EASTER RACE DAY MORNINGTON

New Look Jason Warren Team Thriving

After over two decades as a horse trainer, Mornington’s Jason Warren has grown conditioned to change.

It’s the nature of the industry that horses, staff and even properties come and go but it’s the foundations that trainers build themselves over time that ultimately set them up for continued success.

Warren had always been keen to learn, long before preparing his first ever winner, Oro’s Gift, at his home track in June 2001.

“I was essentially a horse breaker and pre-trainer who developed into a trainer and when I made that transition, I felt that I probably needed to further my education if I’m going to be a competitive, commercial trainer,” Warren said.

“I went and worked for Lee and Anthony Freedman. Essentially, I base the way that I train on the way that they train.

“I rely on my eye a lot and being up close with the horses, seeing how they pull up after they gallop and how they eat every morning.”

The past decade has seen several gun gallopers pass through under

that watchful eye. Bel Sprinter was his banner horse for five seasons, delivering Warren his first and only Group 1 title in the 2013 Galaxy (1100m) at Rosehill. Rosemont Stud bred and owned superstar Brooklyn Hustle was next to fly the flag, bursting onto the scene in 2018 before retiring in June last year as one of the unluckiest horses in recent memory not to win at the elite level.

The absence of Brooklyn Hustle threatened to leave a sizeable hole in Warren’s ranks but as luck would have it, along came Hellbent filly Benedetta. The rising star made her debut in December last year before winning four on the bounce and over $600,000 in prize money with her greatest victory so far coming at her penultimate start in the $750,000 Inglis Sprint (1200m) at Flemington on March 4.

“Our banner horse from last season, Brooklyn Hustle, she’s just retired to stud. It’s nice to have a filly like Benedetta to fill her shoes so it’s exciting times ahead for our stable,” Warren said.

“The barrier beat her at her first start at Moe and since then she’s just taken big steps at every outing. What she reeled off [in the Inglis Sprint] was as sensational on the clock as it was to the eye, and we feel that we don’t know where her ceiling is yet.”

Warren says that all options are on the table for Benedetta in the spring, also highlighting his confidence in the likes of Confrontational and Tax Free Prophet while declaring that “the

sky’s the limit” for star two-year-olds Freakofnature and Treasurway.

“It’s very exciting and I think we have a lot to look forward to, especially in the spring. We’ve also got a really good team of staff, probably the best that we’ve had in many years.

“You can’t do it without good people around you and essentially it’s not just good people supporting your stable with good horses but also the staff to take care of them.”

it privately. 10-acres so close to the track, opposite our front gate is the entrance to the pool. It’s just the perfect spot and I’ve built 16 boxes here with the view to building another 50 down the front.

“The horses are very relaxed when they walk out of our front gate. It’s pretty quiet, you wouldn’t think you’re five minutes from Mornington being here. It’s so peaceful.”

That serenity contrasts with the “electric” atmosphere that Kate says is currently running through their stable thanks to quality horseflesh and fresh surrounds.

As for Warren’s motivation for another big race victory, ten years after claiming his first Group 1?

Warren’s recent success would suggest that he’s in career-best form, this season he’s already knocked off his own prize money earning record with four months still to go. Good staff and horses help but his decision last year to compliment his existing set up with the purchase of a 10-acre property on Roberts Road, adjoining Mornington Racecourse, also appears to have contributed greatly.

“I’ve trained at Mornington for over 20 years and most of that time has been off track.”

“My partner, Kate, found this place for sale and so we bought

“I’m a fierce competitor, whether that’s a BM58 at Pakenham on a Thursday night in the last race or a Group 1 on Friday night at Moonee Valley.”

“I think that the moment that you lose that competitiveness, you’re probably in the wrong game.”

Some things never change.

HOMELESS support services are calling on the state government to build crisis accommodation on the Mornington Peninsula as more than 1000 people search for somewhere safe to sleep every night.

Community Information Support Victoria – which has support centres in Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings - called crisis talks on Friday (31 March), with centres facing unprecedented demand and workers worried about the health and safety of clients

coming into colder weather.

Southern Peninsula Community Support CEO Jeremy Maxwell said the need for accommodation and support services had increased by 25 per cent in the past 12 months.

He said that while the homelessness issue wasn’t new, support services had to “keep the conversation going” so governments don’t think people the problem has gone away.

“There has been an exponential jump in demand, with 233 attending our Rosebud service centre in March alone,” he said.

“We [support services] are all

wondering what the future holds, because there has been little movement in this area. So far, we have had no indication from the state government - which has primary responsibility for housing and homelessness - that crisis accommodation is in their plans.

“As we get closer to winter, demand grows as some of the other services will drop off and we have to meet the need - if this continues, will could be forced to say, ‘sorry, we can’t help’.”

Maxwell said the peninsula had been left behind in terms of government money.

“If you go to Melbourne or out west

there are crisis beds, we do not have one crisis bed on the peninsula,” he said.

“We already have volunteers who have put their hands up ready to staff a crisis centre, we have toilets and showers we can move around, we just don’t have the venue.”

Every year the centre provides hundreds of tents to the homeless, with many camping on foreshores where they are supported by the SPLASH program (shower and laundry).

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Steve Holland supported calls for more government assistance and said

there were nearly 4000 residents on the public housing waiting lists.

“We have also called on the government to consider policy levers and measures to balance short and long stay rentals and to provide urgent investment in social and affordable housing on the peninsula. We are not getting our fair share of the Big Build funding for public housing.”

Maxwell said community support services would also like to see state laws changed to allow granny flat accommodation on existing properties, and the removal of tax concessions for Airbnb properties. Continued Page 3

Bella beats shire but loses her final battle

A BELOVED dog at the centre of a stand-off between Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and its owner has died.

Mount Martha dog Bella became a symbol of the fight against bureaucracy in 2021 when owner David Hall was fined $248 for having a dog at large.

Ball said Bella, just out of surgery after the removal of a cyst on her left back leg and several infected teeth, may have passed him on her way out to the garden which – like the neighbours –has no front fence. A grass easement abuts the made road.

He said the shire “safety officer” – not described as a ranger or local laws officer – walked up and asked if Bella belonged to him. After confirming she did, Ball explained that the “old girl” had been groggy all night from the previous day’s operation, and he had not expected her to come outside in her weakened state.

Unmoved, the officer proceeded to issue a fine.

Housing crisis

Continued from Page 1

“Negative gearing was originally introduced so investors could invest in housing, not holiday accommodation, so that needs to change,” Maxwell said.

Ahead of the 2023–24 state budget announcements in May, the Council to Homeless Persons released its state budget submission for investments it wants to take place within a ten-year strategy to “end homelessness in Victoria”.

The CHP says more social and affordable

housing is the key, along with addressing the “drivers of homelessness” – poverty, family violence, discrimination and supply of affordable housing.

It is calling on the state government to invest an additional $47.5 million in 2023-24 ($220.6 million over four years) to continue and grow the From Homeless to a Home program to sustain people in accommodation, and $3.6 million over four years to employ more support workers to deliver “evidence-informed” responses to homelessness.

The Department of Families, Fairness and Housing was contacted for comment.

Annoyed at the pettiness of the fine – with the elderly Staffordshire just barely past the property boundary – Hall vowed to “go to jail” rather than pay the fine (“Fine, but groggy Bella in no mood to move” The News 10/5/21).

He said his then-14-year-old dog had been “nabbed by default” as the shire officer was in the dead-end street, possibly looking for another dog that had “rushed” a neighbour on Wednesday 21 April.

Ball, who was caring for his wife who had suffered a stroke, was not prepared to step back from the fight for justice and went public, eventually leading the council to drop its pursuit of the money.

Over the line: Struggling to walk, Bella was barely out of her yard but was booked for being out of bounds. Picture: Gary Sissons

At the time of the incident, Ball advised dog owners, especially in Mornington, “to be aware”.

“This is a convenient wage earner,” he said. Last week Ball said he was grieving Bella’s passing but thankful for her company over many years. Liz Bell

MPs’ rush for the exit a headline act

FLINDERS MP Zoe McKenzie is one of seven Coalition MPs to apologise for attempting to exit parliament after the Speaker had ordered the doors closed before a vote.

The Speaker, Milton Dick said a rush for the door on Wednesday 28 March by the MPs was “a very serious and grave incident” that saw an attendant injured while attempting to close the door.

“As all members are aware … after the Speaker orders the doors to be locked no member may enter or leave the chamber until after the division,” Dick said.

“It does not matter whether the doors have been able to be fully closed, the point at which the order is given from the chair is the point at which no member is allowed to enter or leave the chamber.

“I am particularly disgusted by this behaviour, and I will not tolerate it. For a staff member of this place to be treated in this way when they are simply doing their job is disrespectful and a very serious matter.”

The following day each of the seven MPs apologised for their rush for the door.

“I apologise to the House, Mr Speaker, for seeking to leave after the Speaker had ordered that the doors be closed. I deeply regret and apologise for any impact caused to the staff member involved,” McKenzie said.

The unseemly rush (or should that be crush) by the MPs to leave the room before having to raise their arms to indicate aye or nay for an amendment that was roundly defeated, 95 votes for and six against, with the Op-

position voting with the government.

McKenzie told The News that it was commonplace for MPs to leave the chamber when they are not required … “as we have many other parliamentary duties to attend to”.

However, also lurking behind the headlines and news reports outlining the circumstances behind the Speaker’s displeasure, was the unlikely involvement of Archie Bear.

No stranger to being involved

in politics, Archie Bear, above, is McKenzie’s pet dog. He accompanied her on the campaign trail last year, wearing a coat bearing her name.

But not disclosed previously was the slowing effect of McKenzie’s moon boot, which she was wearing as a result of “seriously damaging my ankle… [while] playing soccer with Archie Bear”.

McKenzie said Archie Bear was fine “but remorseful”. Keith Platt

Concert to raise money for research Make a point

A LIVE music event at Westernport Yacht Club this month will feature three hours of entertainment, with all proceeds going to research into diet and cancer.

The event has been organised by non-forprofit Nutrition Biomed Research Institute, a research organisation that aims to bring diet to the forefront in the fight against cancer.

Spokesperson Dr Maree Brinkman said that diet was generally not part of the standard overall management and care of a patient's cancer diagnosis and treatment, despite links between diet and illness.

“While it can vary according to different body sites, it has been estimated that diet contributes to around 30-35 per cent of all cancers, and so we believe it can play a significant role in the prevention and management of the disease,” she said.

Brinkman’s move into the area of cancer research began years ago when her father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

“I had never thought much about diet and health until my early 30s [and] I remember seeing my mother who was normally a very strong and capable woman beside herself with anxiety in the family kitchen not knowing what food she could offer my dying father who was wasting away,” she said.

“Dad subsequently died a few months later from the disease when I was three months pregnant with my second child.

“I remember thinking that I don’t want to ever be in that position of feeling totally helpless and not being able to provide the nourishment my family and loved ones needed. And so, once my children were school age, I went back to my studies and completed a Bachelor of Science majoring in nutrition, a Master of Nutrition and Dietetics, and a PhD in Biomedical Sciences.”

Brinkman says the decision was prescient as her own husband, Wens Brinkman, was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in his early 50s.

“While I had planned a full-time career in

research, I turned my attention to his care and clinical dietetics to also help others with a cancer diagnosis too,” she said.

“Wens had a 10-year battle with his cancer and we found that making the right dietary choices while he was undergoing all his various treatments - surgery, chemotherapy and radiation - helped to minimise the side-effects from his treatment and disease, and helped to improve the quality and possibly even the duration of his life.

“Wens sadly passed away at the start of the first wave of COVID during the lockdown in April 2020, but he had always dreamed of helping other cancer patients. He had been a big advocate of bowel cancer screening as well the physical and mental health benefits of healthy lifestyle modifications, such as enjoying a nutritious diet and keeping active with regular

exercise in conjunction with his medical care.”

A couple of years before Wens died, he helped to set up the not-for-profit research organisation Nutrition Biomed Research Institute, along with a small team of dedicated individuals. The team at NBRI has continued to work to fulfill his dream of bringing diet to the forefront in the fight against cancer by working to make it part of the standard multidisciplinary care of a cancer patient through evidence-based research.

NBRI has worked alongside other large research institutions both nationally and internationally on projects relating to diet and cancer, many of which have been published in scientific journals. The team has also been conducting its own innovative quality research projects on diet and cancer and currently has several papers that are in various stages of development and publication.

Up until the pandemic closed down travel, NBRI had academic placements for two Masters of Health Science students from Maastricht University in the Netherlands. The results of both students’ work from their time of working at NBRI have been published in scientific journals.

NBRI plans to work with more Australian and international health science students again now that the COVID restrictions have ended.

Other work done by NBRI is to inform the public of the latest scientific evidence on diet and disease via social media, blogs and presentations to community and cancer groups.

All proceeds from the live music concert will go to NBRI’s research projects on diet, genetics and advanced prostate cancer.

Bookings at: trybooking.com/CGMPD or nbri. com.au

Entry is a tax deductible $50 donation and includes performances by Bobby Valentine and the Lavamen, as well as local Lauren Elizabeth. Light, healthy snacks and lucky door prizes will also be available with drinks at bar prices.

The concert is 2pm-5pm Saturday 15 April at the Westernport Yacht Club, Balnarring Beach.

PUBLIC suggestions are being sought for the future use of Police Point Park, at Portsea.

Sandwiched between the last residential street (Cove Lane) in Portsea and the Point Nepean National Park, the 17 hectare Police Point is owned and managed by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council.

The shire described it as “a beautiful heritage property that it now wants to identify “opportunities to expand the experiences the community could enjoy”.

In a news release, the shire asks if the public wants “more social and activity spaces”; improvements to existing infrastructure or facilities; or signs about First Nations history. Suggestions can be made throughout April.

“Looking to the future, we would like to explore what other activities our community would love to see come to life at Police Point … so that we can ensure the space is enjoyed by the broader community,” the mayor Cr Steve Holland said.

Not mentioned in the shire’s news release are its responsibilities under the Deed of Settlement of Trust for the land signed on 26 March 2004.

The deed agreed to by the Commonwealth and the shire came 17 years after the federal government first proposed subdividing the Police Point land for housing.

After years of public debate and criticism, the federal government finally agreed to give Police Point to the shire. Credited with organising the handover were then-shire CEO Dr Michael Kennedy and Dunkley MP, Bruce Billson.

To comment on the future of Police Point Shire Park go to: mornpen.vic.gov.au/policepoint or in person 11am-1pm Thursday 6 April in Ocean Beach Road, Sorrento (near the information centre) or 8am-11am Saturday 15 April at Police Point Shire Park.

Summit connects youth to culture

MORE than 250 Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander secondary students from 30 schools attended this year’s annual Koorie Youth Summit at the Willum Warrain Aboriginal gathering place in Hastings.

The Friday 31 March Culture Matters-themed summit was co-sponsored by the South East Metro Aboriginal Suicide Prevention and Healing Network and financed by Youth Justice as well as long term supporters, the Willum Buckland Foundation.

It was the third summit and had “the key aim of connecting young mob around culture”, Willum Warrain CEO Peter Aldenhoven said.

“This exciting event involved entertainment, cultural activities, yarning circles, show bags and refreshments,” he said. “A Welcome to Country was provided by the Bunurong Land Council with deadly cultural performances by headline act Wergaia/ Wemba Wemba singer, Alice Skye, supported by Bandoktiti, the Small

Ant Brothers dance group.”

Aldenhoven described the day as “an important opportunity for young mob across the region to share culture and build a collective identity connected to our gathering place”.

“We want them to grow up strong and proud, young Aboriginal people,” Aldenhoven said.

A feature of this year’s summit had been the focus on “supporting our youth via cultural healing”.

“There is considerable evidence of the importance of cultural identity as a protective element in young Aboriginal people’s lives,” Aldenhoven said.

Also involved in the summit were the Commissioner for Aboriginal Children and Young People, Victorian Aboriginal Child Care Agency, Mornington Peninsula Shire, Hastings and Frankston headspace and regional Koorie engagement support officers from the Department of Education and Training.

Police hold back traffic as tree gets the chop

BALNARRING Beach came to a standstill last Tuesday (28 March) when police held up traffic for Mornington Peninsula Shire Council workers to cut down a tree.

The shire said the 70 to 100-year-old manna gum was leaning over Balnarring Beach Road and was a traffic hazard.

Residents who have been fighting to save the tree showed their anger at its axing by gathering alongside the remnants of its trunk and hanging signs condemning its loss.

“We leave far more dangerous large pine trees reaching their lifespan on 80 to 100 kilometre an hour roadsides that often fall across roads risking lives, but remove a healthy koala manna gum in a 40 kilometre speed area that actually helped slow traffic to the existing speed zone,” Cr David Gill said.

“The face of our semi-rural municipality is rapidly changing to meet urban expectations because the state government applies the Melbourne planning scheme and out of date road regulations to our scenic Mornington Peninsula.

“We will not fully understand what we are losing until it is gone.”

Susie Beveridge, a former councillor and candidate for the Watson Ward seat won last month by Kate Roper, accused the council of being “underhanded” and cutting the tree down when Gill was “effectively shut away in a council meeting”.

Beveridge said the shire’s claim of the tree being too close to the road had been “exposed to be a bit of a furphy” as there was room on the road for vehicles to pass the leaning tree.

“Many horse floats travelling to Balnarring Beach don't seem to have an issue with moving over slightly to give the tree a berth,” she said.

“Residents and the ward councillor David

Gill had fought to save this particular tree. it’s lean had not increased at all over the years; it had survived the earthquake and the tremendous windstorms that swept through, uprooting many healthier specimens..

“This tree had stood strong, until the chainsaws came.” Keith Platt

Young minds illustrate ancient chaos

A COLLABORATION between Boon Wurrung elder N’Arwee’t Professor Carolyn Briggs AM and Balnarring Pre-School has resulted in a third self-published book to honour and celebrate First Peoples culture.

The Time of Chaos was launched on Saturday 25 March at the Womin Djeka Balnarring Ngargee, a community-run family festival that honours and celebrates First Peoples cultures.

Professor Briggs has been working with teachers and children at the pre-school for almost 10 years, and in 2018 asked the children to illustrate her stories.

The following year the Bundjil Creation story was published, followed in 2020 by Barraeemal Story.

The Time of Chaos has taken three years to complete as the school navigated its own chaos during lockdowns and COVID restrictions.

The book contains images of the children interacting with the story and being with nature, as well as drawings students produced in response to the text.

The text contains Boon Wurrung words with a pictorial dictionary, and while it has been illustrated by young children, the content and relationships with the land provide learning for children and students of all ages and their teachers.

Pre-school lead teacher Karen Anderson said there were strong messages in The Time of Chaos story about climate change, the importance of caring for country and relationships with each other and the land.

The pre-school was joint winner of the 2021 Narragunnawali Award,

which recognises outstanding reconciliation initiatives in schools and early learning centres.

The teaching team has organised six conferences to provide opportunities for teachers to learn with First Peoples as the teachers.

Anderson said the pre-school hoped to inspire other teachers to learn about First Peoples cultures and for them to have the skills and confidence to embed First Peoples perspectives into their programs.

She said the Ngargee (festival) came about through the community embracing learning about First Peoples cultures and history. She said It promoted cross cultural awareness in a “vibrant, family-friendly outdoor space” with a focus on community and shared through music, dance, language, art, conversations and first-hand experiences.

The festival was paid for through fundraising, grants and a volunteer contribution on the day.

Anderson said Briggs challenged the pre-school and wider community to view the relationships with First Peoples beyond reconciliation and develop mutual relationships based on reciprocity.

Briggs said the relationship with Balnarring Pre-School was built on four key values: learning, showing respect, celebrating life and honouring sacred ground.

“The Balnarring teaching team have learnt and continue to learn to listen deeply,” she said. “It is important to me that the bubups (children) learn about culture, as they are our future.”

Petition’s call for plastic tax

A ROSEBUD grandmother has delivered an 18,000-signature petition to the federal parliament calling for taxes to be introduced on plastic packaging.

On Thursday 30 March Pam Pill took her petition to Canberra to hand it to David McElrea, chief of staff to Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek.

Pitt is the treasurer on the board of Citizens' Climate Lobby Australia, a grassroots environmental group working to influence climate policy.

She says that as a grandmother, she is committed to leaving a better world for future generations and was pushed into action after the collapse of plastic recycling company REDcycle which had claimed to have diverted more than five million pieces of plastic from landfill since 2011.

Last year REDcycle was declared insolvent after failing to pay storage fees for the thousands of tonnes of plastics it had been storing around the country.

Pitt said the company’s problems highlighted the need for the government to support the recycling industry, and the need for manufacturers to make more responsible choices.

“It’s time to make a stand against the increasing use of plastic in Australia,” she said.

Pitt started the petition last year, but said it had taken months in the planning and to secure an appointment in Canberra for the presentation.

“I feel sick when I see the amount of plastic in the oceans. I’m angry that

Shire looks to save energy at pools

soft plastic has been stockpiled - they can’t find enough uses for the huge amounts collected. I hate that I don’t have the choice of sustainable types of packaging at the supermarket and retail outlets.”

Pitt said saving money at the expense of the environment should not be an option, with manufacturers currently choosing packaging on the basis of cost and profit.

“Plastic is cheap and the manufacturers have little regard to the impact on the environment and happily pass the responsibility of recycling to the end user,” she said.

“We need to make plastic less attractive to use. It is time that a tax was imposed at the point of import or manufacture of plastic. If plastic is more expensive, it will mean industry will look at other options.”

Pitt said governments should use the tax to subsidise sustainable or easily recyclable materials.

According to CleanUp Australia, about 13 per cent of plastics are recycled in Australia, despite the country generating more single-use plastic waste per capita than any other country.

Just two weeks ago, Coles, Woolworths and Aldi announced they were hoping to restart soft-plastics collection and recycling by the end of the year.

Pitt said her petition was “well received” in parliament and she was told there was a lot happening in the recycling space, as well as a global summit in April that Plibersek had been invited to.

PUBLIC swimming pools on the Mornington Peninsula will not be closing or changing opening times in line with cost-cutting measures adopted by some municipalities due to crippling energy prices.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor

Cr Steve Holland said that although power prices were rising steeply “at this stage” the council was not planning any changes to the operation of aquatic and recreation centres. Aquatic centres use up to 15 times more energy per floor area compared to an average commercial office building.

Some Victorian councils have reportedly reduced pool temperatures in a bid to cut costs, while others have cut operating hours.

Cr Holland said the council was investigating ways in which it could reduce grid demand and become more energy efficient, such as through electrification and by optimising renewable energy assets.

“Energy efficiency is a priority. When building the Yawa Aquatic Centre in Rosebud, we installed 916 solar panels on the roof,” he said.

“Since opening in 2021, Yawa’s 375kW solar system has offset approximately 812MWh of onsite energy demand, at an estimated value of $138,040. This has also prevented emissions estimated at 489t Co2 e from entering the atmosphere.”

In the UK and France hundreds of pools closed or reduced opening times over winter because they could not afford to heat the water.

Peninsula surfers reclaim title after 29 years

AFTER 29 years Peninsula Surf Riders are again the Victorian teams titles champions.

Westerly winds and a moderate swell saw the event held at Smiths Beach, Phillip Island which president Sean McDebitt said was a “weird call”. However, it was a call that worked well as surfers maintained focus and embraced the challenging conditions.

The main draw had the Fingalbased club in the second semi-final with Torquay and Point Lonsdale.

Lachy McDonald started off with a 7.17, while Will Watson “smashed” three big turns on a sub-par wave for a 9.5, which McDebitt described as “unbelievable stuff”.

From there the peninsula surfers made it through to an easy finals berth with Pedro Lani, Justin Grey, Ava Holland and Joel Wookey all contributing to a 47 point heat total.

The stand-alone junior event was held in a dropping tide with few quality peaks and dumpy closeouts.

McDebitt said Jett Harrison had the peninsula team’s riders moving early with a nice swoop and again “Watto showed his skills, chucking a backside finner-reverse on an average wave to double whammy a seven plus score”.

“Dromana wunderkind Ava Holland inked multiple turns as the nominated junior girl, and Sophie Wilkinson saw the group home, surfing on the junior men's scale,” McDebitt said.

Peninsula’s open team finished second to 13th Beach.

In the women's division Holland and Wilkinson were joined by Ruby

Armstrong and Rose Holland, who “smashed” it and took a convincing win.

Armstrong’s disappointment with her own performance was a highlight, says McDebitt, because it shows the “desire” the young athletes have to improve and win.

“Keep in mind she was the only 11

year old in the event, and her 2.93 contribution was essentially the winning margin,” he said.

Peninsula Surf Riders were favourites heading into the main event.

Lani made the most of opportunities in deteriorating conditions, scoring 8.17 on a shoulder high "bomb".

“A very slow ocean saw all teams

under time pressure, and again Will's ability to turn a mediocre wave into a score was the difference for our team,” McDebitt said.

“A 7.1 - doubled again to 14.2 - had us well in front and the clock was the only challenge from here on out.

“Lachy jagged a quick 4.8, Justin made a nice backside reo for a 4.73,

Ava bagged a 4.03 and Wookey was clutch - milking a single turn out of a dodgy closeout for a 3.63 in the final moments.

“The scores were hidden on live heats and we all managed our expectations before the presentation but, in reality, it was pretty clear - we'd finally done it again.”

MIKE GREEN, STANDING ON THE INSIDE (PRINTS 1980 - 1991)

MIKE Green is a Mornington Peninula-based self-taught representational artist who works across painting and printmaking. He has a new exhibition at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery featuring a print portfolio he generously donated to the Gallery’s collection. Standing on the inside (Prints 19801991) presents a selection from this body of work. The etchings, lithographs and screenprints depict a range of semi-abandoned, ageing and intimate interior spaces, within homesteads, houses and beach boxes; many are the fruit of Mike’s epic journeys throughout rural and urban Australia, Boston and beyond.

Alive with the possibility of artistic adventure; the prints highlight Mike’s technical skill and experimentation, his preoccupation with light, space, colour and our built environment. Born in New Zealand in 1945, arriving in Australia in 1949, Mike has exhibited in significant contemporary art galleries from the late 1960s into the 1980s when this portfolio was created. He has had an active career inside the art world, whilst mainly moving at its periphery.

Mike has travelled extensively over several decades, living on the Mornington Peninsula for over forty years with his wife Janet. MPRG is excited to present these works for the first time, as part of their local focus series of

exhibitions.

Head to the MPRG website to find out more about their autumn exhibitions, including Deborah Kelly’s CREATION and an exhibition of local VCE students titled New Wave 23. They also have an exciting program of school holiday workshops and an immersive ceremonial music and dinner experience with Deborah Kelly at Beleura House and Garden.

Overcome the challenge of stairs by future-proofing your home

STAIRS are the most common place for accidents to occur in the home and falls from stairs can have serious consequences.

Faced with this challenge, many people feel their only choice is to move to a single-level home.

If you are going to enjoy your retirement, then you need to address the issue of the stairs; whether it is carrying groceries or wood upstairs, struggling to walk down them yourself, or whether friends and family find them so hard to navigate that they no longer visit.

However when you go to look for single-storey homes, you may find that they are rare or expensive or just do not have the view. And besides, why lose all that money moving if you can stay safely in your home?

Australian RESiLIFT® inventor, Peter van Emmerik, conceived the first ‘through-floor’ residential lift because he wanted to empower people to stay in their home as they aged. He wanted to design a lift that was able to be installed into existing homes at an affordable price.

Peter’s award-winning lift has been replicated across the globe. His ground-breaking shaftless design was patented and has been the inspiration for many residential elevators.

“I designed this lift so people could stay safely in the home they love,” says Peter. “It saves time, effort and money that would otherwise be wasted moving home. It also removes the emotional anguish of being uprooted from your family home.” Without a doubt, installing a RESiLIFT® enables people to stay in their two storey or split-level home without the limitations and dangers of stairs.

“It’s such a relief! Now I know we can stay in our home! We love it!” says Margot Ling who installed a RESiLIFT® a few years ago. She said, “We love the area, we love living here, why would we move?!”

RESiLIFT® is not only an affordable solution, it’s a smart choice. The RESiLIFT® can be retrofitted into existing homes with minimal hassle. It can also be

easily installed in new builds. Many people on the Peninsula install the RESiLIFT® in their holiday houses as they prepare for their sea change. Despite its very small footprint, RESiLIFT® still fits two people. There are three different sizes available, some models can accommodate walkers and even wheelchairs.

RESiLIFT® has truly been a ‘life-saver’ in many people’s homes. With the potential upheaval of an unexpected diagnosis, injury or surgery, it’s good to know that at least the challenge of stairs is removed. One customer initially installed the lift for when their elderly parent visited, but it later helped when their grandchild developed mobility issues. For many customers who are still agile and mobile, the lift may just be

used for carrying loads of washing, suitcases or groceries. This is much safer than carrying these items on the stairs and will help them stay fit enough to enjoy the rest of their retirement.

Installing a residential lift in your home is enables you to stay in the home your love.

YOU’VE just started putting in the extra miles, walking or running to get fit, and suddenly putting weight on the base of the foot, near the heel makes it ache, and makes more training a painful prospect.

That sharp pain in your heel can be a symptom of plantar fasciitis, a condition of the connective plantar fascia tissue in your foot, and traditionally very difficult to treat.

Physiotherapist Sienna Wills says Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury that can feel as though you have a pebble in your shoe.

At Back In Motion Balnarring, we have several solutions for this condition. Firstly, it is important to look at your whole lower limb biomechanics. As a result, we can work on your strength and flexibility in your leg and foot, prescribe orthotics, tape and teach taping, and use massage and ultrasound to reduce inflammation. We have a unique way of mobilizing your foot and teaching “foot core stability” to reduce pressure on the plantar fascia.

Apart from the above solutions, there is a newer healing technology that is making a profound difference to Plantar fasciitis sufferers.

Practice owner and physiotherapist, Paul Rowson says shockwave therapy is often useful, because the Plantar fascia is a connective tissue, not a muscle. “It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to,” Mr Rowson says. “It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon”. Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, tennis and golfer’s elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems, and is usually most effective on long term chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Both physios say that Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. For more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results in other Back In Motion clinics. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a 90% success rate,”Ms Wills says.

The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments.

“It is a bit of an uncomfortable sensation,”Ms Wills says, “like most physio hands-on treatments with a little discomfort during the treatment.”

Mr Rowson says,” After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain.”

“Probably the best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It stops a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and cannot be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders.”

“It is important to know that shock wave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes without having to do further treatment.” says Mr Rowson.

Western Port News 5 April 2023 PAGE 25 The only debt free solution for older Australians. For over 17 years, Homesafe has been helping older homeowners unlock the equity in their home without going into debt or needing to sell their home. Call Homesafe on 1300 307 059 or visit homesafe.com.au Homesafe Solutions Pty Ltd (ACN 106 784 918). Terms, conditions and eligibility criteria apply. Available in most metropolitan postcodes in Greater Melbourne and Sydney.

A safe and secure option for unlocking the equity in your home.

IN recent years, the rising cost of living has become a major concern for many individuals and families, particularly those who are approaching retirement age. As people look for ways to supplement their income and meet their financial needs, one option that has gained popularity is the option to release the equity in a home via a solution like Homesafe Wealth Release®.

Homesafe Wealth Release offers a unique solution to the financial challenges faced by many older Australians. By providing the ability for homeowners to access the equity in their homes without having to go into debt or downsize, Homesafe Wealth Release offers a way for individuals to pay off debt or supplement their retirement income and maintain their quality of life in the face of rising living costs.

The cost of living in Australia has been steadily increasing over the past several years, with expenses such as food, housing, and healthcare becoming increasingly expensive. For older Australians, who are often living on a fixed income, these rising costs can be particularly challenging. Many retirees find themselves struggling to make ends meet, even after many years of saving and investing for their retirement.

For over 17 years, Homesafe (in partnership with Bendigo & Adelaide Bank) has provided a tried and tested solution which has assisted thousands of homeowners by focusing on providing a secure equity release option – debt free.

A debt-free option is not a loan, and as you don’t borrow money, there is no capitalising interest costs. Repayments don’t apply, and instead the entitlement of the provider is capped so you can protect a portion of the equity in your home into the future. You can also sell your home at any time, or the provider will receive their entitlement when you pass away, and your home is sold.

Joan and Michael

In November last year, Joan and Michael from Rye, approached Homesafe to pay off their $90,000 loan and $25,000 credit card debt.

“For us, a debt free solution was the answer. We were struggling to make the interest payments on our loan, and now we can spend money on our garden and can retire without financial stress. Michael is waiting for surgery and the costs for his medical care have been a real worry to us. The relief that we could use the value of our home and access the cash we need without having to sell, was life changing!”

Initially Joan had investigated a reverse mortgage but they were not comfortable with that option in their circumstances.

A step ahead of the rest

“For us, the Homesafe solution was the answer. We didn’t want to replace one loan, with another. Homesafe really changed our lives for the better!”

They even ended up recommending the Homesafe product to their friends and neighbours!

How can I make an enquiry with Homesafe?

The team at Homesafe offer personalised service by phone initially, and a no-obligation meeting with a Homesafe Mobile Specialist in

your home is organised to ensure you can receive all the information you – and your family – need to make an informed decision.

Our Hastings Foreshore Master Plan was adopted by Council on 21 February. Thanks to everyone who contributed their thoughts during our extensive community engagement. Your local knowledge helped shape the Plan. We’re now looking forward to putting the Plan in action.

Great news the mural Painting Our Future at Richies IGA in Hastings won bronze for the 2022 Australian Street Art Awards. Make sure you have your say on our Public Art Policy before 19 April.

You can expect a collaboration of local food and beverage producers, resident celebrity chefs, local traders and businesses showcasing what our Peninsula has to offer.

Cr David Gill

I am looking for community feedback about your small community led projects that require Council approval to proceed. Often the process seems rigid with surprising costs and discouraging amounts of paperwork.

When a proposed community noticeboard for Shoreham costs $60,000 and a small canopy over a platform at the amphitheatre in the Common at Balnarring costs $80,000 it is time to rethink the Community Capital Infrastructure Project program to assist in keeping costs down!

It’s well known our volunteers are the backbone of our community and our Meals on Wheels team urgently need more volunteers in Rosebud. If you can help on weekday mornings between 9.30-11.30am please visit our Meals on Wheels webpage or phone

The work to improve Tassells Cove car park continues to progress. We’re expecting planning approval by mid-April before we can go out to tender. The work is part of the Safety Beach Master Plan.

Watson

Kate Roper has been elected as the new Watson Ward Councillor. She will be sworn in at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 4 April and will then begin her official duties. Kate was previously a Councillor for Cerberus Ward from 2016 to 2020. Her previous experience will be invaluable to support and work with the Watson Ward community and improve life for all residents. We congratulate her and welcome her back to Council.

Dim view of drastic prune

This picture, right, is an example of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s and its arborists incredibly caring approach to tree management. Sadly, Balnarring Beach koalas and residents have lost their battle to save this 70 to 100-yearold manna gum.

On Tuesday (28 March) morning council contractors and a platoon of police blockaded Balnarring Beach Road and proceeded to destroy another of the peninsulas koala food trees. Residents had given alternatives to destroying this tree, but the shire chose to ignore them all. Vale Manny the manna gum.

Koala habitat lost

I am absolutely disgusted with Mornington Peninsula Shire Council after they cut down the manna gum on Balnarring Beach Road. Who sanctioned this action? Whoever it was, they should lose their job.

Council makes a big noise about sustainability and protecting the environment when its actions do the opposite.

It can now be pleased that it has taken down a tree that provided habitat and food for koalas. Will council be happy when it drives the koalas to extinction because their habitat has been destroyed? There should be consequences for this dreadful action.

Times have changed

The letters on Hastings development bring back memories of my State Rivers days when we looked after Mornington Peninsula’s water supply, swamps, Frankston’s Kanaook Creek (which was getting polluted from adjoining properties’ drainage) and installed the walling at the mouth to stop erosion.

Arguments over Hastings industrial development proposals and effect on the mangroves was in full swing, particularly when a strip of land was acquired with a view to extending the railway line for Hastings industry. I remember visiting the mill producing steel sheets, which must have been in the 1970s or 1980s.

On the need for more reliable power, I remember hearing a talk and photos on the big wind power towers in the sea off Denmark (I think)

NEWS DESK

and wonder if similar towers could be erected in Western Port.

It seems odd that we sell coal and gas overseas while trying to restrict the availability to our own population which has had gas appliances installed for years. General Monash would be horrified to think that the brown coal power he helped establish at Yallourn when starting the State Electricity Commission with technical information he grabbed during WW1 when he was leading troops into Germany and aware of their brown coal plants.

It is problem when you get old and can remember how things were.

Clifftop hazard

One of the more nerve shredding short trips to be had on the Mornington Peninsula is to follow the 781 bus north on the cliff road [the Esplanade] between Ellerina Road and Lempriere Avenue. With patches of unmanaged erosion right up to the bitumen, watching the tyres of a multi-tonne bus mere inches away, is cause for sharp intakes of breath.

Stabilising tracts of verge foliage have been further hammered by tourist parking over summer, posing the question, when will VicRoads and Mornington Peninsula Shire collaborate to protect these parts with bollards, and declaration of No Parking? David Martin, Mount Martha

Hydrogen a bad deal

An important point overlooked about Japan’s intention to spend $2.35 billion exporting hydrogen from Hastings is the source of the hydrogen (“Power struggle over port” The News 28/3/23). The hydrogen would be produced from brown coal or natural gas which, during production, releases carbon dioxide. This means that the Japanese get to use the clean hydrogen and we get to keep the climate damaging carbon dioxide. Not really that much of a deal.

Happy to help

It was great to read the article about the need for more volunteer drivers to help Peninsula Transport Assist (PTA) to provide service to everyone who needs it (“Drivers needed to help others get out and about” The News 28/3/23).

I have been one of those volunteer drivers for five years and can attest to the wonderful service PTA provides to those without transport on the Mornington Peninsula and in Frankston.

Many of our clients are already stressed out when they find they suddenly need transport to a hospital or a specialist because they have had a “bad” diagnosis. Knowing they can get to the appointment and home without worry, even if they are confined to a wheelchair, makes a big difference to them.

Sometimes I have driven people home after they get the bad news. Tears may flow, but having someone from outside the family who will listen and try to understand can be of enormous help. Other clients have been taken to the ballet in Melbourne, art shows, concerts at Frankston Arts Centre, you name it, we go there.

One day you may need transport. Don’t forget many of us find we are off the road for a few weeks due to an eye operation or a hip or knee replacement. Aging spareth no man – or woman.

Bonus better spent

Last week my household, like all others across Victoria, took from our letterbox a bright orange postcard. The Victorian government is giving us a $250 “power saving bonus”. Again.

All we have to do is go online, make a simple application, and the money is ours. No matter if we’re not struggling to pay the bill, or even if we’re the wealthiest family in the state. It’s a giveaway.

This would all be very exciting if I hadn’t, just the week before, read The Guardian’s article Victoria’s social housing stock grows by just 74 dwellings in four years despite huge waiting list. It seems that even though the state government should be well into its heavily publicised Big Housing Build, only 74 desperate families have been taken off a list of tens of thousands who are waiting for a home.

Perhaps many of us who have a roof above us and electricity at hand, might think the $250 could be better spent? David

Containing costs

Though the price depends on the size of the home, many shipping container homes work out to be half the price per square foot of a conventional home (“Containing the housing crisis”

The News 14/3/23). The average price of a very basic shipping container home begins at about $15,000 for a new container with a simple fit-out and ranges to about $70,000 for a two bedroom. Typically, a cargo-worthy 20 foot container in Australia can cost you anywhere between US$1600 and US$2000. And a cargo-worthy 40ft container will cost around US $2500.

A new 40ft dry container will cost somewhere between $2500 to $4500, whereas a new 40ft high cube (HC) container will cost you around $2500 to $6000.

According to HomeAdvisor, converting a shipping container into a tiny home costs about $19,600.

Depending on the size, structure and design, a shipping container homes’ price could range from $15,000 for sale as new with a basic fit-out, to around $50,000 for a 12 metre two-bedroom container. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Book traces 26 years of women’s action

THE Southern Women’s Action Network (SWAN) launched the book When Women Meet which chronicles its history, on 19 March at Mount Martha House.

Meeting at the same location where SWAN had its beginnings, the room was full of women who had experienced the SWAN journey that began more than a quarter of a century ago.

When Women Meet was authored by Diane McDonald together with Judith Couacaud Graley and SWAN members. The book records the journey of a community-based volunteer-led women’s organisation established on the Mornington Peninsula in 1996.

SWAN was created to increase women’s active involvement in community decision-making and to empower them to take action to address social justice and equity concerns.

The book was launched by Dunkley MP Peta Murphy who congratulated SWAN on its “impressive history” and commitment to social justice and human rights issues and for fighting against gender discrimination and family violence.

Murphy highlighted the number of outstanding female speakers who had addressed SWAN meetings and said how fortunate she and the guest speaker for the current meeting, Jean Ker Walsh, the co-convener of Grandmothers for Refugees were to be part of SWAN’s celebration.

McDonald, who joined SWAN three years ago, said she had been surprised to find that its story was not well known and, in helping write the book, “wanted to highlight their extraordinary

MEMBERS of SWAN at the book launch. Picture: Yanni

achievements - so often understated, and to ensure that their efforts were not forgotten in the mist of time”.

Couacaud Graley described When Women Meet as “a feisty story about empowerment, companionship and friendship”.

“Joan Kirner, the only female premier of Victoria, was our first speaker so at the book launch

I mentioned how she maintained an ongoing interest in SWAN and would be very proud of our without fear or favour history of social activism”.

SWAN facilitator Erica Churchill said it was a “great achievement” that after 26 years its members “still working together for a better, more equal society”.

“I hope the book will inspire other women to join us at SWAN to hear inspiring speakers, meet with like-minded women and refresh their enthusiasm for social justice activism,” she said. When Women Meet is available at swanwomen@outlook.com and at the next SWAN meeting to be held at Mount Martha House, 9.30-11.30am Sunday 21 May.

Et Tu, Mike Brady? Football’s Greatest Hit

AT fourteen years of age, my partner Katrina relocated from Dublin to Melbourne. It was difficult. Finding herself in Diamond Creek, she experienced a full-blown culture shock exacerbated by incessant sunlight, the threat of reptiles and, of course, Mike Brady. The first time Katrina heard ‘Up There Cazaly’, she’d no idea what a ‘cazaly’ was. As best as she could tell, ‘Up There Cazaly’ was a uniquely Australian way of saying, if not ‘up your jumper’, then up somewhere else located a short distance away. She didn’t know the half of it.

Some disputes are interminable. They endure long past the point of common sense and exhaust everyone involved. But while geo-political tugs of war get all the limelight, there are lesser-known rivalries that simmer way for decades almost without anyone noticing. Then, without warning, some small shift sees all hell, if not break loose, then ruffle its feathers and puff out its chest. I’m speaking of ‘Mike Brady Presents: The Songs of Football’s Greatest Sons’ by (somewhat unsurprisingly) Mike Brady.

Until recently, I had no quarrel with Mike Brady. Instead, my conflict was with my brother, Cameron, and our dispute centered on ownership of the Mike’s classic album ‘Mike Brady Presents: The Songs of Football’s Greatest Sons’. More than just a piece of vinyl with a collection of highly hummable but deeply specific tunes about football players, the album is the centerpiece of our shared childhood. If I’m honest, it’s possibly the album we listened to most when we

were growing up. Our father brought it home from work. He did that sometimes. When you least expected it, he’d arrive with something amazing. I can still remember the day he appeared with ‘The Smurf Song’ as a single. We played it for hours. I may have painted one of my brothers blue just to see what

would happen. It was a hugely transformative moment. Indeed, I thought that was the greatest day of my life. Until, that is, Mike Brady turned up. If I’m being honest, I’d never heard of most of the players Mike decided to honour in song. Kevin Murray, Keith Greg, Graeme ‘Polly’ Farmer and Peter Hudson were each sung about

with great gusto and although I was unfamiliar with their work as footballers, Mike’s songs transformed them into grand mythical figures. These were not men anymore but gods and heroes. The songs had high-drama, tragedy and success against the odds. The album made most operas seem as pedestrian as a trip down to the shops. It was a triumph.

We played the record often. At some point, my brother upped the ante, finding a microphone and plugging it in to the stereo, wailing along to ‘Flying High To Glory’ – a tune celebrating John Coleman – in a way that was so profoundly tuneless that our chickens stopped laying eggs for a time.

We loved the record as kids. It’s fair to say that in the history of recorded music, there’s been no other like it.

Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is all well and good, but none of the songs mention Mr. Football, Teddy Whitten. Granted, Led Zeppelin rocks like a three-legged chair but they never wrote a song called ‘Bobby Dazzler’ about South Melbourne’s three-time Brownlow medalist, Bob Skilton. More’s the pity.

In retrospect, it’s hard to believe that an album about footballers peaked at a relatively modest forty-four on the charts, especially when ‘Baby Shark’ is the world’s most-watched YouTube video. It makes no sense. But as much fun as we had, we (eventually) grew up and put Mike Brady’s masterpiece quietly to one side. There it might have remained, had Mike Brady himself not intervened.

The record belongs to my father but, for some time, my brother has

been positioning himself as the rightful heir. These manoeuvres can only be described as ‘Machiavellian’ in nature and make ‘Succession’ look like a veritable tea party by comparison. For the most part, I have suffered this with good grace, until I received a message on my phone. From Mike Brady.

It was a video. In it, Mike addressed me directly, telling me that my brother, not I, should inherit his album and that I should come to terms with this reality. I was incensed. In a futile attempt to calm down, I immediately played ‘The Smurf Song’ at full volume but it was no use. How dare he! Mike Brady’s decision to interfere with the internal affairs of the broader McCullough family was nothing short of an outrage. I’d half a mind to tell him to take his opinions and shove them fair up his Cazaly.

Cam, on the other hand, is cock-ahoop. He believes that enlisting Mike Brady to adjudicate our petty squabble is the ultimate power move. He may be right. But although he may one day have possession of ‘Mike Brady Presents: The Songs of Football’s Greatest Sons’, there’s one thing he doesn’t have – a turntable on which to play it. I’ll only say that if it stops him from singing along, it’s for the best. I’m sure Mike would agree with that much.

Frankston school picnic a children’s treat

AT the close of last year the school children were promised “the best of picnics and sports,” as a reward for a good year’s work and especially for their success in gaining merit and qualifying certificates, and right well was the promise honored, for last Thursday will long be remembered as a day of days.

This fine result was due to perfect organisation by the staff, and a hard-working committee of ladies of exceptional ability, backed up by generous donations from the parents and child-loving friends.

The contest, began at 10 o’clock and continued through the day with breaks at 11.30 for lunch and races; 2.30 for ice creams and a first-class Punch and Judy show, by “Millar”; 4 o’clock for tea; 5.30 for lollies, grapes, apples, etc., and at 6 o’clock for a nut scramble.

In addition to prizes won every child received a gift.

A commendable feature of the day was the precision with which each child knew, and kept, its allotted seat, under the generous shade of the pine trees, during the distribution of the foods at the several sittings.

Evidently a rehearsal had taken place the day before.

At the close the head master, Mr. Jennings, publicly thanked Mrs. Rogerson, Mrs. Amor, Mrs. Evans and the committee for their hard work, the superior quality of the food provided and their fine organisation.

He also thanked Mr. Lind, who had so ably helped him in the sports from early morning to the end.

The children then gave such ringing

Call

cheers for their benefactor as must have wide-opened the eyes of the startled owls in the pines.

Two important events have yet to be contested – the swimming championship for boys and girls.

For the former, Mrs. Amor has presented a watch, and for the latter a gold medal has been given by Mr. Lind.

***

THE first ball of the season was given by the Hastings Football Club in the Public Hall at Hastings on Monday evening.

The event was splendidly organised by the club’s secretary, Mr. H. Haddock, and its members, and the result fully justified the pains taken.

A record crowd attended, so that by 10 o’clock the floor was fully taken up by couples whose only concern in life seemed to be “On with the dance!”

It was a gay scene, and old and young were equally happy, as oldtime dances followed the modern jazz.

The floor was in splendid condition, and non-dancers standing round the doors, as they listened to Miss Romeo, the pianist, regretted longingly the neglect of their education in their early youth.

The streamer and confetti dance completed the scene of gaiety. A good supper and ice cream followed, allowing for a breathing space to prepare for the latter half of the programme, which was carried to 3 o’clock in the morning.

Mr. Arthur Howell, as master of ceremonies, kept a tight rein on each dance, even the waltzing competition not escaping comment.

Such control as this must lead to a

much improved standard of dancing.

The winners of the waltzing competition were Miss D. Stanford and Mr. Cooage.

The one-step competition went to Miss R. Stanford and Mr. Martinoja.

In stating that the takings for the night were over £22, Mr. Haddock wished specially to mention the attendance rendered by the ladies. ***

AN application from Mr. Norman Clements read at the Council meeting today brought up the question as to whether Wells Street should be considered as a residential or a business street.

Mr. Clements owns a 60ft. allotment in Wells Street, on which is erected a cottage. He asked permission to subdivide the allotment into two blocks of 30ft. each, as he had a prospective purchaser of the vacant portion who was desirous of erecting a lock-up shop on the block.

Cr. Longmuir favored nothing less than 40ft. There was plenty of land in Frankston.

Cr. Alden: You will find lock-up shops in Bourke Street with a frontage of only 10ft.

Cr. Mason considered that Wells Street should be considered as a business street, and he moved that Mr. Clements’ application be granted. Seconded by Cr. May and carried. ***

THE attention of the Country Roads Board is to be drawn to the sharp turn at Strahan’s corner, on the Pt. Nepean Road, near Mornington, as several motoring mishaps have occurred there in recent years.

The traffic on the road is heavy, and

the turn is too sharp for motors.

***

CLAUDE Parsons, of Mornington, met with a peculiar accident by falling upon a darning needle, which entered his stomach and placed him in a critical condition.

Dr. E. J. Somers had to operate to remove the needle.

Parsons was walking from one room to another with the needle in his hand, and tripped and fell upon it.

***

THE Prime Minister (Mr Bruce), who has been on a visit to Sydney, where he was accorded a great reception, returned to Melbourne on Thursday.

He will officially declare the Mount Eliza public hall open tomorrow, at which gathering there is expected to be a large attendance.

***

MISS Lena Werner, of Frankston, sailed by the Omar for Europe today, sailing via Colombo, Egypt, Naples, Toulon, Gibraltar and Plymouth.

***

“THE Standard” Delayed – Owing to a slight mechanical trouble in the intertype machine, which could not be repaired until this morning, owing to the holidays, the publication of this paper has been seriously hindered today.

With a little effort, however, we have been able to keep faith with our readers, though two pages less than usual.

***

TWO boys, 14 years of age, named George Steele and Matthew Madden, of Camberwell, who were staying at Mount Martha, had a narrow escape from drowning.

They went out to sea in a boat, which they took from the beach, and were soon lost to sight.

A fisherman (Mr. Whitehead) made a search for them, and it was with considerable difficulty that he took the boys from the boat in a heavy sea.

***

E. T. BYRON, formerly amateur champion of New South Wales, and subsequently a professional rider in America, who, competed at the Frankston sports on Monday last has challenged Ken Ross over five miles at the Exhibition tomorrow night. Byron is hopeful of succeeding where Jack Fitzgerald and Harris Horder have failed.

***

MR. Mason, of the Corowa “Free Press,” one of the principal newspapers in the Riverina, has been spending a short holiday at Frankston with his brother, Cr. W. P. Mason, J.P. ***

THE Frankston Pictures Co. Ltd. will present Dorothy Dalton, supported by Milton Sills, in “The Woman That Walked Alone” at Saturday’s pictures. In addition to an Arrow comedy, featuring Eddie Barry and Vera Reynolds, Justine Johnstone will be starred in “A Plaything of Broadway.”

***

THE Gippsland & Northern Cooperative Co. will conduct a clearing sale on Mr. J. Finch’s property at Seaford on Thursday next.

The list includes 120 cattle (including 30 milking cows), 300 sheep, 9 horses, and general farming plant. ***

Serious injury halts opening round clash

MPNFL

DIVISION ONE

LANGWARRIN received a harsh introduction to the top division last Saturday.

Division one premiers Frankston YCW played Langwarrin at Lloyd Park. Langwarrin went all of 2022 without defeat, but faced a significant challenge in the Stonecats in their 2023 season opener.

Frankston YCW put Langwarrin to the sword. The Kangaroos only kicked five goals all day, and were defeated 5.7 (37) to 14.13 (97).

Josh Patullo and Christian Tsiampas both kicked four goals for the Stonecats. Luca Goonan also impressed. Some poor goalkicking saved Pines from a huge defeat against Mt Eliza last Saturday.

Mt Eliza led Pines by a goal at halftime. The Redlegs piled on the pressure in the second half, but failed to make the Pythons pay on the scoreboard.

Mt Eliza kicked 5.20 (50) for the afternoon. Although it should have been by more they still managed to defeat Pines, who scored just 3.4 (22).

A fast start secured Frankston Bombers a good win over Bonbeach in their

season opener.

The Bombers booted six goals to two in a first-quarter blitz. Bonbeach wasn't able to get back in the contest.

The Bombers kept the Sharks at arm’s reach, and eventually ran out 9.7 (61) to 14.9 (93) winners.

Khan Haretuku and Lachlan Robinson scored three goals each for the victors. Harrison Prior was named best on ground.

DIVISION TWO

A SERIOUS injury forced the season opener between Karingal and Mornngton to be abandoned last Saturday.

Play was halted in the second quarter after a serious injury to Bulls player Reuben Hanson.

Karingal shared an update on Hanson after the game. He was taken to hospital by ambulance, and was diagnosed with a broken collarbone. He avoided any other major damage.

The club says Hanson is expected to miss up to eight weeks.

Devon Meadows sent a statement to the rest of the competition with a big win over Pearcedale on Saturday.

It was a dream start to the season for Devon Meadows. They debuted star signing Paddy Ryder in front of their home crowd, and dispatched Pearce-

dale with ease.

Pearcedale, who welcomed former Collingwood and Brisbane Lions star Dayne Beams to the side for the first time, didn’t score a goal until after three-quarter-time. They ended up succumbing to a comprehensive 14.15 (99) to 5.7 (37) defeat.

Dean Kent was among Devon Meadows’ best. Ryder also played well. Hastings also secured a comfortable win to start their 2023 season in style. They defeated Seaford by 53 points14.10 (94) to 5.11 (41).

Crib Point had a good day at home on Saturday. They overcame a poor start to upset Somerville.

The Magpies scored just one behind during a cagey opening quarter. They scored five goals in the second quarter to get back on top.

Wayward kicking ended up costing Somerville. They scored one goal and six behinds in the final term.

Crib Point emerged from the hardfought contest victorious - 10.6 (66) to 6.13 (49). Warwick Miller booted four goals for Crib Point. Round one concludes this Friday. Chelsea hosts Edithvale-Aspendale, and Tyabb will host Rye.

Spivey seals Mentone victory

SOCCER

A MARCUS Spivey strike was enough for Mentone to emerge victorious in Saturday’s local derby against State 5 rival Seaford United.

Mentone’s talismanic scorer hit the target in the 17th minute after a move that typifies his team’s style under head coach Jason Grieve.

When Mentone wins possession its great strength is its ability to go forward quickly.

Spivey, Tyler Pollard and Frankie Varsamis form a combination of finishing, guile and pace and the decisive move on Saturday was set up by Pollard who was on the end of a long ball from Zaidan Allie on the left.

Pollard rolled the ball into the path of Spivey on the right and he gave Seaford keeper Bailey Caulfield no chance with a low strike from inside the area.

The home team’s custodian was deputising for injured number one Hayden Hicks who was one of eight first teamers missing through injury or unavailability.

While Varsamis was taunting and teasing opponents down the left his Seaford counterpart Andrew Packer was making life hard for Mentone’s defence but the home team’s inability to land a knockout blow on its opponent proved the difference on the day.

In NPL2 Langwarrin lost its second game of the season when it went down 2-1 to Preston Lions in front of a large crowd at Lawton Park last weekend.

The home side led at half-time thanks to a dreadful clearance from Preston keeper Sebastian Matosevic which was met first time by Langy captain Rogan McGeorge whose pass enabled Lenny Gregory to turn and slot home from close range.

Langy keeper James Burgess was put to the test in the second half and made some fine saves but he was powerless to stop Preston equalising in the 73rd minute.

An excellent reverse pass from John Roberts set up overlapping Dalibor Markovic on the left of the area and he squared the ball across the face of goal for a Jordan Figon tap-in.

And Figon’s second in the 83rd minute settled the issue.

He outmuscled Lucas Portelli on the left of the area then turned and from a one-on-one with Burgess struck the ball inside the far post.

In State 1 Mornington made it backto-back wins with Friday night’s 3-1

home success over Bentleigh United Cobras.

A first half double from star striker

Rory Currie gave the Seagulls a 2-1 half-time lead and Mehdi Sarwari struck home the third goal after a couple of blocked attempts inside the area in the 74th minute.

In State 2 Skye United scored its first win of the season with a 1-0 away result against Brandon Park.

Skye keeper Jonathan Crook made a series of fine saves in the first half while defenders Alex Van Heerwarden and Brett Heskins also contributed to the clean sheet.

Skye had a mountain to climb when striker Leo McLeod was sent off in the 69th minute but against the run of play Mark O’Connor’s cross in the 87th minute was headed home by Heskins for the winner.

Peninsula Strikers went down 3-1 to Mazenod at Centenary Park on Saturday.

The visitors struck seconds into the contest after Ahmad Tabbara turned the ball over and Jamie Mammino thumped it home.

A Calvin Delaney error in the 7th minute saw Mazenod increase its lead as Jeremy Alleaume broke through and made no mistake from a one-on-one with Strikers keeper Ben

Caballero.

Strikers spurned a series of chances – including a contentious first-half handball after Campbell Steedman had scored – but eventually broke through in the 61st minute with a superb Riley Anderton header from a pinpoint free-kick from Huss Chehimi.

But a Delaney own goal shortly after restored the visitors’ two-goal cushion.

Frankston Pines lost for the first time this season going down 2-0 away to Hampton East Brighton last weekend.

Pines gaffer Trevor Johnston gave a blunt assessment of his team’s display.

“We were really poor and didn’t deserve anything out of it,” he said.

In State 4 Somerville Eagles continued their fine start to the season with a 3-0 home win over Noble Park on Saturday.

Marcus Anastasiou opened the scoring early getting on the end of Ronnie Krishnan’s low cross from the right.

Tom Simmons’ brilliant strike in the 36th minute made it 2-0.

Somerville continued to create chances after the interval and was rewarded in the 85th minute when Tom

Picture: Darryl Kennedy

Simmons beat the offside trap and squared the ball to substitute Xavier Apela to tap into an open net.

It was Apela’s first senior goal and he had a day to remember scoring a hat-trick in the 8-1 reserves’ victory.

Chelsea had to settle for a point when it drew 1-1 at home to Lyndale United on Friday night.

Both goals came in the first half with Tim Koulouris putting Chelsea ahead in the 28th minute with a back post header from Adrian Pace’s corner.

The leveller came when Lyndale winger Anthony Zagami cut in and unleashed a shot that dipped and beat Chelsea keeper Tom Carter.

Lyndale’s Jaime Cerqueira was sent off for abusive language in the 64th minute but neither side could break the deadlock.

Baxter started the season with high hopes but after three games it remains winless and on Friday went down 5-0 away to White Star Dandenong.

In State 5 Rosebud stayed on top of the ladder thanks to a 3-0 win over Casey Panthers at Olympic Park on Saturday evening.

It’s a remarkable turnaround in the club’s fortunes given that it only won two games throughout last season.

Noah Musso’s hat-trick under-

pinned Saturday’s success and a fiery second half saw Rosebud’s Joe Donnelly and Casey Panthers’ captain Backtash Barakzoi both sent off.

Aspendale had a resounding 7-2 home win over Pakenham United last weekend while Mount Eliza lost 5-3 at home to Bunyip District.

Aspendale’s scorers were Gianluca Bozzo 2, Dom Paul 2, Kieran Hughes, Matthew Leggett and substitute Jarren Kilmartin.

Mount Eliza coach Bryce Ruthven was disappointed with the manner in which his side went 3-0 down in the first 19 minutes as well as the approach of the opposition.

“We cost ourselves the game conceding two average goals and giving away a penalty that was arguably one of the cleanest tackles I’ve seen in State 5 this season and was never a penalty,” Ruthven said.

“I thought our second half was excellent and showed what we’re about as a team but it's a learning curve for our young squad about how to manage State League football against sides that aren't interested in playing football.

“We have two new signings coming in this week and another after Easter so our squad will strengthen again before our next game after the bye and add quality State League experience to our side.”

Next weekend only NPL competitions will play league fixtures while State League clubs have a break over Easter.

However Mornington will contest its Australia Cup fourth preliminary round away tie against FC Clifton Hill on Saturday while Pines and Skye contest their respective ties on Wednesday this week.
