Nightmare week for drivers in Richmond fRoM PAGE 1 “Gridlock can occur very quickly at peak times with even a minor change to normal traffic patterns, let alone a complete closure of the key arterial of SH6. As we saw, it takes a long time for the gridlock and congestion to relieve itself even after roads are reopened, as traffic has already committed to other roads that are not designed to deal with those very high flows.”

The TDC is encouraging NZTA to consider other things like upstream permanent electronic signs that could have informed road users very quickly about the closure and recommended detours, which would be faster and more effective than trying to establish contractors to put up temporary signs. “As traffic grows, and funding is not yet available for major upgrades or bypasses,

we need to look at what improvements can be made to get better efficiency out of the network we have,” says Jamie.

Roger Ashworth, maintenance contract manager NZTA, says that given the potential for serious injury, the Police Serious Crash Unit was called to the site of the Thursday crash as soon as it happened. The busy school hours, trapping the van driver, blocking the northbound lanes of SH6 south of the Richmond deviation roundabout were all reasons pointed out for the delay.

“Our traffic teams offer advice and in fact, they were diverting traffic as soon as the crash happened and had a detour route established by 4 pm with the Police,” he says.

Northbound traffic was directed right onto Oxford Street, left onto Salisbury Road, left onto Richmond Deviation, right onto SH6.

Reverse for southbound traffic.

The highway was fully reopened by 5 pm once the van driver had been safely freed and transferred to the hospital. “Given the large numbers of vehicles travelling north between 3 and 5pm, and combining two streams of traffic onto one local road route for

close to two hours, there was no way of avoiding a lot of traffic slowed down by this highway crash. There is no other route available to use apart from Salisbury Road,” says Roger.

“Whilst we regret any delays when crashes occur, other people using the highway may well be

delayed. We encourage people to drive safely at all times,” he says.

Roger says that Wednesday’s delays in Wakefield were also monitored throughout and at most were up to 15 minutes.“The work was part of our regular summer maintenance programme – resurfacing the highway and there were electronic boards located strategically to inform road users to expect delays which were in place for two weeks prior to this work.” Information was also distributed via a letter drop to nearby residents and was available via the Transport Agency’s website.

“This work, for safety and quality reasons, has to be done in daytime hours. Reseals are continuing throughout Tasman area over the summer and crews will continue to do their best to minimise disruptions but also to warn people in advance where some delays are inevitable.”

New airport ‘magnificent’, says PM Jonty Dine Nelson Airport’s new terminal reflects what Nelson is as a region, says Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.

“It’s a magnificent place, and that’s not something you can say about all New Zealand terminals,” she said at the airport’s official opening on Saturday.

Jacinda says she loves airports not because of the planes but because of the people.

“It’s a symbol of connection and lets us maintain links with one another which is vital to our prosperity and well-being.”

She says the terminal is a place that visitors will remember and Nelsonians can take pride in.

Designed by Studio Pacific Architecture and built by Naylor Love, in partnership with Gibbons Construction and Fulton Hogan, the airport terminal caters for growth in excess of 50 per cent of the current one million passengers which have passed through the facility in the last year.

More than twice the size of the previous terminal, the new building has an indoor luggage carousel and offers more seating, airline lounges, conference rooms, toilets and retail spaces. The number of car parks has also increased from 600 to 900. The new building has a distinctive local feel, with most of the timber and steel used in the construction

Air New Zealand head of tourism and regional affairs Reuben Levermore, says the new terminal is fantastic for the airline and the entire region.

“Nelson has become a key port on the Air New Zealand network. Over the past five years, seats on our services have increased by more than 140,000 on Nelson routes, strongly supporting the case for a redeveloped terminal.”

He says the terminal will provide an excellent experience for customers and sets the airport up well for future growth.

“We’re also looking forward to opening a new Air New Zea-

land regional lounge at Nelson Airport before Christmas.”

Nelson Airport chief executive Rob Evans says the Nelson Airport continues to expand its services and increase its contribution to the region.

“The airport is the gateway to Nelson Tasman and has an important role in the region’s development and prosperity.”

It supports more than 30 businesses that contribute more than $80 million to the region’s GDP and employs 1,500 people. “The new terminal keeps us moving towards not just being the most popular region, but to be the best regional airport in New Zealand.”

Raeward Fresh wins with perfect sausage

Funding available for rural sports clubs and teams Bruno Saia

Bruno Saia Reporter

bruno@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Raeward Fresh Richmond has won a gold medal in this year’s Devro Great New Zealand Sausage Competition. More than 90 butcheries from around New Zealand put their best snarlers forward, culminating in over 500 sausages being poked, sniffed and tasted across 13 categories.

“It’s huge for us. New Zealanders are pretty passionate about a good sausage, so to win a gold medal throughout New Zealand is a massive achievement for us,” says owner / operator Gareth Caldwell.

Results were announced at an awards dinner in Auckland with their ‘Brisket, Aged Cheddar and Jalapeno’ sausage winning gold in the Gourmet Beef category of the competition.

Five days of category judging

Gareth says that the secret of a gold medal sausage starts with quality ingredients. His team of butchers under Manager Pierre Marquet prize themselves on producing many quality bangers.

“Everything that is put into our sausages is of great quality. And

there is a combination of flavours, aged cheddar with the jalapeño and the brisket. It’s not too spicy, but it’s got a bit of a zing to it, you will need to try it.”

“The top sausage is an extraordinarily delicious, full-bodied savoury sausage that had all the judges fighting for more, but all were in total agreement that this was the winning banger”, says foodwriter and judge Annabelle White.

“Even after all the judging we asked for more to be cooked.

Think perfectly flavoured - it’s all about the meat, perfectly textured, with great use of seasoning that has an unforgettable luscious after taste. It’s made me banger obsessed and congrats to the creators”, she says.

Auckland’s Westmere Butchery took out the Supreme Award with their Chicken, Leek and Bacon entry claiming the top spot.

The Murchison Rugby Football Club is committed to keeping rugby alive in the region and supporting anyone from around the area who wants to play the game.

They had two local teams in 2019, but the area also has many children and young people who are keen to play rugby. They play for teams in Brightwater and Richmond and this can be a barrier to some players and their families.

To help with costs the club has been receiving the funds from the Sport NZ Rural Travel Fund for the last three years. “We’re pleased to be able to offer support in the form of petrol vouchers to cover some of the cost of this travel,” says the club’s secretary, Rebecca Moore.

The fund is to support travel costs for rural sports clubs and rural school teams in the region and available to help people aged between 5-19 years old participate in local sports competitions.

The next funding round closes on 31 October. The fund is administered locally by the Tasman District Council and all information regarding the applications are available on their website.

Bruno Saia Spark is has built a new cell tower at Lansdowne Road, next to Nelson Speedway.

“We build new cell sites when demand in the immediate area reaches capacity and there has been significant growth in demand for digital services in the Nelson area,” says Arwen Vant, Corporate Relations Partner of Spark New Zealand.

“As demand reaches capacity on existing cell sites, Spark needs to invest in new “infill” sites (usually located in areas where people and businesses need the service) to boost coverage and capacity. This is occurring in many dozens of locations around New Zealand every year,” she says.

The increasing use of data in the community is being driven by the number of devices like smartphones, iPads, and connected watches, the newly adopted digital curriculum in schools, as well as customers who are adopting wireless broadband to stream video content like Netflix and Lightbox in their homes.

“Given the cost of a new cell tower is usually in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, this is not a decision we take lightly – but we need to do it to ensure our customers keep receiving the quality of service that they rightfully expect,” says Arwen.

The company expects to have it fully working early next year.

Methane reducing cattle feed one step closer Staff Reporter

We have about 12,000 underground boxes on our network, most of them in urban areas. As they are generally in public spaces they sometimes get damaged when: z

vehicles accidentally run into them, causing the cover to loosen or crack

z

people drill holes or insert screws into them

z

some have their covers removed by people not authorised to do so.

These are all dangerous situations, as they can expose you to the live electrical parts inside the box and put you at risk of electrocution.

If a box gets repeatedly damaged by vehicles, we will look at putting protective bollards around it.

Underground boxes must be left alone and only networkapproved contractors are permitted to remove the covers.

Putting screws into an underground box or drilling holes into one is extremely dangerous! If anything ever causes you to need to interact with a box please phone us.

If you accidentally damage an underground box, or if you see one that has been damaged, let us know straight away by phoning our fault line 0800 508 100.

The Government today announced its support for a project that could substantially reduce agricultural greenhouse gas emissions from cattle.

The announcement was made as part of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s and Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor’s visit to Nelson’s Cawthron Aquaculture Park.

The Cawthron Institute will receive $100,000 from the Government’s Sustainable Food & Fibre Futures fund to turn a native red seaweed (Asparagopsis armata) in to a greenhouse gas-busting cattle feed supplement for domestic and global markets.

“If successful, this project could be a game-changer for farmers here and around the world,” Damien O’Connor said.

“In previous trials Asparagopsis has proven to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in livestock by up to 80 per cent.

Other products typically provide reductions of between 10 and 20 per cent.

“Australian research estimates that if just 10 per cent of global ruminant producers adopted Asparagopsis as an additive to feed their livestock, it would have the same impact for our climate as removing 50 million cars from the world’s roads.

“Farmers know better than most about the effects of climate change and many are innovating so that they can drive down on-farm emissions.

They need technology like this to help them get there though.

“Aquaculture is a growth industry for this country and has the potential to play a more significant role in our economy. It’s currently worth $600 million a year and employs over 3000 people.

“The Cawthron project could lay the foundations for a new high-value industry, along with the jobs that go with it.

There is also export potential and on-farm economic bene-

fits, including price premiums for milk and meat.

“We want to be the most productive, sustainable country in the world.

The project will undertake research into the effect of Asparagopsis on greenhouse gas emissions and develop an early proof of concept of the production systems needed to develop the feed supplement at pilot-scale.

New outdoor area for popular restaurant.

Staff Reporter Richmond visitors are soon going to have a new external area to enjoy this summer. The Lemongrass team is very excited about their new outside deck area that is expected to be complete in about three weeks depending on the weather. Although the restaurant is going through renovations the

About Asparagopsis Armata

It is a native red seaweed, which grows abundantly throughout New Zealand waters.

Research in Australia has shown that the seaweed, once harvested and dried can be used as supplementary feed for dairy cows, cattle, sheep and goats. The potential to reduce methane emissions from dairy cows and livestock by up to 80 per cent. The active ingredient, bromoform, is the key to emission reductions.

Budget brides in designer gowns Susan Johnson In a small room two floors above Trafalgar Street is a room full of bridal gowns that Sue Sara hires out to brides on a budget. In fact, Sue can provide just about everything for the bridal party, from the mother of the brides’ dress to dresses for the maid of honour and the flower girl, to shoes and jewellery. For $150 a bride can hire a designermade, near-new gown, $50 of which will be refunded on the gowns return and $50 is donated to the Nelson Hospice.

Sue believes that every bride should feel ’a million dollars on her wedding day’, and that’s what she tries to achieve at Pay It Forward Wedding GownHire.

Sue, originally from Golden Bay, and now in her 60’s, is married with six children, 10 grandchildren and one greatgrandchild and still works as a real estate agent. She says she couldn’t manage without the help of her husband, “he’ll usually have cooked dinner by the time I’ve got home, thank goodness” says Sue.

After the wedding Donna was so grateful, she decided to pay it forward and lend the dress to someone in need and the collection started from that point.

from all around New Zealand, and even from America, in fact 80% of them come from outside the Tasman/Marlborough region. A bride in Auckland had bought two for her big day, one from Barcelona which was the one she chose not to wear, and which was donated to Sue. Three sisters all donated their gowns.

She has Victorian gowns, and even a ‘little Bo Peep’ gown.

When a bridal boutique in Tahunanui closed it donated 16 new gowns.

Her brides come from ‘everywhere’, those that are on a budget from necessity and those from choice. “I have a few business owners who don’t see the sense in spending hundreds or thousands on a dress for one day” says Sue. Sue loves what she does but she would like some help and is looking for a volunteer.

‘Pass the cake’ Susan Johnson When Mitchell Hunt, rugby player for the local team Tasman Mako, visited his grandparents Rona and Graham Douglas at Richmond Waimea Village on Wednesday, he decided to take three mates with him, Finlay Christie, Alex Nankivell and Quentin Strange.

The afternoon visit started with a question and answer session about their achievments with the Mako’s and finished with an afternoon tea which had been provided by the residents.

Mitchell started by thanking the residents for their support.

“It’s nice to visit a part of the com-

munity we don’t often see, it’s usually throwing rugby balls with school kids encouraging them to play the sport.”

The players are experienced public speakers and were relaxed and professional, unfazed even when gently ribbed about leaving the Mako team next year, which they responded to with good humour.

Following the session, the players mingled with the residents and posed for photos.

They tucked into the afternoon tea of homemade scones and cake and answered more questions and discussed tactics about their game against Auckland and the upcoming final against Wellington Lions.

Letter to the editor: Tracy Palmer, Wakefield – 10 October 2019

Fitness equipment in Bill Wilkes Reserves by the Hunter Avenue car park. Photo: Supplied.

Exercise equipment offers community health solutions Jacob Page

BARBERSHOP

Outdoor exercise equipment at parks around the Tasman district are proving popular according to the Tasman District Council. Stationary exercise equipment which is free for members of the public has been installed at Motueka, Tapawera and Richmond. TDC manager of reserves and facilities, Richard Hollier says it was introduced to keep up with community demands.

“It is designed to meet the needs of our changing demographic, promoting and enabling health and well-being opportunities and they are proving popular,” he says.

The equipment has been progressively installed over the last couple of months for just over $14,000. “We have recently surveyed users and local neighbourhoods and the feedback has been resoundingly positive with the sites providing a social nexus as well as a cost effective means of promoting all age health and well-being,” Mr Hollier says.

Dear Editor: At central government’s Freshwater Policy consultation (September 16, 2019) a government representative stated, ‘Water comes before people. That if the environment is healthy people will be healthy.’ The government considers this to be holistic thinking. If central government were truly thinking holistically, the social, economic and environmental implications of this water policy would have been thoroughly analysed. Central government has no understanding of the effects of this policy. The auditor general has said that this policy should be discontinued. The Minister for the Environment said that the estimate to fix Auckland’s sewage problem is Sg0O million. The 5229 million this government set aside, on a nationwide basis, to pay for their freshwater policy is a pittance.

Vegetable growers and farmers will bear the initial costs. However, ratepayers will pay a significant portion of the costs. A local body report (New Zealand Farmer, Sept. 23, 2019) estimates that this freshwater policy will require Southland Regional Council to employ a further 50 staff. The added cost will be millions of dollars.

How many more staff will Tasman District Council be forced to employ? I suspect that many ratepayers, whether residential, business or rural, can ill afford further rate increases.

WEDNESDAY 23 October 2019

Ooops Waimea Weekly would like to congratulate Tasman District elected Mayor Tim King for his win in the mayoral race. You may have noticed some of the glaring errors in our story, al-

though well intentioned, were completely wrong.

Tim being the gentleman he is took it with great humour.

Firstly, none of his three boys is married.

Secondly, he is the new mayor of Tasman not just Richmond.

And sorry to the readers too, we should have been much better than that. It won’t happen again.

MAD BUTCHER

Just a thought...

Kenneth Walker Nelson Tasman Bays Corps, The Salvation Army I have a friend who gets quite nervous about the unknown.

He is prone to overthinking things and for the most part, is anxious about the future.

Over the years I have tried to reassure him things will be OK and that his friends will be there for him, but that doesn’t stop the fear form taking hold of him or to put his mind at rest. Perhaps you find yourself in a similar situation. You can’t get your mind to stop thinking about all the ‘what ifs’, clouds of uncertainty are darkening your horizon and your levels of anxiousness about the future are unsettling you.

I’m fairly sure any words I might offer you will be as equally ineffective as they were for my friend. So, I’ll offer you

someone else’s words. At a time ness, banishment, rejection, of trouble and turmoil and un- war, natural disaster, loss and certainty, Jesus offered these hardship of every kind.

Another step towards preserving Snowden Bush Engine Capacity 27.2cc Engine Capacity 30.1cc Snowden’s Bush Trust is getting closer to its goal to raise $350,000 within 12 months to purchase a piece of land in Brightwater to gift back to the community. They started fundraising in August and have gathered about $140,000 so far.

“We’ve had a sizable commitment from the Tasman District Council (TDC), of $117,000, which has been great, and private donations continue to come in,” says Snowden’s Bush Trust chair, Jeremy Cameron.

“It’s great progress and we’ve got lots of funding applications pending. We also started to look at business and corporates, as well. We are confident

that we are going to get there. We are on track,” he says.

On Sunday, a community picnic took place in the area for the unveiling of a sign so that people can follow up on the achievements of the trust.

“Today is about the questions that

have been asked by the people interested on how things are going. Quite generously, Free Signs helped us put this sign together so that we can track the progress. People driving past can see the thermometer, as well as all our details and how to get in contact

with us. It’s another small step,” says Jeremy.

Donations to support the trust can be made through the Snowden’s Bush Trust Facebook page, through Givealittle or the trust’s website www. snowdensbushtrust.nz.

Mako boast consistent play-off record Peter Jones

In recent seasons Tasman rugby fans have become accustomed to featuring in the NPC play-offs, but that wasn’t always the case.

Since 2012 the Mako have been a part of either the championship of premiership semi-finals, their major success coming in 2013 when they took out the championship title on an unforgettable Nelson night.

However, following their introduction in 2006 as the nation’s newest rugby province, they were unable to feature at the business end of the season. For six years they battled to make their mark, finishing twelfth, eleventh, seventh, ninth and twelfth before reaching their lowest point, coming fourteenth and last in the 2011 provincial standings.

That season became a turning point. Smart recruitment and a major attitude change immediately propelling the 2012 side into the fledgling union’s first playoff - a championship semi-final against Otago in Dunedin.

The Mako lost 41-34 but they had tasted blood and made no mistake the following year. After

qualifying second through the preliminary rounds they accounted for Southland comfortably in Blenheim, the only time Marlborough has hosted Tasman in an NPC play-off. Then it was back to Nelson for the final, against a gritty Hawke’s Bay outfit, with the Mako prevailing 26-25 as Ihaia West’s last minute conversion sailed wide of the posts.

Despite promotion to the premiership, Tasman’s ascent to the top reaches of the national provincial scene gathered momentum. In 2014 they qualified second for the semis after round robin play, then accounted for Canterbury 26-6 in Nelson, before losing a memorable final 3632 to Taranaki at the Bull Ring in New Plymouth.

The following year Tasman qualified third for the semis, having to travel to Auckland where they were well beaten, 44-24.

In 2016, they were back in the premiership final, having qualified third again. They travelled to New Plymouth and accounted for Taranaki 41-29 in the semi, but in the decider they stumbled against Canterbury in Christchurch, losing 43-27, the first of three nota-

Fourth qualification in 2017 saw Tasman on the road at play-off time again. They repeated their win against Taranaki, this time getting home 30-29, but were again unable to shake Canter-

bury, this time going down 35-13.

Last year had a familiar ring.

After qualifying second for the semis that was as far as Tasman got, losing to their recent nemesis 21-16 at Trafalgar Park, a disappointing farewell for departing coach Leon MacDonald.

That reversal, coming on the back of a six-game winning streak, merely underlined the unpredictable nature of play-off rugby.

Despite the Mako’s superb run this season, history suggests they will be taking absolutely nothing for granted on Saturday.

Tasman booked their ticket to the 2019 Mitre 10 Cup premiership final with a gritty display at Lansdowne Park on Saturday.

Their 18-9 victory over a feisty Auckland side who brought their ‘A’ game to Blenheim means the Mako earn the right to host the premiership decider at Nelson’s Trafalgar Park this weekend.

Standing between them and their first premiership title will be the Wellington Lions, who downed Canterbury 30-19 in the capital on Saturday evening.

Many pundits felt the Mako would find themselves up against their Crusaders region rivals in the final, but the Lions had other ideas, going out to an early lead then holding on against the inevitable Canterbury resurgence.

Wellington are a very dangerous opponent. The Mako beat them 45-8 in the opening round of the competition but, as was the case with Auckland who were also well beaten in round robin play, that result means nothing come play-off time.

The Lions are unpredictable favouring unstructured, almost chaotic situations and have quality players capable of ripping defences apart.

Ball-playing forwards such as Asafo Aumua, Alex Fidow, Vaea Fifita, skipper du’ Plessis Kirifi and Teariki Ben-Nicholas possess both power and pace while Jackson Garden-Bachop, Peter Umaga-Jensen, Billy Proctor, Ben Lam, Wes Goosen and Vince Aso

However, Wellington’s Achilles Heel is often their discipline and set piece consistency, areas I am sure the Mako coaches will be focussed on in the lead-up to the final.

Tasman may have bought their ticket to the “big dance”, but they paid a hefty price for it.

A lack of serious injuries has been a feature of the Mako campaign this year, but the rugby gods were definitely not smiling on Saturday.

The early loss of key loose forwards Ethan Blackadder and his replacement Jordan Taufua put the Mako on the back foot.

If both are ruled out for the

final that will impact the home side’s ability to bring big-match experience off the bench. They may also be without the elusive Will Jordan who limped from the field later in the match with what appeared to be a serious knee injury.

However, it was the team’s ability to handle adversity that saw Tasman through against Auckland and the Mako selectors have showed time and again that they have faith in their entire squad.

Co-head coach Andrew Goodman once again praised the efforts of his bench players against Auckland, despite the two early injuries affecting his replacement plans.

“One of our strengths has been being able to bring those guys on later in the game when teams are starting to tire, but I thought our ‘Sparkies’ still did an awesome job today,” said Goodman.

“That group of four or five that came on with about 20 [minutes] to go really changed the game.”

Pivotal to that situation was young forward Te Ahiwaru Cirikidaveta who replaced Taufua after 20 minutes. Usually called on as a lock, he turned in an inspirational effort on the side of the scrum, his defence being a highlight.

The fact that replacements Fetuli Paea and Hugh Roach made the breaks that led to the Mako’s two tries further underlines the

impact this team is getting from the bench.

But ultimately their success on Saturday was based on relentless defence. Given the weight of position and possession Auckland enjoyed they should have been 10 points or more clear at half-time. Instead they trailed at the break, unable to breach the red and blue wall. As it has done throughout the season, Tasman’s structured and scrambling defence continually denied their opponent, creating frustration and uncertainty.

It will have to be on point again this weekend but, as they showed on Saturday, this Mako side certainly knows how to dig deep.

Now, in the union’s 14th year of existence, the Mako have a chance to make history.

It has been a turbulent, rollercoaster ride since the province’s humble beginnings in 2006, but the opportunity is there to sit proudly atop New Zealand provincial rugby, a remarkable situation to contemplate in such a short time frame.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

When Tasman previously tasted NPC success, in the 2013 championship final, it was the boisterous home town crowd who provided the extra impetus which got the Mako over the line.

The crowd involvement in Saturday’s semi, both during the contest and on the field after the game, was superb. The players and management relish it, knowing it puts wind under their wings.

It’s time to pack T-Park again Mako fans.

A Goodman to have on board Peter Jones

One name has become synonymous with the Tasman Mako on their journey towards the top of New Zealand rugby.

From the nation’s newest provincial rugby union’s inception in 2006, until the present day, members of the Goodman family have been at the forefront of proceedings.

The late John Goodman, formerly a life member of the Nelson club and the Nelson Bays union, was Tasman’s first president, holding the role from 2006-2007. His passion for the game across the top of the south helped bring the fledgling union into existence and his drive helped sustain it, especially during the early, troubled years.

His two sons have also been heavily involved during the union’s short, but colourful, history.

Chris currently runs the Crusaders Academy, based in Nelson, which plays a huge role identifying and retaining talent from within the region.

Andrew, a goal-kicking mid-

Coach Andrew Goodman.

Photo: Shuttersport. field back who played 55 games for Tasman, beginning in 2006, is now co-head coach of the Mako.

After three seasons as assistant coach, this year he has guided the team into the NPC semis during his first stint in the top role. He recalls his initial involvement with a union struggling to find its feet in 2006.

“From day one [Tasman rugby] has been a big part of our family’s life … the union have been through some lows and some awesome highs as well.

“Dad was always a massive supporter. He had been working in

schools rugby for a long time and knew how much it would mean for those kids coming through to have something to strive for … to stay in the top division of rugby.”

The Goodmans were doubly fortunate to have knowledge of both sub-unions, John having worked at the Rai Valley Area School before moving to Nelson. “[As a family we have always had a foot on both sides of the hill,” said Andrew, “being supportive of the whole region.”

He and Chris have a constant reminder of their father’s influence when they turn up to work at the union’s offices.

“It’s cool to walk into work and see his photo in the Buccaneers trophy cabinet downstairs … we still talk about him a lot, I’m sure he would be really happy with the way things are going at the moment.

“I think about the old man every weekend,” said Andrew, “especially when I go out to check the wind before the games. He was always down at the park early, letting me know which way I should be playing.”

Meet the Mako’s biggest fan Jonty Dine

Whenever he’s strolling the streets of Nelson, or any other New Zealand city, Kenn Butler is sure to give passersby a ‘fins up.’

Though, more often than not he’s met with looks of ‘who is this crazy old man?’, it doesn’t stop him showcasing the immense pride he has for his beloved Mako. Since the Tasman Mako’s inception in 2006, Kenn has religiously followed the team around country. Rugby in the region has come a long way since Kenn moved here 21 years ago when the side was just called Nelson Bays. Shortly after Nelson’s Kenn Butler has been following the side since its inception in arriving, Kenn went to watch the then division two team.

2006. Photo: Jonty Dine.

“We were beaten by a Canterbury country team 48-3, I thought ‘this is a nightmare.”

After amalgamation with Marlborough and the

birth of the Mako, Kenn has been witness to all the heartbreak and heroics. From championship titles to last place finishes, Kenn’s support has never wavered. He recalls a number of highlights during the 13-year journey.

“Auckland three years ago, David Havili had a penalty into the wind in the driving rain and all the Auckland supporters were yelling, ‘w*****, w*****! It will never get there’.”

Havili nailed the penalty to the shock of the Auckland fans.

“So, I just took a bow on his behalf, it was a fantastic win that day.”

He says getting beaten by Canterbury again last year was a hard pill to swallow.

“We just didn’t turn up.”

Kenn has watched his side play at almost every major rugby ground in New Zealand.

“Mrs Butler gets a bit annoyed because we have to be there an

hour before kickoff to soak up the atmosphere.”

His loyalty has been rewarded in recent times as the Mako have built themselves into a provincial powerhouse.

However, a premiership title still eludes them. Kenn, of course, had no hesitation heading over the hill for the Mako’s semi-final win against Auckland.

“It was a splendid result.”

He now prepares for what is the biggest game in the franchise’s history and is confident they can get the job done.

“Clearly there’s a morale in the team, they just gel.”

He says the Fainganu’uku brothers, prop Tim Perry and the ageless Wyatt Crockett have all impressed this season.

But one player stands out as his firm favourite, Ethan Blackadder.

“I think we should vote him for mayor when he retires.”

Tasman United Academy 13/14th grade girls football team hosted Wellington United.

Tasman has had a very successful season including wins over Capital’s Federation Talent Centre and winning the Alan Fraser Tournament in Christchurch for the second year running. The girls got two victories against Wellington United, one of the strongest female team in the Federation.

Mako steams into historic final Jonty Dine and Peter Jones Mako fans were reminded of what NPC play-off rugby is all about at Lansdowne Park on Saturday.

And it wasn’t pretty.

The Mitre 10 Cup premiership semi-final, won 18-9 by Tasman, turned into a war of attrition, ultimately decided by a couple of moments of brilliance by the home side. Auckland came to Blenheim stung by a 40-0 reversal in round-robin play, with a plan to negate Tasman’s traditional strengths and it nearly worked.

For three quarters of the match they held onto possession, slowed down any ball Tasman managed to get their hands on and pressurised the home side into errors of judgement and discipline.

However, the one thing the defending champs couldn’t do was forge a decent lead, thus putting the home side under scoreboard pressure. Tasman survived the intense semi-final encounter which saw the side lose three key players but ensured its unprecedented season will continue.

The Mako were rattled in the

first forty, finding themselves on the wrong side of the referee and scoreboard. Tasman was dealt two cruel blows inside the opening quarter with Ethan Blackadder dislocating his shoulder and taken from the field. His replacement Jordan Taufua didn’t last either after being knocked out while attempting to clear a ruck.

Their woes were compounded as Auckland put first points on the board through the boot of Harry Plummer. Mitch Hunt uncharacteristically missed a regulation penalty to respond but the flyhalf made amends with his side’s first clean break leading to squaring the scores after 37 minutes.

The hosts finally took the lead right on half-time with Hunt’s second penalty, but the half belonged to the defending champions. Auckland again made a superior start in the second as Plummer evened the honours again at 6-all. The casualty ward kept growing as did the frustrations for Tasman, losing Will Jordan to a knee injury.

Auckland were then denied a spectacular try thanks to a sin-

An Alex Nankivell brain fade handed Auckland a chance to reclaim the lead with the in-form mid-fielder pinged for a blatant late shot, but Plummer pushed his attempt wide. Hunt missed his second penalty, but a turning point was around the corner.

Replacement Fetuli Paea exploded through the Auckland defence and was brought down metres

short of the chalk. But a rampaging Quentin Strange was on hand to score the game’s first try as Lansdowne Park erupted in elation. Paea went from hero to villain in a matter of minutes as the winger spilled the kick-off reception, allowing Auckland to reduce the deficit to four with seven remaining. The nerves were getting to both teams, Auckland making a simple error in front of its own posts to set the Mako right

back on attack. Another miss by Hunt kept Auckland alive but the game was put to bed thanks to an outstanding run by replacement hooker Hugh Roach. Skipper David Havili remained composed and linked up with Nankivell.

The unbeaten Mako will now meet Wellington in the final at Trafalgar Park next Saturday.

The ability to handle adversity is crucial to any teams with title aspirations and the Mako had to dig deeper than they have had to at any stage this season to get the job done today. Co-head coach Andrew Goodman admitted as much. “When you lose two key leaders like that in quick succession it is always going to have an impact on the game.” He expected Auckland to come at them with plans to slow their ball down and exert pressure at the breakdown. “That’s where they have had success against us in the past.

We probably didn’t adapt quickly enough at the start but once we got a bit more decisive with our carries and the cleaners did their job we managed to get some quick ball and found some holes.”

120 ladies in Richmond for local golf tournament Bruno Saia A total of 120 women from all over New Zealand visited the Greenacres Golf Club from Wednesday to Friday, for the Richmond Unlimited Women’s Three-Day Tournament.

“The girls have done a fabulous job organising it all,” says local player Ngaere Thornalley. “I believe they did it so well. Look at the course; it’s beautiful.”

Tournament Committee Secretary, Sally Ussher says that the championship was thought of by a group of women members of the club. They spotted a gap in the sports calendar and decided to initiate the inaugural event last year. “We go to tournaments around the country and felt we had gained the experience required to do this for our Club,” says Sally. “The intention is to run the Tournament as an annual event for the Club.”

The Overall Gross Winner of the 2019 Tournament was Lynda Ngaere Thornalley, from RichTate from Wainui Golf Club. mond. Photo: Bruno Saia.

Roads and rugby have my blood pressure up this week for opposite reasons. I am aghast at the Government’s radical proposals to slash speed limits on State Highway 6 between Nelson and Blenheim.

First, the good news. It was fantastic to be at the game in Blenheim to witness the Mako win. It is incredible that we are slaying the giants of New Zealand rugby like Auckland, Canterbury, and Waikato. Eleven wins on the trot has us hosting our first ever NPC final.

Huge tribute to Tasman Rugby CEO Tony Lewis, Coaches Andrew Goodman, Clarke Dermody and Shane Christie, Captain David

Havili and the full squad. We need to pack Trafalgar Park this Saturday night to back the Mighty Mako against the Wellington Lions. Fins Up! It will be a great night of rugby with the RWC semis – go the ABs! My pleasure at the Mako win in Blenheim was soured driving home as I carefully assessed the proposed speed limit changes on the route. The reduction in the speed limit from 100kmp to 80 kmph on open straight stretches like from Renwick to Havelock, Havelock to Pelorous Bridge and through the Collins Valley are ridiculous.

This is all part of the Government’s anti-car crusade led by Green

Party Minister Julie Anne Genter. They have increased fuel taxes three times, proposed new taxes on cars, slashed the annual investment on our state highways by 70% and are now radically reducing speed limits. I was appalled at the mind-set of Ms Genter referring to motorists as “car fascists”.

The most sensible initiative we could make to improve the safety of the Nelson-Blenheim highway is additional passing lanes. National recently funded the upgrades on Gentle Annie and Rai Saddle. I am very disappointed that the Government has just cancelled $5 million worth of further upgrades on SH6 including the resurfacing of

544 Waimea Road, Nelson

Atawhai Drive to make it quieter and safer.

I am not opposed to all of the speed limit changes proposed.

I am a big fan of the electronic variable school zone signs being proposed for Hira and Canvastown schools. They are a smart approach that dramatically reduce speed for the 30 minutes at the time when schools starts and ends.

It maximises safety for children while enabling freer traffic flows during the bulk of the time.

The biggest cause of increases in our road toll has been drug impaired driving that now exceeds drunk driving. Minister Genter has a blind spot on drugged driv-

ing and has repeatedly rejected efforts by police, transport officials and myself to introduce random roadside drug testing. We also need to do better in tackling driver distractions like cellphone use ahead of across the board speed limit reductions.

These big cuts in speed limits between Nelson and Blenheim are over the top. National and I will vigorously oppose them. I strongly commend Stephanie Drewer on the petition she initiated opposing the changes. Drop into my caravan at Nelson’s Saturday Market to see the maps of the changes, to provide feedback and if you wish, to sign the petition.

Jacob Page The 2019 edition of The Nelson Half is scheduled for 3 November. This “festival of running” is expected to attract a record 800 entrants covering a range of distances (half-marathon, 10km, 5km, 2.5km). Entries so far are well on track for this goal with competitors from 4 years to 81 years taking to a start line and facing their chosen challenge with whanau and friends. As in past years, participants can nominate a local school to receive a portion of the entry fees and for the first two years over $10 000 has been distributed across the region. Henley, Wakefield, Clifton Terrace and Richmond Schools are currently neck and neck for most nominations for 2019. Further information about the event can be accessed through www.thenelsonhalf.co.nz.

Speedway postponed until 2 November The Nelson Speedway Association has decided to postpone this weekend’s Coca-Cola Fireworks Extravaganza at Milestone Homes Top of the South Speedway by seven days.

Nelson Speedway Association president Wayne Martin made the decision with the Tasman Mako hosting the Mitre 10 Cup final at Trafalgar Park against Wellington on Saturday night

which would have directly clashed with the event.

The event will now be held on Saturday November 2 with the rest of the season’s calendar unaffected by the move.

Brightwater’s Mt Heslington Rd will host “an old fashioned, action-packed” hill climb on Sunday. Motocross Events Nelson’s Dan Shallcrass says after trialling the idea last year, the event was back and keen to build on the initial success.

“It’s an old school hill climb,” he says. “We have the lower part of the hill where we will have some head-to-head racing in a knockout scenario.

Max Mannering is happy to fly halfway round the world to find his next cricket challenge.

The 22-year-Old Englishman is Wanderers’ overseas player for their return to premier cricket.

The Exeter University first XI captain will look to add an offspin option and middle-order ball. “I’ve come from between Oxford and London. My coach really talked up this opportu-

nity to come out here and play and I want to be a professional cricketer. Mannering said it was like gambling on his own abilities and he wanted to test himself in unfamiliar conditions. “Very rarely do you get a chance to travel and do something you love for six months of the year. The chance to test myself in these conditions which I know at times won’t always suit me and that’s all part of it. You have to be clever, lean

on the batsman’s ego and try to get wickets that way,” he says.

Mannering will also work with Nelson Cricket during the week teaching the game in schools. He said with Wanderers having a young team, he’s keen to take on a leadership role with both his words and actions. He says the aim was to push to finish in the middle of the table in their first season back.” Mannering is here until mid-March.

The water has warmed up a little bit and the snapper seem to have arrived in the Bay. The catches are still inconsistent but we had quite a few reports of snapper being caught in various locations. The big moochers seem to move into the shallows first, now is the time to go after this trophy fish on your bucket list!

Traditional hot spots at this time of the year are the middle of the Bay between 30 and 40 metres and shallower waters off Rabbit Island and Delaware Bay. Timing is essential, early mornings with a lot of current flowing seem to yield the best results.

Using burley is a double-edged sword, it certainly attracts snapper but also a lot of undesirables like red cod and spiny dogfish.

Especially the latter can turn up in hundreds and spoil your fun thoroughly. If that happens you can try fishing through the school but sometimes a change of location or drift fishing with

lures or heavy sinkers are the only options left.

If the sharks are not too bad, be patient and try different baits on flasher rigs and stray lines.

Bigger baits usually catch bigger fish and using crabs as bait attracts fewer sharks.

Light but high-quality gear increases your chances significantly, snapper can be very cautious. Make sure you check your leader after every fish, especially if you hooked a shark, their sandpaper like skin can damage the line easily. If in doubt, replace it, you don’t want to lose that fish of a lifetime because of a pesky shark!

The Dawnbreakers Fishing Club will hold their annual “Goldfish vs Sharks” competition at the end of the month where male and female members compete with each other. The boys are eager to make last year’s crushing defeat forgotten but according to the girls the chances are slim…

Controlling Argentine and Darwin ants Thousands of households and businesses in our region now have an infestation of Argentine or Darwin ants. These ants build up massive colonies and can have a significant negative impact on indoor and outdoor living.

Both ant species are inadvertently spread by any medium that contains an ant colony.

For example, ants can be spread to other areas via infested pot plants, potting mixes, firewood, goods held in storage, landscaping supplies, bark chips, topsoil and building and other materials sourced from ant infested areas.

Before arranging for any supply from a potentially infested area, ask that the supplier can guarantee their goods are free of any ant contamination. Any vehicle, boat, caravan or motorhome that has been stationary in an infested area is at risk of having a colony on board and should be checked and treated before leaving your neighbourhood. Spring is the most effective time to treat infestations to slow the rate of expansion of ant colonies – so now is a great time to treat your property for ants.

Information on treatment options can be found at tasman.govt.nz/link/ants.

Information wanted: Old Baigent’s Sawmill We’re continually reviewing and updating information for properties on our database of sites which are on the Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL).

The HAIL can be found on the Ministry for the Environment’s website (mfe.govt.nz/land ) and includes activities such as petrol stations, orchards, sheep dips, engineering workshops and mining.

Whether it’s your actual first taste of Queen Street's restaurants or you’re already familiar with their menus, try delicious food from different corners of the world, enjoy local live music, and watch dancing, including Latin American and Highland. You’ll also have a chance to learn some African and Latin American dance moves, and participate in a bliss ball-making workshop and chalk drawing activities. The event will run from 11.00 am to 2.00 pm.

We encourage you to bring your own reusable plates, cups, and bags, and to support our stall holders with their waste minimisation initiatives. Don’t worry if you don’t have suitable tableware; we’ve invited the Wash Against Waste trailer, where you will be able to buy or borrow some cups and plates.
