VISITOR CENTRE TO REMAIN By BRAD PERRY
THE Renmark Paringa Visitor Information Centre will remain in its current location on Murray Avenue following a decision not to relocate the riverfront facility. Renmark Paringa Council instead has decided to install further signage, have more flexible staffing arrange-
ments and an online camera at the visitor information centre to boost numbers to the location. After considering several submissions arguing for and against the relocation, council decided not to move the information centre to Eighteenth Street at Tuesday night’s council meeting.

EDITORIAL BY
BRAD PERRY
VIC to stay, the right decision? FOR a number of months there has been passionate debate on whether the Renmark Paringa Council should move the local visitor information centre. At Tuesday night’s council meeting, it was voted that the VIC should stay in its current position on the riverfront. Do you think this was the correct decision? Speaking to volunteers on the PS Industry, they would be ecstatic to hear the news. There were real concerns about the future of the paddle steamer if the VIC was relocated. Many people may argue that we need change but we also need to know what is working and what is not. The VIC is in a prime location on the River Murray but it needs some work to make it the ideal spot for tourists to stop. It is out of the way, so further signage is crucial. The parking is always an issue and that is something that will need some work. At least a decision has been made and we can close the chapter on that book... for now.
Waste correction In the Riverland Weekly on August 23 it was incorrectly stated that the Loxton Waikerie Council will be holding free dumping of domestic and refuse and garden waste in Loxton last Saturday when the correct date
should have been Sunday only. The Waikerie dump facility offered the free service on Saturday and Sunday but Loxton only offered it on Sunday. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Councils to hire waste co-ordinator
Flood protection THE Renmark Paringa Council has decided to protect the district with a one in 100 year annual exceedance probability flood event as part of its preferred design standard for upgrading the flood levee banks. “Effectively it is saying this is our preferred
design standard which would protect the community for every flood event in history except two being 1956 and 1870,� Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour said. “The levee banks are constructed in such a way that in the event
of a larger flood event, which is very unlikely, then they can be topped up.� The council is now working on a business case and will eventually work on a funding model, which could be based on similar rehabilitation works recently completed in Wentworth.
Star netballer guest speaker at presentations THE Riverland Netball Association has been able to secure a big name for its 2012 netball presentations at the Loxton Sporting Club on Saturday night. In an exciting announcement for local netballers, Adelaide Thunderbirds star Carla Borrego (pictured) will
be the guest speaker on the night. Riverland Netball Association’s Wendy Gambling said having Carla at the presentations will be a big boost for fans. “I think it’s just fantastic for Riverland netball, especially for all of our juniors,� she said.
The presentation is expected to be booked out with around 300 people in attendance.
AT LEAST two Riverland councils will put funding towards the employment of a regional waste co-ordinator to educate the community as kerbside recycling is introduced in January, 2013. Renmark Paringa Council has allocated up to $25,000 for a period of two years to employ the parttime waste coordinator and will partner with the Berri Barmera Council, who will also contribute funds. It is unknown whether Loxton Waikerie Council will offer financial support towards the position. Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt said hiring a waste co-ordinator is important. “I think it will be very beneficial because at least that waste co-ordinator can get out there and inform the public, which is the
main thing,� he said. “I’ve been speaking to a lot of the community and they are not quite sure what can go in each bin and everything else, so that will be one the roles of the co-ordinator. “There are still a lot of questions that are coming in from the community that needed to be answered and we figured that it is best to have a co-ordinator onboard, who knows what they are doing, who can look at our waste scenario and pass that on to the community. “It would be nice to see the whole region of councils on board but I think at the same time in saying that, the District Council of Loxton Waikerie are probably a little bit further advanced in areas with their recycling preparations.�
Almost 500 people attend Riverland Orchid Society annual event ALMOST 500 people attended the Riverland Orchid Society’s Annual Orchid Spectacular at the Berri Town Hall over the weekend. With nine different genera, there were 300 orchids on display from all over the Riverland. Organisers said the visiting orchid judges were very impressed with both the amount and the cultural quality that was presented. Berri’s Tony Francis won the Grand Champion award, with Reserve Champion going to Trevor and Shirley Mayfield, both of Berri.

After 46 years in operation, citrus board sends message to new group
Goodbye and good luck THE SOUTH Australian Citrus Industry Development Board (SACIDB) wished new citrus group the South Australia Regional Advisory Committee (SARAC) all the best during its farewell in Waikere on Tuesday but admits it has lot of challenges ahead. It was a sad occasion for board members, growers and stakeholders when the SACIDB held its farewell gathering at the Waikerie Hotel, following its final meeting. The board is being wound up following the formation of SARAC. “Generally today we wished them well at our meeting and one of our directors is a member of the new SARAC board,” SACIDB chairman Richard Fewster said. “They’ve got some huge challenges to look at maintaining the services that growers have become use to for 46 years and there is no way in the world on the funding model they’ve got of $1 per tonne that they can go anywhere near some of those services.” During SACIDB’s final meeting, it was decided that support and assets will be offered to SARAC. “It was a unanimous decision of the board that we are going to provide an information kit to SARAC on things that are going on and information we have, so

per cent,” he said. “I ran a business of my own for 40 years and if we were facing that situation we would sit down and say ‘what’s working and what’s not working’. “Commercially it just does not make sense. “It needs to be restructured on a federation model so there is more enrolment and the people in the industry, the 90 per cent or the 85 per cent of growers who have disenfranchised, become part of it. “We’ve got to have a Citrus Australia but the model is wrong.” Semi-retired Waikerie cit-
rus grower Mike Arnold said there are still many questions to be asked. “I am (sad) in some ways to see the board go because they had a bit of political clout and we haven’t really got that now,” he said. “It’s all right to say they are saving levies but whose going to keep the statistics for the industry, whose going to do the Adelaide Show and whose going to chase fruit fly or problems in the markets?” The board will be formally wound up on September 17 with two full time and two part-time jobs lost.
Ratepayers threaten recycling bin boycott DISGRUNTLED Berri Barmera Council ratepayers are threatening to call a public meeting to voice concerns about the introduction of kerbside recycling and the associated fees. While a number of residents are suggesting they will not pay the extra fees for kerbside collection, others want to let their opinions be heard. The Berri Barmera Ratepayers’ Association has been virtually inactive for some months now but former chairman David Moritz believes it is time for the organisation to be reignited. “We’d like to see it up and running again because I do be-
lieve if you haven’t got anybody that is keeping an eye on council it all just gets out of hand,” he said. “People think that the ratepayers asso association is right onto it
point of saying they are not going to pay the bin fee. “They’ve stated that they don’t have enough to put in the bins.” Berri resident Terry Plumb
I think what we’ve got to do is have a public meeting over this issue. but they are not, there is nobody there looking after it at all. “There doesn’t seem to be any public consultation at all, especially with the three bin system. “A lot of people I’ve heard are really against it and almost to the
said many ratepayers cannot afford the extra fee for bin collection, despite a rebate for pensioners. “There are plenty of ratepayers in my position that don’t require the bins because we recycle
our own stuff,” he said. “If push comes to shove, I think what we’ve got to do is have a public meeting over this issue. “I think this would send a very strong message.” However, Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt said the introduction of kerbside reycling is unavoidable. “This is not council, this has come from authorities and we have to abide by EPA guidelines,” he said. “It is not only our region’s councils, it is councils all over the state and all over Australia doing this.”
Eyes and ears on the street as youth crime concerns raised THE arrest of two 12-year-old girls in separate incidents this month has prompted the local Neighbourhood Watch to remind the public about educating others against crime. Yesterday, a 12-year-old female was arrested after she attended a house pretending to fundraise where she allegedly stole a purse with money. In another incident this month, a 12-year-old female from
Renmark was arrested on August 19 for mark graffiti after she was allegedly seen by off-duty police putting graffiti on the front walls of local businesses. Neighbourhood Watch Riverland co-ordinator Lynette Nitschke said it is sad to see young people caught up in crime. “Unfortunately it usually is young people...but 12 is extremely young,” she said. “We are just continually pro-
moting for people to look out and not to commit the crimes or if they see someone who does, report it. “There are so many crimes children get involved with to do with the internet and that sort of thing. “We’ve been doing a fair bit of awareness type stuff for parents about watching for the dangers on the internet.” Mrs Nitschke said it is important to be on the look out for
crime and report it to the police. “If you want a safe town to live in, it’s up to us to help keep it safe and I think if we let people know we don’t want criminals in town if they are going to behave like that, we want to have decent people living in the town who care for each other and care for our towns,” she said. “We need to be the eyes and ears for the police because they can’t be everywhere.”

ICONIC Riverland paddle steamer Industry will embark on an historic cruise to Mildura next week for the first time in two decades. The paddle steamer plans to leave its Renmark dock on Tuesday, alongside heritage vessels PS Marion, from Mannum, and the Oscar W, from Goolwa. The magnificent flotilla will make its way to Mildura for the PS Melbourne’s 100th anniversary celebrations on September 9. Friends of the PS Industry chairman David Nattrass said Riverlanders are in for a rare sight on the riverfront on Tuesday morning. “I think it will be a very historic moment that hasn’t happened in Renmark for 70, 80 to 100 years,” he said. “We’re very pleased to be able to go back to Mildura and support the PS Melbourne in its centenary. “The PV Amphibious will be joining us, as will many other vessels along the way. “It will be a gathering of vessels from Echuca to Goolwa, which is probably the first in 100 years that there has been so many steam powered heritage vessels in the one place at one time.” The PS Industry is giving locals the opportunity to follow the vessel with day cruises during the trip. Mr Nattrass said volunteers have been working overtime to prepare the vessel for the journey. “The volunteers really look forward to an outing of this
length,” he said. “Unfortunately the accommodation on the vessel was limited to 15 because of the galley size and the bedding because it is not able to have overnight sleeping paying passengers. “It was really difficult to make the roster to try and accommodate everyone.” Due to river etiquette, the PS Industry is offering 60 tonnes of wood to the woodfire vessels when they prepare to leave from Renmark.
THE Renmark Paringa Tourism Association is seeking committee members to secure its future after failing to reach a quorum at its Annual General Meeting last week. Another meeting is expected to be held in the coming week with
hope of obtaining enough numbers to vote in a committee and a new chairperson. Michael Schuetze, who is hoping to drum up support for the group, said there was five or six people at the AGM. “It has been left to
Find us on Facebook Anglican Community Care Inc | ABN 53 440 436 445 | Charity Licence CCP1186
probably five or six to chase around to see if we can form a committee then elect officers,” he said. Mr Schuetze said continuing the Rennmark Paringa Tourism Association is important at this present time. “Until everyone is
aware of exactly what is happening (with Destination Riverland), it is not a bad thing for it to be there,” he said. If you are interesting in joining the association, contact Michael on 0412 733 427.
Explanation needed over pest plant and animal control funding cuts FAMILY FIRST MLC Robert Brokenshire is asking for a please explain from the State Government after it was revealed that funding for pest plant and animal control in the Riverland area has been reduced from $90,000 in 2010/11 to $29,500 in the current financial year. Mr Brokenshire visited the region last week
where he spoke to local growers and key stakeholders about the issue after it was discovered under a Freedom of Information request to the South Australian Murray Darling Basin Natural Resources Management Board. With the reduction in funding, Mr Brokenshire said rabbit control in the Pike River and Lake Bonney areas may be

difficult to control. “I want to challenge the government to the cut of pest, plant control and pest animal control in the Riverland,” he said. “That’s pretty concerning when there are demands on farmers to actually control their weeds and pest animals and you’ve got LAP volunteers working hard and the government basically being hypocritical
and neglecting government owned land. “There is a much higher risk of an increase in pest weeds and pest animals that is going to make it more difficult for general land owners to look after their land.” Mr Brokenshire said his visit also included discussion and meetings on agriculture, horticulture and infrastructure.

VIC remains on riverfront ■ From Page 1 Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour said he felt the correct decision was made. “There was considerable discussion and there were points for and against and a decision was put forward,” he said. “There were several members of the public in the gallery last night and there didn’t seem to be a negative reaction to the decision that was made.” Council cited traffic man-
agement issues, the ideal location the centre is currently in and the potential to lose considerable volunteer numbers as the major reasons it decided to keep the tourism facility at its current location. A $5000 feasibility study completed earlier in the year stated the move as a key recommendation. Mr Siviour rejected claims the study was a waste of money and said instead it helped point out improvements needed in the district. “The feasibility didn’t just focus on the VIC, it also fo-
cused on tourism promotion and I think the council has got a far better awareness now that it is not just about the VIC and where it is situated, it is also about us using different methods to basically sell our region,” he said. Other recommendations passed during Tuesday’s meeting included establishing more tourism precincts across the district, publishing of four additional products for tourists and supporting four different local groups to become online bookable within the next six months.
Renmark LAP becomes council committee THE Renmark to the Border Local Action Planning Association is embarking on a new era after it was resolved during Tuesday night’s Renmark Paringa Council meeting that the group would
become a committee of council. Council is now seeking expressions of interest in being a member of the inaugural committee which will consist of a nominated chair, seven in-
dependent members and one elected member of council. Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour said there will be many benefits to the decision.
“Obviously we wouldn’t have done it without seeing some tangible benefits for the community in terms of environmental projects and how they are delivered,” he said.

Wine and Food Festival’s economic footprint THE Riverland Wine and Food Festival is working with the Adelaide University at this year’s event in October to assess the economic impact the attraction has on the region. Surveys will be conducted on behalf of the Riverland Wine and Food Festival Committee to gather data from the event to then be analysed at Adelaide University. Riverland Wine and Food Festival acting event manager Sue Whitbourne said the data can be used for the region’s benefit. “It’s a document that is going to actually show what impact the festival has on the region,” she said. “It could be used for future planning, it could be used for future funding opportunities, it could be used for attracting future sponsors and to
those people who currently support and finance the event, it underpins where their money is going and what it is doing for the region.” Mrs Whitbourne said this year’s Riverland Wine and Food Festival will also be marketed differently. “We are trying some new marketing strategies this year to really try and boost our families and friends market,” she said. “We know a lot of people in the Riverland love to come along, what we are going to be asking them to do in the next few weeks is invite their family and friends from outside the region to come up to the Riverland.” Just days prior to the event, organisers of the festival will use the Adelaide Farmer’s Market to attract visitors to the region.
Up to 2000 people are expected to attend the event, which runs over four days incorporating Nippy’s Chefs of the Murray dinner, Friday WINE Up, Sunday WINE Down and the main event on the Berri riverfront on October 20. “The expansion of our program is very promising and it just shows that it is well positioned in the market and people want to be involved so it keeps growing,” Mrs Whitebourne said. “All of the events and festivals have to have something that makes them unique and different. “What we tried to do with ours is incorporate riverside venues and really celebrate wine, food and the Murray River.” Tickets for the main riverfront event are already on sale.

Riverland calendar launch
Waikerie High School teacher and SSO named amongst state’s best
Teacher’s just rewards ■ The sixth Images of the Riverland calendar. WHEN the idea was put forth to produce a Riverland calendar to raise money towards a bus for St Catherine’s in 2007, those involved never knew how popular it would become. Tomorrow night the sixth Images of the Riverland calendar will be launched, showcasing stunning photographs from a houseboat on the River Murray to a royal spoonbill at Katarapko Island. The calendar is an initiative of the Lions Club of Berri with funds from its sale going towards major projects around the Riverland. To date the club has donated a 12 seater bus, plus ancillary equipment, to the St Catherines Home for the Aged and an ultrasound unit to the birthing department at the Riverland Regional Hospital. Last year’s calendar sold out and was posted across the world, according to Lions Club of Berri representative Terry Kearney. “Going forward, I think we’ll sell more and more calendars and get bigger dollars and if that all comes back into the Riverland for whatever purpose, it would be magnificent,” he said. Mr Kearney said the calendar has had overwhelming support over the years from photographer Italo Vardaro, printer Bill Vlemmix and a number of businesses that provide sponsorship. “We’re in a pretty unique situation here and if it wasn’t for the people of the Riverland, it would never have happened,” Mr Kearney said. The sixth Images of the Riverland calendar will be officially launched at the Berri Golf Club tavern at 5.30pm tomorrow by local doctor John Dunn.
I’m just so happy that someone has taken an interest in how I teach.
■ WINNERS: Waikerie High School teacher Sarah Knott (left) and SSO Laurena Grieger were recognised as part of the public teaching awards. Photo: BRAD PERRY FIRST YEAR Waikerie High School teacher Sarah Knott could not believe the news when she was this week told she had been acknowledged on a regional level as part of the 2012 Public Teacher Awards. Miss Knott was recognised as the winner of the Murray and Mallee Inspirational Early Career Teacher but was not alone with Waikerie High School School Services Officer Laurena Grieger also a category award winner. Mrs Grieger was named the
Murray and Mallee winner in the Excellent School Support Staff Member category. The pair were part of 69 regional finalists from a list of 1700 nominations across South Australia for the public teaching awards. Being her first year in teaching, Miss Knott said the award win will benefit her in the future. It was also fitting that she received the news on Monday from her mother, who is also a teacher. “I was so excited when mum
called up in the morning and said you’ve won the award,” she said. “I’m just so happy that someone has taken an interest in how I teach. “I really make sure in my classroom that I have a really good relationship with my kids, I find that’s key in teaching. “I think this (win) will completely boost my opportunities.” Mrs Grieger, who describes herself as a lab technician, has been working at Waikerie High School for almost a de-
cade and said she is thrilled to be acknowledged. The former Waikerie High School student said she was very surprised and shocked to be recognised for her efforts at such a high level. “I really think this award is for all of us, not just me personally,” she said. The pair will now be in the running as state finalists in their categories, with the announcement of the winners on World Teacher’s Day on October 5.
Calls for permanent Blanchetown quarantine station
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.
MEMBER for Chaffey Tim Whetstone has called on the State Government to investigate the possibility of a permanent quarantine station at Blanchetown. The call comes after Riverland and South Australia face the prospect of being the only part of mainland Australia where fruit fly is not endemic following the abandonment of fruit fly eradication efforts in New South Wales and Victoria. The Opposition has called on the State Government to guarantee it will eradicate any future fruit fly outbreaks in the Riverland. Shadow Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries Adrian Pederick said food
producers needed a firm commitment on biosecurity. “We have a government which seems very keen to inflict biosecurity fees on farmers, yet where is the Weatherill Labor Government’s commitment to biosecurity in this state?” Mr Pederick said. “Minister Gago needs to have strict management controls in place in order to protect the $1 billion generated in SA by fruit and other crops that could be decimated by the real threat of a fruit fly outbreak.” Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the Riverland could soon find itself under siege from fruit fly. “We’ve already seen the NSW government put up the white flag on fruit fly outbreaks in quarantine areas, and now we hear the Victorian government is reducing its eradication efforts due to a lack of funding,” Mr Whetstone said. “ T h i s MOZART’S DON GIOVANNI substantially increases the at the Chaffey Theatre, SEPTEMBER 4, at 7.30pm risk to the Riverland and South Simply be ONE of the first Australia. “Minister Two callers to WIN Gago must make an ironclad commitPHONE 8582 5500 ment to food AT 12 NOON ON producers in FRIDAY AUGUST 31 the Riverland that her govNo early callers please

ernment won’t allow this to happen here should the region experience a series of outbreaks like those which occurred in NSW and Victoria in 2010-11. “The Riverland’s fruit fly free status has suddenly become a great deal more valuable and must be maintained at all costs. “In addition to maintaining the permanent quarantine station at Yamba 24 hours a day, Labor must ramp up community awareness efforts and increase random roadblocks. “The government must also investigate long-term strategies like large-scale sterile insect programs and the possibility of a permanent quarantine station at Blanchetown. “Above all, if Labor is serious about its commitment that South Australia’s food industry will contribute $20 billion to the state’s economy by 2020, it has to re-invest in primary industries and biosecurity funding, and cease its efforts to recover these costs from struggling farmers. “Effective biosecurity benefits every South Australian, not just farmers.”

New cemetery signage provides link to veterans ■ PREPARING: (From left) Year of the Farmer parade drivers Adrian Reimann, Ken Jaeschke and co-ordinator Peter Magarey with a harvester which was the first of its kind in the world.
Stepping back in time LOXTON will take a step back in time on Saturday when it hosts an agricultural machinery parade as part of Australian Year of the Farmer celebrations. Showcasing the life of the Riverland and Mallee’s early settlers, a parade of agricultural machinery, tractors, equipment and vehicles will travel through the main street of Loxton from 10am. In the evening, a Farmer’s Family Dinner and Concert at the Loxton Peace Hall serving a menu of Riverland produce is expected to be a highlight. Of the major drawcards for the parade is the world’s first machine grape harvester sourced from Mildura, a Lanz Bulldog tractor, sunshine stripper harvester and a 1912
Dennis truck. Event co-ordinator Peter Magarey believes the event will be a first for South Australia. “I don’t think there has been a similar event ever held in our knowledge of the history with broadacre and horticulture together presenting each of the aspects,” he said. “I think this is probably near unique to the region and probably to rural South Australia. “So it is a wonderful privilege we have got in Loxton to be able to host an event like this with some very significant machinery in it. “We thought let’s not just have trucks and tractors, let’s have agricultural machinery, so it is a progression through time.” South Australian Premier
Jay Weatherill will open the parade, which will travel up and down East Terrace in Loxton before forming a static display until 2pm. The parade will be followed by the dinner and concert, where a dessert baking competition will also take place. Other highlights of the day will be the opportunity to steam on the PS Marion, a chance to look around the Loxton Historical Village and the official opening of the Loxton Centenary Feature at 12pm. The event is hosted by the Loxton Old Machinery Group and the Loxton Mardi Gras Committee in conjunction with the Loxton Historical Village, with proceeds going to the Loxton Mardi Gras Committee.
NEW signage at cemeteries in Renmark, Paringa and Lyrup was officially opened last week. Funded by an Anzac Day Commemoration Council grant, the project involved a number of local people and organisations helping to identify buried war veterans and provide a map of each cemetery. Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson is encouraging people to visit the cemeteries and see the results. “It just gives an opportunity for people to come out to the cemetery, they can look at the names that are on the cemetery itself and they can also see the returned service people that have deceased and that is recognised with a little poppy alongside the respective names,” he said. “It’s something that we want the community to come out and check if there are poppies that have been missing on people’s names and we want them to contact the office so we can update that.” Renmark RSL Club member and historian David Coombs was involved in the project and said there is still lots of work to do in a bid to identify the 4600 estimated war veterans buried in the
district’s cemeteries. “There are so many unmarked graves and I think the fact there is a map with the grave number and the section number just makes it so much easier to find graves,” he said. The project was initially instigated through two Renmark Girl Guides, who sought to identify lost war veterans. “They first found 100 names and the project has just grown from there,” Renmark Girl Guides unit leader Bronwyn McDonald said. “The girls were doing it as part of their Queen’s

Students’ cardboard box sleepout THE RIVERLAND Catholic Primary Schools’ Cardboard Box Sleep Out will take place tomorrow. Students from Our Lady of the River, Berri, St. Joseph’s Renmark, St. Albert’s Loxton and St. Joseph’s Barmera are invovled in the initiative. The year seven Mini Vinnies will be sleeping in a cardboard box in Our Lady of the River School Hall. The Mini Vinnies is a program of the St Vincent de
Paul Society involving upper primary school children who look at social justice issues, discuss ways that they can help to make a difference in the lives of people who are less fortunate and then try and implement their ideas. The evening commences at 6pm with the children making a bed from cardboard, which has been donated by Visyboard. Father Steve Ardill will then undertake a short litur-
gy before the children have a sausage/hamburger sizzle. At 7.30pm Brett Blackwell from the Salvation Army will talk to the students about his role supporting homeless people in the Riverland. This will be followed by the students watching a movie about homelessness before retiring for the night to sleep in their cardboard bed. All the money raised will go to the St. Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal.

RONCO MOTORS AND NEW HOLLAND MILESTONE Ronco Motors
Ronco Motors celebrates 50 years with New Holland F OR half a century Pinnaroo based Ronco Motors has been associated with machinery franchise New Holland. Celebrating the milestone, the Mallee family business is proud of the long running partnership, which came to fruition thanks to Ronco Motors co-founder Bert Bailey. Ronco Motors commenced operations as a family business from its current premises on Railway Terrace South. It was founder and mechanic Bert who recognised the potential for the business in the Mallee and established an operation to service farming equipment from the area. With the business quickly gaining a reputation for top customer service and good quality workmanship, Bert was successful in gaining the New Holland Franchise in 1962. Through the franchise, Ronco Motors began selling the New Holland range, as well as used agricultural equipment. In 1964, Bert’s son Rod Bailey became involved with servicing the machinery and progressively found himself working in all aspects of the business. Bert retired in 1973 and Rod and Colleen Bailey took over the running of Ronco Motors with the operation steadily growing into a well regarded operation in the Mallee. Roydn Bailey joined the business as a mechanic in 1986 and like his father Rod, started to work in every area, eventually taking over as dealer principal in 2005 with his wife Louise. Upon reaching the milestone,
Roydn said the business would like to thank valued customers for the support over the years. “We are very proud of getting to this point and we need to recognise the local farmers who have continually supported our business,” he said. Roydn said there has been significant changes to the industry and how Ronco Motors has grown and expanded to meet demand. “The premises have changed a lot,” he said. “We’ve seen the business go from mainly livestock and cereal to the addition of horticulture and other farming methods.” Through the New Holland franchise the Pinnaroo business began selling hay machinery and later introduced harvesters and tractors. Ronco Motors is a major employer in Pinnaroo and Roydn said the business supports the town and the Mallee. “We are one of the last fully owned and locally run businesses,” he said. While Rod, who has retired, still spends plenty of time at Ronco Motors, Roydn’s son Lachlan, who is currently doing a school based apprenticeship as a diesel mechanic, will start full time later in the year. “We are hoping he will continue on in our footsteps as the fourth generation at Ronco Motors,” Roydn said. Ronco Motors celebrated the 50 year partnership with New Holland by hosting a gathering of 150 people, including clients and company representatives, at the business last week.

FATHER’S DAY
FEATURE
Olivewood’s Father’s Day fair RENMARK based Olivewood will be holding an important fundraiser when it hosts a country fair on Father’s Day this Sunday. The event will feature a huge collection of displays from rabbit traps to cameras and agricultural implements from the past and a large number of artisans showing their skills. The day will see over a hundred classic and vintage vehicles lined up along the avenue of palms, as well as a large display of motorbikes, tractors and stationary engines. Olivewood’s new shed, or as it is known the Charles Chaffey Centre, will house numerous theme displays showing past heritage. It will be the very first time Olivewood’s printing display will enable visitors to view a working printing press and a very old map of Renmark will be printed. Of special interest will be a display of clocks with a repairer on site. It will also be the first time the fire brigade display may be seen. Entertainment on the day will include the Riverland Brass Band and numerous other musicians and vocal items and dancers. Those in attendance can take advantage of a wide variety of food and drink stalls including real bush tucker (rabbit and kangaroo tail stew and damper) prepared by well known gourmet bush cook, Paul Hansen. For the children there will be a large display of unusual animals including a crocodile. The fair begins at 10am and finishes at 4pm. Olivewood caretaker Brian Lock said it is a unique day. “It’s a bit of a father’s theme because we’ve got collections of tractors and stationary engines,� he said.

Tony, who owns Loveday 4x4 Adventure Park, describes 14-year-old Toby as a “mini me�. “We’re both like minded,� he said. “We’re building the park together now, although he still at school but he’s still a huge part of it.� From a young age on the farm, Tony said Toby became involved in vehicles and like him, has grown a passion for it. “At the age of four or five years old he was driving around on the farm and doing all those sorts of things,� Tony said. “As we got going with the park, he was in there getting involved and being part of it. “We’re always looking to take something to the next level and Toby’s got that natural engineering skill where he can look at something and work out how it works.� Tony and Toby has been performing challenging stunts at 4x4 shows across Australia and also at home in the Riverland and Tony said he is more than proud of his son.

The most comprehensive football previews in the Riverland and Mallee
Armchair Experts RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS PRELIMINARY FINAL interesting to see if Ramco again puts a shut down role on the quick wingman. Andrew Lloyd is a consistent performer and his ability to read the ball may make a match-up with Matthews very intriguing. Max Baddack is a huge problem for the Swans, as he is so versatile. While Jono Wood has been playing further up the ground, his leg speed may be an option to run with Baddack, otherwise Roy Grenfell may be the go-to defender. At the other end, Dean Hill will make the Roosters pay if he is given any space. After notching up 200 games on the weekend, Kym Thiel is a candidate for the role on Hill. The move to drop Chris Gardner deep into the forward line has paid off and he will need to be closely watched, while opportunist Mark McDonald should get the attention of John Clohesy. While this match could easily be a shoot-out given the forwards of both teams, we feel this we be a scrappy affair with Paringa and Ramco playing a spare man in defence.
Paringa v Ramco MINOR premier Paringa would not have expected to be playing in a do or die match to make the grand final. After losing to BSR in the semi-final, Paringa will now have to dig a little deeper against a tough opponent at East Murray. Ramco breezed through to the preliminary final after easily accounting for Cobdogla by 71 points. The two teams matchup pretty closely and both coaches are keeping their game plans close to their chests. Ramco’s midfield has been dominant throughout the season, led by ruckman Jamie O’Callaghan. He may be up against Nathan Rover, who was impressive in ruck on the weekend. On the ground, Bryce Matthews, Marcus Mcgrath and Daniel Donelly have had first hands on the football. For Paringa, Tristan Jackson has been tagged in recent weeks and it will be

Karoonda v Lameroo &;
RESERVES
AFTER being convincingly beaten by BDT in the final minor round and the second semi-final, Karoondaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confidence would have certainly been dented. Lameroo will have fresh legs given it has had the week off and that may be an advantage. On top of the week off, the Hawks possibly put up their best performance of the season to beat Murrayville in the first semi-final. Karoonda will be hoping Josh Rudiger and Luke Hocking will return this
round to add some much needed firepower. The midfield gets a mention just about every week but it is all on the line in this final with the winner going on to meet BDT in the grand final. Mark Corrie, Corey Knight, Zakk Bullard and Ben Quinn will need to be at the top of their games. Shaun Walker, Andrew Purchase and Hayden Thorpe will be in the midfield for Lameroo. The likes of Ricky Hunter, Vaughan Noonan and Dan Wohling are all capable goalkickers for the Hawks but they will have to shake off a resolute defence of Andrew Smithson, Daniel
Thiele, Jarred Graetz, Brodie Chinner, Eli Koch and Josh Rosenzweig. Kym Benham will be an advantage in the ruck for Lameroo, while Karoondaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defence is also strong led by Brad Zerk, David Philbey, Billy McNeilly and Matt Ridgway. The Magpies have really struggled to find a strong marking target with their leading goal kickers being Knight on 42 and injured Hocking on 35. On the other hand, Lameroo is dangerous with Shane Agelis on 55 goals. Karoonda is hurting but will put in a spirited performance to beat Lameroo in a close one.

RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE FIRST SEMI-FINAL
SECOND SEMI-FINAL
BarmeraMonash v Waikerie THE top two teams meet once again but this time there is a lot more to play for. Whichever team claims victory on Saturday will gain a week off and a spot in the 2012 grand final. Pressure is mounting on both teams with Barmera-Monash without a premiership for the past 23 years, while Waikerie will be hoping to make up for last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand final loss. The Roos finished minor premier but that will mean little going into this contest at Berri. Both coaches have outlined the importance of a win. Roosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach Lyndon Burns said his team is hungry for a premiership. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember winning the minor premiership and going straight into the grand final,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;23 years is a long time
without a premiership. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone wants to stand up and put this club back on the map. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just want these boys to have a taste of it.â&#x20AC;? Waikerie co-coach Craig Griffiths said the semi-final build-up has the players excited. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been looking forward to this one for quite a while,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You never get a grand final back but we are hoping we have learnt a bit more since last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal was to make the top two and in Riverland footy, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much easier being in that position.â&#x20AC;? Barmera-Monash will include Mal Greenwood, Murray Middleton and Luke Chamberlain back into this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team, while Jake Schwertferger is doubtful with a hamstring injury. For Waikerie, Craig Miller will return, while the club is hopeful Andrew Bachmann will play. The midfield contest could be the deciding factor in this match. The likes of Dillon Millard, Ryan Burns and Sam
Elliott will take on Tim Bevan, Damian Stevens and Michael Bratton. Stevens and Greenwood may even run side by side. With Chamberlain back, Tyler Baldock should return to centre half forward and Steven Braun has that role on the elusive forward. Michael Smart has been in outstanding form but will be challenged by young Joseph Haines. Burns said he has been pleased with Marc Elliottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finish to the season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is back to his best form, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more dangerous around goals,â&#x20AC;? Burns said. Ben Venning could also be a problem for the Roos and Aaron Manning is capable of putting the brakes on the big manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scoring. There is lots of respect between these two teams but the passion for the club will be number one in this final. The Magpies were the only team to beat the Roos in the minor round but the Roos should be too strong in an entertaining contest.
Hankin may be matched by Josh Voigt, while Ryan Proud will start in the midfield and may move closer to goal dependent on the Pantherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success up forward. Ryan Porter and Lachie Jennings are too other smart forwards Loxton North will need to be aware of. The Panther midfield has been underrated this season with Michael Scott, Jamie Ferguson and Ryan Proud to line-up on Adam Beauchamp, Peter Safralidis and Clint Ridgway. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s officials, players and supporters are looking forward to the challenge this weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a bit of excitement around that we have made the finals,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve beaten them on their home turf but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve beaten us twice as well.â&#x20AC;? The return of Dan Proud last match, although nowhere near full fitness, has boosted the confidence of the team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just having him out there makes the boys walk taller,â&#x20AC;? Wooldridge said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having an extra dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s break because we are playing on Sunday wil do him the
Berri v Loxton North IT was unlikely that Loxton North would still be in the hunt for back-to-back flags after needing to beat Waikerie in the final minor round. Against the odds, the Panthers played arguably their best match for the season, turning a half time deficit into a match winning lead. Up against Berri, the Panthers will be confident given that they have beaten the Demons this season. However, Berri has been in good form with the return of several key players. Again, both teams match up very similar for this contest at Barmera Oval. Loxton North will be without Ryan Gray, who sustained an injury late in the match against Waikerie. Berriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury list long but players such as Nathan Geyer, who has missed a number of games this season, are back to their best. The gamebreakers will be David Hankin for Berri and Ryan Proud for Loxton North after both booted high goal tallies last round.
world of good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done a fair bit of work to get back.â&#x20AC;? Loxton North is capable of beating Berri but it will need to be at its best. However, we think the Demons will be too strong and book themselves a spot in the all important preliminary final.
â&#x2013; CRUCIAL: Berri midfielder Adam Beauchamp will be a key player against Loxton North.
THE DUTHIE MEDAL THE RIVERLAND Independent football competition best and fairest will be crowned with the Howard Duthie Medal on Monday night. Throughout the season there has been a number of stand-out players. However, favourite to win the medal is Blanchetown/Swan Reach midfielder Troy Cowland (pictured) who not only booted 51 goals but racked up numerous possessions. The only way Cowland will not poll as well as predicted is if fellow midfielder and previous Duthie Medalist Dale Payne attracted more votes. Other players that will be around the mark include Ramco ruckman Jamie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Callaghan,
East Murray ball magnet Chris Rudiger and potentially Cobodoglaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anthony Thompson. Darkhorses include Lyrupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ken Karpany, who may be let down by his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win/loss record, Paringaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tristan Jackson and Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Geordie Franks.

RFL B GRADE FINALS THE FINAL minor round decided fourth position on the ladder in B grade football with Berri defeating Loxton to claim a finals berth. Despite just one more loss than Berri and on equal wins with Loxton North, Loxton finished wooden spooners. In the second semifinal at Berri on Saturday, Waikerie will take on Barmera-Monash in an important game for the Roos. Without a loss so far this season, Waikerie has been more than dominant and should win this contest and go straight into the grand final. It is up to Barmera-Monash to show it can keep up with
Duthie Medal odds:
the reigning premier. It is all class for Waikerie with Steve Leibich, Shayne Stevens and Joel Fladrich all playing well. Steve Hefford and Michael Beelitz will be hard to contain around goals. For the Roos, ever reliable Dave Whitbourne continues to lead his team, while Callum Buchecker has shown promising signs. The first semi-final at Barmera on Sunday should see Renmark defeat Berri. The Rovers through Dale Lellmann, Aaron Gill and Paul Burne are in good touch, while Berri will need Sam Atkins and Rory Corell firing.

Renmark into final in nailbiter ■ IF PROOF was ever needed that finals are a different game, it was certainly confirmed by last Friday night’s A1 netball second semi-final. Loxton went within a bee’s whisker of upsetting defending champion and 2012 minor premier Renmark after it had not got within a bull’s roar of it’s traditional rival during this season’s minor round matches. To it’s credit though, Renmark won in a nailbiter, 39-38, and with direct entry into the grand final, it now has the inside running for back-to-back titles. Friday night’s clash was not all that pretty but even the purists would have enjoyed the intense pressure that both sides exerted on opponents right across the court. There were some classical individual clashes, Kerri Turk versus Eve Will and Denika Gartery against Jackie Dahlitz, while for Renmark in-form goal shooter Anita Modlinski played a big part in her side’s victory. Renmark led by three goals at quarter time, one at the half time break and scores were level at the last change before the combatants slugged it out goal for goal in the final term. As far as Loxton was concerned,

But they lost and now have much work to do to win Friday night’s preliminary final against an impressive Berri to gain another crack at Renmark for the title. Berri won the knockout first semi-final against Barmera 63-46 in a clash that had more polish and high scoring than the second-semi pressure cooker. Berri dominated the first half
in particular, with defenders Tori Brown and Kara Henry defiant, Taylee Howard really on goal shooting target and Ellee Eleftheriadis and Carolyn Martin and Kimberley Wade brilliant in the midfield. Thereafter Barmera, with Mackella Armfield and Cobie Drogemuller showing the way, actually outscored Berri by four goals but a huge deficit at half time left far too much to do. By being the only team to beat Renmark in 2012, Berri has shown that its best is good enough. Friday night’s A2 matches
Close contests in hockey finals ■ From Page 28 ■ AGAINST Berri, youngster Zac Schubert added five senior goals to the five goals he had scored earlier in an under 18 game and with Tim Smith and Karl Hennig, was in the outstanding players. In the first semi-final, Renmark will start favourite against Berri but substantial losses last time out to both sides is hardly the ideal preparation. Stephen Cresp, Aden Shaw, Lincoln Matulin (Renmark) and Dylan Couzner, Roly Bevis, Tony Halupka (Berri) were the form players entering the major round. If ever there could be a draw in these finals matches Renmark against Loxton in A women could produce it. It would not be the first time in 2012. But Renmark also hardly had a perfect preparation last weekend when it went down 3-0 to Waikerie despite outstanding games from Rebecca Keynes, Lisa Hartavis and Ally Giles. Loxton, on the other hand, was back to something like its effi-

ring got back to some of its mid season form in beating Renmark, while despite having its late season momentum interrupted by Loxton, Berri still had players like Jane Hustler, Jen Kiel and Kira McMahon in good form. Hockey 2012 has produced regular surpise results and it would be a sound bet that there are still more to come. Friday night the knockout A grade first semi-finals will be held, the women’s game at 7pm between Berri and Waikerie and the men’s at 8.40pm between Renmark and Berri. On Saturday a full day of finals action starts at 8.50am with under 12s and concludes with A grade second sem- finals, Renmark versus Loxton in the Women at 4.50pm and Waikerie versus Loxton in the Men at 6.20pm. Minor premierships and positions in the four are more important than they might appear for these matches as in the case of tied scores there is no extra time played but it is the team placed highest on the ladder that advances. The topsy turvy nature of season 2012 gives every indication that some scores could be level at the final whistle.
made it an amazing night of finals action. Loxton (Lauren Benson, Mel Loxton) ended the season for Waikerie (Ash Porter, Carlyn Pearson) 42-40 in the first semi-final and in the second semi-final Loxton North (Lisa Koehne, Karina Tschirpig) made it to the premiership game by winning 49-48 over Renmark (Kylie Wilksch, Kelly Nelson). Renmark meets Loxton on preliminary final night on Friday at the Loxton stadium in the A2 competition. For the netball fraternity it will be back to Loxton on Saturday night for the annual presentation function at the Loxton Sporting Club. As usual, finding a likely winner of the Best and Fairest Award is a real task as the umpires who give the votes and club officials who issue names each week often seem to have been at different games. Repeatedly, we have ignored Renmark players because of the depth of talent only for Leanne Menz to prove us wrong but the champion defender has not been there in 2012. Kerri Turk, Denika Gartery and Menz’s replacement Hannah Foody have been there though and have had consistent seasons. For Loxton, the experienced

Jackie Dahlitz has seldom missed the best player lists and Hollie Bullock and Alysha Proud have featured regularly, while amongst the talent at Berri Ellee Eleftheriadis, Nicole Hall and Taylee Howard have been prominent. For the rebuilding clubs Barmera and Loxton North, we have regularly seen Cobie Drogemuller, Katie Saville and Sheri Beech and juniors Marlee George, Erika Sporn and Jordan Jachmann acknowledged.
Haynes remains at top of speedway committee ■ THE RIVERLAND Speedway Club had its best season for a decade or so in 2011/12 both on the track and financially but a settled administration is looking to the approaching summer with an attitude of not resting on its laurels. In 2011/12, car entries were up across the classes and so provided excellent entertainment for increasing numbers of spectators, membership grew with people joining from as far away as Adelaide and as a result, the club received an overall welcome financial boost after some unexpected costs had been incurred. The holding of a round of the inaugural Sidecar Spectacular at the track proved invaluable and it is great news that the event will return this coming season. Greg Haynes continues to head a committee that remains stable in composition, except that Sheryl Menz is the new secretary and Barry Sullivan steps aside and is replaced by Ron Balshaw as vice president. Haynes is also quick to acknowledge the support of a number of people and organisations that have played a big part in turning the fortunes of the club around. These include volunteers, his committee, emergency crews, the local media, sponsors and
local businesses. A big focus in recent times has been on improving facilities at the Calperum Hill complex for everyone involved from drivers to patrons. So far we have seen an improved commentary system with new speakers still to be added prior to 2012/13, a new clubroom canteen is nearing completion including a rangehood, oven/griddle cooker and a new water truck and tank will be ready for the approaching season. Also ground work is in readiness for a concrete slab to hold a new disabled toilet. Meanwhile, canteens operated by the Junior Motor Cycle and Kart Clubs have continued to be upgraded in accordance with council directives, while two Speedway committee members have supervised successful outcomes of assistance in a lot of the work via the Madec Work for the Dole program. Greg Haynes sums it up by saying “the Riverland Speedway has had a great season and improvements, new developments and projects continue to be the main focus”. “We have seen an increase in racing events, spectators and membership, so even in these uncertain times the club is looking at a positive future.”
The benefits of sports tourism

■ I READ an article written by the president of a sporting association in a community recently that used a term that I had not seen before sports tourism. It talked about the value of attracting elite sporting events to a community but emphasized that it was also about hosting training camps, sports carnivals and even sports science type activities. As far as his community was concerned the author claimed it had the infrastructure, climate and position to attract these events but emphasized it was necessary to take stock of all of the region’s strengths and assets. In conclusion, he considered that sport had a very real ability to enhance the region’s tourism but that it required everyone to put their heads together and to work as one to make it happen so that the community could benefit as a whole. Much had been done he said but much more could be achieved. I wonder whether this sports tourism concept could apply in the Riverland?

Loxton breaks losing streak ■ RIVERLAND soccer will play the semi-finals of its Top Four Cup competitions from under 12s to A grade at Barmera this Sunday. A fun day for juniors will be held earlier in the morning. In the A grade men’s semifinals, 2012 premier Berri River Rangers will play Loxton United and Barmera United meets Renmark Olympic. Open womens grade matches will be Renmark versus Berri and Loxton against Barmera. In last Sunday’s final premiership matches for 2012, Renmark put in a spirited effort against Berri. Olympic simply would not go away and the premiers had to work hard throughout to come up with a 7-4 win at the end of a keen contest. Russell Frankel, Chris Miller and goalkeeper James Bucon stood out for the Rangers, while for Renmark Ibby Altundag, Matt Lewan and Daniel Clark made huge contributions to an improved showing from their side. In the other game, Loxton produced a surprise result against Barmera 2-0 with Geordie Franks outstanding for the winner and, along with Riley Stone, producing the team’s two goals. It was Loxton`s first win for the season in 15 matches. In open girls grade there were two draws with Loxton 0-0 against Barmera and premier Renmark 2-2 against Berri. An outstanding contest in the under 16 grade saw Barmera just edge out Loxton 4-3 and in under 12s, Berri Number Two defeated Barmera Number Two 3-2 and
Barmera Number One beat Berri Number One 2-1. Apart from Berri River Rangers being clear winners of the A grade men’s premiership on 43 points from Barmera 25, Renmark 17 and Loxton three points, the open girls title went to Renmark with 33 points followed by Loxton on 21. Dominant premier in under 16’s was Renmark, Barmera won the B grade, and in under 14s, Barmera Number Two finished on 39 points, nine clear of Renmark Number One on 30. In the closest finish of all, in the Under 12s Berri Number Two with 32 points, narrowly finished ahead of Barmera Number One on 31. The Riverland Soccer Association will hold its annual Presentation Dinner at the Greek Hall in Renmark on Friday, September 7. Focusing on junior soccer, Riverland teams did not claim a winner or runner-up trophy at presentations after the recent Junior Country Championships in the South East but RSA President Bill Bucon reported that all of our teams were competitive. Other than the host Western Border Association, Riverland had the most teams competing at the tournament. A highlight of the weekend was the following local players being invited to participate in the 2012 Girls State Talent Identification Championships in September. Claire Weeks, Jasmine Thomas, Kelly Watson, Isabella Zunic, Zanna Fournaros (under 12), Sammy Hauptman, Pamela Pi-
Nickolai wins again, this time on the road ■ A COUPLE of weeks after dominating a competition at his home Loxton range, Kevin Nickolai won the AA grade at a Renmark Berri Field and Game Clay Target Shoot on Sunday. This was a state qualifying event with 33 shooters taking part from local clubs, Adelaide and Melbourne. Some tough targets amongst a generally good set saw scores on the low side but Nickolai shot rounds of 22, 21 and 22 for a winning score of 65/75, followed by Renmark’s Tony Trevorrow with 61/75. A grade went to Renmark’s Steve Markham with 61/75 ahead of Adelaide’s Allan Marden 60/75 and the B grade was decided on a countback with Jeremy Pippos (Loxton) getting the win from Jason Hefford (Renmark) after both
recorded 53/75. On the day, shooters competed for the Wes Fenton Memorial Shield with Craig Jones from Melbourne, who is a Renmark Berri Club member, finishing with a handicap score of 85/75 in the C grade to be the 2012 winner ahead of Pippos and Hefford. He also took out the C grade competition with 52/75 from the runner-up, Adelaide’s Bryan Stokes 46/75. A score of 58/75 gave Richard Dean (Adelaide) a victory in Veterans from another Adelaide visitor in Mike Lane on 51/75, Kate Ball (Adelaide) with 45/75 won the ladies from Jo Brown (Renmark) on 44/75, and Renmark’s Kailan Markham (Renmark) continued to shoot consistently to win the juniors with 52/75 ahead of Mat Redway (Renmark) on 46/75.
pinis, Abbey Wilson, Dalyce Jenner (under 13) and Elif Sen, Jemma Tuhoro and Alissa Knight (under 14). In the girls divisions, the Riverland had teams at under 13 and under 16 level at the championships. The under 13 team ran into tough competition with its best effort getting within a goal of Adelaide Hills 3-2 and the under 16 team lost to Adelaide Hills 2-1, drew with Western Border Red 0-0 and won 1-0 over Western Border Blue and 7-0 against Fleurieu to finish third in a group of five teams. The under 12 boys also finished third amongst seven teams winning 3-1 over Western Border, 2-0 against Whyalla, 6-1 against Sunraysia and drawing 1-1 with Adelaide Hills. Consistently amongst the
best players were D. Soulemezis, E. Gregoric, S. Crouch, A. Zahos and T Kent. The under 13 boys drew against Port Pirie 1-1 and played four close matches in losing to its other opponents with A. Drogemuller, R. Wallace, M. Bristow, C. Lambert and M. Makris performing splendidly. At under 14 level, Riverland defeated Western Border 8-3 and lost two games to Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu by one goal with major contributions from F. Catalano, A. Patton and N. Thomas, while in four outings the under 15s defeated Adelaide Hills 5-2 and drew with Sunraysia 2-2. Better players included J. Ekisa and T. Reinertsen. The under 16s also faced strong opposition but fought hard with a best result being a 1-1 draw against Whyalla.

■ BLANCHETOWN/ Swan Reach colours will certainly be predominant on Independent netball grand final day with its A and B grade teams already booking berths for the day’s program. In last weekend’s second semi-finals, BSR defeated East Murray 47-30 in the A grade and Paringa 36-31 in the B grade. This Saturday, however, it will be Brown’s Well, with both of its teams on show in the preliminary finals after a winning double on first semi-final day. The club kept its season alive with a 43-31 win against Ramco in A grade and a 53-29 victory against East Murray in the B grade. That means this Saturday’s preliminary finals are East Murray versus Brown’s Well in the A grade and Paringa against Brown’s Well in the B grade.

Superdogs at full strength in defeat of Fitzroy ■ THE RIVERLAND Superdogs put on a clinic to entertain the crowd at their annual family day at Lyrup oval on Sunday, fielding a full strength team to defeat Fitzroy Lions 19-16 (130) to 6-4 (28). The home side even put some valuable players into visitors guernseys to help them out in the spirit of the AFL Masters competition but it was all to no avail as the avalanche of Superdogs attacks was irrepressible. With players like Ron Foulds, Rick Frahn, Sid Norton, and Darren Tieste spending some time in Lions’ colours and the Riverland side still winning so convincingly, it is an indication of the talent available amongst local veterans. President Lance Gum was
■ MANNUM’S Carl and Tammy Haby dominated the Wynarka Off Road Enduro in their Pro Buggy setting the weekend up with a win in the Prologue and then going on to take outright honours in the main event. The Waikerie Riverland Club members finished in front of Luke Erceg, Aaron Haby and fellow club members Brad Gallard, James Copeland and Lindsay Foster in the Prologue. But it was a different story for Waikerie Riverland vehicles at the conclusion of the Enduro as Gallard, Copeland and Foster were amongst 14 of the initial 30 cars that did not finish due to mechanical issues. With Carl Haby, the SAORRA 2011 Driver of the Year, placings on the podium were Erceg in second and Ivan Schmocker in third, with Aaron Haby in ninth position. Interest will now focus on the Pines Enduro at Millicent on September 7 to 9, which will be round five of the SA and round three of the Australian Off Road Championships and then to the Sedan Short Course event which will be round five of the SA Multi Club Series on September 15 and 16.
forced to hobble off with a calf injury which gave star ruckman Peter Hoffmann the chance to show how serious the injury that had relegated him to goal umpire for the match really was. Hoffy with itchy feet, jeans and sand shoes joined in the fray in style. Stars for the Superdogs juggernaut were numerous. ‘Busman’ Jones was in and around everything, first gamers Tim Kruger (four goals) and John Minchelli looked like useful recruits, Ken Karpany, ruckman Harris, Peter Aston and Doc Clifford, with five goals, were all major contributors. The last game of the season for the Superdogs will be against Rosewater in Adelaide on Sunday September 9.

WAIKERIE remains firm favourite for the men’s A grade premiership as the finals kick off at Glassey Park this weekend. However, it will have to get past a resurgent Loxton in the second semi-final. Final ladder positions in the A grade competitions after last weekend’s end of the minor rounds were Waikerie, Loxton, Renmark and Berri for the men and Renmark, Loxton, Berri and Waikerie in women’s hockey. In the men’s competi-
tion, Waikerie has had a stellar finish to the season. Last week it warmed up nicely for the business end of 2012 with a 5-1 victory over Renmark with young Caleb Catford, Michael Camilleri and Graeme Bartel the standouts in an extremely even spread of contributors. Loxton also had an impressive 7-0 win over Berri but the reigning premier is the team probably impacted upon most by the availability of its leading players.
