Green light for Willum Warrain’s future Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association can “dream bigger now” after Mornington Peninsula Shire Council last week adopted a $5.7 million master plan.

The plan will see the Willum Warrain Gathering Place at Hastings transformed with a new entrance building, gathering place, community auditorium, dedicated elders’ area and a community hub with cafe.

The shire is proposing to extend the Pound Road site to 2.4 hectares and commit to a 30-year lease.

“We are absolutely thrilled – we’ve known it was coming, but to get this concession is a complete validation of everything we’ve been doing here for seven years”, men’s business executive officer Peter Aldenhoven said.

“We are helping mobs recover from the trauma of having their communities decimated – lost history – lost culture – lost family – and, at the same time, preserving the local knowledge of those communities by educating the next generation.”

Each year, thousands of visitors come to Willum Warrain for its cultural immersion tours and the bush nursery education programs designed for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.

“We can now dream bigger; now that we have council permission, we can start to expand our site to meet the need,” Willum Warrain program coordinator Karsten Poll said.

The mayor Cr Despi O’Connor said the shire was supporting Willum Warrain “to achieve self-determination, and we encourage our community to find out more about how the vision can benefit our whole community.”

The association is calling for financial support through social media to pay for the plan’s first stage.

Jono Herrman, of supporters group HG Children’s Foundation, said money would be raised through the bush nursery and cultural tours, as well as donations and government grants.

“Much of the philanthropic and government grant monies are either matched funding or are looked upon favourably if Willum Warrain can show local support,” he said.

An online donation drive to raise $150,000 is at tinyurl.com/FundWW “This will not only support the

grant-seeking attempts, but allow [a start to] phase one which focuses on a new meeting space and a new entrance building, which in turn, will fast track local employment opportunities for local Indigenous peoples.”

Mr Herrman said it was intended that within five years the centre would welcome 10,000 visitors annually and be home to 3000 members seeking

“healing and community”.

The shire says it will support Willum Warrain’s grant application to the Aboriginal Victoria.

“As our area grows, so does the need for our local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community to gather and explore identity and cultural heritage,” Cr Lisa Dixon said.

“We support the [association] to re-

alise their funding goals and we hope to see the master plan achieved.”

A statement on the shire’s website says: “We’ve listened to our local Aboriginal community and we’re supporting their self-determination as identified in the reconciliation action plan.

“An investment in Willum Warrain is an investment into a destination for reconciliation and the hope and healing for Aboriginal people living on the Mornington Peninsula.”

Backyard net laws protect wildlife LAWS to protect wildlife from getting caught up in backyard fruit tree netting come into effect on 1 September.

The new regulations are “well overdue and would save native animals’ lives”, Wildlife Victoria CEO Lisa Palma said.

The new regulations require the mesh size of tree netting, either used or sold, to be 5mm by 5mm or less at full stretch. They apply specifically to households – not commercial growers who are already compliant.

The penalty for using fruit netting that does not fit the specification will be $3303 or $660 for advertising or offering it for sale for household fruiting plants.

A quick check is to make sure holes in a net are too small to poke your finger through. This sized net is safe for flying foxes and other small animals.

“We are pleased to see the new laws come into effect given that there is a significant detrimental impact on our wildlife as a result of the wider aperture netting that a lot of people use on their backyard fruit trees,” Ms Palma said.

Animalia’s Michelle Thomas said caring for wildlife – especially flying foxes – injured when caught in nets was a “huge pull on our resources”.

“The ban is something we have all been fighting for,” she said.

Animalia rescuers are often called out to rescue flying foxes caught in nets in the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston areas.

“We have 20 rescuers who are on call and it is better if residents call us before attempting to release badly

entangled flying foxes,” Ms Thomas said.

“We never release them straight away because it can take weeks for flying fox wings to heal after suffering tears caused by the nets.

“Sadly, they very often have to be euthanised.”

That means two animals are lost as their young, alone in the bat colony, are left to starve.

Ms Thomas said the bats were key pollinators of eucalypts needed for Australia’s timber industry. “They just want to feed on gum nectar which is very nutritious and when we remove large gums that’s when we

create problems,” she said.

“The flying foxes resort to eating fruit from peach, plum or pear trees.”

Ms Thomas said it was disheartening when domestic growers wrapped nets around their trees yet left fruit rotting on the ground. “I tell them to put paper bags around the clumps of fruit they want and let the bats have the rest,” she said. “Then it’s a win/ win.”

She said fruit protected that way was safe from pests, such as caterpillars, as well as rain damage.

Ms Thomas said the logging industry also required the natural services of flying foxes which pollinated eucalypt forests devastated by the 2019-20 bushfires.

“The flying foxes roam up and down the east coast pollinating the blue gums and iron barks helping them recover from the fires,” she said.

“If we want a timber industry we have to look after them.”

Ms Thomas warned domestic fruit growers to avoid cheap imported nets that did not comply with the spirit or intent of the law, and which would put them at risk of a fine.

During 2020, Wildlife Victoria responded to 285 cases of wildlife caught in domestic fruit tree netting.

These comprised 120 grey-headed flying-fox cases, 35 magpie cases, 19 rainbow lorikeet cases, 16 sulphur crested cockatoo cases and eight ringtail possum cases.

“We believe our case numbers are just the tip of the iceberg, ” CEO Ms Palma said.

Peninsula residents can call Animalia for help, or to donate, on 0435 822 699.

End of ‘emergency’ puts renters at risk

Getting creative during lockdown LORI Windle enjoys painting at the Balnarring Community Pop In Hub in the village.

The hub also holds such activities as a playgroup, meditation, percussion, singing, salsa dancing, acting, and various special interest groups.

The hub is at Shop 27 Balnarring Village.

A DECISION by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal has tenant advocates worried more renters will become homeless now that the moratorium on evictions has ended.

At the height of the COVID-19 crisis last year, the state government introduced emergency measures to protect renters, including bans on evictions where renters were unable to pay their rent because of the pandemic.

These measures proved crucial not only in ensuring renters could keep a roof over their heads but in reducing the spread of the virus by limiting the movement of people.

However, the protections ended in late March leaving many renters, unable to return to work due to rolling lockdowns and at risk of homelessness.

“The protections may have gone away, but the virus has not,” Peninsula Community Legal Centre CEO Jackie Galloway said. “This leaves families in our area vulnerable to eviction where rent has gone unpaid due to a drop in income. It also comes at a time when rental providers are increasing rents, especially on the peninsula, as people flee the city in the wake of COVID-19.”

The legal centre runs a tenancy assistance and advocacy program where staff are seeing an increase in rent-related debts.

“In the past it was unusual to see rent arrears accrue beyond a couple of thousand dollars,” Ms Galloway said. “Now we are increasingly seeing renters with arrears of over $10,000. Many people have limited means to pay their rent and nowhere to go as rents are rising and housing is being snapped up by the sea-changers.”

The legal centre has operated throughout the pandemic and says it has helped many renters ne-

gotiate reductions with their landlords. However, with the crisis still unfolding, renters needed ongoing protection.

“With every lockdown comes the very real fear of how to pay your rent,” Ms Galloway said.

“There is no longer a mechanism to get rents reduced, and the rental relief grant is no longer available.

“With VCAT now saying that renters can be evicted for rent arrears accrued during last year’s lockdowns, renters are at a heightened risk of homelessness with little means to repay their debt.”

Ms Galloway says renters cannot be evicted without an order from the tribunal. “If anyone receives a Notice to Vacate for rent arrears or any other reason they are urged to contact us for advice,” she said.

Contact the centre on 9783 3600.

‘No rough sleepers’ THE Frankston City Strategic Housing and Homelessness Alliance has launched a project to wipe out rough sleeping by 2023.

Frankston mayor Kris Bolam said that local rough sleeping homelessness has grown by 388 per cent since 2016, and that the initiative would help to fix this.

“Frankston Zero – based on international best practice models to end homelessness – has reoriented the local service system to deliver a coordinated response for people sleeping rough,” he said. Frankston Zero would bring together all services and sectors needed “to achieve functional zero homelessness for rough sleeping in Frankston City by 2023”.

With Stephen Taylor

Top jockeys fined, banned FOUR top jockeys who were fined last week for breaching COVID-19 restrictions have been suspended by Racing Victoria for the Spring Racing Carnival.

Leading jockeys Jamie Kah and Ben Melham, who were scheduled to ride in the Group 1 Menzies Stakes at Mornington last Saturday, as well as Ethan Brown and Celine Gaudray, were nabbed after a complaint about a “noisy party” at a property in Tallis Drive, midnight Wednesday 25 August.

On Saturday stewards also hit a fifth jockey, Mark Zahra, with a threemonth ban for attending the party.

Senior Sergeant Kirby Tonkin, of Mornington police, said six people at a four-bedroom Airbnb rental with a pool and spa had each been fined $5452 for breaching the Chief Health Officer’s directions, which included breaking the 9pm curfew and being outside the five-kilometre limit.

He said the property owner “had been spoken to and exonerated” because of information she had received and would be taking the home off the short-stay market.

Mornington Peninsula Local Area Commander Inspector Terry Rowlands said police had also issued four fines of $10,900 each to owners of short stay rentals at Mornington, Rye, Rosebud and Sorrento over the past week for renting their premises to people breaching regulations.

“I’d like to remind everyone that police will be issuing fines to those who choose to flout the current direction of the Chief Health Officer,” he said.

They are liaising with the Office of the Racing Integrity Commissioner.

Superintendent Steve White said the actions “reinforce that police are prepared to investigate any and all allegations of corruption in sport”.

“Victoria Police has long led the way in terms of investigations into allegations of corrupt and illegal activity within sport and racing, and this investigation again highlights this,” he said.

“Victorians are well known for their love of sport but equally they want to know that the playing field is fair and honest.”

Virtual dog breeder

Men sought over liquor theft POLICE are keen to learn the identities of these two men in relation to the theft of liquor at Somerville, Thursday 5 August.

Anyone who knows them is urged to call Hastings police 5970 7800 or online at bddy.me/3y9IsFV and quote incident number 210266479.

Racing, drugs investigation EQUINE vet Adam Matthews and Mornington trainer Lisa Enright have been questioned by police as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged corruption and illegal activity within the state’s racing industry.

Detectives from the sporting integrity intelligence unit executed warrants at Keilor East, Mornington and Wallan from 8.25am on Wednesday, arresting a 38-year-old Keilor East

man and a 47-year-old Mornington woman.

Police said their investigation was focused on the alleged use of illegal substances in Victorian racing and corrupt betting practices, as well as the use, possession and trafficking of cocaine.

Detectives from the sporting integrity intelligence unit spent Wednesday questioning the pair before both were released without charge.

Investigations are continuing.

The detectives were assisted by Racing Victoria, Harness Racing Victoria and Greyhound Racing Victoria.

POLICE have arrested and charged a Blairgowrie woman who allegedly posed online as a dog breeder and tricked potential buyers into believing they were about to take ownership of French and English bulldog pups.

The 42-year-old woman, arrested Thursday 26 August, is alleged to have fleeced six unwitting buyers of a combined $46,000 over the past 15 months.

Detective Senior Sergeant Eddie Lagoner, of Somerville CIU, said the woman had been charged with five counts of deception and bailed to appear at Dromana Magistrates’ Court in February.

The bogus online “sale” of the pups was exacerbated by lockdown restrictions making it harder for the potential buyers to visit them.

Detective Lagoner said no actual dogs were involved in what was described as a “sophisticated deception involving extensive emails, correspondence and images between the parties”.

“The people thought they were getting a dog when there wasn’t one,” he said.

Alleged ramming A CAR allegedly stolen from outside a house at Dromana on the weekend was involved in a police pursuit and alleged ramming of two police cars.

Police will allege a 39-yearold Cranbourne man deliberately reversed the 2002 Audi into two police cars, one in Hall Road, Carrum Downs and the other in Eramosa Road East, Somerville, before driving off towards Cranbourne.

Police arrested the man on Peninsula Link after bringing the car to a halt using stop sticks, early Saturday 28 August.

Senior Detective Clayton Beckhouse, of Somerville CIU, said the man was to face Frankston Magistrates’ Court yesterday (Monday 30 August) charged with multiple offences, including theft of a car, damage to emergency service vehicle, dangerous driving, and reckless conduct endangering life.

Over the barrier CFA crews took two hours to rescue an elderly man after his car crashed over a barrier and ran down a cliff at Mount Martha last week.

Units from Mount Martha, Mornington, Dromana, the city, as well as the high angle rescue team from Dandenong, rushed to the scene at the intersection of Hearn Road and the Esplanade, 5.45pm, Tuesday 24 August.

Ambulance Victoria said the man in his 80s was assessed at the scene and found to be in a “stable condition”.

He was taken to Frankston Hospital for further observation.

Mount Martha CFA Captain Travis Hutchins said the man’s Kia Sportage pulled up in heavy scrub 10 metres down the cliff.

NEWS DESK Share views on pets COMMUNITY consultation on Mornington Peninsula Shire’s 2021 draft Domestic Animal Management Plan closes Wednesday 22 September.

The plan outlines the shire’s approach to animal management services, programs and strategies across the peninsula over the next four years.

Victorian councils are required to produce a Domestic Animal Management Plan every four years.

The focus of the plan will be on communication around responsible pet ownership; promoting compliance and enhancing education and improving animal welfare outcomes.

It will focus on supporting a consistent approach to leash-free and dog prohibited areas; increasing pet registration and opportunities for lost pets to be reunited with their owners; decreasing dog waste in public places and reducing dog attacks.

“We recognise the value of pet ownership,” the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor said.

“Pets can benefit our health and wellbeing in many ways. As pet owners it is important to look after the welfare of our pets.

“We also have a responsibility to make sure our pets don’t have a negative impact on our local environment and community.”

Pet owners or those interested in the plan are invited to provide their feedback to help shape the final plan.

Pet owner vows to ensure meat is safe Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

‘Never again’: Molly and her ‘best friend’ Scarlett before tragedy struck. Pictures: Supplied

A MOUNT Eliza woman struggling to come to grips with the death of her dog after it ate contaminated meat is focused on “ensuring it never happens again”.

Molly Patton, 28, lost her “best friend” Scarlett to the effects of the indospicine toxin in meat believed to have been sourced from the Northern Territory and bought locally.

Ms Patton said she had been unaware that the “kangaroo” meat she had thought she was buying from her regular wholesaler had been mixed with beef and horse meat contaminated by indospicine, which is highly toxic to dogs.

Scarlett and Ms Patton’s parents’ dog, Ruby, became ill and Scarlett stopped eating. Placed on a feeding tube at a Mornington vet hospital she declined slowly and, within one month, suffered heart failure.

Ruby recovered slowly after eight days in intensive care.

Ms Patton and her family spent more than $16,000 trying to save their dogs’ lives – and all because the meat she bought was not labelled correctly and was not safe.

So far, 26 dogs have died in Victoria – including at least two on the Mornington Peninsula – and 65 hospitalised after the natural toxin was found in their blood and livers (“Deadly pet poison may reappear” The News 24/8/21).

“Right now, nothing is preventing [it happening again] – no laws, no regulations,” Ms Patton said.

“The rules around pet food sit conveniently in the grey areas between existing regulatory bodies – governed by none and palmed off to the too hard basket again and again.

“This loophole is what allowed an entire supply chain to fail the bare minimum of expectations: to sell what they advertise and ensure it is safe. They will move on from this unscathed, untarnished. I will not.

And the 60-plus families left devastated by this spate of negligence will not.”

Ms Patton said she had not been notified of any mandatory meat recall to warn other families and prevent more dogs from dying.

“It’s possible that this meat has gone on to be used in canned dog food/frozen dog food, and may still be in someone’s freezer, yet to be served to their dog,” she said.

Agriculture Victoria and PrimeSafe last week finalised their investigation into the cause of the “dog liver disease cluster” without any hint of penalties.

They reminded dog owners not to feed their pets any fresh or frozen raw meat sourced from Maffra District Knackery, from 31 May to 3 July. “Neither cooking nor freezing will destroy the toxin that remains in the meat. Please contact your supplier to confirm the source of your pet meat.”

The authorities said voluntary withdrawals and consumer level recalls “are considered to have removed indospicine contaminated pet meat from the supply chain”.

Veterinarian Dr Kelly Halls, of the Benton’s Road Veterinary Clinic, Mornington urges pet owners to dispose of any raw meat in their freezers. “You can’t be sure it is OK,” she said. “It may be contaminated.”

Dr Halls recommends owners buy only meat fit for human consumption, say, from butchers or supermarkets, to negate the risk of indospicine poisoning.

“This is a crappy situation. It’s no one’s fault. The problem has come about because of differing standards in assessing meat,” she said.

Law firm Maurice Blackburn is investigating a class action against Maffra & District Knackery seeking redress for distressed dog owners.

Senior associate Charles Noonan said the knackery had an obligation to its customers to ensure its products were free from toxins, such as indospicine, known to cause serious health issues to dogs.

“The fact that [it] may not have breached any food manufacturing laws highlights the relaxed regulation of the pet food industry but doesn’t exonerate [it] from liability for breaching its obligations to customers as a manufacturer and supplier of dog food,” Mr Noonan said.

Applications open Fire Management Contractors List 2021/22 Mornington Peninsula Shire invites applications from local contractors to be considered for our fire management contractor list.

The Shire inspects private land for fire hazards in the leadup to summer and during the declared fire danger period.

Where a fire hazard is identified, landowners are sent a fire prevention notice issued either under the Country Fire Authority Act 1958 or the Fire Rescue Victoria Act 1958 to remove the fire hazard by a specified date.

To assist owners with carrying out the work, the Shire includes a fire management contractor list with each fire prevention notice. The list will also be published on the Shire’s website.

Work required can include slashing grass and weed or vegetation removal.

Contractors must follow COVIDSafe practices and State Government advice around COVID-19 restrictions.

Counting race “CITIZEN scientists” on the Mornington Peninsula can join in Biodiversity Blitz 2021.

The challenge, between the shire and eight neighbouring councils , including Casey, Kingston, and Frankston, aims to list the most species of flora and fauna over September.

Citizen scientists can download the iNaturalist app on their smart phones, join the peninsula’s Biodiversity Blitz project group, then head outdoors next month to snap photos of flora and fauna and upload them to the app.

“We are running a competition between nine councils on who can record the most species,” the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor said. “By taking part you’ll be contributing to community science and showing the world the amazing creatures and plants your local area has to offer.

“One important action most of us can take to help conserve what makes peninsula so unique is get outdoors and enjoy nature. People who spend time in nature are more likely to act for nature.

“So, head outside, become a citizen scientist during September and help us discover the peninsula’s amazing biodiversity and local habitats by using iNaturalist.”

Biodiversity describes plant and animal life on land, in rivers and oceans.

Everyone taking part in the Biodiversity Blitz challenge will need to learn how to use iNaturalist. A beginner’s webinar is at 7pm, Thursday 2 September. Register at bit.ly/3B6DXNU. Details: mornpen.vic.gov.au/ bioblitz

No easy pass for council rules Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au AFTER months of debate, meetings behind closed doors, advice from experts and calling for public comments, Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors are again facing delays in adopting rules under which the shire operates.

The Governance Rules adopted at last Tuesday’s (24 August) meeting must again be voted on following a late night move by Cr Steve Holland.

With just minutes to spare before the new Governance Rules would have come into force (11.59pm), Cr Steve Holland lodged a notice of motion to revoke them “entirely, including and all parts as they relate to this item [3.2]”. The meeting ended at 11.30pm.

His move was up for debate last night, Monday (30 August).

Much of the debate leading up to the rules being adopted centred around last minute amendments sought by Cr Sarah Race.

Cr Race’s 11th hour bid to reword some parts of the Governance Rules were labelled as “not being thought through properly”, a “last minute ambush” and being “full of loopholes”.

A majority of councillors saw the amendments as “democracy at work” and as containing “nothing here [that is] completely out of nowhere”.

The amendments suggested by Cr Race were not revealed at the council’s 24 August public meeting until debate over Governance Rules had been running for almost one hour.

Cr Race apologised, saying home schooling, COVID and late nights had

made it “a bit of a process for me”, before explaining why she wanted to reword some of the 60 rules, including notices of motion and council meeting running times.

However, she was ”committed to the process of good governance” and added “we’re all in the same storm, different boats”.

Cr David Gill said councillors had been discussing the Governance Rules for four months and Cr Race had not raised her amendments at the premeeting before council went live online.

“Councillors opposed to this are caught on the hop,” he said.

Cr Gill said that other councillors had previously told him “we don’t like surprises, David”, particularly when it came to notices of motion, although they had to be lodged five days before a meeting.

Cr Gill described the changes sought

by Cr Race as undemocratic and following the state government’s “model” aimed at “keeping councils under control” by giving more power to chief executive officers.

“They like the executives to be in control because they can deal with them,” he said. “This is about councillors not being able to speak out on behalf of their communities.”

Cr Susan Bissinger was “incredibly disappointed” but the late introduction of Cr Race’s amendments: “It’s a last minute ambush.”

Cr Antonella Celi “could not reconcile” how the amendments had been accepted after the Governance Rules had already undergone “such a long pro0cess”.

“I’m glad this meeting is being live streamed so the community can see how the council operates,” she said.

Cr Celi said under the rules proposed

by Cr Race notices of motion being included on council agendas “could depend on the subjective mood of the CEO”.

Cr Debra Mar believed the amendments “being thrown at me this evening … sets a precedent for loopholes” and had not been thought through properly.

Cr Paul Mercurio said the changes “were not substantial” and he regretted an earlier decision that had seen the clauses in the amendment dropped.

“I realise my [past] decision was incorrect and [by supporting the amendment] I’m making amends for that,” he said.

Cr Anthony Marsh said the amendments “are not something sprung on us, they’re not new”.

“Formal notice” of Cr Holland’s recission motion was lodged before the new Governance Rules came into effect at 11.59 that night. The timing was declared by the governance director and in-house lawyer Amanda Sapolu after being pressed for a definitive answer several times during the meeting

by Cr Holland.

Half an hour later and Cr Holland’s motion could have been rejected by CEO John Baker.

Cr Holland later told his Facebook followers that the council had voted to “relegate itself and hand over significant authority to unelected bureaucrats” "Councillors will no longer be able to raise and debate important issues

unless officers allow it to be added to the agenda.

“It will come as no surprise to many of you that your council is controlled by an exclusionary voting block [sic] that refuses to consider important community issues on their merits. Caucusing and a complete disregard for public sentiment has become the norm.”

He then asked: “Do you believe the public is increasingly being shut out of local decision-making?”

Move to trim budget CR ANTHONY Marsh wants his colleagues to reconsider how much they spend on catering at meetings and functions and to redirect what’s left over to community projects.

He was set to ask at last night’s (30 August) meeting that officers pinpoint money allocated for food and drink in the 2021/22 budget, including at council meetings and briefings. Their report, to come to the 7 September meeting, will include year-to-date spending and an updated forecast over the same period, a summary of existing policy and resolutions relating to the provision of food, drink, and catering for visitors, contractors, councillors and council staff.

“This motion seeks to identify potential and appropriate reductions to the financial year 2021/22 catering budget,” Cr Marsh said. “An adjustment resulting from COVID-19 and a shift away from the more traditional format of meals provided at meetings and events would unlock previously allocated funds that could be re-purposed [for] community projects.”

Patricia Ethel Hilda (Pat) Benton 16 October 1930 – 22 July 2021 HASTINGS lost one of its most community-minded citizens when Pat Benton passed away at Opal Somerville Gardens on 22 July at the age of 90. Married to the late Ron Benton for over 60 years, Pat was the mother of Roslyn (married to Bruce), Dianne (Neil) and Stuart (Sally), grandmother of five (Warren, Rebecca, Laura, Benjamin and Thomas) and great grandmother of seven (Jack, Flynn, Lachlan, Lane, Hugh, Dustin and Ruby). The graveside service was conducted at the Tyabb cemetery in Hastings by local pastor Rod Whitford. *** Pat Benton was born in Mordialloc, the only child of Charlie and Nell Pearce. The family moved to Hastings when Pat was four and Charlie, a linesman with the PMG, was able to pursue his hobby as a fisherman. In earlier times Charlie’s father had been a fisherman based on the Mordialloc Creek.

Pat married Ron Benton at the Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Hastings, in 1951. They farmed in Tyabb and were the third generation of Bentons to farm the property since the 1850’s. In fact the name Benton is synonymous with the Mornington Peninsula as they were pioneers of this region. Benjamin John Benton brought his family from England in 1853 to start a new life in our emerging colony. Consequently, roads, schools and even a shopping centre bear the Benton name around Mornington which was where Benjamin first settled.

It was Pat’s community spirit for which she will be most remembered.

It was from her mother, Nell, who ran a host of debutant balls in Hastings in the 1950’s and 1960’s, that Pat learned the value of giving back to the community.

Pat was an accomplished amateur florist who supplied and arranged flowers at the Holy Trinity Church in Hastings for many years. She served on the Hastings, Tyabb and Somerville church guilds and was also an enthusiastic member of the local historical societies.

Pat was a committee member of the Mothers’ Club at the Tyabb Primary School and was influential in keeping the school open when the Victorian Education Department wanted to close it due to the lack of student numbers.

Both Pat and Ron graciously gave their time every week to the local Meals on Wheels service, supporting the elderly residents around Hastings with hot meals delivered to their door. Pat also provided many years of service as a Pink Lady at the Hastings Hospital, a voluntary initiative to assist around the hospital and bring cheer to the patients. For this contribution she was awarded a Mayoral Commendation in 2013.

Ron was a foundation member of the Hastings CFA, along with his father-in-law, Charlie Pearce. Pat supported Ron in the CFA and was very involved when it came to fund raising. Many would remember her as an elegant and stylish woman who received numerous Belle of the Ball and Matron of the Ball awards at CFA fund raisers in Hastings, Moorooduc and Red Hill. Pat’s sponge

cakes, provided for these events, were often the talk of the town.

Apart from her community activities, Pat was a constant supporter of her family and was regularly seen helping out in Roslyn’s Antique Bed Specialists business at the Tyabb Packing House, Dianne’s White Out of The Box business, also at the Tyabb Packing House, and Stuart’s insurance broking business, Benton Insurance Services in High Street, Hastings.

Sadly, the Hastings area has lost a true community-spirited individual.

However Pat’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew her, and we say thanks for her services to our community over a very well lived life of 90 years.

SATURDAY

THE KING’S SPEECH

SBS, 9.40pm

SUNDAY

WALTZING JIMEOIN

TEN, 4pm

Stand-up comedian Jimeoin (pictured left) proves camping isn’t so bad in this lighthearted series roadtripping from Sydney to the Whitsundays. The Irish-born funnyman has a beguilingly easygoing humour. So it’s no surprise that he tickles the funnybone in this camping, chatting and stand-up show hybrid, showcasing beautiful Aussie destinations. Joined by his comedy buddies, including Akmal and Dane Simpson, he cruises around in a stylish light-blue Volkswagen Kombi.

MONDAY

THE PASSAGE

SEVEN, 12am

This US thriller series based on Justin Cronin’s novel trilogy follows the traumatic life of Amy Bellafonte, who is to be a test subject at a secretive research facility. But the man tasked with bringing her in, isn’t so sure. Tonight, Amy (Saniyya Sidney) and Brad (Mark-Paul Gosselaar, pictured right with Sidney) – her guardian/captor – plot a way to escape from the sinister Project Noah. The Passage has received mixed reviews for its first season.

MONDAY

HYPOTHETICAL

SBS VICELAND, 8.30pm

You’re invited to join the ridiculousness with comedians Josh Widdicombe and James Acaster (pictured above). Let your mind drift, the giggles escape and a general feeling of silliness overtake you. With Acaster’s signature blend of awkward, nerdy humour and Widdicombe’s comical sidekick role, it’s the show’s freewheeling sense of fun and creativity that makes it unique. In tonight’s season one final, Guz Khan, Cariad Lloyd, David O’Doherty and Sara Pascoe join the merriment with answers for absurd hypothetical situations.

Tom Hooper’s moving tale about the littleknown relationship between King George VI and an unorthodox Australian speech therapist is a feel-good tale wrapped up in royal intrigue. Colin Firth delivers an Oscar-winning performance as the stammering king, struggling to overcome his impediment in order to present a composed, eloquent figure to the English public as World War II breaks out. Equally inspiring is Geoffrey Rush, whose quirky Lionel Logue bounces brilliantly off the reserved royal he is trying to help.

A rare work of art and a must-see.

Frankston faces gridlock without train extension The state government has a golden opportunity to fix Frankston’s public transport woes, its city centre street congestion and the lack of affordable parking – but only if it muscles up and adds to the 30-year infrastructure strategy released on 19 August by Infrastructure Victoria (“Buses better than extending electric train line - report” The News 24/8/21).

By add we mean build the long-overdue Frankston rail extension to at least Langwarrin with commuter parking for 3000 plus cars – and new stations for the proposed “next generation” of buses to dock at.

Remember, this rail project is supported by both the federal Coalition government and Labor, and already has $225 million of federal money on the table.

The state government must face reality – Frankston’s station precinct barely handles the current bus traffic of 34 buses an hour in morning peak. Imagine the gridlock of five times more buses?

Even if the government agrees with Infrastructure Victoria’s plan to introduce paid station parking, Mornington Peninsula commuters will still sprawl empty cars throughout Frankston’s CBD – because that’s where the line ends – rather than a purpose-built park and ride station away from our CBD. Backing away from extending the line in the next five years just kicks the can of Frankston’s public transport improvements down the road.

We need buses and the rail extension; it’s not an “either or” situation.

The state government is required to respond to IV’s recommendations within 12 months. This is Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke’s chance to shine a light on the bus bedlam, which occurs just outside his Young Street office window, and put Frankston’s rail extension firmly back on track.

Ginevra Hosking, CEO Committee for Greater Frankston

Hunt ‘responsible’ It was good to read [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt in regard to the Pfizer negotiations in last week’s letters page; facts must be accurate and falsehoods most certainly are to be corrected (“Correcting the record” Letters 24/8/21).

However, I am still of the belief that Mr Hunt, in his role as federal health minister, is substantially responsible for the glacial pace of the vaccination rollout in Australia, compared with the progress made by nearly all other developed nations, and the ongoing consequences which

this has created.

When I hear, for example, of another lockdown extension, of an increase in domestic violence, of another teen suicide, of another local business going to the wall, the first name I think of is Greg Hunt.

Perhaps I am mistaken to hold Mr Hunt responsible, in which case I would appreciate him replying to correct my, possibly, muddled thinking.

Jonathan Atherton, Mount Eliza

Afghanistan support Last Friday (27 August) the Afghan Marco Polo restaurant in Main Street, Mornington, put on a fundraising pick-up dinner service, with all proceeds going to an Afghanistan relief fund. It was over-committed by patrons. For those who missed out, the food was delicious.

Congratulations to the restaurant for this generous work and to all those who further supported it with supplementary donations.

It goes some way to help relieve the collective guilt we all feel about the shambles of a withdrawal, leaving many behind.

We should all make the effort to support those local businesses that support us.

John Dusting, Mornington

Garden is needed Mornington Peninsula Shire’s community safety and compliance manager stated that the location was inappropriate for a community garden as it is at the end of a small residential court, backs onto an arterial road and is a reserve set aside for drainage (“Red tape crushes community garden” The News 17/8/21).

These reasons appear to be quite unfounded, as the garden did not interfere with the residential court, but rather brought the community together, and as the drainage runs through the centre of the reserve and the garden ran alongside the fence it was not interfering with the drainage.

As for the arterial road, a walking path plus a green and vegetated strip separate the reserve from the arterial road.

It seems tragic in these times, when mental health is of real concern, that a positive and worthwhile activity should be stopped by council.

I sincerely hope council will review its laws and rules.

Georgie Gibbs, Balnarring

Timing is everything

Children who drowned often gained access to the pool area through a fence or gate which had fallen into disrepair or a gate which had been deliberately propped open.

We know families are under a lot of pressure with lockdowns in place in many parts of Australia. The demands of constant supervision are exhausting. But close supervision is the best way to protect a child from drowning.

Our research shows any distractions, such as using mobile phones or doing household chores, while children are near water increases their risk of drowning.

A pool fence in good repair can give you precious minutes when a determined toddler unexpectedly wanders off towards the pool.

Almost 40 per cent of child drowning happens over the summer months which is why now is the time to get your backyard swimming pool prepared.

Adults can access a free home pool safety checklist to make sure their pool area is safe and secure at royallifesaving.com.au/stay-safeactive/locations/water-safety-at-home Justin Scarr, CEO, Royal Life Saving

I would like to take this opportunity to reflect on the incredible work our health professionals do every day to save lives and support survivors to recover well after stroke.

We know their working environment has become more challenging amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but their dedication to the 27,400 people who will experience a stroke this year, never waivers.

I was heartened to see survivors of stroke and their loved ones around Australia also share their gratitude during Stroke Week (2-8 August), embracing the United By Stroke theme.

However, the reality is, we can have the best doctors, nurses and allied health professionals and the most advanced treatments for stroke, but time is still the critical factor. You must get to hospital quickly to access emergency stroke treatment.

After a stroke, around 1.9 million brain cells die each minute. In most cases, the faster a stroke can be diagnosed and treated, the better the chance of a good recovery. Time saved equals brain saved.

I encourage the community to keep spreading the FAST acronym. Knowing its message and sharing it with your family and friends can be the first step in saving a life and avoiding ongoing disability. It may be your own life or that of someone you love.

The FAST message will help you recognise the most common signs of stroke: Face, check their face. Has their mouth drooped?; Arms, can they lift both arms?; Speech, is their speech slurred?

Do they understand you? Time, is critical.

If you see any of these signs, call triple zero (000) straight away.

A stroke can happen to anyone at any age and research tells us the number of working age people having strokes is increasing. These people are not just numbers, they are mums, dads, sons and daughters. They have jobs and families and plans for the future.

Stroke is always a medical emergency. Please know what to do when stroke strikes. Think FAST and act fast at the first sign of stroke.

Sharon McGowan, CEO Stroke Foundation

Check pool fencing Royal Life Saving is asking all Australians with swimming pools to use the weeks before summer to check their pool fencing to protect young children from drowning.

In the past decade, more than half of all children aged 0-4 who drowned in Australia lost their lives in a backyard swimming pool.

Human rules Saturday 28 August was World Day for the End of Speciesism. Psychologist Richard Ryder coined the term speciesism in 1971, referring to a prejudice in favour of the interests of humans and against other species. He called the assumption that humans are in a totally different moral category to other species “sheer superstition” and concluded that “it may come to pass that enlightened minds may one day abhor ‘speciesism’ as much as they now detest ‘racism’. The illogicality in both forms of prejudice is of an identical sort.” [Moral philosopher] Peter Singer made the concept the heart of his seminal work on animal liberation.

Ending speciesism does not mean lowering the moral worth of any humans, but rather restoring the dignity and respect that we have stripped from animals whose lives have become living hell in laboratories, factory farms, racetracks and slaughterhouses.

Albert Schweitzer won the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize for his philosophy of Reverence for Life where he wrote: “A man is ethical only when … he devotes himself to helping all life that is in need of help.”

As Martin Luther King Jr put it “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere”.

Until we stamp out speciesism, alongside all the other toxic and unjust “isms”, we will not be able to call ourselves an ethical society.

Desmond Bellamy, PETA Australia

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Campaigning in full swing for state election Compiled by Cameron McCullough DESPITE adverse weather conditions, there was a splendid attendance at the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Tuesday night, when Mr A. K. T. Sambell, who has been brought out by the Frankston Branch of the National Federation, expressed his views.

The Shire President (Cr W. P. Mason) occupied the chair. He said that nothing in his public career had given him greater pleasure than the task of assisting the candidate in this election campaign.

Mr Sambell, who was most cordially received, spoke for nearly three hours.

The soundness of his views and his undoubted earnestness in offering what he considered practical solutions of present day political problems, kept the audience keenly interested and he was frequently applauded.

Mr Sambell said he had been approached by the National Federation to offer himself as a candidate on two former occasions but he had not then been able to accept.

On the present occasion he had been asked to nominate by the Frankston Branch of the Federation, but the reply from Melbourne had been received that his name should have been submitted earlier.

He failed to see where he had lost any time, assuming he was correct in his contention that he should first ascertain the desires of the people he proposed to represent. (hear, hear) Personally he had a very great respect for the selected candidate, but it was only fair to state that right throughout the constituency a great deal of objection had been raised to DECKING T/Pine 70x22 KD ACQ ........................... $2.70mt T/Pine 90x22 KD ACQ ........................... $3.50mt Merbau 70x19 Random ........................ $5.25mt Merbau 90x19 Random ........................ $6.50mt Merbau 140x22 Random .................... $13.25mt Spotted Gum 86x19 .............................. $8.95mt Spotted Gum 135x19........................... $15.95mt

considering that 90 per cent of the traffic using the road came from outside the Shire.

Formerly the Shire had half cost of maintenance, now it was one-third.

Chairman – Who was responsible for that reduction ?

Cr Oates – Our Engineer, the candidate. (applause) Mr Sambell said Point Nepean Road should be classed as a national road.

The Government wisely preserved the foreshore; but that meant that from Mile Bridge to Carrum boundary no revenue was derivable from the property on one side.

From Carrum to Mordialloc both sides of the road were built on, and the Councils concerned collected hundreds of pounds in revenue.

This was a case in which the State should recognise the value of the road as a State road – the same as had been done in the road from Melbourne to Geelong – and not expect a small section of the community like Seaford to bear the crushing burden of maintenance.

Mr Sambell dealt exhaustively with road policy, water supply, railway management, the electricity scheme, and other questions.

He had praise for the Lawson Government, and referred to the peculiar alliance between the Labor Party and the Farmers’ Union.

Dr Maxwell, in moving a vote of thanks to the candidate, said he would prefer to move a vote of confidence, but he believed that was not the fashion these days.

He desired to say straight out that he was an out-and-out “Sambellite.”

the selection of a candidate by two or three city men.

However, it was satisfactory to know that his candidature had some endorsement from the people of this district. (cheers) Mr Sambell said he realised that this constituency wanted a fighting representative in Parliament. He instanced the Kananook Creek as a matter in which the member for the district should refuse to take “No” for an answer.

How many years had elapsed since the district had been robbed of its beauty?

The creek had been a living thing, giving great enjoyment to the people.

What loss did its present useless condition represent in money, and yet no one seemed to be worrying about it politically.

A tangible scheme for its improvement had been formulated, but on the report of a junior officer of the department, the blue pencil had been passed through it.

The matter was not going to stop there. (Cheers.)

Mr Horsley, a senior officer, had lately said the scheme was practicable, and now the only thing lacking to secure success was the political punch.

If returned to Parliament he ventured to say that at the end of three years the people would have nothing to complain of concerning the condition of Kananook Creek. (cheers) Another matter dealt with was the rule of thumb governing road administration. The maintenance of Point Nepean road fell heavily on this Shire, particularly the Seaford Riding,

(laughter and cheers) He did not know Mr Sambell personally, but he had watched his career.

Everything was chaos when Mr Sambell came to this Shire, ten or more years ago. The wonderful improvement effected in that period spoke for itself, for if an engineer was to be held responsible for bad spots in the road he ought certainly to receive credit for the good roads.

Frankston ought to be proud of being able to bring out a man of Mr Sambell’s ability. (cheers) Cr Oates seconded the motion, and stated that while Mr Downward had referred them to the Act when they asked for relief in connection with main road maintenance, Mr Sambell had set to work and actually secured an amendment of the Act, reducing the shire’s liability from half to one-third.

If Mr Sambell could do that as shire engineer what could he not do as their member in Parliament. (cheers) The meeting closed amidst the utmost enthusiasm after Mr Sambell had answered several questions.

He said he was not a betting man and did not know much about the totalisator, but did not believe in legalised betting.

He was in favor of Scripture teaching in State Schools, on a plan approved by all denominations.

He believed in higher salaries and fewer politicians. *** IN connection with the Frankston Fire Brigade Ex-Soldier writes to the “Standard” as follows: Ring the fire bell! This was the first intimation to the people that two little

children had been lost, and readily did the Fire Brigade respond to the call.

It was noticed however, that the Fire Brigade consisted of lads in their teens. Good willing lads, admitted, doing their duty as loyal citizens.

It must be acknowledged that the township of Frankston is going ahead rapidly, but by the number of wooden houses, it hardly bears thought what would happen in the event of a big outbreak of fire.

Captain D. Petrie is to be congratulated on the manner in which he has devoted his time and energy in training these lads in firedrill, in spite of inadequate appliances and lack of support.

Throughout my travels in the world I have particularly noticed that every township is proud of its Fire Brigade, and it is considered a great privilege and honor to be admitted as a member.

It is the duty of every strong able bodied man to take a course of fire drill, to be ready when occasion arises.

I wonder what would be thought of any man were he to see his own dwelling in flames, with the possibility of loss of his dear ones, and trained men were not available to come to his assistance – he had left it to the other fellow.

I appeal to the manhood of this town to come forward and show their grit, and make our Fire Brigade what it should be – a strong body of men ready to deal with any emergency, and look upon it as a citizen’s duty, and not an obligation. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 26 August 1921

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Scammers, Slammers and Sponge Cake Ninjas

By Stuart McCullough I HAVE difficult news. This week, I received multiple phone calls from a number I didn’t recognize. When I answered, there was a recorded message declaring that Australian Border Force had intercepted a package addressed to me and had, as a result, issued a warrant for my arrest. I don’t have anything on order currently and, despite the impending threat to my liberty, my first reaction was to feel a flush of excitement and to wonder what the package was. Which is probably not what they were aiming for. After the initial excitement at the prospect of getting mail, it then occurred to me that this could be a scam.

I feel I can be forthright here without fear of offending anyone – scammers are Olympic-grade idiots. What kind of moron tries to scam people during a pandemic? Ignoring the fact it’s totally unconscionable, telling someone they’re at risk of being incarcerated and may lose the freedom to move about as they wish really lacks punch in the middle of a lockdown. It sounds more like the status quo with a change of view. And, on the upside, you no longer have to worry about cooking and laundry.

Secondly, I doubt very much that law enforcement agencies are prone to announcing their intention to arrest by way of a voicemail message. They’re far more likely to ‘DM’ you on Instagram. It’s not my area of expertise, but I always assumed those kinds of agencies placed a significant premium on the element of surprise. In my mind, they’re more likely to kick the gate in when you least expect it instead of

calling to make an appointment. That said, I don’t have a front gate to speak of; more a driveway. Maybe leaving a message is what you do when there’s no gate available to kick.

This brings me to my next point.

There’s no point trying to scam people if your central message is so terrifying

that those receiving it hang up instantly and bury the phone in the backyard.

I, for one, am having real difficulties remembering precisely where I buried mine in an adrenaline-fueled frenzy.

I’d call myself to try and find it, save that I have made the fundamental strategic error of always keeping my

phone on ‘silent’, meaning that I can only rely on it vibrating to have any idea where it is. Worse still, I don’t have another phone to call it from, meaning I’d have to use a pay phone which is about eight hundred metres away. I could call my mobile and race home, but there’s little chance that it’d still be shaking by the time I arrived.

While I’m ninety nine percent certain that these messages are the work of scammers, I find myself unable to round up and put doubt entirely out of my mind. What package are they referring to? Has my on-line shopping history resulted in unwanted attention from the authorities? The last thing I bought was a jar opener. Or, to be more specific, I bought three jar openers.

I can see why this would provoke suspicion. A jar opener is innocent enough, but what would anyone want with three jar openers? Many’s the international crime cartel that has been founded on less. Decades from now, when my intelligence file is finally declassified, I’ll discover all the toplevel meetings that were prompted by my seemingly perverse decision to get three jar openers. In truth, I thought I’d buy spares for members of my family.

But Amazon, who otherwise read your thoughts and go through your bins, isn’t interested in that level of detail.

But beyond my own checkered purchasing past, there’s the issue of the current package to consider. What could it contain that would result in a warrant for my arrest? There’s little I need. So I searched my thoughts and decided there was just one thing I longed for from overseas – sponge

cake. That’s because I have a serious sponge cake deficit in my life right now.

Once, sponge cake was the centre of my Universe. It was, without doubt, the centerpiece of every major family event growing up. My grandmother and all her sisters were total spongemasters; baking ninjas who took great pride in being able to produce a highquality sponge for any occasion. I’ve long aspired to be a sponge black belt in my own right, but am yet to do anything about it. But it’s made me think that I no longer have those people to rely on. Perhaps one of the overseas relatives intuited my needs and baked me a sponge, never dreaming it would be intercepted at sea and taken in for questioning.

I’ve noticed my father has, over the past few years, returned to sponge cake. Like any family, we flirted with cheesecake, mud cake and everything in between, but more recently he’s been buying sponge from the supermarket in half-acre quantities. While big on volume, it’s simply not the same.

To Australian Border Force; if, indeed, you have issued a warrant for my arrest, I’ve already handcuffed myself to save you the trouble. Mind you, I’ll admit I’m finding it difficult to unload the dishwasher, so if you could get a wriggle on, I’d appreciate it. And for those who might be concerned for my welfare, feel free to send me something while I’m stuck in the Big House. A sponge would do nicely. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Schwellinger United at Seaford

SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie THE strong bond among Seaford United players has underpinned the club’s promotion push this year.

That’s the view of club captain Jeremy Schwellinger.

“We’ve got good tactics, we’ve got a good coach but I think what really helps us is the camaraderie amongst the playing group,” he said.

“Everyone is friends with everyone so we’re going to play for each other.

“There’s no bad blood in this team.”

Seaford is very much a Schwellinger family affair with dad Peter head coach and younger brother Mathias joining Jeremy in the senior squad.

Although the season is in limbo Seaford United’s promotion push in State 4 South was very much in play before the latest lockdown.

“I think we exceeded expectations to be honest,” the team captain said.

“We had a lot of pre-season injuries, season-ending injuries and that really hindered our progress.

“I am 100 per cent certain that if we had played a full season and had a full squad we would have finished in the top two at least.

“We dropped points in some silly games that we shouldn’t have but let’s take nothing away from (league leader) Noble Park because they were the most consistent team.

“They’re a good team but we never got to play them.”

One of the major injuries that hit Seaford this season came in late February when Mathias Schwellinger broke his leg in an FFA Cup tie.

He eventually was given the allclear to return to action but when he came on as a second-half substitute against Chelsea in late July he didn’t last long.

“He was actually making good progress but when he had to come off in that match he had more scans and they found out that the leg wasn’t fully healed in the first place and still carried a minor break.”

The Schwellinger brothers had formed a central defensive partnership during pre-season that had been integral to the team’s progress under their father who had only taken on the head coaching role late last year.

“Actually it was my idea,” Jeremy Schwellinger said.

“I was in midfield and Matthias was

on a wing but I thought we were both tall enough, quick enough and had a really good connection to play at the back and it worked.

“It was a real shame that we didn’t get to play the season together because I think we would have had a really rock-solid season.”

Jeremy Schwellinger is 30 and four years old than his brother but many parts of their football journey have been a shared experience.

They both kicked off their careers at Lawton Park in the Langwarrin juniors while their father was playing for Melbourne Knights and Richmond among others.

Blake and Hayden Hicks for the 2014 season.

“After Old Carey I sort of stepped away from the game mainly due to work reasons then dad moved to Melton and wanted to get back into coaching so he took on the Melton Phoenix job and wanted us to go there.”

The Schwellingers weren’t at Phoenix for long.

“It wasn’t a very good team and the club wasn’t really run too well then.”

Again a break from the game ensued as Jeremy Schwellinger works with Veteran’s Affairs and the demands of his role prompted him to relocate to Epping.

Jeremy had shunned his dad’s attempts to get him to play in goal and played in his preferred role as a striker.

He played at junior Super League level for Southern Stars then spells followed at Frankston Pines, Peninsula Strikers, Old Carey and eventually Melton.

“It was at Old Carey that I moved into midfield and ever since I haven’t been allowed to go back up front,” he said.

Peter Schwellinger took over as Old Carey coach during Jeremy’s three seasons there and both brothers were joined by current Seaford teammates

When he returned to Frankston to live there had been a major change in Seaford’s coaching structure and when long-time friend Matt MorrisThomas contacted him and wanted both brothers to join him at North Seaford Reserve no wasn’t really an option.

“Matty had taken over as playercoach (May 2018) and although I was keen to get back into the game and was looking for a club at a higher level I couldn’t knock him back.”

It has proven to be the best move of his career.

“I think of all the clubs I’ve been at Seaford has the best bunch of people, really, really good people.

“I’d love to go up for all of them.

“There’s a lot of games still to play but to be honest things aren’t looking too good right now.

“I can’t see how they are going to promote teams with so many games not played.”

But if Seaford’s promotion hopes fall victim to the virus the club’s captain remains positive in his view of what can be achieved next season.

“We need to have a full squad without all these injuries.

“When we have no injuries we are very, very hard to beat and we can beat anyone in the league.

“But if we lose a couple of players through injury or suspension we struggle to replace them so yeah, we need some new players for sure because we definitely need more depth.

“Dad’s instilled a really good culture and I’m very, very confident that we’ll be successful next year.”

Meanwhile in State 2 news Peninsula Strikers won’t be playing at Centenary Park until 2022 after extensive works started last week for a complete makeover of the main pitch.

Temporary fencing surrounds the pitch as the existing fencing has been removed.

A new pitch will be laid including new drainage and a new irrigation system.

There will be new dugouts, ballstop fencing behind both goals and new fencing surrounding the pitch perimeter.

Club vice-president Steve Schreck says the club will still have use of its Ballam Park facility “should a miracle happen and there are more games played this year.”
