WARREN SHIRE COUNCIL

May Meeting Update WARREN Shire Council recently held their monthly Ordinary Meeting, discussing a range of local matters of importance including: recent tenders awarded as part of the levee upgrades project; Council’s Risk Management Policy; recent appointments to the Independent Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee; updates on current road works and capital works; as well as updates from their committees and delegate meetings.

Tenders awarded as part of levee upgrades Council has awarded a tender for the supply and delivery of eight electric submersible pumps to Q-Max Pumps, for $132,550. To run the submersible pumps, Council also awarded JDC Thomson a tender to supply six diesel generators for $212,639.91. The new equipment has been purchased so that, during ﬂooding events like those experienced in 2021 and 2022, the pumps can be installed at various locations around the Warren Levee to pump out stormwater.

Documents on public exhibition Council’s renewed Risk Management Policy, new Risk Management Plan, and renewed Corporate Risk Register will be placed on public exhibition for a minimum of 28 days. To view the draft documents and submit feedback, visit Council’s website.

Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee (ARIC) appointments Following calls for Expressions of Interest, Council has appointed a Chairperson and two Independent Members to Council’s Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee (ARIC). During consultation with Coonamble Shire Council, Gilgandra Shire Council, and Lachlan Shire Council, it was found that these three Councils had appointed Graeme Fleming PSM as their ARIC Chairperson. As Mr Fleming is an experienced local government practitioner, contact was made to negotiate his interest in also becoming the Chairperson of the Warren Shire Council ARIC. Subsequently, Mr Fleming has now been appointed as the Chairperson of the Warren Shire Council ARIC, with Paul Smith and Grahame Marchant, appointed as the two Independent Members.

Current project and other works updates include:  The Warren War Memorial Swimming Pool amenities works are progressing well. Earthworks for the club room and accessible changeroom have commenced, and concreting of all pier works are now complete. Concreting for the main slab extension for the club room and adult change room, has also been completed.  Despite recent wet weather delaying some outside works, including the installation of a new septic tank, Terminal Building Construction works for the Warren Airport Project continue to be set completion by the end of June.  Tiling works at the new Carter Oval Youth Sports Precinct amenities building began in May, with the full project forecast for completion at the end of August. Waterprooﬁ ng of wet areas and tile underlay screeding works are now also progressing. Tiling is expected to start by mid-June.  As part of the Warren Showground/Racecourse Upgrade Project, works on the toilets are now complete.

male-Friendly Amenities Construction project, the Sporting Facilities Committee has requested that specifications include opaque perspex screening, instead of perforated mesh screening at the facility, to improve temperature control and deter insects. They have also requested that mechanical ventilation equipment is included within the changerooms. The tender will include a mandatory optional additional works schedule to address this requirement. To ensure the community is aware of the timeframe for completion on the Carter Oval Youth Sports Precinct Kiosk and Amenities, the Committee also resolved that a fi nal time “Gantt Chart”, including completion time, would be made public to the community. The contractor’s current program of works, has a project handover on August 31.

Big Mother’s Warren council joins Day surprise, innovative AI project with quintuplet lambs for farmer

The application allows councils to easily see the location of each issue detected by Asset AI, pull up images and severity ratings for defects, and receive an overall rating of the condition of the road network. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. Continued from Page 1 WARREN joins Griffith Council, Shoalhaven City Council, Canterbury-Bankstown Council and a Sydney-based Transport for NSW team on the project. Warren Shire Council Divisional Manager Engineering Services, Sylvester Otieno, said he submitted an expression of interest to join the innovative project and was very fortunate to have been accepted. “Asset AI provides a fantastic platform to monitor the condition of our vast road network,” Mr Otieno said. “As a small rural and remote council with severe challenges in attracting qualiﬁed staff, the platform would lessen the effort required in road inspection, thus ena-

bling our staff to be deployed elsewhere.” As well as monitoring and detecting defects, the platform uses a rating system to help maintenance crews determine which defects are most critical and should be addressed fi rst, to ensure the overall risk to road users and the community is reduced. Canterbury-Bankstown and Griffith councils were the fi rst councils to trial the Australian-fi rst technology with data from Asset AI cameras on vehicles including street sweepers and utes feeding near-real time road condition updates into the platform. The Liverpool Plains Shire and Mid Coast Shire Council are also expected to join the project this year, with another 48 local councils across NSW also interested.

By HARRIET GILMORE ONE local farmer had a special surprise on Mother’s Day last month, when a maiden ewe delivered quintuplet lambs! Farmer Vicki Parker, whose property is 20 kilometres from Warren, said that although it was unfortunate that one of the five lambs didn’t survive, the fact that five were born in the fi rst place, was extremely rare, especially for a fi rst-time mum. Ms Parker said the ewe and her four lambs are doing well now, with mum doing a great job of rearing the surviving quadruplets. Multiple births in sheep are very common, but the likelihood of quintuplets is thought to be extremely rare, with media reports on previous quintuplet births, describing them as “one in a million” occurrences.

Political News & Opinion ROY’S OY’S OUND-UP ROUND-UP Comment mment by ROY Y BUTLER, State te Member for Barwon

G’day folks, Winter is here, the budget is almost upon us and tax time looms. Last week was a sitting week but this week I will be back out in the electorate, before returning for budget week next week; usually one of the busiest weeks of the parliamentary year. I will be paying close attention to what the treasurer has in store for Barwon.

Meeting with Bogan Shire Council While out on the road recently, I had a meeting with the mayor and engineer of Bogan Shire Council. The council is having problems with what to do about a river cross-

ing at Monkey Bridge. It was created decades ago, possibly by the council, but now NSW Fisheries wants it modiﬁed. They also have a dangerous level railway crossing at Hoskins Street that needs a safety upgrade, they are badly in need of more before and after school care, and need to fund replacement of lights on their airstrip. We have been working with the council on these issues and I will continue to talk to the relevant ministers about possible solutions.

announced that they were planning to close Coonamble’s Greyhound Racing Club track as part of their ‘Track Safety and Welfare Strategy 2024’. After hearing the news, I contacted GRNSW and, after discussions with the CEO, he conﬁ rmed that they will hold the 2024 October Long Weekend Carnival, Coonamble’s biggest greyhound racing ﬁ xture of the year. Rob Macaulay, CEO of GRNSW, has committed to meeting with the community and the club to discuss.

Greyhound Racing in Coonamble

Secondary Student Leadership Program

Every town needs its special events. In regional towns events like greyhound racing add more than just a bit of local colour to a community, they bring money and people to the town, beneﬁting local businesses. They are also important socially, as a place for people to meet and to mix with people who share their passion for the sport. The week before last, Greyhound Racing NSW (GRNSW)

Every year Parliament of NSW plays host to student leaders from schools around the state as part of the Secondary Student Leadership Program. Something I always look forward to is chatting with students from schools in my electorate when they come to learn about our democracy and how it works. They ask great questions and have a strong understanding of key issues in their communities.

I met with young leaders from Dunedoo Central School, Nyngan High School, Coonamble High School, Warren Central School, Gilgandra High School, and Condobolin High School.

Cost of Living Notice of Motion While we all know that the cost-of-living crisis has affected the entire state, it is obvious that it has had a much bigger effect on people in regional areas than those who live in the big cities. In the bush we pay more for petrol and also have to use more of it because of the distances we have to travel and without as many public transport options as they have in urban areas. The distances also add to the cost of groceries, services, hiring tradespeople, seeking medical treatment and a range of other things. This week in the parliament I moved a motion recommending that the disproportionate impact of cost-of-living rises on regional areas should be factored in whenever the gov-

Be Fire Safe this Winter During the sitting week I had a chance to catch up with some members of Fire and Rescue NSW, who came to parliament for a special event. They were accompanied by Gandalf (affectionately known as Gando) the accelerant sniffer dog, who was, not surprisingly, the centre of attention. But there was a very serious intent to the event. Fire and Rescue came to talk about their ‘Be Fire Safe’ campaign for winter 2024. Winter often sees a spike in home fi res as well as fi re related injuries and fatalities. Among the things they are urging everyone to do is to check fi re alarms, also to prepare an escape plan in case a fi re breaks out, to be safe in the kitchen and to beware when charging old, failing, or faulty lithium-ion batteries. Fire and Rescue are urging everyone to prepare a checklist.

FAITH MATTERS

Satisfying rest, after a hard day By ANNITA CAMPBELL

The Warren RFS brigade has outgrown their current home on Readford Street, which is shared with the SES. PHOTOS: WARREN STAR. By HARRIET GILMORE A new home for the Warren Rural Fire Service (RFS) is again being investigated after previously, in principle, approved land on the corner of Wilson and Chester Street was withdrawn by Warren Shire Council. This is the second time proposed land has been withdrawn, after the RFS declined land offered by council at the Airport due to the implications it would have on volunteers and response time having to travel out of town. Council and the RFS have been working for a number of years to ﬁ nd a new home for the Warren brigade, as they currently share a site with the

SES on Readford Street which does not have sufficient space to support both emergency service operations. At the April Ordinary Council Meeting, council withdrew the previously approved Wilson Street land for use for the new RFS building due to “there being alternative lands and buildings available.” A development application was lodged for the Wilson Street site in November last year. Council received a number of objections to the proposed land at Wilson Street by nearby residents, including concerns about the facility being built in a residential zone, noise, traffic congestion and suggestions there would be better suited loca-

The former Sayer’s Smash Repairs site is one of two new locations proposed by Warren Shire Council for the RFS. tions in town. Despite council being well within their legal rights to use this land for the new RFS development, they consequently decided a new site would be investigated. Warren Shire Council general manager Gary Woodman said the decision was made after discovering there was other sites that may be better suited. “Council took this direction as, after the initial approach by the NSW RFS, it was discovered that a number of other locations, at least two sites, may be available to use for the proposed facility that perhaps were a better ﬁt particularly, in regard to location and their land zoning as ‘industrial’. “So accordingly, council has

asked the NSW RFS to commence a process with myself to help identify suitable land and/or buildings in Warren that may be suitable for an appropriate facility to house the RFS Warren Central Brigade,” said Mr Woodman. A report in council’s April business papers suggests the two additional locations to be investigated are the location where Sayer’s Smash Repairs was previously housed, on Bundemar Street, and former location of MCC Hydraulics on Mabel Street. The April report states, “These facilities may be suitable for the Warren Central RFS Brigade however, no conversations have been held by Council Staff with the RFS to gauge their interest.”

A refreshing shower and a cold beer, after a hot day working in the summer heat. The deliciousness of falling into your own bed after a long trip away. Losing track of time in a good book, a captivating movie, or an amazing concert. Restful, reinvigorating, restorative moments. The kind that makes life sweet. Did you know these kinds of gratifying moments, are gifts from God? In Faith Matters, we’ve been rethinking the Christian God. Here is more food for thought: God invites us humans into an eternity of satisfying repose with him. The best kind of rest. Forever. Jesus said: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). God became a human for a while in the form of Jesus. He knows what it is like to feel the deep soul weariness, the physical and mental exhaustion, of being human. The rest, he says, he will give is beyond any we could get for ourselves. Rest from guilt, worry, being overwhelmed, sadness, sin, confusion. Rest from striving to work it all out. Perfect peace. It can begin now. Doesn’t this sound like a God you want to take up a request to come to? We come in prayer saying: “Jesus I take up your invitation. Here I am”.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK ral Member Federal for Parkes arkes

REDI.E’s contract terminated LAST week I was extremely disappointed to fi nd out that the National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA) is cutting the funding to Indigenous service provider Regional Enterprise Development Institute (REDI.E). REDI.E’s contract will be terminated at the end of October because it does not meet the criteria for an extension of its Community Development Program (CDP) service agreement. I met with staff from Linda Burney’s office, the minister for Indigenous Australians, and representatives from the department for clarification on this decision last week and I was not satisfied with the explanation they provided, which is that the contract was terminated due to minor compliance issues. I just cannot understand how the NIAA can justify this when it’s clear that REDI.E is making a positive difference in communities throughout western NSW. This is going to

create a signiﬁcant gap in services, affecting the livelihoods of about one thousand Indigenous people in my electorate. For a government that claims to be so supportive of Indigenous Australians, why would they cut the funding of an organisation that is actually helping to close the gap? I spoke out about this in parliament last week. To read the full transcript of my speech, visit my website.

times be the difference between life and death in rural and remote Australia. The 2024 Regional Telecommunications Review is currently underway and accepting submissions. It’s important that our region’s voices are heard and reﬂected in the review. If you haven’t already had your say, I encourage you to make a submission or complete a short survey. I have always been passionate about securing better mobile coverage across the Parkes electorate and this review is a great way to make sure our message is received loud and clear. Submissions are open until the end of next month.

Questions over water issues I took the opportunity in parliament last week to further question water minister Tanya Plibersek about water buybacks and the Wilcannia weir, putting to her the concerns I have about water in the Parkes electorate. I asked the minister whether the water that has been over-recovered from the Macquarie and Gwydir valleys will be returned to the productive pool for those communities or whether it will be rolled into the 450 gigalitres (GL) of additional environmental water that is going to South Australia. I also questioned how much of that 450GL the minister plans to purchase from our northern basin, because to get just one megalitre (ML) across the border to South Australia, you’d need to purchase 16ML of water from the top end of my electorate. Another issue that has been

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Accolades to Warren Shire, so much to see and admire ON a recent trip to the Central West of NSW, I had the pleasure of staying in the town of Warren, camped on the banks of the majestic Macquarie River. As a tourist and visitor, I was astounded at the array and variety of public facilities on offer to residents of your quiet rural town. From the exceptionally well-maintained playing ﬁelds and sporting facilities; modern synthetic tennis and netball courts; the magniﬁcently curated parklands adjoining the hospital, complete with old, but young Baobab Trees; the marvellous museum; impressive cultural and arts buildings; the awesome water park — the pool and buildings are currently being renovated for the summer season; and adjacent picnic precinct, which includes the splendid skate facilities. All these areas were well-maintained and manicured to a treat. Accolades to Warren Shire and their outdoor staff, whose fastidious attention to their community holdings, was a treat to behold. I would think that there would be very few, if any towns in Australia, of comparable size, that would have the wonderful array of public facilities on offer to the residents of Warren shire. The obvious pride is highly-evident. There for all to see and admire. Well done to all concerned. Regards and thanks, Bob Piper Crescent Head, NSW.

causing great angst in my electorate is the change to the design of the new Wilcannia weir, which means the water level will be one metre lower than originally planned. The new weir has been jointly funded by the commonwealth and NSW governments. The change of the design has come from the NSW government, however I wanted to know whether the state has approached the commonwealth asking for more funding to build the weir to the original

height. And if so, how much have they asked for and would minister Plibersek be prepared to support that project? The Wilcannia weir will signiﬁcantly improve the reliability of the water supply for the community which will in turn boost the town’s overall amenity, but only if it’s built to the original proposal.

Proposed redistribution expected Friday The Australian Electoral Commission will release its proposed redistribution for NSW this coming Friday (June 14). The redistribution will mean the number of members in the House of Representatives will decrease from 47 to 46 in NSW, which means the boundaries of each federal electoral division in the state will change. The redistribution will impact the Parkes electorate, and I’m interested to see how it will change.

The 2024 review is being chaired by the Hon Alannah MacTiernan, former Western Australian Minister for Regional Development as chair of the committee, with the Hon Fiona Nash, Kristy Sparrow, Jessa Rogers and Ian Kelly forming the full committee. “Access to reliable

telecommunication is increasingly important for regional Australians, the Hon Mr MacTiernan said. “It is essential for keeping connected with family and friends as well as for business and access to health and education services. “We need to hear your stories about what is working and what is not. “While we will be travelling to dozens of sample communities across the country, we want to provide an opportunity for every regional Australian to have their say.

“The online survey is an easy way you can participate.” The short online survey provides a way for regional, rural and remote Australians to easily provide feedback on how they are experiencing telecommunications in their own communities. There are two other options for people to have their say: attending a face-to-face consultation in various towns or providing a submission via our website. The review, which takes place every three years, sees the Regional Telecommu-

nications Independent Review Committee examine the experiences of people in regional, rural, and remote parts of Australia with telecommunications delivery, as well as considering the unique needs of First Nations communities. Submissions and face-to-face consultations to date have provided feedback on a range of matters including the suitability of telecommunications during emergency situations, how emerging technologies could improve connectivity; and ways telecommunications can support

regional development. Input from the public helps the committee make ﬁ ndings and recommendations to government that address the needs of rural, remote and regional Australia. Previous reviews have seen a number of major initiatives announced and delivered, such as the Mobile Black Spot Program and the National Audit of Mobile Coverage. The online survey closes on July 31, 2024. To have your say, visit the Australian government’s infrastructure website.

RDA Orana host delegation to learn about Maranguka Regional Development Australia Orana (RDA Orana) hosted a delegation from the Gascoyne, Western Australia last week and visited Bourke and Brewarrina to learn ﬁ rst-hand about Maranguka, Bourke’s successful justice reinvestment initiative. The Gascoyne Region is located approximately 1000km north of Perth and includes the Carnarvon, Exmouth, Shark Bay and Upper Gascoyne local government areas. Despite covering an area of more than 135,000 square kilometres, it has

a population of less than 10,000 people. And communities of the Gascoyne face similar challenges and social issues as those in Bourke and Brewarrina. Yinggarda Aboriginal Corporation chair Tracey Tonga said Carnarvon in Western Australia was one of ten organisations to receive Federal Government funding in April 2024 under the justice reinvestment program. Maranguka is a collaboration between the Bourke Tribal Council, Just Reinvest NSW and the community of Bourke, launched in 2013.

The program aims to divert Aboriginal people away from the criminal justice system by investing in community-led initiatives that address the underlying causes of crime. It is the ﬁ rst Aboriginal-led place-based model of justice reinvestment in Australia. “Maranguka is a success story about how communities can work together with local police, organisations, education and health services and local government to drive local solutions and were happy to share their journey with us,” she said. The delegation from West-

ern Australia included: Gascoyne Development Commission principal regional development officer Kate Boston, Yinggarda Aboriginal Corporation chair Tracey Tonga. Yinggarda Aboriginal Corporation executive director Denise Cotterill and National Indigenous Australians Agency’s Naomi McMahon. The Federal Government has committed $79 million to supporting up to 30 community-led justice reinvestment initiatives in First Nations communities across Australia.

Demand for fodder still high, despite rain, says Rural Aid RAIN across four states has failed to dampen demand for fodder to feed drought affected livestock. Australia’s most trusted rural charity, Rural Aid, said the sigh of relief from farmers who received rain in the past week was almost audible such was the desperation of some; none more so than producers in south-western West Australia where the region had experienced its driest conditions on record.

“This rain could not have come at a better time given the circumstances producers had in front of them,” Rural Aid chief executive officer John Warlters said. “But we don’t expect the demand for fodder, or the challenge in sourcing it, to change in the short to medium term.” The challenge was still ahead of many farming families whose enterprises had received only light relief and where still hoping for

more rain in coming weeks. Across Victoria and NSW, Rural Aid counsellors continued to provide wellbeing support while discussions with industry continued regarding how Rural Aid could best support farmers above and beyond its “traditional” service delivery. “Rural Aid continues to

be active right across the country at this time providing hay for livestock, drinking water, and ﬁ nancial relief,” Mr Warlters said. “Our counsellors are particularly active in providing oneon-one support, but are also attending a wide cross-section of industry events to ensure they are visible and eas-

ily accessible to anyone that wants to chat.” In the past month, Rural Aid had coordinated 29 fodder drops across the country.

Razorbacks on the rampage; feral pigs on rise across regional NSW Farmers are reporting a fresh surge in feral pig numbers across regional New South Wales, prompting a call to escalate funding to ﬁght the State’s endemic feral pig problem. NSW Farmers President Xavier Martin said that with the State Budget set to be handed down this month, there was a golden opportunity for funding to get feral pigs under control as numbers again explode across western NSW. “There’s reports of feral

pigs weighing well-over 100 kilograms charging through the paddocks, trashing food crops and killing calves and lambs at the drop of a hat,” Mr Martin said. “These pests are bigger than the people trying to control them — and they are costing landholders many thousands of dollars in lost production and control costs that they simply can’t keep up with,” he added. Feral pigs are not only a threat to production, but as

vectors of livestock infections. “They’re super spreaders of disease, and reproduce at a rate that means we need to cull many millions a year to break the breeding cycle,” Mr Martin revealed So, we have a ﬁght on our hands, that we simply can’t face alone,” he argued. While recent efforts by the Minns Government to support baiting, trapping and aerial shooting of feral pigs had been warmly welcomed by farmers, Mr Martin warned funding

for pig control must be scaledup signiﬁcantly in this year’s NSW Budget, to get on top of the problem. “More than 77,000 pigs have been culled by the State’s feral pig program since October last year,” Mr Martin reported. “While this has made a dent in the population, we’ve still got millions of pigs ruining production on our prime agricultural land. The environmental and productive threat they pose, is now almost beyond ef-

fective methods of reduction,” he claimed. “Farmers have been outnumbered, paddocks have been destroyed, and despite our best efforts, no one-man band can get on top of these animals when the numbers are just so wildly out-of-control,” Mr Martin said. “If we want to fend off these pests for good, we need to see some serious funding for feral pig control in the NSW budget this June — or else we simply don’t stand a chance.”

Races at Gulgong WESTERN TERN N NG RACING ORT REPORT By COLIN Hodges

RACED at Gulgong, Sunday, June 9. Musical Affair, winner of the $150,000 CDRA Country Championship Qualifier at Mudgee earlier this year, took on and defeated a good standard line-up on Sunday in the 1200 metres Montrose Wines Gulgong Cup. The highly rated Gulgong annual meeting attracted a very big crowd and with 12 bookmakers operating, the Mack Griffith trained Musical Affair started the $2.70 favourite. Aggressively ridden by local jockey Jake Pracey-Holmes, the four-year-old mare Musical Affair quickly found the front from a wide barrier in the 10 horse field. Leading throughout, Musical Affair won by over two lengths from Hit The Rim (Zoe Hunt, $4) which ran on well to cut the top weight Foreign Brother (Ken Dunbar, $9) out of second place. Garry Lunn reached a significant milestone when Weave That Web won the fi nal event, the 1800 metres Benchmark 58 Handicap. This was the 500th winner as a trainer for Dubbo-based Garry Lunn who also won the race last year with the same horse. Ridden very well by apprentice Siena Grima, Weave That Web ($3.50 favourite) steadily made ground from midfield to reach the lead at the top of the straight. Exhibiting good staying ability on the heavy track, Weave That Web ($3.50 favourite) scored by almost four lengths from the gallant nine-year-old stablemate Careering Away, $7) with Beg Me (James Rogers, $11) battling on well for third. First leg of a Gulgong double for Garry Lunn was Jarmanagic, patiently ridden by apprentice Jack Baker in the 1000 metres Benchmark 50 Handicap. From near the tail of the field, Jarmanagic ($3.50 favourite) swept down the outside to beat Hampton Cove (Jessica Brookes, $6) and Eleni (Zoe Hunt, $10). Jack Baker had earlier won the 1000 metres Maiden Plate on Al’s Rose for Scone trainer Tom Ollerton. Unplaced at Dubbo on Friday, Al’s Rose ($11) led all the way when beating The Hoff (Zoe Hunt, $4.60) and Release The Spirit (Ashleigh Stanley, $4.40) at Gulgong. Muswellbrook trainer Carlos Antonio and apprentice jockey Julia Presits combined to win the fi nal race at Dubbo on Friday with $26 outsider Golden Cow and at Gulgong they won the 1200 metres Craigmoor Wines Cup-Class 2 Handicap with Time Ruler. Well supported in the betting ring, Time Ruler ($7) took the lead from Bupkis when turning for home and lasted to beat the strong fi nishing Any Marg’lldo (Ashleigh Stanley, $21) by a half neck with Jade Division (Jack Baker, $7) fi lling third place. Favourite backers were off to a good start at Gulgong when the Michael Mulholland, Dubbo trained Villeneuve ($2.30 favourite) responded to strong riding by Andrew Banks to come from midfield early and prove too good in the run home for Emerging Ballad, Jessica Brookes, $4.20) and Diamond Sun (Ken Dunbar, $4.20).

Sport Braith knocks away the competition

Robyn takes-out big win in Tish McAlary Trophy Day

WESTERN TERN N NG RACING ORT REPORT By COLIN Hodges STAR apprentice jockey Braith Nock has now won the feature races in the region this year for two-year-old gallopers following his win on debut maker Girrawheen in the Kings Hall Jewellers Showcase Silver Goblet on Friday, June 7 at Dubbo. During April, Nock won the Wellington Soldiers Memorial Club Wellington Boot on the Brett Cavanough-trained Fingers Hunter ($8.50) and at Dubbo he was aboard $41 outsider Girrawheen for Scone trainer Peter Bloomfield. The Damien Lane, Wyong-trained Singing Star had won the 1000 metres Silver Goblet Preview at Dubbo and on Friday over 1100 metres was again straight to the front from a wide barrier. Coming with a powerful run from well back, Girrawheen overwhelmed Singing Star (Ben Looker, $2.60 favourite) to win by over a length with Arambys (Mikayla Weir, $8.50) a halflength away third. Peter Bloomfield, who has only four horses in work, brought half the team to Dubbo and landed a winning double with You Have To Go and Girrawheen. Sweeping past the leaders in the straight, You Have To Go (Grant Buckley, $5 to $3.50) scored by four lengths from Grand Oyster (Georgina McDonnell, $26) and Palentino Swinger, Aaron Bullock. $2.15 favourite). Despite constant rain throughout the day and the racing surface being progressively downgraded from soft seven to heavy 10, the track at Dubbo gained further acknowledgement as being fair to all runners in wet weather. Whereas the above-mentioned Girrawheen and You Have to Go came down the outside to win, Allay (Mitchell Bell, $10) from near last on the hometurn fi nished strongly on the inside rail to beat Allande (Mikayla Weir, $11 and Stormy Pluck (Julia Presits, $21) in the 1300 metres fi rst Heat of the Dubbo RSL Winter Country Classic Qualifier. The Brett Cavanough-trained Allay will be joined in the Final at Dubbo on Sunday June 30th by Shen Gui, winner of the second Heat for Scone trainer Lou Mary.

Making it three wins from the last four starts, Dream Game was again impressive when beating a good quality field in the 1400 metres Elders Rural Dubbo Benchmark 82 Handicap. Trained at Coonamble by Cec Hodgson for Kate Willis from Collarenebri, Dream Game (Will Stanley, $9) worked home strongly from midfield to win by over a length from La Sante (Jean Van Overmeire ($16) and Osman (Mitch Stapleford, $12). The other winners were Compelling Truth (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $1.90 fav.), Dreambender (Aaron Bullock, $2.40 fav.) and Golden Cow (Julia Presits, $26).

Back to the footy; Castlereagh League Round Seven preview By BRYSON LUFF WITH just eight rounds remaining in the 2024 Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition, games begin to take on extra signiﬁcance at this time of year. This is especially so for sides that are battling to stay in touch with teams located further-up the competition ladder. One game in particular stands-out in this regard for Saturday, that being the Coonamble versus Gilgandra clash at Coonamble. It would be fair to say, that neither the Bears nor the Panthers have had a great start to the season thus far, with Coonamble yet to win a game and Gilgandra having had just the one victory. Whilst a loss to either side, would not necessarily mean the end of the road in 2024, it most certainly would make it all that more difficult to climb up the ladder to gain a semi-ﬁ nal berth. The Panthers are coming-off a very narrow 26-24 defeat by the Coonabarabran Unicorns, a game that they were more than entitled to win when they led 24-10 with just 10 minutes remaining on the clock. That loss, and the way it came about, could well come back and bite them at the pointy end of the year, but for now, they have to start winning games starting this Saturday.

Round Seven games to be played on Saturday, June 15 Dunedoo v Baradine (League Tag). Binnaway v Cobar (League Tag and Youth League). Coolah v Narromine. Narromine v Gulgong (Youth League @ Coolah) Coonamble v Gilgandra. Coonabarabran v Gulgong.

Of course, their task is no easy one, it never is for anyone trying to upset the Grizzlies on their home turf and, while

the Bears were well-beaten by the Narromine Jets in Round Six, they always lift against the Panthers, especially when playing on front of their home crowd, with a tough battle anticipated. The Coonabarabran versus Gulgong game also stands-out as a match in which the Gulgong Terriers, in particular, need to register a win if they are wanting to defend their 2023 premiership. At the moment, they are placed in ﬁ fth position on the ladder but a loss on Saturday, accompanied by a win to Gilgandra, would see the two teams on equal points at the halfway mark of the competition. The match of the round will be played at Coolah, where the ‘Roos will be defending the Boronia Cup against the Narromine Jets. Apart from seeking to retain the silverware, the ‘Roos will also be out to defend their impeccable 2024 record which, to date, has them undefeated. The game presents itself as a beauty, with both teams strong up-front and fast in the backs and, with a cool, dry day predicted weatherwise, it could well be an open and very entertaining affair. The League Tag game at Coolah, also looks like a top-notch affair with the undefeated Jets outﬁt up against the Coolah Flyers, who themselves have only been beaten once this year.

Western Plains go with new playing style, at Country Rugby Champ’s

DESPITE winning only one of their three games at the Country Rugby Championships in Tamworth over the weekend, the Western Plains representative side returned home pleased with their very competitive tournament. The Western Plains team consists of players from across the district, including Warren, Nyngan, Walgett, Bourke, Coonamble, Brewarrina, Gulargambone, and Cobar. This year, nine players from Warren were selected and made the trip over to Tamworth, including Jack Kelly, Stu McClean, Matt Kelly, Joe Hamblin, Isaiah Darcy, Mac Symons, Tom Storer, Dudley

Shepherd, and Will Ringrose. Team Manager, Blair Hooper said that, despite the two losses, his team including the Warren cohort, were very competitive at the tournament and played some fantastic rugby. The team were victorious in their ﬁ rst game against New England, winning 16-12 in a thriller with Warren’s Isaiah Darcy and Walgett’s Charles Friend the try-scorers with Friend also kicking two penalty conversions. Hooper said the boys were unlucky in their second game, going down to Central North 17-24. “We were down 10 points

in the ﬁ rst 10 minutes, which made it hard to bounce-back.” “The games are only short, just 50-minute games, but we only ended up going down by one try,” he recalled. The loss meant the team was out of contention for the ﬁ nals and the Richardson Shield on Sunday, and would instead be facing a tougher opponent, Mid-North Coast, in the playoffs. Western Plains went on to lose that match against MidNorth Coast, 10-0. “Sunday it was hard to backup after the loss, and playing all day Saturday.” Hooper said. “Mid-North Coast were also a much stronger team — they are in the top-tier pool.

“But we only went down to them by 10 points, which isn’t too bad,” Hooper said. Despite the losses, Hooper was pleased with the teams’ efforts, after introducing a different style of footy this year. “James Austin played a big part in a new style of footy for the team — rather than just our usual crash-andbash attitude. “This year, we had a bit of a game plan and structure, which came-off really well,” he said proudly. Although not winning on the scoreboard, their entertaining style did win admirers in the stands. “We actually had a couple of the NSW Country

team selectors come-up to us and say, it’s probably the best they’ve seen Western Plains ever play” Hooper revealed. “All in all, it was a really great weekend.” Hooper was also conﬁdent the sides’ strong showing at the tournament over the weekend, could result in a few of the players being in contention for selection in the NSW Country representative side, to be announced shortly. The regular Western Plains Rugby season continues this weekend, after a general bye for the June Long Weekend. A highlight game, involves Warren Pumas heading to Nyngan on Saturday to takeon the Bogan Bulls in the annual Barry Beach and Bomber Moxham Cup.
