Taking the Liberal approach By LES PEARSON

Among their concerns is the impact of the development of a new city hospital on country health services, including in the Riverland. Photo: LES PEARSON

WITH the state election just over 12 months away, the Liberals have begun their campaign in the Riverland this week. The whole Liberal parliamentary party has spent the past few days scattered across the region working on their policies and meeting with Riverlanders to discuss their issues and plan policies to suit. Liberal leader Martin HamiltonSmith was particularly vocal on the party’s focus while in the region. “For the state of South Australia, the number one issue is water, the number two issue is water and the number three issue is water,� he said. “So it was appropriate to come to the Riverland for this workshop to plot out the year ahead for the State Liberals as we work towards the next election in March next year.� ■Continued Page 5

Major hospital building debate expands, renewing country

FUNDING FEARS

By LES PEARSON

HEATED debate between the State Government and health professionals builds over the proposed building of the $1.7 Marjorie Jackson-Nelson Hospital (MJNH) on the old rail yards near North and West Terrace as opposed to the restoration of the ageing Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH). What appears to be a metropolitan issue has found very real local relevance, with the vocal RAH Action Group claiming the building of the new MJNH has the poten"ERRI 2EGIONAL /FlCE +EALLEY 3TREET "ERRI 3! 0HONE &AX 7AIKERIE 3HOP 7HITE 3TREET 7AIKERIE 3! 0HONE &AX 2ENMARK -URRAY !VENUE 2ENMARK 3! 0HONE &AX ,OXTON %AST 4ERRACE ,OXTON 3! 0HONE &AX

tial to detract from country health funding. RAH Action Group chairman and director of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the RAH James Katsaros warned a financial blowout when building the facility will mean less money for regional health services. “It could have negative fiscal implications on all health service areas,� he said. “Then we will lose money to spend on the Queen Elizabeth (QEH), Royal Adelaide, Modbury,

mental health services, regional health, we’ll all suffer.� Dr Katsaros slammed the idea of such a significant one-off investment of taxpayer’s money in this economic climate. “It seems irresponsible to go down that track in these global financial crisis times.� “The government should rebuild, not relocate.� ■Continued Pages 6 & 7

Help where you can MANY Riverlanders are experiencing the toughest times of their life as the water crisis continues. However, what is being experienced here pales severely when compared to the tragedy in Victoria this week. Whatever support we Riverlanders can provide in this time of need will be greatly appreciated. The number of local appeals already commenced is a fantastic show of support for those over the border.

Please support these appeals in whatever small way you can, every bit helps. On the political front, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd can make or break opinions on his leadership during this sad and emotional time in our history. Just as the previous PM, John Howard, used the Port Arthur massacre to provide a bulwark for his leadership, Mr Rudd can use this tragedy to shore up opinion on his performance.

ROB McLEAN

How to contact us

In many eyes he did not get off to a good start by tying the economic stimulus package into bushfire relief programs. Could we see Mr Rudd launch major legislation to provide a national framework which will ensure tougher penalties for arsonists? Most of us would agree that he should be doing all in his power to install new laws.

Locals lend a hand at bushfire scene By LES PEARSON THOUSANDS of fire fighters and volunteers have braved the conditions of the past week fighting the devastating bushfires in Victoria. Amongst that contingent, a handful of locals have made their way to Victoria to be part of the battle and recovery effort. CFS Region Three officer Ray Jackson said there were four CFS volunteers from the region battling the blazes and while he has not spoken to them directly, they will be keeping officials here updated with progress. Department of Environment and Heritage (DEH) fire officer Brett Stephens is also in Victoria, along with 33 other DEH workers from South Australia and seven from the forestry department. Mr Stephens said the call came in on Monday and he then spent Tuesday travelling to Mebourne before being briefed on his role that evening. While not sure of his role at

THE FIRES that have devastated Victoria have stalled plans to take the issues of frustrated Riverland growers to Canberra. Spurred on by New South Wales Senator Bill Heffernan, growers and irrigators at the Region 5 Murray Darling Basin Association meeting in Berri vowed to take their problems directly to parliament. It now looks as if it could be a number of weeks before their problems may be heard by government officials. Murray Darling Association chairman Les Hill said the meeting held in Berri has helped the growers unite to put their problems together. “Bill Heffernan arranged a delegation to go to Canberra to see the

While we get sweet relief ■THE Riverland’s astonishing heat wave ended with a bang on Saturday with a record temperature of 48.2 recorded in Renmark at 2.04pm. The record temperature surpassed Renmark’s previous record from the Bureau of Meterology of 47.4 degrees on January 31, 1968. Renmark was not only the hottest place in the region on Saturday, eclipsing Lameroo’s 47.6 degrees, but it was also the hottest place in the state. the time, Mr Stephens said the request was for personnel with an A class fitness level, experienced in forestry and dry fire-fighting techniques. SES eastern region commander Scott Turner has made the trek to Victoria, working from the Integrated Emergency Co-ordination Centre (IECC).

For 13 days in a row, from January 26 to Saturday, the region recorded temperatures of 38 degrees or above. Nights have also been restless with the average minimum temperature of 21.2 degrees recorded between this time. The cool change, which brought 85 km/h winds sweeping through the region last Sunday, is expected to hold temperatures under 40 degrees for the next week. Mr Turner has been working there since Tuesday and will stay at the centre assisting with the coordination of the SES resources until Saturday before replacements are brought in to relieve those currently working.

Federal Member for Barker Patrick Secker, who is one of the primary organisers of the group to go to Canberra, said he is hoping a date could be set by the end of the week. “It is important to get the message across to ministers, we will get it through quite forcefully,�

A long way to go, but it is one step closer to a new aged care facility POLICE NEWS FIRE BUG SEVERAL fires occurred early this week in the Riverland, despite temperatures dropping. No damage was caused when a dead tree caught alight near the Berri rodeo grounds. The CFS and Berri police attended the scene on Monday at 10am. It is believed the fire had been deliberately lit and police investigations will continue into the matter. Meanwhile, an accidental fire occurred in the Blanchetown Hotel kitchen on Tuesday, which the CFS was able to contain. A fire also started in the engine bay of a car in Loxton on Saturday afternoon. The vehicle was being moved from under a tree and had not been started for some time when it caught alight, causing about $2000 damage. The MFS attended a tractor fire in Renmark last Friday that caused $10,000 damage.

DRIVING OFFENCES A ST Mary’s man was arrested for drink driving in Blanchetown after he allegedly blew a blood alcohol reading of 0.203 on Tuesday night. The 45 year old was also charged for breach of bail, resisting arrest and property damage. The man has been refused bail and lost his license for 12 months.

St Cath’s purchase new land By BRAD PERRY FOR nearly five years, the board and management of St Catherine’s Nursing Home in Berri has been looking at expanding its aged care facility and yesterday announced the purchase of new land. The Berri Resort Hotel Group has sold St Catherine’s a block of its land at a concessional rate on the western outskirts of Berri and donated $200,000 towards helping to establish a new facility. It means the current St Catherine’s, at Coneybeer Street in Berri, will be sold and over the next five years, the aged care facility will be moved to the new address. The new facility will have 66 rooms in stage one and will progress to more than 100 rooms with stage two and three. St Catherine’s chairperson Sister Helen Duke hopes the facility will be ready by 2012 and said it is important for the aged care facility to expand. “An old part of the building won’t meet the criteria for much longer,� she said. “We need to sell this, rebuild and move the whole facility. “We would never have been able to afford it without them (the Berri Resort Hotel).�

State Liberals touring the region to help build policies

Cabinet visit looks to all region’s issues

“It’s also an opportunity for us to meet and talk to Riverlanders about the big issues.� “We’re already well-advanced on these policies, we’re really here to fine tune and to upgrade.� Mr Hamilton-Smith said the visit will also target ongoing irrigation, transport, health and tourism issues. “Tourism is an important support industry but we’re also getting to grips with the problems the wine industry is facing at a grassroots level, which have a lot to do with our poorer export performance now,� he said. On the transport front, he said the Liberals will be promoting more overtaking lanes on the Sturt Highway and better maintenance of local roads for food producers. “We’ll also be talking about the effect of the declining economy on the Riverland and its families,� Mr Hamilton-Smith said. A reported six local busi-

“That worries me a lot and families up here will need some support and some help,� he said. “There’s a lot of us and we’re getting out there mixing and meeting. “I wanted to send a signal to the people of the Riverland by coming here at the beginning of this year that we care about them and their issues.� It is that country relationship the state opposition is promoting, claiming half its MPs are from the country. “Country issues are rarely far from our discussions,� Mr Hamilton-Smith said. The Liberal leader’s presence in the region is also in support of recently appointed candidate for Chaffey, Tim Whetstone. “There needs to be a fresh start in South Australia. We need to see some renewal and the only way to get that is with a fresh start in Chaffey,� Mr Hamilton-Smith said. “That’s why I’m here supporting Tim.

nesses have closed in Waikerie in the past few months, something that is ringing alarm bells for the Liberal leader.

“If people vote for anyone other than Tim, they will get Mike Rann and more of what’s already happening. “He’s the only pathway to change.� Shadow minister for ageing Isabelle Redmond visited St Catherine’s aged care facility in Berri yesterday, while shadow minister for health Vickie Chapman also spent time visiting Riverland hospitals. The Liberal party will also be meeting with the Riverland Development Co-operation and holding functions at the Berri Resort Hotel, Ruston’s Rose Garden and the Renmark Club while they are in the region. The touring party has also visited Banrock Station and Oxford Landing, as well as carbon farms and other innovative initiatives in the region. Mr Whetstone said the visit has followed an environmental theme. “The environment is something we need to focus on because we do need a healthy river to draw water from,� he said.

Liberals plan to shake up COAG table WATER is high on the political agenda of not only the politicians but the whole region. Liberal leader Martin Hamilton-Smith wants to put his party’s stance across as clearly as possible during his visit to the region. “We clearly need to genuinely refer powers to Canberra,� he said. “What we’ve been sold by Mrs Maywald and the Labor party is a partial referral. “Therefore we don’t really have a strong independent authority in Canberra at all.� According to Mr HamitonSmith, it is this partiality that leaves loopholes in the system wide open for upstream states to utilise. “We have an authority that Mrs Maywald and the Labor party are trying to describe as a strong independent authority but it is responsible to state ministers, it is responsible to a

ministerial council,� he said. “That means that Victoria can veto what’s going on and that’s why the Victorians are building a pipleline from the river to Melbourne and why Queensland is talking about diverting millions and millions of megalitres of water away from the river. “If we had referred our powers to Canberra they wouldn’t

2011, which is modified by state plans.� He also took the time to take a swipe at current River Murray Minister Karlene Maywald and her affiliation with the Labor party. “Karlene Maywald, by her association and coalition with the Labor party, is caught up in Labor’s games and the losers from all of that are the river us-

If we can get a Liberal premier around the COAG table, I’ll put a bomb under it. be decisions for them to make, would they?� It is this proposed lack of authority that has his blood boiling. “It’s a sham we didn’t refer our powers, we don’t have a strong independent authority and therefore we don’t have a strong national plan,� Mr Hamilton-Smith said. “What we’ll have is a plan in

ers,� he said. The common ground all the premiers share around the COAG (Council of Australian Governments) table is that they are all Labor, something Mr Hamilton-Smith, unsurprisingly, believes has to change. “The only way to get change on the river, to get a fresh start on the river, is to have a River

Murray Premier around the COAG (Council of Australian Governments) table.â€? “At the moment you have Labor premiers ‌ with Kevin Rudd chairing the meeting.â€? “Not one of them wants to rock the boat and the grand plan is to leave all the water in New South Wales and Victoria.â€? Mr Hamilton Smith is passionate that a Liberal leader needs among discussions. “If we can get a Liberal premier from South Australia around the COAG table, well I can tell you, I’ll put a bomb under it,â€? Mr Hamilton-Smith said. “There won’t be these cosy little handheld meetings after the COAG saying we’ve made an historic agreement. “If I don’t like the historic agreement, I’ll be making it clear to people because I think there have been some cosy deals done behind the COAG door and Mike Rann’s just gone along with his Labor colleagues and I’m quite angry about it.â€?

Hospital Debate

Surgeon: Use what’s there ■From Page 1 Health Minister John Hill has quoted the restoration of the RAH at about $2 billion and the new MJNH at $1.7 million, two figures Dr Katsaros is not sold on. “I’m not an expert but figures offered to me by developers say it will go to $3 billion at least,� he said. According to Dr Katsaros, in 2001/2002 a restoration of the RAH was quoted at $200 million and even if it was grossly overstated most recently at $2 billion, it is still well short of the possible $3 billion blowout that he has been quoted for the MJNH. “With less expenditure of tax payers’ money and less risk than building the MJNH, we can rebuild the RAH, the QEH, Modbury and clean up the contaminated MJNH site and restore it to parklands,� he said. “This would be a win, win, win, win for all South Australians.� “This is about the people, not the doctors and it’s a message the government should take a very close look at.�

Hospital Debate Site inappropriate with country need high By LES PEARSON

â– REBUILD: Liberal candidate for Chaffey Tim Whetstone backs the rebuilding of Royal Adelaide.

LIBERAL candidate for Chaffey Tim Whetstone opposes the building of the $1.7 billion Marjorie Jackson-Nelson Hospital (MJNH). He claimed the spending of such money on a new facility on such expensive land was blatant misuse of government money that could be diverted into country health.

The proposed MJNH site is on the old railyards near North and West Terrace, a location Mr Whetstone feels may put unnecessary strain on the health budget. “I just think that to use such a valuable piece of real estate in Adelaide to build a hospital is a waste in these times when we need an upgrade in country health,� Mr Whetstone said. While accepting that the Royal Adelaide Hospital is not up to

scratch, Mr Whetstone felt its location and reputation on a global scale was well worth holding on to. The 15 year timeline quoted to rebuild the RAH has been a major argument for pro-MJNH campaigners but Mr Whetstone felt it would have to be a similar timeframe on a new hospital. “If it takes 15 years to rebuild, how long will it take to build a new one?� he said.

The RAH has long promoted its close relationship with the University of South Australia and the Hanson Research Centre, something that will be lost if the MJNH is built, according to Mr Whetstone. He said given the building is there already, the upgrade just needs to be made to address the issue. “Why reinvent the wheel?� he said.

Maywald: New hospital for all â– NEW FACILITY: Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald believes a RAH rebuild would be long, complicated and expensive.

By LES PEARSON A NEW facility for all South Australians. That is the message Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald is promoting, in support of the proposed building of the $1.7 billion Marjorie Jackson-Nelson Hospital (MJNH) as opposed to the rebuilding of the Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH). Mrs Maywald could not fathom an alternative to building the MJNH, saying that replacing the RAH is simply a raw necessity. “Many country people utilise the services at the RAH and many that have been there recently would understand it’s not up to standard,� she said. While she praised the staff

there, it was the building itself that Mrs Maywald said has to go. Her stance is for a new, modern facility that country

and metropolitan residents can utilise. “I think building a new hospital is the right thing to do for all South Australians,� she said.

As for those fearing a financial blow-out in building costs that will sap funds from country health, Mrs Maywald dismissed the claims. She said a redevelopment of the RAH is more likely to go over budget and having construction teams in the hospital over a 15 year period poses serious health and safety risks that need not be taken. “I think it’s a nonsense argument,� she said “I think we should build a new, state of the art hospital.� “It just makes sense to me.�

Hamilton-Smith slams MJNH plan By LES PEARSON THE Marjorie JacksonNelson Hospital (MJNH) versus Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH) debate rages at all levels right across South Australia, especially at the highest points in state politics. Both major political parties want a new hospital. Liberal leader Martin Hamilton-Smith, who is currently in the Riverland, and his party stand on the side of rebuilding the RAH. “Our hospital would at least save half a billion dollars,� Mr HamiltonSmith said. “That’s money that can then be spent on

country health and doctors and nurses.� He believes the MJNH plan is the way Labor can keep money in Adelaide. “Labor’s plan will see money sucked out of country health and spent in the city,� he said. “Our plan will get money out of Adelaide and into the country regions. “We think it would be much wiser to maintain health services in Waikerie, Renmark and Loxton and continue with hospital boards than to suck the money into the MJNH and require people to go into

town for health care, which is where Labor is heading with this centralised system.� State Health Minister John Hill rejected the RAH plan, claiming the rebuilding of the RAH would take 15 years and

provide any evidence to support those claims and when asked he refused to table any independent research or table any consultants’ reports that support him.� “I think he’s made it up. “When I see the facts, when I What do you think? Email see the evidence, newsdesk@riverlandweekly.com.au I’ll take note but until then, they are unsubstantiated cost $2.2 billion, $500 claims by the minister million more than the in an attempt to support quoted $1.7 million for the unsupportable. “We’re expected to the MJNH. “They are unsub- accept this as some sort stantiated claims made of gospel that it will take by the minister (John this time and cost this Hill),� Mr Hamilton- amount to do it – prove it, I say.� Smith said.

down, he also challenged Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald’s thought processes behind the MJNH concept. “Mrs Maywald supported this by the way, she voted for it, she’s in the Cabinet,â€? Mr Hamilton-Smith said. “Her idea is to take money out of Waikerie, Loxton and so on by winding those hospitals down to GP plus centres and move the money to the MJNH hospital. “That was her idea, she can justify it‌but I would expect the local member of the Riverland to lobby strongly for that money to be spent here, not in town.â€?

■ PLANNING: New Riverland Regional Health Service dieticians Heath Pillen and Chantelle Hislop discuss the new plan to promote healthier lifestyles. Photo: LES PEARSON

Discussing a weighty issue By LES PEARSON THE Riverland has its chance to shape the future health of the region when the Riverland Regional Health Service holds its Healthy Weight Program information and dinner evening next Tuesday. In the wake of healthy weight week in January, senior dietitian Kate Blowes said the evening will help shape the project over the next 18 months. A number of representatives from community groups have already been invited, although the invitation is open and those wanting a say are encouraged to get along to the meeting. “We’re trying to promote the program in the region as an opportunity in the region for the community to get involved,” Ms Blowes said.

“We’ll be asking them for input into what sort of projects they would like worked on as part of Healthy Weight. “Would they like us to focus on the pubs and clubs and making healthier food more available, or work with schools to improve their canteen or work with local councils to make more walkways?” Now boasting a team of four dieticians, with the introduction of two new team members, Riverland Regional Health Service is looking at making a long-term impact with a wider footprint. “We can only see so many clients individually and we’re really pushing for long-term change to the community and the environment,” Ms Blowes said. “The Riverland is no different to any other areas in

South Australia and nationally that our obesity rates are increasing.” Ms Blowes said it comes down to where the community believes the focus needs to be. “We’re looking at making the environment more healthy basically,” she said. The information session and free dinner will be held on Tuesday, February 17, at 6pm, at the Riverland Division of General Practice, 3 Vaughan Court, Vaughan Terrace Berri. “Anyone in the community with an interest basically, we want to come along,” Ms Blowse said. Those interested in attending are encouraged to register their interest with Community Health by 5pm tomorrow.

Power bill warning By LES PEARSON LAMEROO man Theo Godding is issuing a warning to community members regarding possible mistakes on their power bill. In a confusing past few months, Mr Godding has been severely and mistakenly overcharged twice, by two separate power companies. One bill he received for two month’s electricity was

quoted at $622, quite high in comparison to past bills. Mr Godding said he enquired about the situation and was told there was a reading error on his metre and the problem was rectified. Despite this, he changed power companies, yet a month later he received another bill, this time from his new supplier, for one month’s electricity of $1074. Again, he questioned the

billing company regarding the bill and again was told he was mistakenly overcharged and the metre reading was incorrect. The amended bill was only about $70. Mr Godding said his experience has prompted him to warn others, especially those who might not know better, to check their bills. “People need to be warned,” he said.

BIG RIVER Toyota’s Leon Menz has won a prestigious employee of the month award after being nominated by a customer for his outstanding customer service. The monthly award from Mission Australia and 5RM radio is an award Mr Menz said will add nicely to his resume. “I was sort of surprised and shocked, it’s very humbling,” he said. “The idea of the whole concept is great.”

Mr Menz’s manager Sav Sarro said the award showed the overall strength of the business. “It’s a very proud moment to have staff recognised with this type of recognition,” he said. Riverland 5RM’s Vicki Beech encouraged people to nominate those who have provided great service. “We encourage people to nominate if they have had great service, it is nice for them to get an award,” she said.

â– SERVICES CUT: Barmera resident, Rex Bates, posting a letter that will no longer be cleared on weekends at Australia Post boxes. Photo: JANE WILSON

By BRAD PERRY LAST WEEK Barmera resident Rex Bates went to put some mail in his local Australia Post office box and was met with an A4 sign stating that the mail box would no longer be cleared on the weekend. Mr Bates is extremely unhappy that from April 5, the post boxes will no longer be cleared on Sundays. “I think it’s very disappointing,� he said. “If you don’t get your mail posted on Friday, you could still post in on the weekend and get it through quite soon, now you can’t.� Mr Bates believes that the post is normally cleared around 2pm on Sunday and said that if it is affecting the whole region it is a “retrograde step for rural people�. “If you send your mail on the weekend you can get a head start on your mail,� Mr Bates said. “This will be a backward step and I’m not happy mate.� While Mr Bates is fuming over the proposal to stop clearing out mail boxes on the weekend, Australia Post is adamant it will back down from the decision that’s been

made. Australia Post state communications manager Joshua Zugajev said all street post boxes will no longer be cleared on the weekend throughout the Riverland. “It’s simply a behind the scenes thing for us that we don’t need anymore,� he said. “It is only Sunday deliveries that won’t occur.� Mr Zugajev said that taking away the clearing service on the weekend won’t have any impact on the customers and the timing of their mail. “There will certainly be no impact on the customers, so we are just going through the process by putting the ads up and letting everyone know,� he said. He said the weekend clearance of street post office boxes occurs on Sunday but mail is not sent until the following day. Mr Zugajev said that clearing the post boxes was simply to help with Australia Post’s processing and without the weekend clearance, all mail will still be sent at the same time. “It’s just to help our own internal processing schedule,� he said.

Free Hearing Test

“The clearance was above and beyond our schedule process. “With technology we just don’t need that extra clearance any more.� However, Mr Bates said he did not agree with Australia Post and believes the failure to clear mail on weekends will cause disruption. “I think what he is saying is not true,� he said. “If it doesn’t get collected on Sunday, it wouldn’t get sorted until Monday. “We are supportive of Australia Post but cutting back service is not doing anything to enhance their image. “It is already getting the reputation as snail mail.� In today’s society, people are turning to email to communicate and Mr Bates said that Australia Post must clean up its act to persuade people to use the enveloped form. “Australia Post has got lots of competition with email and instead of sharpening up, they are cutting services,� he said. “I don’t give two hoots about the rest of Australia’s services, I just care about the Riverland services.�

Tragedy brings out our best ■THE bushfire tragedy has brought out the charitable best in many Australians, including in the Riverland. Already we are seeing local appeals springing up to raise some funds to help communities across the border get back up off the ground. Anglican Community Care’s Waikerie centre is accepting donations for the appeal. While on Saturday, a sausage sizzle will be held from 9am outside the town’s Big River supermarket to raise funds. Meantime, a picnic will be held on the shores of Lake Bonney this Sunday from midday. Bring your own food and drinks along and enjoy some social activities for a good cause. Donations will also

be collected on the day for the appeal. Renmark’s Apex Club is looking for donations of toiletries, nappies and non-perishable goods. Drop your goods off at Tucker Hall, Renmark Oval, between 5.30 and 7.30 tonight and tomorrow. It also seems that local members of the Mini and Young Vinnies branches of St Vincent de Paul will be collecting at their schools. These are just a sample of the fundraising Riverland people are involved in. If you are organising a fundraising event or appeal of any sort, please contact us at the Riverland Weekly and we will mention you in a register in next week’s newspaper. Support these causes.

■WITH Valentine’s Day approaching on Saturday, at Riverland Headspace the love will be flowing tomorrow. Free chocolate making sessions will be held in the Riverland Division of General Practice Training Room, 4 Vaughan Court, Berri. Session times are 9am to 10.30am, 11am to 12.30pm and 1pm to 2.30pm.

Volunteers are vital to our community and 15 local organisations will feature in an advertising campaign starting on Monday. Organised by local councils, Volunteer Pathways and ‘be active’, the program has received funding which will allow for the purchase of volunteer resources and training. Hopefully the campaign will see more people donating their time as volunteers within our communities.

Volunteer boost

New pastor

■OUR region’s wonderful volunteers will get a boost starting from this Monday, with a campaign advertising just what they do.

■LOXTON’S St Peter’s Lutheran Church has finally had a new pastor appointed after a long search. Pastor Mark Hansen

Sweet tooths wanted

has come on board, moving to the region with his wife and three daughters. An installation service will be held for Pastor Hansen on Sunday, February 22, at 7pm.

Appointment ■ADRIAN Pipe has been appointed the new field officer for Riverland ‘be active’. The role is jointly funded by local councils and promotes activities to increase participation in sport and physical activity. Adrian grew up in Adelaide but was a frequent visitor to the region and has lived in the Riverland since 2005. He will be working in council offices across the Riverland.

Night write starts verse odyssey By BRAD PERRY SITTING in a motel room while her husband slept, Juliana Mullan felt words beginning to fill her mind and began to scribble them down on a torn off piece of a magazine. This is how words come for the talented verse writer whose work will be showcased at the Berri Library from Monday through until the following Tuesday. The exhibition called Experiences, Emotions and Inspirations will present all of Mrs Mullan’s work for everyone to see. “It is my own personal feelings about things and how I connect with the world,� she said. Mrs Mullan began writing two years ago and can still recall the first night the verses began to fill her mind. “I still remember it was October 15 and I woke up around two o’clock in the morning and

â– INSIGHT: Juliana Mullan is looking forward to her exhibition. Photo: BRAD PERRY

I wrote a verse that just came out of my head,� she said. “I got up and scribbled it down and since then I have just had times where I wake up in all hours of the night or the day and

something will come to mind.� Mrs Mullan, who has lived in the Riverland for 22 years, has written more than 150 verses in a range of different categories including her latest inspiration, children’s verse. She currently has her work displayed around the Riverland but her biggest display is at Bev’s Chocolate and More shop in Monash. From here, Mrs Mullan has sold her verses to people from across Australia and the world. “A couple from South Africa came into the shop and bought a verse and asked me if I would autograph it,� she said. “It makes me feel very proud.� For every verse that she sells, Mrs Mullan donates one dollar to various causes. “I donate to different causes (each time) except for Fred Hollows, that is one I have always been inspired by and give to all the time,� she said.

Over the last two years, the verse writer has also written for people who have seen her work and requested that she write a verse for them. “I have actually been asked to do special verses where people might explain something they would like to display in a verse to a loved one,� she said. “Anything from a man who lost his wife and is still so much in love with her and wanting to celebrate their ruby anniversary.� While Mrs Mullan is content with her verses exposure across the Riverland, she would love to publish a book that could go around the world. “My plans are to publish and I’d really like to go wider than the Riverland,� she said. “I will dedicate my book to my father who passed away last year. “I really think it is great if I can inspire people with my writing.�

National park havens

MATTERS

THE Murray River National Park comprises three sections, Bulyong Island, Lyrup Flats and Katarapko. The park has high conservation values and conserves diverse habitat including waterways, wetlands and floodplain. These habitats are home to threatened species including regent parrots, golden bell frogs and Murray cod. It is also an important breeding area for many forms of wildlife including water birds and a priority site for wetland management and future protection and enhancement work. Indigenous and European cultural sites exist within the park with middens, canoe trees and historic remnants of European settlement. Bulyong Island located upstream from the mouth of Ral Ral creek is an interesting destination for day visitors being only accessible by boat. Situated between Renmark and Berri, a short ferry ride over from Lyrup Village, Lyrup Flats offers 24 designated campsites each with a unique Murray River view. Several of the larger campsites nearer to the Lyrup ferry are ideal for large groups

Turn a passion into a career MARK Petch is one Riverland local working in the automotive industry who has turned his passion into a career. The Riverland vehicle industry employs approximately 400 workers and it is one industry where the demand for skilled tradespeople remains very strong. Through host employers, MTAGroupTraining Scheme offers trade training for panel beaters, vehicle painters, diesel mechanics and motor mechanics. Mark is one of about 30 apprentices/tradespeople working locally on motor vehicles in the Riverland. Through MTA-GTS, Mark has been ‘hosted by’ and worked for Rosenthal Motors for two years. Mark loves the Riverland and has a good feeling about keeping his connection with the local community. “Being an adult apprentice technician is an interesting job and good for people like me who don’t want a desk-job,’ he said. “In these uncertain economic times, people always need to get their vehicles repaired and serviced. “It’s great to be busy within this organisation which gives me job security. There will always be long term security for people with good trade and communication skills, especially in rural South Australia. “The mining industry and motor vehicle industries will continue to demand skilled tradespeople no matter what happens.� MTA Executive Director, John Chapman said “with the right skills, really committed people can pursue a career in any number of industries and have long term plans to even start their own business�.

and allow all weather access suitable for caravans Katarapko is a haven for fishing, canoeing, camping and bush walking with around 50 designated campsites each placed to allow privacy and seclusion for families or groups. Divided into three sections, Lock 4, Eckert’s Creek and Main Katarapko, these are accessed from Crawford Terrace, in Berri, Lower Winkie Road and Katarapko Terrace at Winkie respectively. The Lock 4 section hugs the River with stunning views of the Bookpurnong Cliffs. Ngak Indau walking trail loops from the river through the wetlands and bush allowing river users and house boaters to tie up and go for a walk knowing they will end up back where they started. Eckert’s section includes the Wide Waters and The Splash. Boats can be launched into the upstream section of Katarapko Creek from the sand bar above the Stone Weir. Main Katarapko runs for 14 kilometres along the bank of Katarapko Creek from The Splash to the Murray River down stream from Loxton at the end of Katarapko Island and is part of the Murray River Canoe Trails Network. For those who like vehicle based touring, the Murray Pin Trail has numbered stops where you can learn without leaving the car. Kai Kai Nature Trail is an educational trail targeting school age children and is just less than three kilometres long. Cragg’s Hut Walking Trail helps visitors understand the history of human habitation in the area from the first people of the Murray to its present day use as a national park.

Berri Auto Centre: Keeping a step ahead

An innovative BERRI Auto Centre has been servicing the Riverland automotive and recreational vehicle industry for more than 20 years. Over that time, the business has become a leader in its field of automotive repair, power system design ■SOLAR POWER: Berri Auto Centre specialises in the design and installation of and supply for not only cars, 4WDs, and motor homes but the houseboat solar home energy systems using the latest techniques and automation. industry as well. Roger and Kerry Dolling, Berri Auto Centre’s owners, have been in business since 1984 and witnessed many changes in all aspects of the 7HO YOU TURN TO FOR TYRES industry. Kerry keeps the endless bookwork and office administration in check, while Roger keeps ahead of ever changing technology. Over the years, the couple has also employed many Riverlanders and trained several apprentices. Berri Auto Centre specialises in the modification and upgrade of existing power supply systems, through to the design and installation of new solar and power supply systems utilising the latest techniques and automation. Roger is a qualified mechanic and auto electrician, trained by Bosch Australia, while he undertakes post trade training several times a year. Roger recently attended training at Selectronic Australia, manufacturers of interactive sinewave inverters and inverter chargers, so that he can give the best possible service and technical back up to his Riverland clients in the houseboat industry. This training has seen Roger become an accredited Selectronic installer and repairer. Roger first started experimenting with solar energy in the late 1980s when it was difficult to market the new power source to all but a small number of houseboat operators. As time has gone by, the vessels that ply our waters are much more sophisticated with more and more electrical demand, very much like our homes.

This is due to advances in the storage of electricity, which can now be converted into usable AC mains style electricity.

allocations, irrigators could be rewarded with extra incentive packages to enable them to set up viable sun farms on their properties. “What’s the use of a small property if you can’t sell it or produce anything on it for the lack of water,� Roger said. “Turn it into a solar farm and you ease pressure on the river system, ease pressure on the electricity supply and ease pressure on the irrigator and

also generate employment in the region.� The application of several government incentives, such as RRPGP (renewable remote power generation programme), to eligible growers would surely be worth consideration by the federal and state governments, according to Roger. “The Rudd Government may well consider it as part of its economic stimulus package,� he said.

ROGER and Kerry believe that their training helps them keep up with the latest in technology and puts Berri Auto Centre clients ahead of the pack. In these trying times, being energy efficient as well as self sufficient can not only be self fulfilling but financially rewarding as well. With changes in technology and improvement in design and efficiency, we have seen over the last few years a trend towards what we call “grid connect� solar systems develop. These systems do not use a battery system to store energy but supply it directly to our appliances, or when we do not want it, feed it back to the grid. Berri Auto Centre has now combined with Zen Home Energy systems to bring to the Riverland simple elegant packaged systems to produce solar energy that is efficient and user friendly. The solar electricity systems come in five grid connect outputs from 4.2kwh daily to 17.2 kwh daily. The solar hot water systems come in four configurations and can save up to 80 per cent of your hot water costs. Kerry and Roger invite all people with an interest in solar energy and solar hot water to an information day at the Big River Tavern on Saturday, February 21, from 10am until 2pm. Feel welcome to discuss your interest with Berri Auto Centre and consultants from Zen Home Energy.

The result is we have a houseboat that runs almost completely on 10 solar panels and the generator only operates when conditions are not favourable for solar.� Customers are quick to comment that the boat is unique to others they have hired because of the amount of time the generator does not run and the reduced fuel consump-

Vital Therapy

Health support with variety VITAL Therapy is a business run by a young Bowen therapist Emma Braun, who also provides a variety of other services, including massage, lymphatic drainage and detoxification. Bowen therapy balances the body across physical, mental and emotional planes and Vital Therapy’s Emma Braun is now fully qualified to practice in this beneficial health field. Emma, who started working at Vital Therapy with Annie Delaine, has been involved with the business for nearly three years and has owned it since late November 2007. In that time the former Loxton High School student has almost completed a certificate three in business and has finished a 12 month Bowen therapy course plus other accreditations. The Bowen diploma Emma has achieved is a significant benefit for her already established clients and those who would like to use her services in the future. “People can get health rebates which can make it cheaper for them if their health insurances covers Bowen therapy,� Emma said. So, what is Bowen therapy? Emma said it is a holistic approach to help pain relief and healing that achieves remarkable results. Bowen works with muscle and soft tissue without manipulation of the skeleton. It helps provide an overall dynamic body balance and integrated body response. “It helps stimulate energy flows, resulting in a deep sense of overall relaxation,� Emma said. Emma said Bowen therapy can be used to cover a whole gamut of injuries.

From neck and shoulder discomfort, through to back pain and respiratory and digestive complaints, Emma can help you with them all. Emma really enjoys her work and hopes to help more clients to achieve their health aims. “It’s a good feeling to be able to help people feel better about themselves and see that I’m helping them,� Emma said.

“Such as someone being able to lift their arm to do something as simple as putting clothes on the line, where before it was a real struggle. This makes my job feel worthwhile and like I’m making a difference to ■NATURAL: Emma can give you a natural looking tan without exposing your skin their life.� to harmful UV rays.

Local bank collapse: no fear By BRAD PERRY A 15 metre wide man made levee bank at the Long Island Marina at Murray Bridge collapsed last week, prompting concern that banks across the rest of the River Murray could also dry out. Murray Darling Basin Association chairman Les Hill assured the community that water levels have been managed well enough in the Riverland to prevent this from happening. However, Mr Hill said if the water level continues to drop and there is no action taken to replace the water, it could mean that the eroding of the riverbank could be a problem. “There is only 1500 gigalitres of water left in the system,� he said. “We are losing 75 to 80 gigalitres a week with no in flow. “We have no real problems at the moment, unless the river drops right back.� The River Murray’s water levels have become so low and are moving so slowly that if the water flow stops then blue-green algal blooms are a possibility, Mr Hill added. The collapse of the man made marina at Murray Bridge may add extra issues to last month’s proposed houseboat strategy paper

â– PROBLEM: The low river level below Lock One is causing concern that bank collapses could become more common along that stretch of the river.

which was set to establish permanent mooring sites and man-made marinas. Mr Hill said the banks of the Murray River are less likely to collapse because they have kept a vast amount of willow trees on the shores edge. “Willow trees do support the banks around Renmark,� he said. “Murray Bridge has removed the willows.�

River Murray Minister Karlene Maywald said the water levels did have an impact on the bank collapsing and that it needs to be monitored to stop it from happening in the Riverland. “There is not enough water to maintain weir pool levels,� she said. “Below Lock One there is major concern. “People with properties on the riverbank are urged to see if they are safe.

“There is ongoing watching of the river.� Loxton Waikerie Council environmental services director Neil Martinson said the state of river banks is something that needs to be closely monitored. “We need to keep an eye out to ensure that it doesn’t happen up here,� he said. “All councils need to be aware.� Renmark to the Border Local Action Planning Association project manager Phil Reddy said steady water levels and a good amount of vegetation are keys to keeping the banks from collapsing. “Their problem was that the man-made bank wasn’t compacted properly,� he said. “There are some issues in wetlands where banks are eroding and cracking because they have not been compacted properly. “While water levels have sloped down, there is a good amount of vegetation and fauna.� While it seems that the problem of banks collapsing may not be an issue the Riverland has to deal with in the immediate future, it is an issue that could arise. “In isolated places it will happen,� he said. “The river has receded and if we don’t get rain shortly, we’ve got a problem.�

Meanwhile, a major local leisure pursuit comes under fire for its river impact...

Wakeboard damage concern By BRAD PERRY WAKEBOARD SA has hit back at claims that the sport is causing major environmental damage to the riverbanks and surrounding environment of the River Murray. Recreational sports along the river have been hotly discussed by councils and locals who are concerned that they could have long lasting environmental damage. Wakeboard SA Club President Jon Siegele said if users of river sports such as wakeboarding are doing it properly, there shouldn’t be a major impact on the riverbanks. “Wakeboards go in a straight line and should only have three waves off the wake,� he said. “Wind damage is the biggest problem. The latest concerns have been addressed in a letter to the Renmark Paringa Council by a resident which states that wakeboard boats are creating damaging waves and are a safety risk. Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson said the issue has been ongoing. “It has been building up over time,� he said. “It is fair to say that council expresses concern of the wave action from wakeboats as they have more

tain areas of the river where they will have less impact,� she said. The eroding of the river banks from the wave actions of river goers has been the main concern, according to Murray Darling Basin Association Region 5 chairman Les Hill. “The river is getting wider as

jor problem, as seen at the popular spot Martins Bend in Berri, according to Mr Hill. “A little part of Martins Bend has been washed away and has been sand bagged,� he said. “Banks on bends where water is swirled around, that is where there is eroding of banks.� Renmark to the Border Local Action Planning project manager Phil Reddy has also heard comments about the environmental impact of water sports. “I have heard people’s comments about it affecting native vegetation,� he said. “The actions of wakeboarding in the river impacts by washing the soils away.� The Department of Water, Land and Biodiversity Conservation has previously released an action plan to cut back the negative impact of water sports on the River Murray. Wakeboarding boss Mr Siegele said the sport has major benefits to the community, despite environmental concerns. “The boosts of the economy far outweighs that,� he said. “The perfect situation is to not have boats on the water but it is not feasible. The national champs in Renmark bring 400 people to the region a week.�

Surviving the summer heat By TAHLEE NEILSON WHAT a couple of weeks. Many of us are glad to see the end of the heat wave and with this cool influx of weather are keen to get out there and tidy up the damage. Be careful. Watch the weather, you may think you are doing your plants justice by removing dead leaves and limbs but in fact you may be doing the opposite. Think carefully about what you want to do to your plants, as removing the dead matter

I have received many easier to tell whether they will

survive or not and those that are looking ‘iffy’ may need a good dose of seaweed emulsion. Seaweed is also very useful in protecting plants on hot days when poured over foliage, as it acts as a kind of sunscreen and heat guard. If you are certain that your plants are dead and would like to replace them as soon as possible, then start thinking about what you would like now. Most deciduous trees are being ordered now and are great value for money.

NOT like you need reminding but here in the Riverland we experience many extremes. An extremely good lifestyle. An extreme lack of traffic lights. Extremely cohesive communities. Extremely hot summers. Extremely tough plants. We have watched as traditional garden plants have quite literally baked in the sun and ultra dry soils. However, all of our local species (not riparian species), and most of the species that naturally occur in the dry areas of Australia, cope well with the extremes. Saltbushes and their allies make up the majority of vegetation on the vast treeless areas of the arid zone. Acacia and Eucalyptus species dominate the rest. Why? They all (and many others) to varying degrees tolerate salinised soils, drought, (in fact salt in the soil has a similar effect of drought on plants), low soil fertility and extremes of temperature, among other issues. The cruellest blow would have to be overgrazing by the rabbit. Yet, amazingly, most still survive. Some of the ways that plants cope with the extremes our environment dishes up are: hairy

stomata (pores) that never really open wide; all to reduce water loss; leaves and other plant parts that actually store water; leaves and stems shaped to channel water to the roots; chemicals contained in the leaves that prevent them from being eaten; deep roots; the ability to grow back rapidly after being burnt or being eaten. I can hear you say these sorts of plants are “grey, hairy, deep-rooted low saltbushes with insignificant flowers�. Yes of course, many are, however, many, including the often strikingly beautiful Acacia ‘wattles’ and Eremophila ‘emu bush’, are well worth using in any dry land (that’s us) garden. Using contrasting foliage types to create interest year round, different flowering times to bring in birds all year round and bold use of massed plantings of single species not only can make your garden look beautiful but also using the toughest plants Australia has to offer, you can rest easy in a heat wave, even if the mercury reaches 48 degrees with a howling northerly. And water restrictions. Not like you need reminding.

Tennis girls win fans â– APART from the success

of our Mike Horsman at the recent Australian Tennis Seniors Championships in Adelaide, as reported recently, I have found there were other triumphs for two of our women’s teams representing an improved SA – and also some gamesmanship and frivolity. First congratulations to captain Sue Caddy, Vicki Johnson, Jessie Symens, Ria Szewczuk and Sue Fox

in the 50 plus division and Jill Clifford (captain), Kaye Tanner, Polly Johnson, Jill Fogden and Val Chabrel in the combined age group for both finishing third in their competitions. Also it appears some ‘interesting tactics’ were employed to take advantage of the half point credits allowed in each incomplete set when play ceased immediately upon the sounding of a buzzer should the time

limit of two and half hours strictly applied to matches elapse. Some timely comfort breaks? Our versatile ladies also ‘brought the house down’ when the teams combined to present their hilarious Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs skit at the state dinner held as part of the championships. I don’t think Horsey got a guernsey in that.

ers from country SA descend on Adelaide every year to contest what has become one of the prestige events in the Bowls SA calendar. The events played are singles, pairs and fours. Last week’s country carnival contained a crammed schedule played in sometimes oppressive heat. The Riverland bowlers did themselves proud. For the second year in a row Renmark RSL’s John Van der Wyst has been a member of a rink skippered by former Berri bowler Steve Eichenberger that has taken out the fours championship at the carnival. In the singles, Peter Kimber, from Loxton, made it through to the semi-finals, with the next best being Gary Pursche, from Waikerie, and David Rice, from Renmark, who both reached

â– NOT even the Riverland Speedway meeting on Saturday night escaped the wrath of the heatwave that had crippled sport across the region for a fortnight. Officials described conditions at their Calperum Hill complex for the Monster Truck night as some of the worst they could remember and while disappointed that the crowd was well down on the previous occasions, they could understand the situation. Even the fire breathing dinosaur Transzilla suffered from the extreme heat. However, former local junior champion Jason Gantz, in his Alltype Discount Exhaust Falcon, turned up the heat to take out the feature MJS Street

Stock event, finishing ahead of Murray Bridge pair Anthony Buchanan and Nigel Reichstein. In the annual boat race, Renmark entrants dominated with Leon Menz, James Brennan and Greg Haynes filling the placings. Brennan was ‘Best Presented’ and Haynes ‘Best Destroyer’. The next Riverland meeting is on Saturday, March 7, and will feature the SA junior title and, in a varied program, the ramp/figure eight race. There are also suggestions a tug’o’war Holden versus Ford event is to be introduced. In the meantime, Waikerie’s Sunline track will race on Saturday, February 21.

Indigenous stars in Alice Springs â– LOCALS Ken Karpany and Dale Abdulla are presently in Alice Springs representing the SA Southern Boomerangs in the indigenous Imparja Cricket Cup. Manager of the team is Kingsley Abdulla. Tim Abdulla was a reserve for the trip. The event involves all states and territories in one division, smaller communities in another, major towns in a third and women in a Super 8s competition. Before their departure the Boomerangs narrowly defeated the SACA Cavaliers in a Twenty20 game at Park 25 in the city. Karpany scored 18 and grabbed a couple of wickets.

Speedway can’t beat the heat

good performances from Ken Stokes (Berri) and Dixie Lee (Renmark RSL), who teamed up with John White (Moorook). The focus on lawn bowls this week moves to the annual country men’s round robin. This is an event where historically Zone 4 (Riverland, Broken Hill, Mid Murray, Barossa), until recently, has done very well. It seems that now, like other sports, selectors, have some difficulty in getting the top players to make themselves available for the event. This probably has something to do with the two country events running back to back. Van der Wyst travels to Bendigo this week to attempt to progress in the Australian open singles, having won his way through the preliminary stages in Adelaide about a month ago.

The number of times Murray Districts won the country cricket carnival prior to 1976.

Troubled times ahead for Murray Districts Barrier ■I CONSIDER Neil Weinert a good mate. I have the utmost respect for the former Berri postal manager, who since his retirement has really put his shoulder to the wheel as the SA Cricket Association’s organiser for our zone. So why wasn’t I particularly looking forward to an interview I had arranged with him for 5RM’s Sports Saturday last weekend? The annual measuring stick of our zone performance, the SACA Country Carnival in Adelaide, which had just finished, saw our team Murray Districts Barrier, end up eighth out of eight with one victory from seven outings. So how could our conversation be of a totally positive nature? It simply could not. Murray Districts, which became

Cricket – I have been concerned about its welfare for many years because it is the sport closest to my heart. As I said, for some reason or another our competitive presence at annual country carnivals has traditionally been a measuring stick. But then that has been the situation for many of our sports, summer and winter, where there was no problem in getting teams ‘for Adelaide’ in years gone by. Of course other districts share our problems. Sign of the times, eh?

Roo’s a wonderful Riverland ambassador ■WHEN the Riverland Football League’s executive officer Mick Beech visited the Alma Hotel in Adelaide to present Mark Ricciuto with a plaque to acknowledge the enormous contribution the former Crows captain made to this region last season, it wasn’t just a thank you from the football fraternity but from all of the Riverland and its surrounds. It is now history that ‘Roo’ stripped for his beloved home team Waikerie in 2008, amazingly booting the premiership winning goal for the Magpies. Of course it was also Waikerie’s centenary year and their favourite son was an integral part of the foot-

ball club’s celebrations and played a major role in having his former Crows team mate, champion goalkicker Tony Modra, turn out for the opposition club Renmark in a special Centenary match that attracted 3500 spectators. A similar number attended the grand final – obviously many to see Roo in action. Unashamedly, Ricciuto has expressed his affection for the town he grew up in and where he commenced his magnificent football career but his love of ‘home’ obviously extends beyond Waikerie’s boundaries to the Riverland as a whole. How valuable was the promotion he orchestrated for our area as a tourist des-

tination and the like? Also, how was the publicity he generated to the plight of our water starved region and the effect it was having on local families, primary producers and businesses? Money could not buy the media coverage the Riverland received as a result of Roo’s involvement, an involvement that would have cost this active family and businessman considerably in time and in pocket but was delivered with genuine modesty, generosity and passion. In fact Roo is to be the voice of the RFL for its centenary year in 2009 and will toss the coin at its huge day of celebrations at Renmark on May 16.

Academy executive officer Bob Utber said it will be meeting with a number of local sporting bodies to discuss the possibility of athletes aged between 12 and 17 years linking up with the academy. “The tyranny of distance makes it very difficult for all promising

young athletes to have the opportunity to make it to the top of their chosen sport,” he said. The academy offers promising young athletes the opportunity to be involved in a variety of processes that enables them to further develop their skills in their chose sport. Presently there are four sports in its program, volleyball, basketball, tennis and golf, however the academy is also looking for young athletes who may be involved with minor sports who do not get that opportunity as

On the Road

Telling people at a dinner party you drive a Nissan Almera is like telling them you’ve got the ebola virus and you’re about to sneeze. ~ Jeremy Clarkson

Commodore again top seller THE Holden Commodore is Australia’s favourite passenger car for the 13th consecutive year after finishing 2008 as the nation’s best-seller. The result continues Commodore’s unbroken record from 1996 as the country’s leading passenger car range, extending its run as one of the modern automotive world’s longest consecutive market leadership records. Sales figures for 2008, released by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries, show Australians purchased a total of 51,093 vehicles from the VE Commodore range. The results follow GM Holden’s strong sales performance in December, which saw dealers defy difficult economic conditions, new competitive entrants and heavy price competition in the market to sell 10,848 new cars. This included the sale of 5413 Commodore and 1629 VE Ute models, the highest monthly sales volume for both vehicles in 2008. In total, GM Holden sold

■ THIRTEEN: The number 13 is unlucky for some but not for Holden’s Commodore, which has been named Australia’s favourite passenger car for the 13th straight year. 130,338 vehicles in Australia for 2008 delivering market share of 12.9 per cent. GM Holden registered

the second highest sales overall to Toyota with 238,983 sales and 23.6 per cent, and was ahead of Ford

with 104,715 sales and 10.3 per cent. In a year where Commodore celebrated 30 years on

Australian roads, its annual sales were boosted by the introduction of the all-new Sportwagon alongside the successful sedan range in July. Sportwagon immediately proved a popular choice with Australian motorists. A total of 8200 were purchased in just five months, more than any SUV in the market for the same period. Other strong performing GM Holden models in 2008 included the Statesman, which led the upper large category for vehicles under $100,000 with a 38.8 per cent market share. The VE Ute also enjoyed success in its first full year of sales, outselling its main rival, the Ford Falcon Ute, with 13,449 vehicles. New 2008 models, including the Captiva 2WD SUV and mid-sized Epica diesel, also demonstrated an improved sales performance towards the end of 2008. GM Holden sales director Alan Batey said Holden’s sales results demonstrated that family sized vehicles continued to be attractive to

Australians. He said the results indicate that Commodore remains a smart buy, particularly at a time when many customers are concerned about domestic and global economic conditions. “The automotive industry was not alone in feeling the pressure of the broader economic situation in 2008,” Mr Batey said. “However the results for Commodore were very pleasing despite the softening new car market and slowing Australian economy. “It just shows that during tough times, people are attracted to products that represent outstanding quality and value for money. “Commodore has become a symbol of local design and engineering expertise and Australia’s ability to compete on the world stage. “Holden is committed to a program of ongoing development to ensure Commodore maintains its reputation as a smart buy for Australian motorists.”

The Modified Scene with GRAHAM MATTHEWS

A tasty Riverland orange

LMVD 167420

MY feature car this issue looks inviting, is full of energy and packs a punch like a well grown Riverland orange. Owned by Greg Coombs, of Loxton, it was a five year project that turned out exactly how he wanted it. During his late teens Greg had a couple mates who were into cars, so his interest grew as he set about mildly modifying his first car, a Datsun 1600 sedan. When he began work, the additional funds were used to upgrade to a really nice two door HQ Monaro that he enjoyed for a few years until sport and other interests became a priority, then it was moved on. Datsun 1600s had created a bit of a cult following around the country over the years and in 1999 Greg purchased a 1971 sedan in reasonable original condition at Holden Hill, in Adelaide. It was his intention to totally rebuild it keeping the original external appearance

Nationals held at Birdwood or in old terms roughly 30

miles per gallon. That’s not bad for a car that puts out 290 kw and runs 11.5 seconds over the quarter mile with an ET of 120 mph. Greg would like to acknowledge his wife Donna and thank her for all her support and patience over the five year build process. Even though she can’t eat it (Riverland orange), it must be refreshing to sit back and appreciate such a well built and good looking car. As for the future, Greg simply wants to drive and enjoy the Datsun, while he starts work on his next project. This will be another car in the form of a purpose built 1983 Toyota Soarer drag car running a turbo charged six cylinder Toyota engine, but having read all the above it is not difficult to understand the car Greg would most like to own is a new R35 Nissan Skyline GTR.

tain their audience, Miss Lardner warned that they also have a daring side to them. At one stage they spent 24 hours riding on a roller coaster in Queensland and during the recent heat wave Hamish slept all night with bags of frozen peas. “They appeal to the risk takers in all of us,” Miss Lardner said. “Expect relevant, funny, topical, light entertainment.” It’s a win for the region having such big named presenters on the radio and could even eclipse the Merrick and Rosso which used to air on Riverland Radio. Miss Lardner is anticipating the pair will add a bit of everything to your afternoon. “What you see is what you get, it is just the kind of guys they are,” she said.

AUSTRALIA’S favourite radio pair, Hamish and Andy, are bringing all of their humour and daredevil ways Magic 93.1. The pair, whose most recent appearance on Rove Live saw Andy have his hair died red due to a lost bet, are set to take up the working afternoons of listeners on the Riverland’s hit music station Magic931 from March 2. The duo will host a live two hour talk show every Monday to Friday and a ‘best of’ show on Saturdays from 10am. Riverland Radio general manager Cheryl Lardner said her staff are excited about the opportunity to have the relatable characters on the station. “They are the hottest thing on the radio,” she said. “They are the guys

you went to uni with, the guys you have round for a barbecue, they are so relatable. “We are really excited to bring another level of programming to Magic931 and the Riverland.” The pair has won the Commercial Radio Australia award for the best on air team for the past two years. Their laid back nature and fun loving personalities make them appeal to all age brackets, while their humour can brighten up any dull afternoon. “They’re your afternoon pick me up,” Miss Lardner said. “They are relevant and quick with their humour. “From your home, office, car, if you have a radio there will be Hamish and Andy.” While Hamish and Andy use their quick witted humour to enter-

TIGERS CALL ON WOODS

By LES PEARSON

MORGAN/CADELL Football Club has confirmed it will be hitting the park once more in 2009 putting to bed the growing doubts over the club’s future. Club president Brenton Schmitt said following a club meeting on Tuesday the committee positions are filled and the club is looking forward to getting into season 2009. Mr Schmitt announced the appointment of new A grade coach Mark Woods. Woods has played at Morgan for the past two years after venturing over from Port Augusta. While the club is unsure if it will be fielding a B grade side, Mr Schmitt said the A

grade players are keen as ever to get the season underway, already starting training, which is a first for a long time this early in the year.

We’re playing it year by year but we’re certainly hoping to go more than one year.

“It’s very unusual,� he said. “The boys are pretty keen.� Mr Schmitt said training usually gets underway about four weeks from round one

but about a dozen players are already on the training track in positive signs for the Tigers. It’s not just the senior side of things that the club is looking forward to, the under 17 and under 13 teams are steadily taking shape with the under 13s showing particular promise. “It’s good to see,� Mr Schmitt said. As far as the long-term future of the club is concerned, Mr Schmitt said it is a tough issue but the committee will be working in keeping the club together as long as possible. “We’re playing it year by year but we’re certainly hoping to go more than one year,� he said.

THE Riverland’s most presigious tennis tournament will kick off this Sunday with the world’s best outside ranked players competing for a possible spot in the world rankings. Berri-view Futures tennis tournament will start this Sunday and run through the week, with the finals being played on the following Sunday. The tournament has seen the likes of Australia’s currently number two nationally ranked Chris Guccione, number three Peter Luczak, number seven Joseph Sirianni and last year’s tournament winner Alun Jones, who ranks at number 30, compete. Berri-view Tennis Club president Garry Pinnington said the tournament is beneficial for Berri and Riverland tennis. “It brings our township and club to world recognition,� he said. “It puts us in the world spotlight. “The grass courts are looking good with enough water this year.� Australian player Colin Ebelthite who ranks at number 254 in the world is the number one seed for the tournament. Mr Pinnington said the best Riverland tennis hopes lie with Cobdogla’s 15-year-old Luke Saville, who has been at the top of his game so far this year. ■Continued Page 34
