Braving the cold for cancer cure COMMUNITY group and cold-water swimming enthusiasts – the Aspendale Otters – are taking part in Cancer Council’s Daffodil Day Dip, committing to a cold-water swim every day throughout August to raise funds for life-saving cancer research. The group’s connection with Cancer Council was inspired by two close friends of the group, Anne and Ruth, who were both diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Anne passed away in late 2025, while Ruth continues her cancer journey. Their fundraising culminated on Saturday 15 August with a community event at Aspendale Beach, bringing together swimmers, supporters and fellow dipping groups from across the region. Daffodil Day Dip is Cancer Council’s nationwide cold-water challenge, encouraging Australians to brave the cold during August and fund breakthroughs in cancer research. It’s all part of its Daffodil Day campaign (which this year marks 40 years) and people can support by going to daffodilday.com.au SUSAN Kowalczyk, Loretta Ilott, Jenny and Chloe Freeman.

New councillor for Kingston, but investigation launched Melissa McCullough melissa@baysidenews.com.au KINGSTON has a new councillor after Nikki Kaur was declared the winner of the Melaleuca Ward byelection on Friday (14 August), with the Victorian Electoral Commission announcing an investigation into voting irregularities only hours later. The VEC election manager Rod
Van Cooten declared the result at 10am with winner Nikki Kaur immediately taking the oath of office. But by midday the VEC had announced it was referring matters concerning postal voting in the by-election to Victoria’s Local Government Inspectorate after irregularities were identified during routine election integrity checks. The VEC stated “Given the allegations of election interference, the VEC will also apply for an
inquiry into the validity of the election through the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal”. Electoral Commissioner Sven Bluemmel said the VEC takes any allegation of interference with a person’s vote seriously. “The integrity of Victoria’s elections is fundamental to public confidence in our democracy,” said Bluemmel. The VEC did not provide details of what specific matters would be
referred to the Local Government Inspectorate and VCAT. The results having been declared, Kingston mayor Cr Georgina Oxley congratulated Kaur on her election. “It is my pleasure to congratulate Nikki on her election and welcome her to Council,” said Oxley. “I look forward to working alongside Cr Kaur and my fellow councillors as we continue delivering the projects, services and advocacy that matter most to our community.”
Kaur said she was honoured to have been elected and thanked everyone in Melaleuca Ward for placing their trust in her. “I’m looking forward to getting out into the community, meeting residents and businesses, listening to what’s important to people and working alongside my fellow councillors to make a positive difference for Melaleuca Ward and the wider Kingston community,” she said.

New councillor plans to ‘make a positive difference’ Continued from Page 1 Kingston Council has been without a Melaleuca Ward councillor since March, when former councillor Tess Law resigned. Thirteen candidates had nominated for the by-election. With such a vast field, the contest was always going to come down to preferences. Glenn Dumbrell attracted the highest number of primary votes (1591; 18.84% of votes) with Kaur coming in second (1260; 14.92% of votes) and Louise Black only 14 votes further back (1246; 14.75% of votes). But after the distribution of preferences, Kaur pulled ahead of Dumbrell, winning by 225 votes, and 51.33% of the two-candidatepreferred votes. Oxley said council was deeply committed to upholding local democracy and will work closely with the VEC to ensure all correct procedures are followed, welcoming the VEC’s decision to refer matters of irregularity to the relevant agencies.

Terry from French Island gives helipad a trial WHEN lifelong French Island resident Terry failed to show up for work one morning, his friends and coworkers knew something was wrong. What followed was a medical emergency that saw Terry one of the very first patients to be airlifted to the new helipad at Peninsula University Hospital. Terry has a history of epilepsy but admits he had become complacent about taking his medication. “It was 100 per cent my fault. I hadn’t been taking my tablets like I should have been,” said Terry. When colleagues realised Terry had not arrived for work, they began calling to check on him. “One of the boys rang and said, ‘What’s going on?’ and I couldn’t tell him,” said Terry. “Then another friend rang and said, ‘Look, he doesn’t know what’s going on.’” Friends quickly came to help and raised the alarm. According to Terry, he suffered multiple seizures and has little memory of what happened next. “I remember nothing,” he said. Terry’s friend Michelle recalls the emergency crews responding quickly, with the air ambulance landing in a local paddock and swiftly transporting Terry from French Island to Peninsula University Hospital in Frankston. Terry has required medical evacuation from French Island before, but in the past when he has required
urgent medical treatment he was taken to The Alfred. The new helipad at Peninsula University Hospital has meant more local patients like Terry can receive urgent medical treatment, when they need it, closer to home. By the time Terry regained awareness, he had already spent several days receiving treatment. “I was out for four or five days apparently,” said Terry. He spent time in the Intensive Care Unit before transferring to a ward to continue his recovery. Doctors determined the episode was linked to Terry not taking his prescribed epilepsy medication and adjusted his treatment plan before he was discharged home. “They put me on a different type of medication and I’ve had no incidents since,” he said. Now back at home and feeling well, Terry says the experience reinforced the importance of looking after himself. “I’ve learned from the experience,” he said. “Now I know I’ve got to take my medication every day, every morning and every night.” Throughout his hospital stay, Terry was impressed by the care and compassion shown by staff. “It was fantastic. I couldn’t complain about anything,” said Terry. “There were nurses around me the whole time caring for me. It was ridiculous how well I got treated.”

Jodie Haydon guest of honour at Louisa Dunkley Network forum ONE hundred women from across the Dunkley community came together at Patterson River Golf Club on 8 August for a special Louisa Dunkley Network Women’s Health and Wellbeing Forum hosted by Dunkley MP Jodie Belyea. The special guest, Jodie Haydon, the PM’s wife, joined local women for an afternoon focused on connection, wellbeing and the practical ways women can support themselves and each other through challenging times. Held under the theme “Women Being Well”, the forum continued the legacy of the Louisa Dunkley Network, founded by the late Peta Murphy MP to bring women together, build connections and create a stronger, more supportive community for women across Dunkley. “Peta understood how important it was to create spaces where women could come together, connect and share their experiences,” said Belyea. “This forum was a wonderful opportunity to continue that legacy and bring women together to talk openly about what helps us stay well, particularly during challenging times. “It was fantastic to see 100 women in the room, representing so many different parts of our community. There is enormous strength in women creating spaces and supporting women, and that was exactly what we saw at this forum.” Women heard from a panel of local women with a range of lived experiences and backgrounds about the strategies, relationships and activities that help them maintain their wellbeing during tough times. The discussion explored what it means to stay well through difficult periods and the importance of finding practical ways to prioritise wellbeing while balancing the many demands of life. Jodie Haydon took part in a sit-down chat exploring her own approach to wellbeing, including how she manages the competing demands of her life as a full-time worker and being the wife of the Prime Minister and the strategies she uses to look after herself. Her conversation provided an opportunity for women to reflect on the importance of making time for their own wellbeing, even when life is busy. Juanita from Women’s Spirit Project sang and led an interactive session asking participants to consider what a thriving woman looks like and identify the things that contribute to their own wellbeing. Women were able to take home postcards capturing the wellbeing strategies they identified during the session as practical reminders of what helps them feel supported and well and lead going forward. The forum also created space for mindfulness and creativity, with Melissa King from the Miscarriage Information Support Service leading a sound bowl meditation. The event was MC’d by Kit McMahon from WHISE. The strength and diversity of the local women’s community was reflected in the organisations represented at the forum. The forum was delivered in partnership with the Women’s Spirit Project and Women’s Health in the South East, and welcomed special guests including Jodie Haydon, Sonya Kilkenny and Frankston City mayor Cr Sue Baker.

Frankston steps up push for homeless support Cameron McCullough cameron@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON City Council is seeking greater support for the homeless population, as part of its advocacy push in the run up to the state election. The council is seeking $2.5m over five years to expand assertive outreach, sustain coordination, improve early engagement, and strengthen pathways into housing. Rough sleeping has risen substantially over the last few years with a lack of affordable housing across the municipality, and a complete lack of crisis accommodation. As of the end of July, there were 100 people known to be accessing local homelessness services. This included 56 people sleeping rough, 16 in respite accommodation, 11 in temporary accommodation and 17 in other forms of accommodation. Frankston currently has the third highest recorded rough sleeping population, behind the City of Melbourne, with 247 people, and Mornington Peninsula Shire, with 155 people. Frankston City launched “Frankston Zero” in 2021 with the ambitious goal of eliminating homelessness in the municipality by 2023 (Aim for no rough sleepers by 2023, The News 24/8/21). While that aim has not been met, the program has brought together a broad base of services to identify people sleeping rough, coordinate support, and connect people with pathways into safe and stable housing. The program claims to have supported 77 people into secure housing since its inception, and continued to respond to rising demand, increasing complexity and more dispersed rough sleeping across the municipality. The challenge for Frankston City is while the model is proven to work, limited funding is restricting the capacity to respond to rising demand, increasing complexity and more dispersed rough sleeping across the municipality.
Mayor of Frankston City Council, Sue Baker, told The News “Frankston City has a strong, collaborative homelessness response, but demand is continuing to outpace available resources”. “Greater support from the state government will help ensure vulnerable residents can access the right support, at the right time, and move towards long-term housing outcomes.” One of the homelessness support providers, Community Support Frankston, have expressed their backing for Frankston City Council’s campaign for state government funding, claiming resources are at “breaking point”. “The housing and cost-of-living issues we are facing in Frankston require urgent government attention,” said Janet McCahon, vice-chairperson of Community Support Frankston. “Assertive homelessness outreach in Frankston is at breaking point. Without adequate support, and with emergency relief funding at record-low levels, we simply can’t continue to do more with less.” McCahon said she did not begrudge the recent $2.1m commitment over two years to homelessness outreach services on the Mornington Peninsula but questioned why Frankston was not receiving the same level of attention given the scale of its homelessness problem. “It’s visible, it’s tangible. It’s not just a data set — it’s here,” said McCahon. “I think part of it is because the peninsula is seen as a tourist hotspot and has a reputation for being wealthy. Homelessness there tends to shock people and attract attention. Whereas in Frankston, people just expect to see homelessness. “But it’s the same problem. The same suffering. We’re all in it together.” Community Support Frankston offer a range of services to those doing it tough in Frankston City. In 2025-26, more than 3,051 people and their families sought and received emergency relief from the organisation on 22,697 separate occasions.

Bird flu detected on the peninsula Cameron McCullough cameron@baysidenews.com.au BIRD flu was detected on the Mornington Peninsula and Phillip Island for the first time last Wednesday (12 August), raising concerns about bird colonies on the peninsula, Western Port Bay, and the highly suspectable little penguins at Phillip Island. The News believes the peninsula detection was at St Andrews Beach, and the Phillip Island detection was at Seal Rocks. By Saturday (15 August), the news had become worse, with a positive detection in the little penguin colony at Phillip Island, and a second detection on the peninsula; this time in a crested tern at Dromana. The arrival of the H5N1 bird flu on the peninsula came a day after the federal government announced vaccines would be made available for the colony of little penguins at Phillip Island. More than 5,000 penguins at Phillip Island and St Kilda expected to be vaccinated as part of the program. The doses of vaccine have now arrived at Phillip Island and are ready to be administered this week. Effectively vaccinating wild birds is challenging because each bird needs to be caught twice to receive two doses. There are now grave concerns for Western Port Bay’s wetlands that are a critical habitat for wildlife, and home to 65% of threatened bird species in Victoria.

Shannon Hurley, Nature Conservation Campaigner from Victorian National Parks Association told The News “As well protecting penguins with the vaccines, we really need to be investing in the resilience of all the bird and mammal species”.
“We need an overarching plan for how Western Port respond to crises like these that will give this wildlife the best possible chance to survive.” The latest information from the Australian government assesses almost 20% of Australia’s more than

2000 bird and mammal species are at high to extreme risk from the virus. Mornington Peninsula Shire Councillor David Gill said the arrival of bird flu on the peninsula was “a calamity”. “While all the attention is on the
Phillip Island penguins, we have to think of all the birds and marine animals it can affect,” said Gill. “This could decimate not only bird colonies, but seals, dolphins and even whales. It has the potential to cause extreme economic and environmental effects. It is unbelievably bad news.” Western Port Biosphere’s CEO, Mel Barker, said the best defence for our bird and mammal populations is public vigilance. “We have not been able to prevent the arrival of bird flu on the Mornington Peninsula and around Western Port but staying alert and reporting sick or dead birds or marine mammals can help limit its impact,” said Barker. “The implications for our region are not only the potential devastation of wildlife populations, but also economic.” If you find a sick or dead bird that you suspect could have H5 bird flu remember to: n Avoid contact with sick or dead wildlife and their environment. Do not touch, move or approach the bird, and do not allow pets to touch or eat sick or dead wildlife. n Record what you see, the location the animal was found, and take photos or video (if possible) without approaching the bird. n Report any unusual illness or death in wild birds and other wildlife immediately via the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline on 1800 675 888.
WHAT’S NEW...
A Hidden Crisis By Ann-Marie Hermans* WE are forgetting a painful, hidden consequence of the cost-of-living crisis – the impact on teenage girls. Recently, I was incredibly moved by a group of young female students in my local area, who spoke to me about period poverty. I promised them that I would raise their voices. In Australia, 64 per cent of women have found it difficult to buy period products, and nearly 30 per cent have purposely rationed products to cut costs. But with the current cost-of-living crisis hitting Victorian families hard, the reality for teenage girls is worse. Parents are facing soaring mortgages and bills, leaving many financially stretched, exhausted and time poor. This means that they are often not emotionally or physically available to have the conversations or provide the support their daughters need. Teenage girls are going without essential education about period symptoms, what’s normal and what isn’t, the support available to help manage pain and when to go see a doctor. At school, some girls don’t have even have the option of getting help in their first-aid room, because only two-thirds of Victorian government schools have access to a school nurse. The students also explained that teachers are not permitted to give them any medication. The result? Teenage girls sharing and trading medications, creating a dangerous environment where teenagers are taking unknown dosages or mixing medications without medical oversight. The students kept reminding me that females make up 50 per cent of our population. Period poverty directly impacts biological women and girls, and it deserves urgent attention. It is time this Carroll-Labor government starts giving the women of Victoria the resources, health support and dignity that we deserve.

TREASURE & DIRT ABC TV, 8.20pm
An isolated setting, a gruesome murder and a town whose entire population could be suspects – this six-part series shares its key ingredients with any number of recent outback-noir thrillers. But nothing is what it seems in Nulla, and the same is true of this strikingly cinematic, Twin Peaks-esque drama, which seems devised to make its viewers almost as uncomfortable as its characters. This firstseason finale begins with a sudden death, a secret tunnel and suspicions galore. But detectives Lucic (Michael Dorman) and Nell (Liv Hewson, above right with Dorman) don’t have long to join the dots – he has been summoned to the Iron Ring to pay his debts, while she must confront Jonas’ killer.
A viral moment at the 2024 AACTA Awards saw The Cheap Seats co-host Tim McDonald struggle to open an envelope, and it’s been a running joke for his colleagues Melanie Bracewell and Mel Tracina ever since. From tearing lolly packets to unfolding letters or extending an umbrella, no task is too small for the comedian to fumble. But how will he go when tasked with unlocking one of Deal or No Deal’s iconic gold briefcases? Tune in to find out as McDonald and Bracewell (above right with host Grant Denyer) team up to take on TV’s ultimate game of chance, hoping to win up to $200,000 on behalf of Learning for Life Autism Centre, and make Denyer giggle along the way.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Locals upset as footy admission fee rises Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE raising of the admission fee from 1/- to 1/6 for Peninsula Football Association semi-finals and finals has caused a chorus of dissent from supporters of the peninsula clubs. Reforms are always unpopular. It is not long since the charge was raised from 6d. to 1/-, and there was a great outcry then. The fact that other country centres have raised the price to 1/6 for the important semi-finals and finals was advanced as a reason why the Peninsula Football Association should do the same. Expressions of opinion from officials of the association, including the president and secretary, were decidedly against any increase. Messrs. McArthur and Jopling also spoke strongly against it, the latter contending that clubs who were represented by few supporters and not much interested in the concluding matches through not having a team playing should not dictate what price should be charged, especially an increased one. Mr. McArthur’s argument was that the public carried the game and should not be over taxed. On the other hand the increased cost of umpires and everything connected with the sport was claimed to warrant the increase. Perhaps the’ fact that this year’s semi finals and finals are expected to be extra good, was thought a reason for raising the gate charge. Football followers maintain that an error has been made and the gate receipts (and incidentally the clubs by getting a
smaller dividend) will suffer. Probably they will. The experiment was tried in the metropolis once but Failed. Country people have fewer attractions, but that is no reason why they should be exploited. As Mr Tom Hutchins (secretary of the association) said: “We are not out to make a lot of money out of football. As long as we pay our way and give the public its sport at a fair price it should do”. However, the delegates decided by a majority to make it 1/6 and it remains to be seen how it will result. *** Cerberus Cadet Corps The officer in charge of Flinders Naval Depot (Captain H. J. Feakes) recently discussed with parents of boys in the neighbourhood of the depot at Westernport a proposal to establish a boys’ cadet corps. A beginning has been made with the enrollment of the boys. It is expected that the number at first will be about 30. The organisation will be known as the Cerberus Cadet Corps, and the depot is officially designated H.M.A.S. Cerberus. The boys who will wear uniform, will pay an enrollment fee and a small sum regularly. The corps will be under the guidance of a chief petty officer, who has carried out similar work in England. The equipment of the fine naval gymnasium will be at the disposal of the boys at stated times, they will be taught to swim, and they will, in due course, be matched in various con-
tests with boy scouts and other boys’ organisations at convenient distances from the depot. They will also be given the use of small field-gun. *** Shire Elections – Seaford Riding Contest The only contest in the Shire this year is in the Seaford Riding, where Mr. W. H. Latham seeks to displace the retiring member, Cr. R. F. Miles. The election takes place on Thursday next, the polling booth being at the Seaford church hall. Cr. W. Armstrong is the returning officer, and the poll will be open from 8 a.m. till 7p.m. *** Brevities The monthly meeting of the Mt. Eliza Progress Association was held in the local hall on Wednesday last. The Frankston Gun Club held a successful shoot on Saturday afternoon last. Work on the running track which is being made on the foreshore, is proceeding rapidly. There was a good attendance of members at the meeting of the Frankston Progress Association held in the Palais on Monday night last. The ladies’ committee of the Frankston Football Club are working hard to ensure success at their annual ball, which takes place on Thursday next, August 26, in the Palais. A bridge party was held in the Soldiers’ Hall last Tuesday night. Arrangements were in the hands of Mrs. Maxwell. A dance will be held in the Baxter

Hall to-morrow night (Saturday). Next Tuesday night the Tyabb cricket club have arranged for a social to be held in the local hall to celebrate the premiership. A concert and dance will be held in Armstrong’s hall, Seaford, on Saturday, August 28, the funds are in aid of the Seaford hall building fund. The whole of the contents of a six roomed house, known as “Lumeah”, Melbourne road, will be sold tomorrow (Saturday), August 21, under the hammer of Mr. W. P. Mason. *** Somerville A branch of the National Bank has been opened at Somerville, where temporary premises are being occupied, but a permanent building is to be erected almost immediately. The manager is Mr. Lamont, with Mr. Scarfe, late of the Frankston branch, as teller, and Mr. Parkes ledger keeper. It has been the rule in the past for Mr. Holman, manager of the Frankston branch, to visit Somerville, Hastings, and other parts of the Peninsula on certain days of the week. This will not now be necessary, as all business from these parts will be transacted from the Somerville branch. *** School attendance record Beatrice Lewis, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis, of Dandenong road, Frankston, has established a record for regular attendance at school.

THE Bulldogs put pressure on Warragul all day. Picture: Graeme Wagener
Bulldogs too good for the Dusties MPFNL
By Kennedy McCullough
WOMEN’S DIV ONE SEN MORNINGTON seniors women’s team have secured their second premiership in two years, going back-to-back against their nemesis, Warragul Industrials. Despite winning the flag last year, Mornington were facing a team that hadn’t lost a match all season, but a team they knew well having met them the last two years in the grand final. But Warragul’s 2026 season had been sublime. Their flawless record was in contrast with Mornington who had a record of 12 wins and four losses. Warragul won the toss and elected to kick towards the Young Street end of Kinetic Stadium, which would leave them kicking into the lowering sun in the final term. The Nepean Highway end, though, proved to be the scoring end, and Mornington were quickly out of the blocks in the first quarter. Tenae Browne was the first to strike for Mornington, kicking a goal in less than three minutes. This was backed up by another goal by Browne with 4.30 left on the clock. The Bulldog girls had six through the sticks
in the first term, going into the first break at 2.4 (16) to the Dusties’ 0.2 (2). The game continued in the second quarter, much like the first, see-sawing through the midfield, with the ball occasionally finding its way to a forward 50. Mornington managed a couple of points, but not another major until eight minutes before the end of the term when Browne again put one through the big sticks. Warragul were now facing a 21-point deficit and hadn’t managed to kick a single goal. That changed with 4.30 to go in the term when the Dusties’ kicked their first and the Warragul supporters in the crowd let it be known that the Dusties were there to play. With no other scores after the Warragul goal, the teams went into the long break at 3.5 (23) for Mornington and 1.3 (9) for Warragul; a lead of 14 points in the Bulldogs’ favour. The war of attrition continued in the third term, with both teams showing strength in their midfields, and solid defence when the ball strayed in the to 50. The Bulldogs managed a point at the fiveand-a-half-minute mark, and then a goal at the seven-minute mark to pull away to a 21-point lead. Warragul had a prime opportunity with less
than ten minutes remaining on the clock only to put the ball into the post for a minor score. That miss was their only score for the quarter, and they went into three-quarter time 20 points down, and kicking into the sun for the final term. But the Dusties came out firing in the final quarter. Only 90 seconds had ticked down when they scored their first goal for the quarter; only their second for the day. Only a couple of minutes later, they slotted their second, and we had a match on our hands. There were still sixteen minutes on the clock, the Industrials were on a roll, and the margin had been trimmed to only eight points. Mornington needed to steady. The game continued to see-saw in the midfield. Mornington managed to get within scoring range before a Warragul free kick allowed them to clear. With 11 minutes to go, Stella Rogers kicked a goal for Mornington, giving the Bulldogs a bit of breathing space stretching their lead out to 14-points. Another attempt on goal for Mornington, with 8.40 to go, fell short and Warragul managed to clear it from danger. Warragul weren’t finished yet and continued to show the pressure that had secured them top spot on the ladder for 2026.
With just under five minutes to go, they managed a point to bring the margin back to 13-points, and thirty seconds later kicked a goal to bring the margin back to seven. So after kicking seven points in 30 seconds, the Dusties needed seven more in a bit over four minutes to pull level with Mornington. Both sides dug deep, with Warragul desperately trying to attack, and Mornington holding them out. In the end, the final siren sounded without another score, and Mornington clinched the win by seven points. While it may have been a quiet trip back to Warragul, the Dusties should be proud of their near-flawless season, and they will no doubt be contenders for the flag again in 2027. For Mornington, the strength of women’s senior teams is not an overnight achievement, and the club has put in the hard yards developing girls football up through the age groups through their affiliation with Mornington Junior Football Club. The investment shows, with some of the Under 18 girls playing for the seniors and reserves women this year, and a strong pipeline of talent coming up through the ranks of both the junior and senior clubs. Mornington now have the opportunity next year to play for a third seniors flag in a row.

By Kennedy McCullough

The Scoreboard
FV boots out Western United SOCCER By Craig MacKenzie FOOTBALL Victoria dumped Western United from all FV competitions last week effective immediately. The move followed the Federal Court’s decision to order WMG Football Club Limited to be wound up in insolvency. WMG held the franchise for Western United’s A-League participation and was the entity through which it competed in FV competitions. The decision has important consequences for local clubs especially through its impact on promotion and relegation in VPL1 the league in which Langwarrin competes. There will be a flow-on effect of Western United’s demise throughout the State Leagues where most local clubs compete. In a statement released by FV late last week it claimed to have exhausted all avenues through which it could allow Western United to fulfil its remaining 2026 fixtures. “FV has explored every available option to identify a pathway that would enable WUFC’s teams to complete the 2026 season,” the statement said. “Unfortunately, following the Court’s decision and after thoroughly reviewing the requirements of the FV Constitution, Club Compliance Bylaw and Club Insolvency Policy, there is no longer a viable pathway for WUFC to continue participating in FV competitions.” In VPL1 (the league in which Western’s FV team competed) the highest ranked relegated club will remain in the league. Three clubs were due to be relegated but now just two will face the drop into VPL2. Langwarrin is third last and the change to relegation rules gives it some respite but head coach Jamie Skelly recognised the task still facing his team. “At the moment we are three points clear of North Sunshine and four clear of Port Melbourne,” he said. “They both play on Saturday before our game against Melbourne Knights on Sunday so we will know leading into our last two games what we need to do to survive. There is no change to promotion from State 1 so Mornington’s best hope is to cling onto second spot and face a play-off against the runner-up in North-West 1 for a place in next year’s VPL2 competition. Currently State 1 South-East and
State 4 South-East only have 11 teams each and FV has set out the promotion rules throughout the remaining State Leagues with current relegation rules still in place (two down). The changes to promotion see the top three teams in State 2 to State 4 being promoted while in State 5 to State 7 the top three will be promoted with the fourth team facing a promotion play-off with its North-West counterpart. In State 1 last week Mornington maintained its grip on second with a comfortable 4-0 home win over Old Scotch on Saturday while Skye United all but sealed relegation when hammered 7-0 away to Collingwood City on Friday night. Mornington turned in a dominant display and its task was aided by the red card shown to Old Scotch’s Stace Valiakas in the 36th minute. Seven minutes later Shaun Kenny unleashed a thunderous drive from outside the area that Old Scotch keeper Matty Lionakis had no hope of saving. James Kelly doubled the lead in the 55th minute with a header and in the 66th minute Campbell Steedman hit the post but Callum Goulding reacted quicky to smash home the rebound to make it 3-0. The contest was well and truly out of the visitors’ reach and Lachie Candy’s good finish following an excellent passage of play through midfield was
the final nail in the coffin. In State 2 Peninsula Strikers drew 0-0 with Chisholm United at Centenary Park on Saturday. In State 4 Baxter’s relegation battle with Monash University ended in a 0-0 away draw on Saturday while Rosebud lost Saturday night’s home match 2-0 to Riversdale. The Budders deserved something out of this game as they turned in one of their better performances of the season hitting the bar and post and missing several chances. In State 5 Somerville Eagles enjoyed a 4-2 home win over Mount Waverley City last weekend while Seaford United had a gritty 1-0 away win over Templestowe Wolves. Somerville struck just before the interval with a deflected Max Watson strike. Goals from Mount Waverley’s Taiga Britt and Tommy Kourambas in the 56th and 69th minutes put the visitors 2-1 up but Joe Hitchcoach equalised in the 73rd minute with a shot into the top corner from outside the box. Somerville regained the lead in the 80th minute through a Trey Dekker shot and Tom Simmons’ strike in the 89th minute settled the issue and maintained his claim for league top scorer honours. Mount Waverley’s Chris Altidis was sent off in the 92nd minute. In a game of few chances Seaford
had the better of the first half against Templestowe with Dylan Waugh hitting the bar and later missing the chance to lob the Templestowe keeper. The decisive moment came early in the second half when Waugh’s perfectly weighted ball found Jayden Lebron on the left of the box and he converted with a low strike. Seaford then withstood the expected Templestowe onslaught all but ending the home side’s title aspirations. In State 6 Mount Eliza had to wait until the 80th minute to make its mark against already relegated Mentone last weekend with a 1-0 away win. The pivotal move started with a Jacob Biggs’ throw-in to Josh Luca who sent substitute Biggs down the left wing and his cross was slotted home by Troy Buchanan-Ferguson. Despite a fine first-half performance Frankston Pines failed to capitalise on four good chances and found itself 1-0 down at half-time after being caught on the break. Pines conceded two more goals after the interval when chasing the game. In State 7 the shock result of the round was Mount Martha’s 2-1 away win over Cleeland United. It was just the third time this year that Mount Martha was able to sing the club song at game’s end. Under head coach Gary Talbot the under-18s have been training with the
senior squad and teenagers Mitch Batten and Mitch Brown made their senior debuts on Saturday. Cleeland led 1-0 at half-time but when Batten was brought down in the box captain Adam Steele stepped up and converted the resultant penalty. In the 75th minute Batten made his mark when the debutant lobbed the Cleeland keeper for the winner. Aspendale’s fate is in its own hands and Jason Grieve’s men sit third with a genuine chance of promotion. Friday night’s 4-1 away win over Lilydale Montrose United gives it a three-point buffer over fourth-placed Keysborough District with a nine-goal superior goal difference. Mitch Hodder’s penalty put Aspendale 1-0 up on Friday and in the 12th minute Nathan Padinis headed home from an inswinging Tom Machin corner. Jacob Perez pulled one back in the 30th minute but right on half-time the visitors’ two-goal cushion was restored when Ryan Mravljak’s shot was deflected off Felipe Cabeza for an own goal. When Mravljak was brought down inside the area in the 60th minute Hodder made no mistake with his second penalty of the night.
