Turning to turtles MONEY raised at Rosebud Secondary College’s World Environment Day will help the school’s sustainability group, Planet Pals, go to an education camp in Queensland where they will learn about turtle conservation and native plant management.

The college’s annual environment event is designed to raise environmental awareness.

Year 7s and students from Planet Pals made products to sell at stalls.

There were interactive activities including games, two alpacas and a petting farm.

Eastbourne Primary School’s grade 6 cohort joined the event and had lots of fun buying, tasting and trying environmentally friendly products, while learning about the environment and the importance of protecting it.

Items for sale included food, cupcakes, jewellery, Smencils (scented pencils), water bottles, chocolate, lollies, bags and other accessories.

Students from every year level helped the event run smoothly and planning has already started for next year.

Council SPA inquiry call

By Mike Hast FIVE of the shire’s 11 councillors have called on Local Government Minister Jeanette Powell to investigate the approval process of the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre.

The move is the latest attempt by the five to stop the multi-million dollar centre proposed for the foreshore at

Rosebud on the carnival and memorial hall sites.

The council has made three major decisions about SPA since last November with the voting going 6-5.

But on 18 June, with pro-foreshore pool councillors Frank Martin, Bill Goodrem and Antonella Celi in Canberra at the National General Assembly of Local Government, the anti-

foreshore councillors pulled a surprise move during urgent business.

The “ambush� saw the motion to ask for an investigation approved 5-3.

Last Friday 22 June, the council sent a letter to Ms Powell “requesting the minister consider in detail, and confirm the minister’s approval of, the financial impact, location, geological issues, community consultation program

and council’s approval process for the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre�.

In the letter, the council told Ms Powell the shire had debt of $38 million and SPA would add a further $29 million. “The delivery and timing of many important council services and infrastructure commitments can be expected to be significantly affected should

this single major project proceed,� the letter stated.

On Tuesday, the minister’s spokesman, Greg Charter, said the letter would take some days to work through the system.

At the council meeting, two other motions were passed because the antiforeshore councillors had the numbers.

Open to suggestions: Draft plans are on exhibition for the use of Police Point Shire Park at Point Nepean. The shire’s land also contains several houses and provides access to the beach. Picture: Keith Platt

Park plan open for comment PLANS for Police Point Shire Park at Portsea have been released for public comment.

The draft plan being exhibited by Mornington Peninsula Shire covers the principal features of the park, its history and outlines changes “for improving visitor facilities”.

The plans recommends using existing houses for respite or holiday accommodation, a community house with a small cafe and art gallery and providing a place to live for artistsin-residence.

There is land earmarked for a communal produce garden to be used by house residents, garden club and community.

The draft plan also suggests new fences, walking tracks, picnic and barbecue area.

The 17.5-hectare park adjoins Point Nepean National Park and has been excised from the main park’s quarantine station precinct. It is managed by the shire and not Parks Victoria.

The park was added to the National Heritage List in 2006 and is also included in heritage listings at a state and local level.

Cr Tim Rodgers said the draft plan included “actions for

further protecting and preserving natural and cultural values”.

“Police Point Shire Park is a special place, and culturally significant for its history,” he said in a shire news release.

“It was the site of the police barracks and the gatekeeper’s quarters of the Point Nepean quarantine station from the 1850s through to the 1950s. In the early 20th century, four additional quarantine station staff houses were built.

“From the 1950s the Police Point houses were occupied by the army for some 50 years before the park was established in 2004.”

Cr Rodgers said the park had “great potential as a very special place for recreation combined with appreciation of its long history, including the indigenous history of the area”.

“I’d encourage people who are interested in this area to review the draft plan and send in their views and comments.”

The plan is available on the shire’s website in the ‘Have your say’ section (draft plans and policies) and printed copies can be viewed at the shire offices in Mornington, Rosebud and Hastings.

The plan is open for comment until Monday 30 July.

Numbers cut power costs SMALL businesses and households are being urged to join Energy United so it can make a deal on reducing power costs.

The company says it can negotiate saving on gas and electricity by increasing its buying power with the backing of 500 businesses and 1000 households.

Under the “pilot” plan launched at Mt Eliza last month, Energy United will receive a commission for each consumer signed up to power companies offering the best deal.

Energy United says it will make a donation to “energy-saving activities” in local communities for each local resident or business that takes up a deal that it negotiates on their behalf.

“We know that households and businesses on the Mornington Peninsula are worried about their energy bills and want help to cut their costs,” Energy United’s James Grugeon said.

“Energy United is free to sign up to, it’s easy, and there’s no obligation to take up our offers. We

aim to grow a strong membership of households and businesses, and use their collective purchasing power to negotiate the best deal.”

Mr Grugeon said “members” would also be offered “deals on energy-saving products and services”.

Mr Grugeon is running Energy United with Phil Cohn, of Melbourne-based Ramp Energy Services.

The pair are meeting with chambers of commerce and groups across the peninsula to recruit “members and community champions”.

A former CEO of Environmental Protection UK and a manager for Britain’s largest energy services company, Mr Grugeon has worked with councils, business, community organisations and energy retailers to provide programs that have helped more than three million UK homes save energy and money.

For cyclists it’s a black spot by a nose

By Keith Platt POINT Nepean Rd near Anthony Nose in Dromana may soon be added to a cycling black spot list.

The cycling lane runs out on the approach to the narrowest part of the road, forcing cyclists into the vehicle lanes.

Over summer, cyclists wanting to use the Bay Trail are banned from riding through the caravan park and directed onto the road close to where the bike lane ends.

Jane Odermatt, of Rosebud, who often rides the Bay Trail with her friend Leanne Austin, said they ride in Portsea during summer to avoid the problems between Dromana and McCrae.

Ms Austin fell off her bike where the Bay Trail narrows on the bay side of the seawall at Anthonys Nose.

“Luckily she fell inwards and not down onto the beach,” Ms Odermatt said.

Cyclists with iPhones are listing Melbourne’s cycling black spots while lobbying governments to improve cycling infrastructure.

Bike Blackspot, an app launched by the Greens, gives cyclists a tool to warn other riders of risky sites while sending the information to Transport and Roads Minister Terry Mulder and his federal counterpart, Anthony Albanese.

Ms Odermatt said lack of bike lanes on Point Nepean Rd at Anthonys Nose should be added to the list.

App users can photograph and log the location of everything from dangerous road areas to potholes on bike paths.

The app also enables cyclists to dob in dangerous drivers, praise the courteous and nominate “cycling utopia” areas.

The Greens’ national transport spokesman Senator Scott Ludlam said cyclists could form a powerful group to lobby “state governments that are nervous about electoral boundaries, if that’s the way they want to think”.

“But what I would hope is that they [politicians] will get a whole network response that says: ‘look at the city in a whole network way, work out where the real black spots are and who needs help first’,” he said.

Safety first: Cyclists Jane Odermatt and Leanne Austin cross Point Nepean Rd to the relative safety of the Bay Trail near Anthonys Nose at Dromana. There are no bike paths at this narrow section of road and the Bay Trail is closed over summer to make way for campers. Picture: Yanni

United front for tourism

By Keith Platt FROM a tourism promotion point of view, Frankston is about to become part of the Mornington Peninsula.

Details of the new Mornington Peninsula Tourism Board will be outlined at an industry briefing on Monday and publicly launched on 17 July.

The board will initially be financed with $40,000 from Tourism Victoria and $25,000 each from Frankston and Mornington Peninsula councils.

A nine-member committee will be headed by executive chairperson Tracey Cooper, the only paid employee.

It is understood Ms Cooper – who

has a background in business (including a Hunter Valley winery) and as head of the St Kilda Tourism Association board – will operate two days a week from an office at Frankston.

Tourism Victoria’s Tom Smith has overseen the establishment of the new peninsula board, which supersedes both Mornington Peninsula Tourism and Frankston Tourism.

Mr Smith said the six directors on the new board’s committee were “skills-based”.

Ms Cooper was chosen from nine applicants and there were 42 nominees for the directors.

The directors are Greg O’Donoghue (Mornington Peninsula Gourmet), Conleth Roche (manager RACV resort Cape Schanck), Matt McDonnell (Searoad Ferries), Andrea Lucas, Sheree Fraser and Brian Boote (formerly with Tourism Australia).

Also on the board will be the shire’s sustainable development director Stephen Chapple and Frankston’s coordinator of tourism and economic development, Sam Jackson.

The changes to tourism within the region were foreshadowed in a Tourism Victoria report Regional Tourism Action 2009-2012.

The board will be given two years to draw up a five-year “strategic tourism industry development plan” and a “viable funding model”.

The shire has indicated it wants the new board to have stronger links to the Western Port Biosphere Foundation and the peninsula’s marine industry.

In March the shire’s economic development manager Shane Murphy said Mornington Peninsula Tourism and 10 local tourism associations had been “highly successful”, winning awards and attracting visitors to the peninsula.

He described tourism as “a major propulsive sector for the local econ-

omy” and estimated the peninsula industry to be worth $850 million a year.

The announcement of the new board follows the establishment of a Victorian Tourism Employment Plan by the state and federal governments.

Plans for Phillip Island and the peninsula will be drawn up by a consultant.

“We will be consulting local businesses including hotels, cafes and restaurants, and travel and retail businesses to develop a targeted plan as part of our overarching strategy to further grow Victoria’s $15.2 billion tourism industry, which employs 193,000 people,” state tourism minister Louise Asher said.

THE Mornington Peninsula’s history is going digital for posterity.

Eights historical societies are working to create virtual collections by digitising significant images and archives.

The Local History Network Digitisation Project aims to preserve photos, maps, posters and documents in a standardised digital format that is a recognised and accepted museum standard.

The project reduces the handling of fragile materials while creating back-up archives and photographs.

“The digitisation actually enables damaged photos to be brought back to life and documents that may be literally falling apart can be saved,” Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Frank Martin said.

“This means our local history can be preserved

into the future, prolonging the life of the historical collections and providing greater access to this information for our community.”

Peninsula a screen ‘star’ THE Mornington Peninsula will be the “star” of a short film being screened at Federation Square in September.

Tourism areas of Victoria will be shown on the big screen to Melburnians and visitors from July.

Peninsula attractions on the screen will include Western Port and Port Phillip beaches, wineries, galleries, golf courses, restaurants and cafes.

The films are a joint effort of the state government, Tourism Victoria and Federation Square.

Federation Square is visited by more than two million people each year.

Wedge, rare fish stop servo centres

Call for SPA inquiry

By Mike Hast THE proposed twin service centres either side of Peninsula Link freeway at Baxter have been knocked back by the state planning tribunal VCAT. Key reasons for the refusal include insufficient traffic to justify the servos, loss of green wedge farmland and the project’s potential impact on breeding grounds of the threatened dwarf galaxia native fish.

The decision on 21 June is a huge win for Mornington Peninsula Shire, which refused the AA Holdings application last December saying it was inappropriate for a green wedge zone with unacceptable environmental impacts.

AA Holdings wanted to build for BP servos on either side of the freeway east of the Mt Eliza escarpment on farming land. They were due to open in early 2013 when the freeway is completed.

Shire councillor David Gibb said it was a win for the green wedge.

The decision reaffirmed the shire’s planning scheme, which protected the green wedge for its agricultural productivity, biodiversity and landscape values, he said.

“It was always absurd that travellers would need a rest in Baxter after a supposedly long and exhausting journey from Rosebud; similarly those arriving in Baxter from Melbourne.

“The tribunal gave as one of the grounds of refusal that the applicant had not demonstrated an identifiable need.”

Cr Gibb said the VCAT win was “round one and the applicant will try again”.

No go: Architect’s drawing of how one of the freeway service centre would look. Plans for the twin servos south of Baxter have been knocked back by the shire council and now the state planning tribunal.

AA Holdings’ town planner David Hansen said it was a disappointing decision and the company’s legal team would analyse it to see if there were grounds for appeal in the Supreme Court.

“We had 12 experts at a six-day hearing and the shire had none. We think the VCAT got it wrong.”

Mr Hansen said if an appeal was not an option, AA Holdings would consider submitting modified plans for the two freeway service centres (FSC).

“It’s a good project with many community benefits,” he said.

Plans show each centre would have a “truckies’ lounge”, showers, toilets

and laundry; baby changing room, children’s playground and picnic area; buildings of about 3000 square metres; parking for 100 cars, four buses, five caravans and 16 trucks; 26 refuelling points for cars and four for trucks; a convenience store, five food or retail shops and a tourist information kiosk; indoor seating for 272 people and outside seating for 52; and about 13 toilets, including one for people with disabilities.

In the VCAT decision, presiding member Rachel Naylor and member Greg Sharpley stated there was a lack of identified need for the freeway service centres.

“We are not persuaded about the predicted traffic volumes for Peninsula Link, hence we cannot find with any certainty what the likely traffic volumes and movements will be,” they stated.

The tribunal heard evidence from Henry Turnbull, a traffic engineer of Traffix Group Pty, who said projected traffic volumes would be 30,00040,000 vehicles per day average (not holiday peaks).

“We are … not persuaded these volumes provide justification for the provision of FSCs in association with future traffic growth,” the tribunal said.

Ms Naylor and Mr Sharpley were also concerned about the dwarf galaxia, saying there had been “inadequate evaluation on the extent of or the impact of the construction of the northbound FSC and possibly the southbound FSC (its access track or any future footpath and waterway crossing) on the spawning habitat of the dwarf galaxias.

“Given the importance of this habitat, we have decided the environmental impact is unacceptable in this case.”

AA Holdings bought 10 hectares for the twin servos from Margaret Davis and family in 2010.

Mrs Davis’s father bought 100 hectares between Moorooduc Highway and the old railway line and south of Sages Road in the 1950s. The family built a house on Sages Road near the north-east corner of the land in 1968.

A large part of the Davis cattle farm had already been compulsorily acquired by LMA for the freeway.

Councillors will next month receive a briefing from the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility about building structures on the foreshore and the risk of inundation.

On Monday at another council meeting, with the full complement of councillors back, Cr David Gibb lobbed his own urgent business waterbomb.

The council voted 6-5 to correct information sent in the Powell letter.

Cr Gibb said the shire would borrow $12 million not $29 million for SPA. The shire’s debt as at 30 June 2012 was $35.273 million.

“It’s important to correct the public record,” he told The News.

In other SPA developments, the upper house MP for the region, Johan Scheffer, is keeping pressure on Environment Minister Ryan Smith over consent given earlier in the year for SPA on Crown foreshore land.

Mr Scheffer said he had asked Mr Smith “to come clean on what he knew about the shire’s plans to increase the footprint of the proposed Rosebud Aquatic Centre by one third”.

“Did Mr Smith know the shire planned to increase the size of the facility when he gave consent?”

Mr Scheffer said that with the exception of the St Kilda sea baths, which uses seawater, SPA would be the biggest non-coastal dependent construction of its type on the Victorian coast.

In his letter to the minister, Mr Scheffer said “I am not persuaded that the proposed aquatic centre is coastal dependent, as required under the Coastal Management Act and the Victorian Coastal Strategy”.

Town meetings plan peninsula’s future

By Mike Hast HOW the Mornington Peninsula changes over the next 30 years will be decided by residents, the shire council and the state government in the next 12 months.

The process starts this week with the first of 15 “Plan Peninsula Conversations”, as it has been named

by Mornington Peninsula Shire.

Residents will be asked their opinion about the future look and role of the peninsula for a shire report due to go to the state government before the end of September when the council goes into “caretaker” mode 32 days before the 27 October election.

From this will come the government’s “Mornington Peninsula Planning Statement”, promised by the peninsula’s three state Liberal MPs – Neale Burgess (Hastings), Martin Dixon (Nepean) and David Morris (Mornington) – before the 2010 state election.

The statement will separate the peninsula’s planning scheme from the metropolitan Melbourne planning scheme, a long-term ambition of many residents.

The Bracks Labor government introduced Melbourne 2030 in the early 2000s to stop Melbourne’s urban sprawl and squeeze an extra million

residents into its existing boundaries.

(The urban growth boundary has been moved four times since 2002, three times by the previous Labor government and last week by the Baillieu government when it released 6000 hectares.)

The concept of Melbourne planning rules applying to the peninsula has always met with stiff resistance.

Planning Minister Rob Hulls, a peninsula boy, was strongly criticised in 2006 when he told a meeting in Mornington that the peninsula was the same as Melbourne and its planning decision would be made under Melbourne 2030.

Prior to 1987, the Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Ranges and Macedon Ranges were protected by “statements of planning policy” supported by legislation. This was undone when the Planning and Environment Act replaced the Town and Country Planning Act. For a decade, in many suburbs as well as on the peninsula, residents have complained about the impact of Melbourne 2030 and the role of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal in approving developments after they had been rejected by councils.

Last week, David Morris told The News the planning statement for the

peninsula was to “differentiate it from metropolitan Melbourne”.

He said the Mornington Peninsula’s Municipal Strategic Statement was supposed to have the same weight as state government planning policy, but the VCAT sometimes put more emphasis on government policy.

“We want to put in place an agreed statement that brings the two together.

This will mean Main St, Mornington, is not treated in the same way as Church St, Richmond.”

Asked about the need for affordable housing, Mr Morris said he was comfortable with the location of the urban growth boundary (UGB) on the peninsula, but cheaper housing “should be considered as part of the review”.

“Governments periodically offer the option of moving the UGB, but the boundary for Mt Eliza, Mornington and Mt Martha hasn’t changed since 1979.”

For residents on the Port Phillip side of the shire, there will be meetings in Sorrento, Rye, St Andrews Beach, Rosebud, Rosebud West, Dromana, Mt Martha, Mornington and Mt Eliza.

For details of the meeting, call the shire on 1300 850 600 or 5950 1000, email planpeninsula@mornpen.vic. gov.au or visit the shire’s website at www.mornpen.vic.gov.au

Repairs in waiting: Roadblocks erected by VicRoads are keeping traffic off the Esplanade between Bradford and Hearn roads in Mt Martha. Picture: Yanni

Esplanade closed 6 weeks

By Keith Platt THE Esplanade at Mt Martha is again closed because of a landslide.

VicRoads says the road could be closed for up to six weeks and that a “preliminary investigation … identified that water inundation, due to the significant rainfall … was the reason that the embankment was washed away”.

The latest fall was near the end of a gully between Ian Rd and Fairbairn Ave last Monday week.

The steep gully starts at Mt Martha Park and runs under the road and into the sea.

Rocks and soil supporting the road at the top of the cliff have fallen away, undermining the bitumen and leaving a safety barrier hanging in mid-air.

VicRoads has put up traffic barriers between Bradford and Hearn roads, although local traffic is allowed through to Fairbairn Ave. The road was close for weeks in

mid-2010 following a slide near Bruce Rd that required complete restoration of the road and again, closer to Mt Martha, in March last year when the roadside crumbled.

VicRoads blamed poor drainage in nearby “local roads” controlled by Mornington Peninsula Shire.

A subsequent investigation into the state of the Esplanade showed there was no immediate need for any further action. Cracks and some subsidence in the bitumen are apparent in the road’s surface near Marguerita Ave and on the bend near Deakin Dve. Similar conditions at Mt Martha north of the Balcombe Creek estuary have recently been covered by a new layer of bitumen.

VicRoads regional director, metro south-east, Peter Todd said “the local community” would be told about “the work that needs to be undertaken and the timing of that work”.

Toorak leads the way on new curriculum

Picture: Yanni

Dolphins have a tough half year IT has been an “appalling year” so far for dolphins in Port Phillip, according to Jeff Weir, executive director of the Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute.

The institute has posted a video on YouTube showing aerial footage of a fishing trawler sinking after hitting rocks near Point Nepean as well as close-ups of dolphins with skin lesions.

Speaking over the pictures, Mr Weir said the institute wants to double its research programs into the causes of the skin lesions by the end of 2013.

He said the shipwreck was near “our dolphin sanctuary” while the lesions

were seen after storms. Mr Weir is using the video to urge people to donate to the institute and remind them that “it’s not too late for donations to be included in this year’s tax return”.

Institute chairman Ian Stevenson said researchers at Lakes Entrance had proved there was a correlation between outbreaks of the pox lesions and declining water quality.

“The pollution seems to lower dolphins’ immunity levels. The researchers believe there is a link between the outbreaks and water quality.”

TEACHERS across the Mornington Peninsula can get expert insight into the Australian Curriculum during a conference at Toorak College.

College principal Helen Carmody said all classrooms in the country would be affected by the national curriculum.

The Australian Curriculum outlines learning “entitlements” for Australian students to “provide a foundation for successful, lifelong learning and participation in the Australian community”.

The curriculum will initially be developed for English, mathematics, science and history and followed by geography, languages, the arts, economics, business, civics and citizenship, health and physical education, information and communication technology, and design and technology.

It focuses on seven general capabilities (literacy, numeracy, information and communication technology competence, critical and creative thinking, ethical behaviour, personal and social competence and intercultural understanding) and three cross-curriculum priorities (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures, Asia and Australia’s engagement with Asia, and sustainability).

“Our purpose in organising this conference is to bring together primary and secondary mathematics, science, history and English teachers in a forum where they can interact with those directly responsible for the implementation of the new curriculum,” Mrs Carmody said.

She sees the establishment of a national curriculum as a “landmark move

in the history of education in Australia”.

“The delivery of the Australian Curriculum will impact the teaching and learning in every classroom in this nation,” Mrs Carmody said.

Keynote speaker at next month’s two-day conference is the chair of the Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority, Professor Barry McGaw, who will focus on the “logic of the curriculum’s structure and its consequences”.

The 11 keynote speakers include Dr David Howes, general manager of the curriculum division of the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority.

The conference will also include workshops and trade exhibitions.

“The conference is an outstanding professional development opportunity.

It will assist practitioners in enhancing their personal strategies and the delivery of the Australian Curriculum,” Mrs Carmody said.

“It is a wonderful opportunity for teachers who have trialled various aspects of the Australian curriculum to share their experiences with the wider teaching community and the experts responsible for its implementation.”

Education minister Martin Dixon, who is MP for Nepean and a former teacher, described the conference as “a ground-breaking initiative and a marvellous opportunity to have opinions voiced while taking on board a diverse range of views on curricula”.

Toorak College is hosting the conference called “Exploring and Implementing the Australian Curriculum” on 23 and 24 July. Details: 9788 7265.

‘Lost boys’ journey leads to book and influence DAVID Nyuol Vincent lost his country, family and childhood before finding Australia.

Described as one of the “lost boys of Sudan”, he arrived here in 2004 under a humanitarian visa after 17 years in refugee camps.

Since then he has written a book about his experiences and built a reputation as someone who can help bridge barriers between African refugees and resident Australians.

In 2011 The Age named him as one of “Victoria’s 100 most influential people”.

Mr Vincent will next month speak about issues facing refugees at the Mornington Peninsula launch of his book The Boy Who Wouldn’t Die, cowritten with journalist Carol Nader.

“We are geographically isolated from refugees in Melbourne, but they will be such an important addition to Australia in the near future,” launch orghaniser Dizzy Carlyon said.

“I felt that some genuine interaction would help us to understand the issues they and we face to ensure that they are a welcome and happy part of our little world.”

Mr Vincent has become a spokesman for the growing African population, especially those in Melbourne.

He runs a blog (davidnyuolvincent. com/blog/) that contains his thoughts on tensions and progress being made within the community.

In his latest essay he describes the treatment in alarmist headlines by the press of tensions between young Africans and police.

“I know the newspapers love such headlines because for one they sell and at the same time it is an interesting read,” Mr Vincent states.

“What I am sure is not being considered either by the media or those who read these news stories and believe them is that these headlines incite a certain fear in the public and as a result people grow to have very conservative attitudes towards others, especially so-called refugees.

Knitting lesson: Needy Stitches founder Janice Bartlett of Seaford shows the fine art of knitting squares to Greg Sugars, Carrum Downs Community Bank board chairman, on a cold wet day, highlighting the need for knitters to throw their support behind the Food For All winter blanket appeal.

Stitches for warmth

Refugee author: David Vincent has first-hand knowledge of the problems facing young Africans in Melbourne.

“Worst of all, it encourages prejudice and racism, and reinforces suspicion of anyone who is different.

“There will always be the fear of the unknown. This is what is happening.

“The majority of the Australian public doesn’t know much about the African settlement process or about African people.

“I could be wrong but those who don’t know much about African refugees outweigh the handful who are very welcoming and understanding.

“The only time Opposition leader Tony Abbot seems to come alive is when he’s damning the boat people.”

Former Prime Minister Malcolm

Fraser, who has also criticised Mr Abbott’s approach to boat people, will launch the book.

The Boy Who Wouldn’t Die by David Nyuol Vincent will have its peninsula launch at 5pm on Friday 20 July at Max’s Restaurant, Red Hill Estate, Shoreham-Red Hill Rd, Red Hill South.

The cost is $50 a person, with proceeds going to the Brotherhood of St Laurence.

For bookings call Dizzy Carlyon on 5989 2118 or send cheques made out to the brotherhood to 39 Oceanview Av, Red Hill South 3937.

KNITTERS are busy stitching up a warmer winter for needy Mornington Peninsula residents, with calls for assistance to welfare agencies doubling in the past 12 months.

Carrum Downs Community Bank branch has partnered with Southern Peninsula Food For All Winter Blanket Appeal to provide blankets, rugs and comforters for needy families, elderly and homeless.

“We are calling on an army of knitters to use their skills to help people in need this winter and we will lend support by donating $6000 of wool,” bank chairman Greg Sugars said.

Knitters will be able to make squares with the donated wool, which will be sewn together to make blankets for those in need this winter.

Janice Bartlett started Needy Stitches when her own knitting was no longer needed by family members.

“I decided that there must be other people out there who, like me, know how to make things and have nowhere to donate them to, or do not know how to search for somewhere.

“I thought about the hard economic times we are all facing and of all the needy families out there who barely scrape through after paying their ex-

penses and thought it would be a wonderful idea to donate these things to those families and individuals in need.”

About 30 members of the resulting Needy Stitches group are now making squares for the winter blankets.

“Nothing we create is for sale, that’s the number one rule. I have done a lot of research on who requires what and will keep doing this so we can help as many organisations and people that we can,” Ms Bartlett said.

Southern Peninsula Food For All has been providing assistance to people in need since 1991 including food parcels, Christmas hampers and blankets.

“With increasing costs for utilities and food, more people are finding it difficult to make ends meet,” Southern Peninsula Food For All chairman Ken Northwood said.

“We have had a rise in the requests for emergency assistance, but at the same time there has been a decline in donations.”

Anyone who can help make knitting squares for blankets can register to receive wool from Bendigo Bank branches on the Mornington Peninsula. For patterns and wool, email Fran Henke at fhenke@bigpond.net.au or call 5979 7274.

Overlooking the bay

Fine first step on property ladder

STUNNING from every angle, this architect-designed home is a showcase of style and luxury. The quality on display is evident from the first moment when you enter through security gates across the fully sealed driveway that leads up to a double garage. As you make your way up a set of merbau timber steps to the front door, glance across to the tiers of landscaping that adorn the property. A limestone feature wall separates the entrance from the first of three living areas with a polished spotted gum timber walkway leading to an internal staircase that takes you up to the second level. The kitchen is very elegant with its stainless-steel twin-drawer dishwasher, underbench oven and rangehood. There is an adjoining meals area that overlooks a second lounge room and from both positions you can access the main entertainment deck. A full-length set of bi-fold doors can be opened to enlarge the living areas and bring the outdoors right to you. The deck area has a second section around the corner of the home with a rotunda-style platform and from this elevated position you can enjoy views across the treetops.

THIS single-storey home is an excellent entry-level property for those starting out in the market or investors looking to capitalise on the popular location. Of faux limestone construction, the home offers three bedrooms and a study plus two more living areas, so space-wise the home has a lot to offer. The interior is well presented, all floor coverings are in good condition and there are timber floors in the kitchen and adjacent meals area.

There is a wonderful bathroom with spa bath and separate shower. The home is set toward the rear of a 731-square metre (approx) block and for a landscaper there is plenty of scope to improve the surroundings. All the essentials are already here â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some tall palm trees, a paved area for summer dining and, best of all, a fenced pool.

As with most units, the living area is open plan, but the sunny aspect the home enjoys allows for plenty of natural light, which opens up the area considerably. The combined lounge and dining area has a gas log fire and split-system air-conditioner and the nearby kitchen has a tiled floor plus granite benchtops and stainless-steel appliances including a dishwasher. As a handy extra for extending the living space, there is a lovely sunroom that opens onto the north-facing courtyard. Paved paths are on all sides of the home and the greens and red of the plants work well against the white of the pebbled garden beds. The huge master bedroom has access to the courtyard and the second bedroom has a built-in robe. Both bedrooms share the bathroom. The unit has been set up for wheelchair access and from the single garage at the front there is internal entry via the laundry.

Seeing Is Believing - 5 Hidden Acres

Vendor Has Had Enough

So private yet so close to everything the Peninsula has to offer. There are golf courses in all directions, the Hot Springs around the corner, horse riding, wineries, restaurants and best of all Gunnamatta Surf beach a stones throw up the road. The 5 glorious acres are a la natural; beautifully undulating and a blank canvas for someone with vision. The country atmosphere is further enhanced with the private country lane setting and the high quality neighbouring acreage properties. Also on the property is a challenge that would have Bob the Builder scratching his head in the form of an old derelict house. Only the eternal optimist could possibly see it as a doer-upper even though whats left has glimpses of bye-gone character.

Our vendor wants a sale and has priced this property accordingly. The home itself is a three-bedroom brick-block rendered construction on a slab. Very neat and clean and ready to enjoy. Large verandah and massive workshop. Scope to extend up or out STCA if you wish. Properties this close to the beach are hard to find and in this price range almost impossible. Enjoy from day 1.

Rain dampens reservoir work

By Keith Platt DEVILBEND Natural Features Reserve has been closed to the public.

The closure follows heavy rains that are being blamed for delaying the $1.6 million works on building new facilities for picnics, sightseeing and fishing.

Parks Victoria chief ranger Libby Jude said wet weather was one of the many challenges when building a park.

“We’ve had reservoir water levels up to 68.15 metres with many parts of the park still extremely wet,” Ms Jude said.

“We’ve now closed the park entirely and will keep it closed in the interests of public safety while construction takes place.”

Ms Jude said works would resume after the park had a chance to dry.

She remained hopeful that the park would reopen in spring “weather depending”.

“As anyone working in constructions knows, the one thing you can’t control is weather.

“We’re looking forward to a few dry days and progressing the works for this great new asset on the Mornington Peninsula.”

Ms Jude said the first stage of construction had been running ahead of schedule before the rains hit.

She said the depth of water in the reservoir was “in pretty good shape”.

Devilbend was decommissioned as a source

of domestic water after algal blooms and health fears and Melbourne Water said it would be surplus to its needs once the peninsula was connected to Melbourne’s water supply.

The water is now deeper than predicted some years ago when Melbourne Water proposed subdividing and selling parcels of land now included in the 1000-hectare park.

When used to provide domestic supplies, Devilbend was supplemented by water pumped from the Tarago Reservoir near Neerim South.

However, levels appear to have exceeded expectations despite the cutting of supplies from Tarago.

Ms Jude said the present high levels came from rain and “natural runoff”.

Times of drought were inevitable and investigations were underway for other sources of water if the reservoir needed topping up.

Once finished, the works will increase the area open to the public “six-fold”, according to Hastings MP Neale Burgess.

The works include a new asphalt entrance, 50 car spaces and an extra 30 places for special events; new picnic facilities and toilets; walking tracks and reservoir access points; and two fishing and viewing platforms.

The Devilbend picnic area is on the side of the Devilbend Reservoir wall off Graydens Rd. For updates on the reserve call Parks Victoria on 13 1963 or visit www.parks.vic.gov.au

Weathered: Work has been delayed by rain at Devilbend Natural Features Reserve at Moorooduc.

Golf boss wins US trip by design FLINDERS Golf Club superintendent Colin Morrison has scored a trip to the United States and has been invited to help prepare the course for the $4.6 million John Deere Classic golf tournament – a US PGA tour event.

The trip was the result of him winning the Australian Golf Course Superintendents Association 2011 Excellence in Golf Course Management Award.

The award was recognition of Mr Morrison’s work in reconstructing the 11th green at the club, which turned the hole from a relatively straight par four along the left-hand boundary of the course to a sharp dogleg right.

Mr Morrison worked with club captain Neil Cavanagh on the change.

“The improvements to the course have been substantial over the past 10 years and the award recognises Colin and his team’s contribution to that improvement,” Mr Cavanagh said.

As well as helping to prepare the course for the John Deere Classic to be played at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois, 9-15 July, Mr Morrison will also have a tour of the John Deere factory and headquarters at nearby Moline in Illinois.

“This is the opportunity of a lifetime, which has come about as the result of the construction of our 11th green.”

Mr Morrison believes the trip will give him experience and knowledge that he will be able to apply at Flinders.

Award win: Colin Morrison is off to the United States.

Canberra money helps fill pool

By Mike Hast FRANKSTON Council will borrow less money for the $46.35 million aquatic centre after the federal government promised $13.5 million earlier this month.

The council now has $26 million of government money after the state government promised $12.5 million in the run-up to the 2010 state election.

Minister for Regional Australia, Regional Development and Local Government Simon Crean announced the council’s application for funds under the Regional Development Australia Fund had been successful.

Frankston’s mayor Cr Brian Cunial said money from the two governments meant “ratepayers won’t have to carry the full burden of the remaining costs”.

The News understands the state money is available, but the federal

cash will not come until the 2013-14 financial year.

The council will borrow up to $18 million with the balance coming from rates and other sources of council revenue.

Mr Crean was joined by Isaacs MP Mark Dreyfus and Frankston council-

lors at Samuel Sherlock Reserve where the council will build the Frankston Regional Aquatic Health and Wellbeing Centre (FRAC) with a 51.5-metre Olympic-sized swimming pool, a learn to swim and leisure pool with play area, cafe, gymnasium, waterslides, splash deck, warm water therapy pool,

spa and sauna, crèche and health and wellness centre.

Mr Crean said the centre would “provide people living in the regional centres of southeast Melbourne with access to state-of-the-art competition and leisure facilities”.

He said the project was “a great example of an investment partnership that stacks up and joins the dots between being a local priority, leveraging other funding sources and returning an economic and social dividend to the region”.

The project would project a significant economic boost across the region and create about 300 construction and 50 ongoing jobs.

Mr Dreyfus said the pool would draw people from all over the growth corridor of Melbourne’s southeast and “contribute to community pride and regional liveability”.

Cr Cunial said the centre was expected to attract 700,000 visitors each year, “providing a recreational outlet for people of all ages”.

The pool would bring more visitors to the city centre, creating new impetus for business operators.

“The centre will create about 300 jobs during construction and 120 ongoing jobs once open for business.

The plans are being finalised by William Ross Architects and construction is scheduled to begin later this year and be completed by June 2014.”

State MP Jude Perera said he had strongly supported the council’s development fund application. “Labor has committed $26 million toward making this great dream into a reality.”  Frankston Council is advertising for a business manager for the aquatic centre. An advertisement in The Age stated the manager would oversee all aspects of the business from establishment of the centre to managing it when open. The role also takes in the Pines Forest Aquatic Centre.

Welcome to musical theatre of my mind

By Stuart McCullough ONCE upon a time, movies didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t revolve around special effects. Most of the action in a Hollywood blockbuster these days is pasted in later on a computer, leaving the actors largely superfluous.

In fact, so prevalent are computergenerated effects that the day is surely not too far beyond us where the award for best actor is given to a laptop.

Granted, it will have to be carried to the stage, but it will doubtless thank its agent before disgracing itself at the after party.

No, movies didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t used to have to resort to hocus pocus to draw in audiences. Movies were, instead, reflections of our own lives and stories were strictly drawn from real life.

Films such as Singing in the Rain, Yankee Doodle Dandy and The Sound of Music were harrowing depictions of reality. We saw ourselves in these films. Or we would if we were prone to bursting into song.

I confess, whether on film or on stage, I am something of a sucker for a musical.

Last Thursday night I went to Narre Warren to see my 14-year-old nephew perform in his very first musical production.

As I sat down, I could not help but reminisce as the scent of grease paint filled my nostrils. In fact, the scent was so overpowering that I began to regret having smeared greasepaint across the top of my lip and was compelled to reach for my handkerchief.

They say some people are born into the theatre. Not me, though. Sadly, I was born in a more conventional loca-

tion at the Mornington Bush Nursing Hospital, well away from anything resembling a stage.

Granted, had my parents been less organised, I could have been born in the back of a sedan, thus setting me up with the kind of fabulous back story so beloved by theatre types, but, no, they had to be punctual.

Despite this major setback, I was always destined to act. Not particularly well, but to act nevertheless.

When Tyabb Primary School announced in 1976 that its prep year students would be tackling the Nativity as part of the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school concert, the theatre world sat up as one and took notice.

It is well known that the Nativity is one of the great performances, perhaps second only to Macbeth. In fact, it is often said that Shakespeareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s failure to

write a play based on the Nativity was all that stood between him and greatness.

Just as actors dare not speak the name of that Scottish play, poor old Willie Shakespeare didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dare even to write about the Nativity.

This did not deter us, however. My costume consisted of my dressing gown, gumboots and a beard made out of cotton wool. If I do say so myself, the transformation was little short of staggering.

My fellow classmates in grade prep were astounded as I completely disappeared into character and became Bystander Number Two. I even refused to answer to any name but Bystander Number Two for all purposes.

As I walked through the street of Tyabb (for there was pretty much only one street at the time), I was all but un-

recognisable.

Come the day of the big performance, I was determined to give the parents and teachers the greatest show of their lives. I was going to act like nobody had ever acted before.

The performance itself is largely a blur. Whether that can be attributed to the adrenalin of the moment or the urgent need for corrective lenses is difficult to say.

The play concluded with a kind of Busby Berkeley-style musical production number, except that instead of lots of colour and dancing, we stood rigidly still and tried not to forget the words. It was a task too great for some of my colleagues.

But although it may well be true that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no business like show business, it is still a fairly brutal undertaking. So it proved during my breakout perfor-

mance in the Nativity that night. For while there were about 20 students on stage, there was only one microphone.

I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember the name of the little girl who was handed the microphone by our teacher. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call her Lady Macbeth. She held that thing like Excalibur, determined not to give it up at any cost. What Lady Macbeth never figured on was an actor so determined, so completely immersed in his role as Bystander Number Two that he would stop at nothing to get his hands on that microphone.

I wrapped my fingers around that thing in a vice-principal-like grip.

Startled, Lady Macbeth wrenched the object back and I went with it, singing as I went. In the end, they had to bring the curtain down early to restore order.

It was too late. I was reprimanded, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care. It would not be the last time that I, or indeed other people, would suffer for their art.

There were no such incidences of intra-cast violence last Thursday. To be fair, though, they had a lot more microphones.

My nephew was simply terrific. He hit his marks, delivered his lines with confidence and even managed a dance routine.

But as I watched, I could not help but feel a hankering. A part of me, probably the part still covered in greasepaint, wanted to stride up onto stage, grab the nearest microphone and burst into song.

It was an urge I managed to resist.

Perhaps, just as it had been with that microphone all those years ago, I still canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite let go. www.stuartmccullough.com

Performance THE Beatles were, quite simply, phenomenal. They changed pop music and in writing their own songs, they set a pattern that would liberate popular music.

Although people think of The Beatles as Paul, John, George and Ringo, their musical history began in 1957 when Liverpool schoolboy John Lennon invited 15-year-old Paul McCartney to join his group, The Quarrymen.

Three years later they were playing in Hamburg clubs as The Beatles and were joined by George Harrison, bass guitarist Stuart Sutcliffe and drummer Pete Best. Sutcliffe remained in Hamburg and Paul McCartney took over on bass.

Liverpool record store proprietor Brian Epstein became their manager and assisted in developing their image.

Pete Best was replaced as drummer in 1962 by Ringo Starr and The Beatles signed with Parlophone Records and released their first single, Love Me Do, produced by George Martin.

The second single, Please Please Me, reached No 2 on the UK singles chart and they embarked on a nationwide tour with Helen Shapiro as the support act. A string of 12 UK No 1 hits followed including From Me to You, She Loves You and I Want to Hold Your Hand. Beatlemania had engulfed the UK. After appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, The Beatles became the first UK act to have major US success; at one stage the band held the top five positions in the US charts.

Band members were awarded MBEs in 1965, the same year as the release of the album Rubber Soul. The following year after a concert in San Francisco, the band gave up touring to concentrate on more studio work with George Martin, which in turn gave us Revolver, regarded by many in the Australian rock industry as their best album.

The 1967 album Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was a rock benchmark. It had everything right down to the fascinating pop art collage cover.

When Epstein died from a drug overdose in 1967, The Beatles continued without a manager and the following year set up their own record

company, Apple, and released Hey Jude. It became their bestselling single with more than six million copies sold worldwide. It was replaced by the label’s second release, Paul McCartney’s production of Those Were the Days for Mary Hopkin.

The band broke up in 1970 amid lawsuits and acrimony, but their reputation has endured.

Although John Lennon’s death in 1980 ruled out a full reunion, The Beatles’ effect on popular music remains indelible and undeniable.

Shock Entertainment has released a DVD The Beatles: Here, There and Everywhere 1963-1970. Wherever the band went, the cameras of ITN News followed, allowing an insight into an amazing rise to fame and overwhelming success.

The 85-minute DVD from the ITN archives contains unseen footage catalogued by each year.

Highlights include The Beatles arriving in the US, Paul McCartney admitting taking LSD, the ballad of John and Yoko and their marriage, he death of Brian Epstein, band members in India, off the record interviews recorded during TV rehearsals and private back stage moments.

I do like country music so I’ll wait till I can walk there. Rye Civic Hall? *** A COLD morning, 7am and I turn the wireless on to SEN (sport) accidentally. They’re discussing a racist comment by former Seinfeld actor Jason Alexander. Politically incorrect they said, and unnecessary in this enlightened age. Footballers? Enlightened? Very funny; well, perhaps some Collingwood footballers. One more on AFL. “Our great game continues to evolve and continues to improve.”

Evolve maybe, but with some 150 injured players out every week, I would seriously question “improve”. More like a form of rugby. *** I SO admire AFL numero uno Andrew Demetriou, always looking after us, be it racism, tweetism, sexism, even ciggiesism. So the new substitute will be called the Carlton Draught substitute to encourage responsible drinking. Affectionately known as God, Andrew has kicked another goal on our behalf. *** “CAN you remember where you were when Kennedy was shot or when the

space shuttle disintegrated?” I’m forever reading this type of question in magazines and newspapers. Who remembers? I can barely remember where I was when Collingwood won the 2010 premiership and I’m particularly hazy about what I did yesterday. Fortunately I still know the way to the supermarket, the RSL, Rosebud Hospital and the beach. Sometimes I travel all the way to Dromana. *** I’M forever having a go at politicians, more from a cynical bent than any sense of real dislike. I save the real stuff for insurance companies and channels 7, 9 and 10. If pollies want to play their power games (with a dash of social justice), so be it. At least they’re democratically appointed (up to a point anyway) unlike our religious leaders. I’m fairly certain they truly believe they mean well, albeit with a hypocritical blind spot as we all have. Politicians travel first class and eat lots of smoked salmon, caviar and drink imported champagne. They exist as a necessity in every democratic country with variations as to the degree of graft and collusion. *** I LIKE the suggestions about the traffic on the Esplanade between Safety Beach and Mt Martha. One fellow suggested bike lanes north and south,

traffic one way only and reducing the speed limit. I agree up to a point. I’d reduce the speed limit from 60 to 59, keep the two-way traffic and ban all bikes. Bike riders? I’ll bet none of them smoke. *** A SURVEY by VicHealth found one in three Victorians had witnessed sexism in the past year and done nothing in nearly half the cases. Ah, but there’s more. A major survey from Texas of 3000 couples found the children of straight couples were healthier, happier and richer than gay and lesbian couples. This one attracted two pages in the Herald Sun. Of the 3000, 175 little darlings had lesbian couples and 73 gay couples; plus 2752 straight couples? Nothing quite as exciting as a good old-fashioned survey. What would we talk about if there were no surveys? Never mind the details like numbers and type of questions, just give us the results. Hogwash et al. *** THE British have wiped their hands of Julian Assange; no surprise there.

Now to Sweden to face sexual assault allegations, questionable at best. But what of the United States waiting in the wings and the seemingly unconvincing comments from Dame Julia, old Bob Carr and darling Nicola Roxon? Beware, Julian. I wouldn’t trust

A Grain of Salt IT’S been suggested I’m a whinger.

Whingeing is when you’re a sad sack who never sees life’s pluses. I’m constructive; big difference. Solid reasons, like crooked politicians, pseudo financial counsellors, rich people who want to become richer at our expense and insurance companies. I don’t whinge about old age, the weather, the concern of getting emphysema or a stroke or going gaga and allowing my subconscious to prattle on unabated. I’ve already got cancer, but am I complaining? I say nothing and tell the ghosts to look elsewhere. I’ll go when I’m ready. Mind you, like most men, I’m a sook, but that’s another story. *** I WAS reminded of Rome (Vatican City) when Venus transited the face of the sun.

Blues out of five, southern teams all grinners NEPEAN DIVISION

By Toe Punt HASTINGS lost to Frankston Bombers on Saturday despite having arguably its best side for the season.

The loss sees the Blues drop out of the top five and once again raises questions about what has happened to last year’s grand finalist.

On Saturday, the Blues were up to their old tricks, running forward of the footy, showing little respect for their opponents and lacking defensive pressure.

Although the final margin was just 15 points, the Blues never looked like winning.

Its opponent was up and about from the first bounce.

Despite going into the game without Sam and Ben Drake, Ryan Lonie, Leigh Bidey and Dean Wagner, the Bombers kicked six goals to one in a blistering first term.

Brad Harvey finished with four goals and Nathan Lonie three for the winners while Haydn Moore continued his outstanding season in the ruck.

Jake Foster has also become a standout players for the Bombers and his two goals were valuable, while Shaun Wilkey did a sensational tagging job.

Hastings recruits Mark Devereaux and Adam Jago worked tirelessly for the Blues over four quarters and 2010

recruits Kyle Pinto, Matty Robbins and Andrew Kiely shone.

Could the question about Hastings be about the blokes who have been around the clubs for years? Are they sitting back and expecting the new blokes to do the job?

If Hastings is in strife in sixth place, words to describe the mess that Somerville is in escape me.

Somerville was ordinary at best on Saturday against Rosebud and the result highlighted it.

The home side booted two goals in the first quarter and finished with just three for the match.

The game lacked excitement and certainly was a eighth versus 10th contest.

Rosebud’s structures were a lot more sound than the Eagles and this was the difference between them winning and losing the game.

Somerville couldn’t win any ball out of the middle, while Rosebud through Dan Giarusso and Ryan Spooner dominated.

Chris Rogers and Cade Egan were superb for the Buds across half-back and Paul Lewis was the best on ground, dominating in the ruck and around the ground.

Somerville’s best were Justin Allsop, Ben Sedgewick and Caleb Cox. They worked hard all over the ground and continued to provide run.

Eagles’ coach Leigh Stewart had 47

possessions; but the large majority of them were deep in defence and didn’t hurt the Buds.

The Eagles’ Glen Boyd and Luke Forsyth were well held, although at no stage was the ball delivered well to them.

Rosebud’s pressure on the ball carrier was superb and made life difficult for the forwards.

Ben Schultz booted four for the Buds and it should have been eight. The big fella dropped some regulation marks.

The highlight of a very boring game was the running goal in the pocket from Daniel O’Hehir, his third for the afternoon.

Red Hill sits in fifth place on the Nepean ladder with a very healthy percentage after beating Tyabb by six goals.

After thrashing the Eagles last week, there was always a danger the Hillmen would take their foot off the pedal against the second-last Yabbies.

Things were tight in the first quarter after the Yabbies booted four of the first five goals.

The Hillmen hit back late in the term and drew level at quarter time.

The margin was just three goals at the final change, before the more highly fancied Hillmen kicked away.

David “Syrup” Maplestone and Josh Mold each booted three for the winners, while a further 10 players con-

tributed on the scoreboard. Marcus Dal Lago and Benny Maguiness through the middle of the ground were sensational, while Chris Farmer and Andrew “Happy” Gilmour continue their outstanding runs.

Dale Binks has been Tyabb’s best performer for a couple of weeks and Saturday was no different, while skipper Matty Dimkos and Ryan Jones with four goals could also hold their heads high. Simon Rahilly played one of his first senior games for the Yabbies and acquitted himself well.

Rye’s goalkicking sensation Justin Van Unen booted 11 against Pearcedale on Saturday, helping Rye to a massive 28 goals and a 99-point win.

Aaron Fiddes found himself in the seniors for the first time this season and finished with five, while the very consistent Andrew Dean chipped in with three.

Benny Winters-Kerr was also back in the line-up and enjoyed a run through the middle and in attack, finishing with multiple goals.

The midfield of Ben and Sean Cain and Andrew Dunn was the catalyst for the win.

Pearcedale was not happy with the umpiring in the game, promoting coach Ben Cadd to formerly complain at the end of the match. The former three-time Seaford premiership player said it was the worst display of umpir-

ing he had seen in 11 years of senior football.

Damien McCormack and Chris Fortnam worked hard for the Panthers and Pat Heijden with three goals was also solid.

Sorrento completed the expected and got the four points against Devon Meadows.

The Sharks needed to get away to a good start in foreign territory and did exactly this, booting six goals in the opening term.

Tyrren Head finished with five goals and Dalton Sanderson and Leigh Poholke four each for the Sharks while Troy Schwarze was back and played a superb game.

Patrick Harmes and Jessie Dehey were the best of the Panthers.

Dromana continued its great season, knocking Crib Point out of the top bracket with a commanding sevengoal win. Toby Banks booted six goals and Braden Dennis and Liam Hogan dominated through the middle. Jay Neratzoglou was superb in defence, along with Rikki Johnson.

The Tigers were always in command, despite good performances from Luke Herrington, James Cook and Andrew Dowey for the Magpies.

Got the blues: Frankston Bombers defeated Hastings on Saturday and knocked the Blues fell out of the top five.

Mt Eliza goes equal top, Dogs fail again PENINSULA DIVISION

By Toe Punt MT Eliza sits equal on top of the MPNFL Peninsula Division table after beating Frankston YCW by 11 points on Saturday.

In a low-scoring match, Mt Eliza didn’t gain the ascendancy until midway through the third quarter, turning a 23-point half-time deficit into a twopoint three-quarter time lead.

The Redlegs booted eight goals to three after the major break and highlighted that the competition is far from a one-horse race.

Earlier in the season, Karingal came back after a slow start and went down to the Stonecats by less than a kick.

The Bulls were able to bounce back from that and do a number on the Redlegs.

This was a game that every football supporter was waiting for.

Big match-ups, such as Ash Eames and Scott Simpson, was the element that many football fans were excited about.

Then there were the likes of Byron Barry and Anthony Barry against Scott

Lockwood and Sam Lloyd.

The Redlegs went into the game without key playmaker Ben Lean, while Daniel Smith missed for the Stonecats with a broken hand. Fullback Dane Antonov was another key omission with a hamstring strain.

YCW coach Tony Barry gave the Redlegs ammunition before the game with his comment in the Footy Record: “They really believe in themselves,” Barry said.

Was this a nice way of saying he thought Mt Eliza was cocky?

Barry was right in saying the Redlegs matched-up well on the Stonecats, stretching them for height.

The potency of the Mt Eliza forward line and the run and carry of the halfback line was always going to cause YCW concern. This proved to be the case after half-time.

Scott Simpson was sensational in the ruck for the winners, Dan Gormley was dangerous through the middle and Jimmy Clayton, Ben Landry and Sam Gill were outstanding.

Lockwood and Lloyd finished with a couple of goals each.

Ricky Morris finished with three ma-

jors for the Stonecats and Lew Roberts was one of their best with a couple of goals. Craig Nankervis and Ben Tellis also worked hard through the middle of the ground.

Mt Eliza coach Jason Watts told The News he was proud of his boys’ effort.

“We started slowly and I think we were pretty nervous, to be quite honest – we really wanted to perform well against the best side,” Watts said.

“Once we found our composure, I thought we controlled the game from quarter time. In the end, we probably should have won by four goals.

“It was an important game for us to at least compete. Karingal squared us up a bit and we had gotten ahead of ourselves. We had to stand up against YCW. “Although we won, all it means is that we can be confident of competing with the best.

“There is a long way to go, but the boys know our best is good enough.”

Chelsea had to fight extremely hard to get the four points over Langwarrin.

In a match that ebbed and flowed, the Seagulls got their noses in front

late in the second quarter and were able to maintain a lead for the rest of the match. The final margin was just nine points.

While the Redlegs, Stonecats and Bulls are flying, this result again shows how far the Gulls are off the pace.

Sam Carpenter worked beautifully with ruckman Fabian Deluca and they were probably the difference between the sides.

David Biaggi was back and played well and Ben Finemore played one of his best games of the season.

The Kangas were right in it. Jack O’Shea was outstanding with two majors, Andrew Borrie was outstanding and Shane Urbans continues to have a major impact.

A Chris Hay-led Karingal left the Pines home ground with the four points after winning by 12 goals.

Hay booted six while Michael Burke and James Tyquin continued their outstanding seasons.

Jimmy Messina and Brad Wicks were among the best for the Pythons.

Seaford got what it was after at the Eagles’ nest, gaining the four points after beating Edithvale-Aspendale by 49

points. Michael Kraska was back with five goals and Brayden Irving finished with four, while Gareth Fricker and Luke Smith were outstanding.

Zac Muschialli was, for the second week in a row, Edithvale’s best player, while Nick Connellan, Timmy Mannix and Jeremy Heys worked tirelessly, as usual.

Bonbeach once again proved it is the best side currently outside the top five, easily accounting for Mornington.

The Sharks smashed the Bulldogs with a 10 goals to two opening half, effectively ending the contest.

It was four goals each in the second half, but the damage had been done.

The Doggies fielded one of their best sides for the season, while Shane McDonald was back for the Sharks after a six-week suspension.

James Norton and Nathan Hicks booted four each for the Sharks while Tom Payton was outstanding over four quarters.

Kallum Searle and Matt Johnston were the best of the Doggies, and skipper Scott Matthews also flew the flag.

Stingrays win three on trot

By Toe Punt THE Dandenong Southern Stingrays made it three wins in a row after knocking over the lowly ranked Northern Knights by 23 points at Shepley Oval on Saturday.

The Stingrays were kicking against a three-goal wind, but booted the first goal after some neat forward crumbing.

The home side booted five goals straight in the opening quarter, but a lapse of concentration late in the quarter allowed the Knights back into the contest.

Big man Jake Calvert led and pressured very well to keep the ball inside the attacking zone and put the young Knights backman under pressure, while Jason Pongracic continued his good form of last week with aggressive attack on the ball and smart use through the midfield.

The second term was one of wasted

chances with the Stingrays kicking 2.6 and allowing the Knights to score easy goals with poor decision-making and giving away numerous free kicks.

Frankston YCW teenager Timmy McGenniss was working hard through the middle to be one of the Rays better players.

Somerville’s Troy Jacobson was one of the best players on the ground after a solid four-quarter performance.

At the half-time, the Stingrays held a 28-point lead.

The third term was a scrappy affair with the Stingrays showing a lack of urgency and decisiveness.

Mornington’s Nick Newman kicked the first goal of the third, but it was all Knights.

The visitors outworked, out-tackled and outplayed the Stingrays and took full advantage of the wind, kicking five unanswered goals.

After moving some magnets at threequarter time, on top of some home are playing with maximum points, so there are some question marks over how they’ll fit him in.

Holmes is back RYE coach Ben Holmes played two quarters in the reserves on Saturday and got through after missing the past eight weeks with a knee injury.

Holmes is expected to spend another week getting himself right before the big clash, broadcast live on RPP FM, against Red Hill on 7 July.

Gulls’ big signing CHELSEA secured an absolute star at the beginning of the season when it landed Port Melbourne premiership ruckman Fabian Deluca.

Just this week, the word coming out of the Gulls was that they had secured Sandringham star forward Nick Benbow.

Word is that Benbow will be right to go in a month’s time. The Gulls

Benson to stay?

FOLLOWING the appointment of new MPNFL chief Jeff Jones, the rumours started that operations manager Ian Benson was retiring.

Asked if the rumours were true, Benson said: “I have been in the job for a long time so you can never say never.”

truths from coach Graeme Yeates, the Rays were up and about in the last.

They worked hard in defence and through the midfield and the backs controlled the long, high ball. The Stingrays outscored the Knights 6.7 to 3.1.

YCW backman-cum-forward Josh Westerman kicked a lovely goal in the last quarter.

His YCW teammate Josh Pickess and Seaford’s Trae Tohiariki were first-time players for the Rays and were outstanding.

Details Stingrays 16.16-112 d Knights 14.5-89.

Goals: Jason Pongracic 3, Nick Newman 3, Nathan Gardiner 2, Dale Gawley 2, Matt Rennie 2, Jake Calvert, Nathan Foote, Mitch Wallace and Josh Westerman.

Best: Jason Pongracic, Troy Jacobson, Tim McGenniss, Nick Newman, Matt Rennie and Jake Calvert. former Somerville and Frankston Bomber forward Josh Collie.

He walked out on the club a month ago and there were plenty of rumours about his destination.

Collie was cleared to Rye during the week and played in the reserves on Saturday.

Umpires under fire AFL umpires have come under the spotlight throughout this season.

On Saturday, Southern Umpires came under fire.

Pearcedale coach Ben Cadd made a formal complaint, saying the umpiring in the Dales’ match against Rye was the “worst I have seen in 11 years of senior football”.

At Somerville, Rosebud coach Mark Hustwaite approached the RPP commentary box midway through the second quarter, wanting to know if the commentators had been taking the free kick tally.

He was extremely frustrated, as were the Rosebud supporters, who jeered every time their team got a free kick in the second half.

More blues: Frankston Bombers defeated Hastings netballers on Saturday 71 to 28.
