SCENE IS SET: Natimuk’s Cody Haustorfer’s passion for storytelling and capturing ‘real emotion’ in video has prompted him to start a project to create a 1940s-style feature-length film. Natimuk and district will be used as a primary backdrop for the film, drawing on elements such as broadacre cropping fields and Mount Arapiles. Story, page 14. Picture: PAUL CARRACER

Hunt for top fishing prize H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham’s annual 44th Labour Day fishing competition this weekend appears likely to reach its maximum number of 1000 entries.

Entries are again flowing in after easing off during the state’s five-day ‘circuit-breaker’ lockdown as people from across the region and beyond explore outdoor family recreation opportunities. One of the biggest lures to this year’s contest, which has dramatically transformed to meet exhaustive

COVID-19 guidelines, is that anyone who enters the annual Wimmera River event can win the major prize – regardless of whether they catch a fish. The event’s major prize has traditionally gone to the angler with the heaviest eligible fish. Contest chairman Ray Howard said the change, which involved an overall entry draw, was based on recognition that people who simply took part were what the contest was all about. “As an inland fishing contest the chances are the relative fish catch will never be that high and we get a lot of feedback from people who come

back year after year but don’t catch anything,” he said. “Everyone now has the chance. You don’t have to catch a fish, you just have to enter to win an overall draw.” First prize this year is a Webbcon Marine boat, trailer and motor package, which headlines a list, that despite an overall competition contraction, still offers more than $30,000 in prizes. Mr Howard reassured angling purists, who used the event as a test of piscatorial skill, that they remained an important part of the contest appeal. “We have major prizes up for grabs

in four species categories – redfin, yellowbelly, catfish and silver perch – each based on the length of fish caught,” he said. “We will also continue to have a carp competition, but we’ve had to make some rule changes here as well. “And you know what, as a point of interest, while a yellowbelly is still likely to be the biggest fish caught in the event, I reckon the longest fish caught could well be a catfish.”

Text catch

To meet strict COVID-19 guidelines, unlike usual years there will be

no stewards to collect eligible fish to a marshalling area for weighing. Instead, anglers will have a registration card with their number and when they catch a fish will take a photograph of their catch with a measure and card. They will then text the image to officials and release the fish back into the river. There will be no traditional presentation event or official gathering area at Sawyer Park and while camping opportunities remain, there will be restrictions involving movement of people.

Spectators guarantee for Stawell BY SARAH MATTHEWS

orthern Grampians Shire business, organisation and community members can better prepare for the region’s economically vital Easter long-weekend following confirmation the 2021 Stawell Gift will proceed as a ‘tier-one’ event.

Organisers of Australia’s richest and most prestigious footrace have won State Government approval to welcome up to 5000 spectators at Central Park each day, from April 3 to 5. Stawell Gift Event Management chair Stephanie Spence said the approval was based on the committee’s extensive COVID-safe plan, the result of a strong ‘team effort’. She said the committee worked closely with councils, Victorian Athletic League and the government to

develop the plan. “Everyone is really passionate about making the Stawell Gift the best event it can be,” she said. “Our focus is on providing the safest, most compliant event we can. It really means a lot to all of us to be able to run this event this year. “We’re looking forward to welcoming fans to Central Park to take in the incredible atmosphere, action and history that is the Powercor Stawell Gift.” Ms Spence said organisers were committed to the safety and wellbeing of spectators, athletes, volunteers and the event workforce and would implement COVID-safe measures throughout the carnival. This includes creating two ticketed spectator zones, with spectators to remain in their zone for the duration of each session; reinforced enhanced

hygiene practices; contact tracing; frequent high-touch surface cleaning; and the use of digital tickets. The Stawell Gift injects millions of dollars into the western Victorian economy each year and is the ‘jewel in the crown’ of Northern Grampians Shire’s events calendar. Until 2020, the gift had been run in all bar four years since 1878. Last year, Stawell Athletic Club decided in mid-March to postpone the carnival because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the pandemic continued to unfold, the decision was taken out of the club’s hands thanks to government-imposed restrictions on events. Yesterday, Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson was among community leaders to welcome the government’s approval of 5000 spectators a day amid challenging times

for event organisers. He said he looked forward to the positive effect spectators would have on the municipality and wider region. “It will be fantastic to welcome back to our region the visitors, spectators, and participants in this momentous event,” he said. “Our region felt sharply the loss of the gift last year, so we are thrilled to have it back in 2021. “With the safety of all involved at the top of our list and taken careful care of by event organisers, I believe the return of the gift this year will be great for the northern Grampians and great for sport in Australia.” Finals of the Powercor Stawell Gift and Change our Game Women’s Gift will be run on Easter Monday and broadcast live on Seven from noon. Ms Spence, who is also Victorian Athletic League president, said ath-

Hunt for top prize in big weekend of fishing From page 1 Organisers will provide competition progress and updates via digital media. People are not allowed to return carp to the river, but volunteers in cars, travelling the length of the contest area from Riverside Bridge to Horsham Weir, will collect the noxious fish for disposal. “When it comes to having a win, to put it simply, people who catch fish will be eligible for all prize draws. People who don’t catch a fish will be eligible for 50 percent of draws including the big one,” Mr How-

letes were thrilled to be able to compete again. “We’ve had some smaller tier-two and tier-three events already and we’ve seen some great running across all distances and categories,” she said. “I’ve had lots of positive feedback from athletes at events in the lead-in to Stawell. “You can train as much as you like but to be able to race – that’s why they do it. They are really happy and thankful to be competing again.” In line with the event’s COVID-safe plan, all tickets for the Stawell Gift must be purchased electronically. Tickets will go on sale online at premier.ticketek.com.au by March 12. People can visit www.stawellgift. com for more information about the Easter carnival, along with an extensive list of answers to ‘frequently asked questions’.

ard said. “We’ve had to change the competition completely, but we’re confident everything is in place and we’re pretty well prepared. “We’re anticipating we’ll get our 1000 entries.” The Weekly Advertiser has continued its strong support as major sponsor and many other businesses have also rallied behind the iconic event. Mr Howard urged visitors taking part in the competition to show their support to the Horsham district business community with patronage. “We put all the money we raise back into local businesses and that’s

why it was important to keep the event going,” he said. “Businesses have done it hard, so this should be a good boost for the economy. It is also about giving people a chance to return to some normality and to go fishing.” Mr Howard appealed for the help and patience of all involved in working with the new format. “It is going to be very new for us as well and there are sure to be some teething issues,” he said. “The key is that people can get in touch with us or find out more about how everything operates via

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

our website or through social media.” Wimmera catchment leaders, meanwhile, are confident Wimmera River conditions will be ideal for the Sunday event. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority chief executive David Brennan said environmental flows had combined with favorable weather to flush away a ‘blackwater’ threat in Horsham. “It’s fair to say we’ve dodged a bullet in regard to water-quality issues in Horsham and latest assessments suggest the river will be ideal for fishing,” he said.

Wimmera health-care leaders have marked mid-March for a COVID-19 vaccine program in the region after the first thawed doses of the Pfizer vaccine arrived in Ballarat this week. Wimmera Health Care Group acting chief executive Maree Woodhouse said planning was underway with Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital, West Wimmera Health Service, Rural Northwest Health and Horsham Rural City Council for the region’s vaccination program. Ms Woodhouse said the vaccine would likely become available after March 15 and frontline health workers would be first in line. “Each health service has a number of immunisers undertaking the mandated training to be ready to start the vaccination program,” she said. “A Grampians public health unit has the responsibility of vaccinating all aged-care patients in public sector residential aged-care facilities and that work has started this week in the Ballarat area.” Ballarat Health Services, which is a vaccination hub for the Grampians region, started its vaccination program on Sunday. The health service expects to receive an additional 1000 doses next week, which will be available for health-care staff who fall into a category ‘phase 1a’ of the roll-out. Mass vaccination clinics will also be established in Ballarat, Ararat and Horsham, as well as mobile vaccination clinics. Ballarat Health Services expects to complete its vaccination program of the Grampians region by October.

Feast to return in 2022

he success of a 150km Feast event on the banks of the Wimmera River in Horsham last weekend has spurred organisers to immediately start planning for the event’s return next year.

Horsham Agricultural Society’s Andrea Cross said ‘everyone was thrilled to bits’ with how the event unfolded and the society was looking confidently forward to more projects. “It was just a huge success. Everything came together just as we planned it and we’re absolutely going to do it again,” she said. “In fact we’re going to have a little pop-up Sunday afternoon feast in our Stockman’s Beer Garden on March 21 as we continue to activate the river precinct at Maydale Reserve.” More than 300 people, across two nights, soaked up a twilight experience at Maydale Reserve in Horsham Showground while experiencing food and beverages created within a 150-kilome-

tre radius of Horsham. The event attracted an enthusiastic response despite having been postponed by the state’s sudden ‘circuit-breaker’ lockdown last month. “The feedback has been positively overwhelming and that inspires us to continually look at opportunities,” Mrs Cross said. “We thank everyone who provided

support and have businesses keen to be involved and share in the success and the development of the next event. “I’m hoping in the future we can ultimately develop the feast into a weeklong festival and really turn it into a Wimmera celebration of the agricultural landscape in which we live.”

‘We can’t do it alone’ A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Stawell health-care leader believes the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted a need for regional health services to work closer together to maximise hospital resources and provide better services.

Stawell Regional Health chief executive Kate Pryde said the health service was part of a ‘partnership conversation’ between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services. Ms Pryde said strengthening partnerships with other health services would be a suitable option in helping meet service needs for the rural hospital and Stawell community. She said collaborating with Ballarat during the COVID-19 pandemic provided an example how health services could work better together. “When the pandemic came, one of the things that came about was what the government called clusters and as part of that, Ballarat Health Services became our lead,” she said. “Through that process, as a small health service, we were able to tap into infectious-disease specialists and gain a lot of support, which allowed us to have the best response possible. “We could not have done what we did alone – Ballarat gave us a platform to be

able to work really closely with our community.” Ms Pryde said partnering with Ballarat and Wimmera Health Care Group would allow the health service to focus on resourcing priority areas in the hospital. “The truth is, we’ve benefited greatly from different partnerships across the region to get a better bang for our buck,” she said. “We can look to some bigger services and tap into what they have to allow us to build for the future. “That will give us more resources to buy the medial equipment we need and upgrade the facilities to the level they need to be at. “And it’s not just about getting more nurses, doctors and clinicians. We also have a maintenance team, trainees and apprentices working here. “We also need to be compliant around legislation and law, but I don’t have a team of lawyers or a lot of the resources bigger hospitals have.” The partnership conversation will tie into a 10 to 20-year long-term plan the health-service management board is developing to ensure the group’s future viability and ability to provide appropriate services for the Stawell community. Ms Pryde said Stawell Regional Health was looking at three options to improve

its service, which included remaining independent, strengthening partnerships or voluntary amalgamation. She said the board was inviting the community to provide feedback on its planning through a range of consultation activities that started this month. “Right now, the way any amalgamation might look is in a design phase – that’s why we’re asking for feedback from the community,” she said. “I hear a lot of concern about autonomy. Our community wants autonomy, so we need to understand how we can achieve that. “People also keep saying we need to lobby for more money, but money alone is not the answer to improving health care. “Money is part of it, but it’s also about using our money better by capitalising on capacity in the region. “You could throw all the money in the world at Stawell Regional Health, but that can’t buy me all the doctors I need, the education we need to provide, a lawyer that looks at legislation – it’s not just about money.” People can provide feedback on the health service’s future planning at: srh. org.au/about/future-planning-for-stawellregional-health-have-your-say/feedbackon-the-future-planning-for-stawell-regional-health/ until May 21.

Primed for plastic push

lichés have flowed in response to a development concept that has floated in the Wimmera ether for what now seems an eternity.

Stoic realists in positions of authority have responded with terms such as ‘castle in the air’, a ‘pie in the sky’, a ‘pipe dream’ and, with an accompanying a groan, ‘flogging a dead horse’. There’s even been the full-stop comment – ‘won’t happen!’ Okay, I’ll put my hand up in admitting to being a prime protagonist in spruiking the potential of a compostable-plastic primary industry in the Wimmera. I can’t help it. Growing up in a region where a primary starch-based product used in compostable plastic spreads in all directions to the horizon as stubble provides a constant inspiration. So too is the understanding that we were casually exploring this ‘extrusion’ technology in Horsham through oilseeds research more than 30 years ago. It seems that while we have been happy to

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson consume and throw away one-use, long-life petroleum-based products there has been little need for circumstances to change. But times are, and importantly sentiment is, changing. Petroleum plastic waste is resilient to the forces of nature and even when it breaks down remains with us as a residual product that causes environmental havoc, contaminating the food chain. It has led to a global environmental disaster. If something is a large enough threat then governments ultimately step in and we’re now seeing regulatory moves to ban the use of some plastic products.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Amalgamation

The State Government has announced it will ban specific single-use plastics such as straws, cutlery, plates and polystyrene containers by 2023. This decision, similar to other state announcements, was inevitable and probably represents the start of something much broader. It stands to reason that if you remove something that people have come to expect, society will demand a replacement. While recycling works to some degree, our desire for the convenient ‘disposal’ is unlikely to wane. Sorry idealists, but we will want to continue to buy, consume and throw away. Compostable plastic throwaway products, made from cellulose and starch polymers that organically degrade and are at a base level non-polluting, are becoming more prominent in the marketplace. In the Wimmera we have the primary product seemingly readily available and even collection and storage mechanisms in place. Am I still dreaming?

SIR, – To those concerned, I write in support of the views of Emma Kealy and Bill Ower regarding the future of health services in the Wimmera area and the proposed joining with Ballarat. Will there be a public meeting in the town hall? Will all options be explored? I am reminded of the past merging of Horsham high and technical schools. Extensive public meetings were held and the community was overwhelmingly in favour of keeping both schools. That did not happen. Does the term déjà vu apply in this situation? Has amalgamation been in fact ‘predetermined’? Ross Warrick Horsham

Voices heard

REACHING OUT: From left, Horsham East Rotary Club president Zane Bell, Horsham Rotary Club president Douglas Mitchell and Terry White Chemmart pharmacist Amanda Carracher promote Rotary Outreach Myeloma Project. Rotary clubs of Horsham, Horsham East, Warracknabeal and Nhill are supporting the Rotary Outreach Myeloma Project instigated by Rotary Club of Camberwell. Myeloma is a type of bone-marrow cancer.

People seeking information can call myeloma support nurse Emma-Jane Furphy on 0426 404 233 or email EJ.Furphy@myeloma. org.au. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

SIR, – I would like to thank all the community members who have reached out to me since the board of the Wimmera Health Care Group made public their aims to expand a partnership with Ballarat Health Services, including a proposal to merge the organisations. Your voices have been heard. Horsham Rural City Council is advocating for our hospital medical services and our region’s biggest employer to remain in local hands. We will fight to keep operations in Horsham and avoid at all costs a centralisation to Ballarat Health Services, by recommending a merger of Wimmera Southern Mal-

lee Health Alliance hospitals for our region. It is imperative we retain our WHCG services locally, as health is our city’s major employer. I also urge our Victorian Minister for Health Mr Foley to please consider the financial resources we need to ensure we retain our health services, which form the backbone of our community in services and jobs. And our Federal Minister Mr Hunt to support a Wimmera Southern Mallee Health Alliance with the funding packages required to ensure our ageing population is taken care of. Our council group is working hard to make Horsham come into line with Ballarat as a major rural city, not a lesser city. A centralisation of services to Ballarat will only set us back, when we are about to move forward. Cr Claudia Haenel Horsham

Grateful

SIR, – I am writing to say how lucky we are around here. I have been for two weeks of respite at both Rainbow and Natimuk hospitals and I have felt so blessed by the wonderful staff at both hospitals. They are all so caring and don’t make you feel stupid when you make silly mistakes. Please people, please be grateful for these wonderful staff – so caring always. God bless them all.

JOBS AND TENDERS

MAYORAL MATTERS with Cr Massey On Tuesday 26 January I attended an Australia Day breakfast at Rupanyup to perform two important functions. The first was to present Michael Woods with a certificate as Yarriambiack Shire’s Citizen of the Year for 2020. Michael has been an active volunteer with many of Rupanyup’s community groups. The growth of the Woods’ Farming and Heritage Museum over the past few years is testimony to Michael’s desire to preserve Rupanyup’s cultural and agricultural history. My second task was to conduct a ceremony whereby Muiz Maafa became an Australian citizen. Muiz came to Australia from Algeria in 2004 and shifted to Rupanyup in November 2019. He is looking forward to meeting more people and becoming active in the Rupanyup community. I congratulate Lachie Stewart for receiving the award for Young Citizen of the Year. Lachie provided active leadership in the sports program at Warracknabeal Secondary College. Cr Kylie Zanker presented the certificate as part of Warracknabeal’s Australia Day ceremony. Council held its first meeting for the year on Wednesday 27 January. We face another challenging year. One of our key objectives is to hold community forums in all fourteen towns so that we can learn what residents want to see included in our Council Plan. The four-year strategic plan now has to include a ten-year community vision that is supported by a financial and asset management plan that will help achieve this. Over the next few weeks Councillors will also be discussing how to resolve housing shortages in our towns, the provision of child-care in the southern part of the shire, the streetscaping of our main streets and the progress of grant applications to improve caravan parks at Warracknabeal and Minyip and the construction of a supermarket at Beulah. REQUEST TO NAME UN-NAMED ROAD NORTH OF MAXWELLS ROAD, LASCELLES Council received a letter requesting to name the Un-named Road from Maxwells Road to the driveway of residence at 32 Maxwells Road, Lascelles.

UPDATE ON 2021 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS Yarriambiack Shire Council invites all residents across the shire to attend a Community Engagement Session to discuss the future needs of their town. The Community Engagement Sessions are the first activity in the extensive process of developing the 2021 – 2024 Council Plan. The 2021 – 2024 Council Plan will include: • A community vision for the next 10 years: in 2031, what does your town look like, who lives here, what services and infrastructure are needed? • A strategic plan to work towards for the next 4 years: What can we do by 2024 to achieve these community goals? • A financially stable budget plan for the next 10 years: How do we best use Council funds to achieve these goals? What grants and alternative funding opportunities are required? • An Asset Management Plan: We need to plan for maintenance as well as new projects. How do we balance this over time? This is your opportunity to tell Council what your community needs! Councillors and Council staff will visit each town to discuss the future needs of each community, including areas such as roads and infrastructure, sport and recreation, economic development and tourism and family and health services. These forums will assist Council in making informed decisions about the next 10 years for each of our communities. It is important to us that we engage with all members of the community during this process. Tier 1 sessions are a general forum covering all aspects of Council and community. Tier 2 sessions will include specific discussions with Councillors and the extended Senior Leadership Team on 5 areas: • Roads and Infrastructure • Family and Health • Economic Development And Tourism • Sport and Recreation • Council Services In addition to the community engagement sessions there has been a survey developed to obtain additional information. The online survey can be found at https:// yarriambiack.vic.gov.au/community-events/2021community-engagement-sessions/.

Kealy: Under own steam N

BY DEAN LAWSON

ew medical services at Nhill have provided Member for Lowan Emma Kealy with fuel for her stand against a proposed merger between Wimmera and Ballarat health services.

Ms Kealy said a West Wimmera Health Service announcement that a surgeon and psychiatrist would soon be visiting and providing regular services from Nhill Hospital showed what was possible. “While this far from indicates that we don’t have all sorts of health-service-access issues across the Wimmera-Mallee, it does provide a glimpse that where there’s a will there’s a way,” she said. “It tells us we don’t have to lose our local voice and-or autonomy. “The answers are there, we just need the State Government to admit the system it has been overseeing is not only inadequate, but can be resolved with a little bit of attention that avoids regressive centralisation.” While supportive of essential part-

nership arrangements between public health services, Ms Kealy said she remained vehemently opposed to a formal voluntary merger between Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services. She said the argument had reached an inevitable stage where community rumour and innuendo surrounding the motives for merger had become rife. “This is obscuring objective debate. The government must immediately look into this so it can, if appropriate, nip it in the bud. It also must declare its position,” she said. “I stress again, amalgamation between Wimmera and Ballarat health groups will not address fundamental issues based on workforce, funding and infrastructure investment.”

West Wimmera

West Wimmera Health Service announced its new medical services, which followed up the confirmation of a new general practitioner starting in Nhill, last week. Ballarat-based surgeon Ahmed Naqeeb will soon start visiting Nhill Hospital to provide general surgery and psychiatrist Dr Hieu Pham is

“It will make a real difference to our communities in terms of time saved and avoiding the general inconvenience of travelling out of the area”

general practitioners in the region. Dr Pham’s areas of expertise include addiction, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, depression, dementia, mindfulness, post-traumatic stress disorder and schizophrenia. “Mental health is one of the numerous health issues that are generally significantly more challenging for rural communities,” Mr Dodds said. “This service, plus the training Dr Pham intends to provide to our staff around caring for people with mental-health issues, will be invaluable for all concerned.” The moves coincide with Rural Doctors contracting a new general practitioner to consult from its Nhill medical clinic. Dr Ning Wang has moved from Mildura and his appointment brings the number of Nhill-based general practitioners back up to four. “We’re very grateful for the quality of care and general reliability Rural Doctors has brought to our communities. They’re a joy to work with,” Mr Dodds said.

also looking to start regular visits to Nhill. Health service chief executive Ritchie Dodds said confirmation of Mr Naqeeb’s services represented ‘big relief’. “We haven’t been able to provide this type of service locally for some time,” he said. “It will make a real difference to our communities in terms of time saved and avoiding the general inconvenience of travelling out of the area. “I can personally attest that the last thing you want to have to do or think about before and after a colonoscopy is travel and accommodation.” Mr Dodds said Dr Pham’s regular visits, as well as medical services, would provide education opportunities for health-service staff and

Taig: Business clarity is needed els, a more nuanced response to outbreaks and more consistent, accurate and timely communication. Business Horsham ambassador Stacey Taig said while the threat of COVID-19 outbreaks remained, it was critical the State Government had greater consideration for regional Victoria. “This is more than likely going to happen again,” she said. “We have a lot of businesses that are already in financial situations that are beyond their control. “To have even one day of business closure makes a big impact.” Ms Taig said she acknowledged the five-day statewide lockdown was to prevent a possible third wave and

BY DYLAN DE JONG

orsham business leaders have joined a chorus of Victorian businesses calling for a State Government review of how it responds to COVID-19 outbreaks.

Business Horsham has backed representative body Victorian Regional Business Alliance in a campaign that urges the government to consider a ‘more direct response’ to lockdowns to mitigate the economic impact of future lockdowns. The call followed the government’s ‘circuit-breaker’ lockdown in mid February. The alliance has written to Premier Daniel Andrews asking for greater clarity on the range of restriction lev-

the potential for further ‘catastrophic’ health and economic impacts. But she added a total shutdown of the economy should not be the only answer if Victorians were to live with some level of the virus in the community into the future. “There is a necessity in lockdowns to avoid extended lockdowns for the safety of the community,” Ms Taig said. “But there was no warning and the reality is, these lockdowns cannot really be avoided because they’re needed to stop the virus from spreading. “On the flip side of that – it had a huge impact on businesses and many are really struggling.” Ms Taig said while it was hard to

estimate total economic losses during the lockdown period, stage-four restrictions would have resulted in thousands of dollars in trade losses, especially for hospitality and retail businesses. In response to the economic hardship, the State Government announced a $143-million Circuit Breaker Support Package to help businesses and sole traders. However, Ms Taig said businesses had inundated Business Horsham with phone calls, seeking help in applying for the package due to eligibility concerns. “Businesses have to go through the process to see if they’re eligible, and unfortunately, there are businesses

that fall through the cracks and do not fit the criteria,” she said. “It can be daunting to apply for support and most find it is too hard and walk away.” Ms Taig said the Victorian business alliance would also ask the government to better equip relevant government departments to handle business inquiries. “This is about ensuring that when the next lockdown happens, something is put in place to support businesses and it is rolled out very quickly,” she said. “There also seems to be a big lag time in applying and finding out if you are eligible or not.” The business alliance is also seeking greater clarity for border communities. IMMERSED IN CULTURE: Horsham’s Daphne Williams, 91, has used the build-up to International Women’s Day to look back over her life-long dedication to working with indigenous artists across Australia.

A lifetime dedicated to helping A Horsham woman widely respected for her work with indigenous artists has taken the opportunity to reflect on her career helping others in the build-up to International Women’s Day on Monday. Daphne Williams, 91, was awarded an Order of Australia Medal in 1991 for her contribution to the world of indigenous art through her management of galleries, particularly during her years working in the Northern Territory. Mrs Williams’ deep interest in Aboriginal art and culture inspired her to dedicate much of her career to the art-management industry right up until she moved to Victoria 11 years ago. “I was working for a government-owned Aboriginal art gallery and later went to work for Pappunya Tula Artists, which is owned by the traditional Aboriginal people from the Western Desert,” Mrs Williams said. “I enjoyed visiting indigenous communities. Although, in the early years there wasn’t accommodation and you had to camp in a swag, but I learnt a lot about Aboriginal people and their way of life.” Mrs Williams, who managed the Pappunya Tula Artists gallery, helped set the business and

the artists on a path to success – both nationally and internationally. A highlight in the gallery’s history included a commission request for five Pappunya Tula designs for the court of Australia’s new parliament House in 1988. “An art collector I had worked with nominated me and apparently the government thought I had done a good job in placing these galleries into a successful position,” Mrs Williams said. “I only found out through a letter from the government. I was quite surprised, and my kids really urged me to accept it.” Mrs Williams lives at Ingenia Gardens in Horsham, a community for independent seniors, close to one of her sons. Ingenia Gardens manager Barbara Cavanagh said it was wonderful to have a such a humble and kind lady such as Mrs Williams in the community. “Daphne has a very active and quick mind and she’s such a social member of our community,” she said. “She’s had such an incredible life, and her personality clearly reflects the joy and passion she put into her work and family life.”

‘Field days’ in full swing

arm-industry businesses across the region are three days into a five-day virtual event that aims to reproduce a Wimmera Machinery Field Days experience. Businesses have joined The Weekly Advertiser, 3WM and MIXX FM for ACE Radio network’s AgLife Digital event – filling a trading void caused by the cancellation of the 2021 field days. A contingent of Wimmera businesses have invited industry professionals to ‘talk shop’ with customers as well as provide demonstrations and farm machinery ‘come-anddrive’ opportunities. ACE Radio Broadcasters Horsham sales manager Mark Sulic invited Wimmera people to take advantage of participating businesses’ in-store events throughout this week. “This event is just warming up and we are overjoyed with how it’s been running so far,” he said. “We are thankful WimmeraMallee farm-industry businesses jumped at this opportunity.

“And after farmers experienced a couple of great years in crop production in our region, we wanted to try to recreate some of that buzz the field days normally generates.” Radio presenters Adam Roche from 3WM and MIXX FM’s Kaycee Bould have joined businesses

throughout the week to provide the region with live-to-air interviews about business promotions and the agricultural industry. The network is also encouraging people to visit an AgLife website, aglife.com.au, to enter into a draw to win a $200 Shop Horsham gift

card. People can also enter a colouring competition to win one of five $50 vouchers from Toyworld Horsham. People can visit aglife.com.au for more information about AgLife Digital events happening this week.

Accolades for agent Dimboola farmer and auctioneer Will Schilling was runner-up in a state award despite only having a few years’ experience in the industry. The Horsham Driscoll, McIllree and Dickinson, DMD, agent received the accolade last week as part of an Australian Livestock and Property Agents Association Victorian Young Auctioneers competition. Mr Schilling said the competition in Shepparton, which involved auctioning off livestock, was only his second time selling cattle. “The first time I sold cattle was in this competition the year prior,” he said. Mr Schilling, 25, joined DMD Horsham in February 2018, a few years after leaving school to become a shearer. He said having a loud, deep, clear voice helped command the direction of a sale. “When you go to a sale and have an agent who really knows how to project their voice well, it can suck you in as soon as you hear them,” he said. “When you first start selling it is daunting because you’re dealing with blokes who want them as cheap as they can get them, but you just have to give it a crack.” Mr Schilling said among his mentors was DMD Horsham manager Stephen Kelly. “Stephen’s not only a work mentor but also a life mentor. He’s had a huge influence not only on my career but also who I am as a person,” he said.

More than 30 people from across the Wimmera and southern Mallee are taking on formal and experiential learning opportunities for the next 10 months as part of the programs. They will ‘learn more about themselves, others and the region while unlocking new avenues to provide leadership and contribute effectively and positively in their workplace, community and personal lives’. Eighteen people have accepted an offer to complete Leadership Wimmera’s Business Leaders program, designed for people who own or run a business, lead a team and have influence in their workplace. They spent the weekend at Roses Gap in the Grampians on an opening retreat. A further 13 people will complete the Regional Skills program, designed for people wanting to build skills to enhance participation in workplace, community and personal arenas. Participants apply what they learn through development of a community project as part of their program year. The Regional Skills group’s retreat was delayed due to the COVID-19 ‘circuit-breaker’ lockdown and is now scheduled for this month. Leadership Wimmera program manager Jessica Grimble said this year’s cohort represented 20 Wimmera and southern Mallee workplaces and many more community groups. “Leadership Wimmera offers a unique opportunity for personal and professional growth in a local setting and with like-minded locals who become an important network during and after programs,” she said. “Our flagship community leadership programs have strong support from many businesses and organisations, who recognise an opportunity to invest in their people and grow and develop skills locally. “Including discussion and education about regional challenges and opportunities, along with more program days, are exciting additions

to our long-running programs this year. Then, through the Leadership Wimmera graduate network, people and businesses can seek specific skills and advice that will apply to businesses or community groups – or everyday life. “Last year these initiatives ranged from best practice community engagement and change management, to building resilience in the early weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic, to sought-after governance courses with the Australian Institute of Company Directors.” Ms Grimble welcomed confirmation the State Government would continue supporting community leadership programs in 2021. “The State Government’s support helps Leadership Wimmera offer subsidised opportunities for people to participate in a range of opportunities that will boost their knowledge of community leadership – including our year-long program and other initiatives to support local leaders and learning locally,” she said. ACE Radio, through The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM, will continue its role as major sponsor of Leadership Wimmera. Financial and in-kind support from Leading Teams Australia, Agriculture Victoria, the Minerals Council of Australia, The Hugh Williamson Foundation, Robyn and Des Lardner, Wimmera Business Centre, Horsham Rotary Club and Wimmera Development Association also enables individuals to participate in the program. Leadership Wimmera, which operates under Wimmera Development Association, started in 2002 and has supported the development of almost 600 emerging leaders in the region through its flagship programs.

Council updates tourism model

oving a tourist information centre and adopting more digital technologies is part of Ararat Rural City Council’s plan to increase visitation in the region.

Part of the council’s new visitor servicing plan include relocating the city’s visitor information centre to Ararat art gallery. Plans also involved starting a tourism ambassador program to greet visitors on arrival and adopting more digital technologies with ‘smart cities’ applications that directly link to dining and accommodation options, plus nature-based tourism experiences. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the tourism servicing reform would enable the council to boast the region’s range of ‘extraordinary’ tourism offerings, such as historical attractions, food, wine and natural wonders. “While return visitors continue to come to the region, recognition of the Grampians as a tourism destination from the massive cohort of first-time holiday makers has been in decline,” he said. “We have continued to offer the same old tourism servicing model, which has not kept pace with advances in digital technology to directly engage with and capture more people.” In 2019, Grampians Tourism commissioned a review into the future of visitor servicing in the Grampians region. Dr Harrison said the review recommended developing a multi-channel plan to integrate tourism servicing, whereby a common Grampians brand would be established. He said moving the visitor information centre, using digital channels and enhancing

face-to-face servicing was a key part of the multi-channel approach. “Moving the visitor information centre to the gallery is not only a sensible decision for its location – at a council attraction with an adjacent cafe – but it also improves efficiency by deploying existing expert staff to provide a more customer friendly and enhanced experience for visitors,” he said. Dr Harrison said ‘Grampians Life’ and ‘Made the Grampians Way’ websites, along with marketing campaigns, had proved ‘extremely’ successful in enhancing brand awareness and the premium lifestyle and produce the region offered. “This has enabled us to get on the front foot to take advantage of the large number of people who, in response to the health crisis, are seeking to relocate to regional Victoria,” he said. “In addition, restrictions in the global export market have increased consumers’ reliance on domestic products. “As the nation’s food bowl, where we produce the best premium food and produce, we want the domestic market to shift its focus here. “A year of uncertainty and imposed lockdowns really hurt the bottom line of local retail and hospitality businesses. “In order to recover, they need us to support them with some fresh thinking.”

Wimmera Southern Mallee LLEN project officer Vanessa O’Loughlin said youth mentors came from all walks of life, had a variety of skills and abilities, and could be aged 18 or older. “All we ask is that you are based in and around the Wimmera-southern Mallee, are kind, non-judgmental, flexible, patient, reliable and most importantly willing to support a young person and make a difference in their life,” she said.

“We need more than 100 new volunteers to fill the hats of youth mentors. But we will take as many volunteers as we can as there are always young people who can benefit from having a positive mentor in their life.” Mrs O’Loughlin said mentors supported young people in Better Futures, Mates Mentoring and L2P Learner Driver Mentor programs. Wimmera woman Sarah Rowe has been a mentor for more than three years and described her role as ‘life-changing’. “I have been lucky enough to listen and support my mentee as she’s navigated her way through year nine and beyond,” she said. “I got to dance with her at her debutante ball, which was such a wonderful opportunity. “I’ve gained a wonderful new friend and I’m so proud to see the amazing young woman she

has become. You can really gain from the experience and most importantly gain a sense of accomplishment knowing you are positively impacting the life of another person.” Mrs O’Loughlin said mentors not only improved their interpersonal skills and developed more empathy, but also gained a deeper understanding of the issues facing young people. She said this year’s theme was #hatsofftomentors. “Keep an eye out around Horsham for maroon-colored hats that will be dotted in public spaces. These represent the number of young people who need a mentor in their lives,” she said. Information sessions will be at The Station, on Friday, March 26. To register, people can visit mentormonth.eventbrite.com.au or call Mrs O’Loughlin on 0418 312 556.

Cody sets scene W

BY DYLAN DE JONG

hat started out as a fascination with film and television has spiralled into a more serious venture for Natimuk’s Cody Haustorfer.

5TH - 8TH

Cody’s passion for storytelling and capturing ‘real emotion’ in video has prompted him to start a project to create a 1940s-style feature-length film. The young multi-skilled film-maker will act, film and edit the movie with help from his cameraman, Horsham’s Michael Collins. The film will transition through a series of themes and storylines, with the main focus on the Second World War. Cody, 18, said Natimuk and district would be used as a primary backdrop for the film, drawing on elements such as broadacre cropping fields and Mount Arapiles. “I’m also going to have to rely on visual effects – I will film around Natimuk, but I will choose separate locations for the opening and closing of the film so it doesn’t look familiar,” he said. “The start of the film is pre-war and the end of the film will be post-war.” Cody said as part of the film, he would seek talent from the Wimmera to play supporting roles. “The cast at the moment is me as the lead character and I haven’t got extras or any other characters sorted out just yet – but I’m always looking for people who are keen to take part,” he said. Cody said his love for film and editing started in his early teens, when he saved all his money from working at The Nati Pub for his first piece of filming equipment. “The first piece of equipment I bought was a Canon Powershot – that’s a nice little entry level camera, perfect for amateur film-makers,” he said. “I started making videos on YouTube, then I stepped up to the next camera – I saved up more money just to buy more equipment.” Cody said while film-making equipment could

Cody Haustorfer

be expensive, he was always determined to make the most of whatever he could afford at the time. “I learnt along the way that it doesn’t matter if it’s the crappiest camera, as long as you can create something with it,” he said. “From there, you can build on that and learn and upgrade your equipment as you evolve as a film-maker.” He also admitted most of his best ideas for films came to him while he worked his day job. “I now work as a labourer during the day, that keeps me occupied,” he said. “I find that working here is where I get some of my best ideas, because I have that time to think while working and I can go home and write those ideas down and make a start on a film.” Cody said he drew a great deal of inspiration from the likes of American film director, screenwriter, producer and actor Quentin Tarantino, and British-American film director, producer, and screenwriter Christopher Nolan. “There are many other directors who have inspired me, but those are the big ones,” he said. Cody said the most important aspect of creating content was telling a story that evoked an emotional response from the audience. “When you tell a story that makes the audience feel something – you’ve done your job,” he said. “Whether you love it or hate it, if you feel something towards it, then it’s a success.”

Sci App. Sci (Chiropractic), DACCP Dr. Pauline Walsh B.B. Clinc Headaches – they’re common, in fact they are so common that pharmaceutical companies would have you believe that they’re normal and they have a list of pills for a quick fix so you can soldier on with your day. So what’s the best thing to do? 1) S top and think why you have a headache, maybe you need to have a couple of glasses of water, maybe eat something, maybe you need to sit out of the glaring hot sun, maybe you’re tired? 2) H ave those 2 glasses of water and sit quietly and have a rest if you can. 3) See your chiropractor. Chiropractors are great at looking after headaches. A good chiropractor will listen and take a comprehensive history. They will check your spine to see what stiffness and fixations are attributing to the problem. It maybe a simple adjustment that helps you or it maybe more complicated. No matter what the issue a good chiropractor can assist and guide you to have the best possible outcome and work with other professionals to the benefit of your health. Interesting fact : children suffer headaches and migraines, however they often start off as tummy pains and as the child gets older become headaches and migraines. Chiropractors are good at identifying these issues.

WINERY BACKS MUSICIANS: A percentage of sales from Billie Stapleton’s charity wine labels will go towards supporting musicians and music workers in crisis.

Grape support

BY DYLAN DE JONG

life deeply rooted in music and the arts has provided inspiration for an Araratbased winery director to donate money to musicians and music workers in need.

Montara Wines managing director Billie Stapleton launched two charity wine labels to support musicians who were ‘greatly’ affected during the COVID-19 pandemic. A percentage of each sale of the winery’s sparkling rosé and cabernet merlot, under the label Billie and Co Wines, is going towards Support Act – an Australian charity that supports the music industry. “When COVID hit, I had so many friends who lost all their gigs,” Ms Stapleton said. “I have another friend who is 50 and gigged her whole life. COVID was the first time in her life she had no work. “For all of those people, I felt shock and dismay and I just thought, what can I do to help? “I was a professional musician for the first half of my life and have many family members who still work solely as musicians and don’t have a side job. “We’ve all grown up around theatre. Even my mum was a professional dancer. “It felt like when a crisis like this happens, peo-

ple don’t see the arts as a real job, but it definitely is. When people are down the first thing they turn to is music to lift them up.” At the beginning of the pandemic, State Government-imposed lockdowns meant most events, including live music and performances, were cancelled. Many musicians and artists turned to virtual technology to livestream their performances, while music venues across the state were restricted from running events. Despite live music making a return to venues across the state, data has revealed more than 50 percent of Victorians working in the industry considered leaving. Ms Stapleton said it was critical for the public to support musicians in any way they could while the music industry was still being affected by the pandemic. “We need live music back in full force – but we also need to keep our community safe,” she said. “I would implore people to listen to music over Spotify or support artists if they have something on YouTube and subscribe to their channel. “I’m hoping there will be more events as we move through the pandemic – in the meantime, we need to support artists in digital forums and stay connected with our community.”

Locating dangerous roads Wimmera-Mallee residents can have their say in locating the most dangerous roads in the region as part of a road-safety survey. Car insurance provider RACV is calling on regional Victorians to identify dangerous roads, as part of its My Country Road Survey. The survey uses an interactive map showing high-speed roads, 80kmh or faster, with the most crashes causing death or serious injury in regional Victoria. RACV will use input from regional Victorian

drivers to lobby all levels of government to make rural roads safer and look at lowering speeds on some roads to match conditions. The organisation’s survey comes in response to the latest road-crash statistics, which revealed more than half of road deaths occurred on regional roads in the past five years compared with metropolitan areas.

Call for city panel

orsham residents have an opportunity to nominate for a community panel designed to play a central role in establishing a 20-year vision for the municipality.

Horsham Rural City Council is calling for expressions of interest to be part of the Horsham Rural City Talks community panel. Mayor Robyn Gulline said the council would partner with the community during the next six months to design the future of the region through the Horsham Rural City Talks project. “A ‘community vision’ will set out the longterm social, economic, cultural and environmental aspirations of the Horsham region,” she said. “It will capture the community’s voice about what is important now and in the future.” Cr Gulline said Horsham Rural City Talks was designed to get people talking about the future of the municipality. “After a tough year for many last year, we want to make the most of the opportunity a new year and a new council present, to get people talking about what we value most and what needs to change,” she said. “The community vision will be developed and owned by the community, with the council facilitating a collaborative process. Together, we will

explore what we want our municipality to be like 20 years from now, and decide on what we need to prioritise to achieve the outcomes we want.” The council will use the community vision to guide planning and decision-making – in particular a four-year council plan. Opportunities to contribute to Horsham Rural City Talks, including surveys, hosted Community Conversations and a new community panel will be between February and June. “We want you to imagine the Horsham region in 2041,” Cr Gulline said. “What do you hope our community will look, feel and be like? What would you change? What do we need to focus on to make Horsham Rural City the best it can be? “No matter where you live in our municipality, we want to hear your opinions and ideas on these important questions.” The community panel will be made up of about 40 people of different ages, backgrounds, locations and interests. Independent consultants will select panel members, who will not require any special knowledge to take part. Expression of interest close on March 31. People can register interest and find out more online at oursay.org/horshamruralcitycouncil/ horsham-talks.

BLOWN AWAY: Anglican Parish of Warracknabeal reverend James Wood is ‘extremely’ thankful for donations he has received as part of his ride challenge.

Reverend’s race to the finish A Warracknabeal man is more than halfway to his target of riding his bicycle 5000 kilometres in 365 days to raise money for a community project. Anglican Parish of Warracknabeal reverend James Wood hopes to raise $25,000 as part of his ‘Rev’s Revolution’ challenge. All money raised will go towards building a ‘Boys’ Shed’ – a purpose-built shed where boys have the opportunity to ‘grow into strong, thoughtful and self-confident young men’ while mastering woodwork. Mr Wood started the project more than two years ago from his garage. He reached a 3000-kilometre milestone earlier in February and now has his sights set on August 1 as a date to reach his final target. “It’s all downhill from here, or at least that’s what they are telling me,” he said. “So far I have been blown away by the gener-

osity and encouragement from the wider community for the shed project. “We have raised more than $14,000 to date and I’m looking to find another $11,000 to make this dream a reality.” Mr Wood said he was averaging about 110 kilometres each week. “There are no shortcuts. It has been quite a physical challenge, not only for my body, but definitely for the mind,” he said. Mr Wood said the shed was part of the church’s five-year Project Regenerate plan to ‘renew people, revive projects and restore place’. People can follow Rev’s Revolution on Instagram, ‘revsrevolution2020’ or watch YouTube videos at youtu.be/P5hJnQ-ZQKc. People can email Mr Wood at warrackanglican @gmail.com or call 0438 233 630 to make a donation.

Ararat dance celebration

rarat Eisteddfod committee will host an extra competition in 2021, designed to restore positivity to the region’s dance community while boosting the city’s economy.

Committee secretary Chris Harris said the COVID-19 pandemic had hit the arts industry hard, making it ‘the first to shut down and the last to reopen’. She said while some arts events were returning, restrictions were ‘immense and ever-changing’. “In these uncertain times, the Ararat Eisteddfod team is committed more than ever to providing a safe and inclusive event for both local dancers and those who join us from across the region,” she said. “We want to ensure our loyal community of dance lovers can connect, share great experiences and celebrate the return of dance, in a COVID-safe manner. “We also want major community events that have a broad socio-economic benefit for local communities and regions to continue.” Mrs Harris said Ararat district could not afford to allow the pandemic to have long-term crippling effects on community celebrations. “Community events such as the annual Ararat Eisteddfod are as much about community wellbeing as they are about generating trade for local businesses,” she said. “We must all work together to prevent events from cancelling in 2021, by considering our own personal contribution to events in our region.”

STAGE READY: From left, Ararat’s Ebony Davidson, Ellouise McAuliffe and Indi O’Callaghan compete at Ararat Eisteddfod in 2019. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

The committee’s ‘early’ competition will be in the first term of the April school holidays, with dates to be confirmed. Entries and audience numbers will be limited and the competition will be restricted to solos, duos and trios. “We will still have our annual Ararat Eisteddfod beginning Saturday, September 18, and hope at this stage to be able to offer a full complement of sections – albeit somewhat modified as well,” Mrs Harris said. She said both events would be run in line with COVID-safe guidelines. “Will it be more work?” she asked. “Yes, most definitely, but we all need to consider what we can do, not what we cannot. We cannot

simply give up. There are some things that won’t be able to continue as they did before, but others that will be able to resume with some tweaking and that is what we should all be exploring.” Mrs Harris urged people to consider their personal contribution to community events and put up their hand to volunteer. She said she hoped to rally enough volunteers to cover all positions without putting extra burden on regular contributors. “We are appealing to every family who is involved with dance in Ararat to commit to volunteering,” she said. Mrs Harris said the committee would not call on businesses and individuals for financial support to run the event, given the tough economic climate.

“We believe they are just regaining their feet after a difficult year, too,” she said. “We hope to cover the financials of this competition ourselves. We might run at a small loss but can absorb this for a one-off situation due to having successful eisteddfods in past years. “This is our way of saying thank you to the many local businesses who support us year after year.” Mrs Harris encouraged people to follow Ararat Eisteddfod on Facebook for announcements about event dates, competition rules and entries, which open today. People who would like to volunteer to help with the event can email ararateisteddfod@live.com. au or message the Facebook page.

Minister launch at St Arnaud Victorian Regional Development Minister MaryAnne Thomas has used a visit to St Arnaud to launch the next round of a Regional Jobs Fund. Ms Thomas announced updated guidelines for the fund, designed to provide more money for businesses to help country towns ‘become even better places to live work and invest’. She was in St Arnaud for hay-processing and export company Gilmac’s official opening of its sixth site in Australia. The first round of the jobs fund helped with construction of the facility, allowing the company to create 17 full-time-equivalent jobs in St Arnaud. Gilmac produces a quarter of Australia’s hay and straw exports. The new site at St Arnaud will enable the processing and exporting of hay grown within a 100-kilometre radius of the town. It might also lead to reduced transport costs, while potentially creating new supply opportunity for other district farmers. When running at full capacity, the facility will be able to press up to 80,000 tonnes of hay a year and generate exports sales into Asian markets. “Projects like Gilmac’s facilities at St Arnaud show what is possible when we support businesses to invest in local communities,” Ms Thomas said. “This facility will make a real difference in St Arnaud, with more jobs for locals and a significant investment in the town. I look forward to seeing how this new round helps even more country towns across Victoria.” Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford: “The grants from this program go a long way in encouraging local businesses to grow and new ones to set up shop in our country towns – making them even better places to live and work.” The new round of the Regional Jobs Fund will be open throughout the year to companies keen to grow operations. Information and guidelines for the Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Fund are available online at rdv. vic.gov.au.

Put to work

ord has added yet another special edition to its bulging Ranger ute line-up, this time at the lower end of the range.

The XL Tradie double cab 4x4 carries driveaway pricing of $47,990, despite its $52,190 recommended retail price. Living up to its nameplate, the XL Tradie is aimed at Ranger customers planning to use their vehicle as the workhorse it ultimately is, sporting a range of tradie-minded upgrades over the base XL. A genuine Ford Black nudge bar,

Lumen 20.5-inch slimline LED light bar, black 16-inch alloy wheels, black side steps, bedliner and tow bar are all included in the price, saving customers from having to manually specify each item individually on an XL. Despite the thousands of dollars of upgrades, the Tradie’s recommended retail price is only $1000 more than that of a regular XL, while its driveaway ticket undercuts the $48,690 retail price of a base model XL double cab 2.2 automatic by $700. Asked about the strategy behind the pricing, Ford Australia communications director Matt Moran said the

special edition was about offering ‘small business customers and tradies the chance to upgrade their truck to one that’s kitted out with all the gear they need’. “We’re focused on offering special editions that reflect significant value at every series, from the fully equipped, adventure-ready Ranger Wildtrak X to Ranger Tradie, based on the workhorse XL series, meaning there’s something for all customers from a value and feature perspective,” he said. Away from the added exterior accessories, the Tradie also adds an 8.0-

inch Sync 3 infotainment screen with smartphone mirroring from higher up in the range, as well as the FordPass Connect modem. Under the bonnet resides the familiar 147kW-470Nm turbocharged 3.2-litre five-cylinder diesel mill as found in most other Ranger 4x4s, paired exclusively here with a six-speed automatic transmission. ‘Arctic White’ and ‘True Red’ make up the core colour palette, however, prestige paint is available for an extra $650 and includes ‘Meteor Grey’, ‘Aluminium Silver’, ‘Blue Lightning’ or ‘Shadow Black’.

All Ranger 4x4s, including the Tradie, come as standard with autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection, emergency brake assist, hill descent control, lane keep assist, rear parking sensors, automatic high beam, stability and traction control, roll over mitigation, traffic sign recognition and trailer sway control. Ford Australia sold 2802 Ranger 4x4s last month, accounting for 21.1 percent of the 4x4 pick-up market behind its arch-rival the Toyota HiLux with 3090 units. – Callum Hunter

Ioniq 5 marks start of EV onslaught

yundai Motor Company as ripped the covers off its hotly anticipated new Ioniq 5 electric SUV, the first model to emerge from its dedicated new electricvehicle sub-brand.

Brandishing almost all of the funky styling cues as seen on the concept vehicle, the Ioniq 5 resembles nothing in the current HMC or wider Hyundai Motor Group portfolio, with a surprisingly boxy and angular design for an EV, putting us in mind of the old Lancia Delta Integrale. Stretched over a 3000mm wheelbase, the boxy Ioniq 5 measures 4635mm long, 1890mm wide and 1605mm tall with boot space rated at 531 litres with the rear seats in place, a figure which expands to 1591L when folded flat. The front end is dominated by the inherent lack of any grilles-intakes save for the imitation one backing and linking the quad-LED headlights, which is actually solid and blanked off under closer inspection. A contrasting silver bumper and trim insert adds some extra detail, as do the pair of sharp contour lines riding up from the outer edges of the bumper to the headlights, complemented by a similar set of lines above the bonnet line. It is from the side where the strongest correlations between the 5 and Delta can be seen, with the former

FAST CHARGE: Hooking the 5 up to a 350kW fast charger will charge the battery from 10 to 80 percent in a claimed 18 minutes, while five minutes of charge can reportedly add 100km of range.

sporting similar chunky front wings, a thin A-pillar, B-pillar and roofline, chunky and sloping C-pillar as well as busy alloy wheels, sloping tailgate with low-set tail-lights and integrated roof spoiler. While the Australian range and specifications are yet to be finalised, four versions will be offered globally, consisting of two ‘long range’ and two ‘standard range’ variants, each with the option of all or rear-wheel drive. Starting at the bottom of the range, the standard range variants will be powered by a 58kWh lithium-ion battery, however their effective range is

yet to be confirmed – so far only the range for the RWD long range version has been revealed, at 470-480km. In standard range RWD guise, the 5’s single rear axle-mounted electric motor develops 125kW-350Nm, enough to propel it from 0-100kmh in 8.5 seconds with all versions sharing the same 185kmh top speed. The AWD version ups the ante significantly both in terms of power and performance with its twin motor developing 173kW-605Nm, slashing the 0-100kmh time to 6.1 seconds. Compared with their respective standard range counterparts, the long

range variants offer significantly more power and performance – as well as range – courtesy of their considerably bigger batteries. For the RWD, the extra juice translates to 160kW-350Nm and a 0-100kmh time of 7.4 seconds, while the AWD proves the gruntiest of the lot with 225kW-605Nm on tap and a sprint time of just 5.2s. When the batteries become depleted, HMC says the batteries can support both 400V and 800V charging infrastructures without the need for adaptors. In the event of a power outage or in the absence of a reliable power

source, the system can also supply up to 3.6kW of power through the integrated Vehicle-to-Loa, V2L, function. Much like the exterior design, the interior of the 5 follows a boxy and straight line-based theme with the star attraction being the floating dashboard. The dash features a MercedesBenz style dual-screen layout for the driver’s display and infotainment system, the latter of which is perched on top of the classic HMC system shortcut buttons and climate controls. Save for the aforementioned screens, standard equipment highlights on the 5 include Bluelink connected car services, dynamic voice recognition, sustainably sourced interior trim and upholstery and an augmented reality head-up display – market-specific details will be revealed closer to launch. The standard safety and driver assistance systems, however, have been detailed in full and fittingly for a modern vehicle, there are plenty. Forward collision-avoidance assist, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist, safe exit assist, intelligent speed limit assist, driver attention warning, high beam assist, a surround-view monitor, rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist, parking collision-avoidance assist, highway driving assist two and remote smart parking assist are all included as standard along with the usual array of airbags and cameras. – Callum Hunter

New Subaru models to help rebound

he year of the pandemic has proven to be an unexpected mix of bad and good news, marked in the automotive industry by strong new and used-car demand but tempered by unexpected side issues.

FRESH BLOOD: Models like the new-generation Outback are expected to give Subaru sales a welcome boost. was also attributed to a quiet product cycle with only the hybrid Forester and XV the sole new additions during the year and only then launched very early in 2020. “The great news is that we are heading into an exciting phase for new products that started with the Outback and will then extend to BRZ later this year and then to the WRX,” he said. “Then we’ll have a new WRX STI a little further down the track. All these models have a distinct fan base and certainly the performance models have a halo effect, which works fan-

tastically in creating buzz and attracting new buyers to the brand.” Production gremlins hit Subaru hard in 2020. Brand sales fell 21.3 percent compared with 2019, with the slide exacerbated by the run-out – and subsequent lack of stock – with the Outback and the demise of the Liberty. There were falls even in its best-selling model, the Forester, down 18.5 percent, as COVID and parts issues bit. The year took its toll on most Subaru models but clarity came by analysing the December 2020 figures, showing

Forester was up 27 percent on the same month in 2019. In addition, Liberty’s run-out returned to focus in December with a 143.1 percent rocket in sales compared with December 2019, and healthier XV sales, up 38 percent December to December, that showed Subaru production getting back on track and buyers ready to purchase. “We announced Liberty’s farewell last year and that was largely influenced by customer preferences and the well-documented decline in the medium car segment,” Mr Read said.

The market in 2020 was down 13.7 percent on 2019, but that retraction fails to identify a comparatively lowstress sales environment where many dealers simply could not find stock to satisfy buyer demand. On the other hand, dealers were frustrated by various production hiccups in the building of cars, delays in shipping and further setbacks caused by the pandemic that slowed the logistics chain right up to the pre-delivery stage. Subaru, a car-maker with an unusually loyal customer base, also did not have things its own way. Like others, production was hit by COVID-19 and the shockwaves continue with the global shortage of electronic chips for the onboard vehicle computers charged with running the safety and infotainment components. Subaru Australia general manager Blair Read said production lost early in the year because of COVID was largely recovered by the end of 2020, with the brand rebounding to eighth overall in January this year. He said the depressed sales period

“We don’t anticipate any other departures from the range. Secondgeneration BRZ is already creating excitement and we’re more than satisfied with the performance of first generation over time. “Let’s not forget the huge success we had in initially selling BRZ online only, which then spurred physical sales in dealerships to levels that even took us by surprise, over a longer period than anticipated.” BRZ sales were up two percent for the year and 47.2 percent for December, with 53 sold that month and 407 for the year. The performance WRX model was also up by 26.1 percent on 2019, with 1399 sales for 2020, though December’s 109 units flagged to 81 in January 2021 as the WRX begins its run-out with a replacement due later this year or early 2022. Mr Read said Levorg, which slipped to just six sales in January 2021, was ‘very much a niche product for us’. “It is in run-out mode and we have plans for it to morph into something a little different and perhaps a bit more adrenaline pumping either later this year or early 2022,” he said. “I know that probably begs more questions than it answers, but let’s just say it’ll be well worth the wait.” – Neil Dowling

Horsham Neighbourhood House

Manager The Organisation

The Horsham Neighbourhood House is a not for profit organisation whose vision is to connect with and respond to the changing needs of our increasingly diverse community. By offering accessible and affordable programs and services we aim to create opportunities for learning, personal development, social interaction and support within our community for adults, youth and children.

The Role

In this part time role (30 hours per week) you will have the opportunity to relaunch and invigorate the Neighbourhood House with the support of the Committee of Management. You will be responsible for the leadership, operations, financial and administration management of all programs and services. You will manage the lifecycle of creation, implementation and review of new opportunities for the House including consulting with the local community to develop solutions to address social issues of concern and provide inclusive pathways for further education and employment for those who traditionally excluded from these opportunities.

Skills and Experience

Watch our tongue – James 3:1-12 I am sure we all said it as kids “sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me”. No doubt sticks and stones can hurt but names, what we say to others, can have longer consequences. Physical wounds can heal but emotional scars made by the language we use towards others can last a lot longer. As a parent of three and a former primary school teacher it highlighted to me how important our words are, the language we us as there is power in the words that we use. The book of James uses a great analogy. It says that while ships are huge and can have huge sails they are directed by one small part, the rudder (3:4). Our tongue is just the same, it can direct us but the question is in what direction, path, journey do we want to go? We can encourage someone one minute with what we say then tear them down in the very next breath. As a Christian the greatest word is Jesus because he saves but time and time and time again the Bible tells us the value of words, their benefits and dangers. A lot of this comes from Proverbs with what I want to finish off with “Gentle words bring life but a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit”, (15:4).

Motocross action resumes at Dooen R

oaring engines, spinning wheels and airborne acrobatics will return to Dooen, north of Horsham, this weekend as competitive motocross action resumes in the Wimmera. Horsham Motorcycle Club will present a big Labour Day weekend of racing and organisers expect about 300 competitors to take part. MX Amateurs on Saturday will headline action at Dooen Recreation

Reserve and racing in a broad range of events and categories will continue on Sunday. One of the highlight amateur events on Saturday will be the Bronte Holland Memorial 125 Cup, while Sunday racing will include a unique MX Amateur teams event, an all-female Maggie Stacey Memorial and a pre-20 motorcycle event. The teams event, a replica of an MX Nations concept, is the only one of its kind in Australia and includes teams

of three different grades of riders and machines. The Maggie Stacey Memorial, in honour of the promising Horsham club member who died in 2019, is open to clubman riders of all classes. The four-lap pre-20 bikes, with riders on motorcycles more than 20 years old, and again on all sizes, will make its debut in Horsham. The weekend will culminate with pit-bike racing under lights where senior riders test their skills on 110cc

Off-road Rainbow racing Off-road racing returns to Rainbow this weekend with the third Rainbow Rises 240 event. Competitors from across Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales will take part in the award-winning event, which includes a variety of classes. These include the Pro Buggy, Prolite, Super 1650 Buggy, Sportsman Buggy, Extreme 2WD, SXS Turbo, Extreme 4WD, Production 4WD and Sportslite. Food and drinks will available during the weekend and all money raised from sales will go back into the event and Rainbow Desert Enduro. Racing will be on an eight-kilometre prologue track at the GrainCorp site on Bow Hill west of Rainbow, starting

machines. Horsham club spokesman Kenny Watts said expectations were high for the sport’s return in the region after a lengthy absence caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. “The riders all seem keen and we have good sponsors such as ACE Radio behind us,” he said. “We’re continuing a tradition of offering free entry for spectators, so bring your deckchair along on Sunday night and settle in. It should be good.” Mr Watts assured fans the club

would follow all COVID-19 guidelines such as QR codes and social-distancing requirements. “The hope is that our MX Amateurs represent a return to normal event scheduling, but of course we’ll follow announcements closely,” he said. The big Labour Day weekend of racing at Dooen represents a lead-in event to the Horsham club hosting the opening round of Victorian motocross titles in April. SKILLS SESSION: Young Wimmera residents can learn more about hockey at a come-and-try day at Horsham College oval next week. Horsham Hockey Club will host the session, on March 10, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm. The come-andtry day is designed to boost interest in playing hockey in the region and follows clinics at Horsham schools this week. Pictured is Horsham Hockey Club member Sue Roberts showcasing techniques to Horsham Primary School students, from left, Holly Potter, Tom Klitscher and Ollie Watson on Monday. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

about 11.30am on Saturday with drivers completing nine laps of the track in sections one and two. Racing on Sunday starts at 8am and will involve 19 laps completed by each of the groups of vehicles. The event has attracted a field of 50 vehicles and will be the first round of the 2021 Victorian Off Road Championship, round one of the 2021 Victorian Off Road Club Shield and round one of the 2021 VORRA Club Championship. Organisers have registered the event as ‘COVID safe’ with the State Government and all spectators must sign in and be issued with a wristband to confirm check-in and follow strict guidelines.

SUSPENSEFUL FINISH: Ararat Rats Swimming Club has taken out the overall top spot in a Wimmera District 12 competition following the championship round at St Arnaud on Saturday. The Rats firmed their place, rivalling Horsham Sharks who came in a close second and St Arnaud Piranhas Swimming Club in third. Sharks president Deirdre Harrington said many race results were almost ‘too close to call’, in a suspenseful finish for the regional competition. “We had some nail-biting results where it was hundredths of a second between first and second place winners,” she said. Ms Harrington said about 10 swimmers from the region were now looking to a country juniors competition at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre on March 13 and 14. Age champions, pictured from left, were Emily Perazic, Jordan Start, Jesse Amos, Ivana Donnan, Tom Urquhart, Jorja Clode, Caleb Townsend, Heidi Start, Henry Walsgott, Eljah Keam and Lewis Lowe.

Horsham to compete in this popular event.” The schedules follow the club’s 12th three-ball-stableford Ashes Trophy last month, commemorating the 2009 bushfires. Trish Mills, Pat Brooksby and June Gross won this year’s event on countback from runners-up Noreen Roiter, Dorothy Adamson and Wendy Talbot and thirdplaced Janet Kemp, Joan Williams and Barb Hawkins, who all scored 50 points. The event attract 84 competitors in 28 teams. Michael and June Crabtree hand-crafted the winning trophy from the burnt remains of one of the many trees lost on the fairways.

It was not the finish of a Hunter Cup nor Inter Dominion. But I doubt if any winner at Tabcorp Park Melton has enjoyed a reception to rival that of Team Young’s family and friends on Saturday night as eight-year-old gelding Allawart Bob crossed the line, clear winner of the $10,000 Aldebaran Park Trotters Final. Trained by Laurie Young on the back roads of Murtoa and district, Allawart Bob showed dazzling gate speed in a repeat of his all-the-way heat victory, nine days earlier at Ballarat. Workmates, family and friends made the long haul south to support Laurie, his brother Gary and Allawart Bob’s mission at Melton, hopeful they would knock off the city slickers in the ‘lucky last’. And later in the night as the stars aligned, Allawart Bob, with Aaron Dunn in the spider, notched up his fifth career victory at start 41.

Stawell win

Stawell owner-trainer Ray Harvey is already planning another interstate raid after capturing the $12,000 Gramel Cup with five-year-old gelding The Penny Drops. He is now planning for April 17’s South Australia Trotters

Cup. The Penny Drops is raced by Harvey, his partner Moira Hateley and the Pickering family. Now that ‘Penny’ is back to his best form, he’s certain to add to his record of nine wins, 12 minors and $73,392 in stakes.

Winning form

The Dunn stable has been in a winning vein for some time and its roll continued at Geelong on Friday night when owner-breeder-trainerdriver Aaron Dunn’s filly Mykorona took out the $7000 two-year-old fillies pace. With a brilliant beginning from gate seven to quickly find the pegs, Dunn controlled the tempo throughout the 1609-metre contest. After a leisurely mid-race quarter of 32.8 seconds, Dunn upped the ante and Mykorona responded with a 56.6-second half and cruised to the line, unextended for a soft five-metre victory in 1:57.8. It’s Hot To Trot at Birchip for the Mallee Bull Cup, March 7; Horsham for the Invitation Drivers Championship, March 8, and Charlton cup meeting on March 14. – Tony Logan

Finals series now set T

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

eams are now set for Central Wimmera Tennis Association’s 2020-21 finals series, which will kick off on March 13 following a break for the Labour Day long weekend. Players in the competition’s four grades contested the last round of the home-andaway season on Saturday. While pennant’s top-four sides were set early in the piece, there was still room for movement when second-placed Horsham Lawn met third-placed Kalkee at the city’s lawn courts. The match was a thriller, with the home side edging out the Kees to triumph 7-75 to 5-75, retaining second spot and a finals double chance. Graeme Wood continued on his winning way, claiming all three of his sets including an 8-1 singles win over Grant Schultz. Kirby Knight achieved the same feat for Kalkee, with team-mate Paula Weidermann enjoying a good tussle with opponent Cherie Wood. Wood won two of their three encounters, both on tiebreak. The Kees will need to defeat fourthplaced St Michaels to remain in the finals hunt. The Saints are coming off a 9-89 to 3-51 win over Central Park at home. Peter Hayes, Jess McDonald and Kassie Peachey starred in the victory, with Central Park’s winning rubbers all coming from singles encounters.

DOWN TO THE WIRE: Horsham Lawn’s Ross Janetzki serves during thrilling Saturday pennant action against Kalkee. Janetzki won two of his three rubbers for the day to help his side claim victory and finish the home-and-away season in second spot. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER Blair Penrose and Ross McIntyre got their side on the board, with Drung South’s Logan Casey – playing on a day clearance – getting the better of Ian Nitschke later in the day, 8-7. Casey was available after Homers forfeited against the ladder leader. Drung South will take on Horsham Lawn in the first semi-final on March 13. In A Special, Horsham Lawn Massey held on to fourth spot to secure a finals berth, following a big win over Horsham Lawn Savage, 12-107 to 2-72.

Massey will meet Noradjuha in the semis, with minor premier Natimuk to host Telangatuk East. In A Grade, St Michaels will go headto-head with Drung South and Horsham Lawn will meet Haven. Drung South also finished on top in B Grade and will host St Michaels, with Natimuk meeting Horsham Lawn in a do-or-die encounter. Hopefully spectators will be treated to a highly competitive finals series across all grades.

Ladies lead the way The penultimate round of the Stawell Tennis Club Bendigo Bank Friday Night Competition saw O’Jones Mitre 10’s grand final aspirations close to being snuffed out with a soul-destroying loss to premiership favourite Stawell Toyota. Menawhile, Stawell Goldmine took another big scalp, accounting for second-placed Carey Covers in a thrilling contest. O’Jones Mitre 10 will need a minor miracle if it hopes to play off in the big dance this season. Despite winning the same number of sets as its rivals, some heavy defeats took its toll on the scoreboard for Mitre 10, eventually going down 12-131 to Stawell Toyota, 12-157. The ladies section toiled away valiantly for Mitre 10, with Holly Graveson, Jordan Austin and Jemima Harney all saluting in their three sets, however the men’s division was a one-sided affair, with Stawell Toyota’s Lewis Reading, Henry Clough and Tom Monument dominating to steer their team to victory. Stawell Toyota has one hand on the premiership cup, and it will take a herculean performance from an opposition team to prise it off. Mathematically, Mitre 10 can still make the final, however it will now also be locked in a

dogfight with Stawell Goldmine in the last round for the battle to avoid the wooden spoon. Stawell Goldmine continued its outstanding second half of the season, this time accounting for Carey Covers in a fierce battle. Stawell Goldmine will be ruing a slow start to the year – except for top-placed Stawell Toyota, it has been the competition’s form team. It was the ladies who led the way, with Molly Orr and Elise Monaghan in scintillating touch. Claire won the bragging rights in the Hodgetts’ household over sister Amy, while Jack Hoffman was solid. Theo Browne and Hugh Carey both tried hard to keep Carey Covers within striking distance, however in the end, they fell five games short. The final scoreline read Stawell Goldmine 14-149 to Carey Covers 10-144. Carey Covers faces an uphill battle if it hopes to challenge Stawell Toyota for the title. All teams have this weekend off due to the long weekend, with the last round to take place on Friday, March 12. Ladder: Stawell Toyota 193 points, Carey Covers 149, O’Jones Mitre 10 138, Stawell Goldmine 135. – Joel Freeland

That’s what it means to me W

hen I was a kid, the joy of waking up on a Saturday morning and knowing it was game day – it was such a thrill. You’d get ready, get your netball gear on, you’d go there, you’re with your friends and you’d get out and have some fun. That’s the thrill that I get – and I still get it now, at my age. I’m still playing and I still get excited about game day. Each Saturday I get up, get my bag packed, get in the car and go to the game. I go early in the morning with the kids and go right through to the end of the day.

I’m there with my mates – I love it. It’s a family. It’s a community – and that’s what’s really important. We have such a lot of small communities and this is what keeps them going. This is what they do and what they can get behind. You have your sponsors involved with your clubs and you have all the people – mums and dads who are there supporting their kids, volunteers working in the canteen, on the gate and all of those sorts of things. We rely on that. That’s your community, that’s

your family. And you get to be with your family every week, so it’s wonderful. 2020 was a very unusual year. We didn’t get to play a lot of netball, so we’re looking forward to seeing people, especially kids, back out on the court. We really want to encourage kids to get back, get active, get involved in a club and see what it’s like to be out there and just have fun again. Right, Horsham District Football Netball League netball director Sharon Fedke

Blue Panthers on the prowl R

BY DEAN LAWSON

upanyup-Minyip can control its own finals destiny in Horsham Cricket Association’s A Grade competition on Saturday – by simply winning. But there will be nothing simple for the Blue Panthers in scoring the win, considering they will finish the homeand-away season against premiership favourite Noradjuha-Toolondo. The Dunmunkle outfit is sitting fourth and in a semi-final position, but is on equal points with fifthplaced Jung Tigers, which will be favourites to beat Horsham Saints. Score a win against NoradjuhaToolondo and the Blue Panthers will sneak into the finals regardless of the Tigers-Saints result, courtesy of superior percentage. Third-placed West Wimmera ensured a high level of intrigue would continue to surround the swinging fourth place by scoring a 16-run win over the Panthers last week. The Westerners’ strong top order set the platform for victory with Brad Alexander, 73, Mitch Dahlenburg, 65, Nathan Alexander, 37, and Austin Smith, 22, contributors in setting the home side a 211-run target at Minyip. Rupanyup-Minyip did well in the chase but ran out of overs at 8-194. Mark Mbofana, 49, Bailey Young, 47 not out, Jamie Byrne, 33, and Josh Leith, 21, had valuable time at the wicket, while Nathan Alexander claimed three wickets. Batting form will be critical for the Blue Panthers in shaping up against a Bullants bowling attack that routed Horsham Saints for 46 after the top team clipped 6-192 at Horsham City Oval. Rekindled batting form and a century from Bullants all-rounder Matt

Combe sent an ominous warning through the competition during the game. First-drop Combe hit a 105 from 112 balls in a knock that included 12 fours and a six. Shane Oakley made 38 and Justtin Combe, 28. The Bullants’ primary destroyers with the ball were Jordan McDonald, 4-2, and Heath Lang, 4-17. Only opener Matt Currill, 30, made any significant impact with the bat for the Saints. The Saints can take some solace from the final match of the round knowing they can deny Jung Tigers any finals glory by producing an upset. The Tigers are out of sorts after crumbling twice with the bat to Homers and failing to find any rub of the green in the field. Last week the Tigers, after crashing in a T20 final the week before, struggled to contain Homers and found themselves chasing 200 for victory. Paddy Mills, 63, Chaminda Gamage, 51 not out, Jett Hopper, 33, and Craig Britten, 31, scored freely during the Pigeons knock. Homers then worked their way through the Tigers’ batting list, its spinners putting the brakes on and squeezing the life from their opponents’ chase. Homers are flushed with confidence but on form face a tough opponent in West Wimmera at Horsham Sunnyside this weekend. This week: One-day games, Homers v West Wimmera at Horsham Sunnyside, Horsham Saints v Jung Tigers at Coughlin Park, Horsham; Noradjuha-Toolondo v Rupanyup-Minyip at Horsham City Oval. Last week: West Wimmera 5-210 (B. Alexander 73, M. Dahlenburg 65,

Redbacks in grand final Ararat Redbacks will vie for glory when they contest the 2020-21 Country Basketball League south-west conference grand final on Saturday night. The Redbacks will take on Portland Coasters at Bluewater Leisure Centre, Colac, at 7pm. Ararat enjoyed a stellar shortened homeand-away CBL season, winning all four matches and finishing atop the ladder. The Redbacks qualified for the decider with an impressive 33-point triumph over Warrnambool Seahawks in Ararat at the weekend. The home side amassed triple figures, with Zac Dunmore, 26 points, and Ethan Fiegert, 23, among key contributors in the 105-72 victory. DJ Woods, 15, Will Hynes, 14, and Jaydo Wright, 13, also made double figures, with an additional five team-mates helping the scoreboard tick over. James Mitchell battled hard for the visitors, finishing with a game-high 28 points. Portland defeated Colac Kookas by 14 points, 88-74, to book its spot in the big dance. Ararat and Portland have met once this season, in round one, with the Redbacks saluting by 12 points. It was the Coasters’ only loss of the season and they will be out to turn the tables at Colac.

Combine, Hawks in best-of-three G

BY ONE SHORT

rampians Cricket Association attention will turn to an A Grade grand-final series between Buangor-Tatyoon and SwiftsGreat Western in a best-of-three 40-over one-day games across the long weekend.

The first match is at Tatyoon, the second at Stawell’s Central Park and the third, if required, back at Tatyoon. It should be an intriguing series. Can the Buangor-Tatyoon Hawks use their pitch to their advantage to get at the Combine’s middle and lower order, which has not been asked to bat on

many occasions? Or will it work to their disadvantage when exposed to the Combine’s battery of quicks? The playing of a three-match final series will allow more than 11 players in each side to participate. This means that players have the chance to perform, even if they have had a poor match previously. The record shows that Swifts-Great Western has triumphed in every match this season, including an infamous Gunstone Cup forfeit. The Hawks need to have their bowlers in Michael Harricks, Jarrod Blandford, James Phillips and Callum Baker fired up to attack the Combine’s bat-

ting depth. Cocks, the Eckels Tom and Jesse, Ricky Peters, Matt Heffer and Jacob Seeary are all capable of scoring heavily. Hawks batsmen Blandford, Harricks, Shaun Allen and Tyler Cronin will be the target for Combine bowlers Jay Moody, Matt Heffer, Jamie Bach and Chad Gilmour, all of whom have recorded winning figures at some stage of the season. Because the Combine has many shift workers in its ranks, much will depend on availability. Last week’s A Grade semi-final results had a touch of ‘Ground Hog Day’ as results went the same way

as a previous round of matches. The opponents were the same, the grounds the same, even the umpires were the same; and so were the results. Although Pomonal and Youth Club scored a few more runs this time, they were still comprehensively on the wrong end of results. Pomonal scratched up 104 all out and Buangor-Tatyoon replied with 5-108 with 12 overs to spare. The best performance in this match went to Harricks, who took 5-17 as well as making an unbeaten 18. Another notable performer was Blandford with 46 and 3-23. At Central Park, Youth Club batted

first and reached 75, the only notable contributor Koby Stewart with 22. Swifts-Great Western reached the target in just 12 overs without the loss of a wicket. The best of the Combine bowlers was Jay Moody with 4-21. Unbeaten Combine batsmen were Sam Cocks, 48, and Seeary, 24. It was interesting to note that neither of the Eckel brothers played in the semi-final. A B Grade final will be on Saturday as a one-off match between RhymneyMoyston and Chalambar at Moyston.

Vettos impresses in return

‘All-star’ selection

Four Wimmera Girls Cricket Association players will represent Western Waves in an under-14 ‘all-star’ match at Coughlin Park, Horsham. Adele Weidemann and Lucy Avery, Horsham Sixers, Ava Clark, Wimmera Roos, and Lilly Reading, Stawell Strikers, won selection to the representative side based on performances in the Western Victoria Girls Cup and coaches’ feedback. The Waves will take on Mallee Murray on March 14. Wimmera Mallee Cricket Association’s Jimmy Duxson, Hunter Connolly, Jett Adams and Noah Berry represented the Waves in an under-15 boys ‘all-star’ match at Horsham City Oval on Sunday. Horsham association’s Connor Weidemann captained the winning side. The Waves defeated Murray Mallee, with Weidemann contributing 37 runs towards the side’s 5-263 total. In reply, Mallee Murray made 10-42, with Connolly claiming three wickets, Adams two and Weidemann one. The all-star series aims to provide further opportunities for talented players and will act as a selection ALL STARS: From left, Adele Weidemann, Ava Clark, Lilly Reading, tool for the Waves’ 2021-22 Youth and Lucy Avery will represent Western Waves in Horsham on March 14.

FULL VOLLEY It was a combination of an old favourite and a new signing that captured the attention of Volleyball Horsham’s A Grade competition in round one. Dimitrios Vettos picked up where he left off with a best-on-court performance for his Phantoms team, but former Kiwi Ben Wilde had all tongues wagging with his dominant first-up display. Vettos was as solid as a rock, while Wilde showed great skill and power in Phantoms’ 4-0 rout of Volleyroos. The vanquished suffered a double blow when libero Becky Schmidt was escorted off the court with what looked like a calf injury, only to find out later that evening that she had snapped her Achilles tendon. In other matches, Heidelberg had to work hard to keep Von Steiger Bloods at bay, while Shados Inala, after an inauspicious start, eventually overcame a determined Pegasus. These results have set up some intriguing contests in round two, with the two first-round losers in Pegasus and Volleyroos going head to head. They will be followed at the end of the night with the two first-round winners in Heidelberg and Shados Inala. Match of the round in B Grade will involve two old favorites in Heidelberg Masters and Waterhammers squaring off against each other. Both teams recorded first-up 4-0 wins, with evergreens Chris Baker and Andrew Wundke to the fore for Water-

hammers, while Vaughn Maroske and Richard Nagorcka contributed significantly for the Masters. It all points to another fun night of volleyball for all participants. These games will serve a dual purpose because they put the final touches on preparation of Volleyball Horsham members playing for Phantoms in Warrnambool this long weekend. For the men, Jack Hannan, Cam Robinson and Matthew and Nathan Berry will play key roles for the Phantoms Honors men’s team, and John Kearns will play in the division-three team. Kara Johnson, Tamikah Dockrill and Cleo Baker will don the black and purple uniform for the women’s Honors team, with Emily Hannan and Laelah Robertson suiting up for the division-one team. In Baker’s case, she will be making her debut at the top level of competition after serving her apprenticeship in the lower divisions during the past three years. Baker has been a great example of continuous development and taking her opportunities when they arise and will slot into the new-look women’s team without any worries. The weekend will give coaches the opportunity to have a look at their players under match conditions in preparation for the start of state league on April 10. – David Berry

Preusker upset a ‘surreal’ win

tunned racing enthusiasts were immediately poring through the history books at the weekend after Horsham-trained long shot Lunar Fox won the $1-million Group One Australian Guineas at Flemington.

Lunar Fox, trained by Paul Preusker, won the Guineas at 300-1 as well as confirmation from insiders that it was the longest-priced Group One winner in Australian racing history. The previous longest shot was 250-1 Abaridy, which won the Caulfield Guineas in 1986. Australian Group One races are the premier races with the highest prizemoney on offer in thoroughbred racing in the country. The Australian Guineas is the premier

mile event for three-year-old gallopers during the autumn racing carnival. The victory, Lunar Fox’s first since he won the Group Two VRC Sires’ Produce Stakes at Flemington last March, provided Preusker with his first Group One winner. The result took everyone by surprise and Preusker was not even at the track, having left duties to his partner and former jockey Holly McKechnie. McKechnie told the media gallery the horse was ‘always trying’ but also couldn’t believe the result. “It’s a bit surreal at this stage,” she said. McKechnie said placing blinkers on Lunar Fox for the first time seemed to work. The result also gave jockey Michael Dee his fifth Group One victory.

Butler set to lead league board Pauline Butler of Horsham will lead a Wimmera Football Netball League management board in 2021. Angela Ballinger, also of Horsham, is deputy chair and will also have treasury and marketing responsibilities. Others on the board are Bruce Petering, football director; Neil King, secretary, football umpires, events and sponsorship; Toni Stewart, netball director; Shavaughn Neale,

netball umpires; and Wes Illig, junior development. The management board has two vacancies it is keen to fill. Late last year Wimmera Football League and Wimmera Netball Association members voted to merge the two organisations to form Wimmera Football Netball League. Appointments came after an extensive search for board members.

ALL SMILES: Horsham’s Rory HallinanJohns proudly displays gold and silver medals he won at state rowing competitions at the weekend. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Sights set high after state win Horsham’s Rory Hallinan-Johns enjoyed a sensational weekend on the water, claiming gold and silver medals at Rowing Victoria championships. Rory, 13, claimed runner-up honours in the year-nine single scull event at junior boys state championships at Lake Wendouree on Saturday. Representing Horsham’s Holy Trinity Lutheran College, Rory won his first heat with ease, defeating year-nine students from schools including Caulfield Grammar, Gippsland Grammar and Ballarat Grammar. Rory led throughout his

1000-metre final but was ‘pipped at the post’ by Gippsland Grammar’s Lagan Joshi. He said although he was disappointed, it provided further drive for Sunday’s Rowing Victoria State Championship Regatta. Rory represented Dimboola Rowing Club on the national course at Nagambie, triumphing in the male under-15 single scull. In winning, he managed to turn the tables on the previous day’s result, getting the better of the opponent who claimed gold on Lake Wendouree. Rory said it felt great to win the

race while beating his personal best time by 11 seconds. “My start wasn’t the best, but after that I felt pretty confident,” he said. “I had good rhythm and I just pushed it all the way out. I was pretty happy.” Rory said he was a keen sportsman who enjoyed playing football and loved cycling. He said competing at a national rowing competition was on the cards and long-term, he would love to compete at Olympic level. “That’s the dream,” he said. – Sarah Matthews

Greyhound cup part of history H

orsham greyhound racing officials have used the build-up to Saturday’s 2021 CHS Group Horsham Cup to delve into the sport’s rich Wimmera history.

Horsham Greyhound Racing Club has operated at Horsham Showground since 1973, but the Wimmera’s association with the breed started almost a century earlier with coursing a popular pastime. Live coursing started in Horsham in the early 1900s off Plumpton Road and in 1920 the list of approved coursing clubs in Victoria also included Beulah, Brim, Charlton, Hopetoun, Kalkee, Murtoa, Nhill, Sheep Hills and Stawell. Such was the strength of the sport in the region that David Lawson-owned British Foot won the 1920 Waterloo Cup, the greyhound equivalent at the time of the Melbourne Cup. British Foot ran second the following year and then went to stud for 10 pounds per service. Lawson, a prominent Kalkee farmer, had earlier entered British Foot in match or challenge races in Horsham, and one had a buy-in of 100 pounds, a figure representing a fortune at the time. His dog won. Horsham club manager Justin Brilliant said cup events were prominent sporting fixtures across the region and the 1913 Sheep Hills Cup trophy would be on display during this weekend’s Horsham Cup carnival. “Horsham Greyhound Racing Club formed in 1971 and a public meeting in Horsham Town Hall attracted a large crowd of vocal greyhound

supporters,” he said. “Further meetings followed and former Member for Lowan Jim McCabe became the club’s first president.” Mr Brilliant said the club had since operated strongly from the showground precinct. “The club has seen some of the best greyhounds in the country race over recent years including former track record holder Tempix, superstar Brett Lee and current Horsham Cup holder Tiggerlong Tonk,” he said. He said the club was gearing up for the Horsham Cup despite COVID-19 restrictions hampering efforts to host a big crowd. “This year’s cup will no doubt be a great spectacle with arguably the fastest greyhound in the country lining up in Shima Shine for Andrea Dailly,” he said. “Having blown his opposition, and the old track record, away in Friday’s heats he seems primed to take out the $47,000 winner’s purse. “Dailly, Australia’s leading trainer, will line up four of the eight finalists and could easily fill the trifecta on the night.” Mr Brilliant said the night would also honour club stalwart Sylvia Penny, who devoted much of her adult life to the club before her death in 2011. He said due to COVID-19, this year’s event was a ticketed-only affair with allocated seating and areas. People wanting to attend should book online at trybooking.com or ring the club on 5382 4329.
