Taking on Madonna Fresh faces: Marrickville welcomes new police
Dulwich Hill artist just wants to protect his artwork

he Dulwich Hill artist who plans to sue Madonna for using a symbol he created in her new perfume advertisements says he is not interested in making money from it – he just wants to protect his work. RJ Williams, a well-known street artist, objects to the global pop star using his symbol to sell perfume, saying the symbol is “for everyone”. “I’m the original owner, but I’ve shared the symbol in the community,” he explained. “Here in Dulwich Hill, the local school kids have it all over their school bags and books.” Mr Williams said the design, which he fi rst created eight years ago, stands for ‘Th redbo Massive’ after a group of friends. It has featured in street art and magazines right around the world. “It would be a bit of a stretch to say [Madonna] hadn’t seen it before she used it,” he said. Mr Williams only found out the symbol was being used to market Madonna’s product two weeks ago when his London-based ex-girlfriend saw it on billboards. “She texted me and said, have a look at this, and I couldn’t believe it. I then did some research into my

rights as creator,” he said. Mr Williams, who has trademarked the design, has not heard from Madonna’s manager, Guy Oseary, after writing to him last
week. Since the story broke on Sunday, Mr Williams has been fi elding calls from media in Australia, the United States and India and still
can’t believe he’s at the centre of an international story. What’s your view? Email louise. b ou rke@i n nerc it y w e ekender. com.au.

No matter where you turned this week, it seemed that everyone was talking about money. And most of that centred around two big events on Tuesday night: the Federal Budget, and the $70 million Ozlotto mega-jackpot. Try as hard as Wayne Swan did to gain attention, it must be said that more people were watching the numbers drop in the lotto draw than tuned in for the annual Budget speech. And why wouldn’t you be interested – there’s no chance the government was going to be slinging anyone a fraction of the $70 million on offer, in fact you were far more likely to lose money and benefits in this Budget. I don’t know whether you bought a ticket for the mega draw, but I certainly did… as you can clearly gather by the fact I am still writing this column, I had no success. Not even a Division Two or Division Th ree payout. Nothing. Zip. Zero. Zilch.

an association with Regardless of my failure, I do quite enjoy those one or two times a year when there are big lottery jackpots. It’s a little bit like an adult version of Christmas – because otherwise rational people dare to dream, and compile wish lists of exactly what they want in life. What did you decide to splurge on if the numbers went your way? Top of the list for me were houses in Sydney, Melbourne, Byron Bay, New York, Los Angeles and London. Then there was also the Aston Martin, the Maserati, the yacht and a six month holiday. Writing it all actually makes me feel a bit guilty and selfi sh – and I think the same could be said for most people who were plotting what to do with their winnings. And I reckon most attitudes to the Federal Budget would’ve been the same – focused purely on what rewards we reap personally. I actually heard one radio commentator open his show on
Wednesday morning with the exact line “the only question that matters is what does this Budget do for you”. It’s a little sad that we can’t consider whether we will be better off as a nation because of how we spend our money, and that our only interest is how it best serves us. But in the end it is quite understandable – the government is spending your money that you’ve gracefully handed over to them in taxes, so of course you want to see a return on your investment. It’s like giving your money to a fi nancial adviser – you trust them with your hard earned cash and expect them to spend it wisely, otherwise you give them the sack. With the government it’s no different – if they invest your money poorly, they lose their jobs. And for our current Labor Government, I’d suggest it’s time for them to buy a lotto ticket because they’re more chance of winning Division One than avoiding the sack at the next election.

Lock the gate: Council against CSG Councillors vote to prohibit coal seam gas mining at St Peters, much to the relief of local residents and campaigners BY LOUISE BOURKE
M
arrickville Councillors have voted unanimously to support a new condition in the development application of a waste recycling business to prohibit coal seam gas (CSG) mining on the site, much to the relief of local residents. The development site, the Dial-A-Dump in St Peters, is also the site of a proposed CSG well, however this was not mentioned in the development application to renew the business licence. “We were appalled when the development application had been lodged with no reference to the agreement with Dart Energy about the CSG well,” said Stop CSG Sydney President, Jacinta Green. “Not only has Dart Energy been defi nite in their plans to drill at St Peters, they were also 95 per cent certain that the well would end up as a production well.” Councillors voted to support the development application at a Council meeting on Tuesday night, but made the approval conditional on prohibiting coal seam gas mining going ahead at the site. “Dial-A-Dump should rip up its landholder agreement with Dart Energy… it’s now crystal clear that the community and Council do not want gas exploration or extraction at St Peters,” Cr Max Phillips said. Council will also write to the NSW Government to request they not renew the CSG exploratory licence at the St Peters site.

087ICD1751
arrickville Council will consider rezoning industrial areas around Victoria Road to allow mixed uses, including residential housing, retail and commercial, in response to a development application to revitalise the precinct. Councillors voted last Tuesday night to look at revised planning controls
and to request that the developer of the proposed project, Brookfi eld Multiplex, submit a planning proposal for the precinct including an analysis of possible uses and an environmental sustainability strategy. Department of Planning representatives met with Council staff and Brookfi eld Multiplex one week prior to the Council meeting, on April 24, to initiate discussion on the proposal.
Mayor, Morris Hanna, said it was vital to consider such development options which create aff ordable housing, so that Marrickville “does not become the new Paddington”. A spokesperson for Brookfi eld Multiplex, David Tierney, appealed to Councillors to work with the developers on the design plans after raising the ire of some by suggesting they were only “part-time Councillors”.

New police on beat Marrickville Local Area Command welcomes five new constables
M
arrickville has fi ve new police officers on the beat who have joined the local area command after graduating from the NSW Police Academy in Goulburn last Friday. Coming from a variety of backgrounds and careers, the fi ve new probationary constables include Constable Travis Butler, Constable Nesar Kakar, Constable James McKendry, Constable Natasha Smith and Constable Veronica Stevens.
The new o fficers were put straight to work on Monday, undergoing training and induction formalities, according to Constable Alyssa Heath. “After a three day induction at the station, the constables joined their respective teams… partnering up with fi eld training officers who will guide them through the fi rst few months of their policing careers,” she said. The constables still have 12
months on-the-job training and study by distance education through Charles Sturt University before they graduate with an Associate Degree in Policing Practice and can be confi rmed at the rank of constable. Marrickville Commander, Greg Peters, said he welcomed the new additions to the Command. They join two new recruits at Newtown and eight at Redfern working on the front line from next week.
A youth has been charged with robbing a 12-year-old girl in Petersham on Monday, May 7. At about 3.55pm, the girl was waiting at a bus stop near the intersection of Livingstone Road, Petersham, when three males walked past her. One of the group, a 17-yearold male, turned around and approached the girl, allegedly grabbing her around the throat and snatching her mobile phone from her hand before running from the scene. The 17-year-old was arrested at Marrickville Police Station on Tuesday, May 8. He was charged with robbery and appeared at Bidura Children’s Court on Wednesday. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Alarm raised: Rose Street home ransacked
Marrickville Police are investigating a break and enter that occurred at a house on Rose Street in Marrickville on Monday, May 7. At 7.20am, the victim was alerted by Chubb Security that his house alarm had been activated. The victim returned home and found the rear garage had been entered and the door had been
forced off its hinges, with his vehicle also opened. Inside the house, the back screen door and the back door had been forced open. The house was ransacked and some property taken. The alarm was activated causing the unknown offender to leave quickly. Crime Scene Officers from the Forensic Services Group attended and further investigations are currently still being conducted. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Project Eyewatch: Improved watch program
Marrickville Police are asking for local residents to be involved in Project Eyewatch, the new Neighbourhood Watch program for the 21st century. Project Eyewatch uses Facebook to share information between the police and the community in an interactive and instantaneous way. “I would urge everyone to support this initiative and help keep Marrickville a safe place,” said Marrickville Local Area Command Superintendent, Greg Peters. Instead of attending community meetings, residents are asked to follow the Marrickville Local Area Command Facebook page and share information there.

he former Nomads bikie boss who set a police vehicle alight outside his Newtown tattoo parlour two weeks ago had his bail overturned on Tuesday and is now behind bars. Scott Orrock, 47, is alleged to have set a paddy wagon alight outside the Skin Deep Tattoo Studio in the early hours of April 21. He was granted bail last week by Central Local Court on a $10,000 surety, to the dismay of police and the NSW Premier, Barry O’Farrell, who urged the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to appeal the decision. On Tuesday, Justice Peter Garling ruled that Mr Orrock represented “an ongoing risk to the community” and that it was likely he would not show for his court hearing. “I am satisfied that the protection and welfare of the community... require that the bail review should be upheld and Mr Orrock’s bail revoked,” Justice Garling said in a written judgement. NSW Police Commissioner, Andrew Scipione, said he was pleased

with the Court’s ruling on Tuesday. “I think it’s a good outcome… I thought that the matter needed to be
appealed… the DPP did take the matter to an appeal and today the court upheld that view,” Commissioner Scipione said.

All types of e-Waste will be accepted including computers, home office ware, entertainment equipment and toys. The drop o ffday will be held at the Council Works Depot, 15-17 Unwins Bridge Road, St Peters on May 12 from 9am -3.30pm.

Jam packed on trains
Local commuters can already see it, but Railcorp figures reveal overcrowding BY LOUISE BOURKE

t’s something inner west commuters have known for a long time, but new fi gures released by Railcorp show the extent of overcrowding on the Bankstown and Inner West Lines – 150 per cent and 120 per cent of capacity respectively in the morning peak hour. Marrickville MP, Carmel Tebbutt, said this means morning train commuters are less likely to get a
seat, and more likely to experience delays. “The latest fi gures from Railcorp demonstrate what commuters already know – the Bankstown and Inner West Lines are packed to capacity,” Ms Tebbutt said. “We are fast reaching the point where there is no more aisle space in the mornings. Passengers are huddling up against each other and being forced to grab onto any bit of railing they can.” Ms Tebbutt criticised the State
Government for increasing train fares by 5.4 per cent without having addressed overcrowding. But Transport Minister, Gladys Berejiklian, said the government was working to rewrite the timetable to deliver more services to the worst affected lines and has added 63 new services since coming to office. “For the local Labor member to complain about a lack of rail capacity after their own government cut 416 daily train services is grossly hypocritical,” Ms Berejiklian said.
➤ Marrickville Council’s next free Healthy Ageing Talk on Wednesday, May 16 will cover accommodation options for retirement, and tinnitus, the common hearing condition. An audiologist from the Hearing and Balance Centre will talk about tinnitus, a hearing disorder usually characterised by a ringing noise, but in some patients, a high-pitched whining, electric buzzing, or hissing. The most common cause of tinnitus is age-related hearing loss. A Centrelink Financial Information Service Officer will provide information about the options for accommodation in retirement including staying in the family home, moving to something smaller and retirement villages and hostels. The talk will be held on May 16 from 10.30am-12pm at the Marrickville Library.

Window farms, the new food way
After a way to grow sustainable farm but don t have the space outdoors? Newtown s Green Living Centre has the answer BY LOUISE BOURKE
N
ewtown’s Green Living Centre is pioneering a way to grow local, sustainable food using inner city ‘window farms.’ The contraptions take advantage of the natural light and vertical space near windows to grow fresh food such as herbs, tomatoes, lettuce and peas. “A lot of our residents are renters and don’t have the space outside to grow their own food,” said Stanmore local, Jocelyn Cutler, who has been cultivating the farm at the Green Living Centre for the past four months. “Window farms attempt to create a mobile and fun way to grow sustainable produce, and because you are growing your own food, you are reducing your food footprint.” Another added benefit, according to Ms Cutler, is the taste. “The food is delicious – if you’ve ever eaten a home grown tomato, you’d know,” she said. Marrickville Council is supporting Ms Cutler’s initiative for sustainable local food production, with Marrickville Mayor, Morris Hanna, saying the Council was committed to enabling the community to grow and have access to fresh and locally-produced food”. A free session on how to establish a window farm will be held on May 24 at the Green Living Centre, 218 King Street, from 6pm. Are you going? Let us know by emailing louise.bourke@innercityweekender.com. au.

Approach your Hip Replacement Head On
I
BY KAREN DALEY
n life, approaching a problem head on can make all the diff erence. Th e same can be said of hip replacements. Your choice of procedure can play a big part in your recovery. Dr Daniel Rahme, Orthopaedic Surgeon, has found that the anterior minimally invasive hip replacement technique is showing good results compared to traditional techniques. Th is is where the replacement is approached from the front, rather than the side or back. A smaller incision is made compared to the other approaches. “We have seen patients return to their normal activities sooner”, remarks Dr Daniel Rahme, who has performed many of these procedures. One of the fi rst in Australia to perform the technique, he now travels all over Australia teaching other surgeons, as well as operating on his own patients at Bankstown Public Hospital and Sydney Private Hospital, Ashfield. He attributes the faster recovery to the fact that no muscles are cut, resulting in less blood loss, less post-operative pain, faster mobility and shorter hospital stays. You may drive when able to get in and out of the car comfortably, have excellent control of your legs and will cease taking pain medications sooner (in most cases this is 8 to 10 days).
So, if you are facing a hip replacement, maybe a forward approach is just what the doctor ordered. To make an appointment to see Dr Rahme please phone 9747 1350.

10 BUSINESS Business Finance Open your eyes
Your home could be on the hook Residentially-secured business loans can be one way to get your get your business up and running. Th ese are appealing because they’re both easier to obtain, and often have lower interest rates compared to non-residentiallysecured products. But the trade-off is pretty simple – your personal property will be the collateral for the loan. For small business owners relying on a home’s value to secure their fi nances, falling property prices mean your business could be on the hook. It’s less of an issue for Sydney residents, with average house prices falling just 3.82 per cent since last year. But it does highlight a bigger issue for SMEs; taking out a residentially-secured loan does carry some risk, given that property values can fall. Borrowing less than the absolute maximum the lender is prepared to offer you can provide you with a buff er against falling values. Using your home as security isn’t a no-no, but make sure you have your eyes wide open. A popular alternative, for more established businesses is to consider a commercially-secured business loan. Th ese are available in several forms including loans secured against business assets, loans secured against business property.

The Full Moon is in Scorpio and this is going to make you stressed out, irritable and terribly grumpy. Your home may resemble something of a battle field at the moment as you will find it rather difficult to keep your opinions to yourself. Your relationships are going through a cycle of change and issues to do with control, power, secrets and desire will come into the picture. It is therefore important that you look at these issues and discuss them.

Work pressure may be piling and unfortunately you may be feeling off colour. In order to get back to full health once more, it is important to focus on improving your diet and getting adequate rest. You suspect that someone close is not telling you the complete truth. It is important to get things out into the open, don’t let pride stand in your way of getting a resolution, do what you know you need to do. Talk it out with them and move on.

Romance is in the air and if you’re foot loose and fancy free, you will attract some welcome attention. However, you must be careful of how you deal with certain friendships as other people are likely to be going through a difficult time. Around the 17th, disputes are likely with children and loved ones and could make you feel frustrated. Try releasing your emotions with a good movie, book or perhaps a hot fragrant bath.

This should be a period of nostalgia when happy memories come flooding back. If you’re looking for a new home then the ideal one will soon emerge. Between the 6th-20th there is a chance that you may let a career opportunity slip through your fingers by being too slow off the mark. By all means do some careful investigating and ask someone who is more experienced than you for help as it would a shame to miss out on extra cash or a prestigious position.

This is the start of a rather busy period in which you will be dealing with correspondence, getting on the phone, sending emails and faxes and rushing around your local neighbourhood at top speed. Your days will be filled with activity and you will buzzing from one job to another like a demented bee. You could meet someone in the most unusual circumstances and want to develop the friendship further, but the best thing to do is to be a bit cautious.

The Full Moon is in your financial house so you’d better dust off the account books and take a good look at the figures. I’m certain there are expenses to be cut and savings to be made. If you’ve felt down a bit in self-confidence or have felt trapped or restricted by some aspect of your life or some person, it will dawn on you that it’s probably been your own attitude that has kept you tied down. Now you’re ready to break free so take control of your life.

The Full Moon is in your sign so be careful of arguments and problems in your personal life. If you focus on creating a loving space with your partner, they will surprise you with some new information or knowledge. Expect to spend many hours together just talking about all sorts of aspects of your personal and work life. Avoid getting involved in complicated tasks such as handyman work, or specialty cooking as stupid accidents are likely.

It is especially important that you take steps to look after your health otherwise you are going to fall ill soon. With the planets in such a tense situation in your chart you are going to be feeling stressed out. This is the ideal time in which to take some time out for yourself away from all the demands of your career and family life. Going for a walk or reading a fascinating novel are ideal ways to mentally escape the demands placed on you.

Friends are likely to have a strong influence on you during the next month and old friends that you haven’t seen for awhile shall be in touch. The Sun’s harmonious angle to your sign gives an optimism and vitality to your out-going nature. There may be some disappointments in your social life as arrangements with friends may need to be altered at the last minute so try to have a Plan B up your sleeve to avoid disappointment.
Your home life is going to be rather chaotic and therefore your patience is going to be tested with certain family members. Remember to try to control your temper and count to 10 before you say anything that you will later regret. Recognition will come your way for past efforts where your work is concerned. This is the ideal time to look into possibly changing your career path or to make positive moves to grab the attention of your boss.

Also this is the ideal time to travel overseas or to explore new venues.

Staying Healthy
Susan Garrad
Are the bad guys actually real?
How to keep the kids healthy
Eating a healthy diet is one of the best ways to make sure your children stay fi t and healthy through the sniffl e season. The battle is to get them to eat good foods. Here are my tips: • Make food fun: vary the presentation and combinations of food served. • Serve vegetables raw or lightly cooked: children often prefer them. • Keep a variety of healthy snack options on hand: diced fruit, chopped raw veggies, hommus, nut butters, rice crackers etc. • Encourage a varied diet: offer new foods regularly. • Make sure there is protein (eggs, nuts, fi sh, beef, chicken, lamb etc) in every meal or snack. • Avoid artifi cial colours and flavours and excess sugars.
• Maintain regular bed times. • Encourage daily outdoor activity: organised sports, park time, backyard activities, active toys, playing with pets. • Promote high water intake: a healthy replacement for soft drinks is four parts sparkling mineral water with one part fresh fruit juice. If you need help with your children’s health, make an appointment to see Susan Garrad at Women’s Health, Naturally on 9798 9322. Visit www.womenshealthnaturally. com.au.
Keeping Fit David Stein I got to the cinema this week and saw a real blockbuster style movie with all the special effects and explosions. It’s never the same watching a movie like that at home. You can probably guess the plot, the super heroes are just, noble and will fi ght to save the lives of all people. The bad guys are out to win at all costs and are driven by greed for domination and money and don’t really care how many people die while they try to get it. It always ends with a big fi ght and you walk out of the movie happy when the good side triumphs and everyone is saved and lives happily ever after. It’s a good feeling knowing that there isn’t really those kind of super villains who would actually choose making profit over risking the suff ering, or even death, to real people. So I walked out past the happy kids staring at the giant cut out of one of the stars from the movie with a huge cup of cola in his hand pointing heroically over to the snack bar. Kept walking past the playground with the happy clown inside waving all the boys and girls to come and buy some tasty
hamburgers. Down the stairs out past the sign on a bus shelter saying we really need our cigarettes to have colourful packages or we’re taking away people’s fundamental rights. On past the supermarket with the huge posters of muscular sportsmen letting us know how great their chocolate sugar crunch is for breakfast. I stopped to look at the big display of the same heroes I just watched in their very own game for my console – I could get online and replay the big, end fi ght every day! And as I got to the car I saw the poster that let me know that the best option if my back got sore – maybe from sitting and watching pay TV too much – was a tablet that covered the pain. I was very happy to know that there are no real bad guys who would ever put a profit over my family’s quality of life. I Googled what kills the most people in the whole world just to fi nd out. It said something about obesity and noncommunicable disease. But bad guys don’t have anything to do with that stuff . If they did Captain America and the Hulk would come and stop them.

T
he Building Bridges Festival on May 18 is an evening of music to support refugee rights and campaign against mandatory detention. Th is month mark 20 years of mandatory detention in Australia, says event organiser Ben Eadie, and policies like the Pacifi c Solution, offshore processing, the Malaysia swap deal and the ‘Stop the Boats’ sloganeering. “The festival has been designed to acknowledge the issues faced by asylum seekers over the last 20 years, show support to those currently in detention including children, and establish a clear message that mandatory detention is unacceptable and must cease,” Eadie said. Some of the bands that will take to the stage on the night include top musical acts The Herd, Watussi, Dog Trumpet and ROSiE. Iranian poet, Mohsen Soltani, and his band, Ember, will also address the crowd to share a personal take on the refugee story. The Building Bridges Festival is presented by the Refugee Action Coalition, with profits from the event going to provide funding for the Coalition’s current campaign. The night kicks off at 6pm at the Standard Hotel, Darlinghurst. Entry starts from $20. Tickets are available through Moshtix: www.moshtix. com.au/thestandard.

ewtown’s town square is constantly changing, and the art work on display at the local Art Seat is no exception. The latest work to grace the exhibition space is Angel Photography Series 1998-2012, by awardwinning painter, sculptor and photographer, Andrew May. The series of artworks feature images of an angel wandering inside an abandoned industrial landscape. May set out to depict “a world that could exist in any 20th century decade or metropolis, and which would require the viewer to question where and when the images were made”. “More than a decade after completing the fi rst series, I decided to return to see if I could further explore the idea and produce another body of work. “As the original sites had been replaced by

he Belvoir St Theatre will bring Matthew Whittet’s awardwinning play, Old Man, to the stage in June starring acclaimed Australian actor, Leon Ford, and a talented ensemble cast. Daniel (Ford) wakes up one morning and realises his family has disappeared. There are no toys in the living room, no school bags in the hall and no sign of his wife. As his life unravels, Daniel realises that to grow into the kind of father he wants to be, he must fi nd and reconcile with the father he does not know. Veteran actors, Peter Carroll (The Book of Everything, Happy Days) and Gillian Jones (Scorched, Antigone), appear as Daniel’s parents, and Alison Bell (As You Like It) plays his wife, Sam. The play is an intimate experience, according to director, Anthea Williams. “The fi rst half of Old Man

is almost all direct address and the second half is fourth wall naturalism,” Williams explains. “By the time we get to the second half we know these characters so intimately. “It’s almost like we’ve been able to peek around

TIGER RUMBLINGS Troy Dodds
T
here has been no shortage of coverage about the Wests Tigers battle to fi nd Benji Marshall a halves partner. Tim Sheens has already tried Tim Moltzen, Tom Humble, Jacob Miller and even Chris Lawrence but with Curtis Sironen’s elevation to the VB NSW Cup, you would think that this is the strongest indication that Coach Sheens is considering the young fi ve-eighth for higher honours sooner rather than later. It will be a proud day for Balmain legend and father Paul when he watches his son run out in the jersey he spilt blood for at Henson Park this Saturday. The Australian Rugby League Commission is this week calling on NRL teams, grassroots football and rugby league fans to join the fi ght to help save men’s lives by raising funds and awareness about men’s cancer, which aff ects 50 per cent of Australians by the age of 85. Rugby league’s One Community has partnered with the Cancer Council for the third year, with this weekend’s Round 10 matches from the Telstra Premiership part of the Call To Arms Campaign ‘BBQ for Prostate Cancer’. Last weekend’s game was certainly a heartstopper with the Tigers only getting
Farah will get picked for Origin home by a single point in Extra Time, for the second time this season. Th e victory was important but there’s still problems in the side obviously, given it was such a close call. Expect Robbie Farah to be named as the NSW hooker for Origin I. With a crisis engulfi ng the Blues – only added to by the Michael Jennings situation out at Penrith this week – Farah is indeed a risky selection but on his best form, could be a gamebreaker for the side. The Tigers have the weekend off, and I don’t quite understand why. Th e Rabbitohs are the only other team with a bye and there is zero advantage to having this weekend off. Most teams have byes across the Origin period, which makes sense given so many players are unavailable. The NRL confi rmed on Wednesday that the Tigers v Panthers clash in round 19 will be played on a Saturday night. It’s possible we’ll be watching Toyota Cup matches on free-to-air TV next year. As part of the new TV rights deal, it’s understood there’s a push for under 20’s matches to get a start on the free-to-air rights holder.
New premiers, Balmain SG Ball side, celebrate their win.
It s Tiger talent SG Ball side takes out NSWRL U18s competition
T
he premiershipwinning Balmain SG Ball side has confi rmed its spot as one of the most talented teams in Tigers’ history after finishing the regular season of the NSWRL U18s competition as undefeated minor premiers. In an entertaining and fiery match at St Marys Stadium last Saturday, Balmain beat Canberra 42-20 to claim the grand fi nal title.
Having started the fi nals series as red hot favourites, the Tigers suff ered a setback when fourth-placed Canberra beat them 40-8 in the fi rst week of the playoffs. Balmain then got past Penrith (28-24) and South Sydney (34-26) to earn a place against Canberra in the Grand Final. Coach Andrew Webster said everyone associated with the team should be
proud of the achievement. “To be 9 from 9 was pretty amazing. It was a great achievement but we knew we wanted to go on and win the Grand Final,” Webster said. “It was the little things like putting pressure on kicks, try saving tackles and scrambling for each other.” The young Tigers team will take on the Townsville Stingers this Saturday for the National U18 title.
