REPRESENTATIVES of 30 Morning-ton Peninsula aged care providers last week attended a specially convened meeting with Assistant Minister for Social Services Senator Mitch Fifi eld to voice their concerns over sweeping federal government changes to the aged care sector.

Federal member for Dunkley Bruce Billson invited Senator Fifi eld to brief the gathering of senior executives rep-resenting aged care centres across the peninsula following implantation of a range of “user pays” changes to sector.

The national Living Longer, Living Better aged care reforms, which came into force on 1 July, could see some el-derly residents of aged-care homes pay up to 50 per cent more in fees.

The most signifi cant change is a new

means-test to determine each resident’s “fair contribution, if any, to their care and accommodation, based on both their assets and income”, Senator Fi-fi eld said.

The new means-test arrangements will also apply to home care.

Other changes include more home care packages to help older people stay in their own homes, more choice to pay for accommodation and services, such as daily payments and refundable de-

posits, and transparent accommodation prices and services, with all residential aged-care providers required to pub-lish the maximum amount they charge.

No one will pay more than $25,000 a year or a $60,000 lifetime fee for means-tested residential care, while family homes will be exempt from the means test if there is a spouse or other protected person still living there.

The changes have been largely wel-comed by the sector, however ques-

tions have been asked over the sudden-ness of the policy’s introduction, with service providers scrambling to get “up to speed”.

Mr Billson said the round table pro-vided a “great opportunity” for the peninsula’s for-profi t and not-for-profi t aged care providers to bring “impor-tant matters” to the attention of Sena-tor Fifi eld.

Accusations fly over bird saleAccusations fly over bird sale

On show: Parrots for sale at the at the bird “sale and expo” run in May by Mornington Peninsula Avicultural Society.

MORE than feathers are being ruffl ed among bird breeders following allega-tions of mistreatment of birds offered for sale last month at Skye.

Paris Yves has complained to the RSPCA and Department of Environ-ment and Primary Industries about the cruel treatment of parrots being dis-played in small, inadequate boxes.

A long time campaigner against mis-treatment of birds either kept as pets of for breeding, Ms Yves, of Mt Eliza, says she has been bullied since going public with her latest complaints.

The bird “sale and expo” at the West-ern Port Highway headquarters of Dogs Victoria was run by the Morning-ton Peninsula Avicultural Society on Sunday 25 May.

The society’s president, David Ren-shaw, did not want to comment on the allegations by Ms Yves without fi rst discussing it with the society’s com-mittee.

“I’m not prepared to give you a com-ment without prior notice,” he said.

He said the matter had been placed in the hands of a solicitor.

Mr Renshaw said all bird sales were run under a code of practice, which was “scrutinised by scrutineers”.

Photographs taken by Ms Yves at the bird sale show a large sign stating a code of practice administered by the Victorian Avicultural Council.

However, Ms Yves said it was un-satisfactory to have the VAC “policing themselves”.

“It is inexcusable that most birds -

except the Gouldian fi nches in the love-ly great aviary - were displayed in such an unethical way,” she said.

“It was truly like walking through the back streets of an Indian market.

“I am amid a public campaign so that Australians can fi nally discover the truth about companion bird abuse and lack of welfare and lack of laws. There is no going back now.”

Ms Yves’s emails to and discussions with breeders had come down to se-mantics, with some breeders claiming birds kept for breeding purposes were not companion birds. She says the law does not differentiate between the terms.

A cockatoo breeder, “who also admit-ted that there are welfare problems at bird sales”, referred to birds at the sale

as aviary birds and not pet birds.“There is legally no difference. The

DEPI welfare codes clearly includes all captive/caged birds,” Ms Yves said.

“I don’t think you will get a response from the market organisers - they are in damage control. Since they have breached all codes there is nothing posi-tive they can say, the damage is done.

“The VAC failed terribly and has lost

all credibility, which is why I am re-ceiving bullying and rude emails.”

Letters published in this month’s edi-tion of Talking Birds magazine appear to confi rm Ms Yves’s complaints about the expo.

An anonymous letter writer from South Australia admits the bird boxes “could have been a bit bigger” but goes on to say small boxes are safer for birds and that the birds “may be distressed, but from other noises and movement, not because they are ill”.

“Yes, there are some who break the rules, which is then used against oth-ers because one bad apple corrupts the rest,” the letter states.

A second letter by J Milosevic (via email) says there is no doubt about Ms Yves’s good intentions and then refers to guidelines “which, unfortunately, were ignored in the case of the photos in her email”.

“Guidelines and rules exist but are often ignored and I found it rather iron-ic that the sale where the women took the photos in her email had a large ban-ner setting out the rules prominently displayed … what is the point of words on that banner when the rules were not enforced at that event?

“If that had been done she would have had no ammunition which could be used to attack sales, demanding that they be banned.

“Well, now it has happened and I hope that you keep track of what the state bodies do from now on about run-ning sales properly, because it is obvi-ous that at least one, the Victorian mob, has lost the plot.”

A MAN revered as junior coaching “royalty” spoke to Mt Martha Junior Football Club’s 12 coaches, assistants and team managers last week as part of a coaching development strategy.

Ray Carroll earned the title af-ter coaching Assumption College, Kilmore’s 1st XVIII footballers and 1st XI cricketers to an astonishing 47 premierships in the Associated Gram-mar Schools Victoria. Locally, The Peninsula School is part of the AGSV.

Carroll’s junior coaching dates back 55 years to when he took charge of the cricket team. He was then a teacher and boarding master.

Carroll spoke of the evolution of the two sports in terms of what coaching today’s children is like compared to the 60s and 70s. “Today’s children have so many more distractions than 20 and 30 years ago,” he said. “The advent of other sports, electronics and time-poor parents has seen the management and development of junior sports people be-come increasingly more challenging.”

He was adamant that, for a team to succeed, the bottom third in terms of ability and commitment were those to whom the coaches should direct most attention. “Too many coaches devote too much of their time to working with the top and middle third, however, the better coaches know that the greatest achievement is in seeing the children with lesser skills and confi dence grow and become the backbone of the team.”

Carroll spoke about making sport enjoyable for children, teaching them to not only play the game but also to teach them about developing their individual characters to last through their adult years. This is spelled out through sportsmanship, effort, being humble

and gracious and adopting a team man-tra of ‘We not I’.

Mt Martha, the largest club in the Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League, was thrilled when Lachie Whitfi eld was taken by Greater Western Sydney as No. 1 pick in the 2012 AFL draft. “It is vital to the development of

boys and girls that Mt Martha continues to develop its coaches,” president War-ren Davies said.

Former Assumption boy and Geelong forward Bill Brownless once said of Carroll, “He’s been a teacher, mentor, and virtually a second dad for a lot of the boys who played cricket and footy.

Some of the greats of the VFL/AFL current and past owe a lot to his coaching and devotion, including Michael Barlow, Francis Bourke, the late Peter Crimmins, Neale Daniher, Peter ‘Crackers’ Keenan, Simon O’Donnell, David King and Shane Crawford.”

Rotary’s new headRotary’s new headALAN Thompson, above, is the new president of Mt Eliza Rotary Club.

Mr Thompson, the club’s 44th pres-ident, took over from Sander Vandeth at a changeover dinner at Norwood House, Mt Eliza, on Tuesday 1 July.

Now 71, Mr Thompson spent his early career in banking in Australia and the United Kingdom before being appointed manager of the Frankston offi ce of Dalgety Australia in 1974.

In 1979 he obtained his commercial pilot’s licence and spent nearly 30 years in aircraft sales before retiring in 2008.

He lives with his wife Judy in Mt Eliza and, apart from “devoting a great deal of time to Rotary”, lists his pastimes as gardening, being a handy-man around the home, reading, tennis and travel.

Mr Thompson plans to oversee the formation of a new satellite Rotary club in the area aimed at attracting members in the 30-50 age group.

The club also wants to build a rotunda or bandstand in Rotary Park, Mt Eliza “to enhance the park and to provide a focus for activities there”.

The project will be partly fi nanced with $3000 each from the discretion-ary funds of Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors Anne Shaw and Andrew Dixon.

New imam New imam at mosqueat mosqueSYED Wadood Janud has been appointed imam at the Ahmadiyya Muslim community’s mosque in Langwarrin.

Mr Janud, the fi rst Australian Ah-madiyya missionary, completed his primary and secondary schooling in Adelaide before attaining his degree in Islamic theology and comparative religions in Canada.

The seven-year course at the Ah-madiyya Institute of Islamic Studies, in Maple, Canada, was followed by six months as an imam of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Liberia.

Mr Janud sees his main role at the Ahmadiyya Centre Melbourne in Langwarrin (formally known as Bait-ul-Salam or House of Peace) as being “to lead prayers and train members in religious matters, but I would also work for interfaith harmony and to build bridges between communities”.

“My life is devoted to the cause of peace, harmony and love for all, hatred for none, and my doors will always be open to the community members for any help and advice.”

The president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association Victoria, Javed Safdar Choudhary, said the appoint-ment of the new imam at Langwarrin “dawns a new era in our efforts to work closely on community relations and make bridges”.

Al Islam, the “offi cial” website of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, describes the community as “the lead-ing Islamic organisation to categori-cally reject terrorism in any form”

with its then leader, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, more than a century ago de-claring “that an aggressive ‘jihad by the sword’ has no place in Islam”.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Commu-nity’s headquarters are in the United

Kingdom and, according to the website, it has built more than 15,000 mosques, more than 500 schools, and more than 30 hospitals and trans-lated the Quran into more than 70 languages.

MORNINGTON Peninsula residents and businesses are no closer to fi nding out when or how they will be connected to the National Broadband Network, despite a visit to the region last week by Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

Mr Turnbull, who spent the day in Frankston on Wednesday at the invita-tion of federal member for Dunkley Bruce Billson to inspect progress on the rollout of the NBN, said a precise time-table for the peninsula was still being assessed but that the region had been identifi ed as a top Coalition priority.

The type of technology to be used to provide broadband services to the pen-insula was also yet to be determined, Mr Turnbull said, adding that “a range of options” would be explored.

Mr Turnbull said NBN Co, the com-pany overseeing the national broadband network, had advised the government that to deliver services sooner and a lower cost to both taxpayers and con-sumers, a “multi-technology mix” would need to be used.

“This will match the right technol-ogy to the right location and make use of existing networks where possible to deliver very fast broadband,” he said.

For the peninsula, the “technology mix” is expected to include some fi bre, existing copper networks and satellite, or wi-fi .

Mr Turnbull and Mr Billson visited a site in Frankston South where contrac-tors are laying fi bre optic cables that will

Where’s our NBN, Mr Turnbull?Where’s our NBN, Mr Turnbull?Chris [email protected]

see about 8000 homes and businesses connected to the high-speed broadband network by the end of the year.

The rollout, covering an area of Frankston South and Karingal, is Frankston’s fi rst under the Coalition government’s “fi bre to the node” mod-el, which replaces the former Labor government’s plan to connect homes directly to the NBN network.

As with the peninsula, it is still un-known when the rest of Frankston, including the city centre, will be con-nected to the NBN network.

However, Mr Turnbull said it would

be far sooner – and cheaper - than would have been the case under the Labor plan.

He said the Coalition government was “determined” to see the NBN rolled out fi rst to areas most in need, such as the Frankston and peninsula region, which has been dogged by poor internet ac-cess and mobile phone coverage.

“The NBN roll out is progressing well in Dunkley and I'm pleased to an-nounce build preparation has started to a further 2400 premises in Langwar-rin,” Mr Turnbull said.

“We are getting on with the job and work has been completed/partially

completed to connect The Heath Estate in Langwarrin and Peninsula Grange Retirement Village in Mornington and further areas will be announced later this year.

“The Government will continue to look at ways to make the NBN faster and more affordable than the previous government's plan and will work with the private sector to ensure effi cient de-livery and rollout.”

Mr Billson and Mr Turnbull later met with business owners, council repre-sentatives and service providers to dis-cuss progress on the NBN and measures to address poor mobile phone coverage.

“Minister Turnbull’s visit is an impor-tant follow-up to the pre-election visit where the focus was on accelerating high speed affordable broadband to un-derserviced areas, particularly for local businesses and commercial hubs,” Mr Billson said.

“Today we witnessed the fi rst fi bre splice in Frankston which will help pass 8100 residential premises in the elector-ate by the end of the year.”

Mr Billson said plans for future con-nections in the electorate would be an-nounced soon, blaming the previous Labor government for delays.

He said that under Labor, the Frankston and peninsula region was unlikely to have been connected to the NBN until 2022, while the Coali-tion had committed to connecting all homes in the area, and across Australia to the network of speed of 25 megabits per second by the end of 2016 and 50 megabits per second by 2019.

Mr Billson also called on residents to

help address mobile phone coverage is-sues by nominating known black spots to receive funding under the Coalition’s $100 million Mobile Black Spot pro-gram.

“The programme works to extend mobile phone coverage in outer met-ropolitan areas like ours,” Mr Billson said. “I have noticed and other people have reported several spots in Frankston South and along the Nepean Highway between Mt Eliza and Mornington where coverage is poor and phone calls often drop out or the signal fades.

“Not only is this frustrating for peo-ple wanting to stay in touch with fam-ily, friends and their workplace, access to reliable mobile coverage is a crucial pre-condition for the many businesses using smart phone apps as a key part of their business toolkit.

“Nominations close soon and I en-courage the community to nominate mobile black spots in the electorate so we can improve coverage in the area.”

The government expects to start a competitive selection process in the sec-ond half 2014, with a view to announc-ing the locations which have been select-ed for funding in the fi rst half of 2015.

The fi rst base stations funded under this programme are expected to begin roll out in the second half of 2015.

THIS is the meeting at which you, dear ratepayer, discover your fi scal fate for the next shire year. Since only one or two of you showed up on the night, here it is, in glorious precis.

Shire rated properties – that's all of you, unless you reside in a place of worship – will fork out what you paid last year “incremented by 5.9 per cent”, intoned fi nance manager Geoff Emberson's budget summary, under the headline “Proposed rates and charges”.

Oh, but wait! You must add to this a further $180, being the municipal charge levied on every property.

Note that the fl at-rate municipal charge, which has rocketed from $80 to $180 in a decade and is now effectively a subsidiary shire rate, was proposed to rise to $190 but was held down by vote of councillors.

Instead it was agreed to borrow $2 million to cover the shortfall but, strangely, it appears this borrowing may not be needed, included though it is in Mr Emberson's summary as required “to fund major capital works”.

You don't get a very major work for $2 million. However, substantial money can be (and would be) found via “effi ciencies and savings” for another

Foggy budget figures fail to please allFoggy budget figures fail to please all

By David HarrisonCouncil meeting at Besgrove St, Rose-bud, Monday 30 June. Main agenda item: the 2014-15 budget.Absent: Cr Graham Pittock.

project, the meeting was told.This latest percentage leap means

your rates have risen by 130 per cent in a decade, greater than petrol (71 per cent), gas (95), or electricity (129). And in that decade the Munici-pal Association of Victoria calculates that local government costs are up just 47 per cent. Why then the mas-sive municipal charge rise? For some ratepayers it can represent nearly half their total rate bill.

The shire seems lavish with its spending, a point made by several of the four councillors who voted against the budget. The 5.9 per cent rise is 18 per cent higher than the shire's own forecast of 5 per cent, mentioned in its 2013-17 strategic plan, continuing a pattern going back at least a decade.

Of course the precise sum you will pay will not be known until your rates notice hits the letterbox. Few will pay exactly 5.9 per cent (plus the munici-pal charge) more than they did last year because the rate – “$0.21037” will differ with property values.

That always means good news-bad news. This year the good news comes to residents of “Portsea, Sorrento, Blairgowrie, Rye, St Andrews Beach, Safety Beach and Mt Eliza”, all of which “have shown valuation reduc-tions”, meaning lower rate rises.

The bad news includes “the lo-calities of Mornington, Mt Martha, Dromana, McCrae and Rosebud, Rosebud West and Tootgarook”, where rate rises will be higher.

But, since the shire, inexplicably, no longer publishes its table of highest-lowest rates in each ward, the size of these movements will be known only

when the rates go out – or a council-lor or two requires staff to provide the fi gures for citizens of their wards. Ratepayers have a right – and a need – to view these fi gures, to be properly informed about their rates from year to year.

A few facts the budget does contain: it reports that the shire “comprises 98,008 rateable assessments of which 91.3% are residential, 2.3% rural, 3.3% commercial, 1.7% industrial, and 1.4% boatsheds. Of the 91.3% of assessments classed as residential, 2.4% of them are rural residential type properties attracting the general rate.

“In addition, there are a further 590 non-rateable properties now required to be valued for Fire Service Property Levy purposes.”

Owners of “farm land” pay only 35 per cent of the residential rate.

Approval of the budget vote was knife-edge – 5-4 – in the absence of Cr Graham Pittock and the vacancy in Red Hill ward. Councillors Bev Colomb, Lynn Bowden and Hugh Fraser spoke against it (Cr Tim Rodg-ers, nursing a sore throat, remained silent but also voted No), expressing general support for it but singling out concern over future borrowings in uncertain times, especially for the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre's rapidly escalating cost and uncertain-ty over what it would, if ever built, fi nally comprise.

Cr David Gibb berated budget op-ponents, describing their arguments as “facile” and their position as con-stituting “a very appalling process”. The shire was Victoria's sixth lowest

rating council and the rate rise was “affordable”, he said.

He was supported by councillors Anne Shaw, Andrew Dixon, David Garnock and Antonella Celi.

* Cr Pittock was advised not to at-tend the meeting because, by debating and voting on the budget, he would effectively be dealing with SPA and thus possibly exacerbate the confl ict matter.

The case against him has been fur-ther delayed until December because, the Local Government Inspectorate has argued, a witness, former shire governance manager Noel Buck, was unavailable until then. Mr Buck is said to be on a round-Australia motor-cycle adventure.

Not drowning, arguingNot drowning, arguingAlthough absent from the last week’s council meeting, Cr Graham Pittock brought up an item of urgent business via colleague Tim Rodgers. It in-volved “serious fl ooding” in Rosebud in the Murray-Anderson Rd-Point Nepean Rd area during the recent wild weather, despite drainage work by Melbourne Water.

“I'm speaking against the motion, Madam Mayor,” Cr David Gibb inter-jected quietly as leave was sought to bring on the item.

Councillors Pittock, Gibb and may-or Antonella Celi are the Seawinds ward councillors. Why was Cr Gibb opposing an item involving fl ooding, including of shops, in his ward?

Cleared to speak, Cr Rodgers proposed that an urgent report be brought to council dealing with why the drainage works had failed to stop

the fl ooding.“I'll seek an amendment, Madam

Mayor,” Cr Gibb was heard to say. He was barely audible in the gallery because of his habit of not turning on his microphone. Memo council-lors: the gallery like to hear what you are saying. That's why we come to meetings.

Given the call, Cr Gibb moved – mike now turned on – to widen the motion to encompass fl ooding across the shire. Cr Anne Shaw backed him. It would be “very interesting”, she said, to know the wider effect of the storms.

Cr Bev Colomb disagreed. So did Cr Hugh Fraser, who said the Gibb amendment would “effectively sabotage” Cr Rodgers's original mo-tion and would mean “months if not years” before a report could be done. The amendment was lost; the Rodgers motion got up.

Unfazed by this, Cr Gibb then moved a separate item of urgent busi-ness – his defeated amendment. Cr Fraser weighed in against it. What is the purpose of this motion, he asked. No specifi c evidence of fl ooding in any specifi c areas had been put to councillors. “It strikes me as a waste of money and a waste of time,” he said.

Cr Colomb agreed, adding that Cr Gibb's urgent business seemed to be “a sort of a backlash” to the Pittock-Rodgers motion.

Cr Gibb closed the debate, declar-ing he was aware of wider fl ooding. Then the vote. Cr Gibb had persuaded only the ever-loyal Anne Shaw and Andrew Dixon. Cr Pittock had won the day for his sodden ward.

A NEW access track being built at Point Leo will make it easier for wheelchairs to be taken in and out of the lifesaving club and onto the beach.

The number of people in wheelchairs using the club increases dramatically whenever an event is held by the Mornington Peninsula branch of the Disabled Surfers Association.

Work started on the new access track on Saturday, with members of the DSA and volunteers from local businesses which have donated materials and equipment.

The DSA is confi dent the project will come in under budget, allowing a grant from Mornington Peninsula Shire to also be used to improve other points of access for the disabled on the foreshore.

“The current access track should be completed by the end of July and at this stage we will see the completion of what we hope will be the fi rst stage of complete beach access,” DSAMP committee member Joe Hart said.

“The access track to Point Leo foreshore is part of the DSAMP in conjunction with the Point Leo Foreshore Committee and the Point Leo Surf Life-saving plans to develop the area into a disability precinct.”

Improvements will be made to the nearby toilet block, car park and provision made for all terrain wheelchairs.

“This track ending near the lifesaving club en-trance, even though not giving complete access to the beach, is just the fi rst stage,” Mr Hart said.

Companies donating towards the project include LBK Driveways and Design Construction and Asphalting; Maw Civil; Everist Timber; Barrell Concreting; Hillview Quarries; Holcim Australia; Fulton Hogan; GP Hire Rosebud, Point Leo Life-saving Club; and Pt Leo Foreshore Committee.

“More than 30 people attended the forum, including three commonwealth-funded aged care service providers who have partnered together as a consortium to provide a broad range of aged care and related services across the Morning-ton Peninsula region,” Mr Billson said.

“The consortium is the fi rst of its kind in the electorate which combines services from Village Glen, Andrew Kerr Frail and Aged Care Centre and Village Baxter.

“It’s great to see the local aged care providers driving in-novation to ensure clients and the community receive a high level of care,” Mr Billson said.

Senator Fifi eld described the forum as “very productive”, acknowledging the breadth of changes would take some time for the industry to absorb.

“The changes to aged care commencing on 1 July will help make our aged care system more effi cient and fl exible, better coordinated and consistent, and easier to navigate,” Senator Fifi eld said.

He said the changes aimed to help build a better aged care system that offered “choice and fl exibility for consumers, and put control back into their hands, with more support at home to enable people to stay in their own homes and com-munities for as long as possible”.

The CEO of Mornington’s Andrew Kerr Frail and Age Care centre, Eileen Prudden said that while the changes pre-sented challenges to both residents and services providers, they were necessary and inevitable.

“With our aging population and shrinking workforce, there was really no choice other than to make these sorts of changes,” she said.

“Change is never easy, especially for elderly people, but increasing costs and less tax payers to foot the bill means people have to pay more for aged care.”

She said the forum had been “very helpful” in answering questions peninsula aged care service providers had and thanked Senator Fifi eld and Mr Billson for providing an op-portunity the opportunity.

“There’s certainly a lot to get our heads around, but Sena-tor Fifi eld was very open and honest with us.

“We’re very appreciative of his time, and for Mr Billson organising such an opportunity.”

AN Australian Football Junior Development Cen-tre will be based at BlueScope Steel, Hastings.

The Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League and BlueScope Steel announced the partnership last week.

It comes after an intensive search for a base where players and coaches from all MPJFL clubs could refi ne and develop their skills.

The Hastings facility will suit players of all ages. It has a 170m long by 125m wide fully irrigated footy oval, change rooms, pavilion, warm-up areas and learning centre.

MPJFL president Andrew Souter said the cen-tre would be the fi rst of its kind in the region that can be used year-round. He thanked Hastings MP Neale Burgess for his assistance.

“BlueScope Steel sees this partnership with the MPJFL as an integral part of our community program which will have a long-term benefi t for children in our region,” Bluescope Steel’s Hast-ings manager Bob Pullein said.

The MPJFL will move its administration offi c-es to the Hastings Community Hub this month. The new $3.4 million facility will include

meeting rooms, exercise area, administrative support, staff training and a range of community programs.

In other junior football news, the Bendigo Bank MPJFL fi nals series will be held for the fi rst time at Red Hill with the support of the Balnarring Junior Football Club and the Red Hill Junior and Senior football clubs.

With big crowds expected, the four week fi nals series will provide a signifi cant spinoff for Red Hill businesses and the local community, organisers say.

Night bus serviceNight bus serviceBUS commuters on the peninsula will benefi t from an improved late night bus time table. It will connect Mt Eliza buses with Frankston trains every 20 minutes between 8 and 10.20pm.

The changes start 27 July.“We have been able to improve the timetable

to connect Mt Eliza’s three bus routes with more night-time trains, halving the wait time between connected services and providing a more frequent service to Mt Eliza after 8pm,” Mornington MP David Morris said.

He said more than 180 train services each week have been added to the Frankston line, with transport minister Terry Mulder saying the government had “invested heavily to ensure train punctuality is lifted from just 62.6 per cent in May 2010 to 90.7 per cent in May 2014.

“The $115 million Bayside Rail Project will transform passenger journeys on the Frankston line by introducing new X’Trapolis trains and improving stations to make them safer and more comfortable.”

A $3 MILLION upgrade to the Oncology Day Treatment Centre at Frankston Hospital will provide better support for those with cancer and their families.

Peninsula Health cancer services provides 8000 chemotherapy treatments per year through the centre and receives a further 4000 visits to its two outpatient clinics at the Frankston and Rosebud hospitals.

Federal member for Dunkley, Bruce Billson, last week opened stage one of the upgrade ac-companied by Peninsula Health chair, Nancy Hogan, and Frankston Hospital chief operating offi cer, Brendon Gardner.

“The Federal Government provided $650,000 through the community development grants program to fund this vital upgrade,” Mr Billson said.

"The centre includes fi ve more treatment chairs, bringing the total number to 15, as well as larger treatment areas and a new patient resource room.”

More than 8000 patients per year receive treat-ment in the electorate and completion of this project means more people won’t have to travel and can be cared for locally by highly skilled staff, Mr Billson said.

COMMENT

By David Harrison

NEVER mind whether the shire or councillors or the Rosebud Chamber of Commerce say “we” can afford it. Ulti-mately “we” – the ratepayers – will foot the bill. A bill that is huge and growing alarmingly.

The question arose briefl y at the budget council meeting on 30 June. A sum of $1.6 million was allocated to the project. A sum of $38-odd million was mentioned as the current pool cost.

Wrong, said Cr David Gibb, the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre's most ardent promoter. Only some $34 million has been approved by council-lors at this stage.

True, perhaps. But councillors recently approved water slides and other add-ons for the pool. That means approving the cost of them, a further $6 million or so, at some stage. And they were in the list of features architects could include in their plans for the project design contest.

Cr Gibb leads the pro-SPA councillor group, which also insists the complex must be built on the Rosebud foreshore. Will that add to the cost? Almost cer-tainly. By how much? Who knows. The pro-foreshore camp argue the foreshore site will be cheaper – the land comes free.

In its project cost the winning tenderer will build in a cost contingency maybe as high as 25 per cent to cover any unex-pected costs of building the complex's foundation in what is essentially sand. The tenderer cannot risk taking a loss on the project.

The pool complex was fi rst mooted almost a decade ago. Price then: about $16 million. Much of this would come

from government sources. By 2012 the price was $28.5 million. Then it rose to some $34 million as it grew in size. Now the cost hovers around $40 million.

This writer has supported the pool for Rosebud all along. But not on the fore-shore. And, as the cost spiralled from $28 million, not at any price, either. At $40 million it is becoming unaffordable.

To quote many a politician over many a year: where is the money coming from?

The shire now has a debt of about $38 million. It is planning borrowings of some $12 million for the SPA in future budgets. That leaves a cost gap of $26 million. Add that to the current debt and you have at least $64 million to be paid back, mainly via rates.

Some councillors used to be confi dent that a generous public, and generous wealthy individuals, would contribute to the SPA cost. But that was back in the days before it suddenly headed for $40 million. Government money also dried up as the project bogged down – partly by the insistence that it be built on the foreshore.

And the SPA is still a plan with fuzzy edges. To quote Cr Hugh Fraser, speak-ing about the SPA uncertainties on cost and fi nal design before voting against the 2014-15 budget on 30 June:

“One moment there's a kitchen which is to have a combined function for both [the SPA] cafe and for the [Rosebud Me-morial Hall] complex. The next moment there's going to be separate kitchens.

“One moment there's a gymnasium of a certain size, the next moment there's going to be a gymnasium of an increased size. One moment Cr Gibb is announcing a rooftop restaurant, and

now we have a cafe.” What next? Who has a top hat secreted

in their bottom drawer from which these rabbits are being pulled?

Those promoting the pool, assisted by shire executives, have adamantly and consistently refused to ask all shire residents their view of the pool – the shire's biggest-yet undertaking. Remem-ber Climate Change Conversations and Plan Peninsula? But the public has been denied their say in a shire-run forum on this enormous plan.

Why? Cr Gibb says the SPA has “overwhelming” community support. The shire said it in a submission to Environment Minister Ryan Smith, a document that conveniently omitted all contrary fact and opinion and based its case on fl uffy superlatives. Minister Smith seems not to have been fooled by this document.

We – the “we” who will pay for this huge, fi nancially vulnerable edifi ce – are entitled to proper process, the baring of all the relevant facts, a heavy dose of the shire's much-vaunted but rarely im-plemented openness and transparency, before the SPA goes any further.

Ironically, it was a set of recently re-leased confi dential documents that told us some truths previously unavailable to “we”, the public bill-payers.

Just one fact, from a pool expert group: the response to a phone survey of prospective pool users was the second lowest the group had ever encountered in surveys done Australia-wide over 15 years. This implied low local patronage: not a good start to a facility already cal-culated to need a hefty ratepayer subsidy from day one.

SPA: how much can we splash?SPA: how much can we splash? Memory lapseMemory lapseWHILE shopping this morning and using my bank card, I com-mented to the shopkeeper how easy it all is now.

She told me many of her cus-tomers are very fearful of the day when they can only access their cards by a PIN number. They are in the category of “independ-ent living in villages”, but their memory is sometimes defec-tive in remembering groups of numbers.

They are concerned they will be unable to remember their PIN numbers and therefore be unable to enjoy their shopping.

While they can access a bus and do their shopping and banking they want to have the freedom most of us enjoy: that of not carrying large sums of cash around and using their bank cards but fear not being able to remember their PIN and thus be-ing embarrassed.

I wonder if the bankers have given any thought to this kind of problem and how it could be resolved for the group of people in this category.

I have written to my bank in the hope they may be able to resolve one of the problems that cause worry to the elderly.

Ageing and illness is not escaped by many of us and the problem will be waiting in the future.

B M Harradine, Mornington

No ‘victory’No ‘victory’DAVID Morris issued a news re-lease announcing that the Liberal party has removed our long held right to subdivide our large, fully

serviced properties in Mt Eliza. He fi nishes with the comment: “this is indeed a victory".

It might be a victory for Mr Morris and the small group of his politically infl uential supporters.

It is not a victory for the aging residents of Mt Eliza who have just had their retirement plans ruined.

It is not a victory for the silent majority who have just had a valuable asset of $400,000 - $500,000 taken from them.

It is not a victory for fair and open state and local government due process.

It is not a victory for the local Briars ward councillors who are actually close to the issues and who voted against the planning amendment.

It is not a victory for the 50,000 residents that the government projects will require housing on the peninsula. Where will they go? Certainly not in Mr Morris's backyard.

It is not a victory for the people of Frankston and Hastings where the pressure for increased devel-opment will inevitably increase.

Is this the Liberals getting on with governing Victoria? I would argue that it is a fi nal act of a dysfunctional government that is honouring promises to its mates.

FEATURE PROPERTY<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

AT the end of a meandering driveway, fl anked by native trees and shrubs, this stunning residence enjoys absolute privacy and a sense of serenity that will make you feel a world away. This visually intriguing home spreads out over 483 square metres (52 square) with a four-car garage centered between two distinct living zones. A virtually self-contained area in the south wing boasts a rumpus room with kitchen facilities and a full offi ce also with a kitchen, bar and a powder room. A full length verandah connects to the remainder of the home as you enter into the dazzling family room. The spectacular kitchen has a massive island bench with stone benchtops and a full complement of stainless-steel appliances include a dishwasher, wall and convection ovens, plus a gas cooktop. The kitchen overlooks a casual meals area, perfectly orientated to take in a view of the pool area from the charming bay window, and a generous living space. The east wing begins with a calming rock garden and water feature acting as the backdrop to a formal dining area, and take a moment to imagine the memorable cocktail parties that could take place in the formal lounge with a magnifi cent open-fi re place creating the ultimate ambience. Another powder room adjoins a smaller, separate study with the master bedroom - complete with twin walk-in robes and ensuite with spa bath - providing the fi nal stop to this part of the home. The west wing houses four more bedrooms and a fourth bathroom, and given the already impressive family room and lounge that would serve adults very nicely, this section has the perfect set-up for children and teenagers with a fi rst class home theatre room. Already overwhelmed with features, there is still a component to the property that cannot be faulted. The beautiful pool area merges with the tree-line in an almost “horizon” effect and includes a spa bath just a few steps from a lovely alfresco lounge. A full-size, mod-grass tennis court is set further down the property, and branching off from the driveway is a double carport and a workshed for storing the work vehicles necessary to maintain the sprawling 1.6 hectare block.

HE came. He saw many, but not Shaw. Premier Denis Napthine arrived in Frankston last week at short notice and strolled the streets to greet and meet residents in an effort to woo vot-ers in the marginal seat.

Dr Napthine’s visit could be the fi rst of many in the lead up to November’s state election with the seat poised on a knife edge and the Liberal and Labor parties keen to oust incumbent Geoff Shaw.

Independent MP Mr Shaw holds the seat by an estimated 0.4 per cent af-ter electorate boundary redistributions late last year.

The Premier and Liberal candidate for Frankston Sean Armistead were trailed by a Melbourne media scrum but local press were not notifi ed of Dr Napthine’s surprise visit.

Mr Shaw was nowhere to be seen while the premier patrolled the Frankston MP’s home patch.

A chance meeting between the pair could have been interesting. Chan-nel 9’s A Current Affair tabloid TV show last week featured an interview with Mr Shaw in which he called Dr Naphine “gutless”.

Mr Shaw said he was not guilty of the offence that led to him being sus-pended from parliament for 11 sitting days – the misuse of a parliamentary vehicle – and hinted any forced apol-ogy he would be forced to make as a condition of his return could be “insin-cere”.

While in town, the Premier met

Neil [email protected]

Premier slips in without notice

Frankston mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, to discuss high-profi le Frankston issues.

Cr Taylor said the meeting had been productive.

“We have his assurances that we will have access to the relevant ministers in relation to the concerns we have about the city centre and particularly the train station precinct,” Cr Taylor said.

Some Frankston councillors have criticised the state government’s latest $13.8 million Frankston Station Pre-cinct Improvement Plan draft proposal as a “broken promise” since it does not include an upgraded bus interchange

and larger car park.Dr Napthine praised Frankston as “a

growing and diverse” city. He praised Mr Armistead as “a great local candi-date”.

Mr Armistead said voters could trust him, having voted in Liberal candidate Mr Shaw at the previous 2010 state election only to subsequently see him leave the party.

“As a local, people know me and they know what I stand for,” he said.

The temporary absence of a Labor candidate for Frankston after Helen Constas’ sudden withdrawal from the

race last month was a positive for the Liberals, according to Mr Armistead.

“It’s the old saying – you’ve got to make hay while the sun shines,” he said. “We’re out there and we’re talk-ing to everybody.”

Frankston councillor James Dooley has put his hand up for preselection as Labor’s candidate but the party has not yet named the replacement candidate for Ms Constas.

The Premier refused to confi rm whether the Liberals would agree a preference votes deal with the likes of the Rise Up Australia Party and the

Palmer United Party to swing the mar-ginal seat of Frankston in their favour.

“The preference arrangements will ultimately be decided by our adminis-trative wing and they’ll certainly work with other candidates and other parties to seek preference fl ows to Sean and the Liberal Party,” Dr Napthine said.

He said the Liberals would not do deals with “extremist” political parties but declined to specifi cally name them.

The premier noted the Coalition had decided to preference the Greens last at the previous state election in a deci-sion that he said was “vindicated”.

SOMEONE wise once said that choirs are the men's sheds of singing, where men can get together in friendship and put their hearts and souls into music.

The adage rings true for Frankston’s own Australian Welsh Male choir, which attracts men of all ages from many walks of life.

Pictured above are Bernie Rumble, Glyn Thomas and Tony Dickinson, the three founding members of the 40-year-old choir, with Craig Chambers and Kristian Kupsch, who, at 42, are its youngest members.

The "Three Amigos" as they are affectionately known, are each holding a red glass dragon, made in Gippsland, and sourced from an expatri-ate Welshman who runs a boutique glassworks. The plinths were made by members of the choir.

Glyn, at 92, is an active member of the choir and Craig and Kristian, both with disabilities, are also active and have appeared with the choir at the Sydney Opera House and the Royal Albert Hall in London.

Next May the choir will once again sing in the 1000 Welsh Male concert at London’s Royal Al-bert Hall, making it the only international choir to be invited to this prestigious event.

Touring success is not unusual for the choir

which was formed by a group of expatriate Welshmen at the Pines Soccer Club in 1973 to sing Christmas carols. It has progressed since then into a prestigious choir singing concerts here and around the world.

In 1983 the choir was invited to join the As-sociation of Welsh Choirs making it, at the time, the only choir outside Wales to be accorded that honour. The following year it toured the UK and sang at the Royal Albert Hall with the 1000 Voice Festival of Choirs. The choristers repeated this tour in 1988, 2000, 2004 and 2012.

Tours have been made to Tasmania and New Zealand to raise money for charities. Fund raising has been a major aim of this choir and thousands have been raised for charities as well as entertaining hundreds of concert goers.

The choir practises at the Baxter Village Chapel in Robinsons Rd on Monday nights, and would welcome any man who wants to sing and enjoy the company and the enjoyment of singing and helping others on the way.

The choir is not for profi t and self-funded. Corporate sponsorship is welcomed to ease the fi nancial burden on individual choristers. If you can help email the secretary on [email protected]

Speech Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease patientsJeanette’s journey with LSVT LOUD

Jeanette is an active and dynamic 67 year old lady who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s 29 years ago when she was 38 years old. She successfully ran her own Travel Agency business for 28 years and is still active in the community. More recently Jeanette’s family and

when she spoke, even though she felt she was speaking loudly enough.

Decreased volume and voice issues affects 70-90% of people with Parkinson’s. Upon liaising with St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital (SJGFRH) Speech Pathologists, Jeanette undertook the LSVT -LOUD (Lee Silverman Voice Therapy) Program to help improve her voice and communication. This program is considered the gold standard in voice therapy for individuals with Parkinson’s and can only be offered

and Georgia Forsberg who provide

LSVT as an outpatient program.

Jeanette describes the program as “excellent and it made a huge difference to my ability to communicate”. Family and friends have all commented on the positive change, with her husband being especially happy. Jeanette reports that prior to doing LSVT her husband was becoming very frustrated and spent most of his time asking her to repeat herself. Now they communicate with ease.

Jeanette reports that the best thing about the LSVT program was that “the Therapists were extremely friendly, helpful and understanding of the problem and took the time to build up

communicate on a long term basis”.

recommend the program to other individuals with PD commenting that “they would have nothing to lose and

communicate with others on a day to day basis – and most important of all – they would learn to THINK LOUD!”

Jeanette feels that PD is a disease which is greatly affected by attitude and encourages patients not to consider themselves as victims, but rather to seek ways and means of helping themselves and maintaining a positive attitude towards life is extremely important. She says “the LSVT program is excellent and is only one example of the many

facilities and programs available to patients with Parkinson’s Disease at St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital. They encourage patients to learn to help themselves”.

Jeanette’s message to others is “Parkinson’s is only a word, not a

loud voice.

Compiled by Melissa McCulloughOWING to the inclement weather, the meeting to establish a gun club at Somerville, to have been held on Tues-day evening last, was postponed. It will now be held on Monday evening next at the Hotel Somerville.

***AT the meeting of the Mornington shire council held on Thursday, tenders for construction of 3 1/2 miles of the Point Nepean road were considered, and that of Messrs Allnutt and Baker, £4255 2s, was accepted. The council’s day man, Mr Cexhell, was appointed clerk of works.

***THERE has been paid into the taxation offi ce as duty in respect of the estate of John Cleeland, the sum of £91,034. This represents duty on £89,536 realty and £1498 personally left by deceased.

***AT the last meeting of the Frankston and Hastings shire council, Cr Keast moved, according to notice, that a pound be established at Somerville. Cr Macray seconded the motion proforma, but it was ultimately decided that Crs Keast and Murray be a committee to go into the matter, and report at next meeting.

***IT is announced by cable that Miss Dorothea Wollaston, third daughter of Sir Harry Wollason, formerly Comp-troller-General of Customs in Austral-ia, was married this week to M. Georg-es Ferrand, a Frenchman, engaged in commercial matters. The ceremony took place in the Church of Our Lady

of Victoria, at Kensington. Captain R. M. Collins and other Australians were among the guests.

***THE quarterly meeting of the Frankston Methodist Circuit was held at Lang-warrin on the 1st inst. the minister (the Rev R. Jackson) presiding. A slight increase of membership was reported, and the fi nances were well maintained, a small credit balance showing. Regret was expressed at the enforced absence of the senior circuit steward, Mr A. E. Gault, through illness, and a resolution passed expressive of regret at his seri-ous illness and thanks for past lengthy and untiring services.

***THE following resolution was also passed, and a copy ordered to be sent to the State Premier, “That this quarterly meetings responsibility is to express its opinion that the proposal to introduce into the State School curriculum the art of boxing amongst boys is a step in the wrong direction, and will have the ef-fect of lowering the moral tone of the boys in particular and the community in general; and further, that the school curriculum is suffi ciently full as at pre-sent constituted therefore we express the hope that the proposal be not further considered, nor any attempt made to carry it into effect.” A deal of business of a routine character was transacted, after which a splendid tea was partaken of, provided by the ladies of Langwar-rin church, for which hearty thanks was given. The remainder of the evening was spent in a meeting of a devotional character, and was much enjoyed by those present.

***

DESPITE the somewhat inclement weather, the annual ball in connection with the lodge, held on Wednesday evening, was an unqualifi ed success. There was a splendid attendance, the dancing spade being taxed to the ut-most, while a good number of specta-tors monopolised the stage. Gabriel’s band provided splendid music, and Mr Lee Devlin, as M.C., kept things going

with a swing till the wee sma’ hours. During an interval a tasty supper was served, and in this direction also there was nothing left to be desired. Mr Moore, who had charge of this depart-ment, is to be complimented for the excellent manner in which the catering was done. The ball committee

(Secretary H. Simcock, P.G., A. Sage, and V.G., F. Benson) worked hard to ensure the success of the lodge’s an-nual function, and the result of their ef-forts was very apparent on Wednesday evening. All the arrangements for the successful carrying out of the ball were complete in every detail, there being nothing wanting that could add to the enjoyableness of the evening.

Mr John Dyke rendered valuable assistance to the committee. A special word of praise is due to Mrs G. Shep-herd, for the beautiful way in which she carried out the decorations of the hall. The scheme was carried out with paper carnations, the colors of the offi cers of the lodge predominating, and the effect was charming. The best thanks of the lodge are due this lady for her work in this direction.

***TO THE EDITOR

Sir, will you kindly grant me space once more in your valuable paper to reply to the letter written by “One who likes Justice.” It is with some regret I write again, for fear I should create the idea that I look upon the Hastings football team as a rough lot as a whole. I have known some of them for many years, and I am pleased to meet and shake hands with them either on their ground or ours.

It was the wholesale charge that “One who likes Justice” made against the fairness of the Somerville team in his fi rst letter that 1 took exception to. If he has watched them play he must know that there are as fair footballers in the Somerville team as ever kicked a ball, and when he said the team played the man and not the ball and could not take

a beating-well, it was that “that rose the dander of McCarty.” He says the Somerville player who got hit did not get as much as he deserved. I certainly don’t know what he did, so I do not know what he deserves. I have heard several tales of what he did, but he says he did nothing unfair. The umpire re-ported him, I believe, for rough play. I only quoted the incident in my letter to show-

1st: That the umpire was no’ the fair-nst ever on the Peninsula; and

2nd: That some of the Hastings play-ers were not so gentle and downhearted as “One who like Justice” would like the general public to believe. He also says “ if the delegates look to the safety of other players they will disqualify the Somerville player for life. I think this is a point for us to discuss, as I think the gentlemen who give their time as delegates are quite capable of carry-ing on the business of the association without any advice from us. He says I must look through the sixteenth part of an eye, and shut the other one.

Well, that is a very small portion and I think even that is on a par with his common sense, far be it for me or any-one else to say through these columns when and where he was heard ealling out to “rough them up,” and then has not got sense enough to let us know who he is. I do not intend to write again on this subject, as I have had my say and am content to let the matter drop.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

By Stuart McCulloughIT’S just not true. No matter how much you claim that a rose by any other name is just as sweet, if they were called ‘Stinkweed’, nobody would buy them on Valentine’s Day. If Shakespeare had named his key teenage protagonists ‘Darren’ and ‘Pauline’ instead of the more ear pleasing ‘Romeo’ and ‘Juliet’, one of his greatest plays would have long been forgotten. Ditto ‘Rambo’ for ‘Roger’. It wouldn’t matter a jot that Sly Stallone had biceps like Christmas hams, no one’s going to believe that a guy called ‘Roger’ could be a one-man killing machine. It’s simply not cred-ible.

Right or wrong, names matter.For many people, The Clash hold a

dear place in their musical heart. But for all their success, by 1983 they were falling apart. This resulted in the sack-ing in Mick Jones who, aside from playing guitar, wrote a lot of the songs.

When it comes to bands, sacking your chief songwriter is rarely a recipe for enduring success.

Mick’s role was then replaced by, not one, but two guitarists. Nick Shep-pard was recruited from a band called The Cortinas. Nick, without doubt, is a strong rock and roll kind of name even if the name of his former band was weighed down by its links to affordable sedans.

Greg White, of no-fi xed previous band, was the second choice. But there was a problem. Bass player Paul Si-monon point blank refused to be in a band with someone called ‘Greg’.

It’s fair to say that the recruiting methods of bands would not be consid-

ered best practice. There are few com-panies that I know of who enforce a ‘no Greg’ policy. Indeed, it’s hard to imag-ine anyone missing out on a job simply because of his or her name.

That said, I’d probably have second thoughts about hiring someone called ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth Vader’. Although if you go to the share fridge and fi nd a yoghurt labelled, ‘Property of Darth Vader’, chances are you’d think twice before swiping it.

The Clash would probably have wel-comed Darth Vader with open arms. Not that he was ever a contender.

The Artist Formerly Known as ‘Greg’ obligingly changed his name to ‘Vince’. Whether other names like ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth’ were even consid-ered has never been revealed. It seems

a strange kind of compromise to force on anyone. But whilst calling yourself ‘Vince’ might get a gig in the world’s biggest punk band, it doesn’t help you write a decent song.

Without Mick Jones, The Clash suf-fered terribly. Releasing an album enti-tled Cut the Crap – which, had the band heeded their own advice, would have seen them release two sides of com-plete silence – it was perhaps inevitable that ‘The Clash’ should break up.

Greg/Vince then left the music indus-try to work as a mini-cab driver. Life is full of little ironies. He played guitar with a guy who was in a band called The Cortinas and ended up driving one. Luckily, both ‘Greg’ and ‘Vince’ are acceptable names within the mini-cab industry.

Some names get all the glory. For ex-ample, certain handles feature in songs all the time while others never even get a look in. ‘Cathy’ is a popular choice – Cathy’s Clown by The Everly Brothers and You Am I, not to mention Kathy’s Song by Simon and Garfunkel. Having a ‘Jane’ song in your repertoire seems almost mandatory - there’s Song For Jainie by Tim Buckley, Sweet Jane by the Velvet Underground and Janie’s Got a Gun by Aerosmith. The Clash who, while objecting vociferously to ‘Greg’, had no problem at all with ‘Janie Jones’. Other repeat offend-ers include Valerie (The Monkees and Amy Winehouse/Mark Ronson) and, in a variety of forms, Sue (Wake Up Little Susie by the Everly Brothers and Runa-round Sue by Dion and the Belmonts).

The wind cries ‘Mary’ and it’s also a boat called the ‘Proud Mary’. Some names get all the attention.

Even slightly unusual names can of-ten be lauded in song. Jolene by Dolly Parton, Layla by Eric Clapton and Me and You and a Dog Named Boo by Lobo to name but a few. For crying out loud, even ‘Bo Diddley’ gets multiple mentions (most notably in the song Bo Diddley written by Bo Diddley and performed by – you guessed it – Bo Diddley). And while there may only be one song dedicated to the name ‘Eloise’ it’s an absolute cracker. Performed by Barry Ryan – a name that would have seem him barred from The Clash – the fi lm clip features Ryan on horseback riding along a windswept beach. It’s a pity for everyone that more video clips don’t feature singers on horseback.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no songs featuring the name ‘Stuart’ in the title. This is for the best. That’s despite the fact that my name neatly rhymes with ‘do it’, ‘threw it’ and, per-haps most handily of all, ‘knew it’.

Under no circumstances would I have been allowed to join The Clash. As for the name ‘Greg’, it has fi nally been rehabilitated. In the 1990s, Melbourne band TISM put out a song called Greg! The Stop Sign based on a grisly TAC commercial that caused me to give up driving entirely until 1997. The Clash could not fail to be moved. My only hope is that it gave the Artist Formerly known as Greg some comfort. He de-serves as much.

Weekend Events 12 & 13 July

Hands up if you associated winter with sick kids. Hands up again if your kids always get sick over these school holidays! Here are some hints & tips from KidzAid Paediatric First Aid Training to help you navigate through the tissues, cough medicine, band-aids & tears.

Head InjuryBound to be bumps, bangs and knocks along the way. Remember if your baby/child has ANY loss of consciousness, they MUST be seen by a medical professional. If the child has a MILD head injury it is ok to let them sleep, remembering, ANY changes or concerns with your child, you will be straight off to the nearest medical centre or emergency depart-ment. Don’t be afraid to call 000 and seek their expert advice.

GastroenteritisUnfortunately if your child is hit with this highly contagious bug, they are out of bounds from socialising until 48-hours free from vomiting or diar-rhoea. With gastroenteritis, it is really important that you are on the look out for dehydration. Ensure your child has plenty of fl uids and instead of reaching for the cordials and fl at lem-onade, reach for an oral rehydration solution. Hydralyte which is scien-tifi cally formulated and safe for bubs under 12-months, contains the correct balance of electrolytes and glucose required for rapid rehydration.

Bronchiolitis, Croup and PneumoniaWhat you need to look out for and when to seek urgent medical as-sistance: • Increased breathing rate, indicat-

ing your child is not getting enough oxygen.• Colour changes, your child may appear to have a bluish tinge to their lips, mouth and fi ngernails, again indicative of lack of oxygen. The skin can also appear gray or pale.• Noisy breathing – Grunting may be heard when your child exhales. It’s the body’s attempt to try and keep air in the lungs.• Nasal-fl aring - Nostrils fl aring in paediatrics is indicating the child is working very hard at breathing. • Retractions / recession - ribs ‘suck-ing in’ when they are breathing is another way of trying to bring more air into their lungs.• Wheezing (whistling, musical sounds) - is indicating that your

child’s air passages are becoming nar-rower and smaller.• Tripod position – child will adopt this position to try and draw in as much air as possible to their lungs. • Observing your child’s behaviour and the level of consciousness is important.

FracturesHard to escape when it comes to children… Snow trips, skate parks, play centres and endless curiosity and an abundance of no fear! When in doubt, treat as a fracture. Immobilise and support the injured limb straight away. Elevate and get that little limb up, think outside the box and use whatever you can. Time to pull out the cold pack as this will

assist with pain and swelling. Reach for your medicine cabinet and give pain relief. Hold off from giving your child any food or fl uids at this stage, incase they require surgery. Off to the doctor, a X-ray is required.

Hand, foot and mouth diseaseThis is a viral infection predominately seen in children (under 10 years) and young adults. The viral infection is very common, easily spread but rarely causes complications. Signs and symptoms generally develop three to seven days after exposure to an infected person, the duration of the virus is usually seven to ten days.• Fever.• Tiredness.• Poor appetite.

• Complain of a sore throat.• Tiny blisters inside the mouth, including blisters around the tongue, palms, fi ngers, soles of the feet and the genital region. The small blisters are generally not itchy like the chick-enpox blisters.

Slapped CheekSlapped cheek is a fairly mild viral illness also called parvovirus B19. Its name comes about because of its most obvious symptom, a red rash that makes the child’s cheeks look like they have been slapped. Slapped cheek is spread through personal contact, including coughing and sneezing. Key points to remember include:• Initial symptoms such as the head-ache, fever, tummy upsets is the time when the parvovirus B19 can spread to others, making it hard to identify as these symptoms are common for a range of childhood illnesses.• Allowing the child to rest and fi ght the infection is the key management for Slapped Cheek.• As soon as the rash is visible on the child’s face, they are no longer infec-tious to others, so can therefore attend school / day care.

For more information on these or many other children’s health topics, visit www.kidzaid.com.au. If your child is unwell and you are unsure always seek the direct advice of your OWN medical practitioner or dial 000 and seek medical assistance im-mediately. While prepared by experi-enced and qualifi ed health profession-als, the above should be considered as opinion and general advice only.

PENINSULA LEAGUEBy Toe Punt PINES was brought back to earth with a thud after Frankston YCW strangled them for three of the four quarters to record a 57-point victory 2.9 (21) to 11.12 (78).

It was the only Peninsula League game played on Saturday.

Mornington and Mt Eliza and Chelsea and Edithvale played on Sunday.

The remaining two games will be played next Saturday to conclude yet another split round.

We are all very well aware that the strength of the Stonecats is the defensive unit, led by Byron and Anthony Barry.

On Saturday at Eric Bell Reserve, the visitors restricted the home side to fi ve behinds in the fi rst half.

Pines kicked their only two goals in the third quarter, courtesy of Chris Guganovic and Guy Hendry.

Frankston YCW excitement machine Kyle Hutchison kicked more goals himself than the opposition. He fi nished with three majors.

Anthony Barry found himself off the leash and forward of centre on a number of occasions, fi nishing with two goals while Ben Tellis also kicked multiple goals.

Ash Eames played his best game for the season and seems to be well

over his hamstring tear while Ryley Hodson and Casey Radford were outstanding.

Joel Brunn has been superb for the Pythons this season and was again on Saturday, while Beau Hendry and Shaun White worked really hard.

It was the fi rst game the Pythons have lost since coach Steve Ryan announced he was resigning from the position.

The Pythons are already actively looking for replacements and some interesting conversations have already taken place.

It is believed that two of Pines’ opponents on Saturday are on their priority list – the Barry cousins, Byron and Anthony.

The Barrys were close to leaving last season, offered big deals to go elsewhere and coach.

Frankston YCW coach Scott Mathers is doing a wonderful job with the team and he has them playing inspired football.

Whilst it is believed there were teething problems initially, the Stonecats are now purring.

Mathers said it was always going to take time for the list to get used to new ways of doing things.

“We haven’t changed things too much. It’s been a winning formula but we have just tinkered,” Mathers said.

“We’ve given some players some

new roles and responsibilities and they seem to be enjoying the change.”

The general consensus is that the change of coach has brought some new life into the club.

For the Stonecats, it’s certainly making a difference.

For the opposition, it’s something they wouldn’t want to be hearing.

Inaccuracy in front of goal cost Edithvale-Aspendale a big win against neighbour Chelsea.

The Eagles were always going to win the clash, however, it should have made a lot more from its 34 scoring shots to 32.

Edithvale’s Matt Clark was clearly the best player on the ground, really making a statement after 18 months away from the game.

The Gulls, who were never in the contest, were best served by Fia Tootoo. The Gulls would have lost by more than 72 points if he wasn’t on the park.

The fi nal score was 14.20 (104) to 5.2 (32).

In the other Sunday game, Mornington turned the tables on Mt Eliza, smashing the home side 9.7 (61) to 2.13 (25).

The Doggies were beaten by the Redlegs in the corresponding game in round one, however, were well in control on Sunday at Emil Masden Reserve.

Stonecats put squeeze on Pythons Stonecats put squeeze on Pythons

Melee a distasteful sceneMelee a distasteful sceneOFFICIALS from Red Hill and Hastings Football Clubs need to have a good look at themselves after an on-fi eld incident at half time on Saturday.

A couple of small fi ghts broke out just before the half time siren, before every player got involved once the siren had gone.

There were a couple of disturbing things to be seen during these seven minutes of high testosterone and emotion.

The fi rst was that the trainers should not have gone anywhere near the melee. However, there were some white shirts sticking their noses into a place where they shouldn’t have been.

Then, as the players had broken away and were happy to head back to the change rooms, leading offi cials from each club started to hurl abuse at one another as they walked from the

fi eld, right in front of spectators.Thankfully, the situation didn’t escalate and

they all shared a sausage roll and cold beverage during the half time break.

However, club people in positions of power should lead by example and leave what happens on the fi eld, on the fi eld.

Murray a few weeks awaMurray a few weeks awayyCRIB POINT will be without Aaron Murray for a few weeks yet.

Murray has only been training for the past week with the Pies and won’t be match fi t for at least another three weeks you would expect.

Murray is coming off a knee reconstruction he suffered two seasons ago. It was his second knee reconstruction.

Murray crossed from his home club Somerville in controversial circumstances two weeks ago, joining former Eagle teammate and favourite son, Glenn Boyd.

‘Azza’ has been keeping himself fi t and strong, competing in triathlons.

He will be a wonderful acquisition for the Pies, who lost key forward Toron Petrie a fortnight ago.

Don’t argue: Sorrento got off to a fl yer and smashed Somerville in their weekend Nepean League game. Pictures: Andrew Hurst

NEPEAN LEAGUEBy Toe Punt A BLISTERING nine goal third quarter saw Red Hill continue on its merry way in Nepean League on Saturday against Hastings.

The Hillmen trailed by 13 points at the major change after the home side dominated the quarter, booting six goals to fi ve behinds.

Taylor Stratton was giving his side plenty of drive from the half back line, Justin Berry and Josh Mulheron were working well through the middle and around the ground and Kane Stratton was given a little bit of licence in the back half.

Steven Robb was also looking lively for the Blues and Dale Alanis and Steve Charalambous were getting their hands on the footy.

It was a great, free fl owing contest in the fi rst half and it appeared the Blues had the upper hand.

There was also plenty of feeling in the game also. A melee happened just before the half time siren and then fl owed into the half time break.

Offi cials from both sides, who should have known better, were also involved.

Red Hill has been unrelenting in third quarters this season and kicking with the wind, many believed the pacy visitors could turn it on again.

For the fi rst 17 minutes, Hastings did a wonderful job restricting the Hillmen, despite them getting their noses in front.

However, what happened in the next 8-10 minutes was super impressive.

Red Hill booted six unanswered goals in that space of time and blew Hastings off the park.

Jarryd Douglas, who was clearly the difference between the sides, booted four goals in the third quarter and fi nished the afternoon with six.

Why Hastings didn’t play a loose defender in front of him when he was clearly Red Hill’s only target was staggering.

Robbie Clements, who was released from Frankston Dolphins, played onball and completely dominated. His class and ball use, despite the slippery conditions, were noticeable.

Paul Wintle had the toughest task for the afternoon playing on Colin McVeigh. Wintle matched ‘Col’ in all aspects of the game and even showed the Blues’ star up a few times with his work at ground level.

Benny Maguiness turned the clock back and dominated through the middle while the Dal Lago brothers, Marcus and Pete showed great leadership and composure. Jake Mitchell was also outstanding, his left foot hurting the Blues on many occasion throughout the match.

Red Hill has certainly matured since losing to Rye in the last kick of the day.

Hastings were always going to come back with the wind in the last quarter and they did, booting three goals in

three minutes to get within four goals.However, as the rain became heavier,

so did the composure and lock down of Red Hill.

The Hillmen got a number behind the footy, they slowed the tempo of the match and ensured that Hastings didn’t get their hand off the footy. The Hillmen robbed the Blues of the footy.

When Douglas kicked his sixth of the match at the 20-minute mark, the game was done.

Red Hill ran out comfortable 32-point winners in the end, 15.16 (106) to 10.14 (74).

Whilst Hastings has plenty of injuries, Red Hill won without their leading goal kicker Jarryd Eames and running machines Luke Adams and Matt Hyden.

Whilst there were some at the ground that believe Red Hill’s lack of height will cost them come fi nals time, their leg speed, pressure, workrate and ability to hit up a lead are fi rst class.

A 6.5’ ruckman who can fi ll a hole down back or rest forward would top the Hillmen off nicely.

Rosebud moved inside the top fi ve with a commanding 84-point win against Pearcedale at Olympic Park Oval.

Inaccuracy in front of goal cost the Buds a three-fi gure winning margin, however, restricting the opposition to less than three goals did wonders for their percentage.

When percentage is going to be so important this season at the business end, Rosebud’s is very healthy at 136.74.

Rye, who is in sixth place on the sale amount of wins (six), has a percentage of 103.88.

Hastings is in seventh place, a further game back (fi ve wins) but has a percentage of 122.21.

Of those three clubs fi ghting it out for a place in the top fi ve, Hastings has by far the easiest run home.

Rosebud tall timber Ben Shultz and Ben Dwyer each booted three goals for the Buds while a further eight players contributed on the scoreboard. Tom Baker and Glenn Peterson continued their outstanding form.

Chris Fortnam and Matty White were the best of the Panthers, while Trav Sauer worked hard.

Frankston Bombers made it two wins on the trot, upsetting Rye by 15 points at Greg Beck Oval.

In tight contest all afternoon, the Bombers led for the large majority of the afternoon to win 10.13 (73) to 8.10 (58).

Jay Reynolds and Ryan Marks-Logan (three goals) were sensational for the winners while Ben Simmons and Sam Drake were also at their fi nest.

Chris Gleeson worked tirelessly for the Demons up front and fi nished with four majors while Adam Kirkwood and Luke Semmel tried hard.

Crib Point had little trouble getting the four points against Devon Meadows, winning 16.18 (114) to 7.7 (49).

The Pies started well with the win, kicking six goals to one in the fi rst quarter and setting up the win.

Glenn Boyd fi nished the day with four goals while Luke Herrington kicked three. Dean Warry and David Cook were outstanding.

Alex Doria and Pat Boland were the best of Devon, while Steve McInnes was also very good with three goals.

Leigh Poholke kicked six goals for Sorrento in their 12-goal win against Somerville.

Just like the Magpies, the Sharks booted six goals to one in the opening term and set-up the 18.11 (119) to 6.10 (46) victory.

Ben McCormack was again at his best for the Sharks in the back half, supported well by Chris Bagot, who is back at his best. Todd Hounsell also played arguably his best game for the Sorrento Football Club.

Timmy Hirst and Jedd Sutton were the best of the Eagles.

Anthony Bruhn booted eight goals and Cam Park fi ve as Dromana booted 25.35 (185) to Tyabb’s 4.5 (29).

The Tigers had 25 scoring shots in the fi rst half and 23 scoring shots in the fi nal quarter!

Ash Souter and Rohan West were the best of the Yabbies.

Never in doubt: Red Hill got up over Hastings by 32 points after a nine-goal blitz in the third quarter got the Hillmen home and hosed. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
