Giddy up cowboys, the Nevertire Rodeo is back!

By HARRIET GILMORE WARREN’S Aiden O’Brien was recognised last week at the 2023 RFS Youth Awards, winning the Secondary School Cadet Program’s “Cadet of the Year” award. Held at the RFS Headquarters in Sydney Olympic Park, the award program is an opportunity to acknowledge the invaluable role young people play in the Service. Established in 2009, the Cadet of the Year Award, recognises the efforts of a participant in the Secondary School Cadet Program that aims to promote learning, leadership, and the values of volunteering and community service. Aiden participated in the Cadet Program at Warren Central School which is within the RFS North-West District. Aiden was nominated for his great leadership, maturity, and teamwork, which involved him taking-on a crew leader role in practical and theoretical tasks throughout the cadet program.

for-proﬁt organisation who puts on the event can’t wait to have punters kicking up dust on the Sunday of the October long weekend. Tom Russ, president of We of the Nevertire, the local committee organising the Nevertire Rodeo, said he was

so excited to have the event back this year. “It’s been a long time coming and we are so looking forward to having everyone back in our little village,” said Mr Russ. “It should be a cracking day, with an action-packed schedule of rodeo events planned,

market stalls, and a full bar and food facilities on site.” This year, the committee has also teamed up with the Cobar Rodeo committee to offer a ‘Best in the West’ competition. Continued page 2

Breathe! open-air library upgrade is starting soon By HARRIET GILMORE THE tender from Precinct Commercial Pty Ltd has been accepted by Warren Shire Council for the upgrade work planned for the lobby area of Warren Shire Library. The lobby upgrades are to cost more than $169,000, and are part of the almost $316,000 grant received from the State Library of NSW to improve the main library entrance; with a particular emphasis on meeting the needs of people living with disability and those with prams. Announced in May last year, the “Doorways to an OpenAir Library” project will also provide enhanced communication for the community via new digital signage, as well as increased sustainability through the installation of a rainwater tank. Warren Shire Council General Manager, Gary Woodman, said it is good to see the

work now underway. “Council is pleased to be able to continue the upgrading of the Warren Library with a new entrance and the landscaping of an outdoors area to enable fresh air use of the library facilities during suitable periods of the year,” Mr Woodman said. “Most importantly, the improvement works are fully grant-funded from the NSW Government though the State Library,” he added. Work is scheduled to begin in early October and is expected to take about 10 weeks. During this period, Regional Library Manager, Pamela Kelly, said that they are planning to temporarily relocate the library to the old Information Centre on Burton Street while work is undertaken. “We will be running a popup library from the old Information Centre during this time, but we are still in planning for this to take effect,” Ms

Kelly said. “We will provide further information, over the next few weeks,” she added. Council has also advised they have declined any tenders submitted for landscaping works, with plans to enter negotiations with Precinct Commercial to carry-out these

Top firefighter: Warren’s Aiden, recognised at RFS Youth Awards From page 1 Other winners included Wesley Bertram from the Cumberland District, who was awarded Young Volunteer of the Year in the 12–15 years category, and James Griffith from the Central Coast District, who was Young Volunteer of the Year in the 16– 25 years section. Minister for Emergency Services, Jihad Dib offered his thanks to all the youth involved in the program. “Congratulations to these exceptional young people, who have been recognised for their outstanding participation and accomplishments,” Mr Dib said. “Anyone who volunteers their time to help protect the community deserves commendation,” he added. The program shows the bright prospects for the Rural Fire Service NSW, he believes. “It is heartening to see our younger generations dedicating their time to help keep people safe from bushﬁ res. “I am conﬁdent, the future of the RFS is in safe hands, with

young people like these joining as volunteers, and I thank them for their contribution to the NSW community.” Commissioner of the RFS, Rob Rogers added his support. “These awards acknowledge the effort and enthusiasm of young members in the RFS and recognise their hardwork and community participation,” he said. “Aiden, Wesley, and James, are great examples of passionate young people who have devoted their time to helping protect their communities and gain invaluable skills,” he added. Credit also goes to those who organise and run the Cadet scheme, he explained. “The RFS is proud to provide opportunities for young people, and I thank the volunteers and staff who make the time to run the cadet programs and mentor our junior members. “I also thank the school communities, who offer the opportunity for students to participate in the Secondary School Cadet Program,” Mr Rogers said.

works on a piece basis. This will occur following rescoping of the landscaping component of this grant-funded project to bring the whole project within budget, with the ﬁ nal rescoped landscape design to be presented to the Town Improvement Committee prior to its implementation.

At the time of the successful application for the grant from the State Library, Warren Shire Mayor, Councillor Milton Quigley, said the funding would help to transform the much-loved Warren Shire Library into a more modern, accessible facility. “Local libraries are a critical part of community life in regional shires like ours,” Cr Quigley said. “We’ve been through a difﬁcult few years, and this type of community-focused infrastructure — where all in the community can come-together to read, study, and relax — is more important than ever before,” he added. He added that, getting the external funding, was vital to the project’s realisation. “I’m pleased that we were able to successfully advocate for this grant on behalf of our residents, who deserve access to quality library facilities,” Cr Quigley concluded.

be checked in or out, and at any time of the day or night. The program helps to make reading more accessible and convenient. Once ﬁ nished, books can either be returned to the street library network, or shared and passed on to friends. Warren Shire Council Economic Development and Visitation Manager, Susan Balogh, said she was excited for the VIC to be a part of this great book-reading initiative, adding that it had been well-received by both visitors and locals, who are already taking and leaving books at the miniature “library” facility.

Wild start to Spring, 2023; with an early fire warning By HARRIET GILMORE WILD weather has hammered the region, kicking-off a worrying start to Spring 2023. This season, the Rural Fire Service (RFS) declared the Bush Fire Danger Period for the region starting on the ﬁ rst day of September — a full month earlier than is usually the case — due to anticipated dryer and warmer conditions and increased fuel-loads after last year’s ﬂooding events. The decision proved timely, with the first “extreme” fire danger rating and total fire ban, issued just a few

days later. With hot and very windy conditions forecast for last Thursday, September 7, the local government area covering Warren Shire, together with the Coonamble, Bogan, and Gilgandra shires, were declared “extreme” fi re danger areas and issued total fi re bans. “High” fi re danger warnings also remained for the Upper Central West Plains through to Friday. In these districts, landowners were urged to stay vigilant and have a bush-fi re plan in place, however, thankfully, no major emergencies were re-

ported in the area. Thursday’s wild weather continued into the evening with wind gusts of up to 63 kilometres per hour recorded at Trangie Weather Station, with thunderstorms and lightning also battering the region with only a few millimetres of rain recorded. Temperatures dropped over the weekend, reaching lows of one degree, but the Spring sunshine is set to return and, with daily maximum highs of 290C predicted later in the week, the community is again being reminded about the bush-ﬁ re threat.

Throughout the State for August, the NSW RFS responded to more than 2031 bush and grass ﬁ res compared to 638 for the same period last year. NSW Minister for Emergency Services, Jihad Dib, has reinforced the need for all landowners to take the time now to prepare for the bushfire season. “The warm and dry conditions have put landholders on heightened alert,” Mr Dib said. “Preparing for the season is a shared responsibility, and everybody needs to think now about their plan and preparation as we head into bush-ﬁ re

season,” he added. The Minister also emphasised the need to be prepared for the worst. “It’s important to have a ‘plan’, even if it’s a conversation with your family about what you will do during a ﬁ re — including where you will go, when you will go and what you will take. “As the weather starts to heat-up, it’s time to take simple steps like reducing vegetation around properties and cleaning gutters to reduce the amount of fuel,” Mr Dib concluded.

Kerry gives 300th blood donation: New helping 900 people along the way pumps are finally installed at Oxley Park Kerry Felstead giving his 300th blood donation at the Dubbo blood bank. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

By HARRIET GILMORE AFTER a three-year delay due to COVID-19 lockdowns and last year’s flooding events, new pump casings have fi nally been installed at Oxley Park pumping station. This follows the pumps at both Oxley Park and Ellengerah Reservoir, both failing in 2021. It was then discovered that the Ellengerah Reservoir pump was beyond repair. However, the Oxley Park pumps were found to be recoverable through their reconfiguring to improve their accessibility for maintenance. Water NSW then identified a small window of opportunity to complete the reconfiguration in mid-August. This required local businesses Ryan Mason Engineering and B & D Brouff Earthmoving Pty Ltd, to jump onto the job to complete the work within the tight timeframes. In explaining the work, Ryan Mason Engineering, said that the 24 metre assemblies for the pump were fabricated more than two years ago. With the pump casings now installed, Splat Plumbing can begin manufacturing the pipework that connects the pumps to the Oxley Park Reservoir. Once this is complete, B & D Brouff Earthmoving can fi nish-off the concreting works to lock the new pumps into place. Sparkies RJ & BA Sayers, can then finalise the electrical connections so that the pumps can be tested and re-commissioned into service. The fi nalisation of the project will mean that more than $150,000 had been spent on replacing or refurbishing all of the pumps around the Warren river system over the past two years.

By EMILY MIDDLETON ONE Central West local recently hit a major blood donation landmark, having donated his own blood supply, many times over Former Warren local Kerry Felstead hit the significant milestone after last week donating blood for the 300th time. Mr Felstead was told that, his hundreds of donations of both blood and plasma, has helped about 900 people, including numerous newborn babies. “I have rare ‘O-negative’ blood, meaning my blood can help newborns when they need a bit of extra help,” he explained.

“That’s why I do it, to help the sick kids,” he added. Mr Felstead loves doing what he does and is on track to reach his target of 500 donations; his tattoo artist has even left a space on his arm for when he hits his goal. Dubbo’s Australian Red Cross blood donation centre told Mr Felstead during his recent visit that, of his 300 donations, 71 have eventuated in further blood donations, and 210 have been plasma donations. The Dubbo team are very impressed with his efforts, celebrating the milestone with an official certiﬁcate and a badge of honour. “It’ll go with the rest of my collection of blood donation stuff,” he said.

After attending his 300th, his neighbours put on a surprise to come home to. Featuring cake, lollies, and even a new cap, Mr Felstead was very grateful for the support he has received from his friends both in person and online.

“I am especially grateful for Donna Gilmour and family, as well as Denise Gall,” he said.

“They made me feel very special, and the kids even got involved and drew on my card,” he added.

Working his way slowly towards his goal of 500, Mr Felstead is already now booked in for donation number 301.

Labor introducing proposed changes to water management which would weaken their obligation to protect affected communities. The original basin plan was one which aimed to both beneﬁt the environment and protect the social and economic assets of communities along the waterways. My fear, and the fear of many

in the basin, is that the proposed changes will damage these communities, provide questionable environmental beneﬁts, and deliver tokenistic compensation. For more on this, please read the release from myself and Senator Perin Davey on my website.

I look forward to seeing all the wonderful, iconic images which are sure to come through in this year’s competition!

Warren Shire Council undergoing infrastructure projects By ANDREW TARRY THE Warren Shire Council are undergoing a range of infrastructure projects around the township and shire, with progress being made across the variety of works and developments. There has been a sizeable amount spent on “Village Enhancements for Warren, Nevertire, and Collie,” with $303,702 of the $547,659 budget already expended towards the projects. The list of complete or current work for the enhancements is as follows: f Rescoping has commenced for the planting of the ﬁ nal street and park trees in Nev-

ertire and Collie. Kerb, gutter, and footpath works in Nevertire are at 99 per cent of completion. The new toilet block for Noel Waters Oval is now complete, while electric barbecues have been installed at the Nevertire community Park. f The Carter Oval and development of surrounds has had $706,919 of its $952,253 budget expended with irrigation installed and sprinkler irrigation heads and valves replaced. The little athletics and soccer ﬁeld development including turf installation has been completed. There are works irrigation and maintenance planned as well. More pathways between the sports ﬁelds will be constructed

once the soccer fields and junior cricket field are complete, while the carpark development has been delayed due to slow progress of the amenities building construction. f The lighting project at Carter Oval is now complete subject to the fi nal quality and assurance testing report certification to be handed to the council. The project required the entire $127,151 of allocated funds. The changes and amenities block at Carter Oval has run into numerous problems ensuring that the foundations are appropriate and can manage the development. After quality issues and non-conformances were found with the work completed by the con-

tractor the council received advice to change the nature of the foundation. After more delays with the project, work has resumed in late August to complete the development. $651,257 of the $669,497 budget has been spent so far with much more work to go. f The Splash Park have had contractors on site looking at defects of the swinging and splashing bucket. These have now been rectiﬁed. There has also been work on the stone seating, which has been rearranged to address the spilling of water. Lastly, topsoil is needed to alleviate trip hazards caused by steel edging bringing the expenditure to $84,240 from the budget of

$86,992. f $445,832 of the $555,701 budget has been expended on the Warren showground and racecourse upgrade project. The equestrian area has been completed, with 500 tonnes of selected sand installed. The irrigation pump shed has also been installed with more sand installed on the warmup area. f The showground has received replacement ladies’ toilets with the cost coming to $55,250. The construction of a disability toilet is scheduled for construction with the work expected to be complete by September 2023. The cost so far comes to $67,996 which is under the allocated budget for the project.

NSW government commits to energy roadmap By ANDREW TARRY IN another step on the renewable energy journey, the NSW government have accepted the report on the Electricity Supply and Reliability Check Up and in response has signalled a “whole government” effort to the transition to renewable energy for NSW households, businesses, and communities. The report was conducted by an independent consultancy and sets out 54 recommendations to keep the Energy Infrastructure Roadmap “on track”. The report has also indicated key areas where the government should act to ensure that the transition occurs as smoothly and effectively as possible. The ﬁ rst key area is the whole government effort to ensure that as coal-ﬁ red powered is phased out, NSW households and businesses have enough renewable ener-

gy, transmission, and storage to transition over. The second key area is the establishment of the new Energy Security Target Monitor. The monitor will “actively scrutinise” NSW’s remaining private coal-fi red power stations as they start to wind down their operations over the next few years. The monitor’s job is to ensure ongoing reliability at the lowest cost. The fi nal key area is the streamlining of renewable approvals in the planning system as well as work to “enhance and coordinate community benefit sharing.” The onus is also on a consumer energy strategy to help households access potential smallscale renewables. The check-up report has found that NSW faces energy reliability challenges in the next few years with the NSW premier Chris Minns arguing that the previous gov-

ernment made the situation worse than it could’ve been by privatising energy generators, creating cost overruns, and delays of projects. “NSW is committed to meeting its net zero ambition and transforming our electricity system to renewables as soon as possible. This report and the government’s response rescues the renewables mission and puts the transition back on track,” said Mr Minns. The government has accepted 50 of the recommendations, 44 in full, 3 in part while another three are already underway or complete. Of the 54 recommendations there are some that directly concern regional and rural communities which are within or have close proximity to an REZ or renewable energy generator. For example, recommendation 37 suggests “to complement the on the ground

presence of Energy Co in the REZs, consideration be given to a broader public information campaign to explain the roadmap and promote its benefits and opportunities. While number 38 states that “an expansion of Essential Energy’s apprenticeship program in regional NSW be supported to help build the skills required for the energy transition”. Some recommendations target the transition specifically and suggest processes that can be implemented to prevent the state from being caught out or vulnerable. Recommendation 25 stipulates “that NSW simultaneously progress an ‘NSW Responsible Exit Policy’ under which any market participant in NSW proposing to retire existing generation capacity, or part thereof, above a fi rm generation capacity of 600 MW be required to sub-

mit their plans to the ESTM at least three years prior to the proposed retirement”. The announcement of the commitment of the energy roadmap was supported by the minister for energy Penny Sharpe. “NSW has no time to waste as coal-ﬁ red power retires and needs to be replaced by renewable energy generation, transmission, and storage. “It provides the practical and achievable next steps to rescue the Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap, and let NSW get on with it,” said Ms Sharpe. The minister also stated that the report has allowed the government to kick the tires of energy policy in NSW. The minister ﬁnished the statement by arguing that the insights contained in the report area a clear-sighted assessment of the actions that need to take place to consolidate the state’s energy future.

NSW government provides boost to disaster fund By ANDREW TARRY IN a $115 million dollar boost to the NSW Reconstruction Authority, the NSW government is has stated that with the proper resources the authority will now be equipped to support victims of natural disasters. The recovery from ﬂoods across NSW is still ongoing and with the potential for more natural disasters increasing in the future the government has said that it is committed to ensuring the state and communities are prepared for future catastrophic events. The funding also comes as communities voice their frustrations on the slow rebuild and recovery taking place in the most severely affected areas. Some communities around central west NSW are still waiting on ﬂood damage funding from the government that

was allocated and promised earlier in the year. The investment will take the NSW Reconstruction Authority budget to $321.3 million over four years. The ﬁ nancial boost will allow the authority to “start on a Sate Disaster Mitigation Plan and Disaster Adaptation Plan”. There are also projects which the funding will open, such as: f Supporting clean-ups and damage assessments. f Organising safe temporary housing. f Coordinating the repair and reestablishment of critical infrastructure such as schools and healthcare services. f Supporting councils and state agencies in rebuilding essential assets and infrastructure such as roads and bridges. f Public education and awareness campaigns.

f Distributing state and Commonwealth disaster recovery funding. A suite of government ministers from various departments have come out in support of the extra funding with many MPs describing the importance of preparing communities across the state as a vital endeavour. “We’ve all seen the devastating impacts of ﬂoods and ﬁ res across NSW, I am determined to take the action needed to save lives and ensure NSW has resilience in preparedness and response to natural disasters,” said NSW premier, Chris Minns. The minister for planning and public spaces, Paul Scully said “Being prepared doesn’t seem important or urgent until a disaster strikes, and then its value becomes very clear, very quickly. This investment will allow the NSW Recon-

struction Authority to be there for communities long before a disaster strikes and long after the disaster has passed.” While the Minister for emergency services, Jihad Dib commented that the investment is both smart and staged to make sure communities are better prepared for disasters. The move to boost the ﬁ nancial capability of the agency comes as data shows that since 2019, NSW has experienced more than 60 declared disasters, costing the state $5 billion, with 20,000 homes damaged in 2022. The ﬁ nancial costs of responding to natural disasters is increasing, a problem recognised by the authority as it currently facilitates more than $6.8 billion in state and commonwealth grant programs offering support and practical help. The parliamentary secre-

tary for disaster recovery Janelle Saffin supported the investment, calling upon preparedness in all its forms of community and government to become a key component of living in a changing climate. “The NSW Reconstruction Authority was needed to be the overarching agency that could take a whole-of- government planning approach to the preparation, response, and recovery to disasters, so that recovery plans and packages are in place before the disaster and the work on local adaptation plans and state mitigation actions scales up. Such groundwork ensures that agencies are ready to do the response and recovery work and that local communities who drive recovery can work in close collaboration with state and regional agencies,” said Ms Saffin.

By ANDREW TARRY IN another twist following April’s scathing report on the Inland Rail, the ARTC has started to inform its workforce that job losses will occur as the corporation looks to downsize. The report, submitted by Dr Kerry Schott AO, on the struggles and inefficiencies of the ARTC, provided highly critical ﬁ ndings against, governance, cost blowouts, and the corporation’s inability to manage the enormous “nation-building” project. According to reports, the number of jobs being cut is substantial and could be

in the hundreds. This comes as the project is now expected to cost $30 billion dollars, with development running well into the 2030’s, a signiﬁcant change from the original $10 billon price tag which came with a completion date of 2027. A spokesperson for the ARTC has come forward stating that the priority for the project is now the section between Melbourne and Parkes. To ensure the project can continue to go ahead, the corporation must “get right the operational capacity and organisational structure”.

The ARTC now has a big job on its hands negotiating with staff to determine “future resourcing requirements” while also offering support to “employees impacted by the organisational changes being made to our workforce”. It is thought that the difficult period for the ARTC will continue for some time as the recommended changes made in Dr Schott’s report start to take place and the corporation comes to terms with the consequences of its problems and new structure announced as part of the report response.

Central West set to benefit from $1.8 billion renewable energy transition commitment By ANDREW TARRY THE NSW government have announced that that they are committing a further $1.8 billion for the transition to renewable energy generation, supply, and storage. In addition to the funding the government is also establishing the Energy Security Corporation. The investment comes as the state government argues that the funding is needed to get renewable energy projects back on track. This comes as NSW renewable energy transition appears to be starting with the creation of the Renewable Energy Zones (REZ) and the approval of several solar and wind farms in the past 24 months. According to the government’s announcement, the commitment to invest more into the transition has several components which all aim

to ensure homes and businesses have “reliable power at the lowest possible cost”. $800 million is being spent on the Transmission Acceleration Facility to connect the state’s REZs to the grid sooner while also increasing the effort to bring forward benefits to communities. An early focus of the investment is going to be the “injection of support” to works in the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone around Dubbo. This is the fi rst zone created by the government and reports on the potential benefits suggest that at its peak, the Central-West REZ will support around 5000 construction jobs and bring up too $10 billion in private investment to the region by 2030. NSW premier Chris Minns and minister for energy Penny Sharpe provided comments on the announcement of the in-

vestment. “We’re determined to get NSW back on track when it comes to the energy transition, and this announcement is part of that. “We want the state to be able to invest in solutions that ensures reliability in the system, keeps the lights on, and creates new jobs for the state. This is a serious, longterm step towards ensuring we get the transition right,” said Mr Minns. The remaining $1 billion will be used to establish the Energy Security Corporation (ESC) which was a campaign promise from the previous NSW state election. The ESC will make investments in storage projects, addressing gaps in the current market, and seek to improve the reliability of the electricity network. An example of the projects which the ESC would invest in are community batteries

and virtual power plants that allow households to pool electricity generated from rooftop solar, reducing reliance on the grid. The ESC might also invest in commercial projects as well. “This additional $1.8 billion investment puts the renewable energy roadmap back on track. It will accelerate the transition to renewables, to ensure NSW households and communities have a reliable supply of clean, affordable electricity. This is a once-in-a-generation transition that requires massive investment and coordination from government and cooperation with the private sector. These investments will reignite the first of our Renewable Energy Zones in the Central-West Orana and make sure local communities see early benefits,” said Ms Sharpe.

The investment structure will now be submitted along with the environmental impact statement to the department of planning and environment for approval. After that it will be on public exhibition within a few weeks. The government’s investment commitment comes in response to the Electricity Supply and Reliability Check Up the government received in the last month. The transition target for renewable energy in the state, according to the report, should be to deliver 12 gigawatts of energy generation and two gigawatts of long duration storage by 2030. Should the investment deliver the projects and beneﬁts it suggests, communities in the Central West are likely to experience a lot of change over the coming years.

Historic referendum only one month away By ANDREW TARRY THE referendum for the Voice to Parliament is only a month away as the country counts down the days until the historically signiﬁcant moment. People across the nation will enter the ballot box on a Saturday morning in the middle of spring and vote “Yes” or “No” to the proposed question. In the last few weeks, households across the country have received pamphlets created by the government regarding information on both campaigns as well as information on how the vote takes place. As the time remaining before the vote dwindles, voters

will be asked to decide on their response. Voting is compulsory for the referendum as it is with general and state elections. Australia has held 44 referendums, although since multiple questions have been asked at some of those referendums, Australian voters have only had to go to the polls on 19 separate occasions to consider constitutional amendments. Unlike the plebiscite a few years ago a successful “Yes” will result in the amendment of the Australian Constitution. Should the “No” vote be carried, then no amendment is made. The proposed question and amendment to the constitution

We do our best work when you’re involved

for the upcoming referendum is as follows: “Statement of the proposed changes to be made to the Constitution. The proposed law, being the Constitution Alteration (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice) 2023, would change the Constitution by inserting the following text after Chapter VIII: Chapter IX—Recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples 129 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice In recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia: (i) there shall be a body, to be

called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice; (ii) the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples; (iii) the Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers, and procedures. The proposed law would also change the constitution by inserting the following text into

the Table of Contents in the Constitution, after the reference to ‘Chapter VIII Alteration of the Constitution’: Chapter IX Recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.” The ballot paper used on voting day will be one page asking for the voter’s decision. After the ballots close counting will begin. Since Australia became a federation in 1901, only eight referendums have been carried as a ‘yes’ vote with the last successful ‘yes’ vote occurring in 1977 to allow the territories (NT, ACT) to vote at referendums.

Wildflower U11s pipped at the post

Giving their all; the Warren Wildflower U11’s, were narrowly-defeated in the preliminary final on Saturday, going down by only two goals. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED THEY came so close, but were just pipped at the fi nal whistle; Warren Wildflower U11’s were narrowly-defeated in the preliminary fi nals on Saturday in Dubbo. These superstars have had a massive season and parents and supporters are so proud of them. “To say they have developed as a team, is an understatement; the girls have trained

hard, had fun together, and grown into a great little team,” a Club spokesperson said. “Ending the regular season third on the ladder was a massive achievement; the girls then had a great game winning 37-21 to progress to the preliminary fi nal,” they added. In this game, the Wildflowers gave it everything they had, fi nally going down by the slimmest of margins, 21-19.

“Well done to all the girls on their efforts this season; the team is so lucky that girls like Bree and Milly who can both defend and shoot, much like Grace and Maddie, who can both give it 100 per cent for a whole game and defend as well as they can attack,” the spokesperson said. “Winnie has proved her ﬁtness on the court, keeping the game in line as centre, while

Jemima is another of our girls who can play defence and attack and make a real impact in a game.” The girls all did their bit for a great season, the spokesperson added. “Evie has had a great ﬁ rst season with us and, we can’t wait to see her grow as a player even more next year; shout-out to our ‘supersubs’; Maggie and Mabel and also to

Amelia and Patsy, who ﬁ lledin when numbers were low during the season.

“The girls have earned themselves a good break and no doubt will come back next season bigger and better; well done girls,” the spokesperson concluded.

Iknowastar won 2023 Mudgee Nugget Cup

By COLIN HODGES

By COLIN HODGES APPEALING as a prime candidate for success in upcoming spring feature races including the Dubbo Gold Cup, Iknowastar was a dominant winner of the 1400 metres Mudgee Florist-Black Nugget Cup on Sunday, September 3 at Mudgee. The four-year-old Iknowastar from the Bjorn Baker stable at Warwick Farm came to Mudgee with an imposing record having won four races in succession at Orange (two), Mudgee and Goulburn before an unplaced run in the Group Two Tulloch Stakes at Rosehill prior to a spell. Second start back from the break, Iknowastar with Sydney apprentice Jett Stanley in the saddle was backed from $2.20 to $1.80 favourite for the Mudgee feature. Taking the early lead, Iknowastar shot away on the home turn and was not seriously threatened down the long home straight. Trained at Wellington by Peter W. Stanley, the well performed eight-year-old mare Not Negotiating ($26 to $21) ridden by the trainer’s daughter Ashleigh Stanley, from well back ﬁ nished strongly along the rails to run second while the Kris Lees, Newcastle trained Sailor (Ben Osmond, $7) ﬁ lled third place. Narromine trainer Kylie Kennedy has Lipstick Lil going well and the seven-yearold mare made it two wins in succession when taking out the 1200 metres Kristie’s Boutique Country Boosted Benchmark 66 Handicap. Hitting the front over the concluding stages, Lipstick Lil ($6.50) responded to strong riding by apprentice Will Stanley

Several of the big Sydney stables had runners in the 1100 metres Ultimate Care Maiden Handicap won by the Annabelle Neasham, Warwick Farm trained Dylan’s Lad ridden by Dubbo jockey Clayton Gallagher. Crossing quickly from an outside barrier, Dylan’s Lad ($3.80) shared the lead then accelerated to an impressive win by almost two lengths over Shalmum (Anna Roper, $7) and Nettles (Jett Stanley, $6.50). Scone trainer Stephen Jones had a winning double with Oh No Bro (Chelsea Hillier, $2.50 to $2.15 favourite) and Superabundant (Koby Jennings, $2.80 to $2.30 favourite).

ey attracted a capacity ﬁeld on Saturday for the $30,000 Dunk Insurance Enngonia Cup, with the winner Sacred Stream coming from the Charleville stables of Shane Iverson. Canberra based jockey Richard Bensley took the early lead on the Queensland galloper, and it was an all the way win by Sacred Stream ($3.20) by two and a half lengths from the Connie Greig, Dubbo trained pair Linden Tree (Will Stanley, $7) and Hemsted (Clayton Gallagher, $3 favourite) in the 1400 metres Cup. Richard Bensley and Nyngan trainer Rodney Robb were on their way back from outback Queensland where their wins included All Words in the Betoota Cup, and their stop at Enngonia in far north west NSW proved fruitful with a winning double, Hurn Court and Nannu. Both of those horses had been unplaced at Birdsville, however Hurn Court (Rich-

ard Bensley, $1.80 favourite) led throughout at Enngonia to win the 1000 metres Bourke Bowling Club Open Handicap from Billy Bent Ear (Will Stanley ,$3.60) and Za Hidden Dragon (Ken Dunbar, $4.40). Completing the Richard Bensley treble and Rodney Robb double, Nannu ($4.40) led most of the way to beat Ballycastle (Clayton Gallagher, $4.80) and The Drafter (Chelsea Ings, $10) in the 1400 metres Thomas Foods International Class 2 Handicap. Bathurst trainer Roy McCabe and his partner jockey Ashleigh Stanley made the long trip from the central Tablelands to land a winning double with Boovey and Overclassy. Near last turning for home, Boovey (Ashleigh Stanley, $11 to $4.80) stormed down the outside to win the 1000 metres Maiden Plate from Our Little Zoe (Angela Cooper, $7) and Hammoon Sunshine (Jake

B tt $7) Barrett, $7).

Overclassy (Ashleigh Stanley, $2.30 favourite) later led throughout to beat Jawsome (Paul Zerafa, $8) and Bonhomie (Will Stanley, $3.60) in the 1200 metres Nutrien Walsh Hughes Benchmark 45 Handicap.

Dubbo trainer Connie Greig has a tremendous record on western region tracks and she won the 1200 metres Class 2 Handicap with Belle O’ballee.

Coming from behind the leading trio, Belle O’ballee (Will Stanley, $2.60 equal favourite) won by over a length from Bionic (Clayton Gallagher, $3.80 to $3.50) and Rupeltier (Ken Dunbar, $5).

Enngonia had not held a meeting for four years due to COVID and wet weather and a big crowd welcomed back racing at the village north of Bourke.

Winners from the Marg Kentwell Trophy Day, Didi Simmons with runner-up, Sue Burke, and sponsor, Marg Kentwell. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED.

IN glorious spring weather, a total of 18 Ladies played last Wednesday’s 18-Hole Stroke and September medal event for the Marg Kentwell Trophy Day. Player numbers are increasing every week as the days warm, which is just fantastic for the competition. On the course, the old saying, “beware of the injured golfer”, was so true this week, with Didi Simmons, returning after a short break, having a great score of 65 and winning on the day. Sue Burke, hot on her heels on 66, was runner-up; with Bec Byles on 69, third; and Deb Kentwell won the scratch event on 89. NTP (nearest-the-pins) winners were: on the fourth, Pook Austin; the 13th, Christine Tilley; on the 16th, Deb Kentwell; and on the 18th, Didi Simmons. Golf balls went to Didi, Sue, Bec, Chris Trudgett, Tish McAlary, Kaye Martin, and Deb. with congratulations to all ladies and also thanks to Marg, for her continued sponsorship — it was great to see her out there presenting her

trophies, also. In other results, Saturday was the Warren Ladies Open tournament weekend, an American Foursomes for both mens and ladies. The event featured 44 players, which organisers were really thrilled with, as a good start to the open tournament weekend. Although a very cool day, this didn’t stop some sizzling scores from coming in. The Men’s winners were Peter Mackay and David Saunders on 70.625, and the Ladies’ winners were Christine Tilley and Narelle Whittaker on 71.75. The Men’s runners up were Craig and Mick Sadgrove on 71.375, and the Ladies runners up were Pook Austin and Didi Simmons on 72.75. For NTPs, winners on the 13th, were Peter Mackay and Robyn Downey; and, on the 18th, David Saunders and Tish McAlary, congratulations to all winners. On Sunday, the course hosted the Ladies Tournament; an 18-hole event with 41 golfers playing including 23 Ladies from Cobar, Nyngan, Tottenham, Trangie, Gloucester,

Dubbo, and Wellington, as well as 18 locals for this popular yearly event. As it was a 10am Shotgun start, at 9.55am the golf course, looked like Pitt Street in peak hour with carts going in every direction to their allotted holes! After 18-holes, everyone was in the Club-house eating the delicious lunch prepared by our “food fairy”, Sue Burke and her offsider, Chris Moore; it was scrumptious! The time that everyone was waiting for then came; the Presentation! This included a beautiful array of prizes on display — thanks Val and Rob — and all the golfers were very keen to get their hands on them. Without further ado, Captain Chris and President Kaye, got on with the job and announced the winners, including:

McCutcheon, and Bec McKay. It was an incredible weekend with lots of catch-ups, new friendships made, and great golf played. The main topic of conversation heard over the weekend, was course and its top condition and, of course, our new toilet! (Never seen a toilet used so much in such a short time). A huge “thank-you” to all of the volunteers who worked so hard to maintain the course and get it looking so pristine. Also, the new toilet, was putup in record time and with such passion. Thanks for the little ﬁ nal touches, Damo, they really made it extra special. A big shout-out to both our weekend birthday girls, Christine Tilley and Christine Trudgett, hope you both had a special day. Upcoming events include, on Wednesday, a 4BBB draw for partners. “Do your best, one shot at a time, and then move-on. Remember that golf is just a game!” — The Dirty Birdie

By HARRIET GILMORE WARREN Bulldogs Junior League Club have wrapped-up their 2023 season by holding their presentation afternoon last Sunday.

Elias Milgate, the triple try-scorer in the Grand Final was awarded “Most Potential” that is — the player with the most potential to succeed in rugby league. Elias had an outstanding season and was also mentioned in the Grand Final match in Dubbo as a close-second for the Man of the

Match award. Other U10s award winners for 2023 were: Most Consistent — Chlex Deguitt; Most Improved — Harvey Leonard; Coaches Award — Will Austin; Coaches Award — Colt White; Best and Fairest — Tom Wise. The U12s team fi nished in the top four of the Dubbo and District competition after their loss in the fi rst round of the fi nals. The U12s award

winners for the 2023 season, included: Most Improved — Cruz Darcy; Coaches Award — Chlive Deguitt; Coaches Award — Jack Walker; Most Consistent — Riley Freeth; Best and Fairest — Tom O’Neill; Len Brien Shield — George Welsh. A big congratulations must also go to Tom O’Neill, who not only received the Warren Bulldogs Best and Fairest player award, but also took-out

the Referees Best and Fairest award for the entire U12s Dubbo and District competition.

The Mini teams — those ranging from under sixes, the two under eights teams, and the under nines — don’t play competitively, just for fun, with these players receiving participation medals for their great season.

By ABIGAIL MCLAUGHLIN

HE’S a young footballing gun who’s just been recognised locally, and now he’s off to the big league! Warren’s Fletcher Hunt, playing this season for the Nyngan Tigers, won big at the Group 11 Rugby League awards last weekend. Jointly taking-out the distinguished Under 18 Player of the Year award. Fletcher’s star is deﬁ nitely on the rise! After a stellar year playing in the U18s competition for the Tigers, he also regularly backed-up in First Grade where he performed well beyond his years. At the recent presentation, he was joint-winner of the Jim Lang Trophy, along with Michael Cody from Forbes, for the Group 11 Under 18s Player of the Year – a ﬁtting way to cap off his

ﬁve-year stint with Nyngan. In exciting news for local football, Fletcher also recently signed a three-year contract with the Newcastle Knights starting in 2024, and will play in trial games for the Club later this year. “I’m certainly going to give the big smoke a good crack but, one thing I know is, if it doesn’t work out, the Nyngan Tigers will be the only club I’d want to return to,” he said. Hunt grew-up in Warren and joined the Tigers in the U13s after his junior years with the Warren Bulldogs. He has continued to wear the Tigers black and gold ever since — helping the U18s win a memorable Group 11 premiership last year. “Joining Nyngan was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made,” Fletcher said. “Nyngan Tigers Junior

League and Senior League, have been the best Club to be a part of — from coaches to committee and supporters,” he added. He sees a bright future for the team for next season. “It wasn’t our year this year for our Under 18s, but there was a lot of improvement from our younger players so I’m sure they will come out fi ring in 2024. “We definitely had talent in our side, especially Will and Cooper Black, who have both been the backbone of our team since I started playing juniors.” He said that stepping-up into the seniors this year, was a fantastic adventure. “This year, I had the opportunity to make my first grade debut, which was a great experience. “All the fi rst grade players just took me under their wing. I really felt that they taught me a lot, and I’ve learnt so much

more from the experience that has really improved my game this year.” Nyngan Tigers player Mathew Sheather was also a winner at the Group 11 awards, taking-out the Bestand-Fairest for Reserve Grade — a surprise for the 28-yearold veteran who juggled footy with his roster at the mines; meaning he could only play every second weekend, or was bleary-eyed from a recently-ﬁ nished night-shift. “I was blown-away to receive the award, but I was deﬁ nitely honoured,” Matt said. “I’m passionate about league and love playing for the Nyngan Tigers,” he added. He has been playing for the Tigers since the U18s way back in 2014, and loves nothing more than running-on with his mates for a game of footy on the weekend.

“It is credit to our committee to have created such a successful club, and to all our sponsors out there with everything they contribute to help Nyngan be successful,” he said. It makes my job on the ﬁeld easier surrounded by a lot of other great players,” he said. He said that he felt especially privileged with the prize; considering the playing group at the Tigers. “This award could of went to a number of players in our team this year. But, I guess I was one of the lucky ones.” Parkes player, Jack Buchanan won the First Grade Best-and-Fairest, with Nyngan youngster, Aiden Birmgham, ﬁ fth in the point-scoring award. Forbes star ladies player, India Draper, collected the top prize for League Tag.
