By Chris BrennanAFL legend Lenny Hayes reckons Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League players are the coolest foot-ballers in the land.The inspirational St Kilda midfielder

and fellow AFL hard-nut Melbourne co-captain Nathan Jones have signed on as ambassadors to a unique pro-gram that aims to make the peninsula’s junior league a showpiece for fair play and sportsmanship.If the Keep Your Cool program suc-

ceeds in eliminating aggressive behav-iour on both sides of the fence, the AFL wants to roll out the scheme nationally.

The program was developed by pen-insula parents concerned about the lev-el of aggression and hostility creeping

into junior ranks. In one ugly incident last August, a boy was punched during an under-14s final between Mt Martha and Somerville.Keep Your Cool co-chairperson

Wendy Hanrahan said the idea began with casual conversations between parents watching their children play during last year’s finals.“We’d been witnessing some trou-

bling behaviours on both sides of the fence and felt something needed to be done to address the aggression and en-sure football remained fun and safe,” she said.

“Children seem to feel pressured to go really hard and play aggressively, and this can sometimes spill over into actual violence, but there’s obviously

a big difference between professional AFL matches and under-10s.“There are different issues at each

age level that need to be addressed and we want to change people’s perception of what is normal behaviour for junior players.”

She said the Keep Your Cool pro-gram was not about trying to “take the football out of football”.“It’s a tough, physical game and eve-

ryone wants it to remain that way.“But it should also be safe and fun

for children to play where fair play and true sportsmanship are the most highly valued qualities.“Aussie Rules is a fantastic sport; it

encourages mateship, sportsmanship and builds leadership abilities, so we

want kids to feel safe and to enjoy the game and for their parents to be happy for them to do so.”Keep Your Cool was officially

launched during last year’s grand fi-nal day and this year will be the first season in which the program is fully implemented across all Mornington Peninsula junior football teams.

The program will run in conjunction with a Monash University study sup-ported by the AFL that aims to identify and address the systemic causes of vio-lence in junior football.The program aims to: n Promote fair play and sportsman-

ship by fostering a culture of respect through behaviour change on both sides of the fence.

n Gather facts to accurately address both apparent and systemic causes of inappropriate behaviour and measure changes observed over time.n Educate players, spectators and of-ficials on appropriate behaviour and establish a culture of respect at junior football matches. n Improve the quality of junior coach-

es and umpires through building skills and education programs aligned to the Keep Your Cool philosophy.n Develop club accreditation frame-works and practices that reward clubs based on club policies, behaviour his-tory and a willingness to deal with peo-ple who don’t comply.For more details, visit www.facebook.

(Across the carpark from Mornington Central)

CARS and equipment were seized over the La-bour Day long weekend when Fisheries Victoria officers swooped on men with illegal catches of aba lone taken from reefs off Mt Eliza and Morn-ington.

At Mt Eliza, two men were arrested and charged with having 200 abalone, 148 below legal size, and an undersized snapper. Three were appre-hended at Mornington for taking 222 abalone.

During the weekend, fisheries officers issued 20 infringement notices on the Mornington Pen-insula for offences that included exceeding catch limits, taking shellfish from intertidal zones, and taking undersize fish.

Senior fisheries officer Rod Barber said a mi-nority of fishers continue to flout restrictions.

“Illegal fishers continue to run the gauntlet, risking jail sentences, forfeiture of expensive cars, boats and fishing equipment, very heavy fines and penalties,” he said.

Three Endeavour Hills men aged 30, 23 and 17 were arrested after allegedly being found with 222 abalone, including 98 undersized, taken from reefs off Mornington. Mr Barber said the three were interviewed at Mornington police station and will be charged on summons with offences relating to the taking of a commercial quantity of abalone, exceeding the catch limit and taking un-dersized abalone.

It will be alleged the men left two bags contain-ing abalone in bushes to be picked up later.

In a second incident, two men, a 29-year-old of Lynbrook and a 25-year-old of Cranbourne, were arrested after allegedly taking 200 abalone (including 148 undersized) and one undersized snapper from reefs off Mt Eliza.

The daily bag limit for abalone is five, of which no more than two can be greenlip.

The minimum size for abalone taken from Port Phillip is 10 centimetres.

“In both instances, all of the diving equipment and the vehicles used on the day were seized. The five men each face harsh penalties for abalone taken in excess of the catch limit and undersized,” Mr Barber said.

“While the vast majority of fishers do the right thing, a small minority continue to flout restric-tions, risking harsh fines and threatening the sus-tainability of our fisheries for future generations.

“The ramifications once caught are enormous for offenders and their families.

“Courts are imposing heavy fines and signifi-cant forfeitures and jail sentences to send clear messages that this rampant disregard for Victo-ria’s valuable and important fisheries resources will not be tolerated.”

Anyone seeing suspicious or illegal fishing ac-tivities can report it to the 13FISH hotline on 133 474.

Cars seized over abalone catchesReef raiders: Fisheries officers measure and count abalone seized after being allegedly harvested by five men on reefs off Mt Eliza and Mornington.

THOUSANDS of Australians took to the streets on the weekend to protest against a range of Abbott government policies. In the case of peninsula residents, about 100 took to the sand of Safety Beach on a blustery Sunday morning for a rally organised just days before.

“March in March” protesters voiced anger over the government’s inaction on climate change, the treatment of asylum seekers, marriage equality, the tax system, and media ownership.

March in March organisers said many of the Abbott government’s policies were “against the common good of our nation”.

“We have no confidence in policies that go against common principles of humanity, decen-cy, fairness, social justice and equity, democratic governance, responsible global citizenship and conserving our natural heritage.”

The “movement” started late last year on so-cial media with the idea of marching on Parlia-ment House but grew into a nationwide protest.

PENINSULA Surfriders Club is planning a “spectacular event” to celebrate its 40th anniversary later this month.

Secretary Jane Featherston said the club had cultivated a “rich history of surfing life throughout the Mornington Peninsula”.

Peninsula “surfing pioneers” Ted Bainbridge, John Wilson, Skip Easton, Mick Pearce and Michael Schaeffer had officially started the club at a committee meeting held behind a surf shop in Frankston.

“At the time, in the early 1970s, there was a growing group of surfers on the peninsula who were becoming a force to be reckoned with in Victorian surfing,” she said.

This “force” from the peninsula started in 1972 when Mick Parkinson of Blairgowrie won the Victorian junior title.

He was followed the following year by Ian Portingale – and Carol Watts won the women’s title.

“In 1974 we had Ian first and Phil Trigger second in the Victorian open men’s event, which was a huge effort,” Ms Featherston said.

“Carol won the women’s again. Rob Licciardo won the juniors in 1975 and Warren Partington the senior men’s title.”

Ms Featherston said the club’s strength was proved again in 1976 when Portingale and Phil Trigger “did a one-two again in the open men’s” and its juniors took out the first three places at state titles: Kelly Pritchard, 1; Gary Burns, 2; and Ian Cochrane, 3.

The same year Alan “Wally” Tibballs won the Easter Bells trials event.

Mick Pierce won in 1977 and Ian Cochrane won the juniors that year with Phil Coates in 1978 and ’79. In 1986, Garry Taylor won the Easter Bells trials event.

“Before PSC started there were no regular peninsula surfers who attained such high positions in Victorian contests. There were plenty from northern bayside suburbs, but they

all surfed the Torquay area,” Ms Featherston said.

“Now, 40 years later, after thousands of memberships, PSC has grown and evolved to be one of the most respected and successful surfriding clubs in Australia.

“Friendships and families have been built on mutual lifetimes spent in the waves around the

peninsula, and the world.”All past and present members of the club,

their families and friends have been invited to celebrate its 40th from 2pm at the clubhouse, 691 Truemans Rd, Fingal (near Gunnamatta) on Saturday 22 March. Entry is $10.

By Chris BrennanMORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has launched a farm gate guide showing easily accessible sources of cheap and fresh produce to help combat growing food insecurity in the com-munity.

The initiative comes in response to rising concern among social service providers and health professionals that an increasing number of families are being forced to go without basic ne-cessities including fresh food.

The shire is in the process of pro-ducing a food security booklet, action plan and strategy to better connect dis-advantaged people to local produce.

While the Mornington Peninsula is well known for quality fresh produce, a Victorian Population Health Survey found 8.7 per cent of shire residents experience food insecurity, compared to a state average of 5.6 per cent.

A number of social service providers on the peninsula have begun offering free fruit and vegetables to families in need while several “soup kitchens” providing free meals have sprung up.

Lisa Gray of the shire’s health and wellbeing team said the farm gate guide aimed to connect residents with local producers, community gardens and food security programs.

She said food security existed when “all people at all times have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their die-tary needs as well as food preferences for an active and healthy life”.

Farm gate guide aims to deliver food security

Food for thought: Cr Antonella Celi and the shire’s director of sustainable communities Rob MacIndoe launched the Farm Gate Guide last week.

“People who live with food insecu-rity are those who are restricted to easy access to affordable, healthy food and sometimes go without any food at all,” she said.

“The reasons behind this vary, but may include a lack of transport, high density of fast food restaurants, low density of fresh food producers, and poor education about healthy food.”

The mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said access to “fresh, local, affordable food is essential to good health”.

“Food insecurity is an issue than can affect a range of people, for many reasons, and the shire is committed to working toward connecting local peo-ple to local food,” she said.

“Ensuring access to a range of healthy, local food resources can have

great positive impacts on health and wellbeing, and focusing on buying from local producers helps the positive growth of the local economy.”

Cr Celi said the shire would con-tinue to work with farmers, commu-nity groups, welfare organisations and community gardeners to ensure all resi dents could access fresh, healthy and affordable food all year round.

The Farm Gate Guide is available from shire offices, community centres and neighbourhood houses, and can be downloaded from the shire website at www.mornpen.vic.gov.au

THERE must be something in the water at Padua College’s three campuses that makes sporting champions.

In the case of Padua winning another Southern Independent Schools Interschool Swimming Championships, it’s the students in the water.

The swimming team, supported by the entire school community from campuses at Mornington, Rosebud and the new one at Tyabb, dared to dream of 25 wins in a row last week and achieved what could be an Australian record.

Led by veteran swimming coach Colin “Shuggy” Shugg, Padua scored 828 points to top the overall aggregate at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre, easily accounting for second placegetter Woodleigh on 592 points with Flinders Christian Community College third on 581.

The college won in 1988, lost the next year and has now won for the past 25 years.

Padua won all three aggregate age shields (junior, intermediate and senior) as well as aggregate girls and boys shields – a clean sweep.

Principal Christopher Houlihan said Colin Shugg had led the team to all 25 victories, and congratulations were due to all swimmers, the coach, “our sports staff and all the families who helped get students to training and camp”.

“Colin once again dedicated many hours to train and prepare the team, and deserves the credit for this formidable run of victories,” he said.

Di Paolo said the college had held a swimming camp at Lake Hume a week before the championships for more than 20 years.

“We have more than 60 students from years 7-11. It fosters great team camaraderie and may be a key ingredient to our ongoing success.”

Mr Di Paolo said Colin Shugg’s children attended the college and

were members of the swimming team. “Shuggy stayed on after his children finished school and is another key factor in our success. He’s also a pretty good open water swimmer.”

Swimming team members train two mornings a week at early morning pool sessions. The squad swimmers train up to five times each week.

Mr Di Paolo said Padua swimmers

from the early years were now in their late 40s. “They check the Padua Facebook page to see if their records have been broken!”

At the championships last Tuesday, Matthew Faoro (under-14 50-metres breaststroke) and Jessica Faoro (under-17 100-metres freestyle) set new records. (Faoro means “to make gold” in Italian.)

A MUSIC program for young people run by Peninsula Youth Music Society is benefiting from federal government support.

The society showed federal MP Bruce Billson what it had done with its Creative Young Stars grant when he visited the group’s Saturday Morn-

ing Music School at Karingal Primary School.

Society president Nora Morrisroe said the grant provided financial support for participants attending the music school and had helped the “development of young students' creative talents”.

“The society also has a community

youth orchestra and a stage band,” she said.

“The two ensembles rehearse weekly during the school year on Wednesdays afternoons at St Peter’s Church hall in Mornington.”

NO action is expected to be taken to address a “dangerous” Mornington in-tersection, despite ongoing protests by residents.

A petition with 121 signatures was recently delivered to the shire council expressing concern about the intersec-tion of Park Hill Drive and Morning-ton-Tyabb Rd.

Residents say it is dangerous for vehicles to turn right out of Park Hill Drive onto Mornington-Tyabb Rd and have requested a “No Right Turn” sign be installed.

However a report presented by the shire’s traffic and road safety depart-ment at last month’s council meeting said there was “no justification for making any modifications to the inter-section”.

The report stated: “The intersection of the service road and Mornington-Tyabb Rd (at about 160 Mornington-Tyabb Rd) in Mornington is managed by VicRoads.

“Notwithstanding, the concerns raised by the village manager at The Village, 150 Mornington-Tyabb Rd, Morning-ton, with respect to the intersection, have been considered and assessed by the shire’s traffic and road safety team.

“While the traffic and road safety team recognises that it may be difficult to identify a suitable gap and make a right turn from the service road onto Mornington-Tyabb Rd at peak traffic times, there is currently no justifica-tion for making any modifications to this intersection or for providing an alternative or additional access to the

service road. Local drivers who have concerns and/or recognise the difficul-ty in turning right at peak times, and do not want to wait to find a suitable gap, should modify their travel accord-ingly.”

Nicola Belcher of the shire’s traffic and road safety team said in the report drivers should instead turn left at the intersection and then make a U-turn at the roundabout at Dunns Rd, about 900 metres to the west or find an alter-native route to avoid making the right turn.

“Although the intersection may be considered complex at peak times, there are currently no injury-related crashes recorded at this intersection.

“As such, there is no crash history to indicate that turning right from the service road into Mornington-Tyabb Rd is a higher risk than in other similar locations.”

The condition of the intersection, the sight distance and the visibility at the intersection were all considered ap-propriate for the current speed limit on Mornington-Tyabb Rd of 70km/h.

“While the current speed limit on Mornington-Tyabb Rd is 70km/h, at peak times the travel speed is often lower than this due to the volume of traffic on the road.”

However, the report noted the speed limit on Mornington-Tyabb Rd could be reviewed by VicRoads in the future “as an outcome of the recent changes to VicRoads’ speed limit guidelines”.

DRIVERS with outstanding fines have no place to hide – authorities now know where they will be.

Hi-tech equipment is being used to track down serial fine evaders. Police and sheriff officers set up a roadblock on Rutherford Rd on-ramp at EastLink tollway in Carrum Downs on a Wednesday morning earlier this month in the expectation of nabbing some big fish.

The operation paid off. A driver was caught with 445 outstanding warrants totalling just under $125,000. His four-wheel drive was impounded and towed away.

Victorian sheriff Brendan Facey said data analysis found 33 people with outstanding warrants used the Rutherford Rd access road regularly.

“Some people are using toll roads every day and refusing to pay their

tolls, building a huge debt from the fines they are ignoring,” Mr Facey said.

Sheriff officers recovered $27,710 as a result of the roadblock. Thirty-six fare evaders with 1047 warrants owing $312,974 were pulled over.

“This operation should serve as a warning to other fine evaders that we are looking to target people where we know they are,” Mr Facey said.

Six cars were clamped with all but one of the owners making immediate payments to ensure they could drive on.

Motorists can call 1300 SHERIFF to discuss outstanding fines.

Sheriff’s officers have powers to suspend driving licences and registration, clamp cars, seize property and arrest people.

By Chris BrennanA PORSCHE-driving hoon narrowly escaped a bill of almost $15,000 when police impounded a high-performance hire car after catching the driver doing burnouts in Baxter on Monday last week.

The 30-year-old Queensland man was on holiday in Melbourne with his partner and had hired the late-model black Porsche Boxster 987 at a weekend rate of $1000 a day to explore the Mornington Peninsula.

Frankston highway police spotted the Porsche spinning its wheels on Moorooduc Highway, near Sages Rd, just after 10am. They intercepted the driver and were set to impound the vehicle for 30 days under anti-hoon legislation.

However, the following day police returned the rental car to the hire company.

Melbourne’s Sports Car Rentals hires the $100,000-plus Porsche at $495 a day and the Queensland driver would likely have had to pay the rate in full over the 30-day seizure period.

Police said the driver was expected to be charged on summons with a range of offences, including driving in a manner dangerous, careless driving, improper use of a motor vehicle, and excessive speed.

Not so lucky was a 20-year-old man whose Holden ute was impounded after exceeding the speed limit by more than 30km/h in Tooradin last Friday week.

Police detected the ute travelling at 130km/h in a 100 zone on the South Gippsland Highway.

The ute was impounded and the driver found to be driving while disqualified and driving a prohibited vehicle. The Tooradin man is expected to be charged on summons.

Another driver was clocked travelling at more than double the speed limit in Seaford last Mon-day in an unsafe and unregistered vehicle.

Police were parked on Seaford Rd about 9pm when they detected the Holden station wagon travelling in excess of 135km/h in a 60 zone.

Police discovered the car had an under-inflat-ed tyre and three wheels had several wheel nuts missing.

The 41-year-old Frankston North driver had his car impounded for 30 days and faces charges of driving at a dangerous speed, using an unsafe ve-hicle and driving an unregistered vehicle.

SET to exceed all your expectations and desires, this luxurious beachside villa inspires the senses with glorious views encompassing the Melbourne city skyline and across to the You Yangs, and inland to the Dandenong Ranges. The sparkling in-ground pool and limestone facade complement each other beautifully and instantly conjures up images of grand Mediterranean villas. Here, lucky owners can enjoy the sun and coastal atmosphere from the privacy of two alfresco entertaining areas; one is just mere steps from the pool, and the second has the best of the views with a breathtaking view of Port Phillip Bay. The ground floor features three bedrooms and two bathrooms - one is an ensuite, shared between two bedrooms - and a stylish family room has gleaming tiled floors. The wonderful blue view through the windows creates an unbeatable all-natural colour scheme against the crisp white finish. Upstairs, polished floor boards feature throughout an open-plan living zone incorporating a kitchen, dining area, and a lounge. The glamorous kitchen has stone benchtops, a stainless-steel under bench oven, and a full complement of cupboards and drawers for storage options galore. Bi-fold concertina doors open to the deck area that increases the living space considerably. The main bedroom has a lovely dressing room and ensuite, and a fifth bedroom has a walk-in robe. There is also a separate study, which could be a staggering sixth bedroom if required, a guest bathroom with spa, and a brilliant home theatre room which completes this truly feature packed home that measures well over 450 square metres (60-squares). At street level is a triple garage with access through to the south terrace.

Mornington

By Mike HastTHE state government has removed habitat corridors from its plans to pro-tect the iconic southern brown bandi-coot in the southeast.

Conservationists were told about the backflip two weeks ago at a meeting with Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) officers.

It is understood a proposal to create two habitat corridors, or biolinks, cen-tred on the Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne has been dumped from the final version of the Sub-Regional Spe-cies Strategy for the Southern Brown Bandicoot, issued as a draft for public comment in late 2011.

One biolink was meant to run from the botanic gardens south to Western Port’s Quail Island, where there is a viable population of more than 1000 bandicoots after fox and cat removal in recent years.

The second was to connect the bo-tanic gardens with Koo Wee Rup swamp and surrounds, where “tens of thousands of bandicoots live near drains, waterways, railway line re-serves and on private properties”, ac-cording to peninsula wildlife expert Mal Legg.

The government’s move has disap-pointed the Southern Brown Bandi-coot Regional Recovery Group and other conservationists in the region, and led to speculation that housing estate developers have put pressure on the government.

It also inspired the creation last week of an online petition addressed to fed-eral Environment Minister Greg Hunt, who receives an email from every per-

son who signs. The petition was cre-ated by Friends of the Southern Brown Bandicoot member Sarah Maclagan, an environmental sciences PhD stu-dent at Deakin University.

Ms Maclagan has been studying the region’s bandicoots for several years and is co-chair of the bandicoot recov-ery group along with veteran scientist David Nicholls.

The petition – “Don’t strand the bandicoot; put the corridors back!” – states that the recent expansion of Melbourne’s Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) “threatens to surround the cru-cial southern brown bandicoot popula-tion at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne and cut connectivity with other populations nearby”.

Ms Maclagan said the government’s strategy was meant to protect sustain-able bandicoot populations “within and adjacent to growth areas, with connectivity between populations” as well as “protect and enhance all popu-lations, including at Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne”.

“We’re very disappointed corridors have been removed from the final doc-ument,” she told The News.

“Without corridors, connectivity be-tween bandicoot sub-populations will be severed by an impenetrable barrier of urban development.

“The chance of local extinctions of this endangered native mammal be-come much higher.”

She said the petition to Mr Hunt was “our one and only opportunity to pro-vide corridors. Once development has occurred, there will be no going back”.

State government plans to expand

Bandicoot corridor plan axed

the UGB triggered the federal Envi-ronment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act, Ms Maclagan said.

“Mr Hunt has to sign off on the state government changes and that’s why we are asking him to force the govern-ment to reinstate habitat corridors”, including those planned for the Bo-tanic Ridge subdivision near the Cran-bourne botanic gardens.

Ms Maclagan said DEPI officers questioned the use of biolinks “but we have evidence they do work”.

It was disappointing DEPI was fo-

cused on so-called “managed translo-cations” – capturing animals and mov-ing them to other locations, she said.

“For example, the translocation of the threatened eastern barred bandi-coot to French Island was a total fail-ure,” she said.

“All that bandicoots need to survive and thrive is viable habitat protected from dogs, foxes and other predators.”

She said bandicoot were prolific breeders. “The young spend just 12 days gestating and are self-sufficient after two months. Females have be-

tween two and five babies in each lit-ter.”

Ms Maclagan questioned the state government’s habitat protection fee. “The 2011 document stated developers would be charged $6000 to $8000 per hectare to fund the bandicoot protec-tion strategy. This has been reduced to just over $4000 for a hectare that is worth more than $800,000 to develop-ers; that’s half of one per cent.”n The bandicoot petition for Greg Hunt is at: http://chn.ge/1mhaxB8

By Mike HastFRANKSTON forensic zoologist Hans Brun-ner says the state government dumping plans for habitat corridors for the southern brown bandicoot means predator-proof fences should be built around Pines Flora and Fauna Reserve in Frankston North.

The fences were part of Linking Melbourne Au-thority gaining state government permission for Peninsula Link to bisect the reserve.

They were removed from freeway plans by the Department of Sustainability and Environment (now Department of Environment and Primary Industries or DEPI) in 2012.

Mr Brunner has consistently said that as long as dog walking was permitted in the reserve and predator-proof fences were not erected “all is lost for the bandicoots”.

In 2012, DSE/DEPI said no evidence of bandi-coots in the reserve had been seen since summer

2009-10 but Mr Brunner said two bandicoots were spotted late last year.

“The bandicoots are now entirely dependent on intense fox control, which I believe is extremely difficult in the presence of pet and farm dogs, where poisoning cannot be used,” he said.

“Where traps have to be set to avoid dogs, they will also avoid foxes.”

Mr Brunner said the government’s consultant had recommended a network of corridors in the 2011 draft that was “clearly open for harsh criti-cism and demanded a proper review” but “scrap-ping corridors all together has gone too far”.

“This scenario has rekindled the now more desperate need for a predator-proof fence around Pines Reserve where bandicoots can be properly protected as they are at the botanical gardens at Cranbourne,” he said.

Mr Brunner said the Peninsula Link builder had spent $20 million on revegetation and underpasses

in Pines Reserve – four culverts and a two-span bridge – specifically designed for bandicoots. Two drainage structures were also designed to allow crossing by wildlife.

“Southern Way allocated $1.6 million to erect and maintain fences in Pines Reserve to protect bandicoots and other native animals,” he said.

“The irony is the state government agency Parks Victoria wants that money for the protection of bandicoots in the very area where they abandoned the corridors in order to make room for urban development.

“To make the bandicoots absolutely secure must be the ultimate priority. The former DSE allowed eastern barred bandicoot numbers drop to only 40 animals before panic set in. Extinction was so close.

“Now they are gambling with the southern brown bandicoot.”

Time to fence Pines Reserve says scientist

Action needed: Hans Brunner says it’s time to erect predator-proof fences in Pines Reserve.


By Mike HastTHE McClelland Gallery faces a fund-ing crisis following the end of a $400,000 annual grant from its major patron Dame Elisabeth Murdoch.

Dame Elisabeth’s support ended when she died 14 months ago but the shortfall has only just been revealed by the gallery’s management committee.

The grant was about 40 per cent of the gallery’s annual operational costs of $1 million.

McClelland has sufficient reserves for the short term but will face a major funding crisis in the next two years and is seeking alternative sources of funds.

Director Robert Lindsay told The News that McClelland, known formally as the McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery, was entering the third phase of its life.

“Phase one was when the gallery was established by the McClelland family in 1971, then we had the generous support of Dame Elisabeth, and now we are entering stage three where we are seeking support from the community and government,” he said.

The sculpture park and gallery had been developed into a major cultural institution with a growing international profile, he said.

Mr Lindsay said Dame Elisabeth had been a member of McClelland’s arts ad-visory council since the beginning. The Elisabeth Murdoch Sculpture Foundation was established in 1989 to buy works for McClelland, and Dame Elisa beth was the driving force behind the annual $100,000 McClelland Award for sculptors.

Throwing its support behind McClelland is the new citizen lobby group Frankston Community Coalition, formed to get a bet-ter deal for Frankston from the two major political parties in the run-up to the state election at the end of November.

Its convenor, former Frankston mayor

Christine Richards, said the group had six issues that needed urgent solutions includ-ing “the funding crisis facing McClelland”.

She said McClelland was a cultural asset for all Victorians.

“It is the foremost national arts institution promoting and exhibiting sculpture in Aus-tralia. Displaying 112 sculptures in an Aus-tralian bush landscape setting, McClelland is a unique and much-loved community and artistic asset visited by up to 150,000 visitors a year who pay no entry fee.

“It is the second-most popular gallery outside Melbourne and one of Frankston’s most-visited tourist venues.”

Ms Richards said McClelland’s five staff presented educational, community and public programs that combined art with na-ture, and the gallery hosted four active arts and craft groups.

“The elegant gallery and well-managed surrounds provide a strong contradic-tion to those who run down the image of Frankston,” she said.

“Like many galleries, McClelland re-ceives some state government funding through Arts Victoria, but the funding un-derrates its popularity.”

She said McClelland Gallery received $110,000 from Arts Victoria in 2012 when 128,000 people visited the gallery.

“Heide Museum of Modern Art in Bulleen received $1.42 million and had 75,000 visitors.”

Sculpture was an important part of arts culture and deserved more recognition, she said. In the lead-in to the state elec-tion, “we will be asking all major parties to secure the future funding of McClelland Gallery”.

Gallery’s cash crisis

FRANK Peniguel is out to set a record by travelling around Victoria playing bowls.

The 70-year-old, left, has given himself a year to play 600-900 games on different greens to join the holders of Guinness World Records.

Last week he was in Frankston and on the Mornington Penin-sula – Rosebud and Dromana on Tuesday, Mt Martha and Mornington on Wednesday, and Frankston South (Yamala Park) and Frankston on Thursday.

Peniguel joined Elsternwick Bowls Club in 2005 and left his Daylesford home in his Kombi van on 9 January to set a world record.

He will play 10 ends against one bowler from each of the clubs he visits.

Distance is the only thing keeping him away from the Northern Territory and Western Australia.

“It’s just too far between clubs and I need to play all games within one year,” Peniguel said on Wednesday after playing his 100th game at Dromana.

He was also lining up some expert help to enable him to upload photos to his website, hittheroadjack.net.au

Taking to the road for record

YOUNG Mornington Peninsula athletes and sport teams are invited to apply for grants of up to $3000 to help cover the cost of competing in elite-level events.

The Local Sporting Champions grants program is designed to provide support for young people to participate in state, national and international sporting championships.

The federal government grants program, also open to coaches and officials, provides funding toward the cost of travel, accommodation, equipment and uniforms.

Grants of $500 are available for individuals and $3000 for teams.

Flinders MP Greg Hunt said the costs associated with competing at elite sporting events could be significant and the grants aimed to ease the financial burden and make it easier for young athletes to go further in their chosen sports.

Applicants must be between 12 and 18 in the year of the competition.

This funding round close June 30 and forms be received before the competition start date. Visit www.ausport.gov.au for more information.

Six athletes and two sporting clubs from the Flinders electorate have already received grants during the last round of the program, announced last month.

Individual recipients of $500 grants included: basketball players Tristan Lloyd, 15, of Cowes, and Tyson Carr, 12, of Pearcedale; cross-country runner Kayla Cheasley, 16, of Somerville; fencer Lily Baker, 12, of Mt Martha; softballer Chantelle Spencer, 18, of Pioneer Bay; and equestrian rider Stephanie Ivanovic, 12, of Moorooduc.

Peninsula sporting clubs awarded $3000 grants included Point Leo Surf Life Saving Club and the Victorian under-16 polocrosse team, which is based in Moorooduc.

Ron Vincent & Band A Tribute to the Music of

Cat Stevens

THERE was slight inconvenience awaiting her majesty’s arrival in Melbourne last Wednesday when it was discovered her normal place to stay was pre-booked.

The majesty in question was the cruise ship Queen Mary 2, which found itself unceremoniously bumped for a berth at Station Pier by Celebrity Solstice.

Although the 345-metre Queen Mary 2 is the largest cruise ship to use Australian waters, the Port of Melbourne Corporation said it would honour the earlier booking by Celebrity Solstice (115 metres), moving the monarch to the more industrial Webb Dock.

Both cruise ships came and went on the same day, moving south past bayside beaches toward The Heads at sunset.

The second visit of the Queen Mary 2 this year is part of a record cruise ship season ending in May bringing about 200,000 passengers and crew to Melbourne.

“It’s important to give certainty to the cruise lines using Station Pier that we will honour their booking,” port chief executive Nick Easy said.

“We appreciate it is a highly unusual circumstance but Webb Dock is the only alternative berth available given the requirement to accommodate a 345-metre vessel.”

Mr Easy said it was worth making the extra effort for Queen Mary 2.

“Working collaboratively with Cunard and Patrick Ports and Stevedoring, which will play a key role on the day, the port corporation continues to ensure Melbourne benefits from the vibrant cruise tourism sector estimated to generate about $1 million to the Victorian economy for each cruise ship visit,” he said.

THIS is Seaford artist and satirist Tony Sowersby’s take on federal treasurer Joe Hockey’s pronouncement last month that it was the end of the “age of entitlement” in Australia.

Mr Hockey said “the age of personal responsibility” had begun and warned the nation the days of governments saving businesses and jobs was over after federal Cabinet rejected bailing out the SPC-Ardmona cannery owned by Coca-Cola Amatil.

Luckily for SPC, people rushed to the supermarket and started buying its goods, and a major supermarket chain has signed a big contract with the producer.

The government later rejected bailing out carmakers.

Sowersby is best known for his pointed portraits for the Bald Archy Prize, the satirical portraiture contest that spoof the Archibald Prize each year.

Sowersby has won the People’s Choice award three times – in 1998, 2004 and 2005 with The

Cardinal with his Abbott, a portrait of Cardinal George Pell and now Prime Minister Tony Abbott.

The Bald Archy Prize was created in 1994 and attracts artists of all standards and styles.

It encourages portraits ranging from hilarious to vulgar.

Winning subjects have included Kerry Packer, Amanda Vanstone, Edmund Capon, Shane Warne, Dame Edna Everage, John Howard and Pauline Hanson, Robbie and Gai Waterhouse, Rupert Murdoch, Jeff Kennett, and Ian Thorpe.

The comic portraits are shown in Canberra before being taken on tour in eastern Australia.

An art critic wrote last year: “The satirical side of this event has its basis in the irreverent, larrikin Australian comic comment, with great appeal to people from all walks of life, the reason why the exhibition of finalists keeps breaking attendance records wherever it is shown.”

THE Environment Protection Authority ordered Massoni Wines in Dromana’s industrial estate to repair and service its wastewater treatment plant after dark red effluent was allegedly released sev-eral times into a stormwater drain that runs into Sheepwash Creek.

The order followed complaints from residents mid-February that a factory in Brasser Ave was discharging a substance.

A spokesperson for the EPA said the wine com-pany had completed maintenance on its plant in early March. Monitoring put in place would pre-vent further discharges.

The factory’s treatment plant discharge diver-sion valve was found to be defective and had allowed water used during wine production to escape into the stormwater system.

Massoni Wines winemaker Phillip Kettle told The News he would not disclose the company’s dealings with the EPA.

“Look, we’re in the middle of pressing and all I want to say is that we comply with all govern-ment regulations,” he said.

The alleged discharges occurred at least twice during February when the flow of the creek was very low after several weeks of dry conditions.

The discharge occurred less than 2 kilometres from the mouth of the creek where it runs into Port Phillip at Safety Beach.

It entered the creek via a stormwater drain near the corner of Collins Rd and Mornington Penin-sula Freeway’s bridge over Nepean Highway.

One of the complainants, who did not want to be named, said it appeared a large volume of red wine-coloured waste had ended up in the creek.

“At this time of year when flow rates are low, the waste stayed in the creek, causing an intense smell and probably damaging any aquatic life.

“This is at least the third such discharge in the past 6 months.”

Compiled by Matt VowellFrom the pages of the Mornington Standard, 21 March 1914MR Andrew McLellan, a highly esteemed and popular resident, was on Saturday night last entertained by the townspeople of Mornington in the Mechanics Institute, and presented with a handsome writing desk and a valuable Rotherhain gold watch, suit-ably inscribed. Cr J. D. Grover (presi-dent of the Shire) presided, and spoke in glowing terms of their honoured guest, who was leaving Mornington to go into business with his brother, Mr Adam McLellan, M.L.A., of Melbourne. The Hon A. Downward, M.L.A., Mr W. S. Cook, Crs T. Male, A. E. Bates, and other prominent residents expressed regret in losing such a highly esteemed and popular citizen, and, as one speaker remarked, Mr McLellan was looked upon as the father of Mornington, for in sickness or in trouble his services were always sought and cheerfully given, and in every public movement, Mr McLellan was ever foremost.

***THE secretary of the Frankston fire brigade desires to acknowledge with thanks, donations of £6.3s from Sir John Madden, and £1 from Mr Plum-mer towards the funds of the brigade. The above gentlemen are highly pleased with the assistance rendered by the brigade during the recent fires.

***OWING to pressure of our space we are compelled to hold over several contributions to our letter box, and other items of interest.

***A FIRST class concert in aid of the

funds of the Frankston Brass Band, will be held in the Mechanic’s Hall on Wednesday next, March 25th. During an interval, the balance sheet of the band for the past 12 months will be submitted.

***THE committee formed at the last Water Conference to go into the question of rating met on Friday last, and their report will be submitted at the next conference. The report of the engineer is now prepared, and copies will be printed for distribution before the next conference is held.

***THE fifteenth half yearly meeting of the Langwarrin Progress Association was held in the vestry of the Method-ist church on Monday evening, March 9th. There was a fair attendance of members and the president Mr J. Archibald occupied the chair. The report for the half year was a very satisfactory one, and showed that good work had been carried out by the working bees, lectures had been arranged for and given by Mr Rinto-ral, the English poultry expert, on matters of great importance to poultry keepers, and by Mr C. D. Sampson, the American fruit packing expert, on the successful packing and marketing of fruit. A very enjoyable social was also tendered to Cr Lloyd to celebrate his return for the third time as the representative of this district in the Cranbourne shire council. Other mat-ters of importance to the district had also been attended to, and altogether the work carried out by the associa-tion showed that it was a valuable factor in the district. So much so that it was imperative that everyone in

the district should join and help on materially the good that was being done. Owing to four members having left the district, the membership had declined to that extent. The balance sheet showed that a good amount had

been expended for the term, leaving a small credit balance. The election of officers resulted as follows:- Presi-dent, Mr J. Archibald. Vice president, Mr H. Oates. Hon. Secretary, Mr C. W. Murray. Treasurer, Mr P. J. Mur-ray. Committee: Mr C. J. Corlett. Mr J. Corlett, Mr Eliott. Mrs W. Oates, Mr A. J. Clarke, Mr S. Lloyd, Mr C. Stowe. Auditors: Messrs A. J. Clark

and J. Corlett. Mr Archibald and Mr Murray were highly complimented on the successful manner in which each had carried out their respective duties for the term and the President suitably responded. A coffee supper provided by the ladies, and to which full justice was done, brought the proceedings to a close, not, however, before a hearty vote of thanks was accorded the ladies for so thoughtfully providing the supper.

***THE anniversary services of the Methodist church were celebrated on Sunday March 15th, and the two ser-vices held in the afternoon and even-ing were especially well attended. The Rev Copeland conducted the afternoon service and Mr E. J. Stran-ger, the evening. Both to an apprecia-tive congregation. On the following evening, Monday, a very enjoyable concert was held, performers for which not only embraced local talent, but also 6 visitors from Melbourne, Frankston, and Cranbourne.

***IT is with much pleasure that I can now announce that the letter box at the Langwarrin Railway Station will shortly be cleared at 5.30 p.m. by the guard of the train running through Langwarrin to Melbourne at about that time. This will prove a great boom to all residents, thanks for which will be gratefully felt by the humble person, who contributes voluntarily most of the items of this districts news, and for which he sometimes receives more kicks than coppers.

***THE Somerville Show was formally

opened by Sir Frank Madden, who, while expressing the great pleasure it gave him to be present, said that he was amazed to see the improvement in the district.

There had been a marvellous development on the best lines, and Somerville had made its name known all over the world. There was more to be done, however, and he advised the younger fruitgrowers to find out every possible wrinkle regarding the grow-ing of fruit, the markets. etc., and told them not to stop till they were at the top. It gave him pleasure to declare the show open, and he wished it every success.

***ON Saturday next, the French Island Cricket Club will visit Tyabb, and try conclusions with the local team. The secretary would like as many of the local ladies who can attend in the afternoon, and kindly assist with the serving of afternoon tea.

***I WISH to endorse all the recom-mendations made by “Fair Play” in your last issue. The Eramosa road is certainly a disgrace to the Shire and the Councillors. It may interest a few of your readers to know that there were only two loads of metal put on one mile of this road during the past two years, which I think constitutes a record for a main road. A better system for the inspection of the roads ought to be made. I will readily offer my services to take the Councillors along this road in a cart, dray, or wagon, on a tour of inspection, but not in an automobile as it might strain its mechanism trying to force its way through the impassable wastes.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

By Stuart McCulloughART-ROCK ensemble R.E.M. once opined: “That’s me in the corner.” When it comes to attending live music events, not only am I invariably in the corner, but way up the back, wedged against a vending machine and stuck behind someone who’s much taller.

Live music is a wonderful thing, but sometimes the idea of seeing a band live doesn’t quite match the actual experience. That’s because seeing a band is an exercise in faith. You go in the hope that it might be an exhilarat-ing, life-changing experience. Mostly though, it’s a really late night from which it takes you the rest of the week to recover.

I was in a band before I really started seeing them. At thirteen, I played synthesiser with some older people. It sounds incredibly cool but, in truth, I was terrified of playing a dud note. Not long after, I was in a band with kids my own age including my younger brother.

One of our earliest gigs was support-ing a band called The Switch. They were older and American and we were awestruck. To them, we would have looked like we’d just finished work at Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory.

Somewhere, I have a tape of that apocryphal performance. It’s just a couple of minutes but, believe me, it’s more than enough. The song in question begins with an atmospheric synthesiser overture before – gulp – a spoken word introduction.

It gets worse. Whilst the first part of the song is

performed in near darkness, when the band kicks in, the guy at the desk wakes up and we are bathed in light.

It’s at that moment that we begin our synchronised dance moves. Had I been in the audience rather than on the stage, I doubt very much that I would have complained about being in the back corner with my view obstructed. I would have been grateful.

There are certain rules when it comes to seeing a band. Firstly, wher-

ever you stand is a thoroughfare. Peo-ple will push in front, behind and side on as they seek to get from A to Z and all points of the alphabet in between.

Secondly, all attendees at a concert have a duty to try to prevent some-one’s drink from being spilled. Not just your own. Holding a drink that’s lapping at the brim creates an auto-

matic right of way. The third rule is that, no matter how

tall you are, someone taller will stand in front of you. You could be as tall as Chinese basketball giant Yao Ming and drop in to catch a set by your favourite band and still end up with someone obstructing your view.

For some reason, I always have a lousy view when I go to see bands. Even if I arrive early and use fluo-rescent traffic cones to cordon off a space that’s stage centre, I invariably find myself shuffled like a dud card to somewhere down the back of the venue. Although I’m always pressed up against the emergency exit, I have a friend who has an uncanny gift to find her way to the very front no matter how crowded.

We once arrived at Festival Hall to find it stuffed like a cocktail olive. Within seconds, she had vanished into the crowd, weaving her way towards the front. My brother and I remained where we were. For some reason, the crowd seemed unwilling to let us pass and resented our attempts to do so. Perhaps they thought we were pushing in. Maybe they had seen the video of us supporting The Switch and wanted to teach us a lesson. Either way, they had a point.

There’s a band I like called The National. They play a literate brand of baritone art rock that appeals to me greatly. That the band members are all my age probably helps. It is music for the head, as well as the heart.

When they announced they were touring Melbourne, our friend Dr J got tickets. When we arrived at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, I immediately

headed for my usual position along the back fence behind the recycling bins. However, it seems Dr J had managed to secure tickets in row ‘N’, right smack-bang in the middle. I could see the stage. I could even see the people on the stage. It was an experience that was so strange, so novel that I barely knew what to do with myself.

After two hours of exhilarating music, all of which I saw as well as heard, the concert reached something of a crescendo. It was then that lead singer, Matt Berninger, threw himself into the audience and, with micro-phone in hand, began making his way through the crowd. As the song went on he drew ever closer until he began to stroll down row ‘N’ in our direction.

The people to my left celebrated by groping him, filming the assault on a mobile phone. As he squeezed past me, I applied ‘public toilet rules’ in which I did everything humanly pos-sible to avoid actual physical contact. Matt Berninger, obviously apprecia-tive of my efforts not manhandle him, looked up. Not only were we the same age, but the same height also, both with a beard and glasses, except Matt Berninger looked every inch the rock star and I looked like I’d just been to Bunnings.

In a strange way, it was like looking at a novelty mirror.

Whether it was glimpse of the road less travelled or just a great night out matters little. I’m just grateful that there are people not unlike me who are making great music. And that I ever got close enough to realise it for myself.

scoreboardMORNINGTON NEWS

PROVINCIALBy IT GullyMORNINGTON was in the box seat to turn years’ of disappointment into a year of great achievement in the MPCA Provincial grand final.

The Doggies have been the most consistent side in the competition this season and went into the match against Sorrento as favourite.

Meanwhile, the Sharks were looking to make amends for their poor showing against Peninsula Old Boys the season before in the big dance.

In that match against the Old Boys,

the Sharks were bowled out for 133 chasing 197.

History seemed to set to repeat itself on the first day of the 2013/14 grand final, with Sorrento up against it at 8/120 off 56 overs before rain put a stop to the day’s play.

The Sharks’ only source of hope could be to draw on last year’s final when they had POB reeling at 8/123 before the Old boy’s Trevor Johnson went on to make 59 to help his side to 197 and victory.

On Saturday, the Sharks won the toss and elected to bat.

Despite heavy rain prior to the match at Dromana Reserve, the ground was playing well but was still slippery under foot.

Luke Popov and Michael Heib took the new ball for the Dogs and were right on target early.

Nick Jewell opened the batting with Jedd Falck and while Falck was scratchy, Jewell belted a short Heib ball to the boundary with a classic pull shot off the first delivery he faced.

The Mornington fieldsmen were up and about and their efforts in the field were first class, a number of cracking

Jewell shots stopped without a run being made.

Both Popov and Heib were swinging the ball away from the left-handed Falck and into Jewell.

Sorrento quickly fell to 2/22 after Popov got rid of Falck and Heib knocked over Liam O’Connor before he could add to the scoreboard.

Mornington skipper Matt Foon then rattled the pegs of Jewell with his second delivery of the day, and when Leigh Poholke became Popov’s second victim after a blinding one-handed catch at fine gully, the Sharks were

reeling at 4/30 from just 13 overs.Anthony Blackwell, who averages

just eight in finals, needed a big score to get his side back in the contest. He top scored with 26 but that wasn’t enough. Chris King contributed 17.

At the end of play, Nick Davern was unbeaten on 23, with AJ King at the other end. AJ’s highest score this season was seven. Davern has already passed his highest score of 16, which happened to be against Mornington in round seven.

Popov finished day one with 3/27, while Foon finished with 3/28.

Doggies dance over Sharks

DISTRICTBy IT GullyA MAGNIFICENT spell of fast bowling from Pines opening quick Brett Remy placed his side in the box seat to win the MPCA District flag.

In front of a massive crowd at Mornington’s Alexandra Park, Pines rolled Delacombe Park for just 94 in 52.5 overs on Saturday, before finishing the afternoon themselves on 0/37.

The evergreen Remy, who seems to threaten retirement every season, bowled 21 overs against Delacombe Park.

Remy finished with the more than tidy figures of 5/33, including 10 maidens.

When he took his fifth wicket, his figures were 5/11 from 14 overs.

The Parkers were never in the contest, losing wickets at quick intervals.

Jon Gurthrie was rolled for a duck by Nick Wilcox after facing 20 balls and, although Nick Christides’ first two scoring shots found the boundary, he was rolled for 13.

After eight overs, Delacombe Park was 2/13. They then struggled to 5/42 from 28 overs.

Joel Malcolm scored 13, Chris Brittain seven, Simon Dignan eight and Andrew Christides was out for a duck.

Ben Brittain (13) and Shane Deal offered a little bit of resistance in the middle order, taking the score from 6/43 in the 30th over to 6/70 at tea. Brett Chard made a handy 17 at the end, while Varun Singh scored nine, but it wasn’t enough to push the score beyond 100.

Chasing just 95 for victory, Pines resumed on day two at 0/37, Remy unbeaten on 21 and Rhys Chalkley on 16 not out.

Two flags in three seasons for Pines

SUB-DISTRICTBy IT GullyAFTER years of heartache, it appears Red Hill has finally kicked the monkey off its back.

Going into the grand final against Rosebud as hot favourites, the Hillmen had to put seasons of failed attempts behind them to place themselves in a position to taste the ultimate reward.

The Hillmen have lost their past two grand finals against Pines and Seaford Tigers. And despite rain interruptions throughout the day’s play, the Hillmen were able to set-up their win with a sensational opening day of batting.

After winning the toss and batting at Pearcedale Reserve, the Hillmen got away to a flier, with openers Andrew Mock and Ken Sullivan putting on 84.

Sullivan was the attacking batsman in the opening stand and lost his wicket a short time after Mock (25) for 51. That brought Rheede Hopgood and Simon Dart to the crease together within a short space of time.

Hopgood was the aggressor in that partnership and with Dart, helped take the score from 2/84 to 181 before he was tragically run out for 64. Riley Shaw (six) and Brent Martin (five) didn’t hang around long and at the close of play on Saturday afternoon, the Hillmen were in the box seat at 5/216.

With Dart unbeaten on 49 and with Lincoln Toy (two not out) and Andrew Brown and Jamie McCall still to come, the Hillmen are well set up to push 250-plus.

In anyone’s language, it’s not often a side that scores over 250 in a grand final lose. The Hillmen scored 197 in the grand final last season against Seaford Tigers (7/296), while the year before, the Hillmen were rolled for 99, chasing Pines’ 281. History says Red Hill was in a terrific position on Saturday night.

Jason Nagel was the pick of the Rosebud bowlers after the first day with 2/61 from 26 overs. Darren Kerr and Peter Doughty were the other wicket takers.

Third time lucky for Hillmen in final

Mornington

By IT GullyMORNINGTON run machine Ben Clements was crowned with the Mornington Peninsula Cricket Association’s highest honour last week when he won the W B Wedgewood Medal.

Clements (17 votes) polled in seven of the 11 games this season, finishing three votes clear of two all-rounders, Long Island’s Scott Phillips and Baxter’s Dale Irving, as well as Sorrento skipper Nick Jewell, who all finished on 14 votes.

Crib Point’s Luke Herrington was a further vote back on 13.

Clements scored 1185 runs this season, 806 of them coming in 13 innings in home-and-away matches.

This gave him an average of 62 for the season, with a high score of 129 against Mt Eliza in round 3 (he also scored 126 against Heatherhill in round nine).

Clements’ lowest score for the season was five against Long Island. He scored 40 in the second innings of that match.

Clements also scored plenty of runs in the Jack Peacock Cup, including knocks of 99, 70, 84 and 118.District

In District ranks, Delacombe Park teammates Chris Brittain and Jon Guthrie drove each other to the line in a tight and tense medal count. But the skipper, Brittain, finally nudged out the opening batsman to win the E G Betts Medal.

Brittain polled in six games to give him 15 votes while Guthrie was just one vote back after polling in five matches.

Seaford star Damien Lawrence was third in the count on 13 votes while Shaun Foster (Carrum) and Corey Hand (Seaford Tigers) both polled 12 votes.

Brittain scored 407 runs this season with a highest score of 104 against Baden Powell in Round nine. His batting average was 36.45. He also snared 39 wickets at an average of 9.10. His best bowling figures were 6/36 against Hastings in Round four. Sub DistrictIn the Subbies, Red Hill star Simon Dart was a raging-hot favourite for the Robert Thompson Award and won it with 14 votes.Dart tipped out Dromana’s Danny Timmer and Balnarring’s Mark Walles, who both polled 11 votes.

Rosebud’s Jason Nagel, along with Paul Bradley (YCW), Glenn Collett (Red Hill), Jacob Cook (Balnarring) and Shayne Gillings (Pearcedale) all polled 10 votes.Dart scored 608 runs this season and picked-up 12 wickets.He scored his first century (111) of the season in the final home-and-away game against YCW. He then backed it up with 135 in the semi-final. He averaged 67.44 for the season.His best bowling was against Dromana in round one when he snared 5/11 from eight overs but he didn’t bowl beyond round eight.

FOOTBALLBy Toe PuntWITH only a couple of weeks before the Mornington Peninsula Nepean Football League season opens, there are still plenty of player movements.Pearcedale will be devastated that both Rohan Hensby and Chris Swan have applied for clearances to head to the Goulburn Valley League.

Hensby and Swan arrived from Tasmania a few years ago and have been sensational additions to the Panthers.

The defender and midfielder will be big losses and come on the back of the loss of underrated Glenn Anderson, who is heading to the Ellinbank League.

Nick Watersone is the latest player

to want out of Tyabb after applying for a clearance to Bonbeach, while Warren Hubbard also wants out.

Red Hill has picked up promising former Mornington player Rhys McConville-Brain.

Darren Booth has finally applied for a clearance from Rye to head back to Mt Eliza.

The Demons knew at the end of last season that the star defender would be heading home.

Hastings meanwhile has picked up Jarryd Elton from Tooradin. The Blues have also snared Karingal speedster Dale Alainis, a very dangerous small forward. From all reports, the Blues’ practice-match form has been superb.

Meanwhile, there’s been talk for a few years about when Seaford gun Brayden Irving would join his

brothers at Frankston to play VFL.He has made the move this year,

coming as a major blow for the Tigers.Bonbeach is adding some depth,

none bigger than former Melbourne and Brisbane Lion player Travis Johnstone.

Harley Ambrose is the latest player to want out of Karingal, joining the likes of Sam McGarry, Chris Hay, Brendan Dunne, David and Tim Hirst, Callan Dixon, Stephen Charalambous, Daniel Noble, Dale Alainis, Jared Eames, Ryan Jenke, Jack Johnson, Kane McKenzie, Anthony Joel and James Tyquin.

Finally, clever and talented Mornington forward/midfielder James Cameron is going to try his luck in the VFL.
