Wind farm boost BY DEAN LAWSON

eaders of a project involved in constructing up to 117 wind-energy turbines north of Horsham are urging the community to attend public information sessions next week.

Developer RES Australia wants people to ask questions, find out more and have their say at exhibitions in Horsham Town Hall and Sailors Home Hall on Monday, and Warracknabeal on Tuesday. RES Australia, already building a $450-million Ararat Wind Farm, has spent seven years collecting wind-related data from meteorological masts at a Murra Warra site and is now finalising details from extensive array of impact studies. It hopes to submit a planning application for the $650-million to $700-million project to Planning Minister Richard Wynne in June. Project manager Kevin Garthwaite took The Weekly Advertiser on a tour of the area where the turbines and a sub-station would feed enough energy into the power network to power 212,000 Victorian houses a year. With the trademark wind of the Kalkee plains blowing across the flat expanse of broadacre farmland, Mr Garthwaite explained that each of

the turbines would measure up to 220 metres from the ground to the tip of the blades, the equivalent height of the nearby Dooen radio mast. He said each blade would measure 66 metres across an overall span of 136 metres. Each nacelle housing a generator at the top of 140-metre masts will be about the size of large shipping containers. “The increasing height and size of the turbines is becoming quite standard with the development of wind technology,” he said. “We’ve heavily assessed this area and it is ideal for a wind farm of this scale. We’ve been collecting wind data at various levels every 10 minutes and found, based on our experience, that it is highly suitable. There is a low population, the land has already been highly modified and the wind farm will only have a two percent footprint on the land it occupies.”

Consultation

Mr Garthwaite, discussing the project on Dimboola-Minyip Road which runs through a project area also divided between Horsham and Yarriambiack shires, said planning had involved in-depth discussions with landowners. “There are about 18 families involved and we’re working very closely with them. Dis-

cussions are very positive and we often talk with them as a group, which allows for a lot of discussion,” he said. “We’re keen for everyone to find out more about what we’re doing.” The turbines, placed in formation to best capture wind and to reduce wear and tear, would feed power into a substation strategically placed under a main 220kv power-line network running between Bal-

larat and Red Cliffs, splitting the site. “It’s ideal because it’s situated right under the grid, providing direct access. This isn’t often the case,” Mr Garthwaite said. “There will also be a quarry near the sub-station for project works.” With construction of a Murra Warra wind farm taking investment in renewable power generation in the region to

beyond $1-billion, Mr Garthwaite added the flow-on effects and benefits to the community would be significant. He said apart from employment and economic opportunities, wind farms generated significant rate revenue for local government. RES Australia is also committed to providing regional support through a community fund. Monday’s public information

sessions will be in Horsham Town Hall from noon to 3pm and Sailors Home Hall, Murra Warra, from 5pm to 8pm. A Tuesday information session will be in Yarriambiack Shire Council meeting rooms at Warracknabeal from noon to 3pm. Mr Garthwaite said RES Australia planned more project information sessions in the future.

Grape Escape launches into its 25th year Grampians Grape Escape organisers are gearing up for their 25th annual food and wine festival after an official launch in Melbourne.

The April festival is a monthlong celebration of the Grampians region’s best gastronomic producers and winemakers. The Grampians Grape Escape on April 30 and May 1 at Halls Gap, featuring more than 100 provedores and producers as well as beer, wine and cider artisans, is expected to attract a crowd of more than 10,000 wine lovers and foodies. Grampians Grape Escape committee chairman and Northern Grampians Cr Kevin Erwin was thrilled with the festival’s launch last week. “Now celebrating 25 years, the event is one of regional Australia’s longest running food and wine festivals attracting people from all over to our stunning region,” he said. “With a series of fantastic umbrella events leading into the festival weekend, such as Duck, Duck, Mousse at Steel Cutters Cottage, Avoca River Festival, an afternoon soiree at Royal Mail Hotel, Mount Stapylton’s dinner and Pork and Pinot at

He is surrounded by food and wine producers from across the region. Greenvale Farm, the month of April caters for everyone and will be a celebration of the best food and wine from the region.” Headline chef and television personality Miguel Maestre joined Cr Erwin to launch the event.

“We are going to have a great time at the Grampians Grape Escape this year. I’m excited to be headline chef and can’t wait to arrive in the Grampians – a spectacular part of the world – and start cooking up my favourite dishes using some of

the best produce in Australia,” he said. Representatives from several of Grampians producers including Best’s Great Western, celebrating 150 years of winemaking this year, Mount Langi Ghiran, Pierrepoint Wines, Blue Pyrenees Estate, Subrosa Wines,

Ambulance review call

BY DEAN LAWSON

n ambulance union official has echoed the sentiments of Member for Lowan Emma Kealy in calling for an exploration of ways to improve ambulance response times in regional Victoria.

Ambulance Employees Australia secretary Steve McGhie said while there had been a slight improvement overall in response times statewide, there remained ‘a lot of work to be done’. He said an Ambulance Victoria examination into finding ways to establish different responses to emergency and non-emergency situations might help free up paramedics for serious call-outs. “Paramedics respond to many cases through triple zero that often turn out not to be emergencies. This can in turn tie them up for a long time when there might be more serious emergencies they could be attending,” he said. Mr McGhie said in those types of non-

improve this service in rural and regional areas such as the Wimmera, Mallee and Western District,” she said. “Our paramedics and ambulance community officers are working exceptionally hard and doing their very best but they seem to have been forgotten. “In some circumstances ambulance response times have blown out across rural and regional Victoria – in some cases to 29 minutes, almost double the State Government 15-minute target. “Before the election Premier Daniel Andrews promised he would improve response times in Victoria and provide paramedics with the resources they need. But some of the sickest people in country Victoria are waiting even longer for an ambulance. “I just can’t imagine how long that 29 minutes feels for the patient and caller, who must start to think that help will never come, and the paramedics desperately trying to get there in time.”

Victoria Police Homicide Squad detectives are investigating a fatal shooting at Landsborough, near Stawell. Police arrested a man, 21, at a residence on Landsborough-Barkly Road about 7.30pm on Tuesday night following reports a man had been shot. A Victoria Police spokesman said officers found a man, 53, dead at the scene. He said they had to negotiate with the 21-year-old, who was inside the premises. He surrendered peacefully to police about 10.30pm. Police released the man on Wednesday. The spokesman said the man would continue to help detectives with their inquiries.

emergency cases, the idea might be to have a secondary triage system where a paramedic or nurse could redirect private ambulance services to an incident. This would free up services for emergencies. “There are clearly limited resources for such a vast area as western Victoria but while we have some geographical issues, Victoria is a much smaller state than NSW or Queensland and we can clearly have a review of what’s required,” he said. “I know Ambulance Victoria is looking at this and we expect to see a vast improvement in response times within the next six to 12 months.” Member for Lowan Emma Kealy, who has a background in public health services, was more critical of the State Government’s role in the issue. She said there was a simple need across areas of western Victoria to provide paramedics with the circumstances they needed to do their job effectively. “We need to find a way to significantly

Ararat base for Bondys B

ondys Contractors has set up a new base in Ararat in response to additional demand for high-quality electrical, refrigeration and air-condtioning services across the Wimmera.

The business has set up a new showroom at 141 High Street, Ararat, on the Western Highway truck route. Bondys Contractors owner Lachlan Bond said the Ararat outpost complemented the business’s Horsham home in River Road, behind Caltex. “We’ve been operating in Ararat and the surrounding district for quite a while now and we thought it was time to set up a more permanent arrangement,” Mr Bond said. “We have a showroom set up, with plans to expand on the site in the coming months.” Bondys Constractors employs a specialist team that delivers high-quality, affordable electric solutions for domestic, commercial and industrial customers. Mr Bond said he was proud of the reputation his business had built throughout more than 10 years of servicing the Wimmera. “Every job – big or small – is approached with professionalism, a focus on quality, safety awareness and attention to detail,” he said. “We’ve built a solid reputation based on industry knowledge and a commitment to getting the job done right.” Bondys Contractors offers a wide range of services, including air-con-

Mr Bond said it was an exciting time for the business. “During the past decade we’ve continued to evolve our services in response to seasonal conditions, environmental challenges and demand,” he said. “We look forward to helping even more people with their electrical and refrigeration needs in both Horsham

Project to capture wind in the west

proposed west Wimmera wind farm near Nhill will be designed to produce enough electricity to reduce Victoria’s carbon footprint by 150,000 tonnes a year. The figure is the equivalent to taking 29,800 cars off the road. Kiata Wind Farm is the latest multi million-dollar project to join a growing regional power-plant drawing board. RES Australia is building up to 75 turbines at Ararat Wind Farm, and planning another 100-turbine farm for Murra Warra, between Horsham and Warracknabeal.

Enerfin Energy Company is building a 63-turbine Bulgana wind farm near Great Western and Pacific Hydro’s 35-turbine Challicum Hills wind farm, east of Ararat, has been operating since 2003. Australian-owned and Canberra-based wind energy company Windlab, created out of the CSIRO in 2003, is behind the Kiata project. Estimates suggest it would create up to 70 jobs and pump $4-million into the west Wimmera economy and up to $12-million over its 25-year operational life. Kiata Wind Farm project manager Matthew Parton said

the project was in ‘very’ early stages. “We have a lot further to go. We have to get the project approved for a start, establish finance and find a buyer. But it might be that construction starts at the end of this year,” he said. Mr Parton said the farm might involve up to 13 turbines but he would not be surprised if it was less. “Compared with projects in Australia it is small. But it is highly efficient. It will provide enough clean energy to power more than 23,000 households,” he said.

“We try to identify the best projects possible in respect to a range of factors. For a start, we need wind and all of western Victoria has world-class wind resources. “We need to have access to electrical infrastructure, access to roads and, in this case, not too far from the Western Highway. Being set back from population centres is important as well. “What really excites me is that it is bringing a whole new industry to a region. Experience shows these types of projects provide a significant multiplier effect to the community.

“We will seek to maximise the use of local businesses and contractors in the construction and operation of the wind farm. Later this year, we will publish information for contractors to ensure local content can be used wherever possible.”

Power

The proposed Kiata farm will have the capacity to produce up to a maximum of 30 megawatts of energy, the equivalent that 10 cars might generate. Project managers anticipate it producing about 130,000 megawatt hours a year. A megawatt hour is the equivalent to the amount of electricity used by about 330

average houses in one hour. The project site is five kilometres from Kiata and 10 kilometres from Nhill. Mr Parton said while planning remained in infancy stages, Windlab had already started a community grants program in the region. Last year Windlab supported Nhill Air Show, Wimmera Hockey Association, Winiam Cricket Club and Winiam Hall. Windlab was responsible for building a $50-million six-turbine Coonooer Bridge Wind Farm, north-west of Bendigo, which is partly owned by about 30 neighbouring landowners.

AGRICULTURAL AIM: Victorian Farmers Federation members gathered in Horsham early this week to discuss issues related to the grain growing industry. The grains group conference attracted people from across the state. Pictured from left, VFF president Peter Tuohey, vice-president and Murra Warra farmer David Jochinke and grains group president Brett Hosking with Agriculture Minister Jaala Pulford at Horsham Town Hall.

Changes to fuel pricing The State Government has banned the prominent display of ‘misleading’ discount fuel prices at service stations.

The new law to take effect from December. Currently ‘discounts’ offered at supermarketoperated outlets are conditional on motorists also having specific shopper dockets. The Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce, representing more than 5000 automotive businesses across the state, welcomed the law announced by Consumer Affairs Minister Jane Garrett. “VACC congratulates the Andrews government for a far-sighted initiative that will better protect millions of Victorians,” VACC executive director Geoff Gwilym, said. “The new regulations will remove confusion

and ensure clarity for Victorian motorists when filling up at all service stations across this state. Now consumers will know exactly how much they are paying at the pump.” Mr Gwilym said the State Government announcement also created a level playing field for service-station operators across Victoria and allowed independent fuel retailers to compete for business. “Independent fuel retailers will now be able to compete fairly on advertised fuel prices. Having this competition in the fuel retail market is great for motorists and will keep the supermarket operators on their toes,” he said. Stakeholders have until May 30 to review the new regulations. The new system takes effect on 1 December and brings Victoria in line with NSW and South Australia.

News briefs Pulford welcomes kinder changes

Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford has welcomed kindergarten youngsters into the new year and ‘better’ educator-to-child ratios. Ms Pulford said improved ratios meant more individual attention and care for pre-schoolers in the year before primary school. She said the State Government was investing up to $83.7-million to help kindergartens meet new staffing requirements by supporting eligible community-based kindergartens to hire additional staff. “Introduced on January 1 this year, the new ratios will mean one educator for every 11 children – down from one to every 15 – giving kids more individual care and attention,” she said. Ms Pulford said the government was also building and upgrading new and existing kindergartens under its $50-million kinder improvements commitment. She said many kindergartens across the Lowan electorate would benefit from grant money. These included: Murtoa Kindergarten - $7120 for the removal of an old fixture and replacing it with a safe, modern cubby house and decking. Goodstart Horsham, $1500 for two iPads to enhance student learning and for administrative purposes. Goroke Preschool, Kaniva Kindergarten and Edenhope Kindergarten, $1355 each for a desktop and laptop computer for administrative purposes. Dunkeld Kindergarten, $352 to purchase digital cameras. Mitchell Park Kindergarten, Hamilton, $2520 for the provision of shade over a seating area outside a kindergarten building. “In 2016 we are delivering better services and strengthening the quality of our early years services so kids in the Lowan electorate get a great start in life,” Ms Pulford said.

Buns for hospital

Bakers Delight bakeries across Victoria, including Horsham, hope to raise $60,000 for The Royal Children’s Hospital from hot-cross bun sales during their ‘Bundraiser Day’ on March 5. The bakeries plan to bake more than 360,000 hot-cross buns for the occasion and will donate $1 from every sixpack to the annual Good Friday Appeal. Money raised will go towards a new ultrasound machine to provide greater precision for interventional procedures, reduce radiation dose for oncology patients undergoing multiple follow-up studies and shorten scanning times.

Call to replace bridge

Age-related structural damage to a 95-year-old bridge near Lake Albacutya north of Rainbow has prompted Member for Lowan Emma Kealy to call on the State Government to replace the structure. The load limit of Albacutya Bridge was reduced to 24 tonne in January, causing diversions for heavy-vehicle operators. “Albacutya Bridge is a critical link for the community, farmers, gypsum-pit operators, school buses and tourists,” Ms Kealy said. “This bridge is a crucial piece of infrastructure for a rural region already suffering from the ravages of drought.” Ms Kealy led a visit to the area with Opposition Leader Matthew Guy and Opposition environment and emergency services spokesman Brad Battin. During the visit they met Hindmarsh Shire Council representatives to discuss the effect of the reduced load limit on the bridge and the need for replacement.

Countdown to field days

he countdown to the 2016 Wimmera Machinery Field Days has started with the launch of an official bumper program.

The 54th annual Wimmera Machinery Field Days will be on March 1, 2 and 3 at Wimmera Events Centre at Longerenong near Dooen, north of Horsham. In partnership with The Weekly Advertiser, thousands of copies of the field days’ official program are being distributed across the region, giving people an opportunity to gain early insight into this year’s special event. Wimmera Machinery Field Days manager Murray Wilson said the program had been an important field days tradition since 1963, and included all exhibitor listings as well as details on all products available on site. “This year the official program features 80 pages in full colour with information about what’s on and plenty of information about all the special features and key attractions at the field days,” he said. Mr Wilson said the field days was an internationally-recognised event, which played a role in the strength of agriculture in the region. “The request for sites has been strong and proved that even on the back of a challenging growing season, the Wimmera Ma-

PLENTY TO SEE AND DO: Wimmera Machinery Field Days manager Murray Wilson with copies of the event’s 80-page bumper program. Picture: MICK SHANNON chinery Field Days is an event that remains important and relevant, and acts as the first positive step to the next year of rural business,” he said. “More importantly all the major agricultural companies and dealers will be showcasing an impressive display of practically every brand of farming and agricultural product currently on the market.” Mr Wilson said next Wednes-

day was the traditional ‘family day’ of the event. “This year on the Wednesday we have introduced some new attractions as well as some popular concerts and shows in our auditorium,” he said. “It’s great to see so many young kids and families at our event and this year we expect a lot of new faces making the most of our popular attractions as part of field days family day.”

Mr Wilson said there would be plenty of highlights at this year’s field days. “On show will be the impressive entries as part of the 11th annual Victorian Farm Sculpture. A key attraction will be the return of the fearless stunt riders from Factory FMX motocross team who will be leaping over some big farm machinery and putting on a great show three times a day,” he said.

YOUR SAY Sir – Through your column I would like to point out to Member for Lowan Emma Kealy that her predecessor sat on his hands in a safe seat for years. To complain now at a lack of interest by Premier Daniel Andrews does nothing but irritate me. However, I do have another view – on cancer issues. Firstly, I would like to see cancer to be considered as an overall problem and not dealt with in specific terms, i.e., breast, ovarian, prostate. Cancer is a world-wide problem and needs all funding to go into a massive effort to beat his horrible disease. To split funding into various factions will not find a cure. A concerted effort might.

On another issue completely – ‘Ms Kealy looks at railroads’. On this, I would suggest all pollies need to wake up and use the unemployed to rebuild the railways instead of tearing our roads apart with heavy trucks. Dennis De Costa. Dunmunkle Lodge

Politics perception

Sir – One of the main games practised by both sides of politics is to look as if one is doing something rather than actually doing it. The latest example of this is the Turnbull government’s work-for-the-dole scheme, The Age, February 12, 2016. A $340,000 review after only eight months – thank you, say the consultants – found the scheme

only improves job prospects by two percent and it couldn’t tell how many people found work as a result. The scheme is costed at $1-billion over three years and is supposed to cover 150,000 jobseekers a year. The reality is that 52,000 started and more than 20,000 dropped out. It is reported the scheme is getting positive feedback but it mainly relates to unskilled tasks. The government is not worried about this and, according to Employment Minister Michaela Cash, has no intention of finding an alternative. The government is posturing and looking like it is aiding jobseekers. The government knows only too well the real reason for

the poor success of the scheme is that employers are not hiring in sufficient numbers. Aggregate demand in the economy is trending lower than what it should be. There has been jobs growth but there are still more unemployed than at the demise of the last Labor government. How can we prepare our unemployed for the new economy by giving them menial tasks? Rescuing the unemployed is a complex problem. We need to look at best practice around the world, especially in Scandinavian countries, rather than wasting huge amounts of money on a simplistic and ideological solution that is failing.

Chaplain’s mental health mission Sports Chaplaincy Australia motorsports chaplain and mental health advocate Mark Bateman works on the motto ‘a problem shared is a problem halved’.

“What mate worth his salt wouldn’t want to do that if he had the chance?” he said. Mr Bateman will host three ‘Life Care and Suicide Prevention’ sessions in Stawell at the weekend. He will explain how Wimmera residents can help friends and family members doing it tough by looking out for ‘warning signs’. Mr Bateman has helped communities recognise and confront mental health issues for the past 15 years, usually following disasters or critical incidents. “When people’s lives change dramatically and they experience loss it can be the entry point to a life on their own,” he said.

“There are warning signs and it is important people know how to recognise them. When warning signs are not recognised, the situation gets a lot more serious before anyone notices they need support or encourages them to get it.” Mr Bateman encouraged Wimmera residents to attend a public session at Stawell Clay Target Club on Saturday. “Suicide is a community problem and it takes a community to be able to offset it and get on top of the problem,” he said. “We need to look out for our mates.” The information session is at 1pm and entry is by gold coin donation. The presentation will cover a range of topics, including: myths – what is true and what is false; high-risk groups; and support teams and caring for the carer. Mr Bateman has more than 30 years’ experience in pastoral ministry, critical

incident and disaster response, and suicide negotiation. Stawell Church of Christ organised his visit to the Wimmera. Church spokesman Terry Dunn said church leaders were pleased to be able to do something proactive. “Stawell and district is over-represented in suicide statistics,” he said. “We know there is a problem, but we don’t know how to deal with it – that’s where Mark comes in.” Mr Dunn, a Men’s Shed member, will host the first session in his own shed on Friday night. The talk starts at 6.30pm and costs $10, including dinner. Mr Dunn said the session was limited to 40 men and people could call him on 0407 547 417 to book. • If you or someone you know is in need of suicide prevention support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or visit www.lifeline.org.au. MARY AND HER HARP: Storyteller and harpist Christine Middleton will be back at Stawell Entertainment Centre on March 4 to perform her play ‘Mary Queen of Scots’. Stawell Regional Arts is presenting the show after Middleton’s performance of ‘Scones, Lamingtons and Chocolate Roll’ last year. Middleton travelled to Scotland and France in 2011 and followed in the footsteps of Mary, who was not only Queen of France and Scotland, but also an accomplished harpist. Matiss Schubert on violin will accompany Middleton during the 2pm performance. Tickets are available at Stawell Library or at the door for $20.

Region’s new gold rush? I

BY DEAN LAWSON

t would have been hard to predict a decade ago, but renewable power generation appears poised to take its place alongside agriculture as a major primary industry in the region.

While it will struggle to ever rival broadacre agriculture in size and scope, it seems likely to one day play an integral role in Victorian energy production and statewide productivity. It’s amazing the constant wind blowing across the plains in the north and hill-tops in the south-east, for so long an aggravation, might provide the fuel for a new type of western Victorian ‘gold rush’. And, similar to the historic

EDITORIAL gold rush that created centres such as Ararat, Stawell, Maryborough, Ballarat and Bendigo, a challenge as communities will be how to best harness the development for the betterment of the region. Like them or loathe them, wind turbines are part of a global push to harness the environment to create renewable energy and are set to become familiar across our landscape. Horsham Rural City Council minutes from about a decade ago reveal that at the time technological constraints limited the potential of wind farm development in the municipality. How things have changed.

Western Victorian wind is attracting big international companies, now armed with the latest whiz-bang technology, to our part of the world and with them comes a strong whiff of regional opportunity. The developments unfolding in our region reflect much more than a simple opportunism of international companies keen to build a few wind farms. It is about understanding the potential growth in demand for renewable energy. It goes beyond harnessing wind, only one piece of the jig-saw puzzle making up regional opportunity in this field. As well as wind, we also have plenty of sunshine and it stands to reason that if technol-

ogy has developed to a point where we can now harness wind efficiently in the Wimmera, it’s only a matter of time before we do the same with solar energy. And we can’t forget that a battery revolution is starting to poke its nose from beyond the horizon. This particularly applies in a digital world where in many cases, we’re replacing what we traditionally did mechanically, with our hands or with filing cabinets, with clever but power-hungry computer technology. Again, with the source of some of this power set to come from our own backyards, we need to capitalise and regional leaders must be prepared to think creatively.

Rain will not be enough

n independent statutory body trying to buy water for the Wimmera River has warned that even the onset of wet weather this year is unlikely to meet environmental needs of the waterways.

FOLLOW THE LEADERS: Eighteen of the region’s aspiring leaders enjoyed a retreat at Nhill’s Little Desert Nature Lodge as part of Leadership Wimmera’s Regional Leadership Skills program. The program is designed to foster personal and professional growth, enhance and develop leadership skills and promote leadership in the region. The group will participate in a range of workshops throughout the year, along with a visit to Parliament House, Melbourne, in August. Activities during the retreat included team-building exercises, abseiling at Mt Arapiles and personality profiling. Participants also divided into four groups, with each group to deliver a community project throughout the year. Leadership Wimmera – under the auspices of Wimmera Development Association – also runs a Business Leaders Group, aimed at developing effective leaders and improving performance management, strategic thinking and corporate governance skills. Both programs culminate in presentations at a graduation day in October. Pictured after an abseiling exercise at Mt Arapiles on Saturday are some of this year’s Regional Leadership Skills participants, from left, Melissa Powell, Melinda Bottoms, Kylie Camilleri, Rae Stone, Jess Sluggett, Meg Hall, Htoo Kaw Jah, Anna Brown, Julie Flaherty, Jason Kannar, Mary Dalgleish, Di Thomson, facilitator Steve Lacy, Alaine McFarlane, Sarah Scully and Brittany Lawson.

Victorian Environmental Water Holder, VEWH, confirmed it was continuing its hunt for 10,000 megalitres in the region, aimed at providing environmental respite for Wimmera and Glenelg rivers. Both river systems are under increasing pressure from dry conditions. Chairman Denis Flett said the organisation was working with GWMWater regarding the administration and conditions of any potential purchase. “The water availability outlook for 2016-17 is uncertain, but even if it is quite wet, there is still likely to be a shortfall in the water required to meet the environmental needs of the Wimmera and Glenelg river systems,” he said. Mr Flett said considering the dry conditions across western Victoria, VEWH officials understood the importance of all water trading to occur with ‘proper consideration of potential benefits and impacts in the region’. “We have a range of plans for purchased water depending on the amount of water purchased, when it would be available, seasonal conditions and environmental need,” he said. “Overall, watering in the Wimmera

and Glenelg this year has focused on protecting key drought refuges and maintaining water quality. “These plans would be put to work once we were able to confirm the outcomes of any purchase. “We are keen to have a resolution as soon as possible so we can confirm our watering arrangements for the remainder of this year and help with planning into 2016-17.” In December last year, fears that dry conditions might lead to irreversible damage to parts of the Wimmera River triggered an unprecedented bid by the VEWH to buy water for the regional river systems. The VEWH is in charge of the state’s environmental water allocations with the ability to buy and sell water. A long dry period has meant the Wimmera and Glenelg systems have had only seven percent of their annual environmental allocation. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority has been trying to match flows in the Wimmera River, where possible, with community socio-economic events involving the waterway. There are few options open to the water-holder to access water in the region. Mining companies hold some water entitlements and GWMWater has a buffer of ‘carryover’ water in supply. Latest figures showed regional reservoirs holding 139,350 megalitres, 25.02 percent of the system’s 556,895-megalitre capacity.

Veterans’ honour BY SARAH SCULLY

he sister of a Kaniva soldier killed in Vietnam has thanked Wimmera residents for paying tribute to her brother and his fallen comrades.

Linda Andrews travelled from her home at Mundulla to attend a graveside service at Kaniva Cemetery on Sunday. The service, honouring Private Norman Hawker, was one of 35 that occurred simultaneously across the state to pay tribute to 98 Victorian soldiers who died during the Vietnam War. A service at Horsham Cemetery recognised Private James McMillan, a member of C Company, 5th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment. Pte Hawker served in Vietnam with the 7th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment, from April 1967. The Hawker family grew up on a farm at Lillimur. Mrs Andrews said her brother was a typical country boy. “He was a laidback fella who enjoyed hanging out with his mates,” she said. “He was called up for national service in 1966 and he enjoyed it. He made a lot of mates. Then he got called up to Vietnam. “We celebrated his 21st birthday early because he was going to be away.” Pte Hawker died on November 27, 1967, in a fire-fight.

“He was looking forward to coming home, but it didn’t eventuate,” Mrs Andrews said. “He had a full military funeral – it was the biggest Kaniva had ever seen.” Mrs Andrews said her family appreciated the service, because it meant people like her brother were not forgotten. “The 50-year commemoration of Long Tan is important for all the soldiers who didn’t return home,” she said. Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia will host several activities in the lead-up to the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan on August 18.

Bloody battle

The battle, one of Australia’s bloodiest of the Vietnam War, left 18 Australians dead and 24 wounded.. More than 60,000 Australians took part in the war. They are honoured on Vietnam Veterans Day, on the anniversary of Long Tan. Vietnam Veterans Wimmera sub-branch president Ken Taylor said large numbers at Sunday’s services showed there was significant interest in anniversary commemorations. “We had 84 people attend the Kaniva service, and between 70 and 80 people at the service in Horsham, which I think was more than some of the services in Melbourne,” he said. “People came from all over the place, including Gippsland and South Australia.

“I thank all the people who came to make the day such a success, particularly Roger Mines, who did a standout job organising the Kaniva service.” Sub-branch vice-president Barry McClure hosted the Horsham service, honouring Pte McMillan. Pte McMillan died in machine-gun fire and grenade attack on July 31, 1969, during Operation Camden in the Phouc Tuy Province of Vietnam. His sisters, Venie Jolley, Joy Taig and Dianne Bolwell, and their families attended the commemoration at the weekend. Mr McClure said Sunday marked the first time the organisation had attempted simultaneous services state-wide. “We wanted to visit all of the gravesites across the state where our mates are buried to honour their service and sacrifice and to show they are not forgotten,” he said. “Most of them died very young. They never had the chance to marry, to have a family, to enjoy their grandchildren and to grow old as we have, so we assembled at their resting places for a simple service and will carry their spirit with us throughout 2016.” Mr McClure encouraged Wimmera Vietnam veterans who were not part of the region’s sub-branch to call him on 0402 112 715 or email barrym48@bigpond.net.au.

German festival to evolve Positive feedback coupled with the ideas and suggestions of patrons have prompted organisers of a Wimmera German Fest to plan for a ‘bigger and better’ event next year. Event spokesman Peter Daffy confirmed this year’s festival would be at Horsham Showground on October 22. “We had a lot of feedback from patrons from our inaugural festival and as a result we will be making some changes,” he said. “For example, as a family event we will be having a lot more activities for children and we’ll change things around with the food and drinks.” Last year Blue Ribbon Foundation’s Horsham branch

joined forces with Wimmera Health Care Group to re-establish the food and culture celebration in Horsham. The event raises money for the health care group’s emergency department. Mr Daffy said he was thrilled to have MIXX FM return as naming-rights sponsor. “We had just over 600 patrons last year and are looking to continually build on that. The five-year plan is to build it into a major tourism event for the Wimmera that ultimately spreads across a whole weekend,” he said. “The German bands are all coming back and we’ve tentatively booked slap-dancers.” German settlement started in

the Wimmera in the late 1860s when settlers carted supplies to squatters and Ebenezer Mission at Antwerp and returned with wool to Geelong. Parts of the region were home to a significant number of German settlements. MIXX FM, 3WM and The Weekly Advertiser general manager Scott Grambau said the Horsham station was happy to sponsor the festival. “These are the types of functions that fit neatly into our charter of being heavily involved in our communities and celebrating regional culture,” he said. “This event is for the whole family and we’re more than happy to provide support.”

HEALTH HUB: Rural Northwest Health’s community health team will attend the Wimmera Machinery Field Days next week. The team, pictured from left, includes speech pathologist Kelsey Hamilton, social worker Sandy Telfer, physiotherapists Daniel Griffin and Brett Boyle, exercise physiologist Liz Maxwell and continence nurse Amanda Larcombe. They will join representatives from other health services at a Wimmera Primary Care Partnership hub, in the Moore Exhibition Centre. This year’s theme ‘Caring for your Mind, Body and Soul’ focuses on individuals taking a holistic approach to health.

Apprentice skill needs a focus for minister

raining and Skills Minister Steve Herbert has used a tour of education and training providers in Horsham district to discuss the skill needs of apprentices, trainees and students.

ganisations would have struggled to put on apprentices and trainees after the Federal Government axed support for the group training program. “Group training organisations such as Skillinvest play a crucial role in supporting people to develop the skills they need to get long-lasting and rewarding jobs. They often help disadvantaged apprentices and trainees in our community,” he said. “We know strong partnerships between training providers, industry and government, particularly in regional areas like Horsham, are vital to providing a strong skills base for all Victorians. “The Labor government is working to build a better TAFE and training system for all Victorians, after the former Coalition government spent four

During the visit, Mr Herbert met apprentices from group training organisation Skillinvest, one of many training organisations set to benefit from a $9.3-million State Government boost to support apprentices and trainees. Mr Herbert visited the apprentices’ host employer O’Connors Farm Machinery to ‘highlight the strengths’ of Victoria’s hands-on approach to providing quality training for the state’s future workforce. Mr Herbert said without the help of the State Government, Victorian group training or-

years neglecting the needs of TAFEs, especially in regional areas.” Mr Herbert also visited Skillinvest-operated Longerenong College, where he met students and staff and discussed what part the government could play in growing rural and agricultural training to make sure students in the region had support.

Disappointed

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said she was ‘bitterly’ disappointed Mr Herbert’s visit failed to include an announcement of more funding for the next stage of development work at Longerenong College. “Longerenong College received $2-million from state and federal governments in September 2014 to refurbish 108 student rooms, along with

six disabled-access rooms,” she said. “The minister had glowing reports of the redevelopment works achieved through funding by the previous LiberalNational Coalition. “It is disappointing that the minister cannot see the value of continuing with the next project stage and to fund the refurbishment of Longerenong’s agribusiness centre. “Minister Herbert talks about the importance of partnerships to provide meaningful opportunities for local people, yet the Labor government has not offered support. “The Labor government has again failed to provide funding to cement the Wimmera’s reputation as a centre of excellence for agricultural-production training and research.”

Swimming carnivals

Horsham College and St Brigid’s College will have their annual house swimming carnivals at Horsham Aquatic Centre this week. St Brigid’s College will host its carnival on Thursday, while Horsham College’s swimming sports will be on Friday.

Febfast challenge grows Several Grampians Community Health staff members have chosen to give up something addictive in February to improve their long-term health and wellbeing. Wimmera Drug Action Taskforce coordinator Sally Pymer, alcohol and other drugs outreach counsellor Laura Lourensz and alcohol and other drugs team leader Caleb Lourensz have committed to FebFast, a month-long health challenge and fundraiser. The Weekly Advertiser checks in with Mrs Pymer, who is giving up coffee, Mrs Lourensz, who is giving up coffee and sugar, and Mr Laurensz, who is giving up alcohol, to see how they are coping with the challenge.

aura Lourensz: I made it two weeks without sugar or coffee – But not three!

I’ve had two coffees this week and chocolate on multiple occasions. I now have a little insight into the struggles that people trying to quit other substances face, such as the desire to justify ‘just one’, and the obsessive thinking about the next opportunity. There has also been the temptation to give up; now that I’ve had a lapse, the temptation to think, ‘why bother continuing?’ is strong. I find it interesting that I still crave both coffee and sugar, despite the adverse reactions that I have to both; the increase of anxious thinking, my mind racing, feeling jumpy, shaking hands, waking up feeling tired after too much sugar the day before. Nonetheless, there are the positive effects, such as the taste, the serotonin – happy hormone – increase after consuming sugar, the reduction of headaches associated with withdrawal and increased energy. Knowing that I need to go through the initial withdrawal symptoms again if I am to be successful to the end of February is

Laura Lourenz not enticing, but I hope I will be successful for the remainder of the month. Sally Pymer: I discovered I have lost about three or four kilograms by giving up coffee and most sugar and I feel good. Friends and family have commented on my weight loss, along with saying my skin looks clearer and I seemed brighter. Giving up coffee seems to have been fine, but sugar much harder. Being at work about 2pm was a little difficult during the first couple of weeks when I got the ‘post dinner dip’ and felt a little sleepy. Usually I would have a coffee to increase my alertness, so this was difficult.

Getting up and filling my water bottle helped. The feeling of sleepiness passed before not too long. I have found in the past week this hasn’t been anywhere near as bad and I haven’t felt like an afternoon coffee. I did have one day where I really struggled with not eating sugar. The hardest day was actually on Saturday when my husband and sons were playing cricket. I was home by myself and really felt like cooking a nice, sugary slice. I was very tempted for most of the day. To get over it, I got out of the house, went for a swim and then watched the cricket. I also lashed out on a punnet of blueberries, which seemed to help. By the next day I was fine again. It made me really think about what was habit and what foods I really felt like. Caleb Lourensz: Another week down and all has been going well so far. The past week and weekend have been relatively quiet in regards to social opportunities where alcohol has been involved and the working week has been busy. As I said earlier on, I have been focusing much of my attention towards my martial arts training, Krav Maga and Zen Do Kai on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights, and also continuing my gym program at Fuzion Fitness during the mornings. Both are good at keeping me distracted and my mind focused on other things. On Thursday, I had finished getting a massage and my masseur’s partner and friend were having a few beers. That was probably the first and only hurdle of the week – I’m sure if they are reading this and will be having a laugh. It would have been nice to have one with them but I stuck to my commitment of no alcohol for FebFast.

Yurt and felt artists on display at event Western Australian felter and anthropologist Martien van Zuilen will be artist in residence at this year’s Grampians Texture event from March 5 to 10.

Van Zuilen will transform the courtyard of Halls Gap Community Centre with a handmade yurt, a portable dwelling traditionally used by nomadic people on the steppes of central Asia. She founded the Australian National Yurt Project in 1998 and felters from across Australia created the yurt which has since travelled throughout Australia. Van Zuilen, working in the supper at Halls Gap’s Centenary Hall each day, will also lead mini workshops. Grampians Texture will also feature a twilight makers market on the lawn at Stoney Creek shopping area on March 5. The market will feature

more than 35 stalls from students and tutors taking part in Grampians Texture. The stalls will include felting, stitch, eco and hand-dyed fibres and clothing, vintage and recycled wares, jewellery, knitting and paper and hand-made books. The event is renowned in the handcraft fraternity for its workshops, involving Australian and international tutors. Traders will sell specialist textile and art supplies at Halls Gap’s Community Hub from 8am to 5pm for all five days. The work of handwoven-product artist Stephen Gliese will be at Halls Gap Estate Winery. A fusion display from Grampians feltmaker group ‘Just Felt Like It’, featuring the work of artists Lois Hazledine, Michelle Koester, Gilda McKenchnie, Judith Burke, Glenda Gliese and Barb Venn, will be at Moco Gallery.

Shape council’s budget

orsham Rural City Council has called on residents to help shape the municipality’s priorities as it prepares a 2016-17 budget and reviews its council plan.

Corporate services director Graeme Harrison said the council set a new budget each year, taking into account changes in available revenue, changes in costs for existing services, its annual capital works programs and any new priorities as set out in its council plan. “In 2016-17, the State Government’s ‘Fair Go’ Rates will come into play, which will see the introduction of a 2.5 percent cap to rate increases,” he said. “Also, affecting the council in 2016-17 is the cumulative loss arising from the freeze on indexation of the Federal Government’s Financial Assis-

Heather Phillips tance Grants, which is about $500,000 annually.” Under the ‘Fair Go’ rates policy, councils can apply to the Essential Services Commission to increase rates by more than 2.5 percent. Horsham council intends to apply for an additional one percent for 2016-17, with the money to go towards the council’s infrastructure gap. Since 2008-09, the council has assigned between one and two percent of its rate increases to address ageing roads and

community facilities. Mayor Heather Phillips said rates helped deliver hundreds of services, from waste and recyling and urban renewal to services for families and the elderly. “Rate capping has brought challenges and opportunities for the council,” she said. “One challenge is to find smarter and more cost-efficient ways of continuing to provide services and infrastructure. “One of the best opportunities is bringing our community along on the journey, and understanding that we are all in this together. We are sharing with the community the hard work of balancing their aspirations for new services with our ongoing need to strengthen essential services and maintain our existing, ageing assets. “We will need to make tough choices and hard decisions, and the community will be part of that.”

“I’m already feeling like part of the team, everyone has been so welcoming,” she said. Ms Craig gained her Bachelor of Health Science and Masters of Occupational Therapy from Flinders University, Adelaide. Her professional goal is to broaden her knowledge and skills in the variety of occupation therapy fields. Ms Craig’s interests are netball and other outdoor activities.

University unveils bachelor program F

ederation University Australia has unveiled the new Bachelor of Arts degree programs it is offering from its Horsham and Ararat campuses this year. The university has confirmed it has so far received 10 student applications for the first-year course offer. The degree takes students three years to complete but under the new scheme, students attending Horsham and Ararat campuses for the first year will not need to travel to Ballarat. Wimmera campus head Geoff Lord said the new programs would provide higher eduction options for communities where remoteness could affect young people’s study options.

“A Bachelor of Arts is one of the fundamental areas of study and will provide students with an opportunity to develop analytical and conceptual skills that employers find valuable,” he said. As part of the first-year program, students will spend two full days each week engaged in classes in either Horsham or Ararat. “The course is designed so students have opportunities to develop higher education study skills and receive help with their assessment tasks,” Mr Lord said. The university will deliver the first year of the program as a face-to-face scenario. Courses offered in the first semester will

be Media and Screen Texts, Introduction to Social Inquiry and Modern World Events and Issues. The university’s community engagement program senior lecturer in education and arts Dr Tim Harrison said the Wimmera and Grampians Bachelor of Arts programs welcomed applications from a wide range of students. “You might have completed VCE with an ATAR, you might have finished year-12 with VCAL, have an unscored VCE or be a mature-age person who left school early and wants to return to study,” he said. “If you are interested in studying a university program, talk to us about the possibilities.”

Call for quad bike protection rebate Victorian Farmers Federation has called on the State Government to support a rebate on fitting roll-over protection devices to quad bikes. The federation’s call for a rebate follows Worksafe Victoria’s announcement that it deemed roll-over protection devices as ‘an appropriate means of reducing risks when quad bikes are used in the workplace’.

President Peter Tuohey said Worksafe had told the federation it was developing a risk assessment tool that farmers, as employers, would need to use to determine if a roll-over protection device needed to be fitted to a quad bike or other action needed to be taken. “If Worksafe is going to move towards ‘effectively’ mandating roll-over protection devices on quad bikes, then we need a

rebate on the $700 cost, especially when we’ve got many farmers running several quad bikes,” he said. “If there’s a risk of roll-over, Worksafe is saying farmers will need to reduce the risk by choosing a safer vehicle or fitting a roll-over protection device. We’ll be negotiating on how Worksafe develops a new assessment tool and what they deems to be appropriate.”

NEW FACES: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander dance company Bangarra will host auditions at Horsham College’s Baillie Street gymnasium tomorrow as part of its Rekindling Youth Program.

Café promotes food donations

orsham’s Christian Emergency Food Centre leaders hope a new partnership with Café Jas will boost donations to help Wimmera residents in need.

Café Jas is now a receival point for the centre, which helps people in the region who struggle with day-to-day living. Café Jas owner Mat Keating said he was excited about the partnership. “When our customers pop into the café we will encourage them to bring in a can or two, a packet of pasta or even a tin of instant coffee,” he said. “Something so small can

make a big difference in someone else’s day.” Christian Emergency Food Centre manager Ken Dowsley said the organisation was grateful for the support. “Café Jas has supported us for many years, but to have this initiative to promote what we do and what we need is amazing,” he said. “We receive some funding from the district churches and the government, but we rely heavily from donations and volunteers assistance.” On average, the Christian Emergency Food Centre distributes about 200 food packages a month. “Every little bit helps and

having such a convenient receival centre at Café Jas will make an immense difference,” Mr Dowsley said. For the next three months, Café Jas will match every item of food that is donated. “If you have half a dozen cans of baked beans sitting in the cupboard, bring them in and I’ll match them with six more,” Mr Keating said. He said people could donate cereal, pasta, instant noodles, tinned spaghetti and baked beans, rice, jams, vegemite, peanut butter, coffee, tea, sugar and tinned ruit. Café Jas is in Roberts Avenue, Horsham.

Concern over housing wait Latest figures show 283 people are waiting for public housing in Horsham district. Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said the quarterly figures show Horsham’s waiting list had risen by 49 people between March and December last year. “The public housing waiting list blew out when Labor was last in government and I am concerned that it’s going to happen again,” Ms Kealy said.

Opposition housing representative Tim Bull added the 2015-16 Budget forecasted a net loss in public housing residences across the state, which would only force more people onto the waiting list. “NSW has just announced a $1.1-billion new Social and Affordable Housing Fund but here in Victoria, the government has no clear strategy to combat homelessness,” he said.

Anti-smoking message

oolum Goolum Aboriginal Cooperative has launched a campaign aimed at raising awareness of the dangers of passive smoking.

The ‘Spot the Difference’ campaign targets the effects passive smoking have on children. The campaign use images that depict the difference between a smoke-filled home versus a smoke-free home. Goolum health promotion co-ordinator Dean O’Loughlin said the campaign’s strong visuals were aimed at highlighting how smoking can affect a family. The images will be on the back of town buses in Horsham and at Goolum Goolum community events. “We are really trying to highlight that smoking in the home with children should not be the norm,” Mr O’Loughlin said. “Children have limited choices when it comes to exposure to passive smoke;

watching TV with an in-house smoker becomes an unhealthy scenario for our young children. “Evidence tells us that smoking is a major health issue in the Indigenous community. As advocates for our local community, Goolum Goolum is being a community leader and tackling this issue head on. “When people see these images, we want them to stop and think about their own behaviour and how making our homes smoke-free can have major positive effects on our family’s health and wellbeing.” Mr O’Loughlin said as part of the campaign, a pledge had been developed for people to sign. “There are a range of pledges that all community members can sign up to, not just for Indigenous people and not just for smokers,” he said. “There are pledges to stop smoking in

Elvis idolisation

n 1985, photographer Polixeni Papapetrou began capturing images of fans, mourners and impersonators of Elvis Presley. Her series ‘Elvis Immortal’, on exhibition in Ararat Regional Art Gallery until March 27, documents a 15-year journey, which observes the cult of Elvis in Melbourne and registers the pathos of the dedicated men and women who zealously keep his memory alive. Papapetrou has encountered many fans each year on the anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death, August 16, 1977, at Melbourne General Cemetery. An imposing memorial was erected in the cemetery, attracting faithful mourners who allowed Papapetrou to record their homage to the American star. She met youths with greased-back hair striking poses of sultry but eroticised melancholy, families with flowers, even individuals who prayed to Elvis or contemplated his image in reverence for his tragic decline. Papapetrou sometimes followed the fans to their homes, often full of Elvis paraphernalia constituting domestic shrines and showing an earnest enthusiasm for the design of the 1950s, ’60s or ’70s. Papapetrou reflects that the artefacts crammed into these

houses seemed consecrated by Elvis’s memory accompanying the iconic images of Elvis, which often have an almost religious status in the adoration of the Memphis idol. Other fans rehearsed the magic songs with imitative performances, strutting the stage of a personal fantasy in a white jump suit or velvet and metallic jacket, emulating the theatricality of the musical genius in the demonstrative gestures for which he is still almost universally famous. These walking facsimiles also sometimes inhabit houses built in the manner of Graceland,

the legendary home of Elvis. Papapetrou’s photographs are neither a tribute nor a direct part of the Elvis cult; but even less are they a send-up of the sincere people who have taken her into their confidence. The photographs are an artistic witnessing of a popular cult, a kind of spontaneous religion emerging from an area of popular culture and often ordinary aspirations. ‘Elvis Immortal’ is not a sentimental journey down ‘memory lane’ but a contemporary exposition of popular culture in its desire for a community of faith, grace and immortality.

Making your dream a reality

Taking time out As farming communities work through another dry season, support agencies, alongside local government, have been working collaboratively to ensure the health and wellbeing of our rural communities. Part of the process is to inform those in need of all available resources. Connecting Communities aims to build on the strong resources in our region and promote the resilience that has seen many people through difficult times in the past.

Committee chairwoman and Yarriambiack Cr Helen Ballentine said there was something special about women connected to agricultural communities that created a common bond, and encouraged conversations about rural life. “Whether they be farming women, women in shops, or part of a whole network of organisations that support farming, there is a passion, a bubble, an interest and an empathy for each other while going through inclement seasons, without having to say too much,” she said. “Rural women are diverse. Being from the land myself, we have complexity in our lives. “Our event will lift morale, celebrate our lifestyle and remind ourselves we can get through anything.”

Connecting communities

Cr Ballentine said everyone was welcome to help celebrate the role women have in communities, in the family and on the farm. “Many of the workshop topics are of great interest to women state-wide, however, they are also of interest to men – couples are welcome to attend the events,” she said.

Humble

Cr Ballentine said women from rural backgrounds were traditionally humble. “We don’t talk about what we do, we just do it. Women tend to undersell themselves, but we must be multi-knowledgeable, we must have a degree of awareness about everything, even though we may not be physically doing a job. “As one older woman said: ‘our men need to be multiskilled, and we need to be multi-knowledgeable’.” Cr Ballentine said Agriculture Minister Jaala Pulford strongly supported the Hopetoun Women on Farms Gathering as a drought event. “It highlights the importance for farming women to come together at an event like this and enjoy each other’s company,” she said. Victorian Governor Linda

Dessau will officially open the 27th Victorian Women on Farms Gathering. “As the Governor said in her message to us, we have very diverse lives and a huge number of roles,” Cr Ballentine said. The weekend event, from March 18 to 20, will include workshops, tours, guest speakers, dinners and displays. Horsham Rural City Council is providing free lunch and transport to and from the event on Saturday, March 19, to help farming women attend. “The bus trip is part of the fun,” Cr Ballentine said. “It will give people time to sit back, relax and talk. We all get busy. We all feel we should take the men too, or the children, or the grandchildren we are caring for, but the stoic nature of rural women sometimes needs to be nurtured, and we need to remind them to take time out for themselves.” Cr Ballentine said workshops included important health updates, managing stress, photography and iPad training. “There is nothing too heavy, just short sessions enabling women to move around and go to two or three workshops,” she said. To secure a place on the bus call Horsham Rural City Council on 5382 9756 or email jennie.schoof@hrcc.vic.gov.au. For more information, visit www.hopetounwofg2016.com. au.

Help for families of drug users

immera Drug Action Taskforce leaders hope tomorrow’s inaugural National Family Drug Support Day will help reduce stigma and discrimination for drug users and their families and encourage them to ask for help.

Co-ordinator Sally Pymer said it was important to recognise family members who had loved ones struggling with alcohol or other drug problems. “Drug users are often misrepresented, stereotyped and discriminated against,” she said. “There is a barrier to families seeking help and support, which hinders the prospect of a positive outcome. “It is hoped National Family Drug Support Day will break down these barriers and encourage affected families to reach out for support.” Mrs Pymer said the day was also designed to promote family drug support services for families and friends, along with harm reduction strategies. “Any family anywhere in

Australia, regardless of background, economic and other circumstances can be affected by drugs,” she said. Mrs Pymer said statistics showed almost three million Australians aged 15 years or older had recently used illicit drugs. “In 2012 the Australian Bureau of Statistics reported there were more than 1400 fatalities due to drug use, and that does not include alcohol or tobacco,” she said. “This means many families are involved and this has a huge effect.” Mrs Pymer said families living with someone who used drugs often found themselves in confronting, difficult and stressful situations. “They worry about their behaviour, health, mental wellbeing, employment, study, relationships, children, finances and future prospects,” she said. “This all takes a toll on family members. There are added concerns if the family member is using illicit drugs, which

include the possibility of being arrested, charged and criminalised. “There is also the possibility the drugs will be fatal.” Mrs Pymer said family members could feel isolated because of the stigma associated with illicit drug use. “The whole family suffers, not only the person using drugs,” she said. “It is hoped National Family Drug Support Day will allow family members to feel comfortable asking for help.” Family support is available in the Wimmera. Grampians Community Health runs free, confidential alcohol and other drug family support group meetings. The meetings are fortnightly on Thursdays from 5.30pm to 7pm at Grampians Community Health, 25 David Street, Horsham. The next meeting is tomorrow night. Mrs Pymer said people could call her, Carol or Laura on 5362 1200 for more information.

Council funding fight N

orthern Grampians Shire Council will continue to push its 3, 16, 81 message amid debate over a State Government’s decision to cap rate rises in line with inflation from mid-2016.

The council contends rate capping is not the issue Victorian councils are struggling with – instead they need a solution to ongoing underfunding of local government. Mayor Murray Emerson said the message was a simple one. “The taxation white paper released in 2015 clearly shows the disparity in funding when the levels of government are compared,” he said. “From each tax dollar, just three cents go towards funding local government – 16 cents go

to the State Government and 81 to the Federal Government. “When you think about the amount of infrastructure that each level of government is responsible for and how much funding they receive to maintain it, there’s a very obvious mismatch.”

Responsibility

Cr Emerson said local government was responsible for alot of intrastructure, particularly in small municipalities. “In Northern Grampians we have more than 3000 kilometres of roads, 140 bridges and 452 major culverts that need to be maintained,” he said. “The Federal Government has a lot less infrastructure than local councils and yet they’re getting the lion’s share of taxation dollar, while we’re

forced to look at downgrading the standard of our roads. We were thankful to receive a significant increase in our roads funding from the Federal Government through our local member Andrew Broad but unfortunately it’s not just roads that need our attention. “Many of the costs previously shared 50-50 with the State Government are becoming more heavily weighted towards us. Things such as school crossings and emergency management are perfect examples of this. “The State Government is shirking its responsibilities and our ratepayers are left to make up the shortfall.” Cr Emerson said the aim of the council’s ongoing 3, 16, 81 ‘A Fair Go For Locals’ campaign was to force the state

and federal governments to reconsider the allocation of the taxation dollar. “We strongly believe this is something that needs to be closely looked at,” he said. “We did make a submission when the white paper was first released last year but we don’t feel our concerns have been given the consideration they deserve. “This isn’t something we’ve come up with overnight. “The underfunding of local government has been a concern of ours for a long time now and our message doesn’t seem to be getting through so it’s time for us to ramp it up.” The council plans to take the campaign to the state and federal governments in the coming months.

Longerenong College enrolment boost Longerenong College at Dooen north of Horsham has started the academic year the largest number of full-time students in more than a decade. Business development officer Donna Winfield said the high number of people

studying at the agricultural institution was due to the college’s reputation for combining practical and academic studies. “The students now making the Wimmera their home have come from Tasmania, NSW, South Australia, Gippsland, Kan-

garoo Island and all parts of Victoria,” she said. “The students have moved into new dormitory accommodation and we have received positive feedback. The upgrade is due to be completed in April.”

Art matters in Horsham

$500,000

Horsham project involving adults with disabilities creating visual and performing arts has attracted a $3000 Federal Government grant.

$250,000

Horsham’s Art Matters project will culminate with a series of public performances during Horsham’s Art is... festival in June. Member for Mallee Andrew Broad announced the grant after the official opening of Horsham’s redeveloped town hall and regional art gallery.

Hang on a tick

He said Horsham Rural City Council had been successful in its application for a Regional Arts Fund – Quick Response Grant. “This is great news and perfectly timed, as Horsham embraces its new capacity as an arts venue,” he said. “The Regional Arts Fund is designed to support art and cultural projects that offer long-term effects through the project itself and through the skills developed as a result of the project. “Horsham’s Art Matters pro-

ject is a clever blend of visual and performing arts for adults with a disability. “Using art to connect people and to enhance confidence and skills is at the very heart of the Regional Arts Fund and I congratulate all those involved with developing the idea.” Mr Broad said Horsham was quickly building a reputation as an arts hub and he believed the Wimmera centre had an opportunity to capitalise on the new performing arts centre and gallery. “It’s accepted that towns with

a strong artistic culture have a greater sense of community spirit and are increasingly attractive to visitors,” he said. “There’s no doubt Horsham’s future is looking ever brighter.” Activities at Horsham Regional Art Gallery from next month will include beginner photography workshops. Thea Jane Photography will present six workshops for adults between 5.30pm and 8pm from March 13 to April 11, culminating with an Art is... exhibition.

Super in your 30s

f you are in your thirties, chances are life revolves around children and a mortgage.

As much as we love our kids, the fact is they cost quite a lot. As for the mortgage, this is the age during which repayments are generally at their highest, relative to income. And on top of that, one parent is often not working, or working only part time. Even if children aren’t a factor, career building is paramount during this decade. Are you expected to think about super at a time like this? Well, yes, there are a few things of which you need to pay attention.

Short-term plans As careers start to hit their strides, the 30s can be a time for earning a good income. If children are not yet in the picture, but are part of the future plan, then it’s an excellent idea to squirrel away and invest any spare cash to prepare for a drop in family income when junior arrives. Remember that any savings you want to access before retirement should not be invested in superannuation.

Long-term comfort Don’t be alarmed, but by the time a 35-year-old couple today reaches retirement age in 32 years’ time, the effects of inflation could mean that they will need an income of about $150,000 a year to enjoy a ‘comfortable’ retirement. To support that level of income for up to 30 years

in retirement, they will want to have built a combined nest egg of about $2.6-million. If you are on a 30 percent or higher marginal tax rate, willing to stash some cash for the long term, and would like to reduce your tax bill, then consider making salary sacrifice, pre-tax, contributions to super. For most people super contributions and earnings are taxed at 15 percent, so savings will grow faster inside than outside super. For example, if you’re earning $100,000 a year, making a contribution of $10,000 from salary to super will save you paying $3900 in income tax for that year – and increase your super balance by $8500.

Growing a nest egg Even if you can’t make additional contributions right now, there is one thing you can do to help achieve a comfortable retirement – ensure your super is invested in an appropriate portfolio. With decades to go until retirement, a portfolio with a higher proportion of shares, property and other growth assets is likely to out-perform one that is dominated by cash and fixed-interest investments. But be mindful – the higher the return, the higher the associated risk. Another option for lower in-

come earners to explore is the cocontribution. If you are eligible, and if you can afford to contribute up to $1000 to your super, you could receive up to $500 from the government. Or to keep your partner’s super humming along while she or he is earning a low income, you can make a spouse contribution on their behalf and gain a tax offset of up to $540.

Paying insurance

For any young family, financial protection is crucial. The loss of or disablement of either parent would be disastrous. In most cases both parents should be covered by life and disability insurance. If this insurance is taken out through your superannuation fund the premiums are paid out of your accumulated super balance. While this means that your ultimate retirement benefit will be a bit less than if you took out insurance directly, it doesn’t impact on the family budget. However, don’t accept the amount of cover that many funds automatically provide. It might not be adequate for your needs. Whether it’s super, insurance, establishing investments or building your career, there’s a lot to think about when you’re thirtysomething. It’s an ideal age to start some serious financial planning, so talk to a financial adviser about putting a plan into place so you can have everything now – and in 30 years’ time. • Robert Goudie is an authorised representative at Meritum Financial Group.

NEW PHARMACIST: Mark Parlicki stocks the new acute wing at Rural Northwest Health’s Warracknabeal campus with prescriptions.

Pharmacist settles in After seeing his share of the world Mark Parlicki has now settled into life in Warracknabeal.

Mr Parlicki is Warracknabeal Pharmacy’s new pharmacist and spends each morning doing rounds at Rural Northwest Health’s Warracknabeal campus. Mr Parlicki grew up in Sale before moving to Bendigo to study a Bachelor of Pharmacy at La Trobe University. After completing his internship at The Royal Melbourne Hospital, he travelled to South America on a 10-month hiatus. During that time he volunteered for four weeks at a Bolivian orphanage. He then went to the South Pacific where he settled in Vanuatu for the next 18 months and vol-

unteered at a hospital on Santo, an island in the northern archipelago. Mr Parlicki’s role was to provide dispensing and prescribing expertise at the hospital to improve the quality use of medicines. He was also commissioned to set up a clinical pharmacy service on the island. He has been in Warracknabeal less than a month but said he had been warmly welcomed. “It’s a fantastic community. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly and I’m really enjoying it,” he said. He said he was also looking forward to working in retail pharmacy. “My background so far has been in hospital pharmacy so I’m enjoying the challenge,” he said.

Federal money has flowed into region

ember for Mallee Andrew Broad has revealed that Wimmera councils have received almost $100-million in Federal Government funding since the 2013 election.

He said the money was part of more than $370-million distributed to nine municipal councils in the Mallee electorate with the figure expected to rise in the new few months. Mr Broad said the government’s regional development policy aimed to stimulate growth in country Australia by focusing on projects that delivered sustainable economic and social outcomes. “We’ve had massive investments in our infrastructure, health and education sectors, through programs such as the National Stronger Regions Fund, Stronger Communities, Roads to Recovery, Mobile Blackspot and Community Development

Andrew Broad Grants. This funding is stimulating growth, investment and optimism in our region and only hints at all that can still lie ahead,” he said. Mr Broad said he was committed

to continuing to work to further develop policy that better reflected Wimmera and Mallee needs and help shape new ideas that encouraged a strong regional economy. “I’ve worked hard to have our region recognised and our endeavours supported with federal funding, and while we have achieved a milestone, $370-million in two years, there’s still work to be done,” he said. “There are many projects we want to get going and the regional development policy will help us continue to secure growth and optimism in the Wimmera and Mallee.” Government funding: Horsham Rural City $33,996,865.38, Hindmarsh $11,074,656.00, Mildura Rural City, $156,221,148.19, Yarriambiack $13,734,054.06, West Wimmera $15,044,684.00, Swan Hill $22,427,294.38, Northern Grampians $20,6222,323.55, Buloke $15,652,038.00, Gannawarra $16,125,834.26.

Region’s top talent on show at Stawell venue Northern Grampians Shire’s Youth Action Council will be on the lookout for the region’s top talent when it hosts ‘Y Factor’ next month.

The council hosted its first Y Factor event in 2015, showcasing 26 acts from young people aged seven to 20, including comedians, musicians, dancers and singers. This year’s acts will take to the stage at Stawell Entertainment Centre on April 15, during National Youth Week. The council received a $2000 State Government grant to host the event. Northern Grampians Cr Karen Hyslop said receiving the funding was a reflection of years of hard work by the YAC. “Our YAC has been running for almost three years now and in that time they’ve had some fantastic events and

really made progress in creating a better community for our young people,” she said. “We’re looking forward to seeing the YAC put on another great event with the Y Factor this National Youth Week and we hope the community will get behind these young people and help them make it a success.” Cr Hyslop said Stawell would be abuzz during National Youth Week, with Central Grampians LLEN, Stawell Neighbourhood House and Budja Budja Neighbourhood House all hosting creative events, with outcomes featured at Y Factor. Y Factor entries will open in the coming weeks. Cr Hyslop said people could follow the YAC’s Facebook page, www.facebook.com/ngyac, for more information.

Social event at garden village Horsham Gardens retirement village will host its first social event of the year today when it presents its own version of popular game show, The Price is Right.

The village has invited Horsham senior citizens to take part in the event, which starts at 2pm.

HallsGap&Grampians Tourist Guide Rising abruptly from the Wimmera plains, the jagged peaks of the Grampians Mountain Ranges dominate the surrounding skyline. In the cooler autumn weather the spectacular landscape is a playground for people seeking to discover and explore the Grampians National Park. Close to Horsham, the northern Grampians has a range of activities suitable for visitors of all ages and abilities, starting at Hollow Mountain carpark and Mt Zero Picnic Area. Beginning at Hollow Mountain carpark, head off on an easy half hour stroll to see Aboriginal art at Gulgurn Manja Shelter. Alternatively people can take a longer and more challenging climb up Hollow Mountain or even go rock-climbing with a guiding company in the beginner-friendly Summerday Valley. A short drive further along is Mt Zero Picnic Area, where people can start walks and enjoy a barbecue lunch – but Parks Victoria advises for people to bring their own wood, be aware of total fire ban days and completely extinguish the fire once finished. Walks from the picnic area include a short and steep rock ramble to the top of Flat Rock, where you can either return via the same route or continue on the harder Mt Stapylton walk. If on a family adventure and are after a way to challenge children, people can go for a walk up to the most northern peak in the Grampians, Mt Zero, and see the Wimmera plains disappear into the horizon. When planning any adventure in the outdoors, Parks Victoria advises people make sure they plan ahead by checking the weather, pack a map, have plenty of water and wear clothing appropriate to the conditions. Be safe, be prepared. For track notes and maps, people can pick up a copy of the Northern Walks brochure from Brambuk – The National Park and Cultural Centre in Halls Gap or call 5361 4000. Additional park information can be found by visiting the Parks Victoria website at www. parks.vic.gov.au.

PICTURED: A short walk or drive can take you to amazing views anywhere in the Grampians National Park.

Holden Spark creeps up in price but offers accessories GM Holden’s baby Spark will cost slightly more than the ageing model it replaces when it rolls into showrooms in April, but it will be offered with connectivity features not yet seen in the micro-car segment.

The all-new Spark will be offered in two specification levels, kicking off with the LS manual from $13,990 plus on-road costs, representing a $1100 increase over the outgoing CD. Opting for a continuously variable transmission CVT adds $1700, bringing it to $15,690 – $600 more than the old auto. A more generously specified LT is available exclusively with a CVT and is priced from $18,990. The entry price means the Spark is more expensive than its rivals, with the Nissan Micra ranging from $13,490 to $16,990 plus on-roads, Mitsubishi’s Mirage priced between

USB input, electric power steering and 14-inch steel wheels. Safety features include ESC, ABS and traction control and hill-start assist. Buyers stepping up to the LT will gain keyless entry, pushbutton start, leather-wrapped steering wheel, Sportec seat trim, white interior highlights, rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, cruise control and 15-inch alloy wheels. Under the bonnet is a 73kW/128Nm 1.4-litre petrol four-cylinder engine that will be matched with either a five-speed manual gearbox or a CVT. As reported, Holden’s engineering team put the Spark through its paces, ensuring its suspension set-up and ride and handling were ideal for Australian conditions. Holden says buyers would be able to personalise their Spark thanks to the availability of some ‘specially designed genuine accessories’. “Our one, two, three step

Kia’s Picanto arrives soon and while pricing is yet to be announced, the car-maker told GoAuto last year that it would start at about $14,990. The auto Spark LS is creeping in on Barina pricing, which starts at $15,390 in manual guise. At the top end, the Spark LT sits not far behind the entry Cruze Equipe hatch that starts at $19,890. As previously reported, the Spark will be the first micro car in Australia offered with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard across the range, as well as Siri Eyes Free voice recognition software, all matched with a 7.0-inch touchscreen. In base LS guise, the Spark features central locking, 60-40 split-fold seats, driver information cluster, steering wheel audio controls, air-conditioning, MyLink infotainment system,

User charges could pay for roads

nfrastructure Australia has become the latest body to call on the government to institute an inquiry into the introduction of road-user charges to pay for road building and maintenance. It has also called for the full implementation of road-user charging for heavy vehicles within five years and within 10 years for light vehicles. The independent statutory authority has echoed the calls from the Productivity Commission, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and Intelligent Transport Systems-Australia to replace the existing piece-meal system of road funding. In a wide-ranging report that examines many areas of the economy where infrastructure is required, Infrastructure Australia chairman Mark Birrell said the funding of roads needed to be reformed so users carried a fairer share of the burden. “The Federal Government should initiate a public inquiry, to be led by a body like the Productivity Commission or Infrastructure Australia, into

the existing funding framework for roads and development of a road user charging reform pathway,” he said. The inquiry would look at the fairness, financial sustainability and economic efficiency of road funding. Mr Birrell said it should also consider what would be the optimal system of charging for road use, what the affects of changing from the current system would be and what a detailed reform pathway would look like. He said while heavy vehicles had been paying for road use since 1992 through the PayGo system, new technology was making it easier to calculate the full impact trucks had on the road network. “Technology to support heavy vehicle charging has been used in parts of Europe and in New Zealand for some time,” Mr Birrell said. “Low-cost in-vehicle transponders and satellite tracking are increasingly being used to open up parts of Australia’s road network to suitably-specified trucks. Productivity improvements of up to 100 per cent are being realised,

and associated reductions in fuel use are cutting emissions. “By 2014, the technology had already been installed in 25,000 trucks, a 65 per cent increase from two years earlier.”

Applauded

The call for a closer examination of road user charging was applauded by the nation’s motoring clubs through the Australian Automobile Association, and also by the Rail Manufacturing Co-operative Research Centre. “The AAA strongly supports Infrastructure Australia’s call for a public inquiry into road funding reform and how we can replace current taxes with a fairer road user pricing mechanism,” AAA chief executive Michael Bradley said. “Australian motorists pay close to $28 billion in taxes and charges every year. “However the allocation of funding into road, rail and public transport infrastructure needed across Australia remains ad hoc, unfair and lacking in transparency.”

The Rail Manufacturing Co-operative Research Centre pointed out Infrastructure Australia’s plan highlighted the fact that funding reform of the transport sector was the most significant infrastructure challenge facing the country. Centre chief executive Stuart Thompson backed the call to commit to the implementation of a heavy vehicle road charging system within five years. “Such a move would not only level the playing field between road and rail, but it would also be a source of much-needed funding to meet Australia’s urgent infrastructure challenges,” he said. “Australia’s current system of cost recovery in the transport sector has stymied the rail industry for decades. “With the renaissance in urban light rail projects and a strong pipeline of rolling stock orders either being delivered or awaiting tender outcomes, and with the right policy settings, the rail manufacturing industry in Australia has the potential to grow to meet the

challenges of Australia’s future transport needs.” Mr Thompson said under-recovery of road maintenance and building costs from heavy transport meant that trucks were receiving an advantage over rail, which received no hidden subsidies. He said the forecast 80 percent growth in the national freight task between 2011 and 2031 meant that much more needed to be done to achieve competitive neutrality between road and rail. He said it was in the national interest to replace some truck haulage with rail. “One freight train can carry 280 heavy vehicles and the average passenger train can take 525 cars off the road,” he said. “Rail is also the safest form of land transport and, with the high growth in the projected number of heavy vehicles on our roads, this is an important consideration.” Ian Porter Go Auto Media 2016

Mercedes ‘future-proofs’ diesel

ercedes-Benz has simultaneously returned fire at Jaguar’s Ingenium engines while rubbing salt into Volkswagen’s wounds, with a new diesel engine family it says sets a new standard in efficiency and emissions.

The all-new OM 654 2.0-litre four-cylinder is the German car-maker’s first all-aluminium diesel, and will debut under the bonnet of the nextgeneration E-Class, reducing its diesel appetite by about 13 percent. If it manages the increase in efficiency, when it launches later this year, the new E-Class could use 4.3 litres of fuel per 100km on a combined cycle, matching the current luxury large economy king – Jaguar’s freshly-launched XF Prestige 20d. At the new E220d’s debut at the Detroit show in January, Mercedes claimed the new model’s fuel consumption would slip under 4.0L/100km, but final Australian specification is yet to be confirmed. Despite the reduction in fuel use and a smaller displace-

ment than the outgoing 2.2-litre unit, the new engine has found more grunt per drop, with power rising 18kW to 143kW. Thanks to its lightweight construction it has shed 34kg. Torque is unchanged at 400Nm. In the wake of the unfolding Volkswagen diesel emissions scandal, Mercedes is spruiking

the cleanliness of its OM 654 engine, claiming the new engine is ‘future-proof’ and the family of modular engines that follows it will ‘meet all future global emissions standards’. While VW’s 2.0-litre and 3.0-litre diesel engines used a ‘defeat device’ to cheat the NEDC measurement cycle, Mercedes’ new engine has

been designed to conform to new more accurately simulated Real Driving Emissions, RDE, testing. The various benefits to weight, efficiency and emissions are thanks to a significant rethink about how a diesel operates, with innovations in exhaust gas recirculation, EGR, catalytic pollutant con-

to reduce oxides of nitrogen, NOX, and other pollutants before catalytic treatment. After the gasses emerge from the turbocharger turbine they first enter an oxidation cat, then go into a downdraught AdBlue mixer, which doses the gas with urea, for further NOX reduction in a second Selective Catalytic Reduction system, SCR. Before entering the exhaust silencers, the gas passes through a final particulate filter to remove solid particles that produce the black smoke and soot, which is associated with older diesel engine technology. Daimler board member with responsibility for group research and head of Mercedes-Benz Cars development Thomas Weber said the new family of engines secured the future of diesel power for Mercedes’ light and heavy vehicles. “In our opinion, the diesel engine is indispensable in trucks and cars if we want to further reduce the CO2 emissions from traffic,” he said.

version and materials technology. Unlike many compression ignition engines that use a cast iron cylinder block and alloy pistons, the new Mercedes four cylinder reverses that trend, with an aluminium block and highly unusual steel pistons. The unorthodox pistons stroke what Mercedes calls Nanoslide-coated cylinders, which is a process that sprays molten iron-carbon alloy onto the iron cylinder liner, producing an extremely smooth, lowfriction finish. With more conventional emission-reductions systems, a single catalyst is located at a point downstream from the engine in the exhaust system, but Mercedes has installed two catalysts directly on the OM 654 engine. With such a close proximity to the hot exhaust gasses, Mercedes says the critical cat light-off temperature is reached immediately after the engine is started, unlike other approaches, which require a warm-up period. Multiway EGR returns a small quantity of exhaust gasses to the combustion chamber

Riversimple reveals Rasa model

single teaser image released last week by Welsh start-up green carmaker Riversimple suggested the company was about to launch a pumped-up low-slung hydrogen supercar with potent performance and the looks to boot.

But the Rasa turned out to be quite the opposite. Instead of a vicious mid-engined monster with bitumenbusting acceleration, the Rasa is a bantamweight prototype town car with tyres that appear to be from the Tour De France and 8.5kW of power. Accelerating from zero to 100kmh is impossible with a top speed of 97kmh. It is now clear that if you take a close-up shot of the Rasa’s rear haunch, its ventilated C-pillar, angular panels and piercing tail-lights can give the appearance of a fun-focused sportscar. Styling was handled by Australian-born former Alfa Romeo design director Chris Reitz, who was previously involved in the Giulietta and Fiat 500 projects, and Nissan concept projects including the Qashqai, CrossBow and Micra

C+C, so it is unclear what happened with the Riversimple. The Rasa does have a few supercar features however, with an all-wheel-drive transmission, two seats and head-turning butterfly-opening doors. Look past the little car’s skinny facade and the British-built eco-car features some accomplished engineering including a hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain, ultralight carbon-fibre construction and just 18 moving components in its drivetrain. Weighing in at 580kg, the Rasa is seriously light allowing it to go further on less fuel. A full 1.5kg tank of hydrogen can propel the little green car about 480km, and regenerative braking from all four hub motors can recover as much as 50 per cent of its kinetic energy. Metropolitan environments are where the Rasa is at home with only water vapour emitted from its drivetrain and easy manoeuvrability, thanks to its diminutive proportions. Fuel economy is estimated at an almost unbelievable 1.1 litres a 100km. While it is a zero-emissions car, the company says its construction carbon footprint is also the lowest of any vehicle

H2 NO: This teaser image released last week had GoAuto excited that Riversimple was about to reveal a savage highperformance hydrogen hyper car, but it didn’t. with a ‘well-to-wheel’ figure of 40g/km. Twenty of the Rasas will be produced to take part in a oneyear beta trial before a production model rolls out in 2018. The vehicles will not be sold, but leased through the company’s ‘sale of service’ model, which covers all running and maintenance costs for a fixed fee, similar to Hyundai’s ix35 Fuel Cell deal in California and General Motors’ lease plan for

the GM EV1 electric car. Riversimple Movement founder Hugo Spowers said the prototype demonstrated the feasibility of compact, light and zeroemissions vehicles. “The Rasa engineering prototype marks another key milestone in bringing an affordable and highly-efficient hydrogenpowered car to market. We really have started from a clean sheet of paper,” he said. “The Rasa gives us the op-

portunity to introduce customers to a more convenient concept of motoring, a lightness of ownership that neither places a burden on the pockets of motorists or the surrounding environment. “The car is simple, light and fun in every respect.” The company was founded in 2001 and, in 2008, Riversimple launched its first LifeCar in partnership with Morgan, followed by a technology demon-

strator under the impossible to pronounce moniker ‘Hyrban’. The Rasa is a valid insight into future mobility. But with Australia’s almost non-existent hydrogen infrastructure and minimal demand for ultra-eco-friendly cars, the chances of the little car making it to the local market are about the same as its emissions – zero.

Dimboola

Dimboola goes back to basics

BY DEAN LAWSON imboola football leaders will have a simple philosophy as they work on the building blocks to provide the club with longevity and success into the future.

Hamish Exell, joint coaching the Roos with non-playing Des Anthony this year, said getting the best out of every player in a team environment was fundamental in the club rekindling its competitive edge. “If we do that, we win games,” he said. “It’s basically about players working together to make life easier for each other, playing unselfish football and being willing to sacrifice part of their game each week for the benefit of the team.” The Roos came back to earth with a thud after breaking through for a long-awaited flag in 2013 and have spent the past two seasons trying to soften the blow of a serious premiership hangover. The departure of 18 players from the ranks last season set off alarm bells and the Roos have responded with a fresh approach and a dedicated goal of strengthening or re-establishing connections with their community. Club president Colin Campbell said a reshuffle in club administration with six new members joining the committee had helped inject a fresh feel into the club. “We’re concentrating on overall club development such as junior ranks and working on community connections,” he said. “It’s about putting a lot of time in the off-season into local people and getting as many locals back to the club as possible. “If we win a few games of footy this year it’s a bonus.

AT A GLANCE Seniors: Reserves: Under-17s: Under-14s:

There’s a great feeling back around the club and everyone involved is keen and excited.” Exell said there were few expectations of the senior playing group at this stage of the year, except perhaps to try to be competitive against strong opposition teams for longer. “Although people obviously do talk about where they would like to finish, we haven’t sat down as a group and said anything about finals, top three or anything like that,” he said. “What we know is that in a couple of games against top teams last year, we weren’t competitive for, in some cases, a quarter or maybe a half. If we can simply work on that, it’s a good starting point.”

Joint coaches

Exell said he was enjoying sharing coaching duties with Des Anthony, who shifted from Natimuk United to join the Roos, and was confident his team could perform well this season. “Working with Des has been really good and in many ways we’re similar. At the end of the day, I have to be playing football and he will provide peace of mind carrying out coaching duties from the sidelines. He comes with a heap of experience in various sporting codes and some at an elite level,” he said. “We have between eight and 10 blokes who would be definite walk-up starts in other Wimmera sides. I believe we

have enough mature footballers on our list, aged between 23 and 30, who can shoulder responsibilities required to win the footy and get the ball to younger players providing the run and carry.” Dimboola has lost the likes of Torin Petrie and Ash Clugston but still has forward Lachie Exell looking super-fit and likely to take on a greater roaming role this season. Toohey Medallist and ruckman Justin Chilver will also be a feature in the middle. Exell revealed he would look to players such as experienced Daniel Greig to provide critical leadership from defence and for a group of young evolving players to take the next step in their football development. Dimboola has plenty of work to do to rekindle the form and structure that led to the 2013 flag but the sense is the Roos are all back pulling in the same direction. The club’s recruiting list appears relatively lean as far bigname players go, but the Roos are rebuilding ranks overall, have had good numbers on the training track and will have a better understanding of where they stand after a practice match against Kaniva-Leeor United next month. Dimboola finished sixth, with seven wins last year, and regardless of ‘official’ expectations will no doubt be looking to start a march back up the ladder.

LOOKING AHEAD: Dimboola coach Hamish Exell is instilling a play-foreach-other culture at the Roos. Below, ruckman Justin Chilver will again be a key player for the Roos. Pictures: WILLAMY IMAGES

Shake-up for Roos’ A Grade team BY SARAH SCULLY

imboola netball has undergone a resurgence in Wimmera Netball Association, with A Grade building itself up from the depths of the ladder to become a genuine finals contender.

The Roos will look to continue their form in 2016, but will have their work cut out after a major shake-up of their A Grade line-up. New coach Antoinette Toet, who has taken the reins from association life member Dian Dent, said the club was determined to remain competitive following the loss of several key players. “We’ve lost six, possibly seven A Grade players – three are pregnant, a couple are off to university and one isn’t playing,” she said. Toet will coach from the sidelines after injuring her back. “I’m not sure when or if I’ll be back this year,” she said. “It’s going to be tough, but we do have several players capable of stepping up.” The Roos have retained shooter Billie-Jo Barber, along with 17 and under player Rianna Kuhne.

2016 COACHES

A Grade: Antoinette Toet B Grade: Tamara Exell C Grade: Sharon Bartholomew, Kellie Laverty 17 and under: Tamara Exell, Grace Braithwaite 15 and under: Erin Lewis 13 and under, Net Set Go: To be confirmed “Rianna was our development player last year and benefited from the senior experience,” Toet said. “We’re looking at a couple of juniors to step up and play both 17 and unders and A Grade. “We’ve also got a lot of B Grade players who could step up. We haven’t selected teams yet, so we’re still working out who that will be.”

All teams

Toet said the club had worked hard to attract players to ensure it could field all teams. “Having players step up to A Grade obviously leaves gaps in the lower teams,” she said. “A couple of weeks ago we were looking at not having a C Grade, but we’ve been able to get enough players, so we’re happy that will go ahead now.” Toet said there was a positive feeling around the club as net-

ballers looked to continue their rise up the ranks. “For a long time Dimboola was well and truly the woodenspooner,” she said. “In the past five years we’ve worked really hard to improve, including putting a lot of work into our juniors.” In 2014, Dimboola’s A Grade secured a finals berth for the first time in almost 40 years. The Roos also contested an elimination final last year, going down to Ararat by four goals in a close encounter at Horsham City Oval. “We only lost by a few goals, compared with the 30-odd they beat us by the previous time we played them,” Toet said. “It was a definite improvement. “We want to continue pushing for our senior teams to play finals. We understand that

but they could be in a similar position to us after losing quite a few players,” she said. “I think Stawell and Warrack have lost a few, but I haven’t heard too much about the others. While we’ve been deci-

might be difficult because we have several people not playing, but we’ll see how we go.” Toet said she looked forward to seeing how other teams had fared in the off-season. “Horsham has a bit of depth,

mated, if other teams have lost players as well, it might bust the competition open a bit. It would be good to see teams on an even level – then it could be anyone’s.”

Edenhope-Apsley

Edenhope-Apsley back on the up BY GRANT KUCHEL fter a tumultuous offseason where EdenhopeApsley discussed and debated a return to Kowree Naracoorte Tatiara league, the Saints enter this season full of optimism and hope.

The club, which has firmed up its place in Horsham District league, has had a prosperous recruiting program in the off-season, and a return to finals action is a real chance after the Saints slid off the pace last year. The signing of Horsham Saints big man Michael Rowe as coach has given the side a huge fillip. The key tall should dominate a competition devoid of a lot of classy ruckman. If Rowe can give first use of the ball to his side, the Saints will become a dangerous outfit. Joining Rowe at the Saints is former club best and fairest and interleague player Chris Oliver, who returns from South Gambier. The silky-skilled Oliver oozes class and will strengthen the defensive unit. Edenhope-Apsley has certainly added key-position potency to the side with key forward Jake Ryan from South Gambier and James Kirby, Warracknabeal, joining Rowe and Oliver.

AT A GLANCE Seniors: Reserves: Under-17s: Under-14s:

2016 COACHES

Michael Rowe Sam Whitehead, Brad Burgess Taylor Milner Josh Clissold

There are also rumours that Rowe might have a few accomplices from Horsham Saints follow him down the Wimmera Highway. In a further boost for the club, young gun Sam McClure should spend more time in the red, white and black jumper this season after Rebels duties and injuries limited his time at his home club last season. On the losses side, a trio of quality youngsters are waiting to leave. Bartley Nolan, Grant Cother and Oliver Gabbe are all heading over the border. This will test the depth and speed of the Saints. Rumours also abound that dual Dellar Medallist Brent Christie and Dave McLeish might not be in Saints jumpers this season. If true, this will severely dent the Saints’ finals ambitions. Edenhope-Apsley will hope Jeremy Kealy continues his stellar form

from last season, while it will be interesting to see how Grant Coxon plays without the shackles of having to coach. The Saints still boast plenty of class around the middle of the ground. Tough nut Bernard Kealy and the slippery pair of Milner brothers can all win plenty of the football and, if Ryan can stand up in the forward line, the Saints will be a dangerous side. No doubt the Saints will still be hunting for players from over the border and if the South Australian salary cap is in place, then the Saints might find it a bit easier to entice players to the club. Edenhope-Apsley should be one of the sides chasing a newly-created sixth spot in the finals. But the Saints face three potential finals sides twice – games that might well determine if it is in finals action or fall agonisingly close.

RETURNING TO THE SAINTS: Edenhope-Apsley has welcomed former best and fairest player Chris Oliver back to the club in season 2016. Oliver returns to the Saints after playing for South Gambier last year. Picture: WILLAMY IMAGES

New-look Saints eye premiership BY SARAH SCULLY

denhope-Apsley will field a new-look team in 2016 as it rekindles its push for a Horsham District A Grade flag.

The Saints were the standout team of 2015, entering the finals series as hot favourites after completing an undefeated home-and-away season. Finals, however, are a different ball game, and the Saints bowed out in straight sets. Netball director Lee Fox said the club was determined to again challenge for the premiership. “A terrific new line-up will see a highly-athletic, versatile and fast-paced team capable of challenging the best clubs in the league,” she said. Sarah Jude has resumed her role as A Grade coach and will be responsible for rebuilding her team after the departure of a raft of players, including league best-and-fairest winner Emma Ryan. The Saints have also lost Emma Forster, Cynthia Watt, Lauren Fazlic, Sammy Mulraney and Georgia McLennan. Ms Fox said the club had recruited strongly to cover its losses. “We’ve recruited Mon Van Dyke from East Point in Ballarat. She’s a fast-paced midcourter capable of shooting goals,” she said. “Former Edenhope-Apsley A Grade player Rebecca Carter has returned after travel, along with former league junior best and fairest Alex Lang. Alex has played A Grade with us before and is returning after a year of study.” Lang will strengthen the side’s defensive capabilities. “We’ve got Brittany Kirby, an experienced midcourt player with a high level of fitness, and former Horsham Saint and

STATE LEAGUE PLAYER: EdenhopeApsley young gun Sacha McDonald will be an important player for the Saints this season.

2016 COACHES

A Grade: Sarah Jude B Grade: Krystal Schapel, assistant Wendy Cryer C Grade: Emma Bourne, assistant Sarah Domaschenz C Reserve: Rebecca Mill 17 and under: Kellie Jude 15 and under: Rebecca Carter 13 and under: Tanya Turner, Anne-Marie Robinson junior state netballer Ema-Lee Rowe, who will also assist in the midcourt.” Ms Fox said Saints young gun Sacha McDonald would play a pivotal role in A Grade after committing for the season. McDonald, 15, has represented School Sports Victoria’s 15 and under state netball team for the past two years and also plays for Ballarat-based Sovereigns in Victorian Netball League. Ms Fox said pre-season was well underway. “We’re focused on training as a family-friendly club,” she said. “Junior and senior players have been welcomed to train together in a dynamic program designed by Sarah Jude and Krystal Schapel. “Both Sarah and Krystal are qualified personal trainers and have been taking both an individual and group approach to improve player fitness in preparation for the season. “More than 50 percent of our A Grade team will travel from Ballarat, Melbourne or Horsham, so Sarah is again keeping close ties with the girls and external commitments they might have with teams such as Ballarat Sovereigns.” Jude said she looked forward to the season getting underway. “The 2016 team is looking to be very fit and versatile with a mixture of new and continuing players. All players are excited

to be part of the Edenhope-Apsley Saints’ 2016 line-up and look forward to the upcoming season,” she said. Ms Fox said the club would field all grades, with the possible exception of modified netball. “Last year we had 16 girls participate in a Net Set Go Program, however many of the girls are still quite young,” she said. “Once junior training starts, we will assess whether the girls could benefit from a further year of Net Set Go, or whether they are now ready for the moddies transition.”

Season to start Edenhope-Apsley will kickstart its season against HarrowBalmoral at home on April 9. Ms Fox said she expected the Roos to provide some of the Saints’ toughest competition this year, along with Laharum and Natimuk United. “Teams such as Harrow-Balmoral had several pregnancies in 2015, forcing top quality players out of their side,” she said. “We are aware players such as Ebonie Salter will return and be keen to provide quality competition. “Noradjuha-Quantong has also recruited well, with players such as Sharon Fedke enhancing their shooting lineup.”

SPORTS BRIEFS Tyrepower reclaims top

Farrer’s Tyrepower made the most of rival Mitre 10 having a week off in Stawell’s Friday night tennis competition, reclaiming top position on the ladder with a 29-game win over Crowe Horwath. Tyrepower took control of the match from the onset, holding an 18-game lead after the main doubles sets. It ensured the points would go its way by winning its three mixed doubles victories by big margins 8-0, 8-4 and 8-1. Christine Graveson, Nathan Baker and Jesse Barber were the best performers for the winners while for Crowe Horwath’s Riley Hackwill and Zac Armer stood tall all night and combined for an 8-4 win in their men’s six and eight-ranked match. Frewstal made sure it will be participating in this year’s final series by defeating Stawell Toyota by a decisive 45game margin. With most of its original team playing, Frewstal dominated, giving away only six sets to its opponents. Frewstal’s top-ranked men led from the front as Rod Summers and Ben Martin scored the best result of the match, defeating Toyota’s Andrew Dunn and Jake Stainsby 8-1. Toyota’s Mitch Collins and Brae Scantleton were brave in defeat, participating in five out the six winning sets for their side. This week is the final round before finals. Farrer’s Tyrepower and David O Jones Mitre 10 battle it out for bragging rights as overall ladder leaders and Crowe Horwath look to lock in fourth position and keep Stawell Toyota out of a finals spot. Ladder: Farrer’s Tyrepower 163 points, 119.47 percent; Mitre 10 156, 109.68; Frewstal 130, 96.15; Crowe Horwath 115, 90.83; Stawell Toyota 103, 87.85.

Breen primed for Stawell A

ustralia’s fastest woman Melissa Breen and fellow Olympian Lauren Wells will headline the feature women’s event at the 2016 Stawell Gift carnival.

Breen experienced a year of contrasts in 2015, winning the women’s 100-metre final at Australian Athletics Championships before putting in a disappointing performance at IAAF World Championship in Beijing. Wells, Australia’s 400-metre hurdles champion, had a strong year in 2015, winning her eighth national 400m hurdles title and qualifying for the 2016 Rio Olympics. Ararat athlete Sarah Blizzard, who made the final of last year’s 120-metre Strickland Family Women’s Gift, will also target this year’s carnival. Blizzard ran a personal best 11.98 in Sunday’s Canberra Track Classic. The talented teen trains in Canberra under renowned athletics coach Matt Beckenham, who also trains Breen and Wells. Breen won the 2012 women’s gift off scratch and has also competed against the men in heats of the Stawell Gift. She said she was determined to return to Stawell in 2016 after being unable to advance to the final of last year’s women’s gift. “I’m looking forward to embracing the

Stawell spirit again this year. The Stawell Gift is always a challenge, but it’s also such an honour to run from scratch,” she said. “I’ve worked really hard and smart since returning from Beijing and I’m looking forward to what 2016 holds.” In the 2015 women’s gift, Wells ran a semifinal time only two thousandths of a second slower than race winner Grace O’Dwyer. Wells said the Stawell Gift meeting always provided tough competition, enhancing her eagerness to win. “I am still chasing my first sash at Stawell and am just as determined as any other year,” she said. “I am undecided as to what events I will compete in this year, as Easter is just before our national championships, which also doubles as the selection trials for the Olympic Games. “I’m always excited to compete at Stawell. The carnival is always a special event in my eyes; the history and prestige associated with it makes for a great weekend.” In 2015 the carnival reached a significant milestone, with prize money for the women’s gift equalling the men’s for the first time in history. The Stawell Gift carnival kicks off with a calcutta on Friday, March 25, followed by three days of racing action at Stawell’s Central Park.

RACE RETURN: Melissa Breen will again headline the Stawell Gift’s women’s event.

Pietsch to contest Dance Worlds

urra Warra’s Melinda Pietsch will represent Australia in an invitation-only international dance competition in the United States.

Her team, Deakin Onyx, won selection as ‘Team Australia’ to contest the hip-hop division at the The Cheerleading and Dance World Championship. More than 40 countries qualify top teams at their premier national championships, each sending a team to ‘the worlds’ in Orlando, Florida. The April event will bring together more than 9000 cheer and 3500 dance athletes to vie for world champion titles in senior and international club divisions and categories. Pietsch joined Deakin Cheer, a competitive cheerleading and dance club, in 2014 in her first year at Deakin University’s Burwood campus. Last year, Deakin entered a hip-hop dance team, Deakin Onyx, for the first time. The team won its inaugural competition and went on to win the state title in September. Onyx finished second in the Australian All-Star Cheerleading Federation national competition, but its score was enough to secure an invitation to Dance Worlds. The team comprises 14 girls and two coaches. Members have created a Go Fund Me page to help them raise money to cover the cost of training fees, registration and uniforms. People can visit https://www.gofundme. com/deakinonyx for more information or to make a donation. People can also follow the team’s progress on Facebook at https://www. facebook.com/Deakin-Onyx-Worlds-Team2016-1089987597698300/?fref=ts. The competition is at Walt Disney World Resort.

Hornets championships bound Two Horsham Hornets teams will come up against country Victoria’s best young basketballers after qualifying for this year’s junior state championships in Shepparton.

Horsham’s under-14 girls and boys outfits qualified for Basketball Victoria Country’s premier junior competition after impressing in Ballarat on Saturday.

The Hornets went on to triumph over Stawell Wildcats, 44-10, before coming up against a strong Warrnambool outfit. Despite pressure from the Mermaids, Horsham held on for a three-point win, 32-29. The Hornets teams will contest a tournament in Colac next month ahead of the state championships in April.

Occupying the crease to be the key BY DEAN LAWSON uns! That’s the simple formula set to decide whether Jung Tigers or Rupanyup-Minyip will fill the last position available in Horsham Cricket Association’s A Grade top four.

A swinging fourth place has come down to the wire with the Tigers hanging on grimly to fourth place by six points, equivalent to a first-innings win, from the Dunmunkle combine that has superior percentage. The teams clash in a two-day home-and-away finale on what has so far this season been a flat Horsham City Oval deck, which has oozed runs for any batsman who found themselves ‘in’ and playing with confidence. The Tigers are vulnerable and Blue Panthers in with a show of making an 11th-hour charge after results last week loaded the gun for an all-or-nothing showdown. Homers, defending more than 400 at the city oval, crushed the Tigers but spared them the indignity of pursuing a secondinnings win. Rupanyup-Minyip produced

a boil over against premiership aspirants Horsham Saints. The toss of the coin will be crucial and only a torrential downpour would prompt either skippers to contemplate anything except batting first. A key aspect leading into the clash is the Blue Panthers beat the Tigers when the teams last met, with the Tigers struggling to establish batting partnerships against the likes of Clint Midgley, Ryan Metelmann, Glenn Morgan and Brent Hudson. Corey Morgan is also in good form, taking five wickets in the upset over the Saints last week. The Tigers were again in strife with the bat last weekend, missing unavailable Conor Lawson at the top and again relying heavily on captain Tyler Neville in the middle order. Brandon Campbell made an unbeaten 47, showing the Tigers can bat well down the list. The Blue Panthers are lurking ominously and, with Midgley, Dan Clark, Leigh Funcke, Travis Hair, Paul Morgan, Hudson and Daniel Schaper, appear more than capable of hitting a big score. In other games, one of the main interests will be how many runs Homers all-rounder

tallied this week. The Pigeons are now red-hot flag favourites and should be far too good for the Mudlarks. Horsham Saints, meanwhile, will want to bounce back strongly in what should be a good game against Laharum.

Finalists are set in Grampians association with Aradale shoring up fourth place and leading Youth Club by 11 points with only one game remaining in the minor season. Competition leader SwiftsGreat Western gave Youth Club a sniff last week, making only 139, but the Clubbers couldn’t make the most of the opportunity and crashed to be all out for 61. In this weekend’s round of one-dayers Aradale will take on Youth Club while Tatyoon meets Chalambar, Swifts-Great Western meets Pomonal and Halls Gap plays St Andrews. A major highlight of A Grade action last week was 110 to Tatyoon run-machine Jarrod Blandford against Halls Gap and four-wicket hauls to Lachlan Oddie, from Buangor, and Swifts-Great Western’s Tom Fitzgerald. In Wimmera-Mallee A Grade,

Hopetoun desperately needs to defend 171 against Birchip, 1-28, in the final round to hold onto fourth place and guarantee a finals appearance. Hopetoun leads WycheproofNarraport on the ladder by six points and narrow percentage with Wyche needing 52 more runs to beat St Arnaud with six wickets in hand. Birchip is also only six points off the pace but the big challenge might come from St Marys – another side only one win out of the four and in a position to chase outright success against Marnoo. The Saints declared last week at 6-226, Tim Inkster hitting 99 and Paul Rowe 63. By the end of play the Saints had the home side at 5-48. In West Wimmera association’s Pink Stumps Day round, Jeparit will defend 243 against Kiata at Nhill College after opener Adrian King, dropped on one, went on to make 95. Winiam was also in the runs against Rainbow in the official Pink Stump Day game at Davis Park, falling two short of 200. The innings of the day came from 17-year-old Jordan Gurry with a chanceless 65.

Tucker’s AFL debut Darcy Tucker laid claim to keeping his place in a Fremantle team preparing for an AFL pre-season NAB Challenge clash against Adelaide after a spirited debut performance.

SWIM STARS: District 12 age, open and multi-class champions, from left, back, Kelly Ough, Luke Bone, Eloise Wills, Layla Atherton, Tom Castine, Matthew Ough, Ruby Hill, Paris Shrive, front, Billie Donnan, Hugo Hopper, Erin Kearns, Jacob Matuschka, Riley Burke and Maddix Hughes.

Ough triumphs in pool

egional swimming officials have crowned Horsham’s Matthew Ough as the Wimmera’s champion swimmer. Ough topped an outstanding season by winning Wimmera District Swimming Association’s Rose Bowl at Wimmera championships at Warracknabeal. He collected the title as the swimmer at the meet with highest individual aggregate. He produced both technique and endurance by winning 10 of his 12 individual races, including age and open events. Ough also collected 15 and 16 years boys champion and open men’s champion sashes. He was one of 122 swimmers from the region’s District 12 clubs, including Ararat, Stawell, Donald, Horsham, St Arnaud and Warracknabeal to take part in the championships at the weekend. Swimmers competed in a variety of age groups with finals in the afternoon. This year the District 12 titles included multi-class events, offering 50-metre races in four strokes, for the first time. Erin Kearns, 16, from Horsham, won the girls multi-class section. Another Horsham swimmer Eloise Wills was also a standout

in her age group, winning all her individual swims. Others to shine during the championships over a variety of age and open events included Billie Donnan of Ararat, Jacob Matuschka, Tom Castine and Layla Atherton, Horsham, Riley Burke, St Arnaud, Nikki Fleming and Kelly Ough, Warracknabeal. Horsham Swimming Club won the Wimmera Amateur Swimming Association Shield as the team with the highest aggregate for 2014-15. The Barrow Shield based on a standardised aggregate for Wimmera championships went to Donald, with Ararat runner-up. A Shane Hauesler Perpetual Trophy for men’s open 400-metre open freestyle went to Matthew Ough and an Eleanor McRae Perpetual Trophy for women’s open 400-metre freestyle went to Ruby Hill of Horsham. Deacon Briggs, Horsham, won an Alan Williams Memorial Trophy for being 11 to 12 years boys backstroke champion. A Wimmera representative team will now compete at Country Inter-district champi-

onship competition at Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre on Saturday.

The Horsham export and former Wimmera Regional Sports Start of Year, drafted by the Dockers in November, impressed in his team’s 60-point win over Richmond. Tucker, in a post-match interview, said the game was a major step-up in standard for him and he had learned a lot from his experience. “Now I just have to keep going at training and continue to work hard to hopefully get another opportunity,” he said. “Coming into my first game I probably wasn’t as confident, so I’ve got to learn to just back myself in.” Dockers selectors picked Tucker to play at Mandurah’s

Rushton Park alongside many of Fremantle’s recognised star players. Post-match statistics revealed he had 21 disposals. Tucker’s home club is Horsham Saints and he established his credentials while playing for North Ballarat Rebels in AFL Victoria’s under-18 TAC Cup competition. Fremantle plays Adelaide at Sounness Park at Mount Barker, WA, on Sunday. Another Horsham football export Sebastian Ross, 22, also put his hand up for a spot in St Kilda’s round-one team. Ross collected a game-high 22 possessions for the Saints in their 44-point NAB Cup loss to North Melbourne at Wangaratta. Hawthorn’s Dallas Willsmore, from WalpeupUnderbool, had 10 disposals in his team’s NAB Challenge first-round win over Carlton.
