Power upgrade push T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he leader of a strong push to capitalise on renewableenergy development in western Victoria believes the industry has potential to pump billions of investment dollars into the Wimmera.

But Grampians New Energy Task Force chairman Stuart Benjamin said the opportunity would only arise with a major upgrade of electrical infrastructure across the region.

Mr Benjamin, in echoing concerns from Wimmera Development Asso-

ciation, stressed that western Victorian transmission lines had all but run out of capacity for new major renewableenergy projects such as wind or solar farms.

“If we could get the extra capacity needed into the Wimmera it would equate to $4-billion to $5-billion worth of projects in the region,” he said.

“At the moment that can’t happen.”

Mr Benjamin, also Regional Development Australia’s Grampians chairman, added that a third electrical interconnector between Victoria and South Australia was essential to un-

locking renewable-energy production in Victoria.

He said he had taken a submission to the Australian Market Energy Operator, AMEO, which is reviewing the national grid, and discussed the issue in depth with Federal Environment and Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg during a visit to Canberra.

“I’ve been lobbying heavily and the hope is that by the end of the year there will be confirmation of a need for a third interconnector, which would be a game changer,” he said.

Wimmera Development Association made a similar plea early last year,

prompting a response from Member for Mallee and Standing Committee on Environment and Energy chairman Andrew Broad that the potential cost of an extra interconnector, at ‘a billion dollars’, might be prohibitive.

RDA Grampians, representing a western Victorian economic region stretching from Moorabool to the South Australian border and into the southern Mallee, established the Grampians New Energy Task Force about two months ago.

Its formation was based on an understanding that much of western Victoria was missing out on jobs and in-

vestment, based on renewable-energy limitations, and a need for a collective effort to work through issues with government.

Mr Benjamin said the taskforce had backing or input from regional development organisations, local government councils, Regional Development Victoria and Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning.

He said the request was for AMEO to lead an upgrade of western Victorian power infrastructure to allow the region to capitalise on renewablepower-generation opportunities.

Self-sufficent energy security Couple tap into the power of the sun

Being without power is never good at the best of times, but trying to endure it during the heat of a Wimmera summer can be simply hard to bear.

environmental case that supported his decision.

“We won’t be able to use fossil fuels forever and tapping into renewable energy is something everyone is going to have to do in the long run,” he said.

But these days heavy machinery operator Tony Baker, 39, and wife Amanda don’t notice any power outages at their house at Haven on the outskirts of Horsham.

“You know, I even look forward to the day when I will be able to plug an electric car into the system. Power from the sun to provide energy for your house and also your car – now that’s self-sufficiency.

Their air-conditioner, like every other electrical appliance in the house, simply keeps going – all thanks to an all but self-sufficient solar-battery energy system.

Mr Baker, frustrated with regular power outages due to location technicalities, has long been keen to explore the idea of energy self-sufficiency.

Now, with the help of Wade’s in Horsham and a Redback Technologies renewable energy and battery system, he no longer has concerns about power availability.

“During the Black Saturday fire our power was out for nearly three days. I was prepared and had a generator.

“But a generator is noisy and you have to keep filling it with fuel,” he said.

“Now I don’t even know if we’ve had a power outage in our area. Everything just keeps going.”

Tony called on Wade’s to come up with an answer to his power problems and after six months of installation he could not be happier with results.

“I always wanted to capture solar en-

“I also like the idea that what I’ve installed is an Australian-engineered system. I’m always keen to support Australian businesses.”

Tony and Amanda Baker are very happy with their renewable energy and battery system.

ergy but I was in a situation where I couldn’t export it so I went down the battery-storage avenue,” he said.

“The Redback system works a charm and while I’m still on grid and have it as a back-up system, I’m thinking about eventually going fully off the grid.

“The only power bill I get at the moment is a grid service charge and my last bill was $36.”

Mr Baker said he was also impressed

Redback Technologies, established in 2015, is based in Queensland and supported by Microsoft Innovation Centre.

It has also established alliances with partners including Sonepar and The University of Queensland. by the simplicity of system installation and operation.

save in the power we don’t actually have to buy.

“Much of it is one compact unit. I have five and a half kilowatts of solar panels and 9.6kW of battery storage and it won’t take much to increase storage capacity to eventually go off the grid altogether,” he said.

“And what’s great about it is that it is all very easy to operate and understand how it’s working. You can bring everything up on an app on your mobile phone.”

“With only two of us we’re using on average about 1kW a day – that’s 17 cents worth of power. The payback is what we

Mr Baker said the prime motivation to make the financial commitment to install the solar-battery system was self-sufficiency and convenience.

But he added there was also a major

Mr Baker said dealing with Wade’s Solar in Horsham made the project relatively seamless.

“I would certainly recommend them, they were very easy to deal with, easy to talk to and they obviously knew what they were doing,” he said.

He summed up his thoughts with: “Of course it’s a significant investment, but it is an investment for the future and will ultimately pay for itself.”

Shire benefits from big Easter events M

BY DEAN LAWSON

unicipal leaders have estimated that major activities and events in Stawell during the Easter weekend injected between $8-million and $10-million into Northern Grampians Shire’s economy.

They are also confident that the figure might even double when combined with Grampians Grape Escape festival at Halls Gap on May 5 and 6.

Northern Grampians Shire chief executive Michael Bailey said an influx of about 10,000 people in Stawell and another expected 5000 in Halls Gap had an enormous economic impact on the region.

“From a business perspective, the success of events at this time of year, during the Easter period, provides a

guaranteed income year in, year out,” he said.

“Importantly, they also provide a snapshot of what the shire has to offer and act as a lure to encourage people to return at other times of the year.”

Shire Easter activities started with a Great Western Rodeo on Friday and continued in Stawell on Saturday with a Main Street Sensation festival and Stawell Gift action. There was also an Easter Street Party.

Sunday featured a Stuart McGregor Stawell Gold Cup race meeting and Monday directed attention to Stawell Gift semi-finals and finals.

“There were big crowds at all of them. The street party, in only its second year, was chockers and has given us confidence to lock it in as an annual event,” Mr Bailey said.

“The weather plays a major role in how many people the events attract and this year it was superb. And let’s be honest, the Stawell Gift continues to put Stawell and the broader shire and Wimmera on the international map.

“We can’t stress enough the importance of all these events to the financial, cultural and social wellbeing of our shire. It is critical that the community continues its long-term commitment to and support of the weekend.

It is such a cultural mix of sport and community activity and important in so many ways.

“Our organisations across the shire organise community events incredibly well and as a council we’re committed to supporting them. There is always something on offer.

“It all adds to the livability of the Northern Grampians, making it a great place to work and visit.”

Mr Bailey said major-event planning would now zero in on the Grampians Grape Escape.

“We’re expecting a large visiting crowd to roll into Halls Gap and to perhaps invest even more money in the area during their stay than at the gift,” he said. “We have many indicators suggesting as much. For example, $70,000 went through an on-site automatic teller machine at Halls Gap last year. This represented only a snapshot of the financial bonus it represents, with vendors also exchanging money through their own Eftpos facilities.

“And this year looks like another big festival with many positive signs.

Ticket sales are well up.”

FOCUS ON FASHION: Ladies day was again a highlight at this year’s Stawell Gift Easter carnival at Stawell’s Central Park. Both ladies and men dressed to impress, with quality high among the field.

Power upgrade push for region From page 1 Mr Benjamin said a task force submission to AMEO that ‘Victoria’s power system was undergoing unprecedented change and it is critical that reliability of supply to consumers is maintained during this transition.

‘Western Victoria, in this instance defined as the Central Highlands, Wimmera Southern Mallee, Mallee, Loddon Campaspe and parts of the Great South Coast, has been identified as a pri-

mary area for the renewable-energy development.

‘The area has natural assets of stable wind and sunshine on largely flat land, ideally suited to both wind and solar-renewable options’.

Areas of the Wimmera, Western District and Pyrenees have experienced a boom in major renewableenergy production with wind and-or solar-farm projects completed, underway or earmarked for development across the region.

Green Lake closed Green Lake south of Horsham is again closed to the public following a blue-green algae outbreak.

Horsham Rural City Council technical services director John Martin said samples of water from the lake confirmed ‘very high levels’ of the potentially toxic algae.

Direct contact with the blooms can cause allergic reactions such as skin rashes or itchiness, sore eyes, ears and nose, or – if swallowed – gastroenteritis, nausea

or vomiting. “People who come into contact with this water should wash affected skin immediately in clean water,” Mr Martin said.

“People are also advised not to use the affected water for cooking, drinking, washing or showering. Boiling the affected water will not make it safe to use.”

Mr Martin advised visitors they could still enjoy other recreational activities such as bushwalking, boating and sightseeing around the lake.

He said the council would monitor the lake.

Catch results a sign of healthy river A

BY DEAN LAWSON

significant catch of highend predatory native fish in Jeparit’s annual Easter fishing competition has continued to reflect a significant turnaround in the health of the lower Wimmera River.

Anglers weighed in more than 100 fish during the Saturday contest, including a winning yellowbelly or golden perch that tipped the scales at 3.581 kilograms.

Horsham’s George Alcock caught the fish near Hindmarsh Ski Club on a stretch of river that a decade ago that was so stressed from conditions

caused by drought that it was devoid of recognisable life.

Mr Alcock pocketed a $2000 cash first prize for his fish.

His catch finished ahead of a string of other big yellowbelly, which after release into the river rely completely on a complex ecological food chain in the waterway.

Dallas Oakleigh from Dartmoor was second with a 2.892kg fish, Blue McIntyre, Horsham, was third, 2.843 and then Dale Stephan, Nhill, 2.698 and Mathew Walker, Horsham, 2.494.

Nellie Nossack of Nhill won a junior competition, taking home $500 cash and a swag thanks to a 2.191kg yellowbelly.

Apart from the fish they weighed in, anglers caught many more undersized fish, including carp, redfin, silver perch, catfish and even a couple of bass.

As part of catch-and-release requirements of the contest, all native fish went back into the river.

Increase in entries

Event secretary-treasurer Paul Holmes said entries for the annual contest were up on last year, with more than 450 anglers registering to fish for prizes.

“It was a great success. We were about 30 to 40 entries up on last year and there were many smiling faces.

Everyone I spoke to had a really good time,” he said.

“We promote the contest as a family event and a lot of kids turned up. We had 130 showbags to give away and we ran out.”

The Weekly Advertiser was the primary sponsor of the event that ran from 7.30am to 3pm between Jeparit boat ramp and ski club in ideal autumn conditions.

Jeparit’s population swelled during the weekend with anglers, some who had travelled as long as five hours to take part, making the most of an opportunity to camp on the banks of the river.

Mr Holmes said Jeparit came alive

with the influx of people and the event continued to grow.

“It’s just getting bigger and bigger.

We’re always open to how we can improve things and will have a debrief next week. It is unlikely we will be changing too much apart from seeing whether we can attract more sponsors,” he said.

A study into the value of water has revealed the Wimmera River contributed $4.7-million to the regional economy in 2017, with fishing competitions providing major boosts.

The study suggested last year’s Jeparit contest generated $144,000 for the region.

Funding boost for two centres

The State Government has confirmed it will provide $208,300 to support the upgrade of two community centres in Horsham.

The funding for Oasis Wimmera and Wimmera-Mallee Multicultural Community Hub will come through the Labor government’s Community Infrastructure and Cultural Precincts, CICP, program.

CICP promotes greater use of community facilities by Victoria’s culturally diverse communities, increasing their participation in activities, improving access to services and enabling Victoria’s cultural precincts to remain attractive for cultural and tourism activities.

Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said

$175,000 had been approved for the Centre for Participation to upgrade the community hub in Horsham.

A further $33,300 has been earmarked for Horsham Rural City Council to create a home for Oasis Wimmera to help provide social support for newly arrived Wimmera migrants.

“By ensuring diverse communities stay connected and have access to good facilities, we can create an inclusive multicultural society that everyone in Horsham can be proud of,” Ms Pulford said.

“By working together with Wimmera communities, we are building a Victoria where everyone belongs, feels accepted and can freely participate and contribute.”

Henty Highway upgrade to improve road safety in Horsham Work is set to start on a Dooen Road section of the Henty Highway in Horsham as part of a safety upgrade.

Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said the $35,000 package of works included the installation of a painted centre median strip between McPherson Street and Edith Street to more clearly define traffic lanes and provide greater separation of vehicles.

Horsham motorists raised the issue based on Dooen Road having traffic lanes up to six metres wide, suggesting the circumstance gave drivers the perception that the road’s speed limit was great than the 60kmh in place.

The new median strip will also be designed to deter vehicles from travelling side by side in the same lane.

Ms Pulford said traffic flow along the busy one-kilometre stretch would also dramatically improve with clear-

ly marked left and right turns with painted arrows to safely guide drivers turning into neighbouring streets.

Bicycles lanes will also be painted in on the stretch of road.

Ms Pulford said the safety work would complement a recently installed pedestrian refuge in nearby Searle Street.

“These much-needed safety improvements will help to prevent serious crashes on this important freight

route between Horsham and Dooen,” she said.

“The new centre median strip will help to more clearly define traffic lanes and provide greater separation of vehicles.”

Motorists in about 8100 vehicles use Dooen Road daily. This includes 1100 heavy vehicles, representing about 13 percent of traffic.

Two vehicle crashes involving injuries have occurred at the location

in the past five years. Works are due to start in the next fortnight and are expected to be completed mid-year.

Funding for the upgrade came from a government Building our Regions package, which identified projects in collaboration with councils and the community.

During the upgrade, traffic-management measures will be in place to help road users navigate through the works.

Send them off! It’s not cricket...

F

or those of us old enough to remember, there was a glaring problem with country football that was dangerous and ugly.

It was a sport that left a door ajar for thugs to play a major role in the outcome of a contest with violence, especially in grand finals.

At times, the game was also rife with poor player behaviour towards umpires and officials. Penalties only came long after the conclusion of a game.

In a modern world of evolving sensibilities, this eventually became unacceptable and there was widespread understanding that, for the good of the game, it was an issue that needed fixing.

Along came the red and yellow cards and with them, the send-off rule that

EDITORIAL

By Dean Lawson, editor

not only punished players for indiscretions, but also teams which had to try to cope without a full contingent of playing personnel on the ground.

The impact was profound and while we still get the odd brawl and incident, the days of all-in bloody and brutal fistfights and crude and relentless tirades directed at umpires are things of the past.

Crucially, with coaches unwilling to risk serious disadvantage of being a player down during the heat of

sporting battle, the send-off rule had its desired effect. It has been a major success story.

Some of us can’t help but wonder whether this type of radical approach to ‘clean up the game’ might now be appropriate for international cricket.

There seems little doubt, based on the background of the cheating scandal, a story many of us are sick of hearing about, that players have long breached the traditional boundaries of decency in the game and there is a need for action.

What about a send-off rule? Sounds ridiculous and certainly not cricket, but imagine the immediate impact.

Methods of cheating in cricket such as ball tampering have their genesis from players developing or inheriting a lack of respect for opponents, umpires and the game overall. It can

unveil itself in a moment of frustration in the form of simple but nasty sledges that grow like a cancer.

Sledging has always been part of cricket, especially clever or funny exchanges, but there has never been a place in the game for personal or aggressive verbal attacks. That is certainly ‘not cricket’.

Standing up and letting efforts with bat and ball do the talking is what cricket is really all about.

Boundaries

Arming umpires with a send-off rule for serious on-field indiscretions would provide them with the potential to punish a team, not just individuals, and work to reclaim and tighten behavioral boundaries.

Imagine a team’s disadvantage in losing a bowler, batter or fielder for

a penalty 10 overs, especially in tight and elite competition. It would be dramatic and force team leaders to enforce stricter codes of conduct.

It would also reduce the need for authorities to come in afterwards with a big stick to bludgeon a player out of the game.

Cricket is a national pastime steeped in tradition. But the levels of pressure and expectation to succeed at all costs, from elite to domestic levels, seems to have caught up with the game.

It might be that even threatening to introduce send-off rules would be enough to influence behaviour – few of us, after all, really enjoy seeing too much radical change in our traditional sports.

But to paraphrase a much-used quote – ‘for things to stay the same, something has to change’.

LETTER Future alternatives

CHANGING SEASONS: A brilliant sunset transforms the Wimmera River in Horsham into various shades of orange, providing a reminder that 2018 calendar has now pushed beyond the autumn equinox and has set a course for cooler weather. The bleeding sky also came as people across the Wimmera adjusted their clocks from Australian Eastern Daylight Time back to Australian Eastern Standard Time.

SIR, – I read with interest your editorial, March 28, 2018,‘The Wimmera, yes we exist!’

In regards to Melbourne I agree that it is a ‘glaring red flag for a state that has a capital city slowly choking itself with a seemingly uncontrolled and costly urban sprawl’.

And I as many other people living in country Victoria have to travel long distances, wasting time and money to receive services for my health.

Urban planners seem to look no further than the area of Melbourne.

Health organisations and our rural councils in western Victoria should push for a halt to the cancer-like spread of Melbourne.

All shipping for Victoria and beyond arrives there to go where? Using totally congested roads. Dangerously overloaded airport facilities. Hours of commuting traffic, road repairs to upgrade and expand. Air pollution from industry in residential areas.

Shipping has to go through Port Phillip Bay to reach Melbourne, wasting hours.

There is a whole corridor from the south – Portland – to the north – Mildura – in western Victoria where exists a multitude of dying small towns.

There should be an urgent push for an al-

ternative port in the west at Portland, with its deep and open seaport.

This push should also include: A new freeway from Portland to connect to the Glenelg Highway and a ring road around Hamilton, going further north to connect to the Western Highway and ring road around Horsham – all to go to Adelaide to the west or to the east to Melbourne.

There could also be a new national and international airport in this area and a new ferry service in competition with the Spirit of Tasmania going to Stanley, north-west Tasmania.

Along the new corridors a development of new residential areas would remove the overcrowding of Melbourne and include commercial development and all other logistics to cope with a larger population such as education, governments and medical facilities, public transport facilities and freight. This would attract medical experts, specialists and hospitals.

This would open and develop the west, which would bring the small towns here into the new age and bring with it services, which are currently minimal, and technologies of the future.

Opportunity to expand W

BY DEAN LAWSON

arracknabeal YFest organisers are encouraging people to come up with new events or activities they might be able tie into the annual Easter attraction.

YFest secretary-treasurer Jean Wise said YFest had again been a great success and had become well entrenched in the region’s social calendar – so much so that it almost ran itself.

But she also added that it had enormous potential to expand and an organising committee was always looking for new ways to link in and cross-promote new attractions.

“It is an opportunity for people to link in what they are planning or want to do with the festival – a case of the more the merrier,” she said.

“It might be a series of garage sales or regional car or motorcycle rallies or whatever. The sky’s the limit. We can tie it all in together.

“You don’t need to be part of the overall organising group. You can do your own thing and just get in touch to let us know what you have on or are planning.

“YFest has been a steady progression and we want to expand it further out across Yarriambiack Shire, which will open all sorts of opportunities and promotes greater participation for more people.”

Mrs Wise said last weekend’s event reflected how much of a magnet the festival had become.

“At one point you could hardly move for the amount of people in the main area at the Warracknabeal races,” she said.

“And as for the main-street parade – I

stopped counting the crowd at 2000. There was too many, so the estimate was that there were about 2500. And, as usual, it was a big and interesting parade and a lot of fun.

“There was also a solid turnover of people visiting the art show, busking attracted good numbers – although actual busker numbers were a little low – and our vintage rally was on par with other good years.

“There were certainly a lot of visitors from right across Australia and a lot of exhibitors.”

Mrs Wise said other events such as an annual golf tournament had solid support and an inaugural armed-bowlers triples tournament was also likely to grow.

Growing a flower, making a friend and waking up your world is the basis for a new children’s theatre show about friendship, music, planting and playfulness coming to Horsham in Easter school holidays.

That’s not a Daffodil will be at Horsham Town Hall on April 12 and include 10.30am and 1.30pm shows.

That’s not a Daffodil, inspired by Elizabeth Honey’s award-winning picture book, is about an imaginative young boy and his elderly Turkish neighbour. Tom is wary of Mr Yilmaz at first, but friendship, trust and playfulness blossom as they grow a daffodil together and enter into each other’s lives.

Rosalind Price, producer and former children’s book publisher said the show was funny and friendly and alive with music, puppetry and animation.

“It’s perfect for little kids aged from three to six – they get totally involved – but it works for older kids, parents and grandparents, too, because it’s full of surprises,” she said.

“Everyone can join in. The themes are timely and universal: Growth and transformation, the cycle of seasons, tuning into nature, connecting with people across age and cultural difference, and seeing the relationships between all things.”

Turkish-Australian director Görkem Acaroglu leads an outstanding team of Honey, composermusical director Sue Johnson, performers Kayla Hamill, also a clown doctor in children’s hospitals, experienced Turkish actor Celal Perk, designer Katherine Branch and lighting designer Shane Grant.

Horsham Town Hall marketing co-ordinator Charee Smith said That’s not a Daffodil was part of the venue’s commitment to support families to engage and connect through great theatre experiences.

“We’re encouraging grandparents and parents who are seeking holiday inspiration to enjoy this delightful show that displays playfulness no matter what your age,” she said.

Tickets are $20 an adult, $15 concession and $60 for a family and are available online at horshamtownhall.com.au or by calling 5382 9555.

Teamwork key to gathering N

BY DEAN LAWSON

orthern Grampians mayor Tony Driscoll has used the scheduling of a major gathering of community, business, bureaucratic and political leaders in Stawell next month to stress the importance of regional teamwork.

Cr Driscoll said a Wimmera-Southern Mallee Regional Assembly on May 30 represented another opportunity for the region to identify, consolidate and exploit the benefits of regional partnerships.

“The critical point to emphasise about these gatherings is that they allow us to put regional parochialism to the side and open the door for a collaborative approach,” he said.

“We need to think more as a region, where we can tap into our collective strength and help each other, explore new ground or build on something.

“It’s about having initiative, sharing ideas and being aware that ev-

eryone sees things through a different lens.

“Hopefully what we can do then is crystallise some of these visions into reality.”

The State Government launched its Regional Assemblies through nine Regional Partnership groups it forged across the state in 2016.

In 2017, more than 2000 people attended the assemblies to help identify and refine regional priorities and to establish a direct link to State Government decision-makers.

The past two Wimmera-Southern Mallee assemblies, involving Hindmarsh, Northern Grampians, West Wimmera, Yarriambiack and Horsham municipalities, have been in Horsham.

Interpretations of discussions identified in 2017 prioritise a need to: Support children in the region aged up to six to flourish; ensure local government can operate sustainably; activate prosperity through economic diversification with a focus on agriculture and tourism;

increased access to high-quality mobile phone and internet connectivity; facilitate integrated and publicly available regional planning across the region; enable co-ordinated regional service delivery; and increase connectivity and prosperity through improved transport infrastructure including roads and public transport.

Business model

From the assemblies, the State Government, as part of its 2017-18 budget specifically provided funding to develop a business model for a Networked Grains Centre of Excellence in the region and money for future planning to develop the region’s tourism industry.

Cr Driscoll said having this year’s Wimmera-Southern Mallee assembly in Stawell Town Hall provided a subtle change in dynamics and helped emphasise the collective approach to development.

“From our point of view it perhaps gives us a chance to provide further

Hair today, gone tomorrow Horsham’s Jett Wilson, 9, will farewell his lengthy blond locks next month, all for a good cause.

While the Horsham West Primary School youngster has grown fond of his new look, he will gladly surrender to the hairdresser’s scissors on May 26.

Jett has grown his hair to donate to Variety children’s charity’s Hair with Heart project, which makes specialised wigs for people who have lost their hair due to medical conditions.

He is also raising money to add to his donation of hair and five weeks into his project has attracted almost $1000.

Jett’s mother Tiarrna Wise said Jett came up with the idea and had embraced the project, although he had initially been hesitant about growing his hair long.

“He has a little bit to go.

His hair needs to be at least 35.5 centimetres long to donate and on the last measurement it was 35 centimetres from the roots. He will be there in a few weeks,” she said.

“He decided to also raise money with an aim of getting at least $500 but he’s almost

insight into the projects we have in our shire, such as the Bulgana Green Power Hub and how ideas can come together,” he said.

“But it is really about maintaining momentum and making sure it’s not just a talk fest.

“We must continue to generate enthusiasm from getting together and that means getting some action and something tangible out of it all.

“This might involve a bit of a journey but it is important for our best concepts to get to a point of becoming realities.”

Ararat, meanwhile, is part of a Central Highlands Regional Partnership, which also includes the City of Ballarat as well as Golden Plains, Hepburn, Moorabool and Pyrenees shires. Its Regional Assembly is in Ballarat on June 14.

Regional Partnership budget wins for 2017-18 were a $47.8-million government hub project in Ballarat and a $39-million second-stage Ballarat passenger rail upgrade to establish better services to Ararat.

Parking plan Stawell and Halls Gap business owners have had their say on a prospective parking plan for Northern Grampians Shire’s major trading zones.

Members of the council’s local laws team have visited several businesses within the towns’ central business districts to seek input on a draft parking plan.

Survey feedback will play a major role in the development of a parking policy.

Mayor Tony Driscoll said the visits followed a similar process at St Arnaud, which discovered 80 percent of respondents would prefer a parking restriction time of one and a half to two hours.

He said the process aimed to engage as many businesses as possible.

“At the end of the day, the owners and operators of our businesses have the best understanding of how parking can affect them, and it’s important that we engage with them and incorporate their feedback into any parking plan,” he said.

Cr Driscoll said feedback from the Stawell and Halls Gap surveys would be collated and incorporated into a submission to go before the council alongside data collected via the earlier St Arnaud survey.

“Kaniva has probably missed out a little but as a general rule everyone else across the region has had good rain to either get their crops established or to sow with confidence.”

Widespread late autumn rain, heavy in some areas of the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians, represents a potential trigger for the region to emerge from two dry and poor growing seasons and drought conditions.

THUMBS UP FOR HOLIDAYS: Emily Lu and Eva Macumber enjoy a rock-painting workshop as part of Horsham Regional Art Gallery’s Easter school holiday program.

Wimmera organisations are hosting a plethora of activities to entertain children throughout the holiday break.

Official opening S

kate board demonstrations, a workshop and competitions will be among highlights of official openings of major Hindmarsh Shire projects at Dimboola and Rainbow.

Hindmarsh Shire Council leaders will open Rainbow Skate Park on Monday and Dimboola Skate Park on Tuesday, with festivities to start at noon on both days.

Mayor Ron Ismay said the opening days were planned to coincide with the school holidays.

“Because both skate parks have been supported and included in the 2016-2020 Hindmarsh Shire Youth Council Strategy, we want the openings to be a fun-filled day with

plenty of entertainment for our youth rather than just a formal opening,” he said.

“With the assistance of funding through the Freeza program, both events will include a barbecue lunch, music by a local DJ and skate board demonstrations followed by a workshop and competition that will provide giveaways and prizes at the end of official proceedings.”

Melbourne-based skateboarding service Ownlife will run the demonstration and workshop.

“I encourage parents, children and youth to come to either or both events as there will some fantastic entertainment and action,” he said.

“It will be a great way to launch the skate parks for Dimboola and Rainbow.”

Dimboola Skate Park is located in Dimboola Recreation Reserve near the sports stadium and Riverside Holiday Park, while the Rainbow skate park is at The Oasis in the former primary school site in King Street.

The skate parks were funded through the State Government’s Sport and Recreation Victoria Community Sports Infrastructure Program 20172018 and Hindmarsh Shire Council.

Competition entrants must sign a waiver and consent form and those under 15 will require signed parental permission.

People can pick up forms from council’s customer service offices or by emailing Meg Hall at mhall@hindmarsh.vic. gov.au.

Comedy show in Horsham One of Australia’s most unique comedy acts, The Umbilical Brothers, will perform at Horsham Town Hall on Sunday night.

Award-winning comedic duo Shane Dundas and David Collins, renowned for incorporating creative vocal interpretations, mime, story-telling, light, props and audience participation into their situation

acts, will present their ‘Speedmouse’ show during their Horsham performance.

Speedmouse, in its 15th year, is one of several shows The Umbilical Brothers have performed in 37 countries.

Promoters describe Speedmouse as a ‘live-action, facepaced, rewind, slow-motion, frame-by-frame adventure where two men create the im-

possible from a microphone’ and show off ‘a unique physical ability that has no equal’.

The Umbilical Brothers formed from a meeting between Dundas and Collins while at the University of Western Sydney in 1988.

POPULAR: Canadian band The Good Lovelies will perform in Ararat on Saturday night.

Lovely show at Gum San Canadian group The Good Lovelies has included Ararat in its latest tour of Australia.

The group will perform in Gum San Great Hall for Ararat Live on Saturday night.

Ararat Live’s Rob Shea said The Good Lovelies played to a packed crowd in 2014, so organisers booked a larger venue for the band’s return visit.

“We’re really excited to have them back and we’re sure they will be very well received by Ararat Live regulars and newcomers,” he said.

“The Good Lovelies – Kerri Ough, Sue Passmore and Caroline Brooks – are immensely talented vocalists and songwriters in their own right. However, it’s their voices interwoven in harmony – powerful and pure, organic and inspiring – that elevates them from impressive to peerless.”

Double-bass player Marie-Josee Dandeneau and drummer David Ross McDonald will also be part of the band.

Throughout the course of a decade-plus career, The Good Lovelies has covered plenty of stylistic ground, adding tinges of pop, roots, jazz, and

even hip-hop to its country-folk core at various points.

The trio first united in 2006 for a one-off performance and has since compiled a catalogue of four studio albums, a pair of EPs, a live album and Christmas collection.

“Their upcoming collection offers a perfect balance between a more modern production style and the wholesome musical influences that have made them a household name over the years,” Mr Shea said.

“The Good Lovelies released their latest album Shapeshifters late in 2017 and will be showcasing some of the new songs for Ararat Live.”

The Ararat show will start at 8pm.

Tickets cost $25 an adult and are available online at www.trybooking.com or at the door.

Mr Shea said Ararat Live would like to acknowledge the ongoing support of Ararat Rural City Council, which helped secure Gum San for the show.

People can call David Nicholson on 0409 848 960 or email araratlive@davidsmedia.com for more information.

The Metro Tunnel will get Melbourne’s train network moving Untangling the City Loop means more trains, more often The Metro Tunnel will untangle the City Loop which will benefit train lines across the network. It will make travel easier for you with more frequent trains carrying more people to destinations across Melbourne.

Some of Melbourne’s busiest metropolitan train lines – Sunbury, Cranbourne and Pakenham – will run exclusively through the new tunnel. Taking these lines out of the City Loop will create space for other lines to run more services, enabling more frequent and reliable train services to and from Southern Cross Station.

For the first time, you will be able to reach some key destinations around Melbourne via the Metro Tunnel’s five new underground stations: Arden (to be renamed North Melbourne), Parkville, State Library, Town Hall and Anzac. For instance, train passengers travelling to Victoria’s world class health and education precinct at Parkville will be able to get there directly by train instead of having to catch a tram from Southern Cross station.

When travelling in Melbourne

Two of the new stations, State Library and Town Hall stations, will be directly connected to the City Loop at Melbourne Central and Flinders Street stations, enabling passengers to conveniently interchange between services.

More information

Visitors to Melbourne may be affected by long-term traffic changes to St Kilda Road, near the Shrine of Remembrance, and Grattan Street, Parkville, as we undertake major construction.

Buses will also replace trams on sections of St Kilda Road from 1-17 April.

Expect delays and plan ahead.

Music acts named for grape escape A

band of brothers hailing from regional Victoria who established a reputation in south-east Australia’s pub-music scene will headline musical talent at this year’s Grampians Grape Escape.

The Settlement will perform at the May 5 and 6 event at Halls Gap, joining an entertainment list that also includes popular Ararat district soulfunk-blues ensemble Orange Whip and Adelaide soulful rocking group Wanderers, preparing to release a new single later this month.

Other artists who will grace the festival stage this year include Coby Grant, Nicholas Charles, Stringybark McDowell and Mollycoddle, Madhouse, Mitch King, Alice Skye and band, The Kite Machine and Grim Fawkner.

Grampians Grape Escape has long been a supporter of national and regional live musical talent, providing emerging artists and established professionals an opportunity to perform with Grampians National Park as a backdrop.

Festival director Vanessa Briody said this year’s festival was ‘the biggest yet’, and ‘has the most exciting music line-up to match’.

“Festival-goers can revel in the sound of live music as they sip on award-winning drops from the region, refuelling before the next act with a range of delicious food trucks serving Spanish paella, Forge woodfire pizzas and more,” she said.

“Enjoy the unparalleled experience of live music performed by local and national artists among the breathtaking Grampians bushland.”

This year Grampians Grape Escape is also teaming with chef and host of television series River Cottage Australia Paul West and former MasterChef Australia contestant and star of Channel 10’s The Cook’s Pantry Matt Sinclair for masterclasses and cooking demonstrations.

West said he had heard much about the Grampians.

“I can’t wait to get there and experiment with its renowned fresh produce and great wines,” he said.

Sinclair said the Grampians Grape

Mara is a seasoned Billy Joel performer who has performed Billy Joel hits for more than 20 years.

His Horsham performance is part of a national tour celebrating 45 years since the release of Billy Joel’s signature tune, ‘Piano Man’.

Mara was preparing to take this show out to the world in 2016 when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. He refused to let his MS symptoms get in the way of his passion for performing and planned one of his largest tours across Australia.

Mara and his five-piece band will present familiar songs such as Uptown Girl, For The Longest Time, Just the Way Your Are, My Life, We Didn’t Start the Fire as well as Piano Man and others.

The show also includes visual footage and narration that takes the audience into the depths of Billy Joel’s life.

wines and newly discovered products for festival goers to enjoy,” she said.

“The highly anticipated annual Grampians Winemakers Reserve Shiraz Barrique will be also returning to give bidders the chance to take home a rare taste of the Grampians once the weekend is over.

“Parents can also enjoy a glass, or two, knowing their mini festival-goers are well entertained at the festival village with native animals, boomerang painting, potting herb workshops, pasta making and plenty more.

“Whether you are looking for a weekend escape or a day’s getaway, gather the troops and head down to Grampians Grape Escape to sip on the region’s signature wines, browse more than 120 stalls, and embrace the unrivalled location.”

Adult ticket prices for the weekend start at $30 and range up to $110 ‘tasting ticket’ deals. Tickets for children under 18 are $15 and children under five are free of charge.

People can visit website grampians grapeescape.com.au to buy tickets and for more information.

Preparations are well underway for an annual Stawell Hospital Auxiliary Wine and Savoury Evening, at Stawell Entertainment Centre on April 13.

BILLY TRIBUTE: Anthony Mara will present a Billy Joel Tribute Concert in Horsham.

The event, starting at 6.30pm, is a celebration of food and wine as well as a fundraiser for Stawell Regional Health.

It culminates with an auction of wine from district wineries.

Auxiliary publicity officer Ruth Hatton said the evening was always popular and a great way for people to catch up with friends while at the same time raising money for a worthy cause.

The auxiliary has recently bought the flowing equipment for Stawell hospital: Uroflow meter, used by urologists in

“The auxiliary was able to purchase these items from money raised at our Garden Day last November,” Ms Hatton said.

“A huge thank-you to all the people who opened their wonderful gardens, assisting us in raise so much money to purchase much-needed equipment. We hope the public will support our Wine and Savoury Evening to enable us to continue contributing to the hospital in this manner.”

Tickets are $20 and available from Merrilyne Middleton, 5358 1952, Ruth Hatton, 5358 4789, or any auxiliary member.

Season 17 – Week 39 FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 2018

Week 39 hosted a feature sale at the Sydney Royal Easter show, showcasing the open cry auction system to an interested public, it coincided with a Superfine sale which included a 1PP specialty type of 11.7 micron which attracted a bid of 25,000 cents, the highest greasy price achieved since 2015. The upward market movement experienced during the previous selling week was short lived, this sale saw the market revert to price corrections. Prices across the entire merino spectrum were affected, resulting in general reductions of 20 to 30 cents for the week, the only exception a very limited quantity of 22.0 micron and coarser which managed small increases. Although all types and descriptions lost ground, it was again wools possessing high mid breaks that suffered the greatest reductions as buyers continually increased the discounts on these lots. At the same time the limited number of wools with very low mid breaks, enjoyed intense competition, resulting in these types recording very little change. By the end of the sale the Benchmark Eastern Market Indicator fell by 6cents, closing the week at 1,772 cents. The skirting market performed slightly better than the fleece, prices were generally reduced by 10 to 20 cents, wools with less than 3.0% vm and those with excellent length and strength resulted least affected. The crossbreds managed another week of increases, all types and descriptions added 10 to 20 cents. The oddment market also managed to record price rises. Locks, sta ins and crutchings generally sold at levels 10 to 30 cents above those achieved at the previous sale, resulting in the three car ding indicators adding an average of 24 cents. The annual Easter recess occurs in Week 40, all three centres have a break. Sales resume in Week 41, the current forecast for the National offering is 48,809 bales.

Big investment into mouse research A

ustralia’s largest investment into mouse-related research in the grains industry is about to get underway.

Grains Research and Development Corporation is injecting more than $4.1-million into mouse-control research, development and extension projects in response to increasing numbers of the rodents in key Australian grain-growing regions including the Wimmera and southern Mallee.

GRDC managing director Dr Steve Jefferies said the corporation recognised the enormity of the mouse problem and the severe impact it had on grower businesses and their families, communities and the broader industry.

“The issue with mice has escalated in recent years and we need to improve our understanding as to why that has happened so we can provide growers with innovative and more effective mouse-control options and tactics,” he said.

The new program includes three key investment projects led by CSIRO. The first investment of more than $3.2-million focuses on understanding mouse ecology, biology and management, the second on increasing surveillance and the third on mouse-feeding preferences.

The first investment is designed to provide growers and industry with a greater understanding of the behaviour of mice under no-till and stubble retention systems.

It also aims to quantify the impact of various management tactics, such as strategic tillage, seeding systems, food and habitat reduction, on mouse numbers.

Dr Jefferies said management strategies to control mice had, until now, been based on research involving conventional cropping systems which often incorporated tillage, burning and removal of stubbles, as well as more livestock than was typical of today’s farming systems.

“Our farming systems have changed markedly since then,” he said.

“No-till, stubble retention and in many cases little or no livestock are now the norm in many areas, so we need to know whether these contemporary, conservation-farming practices are now favouring the persistence of mouse populations from one season to the next due to maintenance of year-round habitat, lack of soil disturbance, or whether there are other factors at play.

“We are no longer seeing a plague situation one year, followed by a sudden crash in the population and the absence of mice for extended periods of time thereafter.

These days, mice seem to be a constant and our high-yielding crops and heavy stubbles appear to be providing them with an abundance of food and protection.”

Technology

Researchers expect to use technology such as in-burrow cameras and radio-tracking devices during the studies to better understand mouse behaviour.

The second key investment of more than $630,000 will expand and extend GRDC’s involvement in national mouse monitoring and surveillance.

The aim is to develop a more precise ‘real-time’ national early warning system

for potential plagues and to equip growers with the ability to manage increases in mouse populations to minimise crop losses and reduce economic impacts.

The third key investment commits up to $275,000 to investigate mouse-feeding preferences and bait efficacy.

Broad-scale application of zinc phosphide wheat bait, at the prescribed rate of one kilogram per hectare, is the only method available for growers to control mice in their paddocks. But efficacy of this bait has become an issue.

Dr Jefferies said investment in this area would involve exploring conditions that led to the apparent reduction in attractiveness of zinc phosphide baits and subsequent lower efficacy.

He said the two key questions related to the role of background food availability on baiting efficacy, and whether there were more suitable bait substrates.

“It appears mice have an aversion to the wheat-based bait in some situations,” Dr Jefferies said.

“This could be due to the availability of more appealing alternative food sources, such as barley and pulses, so the GRDC and its research partners will be endeavouring to determine if this is in fact the case.

“Researchers will also be investigating whether mice stockpile non-baited grain and other food sources in order to survive, and if so the research will aim to determine the optimum time to bait to overcome this mouse survival technique.”

Flu shots available at chemists Wimmera pharmacists have reminded people across the region they no longer need to visit a GP to receive an influenza vaccine.

Under new laws from last year, pharmacists who have passed a vaccination-training program can now administer flu shots any day of the week.

Terry White Chemmart Horsham owner Jossy Dan said response to the new regulations last year suggested people were aware of the importance of vaccinating.

“We were constantly busy administering flu shots last year and I expect it will be even busier this season,” he said.

“Our community is well aware of the demand on our GPs these days.

“The fact that they can visit

FRIENDLY JAB: Terry White Chemmart pharmacist Amanda Carracher prepares to administer a flu shot. a pharmacist rather than add to the doctor’s waiting list makes things easier for everyone.”

Mr Dan said many customers last year commented on the convenience of being able to

drop into the pharmacy for a flu shot.

He said the 2018 vaccine was designed to resist four main influenza strains.

“Everyone should safeguard

against the flu by getting vaccinated, but certain groups are more vulnerable,” he said.

“Most people recover from the flu reasonably well but many can be seriously affected by the flu and more serious cases can sometimes result in death.

“Those at the higher risk level include pregnant women, older people and people with particular health conditions.”

The basic principle of a vaccine is to prompt the body into developing a comprehensive defensive response to an infection by exposing it to an inactive version of the disease.

This means when confronted with the real infection, the body already has in place a defence mechanism to beat the invading organism.

Investing: Reduce concentration risk C

oncentration risk. No, it’s nothing to do with thinking too hard about something. In fact, it’s more likely to be a result of not paying enough attention.

Concentration risk is the increase in investment risk that comes about from not sufficiently diversifying your portfolio. In other words, too much money is concentrated in too few assets, sectors or geographical markets.

This can happen: • Intentionally, because you have a strong belief that a particular share or sector, such as resources, banks or property, is likely to outperform in the future.

• Unintentionally, through asset performance. One or two shares deliver spectacular gains, making the entire portfolio more sensitive to moves in just a couple of assets. Or maybe shares as a whole enjoy a period of strong growth. Even though you hold a large number of different shares, the increased exposure to one asset class increases the risk to your portfolio.

• Accidentally, through poor asset selec-

tion. Nine out of the ten top companies that make up the MSCI World Index also appear on the top ten list of the main US index, the S&P 500. Investing in two funds, one that tracks the world market and one that tracks the US market won’t deliver the level of diversification you might expect.

Managing your risk

The solution to concentration risk is our old friend, diversification.

• Appreciate the importance of asset allocation, the art of spreading your money across the main asset classes of shares, property, fixed interest and cash. Ensure your asset allocation matches your tolerance to investment risk.

• Diversify within each asset class. Holding the big four banks is not a diversified

share portfolio. If property is your thing, buying four one-bedroom apartments in the same building, or even in the same area, creates a huge concentration risk.

• Rebalance your portfolio to keep it broadly in line with your ideal asset allocation. This might create a tax liability, but often it’s better to pay some tax than to carry too high a level of concentration risk.

• Understand each investment and its role in your portfolio. Does share fund A hold similar shares to share fund B? Do they both have the same strategy?

• Get a professional opinion. Even if you are confident in making your own investment decisions it’s wise to run them by a licensed adviser.

It’s surprisingly common for investors to develop an emotional attachment to particular shares or properties they own.

Concentration risk can also increase over time due to lack of attention.

Your financial planner will assess your portfolio for hidden concentration risk and help you achieve a better balance of investments.

Planning for the future Community members can learn about advanced care planning at a Wimmera Health Care Group information session on April 17.

Residential In-Reach program co-ordinator Chris Dodson said Advanced Care Planning Week provided an opportune time for people to think about and plan for the future.

“Advance care planning helps to ensure that loved ones and doctors know what you or your loved one’s health and personal preferences really are,” he said.

“Planning ahead involves thinking and talking about what you want to happen in the future. It makes it easier and less stressful for family members.”

Advance care planning involves appointing someone to make medical decisions on an individual’s behalf and completing an advance care directive form.

Mr Dodson said an advance care directive only came into effect if the person involved was unable to make decisions for themselves. He said if that time came, an advance care directive would guide loved ones and doctors to make decisions respecting the person’s values and preferences.

The information session, including supper, will be in Wimmera Health Care Group’s Day Centre Building, Robinson Street, Horsham, from 6pm to 7pm.

People who plan to attend can RSVP by calling 5381 9391 by Monday.

GENEROUS: Kathy Mintern, left, and Judy Garwood launch Wimmera Hospice Care Auxiliary’s annual fundraising lunch. They are pictured with a quilt donated by Mary Grosser of Kaniva, which is one of the raffle prizes up for grabs on the day.

Annual Mother’s day lunch Wimmera Hospice Care Auxiliary has launched tickets for its major annual fundraiser, which raises money for equipment to help people with life-limiting illnesses.

Auxiliary president Lea Crammond said members had been planning for a Mother’s Day lunch in Horsham for almost a year, working hard to organise decorations, prizes and a menu.

The event will be on May 10 in St Andrew’s Uniting Church hall at noon.

“Tickets are $25 and include a threecourse luncheon and entertainment,” Mrs Crammond said.

“We have some beautiful prizes for the

raffle, which is run on the day. There are only 100 tickets available for the event and they sell out very quickly.”

Mrs Crammond said the annual fundraiser was always an enjoyable day.

“Horsham St Brigid’s College students will help us to set up the day before and Horsham College VCAL hospitality students will be serving and clearing meals as part of their training,” she said.

“This is something we all really look forward to.”

People can call Betty Corbett on 5382 4791 to buy tickets.

With over 24 years experience in private practice, physiotherapist Shaun can deal with a wide range of conditions, including both injury management, prevention and functional maintenance.

New view Introducing the CX-8

RICING and specification for the first Mazda CX-8 has been obtained by GoAuto prior to the showroom arrival of the sevenseat large SUV in the second half of this year.

Citing documents distributed to dealers, the CX-8 is set to be offered

in two grades, dubbed Evolve and Akina, with the former available in front and all-wheel-drive forms while the latter will only come with allwheel drive.

As such, the Evolve FWD is set to open the line-up from $48,294, rising to $52,462 for the Evolve AWD,

prices before on-road costs. However, according to Mazda Australia’s website, the CX-9 Azami AWD’s driveaway pricing reaches to $71,492 – the most expensive offering in the Japanese brand’s line-up – making the CX-8 Akina AWD $3400 cheaper.

When it arrives, the CX-8 will go

while the flagship Akina AWD will cost $68,092. All quoted prices are driveaway, from Melbourne.

Comparatively, the CX-8’s big brother, the petrol-powered CX-9, ranges from $43,890 for the entrylevel Sport FWD to $64,790 for the top-spec Azami AWD, with all of its

BMW expands its X2 offerings

B

MW Australia has boosted its X2 offerings from one to three by adding an entry-level petrol sDrive18i for $49,900 plus onroad costs and top-spec xDrive20d diesel at $59,900.

The two new variants sit either side of the current sole offering, a petrolpowered sDrive20i that costs $55,900 before on-roads.

As the new entry point into the stylish BMW X2 range, the sDrive18i is powered by a 103kW/220Nm 1.5-litre three-cylinder engine that sends power to the front wheels via a sevenspeed double-clutch automatic transmission to enable a 9.6-second zeroto-100kmh sprint time.

Although BMW has yet to divulge fuel-economy figures and CO2 emissions, the base three-pot should best the 141kW/280Nm turbocharged 2.0-litre four pot sDrive20i’s 6.0L/100km and 138g/km figures.

Standard equipment on the sDrive18i includes 18-inch wheels, LED head and fog-lights, automatic tailgate, multi-function sports steering wheel, reversing camera, digital radio, sixspeaker sound system, satellite navigation, 5.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, lane departure warning, forward collision warning, front and rear park distance control, and cruise control.

GIVE IT TO YA: BMW has introduced new offerings in its X2 range.

The X2 xDrive20d, on the other hand, is powered by a 140kW/400Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel mill, sending drive to all four corners through an eight-speed sports automatic transmission.

From a standstill, the sole oil-burning X2 will hit 100km/h in 7.7s – matching the sprint time of the petrol sDrive20i – while fuel use is rated at 5.1L/100km and CO2 emissions are clocked at 134g/km.

Stepping into new X2 flagship will net buyers the same equipment as the sDrive20i, with either an M Sport X or M Sport package, 19-inch M alloy wheels, Alcantara anthracite upholstery with yellow highlight stitching,

sports front seats, M Sport suspension and automatic air-conditioning.

The expanded X2 range better positions BMW’s small SUV to take on the likes of the Audi Q2 and Mercedes-Benz GLA, which kick-off at $41,800 and $43,900 respectively.

Now with three model grades, petrol and diesel engine options, and front- and all-wheel-drive set-ups, BMW Group Australia chief executive Marc Werner said the new X2 line-up should be more appealing to SUV buyers.

“We have already seen strong interest in the X2, both via initial media reviews as well as in the dealerships and on our website,” he said.

“Now we have taken the opportunity to fill out the range, offering a strong entry offering in the sDrive18i, as well as the xDrive20d, a turbodiesel, all-wheel-drive range topper.

“With these options, the BMW X2 presents a compelling proposition for the small SAV – Sports Activity Vehicle – purchaser.”

Since going on sale this year, BMW registered 61 X2s to the end of February.

When I moved into my own place he was sad to see me go, but always called around to see if I was okay.

He was the kind of guy who always offered advice, but never expected me to take it.

I knew Dad wouldn’t be around forever, and the day I expected to be sad turned out to be a true celebration of his life I’ll cherish forever.

I’m so glad I have someone who cared to organise it.

P

TALENT SQUAD: Fourteen Horsham Amateur Basketball Association players have been selected for the 2018 BVC Regional Academy program. They are, from left, back, Ailish Heard, Jessie Lakin, Tarkyn Benbow, Saxon Sounness, Brodie Tepper, Rory Cameron, Freddie Frew and Zak Smith; and front, Imogen Worthy, Hugh Dougherty, Joel Freijah and Jasper James.

Youth to advance skills Seventeen Wimmera juniors will continue to advance their basketball skills after winning selection to a state academy program.

The Basketball Victoria Country under-14 Regional Academy Program trains and develops country athletes, with a focus on advancing both individual and team skills.

Regional Academy players attend regular small-group skills sessions at or near their home association, under the direction of a Regional Academy Network coach.

Players also attend two compulsory weekend live-in camps within their region.

Academy invitations were sent out following BVC under-14 skills days at nine regional centres across the state.

Fourteen Horsham Amateur Basketball Association players and three Ararat Basketball Association juniors received invitations.

A Horsham association spokesman said the south-west group looked strong again this year.

“HABA was rapt to see so many of its juniors at the tryouts,” he said.

“To have 14 athletes make it through with strong competition in the region presents a very exciting opportunity for our kids” About 900 players attended the skills days, which showcased the best and brightest from the country regions.

The 2018 BVC Regional Academy will run for 20 weeks. The program will also form the basis for Australian Country Junior Basketball Cup and Southern Cross Challenge selection in the relevant age groups for 2019.

2018 BVC under-14 Regional Academy Program invitees: Ararat Basketball Association, Fletcher Burger, Alec Carthew and Hugh Toner; Horsham Amateur Basketball Association, Tarkyn Benbow, Rory Cameron, Hugh Dougherty, Joel Freijah, Fredrick Frew, Jasper James, Adrianne Lupton, Zak Smith, Saxon Sounness, Brodie Tepper, Olivia Brilliant, Ailish Heard, Jessie Lakin and Imogen Worthy.

Seventeen current and former Volleyball Horsham members will be a part of the historic day with the highlight being the first time a Phantoms team will play in a premier women’s division.

This is a massive achievement by the club, which started out with one team in men’s division two in 2011 and has grown each year.

The level of interest by athletes from across western Victoria to play with the club resulted in coaches having to make cuts at selection trials in February.

The work the associations are doing to promote talent and what it means to play for the club has resulted in this unprecedented interest.

Matthew Berry, Nick Adamson and Cameron Robinson will line up on the premier men’s team, which will be confident of securing wins against Mazenod and Eastside Hawks.

Nathan Berry and Jack Hannan will be key players in the men’s reserves team, and they too have a double header, against Mazenod and Monash Uni. Volleyball Horsham veteran Tim Popple will lead the division-two team, which plays Mazenod and Eastside Hawks.

“I’m excited with the team I’ve got which includes three current Australian youth team members, so we’ll be keen to repeat last year’s result when they made finals,” Popple said.

In men’s division three Aidan O’Connor and Shaun Bray will take on Mazenod and Croydon

in two winnable games. Volleyball Horsham’s top female player Kara Johnson will play in the historic premier women’s team and she will share the setting duties with former member Jess Radford, when they take on Heidelberg.

“I’m looking forward to playing in the premier division and testing my skills against quality opposition week in week out,” Johnson said.

Murtoa College youngsters Laelah Robertson and Cleo Baker and the returning Delaney Wills will be key players in the reserves team and they have games against Heidelberg and Mornington.

Tamikah Dockrill will play on the division-two team with games against Heidelberg and Eastside Hawks.

In division three, former Volleyball Horsham member Kimberley Crabtree will make her return to the sport after a serious knee injury and she will have Murtoa College youngster Jade Saligari beside her.

The team have two winnable games against South Gippsland and Croydon.

It’s an exciting day for the club, one that underlines the importance of the club and how it completes the pathway for many talented athletes in associations across western Victoria.

Volleyball Horsham members, families and friends will get their opportunity to see just how far the club has come on May 26 and 27 when State League action returns to Horsham, with Phantoms hosting Victoria University.

Germany beckons for star Creek The Wimmera’s most decorated basketballer, Adelaide 36ers champion Mitch Creek, is set to join a professional team in Germany.

Creek, originally from Horsham and coming off the end of an outstanding Australian National Basketball League season, will play for BG Gottingen in its final eight Basketball Bundesliga games of the season. The decision means Creek,

25, will relinquish his place in an Australian Boomers team preparing for next month’s Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast.

Creek averaged 14 points and 8.8 rebounds a game against eventual championship winner Melbourne United in the NBL grand-final series.

His previous international stint was with Utah Jazz before he helped Australia to a gold medal at the 2017 FIBA Asia Cup.

Great Western

Lions in pursuit of more success G

BY JONATHAN BOX

reat Western’s solitary win in Mininera and District Football League in season 2017 far from reflected the club’s on-field performance and improvement.

2018 Great Western leaders, from left, BJ Birch-Burton, Danny Grellet, Aidan Marr and senior coach Will Bell.

With such a young list continuing to show improvement over the preseason the club is hopeful that the team, under coach Will Bell in his second season at the club, will be able to earn a few more wins.

The club has put a big emphasis on a solid pre-season, which started in November. The outfit’s team leaders are positive after seeing glimpses of quality football displayed last year.

With a similar list of players continuing on as well as filling key positions that they felt they lacked, the Lions are happy with where their senior team will be situated leading into round one.

The players are all keen and showing great commitment to training and the club has had great numbers at every session. This provides the Lions with an opportunity to work on whole-team improvement.

With 14 players playing 15 or more games, they have a settled core group of players to work around.

Last year, Sam Cocks and Shannon Notting were the team’s leading goalscorers, kicking 30 and 22 respectively, and were the only two players

2018 coaches Seniors: Will Bell Reserves: Aiden Lee Under-16.5s: Sam Cocks, Josh McCartney Under-12: Luke Notting to score double figures. Aiden Lee, Brady Miller, Patrick Bell, Rayne Salmon and Cocks were all standout players in 2017, consistently featuring in the best.

The recruiting process is continuing for the Lions and there are still some negotiations in progress. There are incoming clearances for the likes of Benjamin Birch-Burton, returning from the Wimmera league, and Aidan Marr, crossing over from Tatyoon.

Although the club has kept most of its 2017 list, outgoing clearances submitted include Jarrod Potter, Nathan Ross and most notably Thomas Schwab, who played 15 senior games last year.

As well as the senior team improving, the club is also excited to be improving across the board. It has an Auskick group and on the netball court, the club has gone from missing a few teams to now having a full complement.

With all these positives surrounding the club the Lions are very excited and eager to get the season underway.

Rovers aim for finals A

BY JONATHAN BOX

fter an up and down 2017 Mininera and District Football League season, SMW Rovers ended up with 10 wins and narrowly missed out on finals.

Pushing towards the close of the 2017 season the Bulldogs won five out of their last six games, including a seven-goal win over ultimate premier Lismore-Derrinallum.

Being so close to making finals and having success in claiming a reserves premiership have been major factors in the Bulldogs’ pre-season and helped the club largely retain most of its 2017 list.

Pre-season has been ticking along nicely, with considerable emphasis on the playing group doing a lot of outside extra work in order to put its best foot forward come game time.

The coaching staff has been happy with the numbers as well as the quality and skills that have been on the track week in, week out.

They hope the team can improve on last year’s performance to finally make the finals.

Adding to last year’s already settled senior group is a list of new recruits to top up where team leaders felt they lacked.

These include Kal Young from North City, Dan Curran and Luke Relouw, Newlyn, Tom McWilliam, Beaufort,

Tom Thewlis is primed for a big year with SMW Rovers. Picture: PETER MORGANTI

2018 coaches Seniors: Louis Franc, Kane Tolliday Reserves: Ben Tait Jake Seers, Clunes, and Ben Nankervis who is returning from travelling overseas.

These players have been selected to complement the Rovers’ core group of John Forbes, who was last year’s club best and fairest, Tom Thewlis, a local youngster who is growing and improving each year, and Lachlan Pickering and Alex McCarthy, who are both very solid footballers who do a job each week.

On the list as well are Jarryd Underwood, who was last year’s club leading goal-kicker. His 63 goals put him in the top five for the league.

With tall youngster Patrick Graham being the only outgoing player for the Bulldogs, the club hopes the new players will boost the depth of both senior and reserve teams and push them in the right direction.

SMW Rovers will travel to Macarthur to play Hawkesdale-Macarthur, a team that is always hard to beat, in round one.

The Bulldogs won one and lost one against the Eagles last year and with this in mind the visitors will be keen to undertake the first challenge of the season and start strongly.

Wishing SMW Rovers FNC all the best for the 2018 season!

Southern Mallee Giants

Numbers strong for new debut S

BY SARAH SCULLY

outhern Mallee Giants will field a largely changed line-up when they enter their first Wimmera Netball Association season next week.

Trudi Hallam

The Giants, who switched from Horsham District league in January after a two-year stint, will have their first taste of Wimmera action against Warrack Eagles on April 14.

A Grade midcourter Kimmy Shannon has added coaching to her repertoire this season and is pleased with how things are shaping up for the Hopetoun-Beulah combine.

“So far pre-season is going well,” she said.

“Numbers have been really good. Since the first week we’ve had about 25 girls consistently, which is really good considering we have a number of travellers.”

The club will field all teams bar C Reserve – because the Wimmera competition does not offer the grade – and 15 and under B. Shannon said teams were yet to be finalised, although the club had plenty of numbers to choose from.

2018 coaches A Grade: Kimmy Shannon B Grade: Kelsey Renkin C Grade: TBC 17 and under: Debbie Riggall, Anna Lake 15 and under A: Jo Credlin 13 and under: Jo Credlin Net Set Go: Camille Donnan

“We probably have more than we need to fill teams but you need to cater for injuries – and pregnancies – so we’ve probably got a perfect amount,” she said.

“Our A Grade top seven is pretty set but I’m still working out the last couple of players.

I’ll probably decide the week of the game.”

The Giants have been hit with some big-name losses from across the court, with reigning best and fairest Caitlin Hickey, Annabel Stewart, Annie Noonan and Courtney Wareham.

“They are big shoes to fill but hopefully we haven’t done too bad in replacing them,” Shannon said.

“We’ve had a few local girls

come back this year, including Zoe Turnbull, who used to play at Beulah. We’ve also picked up Ruby Fisher, whose brother has played here for the past couple of years.”

Both play in the midcourt and goals, while returning players Maddelyne Foott and Courtney Williams will fill holes in defence.

“Madde had a year off to have a baby and Courtney had a knee reconstruction, so it’s great to have them both back,” Shannon said.

Returning players include shooter Codie Robins and midcourter Trudi Hallam.

Shannon said the club’s senior netballers had enjoyed their first hit out against outside competition, participating in a practice match against Sea Lake.

She said pre-season training had a strong focus on fitness this year.

“Fitness was really something we lacked a bit of last year so we’re making a bigger effort to focus on it early this year,” she said.

The Giants made A Grade finals in both years in the Horsham District league. The club’s C Reserve outfit was runner-up

in two consecutive grand finals and the 17 and under and 13 and under sides also tasted finals action last year.

Shannon said she would love to see the club push further in Wimmera association, but knew it would be tough.

“It was great to make finals in the district league but it was so competitive among the top teams,” she said.

“We would have loved to have gone that next step, but now we have a new challenge.

“I don’t know anything about any of the other Wimmera teams – I don’t really follow the league. I think it’s good though, because we will be able to take each opponent as they come and see where we stand.”

Shannon said round one was looming quickly and it would be good to have the first game under their belts.

She said she had a simple aim for the Giants’ inaugural season in the new association: To be competitive.

“We’ll see how we’re going in the middle of the season and if we are doing well, we’ll look at aiming for finals,” she said.

“But for now, we’re just hoping to be competitive.”

Southern Mallee Giants

Giants licking their lips E

BY DEAN LAWSON

xcited and hungry for success! That pretty much sums up a general feeling flowing from the north as Southern Mallee Giants prepare for their foray into Wimmera league.

Riley Lehmann

A politically correct message from the Giants is that they want to simply be competitive in their first season crossing over from Horsham District league.

But make no mistake, they want to make the finals and then push deeply into September action.

The Giants have established themselves as a regional flag-bearer as well as a dominating football force since forming as an amalgam of Beulah and Hopetoun clubs.

And they are sure to hit the ground running this year, especially in a highly anticipated season opener against Warrack Eagles, a club with which they are likely to establish a fierce rivalry.

Club president Brad Moore said preparations for a step into the Wimmera competition had gone well.

“It’s all good so far and things have been pretty smooth with no real hold-ups.

In fact we’ve had no negative feedback from anyone,” he said. “We’re all looking forward to it. We want to win more games than we lose. That’s the starting point and if we can make it to the finals we’ll take it from there. We just want to be competitive and hope we’re not out place.”

Seniors: Coleman Schache Reserves: David Baulch, Matt Webster Under-17s: Zac Robins, Neville McCredden Under-14s: Simon Cook The Giants are likely to have little trouble slipping into the groove but as new playing coach Coleman Schache revealed, will need to develop a fresh game plan and style.

“We’re pretty happy with how things are going. Everyone is training hard, everyone is getting to know the new recruits and we’re all excited with the new challenge ahead,” he said.

“We know we’re going to have to play to the strength of the team and that involves having a bit of a different structure to last year. We know we are also going to need to be fitter and more consistent.”

There will be various elements to restructuring the team. Big full forward Kain Robins has gone to coach Charlton, which means the Giants, as Schache admitted, ‘need to find 100 goals’.

“We’re going to be a little bit smaller, which means we will need to use our strength and speed,” Schache said.

But the Giants have some more than handy ‘ins’ with lively Ballarat Swans small forward Nick O’Farrell, who led the Swans’ goal-kicking list last season, joining the team. The Giants signed up Josh Webster, who will join brother Ben, and

have also picked up Mildura Imperials ruckman Reece McNally.

Another major signing that has slipped under the radar is Jimmy Wray, who captained the Waratahs in the Northern Territory Premier league.

Wray formed connections with Giants Sam Weddell and Brock Orval who played with the Waratahs during the summer.

Clint Burdett and Lou White will also be likely to return from injury this year.

The recruits appear likely to more than offset the likes of Robins, Luke Mahony, who has gone to Camperdown, premiership coach Shaun Monohan, returning to Mansfield, unavailable Tom Hallam and perhaps Dale Shannon, who is likely to retire to take up bench-coaching duties.

Schache said the approaching season loomed as a mystery for the Giants and the club needed to adapt quickly to the competition.

“We have to work on attack and defence weekly but what is motivating and exciting us at the moment is a desire to play Wimmera league finals,” he said.

Mr Moore said the Giants’ only concerns surrounded efforts to consolidate junior playing numbers.

“Our under-14s appear okay, although we’ll be making up numbers with a few younger ones. We have only about eight players in our under-17s which means we will forfeit games but will work with other clubs to at least provide scratch matches where possible,” he said.

Warrack Eagles

Top-three ambition W

BY SARAH SCULLY

arrack Eagles will look to push further into Wimmera Netball Association finals in 2018 after retaining the majority of the club’s A Grade team.

Playing coach Sarah Spicer, who will again share the role with non-playing Jane Richardson, said it would be business as usual as the team looked to build on its strong foundations.

“We ended up finishing third on the ladder last year and fourth in finals,” she said.

“Our aim is to finish in the top three again and then to go one better in finals.

“Our major goal is always a premiership, but if you can go one better than the year before then that’s good too.”

Spicer said she and Richardson had selected a squad of nine instead of 10 this season.

“Not much has changed in A Grade, really,” she said.

“The main difference will be that I only played three games last year and then I had to have a knee reconstruction, so I’ll be right to play sometime after May. Megan Werner, Briodi McKenzie, Emma Koschitzke, Penny Fisher, Jess Kelly, Britenie Power, Jenna Schulz and Zandria Malone are all back for another season.

All eight played A Grade matches at some stage last year.

Spicer said she was expecting all her charges to play their role, however she

2018 coaches A Grade: Sarah Spicer, Jane Richardson B Grade: Alison Jess, Bonnie Gunn C Grade: Brooke Holland 17 and under: Megan Pryor 15 and under A: Morgan Clayton 13 and under: Courtney Clough, Tiffany Quinlan Net Set Go: Jess Kelly was expecting midcourter-defender Kelly to step up this season.

“Jess has come a long way in the past three years and I’m looking forward to seeing her continue on. Her fitness is really good and she’s been training well,” she said.

“I’m hoping Briodi can step up in goals this year and I think she will. She’s also looking really fit.

“In saying that, I’m expecting everyone to do what I know they are capable of.

They’re all good players, that’s why they’re in A Grade. I’m looking for them to be competitive and consistent each week.”

Spicer said pre-season was travelling well, with the club attracting good numbers again this year.

She said a highlight for 2018 was the return of a 17 and under team.

“We haven’t had the numbers in our juniors to have under-17s for a couple of years and to have a team again was definitely an aim for the club this year,” she said.

“Although we’ve had strong senior numbers we haven’t had the opportunity to bring up juniors through the senior ranks and provide them with that experience.

“We’ve only just got enough for under-17s and an under-15 team but we’re hoping to continue to build up our juniors and we’re excited about working with them this year.”

The Eagles had another good season on the court in 2017, with A, B and C grades all enjoying a taste of finals action.

“Our B Grade made it to the grand final, which they haven’t done in a while. Making finals in all three senior grades is a very healthy sign for the club and we’ll be out to do the same this year. With the teams we have I think we are capable of it and hopefully we will all be able to go a step further,” Spicer said.

The Eagles will start their 2018 campaign when they host league newcomer and fellow Yarriambiack force Southern Mallee Giants on April 14.

“It’s going to be weird because I’m a Warrack girl and growing up we always had a rivalry with Beulah, even though we were in different leagues,” Spicer said.

“I think it’ll be great to have another team in the competition though. I’m not too sure what to expect from them but I guess we’ll see soon enough.

“I’m looking forward to the season starting. After you put in eight to 10 weeks of pre-season, you’re ready to be rewarded with some time on the court.”

Warrack Eagles

Eagles out to improve W

BY DEAN LAWSON

arrack Eagles have been following an over-arching directive in Wimmera Football League for the past few years.

While what’s needed to make a regional football-netball club successful is often a complicated exercise, it’s a simple message of ‘improve every year’ that is feeding the Eagles’ furnace.

The Yarriambiack force has managed to tick this box in football while Ryan McKenzie has been at the coaching helm – initially achieving a goal to make the finals in 2016 and then winning a final last year.

Improvement this year means winning at least two finals, and if that happens, the Eagles would suddenly have a sniff at a premiership.

Of course all the cards have to fall into place and predictions are that Wimmera league is primed for one of its most competitive seasons in years.

McKenzie said discussions in the Eagles camp often centred on continually taking steps forward.

“We talk about improving a fair bit and we have done that over the course of my couple of years – there has been steady improvement,” he said.

“The first year we were happy to make the finals and last year we were happy to make the top three. This year it’s about making the grand final – that’s our goal

New look cafe

2018 coaches Seniors: Ryan McKenzie Reserves: Chris Kellett Under-17s: Nathan Dunn Under-14s: Tim Bell, Aaron Watts and something we’re pushing towards.

It’s going to be a pretty tough and even competition, just how we all like it. If we can keep improving every week, with everyone working together and enjoying their footy, that’s all I can ask.”

While McKenzie suggested while he wouldn’t need to stray too far from the formula that took the Eagles to last year’s finals, he and his brains trust would need to rework structure and strategy.

The Eagles have lost the talents of Jesse Murphy to the state’s south-east, ruckman Scott Adams to North Central league and Kieran Ellis to Ovens and Murray footy.

But, offsetting the departures is a strong list of inclusions, with highly decorated Nick Peters returning home from Ballarat league, his brother Jake joining him from Geelong and District competition and veteran Jeremy Clayton putting his hand up to travel back from Adelaide to his original haunt to play some games.

The Eagles have also signed up keyposition utility Travis Lawson from East Gippsland and are in negotiations with another player who might join the list mid season.

The Eagles also have McKenzie, assistant coach Shannon Argall and Riley Morrow, all hit by injuries last year, fully fit for the start of the year.

“We won’t look to change too much although we’ve probably lost some height, which we couldn’t afford to, but at the same time brought in a few more runners,” McKenzie said.

“The way Wimmera league is played now height is not too much of an issue as long as we have a couple of talls. A running style tends to win more matches so we will look to be a quick team again the move the ball quickly from defence.”

Eagles president Adrian Bibby said the club was generally in a strong position to continue moving forward.

“We’re confident we have everything in place and like many others I’m just keen for the first bounce. We’re ticking along nicely,” he said.

“Our netball is very healthy, we have numbers for our junior teams and we seem to have more reserves players training than last year which is a good sign.”

One major difference that will quickly become obvious to Wimmera league fans this season is a new digital scoreboard at Warracknabeal’s Anzac Park.

The park’s traditional scoreboard, the background image for premiership teams dating back decades, will continue to be in operation for an opening-round match before the club switches to the new display.

Ararat cup success for Terang stallion T

HOT TO TROT

erang-trained four-yearold stallion Jilliby Bandit made a successful stride into open class racing when he took out the $30,000 Ararat Pacing Cup for the Lee and Craven dynasty.

The lightly raced son of Rock N Roll Heaven went into the Ararat feature as winner of 10 races from 25 starts but for the first time was taking on opposition that had already earned their stripes in the heat of battle that comes with country cup contests.

Jilliby Bandit, with Jason Lee in the sulky, began quickly from the coveted pole position but was unable to hold off the fierce challenge from Rule Of Thumb and driver Greg Sugars, and after the slick lead time settled into the sweet seat behind the leader.

Sugars immediately steadied the tempo and ran through the middle stages of the 2195-metre journey in a leisurely 62.9 seconds.

This set a near impossible task

for the bunch in the second half of the field.

The final quarters were run in 28.7 and 28.4 seconds and Jilliby Bandit, finishing solidly down in the sprint lane, ran down Rule Of Thumb to score by 1.5 metres with Motu Meteor – Kerryn Manning – a head away in third place.

“He’s always been a nice horse and I’m very happy with the way he has come back as a four year old,” trainer Marg Lees said after the cup win.

“He hasn’t done a lot of racing and should continue to improve as he goes along.”

Jilliby Bandit is highly unlikely to compete in upcoming country cups meetings at Mildura, Horsham, and Shepparton.

“Being only a four-year-old, those sort of races would be more suitable next year,” Lee said.

“At this stage his main aim is the New South Wales Breeders Fouryear-old Challenge so Marg will be just ticking him along until the semis in mid-June and hopefully the $100,000 final on July 1.”

Craigie train rolls on The Craigie domination of the Lindsay Kent Easter Sunday Memorial Fun Run rolled on when Canberra visitor Alan Craigie won the five-kilometre event in Stawell for the fifth time in the past six years.

His only defeat in the Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club event since 2013 came in 2014 when his brother Kevin was first to the timekeepers. Alan’s sister-in-law was the first female to finish in 2016.

In 2016, Craigie had amused onlookers at the presentation of sashes when he said, “I challenge you all to knock me off in 2017.

You won’t but it will be fun to try.”

But since then his tone has moderated.

“I don’t know how long this streak can go on for,” the 34-year-old said after his latest triumph.

“I’m getting older and I was challenged by a younger fella for most of the way today.”

Craigie’s time of 16.16 minutes easily eclipsed the 17.10 he posted last year in what was a satisfying warm-up for the Australian Mountain Running Championship at Hobart’s Mount Wellington next Sunday – a 10-kilometre slog from the base of the mountain to the summit.

First female to finish the fun run was Alison Wilson who had previously won in 2011 and 2013. Wilson had drifted away from serious running after her seventh marathon but is now looking for further goals.

Warrnambool teenager, Lochie Worden, another repeat winner after success in 2012-13, ran a cracking 11.41 to easily win a three-kilometre under-16s sash.

Big year ahead for new-look league

BY DEAN LAWSON

E

normous expectation surrounds a new-look Horsham District football league as teams prepare to lock horns for openinground competition this weekend.

The league has undergone a transformation with the shift of reigning premiers Southern Mallee Giants to Wimmera league and club leaders expect a significant rise in competitiveness to quickly emerge.

There was a broad sense that a chasm between the Giants and the rest of the field, apart from Harrow-Balmoral, was only going to get wider and most teams have welcomed the move.

But predictions of a contraction in the competition, where most teams have a fighting chance each week, remains to be seen and fans will get their first glimpse this Saturday of what lays ahead.

It is obviously hard to pinpoint a match of the round with excitement and confidence high in a variety of

camps. One game that does seem to stand out is a season opener between Kalkee and Laharum at Kalkee.

The Kees have generated plenty of discussion during the pre-season with new joint coach Stuart Farr promising the club under direction from himself and Hamish Exell will play an ‘exciting and fast’ brand of football.

The Kees have at least 10 new or returning players, which is also significant, and among the incoming group are prominent on-field standard-setters Simon Hobbs and Lachie Exell.

Laharum might also have a new look with its own list of newcomers under sole coach Robbie Miller, already match fit after a stint in Darwin football. Cam Streeter, Heath MacInnes, Liam Nuske and James Milich join the group and all eyes will be on Northern Territory recruits Daly Banks, Jack Nicolson and James Arratta.

Other games will generate as much interest, none more so than a contest between Natimuk United and arch rival Noradjuha-Quantong at Natimuk.

Hamish Exell Natimuk United has had a sniff of finals action and has a list this year that includes Garry Hallam as assistant under Sam Anson and others such as Jayden Styles and Jack Ford.

Noradjuha-Quantong goes into the season maintaining its mystery-and-potential status with new coach Gareth Hose in charge of an ever-emerging young crop of players.

Teams ready to launch R

BY SARAH SCULLY

eady, or not – round one is upon us.

Throughout the past couple of months I have had an opportunity to speak with A Grade coaches and-or netball directors from all Horsham District league clubs in the lead-up to the 2018 season.

The Weekly Advertiser’s HDFNL Netball Countdown series provides an in-depth look at how each club is shaping up, with a particular emphasis on A Grade.

On paper, we’ve looked at who’s in, who’s out, aims for the season and so on – and now it’s finally time to see it on the court.

Horsham District league has been hotly contested at the top end of the ladder for the past few years and this season will be no different.

Reigning premier Natimuk United will again be one to watch. The Ewes have retained their core A Grade group for several seasons and their knowledge of how each other plays combined with their experienced heads makes them hard to beat.

Natimuk United will host Noradjuha-Quantong first up and spectators will enjoy a competitive encounter from the perennial finals contenders. The Bombers have made several changes throughout the midcourt and in goals and will take a while to gel, but are already

showing plenty of promise. There will be significant interest in how a new-look HarrowBalmoral outfit shapes up. The Southern Roos have lost four key players from last year’s grand final team – including decorated leader Ebonie Salter – but incoming playing coach Amy Lewis is confident others will jump at an opportunity to fill their shoes.

One thing is for sure, you can never discount the Roos. The club is a long-time powerhouse of the competition that occasionally needs to re-jig, rather than rebuild.

Harrow-Balmoral will host Pimpinio, which will also field a new-look team this year under returning coach Marnie Lehmann.

Much has been written about Laharum’s new ‘discipline’ focus for 2018 and spectators will get their first glimpse of the Demons in action against Kalkee. Co-coach Rebecca McIntyre is looking for another strong year from her charges and the side will take no prisoners on its way to staking claim on a finals berth – although a young Kalkee outfit will not give up without a fight.

In other matches, Taylors Lake will host Jeparit-Rainbow, Edenhope-Apsley will welcome Rupanyup and Swifts have a bye.

Here’s to another exciting and competitive season.

Expectations are also high at Rupanyup, which will travel to play Edenhope-Apsley at Edenhope.

Rupanyup has also picked up quality players from Darwin who will gather under young coach Jack Musgrove.

Denny Musgrove, Zac Robinson and Chris Parris will join Hugh McMurtrie in the Panthers colours, alongside Matt Tyler, and the camp is excited with what the season holds.

Meanwhile, Chris Oliver has the job of marshaling the Saints troops and to counter a string of departures has the likes of Damian Monaghan, Jak Ryan and Chris Heath to help redevelop his group.

Insight

Self-confessed football project Taylors Lake will gain early insight if the work going into rebuilding the team will have long-term dividends when it plays Jeparit-Rainbow.

Jye Smith is back leading the Lakers and this year has had time to work with a relatively settled group.

ACROSS THE LEAGUES Wimmera Last week: Ararat 21.16 (142) d Stawell 9.5 (59).

Tim Inkster is leading Jeparit-Rainbow, which has had a productive recruiting drive, picking up a string of players from South Australia.

Kurt Waterman, Brad Hunter and Tom Eichner join new assistant coach Daniel Batson and Wayne Batson.

Last year’s runner-up Harrow-Balmoral will open its season with a contest against Pimpinio at Balmoral.

If the Southern Roos follow coach Nick Pekin’s direction they will play no-nonsense football and more than compensate for a string of player departures.

Ruckman Todd Lawrence is among newcomers to join an already tall list.

Pimpinio has experienced Nathan Sachse at the helm and if the Tigers were looking to gauge where they needed to improve this year then they will find out first game.

Pimpinio has plenty of ground to make up to be successful but the club has plenty of spirit and needs circumstance to fall its way to turn traction into momentum.

Rats clinch first-up win Ararat is off to a flyer in Wimmera Netball Association after scoring a comprehensive win over Stawell in a season-opening contest on the courts at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval.

Ararat comprehensively won the A Grade clash 56-31 and will now draw up battle plans for a second-round indoor encounter with Horsham Saints on April 28.

Ararat established a five-goal margin by quarter time and further extended the lead to 11 by the main break. It then maintained the advantage as scoring opportunities opened further in the second half.

Midcourt dasher Kate Bligh featured prominently in the win, as did four-quarter defender Krystal Fisher.

Veteran Megan Shea also showed why she is set to continue to have a say in Wimmera netball, sinking 37 goals at 72 percent while swapping between shooting roles.

Others in action for the Rats were Tayla Borrelli, playing alongside Shea, Jess Williamson, sharing midcourt duties with Bligh, Monique Scott, Racquel Scott and Lauren Armstrong.

The Warriors found themselves trying to make up ground and find a winning formula with Dakota Cosson, Kasey Mornane and Jemma Clarkson sharing shooting roles and other players shifting between positions during the contest.

Others in the game for Stawell included Jade Cross, Tarnee Orr, Rachel Wood, Lisa Fleming, Ebony Summers and Tessa O’Callaghan.

Stawell will have a lengthy wait for its next game, against Nhill at Central Park on May 5.

rarat will elevate its guns to line up a target further to the north-west in Wimmera Football League later this month after recording one of its best starts to a season in years.

The Rats are scheduled to take on Horsham Saints in a round-two road trip to Coughlin Park on April 28 after scoring a comprehensive Good Friday win against Stawell.

Ararat was too good for the visiting Warriors in the one-off season opener at Alexandra Oval, running away with the contest to win by 83 points.

It was a big seven-goal second quarter that established a winning break for the Rats, who had been on the hunt for a profound start to the season in efforts to break free of a growing threat of mediocrity.

Players such as Jake Williamson, on the ball, Jack Ganley, Tyler Cronin and Zach Louder all played integral roles in the victory and Ben Free and Cooper Heard kicked three goals each.

The clash, the only football fixture in the region, attracted a big crowd, estimated to be in the several thousands, with many coming to watch former St Kilda star Leigh Montagna play in a one-off game in the red and white.

Montagna showed patches of the class that won him an expansive reputation in the AFL and also kicked a goal.

Stawell, meanwhile, will now have five weeks to regroup until finally getting back into homeand-away action in a home game against Nhill on May 5. The Warriors, as well as having to

WINNERS ARE GRINNERS: 2018 Stawell Gift winners Jacob Despard and Elizabeth Forsyth celebrate their success.

Interstate success at Stawell Gift R

unners from opposite ends of the country are celebrating wins in Australia’s richest footrace after wowing a big Central Park crowd with their performances at this year’s Stawell Gift carnival.

Tasmanian Jacob Despard claimed the Stawell Gift and Queenslander and fellow 21-year-old Elizabeth Forsyth clinched a Stawell Women’s Gift.

Despard, running off 4.5 metres, was favourite for the final, having recorded the fastest time of 12.214 seconds in heats on Saturday and 12.236 in his semi-final.

He eventually won the final in a time of 12.121 from Hamish Adams, 12.212, and Gary Fenegan, 12.294. Reigning champion Matt Rizzo was fourth.

Forsyth, off seven metres, stormed home on the grass track to win the Women’s Gift in 13.685.

She hit the tape ahead of Pam Austin, 13.964, and Stephanie Jinks, 13.971.

Forsyth, who had a dramatic tumble after crossing the line in the final, said after the race that she could not believe she had won.

“I really didn’t think it would happen. I am beyond happy to be the Stawell Gift winner, it is the greatest achievement of my athletics career so far and I imagine it may just be for the rest of my life,” she said.

The Griffith University sports science student was running in her second Stawell carnival.

Despard has been training under coach Scott Rowsell since moving to Melbourne less than six months ago.

“I just moved out of home and that’s a big expense, I’ll save some but I love cars, so I might put a bit of prize money into my car,” he said.

“This is the sixth time I’ve been to Stawell. I was originally in the team when Andrew Robinson won and that fired me up, then in 2015 I made the semis but lost to Murray Goodwin who went on to win. This is a fantastic next step in my athletics career.”

Defending title

Despard said he planned to return to defend his title next year and would continue to return.

“Short term I will fly to the Bunbury Gift in Western Australia next month with some of the Commonwealth Games athletes coming so that will be competitive. Then for the next 12 months I will be really pushing for the Australian team,” he said.

Both runners pocketed $40,000 for their respective wins.

Carnival racing was far from confined to the gift events.

Runners, ranging from national professionals to Little Athletics youngsters, competed in a variety of events in sprint, middle and long distance events across three days of competition.

Bibby in elite company The meteoric rise of Warracknabeal basketball export Chloe Bibby, 19, shows little sign of slowing after she took part in one of the sport’s most elite competition finals.

Bibby, a freshman or first-year student at Mississippi State University was part of a National Collegiate Athletic Association women’s championship thriller on Monday.

In a match that determined the best female collegiate team in the United States, Notre Dame Fighting Irish beat Mississippi State Bulldogs 61-58 on the buzzer in the grand final at Columbus, Ohio.

Bibby had only a minute of court-time in the finale and generally played off the bench for a powerful Bulldogs team this season. But to be anywhere near the game’s elite level in her first college year was a rare achievement.

A forward, Bibby shot 146 points for an averWednesday, April 4, 2018

age of 3.9 in the 505 minutes she played in her 2017-18 NCAA division-one season.

Mississippi State entered the Final Four playoffs as favourite to win the championship.

Bibby’s parents Leigh-anne and Adrian flew to the United States and watched the action from the stands.

Family, friends and supporters in Australia have followed her progress in the heady world of elite American sport online.

Bibby quickly rose to prominence in Wimmera sport and was soon living in Melbourne, representing Australia in junior representative basketball teams and rubbing shoulders with emerging talent from across Australia and around the globe.

Apart from playing basketball, Bibby plans to become a midwife.
