EXIT GRANTS OVER RIVERLAND irrigators looking to leave the horticultural industry have been dealt a major blow, with the $9.6 million Federal Government funded exit grant fully committed. Exceptional Circumstances (EC) Exit Grants will now be closed to all new applicants, however the State Government is calling for an extension of the program.
REPORT BY
BRAD PERRY South Australian Agriculture Minister Michael O’Brien said many growers who were considering exiting may miss out on financial help.
“It’s good that people have had an opportunity to exit with a certain degree of dignity and with minimal financial duress,� Minister O’Brien said. “However, I’m concerned that many eligible landowners may have missed out on receiving assistance. “I’ll be raising this issue with the Federal Minister for Agriculture,

Morgan cooks off PEOPLE from across South Australia will be travelling to Morgan to sample food from some of the region’s best camp oven cooks this Sunday. Nine teams will battle it out in an effort to be crowned champion at Morgan’s Camp Oven Cook-off at the Commercial Hotel. With a limited number of tickets for the event remaining, Morgan Community Development and Tourism Committee member Heather Pinnington said the cook-off is growing in popularity. “It’s getting a good reputation,” she said. “The greatest thing about the event

is it gives people who aren’t professional chefs and local members of the community a chance to give it a go.” Last year a select panel of judges picked the cookoff winners but the event will be different this time. “This year, instead of having a panel of judges, we are giving the guests an opportunity to vote on the meals,” Mrs Pinnington said. “We thought we’d try something different and get the crowd involved a bit more. “We’ll have a scribe for each table and they will put their comments down and the crowd will vote for the winner this year.

ROB McLEAN
Reasons to be cheerful THERE are plenty of reasons to be cheerful this week, particularly in the Loxton district where the sale of the town’s winery will be completed today, if all goes ahead as reported. As a result of the winery’s sale, more staff will be employed at what is Australia’s fourth largest winery and more fruit will be purchased. Already, the purchase has impacted with other wineries circling to book up grape supply for the next vintage. All of this will provide a positive boost for local people and businesses who have been doing it tough through a perfect storm of circumstances that have hit the hip pocket and confidence hard. Hopefully, this news will also see fairer dealings taking place between wineries and growers, ending some of the poor treatment that has seemingly been par for the course in recent years. Meanwhile, news that the Riverland Regional Waste Management Committee is again looking at other sites for its already behind schedule facility will be music to some people’s ears out at Monash. From the outside, it appeared as if the Monash site was a fait accompli with the committee not discussing other possibilities publicly. However, Tuesday’s public meeting revealed otherwise, despite one committee member’s attempts to spin the details. While the preparations are taking longer than expected, it is vital that the process is given due process and completed properly. There is no point rushing it, only to find that the facility has been placed in the wrong location - the ramifications of a poor decision could be disastrous. Finally, today I sign off with my final editorial for the Riverland Weekly. I wish my successor, Brad Perry, the best of luck, along with all involved with the newspaper.

Plenty of cooks in this kitchen THE construction of a kitchen, which will be built to promote healthy eating at Loxton Primary School, is set to start in the next fortnight. As part of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program, the school recently held an open day, giving people the chance to learn about the program and the plans Loxton Primary School has for it. “The day went quite well, we had a representative from the program who came and was happy with what we had on display,” teacher Sheridan Heinze said.

Waste location not set in stone By BRAD PERRY THE Riverland Regional Waste Management Committee (RRWMC) has revealed it will consider sites other than the preferred Monash option for a proposed waste facility. During the first community reference group meeting in Berri on Tuesday, those present were told the committee may be forced to look at different locations for the waste facility, despite Monash being the preferred option. RRWMC member Mike Fuller told almost 30 people in attendance at the meeting, looking at further locations for the facility has not been ruled out. “It (Monash) remains the preferred site but doesn’t mean it is done and dusted,” he said. “We are looking at a series of issues that may see us look elsewhere. “To this stage we haven’t got to that point. “The research that is being done is not being wasted…and can be utilised at another location.” Mr Fuller also said the location of the facility must benefit the entire region, not just one council or group and conceded that in the end, there will be “some
■ MEETING: Almost 30 members of the Riverland Regional Waste Management Committee Community Reference Group attended an inaugural meeting at the Berri Town Hall on Tuesday where several concerns were raised. Photo: JANE WILSON winners and losers”. RRWMC secretary Paul Day told the group tests have previously been done on a site in Loxton, as well as Monash, with the latter being chosen as the more central location. “They are the two that have been looked at…but that doesn’t mean there won’t be any more (looked at) in the future,” he said. The concept plans were also shown during the meeting where a Tonkin Consulting rep-
resentative was questioned as to why only one entrance, opposite the Mallee Fowl Restaurant, was included in the designs. “We’ve only documented one entry as instructed by the councils,” he said. Concerned irrigator Joe Gropler asked why consultants have drawn up concept plans to a specific site if it has not yet been finalised and said he was worried about the proposed location and its
proximity to the river. “Wouldn’t it make more sense to wait until the final site is chosen?” he asked. “We are trying to make this a food bowl and we are putting a rubbish dump in the middle, it’s ludicrous.” An Enviornment Protection Authority representative said the Monash site is not considered a sensitive area and meets relevant criteria including the preferred location not
being in the River Murray protection zone or floodzone. United Landholders Group members Craig and Gill Holtham said the regional waste facility is a good initiative but cannot be located in Monash, as it will devalue the surrounding properties. “It doesn’t help that when people Google our properties they are going to see a dump right there,” Craig said. “It’s the perception,” Gill added. “Where do we live? Opposite the dump. “Our concerns are really going to push us off.” Riverland Vine Improvement Committee chairman Lindsay Dowley said he was concerned about the proposed site and the effect it could have on the surrounding horticultural areas, while Mallee Fowl Restaurant owner Caryl Michael said there is a perception in the community the committee has already chosen the final site and entrance. “None of the issues being raised are being ignored, they are being addressed,” Mr Fuller said. Concept plans and designs for the facility are expected to be released to the public next month, with a website to be launched in coming weeks. ■ Loxton winery.
Contract negotiations as Loxton winery sells By BRAD PERRY MAJOR Riverland wineries are acting quickly to secure winegrape grower contracts with the $27 million sale of Australian Vintage’s Loxton winery to be finalised today. New owner American based The Wine Group is expected to crush up to 70,000 tonnes in the coming vintage after Australian Vintage had a minimal crush last season. It is understood other wineries around the region are already attempting to secure contracts following news the company will seek local winegrapes to meet demand. Loxton Waikerie Council Mayor Leon Stasinowsky said not only will jobs be created at the facility but the local winegrape sector will have much needed competition. “Putting another competitor in the market, it might not (raise) prices but what it will do is put a bit better floor price in the system,” he said. “Hopefully it will stop that over glut where people have to drop them on the ground. “Now they may be able to get at least something for them. “I’ve already heard that...win-
eries are out there now trying to sign up growers for this harvest, so it’s already made things move and that’s good.” With The Wine Group, the world’s third largest wine company, offering employment to all existing permanent staff and the possibility of more staff to be hired, Mr Stasinowsky said the sale was a much needed investment in the region.
Apparently they are wanting up to 90,000 tonnes, so that is capacity crush.
“Apparently they are wanting up to 90,000 tonnes, so that is capacity crush which is great news for the area,” he said. “They will need more workers there, especially if they do a full vintage. “It brings more money into the town and the region.” Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the sale provides hope for the future of the winegrape industry in the Riverland.
“The sale will breathe some certainty into a battered industry and wounded grower base,” he said. “The Loxton winery sale is an indicator that industry confidence in the Riverland is turning. “Other wineries have indicated that demand is growing and will take all fruit at an increased price. “Growers will have to be vigilant and continue to produce quality fruit.” Mr Whetstone said the Riverland must not undersell itself. “History has shown what can happen when a multinational buys a Riverland brand,” he said. “This sale should be about the long-term future, not just the effect it will have next season.” Growers and community members have embraced the sale of Australia’s fourth largest winery. Former Riverland Winegrape Grower’s Association deputy chair Loxton’s Glen Arnold said the sale is a step in the right direction for the region. “It’s wonderful news for the town because it will make sure there’s more employment now in the area, which was sadly lost when the winery was moth-
balled,” he said. “(There will be) just a bit more confidence now in the future of the area.” A former winegrape grower, Mr Arnold said with the winery crushing grapes, there will be less transport costs for irrigators to transfer product to other wineries, with freight savings amounting to a reported $2 million. Loxton based Century Orchards managing director Geoff Ablett said it will be great to see the modern facility back to full production. “I think it’s been a bit of a sad thing that it’s a resource there that employed a lot of people that has been doing nothing for a few years, so it (the sale) will have to be a good thing,” he said. Currently The Wine Group operates a winery in Griffith, New South Wales, and it is understood the Loxton winery will help produce the company’s well known brands such as Fish Eye, Foxhorn and Little Roo. A sale of the winery to India’s Indage Vintners for $60 million fell through two years ago and Australian Vintage chief executive officer Neil McGuigan said the net funds from the transaction will be used to pay off debt.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Beautiful story WHAT a beautiful article Brad Perry wrote about the 65-year-old love affair between John and Pat Lill, August 11, (Celebrating the love of a lifetime). The story was complemented by Jane Wilson’s photos. It took us on a journey from the brutality of war to a faithful fiancé who never gave up hope, to an enduring and happy marriage. In the midst of 21st Century transiency, where many things and relationships are disposable and temporary, it was inspiring. Thank you for sharing this special story. Lillian Mattner, Loxton.
Contrail response IN REPLY to Andrew Stone’s letter (Chemical trails, August 4) regarding contrails and chemical spraying. Contrails are not naturally occurring.
They are caused by the hot, moist gases of an aeroplane’s exhaust, condensing in the cold air of the upper atmosphere. The same way breath turns misty on cold days. Aeroplanes fly at a cruising altitude of 28,000 to 40,000 feet, where the temperature can be anywhere from -30 degrees centigrade to 60 degrees centigrade. Their exhaust contains water vapour, carbon dioxide, oxides of sulpher and nitrogen, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, unburned fuel and tiny particles of soot and metal. Very similar to a car’s exhaust, in fact. Twenty-eight thousand feet is too high for the effective spraying of anything, especially a targeted area like the Riverland. I suggest Andrew Stone contact the Bureau of Meteorology, they will be able to answer all his questions about the strange atmospheric phenomena he has witnessed. Anna Lightowler, Taplan.

price, world parity, or market price or as little as they can pay? It is clear that someone is being misled, growers and consumers. Stop the propaganda and let’s see these so called grower bodies call for a full and open inquiry into Australian juice. None of these groups have publicly been fighting for new labeling laws, why? It has been left to Nick Xenophon, why? The juice industry is worth almost a billion dollars and growing each year, of which citrus growers get three cents a kilo . Someone must be made accountable. Ron Gray, Loxton.
Why move it? WHY move the Berri Visitor Information Centre when it is near the caravan park, hotel, toilets and shopping centre and create another vacant building on the riverfront? Bus travellers, especially pensioners, will find it too far and costly to purchase tickets and pick up parcels. Spare a thought for Stateliner, Greyhound, Townsend’s and others having to alter and print new time schedules. This move will achieve nothing with regard to tourism. Fast food is needed, as outlets close midday, Saturday, including the plaza, leaving only hotel meals. J. Martin, Berri.
In defence of council RODNEY Ralph of the Southern Mallee District Council (Misleading Information, August 4) accused me of writing a misleading letter. To substantiate the remark, “wasteful spending was not addressed by council”, I make the following points and raise the following queries. Council has spent $2.3 million on plant since 2008, including this year’s budgetary figure of $600,000.
Council spent $59,000 on solar panels and councilors were informed by the CEO that if council refrained from purchasing them it would be in breach of contract he had already entered into. This was in advance of the budget being approved. Some councillors questioned the requirement to trade a truck that had completed 500,000 kilometres for a change over price of $269,000. The manager’s cars are being turned over several years quicker than previously planned in the 10 year machinery replacement schedule. The CEO has negotiated and granted staff a five per cent wage increase in the latest enterprise bargaining agreement, above CPI with no apparent agreement reached for increased productivity gains. When questioned on this at the public consultation meeting, he could not justify the wage increase. CEO Ralph and Mayor Hancock have stated at the monthly meetings that council is in a sound financial position, until the July meeting, when they announced council could not afford any new infrastructure. Rodney Ralph is now talking about the need to cut spending. At a public meeting held in May of 2009 to discuss the concept plans for the Pinnaroo CWMS upgrade, one invitee suggested very few councils the size of Southern Mallee embark on systems of this size as it was a top of the range system. Ratepayers should be aware part of this project is being funded from rate revenue and not users charges. Council should reveal what level of funding is coming from the ratepayers for the wetlands and reuse water system. The spending by this council is not sustainable and unless councillors address the spending, ratepayers will be hit with more nine per cent rate hikes. It has taken many years of wasteful spending to create this problem and will take many more to fix it. Do we need new people in the administration of council, or do we need new councillors with improved
decision making skills to better manage council’s finances? Marilyn Smith, Parrakie.
Reply to challenge THANK you for the opportunity to respond to the challenge by four ratepayers in their joint letter of August 11 (Council Concerns). There is clear evidence that council refutes the suggestion of demonstrated wasteful spending and this is supported by the following. Council is currently reviewing a number of measures which will see a reduction in the operating deficit by end of June 2012 and beyond. Council has already agreed to indefinitely defer a major project because of professional advice received from financial consultants for budgetary constraint to be implemented. In regards to the $600,000 for machinery replacement, council is adhering to its long term plant replacement program which has received support from a treasury spokesperson engaged by the Office of State/Local Government Relations and from two other external financial advisors within local government. This approach is seen as a responsible outcome for the short and longer term to achieve financial viability for council. I see no issue with this council being regarded as leading other councils on its asset renewal program. This approach is a legal obligation placed on all councils pursuant to the Local Government Act. No additional expenditure is being incurred above or beyond what is reasonably expected by our ratepayers for critical infrastructure projects. Council will soon be consulting publicly on its new four year strategic management plan and a feature of our consultation process will be how financial constraint by council and the expectation of ratepayers are blended together for the period of this plan. Rod Ralph, Southern Mallee Council, chief executive officer.

Farewell Riverland and thank you IT SEEMS like only yesterday that I began my adventure at the Riverland Weekly. However, it is nearly four years ago that this newspaper was launched, changing my professional career forever. It has, indeed, been an honour to be the inaugural editor of the Riverland Weekly and play such a significant part in its foundation. Now, after nearly 14 years in the region, it is time for my family to move on and take up the next challenge in Gawler. There will be many things I will miss about the region, including, of course, its lifeblood, the River Murray.
REPORT BY
ROB McLEAN Sometimes I think we take the beautiful natural asset that is at our doorstep for granted. I will also miss the strong sense of community engendered by those proud people who live here and I will miss the many friends I have made during my time in the region. Thank you to the Riverland and its people, I wish you all of the best for the coming years. Keep fighting through adversity and remain proud of the wonderful place in which you live.

New name chosen for proposed tourism board...
Shelter’s horse hoax
Destination Riverland By BRAD PERRY
By BRAD PERRY
RIVERLAND tourism has taken a new direction with the naming of its future board, Destination Riverland Inc. A decision on the name of the board has come as expressions of interest are sought for eight members of the new body. The board, which will be responsible for developing the region’s tourism industry, will not have any local government members. Interim Riverland Tourism Industry Board chair Tim O’Brien said Desination Riverland will be a stand-alone, independent, incorporated association. “What we are looking to do is establish it as an independent commercial operation, the control of which comes through the tourism industry itself,” Mr O’Brien said. “We have a firm view that the board needs to be commercial rather than just representative of say, small tourism operators, or big tourism operators, or councils, or Regional Development Australia or that sort of thing. “There will be close liaison with local government but it’s not a subsidiary of local government.” The draft constitution for the new tourism body will be considered at a meeting of the interim board today. Destination Riverland Inc will comprise eight members, including the chair, with a panel consisting of Mr O’Brien,
THE Moorook Animal Shelter was inundated with phone calls last week after its name was linked to an online scam. The scam posted on the businesses’ Facebook page suggested the shelter had 52 thoroughbred horses to house by the weekend or they would be put down. Moorook Animal Shelter manager Lola McLachlan said she received phone calls from across the state, with some of an abusive nature due to the post suggesting the horses would be slaughtered if not rehomed. “We had enough calls to house 150 horses,” she said. “Everyone was very respondent but it left me at a loss because it (the scam) had Moorook Animal Shelter on it and we don’t know how it got there. “It was terrible to think that someone could have the heartlessness to do that. “They said ‘you are a non-kill organisation’ and I said ‘of course we are a non-kill organisation, do you think that I would have anything put down?’” The calls to the shelter spanned over two days last week, with some as early as 5am and the business was forced to comment on its website and Facebook page several times that the post was a hoax. “It (the phone calls) just kept coming and coming, it was disgusting,” Mrs McLachlan said. “Everyone just wanted to help out and I didn’t have any answers.” The original contact number posted on the scam did not work, so people called the shelter directly. Mrs McLachlan said she believes the scam involved the shelter, “just to see how much trouble they can cause”.
■ FUTURE: Expressions are currently being sought for eight members to comprise the new Riverland tourism board. Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson and Renmark’s Anne Ruston to select the members. “We are looking for people with commercial acumen and in parti particular, people who may
consider if they’re ready, willing and able to embrace this approach. “I’m just hopeful we can have a good, strong commercial board because if we are to make any progress on tourism
What we are looking to do is establish it as an independent commercial operation. have skills in marketing, in IT (and) in tourism as well,” Mr O’Brien said. “Tourism marketing has largely moved into an online environment and as a region, the Riverland needs to take this step. “People interested in driving the development of the Riverland’s tourism need to
up here, it has to be a commercial operation.” Mr O’Brien said the name Destination Riverland Inc was inspired by a report prepared by Advance Tourism director Norm White. “There were some references to other tourism bodies having utilised that style of name,” he said.
Once the new board is formed, the role of the organisation will be to implement a seven point Destination Development Action Plan and pursue potential funding options based on that plan. With the region’s tourism future pushing forward following a cut in South Australian Tourism funding to the Riverland Tourism Association earlier this year, Mr O’Brien said the mood is positive. “There is a good, positive feel and there’s been widespread viewpoint from people who have tourism at heart and have varying interests in the field,” he said. Expressions of interest to join the new tourism board close on August 31.

Brewery ready to unleash Judas By BRAD PERRY IN A REGION known for growing winegrapes, Australia’s only wattleseed dark ale beer is expected to help further the region’s reputation for producing high quality beverages. Murtho based Woolshed Brewery will launch its eagerly awaited new drop Judas the Dark at the Renmark Hotel tomorrow night. The unique beer will certainly be an experience, according to Woolshed Brewery manager Tom Freeman. “If we can get this right and get it on the beer scene and hopefully win some awards, it will definitely get some recognition for the area,” he said. After the brewery’s initial beer Amazon Ale was a hit with Riverlanders, Mr Freeman said the deci-
sion to produce a dark ale was based on the need for something different in the region. “We’ve been trialing the dark ale for the past six months in small trial patches and just making little adjustments to it and giving tastings to friends and families and people in the industry,” Mr Freeman said. “We were really happy with it and we’ve shown it to a couple of beer critics in Adelaide and they’ve given it the thumbs up.” What makes the new beer so unique is the use of wattleseed from Mark Lucas’ Australian Native Bushfoods. “When he roasts these wattleseed grains it gives a lovely toasty, caramel, chocolate, toffee aroma to it and we thought if we can get that in a beer, that should be terrific,” Mr
Freeman said. In fact, there is also history involved with the making of the dark ale, as Mr Lucas used to work at Wilkadene, the site of the Woolshed Brewery. “When I was a lad, Mark was a wool classer here,” Mr Freeman said. Judas the Dark will be launched on tap at the Renmark Hotel from 6pm tomorrow night and Mr Freeman said local support is vital to the success of the beer. “We’re very grateful for the support of our stockists and customers,” he said. “The key for us expanding is getting more and more of that, (through) local support, on tap. “We are really keen to get it out there and get the feedback from the local supporters.”

Life saving scouts WORKING to help growers in a time of need and helping save lives, a FaB (Family and Business) mentor scout is truly a remarkable person. Renmark man Ron Phillips is one of the local people who has taken on the FaB mentor scout role and has seen the region’s growers go through tough times. It is a role in which he has had to come to the aid of those who have told him they were so depressed they “could not even look people in the eye”. With the program’s revitalisation coming last month after having funding cut earlier in the year, Ron said he is pleased to be

“I got called to a grower who was sitting on a property with no vines left, it was just ground and he couldn’t see any future,” he said. “For him, his future and his whole life was his fruit block and he couldn’t see any direction for himself. “I sat him down and had a chat and said ‘do you realise the skills you’ve got?’ “They don’t believe they’ve got skills until it’s pointed out to them.” Listening to stories of depression and people who are on the verge of suicide has made Ron dedicated to getting the best for local blockies. “We just don’t know how many people are thinking about suicide because no one talks about it,” he said. With only three registered

Target in sight for Petticoat Lane fundraiser By CALLUM TRIFONOFF JUST $3000 is needed for St Catherine’s Home major fundraiser Petticoat Lane to hit its target of $200,000. The event has never been short of interest from the public and, as a result, has raised many funds to boost St Catherine’s and organisers are hopeful Petticoat Lane will reach its aim next Friday. “It’s always been a strong event to hold in the Riverland,” Petticoat Lane president Shirley Ingerson said. “Even when times have been tough, the community has got
behind us and supported it. “People buy $5 worth of raffle tickets on the day and don’t worry about the prizes, they just want to help with the money.” Now in its 46th year, Petticoat Lane is a family fun day that Mrs Ingerson said helps everyone, not just St Catherine’s residents.’ “As it benefits St Catherine’s residents, other people think that one day, they might need to go there,” she said. Organisers are also calling on younger people to attend the event. “It all comes down to word of mouth really,” Mrs Ingerson said.
“As new residents go into St Catherine’s, we’re encouraging their families to help and attend on the day.” Petticoat Lane has been strong in raising money for St Catherine’s, picking up $10,000 in the past two years. Treasurer Mary White said Petticoat Lane has always been a well attended event. “People from Renmark and other towns, not just Berri, come for it,” Mrs White said. “I’ve been involved with it for six years and I just love the enjoyment of it and raising money that will benefit not just St Catherine’s but the community.”

Following the negotiations, both parties are now satisfied with the outcome. “Almondco wanted to expand their factory on the Sturt Highway and they
were looking to lease land from council and because it was going to be ongoing for sometime, council decided to negotiate with Almondco in relation to the land,” Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Neil Martinson said. “We actually sold them a small section of land there and this is just a formal notice to sign and seal the documentation.”
State Government concern over end of exit grant funding ■ From Page 1 “To some degree, the Federal Government’s exit grants have been a victim of their own success,” Minister O’Brien said. “The high level of takeup underscores the scale of the problems confronting irrigation communities in particular.” Minister O’Brien said the State Government is committed to providing support for Riverland irrigators. “The South Australian Government had significant input to shaping how the program is applied in the Riverland,” he said. “We recognised that many people on smaller blocks wanted to stay living on their properties after they were taken out of production. “We argued that people should be able to stay on their farms as long as they removed irrigation infrastructure and were not operating commercially. “The State Government will continue to support and

for new employment opportunities. The Federal Government said landholders who have sold their farm and submitted a claim for the EC Exit Grant, or dispatched a claim for the grant in the mail, before close of business last Wednesday will have claims assessed under existing arrangements.

Sad end for greyhounds D
OGS chasing the bunny around the track, a lot of barking coming from the kennels and the usual stalwart volunteers busy around the complex could have meant there was a race meeting being conducted at the Riverland Greyhound Club at Barmera on Sunday. Yet, that was not the case. There was no crowd, the betting ring was empty and the usual excellent catering was not on offer. I knew most of the club Trojans that were there, including leading breeder-owner-trainer Bruce Lellmann, ’Jack of all Trades’ Don Gordon, lure driver Linton Price, race caller Brenton Nixon and president Leo O’Leary. However, they were not necessarily going about their normal duties. For example, O’Leary was not in his race day master of ceremonies type role but instead he was somewhat grim as he was doing the things people do when they are closing down a business.
Facing change Up to 60 greyhounds have been brought to the track to trial in recent weeks with trainers travelling from as far away as Red Cliffs and Merbein. However, they will now be forced to have their practice runs elsewhere, as earlier this week the Riverland Greyhound Racing Club, at Barmera, advised Greyhound Racing SA that it would not be seeking dates for another season of racing. It was closing down, or you could perhaps argue being closed down. As previously reported, as part of the industry’s strategic plan of July 2007, country clubs, including Riverland, had been given until the end of September to demonstrate their long term viability. They would have to generate sufficient income to fund local stake money, capital and maintenance requirements for the next three years. The GRSA heads considered that after a review of racing across the state and for the benefit of all in the industry, a preferred option
■ END: The last lure has been chased by greyhounds past the finishing post at the Barmera track, leaving club president Leo O’Leary with a heavy heart. Photo: JANE The Barmera track components went up for sale this week as well but already a lot of the club’s assets have been sold, or offers to purchase them are on the table. There has been lots of money spent on the betting enclosure, the recently updated kennels and other buildings and equipment on the property over the years. Then there is the clubrooms, with its furniture and fittings, its fully equipped kitchen and bar. Here Leo explains that the Berri Barmera Council has been particularly supportive and understanding during this tough situation. “Look, I can’t say much Charlie, as negotiations are still going on between us, (but) the council and some other clubs (are) possibly interested in using the building and land in the future,” he said. “I can say we owe only $23,000 on a building built in 1988 for $123,000 and if things can be sorted out and other clubs perhaps are interested in moving in and have a use for the gear, we will leave it all here and try to work something out with them.” Already I noticed most of the photos and memorabilia have been stripped from the clubroom walls. “The photos for all of the greyhounds are being handed to the connections
REPORT BY
GRAHAM CHARLTON was to follow the example of other states and have only four TAB tracks in SA, including Angle Park and Gawler. It depends on who you talk to as to whether those changes will be successful in the end.
Big decision Here in the Riverland, the local non TAB club considered that without the annual injection of some $60,000 from the board towards stake money in particular, it could not meet the strategic plan requirements. So a club that received its licence in 1973, took out a 25 year lease on its present site that year from the local council at 10 cents per annum and opened modern new clubrooms in 1988 has closed. I spoke to Leo O’Leary for a couple of hours on Sunday and again he gave me a conducted tour of the complex that was described only recently by a leading official from Adelaide as “the best track in SA outside of the Adelaide headquarters”. In fact, Leo showed me a copy of the plans that had been used to build the Angle Park track. “We copied them here in 1973,” he said, “our track is the same as theirs”.

or their families where we are able,” Leo said. “The board made some suggestion that they go to headquarters but we feel they are better off being retained in the Riverland. “They would make a great display if that local museum type idea being talked about ever got off the ground.”
Champions Some photographs still remained on tables, amongst them, Colin and Joan Wachtel’s ‘Lady Conquest’ and Ross and Dorrie Smith’s ‘Smithy Belle’, both Adelaide Cup winners. That led me to ask Leo which Riverland greyhound had, in his opinion, been the best of all over the years? Sam Condo’s ‘Ginger’ was a champion and had won a Melbourne Cup so had to be right up there. He also thought Daryl Mader and Barry Wyman’s ‘Smokey Sheen’, with both an Adelaide Oaks and St Ledger success, and Bruce Lellmann’s ‘Hail a Harley’ had also been outstanding performers.
Then he hastened to add that Lellmann’s current sensation ‘Stack ‘Em Flat’ was turning in some amazing performances in Melbourne and was capable of perhaps being the best ever still. For a time on Sunday Lellmann joined our discussion and we talked about where the industry was going. He was emphatic in his belief that if authorities did not get the breeding side of things right, greyhound racing could get into even more trouble. Racing is now being held at either the Angle Park or Gawler tracks every day or night, Monday to Friday. However, it will no longer be held on the Barmera track, with the last meeting held on June 4. I reckon that there might be a bit of a wake though, with the club’s only two SA Greyhound Volunteer of the Year award winners Leo O’Leary and Don Gordon joining with their loyal band of helpers to give the club a fair sort of a send off.
Hard fight Believe me, the RGRC people have fought hard to save their club. The minutes of a recent meeting of 19 interested parties in Adelaide show that O’Leary and his mates did

not go down without a fight. “What has really brought this on?” I asked Leo. “It is all about the number of dogs,” he replied. “It has nothing to do with finance. “Believe me, I asked a few pertinent questions at that last meeting and the bank balances are okay but it is about dog numbers at the Adelaide TAB tracks.” It will be interesting then to see how this decentralisation unfolds in the industry, as there does not appear to have been an immediate change at the city meetings. Admittedly there are more being held but authorities would be concerned that the ‘nominations extended’ and ‘vacant box’ signs are being pulled out regularly. As I said some time ago, surely when you spray weed killer on the grassroots you must cause problems further up the plant. Greyhound racing at the Barmera complex is a thing of the past. Now that is sad. However, the people involved in the club are a resilient lot and there is already talk of a drag lure straight track being built somewhere in the area that will enable trainers access to a trial facility.

BERRI BARMERA LOCAL ACTION PLANNING Committee Update
From the Project . . . k s e D ’s r e g a n a M Welcome to our latest BBLAP update. You will notice throughout there are a number of opportunities for you to be get involved in a variety of activities. Feel free to contact me if you want to know more about any of these, we would love to see you. The BBLAP Committee has secured $84,500 in funding from the SA MDB NRM Board for the 2011/12 financial year and we look forward to continuing our close working relationship with the board to achieve a positive environmental outcome for the Berri Barmera area. Looking forward, it is going to be essential that the LAP committee secures some level of funding outside of government grants to ensure its long term future, and this is something we will endeavour to focus on. In late June we said farewell to Sam Blight, who has taken up a role with the Coorong and District LAP based in Tintinara. Sam did a fantastic job assisting me over the time she was with us, implementing several new projects and finalising a number of key reports, including our walking trails concept plan and an options analysis for the Overland Corner wetland. I would like to publicly thank Sam for all the effort she put into her role, and wish her well for the future. One of the articles in this update is about the oriental weatherloach, a noxious species of fish, which for the first time, has been recorded in South Australia since the floods. This species has the capacity to cause significant harm to native fish and can survive in most conditions, including on land and in mud! It has so far been found in wetlands between Chowilla and Waikerie. Finally, I would like to advise that our annual general meeting will be held at the LAP office on Thursday, November 10. We will advertise this again closer to the date.
■ PLANTS: Revegetation activities undertaken by local landholders during 2011.
Native Revegetation THE BBLAP Committee has this year provided six local landowners with free native trees and shrubs. In addition, we have provided technical support to a number of other landholders who have undertaken direct seeding activities. These revegetation projects have been undertaken for a variety of purposes, including replanting cleared irrigation blocks with natives, enhancing patches of remnant
native vegetation or extending the area of native vegetation on a property. In partnership with the Kungun Centre at Glossop, the BBLAP Committee will again be propagating native plants to provide to landholders for planting in 2012. If you would like to be considered to receive some free plants next year, please get in contact with Paul at the BBLAP office by the end of September on 8582 2183, so we can adequately plan for your requirements.
Native plant workshops IN-LINE with our revegetation program and native plant nursery at the Kungun Centre, the BBLAP Committee is planning on holding a number of workshops relating to seed collection, plant propagation, plant identification and weed management. The exact content and timing
■ TOUR: Paticipants discussing matters on the previous wetlands tour
of each workshop will be subject to community needs and expectations. So, if you wish to learn more about any aspect of native plants, please contact Paul on 8582 2183 so we can tailor and schedule these workshops to your requirements.
Spring wetland bus tour planned for October THE Berri Barmera LAP Committee will again be running a wetland bus tour later this year. As we have reported on in previous updates, these tours are very popular and showcase how effective wetland management can enhance our local environment. This year’s tour will be the first since the flood last

National Tree Day
Oriental weatherloach
THE Berri Lions Club once again hosted students from Berri primary and Glossop high schools for their annual National Tree Day planting event at Martins Bend. Around 80 students, supported by eight members of the Berri Lions Club and three volunteers from Big River Toyota, planted a total of 250 trees at the marina end of the Martins Bend wetland, predominantly along the edge of the walking trail. These plants were a mixture of river red gums, black box and river coobah and will greatly assist in the regeneration of
(Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) The Oriental Weatherloach was recently, and for the first time, recorded in South Australia. This pest fish has been established in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria for some time, but it is a significant and Noxious Listed species in this state.
State Government agencies are working to prevent further spread of the oriental weatherloach. It is important that people know and understand what this pest fish is so that it is not transferred to other waterways or returned to the water.
This species is known to impact native fish by eating juveniles or species eggs. It also breeds rapidly, and in high numbers, and is extremely tolerant to a wide range of environmental conditions. These include long dry periods, during which the weatherloach will bury themselves into mud to survive. Due to the rapid growth of populations, their tolerance to a range of conditions and potential to negatively impact native fish, the occurrence of this species is cause for concern.
What does it look like • are a relatively small-sized fi sh known to reach up to 25cm in length, but are more often 20cm long • have an elongate and cylindrical body • are generally orange-yellow to yellow-grey in colour, darker along their back with black and dark brown spots • have five pairs of small barbels around the mouth, three on the upper jaw and two on the lower jaw. The Oriental Weatherloach gets its name from its apparent restlessness

this site. In addition to planting the trees, students were also fortunate enough to get the opportunity to listen to Tim Inkster and Irene Wegener from the SA MDB NRM Board. Tim and Irene kindly stepped in at the last minute (in my absence due to the arrival of our new baby girl!) to provide an informative interactive session to the students on the wonders of the Martins Bend wetland. The Berri Barmera LAP Committee would like to thank all involved for another highly successful event.
The oriental weatherloach is a noxious listed species through the Fisheries Management Act 2007 and it is therefore illegal for people to have this species. If you find this fish, do not return it to the water or leave it on the bank; bag it, freeze it, bin it! Biosecurity SA is monitoring the spread of this species and is asking that all individuals found be reported. You can report your sighting too: FISHWATCH on 1800 065 522 (free call) or www.pir.sa.gov.au/biosecuritysa The information that will be requested is:
What it is not! The Oriental Weatherloach may be mistaken for the native freshwater catfish (Tandanus tandanus), particularly their juveniles. Freshwater catfish also have barbels around the mouth, but are distinguishable from the Oriental Weatherloach by the shape and tail:
where exactly was it found, when was it found (including time of day), how many were found, what size where they and did you catch, or observe, other fish species near where the weatherloach was caught? If you’re able to take a photo of the weatherloach on your mobile phone or camera, we’d encourage an image being sent in with your report.
Catfish
■ Information provided by Biosecurity SA
Native catfish grow larger in size, are flattened ventrally (top to bottom) and have a tail fin which begins at the top, extending to the back and around underneath to the anal fin.
Oriental Weatherloach The Oriental Weatherloach instead is cylindrical in shape and has a distinct, rounded tail fin at the end of the body.
■ PLANTING: Students and volunteers were activly involved in National Tree Day
Wetlands regenerating WITH the majority of floodwaters now receded back to the river and deeper wetlands, we are already starting to see some regeneration of plants on the floodplain. Whilst it will take some time yet to identify exactly what has germinated, we have seen numerous patches of eucalypts (river red gum and/or black box) and a variety of understorey species. As expected, there has also been significant germination of weeds and these will be mapped and control programs implemented during spring. ■ REGENERATION: Wetlands are looking healthier than they have in a long time, (background) eucalypts are germinating everywhere following the flood.

Rural News Rain boosts crops By BRAD PERRY WITH the drought behind them, Riverland and Mallee grain farmers are embracing liquid gold falling on their crops again this year. Rain in recent days and steady grain prices have given farmers optimism for the coming harvest. Karoonda farmer Leighton Huxtable said while more rain will be required in the coming months, the outlook is positive. “All of our crops were going along okay but this (the rain) has really topped things up quite nicely,� he said. “We’ll need more yet because the crops are reasonably heavy and as the days get warmer, they are go-
ing to need a fair bit of moisture to fulfil their potential. “It’s just the sort of rains we need to keep happening to take things right through to try and get a good year.� Mr Huxtable said last year’s bumper harvest was a “catch-up� season following a decade of problems. “You’ve got your dry years and prices being so poor at times...and there were some frost issues in 2000 and 2001,� he said. “All in all it has been pretty hard going. “Last year was certainly a lot better and in a lot of cases a catch-up year.� The cereal crops are as good, if not better than last year at the mo-
ment, according to Mr Huxtable. “I think our crops are as good as last year,� he said. “Bearing in mind we had a fantastic spring last year.� While crops such as canola are still recovering from poor germanation and mice problems, Mr Huxtable said a number are strong. “There are some in the northern Mallee that were put in dry early and that has got up and is flowering pretty strongly at the moment,� he said. Loxton dryland farmer Leon Stasinowsky said recent rains have changed the season’s outlook. “Now we’ve had this rain in the past couple of weeks, it has changed things around, it’s looking pretty good,� he said.
Pollination delay for almond harvest By BRAD PERRY

WITH almond trees right across the region in bloom, local growers are hoping for a positive season. While wet weather has delayed pollination, there is hope growers can push through the season unscathed by disease. Century Orchards managing director Geoff Ablett said the early season reports for the Loxton business suggest the season may be about average. “It would be nice if it was a bit dryer during the day for the bees to fly,� he said. “I think there is some good potential out there.� Mr Ablett said beehives will be moved out of the orchards in the next week or so. “It might be a little bit early but its not a great deal of difference to a normal year,� he said. With many horticulture industries impacted by disease last season, Mr Ablett said the wet weather could potentially be

a major problem in the coming season. “It has been a wet start to the year,� he said. “It could be a challenging year for diseases and I think it is important we keep on our game with our sprays and our preventive practices to make sure we do keep disease levels low, if it turns out to be as wet as I think it may.�
It would be nice if it was a bit dryer during the day for the bees to fly.
As many growers push forward with the almond season, some in Renmark and surrounding areas are still counting the costs of the recent hail storm.
Mouse plague return? IN A BID to co-ordinate preparations for and response to Australia’s mouse plague, a national working group has been founded. With support from the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC), the National Mouse Management Working Group (NMMWG) has been conceived, with a plague likely to occur in late spring and into summer, according to State Government reports. NMMWG chair Simon Humphrys said grain grow-
ers and others likely to be affected by the plague, will be given critical information and resources. “Around three million hectares in the southern cropping region was affected in autumn, which has already cost growers around $200 million in losses,� Dr Humphrys said. “Mouse numbers have retreated in recent months but, in parts of Australia, sufficiently high densities have persisted, despite baiting problems.� The group is expected to meet on a regular basis.
Course to teach people about environment GROWSMART Training is undertaking an environmental course centred at Calperum Station. The course will teach people about the local natural environment and how they can assist in maintaining it in good condition. “We are fortunate in the Riverland to have areas of national parks and wetlands that are being kept in their natural state or being rehabilitated with the support of government, companies, other organisations and interested people,� GrowSmart Training’s John Chase said. “In the last two years GrowSmart Training has been pleased to be able to provide training in conservation and land management and have run successful programmes at Calperum Station and at the Monarto Zoo.� The course is called Introduction to Conservation and Land Management and will be available for the remainder of the year. If anyone would like to learn about native plants and the environment, gaining skills

Thanks for helping THE Riverland Natural Resource Management Group recently thanked its local volunteers for their contribution to caring for the region’s environment. Riverland NRM chair Ken Stokes said the volunteers present represented a wide range of Riverland environmental organisations, including the Whirlpool Corner Wetland, Hart Lagoon Wetland, Pike River Land Management, Ramco Wetland Management and Overland Corner Wetland groups, and Friends of Parks. Members of the Cooltong
Community Group and Bookmark Creek Action Group were also welcomed, together with Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone, who acknowledged the contribution volunteers were making to NRM in the region. “As the number of people involved in volunteering on projects throughout the region shows, local communities are keen to contribute to on-ground achievements that improve our environment and they see the SA MDB NRM Board as an important partner to link with,� Mr Stokes said.

Commodore takes top spot again H
OLDEN has recorded another solid sales performance in July with Australia’s favourite family car, the Commodore, returning to number one position in the annual sales race. According to figures released today by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI), Commodore reclaimed year-to-date market leadership and was also the best performing vehicle for the month with 3551 sold and a 53.2 per cent share of the large car segment. Commodore’s baby brother, the Adelaide-built Cruze, added to its incredible 2011 sales performance, with Australians snapping up more than 3000 units for the second consecutive month. The popular small car range, which features the most fuel-efficient car built in Australia, was the number two small car in July with 3123 units sold and a 16.9 per cent share of the small car segment. It was Cruze’s best July sales performance since its 2009 launch. Other strong performing Holden car lines included the

which was reflected in Holden’s steady market share. “Our strong July results come off the back of some great locally-built product,� Mr Brock said. “Commodore sedan and sportwagon models continue to draw plenty of attention in our showrooms, while the customer reaction to the Series II Cruze has been quite phenomenal. “We plan to build on this
family-friendly Series II Captiva range, which continued its steady performance with 1083 sales of Captiva 7 (765 units) and Captiva 5 (318 units) for the month. Overall, Holden recorded a solid July market share of 13.4 per cent, selling a total of 10,819 units. Holden director of sales Philip Brook said July was a sound month for Holden across a number of car lines,
momentum in the second half of the year as we continue to roll out new models across the Holden range. “Our next-generation Barina and locally-designed Cruze hatch are just around the corner and we expect the launch of these models to cap off a strong year.� Year-to-date, Holden has sold 73,389 vehicles and has a market share of 12.7 per cent.
THIS year’s Balaklava Ute Show is so much more than just an event for motorheads, offering a day of mixed entertainment. Show convener Gavin Hahesy said the event always gets locals and out-of-towners keen for a great day out. “For people who don’t want to come for just the utes, they can watch the horses or go on the rides,� Mr Hahesy said. “Of course, though, there is the ute show, a lot of people from all
around come for that.� One of the biggest attractions to the show is the amount of prizes that can be won in various competitions on the day. “For the utes, the judges pick a best ute and it’s not just that,� Mr Hahesy said. “There’s a whole range of prizes available in other events. “Not many go home empty handed.� The Balaklava Ute Show will be held at the Balaklava Show Grounds on September 24.

Owning your dream home sooner O
wning your first home may seem like a lifetime away – and new research shows that most homebuyers are now likely to be in their 30s or older before the Great Australian Dream becomes reality. The latest AMP.NATSEM Income and Wealth report: The Great Australian Dream – Just a Dream? found the typical first home buyer is much older than 10 years ago because housing in all cities throughout the nation has become unaffordable. The property price boom has seen mortgages for first homebuyers more than double over the past decade, with the average loan by a first homebuyer at $131,000 in 2001 compared to $280,000 in 2011.

they think. To get started, it’s back to basics with budgeting. Sit down and list all your income and expenses on a budgeting spreadsheet, or use a budgeting calculator which can be found online. This will give you a budget that can help to identify possible savings and assist with working out your needs versus wants. You could well discover that by trimming your lifestyle without losing all the things you enjoy, you actually have more disposable income than you thought. As a general rule, you should aim to save a 20 per cent deposit on your first home, keeping in mind there are additional costs such as stamp duty, conveyance fees and moving costs – and if you borrow more than 80 per cent of a property’s value, your bank or finans !LL RETURN TYPES s 4AX ASSISTANCE ALL YEAR ROUND cial institution will require you to pay s 0ERSONAL BUSINESS s 3HARES INVESTMENTS mortgage insurance.

The report says that 37 per cent of first homebuyers in 2011 are under the age of 30, compared to 39 per cent 10 years ago.

Some of these online accounts have no fees, offer high interest and the funds are available on a daily basis, whereas with a term deposit your money is locked in for a certain period. The key, however, is to be disciplined and only access this money in an emergency. Next, set up a direct transfer so a portion of your salary goes straight into this savings account – what money you don’t see in your everyday account, you won’t even miss. First homebuyers who qualify should also open a First Home Saver Account. These accounts gives you concessional tax treatment on earnings, plus government contributions to help you save towards your dream home. For more details about First Home Saver Accounts, take a look at the Australian Taxation Office website www.ato.gov.au. However, what’s important to remember is that keeping your cash in the bank should only ever be a one or two year maximum savings plan. Anything beyond this time and people need to be looking at longer-term strategies with higher growth. If you think you are at least three years away from buying a home, an option to maximise your savings with excellent returns is to park the cash in a managed fund, investment bond or share portfolio.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON
The T Riverland’s most authoritative sports commentator ...
Lifetime racing fan has one heck of a story to tell and...
He’s also got something to sell, if you’ve got the money ■ COME rain, hail or shine you will find John Holzer, 76, manning the gate on home games for the Berri Football Club. It is a job he has performed for eight seasons and such is the reputation he has gained for the professional way he goes about his duties, he will shortly be enlisted for another series of Riverland Football League finals around the various grounds. John spent his early days living in Melbourne’s Coburg. A plasterer by trade, he always had an abundance of work and was even involved in preparations for the 1956 Olympics. However, after the Games the work dried up completely. Married to Jean in 1958, they moved to Mentone where he played football for the suburb’s under 18s and senior teams.
radio while working on a fruit property at Loxton, saw him re-enter the building trade and start a new life for his family in the Riverland lasting 38 years. Throughout he has maintained his interest in thoroughbreds and amongst his possessions he has a quilt that is very rare indeed, some 80 years old. It is a replica of the front page of the Melbourne Sun of Tuesday, November 3, 1931, with a large picture of the horse and the headline, “Will Phar Lap Make Turf History – Horse Carrying 10/10 in Melbourne Cup”.
The legend
Sporting love However, with his home near the Mentone Racecourse, which was being used as a training facility only in those days, the lure of the ‘Sport of Kings’ captured him completely and horse racing has been his main sporting interest ever since. John is one of those people that never ceases to amaze me. Get into a conversation with him about the racing game and he rattles off encyclopedia like details of races, trainers and jockeys. With the stables of trainer Fred Hoysted at the back of the Holzer property, John spent a lot of time there and there was talk of a young bloke being a bit of a pest around the set-up. “I think that must have been me,” John said. At Mentone he became a milk deliveryman in and around the local streets. Racing personalities were everywhere and ‘Milky’ became known to many as they worked their horses on his round. He has many a story to tell. “Blokes like Bob Hoysted, W.A. Smith, Brian Courtney, ‘Meggsy’ Ellington, Tommy Woodcock, Jack ‘Grumpy’ Besenko and Arthur Prentice all lived close by,”
■ MEMORABILIA: Barmera man John Holzer with a Phar Lap quilt featuring headlines of the day about the famous horse. John is hoping to sell the quality piece for the right money. Photo: BRAD PERRY he said. “I often ran into legends like jockey George Moore and I was always amongst the racing people at the local Royal Oak Hotel.”
Horse talk “The best horse I ever saw was Tulloch, no doubt, and there is my biggest disappointment,” he adds. “In 1956 I had invested on Tulloch for the Caulfield - Mel-
bourne Cup double and when it was scratched from the Melbourne race after it won the first leg, it probably cost me a new Holden car.” He has had plenty of opportunity to watch the great horses go around, too. “I have been to 10 Melbourne Cups, the first in 1950 when Comic Court won and last in 1983 when Kiwi, second last with 500 metres to run, won at 9/1. I was on that,” he said.
Leaving Melbourne John Holzer has known it tough on occasions. With five young children, he and Jean drove out of Melbourne in 1973 after an unfortunate accident had cost him dearly. He went looking for work wherever he could find it, even as far as Townsville. Yet, by chance, an advertisement he heard on the
Beaton’s here for netty presentations ■ THE RIVERLAND Netball Association has announced that Adelaide Thunderbirds star Emily Beaton will be the special guest at its annual presentation night at the Barmera-Monash Football Club on Saturday, August 27. Emily, who spent her younger days living with her family in the Riverland, started playing netball as an eight year old and has gone on to represent the Thunderbirds since 2008 and is currently a member of the Australian Diamonds squad. Nicknamed ‘Bells’, the 24year-old centre wing attack aspires to winning another ANZ Championship with the Thunderbirds to go with the one taken out in 2010 and to rep-
resent the Diamonds’ number one team. Already she has played for the Austalian Fastnet Diamonds, comprising the sport’s most promising under 25 athletes. She travelled to England last November for the world netball series that brought the six top nations together for a tournament in the modified version of the game. The Australian team contained seven current Australian Diamonds players and was led by head coach Norma Plummer and just missed out on medals, losing both of its finals by one goal. Tickets for the RNA ■ VISIT: Adelaide Thunderbirds player Emily Beaton will be the night are available from club guest speaker at this year’s RNA presentation night. secretaries. Photo: SUPPLIED
In the four years of his racing career, Phar Lap won 37 of his 51 races, including the Melbourne Cup in 1930, carrying 9 stone 12 lbs. Over 1930-31 he won 14 races in a row but in that 1931 cup, he finished eighth as the weight proved too much. In fact, amazingly, from the time he won the VRC St Ledger Stakes as a three year old, until his final race in Mexico, that 1931 Melbourne Cup was the only occasion he finished out of the top two placings. From 35 starts he won 32 races and finished second twice, by a short head and a neck. “Jean was born in 1931 and her mother must have purchased the quilt to mark the occasion,” John said. “We did not know it existed and it was only found when the ‘old lady’ passed away.” John has been trying to have the item of memorabilia valued, as he says he has no real need for the quilt. “It is for sale,” he said. “If anyone is interested in making a fair offer.” In an age where we often lament the absence of the real characters of yesteryear from sport, and perhaps from life generally, spend some time chatting to John Holzer and I am sure you will agree he has real claims to such a title.
Musical chairs in local sport ■ TALK about some last minute sporting musical chairs… In local A1 netball, a one goal win by 2010 champions Loxton against Berri last Friday night saw the teams change places on the premiership ladder and Loxton grab second spot and the valuable double chance. In Independent football, East Murray and Ramco also switched positions after the last of the minor round matches on Saturday. The Tigers will now play in this Sunday’s knockout semi-final and Ramco will miss out on major round action. The Mallee league also
finished its preliminaries last weekend, with Murrayville keeping second ranking with a victory over rivals Lameroo and Karoonda defeating Pinnaroo convincingly to move into fourth position as BDT shattered Peake’s hopes of finals glory. One team that did finally get the opportunity to pop the corks for celebration was men’s senior soccer backto-back league champion Barmera Dev Estate. A 5-1 win against clubmates Gold gave it the points required to clinch the title after surprise losses to Berri River Rangers and Renmark Olympic over the two previous Sundays.

An extra special premiership ■ PLAYERS and officials involved with the Loxton Football Club’s 1971 A Grade premiership are gathering at the Loxton Oval on Saturday for a reunion. The occasion is also a time when we can all reflect on one of the most outstanding efforts by a coach and his players in the history of the local game. The year 1971 was a coaching triumph for former Sturt and Loxton player Allen Goldfinch when he rebuilt a side after massive player losses from the previous year’s premiership team, overcame a mid season slump and went on to a huge upset in the grand final against overwhelming favourites Waikerie. From the successful 1970 lineup, only nine remained by 1971 grand final day, with those gone including Kerry Hamilton, Rick Schubert, Lew Westbrook, Michael Gladigau, David Lock, Ian McLaren, Malcolm Bartsch a nd Bill Pontt.
New blood Incoming players had included Peter Senic, back from Norwood, Allan Todd, Gary Klose, Simon Nelson, Don Eagle and Peter Madden. Goldfinch, the only senior coach reappointed by any of the clubs for the season, had to call on a number of youngsters to fill some
Finals berth par for course ■ EVERGREEN Berri golfer Brian Martin is bound for the finals of his club’s 2011 championships after he finished in the top eight in the qualifying rounds last weekend. Yet, that is certainly nothing new for Brian, as this is the 50th year on end that he has qualified in this way, either at his original club at Murray Bridge or at Berri. He first qualified as a 16 year old at Murray Bridge where he went on to win 12 titles and since being at Berri has won another 13 championships, the last in 2008. The 2011 quarter and semi-finals are this weekend and finals seven days later.
Then in the second semi-final, a long kick from Robert Fielke to Eagle for a goal, with only moments to go, gained the Tigers a grand final berth by a whisker 13.6 (84) to 13.4 (82) after they had trailed Berri by 49 points at the first change and 33 at half time. Then there was grand final day itself at Loxton North. Waikerie had finished the minor round like a runaway train and having easily disposed of Renmark in the first semi-final replay and Berri 16.8 (104) to 9.15 (69) in the preliminary, the media and all and sundry had declared the Magpies hot favourites for the flag in their first grand final appearance since 1939.
The big day
■ PREMIER: Robert Fielke will be among the Tiger stars commemorating the 40th anniversary of Loxton’s 1971 premiership on Saturday. Photo: FILE voids urgently and would have been thrilled by the rapid improvement of juniors like Julian Nickolai and Allan Erwin. On the way to the flag there were three standout developments. Firstly, the delay caused by
a draw in the first semi-final between Renmark and Waikerie meant that ace centreman Peter Senic could play in the second semi after wedding commitments would have ruled him out on the programmed day.
I recall the day at Panther Park with a crowd of 4000 well. We often hear a coach say that “his team was up for it” or that “they came to play”. Well the young Tigers, no doubt responding to the media hype about their opponent, did just that and I have recollections of ‘Goldy’ remarking something along the lines of “I really didn’t have to say much, they were ready”. Early on, the forecasts of a Magpie flag looked on target but the progressive scores probably tell the story best.
Major round football action kicks off in Indys and Mallee ■ THERE is every indication the titanic struggles for places in the top four in the Mallee and Independent football competitions will carry over to the major rounds that start this weekend. In the Mallee, Lameroo and Karoonda clash in the knockout semi-final. The Hawks have not ended the preliminary contests in great touch, relinquishing the double chance to rivals Murrayville by 44 points last Saturday and it will take big efforts from players like skipper Steven Kerley, Matt and Josh Ridgway and Dan Wohling to get them over the line against a super keen Karoonda. The Magpies showed signs of a return to form against Pinnaroo last time out with Mail Medal favourite Corey Knight, Dale Bradley and Zac Bullard showing the way.
How d do you pick it? You don’t, you just throw a dart. Paringa, just.
In the Independents, two beau ties are lined up in a full weekend of finals. Saturday, it’s the second semi-final between 2010 premiers Lyrup and Paringa at East Murray, with both sides boasting exceptional player depth. Dean Hill, 12 goals in his last
game, captain Andrew Lloyd, Chris Gardner, the Rover brothers and co for the Swans, coming off a bye, look ready to go. They will take on Jason Marr, Kenny Karpany, new signing Travis Wilson and a host more. How do you pick it? You don’t, you throw a dart. Paringa, just. Sunday it is the last hurrah for either Blanchetown-Swan Reach or East Murray. The weather could play a part in this, in view of East Murray’s lack of height, but either way, blokes like Michael and Zac Kirk, Zak Schubert and goalkicker Kale Smith have them right in the contest. BSR will start favouruites however, particularly after it got to within 17 points of Lyrup last week and with Jed Martinson, Dale Payne and Jamie Tanner at full throttle, should win.
Loxton 3.3 6.11 11.17 18.23 (131) Waikerie 5.0 7.1 9.3 10.3 (63)
Tiger spirit Best players for the Tigers were Pat McCann (best on ground and six goals), Todd, Peter Madden, Senic, Bob Carlier, Nickolai and Chris Tschirpig, with the other goal scorers Nelson and Senic (three), Eagle (two), Robert Graetz, Robert Fielke, Carlier and Tschirpig (one). This was obviously a real backs to the wall team effort, perhaps supported by Loxton having the smallest representation of all of the clubs in the Hoffmann Team of the Year, with only Senic and McCann gaining selection. This weekend’s reunion actually coincides with the Tigers playing the Magpies at Loxton. Festivities will commence with a get-together at 2pm on Saturday, with a motor cavalcade of 1971 players at half time in the A Grade game, a presentation of those involved to the gathering in the clubrooms after the match and a 1971 dinner at 7pm. A champagne brunch is set down for the riverside on Sunday. Looking through the line-up from that 1971 grand final, I would not mind $1 for every time the phrase “Tiger Spirit” gets a mention over the weekend.
Brought back to Earth with a thud ■ RIVERLAND Be Active field officer Adrian Pipe has submitted this as a contender for a quote of the week award. “Alcohol is a central nervous system sedative. It delays reaction times, impairs judgement, and makes your sporting career seem much better than it really was.” Perhaps I have one too. Last week I was shocked to find that someone had found a space for me in a newspaper insert that went around the state. Legendary? Where did that come from? No chance of a big head though, as my eldest granddaughter figured, “’legendary’ Poppa, that must mean when you are getting old”. I still love ya, Brooke.

Licencing rules mean that Riverland Football League...
Will be on the ball with finals security By CALLUM TRIFONOFF RIVERLAND Football League finals games will see increased security and a zero tolerance policy on bringing your own alcohol and glass bottles this year. Eskies will be checked upon arrival at gates at venues and with improved security, RFL chief executive Wendy Kruger said it should make the games
more family friendly. “For family reasons, I think it’s great because you don’t want kids hearing all the rubbish that goes on with alcohol,” Mrs Kruger said. “When people do bring glass in, it can be a bit of a problem because you’ve only got to get someone in the crowd to throw a bottle at someone and it can cause problems.” In the past, it has just
been the grand final with a no BYO alcohol or glass rule and improved security but Mrs Kruger said it was the best thing to do for the semi-finals and preliminary final. “It probably will make (spectators) unhappy but we’ve got to do what we can to enforce it,” she said. “We’ll have two security (guards) on every gate from the gate opening until half-
time. “Then, we’ve got four security patrolling the oval from 12.30pm and then the other two from the gate will go around as well. “So, we’ll have six, in total, patrolling the oval.” Mrs Kruger said she expected visits from licensing officials to the region during the finals series, hence the strong focus on alcohol and security.

Finals fever hits sport ■ From Page 32 RNA president Wendy Gambling said the season has been exciting and the finals this weekend should be no different. “When (it) comes to the finals, it comes down to who can actually take the pressure,” Mrs Gambling said. “It’s been a really great competition, especially in the top four but I take nothing away from Barmera or Waikerie, they’ve been really competitive. “This year, Renmark have been the pacesetters and they just seem to be able to swap players around in any part of the court.” Last time the teams met, Renmark won by 10 goals but Mrs Gambling expects a tighter game this time around. “Loxton have been able to swap their players around (too) and it just shows the depth of these two teams,” she said. “It’s a tough game...it’ll probably go down to goalfor-goal.” Mrs Gambling predicts Loxton North’s experience and Berri’s young force to create an entertaining clash in the first semi-final. “For Loxton North, Karina Tschirpig and Lisa Koehne
have been tough competitors in defence,” she said. “Berri, in their attacking play and midcourt play, have been excellent. “Michelle Wenman and Tori Jachmann have had great seasons and Kimberley Wade is such a playmaker through the middle.” Meanwhile, in the Riverland Independent Netball Association, East Murray will face a tough test when it takes on form side BlanchetownSwan Reach in the second semi-final. Thrashed in the first meeting of the pair, East Murray redeemed itself to get within four goals in the next meeting and, having proved itself to be a challenger, could cause an upset this weekend. BSR’s record this year speaks for itself and, with big wins over Cobdogla and Paringa, will be the favourite to win the flag. In the first semi-final, Ramco will host Brown’s Well, with both teams narrowly squeezing into the top four. In their only clash, Ramco came out on top 41-26 and will be confident it can find a way through to the preliminary final. However, Brown’s Well is capable of causing an upset,
as it did against East Murray earlier in the year and could get on top this week. It is set to be one of the tightest finals series in Riverland Independent football history and games are expected to go either way. Neck-and-neck in the premiership race, Lyrup and Paringa will square off at East Murray in what should be a mouth-watering clash, with both teams only losing once, to each other, this season. In the other match, Blanchetown-Swan Reach will host East Murray at Paruna. The finals series is expected to be so close that even RFL executive officer Wendy Kruger cannot predict who will be victorious on that one day in September. “Paringa and Lyrup are very close but BSR aren’t far behind them,” Mrs Kruger said. “I really wouldn’t like to make a choice on who’s going to win the grand final, they’ve all got the ability to do it.” Riverland Football League finals start next week, while the region’s hockey still has several minor round matches to play. In soccer, the Top Four Cup starts on September 11.
Two straight for Dev Estate By CALLUM TRIFONOFF BARMERA Dev Estate retained the Riverland soccer premiership with a 5-1 win over Barmera Gold at the Berri number two oval on Sunday, capturing a first back-to-back title for the club. A hat-trick from Geordie Franks and goals from Anthony Ielasi and Kyle Lehman cancelled out Gold junior James Wallace’s superb strike and secured the premiership. Dev Estate, which before the weekend, had seemingly let challengers Berri River Rangers and Renmark Olympic back in the hunt with two consecutive losses, can now rest up for three weeks and prepare for the Top Four Cup in September. If successful in that, Dev Estate will have secured a memorable treble of trophies, having also won the RSA preseason tournament earlier in the year. Dev Estate manager Kevin Barber Snr, admitted winning the title was much harder this time around. “We won every game for the first (few) rounds and we got complacent,” Barber said. “The hard thing, actually, was having a smaller squad and the fact that (Barmera United) is the only (club) in the competition that can’t use a bigger team because we’re made up of two sides.” There were many players behind Dev Estate’s charge to the summit of the RSA and Barber said every man did his bit. “Anthony Ielasi because he’s got his scoring boots on, Kyle Lehman because he’s ‘captain supreme’, Kevie (Barber Jnr) because he’s stepped
■ PREMIER: Martin Barber has been one of the stars for Barmera Dev Estate. Photo: FILE up immensely and Geordie Franks because he’s just there,” he said. “He can go anywhere, if you need a left back, right back, centre forward, Geordie Franks is your man. “We tried Anthony on the right mid and changed the style we played from last year, and he’s still leading scorer, he’s an amazing player.”
To do it back-toback with Barmera is an honour for me.
Barber said guiding Dev Estate to back-to-back premierships is his biggest honour in soccer. “Ultimately, we’re aware of what comes up in the Top Four Cup but the premiership is the bigger one,” he said. “To do it back-to-back with Barmera is an honour for me.”

Horsing about with your pet
Maintenance EVERY six to eight weeks,
a horse’s hooves should be checked and given regular care. Your pet will also need to make an annual trip to the veterinarian for a check-up and tetanus shot. Regularly make sure your horse’s stable is clean and give it plenty of exercise, a large paddock will be good for this, as it can gallop freely. Every six to eight weeks, your pet will need to be dewormed. Remember, a horse requires regular, ongoing care.
Feeding your horse IF YOUR pet is given the proper nutrients, it will grow and function normally throughout its life.
Hay is generally the main source of food for a horse, as it is rich in protein, minerals and vitamins. Other popular choices of food are corn, barley and oats but these should not be a main source of food for the pet. When a horse is fed too much corn, it can lead to unwanted weight gain as it is high in calories. Foods such as sugar beets should be seldom fed to horses, as they are known as ‘reward food’ and for horses who engage in regular activity, they will become hyperactive. Horses require plenty of water during night and day, especially after exercise.

ORSES are a difficult but rewarding pet and they require protection from all the elements. This includes wind, heat and rain and they should be have shelter at most times of the day. A stable with plenty of hay and lots of room is the best option for a horse, as they become stressed if crowded. Each stable should also be equipped with a horse trough and food. When putting them into their stables at night, make sure it is safe and they are not distressed before you leave them.

good, she’s scary�. O’Connor’s backroom staff have famous links as well. “My manager also managed Fleetwood Mac for 23 years,� she said. “He managed the band and managed Mick Fleetwood, himself. “I’m really pleased with my management and people behind the scenes.�
Obviously, b when I come on, people are shouting ‘play The Best’.
Trif’s Trivia
Just one of the reasons O’Connor loves performing is the sights she gets to see. “Basically, you get to see the whole world, you get to see everywhere,� she said. “The good thing about Australia is there’s no late shows, I
go on at eight o’clock and finish at around half 10. “(Here in Australia), I love the restaurants, the people, everybody’s so friendly and I’m from Ireland so the weather is unbelievable. “I won’t want to go back to Ireland.� Despite singing alone, O’Connor said performing was definitely not something she could do by herself. “I’m with my nine-piece band and I’ve got my backing vocalists, so I’m not lonely,� she said. Billed as a tribute act, O’Connor knows the show is more of a musical dedication to the legend that is Tina Turner. “She’s 73 now, she’s not touring anymore, so the way I’m doing it, I’m very much paying homage to Tina, rather than being a tribute act,� she said. “It’s more like a musical, all my backdrops are designed by the same people who designed Tina Turner’s stages. “I’m endorsed by Tina Turner herself and to perform as her is a dream come true.� You can catch O’Connor at the Chaffey Theatre on September 1.
