Dressing literally up and playing the part

BOOK Week, from 19 – 25 August, was a fun and colourful series of events that celebrated literacy and reading.

Libraries at Mornington, Somerville, Hastings and Rosebud offered a range of free activities where young readers could learn about the environment, growing vegetables and fire safety, including firefighters and fire trucks.

Young readers dressed up at pre-school story times to celebrate Children’s Book Week.

Dressed as their favourite book characters they joined in a parade and stories.

Each year the Children's Book Council of Australia brings children and books together during Children's Book Week. Throughout the year, the book council partners with authors, illustrators, publishers, booksellers and other organisations in the children’s book world to bring words, images and stories into the hearts and minds of children and adults.

Homeless ‘unfairly’ blamed for crime

WELFARE workers are calling for an end to the scapegoating of homeless people over thefts and anti-social behaviour on the Mornington Peninsula.

The call follows an incident on Tuesday 22 August near the Rosebud foreshore, where a 36-year-old woman allegedly assaulted a police officer after she was seen throwing objects into traffic and behaving erratically on Point Nepean Road.

The woman, from Dromana, alleg-

edly spat at officers and was arrested at the scene. She was charged with assaulting police and remanded in custody to appear before Frankston Magistrates’ Court at a later date.

CEO of the Mornington Community Support, Ben Smith, said social media had run hot with claims that homeless people were behind many of the anti-social incidents on the peninsula, as well as a recent spate of thefts and break-ins.

He said the incident at Rosebud should not be classified as an issue with homelessness, but was related to lack of mental health support for

“those with high needs”.

“There is an unrealistic expectation by some in our community that people can afford to live below the poverty line on Jobseeker or DSP, while trying to manage physical and mental health concerns, rapidly rising food and utility expenses, insufficient public transport, and lack of affordable housing, all the while remaining calm. Crime is a symptom of a larger problem,” Smith said.

He said there was no government money for homelessness outreach workers, outreach mental health workers, and extremely inadequate levels

of public and social housing on the peninsula.

“Staff at the community support centres and Bolton Clarke are the doing that work, largely funded by philanthropy,” he said.

“We need outreach workers focused on mental health support. Our agencies are doing our utmost to feed those who are hungry, and connect people to services, but we are small and underfunded to do all the work required to completely transform poverty on the peninsula.”

CEO of Southern Peninsula Community Support, Jeremy Maxwell,

said he was also concerned by recent Facebook posts suggesting there was an increase in crime related to an increase in homelessness.

“I don’t believe that’s true and to say so is demonising people who are marginalised and impacted by homelessness. I strongly believe that is neither fair nor appropriate,” he said.

“At Southern Peninsula Community Support we are not seeing any evidence of more crime generally, but rather evidence of increased distress and anxiety as people struggle with the cost of living and the affordable housing crisis.” Continued Page 4

Changes to paid parking trial

ALTHOUGH it has refused to drop Flinders from its paid parking trial, Mornington Peninsula Shire has refined its approach to make the experiment more acceptable to residents.

Changes to the rules include a business parking permit for “select volunteers and club members” and a permit for staff of “directly adjacent businesses”.

As well as near Flinders pier, the parking trial will be held over summer at Schnapper Point, Mornington, and Sunnyside Beach, Mount Eliza.

Peninsula residents can apply for up to five permits a household but must abide by parking time limits.

Anyone else parking at the three beach side locations will be charged $6.20 an hour with a $19.50 maximum.

A parking app will allow visitors to pay for the time they have parked without the charge being rounded up to the nearest full hour rate, such as being charged $3.10 for 30 minutes.

Vehicles dropping off or picking up passengers or having been unable to find a car park will not be charged if staying 15 minutes or less.

Parking at Sunnyside and Flinders will be all day, while Schnapper Point will have two and four hour areas “to encourage turnover but also ensure all day parking opportunities remain”.

The shire says the parking rules can be amended during the trial and that a “successful review” of the paid parking trial could see it introduced at other foreshore car parks.

“These refined rules are designed to help reduce the impact of visitor paid parking on stakeholders within the pilot locations, while still achieving the aims of the pilot,” the mayor Cr Steve Holland said.

“We aim to have the pilot up and running during summer to capture important data over the peak visitation period.”

He said the three chosen car parks “meet important criteria to enable a successful pilot, including car park configuration to trial the technology and the ability to test a broad range of pilot rules on both sides of the peninsula”.

“The parking software technology for the pilot is currently being sourced. There is nothing to do for residents just yet. Council will advise once the permit process is up and running and ensure residents are supported to apply for their permit.”

Details about the paid parking trial are at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/parkingpilot

Walk for Suicide Prevention

Mornington Peninsula Shire is proud to partner with local suicide prevention network, Chasing Change, for its annual walk to commemorate World Suicide Prevention Day.

Homeless blamed for crime

Continued from Page 1

Maxwell said the cost-of-living crisis was impacting thousands of people across the peninsula.

“What I believe, and it stands to reason, is that the struggle to manage cost of living pressures has meant many people are desperately trying to find different ways to survive. Sadly, for a few, that probably includes crime,” he said.

“I think that if we were able to know all of the offenders, we would find that most of them would be housed but struggling. Yes, there will be some people committing crimes who are homeless but, in reality, most are victims of the cost of living crisis who have been forced to settle for a survival strategy of living rough or on a couch or in their car.

“For those of us who have good jobs or finances, we are privileged, let us not kid ourselves, we can easily make survival choices that don’t include crime.

“It seems to me that if we are truly concerned about crime then we should do everything in our power to help

Now in its sixth year, we invite the community to join us at this year’s event to connect, reflect and remember the lives of those lost to suicide.

people to live better not just survive. At the very least let’s all have some empathy and caring for those struggling to survive, instead of demonising. Why not offer a hand of help.”

Maxwell said mental health services the peninsula were “generally inadequate”, but for those who were homeless with mental health issues, outreach services were “non-existent”.

“If people think untreated mental health conditions will suddenly get better by themselves then they are out of touch with reality,” he said.

Mornington Peninsula Shire Council mayor Cr Steve Holland said the state government was responsible for the providing social and affordable housing but the council was advocating for an urgent investment by the state and federal governments in social and affordable housing on the peninsula, as well as crisis accommodation.

“We are also advocating for measures to balance the number of shortterm rentals and long-term rentals, and for funding for outreach workers to engage directly with residents at risk of becoming homeless.”

From 9am: grab a beverage and a bite to eat, catch up, get a ribbon, and check out the information stalls and kids activities.

At 10am: formalities will commence including guest speakers, a memorial roll call, and then the walk.

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council has strengthened its stand against the commercial harvesting of kangaroos on the peninsula.

At the 8 August council meeting councillors agreed to write to the state government to demand the banning of commercial kangaroo harvesting on the peninsula “by using the background information supplied to alert our community of the issues and to further inform the state government of the urgent need to protect the viability of kangaroos on the peninsula”.

Cr David Gill said there was an “urgent need to protect the viability of kangaroos on the peninsula”.

Gill’s motion followed a council decision on 30 May suggested by Cr Sarah Race to write to Environment Minister Lili D’Ambrosio urging her to make the peninsula a non-harvest zone, and that kangaroo counts and regular shooting “competency” tests be carried out to ensure “extinction of kangaroos does not occur”.

International animal protection group Animals Australia has praised the council for taking a stand on the mass killing of kangaroo.

The organisation’s director of development and global grants, Louise Bonomi, said that although local governments cannot change state-based wildlife policy and regulation, they can influence it by doing what the shire’s councillors have done – “taking a strong stand against activities that harm and kill wildlife in their shire, like the commercial kangaroo industry”.

Sunday 10 September 9-11.30am, Mornington Park (Schnapper Park Drive)

Sounding out live music’s future

THE tempo has increased in the push to establish the Mornington Peninsula as a major player on the live music scene within three years.

Musicians, promoters, studio owners and industry professionals were this week meeting with Mornington Peninsula Shire Council representatives to discuss the way forward.

Organiser Steve Myles said the forum’s objective was to start development of a strategy, key performance Indicators and associated actions. He said the objective aligned with and supports the vision stated in the council’s 2025 music plan.

“The Mornington Peninsula fosters a strong and vibrant music culture, recognised as one of the country’s premier regional destinations for local and touring musicians, while fostering a nurturing environment for grassroots participation,” he said.

Myles said the live music industry had suffered a blow from COVID lockdowns, but a comeback would inject life into the peninsula.

“A healthy local live music scene, both

professional and community-based, indicates that a region can sustain entrepreneurial creative industries, has strong social capital, and is culturally vibrant,” he said.

The forum is expected to discuss work done by other municipalities to reinvigorate their live music scenes, including research on the global live music scene, Music Victoria and the music plans of Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, and Frankston.

“This will assist with the work done in small groups to generate content for the strategy, key performance indicators, and associated actions,” Myles said.

“There is no magic wand, but a coalition of like-minded live industry professionals, with shared values and intentions, collaborating with industry stakeholders, has the potential to transform the peninsula’s live music industry.”

Interested people can register for the forum at the Peninsula Beer Garden in Rosebud between 9am to 11am this Wednesday (30 August) by phoning Steve Myles on 0418 599 636.

Going fishing for a comforting cause

A FISHING competition in honour of Jamerson Ross, who died on 8 October last year in a hit-and-run incident in Hastings, will be held from the 6 to 8 October in conjunction with the Western Port Angling Club.

Jamerson (known as Jammo) was a 23-year-old working in the marine electrical business Australian Integrated Marine when he died.

His mother Chantelle Ross said her son was a hard-working young man who also worked on weekends to save money. When not working hard was outdoors following his passion for fishing.

Jamerson had extensive fishing knowledge and experience in running and competing in fishing competitions and worked as a deckhand for Bay Fish N Trips for many years to broaden his knowledge.

“He was enthusiastically inclusive and encouraging with friends and family and took great satisfaction imparting his extensive fishing knowledge to all who were interested, especially his mates and young cousins,” Ross said.

She said her son preferred the outdoors to gaming or other electronic devices.

“He was a massive advocate for getting busy, living life to its fullest and enjoying the outdoors, hence the catch phrase ‘get busy living’,” she said.

“He never stood still, made the most of every moment, and had a huge amount of time and compassion for others.”

Jamerson’s parents were motivated to start the fishing competition in the hope that it will become an annual event to

inspire other young people, honour his legacy and motivate people to get out and about and live a healthy lifestyle.

A non-profit organisation, Projex J, has been established to raise money to care and support people grieving the loss of loved ones.

Organisers are expecting around 200 participants in the fishing competition.

“Since the loss of my son, it is evident that there is a need for greater support in navigating the torturous journey after the loss of a loved one,” Ross said.

“This prompted me to launch Projex J, and I am currently hosting monthly grief support groups in Mornington with a plan to provide more individualised care to anyone touched by grief in any capacity.

“Going on living without him was completely inconceivable and if it wasn’t for my amazing village of support that came from unexpected people, day after day offering unending support, I am not quite sure where myself and my family would be today.

“The aim of Projex J is to provide services to people suffering grief including child care, funeral arrangements, cooking, shopping, financial assistance, cleaning, moral support, and other practical assistance.”

Ross said Jamerson’s death had created a “ripple effect” across Victoria.

“I feel that it is important to give his peers a positive focus leading up to the first anniversary of his death in order to avoid groups of young people congregating at the incident site in Hastings,” she said.

Go ahead for new winery, restaurant

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council will grant a permit for a restaurant, winery and cellar door on green wedge land in Tuerong.

The $6 million project on 45 hectares at 111 Old Moorooduc Road, will include the cultivation of 14.21 hectares of vines, a double-storey restaurant open seven days a week from 11am to 11pm, and a separate winery production building.

An officer’s report found the proposed use and development of the winery and restaurant were supported by the shire’s planning policy, which supports the agricultural development of the land and the broader viticultural and tourism industry

of the peninsula.

It also found that conditions attached to a permit were sufficient to ensure protection of the environment and neighbourhood amenity

The winery and restaurant will include 60 car parking spaces and four bus parking spaces, with two sealed vehicle access points to be constructed on Old Moorooduc Road.

Twenty two hectares will be used for grazing cattle and sheep and 1.5 hectares will be developed into an orchard, requiring the removal of five trees within the subject site and 14 trees within the road reserve of Old Moorooduc Road.

Ending plastic waste

MORNINGTON Peninsula hospitality venues are being urged to be plastic free in support of a litter and waste-free summer.

The Boomerang Alliance program

Plastic Free Mornington Peninsula is inviting food businesses and events to commit to lowering their carbon footprint while reducing packaging costs over the next six to 12 months.

Mornington Peninsula facilitator Birte Moliere said much of the waste in the hospitality sector could be avoided by using alternatives and going plastic free.

“Through our One.Change Campaign, people are being encouraged to start with one simple step – reusable takeaways. In particular, making the switch to reusable cups, water bottles and bags,” Moliere said.

According to the alliance, more than 15,000 single-use cups are thrown out across the peninsula daily.

“Single-use coffee cups - even the certified compostable ones - are only used once before they end up as litter or are destined for landfill,” Moliere said.

“Despite all sorts of claims, they are almost never recycled. Single-use plastic is bad news for a business’s bottom line, our beaches and bays and people’s health due to plastics leaching toxins.”

According to the latest United Nations report Turning off the Tap 2023, global plastic pollution needs to be slashed by 80 per cent by 2040. Boomerang Alliance is calling for action by the federal, state and territory governments.

The alliance comprises 55 national, state and local organisations that share the goal of giving communities power and influence to reduce waste.

Waste on top as shire at ‘all time low’

ALTHOUGH Mornington Peninsula Shire has found little joy in the results of its the past two annual community satisfaction surveys, the same cannot be said for one of its most high profile contractors.

Waste collectors Solo Resource Recovery has been able to issue a news release saying the latest local government community satisfaction survey “highlighted the exceptional success of waste management services [in the shire], rating second overall behind art centres and libraries”.

The news release From trash to treasure: waste management services praised by locals, from Brisbane based BBS Communications Group, said the peninsula’s community, “young and old, have spoken, and waste management (including kerbside collection services) has emerged as one of the most highly rated services”.

“Showcasing the effectiveness of the council’s waste management initiatives, resident satisfaction with waste management in the Mornington Peninsula outperformed other service areas such as community and cultural services, tourism development, environmental sustainability, town planning, traffic and others in the 2023 survey,” BBS said.

The latest satisfaction survey saw the shire at an “all time low”, putting it “significantly lower” than the state average in nine out of 28 service areas as well as in customer service, value for money and overall performance (“Shire hits all time low in satisfaction” The News 3/10/22).

Since then, the shire has decided to commission four quarterly surveys which the mayor Cr Steve Holland says will provide “more timely feedback” (“‘Satisfaction’ surveys start this week” The News 11/7/23).

The Solo news release did give some ac-

knowledgement to the shire: “The success of waste collection in the Mornington Peninsula is a result of collaborative efforts between Solo Resource Recovery, local residents and the Mornington Peninsula Shire, who have all played a pivotal role in optimising the waste collection process.”

It went on to say how Hayley Meggyesy’s two-year-old son Artie “stands at the front window every week waiting for the waste collection trucks to pass and is never disappointed” as truck drivers driving “slowly” past their home return his waves.

A second resident, Amy Huffer, tells of a similar experience with her son, William.

“The drivers at Solo Resource Recovery are exceptional human beings, and the care they take with the children that come out to watch them do their job is awesome,” Huffer said.

Two of the truck drivers are named and quoted about their day’s being “made” by being able to bring smiles to children’s faces.

“I’ve met a lot of nice people that I see every week, and to get that great feedback from them and see the kid’s faces light up when we come down their street makes this work really rewarding,” driver David Guerin is quoted as saying.

Solo’s peninsula operations supervisor Franz Meister said the community satisfaction survey “serves as a crucial barometer for assessing the quality and satisfaction of services offered to residents”.

“The results of the most recent survey, and in fact surveys of past years, reiterates the significant progress made in partnership with the council creating a clean, sustainable, and environmentally responsible waste management service … It is truly a valued acknowledgment from residents, and it reflects our dedication to providing top- tier waste management solutions that prioritise the needs of residents while embracing sustainable practices.”

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

THURSDAY EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPES

ABC TV, 8.30pm

Presenter Sandi Toksvig (pictured, QI) has well and truly settled into an agreeable groove in the third season of this gallivanting travel show. While visiting gorgeous locations with interesting guests – so far, the Republic of Ireland with Eddie Izzard, Wales with Roisin Conaty – the lively chatter and banter is the real thrill of this show, along with the jaw-dropping British scenery. Tonight, Sandi is joined by comedian and writer Rosie Jones (The Last Leg) on an adventure in the Midlands.

FRIDAY

MINISERIES: THE CONTROL ROOM

ABC TV, 8.30pm

Meet Gabe, an ordinary emergency call centre worker in Glasgow, whose life is about to be turned inside out in this breakneck, moody thriller. Scotsman Iain De Caestecker (pictured, The Winter King) radiates fear as Gabe – inevitably you’ll begin wishing you hadn’t got caught up in his twisting and turning predicament. Thankfully, this gritty yet expertly pieced together puzzle is told in just three succinct parts.

SUNDAY PLAY SCHOOL: HUMPTY AND DAD

ABC TV PLUS, 9am

Funnyman Hamish Blake (pictured) has carved his career out of being a big kid at heart. Blake brings his trademark charm to this Father’s Day episode, a special for kids and dads alike. It’s a celebration of fatherly love, with Humpty Dumpty and his own bespectacled father joining Blake for songs, games and stories. It’s a sweet way to kick off dad’s day.

MONDAY MY KITCHEN RULES

SEVEN, 7.30pm

It’s one thing for contestants to behave in a sterile studio environment, where cameras follow their every move, but out in the real world – or even better, in their own home – all bets are off. Back for its 13th season, this stalwart of Australia’s crowded cooking show landscape once again sees real people open up their homes to judges Manu Feildel and Colin Fassnidge and their fellow contestants, with a return to the format’s original recipe – each state is represented by a team of two.

Tonight, WA’s “just friends” team Tommy and Rach (pictured) are hoping for a perfect score.

Parking questions

Cr David Gill valiantly tried to get the Flinders pier paid parking pilot removed, but seven of the nine [Mornington Peninsula Shire] councillors preferred the “not in my backyard” principle and thought Flinders was an ideal site (“Flinders keeps its spot in paid parking trial” The News 15/8/23).

How the parking fees for 90 spaces is going to make much of a contribution to the $1,000,000 cost to the rate paying residents beats me. And how meaningful will the data be and relevant to the rest of Western Port?

We have asked the shire if sailing visitors who drive through the car park to get to the yacht club will be charged for parking even if they are not? Will people stopping to buy mussels or oysters be charged a parking fee? Will the Sea Shepherd and volunteers who arrive to clean up the beach and under the water and pier be charged during a big planned environmental clean-up in January? How will parking be controlled for the Pier and Pinot event, which is organised by Victorian Tourism and peninsula wineries?

We wait in suspended anticipation for words of wisdom. Neil Hallam, Flinders

Injustices ignored

It is disappointing and I believe the five points raised are racist, some more obvious than others, but people are being asked to vote on the Voice on race rather than to change the constitution to recognise the First Peoples of this great land as the original custodians (“Approach with logic” Letters 22/8/23).

The third point, whether intended or not, ignores the injustices our First Nations people are suffering and the first two points, which to myself comes off as irrational, but makes it clear enough that disparity of health and wellbeing of firsts nations people are not of a concern to the author.

If in doubt, asking others to vote on the consideration of race is in fact racist.

I will be voting Yes, and I acknowledge the Boonwurrung/Bunurong people of the Kulin nation as the custodians of the land on which we meet and pay our respect to their elders past and present and emerging. Craig Thomson, Rye

A fairer society

As someone who is not of ATSI (Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander) ancestry, I do not feel that

I should be deciding what is right or wrong for ATSI communities. For too long, white Australians have told ATSI people what is “good for them”, without asking what is needed by the community themselves.

Giving an autonomous voice to ATSI people to speak for themselves is the minimum that should be done to acknowledge the past and correct the present.

invite you to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future.” Accompanying the statement in full public view at ulurustatement.org/our-story/ are the extra pages in the form of seven chapters – law, invasion, resistance, mourning, activism, land rights and Makarrata – entitled Our Story.

Finalist’s creative path to awards

STELLA Mars has conquered many difficulties in her short life, not the least being literacy and academic mastery that’s not always associated with people living with autism or ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder).

A finalist for this year’s Mornington Peninsula Mayor's Short Story Writing Award in the eight to 12 years old category, the Mount Eliza girl has shown that she has a strong driving force determination to succeed.

The nine-year-old already considers herself a professional creative who knows where her talents lie and the obstacles she faces.

"I really enjoyed writing my story and I am proud of it. It took me quite a long time to write my piece because of my ADHD and my autism,” Mars said. “I would write for 15 minutes on paper with my favourite pens and then I would need to go into our garden and have a movement break. It was hard but fun work. The garden helps me clear my mind to think of new ideas."

Stella is also a visual artist and has sold many pieces of art and exhibited her works in several galleries.

A student at the Retreat to Art studio in Mount Eliza, she attends confidence building classes and spends every spare hour at home being artistic: drawing, painting, writing, singing, dancing and exploring her family vegetable garden with her dog Lola.

"I feel really lucky to have the chance to explore everything I am interested in doing. My parents are very cool and help me so much with managing my autism and ADHD and all the creative things I want to achieve,” she said.

Stella is working on writing and illustrating a picture book about her struggles as a child with autism and combined ADHD.

"I hope everyone who reads the book when I finish it will learn a little bit and become more understanding of it (ASD and ADHD). I want this book to help people like me feel noticed and listened to." Liz Bell

At present, ATSI people do not have equal opportunities to the average Australian because of generations of imposed hardship and trauma. Giving this representative opportunity will move all Australians towards a more equitable and fair society.

No freedom of information request is needed. It provides a useful context from a First Peoples perspective. We’ve been deceived before about a carbon tax and we lost a decade of climate action. Let’s not be deceived again. We’ll break the hearts of many and lose international respect.

‘Heart’ one page

It has been claimed that the Uluru Statement from the Heart is 26 pages, and we should be fearful of its contents. It has also been claimed that the Prime minister is lying to us on the Voice and that freedom of information was needed to uncover the “full Uluru Statement”. This is at best mischievous and at worst deliberately deceptive.

The actual statement is one page in length and ends graciously and naturally with “We

Hope for understanding

The debate over the Yes or No [referendum] vote has already begun in Australia.

While the country is generally tolerant, specific individuals are making racist remarks that are disturbing.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of misunderstanding, but hopefully, common sense will prevail, and the Australian people will understand the implications of their vote.

Young producers behind TV show

YOUNG people from the Mornington Peninsula will feature in an episode of artsbus, a six-episode television series made by Artists for Kids Culture, an organisation dedicated to engaging youngsters disadvantaged by geographic, social and financial reasons, with art. The episode featuring a group of young people from around Rosebud and Dromana will air on Channel 31 on 5 September.

The artsbus show is produced, directed and stars children and teens, showcasing creativity and views from the emerging generation.

Kylie Greer, director and executive officer for Artists for Kids Culture, said producing the episodes gave children and young people a platform for selfexpression, connection and exploration of television

production and presentation.

She said the Rosebud episode included a talk with Australian director Fred Schepisi, Yorta Yorta/Wamba Wamba/Mutti Mutti/Boonwurrung woman Maree Clarke, from Arthurs Seat, golf advice from Molly McLean (year 11 Dromana Secondary College champion golfer), Rise Dance Coaching at Hastings, and vox pops from February’s Peninsula Film Festival.

Ready to air: Participants in the production of the artsbus Mornington Peninsula episode are Fallon, Amelia, Taylr, Tillie (Koori captain at Dromana Secondary College), Hudson (former year 12 student and Living Culture employee), Corey and Shaylie (Koori captain at Dromana Secondary College).

Football - Frankston beat Somerville decisively

Compiled by Cameron McCullough CONDITIONS were perfect for football on Saturday last and a big crowd witnessed the first semi-final match between Somerville and Frankston at Somerville.

The special train chartered by the Frankston club was well patronised.

In the first two contests between these two clubs Somerville defeated Frankston rather easily – the first game Somerville scored 9.7 to 6.12; the second, 13.10 to 4.0; whilst Frankston had their revenge in the third match.

Somerville had a strong eighteen in the field, but Frankston were minus Arthur Gamble, who is on the injured list, and this sturdy follower’s assistance was sadly missed in the ruck, although on this occasion Frankston held their own in this department.

Frankston opened the first quarter with sparkling football, and within a few minutes of the start had scored a goal.

The game was rather fast and lashes of good systematic football was shown by both sides.

May (Frankston) in the centre, was brilliant all through the game, whilst Bagley (Somerville) half-forward, was marking and kicking well.

Frankston’s fine combination and passing always gave them a decided advantage, although one or two players were inclined to hold the ball a little too long.

Ray Baxter, on the forward line was unbeatable, and Ted Reynolds was showing some of his old cleverness as the game progressed.

The Somerville cracks, Hassett and McConville, were playing clever football, but the team on the whole lacked

the dash of the opponents.

Somerville played a hard, plugging game throughout, but were handicapped by the slowness of their forwards.

With the advantage of the slight breeze Frankston scored 4.4 to 2.5 at the first change.

The second quarter was more evenly contested, but Frankston continued to show better concertedness, and were putting plenty of vigor into their efforts.

Emerson was excellent in defence for Frankston, his skyscraping marks being a bright feature.

Tyree, Sullivan and Norm Unthank (Somerville) were conspicuous this term in their respective places, and seldom failed to put the ball to good purpose.

Bagley, also shone out, and was applauded repeatedly for his skill.

Half-time scores showed Frankston exactly 2 goals to the good: 8.9 to 6.9. The quarter scores being: Frankston, 4.5; Somerville, 4.4.

The third quarter opened again with Frankston in the ascendancy.

McComb brothers, Dess, May and Pike, all coming under notice with good individual efforts, and Vagg, full back (a novel position for this rather diminutive player) was pleasing.

Frankston scored 3.2 to 1.2 this term, which gave them a lead of 4 goals.

The final term, Frankston, with the slight wind in their favor, still put on pressure and completely outclassed their opponents; the Frankston forwards doing excellent work, and the team on the whole showing something like premiership form.

The game up to this stage had been

played in a most friendly spirit, and a slight misunderstanding between two opposing players was soon quelled, and the game proceeded peacefully.

Somerville were trying hard to reduce that 24–point majority, but Frankston were too fast, and finished better.

They put on 5.1 to 1.2 this term, the final scores being: Frankston, 16 goals 12 behinds. Somerville, 8 goals 13 behinds.

May played brilliantly for the winners in the centre, whilst Ray Baxter was equally successful on the forline, being ably assisted by Reynolds, although a little too anxious at times.

Emerson also played excellently, whilst McComb brothers, Golds, Vagg, Kidgell, Kyne, Williams, Dess, Pike (until hurt), and Coxall (at times) were the best of the others.

Bagley was the most outstanding player for Somerville, whilst Hassett, McConville, Tyree, Sullivan, N. Unthank and Mentiplay were also prominent.

Beaumont, as umpire, gave general satisfaction. Somerville received 66 “frees” and Frankston 41 – a total of 107.

Stacks On! In Your Face with a Business Case

HUZZAH! Christina Aguilera is coming to perform a one-off show in Melbourne later this year. The breathless announcement came earlier this week and made clear that this event is not a result of mere happenstance but has come to be because of a fabulous Government initiative. Hooray for everyone! But as overwhelmed with excitement as I am to the point of being barely able to function, given the recent somewhat unpleasant business involving a major international sporting event being dumped with all the dignity of a soiled mattress, it’s incumbent on all of us to ask one, simple question – does the business case stack up?

I’ll be honest; there was a time when I thought a ‘business case’ was the thing you used to take your lunch to work. When I got my first office job, my business case was one I’d acquired from a second-hand store. It was old and falling apart. At one point, the handle unravelled; meaning that when I carried it, errant staples dug into the palm of my hand. Then the bottom fell out, along with my lunch. It was at that point that I decided that this particular business case no longer stacked up and I replaced it with a satchel.

I’ve since become aware that a business case is a key determinant as to whether something should or shouldn’t happen. Often, they’re associated with large-scale events but there’s no reason why they couldn’t also help inform everyday activities. Just yesterday, I declined to unload the dishwasher because the business case didn’t stack up. This was in stark contrast to the dishes themselves, which stacked up quite neatly. Having weighed up the likely economic cost and benefit of emptying the dishwasher, I concluded that the most fiscally responsible course from here on out would be to eat with my hands. It’s working a treat.

I’m beginning to see everything in a completely different light. I’ve decided that before I next agree to put the bins out, I should refer the ques-

tion to an inquiry and see what the experts have to say. From there, I’ll probably form some kind of committee to reject the report before engaging a second set of more expensive experts to give me another report that recommends the development of a business case. Granted, by the time it’s done, there may well be rubbish piled up to the roof, but if I do ultimately decide to take the bins out, it’ll be a decision that’s supported by the best information available. There’ll be no question that it stacks up.

For those of you who think the very idea of a business case is as interesting as sewing a button or cleaning the lint from your uncle’s favourite jacket, I can only say that you are monstrously

mistaken. A business case is so much more that a set of figures and financial analysis. A decent business case is like a wild stallion that is prone to being spooked and easily startled. It’s for this reason that opposing sides to an argument can have conflicting views on whether a particular business case stacks up or stacks down.

But what recent weeks have demonstrated is that you no longer need two opposing sides to have conflicting views over a business case. Rather, you need only one side and about fifteen months to undergo the metamorphosis from ‘stacked’ to ‘unstacked’. This, it must be said, is groundbreaking.

Previously, I was unaware that a business case

could, in effect, go off like a carton of milk in the sun if given enough time. Who was responsible for leaving the business case out of the fridge has, to date, not been satisfactorily answered and, I feel, whether or not an answer will or won’t be given may, of itself, be the subject of a business case.

Clearly, a business case can be a volatile thing, capable of turning at any moment, striking out at anyone unfortunate enough to be standing nearby. What’s not clear is how something that, last year, stacked up, was a short time later found to be wanting; failing to stack up to the point of complete collapse. Like fiscal Jenga, did someone pull out a vital block that caused the entire business case stack to collapse? Who can say?

But if there’s anything that the calamitous experience of not hosting the Commonwealth Games has taught us, it’s that you should always have a Plan B. I, for one, do not want a situation where Christina Aguilera is turned away at customs after arriving at Tullamarine Airport. Luckily, I have the perfect solution.

As a teenager, I was in a band called 20/20 Vision. Once we played the Hastings Day Parade on a flatbed truck. We stood on the back of that thing, trying to keep our balance as the generator powered our amps and guitars. People loved it. Mostly they loved the fact that we were moving and they only had to suffer through our original songs for a few seconds before we were gone, but they loved it all the same.

If, God forbid, the business case should unexpectedly unstack itself before the big performance, my hope is that we can dig out the flatbed and the generator and send Christina Aguilera sailing down High Street Hastings on a Saturday morning. Granted, she’s a fabulous artist who deserves more than a flatbed truck. But I figure while it may not be ‘Beautiful’, at least it stacks up.

Steady hands: Frankston YCW were too good for Pines, clinching a 67-point win.

Bulls crash out of finals, Stonecats succeed

MPNFL

DIVISION ONE

MT Eliza knocked Frankston Bombers out of the finals on Sunday.

It was a cagey affair at Olympic Park. The Bombers went into the halftime break ahead by ten points.

Mt Eliza broke the game open in the third term. A four-goals-to-zero quarter saw Mt Eliza go ahead by 15.

The Redlegs held onto their lead in the final term, and went on to claim an 11 point win 8.7 (55) to 6.8 (44). Nicholas MacDonald Girolami, Nathan Jones, and Finlay Bayne were Mt Eliza’s best.

Frankston YCW won the qualifying final at Baxter Park last Saturday.

The Stonecats raced out of the gates to a big early lead, and never looked like losing. Pines were never able to recover from their poor start.

Frankston YCW picked up a comprehensive 67 point win 18.14

(122) to 8.7 (55).

This weekend, Dromana and Frankston YCW will play off for a Grand Final spot. Olympic Park hosts the heavyweight match-up on Saturday, with the game beginning at 2.15pm. Pines and Mt Eliza will play at RJ Rowley Reserve on Sunday from 2.15pm.

DIVISION TWO

KARINGAL have crashed out of the 2023 finals series.

The Bulls had a brilliant homeand-away season. They lost just three games all year, and finished second on the ladder.

After a first round finals loss to Somerville, the Bulls were faced with a do-or-die clash against Devon Meadows last Sunday. Chelsea Recreation Reserve hosted the match.

Goals were hard to come by all day for both sides. Inaccuracy ended up costing Karingal their season.

Devon Meadows defeated Karingal

by 10 points - 4.13 (37) to 6.11 (47). A goalless final term sealed Karingal’s fate.

Somerville booked their Grand Final spot on Saturday with an upset win over Mornington.

Somerville played Mornington at RJ Rowley Reserve on Saturday with a place in the Grand Final on the line. The Bulldogs led at each break of play. They took a three point lead into the final term.

A five-goals-to-one final quarter saw Somerville run away with the game. They beat the Bulldogs by 20 points 7.14 (56) to 10.16 (76).

Kane McKenzie, Jesse WalkerSwain, Thomas Murphy, Jaxsen Shinners, and Daniel Marshall were Somerville’s best. Marshall scored three goals. Mornington will get another chance on Saturday when they take on Devon Meadows in the preliminary final. RJ Rowley Reserve will host the match from 2.15pm. The winner plays Somerville the following Saturday.

Clubs reject expansion for 2024

THE MPFNL will not be expanded in 2024.

Earlier this year, the MPFNL sought expressions of interest from clubs who wished to join the league in 2024. The expansion proposal was rejected by the incumbent MPFNL clubs last week.

Cranbourne, Frankston Dolphins, Narre Warren, Pakenham, South Mornington, and Carrum Patterson Lakes are understood to be the teams

which had their bids for MPFNL acceptance rejected.

Frankston Dolphins released a statement on its Facebook page last week after the decision was made.

“The Committee was informed last night that Mornington Peninsula Football Netball League club presidents had voted for no further expansion of their league for the 2024 season. As a result, our application to join the MPFNL was denied,” the

Slim chance of Pines staying up

SOCCER

FRANKSTON Pines remain hopeful of escaping relegation from State 2 South-East despite finishing second bottom after last weekend’s final league round.

Goals from Tom Hawkins and Joe O’Connor weren’t enough to overcome second-placed Brandon Park and Pines had to settle for a 2-2 draw at Freeway Reserve on Saturday.

The 2023 rules of competition make grim reading for Pines but all promotion and relegation is at the discretion of Football Victoria and a number of scenarios are yet to be played out.

“No-one really knows what lies ahead,” Pines head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor said.

Rumours abound of a second-tier national club competition getting underway next season and this has the potential to impact the current league set-up throughout the NPL and State Leagues.

Taylor reflected on a season of missed opportunity and wouldn’t be drawn on speculation surrounding his future at Monterey Reserve.

“I just want to say that I’m very proud of the way the lads battled till the final whistle on the last day of the season,” he said.

“It’s unfortunate that ultimately we had to rely on results elsewhere.

“On reflection we had ample opportunities to win or at least draw games that would have made us safe, but it just wasn’t to be.”

On a positive note Pines’ All Abilities program is now the largest in the state with 50 registered players.

The program entered three teams this year and won all three competitions.

In other State 2 news Peninsula Strikers may have missed out on promotion but the local club was still celebrating after its reserves won the championship with a 1-1 draw against title challenger Hampton East Brighton at Dendy Park on Saturday.

The match was the 100th and final appearance for club stalwart Michael Nugent who debuted for Strikers in 2017.

Strikers’ seniors had a come-frombehind 3-2 win to finish fifth on the ladder.

But failure to defend two set pieces had Strikers 2-0 down in the first halfhour.

The fightback started with a wellworked move in the 35th minute that saw Wayne Gordon whip in a ball for Riley Anderton to smash home on the

volley.

A

bullet header from a Gordon corner in the 55th minute made it 2-2 and Anderton nabbed the winner in the 88th minute by converting a penalty for handling inside the area.

But it took a penalty save by Strikers’ keeper Ben Caballero in the final minute to seal the win.

Skye United’s State 2 status remained intact after Saturday’s 1-0 home win over Knox City.

Mark O’Connor’s precise first half free-kick found Alex Van Heerwarden sliding in and prodding the ball home at the back post.

In State 1 Mornington and champion FC Melbourne drew 1-1 at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday.

Mornington led at half-time thanks to top scorer Rory Currie.

In the 40th minute the ball fell to him after good work down the right by Liam Quinn and Currie swivelled and buried a right-foot strike into the top corner.

The visitors hit back in the 50th minute with a wonder strike from their best player Marko Basic.

Sudoku and crossword solutions

Mornington hit the post and the bar late in the contest but couldn’t break the deadlock.

In State 4 Baxter’s spectacular 8-1 thumping of visitor Springvale City on Saturday wasn’t enough to win a second-spot finish and a promotion play-off as Sandringham beat Somerville Eagles 4-2 at Spring Street Oval.

A Jack Elliott hat-trick underpinned this huge win.

Brodie Taylor played in a more attacking role and opened the scoring in the 3rd minute heading home from a Keegan Myatt corner.

By the 16-minute mark it was 4-0 and game over.

Elliott put Myatt through for 2-0, Elliott hit a superb long-range shot into the top far corner for the third and Jarrod Nardino’s long bomb downfield put Dylan Murchie through and he neatly lifted the ball over Springvale keeper Sammy Salah for the fourth goal.

An Elliott cross in the 32nd minute wasn’t cleared and Myatt on the turn hammered the ball home and a minute later the woeful Springvale defence gifted Murchie with his second.

Coaching conundrum: Frankston Pines head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor wouldn’t respond to questions about his plans for next season.

with a 6-2 win.

Carlo Melino’s curtain call as Chelsea coach ended with a 3-0 away loss to champion side White Star Dandenong on Saturday.

“It was an emotional day,” Melino said.

“I think I’ve left the club in a better state than when I arrived and I think we’ve been able to build a proper senior team and a culture that can have an impact for years to come.”

In State 5 local clubs marked significant landmarks with Mentone finishing runner-up and clinching promotion, Seaford United earning a promotion play-off spot with a thirdplaced finish and Rosebud, Aspendale and Mount Martha amassing their biggest ever State League points tally.

A depleted Mentone earned a credible point in a 1-1 draw with runaway champions Hampton Park United at Mentone Grammar Sportsground with both goals coming in the first half.

Hampton led after five minutes when Joshua Caruana robbed Tyler Pollard and ran unchallenged to finish past Mentone custodian Quinn Carter.

However Marcus Spivey equalised on 30 minutes bustling past two Hampton defenders before drilling a low shot into the net.

Rosebud beat visitor Mount Eliza 3-1 in a tight contest at Olympic Park on Saturday.

Five minutes into the second half Myatt put Elliott through and he headed the ball past stranded Salah then tapped it into the unguarded goal for 7-0.

Elliott completed his hat-trick in the 70th minute with a headed goal and the visitors’ sole reply came from the penalty spot four minutes later.

Baxter head coach Stephen Fisher will speak to the club and his players over the next few days before making a decision regarding his tenure.

Somerville head coach Adam Steele was suspended so Brandt Mulholland was in charge against Sandringham.

Sandy dominated the first half and led 3-0 at the break but Somerville hit back in the second half with goals from Nick Simmons and a Marcus Anastasiou penalty.

Somerville keeper Nick Bucello saved a Sandringham penalty but was beaten in the 79th minute after Josh Simmons failed to clear and his sliced attempt fell to Sandy winger Sam Ghobrial who gave the home side breathing space again.

Somerville reserves finished off their championship-winning season

Noah Musso, Louis Bisogni and Davis Markulin scored for the home side while David Popa hit the mark for Mount Eliza.

Musso’s goal clinched league Golden Boot honours for the young striker. A much improved second half display enabled Mount Martha to fight back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with visitors Casey Panthers on Saturday.

Anton Beeby made it 2-1 in the 46th minute after being set-up by Finn Tweedie’s driving run through midfield.

Eli Masterson came off the bench to smash home a fine finish just inside the box in the 64th minute following a great run down the left wing by Jaden Tabener.

Aspendale’s season ended with a 5-1 away loss to Bunyip District last weekend with Kailan Smith scoring for Aspendale.

Seaford United had a bye in the final round but will face Old Melburnians in a promotion play-off.

The date, venue and kick-off time was being finalised as we went to press.
