MORE TO LOVE The editor’s desk Welcome to the second edition of our ‘new look’ Southern Free Times in our gloss format. The feedback we’ve had on the first edition last week has been overwhelmingly positive - readers have said they like the ‘look and feel’ of our new publication, and are still looking forward to relevant and up to date coverage of local issues. This week the dominant issue across the region is the council’s Invasive Pest Control Scheme, one of two issues - the other being the future of the Warwick Saleyards - which drew around 600 people to a public meeting at Freestone last Thursday. Clearly there are concerns about the practical enforcement of this scheme, the potential costs to landowners in extra rates, and public consultation about the scheme. Also inside today you’ll find the August edition of our ‘Rural Links’ magazine - and once again we thank all of our valued readers and advertisers for their support of both of our publications. Please feel free to pass on any feedback - along with story tips - directly to me at Jeremy.Sollars@ freetimes.com.au or on 0427 090 818.

THIS WEEK WE’RE TALKING ABOUT… DAM SESSION ON DEAF EARS Around 85 people attended an information session on the Emu Swamp Dam proposal held last Wednesday 9 August at the Stanthorpe International Club. The seminar was hosted by the Stanthorpe and Granite Belt Chamber of Commerce, and information was presented on the latest water report adopted by the Southern Downs Regional Council by Chamber president Ian Henderson and chair of the Stanthorpe Community Reference Panel, Stephen Tancred. Southern Downs LNP candidate James Lister moderated the meeting, with only one Southern Downs councillor in attendance, but the speakers have made the offer to present the information to the full council if they are available.
Mr Tancred said, “many major flaws” were revealed in the recently released report on water security options for Stanthorpe. “The 300-page report has been accepted by the councillors and the mayor despite the flaws - with the exception of Cr Vic Pennisi who has been made aware of its many problems,” he said. “I’m quite concerned that our decision-makers have made a mistake because they haven’t got all the facts in front of them. “Our mayor, CEO and eight councillors receive close to a million dollars a year for their decision-making power, and I think they should always seek information widely. “Scrutiny of a 300-page technical report is not an easy thing, and as an experienced professional I stand ready to assist the council.
“The report has major mathematical mistakes - $3m addition errors omissions of important data, uses some obviously flawed assumptions and appears to have interpreted and presented some data in a very odd, onesided fashion.” Mr Tancred said surveys were done of those at meeting and 100 per cent of respondents felt that in accepting the report in June, the councillors hadn’t conducted their own independent research or listened to all the stakeholders and based their vote on “a sound understanding of all the issues around Emu Swamp Dam”. “People who attended the smaller public meeting organised by the council in the previous week were also surveyed and 100 per cent of those respondents said they thought the council should reconsider its decision to accept the GHD consultants report,” he said.
Ian Henderson said he was “concerned that councillors have failed the basic test of governance by not acting with due care, skill and diligence”. “Everyone in the community who has heard of the report’s problems is worried about the decision process, the lone councillor who has heard of the problems and who has put his concerns on the record,” Mr Henderson said. “Good dilligence requires a questioning mind and should ensure all facts available are considered. “To ignore the opportunity to gain easily available facts is alarming.” He said between $400,000 and $500,000 was spent on the report, and it should stand up to “robust scrutiny“. The business case for the Emu Swamp Dam was further discussed by councillors in a confidential special meeting held on Monday of this week. ●

Work on a replacement shelter shed for the Swanfels Pioneer Memorial Park started last Monday 14 August. The original shelters were demolished by the Southern Downs Regional Council in January after being declared a safety risk due to termite damage, despite an independent report stating the damage was repairable. Funding was set aside in the 2017-2018 council budget for materials and All Trades Queensland is doing the work for free as a project for apprentices. Current and former local residents and former students of Swanfels State School were furious when the council razed the shelter sheds to the ground on 20 January, less than 72 hours after announcing the sheds were infested with termites and had to go. The timber and iron-roofed sheds had
formerly been a tennis shelter and a play shed at the old Swanfels State School, and were moved to the district’s Pioneer Park in the early 1980s. The park itself is hallowed ground in the Swanfels district, with plaques and trees commemorating early settlers and later families alike, and in some cases marking the site of their ashes, and is also popular with passing tourists such as ‘grey nomads’. After the demolition, the council released a community survey asking residents if they want the sheds replaced, and if so with either a “simple structure” or “reconstruction of a structure similar to the previous building. The overwhelming resolution of a public meeting in the park back in March was for council to construct a timber-and-iron structure as close as possible in size and design to the original sheds. ●

WORK BEGINS ON NEW SHED
Despite currently being embroiled in a controversy over his dual Australian and New Zealand citizenship, a visit by Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce to the Southern Downs is still on, says local LNP State candidate James Lister. Barnaby Joyce is due to be guest of honour at a dinner at The Summit Bowls Club located between Warwick and Stanthorpe at 6pm on Friday 25 August, hosted by Mr Lister. Mr Lister said the Deputy PM is “no ordinary politician”. “Barnaby Joyce is a real character and as our local LNP candidate I’m proud to have his support and advice,” he said. “He tells great stories, he’s passionate about the bush, and he relates well to everyone he meets. “It’ll be a terrific night there’ll be great raffle prizes including a stockman’s whip from Kent Saddlery with which Barnaby will give a whip cracking demonstration.”

COVER STORY Elbow Valley cattle producer Ben Usher is urging landowners to get their ‘Control Works’ forms in, regardless of any changes the council may make to the IPCS.
NEED
FOR
CONTROL BY JEREMY SOLLARS
T
he Southern Downs Regional Council says any changes to its controversial Invasive Pest Control Scheme (IPCS) would need to be passed by a resolution at a council meeting. Calls for a trial of the scheme in its first year - without the imposition of financial penalties for noncompliance - were made at a public meeting held last Thursday at the Freestone Memorial Hall to discuss the IPCS and the future of the Warwick Saleyards, attended by around 600 local producers and landholders. Those at the meeting vented their frustration and anger over the scheme - announced as part of the 2017-’18 budget - which could see rural and other landowners slugged with a ‘supplementary rates notice’ if they cannot demonstrate sufficient efforts to control pest plants and animals on their properties. The scheme paperwork - in the form of ‘Control Works’ forms - is due to be returned to the council by tomorrow, Friday 18 August, but a month’s grace will be available for
those who can’t submit theirs in time. The council’s manager of environmental services, Tim O’Brien, told the Free Times this week there has been “no decision of council to have the first year of the scheme as a trial”. “As the scheme has already been adopted and commenced, any proposed changes to the scheme must be approved by resolution of council at a council meeting,” Mr O’Brien said. He also said new staff recruited to implement the scheme “commenced within the last two to three weeks”. One local farmer who many see as a voice of reason in the debate is Ben Usher, who spoke at last week’s public meeting. The Elbow Valley cattleman told the Free Times this week he was initially reluctant to address the meeting when asked to do so by organiser and former deputy mayor Ross Bartley. But he feels strongly about the issue and takes the view that the community is entitled to have a say, something
which he says was missing from the council’s pre-planning of the IPCS as part of the 2017-’18 budget. “I’m not politically motivated - I don’t want another job,” Usher laughed. “Ross asked me to go along and speak and really I didn’t want to, I didn’t go looking for it. “But then I thought, ‘You know what? If I don’t do it how can I expect someone else to speak for me?’ “I talk to a lot of different people and there are definitely a lot of concerns about this scheme and a lot of people feel there hasn’t been enough consultation and information. “People aren’t necessarily against it in its entirety and I’m not either - but there are a lot of questions that haven’t really been answered. “I think a lot of people see it as being all about the dollars, rather than the council suddenly taking a passionate interest in pest management. “What I’d like to see - and this is what I said at the meeting - is the scheme run as a trial in the first year, without financial penalties.”

Ben Usher has been heavily involved in pest management in his nearly 20 years of farming at Elbow Valley, principally through wild dog management both locally and regionally, and regularly assists the council and landowners with distribution of 1080 baiting.
scheme gives the council “some teeth” to deal with those who blatantly ignore their pest management obligations. “I know there has to be some motivation for neighbours who won’t do a thing, and maybe that’s where a financial penalty comes in,” he said.
HOW DOES THE IPCS WORK? Rates notices issued across the region last month to landowners with holdings zoned ‘Agriculture and Farming’, ‘Horticulture’, ‘Commercial and Industrial’, ‘Residential 4’ and others show an amount for the pest management charge based on a cents-in-thedollar land valuation. But the charge is listed as a ‘concession’ and only payable if landowners either fail to meet their obligations under the IPCS to control invasive weeds and animal pests on their properties, or if they fail to submit a ‘Control Works’ form outlining their private pest management strategy by Friday 18 August. If the council deems it payable the charge will be levied as a ‘Supplementary Rates Notice’ “towards the end of the financial year”, according to a council spokesman. The minimum ‘special charge’ is $500 but some landowners have been ‘granted’ a ‘concession’ on their rates notices in the thousands, depending on the valuation of their properties. Landowners who fail to comply and who have parcels zoned Agriculture and Farming categories 1, 2 and 3, and Horticulture 1, 2 and 3 will pay a ‘supplementary rate’ of 0.50 cents in the dollar of the rateable value of their holdings, with the minimum fee of $500 applicable. Owners of land zoned Residential 4, Commercial and Industrial (Town and Rural), Extractive and Special Uses will pay 0.30 cents in the dollar, also with a minimum $500 fee.
‘WE ALL WANT TO GET ALONG, NO-ONE WANTS DRAMA’ BEN USHER He makes it clear that he’s “not a council basher” and acknowledges the support the Southern Downs Regional Council has given to wild dog control. “I think we also need to give credit to the mayor and the councillors who attended the meeting last week,” he said. “They knew they were walking into a hostile environment, and it was good to see the CEO and current pest management officers there as well. “But as producers we do feel that we’re not always listened to - we often feel like we get a ‘political’ answer to our questions. “With this scheme, the first a lot of people knew about it was when they opened their rates notices. “Yes it’s been in the media but not everyone keeps up with all the news. “Maybe the council could have sent a personalised letter to everyone who was going to be affected before the budget came out. “At least that way no-one could’ve said they didn’t know anything about it.” Usher - whose property is several thousand acres in size - believes that as well as a lack of communication, a key question about the Invasive Pest Control Scheme is about its “policing” by the council. “The current (pest management) staff already have fulltime jobs and I just don’t see how they and any new staff are going to get around to inspecting every property in the region,” he said. “I’d want to be with them when they come to my place - and I don’t have a week to chaperone an officer around, which is how long it would take. “If I’m not getting cattle through I can’t pay my own rates, let alone a supplementary rates notice. “We just want to know exactly how we’re going to be judged on this. “The current staff are all reasonable blokes, but what if they move on and someone over-zealous is inspecting your property? “The other point is that if everyone does the right thing and no-one gets penalised, how are they going to pay for the cost of the extra staff?” Ben Usher also believes there should be an “exceptional circumstances clause” in the scheme, to allow for such things as extreme weather events - which can hamper weed management activities - and the unexpected, such as a death in the family, a marriage break-up, illness, property transfer and the like. At the end of the day he, like others, does believe the
Mayor Tracy Dobie would not commit to any review of the IPCS at last week’s meeting, saying a council resolution would be required in any case. “We all want to get along, no-one wants drama. “But the council needs to accept that pest management is ongoing - and they have to manage weeds and pests on their own lands as well.” Usher has urged affected landholders to get their ‘Control Works’ forms in regardless of any changes the council may make to the IPCS. “You certainly don’t want to be caught short - if you’re in any doubt just tick the box and get one of the officers to come out.” A petition on the IPCS circulated at last week’s Freestone public meeting can still be signed at Darryl Evans Real Estate on Palmerin Street and is expected to be presented at the next meeting of the Southern Downs Regional Council next Wednesday, 23 August at the Warwick chambers. A public meeting similar to last Thursday’s at Freestone will be held in Stanthorpe this coming Monday 21 August, at 5.30pm at the rugby league club ovals on McGlew Street.

THESE FRUIT ARE THE APPLE OF MY EYE
spaced about 2.5 metres apart. Of course good drainage and good soil is absolutely necessary to success in trying this. Then there is a range of really miniature trees that still produce full sized fruit and this look fantastic growing in a pot in a courtyard or a sunny patio. The “flat” peaches and nectarines are so decorative and practical for lunch boxes. These have been developed by crossing with 400-yearold Asian varieties. Unlike many apples, cherries, plums and other stone fruit, peaches are selfpollinating.
They originated in China about 4000 years ago and paintings of the fruit were found in a town destroyed by Mt. Vesuvius in 78BC suggesting that the fruit was known in Europe at least as early as that. Nashi fruit is relatively new to supermarket shelves although they are believed to have been brought to Australia by the Chinese in the 1850s during the gold rush era. I am reliably assured that a very old apricot variety called Moorpark is among the best. It was developed in England in the 1600s
and worldwide is considered one of the best for flavour, for eating fresh, for cooking, drying and for juice. I am mainly tempted to grow the apricot in winner because I have given up trying to buy apricots to eat because I have been disappointed to many times. The fruit will look luscious and appealing and the reality turns out to be dry, floury and tasteless so maybe a Moorpark will be the choice. They are self-pollinating so I won’t have to grow two trees because I really don’t have the room. Plums are another favourite with so many varieties and so good for you being a great source of fibre, iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium and vitamins A and C while low in sodium, fat, calories and cholesterol. The new Queen Garnet variety, which was developed quite accidentally in Queensland by the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, is promising wonderful things in many areas. It is first of all an extremely attractive dark fruit with the same coloured flesh and is really great tasting. It is well recognised that “blue” coloured fruit is high in antioxidants and the barometer for measuring this seems to be, what else, blueberries! Now is the time to get busy and source the bare rooted trees for planting if you have the space but just checking out catalogues and dreaming is entertaining and so much fun! ●

I picked up an interesting, small free magazine during last week that tells me all I need to know about growing apples and stone fruit, especially in small areas or pots. I have two lemon trees in pots and two finger limes also although one is looking decidedly sick at present. It was neglected while I was away for a while but so was its partner and it is still looking fine and flowering well. I have watered and fed it and done all the usual revitalising things so will wait and see how it goes. After reading this small magazine, I am really tempted to try at least an apple and a peach in a pot or espaliered on my fence and perhaps a low chill cherry. Oh it is so easy to get carried away but nothing beats the taste of tree fresh fruit. There is a range of dwarf, compact and columnar trees that would suit a number of situations and espaliering is something I have always wanted to try. The range of columnar apple trees that I read about were named for various dances, were complimentary pollinators and required little or no pruning. Maybe this would be a better idea than the time consuming practice of espalier. A Waltz and a Flamenco might be a good combination? Then there was a range of dwarf trees. These provided some of the recognisable varieties such as Gala, Pink Lady and Golden Delicious, perfect for growing in large pots or maybe half wine barrels

The Southern Downs Regional Council is running its August wild dog, fox and feral pig baiting program and free baits are still available at selected locations today and tomorrow. The council encourages all landowners to take advantage of this opportunity to bait these invasive pests. Co-ordinated baiting with 1080 is the most economical way of achieving effective control of these pests across a large area. Non-participation by landholders in baiting programs is the biggest barrier to achieving effective control. The baiting service for landholders does not incur a cost and a great deal of effort is focused on achieving high participation rates among landholders. Note the following requirements when using the 1080 baiting program: · Landholders must give 72 hours’ notice to all neighbouring land and any dwellings within 500 metres from where baits are to be laid. · Landholders are responsible for supplying their own meat which must be about 250 grams for dog bait. Landholders are responsible for supplying their own meat which must be about 500 grams for pig baits and must be arranged prior to the baiting program with the council’s pest management officers. · Landholders can have someone else pick up their baits for them but must supply an “Authority to sign” form filled out on the day. If they don’t have one, they can contact the council on 1300 697 372. For more information, contact the council pest management officers on 1300 MYSDRC (1300 697 372). August 2017 baiting dates ...

MAKING THE BEST USE OF ’NEW’ ROOM
Warwick
Expand your living space... If the bedroom is next to your lounge room, or a media room, you could knock down a wall and immediately open up a larger living area. Or you could build a new kitchen in the larger space and use the old kitchen area as
a media room, office or family room.
when you need a break from the screen to think or read.
Create a home office... If you’re working with your laptop from the dining table or kitchen bench, you can turn the bedroom into a home office, complete with printer, scanner and storage for stationery and files. Add a sofa bed, in case you have an extra guest stay over, or
Install a home gym... Now you have no excuse to avoid exercising. Install a home gym and make exercise a part of your early morning routine. If you have a hobby you can create a hobby room with all the tools and display areas you need to show off your creations.

Build an ensuite bathroom... If the bedroom is located next to another, you can create an ensuite for the other room and instantly add value. There is a
trade-off in losing a room, but it means you or your guests are sharing one less bathroom.

Given the high cost of raising children, your first reaction to having a bedroom available might be to rent it out and get a return. However, you can use this opportunity to re-think your home interior and give the room a more practical purpose. Here are some ideas to consider.

MAYOR GRINS The meeting last Thursday held at Freestone Hall was very well attended indeed by the rural community. The crowd was addressed by the mayor, among others. The mayor was the only one who grinned the whole time, and appeared to find the matter a joke. She offered an outright insult to the man who was the prime mover, Ross Bartley. For her poor behaviour, she was deservedly booed by the crowd. She claimed that the saleyards were not for sale, and the pest control scheme was just a trial.
And on television that night, she stated categorically that the council would not back down. The reaction among those with whom I have since spoken is not favorable at all. This mayor has sunk any possibility she may have had of a second term. Dick Howard, Swan Creek.
JAZZED UP ATMOSPHERE Interested friends for the first and second weekends of Jumpers and Jazz after telling them how good it is and how the bands play in the street where you can relax on lounge chairs in the sun and shade and enjoy music.
Sadly we were let down by whoever organised this year’s event when they took the music inside the Town Hall, was this because they couldn’t charge and serve their cheese and wine outside? Sorry but in doing so it took away all the atmosphere in the streets. To top it off they moved the music from the rotunda to the other side of Leslie Park again, losing the atmosphere - glad to see they left the Killarney Bonfire alone, it was fantastic as usual. One of my friend’s comments was heaps of jumpers but not much jazz in Warwick! I hope next year it is back in the main street and rotunda. Name withheld on request.
Have your say in the Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey The Australian Bureau of Statistics will be giving all eligible Australians the opportunity to express their view on whether Australian marriage laws should be changed to allow same sex couples to marry. Survey forms will be sent to all eligible Australians on the Commonwealth Electoral Roll. To participate, you must be enrolled. Enrol, check or update your details at www.aec.gov.au or pick up an enrolment form at any AEC office or Post Office.
HELL-BENT ON REVENUE This council seems hell-bent on finding new ways of extracting revenue from some of its ratepayers. Not only do we have to endure constantly increasing rates, but landholders are now required to spend considerable time documenting and justifying their continual efforts in pest weed and animal control. In my life I have assisted with the removal of boxthorns and other weeds many times across my father’s farm and in recent years on my own farm. It is unfortunately a neverending task; seeds are carried in by birds, the wind, in flood waters, by animals on vehicles, (council tractors and slashers which have managed to spread “love grass” from one end of the shire to the other). People who dump their unwanted pets and their offspring in the country rather than dispose of them correctly! Weed and feral animal control is a continual process which has been going on for hundreds of years and will continue into the future, regardless of what these councillors think will happen. That is why I reckon this is just a money grab by a council which is carrying a very large overdraft. Most farmers I know are very busy people, trying to make ends meet, in many cases with off-farm work as well as running their farms which is a seven day a week job. What do rural landholders get for our rates - in some cases nothing. The only service we can expect to utilise for our rates money are the roads and some of these outside the towns are in an appalling state of disrepair. I have a farm up the Emu Creek Road and the road is an utter disgrace. I have to travel up and down it in a truck or 4x4 and it shakes you to bits and wrecks your vehicle. It is not even a fully gravelled road, with sections that are just mud when it rains. It has been years since any decent repair work has been carried out up there, other than flood recovery work which was most likely funded by state or federal governments. Another example is Jack Smiths Gully Road which is one continual pothole patch-up job. This road has heavy truck traffic on it every day and some sections have needed resurfacing for many years. The provision of decent roads is a vital council responsibility and that is part of what our rates are for. I think the council have not only dropped the ball here, but they have well and truly lost it. Perhaps the council is trying to put the spotlight on the farmers and landholders so as to remove it from themselves. All that country ratepayers ask for are decent roads and some courteous consideration and perhaps a five or 10-year plan for the eradication of pest weed and animals and that they understand that it is a continual process that will go on forever. George McConville, Yangan.
The roll will close on Thursday August 24 for this survey.

THE building and pest inspection is a crucial part of the property buying process, especially living in a climate such as Queensland where termites can be a hidden problem. It is an important tool for both buyers and sellers because it can result in the termination of a contract in some instances. When buyers visit an open home, unless they are a qualified building inspector it’s unlikely they can spot the hidden issues that a building can have. A building and pest inspection is generally designed to reveal the hidden bones of the building, looking at structural integrity, any renovation work and its structural soundness, as well as identifying any past or present pest and termite activity. It is vital that a buyer investigates thoroughly prior to purchase to ensure that there are no expensive and unexpected problems with a property. As a buyer proceeds through the steps of buying a property, it is highly recommended that any contract that is drawn up is subject to a building and pest inspection. Depending on the outcome of the inspection (and the specific contract terms), a building and pest report can provide the means to terminate the purchase should anything unsatisfactory be revealed. From the seller’s side of the transaction, it is something agents often urge sellers to consider doing - have your own building and pest inspection done so that you can present potential buyers with the report. It’s a good idea for two reasons. Firstly, it conveys transparency and helps potential buyers have confidence that they can trust the seller and the agent. At the very least it gives them an independent third party they can talk to further about the property. And secondly, if the property is going to
auction and buyers arrive on auction day without having done their due diligence, it is an opportunity to reassure them that the building is sound. Or it can present any flaws or issues that the building may have in a clear, independently verified report. This is important because it helps build trust. It shows the buyers that the sellers aren’t hiding anything and are being open and transparent about all aspects of the building. One final note about building and pests inspections. Many people think it’s possible to use this report as a reason to terminate the purchase but it’s not always that simple. Firstly, a seller is not required to rectify any problems discovered. Secondly, the REIQ standard building and pest condition does not give an automatic right to terminate a contract - the buyer must act reasonably. This will depend on the age of the property, the extent of the problems identified and the costs associated with rectification. Major structural issues or severe termite infestation are some examples where it may be reasonable to terminate but discovering a defect that may only require minor expenditure to repair may not be valid grounds for termination. The purpose of the building and pest inspection is not to seek a sale price reduction or fund changes to the property after the contract has been signed. For example, as a buyer you can’t seek a $15,000 price reduction to fund a complete repainting of the house. Remember, even if you, as a buyer, discover a defect in the property, you can always seek to negotiate with the seller rather than terminating the contract. Talk to the real estate agent or your lawyer about your options so you can make an informed decision. ● - Courtesy REIQ freetimes.com.au

WHAT’S ON ROMAN SET FOR RECITAL
RACE ON DOWN
TO THE SPRINTS A little pre-war car that once tried to win Australia’s biggest motor race will return as a star of the 22nd Historic Leyburn Sprints this weekend. Already 10 years old, the MG TB single-seater driven by Jack Nind retired with engine failure during the 1949 Australian Grand Prix at Leyburn, the biggest event in the history of the tiny Darling Downs town and a forerunner of the modern-day Formula One race in Melbourne. After contesting three other Australian Grands Prix and many other events over the years, the MG will take another run at a Leyburn win in the annual round-the-houses sprints alongside more than 200 other historic, classic and performance cars. It is owned by Colin Schiller of Cambooya, near Leyburn, and will be raced by his daughter Belinda. Sprints president Tricia Chant says the MG’s appearance helps maintain the traditional connection between the event and the 1949 grand prix. “It’s extraordinary that this car still even exists, as some grand prix entrants didn’t survive the era. But to have it find a new home here on the Darling Downs not far from Leyburn and to have it running next weekend is truly wonderful,” she said. “It will be a treat to see such an historic car, well preserved despite a long competition career and one of the oldest entries this year.” One of the most treasured events on the Australian historic motorsport calendar, the sprints are set to maintain their reputation for the unique, unusual and unbeatable. The oldest cars will be two 1925 Austins and the youngest a 2017 Cobra. Across more than nine decades of motoring history, the line-up for two days of time trials will
This MG TB single-seater driven by Jack Nind will be one of the stars of this weekend's Leyburn Sprints. feature racing, sports and touring cars of many types. Dean Amos from Lismore NSW will seek his fourth straight win for outright fastest time on the onekilometre course in a Formula Onepowered Gould Judd V8, while Keith Carling will defend his Historic trophy in a Tiga SC80 sports car. Michael Von Rappard (Dallara F392), Harold Von Rappard (Dallara D94), Steven Woodbridge (Dallara F396) and Rielly Brook Taatus Formula Renault will be rapid contenders to beat Amos’s 42.5447-second record. Representing golden eras of Le Mans sports car racing will be a Jaguar D-Type and Ford GT40 replicas. Phil Pratt from Canberra will race an all-electric Hooper sports car. Rally fans will see a genuine ex-World Rally Toyota Celica GTFour and a thundering safari-style Mercedes-Benz 450SLC V8, brought from Adelaide by brothers Stuart and Angus Bowes, plus a rare Lancia Delta Integrale. With racing from 8am both days,
Flair Action Sports stunt bike show, vintage caravan display, Shannons Show ‘n’ Shine, pub bands at night, markets and many other attractions, the sprints promise plenty of inexpensive family entertainment, Tricia Chant says. The community-run sprints are supported by Tourism and Events Queensland’s Queensland Destination Events Program and assist local organisations and projects including, this year, the Leyburn State School. 2017 Leyburn Sprints ... * This weekend, Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 August * Tickets: Adult day $20, weekend $30, accompanied children Under 14 free * Competition from 8am each day, Shannons Show ‘n’ Shine, Vintage Caravan Show, Flair Action Sports stunt show, bands, markets * Entry list - see attached For more information visit www. historicleyburnsprints.com.au ●
On Sunday 10 September at 2pm, Robert Channon Wines will host international concert pianist Roman Rudnytsky, who will be giving a recital in their Swigmore Hall. Roman has played in more than 100 countries and has been a soloist with many orchestras around the world, playing with them over 45 different works for piano and orchestra. He is a prize-winner in 10 national and international piano competitions. He has made a number of tours to Australia and has played more than 500 concerts here. He has also served as Artist-in-Residence twice at the University of Melbourne’s Faculty of Music and at the University of Wollongong’s School of Creative Arts. “It is an enormous privilege to have an artist of Roman’s stature playing for us in Stanthorpe,” Robert said. “He played for us two years ago on his last Australian tour and the recital that he gave was just sensational. “His program this year is a delightful blend of the well-known and the virtuosic with music by Haydn, Chopin, Beethoven and Liszt. “It will be another memorable musical afternoon.” The concert is at 2pm on Sunday 10 September in the Swigmore Hall at Robert Channon Wines at Bradley Lane, Amiens. Tickets are $25. The ticket includes a glass of wine in the interval. For bookings and information call Robert Channon Wines on 4683 3260. ●

The Southern Downs Regional Council says the development of a new Bunnings outlet in Warwick represents a $16 million investment in the local economy and will create 50 new jobs. An appeal had been lodged against the approval, on vacant land at the corner of Canning and Condamine streets behind KFC, in the Condamine River floodplain. That action has since been withdrawn, due to costs. In appealing the decision, real

estate agent Helen Harm contended that nearly four metres of fill approved to be brought onto the site for construction of the new Bunnings would have a detrimental effect on future flooding. In a statement released yesterday, Mayor Tracy Dobie said she was “pleased that the development now had the approvals in place to proceed and looked forward to works commencing in the near future”. ●

THE SPIN
CHANGING FACE OF CRICKET: THE DON Interesting to read this week that as the Cricketers and Cricket Australia finally get their ducks in a row, the Bradman Centre in Bowral is preparing to host a lunch and Writer’s Forum to celebrate “The Don’s” 109th birthday on 27 August. At the centre of the discussion will be the changing face of cricket and cricket journalism. Cricket lovers and followers from around the world admired Bradman for not only his batting prowess, but also his abilities as an administrator. You have to wonder how differently he might have handled the most recent crisis. In 1987, Sir Donald Bradman said, ‘Inevitably the face of cricket changes with the passage of time. The game must adapt to the social era in which people live.’ Shame some people in the current era on both sides of the fence did not pay more heed to his words. In sport, we seem to lurch from one crisis to another and the latest is the disaster at the Titans. While we look at Bradman’s words and marvel at his insight, I can only think Graham Annesley is a little like the captain of the ill-fated Titanic if, as has been quoted he truly was “surprised” at the depth of the feud between Hayne and Henry. Talk about the elephant in the room. This Titanic disaster might just be heading for another iceberg, and we all know how that ended. Back to the cricket, with the dispute finally sorted, players put the emphasis on preparation for the summer and the upcoming touring season this week. The Australian squad headed for Darwin and some match practice. It may have only been an intra-squad match, but there was no love lost when the two sides came out to play at Marrara Oval. On day one of the game, former Territorian Jake Weatherald stole the show. The dashing bat fell agonisingly short of a fairy tale century in front of his home crowd upstaging his international teammates with a blazing 96 off just 52 balls. Weatherald who currently plays for the SA Redbacks caught the eye after coming in at number six for the David Warner XI, before falling LBW to Marcus Stoinis within sight of his ton. His quick fire innings was littered with fours and sixes, including launching several maximums over the Marrara clubhouse. The David Warner XI finished the day’s play on 6/360, with Peter Handscomb striking a classy 106 and Hilton Cartwright hitting 81. Australian captain Steve Smith said Darwin was chosen for the training camp due to the outstanding facilities in the Top End. Staff at the Marrara cricket ground have prepared pitches to help players in what will be a challenging series in Bangladesh. In an interesting aside, you have to wonder how Andrew “Roy” Symonds took the news that the team would be enjoying a spot of “barramundi fishing and crocs watching” during their stay.” Roy was sent packing after “going fishing” rather than going to a team meeting during the Australian team’s training camp in the Top End in 2008. Barramundi fishing and crocodile watching are two of the main things on the Australian cricket team’s agenda during their visit to Darwin. -Casey FOOTBALL NIGHT OF NIGHTS The Stanthorpe Football Association held their presentation night on Saturday, and 22 SOUTHERN FREE TIMES
|
Ian Jones was named Volunteer of the Year at the Football Stanthorpe Gala presentation evening. it brought together another huge crowd filling the Stanthorpe Civic Centre. The annual event is one of the biggest sporting celebrations on the Southern Downs. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of Life Membership to Ballandean Club and Football Stanthorpe stalwart Neil Newman. Newman was rightly recognised with the award for his contribution to football over the past two decades. Steve McEvoy, also a life member of Football Stanthorpe presented Newman with his Life Membership and paid tribute to the work he has done for his club and for the betterment of the game in general. McEvoy said, “Over the years Neil has held various roles within Football Stanthorpe and has always put football first - the foundation stone of a good sport’s administrator”. Among a myriad of awards presented on the night, United’s Matt Purcell and Ballandean’s John Spiller shared the award for the Men’s Player of the Year. Any Condrick has played outstanding football for Tenterfield this season, and it was no surprise when she was announced as the Women’s Player of the Year. Dillon Poltich, Inter Club picked up the Senior Colts Player of the Year. The Junior Colts Player of the Year was shared between City’s Hunter Clark and Brayden Spiller from the Ballandean Club. The Fillies Player of the Year was Danielle Musumeci of United. JUST THREE ROUNDS TO GO With just three rounds of NRL fixtures remaining, Melbourne has tightened its grip on the minor premiership after a gutsy win over the Roosters. It was not the prettiest game and neither side was at their best. Melbourne showed that even when not playing at their spectacular best, they can hang in and get points when they are needed. Suliasi Vunivalu figured in two of the biggest talking points in the game. The first the penalty try awarded to the Storm winger after he was taken down by Latrell Mitchell. The second the big winger's hurdling attempts as he sprinted off his line and tried to fly over two opponents, or something. It had coaches, commentators, players and spectators gobsmacked and rather than a gold medal Sally Pearson performance, it has cost him a hefty fine. The story of the week has been the feud
Thursday, 17 August, 2017
between coach Neil Henry and Titans marquee player Jarryd Hayne. As this column is finalised, the impasse continues. Rumours are strong that it is Henry who will pay the ultimate price. No doubt a solution of some sort will be reached by the time the team takes the field on Thursday night against the Eels. It is understood Hayne who left the ground in a moonboot last week is an unlikely starter against his former club. Either way you could not have the Titans at any price. While some are still trying, there looks to be plenty of passengers in the side. The Bunnies looked world beaters last week when they beat another club in turmoil the Bulldogs. This week they meet the Warriors at ANZ in that ludicrous 6pm time slot. The Warriors had no answers against the Raiders and their home press and supporters are baying for blood following another disappointing season. Another Bunnies win here I think. One of the games of the round must be the Suncorp clash between the Broncs and the Dragons. It should have been no surprise that the Broncos and Suncorp rained on Paul Gallen’s parade last week as he celebrated his 300th game milestone. Brisbane looked slick, and the players are coming into their own when the whips are cracking. Ben Hunt comes up against the club that will be his home from 2018 and adds another level of spice to the game. Brisbane will be keen to hold on to second spot on the ladder while the Dragons are trying to force their way into the eight. On the strength of recent performances, the Broncos in a tough game. The Knights caused a few flutters last week and cruelled a few tipsters with an upset win over the Eels. This week they host the competition leaders and if they put them to the sword, it will be an upset for the ages although they are playing great football. Who knows - is this the loss Melbourne needs before their run to the finals. I doubt it, but stranger things have been known to happen. The Roosters looked likely winners against Melbourne before a last-minute try sank their chances. This week they take on the Tigers at Allianz on Saturday afternoon.
The Tigers set the cat among the pigeons themselves last weekend when they came from what looked an impossible position to upset the Sea Eagles. The Roosters will need to be on their toes here. Any napping, and they will find their feathers flying. Although Cowboys coach Paul Green won’t entertain the idea, the captain’s curse got another in Round 23 as Michael Morgan succumbed to a concussion injury. It is unclear if he will be fit to play this weekend. The injury concerns don’t end with Morgan, Lachlan Coote showed plenty of ticker to play on last week after suffering a leg injury in the game and Justin O’Neill looks to be gone for the rest of the season with an ugly elbow injury. Despite the doom and gloom, the coach refuses to write them off. I wish I shared his confidence. This week they host the Sharks smarting after their loss to the Broncos. If the Cowboys win this, then I will become a believer that they are still in the race to the big dance. The result of the Canberra clash between the Raiders and Panthers will be a telling one. The Raiders sit outside the eight, but aren’t done with yet and if they miss the cut can still be nuisance value. I think they have been playing well enough to stop the Panthers prowl. The round starts on an underwhelming note, and will possible finish that way as the Sea Eagles and Doggies go head to head at ANZ. The Eagles should have won last week and will be keen to erase that memory. As for the Dogs, they are simply a walking disaster. ROOSTERS SEAL SEASON The Inglewood Roosters finished the BRL fixtures off in style last weekend on their home turf at McIntyre Oval. The Roosters finished minor premiers, and are hot favourites to win back-to-back premierships. On Saturday in the final of the BRL double headers, the home side was far too strong for the Killarney Cutters who the week before upstaged the Tigers. The Roosters Brent “Bronco” Osbourne was best on ground again, and is having an outstanding season. The Cutters had only 13 players at the start of the game and trailed 30-4 at half time. Forward Jakob Hoffman left the field with suspected broken ribs, and things did not get better for the visitors when Ian Brown suffered an ankle injury. Inglewood, in the meantime, piled on the tries. Killarney finished the game with only 10 players on the paddock. The score line 66-8. The Killarney players never took a backward step even when they were reduced to 10 players. In a great effort, winger Clayton Frank crossed for Killarney’s second try during this period. In the earlier game, the Tenterfield Tigers also went into their game against the Stanthorpe Gremlins with plenty of injury concerns and only 14 players for much of the game. The Tigers finished the regular season with a 52-26 win over the Gremlins. It was one of the best games the Gremlins have played all season, and it was pleasing for officials to see good player numbers turn up for the game after their shellacking the previous week. It is the end of the road in 2017 for the young Gremlins side, but they will be a better side in 2018. The action moves back to Rugby League Park this weekend for the knock out semifinal. Both the home side and Killarney will be hoping to get some of their wounded back on the paddock. Tenterfield will start favourites in the game despite their recent loss to the Cutters. freetimes.com.au

ON THE GREEN AT THE ‘GARRA Wallangarra golfers have been very active over the past two weeks. The Wallangarra Railway Cafe once again sponsored the Monthly Medal and putting two weeks ago. Wayne Davis won the big prize with Steve Hampstead, picking up the runner-up spoils. There were several really interesting holes; a number of osbtructions from tee to green, but all players had an enjoyable and interesting day. Last Saturday, the winner and runner-up from the previous week teamed up to play a Two Ball Ambrose competition. The winners scored nett 58 runners-up Jamie Purcell and his swinger scoring nett 61 1/4. Captain Stakes went to Kevin Williams and Brendan McMillan with 65 1/4 Nett. This weekend, members will play a single stableford and the following week the club has scheduled a four club event (as if the game isn’t hard enough already with 14). A reminder that all vistors and juniors are always welcome to join the fun and frivolity. THREE EVENTS MAKE FOR A BUSY DAY The Inglewood Sporting Shooters held three events on Sunday, making it a busy time for shooters. In the single action, Iain Bowen came up trumps with a win, filling the places were Peter Solomon and Tom Donald. Down on the benches, it was a battle of wills in the 100m. Monika White eventually took out the vent with an impressive score, relegating Stephanie Dudgeon and Richard White to second and third place. Monika then went on to take out the 50m shoot out, scoring Richard White and Ross Jackson. This weekend, members and visitors are invited to join in the Pistol Practical Shooting Match, Muzzle loading and Centrefire. Why not check out all the action on the Bosnjak Road Range. WIN FOR BYRNES Paul Byrnes made the most of the perfect conditions on Sunday morning at
Looking down the line with Inglewood Sporting Shooters stalwart Tom Donald during the weekend’s competition. Stanthorpe Sporters and finished the round with a winning score ahead of runnerup one of Sporters stalwarts Ray Thorn. Michael Thompson scored the best gross and Terry Byrnes and John Rawlings figured in the run downs. Runner-up Ray Thorn also took the pin shot on the 12th and Mark Lynam picked up the pin at the 17th. The pro pin went the way of Paul Byrnes as did one of the meat trays. Ray Thorn slipped out with the remaining meat tray. Tee off is at the regular time of 8am 8.30am. Why not join the Sporters for an entertaining Sunday morning hit. COURTSIDE AT CROQUET A scheduled club meeting meant that association croquet last week was cut short. Jenny Tunbridge was in blistering form when play got underway. She scored a 20-5 win over Val Shephard and Effey Russel. In

other games, Margaret Dickenson and Val Richardson combined for a 13 - 11 win over Heather Widderick and Andrea Denkewitz and Sharyn Roser had an 8-4 win over Grace Howard. Golf croquet players later in the week enjoyed almost perfect playing conditions, and there was a great vibe around the club. Good to see most players scoring evenly. There was only five hoops between the highest and lowest scorers of the day. Once again, Bev Sullivan gets special mention. Her outstanding form continued this week. Sullivan had the highest score and also claimed a hoop in one. In the first round of games, Shirley Page and Justin Liddy defeated Elaine Brown and Marian Castles 13-7. The inform Bev Sullivan played two balls to score and defeated Judy lock and Pauline Inglis 13-6. Following the break, a series of shortened games were played. In a tight game, Bev Sullivan and Elaine Brown had a narrow 6-5 win over Judy Lock and Justin Liddy. Sharyn Roser joined with Pauline Inglis to notch up a 9 -7 win in their game against Marian Castles and Shirley Page. GOOD NUMBERS AT GATEBALL There were plenty of platers on deck for last week’s gateball games. Sharyn Roser, Pat Schnoor, Grace Howard, Effey Russell and Bill Golding made up Team One. Margaret Dickenson headed Team Two along with, Heather Widderick, John Draper, Jenny Tunbridge and Val Fancourt. Andrea Denkewitz refereed. In the opening two games, Team One played the White balls and Team Two Red. Scores were locked at 10 points all at the end of the 30 minutes of the first game. Both teams had the same number of one, two and three-point scores (no one scored a 5 pointer) and a 'shoot-out’ was required to determine the winner. Red (Team Two) won 6 -5. In another tight game, Team One
(White) won the second game 11 - 9. As the morning green dried out, it became more challenging for players to keep the ball on court or to play a 'spark’ correctly. After the break, teams swapped colours, and in the third game White (Team Two) scored a two-point win another tight game - the final score 11 - 8. They went on to win the final game 14-10. Heather Widderick, Pat Schnoor, Sharyn Roser and Val Fancourt all played some good shots at different stages throughout play. On Saturday afternoon, Andrea Denkewitz and Margaret Dickenson teamed up to play Val Fancourt and Bill Golding, and won all three games.(Scores were11 - 8, 12 - 10 and 14 - 7). ROUND OF THE DAY Rino Piovesan pulled the round of the day out of his bag to ensure he took out a win in the stroke event held last Saturday. Piovesan returned an impressive net score of 62 to take the top honours. Following the round, the winner revealed while he was pleased with the score it could have been even better if one or two more of his close putts had found their mark. Runner-up, Rick Kelly, also carded a good score. In recent weeks nett 66 would have netted a winning score. Unfortunately, Rino rained on that parade this week and Kelly has to settle for the runners-up honours. Matt Waterworth didn’t go home empty handed, collecting the balls on offer after winning the pin shots at 3 and 12 and the pro-pin at 1/10. ●
