THE GRANDMEAL DEAL

ESTABLISHED as a “temporary” school in 1987 and left to take care of itself over the following 30 years, it’s no wonder Mornington Special Devel-opment School is dilapidated and run down.

Claims of asbestos hidden inside the walls, leaky roofs, run-down portables

and substandard facilities don’t paint a pretty picture of the school in what’s acknowledged as being a low socio-economic part of town.

That’s not to say the care and welfare of its 33 students is neglected, it’s not, but the surroundings are less than de-sired by the seven staff and principal David Newport.

Despite last week’s trumpeting by the state government that it will earmark $156 million from the budget to educate

students with disabilities, and spend $68.5 million on refurbishing 20 spe-cialist schools, the Mornington school has again been left out in the cold.

“We are not on the list and no one has contacted me,” Mr Newport said.

“There is no process [for updating facilities] that I know of and it is very frustrating as we want to afford our students as much dignity as possible.

“We need fi t-for-purpose facilities for our 33 students and nine kindergar-

ten-age pupils.” Mornington MP David Morris has

called on the state government to fund the “much needed relocation” of Mornington Special Developmental School to Hastings.

“The school is in a poor state, and needs to be relocated to the land set aside for it there,” he said.

“The government must have over-looked the Mornington special school. With less than 50 students, it is too of-

ten overlooked.” It was always expected that the

school would receive new buildings, and ageing plans are awaiting approval at head offi ce, but “we haven’t heard anything,” Mr Newport admitted. “I think it’s a case of being out of sight, out of mind.”

He said he would contact the Educa-tion Department and “explore alterna-tive avenues for obtaining funds”.

PUNTERS at the Mornington Racing Club erupted, Monday, when the Tony Noonan-trained Beleura Belle crossed the line fi rst in Race 3, The Eliza Dry Cleaners Plate. And it’s not hard to understand why …

The three-year-old is owned by residents of two retirement villages – Beleura Village in Bungower Rd and Peninsula Grange Village in Racecourse Rd – as well as a group of mums from St Thomas More’s Primary School, Mr Eliza.

About 100 Social Syndicate members were on course to cheer her on – with their fi nancial support also probably bringing down her odds to even-money favourite in the six-horse race.

It seemed everyone trackside was on a winner. So great were numbers that, after the race, the owners’ room proved too small for the trophy pres-entation and arrangements had to be made to do the honours elsewhere.

“The social owners became involved through a program that Mr Noonan developed where groups with a ‘commonality’ of interest – such as social clubs or retirement villages – are able to lease a horse for as little as $10 each a month and enjoy all the social aspects of racing and the thrill of winning,” Tony Noonan Racing business manager Gemma Lambe said.

Part-owner Carol Rooke, of Beleura Village, couldn’t agree more: “It’s been absolutely unbelievable for us oldies,” she said, after watching Beleura Belle’s race-day success at its fourth start.

“We are delighted that it involves so many residents; it’s been a great concept.”

Mr Noonan introduced the social syndicates after success a decade ago with the KSC Syndicate. “They were a terrifi c group with a fi lly called Bionic Bess, which was probably the best fi lly I have been involved with,” he said.

“They enjoyed the fun of race day and I could see the potential of the social syndicates as an affordable option.”

Now that he is not involved in training “big numbers of horses”, Mr Noonan found he had time to present the concept to various groups, such as local retirement villages, and “things have gone on from there”.

“It’s turned out exactly as I hoped,” he said. “I’m confi dent in the ‘prod-uct’ and the owners are confi dent they are being looked after.”

it’s onto a good thing, too. “Having more people involved in owning a racehorse makes it more affordable – and it certainly brings more people to the course,” general manager Stephen Bell said.

“Tony [Noonan] has been proactive in this regard and he’s now reaping the rewards.

“We’ve had a massive increase in attendance, especially for a Monday meeting, and the groups have gener-ated lots of atmosphere and excite-ment even early in the day.”

Beleura Belle’s $9000 prizemoney would not have been much money af-ter being divided up among so many owners and deducting the trainer’s and jockey’s fees, but it can add up.

Word has it that the mums from St Thomas More Primary have been able to put aside $2000 for other social activities. And that’s on top of the fun they had watching Beleura Belle salute the judge.

Mrs Rook said the 40 members of her syndicate met once a month and “enjoyed it so much”.

“For the small amount we’ve put in it’s been wonderful and created such a sense of community,” she said.

Half of her 40-member group attended the Mornington race for “their” fi lly’s fi rst win. “She was ‘on the brink’ last time; it’s a learning curve.

“She was the favourite [Monday] but she’ll always be at short odds be-cause there’s so many of us backing her in syndicates.”

School works MORNINGTON Primary School has been allocated $5 million in the state budget to replace outdated buildings.

Principal Silvio Vitale said the money would be used to complete the fi rst and second stages of a mod-ernisation project, covering all core classroom learning areas.

“When these stages are completed, the children will be in buildings that are similar in design to the Junior Learning Centre,” he said.

“The Bristol building will be gone, the light timber construction building gone, the art room gone, the old, antiquated toilet block gone.

“This is fabulous news. After so many years, the needs of our school have fi nally been recognised and responded to.”

Mr Vitale said Education Minister James Merlino had “honoured a com-mitment to our school”.

“We can now look forward to making Mornington Primary the best it can be in facilities that refl ect a modern 21st century education.”

Free green wasteRESIDENTS can reduce the amount of green waste around their homes by taking advantage of Mornington Pen-insula Shire’s no charge green waste weekend, Saturday 30 April-Sunday 1 May.

Green waste from cars and trailers will be accepted free at tips at True-mans Rd, Rye, McKirdys Rd, Tyabb, and Watt Rd, Mornington.

Opening hours are 8am-5pm both days.

The no-charge weekend is for shire residents or ratepayers only, with green waste to be delivered only from private cars and trailers. No com-mercial vehicles or commercial green waste will be accepted.

Consider using the Tyabb site to avoid potential delays at Mornington, which only accepts up to three cubic metres of green waste per trip.

Those disposing of rubbish should bring their driver’s licence or proof of residency.

Green waste includes all types of garden waste and untreated timber.

Rosie morning teaROSIE Batty will be at Australia’s biggest morning tea, 10am, Wednes-day 11 May, at the New Peninsula Centre, 370 Craigie Rd, Mt Martha (off Moorooduc Rd).

Funds raised will aid the Cancer Council. Trading tables will allow guests to bring a gift and buy a gift – such as lemons or jams – to aid cancer research.

Entry is $10. All welcome as well as friends. Details: Bette Pearson 0403 624 568.

MORNINGTON Peninsula shire is eyeing a share of $1 billion in state government funding to improve road safety.

It is aiming to become the fi rst mu-nicipality in Australia to align itself with the TAC’s new Towards Zero campaign.

Six fatalities in the shire this year are among an average annual 120 serious injuries from crashes.

Four locations have been initially identifi ed to achieve Safe System prin-ciple measures or better:

Point Nepean Rd, Rye: This com-mercial area has had four cyclist and fi ve pedestrian casualties in the past fi ve years;

Balnarring township: Regular crash-es here identify the area as “high risk” to vulnerable road users;

Coolart Rd: This rural arterial cor-

ridor has had three fatalities and 39 casualties in the past fi ve years, and

Mornington Peninsula Freeway: A high incidence of run-off-road crashes in the section from Peninsula Link to Rosebud has resulted in many fatalities and serious injuries.

The mayor Cr Graham Pittock said that while the shire had made “substan-tial commitments” to road safety im-provements over many years, road trau-ma remained at “unacceptable levels”.

“The shire will collaborate with the TAC, VicRoads and Victoria Police to demonstrate safe system principles and become the fi rst Towards Zero mu-nicipality,” he said.

“Being a declared Towards Zero municipality best positions the shire to attract state government funding for improving our roads and reducing road trauma.”

FED up with having cars parked across their driveways, rubbish strewn in streets and on lawns, and 20-some-things wandering the streets urinating behind bushes, “concerned residents” in Mt Martha have formed The Pillars Residents Action Group.

Theirs is a campaign from the heart, and they are determined to protect their little piece of paradise from what’s become a marauding herd of young people invading the once-pristine shoreline – in ever-growing numbers.

As part of their campaign, the group successfully requested young people’s tourism website AWOL – which had listed “Jumping off The Pillars” as one of the ‘Top 20 things to do’ on the Mornington Peninsula – to remove reference to the site from their web page. The site had claimed to reach “over two million young and engaged Australians every month”.

Another possible catalyst to their cam-paign was the ripping out of six no-park-ing signs by disgruntled young motorists looking for easy places to park.

Up to 800 young people visited The Pillars one day last summer for some ‘cool’ fun in the sun, swimming in the clear waters and jumping off the rock formations. It’s a pattern repeated eve-ry warm day and most weekends over summer, and spurred on by favourable comments on social media.

“Our group formed in response to the current situation where high numbers of non-local young people are coming to the area to jump off

the rocky cliffs,” group member Sue Davey said.

“They are parking illegally, leaving rubbish everywhere – including in Lily Gully reserve at the bottom of Deakin Drive – and generally causing havoc in streets nearby.”

The residents’ group is not satisfi ed with Mornington Peninsula Shire’s

proposal to lift the current ‘no parking’ restrictions in many local streets.

“For residents in these streets, this is unacceptable,” Ms Davey said. “There are no formal pathways or crossings to get to The Pillars, no bins, many roads are narrow and unsealed and there are no toilets or facilities.”

A shire traffi c and transport team

plan to “holistically address parking concerns” near The Pillars aims to en-sure minimum road widths are main-tained through parking restrictions.

Traffi c and road safety offi cer Digby Smith told the group by email that “most community concerns highlight-ed that road access (particularly in the case of an emergency) was being im-peded by parked vehicles on both sides of local roads near The Pillars”.

He said there were inconsistencies in current parking restrictions, particu-larly on Deakin Drive. “As a result, it is proposed that parking only be re-stricted on one side of Deakin Drive.”

“At this stage the traffi c and trans-port team is compiling feedback like yours about the parking plan for Briars Ward councillors … and to be able to update the community with a fi nalised parking plan.”

The shire is liaising with the Depart-ment of Environment, Land, Water and Planning and VicRoads over long-term plans for the popular site.

Mr Smith said: “Initial feedback from DELWP is that closing The Pil-lars is not an option given their experi-ences in other locations.

“We have raised concerns related to the ongoing erosion, safety of pedes-trians using the cliffs and crossing The Esplanade, rubbish issues as well as poor behaviour being exhibited on a regular basis.

“It is intended that a long-term direc-tion be determined by the land man-ager responsible for The Pillars so that we can then implement infrastructure, enforcement and education to support this direction.”

Mr Smith said a group request for

a path between Mt Martha shops and The Pillars had “been recorded into our footpath construction database for future consideration”.

The shire said constructing a foot-path along The Esplanade was “a very diffi cult project given the terrain, cul-turally sensitive sites in the area, sig-nifi cant native vegetation and minimal space within the road reserve”.

“Given the footpath would be on crown land managed by DELWP, their consent would also be required. We receive a large number of requests for paths on the peninsula and a path be-tween Mt Martha shops and The Pil-lars is not currently a high priority,” Mr Smith said.

Ms Davey, of Lempriere Av, said the group had “no intention of closing The Pillars”.

“We just want to get rid of the rub-bish, parking problems, have safe walking paths from the South Beach carpark, and parking bays in Margue-rita Av and Deakin Drive.”

Another idea is to build a lookout overseeing The Pillars to take away what’s attracting young people in the fi rst place. “About 99 per cent of the visitors are P-platers and we think they love the fact that it’s hidden away,” Ms Davey said. “Having families able to access a lookout and watching them would take away its allure.”

The group has created a Facebook page where interested parties can com-ment, with entries to be forward to the council before the end of April.

Continued from Page 1Mr Newport – who joined the school

in November after 13 years as princi-pal of Springvale Park Special Devel-opment School – was unaware of any proposed move to Hastings.

He estimated the school needed $50,000-$100,000 to renovate its port-ables and update its playgrounds in Robertson Drive.

Despite the physical neglect, he praised the compassion and capabili-ties of his staff. “The school is what it is,” he said.

“Because we are small we all pull together and each teacher knows each student. We provide speech therapy and physiotherapy.

“The teachers go above and beyond to provide the best in care and atten-tion for their students.”

Mr Morris said he called on the gov-ernment to fund the proposed reloca-tion in last year’s budget – but “no funds were forthcoming”.

“This will be the second budget where the government has refused to provide funding for students in our community who are most in need.”

Mr Morris said that being listed in the Victorian Building Futures Pro-gram for rebuilding and relocation to Hastings meant the school was unable to receive Building the Education Rev-olution funding.

“The school was offered a new port-

able, but, with their limited space, they could not accept it and reluctantly had to hand the money back,” he said.

“The school currently has no perma-nent buildings and lacks many facili-ties that most other schools enjoy. In 2009 they had 10 portable buildings with an average age of 30 years.

“The school has done a fantastic job with what they have. They deliver great

outcomes for students, and the staff work tirelessly to ensure that students aren’t disadvantaged by their school facilities.

“It is time the government played their part.”

THE state government has signed a memorandum of understanding with Melbourne University to establish a marine research centre in part of the heritage listed former quarantine sta-tion despite a master plan for the fu-ture use of Point Nepean National Park not being due for release until later this year.

The agreement means that the uni-versity will receive $2.1m over six years from the National Environmen-tal Science Program towards estab-lishing a National Centre for Coasts and Climate (NCCC).

The university says it will provide a $3m “matching investment”.

Vice-chancellor Professor Glyn Davis said the university was “happy to be moving forward with more ac-tive discussions about its plans for the site”.

“The Point Nepean National Park provides a unique place-based learn-ing and research environment,” Prof Davis said.

“The university hopes to contribute to the future of the park, and looks for-ward to working with government and with the community in exploring this development.”

The state and federal governments left it up to the university to issue a news release about the proposal which it says is “still subject to the commu-nity consultation process that will in-form the Point Nepean Master Plan”.

The Victorian National Parks Asso-ciation’s project manager Chris Smyth said giving the university “preferred

occupier” status was pre-empting the master planning process.

Mr Smyth said previous proposals for Point Nepean by the university had been fl awed and gave notice that the VNPA would “vigorously oppose any similar proposal”.

“Preferred uses should be those that are open to public scrutiny and max-imise benefi t to the national park, not those for which the public has been sidelined in the process,” he said.

The state Minister for Environ-ment, Climate Change and Water, Lisa Neville, said the agreement with Melbourne University would not pre-empt outcomes of the process by Parks Victoria “that will inform the Point Nepean master plan that is currently underway”.

Ms Neville said the federal govern-ment’s $2.1 million would have been lost if the state had not come to an agreement with the university.

She said the money was “going to be taken off the table at this federal budget”.

“If the community does not support the university’s proposal, it won’t go ahead, which is clear in the MoU,” Ms Neville said.

The student union publication Farra-go in March 2015 reported the NCCC “has been designed as an educational interface between the university and the general public” with the university concentrating on “outreach programs and research activity pertaining to coastal productivity”.

“A Coastal Discovery Facility will be

Keith [email protected]

constructed within the main complex that will serve as an interactive learn-ing centre and public aquarium, show-casing Southern Ocean marine life. The university plans to use this space to run short courses in environmental science, management and engineering. Construction on the entire facility has already begun, with completion ex-pected in 2016,” Farrago reported.

The university says the centre will research coastal ecology and manage-ment, “as well as delivering teaching in those areas”.

The university also hopes to es-tablish a Coastal Discovery Centre, “showcasing this research and contrib-uting to greater public understanding of the ecological and cultural treasures of Point Nepean”.

Flinders MP and Environment Min-ister Greg Hunt said that the $2.1m re-search funding “will enable the NCCC to pursue research focusing on carbon accumulation rates in coastal veg-etated habitats - known as blue carbon - coastal erosion and coastal revegeta-tion”.

Long an advocate for coastal re-search at Point Nepean, Mr Hunt said the money was “intended to position the NCCC as a world-class research facility into the threats and opportuni-ties presented by climate change in the coastal zone”.

“The old quarantine station’s empty buildings are an ideal location for this research centre. It will allow for the adaptive re-use and ongoing care of some of the site’s nationally-signifi -cant heritage precinct,” he said.

Mr Hunt said the NCCC would be a partner in the Earth Systems and Cli-

mate Change Hub under the National Environmental Science Program.

The 2009 management plan signed by then state Environment Minister Gavin Jennings and his federal coun-terpart Peter Garrett also proposed a National Centre for Coasts and Cli-mate at the quarantine station.

There was no mention of the Univer-sity of Melbourne: “There is an oppor-tunity to encourage educational vis-its, particularly by secondary school groups undertaking curriculum-based and VCE studies, and tertiary study groups covering a range of disciplines including the sciences, arts and hu-manities,” the plan stated.

The years leading up to that plan saw the Launceston-based Australian Maritime College and La Trobe Uni-versity abandon plans to occupy part of the national park.

Melbourne University was included in the 2014 proposal by the Point Lei-sure Group and accepted by the Denis Napthine-led state government based around a luxury hotel, thermal pools and “health and wellness”.

The current state government won’t say how much it paid to end the con-tract with the Point Leisure group.

The latest announcement seems a far cry from the university’s initial plans for the NCCC which, on 26 June 2010, Mr Hunt told parliament involved a $7m fi t-out of buildings; provided places for 110 students; $2m “trail-ing rent”; $50 million provided by the Commonwealth through different sources; and, the state placing $10 mil-lion in escrow “purely for the purposes of the quarantine station area”.

THREE authors have started a crowdfunding campaign for funds to publish a history of Mt Eliza’s famous Ranelagh Estate.

Ranelagh was designed in 1924 by world-renowned American architects, planners and designers Walter Burley Griffi n and Marion Ma-honey Griffi n, who came to Australia to direct their winning international design for Canberra.

During their time in Australia, the Grif-fi ns also created town plans for Eaglemont in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs and Castlecrag in Sydney as well as designs for Newman College at the University of Melbourne and the Capitol Theatre in central Melbourne.

Ranelagh – A Special Place has been written by Dr Meg Breidahl, Diane Dick and Victoria Grounds, whose combined time as residents of Ranelagh is more than 100 years

The work traces the history of Ranelagh from pre-history to the present.

Ranelagh is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register and classifi ed by the National Trust.

Co-author Victoria Grounds, a retired architect

who started life in the heritage-listed Betty Ram-say House on Ranelagh Estate, said the place in history of “this unique seaside corner of the Mornington Peninsula” was often overlooked. “This is the fi rst time a detailed history of Ranelagh Estate has been recorded,” she said.

“Ranelagh remains an outstanding example of the Griffi ns’ progressive environmental and philosophical ideals.”

She said the book would comprise about 200 pages of text, coloured illustrations, maps, walk-ing trails, copies of original documents, photos of local identities, well-documented history and local gossip. “Many historic photographs have never been published.”

The book would appeal to tourists and locals alike, she said.

The authors are seeking fi nancial support from local residents, businesses and through a crowd-sourcing website.

CAROLYN Gleixner, 26, is the Labor Party candidate for the federal seat of Flinders held by Liberal Greg Hunt since 2001.

Ms Gleixner unsuccessfully ran against Nepean MP Martin Dixon (Liberal) in the 2014 state election.

After distribution of preferences in the six-candidate contest, Ms Gleixner had 42.37 per cent of the votes com-pared to Mr Dixon’s 57.63 per cent.

Ms Gleixner has a Building Certifi -cate, Degree in Construction Manage-ment and a Masters in Project Man-agement.

She has recently worked in Germany and before that was a “team leader … specialising in effective change lead-ership” for a development consultancy in Melbourne.

“My career experience has given me a practical understanding of business effi ciency and effectiveness, and a fo-cus on solid outcomes, which I intend to put to good use in Canberra,” Ms Gleixner stated in a news release an-nouncing her candidacy for Flinders.

Mr Hunt is the federal government’s environment minister.

“I will be focusing on the environ-ment, including protecting Point Ne-pean, Ramsar listed Western Port and our national treasure, the Great Barrier Reef – which have all been under at-tack from past and current Liberal governments,” Ms Gleixner said

“I am really angered by the Liberals lack of respect and constant attacks on the environment.”

She said people were “appalled” at the government’s attitude towards the environment “and want an MP

Former state candidate sets sights on Canberra

who will address climate change and strongly advocate for alternative re-newable energy use and innovation, including advocating for a fair return for rooftop solar”.

Ms Gleixner said she would also be “strongly advocating for Gonski needs based funding for our schools and af-fordable tertiary education”.

Ms Gleixner said the government had made to cuts to the health budget and, if elected, would “advocate for maintaining Medicare … Labor set up Medicare and we want to keep it”.

She said a Labor government would “save our economy” and release the country from “the undue infl uence of corporate giants”.

Labor’s hope: Carolyn Gleixner is Labor’s candidate for the federal seat of Flinders held for the past 15 years by Greg Hunt.

FIT and active, lean and strong … that doesn’t sound like the CV of a poten-tial heart attack victim, but the biggest killer of adult Australians is anything but predictable.

To prove that point, more than 100 patients have gone through Peninsula Health’s new chest pain unit in less than two months and one, Pearcedale’s Dale Worthington, certainly doesn’t fi t the mould of the usual victims.

Mr Worthington, a 41 year old kitchen-and-bathroom renovator, was at work when he experienced a loss of breath and tightness in his chest.

He went straight to his doctor who referred him on to Frankston Hospital where he became the 101st patient

to go through the Rapid Assessment Chest Pain Unit which was opened by Premier Daniel Andrews and Health Minister Jill Hennessy only in Febru-ary.

At the unit, specialist cardiologists provided a quick assessment of his chest pain – one of more than 2000 patients they will see each year.

An ECG showed fl uid around his heart.

“If I was a smoker or drinker or obese I’d know that I have to change my lifestyle, but, in my case, I’m not really sure what I’ll have to do”, he said.

Access to the unit was a lifesaver for Mr Worthington whose heart was rac-ing at 199 beats per minute. “I am nor-mally very fi t; I watch what I eat and weigh my food and count the calories

so I can compete in body building,” he said, which makes the exact cause of the problem hard to pinpoint.

Heart issues on both sides of his fam-ily may provide a clue.

Even after concerted efforts by doc-tors and the absorption of beta block-ers, Mr Worthington’s heart was still pounding away at 114 beats per minute but, thankfully, stabilised a few days later at 75 beats.

While still having all sorts of tests, Mr Worthington said treatment at the new unit had made the inconvenience at least bearable.

“I had the best experience,” he said. “The unit is fantastic and the staff were amazing.”

He says he’ll be paying more atten-tion to his health from now on.

Heart attacks less deadly now assessed quicklyHeart attacks less deadly now assessed quickly

Taking heart: Chest pain unit registrar Dr Tim Smith, patient Dale Worthington, and associate nurse manager Western Port Damian Flenley.

A DINING setting more in keeping with a res-taurant than a ‘soup kitchen’ is enhancing the experience of Mornington Community Meals program participants.

Now back at St Peter’s Anglican Church in Albert St, Mornington after renovations, the organisers held a small celebration to mark its return last week.

In three years it has provided around 5000 meals to locals experiencing social isola-tion, as well as local residents who ordinarily wouldn’t be able to afford an evening out.

The meals are served by volunteers in what is more of a robust hub of friends enjoying each other’s company, community meals com-mittee chairperson Lisa Elliot said.

“Not only has the community meals service reduced the isolation for a group of around 40 community members, but they also enjoy in-teracting with the volunteers who have a better quality of life due to their involvement.”

Ms Elliot said “everyone involved in the program is richer for the experience”.

“I have had reports that our diners are physi-cally healthier due to the menu of three healthy courses being provided free of charge twice a week,” she said.

“I never expect to see our diners actually putting on weight, [but] it really struck us that some of our residents were going without meals due to their low-incomes.”

On any Monday or Friday – no matter if it is Christmas, Easter or a public holiday – the meals are served by volunteers dedicated to a culture of providing nourishment and com-munity.

“Observing some of our most vulnerable community members taking care of each other is the greatest lesson for us all. Many of them would give you the shirt off their backs if you asked.

“Those who are struggling most in this com-

INDIAN mynas are known as the “cane toads of the sky” – and for good reason.

After being introduced into Melbourne market gardens in the 1860s, in the misguided belief that they would control insects, their numbers along the eastern seaboard have skyrocketed.

They adapt easily to urban and rural land-scapes and are now recognised by the World Conservation Union as one of the world’s 100 worst pest species.

The aggressive, territorial pests are a serious threat to native birds and other small animals. Concerned about their effect on local native bird species, Southwest Mornington Peninsula Land-care Group members invite residents to become part of their Indian myna trapping project.

The group was overwhelmed when more than 90 people attended their trap-making work-

how to set up a Start Your Own Trapping workshop, 10am-noon, Saturday 30 April, at Dromana Community Hall, 359 Pt Nepean Rd, Dromana. His email is [email protected]

Mornington Peninsula Landcare staff are working with men’s sheds across the peninsula in building traps for the project. They hope the trapping project will ease pressure on indig-enous fauna.

It’s reported the Cairns Remove Indian Mynas Group, working with their local men’s sheds, have removed about 40,000 birds since 2011. Interest in the trapping program will ensure a similarly positive result can be achieved here, they say. Details: call 5950 1279.

ALWAYS polite, Frank Hart never-theless knew how to make a point or win an argument. Preparation and knowledge was a key to his success.

A seafarer and former harbourmas-ter at the Port of Hastings, Mr Hart’s many qualities were remembered and highlighted in the accounts of his life given at his funeral in Mt Martha on Thursday 24 March.

Mr Hart, 82, had died the previous Sunday from pancreatic cancer.

Ann Forrest, his partner of 32 years, described him as a “practical, hands on man” enamoured by sailing since being a nine-year-old in England’s Lake District where he would “con lifts with fi shermen”.

He was a boarder 1946-50 at The Nautical College, Pangbourne, near the Thames in Berkshire, which at that time offered a curriculum specifi -cally designed to prepare young men for the merchant marine. In his fi nal year he won the school’s seamanship skills cup before going to sea as a cadet, rising to the rank of second in command.

His early years at sea with the Brit-ish merchant navy saw him bring-ing cargoes to Australia and New Zealand. He migrated to Australia with his fi rst wife Wendy Brown and son Timothy in 1960, setting up house at Boronia.

After having two jobs connected with stevedoring in his adopted coun-try and fi ve years with the Austral-ian merchant marine, Mr Hart was appointed assistant harbourmaster at the Port of Hastings in 1966, a posi-tion he held for six years before being

Voyage ends for a master mariner

given the top job which he held for 16 years.

He and Wendy and sons Timothy, Richard and Malcolm, lived at fi rst in Crib Point and then Hastings as a requirement of being harbourmaster. The couple divorced in 1982.

Mr Hart met Ms Forrest in 1984 and they lived in Mornington for 15 years and then Frankston for 13. They moved back to Mornington just over two years ago.

While in Frankston Mr Hart spent a decade with Frankston Beach As-sociation, becoming at various times

president and secretary. Mr Hart was a critic of the plans to build a marina at the foot of Olivers Hill, both for reasons of marine safety and the effect he believed it would have on beaches from Frankston to Mordialloc and in Daveys Bay, Mt Eliza.

After many decades, the marina has never materialised, although Frankston Council remains offi cially committed to its development.

In later years Mr Hart became known as an “expert witness” during hearings into the state government’s Port Phillip channel deepening

project. Leader of the Blue Wedges campaign against the channel deepen-ing Jenny Warfe, said Mr Hart was “an unexpected but most welcome arrival”.

“It soon became obvious that through his expertise as a master mariner ... Frank was offering us a rare gift,” Ms Warfe said in an email soon after hearing of Mr Hart’s death.

The campaign ultimately failed and environmentalists now say the loss of sand at Portsea’s bay beach is one of the consequences of the dredging.

Ms Warfe said Frank Hart’s “unique contribution” to the anti-channel deepening campaign “was alert-ing us to aspects of the project we hadn’t even thought of: including the complexities of the shipping industry, channel design and current speed, and the risks associated with moving ever bigger and bigger ships through shal-low treacherous waters”.

“Frank was an expert in the true sense. He was deeply well informed. He wasn’t paid for his opinion, he gave it freely. He owed no-one and no-one owed him,” Ms Warfe said.

“He spent hundreds of hours prepar-ing for these appearances, researching widely and writing detailed witness statements. No doubt his evidence contributed to the highly creden-tialed 2004 panel recommending that the project, as designed, should not proceed.”

Ms Forrest said Mr Hart had been an advocate for Western Port as the “logical” site for Victoria’s next con-tainer port.

“He believed in it thoroughly

because it had the depth for big ships, there were rail links and it seemed ridiculous for ships to spend four and a half hours in Port Phillip to reach the Port of Melbourne,” Ms Forrest told The News.

However, in recent years Mr Hart had changed his mind, saying “Darwin is going to be the port for Australia” as Melbourne was “too far away” for ships to come.

“All over the world countries are shifting their ports to the ocean’s edge, not in bays. They can off-load their cargoes straight onto rail.”

One source of great pride to Mr Hart was a boat far smaller than those which had had had a hand in bringing safely to port. Ms Forrest jokingly says she was “behind Isabella [a 29 foot Harrison Butler designed sloop] in the pecking order”.

As a couple, Ms Forrest and Mr Hart sailed many seas in the Isabella.

The sloop’s journeys included a shorthanded 19-day trip to New Zealand in 1997, which saw it battle through three storms, the same ones that created havoc in that year’s Syd-ney to Hobart.

In her obituary to Mr Hart, Ms For-rest recalled how they had fi rst met aboard the Isabella and how “sailing became our connection, both north and south of the Equator”.

“I can still see us sailing under the bridge at San Remo, Phillip Island, on the way across Bass Strait to Tasma-nia. Not a quick passage on Isabella, but always cosy and, as Frank said, it gave us more time to count the stars.”

A FLURRY of activity at Mornington Toyota is the start of a 10-month redevelopment aimed at turning the dealership into the “most modern and technically advanced in Australia”.

The Nepean Highway site is crowded with trucks, temporary fencing and construction equipment, while management has moved to temporary premises.

Dealer principal Anthony Smith said, despite the rebuilding works, “it’s business as usual”.

“We’ve covered all bases with more than adequate facilities in sales, service and parts departments all on the one adjacent Nepean

Highway site”, he said. “When construction is completed, we will

have a state-of-the-art motor dealership that’s the benchmark for other car dealers to aspire to.”

Mr Smith took over the dealership four years ago. “As the local dealer for Australia’s foremost brand of cars, commercial vehicles and 4X4s, I have ensured that our business not just meets, but exceeds our customers’ highest expecta-tions.”

The company has achieved Toyota’s “Five Star Guest Experience” rating for superior service in all aspects of the business, he said.

Walking in an eco wonderland

MANY properties promise tranquillity, however few can deliver in a manner such as this incredibly private 2.02-hectare lot featuring a fabulous mud brick home bursting with character and quirkiness. Enjoying total seclusion at the end of a gravel driveway that is fl anked by native bushland, civilisation is still close at hand with the boutique shops of Balnarring down the road, however for those that want to truly embrace the good life, this property is a sustainable sanctuary with rainwater tanks, bore water, solar panels, a chicken coop, fruit orchard and an enormous vegetable garden. The beautiful mud brick

home could have been conjured from the pages of any fairy tale with soaring cathedral ceilings and clerestory windows accentuating the sense of space and light throughout, with brick fl oors adding that rustic touch. There are two distinct wings, each with a bathroom, connected by a wood-panelled hallway with large windows affording a view out to the pool. The north wing is a delightful open plan affair which includes a kitchen with Asko dishwasher and a stainless-steel oven. There is an adjoining family room with meals area and a study nook, all warmed by a wood heater, and you can take the feature curved staircase up

to an adorable loft space perfect for a fi fth bedroom. The south wing has four excellent bedrooms – three with built-in robes – confi gured around a massive formal lounge and dining room with a crackling open fi replace adding extra ambience. Perfect for older children needing a bit more space is the rumpus room which is adjacent to two of the bedrooms. External features are equally as impressive with a magnifi cent alfresco patio and pool area creating a stunning bush oasis. Supremely versatile, this incredible eco-wonderland also includes a fi ve-vehicle carport with workshop as well as several other sheds for storage.

***SOME local sports are creditedwith winning large amounts at theEaster race meetings. Mr Col. McK-enzie won a good race at Cranbourne with his own horse which was well backed locally, whilst another local sport is reported to have netted a large amount over the Epsom and Williamstown meetings.

***A CHAR-A-BANC, while on its way to Mornington on Tuesday, with alarge party of returned woundedsoldiers on board, broke down inFrankston. Good Samaritans, inthe shape of Mr W. Catanach (chair-man of the State Waters Commis-sion) and Mrs Catanach, turned up and entertained the party at dinner, at the Pier Hotel, which generous act was much appreciated by the belated

ones.***

ANOTHER old and respected resident of this district has passed over the border, in the person of Mrs Cottier, who died on Monday evening last at her residence, at the ripe age of 81 years. The deceased lived here for the last 27 years in the enjoyment of average health up to about last Xmas, when she had a nasty fall from which she never seemed to fully recover. The remains were interred in the Frankston cemetery on Wednesday afternoon, the Rev E. Tonkin offi ciating at the grave. A grown up family of three daughters and fi ve sons are left to mourn their loss, her husband having pre-deceased her many years. Mr H. Gamble conducted the funeral arrangements.

***THREE of our local sports appearto have had a rather exciting time on Easter Monday. It appears that they drove out for the purpose of having some rabbit shooting, but owing to the scarcity of game, they got tired travelling about, and lay down for a spell. One of them fell asleep, and by some unexplained means the grass around him caught fi re, and he was with diffi culty extricated from his exceedingly warm position by his companions. After this they deter-mined to return home, and on the way a rabbit was sighted,and fi red at, but the horse happened to be not bro-

ken in to stand under fi re and com-menced kicking up, with the result that one of them was thrown out. After getting the horse quieted, they proceeded on their way, and arrived home without further mishap, but minus any game, and fully con-vinced that rabbit shooting is not the game it is cracked up to be.

***THE Good Friday and Easter ser-vices at St Paul’s Church, Frankston, in spite of bad weather on the Friday, were in many ways more successful than ever before. The midday service on Easter Day was unique in more ways than one. At that servicethe number of communicants and the amount of the collection were in both cases larger than at any previ-ous service in the history of that church. Very noticeable also was the pro-found reverence on the part of the congregation. Only once previously was an Easter evening service as large as that of last Sunday. The Ves-try of St Paul’s have had many fi nan-cial sets back since the war started, and for some months past have had a big struggle to keep things going andpay all accounts up to date. Their anxieties have now been removed for the time being, as the special Easter offerings were more than double those of last year, and £10 more than ever before, the largest previous being four years ago. This is very encouraging to all concerned.

On Anzac Day, at St Paul’s Church, services were held in memory of the landing at Gallipoli. Thanksgivings for the bravery of the men, and inter-cessions for the peace of the fallen and the victory the arms of Great Britain were offered, and the Vicar gave a short address.

***ANZAC Day was celebrated at the Rosebud State School on 20th April in the presence of a number of par-ents and friends. The programme, ar-ranged by the Education Department was carried out under the supervision of the teacher, Mr Perrin, and the as-semblage was addressed by Mr E.J. Alexander, J. P. and by a returned Anzac , Sergt Major Cotterill, who described in an interesting manner the historic landing in which he took part, receiving three hearty cheers atthe conclusion of his speech. An honor roll of over 20 names of former scholars now at the front or enlisted showed that there was no lack of patriotism in Rosebud. The ceremony concluded with the singing of the National Anthem. The scholars were much disappointed at the non-arrival of their Anzac medals, and it would appear that better arrange-ments could have been made for an equitable allotment of the number struck.

Over the years, the Hammam in the Bath House bathing area has proven to be a popular experience; therefore the Hot Springs team have decided to introduce the experience into the Spa Dreaming Centre. The Hammam experience incorporates hot steam hydrotherapy with a cleansing ritual, and use helps to deeply cleanse the skin and boost circulation while relaxing muscles and relieving tension. Other new bathing experiences available in the Spa Dreaming Centre include hammocks, a foot bath and a new barrel bath which was designed and handcrafted by a local bespoke furniture maker ‘Richard Amy Furniture’.

By Stuart McCulloughDEVO were right: it really is a beauti-ful world we live in. In fact, I’d even go so far as to say that it’s a beautiful place to be. We should probably whip it real good, but that’s another story. Granted, this big old Earth has its fair share of problems and you don’t have to look too far to fi nd pain, misery and misfortune. But then there’s the good stuff: the unexpected things that serve to bind humanity in general and the planet more broadly together. One such event happened just recently. I refer, of course, to RSS Boaty Mc-Boatface.

After Albert Einstein invented the Theory of Relativity, the next law of physics he developed was ‘Never Work with Kids or Animals’. This scientifi c fact has been proved mil-lions of times since, but with technol-ogy being what it is, these rules are in serious need of a re-draft. ‘Never Ask the Public to Name Anything’ ought to be a fundamental law of the Universe, unless of course, you’re happy to ac-cept the consequences.

When the National Environment Research Council had a new four hun-dred million dollar boat, they asked the public for name suggestions. The polar research vessel will carry scien-tists to the Arctic to answer important scientifi c questions such as: ‘how’s climate change going?’ and ‘what’s Santa Claus really like?’ There were many worthwhile name suggestions including ‘the David Attenborough’ and ‘the Endeavour’. Some smart alec even suggested the ‘Ice Ice Baby’. But, by far and away, the most popular suggestion was ‘RSS Boaty McBoat-

face’. As names go, Boaty McBoat-face is immensely stupid. And that’s what’s so wonderful about it.

You might say it was the fi rst time I was truly responsible for anything. In year ten, I volunteered to be part of the editing team for the end of year school magazine. It was an awesome responsibility. A select few got to de-cide which of our peers had produced work worthy of publication. It was (and probably still is) a big deal. This magazine went not only to the stu-dents but their parents. Cleverly, class photos were buried within the pages, increasing the likelihood that adults would give the thing something more

than a cursory glance.It was my fi rst taste of real power.

Frankly, power tasted pretty good. The thing about a school magazine is that it’s not always easy to fi nd top-notch creative works to include. Luckily, I had access to a near-limitless supply of jaw-droppingly awesome poetry; namely my own. It was inevitable that many of my works should fi nd their way into the fi nished product. Had it been left only to me, the thing would have been chock-full of my teenage creative outpourings and my picture on the cover (probably). Luckily, oth-er people were involved and provided something of a steadying infl uence.

One of these was Mark. We’d been friends for years and he was (and still is) a really creative guy. Editing is a task performed in the dead of night and I’ll admit that I got a little tired. And a little silly. A plan was duly hatched – Mark and I would combine our wit and wisdom to create the stupid-est poem we possibly could and then sneak it in to the end of year school magazine. After all, we were the edit-ing team. Who was going to stop us? To write a spectacularly stupid poem, you should fi rst come up with a title that has absolutely nothing whatsoev-er to do with the contents of the poem itself. We chose ‘Little Bunny Rabbit’.

Having lured readers by creating false sense of comfort, we then offered up the following poetic magic:

Love is like a winter’s day,Sometimes it comes, sometimes it doesn’tLove is like a winter’s fi re,Its fl ames are burning with desire,It also burns the wood we put on it.

It’s popular these days to hold

events called ‘poetry slams’. As far as Mark and I were concerned, this was a poetry slam-dunk. That it took two people to author this poetic tour-de-force probably caused considerable puzzlement if not concern. Convinced it was completely hilarious, we en-sured our poem appeared in a promi-nent place within the magazine. We held our breath as the fi nished product was duly distributed to every family at the school. To my surprise, no one said a thing. Our masterpiece went by, failing to provoke anything by way of a reaction. Perhaps it was not nearly silly enough. Or maybe they saw it for what it was: a harmless bit of fun.

The people have spoken. There’s more than enough that’s serious in this world. There should always be a little room for stupid. Soon, Her Majesty’s Royal Research Ship, Boaty McBoat-face, will be sailing the icy seas of the Arctic, seeking to unravel the myster-ies of the Universe. God’s speed to all that sail in her. To celebrate I might write a poem. A poem that is as silly and stupid as possible.

PENINSULA LEAGUEBy Toe Punt SEAFORD won its second game on the trot in MPNFL Penin-sula Division, holding on to beat Bonbeach.

The Tigers led by 28 points at the last change after leading by just two points at the long interval, however, the Sharks stormed home in the last to fall short by 11 points, 13.13 (91) to 11.14 (80).

Seaford coach Ben Murphy told the RPP Footy Show on Sat-urday morning that he was confi dent that his young charges would continue to improve throughout the season.

“The guys clearly lacked leadership when I arrived and as far as I was concerned, this was the fi rst thing that I needed to work on.

“Leadership, I believe, comes from empowerment and that’s the way I’ve treated the group – they need to take control and I will provide all the support I can,” Murphy said.

“It was also important to recruit players who were leaders, the likes of Dean Williamson and Kyle Matthews have been important in the teams’ development, while the likes of Josh Stokes, Aaron Walton and Kain Taylor are senior players and provide strong leadership.

“The group also needed to understand, accept and execute a brand–new game plan, which is always going to take some time.

“I’m really confi dent that we have a committed group of players throughout the club. We’ll experience some highs and low because that’s footy but I’m excited about this season and the future.

“My previous role was not dissimilar to the Seaford role. The club has experienced great success in the past, fallen behind a little, has great kids and a good junior club and eventually we worked our way to win premierships again.

“That’s the plan here at Seaford,” Murphy said.Dean Williamson and Kieran Shaw were outstanding for the

Tigers while 11 individual players hit the scoreboard.Luke Damon booted three goals for the Sharks in his fi rst sen-

ior game for the club while Jackson Bennett and Dylan Jones shone.

The Sharks have a pretty good list and would be concerned to be winless after three rounds.

Chelsea is inside the top fi ve after winning its second game on the trot also, this time against Langwarrin.

The Gulls set up the win in the second quarter with a power-ful seven goal to one term, opening up a commanding 43–point lead.

Despite not being at full strength, the Seagulls still managed to boot 7.4 to 7.2 in the second half to run out 17.10 (112) to 10.7 (67) winners.

Matty Baxter booted four and Curtis Bywater three goals for the winners while Todd Gardniner and Grant Trew continued their great starts to the season.

Kieran Albanese booted four for the Kangas while leaders Shane Paterson and Gerard Brown collected the top votes.

On Sunday, Pines got its season back on track, beating Edith-vale–Aspendale, while Frankston YCW fl exed its muscles, beating Karingal by more than 100 points in the Frankston RSL Cup.

TOW TALLY RELIABLE

NEPEAN LEAGUEBy Toe Punt THE ANZAC Round of football in Nepean League was soured on Saturday when Tyabb midfi elder Adrian Clay was airlifted to hos-pital.

At the 30-second mark of the third quarter in the match be-tween the Yabbies and Sorrento, Clay had his head over the footy and was about to pick it up when a teammate came hard off the square and accidentally hit him in the head.

Clay laid motionless on the ground as trainers attended to him.

The game was called off a short time later as it was obvious that further medical attention was re-quired to assist the midfi elder.

Just before the air ambulance ar-rived to take Clay to hospital, he started to regain feeling in his legs.

The news the following morn-ing (Sunday) was even better. The club confi rmed that initial scans had appeared positive, although he would require further testing.

Sorrento coach Nick Jewell said it was a worrying time for every-one at the ground.

“It was certainly a strange feel-ing but everyone was just con-cerned about Adrian and hoping that he was OK,” Jewell said.

Before the game was called off, Sorrento was in total control.

The Yabbies did well to hold the

Sharks in the opening quarter (3.5 to 0.1) and early in the second, however, the fl oodgates opened at the seven minute mark of the sec-ond quarter.

The Sharks booted seven goals in 23 minutes with Luke Tapscott adding two more to his two fi rst quarter goals and Nick Corp domi-nating also with a couple of goals.

Tyrren Head was also enjoying his best game of the season.

The Yabbies didn’t kick a goal in the fi rst half, such was the strong defensive pressure of the Sharks.

Josh Connell and the in form Luke Rigg were getting their hands on the footy and Scott Tor-py was continuing his good start to the season also.

When the game was called off though, everyone quickly forgot about the fi rst hour of the game.

Down the road at Pier St Oval in Dromana, the home side won its second game of the season, knock-ing over Rye by eight points in a thriller.

Four goals to Beau McMurray in the third quarter got the Tigers’ tails up again after they trailed by 21 points at half time. The home side booted six goals to two points in the third to lead by 18 at the last change.

To that point in the game, 15 of the 16 goals had all come from the Mt Martha end of Pier St oval. Rye was kicking with the advantage in the last.

The Demons got within two points of the Tigers with just two minutes remaining, however, a mark and conversion to Droma-na’s Beau Cosson with 55 seconds on the clock sealed victory.

Billy and Jackson Quigley were outstanding for the Tigers while Mitch Gill-Furness was unques-tionably their best four quarter contributor.

Ryan Mullet was clearly the best player on the ground for the De-mons with 41 possessions while Kris Bardon wasn’t too far behind with 38 touches.

The challenge for the Tigers now is to fi nd consistency in the kids – they have to shorten the gap between their best and their worst. It will come with experience, how-ever, wins against Sorrento and Rye should give them enormous confi dence that their best is good enough.

On Sunday, Rosebud continued its up and down season, infl icting Red Hill’s fi rst loss of the season.

The Buds opened well, got their noses in front and held their oppo-nents at bay for the duration of the match.

In the other Sunday match, Dev-on Meadows ended the season of Crib Point.

The Meadows held off an early onslaught from the home side be-fore working their way into the contest, taking control and win-ning comfortably.

Mornington wins Anzac clash, Heart on topMornington wins Anzac clash, Heart on topBy Craig MacKenzieMORNINGTON continued its recent success against Langwarrin with a 2-1 win in their Anzac clash at Dallas Brooks Park on Sunday.

Mornington struck in the 5th minute when livewire striker Wayne Gordon stole in behind the Langy defence and toe-poked the ball past teenage goalkeeper James Foster who was deputising for the injured Robbie Acs.

The simmering feud between these fi erce local rivals burst into open confl ict with a melee in the 33rd minute sparked by a tackle involving Mornington midfi elder Paul McE-voy and Langy defender Alex Van Heerwarden.

McEvoy was shown a straight red card and referee Hary Milas later confi rmed that the send-off was for serious violent conduct in the form of a two-footed tackle.

Langwarrin midfi elder Sam Scott also was sent off after retaliating dur-ing the melee and receiving a second yellow card.

In the 65th minute Langy striker Caleb Nicholes was brought down inside the box and converted the resulting penalty to make it 1-1.

Gordon was thwarted by a superb save by Foster in the 75th minute but the teenager was helpless when Andy McIntyre scored an own goal in the 86th minute while attempting to clear.

Straight from the restart Morning-ton keeper Kris McEvoy was forced into a fi ne save by Langy midfi elder Boris Ovcin and two minutes later a Nicholes free-kick was destined for the top corner until McEvoy at full

stretch tipped it wide.Frankston Pines lost its State 1

South-East home clash with War-ragul United 4-1 on Saturday.

Pines took the lead in the 12th min-ute when Kyle Crawford’s cross from the right found Nick Lekakis whose shot was parried by Warragul keeper Jake Richardson and tapped in by CJ Hodgson.

Four minutes later scorers were level when Pines keeper James Laminski charged off his line but only succeeded in hammering the ball into Warragul striker Liam Johnston who ran onto the ricochet and knocked it into the open goal.

Just before half-time Lekakis was pressured off the ball which was slot-ted in between Pines’ central defend-ers for Sam O’Dea to run onto and slip past Laminski to make it 2-1.

Johnson got his second from the penalty spot in the 75th minute and O’Dea’s double came in the 91st minute in an incident that saw Lamin-ski taken off with a head injury that required stitches.

There were three goals in the fi nal four minutes of Saturday’s top-of-the-table State 2 South-East clash between home team Peninsula Strik-ers and Old Scotch which ended in a 3-3 draw.

Strikers senior coach Craig Lewis and assistant Billy Buchanan refused to be interviewed after this seesaw-ing goal fest in which Strikers blew a two-goal lead and threw away the points in the fi nal minutes.

Their anger was palpable and it was directed at their players for poor defending and lack of concentration.

Strikers’ scorers were Ali Osmani (38th minute), Paul Presti (55th) and Trevor Johnson (91st).

Old Scotch’s scorers were John Beamish (penalty 60th), Peter Mas-sarany (89th) and Adem Awal (93rd).

The State 2 South-East clash between Beaumaris and visitor Sea-ford United turned into a rout with the home team winning 6-0.

The result leaves Seaford with just one goal to its name this season and 11 against.

Skye United’s promotion push in State 4 South gathered pace with Saturday’s 3-0 home win over Har-

risfi eld Hurricanes.Opposing keepers Jonathan Crook

(Skye) and Paul Seeley stole the show in the fi rst half.

Crook made two fi ne refl ex saves in the opening 30 minutes and Seeley matched him in the 40th minute denying Matthew Wilson from close range.

But a minute before the break Seeley charged off his line to try and punch clear and didn’t get there in time to stop Wilson heading into the unguarded goal.

Early in the second half Skye grabbed a two-goal cushion.

Wilson’s long throw was headed on to the far post by Marcus Collier where Dogan Dagli had the simple task of heading in from point blank range.

The visitors would have clawed their way back into the contest if not for the agility of Crook who tipped over a stinging volley from Nicholas Corsini in the 87th minute.

Two minutes later Wilson’s fi rm header struck the underside of the bar and was cleared but a superb solo run by substitute Daniel Attard in the 92nd minute was rewarded when he squared the ball to fellow sub Chris-topher Busuttil for a tap-in.

Rosebud Heart infl icted a fi rst defeat of the league season on Old Mentonians on Saturday.

The 3-0 away win took Scott Morrison’s men to the top of State 5 South and threw the gauntlet down to neighbouring Baxter in second place.

Baxter had a bye after Parkmore dropped out of the competition and a

rescheduling of fi xtures took place.Heart opened its account against

Old Mentonians in spectacular style courtesy of a 25-metre screamer from the lethal left foot of Blake Hicks.

Goalscoring guru Dave Greening was brought down inside the area in the 42nd minute and converted the resultant penalty.

Greening headed against the bar shortly after then new signing Craig White was brought down for what looked like a second penalty before the interval but Heart’s appeals fell on deaf ears.

Englishman White could prove to be a clutch signing. The 24-year-old attacking midfi elder joined Heart last week from Essendon United and had a fi ne match.

James Liddle’s volley from the edge of the area in the 62nd minute was the fi nal nail in Old Mentonians’ coffi n but there were two send-offs in the second stanza, both straight reds – Heart’s Daniel Hodge in the 65th minute and Old Mentonians’ Dylan Taylor in the 89th minute.
