Membership appeal O

BY DEAN LAWSON

ne of Horsham’s busiest community-events organisations has appealed for membership support to help build momentum for a surge out of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Horsham Agricultural Society, needing a strong financial base to present large-scale community attractions, has put uptake of individual membership forward as a potential ‘insurance policy’ in moving forward.

Society executive officer Andrea Cross said the organisation was acutely aware of the stress the pandemic was having on businesses and other traditional sponsors that usually provided financial support for events and

was loath to add to that anxiety. “It is quite distressing. We have five major events coming up in the next eight months and we need financial backing to make them work. But to be honest, I don’t have the intestinal fortitude to ask sponsors for too much help considering circumstances,” she said.

“Government support grants have been welcome to make improvements to our grounds, but it’s the community backing we need. You can’t help but feel awkward when asking for people to chip in, but the truth is if we could get 1000 people to buy a $55 membership that would get us through.”

Horsham Agricultural Society, in acknowledging the strong connection agriculture has on the broader district community, has dramatically expand-

ed a traditional farm focus to reflect contemporary rural and regional life.

It has used its primary asset and headquarters Maydale Reserve, on the banks of the Wimmera River at Horsham Showground, to pursue the direction with a variety of communityinspired events, many with an agricultural theme, which fulfills the purpose of the organisation’s mission statement. The transformation has led to the society developing events-promotion as a key part of its operations.

Mrs Cross said a primary motivation for the direction was a need for Horsham district people to have opportunities to embrace a variety of events and activities and to appreciate and exploit what the Wimmera had to offer.

“We developed our strategic plan

in November 2019 and started to meet our targets. For many months since we’ve been living in a pandemic. I think that’s worth celebrating and community buy-in is essential to maintain our presence in the future,” she said.

“Right now, when it’s been so hard to have events, we’ve still been able to reorientate ourselves to provide an events centre rather than just a place that has the Horsham Show.

“Maydale Reserve lends itself to a suite of activities across a wide range of interests. We cater to the things our community wants. In all the events we host or support, we provide something for everyone.

“We can only do so much with a 300-person limit at the moment and

when we are able, we want to be in a position to bring everyone together.

“I’m wearing my heart on my sleeve a bit here. Nobody likes asking for or getting asked for money, but we feel we’re in a position of sitting on a wonderful asset and when we get the all-clear to provide the setting and environment for events, we can kick our community back into life,” she said.

“And yes, I suppose what I’m talking about is financing a communityevent insurance policy for Horsham.

But we have projects in the top drawer and have people calling from across Australia who want to run events here.

We are identified for our potential in having both indoor and outdoor event centres right in the heart of Horsham.”

Project to help Horsham stay green R

BY DEAN LAWSON

egional water managers are working closely with Horsham Rural City Council to identify ‘greening’ opportunities involving an expanded use of recycled wastewater.

Work on a $10-million water-recycling project in Horsham is scheduled for completion within two years, providing the regional city with new cost-efficient and readily available alternative supply.

As a result, projects such as turning Horsham Public Cemetery into greenbelt parkland in Horsham North and a watering guarantee for various sporting reserves and community parklands and gardens during dry weather are among potential winners in the development.

Confirmation of $4.9-million in Federal Government funding, along with matching State Government money through Agriculture Victoria and GWMWater, provided a go-ahead for the Horsham Agriculture SmartWater and Integrated Water Management Project.

The project is about building and using latest infrastructure and technology to dramatically reduce salinity and turbidity issues limiting the use of recycled water in Horsham.

Guaranteeing greater certainty for thirsty research projects at Agriculture Victoria’s Horsham SmartFarm at Vectis anchors the project.

It also opens the door for greater flexibility in Horsham district urban and industry access to high-quality non-drinking water.

GWMWater managing director

Mark Williams said while the project’s primary focus was providing high-quality recycled water for agricultural research, Horsham overall would be a major beneficiary.

“In the past we have been limited by available infrastructure to provide high-quality recycled water for Horsham’s green areas rather than using treated drinking water from storages,” he said.

“High-quality recycled water represents a sustainable alternative supply to provide additional water security to the municipality.”

Mr Williams confirmed GWMWater had worked with the Horsham council to identify re-use opportunities, providing both ‘sustainable and cheaper access to water’.

“It’s possible with appropriate infrastructure that we could supplement

existing water supplies for Horsham Racecourse and local sporting grounds and parks in line with relevant Environment Protection Authority guidelines,” he said.

“Recycled water could even be blended with stormwater or a rural supply to open opportunities for alternative water supplies for Horsham Public Cemetery and school ovals, particularly during dry periods when many of those green areas tend to struggle.”

Mr Williams said the project would generally help with management of excess treated wastewater at the Horsham plant.

He said the project, part of a National Water Grid construction program, would also provide a case study for application of similar projects in other locations.

Appeal for members

Extra time to ‘polish’ St Brigid’s College students are refusing to allow a last-minute COVID-19 lockdown to ruin their chances of taking to the stage this year, as they look to present the school’s first production since 2019.

The college will perform Midsummer Jersey – a re-telling of Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream, set on the boardwalk of a seaside town in modern-day New Jersey – from September 16 to 18.

The show was originally scheduled for August 6 and 7, with an additional performance added to the rescheduled dates.

Teacher and director Vicki Thomas said despite the change in plans, preparations were progressing well.

“We haven’t been without our hurdles, because we’ve had lockdown and everything else, but we’re very grateful for the fact we’re able to get alternative dates and go into the town hall in week 10,” she said.

Mrs Thomas said students were thrilled to reschedule the production, the culmination of months of work.

“I know the kids are feeling a lot more excited now knowing that it’s looking like it will definitely go ahead and they can polish what they’ve been working on,” she said.

“There’s lots of gaps in between, with rehearsals, and that’s been a problem, but ev-

Wednesday, August 18, 2021

erything has been suffering a little bit with COVID, so we’re not any different really.

“The extra time helps with rehearsals, it helps with getting costumes finished off, it just helps to polish the whole performance, which we’re really grateful for.”

Mrs Thomas said the students had shown significant resilience throughout the pandemic, which had created plenty of uncertainty around everything from learning circumstances to events.

“I’m really, really proud of them and how they’ve remained committed to it,” she said.

“They’re not giving up – none of us are, we’re so determined to make sure this happens. We need it, the school needs it, the kids definitely need it, but I think the community needs it.

“I think it’s so important to see life does go on, that COVID can’t stop absolutely everything.

“We just need to maintain that optimism for a really nice and bright future.”

The college will present Midsummer Jersey at Horsham Town Hall on September 16, 17 and 18 at 7.30pm.

People can visit hthpac.sales. ticketsearch.com/sales/sales event/13543 to buy tickets for the Thursday night show, with other performances sold-out.

GWMWater, Agriculture Victoria and the Department of Environment Land, Water and Planning, with support from Grains Research and Development Corporation, Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnerships and Wimmera Integrated Water Management Forum are involved in the project.

The Commonwealth’s National Water Grid funding will allow for construction of a dissolved air-floatation plant; a reverse-osmosis plant and a power substation to support 24-hour electricity needs; two storage dams; an automated precision flood-irrigation system and highly controllable spray irrigators for leaf-soil wetting; and new connecting pipelines, pump stations and other associated infrastructure.

JERSEY SURE: St Brigid’s College will push ahead with its Midsummer Jersey production, which has been rescheduled for September 16, 17 and 18. Pictured rehearsing are, clockwise from top left, Bailey Eder, Holly Luciani, Larissa Barber and Grace Hermans.

From page 1 “I know we’re asking for trust in our ability and assets. But we’re sure, based on what we’ve already been able to achieve and deliver, that we’re ideally placed physically in the heart of Horsham and ideally placed in the events market place to produce everything from yard-dog trials to a dinner on the river and of course our annual show,” Mrs Cross said.

She said the dilemma of preparing for this year’s Horsham Show, scheduled for September 25 and 26 and amid news of other groups abandoning regional shows, had prompted her to consider alternative ways forward.

“At this stage we’re hanging onto our show by the fingernails and all the uncertainty has meant we’ve been tentative in approaching businesses for much-needed sponsorship and support. Some are doing it pretty tough,” she said.

“So perhaps a dramatic increase in memberships?

“It pains me to call for financial support in such tight circumstances, but if we had a large response we would basically cover what we need – at least for the relative short term.”

The number of traditional annual crowd-based community events across the region is again rising on a COVID-19 pandemic casualty list.

Agricultural and pastoral societies have already cancelled Stawell, Dimboola, Warracknabeal and Nhill shows this year.

Heating opportunity ‘We’ve been using it since we bought the place all those years ago.’

‘It doesn’t do a great job, can be hot to touch or smelly, makes a few odd noises when cranking up and it costs a pretty penny to run.’

‘But it’s all we have and it gets pretty cold in winter and it’s all we have.’

Sound familiar?

It could well be the type of conversation many of us have when we click on that ancient 1970s gas heater, old suspicious mobile radiator or fire up that inconvenient, outdated and inefficient wood burner.

Or perhaps you have never had a good heater and spend wintry nights frozen in front of the television covered in so many layers you can hardly move.

Sure, being constantly cold and even exposed to old heating technology has a variety of health concerns.

But the wallet, pocket and bank account can always seem a bit lean to take the plunge and update our heating systems.

It is an issue of which authorities are well aware and now owner-occupier households with an approved concession card, or with a combined household income of less than $90,000 can apply for relief.

There are a few boxes to tick, but eligible homeowners can apply for a $1000 State Government rebate to help with the cost of installing energy-efficient reverse-cycle air-conditioners.

There are 250,000 rebates available to people keen to replace their old gas, electric or wood-fire heaters or to install a system in a home where heating has

ENERGY EFFICIENT REBATE: Stuart Jose demonstrates Daikin split systems at Wade’s.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER never existed.

The Home Heating and Cooling Upgrades Program is a scheme Wimmera heating, cooling and energy-saving specialist Wade’s is keen for the region to know about and understand.

Managing director Adrian Wade stressed that Wimmera people had as much right as anyone in the state to apply for the financial incentive and encouraged them to consider the opportunity.

“Government schemes like this are there to support policy in promoting community ideals. Sometimes it’s based on reducing carbon emissions and energy use.

“Other times it’s about promoting socio-economic or community health and providing everyone with an opportunity to access developing technology,” he said.

“This rebate scheme ticks many of the boxes and with limited rebates available it is important Wimmera residents realise what they can apply for.

“I’m not revealing any secrets in saying it can get very cold or very hot in the Wimmera.

“We have a very clear understanding of how this scheme works and the right sort of reverse-cycle air-conditioning systems for many different circumstances.”

The Home Heating and Cooling Upgrades Program is designed to help low-income and vulnerable households increase their ‘thermal comfort’.

Increasing thermal comfort is about keeping homes warm in winter and cool in summer and the value of this from a health perspective needs little explanation.

Under the program, eligible households can receive $1000 towards the cost of an energy-efficient reverse-cycle air conditioner; $200 towards the cost of decommissioning an outdated gas heater as part of a replacement project; and $500 towards the cost of upgrading a switchboard if needed for the installation of a rebated reverse-cycle air conditioner.

Eligibility for the rebate is at the core of an application. To be eligible households must be replacing gas, fixed-electric or wood heaters or installing a heating system for the first time.

Replacement must be with an energy-efficient reverse-cycle air conditioner.

As well as fitting in the owner-occupier and household income criteria, they must also install an air-conditioners from a Home Heating and Cooling Upgrades Program approved products list and suppliers, Again, Wades can help with all the paperwork but for independent piece of mind people can visit government website www.heatingupgrades.vic.gov.au for more detailed information about the program and how to apply. They can also call 1300 376 393.

As energy technology rapidly advances, the depth of knowledge the team at Wade’s is accumulating is staggering.

The business is not leading a charge towards adaptation and innovation, but also ensuring the Wimmera is at the front of the pack.

Check if you are eligible for a $1,000 rebate towards new energy-efficient reverse-cycle heating.

Water still pooling at Hindmarsh A

BY DEAN LAWSON

lake within a lake continues to form at Lake Hindmarsh at Jeparit as water from a sodden catchment makes its way down the Wimmera River.

More than 10 gigalitres, or 10,000-million litres, have passed Jeparit weir into the first of the region’s two great terminal lakes, which when full holds 430 gigalitres.

The amount of water in the lake is the equivalent to combined full Green and Dock lakes near Horsham.

Wimmera Catchment Management Authority, constantly monitoring the river, recorded the figures late last week.

Authority chief executive David Brennan said almost 500 megalitres a day contin-

ued to flow in the river through Horsham, while upper-catchment areas had eased to 150 to 200 megalitres a day.

“There are still more flows coming through the system and putting some water into Lake Hindmarsh,” he said.

“Such is the expanse of Lake Hindmarsh that the water appears like a large pond and of course we’re unsure how long the flows will last.”

During the rare occurrence when Lake Hindmarsh fills, water spills into Outlet Creek and runs into Ross Lakes and ultimately Lake Albacutya near Rainbow.

Despite watering Lake Albacutya being a primary incentive to generate water savings through Wimmera-Mallee Pipeline construction, it has been several decades since water reached Albacutya.

In the past 20 years there have been

60 percent less inflows into Wimmera headworks reservoirs than the long-term average and a 2011 Wimmera River flood, despite being one of the largest on record, filled only two-thirds of Lake Hindmarsh.

Mr Brennan said while weather forecasts showed little extensive rain on the immediate horizon, the hope was that intermittent showers kept the system damp.

“It would be then still primed for the next band of rain as we approach spring, which is often, based on long-term averages, when the best in-flows in the catchment occur,” he said.

“We’ve had some water go into Green Lake near Horsham and even a small amount sneaking in the mouth of Natimuk Lake. Hopefully we can get some more inflows into our high-profile lakes.”

‘Overwhelming response’ to blanket drive Horsham’s Ss Michael and John’s Primary School students have been busy collecting blankets to provide extra warmth for people who are struggling.

Teacher Alison McKinnon said the school’s Vinnies ‘blanket drive’ had received an overwhelming response.

“Normally at this time of year we have a gifting mass, but because we haven’t been allowed to have crowds at church and things like that, the pastoral team decided they had to look at something else to help the community,” she said.

“The Vinnies blanket drive sounded easy and it was. There’s too many to count – there’s been an amazing response.”

Mrs McKinnon said the students enjoyed participating in the project.

“They got to design posters and put them around the school, do advertising and make sure it went in the newsletter,” she said.

She said they were also in charge of collecting and storing blankets and other winter items, such as beanies.

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

Vinnies Horsham’s Pat Strachan and Margaret Howison visited the school to collect the donations and thank staff and students.

Mrs Strachan said the blanket drive was part of the Vinnies Winter Appeal.

“Because of COVID we haven’t had anything, so it’s just a general appeal that’s gone out through the church and there’s been a very good response, financially,” she said.

“The blankets will go to the homeless and people in need. Due to COVID a lot of people have been out of work and are finding it hard to meet their usual obligations of daily life.”

Mrs Howison said the pandemic had increased demand for winter items.

“With COVID, people seem to be moving about a bit more, changing their accommodation and what have you, because accommodation has been very difficult,” she said.

“As they move, they often leave a lot of stuff behind because they can’t take it with

them, so they come requesting all sorts of furniture and blankets and linen.”

Vinnies, or St Vincent de Paul Society, is a lay Catholic organisation working towards a ‘more just and compassionate society’.

The organisation provides crisis accommodation and a wide range of support services throughout Australia. The Horsham branch operates an opportunity shop in David Street.

Mrs Strachan said she was pleased to visit the primary school, to explain some of the organisation’s work.

“This is marvellous because we’re going to talk to the children about homelessness,” she said.

“We do have a few homeless people in Horsham, so a blanket or a tent or something like that is very useful.”

UPGRADES TO ALEXANDRA GARDENS WALKING TRACK

ARARAT OPENS NEXT ROUND OF FAÇADE GRANTS Following the success of the previous round of Façade Grants, applications are now open for businesses to revitalise their shop fronts.

“We had a local painter carry out the paintwork so it’s a really nice way to give back to other businesses in our community as well.

Valued at up to $5,000 on a 1:1 contribution basis, the Façade Grants will help local businesses restore the town’s incredible heritage buildings and refresh their stores.

“Council staff was really easy to work with and answered any queries I had on colour choice - the whole experience was wonderful and would encourage other businesses to take advantage of the grants.

The funds can be used to renovate the exterior of the building or storefront, including painting, cleaning, repairs to structural elements, signage works or store lighting visible from the street.

Over the past three years, Council has allocated over $143,000 towards the Façade Grants program, bringing life back to the centre of town and creating new jobs.

Works to upgrade part of the walking track at Alexandra Gardens are complete.

In the last round of grants, 26 applications were successful in attaining support towards their projects, including owner of Ararat skin clinic SKINCO, Sarah Holland.

Local construction company Smith & Wil along with Council Staff have worked on the project. The team has added an asphalt surface to a section of the pathway located on the west side of the lake.

“We’ve been contemplating painting the front of the shop for a while now and once the Façade grants opened, it was such a great opportunity to cut your costs down which is what enticed us to do it,” said Ms Holland.

Chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said the paving project will be a boost for residents and visitors.

“The building was white which made it more costly to maintain. My husband and I decided to go with a darker grey colour, which gives the building a more modern look.

“Our parks and gardens play an important role in fostering happy, healthy and active communities,” said Dr Harrison.

“We want the community to be able to enjoy our parks, part of this is ensuring we’re looking out for the health and safety of the park.

“Council understands that the existing earthen path is prone to flooding and can be slippery after rainfall.

“Adding asphalt paving to the path will improve the gravel walking track, making it safer and more accessible for the community.

“So far, 680m2 of the walking path has been transformed to asphalt. We’re continuing to explore ways of improving our green spaces to make them safer and encouraging our community to participate in physical activity outdoors, more often,” he concluded.

“There’s a positive vibe among other business owners about the changes happening down the main street too, especially with the addition of the dividers and seeing the streets come to life.”

“It’s amazing what a coat of paint does for a storefront.

We’re thrilled with the outcome -- the building has kept its heritage feel, yet feels more modern and on brand with my business.

“With a fresh coat of paint, I feel my business is standing out more than it used to, especially with visitors who are passing through.

We must think clearly

C

ommon sense! It is invariably something which most of us, at some stage or another, can struggle to grasp.

This ‘condition’ can arrive from a position of us simply being ill-informed, lazy or arrogant, or at the other scale, overlooking what is obvious amid a cloud of philosophical theory, process and bureaucracy. It often gives rise to terms such as ‘can’t see the forest for the trees’.

Lacking or ignoring common sense can, in some cases, have little consequence. But in others, it can be downright dangerous – not only to the individual, but also friends, family, communities, businesses, industries and society as a whole.

EDITORIAL

By Dean Lawson

Common sense sits at the core of understanding what is right and wrong, fundamental to establishing healthy direction, protocol, process and rules and can sometimes transcend what isn’t completely covered by regulation and law.

During the COVID-19 pandemic we’ve seen all sorts of examples of what we might describe as a lack of common sense.

Some might argue this has happened generally with various po-

litical approaches in dealing with the pressing hazard, especially in the early days of the virus spread.

But we are perhaps seeing the most dangerous threat of this condition from people who refuse to accept health-expert science and analysis about the devastation that comes with COVID-19.

Common sense suggests we should avoid, be highly aware of, handle with care and do all we can to beat something, that by nature and based on averages, has enormous potential to randomly kill or maim us and the way we want to live, work and play.

Arrogance and ignorance, coupled with frustration, are presenting themselves as erosive enemies as Australia tries to manage virus outbreaks through

restrictions until broad vaccination provides greater collective protection.

They are fuelling a deterioration in common sense in those rare individuals who somehow fail to grasp that organising large gatherings, parties and so on in hot-spot areas of tight lockdown present all sorts of health and socio-economic dangers.

The pandemic is incredibly tough for many and having common sense is perhaps our most under-rated of valuable fall-back weapons in this fight – not only for our politicians, scientists, professionals and community commentators – but also the average Joe and Jill of society.

Event date changes Latest COVID-19 restrictions have led to event organisers postponing or changing dates for major Hindmarsh Shire events.

Event leaders behind a Wimmera Steampunk Festival at Dimboola, originally scheduled for September 4, are working on a new date for the event and a Rainbow Desert Enduro at Rainbow will now be on September 25 and 26.

The steampunk festival organising committee, working with Hindmarsh Shire Council, will determine a new date when a cap on outdoor events lifts from 300 people.

The Rainbow enduro, part of a BFGoodrich Motorsport Australia Off Road Championship series, was originally scheduled from August 27 to 29.

Hindmarsh Shire Council, meanwhile, has invited the public to book limited seats for an afternoon with Nhill Olympic gold medallist Lucy Stephan at Nhill Memorial Community Centre from 4pm to 5pm tomorrow.

Live attendance is strictly limited due to COVID-19 restrictions. An RSVP on 5391 4444 to reserve a seat is essential. No seats will be available on the day without pre-booking and a limit of two people per booking applies. The council will also stream the afternoon on its Facebook page.

Does this camera belong to you?

Toolondo resident Rachael Fear wants to reunite a lost camera with its owner after discovering the item hanging off a tree branch.

Ms Fear said she was walking her pet lamb by Lake Toolondo when she spotted the camera ‘glimmering in the sunshine’.

“It’s been sitting down here since about 2015,” she said.

“It used to be under water here.”

Ms Fear said she was able to extract the Nikon camera’s memory card and access the images.

“They are beautiful images of the lake and a couple of the harvests around,” she said.

“I want to find the owner, because someone has come down here and obviously seen the beauty in the lake that we see and has taken some beautiful photos.

“So hopefully it’s matched up with its owner really soon so that they can remember when we had water in the lake, in 2015.”

Ms Fear said people could contact her via Facebook by searching facebook.

Kealy warning on scamming

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy is warning people across the region about phone scams after a large number of people contacted her about attempted scamming efforts via mobile phones.

Ms Kealy said some instances involved text messages ‘with multiple spelling mistakes so easy to spot’, while others were phone calls from overseas numbers.

Ms Kealy said she personally received four international calls in one day from the United Kingdom, Russia, Thailand and Belarus and answered none, presuming all were part of the scams.

Ms Kealy reminded people of simple rules to avoid phone scammers.

“If you don’t know the number, don’t answer it.

They’ll leave a message if they really want to talk to you. Then you can choose whether to call them back,” she said.

“Never share your bank details over the phone.

If you’re not sure whether the call is legitimate, ask for their number then end the call. You can then either check the number matches the call display or check it against publicly listed numbers for any registered company.

“If you do answer the phone, ask for the caller’s name, company name and phone number – a legal requirement to provide – and record the time of the call. You then have everything you need to lodge a scam report. Most scammers will just hang up when asked these details.”

Ms Kealy said there were also three responses available to people tormented by scammers.

She said these were to make a report to ScamWatch at website www.scamwatch.gov.au; report spam to the Australian Communications and Media Authority, ACMA, by forwarding SMS or MMS spam to 0429 999 888 or forwarding email spam to report@submit.spam.acma.gov.au; or contacting your telecommunications provider for advice on spam filtering or phone blocking.

Ms Kealy said she had reported her calls to ScamWatch and had contacted ACMA regarding the spike in scam activity, and Telstra to ascertain if it was aware of the spike in scamming and how it was responding.

Money for roads

­

Federal Government money will flow into the Wimmera for safety upgrades and improvements on four regional roads.

Member for Mallee Anne Webster said the funding would support ‘shovel-ready’ construction for widening Horsham-Kalkee, Dimboola-Rainbow, Nhill-Jeparit and Murtoa-Glenorchy roads.

“This vital funding provides a critical boost to local jobs and the economy in an uncertain environment and also delivers life-saving upgrade works to keep people safe on our roads,” she said.

“A total of $10,224,000 will be shared across Mallee to fund new road-safety upgrades and improvements to help reduce fatalities and serious injuries occurring on our roads.

“The most important thing we can do for our community is ensure we all get home safely.

“About 1200 people die and 40,000 are seriously injured on our roads each year.”

TRIBUTE: Family of late Wimmera doctor and medical services director Alan Wolff has asked people wishing to express condolences to make a donation to Wimmera Health Care Group.

A lasting legacy

F

amily of the late Alan Wolff OAM has asked people keen to express their condolences to do so in the form of a donation to Wimmera Health Care Group.

Professor Wolff died last week aged 69, following a battle with illness.

His legacy to Wimmera health care spanned 37 years, a contribution that earned him Order of Australia recognition during Queen’s Birthday Honours this year.

Professor Wolff, forced into retirement by illness, was originally from Melbourne and with his wife Yvonne Cymbalist – also an award-winning and long-practising Horsham doctor – moved to Horsham in 1984.

He told The Weekly Advertiser in June that he and his wife, who raised two children in Horsham, had initially moved to the Wimmera for training and had intended to stay for only a handful of years.

“The town has been very supportive – it was one of the things that attracted me to Horsham – a place where you could do projects that were of benefit to the community. It’s a pleasant place to live,” he said.

Professor Wolff’s achievements, roles and contributions to medicine were comprehensive.

He was Wimmera Health Care Group medical services director from 1984 to 2020, its Clinical Pathway Program founder in 2000, Limited Adverse Occurrence Screening Program founder in 1989 and remained a general practitioner.

In his work with the Department of Health

Services Victoria he was a member of Victorian Quality Council from 2001-2008 and Clinical Risk Management Reference Group and Sentinel Event Review sub-committee for nine years. He was also a founding member of Limited Adverse Occurrence Screening, LAOS. His professional appointments included Clinical Professor with Deakin University’s Faculty of Health and being co-author of Enhancing Patient Care: a practical guide to improving quality and safety in hospitals, with Sally Taylor in 2009.

He led a Commonwealth Department of Health and Family Services Medical Records Review, Integrated Quality Management Model Program as part of a National Hospital Outcomes Program and a Fellow of Royal Australasian College of Medical Administrators, 2010, and Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.

His broader community involvement included membership with Rotary Club of Horsham East.

Wimmera Health Care Group this year renamed Wimmera Medical Centre the Alan Wolff Medical Centre, in his honour.

Donations will go towards training and educating interns and registrars – always a passion of Professor Wolff.

People can make donations in cash or by cheque or direct deposit and visit website whcg.org.au/ donations-media-events/donations-to-whcg to complete a donation form.

They can also address cards of condolence to Medical Administration, Wimmera Health Care Group, 83 Baillie Street, Horsham 3400.

Open until 6pm weekdays and noon on Saturdays

“July samples suggest that any potential water issues that might have been present in March are now considered low risk due to the overall improvement of water quality,” he said.

“The latest laboratory results indicate algal levels are within acceptable levels, however, as with any water body, there are still a range of organisms present. It is still possible some people might experience skin irritations due to the low water levels and presence of natural organisms in freshwater lakes.”

GWMWater will continue regular monitoring of the lake.

GWMWater declared the lake open late last week based on results of water sampling.

The corporation closed the lake in March as a precaution after reports of people experiencing skin irritations from contact with lake water.

Tests at the time were unable to determine an exact cause.

GWMWater managing director Mark Williams said the amount of water in Lake Wallace had increased following recent rain.

Rebekah humbled to be a finalist A

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

burgeoning Horsham pest-management leader is in the running for a prestigious Professional Women in Australian Pest Management Excellence Award.

Rebekah Pfeiffer is among six finalists for the 2021 accolade, which honours a woman within the industry who ‘has not only shown outstanding leadership but has dedicated their time and energy in making notable contributions to development and growth within the industry’.

Ms Pfeiffer said she was humbled to be a finalist.

“It’s actually a little awkward for me as I prefer to sit in the background,” she said.

“I love what I do and the team I work with so it’s nice they have nominated me. They are an awesome crew of individuals.”

Ms Pfeiffer was first exposed to the pest-management industry about eight years ago and became directly involved five years ago, after taking up a position at Bug R Off Pest Busters in Horsham.

“My role is extremely varied, from office manager, franchising officer and being a licensed termite and timber technician,” she said.

“This year, after much encouragement from ‘Australia’s most experienced dog trainer’ Steve Austin to bring our termite-detection dog training in-house, I now do this also.”

Ms Pfeiffer has completed scent-detection training with dogs – an intensive course – and has now trained her first termite-detection dog.

“Missy was my first detection dog and has been a model student,” she said.

“I can now not only train the Bug R Off detection dogs, I can also deliver another option to the pest-control industry – providing more affordable options for companies looking to purchase detection dogs.”

Ms Pfeiffer said the business had also diversified product testing options.

“After attending a large chemical company’s trial site in January, we set up our own here locally, allowing us to trial products in our climate and conditions,” she said.

“This is beneficial so when clients ask how we know products work we can actually say we have tested them in our own climate to ensure the best outcome for their individual circumstances.”

Ms Pfeiffer said she loved her job, particularly the variety it offered.

“I love being able to go out on the job with my husband Steve Olver, do the office work and train dogs,” she said.

“I love the interaction with clients and the service we provide, which the whole team is passionate about.

“I also love the people I work with and the encouragement and challenges at times, along with the personal growth it allows me.”

In nominating Ms Pfeiffer for the award, her colleagues shone a light on her support of other technicians to achieve their licences; her knowledge of systems; constant attempts to grow and upskill; and her passion for canine detection training.

They said Ms Pfeiffer led by example, was a strong communicator and was focused on expanding the business through franchising.

She also supported another female employee to gain her Certificate III in Business certificate.

Positive

Ms Pfeiffer said pest management was a male-dominated industry, so she was pleased to be able to help women play greater roles.

“Whatever I do I always try to have a positive impact on those around me, whether directly or indirectly,” she said.

“When I go to work I try to improve the business, the environment and self-growth, which is often done by contributing to the industry in a positive way.

“Steve and I are passionate about what we do and why we do it.”

Bug R Off Pest Busters is no stranger to awards, having won the ‘Australian Pest Manager of the Year 2020’ accolade.

Ms Pfeiffer said the excellence award winner was due to be announced during an annual AEPMA – Australian Environmental Pest Managers Association – conference in September, however the conference had been postponed for a second year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The award winner will be announced on social media.

“There are five other extremely worthy nominated ladies and just to be alongside them is an achievement,” Ms Pfeiffer said.

“I need to say thank-you to Steve, who has been biggest supporter, and also my children and those around me.

“Every single person who I have contact with in some way has an imprint on who I am or have become.

“I will forever be grateful to those who have been part of my journey to this point.

“Regardless of the outcome of this award, I will continue to look at how I can continue to grow and give back to the industry and even our community.”

HONOURED: Bug R Off Pest Busters’ Rebekah Pfeiffer is among finalists for a Professional Women in Australian Pest Management Excellence Award. She is pictured with termite detection dog, Missy, which she trained after completing an intensive scent-detection course with renowned trainer Steve Austin.

Certification to open markets G

raingrowers across western Victoria can expand their access to international markets as part of a new certification scheme.

Federal Government members Dan Tehan, Wannon, and Anne Webster, Mallee, have described the new scheme as a major boost to graingrower opportunities.

A new Grain Industry Sustainability Certification Scheme, developed by Australian Oilseeds Federation, will open the door for international buyers looking for ‘sustainable certified produce’.

Dr Webster and Mr Tehan acknowledged the Wimmera, Mallee and Western District’s reputation for growing world-class grain.

“The competition of this project gives our local grain farmers and exporters another boost when it comes to accessing new market opportunities,” Mr Tehan said.

Dr Webster added the project had also produced a grains-industry communication and education program to support small to medium-sized grain exporters to access markets where sustainability certificates are required.

Market forecast estimations are that the value of Australian grain, oilseeds and pulses for export in 2021-22, of which a large percentage will come from western Victoria, will be $12.50-billion.

Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said $97,500 from an established $5-million Package Assisting Small Exporters program, PASE, supported the project.

“This scheme will boost market-access opportunities for Aussie exporters selling grains including wheat, barley and pulses,” he said.

“The project has also produced a grains-industry communication and education program to support small to medium-sized grain exporters to access markets where sustainability certificates are required”

– Anne Webster

“The Australian government is backing our farmers and exporters, and always looking to open more market opportunities for our premium produce to be enjoyed around the world.”

Australian Oilseeds Federation president Rosemary Richards said the project helped smaller exporters.

“The PASE project enabled smaller exporters to more readily access the growing market for certified sustainable grain,” Ms Richards said.

“Without PASE, these exporters risked missing out on the opportunities available through the growing global demand for sustainable agricultural inputs.”

The government established the Package Assisting Small Exporters program in 201415 to improve market access for small exporters in dairy, fish, eggs, grain, plant, horticulture, meat and animal industries.

The original program supported 58 projects to the value of $10.45-million.

The government extended the program in 2019 and in the 2020-21 financial year has awarded $4.95-million in grants for 21 projects to help small exporters to overcome barriers to market access.

PLENTY OF CLUCK: Wimmera Poultry Club president Colin Appledore, holding an Ancona chicken, and secretary Jeanette Fenton with a bantam in preparation for the club’s annual show.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Feathered friends to feature Cackles and colour will again be on display at Horsham Showground on Saturday when Wimmera Poultry Club presents its annual championship show.

Club officials have confirmed the event, which has a long-time reputation for displaying a vast range of feathered friends, will go ahead, pending confirmation regional Victoria will remain free of COVID-19 lockdown rules.

Wimmera Poultry Club has been among community organisations hit by COVID-19 in the past year, having to cancel its June show this year and two shows last year.

Club secretary Jeanette Fen-

ton, in confirming strong entries for this weekend’s show, added that enthusiasts would also present a broad variety of birds.

“Our club has included pigeons into this show and breeders are bringing both ‘fancy’ and ‘racing’ varieties,” she said.

“With many COVID rules and regulations in place, we are very excited to see entries coming in from older exhibitors as well as many newcomers.

“We will have large fowl and bantams on the day, with some sleek and shiny and others that are fluffy with pom poms on their heads.

“There will be a great variety of duck breeds too, from bantam

size to tall and straight-standing breeds.”

President Colin Appledore said enthusiasts were looking forward the club’s first show in two years.

“Everybody just wants to get out and show their birds,” he said.

The club has received about 600 entries across all sections.

Show judging starts at 10.30am, after which the display pavilion will open and the public can start viewing the exhibits. Crowd limitations will apply across the day, but people are likely to have an opportunity to see birds on display with staggered entry.

Kate Pryde

Boss: Health merger positive S

tawell Regional Health chief executive Kate Pryde is confident a proposed western Victorian health-service merger will have a positive effect on Stawell’s economy.

Ms Pryde said proposal intentions were to fill and build on health-service gaps, which would lead to more career opportunities and roles for staff and the community having better service choices.

She was commenting on the proposal, which includes merging Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital, Stawell Regional Health, Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services.

Ms Pryde said figures showed, on average, only 12 of the 26 beds at Stawell Regional Hospital were in use daily, aged-care occupancy sat at 55 percent and waiting times had extended for outpatient allied health services including physiotherapy and podiatry.

“A stronger, better resourced, nursing and service staff in Stawell can drive the town’s health care and contribute to population growth and our community’s economy,” she said.

“Community members currently wear the economic burden of having to travel outside of our district for care, resulting in lost time at work, transport costs of petrol and parking and sometimes accommodation costs.

“Increasing the service provision and improv-

ing the integration of services across the region can reduce these costs and support local retailers and other businesses.”

Ms Pryde said should the proposal win approval, combined health service planning would explore all services available and develop an understanding about how best to fill gaps and opportunities for enhanced services.

“Once the patient transfer and transport systems and processes between the health services are implemented, the benefits will be ongoing, giving security to our facility and ensuring Stawell Regional Hospital provides sustainable health services well into the future,” she said.

The proposal has generated considerable debate and polarised opinion.

Some people fear, based on previous experiences involving centralised government-agency workforce rationalisation, that a new health group involving Ballarat would lead to diminished regional service provision and autonomy.

Proponents for the move strongly argue the opposite, that Ballarat involvement guarantees, through a formal service-provision conduit, a connection between specialist services and the Wimmera.

Ms Pryde said people seeking more information about an argument for the merger and to have their say could visit website careforour region.com.au.

Boards answer questions Management boards collaborating to promote a merger between four western Victorian health-service organisations are answering community questions about the concept through a series of weekly fact sheets.

The group, working under a Care For Our Region banner, is calling for questions and releasing fact sheets on website careforourregion. com.au.

The group is promoting the series to clarify its position amid considerable community debate and anxiety regarding the proposal.

The concept, which needs ministerial approval to proceed, includes merging Wimmera Health Care Group, Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital, Stawell Regional Health and Ballarat Health Services.

The first of the series is based on the expected economic effect a new collective health service would have on the Wimmera.

Wimmera Health Care Group chief executive Catherine Morley provided a snapshot of motivations such as locum staff and staff recruitment.

“We have an extensive use of locum staff and agency nurses to ensure we have enough staff on our roster every day. That’s great we’ve got them and we really appreciate that they’re here,” she said.

Wednesday, August 18, 2021

“What we want to do is attract and retain these highly skilled people to be part of our community, to live in town and to support our community and know our community and to help them with their wellbeing needs.

“Staff recruitment will be easier because we will be part of a larger health service.

“Currently in Horsham we’re unable to attract someone to come up one day a week. It just isn’t in their best interest – we just don’t have that critical mass.

“If we’re part of a large health service a cardiologist, an orthopaedic surgeon specialising in shoulder replacement could be part of a larger orthopaedic team, have a schedule that would include coming here once a fortnight and doing a couple of days of treatment, perhaps working in Stawell, working in Ballarat, but having the capacity to be part of a peer-support network, access to a range of surgeries they will be able to do and the ability to grow as well because there will always be a head orthopaedic surgery that will come up at some stage – we don’t offer that option in Horsham as a single identity.

“We believe the medical workforce needs opportunities to be part of a team that Horsham just can’t provide.”

Optus switches on at Toolondo

T

elecommunications company Optus has switched on a new mobile telephone base station at Toolondo, south-west of Horsham.

The Toolondo site is one of three new station sites in western and northern Victoria. The others are at Berriwillock in the southern Mallee and Toolleen, east of Bendigo.

Site development is part of the Federal Government’s Mobile Black Spot Program and extends Optus mobile telephone coverage range.

The State Government has also provided money for the sites, investing $58-million into developing 253 new mobile base stations across the state.

Optus regulatory and public affairs vice-president Andrew Sheridan said Optus was providing mobile competition and choice to regional and rural Victoria.

He said the three new towers brought the number of Mobile Black Spot Program sites Optus had switched on in Victoria to 17.

“As part of an Optus vision of being Australia’s most loved everyday brand with lasting customer relationships, our network is at the core of everything we do,” he said.

Federal Regionalisation, Regional Communications and Regional Education Minister Bridget McKenzie said the activation of the three base stations would provide essential mobile-phone connectivity.

“The Liberal-Nationals government’s priority is to provide Australians with access to reliable communication,” she said.

“This will be a major boost for the

“Good mobile connectivity will be a game changer for these communities – helping people work, study, connect with loved ones and get access to safety and emergency information”

– Jaala Pulford

northern and western parts of Victoria, not just for those residing in the area, but also those using a major transport link like the Calder Highway, where being able to reliably contact emergency services could be life-saving.

“Under the first five rounds of the program we have funded more than 1200 new mobile base stations, with more than 940 of these now on air.

“This will provide residents with better access to education services, help them stay connected to loved ones and essential services, while helping local businesses grow.”

Victorian Innovation, Medical Research, and the Digital Economy Minister Jaala Pulford said the State Government was fast-tracking connectivity across the state.

“Good mobile connectivity will be a game changer for these communities – helping people work, study, connect with loved ones and get access to safety and emergency information,” she said.

GETTING INVOLVED: Participants show off their final product at an Ararat gallery workshop.

Ararat gallery workshop success Budding craft enthusiasts had an opportunity to take part in a faceto-face workshop with artist Leanne O’Sullivan at Ararat Gallery TAMA. Inspired by her textile collection featured in a ‘Thread of Life’ exhibition, O’Sullivan demonstrated the Japanese tradition of slowstitch ‘mottainai’ and wrapping ‘tsutsumu’.

The series of pre-lockdown workshops, indulging an urge to create something new out of existing materials, involved 20 participants.

Ararat mayor Jo Armstrong attributed success of the sold-out workshops to visitor demand for in-person experiences.

“Our galleries offer more than just art. They also provide a space where the community can connect, learn new skills and be inspired,” she said.

“Ms O’Sullivan was the perfect choice of artist for the first in-person workshop since the pandemic began. Her love of craft and Japa-

RIB SUBLUXATION, WHAT’S THAT??

Rib subluxations are caused when the rib becomes jammed up in one direction. It can cause sudden sharp pain in the upper back often around the shoulder blade area. It can feel like a knife-like pain and movement aggravates it.

Not shopping at the Meat Market will leave you cold...

TREVALLY FILLETS

Now will it go away by itself? The pain will settle in one to two weeks, however this still means that the rib can be still jammed up and not allowing free movement in the upper back.

“We also created a braid for drying chilis – items from the gallery’s Japanese packaging collection inspired the activity.

“I hoped to teach people about Japanese craft and sustainable practice, how it was done in the past, evolved over time and how it’s practised in Japan today.

“We don’t necessarily have to comprise the aesthetics by avoiding purchasing new materials to use every time – we all have a linen closet full of materials we can repurpose for our arts and crafts.

“These lessons can be applied in everyday life, not just how we approach art. With the pandemic, I find more people are exploring new hobbies and are turning to craft to keep sane. I have found that with the inability to travel, people are particularly interested in learning about other cultures through experiences at the moment.”

nese-culture appreciation resonated well with the participants.

“We’re thrilled to have out-oftown visitors visit the gallery too.”

For more than 15 years O’Sullivan has shared her craft with community groups, schools and galleries, as well as from her studio space, Kimono House in Melbourne’s Nicholas Building.

“Workshops are a great way for people to get familiar with other cultures and discover their passion for craft,” O’Sullivan said.

“In the morning class, participants hand-stitched a drawstring bag using vintage kimono cloth in the Japanese tradition of ‘mottainai’ – not to be wasteful.

“I also introduced some of the visible mending techniques that can be found in works from my ‘boro’ collection displayed in the ‘Thread of Life’ exhibition.

Government acts on river camping T

he State Government has confirmed it will continue to pursue an election campaign to open new camping areas alongside Victorian rivers.

The government is investigating ‘hundreds’ of new areas of possible camping sites and finalising new regulations governing recreational use of Crown land after extensive debate on the issue.

It has declared that Victorians will have more riverside camping options on sites subject to ‘a rigorous assessment process to ensure sites will be safe for camping, with environmental and agricultural impacts considered as well as any impact on Aboriginal cultural heritage’.

The move had generated considerable concern from the State Opposition and Victorian Farmers Federation, worried about the implications of allowing camping on farmerleased land.

The government, which attracted more than 1100 submissions during community consultation of draft regulations, is assessing up to 27 sites along Goulburn, Broken, Ovens, Campaspe, Loddon and Murray rivers, with hundreds to follow.

Environment Minister Lily D’Ambrosio said final regulations would reflect community expectations, providing a fair balance between providing opportunities for recreation while ensuring protection of the environment and Aboriginal cultural heritage.

She added considerations would also include adjoining landowners and licence holders.

“We’re striking the right balance to make sure riverside public land is protected for generations to come,” she said.

Victorian Farmers Federation president Emma Germano welcomed the news that

DEPARTURE: Andrew Freeman will move on from his position as East Grampians Health Service chief executive.

“Ensuring camping is only permitted on appropriate sites and agricultural impacts are considered is a step in the right direction and recognises the potential impact of this change on agriculture” – Emma Germano

camping would only occur on suitable sites, but added the key would be in regulation details.

She said the announcement was a positive step forward, but farmers would be in the dark until September 1.

“Ensuring camping is only permitted on appropriate sites and agricultural impacts are considered is a step in the right direction and recognises the potential impact of this change on agriculture,” she said.

“It’s pleasing to see the enormous efforts and hard work of not only farmers, but all impacted stakeholders is beginning to pay off.

“Now we need to see the detail on the actual rules before they begin in a matter of weeks.

“We can’t understand and implement what we don’t know.”

The public can already lawfully access licensed river frontages for recreation such as fishing, hiking and picnicking.

Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, Victorian Fisheries Authority and Parks Victoria will enforce the regulations.

A 24-hour hotline, 13FISH, will be available for the public to report any illegal or antisocial behaviour.

Health boss is moving on East Grampians Health Service’s management board will appoint an interim chief executive later this month after the resignation of Andrew Freeman.

The ‘acting’ role will be in place until the board recruits a new administrative leader.

Board chair Nancy Panter announced Mr Freeman’s resignation, effective from September 3.

Mr Freeman, who joined East Grampians Health Service in October 2018, will take on a role as executive director of a Hume Health Service Partnership with Goulburn Valley Health.

Ms Panter thanked Mr Freeman for the leadership he had demonstrated to the health service and wider community.

“During his time leading East

Grampians Health Service, the organisation was successful in attracting funding for the redevelopment of the theatre and imaging departments,” she said.

“These works will be completed early next year and will contribute to the ongoing sustainability of the health service.”

Ms Panter also praised Mr Freeman’s leadership throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The board is extremely proud of the teamwork at EGHS, led

by Andrew, throughout the COVID-19 pandemic,” she said.

“EGHS has shown regional leadership as a vaccination subhub lead and provided an ongoing COVID testing program for the community.

“Andrew is an excellent leader who has led the team to

achieve great results for East Grampians Health Service in clinical governance and workforce development.

“His continual motivation to improve the organisation’s performance is acknowledged and we appreciate his dedication to our health service.”

Mr Freeman thanked people who had supported him throughout his tenure with East Grampians Health Service.

“I thank the board, executive, staff, volunteers and community for their support over the past three years,” he said.

“I am particularly proud of the staff during the past 18 months and their response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I wish the health service all the best for the future.”

Tips for new investors

Y

ou are young, expecting a satisfying future brimming with friends, family and a comfortable lifestyle.

You are a ‘next generation investor’, likely between 18 and 25, and you are starting to think about financial security.

According to an Australian Stock Exchange study, nearly a quarter of all investors during the past two years were next generation investors.

Additionally, some 27 percent of surveyed people under 25 intend to invest over the next year.

The excitement of embarking on a journey towards financial freedom is common, as is confusion. After all, in the rush of enthusiasm, how can you ensure you get the decisions made for the future, right today? Following are a few rookie mistakes that can be easily avoided.

Not clearing debt first

Loans and credit cards have a knack for eating away income. It is recommended that you clear as much debt as possible before committing to serious investments. Track your spending to spot potential savings, then channel that cash towards your debts. Every little bit helps.

No strategy

Desire to build wealth through investment is not a strategy. The end game determines which investments will be most suitable.

Consider how you feel about risk and whether you’ll need access to your money. Successful investment strategies are planned.

If it feels overwhelming, seek professional advice to help you build your strategy.

Not diversifying

Generally speaking, the higher the potential return, the higher the potential risk. Market-linked investments, such as shares, can be big-earners, but you’ll have to ride economic ups and downs to get there – sometimes for 10 years or more.

If this worries you, consider low-risk investments. Conservative in nature, their returns are generally lower.

Decide how much risk you are comfortable with. You might be better off minimising ex-

posure to high-risk assets by diversifying your portfolio with a variety of investment types.

Trying to predict the market

Investment markets are notoriously unpredictable. Buying shares at the wrong time can mean you pay more than you should, similarly, selling at the wrong time can result in losses.

Short-term buying and selling might seem exciting, but it is a fast track to losing money. The way around this is research, diversification and being prepared to stay the distance.

Review

No investment is a set-and-forget scheme.

Always keep track of your savings and your ongoing investment plan, ensuring it continues to align with your goals, particularly as they change over time. A new car might be your priority today, but fast-forward a couple of years and perhaps marriage and children are your priorities.

A few other things…

Fees and taxes are unavoidable and various investments attract different expenses and tax structures. Find out what you’re up for before making financial decisions.

Feeling lost? The Australian Stock Exchange offers free online courses and the government’s MoneySmart website has a free info starter pack.

Of course, nothing beats professional advice tailored to your needs. The Financial Planning Association of Australia will put you in touch with a qualified adviser suitable for you.

Strategic investing sets you up financially and helps create a savings habit for life.

local plumbing & electrical specialists HED Industries is a family run business led by Luke and Abby Uebergang and their team of valued employees. Specialising in demolition and asbestos removal HED Industries holds both Victorian and NSW demolition and A-Class Asbestos removal licences.

HED also has a fleet of hire equipment in Perth, Adelaide and Portland.

HED predominantly services the Wimmera, Mallee and surrounding districts and also travels Victoria-wide and interstate.

“From the beginning 14 years ago our main business was demolition and general earthworks,” Luke said. “We then branched out into asbestos removal and gained our A-class licence. We have broadened our horizons and now specialise in soil remediation and have mobile crushing and screening plants.”

“At HED Industries we are constantly looking to grow by branching out into other areas which complement our business.”

“We are passionate about what we do and we pride ourselves on providing superior customer service to each and every client.”

After years in the demolition industry Luke has witnessed the impact that demolition waste is having on the environment. This inspired him to create a facility to recycle demolition waste that would otherwise end up in landfill. Luke has an EPA approved facility to recycle timber, bricks, concrete and iron. HED Industries crushes the concrete and bricks taken from demolition sites and recycles it to use for shed pads, hardstand for yards and driveways.

If you have a demolition, asbestos removal or other job you would like a quote for please go to the HED Industries website at hedindustries. com.au and complete the quote form or call Luke anytime on 0427 174 516.

HED Industries are open Monday – Friday 7am – 6pm and weekends by appointment.

Built on character Abarth secures 30 595 Scorpioneoros for Australia

J

ust as night follows day, Abarth has launched another special edition 595, this time paying homage to the A112 Abarth ‘Gold Ring’ of 1979.

Officially dubbed the 595 Scorpioneoro, just 30 examples will be making it to Australia out of a global production run of 2000 units, each priced from $31,450 plus on-road costs, with automatics carrying a $2150 premium.

Replicating the aesthetics of the original A112 Abarth, the Scorpioneoro dons a black paint job and gold

17-inch alloy wheels with matching gold decals on the bonnet.

A gold ‘all around liner’ circumnavigates the body, as does some gold badging, while a matte black chequered flag adorns the roof.

The golden highlights are continued inside the cabin, with a ‘595 Scorpioneoro One of 2000’ plaque fixed to the centre console, emphasised by the piano black interior and dash trim.

Other unique touches include the new leather-upholstered ‘Scorpionflage’ sports seats with the Italian flag and ‘Abarth Scorpioneoro’ em-

broidered on the headrests, the usual array of DAB, Apple CarPlayAndroid Auto – accessed via a Uconnect touchscreen – and climate control are all present too, along with exclusive floor mats and a premium Beats audio system.

Apart from its appearance, the powertrain is where the Scorpioneoro distinguishes itself from the mainstream 595 range, as well as the other special editions.

Whereas the standard 595 develops 107kW-204Nm and the Competizione produces 132kW-250Nm, the Scorpi-

oneoro’s turbocharged 1.4-litre engine churns out a middling 121kW-230Nm, resulting in a claimed 0-100kmh time of 7.3 seconds.

The standard transmission choice is the familiar five-speed manual, however a five-speed ‘Dualogic’ automatic is optionally available – both send drive exclusively to the front wheels.

Abarth Australia marketing communications director Tom Noble said the Scorpioneoro is ‘an authentic representation of the brand’s racing heritage that fans and collectors will relish’.

“A spirited driver’s car with its manual transmission and punchy engine, we now have a visual guise that truly reflects the character of Abarth, complete with numbered golden heritage scorpion badging making it an authentic collectible for enthusiasts,” he said.

Fiat Australia has sold 327 examples of the 500 and 595 so far this year ending July 31, accounting for a narrow 6.4 percent of the micro segment it shares with the Kia Picanto with 82.1 percent share, and Mitsubishi Mirage, 11.5 percent.

BMW iX3 set to arrive in November MW Australia’s inbound iX3 electric SUV will bear a $114,900 – plus on-road costs – sticker price when it arrives in November.

This places it third from the top of the wider X3 portfolio, updated versions of which are due to touch down almost imminently.

Topped on price only by the flagship X3M Competition and semi-skim X3 M40i, the iX3 will share many of the X3’s updated cabin design cues and features, along with a collection of unique touches to single it out as the range’s dedicated EV. As per the exterior, the iX3’s interior is dripping with blue trim accents and lighting denoting the car’s all-electric nature, while model-specific lettering on the centre console and door sills ensure even colour-blind occupants know what they’re in.

Given its position within the X3 family, the locally delivered iX3 will be generously appointed, to the point it could be simpler to list what it does not have.

Rolling on aerodynamically optimised 20-inch alloy wheels, the Australian versions will be fitted with the M Sport Package for an extra bit of visual flair in addition to the adaptive LED headlights, enclosed BMW kidney grille, imitation rear diffuser and LED tail-lights.

Inside the cabin are heated sports front seats upholstered in ‘Vernasca’ leather with electric adjustment, panoramic glass sunroof, 12.3-inch BMW Live Cockpit Professional, Sensatec instrument panel, a head-up display, ambient lighting, automatic climate control, reclining second row, through-loading system and powered tailgate.

Multimedia duties are catered for by the BMW Operating System 7 and accessed via a prominently mounted

touchscreen hosting wireless Apple CarPlay-Android Auto, DAB+ digital radio and wireless charging with the whole thing pumping audio though a 16-speaker Harman-Kardon surround sound system. Other technology highlights include gesture control, Connected Package Professional, comfort access, tyre pressure monitoring, vehicle pre-heating and pre-conditioning, Driving Assistant Professional and Parking Assistant Plus.

Like the base X3 sDrive20i, the

iX3 is exclusively rear-wheel drive.

Its single rear axle-mounted electric motor is fed by an 80kWh lithiumion battery good for a range of up to 460km on the WLTP cycle.

The system has a maximum output of 210kW-400Nm, enough to launch the iX3 from 0-100kmh in a claimed 6.8 seconds and on to a governed top speed of 180kmh.

Once the battery is low or flat, it can be recharged from 10 to 80 percent in 32 minutes when using a 150kW

DC fast charger, with about 100km of range being added in only 10 minutes.

Included in the price of the iX3 is an unlimited five-year Chargefox ‘Fast and Ultra Rapid’ charging subscription, as well as a domestic charger that will take the battery from empty to full in 44 hours when plugged into a regular mains outlet – a ‘Type 3’ public charging cable is also included.

To get the most out of the battery in between charges, BMW has fitted the iX3 with an adaptive recuperation system that determines its intensity using information from the driver aids.

The iX3 is filled up to its would-be eyeballs with safety tech including the Driving Assistant Professional suite – active cruise control with stop and go, lane keeping assist, crossing-traffic warning, evasion assistant, crossroads warning with city braking and speed limit assist; Parking Assistant Plus system – park assist, active park distance control, lateral parking aid, reversing assist, surround view system and remote 3D view; and acoustic pedestrian protection – emits a sound below 30kmh.

The iX3’s arrival will be the first of three key EV arrivals, set to be followed in the fourth quarter by the larger iX flagship before the i4 gran coupe arrives in the first quarter of 2022.

FIRST OF THREE: The iX3 is the first of three key EV arrivals for BMW, with iX and i4 to follow.

Baby SUV segment is booming

J

ust how damaging SUVs have been to the established hatchback and sedan market is no better seen than in the booming light SUV segment – a segment that barely existed a decade ago and yet has really captured an audience.

Much of the interest centres around the style of the SUV profile that brings the attraction of a high seating position and the illusion – in most cases – of go-anywhere ability. Contrary to the perception, SUVs primarily live in urban applications and none more than the light SUV players.

The light SUV segment has rocketed 136 percent in year-to-date July sales figures reported by VFACTS and, for the month of July, is up 87.9 percent on the same month in 2020.

Last year was not the best barometer for gauging change, so compared with the more robust 2019 year, the sector – inclusive of light and small SUVs because they were then combined – sold 80,148 examples in the seven months to July and in July alone, 10,513 vehicles.

Comparing apples with apples, the light and small SUV sectors in the seven months to July 2021 saw 125,513 sales, up a whopping 45,365 units or 36 percent – much of that gain in the lightweight end of the SUV models.

$12,500

In July 2021 alone, the light and small SUV bracket saw 15,559 sales – 4548 of those in the ‘light’ category.

This category has 15 players but five ceased sales during the past 18 months – Citroen C3 Aircross, Citroen C4 Cactus, Ford Ecosport, Holden Trax and SsangYong Tivoli – and three were added.

Newcomers were the Ford Puma, Kia Stonic and Toyota Yaris Cross and to indicate how excitable the light-SUV sector has become, these canopy

vehicles, despite sharing similarities including the hatchback’s lift-up tailgate.

Names no longer in the showrooms, replaced with SUVs, or dropped because the segment retracted, include the Honda City and Jazz – Honda’s H-RV taking up the slack and a smaller model rumoured; Hyundai Accent – replaced with the Venue and Kona; Renault Clio – Captur and Kadjar; and Prius C – Yaris Cross Hybrid.

There’s also the Suzuki Celerio – Suzuki Ignis and Jimny; and Ford

three were hot showroom items that combined to find 1524 buyers.

The majority, 849, walked into Kia dealerships, while Toyota sold 472 of its new baby and Ford welcomed 203 owners.

A continuation of the upward trend is expected, with new segment entrants in the wings, including a smaller Volkswagen T model.

The rise of the light SUV has displaced a long list of light and small sedans and hatchbacks as the SUV style overtook the more traditional

Fiesta – buyers moved to the Ecosport but that has been withdrawn and replaced with the Puma.

Some have no replacement and have left the market. These include the Fiat Panda and Holden’s Spark and Barina.

The most popular light SUV this year has been the Mazda CX-3 – which has held the spot for a while – with a 29.9 percent share of the market and 10,145 sales in the seven months of this year.

It is important to note that while this has been a strong seller for Mazda and very popular with buyers, its market share is shrinking as new entrants fight for sales.

During the same seven months of 2020, the CX-3 had a market share of 52.3 percent, so given the rise in sales of the sector, almost half of Mazda’s share has been eaten by new rivals.

The second-best seller is the Toyota Yaris Cross – which attracts attention also because it is available with a hybrid powerplant – with 4686 sales this year for a 13.8 percent market share.

This is followed by Kia’s newlylaunched Stonic – effectively the sibling of Hyundai’s Venue – which has sold 4334 units this year and has a 12.8 percent market share.

The Hyundai Venue has sold 3611 units this year.

Although it is winter as I write, flowers are blooming; Jonquils are opening, daffodils are budding, camellias are flowering; and amidst the grey, there is colour. Last year felt pretty grey for many of us, and continues into this year. Yet even in the grey, there is colour. In our deepest darkness, the light can come, at the end of our longest nights, the sun will rise. Sometimes we might need to wait; other times, we have to look, and sometimes hope and light come unexpectedly to surprise us.

The oppressed and dispossessed people of Israel had faith that God would come, and said, “Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” (Hosea 6:3) Be assured that God will come to you, and when that happens, hope will rise. With God. The Psalmist said, “At night we may cry, but when morning comes we will celebrate”. (Psalm 30:5b) May this be your experience, too.

INTRODUCTION This notification is to alert landholders that Cartwheel Exploration Pty Ltd has engaged the specialised services of Xcalibur Aviation to conduct a Falcon® Plus Airborne Gravity Gradiometry (AGG) survey within the company’s Exploration Licence Area EL006548, EL006559, EL006560, EL007235 and EL007236.

The acquisition of airborne high-resolution gravity and magnetic data will enable Cartwheel Exploration to investigate the local geology without any ground disturbance.

AIRBORNE SURVEY METHOD The survey will be acquired using a fixed wing aircraft fitted with specialised gravity-sensing instrumentation. The instrumentation is capable of measuring extremely small variations in the Earth’s natural gravitational pull that are used to map changes in the earths ground density.

Acquisition will be conducted using a small plane, flown flat and level at 80m above the ground at a survey speed of about 200km/hr. The flight lines are oriented east-west, with a line spacing of 200m. Data collection will only occur inside the exploration license boundary, but the aircrafts influence will extend to the surrounding area. Flying will only occur in favourable weather conditions.

TIMEFRAMES AND WORK AREA The survey will commence late August 2021 and will take approximately 2 weeks to complete, pending weather conditions. The survey area covers the region as outlined in the image below.

Finals build-up in Wimmera hockey W

BY SIMON KING

immera Hockey Association’s penultimate round of games before the finals will unfold on the synthetic surface at Dimboola on Saturday.

While some teams have already qualified for finals, and some now know that they cannot make it, for others this weekend will make or break their season.

In open competition the top two teams are locked in, but the four remaining teams all have the opportunity to claim one of two remaining finals places.

Nhill Rangers need a win, and although their opponents Warrack Hoops came away with a draw last week, it would be dangerous to draw a form line from the result. Both teams have players that excel on the synthetic surface.

With the Rangers having the incentive of confirming a place in the finals, this should be a hotly contested match.

A chance to take on undefeated Yanac Tigers should also see Horsham Hurricanes bring their A-game to competition this weekend.

If they do, they have more incentive than their opponents, who already have top spot on the ladder. This should be an entertaining game regardless of the result.

Despite a win last weekend, Dim-

boola Burras are still to find their best form, and with Kaniva Cobras having pushed the higher-ranked Hoops for the full 70 minutes last round, this should be the match of the day in open competition.

The Burras still need another win to confirm a place in the finals beyond doubt, but a Cobras victory could find them rising into the top four by Saturday evening. Both teams have much to gain but also much to lose on this result.

The teams playing finals in the women’s competition have already been set, so interest in the last two rounds comes from what order they will finish and which will earn the ‘second chance’.

Finding good form at the business end of the season will also be a priority for coaches.

Kaniva enters this round with little match practice over recent weeks after an abandoned round and a bye last weekend. It will have to take winless Dimboola Roos seriously to re-start its build-up to the finals.

The Roos have struggled this year and have nothing to lose, so by taking on a team that might not be in its best form, they could very well spring an upset.

After a big win in round 14, Horsham Jets will get the opportunity to find out precisely where they stand in the

These two have already booked places in the second semi-final, so this game is all about gaining a psychological advantage before they meet again in three weeks.

Kaniva Raiders have the bye, and the two points they earn could still be vital in their chances of holding fourth place and a spot in the semi-finals.

Results –

HOCKEY ACTION: Paul Mackereth of Horsham Hurricanes, left, and Brett Tischler, Dimboola Burras, at the weekend. Picture: SIMON KING competition when they meet undefeated Yanac Women.

Although yet to drop a game, Yanac has not recorded many huge wins, so it might find it challenging to take on a Jets team full of confidence.

Two points from the bye will keep Nhill Thunderbirds in touch with the top two.

In under-16s, a win in the opening game of the day is vital for Warrack Revengers’ chances of climbing back into the top four.

But Nhill Leopards will not be an easy opponent.

Already in the finals, the Leopards will want to bounce back quickly from their loss to the Warriors last round, but Revengers need the win to remain in contention.

The most anticipated game for the round will see the top two teams clash.

The last time they met, also on the turf at Dimboola, Yanac Warriors earned a narrow win over Horsham Bombers 2-1.

Open: Yanac Tigers 2 (goals, S. Alexander, T. Alexander; best, T. Alexander, S. Alexander, J. Croot) d Nhill Rangers 0 (J. Reichelt, B. Miller, K. Rowe), Dimboola Burras 4 (F. Cullen 3, T. Jorgensen; R. Cullen, T. Jorgensen, B. Tischler) d Horsham Hurricanes 3 (P. Mackereth, T. Leffler, T. Batchelor; P. Mackereth, T. Leffler, T. Roberts), Kaniva Cobras 1 (D. Cole; C. Beattie, D. Cole, L. Mills) drew with Warrack Hoops 1 (O. Bennett; C. Bardell, R. Brown, S. Schultz).

Women: Horsham Jets 7 (E. Morrow 3, M. Guest 2, A. Morrow, K. Schwarz; E. Morrow, A. Morrow, L. Schilling) d Dimboola Roos 1 (L. Eilola; A. Rintoule, L. Eilola, C. Hadzig), Yanac Women 4 (L. Bone 2, E. Alexander, C. Dickinson; L. Bone, M. Farmers, T. Croot) d Nhill Thunderbirds 2 (G. McLeod, E. Murden; E. Murden, C. Rowe, J. Hauselburger).

Under-16s: Kaniva Raiders 7 (B. Williams 2, C. White 2, X. Stimson 2, L. Krelle; C. White, X. Stimson, J. White) d Warrack Revengers 1 (S. Williamson; L. Eilola, C. Bennett, N. Eilola, O.

Uncertainty opens the door

BY DEAN LAWSON

J

ust how important is the final round of Wimmera football league’s home-and-away season?

Results have shored up finalists and the second-chance benefits that come with a top-three have settled in the laps of Minyip-Murtoa, Southern Mallee Giants and Stawell.

And what is there to play for in the final round of the season for teams who have missed the end-of-year play-off series?

They are the primary and seemingly benign questions confronting teams heading into games this weekend.

Don’t be fooled. It is often the round of games that seems to mean little that can upset confidence, planning and preparations of even the strongest of teams.

Throw in a disjointed season of uncertainty such as the one we’ve experienced and how that impacts on player availability and the mix becomes even more complicated.

The great unknown in these types of rounds is how players, either as individuals or groups, respond to circumstances. Will players from teams that can’t make the finals or change their position take the foot off the pedal?

Or will they produce the hunger for victory that has been missing or on show all season?

There are a few games in the final round this weekend that provide an element of intrigue.

Ararat and Horsham will be missing from the finals, but in their last hurrah for the year meet second-placed Southern Mallee Giants and fifthplaced Dimboola respectively.

Both the Rats and Demons have each had five wins and seven losses, suggesting they are only marginally off the pace.

Ararat, too good for Nhill last week, takes on a Giants outfit fresh from a solid winning effort against Dimboola at Beulah.

The game is a back-to-back home ground for the Rats at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval, while the Giants travel from the southern Mallee. It remains to be seen if that means anything for what has been a disciplined Giants team.

Ararat established a break against the Tigers last week before putting the game’s result beyond doubt with an eight-goal third term and settling back

to enjoy a 34-point win. Nick Oliver kicked five goals and Tom Cousins three, while Ethan Summers, Liam Arnott and Brody Griffin produced strong games.

So what do the Rats have in store for the visiting Giants?

Southern Mallee Giants signalled their return to action last week with a 20-point victory over Dimboola, Coleman Schache providing an obvious leadership game and others such as three-goal Ben Webster and Rupert Sangster were prominent in the win.

Details tell us this game is a dead rubber, but motivation comes in various forms and regardless of circumstances most footballers prefer to win.

At the same time, what does Horsham bring to the table when it wanders up the Western Highway to meet old enemy Dimboola?

The Demons were 82 points off matching the potency of flag favourite Minyip-Murtoa last week, but confronted with the final game of the season and with Jordyn Burke and Tyler Blake confirmed as coaches next year, might be hard to beat.

Blake, Matt Wynne, Ben Lakin and Billy Carberry won mentions against the flow last week and with others will believe they can beat the Roos.

Dimboola is two games clear of

Horsham in the five and needs a good confidence-booster before the finals.

Leaders Jackson O’Neill and coach Justin Beugelaar topped best-player lists in an encouraging sign for the Roos and Hayden Walters featured.

Having a greater impact in front of the sticks will be high on the agenda for the Roos.

Finals preview

While questions are being put to teams in Ararat and Dimboola, a good old-fashioned finals preview will unfold at Stawell’s Central Park.

Third-placed Stawell plays fourthplaced Horsham Saints and while only a game separates the two on points, Stawell has a considerable percentage advantage.

Stawell had a larger rest than the rest of the competition courtesy of a bye last week, while Horsham Saints tore up Anzac Park at Warracknabeal with a 94-point win against Warrack Eagles.

Does the Saints’ big win provide insight into their finals charge? We’ll wait and see, but they take on a serious opponent in the Warriors, who will need to quickly start flexing muscle.

Angus Martin kicked six goals for the Saints and Nick Caris three and

team barometer Jacob O’Beirne, Gage Wright and Mitch Martin were busy.

With the prospects of solid games unfolding across the region, what does winless Nhill bring to the table against Minyip-Murtoa at Nhill?

The Tigers, while competitive at times during the year, have lacked finishing sting and will want to avoid securing the wooden spoon.

Adam Zimmermann, James Crowhurst and Darcy Honeyman were good players in a tough encounter against Ararat last week and despite big final effort at home, will struggle to match the Burras.

Minyip-Murtoa has a wealth of onfield assets, which was never more obvious than with former AFL star Clinton Young kicking six goals and clearly in the best in the win over Horsham. Young, only 35, has played two senior games for the Burras this season, automatically qualifying him for the finals. But if the team also wants him available for the seconds in the finals, he needs to play one more reserves game.

Kieran Delahunty kicked four goals for the Burras last week and Corey Morgan three, while Luke Chamberlain and Nick Petering topped a lengthy list of good players.

Rams enter series as finals wildcard N

BY DEAN LAWSON

atimuk United will take on a role as a potential ‘underdog spoiler’ when Horsham District football finals kick off at Quantong on Saturday.

The Rams have been fantastic and dreadful and everything in between in this upturned season and by sneaking into the finals could well upset the proverbial applecart.

If you listen to the experts, Natimuk United apparently has no hope of upsetting perennial powerhouse Harrow-Balmoral in the first of two elimination finals this weekend.

But the game has ventured into a finals environment, which in many cases has traditionally levelled out expectations and on more than one occasion made everything that’s happened during the build-up irrelevant.

What an absence of fans – a requirement for games to go ahead amid the pandemic – does for finalists remains an unknown. But player emotions and desire to move their teams onto the next stage are sure to remain unchanged.

Both the Rams and Southern Roos go into the Saturday contest fresh from comprehensive last-round victories, with perhaps the Roos’ win more profound in a finals context.

Harrow-Balmoral belted fellow finalist Jeparit-Rainbow, scheduled to play Kalkee in the second elimination game at Harrow on Sunday, by a massive 82 points.

The Southern Roos had established an almost 10-goal lead at half time at Jeparit and were relentless, finishing with 30 scoring shots to 13.

DESPERATION: Kalkee and Laharum players, from left Jasper Gunn, Patrick Lattanzio and Matt Magee fight for a loose ball at Kalkee. Kalkee will play finals this weekend while Laharum will look to next season.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER The Roos, with James Staude, who led the charge last week with seven goals and combining with the likes of Simon Close, Will Plush and Nick Pekin, are threatening to produce a similar result at Quantong.

Natimuk United rated as a competition enigma early in the season, crashing badly against notable opponents on occasions, but has won its last three games, its latest against Kaniva-Leeor United by 46 points.

It comes as little surprise that utility and recognised on-field leader Sam

Anson has been at the forefront of the Rams’ late-season form.

On Saturday against the Cougars Dylan Bates also shone, alongside others such as Alex Ridsdale and Kyal Murray. Alex Baker kicked four goals.

A major weapon for the Rams this weekend will be Nathan Koenig, who kicked five goals at the weekend and took his season tally to 45. How he performs could well dictate what happens in the game. There could well be a shootout at either end of the ground.

The second elimination final features

just as much intrigue, especially on the back of Jeparit-Rainbow’s hefty loss to the Roos.

The Storm meets Kalkee at Harrow and will need to quickly regroup and regain a competitive edge. The loss was the first in several rounds for what had been a barnstorming run home.

The likes of Ash Clugston, Jay Kirwood and Scott Driscoll won recognition for their latest games, but the Storm will need more personnel on song to rattle Kalkee.

It’s questionable, however, whether

Kalkee’s preparation was much better, albeit for a completely different reason.

The Kees, predictably, ended their home-and-away season over a struggling Laharum, winning by more than 20 goals.

Apart from the likes of Jordan Motton, six goals, Corey Williams and Ben Lawson, four each, and a variety of others enjoying goal-kicking practice, it remains to be seen whether this is good finals preparation.

In the end, winning form is probably good form and the Kees have players such as Matt Nield, Hamish Exell, Jasper Gunn and Jordan Johns in good nick.

Listening for details of both games will be minor premier Noradjuha-Quantong and second-placed Rupanyup, which will need to wait a week to get a taste of the finals.

Noradjuha-Quantong hammered Edenhope-Apsley at the weekend and Rupanyup was a 10-goal better side than Taylors Lake.

Swifts, meanwhile, will be lamenting missing a finals berth, ending the season with a 125-point victory over Pimpinio.

Despite all the upheaval and anxiety surrounding COVID-19, abandoned rounds and uncertainty as a regular companion, the competition, at least up until yesterday, had managed to navigate its way to the finals.

Teams that have missed the finals – Swifts, Kaniva-Leoor United, Taylors Lake, Laharum, Edenhope-Apsley and Pimpinio – will put the footies away and consider what opportunities loom in 2022.

Woorndoo-Mortlake claims outright honours as minor premier After Saturday’s top-of-the-table clash in Mininera and District Football League, Woorndoo-Mortlake claimed outright honours for the minor premiership.

The team finished the home-andaway season without losing a game and has earnt a week off while the rest of the top-five teams battle in a qualifying final on Saturday and an elimination final on Sunday.

Great Western, which will take on Tatyoon in the qualifying final, finished its season with a four-goal win

over Lismore-Derrinallum. The Lions led from the start and did not waver for all four quarters.

Damon Folkes kicked seven goals in the win, to add to his yearly total of 70 and seal his number-one spot in the league goal-kicking.

And with players such as Jeremy Cronin, Andrew Cameron and Jesse Bennett on fire, the team will go into Saturday’s game confident it can put itself in the hunt for another premiership.

Tatyoon, however, will be going

into the game looking to redeem itself after a loss to Woorndoo-Mortlake on Saturday.

The Hawks kicked a lot of behinds in their 50-point loss and they will look to William Henderson, Andrew Maconachie and Steven Butler to lift their team to get another shot against the Tigers the following week.

Sunday’s match will feature Glenthompson-Dunkeld against Ararat Eagles.

After being beaten by large margins in 2019 every week, Ararat Eagles’

effort to rally to get a successful team on the park has come to fruition – they get to play their first final in a long time.

The Eagles finished off the homeand-away season with an 11-goal win over SMW Rovers, which saw Adrian Reid, Harrison Ennis and Aaron Byron named best players on the day.

The Rams also had an easy win, against Wickliffe-Lake Bolac, with Chris McLeod kicking seven goals in the victory, while Matthew Fry and Mick McMeel added nine more be-

tween them. Lachlan Seed and Tyler Fehsler were high-performing players on the day and they will be hoping to open their finals campaign this weekend.

In the reserves, Great Western plays Woorndoo-Mortlake on Saturday, while SMW Rovers will play Glenthompson-Dunkeld on Sunday.

Unbeaten Lismore-Derrinallum finished the reserves season on top of the ladder.

BY TONY LOGAN

A

fter a week that began under a dark COVID-19 cloud, harness racing at Ballarat on Saturday night shone brightly with a host of highlights of both human and equine varieties.

Harness-racing participants on Wednesday morning last week woke to news from Harness Racing Victoria chief executive Dayle Brown that acting on advice from the Department of Health and Human Services the previous night, Tabcorp Park Melton had been identified as a multi-tier COVID-19 exposure site and racing would immediately cease due to the ongoing investigation.

Meetings were cancelled at Tabcorp Park, Charlton and Geelong while health department and HRV officials worked feverishly to complete a thorough contact tracing and testing process.

Racing returned on Friday under strict biosecurity controls at Yarra Valley and Mildura and Saturday’s scheduled metropolitan meeting at Melton was transferred to Ballarat.

Leading reinswoman Kate Gath started the night with a triple treat for her husband-trainer Andy, leading all the way with Zigzagzoo in the trot, Mister Fortunia in the four-year-old pace and six-year-old gelding Flynn Frost, NZ, in a rating 78-89 pace.

Gath made it four in a row after former WA mare Nikki Louise led throughout for the Emma Stewart stable.

After a bye in the next, Gath returned to the track to score with Tango Tara, which also gave Andy four wins for the night.

While Kate was sitting out the fifth event on

TRIUMPHANT: Pauline Salter, left, and Leanne Hood celebrate winning the Beth Officer Trophy.

the program, the slashing victory of seven-yearold gelding Sirletic bought back fond memories of the late and great Gavin Lang, with driver Josh Aiken proudly sporting Lang’s silks.

Lang enjoyed success as trainer-driver of Sirletic, with 10 victories and five minor placings from 17 starts before declining health saw the horse handed over to the David Aiken stable.

Career milestone

Legendary horseman Chris Alford brought up a significant career milestone – victory number 7500 – with seven-year-old gelding Robbie Royale for trainer Brett Lilley in the feature event on the card, $24,000 Group 3 Coulter Crown.

Alford kicked clear of the pack on the home turn and ‘Robbie’ lasted to score by the barest of margins from Stress Factor – Greg Sugars.

The humble horseman said that while he was quite happy to reach the mark, ‘I just still love driving winners’.

Horsham-owned and trained colt Bondi Lockdown showed his class when untroubled to score in the $10,000 three-year-old pace at Ballarat.

Owner-trainer-driver Aaron Dunn urged the son of Somebeachsomewhere, USA, out from gate seven when the start was affected and the combo found the pegs before the first turn.

Well-rated at the head of affairs, ‘Bondi’ dashed home in 27.3 seconds to score by four metres in a rate of 1:54.9 for the 1710-metre dash.

It was the colt’s first outing since returning from an unlucky fifth placing in the $100,000 Group 1 Queensland Derby three weeks previously and took his record to six wins, seven minors and $108,420 from 18 starts.

Trophy win amid strong field Pauline Salter and Leanne Hood scored 44 points to win Horsham Golf Club’s annual four-ball, best-ball Beth Officer Trophy.

They were among a field of 29 pairs of women golfers and won from runners-up Peg Muszkieta and Liz McDonald with a score of 42.

The competition is named after Beth Officer, who lived in the Mallee town of Torrito, before moving to Horsham.

She became a prominent

Horsham Golf Club member before moving to Queensland in 1981 with her husband Kevin and sons, Brett, Mark and Dale.

The family was involved with the golf club and Mrs Officer’s father was also greenkeeper.

Mrs Officer first joined the club committee in 1975, was vice-president in 1976-77 and captain in 1979 and was involved in coaching clinics for women alongside life mem-

She donated a cup on her departure to be played annually as a foursomes knockout, which later became a foursomes event. This was changed later, with her approval, to a four-ball best-ball stableford.

The club lost the original cup in the Black Saturday fire in 2009 and Mrs Officer offered to replace the trophy.

Hobbs has eyes on draft

BY SAXON SOUNNESS

P

on work experience

rojected 2021 Australian Football League first-round draft pick Ben Hobbs continues to perform strongly in Victoria’s premier pathway competition.

Hobbs, from Horsham and an inside midfielder for Greater Western Victoria Rebels in the under-18 NAB Cup competition, said he was looking forward to an upcoming player draft.

Many AFL draft experts have predicted that Hobbs, 17, who played with Wimmera league club Horsham, will be in the top 10 picks.

AFL clubs will select players in the national draft in November.

Hobbs said players such as Nick Daicos and Jason Horne, projected top-three picks, were always great to learn from, despite spending limited time with them.

“They are great to learn from – from their preparation before the game to their on-field performance and I look forward to playing them for hopefully many years to come,” he said.

Hobbs also talked about fellow Horsham draft hopeful Sam Breuer and how Breuer had helped him with his journey.

“He is very draftable and works very hard. Every second day during

lockdown we would train together, which helped keep our skills sharp during the break,” he said.

An ankle injury sidelined Hobbs for two months.

He said rehabilitation had been important to allow him to resume playing. A few confidence-boosting games also came in handy.

“Following the rehab program as best as I could was important, as was getting my fitness back up before playing again and good games helped with confidence,” Hobbs said.

He said he also recognised and understood the importance of coaching and singled out his Rebels coach this year, David Loader.

He added playing basketball and the opportunities provided by AFL clubs in the development of his football had also been beneficial.

“David has been great. In an important year for the players, he has been a fantastic coach who all the boys get behind and want to play for,” he said.

“Basketball helped a lot with all the fitness at trainings and required in games. Tournaments helped me understand and get exposure to high-pressure situations.

“I was very lucky earlier in the year to be invited to train with Collingwood for a week.

“It was a great opportunity and

“It was a great opportunity and taught me that getting drafted is the easy part – you have to work hard every day, otherwise you get spat out of the AFL system”

– Ben Hobbs

taught me that getting drafted is the easy part – you have to work hard every day, otherwise you get spat out of the AFL system.”

Hobbs said his goal was to get drafted, smoothly transition into the AFL system and ‘hopefully get a few early games’.

When asked about who he believed his game style resembled, he said draft-board rankings often drew comparisons between him and established AFL players Jacob Hopper from GWS Giants and Taylor Adams, Collingwood.

• Broadacre and pasture agronomy • Farm planning and budgeting • Rural merchandise • Crop protection products • Animal health • Stock feed • Fencing materials • Crop and pasture seeds • Shearing requisites • Poly tanks and troughs • Boomspray nozzles and fittings • Fertiliser

“It’s those players and Travis Boak from Port Adelaide who I feel my game style is like – with how they get contested ball and kick some goals. Hopefully that’s what I can do,” he said.

Hobbs has been boarding at Ballarat Clarendon College for the past four years and spoke about how the school had been able to do its best at providing him with the ‘right’ food.

“Getting the right nutrition is pretty tough, but the school provides healthy options and helps me manage my nutrition,” he said.

Sport A swift run

‘Can’t keep up’ was the catch phrase for Horsham Racing Pigeon Club in the latest pigeon race, this time from Mildura.

Club members released 560 birds for a 276-kilometre race. John Muszkieta’s winning pigeon averaged 90 kilometres an hour to win the race by one minute. Paul and Jayden McPhee’s leading entry was next home.

A leading group of pigeons beat the driver back to Horsham, given their average speed and flying a more direct route to their home lofts than by road.

This was the first of two races from Mildura on a club north line for 2021.

The first 12 of 18 members had their leading birds in their lofts within 2.47 minutes of the winner, a reflection of the easy 10km to 20km northwestern conditions.

Racing pigeons tend to average closer to 72kms an hour over an extended flight without the impact of wind.

The fast speed also indicated the pigeons outflew any peregrine falcons along the flight.

It was noted that three peregrines had followed the leading pigeons to two Haven lofts.

The peregrines were ahead of the next batch.

Those pigeons circled about 500 metres away until the peregrines moved on, only then completing their flight to their home lofts.

The next two races will be from Mildura and a third from Hamilton, the latter first race to start a south-southeast line into Gippsland.

Results – Section one for small race teams: P.

and J. McPhee in 3.05.10 hours at 1487.24 metres a minute 1; McPhee family 1484.41mm 2; Karen Munday 1480.01mm 3. Section two for large race teams: John Muszkieta 1495.29mm 1; Bill Hartigan at 1485.56mm 2; Rob Nelson 1480.4mm 3.

Fired up for finals A

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

fter a stop-start season thanks to COVID-19 lockdowns, Horsham District netballers are champing at the bit to kick-start the 2021 finals series – while crossing their fingers regional Victoria will be spared any further restrictions.

FOCUS: Laharum showed its dominance against Kalkee last week, remaining undefeated with a 62-36 win. Pictured in action are Kalkee goal shooter Lucy Brand, above, and Caitlin Dumesny, Clair McDonald, Maddie Iredell and Casey Jess jostling for position. Pictures: PAUL CARRACHER

Undefeated ladder leader Laharum claimed the minor premiership with a win over Kalkee last week, while NoradjuhaQuantong retained second spot with a triumph against Edenhope-Apsley.

They will look on with interest at the weekend as the remaining four top-six sides battle for an opportunity to remain in the hunt.

Third-placed Harrow-Balmoral and sixth-placed Swifts will go head-to-head in an elimination final at Quantong on Saturday.

The Southern Roos will start favourite, having dropped only two games for the season – against the top two sides – while the Baggies are sitting on a 6-5 win-loss ratio.

The sides last met in round 11, with the Southern Roos leading all the way to a 25-goal win.

But, as everyone knows, anything can happen in finals.

Swifts goalies Michaela Armer and Jade Ralph have been combining well all year, with Armer shooting at 80 percent accuracy the last time the teams met.

Harrow-Balmoral obviously needs to cut off supply and experienced leader Ebonie Salter excels in that task in goal defence.

Both teams boast youth and pace in the midcourt, but Swifts defenders could have the toughest assignment of all – mitigating the shooting combination of Kirby Knight and Lucy King.

Knight was also on song the last time the pair met, finishing with a 49-goal haul and Erin Freeland and Brooke Palfreyman will want to rattle her early to ensure their side is in with a chance.

The winner of this match will live to

fight another day, taking on the victor of Sunday’s elimination final between Kaniva-Leeor United and Jeparit-Rainbow at Harrow.

The Cougars emerged victorious from the sides’ round-six battle and will be out to do it again this week.

Defenders Emma and Elizabeth Hawker will enjoy a good tussle with the Storm’s Georgia Batson and Breanna Eastick, while up the other end, the Storm has a few options to curb the influence of accurate Nikki Hawker, with Bridget McKenzie, Ebony Spokes and Penny Fisher all more-than-capable defenders.

Ellen Bennett has performed strongly for the Cougars all season, creating a seamless link between the ends, and will be hard to stop in centre.

Fisher and Elly Schumann are likely to rotate centre duties for the Storm.

The Storm is capable of an upset, but the Cougars are likely to advance to the semis in their first year in the Horsham District competition.

Jeparit-Rainbow will look to shake off last week’s loss to Harrow-Balmoral, while the Cougars will look to continue on their winning way after defeating Natimuk United in a close one, 31-26.

The Rams, who had drawn level by three-quarter time, were unable to finish their up-and-down season on a high as the Cougars ran out five-goal victors.

The Rams would have been disappointed to miss out on this year’s finals series after

Horsham Demons prepare for football decider Horsham Demons will contest the Western Victoria Female Football League under-18 grand final after finishing the home-andaway season in second spot.

The Demons, who have won nine of 12 matches this season, will take on undefeated minor premier South Warrnambool at DC Farran Oval, Mortlake.

The Demons triumphed over TerangMortlake by eight points at Horsham City Oval in the last round of the home-andaway season, 4.3 (27) to 3.1 (19).

The competition’s other Wimmera-based under-18 team, Stawell Warriors, finished off a tough competition against South Warrnambool on Sunday, going down 2.2.

enjoying several premierships and grand final appearances in recent years.

Without the Natimuk United-Laharum rivalry this season, district league followers are eager to see which side will emerge as the Demons’ key challenger.

At the moment, the Demons look on track to go back-to-back after defeating the Rams by a goal in a thrilling 2019 decider.

After the competition was cancelled last year due to the pandemic, fans are hoping for some close encounters as they cheer their favourites home – albeit mostly from afar while a spectator ban remains.

All clubs bar Rupanyup will feature in Horsham District netball finals this year.

Perennial finals contender NoradjuhaQuantong will have six teams in action, including all four senior sides, followed

by Harrow-Balmoral, Natimuk United and Kalkee with five a piece.

Results: Laharum d Kalkee 62-36, Swifts d Pimpinio 77-33, Noradjuha-Quantong d Edenhope-Apsley 73-35, Kaniva-Leeor United d Natimuk United 31-26, HarrowBalmoral d Jeparit-Rainbow 70-40.

(14) to 8.15 (63). Horsham’s women’s team also capped off its season at the city oval, going down to South Warrnambool 2.5 (17) to 6.6 (42). The Roosters will be out to claim the double and will meet undefeated Portland Tigers in the decider.

The Demons finished the season third overall, with three wins and four losses.

Double chance a key incentive

W

ith a couple of Southern Mallee Giants players stuck in Melbourne, Dimboola’s upset win over the ladder leader shows opportunities for upsets remain on the cards in Wimmera netball league.

A finals double chance is still up for grabs, with Warrack Eagles and Stawell both having higher percentage than third-placed Dimboola, should they all end up on 36 points.

This weekend, Stawell will be looking to beat Horsham Saints to snatch that double chance.

The Eagles have a bye and pick up points but gain no percentage and Dimboola takes on Horsham.

Even if Ararat and Saints win this week, their percentage is lower than the other teams above them, which will keep them out of contention.

Dimboola’s win last week would provide a good boost to its confidence right before finals and a win over Horsham would ensure they hold the double chance.

Both teams have experienced seniors and are providing many opportunities for their juniors to prove their worth.

A match-up between Emma Buwalda and Olivia Jorgensen will be good to watch.

Horsham’s defensive end of Jedda

Heard and Marnie Lehmann along with Buwalda in goals should see Horsham come away with the win.

It is improbable that Horsham Saints will make the five, even with a win over Stawell, due to percentage.

But the Saints will want to end the season showing they should have been in finals.

Stawell on the other hand will be wanting to begin its finals campaign with confidence and with the hope of snaring the double chance.

The last time these two teams met, the Saints came away with the win, although Stawell was missing a couple of key players.

A Jemma Clarkson and Ashlee Grace match-up will be crucial and it might come down to which team is the most accurate or can win the most rebounds.

Stawell defenders Lisa Fleming and Rachel Wood can be underestimated and are capable of intercepting stray passes at crucial times.

Elly Barnett and Kiana Marshman for the Saints will be looking to shut down options to Zanaiya Bergen and Ebony Summers.

A clash between Ararat and Southern Mallee Giants will be interesting, with the Giants still missing players due to COVID restrictions in Melbourne.

Ararat has finished off the season strongly and will take it up to the Giants.

Steph Thomson will need to shoulder most of the shooting responsibility and Ararat defenders Rebecca Skrabl and Racquel Scott will snatch up any misfeeds.

Youth versus experience in the centre court will see Jesse Bligh and Jodie Hayes have a good battle.

Ararat will be ruing missed opportunities during the season.

It is a team which would have competed well in finals, however Saturday will be its final match for the season.

Minyip-Murtoa should win a game against Nhill convincingly.

The Burras have been close to higher-ranked teams all season and will look to regroup for next year.

Results: Ararat d Nhill 65-39, Horsham Saints d Warrack Eagles 4836, Horsham d Minyip-Murtoa 6632, Dimboola d Southern Mallee Giants 38-37.

Ladder: Southern Mallee Giants 48 points, 129.21 percent; Horsham 40, 166.02; Dimboola 36, 101.26; Warrack Eagles 32, 108.93; Stawell 32, 108.27; Ararat 28, 94.98; Horsham Saints 28, 91.33; MinyipMurtoa 12, 81.57; Nhill 8, 54.11.

Premiers flying

BY DAVID BERRY

R

eigning premier Heidelberg has jumped out of the blocks with two strong showings to kick-start Volleyball Horsham’s winter season.

But the team in black and white did not have it all its own way against a tenacious Nuggets in round two, having to dig deep to record a 2-1 victory.

With the game tied at a set all, the brilliance of setter Nathan Berry and the power hitting of Jordy Weidemann was the difference between the two teams, as Nuggets setter Kara Johnson did everything to get her team over the line in a highly entertaining contest.

Tyler Snowden and Tom Roberts came to the fore with strong service pressure to bust the final set wide open, as Nuggets went toe to toe for the first half of the set.

Hellenic Phantoms recorded their first win of the season, defeating Tsunami in four sets.

It was all Tsunami in the first set as it opened a three-point lead, but up stepped Molly Hobbs who went on a six-point serving spree to turn the set on its head.

Tsunami bounced back to take the third set, before Hellenic Phantoms flexed their muscles and overpowered their opponents to comfortably win the fourth set and the match.

Aidan O’Connor and Dimitrios Vettos received the nod of the referees for their contribution to the win, while Shaun Bray tried hard for the vanquished.

Shados Inala bounced back into winning form with a hard-fought win over an improving Rangers.

It was all Tim Popple’s team in the first set as it steamrolled its opponents with power hitting from Will Saligari and pressure serves.

But to the credit of the Rangers, they returned fire in the second with Ash Francis serving his team into an early four-point lead, before Popple went on a nine-point run, erasing the deficit and opening a lead Rangers could not get back.

At 2-0 up it could have been a whitewash, but Rangers dug deeply, with James Davidson getting his team the ascendancy in the third set, then Laelah Robertson edging her team close to winning.

The teams traded rallies, with Rangers having four set points but not being able to seal the deal, with Shados Inala eventually winning an entertaining game in three sets.

Match of the round

The match of the round this week sees Nuggets up against Hellenic Phantoms as both teams look to stay ahead of the win-loss ledger.

How well Nuggets pass-hitter Cleo Baker and opposite Tyler Puls play their roles will be crucial to the outcome of the match.

Lloyd Baker’s work in the middle, both in defence and on transition attack, will help his team.

Hellenic Phantoms will hope injured setter Tim Carter returns, so he can weave his magic with his power hitters Vettos and O’Connor, if the Phantoms are to continue with their winning ways.

Sinfield inducted in hall of fame Horsham’s first national female basketballer Melissa Sinfield has joined the Basketball Western Australia Hall of Fame.

The former Perth Breakers and Perth Linx player joins four-time Olympian Andrew Vlahov and three-time Chicago Bulls champion and Australian basketball icon Luc Longley among 11 inaugural inductees announced at the weekend.

Sinfield, nee McClure, said she was thrilled to be in the hall of fame.

“I feel very humble to be named in the same bracket as the other inductees,” she said.

“It was a pretty special night. I enjoyed being able to spend the time with some pretty special people.”

Sinfield started playing basketball with Horsham Amateur Basketball Association as a junior before moving to Canberra’s Australian Institute of Sport when she was 16.

In Horsham she trained under Horsham basketball legends Owen Hughan, Dick DeWit and Dennis Wiley.

“Those three coaches are pretty special to me,” she said.

Sinfield played in the Women’s National Basketball League between 1996 and 2006.

Perth Linx retired her number in 2016.

SPECIAL NIGHT: Melissa Sinfield with her husband Peter at the Basketball Western Australia Hall of Fame dinner.

Sinfield spends her time balancing a nursing career with coaching her sons’ basketball team and is also on the NBL One West commission.

“I’m involved with helping to run the competition overseeing operations and rules,” she said.

Sinfield features on a ‘Culture of Champions’ mural at Horsham Basketball Stadium depicting 14 players who cut their teeth in the game with Horsham Amateur Basketball Association before going on to national and international success.

“The mural is pretty cool to be remembered in Horsham. I like to give back to the community and never forget where

I came from,” she said. Sinfield was inducted into the Basketball Western Australia Hall of Fame at a dinner in Perth on Saturday.

“I would have loved to spend the time celebrating with my mum and dad, Sandra and Stuart McClure, but COVID-19 restrictions meant that wasn’t possible,” Sinfield said.

“I’d like to thank my family Peter, Hannah, Mitch and Josh for their support. Thank you to the people around me that helped in any way throughout my career, but more importantly my Mum, Dad and brothers Tim and Nick for the sacrifices and support to allow me to play the sport I loved.”

t did not take long for Stawell policeman Tom Rodgers to stamp his authority on Stawell Amateur Athletic Club.

Rodgers, in only his second run with the club, won the 10-kilometre handicap by the widest margin in 15 races this year.

His first run, in mid-May when he clocked fastest time in the five-kilometre Stephen Baird Handicap, ended not so happily.

Fourth in that race after handicaps were applied, Rodgers disappeared post-race into the forest for a lengthy warm down and returned to the start to find that everyone had left, leaving him stranded with no phone, no wallet or car keys, and shivering with no change of clothes.

Chillingly it crossed his mind that he might have been the victim of an opportunistic thief.

In clear distress, Rodgers found fortune when he connected with course managers in the process of picking up witches hats. One phoned ahead to confirm that his essentials were safe before they were promptly dispatched.

“Someone had picked everything up, not knowing who it belonged to, and had taken it to the clubrooms,” Rodgers explained.

In his maiden win, Rodgers again recorded fastest time, a scintillating 38 minutes flat on a course with more ups than downs.

The hills test the survival of the fittest and it was comforting to know that this policeman is a fitness fanatic, already a veteran of triathlons, half-marathons and half-ironmans.

He quietly mentioned he prepared for the race by running 60 kilometres during the week.

After surging to the lead with 1.5 kilometres to run, Rodgers, 28, exploded away from the nearest chaser, Matilda Iglesias, to win by a staggering 3.37 minutes – about the equivalent of a kilometre.

Endurance specialist Kieran Ryan was a distant third.

In a one-kilometre sub-juniors race, Claire Christian earned bragging rights over the boys – Tom Whyte and Flynn Davies – with a narrow win.

On Saturday, the 16km Keith Haymes Living Legend Handicap celebrates the life of the club’s 91-year-old founder.

Win on home ground

tation runner, but decided to sign up and compete with the club.

‘Tay’ as she likes to be called, glided through the finish gates and was the second fastest female runner for the day.

The Watkins family race is a championship run with all runners starting together.

After handicaps were applied, Watkins finished ahead of runner-up Natalie Beer by 1.05 minutes, with Nicki Blackie a further minute behind in third place.

The event attracted 20 runners who were blessed with sunshine for the out-and-back course mainly on sealed roads.

This was a change from the previous run, which had an unavoidable water hazard.

Mark Thompson was fastest on course, with Tessa Thompson first female home.

The club has been completing five virtual races during the lockdown weekends.

President Shev Healy said the virtual races were a great way to keep momentum within the club.

The highlight of the presentations was celebrating Peter Gibson’s 500th club run.

Placing fifth, he still runs with stamina after starting with the club 35 years ago. He has won 20 races and has had many roles.

The club’s next run is the Peter Gibson handicap on Sunday, starting at the Dunnesworthy common on SawPit Flat Road Ararat.

Fun runners are welcome for both club events.

Finals on track... for now Following a stop-start season full of uncertainty, Horsham District Football Netball League clubs will start their 2021 finals campaigns at the weekend. NoradjuhaQuantong skipper Jason Kerr and Laharum coach and vice-captain Erin Mellington are looking forward to finals action despite a lack of crowds thanks to a ban on spectators. Both will enjoy a week off after celebrating respective senior and A Grade minor premierships. Mellington, whose Demons outfit is chasing backto-back flags, said she hoped the league could get through a full finals series despite evolving COVID-19 restrictions throughout the year. “I think everyone is just excited about being able to play,” she said. “Hopefully by the grand final we can have crowds.” Kerr, who will lead from the sidelines after undergoing knee surgery, said this year was a different one for the Bombers for several reasons. “As Noradjuha-Quantong I don’t think we’ve finished on top before, so it’s exciting,” he said. “It’s good to have the week off and keep everyone fresh.” Kerr is also hoping for restrictions around spectators to ease. “The atmosphere is strange but there’s not much we can do so we just have to deal with it,” he said. “We’re just happy to play.” Football, netball previews, pages 43 and 48.
