New mayor for ‘positive change’ NEWLY elected Mornington Peninsula Shire Council mayor Cr Simon Brooks says he is honoured to have received the support of his fellow councillors. Brooks was appointed at last Tuesday’s (21 November) annual council meeting at Rosebud, along with deputy mayor Cr Antonella Celi. A second term councillor, Brooks first represented the Seawinds Ward from 2016 to 2020. In February this year, after losing the 2020 election, he was elected on a countback following the December 2022 resignation of Kerri McCafferty (“Brooks back in council on countback” The News 7/2/23). With a background in building and design, and five years as a councillor, Brooks brings a wealth of knowledge about the shire to the role. He said he is committed to driv-
ing “positive change”, particularly through a future-proofed peninsula that is agile and sustainable. “This is one of the highlights of my career, representing my home, friends, family, colleagues and the entire Mornington Peninsula community. I do not take this opportunity lightly and will not lose sight of my vision to continue improving the shire for current and future generations,” Brooks stated in a shire news release. The same news release quoted shire CEO John Baker as being “excited” to work with the new mayor and deputy and looked forward to “achieving great things in 2024 for our community”. “I would also like to extend warm thanks and congratulations to our outgoing mayor Cr [Steve] Holland and deputy mayor Cr [Debra] Mar. It has been a pleasure to work with them both over the past 12 months.”

Paid parking trial ‘fiasco’ before it begins MARY Iles, president of Flinders Community Association, says residents are angry at the “arrogance” of Mornington Peninsula Shire. Picture: Supplied
Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE paid parking trial about to start near Flinders pier has been called a fiasco and one that will endanger people who would rather walk down a narrow than pay to park. Flinders Community Association president Mary Iles said the free e-permit offer for ratepayers and residents had “difficult to follow requirements, the website is unstable, and the process is a fiasco”. “Many other issues have been raised with council to ensure a far simpler outcome. Even a sign which has already been installed at the Flinders pier is misleading,” . The FCA have for months been actively campaigning about the parking trial due to start on Friday 1 December. Iles said its members had written submissions and had numerous discussions with council officers. The scheme relies on peninsula ratepayers and residents registering their vehicles online and using the PayStay app to get the e-permit that exempts them from paying for parking (“Permit needed to avoid paid parking” The News 21/11/23). “Ratepayers and residents were only notified of the start of the online registration process via a social media post on the shire’s Facebook page on 15 November,” Iles said. “Many community members of various ages and demographics do not access social media and rely on
email or mail communication from council. Those that did try to register online found the process unwieldly and not user friendly. “The registration process relied on certain proofs of residency such as a rates or utility notice together with
proof of vehicle ownership to be uploaded. “In many cases this type of information is simply not available. For instance, where the full time partner of a ‘a ratepayer or resident’ does not appear on a rates or utility notice
but owns their own car. What kind of proof of residency does the shire require to enable the issue of a permit?” Iles said there had been no end user testing of the process while many residents had seen their permit applications “rejected, or [were] simply
unable to access the website or upload the relevant documentation required”. “Residents are angry at the arrogance of council which has not listened to many community concerns about implementing a pilot that is totally inappropriate for Flinders,” she said. “The proposed parking fees on visitors is a mean-spirited impost that will prohibit low-income families from visiting the area, who will instead gravitate to other areas of the peninsula where beach parking remains free. “The proposed parking fees will also impact local aquaculture businesses that operate from the Flinders pier and discriminate against those people that don’t use apps, where English is not their first language or don’t use a mobile phone. “It will have a direct impact on our small local economy and will push young families to park further away from the foreshore, exacerbating an already perilous situation where there is no safe pedestrian pathway that leads down from the monument to the Flinders pier precinct. “Mixing walkers, the elderly, children and prams with cars and trucks towing boats along the narrow road with a hairpin bend is very dangerous.”

History, you can’t go past the peninsula’s Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THE rich history of the Mornington Peninsula has captivated the imaginations of many of those who have delved, but it’s also behind a new wave of history-based tourism. The interest in the peninsula’s past adds another feather to its cap, joining the beaches and the rolling verdant pastures as a reason to visit. History teacher and Eerie Tours proprietor Nathaniel Buchanan said his passion for history led him to the quarantine station at Point Nepean. “When I learned all about the history of the quarantine station I was amazed – it’s got a colourful, tragic and interesting past that many people on the peninsula wouldn’t even know about, let alone people from further away,” he said. “I have spent many years leading historic tours in Europe, and then Port Arthur, so I understand the interest from tourists to visit and learn.” Buchanan, who has run tours at Ararat’s Aradale asylum for more than a decade, says his passion includes “opening up old buildings to the public”. He secured permission from Parks Victoria to run Eerie Tours at Point Nepean and is in his seventh week at the site. Visitors carry lanterns to light their way through the buildings at night and hear accounts of the many diseases that came into Port Phillip, killing hundreds of “inmates” at the quarantine station. Some of the tales
SORRENTO’S diverse history is explored by Russell Morris, above. Picture: Yanni The “dark” side of the Point Nepean Quarantine Station, left, lights up during the eerie historical tours conducted by Nathaniel Buchanan. Pictures: Supplied make COVID-19 sound like a picnic in the park. Buchanan weaves the stories with intrigue and suspense, sometimes leaving visitors wondering where facts become fiction. But it’s all in the name of education and, of course, entertainment. While visitors won’t necessarily experience any eerie sensations on the tour, Buchanan’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the site’s chequered past is something to behold. He says promoting public interest gives old buildings another chance to
be relevant. “The old quarantine station was a wasted asset, at risk of falling into disrepair, but now more people will see and appreciate it, and learn about it’s fascinating role in Australia’s history.” In Sorrento, former AFL player Russell Morris is also championing the history of the area. Morris, a Sorrento visitor for many years, started history walking tours with a less dark flavour after being “taken” by the sights and background of the scenic town.
“I just love the stories about the buildings, the stories about the people and the things that went on here – I really wanted other people to enjoy it,” he said. “I love being able to share that with visitors, to walk around with them and show them another side to Sorrento. “It took me a while to do the research for Sorrento Walks, and I’ve spoken at length to people who know the history, so I can give that insight and make it interesting.” Morris launched his tours in
October, coinciding with 220 years since the HMAS Calcutta sailed into Port Phillip and Lieutenant Governor David Collins set up camp. Among his cargo were 299 male convicts, 16 convicts’ wives, some children of convicts, and 50 Royal Marines and the civil staff. “I really couldn’t find anything like this when I had the idea of a tour, and I wanted to be able to showcase this wonderful area and its history,” he said. “There is so much more to Sorrento than people realise.”

Transparency backed, but ‘secret’ talks stay Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire sees part of its mission as “keeping [the public] up to date with what is happening across the shire in an open and direct way”, but councillors have decided against publishing summaries of their secret discussions, or briefings. Cr David Gill said the summaries would help the public understand what topics were being discussed before they came up for a decision on a council agenda. “This is about transparency. It’s about inclusiveness. It’s about bringing our community with us when we’re discussing things,” Gill said. Biefings were noted on agendas, but the details remained secret, and it could be up to six months before they came back to council for a decision. His move for transparency at the council’s 14 November public meeting was defeated, with Crs Despi O'Connor, Lisa Dixon, Sarah Race, Antonella Celi and the mayor Steve Holland voting against, and Gill being supported by Crs Susan Bissinger, Kate Roper and Simon Brooks. After Gill’s notice of motion was defeated, he said listening to the arguments against providing more information reminded him of the saying “there’s nothing to fear but fear itself”.
“Mushrooms. Fear of the unknown. Fear of people knowing the unknown,” he said. People reading council agendas which listed council briefings “have got a line, they don’t know what the heck it is, but they’re got a line that we’re discussing something. In secret”. “If you can’t put up a summary of what you’re discussing it’s definitely secret,” Gill said. “It’s just interesting how you can be a councillor representing your community, but don’t tell them. That’s how it reads, that’s how it looks. Don’t tell them what we’re discussing.” Before the motion was defeated, Cr Despi O’Connor said summarising councillor briefings with officers “will actually create fear, because there’s unknowns. How much of it will create anxiety in our community?” Briefing papers prepared by officers were often the start of thoughts they were pulling together. “There’s lots of different avenues they’re looking at going down. They’re getting more information [and] they’re going to come back to us another time,” O’Connor said. Councillors were sometimes briefed two or three times before being asked to make a decision during a public council meeting. “The summary is not always going to be clear to the public about what
the paper is about,” O’Connor said. Cr Sarah Race: “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. “I think transparency is really important, and I think the community likes to know. “But I think Cr O’Connor is right, a lot of what comes back to us when we make decisions around the council table is the actual information we make decisions on, not the prior ones we talk about in briefings. “I am also wary of what this might do within [sic] the hands of our local journalists … because they seem to have a different narrative of what happens at council meetings as well.” Cr Susan Bissinger was “totally for transparency ... I think all the information given to us should be given to the community as well”. Cr Kate Roper was also “all for transparency, anything that helps our community understand what we do and what we’re talking about”. Cr Antonella thought “transparency’s great” but questioned why officers should have to spend “extra time” on summaries”. “If the community’s interested, they can have a look at the agenda, they can have a look at the minutes, they can email a councillor, to find out what that briefing was all about.”
THE six flags flown outside offices of Mornington Peninsula Shire.
‘Dialogue’ terminated over flag MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has not provided details of who made the decision to fly the Pride flag outside its offices. It has been more than one month since the shire was asked for details by The News following readers’ complaints about costs and decisions connected to the flag being flown. The shire did not directly respond to questions about whether the flag would be flown permanently, who had decided to fly the flag, were councillors told and could other groups ask for their flag to be flown. However, following the publication of a letter - Help homeless, not flags (The News 14/11/23) - claiming one of the colours on the Pride flag supported paedophilia, the then mayor, Cr Steve Holland, stated: “That statement is vile, offensive and seriously defamatory, and I have no interest in engaging in any further dialogue with this publication.” The writer of the letter subsequently admitted the claim was an error and a clarification - Correction flagged - was published by The News
STEVE Holland on its Letters page (21/11/23). The News has since asked both the shire and Holland if he had sought legal advice on the alleged defamation and, if so, how much did it cost and would ratepayers be provided with that advice. Holland was also asked who had been “seriously” defamed. “Is the mayor stating that he will not ‘engage in any further dialogue’ with The News, or just on the subject of flags being flown by the shire?” Neither the shire or Holland have responded.

BUDGET BACKLASH
Reverse freeway budget cuts - MP LIBERAL MP for Nepean, Sam Groth has described the federal government’s decision to cut $75 million from Mornington Peninsula transport projects as being “bitterly disappointing and a kick in the guts” for motorists using the Mornington Peninsula Freeway”. The “blow” to southern peninsula residents means the cancellation of both the Jetty Road, Rosebud overpass and sound barriers on the freeway (“Budget cuts end travel plans” The News 21/11/23). Groth said the previous federal coalition government had committed money for both projects in 2019. “Locals have long called for a solution to the chronic congestion at the end of the Mornington Peninsula Freeway, which is at its worst during the summer peak,” Groth said. “Late last year the Victorian Liberals and Nationals announced a plan to deliver a $175 million upgrade of the Mornington Peninsula Freeway between Jetty Road and Boneo Road, Rosebud if elected at the November 2022 state election. “This year I wrote to federal Infrastructure Minister, Catherine King on 30 January and again on 10 July urging her support for federal funding to fix this dangerous intersection. “Investing in this important project would mean a quicker and safer commute for families right across the Mornington Peninsula. Vital funding that this community has requested.” Groth said that after the announcement of the $75m cut he had again written to King asking her “reverse this harsh funding cut as it goes against the

wishes of the community and this unjust decision shouldn’t go unopposed”. Groth said some residents had contacted him to voice their disapproval of the cut and asked, “why funding had been spent on interim measures at Jetty Road when an overpass was clearly needed and where has the funding been allocated to?” “I have also written to and strongly lobbied the state government in parliament for matching funding for a Jetty Road overpass and funding
for sound barriers on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway at Safety Beach, Dromana, McCrae and Rosebud,” he said. “Both the state and federal governments have failed to deliver on funding for these crucial infrastructure projects. “It is most unfortunate that Labor has dropped the ball on these vital projects and continues to ignore families on the Mornington Peninsula.” Keith Platt

‘Blatant disregard’ for peninsula By Zoe McKenzie* THE failure of the Victorian Labor government to address local infrastructure needs last week resulted in our loss of $300 million. The 90-day review, which took more than 200 days, saw two local projects dumped due to a lack of matching or completion contributions from the Andrews/Allan government: $225 million was lost to electrify the Baxter rail line, and $75 million cancelled for the Jetty Road, Rosebud overpass. Now, $100 million of the peninsula’s funding will be spent on a road project in Ballarat, in the infrastructure minister’s own backyard. Other funds that would have been spent here were redirected to the Geelong region. Again. It was a small but important relief that the safety improvements along the Nepean Highway in Mount Martha – fully funded by earlier Coalition budgets in Canberra - were saved after huge community support for the works which have been scheduled then deferred to take place in 2021, 2022 and 2023. The Jetty Road overpass is the most called-for upgrade on the Mornington Peninsula and it’s an insult to our community - who have pleaded with governments to complete this project for years. Back in 2019, the Coalition government budgeted $75 million for the overpass and noise mitigation works and, according to the Victorian government’s own documents, it has used part of this money to complete the first two stages and plan for the third stage. A business case has been prepared and submitted to the state government, not that it has shared it with anyone. This work will now be wasted.
In comparison to other outer metro and regional areas, we are underfunded. It always seems to play out that if benefits are due to flow to metropolitan areas, we are regional. If benefits flow to regional areas, more often than not, we find we are classed metropolitan. These cuts demonstrate a complete lack of understanding of local community needs and a disgusting disrespect for the peninsula. The Prime Minister Anthony Albanese had previously expressed his full support for the Frankston to Baxter rail upgrade and promised to fund it. In the lead up to the 2019 election Albanese, then shadow minister for infrastructure, stated “a Labor government would move quickly to deliver the muchneeded Frankston to Baxter rail upgrade”. But a commitment in writing means nothing to this prime minister, who last summer visited the peninsula in a helicopter. Perhaps to avoid Jetty Road. Last week’s cuts come on top of the $8 million dollars that was cut from the Centre for Coasts, Environment, and Climate at Point Nepean in the October 2022 federal budget. The centre will now go ahead, albeit in a scaled back form, thanks to the ongoing commitment of Melbourne and Monash universities and their researchers to the project. Back in 2022, the Committee for Mornington Peninsula found that our area paid more in taxes than regional areas yet received far less in terms of infrastructure support than traditional metropolitan or regional areas. A similar report by the Committee for Greater Frankston found the Geelong region will receives roughly 10 times as much infrastructure investment as the Mornington Peninsula on a per capita basis. I have raised our local needs persistently – by letter to the PM, premier and all relevant
ministers, stressing the particular attributes of our region - our dirt roads, septic tanks, gas tanks, internet dongles, a degrading hospital, and an outdated and mostly inaccessible public transport network. I have raised it in speeches to the parliament, on our national television broadcasters, and in the pages of this newspaper. And yet, the blatant disregard for our region persists. I often hear people say, “what do you expect from a Labor government, this area is too conservative for them to care”. But this analysis could not be further from the truth. Until last November, the state seats of Nepean and Hastings were among the most marginal seats within the grasp of the ALP. Hastings is now held by Labor MP Paul Mercurio - with the slimmest of margins. And yet, the Albanese government ripped $225 million which would have benefited the Hastings area - because of Andrews/Allan government’s refusal to upgrade the last part of the Metropolitan rail network, which remains diesel-fuelled and single track. Recent estimates suggest the Victorian government’s suburban rail loop will cost some $200 billion, and yet it will not provide a tiny fraction of that to improve the Stony Point line. This is even though the state has promised a renewable energy terminal to be built at Hastings which – if ever realised – will cost billions of dollars and create hundreds of jobs, putting even more pressure on the peninsula’s woeful public transport grid. Together with Nepean MP Sam Groth (Liberal) and Mornington MP Chris Crewther (Liberal), I will keep up the fight to get what our community needs and deserves. *Zoe McKenzie is the Liberal MP for Flinders

Law of the water BAD behaviour on the water was the target of an operation by Water Police on the Mornington Peninsula that saw 15 penalty notices issued on Saturday 18 November. Squad Senior Sergeant Lynden Blackley said the operation targeted water safety and compliance at several boat ramps. “As we head into warmer weather and the waterways get busier, our biggest focus is making sure boaties are prepared to return to the water by ensuring vessels are serviced and licenses are up to date,” he said. Officers conduct more than 120 breath tests, as well as licence checks and vessel checks at Patterson River, Rye, Safety Beach and Martha Cove boat ramps to ensure boat operators were carrying the mandatory safety equipment.

RSL has its first woman president
Licensed Plumber & Gasfitter
By Despi O’Connor* THE Mornington Returned and Services League (RSL) has its first female president in Meryn Cooper. Cooper joined the Women’s Royal Australian Navy in 1981 and was based at HMAS Cerberus, Crib Point for her new recruits’ course, proudly wearing her uniform. She completed her category training on the base and as a cook was then posted to HMAS Albatross, Nowra Hill, NSW home of the Fleet Air Arm. Eighteen months later Cooper was posted to HMAS Coonawarra, in Darwin. Prior to 1985, women were not able to go to sea, so for her four years of service Cooper was restricted to land duties. If she had her time over again, she wouldn't hesitate to sign up for the defence force and would also encourage anybody, not just women, to do the same. Cooper says it’s a rewarding experience, the training is great, and the friendships are forever. After leaving the Navy, Cooper had a continued willingness to serve her community and became a cadet instructor in Launceston, training young people (14-19 year olds) at TS Tamar – Naval Reserve Cadets. She later returned to Melbourne where she took up a civilian position as a chef back where it all started, at HMAS Cerberus for six years. Now semi-retired, Cooper joined the RSL five years ago to continue to give back to her community. She joined the committee after she was asked to get involved and soon after was approached to nominate for vice president. Only serving or ex-serving members of the defence force can nominate for the roles of president or vice president. Women make up a very small part of the RSL overall membership, but they bring a new range of skills to the table in what has traditionally been a male dominated organisation. Cooper will now serve for two years in the role as president, leading about 200 members at the Mornington club. She hopes that the current committee can continue to work together to improve veterans’ health and welfare by improving connections in the community and at the RSL.

We are thrilled to be the first venue for the National Gallery of Australia’s newest touring exhibition Know My Name: Australian Women Artists. We’ve paired this major touring exhibition with a suite of exhibitions featuring women artists, including local artist Kylie Stillman, multidisciplinary artist Natalya Hughes and a collection exhibition that celebrates the friendships between female donors and artists. Since the Countess Report on gender inequity in the Australian arts sector in 2016, institutions around the country have taken a closer look at their own collections, exhibition programs, awards and staffing and implemented ways to address gender imbalance in the sector. MPRG’s summer exhibitions and associated programming are an important part of our ongoing mission to elevate and showcase the work of Australian women artists. In 2021 MPRG produced a new collection publication Women Artists that highlights the work of female and female identifying artists in our collection.
More than 50,000 visited the Archibald Prize 2023 at MPRG, boosting the local economy. Of these, half were from metropolitan Melbourne and around 35 percent local Mornington Peninsula residents. Over 70% said the Archibald Prize influenced their decision to travel to the Mornington Peninsula and they spent money on food, drinks, shopping and entertainment in the local area. Of those opting to stay and explore the Peninsula further, the average length of stay was two nights. The feedback about the exhibition has been overwhelmingly positive and we thank our wonderful front of house staff and everyone who came along to see Australia’s most loved exhibition at MPRG.
See you at MPRG, soon. Danny Lacy MPRG Gallery Director

United in excellence
THIS part of the world has some of the state’s most beautiful beaches, but beauty can be deceiving, and we need to learn and understand what these beaches and the water are capable of, and where the dangers lie. Thankfully a wonderful partnership between United Energy and the Portsea Surf Life Saving Club means that some of our most vulnerable school aged children have a chance to learn about the water and contribute to the community. Part of the commitment from United Energy sees a subsided live-in camp coming up in early December for nearly 60 Frankston High Students who may not otherwise have had the opportunity to learn water safety – part paid for by UE, the experience will be teaching Safety Resuscitation Certificate, the Bronze Medallion, IRB boating and Search and Rescue skills that may one day save a life. Henry Kiss is the man who heads up Portsea’s Centre of Excellence, his fulltime position only possible via the direct funding of United Energy: “The assistance we get from United Energy is invaluable - we can only run these programs because of their generous support – and we can’t rely on volunteers for everything. We are also providing employment for young people on the peninsula, including 20 university students who assist with the beach programs, maintaining a top quality of service and providing pathways, not just for Portsea members”. Earlier this year Kiss also completed a second year of a very successful SLSC First aid course at the school, allowing students a glimpse at what is possible through the United Energy Program. Primary school children are also able to share in the United Energy generosity and subsidisation, with Hastings, Balnarring, St Mary’s, Somers, Tootgarook, Red Hill, and St Joseph’s all part of the school’s education program that will see nearly 800 children taught valuable lifesaving, and life, skills this summer.

The senior management and staff at United Energy see this support as being part of their local community, as explained by Scott Russell, General Manager for Strategy and Customer
29 November 2023
Group – “Our commitment to making the beaches safe and enjoyable in our own backyard underscores this partnership; we are living and working in it every day ourselves”.
“We are proud that the club’s Centre of Excellence education programs, which we directly support, provide surf and water safety education programs to schools and communities throughout our network.” Portsea is also looking to utilise this funding and support other clubs and schools in the area, upskilling smaller organisations by using the United Energy under-written Centre of Excellence as a peninsula wide resource for top level training practices. This allows instructors, water safety and lifeguards in the area to gain from United Energy’s contribution – and setting up a program like this is not cheap with equipment costing over $12,000, including boogie boards, rescue equipment, life jackets, branded rashies, instructor’s uniforms and more. Brett Croft, Portsea SLSC Vice President outlines how vital this contribution is, and aligns with the club’s values of safety, community service, leadership and teamwork: “We feel a community responsibility to create a level of change through education, and it is terrific that United Energy also feel the same way. The United Energy relationship is very important to the club and to the peninsula – allowing us to educate school aged kids on surf awareness, and the beauty of the beach as well as the dangers. Post the covid years we all endured, there has been a lack of opportunities for swimming lessons and so on, and being a coastal community, we know conditions can change in open with tidal movement, wind and waves. The United Energy sponsorship also allows us to instigate a ripple effect in the community – the students can educate other family and friends which is sometimes a challenge.” Kiss knows the real hidden dangers of not being aware of the obvious dangers: “I’m amazed at how many kids live on Peninsula that never go to the beach, and so the realisation, joy and excitement on kids’ faces on the beach is fantastic. Many never done this before, they are overcoming fear and can start to enjoy the water safely with us teaching them life skills and lifesaving skills, CPR, safe body boarding, how to wear a life jacket, how to rescue with everyday items and thousands of other tips and tricks.”
The expectation is that it will be a long hot summer ahead, with busy beaches and United Energy’s people are always looking to spread the message of safety and education and are proud that everyone taking part in their funded programs are developing skills that will stay with them for a lifetime. United Energy’s Scott Russell - “While we hope these skills never have to be used, they might one day save a life in our local waters. We understand the importance of beach safety to our customers and visitors to the Mornington Peninsula, which is why we are proud of our partnership with the Portsea Surf Life Saving Club”. This is the second summer of the program, it has already grown by over 50% this year with more schools wanting to get involved and Croft adds that from a club perspective it simply wouldn’t happen without UE: “The math’s is simple, United Energy’s support allows for the execution of this program, and it is a win-win. Together we achieve the goals of safety, education, and awareness, expanding our primary purpose of protecting the beach going public. Furthermore, we know that this sponsorship is more than just a valuable financial contribution, but it is a genuine emotional buy-in for where United Energy and their people work and operate. it is one of the most important relationships we have at the club”. Safety of community and staff is the number one priority at United Energy, which distributes power to homes and businesses across eastern and south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne, along with the Mornington Peninsula. So, whether it be schoolies visiting the peninsula, retiring octogenarians, school aged children or families from challenging or diverse backgrounds United Energy is delivering safer beaches and ensuring that more people more often get a chance to learn life skills and lifesaving skills that could make a marvellous difference one day. A genuine commitment to community safety. See more at www.unitedenergy.com.au/whatwe-do/community-partners/

Growing community spirit THERE is plenty of evidence, documented and anecdotal, that community gardens are beneficial to the environment, to the health and wellbeing of users, and can help reduce the impact of high cost of groceries while providing nutritious food. So, it’s no surprise that community gardens are increasing on the Mornington Peninsula, with a new one popping up in Balnarring and many established ones dotted around the peninsula. The Coolart Community Garden is now up and running in the space of a former herb garden, which was the original Luxton family’s vegetable garden that was overhauled in the mid-1980s. Spokesperson Julie Ebbot said the community was very proud of the garden, which was a welcome asset for many to enjoy. Membership of Coolart Community Garden is open to financial members of the Friends of Coolart.
Community gardens and kitchen gardens at community centres bring people together to grow fresh food, learn and share gardening skills, relax and make new friends around a sustainable and inviting community garden. They usually have a low annual membership fee, and some have individual garden plots available for lease. Many kitchen gardens support community cooking programs or food rescue services. There are kitchen gardens at Blairgowrie, Crib Point, Dromana, Mornington, Mount Martha and Rosebud, as well as community centre kitchen gardens at Rye, Seawinds, Mornington, Mount Eliza, Somerville and Wallara community houses. For more information on starting a community garden email Mornington Peninsula Shire’s community gardens coordinator Tara Guddat at: tara. guddat@mornpen.vic.gov.au Liz Bell

We all need a holiday every now and then, don’t we? Since its premiere in 1990, this beloved gardening series has steadfastly dug its toes into Australian soil – until tonight. After more than 30 years, it’s time to explore the wonders of a different country: our beautiful, biodiverse neighbour Indonesia. In this hour-long special, Costa Georgiadis embarks on an adventure in Sumatra and Jakarta, bringing along co-host Tammy Huynh (both pictured).

The dress code is fancy gowns and tuxedos for this new season premiere of the 11th Australian instalment of the hardworking Bachelor franchise. The tongue-in-cheek, schmaltzy Bridgerton-style voiceover for the promos merely hints at the cocktail of lowbrow fun to be had, with endearing host Osher Günsberg sporting a sophisticated silver do. The ritzy fashions and flirtations (and roses) are all for the new trio of Bachelors: Brazilian model and theology student Wesley Senna Cortes; NRL-player-turnedlumberjack Luke Bateman (pictured); and model, entrepreneur and environmentalist Ben Waddell.

Federal cuts to transport needs are no surprise The cancellation of the extension of Frankston to Baxter line is no surprise as the federal government has no infrastructure revenue to fork out (“Budget cuts end travel plans” The News 21/11/23). Governments in Australia are not as wealthy as they used to be, partly because most of our gold was sold by a former Liberal treasurer for $300 an ounce and the rest what is left is in the vaults at the Bank of England not in the Reserve Bank of Australia, which is a government bank. Victoria is in debt with a government not wanting to cut expenditure and government programs and will soon make a treaty with Aboriginals which will add to Victoria’s debt. The Kananook station car park is being built and funded by the federal government on City of Frankston land, which may be unconstitutional as the Australian Constitution does not recognise local government. If it is constitutional, Frankston Council should receive rates from the Commonwealth to help in the relief of ratepayers’ increasing rates bills. Russell Morse, Karingal
to happen. However, some work is being carried out at the Jetty Road roundabout and that’s not being paid for by the Liberals. The $340m promised for an upgrade of the Rosebud Hospital by Liberal Mathew Guy was never going to happen and is not programmed by the ALP anytime soon. What money was put into the road and rail upgrades in the years that the LNP was in power? I would suggest zip. The only time we see Zoe and Sam in the media, not to mention the opening of some much needed infrastructure, is in some glossy publication advising Labor what they should be doing or what the pair are opening or being patrons too. Perhaps the electorate should have stuck with Labor’s Chris Brayne [in Nepean], he had his electorate at heart. Thank you Chris for the refurbishment of our schools, the express bus and more efficient bus timetables. Thank you also for the many other tasks that were attended to in your time in office. I’m sure a hospital upgrade would have been on your agenda. John Cain, McCrae
Promises, promises
Carbon capture hoax
I’ve just had an unwanted LNP propaganda rag shoved into my mailbox. Geez, they go on with a load of tripe. [Flinders MP] Zoe [McKenzie] and [Nepean MP] Sam [Groth] are still banging on about promises that a desperate LNP made and couldn’t keep at election times and [I believe] had no intention of fulfilling. That’s the way the LNP works, promise you everything and give nothing and before you get it they’ll put a tax on it. Zoe and Sam, God luv ‘em, are bringing out the old chestnuts of the Jetty Road [Rosebud] overpass, $75 million promised by [former Flinders MP] Greg Hunt that was never going
The Albanese government has shown it supports fossil fuel donors over our environment by recently passing the Sea Dumping Bill 2023 in the Senate. The Bill will allow Santos, Woodside, ExxonMobil and other gas companies to pipe their carbon dioxide (CO2) under the seabed for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The Bill will also allow Japan, South Korea and other countries to transport CO2 waste to Australia to be injected into old oil and gas reservoirs. Japan wants to exploit the 33 billion tonnes of brown coal in the Latrobe Valley for hydrogen exports and, by coincidence, Latrobe City Coun-
cil recently voted to send its mayor and CEO to Japan to advocate for hydrogen from coal. But the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) project cannot proceed if the CO2 waste can’t be safely transported and stored via CCS. CarbonNet is part of the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions and seeks to partner with the HESC to transport CO2 waste under Bass Strait. Could CarbonNet receive a final investment decision from the Victorian government in the near future? With the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) being held in Dubai from 30 November, it will be interesting to see how CCS is promoted as a decarbonisation solution. Will our elected parliamentarians be attending COP28 to represent their constituents or their fossil fuel friends? Dale Stohr, Crib Point
Religious views Too bad, so sad: The Commonwealth, Section 116, shall not make any law for establishing any religion, or for imposing any religious observance, or for prohibiting the free exercise of any religion, and no religious test shall be required as a qualification for any office or public trust under the Commonwealth. Australia is not a Christian nation, by definition it is a secular nation. If we want to be a Christian nation maybe we should start reading and applying the good parts of the Bible, and therein lies the real hypocrisy of the Christian values many proclaim are the foundation of this country. Actually, a Christian caliphate would not be much better than an ISIS caliphate, which is documented in history by Christian actions of the past and the alt-right Christians of today. The Bible in many cases is much worse than the Koran in its teachings. I have spent some time on this. Many alt-right white supremacist groups base their manifestos on Christianity and the bible, KKK for example. Prayer? OK with me so long as all prayers are offered. Rotate them through the religions, there are over 4000 of them, same with pastors in schools.
We should celebrate non-Christian sacred holidays in the same manner as our biased celebration of Christian holidays and give time off and have sales. I’m for this one. But in lieu of that, maybe we should ban Christian festivals and Christmas and Easter should be abandoned and the Easter and Christmas holidays should be scrapped without being replaced, which will add to Australia’s productivity. Australia is supposedly a democracy, don’t go trying to force Christianity down my throat. The Christian inquisitions did not work in the past and will not work today. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach
Give us the break What a pleasant surprise to view letters on various subjects to find and congratulate, especially one clever, thoughtful outlook on how some of the “woke” factor elements, such as abnormally bad manners, ugly shouting, wanting to obliterate the word Christ as the spiritual/humanity of Christ’s human birth and redemption of the human race actually took place (“Christian approach” Letters 14/11/23). A few people do not want The Lord’s Prayer to be said before our political gatherings. However, voters have a personal obligation to find out how the candidates line up on their voting intentions. It is very important that we don’t put our country, and its future voters in jeopardy, by such foolhardy voting. We have done very well using the present constitution. As for Judeo/Christian religious worship in the manner for which it was successfully put into effect and a break to think about it, most people have always enjoyed the break, whether for religious or personal interests. The extra payment now given to every worker will be replaced by a few very important, individual type staff (as still must exist, and they will as people always need medical attention 365 days a year) with other such important industries such as farming, food production and care, but the rest will go into an ordinary working day.

‘Healing Water’ link to creek THE Western Port Biosphere Foundation and the Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association have completed the first stage of a Healing Water Country project to create a biolink from wetlands to the Warringine Creek at Hastings. Planning for the project started in 2021 to restore the natural drainage between the wetlands and the creek, creating a “functioning habitat cor-
ridor” from fragmented bushland. ExxonMobil contributed towards the project, which also involved Mornington Peninsula Shire’s natural systems team. A smoking ceremony by Uncle Alvin Rajkovic and signs featuring work by Willum Warrain artist Sammy Trist marked the completion of the Healing Water Country’s first stage.
TEAM members behind the Healing Water Country biolink project include, from left, Elina Kyriacou and Lucy Kyriacou (Western Port Biosphere Foundation), Amanda Santa-Maria (ExxonMobil), Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association executive officer Peter Aldenhoven, ExxonMobil Long Island Point fractionation plant manager Andrew Cooke, biosphere foundation CEO Mel Barker, Cam Walls, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and Uncle Alvin Rajkovic.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Frankston school – Lecture by Mr Chas. Long Compiled by Cameron McCullough ON Friday last in the school grounds the pupils were entertained to a lecture by Mr. Chas. Long, M.A. on “The Early Discoveries in Port Phillip Bay”. A large number of parents and friends accepted Mr. Jenning’s invitation, amongst whom were included the following old pioneers, Messrs. Tom. McComb (oldest resident), Joseph McComb, David Kelly and Miss Carr; younger residents noticed were Mr. and Mrs. Evans, jnr., Mr., Mrs. and Miss Jennings, Mesdame’s, Amor, Legge, Bradbury and Stanton and Messrs. Evans, senr., and Lind (ex-president of the A.N.A.) Mr. Jennings, in introducing Mr. Long, said that he was very pleased to have that gentleman present, and that the scholars must feel proud to know that Mr. Long made up their school papers, and was going to tell them about the pioneers of their own country. Mr. Long, who was received with cheers, prefaced his address by informing the children that he prepared the school papers, and hoped that the 6th and 8th grades found things to their liking. He took the opportunity of telling them that 10 marks out of 20 would pass them, instead of 12 out of 20 as marked on the paper. Mr. Long, whose address was mainly for the scholars, but was listened to most appreciatively by everyone present, took his hearers back to 1788, the year of the landing of the first white people in New South Wales (Sydney), when nothing was known about
Victoria, through the vista of years to 1836, when the governor of New South Wales sent Lonsdale to lay out Melbourne, which was founded the year before. Bass, who came from Sydney to Western Port in 1798, Grant and Murray his first mate, Bowen, who on March 9, 1802, found the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, which was named after the first governor of New South Wales; Flinders; who arrived six weeks after Bowen had left, and was of great assistance in charting Port Phillip Bay, and who stopped right opposite the present site of Frankston, and drew water supplies from what is now known as Kananook creek, were some of the earlier historical names touched on by the speaker. William Buckley, the first white settler in Victoria, and his adventures with the aborigines, proved a very popular personage with the children, later Hamilton Hume and Capt. Hovell, who took the first expedition across Victoria, and still later Henty, Batman and Fawkner, who came from Van Dieman’s Land and founded the first settlements in Victoria in 1835, were pioneers to whose pluck and indomitable energy Victoria owes her birth. At the conclusion Mr. Jennings thanked Mr. Long most heartily, and called for an acclamatory vote of thanks which was given with great zest. Several of those present were asked by Mr. Jennings to say a few words, and Messrs. Lind, J.R., McComb and Evans, senr., addressed a few appreciative remarks, Mr. Evan’s reference to a peach episode of his youthful days causing great merriment.
*** MR. and Mrs. P. S. McGovern, accompanied by Mrs. Jacobs, left on Monday last for a fortnight’s motor trip through Gippsland. *** MRS. R. L. N. Utber, accompanied by her sister, Mrs Robertson, is spending a holiday at Olinda. *** THE removal of the fence at the Frankston railway subway and the widening of Young street, which work was undertaken this week, represents the result of persistent agitation by the Frankston Progress Association. The scheme for improving this important thoroughfare was formulated by the shire engineer, Lieut.– Colonel Lazarus, who explained the position to the Railway Commissioners on the occasion of their last visit to Frankston several months ago. It is gratifying to know that this work will be accomplished before the heavy holiday traffic sets in. *** ON Wednesday last little Roy Bentley, aged 6, who is spending a holiday with his parents in Mornington road, had quite an adventurous time, during the course of which he gave his mother a most anxious time. It appears that Roy was playing on the beach, but at about 3 o’clock had disappeared. Search was made, but, without result, and later in the evening the police were notified, and the fire-bell rung. The wanderer was discovered between 6 and half-past by two local Italian fishermen on the beach, about 3 miles from home, and restored to

The Visitors is profound and moving. It looks back on the most significant day in Australian history and the life-altering decisions the Indigenous custodians of the land had to make. The Peasant Prince is the inspiring life story of dance sensation Li Cunxin adapted for children. It tells of his journey from poverty in rural China to international superstardom. Guards at the Taj explores how far friendship can be stretched when two lifelong friends are ordered to do the unthinkable. This bloodthirsty black comedy is certainly thought-provoking. The Tap Pack is a sensational celebration of songs from the legendary Rat Pack to modern day classic crooners punctuated by tap dancing feet and a percussive beat. You Are a Doughnut is a hilarious exploration of the human digestive system from poop puppets to performance poetry. Song, dance and clowning around. Bon Appetit is a delicious, messy foodthemed circus the whole family will love. Aerials, acrobatics, musical comedy and juggling. Captivating silliness abounds. Simply Brill “The Teens Who Stole Rock ‘N Roll” pays tribute to the life changing impact of 60s rock. Three stellar singers and a rocking 5-piece band bring this story to life. A Very Big Band Christmas features sublime harmonies, a booming big band and celebratory Christmas tunes even The Grinch would love. A fabulous way to round out the season. Treat yourself! Tickets are available at thefac.com.au or by calling 03 9784 1060.

the fold by Mr. Osborne. *** Frankston Police Court On Tuesday last, before Messrs. Grant (chairman), and Brown, J’s.P., Allan Edward Cooper was charged on two counts: (1) offensive behaviour on 25th inst., (2) negligently driving a motor car, on the same date. Senior–Constable Wilson, who prosecuted, said the defendant’s solicitor had asked for an adjournment until December 11, to which he had no objection.– Granted.. The case against Ernest George McMullen, charged with negligently driving a motor car on October 10, was, owing to Senior–Constable Culhane not being able to attend, adjourned for eight weeks. THREATENING WORDS IN A PUBLIC PLACE William Albert Couch, motor driver, East Melbourne, was charged with that he did on 24th inst., use threatening words in a public place. Defendant, who was undefended, pleaded not guilty. Arthur William Edwards, painter, of Bentleigh, gave evidence to the effect that on 24th inst., at about 10.15pm, he was proceeding in a motor car to Rosebud, accompanied by his wife and friends. After leaving Mordialloc, two men on a motor bike hailed him, saying they were special police and ordered him to stop. Later the defendant stood in the centre of the road with extended arms, and repeated the order. On arrival at Frankston, he took his wife and friends into a shop for refreshments. Defendant followed him and used
filthy language. The police were sent for and accused given in charge. Elsie Hallpike and Stephen Vince Hallpike corroborated the evidence given by complainant. Mounted–Constable Graham deposed that he arrested the accused on the night of the 24th inst., on complaint made by Mr. Edwards. Accused, giving evidence on oath, stated that in company with a friend, while passing through Mordialloc he almost run into complainant’s motor car, which had no tail light. He called out to him and tried to stop him on three different occasions, but complainant took no notice. He followed the car to Frankston with the idea of informing the police, as he considered a car having no tail light a danger. On arrival at Frankston, he looked for the police, but was given in charge by the complainant. Cross-examined, accused said that his only reason for trying to stop the complainant was to inform him that his tail light was out. He did not remember using the language complained of, and was not drunk, nor did he say he was a “special”. Howard Reg. Dewhurst, linesman, Oakleigh, corroborated evidence given by accused. Cross-examined, he said that he thought accused was doing the complainant a kindness by attempting to draw attention to the state of the tail light. Accused was fined 60/- or in default 14 days, and 40/- costs. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 28 & 30 Nov 1923

KNOW MY NAME: AUSTRALIAN WOMEN ARTISTS Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery will be bursting with summer colour with four extraordinary exhibitions, radiating the work of women artists from across Australia. Know My Name: Australian Women Artists is a National Gallery touring exhibition which will make its first stop in Mornington on its two-year tour. The exhibition features more than 60 works by female artists including Margaret Preston, Janet-Cumbrae Stewart and Emily Kam Kngwarray, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience the art and stories and get to know some of the country’s most influential women artists. Brisbane-based artist Natalya Hughes recreates The Interior - an immersive installation at MPRG, transforming the space and combining sculptural seating, richly patterned soft furnishings, and uncanny oject’de at, nestled around a hand-painted mural. Visitors will be invited to explore the space, while subconsciously exploring the role of women and their historical absence from positions of power through the part-professional part-domestic setting. Known for her incredible book sculptures and woodcarvings, local artist Kylie Stillman’s latest exhibition Glimmer Warning draws from her love of small tools such as scalpel blades, jigsaws, drills and sewing materials to alter objects and create negative spaces that depict ‘signs of lift’. In this new exhibition, Stillman’s site specific wall-based artwork features alongside intricate works on paper and sculptures. Crossing Paths: Women supporting women in the MPRG Collection explores the connections between four women artists in the MPRG Collection; Guelda Pyke, Nancy Grant, Dorothy
Braund and Barbara Brash. Know My Name, Natalya Hughes - The Interior, Kylie Stillman – Glimmer Warning and Crossing Paths will be on display at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery from 25 November 2023 until 18 February 2024. Entry is free.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
The Colossal Car Stereo Conflict By Stuart McCullough THERE was no escape. Once the call went out, seven people who, under ordinary circumstances, kept a respectful if not healthy distance from one another, would be required to submit themselves to the exquisite agony and confined space that is the family car. Truth be told, it wasn’t so much a car as it was a van. That’s how it goes with larger-than-average families. For most of my childhood, we had a Toyota ‘Dante Inferno’ that came with a sign above the sliding door that read, ‘Abandon all hope, ye who enter here’. Each of us had an assigned seat. There were lots of things to dislike about a family car trip. Cramming parents and children into a metal box is not a natural state of being. To be squashed up against a sibling is an invitation to conflict. Suffice to say, that car saw more than its fair share of bickering, petty arguments, seatbelt pulling and pinching over the years. We kids were often almost as bad. But more challenging than being lumped together for an extended period of time was the fact of music. At the best of times, music is a tricky business. Back before everyone was permanently head-phoned (so to speak) and listening to the music of their choice, families had to select and listen to the same music. When it comes to communal listening, there are several approaches. There’s the autocrat, who determines what music everyone else will be listening to. However, to be the autocrat, you either need to be driving the
car (because the act of driving comes with a range of other special powers such as determining when windows are open and whether or not you’ll drive through or past your preferred fast food vendor) or in close proximity to the stereo. Basically, it means you have to be an adult. There’s the ‘take turns’ model. To be honest, this requires a good deal of bravery. By giving everyone in the car their shot, you may well get a burst of something from the ‘Baby Shark’ extended Universe. Granted, not everything chosen by a member of your family would be drawn from that particular hellscape, but it was a real risk. Kids, little kids especially, have a tendency to latch onto something and flog it to death until you begin to question why it is that God
cursed you with ears. To this day, I know the lyrics to a lot of tunes from the Sesame Street songbook. Autocrats are one thing, and there’s a certain perilous democracy inherent in the ‘take turns’ model, but best practice is also the most difficult to pull off. I speak, of consensus. Getting seven people to agree on anything is an achievement worthy of a prize. Spirited debates were almost always guaranteed to descend into conflict. Service stations used to stock emergency cassettes. The range was confined to the world’s greatest musical artists – The Little River Band, Queen and Chad Morgan (in no particular order). These were available to either break deadlocks where consensus proved elusive or, alternatively,
provide relief from the Wiggles. I don’t recall my parents ever resorting to Chad Morgan, although they may well have threatened it. For a consensus, there was one cassette and one band that brought us together. That band was ‘The Beatles’ and the album ‘The Beatles Ballads’. It may have come with a magazine. The cassette appeared in the mideighties and featured a strangely stylised drawing of the band on the front cover. It was, apparently, considered as the cover for the ‘White’ album but was rejected in favour of, well, almost nothing. Unlike the ‘Red’ or ‘Blue’ albums, the song selection seemed largely random, plucking tunes from various points of the Beatles’ career, then presenting them in an order that may well have been drawn from a hat.
The collection kicks off with ‘Yesterday’, a song that might safely be described as ‘well-known’. It’s followed by ‘Norwegian Wood’ and then, somewhat puzzlingly, ‘Do You Want to Know a Secret?’ ‘All My Loving’ sat next to ‘Hey Jude’. In retrospect, it was jarring, but at the time, I didn’t know any better. The songs were, of course, mesmerising. It was impossible not be struck by how incredible this music was. It set a standard. It was no accident that in primary school, I drew a picture of Paul McCartney on my exercise book. That tape remained a fixture on the dashboard of our Toyota ‘Dante Inferno’ right up until the sun got hold of it and it really became a fixture after it fused with the plastic. Two weeks ago, I had a birthday. And on that day, The Beatles released a new song, ‘Now and Then’. It would probably be quite at home on side B of ‘The Beatles Ballads’. I know there’s some computer magic involved and it’s not the same as something recorded on the floor of Abbey Road, but it’s wonderful to hear those people and that voice again. Even now, there’s still fierce competition for the control of the stereo, but I’ll slip on ‘Now and Then’ when the kids aren’t looking. And even if it feels like a long and winding road and those in the back seat are imploring me to let it be, I will smile and think of ‘The Beatles Ballads’. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Luke Kranzbuhler bowled well for Sorrento. He took 3/27 from his 11 overs, including the important wicket of opener Sam Prosser. Langwarrin ended the day on 6/80 after a long rain delay. Old Peninsula and Red Hill had better luck with the weather at Peninsula Grammar Oval last weekend. The Pirates batted for 78 overs, and ended up all out for 156. Skipper Justin Grant top scored for Old Peninsula with a knock of 65 from 182. Red Hill bowler Brent Martin took 4/46 from 34 overs.

Myatt puts opponents on notice SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie KEEGAN Myatt would like nothing better than to strike fear into the heart of opposition defenders next season. Baxter’s 20-year-old left winger has held his own debrief of season 2023 and is his biggest critic. “I didn’t have a great season,” he said. “I didn’t do terrible but I didn’t have as good a season as I wanted because I aimed to score at least 18 goals and maybe get 15 assists but only scored 12 and assisted a few but not enough. “When I was younger football was my life but now I’m getting lazy, getting distracted and I need to do something about that. “I need to prove myself because I came to Baxter with all this hype but I underperformed and definitely feel that I could have done a lot better.” The Myatt family is synonymous with Doveton soccer club as Keegan’s grandfather was a founding member and his father is team manager. Unsurprisingly that was where Keegan Myatt’s football story started when he was just four years old. Current Doveton president Daniel McMinimee coached Myatt as a junior and his close friendship with McMinimee’s son Brodie has endured. “Brodie’s been my best mate just about since we were born,” Myatt said. “We grew up together and shared the same soccer journey.” When Myatt was 11 the junior boys NPL program started and he made the switch to the under-12s at Serbianbacked Springvale White Eagles. “Being non-Serbian in a team full of Serbians was a bit weird at the start and it took me ages to get going but it turned out really good in fact I reckon going to White Eagles was one of the best decisions I ever made. “I improved so much there and as a 13-year-old I was getting picked for the (under) 14s then the year after I jumped up to the 15s and played some 18s games and in the 20s as well.” At White Eagles Myatt came into contact with Nebojsa Vukosavljevic who was coaching the under-14s and he left a lasting impression. “He picked me for the 14s and he was unreal, I mean scary as. “He’d scream and yell but it was always done out of love and always realistic. “He could see the ability and wanted to bring it out.”

Myatt didn’t go unnoticed. He was invited to join Victoria’s Talented Player Program eventually winning selection in the Victorian metro under-14s to contest the national championships at Coffs Harbour. “I honestly never thought I’d make it but other players started dropping out and I found myself in the last 30 then suddenly I was in the last 20 and I started thinking ‘geez, I’m a chance here’.” Vic metro coach Jasper Kristensen played Myatt on the wing throughout the nationals and the youngster excelled in a team that won the title by beating Northern NSW. “At the end of the championships someone came up to me and asked me to point out my dad. “It was a guy from Melbourne City so I ended up going there and playing in their NPL under-18s. “My entire family are diehard Manchester City fans so going to Melbourne City (owned by the City Football Group) was a bit of a dream
come true.” It didn’t long though for that dream to be shattered. “It was so hard, so really hard. “I had to leave school an hour early three days a week to get to Latrobe Uni for 4.30. “I was getting a bus from school to Berwick train station then a train to Caulfield where my dad was working and he’d drive me to Bundoora. “To make it worse they were playing me left back and I’m a full-on winger. “I couldn’t defend and I was looking stupid. “It was hard for my dad watching what was going on. “One time I got all my family there to watch me play – I think it was against Bulleen – and played about 30 minutes then ran the line for the whole of the second half.” Myatt returned to White Eagles the following season and played in the under-18s also making two appearances in the under-20s. In 2019 he returned to his own age

group when playing for the under-16s at Langwarrin where he met current Baxter coach Stephen Fisher. When Fisher joined Doveton now in NPL3 Myatt wasn’t far behind and it was shortly after Fisher was appointed to the senior coaching role at Baxter late last year that Myatt chose to drop down from NPL3 to State 4 level. It was a long-time friendship that swayed the youngster into joining. “When he got Brodie (McMinimee) down there he probably gave him a nudge to try and get me down.” But it will take more than a nudge to ensure that Myatt remains at Baxter. “If all the boys stay and we have a decent team then I’ll stay at Baxter,” Myatt said. There’s talk about the club’s recruits from Noble Park United having rejoined their former club while Izaak Baar, Brodie Jones, Noah Green and Jack Elliott could add to the departure list. If that happens it will force Fisher to oversee a second major squad makeover in as many seasons. “Brodie’s only 20 but he’s stopped playing and Izaak’s one of the original Baxter boys that I got close to. “He’s such a character and such a competitor – if he’s involved in a 50/50 I get scared for the other guy! “Jack’s undecided and Noah’s moved to the city. “Noah’s our rock mate – he does all the hard yards and he’s an absolute workhorse.” Green won Baxter’s best and fairest and players’ player awards this year so losing players of such quality would be a major blow. If Myatt remains then winning the league is his number one team target. On a personal level he is hellbent

on improving his finishing. “I can’t keep missing so many opportunities. “I’m talking about having the ball squared to me and my first touch taking it on an angle instead of setting me up to shoot. “I want to score more goals and I want to be a threat so that when I get the ball on the wing the opposition is like ‘oh no, what’s he going to do now?’ “I need to be more dangerous, more clinical in front of goal.” While that’s an ominous sign for any right-sided defenders confronting Myatt next season they can’t say they haven’t been warned. In State 2 news long-serving Skye United goalkeeper Jonathan Crook has decided to step away from senior football. “I’ve thought about it after other seasons but this time it just seemed right,” Crook said. The big Kiwi keeper joined Skye from Matamata Swifts in 2016 and has been a mainstay ever since. Skye gaffer Phil McGuinness took the news on the chin and paid tribute to the stalwart. “He’s the most dedicated player I've ever known so for him to say he wasn't playing next season he's obviously thought about it a lot,” McGuinness said. “I thought it would be very unfair of me to try and persuade him but he’s a massive loss. “Jono’s probably been Skye’s greatest ever player. “I know that’s a big call but that’s my opinion.” In other news next year’s Wallace Cup will once more be hosted by Langwarrin at its Lawton Park complex. The annual charity tournament will take place on Saturday 20 January. The event commemorates the life of local soccer icon Stephen William Wallace who was 54 years old when he died on 19 July 2011 and was a former Langwarrin player, coach, president, life member, club council representative and Bayside League referee. This will be the 11th staging of the Wallace Cup and previous winners are Casey Comets 2013; Mornington 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018; Moreland Zebras 2019; Langwarrin 2020, 2021 and 2022.
