Murray River Queen to become top hostel By BRAD PERRY THE new owner of the Murray River Queen is confident the historic vessel will become one of the top three hostels in Australia. Fruit picking network company Harvest Hoppers will formally be the new

owners of the Waikerie based vessel on Monday. Harvest Hoppers director Matthew Major said the Murray River Queen will remain in Waikerie and be used as accommodation for backpackers. “We have two different markets that we’ll be servic-

ing, the first market is the international traveller on a working holiday visa who is obviously coming into the region to find some work,” he said.

Renewed optimism THERE is often talk about the empty shops and the businesses that have shut down in the Riverland. However, just maybe the economic climate is changing. Proof is with the historic vessel sold and a transport business’ purchase of a large piece of Loxton land. Both of those sales demonstrate confidence in the region with hundreds of thousands of dollars invested. The real estate agents selling the former Bowland site have also indicated that there has been good interest for a buyer. It just feels as if things are changing in the Riverland and that renewed sense of optimism is truly starting to kick in.

Memorial destruction UPON seeing the shattered glass panel of the Berri war memorial at the end of Vaughan Terrace this week, I really felt for those who had spent so much time and effort putting the memorial together. Speculation is that the panel of glass featuring artwork was vandalised and if that is the case, I find it hard to digest. Why would someone wanted to damage a memorial honouring those who risked their lives so we can be here today? If true, what a disgraceful act.

Nippy’s backpacker solution NIPPY’S is about a month away from completing work on backpacker’s accommodation at its Waikerie site. After feedback from pickers during navel orange season, Nippy’s managing director Jeff Knispel said he felt the shortage of accommodation should be addressed. As part of the company’s successful $2.6 million application to the Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund, Mr Knispel included an upgrade of an upstairs facility at the Waikerie based packing shed. The project to upgrade the facilities is costing up to $75,000 but Mr Knispel said it will encourage workers to stay in the region.

“Part of the reason we considered this was the feedback we have been getting in the past years from our backpackers and where they were staying,” he said. “It ranged from sleeping in vans to pitching tents to some more reasonable accommodation in the local caravan park. “The caravan park people were probably comfortable enough but those that were pitching tents in frosty weather or sleeping in vans would have found it difficult justifying to hang around in this area during the navel season living in those conditions.” Mr Knispel said backpackers working for Nippy’s will be given priority to the accommodation but he said the option may also

throughout, we’ve got floor coverings to go in and we’ve got to build a fire escape at one end. “We’ll prioritise those who are working there but if there is a fair capacity there, then we’ll probably look at making space available to any backpackers.”

With new owner comes new direction for historic vessel n From Page 1 “The more deluxe rooms on the top of the boat, we will be utilizing those in summer to attract tourists from Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide to the Riverland to experience all the joys of the river and the region. “Each year more than one million travellers come to Australia and predominantly they spend a lot of time going up the east coast and we just think it would be awesome if they could come to our state and to the Riverland and enjoy some of the pleasures that we have to offer.” Mr Major said the company plans to keep the Murray River Queen café open to the public. “I heard from council members and community people and the chamber of commerce that it was something that the area was fond of but unfortunately it was constantly open and then closed and it left a few people a bit dissatisfied with the service,” he said.

eateries in the region. Mr Major said he respects the history of the vessel and plans to uphold its integrity. “We would have thought that keeping it in its most original state would be respectful to the community and to previous owners of the vessel, so we don’t intend to have any bells or whistles or fluro colours or ridiculous things like that,” he said. Having the Murray River Queen as backpacker accommodation will attract many visitors to the region, according to Mr Major. “We are really, really happy with the configuration of the rooms,” he said. “With our market, most travellers have to spend a majority of their time in the country in dorm accommodation and we are very, very pleased to be able to offer, to that industry, more privacy with the couples and twin rooms that are on that boat. “We’ve been in this industry for 16 years and I personally have

The following week Mr Major said there are already more than 60 passengers booked to stay on the Murray River Queen. Waikerie Caravan Park owner Ian Edwards said he enjoyed his time with the Murray River Queen but is happy to have sold the vessel. “The boat suited our purposes as caravan park operators and it was a very enjoyable time with the boat but now it is time, as per our business plan, to move on and hand the boat over,” he said.

Fees waived and signage to be erected to help attract visitors to the region via airport

Influx of fly in tourists? IN A push to attract more tourists to the Renmark airfield, the local council is making it clear that visiting aircraft are exempt from landing fees. While tourist aircrafts were not previously charged, the newly passed landing fees for the Renmark Aerodrome during 2012/13 now clearly highlight the fact. The Renmark Paringa Council will also install signage at the terminal to inform tourists of key accommodation and service provider contacts, in addition to how they can apply to have their landing fees waived. Riverland Sport Aviation member David Campain has been flying at Renmark for more than 50 years and has backed signage for tourists. “People who are coming in to stay for a few days would be able to go the council and do something about the fees that they have been charged and I think that is a good idea,” he said. Mr Campain said continued waiving of fees for the local gliding and aviation club is also a positive move. “A lot of people think that pilots are rich but we are ordinary people,” he said. “In fact I’m a pensioner and the average person is just an ordinary worker from around the area or a local businessman. “Landing fees for the club at

“We are also going to talk to accommodation service providers about them having some signage out there. “So it might be the Renmark Hotel has signage out there that they have a courtesy bus that is willing to pick them up from the airport just to add to that extra tourism service.”

Photo: BRAD PERRY Renmark haven’t been a problem in the past as we pay rental on the hanger site.” Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour said fees for a scheduled passenger and all other aircraft have risen from $6.25 in 2011/12 to $10 in 2012/13. “It is still an increase from what we currently charge but in terms of sealed runways in South Australia, we were the cheapest, so we have increased those,” he said. “What we have included in any fees and charges is that for

any tourist aircraft under 2000 kilograms there will be no charge. “For the gliding club I think it is important for them to continue as a group that they are not charged and obviously we want our airport to be promoted as being friendly for tourist landings.” Mr Siviour said highlighting the fact there is no charge for tourists flying into the region could be a bonus. “We just hope that the word gets out that if you are on a tourist venture then you can land at Renmark free of charge,” he said.

THE Renmark Paringa Council has obtained costings for major upgrades to the Renmark airport to accommodate more services. Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour was unable to reveal the costings as they have not yet gone to council. “We have had the costings done for upgrading our airport to a greater standard, however that hasn’t gone to council yet,” he said. “We are still looking at opportunities, not so much around the fly in/fly out, but other opportunities at the airport. “We are working with the RDA on pursuing other avenues for better usage for our airport and the fly in/fly out, it’s really a matter of having all the information available if there is a company or an airline that wants to come and discuss it any further with council.”

Vietnam veterans gutted after memorial damage THE Riverland Vietnam Veteran’s Association is likely to be without a glass panel of the Berri war memorial for its upcoming annual event after it was found shattered yesterday. Riverland Vietnam Veteran’s Association president Roger Nettle said he was “mortified” to see the shattered glass panel of the memorial. “It’s something we take a great deal of pride in, not only the Riverland Vietnam Veterans, it was also the wider community that had a colossal amount of input into it,” he said. “Because it is so unique and so different honouring all conflicts since post World War II, it’s just entirely different from most memorials and we get feedback from not only the veteran community but the community in general throughout Australia. “We’ve got our Vietnam Veteran’s Day coming up with a ceremony on August 18, so that’s

not far away and I can’t imagine we’d have any chance of having it back in ship-shape (condition) prior to that. “Our group will be absolutely horrified to think this has happened.” While there was speculation the damage was an act of vandalism, nothing has been confirmed. “It is no good jumping to conclusions about how or why it happened,” Mr Nettle said. “I’m just terribly disappointed and if it is an act by a human it really is showing a colossal amount of disrespect for not only society but the veterans community and wider community in general.” Mr Nettle said he hoped insurance would cover the damage. “It is not going to be a simple task to fix but insurance will probably cover it,” he said. “We were told when it was developed that it was almost un-

THE Moorook riverfront will be given a $140,000 upgrade after the local council was successful for funding through the State Government’s Boating Facility Advisory Committee earlier this month. The $70,000 in funding will be matched by the Loxton Waikerie Council and will go towards upgrading boating and recreational facilities along the Moorook riverfront. As part of the project, there will be remediation of the existing river bank with improved access to provide safe, fit for purpose ski facilities and improved launching and retrieval facilities for boats. A floating pontoon system will also be added as well as up-

grades of the carpark to accommodate for all types of vehicles. Loxton Waikerie Council chief executive officer Peter Ackland said the project is part of the Moorook riverfront strategic development master plan.

we are proposing to install a recreational vehicle or motorhome dump point because there has been a number of those larger vehicles using that area,” he said. “We are proposing to try and put some more facilities into that general vicinity such as this recreation boating facility but also the

dump point to try and encourage more people to use it and those that do use it to have the facilities they need. “The council believes there is an increasing opportunity for more people to use it along the lines of the motorhome community.” Work is expected to begin on the riverfront project when the River Murray water levels drop. “The start date will be determined by when the river recedes back to pool level,” Mr Ackland said. “The latest flow advice is talking about it staying up until some time in October, so we will wait until we get back down to pool level because we need to get below the current level to do those kind of works.”

THE State Government is yet to decide on the future of the Lyrup Primary School building and surrounding premises after last month’s decision by the governing council to close the school at the end of the year. South Australian Education Minister Grace Portolesi said the school facility could be potentially offered to the local council or be put on the real estate market. “If a site is considered surplus to the needs of the department, these sites are offered in the first instance to other government agencies and to the local council, and then offered for sale to the open market,” she said. “This is in accordance with the standard government process for surplus land disposal.” Minister Portolesi said schools do not close based on enrolments despite Lyrup Primary School having just five children in its final year. “There are a number of small schools operating around the

state and the decision to close or remain open is one for the community,” she said. “In this case the Lyrup Primary School community has decided to close. “Permanent teachers will be placed in an alternative school and all staff will have their contracts honoured.” Lyrup Primary School principal John Trobbiani said there was a sense of inevitability about the decision to close the school. “The actual decision for the

people that were still involved to make that, we did feel some responsibility on behalf of everybody who had been here before and the future of the school as part of the community but we were always deciding on the best interests of the kids and that’s the biggest concern,” he said. “A lot of people are interested to see what is going to happen to the school grounds and the facility. “People are showing some concern or some interest about

where the kids are going and also the futures of the staff that are here. “We are working now to liaise with the schools that will be the school of choice by the students so those transitions happen as smoothly as they can and they feel part of the school that these students join.” Mr Trobbiani said having a small number of students has meant one-on-one education. “While the school was getting smaller there was still a close relationship between students and teachers and we were well placed to cater for kids individually,” he said. “The kids did relate really closely with each other and the staff.” It is understood the Renmark Paringa Council has discussed the future of the Lyrup Primary School facility but chief executive officer Tony Siviour said there has been no correspondence from the State Government about the matter.

INVITATION TO ATTEND A PUBLIC CONSULTATION SESSION ABOUT THE FAMILY AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM REFORM

MURRAY Zircon’s plan to build a 50-person accommodation site at Wanbi for Mindarie Mine workers has been shelved due to issues with power accessibility. Mindarie spokesman Steve McEwen said building a facility closer to the mine is currently being investigated. “We were looking at it (Wanbi Oval) but the infrastructure to do with power (was a problem),” he said. “We are looking at putting it closer to our own power station which is on site, so we are looking at putting some accommodation in there.” Mr McEwen said the previ-

ous employer at the mine took people in and out via buses but he said requirements have changed meaning accommodation is now vital. “Things have moved on since then in terms of industry requirements,” he said. “They are coming off 12 hour shifts and they certainly can’t drive. “It just means that we need to consider it and that is why we are looking to put a camp in place.” Karoonda East Murray Council chief executive officer Peter Smithson expressed disappointment about Wanbi no longer being chosen as a site for the accommodation.

“It is fair to say that I am (disappointed) but for us, the major thing is that it is recommencing, so that’s a plus not only for us but also for the region,” he said. “It came as a bit of a surprise because they had gone through the whole process of putting in a development application, putting that out to public consultation and obviously somewhere along the line they did the numbers and realised it was an expensive exercise.” Overburden removal at the Mindarie Mine is expected to begin in September and the ore processing could start as early as mid October.

HEAVY rainfall in the past two weeks has Riverland and Mallee dryland farmers preparing for what is expected to be an above average season. Alawoona farmer Neville Singh said the soil profile is already wet meaning he is not relying on further rains. “We didn’t have as much rain as a lot of people, around 20 millimetres, but it has been ideal,” he said. “Now that we’ve had this much rain we’re probably right for about four weeks. “Every farmer hopes for a bumper year and

good prices but last year the yields weren’t too bad but the prices were no good. “If we can get an average to an above average year we might even have a chance to make some money for a change.” BullaBurra, which has seeded 24,000 acres from Loxton into the Mallee this season, has also ben-

efited from recent rains. Farm manager Andrew Biele said the weather has provided a great start to the season. “The way the season started, the rains we had in the summer were the good rains that got us through to where we are now,” he said. “The good rains that have come over the past couple of weeks have been so crucially timely. “We still will need some rain a bit later on and in about another four weeks’ time another burst of rain would be great. “There’s plenty of water in the ground, the rain

we’ve just had through has filled the profile nicely.” There are still a number of challenges including pests and diseases, according to Mr Biele. “With this sort of weather, moisture in the ground and also warm days, things just grow, so we are just trying to slow up the unwanted (pests and disease),” he said. “We need the winds to stay away and one of our threats now will be frost.” Mr Biele said rabbits are a continuing problem. “They are quite active in the reproduction side of things at the moment,” he said.

Business expands â&#x2013; NEW LAND: Hentschke Transport has purchased new land in Loxton to enhance operational and logistical efficiences. (Left) Hentschke Transport partner Dennis Hentschke.

A LOCAL transport company has revealed plans to expand following the purchase of a large parcel of land in Loxton. As of Tuesday, Hentschke Transport owns the piece of land known as the old railway station yard off Bookpurnong Terrace after purchasing the property for an undisclosed amount. Hentschke Transport partner Dennis Hentschke said the land will free up space for the expanding business.

He said the area will be used to relocate some parking for loaded trailers, as well as refuelling and truck washing facilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are hoping that the extra parking for loaded trailers, especially B-Doubles, will reduce some of the congestion at our depot, especially on the service road,â&#x20AC;? Mr Hentschke said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will also be looking to relocate admin to the offices on the site.â&#x20AC;? Mr Hentschke said devel-

opment options are currently being explored for the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this stage we have got a planner looking at the development of the site and putting proposals to council,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For us it basically gives us more space initially and takes the congestion off of our workshop and depot area which will really give us the opportunity to continue growing our business.â&#x20AC;? Mr Hentschke said the purchase is part of an overall ex-

pansion but he said the main business will still operate from the current facility on Bookpurnong Road. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is quite a commitment from our point of view and shows our confidence in the region and in our staff, in our customers and what we do for them,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be keen to look at how we can fully develop and utilise the site and that will happen over the next few months.â&#x20AC;?

Berri Barmera Council raises questions over $20 million Futures Fund jobs in the Berri Barmera Council area despite Berri losing hundreds of jobs when National Foods and Fletchers Freighters closed. Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said there has been feedback from community members in the area that a number of applications to the fund have been denied. During last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

council meeting, the issue was raised about the fundingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inability to create jobs in the area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There has been an amount of money that has been allocated, about $9 million or $10 million, and the amount that has come into this council area has been for a JMA proposal and Foodbank,â&#x20AC;? Mr Beaton said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very hard because when National Foods went, Fletchers followed behind them, so taking that many jobs out of the community makes it very difficult. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know of some applications that have been made that havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been successful, so it would be good if there was some more of that money coming to our area.â&#x20AC;?

Renmark Hotel Board chairman Randell McClure said obtaining futures funding would have been a great boost for the project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will push on using our own resources but it was a little bit disappointing,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ultimate sale (of the Tower Tavern) may help to achieve some of those upgrades we were looking at.â&#x20AC;?

Hotel plans could be answ to accommodation shorta By BRAD PERRY AN unused floor of the Renmark Hotel may be the answer to the Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shortage of top end accommodation with potential for the area to be upgraded.

ACCESS to funding for major upgrades at the Renmark Hotel has been denied following two applications to the $20 million Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund recently. The hotel was not shortlisted as part of the funding with plans to upgrade existing accommodation and put in new units across two floors. It is understood the hotel motel board will discuss whether there are any other funding avenues and what part of the plans it can go forward with at its next meeting.

Report shows optimism in future AN in-depth report has highlighted a growing number of opportunities going forward for the Murraylands and Riverland area. Prepared by the SA Centre for Economic Studies for the SA Local Government Association, executive director professor Michael O'Neil said the Murraylands and Riverland area will have some of the strongest population growth in South Australia. With a high number of apprenticeships being 594 in training as of November last year, Prof O'Neil said there is more and more opportunities for study. He said that there could even be demand for a regional university based in Murray Bridge by 2017. “I notice that the region now is moving significantly back into

diversification of its agricultural output, looking to strengthen its food bowl reputation and tourism and so on,” he said. “We are going to potentially see a demand for a regional university in Murray Bridge in time to come. “That’s one of the things we have stressed, improving secondary education in the region and encouraging people to then go on into vocational training or then go on and improve their skills and qualifications perhaps through some university training. “The region is diversifying its economy off an extremely strong agricultural but even now a stronger horticultural base, so that there is also a lot of value adding in food processing. “Here are a lot of opportunities for young people who are

developing vocational education in agriculture and horticulture and also in the service economy for tourism and for health services.” The report states that addressing literacy and numeracy for all, including migrants, adults and school students, is a critical challenge. Prof O'Neil said there is potential growth in agriculture, horticulture, tourism and eco-tourism and a demand for skilled labour into the future. “It (Murraylands and Riverland) is going to have some of the strongest population growth in South Australia over the next 10 to 15 years and it does have the capacity with proper land use and it does have water available,” he said. “It really has a very bright outlook.”

RDGP supports new Medicare Local THE Riverland Division of General Practice has re-emphasised its position to be part of the newly introduced Medicare Local structure. The Federal Government initiative is aimed at achieveing better co-ordinated and more easily accessible primary health care services in regional areas. Country South SA Medicare Local officially formed at the beginning of the month and a Medicare Local aims to support primary care service in the Riverland, Limestone Coast and Murray Mallee. Medicare Local acting chairwoman Kathy Mott said the body has been working with local health organisations. “We are working closely with the local service delivery organisations, so the Riverland Division of General Practice and the Murray Mallee GP Network,” she said. “The funding for many of the services like mental health services and indigenous health services…all those contracts are actually coming over to the Medicare Local and have done so formally as of July 1. “In the interest of service continuity, we have been working with the local divisions to make sure they continue to run those services for us in the short term and it will be business as usual for the local community.” Ms Mott said the board has only been in place for five weeks and there is still much to be done. “A lot of our work is really about how can we focus in on quality as well as access to services and particularly that is an issue for country folk in terms of, you don’t have access to diversity and as many services,” she said. “That is going to be another major part of what we do is talking with local people about their needs, their issues, what they want to have in place in their local communities and then we’ll be doing our best to see what we can deliver.”

Hope for new aquatic club facility at Loxton within 12 months THE Loxton Waikerie Council is hopeful of establishing a new aquatic club facility in Loxton within 12 months. Since 2006, the Loxton Aquatic Club has been planning to relocate from its facility currently near the boat ramp on the riverfront and build a new clubroom. Council met with the Loxton Aquatic Club on Friday and arranged a regular meeting schedule to “keep this project moving”. Loxton Waikerie Council chief executive officer Peter Ackland said the project pushing forward will depend on state government planning approval. “They’ve given us a general idea of what they are looking for and we have just now asked them to finalise how that might look, whether there is toilets included or not, all those kind of things,” Mr Ackland said. “We are going to meet on a regular basis to ensure we are going to move this along as quickly as we possibly can. “It really is going to be dependent on the planning aspect of it all and that is outside of our control. “We would hope within 12 months given that they are moving into their ski season now and they’re planning to build this with a lot of their own volunteer effort as well.” Mr Ackland said a new facility would provide more safety for the club and its members. “The reason they are looking to do this is where their current facility is, there are issues they are trying to avoid where people may be launching or retrieving boats and people are skiing past all that,” he said. “So we are looking to try and create a safer area away from the boat ramp for them. “That (existing) facility is more and more being used by tourists and people that visit our town because it is close to the boat ramp and the aquatic club people are looking for a place where they can have their members come. “They came with the proposal to work with the council to try and establish that further down the river towards where the Lions Park car park is. “They’re essentially looking at a Colorbond shed type construction, so it will blend in with the environment. “It won’t be a huge structure, it’s something along the lines that you will see in other towns like Berri down at Martins Bend.” A spokesperson from the Loxton Aquatic Club said it is too early to comment on the project.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Wage concerns? WE NEED to know who is critiquing the present political landscape in the media. I was interested to Google one particular organisation (whose fellows or representatives were interviewed on ABC’s The Drum) from The Institute of Public Affairs. I was so concerned at some of what I read on their website that I emailed one person from that organisation explained my concerns and suggest that person was very right wing. The person responded by stating they were offended by that term and considered themselves a classical Liberal. I did apologise as I did not intend to offend but was astounded as I read the email further. I had written that unions had the right to get the best profit for the workers’ labour, my inference being just like business required a reasonable profit, so does ordinary working people. The answer to that comment from this person from The Institute of Public Affairs was: ‘By subverting democratic processes through, say, the invention of the Australian Labor Party? By using the political puppet of the ALP to invoke, for example, mandatory minimum wages that leave hundreds of thousands of your compatriots unemployed? I am concerned. What is the alternative plan that this wave of conservative or ‘classic Liberals’ would put forward. Does anyone out there really feel that the minimum wage of $606.40 per 38 hour week before tax is so over the top? I ask again, all political parties are committed to globalisation and it appears we cannot compete against countries that have low wages, minimum safe guards for workers, if any, and, I am sure, no unions to collectively protect them from exploitation. What do our political parties representatives local and federal and of all ideologies say? Do they concur with the idea that the mandatory minimum wage is no longer appropriate or that our current wages and penalties are about to be reduced or penalties removed? Marg Moir, Berri.

Rainbow Connection will remain FOLLOWING the Riverland Weekly article Lost Connection? on

Thursday, July 12, I wish to make the following clarifications. Country Health SA (CHSA) provided initial funding to the One Voice Network (OVN) for two years, to assist the organisation in establishing themselves and secure financial support from other areas of the Federal and/or nongovernment sector. This CHSA funding was never intended to be an ongoing arrangement and this was agreed to by OVN from the beginning. OVN was to use the initial two year funding to establish their business practices and source alternative financial options, such as grants and other external funding. CHSA met with OVN on numerous occasions to discuss funding and support options and extended the funding agreement twice in a gesture of good faith. OVN was not successful in securing alternate funding during the original two year period, nor during the subsequent six month and three month funding extensions. It was communicated to OVN in November, 2011, that no further extensions would be granted beyond March 2012 and CHSA offered letters of reference to support new grant applications. The decision will have no effect on the Riverland Mental Health Service. The Rainbow Connection is a Mental Health Activity Resource Centre which offers a range of social activities for mental health consumers and carers. The local Riverland Mental Health Service team provides support to the Rainbow Connection and this will continue regardless of OVN’s involvement. CHSA continues to significantly invest in mental health services in country South Australia through the Intermediate Care Centres, Community Rehabilitation Centres, Limited Treatment Centres and the new Digital Telehealth Network.

Join the river fight DESPITE the rain over the past two years, the River Murray is still suffering from the effects of the recent drought and from years of over extraction upstream. Parts of the river still have salinity problems, we’re still experiencing problems associated with acidification in the Lower Lakes and Lower Murray regions

Holden Colorado’s very safe

and many wetlands haven’t recovered. The latest Murray Darling Basin Plan sells us short and simply does not return enough water to the river. Internationally recognised wetlands – including the Coorong, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth and the RiverlandChowilla floodplain remain under threat. We have no choice. We must fight this plan. That’s why I’ve launched the Fight for the Murray Campaign. The State Government has pledged $2 million to campaign for a better plan – one that will return the river system to health. A healthy River Murray is crucial for the future of the whole country, not just South Australia. Many livelihoods and much of our precious natural environment depend on it. If we are going to be the generation who can look our children in the eye and say we did all we could to save the river, we must step up our efforts. Please join the campaign at www.fightfortheriver.com.au. Together we can win the fight for the long-term health of the river for the benefit of all Australians.

‘Murdered’ cats? I AM very saddened to read other people have lost their beloved pet cats. My cats disappeared and I believe they were ‘murdered’. I have never had children or grandchildren and my cats were my babies. One thing I have learnt is a very big lesson in who you can trust. Can you trust your neighbours? Now my cats are inside all the time. They are safe from humans, cars, snakes and cat fights. I agree with Gavin (Why and how do pets become lost? Julyl 12) that you need to be a responsible pet owner. If you decided to keep your cat inside

and only have one cat, you may need another cat to keep the other company. When you are not home put the radio on and have toys for them to play with. To Veronica (Stray cats in Renmark North, July 5), I know stray cats can be a problem but don’t forget they are starving, scared and have been abondoned. Over the years, my husband and myself have rescued nearly 40 cats and kittens. We have taken most of them to the Moorook Animal Shelter and some we keep for ourselves. But we paid for all their desexing. Lola was good enough to take them and is not made of money, nor are we but once the cats are desexed they have a better chance of finding a home. If you talk to Lola and are willing to help her out, I’m sure she will do the same for you. To the fur trade, yes it is happening. It has been on television, in the papers and magazines. Apparently they are blending the furs together so you don’t know if it is cat, dog, bear etc. Also false labels like faux fur are prominent. Be careful when you buy fur handbags, purses, scarves, clothing, shoes etc. If you think you look good wearing fur, spare a thought for the animal that died. Some are hung up to die slowly and others are skinned alive. Even top models refuse to wear fur. Martina Roberts, Loxton.

THE all-new Colorado crew cab range has become the latest Holden to be awarded a maximum five-star safety rating from the Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP). Launched last month, the new light commercial vehicle has a comprehensive list of active and passive safety features including Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD), driver and front passenger airbags and full length curtain airbags standard across the range. Colorado benefits from a robust frame and body structure is constructed from high-strength steel and has a technically advanced chassis system which delivers enhanced accident avoidance capabilities. Full length side impact protection beams reinforce the passenger safety cell and offers optimum protection in the event of a collision. Holden’s executive director of sales, marketing and aftersales John Elsworth said the crew cab range accounted for approximately 80 per cent of Colorado sales therefore it was great to get this important third party endorsement for this popular range. “Today’s LCVs serve a dual purpose - they are a weekday work horse but often perform the duties of an SUV at the weekend so it was imperative that Colorado included increased standard passenger comfort and safety,” Mr Elsworth said. “Colorado has earned a welldeserved reputation as a hardworking, solid, safe and reliable light commercial vehicle and this announcement will further enhance that status. ANCAP chairman Lauchlan McIntosh congratulated Holden on the stellar achievement and said it was satisfying to see manufacturers lifting the safety of light commercial vehicles.

‘STRIKING’ OPPORTUNITY! EOI - FOR SALE

Eyes on the street as crime drops NEIGHBOURHOOD Watch Riverland area coordinator Lynette Nitschke believes the community keeping a close eye on local towns has contributed to the decrease in crime. Recently released figures by the Office of Crime Statistics and Research (OCSAR) show offences recorded by police dropping from 2006 to 2010 across the Riverland and Mallee. Between the five year period, offences recorded by police in the Loxton Waikerie area fell from 1320 in 2006 to 1020 by 2010. Renmark Paringa’s offences dropped from 1488 in 2006 to 1180 in 2010 and Berri Barmera decreased significantly from 2048 in 2006 to 1684 in 2010. In the Mallee, offences in the Karoonda East Murray Council area dropped to 42

■ Crime offences in the region from 2006 to 2010 dropped. in 2010 from 61 in 2006. The Southern Mallee District Council area was the only one to rise with 198 offences in 2010, up from 142 in 2006. Of offences per 1000 population, Loxton Waikerie recorded the lowest with 84.49, Renmark Paringa had 119.23 and Berri Barmera was at 149.42. Mrs Nitschke said the

drop in crime means the message is getting out to the community. “It means we are happy that perhaps some of the messages we are trying to get out there are getting through to people,” she said. “We keep promoting all of the safety issues whether it’s to do with driving or locking your house or your car or being careful on the internet. “We are a good Neighbourhood Watch area where people do notice what’s around them and if they see anything unusual they often report it to the police which helps them to solve the crimes. “Police do an excellent job and we are very lucky in the Riverland where the police do work with the people and do really work hard to keep our area safe.”

Small business, big risks

By AMP Financial Planner Danny Kearney*

ITH business and personal debts to their name, small business owners have a lot of reasons to protect themselves financially. So why do so many ignore the risks? When you’re a small business owner, you pour your heart and soul into your business. And why wouldn’t you – it’s yours! But what many small business owners fail to think about is the vulnerability of their financial situation. n important: Small businesses are taking big risks Having so much at stake, when it comes to insurance when the solution is both emotionally and financially, easier and more affordable than many think. might be great for motivation. But it’s not so great if something happens to you and you Country Investment & can’t work. And it can be even more devInsuranCe servICes P/L* astating if you’ve got a family depending on you.

According to a 2006 survey by the Investment and Financial Services Council (FSC), less than half of small business owners feel they have adequate cover. So if they know they’re not properly covered, why aren’t they doing something about it? One of the reasons is that there’s a perception insurance is too expensive. But think about the sort of money you’d lose if you couldn’t work for a few months. Or worse, if you could never work again. It certainly helps put the cost of insurance into perspective. It could even reduce your tax bill.

Income protection insurance is one of the most relevant types of cover for everyone, including small business owners. It can replace up to 80 per cent of your income if you can’t work because of sickness or injury. In the FSC survey, 95 per cent of small business owners said they were aware of what income protection was but 56 per cent thought it was too expensive. So cost is obviously a big reason for the lack of protection. But the fact 47 per cent of respondents did not know that income protection premiums were tax-deductible shows there’s a lack of understanding around how much insurance actually costs. Business expenses insurance – which covers your fixed business expenses like rent, electricity and non-income producing staff wages if you can’t work because of sickness or injury – is also taxdeductible. So by combining these two types of policies you can cover your work and personal expenses. And potentially reduce your tax bill.

How much does it actually cost? Let’s take the example of a 37-year-old male plumber who earns $80,000 per annum. He takes out: An income protection policy to cover 75 per cent of his income (or $5000 per month), and; A business expenses policy to cover $5000 per month of fixed business expenses. His total premium before tax

is $4017. But because his premiums are tax-deductible, his after-tax premium reduces by 41.5 per cent (his marginal tax rate) to $2350. At about $45 per week, that’s the equivalent of a take-away pizza and a six-pack of beer each week.

How much does it actually cost? Let’s take the example of a 39-year-old male doctor who earns $120,000 per annum. He takes out: An income protection policy to cover 75 per cent of his income (or $7500 per month) and; A business expenses policy to cover $10,000 per month of fixed business expenses. His total premium before tax is $2660. But because his premiums are tax-deductible, his aftertax premium reduces by 41.5 per cent (his marginal tax rate) to $1556. At about $30 per week, that’s the equivalent of a take-away pizza each week.

Get the cover you need

The best way to find out what cover you need is to speak to a financial adviser. They can help you get the right cover and make sure it’s structured in a way that makes it as cost-effective as possible. Everyone needs insurance. But few people need it more than small business owners. So make it your business to get the advice and the cover you need.

â&#x2013; AWARD: On behalf of the Promethean Centre of Excellence Jim Smith and Lindsey Gilmore presented Loxton Primary School principal Paul Rowe (centre) with the Promethean Centre of Excellence Award recently. Photo: BRAD PERRY LOXTON Primary school was recently awarded the Promethean Centre of Excellence accreditation eclipsing 300 other schools in South Australia. Promethean manufactures items that help with interactive learning, such as electronic whiteboards. Loxton Primary School pricipal Paul Rowe said he was impressed by the achievement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve recognised the work of staff and students with our electronic whiteboards,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whiteboards open up whole new dimensions

â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the new products is called active view and if I use baking as an example, if someone is mixing in a bowl then the active view allows the students to see inside the bowl, using a camera on a flexible arm, while the mixture is being mixed.â&#x20AC;? Some of the other products received include 32 active voters, which are game show style keypads which allow the students to have gameshow style lessons. Also for the younger students, the school received an extended wand which allows small students to reach the whiteboard.

Loxton performs The Sound of Music

Helping eye sight problems

The grid is printed on a card with a magnet on the back. It is recommended that it be placed on the fridge and used regularly to test eye sight. The Amsler Grid is used as a means of early detection of Macular Degeneration where people can regularly monitor their eye sight in their own home. This project has been funded by the Rotary Club of Yea in Victoria.

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND THIRTEEN MATCH OF THE ROUND

Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well v Paringa LAST time these two teams met, Paringa won the contest by 137 points. This time around it is expected the result will be much closer. The Bombers have been on the improve since losing their first seven games and will be hunting their fifth consecutive victory. While the Swans lost their first match of the season to BSR, they have since regained top spot. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well is coming off the bye and will have fresh legs. Ash Smith, Callan Wall and Craig Patterson all return, while Matt Cridland has played his last

match for the year and Digby McNeil is unavailable. The Bombers are hopeful of including James Fiegert in the team for his second game of the season after he booted 10 goals against Moorook-Kingston. Last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Duthie Medal winner Andrew Lloyd will be out with a leg injury, while in-form defender come forward Mick Miller will not play due to a hamstring injury for the Swans. Nick Carr, who has been away, adds pace with his inclusion. It should be an interesting affair in the centre of the ground with Chris Gardner against Jock McNeil and Tristan Jackson potentially on Geordie Franks. Jono Wood has been dangerous

THE OTHER GAMES on the wing and Pat Flavel may get the job on Dean Hill in attack. Admitting the Bombers have a challenging task to reach finals, coach Lance Degenhardt has faith in his team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a pretty tough pathway to the finals,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the bye might help us a bit to regain our momentum.â&#x20AC;? Paringa coach Arrod Westley said this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s match is not going to be easy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not coming in expecting a 20 goal win,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be really pressuring the ball coming through the centre.â&#x20AC;? The Swans have been playing strong team football and we are tipping them to win by around eight goals.

East Murray v Cobdogla THE equation is simple for East Murray. If the Tigers cannot beat Cobdogla this round, any chance of finals is out of the question. On the other hand, a win for Cobdogla would mean it is more than likely to finish fourth. For East Murray, key player Chris Rudiger pulled up sore last round but is still likely to play. The Eagles will be without Adam Barnett, Mitch Winen, Tom De Jager and Shaun Matthews but will include Craig Aitken and Zac Walker. The midfield battles will be important with Josh Wiseman, Tyson Maynard and Josh Watkins against Rudiger, Ash Hissey and Zak Schubert. Young Zac Schubert has been a goal sneak and along with Jason Berger, will need to kick bags if the Tigers are going to be a chance. The experienced Troy Dawson and Ryan Pietrolaj are targets up forward for the Eagles. Cobdogla coach Brad Gillespie said it will be tough travelling to East Murray. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we are going to make the finals weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to think more about what we are doing rather than the opposition,â&#x20AC;? he said. East Murray could cause an upset in this clash on its home turf.

THE OTHER GAMES

Lyrup v BSR EVERY match from now on iis crucial for Lyrup as it fights for a finals spot. A loss to Blanchetown/Swan Reach would possibly put it three games behind Cobdogla in fourth position. The Redbacks will be looking for a big win to regain the percentage it lost from a shock defeat at the hands of Ramco. The only injury concern for both teams is Lyrup forward Nathan Gregory who wlil be tested at train-

ing before he is right to play. The Lions lost an opportunity last round when they conceded nine last quarter goals after leading against Ramco. Jason Marrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s situation with work changed and he is no longer away for the two weeks initially thought. Along with Ken Karpany, Tom Smith and Simon Sumner, Marr has been the play maker. However, the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; midfield face a tough task against Dale Payne, Troy Cowland and Jamie Tanner. The Martinson brothers Max and Jed are dangerous in attack. Tagger Michael Zadow has been

succesful in chasing Marr previously and should get the role again. Lyrup coach Shane Healy said a win is a must. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are playing a top side but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d hope to win, you never know,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we can get this win and win the last three games we can snare fourth spot.â&#x20AC;? BSR coach Peter Zadow said a recent loss woke his players up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The boys now know they are not indestructible,â&#x20AC;? he said. It will not be easy at Lyrup but BSR should win by at least eight goals.

MoorookKingston v Ramco CHASING a top two finish and well behind on percentage, Ramco will be looking for a convincing victory over Moorook-Kinston. The Warriors were competitive last round leading at quarter time and going down to Cobdogla by 30 points. Moorook-Kingston coach Cecil Rigney is expecting another full team this round. He even had a number of rugby players filling numbers with good effect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The guys knitted together well and were all out to prove a point,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be more than competitive.â&#x20AC;? Joe Abdulla will strengthen the defence with his return, while Nathan Klingberg is out. Ash Boatswain enjoyed being back in the team and he has a tough duel against Ramco big man Jamie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Callaghan. Brett Smith and Max Baddack will go head to head. Abdulla could take Brad Gay. Ramco has been very impressive this season and should win by 12 goals.

MALLEE FOOTBALL LEAGUE MATCH OF THE ROUND

Karoonda v Lameroo BOTH teams are coming off wins last round and will be looking to make it two in a row. Still chasing top spot, Karoonda is two wins clear of Lameroo. The Magpies should welcome back 35 goal forward Luke Hocking, although Corey Knight has been a fo-

SEPARATED only by percentage, this will be a season defining game with the winner likely to play finals. Murrayville and Peake have both been inconsistent with just the three wins to date. The Bulldogs went down

to Lameroo after a tight contest last round, while Peake took it up to BDT. This contest could be a shoot-out with Trent Sporn and league leading goalkicker Daniel Fry up one end for Murrayville and Scott Feltus in attack for Peake. There is also a chance that Drew Crane may return this round for the Bulldogs. In the middle, Michael

Worsman and Nick Rees have been good with Jesse Vass, Brad Wyatt and Nick Noblett likely to take Fry and Sporn. Peake will be looking to Pat Casey, who is starting to find some form, along with Lachlan Wilson and Rick Berling. Murrayville can snatch a win and give itself a one game lead in the race for the all important fourth position.

Gratez, Brodie Chinner and Daniel Thiele. For Lameroo, Shane Agelis has been the main target up forward. He could be matched up by Graetz.

cal point in attack. Knight, Ben Quinn, Zakk Bullard, Mark Corrie and Stephen Krezos will battle with the Lameroo midfield made up of Shaun Walker, Andrew Purchase, Hayden Thorpe and Josh Ridgway. Magpie spearheads Nick Zander and Josh Rudiger will be ones to watch. The strength from Karoonda comes from its rebounding defence featuring Andrew Smithson, Jarred

THE loss of Josh Keller and Josh Richardson has certainly tested the depth of Border Downs Tintinara. However, the likes of Patrick Barrett, who snuck forward to kick goals on the weekend, has helped to cover the losses. Pinnaroo has been competitive over the past month. Thomas Keogh was sen-

sational last round but will return to West Adelaide this weekend. Tyron Bennetts and Alex Keough will take on Lachlan and Clint Richardson. The ruck contest in this match could be crucial with Hayden Schilling against Chad Nickolls. Wade Nickolls has also been handy for Pinnaroo in filling the hole in a defence which has been under immense pressure. BDT has a long list of goalkickers rather than rely-

ing on a few and Ty McKenna and Kevin Kock have presented well, along with Mark Vandeleur and Brett Todd. Chris Gregory coud match up on Anthony Lippis, who is still trying to make his mark on Mallee football. Chris Hughes and Leith Dabinett may line-up on Kock and McKenna. While BDT has lost some key players, the Crows are known for the will to fight against the odds and should win easily.

? Did you know..?

Loxton North v Waikerie HOW much has changed since the two teams met in the 2011 grand final? That day the Panthers were victors but this season the Magpies have four extra wins. However, Loxton North is beginning to show glimpses of last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s premiership winning form. While Waikerie is arguably the inform team of the competition, this contest could go down to the wire. Both teams will be without key players with the Panthers losing ruckman Ben Miller for the round, while Steven Braun is playing state country football and Matt Underwood is unavailable for Waikerie. The Magpies will welcome back Craig Miller from a trek along the Kokoda Trail and Loxton North is likely to elevate Scott Golding to take ruck duties. Opposition coaches continue to be wary of Loxton Northâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard working midfield, despite best and fairest winner Dan Proud still on the sidelines. Jamie Ferguson, Ryan Proud and Michael Scott have all been in outstanding touch. They will contest against the likes of Damian Stevens, Michael Bratton and Joseph Haines for Waikerie. Waikerieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s move of Ben Venning to deep in the attacking goal square ap-

pears to have paid off. He should attract the attention of arguably Loxton Northâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defender in Anton Cook. Andrew Bachmann has also been vital at centre half forward and he will be an interesting challenge for Josh Voigt. Tim Roberts has been an important inclusion since his return from injury for the Panthers across half forward. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said he has been happy with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past three rounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a bit more settled in the team line-up,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To get a win against Waikerie would just put us a little bit further in front of Renmark and Loxton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big test but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be up for it.â&#x20AC;? Venningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s move up forward has been important to the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s set-up, according to Waikerie co-coach Craig Griffiths. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s becoming a real focal point,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Against Loxton North, if we allow their running style of play, then we will be in trouble.â&#x20AC;? While Braun will be a big loss this round, Griffiths said he fully deserves his selection in the state country team. Waikerie should come out on top in a very close match.

BarmeraMonash v Renmark RENMARK is now just half a win away from fourth position after the weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thrilling draw with Berri. Barmera-Monash will be hoping to maintain momentum leading into one of its most important finals campaigns in two decades. The Rovers will be buoyed by the news that captain Trevor Thorpe does not require surgery to his thumb and is instead likely to face four to six weeks on the sidelines. Chris Bonney will head back to West Adelaide, while Jake Smith is a hopeful inclusion for the Roos. Young Josh Warnock has been in scintillating form on the wing, while Matt Camplin is finding his feet again. Lachlan Middleton may run with Warnock in a test of speed. Nick

Gallard is likely to shut down ball magnet Michael Smart. Roversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defender Russell Menz will need to watch Mal Greenwood closely. After being held goalless in the past two rounds, Marc Elliott would be hoping to regain some touch this round. Aaron Manning or even Dillon Millard will need to be right on the heels of big forward Craig Seekamp. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said he is hoping his charges can beat a team above it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to snare one of these, we need to get a big scalp,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on, playing harder football.â&#x20AC;? All of the teams are giving their best to beat the top side, according to Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all got a bit more to play for,â&#x20AC;? he said. He said the team continues to train three nights per week. The Roos should win by six goals.

All of the Riverland and Mallee football news, views and rumours THERE has been plenty of discussion about umpiring following some reportedly heavy criticism by players on the field on the weekend. RUMOUR is that star goalkicker Drew Crane, who decided not to play this season, may return to Murrayville in Mallee football.

RENMARKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S premiership reunion was a major success and four out of the five grades also got a win against Berri. The A grade drew its match. GOOD luck to the state country team which includes Steven Braun and potentially Leigh Kruger as runner.

â&#x2013; STARS: The Renmark Rovers who played in the West Adelaide under 15 country team which lost the grand final by 14 points last week. Eighteen out of the 25 players in the squad were from the Riverland.

THE OTHER GAMES

Berri v Loxton

84/.

A KEENLY contested rivalry between Berri and Loxton will again be on show this round and there is much to play for. The Tigers remain stuck on the bottom of the ladder. A win would not only give them a chance at a finals berth but would also mean they would miss the wooden spoon. For the Demons, a horrid run with injuries has seen them lose winnable matches in recent rounds but a top four spot is all but sealed. Adding to the injury list, Josh Woolston fractured a tibula at training last week and the club hopes scans reveal he will only miss a month of football. Sam Hirschi has reinjured his shoulder and Rory Correll rolled an ankle, with the pair unlikely to play. Daniel Haines and Steven Raeder will undergo fitness tests tonight, while

Berri will consider bringing up Josh Knight and Colby Harris from the under 18s. For Loxton, key player Leigh Kruger is likely to take up duties, possibly as a runner, with the state country team this weekend. Josh Norman will also need to be tested tonight with soreness and Pat Portolesi is unlikely to return this round. The Tiger midfield has been a major part of its improvement with Brock Birkin, Nick Uren and Kruger the engine room. Berri will need plenty from its followers with Adam Beauchamp, Mitch Blackie and Darren Marner all featuring. Jesse Smith or Mark Thiele should get the job on David Hankin, while 50 game player Michael Voigt may watch Jamahl Liddle. Loxton coach Mick Zerna said his team is winning plenty of the contested football but not converting on the scoreboard.

Steve Hefford could be tough to stop after booting nine goals against Loxton. Waikerie should win this contest by 10 goals. Unpredictable Renmark should give Barmera-Monash a shake with Paul Burne and Nick Milich performing well. The Roos have been well served by depth and experience including Nick Kuhn and Brett McPherson. Barmera-Monash should win this contest by four goals.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to back ourselves and attack at all costs,â&#x20AC;? he said. Berri coach Alby Brand said it is important to manage injuries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let it be frustrating, footy is just that way,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just got to pay them (Loxton) respect.â&#x20AC;? The Demons should claim victory by three goals.

RFL B GRADE THERE was no suprises in the weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s B grade football matches with Waikerie, Barmera-Monash and Renmark all winning. Loxton North has the biggest challenge of its season against Waikerie. Brad Walter and defender Brett Stephens have been good. However, Ben Haynes, Tyson Sutton and Steve Liebich have all been outstanding.

The Berri and Loxton match is a huge one in the context of both teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; seasons. A win for Berri would keep it in the finals hunt, while Loxton needs a win to keep up with the top four. Nathan Flight and Grant Dahlitz were solid last round, while Berri needs plenty from Dan Reynolds and Steven Hunter. Loxton should win in a tight match.

Riverland Superdogs lose to tough Hills opponent ■ A TOUGH Hills team gave the Riverland Superdogs a 50 point belting in round eight of the AFL Masters Football competition last Sunday, 12.11 (83) to 5.3 (33). During an effort described as the worst of the season, Superdogs coach Shane Healy claimed his players were “lazy and kick chasing” as the visitors ran and spread with ease and made the locals look tired and lethargic in not picking them up. The home side did have some trojans however and none more than strong marking big man Peter Hoffmann and hard running Darren Tieste. Without them the embarrassment would have been much greater. Others to have their moments included Ken Karpany with some centre clearances, Peter Aston and Rick Frahn in defence and ruckman Shaun Harris, while birthday boy Shane Hannaghan, Mark Neumann and Matthew Clifford gave the crowd something to cheer about with some superb goals. The Riverland team plays Souths in the next round on Sunday, July 29 in Adelaide from 12.30pm. That is the day after the Masters 30th Year Anniversary celebrations at the Crows Shed. The winner of this game could well be the team that survives the night best.

Waikerie’s guest bowler ■ ONE of Australia’s leading men’s bowlers Wayne Ruediger will compete in the annual Stan Burnett Day at the Waikerie Bowling Club on Sunday, August 5. Ruediger, 35, spent some of his early years in the Riverland and is the son of Monash and former Berri bowler Kym. From the Grange club he has been a member of the South Australian team for some time but is now a new addition to the national squad where he is yet to debut for the Australian senior team. He has made eight international appearances and in a 2012 Six Nations tournament at Holdfast Bay, he was a member of the gold medal triples and overall team gold

performances. Ruediger started in the sport as an 18-year-old and in the following year won his first tournament, a club pairs title with his grandfather Ron, who he considers the greatest influence on his career. The Riverland gets rare visits from bowlers of his calibre, so this is a perfect opportunity to see one of the best in action. The popular Stan Burnett event is apparently at capacity with quality entries, so the standard of play should be exceptional. At state level Ruediger is joined in the squad by another long term member in Berri’s Andrew Hill. Speaking to Andrew on Monday night he said that he

is still travelling to Adelaide regularly for squad training and that the next major event at this stage will be a series against the New Zealand team at the Lockleys complex in October. New Zealand are using the event as a lead up to the 2012 World Championships to be held at Lockleys and Holdfast Bay from November 24 to December 9. While on state squads, I understand that Berri’s Kerry Treloar has stepped down from the women’s group after a long involvement. Former Berri junior Katrina Miller remains a member, while in the under 18 squads Loxton juniors, brother and sister Gerrin and Tamzin Jenke are included.

Wade returns for Berri resulting in huge win over defending champion Renmark ■ IN LAST week’s column we suggested that in A1 netball, Berri, with players including Tegan Moldovan, Tori Brown, Nicole Hall, Taylee Howard and Ellee Eleftheriadis prominent, had done enough to indicate that better things may be to come for the club. Well last Friday night Berri added 2011 Riverland Best and Fairest Kimberley Wade, now free of her playing commitments in Adelaide, to the mix and a dynamic team effort with every member of

the team contributing resulted in a huge 54-29 victory over defending champion Renmark. This was Renmark’s first defeat for 2012 and keen followers of the game considered that the competition’s trendsetter had not succumbed to pressure in this way since its defeat by Loxton in the 2010 grand final. Berri now gets an opportunity to further enhance its place in the premiership pecking order when it meets another of the grade’s long

term heavy weights, Loxton tomorrow night. Loxton will be warned and ready but the team will need to be at its very best to record a win. Renmark on the other hand has an opportunity to regroup when it tackles Barmera away. The Lakeside club took a stranglehold on a finals spot last week in an entertaining clash with another contender Loxton North, 45-41, and will be anxious to test itself against the 2011 premier.

National Sidecar Grand Slam event to include Riverland round

Speedway’s season launch ■ THE Inaugural Ikon Suspension Sidecar Grand Slam staged throughout Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia last season, including a round at the Riverland Speedway, was hailed as a massive success and planning is well underway for next summer’s event. Again in 2012, a round will be held at the Riverland track on Saturday, December 1. This year’s round will also see a significant change to the format of the Grand Slam. The inaugural event was conducted over 10 individual meetings, so it was not a series as such. However, this year the competition will be a series, whereby riders will accrue points at every

round culminating in a winner being crowned at the end of the championship. Event spokesman Dave Parker of Full Throttle Promotions said last season was a “toe in the water wate eexercise”. e

all concerned.” Of course, some of that praise belongs to our own Riverland club and its dedicated officials so it is great to see this crowd drawing action returning to our midst.

The racing product was phenomenal and the crowds in the main, above expectations. “The racing product was phenomenal and the crowds in the main, above expectations,” he said. “This sport has come a very long way over the past few years, particularly in terms of presentation and it is a credit to

The December 1 date is sure to rate a mention at the Annual General Meeting to be held at the Speedway clubrooms, Sturt Highway, Renmark at 6.30pm (for membership applications) and 7.30pm on Friday, August 10.

A draft program indicates the 2012/2013 season will start at the Calperum Hill complex on December 1 and will contain five meetings. A number of major events other than the Sidecar Grand Slam are proposed involving Super Sedans, Modifieds, AMCA’s, Street Stocks, F500’s, plus the PA Higgs Memorial for Modifieds and Dave Wilson Memorial. And of course, there will be the traditional crowd favourites, the Figure 8 Ramp events, Cardboard Car Race and Caravan Demolition. It is just not sidecar racing that has come a long way over the past few years, with the popularity of speedway in our region also on the increase.

Hockey and netball upsets across region ■ A NUMBER of recent upset results in local football have added a lot of spice and interest to the season. But last weekend it was netball and hockey that produced the surprise scores in upsets that have to be categorized as major. As a result of these turn arounds in form across our sports, the eventual premiers in most of them are well and truly hidden as we head for the finals. So if I was giving a ‘best upset’ award for the past few weeks who would it go to? There is no doubt in my mind it belongs to the Berri Hockey Club’s A grade teams that sit at the foot of the hockey ladders but last Friday night defeated reigning premiers and 2012 top of the table teams, Loxton. Let us set the scene for the men’s game. Loxton had a week earlier

displayed premiership form in repelling a genuine challenge from Waikerie. Berri on the other hand had over recent weeks forfeited to Waikerie due to a shortage of players and when it did return to the field, had suffered some huge defeats. But on Friday night it had a host of stars including Tony Halupka, Dylan Couzner and Anthony Segui as it really took Loxton on for 1-1 at half time before a last gasp goal to Alex Arnold gave it a 2-1 win. In the women’s match, the score also read 1-1 at the halfway mark but in an entertaining second half, Berri gradually drew away to victory, 5-3. Merinda McMahon, back from Adelaide for the game, her younger sister Kira, Jane Hustler and superb goalkeeper Sara Oldfield stood out in a fine

team effort. Talking to Gavin McMahon, who as part of a heavy involvement in the sport coaches both of Berri’s senior squads, his reaction to the two surprise results centred on the club making progress in its rebuilding stage. “We have some very promising juniors right through our ranks so if we can keep some of them around the club the future looks promising,” he said. Meanwhile in Saturday’s matches at Glassey Park, Renmark and Waikerie shared the A grade spoils. Waikerie bounced back from its loss to Loxton to produce an even team performance winning 5-1 in the men’s clash, while in the women’s game, Danielle Weeks with three goals, Tegan Moldovan and Juliet Mallinson led Renmark to victory 5-0.

Round 10 starts tomorrow night with a lot of interest in the Waikerie versus Berri matches at Glassey Park. Then on Saturday, Loxton hosts Renmark for a full day of competition on grass. In the men’s contest it is unusual to report that these two teams are meeting after both losing the previous week. Players like Nathan Fielke, Sean Burgess and Tim Cass for Loxton and Stephen Cresp, Callum Benda and Aden Shaw for Renmark, will need more support from teammates than they received in those outings. In the women’s match, the traditional rivals will go at it again. Loxton, after a rare loss despite the efforts of Tara Allister, Suzie and Poppy Stivahtaris, and Renmark up for the challenge after last week’s victory.

Keenly contested rounds of soccer as teams push towards finals ■ SOCCER at Berri last Sunday must have been the most keenly contested for the season right through all of the grades. Starting with the early under 12 games, Barmera No. 1 defeated Renmark No. 1, 3-2, and Berri No. 2 accounted for Berri No. 1, 6-5. Then in under 15s, Barmera No.1 and Renmark No. 2 drew 1-1. A close game in under 16s saw Berri defeat Barmera 4-3 and

in the women’s grade, Renmark defeated Loxton 2-1 and Barmera defeated Berri 2-0. Best players in those matches were Angela Pavlomanolakos and Julianna Glykos for Renmark, Haylee Symens and Amanda Altschwager for Loxton, Christina Vithoulkas and Bree Webber for Barmera and for Berri, Nikki Harwood and Marnie Stewart. The men’s B grade went to Barmera (Jim Vlassopoulos, Charlie Makris) in a close contest

4-3 from Renmark (Theo Papageorgiou, Nardi Loulas). The A grade men’s matches followed the pattern. Berri defeated Barmera 3-2 and Renmark beat Loxton 3-1. Both clashes were extremely competitive and exciting with all sides lamenting missed opportunities but also having periods of brilliant play. Berri River Rangers had to pull out all stops to overcome Barmera United’s desperate at-

tempt to keep the defence of their premiership alive. Rangers best were Mark Klem and Dale Harwood, while Josh Tsorotiotis and Kevin Barber were outstanding for Barmera. Loxton United put in one of its most competitive efforts for the season with Joe Perre and Geordie Franks heading the resistance. On the other hand, Renmark Olympic, forced to dig deep, had Chetin Al and Matt Lewan in great touch in its victory.

SPORT Bowls fundraiser to be held as Relay for Life event ■ AFTER the Riverland Vietnam Veteran’s ‘Cancer Day’ fundraising event planned for May 20 at the Berri Bowling Club was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances, the fours competition has been rescheduled. Thanks to the generosity of the Berri Bowling Club in making its facilities available, the day will now be held to benefit ‘Relay for Life’ on Saturday, July 28 at 1pm. Teams can be of any combination with all bowlers and non bowlers welcome to play in the event, which will involve two games of 10 ends. Entries will be received from full teams of four or from individuals with the entry fee at $10 per person. A sausage sizzle at 11.30am and afternoon tea will be available. Casual dress is allowed with names to be in by 5pm Friday, July 27. To enter telephone Lucky on 8583 8373 or 0428 230 856.

McKendrick and Morrell win Barmera mixed champs ■ JOHN Thomas included an eagle on the fourth hole when he won a stableford event at the Waikerie Golf Club last week with a score of 45 points ahead of Vince King, 42. A day later Jan Pearson won a women’s event with 32 points, while on Saturday, consistent Tyson Neideck took out another men’s stableford in division one with 41 points and Alex Nicholson won division two with 46. Other leading scores belonged to Wayne Morris, 40, Craig Davis, 39, Kym Hudson and Wes Bald, 38. At Barmera, Brian Finn with 73 nett finished ahead of Neville McPherson on 75 nett in the Saturday Stroke event. David Hicks won the B grade with a score of 66 nett. Off the stick winners of the mixed foursomes championships played over 27 holes on Sunday were Carole McKendrick and Steve Morrell with 147 and runners-up were Maureen Costello and Jim McKendrick with 152. Handicap winners were Sue Rogers and Joffa Rosbergen with 112.25 with runners-up being Sally Minns and Ken Moore with 113.

Cobby Champs too good ■ THE Cobby Champs and RC Dragons were the winners in round 14 of division one Riverland Eightball. Cobby defeated Monash Club 11 to 5, while the Dragons overcame the Renmark Club 10 to 6. In Division two, Barmera Ballbreakers 9 defeated Barmera Hellenic 6, Monash Club 10 defeated Monash Red 5, Cobby Club 8 beat Berri Respite Rascals 7, Loxton RSL 13 defeated Berri Club 2, Loxton Hotel 9 beat Lyrup Club 6 and Renmark Club 9 overcame Renmark Redbacks 6.

Loxton RSL Club’s push for division one Radio for the whole family

■ From Page 28

Many of those joining in at the Anzac Crescent facility in Loxton in recent times are young as bowlers go including former footballers Craig Inglis, who has settled into the sport so comfortably that he won last season’s club championship, Craig Kernich, Jade Wright, Mal Hahn and Steve Smith. The presence of this group obviously has the potential to encourage others of the same age. Former Loxton and North Adelaide Aussie Rules man Lew Westbrook is now a veteran of the club and there are reports that he is to be joined by ex-Panther and Tiger Trevor Wurst who is transferring in. Add a “recruit from Grange” and a few others and you can appreciate the optimism around the club. Some of the seasoned members at the RSL are shocked by the improved standard of their bowlers

since the new synthetic green area was installed. Now if they get to first division in 2012/13 we may very well see that improvement continue.

DIVISION ONE CHALLENGERS? By GRAHAM CHARLTON

Wicked

AFTER taking out the 201112 division two men’s bowls pennant, the Loxton RSL Club has nominated a team for first division next season. Talking to members at the club enthusiasm abounds about the bold move with the proposal to have a team in each of the three divisions reflecting the confidence of officials in the player depth available. Obviously to win a pennant at the second level of competition there has to be some talented bowlers at the club. Loxton RSL Club president Roma Wood said competing in division one will be a big challenge.

“Most of the boys are looking forward to the challenge of going into the first division,” she said. “I think it will also create more interest in the club.” A club that started in 1974 and as well as boasting around 50 male members today, has been prominent with two teams in the third division of the ladies competition over recent years. It would be no surprise to see Loxton RSL challenge a few opponents out on the green if it makes it to top level both in the short term and definitely in the future as it attracts new players into its midst. ■ Continued Page 27
