THE CLAWS ARE OUT: BugROff Stain Busters owner Aaron Jennings, left, and employee Heath Kinnersly will enjoy plenty of banter this week in the lead-up to Saturday’s AFL grand final. Mr Jennings, a life-long Cats supporter, has been to several preliminary finals but is yet to see his beloved side play in the big dance. Mr Jennings employed Tigers fan Mr Kinnersly about three weeks ago and joked he might have to ‘backtrack’ on his decision pending the outcome of the match. Mr Kinnersly said tongue-in-cheek he was glad his choice of AFL team did not come up in his interview. “I might not have got the job,” he said. Mr Jennings said he looked forward to ‘a fair bit of banter’ this week. “We’ve got a big job to do on Friday for the public holiday and no one will be there, so we’ll be wearing our jumpers and keeping at different ends of the house from each other, I think,” he said. Mr Jennings has tipped Geelong by 33 points, while Mr Kinnersly reckons Richmond will triumph by two goals. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Community unites A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

new chapter was unfolding for Emma Hitchcock when her health started to decline. The former Ararat resident, her partner Simon Eason and their five daughters and son had just moved into their ‘dream home’ at Beaufort when they received unbearable news. Emma, 45, was admitted to St Vincent’s Hospital in Melbourne in May with compromised mobility – her leg muscles were weakening. She was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease, MND. “The first signs of my illness were

limping and I was catching my legs on uneven surfaces,” Emma said. “This progressively got worse. I started developing a noticeable limp.” The diagnosis came as a shock. Emma said before the diagnosis she had led an active lifestyle, having owned a clothing shop in Ararat’s main street for many years before moving on to Hopkins Correctional Centre where she worked until her health deteriorated. “My reaction was total shock and disbelief. I’ve always been active,” she said. “I thought how can this be happening? My family and support network

of its target. And after three months, residents, businesses, friends and family helped raise more than $30,000 to go towards a hydrotherapy spa. Emma said she was overwhelmed by the community’s support. “I have received tremendous support, both monetary and otherwise,” she said. “I cannot thank all who have donated money, food, support and wellwishes enough. “The generosity of people in these trying times is truly humbling. “It is in times like these true community spirit shines through and true local strength becomes evident.”

were all devastated and shocked by the diagnosis.” Although the thought of losing her mobility was hard to come to terms with, family, friends and the Ararat community have given Emma a big reason to push on. More than 250 people across Ararat district and beyond have helped in her fight against the life-threatening condition. Ararat resident and former co-worker Shane McFarlane started a GoFundMe page shortly after Emma was diagnosed. Within 48 hours of being live, the campaign reached the halfway point

Emma said hydrotherapy was her best bet to salvage any quality of life as she fights to retain muscle strength in her legs. But she said the road ahead was still unclear. Life expectancy after an MND diagnosis is one to five years, with only 10 percent of people living past 10 years. The needs of people with the condition vary from person to person and can be complex. Some people begin to stumble or fall and cannot hold objects in their hands easily. Continued page 3

Call to restart supported programs A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera disability support agency is eager to see a return of its supported employment and activity programs to boost morale during the coronavirus pandemic. During the second wave of restrictions, Warracknabeal disability support agency Woodbine was forced to close its programs to ensure clients were safe from risks of COVID-19. Woodbine has five supported accommodation houses and offers supported employment and day program opportunities across Warracknabeal. The service provider also offers activities for people living in Horsham. Chief executive Bernie O’Connor said Woodbine was keen to see a return to more of its programs as restrictions eased. But uncertainty for the service provider has continued following premier Daniel Andrews’ Sunday announcement about easing restrictions in regional Victoria. “There is no indication at all when

we will be able to restart to our supported employment or day programs,” he said. “These people, particularly those who rely on our day programs, miss their mates and they don’t get the same range of activities throughout the day.” Woodbine is able to offer its day programs to small cohorts of people who live outside of its supported living accommodation. But Mr O’Connor said the organisation was not adequately staffed to offer day programs at a full-capacity while focus was on running five houses in supported-living circumstances. “There is no prospect at the moment that would allow us to do anything other than emergency-type support,” he said. “Even then, we’re restricted by the amount of people we can put in a bus to go and do activities they used to do. “And if we did that, we can’t congregate in the facility. “We’ve got limited staff numbers, but we can do activities for small

“These people, particularly those who rely on our day programs, miss their mates and they don’t get the same range of activities throughout the day”

groups one or two times a week for people who aren’t in supported accommodation.” Woodbine’s supported employment program is also running at ‘reduced’ capacity. It normally provides work opportunities for people living with a disability at its café, laundromat, opportunity shop and a clothing shop. “We’ve closed Country Essentials, the opportunity, we’ve closed everything except for what we consider essential,” Mr O’Connor said. “We’ve still got the laundromat open and our YarriYak Café is still open to provide for essential workers at Rural Northwest Health.

“But these businesses are the reason Woodbine thrives and where we get our funding from. Closing those businesses is not an easy decision to make.” Mr O’Connor said there were still opportunities for clients to get involved in gardening at Woodbine sites. He said the JobKeeper payment was a major relief for those who had lost their job during the pandemic. “The biggest comfort I have is that we have nearly everyone signed up for JobKeeper who are doing supported employment,” he said. “They’re getting a wage while we go through this grief together.” Uniting Wimmera is planning to restart its day programs for people living with a disability. The Horsham-based service provider would normally offer its participants opportunities to visit the library, shops, town hall, parks and other ‘relaxing or interesting’ community spaces. It also runs exercise, performing arts and arts and crafts programs out of its

Baillie Street address. All of these opportunities have been cancelled during the pandemic. Executive officer Josh Koenig said Uniting would look to return these programs in small groups in line with COVID-19 restrictions. “Our staff are really keen to get back as well – we’ve just got to make sure we reopen in the appropriate timeline and are mindful of government guidelines,” he said. “We’re in the planning process to reintroduce small groups in a COVIDsafe way wherever possible.” Mr Koenig said staff would continue to keep in regular contact with participants. “Since we suspended our day programs in their traditional format we’ve been in contact with consumers on a weekly basis, whether over the phone, online Zoom meetings or through one-on-one appointments,” he said. “The impacts of mental health during this time has been on our radar.”

United in true community spirit From page 1 MND can also affect the throat and tongue muscles. Some people with MND begin to slur their speech or struggle to swallow. In most cases, the disease eventually leads to widespread muscle wasting and weakness. The cause of MND remains a mystery to researchers and there is no known cure. Months of uncertainty followed Emma’s diagnosis. She found it increasingly difficult to walk or even stand. “I become easily fatigued moving around. Attending appointments I require a walking aid,” Emma said. “I’m no longer able to do the things I have always done, whether that’s cleaning, exercising, going out for coffee or shopping. I need someone with me at all times in case I fall.” Despite an uphill battle, Emma said her family and friends were a major factor in her life, giving her the determination to stay strong. “The support and love of my family and friends drives me to fight with all of my might and live my life as best I can,” she said. “I am exploring all potential medical trials in hope of helping to find a cure.” Emma has three daughters and a son, while Simon has two daughters. The family lives together at their

newly built house at Beaufort, with Simon travelling to work at Ararat’s Hopkins prison, where he originally met Emma. Simon said it was a hard reality when the news hit. “It was definitely a shock. You can only hope the doctors are wrong because they can’t figure out what the problem is. That was my hope,” he said. “The cruel part about MND is, you’re still quick-witted and smart in the mind, but your body just becomes unable to act out what your brain is telling it to.”

Emotional roller coaster

Simon said the uncertainty around Emma’s condition was like an ‘emotional roller coaster’ for the whole family. “The doctors can’t tell us much at this stage,” he said. “No one can say if it’s going to be 12 months or 20 years – that’s the difficult part. Some days you attack it head on and think, we’ve turned the corner and we’ll definitely beat it. Then it could even be only two hours later that you become exhausted and the reality of it confronts you again and takes the wind out of your sails.” However, in the face of improbability, the family has stuck together. “This has definitely strengthened a

bond between all siblings,” Simon said. “Your whole world closes in and suddenly trivial matters just become insignificant compared with something like this. But it has been really strengthening for the family group. “Luckily the kids are all fairly outgoing and have other things to stay focused on. But it does get them down at times, they’ve all got really good support networks and we try to keep the best eye on them that we can. “I feel very lucky to be able to share my life, my children and family’s life with Emma. I feel very privileged to have met her.” Simon said he was overwhelmed with the community’s support, especially during the socio-economic circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. “Given the times we’re in, fundraising is bloody difficult,” he said. “That was a terrific outcome we were able to purchase the spa. That was the original goal with it, so we achieved the goal and then some. That just speaks volumes of the character of person Emma is. She is a very caring, genuine and enthusiastic person. She would do anything for anyone. “She just sees the good in every possible situation.

People wouldn’t be that generous in difficult times if they didn’t feel it was a worthy cause.” Shane said it was inspiring to see so many people get behind the campaign he organised. “It came as a shock to everyone when Emma was diagnosed. She is known to a lot of people,” he said. Shane thanked the community for supporting the campaign. “It makes you proud to think what the community has done to help out someone who is going through a tough time,” he said.

Dance School goes virtual

COVID support funding provides online access to dance classes Horsham School of Dance is using Horsham Rural City Council’s COVID Support funding to increase the quality of its online learning experience. While physical distancing is essential, Horsham School of Dance has invested in new audiovisual equipment as it looks to build its future around virtual classes. “I’ll be using the funding to update my laptop webcam and my video filming and editing resources,” said business owner Karen Booker. The benefits of this will also continue once COVID-normal is achieved. “In the future, people will be more aware of when they’re feeling unwell.” “When we return to usual face-toface classes, if someone can’t be in class due to health reasons but they would still like to participate, I’ll be able to be live streaming the

session and still interacting with them.” “I’m grateful for the Council’s support so I can continue moving forward with my business in the future,” she said. Horsham School of Dance was a successful applicant in the Horsham Rural City Council’s second round of COVID Support grants, for the Stronger Business stream. The two other streams include Recreation and Community Recovery, and Arts and Events Activation. The grants program is open to affected people and groups located in the Horsham municipality until March 2021, or until funding is fully allocated.

Brighter prospects for indoor sports W

BY DYLAN DE JONG

immera indoor sport enthusiasts are beginning to see the ‘light at the end of the tunnel’ following an easing of COVID-19 restrictions in regional Victoria.

State premier Daniel Andrews’ Sunday announcement included conditions for junior indoor sport to resume from November 1. It will be limited to non-contact activities, such as dance classes and gymnastics. All activities will be capped at 20 people, who must be distanced 1.5 metres from others. Spectators will be limited to one parent or guardian if a child requires supervision. Indoor pools can also reopen to up to 20 people at a time, and one-on-one hydrotherapy sessions are allowed indoors, when accompanied by a health professional. The announcement came as a major relief for Natimuk and District Gymnastic Club head coach Lynette Morrow. Her gymnastic classes were able to restart earlier this month, but groups were capped at a maximum of 10 students outdoors. Due to restrictions on indoor sport at the time, the committee was forced to move equipment outside to mitigate the risk of spreading COVID-19. Mrs Morrow said students could return to inside classes from November 1, which would allow her to run more frequent lessons to cater for the more than 300 students across the Wimmera. “I’ll be able to fit 40 people, because I’ll do a few sessions a night,” she said. “When we were outside, we were limited by daylight hours. Now, we’ll do the best we can to offer classes to as many students as we can.” Mrs Morrow said the lift to restrictions was a positive step forward for the club. “This still limits us, but it is better than what we’ve had,” she said. “Being able to cater for more gymnastics is great and being able to go back inside means we don’t have to battle the weather.” Mrs Morrow said students had worked ‘tirelessly’ to maintain pre-COVID fitness levels.

She said the timing of reopening the gym was crucial to students’ development. “It’s extremely important, especially for their mental health. A lot of sport provides kids with stability and they can achieve that through sport,” she said. “That allows them to be more confident in themselves.” While gymnastics and other non-contact sport can go ahead for juniors, there is still uncertainty surrounding when senior-level indoor sport can restart. Wimmera Regional Sports Assembly executive officer David Berry said the downward trend in COVID-19 indicated potential for a brighter end to 2020 for senior sport. However, he said the fate of senior competitions in 2020 would be dependent on further lifting of restrictions. “It depends on how the sports are structured. For sports such as basketball that normally run competition post-Christmas, there might be an opportunity for them to run a modified competition into the new year,” he said. “For those that only run up until Christmas, there might be a limited opportunity to run without finals or grand finals and just the opportunity to let people play and connect with their peers.” Mr Berry said sport clubs would have to adapt as COVID-19 restrictions changed. “For contact sport, if the downward trend continues, then there might be some light at the end of the tunnel to start something like what we’ve been doing with the juniors,” he said. “For clubs that are prepared to try something outside the square, there’s an opportunity there.” Mr Berry, who is also Volleyball Horsham president, said the club was awaiting confirmation from the Catholic Education Department to use St Brigid’s College stadium. He said the club planned to start under-15 and under-17 competitions from November 2. “We’re deemed as a non-contact sport and we’re just waiting for confirmation as to whether we can use the stadium for our competition,” he said. • More on COVID-19 restrictions, page 6.

Mixed emotions for hospitality BY DYLAN DE JONG

capacity increase for hospitality venues in regional Victoria has sparked mixed emotions from business owners across the Wimmera.

New COVID-19 rules introduced on Sunday mean cafés and restaurants can now double indoor capacity to seat 40 patrons. Outdoor spaces can now host up to 70 patrons per venue. Individual bookings will still be capped at 10 people and social-distancing rules apply. Horsham White Hart Hotel publican Bruce Hartigan has welcomed the new rules. Before restrictions lifted he was forced to turn people away when he hit capacity. “The increase in limits will make it easier for us to run. Before, I would have to tell regular walk-ins to go away – that’s not good for our business,” he said. “You do that a few times and customers won’t come back.” Mr Hartigan said he hoped to make the most of easing restrictions in time for the AFL grand final long weekend. “At the weekend I’ll have some people in for the grand final. I will actually make some money and we’ll be back in business, to a degree,” he said. “Hopefully with the festive season upon us, people will want to get out.” Mr Hartigan said during the pandemic his business had taken a ‘massive hit’ financially. “We’ve had eight months of flatline, where we would be losing $10,000 a week,” he said. “If that went on for another 12 months, we’d be pulling the pin.” He said it was important to continue providing a social outlet for his customers. “We need interaction and the pubs provide

that. It’s a great community support,” he said. While the Horsham venue would make the most of the changes to restrictions, Natimuk’s National Hotel publican Bill Lovel said the lifting of restrictions would make little difference to his venue. He said the government’s one person to four square-metre rule indoors would prevent him from increasing his capacity. “There’s not going to be a great deal of change because we’ve only got three rooms so we can only put 10 people in each room while socially distanced,” he said. He said he would still be forced to turn patrons away when he reached capacity. “If we get booked out in the bar, locals can’t come in for a beer. It becomes a bit hard to balance,” he said. Mr Lovel said he would wait for restrictions to ease further. “I think it would work better for us if the government dropped it back to one person per two square metres,” he said. Mr Lovel said takeaway meals and support from Natimuk residents was helping his business remain economically viable. “We just want to say a big thanks to the locals who have been really good to us during this time,” he said. Along with hospitality changes, people in regional Victoria can now invite two people, plus their dependents, to their home. This replaces the social bubble. Libraries can reopen for a maximum of 20 people, with no more than 10 people per space. Outdoor religious gatherings can increase to 20 people and increase to 50 people from November 1. The number of people allowed at weddings and funerals remains at 10 and 20 respectively.

COVIDSAFE: Nourish’d Eatery cafe owner Stewart Neighbour is transforming his business to adapt to COVID-19 restrictions.

Window of opportunity Restrictions on hospitality businesses has forced one Horsham café to think outside of the box to meet the demand of the new ‘COVID normal’. Nourish’d Eatery has used a COVID-19 support grant to install a servery window at its café, allowing for quicker and safer service for staff and customers. Café owner Stewart Neighbour has adapted the layout at his Roberts Avenue shop in order to welcome more orders from the footpath. “Through the new servery window we will be able to serve our new Bad Boy Burger Co range as well as our coffee and health food,” he said. “Not having as many peo-

ple actually inside the door will help with the efficiency of our business. It means staff can spend more time preparing orders.” The business owner successfully applied for a Horsham Rural City Council COVID support grant to fund the new window, designed and installed by a Horsham business. Mr Neighbour said coming into the warmer months, he was also planning other ways to adapt his eatery. “I am looking at ordering apps to encourage people to order ahead. This will mean low wait times and pre-ordering will mean that customers aren’t waiting around,” he said. “I am also looking to pro-

mote my business to encourage locals to spend at my locally owned café.” The grants are open to all businesses, individuals and community organisations in Horsham Rural City to help prepare, respond and build resilience to the pandemic. Applications are in three categories – stronger business, recreation and community recovery, and arts and events activation. The program is open until March 2021, or until funding is fully allocated. Applications will be assessed and approved monthly throughout the period to ensure support is available when it is needed.

Special milestone for ‘spirited’ May N

hill resident May Craig is likely to find herself the ‘town celebrity’ this week, as family and friends join her in celebrating a life well lived.

Mrs Craig turns 100 tomorrow and although the COVID-19 pandemic has halted any plans for a large celebration, there will be a small gathering in her honour at Goldsworthy Park. Mrs Craig’s daughter, Lesley Gordon, said although there would not be a big party, government restrictions would not stop people letting her mother know ‘just how special she is’. “In this world in Victoria at the moment there’s not much joy so it’s lovely to have something to celebrate,” she said. “Mum is amazing, she is in particularly good health. She’s got a great sense of humour. She is very spirited and independent. She lives on her own and she’s only just recently accepted any help at all.” Mrs Craig was born in Colac in 1920 and spent her childhood on the family farm at Kennedys Creek. Her father died when she was nine, a life-changing experience, leaving her mother to bring up six children while running the farm. “There is no doubt that May inherited her mum’s strength of character which has carried her through her life,” Mrs Gordon said. Mrs Craig left school at 15 and was sent to work in Colac. Fiercely patriotic, when the Japanese bombed Darwin, she travelled to Melbourne for the first time. “I found the Women’s Air Force enlistment offices, but it took me a while to walk through the door,” Mrs Craig said. “I actually walked up and down the street for a while before finally plucking up the courage to go in.

May Craig “I wanted to parachute out of planes into enemy territory, you know, I was young and very naïve. In the end I didn’t do anything heroic, but I suppose I ‘did my bit’. “I often think I was protected during the war years. When the American soldiers arrived in Australia with chocolates, silk stockings and all manner of lovely things to tempt my friends, I missed out on their attentions. “‘Thin was in’ and I had a chubby layer of fat so they never bothered about me. “However, I made some wonderful lifelong friends in the air force, although sadly they have all passed away now. I guess that’s what happens when you live to 100.” May met her husband, Keith Craig, on a Melbourne tram just before he shipped out with the British Commonwealth Occupational Forces, BCOF, to Japan. They corresponded while he was over-

seas and sometime after his return to Australia they married. The couple lived in Melbourne and had two daughters. In 1957, the family travelled to Kaniva so Mr Craig could help his brother in his new business, the Kaniva Club Hotel. A two-week stay turned into a lifetime. Although Mrs Craig had little education by today’s standards, she enjoyed writing stories. In the past 15 years she has published three books of short stories, donating proceeds to the Cancer Council. After her husband’s death from cancer, Mrs Craig sold her house at Kaniva and moved in with her daughter in Horsham. “I wasn’t well at that time and I remember thinking that I didn’t have much longer to live... little did I realise that I’d still be here 20 years on,” Mrs Craig laughed. In 2008, she moved to Nhill, where she lived in one of the Monomeeth units before deciding in 2010 she needed a larger abode. “It seemed possible that I could be around for a while longer, so I registered my interest in a two-bedroom unit and was fortunate to get it,” Mrs Craig said. She quickly involved herself in the Nhill community, joined Senior Citizens, continued to support a cancer group, attended the Uniting Church, joined Nhill RSL and Vision Australia, became part of West Wimmera Health Service’s day care group and greatly enjoyed the resurgence of interest in the Nhill aerodrome and Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre. Mrs Craig’s gracious personality, quick wit and friendliness has endeared her to many people throughout the years and there are many who call her a friend. She is, however, quick to point out that people have been friendly and kind to her – particularly those involved in Legacy.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Eye on the prize

SIR, – This week the Melbourne Cup has been in Horsham. Not the race, but the prize. The beautiful, golden trophy has its own personal security guard and must be held and displayed in a certain way. In Australia, it is the ultimate prize for riding the quickest horse in the land. The AFL has their own trophy, which is up for grabs on Saturday. The coveted premiership prize has been a motivation for striving players, clubs and loyal supporters throughout the past nine months. Our community has been on a similar journey, although our prize is a little bit harder to define. Our families have certainly put in ‘the hard yards’ and the challenge is not over yet with this insidious, infectious corona-

virus still shadowing our lives. However, I would be confident that if, and when, a similar event that happened last week in Shepparton, occurs in the Wimmera, our response would follow the example set by our cousins in Shep. An amazing 6000 tests completed in a matter of days to track down the spread. Our health professionals, aged care workers, police officers, school teachers and the many supporting agencies deserve our ongoing appreciation for both what they are doing and their preparations for what might need to be done. Our local businesses, large and small, continue, where and how they can, to fight with innovation, pluck and vision. And the ongoing local retail trade support is vital.

prayers and encouragement at this time. Our young people. Over the next few months, many of our young people will be doing exams andor making important decisions to create pathways for their future. A message for them... ‘Be confident and encouraged by the fact that your community is proud of you and your achievements this year. You are on the hallowed turf and we are in the grandstands cheering you on. Do your best, keep an eye on the prize and press forward with goal-focused progress, one step at a time.

Vignerons honoured by ‘shock’ win BY SARAH MATTHEWS

bout 20 years ago, Armstrong wine-grape growers Andrew and Katrina Toomey decided they would try their hand at producing wine of their own.

A talented viticulturalist, Mr Toomey had helped many Grampians growers with advice and vineyard management, so a foray into winemaking was a natural progression. Sometimes it was a success, other times it was poured down the sink. About five or six years ago, the couple decided to pursue the passion more seriously, engaging internationally renowned winemaker Adam Richardson to craft wines from small parcels of their vineyard’s finest fruit – and it has sure paid off. Miners Ridge Wines is the toast of this year’s Western Victorian Wine Challenge. The competition, now in its 11th year, showcases some of the region’s best wines, judged under wine show conditions by esteemed wine critics. The challenge has continued to grow in prestige and enables winemakers from western Victoria’s four winemaking regions – Grampians, Pyrenees, Henty and Ballarat – to gain feedback and recognition for their work. Miners Ridge Wines won three trophies for its 2018 Miners Ridge AT Shiraz: Judges Best Wine of Show, the Kym Ludvigsen Memorial Award and best shiraz. The Toomeys are still coming to terms with their victory, which Mrs Toomey said was beyond their wildest dreams. “It came as a big shock – we were

RIDGY-DIDGE: Miners Ridge Wines’ Katrina and Andrew Toomey are celebrating success in the 2020 Western Victorian Wine Challenge.

open fermenting and basket pressing to ensure premium quality. Miners Ridge does not produce each variety annually, with some varieties made every other year. Like all businesses, the Toomeys’ has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. They have had to shut the tasting room several times, along with a bed and breakfast set up on the property. “We weren’t able to operate for a while because of restrictions and of course now, we are still restricted as to who is allowed to stay here,” Mrs Toomey said. Development plans were put on hold while the couple looked to grow the winery’s online presence. “We’ve taken a bit of time to get our heads around it all,” Mrs Toomey said. “Obviously with the pandemic you

Development

The Toomeys have been working hard to develop their wine operation and opened a cellar door last year. “We love welcoming people and telling our story, sharing information about our wines,” Mrs Toomey said. “Ours isn’t necessarily a regular tasting room, like some of the ones we’ve visited. Ours is very relaxed – sometimes too relaxed, because we’re so busy talking to people that we forget we’re supposed to be telling them about the wine they are tasting.” Miners Ridge Wines produces two shiraz varieties, two rieslings, a cabernet and a chardonnay. The wines are produced using traditional methods of hand harvesting,

very pleasantly surprised,” she said. “We hadn’t won a trophy before this so to win wine of the show, plus the Kym Ludvigsen award, was not something we had ever envisioned – ever. “It is a huge honour.” The 2018 Miners Ridge AT Shiraz was made from grapes grown on the ‘house’ block, which Mrs Toomey said consistently grew premium fruit each year. The wine boasts ‘rich and intense flavours of blackberry, cassis with hints of black pepper and chocolate-liquorice. Fruit flavours balanced by long finish and fine tannins that will further integrate with age. Peppery spice with red cherry and blueberry dominate with silky tannins that persist’. “We are only a small vineyard, making about a tonne at a time,” Mrs Toomey said. “We only made 35 cases of the wine that won the award – now I wish we made more.” Mrs Toomey said although the wine of show trophy was the most prestigious, the Kym Ludvigsen Memorial Award held a special place in the couple’s heart. “Kym and Andrew were great mates,” she said. “When he passed, we took on his vines from his wife. We make one shiraz from our house block and the other from ‘Kym’s block’. “Andrew actually helped Kym establish his vineyard – so the whole thing was pretty special. “Even though that wasn’t the major award, it just means the world to us.” The award, honouring the muchloved grape grower, vigneron and in-

So, we concentrated on upgrading our website and adding an online store. “It is very competitive though, because everyone is selling online at the moment. We’re only a small winery – it’s just Andrew and I – and there are a lot of bigger, established ones selling online as well.” While sales have been affected, the growing side of the operation is progressing well. “We’re predominantly grape growers and we sell to other wineries,” Mrs Toomey said. “We haven’t had too much trouble apart from having to follow a few regulations – the grapes don’t stop growing because there is a pandemic in the world.” People can visit www.minersridge. com.au or search Miners Ridge Vineyard on Facebook for more information, including opening hours. • Other 2020 Western Victorian Wine Challenge trophy winners: Most successful winery, Taltarni vineyards; most successful region, Grampians; sparkling wine, Taltarni 2015 Brut; riesling, Montara 2018 Old Vine Riesling; chardonnay and other white, Dogrock 2019 Degraves Road Reserve Chardonnay; rosé, no trophy; pinot noir, Montara 2019 Home Block Pinot Noir; cabernet sauvignon, Glenlofty 2017 Original Cabernet Sauvignon; other reds, Grampians Estate 2019 Grenache; museum white, Grampians Estate 2005 Riesling; museum red, Montara 2010 Chalambar Road Shiraz; wines of provenance, Grampians Estate 10,12,17 St Ethels Shiraz.

A picket fence surrounding a sports oval is the latest project in a continuing effort to develop Natimuk Showground. Natimuk Agricultural and Pastoral Society hopes to install a new oval picket fence in time for a combined celebration of the 130th Natimuk Show and 150th Back to Natimuk celebrations. A white picket fence surrounding the reserve has been a long-term dream of society president Robert Rogers and committee member Ken Hateley had the same idea. The society has launched a community moneyraising effort to build the fence. People can buy pickets for $100, which includes a plaque with their name and logo of choice. Alternatively, families can buy a panel of 13

pickets for $1300 with the cost including plaques and a free family name across the top of the panel as well as a choice of logo per panel. Society secretary Judith Bysouth said buyers did not have to fill in a family panel at the time of purchases. “Family names can be added in the future,” she said. A sample of the picket and panel will be on display at Natimuk Farmers Market Plus at Natimuk Showground on November 1. The society hopes to raise enough money to enable construction in early 2021. Mrs Bysouth said people keen to know more could call 0429 328 600. A similar project has transformed Coughlin Park in Horsham.

rural paramedic is confident the reactivation of a mobile app will ‘significantly’ increase the survival rate of people who experience cardiac arrest across the Wimmera-Mallee.

Hindmarsh-Yarriambiack paramedic community support co-ordinator Kim Hayes is encouraging residents to keep an eye on their GoodSAM, Smartphone Activated Medic, app. Late last week, Ambulance Victoria reactivated the app in regional Victoria. GoodSAM connects responders to patients in those first ‘critical’ minutes of cardiac arrest while paramedics are on the way. The app has been switched off since March to mitigate the risk of spreading COVID-19. It remains switched off across Melbourne municipalities. Ms Hayes said first responders who used the app were an additional resource for rural and remote ambulance services. “As we don’t have the same ambulance numbers in rural regions as

metropolitan Melbourne, GoodSAM is pivotal to increase the survival rate of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest,” she said. “Every second counts. If we can get the community to sign up, we’re giving people the best chance of walking out of hospital.” Ms Hayes said every moment a person experiencing cardiac arrest was without CPR, the chances of survival was significantly reduced. “For every minute there’s no lifesaving intervention, there’s about 10 percent less chance of that person surviving,” she said. “Community support in imitating the ‘call, push, shock’ method – calling triple zero, pushing on a person’s chest to perform CPR and shock, using an AED before we arrive – is vital.” Ms Hayes said GoodSAM responders would be directed to perform compression-only CPR and were advised not to give ‘rescue breaths’. “Responders have to put on a surgical mask and when they get to the scene, we ask them to put a mask or a face covering on the patient. If the

responder has gloves, wear them, and safety glasses as well,” she said. “Hands-only CPR and no mouth-tomouth is required. When paramedics arrive on scene, leave the scene immediately and practise safe hygiene. Clean your glasses, dispose of your mask and gloves and ensure you wash your hands appropriately.” Ms Hayes said the return of the GoodSAM app was timed with a donation of AEDs to communities across the Wimmera and southern Mallee. Ambulance Victoria donated AEDs to towns including Murtoa, Tarranyurk, Beulah and Donald. “Murtoa has been designated as a ‘heart-safe community’ and it has received two AEDs, one at the Stick Shed and another at the museum. They’re all registered and ready for use,” Ms Hayes said. “When GoodSAM goes off, that means the app can alert you to the where the nearest AED is and potentially pick that up before you go to the scene. GoodSAM is totally voluntary and there are psychologists available after you go to an event.”

Colourful and ‘crazy’ at hostel Staff at a Grampians residential care home swapped their uniforms for ‘crazy’ costumes in a colourful display to brighten senior residents’ day during the COVID-19 pandemic. East Grampians Health Service’s Garden View Court hostel staff decked out the health service’s dining room with colourful tablecloths, streamers and balloons and blasted music down the corridors last week. Garden View Court manager Maree Fraser said

residents sang and danced along to music while they enjoyed the company of staff sporting their ‘whacky’ outfits. “Many of our residents have been staying home and have not been able to go out for some time, or might not have had a lot of visitors due to COVID-19 restrictions, so we thought this was a way of brightening their day,” she said. “Some of our residents even got into the spirit of the day by dressing up too.”

As we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 Pandemic, it’s good to remember we’re #StrongerTogether.

Emergency Preparedness With the warmer temperatures and the arrival of spring causing grass and plants to grow rapidly, now is a timely reminder for everyone to be thinking about their emergency preparedness planning for the upcoming summer. With La Nina being announced by the Bureau of Meteorology, this summer will likely be wetter than last year, however it is still vital that all residents consider what preparations need to be made to reduce the risk of fire. To prepare for fire season, Council officers will be moving through the municipality to identify potential fire hazards and work with our residents to mitigate the risks of an emergency. We can all do our part and work together to secure the safety of ourselves, or families and the wider community by being prepared. When preparing for emergency season, some things to consider are: • Keeping the grass on and around your property to a low and neat level • Collecting and removing leaves, small branches and other fire catalysts from your property • Cleaning out gutters of any leaves or debris • Talking with your family and making sure you have plans in place in the event of an emergency Some useful resources to assist with planning for emergencies can be found here: • Emergency Preparedness – Australian Red Cross - https://www.redcross.org.au/prepare • Bushfire Preparedness Plan – Country Fire Authority - https://www.cfa.vic.gov.au/plan-prepare/your-bushfire-plan • Flood & Storm Preparedness and Planning – Victorian State Emergency Service - https://www.ses.vic.gov.au/web/www/get-ready/floodsafe/how-to-plan-andprepare-for-floods

The who, what and when for face masks Who must wear a face covering? Everyone should wear face coverings, with a few exceptions such as: people with disabilities, respiratory issues, and children under the age of 12. What is an acceptable face covering? Some coverings that were originally given a concession, such as face shields, bandanas and scarves will no longer be deemed a suitable face covering. Accepted face coverings include cloth masks, surgical masks and N95 grade masks. When do I need to wear a face covering? If you are not a part of the exempt group, you need to wear a face covering at any time you leave the house. With the following exceptions: • In the car by yourself or with members of your household • When eating, smoking, or drinking • When doing rigorous exercise (E.g. running not walking) • When communicating with people hard of hearing, however 1.5-meter distancing must be maintained. • If your work requires communication to groups, such as teachers • If your work makes it unsafe to wear a face covering Even when doing these activities outside the house it is still required that you carry a face covering when you are in public. For information on safely wearing a face covering, visit the DHHS website: https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/face-masksand-coverings-covid-19

ping m a c A state finalist

ON THE BALL: Warracknabeal lawn bowls star Josh Barry is ‘humbled’ to be a finalist for a male sportsperson of the year award. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

BY DYLAN DE JONG

f anyone had the secret to staying at the top of their game, it would be the Wimmera’s Josh Barry.

Barry is well-known in his home town of Warracknabeal for trying his hand at just about any sport. But one sport in particular has stuck with him since his junior years – lawn bowls. The dedicated lawn bowler and all-round sports fanatic is one of three finalists nominated for ‘male sportsperson of the year’ in this year’s Victorian Disability Sport and Recreation Awards. The awards celebrate the achievements of sportspeople with a disability, the coaches, organisations, officials and volunteers who support them and the inclusive sport and recreation sector across Victoria. The winner will be announced at a virtual event on December 3. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic stopping his ‘tireless’ training schedule this year, Barry said he still had big plans for the future. He said he was hoping to qualify for 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. “Hopefully I will get picked for the games – there’s four in the squad at the moment, but the criteria might change between now and 2022,” he said. Barry has represented Australia in bowling team Jackaroos in the Cerebral Palsy World Games Australia for many years, travelling across the globe to compete against the world’s best. “I’ve been to England four times and played in America, South Africa, Scotland and Wales,” he said. “I’ve been in the Jackaroos squad since 2013, but I haven’t made the Commonwealth Games yet.”

This year would have marked 20 years Barry had represented his state as a part of Victorian Physical Disability State Side. Before the pandemic, Barry would travel from his home town to Melbourne’s outer suburbs every Thursday to train with his team at Deer Park Bowls Club. And every Saturday and Sunday he would compete on game day before returning home late Sunday, just to repeat the same tight training schedule again. “I’d spend five hours travelling down on a Thursday. It was a three-hour bus ride and two train rides just to get to the station – then another 1.6-kilometre walk to the club,” he said. “I was playing Saturdays and Sundays in Melbourne and when I was in Warracknabeal I’d practise either Monday or Tuesday night too. “I haven’t done too much training this year, but hopefully I can get back into competitions soon.” This year also marked Barry’s 27th year playing lawn bowls. His love for the sport sparked from humble beginnings when in 1993, aged 12, he would watch his grandmother and grandfather playing games at Warracknabeal Bowls Club. “I used to live across the road from the bowling club and sit on the fence and watch them play,” he said. “They eventually invited me in, and I started playing. I’ve got my grandmother’s old bowls from when she turned 80. “I’ve always liked sport – I’ve played football since I was six and basketball since seven. Sport was always in my family. I still play for All Abilities Football and Netball Club Wimmera Whippets and I’ve played five different sports for Victoria for the past 20 years. “But after juniors, I just stayed in bowls.”

Reminder to register burns As Wimmera community members clean up their properties in preparation for the Fire Danger Period, Country Fire Authority leaders have urged residents to register their burns. Acting chief executive Eddie Lacko encouraged residents to call the Burn-off Notification Line on 1800 668 511 before lighting fires on their properties. He said along with registering burns, residents needed to check and follow regulations or laws set down by their local council. He said a burn-off might include anything from small piles of leaves and twigs to large areas of open grass. “It reduces the chances of CFA brigades being called out unnecessarily if a member of the public calls about smoke or a fire in the area,” he said. Wonwondah Fire Brigade captain Jason Pymer said although the Fire Danger Period was still to be introduced, residents should be aware of weather conditions and considerate of the time given by volunteers in protecting the community. “We’re appealing to people to please register your burn-off, bon fire or even when you’re burning piles of debris from cleaning up under trees,” he said. “Our brigade is regularly called out to small fires lit by property owners doing the right thing cleaning up their properties. By calling the Burnoff Notification Line and registering your burnoff, volunteers can enjoy their spare time instead of attending unnecessary callouts.” Mr Pymer added people should never leave a burn-off unattended, because it was the resident’s responsibility to ensure it did not get out of control. “If a burn-off does get out of control, call ‘triple zero’ immediately,” he said. “People should have a fire plan and prepare for the event of fire, and never be complacent.” Tips to keep your burn-off safe and legal: • Check fire restrictions with your local council and register your burn on 1800 668 511. • Check and monitor weather conditions. • To avoid unnecessary calls to emergency services, notify your neighbours beforehand. • Leave a three-metre fire break, free from flammable materials, around the burn. • Have sufficient equipment and water to stop the fire spreading. People can visit cfa.vic.gov.au/burnoff for more information about burning off.

Family buzzing with pride Infrastructure investment BY SARAH MATTHEWS

Douglas family business is continuing to thrive despite challenging economic conditions, attracting a slew of awards for its natural skincare and premium honey products.

Beetanicals – the brainchild of busy mother Tanya Stanley and her third-generation bee-keeping husband Warren – has reeled in 15 awards for 2020, in its third year of operation. Beetanicals has won recognition at national and global level, including Organic Beauty Awards and Beauty Shortlist Mama and Baby Awards. Its latest accolades came courtesy of last month’s AusMumpreneur Awards, which celebrate and acknowledge the outstanding achievements of Australian mothers in small business. Mrs Stanley was runner-up in the Emerging AusMumpreneur of the Year category and collected bronze in the hair and beauty category. Winners and placegetters were announced during a livestream online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beetanicals products combine sustainable beeswax from the Stanleys’ hives with Australian Natives botanicals and essential oils. The Stanleys launched their first 100-percent natural, toxin-free skincare products in 2018 after three years of research, ingredient sourcing and product testing. Mrs Stanley – who juggles running a business with living remotely and raising sons Cooper, five, and

ACCOLADES ROLLING IN: Douglas’s Stanley family is enjoying a wealth of success for its Beetanicals natural skincare and premium honey products. The family is celebrating success in the 2020 AusMumpreneur Awards, which recognise the outstanding achievements of Australian mothers in small business. Tanya and her husband Warren are pictured with sons Cooper, left, and Toby. Toby, two – said she was extremely humbled by the awards, especially during such challenging times. “I feel so honoured and grateful for our family business, in which we have poured our heart and soul, to receive this type of recognition,” she said. “For me, it’s not so much about winning the awards as it is helping to shine more light on our business so that many more families can benefit from our products, and work towards our mission of being a household name in the Australian natural wellness space.

“These awards are for my husband, Warren, and our boys, Cooper and Toby, as well. “Without them, this business wouldn’t be possible. It is truly a family business.” Mrs Stanley said the saying, ‘When you buy from a small business, an actual person does a little happy dance’ was true. “I smile every time an order comes in from our website or from our stockists – no matter how small – as I think about how another family will soon be able to benefit from improved health and wellness by

using our safe, natural and effective products,” she said. “To be recognised for the genuine love and care, time and energy – and most definitely sweat and tears – that have gone into creating Beetanicals genuinely means the world to both Warren and I.” Beetanicals has joined the Click for Vic program, which provides an online platform and free delivery for regional producers. People can search the products online at www.viccountrymarket.com. au in the Grampians and Wimmera section.

Ararat Rural City Council has welcomed Federal Budget investment into infrastructure. Council chief executive Tim Harrison said infrastructure development was one of the main drivers that would help the region recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. “The budget extends the hugely successful Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program, providing additional funding on top of the almost $1.5-million we received from the Morrison government in July,” he said. “This untied funding enables the council to select priority road and community projects to get underway now, securing local jobs to drive our economic recovery.” Dr Harrison said the council would use part of the funding to start a Gordon Street Recreational Reserve project. When completed the reserve will become the first standalone hub for AFL Women in regional Victoria. “Ararat Rural City Council is eager to see many of our people return to work and start to revive our township into a sustainable COVIDnormal,” Dr Harrison said. “Other major highlights of the budget include the Ararat NBN Business Fibre Zone, which will assist in adapting our businesses to the greater reliance on digital communications, accelerated by the pandemic. “This and further investment in the Regional Connectivity Program supports upgrades to telecommunications in areas of high tourism activity and bushfire risk. It also creates opportunities to transform our agriculture sector.” Dr Harrison said much concern through the COVID-19 pandemic had centred on tourism businesses and effects on visitation and revenue. He said the announcement of a new round of the Building Better Regions Fund targeted at new tourism projects would reinforce their economic recovery.

TAKING ACTION: Ararat Rural City Council staff, Greg, front, Paul and Chris, right, are part of a team preparing the region for potential floods in the summer season.

Council reducing risks Ararat council workers are out in force to prepare the municipality for extreme weather events. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the staff regularly cleaned the city’s waterways, drains and catchments to reduce the pressure on drainage systems. “The works team also have completed a range of projects to assist with drainage on our local roads,” he said “This year, council completed a range of verge works across the municipality for better drainage and durability. “The works team has also completed drainage projects in the region, such as on Laby Street, which is already seeing a benefit. “These works will improve the water flow and allow our infrastructure to cope better with floods.” Dr Harrison said residents could minimise flood risks by keeping waterways clean.

“One of the most considerable threats to our waterways is human waste such as plastics, these block our waterways and greatly increase the risk of flooding,” he said. Dr Harrison said residents could also ensure their property was flood-ready by cleaning gutters and removing waste or debris that could block drainage in heavy rain. “We greatly encourage the community to prepare and plan for fire and flood emergencies,” he said. “We need to remember that even with the La Niña event this year, fire is still a risk through our summer season.” The council’s emergency management team is working with the community to ensure all those who are at risk of flood and other emergencies are prepared. A range of resources is available to assist with planning and can be found on the council’s website, www.ararat.vic.gov.au.

Recruitment plan across the region A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

police leader is confident a major recruitment drive in the Wimmera will help police better service remote and rural areas.

In March, Victoria Police announced Horsham and Northern Grampians police service areas would receive 44 additional police within a 12-month period – the most significant number of new police ever provided to the region in one allotment. Superintendent Ian Milner said more than 30 officers had started since July, providing a substantial boost to efforts across the region. “This allows us to provide a more highly visible policing presence in the community,” he said. “It gives us a better ability to be able to hold offenders to account and drive down crime. “Serious offending such as assaults and aggravated burglaries, as well as drug offences, will remain a focus, as will high visibility policing operations, including in more remote areas.” Twenty-six frontline constables have started at stations across Dimboola, Edenhope, Horsham, Kaniva, Nhill, Ararat, Halls Gap, Hopetoun, Murtoa, St Arnaud, Stawell and Warracknabeal, while four new sergeants have begun at Horsham and one at Ararat. Mr Milner said having additional members, particularly in remote and rural areas, would allow police to respond to crime in a timely manner and connect with their communities. “The Horsham and Northern Grampians area covers more than 40,000-square kilometres and comprises six local government areas,” he said. “These additional resources allow for dedicated tasking and operations targeting crimes that are having the most impact on our community. “There’s also a number of 16-hour stations that have a minimum of one sergeant and two other ranks. With the influx of members to the division it’s going to allow us to provide a more focused response to those remote locations. “People living in remote areas are just as important to us as people in large rural centres such as Horsham, Ararat and Stawell.” The recruitment drive is part of a Victoria Police plan to upscale its workforce in 2020-21, which includes more than 350 frontline police bound for regional areas. Six more officers are set to join the Northern Grampians Police Service Area across Ararat and Stawell by December, with five more starting in early 2021 across Horsham and Stawell. In addition, two criminal investigators are also due to start in the next few months and will work across the whole division.

Celebrating rural women

Dimboola Police Station officer in charge sergeant Veronica Dempsey is hoping a new era of policing in the Wimmera with women at the forefront will encourage women to pursue opportunities in Victoria Police. Her comments came during International Day

Dimboola Sergeant Veronica Dempsey of Rural Women on Thursday last week. Officers from across Victoria Police’s Western Region Division Four, which includes Nhill, Dimboola, Horsham and Kaniva, enjoyed a COVID-safe morning tea to celebrate the day. “I’m hoping women within our smaller rural communities can see the many different options that VicPol pose as a career,” Sgt Dempsey said. “Women in rural communities can feel isolated because of that tyranny of distance. “We’re so far away and sometimes they might not be sure where to get that sort of information in terms of police recruitment and careers.” Sgt Dempsey said it was important for VicPol to acknowledge all women who chose a career in policing, whether in the regions or in metropolitan centres. “I want to shine a light on that – it’s important to celebrate the role the local women in policing have done in our smaller communities,” she said. “All the bigger metro stations are readily recognised, but it’s not often that we get together as a small group and celebrate the work the women are doing out here.” The officer in charge is at the helm of new era at Dimboola Police Station. Sgt Dempsey works alongside first constable Georgie Schirmer, who started at the station earlier this year. They are the first women to work at the rural 16-hour station. “Prior to that it was an all-male workforce,” Sgt Dempsey said. “Now there’s both myself and Georgie. There’s also been recent appointments at Kaniva, Edenhope and Nhill, with females starting at those 16-hour stations.” Sgt Demspey said a career in rural policing was ‘highly’ rewarding. “There’s so many great moments. I continue to smile every day. You make some life-long friends right from your first day at the academy – at all your workplaces,” she said. “Rural policing is certainly challenging. You need to be resourceful, patient and you’ve got to have good communication skills. You’ve got to think on your feet as every day is different.”

Hopes to bring action back to track BY SARAH MATTHEWS

orsham and District Racing Club leaders are hoping COVID-19 restrictions will further ease to allow patrons to attend the club’s annual Santa Day race meeting.

The club hosted Sunday’s Millers Horsham Cup meeting without crowds and president Jason Merlo said even though the day was successful, it was tough going. “It was very hard without the crowd – the atmosphere just wasn’t there,” he said. “We were lucky to have a couple of owners at the track who had the winning horse in the cup. “They were very happy and it was great to see that. “But they weren’t allowed to come into the ring and we couldn’t present the trophy to them, which was a bit disappointing. “But overall the day went well. We had good fields and it was quite a nice day, weather wise. “Now we’re just hoping we’ll be able to have people back on track for the Santa Day races in December. “We should know in the next two to three weeks what we can do, depending on the restrictions. “Country Racing Victoria is updating us every week with our COVID regulations, so things have been changing a bit.” Mr Merlo said the club welcomed an easing of restrictions on jumpouts at the Horsham track. “Previously we’ve only been allowed to have horses from Horsham and Stawell, but this week we’ve

been able to have horses from Swan Hill and Hamilton,” he said. “Austy Coffey brought down a few runners from Swan Hill, which was good.” Although racegoers were not allowed trackside, they could watch the action unfold on television.

Social scene

Horsham’s Exchange Hotel hosted a ‘Horsham Cup in the Beer Garden’ event, with limited numbers, allowing people who would usually attend the cup to get dressed up and watch the races. They were treated to an eight-race card, headlined by the $60,000 Millers Horsham Cup. South Australian gelding Andrea Mantegna claimed the feature race for Goolwa trainer David Jolly, with Michael Rodd in the saddle. Horsham jockey Dean Yendall was runner-up by a long neck aboard Royal Performance for Lindsay Smith. McKenzie Creek trainer Paul Preusker had a good day out, triumphing with Lowanna Magic in a maiden plate and Lord of Darkness in a benchmark-64 handicap. He also scored three minor placings, but it was his star stayer Surprise Baby that drew the most attention. The New Zealand-bred six-yearold gelding – bought for $5500 at an online auction in 2017 – is among the favourites to take out this year’s $8-million Melbourne Cup at Flemington on November 3. Surprise Baby, which finished fifth in the ‘race that stops the nation’ in 2019, did an exhibition gallop

It’s very exciting.” • Upcoming Wimmera country cup meetings include St Arnaud Cup, Sunday; Ararat Gold Cup, November 8; Donald Cup, November 15; and Nhill Cup, December 26. Stawell’s Christmas race day is on December 5 and Horsham’s, December 20.

Service reaches ‘sight’ objective W

est Wimmera Health Service has reached its $70,000 fundraising target to replace an optical biometer or eye-measuring machine used in its ophthalmologic surgery service.

The equipment provides a highly accurate and non-invasive method for measuring the anatomical characteristics of the eye. Nhill Lions Club members Ken and Jean Schultz, representing ISPT Super Property, presented a cheque for $10,000 to health service chief executive Ritchie Dodds. The couple’s son Darren is chief financial officer of ISPT Super Property, which holds investments of about $19-billion in Australian property for industry superannuation funds. ISPT chief executive Daryl Browning and a community committee endorsed the contribution knowing it would help restore and maintain eyesight and enhance people’s quality of life throughout the northwest Wimmera. Mr Schultz said Darren was unable to present the cheque due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. “We all know how important it is to have and maintain good eyesight,” Mr Schultz said. “We’re glad we’ve been able to help out in this way and for the Lions to be involved as well has put the icing on the cake.” Nhill Lions Club also contributed $5000 to the cause.

“We all know how important it is to have and maintain good eyesight”

– Ken Schultz

Club president Malcolm Pye and past president Lindsay Blackwood were on hand to present their cheque to Mr Dodds. Mr Pye said he was pleased to make the presentation on behalf of the club and proud to partner with ISPT to make a ‘real and lasting’ difference to the health of the community. “Our Lions Ladies group recently disbanded and they could think of no better way to make use of their remaining funds,” he said. “With that money and from our other fundraising efforts it’s allowed us to make a very meaningful contribution.” Mr Dodds said the service was grateful for the generosity of both ISPT and Nhill Lions Club. “And we really appreciate the part played by the Schultz family in bringing ISPT and the Lions together in this way,” he said. “The combined donation of $15,000 has put us just above our fundraising target for this campaign, so we’ll now acquire the new equipment. “And we also sincerely thank everyone who has donated to the campaign over the past six months. “Our visiting eye surgeon Dr Mark Chehade and his dedicated team will be very happy with this outcome.”

SUPPORT: Wimmera Cancer Centre palliative care nurse Catherine Finlay shows the new portable ultrasound to Horsham Apex Club members Michael White, left, and Brendan Cole.

Portable ultrasound donation The level of comfort for patients receiving treatment at Wimmera Cancer Centre will be enhanced thanks to the generosity of Horsham Apex Club. The service club has donated a portable ultrasound machine, which will be particularly significant for patients on dialysis treatment. Wimmera Cancer Centre manager Carmel O’Kane thanked Apex members for their support. “This is a portable machine and it will get plenty of use,” she said. “Previously if our dialysis pa-

tients had vascular issues, they would have to go to Melbourne, but now we can troubleshoot them here. “For our cancer patients, it means we will be able to find difficult veins much easier and quicker.” Ms O’Kane said Wimmera Health Care Group had been overwhelmed by the level of community support for the cancer centre since it opened in early 2019. “The generosity of the Apex club is another great example of that support and having access

to the latest equipment is a huge benefit to our nurses and medical team,” she said. Horsham Apex member Michael White said his club was keen to provide support for the new centre. “All of our club members have had family or someone close who has been affected by cancer, so this was an easy choice for us,” he said. “We just thought this was the best way we could support our community.”

Economic update

OVID-19 remained the big story of the last quarter.

Tragically, by the end of September the pandemic had caused more than one million deaths. That was up by 500,000 since the end of the previous quarter, and many countries were experiencing devastating ‘second waves’. While most of Australia managed to keep case numbers of coronavirus at very low levels, Victoria provided a case study in the severe human and economic impacts of having the virus escape control. Now it is epidemiologists, rather than economists, that we look to for advice on how to transition to a post-pandemic world.

Unemployment ups, downs

The official unemployment rate from the Australian Bureau of Statistics was 7.5 percent in July, but showed a welcome drop to 6.8 percent in August. Meanwhile, NSW claimed that 70 percent of jobs initially lost in the pandemic had been restored. However, when JobKeeper, people working zero hours but classified as employed, and a big jump in gig workers are taken into account, the real unemployment rate is much higher. Roy Morgan estimated the actual unemployment rate was closer to 13.8 percent and the combined unemployment and under-employment rate was 22.8 percent. Still, both these figures were down from their peak in late March.

Property problems

The major property markets of Sydney and Melbourne declined for the fourth month in a row, with the ABS reporting in the June quarter these major city housing markets dropped by 2.6 and 2.8 percent respectively. And the outlook for housing construction is none too rosy. Australia relies on immigration to generate the population growth that stimulates construction and supports the prices of existing dwellings. With our borders effectively closed, that population growth will either be delayed or will fail

to materialise. Rental income is also expected to decline, particularly in markets with a high proportion of overseas students who are unable to return to Australia.

The markets

After a bit of a rally through July and August the local share market ran out of steam, with the S&P 500 index finishing the quarter down by 1.4 percent. International markets continued to produce some excitement. Despite weakening a little towards the end of the quarter, the MSCI All-Country World Equity Index rose 7.2 percent. Much of this was attributable to the US market with the S&P 500 up 7.6 percent and the NASDAQ up 10.2 percent. The Aussie dollar also weakened slightly towards the end of the quarter, finishing flat against the Euro and British Pound, up two percent against the Yen, and up 3.8 percent against the US dollar.

The outlook

If you thought that interest rates could not go any lower, think again. The RBA has flagged the possibility of a further cut in the cash rate with commentators predicting a cut of 15 basis points to take the rate to just 0.1 percent. Internationally, the US presidential election could see an increase in market volatility with the final outcome anything but certain. • The information provided in this article is general in nature only and does not constitute personal financial advice.

INSPIRATION WILD: Quill, by Tony Pridham, features in a new WAMA Foundation online exhibition.

Invitation to explore nature at its best Wildlife Art Museum of Australia Foundation has developed a virtual art exhibition showcasing a broad selection of national and internationally recognised artists inspired by the natural environment. The exhibition, ‘Inspiration Wild: Foundation Artists 6 Years On’ includes the work of 30 artists who featured in WAMA’s inaugural publication of the successful art book, ‘Inspiration Wild: An Artistic Celebration of Nature and Environment’. The foundation artists have come together again to create awareness of both the importance and beauty of nature, Australia’s natural environment and its inhabitants. WAMA patron Glenda Lewin said the exhibition would support the WAMA project to develop a wildlife and art pre-

cinct on the edge of Grampians National Park, Gariwerd. “This exhibition will inspire and enrich people’s appreciation for nature,” she said. “During these uncertain times our connection to nature is more important than ever and WAMA invites you to experience the interconnect between art and nature within this exhibition and see for yourself the talent of these amazing Australian artists.” Wildlife artist and curator Dr Pete Marshall curated the exhibition. Among the artists featured are well-known regional Victorian artists Vida Pearson and Lucy McEachern, along with renowned Australian artists Tony Pridham, Sophie Cape and Noel Hart. Dr Marshall, WAMA Foundation curator and senior art

advisor, said the artists featured in the exhibition ‘drew their inspirations from the natural world in amazingly diverse ways’. To complement these original artists, two indigenous artists have been invited to exhibit their work. Dr Marshall said Paul Bong and Daniel O’Shane were deeply inspired by their culture, ‘telling and recording their cultural stories in intriguing and thought-provoking ways through their art’. People can view ‘Inspiration Wild: Foundation Artists 6 Years On’ online at www. wama.net.au/art-exhibition until November 30. All art works are for sale, with commissions from pieces sold to support the WAMA project.

Santa Fe breaks cover

yundai Motor Company has revealed its new facelifted Santa Fe large SUV ahead of the big seven-seater’s arrival Down Under later in the year, followed by a new hybrid version in 2021.

With power expected to come from the same line-up of engines as the current model, the new Santa Fe will usher in updated styling, enhanced safety features and more standard equipment. In terms of styling, the new model is a far cry from the current Santa Fe, brandishing an all-new, almost full-width rectangular grille, flanked on either side by low-set headlights similar to those seen on the new Kona. Above the headlights resides a slim set of LED daytime running lights, complemented by a second set run-

ning vertically through the headlight arrangement to make a ‘T’ shape. Inside the cabin, HMC has tried to take the Santa Fe slightly more upmarket, swapping out the traditional dash design for a ‘floating console’ in a bid to make the interior feel more spacious. Mounted prominently on the dashboard is a new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while on the top models at least, the traditional gear selector has been replaced with a Genesis-style rotary dial. The materials used within the cabin have been upgraded too – depending on the variant – to now include Nappa leather and ‘eco-suede’ as well as some other high-end materials to be used on trim inserts. While there have been no substantial changes to the seating layout or

dimensions of the car, HMC says the new model offers an extra 14 litres of cargo space thanks to improved packaging. On overseas models, the braking system has been beefed up with bigger discs all-round as well as a new highcapacity booster. To keep everything in check, the ABS-ESC system has also been updated. Under the bonnet of the Australian cars will reside the familiar line-up of powerplants consisting of a 3.5litre V6 petrol engine currently good for 206kW-336Nm and a 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder producing 147kW-440Nm. That said, we expect the updated Santa Fe to boast the same updated versions of these engines as the new Kia Sorento, meaning a new alumini-

um block for the diesel – saving 19kg – and slightly less power produced by the V6 due to a new integrated thermal management system. As with the current model, the petrol engine will send its power to the front wheels while the oil-burner will once again score all-wheel drive. While these engines will arrive here before the end of the year, the same cannot be said for the new hybrid, which has been confirmed to arrive sometime in 2021. Based around a turbocharged 1.6litre four-cylinder petrol engine, the new system will produce a combined 168kW with the electric motor drawing its power from a 1.5kWh lithiumion battery. Drive will be sent to all four wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission.

While the local specification and pricing are yet to be detailed, HMC has added or enhanced some features of the existing Hyundai Safety Sense safety suite – on the US versions at least – including forward collision avoidance-assist with pedestrian, cyclist and junction-turning detection, parking collision avoidance assist with reverse function, updated new highway drive assist system, lane following assist and navigation-based smart cruise control with road curve control. So far this year ending September, Hyundai Motor Company Australia has sold 3480 Santa Fes, accounting for 5.5 percent of the sub-$70,000 large SUV segment. – Callum Hunter

Cadillac hints for Down Under merican luxury brand Cadillac could be set for an Australian introduction under the GMSV banner if recent patent filings from General Motors are anything to go by, with the automotive giant applying to trademark both the Cadillac name and badge locally.

Not only would the move plug a sizeable hole in the local market – especially in the performance sedan segment – it would also expand GMSV’s portfolio considerably, depending on which models it chose to offer here. Ever since production of the V8 Commodore and subsequent HSVs came to an end in 2017, the large performance sedan market has been catered for almost exclusively by the Kia Stinger GT, given the Commodore’s arch rival, the Ford Falcon, went out of production in 2016. The introduction of Cadillac to the Australian market would thrust General Motors right back into the thick of the action with models like the CT4-V and CT5-V, both of which are good for more than 240kW – especially the latter, which develops a Stingerscaring 265kW-550Nm. For reference, the CT4-V is powered by a turbocharged 2.7-litre four-cylinder petrol engine developing 242kW-

ON THE CARDS: General Motors has filed two patents for the Cadillac name and badge.

515Nm while the CT5-V uses a twinturbo 3.0-litre V6. Rumours surrounding the introduction of Cadillac have been swirling for more than a year now with various CT5 prototypes and test mules having been spotted on the roads around Melbourne since the middle of last year. The general consensus is that the CT5 would replace the failed ZB Commodore once supply ran out. The official line from General Motors back in February when a camouflaged CT5 was snapped in Melbourne

was it was undergoing engine management system and transmission calibration, and that GM vehicles from all over the globe were still being brought to Australia for fine-tuning. Holden’s Lang Lang proving ground in the Gippsland region southeast of Melbourne was used for engine and transmission calibration as part of GM’s global product development program, but has since been sold to Vietnamese car-maker Vinfast following Holden’s exit from the market. However, with these new patent fil-

ings, it is looking increasingly likely the CT5 could be offered here with testing in Melbourne being a precursor to the folding of the Holden brand. Despite the growing evidence, GMSV is still downplaying the possibility, instead saying the patent filings were merely security measures against unapproved brand name use and that its focuses lay elsewhere. GM international communications officer Lauren Indiveri-Clarke said it was common practice for GM to secure key trademarks globally.

“GM has several brands registered, to protect them from unapproved usage,” she said. “Given the strong interest, it’s not unusual for some registrations to create excitement. “But we aren’t making any announcements about Cadillac. Our focus is on bringing the Chevrolet Silverado and the Chevrolet Corvette successfully to market.” Apart from the CT4 and CT5 sedans, the rest of Cadillac’s range is comprised of SUVs ranging from the compact XT4 to the borderline gigantic Escalade, with a new generation of the latter due to go on sale in the US later this year. The booming and increasingly crowded SUV segments in Australia arguably offer an even bigger opportunity for GM than the mainstream performance sedan market does, with SUVs accounting for 48.7 percent of all new-car sales so far this year ending September. But while SUVs would undoubtedly make the most sense from a sales perspective, none of them, perhaps apart from the Escalade, have quite the same niche appeal in the current market as a performance sedan as the passenger-car market in general continues to shrink. – Callum Hunter

High-riders the go-to model

he power of the SUV genre has become so magnetic that the high-riders are the go-to model for new-vehicle buyers.

The surge has led to savage sales repercussions for traditional sedans and hatchbacks. In September, the light passengercar segment showed just how buyers are ignoring small, economical and budget-priced new-vehicle transport. Sales for the sub-$25,000 baby hatches and sedans are down 46.3 percent year-to-date and in September, dropped 39.6 percent compared with the same period in 2019. But it’s nothing to do with the size or economy or pricing that is steering buyers away from pint-sized passenger cars – it’s the offerings available in the light SUV segment. Most light car manufacturers now also make light SUVs; a finger in each pie, so to speak. The light SUV segment for the month of September was up 11.4 percent – the only segment to post a positive in a sea of red. That represented 255 extra sales on the same time last year. For the year, it’s 1.4 percent ahead, or 263 more vehicle sales, of 2019 and again, the only segment to show a win in both periods. Once the darling of the new-vehicle

BIG LIFT: Cars like the Mazda CX-3 have helped keep the light SUV segment buoyant in an otherwise down market. market, the SUV segment has fallen into the same malaise as the rest of the market. The total SUV segment is down 14 percent year-to-date and, for September, down 22 percent on 2019. But with its healthy sales, the light SUV sector is keeping the SUV segment – and the new-vehicle market – more buoyant than any other. Its rise to the cream of the industry

happened for a series of events, particularly the new-generation of savvy light SUVs led by the Hyundai Venue, and the withdrawal of light sedans and hatchbacks as manufacturers threw their hands in the air and put their efforts into SUVs. There are 20 light hatchbacks and sedans listed on the market this calendar year to date. As sales dwindled, now only 11

remain as the rest were withdrawn from the market including the Ford Fiesta, Holden Barina, Renault Clio and Zoe, Peugeot 208, Toyota Prius C and Hyundai Accent, with the Honda Jazz and City either gone or on the way out. The light SUV has 13 players including the recent arrivals of the new Ford Puma and Volkswagen T-Cross, while some to leave the showrooms include

the Citroen Cactus, Ford EcoSport, Holden Trax and Renault Captur. There is a new Captur coming next year and the new Citroen C4 expected next year might include a small SUV called a Cactus. One important incoming light SUV is the Kia Stonic – Hyundai Venue platform and similar size – due in Australia later this year. This SUV sector is dominated by the Mazda CX-3 with 51.6 percent of the market and 9825 sales this year. To show how dominant this model is, the second-best is the Hyundai Venue with 14.1 percent of the segment and 2681 sales to date. Buyers get into an SUV because of the assumed safety, it sits higher, flexibility, it is a wagon, and style. Everyone on my street has one, including me. The light SUV satisfies these three parameters and also comes at an affordable price – the cheapest is the Suzuki Ignis at $17,990 plus costs. Pricing is important in any market but especially in the COVID-19 era as buyers seek new vehicles to ensure the security of personal mobility. The sector could further improve sales on the back of future new models but is more likely to retain its strength because of the style and budget-price factors. – Neil Dowling

Mercedes-Benz tinkers with EVs

ercedes-Benz engineers have combined their expertise and know-how in the fields of off-roading and electrification to create a more capable version of its EQC. Somewhat of a Frankenstein concept vehicle, the EQC 4x42 uses a standard EQC400 4Matic as its base donor vehicle, and has fitted a set of portal axles on all four corners to give the vehicle an immense amount of lift and ground clearance. With a massive 293mm of ground clearance, the EQC 4x42 boasts more than double the clearance of a standard EQC and even more than the GClass, which rides 58mm lower.

The revised suspension is attached to the same body mounting points as the standard suspension, however the portal axles sit much wider and lower on the axle hubs than normal, which creates the increased lift. A taller ride height also provides far superior approach, departure and breakover angles – all of which are over 10 degrees more than the standard EQC – while wading depth also increases from 250mm to 400mm. Given the portal axles widen the wheel track as well as increase ride height, 100mm-wide black wheelarch flares have been fitted to accommodate the wider stance. Under the wheelarches sit 20-inch

beadlocked alloy wheels, wrapped in 285/50 all-terrain tyres. The special EQC model features its own unique acoustic feedback and driving sounds, influenced by parameters such as accelerator pedal position, energy recovery rate and vehicle speed. Sound is piped through the EQC’s external vehicle alert system, using its headlamps as speakers. On the surface, the design and engineering exercise might seem like a bit of fun for Mercedes, however it could point towards the future of off-roading for the brand. – Robbie Wallis

HIGH RIDE: Mercedes-Benz’s design and engineering exercise could point to the future of off-roading for the brand.

Ph: 5382 1149 | Email: admin@hdf.com.au FAUX, Bill – The Horsham Fishing Competition Committee is saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. Bill was a former committee member and continued as a strong supporter of the competition in his capacity with the Sunnyside Bowls Club. We send our deepest condolences to his family. Rest in peace.

Dad and I had some great times. I always looked up to him. When I moved into my own place he was sad to see me go, but always called around to see if I was okay. He was the kind of guy who always offered advice, but never expected me to take it. I knew Dad wouldn’t be around forever, and the day I expected to be sad turned out to be a true celebration of his life I’ll cherish forever. I’m so glad I have someone who cared to organise it.

The Blame Game

The story goes, that as a young boy, George Washington was given a little hatchet and in his youthful enthusiasm, took to it, chopping down a cherry tree. When confronted by his Father, rather than trying to find someone to blame, George said, “Father, I cannot tell a lie.” It is said his Father embraced him, rejoicing that his honesty was worth more than a thousand trees. Our culture so often wants someone to blame, to take responsibility for failures or wrong doing. We have Royal Commissions to find out what went wrong, how, why, and who is responsible. In our own State, as I write, one Government Minister has resigned, taking the blame for mistakes. Can you remember as a child, (and perhaps as an adult, too?) blaming someone for something? It is so easy to want to blame someone. And what a relief we may feel when someone else takes the blame. None of us live perfect lives – we fail ourselves and others; we make mistakes. The good news is, there is someone who takes the blame for us. And not only that, but frees us from guilt and shame and gives us a new start. Jesus Christ took the blame for us and all our wrong doing; he paid the price for our mistakes, when he died on the cross. The great news is, he rose again, overcoming us and bringing new life forever. Thank God he took the blame! Susan Pearse - Uniting Church

Possibilities open for Edenhope D

BY DYLAN DE JONG

oorways are opening for motocross enthusiasts at Edenhope following the unveiling of a new pro-level track.

Edenhope Motorcycle Club junior and senior motocross riders had a burn on the newly built 1.7-kilomtere track at the weekend. The event ran without spectators and in line with State Government COVID-19 rules and regulations. Club president Matthew Oliver said up to 50 riders from across the district ‘booked out’ the grand opening event on Sunday. “We had two classes of juniors and two classes of seniors riding,” he said. “We had people aged six through to 60 having a ride.” Mr Oliver said he hoped when the track was fully operational, race meets would serve as a regional drawcard to boost tourism in Edenhope. “The reason we built the track was to bring people into the region,” he said. “People will be calling in to get fuel and supplies and be pulling into the local shops – it should boost the local economy when it’s fully operational.” Mr Oliver said since the club formed in 2018, the number of riders had grown to more than 70 members. “Since we got this club underway in

our local area there’s a lot of people who haven’t had bikes for years who are now getting back into it because of the club,” he said. “There’s a lot of kids that might not have got involved if the club wasn’t there.”

Mr Oliver said although it was exciting to clock up some mileage on the new track, there was still work to be completed. To run state and national motocross competitions, the club will be required to provide toilets and other amenities.

Mr Oliver said the club would be pushing for the final tick-offs from governing body Motorcycling Australia. “The track is built to Motorcycling Australia specifications,” he said. “But we’ve got no facilities out there, so we’ve got to bring out portable toilets and other amenities.” Mr Oliver said he hoped the club could run race meets in 2021.

“We do want bigger events down the track, but we have still got a bit of work to do before we can do that,” he said. “I’d like to see maybe a two-day event once or twice a year where you have practice or qualifying on Saturday and races on Sunday. “But for the moment, there’s a lot of people who are happy to just come and have a spin on the track.”

Third final for Tiger Astbury T

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

atyoon’s David Astbury will vie for his third AFL premiership in four years when Richmond meets Geelong in Saturday’s grand final.

Astbury, 29, was part of the Tigers’ premiership sides in 2017 and 2019 and is looking to help his team-mates claim backto-back flags. Richmond secured its spot in the decider with a thrilling six-point win over Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval on Friday night. Astbury, who played in defence and pinch hit in the ruck, had seven disposals, three tackles, three hit-outs and three clearances. The Tigers and Cats have met once so far this year, in round 17, with Richmond enjoying a 26-point win. The grand final will be decided outside of Melbourne for the first time in AFL-VFL history, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The match – the first all-Victorian grand final since 2011 – will be played at Brisbane’s The Gabba from 7.30pm Victorian time, due to daylight saving hours. Horsham footballer Jarrod Berry missed out on a grand-final berth when his Brisbane Lions outfit went down to the Cats on Saturday night. The former Horsham Saint also im-

pressed at Sunday night’s Brownlow Medal count, polling eight votes, including two best-on-ground performances. But the night belonged to his team-mate, Lachie Neale, who polled 31 votes from only 17 games to win the AFL’s highest individual honour. Neale, who spent his early years at Apsley before moving to a farm at Kybybolite in South Australia, finished 10 votes ahead of Port Adelaide’s Travis Boak. He joined 1954 Brownlow winner Roy Wright to claim the equal biggest winning margin in the competition’s history, since the introduction of the 3-2-1 voting system. Neale, 27, still has family in the Wimmera, including Wimmera Health Care Group executive assistant Alex Neale. Ms Neale told media last week she was ‘anxious’ for her brother, who was red-hot favourite to take out the coveted prize. “He’s always worked hard to make it at the top level,” she said. “Before he was drafted he was told he would never make the AFL because he was too short, so to get where he is now is an amazing achievement and real reward for his efforts.” Other Wimmera players to poll on Sunday night included Sydney’s Jake Lloyd, 3, Fremantle’s Darcy Tucker, 2, and St Kilda’s Sebastian Ross, 1.

No coincidence in Wodonga to Horsham In the second successive weekend of pigeon racing from Wodonga to Horsham back-yard lofts, young birds were outclassed again. Horsham’s Racing Pigeon Club released 156 gold band rung, oneyear-old racing pigeons some 40 minutes before the release of 248 open-aged pigeons on Monday. Typically, these pigeons are bred from selected stock and rung with a gold coloured leg band as sevenday-old youngsters with this race in mind. For the second successive weekend of racing from the same release point, the older more experienced racing pigeons outflew the youngsters by 62 minutes. Consequently, the leading pigeons in the open race returned to their Horsham lofts 22 minutes ahead of the first gold band rung

pigeon despite their later release. This outcome mirrored that of the race the previous weekend, yet with different pigeons entered to those raced at the weekend. In the Wodonga Derby, an open race for young and older-aged pigeons, John Muszkieta’s leading pigeon homed to its loft three minutes and three seconds ahead of the second-placed pigeon, owned by John Aisbett. With one final weekend of racing in the 2020 season, Muszkieta has consolidated his lead in the club aggregate with a win and a fourth and will almost certainly be the club champion for 2020. Muszkieta, along with Aisbett and Leigh Arnott, had pigeons in both races in the leading mobs into Horsham, suggesting their race teams are in good form.

This weekend will be the third and final weekend of racing from Wodonga. Results - Gold Band from Wodonga, John Aisbett’s leading pigeon averaged 55 kilometres an hour, or 916.67 metres a minute, M-M, to win by two minutes from Leigh Arnott’s leading pigeon at 912.35 M-M, with Dennis Smith’s pigeon a further 17 seconds later at 911.17 M-M in third place. Wodonga Derby, 1, John Muszkieta’s leading pigeon completed the race in 5 hours 57 minutes 20 seconds averaging 1066.78 M-M, which equates to 64kmh – basically 9kmh faster than the leaders in the gold band race, 2, John Aisbett, 3 minutes and 3 seconds later at 1057.84 M-M, 3, Leigh Arnott 3 minutes 29 seconds later at 1050.58 M-M. – Brian Watts

Lloyd wins second Skilton medal Horsham premiership player Jake Lloyd has won his second Bob Skilton Medal as the Sydney Swans club champion. Lloyd, 27, finished on 421 votes, 64 ahead of co-captain Luke Parker, with forward Tom Papley finishing third. Lloyd topped the stats sheets with an average of 25.8 disposals, 4.8 marks and 5.7 rebound 50s a game in 2020. He finished first in

total kicks across the competition, second in rebound 50s and third in the league for total disposals. He played in all 17 of Sydney’s games this season, including his 150th AFL game in round 14 at Adelaide Oval. Lloyd joined the Swans through the 2013 rookie draft and soon made his mark, becoming the quickest Swan in history to reach 100 AFL games.

He won his first Bob Skilton Medal in 2018, after finishing runner-up in the award in 2017. Lloyd said he was honoured to be named club champion. “It means a lot,” he said. “It’s something I pride myself on – my consistency – and it’s incredible to think that I have been standing up here a couple of times now.”

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

ast year’s top two Central Wimmera Tennis Association pennant sides will go head-to-head this week in what is shaping to be a highly competitive third round.

Kalkee, coming off a comprehensive win over Homers, 10-92 to 2-51, will travel to St Michaels, which fell short of Horsham Lawn on Saturday by eight sets. Lawn produced an eye-catching victory, 10-88 to 2-52 with Cherie Wood, Tahlia Thompson and Wayne Morrell claiming three sets apiece. Hayden Farlow got the better of his more experienced opponent, Ian Nitschke, in their singles rubber, winning 8-4. Rumour has it Farlow was 3-4 down when he broke a string on his Wilson racquet, but after switching to a new Babolat Pure Strike, did not drop a game for the rest of the set. St Michaels was without Nitschke’s regular doubles partner Peter Hayes at the weekend and will want to welcome him back against Kalkee. The Kees will also look to field a strong line-up as they eye off top spot. They were on fire against Homers, dropping two rubbers for the day, a men’s set in a tiebreaker and a women’s encounter by three games. But for the Kees to lead the competition after round three, they will not only need to win, but hope Horsham Lawn continues

FOCUS: Haven’s Darcy Taberner plays a shot against Homers in A Special action on Saturday. Haven proved too strong for the home side, winning 12-103 to 2-47 to maintain top spot on the ladder. Haven will meet fellow undefeated outfit Natimuk in round three. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER on its winning way against Drung South. Lawn takes scintillating form into this week’s match-up, but the ladder leader is unlikely to give up top spot without a fight. Drung South, 11-94, overpowered Central Park, 1-25, last week, spearheaded by in-form duo Dylan Emmerson and Logan Casey. Matthew Hill shone in the victory, dropping only two games for the day, while Georgia McLennan conceded just four games in two sets. Holly Nuske was a shining light for Central Park, winning her singles rubber 8-6.

Central Park and Homers will look to win their first points of the season when they play at Central Park. Some matches might be contested on other days this week due to interest in Saturday’s AFL grand final. Regardless of when they are played, there are some good match-ups across the board and results could go either way. Pennant ladder: Drung South 8 points, 1100 percent; Kalkee 8, 242.86; Horsham Lawn 4, 166.67; St Michaels 4, 140; Homers 0, 14.29; Central Park 0, 4.35.

Up, up and away Horsham Little Athletics Centre will launch its 2020-21 season tonight after a successful ‘come and try’ event last week. Young sporting enthusiasts, including Archer Lawson, made the most of an opportunity to try a range of track and field events at Dudley Cornell Park. President Nigel Binney said it was ‘tremendous’ to see 40 new athletes at the come and try night. “The kids seemed to have a great time,” he said. “There is always a few nerves, but once they get into the swing of it, there’s no holding them back. We had a lot of parent helpers too. Their support is so vital to running our competition each week.” The 2020-21 season kicks off at the Horsham centre today at 5.15pm, under COVID-safe guidelines. Mr Binney said registrations looked positive. “The numbers are building each day and we’re expecting more than 120 to join by the end of the week,” he said. He said new athletes were still welcome. “It doesn’t matter if you missed the come and try night. You can still come down and be part of the fun,” he said. People can visit website lavic.com.au or email horshamlac@gmail.com for more information. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER
