HE’S the pet we’ve all wished was ours for an incredible 61 years.

A fluff y, oversized bundle of adorable, the old English Sheepdog has been the brand mascot for Dulux paint that’s melted the hearts of many for decades.

The first Dulux dog was called, Shepton

Daphnis Horsa, nicknamed Dash and he was followed by the most famous of all, Fernville Lord Digby.

There have been 12 more in the UK since then with names like Gambit, King Hotspur of Amblegait, Dreamweaver Lorien’s Lament (Pickle for short) and Duke.

This week in Dubbo, the Australian Dulux Dog, ‘Chaz’ made a special appearance to the delight of visitors, at Petrie’s Mitre 10 as part of a Dulux Paint Jellybean promotion.

Early offers for future CSU students

CHARLES Sturt University in Dubbo have released more than 5000 early entry offers to students to study at the campus next year.

There have been more than double applications since last year, according to an ABC report.

Administration director Peter Greening said making offers available to students before HSC starts, encourages some students to perform better in their exams.

“Once you take that little bit of pressure away of that one number that will summarise 13 years of schooling, some of those students are able to perform better than they thought they would because they have a course lined up for next year,” Mr Greening said.

FEATHER IN THE BEER FOR LOCAL BREWERY

By JOHN RYAN

DEVILS Hollow Brewery has received a Bronze Medal at the Independent Brewers Association’s Awards for 2022, the local brewery’s Black Horn amber dark beer scoring the gong.

The Black Horn is a popular drink at the Brewery and no doubt local connoisseurs who haven’t sampled it will be lining up to test their palates.

Brewery Manager and co-owner Ceridwyn Usback said Devils Hollow was incredibly appreciative to all the loyal customers who had supported the Brewery through recent difficult times.

“Our beer brewer, Matt, has done a fantastic job to put us in this position so early in our development,” she said.

“To be recognised by our peers and the industry judges is a great reward for our hard work over the last year.”

Beer Brewer Matt Devenish said he was very proud of his achievement and looks forward to exciting times in the sector.

“This Black Horn beer was named after the Rhinos at Taronga Western Plains Zoo and I hope that our brewery and beer will become a major and iconic Dubbo and regional tourist attraction just like the zoo,” he said.

The Independent Beer Awards are the largest in Australia and this year had a record number of entries. A total of 1458

beers were judged from 207 breweries across the country.

Dubbo Photo News wins four state newspaper awards

Beekeepers impacted by Varroa mite eligible for reimbursement

REGISTERED commercial beekeepers impacted by Varroa mite in the surveillance (purple) zones are eligible for reimbursement payments under the agreed National Response Plan.

Minister for Agriculture Dugald Saunders said despite not having to eradicate hives, beekeepers in the surveillance zones have suffered financial impacts.

“When we first saw an incursion of the Varroa mite in NSW, we immediately initiated a hive stand still for beekeepers in the eradication and surveillance zones,” Mr Saunders said.

“This means that commercial beekeepers have been unable to move their hives to other parts of the state to take part in pollination activities, which has greatly impacted the business operations of many.

“We understand that the payments will not cover the full costs incurred but will give commercial beekeepers options.”

Local Aboriginal languages to be taught in classrooms

DUBBO Photo News won four of the 15 awards presented at the annual Country Press NSW conference last Friday – including Best Free Newspaper.

Managing Director Tim Pankhurst and Sales Manager Donna Falconer attended Country Press NSW’s 122nd Conference and Awards Night in Sydney. Founded in 1900, Country Press NSW is Australia’s oldest newspaper industry association.

Dubbo Photo News also won the ‘Best Sports Photograph’ category for a stunning photo by Mel Pocknall taken during a Roos v Orange City rugby match in April.

The judges were very impressed with Mel’s work, saying: “The image

displays the essence of sport. The determination of both players is clear. It is an image that sums up the match, leaving the reader no doubt which team was triumphant on the day.”

Dubbo Photo News won ‘Best Front Page’ for our May 25 edition which reported community concerns over school zone safety on Sheraton Road.

Just to prove that sometimes a simple idea and message can be a winner, our regular “Everyone reads Dubbo Photo News” full page ads won the ‘Best House Advertisement’ category.

The ceremony finished with the naming of the ‘Best Free Newspaper’ and ‘Best Paid Newspaper’

awards – Dubbo Photo News won the ‘Best Free’ while the Narrabri Courier won the latter.

Other newspapers and journalists from our region were also recognised on the night.

Narromine Star journalist Sharon Bonthuys was named ‘Journalist of the Year’, while Tahlia Sinclair was high commended in the ‘Best News Story’ category for her work at the Nyngan Weekly. The Narromine Star was highly commended in the ‘Best Paid Newspaper’ category.

Donna Falconer said she was both proud and grateful for the awards.

“Dubbo Photo News began in 2005, so these four awards felt like very fitting recognition for more

than 17 years of hard work by many wonderful local people.

“One of the key messages of the conference was that local newspapers that remain independent and locally owned continue to succeed and be valued by local people. Regional newspapers are the heart and soul of our communities,” Donna said.

“What would Dubbo be without Dubbo Photo News? Everyone reads Dubbo Photo News!” she added.

The conference was attended by newspaper proprietors and managers from across the state who said that, while the Covid lockdowns proved to be an extraordinarily challenging time for the in-

dustry, the past two years have cemented the value of a local newspaper as the primary and trusted source for local news and information for everyone who chooses to live in regional NSW.

Awards were presented by Member for Barwon Roy Butler and NSW Deputy Premier Paul Toole.

NSW STUDENTS will have the opportunity to learn Aboriginal languages following the release of a new Aboriginal Languages syllabus.

With more than 35 Aboriginal languages and 100 dialects in the state, students will learn native languages and culture in their local area from 2024.

The syllabus will be taught from kindergarten to year 10 students.

Schools will be asked to involve local Aboriginal communities to share knowledge when introducing and teaching the syllabus.

Minister for Aboriginal Affairs Ben Franklin said Aboriginal students have a right to learn their own language at school.

“Empowering young Aboriginal people to maintain a strong sense of identity, belonging and culture and learn more about Aboriginal languages is hugely beneficial to their overall education and outcomes,” Mr Franklin said.

NSW Deputy Premier Paul Toole presented the award for ‘Best Free Newspaper’ to Donna Falconer and Tim Pankhurst on behalf of Dubbo Photo News.

DRIVE IN DRIVEN OFF

By JOHN RYAN

CRANES, cherry pickers, front end loaders, excavators, Manitous and trucks descended on the West View Drive In last Saturday as a group of passionate locals raced against the rain – and a deadline – to remove the giant screen from the site so it can be redeveloped.

The screen has been moved to a safe location while the group works to get funding and approvals to get it rebuilt and operating in the local area.

Well done to all who made this progress possible.

CANCER: You’ll have the opportunity to find a property that will give your whole family more space. You’ll streamline your daily routine to make life easier for everyone living under your roof.

INTERNATIONAL award-winning pianist Alexander Gadjiev will be playing at the Macquarie Conservatorium on Friday, October 21, at 7.30pm.

Mr Gadjiev was the first prize winner of the 2021 Sydney International Piano

Competition.

Debuting his first concert at 9-years-old, Mr Gadjiev has performed across Europe as a concerto soloist with major orchestras.

In 2021, Mr Gadjiev won second prize and the Krystian Zimerman Prize for the best performance of a Sonata

at the 18th Chopin competition in Warsaw.

Director Vivenne Winther is thrilled to have Mr Gadjiev perform in Dubbo.

“The Sydney has a longstanding commitment to bringing their prize-winning artists to regional audiences around Australia, and it’s

wonderful that music-lovers in Dubbo can see and hear a pianist of this calibre in concert,” Ms Winther said.

“In his Dubbo concert, Alexander Gadjiev performs romantic works by Chopin, including the virtuosic Sonata in B flat minor – not to be missed!”

Students will ‘stand tall’ in Dubbo

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

FOUNDED by two mums, Jeanine Treharne and Angela Farr-Jones, Stand Tall is a charity organisation running events, workshops and online modules focusing on the mental health of Australian youth.

The Stand Tall Dream Again Regional Tour will be heading to Dubbo on Thursday, November 3, at the Dubbo Showground for local schools.

The event will provide necessary skills of resilience, strength and motivation to 2000 students across the Dubbo region, according to organisers.

There will be multiple speakers and performers at the event, including Bella Taylor Smith, Jason Owen, Michael Crossland and Glen Gerreyn.

The two mums started the organisation because they noticed the mental health of their children and children’s friends was not supported.

“We knew of too many teenag-

ers that have been lost to suicide,” Mrs Treharne said.

“Angie’s children had been to more funerals than Angie had.”

Through their travels, the mothers noticed a lack of discussion when it came to young people and their mental health.

HSC exams begin

By JOHN RYAN

THE culmination of 13 years’ schooling hit home for 138 Dubbo College Year 12 students when they sat down to take the English 1 paper last week, the first of the exams for the 2022 Higher School Certificate (HSC).

Manti Morse, relieving as the Head Teacher English, believed the paper was a fair exam and that the local students had prepared well.

“There was a wide array of textual forms in the short answers, the students will be happy to see this,” Ms Morse said.

Meanwhile, Rebecca Brown was excited to see a local representation in the exam texts.

“It was wonderful to see a local photographer being represented in the visual text.” Miss Brown said, with Clancy Paine (nee Clancy Job – a former photographer for Dubbo Photo News) having her ‘Dust Storm Daisy’ photograph utilised.

English Teacher Brad Garland was also happy with the paper, considering the disruptions to this cohort.

“It’s still really important to recognise this cohort of students did have hurdles, with disruptions in their early year 12 studies and in the build-up to formal study processes.”

“They definitely haven’t had a stereotypical run at the HSC” he said.

Year 12 student Lauren Priddis was pleased with her efforts in the lead up to the exams.

“I found it super easy to prepare for, and to adapt my essay to the question,” she said, “I knew my essay, I worked hard, and did lots of practice papers. The feedback from my teachers has really helped too.”

Lauren’s looking forward to a gap year in 2023 to give herself a break, and then hopes to complete a Bachelor of Veterinary Science.

Hugh Olney is thinking about a career in either carpentry or paramedicine and said he found the exam quite good.

“The short answers were really good, probably because of the broad themes they entailed, like paradoxes and duality of the human condition,” he said.

Likewise, the essay question

“We realised young role models are more powerful and impactful to teenagers than their parents and teachers are at that age,” Mrs Treharne said.

“We wanted to combine young role models and make the event a fun day and an opportunity for

people to hear about life changing messages.”

Mrs Treharne said a moment she remembers clearly is when a Year 11 student told her that he knew he would get better after attending an event in Sydney.

“Hearing that makes the hard

work worthwhile,” she said.

“It’s very inspiring and we want to make young people feel valued.

“Being around for ten years, we have grown so much, and we always find ourselves pioneering onto the next stage.”

Holding their first regional tour, Stand Tall plans to reach as many young Australians as possible.

“We want to make sure people value themselves and the country they live in as it is part of their identity,” Mrs Treharne said.

“We want to make a strong and prosperous action.”

Reflecting on the impacts of Covid, Mrs Treharne said young people have missed a lot of opportunities and have felt demoralised over the past two years.

“Throughout the event we want to offer a sense of hope, purpose and perspective to the audience and share a message of light,” she said.

The Dubbo event and previous Stand Tall livestreams are available on the website for people who are unable to attend the event.

was what Hugh expected, noting the ease of adaptation to prepared essays.

“The teachers support through the holidays was handy, they helped to improve our thought processes, and how best to articulate our point.”

“The efforts of our teachers have been valuable, including Ms. Farquhar, who relocated recently to the South Coast and has remained accessible and interested in our journey.

“It’s tough when you’re not at school to stay motivated, to keep your study structure; the teachers have helped us set up a structure and are always challenging our ideas – it’s really handy to have that support. Not just in English, but across all subjects,” he said.

Ashley Steele aspires to be a radiographer and says although she struggled with timing, she did like the essay question and was able to complete it.

“Our year group didn’t get ex-

posed to year 11 exit exams. Year 12 trials were our first time sitting formal exams for an extended time,” she said, thanking both her teachers and her peers for all their assistance.

“All the support after trials, the use of google classrooms, holiday tutorials and study sessions – it all helped.”

“We were well supported on how to improve, and well prepared for the HSC.”

A community hall celebration reveals Bodangora’s colourful past

John Mason served as the Member for the state electorate of Dubbo from 1965 to 1981. Now in his 90s, Mr Mason was encouraged by his family to write a series of short stories of his memories of his time in this region. Those stories appear in his new book called “People, Places, Predicaments: Tales From the Life of John Mason” which will be officially launched tomorrow (Friday, October 21) by current Mayor Mathew Dickerson. The public is invited to attend the launch at the Western Plains Cultural Centre at 2.30pm. With Mr Mason’s permission, Dubbo Photo News brings you one of the stories from his book. Note that this story has one “PG-rated” moment!

By JOHN MASON

WHEN you visit Wellington, 33 kilometres east of Dubbo, there are various road signs that bear the name Bodangora. It is hard to imagine that once you would be passing through a busy township boasting a population of about 7000 people! That was because Bodangora was once the site of one of the largest gold mines in Australia.

This was in those high days when Australia was attracting people from all over the world who had caught the bug called “Gold Fever”.

One of the reasons of the high population was because over 5000 Chinese workers had been brought to Bodangora to provide the hard labour of digging the soil to reveal precious gold.

As Minister of Lands and local MP, I was invited to a special celebration to mark the 80th Birthday (I think) of the Community Hall that stands a kilometre or so up a road, off the Mitchell Highway.

One of the features of country life in NSW is that most rural areas have such a hall that is on crown land and is the centre of community life for the people of the area. Balls, meetings, picnics; any function the local area holds is held here, sometimes it is also rented by nearby townspeople for functions.

One of the great pleasures as Minister for Lands I enjoyed was being able to provide the trusts of these halls with money to maintain and care for these important meeting places for rural people.

It was a grand night that I will always remember, not because of the magnificent feast that the local ladies laid on, nor because of the grant I had given them was so warmly appreciated; no, it was

because one of the features of the night was when some of the oldest residents told us tales of those exciting, wild Bodangora days –not a quiet peaceful farming area, but a boisterous mining centre.

One of the first old boys to speak painted the picture of Bodangora in those early days.

The vast camps where the Chinese labourers were housed, the pub that was the scene of many wild nights, the general store, the school, and the mine that produced millions of dollars in gold.

Other speakers there told tales that I found breathtaking.

The publican had a rowdy business and a very comely wife. He loved hunting and at every opportunity took off with his rifle to seek something to shoot. That

was until after one unsuccessful outing he came back to the pub early to find his wife in bed with another man. He shot them both! What a scandal for Bodangora!

Another wonderfully-told tale involved the local school. Apparently, the Headmaster was a very stern man who ruled his pupils with the aid of a stinging rod. One boy seemed to always attract his ire. After one particular caning of this lad his father was so angered at the wounds suffered by his son that next morning he arrived at the school with his son and confronted this tyrant of a teacher.

So, the delightful old farmer who told the tale, informed us that after a bitter verbal exchange the two men came to blows. The battle moved from the classroom

out into the playground as they both landed blow after blow. The children, he told us, were all on the farmer’s side and made that clear with loud support every time he seemed to land a punch!

The fight, he concluded, went on for some time and both men were exhausted and the children knew they were going to have at least a couple of days off school.

However, the most interesting moment for us was when he told us that the father was the great-grandfather of Mrs. Whitlam whose husband at the time was our Prime Minister!

Today I am sure all the folk in cars that race through that area have no idea that what they see along that open, bare country can tell a very fascinating story.

Indigenous designs on NSW commemorative certificates

NSW residents can celebrate the birth of their child, milestone birthdays, or weddings with new Indigenous-designed commemorative certificates.

Established artist, children’s author and Gumbaynggirr Jagun woman Melissa Greenwood said the paintings capture the essence of love and connection between family and Country.

“I am inspired by Country, my homelands, my family and matriarchs, especially my Nan and Gran,” Ms Greenwood said.

“It is so important for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Australia to feel represented, particularly in such an important space that is births and marriages.

“We are the original custodians of this land and to have birth certificates in celebration of this is paramount.”

...inspiring locals

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

BIG Red Writing featuring founder of IkiFit Kim Macrae and Wez Thompson are performing a couple of live shows to launch a stream of songs that will be available on upcoming albums.

The pair will be performing at the Establishment on Sunday, October 23, at 4.30pm and the Black Box Theatre on Tuesday, October 25, at 7.30pm.

The performance at the theatre is $10 or $15 entry for couples.

Working together for 22 years Mr Macrae said him and Wez are looking forward to performing their music.

“I like to write music that has a message about the complicated stuff that seem happen to us,” Mr Macrae told Dubbo Photo News

“Whether it’s depression, pain, or confusion about politics, it’s how we deal with it and move past it.

“Times are hard and there are a lot of confronting issues.”

Mr Macrae said music helps him take a step back and recognise the positivity that surrounds and inspires him.

“We have so many good things going for us, but it is often overshadowed by the negatives, and we tend to focus and dwell on it,” Mr Macrae said.

Beginning to take his musical talent more seriously in his early 30s, Mr Macrae said he always had a passion for music but drifted back and forth from the industry.

“When I realised the stuff I was writing was good I was in my 30s, but I haven’t had the chance to learn how to play or sing properly because I was writing stuff and getting other people to record it,” Mr Macrae said.

His favourite song that he wrote ‘Sometimes’ is about

overcoming challenges and the hardships through life.

“A musician came in the studio to borrow some equipment and I played him the song and he told me that he enjoyed it and wanted to tattoo some of the words on his body,” he said.

“That made me really proud.”

Being a former high school teacher, Mr Macrae noticed the behavioural complexities at his school and wanted to assist oncoming generations.

“IkiFit is a behavioural program that teaches really good habits from when children are in pre school and primary school,” Mr Macrae said.

“When children are so young – they’re open books, and open to positivity.”

He said he received many testimonies from parents, and educators regarding the workshops and programs available.

The two shows will be an hour of original music.

The team at DubboPhotoNewshas been receiving more and more reader pet photos over the past few days for our Pets Month photo comp. We love them all!

This cute moment (above) was snapped by one of our staff so can’t enter the competition, but we reckon still deserves to be shared with our readers. It shows pup “Tessa” fast asleep between her two favourite boots.

Her owner has only had Tessa for a few weeks but she’s already decided sleeping between two boots is the best. And it doesn’t matter where her owner puts the two boots, Tessa just likes the homely comfort of her ‘sleeptime boots’!

you naturally want to get the best possible price. Here are three essentials you can get started on now to assist in attracting the best result: First impressions really do count – Pay attention to the appearance of your property. Is it clean and tidy? Is paint peeling or cracked? Do you need to replace the front door or letterbox? How are the yard, gardens and paths? Try popping a few pots filled with lush greenery or flowers near the door for a welcoming vibe. Clean and polish – Clean, fresh and sparkling sells! Pay particular attention to the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry. Take a look around with fresh eyes to identify flaws that are likely to put off potential buyers. A lick of fresh paint does the trick on the walls and new carpet or vinyl can work wonders.

Deal with potential danger – Be sure to fix anything that could injure a visitor to your home. Safety issues are not appealing –carefully check stairs, balconies, light switches, power points and cracked glass. Outside, think splintered decking, protruding nails, cracked paving and uneven flooring.

Lockdown loungewear brand booms

IT was the brand inspired by strict Covid lockdowns and the rising popularity of the loungewear trend.

Luxury pyjama label, West Nightwear, was founded by Dubbo creative and new mum, Gemma McHugh.

Launched in July this year, the brand stocks a bespoke collection of versatile wardrobe staples that can be worn to bed, on the lounge, or out for a coffee.

A grain merchant by trade, Mrs McHugh said she had always dreamed of starting her own business.

“After a lot of lockdowns and maternity leave, I had spent far too much time at home and it seemed to make sense to create something that could be worn at home, be acceptable to answer the door in or wear out,” she told Dubbo Photo News

“There were a few occasions in the newborn bubble where I would have unexpected visitors or just wanted to duck out for a coffee and having items that could be worn at home and on the coffee run seemed like the perfect addition to the wardrobe.”

Affectionately named after her son’s and great grandfather’s middle name ‘West’, each collection is a limited edition with hand-painted prints designed exclusively for the brand.

In the name of sustainability, production runs are kept small to ensure long-lasting luxury and reduce production waste.

In its short life, West Nightwear has amassed more than 2,500 Instagram followers and Mrs McHugh admits she has been overwhelmed by the response.

“I have been blown away by the support, I honestly thought I would know everyone that purchased in those first few weeks and it would mainly be friends and family supporting, but the majority of purchasers have been those I don’t know,” she said.

“I have already had people from all over Australia purchase, and just recently a bride in New Zealand purchase for her and her bridesmaids for her wedding day.

“One part that I love is repeat buyers, one customer has made the nightshirt her go-to birthday present for friends so will order and message me to add a personalised birthday message to each one.”

Utilising local talent to help with everything from branding, copywriting, photography, modelling, website build and styling, Mrs McHugh speaks highly of the team she brought together to help bring the brand to life.

“As much as sometimes it feels like we are a world away

from the city and everything that comes with it, we have some incredible local talent.”

Despite the numerous requests from boutiques to stock the brand, West Nightwear is staying exclusively online with Mrs McHugh admitting “for now, I just can’t let go.

“It’s been so lovely to have regional boutiques reach out enquiring into stocking West Nightwear, although for now West Nightwear is only available via our website,” she explained.

“Whilst we are just starting, I like to have a personal touch with purchasers, have control over packaging, photography and everything that comes with a small business.

“Once I am sure I have got everything in place to make the experience for buyers just as personal as when they are purchasing direct is when I would look into stocking elsewhere.”

Eventually, Mrs McHugh hopes to expand West Nightwear on a global scale.

“I would absolutely love to expand the style range, although at the moment I am extremely particular and won’t settle until it’s a style that is perfect and I love,” she said.

“There is always the dream of being stocked with the big names – imagine that, all the way from Dubbo!”

A Fish in water

By JOHN RYAN

ALCON Fish grew up in Dubbo and attended Dubbo Public before entering Delroy for his high school years, he was part of the first Year 7 class to go through Delroy back when it was a Year 7 – 10 standalone high school.

After finishing school he spent time working at McDonalds and as a car detailer. He was keen to try a few different things but after having done that, he reckons Fletcher International is a fantastic workplace destination for local school leavers.

“This is a great option for them to come out here and get a bit of money, buy their car or motorbike, whatever they want to buy when they get out of school,” he said, “I’ve been here 30-odd years and it only feels like I’ve been here 10 or 15.

“I started working here in March, ’89, the plant started up towards the

end of ’88, I was about 18 and I was doing a bit of work next door in the kangaroo works but it was a real wet season so there wasn’t much work so I decided to come here.

“I enjoy the workplace, it’s good hours. You start early and you’re home early. It's good management, really good management, we couldn’t have it better out here actually, they’re making the conditions better here all the time, things are getting better all the time, they’re making the work easier, always looking for ways to take the strain off us, it’s going well.”

He’s on the knives and has been for years, doing the briskets and shoulders which are A-Grade cuts.

“I’ve always been on the knives, I enjoy it, I enjoy doing the best job I can, it’s important to keep your knives sharp, it makes the job easier and you don’t have any

injuries because you’re not pushing yourself too hard,” he said.

“I’ve helped train other people coming through. It’s important they can learn from the more experienced people, it’s a good workplace like that, we’ve got good supervisors and ongoing training," pointing out the peace of mind he gets knowing there’ll be a good paycheque each and every week.

“It’s good, that’s why I’m still here, you can rely on your pay every week, it’s not like working for yourself where you don’t know if you’re going to get paid, or if the work’s going to be there, I’ve got a house in town, it’s good to have that security.”

He says the company’s always working to find new ways of easing the strain of all jobs, and Alcon believes it not only means many employees want to stay with the firm, but by easing the occupational strains of

the work he knows he’ll be able to work longer himself.

Alcon enjoys being busy at work and likes the fact he can work hard at it Monday to Friday, earn a good living, but then have the weekends for himself, so he can go bush with his mates.

He loves his water-skiing, jet-skiing and motorbike riding, with several bikes in his stable including a KTM 520 for the dirt, a sports bike and a Harley for the road, as well as a quad bike.

“On the weekends my time is my own, it’s really good to get out to the dam or the river or all over the state, we go all over the place.

“I can enjoy my life, I’ve got a really good life-balance. My father’s got a farm and we do a fair bit of camping, it’s so relaxing, no-one to annoy you, there’s no rules, you can do what you want, actually,” he laughed.

The taste of Nepal on Macquarie Street

TIJANA BIRDJAN

FOOD-LOVERS can travel to Nepal through the comfort of authentic cuisine by visiting Nepali Food Mandala on Macquarie Street.

Chef Prazwal Shrestha and restaurant manager Yunisha Bulaminnagar say they enjoy the excitement of introducing the cuisine to customers who may have limited experience with cultured food.

Living in Australia for the past five years, Mr Strestha has combined a range of techniques into his cooking style from his home country.

Working at the restaurant for almost three months, he has the opportunity to combine different spices from Nepal and introduce them to the Dubbo community.

“When I used to work in other restaurants, I made a lot of friends who loved

to try cultured food and different types of things that they have never tried before,” Mr Strestha said.

“I showed them how [Nepalese] food looks and tastes like, and they loved it.

“In a place like Dubbo, different types of food matters.”

Introducing him to the art of food, Mr Shrestha worked in his family restaurant when he lived in Nepal and was inspired to bring the culture to Australia.

He said throughout his experiences he has learnt a lot of techniques from his previous chef and combined them with his own style.

“I love learning things, so I combine a few things from my country and a few new things I have learnt while living here,” he said.

“It’s not fusion, but it tastes like fusion.”

“I sometimes watch YouTube and other videos to learn, and I use to have my friends teach me a few different things,” Mr Shrestha said.

He said he likes the atmosphere of the restaurant and his freedom in the kitchen.

“I like this place a lot,” he said.

Ms Bulaminnagar said the restaurant tries to incorporate every region’s delicacy into the menu.

“We have a lot of Nepalese food from many different places so we’re doing our best to bring them to Dubbo,” Ms Bulaminnagar said.

For people who have never tried Nepalese food, Ms Bulaminnagar recommends starting with a Thali set as it is a childhood favourite.

EMERGENCY REPORT

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Fire in the bin

FIREFIGHTERS rushed to the scene of a fire last Friday evening as a street bin was reported to be engulfed in flames.

The fire was in a bin near the corner of Talbragar Street and Carrington Avenue, the firies bringing it under control within a short time of arriving at the blaze.

Wet weather disasters

FLOOD disasters across two states have reignited calls from experts to governments, councils and urban planners that we shouldn’t be building houses and other buildings on floodplains.

There’s also been plenty of speculation about how well the nation’s roads have been built, with the constant rain and overland water flows causing some sections of pavement to shatter, and uncountable potholes across the NSW road network.

Gil crash

EMERGENCY services scrambled to reports of a car crash between Gilgandra and Eumungerie –three kilometres southwest of Mialla Road – on October 11.

fronting and challenging scene when there is a motor vehicle accident on a major regional highway,” Inspector Levelle said.

“A woman was trapped in her vehicle due to the collision and treated for a laceration to her head, with spinal precautions applied before being safely extricated by the SES.”

Secret speed cameras not so secret anymore

AFTER plenty of pressure, the NSW Government has backflipped on its controversial decision to remove signage for mobile speed camera cars.

The NRMA had been critical of the revenue-raising initiative which it claimed had caused plenty of problems yet failed in its aim

to reduce the amount of speeding offences, with the road toll rising during the ill-fated experiment, road deaths in the state rising by 46 since the signage was discarded.

Many motorists who had never copped a speeding fine have told Dubbo Photo News they’d been pinged for being over the limit by just a few kilometres per hour, concerned that could have been speedo error and that they’d been unfairly fined.

Even senior police had voiced private concerns that people were focussing so much on whether they were over the limit by a miniscule amount, that they were losing concentration on other road dangers.

The NSW opposition campaigned vigorously to have the

secret cameras highlighted by proper signage and has claimed it as a victory for the people in the lead up to the state election next March.

Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders maintains the speed cameras are ensuring local roads are as safe as possible for pedestrians and motorists.

“Speed cameras play an important role in keeping commuters safe by reducing fatalities across our road network, including at high-risk areas,” Mr Saunders said.

“But we have heard loud and clear from the community on this issue, so from January 1 next year, all mobile speed cameras will have portable signage placed both before and after the camera.

“These additional warning signs will give drivers advanced warning to slow down at these highrisk points of our road network.”

Alleged thieves charged INVESTIGATORS are continuing to identify the owners of property alleged to have been stolen during a number of thefts across the Dubbo and Nyngan areas over the past month.

Officers from Central North Police District commenced investigations after receiving reports of a number of vehicles being broken into at a caravan park in Dubbo on Monday, September 7, and at various premises in Nyngan on October 4.

Police will allege various items were stolen during the incidents, including bank cards and firearms.

Following a joint investigation by detectives from Bourke and Dubbo, a search warrant was executed at a home on Orchard Street, Nyngan on October 7 where items including firearms, ammunition and other items believed to have been stolen were located.

A 29-year-old man was arrested at the home and taken to Dubbo Police Station, where he was charged with five counts of larceny, possess unauthorised firearm,

possess ammunition without a licence and not keep firearm safe.

He was refused bail and appeared at Dubbo Local Court where he was formally refused bail and is next to appear at Dubbo Local Court on November 21.

Further inquiries led police to execute a second search warrant at a home on Orchard Street, Ravenswood, on October 14.

During the search, police say they located firearms, ammunition, power tools, a boat motor, and other property alleged to have been stolen – all items have been seized for forensic examination.

A 30-year-old man was arrested at the home and taken to Warren Police Station where he was charged with larceny, and three counts of obtain benefit by deception.

He was granted conditional bail and will appear at Warren Local Court on November 1.

Sex education needed in regional communities

FAMILY Planning NSW has released their latest report recording the rates of 15 to 19-year-olds who gave birth across NSW highlighting the difference in rural, regional, and metropolitan areas.

While the national adolescent fertility rate has halved since 2011, regional and remote communities have increased numbers.

Coonamble recorded their highest adolescent fertility rate at almost 60 per 1000 teenage girls while the state and national average is eight per 1000.

Chief executive Ann Brassil said the lack of sexual education and social services are contributing to the birthing rates.

“We know there are highly effective forms of contraception available, but we continue to have difficulty getting appropriate numbers of doctors upskilled to offer long-acting reversible contraceptives,” Ms Brassil said.

“Young mothers also tend to experience socioeconomic disadvantages, including lower rates of education and reduced employment opportunities.”

Financial support available for residents impacted by fl

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

A DISASTER Recovery Allowance will be available to eligible residents in Dubbo and 26 other local government areas (LGAs) following the September and October flooding events.

The fortnightly payment is available to assist employees and business owners who have experienced a loss of income as a result of the flooding and is payable for a maximum of 13 weeks.

Speaking in Dubbo last week, Minister for Emergency Management Murray Watt said, “We know that there are many properties that are isolated at the moment and people are simply not able to get to and from their usual workplace.”

He said payment eligibility also includes businesses that have remained closed due to the flooding.

Mr Watt confirmed farmers are not eligible for the Disaster Recovery Allowance but are eligible for other government low-interest loan schemes.

“What we intend to do in these situations is make a mixture of payments available to farmers; we will certainly consider if we should go further and provide grants,” Mr Watts said.

“If further support is needed, we’ll be more than happy to provide it.

“I know that farmers in this region are doing it tough, we’ve heard stories today of farmers getting ready for harvest only to see the crops

WIDE, WIDE, WIDE LOAD!

MEL Farrow was stuck behind this wide load a few days ago.

She was heading from Mendooran to Dunedoo and said the mammoth load was too wide to go across the railway line just a few kilometres outside Dunedoo.

“The escort driver said the load was nine metres wide, and the railway lights (gap) is eight metres wide,” she told DubboPhotoNews

The load appears to be the back of a giant mining dump truck.

wiped out.

“The problems with that are that if you are a farmer, you have incurred the cost of planting and all the work you do in the lead up to harvest, and now you haven’t got an income to rely on from the sale of that product.

“People are being badly impacted and that of course is flowing through to consumers at supermarkets in terms of the prices people are paying.”

After hearing complaints regarding the proof needed to be eligible for payments, Mr Watts said the government has been working towards minimising the upfront hassle.

“A number of changes have been made since taking office, for instance we have reduced the amount of evidence that is required to claim some of the payments up front,” Mr Watts said.

“I understand that people who have been affected by a flood or bushfire don’t necessarily have a lot of cash lying around or a lot of identity documents.

“They can get that overtime and prove they were entitled to the money.”

He said eligible residents are able to produce receipts and evidence after the payment.

Equivalent financial assistance will also be available to eligible New Zealand citizens (‘non-protected’ special category vias, subclass 444 holders) affected by the floods.

Coordinator general for National Emergency Agency Brendan Moon, Minister for Emergency Management Murray Watt and recovery support officer Tammy Greer were in Dubbo last week to announce financial support for flood-affected residents and businesses.

The art of the matter: Fair draws big crowds

Photos by KEN SMITH AND JEN COWLEY

PACKED to the gunwales with appreciative supporters, the Dubbo Art Fair’s opening night at the Western Plains Cultural Centre (WPCC) was a portent of the hugely successful days to come, with a staggering 1680 people crossing the threshold during the event’s three days.

The official opening drew a capacity crowd, with 200 guests gathering for a sneak peek at the collected works of 45 artists from across Dubbo and the region that made up the weekend expo.

In his opening address, special guest Barry Keldoulis, director of the Sydney Contemporary Art Fair, echoed the sentiment that was repeated constantly throughout the night and the weekend, that the quality and diversity of works on exhibit show the enormous potential of the Dubbo Art Fair to grow and become a major event for the region.

He believes such fairs have an important role to play in educating and making it easy for members of the public to buy art.

The fair, he says, is not just for artists, it also helps to make owning art an enjoyable experience.

For their part, the assembled artists were thrilled with the weekend, with many reporting good sales and great networking.

WPCC cultural development coordinator Jessica Moore said overall the weekend garnered an approximate collective total of $50,000 in

turnover, with artists also securing future work, commissions and collaborations.

“We had lots of feedback from artists that they spoke with people from Sydney, Canberra, Orange and Bathurst who were visiting the region, along with many, many locals who were coming to the WPCC for the first time, and buying for the first time.”

Events like the Dubbo Art Fair don’t just happen. There’s an eye-popping amount of work that goes in behind the scenes long before the doors open for the threeday fair.

Months of planning and co-ordinating, scheduling, promoting and logistics must be expended to put together such an extensive exhibition with so many moving parts.

“Everyone who wanted a booth got one, no one had to be turned away,” says Ms Moore. “The week of install is massive, with 10- to 15hour days to bump out three major shows and bump in 45 exhibitors.”

Not that she and her team are complaining.

“We love what we do and we love trying to give as many opportunities to the community as possible.”

It’s not just the event itself that’s important, says the coordinator who has been aboard with the WPCC every step of the way of its 16-year life.

“The support of the community is vital.

“We want to ensure that creativity is a key pillar for our community,

The hard working WPCC team that helped put the Dubbo Art Fair together: Tammy Pickering, Mariam Abboud, Jessica Moore, Kent Buchanan and Phil Aitken

and to make that possible it has to be viable for people to stay here and do, and that’s only viable if the community supports it,” says Ms Moore.

Her message is simple: from buying artists’ works at Dubbo Art Fair to seeking out original live music, or attending film festivals or local theatre productions, the more the community says ‘we are here to support our creative sector’, the more it will germinate and multiply.

Klassik Kool Kombi

By JOHN RYAN

When Garry Bice drives his 1970’s VW Kombi, it brings back memories of happy times with his family.

His son used to drive a Kombi, he was tragically killed in a car accident 17 years ago, so when he’s driving his light blue machine he thinks of all the good times they had together.

Almost two years ago he lost his wife to cancer:

“I’ve struggled with that,” Garry told Dubbo Photo News.

“I just love driving the old bus, they’re not the quickest thing on the road but I’ve done a few things to this bus to make it a lot better to drive, I just love it.”

We caught up with Garry at Dubbo Classic Cars and Coffee and while he said he’d been told it was a great morning out, he was staggered by how much positive social interaction

there was.

“First time I’ve been down here, I reckon it’s great, I couldn’t believe the amount of cars there were when I drove in, I’d been meaning to get down and I can’t believe how many people are here, it’s great,” he said.

He loves people stopping to have a chat and understands why so many locals regard the first Sunday each month as their favourite morning out.

“I’m trying to get on with things and I can come to Cars and Coffee and just chat to a few people in a casual way, it’s a really good way to socialise with people and there’s no pressure on anyone.

“This is good, it clears my head, I’m not over-thinking stuff, you’re just interacting with people, it’s good.”

He’d run into another bloke that morning who had

a split window VW ute and he was hoping to persuade the fella to do a deal on it – his passion for Kombis goes back a long way.

“I’ve been in Dubbo around 18 years, I spent a lot of my teenage life around Parramatta and I used to knock around a heap of mates

and we went surfing, we’d have two or three Kombis, go away and we’d all be jammed in there with our boards and whatever, we’d go up along the coast,” he said.

“We’d go surfing all along the coast, because we were from Paramatta

He spent much of his life working in and managing pubs and had a few professional boxing fights, a handy skill he says in those days as a publican.

“My daughter met her now husband in Taree and he

ended up teaching here in Dubbo,” remarking it’s been a great joy for him to watch his two grandsons grow up.

“That’s the only reason we came out here, you know, wherever James and my daughter go, that’s where I’ll go.”

Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair – Collection Day

SATURDAY saw Dubbo West Rotary Club members out sorting, stacking and packing books donated on their first book collection day. The club has taken over the organisation of the book fair from the Dubbo Macquarie Rotary Club and hopes to build on past successes.

“We didn’t know how the community would respond to our book appeal, a new organiser, a new collection venue, and a weekend collection day”, said Book Fair coordinator Colin Shanks. Dubbo West Rotary President Debbie McCreadie declared the collection day a great success.

“The support from the public was overwhelming. We were starting to worry that the books wouldn’t stop coming, we thought we might wear out our volunteers before they did.

We can’t thank the community’s generosity enough. Thank you Dubbo.

“Our new collection venue worked really well, we had plenty of space, drive through drop off, and shade to work under. Thank you to Custom Steel Frames for allowing us to utilise their carpark as a collection venue," Mrs McCreadie said.

The Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair collection day resulted in 10 full boxed pallets and having another 10 pallets filling up with different genres that they hope to fill at the next collection day.

If you didn’t get a chance to drop off your books this time, the next collection day will be Saturday January 21, 2023. The Book Fair will be held on April 29 and 30, 2023. More information dubbowestrotary.org.au or on Facebook – Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair page.

VOLUNTEERS OF THE MONTH

COUNTRY Women’s Association (CWA)

Dubbo Evening Branch has been making cushions for breast cancer patients for more than 30 years.

President Tracy Blackburn and 50-year CWA member Ruth Shanks confirmed that the branch will keep producing the cushions as long as it is necessary.

The U shape pillows are designed to support breast tissue scarring from seatbelts, the weight of arms, and for more comfortable sleep.

“It doesn’t matter what they use it for, if they need to throw it at their kids so the kids have something to do – then so be it,” Ms Blackburn said.

The Branch sources the satin in rolls from Silvia’s Fabrics in Moree where Ms Blackburn’s mum sews the cases for stuffing.

“We often stuff the cushion’s while we have our meetings and it works really well,” Ms Blackburn said.

“You sit and say ‘damn, I got to make more cushions’ but it’s not because you need to make more cushions, it’s because you know the person receiving them is having a bad day.

“The thing with breast cancer is that if it

is detected early there is a 95 per cent survival rate so that is a positive.

“And you are happy that the people receiving the cushions have had their mammograms and have gone through a clinic.”

The cushions are gifted with a letter of support and further information on the CWA.

“We get the odd letter or a message of ‘thank you’ which is really sweet,” Ms Blackburn said.

Ms Shanks said the branch began handcrafting the pillows when someone requested the idea.

“A year 12 group at St John’s College donated us money to buy materials so then we started making them,” Ms Shanks said.

“Other branches have asked us for the pattern, and we gave it to them.

“It’s not a secret, if we can help more people then more people can benefit.

“It’s how ideas grow.”

The CWA are looking for more members to help make breast cancer cushions and support other community needs.

If you are interested in becoming a member please contact Tracy on 0407254938.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION

STRANGE BUT TRUE Boxing heavyweight champion Jack Johnson invented the household wrench in 1922.

The movie title “Death Wish III” was changed to “Death Wish 3” after a survey conducted by the Cannon Group revealed that nearly half of Americans couldn’t read Roman numerals.

Tom Hanks’ brother Jim voices “Toy Story’s” Woody when his sibling is too busy.

A hat that doubles as a weapon? Sure, if you’re a gum-leaf skeletoniser caterpillar, which wears its old moulted heads on top of its noggin and uses them to bat away predators!

The human jaw can clench with 113kg of force.

From the “nothing like planning ahead” files: CNN has prepared a doomsday video, to be played

NOW HERE’S A TIP

Halloween is a fun evening that more and more Aussie kids seems to be getting into. This week, our tips compiler JoAnn has some great ideas if your household or neighbourhood is planning to do Halloween on October 31.

Candy, candy and more candy. Halloween is just around the corner, and some of us like to offer a non-candy alternative to any doorknocking ghouls and goblins. Here are three that I have been successful with: pencils, erasers and glow sticks/bracelets. – JoAnn

Post-Halloween sales are a great time to pick up imaginationstimulating accessories and outfits for the dress-up bin.

“Young children often love the ac t of pumpkin carving, but apart from letting them scoop out the seeds (which is FUN), there’s not a

safe way to let them help with the cutting. I recommend purchasing a small pumpkin for the little ones to decorate with markers or paint.” – W.F.

“Baby lotion is great to have around on Halloween, because it can be used to remove face paint. Masks can restrict children’s vision when trick-or-treating, so face paint is a better way to go. Use a washcloth and baby lotion to get that paint off quick.” – A.V.

Choose a battery-powered candle for your carved jack-o’-lanterns. You can leave it on longer, even when you aren’t home. And it’s much safer than a true flame.

“Give any costume that your kid wants to wear for Halloween the ‘dance test’. Have him or her put on the costume and dance around. If the child is tripping over the hems or the accessories are cumbersome, a change is in order.” – M.M.

Jack takes National motocross medal

By BEN MORGAN

TEENAGE Dubbo sensation, Jack Deveson, has excelled at the Australian Junior Motocross Championships during the school holidays.

Jack claimed second place in the 12-14 years 85cc class in Rockhampton, QLD.

The championships attract over 400 of the best junior riders from all over Australia and New Zealand to compete for national crowns in 12 age and bike size classes.

Racing for the Husqvarna Junior Racing Team, Jack started the championships strongly, with commanding performances throughout the heats and qualifying setting him up as a contender for the finals.

Despite some stiff competition from local QLD riders familiar with the Rockhampton track, the 14-year-old fought hard throughout his three finals, steering his Husky TC85 race bike to second place finishes in the first two races.

A victory in the final race capped off an impressive cham-

pionship for Jack and helped the young rider claim the second spot on the podium in the 12-14 years 85cc class.

Jack was humble in acknowledging the help from his family and supporters while accepting his trophy.

“What a week of racing at the Aussie Junior Championships. With a challenging track and fast competition I’m happy to come away with second in the championship in my last year in the 85cc class”, he said.

“I’d like to say a massive thank you to Mum, Dad and my family for all their hard work and support in getting me to the races”, acknowledged Deveson.

“I’d also like to thank the Husqvarna Junior Racing Team and all my sponsors for being in my corner”, continued the youngster.

The podium finish builds on a big year of racing for Deveson.

In August he flew to Finland with the Australian Junior Motocross team to compete at the World Junior Motocross Championships.

Despite showing early promise with lap-times inside the top 10

fastest riders, crashes in both his races relegated him to 23rd position overall in the championship.

Earlier in the year he clinched the NSW Championship with a dominant performance down in Wagga, comfortably winning all his races in the Under 14’s 85cc class.

Other local juniors representing the Orana regain at the Australian Junior Motocross Championships were Narromine’s Will Cale, who finished 13th in the 10-12 years

65cc class and 19th in the 9-12 years 85cc class, younger brother Ollie who finished 27th in the 7-9 years 50cc division, and Gilgandra youngster Oli Chandler who finished 11th in the 7-10 years 65cc class.

There’s no rest for the young riders as they will now turn their attention to local racing when Dubbo Dirt Bike Club hosts its annual Mac Daddy Cup charity race day at Morris Park Speedway on Sunday 30 October.

The Donny Duck

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

DUBBO Ducks celebrated one of their best loved members on Sunday when teams dived in for the inaugural ‘Donny’.

Don Attenborough was a keen swimmer, a superb storyteller, fisherman and outback legend. He and wife Betty held some unforgettable Duck parties at their home in west Dubbo before the grand old man passed away last year.

Teams of four were drawn from a hat as members and family joined forces to fight for a treasured hand-made trophy.

The spirit of Donny and his Ducks was clear from the enthusiastic splashing in the 25-metre pool. Several teams went head-tohead with grandson Vincent pulling on the togs to honour his “old mate”.

The Blue Billed Ducks took ‘the special piece of metal’. Glenn Smith, John Wherritt, Rob Rich and Mark Prentice stopped the clock just.15 outside their time to win bragging rights from their “jealous” clubmates.

Glenn topped off a successful morning when he won the final of the 25m Freestyle after Brian Schloeffel went out “a little too fast”! He then backed up to claim the Closest to Time (CTT) in the 25m Backstroke, touching the wall a mere .24 off what he had nominated.

Norm Bahr was also .24 off his time to take out the CTT 25m Breaststroke from Marg Ross (.40).

The Donny Duck trophy was put together by Don’s grandson’s Karl and Vincent with bits and pieces collected from Don’s shed. A magnificent piece of work.

“It was lovely to have Betty and most of her family present for the event and even more special to have grandson Vincent “Vinnie” Williamson join in the swim,” Publicity Officer Judy Walsh said.

In an emotional morning at the Vets Swimming, club members comforted long-serving Duck Reg Ferguson. His wife Wilma had been a happy face at most of the Duck’s events, trips and social happenings over the past 60 years and Ducks donned their shirts and caps to say farewell at St Brigid’s on Friday.

The Ducks are back in the pool as usual on Sunday morning.

Outlaws roped by Wranglers

By GEOFF MANN

THE Orana Outlaws hopes of returning to the SCG this season took a hit on Sunday when the Wranglers rode into town and stole the points, Wranglers No 3 batter Cooper Brien led the Central West team to a match-winning 5/147. His 67 was a magnificent hand on a difficult wicket and his teammates backed up with the ball to roll the Outlaws for just 106.

Lachlan Skelly rattled the new look Outlaws to capture 4/21 and ensure the Wranglers’ prospects of playing in the Plan B Big Bash finals on the famous SCG.

The Outlaws meet South Coast Crew and the Illawarra Flamed at Morse Park Bathurst this Sunday while Wranglers play both teams in reverse order.

The winner of this final day of Group D matches will meet other top teams in the semi-finals played on the hallowed turf later this year.

IT was a great weekend at the McDonalds Dubbo Sixes Soccer Tournament hosted by Dubbo Macquarie United Football Club on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th October at the Apex Oval Sporting precinct.

Fifty-five teams from locally, across the state and nation battled it out across the Open Women’s, Open Men’s, Over 30 Women’s and Over 35 Men’s Divisions.

The weekend showcased local and visiting players and officials footballing talent with the glori-

ous weather turning it on after the recent inclement weather events.

The event was proudly supported by McDonalds Dubbo & Wellington, Dubbo Regional Council, Triple M, Castlereagh Hotel and several other local based businesses, thanks to all those sponsors.

NSW Country’s leading trainer

GEOFF MANN

BRETT Robb was always going to be involved with horses. He grew up around them in his father Rodney’s stables in Nyngan. Now he is the leading trainer in Racing NSW Country.

Dubbo Turf Club President Chris Davis presented Snow with his Premiership Trophy at the Coonamble Gold Cup meeting hosted by his club last week.

“Brett is an outstanding trainer. To win this award in his first full year of training reflects his talent. Snow was born into racing and he’s showed his credentials across all tracks across the Country circuit,” Chris told racegoers.

“He has a natural feel for the animals in his care. He has shown he is also very astute in his selection of races for his

stable horses and communicates clearly with owners of those under his care.”

Brett was typically modest in accepting the award but his staff couldn’t let it go without public acknowledgement on the Robb Racing Facebook page.

“Big day today for the Coonamble Gold Cup meeting. We had eight runners across the board for two wins, two second places plus a third and a fourth. Huge congratulations to Mr & Mrs O’Mally for their superstar Dalavin who made it five wins in a row, including today’s fantastic run to claim the Crystal Sprint!

“Snow also took out the 2022 NSW Country Racing Award for Country trainer of the year! Fantastic day all round. Thank you to the team and our wonderful owners for all the support,” the post continued.

Burto and Yeoy to debut for Australia

By GEOFF MANN

ST Johns and Dubbo CYMS junior league products Matt Burton (Penrith/Canterbury Bulldogs) and Isaah Yeo (Penrith Panthers) will achieve their childhood dreams when they stride onto the field against Scotland.

The pair have already shared the spoils of Penrith’s 2021 NRL Grand Final win and played leading roles in NSW Blues State of Origin win in Perth earlier this year.

Burto popped home to visit family and friends just before stepping onto the plane with the Kangaroos. The young five-eighth or centre was voted Bulldogs’ Most Outstanding Player in his first season with the club and has been resigned on a lucrative long-term contract.

Isaah spent time with his wife and first child after leading the Panthers to their second successive title on the long weekend. It capped a fairytale season that saw the strapping ball-playing forward named Lock of the Year and NRL Captain of season 2022 at the prestigious Dally M Awards.

Dubbo local brings

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

LIVING in Dubbo, you do not typically hear of a rising AFL star, but that is what Cooper Smith is soon to become.

Last Thursday, 15-year-old Cooper was selected for the Greater Western Sydney (GWS) Giants U16s phase one training squad starting in November.

Cooper has been training with the GWS Giants academy for the past three years and was selected to compete for the Super 24 Series in Albury versing Sydney Swans where he was fortunate to get recognised for the squad.

Originally from Sydney, Cooper loves watching and playing the sport.

“My dad inspired me to play footy growing up,” Cooper said.

“He’s very serious and wants me to do well.”

Cooper began kicking the ball with his dad Steve before the age of seven and grew a passion ever since.

“No one expects a kid from a town called Dubbo to make it in a team like that,” Cooper said.

He hopes to progress through phases two and three and ultimately be selected for the AFL.

“I love the Giants, but I would love to play for the Swans too – any Sydney team really,” he said.

“My favourite player is Chad Warner, I love his game style.

“I’m not quite big enough to be a midfielder though.”

Cooper’s teammates are often surprised when Cooper tells them he resides in Dubbo.

“I get questions asking if we have internet or if I own a helicopter which is funny,” he said.

Cooper’s mother Jo Finlay said the past season Cooper has been travelling to Sydney each weekend.

“It’s been a great experience for him,” Ms Finlay said.

“Him and his dad have played

footy since Cooper was a young age and it’s always been a career goal for him.

“He got started through Dubbo Junior AFL and they have been super

supportive in starting him off and getting him where he needed to be.

“South Campus have also been wonderfully supportive in letting him achieve what he wants to do.”

Sundee Morning Bowls ‘Karen impresses’

Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’

A SLOW start from Mary Perry, Leo Balstad and Matt Quill allowed Sue McCauley, Doc Livingston and Mike Twohill to do some scoring during the first eight ends. Their multi-shot tallies ensured Mary, Leo and Matt had to work hard to claw them back however Sue, Doc and Mike kept the pressure on for a solid win.

Allan Stratford and Chris Cristante had a bit of ‘luck’ at times on their way to leading Gordon Lummis and Pete Ruzans at the turnaround. The second eight ends were better for Pete and Gordon but Chris was at times ‘fortunate’ to upset well placed bowls taking much needed shots away from Gordon and Pete.

Ruby Stockings was back at Sundy bowls after her holidays. Rejuvenated and keen, she teamed with John Kennedy and Debbie Hayden and they opened with a three. Ron McCauley, Julie Brown and Col Cottee had plans of their own and only one shot was the difference as they turned into the second half. Having the control of the mat is always important and Ron and Co had their fair share during the second eight ends to clinch a close win.

Gordon Scott played against John Cole; his partner Mel Giddings had Rob Pfeiffer in a game of Pairs. John and Rob were reasonably dominant for the first 8 ends, but Gordon and Mel kept them honest but at times things just did not go the way they wanted. The second period of 8 ends had both teams testing the boundaries of the other, shot for shot, end for end. A classic!

Vicki Hummel has been amongst the Sundy bowlers for just a short time but had a conversion rate of 86 per cent before she teamed with Sue Armstrong and Ricky See. Ron Millgate was partnered with

Frank Armstrong and John Hayden. Frank has found form over the last few weeks, claiming well-earned respect from other bowlers. A tight first half saw Vicki, Sue and Ricky leading by a shot. Both teams were thinking a win could come their way which made the second 8 ends a good contest, both sides giving as best they could.

Chris Castlehouse has made the leap into the Sundy bowls event and is keen to enjoy all it offers. Pete Bennison and Phil Knight were her first partners in a triples against Carl New, Dave Davis and Eric Satchell.

Her team’s first half netted a few shots but a more settled line up outscored Carl and Co in a tense second period. Eight ends each and both teams enjoyed their after-match refreshments.

Shirley Marchant was the swinger for her game, combining with Chris Strojny and Karen Greenhalge as well as Mick Strawhan and Trish Gosper. What could go wrong?

Al Andriske was a happy chappy having had some good news, and he was happy to be bowling with Ron Morrison and Paul Goodstat. A relaxed Col Dover skipped Ray Strawhan and Roger Sherwin, making the first half theirs, scoring on five of the ends. Ron, Al and Paul did score a triple during the first eight but had to battle to get big scores as both sides shared the mat during the second. Ray, Roger and Col rolled a triple and a four to help improve their tally, very happy to have bowled well as a team.

Big winners – Shirley Marchant, Chris Strojny and Karen Greenhalge; Runners up – Ray Strawhan, Roger Sherwin and Col Dover; Resters – Col Dover, Col Cottee, Karen Greenhalge and Dave Davis.

Dubbo local Cooper Smith is looking forward to play in the U16s phase one training squad in November.

Illness in the weeks leading up to the meeting at the Chandler Aquatic Centre restricted NSW multiple strokes champion Sophie, however club officials praised her courage and determination.

“These are qualities that will see Sophie return to the pool and upcoming championships much stronger because of the experience. It showed she has outstanding ability to have travelled and performed as well as she did despite the obvious restrictions because of illness.

She is a shining light for our squad, someone others strive to follow,” coach Valentine told Dubbo Photo News

Brody Steel and Abbie Messner.
