Davis Cup team needs me: Tomic BEST AUSSIE CRAFT BEERS page 12 >>
B
ernard Tomic has said he hopes to mend fences with Tennis Australia (TA) and return to playing for his country, insisting the Australian team need him to win the Davis Cup. Controversial star Tomic ensured headlines for his reality TV debut on I’m A Celebrity... Get Me out of Here by giving the national tennis body a wild verbal lashing.
Speaking in South Africa, he claimed in a News Corp interview there were many unspecified things which he considered corrupt inside TA, which he may speak about in future. Having done so, Tomic expressed a desire to return to representing Australia in Davis Cup - where he has an outstanding 17-4 win-loss record - after sorting out his differences with TA.

Australia to become major arms exporter
A
ustralia wants to become a Top 10 weaponry exporter under a plan due to be announced by Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. The centrepiece is a $3.8 billion Defence Export Facility to help companies find overseas markets with the backing of a new Defence Export Office within the department. Australia currently is ranked 20th in defence industry exports and its market is valued at more than $2 billion. The coalition wants to boost that further and push Australia into the top 10 rankings. Defence Industry Minister Christopher Pyne says Australia already exports a substantial amount - such as the Bushmaster armoured vehicles, parts for the new Joint Strike Fighter planes and life rafts for ships - but there is potential to create thousands more jobs if this is boosted. Australia had a high reputation for quality and capability, but needed to turn that into sales of products and services. “There’s a veritable welter of products, but we haven’t really taken it to the next level, which

is to seriously compete in the world for (a part of) what is a $1.5 trillion part of the world economy,” Mr Pyne told ABC radio on Monday. “I think we have every chance of success.” As well as expanding the Export Finance Investment Corporation’s remit with the new $3.8 billion loan facility, the government will
spend $80 million over four years on a grants program to support small and medium businesses who want to export, another program to help local companies build export capacity, and a focus on trade shows and long-term campaigns. Priority markets for Australian arms include the US, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, the Middle East and the Indo-Pacific. Trade Minister Steve Ciobo says Australia will also look at opportunities in Japan. “What we are looking for are countries where we have got a strong human rights track record and, of course, have safeguards in place,” he told the Nine Network.

NEW RIDE-SHARING PLAYER
LANDS IN MELBOURNE
M
elbourne’s taxi market is set to become even more competitive with a new ridesharing venture due to hit the city’s streets. Taxify, which claims to be Europe’s fastest-growing ridesharing app, begins offering rides in Victoria on Thursday after making its Australian debut in NSW last month. The company, which was launched by then 19-year-old Markus Villig in Estonia in 2013 and now operates in 23 countries, says it already has 10,000 Melbourne drivers registered. “Following huge popular demand for Taxify in NSW with tens of thousands of app downloads in just the first day of launching, we are excited to expand to Melbourne,” Villig said in a statement. Taxify says its drivers will benefit from it taking a 15 per cent commission, highlighting that is almost half of what’s taken by Uber and some other ride-sharing competitors.

Aussies smoking, drinking less, data shows
B
eers and backyard cricket may be synonymous with Australia Day, but it seems some party traditions are less popular than thought. Alcohol consumption has been decreasing nationwide during the five years to 2016 according to the most recent data by Australia Bureau of Statistics, with Aussies only knocking back an average 9.7 litres of alcohol in 2016. And when Aussies do drink, they’re less likely to be cracking open a cold beer than in years gone by. In 1995-96 beer represented 54 per cent of all alcohol consumed, but this figure fell to 40 per cent in 2015-16. It also appears decades of public health campaigns against smoking are making an
impact, with fewer people sneaking off behind the shed for a drag. In 2014-15, 14.5 per cent of adults were daily smokers compared to 23.8 per cent in 1995. If the cricket bat comes out on Australia Day, expect a few wides and missed shots only 1.2 per cent play outdoor cricket more than once a month. And taking a look at what might be on the barbeque on Friday, it seems chicken is the meat of choice. The popular poultry option is most commonly consumed by Aussie meat eaters, with beef coming in second.
GYMNASTICS DOCTOR GETS 175 YEARS
T
he former sports doctor who admitted to molesting some of the top US gymnasts for years has been sentenced to between 40 and 175 years in prison as the judge declared: “I just signed your death warrant.” The sentence on Wednesday capped a remarkable seven-day hearing in which scores of Larry Nassar’s victims were able to confront him face to face in a Michigan courtroom. Judge Rosemarie Aquilina said Nassar’s “decision to assault was precise, calculated, manipulative, devious, despicable”. “It is my honour and privilege to sentence you. You do not deserve to walk outside a prison ever again. You have done nothing to control those urges and anywhere you walk, destruction will occur to those most
vulnerable,” Aquilina said. When the hearing ended, the courtroom broke into applause. A prosecutor said Nassar found competitive gymnastics to be a “perfect place” for his crimes because victims saw him as a “god” in the sport. Nassar turned to the courtroom gallery to make a brief statement, saying that the accounts of more than 150 victims had “shaken me to my core”. He said “no words” can describe how sorry he is for his crimes. One of the first athletes to publicly accuse Nassar of sexual assault was the last victim to offer statements at his sentencing hearing. Rachael Denhollander is a Kentucky lawyer who stepped forward in 2016 after the sports’ governing body was accused of mishandling complaints of sexual assault. Nassar, 54, pleaded guilty to assaulting seven people in the Lansing area, but the sentencing hearing has been open to anyone who said they were a victim.

TRIO CHARGED OVER VIC TOBACCO RING
hree Chinese nationals have been accused of helping smuggle more than $680, 000 worth of cigarettes through Melbourne Airport. Border Force investigators say the trio are part of an organised syndicate of more than 40 people travelling from Southeast Asia with illicit tobacco in their suitcases, estimated to be worth
$682,500. A man, 33, was arrested on Friday after more than 107,000 cigarettes, $260,000 cash and luxury items were found at a property in Docklands linked to one of the ringleaders, while two women, aged 30 and 54, were arrested on Saturday at the airport with 52,000 illegal cigarettes.
GLOBALISATION IS LOSING ITS LUSTRE: MODI
P
rotectionism is gaining ground and globalisation is losing its attractiveness, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has told the World Economic Forum. “Forces of protectionism are raising their heads against globalisation. They want to reverse its flow,” he told the summit in Davos. Modi delivered the warning in a speech on Tuesday just hours after the Trump administration approved tariffs on imported solar-energy components and large washing machines in a bid to help US manufacturers. Without directly mentioning President Donald Trump or the US, he said “the solution to this
worrisome situation against globalisation is not isolation.” Modi quoted Mohandas Gandhi to drive home his point: “I don’t want the windows of my house to be closed from all directions. I want the winds of cultures of all countries to enter my house with aplomb and go out also.” Modi was meant to be the event’s highlight until Trump decided to come as well. Trump is due to speak on Friday, and the tariffs his administration approved this week will overshadow his arrival. Modi is leading a big government and business delegation to the WEF, the first Indian prime minister do so in 21 years.
UK man killed by pet python, inquest told
A
UK animal lover found dead at his home was killed by a 2.5 metre pet python, an inquest has heard. Keen snake handler Dan Brandon, 31, died of asphyxiation at his home in the village of Church Crookham, Hampshire, on August 25 last year, the inquest was told. His mother, Babs, said he kept 10 snakes and 12 tarantulas in his room at the family home and had had Tiny, an African rock python, since she was small enough to fit in his hand. Coroner Andrew Bradley recorded a verdict of misadventure and said: “The most likely scenario is that Tiny was engaged with Dan, I have no doubt about that. “She was coiling around him, at which point I have no idea. There was a point at which either she takes hold of him unexpectedly or trips him up or some other mechanism.” Mr Bradley said the snake then hid, probably “because of the
shock of him falling or because of his reaction”. He added Mr Brandon was asphyxiated “as a result of contact with Tiny”, and that he “cannot see any other reason” for the death. Mr Brandon’s parents, brother and sister were in court, and Mrs Brandon told the coroner the snake loved her son, was his “baby”, and that he never felt threatened by Tiny and was aware of how strong she was.

Hitler’s Mercedes passed over at auction A
1939 Mercedes car that was used by Adolf Hitler remained unsold at an auction held in the US because nobody was willing to meet at least the minimum price. The highest bid for the vehicle at the Wednesday evening auction was $US7 million, far below the $US10 million that local media had estimated it could bring, given that it was specially ordered by and manufactured for Hitler during World War II. However, the auction house specialising in classic cars said that “negotiations are continuing” and a sale could ultimately occur. The dark-coloured, open-top W150 770k Grosser Offener Tourenwagen, dubbed the “Super Mercedes,” have been repaired, but the interior is in practically its original condition. After the end of the war, the car, one of five that the German automaker manufactured and the only one that is still in existence, passed into the hands of the US military and was used by US forces stationed in Le Havre, France.

Oprah ‘not interested’ in presidential run
O
prah Winfrey has downplayed rumours she could stand for the US presidency in 2020, insisting: “It’s not something that interests me...I don’t have the DNA for it.” A powerful speech made at the Golden Globes awards ceremony earlier this month, sparked calls for the 63-year-old to run for the White House. But in an interview with Style magazine, Winfrey said: “I met with someone the other day who said that they would help me with a campaign. That’s not for me.” Winfrey, who is known by
millions on first-name basis, first rose to fame as the host of a TV talk show, using it to build a media empire that spans magazine publishing, movie and television production, cable TV and satellite radio. Born into poverty, she is now one of the world’s wealthiest women.

SKIERS FALL TO DEATH IN FRENCH ALPS
T
wo British men have fallen “several hundred metres” to their deaths while skiing in the French Alps. The pair were on holiday in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc and skiing off-piste when they fell on Sunday morning, local rescue services said. A spokesman for Le Peloton de Gendarmerie de Haute Montagne (PGHM) told the Press
Association: “The 25-year-old British men were skiing in a group of three when they were killed. “A third man, who was also British, raised the alarm just after 11am and mountain rescue services arrived within 10 minutes but the two victims were pronounced dead at the scene. “It is understood that the three men were all on holiday in the
regiotn.” He continued: “The deceased were skiing off-piste but the route is very well-known and is popular with skiers. “Today the conditions were very unfavourable. The snow was very compacted and very icy and it is believed that both the deceased slipped. “They fell several hundred metres to their deaths.”
ustralian men are still eating almost twice the amount of salt they should every day, and Aussie women aren’t too far behind. A new study by Australian researchers suggests health warnings about the link between high-salt diets and cardiovascular disease simply have not worked. Sydney’s George Institute for Global Health has analysed data from more than 30 salt-intake studies carried out between 1989 and 2015 and involving almost 17,000 people. They found that despite public warnings about the risks of salt-laden diets, there was no evidence that intake had dropped. The analysis indicates Aussie men are still consuming 10.1 grams a day - more than double the five grams the World Health Organization recommends. Women aren’t doing much better, at 7.34 grams a day.

Kabul blast toll rises to 103, 235 wounded
VIC COPS TARGET UNDERGROUND HOON MEETINGS
K
BRUNO MARS WINS SONG, RECORD OF YEAR
abul has reacted in despair and fear, a day after a suicide bomb killed more than 100 people and wounded at least 235 in the worst attack seen in the Afghan capital in months. There was a mix of helpless anger at the seemingly endless wave of attacks after an ambulance packed with explosives blew up in a crowded city street on Saturday. “How are we to live? Where should we go?” asked shopkeeper Mohammad Hanif, who was in his shop near the site of the explosion when it went off. Interior Minister Wais Barmak said the casualty toll had risen to at least 103 dead and 235 wounded. He said at least two vehicles painted as ambulances were involved in the attack, one of which blew up at when it was stopped at a police checkpoint. The blast was claimed by
the Taliban, a week after their deadly attack on the city’s Intercontinental Hotel, in a calculated answer to US President Donald Trump’s new strategy in Afghanistan. “The Islamic Emirate has a clear message for Trump and his hand kissers that if you go ahead with a policy of aggression and speak from the barrel of a gun, don’t expect Afghans to grow flowers in response,” Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said in a statement. Trump, who last year sent more American troops to Afghanistan and ordered an increase in air strikes and other assistance to Afghan forces, said the attack “renews our resolve and that of our Afghan partners”. The attack was the worst seen in the Afghan capital since a truck bomb near the German embassy killed 150 people in May. After a deadly week in which
an office of the aid group Save the Children in the eastern city of Jalalabad was also attacked, President Ashraf Ghani’s Western-backed government has faced growing pressure to improve security. Despite a major tightening in checks following the May 31 attack, the ambulance was able to get through the checkpoints, apparently without difficulty. Pressure is likely to mount on President Ashraf Ghani to resolve political confrontation with his opponents, in particular with provincial powerbrokers defying central rule, and focus on security. Saturday’s attack, described as “an atrocity” by the head of the UN mission in Afghanistan, drew universal condemnation from neighbouring countries and allies who had expressed confidence that the new US strategy is producing results.

and Bushcare, a Parks Victoria sponsored community group, raced to help the little-winged creatures along the suburban river banks of Kew and Fairfield on Sunday as the mercury soared to 38C. The small group used backpack water sprayers to prevent some flying foxes from overheating and falling from their upside-down perches.
“When Melbourne becomes a furnace, large numbers of bats can succumb to heat stroke,” group leader Lawrence Pope told AAP on Monday. On Sunday, there was no repeat of the mass losses seen in early January when a 42C scorcher led to hundreds of newborn fatalities among the Yarra Bend’s 30,000-strong population.

Beer poll shows ‘hazy’ brews on the rise W
hen it comes to beer, ‘hazy’ is no longer just a word you might use to describe the way you feel after drinking a few pints. It’s also how craft beer connoisseurs refer to a style of Indian Pale Ale growing in popularity among Aussies, according to an annual poll. Seven beers in the ‘hazy’ or New England IPA style - which began on the east coast of the US and is often likened to a cloudy fruit juice - are among 24 new drinks in the GABS Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beers for 2017. One of them, Hop Nation’s ‘Jedi Juice’ New England IPA, has even made the top 10, settling in eighth place. The number one spot, however, has gone to the ‘XPA’ American Pale Ale from Balter, a Gold Coast-based brewery part owned by surfing stars Mick Fanning, Joel Parkinson, Josh Kerr and Bede Durbridge. Co-founder of the GABS Hottest 100 Steve Jeffares says Balter’s ownership has helped build support for the brand, which has operated for just under two years. However he believes its XPA, an unofficial style suggesting the beer has a bigger profile than a typical pale ale, is undoubtedly a “very worthy winner”. “There’s a lot of fruitiness in the beer, it’s a very easy drinking beer,” Mr Jeffares told AAP. “A lot of critics would put it in their top three beers in Australia at the moment as well.” The ‘Pacific Ale’ Australian Pale Ale from Byron Bay-based Stone & Wood has come second place in the poll, which drew tens of thousands of votes. The drink has topped the ranking three times since the GABS Hottest 100 began in 2008, as an ode to the more famous Triple J music poll, and consistently made the top three. Mr Jeffares said it also seems apparent this year that Australian beer loves take notice when independently-owned breweries are purchased by big players. Some major acquisitions in the past year
have included NSW’s 4 Pines and SA’s Pirate Life being sold to the world’s largest brewery AB InBev, while WA’s Feral Brewing was purchased by Coca-Cola Amatil. “I think there might be a couple of exceptions but most of them saw their beers drop from where they were in the poll last year,” Mr Jeffares said. In total, 71 per cent of the beers that made the list were produced by independent breweries.

The Australian star, who played the character in the second instalment of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy, died of
an accidental overdose of prescription drugs in January 2008 at the age of 28. Tom Hiddleston’s Marvel God of Mischief, Loki, was third and Die Hard’s master robber Hans Gruber, played by the late Alan Rickman, was fourth. Anthony Hopkins’ Hannibal Lecter from Silence Of The Lambs rounded out the top five. Elsewhere in the list, Voldemort was in ninth place, the cold-hearted Nurse Ratched from One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest was at 13 and horror icon Freddy Krueger,
star of the Nightmare On Elm Street series, was at 18. Empire’s editor-in-chief, Terri White said: “Bad guys are a huge part of what makes movies so damn good. But who’s the baddest? “Empire readers voted in their droves and named Darth Vader their number one villain of all time. The pull of the dark side is still strong it would seem...”

Assange is a ‘genius’: Pamela Anderson MAGISTRATE
H
ollywood actress Pamela Anderson has described Julian Assange as a “genius” and said a rape allegation against him was a “setup”. The former Baywatch pinup visited the WikiLeaks founder at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London on Monday, where he has been living since 2012 to avoid extradition to Sweden. She spoke of their close relationship in an interview on the BBC’s Victoria Derbyshire programme on Tuesday. “I would rather be a friend to Julian than anybody,” she said. “I think he’s so full of information, has an incredible perspective and is a genius and is trying to help humanity and I think that the ultimate goal is to stop these senseless wars. “We talk about everything, I always make sure he’s OK, make sure he’s exercising, make sure he’s eating well.” She said it is “impossible” for him to leave the embassy after facing a rape allegation, which was dropped last year.
this was not something that was true. It was an idea to discredit him to extradite him to the States.” Speaking about feminism, Anderson told the programme: “It’s complicated, I mean it’s great, feminism obviously has come in the last 50 years and has given us so much freedom and so many Australian-born Assange, 46, great things. has been living in the London “But I think that in some cases embassy of the South American even progressive countries like country for five-and-a-half years Sweden a condom breaks and it’s after being granted political a form of sexual assault - I mean asylum as he fought sex-related that’s just going too far.” claims in Sweden. WikiLeaks has previously Swedish prosecutors have been accused by Hillary dropped their investigation into Clinton of acting as a “fully allegations against him, but he owned subsidiary of Russian fears he will be extradited to the intelligence” after it published United States if he leaves the damaging emails, allegedly stolen building and that there is a sealed by Russian operatives, during indictment ordering his arrest. the 2016 presidential election Anderson said the rape claim campaign. was a “setup” against Assange “I think...to have true and continued: “The best way information be a national security to discredit somebody is to call threat is bizarre and to be them a rapist, or a pedophile, considered radical for exposing how do you get over that even if truths and just truths in full,” it’s not true?

Facebook to prioritise ‘trustworthy’ news
F
acebook Inc will begin to prioritise “trustworthy” news outlets on its stream of social media posts as it works to combat “sensationalism” and “misinformation,” Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg says. The company, which has more than 2 billion monthly users, said it will use surveys to determine rankings on how trustworthy news outlets are. It also said it would put an emphasis on local news sources. The move is likely to send shockwaves through the media landscape in nearly every country, given the ubiquity of the world’s largest social network and how central it has become in some places to the distribution of news. Zuckerberg outlined the
shakeup in a post on Facebook, saying that starting next week the News Feed, the company’s centrepiece product, would prioritise “high quality news” over less trusted sources. “There’s too much sensationalism, misinformation and polarisation in the world today,” Zuckerberg wrote. “Social media enables people to spread information faster than ever before, and if we don’t specifically tackle these problems, then we end up amplifying them,” he wrote. The change will affect not only links posted by news outlets but also news stories that individuals share, Facebook said. At the same time, Zuckerberg said he expects the amount of
news overall on Facebook to shrink by 20 per cent: to about 4 per cent of all content from 5 per cent currently. Facebook has had a stormy relationship with news organisations, especially those with strong political leanings. In 2016, Republican US legislators expressed concern that Facebook was suppressing news stories of interest to conservative readers. Facebook said that ranking by trustworthiness was not intended to directly affect any specific groups of publishers based on their size or ideological rankings. Zuckerberg said he settled on the idea of surveying Facebook users after rejecting having the company itself rank news outlets trustworthiness.
“We decided that having the community determine which sources are broadly trusted would be most objective,” he wrote in his post. Facebook said it did not plan to release the survey results because they will represent an incomplete picture of how a story’s position in a person’s feed is determined.
ELECTRIC CARS SET AS NEXT SHOCK FOR MP’s L
abor wants the Turnbull government to get on with setting tougher emissions standards on vehicles while coalition backbenchers are reportedly threatening yet another revolt if electric cars are further subsidised. Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg revved up interest in electric vehicles a week ago, noting the consumer interest was already there but prices were too high. But coalition backbenchers who have repeatedly opposed any moves on policies to combat climate change, including Craig Kelly, Andrew Broad and John Williams, have told The Australian they will ask the party room to resist any new subsidies for electric cars.
They’ve seized on a report from the federal infrastructure department which warned because Australia’s electricity generation is highly reliant on coal, electric vehicles could have a larger overall carbon footprint than equivalent petrol or diesel vehicles. “The risk here is you’ll have the rich person in Balmain buying a Tesla, subsidised by a bloke in Penrith who’s driving a Corolla and the Tesla will have more carbon emissions than the Corolla,” Mr Kelly said. But Labor says the government has been sitting
on recommendations for new emissions standards that would help address this issue for nearly three years. “We’ve got very low take-up of electric cars and one of the reasons for that is because we are the only advanced economy not to have a proper emissions standard for our vehicles,” frontbencher Jim Chalmers told Sky news recently. “The reason they haven’t implemented that recommendation is because the knuckle-draggers in the Liberal
Party run the show.” A ministerial forum on vehicle emissions was set up in late 2015 and was supposed to have reported on a draft plan for new measures in March 2017. The government’s climate policy review released in December said while there were just 4000 electric cars on Australia’s roads now, there would likely be 12,000 by 2020 and one million by 2030. It said an efficiency standard for cars could save drivers up to $519 a year in fuel costs while cutting emissions. Meanwhile, the British billionaire who bought the Arrium steelworks in Whyalla is now considering building electric cars at the former Holden site in Adelaide, News Corp reports.

Vic tech start- Degree in flying cars coming soon ups need more
‘UNICORNS’
S
tart-ups have pumped about $1.6 billion into Victoria in the space of a year but a new report says the state needs more billion-dollar “unicorns”. LaunchVic, the state government's start-up agency, says Victoria is home to three “digital marketplaces” worth at least $1 billion each - Carsales. com.au, Seek and REA. Chief executive Dr Kate Cornick said the state wanted to see more start-ups crack the $1 billion “unicorn” mark and then reinvest in the technology economy. “You can imagine this funnel, where you've got a big density of early-stage companies and then some of those companies will go on and become a 'unicorn', become a billion-dollar company,” Dr Cornick told AAP. “We have some very successful big businesses where... you're seeing people reinvesting into the ecosystem.” An Ernst and Young report on Victoria's digital economy is being released on Wednesday morning showing the state is home to about 190 digital marketplaces, with the sector growing at 11 per cent each year. Those companies made a combined $1.6 billion in profit, with about $630 million created by organisations themselves and $950 million by the platforms’ sellers. “The fact that we have three unicorns in this area ... attracts new marketplace businesses and that's why we're seeing this flourishing,” Dr Kate Cornick said. She said while these kinds of businesses were regularly criticised for disrupting traditional industries, they are also creating jobs.
S
elf-driving car pioneer Sebastian Thrun has shifted his gaze to the skies, as his Silicon Valley online school Udacity launches what it calls the first “nanodegree” in flying car engineering. With companies from Airbus and Amazon to Uber throttling up development of their own autonomous aerial vehicles, Thrun believes “in a few years time, this will be the hottest topic on the planet”. As usual, Thrun intends to be on the cutting edge of this emerging technology. The 50-year-old PhD computer scientist and former Stanford University professor co-founded Udacity in 2012 and says the online school’s self-driving car program has attracted 50,000 applicants since 2016. He expects the new flying car curriculum, which opens in late February and begins taking applications on Tuesday, to draw at least 10,000 students.
Udacity is offering two 12-week terms, at $US1200 ($A1680) each, including a course in Aerial Robotics and one in Intelligent Air Systems, that provide an online certification in a fraction of the time of a traditional degree course. In an interview, Thrun said his motivation in creating the flying-car program was similar to what drove the school’s widely publicised self-driving car course. Thrun said “it’s almost impossible to hire qualified people” to design and engineer future vehicles, both terrestrial and aerial, that employ advanced technology, including robotics, artificial intelligence and machine learning. “There is a huge shortage of engineers. There are plenty of smart people - the missing link is education,” said Thrun, who headed the team that launched Google’s self-driving car project, since renamed Waymo. Thrun remains an adviser to
Google parent Alphabet Inc and retains close ties to Alphabet CEO and co-founder Larry Page. Page is an investor in Kitty Hawk Corp, a two-year-old startup whose stated mission is “to make the dream of personal flight a reality”. Thrun is chief executive of Kitty Hawk and a co-owner. Kitty Hawk’s first prototype, dubbed the Flyer, is not exactly a flying car but more of a oneperson drone that is capable of vertical take-off and landing and does not need wheels. “’Flying car’ might be a bit of a misnomer - more of an attention grabber,” admits Thrun, who said he has been working with Page and others to develop autonomous aerial vehicles. “It feels like science fiction now,” Thrun said. “But with Google and Amazon moving in, there is going to be enormous activity around this in the next year or two.”
BITCOIN USE UNDER SCRUTINY IN BALI
I
ndonesian authorities are investigating the use of bitcoin in the holiday island of Bali, amid warnings by the central bank in Southeast Asia’s biggest economy over the risks posed by virtual currencies. The probe started after the central bank on December 7, 2017 issued a regulation banning the use of cryptocurrencies in payment systems, said Causa Iman Karana, head of Bank Indonesia’s representative office in Bali. “We found out from some postings on social media that Bali
appeared to have become a haven for bitcoin transactions,” said Karana. Central bank officials and police went undercover at the end of 2017 to investigate scores of businesses in Bali advertising online that they offered bitcoin payment services, said Karana. The team found two cafes still using bitcoin as a means of payment, but 44 businesses including car rental outlets, hotels, travel companies and jewellery stores, previously offering the service, had now stopped, he said.
“The next step is we will ban them as mandated by the law. We ask them not to use it anymore. Along with the Directorate of Special Crime Investigation unit, we will enforce the rule that all transactions in Indonesia must use rupiah,” he said. Some locals in Bali said bitcoin was being used mainly by foreigners on the island, which is Indonesia’s tourism hub and has a large expatriate community.

DRONE FLIES TO RESCUE TWO NSW SWIMMERS
A
remote controlled drone has come to the rescue of two swimmers who were swept out to sea in northern NSW. The drone, controlled by a NSW Surf Life Saving member, flew about a kilometre north of where lifeguards were stationed at Lennox Head before dropping a flotation device down to the pair of struggling swimmers on Thursday. Vision of the rescue, filmed from the drone’s onboard camera, shows the swimmers looking up at the drone before
the pair swim towards the deployed flotation device dropped next to them. Lifeguard Jai Sheridan, who piloted the drone, said it reached the swimmers far quicker than other lifeguards would have been able to. “I was able to launch it, fly it to the location, and drop the pod all in about one to two minutes. On a normal day that would have taken our lifeguards a few minutes longer to reach the members of the public,” Mr Sheridan said in a statement.
Gold Coast Council digital move to benefit ratepayers
T
he Gold Coast city council plans to connect 60,000 devices, such as sprinklers and sewage systems, to the internet by 2021 in a move they hope will save ratepayers thousands of dollars. The devices will be connected to the Gold Coast City Council’s new $5.5 million fibre backbone currently being installed along the G-link transport system. The council-owned infrastructure, which will stretch for 45 kilometres, from Griffith University and the Gold Coast University Hospital in the north to Coolangatta in the south and Helensvale in the west, will be capable of speeds of up to 1GB per second. This digital connection will supply more bandwidth in the area than any of the existing telecommunications carriers. The cable will initially be used to power real-time live feeds from the city’s 550 security cameras and city-wide traffic management camera system during the Commonwealth Games. But it will also allow tens of thousands of council devices to be linked and controlled via the internet. The rapidly escalating technology is known as the Internet of Things - a network of physical devices with the ability to connect and exchange data. It’s the same technology that allows a
fridge to place an order for more milk or butter. For the council, it means greater control over services and the ability to increase or decrease supply according to demand, reducing waste and allowing for better planning. Once connected, dams, pumping stations, sewage plants and even watering systems, will be able to monitor and adjust systems to demand. Park sprinklers, for example, could sense when the soil is dry and automatically turn on the taps. By 2021 the city will have tens of thousands of devices networked, sending data 24 hours-a-day. Connectivity will bring huge benefits for ratepayers, says City of Gold Coast Digital City Program Manager Ian Hatton. “It can cost more than $50 a year to have something connected to the internet, so by having our own network we can keep costs down, and expand our IoT network to maximise benefits to residents and visitors,” Hatton says. “With water meters, you might have a small unit in the house that can tell you how much water you have used for the year, your daily usage and even dam levels,” Hatton says. Evidence shows that enabling customers to monitor their water use can reduce overall
consumption, with resulting reductions in bills. Already electricity authorities can monitor power usage and limit supply to areas and, in some cases, even individual appliances. Many air-conditioners sold today have the option of allowing them to be controlled remotely in a similar way to off-peak hot water systems. With the Internet of Things, this can be done from a mobile phone. The council also plans to use the fibre network to give up to 50,000 businesses access to a super-fast internet capable of rapidly transferring large amounts of data in fractions of a second. It hopes the fast internet speeds will be a major drawcard for businesses to base their operations on the Gold Coast. Once the Commonwealth Games are over the council, which now has a carrier licence, will on-sell some of the excess bandwidth to other telecommunications companies, recouping the $5.5 million cost to ratepayers and providing a future source of income for the city. Hatton says the network would futureproof the city for the next 25 years. “It is all part of a program of modernisation that will add to the reputation of the Gold Coast as a connected city - as a leader,” Hatton says.
Kim Dotcom marries, sues NZ government
W
ellington German-born internet entrepreneur Kim Dotcom has married his fiance Elizabeth Donnelly in Queenstown, and celebrated by serving “a multi-billion-dollar damages claim” against the New Zealand government. “Today, 6 years ago, the NZ Govt enabled the unlawful destruction of Megaupload and seizure of my global assets,” he wrote on Twitter on Saturday. On January 20 2012, Dotcom and three associates were arrested in a the raid, in which over 70 heavily armed officers descended on his $NZ30 million ($A27.3 million) mansion near Auckland at the request of the United States. “My lawyers have served a multi billion dollar damages claim against the Govt today,” he added. He also shared photos of his wedding on Twitter, including one of his “best man,” a caramel coloured Cavoodle named “Toby Dotcom”. Dotcom is in the middle of fighting his extradition to the United States on 13 counts including conspiracy to commit racketeering, copyright infringement, money laundering and wire fraud, all relating to the operations of Dotcom’s former file-sharing website Megaupload. The 23-year-old Donnelly is Dotcom’s third wife. The 43-year-old separated from his second wife Mona, the mother of four of his children, in 2014. He married his first wife, with whom he has one child, in 2007.

argot Robbie is an Oscar nominee but her ambitious plan to play American Olympic figure skater Tonya Harding appeared to be headed for disaster when she first began preparing for the role. The 27-year-old grew up on Queensland’s Gold Coast where white sandy beaches and surf, not ice skating rinks, were plentiful. “No, I didn’t grow up on the ice,”
Robbie laughed in an interview with AAP. The fact Robbie received a best actress nomination on Tuesday (Wednesday AEDT) for her performance in I, Tonya is testament not only to her acting talent, but also her athletic skill and drive. It also confirms Robbie’s place as one of Hollywood’s elite, with the Australian competing
against 21-time Oscar nominee and three-time winner Meryl Streep (for The Post), Frances McDormand (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri), Sally Hawkins (The Shape of Water) and Saoirse Ronan (Lady Bird) at the March 4 Academy Awards. I, Tonya director and fellow Australian Craig Gillespie admitted to initially having a few doubts about how many shots of
stunt doubles and visual effects he would have to use to cover up Robbie’s lack of ice-skating experience. Harding, a two-time Olympian, had a controversial past but she was also a phenomenal athlete who was the first American to execute a triple axel in competition. Asked to score Robbie’s ability

RODMAN IN REHAB AFTER DUI ARREST F
ormer NBA star Dennis Rodman has checked into an alcohol rehabilitation centre after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence in California. Rodman’s longtime agent, Darren Prince, told The Associated Press that Rodman checked into Turning Point Rehabilitation Centre in Patterson, New Jersey, on Wednesday to seek assistance in his struggle with alcoholism. Rodman spent three weeks at Turning Point in 2014 upon his return from a trip to North Korea. “It’s no secret Dennis has been struggling on and off with alcoholism the past 17 years,” Prince told USA Today in a
statement after Rodman was arrested. “He’s been dealing with some very personal issues the past month and we’re going to get him the help he needs now.” The Newport Beach Police Department told USA Today on Sunday that Rodman, 56, was pulled over because of unspecified vehicle code violations. A subsequent investigation led to his arrest for DUI. According to police, Rodman was cooperative and agreed to take a breathalyser test at the scene. He was then arrested, booked at the Newport Beach Jail and released about seven hours later. Rodman also was arrested for DUI in 1999 and 2003.

as an ice skater when she first took on the role, with a 10 perfection and a zero woeful, Gillespie did not hold back. “She was a minus two,” Gillespie said. Just five months before shooting was scheduled to begin, Gillespie sent Robbie and skating choreographer Sarah Kawahara examples of the routines he planned to use in the film. Robbie and Kawahara then hid away and trained. “Margot was very secretive about it and I kept saying, ‘How’s it going with the skating?’ and she said ‘Good. Good’,” Gillespie said.
“Then after about two months she texted me, ‘Hey, I’m on my outside edges’. “I was like, ‘That doesn’t sound like you have gotten very far’. “She said, ‘No, we’re getting there’. “She was relentless on working on it and even when she was down in Australia right before we shot, she tracked down iceskating rinks at Christmas and went every day while she was supposed to be on vacation.” Gillespie said Robbie had become so skilled, most of the ice-skating scenes audiences see on screen is Robbie, not a stunt double or CGI.

New show harvests healthy seaside feasts
W
hen chef Guy Turland opened his Sydney restaurant Bondi Harvest, he always dreamed about bringing his ideas to the small screen. It’s finally happened and his TV show of the same name will showcase his food ethos and beachy local lifestyle at the idyllic seaside spot. “There’s three characters on the show, that’s myself, it’s Bondi and it’s also the Bondi locals,” Turland said. “For every episode we get a new local in and we hero them. We don’t want the show to be all about me. We want to show the local side to Bondi. Bondi has such a
beautiful history and culture and we really tried to make sure we captured all of that.” The local heroes range from people who are well known, to friends that Turland admires who live in the area. “I think that’s important, it hasn’t always been about having people who are famous or who have a following. It might just be that this person does an amazing job at what they do and they’ve got a beautiful story to tell,” he
said. The food and recipes on Bondi Harvest may sound difficult to make but Turland likes to smash a few myths and show how easy it is to make them. “They’re recipes people probably wouldn’t try to make at home because they sound difficult. One of my favourite recipes in the whole series is a whole smoked salmon. So you get a whole side
of salmon and smoke it over wood chips. It sounds difficult but it’s dead simple and it lasts a week in the fridge,” he said. They’re ultimately simple recipes which Turland says he then tweaks to give them the “wow” factor. “We want people to cook at home and fall in love with food and healthy eating,” he said. “Just saying ‘healthy eating’ can give people anxiety but I want people to see food how I see it, as something to be celebrated. So lots of beach vibes, fun happy community and a whole lot of people cooking together.” *Bondi Harvest can be seen on Food Network Australia SBS

The Great Australian Bake Off returns
M
el Buttle has one of the most enviable jobs in showbusiness. The comedian gets to eat cake, biscuits and pies, and is paid to do it as a host alongside Claire Hooper on The Great Australian Bake Off, while chefs Maggie Beer and Matt Moran judge the baking. “It’s the best job,” Buttle said. “All of the country’s best bakers are making sausage rolls and our job is to swan around and talk to them and make jokes, and then try the sausage rolls. I can’t believe that I get paid to do it.” Buttle has established an easy on-screen rapport with Hooper. It helps that the pair have known each other for years, having both spent time working the stand-up scene in Perth. They even take naps together while they’re shooting Bake Off. “We’re very close. We have our own little couches in the trailer and we’d say ‘lights off good night’ and someone sets the alarm on their phone for 20 minutes,” she said. The other on-screen duo, of course, are the judges who each have a completely different style. “Maggie and Matt are like salt and pepper,” Buttle said. “Matt is a bit more gruff and business-like and goes up to the contestants asking ‘what are you dong with your walnuts, they’re burnt’ whereas Maggie is like ‘oh I
see you’ve lost track of time’ and is a bit more delicate with them. They’re so fun.” The contestants this season are also very different to one another. “This year was probably the most diverse group we’ve had in terms of age, everything,” Buttle said. “We had a French guy, a Chinese dude, a grandma, and they’re all different in their own way. Clare and I spend so much time with them and really got to know them. We’re with them for about six weeks so by the time we’re down to the top four we’re all just kind of mates. It feels like school camp, it’s really sweet.” After her time working on the show, Buttle has learned what makes a good baker. “If you can nail flavour and presentation you’re a great baker. People who are great bakers cook outside of baking as well and think about what goes together. If you eat a lot of foods from different cultures and really immerse yourself in flavours and take some risks, I’m into those sort of bakers, the ones who surprise you and put beetroot in their chocolate cake, for example, for a bit of tartness and moisture,” she said. “So I think a good baker has a good understanding of how to make something look amazing but also really likes to think about what flavours do people want to eat.” *The Great Australian Bake Off Season 3 airs on Thursday on Lifestyle.
Aussie school kids drinking, smoking less
S
chool-aged Aussie kids are drinking less alcohol and smoking less tobacco and cannabis, a new study shows. Better parental attitudes about the dangers have been linked to the trend, identified by an analysis of more than 40,000 student surveys completed in Victoria, Queensland and Western Australia between 1999 and 2015. But so, too, has the fact it’s become harder for kids to
get their hands on harmful substances. “Alcohol, tobacco and cannabis use all fell significantly from 1999 to 2015,” Australian researchers found, but noted higher levels of use in Victoria compared to the other two states. It said the reductions appeared to go hand-in-hand with less tolerant parental attitudes towards drugs, and the fact students had greater difficulty accessing them.

Queen Forever – Get ready for Freddie ....continued
Prepare to be blown away with the magic that is Queen Forever - The Australian Queen Tribute Show. One of the most powerful and dynamic live acts in music history is recreated on stage with such brilliance and accuracy, you’ll think you’re seeing the real thing. Set amongst the trees on rolling greens of Rossdale Golf Club this unique outdoor performance, reminiscent of Queen live at Wembley, expect all the hits like We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions, Another One Bites The Dust, Fat Bottomed Girls, Don’t Stop Me Now, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Somebody to Love and of course, Bohemian Rhapsody. The essence of Queen is captured perfectly with incredible costumes, a stunning portrayal of Freddie Mercury by Gareth Hill and a stage show that will blow you away. Queen reined the world rock charts for more 20 years and it is fitting that such dedicated performers bring them to life. Die-hard Queen fan Gareth Hill, who assumes the role of lead singer Freddie Mercury, is a must see, sounding, acting and looking incredibly like the flamboyant legendary vocalist. Add to the line up, fellow life long Queen fans Scotty Hotpants, replicating the licks of Brian May, Darryn McLaughlin
as reliable bass player John Deacon, Danny Oakhill as Spike on keys and Brad Hodge with a replica Wembley 86’ drum kit as Roger Taylor, and you’ve got yourself the most technically accurate Queen tribute show in the country. The show brings to life the brilliance and magic of Queen with no reliance on backing tracks and all songs played in the original keys. It’s pretty simple. These guys sound like Queen, perform like Queen, look like Queen and have a hell of a lot of fun doing it, as will you, watching it. Queen Forever rocks Rosdale on February 18. Whether you’re 8 or 80, this show is for you, so grab your picnic blanket ad air guitars, put on your dancin’ shoes and bring the whole family!! Live @ the Green on February 18 at Rossdale Golf Club in Aspendale. Gates open at 3pm for an afternoon of food & drinks, kids entertainment, music and fun in the sun from 4pm. Tickets are available now from trybooking.com or visit www. rossdalegolf.com.au for more details.

I’m a cheeky and mischievous boy and love stirring up my friends to have a zoom around the paddock with me, especially at feed time. Did I mention I LOVE feed time?! RSPCA Peninsula 03 5978 9000 1030 Robinsons Road Pearcedale
I’m a sweet little rabbit who definitely lives up to her name. I’m looking for a loving owner who will help me come out of my shell and give me endless pats.
I’m a shy little puss who needs a helping hand to come out of my shell. I’m not really one for hiking or camping, I prefer to stay inside relaxing and knitting instead.

GEMINI This week asks you to focus more on yourself, Gemini. Having a goal in mind is a great practice, but sometimes you also burden yourself of having to follow a flowchart and a timeline every time, which if unattended could result to self-criticizing. Play it smart, dear! Use your creativity and resources. Share the work if possible, so you don’t feel overwhelmed.
CANCER Rational thinking joins with intuition this week, Cancer. Expect some unusual dreams and you could wake up with the feeling that they have an important message for you. You’re not wrong with that, Crab, and it won’t be hard for you to figure out what they mean. You learn an important lesson this week, that is happiness can be everywhere. LEO Brace yourself, Leo, because this week will start with fireworks. Tension could erupt in the workplace and things may not be pretty. Arm yourself well but don’t loose your ground and get carried away. Whatever happens, bear in mind that it’s just a job. Don’t worry because once it is extinguished, a calm period starts.
If you use logic you can solve the puzzle without guesswork.

VIRGO It’s not a weakness to listen to other people’s input, especially from that special person, Virgo. You will learn to know yourself better if you are open for feedback and maybe even criticism. Take this in a positive way and fit it into your life to become a better version of yourself. Control the urge to shop until you drop because this could lead to buyer’s remorse. LIBRA Compliments are flying this week and you want to believe it all too eagerly. Try to make a distinction between who means it and who doesn’t, Libra. Find the true intention of all those beautiful words. This is a good time to improve your social contacts. You may not need them right now, but you’ll have to ask a favour or two soon. If you’re into sales, the stars encourage positive communication. SCORPIO You’re looking at a busy week, Scorpio. Try not to exhaust yourself by over-planning. Instead of going through every inch of the plan, get moving. With your confidence and hard work, you can almost taste success. Do you have proposal? Trust that you know exactly what to say to captivate your audience. SAGITTARIUS This week teaches you to be more patient and understanding of the people around you, Sagi. If someone irritates you, the best remedy is to just ignore it. Let things go and don’t let something small ruin your pleasant mood. Try not to take criticisms negatively, but instead rise above it and learn from it. To avoid confusion, make lines of communication open and clear. CAPRICORN You know the grass is always greener on the other side, but it may not fit the circumstances that you’re on right now, Cap. It’s fine to dream but reckless behaviour isn’t a good idea. Bear in mind that desires don’t always have to be fulfilled, so stop comparing yourself to others.

DAVIS CUP TEAM NEEDS ME: TOMIC << continued from front page...
“Obviously I have had a few problems with the federation, so it is obviously going to take some time to change and I hope we can change in the next year or so,” Tomic said. Ranked a lowly 143rd in the world after a troubled year in which he missed Davis Cup while struggling with motivation and form, Tomic insisted he had a future in the Australian team and that he could have made the difference in last year’s semi-final loss to Belgium. “The Davis Cup is huge for me,” Tomic said. “Everyone knows down there that they are going to need me to win Davis Cup.” Tomic’s immediate tournament schedule is unclear, having headed
to the jungle for filming of the Ten Network show after failing to qualify for the Australian Open. But he was adamant his playing career future remained bright. “It is not a big problem for me, I have got to just stay healthy and play a lot of matches the next six to 12 months and get my ranking back to where I should be,” he said. “Maybe top five in the world is my goal. “Being No.1 and winning 15 grand slams is a bit not realistic right now, and becoming Roger Federer. “I feel that if I do the right things over the next five or 10 years I could probably win some majors and that is something I am going to push forward to.”
WOODS HAS WORK TO DO ON SWING: FALDO S
ix-time major winner Nick Faldo claims it is too early to judge the quality of Tiger Woods’s US PGA Tour comeback. Admitting the 14-time major winner showed
flashes of his former brilliance at Torrey Pines, Faldo insists Woods’s swing lacks the rhythm and
consistency required to be regularly competitive. Playing his first full-field tournament since February last year, having spent 10 months on the sidelines recovering from spinal fusion surgery, Woods closed with an even-par 72 and a three-under total at Torrey Pines. Woods, who has eight wins at Torrey Pines including the 2008 US Open, could even snare a top25 result once play has finished. The 42-year-old’s next start will be the LA Open at Riviera Country Club in mid February. Former world No.1 Faldo has implored Woods to work on the timing of his swing after he hit just 17 of 56 total fairways and 42 of 72 greens in regulation. “The inconsistency of the timing of the swing (is a problem); he’s either down the fairway and then he misses the green or he’s in the rough,” Faldo said. “He’s got to go away for two weeks and work on that. If he comes back with
significant improvements at Riviera, then that’ll be the real positive sign.” Woods rated among the top 25 for scrambling around the greens and three-time Masters winner Faldo believes that is promising ahead of a scheduled major championship return at Augusta National. “He’s made great birdies on the par 5s, with great scrambling and his (putting) stroke is fantastic,” Faldo said. “He’s reading the greens really well. “He has scored great, but he hasn’t been close enough to the flag to say, ‘I should’ve been better’. “His proximity to the hole (needs to improve).” After his round, Woods praised his ability to grind out a score on the notoriously difficult course, despite his disastrous form off the tee. “I’m very pleased (with the week). After not playing for a couple years on the tour, they were four solid days, I fought hard for these scores,” he said. “They weren’t like drive (the ball) down the middle, hit it on the green, two putt ... there was a lot of fight.”

cott Pendlebury will captain Collingwood for a fifth-straight season after the star AFL midfielder was reelected to the position. The 30-year-old, who took over the role from premiership winner Nick Maxwell in 2014, will again be deputised by Steele Sidebottom. Taylor Adams, Lynden Dunn and Jeremy Howe make up the rest of the leadership group. Injury-prone forward Jamie Elliott was selected in an

ollingwood were fined $20,000 for failing to notify the AFL about an unlisted player before they began training with the Magpies. The AFL on Monday said half of the fine for breaching the
emerging leaders group, alongside Brodie Grundy, Brayden Maynard, Darcy Moore, Tom Langdon and Adam Treloar. “As we mature as a group, more players are willing to drive the behaviours that we are about as a side,” Pendlebury said. “The football program places a lot of trust in the individual and it’s up to us to display all the right behaviours and drive the standards behind closed doors to give us the best shot come match day.”
BUCKS WIN AGAIN IN NBA UNDER INTERIM COACH
G
iannis Antetokounmpo scored 27 points as the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Chicago Bulls 110-96 on Sunday to continue their revival under interim coach Joe Prunty. The All-Star forward added nine rebounds and eight assists to help the Bucks improve to 3-0 since Prunty replaced the fired Jason Kidd. Khris Middleton added 20 points and seven rebounds. Jason Terry came off the bench to score a season-high 12 points, nailing four of Milwaukee’s 13 3-pointers. Australian centre Thon Maker played 19 minutes for three points and five rebounds while Boomers guard Matthew Dellavedova contributed seven points, two rebounds and four assists. The Bucks used a big second
quarter to build a 19-point halftime lead, sending Chicago to their fourth straight loss. The Houston Rockets rode a balanced scoring attack to a 113-102 victory over the Phoenix Suns. All-Star guard James Harden finished with 27 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists while Chris Paul added 17 points and five assists for the Rockets. Suns guard Devin Booker finished with 31 points and 10 assists. Blake Griffin had 27 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Los Angeles Clippers to a 112-103 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans. The Clippers erased a 21-point first-half deficit and snapped the Pelicans’ four-game winning streak.
list lodgment rules has been suspended until October 31. Investigations manager Ken Wood said the club’s full cooperation in the inquiry and other mitigating factors were taken into account regarding the penalty.
FEDERER HUNGRY FISHINGREPORT TIDE TIMES FOR MORE AFTER OPEN TRIUMPH
POINT LONSDALE VICTOR WESTERN PORT– (STONY
Time
R
od Laver is urging sports fans to savour Roger Federer while they can, with the Swiss marvel admitting he has "no idea" how long he can continuing defying father time after adding to his legend with a record-equalling sixth Australian Open triumph. Federer can't believe he's the first man in tennis history to capture 20 grand slam singles crowns after his emotionfuelled 6-2 6-7 (5-7) 6-3 3-6 6-1
victory over Marin Cilic in the Melbourne Park final. "It's surreal," he said on Monday. Federer remains hungry for more but, turning 37 in August, the father of four is offering no promises because even he doesn't know what's around the corner. "Honest, I don't know. I have no idea," Federer said after becoming the oldest Open champion in 46 years.

AFLW SET FOR ‘MASSIVE’ IMPROVEMENT: DAVEY MONSTER IPL DEAL ‘LIFE CHANGING’: LYNN << cont. from back page...
“I have got to keep my body right because you don’t get paid if you don’t go,” Lynn said of his IPL deal. “I might go to Bunnings and get a crapload of cotton wool.” The 11th IPL tournament starts in April. “It’s not all about the money but it is life-changing,” Lynn said of his potential IPL windfall. “You never want to get too far ahead of yourself because if you are someone like Bernard Tomic you get shot down pretty quickly don’t you?” Lynn looked good with the bat upon his injury return for Brisbane, thrashing 21 off 13 balls with two sixes and two fours before being brilliantly caught by Marcus Harris. But Lynn wasn’t so convincing in the field. Mindful of his recovering calf and the shoulder issue, Lynn at one stage aborted his pursuit of the ball as it headed toward the boundary in the Renegades’ innings. “I thought about diving, then I thought about my shoulder, then my calf,” Lynn said. “Obviously I was a bit apprehensive out there but to get through that was the first step of hopefully a good stint on the field.” Lynn said he had kept in touch with Australian selectors and they were comfortable with his potential limitations in the field ahead of the T20 series. “They are comfortable with me not throwing or diving in the field - they know where my body is at,” he said. “I would have loved to have played a few more games to build confidence but it wasn’t to be. “But whether I am playing for Brisbane or Australia I will still be giving 100 per cent.”
F
ans should expect a “massive” improvement in the standard of play when the second AFLW season gets underway, Carlton skipper Brianna Davey says. The Blues will kick off the season on Friday night when they face Collingwood in a repeat of last year’s sellout at Princes Park. The inaugural season attracted bumper crowds, strong television ratings and plenty of goodwill from supporters eager to see female footballers finally given the chance to compete at an elite level. But while the likes of Daisy Pearce, Emma Kearney and best-and-fairest winner Erin Phillips provided plenty of highlights, there was a clear gulf between the marquee stars and other less-seasoned players. The low scoring in many games was also a talking point. There were six games in which the losing team finished with just one goal to their name, although four of these were in the opening round. None of this should come as a major surprise given the reduced length of AFLW
matches, the inexperience of many players and the fact most were forced to juggle training with other work commitments. But former Matildas goalkeeper Davey is predicting that with another preseason under their belts, the standard this year will be much higher. “You’ll see a massive difference, I’d say,” she told RSN radio on Monday. “Already, our list has improved from last year quite a lot. The talent of the girls has also improved, and the improvement has been massive in what I’ve seen. “Knowing a couple of the girls from other teams, I’m hearing pretty positive things about their girls, too. “Considering how many girls have now jumped on AFL and

ance Franklin and the majority of Sydney’s other big names are unlikely to feature in the inaugural AFLX competition, says Swans vicecaptain Dane Rampe. Defender Rampe may take part in the new, abbreviated format during the AFL pre-season but expects the Swans to field a mostly young line-up for next month’s tournament. “(Buddy’s) still getting back into full training, I dare say you won’t see him out there,” Rampe said on Monday.
are playing it, and how many girls are loving it, I think we’re going to continue to see an increase in the talent of the league and an improvement in the standard.” AFLW players secured an improved pay deal to better reflect their time spent training. The AFL Players Association intends to pursue a new agreement in 2019 when North Melbourne and Geelong field teams for the first time. Admission to games will remain free this season but that is likely to be revisited next year.

IPL deal ‘life changing’: Lynn
WOODS
HAS WORK TO DO ON SWING: FALDO
R
estricted in the field on his Big Bash League return, injury-plagued Chris Lynn has joked that he will stock up on cotton wool so he can cash in a “lifechanging” Indian Premier League deal. But Lynn said he didn’t want to be “someone like Bernard Tomic” and get too ahead of himself after being snapped up for a staggering $1.86 million at the IPL auction recently. Lynn admitted to some anxious moments in the field upon his return from a four-week calf injury in Brisbane Heat’s 26-run BBL loss to Melbourne

Renegades at the Gabba on Saturday night. He also admitted a shoulder issue that warranted surgery last year would not be 100 per cent for 12 months. Lynn backs himself to be ready for Australia’s upcoming Twenty20 international tri-series against England and New Zealand - and hopefully a mammoth IPL payday. Lynn was the highest-paid Australian in Saturday’s IPL auction after being bought by Kolkata Knight Riders, eclipsing speedster Mitchell Starc ($1.8 million).
