‘Turf war’ splits

Liberalpeninsulagroups

ACCUSATIONS of a takeover by “the Morning ton faction of the religious far right” have split sections of the Liberal Party on the Mornington Peninsula.Thescheduled annual general meeting of the party’s Dunkley Federal Electoral Conference ended within 10 minutes of its start on Wednes day 27 July, and was rescheduled and held last week by the party’s state secretariat. The former chair of the conference, Morning ton Peninsula Shire councillor and Liberal Party member for 10 years, Steve Holland, refused to attend because “the behaviour was so poor the first time around that I didn’t want to witness that again…” Holland said he ended the first AGM because “a small group of unruly members began inter jecting and heckling from their seats”. He has now warned that “good people will continue to be driven away from the Liberal Party”.“What is happening within the Liberal Party at the moment can be described as a turf war on a sinking continent,” Holland told The News “Successive state and federal election results in Victoria have highlighted the dire situation the party is in when it comes to appealing to the electorate.”StephenBatty, elected chair of the Dunkley conference at last week’s rescheduled AGM, has written to party members saying he has at tempted to contact “a small number of disgrun tled members” in a bid to discuss their concerns “and move forward as one entity”. A Liberal Party member who has asked not to be identified, said the election results at the second AGM “clearly show it has been taken over by the Mornington faction of the religious farTheright”.Liberal insider believes the moves within the local party branches have been made “so the religious right could control the finances of the Dunkley FEC to bolster the Mornington finances to elect Chris Crewther at the coming state elec tion”.The party member “understood” up to $50,000 remained “in the kitty” following the unsuccess ful federal campaign of the Liberals’ Dunkley candidate, Sharn Coombes. In his letter to Liberal Party members after being elected to chair the Dunkley conference, Batty invited them to visit Crewther’s campaign office in Main Street, Mornington.

“During the next few months, we will be organising some small boardroom luncheons and events involving special guests,” Batty said. Not mentioned in the letter was the cancella tion of an event titled A change in direction, a new horizon, originally advertised as being held in Crewther’s Main Street campaign office on Tuesday 23 InvitationsAugust.totheevent were sent out by, among others, party activist Ivan Stratov, a Mor mon and former Family First candidate.

AAA Peninsula Hearing Aid Centre was established in 1952, founded by Alan Vines, father of the now owner and director of the business, Fiona Vines. Alan built and ran a successful business before youngest daughter Fiona joined the practice after completing her Certificate 4 Diploma of Audiometry at R.M.I.T. (Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology) in 1987.

As a team, Alan and Fiona continued to build and work this successful practice together, desiring to deliver quality independent hearing services to families of the Bayside and Mornington Peninsula regions before Alan’s retirement transitioning the business to Fiona after 15 years working together. Sadly, Alan passed away in 2021. With an ever-expanding practice and client base, Fiona found the need to upgrade her clinic and did so in 1998 which saw the practice move to the current location at 18 Davey Street, Frankston. This site offers free onsite parking for all clients. Moving ahead to 2018, Taylah has continued the family tradition by being the third generation to join Peninsula Hearing after completing her Bachelor of Health Sciences and Masters of Audiology at La Trobe University, Melbourne in 2015.

In addition to seeing our trained clinicians you will be warmly greeted by our professional practice support team. Heading the team is Deb, our Practice Manager for 18 years, Ros who has been with us since 2018 and our newest administration team member, Polly, who joined this year.

RSPCA backs tighter reins for racing industry Liz liz@Bellmpnews.com.au areas and allow for law enforcement officers to intervene when required. Restricted areas will include the racetrack, mounting yard, stables and kennels, and pathways between them. The bill will ensure the same safeguards are in place at every thoroughbred, harness and greyhound race meeting and official trial meeting across the state. The racing industry in Victoria generates $4.7 billion for the Victorian economy and helps sustain over 34,900 jobs in the state. RSPCA chief executive Dr Liz Walker said horse racing was one of five priorities selected after RSPCA engaged social research agency Kan tar Public to ask a representative sam ple of 3,092 Victorian voters which animal welfare issues matter most to them. RSPCA is calling on political parties to commit to the reforms. Walker said the RSPCA was also pushing for mandatory CCTV in abattoirs and knackeries to increase transparency and monitor risks for operators, and to improve public con fidence and animal welfare. Other areas on the RSPCA’s hit list include reducing the animal shel ter quarantine period to three days instead of eight, the development of a “holistic” cat management plan, and the development of contemporary animal welfare legislation. The RSPCA is calling for a holistic, government-led and funded plan to focus on responsible cat ownership including containment and desexing to improve cat welfare, help reduce the impacts on wildlife and ensure consistent, best practice management across the state. There are an estimated 3.3 million owned and 700,000 unowned cats in Australia. Cats can start breeding at four months old and, if not desexed, one female cat and her offspring can produce up to 5000 cats in seven years.DrWalker said animal welfare leg islation in Victoria no longer reflected contemporary scientific understanding or the expectations of the commu nity – it is also outdated compared to legislation in places like the UK and the European Union. Victorians can show their support by visiting politicianseverynameanimal-advocate/rspcavic.org/become-an-rspca-andprovidingtheirandpostcode.DrWalkersaidnameaddedwillhelpconvincetosupporttheseissues.“Wewantourpoliticianstoknow that two in five people (42 per cent) indicated a political party’s commit ment to a key animal welfare reform would secure their vote for that party in the 2022 Victorian state election,” she said.

PUBLIC concern about the treat ment of racehorses has prompted the RSPCA to call for a tightening of the standards in the lead up to the state election.Thehorse racing industry - one of the largest employers on the Morn ington Peninsula - is one of five areas the animal welfare organisation has its sights set on improving, after research showed that 76 per cent of voters support legislating for better treatment of racehorses.

The animal welfare body is calling for the introduction of mandatory standards that would require owners and trainers to provide appropriate nutrition, socialisation, training and rehoming options as well as manda tory levels of training for staff.

The state government is also tack ling the horse racing industry, intro ducing legislation to Parliament on 2 August in a bid to enhance safety for all at race meetings across the state.

The move is part of Mornington Peninsula Shire commitment to sending no waste to land fill by 2030. Recovery stations for the previously hard-torecycle items will be located at Mornington, Rosebud and Hastings and Somerville libraries.

A NEW recycling service has been started for such items as cables, mobile phones and cameras, DVDs, CDs, floppy disks and cases, videos, cassettes and cases, x-rays, light globes and fluorescent tubes.

The shire says for two years it has been “exploring all available options to better manage parking” around beaches, town centres “and across the peninsula more generally”. Paid parking is one of the options being con sidered to “improve the parking experience”.

The items will be collected by social enterprise Green Collect and taken to Braybook centre to be recycled. Green Collect says 60 per cent of Items get re-used while 35 per cent are dismantled for recycling.Thenew stations are designed to accept do mestic amounts and large quantities and bulkier items should be takent the shire’s resource recovery

MOTORISTS may soon be paying to park their vehicles on the Mornington Peninsula, but not those issued with a residents’ permit. “Parking management services” will be invit ed to submit expressions of interest to Morning ton Peninsula Shire covering resident permits, paid parking and smart parking technology.

It says the expressions of interest from com mercial parking companies “will give us a detailed understanding of the technology and services available and the factors that need to be considered, such as a resident parking permit scheme, paid parking and smart parking technol ogy”.Community input will be sought as part of the process to “develop key principles designed to improve the experience of parking for everyone who lives, works and plays on the peninsula”.

DETECTIVES from Frankston CIU arrested one man and seized several 3D printed hand guns last week as part of an investigation into firearm trafficking and manufacturing across Melbourne’s south-east. The investigation began after police appre hended a 24-year-old male in Langwarrin on 23 March. After a search, the man was allegedly found in possession of an imitation handgun. Following this arrest, police searched a factory in Carrum Downs on 11 May, recovering two hand guns, including one manufactured by a 3D printer. A 32-year-old Carrum Downs man was arrested and charged with prohibited person in charge of firearms and possess a drug of dependence. He was remanded at the time and later sentenced to four months’ imprisonment at Frankston Magistrates Court. The investigation ended when a further search warrant was executed at a Cranbourne East ad dress on Thursday 17 August. Police recovered a range of items from the house, including five 3D printed handguns, including one designed to fire shotgun rounds; one semi-automatic handgun; 3D printed gun parts, including barrels, magazines, and frames; ammunition; and a 3D printer. A 31-year-old man was arrested at the address and has since been charged with manufacturing and trafficking firearms. He was remanded to appear at Frankston Magistrates Court on the 12 September.Theoperation saw Frankston CIU seize nine firearms, including six 3D printed handguns. Senior Sergeant Stephen Fyffe said it is illegal to manufacture firearms without a licence, and that includes 3D printed guns.

DEVELOPER owners of a heritage listed former hospital in Mount Eliza are reviewing their plans after being refused a permit by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT). The general manager of Hengyi Pacific Simon Manley last week said after the VCAT refusal that “the pathway forward for us is clearer now” and plans for a “luxury retirement village” would be revised. The former Mt Eliza Centre (built in the 19th century as a family mansion), “pool house” and chapel at 33 Jacksons Road would be retained and restored and “refurbished respectfully” in the revised plans to be go to council. Hengyi’s original plans involved building 105 low density dwellings over eight buildings on the 3.41-hectare site overlooking Canadian Bay. The $160 million “retirement community” would be called Beachleigh (“Heritage makeo ver at Mt Eliza” The News 28/9/20).

"The pathway forward for us is clearer now and we look to reshape and balance the com ments that have been set out,” Manley said last week."Our mission to provide a development like nothing else on offer in the retirement living space is still the focus for us for this site. We look forward to working with council on the revised submission of the master plan when it is ready.”

hard-

Despite shire officers recommending approval of the original plans, councillors refused, based on the proposal’s impact on the character of the neighbourhood and foreshore, loss of vegeta tion, heritage considerations, overdevelopment, and insufficient information regarding the traffic impacts and the loss of views from surrounding properties.DespiteHengyi modifying its plans before the VCAT hearing, the shire still refused to grant a permit.Manley said after the VCAT decision that the company was “pleased however, that VCAT and council’s planning officers” supported the land being used as a retirement village.

“We have been inundated with purchaser inquiries since the initial website launch and will keep them informed of the timeline as it progresses,” he said. “The supply of luxury retirement community products in the area is clearly lacking. We have an ageing population that needs a vibrant mix of housing options al lowing them to remain living in the area.”

Cr Anthony Marsh* I WELCOME MP for Flinders Zoe McKenzie’s support for a better deal for the Mornington Peninsula in terms of access to federal and state government funding programs (“Region status confusing and costly” The News 9/8/22). She is right in saying the peninsula’s metro politan classification does not recognise that 70 per cent of it is rural in character. We also agree that because of this classification, the peninsula misses out on much-needed funding designed to support regional areas. Where we disagree is over how best to tackle this issue. Our extensive research and planning advice tells us that reclassifying the peninsula as regional is not the answer. It would require uncertain and lengthy legislative changes, and the devil would most certainly be in the detail. Classifying the peninsula as a regional area would mean land outside the urban growth boundary would no longer be subject to the Met ropolitan Green Wedge Protection provisions (clause 46AC) under the Planning and Environ ment Act 1987. Equally, the Metropolitan Green Wedge Core Planning Provisions (clause 51.02 of the planning scheme) would no longer apply. It begs the question, why risk losing the long-standing planning protections for our green wedge in the complex process of changing the peninsula’s legal classification? Instead, we propose a new peri-regional status, which recognises both our metropolitan and ruralThischaracteristics.newstatuswould allow the peninsula to keep the benefits associated with access to metropolitan funding as well as gain eligibil ity to apply under regional programs. This will provide more opportunities for our agricultural, tourism and cultural sectors and safeguard our green wedge. It’s a win win.

By Dr Alan Nelsen* INSTEAD of apologising for its incompetence and the debacle with the aged care services, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has dis gracefully attempted to apportion its share of the blame to others. More than four years ago, the then CEO indicated that the shire could not compete on cost against private aged care providers and was considering outsourcing. Then two years ago the council itself appointed mecwacare following a rigorous tender process “which explored all options available to deliver certain aged and disability services to new clients under an aged care partner provider model”. The current CEO, John Baker, said: “The introduction of this excellent partner provider for new clients enables a gradual transition to the new aged care system outlined by the Com monwealth Government with minimal impact for current clients and staff” … “Council is abso lutely focused on ensuring continuity and quality of care for clients throughout the Common wealth Government’s national aged care reform transition period”. Only three months ago when the when the federal government appointed the new providers, one being mecwacare, the mayor Cr Anthony Marsh chimed in and said: “We are working closely with the Commonwealth Government and the new providers to ensure the changeover goes smoothly. Current services will remain in place until the change is complete and we expect there to be minimal disruption to care.”

Importantly, the creation of a peri-regional designation could be achieved by simply expanding the criteria on key regional funding programs to include peri-regional councils. Any government could do this quite easily, and it does not risk a stalemate if the government of the day does not have the numbers in parliament to pass changes to the relevant Acts. There is a precedent for this approach. In June 2020, a group of six regional councils success fully secured recognition of their more urban characteristics through a peri-urban classification and gained access to key metropolitan funding streams.Weare proposing a similar approach but seek ing recognition of our regional/rural character istics. Yarra Ranges Shire has joined with us to ask for a similar classification so that we can both gain access to key regional funding streams. We are confident our peri-regional advocacy has the potential to deliver a much better longterm outcome for our community, rather than seeking regional classification and risking the uncertain results that process would entail. This issue is too important to become politi cised. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss our peri-regional approach further with all political candidates and members of parlia ment over the coming months. To learn more about the shire’s peri-regional advocacy visit: mornpen.vic.gov.au/periregional *Anthony Marsh is the mayor of Mornington Peninsula Shire.

Peri-regional benefits with a green wedge

The Australian Services Union also warned the shire in a letter a year ago that “there is a workforce crisis in the aged care sector. There are simply too few workers who are committed and trained to meet service demand”. So now what is the council’s solution? To seek assurances from the federal government that the recently outsourced care services haven’t left vulnerable clients without vital home services (isn’t the council already aware of this?) and won’t continue into the future. No review of the council’s incompetence in failing to keep its promises, no apology for this disgraceful situation, and no indication of how it will help fix the problem.

No apology offered for in-home care debacle

BREAKFASTEASYwithJon&Julie

At the same meeting, a number of councillors praised the officers for doing a brilliant job and for having excellent strategies and funding for the transition. Hello, a thousand elderly without home care is an excellent job? Not one councillor questioned the executive on what went wrong.

COMMENT

*Alan Nelsen is treasurer of Mornington Peninsula Ratepayers’ Association.

THE

The council cannot use the excuse that it was unaware that there was a shortage of aged care workers. In August 2021, when it was made aware that its partner mecwacare was experienc ing a shortage of qualified workers, council en dorsed a contract variation to enable mecwacare to employ unqualified staff to deliver domestic assistance services.

So, the 77-year-old resident with a “a fused back from spinal surgery and has undergone surgery for lung cancer” who mentioned to the media she had not received in-home assistance is an activist and needs to have a look at herself?

However, when it and became clear that many elderly residents were without in-home care, a councillor falsely claimed that that the federal government “forced” the council to outsource its aged care services. The mayor then changed his tune and said; “We did not get a say in the appointment of new providers, that was done by the federal govern ment.” It seems to have conveniently slipped from the mayor’s memory that not so long ago the council itself had selected mecwacare as the organisation “best placed to provide a high level of service to clients”. During the Tuesday 9. August council meeting a councillor pathetically stated the media and “people agitating to no end have a look at your self and stop using click bait for attention as this is causing stress for people in their home and is unethical in my view” (“Assurance sought over in-home care” The News 16/8/22).

In September 2023, the Torch will pass through the area covered by the Mornington Peninsula Legacy Club (embracing the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston ‘Local Government’ areas) on its way to Tasmania before returning for the big ‘finale’ at the Melbourne Legacy Club.

The Western Port Biosphere Reserve, which includes the entire Mornington Peninsula, is sub stantially comprised of private holdings, which Barker says makes “the whole of community” involvement a vital part of strategies to help mitigate against climate change and biodiversity loss.The reserve is one of 738 places in 134 coun tries recognised by the United Nations for the uniqueness and importance of its biodiversity. Biosphere reserves promote solutions to enable people to live in harmony with the environment. They also advocate for the protection of en vironmental assets and for sustainable develop ment through research, education, which informs discussion and solutions aligned with society’s ability to cope with change. The UN’s sustainable development goals form a centrepiece of the advocacy and programs un dertaken for the Western Port Biosphere Reserve Foundation. Programs include partnering with industry and government on projects to achieve better environmental outcomes while maintain ing or improving their performance.

Speaking after the release of Australia’s 2021 State of the Environment Report - a review completed by scientists last year but held back by the Morrison government until after the fed eral election – foundation chief executive Mel Barker said saving species should start “in our own“Australiansbackyard”.concerned about the dramatic losses of mammals, birds and fish and the alarm ing replacement of native plants with introduced species can make valuable contributions to solu tions by acting locally,” she said.

TORCH RELAY 2023

• Have OR have had a connection to Legacy.

Beginning in Pozieres (France) on ANZAC Day in 2023, the Centenary Torch will travel around the world via the city of London and then home to Australia, landing in Perth in May 2023. The Torch will then continue its journey via all 43 Legacy Clubs throughout Australia, finishing in Melbourne in October 2023.

Most events in next year’s writers’ festival will be held at the newly renovated Continental Sorrento.Perkinsays she saw a boom in the peninsula’s permanent and visitor populations during the COVID-19 crisis and decided the festival would provide “an additional cultural offering”.

“The magnificent Sorrento and Portsea environment is the hero of our festival. Despite 150 years of visitor influx and development, it retains its natural beauty thanks to a caring and vigilant nature-loving community,” she said. to

THE Western Port Biosphere Reserve Founda tion wants people to “think about how acting logically” could protect the environment and endangered species.

“It’s time to hear the stories of friends from other places, to listen to their ideas, and to learn more about ourselves and the world around us via the written and spoken word,” Perkin said. “We all love stories and it is time to tell the story of our beautiful coastal region to a wider audience.

The environment report paints a sad picture of massive species loss in Australia, with federal Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek label ling evidence of ecosystem change impacted by climate change and human behaviour as “shocking”.Barkersays that rather than feeling over whelmed by the scale of problems associated with climate change and biodiversity loss, com munity collaboration can be a “great enabler”.

“Recently we signed an agreement with the award-winning Moonlit Sanctuary at Pearcedale to collaborate on saving species and other envi ronmental initiatives,” she said.

LOVER of the written word, Corri Perkin is organising a writers’ festival at Sorrento.

“We want our festival to celebrate this beauti ful part of the world, the special ecology of the Mornington Peninsula, its ancient history and its European settler beginnings, and we want to encourage visitors to experience as much as they can during their festival visit.”

“The Sorrento Writers Festival will be a time for open minds and open hearts. It will be a time for laughter and listening. It will be a time for debate, discussion and intellectual prodding. And it’s an opportunity to celebrate this beauti ful peninsula with our local friends, and with our visitors,” Perkin said. Perkin closed her Hawksburn bookshop after 12 years mid-last year as a result of lockdowns and fruitless rental negotiations.

“We would encourage landholders throughout the biosphere reserve to consider future plant ings of species native to the reserve. “Specialist native nurseries able to advise on selecting and growing these plants abound through the region, including one at Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association in Hastings.”

Barker said the biosphere foundation was also pleased to receive money in May from Regional Roads Victoria to evaluate the design and effectiveness of road crossings to protect the endangered southern brown bandicoot and will work with community partners to deliver the project.“Wealso have projects funded and ready to commence to support the restoration of native plants, creating corridors and habitat to optimise the biodiversity necessary to support our plants and animals,” she said.

“It was based on our very positive participa tion over the past year in its team’s program to restore populations of the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot, which migrates between south-eastern Victoria and Tasmania.”

• Have OR have had a connection to the Defence Community.

In 2023, Legacy will be celebrating their centenary with “The Legacy Centenary Torch Relay 2023” presented by Defence Health marking 100 years of service to those who have sacrificed.

In 1923, Legacy made a promise to help veterans’ families carry on with their lives after the loss or injury of their loved one. It was a simple promise that Legacy keeps today; providing the same stability, guidance and assistance that a partner would normally provide to his or her family.

The not-for-profit event is predicted to “en courage deep thinking and compelling conversa tions” through meet the author events, speeches, panel discussions, a business seminar, readings, musical performances, children’s programs, and a book club.

WORDS, narrative and music will take prec edence in April next year at Sorrento when more than 45 authors, playwrights, journalists, academics and musicians attend the inaugural Sorrento Writers’ Festival. The four-day festival is planned by journalist, podcaster, former bookshop owner Corrie Per kin “to celebrate literature in Australia, inspire big ideas and encourage bold thinking”.

If your agriculture and manufacturing business demonstrates a commitment to innovation and sustainability, you’re encouraged to enter the agriculture and manufacturing category of the awards. Some things to think about are: n Have you used modernization to grow your business? n What do you do to implement sustainable practices? n How are you connected to your local com munity?Building and construction and agriculture and manufacturing are only two of nine possible categories that businesses can enter in this year’s awards, with award category winners also eligible for selection as Business of the Year. Entries close Sunday 11 September. The entry process is short and easy, and it’s all online. The results will be announced at a gala blacktie presentation event on Wednesday 19 October at Mornington Racecourse, when our business community will come together to celebrate the successes many businesses have achieved.

Speakers at the event were to in clude Liberal Upper House candidates Renee Heath, a member of the City Builders Church and former Family First member, Ann-Marie Hermans.

Crewther told The News that the A change in direction, a new horizon event had been moved to Steeples at Mornington Racecourse because his office was too small for the number of people expected to attend. He said the free event had not been organised by Stratov. Crewther was elected MP for Dunk ley in 2016 but lost it to Labor’s Peta Murphy in 2019. Before Crewther’s term, Dunkley had previously been held for 20 years by Liberal Bruce Billson. His selection as the candidate for the state seat of Mornington surprised and alienated some supporters of David Morris, who had held the seat for the Liberals since 2006 and was hoping to win his fifth successive election. Labor is yet to announce it candi date for Mornington.

WHAT’S LookingNEW...for building and construction, agriculture and manufacturing excellence

THE online invitation circulated by Ivan Stratov to an event in Liberal candidate Chris Crewther’s Mornington office. The event was moved to Steeples at Mornington Racecourse.

THERE was a collective sigh of relief in households throughout Mount Martha when news broke that “Paddy has been found”. Paddy, a golden retriever, had gone missing the same afternoon that his owner became disoriented while out for one of their regular walks. Geoff Spinks, 86, was “lost” for about five hours and reunited with family and friends about 10pm on that cold and wintry Sunday night in early August. As soon as Geoff was made com fortable at home the searchers’ focus swung around to the missing Paddy, a dog that rarely leaves his master’s side. Staying connected through the Mt Martha Community Grapevine Face book page, searchers combed the area for eight-year-old Paddy. “We shared where people were searching and tips and tricks to help when a dog is missing,” Andy Quin said. “I was out walking and search ing nonstop and everyone I walked past knew the story and were also keeping an eye out for him.” Three days later a seemingly unaffected Paddy was found by two workers after a freezing night at The Briars historic property, off Nepean Highway. Trained as a companion for children with disabilities, Paddy does not bark to attract attention. Sandra Spinks said her husband and Paddy walked together several times a day and it was still a mystery how they became separated. She had been “overwhelmed” by the response and concern of Mount Martha people when they heard about the pair’s disappearance. “People went out with torches and their dogs looking for them in the cold. It just snowballed,” she said. Paddy was not dishevelled, wet or muddy when found at The Briars “and we don’t know how he got there or entered the property”. Eager to show their appreciation for Paddy’s return the Spinks used the online grapevine (of course) to invite the Mount Martha community to a re union and celebration at the Balcombe Estuary park one week after the pair went missing.

The Liberal insider who made the accusations of a takeover by the religious right said party headquarters stepped in to move the meeting from Crewther’s office when it became known that speakers included those “supporting anti-abortion and a transphobic agenda”.

MERRICKS General Store started with a love story. The story of Alf and Tilly. Matilda Joyner, ‘Tilly’, grew up on a farm in Merricks, Albert Weston, ‘Alf’, was from Queensland. After join ing the navy, he was posted to HMAS Cerberus. Alf met Tilly at a naval dance, and romance blossomed. In 1922 they got engaged, and he gave his salary to Tilly and the Joyner family, so they could build a shop at Merricks. In the early days, it was called the Merricks Post Office Store, and sold farm supplies. The galvanized iron building got very hot in summer and had no refrigeration. It had a wind-up petrol pump, and housed the biggest telephone exchange on the peninsula before the war. In 2022, Merricks General Wine Store is still an important part of the local community. The store is a restaurant, a cellar door, and a pur veyor of local produce.

Proprietors, Charlie and Samantha Baillieu, together with the Myer family, are planning to mark the occasion with events planned during October.

A new season of watching people watch TV kicks off around Australia with the 16th season of this much-loved reality-TV juggernaut. Giggles, gaffes and philosophical chit-chat await, but fans have been saddened by the recent passing of Di Kershaw whose candid and forthright commentary on modern TV will be greatly missed. Fans can rest assured that favourites including Lee and Keith (left), the Dalton family and the Delpechitra family are all back on the couch.

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

SEVEN, 7pm It’s funny how tastes can change. A little more than two years ago, this show disappeared after a lacklustre season that failed to whet viewers’ appetites. Now, with a new set of judges and guests including Nigella Lawson, Matt Preston (above) and Curtis Stone, this season is turning out to be people’s cup of tea. With an entertaining crew of contestants, including young Sydney couple Janelle and Monzir and radiation therapists Kate and Mary, it’s easy to see why. Tonight, the first last-chance challenge has four teams from group one cooking a main and dessert.

But for Mornington Peninsula Shire council lors to blame “activists” for the flack directed at themselves and officers is a bit rich. If councillors really cared, they would put out an open letter to the minister for health an age ing in the major media to point out how the new system is 100 per cent not working. Or are they afraid that some of their own shortcomings on this issue would be pointed out to them by the new federal government?

Rupert Steiner. Balnarring Beach Activist councillors Attack is the best method of defence? Accord ing to Cr Steve Holland “a lot of it is drummed up by activists that clearly have an axe to grind. Why they direct their anger at the shire I really don’t know”. Then adding “It’s about ensuring there is a review into why the federal govern ment has utterly bungled the transfer” (“As surance sought over in-home care” The News 16/8/22). Straight out of the Liberal Party’s bible? Sorry Steve, you are talking nonsense. We are honest ageing residents bearing the brunt of your (our) council’s decision to rid yourselves of our needs. Building castles? You saw an opportunity and embraced it, unlike many other councils. Your double talk does not alter the obvious conclu sions.Activists indeed? If anyone can be labelled activists I would suggest you and your council power group. Cliff Ellen, Rye Let down by shire We wish to voice our disappointment at the ongoing delays completing the renovations to the Tyabb Football Netball Club. Clubs throughout Victoria rely on volunteers to generate much needed income to support teams of all ages and gender. Poor management and poor workmanship have resulted in the renovations running eight months behindPleaseschedule.don’tplay the COVID card. There are still major problems with both the kitchen and toilets, making the facility unsafe and unhygien ic and so would not meet occupational, health and safety standards, rendering the rooms unfit for use in the foreseeable future. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council cannot possibly allow anyone to use the clubrooms until a completion of works notice has been issued. The volunteers, parents, children and club members have been totally let down by the council, the contractors and our now absentee one and only councillor for Watson Ward, Paul Mercurio.

While Liz Smith may not have seen the activity on the parkland at 11A Allambi Avenue that I and others have, I do agree that the land is not ideal as a park, but it is the only open space for many people living in this pocket of Capel Sound, and as such it is important (“Allambi no park” Letters 17/8/22).

I have asked many councillors about funding for a much needed upgrade to Rosebud Hospital but was told that it is the state government’s responsibility. Isn’t it also state government’s responsibility to build commission housing? Why are local councillors getting involved in state government issues ?

Recently, Somerville Netball Club held a fundraiser, and we assumed the money would be used to purchase much needed equipment. Imag ine our disbelief when we were told the money would be used to resurface the netball courts. The netball courts are an outdoor facility open to the public to use 24/7, so why is the club and not the council responsible for the maintenance of the courts surfaces?

Cr Lisa Dixon’s report for Cerberus Ward refers to the risk of flooding to the low ly ing coastal area due to climate change, and Cr David Gill’s report refers to the shire’s climate emergency plan. I happened to listen to the ABC’s Science Show which featured several scientists from around Australia discussing climate change. Apparently, since the 1970s the temperature of the oceans has risen 0.7 degrees Celsius. This increase has been caused by “rapid” climate change. As the oceans continue to warm their ability to absorb CO2 begins to slow down, meaning more CO2 remains in the atmosphere. All agreed our planet is now facing a climate emergency, and that the window of opportu nity for action will be closed by the end of the decade.Thebest result under the Paris agreement will be to keep global warming to 1.4 degrees, otherwise it could be as high as 5.4. Current sea level rises are due to the melting of both the Greenland and west Antarctica ice caps, but the massive east Antarctica icecap is still stable with additional snowfalls balancing out peripheral melting.Itseems the world’s political leaders over the past two generations have failed us miserably. However, in Australia our new federal govern ment accepts “urgent action” is now required, just as we are on the cusp of cashing in on our vast coal and gas resources. I think the 2022 election has been a turning point with the Green vote increasing and Teal Independents winning Liberal seats. Finally, science seems to be winning out. Slowly we are learning to accept the harsh reality that our oncevaluable fossil fuels must stay in the ground. Ted Fennessy, Balnarring Beach Political natures II think the majority of candidates who stand for Mornington Peninsula Shire Council are local people with local issues at heart (“Remember ing when” Letters 9/8/22). I’m glad the old days are gone where the candidates were old “stuffed shirt” conservative “boys club” men or estate agents just wanting to rezone land so they could make a fortune. I agree that some are obviously using council as a stepping stone, unfortunately that’s the na ture of politics. Neale Adams, Bittern Stay metropolitan With the state election looming on Saturday 26 November, I hope everyone on the Mornington Peninsula has the protection of our green wedges uppermost in their minds and votes accordingly. If you don’t and we lose to those candidates and their backers with a history of a develop ment agenda, the peninsula will be reclassified as “regional” and never be the same again. The green wedges are embedded and protected in legislation under our “metropolitan” classifi cation.Basically, the choice is green wedges and met ropolitan or go regional and open the flood gates to the development dollar. Don’t be fooled into thinking a countrified term like regional is some how more “green.” Esther Gleixner, Flinders Explanation required After weeks of phone calls, emails and reading government reports, I struggle to understand Mornington Peninsula Shire’s decision to cease in-home aged care support (“Assurance sought over in-home care” The News 16/8/22). Initial inquiries were met with cries of “we were forced to do it”. A representative of Aged Care Minister Mark Butler states the “Morning ton Peninsula Shire Council decided aged care service no longer fit within their core business”. When did support and care of residents become non-core business? This decision is a callous abrogation of social responsibility. Many of the shire’s sup port recipients are decades-long residents now abandoned by those elected and employed by the community they helped build.

Yes, we know that, as usual, the previous federal government’s decision to privatise in-home care for the elderly and sick was at the cost of any such service to the vulnerable (“Assurance sought over in-home care” The News 16/8/22).

The winter 2022 edition of [Mornington Penin sula Shire Council’s] Peninsula Wide, edited by Kirsty Hardt, is a very well-produced magazine.

As the shire advocates the importance of green open space for health and wellbeing on its own website, the proposed housing development seems to negate this. So why would this make any sense to cram even more people into an already high density area at the cost of the com munity’s small area of parkland? This is not good planning. Jan Fleming, Capel Sound Park potential

Harsh reality: leave fossil fuels in the ground

The selection of outsourced providers unable to deliver continuity of care results from federal government decisions. Yet, these decisions would not have been made without the shire’s withdrawal of in-home support.

I’m so glad that she agrees with me that with a little imagination and some input from Morn ington Peninsula Shire Council, this land could become a gem of a park. Some work by council and some willing volunteers who would be very happy to lend a hand to remove those blackberry bushes and fill in some holes in the ground, add a bench seat and picnic table or two, and we have a park to be proud of. Many more would use it then. Allocating this land to affordable housing will not alleviate the immediate problem of home lessness, any building would take a considerable amount of time. I have faith that the council has the good sense to seek more immediate solutions to the prob lem. Bettyanne Foster, Capel Sound Shocking roads

Anyone who drives on the Mornington Penin sula will be well aware of the shocking state of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council-controlled roads.Wheel destroying potholes appear regularly, then are poorly patched only to reappear a few daysRoughlater.road edges and uneven road surfaces are also a daily driving hazard and council takes no responsibility for any damage to your vehicle. Council’s apparent solution is to continually lower speed limits rather than properly fixing these hazards. As if these damaged roads are not bad enough, council has seen fit to spend thousands of ratepayer dollars deliberately creating additional hazards.Thenew roundabout at Myers and Henderson roads, Bittern is a case in point. The roundabout is needed, however the speed humps prior and the raised bump blocks right on the entry are overkill and an unwarranted driver distraction.Oh,didI mention they also lowered the speed limit? Peter Shearman, Bittern On the ball

Jo Turner, Gidgegannup, Western Australia Don’t blame activists

I was surprised to read that $100 million has been requested by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to fund social housing.

The mayor Cr Anthony Marsh refutes that the shire’s withdrawal from aged care has been done by stealth (“Shire ‘committed’ to aged care” The News 9/8/22). I say it has been done with obfus cation, opacity, and little regard for the needs of residents. Ensuring “residents had the advantage of a competitive market environment” seems slender justification.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to upgrade a health facility before you lift the population by wanting to build a housing area on the parkland in Allambi Avenue, Capel Sound? Especially when residents in Capel Sound, who have been affected by the lack of an adequate hospital, also now stand to lose their parkland at 11a Allambi Avenue in order to provide even more homes in an already concen trated area. The short street of the new part of Wingara Drive has 70 dwellings and they’re wanting to build even more homes off this street.

I have just read Mornington get first win over Tyabb in 107 years (The News 16/8/22). An in teresting story, but why does the small headline say AFL? The match between these two clubs was not in the AFL. The AFL is a competition - the Australian Football League - and it contains such clubs as Carlton, Collingwood and the Sydney Swans. That headline should have said either MPNFL or Australian Rules. John Mack, Rye Community helps On Friday 24 June I fell heavily and broke my wrist while walking along the clifftop path past Tanti Creek, Mornington. I’d got up, badly shaken, and was groggily holding onto a nearby road sign and wondering how on earth I could walk the two kilometres back to my car when a brightly painted Kombi-type van pulled in to the kerb. A voice said, “Do you need help?” “Yes”. The driver, Luke, detached me from the post and held me up and I promptly fainted. I came around to find myself draped over a car bonnet (Luke said I was a “dead weight!”) with about half a dozen concerned passers-by gathered around. Someone rang an ambulance. to find the wait would be two or three hours. The ambulance receptionist was terrific, stayed on the line until I croaked “Think I could sit in a car”. Meantime, someone else had gone across the road to borrow a (dining room) chair for me. Phil, its owner, said “I’ll take you to hospital”. Luke said, “I’m coming too”. Phil said, “Park your van in my driveway”. An unnamed exercise coach advised me several times to “keep the hand elevated”. Everyone was wonderful. In the emergency department at the hospital Phil and Luke helped me remember the neces sary phone numbers (I had no details with me) and stayed with me for more than an hour until I was admitted. Not only that, Phil collected my car and parked it in his front garden and returned the keys to me in hospital the next day. They were both outstanding in their care. We’re keep ing in Peopletouch.have big hearts. Community rocks. Philippa Ransome, Merricks Beach Roadside rubbish Next time you drive along Peninsula Link, especially between the McCulloch Street on ramp and the first exit to Mornington, check the amount of rubbish on the verges and in the centre strip. I have called and reported this to VicRoads on six occasions, sent photos in three separate emails and emailed the responsible minister to no avail. The contractor responsible does not have a regular clean-up of this section. Rubbish of all description will be there for six months and more. They mow the verges and run over the mess or put it into the centre strip. Some items were on the on ramp for three years, such as a microwave and table before I mentioned it to a road worker. A sign blown down last December is still in that state, along with damaged cyclone fencing and sign at McCulloch Street. Even though it is not Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s responsibility surely they most notice it. Don’t use the saying “where the mountain meets the sea,” it should be where the rubbish meets the sea. Ken Oakley, Dromana Hunt should tell It’s great to see the contempt the former prime minister Scott Morrison had, and has, for the people of Australia. Appointing himself to sev eral ministries and swearing himself into these rolls without even telling the cabinet ministers, let alone the people of Australia what he has done.Our former MP for Flinders Greg Hunt should come clean with what he knows about this and why it happened, as he was one of a few who knew this was happening. Why keep the people of Australia in the dark? It is a disgrace to take us for granted when democracy is under pressure and threat around theOurworld.democracy needs protection, after all, these people work for us as we put them there. Well, sort of. What else have they been doing without our knowledge? Murray Whitelaw, Mount Martha DUE to limited space, several letters have been withheld from this week’s issue - editor

The shire’s Positive Ageing Strategy 20202025 commits to ensuring “quality ‘in-home’ support remains available to those who need it”. Do councillors and the executive believe this objective is being met? Those responsible for recommending and approving this action need to explain what influenced their decision. The exclusion from council meeting minutes, due to commercial-inconfidence, of the report that informed council deliberations (7/12/21) reinforces the impression that residents do not have a complete picture of how and why this decision was taken.

Compiled by Cameron McCullough EXCITEMENT ran high at Frankston yesterday when Cr. Oates, the retiring councillor for the Frankston Riding, was opposed by Mr. W. Crawford Young.Thecontest was the keenest seen in Frankston for many years. Both sides were well organised, with the result that a high percentage of ratepayers recorded their votes. Out of 793 votes on the roll 338 were accounted for. Mr. Young who was contesting the seat on the High School question, on the grounds that Cr. Oates had not taken sufficient interest in the matter, polled exceptionally well considering the strength of his opponent’s support in the country districts. The final figures gave Cr. Oates a majority of 55 votes. The Returning Officer, Cr. W. P. Mason, was exceptionally prompt in announcing the result. He was assisted at the poll by Mr. J. E. Jones, who acted as poll clerk. Mr. Norman Clements was scru tineer for Mr. Young, and Mr. Hugh Cameron acted in a similar capacity for Cr. Oates. Cr. Oates in returning thanks to the ratepayers, said he was very pleased with the result of the local vote. The fact that the postal vote was against him was, he considered due to the misrepresentation that had taken place through his opponent’s commit tee.He would see to it that Frankston got its High Mr.(Cheers).School.Youngalso addressed the elec tors.He thanked all who had worked so hard in his interests. They all knew that he contested the seat against Cr. Oates in order to uphold a principle. He considered that Cr. Oates had not worked to secure a High School as he should have done. Cr. Young then formally moved a vote of thanks to the Returning Officer, which was seconded by Cr. Oates and carried. *** A MISHAP which occurred at Chelsea on Tuesday morning was very near to being a tragedy. A down train had just pulled into the station when a hard-driven milk cart turned to cross the level crossing on to the Frankston road, at the north end of theMeanwhilestation. an express engine and guard’s van was approaching to pass through without stopping. This train was hidden by that already in the Whenstation.theengine whistled before entering the station, Mrs. Dodd, who was there with her cab, saw the danger and shouted to the driver of the cart. He did not hear her, however, and was on the down rails just as the light engine dashed past. The horse reared at the sudden pull on the reins and part of the engine caught the side of its heard a glancing blow and broke one of the shafts. Later a vet attended the horse, when he found that its cheekbone was frac tured in two places and its tongue cut. He expects, however, with careful treatment, to save the animal. At all times when there is a down train in the station this crossing is a blind one and most dangerous. Special precautions should be taken by the railway people to ensure safety at the crossing when the view is obstructed by a train standing at the down platform.

‘The Standard’ publisher fails in council bid

THE first semi-final in the Mornington Peninsula Football Association will be played at Frankston, on Saturday afternoon.Mornington and Hastings will be the opposing teams. As Hastings have improved 100 percent during the past few weeks, they should seriously challenge Morn ington’s right to remain any longer in theMorningtoncontest. have a strong side selected and the game should therefore be well worth the watching. League officials entirely will have charge of proceedings, the officials appointed being: Umpire, McKenzie; goal umpires, Bartlett and Bell; bound ary umpires, Compton and Morgan. ***

AT the conclusion of the function held in honor of Mr. W. Crawford Young, proprietor of “The Standard,” held on Saturday evening last, the chairman (Mr. J. D. Jennings) announced that advantage would be taken of the op portunity offered by such a large and representative gathering to make a pre sentation to the Governor of Pentridge, Major Conder, O.B.E. The presentation, the chairman said, should have been made months before, and had been unavoidably delayed, was in the form of an illuminated ad dress from the people of Frankston. He called on Mr. T. J. McMurtrie to make the presentation. Mr. McMurtrie said it afforded him very great pleasure to carry out the duty entrusted to him. He had been in close touch with Major Condor at Langwarrin, and knew the magnificent work carried out by him there. This little presentation was simply a small token of appreciation from the residents of Frankston to convey their gratitude to Major Conder for all he had done for their little town. His departure from the district was a distinct loss. His numerous friends wished him success in his new sphere of labor. What he had done to transform Langwarrin was sufficient guar antee that he would prove successful in his new task. People who lived in cobwebs always cried out when the cob webs were swept away. (Laughter and applause). Major Conder, who was received with loud applause, said he regarded it a sort of privilege to “blow in” amongst his Frankston friends oc casionally.Itwasparticularly pleasing to be present that evening when Frankston citizens were doing honor to Mr. Young.Inall his movements initiated at Langwarrin the late proprietor of “The Standard,” Mr. Young, senr., had been one of his best, keenest and brightest supporters.“TheStandard” newspaper was a credit to the district. Major Conder, in referring to his new appointment, said he did not resent criticism – fair criticism – but when a man was faced with unjust criticism it was something very dif ficult to combat. The speaker concluded his speech in happy vein. He said he was always happy when in the Frankston district. “God bless you,” he added, “but if you get into my hands. God help you.” (Laughter and applause).

By Stuart McCullough THE Netflix giveth and the Netflix taketh away. Without any warning whatsoever as it turns out. One minute you’re watching season 12 of ‘Eng lish Pantries and Cupboards’, moments from learning who’ll take out the ultimate title of ‘Lord Cupboard Sorter’ and the grand prize of a week’s caravanning in Devon before the whole series disappears. Abducted, never to be seen again. Without so much as a goodbye note, it vanishes from your ‘continue watching’ list. It’s gaslighting, pure and simple. A series, once yanked from the platform, leaves no trace that it was ever there at all until you be gin to question your own sanity. Did I imagine devoting one hundred and thirty hours – much of them in a single weekend – to watching a life style show about tidying your cupboards? Was it a dream? Surely not! Instead, our shows are sto len from us, right when we need them most. How is it that we allowed ourselves to be at the mercy of this unfeeling, insensitive streaming overlord? How dare you, Netflix! One minute I’m enjoy ing myself thoroughly, the next I’ve been cruelly cut off without so much as a five-minute warning. For shame! Had I known you were about to yank the rug out from under me, I’d have redoubled my efforts, lest I should be stranded; hapless and flailing, without any clue as to how the series might end. I feel so….unresolved. It’s all so incredibly arbitrary. Things appear and disappear as they please. When I was a kid, I took piano lessons. In the waiting room, there was a small pile of religious pamphlets that were very keen on the idea of an imminent ‘rapture’. For those unfamiliar with it, ‘the rapture’ was the moment when God’s servants would be called to heaven and would disappear from the face of the earth. It was quite the concept; one that I hoped would manifest immediately before my year 10 Maths B exam, to no avail. Having things vanish from your watch list; it’s as though the rapture has suddenly called your favourite television shows to heaven. It’s made worse by how loudly Netflix will trumpet the shows arriving on its platform. I am constantly barraged by unsolicited emails telling me about programs that I would only ever watch at gunpoint and, even then, probably not. If that sounds like a drastic and melodramatic overstate ment, then let me simply say ‘Goop’. Enough said. Netflix will go to great lengths to talk up these shows, most of which will inevitably be complete duds, whilst saying nothing about those that are about to be moved on. Imagine if some one you worked with left and there wasn’t a fare well card? It’d be a scandal. It’s made worse by the nature of television these days. Once, TV shows were episodic in na ture and each episode was largely self-contained. You can start watching ‘The Fall Guy’ or ‘The A-Team’ or even ‘Magnum P.I.’ mid-season and you’ll know exactly what’s going on. These shows went to great lengths to explain them selves, often in the opening theme song. Now, however, television shows have story arcs that last the best part of a decade and blinking at the wrong time means that you’ll have missed some subtle but essential clue that becomes a vital part of understanding episode twelve in season twentyTheseseven.shows require commitment. They de mand hours of your time for weeks, if not months on end, until they dominate your life. Television shows have a much bigger canvas than movies and are more likely to take their sweet time in getting to the point. It’s common to be told that a particular series is fabulous ‘once you get past the first six seasons’. It’s a lot to ask. But, hav ing made that commitment, to have the series re moved is an act of unfathomable cruelty. Technology companies are funny like that. On the one hand, they present themselves as being at the centre of everything that’s good and won derful about contemporary culture. They portray themselves as offering consumer choice and promise the freedom to watch what you want, when you want. Which they kind of do right up until the moment they rip the rug out from under you. Why is transparency so difficult for these mega-tech titans? It’s as though they’re afraid of what we might say if they told us the truth, so they go to great lengths to tell us as little as possible. It’s a sleight of hand. A dirty hustle by bloated corporate entities, fuelled by algorithms at the expense of human emotion. It leaves me with no choice – I’ll have to write my own end ing. It’s not the first time. I was mid-way through series seven of ‘Mad Men’ when Netflix dumped it. Using Lego piec es, I filmed an ending on my phone in which Don Draper quit advertising to become a professional hotdog vendor in Omaha. He settles down and ends up incredibly contented before lighting up the dance floor when disco rolls around. Then aliens attacked. Don Draper defended the entire planet using nothing but a small, flimsy Lego sword with only his wits and plastic hair for pro tection. It’s not much of an ending, but at least it’s mine. Take that, Netflix. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Netsux: The Streaming of Unconsciousness THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

THE inspiration for Gold Coast producer Monique Cribb’s project came to her in a dream back in 2018; she knew she needed to honour the musical legacy of the late soul legend, Aretha Franklin. After months of writing the script and finding the right talent, her show RESPECT – The Aretha Franklin story is touring Australia in“The2022.show is more than showcasing Aretha’s greatest songs; it is a story about family, loyalty and victory, layered with glorious harmonies and sassy repartee.”Monique said not only was Aretha the undisputed queen of soul, she also changed the landscape of R&B music. “With her incredible four octave vocal range, and what was described as a hurricane of a voice, she is one of the most successful divas that has ever lived,” she said. “She was so much more than a singer; she was a powerful figure for feminism and civil rights. I wanted to honour her legacy with the highest regard, so when I went looking for a singer who could connect with Aretha’s journey, and a voice to match, I couldn’t go past Australia’s finest soul singer, Angie Narayan.”Angie’sextraordinary talent was showcased on the hit reality TV show, Australian Idol. Dubbed Australia’s ‘Soul Mama’ by Ian Dickinson, she has continued to blow people away with her ground breaking voice. “Aretha was Angie’s greatest musical influence of her life. She ironically embodies so much of Aretha’s essence and heart, which is why I knew she was the perfect artist to play such a significant role” Monique said. Monique said the show is a trip down memory lane for anyone who is an Aretha Franklin fan. “We start in the 1960s, where Aretha’s career began, taking you on an intimate musical odyssey through Aretha’s life of love, tragedy and triumph” she said. “The 1960s was all jazz and blues, the 1970s with disco, and 1980s with pop, with Aretha constantly reinventing herself, which is why she had career spanning over 50 years. You cannot put her in one category; she was not quite R&B, not quite pop, not quite gospel – she was unstoppable mix of all three.”

RESPECT – THE ULTIMATE ‘ARETHA’ EXPERIENCE IS COMING!

Western Port News 24 August 2022 PAGE 27

“RESPECT was originally released by Otis Redding in 1957, but true to Aretha’s style, she upped the tempo and added the famous ‘sock it to me line’, making it anthem not just for black pride, but for every single human being regardless of race or gender. Her career skyrocketed from here.” “She remained a prominent figure for women in the 1980s with ‘Sisters Are Doin It For Themselves’, a clear cut anthem for woman’s liberation - she was such a bold, phenomenal woman.”

RESPECT is guaranteed to get you up and out of your seat dancing! You can expect all your favourite hits like ‘Natural Woman’, ’Think’, ‘Say A Little Prayer’, ‘Son of a Preacher Man’ and ‘Chain of Fools’ Don’t miss RESPECT – The Aretha Franklin Story at Frankston Arts Centre on Saturday 17 September.Ticketsare available artscentre.frankston.vic.gov.auvia or the box office on (03) 9784 1060.

Strikers took the lead in the 62nd minute thanks to a Cooper Andrews lob from 30 metres but Doncaster hit back in the 85th minute through cap tain Steve McRae’s free-kick.

Star Pines midfielder Jordan “Caka” Avraham was shown a straight red card in the 29th minute which made Pines’ task of breaking down a defensiveminded opponent difficult. “They well and truly parked the bus and although we created a few chances we couldn’t break them down,” Pines boss Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor said. “It was disappointing as we lost twice all year, had 14 clean sheets, scored 60 goals and conceded 15. “But it is what it is. Our primary aim was to get the club out of State 3 and we have achieved that.”

Chelsea gaffer Carlo Melino was understandably upbeat after the white wash.“Previously at this level our best was six wins so to end on 12 wins and equal third in the league was excellent and the whole club is happy with that,” he said. “The reserves finished second which was their highest finish at this level.

In State 1 Mornington led eventual champion Beaumaris 1-0 on Saturday at Beaumaris Reserve only to lose 2-1. Mornington needed other results to go its way and beat Beaumaris and it played its part with a fantastic goal by John Maclean in the 35th minute. He turned his defender inside out be fore finishing well. But four minutes into the second half Mornington hearts were broken as a long ball over the top saw a mix up be tween defenders and goalkeeper Tay lor Davidson allowing Ryan Brown to pinch an equaliser.

“We’ve given ourselves a great step ping stone for next season and we ex pect to retain most of the squad.”

Two minutes later Brito’s moment arrived and the youngster unleashed a low left-foot drive from outside the area that rocketed inside the far post and settled the issue.

State 2 boost, Langy teens shine

Promotion ensures a series of local derbies next year with Pines, Strikers and Skye United all hunting success at State 2 level. In NPL2 Langwarrin’s season of underachievement finished on a posi tive note with a gripping 3-2 win over Manningham United Blues at Lawton Park on Saturday. Prior to the season kick-off the local club was bullish about its promotion prospects having assembled a squad boasting NPL elite quality but reality never matched expectation. Six wins in 22 matches attest to that. At least home fans went home happy last weekend and were given a glimpse of the future after outstanding displays from two teenagers, midfield match winner Jacob Brito and debutant goal keeper Nathan Lynders. Fraser Maclaren’s late call-off due to migraine gave Lynders his chance and he was composed throughout making two excellent reaction saves. Langy led 2-0 at half-time thanks to a quick interplay between Kieran Do ver, James Kelly and Tom Youngs in the 35th minute that saw Youngs cut inside his opponent then finish well with a low left-foot shot inside the box. Just before the break Sam Orritt’s pinpoint cross from the right was deft ly headed home by Kelly. Langy failed to take a series of great chances in the second half and even tually cruise control turned to damage control as the visitors levelled through a Salvatore Accardo brace with his sec ond in the 88th minute.

Soon after Mornington striker Josh Hine had a golden chance to steal the lead back only to scuff his shot – a ma jor let-off for the home side. Mornington was made to pay as Beaumaris took the lead through Brown in the 65th minute and put an end to Mornington’s season and pro motion ambitions.

Somerville Eagles drew 2-2 with FC Noble Hurricanes at Alex Nelson Re serve last weekend. The home side led 1-0 after eight minutes through a Connor Carson own goal following a corner but Joe Sim mons levelled from the spot after be ing brought down inside the area in the 39thNobleminute.Hurricanes thought they’d grabbed the points after winger Zuka Karic’s neat finish from a one-on-one in the 82nd minute but in the 90th min ute a Conor Mcfall cross was headed home by Josh Simmons to share the spoils.InState 5 Mount Martha ended a dif ficult season with a 2-0 home win over Pakenham United last weekend with both first-half goals coming from the club’s leading scorer Ethan Sanderson who finished fourth highest scorer in theInleague.the13th minute Sanderson ran onto a pass from Mitch Hawkins to outpace a defender and drive a left-foot finish past Pakenham United keeper James Wightman. His second came in the 43rd minute after a ball over the top by Campbell Leo picked out Sanderson who clev erly lifted the ball over the advancing Wightman.Theclash between Bunyip District and visitor Aspendale was washed out and won’t be replayed but that didn’t take the gloss off Aspendale’s reserves championship.Theclub’ssecond-string side won the title with two games to go scoring 99 goals and conceding 14. Striker Michael Pierce took out the league Golden Boot award with 18 goals while teammate Kailin Smith came third with 16 goals.
