First Tourism forum IN the first of its kind for the region, Destination Riverland will host four tourism forums annually to gain an insight from local operators. The inaugural Riverland Tourism Industry Forum will be held on Wednesday at the Berri Town Hall with operators involved in an open session and question and answer panels about the group’s strategic

report by

BRAD PERRY plan, which was released last week. Destination Riverland chair Joan Hall said it is important to engage local tourism businesses in a plan which aims to raise $242 million in

additional tourism revenue for the region over the next 10 years. “It would be the aim of the board for us to host four of these each year covering different aspects of the tourism industry in a wider sense,” she said. “The invitation is extended to tourism operators generally across the Riverland to take them through the strategic plan and let them see

where they can fit in, where they can take advantage and where they maybe have another idea to add. “We think the fact that it is now on paper, with our own KPIs that people can see, we are serious and we are here for the short term results and the long term maximum results.” During the meeting, the South Australian Tourism Commission

EDITORIAL by

Brad Perry

Cheering for Hayden WITH all the action from the Olympics just days away from starting, it is a reminder of how fast the four years went since the last one in Beijing. For Berri Swimming Club member Hayden Stoeckel it has been four years of solid training and building up to the single moment when he hits the water to compete for a Gold medal. He has had challenges along the way both physically and mentally. But you have to take your hat off to him to have the determination to put himself through the gruelling lead-up and pressure of the London Olympics. It is every athlete’s dream to be representing your country at the Olympic games. Hayden has certainly come a long way from quiet morning laps in the Berri Swimming Pool with little audience to thousands of people yelling, screaming and cheering as he prepares to race. While Hayden lines up to race, there will be nervous family members watching and an almost guarantee that the whole of the Riverland will be tuned in, biting their nails. When you put the Riverland on the national stage, we are quite small. It still amazes me that the region has produced so many talented athletes given that there are much larger communities out there. I think it is a testament to the environment these athletes grow up in and the mentors that take them under their wing. When Hayden hits the waters of London’s Olympic pool, win or lose, in the Riverland he will be a hero.

Strategy launched

DESTINATION Riverland will use its strategic plan to return some pride to the “battered” region and turn around dropping tourism visitors. The group’s strategic plan was launched at the Loxton Hotel last week with the ambition of adding $242 million in extra tourism revenue for the region within a decade. Destination Riverland chair Joan Hall does not believe the goals outlined in the plan are too ambitious, instead she labelled them as challenging. “I’m hoping that people will begin to understand that the Riverland deserves to be one of the top priorities of regional tourism in this state and that they probably need that fact reinforced because we all know the Riverland has done it tough on and off over the past few years,” she said. “Hopefully it will put lots of smiles on lots of faces. “More importantly, I think it will re-establish a lot of pride that got a bit battered.” With Riverland councils providing major funding for the group, figures reveal Destination Riverland will operate on $180,400 in 2012/13 and will rise to $232,000 in the following year and to $252,000 after that. However, it is predicted there will be less reliance on funding from councils by the third year of the plan, with potential industry partner contributions rising from eight per cent in the first year to 25 per cent in the third year. The strategic plan comprises of four strategies including to promote the Riverland intrastate, interstate and to targeted international markets, focus on the high priority visitor needs including becoming on-line ready, develop a strong working partnership with key stakeholders in tourism and promote new tourism development and expansion. As part of the KPIs, Destination Riverland is hoping to establish celebrity cooking workshops in collaboration with Food Riverland, promote the Riverland Restaurant of the season, launch a Riverland ambassadors program, develop a new Riverland event, test for multiple day walks and make recommendations about hire car and air services in the region. Ms Hall said Riverland accommodation outlets need online booking systems and packages can be also be added. The aim is to have 20 online bookable operators by June 2015 and at least one new eco-tent operator by June 2014. “I think for the short term and absolutely in the long term, it (online bookable) is a vital link to ensure that the Riverland becomes a priority regional destination in Australia,” she said. “I think we’ve got the lot except for snow, so therefore with all of the options, the differ-

Riverland Field Days announce celebrity chef RIVERLAND Field Days organisers are hopeful the inclusion of celebrity chef Marion Grasby this year will add a new spark to the annual event. The MasterChef contestant will host two cooking shows daily over the two day event and participate in the High Schools Cooking Challenge. Last year organisers of the Riverland Field Days, which attracts up to 17,500 people, did not seek the services of a celebrity chef. However, Riverland Field Days secretary Tim Grieger said being able to have Marion at the event this year should create enthusiasm. “We’re excited and thrilled about having Marion at the Field Days,” he said. “She’s known widely around Australia and the world, particularly with her involvement with MasterChef. “It brings back that focus, the feature that we have been known for for many years now of having a celebrity chef at the Field Days. “I think she’ll bring a whole new look to our cooking presentation, a whole new spark of life and energy that she always brings

with her.” Marion, who formerly worked as a radio journalist in the Riverland, has had many opportunities since MasterChef with the release of her first cookbook and launch of her own product range. “A lot of people will know here from the years gone by so we want to make her visit special and unique and I think she’ll be doing something that is great for the public to come and enjoy at the Field Days,” Mr Grieger said. The Riverland Field Days will be held on September 19 and 20.

■ ACTION: Bruno Bay Development Committee president Mark Shugg said effects of the high river have impacted on the area and (inset) what the ramp area used to look like.

BRUNO Bay Development Committee president Mark Shugg has labelled the popular tourist spot as an “eyesore” and is calling for help to return the area to its former glory. Following the high river, lawn areas, safe river access for swimmers and sand have all been lost to overgrown weeds. Mr Shugg said vandalism has also caused minor problems to areas along the Bruno Bay facilities. He said more volunteers or committee members could help to tidy the area, with long term assistance from Berri Barmera Council to maintain

the destination. “Because of the two floods that we’ve had, the bullrushes have just overgrown and it has just got out of our control,” Mr Shugg said. “We had made it so kids could swim down there between the boat ramp and the wharf and at the moment you can’t even get to the water. “We had a bit of lawn growing there and some trees and now it is just overgrown with weeds and bullrushes, it just looks terrible. “My proposal is that if we pay to get it all dredged and cleaned up and get it back to how it was,

that the council maintain it by watering and mowing it because we are going to get all new lawn planted there.” Mr Shugg said there is tireless work put in by committee members volunteering their time to make Bruno Bay look good for visitors. “Each one of our small volunteer group go to Bruno Bay on regular occasions and are often doing small maintenance tasks such as rubbish clean up, weed removal, general repair tasks such as replacing posts and, or, signage,” he said. “It’s a great boat ramp but it

just looks absolutely disgraceful like it is now.” In a report to council this month, it reads that “the area has since fell into a state of disrepair from either a lack of attention with more time and effort needed than in the past (volunteer base reliant) or because planting lawn in this area is not effectively achievable”. “Problems in this area which are not known could be the reinfestation of the bullrushes and the effect high water levels will have on the turfed area and may require periodic replanting,” the report reads.

THE move to make six new mental health beds available as part of the Riverland Regional Hospital upgrade has been praised by South Australian Senator Penny Wright. The Greens Mental Health spokesperson visited the Riverland on Tuesday, meeting with health organisations and community groups to identify key priorities for a rural policy on mental health. “People are really pleased that there are going to be some beds in the Berri Hospital to enable treatment of people who need admission to hospital with mental illness,” Senator Wright said. “We know that when people become very unwell, if there aren’t inpatient facilities then they have to dislocated and they have to go to the city and that takes them away from their loved ones and their family that supports them and that exacerbates their condition.

“That can be really traumatic because often that means they have to be sedated and they have to travel a long distance.” Senator Wright is visiting rural, regional and remote communities as part of a tour, hearing about mental health issues from the people. “Our view is everybody is entitled to good health services and particularly mental health services,” she said. “We have identified there are some real gaps to services in the bush, so we’ve decided to do some consultation with people who have experience living in the bush and having mental ill health to find out what those gaps are and what some of those solutions are, so that we can get good policy.” Some of the major issues surrounding mental health is stigma and also suicide, according to Senator Wright.

“We are interested in looking at the complex and sensitive subject of suicide because it is an issue that is being confronted across Australia,” she said. “We know there are some particular high risk groups in the bush, some of those are farmers who, in some cases, are facing low commodity prices, environmental change, a high Australian dollar and in the Riverland until recently, serious drought and also uncertainty about what is going to happen with the Murray Darling Basin. “All of those things can conspire to make the challenges really difficult for people to face, so we know there is an estimate that there is about one farmer suicide a week in Australia. “It is scary and we are interested at looking at suicide prevention and support for people who are facing those sorts of challenges.”

More heritage properties to change ownership? THE future of significant National Trust sites in the Riverland has still not been determined despite a meeting with South Australian conservation minister Paul Caica on Monday. There has been concerns held over the future upkeep of the Nappers Accommodation site in Barmera, near Lake Bonney. However, National Trust of South Australia chief executive officer Eric Heapy said a review is underway that may see even more properties across South Australia returned to State Government responsibility. “We have put forward a request for some funding which at the moment there is non forthcoming,” he said. “We further discussed that we will be conducting a comprehensive property review given the fact that we do manage 42 properties on behalf of the State Government and we receive no funding assistance for them. “We will now have to re-examine our position in respect to those properties with the possibility of returning even more to the State Government. “We put the minister on notice (at the meeting) that the outcome may well be that they may have to take over responsibility for those properties.” Mr Heapy said the review of the National Trust properties should be completed within about four weeks and will then be presented to the State Government. The National Trust of SA had al-

REWRITING HISTORY By BRAD PERRY CONCERNS have been raised over the future maintenance of one of the Riverland’s most historic sites following a decision by the National Trust of South Australia to release ownership of three local properties due to budget cuts. The State Government is likely to be forced to provide funds to maintain heritage property Nappers Accommodation House in Barmera after the National Trust of SA recommended ownership of the site be returned to taxpayers. National Trust of SA chief executive Eric Heapy said a review of 42 properties owned by the State Government but managed by the Trust has been conducted. The organisation has recommended that Nappers Accommodation House in Barmera and the Bery Bery and Memdelbuik reserves in Berri be returned to the State Government. ■ Continued Page 4

Mr Heapy said. “We would then be seeking the fact that we would prefer to convert, for instance, the dedication of the property to the trust to perhaps a peppercorn lease where the State Government is then responsible for the maintenance of the property into the future.” The Barmera National Trust had previously stated that it had a lack of volunteer numbers to maintain the local sites.

Boost for newborns

THE Riverland Regional Hospital maternity wing has been generously donated a $60,000 ultrasound machine, providing safety and best practice for mothers and babies. Instigated by the Lions Club of Berri, the machine and ancillary equipment were donated to the maternity wing of the hospital on Tuesday. Riverland Regional Hospital director of nursing and midwifery Sally Cameron said the new piece of equipment will have many benefits for the midwifery team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be used extensively for the women who are birthing in the Riverland,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is about the fact that we now have further services that we are running down at Barmera

and here at Berri for birthing the women of the Riverland and this enables us to provide the equipment that we require to service those needs.â&#x20AC;?

Mr Kearney said the club will continue to raise money through the sale of the calendar and put it towards good causes in the Riverland community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it gives every one of us a lot of pleasure just to be able to do something special, especially for the Riverland and also provide something which is going to be of great benefit in the future,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really is the ultimate experience that we wanted to have to have an ongoing annual income, which the calendar provides, so we can do just really special things throughout the region.â&#x20AC;?

SOUTH AUSTRALIA is still suffering the consequences of decades of upstream over-allocation from the River Murray which was exacerbated by the recent severe drought, according to River Murray Minister Paul Caica. Minister Caica visited the Walker Flat River Vessel Waste Disposal Station in the Murraylands on Tuesday. The river vessel waste disposal station has been closed since December 2009 due to the threat of riverbank collapse. The major staging point for houseboat tourism was closed on the advice of experts, affecting stopoffs and business for nearby towns and tourism operators. Mr Caica said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to remember that while the drought has broken and water has returned to the system, for now recovery in South Australia will take many, many years. Minister Caica also visited Berri on Monday to discuss the Basin Plan with stakeholders.

Of the 64 grant funding applications across the state,

support was only given to 29 with the Berri Barmera Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal not moving forward.

Berri Swimming Club member to do the Riverland proud as the region gets...

Right behind Hayden ■ READY: (From clockwise) Berri Primary School’s Hugh Trussell, Big River Toyota’s Mark Rudiger, Lions Club of Berri’s Steve Rodley and student Sammy Hauptman ready to plant trees.

Martin’s Bend to be revegetated FIVE Riverland schools will take part in Schools Trees Day tomorrow with the aim of planting 1000 trees to an area at Martin’s Bend. The Lions Club of Berri has invited 130 children from local schools to assist with planting of native trees. Normally the annual event sees up to 300 trees planted by about 80 students but this year Berri has been selected as one of 30 towns in the state to take part in the Trees for Towns project. The Marin’s Bend planting site is clear of vegetation and it is hoped the rejuvenation of the area can provide a habitat for birds and animals. Lions Club of Berri event co-ordinator Steve Rodley said it will be a fun day for all involved. “It’s just nice to do things with the community and see the kids get involved,” he said. Mr Rodley said the trees may be used as shade in the future. The Lions Club of Berri will also hold a sausage sizzle as a thank you to those involved.

WHILE Berri Swimming Club member Hayden Stoeckel is the only Riverland athlete competing at this year’s London Olympics, when it comes to support he has plenty of it. With the beginning of Olympic competition just days away, the Riverland is anxiously waiting to see how one of its own will compete. Berri Swimming Club president Kevin Nourse said the region is right behind Hayden. “We are all here barracking for him and we hope he comes back with Gold,” Mr Nourse said. “We have, as a club, sent him a card saying goodluck and come back with Gold.” Mr Nourse said many of the young swimmers in Berri look up to Hayden

as a role model. “It is an incentive, if a local boy can do it, someone else local could do it as well,” he said. Berri Swimming Club member Emily Kearney said she is a huge fan of Hayden and is excited about watching him compete at the Olympics. “I started at the Berri Swimming Club and he was a swimmer here,” she said. “For the Riverland having a local boy win Gold at the Olympics would be great.” A number of Berri Swimming Club members and Riverlanders attended the 2012 National Championships in Adelaide, where Hayden won his place in the Olympic team by winning the 100 metre backstroke.

■ WINNER: Berri’s Hayden Stoeckel will be hoping to pick up where he left off at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in London.

Goodes ready to tackle London Olympics THE lead-up to the London Olympics has been hectic for Loxton’s Phillip Goodes but he is looking forward to seeing the action begin. Speaking to the Riverland Weekly from a final preparation camp in Belfast, Ireland, earlier this week, Phillip (pictured) said he is excited about the opportunity as section manager of the Australian boxing team. “I think its only just starting to sink in that I am at another Olympics and loving every minute of it,” he said. “My aim is to help the team to its best possible results/ performance. “The team is looking good and has been training well. “Medals will be a

great result.” With plenty of support from the Riverland, Phillip said attending another Olympic games is still very surreal. “It’s my passion, so it means everything to me and I think the opportunities I have had are just great,” Phillip said. “It has beeen a lot of hard work to acheive much more that most would appreciate and understand but it has all paid off to date and a medal from this experience would just be fantastic. “It would be the best feeling and one that would never be forgotten. That is why I am so excited to be here again to have that type of success would just be unbelievable.” His role at the Olympic

Games is demanding but worthwhile, according to Phillip. “Coaching is very demanding and a task that brings many responsiblities and lots of sleepless nights,” he said. “Competing is preparation to the fullest to ensure success. “Coaching is my passion and much more demanding than when I was competing in different ways.” As Phillip helps his team strive for Olympic Gold, the Riverland will certainly be watching, including Phil’s son Ryan. “Ryan is very proud,” he said. “My whole family is super proud and have been a great support and without their support this would not be possible. “I hope my acheivement

helps develop Ryan and other (Riverland Boxing) club members’ ability to compete at the highest level.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Consider the future… With more sun-filled days in our Riverland than almost anywhere in else in Australia it makes sense to install solar and protect against soaring power prices. But solar is a life-time investment and it’s important for your security and peace of mind to engage an accredited installer, trained and certified to ensure your system meets industry best practice and all relevant Australian Standards. Newman Mundy is listed as a preferred supplier with Australia’s Clean Energy Council. So call Newman on 0433 349 433 and find out how solar can benefit your pocket and our planet. You won’t believe how easy and inexpensive it is to make the change. Consider your future.

Misinformation about AA

Cherish The Tree

I AM an active member of Alcoholics Anonymous. In the light of recent misinformation in the media, I wish to quote the AA preamble: “Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organisation or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety”. Personal anonymity at the level of mass media (press, television, radio, film, and the Internet) is a vital part of the AA traditions, ensuring that the focus is on the AA message, not the messenger. What AA does not do is provide a service for those suffering from other addictions, including gambling and illicit drugs. AA welcomes alcoholics who suffer from other addictions as well as from alcohol but the “common problem” for which AA exists and for which we meet, is alcoholism.

Behold the tree. Sure shelter of mankind Tall, strong and graceful; One with sun and wind. The tree triumphant Since eternity Firm friend and bastion Our linked destiny.

Mike S, Berri.

Majestic branches weave, Cleansing the ether, Very air we breathe, Lest that sweet essence From pollution dies Then shall we perish; Life on Earth shall cease.

Calls for more Scout leaders THE Riverland’s oldest scout group is calling on more volunteers with four leaders expected to leave the organisation by the end of the year. Currently the 102-year-old organisation has 18 Joeys, 22 Cubs and 10 Scouts but by the end of the year will have a lack of leaders to continue operating sufficiently. Renmark Scout Group leader-in-charge Tim Wiseman said the organisation wants to continue providing children with various experiences but needs help. “Approximately 50 per cent of our leaders are looking at resigning or taking a leave of absence at the end of this year,” he said. “That puts the group in a bit of an awkward situation in regards to program delivery for the three sections that we host here in Scouts, Cubs and Joeys. “It’s always been an issue getting leaders because I think people are really busy these days and it is hard for people to commit.

“Scouts offers just about limitless activities but you can’t do any of them without sufficient leaders.” The group recently purchased a brand new trailer from fundraising efforts and Mr Wiseman said he hopes to be able to continue outdoor activities such as camping. “Getting new blood into the place is crucial if we are going to stay open and keep providing good quality programs for the youth members,” he said. “If we are going to run the group as we have been, we need people to come to the party.” Mr Wiseman said a number of the current leaders have continued on with the group despite their children no longer attending Scouts. Through his role in the Renmark Scout Group, Mr Wiseman said he has created life long friendships and he said training to become a leader is free and involves a majority of online courses. While the Renmark Scout

Eagle Boys Berri takes out national prize BERRI Business Eagle Boys Pizza has taken out the national award for best franchisee training store among the Australian Eagle Boys Franchise at the recent national conference held at Jupiters Casino on the Gold Coast. The award is the first for the Berri franchise and the only award to be received by a South Australian store in 2012. “It was certainly a surprise to win,” owner David Centofanti said. “There were only eight awards given out on the night so to be singled out from the entire network of over 340 stores nationwide was really satisfying.” The prize was awarded to the store who provided the most comprehensive and thorough training to new franchisees entering the Eagle Boys system. Mr Centofanti praised his team by adding, “we obtained accreditation to be a training store around 15 months ago, so to win

Be wary of cheap solar offers WITH more sun-filled days in the Riverland than almost anywhere else in Australia, it makes sense to reduce your energy costs and move to solar. Newman Mundy Electrical, one of our state’s most experienced and respected solar installation companies, is now operating in the Riverland. “Solar is a life-time investment and it’s important for your security and peace of mind that you engage an experienced and certified installer to ensure your system meets industry best practice standards and all relevant Australian Standards,” Newman Mundy Electrical owner Newman Mundy said. Mr Mundy’s business is listed with Australia’s Clean Energy Council. “People can call us or visit the Clean Energy Council’s website, cleanenergycouncil.org.au, to check on what their home may need,” he said. “Solar is an investment which home owners and businesses want to last.” Mr Mundy is warning residents to be wary of “cheap” options which may offer free steak knives or Hawaiian holidays. “Our prices are so competitive we can’t afford steak nor Hawaiian holidays,” Mr Mundy added. “Consider putting solar on your house or business to benefit your pocket and our planet.” Contact Newman now on 0433 349 433 to make the change.

AUSTRALIAN 4X4 MUSTER

Loveday’s action packed Muster

■ JUMPS: The Australian 4x4 Muster at Loveday 4x4 Adventure Park is expected to attract more than 300 vehicles ready to battle the giant, muddy playground.

BEECH HARDWARE & BUILDING SUPPLIES

HE growing popularity of the Loveday 4x4 Adventure Park will be no more evident than at next weekend’s much anticipated Australian 4x4 Muster. The third event of its kind is expected to attract more than 300 vehicles from across the country on August 4 and 5. Providing an action packed weekend for the whole family, kids will not be forgotten with the Muster offering a unique overall experience. Starting on Saturday the Muster kicks off with expo sites at 9am showcasing all the latest in the off-road world. For those brave enough there

will be monster truck rides and up and coming young daredevil Toby Whateley will be hosting jump rides. At around midday, drivers will be given a debrief before the 60 acre manmade playground becomes a haven of activity for four wheel drives. It may even give participants a chance to be on television with 4wd TV and Your 4x4 crews filming the action. At 4.30pm Dirt Wars will begin involving a variety of 4x4s and utes racing on the sand drag strip. Into the evening, light entertainment will be provided so everyone can wind down and relax. The fully catered Muster, with a number of food and drink options, including the well

known Schirmer Shack Cafe’s hamburgers, roast and schnitzel packs and pizzas, is a delicious option. The event is fully licenced to serve alcohol, while there are plenty of non-alcoholic drink options as well. Organiser Tony Whateley said the Muster has grown from 70 vehicles in its first year to 240 last year and a lot more are expected this time around. “Everyone from a real low soft four wheel drive right through to hardcore four wheel drives will be out and about with the family having fun,” he said. “It’s a good gathering, they all get to check out each other’s vehicles and see who does what.” Major sponsor Adelaide City Great Wall will be in attendance with a display set up for test

driving and offering deals on a range of 4x4s. The children will have just as much fun as the adults with plenty of giveaways and a chance to sit in a huge range of four wheel drives. “The general layout of the park is very family friendly,” Tony said. “It’s quite easy for people to come along not knowing anyone and come out with a new group of friends.” Tony also added that the national event is a major boost for the Riverland. “Accommodation places will do really well out of the event,” he said. Visitors can camp on site so they don’t have to worry about driving or if they want to book at local accommodation, they need to do so soon as it is filling up quickly.

Sunday Fun Day WITH gates again open at 9am on Sunday, drivers are debriefed before all the fun begins. Drivers will be given eight tasks to complete over five hours in a bid to earn prizes. The unpredictable Sunday Fun Day means drivers are given different coloured cards with tasks on them including driving blindfolded, bowling tyres at coil springs, a professional photo shoot and extreme fishing. Mr Whateley said while some of the tasks may seem simple but they are much more complicated than driver’s think.

“On the Sunday you get a card from the tavern, that card will give you directions to go somewhere on the property and when you get there, you will have a task to complete,” he said. “The judges at each fun stop are open to bribes to help boost your points.” Following the five hour event, presentations will be held before the major prize is drawn.

The door prize AS part of participating in this year’s Australian 4x4 Muster, you will be given the chance to win a customised four wheel drive.

Proud Supporters of the Australian 4x4 Muster Loveday

The one of a kind vehicle will be up for grabs as part of a door prize to be drawn on Sunday at 4pm. All you have to do is sign in as a driver or camper and you could win one of the best looking vehicles on Riverland streets. The vehicle came together with each sponsor adding to the old model to make it look brand new. “We are the only ones in Australia that are giving away a four wheel drive,” Mr Whateley said. Attendance costs $70 per car, which will enter you in the draw to win the modified vehicle. If you don’t have a four wheel drive and just want to come in for a drink and have a look, entry is free.

top tips to $AVE on household energy costs

Switch off to $ave costs As bills for gas, electricity and water seem to rise, Riverland businesses have provided handy tips to help you save money off your quarterly bills.

THE average South Australian household will need to find an additional $275 a year for electricity bills from August and an extra $100 for gas as of this month. The Essential Services Commission of South Australia (ESCOSA) has formally announced annual gas and electricity price adjustments with an 18 per cent electricity increase and a 17.7 per cent increase in the price of gas. While the jumps will be a shock for many households, they are reportedly less than what electricity and gas companies were wanting.

The extra $275 annually is based on yearly consumption of five megawatt hours of electricity, or a daily usage of 13.7 kilowatthours. Households consuming more can expect even higher bills, as will the average small business. The hikes follow a 17 per cent leap in the cost of electricity in South Australia just 12 months ago. Families in South Australia and the Riverland are increasingly feeling the strain caused by double-digit energy price rises and turning to energy efficiency strategies to

reduce their electricity bills. South Australia isn’t the only to state that will experience more pain at the power point this year. In New South Wales, electricity prices will increase an average of 11.8 per cent to 20.6 per cent across the state as of this month and other states are expecting increases as well. Twenty two per cent of the SA electricity price rise is due to an increase in network charges, 26 per cent is due to the upcoming carbon tax and 14 per cent is related to other factors.

Approximately 38 per cent of the increase is attributable to feed-in tariff incentives due to the uptake of solar panels in the state. However, it should be noted in the big picture view (2010/2011-2013/2014), feed in tariffs will only comprise 6.6 per cent of electricity price increases in South Australia, according to figures from the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC).

How to store food energy efficiently

How to save power in the kitchen

• Only run the dishwasher with a full load.

• Microwaves can cook food three times faster than a standard oven while using up to 70% less electricity.

The temperature of your fridge should be set between 3°C and 4°C, whilst your freezer should be set between -15°C and -18°C.

• Turn off the dishwasher before drying cycle and opening the door to let the dishes air-dry. • Select the Economy cycle where possible.

• Use the least amount of required water when steaming. • Where possible, cook food with a lid on.

• Only run the dishwasher when full.

• Defrost your freezer if required as it restricts the flow of cold air.

• Thaw foods completely before cooking.

• Use cold water when rinsing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.

• Fridges should be kept out of direct sunlight where possible.

• Only boil as much water as you need in a kettle. • An electric kettle consumes less energy than boiling water on a stove. • Only pre-heat oven if necessary.

The most comprehensive football previews in the Riverland and Mallee

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND FOURTEEN MATCH OF THE ROUND kicker Thomas De Jager is a much needed inclusion, while Shaun Matthew should play and Adam Barnett will test his fitness at training. The Bombers missed the run of Jock McNeil against Paringa on the weekend and he will be back into the side, along with James Fiegert, Mark Tootell, Nigel Hampel and Lachie Patterson. Adam Flavel may be out injured, while Matt Hampel is unavailable for the rest of the season. Troy Braun has been in superb touch in the

Cobdogla v Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well COBDOGLA is heading towards a well deserved finals finish but it still has several hurdles to overcome. One of those is Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well, who has been one of the most inconsistent teams in the competition. While the Eagles are likely to be without forward Troy Dawson, there is confidence in the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s younger runners. Eagles leading goal-

midfield and he should battle against skillful Tyson Maynard. Pat Flavel has provided rebound off the wing for the Bombers, while Geordie Franks will be closely followed by Graeme Dyer. Franks was cleared to play at the tribunal on Tuesday night. Cobdogla coach Brad Gillespie said Caleb Brown has played well up forward since coming into the team. He said the young players have really provided spark.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our youngsters have been running the footy into the forward line pretty well and not relying on one person,â&#x20AC;? Gillespie said. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well coach Lance Degenhardt emphasised the importance of the match. If the Bombers are to lose, all hope of a finals spot is gone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a very big game for us,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need this one to keep up in the race for the finals.â&#x20AC;? Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well should be victors by three goals.

THE OTHER GAMES coach Cecil Rigney said there will be a match this weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We definitely wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get kicked out of the competition,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are looking pretty good to have a full team this weekend.â&#x20AC;? Rigney said a team bus needing 15 players on board has been organised. The Warriors are likely to include Blair Dillon, Paul Cooper and the Crisp brothers, Matt and Mitch-

BSR v MoorookM Kingston K AFTER forfeiting last round against Ramco, Moorook-Kingston has stated that situation will not happen again. It will be another big ask to field a full team with the Warriors playing in Swan Reacg this round. However, Warriors

ell in the team. For BSR, Kyle Coleman, Chris Giles and Greg Sobey are all carrying injuries and may miss this match. Blanchetown/Swan Reach coach Peter Zadow said his team is playing well in the lead up to the finals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The lads have started to gel together again,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Really, I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a matter of getting the boys to keep playing their struc-

tures and to keep that happening.â&#x20AC;? There are plenty of dangerous players for the Redbacks with Troy Cowland booting seven goals on the weekend from the midfield, while Jamie Tanner and Josh Waechter are ones to watch out for. The Redbacks will play the waiting game to see whether the Warriors field a team and if they do, it will be a percentage boosting win.

Wunkar v Lyrup

Ramco v East Murray

FINALS football is still well and truly on the agenda for Lyrup with the Lions needing to beat Wunkar this round. The Bulldogs have been competitive when they are able to field their best team but it has been a struggle in recent weeks. Lyrup has a favourable draw with Wunkar, Moorook-Kingston and East Murray in the last three rounds. Wins in each of those games will more than likely give it a finals spot over Cobdogla, dependent on results in other matches. The experienced Lions defence has been one of their strong points with Tom Smith leading the way. Nathan Gregory continues to be the key forward but Simon Sumner is also handy around the goal front. For Wunkar, Daniel Evans continues to find the football in the middle of the ground and Harley Bennell and Simon Atkinson provide run from half back. Given Wunkarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent form, Lyrup should be victorious after a close first half.

TRAVELLING to Ramco is always a tough task, especially given that East Murray is now only playing for pride. All hopes of an unlikely finals berth were dashed for the Tigers last round with the loss to Cobdogla. The Roosters have been the in-form team of the competition and will be looking forward to playing this weekend after Moorook-Kingston forfeited against them on the weekend. Zak Schubert has really returned to form for the Tigers but will be up against Jamie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Callaghan. In the middle Chris Rudiger has easily been East Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best player but he may need to play a defensive role on Daniel Donnelly. Brendan Gough may get the job on goalkicking machine Max Baddack, although Rudgier may also be considered for that task. The Roosters are still pushing for a top two finish and will need a percentage boosting win against the Tigers to give them a chance.

MALLEE FOOTBALL LEAGUE MATCH OF THE ROUND

Karoonda v Murrayville MURRAYVILLE has positioned itself for a top four finish with one of the strongest attacks in the competition. Daniel Fry and Trent Sporn have added 96 goals between them. The pair will keep Karoonda accountable as the Magpies chase the minor premiership.

Unfortunately Luke Hocking has been forced out of Karoondaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team with injury, while Mark Corrie is likely to also miss this round. Again the engine room for Karoonda this season has been the midfield. The opposition has tried and failed when attempting to stop Corey Knight, Zakk Bullard and Ben Quinn. Those names go up against the Bulldog midfield featuring Michael Worsman

and Nick Rees. It should be a great contest in the ruck with Josh Rudiger against Todd Jones. Andrew Smithson, Daniel Thiele, Jarred Graetz and Brodie Chinner have combined well in defence and either of those players may match up on Fry and Sporn. The result depends on whether Karoonda can stop Sporn and Fry and we think Karoonda can win in a shoot-out.

IT is a must win game against Pinnaroo if Peake is going to remain a finals candidate. The Supa Roos have had a season they would rather forget but surprisingly can still make the finals. It is understood flu struck down a large portion of the Peake team last round and those players would be hopeful of returning this weekend.

Caine Lynn, Scott Feltus. Robert Brodhurst, Trent Wingard, Kieran Jaensch, Bryce Jaensch and Salim Hassan did not play. It should be a good contest in the ruck with Jason Dikkenberg playing well. Around the football Ryan Morris has shown good signs for Peake, as has Lachlan Wilson. Pinnaroo will look closely at forwards Ryan Nickolls and Anthony Lippis, hoping both will return this round. Clint Muster and Wade

Nickolls have both been stand out players in recent weeks for Pinnaroo. Tyron Bennetts has potentially been one of the Supa Roosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best players this season and Alex Keough has been superb in the midfield. Pinnaroo has been highly inconsistent, so it really depends on what Pinnaroo team actually turns up this round. Realistically Peake should win this contest without trouble but we think Pinnaroo could cause an upset.

? Did you know..?

RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE - ROUND TWELVE MATCH OF THE ROUND

Loxton North v Loxton

84/.

IT is the unofficial rivalry round and while there is no cup to play for, there is arguably more at stake for these two teams. The reigning premier can virtually knock Loxton out of the finals race with a win, while victory for the Tigers gives them a realistic chance for a top four finish. Both Loxton North and Loxton have improved in the second half of the season but by how much only time will tell. Generally no matter where these two teams sit on the ladder, the intensity of the match is high when the cross-town rivals meet. The Panthers will be bolstered by the inclusion of ruckman Ben Miller, however fellow tall Ben Wehrmuller is out. Another concern is the gutsy Tim Arnold who suffered another concussion on the weekend. Mitch Fazekas will be missed this round for the Tigers due to work, just as he was hitting his straps. Captain Leigh Kruger is a big addition to the team from his duties as runner for the state country team, while quick footed Pat Portolesi still has struggled to train with back problems. Both coaches claimed their teams‘ performances last round were the

worst of the season to date. What has been most impressive is the Panther midfield to step up and kick goals when the forward line is lacking consistent options. Jamie Ferguson and Ryan Proud have booted 42 goals between them. Former Brown’s Well player Blake Milich has been playing in attack and it will be interesting to see if he can have an impact this round. Justin Proud kicked five goals against Waikerie but will find the going tough against Raph Liddle. Kruger and Proud will contest in the middle, while Anton Cook will be punching all day against strong marking Jamahl Liddle. Lacking another solid forward option, Jesse Smith is likely to play in the attacking goal square, which could be an exciting move. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said each game is critical now. “Every game is like a final for us and hopefully the boys can see that,” he said. “If we beat them, it will be the end of Loxton.” Loxton coach Mick Zerna said the game will be won in the midfield. “It was pretty close last time we played them, so we’d like to think we can put up the same sort of effort,” he said. We all love a bit of rivalry and that will be on display as Loxton North wins by three goals in a tense finish.

Waikerie v Renmark AS the race for the final four heats up, Renmark has a tricky assignment against Waikerie. The Magpies are slowly building, holding onto second position on the ladder, and will be determined to win at home. After impressing at the state country championships in Wagga Wagga, centre half back Steven Braun returns to the Magpies line-up, while Daniel Smith and Matt Underwood are likely to play. Craig Underwood will undergo a fitness test before he is given the green light. For Renmark, Adam Bryant is under an injury cloud, while Brodie Redpath and Matt Smith may return. There are some important contests with Matt Camplin against Michael Bratton, Braun on Seekamp and potentially Steven Pitt on Ben Venning. Pitt has been given

several different roles this season and he could be most effective on the counter attack in defence. Andrew Bachmann has been dangerous across half forward and Russell Menz may need to watch his creativity around the football. Damian Stevens has been relatively quiet in recent weeks, so expect a big match from him. One of the most exciting match-ups will be the youth with Joseph Haines on Josh Warnock. Waikerie coach Craig Griffiths said winning home games in the lead up to the finals is a must. “We enjoy playing at Waikerie and every home game our focus is to play our best football,” he said. “We need to keep maintaining the things we are doing and hope the results will follow.” Waikerie will not waste home ground advantage, although the scoreline will be closer than many people are predicting.

LIFE FM 100.7 broadcast Waikerie V Renmark

On THE mark All of the Riverland and Mallee football news, views and rumours IT is certainly is and has been a busy week for the Riverland tribunal. MOOROOK-Kingston’s coach has vowed not to forfeit another game thi season to keep his team in the competition. WHERE are all the goalkickers? The top RFL goallkicker has just

33 goals to date. WE have heard that questions were raised about a local umpires’ interpretation of ‘an unrealistic attempt at a mark’ at Loxton North last round. FORMER Adelaide Crows Peter Caven and Kym Koster will be in the Riverland this weekend.

THE OTHER GAMES

BarmeraMonash v Berri BARMERA-Monash has the quality player stocks to win the premiership but in recent rounds the team has been tested. At one stage of the season a team could not get within 10 goals of the Roos but now the margins are being slowly reduced. This round Berri has the task of halting the Roos’ run, although that challenge may be made more difficult with league leading goalkicker David Hankin facing the tribunal tonight. Berri will be hopeful of regaining Ryan Langcake and Aaron Gepp, while Barmera-Monash will include Lachie Middleton and Jake Smith into the team after missing last round. It is hard to contemplate how the Demons will be able to cover the talent of Barmera-Monash. There is Dillon Millard,

Mal Greenwood, Michael Smart, Sam Elliott, Tyler Baldock and Murray Middleton to name a few. There is still plenty of depth for Berri with the likes of Ryan Porter, Darren Marner, Steven Raeder, Adam Beauchamp and Peter Safralidis. Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said many teams have been playing the loose defender from the first bounce. “We seem to be getting a lot of attention at half forward on Murray Middleton, even being double teamed,” he said. Burns said the Roos are holding the ball back looking for the right option. “We are holding it and bouncing it when the forwards are out of position,” he said. “We need to move the ball into the forward line quicker.” Some key match-ups include Aaron Manning on Martin Barber, Beauchamp with Greenwood and Safralidis and Murray Middleton.

RFL B GRADE The defence has been solid with Chris Vowles, Alex Leuth and Brett Stephens getting plenty of the football, while Callum Trifonoff played well in the ruck last round. The Loxton veterans will again need to be on top of their game with Steve Westbrook, Dom Portolesi and Grant Dahlitz finding form. Loxton North has been up and down but should win this match convinc-

ingly. Lakeside, Berri will want a win against Barmera-Monash to keep its finals hopes alive but the Roos will be too good. Jayme Peltz has been consistent up forward and could kick a bag but Nigel Dillon will lead the Roos. At Waikerie, Tyson Sutton leads his team in what should be a win against Renmark despite an injury to forward Steve Hefford.

THE weekend’s results have set the B grade competition up for its most exciting finish to the season for some years. Berri easily beat Loxton by 37 points, Renmark upset Barmera-Monash by 57 points and Waikerie were unchallenged in a 97 point win over Loxton North. Facing bottom placed Loxton, Loxton North needs to win this contest for a finals chance.

Riverland players perform strongly at Open Eightball Singles Championships but...

Adelaide’s Emery wins title

■ THE leading players at the annual Berri Resort Hotel Open Eightball Singles Championship weekend are traditionally thrown together in a competition to start the tournament in the form of a invitation knockout event. Last Friday night when the 25th Berri Open cranked up, 2012 joint championship favourites James Delahunty and Jake McCartney finished first and second in one competition and Alec Evreniadis and Ricky Emery in the other. Delahunty, McCartney and Evreniadis had all previously won the singles title. Emery had not. But he has now after he won Sunday’s final against Whyalla’s Mark Stone 4-1. Emery is another young product of the Chalkers Pool Hall in Adelaide where he is mentored by Mick Delahunty. Berri Open tournament director Neil Lemmey said “this continues a changing of the guard”. “Ten years ago the older, experienced players were grabbing the main prize money but now it is the younger guys,” he said. “In recent years teenagers Jake McCartney, Nathan Nemes and now Emery have won the title. “It is interesting to note that they all played here earlier as juniors before taking on the main event.” Lemmey was also pleased that a number of Riverland players performed strongly across

the weekend. Rose Rice and Trish Stieler both made the last 16 of the Ladies Knockout that was won by Joy Sullivan, while in the championship itself, Shawn Salmon became the first Riverland player ever to reach the semi-finals. Shane Irons made the last 16 and Glen Carter finished in the final 32 players. Salmon currently plays locally for Cobby Champs but the youngster has come the way of Lyrup third division and Renmark Football Club and Paringa Hotel. Along the journey he has been mentored by such players as Jim Whellum, Bruce and Eric Knight. In Sunday’s quarter finals he defeated another Adelaide player Grant Weekley 4-2 and then lost 4-3 against Whyalla’s Mark Stone but it is his earlier clash with James Delahunty that is being talked about as the match of the weekend. Both players were brilliant in taking turns to clear the table before Shawn clinched victory in a short but spectacular contest. Rick Emery, on the way to pocketing $4500 for his title win, defeated Tim Martlew (Port Augusta) 4-3 in the quarter finals and in the semi finals beat Joe Ratcliffe (Mount Gambier) 4-0. Another successful Berri Resort Hotel eightball weekend attracted 365 entries from across Australia.

Barmera United’s second half spectacle ■ BERRI River Rangers moved into safe premiership country after a dominant midfield and forward area took it to a convincing 12-1 victory over Loxton United on Sunday. Rangers now have 31 points on the ladder, 10 clear of 2011 champion Barmera United, which had a 6-3 win against Renmark Olympic. The move of Tyson Schrapel (four goals) up forward to join Marcus Drogemuller and Chris Miller, each with three goals, saw the trio run riot to destroy Loxton.

A highlight for Loxton however was a spectacular Geordie Franks goal, while Jack Jaensch and Joe Perre battled hard throughout. In the other game, Barmera had found the net twice in the opening 15 minutes but a brilliant solo run for a goal by Kyle Collinson lifted Olympic to level the scores at 2-2 at half time. Renmark missed some golden opportunities upon resumption before the blistering speed of Barmera’s Kosta Zois gave him three

quick goals and the deadlock was broken. Barmera went on to win 6-3 with Kevin Barber and Nathan Hamood named as the best players. Bari Singh Sahota and Collinson stood out for Renmark. In the Open Women’s competition, Renmark (Dalyce Jenner, Jasmine Thomas) won a keen game from Barmera (Bree Webber, Olivia Hambi) to move to 26 points on the table. Loxton remains on 16 points in second position af-

ter it went down to bottom placed Berri 2-0. Berri’s best were Renee Hronopoulos and Brianna Walden and Nicole Tate and Libby Tuhoro were best players for Loxton. Margins down through the other grades were generally decisive but an exception was a quality under 16 contest in which Renmark just edged out Barmera 3-2. Ethan Cinc and Ben Pilgrim for Renmark and Felix Ingenerf and Guiseppe Pangallo for Barmera, were in outstanding form.

Crows premiership players in town ■ ADELAIDE premiership players Kym Koster and Peter Caven will be in the Riverland on Saturday as part of the Riverland Crows Supporters Shed Party. The concept of the Carlton Draught Shed Party is to provide supporters with con-

tact to players past and present during a function. The annual event will begin at 12.30pm at the Renmark Club with more than 100 people expected to attend. Riverland Crows Supporters Group president Adrian Hughes said the football club hosted

function will include giveaways, raffles and prizes, while watching Adelaide play Geelong on the big screen. “After our successful year so far, it has meant new membership to the Riverland Crows Supporters Group,” Mr Hughes said.

“It would have been great to have current players but none are available at this point and we are looking forward to being able to having Kym Koster and Peter Caven in the region.” Late bookings for the event are welcome by phoning Sue on 8541 3035 after 6pm.

At only 53 kilograms in body weight, Gow lifted 75.5kg in the squat disâ&#x2013; Barmeraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cipline, 50.5kg in bench press and 130.5kg in deadRose Gow lift for a total of 256.5kg and (left) at the National Drug Free Don Juers with Cheryl Three lift competition at Maryborough in Victoria Rapson.

on the weekend. That performance saw her finish second overall of 11 women competitors at the event and gave her four state, one national and four world records. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something that you dream about and you train for but to do it on the day is terrific,â&#x20AC;? Gow said. Gow was one of six members of the SA Drug Free Powerlifting Association to be amongst a total

of 30 lifters at the tournament. Winkieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cheryl Rapson also broke a number of records, four state, four national and one world competing in the 90 kilogram division. Her lifts were 80kg squat, 62.5kg bench press and 70kg deadlift. Two other Riverland lifters, Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fran Marlor with two state records and Berriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Andrew Norris,

Luke Hampshire won the Saturday Stableford at Barmera with 40 points, followed by Neville McPherson on 39 and Kevin Martin and David Hicks on 37.

with four state records and Adelaide father and son Damian and Chris Powell with a state record each, contributed to an excellent tournament for the SA group. Association President and Coach, Kingston on Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Don Juers acted as a referee at the competition. Anyone requiring further details on powerlifting can ring Don on 8583 0196.

Berri shows renewed confidence as it sends a warning to rest of the netball competition â&#x2013; DURING much of the 2011 A1 grade netball season, Berri, with experienced coach Chris Eleftheriadis at the helm, was considered a real chance of at least contesting for the premiership. But in the end it was unable to interrupt something of a Renmark and Loxton ownership on positions in the grand final. Then prior to season 2012, most of the predictions on Berriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immediate future made reference to a need to rebuild. After all, only Ellee Eleftheriadis, Taylee Howard and Tori Brown (nee Jachmann) looked like being available from the previous season. Amongst the key players unavailable for various reasons were Riverland 2011 best and fairest player Kimberley Wade, Michelle Wenman and Kelly Scholefield.

Also the club lost the experience of Eleftheriadis as coach with inexperienced Tori Brown taking over the role. Pre-season predictions in any sport are â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;egg on faceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; material however, just have a look at the top end of the AFL Premiership ladder for example. Berri, after defeating the two long term heavy weights of the A1 competition, reigning premier Renmark, and 2011 runner-up Loxton in the past two outings, is now being rated an even bigger chance than last season of winning its first title since 2000. A highlight of its victory over Renmark was the superb effort of Kimberley Wade back for the game from Adelaide and now likely to qualify for the finals. The talented midfielder did not appear against Loxton but she was not

required as after a match winning second half, Ellee Eleftheriadis, Tori Brown, Tegan Moldovan, Taylee Howard and Carolyn Martin all competed for best player honours in the 55-45 victory. Loxton succumbed to the pressure after being in a 24 all contest at the half way mark and in fact, lost second position to its opponent with the result. Its best players were Amber George and Leah Uren. Whereas Berriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impact on the season has added welcome lift to the fight for the pennant but it should not be discounted that another new look team is also issuing vibes that it may also have a part to play. Barmera, even though it went down 59-46 to Renmark, is definitely on the improve. Cobie Drogemuller, Katie Saville and Jenna Thomas

are all in good form. But let us not discount Renmark going back-to-back in 2012. Apart from the one blemish against Berri it is undefeated and that loss may have indeed been a wake-up call. Kerry Turk, Jessie-Lee, Denika Gartery, Hannah Foody and a back to form Anita Modlinski all played well against Barmera, and take a rest with a bye this weekend to freshen up for the business end of the season. Tomorrow night it will be interesting to see how Loxton responds to a lean time when it takes on young and enthusiastic neighbour Loxton North, while Barmera has a new tall poppy to measure itself against in Berri. Meanwhile, in Independent netball last Saturday, the three A grade matches

were won by big margins including a 50-27 victory by East Murray over Cobdogla. East Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best were Mikayla Curtis and Johannah Hall and Makayla Wellington and Hayley Kruger stood out for Cobdogla. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well had Tamara Brown and Megan Rudd in top form when it defeated Paringa 45-15. Paringaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best were Nadia Mills and Taylee Healy. In the other game, Ramco defeated Moorook Kingston 55-16 thanks mainly to the strong performance of Sharna Linke and Jacqui Wood. Veronica Migga and Mel Morena battled hard for Moorook Kingston. In B grade, Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well (Narelle Borgmeyer, Natasha Boxall) accounted for Paringa 31-25. Paringa was best served by Kait Eckermann and Lauren Murphy.

â&#x2013; YOUNG Renmark shooter Kailan Markham had no trouble finding the targets for a 67/75 performance that gave him a win in A grade and High Gun honours overall at last Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition at the Renmark-Berri Field and Game Range. In the final round he missed only the very last target. After early morning fog lifted other shooters to have successful events, including Glossopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tony Trevorrow with 61/75 in AA grade, Ray Pash (Loxton) who with 64/75 was runner-up to Kailan Markham in A grade, and Steve Markham (Renmark) 64/75 and Peter Hicks (Adelaide) 64/75 who were separated by a shoot off in B grade.

Race for top two finish Football is a real science â&#x2013; THE A grade hockey competitions continue to produce surprise results and if there was a tipping race on it would be a nightmare for those involved. However, I have some problems with these four team competitions where all clubs know before the first game is played that they have a place in the finals already booked. I believe a real case can be made for the format applied by Riverland Baseball whereby the minor premier goes directly to the grand final and teams two and three meet in a preliminary final to decide the other contestant for the title. Having said that, let us respect the Riverland Hockey Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision as a lot of the intrigue about its season is that the team placed fourth at the end of the minor round can go on to grab the premiership. Remember a couple of weeks ago, Berri, fourth, defeated Loxton, first, in both Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s A grade contests? Loxton, in fact, lost top position on the table last weekend to Waikerie in A grade men. Waikerie brought Berri back to earth after its upset win over Loxton by handing out a 12-0 thumping on the back of a superb team effort led by Andrew Nitschke, Jason Redemski, Patrick Sutherland and Lachlan Seabrook (three goals). Scott Moldovan and Anthony Segui battled gamely for Berri.

â&#x2013; SCORED: Waikerie A grade menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey players celebrate after scoring a goal against Renmark on the weekend. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game was much closer with Berri making it two wins on end with a 3-2 victory after scores were 1-1 at half time. Merinda McMahon produced a best on ground performance for Berri as she consistently opened up the Waikerie defence, while solid support came from Emma Burge, Kris Weir and form keeper Sara Oldsfield. It was appropriate that Merinda slammed home the deciding goal in the dying stages of the game. For Waikerie Zoe Liebich, Thalia Boatswain and Miriam Kroehn were named best with Amelia Harkness scoring both of her teams goals to go with the 10 she netted earlier in the girls under 16 match. Renmark and Loxton drew in both of their senior clashes. Loxton, with a number of its key players unavailable, were put under early pressure in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clash and found itself 2-0 down as Renmark had players like Matt Mal-

linson, Mark Hartwig and Andrew Coombs having good afternoons. To its credit, however, Loxton regrouped in the second half and lifted by Ty Othams, Tim Cass and Tim Vivien it clawed its way back to a 2-2 draw. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game saw a 1-1 result for Renmark and Loxton. Renmark led for most of the contest and it was only a conversion by Billie Jo Hammerstein from a penalty corner after the final whistle that enabled Loxton to share the premiership points. As far as best players were concerned, goalkeepers Tegan Moldovan for Renmark and Tracey Townsend for Loxton â&#x20AC;&#x153;played blindersâ&#x20AC;?. Also named in the best players for Renmark were Lauren Scott and Teresa Shawyer and for Loxton Trish Gillard and Louise Smith. This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s matches are at Glassey Park, Waikerie versus Loxton tomorrow night and Berri against Renmark on Saturday.

â&#x2013; FOOTBALL has become a real science for coaches and their staff as far as statistics and information on performances is concerned. At AFL level the players have no secrets. But I am fascinated by the complex schedules produced in the press that are supposedly for the benefit of the reader and supporter. What does the data mean and of what benefit is it to the average football follower? For example, look at the recent clash between North Melbourne and Carlton.

North Melbourne had 325 disposals, Carlton 57 more at 382 made up of 202 kicks against 221 and 123 handballs to 161. Marks went in favour of Carlton also 87 to 82 and those crucial, match deciding tackles were 63 to 48 the navy Blueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way. With each one of those stats favouring Carlton and it being only a week since it had trounced ladder leader Collingwood, anyone presented with those facts could have been excused for thinking it had won the contest. But that it did not.

North Melbourne won by the length of the straight, 25.4 (149) to 14.12 (96). Perhaps the deciding factors then were North Melbourne boasting a 49-30 advantage in hit outs and, although it trailed in free kicks 1617, three of those were 50 metre penalties. I reckon most football followers would simply be convinced that the surging Kangaroos were really on song and the erratic navy Blues had severe laryngitis. As for all the statistics, it is simply misleading and useless information to the

Finally funding for United

RECORD BREAKERS

Local powerlifters continue to raise the bar.

By BRAD PERRY THE transformation of the former greyhound racing track into Barmera United Soccer Club’s new home has been given a significant boost with a $28,000 contribution from the State Government. Funding through the Community Recreation and Sports Facilities Program (CRSFP) means major work will get underway at the site very soon. Barmera United Soccer Club secretary Tania Wallace said the funding will be put towards stage one which includes constructing the pitch, irrigation and new goals. “Everyone has been sitting around with their fingers crossed hoping we were going to get this grant, so it was pretty ex-

citing news,” she said. The club will be contributing matching inkind work, as well as its own funds towards the project. “We won’t be playing consistently out there until the start of next season but work should get underway quite soon,” Mrs Wallace said. Once the first stage is complete, Mrs Wallace said the club’s players, supporters and officials will be able to enjoy their own clubrooms and changerooms for the first time. “It is still not like we are actually home because we still have to cart things out there for each game,” she said. The club will apply for further funding in the future to complete stage two, the installation of lights.
