A vote for change By Esther Lauaki The Macedon Ranges community has been successful in its campaign for a tree-change, with six new faces elected to council. Councillors elect were declared yesterday and will be sworn in on November 7. Most of the new council will be women, with five females voted in for three wards. Two new faces, Bill West and Natasha Gayfer, have been elected to the East ward while Henry Bleeck, who was last a councillor in 2005, has been re-elected. Former mayor Graham Hackett and former councillor Ian Ellis were unsuccessful in their bids for re-election. Mr West, a former journalist, received more than 18 per cent of first preference votes in the East, putting his poll success down to the “recognition factor”. “I’ve lived in this area for most of my life,” he said. “I have been part of the Riddells Creek community for many years. I know the people and they know me whether it’s through sports clubs or community groups. “There were a lot of people looking for change and I’m pleased to be representing them.” An all new line-up for the South ward includes Mandi Mees, Andrew Twaits and Helen Radnedge. Mandi Mees dominated the polls in South ward, finishing with 23 per cent of first votes. Ms Radnedge, Friends of Daly Nature Reserve president, said she’s excited by the opportunity to serve for the first time on council. “I’m very happy with the result,” she said. “My aim is to see our council make sensible decisions that care for our community and our environment.” Ms Radnedge said her priorities are meaningful consultation, safer roads, improved planning, environmental protection and healthy waterways. Former councillors Russell Mowatt and John Letchford were unsuccessful in regaining their seats in the South ward. Former councillors Jennifer Anderson and Roger Jukes are back in for the West ward, and will be joined by newcomer Janet Pearce. Ms Anderson was the favourite in the West ward taking 21 per cent of first preference votes. The new mayor of Macedon Ranges council will be elected on November 17. Meanwhile in Hume’s Jackson’s Creek ward, veteran councillors Jack Medcraft and Anne Potter have been re-elected, while Leigh Johnson replaces outgoing Sunbury councillor Jack Ogilvie.

The Meyer family is made of tough stuff. The Romsey clan has produced four generations of woodchop champions, and recently notched up another win, taking home an impressive tally of 23 ribbons from this year’s Royal Melbourne Show. For almost 70 years, the Meyers have been competing in woodchop events around Australia, and the world – starting in 1948 when Les Meyer first competed. Les passed on his skills and passion to his sons, grandsons and great grandsons. Seven of the Meyers travelled from Romsey and Broadford to compete at this year’s show, including Les’s grandson Brad, who said that woodchopping had become a proud family tradition. “When I was younger, I saw woodchopping as a way that I could really bond with my dad, and I grew to love the sport,” Brad said. “I think my boys now see it the same way … My sons, Blake and Kyle, and nephews Brayden and Luke have been competing for about eight to 10 years.” Brayden, a fourth generation woodchopper, has clinched the Stihl Timbersports Champions Trophy in Austria and a number of world titles at shows around Australia. But it is not just Mayer men who compete in woodchopping competitions. “This year my sister-in-law Janet competed in the inaugural women’s cross-cut sawing at the Melbourne Show,” Brad said. “There were many women’s events this year, and it was great to see so many talented women showing off their skills at such an important event for the sport.” Brad has worked in the timber industry for almost 30 years and currently contracts for VicForests, along with his two sons. VicForests’ general manager Nathan Trushell said the department places a lot of importance on supporting the communities they work in throughout Victoria. “Many timber industry workers, like the Meyers, are the fourth, fifth or sixth generation of forestry industry workers in their family.” Esther Lauaki

Pup laws a ‘knee-jerk reaction’ By Esther Lauaki Dog owners who find themselves with a litter of puppies to sell will have to register as a domestic animal business if proposed dog laws get out of the gate. Reforms to the Domestic Animal Act were tabled in Parliament in recent weeks and, if the legislation passes, dog owners will have to comply with commercial breeding regulations from which they were previously exempt. Agriculture Minister Jaala Pulford is looking to toughen dog breeding laws targeting puppy
farms, at which thousands of puppies are reared in sometimes squalid and cruel conditions. The reforms aimed to eradicate all puppy farms and entice more families to adopt abandoned pets. Macedon chow breeder Judith-Ann Robertson was one of more than 500 pedigree dog breeders who gathered at the Bulla Exhibition Centre last month. She feels like she has been caught in the crossfire. Under the proposed regulations, anyone owning six or more breeding dogs must house
them in a commercial grade kennel with concrete floors, six-foot high solid walls and built-in heating and cooling. Ms Robertson said there were usually three or four pups in a chow litter and she charged $3000 for a pup. Quotes from builders suggest a code-compliant kennel will cost about $200,000. She said it was a knee-jerk reaction to fulfil a government election promise. “It is basically taking a steamroller to crush a peanut,” she said. “If I have to invest $200,000 to build a kennel facility on my property, how
Bushranger apprentice comes home William Lee says he channeled a 17-year-old version of himself in his leading role in a new film. The 25-year-old Sydney-based actor plays bushranging gang member John Dunn in the Legend of Ben Hall, which premieres this month. Born and raised in Gisborne, Dunn returned home to the Macedon Ranges with members of the cast and crew, who lodged at Campaspe Downs while filming on location in Kyneton in 2014. The Legend of Ben Hall is based on a true story of a New South Wales bushranger who was an icon of Australian folklore and arguably the most prolific bushranger in the country, surpassing even Ned Kelly in terms of criminal activity. Director Matthew Holmes, with the help of historian Peter Bradley, researched and developed the screenplay. Lee says he answered the casting call because he felt the role was a perfect fit. “I’d been acting for a few years and was tagged in a Facebook post where producers were looking for someone with experience riding horses,” Lee said. “I’d grown up in Gisborne around horses my whole life … I thought, ‘That’s me’.” He says he drew on his teenage years to connect with his character. “I was 23 at the time and my character was the new 17-year-old recruit into the gang, so I had to throw back to how I was as a teenager,” Lee said. “I also came back home to where I grew up, so it really was like going back in time. “It’s a huge deal for the Macedon Ranges, and it’s also a great story to help kids growing up in the Macedon Ranges – that you can do whatever you set your mind to. For me, that was to become an actor.” The Legend of Ben Hall premieres on November 12 in Forbes with a pre-release tour during the remainder of the month, including screenings in country Victoria.

do I recover that money? Do I start charging $5000, do I start charging $10,000? Average families aren’t going to be able to afford a purebred dog.” Ms Pulford said the legislation needed to be judged alongside steps already taken by the government – introduction of mandatory, pre-mating vet checks and a lifetime five-litter limit for every breeding dog. She says the legislation will affect only a small proportion of an estimated 10,000 breeders in Victoria and there will be no future shortage of puppies.
Bushfire compo helps rebuild Lancefield Sports upgrades, including a skate park and BMX track, are among new projects at Lancefield Park sharing in a $800,000 state government windfall, compensation for last year’s Lancefield-Cobaw fire. In all, seven projects have been funded, including upgrades to netball and tennis courts, the main oval, cricket clubrooms, the playground and bowls club, along with the skate park, BMX track and buying a new tractor. Work on a $450,000 project to build new female-friendly change rooms and public toilets at Lancefield football, netball and tennis clubs began last month. The projects follow the release of the emergency management inspector-general’s final report into the Lancefield-Cobaw fire inquiry. In the report, the IGEM found that the environment, land, water and planning department had taken on board 19 of 22 recommendations and all 10 commitments. The three final outstanding recommendations will be implemented as part of Safer Together, Victoria’s new bushfire management approach. Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio said it is important the government acts swiftly in responding to the commission findings, to rebuild community trust. “The Lancefield Park renewal project has brought the community together to have their say on what matters to them, and how they want to use their park today and into the future.” Esther Lauaki

Festival gives thanks More than 2000 people are expected at the Riddells Creek Twilight Festival next month to celebrate the resilience of their community. Event organiser Nicole Garbutt, of Riddells Creek Neighbourhood House, says the November 26 festival, now in its second year, came about as a way to bring the community together after devastating bushfires swept the area in 2014. “We planned the festival as a way to say thank-you to the firefighters, who worked so hard to protect us,” Ms Garbutt says. “It is an event for the whole community, where
residents can catch up with friends … and welcome new residents.” Last year, more than 2500 people attended, and this year there will be more rides and entertainment, she says, plus more than 70 stalls showcasing local food, products and services. Activities will include an animal farm, pony rides, a huge slide, a jumping castle and a Riddells Got Talent competition. Station Street in Riddells Creek, will be blocked off to vehicle traffic from 2pm. Details: 5428 7836 or email rcnh@westnet.com.au Esther Lauaki

Third hit on Thorpe memorial By Esther Lauaki A memorial honouring the contribution of rocker Billy Thorpe to the Sunbury Pop Festival has been vandalised for the third time in recent years. A fortnight ago, a vandal attempted to peel back the plaque from its base overlooking the site of the 1970s festivals in Diggers Rest. The plaque was the third at the site after the original was stolen in 2012 (it later turned up in a Sunbury charity bin more than 18 months later), and another replica was stolen about a year ago. Sunbury woman and founder of the Sunbury
Pop/Rock Festivals 1972-1975 Facebook page, Debra Sweeney, said the recent vandalism from Holden Reserve was disrespectful to Thorpe’s family and a generation of fans. “It’s very disappointing,” Ms Sweeney said. “A lot of people are disgusted and feel that it’s very disrespectful to [Thorpe] and his wife, Lynn. “Either people are wanting it for a souvenir, or people just want the metal to sell. “I found the original stolen four years ago … around the same time the miniature railway nearby had its fittings and brass parts stolen, and then the plaques from gravestones at Bulla cemetery were stolen as well.”
She said Thorpe was regarded at the “king of rock”. “He was very influential at that time to a lot of young people,” she said. “His performance at Sunbury was unbelievable.” Ms Sweeney said that a better and more secure way of protecting the marker was needed – or it could be time for a more lavish statue or museum to safeguard the slice of Australian music history, she said. “I think we should have a statue of Billy Thorpe,” Ms Sweeney said. “He made such an impression of people back then and I’ve seen similar tributes for the Bee Gees and they are done beautifully.”

Get on board, girls urged More girls will be getting amongst the skate park action once they sharpen their skills at this month’s Girls Can Shred workshop. The workshop, which was planned for September but was rained out, has been rescheduled for this Saturday, November 5. Girls aged between 12 and 25 are urged to get down to Kyneton skate park for the female-only workshop that aims to empower young women to be more involved in action sports. Macedon Ranges council partnered with XtremeInc for the beginner workshops, led by experienced instructors Jodie Hearn and Beth Allan. Ms Hearn says skaters will learn to be more confident and comfortable using their local skate park. “No experience is needed for these workshops, just a great attitude,” she says.
“Girls will be able to learn the basics of getting up on their boards, balancing, rolling, kick-turning, ollies and more.” More advanced skaters will receive tips on moves such as getting up and down ramps. Riders are required to bring their own skateboard, but safety gear will be supplied. There will be prizes, demonstrations by the Lanbrohini skate team, activities, a barbecue and more. The workshop runs from 10.30am until noon. Details: www.xtremeinc.org Esther Lauaki Jodie Hearn will be an instructor for a girls’ skate workshop. (Luke Hemer)

Chopper adds to CFA strike power By Esther Lauaki There’ll be extra firepower on hand for Country Fire Authority crews in the Macedon Ranges this summer. North west regional commander Mark Gilmore said a new firefighting helicopter will be available when needed, as recommended by the Victorian Bushfire Royal Commission. The new helicopter will stand alongside 26 other aircraft servicing regions around the state, and would be dispatched from Mangalore Airport, about 90 kilometres from the Macedon
Ranges near Seymour, in a bushfire emergency, Mr Gilmore said. “They will get the same page that ground crews receive, dispatch and be arriving at fire grounds at the same time,” Mr Gilmore said. “It will give us a lot more success during the first attack and, in doing so, means volunteers can spend less time at fire grounds, and get back to the business, back to work and back to their families.” He said the advantage of this more rapid-strike approach was the much greater prospect of keeping wild fires small.
More than 40 volunteers and professional emergency workers met at a recent pre-season briefing in Gisborne – one of the many fire preparation briefings already this season. “There has been an enormous amount of grass growth and, because of that, we are looking at a challenging year for fast-moving grass fires,” Mr Gilmore said. While the worst fire danger period is likely to be later this season because of late rains, the north and west of the state could have fire restrictions imposed within a month, he said. Starting next week, Forest Fire Management
Victoria will start slashing about 1500 hectares of public land in central Victoria in preparation for the bushfire season. Forest Fire Management Victoria district manager Paul Bates, said works have been slightly delayed this season due to recent rains. “Reducing bushfire risk is a shared responsibility,” he said. ‘Reducing fuel loads on public land can only do so much – our modelling shows a significant amount of bushfire risk is on privately owned land because of thick vegetation and high populations.” Call 136 186 to report areas of concern.
Mount grows on grapes Melbourne, broadening its appeal as a day-trip destination. “We’re committed to investing in Victoria’s world-class wine industry,” Ms Thomas said. “Supporting Mount Towrong Vineyard alongside Macedon’s premier grape growers and winemakers, will drive tourism to the area, increase direct wine sales and create jobs.” Victoria’s wine industry comprises 800 wineries and 3000 vineyards, employing 12,000 people and generating $1.5 billion each year, she said. Applications for next year’s second grant round will be open to Victorian wine businesses and organisations, including growers, producers and wine marketers.

The Victorian government is pouring money into the Macedon Ranges to help bolster its wine industry. Mount Towrong Vineyard will receive $20,000 from the state to establish a new cellar door and café, with the aim of strengthening the area’s tourism appeal and increasing direct wine sales. The funding, from the government’s $1 million wine growth fund, was provided on a co-contribution basis, matching dollar for dollar the amount put in by the business. A total of $720,000 will go towards 41 projects across Victoria’s 21 wine regions. Other wineries in the Macedon Ranges to secure support in the first round included Kyneton Ridge Estate, Lyons Will Estate and Guildford Vineyard and Cellar. Macedon MP Mary-Anne Thomas said the project at Mount Towrong Vineyard is set to capitalise on Mount Macedon’s proximity to

Slip, slop, slap – it’s an adage created to help Australians adapt to the unique environment in which we live.
Screen time in summer’s arsenal
Most Aussies are familiar with the severity of the Australian sun and with one of the highest skin cancer rates in the world, it’s imperative we protect ourselves. But along with seeking shade, sliding on sunglasses, slipping into a shirt and slapping on a hat, sunscreens are an important part of the sunsmart message. Here are some things to look for when buying and wearing sunscreen this summer:
NOW OPEN
• For maximum benefit, consider purchasing a sunscreen that’s SPF 50+. SPF50+ offers only marginally better protection from ultra violet B (UVB) radiation than SPF30+, but it filters out 98 per cent of UVB radiation, compared to the 96.7 per cent blocked by SPF30+.
Local access to cataract, retinal, corneal, paediatrics, plastics and general ophthalmology.
Lotions and milks: Most sunscreen comes in the form of milks and lotions. They have the advantage of being cheap, easy to apply and non-drying. But they may leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy. Creams: They tend to be thicker and come in tubes instead of bottles. Gels: These are alcohol-based and won’t leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy, although they may have a drying effect. They may be more comfortable if you have a lot of body hair. Sprays: These are alcohol-based, so they’re non-greasy, but may dry your skin. They’re easy to apply and great for hairy bodies – but make sure you use enough.
1236723-RC31-16 10041548-02
Cataract Surgery Treatment of chronic eye diseases State of the art technology and diagnotic tools Providing primary health care in a friendly, caring environment Local access to cataract surgery specialists performed at the Sunbury Day Hospital with state of the art specific eye surgery dedicated operating rooms Co-management plans with your local optometrist Consultations by appointment only
• When it comes to methods of application, it’s a matter of choice.
Roll-ons: They’re easy to apply to small areas but difficult to apply evenly over a larger area. They’re handy to keep in your bag. Sticks: A sunscreen stick is probably only useful for small areas such as faces. They’re dry, mess-free and compact. Water resistance: If you’re going swimming, look for a product that says it’s water resistant. But remember, even if the label says it’s water resistant, re-applying is a must. Products for children and people with sensitive skin: Sunscreens should only be used on small areas of a baby’s skin and only if there’s no other protection available, such as clothing and shade. Some sunscreens are marketed specifically for toddlers, infants, children and people with sensitive skins.
Dr. Christolyn Raj Dr. Nima Pakrou Dr Heathcote Wright
Sunscreens with insect repellent: Insect repellents can reduce a sunscreen effectiveness by about a third.
9740 9555
Remember, sunscreen is only a secondary and partial defence. First and foremost, try to avoid the sun in the middle of day. If you do go out, wear a broad-brimmed hat, a dense-weave shirt and sunglasses.

The good news is, it’s never too late to start on the road to a healthier you. And with the sun out longer, you can use this as motivation to update your fitness regimes and get beach-ready. Here are some tips to help you spring into shape. 1. Rain, hail or shine, don’t sacrifice your training regime. Maintaining good training habits can ensure you stay in shape. If an early morning run is not your thing, signing up to a gym to train can ensure you never miss a work-out session.
2. Reduce your amount of sitting. Doctors recommend you shouldn’t sit for more than three hours per day, so preventing long times seated can ensure you burn a few extra calories.
of combined Professional • Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)-Enquire within Osteopathic Care experience. Dr Lois Groves D.O Dr Tim McCormick
3. Give it time. Everybody wants fast results, but remember you won’t see results overnight. Depending on where you start, it could take a few weeks; just remember not to let a lack of immediate results discourage you from continuing. Dedication will eventually see changes and when you do, your confidence and motivation will boost you to new levels. Eleanor Tabone

hey say a journey is a series of steps towards a destination. Braemar College has recently completed an important step towards achieving its vision of becoming an Early Learning–Year 12 school, with council approval for the first stage of Braemar’s Woodend campus. The site is located on 320 acres, just down the hill from the current Mt Macedon campus. Not only is it a beautiful setting, it also provides an alternative venue in the event of a bushfire. The new campus will initially be home to Middle School students (Years 5–8). To complete this step, Braemar College has undertaken native vegetation studies, obtained appropriate road easements and ensured biocorridor links for native fauna are preserved. In addition, the project’s construction

Olde worlde gardens, chockful of cottage charm, are a perfect complement to this weatherboard from the 1950s, which shows a few nips and tucks made decades on. It would respond beautifully to a revamp, but is good as is. There’s a spacious L-shaped lounge-dining room with gas heater framed in slate and a later-added rumpus room which accesses the back, north-facing deck and one of three bedrooms. Linking with entry hall and rear vestibule, the kitchen has timber cabinetry and an electric upright cooker. A laundry and toilet are off the vestibule. The block of about 1030 square metres also has a carport and large lock-up garage with attached workshop. This prize is within four and 10-minute strolls of the village centre and train station respectively.
A great starter for a young family or a equally great investment, this is a place with lots of promise. Some rooms have undergonne a stylish revamp, others are fine as-is, but looking for a clever decorating hand. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, while the remaining pair (with wardrobes) share a cracker new bathroom with freestanding tub, grey floor and wall tiling and floating vanity unit. Two light-filled living zones flank an appealingly updated kitchen with a timeless charcoal-and-white palette; floorboards anchor the entire area. A pergola covering brick paving runs along nearly the entire side. The block of about 585 square metres includes parking for three cars behind a remote-controlled door, and a powered garage-shed with concrete floor. Schools, a kindergarten, childcare and sporting facilities are within a stroll.

“Sussex” - 2 Romsey Road, Woodend. An iconic circa 1931 landmark property with subdivision potential. This wonderfully spacious Art Deco Country Home is set on a generous 8187m² block. It is surrounded by mature trees and park-like gardens. This property comes with the additional attraction of a separate cottage, which could be used for additional family accommodation, a B&B, or as a brilliant studio.

SPORT Key signing adds potency to Roos’ attack Sunbury Kangaroos have added some firepower to their squad for next year’s Riddell District Football League season. The club last week announced it had signed key forward Josh Burgess, who crosses from the Sunbury Lions. Burgess was a vital cog for the Lions team that made the Ballarat Football League grand final this year before losing to Bacchus Marsh. The forward kicked 29 goals in 19 games this year. Kangaroos coach Jarrod Dixon said they had identified the need of another key forward to work with Ryan Pretty. “We identified our weak points, where we need to get stronger,” Dixon said. “Burgess fills one of those roles. He has been part of the BFL representative squad and you want to bring in quality players who are at that
level, and he’s got a lot of mates at the club.” Dixon said the club needed a greater spread of goalkickers if it was to close the gap with the top sides. The Kangaroos finished seventh this year, missing the finals on percentage. Pretty, who kicked 39 goals and Thomas Ellard (31) were the only players to exceed 20 goals for the Kangaroos. Having more firepower up forward would reduce the pressure on the resting ruckman. “Other clubs have a good spread of goalkickers,” Dixon said. “Ryan and ‘Burgo’ in tandem will help us with that. “We need multiple players kicking goals. It’s hard enough to play in the ruck without having to play another key role.” Dixon said they were looking to add a further two or three players in the next fortnight.
In this off season, he said, they’d look to fill specific positions and speak only to players who could fit the bill. The Kangaroos look to have held onto most of this year’s playing group. However, Thomas Ellard, now training with Werribee’s Victorian Football League squad, could be one omission if picked to fill a spot on the Tigers’ list. As well, Jordan and Mitchell Baumgartner have signed with fellow RDFL club Rockbank. Jordan spent a year with the Kangaroos after crossing from the Rams, while Mitchell was previously an under-18.5 best and fairest winner with the Kangaroos. Tara Murray

Jets’ star pair staying put Sunbury Jets have re-signed two of their basketball stars for next year’s Big V state championship. Monique Stevens and Chelsea Burns will return for a second season at the Jets, having been key members of the unbeaten team in this year’s division 1. Stevens was named in the division’s all-star five team, while Burns was the division 1 defensive player of the year. The Jets’ women’s side will play in the championship division next year. Meanwhile, the club is advertising for a men’s division 1 coach. It wants the coach to commit to a two to three-year term as it continues to develop its young side. The new coach will replace Andrew Summerville, who guided the team for a single season in which it finished eighth. Lisa Townsend has been named coach of the men’s youth league team. She joined the club last season as assistant coach with the division 1 women’s side, having coached and played in Women’s National and South East Australian basketball leagues. Tara Murray
GDCA tie to stand

Thunder storms to win By Tara Murray An unbeaten century from Brandon Nicholls was the catalyst for East Sunbury getting its first win of the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s B-grade season. After struggling with the bat in the opening rounds, the Thunder had a different look about it on Saturday. After sending Lancefield in, the Thunder looked in control after the first 20 overs – but that was before Tiger skipper Luke Barker got going. Barker hit an unbeaten 92, including 14 fours and a six, to help propel his side to 6-189. Thunder captain-coach Jessy Carroll said the side’s young bowlers dropped their heads when Barker got going, “He had one of those days where he was hitting everything cleanly,” Carroll said. “We bowled well for 20 overs and then dropped our
heads. It’s a learning curve for a young side like us. Sometimes it’s good to get smacked around as you can learn from it.” In reply, the Thunder was 3-34 when Carroll was out for eight. Nicholls and Matt Jackson then put on 79 runs before former captain Mark Hourigan joined Nicholls at the crease. They finished the job in the 38th over with the score on 4-194. It was Nicholls’ first game in the senior side this season. Carroll said Nicholls, who finished 109 not out, was enjoying his cricket and it was showing. “He didn’t look like going out,” Carroll said. “Matt Jackson seems to get 30 runs each week and they batted for a chunk of the innings. “Mark then came in and was able to talk Brando through it at the end.” It was the Thunder’s first win of the season and Tigers’ first loss.
Carroll said the Thunder players were slowly starting to gel together. He said it was now a matter of putting together all three facets of the game. “I’ve played in a lot of older sides in the past, where this is a younger side,” he said. “I think it’s the best bowling side I’ve played with and [that] means I’m not bowling any more. Everyone is really happy and the morale is up there, which was shown on the weekend.” Carroll said the younger players were starting to take the next step up. “Jaxon Mobilio is back, Lachie Brne – the list can go on,” he said. “The second team is full of young players, as well. “Some have been playing senior cricket since they were 14. I’m the one who gets to enjoy it.” In other results, Sunbury United defeated Bacchus Marsh, Macedon was too good for Ashfield and Wallan beat St Anthonys.
The tied result between Bacchus Marsh and Ashfield will stand in Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s B grade. Ashfield appealed the result of last week’s match, which ended in confusion after the scoreboard and scorebooks didn’t match. The scoreboard had an Ashfield win, with the players leaving the field despite an over remaining. Both scorebooks said that Bacchus Marsh was in front at that stage. The teams signed off on a tie. GDCA president Rob McIntyre said the GDCA pennant committee had decided it couldn’t pre-empt what might have happened in a final over, had it been played. “The committee felt that as both captains had agreed to a tie at the end of the match, the result should stand,” he said. “It was found that the scorebooks were not checked until a considerable time after play had finished and some players had already left the venue, which made it difficult for play to resume.”

Allen leads with his bat By Tara Murray Riddell finally opened its account in the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s McIntyre Cup season. After a couple of close losses, followed by a draw due to a wash-out, Riddell was determined to kickstart its campaign against Romsey. Captain-coach Mick Allen and Brendan Alger set the tone early putting on 140 in their opening partnership. Once Alger was gone, Daniel Fisk followed shortly afterwards, then Allen and Cameron Moran settled to push the score beyond 200. Riddell finished its innings at 4-212, with Allen responsible for 118 of these runs. But Romsey never got going in reply, with only two players reaching double figures. Captain Chris Burkett scored 63, but had little support on the way to an innings total of 8-124. Fisk took 5-14 off seven overs. Allen said he was happy his side could finally get the monkey off its back. “The first week, our bowling let us down, and then the batting let us down,” he said. “We lost one game by one wicket and another by five runs. “If we’d won them, we would have just about been at the top of the ladder,” Allen said. “It shows how close it is.” He said on Saturday, there were two things that had set up the win. The first was the opening partnership, the second the first 10 overs with the ball. Allen’s innings was his second century in three games for Riddell. “It’s been so far, so good for me, but you can’t flirt with your form … you’re only one ball away from going out. “Brendan had only had one hit when he was run out early,” Allen said. “And a few other guys got some runs. “With the ball, the aim was to restrict them early on. They were 1-20 off the first 10 overs, and that set up the bowling for us.” Allen said Riddell was getting closer to having its best side on field, after several players were unavailable for the first few weeks. He said while they had missed players, younger players had the chance to step up. “Ben Radford and Harry Fisher played early, before having school cricket, but were back in the seconds this week and made a contribution. “Alex Ryan, who was unavailable this week had played every game before this week.” In other matches, Gisborne suffered its first loss of the season at the hands of Rupertswood. Rupertswood made 184, with Gisborne falling five runs short of victory, making 8-180. Michael Treweek made 80 and took two wickets for Rupertswood. Sunbury defended 146 against Diggers Rest Bulla, while Bacchus Marsh was too good for Woodend. Woodend made 128, which Bacchus Marsh made with ease, with 12 overs and six wickets in hand.
AFL Goldfields cap points to fairer season AFL Goldfields has released its player points structure for its four competitions next season, including the Ballarat and Riddell District football leagues. The BFL will have a cap of 44 points, one point down from this year, while the RDFL will remain at 42 points. The points cap was the first part of a plan to bring down spiralling costs and try to level out competitions. The second part, a salary cap, will be introduced next season. While AFL Goldfields has set a base cap for all its leagues, as for this year, some teams have been given higher caps due to lack of success, location and a dearth of juniors. In the Ballarat league, all but two teams will have a points cap of 44. Sebastopol, which had a cap of 50 this year, and Melton South will have higher caps. AFL Goldfields has applied for both clubs to have 50 points, higher than the 48-point statewide cap set by AFL Victoria. AFL Goldfields general manager Rod Ward said the AFL Goldfields advisory committee suggested 50 points for both clubs prior to AFL Victoria releasing their figures. “AFL Goldfields will prepare a submission for the clubs indicated with the 50 points to retain that allocation for the 2017 season,” he said. “We were happy to accept what the advisory committee suggested, and if they have 50 points, we’ll be happy and we’ll also be happy if it ends up being 48 points.” In the RDFL, only four clubs will have a cap of 42 points. Similar to Melton South and Sebastopol, AFL Goldfields will apply for Melton Centrals and Rockbank to have a points cap of 50. Lancefield will have a 48 point cap, Woodend-Hesket and Wallan 47 points, Broadford and Sunbury Kangaroos 45 points and Macedon 44 points. Woodend-Hesket and Sunbury Kangaroos both have increases on last season, while three clubs have decreases. Ward said he couldn’t envisage all the RDFL clubs having the same points cap in the future, with such varying demographics in the league. “We reviewed last season’s data and thought 42 points was a more applicable level this year than the 41 we had predicted,” he said. “We identified that clubs need help to keep them sustainable. “The major cities don’t need as many points as regional or country teams, which may not have an abundance of juniors. “We don’t have a level playing ground,” Ward said. “We have some footy clubs coming from towns without schools.” The salary cap next year for the BFL is $140,000 while the RDFL’s salary cap will be $110,000.

Sunbury BMX star sees off Olympian in cup showdown A homegrown hero came out on top in Sunbury BMX Club’s biggest event of the year.
