Horsham District league chair Na than Neumann said with only one board member having served prior to the previous finals series in 2019, it had been a ‘huge learning curve’. Clubs will cater the event but the league is responsible for all other aspects – from managing gates and parking to presentations and present ers throughout the day. “We are really looking forward to having the grand final back up and running,” Mr Neumann said. “The series so far has been very successful and we’re very happy with how it has run. We’re anticipating the grand final will be no different.” Wimmera league’s preliminary fi nals on Sunday at Anzac Park, War racknabeal, will determine the final draw for September 17.

Healthcare in spotlight

A State Government healthcare train ing initiative will complement a cam paign to ease workforce shortages and support wellbeing across the Wim mera. Grampians Health chief nursing midwifery officer Leanne Shea said the government’s plan for more than 10,000 students undertaking nurs ing or midwifery undergraduate stud ies at no cost, and its offer of scholar ships for postgraduate studies in areas of need including intensive care, can cer care, paediatrics and nurse prac titioner specialities, would open new opportunities for workforce training andMsparticipation.SheasaidGrampians Health of fered ‘significant’ clinical placement opportunities for nursing students. It offered 30,000 clinical placement days across all sites – inclusive of undergraduate nurses completing a Bachelor degree, and those doing their Diploma of Nursing – during 2021. Ms Shea said Grampians Health would continue to expand its Reg istered Undergraduate Student of Nursing, RUSON, and Registered Undergraduate Student of Midwifery, RUSOM, program – offering under graduate students work while study ing. Chief people officer Claire Woods said peer support programs, food pro grams and an Employee Assistance program, EAP, were among wellbeing initiatives to support staff. They were identified as solutions through staff consultation.“Wehave implemented initiatives that are designed to have a lasting impact and benefit our staff across Grampians Health, to reduce the risk of adverse mental health and traumarelated issues,” Ms Woods said. She said the government announce ments last week were ‘excellent’ in centive to join the healthcare work force.“Now, more than ever, we’re taking steps to look after our people’s well being,” she said. “Our people are our greatest asset, and COVID has shown us the calibre of team members who are dedicated to providing care to our community. “This care extends to caring for their colleagues and making Grampians Health a great place to work.” Workforce recruitment, training and development are among priorities of the organisation’s Clinical Services Plan, released last month.
Inspector tasked with equality plan
Horsham’s police inspector has played a key role in the de velopment of a statewide gender equality initiative. Di Thomson led a team involved in developing the ‘Equal, Safe and Strong: Victoria Police Gender Equal ity Action Plan 2022-24’. The 29-action plan is part of a suite of initiatives to achieve transforma tional change and sustainable gender equality in policing by 2030. It aims to build capability of leaders to create safe, respectful and inclusive workplaces and strengthen response to gendered workplace harm. As a defined entity, Victoria Police must have an action plan, with the en dorsement of the Commission Gender Equality, under the Gender Equality Act. Recommendations of a Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission report into sex discrimi nation and sexual harassment within Victoria Police also guided the plan. “Very sadly, that harm is ongoing,” Inspector Thomson said. “There’s a lot of education that has to take place. There’s a lot of under standing of blind privilege, there’s a lot of understanding of backlash – and those things are complex in an organi sation that was created by men, for men, to deal with men.” Inspector Thomson said the action plan set a strategy for Victoria Police statewide, with the opportunity for localised actions relevant to the op portunities and challenges within divi sions and regions. Victoria Police will report to the Commission on ‘meaningful progress’ every two years. The plan recognises that women continue to experience gendered workplace harm but the majority do not feel safe to report it; that men are overrepresented in leadership posi tions and opportunities for career advancement; that a quarter of the workforce statewide believes recruit ment and promotion decisions are merit-based; and there is a signifi cant overrepresentation of women in

We are very much a reactive organisation – we respond to crime, we respond to harm, we respond to community needs. But we also have to look at ourselves and reflect,” Inspec tor Thomson said. “We have to take time to do that, otherwise there will be no change.” The plan lists benefits including a safer workplace for all genders; en hanced productivity and innovation from diverse and inclusive teams –including full access to a talent pool; and strengthening community trust in responding to gendered violence and that perpetrators are held to account.

Horsham’s Church of Christ wants to build community awareness of mental health. It will host guest speakers and offer resources to people across two sessions tomorrow for RU OK? Day. The national initiative calls on people to have meaningful conversations when they identify someone they know is struggling. Church representative Joanne Harries said sessions at 2pm and 7pm would reit erate the message that meaningful conver sations could change lives. She welcomed the broader community to“Onattend.this day, we are expanding the perspective to look at mental health and services, both local and general,” she said. “We’re going to hear from individuals with their own experiences of mental health and Warracknabeal’sillness.”
All initiatives, by their nature, serve to raise awareness and money to offer prevention or early intervention strate gies, to combat and manage illness, and to provide support for those with a positive diagnoses. It’s only natural, in more recent times, that a focus has turned to re sponding to a worldwide pandemic. But these illnesses, and many more, have continued to impact people’s lives.Acheck-up might have been forgot ten, or foregone with restrictions or challenges in attending appointments; or the signs and symptoms are simply not known. It all starts with education and awareness. And it’s time to get back into routine and back on track. The best time to book a check-up is now.
After two years of significant disruption to ‘routine’ test ing and check-ups, accessibility and reminders, a series of health initiatives throughout this month could serve as a timely nudge to book an appointment with a health practitioner.

“Our team has been working very diligently to make our mark in the defence arena” – Nick Carthew
GWMWater will continue to release recycled water from its Horsham Wastewater Treatment Plant into the Wimmera River this month. It comes after Horsham received a dumping of 40 millimetres of rain on August 30. Horsham State Emergency Service units at tended 20 requests for assistance during the rain, thunder and lightning weather event. Volunteers put in 52 hours responding to re quests and were supported by Horsham Country Fire Authority brigade. It was the most rain Horsham has recorded in one day since January 2011. On the same day, Stawell recorded 26.8 mil limetres, Ararat 13.4 millimetres, Nhill 28.6 millimetres, Warracknabeal 11.4 millimetres and Edenhope 15 GWMWater’smillimetres.managing director Mark Wil liams said recent rain resulted in a significant increase in water stored at the plant. He said the wet weather release of class-C water – treated recycled water typically used to irrigate racetracks, golf courses, vineyards and recreational reserves – would continue while flows in the river allowed for sufficient dilution per the water authority’s operating licence. Rain at Horsham in August totalled 112.2 millimetres, taking the yearly total to 372.2 mil limetres. This is almost 10 millimetres more than Horsham’s average yearly total and the yearly total for 2021. In the Wimmera, Stawell had the second high est recording of rain for August with 103.4 millimetres. This was almost double the average for August and took the yearly total to 349 mil limetres.AtNhill, 88.6 millimetres were recorded for August, double the average for the month and 62 millimetres more than August rain in 2021. Edenhope’s 2022 rain total has hit 401.2 milli metres after 85.4 millimetres of rain in August, compared with 50 millimetres in 2021 and an August average of 71.7 millimetres. Ararat recorded 82 millimetres, taking the total for 2022 to 433.6 millimetres, 50 millimetres more than Ararat’s average for this time of year. Warracknabeal recorded a smaller amount of rain with 55.2 millimetres in August and a total year-to-date recording of 338.8 millimetres. This was above average and just under double last year’s August rainfall. Mr Williams said GWMWater had developed a water quality monitoring program and a man agement plan to ensure water releases complied with the company’s licence. “We have liaised with the Wimmera Catchment Management Authority, who manage the Wim mera River, and have notified the Environment Protection Authority Victoria,” he said. “Water samples will be taken to monitor water quality during and after the release period.” People can call GWMWater at 1300 659 961 or visit www.gwmwater.org.au/recycled-water for more information.

Michelle Dunlop Horsham Badminton Association “The support of the Horsham Sports & Community Club has been outstanding as we continue to provide a well-resourced environment for all participants new and returning, the future looks bright with many new faces looking to join”
Art Angels will host ‘Every Picture Tells a Story’ on Saturday and Sunday at Stawell Neigh bourhood House. Stawell Salvation Army ministry assistant San dra Pickens helped form the group in June last year with artist Josephine Joynson.
Stawell artists on show
new equipment
A Stawell art group is preparing to host its first exhibition this weekend.
An art display in June marked the group’s first year. “I thought it would be a good idea for the group to display their work,” Mrs Joynson said.
Mrs Pickens said the art display was fantastic and helped to raise the women’s confidence as artists.“For a whole week they also helped to raise funds for the Red Shield Appeal – to support much needed help for our community,” she said.
The exhibition is open at Stawell Neighbour hood House at 42 Sloane Street, from 10am to 4pm throughout the weekend; entry is free.
“It wasn’t long before the women were not only enthusiastically embracing the techniques of drawing and painting, but soon coming up with their own ideas and displaying hidden tal ents they were unaware of,” she said.
Club Manager Glenn Carroll “We recognise that that there are many sports and activities in the community that are not mainstream. Being able to provide support to sports like badminton, table tennis, rowing, cycling, swimming, croquet and many others, encourages people to participate and be active which is good for their individual health and the community in general.”

BY ABBY WALTER Horsham early childhood edu cators are calling for longterm solutions for a lack of staff and facilities to accommodate kin dergarten children. Emerge Early Years Services peda gogical leader Aida Anderson said the workload for early childhood educa tors was “Horshamincreasing.isworking at capacity and it causes a lot of pressure when someone is ill or has to take time off because they don’t have enough peo ple to cover that,” she said. “We also don’t have the space we need for the number of children and hours required for kindergarten.” During the next seven years, threeand four-year-old kindergarten pro grams will expand, with more hours accessible across Victoria.
Ms Anderson said she did not know what would happen when the transi tion occurred in Horsham. She said the current number of staff would not be able to support the in crease.“Atthe moment you might have 45 children in a program, but when the hours increase, with the same number of staff and buildings, that would reduce to 27 children maximum,” she said.“Where would the other children go? “That’s without thinking about 15 hours a week of three-year-old kin dergarten – there would be no room anywhere.“Deployment educators often have to step up into a teaching role, which is a lot of responsibility they are not qualified for because there’s not enough staff already.”
Three-year-old kindergarten will in crease from a five-hour funded kin dergarten program each week to 15 hours a week for 40 weeks of the year byFour-year-old2029.
A location incentive of between $9000 and $50,000 for eligible quali fied early childhood teachers who take up a teaching role at selected services is also available. Ms Anderson said having incentives was good but more needed to be done to improve working conditions. “At the moment it is supposed to be 50 percent of time teaching and 50 percent of time planning – and you have to plan for every child to support them,” she said. “With even more limited planning time that would easily get to a 70-30 split and that’s not enough time when you have meetings, planning, parent interviews and more to do. “We lose a lot of teachers to primary schools because it’s a better system. “The award also does not account for the amount of work that is done byGreenteachers.”Park Kindergarten teacher Alice Clarke said it was good to see investment in kindergarten, but more was“Weneeded.need to invest in people so we can have quality programs and it’s hard to attract people when childhood educators get paid as they do,” she said.“Igraduated in 2018 and at one of our leading seminars they gave us sta tistics that stuck with me – 60 percent of graduates took three years of secure full-time employment and the aver age industry career was four years. There’s a lot of burnout in our indus try and I think people don’t know how much we do behind the scenes.” Ms Clarke said it would be more attractive for people to work in early childhood education if the pay was relevant to the value of the work.
“I moved to Horsham in October 2021 on Department of Education in centives, so it was attractive, but there are still challenges,” she said. “There are lots of staff who are not fully qualified teachers with waiv ers to run programs to fill the staff shortage. “There will be more children in coming years that will need kinder garten that won’t be offered a place because there’s not enough space.” Ms Anderson said the way forward was with long-term solutions. “The issues with hours, staff and buildings cannot be fixed with band aid solutions – we need to speak up for our industry and get long term fixes,” she said.
“I moved to Horsham in October 2021 on Department of Education incentives, so it was attractive, but there are still challenges. There are lots of staff who are not fully qualified teachers with waivers to run programs to fill the staff shortage.”

Ararat Legacy grateful for support Ararat Legacy has welcomed the return of its annual Legacy Week initiative. Legatees sold badges and collected donations in Ararat, Stawell, Beaufort, Avoca, Willaura and Halls Gap last week. President Christine Doak said the group relied on communities to support its annual major ac tivity to raise vital welfare funds to care for war widows across the region. “Legacy Week is our major fundraiser each year and funds raised are our mainstay to sup porting those dependents in our care,” she said. “Even after a few difficult years, we are so grateful our communities have continued to show their support.

“Sometimes surgeons come along and then six months later they leave and there’s a trail of ‘hodge-podge’ changes and it’s just a waste of re source,” he said. “It’s not a stepping stone for me. Horsham is a beautiful town and it’s a nice drive here.”
Grampians Health’s Horsham cam pus chief medical officer, Dr Andre Nel, said he was pleased local ortho paedic services were recommencing in Horsham, filling the gap left by the retirement of Mr Patrikios.
Grampians Health Horsham’s newest orthopaedic surgeon wants to make a difference to the lives of Ballarat and Horsham patients.Ferraby Ling grew up in Malaysia and studied hard to fulfill his dream of becoming a doctor. He completed his medical degree in Dublin, Ireland, and worked in Singapore before moving to Aus tralia in 2008. While practicing in Burnie, Tas mania, Dr Ling began orthopaedic training and completed it in Victoria. He then worked at Ballarat Base Hospital and St John of God Hospi tal as an orthopaedic consultant from the start of 2020 until June last year. Dr Ling furthered his training by moving to Calgary, Canada, for a year to specialise in shoulder and elbow surgery. He has returned to Ballarat with his young family. Dr Ling said he was enjoying his new role and liked the idea of work ing in two different locations. “My wife is a GP in Ballarat and our children will attend school there, so we are committed to the region,” he“Isaid.know of several surgeons who work in Ballarat and also work in another town like Stawell, Hamilton or Ararat each fortnight and they re ally enjoy it. “I’ve always had an interest to work outside Ballarat a little bit and it just makes sense that if Ballarat is home, you tie in all the services instead of having independent prac tices here and there.
“We do pattern cutting, which folds the blades of grass over and you get the lined look. “If it’s wet on the weekend players are going to chew it up, but we’ll go out and divot the oval with coloured sand so it looks better.

A maintenance and turf crew at Hor sham City Oval is focusing on presen tation of the surface ahead of Horsham District and Wimmera league grand finals.Forthe first time the city oval is home to three consecutive finals, hosting the Wimmera league second semi-final on Saturday and the upcoming grand fi nals.Horsham Rural City Council main tenance and turf leading hand David Gove said preparations for the oval started a month ago when the crew kept up its fertiliser program to ensure the surface was green. “On Monday we went out with a liquid fertiliser to keep it looking green for the two grand finals coming up,” he“Isaid.think it’s great to have the finals here. It’s good to be able to work on the presentation of the facility to give back to the community, and it’s a bit of a challenge for us.” Mr Gove said the crew had been mow ing the oval three times a week to en sure there was not too many clippings.
“It takes about two-and-a-half-hours to mow and one-and-a-half-hours to mark the lines,” he said. “Down the track I’d love to have emblems on the oval, but we’re still working on that.

“I think it would be great to have everything under the same umbrella because from Horsham, if the patient has any issues they go to Ballarat before they go to Melbourne.

It is the first in a series of EPs made up of spontaneous prose-style folk songs, written and recorded in a va cant house in Nashville, Tennessee, then mastered on reel to reel tape. Lane’s experiences, in leaving Aus tralia at the height of the 2019-20 bushfires to witnessing his Nashville neighbourhood hit by a tornado, then came the pandemic, inspired the EP. He wrote and recorded almost 50 songs during a month-long stay. People can purchase tickets via www.ararattownhall.com.au; doors open at 7pm for an 8pm start. Indigenous singer-songwriter Benny Walker was originally booked for the date, which is now postponed until next year.

BY MICHAEL SCALZO Volunteers who ensure vulner able members of the Wim mera community stay healthy and fed have been celebrated as part of a national day of recognition. Centre for Participation hosted an af ternoon tea at its Laneway Café With out Borders at Federation University’s Wimmera campus to say thank you to an army of Meals on Wheels vol unteers on National Meals on Wheels Day.Grampians Community Health, GCH, and its community-assistance program, which operates the Meals on Wheels service in Horsham, used the day to put a call out for more vol unteer delivery drivers, after a decline in volunteers during the previous 12 COVID-affected months. GCH program leader Angela Mur phy said the service provided about 230 meals each week, mostly to el derly“Therecipients.servicecould not be delivered without great support by volunteers,” she“Oursaid.volunteers also provide an im portant social connection for clients.” Wimmera Base Hospital prepares the three-course meals five days a week, with Centre for Participation co-ordinating volunteers to ensure the meals make it out into the community. GCH Meals on Wheels volunteer co-ordinator Trish Harris said it took ‘a lot of power’ to get the service moving and on time, with about 280 volunteers every week. “Our volunteers are all great and really enjoy seeing the people they deliver meals to. But we could always do with more volunteers,” she said. “We have had a few more vulnerable people request our meals because they were more cautious about getting out and about in the community.” Reassurance Ms Harris said with many elderly recipients, it was important they knew the meals would come at a regular time and when they needed them. “We provide for vulnerable people who might not have family with them to help. We make sure they can get nu tritious meals every week,” she said. Evelyn and Ronald Smith, new mem bers of the Horsham community, re ceive Meals on Wheels deliveries as they transition into their new home. Mr Smith, 89, is recovering from a triple heart-bypass, while his wife has limited mobility after a stroke five years ago. Mr Smith said after the hospital visits they were unable to leave the house often. “I’m getting my balance back and my strength is coming back. I’m feel ing much better, but it’s much easier for me to have meals delivered rather than having to get around to organise something,” he said. “When I was in hospital, we decided it was best to move into town. I wasn’t able to drive, so having meals deliv ered has been a big help. We’re very happy with the meals.”

Wellbeing focus of Kaniva carnival Wellbeing is the focus of a carnival at Kaniva this week. West Wimmera Shire Council is hosting the Wellbeing Carnival, an all-ages event showcasing support services available to people and fami lies to help improve liveability. It includes workshops, guest speak ers, food and drinks and live demon strations at Kaniva Community Hub on Friday from 1.30pm to 4.30pm. Wellbeing sessions include informa tion on support at home, homeless ness, health, vaping, gender equality, managing money, healthy eating and fallThereprevention.willbe yoga and medita tion sessions, live music and cooking demonstrations.Presentersfrom Wimmera organisa tions such as Uniting VicTas, Wom en’s Health Grampians, West Wim mera Health Service and Grampians Health Edenhope will attend. There will be a pop-up playgroup with activities for children. Information about council services such as maternal and child health, community support and volunteering is also available. The council’s chief executive David Bezuidenhout said buses would run from Edenhope and Goroke at no charge, but bookings were essential by phoning 13 99 72. Mr Bezuidenhout said a West Wim mera Health Service community pro motions grant would fund the event.
In considering the role of chair, Mr Weldin said with a key part of his job surrounding governance, he was inter ested in learning more about the topic in new settings and testing himself. “Nancy Panter, our former chair, has done a fantastic job with EGHS in re cent years and was very welcoming to me right from the start. It will be great to follow in her footsteps and have her support for the balance of her board term,” he said.
“The past few years have clearly been tough, for obvious reasons, but the core values of teamwork, support and focusing on our patients, residents and families are always evident. “I know that the board, as well as the community, are thankful for all their efforts.”MrWeldin is looking forward to meeting staff and the community dur ing his term. “We all want one thing – a successful EGHS continuing our proud leadership in rural care,” he said. “If there are any ideas or comments on that then I – and the board – want to make sure we hear them.”
Mr Weldin has an accountancy back ground and works across external au dit, internal audit, governance, risk and compliance services. He is a partner with accounting firm PKF in Melbourne, having previously worked for business consultants EY, Arthur Andersen as well as time in commerce with Alexander Dennis who are best-known for making the classic red London double decker buses.

Mr Weldin joined the board in July 2021, but prior to this spent five years as a community representative member on the audit and risk committee.

The van Zyl family was among 25 people from 11 different countries who received Australian citizenship at a ceremony in Horsham last month. The council hosted a ceremony for people whose countries of origin included The Philippines, Ireland, Sri Lanka, India, Canada, Malaysia, Thailand, United Kingdom, Republic of Yemen, Pakistan and South Africa. The council officiates about six ceremonies a year, on behalf of the Federal Government, and all new citizens receive a native plant as a gift from the council to mark the special occasion. Mayor Robyn Gulline said every new citizen had something special to share. “As a result, our communities and workplaces become stronger because of the culture, knowledge, skills and stories they bring to our region,” she said. Pictured above are Ilze, Jacobus, Ane and Ronel van Zyl with Cr Gulline, left, and Member for Lowan Emma Kealy, right.

Mr Hunting said he stayed in Edenhope for almost 30 years be cause he loved the community. “In about 1992-93, my wife Les ley and I were looking for a tree change.

Victoria has come a long way since then and women now make up almost half of the organisation’s frontline paramedic workforce.

Yamaha carts available A locally owned and operated family business, BK Carts is the only golf cart service and repair specialist in the Wimmera. Ben Perkin, a fully-qualified small engine mechanic with many years of experience, recognised the Wimmera community was either having to wait or take their golf cart out of the region for servicing and for repairs. With this in mind, Ben, who wanted to be able to work more from home to spend time with his twin sons Deagan and Slater, started the business.
BK Carts sources as many of its parts and products it can locally and has already teamed up with other Wimmera businesses as part of a broad support-and-promote philosophy. BK Carts operates a mobile van that is available to travel throughout the region to meet service demand and sells both new and second-hand carts. Call or text Ben on 0408 268 424 for sales, service and repairs.
BK Carts is now your local authorised Yamaha parts and carts specialist. The business can supply new Yamaha carts, parts and accessories and offers a streamlined service resulting in less wait time for customers needing their cart serviced. “Having the dealership link with Yamaha now means we have a wide variety of accessories to supply our customers. If you can find it on the Yamaha website we can supply it,” Ben said. “You can book BK Carts mobile service van to come to you for onsite service appointments.”

Kia has every intention of pushing the envelope with the EV9, outlining a 44-month development period fo cused around setting ‘new standards’ in design, performance, range, dy namics, technology and comfort. Since unveiling the concept version of the EV9 at the Los Angeles Auto Show last year, Kia Australia has been vocal in its desire to bring the large SUV Down Under – deeming it a wor thy competitor for the wildly popular Toyota LandCruiser. General manager of product plan ning Roland Rivero said Kia’s Tel luride would ‘never be developed in right-hand drive, so you can rule that out’.“However, there is an opportunity for a vehicle of a similar size, but all-electric, to potentially make its way to Australia,” he said. “We’ve put our hand up for it. We’ve shown our interest in it and headquar ters is understanding of our desire. “They know that there exists an upper-large SUV market in Australia, and if you look at the average recom mended retail price in upper-large, it’s actually about $96,000. “Right now, it’s a two-horse race in upper-large, Patrol and LandCruiser, but under the FCAI segmentation, which is really only footprint-based, we could probably throw another product in there within the same price vicinity – but be all-electric.

Mr Rivero said Kia Australia was confident the EV9 would be ‘a five-figure car’ which, if it can hold its own off-road, makes it a compelling competitor for the Toyota LandCruiser and Nissan Patrol. The EV9 will share the E-GMP electric platform powering the EV6 and Hyundai Ioniq 5, although, while power figures have not been con firmed, the large SUV will be carrying a fair bit more heft. Given its offroad testing, hinting at its ability to be capable of touring offroad, a range of 500 kilometres or more is expected – although, it is unknown at this stage.–

Kia has revealed photos of its EV9 electric SUV’s final test ing ahead of its 2023 launch, as the Korean car-maker prepares to ‘revolutionise’ the large electric SUV segment. The final testing phase has seen the EV9 subjected to relentless proving on four-wheel-drive hill climbs and rugged tracks, as well as a deep-water wading test. The EV9 has been tested in various locations worldwide, while the major test program has been undertaken at Namyang R. and D. Centre just out side of Seoul, South Korea.
Pushing the envelope Kia EV9 faces final testing ahead of 2023 launch
“Just judging by the Palisade de mand, the LandCruiser demand, the Patrol demand, there has to be demand for something like the EV9. “If we can get our hands on one, we are quietly confident it will sell.”
Kia tested the EV9 across various high-speed, handling and low-trac tion testing environments, even taking the electric SUV over spine-rattling Belgian cobblestone roads to further refine ride quality.

Toyota says the highly rigid TNGAB platform that underpins the Yaris Cross has been further enhanced by retuned suspension. The two-wheel drive variant is powered by a 67kW-120Nm 1.5-litre three-cylinder petrol engine and dual motor-generator hybrid system to pro vide a total system output of 85kW. Since its launch in late 2020, the Yaris Cross has moved to become one of the most popular vehicles in its seg ment. Year-to-date figures show 4942 examples of the Yaris Cross have been sold in Australia, placing the model in third place behind the Mazda CX-3 and Kia PricingStonic.andmore detailed specifica tions for the Yaris Cross GR Sport will be revealed closer to the model’s release in December.
ACCELERATING: The Vision 7S is Skoda’s first of three EV models to be launched by 2026.
Stawell Toyota
Page 27Wednesday, September 7, 2022 www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au Skoda has given a first look at its new corporate identity and an exciting new design language in the form of the Vision 7S elec tric SUV – a vehicle that will es sentially replace the Kodiaq in the Czech brand’s future line-up. The brand says it is accelerating and expanding its e-mobility campaign with an $8.2-billion investment that will deliver three all-electric models to market by 2026, with more to fol low.Skoda says the Vision 7S offers an insight into one of these models and predicts the electric share of its Eu ropean sales will rise to more than 70 percent by the end of the decade. Skoda Auto chief executive Klaus Zellmer said the launch was a ‘very special day’ in Skoda Auto’s history. “We’re unveiling our new brand identity, including a new logo and CI, corporate identity, update,” he said. “With the Vision 7S concept study, we’re giving a specific preview of an entirely new Skoda model that will round off the top end of our product portfolio and customer base. “Also, we’re significantly acceler ating our e-campaign and will be launching three additional all-electric models by 2026, with more in the pipeline. This will put us in an even stronger position for the decade of transformation.”MrZellmersaid in addition to the seven-seat SUV there were plans for a small car and a compact SUV. A refreshed Octavia will arrive in 2024. The Vision 7S – which is built on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB modular electric platform – will offer a driving range of more than 600 kilometres and a peak charging rate of 200kW. It utilises an 89kWh battery. Skoda says the design language shown on the Vision 7S is new for the electric and digital age and will gradu ally be rolled out across its model range from next year. The design theme is defined by clear, reduced lines that ‘emphasise the simplicity and value of Skoda’s new models’. The front mask is defined by a socalled ‘Tech-Dark Face’ incorporating narrow headlights positioned further outboard and arranged in two rows, one above the other, extending the four-eye cluster to form a T shape.
The DRLs extend into the front guards and form the ‘sharply defined’ upper line of the T, visually framing the front of the car. The LED tail-lights are also arranged in a T shape, their upper line extend ing laterally into the rear guards. The design is repeated on the camera wing mirrors and the sensor door han dles, which are recessed into the body and arranged vertically. The model’s bumpers are made from recycled tyres, as are the wheel arch linings. Seven vertical air intakes are integrated into the front of the car, which direct air to the cooling systems and brakes. There are a further nine air outlets in the rear bumper. The con cept model rides on 22-inch wheels. The cabin of the Vision 7S boasts a wider array of durable, sustainably sourced materials and is configurable for different uses. It includes the op tion to install a child seat on the centre console while the HMI is dominated by a large, rotating central display and interactive door cards. In addition, the vehicle’s menu struc ture and infotainment functions have been streamlined, and the controls on the central, free-standing touchscreen, as well as haptic keys for important or frequently used functions, are particu larly intuitive. Skoda has designed the cabin to of fer what it calls ‘driving and relaxing’ modes, which reposition the vehicle’s key controls for use in varying sce narios. The screens and instrument cluster all move to create additional space, while the first row of seats can be rotated inwards and recline for ex tra comfort and allow all passengers a better view of the 14.6-inch screen. High resolution head-up display, an 8.8-inch digital instrument panel, dedicated haptic scroll wheels for ‘the most important driving functions’ and a reshaped steering wheel are all part of the driving experience.–Matt Brogan

Page 28 Wednesday, September 7, 2022www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au Standardised electric vehicle re charge plugs aside, significant gains are being made in the provi sion of facilities for EV owners to recharge their vehicles. Commercial recharge stations of various types are beginning to appear mainly in larger cities and adjacent suburbs, with a rollout set to continue as government and private enterprise combine to cater for an expected ex ponential growth in demand for such facilities.Whileit might be preferable to have rechargers located in booths, kiosks, service stations, shopping centres, public buildings and even in an own er’s garage, a need exists for many EV owners who don’t have access to off-street parking. Enter Intellihub, which is in the pro cess of using power poles in a trial for street-side EV recharging.
The power pole trial project is val ued at $2.04-million and is supported by Schneider Electric, who will pro vide the EV charging infrastructure and Electric Vehicle Supply Equip ment and manage the charging ser vice. Schneider Electric’s EV chargers will allow for convenient top-ups, as well as overnight charging. Origin Energy will supply 100 per cent GreenPower for the project, meaning all of the energy required to charge the vehicles will be matched with the equivalent amount of certi fied renewable energy added to the grid.
If the trial is successful, Intellihub aims to pursue a wider rollout of chargers to more local councils on a commercial basis. ARENA chief executive Darren Miller said power pole charging pro vided the perfect solution to increas ing public EV chargers.
– Peter Barnwell
“Not all electric vehicle owners have the ability to charge their vehicle at home, which is why we’re excited to partner with Intellihub on this trial that uses street side power poles, pro viding a great opportunity to pair with EV charging,” he said. “We look forward to seeing the re sults of the trial from Intellihub and hope to see it rolled out right across Australia.”Intellihub chief executive Wes Bal lantine said it was expected as many as 10 percent of new car sales in Australia would be electric vehicles by 2025. “That equates to an extra 120,000 new EVs on our local streets each year,” he said. “It’s likely that many of these car owners might be unable to charge their EVs from home. Power poles line most of our public streets and that presents an opportunity for the EV charging market. They’re an acces sible, safe and practical option for EV charging.”About1.9-million Australian house holds do not have access to off-street parking.Power pole chargers take up no space at street level, require no offstreet parking and can service up to 10Thehouseholds.conceptis already being rolled out across the world.

They will get information about charging costs, time limits, billing and other tools for interfacing with the electricity grid. Researchers will monitor how many people use the chargers during the trial and their impact on the electricity network.
The Intellihub Group is an Austral ian and New Zealand-based utility services company that delivers inno vative metering and data solutions to maximise digital and new energy services. The company is a provider of multi-utility services across elec tricity, gas and water networks for residential, commercial and industrial, embedded network and solar metering customers.WithAustralian Government support through the Australian Renewable En ergy Agency, ARENA, amounting to $871,000, Intellihub is in the process of commissioning the first deployment of 50 electric vehicle, EV, chargers installed on street side power poles for EV owners without off-street parking across New South Wales. Intellihub will install EV chargers on power poles across nine local govern ment areas in New South Wales to cater for EV owners who live in apart ments, townhouses or units that do not have access to EV charging on-site.
The trial aims to highlight the fact there are currently no regulatory barri ers to using existing infrastructure that already has power running to it, such as street power poles, and will also help to understand the impact of EV chargers on the electricity network.

Do you ever feel worthless? Do you berate yourself over decisions made, words spoken, or actions taken? I do – and usually over really silly things! A number of years ago, I got myself into quite a state over something I said to a friend. Looking back now, I am amazed that I felt so worthless and upset – my friend knew that I was, at that time, quite shy, and that I sometimes said things to cover that shyness. Looking back now, I also realise there was nothing wrong with what I said anyway! Psalm 139 has been a great comfort to me during such times. Verse 13 reads, “For you created my inmost being; …..” and verse 10 says, “… even there [everywhere] your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.” One thing I am sure of, and which comforts me greatly, is that I am valuable to God. He knows who I am, and He is with me everywhere and at all times. He knows my strengths and my weaknesses, my foibles and my feelings.

Stawell kept its finals berth alive with a win against Horsham Demons in the first semi-final at Ararat on Sunday. The Warriors came out strong from the outset and knew they had a point to prove after losing to the Demons in the final round due to a missed goal after theTheysiren.did not allow the Demons to get a run on and capitalised well to have a 32-point lead into half time. A slow third quarter for both teams saw the Demons decrease the margin, but they were still 27 points down at three-quarter time.

Bellman was set for a busy day with drives in seven of the eight events along with four stable runners to prepare. The team was rewarded when handy five-yearold mare Jazspur made light work of her 20-metre handicap with an easy victory in the $7000 ‘What The Hill’ Trotters Handicap for Ararat owners Gary and Tracey Hull. The next meeting at Horsham is on September 23, also the eve of the AFL grand final, with free entry to anyone wearing club colours.
Tatyoon, on the other hand, earned itself the week off last week after a four-goal win against the Eagles a fortnight ago. This will no doubt have given players with any niggly injuries time to recover and put a strong team on the park. Both teams have star line-ups who showed their dominance at Monday night’s presentation night, with Jaydo Wright, Ararat, taking out the Lewis Medal with Tatyoon’s Anthony Rosarto runner-up.Inother games, Tatyoon takes on Glenthomp son-Dunkeld in the reserves at 11.45am, while Penshurst and Caramut will battle in the un der-16s, starting at 9.30am.

Asuccessful first-up attempt at a junior training camp has fuelled the fire for Melboune Vi pers to make a return visit to Hor sham.Thirty junior volleyballers from Hor sham, Murtoa, Stawell, Nhill, War racknabeal and Warrnambool enjoyed six hours of quality coaching from members of Victoria’s National League men’s team at the weekend. Vipers head coach Josh Cowan said to have so many young people partici pate was ‘awesome’.

“All of them were receptive to our feedback, which made our job so much easier,” he said. “With a strong possibility the na tional league season, from October to December, is going to change to coincide with the state league season, from April to September, this gives us another opportunity to take these training camps to regional areas with the possibility of a February weekend being on the cards going forward.” Cowan was pleasantly surprised with just how much he was able to learn about his players and take away from the“Withweekend.such a new squad this season, I learnt more about my players, espe cially my new players in the four-hour car trip up on the weekend, than I would in our normal training environ ment ever,” he said. “The opportunity to get to know the players away from volleyball was just as important as learning what they can and can’t do on the volleyball court.” An appreciative crowd saw a high-quality practice match between Cowan’s team and the Phantoms pre mier men’s team, which included Volleyball Horsham members Caleb Smith, Tim Carter, Jack Hannan, Jack Exell and Volleyball Horsham legends Matthew Berry and Cam Robinson. “To get that quality of practice match was important for me as well,” Cowan said.The Volleyball Horsham Academy members who participated in the train ing camp will put what they learned into practice as they head to Bendigo this weekend to participate in the an nual Junior Dragon City Tournament. A boys’ team will compete in under17 division one, while there will be two girls’ teams participating – an under-17 division one team and an under-17 division two team. Girls’ head coach Tamikah Dockrill said she was looking forward to seeing how the teams competed against their own age. “The teams participated in the senior country champs against more experi enced teams back in June and did well against tough opposition,” she said. “For them to play against teams their own age should be good for their con tinued“Theydevelopment.havebeenreceiving valuable match play in the local domestic com petitions to get their understanding of playing positions and systems, which has been good for them.”

Burgess hopes to add premiership to award
Emily Burgess’ Horsham Dis trict league grand final week started on a high note when she took out the A Grade best-andfairest award. With six best-on-courts, poll ing two votes in three games and one vote in one game, Bur gess finished Monday’s vote count with 25 votes and a 1.92 ratio. Due to forfeits and clubs not fielding all senior sides in 2022, a ratio system was applied to the vote calculations. The system averages the num ber of votes received by a play er with the total number of games their team was eligible to play during the season. Burgess said it had been a great season and she loved playing for Edenhope-Apsley in her first year as a Saints player. After stints with Adelaide Thunderbirds and New South Wales’ Swifts at Suncorp level, and currently a member of Ma
trics in Premier League, Bur gess made the decision to travel from Adelaide each week to play where her family roots lie. “My dad grew up in the area and this is where my Nan and Pa live, so it’s something I wanted to experience,” she said. “I decided to play country netball this year and try and find enjoyment in netball.” Burgess has returned to her favoured position on the court this season in circle defence.
“That might be the biggest benefit of giving up the job, I think.”
RUNNER-UP: Edenhope-Apsley’s Ben McIntyre, pictured, came equal runner-up Harrow-Balmoral’swithMichaelClosein Horsham District league’s best-andfairest count.
Carey said he did not consider him self a Dellar Medal chance in 2022, despite being aware he played a ‘good month’ of football in the middle of the“Honestly,season. I didn’t give myself a chance. The first part of the year saw some of our outstanding Swifts foot ballers playing really well and I was able to just float about in that period,” he said. “I felt I had a decent period in the middle – but not anywhere near enough to take this award home, that was for sure. I thank the football club for a huge year and I love being here.
Carey said Kalkee would be a ‘chance’ to claim the premiership on Saturday against Rupanyup, but to win they would have to ‘bring the footy they brought to Harrow-Bal moral at the weekend’. However, he said a ‘star-studded’ Rupanyup team was his tip for the title.Behind Carey, McIntyre and Close; Edenhope-Apsley’s Timothy McIntyre and Kalkee’s Simon Hobbs finished with 19 votes, Jeparit-Rainbow’s Jay Kirwood and Rupanyup’s Elliot Kelly won 18 votes, while Jeparit-Rain bow’s Scott Driscoll claimed 17 votes to round out the end of the evening’s top-eight polling footballers. In the league’s reserves vote count, three footballers tied for accolades at the top of the leaderboard in a tight seasonSwifts’poll.Andrew Baker and Har row-Balmoral’s Matt Mutch and Quentin Willmot drew with 16 votes each.There was even representation from several clubs at the top of reserves poll, with Kalkee’s Brendan Hobbs having claimed second with 14 votes, Kaniva-Leeor United’s Joel Wagg and Chris Meyer polling 13 and 12 votes, while Rupanyup’s Ash Teasedale also polled 12. Noradjuha-Quantong’s Da vid Caulfield and Jordan McDonald claimed 11 votes, and Edenhope-Aps ley’s Lachlan Marks won 10 votes.
Emily Burgess
Brett Hargreaves has done a fair bit of work all by himself, so credit to him to get us back playing finals in 2022, as well as all the footballers in our group – I really enjoy playing with them every week.”
Carey a third-time league champion
“This is my first season play ing in goal keeper. I grew up as a goal defence, so have played circle defence,” she said. “Once I was 16 or 17 years old, I was too short to play in the circle, so I played a lot of wing defence and centre, but I do prefer circle defence, so it’s been lots of fun.” Burgess said the standard of the league was ‘really strong’. “What I enjoy about it is that every game is really hard. You never know whether you’re go ing to win or lose, and that’s across the board,” she said. “It was really tight to see who was going to make it into finals, so that standard is really high.” To cap off the season, Burgess and her team are heading to the grand final against Laharum. “For Edenhope-Apsley it’s been a while, so everyone is really excited,” she said. “We need to play a really good game and get through it, but it’s definitely the goal to win.”Jenna Bywaters of Kalkee was runner-up with 17 votes and a ratio of 1.42, followed by Noradjuha-Quantong’s Stefanie Cooper with 21 votes and a ratio of 1.40. In the B Grade netball, Jo Taylor of Natimuk United was best-and-fairest with 26 votes and a ratio of 1.73. Morgan Coventry of Eden hope-Apsley placed runner-up with 20 votes and a ratio of 1.43 and her teammate Rebecca Car ter, along with Kalkee’s Melissa Beddison, tied on third with 18 votes and a ratio of 1.29. In C Grade, Holly Pepper of Kaniva-Leeor United, with 25 votes and a 1.56 ratio, was bestand-fairest.Meghan Pohlner of Kalkee was runner-up after polling 20 votes, at a ratio of 1.33. Laharum’s Rebecca Steadman and Rupanyup’s Emily Hurley tied for third with 19 votes each and a ratio of 1.19. Meanwhile, in C Reserve, Swifts’ Tania Crawford finished top-of the poll with 26 votes and a ratio of 1.73 to claim the best-and-fairest award. Runner-up was Kathryn Ham ilton of Harrow-Balmoral with 25 votes and a ratio of 1.67. Prue Eldridge of Noradju ha-Quantong placed third with 18 votes and a ratio of 1.2. – Abby Walter BY MICHAEL SCALZO Now statistically the equal of Horsham District league greats, Scott Carey has won backto-back league best-and-fairest counts to claim his third Dellar Medal.Former coach and midfield lead er of Swifts, Carey came from be hind during Monday evening’s vote count to poll 22 votes, ahead of Eden hope-Apsley’s Ben McIntyre and Har row-Balmoral’s Michael Close who tied with 21 votes. Carey, who had polled only six votes at the halfway point of the season, drew the umpire’s eye during a blister ing mid-season patch of form, polling five-successive three-vote best-onground performances to close in on the win. A single vote against Rupanyup in round 16 sealed his third Dellar Medal after previous wins in 2017 and 2021. Carey said the win was ‘unfathom able’.He said after relinquishing the Swifts coaching job to ruckman Brett Hargreaves in 2022, this season al lowed him to look after himself, and enjoy his football. “I definitely get to enjoy my footy now and without the coaching job there is a lot less pressure. I can float in the background and just play my role for the team,” he“Asaid.fair bit of effort goes into my football each and every season, with pre-season and training. “So, the big thing about not coach ing is I could have the night off when I am a little bit sore, when previously I perhaps tried to push through.
Under-14s Laharum v Rupanyup, 8.30am Laharum and Kaniva-Leeor United were the clear premiership favourites at the end of the home-and-away season and played off in a semi-final for the first grand-final spot. The Demons defeated the Cougars in that semifinal after a brief-Cougars rally during the second quarter. They meet again in the grand final on Saturday, when the Cougars, you would believe, hope their recent form against an impressive Demons side was no indicator of future performance.

When they met in the semi-final, the Kees scraped a three-goal win – a big difference from the 17-goal margin in round four. Kalkee’s Lisa Fulton has shot 480 goals for the season and will be one to stop, while Meaghan Pohlner has played well in the midcourt. Saints’ Kendra Smith and Paris Hardwick have had good seasons and will be tough opponents.
Best-on-ground:
Under-17s Pimpinio v Rupanyup, 10am Pimpinio made Saturday’s grand final after an impressive semi-final defeat of second ladder-spot holders Rupanyup. The Tigers must feel content they face the Panthers again this weekend. It might be a blood bath, unless the Panthers have a myriad of tricks up their sleeves – tricks they had kept secret until now. Reserves Noradjuha-Quantong v Rupanyup, noon Noradjuha-Quantong surprised many when it found another gear against Rupanyup dur ing its semi-final encounter and topped the Panthers by 10 points. It was a deviation from its single home-and-away match-up re sult when the Panthers stole the game before half time. The Bombers meet the Panthers again on Saturday so it might be a coinflip as to what version of each side turns up on the day.

Settling in: Laharum’s midcourt is strong and while having Sacha McDonald in goal attack changes up the Saints in that space, I think if Laharum gets a jump in early, it could put the pressure on. Edenhope-Apsley appears to ease its way into the game, but always look in control and step up when needed. While everyone is settling into the game, though, that could be when Laharum capitalise. Standouts: You can’t go past the defence of Bernhardt and Burgess. With McDonald down the other end that’s good for the team, too. I hope the pressure doesn’t get to them because after where they have played, there is a lot, but they are handling it well so far. They just lift, the whole team. From the sidelines: When we played both Edenhope-Apsley and Laharum in the weeks lead ing into finals we said they would be the grand final match-up. They are the two sides that will battle it out and it will hopefully be a good game. I wouldn’t write Laharum off – it’s going to be great to watch. Olivia Jones Olivia Jones is preparing to play in her first grand final for Laharum and is excited for the challenge it is sure to bring. Jones signed with the Demons in 2020, but an abandoned season meant she did not don the navy and red until 2021 in a season that Laharum went undefeated but when no finals were played. Jones had an outstanding season re gardless, winning the league’s best-andfairestOftenaward.starting in centre, Jones plays an integral role in the team by controlling the pace of play and feeding into the ring. She said she enjoyed the passion within the Laharum side, adding this year was one of the hardest seasons she had been part of with illness, forfeits and injuries across the league.
Strength in team play Close battle to the end
Core group: It’s been basically the same team even pre-COVID and for me, it always makes a huge difference if you have a core group of players who know each other’s game and play well together. Challenge: If Emily Burgess gets a sniff of some intercept balls, then she is going to get a lot of turnover ball. If those midcourters are de nying her, they’re not telegraphing and they’re not allowing her to come out of the ring and go fishing for intercepts, that goes a long way to the goalies having that opportuni ty to shoot. The goalies, Caitlin Sto ry and Maddie Iredell, have been consistent for a long time. Under pressure: Laharum has had this pressure before. They had an overtime grand final against Natimuk United a couple of years ago to win their first premiership. They’ve been there in the clutch, they know how to play through that pressure, the crowd, and all the adrenaline. Working together: I think these teams have got to where they have because they are teams – individu als don’t win games. I think it’s really hard to call because it’s two outstanding teams playing against each other. I’m looking forward to the contest.
The winning difference: It will be through the midcourt that the differ ence will be made, and feeding into the goalies. I know their defensive end is strong through Bec McIntyre and Ema Iredell, so they just need to play hard as they are going to come against two strong goalies. But if and when they can get a turnover ball, that midcourt needs to look after it and get it into the goal ring.
BY ABBY WALTER Aclose finals series is reflec tive of how tough the Hor sham District netball competi tion has been across all grades throughout the season. Horsham District Football Net ball League board member Sharon Fedke said it had been a great finals series with so many close games. “That’s how it should be. I think we’ve had a pretty even competi tion, not just in the A Grade but right across the league, so it’s been great,” she said. “Finals are about close, down-tothe-wire games because technically you have the best two teams playing on the day and you’d think they’d be pretty evenly matched. “Therefore you’re going to have close competition, and that’s the way our competition has been this year in all “Ultimately,grades.theteams in the finals series weren’t set until the final round. There were still teams fight ing for that last position and it could have gone either way. “Kalkee, who finished on top in A Grade, ended up not even making the grand final, so that shows just how close the competition has been all year. On any given day any team can win. I’m thinking it’ll be the same with the grand final. “I look at B Grade and you never went into a week thinking this is going to be an easy game because every week was super tough, every week it was hard and that’s how it shouldAcrossbe.”the finals series Taylors Lake was the only club not to have a team represented this year. “It’s a great accomplishment to have that many clubs involved in the finals and that’s what we want – we want all teams to be represented,” Mrs Fedke said.
Defensive line-up: EdenhopeApsley’s defence is slick; they play a clean game and the vertical leap on those players is amazing. Laharum is going to find it tough to get the ball past Casey Bernhardt in goal defence and Emily Burgess in goal keeper. The Saints play a clean game and won’t get caught up in a physical match. It’s so nice to watch as they are a polished side.
“We didn’t have our full team until round five. A lot of teams were like that, too,” she“Wesaid.had Erin Mellington away in our first final against Kalkee. We knew we would need every single person and our bench players as well to come on and do their job.”Jones said she was looking forward to the atmosphere at Horsham City Oval. “The whole finals series has been so exciting; your family and friends coming to watch makes you smile and I just think the whole day, regardless of the result – of course, cherry on top would be to win – is really exciting,” she said. “You just have to get to finals and give yourself the chance, and we got there.” “I hope it is a close game. It was four goals the difference a month ago when we played Edenhope-Apsley. We had some untimely turnovers against us early in that fourth quarter, but it went goal for goal once they got that break on us, so I don’t think it will be a big margin on Saturday.”

“I think it’s just great to be back out there after two years of no finals – the crowds and atmosphere has been“We,wonderful.asaleague, could not have been happier to see so many clubs represented in some form across the finals series.” Mrs Fedke encourages spectators to get to Horsham City Oval in the morning to see the juniors at their best.“There’s been some really strong games right across the days of finals and I can see it being no different on Saturday,” she said. “We have some amazing juniors in our league and some of the games they are playing and the level they are playing means there’s been some really great games of netball. “It’s so good to see those kids come through into the senior ranks as well and still play high-quality netball, so I’m really looking for ward to a close day.” Mrs Fedke said in the A Grade the winner would come down to the team who settled into the game first. “Edenhope has some pretty strong players, but again, grand finals can do funny things and Laharum has grand final experience,” she said. “I can’t wait for that game. It’s go ing to be a great spectacle and really good netball to watch.”
The Saints have played in every week of finals, defeating Kaniva-Leeor United in the elimination final by 14 goals, winning the first semi-final against Noradjuha-Quantong by 16 and defeating Kalkee by 14 in the preliminary final.Time will tell if the weeks off have worked in the Demons’ favour or if continuous finals netball will be a springboard to finish a strong campaign for the Saints.
“I’m really looking forward to the chal lenge on Saturday. It’s going to be a good game.”
Sarah Burgess Sarah Burgess has enjoyed her season with Edenhope-Apsley, returning to the Saints after five years away. Burgess played and coached at Eden hope-Apsley in 2015 and 2016 before moving to Queensland. “I moved back at the end of last year,” she“It’ssaid.nice to be back around family and friends.“Ionly played one season while I was gone, so I have really enjoyed playing this year.“It’s good to have ticked off the goal of making it to the grand final, but it’s also scary – Horsham City Oval grand finals don’t have happy memories for me.” Burgess last took to the court in an A Grade grand final in 2013 for the Saints in a game they lost to Harrow-Balmoral by two Burgessgoals.said she was looking forward to making newer, more positive memories at the court on Saturday when her team takes on Laharum.

“I guess they were hammered by some injuries, but I thought they would still make the top six,” he said.“They really did not lose too many players from last year, when they were unbeaten – but the way they lost to Swifts in round 14, when they had finals within reach, and they were in front at three-quarter time, that was pretty bad. I would expect them to make the top six next year, but on face value, 2023 could be similar to this season when seven teams tried to fit into the top six – they could miss out again if it doesn’t go right for them.” Kuchel said Edenhope-Apsley’s Tim and Ben McIntyre, HarrowBalmoral’s Michael Close and Rupanyup’s Mitch Gleeson were all players who impressed him this season. “We knew Gleeson’s reputation when he came across from Charlton in North Central league, but last season he never really took a game by the scruff of the neck,” he said. “He did that this season, and that game he played in Rupanyup’s semi-final against Kalkee was al most the reason the Panthers won that game so easily. “But the evenness of the compe tition in the top half was something that was great to see this year. “While the top three – Rupanyup, Harrow-Balmoral and Kalkee –were ahead of the rest, really, any one in the top six was a chance against each other.”
The Weekly Advertiser spoke to The Shirtfront’s Daryl Eastwell on Kalkee’s route to grand-final victory. The crux of it: The Kees have to nullify Rupanyup’s midfield. Per haps someone like Cooper Price, while undersized, could be strong enough to run with Panthers’ Mitch Gleeson. Gleeson is the match win ner. Kalkee’s experience, Simon Hobbs and Doug Grinning, need to be aware of their opponents and crucially work hard into defence. Midfield competitiveness is key because a defensive matchup on Panthers’ forward Jack Musgrove is tough – he is a slick player – and he will cut Kalkee up if the football comes in quick. Kees defenders are undersized, so if the Panthers get easy use through the midfield, they will be in trouble. Defensively, per haps Matthew Magee to Musgrove, and Daniel Launer to Brayden Ison. Hunting in packs: Against Har row-Balmoral, the Kees hunted in twos and threes, fed it quickly to runners and kicked long to one-onones. Their forward movement was great and the forward handball was a weapon. While Lachlan Exell is the focal point, Kees midfielders need to kick goals. They don’t need to be too pretty with the ball, just move it fast. On the counter: Rupanyup will rebound faster than how the ball came in after a turnover, so the achilles heel for the Panthers could be making them feed it to a stagnant player. If they run and carry you can’t stop them, so pressure on the ball and the leading player is key. Make them chip it, make them turn it over, slow them down and force a sideways mistake. Close checking: You can’t keep Daniel Weetra away from the ball, Kees will have to wear that, but a player on Daniel Schaper could limit their rebound.
The Weekly Advertiser spoke to The Shirtfront’s Brian ‘Cobba’ Cassidy on Rupanyup’s route to grand-final victory. The crux of it: Ninety percent of games are won through contested ball and in their second-semi, Kalkee big man Doug Grinning beat Rupanyup’s Tim Tyler. Once the Panthers’ Mitch Gleeson went to Grinning, Gleeson’s strength became a factor. Gleeson plays like a ruck rover and when he gets on his bike, he is hard to stop. But hopefully Tyler learnt from that encounter, gets a big run-up and gives first use to the Panthers at every contest.

Midfield key to success Fast football expected
Ahead of the premiership decider, The Weekly Advertiser spoke to The Shirtfront radio host Grant Kuchel to dissect this Horsham District league season and the key talking points in the lead-up to Saturday’s grandKuchelfinal.said despite Harrow-Bal moral underachieving in 2022, Kalkee made the most of its oppor tunities.“Yes, people expected HarrowBalmoral to win that preliminary final against Kalkee – most people thought the Southern Roos could have handled them – but the Kees were a Stuart Farr-coached side and those sides always perform well when required,” he “Harrow-Balmoralsaid. probably played its worst game for the sea son at the weekend, but they will be there next year. “Most of their players have re committed and, from some reports, there might be a very well-known footballer on the line next year – on their coaching line-up – but they are being very tight lipped about it.” Kuchel said Rupanyup’s form did not surprise him, however, its con sistency did. “The Panthers have developed their juniors and as a team they have taken the next step. As a club, five years ago they didn’t have an under-17s side – now they have all their sides in finals. It has been an amazing turnaround,” he said. “The first Rupanyup versus Har row-Balmoral game in round nine, when the Panthers won easily, opened my eyes to how good they were. Rupanyup was the real deal from then on.” But he said the biggest surprise of the season was Noradjuha-Quan tong’s fall from first in 2021, to seventh this season.
I would expect some attention paid to the Kees’ Jasper Gunn and Harvey Gunn, as well as Simon Hobbs, too; players who will keep them in the game if al lowed. The Panthers might have to put a player on Hobbs because he could take it away from them. Keeping it moving: The Kees slowed Harrow-Balmoral down, pushed up and zoned them –made them chip the ball around while the Kees preyed on their mistakes. The Panthers run the ball well – the best in the league. When the Kees press up on them, the Panthers can’t go slow. Get it to the outside, run and link over the top of the press. Game-changers: Daniel Weetra is so silky, while Paul Trotter, Daniel Schaper and Daniel Clee are all players who need to sit in the hole in front of Lachlan Exell and then peel off. Panthers’ backline is good enough to keep the Kees to a losing score. Get it in Weetra’s hands and give the Panthers dangerous forwards the small sniff they need to kick goals quickly. Matthew Magee Kalkee swingman and effective key-po sition player Matthew Magee will be an important piece of a Kees-victory puzzle onHavingSaturday.spent time forward during the season, but called upon to shore-up key defensive stocks within the Kees’ back six, Magee was earnest during the Kees’ preliminary win against Harrow-Balmoral. He perhaps has another crucial role to play against either of Rupanyup’s dom inant forwards, Brayden Ison and Jack Musgrove.Mageesaid, however, not only was his match-up for Saturday still undecided, but whether he would start in the Kees’ backline at all, was still up in the air. “They do have two very decent for wards, so it is not decided yet what my role will be,” he said. “I have been playing back, but I could be starting forward yet.” Magee said if he did take up his pre vious role, at the shoulder of the oppo sition key forward, it was ‘not a factor’ for him whether he played on Musgrove or“IIson.might play on either of them. They are both amazing players,” he said. “Jack is great on a lead and Ison is a strong lad, so I am happy to take either if I head back, or neither, if I head down forward.”Magee said the Kees’ backline players could all play small and tall, while they also all had an ability to head forward. “We back ourselves in one-on-ones and we have more than enough size to get the job done on Saturday,” he said. “Against Harrow-Balmoral it all clicked, everything we did was for the team and we played selfless football. “It’s the team first always, and the side that settles early on Saturday and brings the pressure should get the job done.” Player profile

“We just got to the top. But finals are what you play for – in 20 years’ time no-one will remem ber the individuals, but they will remember the success of the team.” • Rupanyup Kalkee, Horsham
grand FinaLS
BY MICHAEL SCALZO Rupanyup, the first Horsham District league grand-final entrant, now has its premiership challenger and the region awaits Kalkee’s September fervour. Perhaps it is not quite right to call the Kees an underdog this Saturday, given Rupanyup also started 2022 hoping it was the season it proved itself top tier. But it is safe to say people might have assumed Harrow-Balmoral, not Kalkee, would be defend ing its Horsham District league premiership this weekend, while Kees’ supporters would have to wait another year. No-one told the Kees players at the weekend, who brought pack-hunting pressure and run against the Southern Roos. However, there have been some lean seasons for Rupanyup members, and after more than 20 years since their last grand-final appearance, the Panthers might have a case to call themselves underdogs, too. If they considered the title, they might have to pry it off the lapel of Kees’ coach Stuart Farr. Farr said ahead of Saturday afternoon, all the pressure was on Rupanyup. “We are excited for this weekend. No-one gave us a chance and we were huge underdogs against Harrow-Balmoral at the weekend. It’s a free swing for us – we have nothing to lose –so while people are entitled to their opinion, it won’t change our mentality,” he said. The Panthers sent the Kees packing in their semi-final and got an express grand-final ticket via a week’s rest and a chance to watch their future opponents tire themselves out against eachTheother.Kees’ 26-point win against Harrow-Bal moral, their first win against the Southern Roos after meeting them twice during the home-andaway season, was a statement of self-confidence. Up against the Panthers’ big-bodied and hard-running midfield on Saturday, the Kees held their own. Farr said the Southern Roos were ‘bigger than us’, but his side still ‘smashed them around the contest’.“Itisabout effort not size. It is a grand-final –so you simplify things. Pressure around the ball, disciple, gain territory, at least until the nerves settle and the sting has gone from the game,” heSaturday’ssaid. game will be Farr’s last game as Kees coach as he steps away from senior football coaching after more than 15 years in the system. It could be a neat way to end his career if the Kees can pull off the win. But Rupanyup coaches Brayden Ison and Jack Musgrove could be thinking about their own grand-final moment. After moving from reigning Wimmera league premiers Minyip-Murtoa last season to coach the Panthers, Ison could be a back-to-back, Wim mera-to-district league, two-club, premiership player. Ison said he was impressed with how the Kees played against Harrow-Balmoral in its prelimi nary final, but still backed his guys to stifle the Kees fast-paced style. “We know they like to play quick football. Farr has always brought that to clubs he has coached. “We know we can’t be reactive on Saturday. We have to be proactive and take that away from them,” he said. “We have more depth, and as they say, squads win premierships. It’s not about expecting beston-ground performances from every player, but if we all do our thing, we can be damaging.”
v
“Hopefully it’s a beautiful spring Horsh am day and we can put on a show,” he said.
Ison said leading by example ahead of Satur day was crucial. “It’s just another game, just with more riding on it. As a coach you have to be confident, not show nerves and lead from the front,” he said. “The club has not been on top of the ladder like this in a long while, so we haven’t considered the possibility of us now being the ‘hunted’.

Rupanyup, after a slow start to the season, was able to pull together a team of champion talent into a finished team – a process Ison said took the club a few early-round games to achieve. “It was a bit of a slow start with some travellers who couldn’t be with us in pre-season, but we learned from our mistakes in the first few rounds and worked out the chemistry,” he said.

One of Rupanyup’s standout players in 2022 has been former North Central league Feeny Medallist and Charlton ruck man-midfielder Mitchell Gleeson, left. The ruckman-midfielder label was no typo for people thinking that style of a utility player rarely exists. The Panthers snared one, and he has been formidable this season after joining them in 2021. With a lethal foot and an ability to con trol the contested ball, Gleeson said he expected to share ruck duties again on Saturday alongside full-time ruckman Tim Tyler, who returned from a collarbone inju ry in time for finals. He said the Panthers’ midfield size, depth and contested ball was its strength, and also its ability to balance its bullocking work with outside run. “We are a big midfield, but we like to find that happy medium where we can use our spread on the outside,” he said. “With guys like Jack Kreuzberger and Lachlan Weidemann controlling that out side space, and with another six or seven guys who can give us all a full rota tion through the midfield throughout the game, and with Elliot Kelly dominating at the moment, our midfield is certainly a strength of ours.” Gleeson said the ruck role allowed him to concentrate on winning the footy, with the certainty he would be at every stop page.“You don’t need to go and find the ball, you are around it all day. It’s an advantage, especially because you end up reading the other ruckman’s taps and you know where it’s going if you don’t win it,” he said.Gleeson said he was looking forward to Saturday, but had not given the game too much thought, yet.

The Tigers are undefeated this sea son, including three wins against the Hoops, but the Warracknabeal team has fought hard to earn its place in the final, with three tough wins and a draw in its past four outings. The Tigers deserve to go into this match as favourites, having not lost a game since the 2019 semi-finals, and will take the field with a wealth of biggame experience; but the Hoops have regularly proven that they can step up for the big occasions. It would be brave to tip against the Tigers’ recent record, but they will still have to play at their best if they are to extend their dominant record.

In the under-16 grand final, Yanac Warriors host Horsham Bombers. The Warriors’ 2022 record speaks for itself, with 12 wins from 12 games, an average winning margin of six goals, and only conceding one goal so far this season, putting them in the perfect position to win their 12th premiership. This contrasts with a slow start by the Bombers that saw them with just three wins and a draw from their first nine games. But four wins from their past five matches have them in their best form at the right end of the sea son. It will take a considerable effort by the Bombers to topple the War riors, but they have nothing to lose and will give it all they’ve got.
The women’s grand final is between Kaniva Women and Horsham Jets. With the reigning women’s pre miers, Yanac, dropping out of the pre miership race at the preliminary final, a new name will appear on the trophy after Saturday, with either a Horsham team claiming it for the first time since 2012 or Kaniva earning it from its first ever grand final appearance. Kaniva has dominated this season, losing just one of its 12 regular season matches, but the loss was to its grand finalTheopponent.Jetsdidnot have a smooth run to the finals, winning just half of their games, with several untimely inju ries contributing to their inconsistent record.Both teams come into the game in good form, having won their past four matches. But for their dominance in 15 rounds, Kaniva is a worthy fa vourite, however Horsham showed in round seven it is capable of defeating the minor premiers.
