Water drives region S

BY DEAN LAWSON

ecure access to high-quality water is helping open the door to drive major development opportunities across the WimmeraMallee.

Despite long periods of dry weather across the region, water via the region’s extensive piping system is providing a catalyst for growth. GWMWater managing director Mark Williams, responding to questions about the role water was playing in the region, provided insight into the scope of regional growth based on supply.

He explained the precious liquid was playing an integral role in everything from major renewable-energy infrastructure projects and agricultural expansion to ensuring the health and viability of recreation and environmental assets. “We often get asked, ‘gee is there enough water in the system because we haven’t had much rain’, when the reality is the amount of saving we are getting from the piped system is substantial,” he said. “For what we are doing now in providing supply for consumption and development, we have enough water in the system to last for the next five

years. That does not mean we can afford to waste it through inappropriate use, but we are equipped to meet strategic demand. “We couldn’t supply it, for example, for broad-scale open irrigation. It’s about having reliable high-quality water more than in excessive volumes. “We’re already providing water to drive regional development, but if circumstance arose that swung the region into a higher gear, then we are equipped to meet that challenge.”

its heart, now covers almost 15 percent of Victoria. Mr Williams said guaranteed access to water was providing security to large-scale projects across much of the western third of the state. “In Buloke Shire for example, having confidence in water access is supporting $23-million in agricultural production, especially in poultry,” he said. “The shire is also preparing to serve another $27-million worth of permits for other farming enterprises. “Completion of the Ouyen Lake project, supplied by the Northern Mallee Pipeline, has generated significant

socio-economic benefits. We are also supplying water to a solar-farm project at Kiamal. “Closer to home we’ve been supporting major infrastructure work involving renewable-energy development, such as providing water for concrete pours and dust suppression. “Project sites such as Murra Warra are tapping into piped supply and in an opportunistic arrangement, Bulgana Green Power Hub in Northern Grampians Shire is pulling water from a Landsborough pipeline, which was constructed primarily to support viticulture in the Pyrenees Valley.” Continued page 3

Irvine: Gift still has a future BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

tawell Athletic Club committee members are confident the Stawell Gift will retain its status as Australia’s most prestigious footracing carnival despite a steep drop in prizemoney this year.

The club announced last week it would lower total prizemoney for its men’s and women’s gifts to $25,000 each, with the winners of both races pocketing $17,000. It is significantly less than the $40,000 offered to the men’s and women’s gift champions for the past four years. The club has explained that a shortfall of sponsorship money had resulted in a smaller prize pool for athletes. The gift has been without a naming rights sponsor since 2016. Stawell Athletic Club committee

member Robert Irvine said he was not concerned for the future of the gift. “Because we’re an incorporated body we have to make sure we have sufficient funds to run the event,” he said. “I don’t think the long-term future is in doubt because we wouldn’t put the event in danger. “We’re concentrating very heavily on running this year’s gift as the best possible event we can have. We’re planning for an event as big if not bigger than we ran last year because we have great faith that athletes will support a really important carnival. “It still is the richest footracing carnival in Australia, with prize money well over $90,000 all up.” Northern Grampians Shire Council announced it had offered financial help to Stawell Athletic Club to help cover the shortfall in prize money.

Mr Irvine said the club was considering the council offer, but was wary of conditions that came with the funding. “We’re still in discussions with the Northern Grampians Shire and we will continue to work positively with them, as we will with the State Government,” he said. “Any agreement must come with some attachments that we can handle. “There may be some conditions that we need to be very careful of.” Northern Grampians mayor Kevin Irwin said the council was committed to working with the club. “The council put an offer on the table which is still there,” he said. “Whether we get an agreement before this year’s gift I don’t know, but we will continue to work with the club to try to get the prizemoney back up to where it should be.

“There are a couple of things we want the Stawell Athletic Club to do that we will work through with them. “The council wants to see the gift stay as a prestigious event, we want to assist the Stawell Athletic Club and we want to see the long-term sustainability of the gift.”

Tough competition

Mr Irvine said part of the difficulty of attracting a major sponsor came from an over-saturated sports media market. “You have men’s and women’s cricket, men’s and women’s football, tennis and a whole range of other events,” he said. “To fit into the scheme of that, we have to be able to offer a major sponsor all the benefits that we can. “We generate a lot of press publicity,

Water secure

Call for fishing comp stewards Horsham Fishing Competition organisers are calling on more groups or individuals to put their hands up to be stewards at the annual Labour Day weekend event. While a significant team is primed for the March 10 gathering on the Wimmera River, organisers are about 20 stewards short of what’s needed to run the event successfully. Committee spokesman and stalwart Kevin Dellar said an invitation was open to clubs, groups or individuals to take part. He said financial reward was available for stewards and putting a hand up to be a steward was a great opportunity to raise money for a club or organisation. “Clubs such as Jung Tigers Cricket Club have done it for years, raising much of the money they need to run a club for the year in one hit. But we need a few more to come forward,” he said. “The competition is always judged by our stewards, who spend the day working closely with the anglers.” Mr Dellar said people keen to put up their hand needed to come forward at a least a week before the competition. “We usually hand out kits and run through duties on the Wednesday night before the contest, so we need them to come forward before then,” he said. He said people could call him at Barbecues Galore in Horsham on 5382 1541 to sign up or to find out more about being a steward.

which was valued last year at more than $2-million. “The shire estimates our impact as $4-million on the local economy. “We’re important to the regional economy, but that’s not going to pay the bills.” Mr Irvine said athletics might need to overhaul its image to compete with other sports for sponsorship money. “It’s interesting – athletics has been trying to overhaul its image for a long time,” he said. “It’s really about getting crowds in, which we do, and making sure we project ourselves in the community as best we can.” Mr Irvine said the club would be able to offer its previous prizemoney pool if it attracted a major sponsor before the gift, which is from March 31 to April 2.

From page 1 “Of course Stawell Gold Mine firing up again also requires guaranteed supply,” Mr Williams said. “Secure access to piped water was a catalyst in establishing a base for oilseeds research at Longerenong and in Hindmarsh Shire piping potable water to Nhill, previously reliant solely on groundwater, allows for greater flexibility in expansion of enterprises such as duck producer Luv-a-Duck. “At the other end of the region, Ararat draws significantly on supply to meet development demand. And of course reports have also revealed the socio-economic value of tourism through the provision of recreation and environmental water to the region.” Mr Williams said regional opportunities would continue to expand with a new South West Loddon Pipeline close to completion and an East Grampians Pipeline in advanced planning stages. “Both will play major roles in providing greater opportunities across a broad spectrum of industries,” he said. Mr Williams said efficiencies built into pipeline management to cope with long periods of dry weather when run-off was minimal, had primed the system to exploit a return to a change in seasons. “We have a highly efficient headworks system based on lakes Bellfield, Rocklands and Wartook and if we had a return to seriously wet conditions, such as we’ve experienced in the past, we would be in an incredibly strong position to support a variety of regional development projects,” he said.

Gas fight heats up across district A

BY DEAN LAWSON

ustralian energy company Origin is exploring ways of entering the natural-gas retail market in Horsham in a move that might help end a long-running debate about a monopoly in the sector.

Origin senior media manager Stuart Osbourne confirmed his company was looking into the potential of entering the market in the region. “We’re not really in a position of confirming plans, but it is certainly something we’re looking at and hope to do,” he said. “We don’t have any arrangement with a private pipeline contractor but we are hoping to overcome any obsta-

cles if we want to pursue this. It’s a case of watch this space. “We’re hearing that people in the area want to go with us with gas and it appears to be an anomaly that this part of Victoria has only one piped-gas retailer.” Energy Australia is the sole pipedgas retailer in Horsham despite the sector supposedly open to competition. Member for Lowan Emma Kealy has continually raised concerns about the circumstance, fearing Horsham people have been left vulnerable to a monopolised essential service. She has written a detailed letter to Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio outlining her concerns in detail and

again calling for government action. She said in her letter, submitted on February 8, that Horsham residents had experienced a significant increase in retail gas prices since expiration of The Wimmera and Colac Gas Supply Tariff Order 1998. She added that many worried constituents had contacted her about the situation. In her letter to Ms D’Ambrosio she wrote – “As you are aware, Energy Australia currently owns 100 percent of the transportation capacity of the pipeline supply gas to western Victoria, making them the sole gas retailer in the region. “The Wimmera and Colac Gas Supply Tariff Order 1998 constrained Energy Australia’s gas tariff increases

to no more than the Consumer Price Index. “Since expiration of the Order in 2013, gas retail prices in Horsham have risen dramatically with a cumulative increase of about 85 percent. “The increase in 2018 alone was 15.3 percent, followed by a further increase of almost 10 percent in January this year.” Ms Kealy requested in the letter that the government immediately act to establish regulatory framework to protect Horsham residents from the potential risk of future price gouging. She also outlined major concerns in her letter about the marketing practices of some gas retailers she believed were exploiting the circumstances. “I am deeply concerned that Hor-

sham residents are missing out on discount offers and are being charged excessive gas rates due to a lack of competition or a capped increase agreement such as that previously provided by the Wimmera and Colac Gas Supply Tariff Order 1998,” she wrote. “I am also extremely concerned by the marketing practices that appear to exploit the gas supply and retail monopoly to Horsham. “Your government has previously made commitments to ensure the interests of consumers in the Wimmera are protected in relation to gas price increases. “I am seeking your advice regarding when this commitment will be honoured.”

New transport service launch

Buses confirmed for Stawell-Halls Gap run The State Government will double the number of V/Line coaches between Stawell and Halls Gap. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said people would have more travel options, better public transport connections and easier access to key attractions in the Halls Gap area. She said from March 31, V/Line

Wednesday, February 13, 2019

coach services between Stawell and Halls Gap would increase to two return services a day, with a morning and afternoon coach in each direction, seven days a week. She said the service would connect passengers to destinations including Brambuk National Park and Cultural Centre and Halls Gap Visitors Centre. They would coordinate to link with

Melbourne-bound coaches at Stawell Station. The upgrade also includes the construction of accessible bus stops outside Brambuk Cultural Centre and Grampians Gardens Caravan Park. “Locals and visitors deserve more travel options in this beautiful region of Victoria – and that’s exactly what we’re doing,” Ms Pulford said.

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

“With these upgrades, we’re making sure that public transport in Victoria’s regions connects more people to more places,” she said. Passenger information and new timetables will be available from March 1 at V/Line stations and online at ptv.vic.gov.au.

Horsham district residents have an alternative transport option after the launch of ridesharing service Uber in the region last week. Uber announced on Thursday it had expanded its service to Horsham, Shepparton, the Surf Coast and Warrnambool. The service operates via a mobile app, which people can download to their smartphone and use to book a ride to their destination. Uber estimated more than 3.8-million Australians use the app. Uber’s launch got off to a slow start in Horsham, with some initial users of the app claiming they were unable to book a ride on its launch date. Uber’s Victorian state manager Matthew Horn said the service needed time to gain traction in Horsham. “The truth of the matter is the launches are often off to a modest start and require a lot of work on our end to ensure we can build on the experience and ensure it is as reliable and compelling as possible for our riders and drivers,” he said. Mr Horn said the service would benefit local drivers looking to earn extra money. “We’re excited to bring ridesharing to Horsham, Shepparton, Warrnambool and the Surf Coast, providing another safe and affordable option for locals to get around,” he said. “This also presents an opportunity for members of the community who want to sign up to earn some extra money, while maintaining flexibility.” People can download Uber to their smartphones.

Riding the waves of water supply I

f we ever needed to galvanise a belief that our part of the world is primed for growth, we need only consider the role access to water is playing across the region. The reality is that construction of the Wimmera-Mallee Pipeline, which replaced the vast and clever but incredibly wasteful open-channel system, opened a new chapter of regional opportunity. Whether enough people in power have read the chapter beyond the first few paragraphs remains to be seen.

Constructing a vast network of pipes in western Victoria is much more than creating a system to provide secure high-quality water to isolated towns or to water a few thirsty sheep. Security of water supply represents a mighty engine capable of establishing the foundation of industry and communities and acting as a stimulant to significant socio-economic growth. In The Weekly Advertiser today, GWMWater managing director Mark Williams has provided a snapshot of the critical role efficient water supply is having in driving regional devel-

opment. The distance and influence of water captured and delivered from the Grampians or sourced from the Murray River and the diversity in development projects is, to say the least, impressive. It is all happening despite the re-

gion experiencing long periods of dry weather and minimal run-off. This means we have a water system, unlike in many other parts of Australia that is adaptable and open to strategic resource management – so much so that we have guaranteed supply for the next five years. But, as a state, it is hard to gauge whether we have fully realised the opportunities this outstanding supply system provides. Brainstorming planning for the pipeline system years ago produced all sorts of quirky development ideas.

Many of them involved using saved water for greenfield industry development while guaranteeing supply for the environment. Yet we have a region of diminishing population where apart from water supply, other pieces of the regional growth jigsaw such as public transport, health and education services appear incredibly hard to win. We can only hope the Wimmera and southern Mallee, at some time and perhaps riding on the back of water, will emerge from Victoria’s back blocks and realise its full potential.

Sapphires mishap Horsham Town Hall officials hope to reprogram The Sapphires stage production later this year or in 2020 after being forced to cancel the production on Saturday night. Serious safety concerns involving a set for the production forced a last-minute cancellation of the event. Commissioning company Hit Productions formally apologised for the mishap with representative Christine Harris commenting: “This is no reflection on the performers or the venue who are committed to presenting theatre goers the highest quality theatre experience.” The town hall management team is providing a full refund to people who bought tickets to the show. Venue manager Shana Miatke provided a statement on stage to patrons, apologising and thanking them for their commitment to the venue and support of the season opening of The Sapphires.

Youth group part of Relay for Life Young people who take part in Horsham Relay for Life next month will be able to retreat to a special tent organised by the event’s new youth committee. The youth committee, made up of students from Horsham schools, will create the ‘Youth Zone’ tent to greater engage young people at the annual money-raiser. The Youth Zone tent will be open to anyone aged 13 to 18 and include a variety of items and activities such as musical instruments, a phone charging station, music, games, couches, bean bags, food and drink.

Wednesday, February 13, 2019

The committee is promoting Youth Zone as a space where young people can ‘hang out’ and take in the atmosphere of relay. Entry to the Youth Zone will be $2, which will give a person access to the zone as many times as they want throughout the event. Horsham Relay for Life, at Dock Lake Reserve, is on March 15 to 16, starting at 5.40pm on the Friday and ending at noon on the Saturday. Members of the youth committee have been organising the Youth Zone tent and busy asking for business support.

As well as the Youth Zone tent, the committee is also organising an auction during the relay, where various items signed by high-profile personalities will go under the hammer. The Youth Committee is the result of Horsham Relay for Life organisers asking young people what they wanted for people aged between 13 and 18 at the event. The committee meets once a month. People who take part in the Horsham event will join thousands of Australians who take part in Cancer Council’s Relay for Life.

Grampians primed for music festival G

BY DEAN LAWSON

rampians district communities are set to benefit from a significant economic injection this weekend when people from across Victoria gather for Grampians Music Festival.

Grampians Tourism chief executive Marc Sleeman said the annual Halls Gap event, from Friday to Sunday, would have a positive impact across a broad region. He said the festival represented one of Grampians Tourism’s three big calendar events, alongside Grampians Grape Escape and Simply Shiraz. “The line-up the festival has in terms of music is fantastic and the positive feedback we’ve had in talking to the target market has been overwhelming,” he said. “Economic benefits don’t only flow into Halls Gap, they disperse across the region, with people staying in a variety of places such as Pomonal, Stawell, Dunkeld and so on. “Critically, the event further showcases what the Grampians has to offer. It is important to note that from this type of event a large percentage of visitors will be coming to the Grampians for the first time. “If they come once, they are likely to come back for a repeat visit.” Grampians Music Festival, in its third year, is quickly developing a personality that separates it from

other large musical events. The festival strongly promotes a diverse and inclusive family demographic that is proving attractive to a broad audience. Festival director Carly Flecknoe of Halls Gap said patron numbers were well up on last year in early sales and she was expecting a rapid final rush on tickets this week. “It is hard to predict but we are expecting to have about 1000 people on site, which combined with all the vendors and support people might take it up to about 1500,” she said. “We have a 1500-ticket cap, but considering our growth, the festival space at Seven Valley Drive could in the future accommodate up to 4000. “We would love to eventually share the experience with that many people but we want to do it organically without changing the experience for patrons.”

Diversity

Ms Flecknoe said the festival’s patron demographic was incredibly diverse. “Such broad ranges of people are coming for the shared experience – for example, there are kids who are under 10 there with families experiencing their first or second music festival,” she said. “We also love being able to bring people out from Melbourne while at the same time providing something

for local people. We are also always trying to use local suppliers and service providers. “I feel really privileged to be part of something that is making a bit of a wave. I’m so excited and can’t wait. “We just want everyone to have a great experience.” The festival has strong over-arching policies based around respect, diversity and inclusion and environmental sustainability, which are reflected in an eclectic line-up of popular musical acts. A lengthy list of acts on the bill includes prominent performers such as Sampa The Great, Angie McMahon, Wafia, Slum Sociable and covers of a variety of genres. Other performers include Alice Skye, Benny Walker, Sagamore, White Bleaches, Bones and Jones, Kat Edwards, Rat Hammock, Planet, Jade Imagine, Hobsons Bay Coast Guard, Huntly, MzRizk, Seaside, Sunscreen, Batts, Cool Out Sun, Body Type, Milan Ring and Sweat Dreams DJs. Patrons will pay $179 for three-day passes, $159 for two-day passes and $40 for a Friday Best in the West night. Single-day tickets are also available and children 14 and under can enter for free when accompanied by an adult. Tickets and information are available online at grampiansmusicfestival.com.

Extras cast for film production

COUNTRY STARS: Popular act the Wolfe Brothers will return to the stage at Lake Charlegrark Country Music Marathon at the weekend. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

BY COLIN MACGILLIVRAY

immera-Mallee residents will soon have an opportunity to see themselves on the big screen as a production crew prepares to begin shooting major film The Dry in the region.

Country stars at Charlegrark

A casting call for extras for the feature film went out in Beulah and Minyip at the weekend, with more than 100 people from across the Wimmera attending the sessions. The casting call did not specify the name of the film and The Dry’s media spokespeople have refused to divulge filming locations, but Beulah and Minyip residents and public figures confirmed the casting call was for The Dry. The project, based on a novel by Jane Harper, will star and be executive produced by Australian film icon Eric Bana. Mr Bana visited several Wimmera locations with a production crew in December, and the owner of Minyip’s Emma’s Café confirmed producers of The Dry had been keen to use the town’s Club Hotel as a location. Beulah Historic Learning and Progress Association helped organise the casting session for extras in Beulah on Saturday. Progress association secretary Barb Moore said more than 100 people attended. “We had people come from far and wide – it wasn’t just locals, but we did have some locals as well,” she said. “Everyone was keen to get into the movie. People came from Horsham, Swan Hill – everywhere. “The producers were very happy. It was a lot more people than what they expected.” Mrs Moore said producers had asked her not to reveal the name of the movie, but said they needed ‘60 or 70 extras for a funeral scene’. In the novel The Dry, protagonist Aaron Falk returns to his fictional home town of Kiewarra to attend the funer-

Excitement

Mrs Moore said people in the region were thrilled to have a chance to be involved in a film production. “Everyone around town is excited about it and can’t believe that a movie is going to be shot in town,” she said. “The producers have come to a little town with not much in it. “My understanding is it is going to be shot between Minyip, Hopetoun and Beulah and a little bit in Warracknabeal. “There are other locations that they needed as well that are further away. “Everyone is most excited and looking forward to it. “The crew loved how friendly a small country town like Beulah was when they arrived.” Information on the casting call for extras suggested filming in the region would be between February 25 and March 30. Yarriambiack Shire Council mayor Graeme Massey said a major film production would benefit the region financially.

“My understanding is that the story is going to be shot based on a country town which is mainly going to be Beulah, with some scenes being in Minyip and surrounding areas,” he said. “In terms of the benefits to the shire, we will have the cast and the crew – which is about 60 people – here for about four or five weeks. “They will be accommodated in the towns around here and they will spend money and they will enjoy themselves and go away with a greater understanding and awareness of how we live up here in the country.” Cr Massey said the project would also bring recognition to what was sometimes a forgotten part of rural Victoria. “It does draw a bit of attention to the area,” he said. “We’re a bit of a neglected part of Victoria. Any publicity that is positive is a definite benefit. “We’re still getting visitors for the silo art trail that has put us on the map, but I know for sure people do travel to places where films have been shot. “And for people who live in the region, seeing their towns on the big screen will be a benefit to them.” The Dry is slated for release in January 2020.

Female-friendly facilities a win W

ork on new changerooms at Horsham’s Dudley Cornell Park will reflect a growing need to ensure facilities provide services for all sporting participants, including women.

Modern public toilets will be included as part of the new female-friendly building, and a sheltered barbecue area will be located between two ovals at the reserve. In the future, Horsham Rural City Council will install two art works created at Horsham NorthFest events, at the reserve. The council has allocated $160,000 to support the projects, with a Sport and Recreation Victoria grant contributing $100,000. Dudley Cornell Park in Horsham North is one of the Wimmera’s busiest sporting facilities, hosting cricket, junior football, athletics and soccer. Amenities at the reserve, home of Colts Cricket Club and an historic base for former

“Female participation in sport is a key focus area of council’s Health and Wellbeing Plan and this sort of investment will open the doors for many new and emerging players to participate in sport, as they will simply feel more comfortable”

– Josh Koenig

Imperials Football Club, which formed with returned servicemen after the Second World War, are outdated. Changerooms fall short of modern standards and public toilets are 100 metres from the building. Cr Josh Koenig, a member of the Dudley Cornell Park Advisory Committee, said increasing female participation was key to revitalising the popular recreation area. “This reserve was virtually my backyard when growing up and it’s pleasing to see improvements happening,” he said.

“It means the park will be a modern facility and every person in the community can enjoy its benefits. “We recognise that many local sports facilities, built about 50 years ago when sport was a male-dominated area, simply are not accessible for women or people with disabilities. “Female participation in sport is a key focus area of council’s Health and Wellbeing Plan and this sort of investment will open the doors for many new and emerging players to participate in sport, as they will simply feel more comfortable.” Cr Koenig said the park’s user groups were in full support of proposals to increase female participation in sport. “Clubs at the park are all keen to provide more sports programs that are aimed at teenage girls,” he said. “It’s also the main option as a recreation facility for people in Horsham North, so it’s critical the infrastructure meets the community’s expectations.”

INSPIRATION: Australian Paralympian Stuart Tripp shared his life experience with students at Horsham Primary School on Friday. Mr Tripp is pictured with students from Mrs Pope’s grade four class. Picture: COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

Inspirational message Australian Paralympian Stuart Tripp visited Horsham Primary School on Friday to share his life experiences with students from grades three to six. Mr Tripp represented Australia at the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Paralympics, winning a silver medal in the 2016 handcycling time trial. Mr Tripp was 24 years old in 1994 when a car crash resulted in him losing his right leg and suffering head trauma, amnesia and kidney failure. He was overweight and struggled with his mental health before being introduced to handcycling in 2003. Mr Tripp talked to students about his sporting achievements and how he dealt with the aftermath of the car crash. “I showed them a brief video of me in Rio and gave them a bit of backstory about losing my leg, the car accident and how I started to ride a bike to cope with depression and anxiety,” he said. “I said, if I’ve got to ride a bike to keep myself balanced, why not keep doing it?” Wednesday, February 13, 2019

Mr Tripp said young students were usually receptive to talks about mental health. “They get the message better than a lot of people realise,” he said. “I adjust the terminology a bit so it’s more age appropriate – rather than saying I was depressed or anxious, I might say I was feeling sad or down for a long period of time. “I talk about how exercise releases endorphins that make you feel good, but I call them ‘dolphins’ to begin with. “I tell them endorphins are a chemical that makes your brain feel happy, and dolphins are happy animals too, and that helps it stick. “It’s important for kids to realise exercise is important for mental wellbeing just as much as it is for physical wellbeing.” Mr Tripp was also a guest speaker at the Wimmera Sports Star of the Year Awards at Holy Trinity Lutheran College on Friday night.

Regional cities back federal migrant plan A

group representing Victoria’s regional cities including Horsham has welcomed federal funding to help attract skilled migrants to country areas.

But Regional Cities Victoria has cautioned that any migration program would need careful management and support through investment in infrastructure. This would include reliable rail services, improved road networks and expansion of healthcare and education services to match increased demand. Regional Cities Victoria is made up of mayors and chief executives of Horsham, Ballarat, Bendigo, Geelong, Latrobe, Mildura, Shepparton, Wangaratta, Warrnambool and Wodonga councils. It was responding to a Federal Government announcement of $19.4-million in funding to help regional areas attract skilled migrants. Regional Cities Victoria chair Margaret O’Rourke said with the right planning, a regional migration program had the potential to transform regional cities and alleviate the population pressures in capital cities. “We already know our regional cities are attractive alternatives to Melbourne, and this is backed up by data from the RCV Liveability Index, undertaken by Deloitte Access Economics,” she said. “The challenge is to encourage people who are

looking to move to choose a regional city over a capital city. “The migration initiatives in the funding announcement could significantly boost regional economies, as well as increase cultural diversity in regional cities. “It’s also good to hear the Designated Area Migration Agreements program will be expanded. “There are several Victorian regional cities who would be interested.” Cr O’Rourke said apart from infrastructure considerations, Regional Cities Victoria would like to see programs that helped families settle into their new communities. “For any migrants, adjusting to a new city and a new culture takes time,” she said. “If we want to ensure migrants remain longterm in our regional cities, we need to offer support programs for new families to help them settle in, find work and schools, and connect with the community,” she said. “RCV supports the sustainable growth of our cities. Attracting new residents is only one part of the equation. “Supporting infrastructure, services and programs are all necessary to ensuring our cities’ growth is managed sensibly, so that we maintain a high standard of liveability for our communities.” RCV’s role, in supporting policies enabling Victoria’s regional cities to grow and develop, is to provide advice, co-ordination and advocacy to state and federal governments.

Unveiling war history T

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

Roly Coutts

Meet...

he feats of the Anzacs at Gallipoli and Kokoda are etched into Australia’s collective consciousness.

But for many, the largest attack on the country by a foreign nation remains a mystery. Tuesday will mark the 77th anniversary of the bombing of Darwin by Japan during the Second World War. More than 180 aircraft attacked Darwin at 9.58am on February 19, 1942. The town was completely unprepared. Hundreds of allied soldiers and civilians were killed in the bombing, which targeted ships in the harbour and other locations across the city. Among the soldiers stationed at Darwin during the attack was Horsham’s Angus Scott, a member of the 19th Machine Gun Battalion. “We thought they were our own planes coming in because they came from inland,” he said. “We thought they were ours until the bombs came whistling down. “We had nothing to defend ourselves with anyhow, even if we had known they weren’t ours. “There were plenty of bloody planes there and none of them were ours.” The attack was the first and largest of 64 Japanese air raids in northern Australia during 1942 and 1943. “That was only one raid and they came back again the same day,” he said. “After the day raids they started doing night raids, which was even scarier because you could hear them but you couldn’t see them. “A bombing raid is a bombing raid and there is no one better than the other, but the night ones were scary.” Mr Scott recalled many soldiers having rifles but no ammunition. “If the Japanese had landed they could’ve come straight through without any resistance,” he said. “Nothing could have stopped them.” Mr Scott said news of the attack was censored and suppressed in Australian media. “I think if you’re going into a war zone you’re entitled to know what’s going on,” he said. “It was such a mix up that the Prime Minister was trying to make it sound a lot better than what it was, and people down south were in the dark about it. They didn’t know what was going on.

WE MUST REMEMBER: Darwin Defender Angus Scott, 96, pictured in his Horsham home, is the sole survivor of his battalion. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER “In a nutshell, we were sent to the wolves in my opinion.” At 96, Mr Scott is one of the last living members of his battalion. He said it was important for people to remember the Japanese attack at Darwin and its significance for the country. Darwin Defenders Horsham committee secretary Lynne Wright agreed learning about the bombing was important. “The government put so much censorship on it and part of the aim of the Darwin Defenders organisation is to get it in the school curriculum,” she said. “It’s part of Australian history and because of the censorship it was never taught. “Even thought I come from a big service family, my kids couldn’t tell you much about it because they weren’t taught it at school. “It’s an important part of our history. We don’t want to glorify it, we want to make sure it never happens again.” Each year Darwin Defenders host a service in Horsham to teach students about the attack.

Weekly Wool Market

This year’s service will be at Horsham College’s Ian Maroske Hall from 9.45am. Mrs Wright encouraged members of the public to attend. “If you’ve got kids involved in the service we’d encourage you to attend,” she said. “We’re encouraging people, particularly students, to take ownership of it because there aren’t too many people left that were there. “A lot who were there wouldn’t talk about it, and it was only in their later years that they felt they needed to pass the story on for the younger generations. “Hopefully it doesn’t get forgotten because it is part of our history.” Guest speaker for this year’s service will be Horsham Rural City councillor Pam Clarke. People attending the ceremony should be seated by 9.45am. Tea and coffee will be provided after the service. Mrs Wright said people wanting more information could call her on 0438 215 825.

The Australian wool market has continued its slow gradual climb in Week 32. The national offering increased slightly this sale, 39,894 bales were available to the trade. Although quantities increased on the previous week, the current AWEX Four Week Forecast (FWF) is showing a continual reduction in quantity over the coming month. This forecast has led many exporters to attempt to secure meaningful quantity, while it is still available. Prices remained relatively unchanged on the first day of selling, this was reflected in the AWEX Eastern Market Indicator (EMI) which recorded no change on Day 1. The second day of selling, buyers became more aggressive in their approach, resulting in price increases across the board. The prices being realised were generally 10 to 20 cents above those achieved in the previous week. The EMI rose by 10 cents for the day, thus gaining 10 cents for the series, to close at 1,944 cents. The EMI has now risen for six consecutive weeks, adding 95 cents since Week 24. Worth mentioning, Week 32 hosted the first designated Superfine sale in the Northern region, the specialty selection attracted strong support, pushing the Micron Price Guides (MPGs) for wool 18.0 micron and finer up by 40 to 45 cents. Also, worth noting, due to currency movements, when viewed in USd terms the EMI lost 25 cents for the series. The crossbred sector has added further gains to the large increases achieved at the previous sale. General increases of between 20 and 40 cents were experienced in the 25.0 to 30.0 micron range. A limited selection of 32.0 micron were generally unchanged. The oddments market finished marginally easier, generally 5 to 10 cents on most types. As mentioned earlier the national offering reduces again for the following sale. Currently, there is 38,205 bales rostered for sale in Sydney, Melbourne and Fremantle.

Sky’s the limit W

immera regional sports star of the year Sophie Martin remains unsure where her pursuit of tenpin bowling might lead.

But the Horsham College year-11 student, who clinched the award from a star-studded field, said the opportunity was clearly available to compete overseas. “I certainly didn’t expect to win. And it’s a little bit weird to be perfectly honest. Tenpin bowling is not a massive thing, especially in Horsham,” she said. “You can go overseas and go to college with it, but I’m not sure that’s what I want to do. But it is certainly a possibility.” Martin, 16, has represented the Australia schoolgirls team at Asian Schools Championships, played for Victoria for the past two years and won selection in a national program and other Victorian teams. She is now preparing to represent Australia at world junior tenpin bowling championships in Paris in March. She said the key to being a good tenpin bowler was being able to maintain consistency, through mental application, throughout a tournament. Martin, from Horsham, was among a glittering array of monthly finalists for the prestigious Horsham Sports and Community Club award. Other finalists were triathletes Susie Ellis, Kelly Miller, Sally Pymer and Ella Walsgott, basketballer Ben Hobbs, equestrians Morgan Lane and Oscar Cole, swimmer Lily Eldridge, bowler Josh Barry, footballer Tyson Harris, volleyballers Cleo Baker, Laelah Robertson and Shaun Bray and fellow tenpin bowler Bevan Brooke. Officials presented a variety of awards during a presentation dinner at Horsham’s Holy Trinity Lutheran College hall on Friday night.

WINNERS: Pictured clockwise from above: Access for All Abilities award winner Josh Barry; Unsung Hero Award recipient Jo Baker; guest speaker Stuart Tripp and Sports Star of the Year winner Sophie Martin; Seb, Official of the Year, and Kingsley Dalgleish; and the Murtoa year-10 volleyball Team of the Year. Pictures: DEAN LAWSON

Paralympian and hand-cyclist Stuart Tripp, who was guest speaker, outlined during the evening how a devastating car crash had physically and psychologically changed his life. Mr Tripp lost his leg as a result of the crash and said finding his way into competitive cycling after going through the ordeal of post traumatic stress disorder had helped him emerge from a world of depressive illness. Awards featured people from a broad cross section of Wimmera sport. Veteran of the Year went to Horsham endurance athlete Susie Ellis who competed in World Half Ironman championships in South Africa last year. A Sportsmanship Award went to Warracknabeal student, swimmer and coach Lily Eldridge and a Women in Sport category went to Horsham Calisthenics College’s long-time coach Kylie Hermans. Murtoa College volleyball team manager Jo Baker won an Unsung Hero Award and a Coach of the Year award went to Amanda Wik for her work with Holy Trinity Lutheran and St Brigid’s college aerobics teams. St Brigid’s College won a Sporting School of the Year title and emerging AFL umpire Seb Dalgleish was Official of the Year. Horsham Calisthenics College doubled in awards with club president Tammy Smith Administrator of the Year, Volleyball Horsham was Club of the Year and Team of the Year was a Murtoa College under-19 girls volleyball team. Rupanyup cricketer Connor Weidemann was junior athlete of the year and basketballer Tyra King a Koori Sports Star of the Year. Access for All Abilities awards went to bowler Josh Barry and Rachel Werner and international basketballer Mitch Creek won recognition with a Grassroots Award.

Employment data positive Member for Wannon Dan Tehan believes reduced unemployment rates in Ararat and Northern Grampians municipalities are the result of a stronger economy. “While Australians work hard to provide for their families, the Coalition government is getting on with the job of helping deliver a stronger economy,” he said. Mr Tehan made the comments in response to figures that showed from September 2017 to September 2018, unemployment rates fell from six percent to 4.4 percent in Ararat and 5.6 percent to 3.9 percent in Northern Grampians. “More Australians are now in work than ever before, and I’m pleased we are seeing the benefits flowing in Wannon, with more local jobs,” he said. Mr Tehan said more than 1.2-million jobs have emerged since the Coalition came to office in 2013. “The government is determined to continue to put in place the right conditions to ensure we have a strong economy and more jobs,” he said. “By contrast, Bill Shorten and Labor would risk it all with their $200-billion of taxes on electricity, workers, housing, savings, investments and retirement hitting millions of Australians. “The Australian economy has gained momentum, but we must be wary of global headwinds and risks posed by taking a different approach.”

We’re building a better tax system for small businesses.

Kealy shares experiences

The Government is tackling tax avoidance to ensure foreign and big businesses pay their fair share with an extra $5.6 billion collected in the last two years.

Better for business

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy has made the most of an overseas holiday to join Karen New Year celebrations in Myanmar. While visiting Myanmar, also known as Burma, Ms Kealy joined the Hpa An Karen community for the occasion. She said she had been keen to use her break from parliamentary duties to gain a greater understanding of the people and culture that were establishing a strong and positive foothold in the Wimmera. “It was a wonderful experience to celebrate Karen New Year with these amazing people on their home lands,” she said. “I have been fortunate to attend Karen celebrations in Nhill and this experience was very similar. There was great colour and movement, delicious food and extremely lovely people.” Ms Kealy said she was grateful to have the opportunity. “It was only possible because of the wonderful relationships I have developed with members of Nhill’s Karen community,” she said. “The Karen resettlement is a wonderful migration success story. The Karen community now makes up more than 10 percent of Nhill’s population and the town is being rewarded with growth and vibrancy.”

For small to medium businesses, there is immediate tax relief as well as a reduction in the company tax rate to 25% in just three years.

hile some might regard the number 13 as unlucky, Horsham’s Old Skool Hotrod and Custom Club has promised its 13th annual hotrod run in Halls Gap will bring good luck to people who attend.

Halls Gap will welcome more than 120 hotrods and custom cars, along with hundreds of hotrod enthusiasts, who will make their annual pilgrimage to the tourist town this weekend. The Old Skool Hotrod and Custom Club organises the Halls Gap rod run, which will once again feature a wide variety of ‘hotted up’ and modified pre-1966 vehicles. The run kicks off on Friday

Mini makers get creative Pre-school children can create art and craft at free Mini Makers Art Club sessions in Ararat. Sessions, running from 11am to noon, have changed from the first Wednesday to the first Tuesday of each month. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said Mini Makers had always been a popular class. He said Ararat district artist Jiah Harrison, who also works at Ararat art gallery, would host Mini Makers this year. Mini Makers is designed especially for pre-schoolers with a craft theme inspired by a different storybook each month. Each session includes sing-a-longs, story reading and guided craft activities. At the end of each session each child produces a piece of art to take home. Bookings are unnecessary for the sessions, which are held in the newly refurbished Ararat Gallery TAMA Studio. Wednesday, February 13, 2019

night and continues through Saturday and Sunday. The event will focus on entrants and spectators celebrating cars and a lifestyle from a bygone era. Visitors to Halls Gap will see a variety of hotrod and custom vehicles originally built from 1920 to 1965 and modified to meet modern safety and performance standards. Entrants will start arriving from across Victoria and interstate on Friday, where they will enjoy ‘diner-style’ burgers while catching up with fellow hotrodders and friends. Saturday activities will start with hotrod cruises to Stawell and locations nearby, followed by a visit to the Halls Gap Hotel for a sit-down lunch, which

will also include an impromptu car show. Afternoon activities will consist of cruising, shopping and visiting attractions in and around Halls Gap and evening entertainment for entrants. After breakfast on Sunday, car owners and drivers will assemble their vehicles at the northern end of Halls Gap Caravan Park for a show and shine display from 10am to 1.30pm.

Club president Alan Harmer urged people to make the most of the occasion. “Why not take the family to visit Halls Gap, check out the sights and get up close to the hotrods and custom lifestyle?” he said.

Detox your home A regional waste recovery group is encouraging Wimmera people to ‘detox’ homes of toxic household chemicals. Grampians Central West Waste and Resource Recovery Group is promoting the concept with people living in Horsham, Yarriambiack, Hindmarsh, West Wimmera and Northern Grampians municipalities. The group is urging residents to use a ‘safe, free and easy-touse’ service to dispose of common, toxic household chemicals without harming health or the environment. Household chemical collection program Detox Your Home will be at Horsham Transfer Station at Kenny Road from 9am to 11am on February 16. With Horsham Rural City Council and Sustainability Victoria, Grampians Central West is encouraging people to take the opportunity to get rid of unwanted and potentially dangerous items such as pesticides, detergents and weed killers. Group executive officer La Vergne Lehmann said household chemicals could be dangerous. “They can harm your family

and your pets, add extra fuel to a house fire, release toxic fumes and pollute the environment for future generations,” she said. Mrs Lehmann warned people against putting chemicals out with the regular rubbish collection where they could explode, ignite, leak or mix with other chemicals. She also cautioned against pouring them down the drain where they could pollute waterways, harm animals and vegetation, contaminate drinking-water supply and make rivers and lakes unsafe for swimming. “The good news is you can reduce the risk of poisoning, environmental pollution and bushfire hazards, as well as improve recycling rates, by dropping off unwanted chemicals at Horsham’s Detox Your Home event,” she said. “Do the right thing for your loved ones and your environment. It’s easy and it’s free.” People seeking more information can go to website www.sustainability.vic.gov.au/ detoxyourhome.

Farm algae warning V

ictoria’s acting chief veterinary officer has warned farmers that blue-green algae in farm water supplies could poison stock and pets.

Dr Cameron Bell said seasonal conditions were ideal for algal growth in farm supplies, which often occurred in late summer and early autumn. “Blue-green algal blooms typically appear as surface scum that looks like a suspension of green paint or curdled green milk,” he said. “However, the colour might range from pale green to dark brown. “Often an earthy smell will accompany a blue-green algal bloom. “Deaths occur when stock drink toxins produced by the blue-green algae, often when it is concentrated on the down-wind side of a water supply and has formed a dense, surface scum. “Animals that have consumed blue-green algal toxin can become ill very rapidly and die within 24 hours. “Those that don’t die immediately often suffer severe liver damage. “This might lead to the development of jaundice or photosensitisation over the next few days.” Dr Bell said animals that recovered from these ailments might then suffer from chronic ill-thrift. He said there is no specific treatment for blue-green algae poisoning.

“Blue-green algal poisoning should be suspected when animals are found dead and dying after access to an algal-contaminated water source,” he said. “Dead animals might have their mouth, nose, feet and legs stained green by algae. “Laboratory testing of the water supply for the presence of bluegreen algae, and a post-mortem examination of dead or sick animals by a veterinarian, will determine if the cause is blue-green algal poisoning. “Checking stock water supplies daily for blooms remains the most effective way of preventing stock deaths.” Dr Bell said another way to prepare was to develop a livestock water budget so farmers knew how much water stock required each day. “Don’t forget to allow for high consumption during hot conditions,” he said. “Identify an alternative water supply prior to the primary source of livestock drinking water being affected by a bloom. “There might not be time to identify an alternative water source once the primary water supply is affected.” Dr Bell said if farmers noticed a suspicious bloom, they should remove stock from the contaminated water source as quickly as possible and provide an alternate water supply.

“Given the current dry conditions, facilitating the efficient movement of hay and grain to drought-affected farmers is critical”

ictoria’s peak farmer group has welcomed a VicRoads announcement to extend a Victorian roadtrain network.

$20

e n o e m o s h t i w ... to share ove ... you l

Victorian Farmers Federation Grains Group president Ross Johns said the decision had come after months of VFF lobbying. “The VFF, with our members, has been calling for measures to make it easier for hay and fodder to reach farmers in need,” he said. “VicRoads should be congratulated for listening and acting. “This change will have a positive impact on many – those transporting feed and those urgently needing supplies.

– Ross Johns

“Given the current dry conditions, facilitating the efficient movement of hay and grain to drought-affected farmers is critical. “We encourage the government to permanently extend the road-train network to deliver increased access and efficiency on Victorian roads. “The Andrews government is almost halfway

through its first 100 days. Infrastructure, particularly fit-for-purpose roads, is a key area where it could make significant improvements and invest to support Victoria’s agriculture sector.” The expanded road-train network will include the Western Highway from the South Australian border, the Borung Highway between Dimboola and Warracknabeal and the Henty Highway from Horsham to Ouyen. Road-train operators can apply for a permit to transport hay and feed to drought-affected areas in New South Wales and Queensland.

ACROBATS: Circus performance By a Thread is on Ararat Town Hall’s program this year.

Ararat primed for shows From daring circus feats to moving works of drama, puppet shows for children, live music, comedy shows and jazz, the 2019 Ararat Town Hall program has something for everyone. The program will start on March 13 with the first of this year’s free midday concerts, The Hoffman’s Variety Show. Next up will be circus-performance show By a Thread, which includes seven acrobats using 30 metres of rope to perform counterweight acrobatics. This will be followed up the next week, on April 12 during the school holidays, with family-friendly puppet show Picasso and His Dog. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said performances were scheduled between March and September, with the

program including two outreach shows – at Moyston and Pomonal halls. Dr Harrison said a town hall team was excited to be presenting a diverse and exciting program in the newly refurbished building, which re-opened in August after a large-scale renovation. “The shows on our 2019 program are sure to interest, amuse and entertain everyone, from the very young to the young-at-heart,” he said. “There really is something for everyone, whether you like comedy, enjoy puppet shows, love to watch circus or enjoy live music.” The program is available on Ararat Town Hall website, with links to ticket purchasing to go live closer to the date of each show.

Kealy slams drop in police numbers M

ember for Lowan Emma Kealy wants the State Government to address what she believes is a shortage of police across Victoria.

Ms Kealy said latest Victoria Police data confirmed a fall in the number of new police across the state under Premier Daniel Andrews. She said an analysis of Victoria Police employee-by-location data for the December 2018 quarter showed Labor provided 2040 additional police and

protective services officers during the past four years. “That’s a staggered 823 less compared with the Coalition government’s total of 2863 between 2010 and 2014,” she said. Ms Kealy said she was far from impressed with details involving her electorate, which includes the Wimmera, southern Mallee and Western District. She said Victorian Crime Statistics Agency figures revealed offences in

Southern Grampians Shire Council had risen 66.3 percent. “Our hardworking police officers do an outstanding job with extremely limited resources and are doing their utmost to protect our people, uphold the law and ensure safe communities,” Ms Kealy said. “Regional Victoria already faces a greater challenge to recruit and retain police. More police and modern, fit-for-purpose facilities are urgently required.

“Daniel Andrews’ cuts to police numbers are only making the problem worse. “I am calling on the State Government to boost police numbers and provide our local police with the facilities they need to protect our local people.” Ms Kealy has repeatedly called on the government to provide money to replace Police Station and residence, which is ‘past its use by date and no longer meets service demands and security requirements of a mod-

Model train show to reveal new era Ararat Model Train Show will provide an opportunity for model enthusiasts to gain insight into how the hobby has evolved. Grampians Model Railroaders are using this weekend’s show, their second in Ararat, to reveal how modern technology is expanding the pastime into a variety of directions. They are also using the event to raise money to help fit out their headquarters in Stawell. Club treasurer Clyde Humphries said model railways these days were much more than trains simply running around on circular tracks. “The hobby has grown and is right up with the trends in electronic control,” he said. “You can now control a train set with an iPad or iPhone. “Some of the engines can be valued up to $1000 and you can do just about anything, flash lights, toot the horn, all from your phone.” Mr Humphries said people developing sets could also bring many other elements to life. “You can have bicycles pedaling along. Forklifts, cars, you name it, we can animate it and it just brings that extra bit of magic to what can be done,” he said. Ararat Model Train Show will be at Alexandra Oval Community Centre

Adult patrons will pay $10 and children under 16 can enter free of charge.

Mr Humphries said the idea of the show was to reinvigorate the hobby in the region. “The plan is to try to get train hobbyists out of the closet and get them along to clubs to see just how much it has changed,” he said.

ern station’. Ms Kealy said Hamilton Police Station was also in need of renovation, with ‘holding cells in an unacceptable condition to hold suspects under arrest for more than a few hours’. “Violent crime is out of control in Victoria and it is unforgivable that the Andrews Labor government has allowed this reduction in police numbers to occur and failed to fund much needed local facility upgrades,” she said.

St Arnaud flood study Northern Grampians Shire Council will assess the potential impacts of flooding in St Arnaud with a $120,000 state government grant. The flood study will focus on Lexel Creek at its tributary. Mapping will be used for emergency management planning, updating schemes and community education. There is no current flood information for St Arnaud and no anecdotal evidence from previous floods in the area. The study will assess the potential for urban growth to exacerbate current issues if local flooding is not properly understood. Kara Kara Ward councillor Tony Driscoll said the study would better prepare St Arnaud for any future floods. “We’ve had some flash flooding over the years in St Arnaud, including last year, so this funding will enable us to get a better handle on overcoming these flooding issues,” he said. “This will also provide us an opportunity to look at our infrastructure in town and adopt a new strategy if that’s what comes out of the study.” Funding for the study was provided by the Federal Government in partnership with states and territories under the Natural Disaster Resilience Grant Scheme.

Super rollercoaster I

f you pay close attention to the value of your superannuation fund, and if, like most people, your money is spread across the main investment classes, you would have noticed that your retirement savings can both rise – and fall – in value.

This can lead to nervous times, particularly if you are close to or already in retirement. So, what causes these ups and downs, and can you do anything about them?

Start with how your fund is invested

For the most part, fluctuations in the balance of your super fund can be attributed to the portion invested in shares, and to a lesser extent, property. In general, the greater the exposure to the share market, the greater the volatility – the bigger the rises and falls – in the value of your retirement savings. So, what drives share prices?

How much is an investment worth?

Let’s compare two companies, A and B, and the profit per share that they are expected to generate: Year

Company A Earnings per share

Company B Earnings per share

$1.00

$2.00

$1.20

$2.30

$1.25

$2.50

$1.30

$2.70

$1.40

$2.85

Which company’s shares would you pay more for? The obvious answer is Company B’s. Based on current information, it is projected to generate much higher earnings and is therefore worth substantially more per share than Company A. That’s because, in very simple terms, an investment is worth the sum total of all of its future earnings.

It is not quite that simple

Of course, there’s a catch: the future is a very uncertain place. What if next year Company B announces that its profit is only $1.50 per share? Suddenly it looks much less valuable, and as a result its share price should fall. But company profit announcements are not the only things share analysts look at. They examine

FINANCE

focus

all sorts of issues to anticipate what a company’s future earnings will be. Some are specific to the company, such as a change in chief executive or launch of a new technology, whereas changes in interest rates or a jump in unemployment can affect the whole share market.

Opinions matter

Aside from hard numbers, opinions count for a lot too. One investor might think that the fossil fuel era is coming to a close, that the earnings of coal and oil companies will fall, and their share prices will drop. Another investor might think that the world will increase its demand for fossil fuels and expect those same companies to rise in price. It is the collective opinion of all these analysts and share traders that set the momentary price of any given share. The combination of these collective opinions on the prices of the shares held by your super fund then determines how much your retirement nest egg changes in value. This doesn’t mean that share price movements always appear logical. A company can report a stellar profit and still have its share price hammered if the market was expecting an even better result.

What to do?

The impact of share price volatility can be moderated by good diversification and by allocating a smaller fraction of the portfolio to shares. Just be aware that the latter can also reduce the potential long-term returns from your portfolio. If the ups and downs in the value of your super fund are concerning you, or if you would just like to check if you are still on the right track, your licensed financial adviser will be able to assess your situation and point you in the right direction.

SUPPORT: The Resilience Project’s Martin Heppell with students in Stawell. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

A stronger community A visit from mental wellbeing program The Resilience Project has given hundreds of Stawell residents strategies to help them overcome adversity. The project – which operates workshops and seminars that provide positive mental health strategies for schools, sports clubs and businesses – spent three days in Stawell earlier this month. Presenter Martin Heppell ran a free session at Stawell Entertainment Centre promoting the value of gratitude, empathy and mindfulness. Mr Heppell also pre-

sented to teachers, industry professionals and other Stawell leaders before talking to primary and secondary school students in Northern Grampians Shire. Northern Grampians mayor Kevin Erwin said feedback from the sessions had been overwhelmingly positive. He said statistics showed one in four primary school students and one in three secondary school students lose sleep because of worry, and practising coping strategies was important. “One of the more alarm-

ing stats presented was that 65 percent of adolescents do not seek help for mental illness, so we certainly hope that through these sessions that number starts to fall,” he said. “I’d like to thank those who came along and participated over the course of those three days, as this will make us all a stronger community in the future.” People seeking more information on The Resilience Project can visit website theresilienceproject.com.au or search for The Resilience Project on Facebook.

Aged-care guru switches groups W

endy Walters will join Health Care Group as services director after spending working in aged care at Rural Health.

Wimmera residential nine years Northwest

Ms Walters has been working as Warracknabeal campus aged-care manager, where she has piloted and guided the development of an award-winning aged-care model. She follows former Rural Northwest Health chief executive Catherine Morley to Wimmera Health Care Group. Ms Morley, now Wimmera Health Care Group chief executive, said she was pleased Ms Walters was joining the organisation. “We look forward to focussing on how we can support the region to be nationally recognised through partnerships with the Wimmera Southern Mallee Health Alliance,” she said Rural Northwest Health chief executive Kevin Mills said Ms Walters had propelled aged care at Warracknabeal and Hopetoun to a world-standard level. “Wendy has been an amazing asset to RNH,” Mr Mills said. “Her dedication to developing a model of care that is recognised and feted worldwide is proof of her passion for our residents and those living with dementia. “It’s because of Wendy and her dedicated aged-care team that we have world-leading aged care here on the edge of the Mallee. “I look forward to continuing a working association with Wendy through various Wimmera Southern Mallee Health Alliance projects.” Ms Walters said she and Ms Morley developed an ABLE model of care with support of RNH aged-care team members.

WARNING: Country Fire Authority District 16 operations officer Neville Collins and Ararat Rural City Council Emergency Management and Community Safety co-ordinator Bob Barks with one of the new signs at Green Hill Lake camping reserve.

Fire danger education is key NEW POSITION: Wendy Walters will take on the role of residential services director at Wimmera Health Care Group. “There was input from various carers and managers as we developed the model,” she said. “I am very proud of the recognition the ABLE model has received from our peers, both nationally and internationally. “It was an honour for me to be part of a team that also achieved several state and national aged-care awards, so I will always be very proud of my time at RNH.” Ms Walters continues to find ways to improve on the care provided, regularly attending conferences throughout Australia and overseas. “I feel I’ve achieved as much as I can for RNH now and it’s time for fresh eyes to take over,” she said.

New signs at Green Hill Lake near Ararat will provide clear information about fire ratings after two campfires at the lake escaped, including one on a total-fire-ban day. Country Fire Authority Region 16 donated the two fire-rating signs to Ararat Rural City Council. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said one of the fires was significant and burnt a large area of an adjoining paddock. He said the other, lit on a day of total fire ban, was ‘totally’ unacceptable. Dr Harrison said after the incidents the council needed to educate the many interstate

and international visitors who used the campground about fire-danger ratings. “The majority of people know their responsibilities on a day of total fire ban but we can’t assume everyone does, so the signs will help all visitors to Green Hill Lake,” he said. “We are very grateful to the local CFA district for donating the signs and we’ll continue working with them to educate our community and visitors on fire danger messages.” The signs feature an arrow that points to the day’s fire rating danger and a ‘total fire ban’ placard that is flipped over as needed. Council community safety

officers change the signs each day as part of their routine patrols. The council installed the signs in mid January, one at the entrance of the camping area and the second mid-way through the grounds. Dr Harrison said police and the CFA had a zero-tolerance approach to people who breached total-fire-ban laws, and there was a strong statewide push to make people more accountable. “Green Hill Lake can accommodate hundreds of campers on a busy weekend – if there is a fire, there is real potential for disaster, so these signs are very important,” he said.

Recognising volunteers

am pleased to announce that nominations for the 2019 Volunteering Recognition Awards are now open.

Hosted every two years, the Volunteering Recognition Awards celebrate the role volunteers play across the region and bring together individuals and organisations in acknowledging outstanding achievements. From young volunteers to new residents, Landcare to foster carers, strong community programs to emergency recovery, nominations are open across 12 categories and recognise the remarkable efforts of volunteers, volunteer programs and volunteer-involving organisations that make our communities so vibrant. This year we are thrilled to welcome The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM as our major sponsors and are also excited to announce some fresh ideas for the 2019 awards. The first is the introduction of the inaugural People’s Choice award, which will give communities the chance to nominate their favourite individual, program or organisation from finalists. And the second is the introduction of our community roadshows. In the past we have noticed some nominators experienced difficulty completing the nomination form,

TRIBUTE: Jeff Jenkins as Bob Dylan, left, and Tom Petty, right. Jenkins and his Bob Dylan tribute act DYLANesque will play at Horsham’s Bull and Mouth Hotel next month.

INVOLVED and connected with Julie Pettett

so this year we are going out to communities across Horsham, Yarriambiack, Hindmarsh, Northern Grampians and West Wimmera municipalities to assist in answering any questions our communities might have as well as assist with the completion of the forms. Nomination forms are available online at centreforparticipation.org. au. Nominations close on March 13. Of course, none of this would be possible without the incredible support of our sponsors or our enthusiastic and dedicated working group, which has been working quietly behind the scenes to promote and engineer the awards. The 2019 Volunteering Recognition Awards will be at Horsham Town Hall on Friday, May 17. I encourage everyone to nominate a volunteer, volunteer program or volunteer-involving organisation that they think is doing an outstanding job. • Julie Pettett is Centre for Participation chief executive

DYLANesque heading to Horsham Bob Dylan tribute act DYLANesque will play at Horsham’s Bull and Mouth Hotel next month on the way to South Australia for Adelaide Fringe. The group will recreate Dylan’s 1986 concert tour with Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks, playing hits such as Hard Rain, Like a Rolling Stone, Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door, Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around, American Girl, Runnin’ Down a Dream and Edge of Seventeen.

• 16km Run or Ride • 8km Run or Ride • 5km Run, Walk or Ride (5km is on sealed road and pusher friendly)

come and see our show. We’ve done our research, we introduce each song with a story about how it was written, or what influenced it, what was happening at the time, we put the songs into context for the crowd and they love it.” DYLANesque will play at the Bull and Mouth Hotel on Friday, March 15. People wanting more information can call the hotel on 5382 1057.

N-WAL

practice specialist Paul Sanders will lead the program and certified emotional intelligence consultant Sarah Streeter will be a guest presenter. The course costs $150 and people can book a place by calling Gavin Morrow on 0418 504 985 or emailing gavin@ morrow.net.au.

Frontman Jeff Jenkins encouraged Horsham residents to attend. “Our new show appeals to a wide audience as it celebrates the music of three immensely talented artists, each with their own loyal following,” he said. “The concert tour where these three giants shared a stage is still talked about today, more than 30 years on. “If you were there in ’86, you should come and see our show – if you missed them in ’86, you should

EVs on the agenda in Canberra as key report calls for national sales targets by 2025

lectric vehicles hit the national agenda last week with the release of a Senate committee report into the tiny section of the new-vehicle market that could stimulate a rapid upswing in the number of EVs on our roads.

– has provided the strongest indication yet that extensive reform and funding commitments could now be a matter of when, not if. One of the key recommendations is that the government considers establishing national EV targets for light vehicles – passenger cars/SUVs and commercial – as well as metropolitan buses, and although it stopped short of specifying a target, the committee said it wanted to see a figure based on a percentage of vehicle sales by 2025 ‘rather than a longer term target for the complete phase-out of internal combustion engine, ICE, vehicle sales’. This figure is a hot topic for debate.

There is no indication the Coalition government or Labor party opposition will commit to the recommendations made by the bipartisan committee as the May federal election looms. However, widespread support from industry, interest groups, minor political parties and independent parliamentarians – the elected representatives urging an even tougher response

The report includes additional comments from committee chairman and independent senator Tim Storer, who is pressuring for EVs to make up 25 percent of all new light passenger motor vehicle sales by 2025. He is also pushing for 30 percent of all new light-commercial vehicle sales, and 20 percent of new metro bus sales, to be EVs by 2025. Based on the 2018 market and the 50-plus light vehicle brands that are members of the industry’s VFACTS vehicle registration reporting service – the main exception being US EV brand Tesla Motors – 25 percent of all new passenger cars and SUVs equates to a simply hard-to-fathom 218,428

EV sales. The actual figure, in an environment where there were only scant government incentives and a small rollout of new vehicles and supporting infrastructure, was 1336 electric passenger cars and SUVs – 245 cars to private buyers, 401 to companies, 195 SUVs to private buyers and 495 non-private. Tesla refuses to divulge its sales numbers, but assuming the industry ‘disrupter’ sold as many as all other brands put together, the estimated 2672 units still only amounts to 0.3 percent of the 873,713 overall sales of passenger cars/SUVs – a good 215,000 short of the committee chairman’s target for 2025.

Reality check: Around 1350 new EVs were registered in Australia last year, and if Tesla’s secret sales figures are added, the total comes to an estimated 1700. Many are now calling for firm targets that equate to about 300,000 sales by 2025. So, yes, we have a long way to go, and in a market that sold 237,972 light-commercial vehicles last year, the thought of 71,391 of these being electric – as opposed to the 16, all of them examples of Renault’s Kangoo ZE compact van – within the next seven years really stretches the imagination. – Terry Martin

New-look Triton ups safety ante

itsubishi Motors Australia Limited says it was behind the push to add a suite of advanced driver-assist systems to the facelifted fifth-generation Triton ute to make it more appealing to fleet customers.

Mitsubishi head of product planning James Tol said the Australian market played a key role in including advanced driver-assist systems, ADAS, with the ute. “We worked really hard to make that happen,” he said. “We know that certain vehicle fleets are looking at this kind of technology. “It’s actually quite a task to make sure that message gets through, because not all markets are like ours. “It was actually Australia that convinced our project team to make some changes to the development schedule of this vehicle to include those technologies on a workhorse model. “That was no mean feat because that meant doing additional development to put these technologies on vehicles that have a different wheel size. “It might sound simple, but it’s not simple. All that extra tuning burns time and development dollars up, so we’re really proud to have made that happen.” Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited, MMAL, president and chief executive John Signoriello said a lot of market research led to the company’s Triton safety push, which was mainly driven by the occupational health and safety requirements of fleet customers. “We’ve spoken to fleet clients, we’ve spoken to customers and we’ve also spoken to potential fleet clients about why we’re not successful with them,” he said. “We’re getting all that feedback and even understanding where the market’s heading, and you can see it on SUVs; all that sort of stuff is becoming standard going forward. “It’s just offering something different.” Sales of the Triton improved last year, with 24,896 examples sold – a 5.5 percent increase – but significant fleet contracts helped the bestselling Toyota HiLux, 51,705, and Ford Ranger, 42,144, stave off its challenge.

FIFTHGENERATION: Aussie fleet feedback has lead to Mitsubishi Triton’s rangewide active safety upgrade.

When asked if MMAL had been successful with securing new fleet contracts now that a safer Triton is available, Mr Signoriello said that was ‘absolutely’ the case. “We’ve won some significant fleet customers because of it, without getting too cocky about it,” he said. “I think we’ve taken the right path, and the result’s been very good.” Certain Triton variants are available with an ADAS package that includes autonomous emergency braking, AEB, with pedestrian detection and lane departure warning, as well as front foglights, dusk-sensing headlights, rain-sensing wipers and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. ADAS is standard on GLX versions of the 4x2 dual-cab pick-up and 4x4 dual-cab chassis fitted with the new six-speed torque-converter automatic transmission, but is optional on the 4x4 GLX dual-cab pick-up, costing $800. It is unavailable on the other eight GLX variants. The package is standard on the GLX+, GLS and GLS Premium grades, with the latter two also including the aforementioned blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, as well as front parking sensors with an ultrasonic miss-acceleration system. Mr Signoriello said the Australasian New Car Assessment Program’s new

safety protocols, that require AEB for a five-star safety rating, will likely mean that ADAS won’t remain optional or unavailable on some GLX variants in the long term. “I think we need to keep the option there at the moment,” he said. “But when it comes to a full model upgrade, to achieve five stars, it’s what you need. “I’d like to think that we’ve got safety across the range at some point, to the five-star level – whatever it is at that time.”

Safety first

Standard safety equipment for all Triton variants includes seven airbags, cruise control, a manual speed limiter, hill-start assist and trailer stability assist, rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. The latter is replaced with a surround-view unit in the GLS Premium. Mr Signoriello added MMAL has ‘a really good working relationship’ with Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, MMC, partly thanks to Australia being the second largest Triton market in the world, behind Thailand. “Every time I visit, I make an effort to talk to our Triton expert,” he said. “He takes our market seriously, he takes us seriously.” The Triton’s pricing has risen between $200 and $1000 for the three

club-cab variants, while the dual-cab body style has increased by $500 for the GLX, $1500 for the GLX+, $2000 for the GLS and $3000 for the GLS Premium grades. Pricing for the single-cab body style has held steady, with the entry-level 4x2 GLX cab-chassis kicking off proceedings from $22,490 plus on-road costs when fitted with the carry-over five-speed manual transmission – the only variant available with the 94kW194Nm 2.4-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine. A similarly sized turbocharged diesel unit carries over for all other variants, developing 133kW at 3500rpm and 430Nm at 2500rpm. Claimed fuel consumption on the combined cycle test is up across the board, ranging from 7.8 litres per 100 kilometres for manual club-cab diesels to 11.4L/100km for the manual cab-chassis petrol. Maximum braked towing capacity remains at 3100kg, while payload has decreased by 57-63kg, to 902-908kg, due to a corresponding increase in kerb weight, to 1992-1998kg. Standard equipment in the GLX grade includes a 6.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bluetooth connectivity, one USB port, two 12V power outlets, a multi-function steering wheel, fabric upholstery, a secondrow centre armrest with cupholders in

Robot Motors

the dual-cab, and vinyl floor coverings. GLX+ variants add 16-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 245-70 tyres, side steps, a rear-step bumper, a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two USB ports, one HMDI port, DAB+ digital radio, a multi-function display and a four-spoke steering wheel. The GLS also picks up 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 265-60 tyres, auto-levelling LED headlights, LED daytime running lights and tail-lights, a sports bar, rear privacy glass, a roof-mounted air circulator, a leathertrimmed steering wheel, handbrake and gear lever, carpet floormats, premium fabric upholstery, high-beam assist and hill-descent control. GLS Premium variants exclusively feature a rear differential lock, a tub liner, a nudge bar, keyless entry and start, heated front seats and leather upholstery. A seven-year/150,000km warranty is available on the Triton until ‘at least’ the end of the current financial year, but it could be extended if the reception is strong. The Triton is also offered with three years of capped-price servicing, costing $299 a service, every 12 months or 15,000km for diesel variants and $199 for the petrol. – Justin Hilliard

Slow start to 2019 vehicle sales

he Australian new-vehicle market continued its downward spiral in January, with sales falling 7.4 percent on the same month last year, according to official VFACTS sales data.

STILL HI: Toyota’s HiLux helped the Japanese giant go against the negative flow in January to increase company sales by 4.3 percent. in January last year – and naturally slot into the number one position, ready for a seventh consecutive year of domination. Second-placed Mazda – usually a strong performer in January when private buyers are in the ascendancy – slipped 6.2 percent, to 9490 units. This is despite having the top-selling passenger car, the Mazda3, with 2831 sales, and the best-selling SUV, the CX-5, 2347.

Like Toyota, Mitsubishi swam against the market trend by increasing sales by 26.7 percent, banking 6669 sales and a company-record 8.1 percent market share to leapfrog Hyundai into third place Hyundai suffered a troubling 12.9 percent sales decline, to 6205 vehicles, while South Korean compatriot Kia slipped up to fifth place with 4651 sales, a gain of 2.6 percent. Kia’s march up the sales ladder was

made easier by the continuing decline of the once dominant Americanowned companies, Ford and Holden, which slumped 21.7 and 27.1 percent respectively. Ford’s biggest worry will be a decline of about 20 percent in sales of its top-selling Ranger ute, which makes up half of its sales in Australia. Holden lodged a historically low market share of 5.1 percent from its 4167 sales, down from 6.5 percent in

The monthly tally of 81,994 vehicles was the lowest January total since 2012, when car manufacturers reported 76,783 sales as the market came out of the global financial crisis. All major vehicle segments – passenger, SUV and light commercials – were down, providing another indicator that the economy has hit troubled waters. Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries, FCAI, chief executive Tony Weber blamed the fall on lower levels of consumer confidence. “The current economic environment is a challenging one, with an imminent federal election, a declining real estate market and tighter lending practices,” he said. “But as they say in the classics, when the going gets tough, the tough get going.” Market colossus Toyota shrugged off the negativity to increase its sales by 4.3 percent with a fast-start push to kick off the new year. Led by the dominant HiLux ute, 3951 sales, Toyota grabbed 15,961 sales to increase its market share to 19.5 percent – up from 17.3 percent

January 2018. Despite an 11.8 percent fall of year-on-year sales, Honda made it to eighth place on the sales ladder with 4042 sales, ahead of Nissan, 3803, down 19.2 percent and Volkswagen, 3617, down 9.1 percent. SUV sales suffered a hiccup in January, with a decline of 5.1 percent over the corresponding month last year, but nevertheless increased their hold on the market to a record 43.8 percent share. And while light-commercial vehicle sales dropped 5.8 percent, these workhorses also increased their share to 19.3 percent. In the luxury car market, BMW beat arch-rival Mercedes-Benz in passenger car and SUV sales for the first time in years, with BMW notching 2060 units, down 2.4 percent to Benz’s 2034, down 29.8 percent. Mercedes-Benz Cars Australia-Pacific is blaming new European emissions rules that have caused a logjam of paperwork at head office, leaving Australian dealers short of stock in critical segments. On the bright side for Mercedes, its top-selling C-Class is back in business after a hiatus due to these paperwork problems, achieving 622 sales in January – up 26.4 percent.

O’LOUGHLIN Brian Francis (Friday)

YOUNG, Troy Ivan

16.4.1939 to 11.2.2019

O’LOUGHLIN Brian Francis “FRIDAY” 16.4.1939 - 11.2.2019 Taken from us quickly after a short battle fought well with dignity. Now at peace. He was so much to us, hard to put into words. A huge void that will never be filled but with all our wonderful memories and stories he will be around us enjoying the love and laughter as we reminisce his wonderful life. A man of faith, he had a zest for life. He was a devoted man who always shared words of wisdom, love and guidance; always encouraging with leadership and strength. A compassionate and generous man always willing to lend an ear, was a loyal and true friend and a larrikin who always loved a good story with a beer, a laugh and a singa-long. Dearly loved and valued by all family. A loving and loyal Husband, respected and supportive Father and proud Poppa.

There’s a gift in life you cannot buy, It’s very rare and true, It’s a very special gift of friendship, That as your brothers and sisters we knew, As children we grew together, As adults we went our separate ways, But it broke our hearts the day you went away. In our hearts you will be forever remembered and greatly missed by all. Our family reunions will never be the same! All our love to this very special family, Theresa, Ferne and Stacey, Gavin, Dean, Brendan and their families. Marie and David, Howard and Lorraine, Janice and Brian, Greta and Kevin, Darrell and Pam, Cathrine and John, Diane and Ian, Kerry and Wally and our families. xx

He will be missed by all who knew him.

Lost and Found!

www.mcdonaldsteelhorsham.com.au

I don’t know about you, but I spend a lot of time looking for things. I think when I get to heaven, the first thing I’ll do is go straight to the lost property box, though by that time, I reckon it won’t matter anymore! Not only do we lose things, but sometimes we get lost – not so much physically, but lost in the stresses of life, the confusion of competing voices and demands. I remember when I went to University and was confronted by all the different lifestyles, philosophies and invitations to alternatives of all sorts; it would have so easy to have got lost. It can be so easy to lose sight of who we are, where we’ve come from or what we believe. The good news is, God doesn’t lose sight of us. Jesus tells this story, “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbours together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ This is an image of how much God loves us and seeks us out. Jesus goes on to say how God rejoices in people returning to God. There’s no need for us to be lost. Talk to someone from a local church, today. Susan Pearse, Uniting Church

Tractors pull loud crowd H

BY MARK COWIN

orsham Motorsport Club’s first foray into the world of competitive tractor pulling drew one of the largest crowds to Kalkee’s Blue Ribbon Raceway.

With a week of clear weather allowing a volunteer crew to build and prepare the specially built racing surface for Down Under Tractor Pulling Association, the scene was set for a fantastic day of pulling. First out on the track were the vintage tractors. Some of these old machines were completely ‘stock’ while others had turbochargers and fuel systems tuned for better performance. It was great to see competitors getting their front wheels off the ground as the heavy sleds they dragged pulled them to a stop. One of the highlights was the appearance of Graham Pickering in his Pietsch 4WD 871-powered beast which, without a concrete wall stopping it, would have probably kept going until it hit the Murray River. As this was a non-competition event officials took no measurements, but many tractors made a full pull of about 100 metres. Modified events were on two of the three tracks. Pro Stock Open tractors had two

competitors in the event, the Cornfoot brothers Norm and Brendan both finding the going hard with mid to three-quarter track runs and Brendan not making a third run, giving Norm the win on the day and closing in on the season lead. Pro Stock tractors saw the local crew of Hicks and Wilkens with Red Devil driven by Chris Hicks against Old Smoke driven by Ainsley Magee both make three pulls. Red Devil had a commanding win which included a massive pull of 112.581 metres, keeping it well ahead in the season standings. The ‘big bangers’ of the open class featured the three-engined Plum Crazy pitted against the mighty four-engined Coyote. Unfortunately Coyote suffered a gearbox issue and was not able to compete in the first two pulls, which saw Plum Crazy and Doug Williams pull 113 metres in the second of three pulls. After battling all night to get back on track, Coyote hooked and the sound of 8000-plus horsepower rang around the track. Unfortunately it all came to an end at half track when a fuel fire engulfed the left rear engine. Driver Peter Mann was unharmed. Coyote still leads the season. Super Modifieds provided some of the closest racing on the night, with

New lights on Horsham Squash Club’s two glass-backed show courts will ensure perfect playing conditions for this weekend’s Victorian Masters Squash Association tournament. Club president Chris Warrick said the 19,000-lumin globes had improved the vision tenfold. “For VMSA officials, it was the only concern from last year’s tournament,” he said. “Our glass courts had the biggest viewing area for spectators but also the poorest lighting. “That meant we couldn’t put the best players on those courts. “This time it will be perfect for anyone who wants to come down and watch the best of Victoria’s masters in action.” Mr Warrick said he expected tournament entries to exceed last year. “So far there are entries from Western Australia, ACT and South Australia, as well as throughout Victoria,” he said. Horsham has at least a dozen entries and there are three from Donald. “Nearly everyone who played last year is returning, which is testament to how much they enjoyed our club and community,” Mr Warrick said. Dual world masters champion Tom Spark withdrew from the tournament yesterday after damaging a sciatic nerve.

TROUBLE: Kevin Delosa and Mid Life Crisis lose a wheel at a modified tractor pull at Blue Ribbon Raceway.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER David Cornfoot on $crap Value and Matt Reeves on Disorderly Conduct swapping wins. $crap Value won the first pull by less than a metre and both full pulls. Disorderly Conduct took the second and $crap Value the third and established the win by seven metres, maintaining a narrow lead on the season. Limited Modified class machines produced results where almost half their pulls went over the 100-metre full-pull mark. Shillberite won with two full pulls over Full Throttle with one full pull. Flat Stick with a full pull and a

99.263 was close in third. In Two Wheel Drive trucks Sudden Impact and Chilli Town Thunder battled all night with the full pull of the Land Cruiser, Sudden Impact, establishing the win and retaining top spot in standings. On a mini track, mini modified, super mini mods, outlaw and open minis showed that competition was not all about size. These tractors might be small in stature but with fuel-injected, super-charged and normally aspirated V8 engines they are a sight to be seen and the action was intense.

Benefits of volleyball BY DAVID BERRY

olleyball Horsham is gearing up for another big year and is taking entries for the upcoming summer season.

Volleyball Horsham is fortunate to have a loyal following with teams representing schools, corporates, communities and friendship groups participating. As much as this loyal following makes the association as strong as it is, the organisation welcomes new players every year. For people contemplating playing volleyball, following are reasons they should give Volleyball Horsham a try – • Volleyball is affordable and provides value for money. You pay as you go and not in a lump sum up front. • It is played indoors and 12 months of the year and is safe and relatively injury free. • Volleyball, an international Olympic sport, is one of the

most gender-equitable sports. Males and females, boys and girls, mums and dads, sons and daughters, uncles and aunties can all play on the same team. It is also a true team sport – everyone on the court contributes to the team’s success. • Volleyball improves your fine motor skills and coordination and is more skillbased and social rather than reliant on fitness. • Volleyball Horsham provides options for all abilities and has four grades of competition and endless opportunities to play at an elite level. It provides on and off-court pathway opportunities for players, coaches, referees and administrators. In outlining all this, anyone interested in playing volleyball in Horsham can contact info@volleyballhorsham. com.au or phone me on 0487 824 599 and you’ll be steered in the right direction and made most welcome.

Redfin biting at Fyans Stawell Angling Club members encountered inclement weather at the weekend, but fishing was definitely improving at last. Club members fished an open water event, but Lake Fyans was the drawcard with all fish being caught there. Members reeled in a total of 36 redfin, with most fish in the 30 to 40-centimetre range. Most of the fish were taken with trawling lures, with some taking yabby bait. Gudgeon is producing plenty of small fish, which is great for children. A haul of 14 redfin at a total of 455 centimetres earned LONGEST FISH: Gavin Keilar hooked a 45-centimetre Darren Smith top honours redfin to take Stawell Angling Club’s longest fish award at its from Damien Keirl, who competition at the weekend. landed 10 redfin at 321.5 cen-

timetres. Kelvin Wilson had a close battle for third, measuring four redfin at 137.5 centimetres. Gavin Keilar boated a 45centimetre redfin to take out the longest fish award. The next club outing will be at Taylors Lake for an interclub competition with Ballarat Anglers and Lake Bolac Angling Club, on February 23 and 24. The competition will be from 6am Saturday until 10am Sunday. Fish can be measured at the club’s gazebo any time or photographed on a brag mat if anglers want to release their catch back into the lake. – Ray Howard

Kealy calls for sporting club nominations Member for Lowan Emma Kealy is encouraging district sporting clubs to apply for a share of $500,000 available under a VicHealth Active Club Grant program 2018-19. Ms Kealy said grants of up to $10,000 were available to clubs, with a focus this year on increasing female participation or offering a social or modified sports program to appeal to a wider audience.

Clubs can also apply for an additional $2000 to promote the This Girl Can – Victoria campaign to women in their community. Ms Kealy said research showed female participation levels in sporting clubs was much lower than males due to a lack of suitable opportunities and difficulty prioritising physical activity over other commitments such as family, education and work. VicHealth will also fund clubs that

demonstrate how a social or modified program will attract more people to become regularly physically active. Applications close at 4pm on March 8. People seeking more information or to lodge an application can visit website www.vichealth.vic.gov.au/activeclub, call Ms Kealy’s office on 5382 0097 or email emma.kealy@parliament.vic.gov.au to arrange a letter of support.

Dimboola Roos

Dimboola aims higher in 2019 BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

fter missing the finals for the first time in years last season, Dimboola’s A Grade netballers are hoping to fight their way back into the top five in 2019.

The Roos had finished fourth or fifth every year since 2013, but slipped to sixth by a single game last season. Dimboola netball director and A Grade player Abbey Greig said the side was determined to reclaim a spot in the finals. “We’ve been fifth for the past few years, but last year we slid down to sixth,” she said. “We’ll try to get back into the finals and aim even a little bit higher than fifth. “We’re hoping we can get closer to the top three sides – the ones that are always above us – and be more competitive for more quarters. “As always, the top teams are going to be Horsham and Warrack Eagles. We always have a good tussle with Horsham Saints as well.” The Roos are set to lose last season’s goal keeper, Louisa Vague, and defender Carly Werner, who is pregnant. Ms Greig said the Roos hoped to sign former gun junior Olivia Jorgensen, who has been away for the past few seasons due to school commitments. Greig said the club would need its juniors

to take on more responsibility this season. “We’re looking at playing some juniors more and giving them a chance,” she said. “Ruby Redford played a few games last year and she might become a more permanent member of the side. “We’re looking for our juniors to step up to help the side.” Ms Greig said team chemistry and calmness in big moments would also aid the Roos. “We’re looking to become a more settled team,” she said. “There are a few of us who have been playing together for a few years, so hopefully that will help. We know each other and we know how each other plays. “Because there haven’t been too many changes we should be able to gel better as a team.” Ms Greig said the team also wanted to improve its fitness after failing to run out matches strongly last season. She said a stronger emphasis on personal fitness for all players would keep the side in games longer. “We’ve only had one training session so far, so there have been no changes to the pre-season routine at this stage,” she said. “We’re working on doing more at home and being more accountable for our own fitness away from training.”

Rain primes region BY DEAN LAWSON

Victorian Farmers Federation vice-president and Murra Warra farmer David Jochinke said conditions had primed much of the region for good results, but recovery from last season’s disastrous harvest would depend on what happened later in the year. “It will all come down to spring again,” he said. “This has been one of the more

promising starts to a season in regards to rain and forecasts. “Kaniva has probably missed out a little but as a general rule everyone else across the region has had good rain to either get their crops established or to sow with conﬁdence.” Widespread late autumn rain, heavy in some areas of the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians, represents a potential trigger for the region to emerge from two dry and poor growing seasons and drought conditions. But Mr Jochinke was cautious in his predictions of what might lay ahead. “After the past two years, anything other than what we have had would

The past couple of years have been a real kick in the guts, and we don’t what anything like that to happen again,” he said. “The feeling at the moment is positive and there is cautious optimism, but no one is getting ahead of themselves. A lot of people are hurting, carrying physical, ﬁnancial and mental scars. The whole district needs to have a solid season. “The hope is that we can have at least an average harvest and then follow on with another average year. “The problem is not having enough breathing space for farmers to get ahead and that in the long run can be

Dimboola Roos

Footy Countdown

New era for the Roos I

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

t is the end of an era in Dimboola.

For the first time in more than 20 years, erstwhile club stalwart Al McKinnon will not pull on the green and gold jumper of the Roos. McKinnon departed Dimboola for the Horsham Demons at the end of last season, closing the door on one of the most decorated careers in the history of Dimboola. McKinnon played more than 350 games, captained the team to a premiership in 2013 and coached the Roos for the past two seasons. Two men – Justin Beugelaar and Matthew Everett – will fill the coaching void left by McKinnon in 2019. Everett will coach from the bench and is currently taking the team through its paces in pre-season training, while Beugelaar plays for Darwin-based Waratah in the Northern Territory Football League. Everett said the club was adjusting to life without McKinnon. “Obviously there has been a disagreement somewhere along the line because you don’t just up and leave after playing your whole life at a footy club,” he said. “I’m not sure what it was because I was on the outer a bit last year – I was coaching the under-14s. “He’s not young, but he is super fit and looks after himself, so I’m sure he’ll be able to have an impact at Horsham. “It’s disappointing because he’s a pre-

miership captain and has played some pretty good footy over his time at ‘Dimmy’. “We’ve got some good kids coming through at the minute and his leadership is going to be missed, that’s for sure.” Everett said the club was aiming to challenge for a top five berth after claiming the past three wooden spoons. The Roos have recruited several players to aid them in their goal, including new assistant coach and midfielder Sam Godden and Timothy Mosquito, who made four appearances for the team in 2017. Both Godden and Mosquito are from Darwin but will relocate to Melbourne for the season to reduce travel time and costs. Former best and fairest winner Ben Miller will return to the club after playing for West Adelaide in the SANFL reserves last season. Brothers Ash and Tom Clugston and Matt Millward will cross to Dimboola from Jeparit-Rainbow in the Horsham District league. Everett said the club was also hopeful of retaining Josh Edgar – last season’s best and fairest – and Shannon Keam. He said players returning from injuries would also help bolster the side. “Jackson O’Neill and Jayden Lehmann both did knees in the first three rounds last year and it looks like they’ll be right to play in round one,” he said. “They’ll be like new recruits really – we didn’t have them all year. “Lochie Phillips only played a few games

last year and had to have an operation on his hand. “You couldn’t have written a script for what happened with all the injuries we had last year. “Jaye Macumber was meant to run the bench as an assistant and he got struck down with rheumatoid arthritis about three games into the year. “It was chaos, so hopefully we can have a bit more luck with our injuries. “At one stage we had seven under-17s playing in the seniors towards the end of the year, and you’re going to struggle against good sides if that’s the case, especially at Wimmera league level.” Everett said the one upside of last year’s injuries was the experience it afforded some of the younger Roos. He said if the team’s young brigade improved its ball use and learned the team structure, Dimboola could challenge for a finals spot this year.

Rupanyup Panthers

Panthers to work on improvement R

BY DEAN LAWSON

upanyup netball leaders are determined to provide strong and competitive representative teams as they busily plan for the approaching Horsham district season.

The Panthers were mid-field performers in A Grade last year, a position unlikely to sit well with the Dunmunkle outfit for too long. Club netball director Olivia Huebner, while falling short of making any bold predictions, said the Panthers were working diligently on plans to improve performances across the board. “Our challenge is to be able to match it with the competition’s leading teams. If we do that, it will hopefully translate to making the finals,” she said. Highly respected Kayla Woods, last year’s A Grade best and fairest, has been at the Panthers’ A Grade helm in the past couple of seasons and will again play a pivotal role in shaping the club’s direction. Ms Huebner said the Panthers

had been busy working on establishing a leadership structure that would benefit Woods, other coaches, players and the club overall. “Kayla has been an outstanding A Grade coach and we need to help her as much as possible to get the most out of everyone,” she said. Team structures will begin to take shape when team leaders start seriously analysing player lists from this week. “We’re pretty much going to be working on team structures from now on as we start planning out our season,” Ms Huebner said. “We’re expecting young defender Kirah House to consolidate her position in A Grade after stepping up from the juniors, and looking to others such as Blair Bourke and Sadie Slorach to have a bit of impact. “It’s very exciting and we’re looking forward to the season starting.” Rupanyup netballers again have good player numbers through-

out the various grades. The club boasted about 40 overall last year and while expecting numbers to back off slightly this season, will retain a solid selection list. “Overall philosophy is that the netball club is keen to make an impact right across the competition,” Ms Huebner said. “We’re looking forward to a good year and to improve significantly, not only in A Grade but at all levels.” Panthers football and netball president Rod Weidemann stressed that netball played a critical role in overall club resilience and success. “Our netballers are an integral part of the club, working hand-inhand with the footballers and we are pursuing success just as much on the court as we are on the footy field,” he said. “It’s all about participation and giving kids an opportunity to play in our district. “And it’s not only about kids, it’s about families – mums, dads, everyone being involved.”

Rupanyup Panthers

For the community F

BY DEAN LAWSON

ootball and netball clubs often represent the heart and soul of country towns and districts and Rupanyup in the Wimmera’s east is no exception.

Knowing the organisation you’re looking after represents the glue that binds your community is a powerful incentive. That is why Rupanyup will always be hard to bump off its course to always threaten and be competitive in Horsham district league. Panthers president Rodney Weidemann summed it up well when he said: “The club maintains its role as a very important community social driver. We have a duty to people in our district to make it as strong and competitive as possible.” When it comes to on-field results for the approaching season, a large question mark hangs over the Dunmunkle outfit. Club leaders are adopting a stoic ‘business as usual’ and ‘more of the same’ approach, but the competition is unlikely to have a clear understanding of the club’s strengths and weaknesses until just before the season starts. Jack Musgrove has returned to take charge of the senior player group as playing coach, but won’t be back from Darwin until early March.

There is plenty of speculation that when Musgrove does return to the Wimmera he will again have other Darwin players in tow. In the same breath, there is uncertainty about the availability of northern imports Denny Musgrove and Chris Parris, although the club has secured ruckman Tim Tyler, who has been in Melbourne, and speedy wingman Darby Harrison from Donald. Campbell Matthews has also made a commitment to play this year. Mr Weidemann said in terms of players, the club was in ‘neutral’ territory. “We’ve lost a few and gained a few and we’re still talking to a few others,” he said. “We’re not sure how many players are coming from the top end – much depends on work opportunities.” In Musgrove’s absence, senior assistant coach Elliott Kelly and fellow leadership group member Daniel Schaper have been leading pre-season training. “Our early signing of Jack Musgrove provided a sense of stability,” Mr Weidermann said. “We’ve also been able to place good leadership around him to provide support. “Similar to last year, our goal is definitely to try to improve, with a goal for our seniors to make the finals.

“The seconds are all about filling a competitive team, and while our under-17s will still be a struggle, our under-14 numbers are very solid. “We’re on the back of having no under-17 teams at all and how the wheel turns – we now have some young players coming through. “Juniors are the lifeblood and the hope is new rules and regulations will make circumstances better. “And while it’s important, for us it’s not all about making the finals – the main thing is to have a representative team. “We’re lucky we have great facilities and it’s great to get people out and about.” Emmetts Group is again on board as the Panthers’ major sponsor and players are building fitness through Monday and Wednesday pre-season training sessions.

Noradjuha-Quantong Bombers

Bombers to bank on a better 2019 I

BY DEAN LAWSON

f there is one thing Noradjuha-Quantong netballers are hoping for in the approaching Horsham district netball season it is a better run of luck.

The Bombers, who started pre-season with impressive numbers across the board last week, experienced a lamentable 2018, where three players suffered longterm knee injuries. Yolly Molineaux, joint A Grade coach again with Georgia Francis, said the injuries meant it was still ‘early days’ in gaining a full understanding of how the club’s blue-ribbon squad might evolve. “We are getting into our fitness and will commence team selections and game play in March,” she said. “Because of our traumatic 2018 with the three injuries, there will be a significant change to our A Grade squad this year. “We’ve managed to source a few new players and our B Grade side won the premiership last year, so we know we have the depth to

cover these losses. This also gives some others a great opportunity to step up. Personally, I’m also hoping to come back from having a baby 10 weeks ago.” Molineaux said the Bombers would approach the season with a simple aim to improve on last year. “We always aim to do better than we did the season prior,” she said. Just missing out on finals for our A Grade was devastating, so that will be a big driving force for us. “For our B Grade, it’s pretty hard to top a premiership, so continued success for them and all of us would be wonderful. “But we also want to create a fun environment for all our players, maintain variety in trainings to keep it interesting, and hopefully for our A Grade squad, have a little bit more consistency than our 2018 campaign.” Molineaux said much of Noradjuha-Quantong’s netball success was based on junior progression through the ranks. “Juniors have always been our strength, so we aim to incorpo-

rate them into seniors when they are ready to help bridge the gap between junior and senior netball. That is something we are very passionate about,” she said. Molineaux added that in preparing for the season ahead it was hard to, in early stages at least, identify strengths and weaknesses in the A Grade group based on 2018 results. “During the entire season we had 18 different players take the court for us,” she said. “The players that remain from last season have incredible resilience and adaptability. “With our B Grade being so successful it means there are players from that team that would fit well into A Grade. “This year we hope to have a good mix of youth and experience. “It’s great to see someone like Lucy Brand keep returning to our A Grade squad because she was a born and bred Noradjuha-Quantong junior. “Having her play with some experienced players has done her netball the world of good.”

Noradjuha-Quantong Bombers

‘All things positive’ F

BY DEAN LAWSON

oundations built from supporting junior programs, key recruits and an elevated level of fitness might provide the catalyst for a NoradjuhaQuantong surge in Horsham district league this year.

The Bombers have undergone solid pre-season preparations, again under the direction of coach Gareth Hose, and might have turned the corner as a finals contender. The truth is Noradjuha-Quantong only missed last year’s finals by a game and a half and there is a strong sense the club is in a much better position at this time of the year than in 2018. Hose said there was a strong, positive feeling in a player group, which had been training since November, and confirmed the senior team’s ultimate goal was to play finals. “All things are positive at this stage. We’re happy with our recruits and training has been good,” he said. “We felt we lost a few games early last year where fitness was an issue and it was one area we wanted to work on in the off season. “We’ve had a great core group working on fitness and have now picked up quite a few others, such as busy farmers and others who had been unavailable with commitments. “We want to obviously win as many games we can to go as high as we can.

“We have a good group and I’m confident the players can realise their potential. “We need to improve our consistency to win close games. Fitness helps improve that and much depends on how younger players come on.” Hose said Tom Cooper, who has joined the Bombers from Minyip-Murtoa as an assistant coach alongside Jason Kerr, had already proved invaluable. “He has brought new drills and ideas to the club and Nathan Byrne who has played with Horsham Saints also brings a high standard of football,” he said. Noradjuha-Quantong also has a wildcard recruit in highly decorated goal-kicking veteran Matt Walsh, 39, who has forged a considerable football reputation in Geelong and Queensland and is also a close friend of Hose. “We might only have him for five or six games but he’s kicked over 100 goals in Cairns, won league medals, played in seven premierships, is a four-time club best and fairest and represented Vic Country and Queensland Country,” Hose said. “He’s based in Geelong and a significant key forward, and when he does play he will bring heaps of experience and we’ll structure up well. “Our focus will be to consistently win the footy and pressure the opposition when they have the ball. “When we have it we will want to play with an attacking style. We will be more about running the ball instead of being a

tall-target team and will have to play to those strengths.” Other Bombers newcomers include young players such as Corey Williams and Clayton Jardine and a new tall in Leigh Baker. “We’ve pretty much maintained our list apart from James Hallet and Evan Dorrington and we have about seven of our under-17s graduating into full-time senior football,” Hose said. “Young blokes such as Zane Batson and Wade Francis are hanging around and others including Darcy Hogan, Jye Walter, Ryan McAlpine, Brendon Ellis and Josiah Mock are among graduates looking to establish themselves in senior footy.” Club president Tim Kelly echoed Hose’s sentiments about the club’s pre-season position. “We’ve been very happy with how everything has been rolling along,” he said. Horsham’s White Hart Hotel is again leading a group of loyal club sponsors.

Combine snares lead BY ONE SHORT

wifts-Great Western has won a battle for top spot in Grampians Cricket Association with a club-record 296run victory over Youth Club.

The Clubbers were never in the hunt, chasing 397 for victory and finishing with just 100 runs. Nic Baird again top-scored with 52 runs that took him past the 500-run mark to 518, which represents a huge chunk of the 1311 runs scored by Youth Club this season. Matt Fitzgerald was again the top bowler for the Combine with 5-25. St Andrews started its match against Pomonal at 2-12 and needing 133 for victory slumped to 6-52. But a 56-run partnership between Ben Boatman and Riley Taylor steadied the innings and the Saints were able to pass the Tigers’ score of 132 with seven wickets down. The best of Pomonal’s bowlers were Lachlan Dalkin and Tim O’Connor, with three wickets each. The result kept St Andrews’ finals aspirations alive. The remaining game saw Halls

Gap thwart Aradale’s attempt at outright victory through a bold second-innings score of 7-215. Aradale, responding to the Gappers’ first-innings 148, took its score to 6-255 before declaring, Scotty Turner, 59, Matt Fulton, 41, and Riley Wood, 37, top-scoring. Faizal Butt was the pick of the Gappers’ bowlers with 5-93. The Gappers’ second innings featured solid contributions from Luke Stevens, 40, and a 70run partnership between Charlie McIntosh, 50, and Marcus Elliot, 19. Aradale’s best bowler was Shan Chinthapalli with 3-44. In the final home-and-away round starting on Saturday, every game has an impact on the final make up of the top four. Youth Club will be after as many points as possible in a two-day clash against Halls Gap, while Buangor-Tatyoon needs to win against Swifts-Great Western to ensure a finals berth. Aradale and St Andrews will battle for a chance to play finals, with Pomonal unable to be displaced from third position. Should the Combine falter against Buangor-Tatyoon it might drop back to second spot.

LEADER: Youth Club’s Nic Baird passed the 500-run mark at the weekend. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER The Combine batsmen were in good form last round with all recognised top-order players firing. But the Tatyoon wicket has not been kind to batsmen this season, which means Michael Harricks and Lachy Oddie will be applying pressure for the home side. However, runs have been a problem for Buangor-Tatyoon

this season with Harricks and Aaron Byron carrying the batting. Halls Gap produced its best batting last week and won’t be any walkover for the Clubbers if they can carry that form to Stawell’s Central Park. Clubbers’ Nic Baird has been the batting mainstay and will be asked to do it again.

Saints in with a sniff H

BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham Saints are in a strong position to secure valuable psychological points when they resume their Horsham Cricket Association clash against Homers on Saturday.

The Saints will defend a solid 223 against the raging A Grade premiership favourites and if they win are sure to finish off the season with a strong sense of belief. Horsham Saints have already established themselves as the main challenger to Homers’ supremacy and it was again veteran opener Gary Davidson who threw down the gauntlet at the weekend. The left-hander almost played a lone hand, making 129 at Horsham Sunnyside Oval after Homers won the toss and asked the visitors to bat. Davidson was the only player to score past 20, but his knock, involving a variety of partnerships and featuring 15 boundaries, proved critical. It also took his season run tally to 593, with an average of 74.13, with two home-and-away rounds and finals remaining after Saturday. Homers, boasting a diverse bowling attack, consistently took wickets throughout the afternoon, left-arm opener Eddie Landwehr doing early damage and spinner Jason Kannar picking up 4-19. The target should, at least on form so far this season, pose few problems for the potent Pigeons’ batting list. But the score might be enough to apply rare pressure on a Homers side, which has cantered through much of the season. At the same time, Rupanyup-Minyip is in a powerful position to collect a bag of winning points against West Wimmera at Minyip. A Daniel Schaper century provided the momentum for the Blue Panthers who skipped along to 5-203 before declaring and bowling 20 overs to the visitors at the end of the day. The tactic worked a gem with the Warriors capitulating to finish 5-32 at stumps.

LET’S PARLEY: Horsham Saints centurion Gary Davidson, left, discusses tactics while sharing a partnership with his son Jackson during a Horsham Cricket Association A Grade clash in Horsham. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER All-rounder Clint Midgley snared a late 4-14 for the Blue Panthers and when the contest resumes it will be Josh Lees and Brad Keller with the initial job of keeping their opponents out. Rupanyup-Minyip will be on the hunt for outright success. Jung Tigers are also in a good position against Laharum at Horsham City Oval, but would have their sights simply on winning in the first innings. The Tigers, with Brian Jensz, 41, and An-

gus Adams, 26, unbeaten at the wicket, are 2-87 in reply to Laharum’s 139. Early in the game Laharum lost four cheap wickets, putting it on the back foot, and it was only runs to Ben Peucker, 25, and Damien Bunworth with 62 in the middle order that provided any relief. Veteran David Puls provided the bedrock for the collapse, capturing 3-24. Competition intensity is heating up as teams count down to the finals.

J&B Greenhill West Wimmera Shire

Competition is wide open Stawell Tennis Club’s Friday night competition appears wide open with just one of six sides, Stawell Toyota, remaining unbeaten. Stawell Toyota sits atop the ladder, while Frewstal suffered another heart-breaking defeat at the weekend and finds itself languishing at the bottom. Stawell Toyota recorded its second consecutive double-digit victory, this time accounting for David O Jones Mitre 10 on the back of dominant performances from its men. What Brian O’Shannessy lacks in flair he makes up for in consistency, and this was never more evident than on Friday when he methodically dismantled the opposition en route to three comfortable wins. He was well supported by club newcomer Shane Pevitt who saluted in all three sets, as did William Hackwill. Mitre 10 skipper Madi Freeland fought hard against the odds, as did youngster Elise Monaghan, however, they lacked support, eventually succumbing 10 sets 87 games to 8-77. Grampians Joinery leapt from bottom to second following a 13-5 drubbing of Delahunty Plumbing. Grampians Joinery capitalised on Delahunty Plumbing missing key personnel and Howard Dunn, Leon Monaghan, Jodie Grainger and Kate Field were big beneficiaries, dropping few games between them all night as seven players went through undefeated. Young Lewis Reading could hold his head high for Delahunty Plumbing, winning all his sets, while Simone Jardine also enjoyed a good night on court. The final score read Grampians Joinery 13-89 defeating Delahunty Plumbing 5-52. The most competitive contest of the night was between Stawell Gold Mine and Frewstal, both in search of their first wins. Despite winning nine sets each, it was Stawell Gold Mine that took home the bacon, registering an eightgame victory. Theo Browne, Andrew Dunn, Maddi Rickard and Emily Davis were outstanding for the winners, while Frewstal’s Blair Hart, Brae Scantleton, Chris Adams and Luke Monaghan tried valiantly. – Joel Freeland

Wimmera footballers step up Female Wimmera footballers have shined on the big stage during the AFLW’s third season. Ararat’s Georgia Clarke made her big-league debut for Geelong against reigning premier Western Bulldogs at the weekend, kicking a superb running goal during the third quarter. The Cats lost the match 5.4 (34) to 2.4 (16), but Clarke was elated to play her first game at AFLW level after appearing for Geelong’s VFLW side last season. Horsham’s Sophie Alexander also made her AFLW debut for Collingwood in round one against Geelong earlier this month.

Alexander experienced the highs and lows of football in a short span. She kicked the opening goal of the match and the season after a strong mark inside 50, but was concussed in a marking contest during the third quarter when team-mate Sharni Layton inadvertently collided with her. Collingwood went on to lose by one point, 3.6 (24) to 3.5 (23). Collingwood’s season will continue with a match against Fremantle at the weekend, while Geelong will play Adelaide.

s ' m a h s Hor r e e B t s e d l o C St Michaels strong ! V T t s e g & Big S IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY: St Michaels’ A Grade tennis team saw an unusual combination of players in its win against Quantong at the weekend – grandfather and granddaughter. Graham Pymer paired with granddaughter Marli Pymer during the 12-96 to 0-30 win, with the duo taking their mixed doubles set 8-1. It was the first time the pair had played together in competition.

t Michaels wrapped up the minor premiership and Kalkee and Horsham Lawn sealed finals berths in an eventful weekend of Central Wimmera Tennis Association pennant competition.

The Saints’ commanding 11-100 to 3-61 win against Haven officially sealed top spot for the competition frontrunner. St Michaels’ women were particularly dominant, winning all of their singles and doubles sets. Lachlan Punchard was a clear standout for Haven, winning both doubles rubbers he played as well as his singles bout with Bill Robertson. The loss leaves Haven in a desperate two-way battle with Drung South for the fourth finals place. The Drungsters lost a hard-fought match

against Kalkee at the weekend, going down 9-82 to 5-76. The Kees got themselves across the line in a back-and-forth contest in the singles section, with Jeff Friberg and Steve Schultz and Melissa Beddison claiming vital wins. Friberg’s singles rubber against Dylan Emmerson went down to the wire, with Friberg prevailing 8-7. Horsham Lawn continued Telangatuk East’s winless season with an 11-96 to 3-44 triumph. Courtney Price was Telangatuk East’s best performer on the day, winning all three sets she played. With two rounds remaining, Horsham Lawn will now battle Kalkee for second place, with ladder position determining home court advantage for finals.

Walsgott to represent state Horsham College Year 10 student Ella Walsgott will travel to the Sunshine Coast in May to compete at the School Sport Australia Championship. Walsgott has been picked for the School Sport Victoria state team in the 13 to 19-year-old triathlon. Walsgott has enjoyed out-

standing success as a triathlete in the past 12 months, competing at several events including the Australian Junior Triathlon Series in December. She was a nominee for Wimmera Regional Sports Assembly’s Sports Star of the Year award. In a statement, School Sport

Victoria said Walsgott’s selection was worthy of celebration, noting past School Sport Victoria team members had gone on to compete at national and international level, including Olympic Games, world championships and Commonwealth Games.

Creek driven by experience BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham basketball star Mitch Creek’s desire to earn another NBA contract will drive his career forward as he returns to the NBA G League.

Brooklyn Nets released Creek from his second 10-day NBA contract after star Caris LeVert returned from a months-long injury hiatus and the Nets traded for centre Greg Monroe, requiring an extra roster spot. During his two-week stint with Brooklyn, Creek appeared in four games, averaging 3.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.3 steals per game on efficient 50 percent shooting from the floor. Creek did not commit a turnover in more than 36 minutes of court time. His best game came against the Milwaukee Bucks on February 4. Creek finished with eight points, five rebounds and four assists in more than 15 minutes off the bench. Creek also had the opportunity to defend Bucks superstar and NBA most valuable player candidate Giannis Antetokounmpo, pressuring him into a turnover on one possession. Creek will now return to Brooklyn’s

development team, the Long Island Nets, in the G League until the end of the season, unless he is offered a contract by another NBA team. Creek posted a photograph on social media of himself guarding Antetokounmpo, who is nicknamed ‘Greek Freak’, with the hashtag #CreekFreak. He said he was more driven than ever to return to NBA level. “Relighting the flame bigger than ever inside – new journey starts now,” he said. In an interview with American sports media company ESPN, Creek said he had thoroughly enjoyed his NBA experience. “I’m having a blast,” he said. “It’s a pretty cool feeling to call yourself an NBA player and run up and down and play against Giannis Antetokounmpo, play against Jaylen Brown, play against Al Horford, Jayson Tatum. “I had a lot of people say, ‘you’re not good enough’ and still to this day, but at the end of the day, I trusted myself and I can go home with my head held high and my hands in my pockets whistling away going ‘it’s a pretty sweet ride’.”

Horsham soccer clinic a success Forging friendships and pathways between players and clubs was the aim of a two-day soccer clinic in Horsham. Horsham and District Soccer Club partnered with Ballarat City Football Club Academy for the occasion, which involved qualified football coaching staff taking young Wimmera players through their paces.

Hogan said the clinic had been a fabulous experience. “Hopefully it is the start of a strong partnership between not only the Horsham and District Soccer Club but the Wimmera generally for players and coaches,” she said. Ballarat City Football Club football director James Robinson said it was exciting to support not only the player pathway but also the coach pathway in Horsham and surrounding areas. “This is a long-term commitment from both clubs and one that will

Athletes line up for 20th triathlon H

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham Triathlon celebrated its 20th anniversary with an uptick in the number of entrants and a good day of racing at the weekend.

More than 60 adults and 30 juniors competed individually, while several teams also entered. After early-morning rain the weather cleared, and entrants enjoyed a pleasant but windy day of racing. Race director Mark Pumpa said it had been a perfect way to celebrate 20 years of the Horsham Triathlon. “Conditions were pretty good,” he said. “The winner didn’t set a course record, but he had a pretty good time. The kids races were really good as well.” Melton’s Liam Green was the open men’s champion, completing his swim, cycle and run in 1.02.14 hours. He beat Ron Thomas and last year’s winner Steve Gray, who finished with times of 1.04.28 and 1.04.59 respectively. Rebecca Cladingboel edged out multiple-time women’s champion Kelly Miller by nearly four minutes, finishing in 1.05.50 to Miller’s 1.09.30. “It was good to see a new female champion,” Mr Pumpa said. “She just beat Kelly Miller, but Kelly was in training for Geelong this weekend so she hung back a little bit and didn’t give it 100 percent.” Horsham’s Ethan Jolley took out the men’s short-course triathlon in 34 minutes and 37 seconds, and Sophie Robinson was the women’s

winner in 46.20. Toby Wilkins and Sarah Netherway were junior long-course triathlon male and female champions with times of 21.37 and 23.33 respectively. Cam Belleville was the boys junior shortcourse champion in 13.43 and Amber Schellens won the girls section in 13.52. Kynan Estsinowsky took out the boys mini duathlon in 12.32 and Sienna Mansera won the girls section in 15.04. Mr Pumpa said Tri Horsham, the governing body of the Horsham Triathlon, was already looking forward to next year’s event. “I’ve been involved with the triathlon since day one,” he said. “Every year has been a great success. Next year for our 21st birthday we’re going to have a big celebration.” Mr Pumpa said his favourite part of organising the triathlon was giving back to the Horsham community. “With the money we’ve made out of it we’ve helped support Simone O’Brien get over to the United States for a marathon,” he said. “We’ve given a few women $500 to race overseas in Ironman events. “We’ve donated $2000 to the Blue Ribbon Foundation and we’re going to donate again to them this year. “Our money that we make, we don’t just spend it on ourselves, we utilise it to create good things around the community. “It’s been a good journey for 20 years and it’s still going, which is fantastic.”

Sheer grunt A thick burst of black diesel smoke spews from the exhaust of a Wolverine Deer 2 tractor as driver Norm Cornfoot demands action from his machine at Blue Ribbon Raceway at Kalkee, north of Horsham. The Wolverine was among many powerhouse tractors that kept a large crowd enthralled at a Down Under Modified Tractor Pulling Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tractor pull on Saturday. The event was the first tractor pull at the Kalkee raceway. Story, more pictures, page 46. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER
