence in the bay raises many questions, including "anecdotes" about changes to food stocks and strandings [of whales] “in the wider ocean”.

He sees these reports as “really big picture worrying signs”.

“Why do these odd solitary animals come so far out of their range?” Mr Weir said.

“Are they like human hermits? Are they unhealthy and can't compete? Is there something happening to their normal range that is making it hard for them to feed?

“We've seen leopard seals here before, so it might be that the hermit analogy best applies.”

Leopard seals are also known as sea leopards and are the second largest species of seal in the Antarctic.

They follow killer whales as being the Antarctica's top predator and prey on many animals, including cephalopods (including octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish), other seals, krill, birds and fish. Killer whale, or orcas, will prey on leopard seals.

While potentially dangerous to humans, attacks by leopard seals are rare.

Best wishes: Family and friends of centenarian Toni Davis celebrate her birthday at Mornington’s new Village Glen last week. Picture: Yanni

Letters lift centenarian’s big day

LETTERS of congratulation from the Queen, the Governor-General, Premier and Flinders MP Greg Hunt, were welcome acknowledgements to Mornington centenarian Toni Davis.

The Village Glen resident celebrated her 100th birthday with family and friends in the new building, Thursday 6 December, before a family dinner at Mornington Golf Club on the Saturday.

Ms Davis’s son, Brian, described the arrival of the congratulatory letters as “an ongoing scenario”.

“They were all beautifully done and very well presented,” he said.

12 December 2018

He paid tribute to his mother who he said was a “very capable bridge player” who had enjoyed golf in her younger years.

Ms Davis, who was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1918, suffered from polio and migrated to Sydney with her parents as a four-year-old.

She grew up at Bondi and, in her early 20s, married Rex Davis, now 99. They have been together ever since.

The family – which by then included eightyear-old Brian – moved to Melbourne where Mr Davis was a self-employed manufacturer of orthopaedic and chiropody equipment, such as

braces and callipers.

They lived mostly in the eastern suburbs, such as Ivanhoe, Eaglemont and North Balwyn, before retiring in 1978 to live at Bayview, near Pittwater in NSW. Son Brian by this time had married wife Sharon and, after also living in the eastern suburbs, moved to Mt Eliza.

When his parents got to the stage they needed care, Brian brought them back to the Mornington Peninsula so he could be near them.

They have enjoyed being “early arrivals” at the new aged car home on the corner of Wills Street and Nepean Highway, Mornington.

Heated words for fire ‘spectators’ AN artist’s impression of how AGL’s floating gas terminal and infrastructure will look if given the go ahead at Crib Point.

The photo is reproduced from the AGL website.

Extra hurdle for AGL’s gas plan POWER company AGL is now being called on by both the state and federal governments to provide further details about likely impacts of the floating gas import terminal it wants to operate at Crib Point.

The Commonwealth Department of Environment and Energy has stated that the proposed AGL processing terminal and pipeline from Crib Point to Pakenham was considered a “controlled action” requiring assessment and approval under the Federal Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).

The decision followed letters from residents to Environment Minister Melissa Price detailing their concerns about AGL’s plans.

The process will now require AGL and pipeline operator APA to provide more information, including an environmental impact statement (EIS) detailing likely hazards to Western Port and its endangered species and how these

would be dealt with.

The final scoping requirements will be made public with an EES consultation plan for the public in 2019.

The federal government’s decision followed the state government's announcement on 26 November that public comments are now open on the draft scoping requirements for the environmental effects statement (EES).

The 29-page draft scoping requirements report details matters that will be investigated and documented in the EES for the gas terminal and pipeline.

Community group Save Westernport welcomed the state and federal governments’ demands for AGL to provide greater detail about what it terms the project’s “many hazards, including the potential health and safety risks to Crib Point residents”.

“In light of AGL’s poor track record, people are extremely concerned about the project

and believe its many risks cannot be justified,” Save Westernport member Julia Stockigt said.

“They want to know that this project will not be allowed to degrade the marine ecosystems of Western Port that provide so much benefit and sustain local recreation, fishing and aquaculture businesses that rely on a healthy bay.”

Save Westernport is urging members of the public to send submissions to environment. assessment@delwp.vic.gov.au by 5pm on 19 December.

To read the draft scoping requirements for the EES go to Savewesternport.org AGL and APA have organised a “community drop in session” 7.30-9.30 tonight at Hastings Hall, High Street, Hastings to provide details of the EES process. The session will be attended by representatives from AGL, APA and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP).

SIGHTSEERS – some wearing shorts, t-shirts and thongs – were an unwelcome distraction for firefighters battling a blaze near a vacant property on the corner of Forest Drive and Hearn Road, Saturday 1 December.

The fire was near the camp at the Joseph Harris Scout Park – an area rated extreme in a Mornington Peninsula Shire Council assessment of bushfire prone areas on the peninsula.

Captain Travis Hutchins said the Mt Martha brigade was called to a “large column of smoke” about 5.30pm.

Access was difficult for the larger vehicles and the brigade responded with several ultra-light tankers and other appliances.

“Due to the terrain, vegetation and the wind, air support was requested which included an Erickson air crane,” Captain Hutchins said.

“The air crane drew water from the bay and delivered it to the head of the fire. Crews took three hours to bring the blaze under control and Mt Martha crews did not leave the site until 1.30am.”

Captain Hutchins said the poorly attired sightseers, oblivious to the danger, had put themselves at risk on two fronts: shorts, t-shirts and thongs will not give adequate protection in a bushfire, while the air crane can carry up to 9000 litres – nine tonnes – of water.

“What would have happened to any of these inquisitive locals if they had been caught under the deluge from the helicopter?” Captain Hutchins said.

“Firefighters are distracted from the job of fighting a fire when they have to protect spectators taking photographs. People put themselves at an extreme risk by walking into bushland when an active fire is occurring.”

Captain Hutchins said the brigade recently doorknocked houses in the area to encourage residents to draw up a bushfire plan.

“Those interested in volunteering can contact the brigade via our Facebook page or call at the station, at 6 Latrobe Drive, Mt Martha, any Sunday morning,” he said.

Shore watch for jet ski ‘hoons’ JET ski hoons are increasingly being monitored from the shore.

Maritime Safety Victoria (MSV) says it has more officers using onshore surveillance of jet skis which are “a growing risk to safety”.

The announcement by MSV comes just days after Mornington Peninsula Shire opened new boat launching ramps at Rye despite critics claiming they will increase hoon behaviour by jet ski riders.

“Surveillance footage of people riding personal watercraft – such as jet skis – is evidence of the obvious risk,” MSV director Rachel Gualano said.

“Injuries caused by jet ski collisions are significant. They have drastically

impacted people’s ability to work and live normal lives, and in other cases resulted in death.

“Our data, in-field observations and other intel suggest that the likelihood of collisions is growing, putting more beach goers at greater risk of injury or death.”

Ms Gualano said it was a “small but reckless group of individuals who are also putting public tolerance of these kinds of vessels at our beaches at risk”.

Jet ski owners could be fined up to $1612 for allowing it to be used by someone who was unlicensed.

Ms Gualano said beach goers on the Mornington Peninsula “are feeling a greater threat from [jet skis]”.

“MSV works with local council and other enforcement agencies such as Victoria Water Police and Parks Victoria, who all report increasing congestion in our waterways,” she said.

Jet ski riders face fines of $322 for breaking speed and distance rules; $806 for riding an unregistered craft or riding while unlicensed; if a speed and distance rule offence, or operating unlicensed, is successfully prosecuted, the court may impose up to $3223 for each offence. Courts can also impose a $9660 penalty for operating an unregistered craft. The rules and MSV’s Ride Right safety advice is available at transportsafety.vic.gov.au/msv/pwc Keith Platt

Search for missing driver BONEO CFA brigade members used thermal imaging cameras to search bushland for the driver of a car which crashed on Browns Road, Rye, early Saturday 1 December.

The Honda sedan, which did not have a rear number plate, was extensively damaged in the roll-over. It is not clear how the driver got out, nor the extent of their injuries.

Leading Senior Constable Shane Byrne, of Rye police, said units were tied up at the scene until 5am. There was no record of the driver being found.

Christmas lunch SOUTHERN Peninsula VIEW Club will hold its Christmas lunch at Rosebud Country Club, 207 Boneo Road, Rosebud, 12.30pm, Thursday 13 December.

The club was formed recently with 28 members. The new committee offers social activities for members while raising funds to support The Smith Family charity for children. One immediate project is supporting a school in the Frankston area where The Smith Family has a new program.

Members of the community are encouraged to give to The Smith Family so that children in struggling families do not miss out.

The club welcomes new members. Its first meeting for 2019 is on Thursday 14 February at Rosebud Country Club.

THE re-elected state Labor government announced its new cabinet on 29 November, with Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke appointed parliamentary secretary for police and emergency services.

Mr Edbrooke said in a Facebook post “it’s a huge honour to be appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Police and Emergency Services.

Lisa Neville MP is an incredibly effective minister and I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to working beside her.

“I have worked alongside ambos, SES, police officers and firefighters for a long time. I know what it’s like for first responders because I have been one myself. Having been a firefighter for 14 years, working with all services on Black Saturday, spending weeks leading staff and volunteer crews at the Morwell Mine Fire and training at Fiskville has given me valuable insight into the challenges our police and emergency services face.”

Mr Edbrooke defeated Liberal candidate Michael Lamb, a police officer, to retain his seat.

IN what seems a very short time, Geena Davy has jumped from being an unknown athlete to one that has won a gold medal at the national level.

Eleven-year-old Geena Davy, of Red Hill, only began showing ability in horizontal jumping about 14 months ago, according to her mother Rebecca.

“At school athletics Geena quickly proceeded through to state level, picking up gold in triple Jump and silver in long jump,” Ms Davy said.

“She was selected to represent Victoria at the nationals at Lakeside Stadium, Melbourne in November for long jump.”

The five-day event saw Geena, who is in grade six at Balcombe Grammar School, Mt Martha, make a gold winning jump of 4.89 metres – a distance that was also a personal best.

However, Geena says the triple jump is her favourite event but athletes are not able to compete at the national level until they are 13.

Geena joined Southern Peninsula Little Athletics last year and broke a near 30-year club record teo weeks ago with a 10.50 metre triple jump.

As the athletics season has just begun Geena is competing in her jumps events, 100 metre sprint, hurdles and discus.

On top of her athletics achievements, Geena was recently graded for her brown belt in karate, zen do kai.

“Geena now has a personal coach and is going from strength to strength,” Ms Davy said.

Pool saga worthy script fodder for TV satire What a shame that a script writer for the ABC’s political satire Utopia was not at the recent Mornington Peninsula Shire Council meeting, as the discussion regarding the Rosebud Aquatic Centre would have provided material for at least three episodes.

Still smarting from having their previously well-reasoned, logical recommendation for a 25 metre pool complex rejected by council, shire officers submit a design for the 50m pool option at a cost $5 million more than the budget previously set by councillors.

So, do councillors instruct the officers to go back and redesign the pool to ensure it meets the budget? No, they support and approve the design and the urgent need to get the construction tender process underway; which is code for “make sure it gets built before September 2020”.

Following rational arguments presented by Crs Bev Colomb and David Gill, council votes to reject the recommendation to increase the budget. So how do you approve a design concept that will cost at least $46.5m but not the budget to match?

A series of vitriolic exchanges and emotional rants result in council, having just dismissed a budget increase, agreeing to “consider further funding options”. What is the probability that the estimated cost at that time miraculously increases to $50m and, with no further external funding, council then “reluctantly agrees” to raise the external funding limits to enable the increased budget to be covered?

With an eye firmly on the size of the plaque that will proudly display current councillors’ names for delivering this wonderful project before the current council term expires, the “the usual suspect” proudly announces that they must give the community “a positive outcome”.

Bring on the next series of Utopia, as the current council just “keep on giving” the farcical story lines.

Stuart Allen, Dromana

Deepening debt Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s management of the cost of the Rosebud Pool is incompetent.

Since August 2017, the estimated cost of the pool has increased by a whopping $9.6m to $46.6m despite the pool being reduced from 10 to eight lanes. The depth has also been reduced at the shallow end so now it is not a regional pool, according to Swimming Australia’s rules.

Worse still, the council may have to find an extra $17.7m because only $5m has been secured when there was an expectation that up to $13m might be provided by the state and federal governments.

There have also been millions of dollars wasted on consultants reports, ground investigation and the design competition on the failed Rosebud foreshore location, and the $8m spent purchasing the Rosebud Central Shopping Centre which became a white elephant when it

SouthernPeninsula Peninsula Southern

was found that it was unsuitable and too costly for the pool.

Careful reading of the of the Council’s decision on 27 November shows that the comment that the cap of $41.57m was reiterated is incorrect (“Shire looks for help to avoid deeper pool debt” The News, 4/12/18) as the officers were instructed to proceed with the design which is estimated will cost $46.6m to build not $41.57m).

The decision also says that only the additional funding above the cap (not the cost – there is a subtle difference) will be reviewed after tenders have been received. Commonsense suggests as Cr Bev Colomb wisely pointed that the finance should be resolved before tendering.

Having already put industry to considerable expense by failing to award a contract following the earlier pool design competition it would be arrogant to say the least if the lesson has not been learnt and another tender is screwed up.

Dr Alan Nelsen, McCrae

The ‘Pillethic’ fence Of all the mistakes Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has made, this tops the list. I am referring to the ugly fence that has been erected (in the name of safety) along the Esplanade, Mt Martha.

I would like to know the statistics of injuries that have occurred as a result of people jumping off The Pillars as cliff jumping is not a phenomenon of just the past few years. I have lived at Mt Martha for more than 35 years and my sons, both in their 30s, fondly remember going there with friends back in the early 1990s.

The council should realise that its reckless decision to build the temporary fence could in fact cause chaos and injury as it is human nature that when something is banned it becomes more of an attraction.

The council has taken away the freedom to enjoy the beauty of this spot.

The few residents that have complained of the interruption to their privileged life should take a moment and think when they visit other places of beauty about whether it impacts the locals.

(It’s all about moi, i’m sure ) Instead of embracing the attraction we have here in Mt Martha councillors have set us up as the head village of the nanny state.

Welmoedina Jansen, Mt Martha

Make way for Russell Now that the local pollies have sorted themselves out for a further four years employment at our expense, perhaps a few of the recycled seat warmers who have gone past their use by date might honourably consider some succession plan for generating hope, enthusiasm and new ideas in the younger generations.

Become a mentor, get interested in after public service employment, discover a hands on community role, get down and dirty with the

Over the top at The Pillars Here is a picture I took on the first day of the “not so successful” fence at work at The Pillars, Mt Martha. I’m not sure what the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council expected, but the young crew see the fence as a challenge, not a deterrent.

Because people are walking along the top of the balustrade, it’s actually become far more dangerous than it was and, as a daily driver along the Esplanade, it’s a matter of time before someone gets hit now that the risk has increased significantly.

The wash up is that the fence is keeping the wrong people out. The people who respect and look after The Pillars actually “respect” the fact that it’s closed and will no longer enter. The disrespectful users simply push their way through and will continue to be a local menace, drinking, disrupting and leaving rubbish around.

Name and address supplied, Mt Martha needy, evoke leadership and innovative projects, rediscover the local communities that your have become disconnected from.

Offer genuine talent and community spirited locals such as the recently defeated Liberal Nepean candidate Russell Joseph a position, perhaps as a possible future MP for a dyed in the wool Liberal safe sinecure seat.

We can ill afford to lose the calibre of such people as Russell and I for one would vote for him despite the probable two four-year parliaments in the wilderness that Mornington Peninsula Liberals face. Common sense clearly indicates a new direction and fresh approach.

Ian Morrison, Mt Eliza

Inside running Ken Hailes seems to be incredibly well informed about issues pertaining to the Australia Border Force (“Not too desperate” Letters 4/12/18). Is he a spook? Or how else can he have all this information on refugees on Nauru?

Us ordinary people would not be able to get such “sensitive “ information from the powers that be.

And taking out his displeasure about the loss of Nepean [by the Liberals] to Labor on the worthy cause of Grandmothers for Refugees seems a bit petty.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

News outlet I’m very disappointed that Woolworths, Rye has ceased stocking my favourite weekly read —

The Southern Peninsula News. Seeing as I now have to collect it from the IGA down the road, I might as well buy my groceries there while I’m at it.

Fred Wild, Rye

Time for change A new report this week has suggested that phrases featuring cruelty to animals such as “bring home the bacon” will die out as more and more people go vegan.

The English language grows, evolves and adapts, and this change makes a lot of sense.

PETA is suggesting that people start using fun phrases like “taking a flower by the thorns” instead of “taking a bull by the horns”.

Phrases that perpetuate violence toward animals have no place in our modern society, where we recognise that animals are sentient beings.

While people are working hard to eliminate hate speech related to sexism, racism and bigotry, we should also be employing more compassionate language in relation to animals.

When you think about it, the phrase “more than one way to skin a cat” is disgusting. Millions of cats in China suffer unimaginably as they are skinned for their fur, which is something that makes Australians who consider our cats members of our family sick to our stomachs.

Who would argue against changing that vile expression to “more than one way to peel a potato”?

Desmond Bellamy, special projects coordinator, PETA Australia

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Kris Kringle Catastrophes of Christmases Past

By Stuart McCullough DANGER! Once more we find ourselves knee-deep in the most treacherous time of year, where anything can and possibly will go wrong. Granted, on the surface Christmas is all about good cheer and bonhomie but the smallest miscalculation can cause it to collapse like a house of cards.

And by ‘house of cards’ I don’t mean building materials you can use for gin rummy but a Netflix series that began to outstay its welcome midway through season one but lumbered on regardless towards a calamitous end that became an unpleasant endurance test. That bad.

Christmas means a lot of things family, presents and the chance to set your dessert on fire with brandy sauce. (Nothing whets the appetite more than the sight of your meal bursting into flames.) I’m ashamed to say it, but these days we list all our family members on a spreadsheet to ensure both coverage and equity when it comes to buying gifts. This time of year also means dragging the Christmas tree out of the shed and trying to untangle the lights. But if you work, Christmas means that you may need to be part of the office Kris Kringle.

I don’t know what the origins are, but the office Kris Kringle is something that can go oh-so-wrong oh-soeasily. Years ago, when I first started working, our office had a five dollar limit for its Kris Kringle. I received aftershave. The aftershave was called ‘Brando’ and, frankly, what young man in his early twenties wouldn’t want to smell like a reclusive semiobese actor, especially while at work?

Opening the bottle was like kicking down the gates to Hell itself, as a pungent odour that could only be the work of the Dark Lord attacked my nostrils. Although there was a five-dollar limit, I couldn’t help but wonder what my Kris Kringle had done with the rest of the money.

It got worse. One of my colleagues, her sense of olfactory justice incensed by the powerful stench that had been loosed from the bowels of the Brando bottle, decided that the best way to avenge this Yuletide injustice was to pour it all over my desk. It was a long time ago, and it’s possible my recollection has become less reliable as time has marched on. But as the ‘Brando’ hit the desk, plumes of foul-smelling smoke rose up. I wouldn’t have been surprised if, after the smoke cleared, there was a genie there. He’d have been the spitting image of image of Brando as Colonel Kurtz, hand sweeping his bald head

and whispering something about ‘the horror, the horror’.

Choosing a Kris Kringle for someone else is equally hazardous. In years gone by, I’ve selected albums I’ve liked and given them to others only to watch on as they opened their gift and their facial expression made the journey from perplexed to plaintive disappointment in a matter of seconds. Astounded that another human being wouldn’t want Elvis Costello’s third album ‘Armed Forces’ complete with bonus tracks a mere twenty four years after it was first released, I found myself wanting to grab my underwhelmed colleague by the shoulders and shake them, shouting, ‘it’s been re-mastered for crying out loud!’.

No doubt, such gifts are to others what ‘Brando’ aftershave is to me.

There’s probably an article in some other local newspaper referring to the time the author was lumbered with an

Elvis Costello album for Christmas.

After several more unsuccessful attempts to impose my musical preferences on others, I decided to take a different approach. After observing numerous Kris Kringle events, I began to notice that some gifts are go-to crowd-pleasers. These sure-fire successes include coffee mugs (with or without some kind of slogan), gift vouchers and picture frames. These are the perennials, the gifts that never disappoint.

I decided on a picture frame. Partly because I couldn’t find a coffee mug with a slogan I considered sufficiently witty without being vulgar and because I wanted to avoid a voucher. But to make it extra special, I used the company’s digital camera to take a picture of myself. Normally photo frames come with a picture of total strangers. What better way to personalize a gift than by including a picture of me?

I could tell by the look on Brian’s face that he was surprised. I’d like to think he was overwhelmed at the quality of the photo. He was strangely quiet the rest of the afternoon. I can’t say I ever saw the picture frame in his office. A short time later, he retired.

To the best of my knowledge, my Kris Kringle gift had nothing to do with his decision to stop working completely. I hope not.

This weekend, I’ve got to choose a Kris Kringle gift. I’ll be steering clear of picture frames and the works of Elvis Costello more generally. I’ll be getting a voucher. It’s safer that way.

Incidentally, I did a quick search for ‘Brando’ aftershave and found someone selling it for thirty-five dollars US a bottle. That’s quite the increase in value. Which goes to show how time can make almost anything seem more precious. Happy Christmas everyone. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Welcome home to returned soldiers at Frankston Compiled by Brodie Cowburn THE second welcome home to returned soldiers inaugurated by the Welcome Home committee took place, on Friday evening last in the Mechanics’ Hall, when the seating accommodation of the building was taxed to its utmost to hold those who were anxious to extend the hand of welcome to those, who for the last four years had been facing death and mutilation in defence of their country.

The names of the returned men are: Ferrier Sergeant Smith, Private H. Covington, Private Granger, Private Robt. Walker, Corporal Carter, Private D. Downs and Wireless Operator Tait.

Cr, Oates occupied the chair. After the National Anthem had been sung, the newly formed orchestra, under the baton of Mr W. Aisbett, played the overture in a highly creditable manner, the audience showing their appreciation by hearty applause.

The programme, which was a really first-class one, was got up by Mrs W. P. Mason, who deserves the thanks of the community for the treat they enjoyed on Friday evening.

Mrs Boyett, who played the accompaniments to the songs, also proved invaluable in accruing the success of the function.

The hall was prettily decorated with greenery and flags by the following ladies :Mesdames Cunneen, Petrie, Connal and J. Wells.

Cr. Oates gave a hearty welcome to the returned men and said that the object of the gathering was to give them the hand of welcome, and some of them they had not seen for four years.

He was pleased that the armistice had been signed, and it must be a great relief for them to feel that they would not be needed at the front again.

In Gallipoli and France they had more than held their own against the best that could be put against them, and we were proud to extend the band of welcome to them, and at the same time to thank them for the liberty that we were now privileged to enjoy through them.

Rev. E. Tonkin also heartily welcomed them back. They had done a great work and saved the world from barbarism.

Corporal Carter, on behalf of himself and comrades returned thanks for the hearty welcome they had received.

Refreshments provided, under the capable management of Mrs H M’Comb were then handed round after which an enjoyable dance was held to music kindly supplied by visitors, winding up one of the most successful functions ever held in Frankston. *** THE evening services at the Methodist Church and Church of England Frankston begin from next Sunday at 7.30pm instead of 7pm as hitherto. *** A GENERAL meeting of the Somerville Fruitgrowers Association will be held on Monday Dec 16th at 8pm in the local hall. Business – Election of President: Election of show committee, taxation of orchards and other. *** Mrs W. G. Connal ‘The Anchorage’ Frankston, has been officially notified by the Defence Department

that her husband, Corp. W. G. Connal was admitted to St Anslem’s hospital, V.A.D on 20/11/18 suffering from arthritis, severe. *** A SHARK 7 ft 6in long was dispatched at Seaford on Sunday last.

Persons who claim to have witnessed the incident state that two bathers dragged the monster out of the water by the tail and killed it on the sand with an iron bar. *** AT a meeting of the Returned Sailors’ and Soldiers’ League held on Friday last, it was decided in view of the ready offers by many well known artists to perform, to hold a concert on Saturday 21st inst at 8pm in the Mechanics’ Hall Frankston.

The funds are to assist the League’s effort to erect a Memorial Hall. *** A MEETING of residents was held at the Frankston school last Wednesday evening, to consider what could be done to give the children a Christmas treat.

Mr Hartland was voted to the chair.

The feeling of the meeting was strongly in favor of giving the children a jolly time to close a hard year’s work.

On the motion of Mrs Rogerson it was unanimously decided to have a “break up” on Thursday 19th December with a grand Christmas Tree as the central attraction.

Parents, friends and tiny tots are cordially invited to come and join in the fun.

The four prizes won by the babies on Flower Day will be presented, and all the babies who competed are specially requested to be present.

The question of how to raise funds was discussed, but it was felt that the ever generous Frankstonites had but to know, and the willing hand would seek the pocket. *** THE fire alarm bell rang out with startling effect in Frankston on Thursday afternoon, the cause being a fire starting in the scrub on the Hastings Road, the wind speedly driving it in dangerous proximity to a number of cottages in the vicinity.

A number of willing hands quickly got to work and put out what if allowed to spread would have meant destruction to a number of tenants.

Householders in the vicinity of scrub should take warning by this, and cut a number of fire breaks in the vicinity of their dwellings, so as to minimise the danger. *** WITH our next week’s issue we will present our subscribers with a nicely got up calendar for 1919. As usual there will be no issue of the “Standard” on the 28th December, so as to allow our staff to take the benefit of the holidays at Xmas and New Year. *** PNEUMONIA Influenza. During the past few weeks, Australia has witnessed the most complete and extensive quarantine measures ever carried out in any country.

For some months a new disease pneumonia influenza has prevailed in Spain, Germany, Austria, and America.

It spread with alarming rapidity and fearful mortality and soon invaded England and has been carried in passenger and troop ships to New Zealand and Australia.

From lack of stringent quarantine the disease got a foothold in New Zealand with disastrous results, but here in Australia Dr Compston, chief quarantine officer immediately put into operation all the machinery devised to keep infective disease out of the Commonwealth.

Infected ships arriving in any port of Australia were put in strict quarantine; no person exposed to infection were allowed to leave quarantine for a week, and in every case such persons were treated with a spray of sulphate of zinc.

Over 4000 persons have been handled in this manner, and thanks to the energetic measures, together with vaccine or inoculation treatment the mortality has so far been kept at the low figure of 3 per cent.

The medical officers at the various quarantine stations have uniformly found that a vaccine or culture prepared from the bactisia of this disease appear to prevent serious complication to reduce mortality, and a similar report comes from South Africa.

It is pointed out that two or more inoculations are necessary to establish protection.

We are by no means yet done with the disease; ships are arriving with more cases every week and therefore precautions must not be relaxed.

If Dr Compston succeeds in keeping this deadly form of Influenza from spreading in Australia, it will be one of the finest triumphs of medical administration on record. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 14 December 1918

specialists HANDS

Oncology rehabilitation program TREATMENT for cancer may cause fatigue, however taking part in a regular structured exercise program is important in many ways including a greater sense of wellbeing.

St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital’s outpatient oncology rehabilitation program is a 6 week, twice per week program, which incorporates information sessions, meditation, tai chi, exercise and hydrotherapy (if hydro is suitable for you). The program is tailored to meet your individual needs and goals.

How it might help: The information sessions are interactive and discuss topics that can assist you in your day-to-day life, such as healthy food choices, tips on managing stress, pacing yourself through the day, and the benefits of exercise.

The mindfulness session, guided by Rivka, an Occupational Therapist, is a weekly 30-minute session to help you wind down and refocus, which compliments the tai chi, also a weekly 30 minute session that provides whole body movement whilst concentrating on the correct moves. It is a body and brain workout, which helps you free your mind and is a great way to reduce tension.

The exercise session is 60 minutes of light to moderate exercise with Sam, an Exercise Physiologist. Sam will see you prior to commencing to assess your physical ability and individually

tailor your exercise program.

Hydrotherapy is new to oncology rehabilitation, but early research shows it is an effective method of exercise. The water is 34 degrees and whilst the water resistance provides a great workout, it is also a very relaxing session. Whilst patients are encouraged to participate, the Oncology team know hydrotherapy is not for everyone, so an alternative gym session can be provided instead.

Feedback from patients has been very positive. Here is what some of the attending patients have said about the program: “Many thanks to the course leaders for their understanding and care.”

“This program is invaluable not only for its exercise and information components but the social aspect with others in a similar situation. With constant monitoring all participants can work within their capabilities with friendly and attentive staff.”

“This is an excellent program that needs to be available to as many people as possible.”

“Thank you for the opportunity to participate.”

“Inspirational.”

The program is run regularly throughout the year and positions are readily available; simply ask your Specialist or GP for a referral to one of the Rehabilitation Physicians.

Once the referral is received, a complete a medical assessment will be undertaken

Oncology Rehabilitation: Some of the Active Health and Wellbeing team at SJOG.

before you commence the program.

You will then meet Rebecca the Oncology Rehabilitation Nurse along with Sam and Rivka who will guide you through the 6-week program.

They also cater for patients who require inpatient rehabilitation, for

those who have goals that are more easily met with daily intensive therapy.

If you have any questions or would like further information, please contact the hospital on 9788 3333 and ask to speak with Rebecca Nolan

or Sam Buchanan.

Close finish set for Pines, Crib Point clash

By Brodie Cowburn

PENINSULA

PINES have bounced back from a patchy opening innings to bowl well and put themselves in the box seat for a win in the first day of their clash against Crib Point.

Pines only batted for a little more than 48 overs before being bowled out away from home at Crib Point Recreation Reserve.

Waide Symes did most of the damage with the ball, taking 4/44 as his side restricted the Pines to just 152.

Chasing down a very attainable target, Crib Point got things started on the wrong foot.

Adam Keulen was the only batsman who made a start, ending the day not out for 29. Crib Point finished at 3/49 at stumps, setting day two up for a close finish.

At Somerville Reserve, the home side suffered a difficult afternoon against Main Ridge.

Somerville struggled badly on day one, despite both Main Ridge openers combining for just four.

A third wicket stand of 166 runs did the damage, as Edward Aarons and Shaun Foster both put together massive totals before being dismissed in the 90s.

The day finished with Main Ridge in a fantastic position at 8/277.

On Moorooduc’s home turf, Baden Powell put in a decent performance with the bat to set a defendable target.

Most of Baden Powell’s top order were dismissed after making good starts, but none went on to make a big total.

Captain Craig Entwistle came in late and put together an innings of 51 from 109 balls, to help his side to 163 all out.

Robbie Lancaster was best performer with ball in hand, taking four wickets and bowling 11 maiden overs.

Moorooduc finished the day at 0/11.

A quick fire 68 from Simon Dart was the highlight of the day as Red Hill batted out the afternoon against Long Island.

Long Island will have to chase down 234 in the second innings.

DISTRICT

DELACOMBE Park will be lamenting their shaky start against Mt Martha, as they struggled to chase down an achievable target.

Mt Martha batted first to start the day, and lasted a little less than 66 overs. They didn’t impress in terms of keeping the run rate up, and finished up all out for a less than inspiring 159.

Dean Blight tore through the top order to claim five wickets.

With a good opportunity of a win ahead of them Delacombe Park finished the day at 3/57. With a little more than 100 runs still to get, they will have to ensure no further slip ups on day two.

At Belvedere Reserve, Carrum were disappointing in their first innings against Seaford Tigers.

John Mitchell’s opening knock of 56 was the highlight for Carrum, as they finished all out for 147.

Jack Brooking tore through the tail on his way to a five wicket haul.

The Tigers will start their run chase

on day two from 0/11.

Seaford had a good day away from home to Heatherhill, as a huge total of 94 from Ryan McQueen set them up for a total of 214.

McQueen was eventually dismissed

by Tyler Neal just 6 runs short of a ton.

Heatherhill had a big target to chase, and things started disastrously for them. Their total at the end of the day only made for pleasant viewing to Richie Benaud commentary enthusiasts. They will restart on day two at 2/22.

A good team performance from Rosebud saw them set a good total of 214 for Hastings to chase.

Things would have been even better for Rosebud had they not lost their last 4 wickets for just 11 runs.

Hastings ended the day at 1/7

SUB DISTRICT

RYE have suffered a disastrous start in their run chase against Frankston YCW at RJ Rowley Reserve.

The Stonecats were sent in to bat first, and Joseph Gott was their best batsman. He opened and scored a fantastic 72 not out. Tom Baron impressed by taking 6 wickets.

The Stonecats declared for 6/198, confident of doing some damage to Rye in the last 20 overs of the day.

Rye’s run chase got off to a dismal start, as the first three wickets fell for just six runs. Jarrod Saw opened and saw everyone around him fall cheaply.

He ended up at 11 not out, but will have to put on a lot more runs to get close to their target. Rye ended up at a miserable 5/20 at stumps.

At Balnarring Reserve, Boneo’s total of 166 will prove tricky to chase down for Balnarring.

Boneo were looking really dangerous at 0/72, before Balnarring kicked into gear to get things back on track.

Balnarring lost one wicket before close of play as they came in to bat for 10 overs. They will restart on 1/26.

Dromana look to have an easy win wrapped up, as their first day of their clash against Skye started well.

An unbelievable collapse of 9/35 did the damage for Skye as they opened the batting and struggled. Skye lost their last 5 wickets for just 1 run. They closed their innings with a run of 4/0.

Dromana batted 12 overs before the close of play and finished at 0/19.

Tyabb also suffered an extraordinary collapse as they took on Tootgarook at home.

The Yabbies lost 9/43, as they stumbled to a total of 99.

Nicholas Taranto top scored with a score of 34, but it may not prove enough.

Tootgarook lost an early wicket, but only need 67 more runs to chase down their target when play restarts on day two. They will have nine wickets in hand.

Carrum Downs had a bye.

PROVINCIAL

PEARCEDALE have been handed a lifeline in their two day clash against Flinders after a horror opening.

Pearcedale were slow scoring and ineffective, as they struggled to deal with Flinders’ bowling attack. They eventually were all out for 86 off 61

overs.

With an easy task ahead of them, Flinders completely capitulated away from home. After the completion of 18 overs, they were at 4/16, setting day two up for an interesting conclusion.

Kaine Smith finished with figures of 2/1 off his 9 overs, bowling an incredible 8 maiden overs.

A David Macfarlane Reserve, Peninsula OB came close to defeating Sorrento after just one day of play.

The Sharks won the toss and chose to bat first, but they would spend just 49 overs out in the middle.

Adam Gailitis’ 6 wickets saw Sorrento slip to a paltry score of 89 all out.

Old Boys came in and looked decent, with opener Dylan O’Malley top scoring with 42. Despite some good signs, their middle order collapsed with little impact. At 6/77 they should go on to win, but the contest is not over yet.

Another low scoring affair occurred at Greg Beck Oval as Baxter took on Mt Eliza.

Mt Eliza struggled badly, with only one batsmen registering a score higher than 10. They finished all out for 84.

Baxter looked far from convincing as they came in to bat, and ended the day at 4/49, still in a good position to win.

Langwarrin fared better against Mornington, recovering from 3/7 to end up all out for 144.

Mornington finished at 1/12 at stumps.

Lynn legend continues at Seaford SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie WILLIE Lynn and wife Liz have been involved with Seaford United since 1978 and have no plans to step aside soon.

Willie is in the 12th year of his second stint as president having previously completed 10 years in charge while Liz has had several stints on the committee and turned her hand to almost every volunteer job at the club.

“I’m the cleaner, the shopper and the washer upperer,” Liz said.

“I wash both the kits for the seniors and reserves, I cook for them after training on Thursday nights and I help run the bar.”

North Seaford Reserve became their home away from home just a few months after migrating from Scotland.

Willie was born in Stevenston in Ayrshire and Liz in Glasgow and they arrived in Melbourne in August 1977 and joined Seaford United the following year.

“That was the first year Seaford had a senior team and I’ve got a funny feeling that they won the Bayside League that year,” Willie said.

Guiding a club through the highs of promotion and the lows of relegation can be demanding but Willie Lynn seems to take it all in his stride.

“We joined the club at the start because of the social aspect and that’s one of the things we’ve always enjoyed.

“We won the cup and league in the same year – mind you that was a long time ago in fact I think we were in the old District Leagues – and that’s probably been the main highlight as far as results go.”

Over the years Lynn has watched some high-profile players wearing the Seaford strip perhaps none more so than Heidelberg United legend and former Socceroo Jim Tansey who he rates as the best defender he’s seen at North Seaford Reserve.

Other high-profile players include Iain Stirton, Billy Whiteside, Carl Gilder, Jimmy and Ray Bryden, Terry Wogan, Alex Marshall, Andy McKenna, Gordon Bentley, Stevie Irvine and Dave Greening.

“The best keeper was probably Jimmy Bryden who was a big boy and really commanded his area.

“In the early days we had a lad from Dundee called Duncan Fox and he was maybe the best midfielder and I’d have to say big Stirton was the best striker but Ray Bryden was another good player.”

The highest level Seaford has

reached in Victorian soccer is the old State League 3 and as its name suggests it was the third-highest tier of club competition in the state.

While most clubs aspire to play at the highest level Lynn says that from his experience there’s a price to pay.

“I think the hardest part is getting volunteers in to do various jobs around the place and it seems like it’s getting harder all the time.

“In my experience some of the easier times were when we were in the lower leagues because when we went into the higher leagues it just seemed harder to attract volunteers.

“I’m not sure why that is but maybe when you’re in the lower leagues you tend to get more of a social atmosphere and it’s a wee bit easier to get people involved.

“It seems to come in phases where you have a good group of people in-

volved one year then the following year they’re not involved and you’re struggling to get the help you need.”

But despite seasons when the presidency would have tested a lesser man the 70-year-old Scot can’t see himself walking away from the job.

“I think the real reason I’ve lasted so long is that no-one else wants the job because of all the work involved.

“To tell you the truth I’ve been retired now for 15 years and it gives me something to do.

“I don’t play golf and I don’t fish and if I wasn’t involved with the club I’d be sitting in front of the tele watching ‘Days Of Our Lives’ and I’m not into that at all.

“I’ve got no intentions of stepping down and as long as I’m upright I’ll keep going.”

Recent seasons have not been kind to Seaford with the senior team fin-

ishing bottom of State 2 South-East in 2017 and second bottom of State 3 South-East this year.

Next year Seaford will line up in State 4 South where derby clashes against Baxter and Chelsea will be eagerly anticipated and Lynn is confident that not only will the drop down the leagues be arrested but the club can look to regain lost ground.

“Looking back (at 2018) it wasn’t a really good season at all and I was a bit disappointed.

“We went through a couple of coaches and there was a fair bit of disruption but when wee Matty (Morris-Thomas) took over it seemed to improve a hell of a lot.

“We’ve already signed Mitch (Lander) for next season and there’s a couple of others on the way but I’m not telling you who they are just yet.

“I’ve got a bit of time for wee Matty

and he knows what it’s all about.

“We’d like to think that we can have a good year next year and move back up but once again the higher you go the harder it gets for presidents and committees.”

But Seaford’s onfield struggles are in stark contrast to the club’s strong participation levels with around 400 players in the senior, junior and women’s programs.

The club fielded “15 or 16” junior teams last year, five Bayside League teams, and under-12, under-14 and senior women’s teams.

“We’ve got well over 200 kids involved with the juniors and while you’d see that as important for the club’s future the fact is that as they get older it gets harder to hold onto them.

“They start to socialise, they get wee part-time jobs and they go to uni so there’s a lot of other things on their minds.

“And the ones that are really good and want to keep playing don’t tend to stay at Seaford but go to the NPL. “But basically the sport is really strong on the peninsula and you only have to look at the (player) numbers to see that it continues to grow.

“It doesn’t really matter how good you are because every single kid deserves the chance to play this beautiful game and our job is to make sure that there’s always a place for them.”

There’s been a major improvement to the infrastructure at North Seaford Reserve recently with the completion of new changerooms jointly funded by local council and state and federal governments.

The new facilities are symptomatic of the current relationship between Seaford United and Frankston council but it hasn’t always been so positive.

“In the 20 odd years I’ve been president there’s been some pretty bad times I can tell you but at the moment our relationship with the council is very good.

“At the last soccer liaison meeting with the council I brought up the issue of getting dugouts built and they said they were looking to do that so I’m very hopeful that something will be done soon.

“Overall I think the future’s looking good and irrespective of what level we are at our numbers are good both on the pitch and off.

“I’m not going to tell you how much money we’ve got in the bank but we’re comfortable financially.”

As comfortable as Willie and Liz Lynn are after 40 years’ service to the one club.

Frankston lifesavers rank among world’s best FRANKSTON Lifesaving Club had two teams compete on the worldstage when they lined up in the Lifesaving World Championships in Adelaide on Friday 16 November.

The two-week long championships had more than 7,000 lifesavers from 44 countries attend the event where one of the Frankston teams finished among the top 10 in the world for the Inflatable Rescue Boat (IRB) competition.

The Frankston boat driven by Marco Kelsall, crewed by Robert Basford and with patients Michael Jacobsen (Seaford LSC) and Paul Caddaye stayed in the running for the world finals in both the Men’s Rescue, involving one patient pick up, and the Mass Rescue, involving two patients pick up.

Despite the fierce competition and some nail-biting finishes, the Frankston team managed to claim seventh place in both of their events and were the highest placed Victorian male team at the world championships.

BMX riders land v-plates at state champs FRANKSTON BMX club members made their way to the Victorian State BMX Championships in Warrnambool on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 November.

With more than 400 competitors from across Australia competing in the premier event, the Frankston BMX riders still managed to bag two state number one championship titles.

On the opening day, the Frankston BMX club had riders compete for state championship glory in the sprocket class (seven and under age group), the cruiser class (wheels consisting of 24-inch) and in the retro class (pre-86’ bikes).

The Frankston BMX female riders led the way for the club with Kitty Cristiano finishing first in the 30-39 Women’s Cruiser division and Coby Stagg winning the 19-24 Women’s Cruiser championship title. Rebecca Koffel also landed in the top rankings of the 30-39 Women’s Cruiser event, finishing in fourth and claiming an illustrious v-plate (top eight finish in Victorian championships).

Tania Mundie (40-44 Women’s Cruiser) and Adam Glanville (40-49 Retro) also landed v-plates with second and fourth finishes in their respective events. Father and son riders, Darren and Kai Stevenson, also placed

fifth and eighth in the Retro 40-44 Men’s event and Junior Retro class.

The second and final day of racing saw every 20-inch BMX rider compete, with the professional men and women from across the country stepping out for the state championship honours. Victorian’s own Australian Elite Men’s champion of 2018, Brandon Tahiko, stepped out and gave race-goers the spectacle they all came to see.

Frankston BMX club couldn’t grasp any number one finishes for the day but had several competitors land top rankings to earn v-plates.

Marnie Williams (Women’s), Luke Cristiano (Pro Master Class) and Brendan Neivandt (Retro 30-39) all landed top-three finishes in their categories with Williams finishing in second and Cristiano and Neivandt claiming third place.

The other v-plate finishes included: Coby Stagg who finished eighth in the under-15 girls; Tania Mundie who finished eighth in the 40-44 Women; Amber Rossborough who finished seventh in the under-14 girls; Kane Lansdown who finished eighth in the under-9 boys; Tommy Foot who finished fifth in the under-10 boys; and Fergus Wiggins who finished fifth in the under-8 boys.

Warren in red-hot form with Rosemont

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON-based racehorse trainer Jason Warren is enjoying a winning run of late alongside Victorian thoroughbred farm, Rosemont Stud.

The pair combined to win two metropolitan races with two runners on Friday 30 November and Saturday 1 December in slashing style.

Warren, who has trained out of his private property Denistoun Park, Tuerong for the past seven years, saddled up Miss Toorak Flyer on the Friday night at Cranbourne where the mare made a winning return to the racetrack.

It was no ordinary return either from Miss Toorak Flyer who flew home over the 1000m sprinting trip to score a last-to-first victory and bring up her fourth win from nine career starts. She clocked the quickest overall time of the night with a time of 58.25, as well as recording the fastest 800m (44.50), 600m (34.10), 400m (22.82) and 200m (11.56) sectionals for the entire meeting.

Warren, who has 35 horses in work, said he was stoked with her return.

“I thought it was fantastic,” Warren said.

“The rail was out at Cranbourne that night, so it sometimes makes it a little hard to win from the back when the rails out like that. They did go hard and she was back in the run so I thought her effort was really good.

“I thought she was our best chance for the week and we did have four winners last week which is just ridiculous with how quiet our run was

before that – a lot of placings but just not the wins.”

The success continued onto the following day for Rosemont Stud and Jason Warren as their two-year-old Brooklyn Hustle made a sensational winning debut at Moonee Valley.

Despite having confidence in the two-year-old pre-race, Warren said he didn’t think it could win after missing the start and landing in what seemed to be an impossible position.

“Prior to the run I thought that she could be the real deal,” he said. “I was pretty certain that she was very good, I just didn’t know how good.”

“When she was slow away, I said to my partner ‘I don’t think we can win from here’. I went to the Valley sort of thinking we could win but I didn’t really expect her to be missing the start and doing that.”

Having missed the start, Brooklyn Hustle camped at the rear of the field

before unleashing a devastating turn of foot to reel in the leaders and being eased down before the winning post.

Not only was the daughter of Starspangledbanner’s victory impressive to the eye, but it was also favourable on the stopwatch with an overall time of 58.80 secs.

Brooklyn Hustle ran the equal quickest final 600 metres of the meeting (33.16 seconds), sharing that honour with four-year-old mare Car-

ibbean Pearl. Five-year-old gelding Invincible Al, a regular sectional star, was the only horse on the day to have a quicker final 800 metres.

“Times don’t lie and that’s the thing, she’s got the times on the board for how good her effort was,” Warren said.

“It’s exciting. There’s not many two-year-old’s this year that have gotten that far back and still won. It’s a pretty surreal sort of run.”

Brooklyn Hustle has now opened up as equal-favourite ($6.50) for the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday 23 February and will prepare for her next run in the Blue Diamond Prelude.

“She’s at Rosemont at the moment and will have 10 days in the paddock there and have 10 days on the water walker and then she’ll be back to us on the 24th of December to get ready for the prelude,” Warren said.

Warren said that Miss Toorak Flyer will now be heading to Sydney with stablemate Bel Sonic as they prepare for the Magic Millions racing carnival on the Gold Coast.

Warren said that Bel Sonic will head to the Magic Millions Classic at Wyong on Wednesday 12 December while Miss Toorak Flyer will target a race at either Canterbury on Friday 14 December or head to Randwick the following day.

YOUNG up-and-coming golfers have once again come to the fore in The Dunes Medal with Blake Collyer, 21 and Grace Kim, 17 claiming this year’s honours on Friday 30 November.

More than 160 competitors contested this year’s edition but it was the young guns Collyer and Kim who fired the best rounds in the club’s feature tournament.

Victorian golfer Blake Collyer became the first person to claim back-to-back victories in The Dunes Medal since its establishment in 2002. The Metropolitan member handed in four solid rounds of golf and managed to be the bestof-the-best among some top talent in this year’s tournament.

Collyer shot rounds of 72, 72, 67 and 71 (282) to win this year’s event ahead of Konrad Ciupek (287) and Lukas Michel (288). The win continued Collyer’s standout year which includes victories in the United States of America.

New South Wales golfer and 2018 Youth Olympics gold medallist Grace Kim took out the women’s competition after overcoming some early pressure from her playing partners. Kim got off to a slow start, shooting 78 in her opening round before hitting back with rounds of 72, 69 and 73 (292) to win the tournament.

Kim finished two shots ahead of Rose Zheng (294), with June Song (298) finishing in third.

Another stand-out performance was from
