BN Co is almost seven million broadband activations short of its 2020 goal and will need more than the $29.5 billion committed to the project, its annual report says. Over the 2015/16 financial year there were just under 1.1 million NBN activations - well up on the 485,615 the previous year.

CHALLENGES AHEAD FOR NBN << ...cont. from front page

As well there were 2.9 million connections “ready for service”. However, NBN Co has set itself the goal of eight million activations by 2020, which chairman Ziggy Switkowski and chief executive Bill Morrow described in the report as "challenging". “The challenges should not be underestimated,” they said. “We remain convinced that the strategy of combining the most appropriate technologies to provide the fastest, most cost-effective rollout of the new network is the right one, but it is a strategy which commits the company to agility and a willingness to pivot fast as new and better processes and technologies emerge.” When the coalition government took power the strategy was changed from focusing on fibre to the premises to a “multitechnology mix” involving

fibre to the premises, fibre to the node, hybrid fibre coaxial, fixed wireless and satellite. Labor has described the project as one of Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s most “humiliating stuff-ups” of his first year in office. The government has so far pumped $20.3 billion into the project, out of a total commitment of $29.5 billion. The report said “additional funding” would be needed to complete the rollout and NBN was exploring the option of private sector debt funding. Over the year NBN Co generated total revenue of $421 million, up $257 million on the previous year, but expected a net loss after tax of $2.75 billion. The report said the main risks in coming years were meeting the “scale challenge”, managing partners in the design, construction and activation process and competition, revenue and regulations.

November and farmers need at least three weeks without rain to get machinery onto paddocks. No harvest equals no income for crop farmers. • Another issue is roads being washed away. Even if crops can be harvested, getting them to market might not be possible.

LIVESTOCK • Dairy farms already affected, with road closures leading to milk being dumped as farmers struggle to get stock out. • Besides drowning, prolonged wet hooves can maim or kill cattle, horses and sheep through conditions such as heel abscesses. • Mosquito population will boom and several flood-

related diseases puts livestock at risk. • Mouldy hay and contaminated silage can injure and kill livestock. • Horses in floods are vulnerable to fractures and skin conditions such as rainscald, mudfever and fungal infections. • Some farmers have been selling off livestock before and during the floods to reduce risk.

Soppy films ‘brings us together

atching emotional films and plays brings us closer together and can even boost our physical pain thresholds, scientists have shown. Researchers studying the effects of fiction on our emotions compared levels of endorphins released by people who had watched a sad film and those who had watched a less hard-hitting documentary. To measure the levels of the feel-good chemical, that increases pain tolerance, the team from Oxford University asked participants to do a wall-sit test and found that those who had watched the sad film could hold the physically taxing position for more than 13 per cent longer than they could before the film. On average, those who watched the documentary could only hold the position

for nearly 5 per cent less time on the second attempt. The wall-sit involves the participant holding an unsupported seated position with their back against the wall for as long as possible. The emotional film chosen was Stuart: A Life Backwards, telling the story of a disabled child abuse survivor who eventually commits suicide. Questionnaires answered by participants also showed that they felt a stronger bond with their fellow viewers than those in the group who watched the documentary. The study was part of the team’s investigation into why we often find ourselves transfixed by fiction, and whether the effects have any benefits. They say that, while folklore has been a culturally important way of passing on wisdom and values through generations of a community,

this does not explain why we return to the same stories to be entertained. Oxford professor of evolutionary psychology, Robin Dunbar, said the results suggested that our interest in emotive fiction may be because of its positive effect on social groups and our endorphin levels. “It seems that our affinity for emotive fiction may have evolved in the context of bonding social groups,” he said. “As we have also seen this endorphin effect in laughter, singing and dancing, it seems storytelling is part of a group of social activities that bring people together. “This is not to say that this one chemical effect alone is the only reason for dramatic fiction - there are other aspects of human psychology at work - but we believe that it is an important reason for our enjoyment of fiction.”

UK’S MI6 TO GET 40 PER CENT MORE SPIES

ritain’s foreign intelligence service is to get 40 per cent more spies in one of the biggest expansions since the Cold War as MI6 seeks to harness new technology, the BBC said. The Secret Intelligence Service, or MI6, will see its numbers increase to a little under 3,500 by 2020 from around 2,500, the BBC said, citing unidentified sources. MI6 does not disclose its staff numbers. MI6 chief Alex Younger said this week that the Islamist terrorist threat to the West would endure for years to come because simply taking back territory from Islamic State will not solve the deeper global fractures which have fostered militants. MI6 is tasked with defending Britain and its interests.

ore than 60 dogs gave cats a rest and instead chased waves during the eighth annual Surf City Surf Dog competition at Huntington Beach near Los Angeles. Dogs and their owners came from as far away as Australia and Brazil to compete in California on Sunday, with

more than 2,000 spectators, as the pets wore lifejackets and tried to avoid wiping out in the unusually high waves. The dogs competed individually or in tandem with their owner and were judged on a variety of skills, including the length of their ride and their confidence on the board.

NAKED DONALD TRUMP STATUE STOLEN IN MIAMI

olice in South Florida say they have a person of interest in the theft of a naked Donald Trump statue.

Miami police said on the department’s official Twitter account that the statue of the Republican presidential nominee was taken from the Wynwood arts district on Thursday. WSVN-TV reports security guards in Wynwood told police they saw a group of men loading the statue into a pick-up truck. A witness told investigators he took a picture of the truck as it left the neighbourhood. Police ran the license plate and are now looking for the registered owner of the truck. It is one of the life-sized naked Trump statue that artist collective INDECLINE installed around the country in August.

suburban house that starred onscreen as Harry Potter’s childhood home is on the market - complete with a cupboard under the stairs. Fans of the boy wizard will recognise 12 Picket Post Close as 4 Privet Drive, home of Harry’s dastardly aunt and uncle, the Dursleys. The couple grudgingly took Harry in after his parents were murdered and made him sleep in a cupboard under the stairs. The house in Bracknell, 50km west of London, was a location featured in the 2001 film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. A studio set of the house was built for later instalments of the eight-film series. Real estate agency Chancellors says the three-bedroom house “has recently undergone complete renovation to an extremely high standard.” It’s listed at a price of Stg475,000 ($A816,000.) Real estate agent Paul Bosanko said “the original plan was to take this

property to market without using any reference to Harry Potter.’’ But since news of the connection got out, interest has shot up, “and that may or may not influence the final price that we achieve at this property,’’ Bosanko said. Neighbour Karen Field said that the house still attracts Potter fans a decadeand-a-half after the film crews left. When the movie first came out, “there were tour buses, literally tour buses coming down the road,’’ Field said. “It’s a lot quieter now,’’ she said. “School holidays, you still get people coming along.’’

The episode that hooks viewers in and keeps at least 70 per cent of them watching until the end of the season has been identified in several of the shows streamed on Netflix, including this year’s runaway hit Stranger Things. But it wasn’t the first

episode in any case that kept people watching. The episode that took people from casual to committed viewers was frequently the third or fourth episode, and in most cases Australia was one episode behind the rest of the world. Australian audiences are clearly a little harder to please. A hooked episode was defined when 70 per cent of viewers who watched that episode went on to complete season one of the same series.

Australia not ‘getting screwed’: Netflix

Netflix executive has scoffed at a suggestion its subscribers in Australia, Europe and other parts of the globe receive inferior content compared with its American customers. Netflix chief financial officer David Wells, responding to a question at Goldman Sachs’ 25th Annual Communacopia Conference in New York on Tuesday, said it was “absolutely inaccurate”. “I think there is a general meme that whether it is a European consumer, an Australian consumer, an Asian consumer gets screwed relative to the US population,” Mr Wells said. The video streaming giant plans to spend $US5 billion ($A6.6 billion) on TV and movie offerings this year and another $US6 billion in 2017. “We want to continue growing the content library

both within the US and outside the US,” he said. “As long as we are able to grow our global subscriber population, we have a virtuous cycle there in terms of being able to find and monetise that content across a larger base, which then propels our ability to find more content and produce more content.” Mr Wells admitted there was not much the company could do to prevent subscribers sharing their passwords with friends or family outside their households to allow free access to Netflix. “If they don’t use it within the terms of use we’re unhappy about it,” he said. “There’s not a whole lot we can do. “We could crack down on it, but you wouldn’t certainly turn all those folks to paid users.”

Lethal Button Batteries Get Safety Code

ew safety measures are being introduced for potentially fatal button batteries to stop young children from swallowing them. Developed by a cross-section of businesses, a voluntary code has been drawn up to improve the safety of electronic toys and other goods, including watches and cameras, that are powered by the shiny, coin-sized lithium batteries. The code was developed in response to the alarming number of small children who are injured or killed after swallowing the batteries, which can get stuck in the throat and cause severe internal burns.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is urging retailers and other businesses to adopt the voluntary code, which includes design guidelines for electronic goods to make sure batteries can’t be accessed by young children. ACCC deputy chair Delia Rickard said 20 children are taken to Australian hospital emergency rooms each week because of button batteries, which are often mistaken for lollies. “Children under the age of five are at the greatest risk,” she said in a statement on Monday. “If they get their hands on one of the many products in the home that contain

showcase of new AI (artificial intelligence) developments is the focus of the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) which has started in Taipei. About 700 people, mostly gaming and robotics developers, attended the opening day of the conference, an epa journalist reports. NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang delivered presentations on Wednesday, which included demonstrating such AI applications as self-driving cars and 3D virtual reality (VR) glasses. Huang played a video of the BB8 self-driving car in the United States, which partly included images from the perspective of the electronic

eye inside the vehicle that uses NVIDIA’s AI technology. The video shows the system’s initially flawed driving but then “after 3,000 miles of learning” a passenger is able to play with his mobile phone while the car drives faultlessly along roads and highways. Huang also demonstrated the HTC VR glasses showing the inside of an office, and explained that this technology can be used both for gaming and engineering purposes. The GPU Taipei conference is one of eight GTC events scheduled across Asia, Australia and the United States running through to early December.

button batteries they can get the batteries out unless the compartments containing the batteries are secured. “This new code is an important step towards ensuring children cannot access the batteries, thereby reducing the risk that they will swallow them.” The code comes amid growing concerns about the number of children inadvertently coming into contact with the tiny batteries. A Queensland coroner in 2015 recommended small batteries be plastic coated following an inquest into the death of four-year-old Sunshine Coast girl Summer Steer, who swallowed a 2cm lithium battery in 2013. The code sets out several

safety measures, including design guidelines for electronic goods to make sure batteries can’t be accessed by young children. The code recommends battery compartments be secured by a screw or bolt that requires a tool to open it, or the compartment requires two or more independent and simultaneous actions to remove its cover. It also urges retailers to consider whether to sell goods containing button batteries, and if they do, to make sure goods comply with the new safety requirements and warn shoppers about the potential hazards to children.

QLD TO MAKE WORLD FIRST SOLAR ELECTRIC CAR

risbane could be home to the world’s first solar electric cars after the opening of a new manufacturing workshop. Clenergy Team Arrow, Australia’s premier solar racing team, unveiled the work hub and car design at Eagle Farm on Monday, with the goal of having the car road registered by October next year. “We’ve already had a couple of orders placed,” Clenergy Team Arrow’s founder Cameron Tuesley told AAP. Tuesley said the car will be tested on roads with the aim of having it ready to compete in the 2017 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge in Darwin.

“From there we will start to manufacture them,” he said. Queensland Energy Minister Mark Bailey was at the unveiling and reiterated the Palaszczuk government’s commitment to renewable energy sources.

QUEUES IN JAPAN FOR POKEMON GO PLUS

undreds of people have stood in long lines outside Japanese stores to buy the Pokemon GO Plus device. In Osaka City, around 700 people waited outside a Pokemon Centre shop to buy the device when the store opened at 8 am, two hours earlier than usual. Pokemon GO Plus allows Pokemon GO players to interact with the mobile game without looking at the phone. “(Using the peripheral gear), Pokemon hunting will speed up because I don’t have to stare at the (Smartphone) screen. I want to get them (Pokemon monsters) one after another,” said Kana Sugiura, 29, who was waiting outside

the store, to Japanese news agency Kyodo. Pokemon GO Plus is a gadget similar to a wristwatch but attached with a clip that connects to the game. The device, which costs around $US35 ($A47), is connected to the mobile phone via Bluetooth, and through a led light (green or blue) and vibrations notify the player when there is a ‘poke stop’ or a Pokemon nearby, which can then be captured by pressing the device button without any need for the phone. The peripheral add-on is available from Friday in most countries - including Australia, said game developer Niantic in a statement.

AUSSIES ARE USING TECH TO TONE-UP

ersonal trainers are being traded in for tablet workouts with the simple click of a button an easy and cheap means for fitness inspiration, new research has found. More than half of Australians surveyed by nbn say they would use the internet to help improve their training techniques, research nutrition and map out their fitness progress. Almost two thirds of those who hop online for fitness inspiration watch online video tutorials and 48 per cent find themselves drawn in to researching the latest fitness trends. Whether it is a stiletto aerobics workout streamed in from Brazil or the latest Hollywood trend in soulcycling, Aussies are opting for a wealth of online information ready at their fingertips. The research also found 62 per cent of Aussies prefer to train in their own living room than at the gym,

with the majority admitting cost is a major influence. Broadband network nbn is teaming up with fitness expert and chiropractor Tim Robards to create a series of virtual trainer training films. The 30-minute long routines, ranging from animalistic moves to Bollywood inspired dancing, are designed to be streamed from the comfort of home living rooms. “The workouts are designed to give busy, onthe-go Aussies no matter where they are, the chance to connect with health and fitness expertise online from the comfort of their home,” Mr Robards said. “They will get you growling, stretching and sweating all at the same time.” Yoga, weight training methods and pilates are the top three online fitness clicks with millennials, survey respondents aged 18-34, the most inclined

“The most important thing is to keep challenging your body with new skills and routines, as well as keeping it fun and fresh in ways that work for you.”

hark sightings, floods, fires, earthquakes, tsunamis, and water safety warnings will be sent to users of a new Victorian emergency app to be released in time for summer. VicEmergency will replace the FireReady app beginning in November, which will link to the website and provide timely information to users across the state. “The app will provide the

community with warnings and incident notifications that are tailored to individual locations and watch zones,” Emergency Commissioner Craig Lapsley said in a statement. The FireReady app, released six years ago, helped with the evacuation of residents during the Wye River Christmas Day fire that destroyed at least 116 houses.

PERRY FINDS SHOW HARD WITHOUT PAL DAWSON T

wo years on from Charlotte Dawson’s death, her friend and Australia’s Next Top Model colleague Alex Perry says it’s been hard filming the series without her. During the ninth season of the show, which filmed last year, a succession of guest judges including Megan Gale and Kelly Osbourne were brought in instead of one permanent judge, out of respect for Dawson. “I felt her absence acutely last season,” Perry told AAP. “It was not fun. I was so used to looking down the other end of the desk and she’d look at me with a glint in her eye, or I’d be a bit cheeky, and we knew that we were going to do something. “If I was going to say `I love this girl’, she’d say `Well, I don’t like her’ - it was almost like we were going to play, so I kind of lost my playmate in that sense,” he said.

Dawson had been a judge on the Fox8 show alongside Perry. In 2014, Dawson took her own life after a battle with depression and after becoming a target of bullies on social media. “She really copped that, that online cyberbullying, and just verbal abuse ... and it really affected her and it was a big part in what plagued her,” Perry said. The designer said he thinks the online trolls and cyberbullies who targeted Dawson were partly responsible for her death, and should be held accountable. “I hate those people that did that because it’s like `You know what, you didn’t finish her off but you had a really big part in it, and you are culpable, you really are’,” he said.

“What I say might sound a bit brutal to those people but I’m like `You know what you deserve, you need to be accountable for your actions’.” Australia’s Next Top Model’s 10th season is about to premiere and Megan Gale has been brought in as the first permanent judge since Dawson’s death. The model was a friend of Dawson’s which gives Perry some comfort. “It was like somebody who loved her was sitting in for her,” he said. Gale also matches Perry for cheekiness and as friends

they can be very honest with each other. Along with host Jennifer Hawkins, it seems anything goes between the three of them. “We’re mates, so we can say anything to each other,” he said. * Australia’s Next Top Model returns on Tuesday at 7.30pm (AEST) on FOX8.

NEWTON-JOHN MAKES ALBUM TO HELP WITH LOSS

livia Newton-John is releasing a collaborative album, Liv On, to help people dealing with loss and illness. The singer revealed on Nine’s 60 Minutes show on Sunday how difficult it was to lose her own partner, Patrick McDermott, who went missing off a fishing boat in California in 2005. “It was very hard. He was lost at sea and nobody really knows what happened,” Newton-John told Nine.

Newton-John is also a breast cancer survivor and is joined on the album by US singer Beth Nielsen Chapman and Canadian singer-songwriter Amy Sky, who have both dealt with their own losses and illnesses. The three women wrote and recorded the eleventrack album to help others transcend their loss and find meaning and hope. “As a group, it’s our intention with this album to create songs with a message of compassion and hope,” Newton-John said.

“They are for anyone facing a time of challenge in their life, whether it is grieving a loss - or on the journey to health and recovery.” The title song on the album Liv On will be a part of a new digital campaign for the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre (ONJ Centre) in which people touched by cancer are encouraged to share their stories and experiences to help others. A music video for Liv On, shot at Newton-John’s

home, will be released featuring the singer’s family and friends. *Liv On the album will be released on October 7

Akmal uncensored A

kmal returns to Chelsea Heights Hotel this month because owes a lot of money and the debt collectors have promised that if payment isn’t made they will break his legs which he needs to perform stand-up comedy successfully. His return coincides with the unprecedented popularity of small men of Middle Eastern appearance that’s sweeping the country. Remember, if you go and see any other comedian, then the terrorists have won. Known for his incredible ability to deal with hot

topics in a hilarious and slightly offensive way, Akmal promises this year to deliver a show that is punctual and jam-packed with words…some of which he will be using for the first time. One of Australia’s most respected and accomplished comics, Akmal draws on his Arabic heritage, his experiences immigrating to Australia at the age of 11, and his disillusionment with religion and the modern world to deliver a stand-up show that is fresh, honest and ridiculously funny. Saleh entered the world

of comedy in 1990 under the alias Peter Saleh (“so people would think I was white”, he says). Since then he’s performed in movies, on TV and as a regular radio and talk show host, and has written a book about his journey from Egypt and his life as an Arab on the Australian comedy circuit. As a stand-up he’s performed at Festivals all around the world including Edinburgh, and has won numerous awards, including an ARIA for his DVD Live and Uncensored. This year, for the first time

in history, he’s promising to appear in high definition 3D (glasses not provided though). Witness Akmal at Chelsea Heights Hotel on Friday October 14. Tickets on sale now from the venue and Moshtix. Visit Chelseaheightshotel.com.au for details.

VIRGO You will have to face your financial issues now and that demands an honest analysis. Don’t bury the facts but make sure you take steps to avoid complications. Reevaluate your lifestyle, create a budget and stick with it. Fortunately, you’re unstoppable when it comes to pursuing your passions LIBRA You no longer need to adjust to others like you’ve already been doing. It’s time to be direct and assertive, say what you want and do what you want to do. This way you can also receive love on your conditions. You don’t have to look for it because it will find you SCORPIO Money is just flowing away like water and this worries you. Adjust your expectation and trust that your ability to work hard will get you through this. Make sure you’re getting everything that you’re entitled to though. Ask for a raise if you feel that you’re overworked and underpaid SAGITTARIUS You’re in the middle of choosing what is beneficial for you and what is beneficial for others. It’s okay to pursue your own way as long as you keep other people in mind as well. Find the middle ground, Sagittarius. You have been working on realizing a dream for such a long time and your loved one can be very supportive CAPRICORN Things aren’t going great at the moment and you can’t just blame your partner for it. It takes two to tango, so admit it or not you have a fault in this too. The key is to add some water to the wine and control your urge to be independent a bit

LEO Your love life will get a boost this week. If you are single, this could be the end of your search for true love because he/she is just lurking in the corner. Coupled Leos are inspired to pursue their loved ones again. You’re in the mood to spice up each moment you’re together

Psychic Readings from Genuine Psychics

CANCER Make sure love is a priority this week, Cancer. Solo ones need to stay open for serendipity. If you’re in a relationship, start talking about marriage or plotting an exciting new chapter of your life. In terms of career, there is an opportunity heading your way that you shouldn’t miss out on

PISCES If you’re looking for a steady base for your love life, you may need to wait a little bit longer because that may not happen very soon. Just enjoy what you have, Pisces. What matters is that you love each other. The weekend is great to get rid of all the clutter

7 5

GEMINI Relationships are in the spotlights this week. If you’re in a relationship, you are comfortable with your loved one and though you have some arguments every now and then, you know that he/she is always there for you. Make things extra cosy and appreciate your partner more

AQUARIUS Power struggle can happen this week and it’ll not be a good sight if it is with your partner. Be flexible in your reactions, Aquarius. The problem is that you demand too much from each other without considering the fact that your partner also has limitation just like yourself. If you’re single, don’t be in a rush to find “the one”

TRAILER RELEASED FOR RED DOG FILM PREQUEL

he Red Dog film prequel is as true blue as it is new, with a hoard of homegrown talent gathering to tell the backstory of the loveable Australian canine. The official trailer for the highly-anticipated flashback flick, Red Dog: True Blue, was released recently. Director Kriv Stenders, producer Nelson Woss and writer Daniel Taplitz have reunited for the film, returning to the remote setting of the 2011 original the Pilbara region of Western Australian. It is here young Australian actor Levi Miller, in the role of 11-year-old Mick, arrives to live on a cattle station owned by his grandfather, played by Bryan Brown. Fellow Aussies Justine

Clarke, Hanna Mangan Lawrence and Thomas Cocquerel join British actor Jason Isaacs in the cast for the coming-of-age prequel while canine crew member Phoenix takes centre stage. Koko, the Australian kelpie star of the first film, died from heart disease in Perth in 2012, while Red Dog actors Josh Lucas and Rachael Taylor will not reappear due to the story's timeline. The release, from Roadshow Films and Good Dog Distribution, is among a number of films to receive financial support from the state's Royalties for Regions program, including mysterydrama Jasper Jones (2016). * Red Dog: True Blue opens in Australian cinemas on December 26

BASEBALL REACTS TO DEATH OF YOUNG STAR

the masses A

rnold Palmer brought a country-club sport to the masses with a hard-charging style, charisma and a commoner's touch. At ease with both presidents and the golfing public, and on a first-name basis with both, ``The King,'' died Sunday in Pittsburgh. He was 87. Alastair Johnson, CEO of Arnold Palmer Enterprises, confirmed that Palmer died Sunday afternoon of complications from heart problems. Palmer ranked among the most important figures in golf history, and it went well beyond his seven major championships and 62 PGA Tour wins.

His good looks, devilish grin and go-for-broke manner made the elite sport appealing to one and all. And it helped that he arrived about the same time as television moved into most households, a perfect fit that sent golf to unprecedented popularity. Beyond his golf, Palmer was a pioneer in sports marketing, paving the way for scores of other athletes to reap in millions from endorsements. Some four decades after his last PGA Tour win, he ranked among the highestearners in golf. On the golf course, Palmer was an icon not for how often he won, but the way he did it.

ajor League Baseball is mourning the loss of one of the game's brightest young stars, Miami Marlins All-Starf. Fernandez, 24, was killed in a boating accident near Miami Beach early on Sunday. The Marlins cancelled their scheduled game against the Atlanta Braves. Fernandez made three unsuccessful attempts to defect from Cuba and was jailed before finally reaching the United States and attending high school in Florida. He was drafted in 2011 and voted National League Rookie of the Year in 2013. New York Mets manager Terry Collins refused baseball questions on Sunday morning in his pregame press conference, saying he would only talk about Fernandez, whose infections spirit made him popular with fans and peers alike. "This one hits you in the stomach," said Collins, who remembers when Fernandez made his major league debut in 2013 at Citi Field, allowing one earned run in five innings. "When the first pitch left his hand, the first thought was 'Oh, wow, this is something special,'" Collins said.

"I was telling the guys this morning, he was here for the All-Star game when the game was here in Citi Field, and he treated our staff in our kitchen with tremendous respect and he was only 20 or 21 years old at the time. Very, very polite." An outpouring of condolences came in from around the league: "It's sad, a very sad day," New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi. "You think about all the people's lives that this affects and how difficult it must be down there right now. "It must be awful. I don't know how you ever get over it. It affects the whole community, families. "It's going to affect people who didn't even know him, just because of his ability to pull the community together and what he had been through in his life and how important he was down there." David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox: "It's a tragedy for baseball. Jose was a star on the field but was an even better person. Rest in peace, my friend." Detroit Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias, who is from Havana, Cuba, was removed from the lineup Sunday after learning of Fernandez's death.

FISHINGREPORT

napper, snapper and more snapper. Westernport is lighting up with numerous amounts of pinkies and snapper up to 8kg. As September nears to an end, this phenomenal start to the season has already been discussed as a great indicator for a good quality snapper season to come. This sign of excitement has woken up anglers of all sorts while providing enjoyment for all that are prepared and ready. However, Westernport isn’t the only body of water providing the goods. Port Phillip bay as per usual is offering some paramount snapper fishing with light outfits and small soft plastics and or hard body lures. Swarming the inshore reefs of Port Phillip bay are plagues of 25-40cm pinkies providing fun for kids and casual anglers. An important tip to finding these schools of fish is finding structure (reef) and or simply sounding up the fish themselves. It’s common to see these school fish stacked up in the water column. As far as what bay to focus on early season, Westernport has so far produced more fish around the 4-7kg mark whereas Port Philip has producing more pinkies. The choice is yours. Other species to target late September have proved to be the beloved Southern calamari mainly schooling up in pods of 4-8 on the banks of Westernport and in close around the cliffs of Mt Martha and Mornington over in Port Phillip bay. During the change of tide has proved to be the ideal bite time for

Westernport as first and last light is providing the better bite time for Port Phillip. Both areas have been providing large quantities with the bigger cephalopods coming from Westernport. The notorious Gummy shark has been a majorly popular species over winter due to the substantial amounts of these sly sharks feeding in areas like Balnarring and Somers of Westernport. Port Phillip of late has also produced its very own fair share of big/small gummy’s with some anglers bagging out with 6kg+ fish. This is great to see and offers great opportunities for Port Phillip based anglers. Finding these key areas in Port Phillip may however take a bit of time and local knowledge. The next species to target soon will be the profound King George whiting. The water temperature still being quite low is preventing feeding frenzies from these great eating and fighting fish in Westernport. Although, it won’t be too much longer for the temp to increase and for the whiting to fire up. Despite this, Port Phillip bay have been managing to produce these fish reasonably consistantly. Considering the time, this is very early and another good sign of a good season ahead for Port Phillip bay So now is a good time to get your boat on the water, indulge in the sun and take advantage of the great fishing we have right at our doorstep. Good luck to everyone who gets out there! -Todd

MONEY OVE OF STORM W

ith just 80 minutes remaining in the NRL, rugby-bound winger Marika Koroibete admits he's only leaving the Melbourne Storm for money. Sunday's NRL grand final against Cronulla will be the Fijian flyer's last match with the Storm after signing with the Melbourne Rebels Super Rugby team. While his heart may still say Storm, his head said rugby union, with the massive joint offer from the Rebels and Australian Rugby Union, who view him as a future Wallaby, too good to refuse.

"I'd like to have stayed," Koroibete said after the Storm's gripping 14-12 preliminary final win over Canberra. "I have to look after the family, especially back home (in Fiji). "It's a business decision; but if they gave me a good offer I would have stayed." Koroibete was involved in the game-changing play of the AAMI Park game, cutting through the Raiders defence and racing 70 metres. Canberra fullback Jack Wighton was sin-binned for a professional foul as the Storm winger looked for a quick play-the-ball, and

Brought to you by:

ustralian veteran Penny Taylor has starred for the Phoenix Mercury, helping them defeat New York Liberty 101-94 to book a spot in the WNBA semi-finals. The 35-year-old Taylor, who is playing her final year of basketball after first being drafted in the WNBA in 2001, scored 20 points to advance to a five-game series against the powerful Minnesota Lynx. It was a massive win for the eighth-seeded Mercury against the No.3 Liberty.

ER LOVE Melbourne took advantage of the Raiders being down a man with Cheyse Blair scoring less than a minute later. Koroibete also pulled off a big hit on Raiders winger Jordan Rapana, who after taking a Blake Green kick, was driven back into the ingoal by the 23-year-old. In the ensuing set Storm halfback Cooper Cronk came up with his team's opening try. Kororibete said it was tough to leave the club who kick-started his career after signing him from Wests Tigers mid-season in 2014 where he was languishing in the NSW Cup. "Even today was a bit emotional, playing my last home game," he said. "Playing in the grand final next week will mean a lot to me."

stars in WNBA win Guard Diana Taurasi led the way for the Mercury with 30 points, while three-time WNBA title winner Taylor also had five rebounds and two assists to go with her points haul. Awaiting the Mercury are the top-ranked Lynx, who finished the regular season record of 28-6. Minnesota has beaten the Mercury in all three of their clashes this season and the enormity of the task isn't lost on Taurasi. "They are the best in the league right now,'' Taurasi said. "They are the defending

champs. We know what they do. They know what we do. It's going to be a battle of wills more than anything. Right now we're finding our groove, finding who we are.'' With Phoenix clinging to a two-point lead early in the fourth quarter, Taurasi scored five straight points in a 10-2 run that gave them an 84-76 advantage. New York refused to quit, hitting back-to-back threes to get within two at 84-82. But that's as close as the Liberty would get as they came up empty on the next few possessions.

PATTON RUES GIANTS NEAR MISS << cont. from back page...

BOMBERS STAR MERRETT SIGNS NEW DEAL

ssendon have signed Zach Merrett until the end of 2021, locking away the gun 20-year-old who carried the Bombers through one of its most difficult AFL seasons. The 2016 best-and-fairest winner, who has quickly become one of the Bombers' most important players

since debuting in 2014, has signed a three-year contract extension. "It's exciting to see Zach commit to the club long term, he is an important part of our future and we look forward to watching him grow as player and leader," coach John Worsfold said on Monday.

had never finished higher than 11th, Patton made it clear the Giants weren't satisfied. "It's been an amazing season, to go from not playing finals at all and not even really being in contention to getting to a preliminary final," Patton said. "It's a good effort, but we all had one goal and we didn't get that. "It was a good year, but we were almost there. "We've just got to buckle up for next year and remember this feeling. "We'll just learn from it and to get ready for a big preseason." GWS had only five

goalkickers against the Bulldogs, a marked contrast with the multiple scoring threats they had through the season. Jeremy Cameron (53) Toby Greene (44) and Steve Johnson (43) were prolific contributors, with Patton, Rory Lobb (29) and Tom Scully (23) chipping in regularly. Cameron topped the Giants' goal-kicking list for the fifth time in as many years of their AFL existence. But in contrast with his game-breaking effort in the qualifying final win over Sydney, Cameron wasn't a factor on Saturday, kicking just 0.1 and tallying only five disposals and one mark.
