$1.1M to help improve local Indigenous outcomes By David Lee RUMBALARA Aboriginal Co-operative will start to roll out two new programs aimed at children and schooling, and safety and wellbeing, of the community from next year, after it was confirmed they would receive two separate streams of funding totalling $1.01M, as part of the Australian Government’s Indigenous Advancement Strategy (IAS) grants. The two projects are aimed at improving outcomes for Indigenous Australians in the Goulburn Valley, by offering a holistic service from Rumbalara’s Mooroopna facility. The Family Services Parenting program, which has been awarded $650,000 as part of the IAS, will provide practical parenting advice and support to Indigenous parents on a voluntary basis to help increase school attendance, improve educational outcomes and year 12 attainment and to improve youth transition to further education and work. The Bringing Them Home Grief and Trauma Counselling program will assist individuals and families experiencing stress. The project will deal directly with personal difficulties associated with depression and the effects of forcible removal that continue to impact on the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Rumbalara Aboriginal Co-operative CEO, Kemal ‘Kim’ Sedick said, “The Family Services Parenting program is about helping to build resilience in youths and give them the ability to thrive under challenging condition. “We’re going to support parents to help their kids with education and provide them

with the tools to help build a better future for young people. “It is also about improving intergenerational educational outcomes by improving both the parent and child’s education. This will help to build better relationships across the community all while supporting individuals and families in the community. “We will also be providing them with nutrition and food to ensure they have a healthy day and all of this will be run on-site at Rumbalara. “The Bringing Them Home Grief and Trauma Counselling program is about

ensuring Indigenous Australia’s physical, social and emotional wellbeing. “It’s intended to assist in the process of healing for those who have experienced past removal trauma and other relating issues, in particular with the Stolen Generation. “We’ve built an integrated, coordinated and comprehensive service at Rumbalara and these programs are about continuing and improving that service. “These programs are an empowering system designed to help people on the road to recovery and to help them achieve quality of life.”

A helping hand for Shepparton’s youngest new residents K I L D O N A N U n it i n g C a r e a n d S ave the Children Australia have joined forces to run a program aimed at helping young students from newly arriving families with basic numeracy and literacy activities, and volunteers are currently being sought to give primary and secondary school children a helping hand with their reading and schoolwork. The program will run in conjunction with Kildonan’s current homework program for teenagers, which is carried out once a week at both Shepparton High School and the Shepparton English Language Centre. Save the Children Australia Program Team Leader, Maree Chin said the program would help give the children a sound start to their education. “Not only will the program improve the literacy and numeracy skills of the students, but it will help improve their self-esteem and increase their confidence and engagement

with learning,” Ms Chin said. Kildonan UnitingCare Senior Manager New Arrival Support Services, Teresa Carney said the volunteer tutors are paramount to the success of the program. “ Volu nt e e r s do no t n e e d sp e c i f i c educational qualifications as training is provided and whilst experience in a primary or secondary school setting would be helpful, we really just need our volunteers to be supporting, patient, organised and reliable,” Ms Carney said. Volunteers must give permission for a National Police Record and Working with Children check. An information session for volunteers will be held in the coming weeks and interested volunteers will be contacted. For more information, email maree.chin@ savethechildren.org.au, phone 0408 713 938 or email tcarney@kildonan.org.au

Staff ‘flip burgers’ over CEO visit By David Lee LOCAL McDonalds restaurant staff were ‘flipping burgers’ last week when McDonalds Australia CEO, Andrew Gregory visited the region for the first time in his new role. Beginning his role with McDonalds as a crew person 20 years ago, Andrew worked his way through the ranks, taking up roles in finance, real estate operations and even lived in Japan working at McDonalds restaurants. Andrew said, “McDonalds is a big business and offers opportunities and challenges across various roles.

“We have 100,000 young people working in McDonalds across the country and we’re happy that we can play a role in building on their employability skills, punctuality, customer service, team work and responsibility, which they take to their next job. “I’m really happy to have had the chance to be in the region. Regular visits to McDonalds across the country give me the opportunity to learn what’s really happening in the business and to learn a lot about what customers are doing.”

ADVERTISING AWARD… The Adviser Studio Manager, Mathieu Ryan with the award for Best Print or Digital House Advertisement awarded at the 2014-2015 VCPA Advertising Awards last week. Photo: Madeleine Caccianiga.

With our features and circulation, you are sure to reach your target market 219-225 Wyndham Street, Shepparton. Phone 5832 8900

THE Adviser’s production team have shown that their creative flair has a winning combination, taking out the award for Best Print or Digital House Advertisement at the 2014-2015 VCPA Advertising Awards last week. The advertisement, which encourages businesses to advertise through a clever anecdote matched with imagery that complements the message, was well received by the judges. Judge, Mark Hollands commented on the advertisement saying, “The synchronicity between the key message – Kick Marketing Goals – and the imagery of the six-pointer at the football is excellent. The headline is powerful and clear, and the photography speaks of achievement. “The fact that the image is of a local football game also encourages local business to believe the advertisement is for them.

“There are a lot of very nice subtleties in this advertisement and, therefore, deserves a strong mark.” As well as being awarded for the Award for Best Print or Digital House Advertisement in a circulation over 7,000, The Adviser’s production team were highly commended for the ‘Our Kitchen – Taste of the Valleys’ feature under the Award for Best Advertising Feature. Judge, Rohan Gosstray said about the feature, “A very clever way of promoting the taste sensations of the region, by allowing the advertisements to carry most of the imagery and colour, character and content in such a way that the reader feels they’ve already indulged. “Graphically extremely well put together, with a strong continuity of fonts, graphics, colour and style. Even though it is just three pages, it’s very snappy, with plenty of wow factor to arrest the reader.”

that is that person’s expression of themselves. God is love; only God is neither masculine nor feminine, the same as gays, and gays were born that way so it is God’s will. Like nudity, it was God’s will for man to be that way. But of course, those with a bible under their arm believe God got all of this wrong and gays and nudity shouldn’t exist. It says in their bible, “judge not least ye be judged” and also to love your fellow man like yourself, and I don’t see this in the ‘moralists.’ Show me a man with a bible under his arm and I’ll show you a man with sex and judgement on his mind. Anybody who believes he is better than his fellow man, is a fool. We are all of God. Yours sincerely, I. Hay Kyabram

FUNDING RUNNING OUT FOR AT RISK STUDENTS Dear Editor, So Daniel Andrews’ idea of making

education a priority is to create new number plates so he can drive his spin home. But while the Premier contemplates his shiny new number plates, thousands of vulnerable school kids are being left in limbo. Funding for the successful School Focused Youth Service Program runs out in December and local groups are asking why Daniel Andrews won’t renew the funding. This program helps to keep at risk kids at school to help them to a better life. It seems the Premier is not willing to act. Things are getting so desperate that even mayors who are past and present Labor candidates have come to the Coalition seeking our help to convince a Labor Premier to take action. We want the best for our kids, especially those that need particular help. It’s time Daniel Andrews stopped focusing on reviews and number plates, and engaged drive with a decision to commit funding for children who need it most. Yours sincerely, Nick Wakeling MP Shadow Minister for Education

THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA… Many attempts have been made over the years to correct it, but without the lean it just would not be the same..

IT was an opportunity to visit some of the major cities in Europe and at the same time meet up with relatives in England. So, Linda and Peter Meates of Shepparton set off on their overseas adventure their first stop was London and what a city.

First time in Europe

WONDERFUL SCENIC VIEWS… Sorrento in Italy provides access to the major tourist sights.

The elections were in full swing and it was Victory in Europe Day and people were celebrating to the max. Linda and Pete found the easiest way to get around was on the double decker ‘hop-on-hop-off’ bus. They saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, The Bridge, yes all the major sights, and over the following couple of days just soaked up the atmosphere that such a city generates. They had relatives in Devon, so hiring a car they made their way there. The ‘relies’ live in the small village of Sidmouth by the sea. It was a great place to be and their cousins took time to show them around. At a family reunion that night they visited a local pub and in true English style enjoyed fish and chips and sang along with the local band. The next day, Linda and Pete were taken to a donkey farm. The farm had been set up by a local woman and as word spread of her aim to provide a home to ill or abandoned donkeys, donations and donkeys rolled in. Today, the farm looks after thousands of donkeys and has become quite a tourist attraction in its own right. Moving on, Linda and Pete then took the ferry to Ireland for six days. They hired a car and toured the countryside. The scenery was wonderful, everything was so green and Linda loved the Ring of Kerry but did find it difficult driving the narrow Irish roads. If another vehicle came towards you, you had to get off the road to pass. They had two days in Galway. Linda says it’s such a beautiful village and the atmosphere was great with music and entertainment at the local pub. Then onto Dublin for two nights. It’s a big city with lots to see and do and the history of the region tells the Irish story; Dublin is home to the National Irish Museum. It was now time to return to England where they met up with Pete’s cousin and his wife Rob and Sue and then headed to Scotland. In Edinburgh, they toured the castle and saw the changing of the guard, and then visited Oban, Fort William and took a ride on the steam train that was used in the Harry Potter movies. Returning to Edinburgh, they had more time to explore the city before catching a flight to Paris and wow what a city. Linda and Pete loved the little cafés; yes Paris had a real feel to it. They toured the major sites including the Champs Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, the Eiffel Tower and its wonderful views over the city and the famous Louvre Museum. Notre Dame was really spectacular, yes Paris had it all.

Next they headed to Geneva and on the way they stopped off at Beaune a lovely village, a medieval town. They took part in a walking tour and found a gallery with the Andy Warhol painting of Campbell’s Soups. They now arrived at Geneva. It’s a very scenic city with its dramatic alpine backdrop and is home to the United Nations building. Next it was onto Cannes with its beautiful beaches and millionaires’ yachts in the bay. This part of France, located on the Mediterranean, draws visitors from around the world, particularly for the annual Cannes Film Festival. Leaving Cannes they travelled onto Nice, known as the Jewel of the French Riviera. They walked to the beach; no sand just small pebbles which were not very comfortable to sit on but you can hire a sun lounge. Both locals and tourist alike flock to the small cafés along the shore where they sit outside and watch the passing parade hoping to see the rich and famous. Finally Monaco; home to a major grand prix circuit and set on a picturesque coastline with its famous casino. At the Royal Palace they saw the changing of the guard, this was the third time having seen the same thing in London and Edinburgh. Italy was next. From Pisa and its leaning tower to Florence and its leather shops and galleries. This was the birthplace of the Renaissance and they did a walking tour that took them to Piazza della Signoria and the Ponte Vecchio, a galleried bridge dating back to the middle ages. Then a drive across the Veneto plain onto Venice with its rich maritime history They cruised by private launch to St Mark’s Square and the Bridge of Sighs, and saw the Dogès Palace. They also had time to watch the glass blowers in action and had a romantic gondola ride on the canals and they were even serenaded. Now they crossed the picturesque Apennine mountains, crossed the vibrant landscape of Tuscany and arrived in Rome, the Eternal City. They loved the Colosseum and its underground vaults where the animals were kept and of course the Vatican City and the fantastic Sistine Chapel where Michelangelo spent 11 years creating those special scenes. Finally Linda and Pete took the train to the Amalfi Coast for three nights. A chance for some ‘R&R’ but there was still so much to see. Pompeii was fantastic. Now restored, it showed the Roman lifestyle of the time right down to the local brothel. Both Linda and Pete just loved the history

not just in Pompeii, but in all they had seen right across Europe. Yes, one day they would have to go back, but maybe next time Greece could be an option. Linda and Pete wanted to thank Hannah Birrell at Flight Centre in Shepparton who had done such a great job in bringing their holiday together. Until next time, Safe Travel’n, Geoff Vallance

Chamber helps to reinvent

Winter City Market HAVING been involved with the Winter City Market for many years, the Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry are looking forward to this year’s event, which is themed around entertainment for children. As well as being able to grab a bargain or two, the CBD and surrounds will come alive for two big days this Friday and Saturday, with chamber hoping to see more small businesses get on board in coming years. Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry Board Member and local business owner, Carl Hainsworth said, “As a business person for over 40 years, you do get sick of hearing the typical and plain ‘get a bargain at the Winter City Market,’ and so we wanted to reinvent it. “It’s more than grabbing a bargain, it’s an event and this year it’s about children. Next year, we are looking at something bigger. “There will be plenty of entertainment in the CBD as well as spilling out into High Street, Corio Street, Fryers Street. “We are also looking for other small businesses to get involved in helping to promote and extending the markets and we’d like to invite those small businesses to come along to our meetings and have a voice on topics such as the Summer and Winter City Markets and help them to grow.” For further information on Shepparton Chamber of Commerce and Industry, phone Lucy Cerrone on 0407 503 886.

Get Grill’d IN a first for Shepparton’s city markets, Melbourne’s famed Grill’d will be packing up and shipping their mobile bus, the Grill’d Airstream, to the city for the Winter City Market. While the community won’t have access to the full Grill’d menu, a special Airstream menu will be available including two beef burgers, a chicken burger and vegetarian burger as well as chips, but for the first time ever for the Airstream, the team will be making a version of the Mighty Melbourne, developed for the day, the Mighty Shepp. A Grill’d spokesperson said, “Currently it isn’t the right time for us to bring a permanent Grill’d to Shepparton, however given the interest that has been coming through we thought we’d give the people of Shepparton something back. “We are looking forward to coming up to Shepparton. There will be a big group of us coming and we are keen to capture the local’s interaction with the Airstream, so we will be filming the day. “The more people we see down at the Airstream will demonstrate what the locals could do for us. You never know, if it all goes well we might be back for the next market.”

$7.5M roundabout works still no relief for landowners WATER and sewer main relocation works as part of the project were originally set to begin last week, but after being postponed temporarily, VicRoads has confirmed that the works will still go ahead, anticipating completion of the works later this year. But the works do not include the drainage along the Midland Highway in front of businesses that have been affected by the issue in the past. A spokesperson from VicRoads said, “Works as part of the Doyles Road-Midland Highway Roundabout Project will be undertaken through Goulburn Valley Water and it is expected to significantly impact traffic through the intersection and adjacent roads. “Traffic management will include full road closures and detours for some stages of the work and partial road closures for other stages.

Speed restrictions will also be in place through the work site and road users will experience traffic delays. “VicRoads will keep the community informed of changes to traffic management and thanks the community for their patience while these works are carried out. VicRoads also asks motorists to be aware of workers and machinery at the site for their own safety and for the safety of staff.” One of the businesses affected by the flooding of the Doyles Road-Midland Highway roundabout area in 2013, Thompson Motor Group, was significantly impacted by the drainage issues, and is now looking at being forced to pay more than $200,000 to upgrade the drainage system even though the scheme that VicRoads and council are running with the roundabout works will impact part of his land. Thompson Motor Group Dealer Principal, Jarrod Thompson said, “Under the roundabout works drainage scheme, there will be an easement put right through my property, which will improve drainage on the southern side of the Midland Highway up to a point, but unfortunately they won’t allow us to pipe into that unless we pay an exuberant amount.

DOWN THE DRAIN… Despite a $7.5M Doyles Road-Midland Highway Roundabout Project being just on the horizon, Shepparton East landowners are expressing their concern that they are not being included in the upgrades to the area’s drainage. Photo: Madeleine Caccianiga.

“The new works will take place from the end of the service road out the front of Thompson Motors and go to the roundabout. I contacted council and suggested that we share the costs to cover the drainage area on the side of the road in front of my land and they didn’t even want to look into getting the costings done. I spoke with VicRoads about it and they showed interest in the idea. “We are pleased that VicRoads and council are working on the drainage at the roundabout

because it will definitely improve the drainage on the southern side.” Kon ig s S heppa r ton M a n ager, L eo Schoonderbeek said, “Concerned Shepparton East business owners have addressed the council of their lack of maintenance with the Shepparton East Drainage Scheme. “T he organisers of the roundabout upgrade have obviously neglected important information and overlooked design aspects which is why there is a delay.”

Volunteer for our veterans By David Lee VOLUNTEERS are currently being sought to give some time toward helping the region’s veterans and war widows, with the Goulburn Valley Veteran Services (GVVS) making an urgent plea to the community to lend a hand. As a not-for-profit organisation, the GV VS is completely volunteer run and relies on the community to help them to help local veterans in need of assistance and is currently looking for people to provide expressions of interest in roles including secretary/reception duties as well as pension officers and welfare officers. G V V S C h a i r p e r s o n , B r u c e D av i s said, “We act as the first contact point for locals who need support in filling out compensation claims as well as providing other support where we can including facilitating the installation of home care aids. “We currently have four volunteers but really need more to help assist with the services we provide. “We do offer training for pension officer and welfare officer roles at no cost. “We welcome anybody to put their hand up to help us help the community. “It’s a very rewarding experience and

knowing that you have made a difference to a veteran’s life and helped put a smile on their face makes it all worth while. “The reason I got into this role was because I was helped by a pension officer when I really needed assistance.

Get your dad the perfect gift this year IT can be hard to pick a gift for your dad, especially when he seems to ‘have it all,’ so we have put together the top four gift ideas for 2015 to give you a hand.

For the ‘techy’ dad

Is your dad into computers, iPhones and the latest gadgets? Accessories for his tech can be especially helpful. Perhaps you could get him a cover for his phone that has an extended battery life add-on, or a smart watch that interacts with his phone. If you’re a little money conscious, then a USB desktop light for his laptop or a wireless mouse might do the trick.

For the out and about dad

If your dad is an ‘outdoorsy’ kind of guy, then camping or fishing gear, or something for his 4x4 will more than likely please him. Does he need a new piece of ‘camo’ gear for hunting or a new reel for his rod? Think about what he might use when he’s out and about and if all else fails, speak to your local outdoor specialist store.

For the practical dad

If your dad isn’t into the latest gadgets and doesn’t like to get out and about in the great outdoors very often, then perhaps something more practical will do the trick. There is always the typical ‘greatest dad in the world’ mug, or maybe he needs some new oil for his car or the lawn mower, or he might just want you to take him out for a nice lunch.

For a dad who has everything

Has your dad really got everything?…then get him a gift card. Gift cards are the perfect gift for any occasion, but can be especially good on Father’s Day. Think about it, your dad can get exactly what he wants, whether it’s a new tool or new clothes, and know that it came from you.

Sunday, 6th September 2015 is

Make your dad’s day SUNDAY, September 6 is Father’s Day, and while you may have already picked your gift for your dad, you may not have given a thought on what to do with the day. Spending time with your dad can be the best gift you can give him, so we have listed some family fun activities to help you make your dad’s day.

Tee off with your dad FATHER’S DAY FUN… Bunnings Warehouse Shepparton Complex Manager, Paul Connaughton with his children, from left, Mackenzie, Zac, Lachlan and Jacob. Photo: Madeleine Caccianiga.

Dads to get crafty with kids for Father’s Day WITH Father’s Day on the approach, Bunnings Warehouse in Shepparton and Echuca are providing the perfect opportunity to make the perfect gift that dad will love, through their ‘Kids and Dads DIY Workshops.’ On Saturday, August 29 and Sunday, August 30, and Saturday September 5 and Sunday, September 6 local ‘kids’ can say a special thanks to their dad by joining the hands-on DIY gift making workshops and getting crafty to make dad a gift he will cherish – anything from a key holder, a pen pot or even a key ring. Bunnings Warehouse Shepparton Complex Manager, Paul Connaughton said every year

‘kids’ love to get involved and make something for their dad and these workshops have become somewhat of a tradition at Bunnings Warehouse. “DIY projects are fun for kids of all ages and it also gives them a chance to make a really special hand-made gift that dad will remember, and the pride they feel when they finish something themselves is great to see!” For more information and times, contact Bunnings Warehouse Echuca, 131 Ogilvie Avenue, on 5482 0200 or Bunnings Warehouse Shepparton, 225 Benalla Road, on 5820 2200.

IT doesn’t matter whether your dad is a pro on the golf course or just enjoys a little putt, an afternoon of golf is fun for both you and your dad. Mini golf can also be just as fun, or if you want to learn about the real game, you could head to a driving range and let dad teach you a thing or two about how to play.

Strike out with the perfect activity

IF it turns out that an outdoor activity isn’t on the cards due to bad weather, head to a bowling alley and line up the pins with your dad. Bowling is a great way to be competitive and have fun all at the same time and will have your dad smiling in no time.

Pedal power

CRUISING around on two wheels is a great way for you and dad to get out of the house and get some fresh air. Maybe go somewhere you have never been to make it a little more interesting and pack a lunch for a picnic.

Catch a good ‘flick’

A SIMPLE way to make dad’s day is to curl up on the couch with him and watch a good movie together. Get a comedy and laugh together or an action ‘flick’ that leaves you both saying ‘wow.’ Make it all the more special by ordering or making dad’s favourite pizza.

Cast out a line

HEADING down to the river or lake and casting a line is a classic and relaxing way to spend dad’s special day, and who knows… dad might catch a fish ‘this big.’

Get sporty

ONE thing that almost all dads love is sport, so get out the footy or cricket gear and head out to the backyard or your nearest oval and see who can kick the most goals or hit the first six.

Get constructive

DOES you dad like to spend his free time in the garage or workshop? Suggest that you try to build something together like a bird house or possum box, or find something else child-friendly to build together.

Goulburn Valley Libraries launch new brand

NEW IDENTITY REPRESENTS DIVERSE COMMUNITY… Goulburn Valley Libraries now have a new look that is reflective of the new direction that libraries across the country are headed in. Goulburn Valley Libraries CEO, Kevin Preece, says the new branding indicates what our libraries are about. Photo: Alicia Niglia.

GOULBURN Valley Libraries are proud to announce the launch of their new logo and branding; the contemporary new design is a reflection of the new direction that libraries across the country are headed in, and aims to meet the needs of our communities. Libraries around the world are changing and here in the Goulburn Valley, we’re no exception. People are no longer looking to just borrow books; today our Libraries are places for people to come to connect, share, learn, create and of course borrow a book and read. Library members can now download eBooks, eAudio Books, eMagazines, learn a language, gain computer skills online, research their ancestry and much more, all for free of charge. CEO of Goulburn Valley Libraries, Mr Kevin Preece said, “We realised that our old branding, did not reflect what our libraries

have now become, or where they are going in the future. “Our new brand indicates what our libraries are about; firstly people, and secondly a place to go to source information. “Our new logo represents the diversity of the communities we serve and the libraries as a place where we come together, the stylised vertical figures also represent books on a shelf, and the bright, varied colours add a contemporary feel. “We also took the opportunity whilst re-branding, to shorten our name to Goulburn Valley Libraries as opposed to the previous, more formal Goulburn Valley Regional Library Corporation. The rebranding aims to increase awareness of the organisation’s ten libraries (and the mobile library service), that span across the shires of Greater Shepparton, Moira and Strathbogie.

Bushrangers take 79 point slashing THE Murray Bushrangers have suffered a significant loss to Eastern Ranges in Round 17 of the TAC Cup competition, suffering a 49 point slashing at the final siren. The Bushrangers’ started the match in perfect fashion when Lachlan Tiziani kicked the opening goal from a long shot on the run. However, Eastern’ were able to kick two goals and after a Josh Schache goal for the Bushrangers,’ they once again hit the front with accuracy in front of goal. The Bushrangers’ had patches of their best football of the season and after another Schache goal, Harrison Payne kicked a running goal to put the Bushrangers’ team out to a nine point lead. But such was Eastern Range’s run and spread, they got to a one point deficit at quarter time. The second term saw the Bushrangers’ quick out of the block with goals to Ethan Boxall and another to Tiziani and a Bushrangers’ lead of 13 points. The midfield of Clayton Oliver and Murray Waite were exceptional at extracting the ball from congestion. However, the game trend continued and after eleven minutes of play, the Eastern’ team levelled the scores; then took the lead by a goal. Defender, David Mennen was great in his defensive rebounding and Dylan McDonald provided plenty of run throughout the game in

transition. Debutant Bushranger,’ Max Lynch from Albury took a great contested mark and quick thinking handballed to Marshall who found Schache who kicked his third goal and level scores again. The Bushrangers’ took a three point lead into half time. The third term was the Bushrangers’ for the first 20 minutes and after multiple behinds, Josh Schache kicked his fourth goal with great accuracy from a set shot. Great transition from defence to attack saw the ball go through the hands of Nick Coughlan, Isaac Wallace and Clayton Oliver and finally to James Cousins who kicked a beautiful goal and the Bushrangers’ led by 24 points at the 20 minute mark. This was where momentum changed and the Eastern Ranges dominated from this point for the remainder of the game. In the final 32 minutes of the game, the Bushrangers’ kicked one goal and one behind, while Eastern’ kicked 10 goals and eight behinds to eventually run out 49 point winners at the final siren. With one game remaining in the home and away TAC Cup season, the Bushrangers’ travel away to take on the Bendigo Pioneers with a win needed to guarantee third place on the ladder and a double chance in the upcoming finals.

Coulstock’s

100th game a celebration KYABRAM Bombers Player, Nick Coulstock saw celebrations ring out for his 100th game at the weekend against Tatura Bulldogs, with the Bombers smashing the Bulldogs 155 to 49. 100 games ago he made his debut against Mansfield as a skilful, fast running player who, if common sense prevailed, would stay clear of the bigger boys in the hard contests because of his light frame. Nick’s debut game in round 13 2010 was as an U18 player, which was followed by three other senior games that year and managed to finish runner up in the Thirds’ Best and Fairest, despite playing only 14 games. As a junior, Nick was talented in all the sports he played. He was a more than capable long distance runner as well as hard to beat in the sprints. Nick was also a ‘spring heel Jack’ in all the jump events. These natural attributes added to his qualities as a footballer, but his quick thinking and ability to get and use the ball was appreciated by the senior coaches. Kyabram Senior Coach, Dave Williams nominated Nick as the player to watch in his first year of senior football in 2011 and hHe admired his ‘football smarts.’ It didn’t take Nick too long to make an impression on the competition that year. By round 5 he had a Rising Star Nomination for his effort against Mansfield. But Nick has always been able to make an impression on his coaches and team members. Team mate in 2013, Josh Linton said,

CENTURY REACHED… Kyabram Bombers Player, Nick Coulstock took on his 100th game at the weekend, which saw his team smash the Tatura Bulldogs by 106 points. Photo: Supplied.

“Nick is the most selfless player I have ever played with.” His contribution has helped the teams he plays in achieve ultimate success. Way back as an U14 player, he was brought up into the U16 Div 2 team by Coach, Stuart Young and ended up winning the flag. A one point win against Echuca in the U18 2009 premiership was another memorable win. However nothing at this stage will match the 2013 Goulburn Valley Senior Premiership against Shepparton United.
