Sporting bonanza IT’S a sporting extravaganza on the Adelaide Plains this week, with the massive Balaklava Cup carnival on today – and another big weekend of local football and netball finals coming up.

Up to 16,000 people are expected to cram the race course today as “party Balaklava” surges to life in scores of marquees lining the track, which is in tip-top condition.

Balaklava Racing Club CEO, Doug Hall, said the club is the best prepared it’s ever been.

“We believe today’s event could be the biggest in the club’s history,” he said.

“There’s been record ticket sales and with this great weather we are

anticipating more punters on the day.

“I urge locals and others to come and enjoy the day. There’s lots of room on the lawns and in the stand, plus plenty to eat and drink.”

Tickets at the gate cost $20 for adults.

Irish jockeys will also compete today in the first leg of the annual Australia v Ireland jumps challenge.

The challenge is played out over two events and for the first time this year will include a high-weight flats race as part of Cup day.

•THIS weekend the finals action continues on the Adelaide Plains, with preliminary finals being played at Long Plains, where Mallala clashes with Virginia in A grade

football. Last Saturday at Lochiel, Balaklava advanced to the APFL grand final with a 41 point win over Virginia in the second semi final.

On Sunday, Mallala despatched eternal foe United from the finals race, with a 24 point win in the first semi final at Two Wells.

Netball’s A1 preliminary final will be played between Balaklava and Mallala after Balaklava lost a thrilling second semi final by just one goal to premiership favourites, Hummocks.

Mallala won through to Saturday’s netball final by defeating Two Wells on their home court, 47-34. n It’s all in SPORT!

APFL medal

For the first time, the Plains Producer will award the top netballer as well as footballer with the Plains Producer medal at Two Wells on Saturday night.

Plains Producer managing director, Andrew Manuel, said: “This is the first time we have sponsored an association medal for netball – and both medals this year will be gold plated solid sterling silver which we hope will add extra prestige to the awards.”

“We are thrilled to be able to award

the best and fairest players who we write about in our paper each week.”

The Adelaide Plains Football League and Netball Association will hold their medal count at Two Wells on Saturday night after the preliminary finals at Long Plains. n Who will win?

NEWS v District

Buses R Us another disappointed loser SOUTH Australian bus company, Buses R Us, confirmed it had also lost its local school bus contracts to Victorian operator, Australian Transit Enterprises (ATE).

Company regional manager and second in charge, Will Eggenhuizen, informed staff last Friday its contracts will not be renewed at the end of this year.

It was an expected outcome, given recent results to other regional contractors around South Australia.

“We’re extremely disappointed at that, the same as everyone else around the state,” Mr Eggenhuizen said.

“I don’t think the government has gone into this with their eyes open and we just

Les Pearson reports: want to know why it hasn’t done an impact statement on this. I think that’s a big thing because no one knows whether these new contractors will employ locally or whether they will bring in imports.”

The company purchased the contracts only a few years ago in good faith they were long-term contracts, which would be renewed.

“But the government now, in its infinite wisdom, has decided to pull the plug on everything,” Mr Eggenhuizen said.

Buses R Us is a reasonably large company, including more than 50 buses and coaches in

its fleet and depots in Salisbury, Balaklava, and with vast operations in Port Augusta and Mildura. With this in mind, the company believed it would be able to submit an extremely competitive tender.

“We were asked to resubmit our tender twice, which we did – and we still weren’t successful,”Mr Eggenhuizen said.

Despite the decision by the State government, Mr Eggenhuizen believed the fight was not over, given recent adverse publicity of ATE. “I believe it’s not all done and dusted as yet, especially with what’s been happening the last few weeks on TV,” he said.

“I guess we just sit tight and wait and see

Tough questions over Balaklava FAMILY First MLC, Robert Brokenshire, has written to Education Minister, Jay Weatherill, raising the Balaklava school bus contract issue.

His letter asked: 1. Why has the Victorian company Australian Transport Enterprises been awarded the school bus contract for the Balaklava district?

2. How much cheaper (percentage

wise) was their bid for this service than that of the existing operators Mr Barry Taylor and Mr Garry Simon?

3. If Australian Transport Enterprises was not cheaper than the existing operators then why was it selected?

4. Did the evaluation of the various bids for this contract take into account the economic impact

on businesses in the townships of Balaklava and Port Wakefield? If so, what criteria was used? If not, why not?

5. Has Australian Transport Enterprises contributed money over the last three years to the federal and/or state Australian Labor Party or one of its affiliate enterprises? If so, how much money have they contributed?

WHAT YOU SAID:

what happens. We’ve done as much as we possibly can.”

Mr Eggenhuizen also sent his condolences to the smaller operators, who will lose their livelihood on the back of the government ruling.

“My heart goes out to smaller operators who have only one or two school buses,” he said. “They’ve got nothing now, the government is going to send them broke.

“They’re family-owned companies with family operators, what are they going to do now, join the dole queue?”

Mr Eggenhuizen added with all his industry contacts, he was yet to hear of a smaller operator be successful in the tender process.

Natasha Simon: “To see my father and uncle’s business taken away after so many years is devastating and shocking.”

Mandy Cocks: “This is an absolute disgrace!

We are not just losing their bus services, we have trusted them to get our kids to school safely on roads these drivers have been driving on for many years, and now we may be forced to place the safety of our kids in the hands of drivers not experienced in in this district.Not happy.”

Carolyn Cordon: “Will they be able to do a job anywhere near as good? Probably not. Shame!”

Council in protest to Minister over buses

riverton plans four day tour down under festival

EXCITED about the Riverton Tour Down Under are committee members (from left) Barb Stevens, Julie Matthews and Liz Calvett.

Let’s call it ‘Rivertour’ The Gilbert Valley region is getting vamped up for the 2012 Tour Down Under (TDU).

The Tour Down Under Stage 1 will pass through Riverton on Tuesday, January 17, with the town again hosting the Jayco Sprint, which will pass through about 1.48pm.

A meeting was held on Monday, August 15 to discuss possible activities and also form a sub-committee for the organisation of the event.

Members assigned to the committee are Julie Matthews, Gary Davis, Roz Rowett, Cheryl Koglin, Barb Stevens, John Glistak and Robert Driver.

The sub-committee for the Riverton stage of the TDU, is eager to put on a better event than last year, which scored them a Clare and Gilbert Valleys Council award.

The award, presented on Australia Day

2 www.plainsproducer.com.au

Sally Crowther reports: 2011, was given for the best community event of the year for Riverton’s ‘Wheelie Fun Day’, held in last years TDU. A range of ideas were discussed at the meeting on how Riverton next year could best maximise the town’s exposure throughout the event.

The sub-committee is looking at a four day spread from Saturday 14 to Tuesday 17.

Not only are they suggesting students could paint the IGA shop frontage with a bike theme, but also decorating the southern entrance to the town with tree plating and also manufacturing a new cycle or silhouette to be placed at the

entrance. An art exhibition will be on display at Scholz Park featuring local artists.

There will also be history walking tour booklets for sale, which are being prepared in conjunction with the Riverton Community Management Committee.

Other concepts are face painting, local and novelty bike races, group rides on the Rattler trail, a yellow brick road and also the idea of the ‘best dressed house in town’ competition.

The sub-committee will be holding meetings over the next few months, with the next one to be held next Monday September 5, from 7.30pm at Jules Cafe.

This is a huge undertaking by many who see this as an opportunity to promote this region and if you would like to be involved contact Julie Matthews on 0404 842 465.

WAKEFIELD Regional Council will write to the State government in support of local bus operators, Garry Simon and Barry Taylor, who lost their school bus contracts to Victorian-based Australian Transit Enterprises (ATE) last week.

Their contracts will conclude at the end of the year.

Two Central ward councillors, Owen Chapman and David Lamond, raised the issue at last Wednesday night’s council meeting, during open forum.

“I was so disappointed when I saw the front page of the local paper (Plains Producer, August 24),” Cr Lamond said.

“I was disgusted to see our two bus contractors had lost their contracts here in Balaklava. Those two men have provided a wonderful service to this community and I’ve never heard one word said against them.”

Cr Lamond said he would be surprised if ATE provided similar services.

Cr Chapman supported Cr Lamond’s proposal.

“I would also like to express my disappointment and concern,” he told council. “These locals have been, and still are, an integral part of our community.

“I realise a democratic process has been undertaken in the awarding of these contracts but feel sure our locals would have been very professional and competitive in the tendering process.”

Mayor James Maitland, accepted a motion from Cr Lamond to write to the Premier in waiting and current Education Minister, Jay Weatherill, voicing council’s displeasure of the State government’s decision.

The motion was carried unanimously.

Mr Maitland said the issue was raised at a recent Local Government Association State Executive meeting, given the situation is similar right across SA. “It will put locals who have been running bus services for all sorts of things across the community, out of business and nobody has got any idea about the people who are coming to take them on,” he said, “What are their values apart from running buses? Nobody knows.”

They take command BALAKLAVA CFS FINALLY GETS ITS DREAM SHED ABOVE: Fire engines will always attract young boys!

LEFT: Chris Cowan and CFS deputy chief officer, Andrew Lawson, raise the flag to open the centre.

BELOW: Wakefield regional Council CEO, Phil Barry, addresses the crowd.

COMMUNITY and CFS leaders at the opening (from left) WRC mayor, James mairland, Goyder MP, Steven Griffiths, WRC CEO, Phil Barry, Matt Wurfel, representing Nick Champion, CFS regional commander, John Hutchins, CFS deputy chief officer, Andrew Lawson, Light MP, Tony Piccolo, representing Emergency Services Minister, Kevin Foley and CFS Wakefield Plains group officer, Chris Cowan, who hosted the event.

THE new Wakefield Plains CFS command centre at Balaklava was officially opened on Sunday afternoon in front of about 120 locals.

Wakefield Plains group officer, Chris Cowan, hosted the event, which included guests from CFS management, State and Federal government departments and Wakefield Regional Council (WRC).

Balaklava CFS captain, Kevin Julyan, kicked things off with a speech outlinging the historical highlights of the local CFS group.

Mr Julyan also thanked all involved with building the new three-bay facility, which also boasts a brilliant regional command centre. “It will be a great asset for years to come,” he said.

Matt Wurfel, representing Federal Member for Wakefield, Nick Champion, paid tribute to the strong crowd in attendence.

“To have so many here today shows the strong support for the brigade in the community,” he said.

Les Pearson reports: Tony Piccolo, who took the place of Emergency Services Minister, Kevin Foley, touched on the importance of volunteers in the community. “Imagine your town without volunteers,” he said.

“Without them, you probably wouldn’t have a community – that’s the harsh reality.”

Member for Goyder, Steven Griffiths, then discussed the importance of the emergency services levy and its relationship in rural areas.

“It always has to be ensured that money is spent where the community demands it,” he said.

Mr Griffiths also mentioned the strong contingent of younger volunteers in the town’s CFS squad.

“Eighteen cadets, to me, sounds like Balaklava is a great place to volunteer,” he said.

WRC chief executive officer, Phil Barry, was another to touch on the importance of

local community groups working collaboratively to reach a common goal.

“I think it’s important this result might help both State and Federal governments appreciate the value of community groups helping each other,” Mr Barry said WRC mayor, James Maitland, added his thanks to the families of CFS volunteers, who put up with regular interruptions to family life throughout the year.

“Let’s remember them,” he said.

“It’s very important to acknowledge the role they play.”

CFS regional commander, John Hutchins, was particularly grateful towards those who form the fabric of the CFS volunteer base. “It’s the men and women who volunteer their time to help protect the community,” he said.

Finally, CFS deputy chief officer, Andrew Lawson, raised the organisation’s flag to officially declare the facility open.

Locals were then invited to peruse the new station and command centre, while enjoying an afternoon tea.

NEWS v District

Council to audit CWMS electric work WAKEFIELD Regional Council will request an independent audit into all electrical work on the waste treatment plant at Port Wakefield.

Councillors voted in favour of a motion

by Western ward councillor, Darryl Pain, to launch an audit following the submission of incomplete certificates of compliance by contractors who did the work on the plant.

Cr Pain said the original compliance forms not only lacked start and completion dates but they were also received in June this year, for work, which was supposedly finished in

Les Pearson reports:

September 2010. “Inspecting the certificates of compliance, some of them do not even have the completion or start dates of the work that was done,” he said at Wednesday night’s council meeting.

Cr Pain added compliance forms should be submitted within 30 days of the completion of work and an audit would cover council if any legal issues arose.

Acting WRC chief executive officer, Geoff

Sheridan, then revealed he had contacted Wallbridge and Gilbert after Cr Pain’s motion was submitted and requested the completed certificates of compliance.

Mr Sheridan said he received the completed forms at 4pm, just over two hours before the council meeting.

Cr Pain was left somewhat perplexed, given the incomplete forms were accepted by council in June, and once his motion was submitted, the completed forms arrived only a few days later.

“Seriously, I can’t understand how we

would have accepted those in the first place,” he said.

He pressed on with the motion regardless, citing the change of dates on the forms would not match the same documents sent to ETSA. “If that’s been altered and then sent to ETSA, council should have a look, it will cost us nothing, to protect ourselves,” Cr Pain said.

Under Cr Pain’s motion, the audit would be completed by the Office of the Technical Regulator, a free service if council submits a complaint form.

The motion was carried.

PT WAKEFIELD A 23-year-old Hamley Bridge man was clocked driving at speeds in excess of 150 km/h during one of several high-speed chases on Saturday night.

After Port Wakefield police requested the man to stop, he refused, engaging police in the chases.

Police pursuit was called off three times due to safety concerns, before the man was later arrested at his Hamley Bridge home.

He was charged with alleged assault of police, driving under the influence, driving in a manner dangerous to the public, exceeding the speed limit and engaging police in a pursuit to avoid lawful

apprehension. The man was granted police bail and his car was seized.

Vets warn of pet snakebite WITH Spring on our doorstep and warmer weather coming, local veterinarians are warning pet owners to be wary of pets being bitten by snakes.

The signs of snakebite vary depending on factors such as type of venom, location of bite and amount of venom injected.

Dogs are more commonly bitten on the face or jaw, cats on their paws.

It should be noted following a snake bite, the signs vary greatly depending on the dose of venom received.

DOGS: The Australian Venom Research Unit says dogs receiving low doses of snake venom may only show enlarged pupils and avoid bright sunlight for several days.

Dogs receiving larger doses may show drooling and vomiting within two hours, have enlarged pupils by four hours and develop muscle paralysis later.

Dogs receiving massive doses of venom, as from multiple bites, may begin vomiting in 5-30 minutes, be paralysed and have enlarged pupils in 2-4 hours, and can die 2-5 hours after being bitten.

The website Petalia.com.au says signs may include: Trembling, salivation, vomiting and depression; unsteadiness, hindleg weakness, dilated pupils and worsening paralysis; respiratory distress, red-brown urine, complete paralysis and coma.

Some dogs may collapse suddenly then appear to recover before showing above signs up to an hour later. Death can occur within 2 hours of snakebite, even within 30 minutes CATS: Dilated pupils are a warning sign. Progressive

weakness – first your cat may look like it is bunny hopping because it’s hindlegs are becoming paralysed Flaccid paralysis – weakness progresses to your cat becoming totally floppy, unable to stand and lying flat out, even unable to lift its head up.

If bitten, get your pet to a vet immediately. The only treatment for snakebite is for the vet to give anti venom through a drip and the sooner the treatment is started, the greater the chances of survival.

The type of anti venom given depends on the type of snake but if the snake is not seen or identified the choice

can be made on geographical area, snake venom detection kits or several anti venoms can be given.

Brown snakes (pictured) are most common in this region.

First aid includes keeping your pet quiet and applying a pressure bandage – just a firm bandage of any material over and around the bite site – if practical.

Never apply a tourniquet, wash or cut the wound site.

Carry your pet rather than let it walk to avoid speeding the spread of the snake venom.

Keep your yard free of long grass or piles of wood, rubbish or junk, and keep the rat and mice population under control (popular food for snakes).

We have the Wakefield, Light and Gilbert rivers facing continuing environmental issues,so maybe we should do something to look after them. But what should that be? Phone 03 9769 6488 for advice.

Buyers flock to Owen OWEN Owen Community Church held a car “boot sale” and market at Owen Hall on Sunday, August 21, to raise funds for the Uniting Church parish of the Adelaide Plains.

With more than 30 stalls booked by people from all over the Adelaide Plains, and room outside in the car park for car boots to be opened full of treasures, the day turned out to be a great success.

The weather was perfect for a Sunday afternoon drive and people were also lured by the aroma of sausages and steak cooking on the barby.

Afternoon tea was available throughout the afternoon and

was served by the ladies of Owen Church.

There was a good variety of stalls which included: cake and produce, white elephant, clothing, kid’s clothing and accessories, bric-a-brac, books, plants, paintings, photos on canvas, face painting, jewellery, tools, toys and more.

Organisers wish to thank stall holders and the community of the Adelaide Plains and surrounds who supported the day.

PS: There was a downside. To the person/s who stole the little red plastic rubbish bin with market signs on them on the Pinery/ Owen corner ... please return it.

Along with the children’s toys that were inside.

Tarlee’s ‘living art’

As part of the South Australian Living Artists (SALA) festival, Tarlee residents were given the chance to display their artwork at the Tarlee hall.

Many people came to view the artwork which was among other exhibitions throughout the Clare Valley region.

The local history room was also opened to the public allowing visitors to gain access to Tarlee’s history.

Local organiser, Sue Dunn, was happy with how it turned out.

“The display was a huge success with visitors coming from a wide area,” Sue said.

Students show mosaics An exhibition for the SALA festival opened at Hummocks Station in Snowtown earlier this month. About 70 people attended the event, which was opened by Lawline Wheaton.

The Wheaton family owned Hummocks Station from 1921 to 1977.

The exhibition boasts the work of several artists including Snowtown Area School students, who presented mosaics, which

reveal a striking colour of display from students in years four to 11.

Year 11 student, Kylie Harrold, has designed and created a mosaic tile titled ‘Federation’, which will eventually be positioned under the mail boxes at the front of the Snowtown supermarket.

Another year 11 student, Brodie McCormack created an opal look mosaic which will be placed at the Coober Pedy Post Office.

Owen organisations and individuals will have the chance to voice their ideas to improve the community as the Owen Development Action plan is to be reviewed in October and updated in November.

Anyone wishing to feed their ideas in to this plan can contact Rodney Reid as secretary of the Owen Community Centre committee (OCCC) through his letter box at the post office.

Skate Park funding on cash target FUNDRAISING for the Balaklava Skate Park has passed the half way mark of its target figure of $15,000 for cash and “in kind” donations.

Balaklava Area Committee (BAC) chairperson, Terry Williams, presented a project update to Wakefield Regional Council at last Wednesday’s council meeting.

BAC is overseeing the project in conjunction with Skate Park Steering Committee.

Mr Williams said the project has $8300 in the bank at the moment, not taking into account any “in kind” works which count towards the target amount and will come into being as the project develops.

“We’re well under way and I’d like to think we can continue raising funds and hopefully get beyond the target. My thanks to all who have donated,” he said.

A number of businesses, both local and those based outside the district, responded positively to letters sent out by the committee asking for donations which are tax deductible through an arrangement with the Australian Sports Foundation.

While hesitant to single any one donation out, Mr Williams touched on a $1000 contribution by Wattle Ridge developer, Colin Steinert.

“I was really impressed with that because here’s a person who has come to the town to develop a housing project who has recognised the town needs facilities like that to grow and offer to its young people,” Mr Williams said.

A number of fundraising initiatives are on the horizon.

Balaklava Lions intend providing some assistance from funds raised when the donut van is up and running

during the basketball season.

A fundraiser, competition and skate display will be held at Balaklava show, the winner of the competition to ride the first skate board on the park when it officially opens.

The committee has also done some cropping around the town, which is hoped to raise a significant figure, if the rain falls.

Mr Williams said a raffle and trading table is planned for late September and early October.

Add to that list, a town garage sale on October 22, sponsored by the Plains Producer, as well as a car wash, quiz night, cake stall and bottle and can donations.

While fundraising appears to be under control, Mr Williams said it was imperative to get younger people onto a formalised skate park committee.

“We need to start a real push for that,” he said.

A recent clean up day at the Lions park indicated solid support from the town’s youth.

“It was quite good to see so many young people and their parents out there,” Mr Williams told council.

He said facilities such as skate parks might not necessarily be a hive of activity all year round but that was no reason to doubt the project’s importance.

“Sometimes they may not get used as much as you would hope,” Mr Willaims said.

“I think we have to have these facilities to offer to our young people, who don’t necessarily go and play footy or cricket. It’s important we offer them a choice, as other towns do.”

Mr Williams added he hoped work on the park would start soon.

AN idea to develop wetlands in the Moody Estate area in Balaklava hinges on whether Balaklava Area Committee can get its grant application for $16,900 approved.

BAC chairman, Terry Williams, also updated Wakefield Regional Council on the progress of the wetlands proposal and the grant application to Northern and Yorke Natural Resource Management Board (NYNRM).

Mr Williams said initial feedback from NYNRM supported the possibility of establishing a wetland.

After a meeting earlier this year with NYNRM Water Officer Jennifer Munro, he told council she supported a feasibility study If the grant application is successful, the money will go towards the feasibility study for the project.

“If we don’t get grant mon-

ey, we’re back to square one, the project could just drop off the planet and never be talked of again,” Mr Williams said.

“If we do get it, we’ll proceed to see what happens.”

Mr Williams believed the feasibility study could also be used to learn more about the Wakefield River and its effect on the area during stormwater flows or a flood event.

“What I’m hoping we would be able to do is utilise some aspects of the feasibility report to investigate that area further,” he said.

“While we might be looking at a wetlands, I’m hoping we can also tackle other aspects of water overflow and typography of the land, those sorts of things. “(The December flood) was a bit alarming to some people.”

He hoped to have an answer on the grant application by next month.

Balaklava Area Committee outlines plan

LUCY Radowicz packs her bag for London.

Lucy’s bound for the House of Lords Former Balaklava girl Lucy Radowicz is off to the UK for an experience of a lifetime.

University of Adelaide student, Lucy, 21, is taking her place in the House of Lords in London, to represent Australia at September’s Commonwealth Youth Parliament.

The fourth-year arts and law student will join 100 delegates from the 54 Commonwealth countries at the event from September 6-10.

“I’m extremely excited.

It will be great to meet new people and see the different opinions and points of views on a range of subjects,” Lucy said.

The five day meeting will teach delegates and debate issues of global concern.

“We will also be given a draft of the Climate Change Bill, be attending committee meetings and get a look at the

Sally Crowther reports: full parliamentary process,” she said.

Lucy, who is currently a law clerk and legal secretary at Swan Family Lawyers, was selected after completing an university internship at State Parliament.

With a promising career ahead of her in law, Lucy admits it’s something she has always wanted to do.

“I was really fortunate to do Legal Studies at school, I’ve always been fascinated with the interaction between parliament and the government,” Lucy said.

speaking champion.

Incredibly, Lucy will be leaving London as her elder sister Emma arrives.

Lucy has extended her stay by a few days to sightsee, and she will cross paths with Emma, who will arrive for her own adventure.

Emma, 25, has purchased a one-way ticket to the UK to pursue her dream career in marketing.

“I’m not sure what I will do, where I will live or how long I will stay, but it will be a great experience,” Emma said.

Having previously spent time in the UK on a university exchange, Emma has always been keen to go back.

“I’m really excited to enhance my skills and work in a different country,” Emma said. Emma will arrive in London on September 12 and see where life takes her.

WAKEFIELD Regional Council will wait until next month’s meeting to consider pledging in principle support behind the Shamus Liptrot Memorial Trail project, an initiative of the Balaklava Area Committee (BAC).

BAC chairman, Terry Williams, presented project details and timeline to council at last Wednesday’s meeting.

The trail is anticipated to start from the existing Lions walking trail on the eastern edge of Balaklava and eventually reach Halbury, Shamus’home town, via the now disused rail corridor.

From there, the trail would ideally head to Hoyleton, again following the railway corridor, before passing through the Skilly Hills to join with the Riesling Trail.

However, the initial stage one phase of the project is to get the trail to Balaklava Golf Club.

Mr Williams told council he had discussed the project with several organisations, including the controllers of the old rail corridor, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Regional Development Australia, and had sought advice from Clare and Gilbert Valleys Council, which helped create the Riesling Trail.

He said the trail would honour the memory of Shamus (pictured), an avid cyclist who fought adversity for many years following a cycling accident, touching thousands of people, from all over the nation.

“There was a great outpouring of emotion when Shamus passed and it was something rarely seen in this town.

It had an impact on everybody,” Mr Williams said.

While actual costs of the project are unknown at this stage, with WRC infrastructure services manager, David Hassett, currently preparing the figures, Mr Williams said there were a number of cost saving measures already planned.

He believed construction costs would be eligible for support through grants.

“We need to get serious grant money

Les Pearson reports: to be able to get this project completed,” he said.

Time was also of the essence, with an aim to have the first section of the trail opened by May 2012 to mark the anniversary of Shamus’ passing.

Given the trail would attract usage from many people for a number of reasons, Mr Williams felt it could also subsequently attract grants from a variety of sources.

“It’s got health components, leisure, tourism potential; it’s even got links to seniors and veterans grant applications,” he said.

“Once we get in principle support, we would start the process of sourcing funding, including those grant applications – though the first stage (to the golf club) probably would need to be completed without grant funding.”

Cycling SA has already indicated its support for the trail but the project first needs an initial tick of approval from council before any work can begin.

“What I’m asking council ... is to consider in principle support, then we can discuss financing plus budgeting arrangements,” Mr Williams said.

He acknowledged there was no provision for the project in the 2011/2012 council budget.

“However, we can’t budget for tragedy,” Mr Williams said.

He said the trail could become the next major project for the town and be seen as an item of progress.

“We haven’t seen a lot of community projects in the town itself for a few years,” Mr Williams said. “I think this trail could be the next strong community project.”

Council resolved to wait until a report was published in next month’s agenda to then decide on its support for the trail project.

‘Cadel’ rides into Wasleys Cadel is coming to Wasleys. Truly!

And it’s a fair bet he will be kept very busy – but not riding a bike. Cadel is a ram named after Australian cycling hero, Cadel Evans, who won the Tour de France in July.

He will be arriving tomorrow at Ashmore White Suffolks at Wasleys.

Ashmore partner and cycling enthusiast, Troy Fischer, thought the name suited the ram – in both behaviour and purpose.

Cadel was purchased from Barry Lang, who runs the Langley Heights White Suffolk stud in Oberon, NSW. “We called the ram Cadel because he likes ‘riding’ ewes in the mountains and on the flats in Wasleys,” Troy said.

The Fischer family, who run Ashmore White Suffolks, have been searching for the best prime lamb genetics across Australia.

Cadel was selected by the Fischers’ for his ability to produce progeny with low birth weight as well as being a trait leader for weaning weight, post weaning weight and post weaning eye muscle.

“We used him in an artificial insemination program this year and marked 30 lambs from 15 ewes, which is 200 per cent lambing, a magic result really!” Troy said.

Ashmore is hosting an open day on Saturday for stud and commercial clients to inspect this year’s sale team.

“They’ve got standards but in the middle of winter, with large machinery out there, you are going to get ponded water, it’s inevitable,” he explained.

Mr Blight said exceptional circumstances led to the lack of coverage of waste at Rhynie.

“It’s not a high activity facility, but because there was a lot of rubbish that came in after the flood in December, we have now got a stockpile of material we have to cover – and that was one of the things we got caught short on,” he said.

About 3000 square metres of rubbish was deposited at the Rhynie facility following the flood event, exceeding the amount of available fill on site to cover the waste.

Mr Blight said council would continue working towards satisfying the EPA demands, regardless.

“We are looking at ways we can improve those things,” he said.

“The main issue is the dumps are being closed and we’re working towards that plan.”

He said the closure of the Clare dump was imminent, while considering the extra work needed at Rhynie, council was seeking an extension of the timeline for its closure to 2013.

CLARE and Gilbert Valleys Council has responded to concerns from the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) over breaches of licence conditions at Clare and Rhynie waste depots.

EPA officers inspected the dumps last month with CGVC works manager, Grant McKenzie, concluding there were non-compliance issues at both sites.

These issues included ponded water at the dump sites and waste coverage, at the Rhynie facility.

CGVC chief executive officer, Roy Blight, said council has issued a response to the concerns and felt it had addressed them adequately.

“We provided a report them and to date we believe they would be happy with that,” Mr Blight said. “There were a few issues they would like to be better dealt with and we’ve got them in hand.”

The inspections were made as council is working towards closing both dumps in anticipation of opening the waste transfer facility, adjacent to the Clare dump site.

Mr Blight said while he accepts the EPA works to its guidelines, some flexibility and understanding during the inspections could have been appropriate.

Depression; look for the signs DEPRESSION in dogs can have serious and potentially life-threatening consequences that could be made worse by long periods of isolation.

While some people are sceptical of the existence of depression in animals, Dogs NSW spokesperson, Dr Peter Higgins, believes it does exist in dogs, and that prevention is the key to avoiding it.

“While our pet dogs are an important part of the family, the end of school holidays, for example, means less people at home and dogs often miss out on regular activities and socialisation,” said Dr Higgins.

“Altering the routine of a dog can have disastrous effects.”

Causes of depression in dogs depend on the dog’s individual situation, but can include undergoing an unwanted change of scenery, death of a companion, experiencing boredom from extended periods of isolation, and lack or disruption of a proper exercise regime.

Symptoms of depression can include an unusual increase in amount of sleep, withdrawal from social activities with other dogs and the family, loss of appetite and a general lack of enthusiasm.

Treatments are available from local veterinarians, and natural alternatives such as herbs and homeopathic blends can also be used with, or instead of, conventional antidepressant drugs.

It is important that the first step for dog owners is to discuss their pet’s individual circumstances with their veterinarian in order to take appropriate, timely, effective action.

“People need to keep an open mind about the results of depression in dogs,” Dr Higgins said.

“The good news is that; given time, treatment and a bit of TLC, a depressed dog will eventually get back to normal.”

It’s ‘more than just a meal’

Planning policy shake-up may benefit ‘new’ Roseworthy

Sally Crowther reports: Hamley Bridge volunteer Moreen Schroder will be amongst other local heros of Meals on Wheels (MOWS) services across Australia, who will step into the national spotlight today to mark national Meals on Wheels Day. Their enormous contribution to their community is celebrated annually, recognising the work of the volunteers.

Alongside her husband Allen, Moreen has been involved with the Hamley Bridge MOWS for the past 10 years.

“It’s a great organisation and it’s something I really enjoy,” said Moreen.

This year’s national day theme is, ‘More than just a meal’ and Moreen believes that is exactly the case.

“Not only do you drop off meals, but you can stop and chat to people,and this can make their day.

“It’s a privilege to be fit and healthy to be able to do this, unlike some of the people we take meals to,” Moreen said.

MOWS has 100 branches located throughout South Australia, and their 10,000 volunteers deliver 5,000 meals per day.

In 2010, MOWS delivered over 1,200,000 meals to their 10,500 clients.

Australian Meals on Wheels Association President, Leon Holmes said the day was about celebrating the efforts of volunteers.

“The strength of the organisation comes from our volunteers and the incredible work they do,” Mr Holmes said.

As a volunteer, Moreen believes National Meals on Wheels day is a great way to support and encourage volunteers and those who are thinking about getting involved.

“It’s just something we can give back to the community,” Moreen said.

Services are always looking for new volunteers to contribute just a few hours a fortnight.

Australia to provide greater transparency and restore public confidence in development processes.

In a recent speech to the Urban Development Institute of Australia, Mr Rau said local planning policy was “dishevelled, disjointed and inconsistent” and fixing this problem was the key to a better planning environment.

This included: • An end to the use of Major Project status to push through urban developments.

• Major changes to the Residential Code to simplify requirements and streamline approvals, and • An overhaul of the zoning system, including reducing the number of zone categories from more than 600 to 27.

Mr Piccolo said it was clear the State government has been listening to the concerns of local communities and local councils and this policy announcement reinforced the State government’s policy to ensure infrastructure was delivered within a timeframe when communities needed it.

“The policy announcement reinforces the clear intention of the 30 year plan, in that in responding to population growth, land should be released in an orderly manner to ensure we can deliver the services required,” he said.

“A key element of the 30 year plan was to ensure community infrastructure could keep pace with increases in demand.

“It reflects the State government’s view we need to build communities, not just land divisions.”

“The Minister has made it clear no new areas would be rezoned for urban development in the absence of infrastructure plans and financial commitments.”

LOCAL MP for Light, Tony Piccolo, has supported planning policy announcements made recently by Urban Development and Planning Minister, John Rau. The proposed Roseworthy town development was one issue at the core of Mr Piccolo’s opinions.

Mr Piccolo said the announcement supported comments he had repeatedly made in State Parliament on how the planning for growth process could be improved.

“The Minister’s comments reinforce my view development should not be allowed to proceed unless agreement had been reached between various stakeholders on the delivery of infrastructure,” Mr Piccolo said.

“This has been my consistent view since the Gawler East development was first mooted.”

As reported in the Plains Producer, Mr Piccolo delivered a speech in State Parliament in early July about the proposed Roseworthy development in which he stated his concerns in two areas – provision of Just-in-Time infrastructure and employment.

He told parliament infrastructure would require major investment by the developer or developers and appropriate support from state and local government.

“Accordingly, both state and local government will need to know the extent of the infrastructure required to ensure future budgets cater for it,” he said.

It was his view both public transport and road transport needed to be fully planned and budgeted Mr Rau promised a major shake-up of planning in South

Mallala’s centre of service

THE new owners of Mallala Fuel and Fodder are keen to build the business to service the community, but they require local support.

Norm Dicks and Fay Coster began running Mallala Fuel and Fodder on July 1.

The couple moved to a property just outside Mallala where they run sheep and do a small amount of cropping after running a farm at Wandering, Western Australia, near the rural centre of Narrogin.

It’s the first retail business the couple has run but things are coming along nicely.

Mallala Fuel and Fodder is associated with Perry’s Group, a local fuel distributor based in Crystal Brook and Kapunda.

FAY and Norm offer new tyres and tyre repairs as well as fuel, fodder and a big range of hardware and gardening products.

The business also stocks a wide range of well-priced fodder, a line Norm and Fay are looking to grow over time.

Norm said the fodder prices are as competitive as other outlets in surrounding areas.

While fuel and fodder are the main lines for the business, Mallala Fuel and Fodder also stock a

huge range of hardware and gardening products at excellent prices.

Norm said they have also invested in new tyre machinery, including tyre balancing and tyre changing machines.

The business also stocks a wide range of new tyres and offers a puncture repair service.

“For those who work

during the week, we supply and fit tyres at the weekend but bookings are essential,” Norm said.

Top all that off with a wide range of wellpriced stormwater pipe and fittings, at both 90mm and 75mm sizes.

“We’re like a one stop shop,” Norm said.

“What we don’t have in stock we are happy to order in to save that trip to town.”

Opening times are weekdays; 6.30am to 6pm, Saturday 7.30am to 4pm and Sunday 8am to 4pm.

Early settlers had a ‘whale of a time’ Heritage Highlights

Today the whales and seals in Australian waters are protected, and tourism has developed in many of the areas where these creatures are easily viewed from the shore or on boats. Severe penalties are imposed on anyone caught harming them. We shudder at the thought of it, but unfortunately, whaling and sealing were once part of the “normal” activities along our South Australian coastline.

The sealers came first, with Captain Pemberton from New York setting himself up on Kangaroo Island in 1803, even building a schooner while he was there. The island became a centre for sealing and Port Lincoln also played an important role, being visited “for sealskins and the salt in which to preserve them.”

Then there were the whalers. in the early days before official white settlement, the whaling stations were being established. Even the

by Norma Schopp

emigrants on the first SA fleet in 1836 were a part of it - on arrival at Kangaroo Island, it was envisaged they would take part in whaling activities.

If whaling was your ‘occupation,’ your activity would be a bit like this: sharp-eyed spotters would locate the whales from the beach, then boats would chase and harpoon the whales, hauling them back to shore where the ‘processing’ would take place - the blubber was stripped from the carcass and boiled down to make oil for lamps and soap, then the whalebone would also be ‘harvested’ and used for stiffening clothing. The spent

carcasses were either left to rot on the beaches or, hopefully, the tide would wash them out to sea.

Two of the earliest whaling stations were at Encounter Bay and Spalding Cove. In 1837, the South Australian Company set up its station at Rosetta Head in Encounter Bay; at the same time Captain Blenkinsop, a South Seas whaler, established a station near Granite Island.

Much rivalry followed. Captain Blenkinsop and Sir John Jeffcott (the colony’s first judge) drowned in a whaleboat accident; and the SA Company lost two of its vessels, the John Pirie and the South Australian, in shipwrecks.

In 1839, the two companies joined forces but poor management and inexperienced crews saw little profit. Despite this, Encounter Bay was a busy place; “timber was brought by bullock teams from an inland saw-pit to a building slip op-

its name because the song’s music, composed by Alex North in 1955, was used in a film in the same year, entitled “Unchained” – thus, it became the melody for Unchained.

However, the winners of quirky song names aren’t necessarily in the pop arena, with its country music counterparts staking the claim with some classics.

Then there’s the music purists, who know the official title to every song ever made.

So, when someone refers to the song as the wrong title, they snap, quoting the correct title in a rather stuck-up manner.

Take the song “Don’t Look Back in Anger” by Oasis, for example. I’ve seen it labelled as “So, Sally Can Wait” on iPods, Stereophonics’ anthem, “Dakota”, is regularly called “The One” by the ignorant music follower.

For the more mature punters playing at home, the song “Unchained Melody”, made popular by The Righteous Brothers in the 60s, is a commonly misnamed tune. The song never actually features the words “unchained melody” at all. Like all of these oddly named songs, there is a reason behind the strange title.

posite Wright Island and the boats, when completed, were launched at high tide. Huts, try-works for boiling down the blubber, and storehouses were set up near the shore.”

The most successful whaler was Captain John Hart.

In 1841, however, the South Australian Company withdrew from the station at Encounter Bay and by about 1864, the industry closed down; an attempt to revive it in 1870-71 failed.

Other smaller whaling stations were set up at Thistle Island and Sleaford Bay, but here whales were scarce and many men deserted, forcing the stations to close.

The whaling industry had produced SA’s first exports but it never fulfilled the early settlers’ hopes of prosperity.

NEWS v District

Owen and others out to attract RV’s

Farming land sold

Self-contained camper vehicles will now be more common in our local areas due to a new overnight site in Owen, and “dump stations” present in Balaklava, Dublin and Snowtown.

After a big tidy up at the Owen oval, it is now officially recognised as a place where camper vehicles can stay.

Community Officer of the Wakefield Regional Council, David Woodroofe, believes this will attract more tourists.

“The town had one RV stay overnight and the tourists said they were really impressed with the location and quietness,” Mr Woodroofe said.

While there has already been a tidy up, more work is needed.

“The local community committee is having a working bee to tidy up the area. Vandalism has been rife in the toilets and grandstand area,” he said.

While the Owen site does not presently have a “dump station” for camper vehicles, there are now sites at Dublin, Balaklava and since last week, Snowtown.

“Dump stations” – where travellers can empty contents of effluent holding tanks – are seen as important town tourism drawcards for the increasing number of “grey nomads” travelling regions.

Farming land south of Balaklava has been sold for a combined value of $3,487,500.

The total 2,159 acres were sold in 5 separate lots which made up the former estate of LJ Klingner.

Three buyers were involved with the auction, with one buyer purchasing three lots.

Chris Wardle, from LJ Hooker in Moonta, was involved in the auction day last Friday at the Balaklava Sports Club.

“It was a very successful auction, and there was a great deal of interest shown,” Mr Wardle said.

Chris said executors of the estate were expecting a higher result.

“They did have high expectations, but considering the current world economic situation, the market is tough, even with rural property” Mr Wardle said.

Packed with love

Members from the Mallala Uniting Church Ladies fellowship met at the church last week to pack ‘boxes of love’ for the Samaritan’s Purse.

This program has changed the lives of children through Operation Christmas Child since 1993, bringing joy and hope to children in desperate situations across the world.

This is the second year the

fellowship has met and spent the afternoon packing shoeboxes which will be sent to needy children throughout South East Asia, in time for Christmas.

Having filled more than 80 boxes, many of the ladies spent the last few months knitting or sewing items suitable for young children.

Toys and other items such as toothbrushes, soap or pencils and books which our children all take

for granted, were also included.

For more details on Operation Christmas Child go to operationchristmaschild.org.au.

Warnings as our pest season again threatens Subterranean termites or “whiteants” are a highly destructive timber pest, causing major structural timber damage to domestic and commercial buildings in South Australia.

Recent industry surveys suggest about one third of all unprotected properties in South Australia are subject to attack by subterranean termites.

Most homes are at risk in South Australia in built-up urban areas, especially if well established gum trees are near the building – within a 100 metre radius.

The problem is getting worse: Severe termite damage to Australian homes is on the increase since the removal in 1995 of the long lasting soil barrier chemicals; the more common use of softwood building and other landscaping timbers that termites find irresistible, such as, hardwood timber mulch and railway sleepers on the ground.

Other important factors promoting termite colony development include automatic watering systems, landscaping and maintenance that encourage termite activity and inappropriate

building design that allow hidden termite entry into a building.

If you find swarming termites, it is a sure DANGER sign a large termite colony nest is close-by, and your home is at high risk of a severe termite infestation. If so, you should contact one of the advertisers below to assess the situation.

These are “alates” – or winged reproductives– commonly seen when they swarm on a hot humid summer evening around dusk, often in their thousands from a large mature colony nest.

The swarmers drop their wings when they land and use a chemical signal to attract a mate

to start up a new colony of termites.

Source: www.termite.com.au • Local residents also need to be wary of European wasps, which are now appearing.

European wasps are attracted to sweet drinks, food, insects and pet food, and will also forage on road kill.

Residents are advised to feed their pets indoors if wasps are present. European wasps can be very aggressive if disturbed. If stung, the recommended first aid for a wasp sting is an ice pack to reduce the pain and swelling.

However, if people are stung in the mouth, experience difficulty in breathing, or develop an itchy rash, seek medical help immediately.

European wasps are bright yellow and black, with bright yellow legs. They are predominantly black on their front with bright yellow markings.

Around 65 per cent of Australia’s weeds were originally introduced as garden plants.

Over time they escaped from gardens by birds eating fruits and defecating seeds, dumped garden waste (plant material and soil), wind-blown seeds; seeds or vegetative propagules (e.g. bulbs) washing along drains and waterways, seeds getting stuck on clothing, animals, tools and vehicles.

Many of South Australia’s most serious weeds, such as bridal creeper (Asparagus asparagoides), salvation Jane (Echium plantagineum), cape broom (Genista monspessulana), cape tulip (Moraea flaccida) and blackberry (Rubus fruticosus agg.) have all originated in SA gardens.

Garden plants with weed potential are still being sold at nurseries, markets and street stalls.

Common examples are olives (Olea europaea), mirror bush (Coprosma repens), periwinkle (Vinca major), gazania (Gazania spp.) and fountain grass (Pennisetum setaceum).

Call him ‘Lionhearted’

W

hat do you do when you are considered of retirement age, when the body might be slower but the mind isn’t, and you’re still wanting to be actively involved in the community?

Luckily our area has many community, sporting and service groups around, all looking for volunteers and members.

Retired farmer, Kevin Roberts, recently received the prestigious William R Tresise Fellowship award for 35 years service through Lions for community service, an award not given to just anyone.

Tresise was the founder of the Australian Lions movement.

To see what a retired person does in their spare time, I thought I’d start with Kevin.

Born in Balaklava in the Depression in 1933, Kevin started his schooling near where he lived, at Brightwood just out of Balaklava near Devil’s Garden.

That school closed and in Year 5, Kevin moved to Balaklava Primary School. He recalls spending most of Year 7 in the principal’s office, and says the cane should be brought back now. I agree.

Kevin moved onto Balaklava High School where he was apparently in the noisiest Year 8 class ever – but it wasn’t his fault of course! Perhaps living near Devil’s Garden had put some devil into Kevin.

Kevin left school aged 14, and as his family farm was run by his father and two uncles, Kevin had to find off-farm work.

He trapped rabbits for two years, did some shearing and farmhand work, and worked at the Halbury wheat stacks where he learnt to swear!

Eventually he went back onto the family farm when he was 19.

With a twinkle in his eye, he recalls his younger days when all young people would attend dances two or three times per week, travelling from Hamley to Dublin to Hoyleton, with dances even held in winter in the BalaklavaTown Hall lounge.

At 22, Kevin married Val and they had four children, Julie, Brett, Angela and Gavin. As he was busy with farming and family, he didn’t have time to join Apex or play much sport.

He did however join the Balaklava Golf Club and this year will have been a member for 50 years.

In 1976, Laurie Catford, who became Kevin’s mentor, invited him to join Lions, in those days with a strict dress code of jacket and tie. They had 35 members with other branches at Port Wakefield, Owen, Hoyleton and Mallala. Owen’s group later closed and joined with Balaklava and Snowtown.

Kevin still recalls the Lions club putting new gutters on a house in Balaklava, recently turned into a bed and breakfast accommodation, and “we had freshly baked biscuits for morning tea baked in a wood stove, even though it was 1978.”

Those were the good old days.

Kevin said “you just breeze through life until something bad happens”, and difficult times followed when Kevin’s wife Val, passed away from cancer.

They had just moved into

KEVIN receives the Lions William R Tresise Fellowship award from past District Governor, Glenn Herbert and ABOVE, hard at work, cleaning up at Ira Parker Nursing Home garden with fellow Lion, Kevin Bubner Moody Estate in Balaklava in 1993, being the second settlers there, after Colin and Jenny Stewart.

In 2002 Kevin married Ina and inherited three step-daughters and six step-grandchildren.

Kevin has continued with Balaklava Lions and helps with various community duties, fund raising and generally trying to keep the town looking good – as well as tidying gardens for people around the town.

Kevin was on the Regional Council in the 1990s and twice has been club president, as well as deputy District Governor and Regional Chairman, and as Lions members know, a Tale-twister, a job Kevin says he has done for too long!

Other renowned Lions Tale-

Plains Producer, Wednesday August 31, 2011

twisters, Pos Kipling, and the inaugural president, Les King, were “two of the funniest men you could ever meet” said Kevin.

Balaklava local Norm Parish asked Kevin to become a Legatee, that is to be a contact for Legacy war widows.

Along with Don Beare and Warren Durdin, Kevin visits any war widows, takes them to appointments and checks up on their welfare. Warren joined two years ago while Don has been a Legatee since he retired in 1994.

Don and wife Heather sell badges for Legacy every year.

They will be selling badges outside Balaklava newsagency tomorrow (Thursday) from 9am to 2pm, so

if you’re passing by, please stop and buy one.

The work of Legatees is one of those quiet but vital voluntary tasks that no-one ever hears about.

Kevin is a big supporter of Lions and says joining Lions is the best thing he’s done, “but without the support of the public, the Lions wouldn’t be able to do too much”.

The Lions club, through member, the late Les Schmaal, instigated the Lions walking trail, while Colin Sandow and Gordon Cowan built the donut van, still in use today at Friday night basketball, Balaklava Show and other local events.

Retired Balaklava pharmacist Harold Philp is the only original surviving and active “charter”

member of Balaklava Lions. Currently there are 21 members, who with their partners volunteer for a variety of community duties. New members are always very welcome.

The Lions motto is ‘We serve’ and that they do. Even today (Wednesday) after the Balaklava Cup has finished, the Lions members will be out at the track cleaning up the mess made by revellers.

So next time you’re tucking into what I think are the best donuts in the world, riding your bike along the Lions trail, grabbing a bargain at the Lions auction or attending the Biggest Morning Tea, just remember what Lions, – and indeed all volunteers – such as Kevin, do for you and your community. www.plainsproducer.com.au

NEWS FEATURE v ag science

This is a grain of barley:

INSIDE knowledge:

T

HIS is what the inside of a grain of barley looks like. It’s a section of a mature barley grain stained with calcofluor (fluorescent dye) to highlight the endosperm cell walls (blue) and seed coat (red). Most would recognise the green stuff, inset.

The barley research – and much more – is taking place at a major new research centre launched this month at the University of Adelaide’s Waite Campus.

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Plant Cell Walls is a $32 million biotechnology centre that looks at the fundamental role of cell walls (biomass) in plants – in particular grasses and cereal crops – and how they can be better utilised for the benefit of human societies to bring improved nutrition for billions of people around the world and the development of clean, green biofuels.

Barley, wheat, rice and model grasses will be the focal points of this research.

The centre is hoping to discover ways of altering the macromolecules inside the cell walls to maximise their potential for reducing the risk of serious human diseases (through altering the soluble fibre levels in grain) and to benefit industry in diverse areas such as bioethanol production, malting processes for beer production, and pulp and paper manufacture.

Headquartered at the University of Adelaide, the centre involves collaboration with the universities of Melbourne and Queensland and has other major research and industry partners in Scotland, Sweden, Germany and the United States.

The centre has been established with $20.5 million in Federal cash funding from the Australian Research Council (ARC) and an additional $12 million of support from partner institutions, and the State government.

Director of the new centre is Professor Geoff Fincher, who has more than 37 years experience in plant and agricultural science.

ARC chief executive officer, professor Margaret Sheil said the centre would play a critical role in defining the fundamental science that controls cell wall biology in plants, including important crop species.

“Fundamental scientific discoveries will

what science is seeking:

inevitably point the way towards new technologies that will underpin Australian crop industries, which are valued at more than $8 billion per year, associated food industries valued at $40 billion per year, and the rapidly growing biofuels and biomaterials industries,” Professor Sheil said.

“The centre brings together a team of internationally regarded scientists, with research and industry partners from around the globe.

These include: Scotland: University of Dundee and the James Hutton Institute; Sweden: Biomime and KTH (Royal Institute of Technology of Sweden); Germany: Leibniz-Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research) and the United States: Energy Biosciences Institute), Arcadia Biosciences Inc and DuPont-Pioneer.

n Cell walls play a number of key roles in plants, such as providing strength and flexibility for the plant; allowing water into the cell and being waterproof when needed; providing a physical barrier to invasion by pests; allowing changes during the growth of the plant; and responding to stresses on the plant.

A key component is cellulose, one of the most abundant molecules on the planet – an estimated 180 billion tonnes of cellulose is produced by plants each year. Cellulose is made up of glucose (sugar) molecules, which link up to form polysaccharides.

The centre’s researchers will work to better understand the polysaccharides in plant cell walls, aiming to alter the polysaccharides in grasses and cereals to produce a range of benefits for human health and industry.

These include: n Improved fibre in grains: Polysaccharides, known as beta-

glucans, are important to dietary fibre because they are not digested in the small intestine. Improving fibre levels in grains such as wheat and rice could reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and a number of other serious diseases for billions of people. n Improved animal nutrition: While beta-glucans might be beneficial in dietary fibre in humans, for production animals such as chickens and pigs, it’s desirable to have lower beta-glucan levels in feed. n Malting and brewing: Glucans in grain are also undesirable for maltsters and brewers, because beta-glucans contribute to beer “haze”. The cell wall group in Adelaide has a collaborative project with Viterra in this area. n Bioethanol production: Bioethanol is a renewable fuel that is produced by the fermentation of sugars. Grasses are the major source of biomass for bioethanol production.

Get ready, set, go!

WELCOME punters, protagonists, fillies and fashionistas, to the 2011 Balaklava Cup. It’s officially spring as of tomorrow, so here’s hoping the weather holds up like it has been in recent weeks.

The track is a picture of purity and credit must go to Doug Hall and the Balaklava Racing Club Committee for their work over the last 12 months, leading into today’s magnificent event.

There’s something on offer for everyone today.

From 11am, the Fashion of the Field registration desk opens, located opposite the presentation stage.

THOSE attending this year’s Balaklava Cup will have an extra reason to glam up at the event.

The 2011 Cup is a part of Fashion at The Races - Thoroughbred Racing SA’s search for South Australia’s most stylish racegoer – and ambassador and Ten News reporter Kate Freebairn will be scouring all the action trackside on the hunt for the best dressed.

In her first appearance as Fashion at The Races Ambassador, Kate will be joined by Face of the Balaklava Cup, Sophie Holland-Smith (pictured right), to conduct the Fashions on the Field competition – and find the next racegoer to compete in the Fashion at The Races final at South Australian Derby Day next year.

According to Kate, it’s all about working with the feel of the event you’re attending to look the part and have a chance to win on raceday.

“Dressy heels work for a city or provincial race day like Adelaide Cup and Balaklava while you’d go for classy boots if you are heading out to the Clare races,” she said.

“If you have a show stopping hat or fascinator it usually works best to keep your outfit simple – and always make sure the colour of the headpiece works with your dress.

“I’m looking forward to seeing what Balaklava has to offer.”

And the stakes are certainly high when it comes to looking the part at Balaklava. The overall winner of Fashion at The Races will take home a Volkswagen Polo, and the runner up will win a year’s worth of race wear thanks to a $3000 wardrobe and styling session from renowned local designer and event partner – Liza Emanuele.

And with King William Road Hyde Park as Balaklava’s official fashion partner, all entrants in Fashion on the Field have the opportunity to win some great prizes courtesy of King William Road traders - including vouchers from Karrans of Hyde Park, Boo Radley, Move Over Menswear and Swiss Wellness Natural Health and Beauty Spa. “The Balaklava Cup is like a gold ticket to one of the best parties of the year,” Sophie said.

If you’ve got a selection for the cup winner already in mind, or any other race for that matter, you can put them on at any stage throughout the day, preceding the race, of course.

True punters will be pumped to know legendary bookie, Robbie Waterhouse, is fielding today.

He will be amongst the bookies betting ring, so keep a lookout for him and make sure you compare prices, the other bookies around will be keen to be competitive with his odds.

For those with tickets to either of the Caos Events marquees, well done, you’re

sure to have a sensational day.

The Ladies Day Cougars Party will be packed with all the action, both from the races and inside the tent on-stage, fit out with pole-dancers, the sexy fellas from the Aussie Hunks – All Male Review crew, five-hour food and beverage package and loads more.

In the 92.7 Fresh FM Y-Room Party, it will be going off, with music from Adelaide’s best DJs, pole dancers, big screen TVs and prime viewing of the finish line, also complete with the food and beverage package.

The event is set up to cater for 16,000

Cup

people, with more than 70 corporate and private hospitality marquees this year.

To help cater for the throng, there will be three semi trailer loads of drinks, four tons of ice, one ton of prawns from one caterer alone, 100 dozen oysters, 20 caterers, 1000 staff and volunteers, 40 security officers, 20 traffic controllers, 40 police officers, 101 tote operators and 200 buses – and much, much more!

If you have a members day pass enjoy members privileges, which includes happy hour from 11.30am to 12.30pm, with bar snacks and a comfortable private bar.

Another big year for Balak

Do you have the look?

It’s Cup Time again – we are rapidly approaching the date for the 2011 Balaklava Cup. The Cup continues to attract great horses and to entice trainers to continue to bring their quality thoroughbreds to run at the Balaklava Cup we have introduced a bonus for trainers of $10,000 if any trainer can train the winner of the Coopers Sprint and the Malaysian Air Lines/Advertiser Balaklava Cup. At our Cup Launch this year our special guest was Chris Munce a champion jockey and a champion bloke who was interviewed

by Peter Walsh from the ABC. It was a truly entertaining afternoon and I suggest to all you punters that next year you take the opportunity to join us for a quality lunch and share good humour with racing enthusiasts and enjoy a quality guest speaker.

We have a special treat in store for the punters this year as renowned book÷maker and a member of the legendary Waterhouse bookmaking family Robbie Waterhouse will field at Balaklava. Take the opportunity to have a bet with Robbie and if you’re lucky enough to lose, retain the ticket and keep it as a memento so that you can tell your grandchildren how you had a bet with the famous Robbie Waterhouse.

Again we thank our sponsors, Advertiser Newspapers, Angas Securities, Atlas Party Hire, Bardrill Corporation, Bundaberg Rum, Coopers, Jacobs Creek Wines and Schweppes.

And we particularly welcome new sponsors, Carom Dorf and SATAB. I trust you will enjoy the hospitality of the Club, the exciting racing and the good comradeship on the day.

SOLAR POWER! “Since installing solar power in my house, my power bills have decreased quite significantly. I opted to install a 1.5kw system and have been completely happy with the result. After I contacted Clewers they sent a very helpful chap out to my house to get all the information he needed to work out what would suit me best. I was presented with some options and helpful advice and guidance so that I could choose the system that suited my individual needs. During this whole procedure and the installation, everyone from Clewers worked quickly and efficiently, causing me as little inconvenience as possible. The whole thing went off without a hitch.”

Geoff Wiseman, Balaklava

“The reason I wanted to get solar power installed was to do my bit for the environment in cutting down greenhouse gases. After only 2 weeks of operation the system has saved 170kwh. I am happy with the look of the panels and it adds value to my house. At all times, Clewers were punctual, worked efficiently and kept us well informed throughout the whole process.”

NEWS v Balaklava n PICTURE: Lisa Redpath

Cracker of a night!

Big crowds support Horizon’s spectacular show DUANNE Wilson, clowning around.

It was a scene of many explosions at Horizon Christian School last Thursday night as hundreds of people gathered for the Family, Fun and Fireworks night.

The event was originally scheduled for August 14, however due to poor weather it was pushed back.

With a big turn out

of 500-600 people, organiser Kelly Bickle was surprised by the numbers.

“Considering we had to change the date, there was still a big crowd,” Kelly said.

The night provided entertainment for all ages with show bags, activities, face painting and a jumping castle.

“There’s been a lot of positive talk about it,” Kelly said.

While the total proceeds

have not been finalised, $2000 was raised from gate takings, and the total amount from the night will go towards equipment for the new gym.

“We also had $1000 donated towards the fireworks,” Kelly said.

The school was pleased to see many people outside the school community attend.

• MORE spectacular moments occurred next day, when

the school was turned into a fantasy world as primary students dressed up as there favourite book characters.

Horizon principal, Mike Clisby, said the day was a great success. “The kids had a great time showing off their costumes,” he said.

After parading, students took part in the theme of book week ranging from crafts to exploring ‘the world of text.’

SECOND SEMI FINAL, SATURDAY AT LOCHIEL

Balak’s big one • From back page Conversely Virginia, who spent much less time in attack, kicked 5.1 and were just nine points down at half time, despite their opponents controlling the midfield and the stoppages.

The third quarter was an interesting tussle, with both teams kicking three goals each, but the goal kicking yips were becoming contagious. Balaklava kicked 3.6, while the Rams slotted through 3.4 in this term.

“Our kicking was a bit of a concern, but the week before we kicked 13.8,” Peckers playing coach Stuart Lamond said.

“I reckon that three and four points in the second term were either rushed or punched through.

“For the first three quarters it was tight and I know Virginia is a dangerous side, able to kick goals quickly.

“I thought we played well enough, except for the inaccuracy, to get the job done.”

As an on-baller and medium forward, Lachie Michael was imposing at crucial times, kicking three important goals, while Todd McPharlin worked strongly, winning many possessions at the clearances and in general field play.

Fellow midfielder Aaron Cocks and the creative Ben Catford were influential, while Stuart Lamond and Glenn Dawson were towers of strength in the forward line.

Captain Hayden Walker was strong at the ruck contests and worked manfully

around the ground.

Both the playing coach and the high flying athletic full forward Glenn Dawson kicked four goals in the win.

Dawson, who caught another candidate for mark of the year in the final term, at best was brilliant, but equally he makes the occasional rookie mistake. He will need to be less wasteful in front of goal in the season decider.

Three key defenders all did the job manfully, Les Pearson, Brenton Lamond (who cut his hand in first term) and Derek Friedrichs, keeping the competitions leading goal kicker, Brendan Nicklaus to just a pair of majors, all deserved a mention.

“Glenn (Dawson) was very influential in the contest, and while he kicked 4.8, he had 23 kicks and took 14 marks, mostly inside the forward 50 metre arc,” Lamond continued.

“I did ask Glenn for a big effort in the last quarter and he produced.

“If he had kicked six or seven goals he would have been easily best on ground.

“Lachie’s (Michael) goals came at important times.

“Sam Avery going down did help our cause in the big man area, as he was hard for our ruckmen to jump over in the last minor round game.

“In my eyes – and it’s hard being on the field – Todd McPharlin was our best.”

For the Rams, in his return game after nearly two months off, Caleb Howell was simply superb. Along with a couple of goals, he was creative with his ball use and didn’t looking to have missed a beat despite the long lay-off.

Anthony Seccafien was close second behind him, reading the game well from defence and rebounding strongly.

Nathan Warren and Ben Russel both produced strong four-quarter efforts, while Matt Young, Graham Rigney and Stephen Papanotis were the best of the rest.

“We just turned the ball over too many times last Saturday,” Rams coach Greg Phillips said.

“Our decision making and skill level was the worst it has been all year.

“Balaklava played to their strengths, and I thought we didn’t.

“On the positive side, it was a great return to football by Caleb (Howell).”

The quartet of Niklaus, Young, Howell and Russel each kicked two goals for the Rams, but there wasn’t a definitive avenue to goal.

Both Troy Wilkey and Chris James looked proppy, not having anywhere near their usual effect.

• From back page Noted as challenges early Two Wells Lee Allmond and Virginia talent Caleb Howell’s chances were cruelled by injury.

Magpies midfielder Whitwell is a previous winner in 2009 and has continued to be consistent as well this season.

From the minor premiers, Balaklava’s perspective, coach Stuart Lamond believes they will have an even spread of votes catchers, with Glenn Dawson a good chance at grabbing the most votes for the Peckers, having four or five outstanding performances where he could very well have

grabbed the top votes.

As last year’s winner Hayden Walker hasn’t been invited, the other Balaklava chances are Sam Rowland and Todd McPharlin.

Two Wells coach Mark Thompson suggested that Ned Seccafien and Kahn Leighton are expected to be their leading votes getters.

Over at Hummocks Watchman Matthew Higgs is seen as their leading candidate, with Ricky Mackereth, a Mail Medallist on theYorke Peninsula having an ultra consistent year in his first year at the Eagles.

United’s best chance is the hard working centre-man Adrian Mills, although he

had a flat spot later in the year.

At the wooden spooners Hamley Bridge, both Moody and Adam Pepe have made a big impact on Adelaide Plains football, but the lack of victories will certainly hurt their chances as well.

At Virginia Greg Phillips suggested that Ben Russell and the previously mentioned Howell are his best options.

Notorious poor votesgetter full forward Brendan Nicklaus has at least four best on ground efforts. It will be interesting to see how the officials mark his performances during the 2011 minor round.

FIRST SEMI FINAL, SUNDAY AT TWO WELLS

Magpies keep the dream alive Mallala’s dream of a third successive premiership crown is still alive after a four-goal win over United, in Sunday’s first semi-final to culminate the first week of Adelaide Plains finals.

It was a dour battle, with both sides being inaccurate at times and this was reflected in the end result.

United kicked with a fluky three to four goal breeze towards the Adelaide end of Two Wells Oval but didn’t make the most of their opportunities in the opening term, and they would rue kicking 3.8 in this quarter.

The second stanza was equally tense, with both sides only managing a goal each, before the Magpies had all the play in the third term, peppering the goals, but kicking 2.5 into the breeze. The Mallala defence kept the Tigers scoreless in this important term.

With the reigning premiers expected to run away with the victory in the last term, Travis Optiz’s Tigers displayed real heart and character against the odds.

Three times Magpies kicked goals that suggested they had the game in hand and were about break the contest open. Each time United found a way to reply into the wind and to get back to within a single kick.

Then the umpires interfered and gave two marginal free kicks, which sealed the contest.

A pair of majors in succession

by Magpies centre half forward Brent Harris, followed by Luke Chadwick’s goal sunk any last chances off a boil over.

“I thought we tried to finesse the ball too often with the breeze,” Mallala coach Keith Earl said.

“At times we were too clever for our own good and then made

PETER ARGENT’S APFL report

E: pla.wordsmith@bigpond.com M: 0411 178 444

skill errors.

“Neither side took advantage of the wind and it did drop out a bit in the second half.

“Containing them in the third quarter went a long way to winning the game.

“We only really broke away from United in the last 10 minutes of the game, as they made a real fight of it for the first half of the last term.”

United’s inexperienced side can take some solace from their sterling efforts.

“The third quarter hurt us the most,” coach Optiz said.

“We didn’t get true value from our inside forward 50 entries.

“Early in the game we out played and out tackled them, but wasted opportunities by kicking too many points.”

Christian Rimmer didn’t pass a fitness test on Sunday morning on his calf, which was a big loss for senior coach Keith Earl.

His son Jason’s (Earl) effort was the backbone of the victory.

He stood up each time he needed to be counted and was comfortably “best on ground”, along with pushing forward to kick two important goals.

Other members of the Magpies elite on-ball brigade, Joel Montgomerie and Liam Whitwell, made their presence felt at important times.

Tim Cawrse did a strong job in defence, while Sam Angus was

serviceable.

“Jason (Earl) settled the group down pretty well in the third term and helped us control the contest,” Keith Earl continued.

“He did the right things at the right times, and was influential in the win.”

United’s Adrian Mills was as effective and hard running as any of his midfield opponents, collecting upwards of 30 touches in the contest and kicked two goals.

Heath Pym had plenty of important possessions at critical times, while Ross Sharer was a strong outlet option on his wing.

Feisty and combative Mikey Brown had a crack all day, but gave way a couple of important free kicks.

Creative half back Adam Pratt, key defender Mark Pym and Andrew Sharman were all handy contributors in a contest that didn’t reach huge heights as a pure spectacle.

SPORT v Football

Clever Cats create history Culminating the minor round with wins against RSMU Hawks, the Blyth-Snowtown football and netball clubs have creating a special piece of history.

Both the A grade football and the A1 netball have completed the regular season undefeated, with both needing two more victories in the major round for the ultimate ‘holy grail’, undefeated premiership success.

“It is a tremendous achievement for our two little communities in this area,” Football Club president Nick Ashby said.

“The majority of our group are local home grown talents who either come back from town or still

REPORT:

By Peter Argent work in the district.

“A great positive for the future, is we’ve been able to blood five under 17s this year and each of them have held their own.

“We are in the present, but also looking towards the future and both our senior coach Brett Ireland and the under 17s mentor Simon Goldsmith should be commended for this.

“There is a great supportive culture at the club.”

The Cats footballers have dominated the North Eastern competition all year and coach Ireland made it a

focus over the final months to complete the minor round undefeated, using this carrot as an incentive and a challenge for the group.

“While this is a good achievement and a first for the club, the boys are now putting all their energies into the finals series,” Ireland continued.

“At the end of the day, this milestone won’t mean much without success in the finals.”

Blyth-Snowtown Netball Club president and 2009 A1 premiership player, Bernie Keech, echoed the sentiments of the football coach.

“It is a pretty special achievement to go through the regular season undefeated,” Keech continued.

“But in real terms we just got to where we want to be.

“Now we need to deliver in the finals. “ The netballers have taken the NENA crown in the last two seasons, losing one game in each campaign and are looking for a third successive crown under the stewardship of Maggie Hentschke.

The footballers won the 2010 premiership against Mintaro-Manoora by a single straight kick, after being bridesmaids their previous year, when the BBH Rams breakthrough victory.

Both football and netball clubs are the heart and soul of any rural communities. For many country people the

highlight of the week during winter is the Saturday afternoon battles against neighbouring towns.

The Blyth Snowtown Football Club Inc. was formed in 1989, after an initial season of the Snowtown footballers playing under the Blyth banner in 1988.

In a unique situation the Netball Club officially amalgamated a few years later in 1995.

Limited research has found no other football and netball clubs that have achieved the same result.

If there is any knowledge of a club that have gone through both the football and netball season undefeated, please contact me.

Blyth-Snowtown head into finals undefeated Despite a flat third term, Blyth-Snowtown ensured it finished the 2011 minor round campaign undefeated beating the fourth placed RSMU Hawks by a comfortable 21-point margin.

They actually set up the victory with a potent sixgoal second term, while keeping the Hawks to 2.2.

In the third quarter RSMU kicked all four goals for the quarter, while the undefeated Cats could only manage three points.

Four goals to 3.4 in the last quarter ensured the 17th victory for 2011 and an undefeated minor round.

“I thought we had control of the contest in the first and all but about 10 minutes of the second, but I didn’t think we finished it on the scoreboard” coach Brett Ireland said.

“We got the job done and pleasingly got out of the game unscathed from an injury perspective.

The McCormack siblings Nick and Simon freewheeled all day, winning possessions at will and cutting paths through the Hawks defence.

Scott Atkinson was used in a role in the half forward rotating through the middle and was very productive.

An absolute strength of the Cats all year the defence again delivered.

Gareth Ottens was simply sensational, while both his lieutenants Craig Robinson and Kyle Griffin on the flanks gave the Blyth-Snowtown side plenty of run and dash.

“Nick was simply superb all game,” Ireland commented.

“His brother, Simon also won plenty of telling touches.

“Glenn Hayes also played his first games back, as didArryn Lloyd.”

PETER ARGENT’S NEFL review E: pla.wordsmith@bigpond.com M: 0411 178 444

Shay Clifford was the winners’ leading goal kicker with three, while Brad Bell and Ashley Hentschke both finished with two each.

Luke Percy was the host’s best player, followed by Pat Clark, Dave Schulze andAndrew Hunt Zack Hier was going solidly until he injured his ankle five minutes before three quarter time, while Craig Mullins (two goals) was serviceable.

Tyson Willmott kicked four goals for the Hawks.

Rams clean up Roosters Returning captaincoach, Daniel Schell’s four-goal haul and with a season best seven by Boh Wall were among the big performers in the Rams’ emphatic 99-point win over a listless and struggling North Clare side.

BBH dominated from the outset, kicked six goals in each of the opening three terms, while the Roosters could only manage five goals in the opening three terms.

Marcus Hall, Tom Riggs and the Jackman brothers Nick and Matt all won plenty of the ball.

Boh Wall returned to form just in time for the finals, while another on field leader Casey Cooper played in his usual driven, dogged and desperate manner.

Among the nine different goal kickers for the Rams, Geoff Thompson, wingman David Reed, Matthew Jackman and Matt Booth each kicked

Plains Producer, Wednesday August 31, 2011

two goals.

In a disappointing year for North Michael Harrold, captain Matt Ward and Brendan Pudney were their better players in this clash.

Veteran Craig Jaeschke, Simon Jamieson, forward Tyson Pawley, with three goals were also serviceable.

Saints grab victory over injured Eagles Eudunda/Robertstown finished its 2011 campaign on a high, collecting an impressive 16 point win over the injury riddled Eagles.

This victory was set up by a five-goal-to one second term, and the Southern Saints were out to a 26 point advantage at the long interval.

While Min-Man came back in the third term, the Saints steadied in the last grabbing a richly deserved victory.

Te e n a g e r L e i g h Kimpton produced a best on ground effort which included two goals, while experienced on-baller Rowan Prior and Terry Sleep had big influences.

Another young onballer Dylan Reese, veteran Stephen Geister and the developing talent Jed Michalk all played major roles in the win.

Along with Kimpton, both Prior and Reese chimed in with two goals each.

Bill Sandow is starting to find real consistency for the Eagles, pushing forward and kicking a couple of goals as well.

SHAY Clifford was a solid performer for the Cats against the Hawks on Saturday, kicking three goals for the game.

Big Ben Kerslake was a real target up forward and a finished with a matchhigh three majors.

Shane Ross, Jamie Milburn and Ash Winders were also noteworthy.

Tigers’ accuracy earns them the win In a game just for pride at Spalding Oval, South Clare’s accuracy was the difference in the end, and they collected a round 17 victory by three goals.

Less than two goals separated the combatants at half time, but the Tigers could only kick seven points in the third term, while South kicked 3.4.

BSR charged home with six in a free flowing last quarter, but in a shoot out in the final quarter for the year, the Demons also slotted through five goals.

Veteran and playing coach Matt Vandeleur starred for the visitors with a five goals haul.

Other big names to step up included B Murphy (three goals), Andrew Vandeleur and the athletic Michael Liebelt (two

goals).

Chris Slattery, who also helped himself to a brace of majors, together with Mitchell Reynolds, were both important players in this win.

Adam Mackenzie and big brother Jason Mackenzie in maybe the last time together were the Tigers best.

Paul Jones in defence, along with Simon Hayes,

Scott Morris and Mark Shane all had an impact on the contest.

Kyron Burgess and Hayes both kicked three goals each for the ‘black and golds’.

SPORT v Football

‘Pies will get the job done Mallala take on Virginia at Long Plains in a thriller A replay of the 2010 grand final, there are a lot of similarities in this contest, with the Keith Earl and Greg Phillips squads facing off for the right to have a crack at the Peckers in the 2011 season decider.

The Magpies are looking for a chance of playing on the final Saturday of the season, and will need to control the midfield again in this contest.

They will have ruckman Dan Chadwick under a cloud due to an ankle injury on Sunday, while senior player Christian Rimmer didn’t get up from his long term calf issue and he is seen as just a 50-50 chance of playing.

In a scrappy affair the magpies got the job done on Sunday.

“We’ll certainly need to use the ball better this week,” Mallala coach Earl said.

“There is a quiet confidence in our group and we are capable of getting the result.

“We also have a selection table question about bringing David Cawrse, a triple premiership defender at our club back into the side.”

Virginia has plenty of their own issues to deal with.

Sam Avery, with his knee problem from the second semi final, is highly unlikely of playing any football again this year.

Both Troy Wilkey and Chris James are under clouds and need to make more impact on the contest if they put their hands up to play.

PETER ARGENT’S APFL preliminary final preview E: pla.wordsmith@bigpond.com M: 0411 178 444

peter’s KIss of Death:

Magpies by 13 A member of the on field leadership group Anthony Johnson, key defender Adrian Mark and wingman Rocky Perre also didn’t play in last Saturday’s contest and will need to prove their fitness as well.

“We need to regroup after the second semi final loss and bounce back quickly,” Rams coach Greg Phillips confirmed.

“It was really pleasing to see Caleb Howell come up so well after a long lay-off.

“That was a big positive from last Saturday.

“This is the business end of the year and we’ll need our senior players to stand up.

“A strong start will help our cause.”

If the performances on the weekend are any indication, Phillips will need to make a decision on whether he tags Jason Earl or Joel Montgomerie. Earl is the more likely candidate for Virginia’s Ben Russel to run with in this contest.

The make-up of Phillips’ side is important and the fitness of key players is a real issue.

He also needs big games from Graham Rigney, Joss Denengelse and key target

in attack Brendon Niklaus.

A six-goal haul from Nicklaus may just be the game breaker.

If Rimmer returns it will be a great boost to the Magpies midfield resources.

This will take pressure of Earl, Montgomerie and Liam Whitwell.

James Wildbore is an unheralded ace up Keith Earl’s sleeve and he plays an important role for them, but he must be defensively more accountable.

Although he kicked his 50th goal with his only major for the day in the first semi final, Brian Montgomery didn’t have any telling impact on that contest.

You’d also expect him

to be more productive this week.

This game will not be as free flowing as the second semi was and with 12-14 goals either side should win the contest.

Mallala have a little more momentum going into this one, but a day’s less rest after a pretty physical encounter with Long Plains.

This match may just be decided and come down to a couple of acts of individual brilliance.

RIGHT: Ram Chris James and Pecker Justin Walker both try to tap the ball out on Saturday.

Monty is a real monty I WAS doing a bit of research on Sunday to gauge footy fans’ thoughts on who will win this year’s Plains Producer Medal.

I would casually introduce it to conversations and I kept getting the same response - “Joel Montgomerie”.

After quizzing six different ‘experts’, I hadn’t heard a different response.

It got to the stage where I would ask different questions, like “who’s winning?” and people would respond with “Joel Montgomerie”.

It continued.

“Who will coach the Crows next year?”

“Joel Montgomerie.”

“Can you give me directions to the nearest bakery?”

“Joel Montgomerie.”

“Who’s that hot

THE BANDWAGON With Rick Shaw chick over there?”

“Joel Montgomerie.”

So, it seems set in concrete Monty is our winner already, before the count has begun.

Fans beware, these things are often contentious affairs, a la Dane Swan losing last year’s Brownlow to the AFL’s best player of all time, Chris Judd.

So, who are the smokies, the roughies, the dark horses?

Everyone else apparently.

I think there is more debate about who will be runner-up.

Going on wins for the year, you would think someone from

Balaklava or Virginia would poll well.

My pick from the Rams is Ben Russell, although his short stature may but him too far below the ump’s radar.

Balaklava’s best shot is probably Sam Rowland, although I like Todd McPharlin to also poll strongly.

From Hummocks Watchman Eagles, Matt Higgs or Ricky Mackereth, from Hamley Bridge, Josh Moody, from United, Adrian Mills and Two Wells, Khan Leighton, all represent their club’s best hopes.

But it appears Monty is a real monty.

The third and final round of our Championship aggregate agony competition drew a field of 21 to the immaculate greensward, some on the road to glory, others putting their hands up for the highly-steamed Balaklava Electronics Trophy.

Peter Thompson enjoyed a welcome return to his former smugness, when wielding the odd iron, by claiming not only the sparkling BET, but also a rare Eagle.

This was, of course, a Stroke round, and young “Plumber Pete” smote an unbeatable 74/65, sending Bill Lokan (81/68) to second and Willum Parkin (75/72) packing to third dibs. In their momentous wake trailed D. Taylor (90/74), W. Nagle (88/75), J. Breuer (85/76), W. Goudie (95/78), S. Michael (96/80) and M. Hameister (94/81).

So much for the A Graders.

Over in the B Grade bust-up it fell to that enigmatic emu, one Graham Ackland (88/69), to show a clear pair of heels to D. Trickett (89/70) and D. Rodgers (90/72).

Caught in their collective slipstream were G. Sonntag (97/74), D. Addison (101/81), W. Berry (102/82) and demon publisher A. Manuel (104/83).

A somewhat contracted C Grade field produced a tidily tonsured triumph for legal eagle Greg Anderson (92/62), who objected successfully against the claims of Austin Henstridge (97/70) and had John Michael (99/75) ruthlessly over-ruled.

Thrown out of court were G. Leo (102/78) and D. Goudie (105/81).

Birdies were bludgeoned by David Rodgers and Dean Trickett, who both used the 3rd. to show off on. Nearest The Pin protagonists proved to be Digby Addison (3rd), Bill Goudie (8th), Merv. Hameister (10th), Greg Anderson (15th) and Peter Thompson (17th).

As for the hallowed Club Championship stoush, we can now reveal to the world at large that our A Grade victor was, shock horror, Bill Parkin, who stomped home with a 3-round total of 223. Chasing his dust was Jimmie Breuer with 245 and our glorious President, young Willum Lokan, with 253. Over in the B Grade it was down to the proverbial wire, as David “Dangermouse” Rodgers (282) slew the collective aspirations of Messrs. Graham Ackland (284) and Digby “Adders” Addison (284).

The C Grade consortium consented to concede that local hack Austin Henstridge (294) would stand slightly to the fore of Greg Anderson (300) and just a tad further distant from John Michael (307).

This monumentous event also decided who can putt and who can putt, but our very own Bill Parkin (74), whose name goes for the second time upon the splendid Eddie Dennison Putting Trophy, which Bill also happened to produce in very fine and fitting fashion. Greg Anderson was nearly there with 84 putts for the past 3 weeks, as was Mighty Merv. Hameister, also with 84 but clearly, clobbered by a count-back as was, in turn, Scott Michael (84).

On the next day, 56 hopefuls rocked up for the Mid North 18-hole Stroke event.

All we can tell you is that, not only did our very own son of the soil Scott Michael show ‘em how in the B Grade business but also, many visitors commented most favourably on the excellent presentation and challenging nature of the course.

This week we are primping and preening the old girl before she hosts the State “Champion of Champions” Womens event on Friday, while this Saturday, we mortals return to challenge our respective egos in a somewhat more staid Stableford round.

Also, please remember that our annual spectacular, the Balaklava 27-hole Open event, will take place on Sunday, 2nd October (long weegend), so please cancel all travel plans and be there! - must dash orf to a barbie, so toodellyepip and all that.

Hockey clare & districts

Under 14 Balaklava V Springstown Both teams took to the field keen and eager for a win.

Springstown scored early in the game but this just made the Balaklava team more determined to attack the ball harder.

Ethan Gates, Gian Haasbroek, Tim Goldney, Jayden McKenna and Tom Goldney in goals made it hard work for Springstown in the back lines, setting up a strong defence.

Gian stopped Springstown’s attempt many time throughout the match, just as a Springstown player was lined up to have a shot, Gian would come in and get the ball off them and send it flying down to the other end. Riley Chapman and Mitchell Lawrie worked well together through the centre moving the ball forward on many occasions.

Sarah Goldney and Isaac Hamann seemed to be everywhere doing lots of running and trying to make themselves an option to receive the ball.

Mitchell had a shot at goal but missed by the narrowest of margins. Wingers Kailah Gates, Nathan Shepherd, Daniel Clisby and Jarika Haasbroek did a great job getting into position to hopefully deflect the ball into the goals should the ball come their way. Isaac Hamann put a lot of pressure on the Springstown players fighting hard to get the ball, with his persistence paying off and Balaklava regaining control on many occasions.

Tom Goldney padded up in the goalie gear did a brilliant job of defending the goals. On several occasions he came out and put a lot of pressure on the Springstown player trying to have a shot. Springstown got their second goal about three quarters through the second half however they had to really work hard for it. In a quick run down the field by Springstown resulted in a third goal just before the final whistle.

The Balaklava under 14 team put up a good fight against a more experienced side and did really well to hold them to a three goal lead. Good luck in your finals campaign kids. results Under 14 Clare Springstown 3 defeated Balaklava 0 Goals: James Forrest, William Price, Jake Dolphin.

SECOND SEMI FINAL MATCHES PLAYED ON SATURDAY AT LOCHIEL

Heartstopper!

Hummocks secures grand final spot The top two teams all year, Hummocks and Balaklava produced an absolute thriller in the Saturday afternoon second semi final clash on the Lochiel courts.

The minor premiers, Hummocks won a heartstopper 41-40, though the Peckerettess had a chance to level the score at full time. A Cassie Powell shot after the whistle just missed and the Eagles gained a grand final berth.

Hummocks were without Beth Germein, overseas for her mother-in-law’s wedding, so coach Samantha Nicholls reshuffled her side.

“Lisa Powell went into centre and Rochelle Smith played at wing attack,” Nicholls said.

“At half time I switched Lisa Powell and Erin Brundell.

“The performance by Lisa and Erin, in par-

ticular, was the most commendable effort and they stuck to their task and worked hard all contest.

“We knew from the very start of the year we would be without Beth, if we made it into the semis.

“However due to our injuries throughout the entire club this year I haven’t been able to swing it around as I would have liked to try our structures out without her.

“Beth is already back from overseas and will join us for the grand final.

“We wore fluoro shoe laces as a present from

Beth so she was always out on court with us.”

Hummocks were one goal up at quarter time, but the scores were locked away in the other two intervals.

“Saturday’s game was just one of those tight-tight finals games and it was so pleasing to come away with the win,” Nicholls continued.

“We still have things to work on and implement before the Grand Final but it is nice to have the week off and go straight through.

“Mel Moulds worked back into the contest after a long stint off and I am looking forward to seeing her with this game under her belt in two weeks time.

“Tegan Nottle really stood up in what would have been the biggest game of her short career.

“She is such a fighter

and that’s what I love about her game.

“Rochelle Smith got some timely intercepts and touches when we needed.

“Bonnie Nicholls worked tirelessly and did enough in the end to put off that last shot.”

After an even first half, Hummocks acquired a six goal break in the third term, which the Peckers reeled in.

Then again in the last quarter the minor premiership got out to a four-goal lead, before Balaklava again came for a second time “The girls displayed some character in this game and despite the loss it was a confidence boosting effort,” playing coach Michelle Williams said.

“Naturally we’re keen to have another crack at them, so we’ll need to play with the same intensity in this weekend’s game against Mallala.”

Talia Kruger was the Peckers best player at goal attack and despite missing the last shot, Cassie Powell was impressive standing up to the experience of Mel Moulds as the other player in Balaklava’s shooting circle.

TEGAN Nottle, Hummocks releases the ball in A1 on Saturday. Tegan’s performance earned her best on court for the match.

Third placed for the most of the season, favourites Mallala ensured a place in the preliminary final with a solid 13 goal win over Two Wells on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

After a strong start by Two Wells, where they shot the first three goals of the contest, the tight defence from both teams made it tough for the goalies.

A few turnovers by Mallala brought them back in the game, with the contest back on a knife edge at the first break, with Mallala one-goal up at this interval.

While the second quarter was a little scrappy with turnovers, predominately through defence Mallala increased their lead and were up by five goals at the half.

Excellent shooting by Mallala goal attack Diana Feeley at the start of the quarter, coupled with strong, fast passes helped Mallala increase their lead in the third term.

Despite great rebounding by Two Wells’ Mia Darling, that endeavoured to drag the hosts back in the game, the Maggies looked in control of the match and were 11 goals up at lemons.

The game petered out as a contest in the last quarter, with Mallala eventually winning 47 goals to 34.

“It was a strong effort by the girls - and in the end we won by 13 - and were up at every quarter break,” Mallala coach, Courtney Kerr said.

“Two Wells kept the intensity up all day but our defensive pressure was strong with Jessie Neilson and Midge May combining well in defence along with Clare Bruggemann’s zoning at wing defence “Our goal keeper ‘Midge May’ used her experience and was our best player, closely followed by Tracy Kennett in the centre court.

“Also, we continued to attack the play and

“It was most definitely a team win with all eight players taking the court and being a part of the victory.

Best on court, Nerida “Midge” May was a standout in defence for the victors while Tessa Jarman at goal attack, and Tracy Kennett in the centre also impressed.

For Two Wells, shooter Steph Walker started well while mid courter Nicole Hardy and circle defender from Blyth-Snowtown, Mia Darling worked industriously.

Mallala coach Kerr confirmed this week’s preliminary final game will be extremely tough against Balaklava.

“That is what finals is all about and now that some of our young players have experienced finals for the first time or others for the first time in a long time, I think they like the taste and will hit the court harder than ever on Saturday,” Kerr suggested.

SECOND SEMI FINAL MATCHES PLAYED ON SATURDAY AT LOCHIEL

Hummocks in ‘fast and furious’ shootout A1: Hummocks and Balaklava turned up the intensity, in a tight tussle which saw Hummocks come out winners by a solitary goal.

Goalies from both teams were “hot to trot” in the opening minutes of the game. Excellent defensive pressure got to Hummocks first, however Balaklava scored from the first turnover of the game. As you would expect, the pace was fast and furious. An umpires’ time out for the blood rule gave some time for players to regroup, but the quarter was won by the team making the least mistakes defensively – Hummocks. Standout players for this first quarter included Erin Brundell in WA for Hummocks, and Gaynor Tink at centre for Balaklava.

Hum 11, Balak 10 The second quarter was all about defensive pressure, with each possession hard fought for. While the ball cleared through the midcourt, pressure in and around the circles was intense.

Several players hit the deck.

Chelsea Koch was tireless and manufactured some amazing turnovers, as did Michelle Williams. Although Bonnie Nicholls and Melissa Moulds were right on their game, Balaklava’s GA, Talia Kruger presented plenty of opportunities for her team.

Tegan Nottle also performed well for Hummocks.

Hum 21, Balak 21 Two early Hummocks turnovers broke the deadlock, with Hummocks scoring the first six goals of the quarter.

Balaklava’s attacking end was in disarray, despite coach and GD, Michelle Williams inspiring turnovers for her team. Balaklava’s disposal was the main issue, rushing passes and forcing play.

Heads cooled and Balaklava got it back together. Consolidation and hard work paid off for Balaklava and they were back in the game.

Hum 32, Balak 32 The young guns from both teams were impressive, proving they were equal to the task. Again, Hummocks got away to a four-goal lead before Balaklava scored, and so the chase was on.

Mistakes cost both teams as the intensity lifted. With a minute and a half to go, scores were level. But it came down to a missed penalty shot after the final whistle, Hummocks winning by just one goal!

Final score: Hum 41, Balak 40 A2: Both teams fought hard, but Hummocks couldn’t recover from a slow start, Two Wells to come away with the win.

Both teams started nervously, making mistakes.

Two Wells settled first and capitalised on the turnovers.

Two Wells GS, Sharnie Kent moved well in the ring.

TW 13, Hum 5 Strong defence in both circles restricted both teams to only one goal each in the first five minutes of the second quarter. Two Wells’ Stacey Gameau, Bec O’Brien and Kylie Henwood worked hard to make sure turnovers reached their goalies.

TW 20, Hum 13 Hummocks started strong with GS, Tammy Nicholls shooting well. In the second half of the third term, Two Wells stepped it up a level causing Hummocks to make critical mistakes. Tammy Nicholls, Hummocks shot accurately throughout this quarter.

TW 30, Hum 20 Two Wells GK, Karen Penhall rebounded well, but Two Wells failed to follow up with goals, resulting in Hummocks getting the first five goals. Sharnie Kent found her form and it was soon goal-for-goal.

TW 36, Hummocks 29 A3: A close game came to a final quarter shoot-out, with Hummocks snatching a seven-goal win.

After a nervous start with a few misses, both sides settled for a goal-to-goal shoot out.

Sasha Tiller in GA for Hummocks was a standout player in this opening quarter, as was Lauren Moore, in WD for Virginia.

Hum 15, Virg 16 Both teams came out fighting, with Hummocks capitalising on errors by the Ramettes and taking the lead.

Sascha Tiller again performed well, and Josie Savage at C for Virginia moved well through the midcourt.

Hum 32 – Virg 29 Virginia made changes which didn’t have the impact they’d hoped for. Hummocks’ error rate was low, pushing the lead out. Hummocks’ C, Emma Ward and Virginia’s GS, Carissa Buckley were stoic for their sides.

Hum 48, Virg 40 It was a tough last quarter, scores getting to a three-goal difference, with Hummocks settling to win. Abbie Phillips at WA for Hummocks and again, Carissa Buckley was accurate for Virginia.

Final score: Hum 61 – Virg 54 A4: Two Wells were accurate early, but Balaklava came back from a half time deficit to win by three goals.

Two Wells started strongly with accurate shooting. Kimberly Juvan worked hard through the centre in WD for Two Wells. Michelle Dimasi was accurate, with support from Nicole Cocks at GS. Balaklava started to settle into their game, finding rhythm in the attacking half, with goalies finding the ring. Two Wells showed consistency in the ring with accurate shooting.

Jasmyn Smith was accurate for Balaklava in GS. TW 22, Balak 19 Tight defence from both teams made it hard to score.

Two Wells GD, Amanda Farr worked hard. Balaklava was hard at the ball, making some good turnovers.

TW 31, Balak 27 Balaklava were first to settle, making valuable turnovers. An even quarter with Balaklava fighting hard and scoring from good turn overs.

Balaklava’s Samantha Florence was in good form.

TW 37, Balak 40 A5: A tight battle from the first whistle, Balaklava securing an exciting win.

Balaklava’s goalies only missed one for the quarter.

Hum 6, Balak Gold 6 After a few changes made

by Hummocks, coach Emily Wandel was rewarded with a quick goal, but the Balaklava girls soon responded. Balaklava’s defence line of Stacey Faehrmann and Syjourn Renshaw were strong and got many rebounds and intercepts.

Hum 17, Balak Gold 12 Centres for both teams, Aleisha Michael for Balaklava and Merridy Nicholls for Hummocks, were a great option for their teams and put in great defensive efforts. Defence from Hummocks’ Caitlyn Moulds was great in the ring.

Hum 11, HB 8 Jessica Sellars continued her accurate shooting, scoring all of Hamley’s goals for the second quarter. Kiraleigh Hewitt at WD was reliable, always offering strong leads.

Hum 17, HB 16 Amy McCabe’s speed at C of Hamley provided them with quick transitions, helped by the many intercepts made

by GD Amy Humphrys. The change of Sky Wolf to GK and Natasha Greenshields to GD worked well, enabling Hummocks to make many strong rebounds and providing fresh legs.

Amy McCabe put in a solid effort for Hamley Bridge, as did Natasha Greenshields, Hummocks.

Hum 24, HB 23 Hummocks regained the lead with the first three goals of the final quarter. Basic passing errors were made

Montgomerie favourite for Plains Producer medal REPORT:

By Peter Argent

n Ram Brendon Niklaus and Peckers Daniel Gardner and Derek Friedrichs during a marking contest in Saturday’s thriller A grade match at Lochiel. n INSET: Diana Feeley, Mallala receives the ball in front of Two Wells’ Karen Penhall in Sunday’s A1 match.

Balak’s big one!

Now Virginia and Mallala must slug it out BALAKLAVAwill play in its first grand final in five years after defeating Virginia by 41 points at Lochiel last Saturday.

The Rams, desperate to win this year’s flag after a demoralising one point loss to Mallala last year, must now face their nemesis, Mallala, at Long Plains in the preliminary final on Saturday.

Mallala booted United out of the finals race on Sunday, winning the first semi final at Two Wells by 24 points.

It was a great weekend of football and netball, with perfect conditions over both days, with big crowds undoubtedly pleasing APFL and host clubs.

Balaklava and Virginia waged an

PETER ARGENT’S APFL report

E: pla.wordsmith@bigpond.com M: 0411 178 444

intense and lengthy battle before the Peckers managed to gain the upper hand in the final term.

The Peckers, who last won a premiership in 2000 against United, will now have a week’s break, building confidence and allowing the contenders to slug it out in the preliminary final.

•At LOCHIEL on Saturday, the Peckers kicked six goals-to-one in the last quarter after being inaccurate during the game.

The first term was as finals should be, tough and tight, with Balaklava up by eight points at the initial interval.

The Rams went in to this game without Anthony Johnson and lost big ruckman Sam Avery at the three minute mark. He was taken from the ground on a stretcher with a dislocated knee cap.

While the Peckers kicked 4.8 in the second term, they missed many shots that should have been converted and kept their opponents in the game.

MALLALA WINS FIRST SEMI

n Continued page 16

read the report, page 17

Standout performer for the season, red-headed Mallala midfielder Joel Montgomerie is the strong favourite to etch himself into Adelaide Plains football folklore this Saturday night at the 2011 medal count.

This is the consensus of the majority of the coaches as well, as the hard running and skilful Montgomerie has been an effective high-possession player, under the umpires’ nose all year.

He has been mentioned in the Magpies best players on 13 occasions; two less than team mate Liam Whitwell and Hamley Bridges Josh Moody, but he has been rated either best or second best in 11 of those games by the club.

A key member of the Magpies last three premiership triumphs, the only question mark about his chances is that in previous years, his best effort has been just been a third place performance on medal count night of 2007.

Interestingly team mates Josh Hollitt and Liam Whitwell have collected the AdMALLALA midfielder, elaide Plains Football Joel Montgomerie League’s highest individual honour since his arrival from Streaky Bay from the Port Adelaide under 19s.

“Joel has played all but one game this year and has been our most consistent player” Magpies coach Keith Earl said.

“He works pretty hard, both on and off the ball.

“You’d expect he’s a big chance to win our best and fairest this year.” n Continued page 16
