The 39th annual competition at Horsham Town Hall on Friday, Saturday and Sunday will feature more than 200 competitors from clubs across Victoria and South Australia. Horsham principal coach Kylie Hermans said competitors performing 151 solo items alone reflected the interest the competition was generating. “We have girls competing in every division from sub-juniors through to seniors and we expect intense competition. The Horsham event is a major regional competition and I encourage anyone keen to see a display of sporting skills such as discipline, teamwork, technique and athleticism to join us,” she said.

questions. Mr Davies, despite being strongly outspoken about construction of a multi-use sports stadium in Horsham showground, said he had no affiliation with any group or movement. He said he was simply a concerned ratepayer who might be able to offer something to a debate based on his experience. He added that ratepayer and resident group meetings he had attended and more discussions in the general community had heightened his concerns. Mr Davies has had major responsibilities to help overcome development issues in Horsham in the past, mainly involving the district’s volatile soils. Projects have included Horsham Aquatic Centre, Kalkee Road Children’s Hub, the Anzac footbridge

across the Wimmera River, Horsham Town Hall redevelopment and more. “Of course my part has involved structural perspectives, but I want to suggest that during this long association with public projects I’ve also gained an understanding of where they fit and how they fulfil roles in communities,” he said. “I don’t profess to be an expert on everything when it comes to socialdevelopment projects, but I’d like to think I have some insight into what’s of value to the community.” Mr Davies said speculation that he might be perceived as part of a ‘negative camp’ in the City to River planning debate was ‘completely’ wrong. “I really like the riverfront concept and I have plenty of positive ideas which are not, but I believe could be, included in the plan,” he said.

Mr Davies said he remained adamantly against, based on experience, major sports-centre development at the showgrounds. “When you start mucking around with soils and flood zones, especially in that area between the showgrounds and the gardens, which if you have a look is well documented, you will have problems,” he said. “My big question to councillors remains – why not look at developing a new sports-centre precinct in the north-west of Horsham? “It would be ideal because, from an engineering and planning perspective, you can start from scratch and considering we know a lot more than we ever knew before, we could create something quite special.” Continued page 3

Motoring trios en route for charity T

BY LOTTE REITER

here are probably many reasons why someone would buckle themselves into a 30-plusyear-old vehicle and motor across thousands of kilometres of Australian terrain.

For a contingent of Wimmera go-getters, the journey is part of an annual fundraising effort helping to brighten the lives of Australian children and their families. The 2019 Variety Bash, Australia’s largest and longest-running charity motoring event, officially started in Melbourne yesterday. The 11-day campaign, finishing on August 30 in Geraldton, Western Australia, is an event with a reputation across the nation for its fun and frivolity, and millions of dollars raised for children’s charity Variety. ACE Radio Broadcasters, including The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM, is a major supporter of Variety and is backing Wimmera teams taking the trek. ACE Radio Horsham station general manager Brendan O’Loughlin, in his fourth year participating in the Variety Bash, has strapped himself in for the ride in car 1494. He will join ACE Radio network chief executive Mark Taylor and ACE Radio host Jon Vertigan. Other Horsham cars include 113, seating Brendan Khan, Rick Smith and Alan Perry, and 303, featuring Mark and David Ballinger and Brendan Netherway. Together, the three teams have raised

SPIRITED FUNDRAISERS: Wimmera 2019 Variety Bash drivers, from left, ACE Radio Horsham station general manager Brendan O’Loughlin, Mark Ballinger, Brendan Netherway, Rick Smith, Brendan Khan and Alan Perry started an 11-day motoring trek across Australia yesterday. Picture: LOTTE REITER about $60,000 this year, achieved through various fundraising efforts across Horsham district. Their donation will help Variety continue to provide vital services and equipment for children living with a disability, facing sickness or experiencing disadvantage. Mr Khan said when he first participated in Variety Bash about six years ago, his team raised about $7000. This year, they have contributed more than $20,000. “I’ve always been a charity type of person,” he said. “My family has always supported children in unfortunate circumstances and the Variety Bash is all about fundraising for those children in need. “The bash comes around quickly,

but we’re doing more and more each year. We have a regular fundraiser event at the Railway Hotel in Murtoa where we raise about $5000. “It gives you a really good feeling to put smiles on faces.”

Making a difference

The Variety Bash is more than a scenic drive with mates through some of Australia’s greatest regional and remote landscapes. It is also a chance for teams to see first-hand the effects of their fundraising, with participants visiting communities and providing a range of much-needed equipment to schools and organisations along the way. Mr O’Loughlin said many cars would have toys and presents for chil-

Kealy appeal over Henty roads Motorists informing Member for Lowan Emma Kealy of road hazards in her electorate have revealed up to 29 hazards on the Henty Highway between Horsham and Warracknabeal. Ms Kealy said a regional bus driver had provided details about the hazards on a 57-kilometre stretch of the highway. “The bus driver also counted 670 road patches, an average of one every 83 metres, on the same stretch of highway,” she said. Ms Kealy added the driver and other motorists had contacted her with concerns that road-hazard signs were presenting as much a hazard as deteriorating road surfaces. Ms Kealy said the highway was an example of continuing deterioration

of major regional roads and the use of multiple road-hazard signs appeared to be a ploy to avoid fixing the problem. “This incredible amount of road-hazard signs, about one every two kilometres, is a clear statement that the Henty Highway is in urgent need of repair,” she said. “For many of our local residents our regional road network is their daily workplace. “It is simply not good enough that our roads are so poorly maintained that our people are putting their lives at risk just doing their job, taking the kids to school or going to footy or netball training.” Ms Kealy said with Victoria’s road toll 80 percent higher than for the same time last year it was critical the

State Government made a commitment to repair major regional roads. “Labor doesn’t hesitate to throw millions of dollars at Melbourne’s roads but we are getting peanuts to halt the degradation of our rural road network and reverse this alarming trend,” she said. “There are no second chances when it comes to road safety and for every week the government fails to act the more local lives are being placed at risk. “People just want safe roads they are entitled to and deserve.” Ms Kealy called on Roads Minister and Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford to ‘immediately’ take action to make the Henty Highway safe to allow ‘hazardous’ signs to be removed.

dren to bring ‘extra excitement and joy’ to communities. “The Variety Bash is a lot of fun for people participating. But more importantly, its focus is on helping children in need, so we distribute money into the community as we go,” he said. “We also have 245 bubble wands in our car that we’ll hand out. The plan is to leave a trail of bubbles behind us and cover the Nullarbor.” Variety Bash drivers and crews will leave Warrnambool today to travel to Hahndorf, before making pit-stops in Whyalla, Ceduna, Madura, Kalgoorlie, Leonora, Mt Magnet and Geraldton. The campaign, different each year, is a pre-determined route notorious for its off-track exploration.

Mr O’Loughlin said there was plenty of upkeep work for the restored or modified cars involved to allow the vehicles to cope with ‘back tracks’, often featuring unsealed and muddy roads and the odd bump or two. “The cars are required to be more than 30 years old, so there’s a lot of maintenance work involved. They need to be built to be able to cope with creek crossings and rough roads,” he said. “More than 90 cars were involved in the Variety Bash last year, and we helped to raise about $1.5-million. “Hopefully we’re able to achieve a similar amount this time around.” People can donate to a Variety Bash car or the Variety charity online at www.variety.org.au/vic.

Engineer worried From page 1 “I fear we are looking at setting up facilities that would be well below par for what we would expect for a modern Horsham,” Mr Davies said. “I also worry that if what is presented gets through then many of the questionable aspects of the plan, which many people would be unaware of, will be set in concrete, which would be a disaster.” The Horsham council has continually stressed that the City to River plan, aimed to ultimately provide direction for development in the city, is purely speculative and open for constructive criticism. A call for public comment on the plan, which encompasses a large area connecting Horsham central business district with a central river precinct, has been the subject of a significant

a y

promotional campaign. The council has invited public comment on the plan until August 30. Mr Davies has a speculative list of questions to the Horsham community, asking people what they know and understand about the masterplan. His questions cover issues such as remodelling of a Horsham city office block, parking, a new housing estate, shifting of Horsham sporting clubs, reshaping plans for Horsham City Oval, siting of a multi-purpose sports facility, Horsham Showground issues, north-west Horsham opportunities, Horsham soil details, school presentations, timing issues and costing and rates.

Leeming honoured

The rescue of an elderly woman from a car crash in 2015 has led to Tim Leeming of Coojar, south of Harrow, receiving a Bravery Medal. Mr Leeming was one of 74 Australians to win recognition in latest Australian Bravery Awards. Governor-General David Hurley announced award recipients on Sunday. The incident that led to Mr Leeming receiving his national decoration happened on October 22, 2015 on the Coleraine-Edenhope Road near Pigeon Ponds. At about 2.30pm, a woman driving alone on the road lost control of her vehicle and hit a tree before the vehicle flipped onto its roof. The driver was conscious but trapped inside the badly damaged vehicle when the car started to emit smoke. Mr Leeming arrived on the scene and despite smoke and debris quickly went to the car while a bystander called emergency number triple zero. Through the smoke and tinted windows, Mr Leeming was able to observe the trapped woman and on entering the vehicle managed to release her from her seatbelt before pulling her outside. He then carried the woman away from the wreck. A short time later the vehicle became engulfed in flames. “Australian Bravery Awards recognise and celebrate Australians who, faced with a dangerous or perilous situation, think not of themselves or their own safety but about others,” Mr Hurley said. “These individuals deserve our admiration – they are an inspiration and examples of the sort of selfless sacrifice that we can all aspire to.” The Governor-General announced 17 recipients of Bravery Medals, 20 Commendations for Brave Conduct and nine Group Bravery citations.

Safety priority in Kaniva clean-up

he state’s environmental watchdog will focus on public safety and the prevention of environmental damage as it investigates and manages illegally dumped waste south of Kaniva.

Environment Protection Authority Victoria north-west regional manager Scott Pigdon said the process involving the dump site about 15 kilometres from Kaniva was complex ‘and would take some time’. “It will remain a priority for the EPA,” he said. The dump area has chemicals including hydrocarbons and solvents in at least 20 underground sites on private property on Kaniva-Edenhope Road. “Our first concern is protecting the community and the environment from any potential hazard,” Dr Prigdon said. “The investigation and management of the site will be thorough and can’t be rushed. “When the dump sites were first discovered, EPA alerted West Wimmera Shire Council, GWMWater and other agencies. EPA and GWMWater have been monitoring the site’s groundwater; it shows no signs of contamination, nor is there a risk from chemical vapours.” Dr Pigdon said GWMWater confirmed testing revealed no change in the quality of water in Kaniva and did not anticipate any changes. “While EPA is still assessing the nature and the amount of waste hidden on the property, the results found so far also show the groundwater is unlikely to be affected,” he said. “However, EPA and GWMWater will continue this cautious approach and will expand the groundwater monitoring program onto the property itself.” Dr Pigdon said the EPA investigation, ‘with

a long way still to go’, was already a major undertaking. EPA investigators have used aerial drones fitted with ground penetrating radar, GPR, to search for buried waste – a first for an Australian regulator,” he said. “Locating buried dump sites with potentially different types of waste on such a large property is a big challenge. It is vital that it be done with sufficient care to ensure the safety of staff working on the site, and to prevent any further damage to the environment or danger to the public. “That same care is being put into the legal process, and that will mean a series of different stages. EPA will direct the landowner to undertake actions to secure the property and understand potential risks on the site, and those actions will lead to the development of a clean-up plan.” Dr Pigdon said EPA continued to work with other government bodies, such as WorkSafe, Country Fire Authority and Grampians Regional Emergency Management Team, and keep other agencies such as Agriculture Victoria informed of any updates. He added a comprehensive emergency management response plan was being prepared and EPA would continue to provide regular updates to the public. More than 100 people from the community attended an EPA open-house event to learn more about the illegal waste dump site and hear the latest from the government organisations managing the response. EPA plans to hold another event in a redesigned format based on feedback from those who attended the open house. People seeking information can visit EPA website www.epa.vic.gov.au/ kaniva, call 1300 EPA VIC or email northwest. mailbox@epa.vic.gov.au with any questions.

Let’s get serious with our waste M

ember for Lowan Emma Kealy jumped out of the blocks in declaring her neck of the woods off limits as a dumping ground for metropolitan recycling waste.

It was a pre-emptive move and a clear indication that the growing amount of recycling waste across the country has more than started to play on minds. What seems to be missing in how governments are dealing with the recycling quandary are profound ways to move forward and eliminate this issue from occurring in the future – without losing any of our consumer luxuries or our environmental credibility. Our philosophical approach needs adjusting. For a start, we shouldn’t be considering recyclable material as simple landfill waste. We must consider it a resource and future asset. This means we have to continue or start to efficiently sort and store this product. If that has to happen in the regions in contained bunkers without risk of contamination then so be it – however the regions have every right to demand rent and-or economic reparations. If we have too much of this material being produced to manage, we must stop the bulk of the least recyclable of materials,

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

such as one-use petro-chemical plastics, from entering the market at their source. This means some tough legislation and the promotion of appropriate replacement technology for throwaway products that have minimal long-term impact on the environment. This can only be achieved with a clear understanding of the overall issue. The State Government’s latest ban on lightweight one-use plastic bags, while making good sense, had a counter-intuitive aspect that suggested otherwise. As well as long-life petro-chemical bags – proven wildlife destroyers – the ban also included environmentally friendly compostable starch bags ‘to avoid confusion’. What the hey? The recycling process, which apart from anything else makes us feel good about being responsible consumers, could only have gained momentum with growing demand for waste products. This happened. Yet similar to many markets, it was inevitable that production would eventually

outstrip demand and this is the situation with which we are now confronted. For a lack of all other alternatives, we could burn this waste asset, perhaps to power industry. It sounds far from ideal but we have technology available to do this in such a way that the only emission can be carbon dioxide. We all know that CO2, despite being a natural everyday gas, is the friend of global warming and this move would no doubt attract considerable opposition. But if we did this, to be responsible as well as countering backlash, we could come up with more significant off-setting carbon-retention schemes – perhaps a massive ramping up of Landcare revegetation projects. We’re at a pressure point and people need to have confidence in their household recycling diligence and recycling services and that their efforts are worth something. Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack assured everyone during a visit to Horsham last week that the Federal Government was exploring ways to tackle the waste-recycling dilemma. “It starts with local governments and then state governments, but we’ve taken national leadership on this,” he said. We hope so. This issue isn’t going away in a hurry.

The annual awards recognise team members, stores and store managers for their achievements in the past financial year. Judges mark stores on areas such as growth in volunteer numbers, an aspect that reflected well for the Horsham entry. Horsham store manager Heather Gardener called for more staff four months ago and added half a dozen to her team.

Judges also assess sales in general as well as Vinnies’ own brand of products, success of a VIP loyalty card, how performance aligns with Vinnies mission values and leadership, and management performance. Heather Gardner has been store manager for almost 10 years and said the award reflected a team effort. “We are just really proud to win this award. It’s a huge achievement,” she said.

Webster submits policy on health C

BY DEAN LAWSON

oncerns about regional healthcare across Australia have led to Member for Mallee Anne Webster developing a regional-healthcare reform policy.

Dr Webster has submitted the policy to Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt and is set to meet with him to discuss proposals. She has also met and sent the reform document to Regional Services, Decentralisation and Local Government Minister Mark Coulton. Dr Webster, who was in Horsham on electoral duties with Acting Prime Minister Michael McCormack last week, said she was committed to seeing change that opened the door for regional people to access more services in a timely manner. “This is not just a Mallee issue – it’s a national issue and an issue we are working on addressing,” she said. Dr Webster also expressed her concern about circumstances surrounding embattled private bulk-billing service Tristar Medical Group. “Regional healthcare is critical for our region,” she said. “What we know is that Tristar has been providing an essential service in the regions, in particular the Mallee electorate, and I’m keen to hear their point of view on what’s happening.” Dr Webster is scheduled to meet with representatives from Tristar, which claims a federal shift in policy and bureaucracy involving overseas doctors has placed the group under severe financial pressure and is a threat to bulk-bill medical services in the regions.

“How do services work together so they are effective and viable over the long term and how do we make finite resources effective and efficient?”

– Anne Webster

“I’m very concerned about the shortage of GPs in regional settings and I’ve spent considerable time discussing issues with various stakeholders in developing the reform policy,” she said. Dr Webster said other critical regional issues that needed addressing centred on mental health and age. “I’ll be interested to see results from the Royal Commission into aged care and happy the Federal Government has committed money to mental-health reform that starts at primary-school level in a root-and-branch approach,” she said. Dr Webster added she remained keenly aware of calls for a mental-health crisis centre in Horsham. “I’m keen to continue engaging stakeholders to determine what is needed in Horsham and the Wimmera and to scope out what’s needed right across the electorate,” she said. “We need to know what services are out there and how do, or can, they work together. “How do services work together so they are effective and viable over the long term and how do we make finite resources effective and efficient? “That’s all part of health-care reform.” • Tristar hamstrung, page 13

CLASSIC: Rachel Young’s 1976 Ford Cortina TD is her pride and joy. The Ararat woman has owned the car for 30 years after buying it from her brother Paul at the age of 16, and it has taken her to places she never thought she’d go. Twice the car has won top prize at Geelong’s All Ford Day, it has featured on the Classic Restos TV show and racing legends Craig Lowndes, Dick Johnson and Allan Moffat have even signed its air cleaner. Young said after three decades of ownership, she still loves the car as much as ever. “I’ve loved it ever since I saw it,” she said. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Sheep survival workshops Farmers keen to improve ewe performance and lamb survival can attend Agriculture Victoria workshops at Avoca and Edenhope next week. The workshops, free of charge and funded through BestWoolBestLamb and Australian Wool Innovation, will feature presentations from sheep specialists Dr Robert Suter and Tim Leeming. The speakers will discuss how ewe-management plans can lead to better lamb survival.

Dr Suter, Agriculture Victoria’s senior veterinary officer, will discuss the symptoms, management and prevention of metabolic disorders such as hypocalcaemia, pregnancy toxaemia and acidosis. He will share his 40 years of experience in sheep health. Mr Leeming is a farmer and consultant who with his wife Georgie run a self-replacing prime-lamb flock and seed-stock business, weaning more than 10,000 lambs annually.

The Leemings have participated in many industry trials including a maternal ewe project. The workshops, from 10am to 2pm, will be at Avoca Community Centre on Monday and Edenhope Football Netball Club on Tuesday. People can register online at www.eventbrite.com.au/o/agriculture-victoria-11335009512.

Family fun focus for Operation 19:14 T

BY LOTTE REITER

he illustrations of a young Horsham creative will feature in a 14-day devotional as part of this years’ Operation 19:14 family-fun day on Sunday.

The church-organised event offers free activities and entertainment to Wimmera families and children at Horsham’s Sawyer Park from noon to 4pm. Horsham College year-11 student Nikita Deckert, completing year-12 studio arts, has volunteered more than 16 hours and produced 28 illustrations for a devotional that will be included in event showbags. The aspiring artist said she was excited at the opportunity to share her passion with her community. “I wanted to do something for younger children. I also wanted to be able to do something for God,” she said. “This is a way for me to put my art into that space and get it out there. “It is a career-based interest as well as a hobby.” Committee member Yolande Grosser, who wrote the devotional booklet, said Nikita was an immediate choice as an artist. “She has four younger siblings so she knows what young children like, and her drawings are just amazing,” she said. “There will be 500 printed devotionals that will be available for every child who attends. “They will be in a goodie bag that is also stuffed with snacks and information.” Operation 19:14 is a popular family event on

“There’ll be face-painting and badgemaking, hip-hop dance workshops, five giant inflatables, the Sawyer Park miniature train will be operating and performer Sean W Smith will be the main music stage show at 3pm”

the Wimmera calendar, mainly aimed at primary school-aged students. Mrs Grosser said this year’s event would involve about 200 volunteers from churching communities in the region. She said there would be a variety of activities running for the whole family to enjoy. “Operation 19:14 ran for six years, and then we had a Sabbath, and it’s in its second year back this year,” she said. “It’s a huge, free, family fun day with so many amazing things on offer. “There’ll be face-painting and badge-making, hip-hop dance workshops, five giant inflatables, the Sawyer Park miniature train will be operating and performer Sean W Smith will be the main music stage show at 3pm. “There are always huge lines, so people are encouraged to look around at what they think they’d most like to do and go straight for that first.” Mrs Grosser said there would also be a sausage sizzle, hot jam donuts, gingerbread cookies and other food and drinks available on the day. People can visit www.operation1914.org for more information.

° ° ° ° ° 14 14 17 14 15 17 20 Nhill stop for film festival A selection of some of Australia’s leading short films will feature at Nhill Memorial Community Centre on Friday night as part of a St Kilda Film Festival Victorian Tour. Five dramas, one animation, two documentaries, one horror and two comedies will feature during the screening, which starts at 7.30pm. The presentation will showcase some of the winners of the 36th annual St Kilda Film Festival. Some of the selected films include: ‘Judas Collar’, a drama about a wild camel in outback Australia that is captured and fitted with a tracking device known as a Judas Collar. This film was the winner of the Best Short Film and Best Director awards and is eligible for consideration in a short-film award category at the Oscars. ‘The Hitchhiker’ is a 13-minute horror-comedy film directed by Adele Vuko. A wild, prosecco-fuelled road trip takes an

interesting turn with the pickup of a hitchhiker. The magic of the underwater world is unveiled in ‘Flow Effect’, an 11-minute documentary that describes how Liv Roses escapes the overwhelming routine of her daily life, exploring the vast beauty of the ocean. ‘Lost and Found’ is a sevenminute animation drama. The film is the story of a bumbling knitted dinosaur that must unravel himself to save the love of his life. Directed by Clayton Waddell, ‘Shepherd’ is an 11-minute drama that tells the story of an awkward 17-year-old boy who, while on a drunken night out, finds himself pressured to be the type of man that he despises. Festival director Paul Harris said great short films required great imagination. “The selection of shorts showcased on the 2019 Victorian Tour demonstrates this remark-

ably,” he said. Mr Harris said this year’s program spanned genres and explored diverse landscapes from across Australia, each bringing a unique perspective to the screen with vivid creativity. The St Kilda Film Festival is Australia’s oldest publiclyowned film event that provides film buffs across Victoria an opportunity to view some of Australia’s celebrated talent. The three-month Victorian Tour’s visit to Nhill is one of its last screenings. People keen to attend the Nhill event can call Hindmarsh Shire Council on 5391 4444 or email info@hindmarsh.vic. gov.au. The council has advised some of the films contain themes that will require parental guidance. A parent or adult guardian must accompany children under 15. More information about the films is available online at stkildafilmfestival.com.au.

Ratepayers group questions process A

“Some already believe they were wasting their time and that this community process is just to tick ‘community engagement’ boxes, while others have some faith in the process and hope submissions would be genuinely considered”

group claiming to represent Horsham ratepayers and residents has questioned the integrity and legitimacy of Horsham council methods in attracting responses to a 20-year City to River masterplan.

Horsham Rural Ratepayers and Residents fear the Horsham council has adopted an organised school-visiting process as part of a community feedback and submission process to ‘skew results’ with children responses. Group president Di Bell said Horsham had heard ‘ad nauseum’ that the council wanted to ensure views of the community involving the masterplan were heard. “But has the number of replies become the focus, instead of the value and quality of the feedback and submissions?” she said. “We think the answer is ‘yes’. Some parents of Horsham Primary School have reported on a Horsham council staff presentation to children at the school last week. “On the surface this is not a crime, but it’s not appropriate when parents didn’t know, were not asked and might have a completely differing view of the proposal than those presenting. “The most troubling part is that we’ve heard council staff suggested the children in attendance complete the ‘have your say’ questionnaire’. “Mayor Mark Radford said at a public meeting on August 4 that community feedback usually represented

about one percent of our population, and he would like to see that increase to about five percent. “Is this percentage total population including children, or a percentage of adults? “Is this simply about number of responses? “Is this about an embarrassing attempt to gain perceived support for the councils City to River project? “Certainly, any of the students would

struggle to understand the complex issues around community consultation and feedback on such a costly and controversial plan. “As expressed by community members at the public meeting, these plans and reports are large, complex and time-consuming to work through. “Cr Radford was asked, ‘what’s the rush?’” Mrs Bell said further comments from the meeting expressed that a

plan ‘of this size’ needed a six-month process with community involvement. “Community members also expressed concerns that this is the last opportunity for the broader community to have input,” she said. Mrs Bell said Horsham council officer Kevin O’Brien explained the council would select some groups for further input during the next stage of planning. “However, there was no explanation

– Di Bell, pictured inset

of how these would be selected and by whom,” she said. She said the residents group had asked previously how the council would select stakeholders, who would select them and how the council would select project-control groups. “These are very important questions which require answers because outcomes could be determined by those selected,” she said. “Many in the community are still working on their submissions and spending hours reading the background and technical reports and talking with others. “Some already believe they were wasting their time and that this community process is just to tick ‘community engagement’ boxes, while others have some faith in the process and hope submissions would be genuinely considered. “Then there are others who believe this has crossed the line and have lost confidence in the whole process.”

Secondary school students will learn about career options in the interactive digital media industry at a free event in Ararat this month. GamEd Central Grampians will be at Central Grampians Local Learning and Employment Network in Laby Street on August 30. Hosted by Luggarrah, the Friday event will be from 9.30am until 2.30pm and provide an opportunity for students, school staff and the community to connect with industry professionals. Central Grampians LLEN executive officer Jessica Paterson said the event was a must for young people interested in a high-tech career. “GamEd will feature some really interesting presentations from people who have made it in the industry,” she said. “They will be able to provide attendees with a critical view of the interac-

tive digital media world and what it takes to be employed. “High-tech careers are becoming more and more prevalent and will be a real option for students completing their secondary education.” Luggarrah managing director David Parkin said GamEd would focus on technology-based career options in the agriculture, health, multi-media and public-transport industries. “Our forums highlight the transferability of skills to allied industries and provide valuable information on how to pursue a high-tech career,” he said. Mr Parkin said organisers would provide lunch on the day, along with opportunities for gaming competitions and free play. Limited spaces are available and to register people can email david@ luggarrah.com.au by Friday.

Tristar: We’re hamstrung U

nder-siege Tristar Medical Group has declared the absence of a resident doctor in Murtoa, Rupanyup and Minyip an example of the shortage of services gripping regional Australia. Clinical operations executive director Anne Gardner added that cessation of the group’s GP services in the Dunmunkle towns were unrelated to Tristar’s organisational restructure or financial situation. She said Tristar’s previously contracted doctor in the area had obtained his Fellowship and was at a stage in his career where he was free to set up practice anywhere in Australia without restrictions. “The GP chose to relocate to Melbourne, as occurs with the majority of GPs at this level of specialty,” she said. “It is very rare that small communities will retain or attract GPs with Fellowship or General Registration. “The Dunmunkle region is one example of the issues being faced by small communities across Australia.” Mrs Gardner said Tristar planned to remain in communities where it provided bulk-billing services. “Our whole restructure has been focused on sustaining these services and we’re not going anywhere,” she said. “Restructure has seen us close clinics but only where government policy has prevented us from placing a doctor in these clinics. “In Dunmunkle’s case we’re trying to recruit for these towns, but in the current circumstance we’re restricted. “It is a viable practice for one doctor but under restrictions we also need to appoint a supervising doctor and supporting two GPs is not viable.”

Business model

Mrs Gardner said government policy changes through the Department of Immigration had impacted heavily on Tristar’s business model and had led to the internal business restructure. She said changes had led to ‘significant’ increases in investment required by the private organisation to support international medical graduates obtain medical Board Registration in Australia. “Our remote and regional communities unable to retain unrestricted doctors rely heavily on doctors who are obligated to provide services to regional and remote Australia for several years,” she said. “Each International Medical Graduate requires Tristar to outlay a significant investment to facilitate the doctor in obtaining a visa.

FOR THE KIDS: Young Lexie Bailey, 4, leads Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews, left, her dad Michael and other guests into Marrang Kindergarten in Stawell. Lexie attends Marrang’s sister kindergarten Cooinda. Guests at the Premier’s visit to Stawell included Early Childhood Education Parliamentary Secretary Sonya Kilkenny, Northern Grampians councillors including mayor Kevin Erwin and educators.

“In Dunmunkle’s case we are trying to recruit for these towns, but in the current circumstance we are restricted. It is a viable practice for one doctor but under restrictions we also need to appoint a supervising doctor and supporting two GPs is not viable.”

– Anne Gardner

“The time it takes for the Department of Immigration to process a suitably qualified applicant can take 18 months. Our suitably qualified overseas trained GPs are taking up opportunities in countries such as Canada and New Zealand because they can establish medical practices in these countries in one quarter of the time at a quarter of the cost. “Once Tristar outlays the significant cost per applicant and are fortunate not to lose the applicant to another country it can then support the eligible doctor’s pathway to Medical Board Registration. “Board registration restrictions on supervision requirements then prevent Tristar from placing the doctor in a remote or smaller regional community. “Having said all this, Tristar continues to invest in GP recruitment and expects to have about seven GPs available to commence their general practice in larger regional areas that are in need of more doctors within coming months.”

Restructure

Mrs Gardner said Tristar’s restructure process was 90 percent complete. “Without the organisational restructure Tristar would have no option than to commence charging out-of-pocket fees,” she said. “We chose to restructure – rather than charge patients – many of whom are unable to afford to pay $70 or more each time they need to see a doctor. “Tristar is the only provider left in the majority of our communities who continue to provide bulk-billed primary-health care.” Mrs Gardner said Tristar was hopeful of a resolution at a government level. “Tristar is a symptom of the crisis occurring in regional and rural Australia due to limited political will to address the issues.” Member for Mallee Anne Webster is set to meet with Tristar representatives in Mildura to discuss circumstances.

Premier celebrates first enrolments Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has visited Stawell as a countdown to a roll-out of new kindergarten services gets underway. Northern Grampians Shire, including Stawell, is one of the first six municipalities to benefit from an expansion of a three-year-oldkindergarten program next year. Mr Andrews visited Stawell’s Marrang Kindergarten to discuss the reforms, which will give families access to partly subsidised, or in some cases fully subsidised, services. He joined Northern Grampians council, community and childrenservices representatives and educators at the kindergarten to speak about the scheme and celebrate the first enrolments. Mr Andrews said his visit reflected a significant milestone in child-support services. “This is leading our nation and is all about giving our littlest Victorians the best start in life,” he said. “This is not only about those first five years of life, when 90 percent of a child’s brain development oc-

curs, but it’s also about supporting families and cutting the cost of living.” Mr Andrews said the program would save families with young children $5000 every year.” The State Government will invest $5-billion across the state during the next decade to provide a full 15 hours of three-year-old kindergarten. The reform is designed to provide an opportunity for every Victorian child to start kindergarten at the age of three. Families living in Northern Grampians, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack, Buloke, South Gippsland and Strathbogie municipalities will be the first to benefit from subsidised programs in 2020. Service providers have already opened enrolments for the new program across the municipalities. The roll-out will continue progressively across the state after next year, with families in a further 15 regional municipalities to benefit in 2021. This will be expanded in 2022 to give all Vic-

torian three-year-olds access to five hours of funded kindergarten, before being scaled up to a full 15-hour program by 2029. The 2019-20 Victorian Budget included $881.6-million in the threeyear-old kinder rollout, as part of a $4.1-billion broad investment in education. The package included $92.4-million to support early childhood teachers and educators through professional development, mentoring and scholarships. Investment in three-year-old kinder also includes $473.2-million for infrastructure, which will support investment into new and expanded kindergarten facilities. Northern Grampians mayor Kevin Erwin said the council was excited the municipality was one of the first to access the reforms. “It’s going to mean that our children will have a major head start in their learning and development with the extra year of kinder, not to mention a whole lot of fun as well,” he said.

Marnoo to feature state’s top Merinos The state’s best Merino sheep breeders will gather at Marnoo on Friday. The event, at Marnoo Events Centre from 10am, will feature 28 Victorian Merino studs from across the state and more than $12,000 in gate prizes and awards. Organisers expect between 800 and 1000 people to attend. The event, which will have been running for 30 years this year, has expanded from a smaller localised event into a statewide field day. Organisers brought it forward

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

to August to fit in with national shows and sales. The event site has also had an upgrade with Northern Grampians Shire Council regrading a 100x40m section of ground to prevent water pooling, which has been a problem in the past. The works will allow water to flow away from the area more efficiently, turning the site into a more attractive grassed area for marquees and pens to be constructed for the event. Mayor Kevin Erwin said the expansion of the event showed great

initiative. “I encourage people to get along to Marnoo on Friday and see some of the best rams the state has to offer and enjoy the day with everything else that’s happening as well,” he said.

FENCING WARATAH FENCING ‘CultureWARATAH of Champions’ DEMONSTRATION DAY DEMONSTRATION DAY BY COLIN MACGILLIVRAY

immera basketball royalty will be feted at the unveiling of a ‘Culture of Champions’ mural at Horsham Basketball Stadium on Sunday.

The mural depicts 14 Horsham Amateur Basketball Association players who have gone on to achieve national and international success. While the identities of the players are being kept under wraps until the unveiling, association coaching legend Owen Hughan said the criteria for selection was that each player had to have played in NBL or WNBL competition, or represented Australia internationally. All-abilities athletes are also included. Mr Hughan said the mural, which will be along the wall behind the stadium’s numbertwo court, was a great way to recognise the outstanding achievements of top-class athletes from a small rural area. “Compared to the size of our population, we’ve done very well,” he said. “When the stadium was built more than 30 years ago, I don’t think people had any idea of the size of what was going to happen.

Morning singalong Ararat’s Morning Melodies singalong session is back at Ararat RSL on August 29. Regional artist Jan Pope leads the monthly session, which features a wide variety of tunes from several different genres. Morning Melodies is on the last Thursday of each month and is free and open to the community. Patrons are invited to enjoy morning tea from 10am, with the melodies starting at 10.30am.

Weekly Wool Market The Australian wool market has had another tumultuous series, suffering further large losses after those experienced in the previous week. The suspension of wool auctions in South Africa reduced the overall global supply but this did little to bolster demand here in Australia. Major auction players were again absent and those buyers that were active continually reduced their buying basis, as they accumulated wool. The market opened with the prices generally 100 cents below those achieved at the previous sale. The lack of buyer confidence meant that prices deteriorated as the series progressed. By the end of the first day prices had generally fallen by 110 to 140 cents, the AWEX Eastern Market Indicator (EMI) fell by 112 cents on the back of the losses, a reduction of 6.7%. In percentage terms this was the largest fall since 2008. The weakness continued day two with the market unable to find a solid level, as buyers continued to lower their basis as the sale progressed. The EMI lost a further 51 cents, losing a total of 163 cents for the series, closing the week at 1513 cents. The EMI fell by 9.7% for the series, again the largest weekly fall since 2003. The last time the EMI was at this level was June 2017. The highlight of the week, in an otherwise gloomy market was the good support for Non-Mulesed types. A small number of buyers competed strongly for these types, pushing them as much as 200 cents (clean) higher than similar types. The market downturn was met with very firm seller resistance, 16.7% of wool was withdrawn prior to sale, followed by a passed in rate of 35.8%, the highest figure since 2003. The Western region has a one-week recess next week, with only Sydney and Melbourne in operation the national offering reduces to 33,696 bales.

New off-leash area

NETBALL PROJECT: From left, Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison with SHS Civil managers Jacob and Lachie Hamilton.

Ararat has a new off-leash fenced dog area at Gordon Street Reserve. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said there were now nine off-leash areas in the rural city. He said providing pet drinking facilities and waste-collection bag dispensers at some dog off-leash areas, where practical, would help residents comply with municipal laws requiring them to clean up after their dogs. The nine off-leash dog areas in Ararat, which are all signed, are: Gordon Street Reserve within the fenced area; Ford Street Park; Warawee Park; Elizabeth Park; Kokoda Park; Green Hill Lake, overflow end; King Street reserve; Queen Street park; and Centenary Park.

Court rebuild to start

rarat district contractor SHS Civil is scheduled to start work on new $430,000 netball courts at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval in October.

Ararat Rural City Council announced the timetable after confirming the tender for the works program. Chief executive Tim Harrison said the council was pleased to announce the tender for the construction of the courts had been awarded to an Ararat-based business. Dr Harrison said netball court construction would mark the start of on-ground work on an Alexandra Active Corridor Project, with funding through the State Government’s Female Friendly Facilities Fund. “It’s fantastic to see local businesses

submitting competitive tenders that allow the council to support our own economic growth,” he said. “Awarding tenders to local business has a flow-on effect to other local companies, so we are really pleased to have SHS Civil on board.” SHS Civil managers Jacob and Lachie Hamilton said they were pleased the business had been the successful tenderer. “It’s great to see the council supporting local, and I encourage other local businesses to tender for work with the organisation,” Jacob Hamilton said. “SHS Civil has a strong connection to the local football club too, so it’s great that we are able to work on this project.” The council has recently adopted a revised procurement policy that gives Ararat

district businesses a five percent weighting for all tenders. Dr Harrison said the netball-court work would include demolition of a toilet block, removal of a large tree and part of a hedge, which would be replanted on a slightly different alignment. He said two netball courts would be built along with player and scoring shelters, storage sheds for home-team equipment, and a terraced area to the north for seating. He added the area would be fully fenced and the courts would have a synthetic surface. Specialist contractor Match Point will install the surface. Dr Harrison said the hope was that work would start in October, weather dependent, after the end of the 2019 football and netball seasons.

orsham Regional Art Gallery Director Brenda Wellman will welcome Indigenous artist Kent Morris and Wimmera sculptor Dónal Molloy-Drum to the official opening of exhibitions on Friday night.

The opening of Kent Morris: Unvanished and Dónal Molloy-Drum: Decades, will start at the gallery at 6pm. Morris, a Barkindji man based in Melbourne, explores the connections between contemporary Indigenous experience and contemporary cultural practices and their continuation and evolution. His photography reconstructs the shapes and structures of the built environment to reflect the rhythms, form and geometric designs of the first people of Australia. Molly-Drum is influenced by the vast space of the Wimmera and Mallee, where he lives. The landscape has directed his practice to a place of refinement and expression of simple line and form. The use of building materials can seem quite removed from the artist’s rural home but are a strong reminder of another life lived in busy cities and his suburban upbringing in Dublin. A third exhibition, ‘As far as the eye can see’, is from the New South Wales, Blue Mountains City Art Gallery.

‘As far as the eye can see’ presents the works of 22 Australian artists who celebrate the diversity and depth of current print-making practice. Each artist examines their relationship with the land through a variety of print media and techniques. They describe the vast scale and intimate details of our diverse natural environmental and explore Australia’s unique and varied geography. Mrs Wellmann said gallery openings were a great opportunity to meet artists and share insight into their practice, what inspires them and how the creative process could change from original thought to the completed artwork or installation. The gallery will also host a free Friday ‘meet the exhibition’ morning tea from 10am to 11.30am on August 30. Gallery visitors can join gallery curator Alison Eggleton as she shares insight into the exhibitions. The exhibitions are on display until Sunday, November 10, with the gallery open daily. Opening times are Monday to Friday, 10am to 5pm, and Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, noon to 4pm.

Commissioner guest in Ararat V

ictorian Small Business Commissioner Judy O’Connell will speak at an Ararat Rural City Council Business Breakfast on September 11.

Ms O’Connell, who advocates on behalf of Victorian small businesses to make sure they have a fair and competitive operating environment, will join other guests at Chalambar Golf Club from 7am to 8.45am. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said hearing Ms O’Connell’s thoughts on the economic environment small businesses were operating in, especially in light of a revitalisation of the region’s business association, would be fantastic. Dr Harrison said another guest speaker would be the new Ararat regional business association president, to be decided at an annual meeting on September 4. “There will be plenty of time for networking before the guest speakers present and I’m sure our local business operators will have many questions for Ms O’Connell,” he said. “The council’s business breakfasts aim to inform, educate and inspire, and we welcome all local business operators to attend for networking and learning. “No doubt we’ll all learn a lot from Ms O’Connell.” Ms O’Connell comes from a family of small-business owners – both her father and two sisters operate their own businesses – and she is an accomplished small-business engagement leader with

Mrs Hewitt joined the board as a Warracknabeal kindergarten teacher and farmer with aspirations of bringing the voice of young people and parents to the health group. She worked on various sub-committees and was particularly passionate about a health and wellbeing portfolio. Board chair Julia Hausler said Mrs Hewitt was a ‘very’ considered board director. “Glenda was always well pre-

pared and well read prior to our meetings,” she said. “When she spoke there was always a lot of thought and research behind her comments. “Glenda had a noble ability for always considering people in front of business or operational matters.” Fellow board director Dr John Aitken said Mrs Hewitt had been a great contributor to the community with her years of service to early-childhood education and development. “Glenda and Carolyn Morcom were the two board members who

supported me most through my PhD project based on unearthing the health needs of our community,” Dr Aitken said. “They attended almost all the Community Action Research Group meetings during those couple of years. “Glenda’s experience working with young people and young families was invaluable in helping to develop strategies for addressing the health issues affecting the community.” During her time on the board, Mrs Hewitt was awarded Victorian Kindergarten Teacher of the Year.

Don Rush: I

sporting prodigy while a student at Wesley College and rubbed shoulders with some of Australia’s cricketing greats while playing as a teenager with South Melbourne’s first eleven. He also trained with VFL club Richmond and left a promising sporting career in Melbourne to return to Jung to help his father work the family farm. It was back in the Wimmera and playing for Jung where people marvelled at his talent and even at times questioned the legitimacy of his off-breaks, which some suggested spun far too much to be legal. In representative games he took opponents by surprise, even visiting elite players, and when playing in Melbourne Country Week remarkably often attracted his own crowd of Melbourne fans. There was little doubt Don was blessed with a sporting gift – an essence that placed him apart from mere mortals whenever he picked up bat or ball. For many who played with and against him, he represented the quintessential laconic sport star. When gripped in an intense cricketing struggle, he would regularly take a moment between overs to inquire, often in colourful banter with his cousin Alan ‘Jock’ McRae, about the results of some obscure horse race. He was also a cricketer who seemed to at times struggle to understand why everyone couldn’t do what he did. On one occasion during a critical moment in a Horsham association A Grade match many years ago, Rushie noticed the nervousness pouring from an inexperienced teenage tailender walking on to the ground to face some hostile fast bowling.

t was perhaps how effortless he made it seem that was so special.

Whether quilting a ball through the covers with a trademark square drive, turning the ball sideways with one of his high-rev offspinners or taking a miraculous catch – it looked easy. Don Rush holds pride of place on the mantel as easily one of the best allround cricketers from the region. He was also an enigma. As much as he possessed the critical edge, competitive nature and physical gifts of a natural sportsman, he was also laconically quirky, cheeky and at times downright hilarious. When embroiled in a tough high-level cricket match he always made what was incredibly hard not only bearable, but fun, could remove pressure with a simple quip and a grin and then follow up with a devastating display of brilliance. Don Rush, 82, died while in care in Ballarat after a long and cruel battle with dementia. For many, knowing one of Horsham’s greatest sporting personalities had been afflicted with such a crippling disease had been hard to absorb, let alone accept. Don had been gone from the Wimmera for many years but had left such an impression that news of his death immediately conjured a mix of heroic sporting stories and humorous anecdotes. Don, or ‘Rushie’, appeared far from athletic or muscular. He had an ‘everyday’ appearance that belied his natural gifts, and it was perhaps only a natural but humble swagger that provided a hint of what lay underneath. Don had emerged as a schoolboy

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

Mr Jochinke said many farmers were closely following weather forecast modelling and hoping predictions of an average to slightly wetter-than-average winter came true. “We are basically looking for a solid average year where it rains in winter and then rains again during a nice mild spring,” he said.

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

He’s one of a kind Rushie had been at the non-striking end leaning on his bat watching carnage unfold while gliding to a casual century. On making his observation he met the young player halfway to the wicket and quipped in all seriousness: “I dunno about you, but I always like to hit the first one for four!” I can’t remember who the tearaway bowler was, but simple survival seemed much more appropriate at the time. Don was simply unflappable. It’s a moment in cricket I will never forget. It was one of many unforgettable moments involving this fascinating and lovable character. On another occasion, Rushie, meandering off the field after smashing another ton while of course sporting his trademark one glove and floppy hat, inquired to the scorers about his tally at the end of his innings. “Was it 175?” he asked. “No Don, it was 178,” came the reply. “Rubbish, give me a look at the book,” he said again. It was the first time he had inquired about his score during his monumental innings and despite the size of his knock had been keeping count in his head until the end. The scorers had it wrong. The acknowledgement of Rushie as someone special started early for me. As a primary-school youngster I attended a cricket match at Horsham City Oval with next-door neighbour and Don’s nephew Grant McRae. While playing in the shade of the reserve’s canteen, far away from the cricket action, a mighty crash on the building’s tin roof suddenly interrupted our game. With a proud giggle and grin Grant immediately explained, ‘that’s just Rushie hitting another six’. As part of a personality trademark, it

wasn’t all about cricket, and Don, apart from his great sporting achievements, regularly took people by surprise with random ‘Rushie moments’. One day, ambling into training at Horsham Tech School nets still in his work clothes after a day at his shoe-store business, Rushie picked up a ball and queued up with other bowlers in the nets. Just as he was about to bowl, he paused, gathered everyone’s attention and with a nod in a sideways direction asked, “what do you reckon he’s thinking about fellahs?” Confusion! “Who, Rushie?” someone finally asked. “That old bloke over there – he would have seen a fair bit in his time,” he responded. Amid puzzled looks, there was eventually the revelation that Don was talking about a lone galah that had perched on a faraway fence, holding its ground as feathers rustled in the breeze. After an awkward pause and a sigh from Rushie, it was back to the cricket where he predictably, and despite being in his work clobber, sent down another unplayable off-spinner. Again, in another Rushie moment, when Don had reached super-veteran status and had limited his fielding duties to slips, he sported a beaming new pair of white sandshoes. The shoes appeared a little too large and upon a query as such, Don revealed he had the shoes in his shop for many years and his old pair had worn out. With a grin he qualified a decision to wear shoes that didn’t fit by saying the bigger they were the more they helped old blokes in the field. Sure enough, a heavy edge from the bat came flying through and Don, instead of catching the ball, poked out one of his giant white sandshoe-laden feet and

kicked it up. The ball hadn’t carried far enough to be a catch but amid laughter and ‘told you so’ exclamations, Don had prevented four runs. People who played cricket with and against Don Rush have their own stories, many of them just as varied and unusual. He attracted adoration from his teammates and friends and frustration and enormous respect from his opponents. He was a rare type of sportsman, let alone cricketer, being more than handy with a set of golf clubs, and we’ll never know where his talent might have taken him as a footballer. Rest in peace Rushie, you were one of a kind.

Campaign call to promote regions A

think-tank group devoted to regional Australian issues has called for a national awareness campaign to promote opportunities of living in regional Australia and to help drive a population shift.

Regional Australia Institute has made the recommendation as part of its new report launched in Melbourne, Regional Population Growth: Are We Ready?. The report is based on the economic consequences of pursuing alternative population scenarios to counter predictions of an ‘Australian megacity future’. It also explores stimulating regional areas. Regional Development Minister Jaclyn Symes launched the report as part of the institute’s national Regions Rising roadshow. Institute joint chief executive Kim Houghton said the report raised serious questions about the type of future Australia had if predicted population growth continued as projected in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth. “The new research has shown that many workers living in our outer city suburbs could be financially better off if they moved to regional Australia,” Dr Houghton said. “Many home owners in our state capitals are paying double the mortgage of their regional city counterparts but have a similar average wage. “Australia’s population is set to grow by up to 19-million by 2056, with Sydney and Melbourne to hit megacity status in the next few decades. Brisbane and Perth will grow to the size of what Sydney and Melbourne are today. “But if we continue with our current geographic patterns of settlement, most of that population will end up in the outer suburbs.” The institute’s other chief executive Liz Ritchie added that rapid urban population growth creat-

ed challenges already clear to residents in outer suburbs of capital cities. “In Melbourne, the average home in the suburbs costs $776,276, while in Victoria’s regional centres, the figure is less than half, at $344,365,” she said. Detailed in the new report, scenario modelling found that under a business-as-usual scenario, commute distances in Melbourne would increase by about 60 percent. “Under the alternative distributed population scenario, where population growth is shared more evenly between outer suburbs and regional centres, commute distances for Melbourne would rise by 40 percent.” Bendigo and Adelaide Bank director and key community-bank figure David Matthews of Rupanyup also spoke at the Melbourne launch. He said with job opportunities growing in regional Australia, there was more reason than ever for people living in large cities to consider a change in lifestyle. “Regional Australia has so much to offer, be it more affordable housing, a quicker commute to work and a safe welcoming environment to share with your family,” he said. “With an intelligent and sustainable population strategy, Australians, no matter where they live, can continue to enjoy the lifestyle that we’re most famous for around the world.” The institute has also unveiled its latest tool, ‘MOVE’, which provides potential home owners a way to find out which areas in Australia gave them the best chance of paying off their mortgage faster. “This new research really poses a significant question to families in the future – will you be financially better off setting up a life in regional Australia? We know the answer could be yes,” Ms Ritchie said.

Extreme weather prompts message E

xtreme weather this winter has led to Powercor calling for Wimmera communities to ensure they prepare for the risk of power outages.

The electricity distribution company reported that from June 1 to July 23, the first half of winter, weather forecasters had issued 191 severe weather warnings. One circumstance had resulted in power outages for communities across Victoria. Powercor warned that while most

people associate summer with power outages, the winter experience this year had proven they could happen at any time. Powercor’s Head of Network Control and Operations George Aspros recommended people be prepared to be resilient to the risk of power outages at any time. “Powercor is one of the country’s most reliable electricity distribution companies but we cannot control the weather,” he said. “While we have about 1000 people in crews in 14 depots across Victoria

who respond quickly to these events and in all conditions, we encourage customers to be prepared for a loss of electricity.” Mr Aspros said in extreme weather, people who lost power would cope and recover better if they had: • Charged their phones and laptop computers to ensure they can still communicate with friends and family and get information about service updates. • Checked that any available alternative energy sources such as electricity generators are fuelled and operational.

Elmhurst project Work on a $350,000 Elmhurst Hall refurbishment project is scheduled to start in October. The Elmhurst Hall upgrade is a key infrastructure project outlined in Ararat Rural City Council’s 2019-2020 budget. Mayor Peter Beales said the council was providing all money for the project. “The council – along with the community – believes it is vital to invest in our local facilities because they are often right at the centre of our smaller townships,” he said. “The Elmhurst Hall redevelopment will bring the facility up to building and accessibility standards, providing a much-needed revamp and ensure the hall is functional for many years into the future.” The hall refurbishment will include a fully accessible ramp to main front doors and new toilets including an all-abilities facility, baby change room and shower.

• Withdrawn some cash to pay for food or other supplies given that ATMs and EFTPOS can be affected by electricity outages. • Backed up computer files and records to a storage device or a secure location to assist with business continuity. • Made sure barbeque gas cylinders were full for cooking or boiling water. He said people, in any conditions should stay well clear of fallen powerlines and report them immediately to Powercor on 13 24 12. Mr Aspros added anyone relying on

life-support or medical help in case of a power outage should ensure they have contingency plans. Powercor distributes electricity to more than 1.7-million Victorians across the western suburbs of Melbourne and through central and western Victoria to South Australian and New South Wales borders. It provides electricity via a network comprising more than 85,000 kilometres of wires supported by more than 570,000 poles and other infrastructure.

A new venture Horsham’s Al Miller and Jude Hatcher are set to embark on a new venture under the J & A Fencing name. The couple have officially taken ownership of the Wimmera business from Andrea and Bill Jorgenson, who owned J & A Fencing for about 15 years before they were approached for sale. Al and Jude said they had sales and fencing contracting experience, under Al’s five-year small fencing business, to offer customer’s high-level knowledge and service. They said their underNEW OWNERS: Al Miller and Jude Hatcher have taken over J & A Fencing in Horsham. standing of the product Picture: PAUL CARRACHER alongside ‘dedicated staff’

would help them fulfil a vision of continuing to grow J & A Fencing’s success. “Andrea and Bill have created an amazing reputation for J & A Fencing in the Wimmera,” Jude said. “We’re excited to continue to grow the business as a one-stop fencing store. “We will continue to offer all ongoing and new customers the high level of customer service and quality product that they have come to know and love.” Andrea and Bill Jorgenson said they would continue to own and operate J & A Shooting Supplies.

Parks to step up patrols A

threat to native animals has led to Parks Victoria stepping up officer patrols to counter illegal tree felling and removal in parks and reserves in parts of the state.

The program has been in place during the past month based several cases of illegal activities. Of particular concern is the cutting down and removal from national parks of significant hollow trees, which provide important habitat for mammals, reptiles, birds and invertebrates. Since July, Parks Victoria’s Operation Crookwell has targeted people suspected of cutting down trees to supply buyers with firewood. Earlier this month Parks Victoria authorised officers and Victoria Police intercepted a man in possession of more than two cubic metres of wood they allege was taken from Chiltern-Mount Pilot National Park. Authorities confiscated the man’s vehicle, three chainsaws and the wood and plan to charge the man with several offences including cutting and taking firewood in a national park, driving off road and destroying wildlife habitat. They also plan to charge at least six other people with various offences as part of the operation, seizing a further three motor vehicles, six chainsaws and seven cubic metres of wood. The Wimmera, Mallee and Gram-

pians fringe are home to many national and state parks. Parks Victoria enforcement operations spokesman Chris Mercier stressed it was illegal for people to fell trees or collect firewood in a national park. “We take a zero-tolerance approach to those breaking firewood collection laws and anyone caught will be prosecuted,” he said. “If you observe anyone causing damage to park habitat, removing wood or have information about environmental offences, please contact Parks Victoria on 13 1963. All information will be treated confidentially.” Parks Victoria science and management acting manager John Wright said tree hollows provided precious habitat for hundreds of species. “Creatures like the squirrel glider, brush-tailed phascogale, regent parrot, red-tailed black cockatoo and the tree goanna all depend on hollows for their survival,” he said. “It can take centuries for nature to create the hollows that so many of our unique and threatened wildlife rely on. Destroying these precious resources through selfish and reckless behaviour is a tragedy.” People can only gather firewood from designated collection areas during permitted seasons. Details of where people and when people can collect firewood on public land is available at www.delwp. vic.gov.au/parks-forests-and-crownland/firewood.

Pharmacies unite for wound service Two Wimmera pharmacies have teamed up to ensure the Horsham community has access to qualified wound-care treatment outside of hospitals and medical clinics. Horsham Priceline Pharmacy and TerryWhite Chemmart Horsham Compounding jointly paid for pharmacist Michaela Del Castillo to complete two years of study in specialist wound care at Monash University. Mrs Del Castillo, who works for both pharmacies, is now qualified to assess wounds with incomplete healing from prescribed treatment. Horsham Priceline Pharmacy owner Cobie McQueen said Mrs Del Castillo’s graduate certificate would be invaluable to the community. “I’m not aware of any other pharmacist in the Wimmera with such a

qualification, so it puts Michaela in a very important position,” she said. “Her knowledge of wound care means people won’t have to queue in a hospital emergency room or make a doctor’s appointment just to get their wound treated. “It’s going to take the load from these services.” Mrs Del Castillo said she was qualified to help patients who had been suffering from non-healing wounds. “I can assess the wound, check what medications the patient is taking and then redress the wound or recommend the best bandage and dressing for their particular situation,” she said. “I can then recommend the best medication for that particular situation.

“Since completing my studies I have already applied my knowledge, helping several clients with their wounds and I received plenty of positive feedback for my help.” Ms McQueen said Mrs Del Castillo’s position at both pharmacies influenced their bipartisan support decision. “Michaela works at TerryWhite Chemmart every Monday and Tuesday and at Priceline on Thursdays and Fridays,” she said. “It made sense to share the costs so we could share the rewards for our customers. “The real benefit is that it will make wound-care treatment so much easier for all our customers because they won’t have to line up at emergency rooms or medical clinics.”

The Storm has reached the finals every season since crossing from the now defunct Mallee league in 2015 but is yet to play in a grand final despite finishing in the top three on two occasions. This season the team’s form is as hard to read as ever. The Storm won four of its first five games before slumping to five losses from its next seven. The team was in danger of sliding out of finals contention before a late-season revival shored up another post-season berth. Coach Daniel Batson said the club was determined to capitalise on its string of finals appearances with a longawaited grand final. “It looks like a pretty even comp from second down to sixth,” he said. “We’ve beaten a couple of the teams above us, so I think it’s a fairly open race for a spot in the grand final. “I think it’s starting to get to the point where we need to make a bit of a stand and push further up, because we’ve finished second and third in the past few years and still haven’t made it to a grand final.

HDFNL Finals make some waves

Jeparit-Rainbow Storm

HORSHAM 5381 5000

“There’s definitely a bit of angst around the club about us putting ourselves in a reasonable position and then not being able to deliver in the finals.” Jeparit-Rainbow’s results this season have often been confounding, with a fivepoint loss to eighth-placed Rupanyup balanced by the fact the Storm is the only team to come within five goals of raging premiership favourite Harrow-Balmoral. Last season the Storm was the only team to defeat the premiership Roos. Despite a 118-point thrashing by Harrow-Balmoral in the last round of the season, Batson said his charges remained capable of competing with the best. “All the way down to Rupanyup, any team can be competitive with the top teams,” he said. “I think we’re one of the few teams that has restricted Harrow-Balmoral from scoring, and then we feel we can score a bit the other way too. “We give ourselves a chance most weeks regardless of who we play because we are a pretty good team defence.” Anchoring that defence is Simon Clugston, a man Batson said the Storm has ‘built around’ in the backline. Clugston was kept to only five games through injury last year but has played every game this season and helped solidify a backline that lost Adam Schulz, Luke Werner and Tom Clugston to the Wimmera Football League.

Another Clugston brother, Heath, has also played down back, with Ben Marra rotating through. Batson rucks to a tough midfield unit that includes Brad Hunter, Shane Maslin, Jakob Cocks, Jake Parry and Tyler Edelsten. Cocks, Hunter and Maslin have all shown an ability to punish opposition teams on the scoreboard, but it remains key forward Peter Weir who will do the heavy lifting. Weir has an outstanding 64 goals to his name in 2019 and will be the Storm’s primary avenue to goal, but another intriguing option, should he play, is Ben Warren. An assistant coach at Sturt in the SANFL, Warren has booted a staggering 40 goals in just five games this season. If he plays, he could single-handedly swing the result of a game. But regardless of Warren’s availability, Batson said he was confident of the Storm’s chances. “We love having him in the team,” he said “He gives us another dimension up forward and another outstanding player in the team, but at the same time, we’ve had some great results against other teams without him in the side. “It’s great to have him, but we still think we can make some waves even if he doesn’t end up out on the park for us.”

Jakob Cocks Only a year removed from under-17 competition, Cocks is already a fixture in the Storm’s senior side. He was the team’s sole interleague representative this season and is a classy ball user on the outside.

Brad Hunter Has been a standout in the middle for the Storm all year. Arguably the team’s most consistent player, Hunter has played every game and has been among the best players nearly every week.

Simon Clugston The key defender returned from injury this year and has been a welcome addition to a backline that lost some experienced players during the summer. The Storm’s typically stingy defence has not missed a beat, and Clugston has been a big reason why.

Peter Weir Has exploded in 2019 with 64 goals and was leading the league for much of the year before being overtaken by Natimuk United’s Jaydon Stiles in the final round. This came after Weir kicked only 24 and 28 in the past two seasons respectively. The captain is capable of putting on a one-man show in the forward line, with seven hauls of five or more goals. His best game came against Noradjuha-Quantong early in the season when the key forward booted 10 for the day.

For all of your Auto Electrical Repairs Good luck to all C.K.S. Swifts teams for 2019!

Their mission is to change that during the coming weeks. The Baggies were bundled out in the first week of the finals by Edenhope-Apsley last season but have rebounded this year to finish fifth on the ladder. One of the side’s calling cards this year has been a stout team defence, conceding just 69 points a contest. Co-coach Scott Carey said recruit Todd Matthews – lured to the club after years playing for the Wimmera Football League’s Stawell Warriors – had helped boost the Baggies’ backline. “He has been a great inclusion this season,” Carey said. “He’s been a bit of a general down back and given us a bit of a calming influence under pressure, which is one of the areas we identified from last season that we need to improve on.” The gains made in the backline have helped offset the loss of forward Andrew Cameron, who departed for Great Western in the Mininera league before the start of the year. But the Baggies’ forward line is far from bereft, with former coach Ben Martin spearheading the attack. Martin has slotted 33 from his 12 games this season, including multiple bags of five and six. Alongside Martin is the talented Zach Salmi, also 33 goals, while hard-running midfielders such as Carey and Ryan Folkes have also pushed forward to hit the scoreboard.

HDFNL Finals a finals mission

Swifts Baggies

HORSHAM 5381 5000

The team’s midfield depth took a big hit with the departure of dual best and fairest Ben Taylor, but the Baggies brought in Zach Salmi’s younger brother Jakob – a former junior player for the club – to help cover. Despite still being in his teens, the younger Salmi has slotted right into the Baggies’ line-up and regularly features among the team’s best players. Premiership ruckman Brett Hargreaves is another big inclusion, forming a potent ruck-forward tandem with Matt Healy. Carey said despite finishing with a respectable 10-6 record, the Baggies were yet to produce their best football consistently in 2019. Despite having a few sore bodies, Carey said the team felt refreshed after a round 16 bye and was ready to attack the finals head on. He said if the team could find its best form in the coming weeks, it could make opponents extremely nervous. “We’re excited with what the finals could hold for us,” he said. “This season we feel like we haven’t really hit our straps just yet, but have had some pretty good performances throughout the year to put us in a position where we’re playing finals. “We feel like we have a really decent chance to go deep into September. “We’ve been able to get better than we were last season; whether or not that’s enough, we’ll wait and see. “That’s why football is so exciting to play – you never know what could happen.”

Players to watch Ryan Folkes Instantly recognisable for his dreadlocks and tattoos, Folkes has become something of a cult figure in the league. The 23-year-old is enjoying a breakout season, providing plenty of run through the midfield for the Baggies and hitting the scoreboard more often than in years past.

Matt Healy One half of what coach Scott Carey refers to as his ‘twin towers’, the big-bodied Healy showed his versatility during this season’s interleague game. Playing at full forward and in the ruck, Healy kicked three goals and was among the Horsham District’s best players.

Brett Hargreaves A premiership ruckman for the Baggies in 2014, Hargreaves has returned to the club with great effect this season. Hargreaves forms the other half of Swifts’ ‘twin towers’ and, like Healy, can push forward when required. The two have combined for 14 majors this season and give the fleet-footed Baggies some height and brawn.

Todd Matthews A long-time member of the Stawell Warriors, Matthews crossed over to the Baggies this season and has made an immediate impact. He has been a steadying influence for Swifts’ backline this year, helping the team’s defence improve from conceding an already stellar 71 points a game in 2018 to 69 a game this year.

While the club has been competitive for the most part, it has not seen post-season action since a 2011 elimination final loss to Swifts. So, when coach Gareth Hose took over at the start of the 2018 season, the mandate from club president Tim Kelly and his committee was clear – develop the youth. This season the club’s plans have come to fruition. A rising tide of young talent has lifted the Bombers despite a tough run of injuries in 2019. Wade Francis, Josh Freeman, Zane Batson, Josiah Mock, Darcy Hogan and Jye Walter have all earned regular spots in the senior team after graduating from the club’s under-17 ranks in the past two seasons, while Zach Kelly and Riley Dunlop have played both senior and under-17 football this year. Hose said the emergence of so much young talent had driven a strong finish to the season after an up-and-down start. “In the second half of the year I’ve been noticing a lot more consistency in the way we play and how we’re going about it,” he said. “The boys have really picked up the way that we set up on the field and the way that we want to move the footy. “There has been a lot spoken about how we are a young side, but a lot of those young guys this year are getting up to that 20-to-50-game mark with their senior footy. “They’ve been able to develop a lot more confidence in their ability against good opposition, so they take the game on a little bit more.” Hose said injuries to some established senior players

HDFNL Finals youth lifts club HORSHAM 5381 5000

had helped give the club’s emerging youth more exposure. With several stars – including Nathan Byrne, Jordan Huff and Shane Oakley – rejoining the team in recent weeks, the Bombers are set to benefit. Huff and Oakley should, alongside Cam Bruce, stretch opposition backlines thin, with Jye Walter also chiming in and captain Dustin Cross showcasing an ability to hit the scoreboard from the midfield. The Bombers are the second highest scoring team in the league this year behind reigning premier HarrowBalmoral, but have also conceded more points than any other finals side. Young ruckman Jack Vague will have plenty of responsibility on his shoulders as he aims to give the side’s veteran-laden midfield – featuring the likes of Byrne, Cross, Jason Kerr and Tom Cooper – first use of the ball. Noradjuha-Quantong has won five of its past six matches to storm into the finals, and Hose said everyone at the club was thoroughly enjoying the experience. “It’s only been a couple of years that I’ve been at the club, but a few people have been saying it’s been eight years since our senior team has been in the finals,” he said. “There’s an excitement and a positive feeling about the place. “The diehard supporters are rapt that the senior team – and us being such a young team – are going to get the opportunity to taste a bit of finals footy. When I took over, we said we wanted to build each year. We had a goal at the start of the year that our next progression would hopefully be to play finals footy. “We’ve taken big steps and I’m really pleased.”

Noradjuha-Quantong Bombers

Players to watch Dustin Cross

The captain of the Bombers has had an excellent season, kicking nearly a goal a game and giving the team some grunt and drive in the midfield. He is extremely consistent and has not missed a game in the past two seasons.

Jack Vague

Dustin Cross

Has emerged as one of the better ruckmen in the league and, at 22, still has plenty of development and improvement ahead of him. He helps give the Bombers’ dangerous onball division first use at stoppages.

Nathan Byrne

Has been restricted to only nine games through injury so far this season but is a potential matchwinner when healthy. He showed why the Bombers were so keen to lure him back after several seasons at Wimmera league team Horsham Saints with a string of best-on-ground performances early in the round. A big in before the finals.

Shane Oakley

Along with Jordan Huff, forms a potent key forward duo for the Bombers. He is yet to be kept goalless in 2019 and has five bags of five or more goals. His season total of 43 goals is his best return for the Bombers since he booted 57 during the 2012 season.

With the Rams on the cusp of their third straight finals berth after a 20-year dry spell extending back to 1997, coach Sam Anson admits complacency has been one of the team’s biggest enemies in 2019. Keen to atone for back-to-back elimination final defeats in 2017 and 2018, the Rams started this season superbly, winning their first five games to stand shoulder to shoulder with reigning premier Harrow-Balmoral at the top of the ladder. But the team lost three of its next four games and, by the end of round 10, dreams of a top-three finish suddenly seemed remote. “We got a bit cocky, I think,” Anson said. “We were in unknown territory a bit because our side hasn’t been in that position for forever – for a very long time.” To the Rams’ credit they refocused and reeled off wins in six of their next seven games, keeping themselves squarely among the top handful of sides in the league. Anson said a refocused attitude and the perseverance of his charges despite a spate of injuries had helped put the Rams back in a position to challenge for their first finals win in more than two decades. “I think we stopped getting complacent. The boys are hungry after last year when we bombed out in the first final, and I think that sticks in the back of everyone’s head,” he said. Anson said the next challenge was getting an injured list back to full strength for a finals tilt. “I think the biggest lesson we learned from last year is to not go into a final with injured players,” he said.

Wishing all Natimuk United teams playing in the 2019 finals an injury-free and successful series!

HDFNL Finals finals football

Natimuk United

HORSHAM 5381 5000

“Unfortunately, we’ve had a minimum of five changes per game, so we’ve kept up the same reputation as last year. “As long as we can get a consistent team in finals, that’s the main thing. Among the key contributors the Rams are hoping to regain for their finals campaign are talented young players Dylan Bates and Zach Smith, while Jack Ford, who has been restricted to just four games through injury, is also a chance to return. The inclusions should add even more potency to a team already stocked with fleet-footed players such as Alex Ridsdale and Jesse Wilkinson. Onballer Callum Cameron, while restricted to nine games through injury, has been a fixture in the team’s best players when healthy and forms a strong tandem with Anson. Up forward Natimuk United’s hopes of kicking a winning score rest largely on the shoulders of high-flying duo Jaydon Stiles and Nathan Koenig – much as they did last year. While both have largely maintained their excellent output from 2018 – kicking 67 and 39 goals respectively – the Rams have missed the contributions of last season’s number-three goal-kicker Kyal Murray, who has been restricted to just five games. The void left by Murray has been filled by the likes of Anson, Mitch Riddell and Max English, each averaging about a goal a game. Down back the team is marshalled by Jono Lovel and Jordan Smith, while the versatile Riddell can provide rebound from half back or play on the ball. While the lengthy injury list has frustrated Anson, he said his team could achieve the finals victory it desperately craves by tuning out the noise and sticking to what has made it a success this season. “I think we’ve just got to play our brand of football and worry about us, not what everyone else is doing,” he said. “Hopefully the rest will take care of itself.”

Jaydon Stiles

Players to watch Jaydon Stiles

While his scoring output is down slightly compared to last season, the mercurial key forward proved himself among the league’s goal-kicking elite, beating out Jeparit-Rainbow’s Peter Weir for the league goal-kicking title with a total of 67. After a blistering start to the season that saw him kick 27 goals in his first four games, Stiles’ influence was curtailed slightly, but he closed the year strongly with hauls of six and seven goals, and is yet to be held goalless. He booted three majors in a close elimination final loss to Jeparit-Rainbow last year and will need to kick at least that many again for the Rams to progress in finals.

Nathan Koenig

Completing the forward line double act for Natimuk United is Koenig, who has tallied 39 majors from his 15 games this year. Koenig played a key role in the Horsham District interleague side that beat Loddon Valley by 34 points, kicking two goals and presenting well across half forward. Like Stiles, Koenig has been relatively quiet in recent weeks, but remains a dangerous threat for any opposition defender.

Alex Ridsdale

While the hard-running Ridsdale has not hit the scoreboard as regularly this season as he did in 2018, he still forms a vital component of the Natimuk United midfield. Ridsdale is a former under-17 league best and fairest winner and has parlayed that success into a solid senior career with the Rams. He will need to fire for Natimuk United to go deep into the post-season.

Go Ram and Ewes in the 2019 finals!

For Edenhope-Apsley, a little bit of both has helped put the club in position for more Horsham District league finals success. After the Saints made last season’s preliminary final in coach Chris Oliver’s first year in charge, expectations for 2019 were high. Oliver admitted as much when talking to The Weekly Advertiser before the start of this season, saying the Saints’ goal was to ‘obviously make finals and go deep… and in reality, at least make the grand final’. With such lofty ambitions, some might have expected the Saints to go on a recruiting spree in an effort to compete with the elite teams in the league. Instead the team adopted an ethos of quality over quantity. After losing key contributors Dylan Achison and Sam McClure, the Saints targeted Loxton North’s Ryan Gray and South Gambier forward Carl Slape while also enticing former player George Walker back from Gordon in the Central Highlands league. The moves yielded immediate dividends; Slape and Walker have formed one of the most dangerous goal-kicking

duos in the league, helping the Saints score an average of 99 points a game – second only to HarrowBalmoral. Oliver said fresh faces and some positional changes had revitalised the Saints, but consistency had aided the team just as much. “From the prelim last year, I think we’ve built a lot of belief,” he said. “We have topped up with a couple of extra players, but I think the belief around the boys and the club itself has lifted from where it was last year and got us to where we’re at. “For the most part we’ve stuck to what was working for us last year, but we’ve made some positional changes and found some things that worked a bit better this year. “Overall, I’d say we’re pretty similar, just with a bit more belief and a stronger work ethic.” The continuity of last season’s success has been aided by the strong form of some of the club’s returning players. Oliver himself has long been renowned as one of the league’s premier defenders across half back, helping cut off opposition kicks and pinpoint teammates on the rebound. Matt Butler, who was among the best players in the District league’s interleague victory against Loddon

Valley, has also been solid in defence for the Saints, and can move forward to great effect on occasions. The team’s onball division is headed by interleague ruckman and 2018 best and fairest Jak Ryan, while Lachie Middleton has kept up his reputation as one of the league’s hardestworking midfielders and Damian Monaghan has again been solid. The forward line, far from being a two-man show, is rounded out by experienced players such as Cam Domaschenz and young up-andcomers like Billy Finnigan. While reigning premier HarrowBalmoral has been a clear-cut premiership favourite all season, Oliver said the Saints were focused on narrowing the gap between themselves and the Roos. He said his charges would try to apply lessons learned from a 91point loss to the Roos in round 15. “We’ve definitely learned how potent they are. They’re a very good side and a very fit side,” he said. “As for how to beat them, we’ll try a few things, but they’re definitely top of the ladder for a reason. “We’re going to have our work cut out, but hopefully we can give it a red-hot shake.”

Players to watch Lachie Middleton One of the favourites to take out the Saints’ best and fairest this season, Middleton has impressed coach Chris Oliver. Oliver labelled Middleton a ‘standout’ and praised his tireless work as an onballer. While Middleton has never been a big goal kicker, with plenty of firepower in the Saints’ forward line this season he hasn’t needed to be.

George Walker

A former junior star for the club who kicked 57 goals for the Saints’ senior side in 2017. While Walker has not achieved quite the same goal-kicking output this year, he has formed a crucial part of a balanced forward line. Ultra-consistent, Walker has only been held goalless once and has booted between two and five goals in his other 11 matches.

Carl Slape

The other half of the Saints’ deadly forward duo, Slape finished the season fourth on the goal-kicking table with 43 majors to his name. His standout performance came in round one when he booted 11 goals against Pimpinio. Slape hit a quiet patch in the middle of the year but found his touch again with a six-goal haul against Rupanyup in round 16.

Matt Butler

Jak Ryan and Chris Oliver

Butler has been one of the unsung heroes of the Saints’ season. Playing most of the year in the backline, he was swung forward late in the season and kicked four goals in consecutive games against Kalkee and Harrow-Balmoral. Butler showed his worth during Horsham District’s interleague game against Loddon Valley, named among the side’s best players.

Nick Pekin

This year the Roos have a golden opportunity to accomplish that feat. With 16 home and away games done and dusted Harrow-Balmoral’s premiership defence has been, to this point, flawless. Last season the Roos captured their first flag in more than a decade by capping an impressive 15-1 season with a grand final win against Kalkee. This year they have been even better. Bucking a leaguewide trend that has seen scoring decrease in each of the past three seasons – from an average of more than 93 points a game in 2016 to fewer than 79 this season – Harrow-Balmoral has increased its scoring average by more than 11 points a game. Coach Nick Pekin said his team’s performance was a testament to the commitment of the players. A revamped forward line featuring former AFL player Michael Close in his return from concussion issues has also helped. “It’s been unreal having him come into the side – he’s been very good,” Pekin said. “He got the all clear halfway through the year and he’s only going to get better and better working alongside his brother Simon. James Staude has come back at the end of the year after a broken little finger, so that’ll add another two or three goals.” Pekin also credited an intense training regime – including extra time spent working on goalkicking – for helping his side improve.

“We’ve done extra Wednesday training sessions leading up to the finals to get ourselves cherry ripe,” he said. “It goes a long way towards winning games of footy at the end of the year. “I think our firepower up forward is really pivotal and we train specifically for goal-kicking – that’s a fairly big element to winning games of footy. “We’ve been rewarded for it, because our accuracy has been not too bad this year.” Pekin said an intense desire to win consecutive flags for the first time in the district league was the driving force behind everything. “Back to back premierships is a really big goal,” he said. “Douglas-Harrow-Miga Lake won a flag 40 years ago and then there was the 1999 flag, so there is a little bit of extra incentive to keep those reunions going. “You get to celebrate a beer with the club 10 years down the track with those reunions, so it’s something that is a bit special. “One of my goals this year is for us to win premierships in the seniors, reserves and under-17s.” Pekin said the team had adopted a finals mindset before its round 15 clash with second-placed Edenhope-Apsley a month ago and was determined to keep bettering itself. “We identified Edenhope-Apsley as being one of the biggest games for the year, so we’ve had that pencilled in for a while and our finals campaign started then,” he said. “We look to keep improving on the small things, the one percenters, going forward. “Our mindset has always been that we want to achieve the ultimate success at the end of the year. “The mentality within the group has been really good and if we can just keep fine tuning those little things, I’m sure we can do it.”

Players to watch Cody Deutscher

In the midst of a stellar season, Deutscher is one of the big improvers at the Roos and is coach Nick Pekin’s early tip for the club best and fairest. He has been named among the team’s best players in all but one game and has more than doubled his goal-kicking output from last season, booting 32 majors. Highlights include a five-goal haul against Noradjuha-Quantong and seven against Laharum.

Michael Phelan

Phelan has been Harrow-Balmoral’s rock down back for the past two years after transitioning from a ruck-forward role. As team captain he is counted on by coach Nick Pekin to show leadership and help organise the Roos’ league-best defence. Will get the job on the opposition’s best key forward.

Eric Guthrie

Guthrie’s reputation as one of the league’s elite players has only grown this season. Whether playing on the ball or in the forward line, Guthrie is a threat any opposition needs to be aware of at all times. His slippery, skilful style of play saw him win a Worksafe Community Championships medal as best on ground in Horsham District’s interleague victory.

Cody Deutscher

Simon Close

The complete package as a forward and, as with Phelan in the back line, serves as a general for the Roos’ potent forward setup. Close has kicked a team-high 62 goals this season and is rarely beaten. With brother Michael and fellow key forward James Staude in tow, he is set to give opposing backlines nightmares this finals series.

t could be a case of déjà vu all over again for Kalkee in 2019.

A year after finishing sixth on the ladder with nine wins and seven losses and booking an elimination final meeting with Harrow-Balmoral, the Kees have finished sixth with eight wins and eight losses and will play an elimination final against Harrow-Balmoral. As the team’s win-loss record suggests, it has been an up and down season for Kalkee. It started as last season ended – with a loss to the Roos. The team rebounded to beat Rupanyup convincingly the next week but was outpointed by a single goal against EdenhopeApsley and then crunched by Laharum. With three wins from their first four games, the Kees’ chances of playing finals appeared slim, but the team responded when the pressure was on. Wins against finals-bound Swifts and another tough opponent in Jeparit-Rainbow got the team back on track. In the second half of the season it has been a different story – the

Kees have been good, but not good enough to overcome the top three sides. They will need to do so if they are to extend their season beyond Saturday. While Harrow-Balmoral always presents a daunting challenge, one of the biggest factors aiding Kalkee will be its consistency. The team has clearly adopted an, ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’, mentality when it comes to its line-up, sending an unchanged team on court most weeks. Hayley Thomas and Jenna Bywaters spearhead the attack at goal shooter and goal attack respectively. Bywaters has enjoyed an outstanding year and has been one of the team’s leading lights, with her athleticism, high motor and accurate shooting giving opposition defenders plenty of headaches. The centre position is filled by another superb athlete – captain Millie McRae. Beside McRae are Rianna Kuhne and Grace Lutze at the offensive and defensive wing positions respectively. In an encouraging sign, the duo was named best on court

for the Kees in their round 17 win against Jeparit-Rainbow, and should provide a fascinating match-up against HarrowBalmoral’s vaunted midcourt on Saturday. Clair McDonald’s anticipation and vertical jump makes her an intercept threat at goal defence, w h i l e Lauren Hotker has had a solid season at goal keeper. But while the team’s lineup has been remarkably consistent this season, it is vastly different from last year’s team. Bywaters, McRae and McDonald were the only players who took the court in last year’s 22-goal elimination final loss to Harrow-Balmoral. So, if the Kees are to avoid an unpleasant feeling of déjà vu in this year’s finals, it will be the team’s fresh faces playing a big role.

HDFNL Finals Saints positive

Edenhope-Apsley Saints

HORSHAM 5381 5000

BY LOTTE REITER

s there ever a greater incentive for a sporting side than retribution?

While some are chasing a premiership reprise, others in the 2019 Horsham District netball season are fuelled by last year’s wounds. Edenhope-Apsley’s A Grade netballers bowed out on the cusp of a grand-final play off last year, losing their grip against Laharum mid-game and a chance to contend for that elusive premiership flag. The Saints ultimately went down by 12 goals and it’s a result likely to be fresh in the minds of the west-Wimmera girls as they come off the back of a round 18 loss to the Demons at the weekend. The match brings the outfit’s tally to nine wins and seven loses, securing them fifth place on the 2019 ladder. For the Saints, it is a welcomed claim to finals once more, and the outfit’s charges will no doubt be buzzing as they prepare to take another crack at glory. Edenhope-Apsley in its season-starters wrapped together three straight victories against

Pimpinio, Taylors Lake and Kalkee. However, moving forward it has been a tumultuous ride, with the team relying on travelling players to fill gaps as a result of injury, pregnancy or loss of key players. Co-coach Sarah Domaschenz said she was carrying injuries and had missed a few games. “We had Cynthia Watt and Krystal Schapel leave early in the year. We’ve been a little unsettled,” she said. “We haven’t been able to play with a full side for a lot of games. We probably haven’t trained together at all this season. “Ellie Thomas lives in Loxton so it’s a three-to-four-hour drive to get here. But we might have a couple of group training sessions before we go to finals.” Despite some season difficulties, the Saints have still made a point in proving their capabilities on court. Domaschenz and a young Dulcie Shirrefs are versatile players, offering the Saints plenty of options. Co-coach Ellie Thomas, who returned to the club after a decade-long break this year, has also been a strong asset and will

be a player to watch come gameday. Slotting into goal-attack, Thomas has paired well with shooter Georgia Lowe recently to put the pressure on their competitors’ defence and feed the Saints’ tally, particularly in close-call games. “Recruiting Ellie has been a massive plus, she brings a lot to our club,” Domaschenz said. “Ellie and Georgia are beautiful goalies and add height to the ring, which is probably something we didn’t have last year. “Our defensive line is really working well, and we have the speed in wing attack with Chloe Tuffnell.” As the Saints approach the finals series once more, Thomas said a positive mindset from her charges would be the key to taking them over the line. “There’s definitely the desire to go one step further,” she said. “I think we’ve been playing some really good netball this year. If we can maintain a positive mindset, I think we can make it there.”

Courtney Morrow

After failing to field a team in 2016, the Baggies have been slowly climbing the rungs of the A Grade competition, marginally missing out on one of three top positions available last year. This season, Swifts have chalked nine wins from 16 games, leaving them fourth on the ladder and on equal footing with fifth-rung Edenhope-Apsley. Coach and midcourter Courtney Morrow said there was good energy around camp, with players eager to continue their side’s trajectory. “It’s an exciting time again to get into finals, everyone is feeling pretty good,” she said. “Last season, it wasn’t our best game going into finals. A lot of the girls hadn’t played finals for many years. But this year we hope to go that one step further.” Morrow admitted the 2019 season had dished out its share of ‘ups and downs’ for her charges, but their speed and versatility had her confident in their strength come game day. “A major hurdle at the start of the season was commitment with training, we had a lot of girls in and out. But the last couple of

weeks we’ve maintained our consistency, which has been really good,” she said. “We’ve had a few girls go out with ankles, which are still a little bit tender. But we’ve got speed that covers the length of the court, and our defence has been playing amazing as well this season.” While the Baggies lost some strength in Julia Coates this year, Briana Close also departing A Grade for Swifts’ B Grade team, they’ve made good use of new addition Sarah Morris. “Sarah can go all over the court. If we have a player who’s not having a good day, she can easily fill in,” Morrow said. “And coming to the end of the season, Erin Freeland is one to watch. “She started off a bit slow at the start, but she’s really been able to pick up her netball game. We lost her in finals to a broken hand last year, so it will be really good to see her play finals this year.” Trusty shooters Jade Ralph and Michaela Armer will boost the Baggies’ capabilities in the ring, while midcourt talents Kristy Dodds and Heidi Lang will work well to feed the ball into their circle. “We’ll go in and play our game, play how we know, and try not to let the stress or pressure get to us,” Morrow said.

HDFNL Finals

Fit Roos a threat BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

arrow-Balmoral has built a reputation as a consistent premiership threat since joining the Horsham District netball competition more than 20 years ago.

The Roos, along with a handful of other teams, helped end the hegemony of Kalkee and are always a threat to win the premiership. This season has been no different. While the Roos have endured a punishing run of injuries this season, they have emerged with a 13-3 record and another topthree berth. The spot seems to be an accurate reflection of the season so far – Harrow-Balmoral has beaten every team below it on the ladder but lost three encounters with top-two teams Natimuk United and Laharum. Despite lagging slightly behind the competition pacesetters, coach Ebonie Salter is confident that with a bit of luck and a fully fit side, her team is more than capable of winning another grand final. “It’d be nice to have a full team for starters,” she said. “We’ve had a lot of injuries

in and out from the start. Amy Lewis missed the first part of the season, Kate Vickery did her ankle and then came back for a few games and did her calf, and Sammy Crick injured her finger a few weeks ago. “If we can get everyone fit, we think we could really make it deep into finals, but we’re focusing on going week by week at the moment because we have to.” The prospect of a full-strength Roos side is a daunting one for the rest of the competition. When healthy, Vickery forms a formidable tandem with Salter in the key defensive posts. Salter, who coached the interleague netball side, is renowned for her ability to read the play and intercept opposition passes. Rebecca Francis adds plenty of drive through the midcourt and is an exciting player to watch. She is supported by players such as Crick and Janelle Knight. Lewis will be the focal point for the Roos in the goal ring if healthy, while Brittany Keller has been outstanding at goal attack. Salter said her team was ready to compete against the league’s best. “We feel like we really pushed

Nati – we only lost by three and we feel like we didn’t play very well that game,” she said. “Only playing them once means it’s probably harder to get an indication of where you’re at against them. Both times we played Laharum they played really well, and we haven’t performed well for various reasons. We hope we can get another crack at them. “We’ve beaten the lower teams quite comfortably at times, so we know what we do works, we just need to keep persevering.” Club netball director Kylie McClure said with all junior and senior netball teams qualifying for finals, everybody was excited. “I think all our girls can certainly put up a strong performance in the finals without a doubt,” she said. “It’s definitely a good feeling and a good vibe at the moment. “Having everyone involved is really exciting for the club.”

Since 2015 the Demons have reached two grand finals, a preliminary final and a semi-final, but each season has ultimately ended in defeat. Last year appeared to be the team’s best chance after an undefeated home and away season, but the team was pipped twice by Natimuk United – first by a goal in a semi-final and then by five goals on grand final day. This year the Demons believe they finally have the right mix to usurp the two-time reigning premiers and break through to claim a premiership. Co-coach Caitlin Story said her players were eager for another crack at the Ewes. “The margin always seems to be under five goals in the games we’ve played against them in the past few years,” she said. “For us, I think a lot of it comes down to patience. “They’ve obviously played together for a long time and they’ve gelled really well as a team and they’re quite a lot older and more experienced than we are. “I think with the younger heads we sometimes panic in those situations, so we’ve been trying to work on staying calm and in the moment, and hopefully it transfers to the court.” Although the Demons are a younger side than the Ewes, they are far from lacking experience. Story has been arguably the most formidable goal shooter in the competition for the past five years, while the athletic Maddie Iredell is a

perfect foil at goal attack. Together, the duo has helped the Demons become the highest scoring team in the league. Laharum is far from a one-dimensional side, however. The Demons also boast the league’s best defence, with goal keeper Rebecca McIntyre and goal defence Ema Iredell making life hard for opposing goalies each week. Erin Mellington and newcomer Zandria Malone have helped solidify a strong midcourt. Story said Malone’s inclusion could help deliver a premiership for the Demons. “I think we’ve got a lot of speed in our midcourt after picking up Zandria from Warrack,” she said. “It’s a bit different to what we had last year. “Nati has been the benchmark for a long time and the way they play together is the way we want to play. “They have a lot of experienced players, but we’re younger and I think speed might be one of our strengths against them.” Story said her players were cherry ripe ahead of the finals, describing the team as ‘the fittest we’ve been for the past two years’. With only two goals separating Laharum and Natimuk United in their only meeting this year, a finals rematch has been hotly anticipated. Story said her charges were up to the challenge. “We’re excited and we can’t wait for the finals to start,” she said. “We’ve been there the past three or four years so hopefully by now we’ve learned some sort of lesson we can use.”

HDFNL Finals

HORSHAM 5381 5000

Natimuk United

Three in a row? E

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

ntering the 2019 Horsham District netball finals, Natimuk United has a chance to do what no team other than Kalkee has done since the 1980s – win three straight premierships.

The A Grade premiership might as well have been renamed for Kalkee as between 1986 and 2010 the Kees won a staggering 20 titles, but in the past decade that order has been upended. Noradjuha-Quantong, Harrow-Balmoral and, more recently, Natimuk United and Laharum have emerged as consistent premiership threats. The Bombers won back-to-back pennants in 2011 and 2012 and the Roos repeated the feat in 2013-14. Natimuk United has claimed the past two titles but could truly etch its name in District League lore with a third. It is in a great position to do so after going through the homeand-away season undefeated. The Ewes are loaded with talent, starting with a rock-solid defence anchored by Jo Taylor and Casey Vanstan. The team’s midcourt is also full of experience, with coach Cheryl Sudholz, her sister Michelle Trigg and Danielle Fleay all capable of playing multiple positions. Shannon Couch remains one of the preeminent goal shooters in the competition, with Candice Muszkieta and Alysha Liston rotating through goal attack. Ebony Rintoule has also been given regular senior exposure this season and has added depth. Sudholz said her side was excited to pursue a

third straight premiership – and fourth in five years – but claimed the Ewes would not get ahead of themselves. “There’s a long way to go before we get there,” she said. “The past couple of years when we’ve won the premiership, we’ve just taken it one game at a time. Every year is totally different. “It has been the case previously that when we’ve gotten to the grand final we’ve said, ‘wow, I can’t believe we’re here,’ because we finished fifth or sixth.” Despite several of the team’s key players now being nearer the end of their careers than the start, Sudholz said the Ewes were showing no signs of slowing down. In an ominous sign for the rest of the competition, she said her players were raring to go ahead of yet another finals campaign. “We do have a couple of players with a few little niggles at the moment including my sister, but we’ve been fortunate enough to be able to rest them before finals,” she said. “Me personally, I think we like to play. Some teams like the weeks off, but I prefer that we keep playing and at the end of the season you can go off and have a break and your body can relax. “We’re always doing some kind of fitness or playing tennis or exercising anyway. I prefer the consistency over the rest – I hate byes.”

Drop the top

olkswagen is getting back into the convertible business with the unveiling of a foldingroof version of its T-Roc small crossover.

Due to be unveiled in full at the Frankfurt motor show next month, the T-Roc Cabriolet will create a niche as the first mainstream drop-top small SUV when it hits the roads of Europe just in time for the northern summer next year. Volkswagen Group Australia says it has no current plans to introduce the two-door, front-wheel-drive cabriolet alongside the hard-roofed T-Roc that will debut in showrooms in April next year, but VGA general manager of

corporate communications Paul Pottinger left the door ajar. “It is an attractive vehicle that we’d consider if it became available,” he said. VGA has not had a convertible in its range since it dropped the Golf Cabriolet at the end of the Mark 6 Golf’s production run in 2016. The T-Roc Cabrio sits on the same MQB compact platform as the current Golf, latest T-Roc and a myriad of other models in the VW Group, but it has been drastically re-engineered for open-air driving. Even though it loses the rear doors, the cabrio is longer than the standard T-Roc in both the wheelbase and overall length.

The folding soft-top makes the roof line 51mm lower, at 1522mm, while the overall width is 8mm narrower at 1811mm. The electrically operated roof can be raised or lowered on the move in just nine seconds at up to 30kmh, but the space required to store it contributes to a reduction in boot space from 445 litres to 284L. Rollover protection devices spring up from behind the rear-seat headrests in a fraction of a second if the vehicle tilts beyond a particular point. A reinforced windscreen frame also adds rollover safety, along with reinforcement in the underbody and various panels, including the doors. A major selling point of the cabrio

VW reinvents the cabrio

is the elevated seating positions that VW says will offer great views during top-down cruising. The front seats sit 599mm above the road, while stadium-style rear seats are higher, at 616mm. Two turbo petrol powertrains will be available at launch in Europe – a 1.5-litre three-cylinder producing 85kW of power and 200Nm of torque, and a 2.0-litre four-cylinder that develops 110kW and 250Nm. The smaller engine comes with a six-speed manual gearbox, while the larger unit gets a seven-speed dualclutch automatic transmission. Both of these engines are less powerful than the 140kW four-cylinder unit that will grace the T-Roc 140TSI

hardtop in Australia at launch. The hardtop will also come with 4Motion all-wheel drive – a system apparently missing from the cabrio, at least at launch. Other powertrains might become available for Australian customers after the T-Roc wagon’s midlife upgrade in about 18 months. The cabrio gets its own SIM card so remains permanently connected via an 8.0-inch touchscreen. A 11.5-inch active display can also be optioned for a full digital cockpit. Wheels are 17-inch alloys, but 19-inchers can be had with the optional R-Line package. – Ron Hammerton

Arriving in showrooms in the fourth quarter of this year, the Turbo S EHybrid is $46,400 and $39,100 dearer than the Turbo version of the Cayenne wagon and coupe respectively. For the Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid, Porsche has borrowed the same powertrain from the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid – a plug-in hybrid set up that teams the Turbo’s 404kW 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with a 100kW electric motor that increases power output to a heady 500kW. The Turbo S E-Hybrid’s 500kW outstrips the likes of the Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S, 430kW, Maserati Levante Trofeo, 441kW, Range Rover Sport SVR, 423kW, Lamborghini Urus, 478kW, BMW X5 M, 423kW and Bentley Bentayga W12, 447kW, but falls short of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and its 522kW supercharged 6.2-litre V8. At 900Nm, torque is also up 50Nm over the Panamera and 130Nm over the Cayenne Turbo’s 770Nm, with the Turbo S E-Hybrid’s torque output only matched by the Audi SQ7 and its turbocharged diesel V8.

CHARGE: Porsche Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid pair heads Down Under from $288,000 plus on-road costs. In the Turbo S E-Hybrid, power is channelled to all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission, allowing for a zero-to-100kmh sprint time of 3.8 seconds while on the way to a top speed of 295kmh. The Turbo S E-Hybrid uses a 14.1kWh lithium-ion battery that has a pure-electric range of 40km and allows the Cayenne to travel up to 135kmh on zero-tailpipe-emissions power.

axle differential lock, carbon-ceramic brakes, Power Steering Plus, Sport Chrono package, three-chamber air suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management, PASM, and 21inch alloy wheels with body-coloured wheelarch extensions in the wagon only. Twenty-two-inch RS Spyder Design wheels are standard on the coupe version in Australia and optionally available on the wagon, while rear-

Charging the battery takes 2.4 hours when using a 400-volt connection and 16-amp fuse, while using a 230V10-amp household socket takes six hours. As befitting its status as top-spec model for the range, the Turbo S E-Hybrid scores a number of performance-oriented features, such as Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control, PDCC, active roll stabilisation, Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus, a rear-

axle steering, LED Matrix headlights, a head-up display, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist and Night Vision with thermal imaging camera are optionally available on both. The coupe is further differentiated by its adaptive rear spoiler, two-seat second row and an optionally available carbon-fibre roof. Additional standard equipment in Australian models includes four-zone climate control, rear side airbags, LED headlights, ambient lighting, privacy glass, keyless entry and start, digital radio, panoramic sunroof and a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, USB-C ports, sat-nav with real-time traffic information and Porsche Connect. Standard safety kit extends to cruise control with a speed limiter, pedestrian protection, front and rear park assist with surround-view cameras, and lane-change assist. Through the first seven months of the year, Cayenne sales have seen a significant 80.4 percent lift due to the all-new model arriving in June last year, up to 839 sales from 465. Despite the increase, it sits fourth in the $70,000-plus large-SUV segment, trailing the BMW X5, 1990, Range Rover Sport, 1516, and Lexus RX 1135. – Robbie Wallis

Christian Devotions

The Lion King speaks to us again today…

After Uncle Scar’s evil plot to destroy Simba failed, he was even more desperate to become king and concocts a “flawless” scheme designed to cut Simba’s life off at the pass. Suddenly, Simba finds himself in grave danger, when Scar orchestrates Simba to be caught up in the midst of a rampaging stampede with little hope of escape. Mufasa, Simba’s father roars into action again and saves Simba but as he frantically claws his way to the top of the cliff, Scar, with one push, thrusts Mufasa back into the valley of stampeding animals. From Scar, this was a blatant attack of murder and treachery. From Mufasa, it was an act of heroism, defined by self-sacrifice for the sake of love. Mufasa died so Simba could live. The death of Mufasa, frames for us the significance of life and death, symbolising Jesus giving His life on the cross so that we may live. After the death of Mufasa, jealousy and hatred literally spewed from Scar’s lips as he took control of Pride Rock. He tricked the young and vulnerable Simba yet again, and tortured by guilt, shame and failure Simba leaves Pride Rock. Scar forces the animals of Pride Rock to follow him while teeming down evil upon them day after day. The Savannah is soon destroyed, no food, little water and a tyrannical reign by Scar and the hyenas. Scar represents Satan, relentlessly cruel, self-serving and full of hatred. Unlike God, who is kind and full of mercy, love and forgiveness. We have a choice – today I encourage you, choose LIFE; don’t allow the past to define you.

Final round for hockey teams A

gers will again go into finals as minor premiers and their opponents, Kaniva Cobras, will miss the finals. Like the Hurricanes, the Cobras are capable of some good hockey and will give the Tigers a good workout. If the Hoops lose their game earlier in the day, the result of the final game will determine who finishes second. Fourth-placed Nhill Rangers have earned their first finals appearance in six seasons with impressive hockey in recent weeks and are quite capable of causing an upset if Dimboola Burras do not play at their best. If the Hoops win or draw their game they will finish second, but if the Burras are to snatch second place they need the Hoops to suffer a loss and score a win themselves.

BY SIMON KING

fter the penultimate round of Wimmera Hockey Association’s regular season, teams to contest the finals in all three competitions have been set.

The highlight of the round was a maiden 2019 victory for last-placed under-16 team Dimboola Kangaroos. The Kangaroos finally lived up to their potential and scored a win in their second last game for the season. As teams go into the last round of the regular season, all open-division finalists have been set, so the most interest will be in whether Dimboola Burras can leap over Warrack Hoops into second place on the ladder and earn a valuable second chance in the finals. The Hoops will be the first of these teams to take to the field at Yanac on Saturday when they face off against Horsham Hurricanes. Although this latter team goes into this game on the bottom of the ladder, it still has the incentive of an opportunity to avoid the wooden spoon if it can register a last-round win, and Kaniva Cobras suffer a loss. The Hurricanes have shown promising form at times and have played better than their modest return of one win and two draws suggests. Regardless of the result, Yanac Ti-

Women

The women’s division top four cannot change irrespective of the results on Saturday, but there is still interest in all three games. Both Horsham Jets and Warracknabeal will put away their hockey sticks after this weekend’s game and, although neither can rise into the top four, both will be looking to finish the season on a high. The other two games see match-ups within the top four, with all eager to score a psychological advantage before they potentially meet in the finals. Dimboola Roos take on Nhill Thun-

derbirds and Yanac plays Kaniva, but the only possible change in ladder position would require an unlikely combination of results. For Dimboola to steal top spot, Yanac would have to lose only its second game for the season, and by a substantial margin, and the Roos would need to register a big win.

Analysis

MDFL Finals

Primed for finals action A

BY JONATHAN BOX

fter near-record wins, close games, upsets and massive bags of goals, the finals in Mininera District Football League are finally here.

And it took the last week of homeand-away competition for teams to confirm a final five. After all was said and done, Penshurst emerged as the minor premier, finishing a game and a half on top of the ladder after an eight-goal win over second-placed Lismore-Derrinallum. The final position gave the team a week off in the finals. Reigning premier Wickliffe-Lake Bolac gave itself the best chance of getting an 11th-hour finals berth with a huge 20-goal win over Great Western. However, wins to both Tatyoon and Woorndoo-Mortlake prevented the Magpies’ charge and they finished the year sixth. The finals series opens with a qualifying final between Great Western and Lismore-Derrinallum at Willaura on Saturday. The match represents Great Western’s first attempt at finals since they joined the league. Lismore-Derrinallum, since 2014, has been in finals every year with a return of two premierships from two grand-final appearances.

On the year’s performances, both teams have the talent and skill to win this game. Although Lismore-Derrinallum lost on Saturday to Penshurst, the Demons will be keen to redeem themselves with a win to set up a rematch with the Bombers. The Demons’ long list of talent includes back-to-back Lewis medallist Michael Lockyer, who with his speed, skill and work rate has proven time and again a tough player for opponents. Joining him are players such as Tom Millard, Jack Pitts, Todd Lamont, Beau Ketchen, Tyler Ditloff and Tim Glasson, just to name a few. Great Western kicked only four goals last week but expectations are that the Lions will be ready to play at Willaura on Sunday. The Lions have won 13 games and Saturday’s loss was their first in five weeks after a round-12 21-point loss to the Demons. In the reserves Great Western plays Penshurst, and Moyston-Willaura and Glenthompson-Dunkeld will clash in under-16.5s. A Sunday elimination final at Dunkeld involves a similar match, in that it is between seasoned finals veteran Tatyoon and Woorndoo-Mortlake, which hasn’t had a post-season series for more than a decade. The Woorndoo-Mortlake Tigers have

SOLID: Tatyoon’s Alex McDougall marks the ball during his side’s 130 to 36 win against SMW Rovers at the weekend. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER got themselves to the finals with convincing wins during the home-andaway season. However, with only a draw and no wins against any other team in the top five so far in 2019, the odds will be against them. But as we all know, anything can happen in finals and usually does. The Tigers have shared the work load in front of goal, having had 10 players kick multiple goals. However, they will look to Jordan

Buckley, who is sitting on 97 goals, to make an impact and to reach the ton. Other talent that will see Woorndoo make a real fight of it includes Sam Gervasoni, Grant Cameron, Jesse Johnson, Travis Ware and the Pemberton brothers, Damian and Matthew. Sunday’s elimination action at Dunkeld also features SMW Rovers playing Woorndoo-Mortlake in the reserves and Penshurst playing Tatyoon in the under-16.5s.

Tatyoon

A finals force

BY JONATHAN BOX

hen it comes to Tatyoon in Mininera and District Football League, the team just oozes success.

And the Hawks’ results talk for themselves. In the past 10 years, Tatyoon has been in the finals every year, featuring in eight grand finals and two premierships. It doesn’t seem to matter where the Hawks finish in the top five – they are always a team to watch. And although there is some great competition in the fight for the flag this year, you cannot discount Tatyoon as a red-hot premiership chance. Tatyoon’s start to the season wasn’t a great one, having lost three of its first four games. However, in dropping only another two games for the rest of the season, the Hawks managed to hold on to their top-four spot. Last year the Hawks went the long way around in the finals by finishing fifth on the ladder and having to play every week to reach a grand-final berth against WickliffeLake Bolac. Tatyoon eventually went down to the Magpies, but just being there proved when it comes to finals they are never to be taken lightly. The team Tatyoon is taking into this year’s finals series is different in comparison with last year’s grand-final team. The Hawks lost a few players – Joe

Gibson, Tyson Marr, Shaun Orr, Geoffrey Jolly and Rick Hendrickson – as well as two of their top three goal kickers in Steven Butler and Trevor-John Wanganeen. Although these missing players have not gone unnoticed, the Hawks did not leave the holes unfilled. Recruiting players and having players return to the club and from injury has given Tatyoon a team worthy of finals competition. There are the likes of Joshua Brown, who has come on board as a big target up forward and booted 28 goals for the season, Rhys and Harrison Cronin, who have plenty of presence around the ground, and Joe and Sam Thomson, who provide massive amounts of physical presence and pressure in the middle of the ground as well as in attack. And let’s not forget the return of Mitch Cronin, whose class, work rate and ball skills have seen him in the best most weeks – usually in the top three. He has also kicked 29 goals to be the leading Hawks goal scorer. Add these players to an already strong core of experienced players such as Sean McDougall, Tim McDougall, Adrian Pilgrim, Jarrod Blandford, David Brady and Jack Antonio and you can see why they are so consistently a force to be reckoned with. Tatyoon finished fourth on the ladder and will play Woorndoo-Mortlake in the first elimination final at Dunkeld on Sunday.

MDFL Finals

Great Western

Lions to break ice G

BY JONATHAN BOX

reat Western is only days away from embarking on its first senior final series since entering Mininera and District Football League in 2012.

Although the seniors have taken a while to make the finals, the club’s reserves were able to make a splash in the league in their second year when they beat Wickliffe -Lake Bolac to capture a 2013 flag. It has been a long process for the Lions’ senior team to get the opportunity to show their stuff in the finals, with their results before this season being far from flattering. They have spent most of their time in the bottom three, with their best previous season in seven years coming in 2013 when they finished ninth on the ladder with six wins. In 2017 William Bell joined the ranks as coach and has taken the team from 12th place to the top three in the three years. Bell’s focus, along with coaching, has been player retention and recruitment. Holding onto players for multiple years has enabled the Lions to maintain a core group and add quality footballers to build up to the powerhouse they have this year. The Lions are delighted to see improvement in their whole list; their reserves also finished in the top two. The club attributes this to ‘sticking tight to team values’. Moving into the unknown of the finals, the Lions will be excited but also nervous. They have played a good brand of football during the home-and-away season and how

they will hold up in the heat of the finals is anyone’s guess. However, with the quality players they are boasting as well as the experience throughout the team, there is no reason to think their great run won’t continue. Although a flag is in sight and definitely on the cards, the main focus for the team will be to win their first MDFL senior final and to not get ahead of themselves, taking it all ‘one step at a time’. Great Western has shown plenty of promise and is in the post-season for good reason. They do, however, find themselves in the season play-offs with some finals specialists in Lismore-Derrinallum, Penshurst and Tatyoon, which have all been strong for many years. In fact, they have featured in the top five together eight times in the past 11 years and won two flags each in that time. Rounding out the top five and not to be pushed aside is Woorndoo-Mortlake, also playing in its first finals for more than a decade. Great Western might lack finals experience, but what they do have is a long list of players who have shone throughout the season. The Lions’ midfield has continued to go the extra mile every week, doing their fair share of the heavy lifting and giving their forwards plenty of scoring opportunities. Jesse Bennett, Andrew Cameron, Nick Dunford and Lachie Malloy have all regularly featured in the best players as well as doing their own bit in front of goal, with

MDFL MDNA

Great Western’s road to the finals Coach: William Bell

Cameron and Dunford kicking 48 and 28 goals respectively. Combining with these players have been the Lions’ big men in Jeremy Cronin and Josh Hustler, giving their players plenty of first use around the ground. That’s not forgetting the Lions’ X-factor players in the ‘Tiwi Boys’, Gerard Cunningham, Steven Lorenzo and Bradley Palipuaminni, who all perform each week. Cunningham and Lorenzo have kicked more than 115 goals between them for the season, and give their supporters something to cheer about each week. With the top five all so close it is set to be a great finals series and it is anyone’s for the taking. Great Western has posted some great wins during the home-and-away season but the season has not been without its faults, dropping games to Caramut as well as Penshurst and Lismore-Derrinallum. Great Western’s finals campaign opens this weekend against Lismore-Derrinallum at Willaura.

Round 1: W. 13.11 (89) d Lismore-Derrinallum 10.14 (74). Round 2: W. 41.31 (277) d Ararat Eagles 2.2 (14). Round 3: W. 21.17 (143) d Hawkesdale-Macarthur 3.5 (23).

Competition Down Under Earl breaks through remains tight V

BY DAVID BERRY

olleyball Horsham Monday night competition for C Grade and juniors has produced tight results in the first four weeks.

In C Grade, Horsham College Thunder girls have hit the ground running, winning their first three games. The girls are well led by Pascall Patterson and Alisha Matheson and have based their game around solid defence and consistent passing, which has enabled them to move to the top of the ladder. Hot on their heels are the Slutheran team. The combined St Brigid’s and Lutheran team has a good blend of experience with Matt McLoughlin and Kingsley Dalgleish complementing the work of Elsbeth Zeegers and Tamikah Burdett. The young Von Steiger Boomers are coming together nicely with Ruben Ferguson and Mitch Warrick leading the way. Perennial favorites Murtoa Railway are making it hard for the younger teams with Warren Young showing his experience coupled with Bill Lindsay. Rounding out the top six are St Brigid’s College Raptors, who have

won their past two games with Caitlin Hobbs and Jess Whitworth playing well, while the smoky in this grade – Von Steiger Gangsters – are starting to hit their straps with Rhyce Allan and Mikey Collins-Clarke showing form. In the juniors, Murtoa Gods have jumped to the top of the ladder with consistent play from Ella Van Duren and Millie Fagan. They lead two Lutheran teams, Raiders Gold and Raiders Black, which are getting better each week. The Gold team has Lily Snowden and Olivia Heard playing well, while the Black team is building nicely under Harry Robertson and Kaden Lanyon. The Phantoms and Murtoa Geckos round out the top six. The Phantoms are well served by the four Young brothers and their cousins Noah and Ellie Treloar, while the Geckos have Archie Gawith and Rhys Hemley playing good volleyball. There is still opportunity for boys and girls interested in playing to get on board in the Monday night junior competition. There are some teams looking for players. Contact info@volleyballhorsham. com.au for details.

Down Under Earl proved too good for the opposition in taking out a Trotters Handicap at R.T. White Raceway in Ararat. The four-year-old gelding was in its seventh career outing for Stawell owner-trainer Phillip Giles and his wife Tammy and continued on from a solid second placing 10 days earlier at Maryborough. The result notched up career victory number one. Driver Tina Ridis didn’t bustle the lightly raced square gaiter in the early and middle stages of the 2165-metre journey and was content to sit outside the leader Penelope – Jason Lee – for the majority of the trip.

Ridis gave her charge some rein at the 400-metre mark and the son of Down Under Muscles and Earl Bella trotted solidly to the post and scored by three metres from Allawart Bob – Aaron Dunn – with the backmarker Gus N Maori – Matty Craven – a

further seven metres astern in third spot. Team Giles races Down Under Earl on lease from his breeders the Fry family and barring accidents or injury should enjoy a few more trips to the winner’s circle. – Tony Logan

Back-to-back Baker beats bridesmaid Veteran cross country runner Terry Jenkins spent late Saturday afternoon in recovery mode rueing the thought of yet another race that had gotten away. Winless so far this year after nine weeks of seconds, thirds and fourths, Jenkins led the 10-kilometre Stawell cross-country running handicap for most of the last quarter, but was pipped on the post by the redoubtable Nathan Baker. The official margin was a mere five seconds with David Hunter, in full marathon training, a confidence-boosting third.

The club returns to Stawell’s Ironbarks for the 16-kilometre Life Members Handicap this weekend.

Hertz wild-care winner

Julie Hertz arrived at Moyston for a five-kilometre Wilde Family Handicap on Sunday with no thought of winning. But less than an hour later she had not only won for the first time since April 2017 but had spearheaded a rare all-girl trifecta in the Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club event. What motivated Hertz most in the

Wilde was an early awareness that Shevahn Healy posed a threat if she didn’t put her head down and her speed up. By the time she reached the timekeepers she held a 0.42-second advantage over recent winner Sue Blizzard with Healy, having made some ground, but still 1.24 minutes behind the winner in third place. This weekend the club faces the 10-kilometre Gallagher Family Handicap, which starts at the foot of One Tree Hill and winds through the Ararat Regional Park. – Keith Lofthouse

Hughan: Creek a versatile addition BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

immera basketball guru Owen Hughan believes star Horsham export Mitch Creek is a chance to earn a medal with Australia at the upcoming FIBA Basketball World Cup.

Creek was controversially left out of Australia’s 12-man world cup team last week, but an injury to Xavier Cooks opened the door for head coach Andrej Lemanis to pick Creek as a replacement. Creek has played for Australia in two Perth exhibition games against Canada and will play a further two games against the United States in Melbourne tomorrow and Saturday before the world cup starts on August 31. Creek played only six minutes off the bench in Australia’s first-up 90-70 loss to Canada on Friday, but earned nearly 15 minutes in a follow-up 81-73 win on Saturday. He scored five points, hitting one three-pointer, in the win. Hughan said he had been surprised Creek was initially left out of the team but was sure he would make the most of a fresh opportunity. Despite NBA All Star Ben Simmons pulling out of the Australian team and the Boomers’ lacklustre results in its warm-up games against Canada, Hughan said the team remained a chance to earn its first medal at a major international tournament.

POOLSIDE: Swimmers from left, Deacon Briggs, Jack Lanyon, Claudia Lanyon, Lily Eldridge, Krys Syrota, Tom Urquhart, Billie Donnan and Jorja Clode.

“I think Australia will go very well,” he said. “In other years, even though we had NBA players on the team, they were all role players. “This time around they’ve got blokes like Joe Ingles who are starters. These are the players who set the tone of the game, and the others come in and support.” Hughan said he believed the Horsham product would add versatility off the bench. “I don’t know what Lemanis’ reasoning was for why he picked him, but I think he would be used as a swing player in different situations,” he said. “Looking at that team, I think personally the guards are too small and you’ve only really got three of them. Mitch gives you a different look. “He’s not your typical three-man because generally a three-man is someone banging the ball from the outside as more of a shooter. “He can hit the outside ball, but the strength of Mitch’s game is his strength and quickness, and he can get to the hoop.” Hughan said he believed Creek was initially overlooked because of Lemanis’ desire to fill the team with shooters. “How many shooters do you need in a team?” he said. “You don’t need that many people playing one role. “If you’ve got a lot of players with the same skillset, there’s no versatility.”

No stage fright for swimmers This year the Countries bring together more than 600 of Victoria’s best non-metrolpolitan-Melbourne swimmers. Brad Harris, a top Victorian junior swimming coach, said they represented a pathway to elite competition. “Countries are a good stepping stone between district and state-level swimming,” he said. This year 14 swimmers from the Wimmera competed at the Countries, some for local clubs – Ararat, Horsham, Grampians – while others were furthering their pursuit of swimming excellence with larger clubs in Bendigo and Ballarat. Deacon Briggs said he relished the feeling of competing at Countries. “Compared to states and na-

BY TIM SYROTA “Zero-point-one-six seconds off,” says a lady in the stands at the Ballarat Swimming Centre. There are tears poolside as a swimmer misses out on qualifying for the Victorian State Country Championships. Krys Syrota, age 10, from Pomonal also has a final chance at qualification. She needs a one-second personal best to make the 11-and-under finals. “After my race I looked at the time board,” she said. “I had to check my lane number again because I beat my PB by two seconds, and then it was like, ‘Yes!’ I almost cried.” Tears of joy, tears of disappointment – simply, this is what it means to young swimmers to qualify for the ‘Countries’.

tional finals, the atmosphere is amazing. I love it,” he said. Another qualifier, Matthew Ough, said he loved meeting other swimmers from across the state. “It’s a great chance to catch up with friends from clubs from all over Victoria,” he said. The Wimmera swimmers competed in 56 individual events and recorded a 39 PBs. Particular congratulations to medal winners Lily Eldridge, first and third, and Jorja Clode, two thirds. Yet all Wimmera finalists – and their coaches – deserve credit: Madee Townsend, Tom Urquhart, Jack and Claudia Lanyon, Krys Syrota, Jorja Clode, Billie Donnan, Dylan Ryan, Deacon Briggs, Matthew Ough, Luca Geue, Ruby Hill, Eloise Wills, and Lily Eldridge.

Top teams ready for finals tune up BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

our finals-bound sides will test each other in the remaining matches of the Wimmera Netball Association A Grade season on Saturday. Top side Minyip-Murtoa will meet third-placed Ararat, with second-rung Horsham to do battle with fourth-placed Warrack Eagles. Looming behind all of them is two-time reigning premier Horsham Saints, which could again be the wildcard in the pack as it chases another premiership. The Burras had a nice tune-up for their meeting with the Rats when they thrashed Nhill by 29 goals at the weekend. Young gun Molly Fagan played three quarters at wing attack before being given a chance at goal attack in the last, impressing coach Billie Bibby in the 68-39 win. Ellie McGrath at goal keeper was also strong, helping limit the damage done by dangerous Nhill goal shooter Sydney Thorogood. At the other end of the court, Burra

goalie Kirby Knight notched yet another 50-goal game despite the close checking of Nhill defender Sarah Dickinson. The team will meet an Ararat outfit coming off a 12-goal loss at the hands of Horsham. The Rats were outpointed in the first quarter but, with some positional changes in the second, fought their way back to within three goals. Delaney McLoughlin scored 11 goals in the second while Krystal Fisher helped subdue the Demons at the other end of the court. Horsham flexed its considerable muscle after half time however, running out with a 50-38 win behind the continued strong play of the ultra-consistent Emma Buwalda and Georgia Hiscock. The Demons could claim top spot it the Burras slip up against the Rats but must first take care of business against Warrack Eagles, who are coming off a bye. Horsham Saints showed they could win yet another flag from back in the pack with an ominous 64-39 win over Southern Mallee Giants.

The Saints got a huge boost from the inclusion of Maggie Caris, who finished with 46 goals, but it was her partner Lavinia Fox at goal attack and midcourter Abby Hallam who drove the side. For the Giants, Kiana Marshman continued to impress in a strong individual season while Amy Dodds scored 18 goals before moving to defence in the last quarter. The Saints could move up into third place if they beat Dimboola this weekend and other results go their way. The Roos are coming off a disappointing loss to Stawell. Goal keeper Emily Polack and goal defence Ruby Redford did their best to keep the Warriors at bay, but Stawell’s Ebony Summers, 31 goals, proved too strong at shooter with Jade Cross feeding her the ball. Stawell’s win disrupted what had been a positive second half of the season for Dimboola, and gave the Warriors positive momentum ahead of Saturday’s final-round meeting with bottom side Nhill.

Natimuk team to beat BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

ith Horsham District netball finals starting on Saturday, the question on everybody’s lips is, ‘who can stop Natimuk United?’

The Ewes have primed themselves for an assault on a third straight A Grade premiership with an undefeated home and away campaign. The most likely challenger appears to be Laharum, which has consistently pushed the Ewes to the brink of defeat during the past two seasons, but Harrow-Balmoral also looms as a premiership smoky after overcoming an injury-riddled year. Swifts have continued their feelgood transformation from competition punching bag to perennial finals contender, while 2018 preliminary finalist Edenhope-Apsley and Kalkee round out the top six. The Ewes showed the gulf between themselves and the lower reaches of the six by dismantling the Kees 67-29 at the weekend. The experience of Natimuk United’s many veterans showed through as a 52-goal performance from goal shooter Shannon Couch led the rout. Kalkee will now regroup ahead of the finals but can draw confidence from the strong attacking

play of midcourter Rianna Kuhne and shooter Hayley Thomas. Laharum also recorded a win against Edenhope-Apsley, although it came in bizarre cirumstances. The Demons led 44-13 when the Saints decided to forfeit the match. Four Saints, including co-coaches Ellie Thomas and Sarah Domaschenz, were sidelined with injuries during the game and decided to abandon it to the preserve themselves for finals. Harrow-Balmoral made short work of Jeparit-Rainbow after a relatively close first half, extending an eight-goal advantage at the long break to 20 by the final whistle. Amy Lewis connected on 36 shots in the goal ring, with Brittany Keller starting alongside her at goal attack before switching to goal defence in the final quarter. With coach Ebonie Salter sitting the game out, young Roo Olivia Muldoon earned playing time at wing attack and goal attack. Jeparit-Rainbow experimented with its line-up during the 55-35 loss, with all players except goal attack Breanna Eastick swapping bibs at least once during the afternoon. Swifts put the final touches on a fourth-place finish with a 59-42 win against Rupanyp, driven by defend-

It was a competitive final showing for the 1-15 Panthers, who have dealt with injuries throughout the year. Rupanyup coach and goal defence Kayla Woods was again solid, while Emma Downes impressed at goal attack. Noradjuha-Quantong missed the finals but ended its season on a high note in a 53-35 victory against Taylors Lake. Lucy Brand and Louisa Vague

were the Bombers’ best, while Grace Dixon continued to be one of the Lakers’ leading lights in defence. Elimination finals kick off this weekend with Harrow-Balmoral taking on Kalkee at North Park, Stawell, on Saturday, while Swifts and Edenhope-Apsley will do battle at Kalkee on Sunday. See the 20-page liftout in today’s The Weekly Advertiser for full finals previews.

THE

Parkrun set to continue Weekly Wimmera River parkruns are set to continue after a successful first 12 months. The Horsham run, part of a worldwide movement promoting community health and wellbeing, will celebrate its first birthday on Saturday at 8am at Sawyer Park. Event director Andrew Sostheim said the weekly gatherings had been a success and the Saturday morning activity had become an ‘institution’ regardless of weather. “We were so proud to take home the Community Health Award and also the People’s Choice Award at the 2019 Centre for Participation Volunteering Recognition Awards,” he said. “Parkrun is run entirely by volunteers and it is amazing to see what a community can achieve when you come together.” Wimmera River Parkrun’s 2018 launch involved 243 participants and throughout the year the runs have attract 916 runners who have clocked up 22,275 kilometres. It has involved 423 volunteer occasions; 126 individual volunteers and runners have achieved 980 personal-best times. “The Wimmera River parkrun has been great for the community and also visitors, with locals joining visitors from as far away as Sweden, England and Canada on the weekly five-kilometre run or walk.” People can register free of charge online at www.parkrun.com.au/register. The parkrun events, apart from occurring globally, are also at Nhill, Ararat and Hamilton.

Finals kick off BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

ix Horsham District football teams will now turn their attention towards the finals after the home and away season wrapped up on Saturday.

Reigning premier Harrow-Balmoral heads a list of finalists that includes Edenhope-Apsley, Natimuk United, Noradjuha-Quantong, Swifts and Jeparit-Rainbow. The Roos are clear favourites to capture back-to-back flags, a point underlined by their dominant 23.11 (149) to 5.1 (31) win against the Storm at the weekend. The floodgates opened after half time, with the Roos outscoring their opponents 90-13 in the second half. Midfielder Peter Staude led the rout, with Eric Guthrie and coach Nick Pekin also finding plenty of the ball. Edward Ferguson finished the afternoon with three goals — one of five Roos to do so — in his best game for the year. It was a disappointing day for Jeparit-Rainbow, which remains the only club to have beaten Harrow-Balmoral in the past two seasons. Backman Simon Clugston and centre Brad Hunter were the Storm’s best, while coach Dan Bat-

son kicked two on a lean day for the team’s forwards. Second-placed Edenhope-Apsley also powered its way into the finals with a 26.16 (172) to 3.3 (21) win against Laharum, orchestrated by Bart Nolan, Will McEvoy and Lachie Middleton. Charlie Campbell bobbed up to kick five goals for the Saints, matching George Walker’s total for the day. Coach Tom Crawford and big man Mitch Horwood were Laharum’s best. While the result capped a difficult season for the Demons, supporters still had reason to smile as veteran and respected clubman Gerard ‘Jedi’ Matthews played his 250th senior game. Another club stalwart — Rupanyup’s Paul Trotter — also notched an impressive milestone, playing his 300th game in an upset win against finals-bound Swifts. The defender was among the Panthers’ best in the 14.7 (91) to 10.8 (68) win, with Elliot Kelly, Campbell Matthews and Darby Harrison shining alongside him. For the Baggies it was a less than ideal hitout before the finals, with defender Todd Matthews and fivegoal forward Zach Salmi among the few standouts.

Natimuk United secured its first top-three finish in more than 20 years when it beat Kalkee 13.20 (98) to 8.20 (68) at Kalkee. It was a day of celebrations for Rams supporters, who relished beating the Kees for the first time since the 1990s. Making the day even more special was the fact club legend Simon Mentz — now in his 50s — played in the win. Among a host of strong performers for the Rams were Justin Bromley, Mitch Riddell and forward Jaydon Stiles, who claimed the league goal-kicking title with seven majors. Noradjuha-Quantong also ended its season on a high, sneaking into fourth place after defeating Taylors Lake 11.19 (85) to 3.10 (28). While the game was not the most aesthetically pleasing spectacle, the Bombers would still be thrilled to earn their first finals berth in eight years. They will take on Swifts in an elimination final at Kalkee on Sunday, while Natimuk United will play a cutthroat final against Jeparit-Rainbow at Stawell’s North Park on Saturday.

Top-of-the-table showdown I

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

ntrigue surrounds a top-of-thetable contest between MinyipMurtoa and Ararat as the final round of Wimmera Football League’s home and away season gets underway on Saturday.

The top-ranked Burras are undefeated in 2019 and look every inch a premiership fancy. They defeated the Rats by 35 points in a physical round nine contest, and if they can repeat the feat this weekend they will send a clear warning to the rest of the league. Minyip-Murtoa is coming off a 14.11 (95) to 6.5 (41) win against Nhill in which it was tested early before pulling away in the second quarter. With Jae McGrath, seven goals, firing up forward, midfielder Tim McIntyre winning the ball out of the centre and defender Tim Mackenzie controlling proceedings down back, the Burras were able to canter to a win. Toby Case, Jake Harrap and Colby Blyth were the best for the Tigers, who will conclude their season against Stawell this weekend. Ararat, meanwhile, should be raring to go after a scrappy win against Horsham. The Demons simply did not have enough firepower to contend with the

Rats, despite throwing everything at them in the 12.12 (84) to 7.10 (52) result. Star midfielder Dan Mendes kicked three goals for Ararat, with Jake Williamson, Grady Slocombe and key back Dylan Shelley among the other standouts. Horsham captain Ben Lakin turned in his third straight best-afield performance for the Demons, with ruckman Billy Carberry and youngster

Matt Wynne also turning in creditable games. The Demons will face Warrack Eagles, fresh off a bye, in the final round as they prepare to miss the finals for the first time in nearly two decades. The match of the round between Horsham Saints and Southern Mallee Giants saw the Giants scrape home with a thrilling three-point win, 8.11 (59) to 7.14 (56). Forward Josh Webster was the hero

for the home team, breaking a run of three straight behinds in the dying minutes of the term as the Giants desperately surged forward. Webster ended with five goals in one of his best games this year, finishing off the hard work of midfielders Tyler Lehmann and Lou White. It marks the first time the Saints have lost to the Giants since the southern Mallee outfit joined the league last season, and a potential finals rematch

seems enticing. For now though, the Saints will focus on Dimboola as they try to close the season with some momentum. The Roos experienced something of a letdown at the weekend, albeit against a strong side in Stawell. The Warriors were in control from the start of the 17.15 (117) to 6.6 (42) win, with defender Paul Summers carving up the Roos with his rebound from the back half. Summers and centre half back Jackson Dark were springboards into attack for the Warriors, with onballer Tom Eckel serving as a conduit to full forward Cody Driscoll who booted five goals. Jarryd Graham, Elliot Braithwaite and Sam Godden were Dimboola’s best in the loss. With one round to play the top five is nearly set. Minyip-Murtoa is safe atop the ladder, Ararat has a lead of four points and plenty of percentage on the thirdplaced Giants, who themselves will bank four points with a bye. Fifth-placed Horsham Saints could overtake fourth-placed Stawell, but would require the Warriors to falter against Nhill – a scenario that appears unlikely.

Clubs lock in 2020 coaches BY COLIN MACGILLIVRAY

hile the Horsham District and Wimmera Football League seasons still have weeks of finals ahead, several teams have kept an eye on next season by locking in their coaches.

Harrow-Balmoral will retain playing coach Nick Pekin for the 2020 season. Pekin has enhanced his reputation as one of the best players in the region since crossing to the Roos in 2017, coaching the side to a premiership and winning the District league’s Dellar Medal last year. The Roos have put the finishing touches on an undefeated home and away campaign this year, with Pekin again in the thick of the action. Rupanyup’s Jack Musgrove is another to recommit to his position, signing on for a third year with the Panthers in 2020. While Rupanyup found itself well back in the finals race in an injury-plagued year, the team showed it could mix it with upper-echelon sides in wins against Swifts and Jeparit-Rainbow and a competitive performance against Edenhope-Apsley.

A third Horsham District coach already locked up for next year is Noradjuha-Quantong’s Gareth Hose, who signed a two-year extension before the start of this season. Hose has led a rejuvenation of the Bombers’ list, blooding several young players and guiding the team to its first finals berth since 2011. Wimmera league team Nhill will be hoping new coach Jaye Macumber can have a similar effect when he takes the reins next season. Macumber is highly respected as a coach, having guided Minyip-Murtoa to a grand final berth in 2016 and served as a development coach for the Western Bulldogs’ Next Generation Academy. Macumber will take over from Tim Bone, who has helmed the Tigers for the past two seasons. Pimpinio will also be led by a fresh face, with Chris Walsh inheriting the top job from Liam Jakobi. Jakobi will continue as a player and assistant coach but will be able to focus more on his playing commitments. Both Nhill and Pimpinio will be hoping Macumber and Walsh can lead them to finals in their respective leagues after many years on the outside looking in.

Variable results in pigeon racing Horsham Racing Pigeon Club had two races – one from Lake Bolac on a southeast line on Friday and another from Mildura on a north line on Saturday. With less-favourable weather conditions predicted for Sunday, the club rescheduld the Lake Bolac race to Friday. Leading pigeons took two hours and 18 minutes to cover the 121-kilometre flight from Lake Bolac, rel-

atively slow given the southwesterly breeze on Friday. The winner, owned by John Muszkieta, averaged 871 metres a minute which equates to an average of 53kmh. Muszkieta’s winning entry was 3.46 minutes ahead of the McPhee family’s second-placed pigeon. In contrast, the winning pigeon in the Mildura to Horsham race, owned by Rob Nelson, averaged 84kmh.

It covered the 277km in 3.19 hours, a quick flight, in part aided by the freshening northerly breeze on Saturday morning. The mob of 669 race pigeons owned by 17 members were released at 8.30am and the winner entered its home loft in Horsham at 11.49am. Next weekend’s racing will be from Coombah on the north line and from Mortlake on the southeast line.

Dynamic dancer Don’t be wins at nationals lickin’ ya

rarat’s Holly Allgood, 18, has added another notch to her list of achievements at a 2019 DanceStar and Glee Australian National Championships after securing five podium finishes.

The Dynamic Dance Ararat student won gold for senior secondary in jazz broadway solo and classical solo categories at the Gold Coast event. She also won silver in jazz auditions, and bronze in lyrical-contemporary solo and secondary improvisation. Dynamic Dance Ararat teacher Charlotte Hamilton said Holly had brought home national titles in previous years, but remained a modest competitor committed to her passion. “Holly is somebody who has always worked her hardest,” she said. “If I give her some choreography, she’s nailed it by the next class. “She is always really humble as well – she will always go up and congratulate other competitors.” Holly said the event was her favourite competition to attend each year. “There is always a really positive vibe,” she said. “I love making new friendships and competing alongside other amazing performers.” Holly was also given the honour of singing the Australian National Anthem at the event’s opening ceremony.

Golden moment After months of training and dedication, Horsham’s Jaya Meadows has clinched her first national gold medal in aerobics. The Holy Trinity Lutheran College student became the Wimmera’s latest Australian champion while competing on Queensland’s Gold Coast. The 12-year-old finished ahead of Australia’s elite junior aerobics talent, winning a singles division amid fierce competition. Her performance on Saturday was her first as a solo competitor at Australian Schoolaerobics National Championships, and the first national gold medal result for coach Amanda Wik since 2011. Jaya said that, at first, she could hardly believe the result. “It was just amazing,” she said. “I just want to say thank you to Amanda for being the best coach ever.” Ararat’s Holly Allgood also added to the Wimmera’s sporting success story at the weekend, walking away with two national gold medals in Schoolaerobics’ sibling DanceStar and Glee competitions.
