50-year countdown H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham’s iconic Labour Day weekend fishing contest is set to track towards a half-century milestone after passing a major resilience test at the weekend.

Plans are already underway for next year’s 45th contest along the Wimmera River, after almost 1000 registered anglers ensured the success of a COVID-modified event.

While a boating package was a popular primary prize up for grabs this year, a car is likely to return to the prize-pool pile next year, as will live presentations at Horsham Soundshell.

Contest organisers were delighted in

the success of a new contest format this year, which means a ‘measurephotograph-return’ fish-catch system will remain.

It also appears likely that the top prize on offer during the competition will again be subject to a random draw of registrations.

This means anyone who enters the competition, regardless of whether they catch a fish, will have a chance to win a car.

Wantirna’s Deb Fischer, who has strong family connections to Horsham, won a $6958 boat, motor and trailer this year despite failing to catch a fish.

She said she had been in the shower when a phone call came through informing her of her win.

“I thought they were joking. I missed the call. I had jumped into the shower and said I’ll ring whoever it is back.

When I got out my husband said I had better go and pick up ‘his’ boat. I just bawled my eyes out,” she said.

“I slept at my mother-in-law’s place and didn’t get down to the river to put my line in until 9am.

“My son got the early bragging rights for catching an undersized redfin, but then I had the bragging rights for winning the boat.”

Contest chairman Ray Howard said

he was ‘rapt’ with Mrs Fischer’s win.

“For years people have gone home without getting a prize. With this system everyone has a chance to win regardless,” he said.

“We’ll put out our usual survey and get a feeling of what people thought.

“We will have a fair bit to analyse but as far as the committee is concerned, what circumstances forced us to do made the event a lot easier to run.

“In normal circumstances we have about 1500 people fishing and we catch perhaps 200 fish. This way everyone’s in with a chance to win the main prize.

“We might expand the prizes based on each species of fish caught and next year we’ll have more time to get more prizes. We were pretty rushed this year.

“As for how we measure, record and release the fish, it’s worked well. It’s a lot less stressful for the fish and of course we want to keep as many fish in the river as we can.

“We weren’t too far off our cap of 1000 anglers. We filled the 200 kids entries no worries and attracted just over 700 with the seniors.

“Our sponsors were just terrific and we came out on budget.”

Junior shortage prompts plea A

BY DEAN LAWSON

Wimmera sporting leader has made a desperate appeal to parents across the region to encourage children to help clubs fill critical shortages in junior football and netball ranks.

Horsham District Football Netball League chairman Fred Mellington said clubs were reporting such a severe drop-off in junior participants that it threatened competition viability.

He said he feared failure to address the pressing shortfall would be so far-reaching that apart from affecting club survival, it would threaten overall communities.

“We have a critical shortage looming in both junior football and netball

and it is imperative, not only for our league and our clubs but also our regional and rural communities, that kids get involved,” he said.

“All clubs in the league have grave concerns, not only about their ability to provide sporting avenues and activities for young people, but more importantly in providing them with a healthy social-development environment.

“We’re obviously looking at club survival, but I don’t need to tell anyone, especially in the Wimmera, how important it is that communities maintain their footy-netball clubs.

“They are the absolute hub for social connectivity and how well a club presents itself usually reflects the health of a town, district or community.”

Mr Mellington revealed that with

little more than a month before the start of the season, only two of the league’s 12 clubs had the minimum 18 players for a traditional under-17 football team.

“We understand the cyclic complications of junior sport and how every year clubs have to work pretty hard to make it work,” he said.

“But what we’re seeing is a dramatic fall-off after COVID-19. The pandemic has done us few favours.

“What we need right now is commitment from the kids and help from mums and dads to provide encouragement for them to participate.”

Life skills

Mr Mellington said country footballnetball clubs went well beyond providing simple sporting opportunities.

“It is a wonderful environment where you learn about life, about team-work, friendship, respect, commitment, winning and losing, decision-making and the value of working hard to achieve goals,” he said.

“We are blessed to have these team sports. They provide just about all the life skill-lessons we as Australians need.

“You don’t have to be a superstar. In footy, the game is designed for people of all shapes and sizes, skill levels and ability. It’s an Australian-designed game for everyone – boys and girls.

“It’s a similar story in netball. We need to ensure we have opportunities for girls to be exposed to competition and challenges.

“It’s not just about sport, these kids go on to be the next generation’s

movers and shakers – leaders – and what they learn from a club and team environment can provide important foundations.

“It is someone we in the Wimmera can’t afford to lose.”

Mr Mellington said the prospect of future development in the region was likely to bring new people and families into the region and it was imperative clubs made them feel welcome.

“The best way for anyone new to a district to make new friends and get comfortable is to join or follow a footy-netball club, especially through kids,” he said.

“In our communities, we all know someone involved in a club.

“Can I suggest to parents, guardians, mentors or whoever – reach out and ask how they can get involved.”

Girls losing locks for cancer battle Murtoa College year-eight students Madeleine Funcke and Emily Moore, both 14, will go under the razor on Friday to raise money for the fight against cancer.

ing targets when The Weekly Advertiser’s Paul Carracher caught up for a pre-event photo.

Emily had hoped to raise $350 and Madeleine $1000 on announcing their project.

Emily said the idea came from a discussion with a teacher.

“I’m a little bit nervous but

I’m also excited. I just thought it would be a good idea to help people,” she said.

Madeleine said her grandfather, who was in remission from the cancer he found out about 35 years ago, was her inspiration.

“He’s pretty happy. He is the one who is going to shave my hair

off for me,” she said. “We need to build awareness and raise money and hopefully cancer is all gone one day.

“I’m not nervous about losing my hair.

“I’ll be happy when it’s gone, it’s annoying me.

“I like it short.”

From page 1 Apart from a long list of randomly drawn prizes in various categories, other major prizes up for grabs on Sunday were for individual species sections for catfish, yellowbelly, redfin and silver perch.

Ray Warke from Ballarat won a catfish category with a 46-centimetre specimen and Shane Lamb from Airport West, the longest yellowbelly at 43cm.

Ishaque Ali from Fawkner had the longest redfin at 32cm and Timothy Brown the longest silver perch at 30cm. All won Engel fridges and wine.

Lakeesha Phillips of Cardigan won a $1500 leather lounge chair in a random draw for a person who caught a fish.

In the juniors, Jack Arnel of Horsham won the random draw for a $450 Nintendo Switch prize pack.

Mr Howard said anglers caught a similar amount of fish on Sunday compared with other years, with catfish and yellowbelly dominant catches, followed by redfin and relatively few silver perch and carp.

“There were more fish caught than we expected. It was a similar rate to other years and water-quality issues many had been concerned about leading up to the contest didn’t really affect the fish,” he said.

“It all went pretty well. We had the odd complaint, but comments were all pretty positive.

“The weather was great and when we drove along the river it was pleasing to see all the happy anglers and campers who come back year after year to catch up.

“A major aspect of it all was that the committee was confident that one of the primary roles of the contest, to generate economic activity in Horsham, happened.

“It was great to give something back to businesses that had struggled with COVID-19.”

People travelled from across Victoria and interstate for the event.

day in Women’s

March Day.

The United Nations states that “International Women’s Day is a day when women are recognised for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political.”

We all have special women in our lives who have supported and encouraged us throughout our lives, they are our mothers, grandmothers, sisters, daughters, best friends and mentors.

The Coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on women globally and locally. I acknowledged that men have been affected too.

Women also provided a greater level of educational support to their children during lockdowns.

The teachers, retail workers, cleaners, nurses and childcare workers who have supported us during this pandemic are predominately a female work force.

Council will host an online information session tonight from 7pm to explain new registration requirements for pool and spa owners.

Our gender, beliefs, skin colour or language we speak should not determine what we can and can’t do. Until we start talking about equality we are not going to be equal.

The Victorian Government has introduced new laws that regulate swimming pools and spa safety.

As most of you will be aware, Council has launched Horsham Rural City Talks – Our Future 2041.

This is about developing a Community Vision for our whole municipality, an image of the community we want for the future.

For this to be successful, we need to hear from the people of our community.

Under the laws, owners are required to register their pool or spa with Council and obtain a Certificate of Pool and Spa Barrier Compliance for the safety of pool or spa barriers every four years.

The laws apply to swimming pools and spas that can hold more than 30cm of water, which can include:

HRCC NO LONGER ISSUES FIRE PERMITS The CFA, Fire Rescue Victoria and Forest Fire Mangement Victoria have joined forces to create a one-stop-shop for all fire permit applications.

The new Fire Permits Victoria website allows people to submit and manage fire permit applications in a more streamlined process during the fire season, and for Total Fire Ban days that fall outside of the Declared Fire Ban Period.

It also includes permits to burn stubble, which HRCC no longer issues.

Fresh ideas for Wimmera field days L

BY DYLAN DE JONG

eaders behind one of Australia’s largest agricultural and agribusiness trade shows are confident an extra year of planning will elevate the event to new heights.

Wimmera Machinery Field Days vice-president Tim Rethus said the cancellation of this year’s March event provided organisers with an opportunity to ‘go back to the drawing board’ with fresh ideas for the 2022 showcase.

“The old-style field days from 30 years ago are not how it is anymore.

We need to make it more time efficient and look at how our displays are set up,” he said.

“We’re in a good position to do this. We’ve had a good break and we’re getting a new manager soon too, which will hopefully give us the impetus to change things up a bit.”

Mr Rethus said organisers were working on a masterplan that would help ‘future proof’ the event.

“The key is the machinery dealers we attract to the event, that they are still the big deal – but it’s not the only thing we will work to improve. It would be a pretty dry field days if that was the only focus,” he said.

“It’s a big community event and there are still aspects that need to be attractive to the general community.”

Mr Rethus said organisers were keen to adopt elements of ACE Radio Broadcasters’ multi-media marketing event, AgLife Digital.

The radio network created the virtual event to fill a trading void created by the field day’s cancellation.

Farm-industry businesses joined The Weekly Advertiser, 3WM and MIXX FM for last week’s event.

“I think it’s a really good fit to have both the physical and digital side of the event,” Mr Rethus said.

“It doesn’t give you the touch and

feel, but the digital side is really good because that’s where people are digesting their information these days.

“People need a portal like AgLife Digital to give them a central place to seek information quickly.”

ACE Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin said AgLife Digital provided an excellent opportunity to maintain some of the key elements of the field days.

He said he hoped field days organisers could draw on elements from AgLife Digital to help with promoting next year’s physical event.

“AgLife Digital has been a fantasic collaboration between ACE Radio and

Organisers lock in Mother’s Day Classic Horsham Mother’s Day Classic organisers have encouraged the community to sign up for this year’s event, which despite a pandemic, will go ahead ‘rain, hail or shine’.

The annual national fun run-walk raises money for breast cancer research.

Last year, the Horsham committee hosted a ‘virtual’ Mother’s Day Classic, thanks to restrictions on gatherings.

Because of evolving restrictions, national event leaders have introduced ‘Mother’s Day Classic Local’ for 2021.

The ‘local’ experience is designed to enable participants to choose their own distance and location.

Horsham committee member Jackie Exell said the changes would allow more flexibility than ever, with a focus on uniting communities across the country.

She said participants could choose to run, walk or jog in their own area with family, friends, work colleagues, school friends, gym buddies and so on, on a day and time that suited them.

She said Horsham would be among the ‘local’ locations announced across the country, where participants could don pink attire, connect with the Mother’s Day Classic community and complete the event together on Sunday, May 9.

“It’s certainly going to look a bit different again this year,” Ms Exell said.

“It will obviously depend on the restrictions at the time, but either way, people can jump online and register now. They can also start tracking their training kilometres.”

Ms Exell said the event was popular in Horsham, with more than 300 people registering to participate each year.

“Despite the pandemic, the community still supported it last year,” she said.

“There were still a few people out there in pink on the day, walking with members of their household.”

Ms Exell said the committee was look-

“In its absence, we have still been able to find a way for businesses to communicate and display their technologies, skills and products to the wider community.

“We realise how important field days week is, not only to the agriculture industry, but to the entire business community of the Wimmera, and I am really pleased to see we’ve been able to keep that feeling alive through this AgLife Digital activation.”

Ararat prepares for vaccine Ararat hospital leaders are waiting for the first doses of COVID-19 vaccines to arrive to start vaccinating the most vulnerable community members.

East Grampians Health Service in Ararat will be a COVID-19 vaccination ‘sub-hub’ and will work with Stawell Regional Health, East Wimmera Health Service and Maryborough District Health Service to vaccinate people across the Grampians region.

Ararat health service chief executive Andrew Freeman said agedcare residents would receive their vaccination first, followed by all staff in the four health services in line with a Federal Government staged vaccination program.

“How quickly we can vaccinate all staff will be determined by the amount of vaccine we receive,” he said.

Ballarat Health Service will be the vaccine hub and deliver vaccines to health services across the region as doses become available.

“We had one last year, which was very successful. We only just managed to sneak it in before lockdown,” she said.

Since 1998 the Mother’s Day Classic has donated almost $38-million to National Breast Cancer Foundation, supporting game-changing research into breast cancer prevention, early detection and effective treatment.

Breast cancer is the most commonly

diagnosed cancer in Australia, with 55 women diagnosed each day. Eight women lose their life to breast cancer every day in Australia and one in seven will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.

People can visit www.mothersdayclassic. com.au for more information about this year’s event or to register. Participants will receive a race pack valued at $30.

Sporting benefits at risk F

rogs are among nature’s best ‘bioindicators’ of environmental balance and health.

These amphibians, despite surviving millions of years, are relatively fragile and with their thin skins susceptible to all sorts of contaminates, threats and predators.

The loss of frogs has long been one of the first signs that nature is out of kilter and that we need to take action.

When we compare this type of scenario to the socio-economic health of Wimmera-Mallee regional communities, a common reference point has been, appropriate or not, the state of football-netball clubs.

Sure, footy culture is not everyone’s cup of tea and some avoid it like the plague, but just like frogs, it has long been reflective of circumstances surrounding regional health and vitality.

It’s what people through generations of tribal or collective instinct have gravitated towards and embraced to feed a need for solidarity and-or to follow a banner.

Throw children into the mix and its role as an important collective cog in rural and regional life becomes even more obvious.

Have successful footy and netball teams and have juniors coming through the ranks, albeit with an understanding that people have many other sporting interests or pastimes, and all is well in many com-

munities. That is why revelations about Wimmera football-netball clubs being in a serious struggle, to not only attract volunteers but now junior participants, has sent off alarm bells.

It is hard to believe, perhaps for anyone who has lived and followed sport in the Wimmera since the 1970s, that the majority of clubs would ever struggle to find junior footballers.

We acknowledge it has always been an issue with some remote and rural community clubs, but not the majority.

To hear that only two of 12 Horsham District Football Netball League clubs have the minimum 18 players required for under-17 football teams comes as a shock.

There are also whispers that some clubs, many of them regional institutions dating back to pioneering settlement days, have attracted only a few diehards to annual meetings, meetings that in the past attracted everyone in a district.

Our football-netball clubs and leagues,

intertwined with evolving circumstances and demographics, have always been subject to change. Some leagues, let alone clubs, have come and gone.

But if the essence of what these clubs represent continues to disintegrate, what do we really lose?

Worried Horsham district league leader Fred Mellington, in providing his personal insight probably hit the nail on the head in explaining what worried him most.

He said club experiences involving team sport provided ‘just about every life skill you need’ and felt it would be a disaster, not just for the respective sports, but communities as a whole, to lose such an asset.

He said junior sporting teams in particular went beyond sport and provided a classroom for life where members learnt about ‘responsibility, teamwork, respect, commitment, how to lose as well as win, decision-making, leading by example, selflessness and working towards a common goal’.

The observation was profound and we suspect there would be many nodding their heads in agreement.

There are plenty of areas in society we have needed to shake from a pandemic torpor.

It seems our traditional winter sports, our socio-economic ‘frogs’, are among them.

Open for comment A draft Northern Grampians Shire Economic Development Strategy and Action Plan 2021-31 is open for community feedback.

A project steering committee, made up of key industry representatives, has drafted a 10-year plan to lift economic well-being and quality of life of the community.

Committee chair Cr Tony Driscoll said the draft was based on extensive research and investigation.

“Findings from data analysis, research and targeted community engagement have been used to draft a strategy the committee believes provides the most benefit to the community,” he said.

“The draft strategy tackles our big challenges and focuses on the benefits of investing in overcoming them. The draft proposes some big targets. Key-performance indicators include achieving population growth, increasing youth engagement in work or study, and growing the size of Northern Grampians Shire’s economy.”

The committee will gather feedback until April 4. A final plan is due for a council decision in May. People can find out more on the draft online at www.ngshire.vic. gov.au/economic-development.

Team walking to give ACE Radio Wimmera team members are busy hitting the track with workmates across the state in an effort to raise money for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.

ACE Radio Broadcasters, with their March into March 2021 project, are also promoting community health and fitness by encouraging staff to pencil in regular walks.

The network is donating a dollar to the appeal for every kilometre ACE Network staff members cover when they go for a walk during March and has a $20,000 target. Staff members record their walks via their mobile phones and link information back to an overall tally.

‘No turning back’ for developers D

BY DYLAN DE JONG

evelopers behind a multimillion-dollar housing project primed to start in Ararat in less than six weeks are confident they have chosen the ‘perfect’ location to build.

An Ararat development group including Max Perovich, Andrew Eastick and Mark Damman, started plans for a Greenhill Lake Estate project, to establish 160 parcels of land, more than 16 years ago.

The developers have confidence the project will support the rural city’s growing industries as well as meet a ‘critical’ demand in Ararat’s housing market.

The project has been subject to planning complications since its inception due to criticism from past correspondence with Ararat Rural City Council.

However, Mr Perovich said the current line-up of councillors and the cohort that served the 2016-2020 term ‘heavily’ supported the project.

Mr Perovich, who has lived in Ararat for the past 30 years, said the development group was ‘never going to give up’ on the plans.

“In 2004 we approached council about this development because we felt there was a need back then for the town to provide a supply of houses,” he said.

“We have spent an enormous amount of time and finances to get this over

Mr Perovich said a trend that arose during the COVID-19 pandemic, with people seeking to move to regional parts of the state, was contributing to Ararat’s socio-economic growth.

the line. There is no turning back, we have to pursue it.”

Mr Perovich said industries such as health care, manufacturing and meat processing were growing across Ararat, making it an attractive location to develop.

“Having a strong industry base that includes workplaces such as the hospital, AME Systems, Gasons and the abattoir gives us a lot of confidence in this project,” he said.

“That means there is opportunity for employment.

“And, its proximity to Ballarat and Melbourne by train or highway makes it an attractive location for people who are wanting a tree change to move to a rural environment.”

Right direction

“Ararat’s real estate has been quite positive in the past couple of years.

Even before the pandemic Ararat was still moving in the right direction,” he said.

“The pandemic has amplified the opportunity. People can relocate and work from home in a rural environment that’s not congested.”

The developers expect a 16-lot initial stage will start within the next four to six weeks after the council ap-

Accolades for carpenter CHS Construction fourth-year apprentice carpenter Bailey Pilgrim of Horsham is Master Builders Association Western Region apprentice of the year.

The accolade means Mr Pilgrim, 20, will represent western Victoria at state awards in Melbourne on May 13.

Officials announced his award at a presentation ceremony in Ballarat.

The former St Brigid’s College student, who left school to start as an apprentice at 16, said he had a passion for the trade.

Music

“My father is in joinery and I went down the trade path and fell in love with it. And I’ll be sticking around,” he said.

CHS Construction director Jason Merlo, who oversees Bailey and the rest of the firm’s construction team, was among a large group of people congratulating Mr Pilgrim.

“He’s a nice young bloke who is eager to listen and learn,” he said.

“It’s great that he has taken a keen interest in the industry and represents the next generation of young builders carrying on the tradition.”

“We are looking to build two houses almost immediately and will see what follows from there,” Mr Perovich said.

He said demand the city created would drive future stages of the development.

“We want to be very cautious and responsible in our approach so that we have a project that’s successful,” he said.

“Working on the project for 16 years, we’re very mindful of what can change and we want to be aware of the market so we can respond accordingly.”

Mr Perovich said he expected the project would span five to 10 years.

Council backs resilience in schools N

orthern Grampians Shire Council will partner schools and kindergartens across the municipality as part of Resilience Project 2021.

The Resilience Project involves presentations and programs for schools to help build mental-health resilience among students, staff and the wider school communities.

The project aims to make talking about mental health accessible and practical wellbeing activities fun.

The project focuses on gratitude, empathy, mindfulness – GEM – and emotional literacy as key elements to build resilience to give participants the tools they need to grow a strong foundation for good mental health.

The council has provided more than

$50,000 for the project from Community Bushfire Recovery Event funding.

Due to travel restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the program this year will be online, with Northern Grampians Shire teachers leading the project in classrooms.

Along with the in-school projects and presentations, each student will receive a free resilience diary.

Stawell Primary School principal Robyn Jones said the funding had been a fantastic boost for the program in 2021 and thanked the council on behalf of shire schools.

“The funding has given all our schools access to incredible on-line resources and the provision of student journals,” she said “We all know the importance of

building positive mental-health strategies, particularly during these times.

“Having the opportunity to once again be part of the Resilience Project gives the Stawell community a chance to do just that, starting with our youth.

“As leaders of our school communities, we are very excited and grateful for this opportunity.”

Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said it was wonderful to have the project in district schools.

“Research tells us that young people can be just as vulnerable when facing issues with mental health as the rest of the population, so we are proud to be able to provide this program here,” he said.

“Having the tools and know-how to recognise the signs and tackle the symptoms and causes of mental illness is a wonderful thing for students to learn”

– Murray Emerson, right

“The other great thing about this project and why council is thrilled to be able to provide support is these lessons are then taken home from school, which then strengthens the mental-health resilience of the whole community.

“The principals’ network has worked really hard to have this program in our area.

“It was a great success when the

Resilience Project first launched in the area in 2018 and 2019, and our education leaders must be acknowledged for their efforts in ensuring local students and families receive these high-quality programs.”

Kealy: Balmoral lobby pays off Member for Lowan Emma Kealy believes ‘tireless’ campaigning to upgrade a school crossing at Balmoral has led to government action.

She said she had been campaigning alongside Balmoral K-12 Community College ‘for years’ to have electronic speed-limit signs at a Balmoral crossing for children to have a safer passage to school.

“I have been working closely with the Balmoral K-12 school community so it comes as a huge relief for us all to finally see the safety improvements our young students deserve,” she said.

“This announcement is a testament to the community’s advocacy.

“Students, families and some members of the general public use this crossing every day. With school returning only a few weeks ago, more children are back to walking, riding and crossing this busy road.

“The school crossing’s proximity to 80-kilometre signs on Harrow-Balmoral Road meant many people were not slowing down or stopping when the school crossing flags were displayed.

“I congratulate the Federal Government for coming to the party with funding as well as the school community for its unwavering efforts for this important safety upgrade when the Andrews government refused to take action.”

The crossing upgrade was among Lowan projects to receive funding through a $2-billion Road Safety Program.

“We now need a more significant injection of roads funding from the Andrews government, which is regularly tardy in funding essential road upgrades in our electorate,” Ms Kealy said.

Gold probe ramps up Gold-exploration company Navarre Minerals Limited has started air-core drilling at its St Arnaud Gold Project.

The 5000-metre reconnaissance drilling program will focus on testing beneath shallow gold workings within a recently granted exploration licence, which covers most historical mines of the former St Arnaud Goldfield.

The goldfield produced 400,000 ounces of gold between 1855 and 1916. Historical workings include the gold-bearing Bristol New Chum and Nelson lines of reef.

Navarre Minerals also plans to drill on its adjacent exploration licence, where the company previously identified gold and silver mineralisation extending for at least five kilometres north of the St Arnaud Goldfield under shallow Murray Basin.

Based on the State Government’s Gold Undercover program, a potential 38-million ounces of gold could lie undiscovered in the ‘Stawell Zone’ north of St Arnaud.

Navarre Minerals managing director Ian Holland said drilling beneath the historic shallow workings of the St Arnaud Goldfield with three drilling rigs was exciting.

“St Arnaud is the second largest hard-rock goldfield in Victoria’s Stawell Geological Zone which, until now, has missed out on Victoria’s gold resurgence,” he said.

Halls Gap planning

POWER OF POSITIVITY: Horsham West Primary School student leaders hope to use their positions as a springboard to provide a positive example for their younger peers in 2021. Year-six students Josh Price and Ilze van Zyl, pictured centre, were elected captains, and Jack Bardell and Willow Martin vice-captains. Ilze said she had settled into her new role as captain and was ready to lead at her school. “We know what to do and it’s going really well,” she said. “We need to be a role model for the kids so when they grow up, they know what’s okay and what’s not okay.” Ilze said she looked forward to excursions and events – opportunities many schools across Victoria missed out on last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Projects primed to attract staff A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

n Ararat health leader is confident future housing developments planned for the rural city will result in greater staff retention at East Grampians Health Service.

Health service chief executive Andrew Freeman said projects such as Greenhill Lake Estate and Chalambar Golf Club development would be a major win in helping to recruit staff.

The multi-million-dollar projects will collectively open more than 260 residential lots to the city’s housing market.

“Those housing developments will make it easier for us to recruit and retain staff, which has always been a challenge of ours,” he said.

“Some areas in particular are always difficult to recruit for, such as midwifery and some of the allied health professions such as speech pathology and podiatry.”

Mr Freeman said the COVID-19 pandemic provided a rare opportunity for the rural health service, with people living in metropolitan centres seeking to move out to regional and rural Australia.

“There seems to be a lot of movement from metro Melbourne out to rural areas,” he said.

“However, we speak to people locally and there isn’t a lot of rentals around.

“Houses are selling really quickly and I don’t think it’s a coincidence with COVID. “We hope out of this pandemic that more people from Melbourne decide to make the move, because we certainly will be welcoming them with open arms.”

Mr Freeman said the hospital would also continue to focus on a range of training programs that primarily focused on retaining staff in regional Victoria.

“The focus of our recruitment programs is about exposing staff to what it is like working in a rural setting and giving them that experience early on,” he said.

“It might not be for everyone, but it will give them exposure and we believe it sets a good path that will get a pipeline of doctors coming back to rural areas.”

This year, the health service recruited four new doctors who will work across urgent-care and aged-care wards of the hospital under the supervision of an Ararat GP. “That’s all aimed at trying to prepare these junior doctors to see what it’s like to work in a rural setting and then hopefully trying to run recruits as registrars back out into the medical clinic to encourage these doctors to try a career in rural health,” Mr Freeman said.

Municipal leaders are planning activities to build the ability of Halls Gap community to prepare for and cope with emergencies.

Northern Grampians Shire Council will outline details for people who live, work or run businesses in Halls Gap district at an information session at Halls Gap Hall on March 17.

Mayor Murray Emerson said the next step of the Halls Gap Community Preparedness and Resilience Project was important to ensure proposed activities aligned with community needs.

“I encourage everyone in Halls Gap to come along to the information session and provide their feedback on this plan,” he said.

“This project is all about keeping the community safe in times of disaster or hardship and that cannot be done properly without valuable community input.”

People keen to attend can register interest online at www.ngshire.vic.gov.au/Have-YourSay/Halls-Gap-Preparedness-and-ResilienceProject and select either 1pm or 6pm sessions.

People can also register by phone on 5358 8700.

Artistic talent to go on show W

BY DEAN LAWSON

immera art enthusiasts starved of opportunities to explore their passion in the past year are counting down the days and hours to the return of Horsham’s annual art fair.

The 43rd Horsham East Rotary Art Fair at Horsham Town Hall from April 13 to 18 will double as a celebration of Rotary Club of Horsham East’s 50th anniversary.

The event, across a week instead of a traditional three days, will provide established and budding artists a chance to exhibit and sell their work while helping raise money for the community.

Event spokesman Chris O’Connor said the pandemic had robbed many artists of exhibition opportunities and the fair had opened a major regional door for them to present their work.

“The fair overall provides a prime opportunity for people and artists to rekindle their love affair with community art,” he said.

“The enthusiasm of artists who have been bottled up and stuck at home sculpting, painting and working on the various other forms of their craft has been very encouraging. They are keen to exhibit and sell their work.

“We are way ahead of expectations in artwork entries and there will be significantly more works on view this year than in the recent past. And artists will have right up to the Friday before the event to register work for display.

“Artists are bringing their work from all over the place.

“We have people who traditionally exhibit their work signed up and there are also a string of newcomers who

have never exhibited before. And they vary considerably. We even have Horsham Makers Market artists setting up on the main stage.

“We’ve been delighted with the response and aim to consolidate connections we establish during the weeklong event.”

Organisers have been keen to reinvigorate the art fair and strengthen its position on the Wimmera arts events calendar for the past few years.

Apart from a tradition of presenting a broad mix of artistic work and genres and revealing talent, insight and interpretation of western Victorian artists, the event has generated more than $150,000 for the Wimmera community within the past decade.

Mr O’Connor said Horsham East Rotary needed to cut costs to ensure the event could raise as much money as possible for Wimmera charities.

“It’s important we continue to support critical community organisations.

Many have done it tough in the past year without the normal inflow of donations generated from these types of events,” he said.

Wimmera business BCH Accountants has swung its weight behind the event as major sponsor and other sponsors have also backed the event.

“We’re very lucky. We are appreciative of them all,” Mr O’Connor said.

“We’ve tried to make it as affordable as possible to encourage more people through the doors. We’ve made it

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

across a week and ask people who come in to pay with a gold-coin donation. We’re appealing for people to make the most of the occasion.”

Unlike previous years, which have involved judges, this year’s winning art prize will be based on popular vote.

The fair has put $750 up as first prize and $250 as second prize. Officials will announce the winner on the last day of the event.

The fair had been scheduled for the long weekend in June since 2017, but organisers decided to change the date in 2020 to September. The pandemic again forced a change in plans.

Mr O’Connor assured patrons that the event would follow all necessary COVID-19 guidelines.

Networking opportunity A ‘Business Breakfast’ series will restart in Ararat this month, providing business owners an opportunity to learn, be inspired and network.

The first event, scheduled for March 17 at Ararat RSL, will feature guest speakers Haley Collicoat from Pyrenees Premium Cuts, Greater Ararat Business network president Maria Whitford and Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison.

Dr Harrison said the series was a great opportunity to support business owners and staff, offering experience, insight and shared learnings across all industries.

“Ararat’s economy is growing strongly, with businesses emerging and expanding and an unemployment rate that has fallen to just 3.6 percent as revealed last week by the Australian Government’s National Skills Commission,” he said.

Mrs Collicoat said she would speak about her journey, offering insights into opening a new business.

“Opening a business in Ararat had always been on the cards. When the opportunity presented itself – we took it,” she said.

“Demand for quality meat soared within the first few months of opening, especially as supermarkets failed to provide customers with what they needed during the pandemic.

“For those looking to pursue their own business, you only need an idea and drive for it to come to life.”

Seats for the Business Breakfast are limited due to COVID restrictions.

People can secure a spot by emailing Phillippa Carins at pcairns@ararat. vic.gov.au by Friday.

Growing skills in the region Ararat health service leaders are celebrating a win in attracting more than 20 graduate nurses who are starting post-tertiary education programs this year.

East Grampians Health Service, EGHS, has hired eight graduate registered nurses and 13 graduate enrolled nurses, with some coming from the Ararat community.

Training-development manager Claire Sladdin said as part of a graduate nurse program, the new staff members would complete a ‘Care of the Older Person’ program.

“This provides the new nurses the opportunity to network with graduates from the Grampians region,” she said.

“Throughout their graduate year they are supported clinically and professionally by the EGHS education team.”

The nurses will rotate through clinical areas such as inpatient unit, urgent care centre, 70 Lowe Street, Willaura Health Care, community

Theatre services return at Nhill

W

est Wimmera Health Service has resumed theatre services after an extended break due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Chief executive Ritchie Dodds said staff members and patients had shared their joy and relief that surgery options were again available at Nhill.

“Their relief is clear, as is their gratitude for being able to receive these services so close to home,” he said.

“It has been a difficult time for so many people who have been forced to wait for surgery to recommence due to the extenuating circumstances of the pandemic and the restrictions that were understandably required for the safety of everyone.”

Patient Kent Goldsworthy said he was thrilled to finally receive knee-replacement surgery at Nhill Hospital.

“I was extremely relieved. Dr Chi Gooi, an amazing surgeon, and anaesthetist Kim Fielke were the perfect team and were supported by amazing theatre staff and nurses,” he said.

“My pre-op and post-op treatment was faultless. I would not think of going anywhere else after my recent experience.

“I waited a long time to have the surgery due to COVID-19, but the wait was worth it.”

Mr Dodds thanked the community for its patience and understanding during the operating theatre’s temporary closure.

He also expressed his appreciation for the many people in the health service surgical team for their patience and hard work during the past 12 months.

“Well done and thank you to our Nhill theatre, acute, pre-admission, allied health, radiography and primary-care teams and of course our visiting specialists,” he said.

“We are very fortunate to have such skilled and caring people committed to our cause.”

Eye surgery and orthopaedic surgery resumed in February and dental surgery will recommence later this month.

In other developments, other visiting specialists will resume regular consulting services at Nhill Hospital in coming weeks.

“Many people in our community will be pleased to know that our visiting cardiologist, Dr Andrew Markwick, and eye specialists, Quinn and Co. Eyecare will be back at Nhill Hospital later this month,” Mr Dodds said.

“It is great to be able to once again provide all of these vital services at a local level and to help people in our communities avoid the need to travel further distances to access them.”

nursing and theatre. Meanwhile, 20 EGHS staff have welcomed a baby into the world in late 2020 and early 2021.

Community liaison officer Jodie Holwell said the new mums and dads gathered for a group photo at the health service and enjoyed catching up with colleagues and their babies.

Ms Holwell said EGHS provided seven-daya-week maternity services for public and private patients, sharing a strong partnership with dedicated GP obstetricians and anaesthetists from Ararat Medical Centre.

She said husbands and partners were welcome to stay overnight for the duration of the woman’s stay, depending on COVID-19 restrictions at the time.

“We encourage women to book in from 12 weeks’ gestation,” she said.

orsham Rural City Council has adopted a ‘Zero Net Emissions Action Plan’, committing to reducing its greenhouse gas and carbon emissions by 100 percent during the next 30 years.

40

%

The plan involves the council reducing emissions by 3.5 percent – the equivalent of 221 tonnes of carbon dioxide – each year until 2050.

Infrastructure director John Martin said the plan provided clear direction for council to reduce its carbon footprint.

“Setting this long-term objective will ensure we can commit to a range of sustainability initiatives, such as the Local Government Energy Saver Program, with a clear idea of how they will fit alongside council’s goals,” he said.

The council has calculated its baseline carbon footprint through a greenhouse gas inventory, which captured emissions data from a range of sources, including electricity, gas and transport.

It has then reviewed the baseline carbon-emissions footprint against science-derived international figures.

The council’s largest sources of emissions include fuel and energy used in transport, electricity and street lighting.

Its pathway to emission reductions includes energy-efficiency adaptations for council buildings and facilities, transitioning to a lower-emission vehicle fleet that might include fuel hybrids, rolling out more solar-energy systems on council buildings and facilities, and switching municipal streetlights to LED lamps.

Dooen Landfill site, which produces significant emissions, is absent from calculations, but the council plans to address this in a separate waste plan.

Mr Martin said reducing emissions from landfill sites required broader community action, including a reduction in the amount of organic waste sent to landfill.

TRUSTY ALLIES: Ararat mayor Jo Armstrong and Ararat RSL president Frank Neulist unveil a new Ararat monument to war horses. Historical connections between horses, Australian military endeavours and the Wimmera and Western District are profound.

The horse sculpture, already nicknamed ‘Digger’, is part of Great Britain’s War Horse Memorial efforts to encourage Allied countries that fought with horses in the First World War to erect commemorative statues. One of the most famous wartime engagements involving horses and soldiers from the region was the charge of Beersheba in Palestine.

TO THE STAGE: Donald musician Danny Walsh is eager to perform for Wimmera crowds later this month.

Live music scene starting to build T

BY DYLAN DE JONG

he Wimmera will be one of many destinations Victorian musicians will travel to in coming months as live music opportunities start to ramp up.

Live-music venues across the region will liven up in 2021, with a suite of performances lined up as COVID-19 restrictions continue to ease.

Not-for-profit event management group Ararat Live musical director David Nicholson said rock singer-songwriter Deborah Conway would be one of many performers who will front Ararat crowds in coming months.

“Everyone we have is high quality, but when you have a name like Deborah Conway on your list, it just pops out,” he said.

Mr Nicholson said Conway joined a list of Victorian artists including Anna Smyrk, Benny Walker and Imogen Clark, who were all preparing to hit Ararat stages later this year.

“Everyone is really keen to get back into it – we’re just trying to help these musicians out by having these shows,” he said.

“I know a lot of musicians have been doing it pretty hard during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“A lot of them have had to work other jobs, such as in hospitality, simply so they can continue to work in music.”

Mr Nicholson encouraged Wimmera people to support live music as it made its return.

“We don’t think of these things until they are gone. That’s why at the ‘local’ people must get involved and support our musicians,” he said.

Residents in southern Mallee towns can also expect a return to live music.

A contingent of Victorian artists have joined

forces to take over live music venues at Jeparit and Birchip for a ‘Keep the Chain Unbroken’ tour.

The regional Victorian tour, organised by Craig ‘Delsinki’ Johnston, will involve musicians performing songs inspired from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s 1972 album, Will the Circle be Unbroken.

Wimmera artists including Donald’s Danny Walsh will join six other Victorian artists for an event at Hindmarsh Hotel, scheduled for March 27, as part of the tour.

Johnston said the tour, which went right across the state, featured a series of ‘handpicked’ regional artists.

“When we put the line-up together we made sure we had at least a few locals on the bill,” he said.

“Jeparit also has an ideal venue and the owner wants to do more of these concerts.

“He saw this as a possible flagship for getting more live events up and running in the future.”

Johnston said the format of the event, which was designed to run under COVID-safe planning, would likely be a way forward for events while restrictions were still in place.

“We’re not playing to audiences of more than 100 people and it’s predominantly acoustic,” he said.

“These sort of slightly alternative set ups could really work in the interim until the vaccine comes and until everything comes back to what we consider normal.”

Rainbow will also get a dose of live music, with country singer-songwriter Pete Denahy to perform for an ‘Old School Sessions’ event at The Oasis Rainbow on Sunday.

Shoulder Joint Problems Is the shoulder joint really a joint? Not really, it’s a shallow cavity with the A/C joint on top. The shoulder has a wonderful range of movement. Think about it, the average person can move their shoulder in a number of ranges of motion: up, down, in, out, large circles and up behind your back, or in your case, maybe not.

The shoulder is supported by 16 muscles and they’re a bit like a union, one out all out. Also, it has close association with the neck and upper back. So, when there is a problem with the shoulder as chiropractors, we often see locked up muscles in the shoulder region, the shoulder joint not moving as freely as it should and tight, locked up upper back and neck, shoulder blade and clavicle.

So how does a Chiropractor help? With adjustment to move the jammed-up areas in the neck, upper back, and shoulder, corrective posture and sometimes massage, you can see a huge improvement. This is also relevant care if you have had shoulder surgery or a fracture in your arm which means you haven’t been able to move it properly. Getting all these areas to move better means that any physio or other treatment, will work better with better results.

T

ypically your forties are a time of established careers, teenage kids and a mortgage that is no longer daunting.

There are still plenty of demands on the budget, but by this age there’s a good chance there’s some spare cash that can be put to good use.

A beneficial sacrifice

At this age, a popular strategy for boosting retirement savings is ‘salary sacrifice’ in which you take a cut in take-home pay in exchange for additional pre-tax contributions to your super.

If you are self-employed, you can increase your tax-deductible contributions, within the concessional limit, to gain the same benefit.

Salary sacrificing provides a double benefit.

Not only are you adding more money to your retirement balance, these contributions and their earnings are taxed at only 15 percent.

If you earn between $90,001 and $180,000 a year, that money would otherwise be taxed at 39 percent.

Sacrifice $1000 each month over the course of a year and you will be $2880 better off just from the tax benefits alone.

It is important to remember that if combined salary sacrifice and superannuation guarantee contributions exceed $25,000 in a given year, the amount above this limit will be added to your assessable income and taxed at your marginal tax rate.

What about the mortgage?

ne Bookings pho 5382 6262 Conditions apply, visit hscc.org.au

Paying the mortgage down quickly has long been a sound wealth-building strategy for many.

Current low interest rates and the tax benefits of salary sacrifice, combined with a good longterm investment return, means that putting your money into super produces the better outcome in most cases.

One caveat – if you think you might need to access that money before retiring don’t put it into super.

Pay down the mortgage and redraw should you need to.

Let the government contribute

Low-income earners can pick up an easy, government-sponsored 50 percent return on their investment just by making an after-tax contribution to their super fund.

If you can contribute $1000 of your own money to super, you could receive up to $500 as a co-contribution.

Another strategy that might help some couples is contribution splitting.

This is where a portion of one partner’s superannuation contributions are rolled over to the partner on a lower income.

Your financial adviser will be able to help you decide if this strategy would benefit you.

Protection

With debts and dependants, adequate life insurance cover is crucial.

Holding cover through superannuation might provide benefits such as lower premiums, a tax deduction to the super fund and reduced strain on cash flow.

Make sure the sum insured is sufficient for your needs as default cover amounts are usually well short of what is required.

Seek professional advice

The forties is an important decade for wealth creation with many things to consider, so ask your licensed financial adviser to help you make sure the next 20 years are the best for your super.

Big wolf

T

he seven-seat Tiguan Allspace will be returning to the Volkswagen Group Australia portfolio later this year and the niche family hauler will be bringing with it a new variant, the Wolfsburg Edition.

Priced from $59,990 plus on-road costs, the Wolfsburg Edition will arrive in showrooms from June, brandishing a heap of extra visual flair and

power over the standard 132TSI – due to reappear in May. That extra flare comes courtesy of a series of black body features including the mirrors, roof rails, window surrounds, lower trim strips and front lower grille trim, while dark window tinting and black 20-inch Suzuka alloy wheels complete the look.

With the full list of standard kit yet to be detailed, VGA has named a few of the key creature comforts available

on the Wolfsburg Edition, including a digital instrument cluster, Dynaudio premium sound system, area view parking navigation and a head-up display.

According to the VGA website, all new Tiguan Allspaces will come with a 9.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system featuring both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Power will come from a detuned version of the Golf GTI’s turbo-

The regular Tiguan Wolfsburg Edition proved immensely popular, now it’s the bigger one’s turn

charged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine good for 162kW-350Nm with drive distribute to all four wheels via a seven-speed dual clutch automatic transmission.

VGA says those outputs combined with the all-paw traction will launch the Tiguan Allspace Wolfsburg Edition from 0-100kmh in 6.8 seconds, while fuel economy is pegged at a claimed 9.0 litres per 100km on the combined cycle.

Given its already high specification, just two optional extras will be available come June, those being metallicpearlescent paint and a panoramic sunroof.

Despite an extended supply shortage, VGA notched up 331 Tiguan Allspace sales in January, 19 more than in the corresponding month the year before.

The latest round of VFacts figures published by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries, FCAI, show the market was up 5.1 percent for the month over February 2020, with a total 83,997 vehicles sold across the country.

The growth was attributed primarily to private buyers whose purchases were up 15.3 percent year-on-year, while sales to businesses fell four percent and government sales were down 13.8 percent.

Western Australia’s 8557 sales, up 21.7 percent, and 18,276 units from Queensland, up 14.8 percent, lead the way for sales growth, with NSW, 27,302 units, South Australia, 5337, and the Northern Territory, 747, all experiencing increases.

Meanwhile, Victoria, 21,027 units, down 8.7 percent, Tasmania, 1339, and the ACT, 1392, all experienced sales retractions, the former of which was attributed by FCAI chief executive Tony Weber to a COVID-19 snap lockdown.

“During the past four months we have seen an increase of 10.6 percent in new vehicles and this has been reflected with strong growth in NSW, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory

NEW MILESTONE: Chinese brand MG cracked the Australian top 10 for the first time ever, with 3017 sales handing it eighth place and a 3.6 percent share. in February 2021,” he said. “The sales reduction in Victoria can be attributed to the COVID-19 restrictions that were put in place during the month.

“We remain confident this trend of growth will continue in an environment where business operating conditions continue to normalise.”

SUVs made up more than half of overall sales at 50.8 percent of the market, followed by light-commercial vehicles, LCVs, at 23.0 percent, passenger cars with 22.9 percent and heavy-commercial vehicles with the remaining 3.3 percent.

The continuing decline in popularity of passenger cars was on show with a

15.3 percent fall, compared with SUV sales and LCVs being up 8.6 percent and 24.3 percent respectively.

As usual, Toyota led the market with 18,375 sales for a generous 21.9 percent share, with a number of models appearing in the top 10 starting with the HiLux pick-up, which was comfortably the country’s most popular model with 4808 sales – a 40.5 percent lift compared with February 2020.

Toyota occupied four of the five topselling spots, with the RAV medium SUV placing third, the LandCruiser 200/70 Series in fourth and Corolla small car finishing fifth.

Mazda finished second with 8332 units for a 9.9 percent share, represented in the top 10 by the ever-popular CX-5 medium SUV, which placed seventh overall.

The top three was rounded out by Hyundai with 6252 units, thanks primarily to the i30 small car which netted sixth place.

Trailing close behind Hyundai on 6202 units was Mitsubishi in fourth, with two top-10 finishers in the Triton pick-up, 1761 units, and venerable ASX small SUV, 1489, which placed ninth and tenth respectively.

Kia finished fifth on 5871 units despite no top-10 models, while Ford’s

volume-selling Ranger pick-up truck was the second-best selling model for the month, affording the Blue Oval a sixth-place finish with 4712 sales.

Nissan was seventh with 3824 sales, while Chinese brand MG cracked the Australian top 10 for the first time ever, with 3017 sales handing it eighth place and a 3.6 percent share.

MG Motor Australia chief executive Peter Ciao said the brand’s value and customer-focused approach helped it achieve the new milestone.

“We are humbled to make it into the top 10 automotive manufacturers by sales according to VFacts, but this is not through our efforts alone,” he said.

“This is a momentous milestone for MG in Australia – and it’s all because of our customers.

“MG is built on the premise of listening to our customers first and foremost.

“Whether it’s about value, or the technology they want in their new car, they are at the forefront of everything we do. Our whole focus is giving value to our customer.”

Rounding out the top 10 was Volkswagen in ninth and Mercedes Benz Cars in tenth, which once again bested German rivals BMW and Audi.

Despite the brand missing out on a top-10 finish, Isuzu Ute’s D-Max pick-up nabbed an eighth-place finish, with 1765 sales marking an improvement of 68.6 percent.

Haval confirms second-gen H6

C

hinese manufacturer Haval has confirmed its all-new H6 mid-sized SUV will be in showrooms within the next three months as the first examples touch down on Aussie soil to undergo their final testing.

Riding on an all-new platform, the new H6 brandishes a chunkier and more aggressive look than its predecessor, with a higher bonnet line and far bigger, almost gaping front grille flanked on either side by a frowning set of headlights.

Measuring in at 4653mm long and 1886mm wide, Haval says the H6 will be one of the biggest mid-sized

SUVs on the Australian market. Pricing and specification details of the new model will reportedly be revealed closer to launch, however Haval’s local parent company GWM Australia has revealed a few key pieces of information.

Under the bonnet will reside an updated version of the familiar turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine developing 150kW-320Nm, which will be paired exclusively to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

In keeping with the segment standards, the choice of front or all-wheel drive will be offered.

Four drive modes will be on offer

for all-wheel-drive variants – standard, economy, sports and all-terrain – presumably altering the parameters of the all-paw system as well as the traction control, throttle response and transmission as in other SUVs. Wireless phone charging, LED instrument cluster, surround-view camera, heated steering wheel and automatic parking will all reportedly be available in the range – likely on the upper-tier variants – while standard safety features will include autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane-keep assist, blind spot monitoring, traffic sign recognition and driver fatigue monitoring.

– Callum Hunter

BIG H: Haval says the H6 will be one of the biggest offerings within the mid-sized SUV segment.

2021 brings three new CX-8 variants

azda Australia has continued the rollout of its new SP nameplate, last week applying it to the CX-8 Touring large SUV as part of the seven-seater’s 2021 model year update, which also sees the addition of the six-seater Azaki LE flagship and some more standard kit across the range.

Adorned with all the same go-faster exterior trim as the other SPs in the brand’s portfolio – unique black 19inch alloy wheels, black grille and mirror caps – the CX-8 Touring SP checks into showrooms priced from $47,790 plus on-roads for the petrol and $54,790 for the diesel, each carrying a $1000 premium over the regular Tourings.

Besides the aforementioned black exterior treatments, the SPs also score bespoke black synthetic suede upholstery, red interior stitching, black trim, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, dual memory function and heated rear outboard seats.

The rest of the standard equipment mirrors that of the regular Tourings, with highlights including LED head and daytime running lights, rain-sensing wipers, tri-zone climate control, keyless entry, 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay-Android Auto and satellite navigation, reversing camera, one-touch

Above that, the Asaki has been gifted a new metallic grille, new front bumper moulding, redesigned alloy wheels and tailpipes as well as honeycomb pattern interior trim inserts.

As is usually the way with a model year update, prices across the board have been increased by between $80 and $1350, with the bigger increases being made at the top of the range to reflect the increase in kit.

Mazda Australia managing director Vinesh Bhindi said the Mazda CX-8 has enjoyed strong popularity as the range evolved.

“Through its life we’ve continually refined the customer proposition, adding petrol and front-drive variants in response to dealer and customer feedback,” she said.

“With this latest update we add some key technology updates as well as two excitingly specified new models in the Touring SP and Asaki LE, making the CX-8 model range more enticing than ever.”

The CX-8 has had a respectable start to 2021, chalking up 1014 sales to the end of February, meaning it actually outsold the bigger CX-9 and occupied 6.6 percent of the sub-$70,000 large SUV segment.

– Callum Hunter

ENTICING: Mazda has updated its CX-8 and added the Touring SP and Azaki LE, making the range ‘more enticing than ever’.

‘walk-in’ access to third seat row and paddle shifters.

Just like their donor vehicles, the Touring SPs are powered by the familiar pair of petrol and turbo-diesel four-cylinder engines developing 140kW-252Nm and 140kW-450Nm respectively.

Drive from the petrol engine – as with the rest of the range – is sent to the front wheels, while diesels channel their power to either the front or all four wheels depending on the variant, with a six-speed automatic transmission standard across the range.

The other new variant being ushered in this year is the Asaki LE which, just like its CX-9 counterpart, cuts seating

from seven to six through the inclusion of a ‘captain’s seat’ second row.

Priced from $69,920, the Asaki LE goes straight to the top of the CX-8 range, sitting $3130 clear of the regular Asaki, which not only nets the unique seating arrangement but a matching second row centre console and a choice of brown or white for the quilted Nappa leather upholstery.

The only engine choice here is the 2.2-litre turbo diesel mentioned earlier.

Headline standard equipment on the new range-topper includes a 10.25inch infotainment touchscreen, 19inch alloy wheels, adaptive LED headlights, heated and ventilated front

seats, heated steering wheel, surroundview camera, LED glovebox illumination and ambient lighting, hands-free power tailgate, glass sunroof, wireless phone charging and a 10-speaker Bose sound system.

As for the rest of the range, the MY21 update ushers in some minor changes here and there depending on the variant, with all grades from the Touring up scoring transmission paddle shifters.

The GT scores the aforementioned 10.25-inch infotainment system, a new gloss black grille design, power tailgate, metal wood interior trim, burgundy or black leather upholstery and wireless phone charging.

Our lives go on without you, But nothing is the same.

We have to hide our heartache, When someone speaks your name.

Sad are the hearts that love you, Silent are the tears that fall.

Living without you is the hardest part of life.

You did so many things for us, Your heart was so kind and true.

But with the love in our hearts, You will walk with us forever.

Christian Devotions

Money Matters – 1 Timothy 6:1-10

They say there are three things you don’t talk about but I would like to add a fourth, money. It is something that has the power to divide friendships and families but also it can support and help others.

I am sure we have all had experiences where we have had a heated debate with someone about finances; this may have even caused a strain on a relationship or even seen one broken. After all doesn’t God’s word say “money is the root of all evil”? Well no it doesn’t, it says “the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil”. As I said we don’t need to look too far from our experiences and know this to be the case but just like many things in life it is how we use it. Notice the word love here, do we love money because in our passage the consequences of this are negative.

There are more things in life other than money that we should strive for, consider more important. When there is over 100 million people in the world that lack a roof over their head, the basic necessities to live, it gives us some perspective on how blessed we are in Australia and how we can bless others.

Let’s see money as it really matters, no more than a tool to pay bills and buy food but also a tool where we can give others not a hand out but a hand up. Money does matter but how does it in our life?

‘Teal’ in spotlight C

BY TONY LOGAN

elebrations for International Women’s Day were at West Side Horsham on Monday afternoon when 50 guests assembled for ACE Radio and Horsham Harness Racing Club’s third annual Ladies Day at The Trots.

The event was in support of the Team Teal campaign – raising awareness of and fundraising for ovarian cancer research.

For a six-week period from February 1 each year, female drivers throughout Australia and New Zealand wear teal pants on the track and every time they land a winner it is $400 from their governing bodies and wagering partners into the kitty for WomenCan and ANZGOG. Guest of honour at Monday’s function was Duncan McPherson, OAM, co-founder and key driver of the Team Teal campaign, launched in 2014.

Eight years on and Team Teal has spread throughout Australia and New Zealand and this year more than 260 female drivers are raising awareness of Ovarian Cancer in the broader community.

After losing his life partner Lyn in 2010, barely 13 months after her diagnosis with the deadly disease, Mr McPherson, with family and friends, worked to continue her vision of ‘making a difference’ and ‘improving the outcome of women’s health’ through research trials and support.

Mr McPherson shared Lyn’s story, stressing the importance of women ‘going with their gut’ if something felt not quite right, the importance of promoting community awareness of ovarian cancer and fundraising for ANZGOG’s Research Nurse Grant Program and Survivors Teaching Medical Students program. Mean-

TEAM TEAL: Great Western’s Kerryn Manning wins heat four of the Noel Smith Memorial Invitation Drivers Championship on Highway To Heaven. while, out on the racetrack, Team Teal’s Kerryn Manning, Jackie Barker, Kate Gath, Tina Ridis and Jodie Quinlan kept the globally recognised colour of ovarian cancer in the spotlight during the afternoon’s eightevent card of harness action.

The girls struck the first blow of the day when driver Gath got the best from a very wayward debutante, Lightning Dan, in a Carbine Chemicals two-year-old pace for trainer Clayton Tonkin and owner Danny Zavitsanos.

Manning kept the ball rolling in the Finn Tack Trot when sometimes-badboy Lord Chancellor didn’t miss a beat and strolled home to score for her father-trainer Peter from Bacardi Jess – Gath – and Indefensible – Ridis – in an all-teal-pants trifecta.

Race three, the #GetRealSupportTeal Pace saw the favourite Yappas Courage with driver Jason Lee sporting the purple and white International Women’s Day colours, prove too strong over the 1700-metre sprint trip

and salute for Mt Gambier trainer David Kemp.

The first heat of the Decron Horse Carte Noel Smith Memorial Invitation Drivers Championship went to the boys, when Jack Laugher landed the smart three-year-old gelding Apieceoflou a winner for Charlton trainer Michael Norman with Just As Well – Michael Stanley – and Fightnfury – John Caldow – filling the minors.

The Hygain Tracktorque Pace was another for ‘the Mount’ with fouryear-old mare Shady Rose an all-theway winner for trainer Steven Fennell and her owners, the Gnotuk Group.

The International Women’s Day purple and white silks were again first past the post with Jason Lee in the sulky.

Lee continued his winning streak in the second heat of the invitation when he piloted the Manning-trained, former Kiwi four-year-old gelding Revitalise to an all-the-way victory.

Owner’s Merv and Meg Butterworth were especially pleased with the win,

Amore Rock with Greg Sugars aboard, quickly put heat three of the Decron-Noel Smith in the bag, after using brilliant gate speed at the start of the 1700-metre dash. The fiveyear-old bay is trained at Haddon by Karlene Tindale.

Team Teal girls dominated the final race of the afternoon, heat four of the Decron-Noel Smith, when lightly

raced four-year-old gelding Highway To Heaven saluted for driver Manning and Terang trainer Marg Lee. Next home was Jodi Quinlan with the Aaron Dunn trained four-year-old gelding Kenya and third money went to I Am Marquez with Gath taking the reins for Shelbourne trainer Col Latter.

Jason Lee was ultimately triumphant in the drivers’ championship series, collecting 28 points to win on countback from second-placed Jodi Quinlan.

Exell in form H

BY DAVID BERRY

e was a key player in Murtoa College foundation boys’ teams and Jack Exell has picked up where he left off after he finished school, relishing his return to Horsham A Grade volleyball.

Renewing acquaintances with the association’s top setter in Nathan Berry, Exell has shone in his Heidelberg team’s start to the new season.

The lithe high-leaping youngster has built a good rapport with Berry over the years, and this understanding has been evident in Heidelberg’s two wins.

“I like the speed in which Nathan gets the ball out to me, which enables me to hit down the line a lot, which is my favorite shot,” Exell said.

“More often than not I only have one blocker to beat, which makes it easier for me.”

Exell’s Heidelberg team fronts up against Jack Hannan’s Volleyroos tonight and will be looking to maintain its unbeaten run.

Much will depend on the availability of both Hannan and Jordy Weidemann for the Volleyroos, with Hannan nursing a knee from the weekend’s Warrnambool tournament and Weidemann committed to footy training.

Shados Inala will do battle with Von Steiger Bloods, in what shapes as a close contest.

The Von Steiger crew were better last week against top of the table Phantoms,

taking the fourth set, so will fancy their chances.

The final game features Phantoms taking on Pegasus, which will be an entertaining contest. Phantoms are teaming well, while Pegasus is still finding its best combination early in the season.

In B Grade, the battle between the top two teams in Von Steiger Shadows and Parma Army will be the stand-out match on the night.

The Shadows have Josh Tan in good touch, while Adam Harrison casts a big shadow on the net.

The Parma Army crew will look to Jess McKeown and Jake Myerscough to negate the effectiveness of the Shadows’ attackers, with their height critical when they play the frontline.

In other matches, the battle between the Gangsters and Barbarians will see one team score its first win for the season, leaving the vanquished alone on the bottom of the table.

Heidelberg Masters should have little trouble putting the Von Steiger Bloods away, while the final game of the night pits the young Von Steiger Boomers against the wily veterans in the Waterhammers.

A full-strength Boomers team will make its ageing opponents play in what will be a highly entertaining game.

Team representatives will attend Volleyball Horsham’s annual meeting at 6.30pm on Monday at Horsham St Brigid’s College stadium.

Combine wins title S

BY DEAN LAWSON

wifts-Great Western is Grampians Cricket Association 2020-21 A Grade premier after winning a best-of-three 40-over-game grand-final series.

The Combine prevailed over Buangor-Tatyoon, but only after the Hawks pushed the season finale into a third game in a big Labour Day long weekend of cricket.

The Combine ultimately proved too good in the Monday decider at Tatyoon after clipping 7-147 from its 40 overs and then bowling Buangor-Tatyoon out for 90.

Captain and opening wicketkeeper batsman Sam Cocks set the foundation for victory with 49, with help from an unbeaten 39 from Charlie Nield in the middle order and contributions from Jamie Bach, 20, Rick Peters and Matt Heffer.

The Combine then crippled its opponent with early wickets and at one stage had the Hawks 3-1.

Association Steven ‘Wombat’ Smith Memorial Medal-winner Heffer, 3-22, Chad Gilmour, 3-10, and Bach, 2-5, were all key conspirers to confirming the win despite the efforts of Jacob Bates, 38.

Early in the weekend, Swifts-

Steven ‘Wombat’ Smith Memorial Medal winner Matt Heffer Great Western appeared set to complete a finals white-wash after a crushing first-up victory against the Hawks, also at Tatyoon.

On that occasion it was Tom Eckel, 49, Nield, 33, and Cocks, 27, who led the team to 7-151, which then crashed through the Hawks for 42.

But Buangor-Tatyoon, at Stawell’s Central Park the following day, bounced back and responded to Swifts-Great Western’s 5-119 with a match-winning 7-121.

Michael Harricks, with an unbeaten 40, Bates, 29, and Tyler Cronin, 19, did enough to force the game to a decider.

Chalambar won a B Grade premiership over Rhymney-Moyston, responding to 6-105 with 2-107 at Moyston Recreation Reserve.

Ryan Bertram scored a gamehigh 48 for the winners and Shaun Smith made 36.

Grand final series – A Grade Premier, Swifts-Great Western Game one: Swifts-Great Western 7-151 (T. Eckel 49, C. Nield 33, S. Cocks 27; J. Phillips 3-18, J. Blandford 2-21) d Buangor-Tatyoon 42 (J. Moody 2-3, C. Nield 2-4, J. Back 2-9, M. Heffer 2-11).

Game two: Buangor-Tatyon 7-121 (M. Harricks 40no, J. Bates 29; M. Heffer 3-23, J. Moody 3-26) d Swifts-Great Western 5-119 (M. Heffer 36no, J. Bach 26no; M. Harricks 2-10).

Game three: Swifts-Great Western 7-147 (S. Cocks 49, C. Nield 38no; J. Phillips 3-19, A. Maconachie 2-27) d Buangor-Tatyoon 90 (J. Bates; C. Gilmour 3-10, M. Heffer 3-22, J. Bach 2-5, C. Nield 2-6).

Homers junior success An unbeaten half-century to Will Goudie, runs to Paddy Mills and a collective effort with the ball steered Homers to victory in a Horsham Cricket Association junior grand final.

Goudie made 54 not out in an innings that included six fours and a six, and Mills 34, as Homers successfully chased down a West Wimmera score of 8-98 at Horsham City Oval on Monday.

West Wimmera won the toss and batted in the under-16.5 clash with opener Xavier Bone making the bulk of the Warriors’ runs with an unbeaten 45 and Lochie Hahne making 14.

But Homers managed to remove most of

the West Wimmera batters cheaply with six bowlers enjoying spoils with the ball.

Homers passed the target two wickets down to clinch the title.

The Pigeons made it through to the grand final by beating Horsham Saints in a semi-final, while West Wimmera won its place with victory over Dunmunkle Renegades.

An under-14 grand final earlier in the day at Horsham City Oval was an all-Homers affair.

Homers Blue successfully defended 4-116 by bowling out Homers White for 80.

Top four finalised in Horsham A

BY DEAN LAWSON

century, a four-wicket haul and a tight finish all came together to determine the final make-up of Horsham Cricket Association’s A Grade finalists.

Noradjuha-Toolondo finished the season as a clear minor premier, West Wimmera came second, Homers third and Jung Tigers secured what had been a swinging fourth place.

Jung Tigers ultimately won a tugof-war with Rupanyup-Minyip for fourth place, the Tigers completing the home-and-away season with a demolishing win over Horsham Saints.

At the same time, NoradjuhaToolondo ensured Rupanyup-Minyip tumbled from the four despite defending relatively few runs.

The results mean flag favourite Noradjuha-Toolondo will start its finals campaign against Jung Tigers in a semi-final at Horsham City Oval on Saturday.

The Bullants have a strong propensity to secure wins from difficult circumstances and Saturday was no exception.

Matt Combe’s first-drop 58 appeared a lonely score in a total of 128 for Noradjuha-Toolondo at Horsham City Oval and the Blue Panthers were in the box seat chasing a critical upset win.

Brent Hudson, 3-10, had conspired

with a string of bowling partners to set the game up for the Dunmunkle crew.

But the Bullants, in response, also made regular breakthroughs with the ball, a combination of Combe, Tony Caccaviello, Jordan McDonald and Brendan Wills sharing the spoils.

Rupanyup-Minyip opener Jake Leith, 37, tried to maintain a chase with help from a middle order including Connor Weidemann, 27, but the team crashed with every falling wicket.

Wills finished with 4-13 and Caccaviello 3-19 as the Blue Panthers were all out for 117 with just over two overs to spare.

Jung Tigers, meanwhile, were celebrating a Brett Jensz century as the Tigers chalked up 4-230 against the Saints at Horsham’s Coughlin Park.

The pugnacious opener hit 110 from 103 balls in a knock that included 15 fours and a six and captain Angus Adams made an unbeaten 52. Amid the flowing runs Aiden Laffy collected 3-43.

Saints wickets then fell consistently, the likes of David Puls, 3-5, and Lockie Pymer, 3-22, leading the way with the ball for the winners.

Only Matt Currill, unbeaten on 39, made any serious impression with the bat for the home side.

Noradjuha-Toolondo is a red-hot favourite to sweep past the Tigers

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER and shore up a grand-final berth. The other final this Saturday will be between West Wimmera and Homers at Dimboola in a game that represents a ‘take two’ after the teams clashed last weekend.

West Wimmera will take confidence into the clash after a solid win over the Pigeons at Horsham Sunnyside.

Homers made only 155 despite the efforts of Chaminda Gamage, 38, Simon Hopper, 34, Paddy Mills and

Luke Deutscher, both 21, and then watched the visitors pass the score four wickets down.

Josh Lees, 3-15, caused the Pigeons plenty of trouble and had plenty of mates sharing responsibility with the ball and in the field.

Lees also shone with the bat, making an unbeaten 42, alongside Nathan Alexander, 53, and Mitch Dahlenburg, 25.

The semi-final under the gums at Dimboola should be a beauty with much depending on how outfits work as teams.

This week: Semi-finals, NoradjuhaToolondo v Jung Tigers at Horsham City Oval, West Wimmera v Homers at Dimboola Recreation Reserve.

Last week: Noradjuha-Toolondo 128 (M. Combe 58; B. Hudson 3-10) d Rupanyup-Minyip 117 (J. Leith 37, C. Weidemann 27; B. Wills 4-13, T. Caccaviello 3-19), West Wimmera 4-156 (N. Alexander 53, J. Lees 42no, M. Dahlenburg 25) d Homers 155 (C. Gamage 38, S. Hopper 34; J. Lees 3-15), Jung Tigers 4-230 (B. Jensz 110, a. Adams 52no; A. Laffy 3-43) d Horsham Saints 80 (M. Currill 39no; D. Puls 3-5, L. Pymer 3-22).

Final ladder: Noradjuha-Toolondo 69 points, 1.25 percent; West Wimmera 57, 1.37; Homers 54, 1.47; Jung Tigers 45, 0.95; Rupanyup-Minyip 39, 1.03; Horsham Saints 6, 0.36.

That’s what it means to us G erry and Ruth McCallum have spent a lifetime supporting football and netball players, at club and representative levels, as trainers in Wimmera as well as Horsham District competitions.

We asked them to explain what footy and netball meant to them –

we’ve never really stopped. Being trainers is like being an integral part of a family. As a trainer you are responsible.

You are a ‘mother’, you are a ‘father’, you’re a ‘nurse’, a ‘doctor’, a ‘psychologist’, a ‘physiotherapist’ – you are everything. We’ve been involved with many different players over our time. Some of the boys have gone onto play AFL.

We volunteer our time to help footballers and netballers – basically for the involvement and to give something back.

Those guys, when you see them down the street, will always speak to you, maybe give you a cuddle.

They are just passionate – they really are.

We’ve been involved in sport since we were very young and

We also see these young people go and do well outside the sports.

As well as going on in footy or netball, a lot of them have gone on to really good jobs and lives and seeing that, for us, is really satisfying.

Being involved in a club and sport is about giving something back. We’ve had our time in sport and being involved is about giving back to the sports we love.

Let’s hope we can look forward to a big year in football and netball after a difficult 2020.

Gerry and Ruth McCallum, right, are volunteer trainers for Horsham District Football Netball League club Natimuk United.

Eye now on titles

H

orsham Motorcycle Club volunteers will turn their attention to the opening round of Victorian motocross championships next month after a successful return to racing at Dooen.

and South Australia. A Bronte Holland Memorial 125cc Cup was the feature event on Saturday and went to Ty Keane of Bendigo ahead of Horsham’s Josh McLean and Cory Watts.

Jazmin Boyer from Gisborne won a Maggie Stacey Memorial feature race on Sunday from Jade Tiller and Brooke Marcus from Mt Gambier.

“We had a good roll up of girls, which was great,” Mr Watts said.

He said pit-bike racing under lights and involving senior riders testing their skills on 110cc machines was also popular.

“It was very entertaining and something we think we can gain some mileage from,” he said.

Mr Watts said spectators followed COVID-19 guidelines and visiting riders, teams and supporters would have provided a much-needed boost to Horsham businesses.

“It would have been good for pubs, restaurants and others who would have done it tough during the lockdown,” he said.

The state titles on the Anzac Day long weekend are a major event on Victoria’s dirt-bike calendar.

Club spokesman Kenny Watts said MX Amateurs at the weekend represented a welcome return to motorcycle racing across the state.

“It was a ripper event and went off really well.

It was probably the biggest amateurs event we’ve had with a good spread of riders and classes. People were really happy to see the motorcycles back in action,” he said.

“It was a big weekend for motorcycle racing across the state with riders in action at Three Bridges on the other side of Melbourne and at Ouyen.”

Weekend racing at Dooen included 21 races on Saturday and 18 on Sunday and more than 300 competitors from across Victoria, NSW

Redbacks bag clean finish

BY DYLAN DE JONG

A

rarat Redbacks basketball team has laid claim to victory in a south-west country Victoria league grand final match at the weekend.

In a tense final, the Redbacks won by 37 points over Portland Coasters in a Saturday game at Colac.

The team pushed its way to the top of the leader board early in the season, without losing any games against five other teams in a southwest men’s 2020-21 Country Basketball League competition.

Club president Casanda Woods said the first quarter of the final gave little indication of what team was favoured to win, with the Redbacks leading 15-10.

“The game did start quite slow, we couldn’t get a shot in for a while,” she said.

“But the players warmed up to the court. It was neutral ground for both teams playing at Colac, so there was no advantage either way.

“However, one of Portland’s biggest upsets was losing one of their tallest players quite early to foul trouble – that would have made a big impact.”

Mrs Woods said crowd support also contributed to high morale for the Ararat men.

TEAM TO BEAT: Men’s basketball team Ararat Redbacks are celebrating a grand final win after the weekend.

Tigers plan reunion Nhill and District Sporting Club will celebrate a 40-year reunion of its 1981 senior Wimmera Football League premiership later this year.

The club will have the reunion at Nhill’s Davis Park on June 26, after a match coinciding with a Wimmera league contest against Horsham.

Long-time Nhill club advocate and Hindmarsh Shire councillor Rob Gersch said the club would send out official invitations to all involved in the 1981 win and their families “There have been many changes over 40 years,” he said.

“Our grandstand has been demolished and Hindmarsh Shire Council and the club have a submission with the State Government for a new $3.9-million complex.

“The complex will include a grandstand, male and female change rooms, additional netball court facilities, along with a double-storey clubroomsfunction area.

“We await with anticipation of a good results.”

Catfish competition “The crowd was big for us. We had nearly 100 people there to support the Redbacks. Portland had quite a good following too,” she said.

“We were also live-streaming the game to cater for people who couldn’t come.”

Mrs Woods said the team’s success boiled down to player’s consistent training under guidance from well-versed Ararat coaches.

“Having a strong team was the key to our success, but definitely

for our coaches Marcus Jenkins and Rhys Burger, this outcome would have been extremely rewarding for them,” she said.

“The last season we didn’t make the final, so it’s been a couple years since we have made it to the top two. It was a longer season last year compared with this season too, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so there was no room for error.

“You really had to win every game and the coaches were quite certain about that.”

EAST GRAMPIANS HEALTH SERVICE |

Mrs Woods said during the pandemic the team dedicated countless hours to training.

“The boys started doing their own training outside on the asphalt court during COVID and when we could return to the centre, they were training twice a week, since about October last year,” she said.

“They set themselves up for a good season with that consistent training.”

Kelvin Robinson landed a 1.155-kilogram fish to win Horsham Angling Club’s Wimmera River catfish competition.

Rod Garth won a senior section with a 1.116kg specimen from Larelle Souter, 0.952kg, and Bill Quinlivan, 0.891kg. Scarlett Abbott won a junior section, 0.852kg, from Shilani Treloar, 0.291kg.

Robinson also had the heaviest bag of carp with 3.1kg. A prize for the heaviest other native fish went to Brad Treloar with a 0.800kg yellowbelly with Scarlett Abbott winning a junior prize with a 0.679 redfin.

The event attracted 32 adults and eight juniors.

The club will now turn its attention to a Glenelg River Pritchards competition from midnight, March 19, to noon, March 21.

Countdown on to tennis finals T

BY DYLAN DE JONG

ension is building for a Central Wimmera Tennis Association 2020-21 final series, with semi-final matches less than three days away.

Teams across the competition’s four grades that made it to the top-four on the leaderboards will prepare to go head-tohead on Saturday following a break over the Labour Day long weekend.

Association president Jeremy Quast said he expected there to be some ‘really close’ matches, with the pennant’s top team Drung South playing a home game against second-placed Horsham Lawn.

“Drung South has been very consistent and playing some great tennis – these matches could go either way,” he said.

“They are the favourite to win – but you don’t count teams out like Horsham Lawn that have been consistent and playing really well too.”

Mr Quast said Kalkee would defend its spot in third against St Michaels, with the winner set to go onto a penultimate round.

“St Michaels will have Jess McDonald, which will really strengthen its side, but Kalkee should have a full-strength team as well, which should make for some really close games.

“We’re really looking forward to seeing

the results on Saturday to see who goes through.”

In A Special competition, Mr Quast said Natimuk, which remained undefeated this season, would face off with Telangatuk East.

“It will just be about who performs best on the day,” he said.

“Noradjuha will also host Horsham Lawn Massey at Haven, and again, that match could go either way.

“In this season, especially the top-four teams in A Special and pennant, anyone could win.

“In A Special, seven teams could have won. Brimpaen, Haven and Horsham Lawn Savage were also really close.”

St Michaels will be the team to beat in A Grade matches, set to play at home game against Drung South, currently in second.

“We’ve got a very clear stand out there – St Michaels has been very strong in the A Grade division,” Mr Quast said.

He said he also expected Horsham Lawn and Haven, third and fourth respectively, to be in for close matches.

Drung South are favorite to win B Special, with Natimuk following closely behind.

“It will also be very close between Horsham Lawn and St Michaels,” Mr Quast said.

Warming up for state championships Horsham Little Athletics Centre members are preparing to compete in a state championship carnival in Melbourne at the weekend.

Centre president Nigel Binney said 17 athletes qualified for the event after a Western Country Regional Track and Field Carnival at Ballarat.

“This is the highest number of athletes to qualify for the past couple of years,” he said.

“This time last year, the state championships were called off and our other competitions have been few and far between, so the kids are keen to experience that next level of competition.

“Whether they do well or not, it’s going to be a great experience.

“We usually find athletes achieve their personal-best results at regional level and go to state and improve their PBs even further.”

‘Shima’ shines

O

ne of the best racing greyhounds in Australia lived up to expectations on Saturday night when it won the CHS Group Horsham Cup final.

Shima Shine, trained in Geelong district by Andrea Dailly, clinched the cup in the $67,000 feature event at Horsham Showground in a time of 26.903 seconds.

It failed to match its track record set in heats a week earlier, courtesy of a tardy start as the last dog out of the boxes, but proved its class and maintained its reputation in a searing run home to victory.

Shima Shine won from another Dailly dog Jax Bale, which dead-heated for second place with Brett Nye-trained Barooga Smoke.

The race is the richest cup event across all racing codes in Horsham.

Shima Shine’s victory took its overall winnings to more than $600,000.

Horsham Greyhound Racing Club manager Justin Brilliant said the club was happy with a turn-out of patrons for the 10-race meeting despite operating under COVID-19 restrictions.

“It went pretty well, as expected. We didn’t quite reach our maximum of 400 patrons but we got very close,” he said.

“We look forward to being able to swing the gates open to everyone to have unrestricted access to the cup next year.

“We were pretty happy with the night. Everyone had a good time and it went well.”

Greyhound action in Horsham returns to regular Tuesday night racing and the club and planning is already underway for a Great Chase meeting in support of people with disabilities later in the year.

Horsham players in squad Ben Hobbs, Horsham, and Sam Breuer and Cody Bryan, Horsham Saints, are in a Greater Western Victorian Rebels football squad of 33 preparing for the 2021 under-18 NAB League Boys season.

They are part of a group that features many players from last year who could not start the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Head coach David Loader said the club was impressed with the squad and ‘the standout quality of the group has been their commitment to the program’.

“It’s been a large process working across our regions in western Victoria and the coaching panel has done an enormous amount of work to get to this point,” he said.

“We believe the players selected in the squad will represent the GWV Rebels and western Victoria in an outstanding capacity on and off the field.”

The squad has come together under match-play conditions in recent weeks and participated in a NAB League Boys Testing Day in Melbourne along with representatives from 12 other regions at the weekend.

The GWV Rebels will launch its 2021 season at Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree C. E. Brown Reserve on April 1.

The GWV Rebels NAB League will take on the Geelong Falcons at 5pm, followed by GWV Rebels under-17 boys at 7.30pm.
