Grain site upgrade BY DEAN LAWSON

rainCorp expects a $1.6-million project to develop its Warracknabeal grain-receival site to be finished before 2015 harvest.

Work has started on the project, which is designed to streamline the transport of produce in and out of Warracknabeal, and end grain-transport issues in the northern Wimmera centre. GrainCorp, community representatives and guests attended a project launch at Warracknabeal yesterday. The Warracknabeal site, which during a busy season can em-

ploy a staff of between 35 and 40, handles tens of thousands of tonnes of grain during productive regional harvests. The development, while designed to take heavy graintransport traffic from the township, will also open the potential for operations to match constant productivity improvements in broadacre farming technology. Graingrowers from a radius of up to 80 kilometres from Warracknabeal transport wheat, barley and canola to the site, and truck traffic through the town has been an issue for many years. GrainCorp Victorian regional

manager Peter Johnston said the development, which had involved working with Yarriambiack Shire Council, would result in significant benefits to growers, the broader community and end-user customers. He said a new northern truck entry and exit to be constructed at the site would reduce up to 80 percent of truck traffic entering Warracknabeal township. He added Warracknabeal had been flagged as a ‘primary site’ for GrainCorp’s national Project Regeneration based on increasing rail-loading capacity. “The reality is that the quicker we load trains and get grain to

export, the greater the chance to get the best possible prices. This is the first update of the site and there will be subsequent updates,” he said. “It is envisaged that we will be able to load the equivalent of 50 B-double trucks in one train in less than four hours out of Warracknabeal.”

Efficiency and safety

Mr Johnston said the project fulfilled an agreement between GrainCorp and Yarriambiack Shire Council, and subsequently the Warracknabeal community, to remove trucks from entering the township. “These changes will also im-

prove road safety within the township for the Warracknabeal community, increase the durability and longevity of the Warracknabeal township’s roads, and take heavy vehicles out of the town and direct them to the site,” he said. He said customers would benefit from reduced transport times commuting to and from the site; significantly improved turnaround times on site; increased efficiency for out-loading customers; truck entry and exit to and from the Henty Highway; and dedicated truck-marshalling capabilities for easier access. Other benefits would include a

relocated and upgraded sample stand and new auto-sampling probe, adding to an existing sample stand; a new road traincapable weighbridge in addition to an existing B-double weighbridge; upgraded internal road infrastructure; and additional bunker storage and segregation capability. GrainCorp owns the largest network of regional storage sites in eastern Australia with a total storage capacity of almost 20-million tonnes. Mr Johnston: “We’ve been working on this with the shire for some time and we’re getting on with the job.”

Simone sets sights on bridge run BY SARAH SCULLY

n average, one woman is killed each week in Australia at the hands of a current or former male partner.

Horsham’s Simone O’Brien was almost one of them. Three years ago, while living in Queensland, Mrs O’Brien’s former fiancé viciously bashed her with a baseball bat after she called off their engagement and told him to leave her alone. The horrific assault – which occurred in front of two of her three children – left Mrs O’Brien fighting for her life in a Brisbane hospital’s intensivecare unit. Her left arm was snapped in two places, her top jaw smashed, and her nose, right cheek-bone and eye-sockets broken. Her skull was shattered – described as ‘mush’ by a neighbour who rushed to help after Mrs O’Brien’s daughters raised the alarm. It took a team of surgeons to put her face back together. “I wasn’t meant to survive the first night,” Mrs O’Brien said. “I have been through and am still going through many operations and treatment, which will be ongoing for many years. “I have scars that will never disappear and I will never see out of my right eye again or smell ever again.” To help with recovery, Mrs O’Brien has set herself two

major goals. The first, which is ongoing, is to shine a light on domestic violence in partnership with White Ribbon Australia. The second, which she will aim to reach on Sunday, is the 10-kilometre Bridge to Brisbane fun run. “It was something I did prior to the assault,” she said. “I used to prepare myself so well for it. After the assault I wasn’t able to run, so I set this as a goal. “I won’t be running the whole 10 kilometres, but to me it doesn’t matter whether I run or walk over the finish line – all I want to do is cross it.” Mrs O’Brien and her husband Trevor – the pair divorced four years before Mrs O’Brien met her attacker and are now reconciled – travelled to Sydney in July to meet with White Ribbon representatives.

National campaign

White Ribbon Australia is a national, male-led campaign to end violence against women. “They are inspirational in what they are trying to achieve,” Mrs O’Brien said. “With their help, Trevor and I are determined to change the attitudes towards violence against women.” Mrs O’Brien made her first public appearance speaking about domestic violence, during a Wimmera Football League match between Stawell and Horsham Saints. She tossed the coin before the sen-

She is pictured with White Ribbon Horsham committee member Mark O’Connor. ior match and addressed the crowd. “I didn’t do it for people to feel sorry for me. I thought, if I could help one person – and they know they can call out for help before it gets to this – then I should do it,” Mrs O’Brien said. “After I spoke, everyone was coming up and cuddling me and fist-pumping me. “It was amazing. Everyone knows the message needs to get out there. We need to help each other to do it.” Mrs O’Brien said she would like to see more domestic violence education in Wimmera sporting clubs and schools.

“I’m excited to be part of the White Ribbon Horsham committee and seeing what we can do,” she said. “I’m happy to be able to raise money for such an important cause through Sunday’s run.” The Bridge to Brisbane offers participants an opportunity to raise money for charities. Mrs O’Brien has raised more than $4000 for White Ribbon Australia on an online fundraising page, smashing her $700 goal. “I’m stoked. The money will go to a fantastic cause. I’ve had some people ring me and say they could only give $5. Well you know what, $5 will help. It

all helps,” she said. Mrs O’Brien said she had received amazing support from the Horsham community in the past three years. “Everyone stops and asks how I’m going, without really asking me anything,” she said. “It’s really positive and really good and I can’t thank them enough.” Mrs O’Brien said positivity was crucial in her recovery. “I try to face all my treatment with a positive attitude and think, ‘it’s one step closer to recovery’,” she said. Mrs O’Brien regularly flies back to Brisbane for treatment. “Prior to my last major surgery in March, I was going up there every 10 days,” she said. “After the run I’ve got four days of solid treatment. “I’m trying not to think about it, because even saying it makes me tired. But I’m staying positive. Sunday is going to be a nice, sunny day and I’m just focused on that goal.” Mrs O’Brien said setting goals helped her from succumbing to depression. “If you don’t have goals and keep positive and keep your brain active, it’s easy to sit there and ask yourself why it happened,” she said. Mrs O’Brien said although major surgery in March knocked her around, it also had her feeling more like her old self. “Knowing I’ve got my skull

back in now – it’s not exposed from when they had to take it out – it’s a totally different feeling,” she said. “I’m getting back to looking semi-normal for the first time since I’ve been here. “I remember when we first came here, my son Zac said to me, ‘Mum, if you don’t mind, can you not come pick me up from school?’ I will always live with that. Now, he’s proud to take me to places. He’s proud of what I’ve achieved.” Mrs O’Brien said her children, Gabby, 18, Ashlyn, 14, and Zac, 12, had also played a major role in her recovery. She said they supported her decision to speak out to help others. “I want to encourage people to speak out – yell out – if something is wrong,” she said. “You never know what is happening behind closed doors. “I really emphasise it doesn’t have to be your own partner. It could be your partner’s best mate’s girlfriend having trouble. Don’t ignore the signs and don’t be ashamed if you are having trouble. People are here to support you.” People can visit https:// b2b2015.everydayhero.com/ au/simone-1 to donate to Mrs O’Brien’s campaign. • If you or someone you know is experiencing violence, call 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 for support.

Weekly Advertiser staff success Two staff members at The Weekly Advertiser have earned accolades at two awards nights in Melbourne. Sub-editor and journalist Lauren Henry received a highly commended award from the Rural Press Club of Victoria for best features series in the nondaily newspaper section. The award was for Henry’s ‘Time to make a stand’ feature, coinciding with White Ribbon Day in November last year. It explored police statistics showing Horsham and AraWednesday, August 26, 2015

rat municipalities had among the highest rates of violence against women in Victoria. Judges commented that the feature highlighted one of the region’s most important, but often ignored, social problems. “The front cover delivered an eye-catching graphic and a well-selected quote. The articles covered a variety of events and perspectives while presenting a topic worthy of community recognition.” Advertising account manager Lee Meadows received

two special mentions in the best print advertisements in the over 7000-circulation category in the Victorian Country Press Association advertising awards. The advertisements were for Horsham’s biggest car sale and Equip Physiotherapy. Judges comments on the car advertisement: “The big and bold in your face colourful centre-spread position on gloss newsprint was a dynamic and attention-grabbing example of what newspapers can deliver – impact!”

Police find missing man A missing Pimpinio man, 62, was found safely near Arapiles on Sunday after missing for nearly 24 hours. The man, who was reported missing just after 8.30pm Saturday, was taken to Wimmera Base Hospital, Horsham, for treatment of dehydration.

Plant-out project success

ore than 160 enthusiasts from across Victoria joined Wimmera-Mallee volunteers to plant 9000 seedlings during Hindmarsh Landcare Network’s annual ACE Radio Project Hindmarsh plant-out weekend.

A former Bosisto’s Eucalyptus property at Antwerp, now owned by Tim and Ben Inkster, was the site for the plant-out, which also included Green Army participants and Wimmera Health Care Group staff members. Hindmarsh Landcare facilitator Steve

Hemphill said the weekend was a wonderful event. “Volunteers were well looked after across the weekend with food and drinks supplied,” he said. Network chairman Cliff Unger, who welcomed and thanked all attendees for their involvement, echoed the sentiments. “Project Hindmarsh’s motto is City and Country, working together for the environment has a long history of creating biolinks between the Big and Little desserts, Lake Hindmarsh, Wimmera River and the South Australian border,” he said.

District groups that benefited through catering and support opportunities included Dimboola Lions Club, Dimboola Scout Group, Antwerp Hall committee, Antwerp Tennis Club, Dimboola Lutheran School and Dimboola Agricultural and Pastoral Society. ACE Radio Broadcasters, through The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM, Luv-a-Duck, Lowan Foods, Bosisto, Victorian Landcare, Hindmarsh Shire Council and Wimmera Catchment Management Authority provided financial support for the event.

Heritage works at Horsham Town Hall Heritage painting is underway at Horsham Town Hall and Regional Art Gallery.

The hall was added to the Victorian Heritage Register in 2011. Horsham Mayor Mark Radford said he was pleased to see this part of the redevelopment start. “Photographs show samples of what the final product might look like,” he said. “It’s exciting to see.” The council’s technical services director John Martin said sample areas had been painted to review recommended heritage colours. He said painting of the new auditorium ceiling was complete, while much of the Pynsent Street side of the building – including dressing rooms and office space – had been plastered, with painting starting in some areas. Mr Martin said other works in progress included tiling in

Security fear at Ararat jail M

ember for Ripon Louise Staley challenged Corrections Minister Wade Noonan in Parliament to answer whether Ararat’s Hopkins Correctional Centre was housing maximum-security prisoners.

In Parliament question time, Ms Staley asked Mr Noonan if maximum-security prisoners had been reclassified as mediumsecurity prisoners so they could be transferred to Ararat during a clean-up of the Metropolitan Remand Centre. Hundreds of beds at Ravenhall prison were closed after a riot broke out on June 30. Hopkins Correctional Centre houses low-to-medium security prisoners, including a high proportion of sex offenders, and protection or special-needs prisoners. Mr Noonan was unable to answer Ms Staley’s question and was ordered by the speaker to provide an answer to the house. “I’m concerned that my community of Ararat now has highsecurity prisoners in the prison there,” Ms Staley said. “A lot of the people that live in my community work in that prison and they haven’t been trained for high-security prisoners. “They’ve been trained for me-

dium-security prisoners, so there clearly is a risk to them as prison officers and, I would argue, to the community.” A Corrections Victoria spokesperson confirmed an emergency prisoner transfer was made to the Ararat prison on the night of the riot. “These prisoners were held in lock-down until the standard security assessment process could be undertaken,” they said. “Prisoners not classified as medium security were transferred to other prisons. “All prisoners at Hopkins have undergone the standard assessment process and are classified as medium security.” In response to the riot, the State Government announced last week corrections officers now had the power to use a bean-bag firearm to help de-escalate situations and keep staff safe. Mr Noonan said bean-bag rounds were non-lethal and targeted individuals at a distance to briefly immobilise them. “Our prison staff worked hard to restore order at the Metropolitan Remand Centre in extremely difficult circumstances,’’ he said. “Bean-bag rounds will provide prisons with an additional and effective non-lethal option to keep them safe while dealing with serious unrest.”

VicRoads confident of bypass report accuracy

icRoads regional director Ewen Nevett is confident technical reports supporting the organisation’s preferred routes for a Horsham bypass are accurate.

At a meeting last week, Horsham councillors expressed concerns about VicRoads’ proposed amendment to the Horsham Planning Scheme. Cr David Grimble said technical reports attached to the proposed amendment should provide a sound basis to justify a preferred alignment. “The technical reports do not align with VicRoads’ preferred options B2 and D,” he said. “They contain factual errors and a lack of consistency. “There is no real justification, rationale or background detail in the reports that

gives me confidence VicRoads has the best option.”

Accurate

Mr Nevett said he was confident the information in the technical reports was accurate. “We are happy to discuss with the council or other submitters any concerns they have with the material exhibited,” he said. “VicRoads has liaised with the council throughout the planning process and is aware of issues being raised. “The council has made a submission as part of the Planning Scheme Amendment process.” The submission period closed on August 14. Mr Nevett said VicRoads would review the submissions and pass them on to an independent planning panel, along with its response.

He said if a solution could be reached between VicRoads and the submitter, the submission could be withdrawn. Mr Nevett said a directions hearing would occur in mid to late-September if required, with a panel hearing in mid to late-October. “Dates will be confirmed by Planning Panels Victoria next month,” he said. “There will then be an opportunity for submitters to appear before an independent planning panel, appointed by the Minister for Planning. “Submissions will be considered by the independent panel, which will make a series of recommendations to the Minister for Planning based on the submissions received. “Once finalised, land will be reserved for a future bypass and a Public Acquisition Overlay applied to the land.”

Business owner on health board JUNG MARKET Warracknabeal business owner Sally Gebert thrives on challenges and is both excited and inspired by her latest mission.

Sally has a position on Rural Northwest Health’s management board and is determined to dedicate the same passion and commitment that she has given to her business ventures. Ms Gebert’s varied background started in education before a major shift into coordinating and organising large-scale stage presentations in Sydney and then writing and presenting training programs. Her business life amplified when she and husband Kevin bought a hair and beauty salon in Sydney. The couple decided it was time for a ‘tree’ change and bought the former Commercial Hotel in Kevin’s home town of Warracknabeal. They renovated the hotel and went with a new metropolitan image before changing its name to Creekside. It is now an award-winning business that features in State Government promotions highlighting rural life.

Sally said the move to Warracknabeal was more for leisure but the hotel had proved so popular that she was just as busy as before. “I believe in Warracknabeal

as a community and in wanting it to be a better and more vibrant place to live,” she said. “Anything I can do through tourism and health to help provide that lifestyle for people is

what I’m passionate about. I want it to be a destination for people and a reason for people to come back home.” Ms Gebert believes Rural Northwest Health is an example of what could be achieved in a remote rural town. “RNH is very much community-focused and it has proven you don’t have to be a big city hospital to be successful,” she said. “It’s already proven how awesome a health service it is with the awards it’s won in the past few years. It shows you can still live in the country and achieve great things.” Ms Gebert said while she didn’t have a background in health, she believed she had much to offer the service. “I’ve already attended three board meetings as an observer and there’s a lot of terminology I have to learn,” she said. “I attended the strategic planning weekend and that was overwhelming but it was also really exciting for me and I can see opportunity. “I want RNH to always provide the best we can with what we’ve got for the community.”

EDITORIAL

the embankment like a cyclist on a velodrome camber and had somehow avoided rolling. We determined that fluid dripping from the car was water from a table drain and not petrol, and hot rubber from tyres, not fire, had caused the smoke. The assessment of the circumstance seemed almost as quick as the incident. After a moment of deliberation we called triple zero where, with the help of GPS navigation, we relayed details of the incident to authorities. Only moments seemed to pass and police were on the scene in what was an impressive response, considering we had hardly seen or noticed a police presence on the freeway. As we drove off leaving police to deal with the scene, it

was hard to avoid contemplating how we would have reacted had the accident involved serious injury or death. The incident occurred on a high-quality surface when there was little traffic, yet the driver, who had been lucky to escape unscathed, had somehow lost control. The experience galvanised thoughts about how quickly something out of the ordinary can happen on our roads, regardless of conditions. Considering many of us are constantly travelling on the highway, the question again emerged: how well prepared were we to deal with the unexpected? We safely made it home to the Wimmera without further incident – thank goodness.

hat would I do and how would I react? It’s a question some of us who have never been first on the scene of a major incident or accident involving human trauma have asked.

A couple of The Weekly Advertiser team members went some way to answering the question while returning on the Western Highway from media awards in Melbourne last weekend. About 300 metres ahead on the road at Windemere between Ballarat and Beaufort, the pair noticed a white puff of smoke suddenly appear beyond a bend and on reaching the bend immediately saw a woman frantically exiting a

brown sedan, which had come to rest in a table drain. Did we stop? Of course we did – there was no other option. Yet the driver of a car a short distance behind us showed no such inclination and sped ahead as we pulled off the road to provide help. The woman, who was the only person in the car, was unhurt but obviously badly shaken and needed reassurance that everything would be okay. A quick observation of heavy skid marks on the road and gouged-out sections across a large embankment suggested the car had left the road at almost a right angle. It travelled on its side along

YOUR SAY City-centric slogan SIR – I notice that Louise Staley has started using the term ‘city-centric’ to describe the Andrews government in her press statements. It’s a tired old slogan used by different governments over the years to try to create a perception that one side of politics is more in love with the country than another. Indeed, the Bracks government often used the term to refer to the Coalition as ‘city-centric’ in the years after the Kennett government pillaged the bush.

Ms Staley perhaps has forgotten her roots as a city Liberal. The seat of Ripon was not Ms Staley’s first choice. In fact it wasn’t even her second or third choice either. The city-born Ms Staley, the ‘Willaura grain grower’, in fact ran for pre-selection for the Melbourne seat of Casey and failed. She then ran for the Melbourne seat of Menzies and failed. Then she ran for Wannon and failed, then after her second attempt, she won pre-selection for Ripon. I don’t claim to be some sort of expert on

the bush. Like Ms Staley, I too came from Melbourne to the Ripon electorate. Coming from a city background does not mean that you cannot develop a connection to a country area nor does it mean that you cannot empathise with country people. But don’t paint yourself as some sort of country oracle, when you’ve only lived in the area for less than 10 years and when your first two seats of choice were in metropolitan Melbourne.

Farewell to one of life’s characters W

e tend to use the term ‘larger than life’ too often. But if there was ever an example where the expression fitted the individual perfectly it was certainly Max Galpin.

Max, formerly of Edenhope, Horsham and in later years Torquay, died on August 18. He was 80. His death, the result of a debilitating short-term illness, brought to an end one of the Wimmera’s most colourful characters. A son of Ron and Bruni Galpin, he was born on July 27, 1935, at Edenhope where he enjoyed an active childhood. Blessed with a vibrant and unpredictable personality, Max could always claim that he could comfortably mix and socialise with a broad crosssection of the community. This ability led to him being well-

known across the region. Few who knew him in his later years never knew he was also a gifted athlete and was as good at tennis and football as he was at applying himself to hard work, cutting timber from the bush or sharing his unique and mischievous sense of humour. You would never know talking to him, but records from the 1950s show that Max as a young athlete caught the eye of Australian tennis legend Harry Hopman, which led to invitations to train with Australia’s Davis Cup squad. They also show he joined Graeme Mackenzie for a stint with VFL club Fitzroy before returning home to concentrate on the family business. Perhaps one of the great tragedies of Wimmera sport is that Max Galpin had only a brief opportunity to show off his sporting prowess. In truth, the fact he lived until

FIVE-DAY forecast

VALE: Max Galpin. he was 80 would have been a surprise to anyone who was at the scene in 1959 when he, at 22, suffered horrific injuries from a falling tree during a west Wimmera bushfire. The burning limb almost cut him in half and he suffered horrific internal injuries. Amaz-

ingly, he survived but had to endure a lifetime of pain, operations, therapies and treatment. Max, who from a young age threw himself into all aspects of saw-milling, overcame expectations to largely regain his physical functionality. He could never play football again

but he could live, laugh and love – the things that really mattered to him. His son Tony said his father suffered more injuries along the way, some serious, but shrugged them off and at one stage said he no longer cared about pain. “He camped in the bush to work for eight years, coming home on weekends. At first he lived under a corrugated iron lean-to before upgrading to a musty old bus,” he said. “He won significant rewards for his hard work. He dressed well and drove sports cars and generally had a wonderful time attending various events across western Victoria.” Tony added that amid the jokes and fun, his father’s quiet generosity and ability to make people feel good about themselves without demanding kudos or thanks in return underpinned his personality. “He belittled people and nev-

er big-noted himself or fell to pride, envy or greed. He was bereft of any sinister traits and it’s rare that you can say that about anyone,” he said. Max worked with his brother Neville in the saw-milling business before retiring at 64, and eventually shifting to Torquay with his wife Shirley to be closer to their family. Max is survived by Shirley and children Kim, Mandy and Tony and grand-children Sam, James, Ben and Miranda and siblings Del, Joy and Neville. Tony perhaps best summed up his father with a final note. He wrote: “He rests in peace but the wonderful memories he created live on. Think of him and smile. And as Max would have said, ‘stay ordinary’.” Max’s family buried him on Monday, among gum trees that were so much part of his life, at Bellbrae cemetery near Torquay.

Nhill Air Show attendees can experience the thrill of 1950s’ airline travel by arriving at the show in a Douglas DC-3. The aircraft flew the Melbourne to Adelaide route in the 50s, stopping at Nhill. Show convenor Andrew Kube said the aircraft, first flown in 1935, was known worldwide for safe and reliable air travel. “It is arguably one of the most influential aircraft ever built, and after 80 years some are still flying commercially,” he said.

Mr Kube said the committee teamed up with Shortstop Jet Charter to offer a unique experience for the air show on October 10. He said a Douglas DC-3 flight would leave Essendon Airport at 8.30am, arriving at Nhill in time for the flying program at 11.30am. The return flight will depart Nhill at noon the following day, arriving at Essendon at 2.30pm. He said seats were limited and people could email nhillairshow@gmail.com or visit www. nhillairshow.com.au for more information.

Kealy’s concerns over fire review timeframe

FOCUS ON HEARING: Wimmera people celebrated Hearing Awareness Week at Horsham Centre Cinemas on Monday. Australian Hearing Horsham community hearing advisor Bree Boag said about 45 people enjoyed morning tea and a screening of The Man from UNCLE. “We also had an audiologist on hand so people could ask questions about their hearing aids or about getting hearing aids,” she said. “Before the movie we showed some feel-good stories about hearing and the effects it has on people’s lives.” The organisation also offered free hearing checks in Pynsent Street. Miss Boag, left, is pictured with specialist audiologist Sandie Simmons outside a hearing bus. Picture: SARAH SCULLY

New management for Ararat leisure services

nified Community Sports and Leisure will take over management of Ararat’s recreation and aquatics services.

The company is headed by three leisure-industry professionals with a reputation for delivering management services in partnership with councils and communities, focusing on sport and recreation. Ararat Rural City Council expects a transition of services to start at the end of September. Company director Gerard Murphy said he was looking forward to working with the council to manage and grow facilities and to being part of the community. “We cater for people of all levels by meeting their training needs and looking for opportunities to work with the resident sporting groups to develop athletes, coaches and volunteers,” he said. “We will work with the council to establish a way to attract,

stage and retain events with community benefits that complement sporting and health outcomes. We specialise in working closely with communities and developing and maintaining quality facilities.” Unified Community Sports and Leisure replaces YMCA in the role. Ararat chief executive Andrew Evans, in announcing the change, thanked the YMCA for its service. “The YMCA has been a valued corporate citizen of Ararat for more than 60 years and we thank them for their service and hope to continue to partner with them in their delivery of other important services to the community,” he said. “This decision for change is not one that has been taken lightly. The council has undertaken a rigorous process as required by the Local Government Act in developing a new contract for the future delivery of recreation and aquatic ser-

vices that meets the current and future needs of our community. “The council has been focused on gaining best value for rate payers of Ararat Rural City. “Though we might experience some interruption to normal operations during the initial changeover, we expect to deliver an improved service as part of the new contract. “Our new partners are experienced in making this transition and are providing similar services to the nearby councils of Central Goldfields and Loddon Shire.” The new agreement includes operational management of Ararat Indoor Aquatics and Leisure Centre, the Peter O’Rorke Memorial Outdoor Pool at Lake Bolac, Willaura Memorial Outdoor Pool and Ararat Olympic Outdoor Pool in partnership with the council and the respective community advisory committees of each pool.

“Each of these community groups has a passion for retaining the patronage, maintenance and viability of their pools,” Mr Evans said. “They have an important role to play as part of this new partnership in assisting to develop vibrant facilities that meet the needs of our communities.”

Re-branding

The change will see the centre known as Ararat YMCA re-branded as Ararat Recreation Centre. Mr Murphy said the cost of membership would not increase and to the hours of operation would not change. Members will be required to re-sign their membership approvals with ‘Unified Community Sport and Leisure’. “We are a boutique business with no middle management and we hope to introduce new classes and activities, which meet the specific needs of local people. We believe we can do more things here,” he said.

A timeframe for submissions to a state Fire Services Review has prompted Member for Lowan Emma Kealy to air concerns that a Melbournebased union might gain control of country fire-fighting operations. Ms Kealy said there were fears the State Government would use the review to merge the Country Fire Authority with the Metropolitan Fire Brigade. “Local CFA volunteers and communities have been given just three weeks to write and lodge their submissions to the Labor government’s fire services review,” Ms Kealy said. “Following that, there’s only four weeks for all submissions to be considered and for the final report to be developed. “You have to wonder how genuine this review is. Does the Labor government really want to hear from our selfless CFA volunteers, or has it heard enough already from its union mates?” Ms Kealy said if the government took CFA volunteers’ views seriously, they would

provide them with adequate time to make submissions. “To provide just a few weeks for written submissions to this review is offensive to our CFA volunteers and country communities,” she said. “At the same time, the government is taking more than 12 months to look into gaming-machine arrangements. Why the rush for this review?” In other fire-fighting news, Commonwealth Minister for Justice Michael Keenan has announced funding of $2.712-million to enhance bushfire mitigation in Victoria. The funding is part of the National Bushfire Mitigation Program. State Minister for Emergency Services Jane Garrett welcomed the contribution and said the State Government and other organisations would match the funding. Mr Keenan said it was vital the Commonwealth partnered with Victoria to better prepare regional communities for bushfires.

Garage sale trails across Northern Grampians Northern Grampians Shire households, schools and community groups will join thousands of people across the country to participate in the fifth annual Garage Sale Trail.

More than 150 councils are driving the awardwinning community and sustainability event, Garage Sale Trail. Northern Grampians Cr Kevin Erwin said organisers expected more than 10,000 people to host garage sales on October 24. The Garage Sale Trail coincides with the Stawell Show this year. Cr Erwin said Wimmera residents would have an opportunity to experience two great events on the one day. “Northern Grampians Shire Council is proud to be involved in bringing this national initiative to our residents,” he said. “Garage Sale Trail helps people to think creatively about how we can reuse items that might otherwise be put out for waste collection and possibly end up in landfill. “It is a fun and social way to get to know your neighbours and connect with the broader

community while raising money for yourself or others. It’s a grassroots event that has swept across the country, so we’re pleased to be a part of something bigger that’s making some positive change.” Northern Grampians’ first registered Garage Sale Trail seller Mandy Smith said it was an opportunity to clear out some unused items after moving house earlier this year. “We had a big clean-out prior to moving and found we have a lot of great stuff that we just don’t need any more,” she said. “It’s all in great condition though and it would be a shame to have to throw it out. “The Garage Sale Trail is giving us the perfect chance to pass it on to people who can use it and make a bit of money at the same time.” Registration is free and includes a seller webpage, which can be personalised and used to list items that will be for sale on the day. People can visit www.garagesaletrail.com.au to register. Those who register before September 25 will receive a seller pack with items to ensure a successful garage sale.

Starts: 11am sharp, Sun. Sept. 6th, 2015 Mechanics Hall, Duncan St, Murtoa Viewing: Saturday from 1pm to 5pm and Sunday from 9am

Care organisation to update to iPads W

immera Uniting Care will use a $20,000 cash injection to buy iPads to help to clients who live in geographically remote areas.

The money from Share, the fundraising arm of Uniting Care and Uniting Church services for Victorian and Tasmanian communities, comes after the Federal Government announced it would slash $271-million in social service grants across Australia. Wimmera Uniting Care will use the new iPads to provide more of its core services, including financial counselling, to people who live in remote parts of the region Acting chief executive Leeanne Thomson said staff members would set up workstations and iPads in West Wednesday, August 26, 2015

Wimmera, Yarriambiack and Hindmarsh shires. “It’s targeted towards our regional clients who would often miss out on a service due to isolation, or face reduced service delivery because of their inability to travel long distances,” Ms Thomson said. “People can’t drive for more than an hour to see a family support worker or counsellors. But with advances in new technology, we can literally connect with someone virtually at a click of a button.” The program will run for 12 months with trained staff set to communicate electronically with clients fortnightly. “We will train our clients in the set-up and use of the technology to ensure that there is a consistent, seamless approach that ensures the program runs

The iPads will be used towards the end of a client’s journey with us, where we can have regular contact in the period towards their exit from the program,” Ms Thomson said. “By using this technology, the agency will be ensuring isolated communities are not disadvantaged or discriminated against through lack of muchneeded services because of their geographic location.” Officials estimate that the combined use of the iPads and workstations will help 140 clients during the pilot phase.

Biodiversity ‘gets serious’ T

he 18th Wimmera Biodiversity Seminar at Great Western Community Hall on September 3 will focus on the science involved in biodiversity.

Climate change and variability expert Professor David Karoly will be keynote after-dinner speaker at the event. Professor Karoly is a member of the Climate Change Authority providing advice to the Federal Government and the Wentworth Group of Concerned Scientists. The annual seminar is a collaboration between Wimmera Catchment Management Authority, Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning and Trust for Nature. Seminar organising committee member La Vergne Lehmann said the committee had decided it was time to ‘get serious’ about the science of biodiversity. “We want to challenge people with some of the new technology that can be found in biodiversity research, the citizen science activities that we can all get involved in, some of the truly inspiring people working with the environment and biodiversity and how climate science is going to impact on the Wimmera’s biodiversity,” she said. She said the day would include a variety of speakers including Peter Brenton from the Atlas of Living Australia and Dr Phillip Roetman, a Research Fellow at the University of South Australia.

Mr Brenton will share how the Atlas and it’s Citizen Science Central and Field Capture tools capture and manage data of citizen science, ecological and works-based projects and Dr Roetman will talk his interest in citizen science and people’s attitudes towards the environment. Another seminar committee member Pauline Rudolph said one of the critical aspects of Citizen Science was in the engagement of average people to help with the collection and analysis of data for scientific projects. “The Wimmera is no exception with some great examples of citizen science ranging from Mallee fowl monitoring, red-tail black cockatoo surveys and Waterwatch programs,” she said. Other speakers who will focus on technology in science include Matt Herring, who has studied wildlife on more than 900 farms with a focus on waterbirds and wetlands, and Francisco Almeida, a professional archaeologist who now collaborates with Victorian Aboriginal organisations in identifying, recording, managing and protecting cultural heritage through the use of three-dimensional modeling. Bronwyn Hradsky will share results of studies into predator-fox tracking and Clare McCutcheon will share the various technological methods used to survey various animals. The day session will conclude with a field tour of science projects. People can register on Eventbrite website. Registrations close on August 28.

STEP BACK IN TIME: Horsham Mayor Mark Radford and Cr Sue Exell dressed in old-fashioned clothing to launch the John Dickson Derry irrigation memorial drinking fountain in Roberts Place, Horsham. Picture: CONTRIBUTED

Drinking fountains in Horsham Horsham Rural City’s new drinking fountains pay tribute to the region’s former irrigation system. Mayor Mark Radford and Cr Sue Exell launched the John Dickson Derry memorial fountain at Roberts Place in Horsham’s central business

district. There is a second fountain at Sawyer Park between the Wimmera River and the soundshell. The council sold its remaining water rights in the Wimmera irrigation system in 2012. A portion of the proceeds from the sale was reserved for a memorial.

A part of the project included installing drinking fountains in Horsham displaying information about the region’s irrigation history. The information boards on display at each fountain also comprise a mural depicting the irrigation system and how it affected life in the region.

Cod and spiny crayfish season set to close Fishing authorities have reminded anglers that Murray cod season will close on at the start of next month. Fisheries Victoria executive director Travis Dowling said the three month closure for Murray cod provided the species with a chance to

breed and contribute to future native fish stocks. “Anglers who take Murray cod during the closed season face an on-the-spot fine of $455 or a court appearance if the matter is more serious,” Mr Dowling said.

% 20OFF

The Murray cod season re-opens to fishing on December 1, 2015. A closed season for spiny freshwater crayfish started from September 1. Anglers will need to wait until June 2016 to pursue crayfish.

She also completed the club leadership program in 2014 and continues to develop her skills in this area.

Indulging in a writing passion “Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead,” – Gene Fowler. BY SUJATHA UMAKANTHAN

hen it is a personal column about life and experiences in general, it should be easy enough to keep the words flowing, right? Or at the least, I should be able to wing it. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.

On the contrary, I regularly stumble across writer’s block and when this happens I usually chalk it up to lethargy induced by winter. Maybe the cold weather freezes my few remaining creative cells, making it a struggle to come up with any interesting topics. Or perhaps my interactions with the outside world are limited during this season and, given my social life is at its lowest ebb, my writing too slides into hibernation. However as farfetched it sounds, the truth is the gaps between my posts get too noticeable around this season. So while racking my brains on what to write, I couldn’t help thinking about how I had stumbled into writing in the first place. It was about five years ago when the writing bug caught me. I had just wrapped up my

studies overseas and was flying back home to Brisbane. Half-awake and thoroughly bored and listless, I sat there watching the sunrise while contemplating my next step in life. If I believed in signs or symbolism, I would say that the sunrise seemed apt, signalling a fresh beginning. As it was, I was at the crossroads of life then and I wanted something more than a hobby that would invigorate me and keep me company.

Blogs As blogs were the rage at that time, I decided to jump on the blogging bandwagon too and have a shot at writing. It was actually quite insane now that I think about it. I had just completed my thesis and was exhausted by word smithing in general. Technically I should have run away from anything to do with writing. However, for some bizarre

GARAGE DOOR SALES

reason fuelled by lack of sleep and original thought, I convinced myself that writing could be the cathartic experience I needed. Before I lost my lightbulb moment, I started clicking away on my keyboard and by the time my flight landed, I had my first post for my blog. I would be fibbing if I said the piece was worth reading. But hey, one of the luxuries of having your own blog is that you can get away with your over-indulgence into selfexpression and to some extent writing without rules. Over the years, my writing continued and I have been quite fortunate at what started as a purely self-centred exercise. A pandering to the self has grown to reach a wider audience, while I still get to enjoy the thrills of writing. I feel the occasional twinges of guilt that perhaps in producing more palatable subjects to the general public, my articles might not fully boast of the earlier candidness or the vibrancy that used to define my writing. Nevertheless, the years haven’t dimmed my passion for writing and I still thoroughly enjoy having a voice, backed by my own distinct style of writing, and perhaps somewhere in all of this earning an identity too. Writer’s block for sure but no regrets whatsoever from my spur-of-the-moment decision to write.

Pearls of wisdom on finance affairs

s we approach retirement some people start to panic a little, wondering if they are truly looking forward to the time of their life when they no longer have to work.

All of a sudden something they have been pining for is becoming real. Instead of worrying, have a read of the following tips and if necessary, act now. After all, it’s your future – and it could be here sooner than you think. 1. What do you want and how will you get it? What are your goals and objectives for your retirement? Write out a plan that sees you enjoying the fruits of your labours. Then make sure your finances can achieve your goals. If not, do something about it now while you still have time. Be realistic and set achievable timeframes. 2. It’s not just about returns; remember the risks. Every investment has some degree of risk. Cash is considered the safest because there’s a good chance your money will still be in the bank when you need it. The downside is that it pays the lowest return; it isn’t tax effective; and doesn’t tend to keep pace with inflation. To achieve higher returns and

make your money work harder, you need to take appropriate risk. Understand the differences between cash, fixed interest, shares and property and make your decisions wisely. 3. Share it around. To help reduce risk, share your investments across several asset classes and within those asset classes as well. The right balance will depend on your financial objectives, the amount of time you have available to invest, and your risk tolerance. 4. Don’t forget super. Superannuation will be your bank account when you are no longer working so you should be considering ways to boost your superannuation balance before retirement. But be aware the tax benefits are not always equal, so make sure you have a balance of inside-super and outside-super investments. 5. Tax. Tax is the trickiest area of all. Always make sure you get good advice on investing tax-effectively. A simple restructure of an underlying asset, investment vehicle or ownership structure

can help you to minimise the amount of tax you pay and maximise your after-tax return. 6. Retirement can last another lifetime. With medical technology and improved lifestyles we are living much longer than our previous generations. The older you get, the longer you’re likely to live. If you’ve managed to survive early risks, such as accidents or illnesses, your life expectancy actually increases. Be prepared for a longer retirement than your parents. This means that your money must last longer, so don’t be too conservative with your investments. 7. Stay cool. You are in this for the long term so when markets fluctuate and investments unexpectedly fall in value, don’t panic and sell. Sit down with your adviser, review your portfolio and stay focused on your long-term goals and objectives. 8. Keep learning. You are never too old to learn. Financial advisers have an important role in giving you tailored guidance, but you still need to make your own informed decisions about your financial plan. Make sure you understand your plan and if not, ask questions or do some research.

Expectations can be dangerous

’ve written about the importance of communication in previous columns but let’s take a look at it from another angle.

Unspoken expectations, whether it be from the perspective of the employer, employee or customer can be dangerous to great business outcomes and job contentment. Equally, unspoken expectations can jeopardise good staff and customer relations. Let’s look at a couple of scenarios: An employee returns from lunch 10 minutes later than regularly allowed. This is all the employer sees because they are not at work at the beginning of the day to see the employee gets to work 15 minutes before their scheduled work time to prep the business before opening. This might seem trivial but the damage that this can cause over time exacerbated by the mounting of other small unspoken expectations can be immense. Animosity on both parts can then sour a working relationship that if discussed could be easily resolved. Or – an employee continually undertakes the trivial tasks within a business such as emptying bins, tidying up, vacuuming, dusting and so on.

talking

BUSINESS with Wendy Mitchell

They wonder why no one else ever takes the initiative to do the jobs. Other employees might think the person enjoys doing the jobs so leave them to it. Discussing who is actually in charge of any action within a business is vital, it removes second-guessing from the equation, which can cause unresolved resentment. From discussions with employers and employees, there are much bigger and more important issues that occur within businesses where people are just not having the conversations and clarifying issues that need to be brought into the open, discussed and resolved. Pent-up anxiety from unspoken expectations can have devastating results for individuals and businesses. Many of these could be easily resolved with simple discussion and honesty. The end result of not discussing issues is that a valuable employee might be eventually lost if not for some simple changes. Don’t let small issues mount to become much bigger than

what they are. Deal with them promptly and ask your employees regularly what can be done better and if there is anything that concerns them about their job role. Most people want to keep their job so don’t allow the fear factor to creep into the equation. I often hear phrases like ‘I wish they would just do this...’ Don’t wish it, say it. Communicate and be surprised with the results. Short weekly meetings with staff are a must to ensure everyone is content including the employer. If you have an expectation of your employees then make it clear and be consistent with all your staff. No one is a mind-reader so don’t run your business without making your expectations clear. The ‘unspoken’ is often the silent killer in an organisation. The ‘unspoken’ are the expectations that we have of people that we don’t talk about and we don’t write down. These are your organisational cultural rules that you impose on people – but never tell them about. They have no idea and they are often breaking the rules and are completely clueless that they are doing it. This is usually because they have never been told. • Source: engagedhr.com.

Brad Thomas

Coach and disciplined on-field leader and midfielder who has a commanding aura in the heat of battle when the ball is in dispute.

Tom Eckel

Gifted on-baller and co-captain with outstanding ball sense. Constantly maturing as a player who now, as well as getting the ball himself, brings team-mates into the game.

Jack Musgrove

Hitting his straps at the right end of the season and emerging as a serious goalkicker. Has produced great form in the past month.

Jackson Dark

Athletic utility and all-round sportsman who has more than consolidated his position as one of the rising talents of Wimmera Football League. Can play tall or small, depending on the circumstance.

David Morris

Workhorse midfielder sharing captaining duties with Eckel. A critical ball-winner and link player who sets high standards and is likely to be a pace-setter this weekend.

James Delahunty

A strong-marking forward who straightens Stawell up in the forward 50. Working his way into top form.

Scott Driscoll

Stawell Warriors

Stawell: The underdog and loving it T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he expectations of Stawell coach Brad Thomas for this week’s Wimmera Football League finals are simple. He obviously wants his young group of Warriors to play hard, tough and exciting football – the ‘type of football that will encourage supporters to come and watch’ the team in action. But his motivation is even simpler than that. “All season I’ve just wanted one finals match, just one, for the players to get a taste, to whet their appetite for what it’s all about so that we can take that into next year,” he said. “Our belief is there, there’s no doubt about that and there are no expectations and it is great to be able to go in as underdogs.” Stawell was the last of the teams to cement its place in the top five and will confront traditional rival Ararat in what looms as one of the most anticipated elimination finals in years. The Warriors will go into the finals with only seven wins but there is an exciting atmosphere bubbling away at Central Park, which has underpinned a late-season push from an enthusiastic outfit. There seems little doubt that Thomas, who had the tough job of taking over coaching duties from Brad Cas-

sidy early in the season, has the Warriors playing for the jumper. “Getting a young group to understand a game style takes time and we always knew we were going to have a better end to the season,” he said. “While there are still areas to work on, the players are now starting to get settled into, starting to understand, the game style so that what they’re doing is now becoming instinct. “What’s happening on the ground is becoming player driven.

“I’m massive on culture and these guys, most of them around the 20-year-old mark, are really starting to drive that, to develop the professionalism we’re after.” Thomas didn’t expand too much on how the Warriors would structure up this weekend but did reveal the style would be based on being fast, hard and tough. “We want to create an exciting style that supporters, families and young kids want to come and watch Stawell footy club play,” he said. “Everyone knows their roles, that they have to held accountable, on and off the field, because when you start being accountable people start caring about their roles. This applies not only to the players but to everyone in the club from waterboys to supporters.”

discipline, fitness and mental strength and I reckon when we’re playing good footy, our effort and intensity is hard to match,” Thomas said. “We really want to pride ourselves on the contested footy and believe we can knock off any side. Our belief is there. “These guys want success. They have the hunger, desire and killer instinct.”

Stawell is loaded with versatile utilities and will rely heavily on its talented group of running midfielders in what might evolve into an all-out-attack approach. On-field leadership will provide a major spur and Thomas has been impressed by how players have accepted their roles. “James Delahunty in the past eight weeks has been incredible and I can’t say enough about Tom Eckel, along with co-captain Dave Morris,” Thomas said. “We want to develop coaches within our own ranks and a player like Jackson Dark is a another leader who commands respect.” “Most people judge players by the amount of kicks and handballs they get but that’s not what we judge them on. It’s the little things they do that are important.” The likes of Cam Kimber, Sam Williams, Jessie Eckel and Luke Hendy will also be crucial for the Warriors with their run, as will Scott Driscoll in defence and Jack Musgrove pushing forward to join Brenton Potter and Delahunty. “It will come down to maturity,

Midfield running player who has won regular accolades for his consistency this season. Helps form a critical on-ball running group and is hard to stop when his tail is up.

Liam Cavanagh

Centre half back who is getting better with every season. Athletic and strong and equipped with serious desire to win every contest.

Justin Summons

Versatile follower who is as adept at the centre bounce as he is slipping into a key forward post. An important player for the Rats, helping free up fellow forwards.

Ararat Rats

Rats a danger team in finals series BY DEAN LAWSON

here’s an old saying that there are three types of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.

It’s a saying that might easily apply to Ararat in this year’s Wimmera Football League finals. Season statistics suggest that Ararat has done nothing more than simply qualify for the play-offs and should expect a relatively early exit, especially if it ultimately finds itself up against one of the powerhouse teams of the league. Ararat coach David Hosking is among the first to admit as much. He said in the lead-up to the season showdown: “Our track record says we’re going to struggle, but in saying that we’re still pretty happy to get there.” But there is something more than a bit wonky about Ararat’s results this year that on face value at least don’t seem to add up and demand closer examination. Anyone with the slightest degree of regional football insight, when going through the Rats’ playing list, would see a high-quality side emerging.

You only have to consider a potential goal-to-goal line to see the Rats have a significant degree of potency. Starting with Brady Miller at full back, you then have Liam Cavanagh next in line, then Jack Ganley or Aaron Searle out of the centre, big Justin Summons roaming at centre half forward and power-packed Gordon Laurie in front of the sticks. Let’s not forget star veteran Mick Fratin and championship representative Beau Cosson also hover dangerously in attack. A deeper look reveals the likes of talented Alan Batchelor, Jake Williamson, Harry Ganley and Jake Robinson floating across the lines. So what’s gone wrong with the Rats this year? It’s all been about consistent player availability. Hosking has hardly had a week where he hasn’t had at least a handful of absences, mainly due to injury. “I hate saying it because it’s just a coincidence of footy. But we’ve been belted by the injury bug all year, right back to the practice games,” he said.

TALENTED: Alan Batchelor provides experience and versatility for the Rats. Picture: WILLAMY IMAGES “It makes managing the list pretty hard. For example, with only a couple of weeks until the finals we’ve had to debut a couple of under-17 kids, which

is far from ideal. It is really not where we would like to be.” There is also a suggestion the Ararat group, in knowing it hasn’t been able to seriously

change its position on the ladder, has sat on its heels and counted down the weeks – a dangerous practice but also a potentially ominous process. While form and raw results provide some sort of guide leading into the finals, the reality is that the circumstance means Ararat, in the changing atmosphere of finals football, could emerge from nowhere to make its presence felt. In fact the Rats, considering the potential of their team leaders, could seriously make a lot of teams nervous, especially if their powerful aerialists hit their straps at the right time. Laurie is getting better and gaining greater match fitness with every outing, and a simple lift in conversion rate when kicking for goal will make an enormous difference to Ararat’s fortunes. Cosson is a renowned biggame performer and opponents paying him too much attention will risk opening the game for Laurie, Fratin and Summons. Midfielder Jack Ganley, meanwhile, is the quintessential footballer’s footballer. Not only does he play tall in the air, but is one of the hardest

players to beat in the competition for the contested ball. Searle provides a slick edge pushing into attack, Cavanagh has been outstanding on the rebound and rover Batchelor has revelled in opportunities to play in variety of different roles this season. Is Ararat good enough to be a dark horse in the finals? You bet it is. Ask any long-time footballer and they will tell you that ‘everything’ tends to change with the greater load of expectation and intensity. If it suddenly manages to find the continuity that has proved elusive all season, then watch out. “If I was to give you our best 21 on paper I have no doubt we would match anyone. Of course, at the moment we still have the players out there capable of winning,” Hosking said. Ararat will play in the elimination final at Horsham City Oval, a ground that seems to suit its style of play. Beware the Rats. They might fall over without as much as a whimper. But they might also stir the pot.

Minyip Murtoa

Burras’ focus all about the team BY DEAN LAWSON

o one fights alone! It is a profound motto that Minyip-Murtoa has carried under coach Jaye Macumber’s direction in Wimmera Football League this year. It underpins a one-for-all and all-for-one philosophy that, combined with the Burras’ emphasis on defence, has carried the Dunmunkle outfit into this year’s finals series. It is a concept that is also reflected in Minyip-Murtoa best-player lists this year, with a variety of players capturing attention and winning accolades. “It’s all about the team and never about individuals,” Macumber said. “We know that we can’t play well and beat the good sides of the league unless there are 21 blokes dialled into the program. “At our club it’s making sure everyone knows it’s not about individuals – it’s really all about the whole team being focused to do little things by each other, being

Burras coach Jaye Macumber accountable and making sure that if a game is not going your way that you continue to do the right thing by the team.” Macumber said he believed the Burras had the ability to reach the grand final. “Yes, we’re in with a good shot to play off in the last game – that’s our goal. We’re aiming to go as deeply into the finals as we can. I believe

we’re good enough on our day to beat anyone,” he said. Minyip-Murtoa has commanded more than respect in a stand-out year where it has established itself as one of the top teams, alongside Horsham and Horsham Saints. The Burras have a reputation for muscle but in reality appears well-balanced and multi-dimensional. In fact,

Macumber believes his side matches up physically similar to Horsham, renowned for having a fleet of runners. “I think in the past MinyipMurtoa teams were big and strong but we don’t really have too many big-marking targets. We have Matty Coleman who has stepped up and been fantastic for us at centre half forward and, of course, we have Luke Chamberlain and Tom Cooper around the stoppages,” he said. The Burras also have a Toohey Medallist ruckman in Kieran Delahunty, who plays diverse ruck and ruckroving roles, Brayden Ison and John Delahunty, Lachlan Gabbe – who has impressed since shifting from Border Districts – and teenager Adam Schache, who has also won accolades for his defensive pressure. Macumber revealed the Burras had worked on an intense defensive formula this year, designed on preventing opposition sides from scoring until games broke open. “It’s meant that we haven’t been able to score as freely but I’m okay with that con-

sidering how finals are generally played,” he said. “It’s a formula that has held us in good stead and obviously with good fitness, it’s allowed us to stay in games. We’re confident we can run out games so when the arm-wrestle subsides, we have the fitness to pull the trigger.” The Burras have a mixed bag of quality players. Justin Garth is a general around the packs and centre half back Warwick Stone’s tightchecking game provides significant rebound. Blake Young has made the back pocket his own and Kade Petering is lifting his game to another level on the wing, combining with the likes of Liam Newell and Gus Trethowan. Cooper has had a sterling year and the Burras hope Adam Gerdtz, who has missed a lot of footy, will be right for the finals. Team leaders also hope that Clint Midgley can came back from injury for the finals and make an impact in the goal-square.

Players to watch Jordyn Burke Returned mid-season and strengthened Horsham’s aerial potency around the ground. An enforcer who slips into the attacking hot-spot where he often drags down contested marks.

Nick Pekin A raw talent with tremendous skills, strength, speed, ball-winning and goal-kicking ability. A match-winner whose appearnace in the finals hinged on a tribunal hearing outcome.

Brad Hartigan Heart-and-soul midfield team leader. Excels in the heat of battle and often the first to emerge with the ball during 50-50 contests to instigate attacking bursts.

Ben Lakin

Rhona Conboy

Adaptable young utility who can attack or defend in a key-position but is just as comfortable galloping with midfield runners. Starred in Horsham’s premiership last year.

Quality young defender who works hard to make every contest and often butters up to collect the spilled ball with second and third efforts. Superb rebounding footballer.

Horsham Demons

Demons aim for back-to-back flags BY DEAN LAWSON

orsham joint coach Nick Pekin has revealed the two key messages underpinning Horsham’s build-up to another Wimmera Football League finals series.

The on-field leader, who stopped the tractor on the farm at Kanagulk for a chat, said players had to make sure they stuck together in the last few weeks of the season. He added the group also had to have a clear understanding that premiership success was hard to achieve. “It’s been a long season that started way back in November last year and we don’t want to let all that work slip away in the last few weeks,” he said. “And with the Horsham list so young and perhaps having an expectation of winning premierships every year, there has been a concerted effort to make sure the group understands they can’t take success for granted.” Pekin, who stepped up to join fellow on-field leader Brad Hartigan in a joint coaching

role this year, said former Demons premiership player Terry Arnel was playing a key role in stressing the need for players to make the most of opportunities.

“Terry went for many years early in his footy career without playing in finals and he has been passing on the message that you can’t take success for granted,” he said. Pekin said he had enjoyed his season at the helm alongside Hartigan and was looking forward to having a relatively full list of players for the finals after injury concerns in a tough lead-up. YOUNG GUN: Talented teenager Billy Lloyd could miss the Demons’ finals series, depending on Rebels’ duties. Picture: WILLAMY IMAGES

“I think overall the season has panned out pretty well. We’ve had three losses to Saints – two were close and the last blew out because we didn’t have the cattle,” he said. “We took a lot of positives out of our last loss to the Saints.”

Dominant force

Season results clearly show Horsham has been one of the dominant forces of the competition, but Pekin quickly dismissed suggestions that the Demons had such a good list they needed little direction to win games. “I’ve heard a few people say that Horsham coaches itself but the truth is the senior list is the youngest it’s been in recent years and needs plenty of guidance,” he said. “That’s why we got Luke Carr to come back and why Jordyn Burke is so important in the team. “We also have Luke Spasic and Garret Liston in the twos providing great support.”

With Rhona Conboy and Ben Lakin leading rebounding efforts from defence, Burke providing a target through centre half forward and Sean Christopher leading from the square, Horsham’s ball-carriers come into their own.

Contest

Pekin’s bursts to collect the disputed ball, Hartigan’s running ball-winning efforts at the coalface, Simon Hobbs’ ability to run through the lines and Beau Nelson’s work on the overlap all draw team-mates into the contest. A lot hinges on Pekin’s appearance at the tribunal tonight. Horsham has also found another goal-kicking option through Wood as a rotating forward who can also slip back on a flank or wing. Talented Billy Lloyd, who might or might not be available because of North Ballarat Rebels commitments, also hovers somewhere in the background. Pekin said he was keen to continue a coaching role with the Demons next year regardless of finals results. “I’m keen if the club wants me,” he said.

Anyone regularly watching Horsham games would have noticed the Demons’ trademark willingness to keep the ball moving with speed. “With players so young and fit they obviously like to run the ball and of course we try to promote quick ball movement,” Pekin said. “It’s obviously nice to watch and I suppose we’re similar to the Saints in this way. “It’s about exploiting the things you have.” While Pekin is confident he will have a full list for the finals, injuries might still be a concern. Joel Geue, crunched a fortnight ago, in particular is a key part of the Horsham running and goal-scoring group. John Wood, who was nursing a sore knee, is also important. “It would be nice to get all the blokes back from injury. But we just have to prepare on the track and train how we want to play. It’s good to have the depth to cover ourselves,” Pekin said. Pekin was right when he suggested the Demons were great to watch.

Jacob Cooke-Harrison 41, Gavin Kelm 26, Matthew Combe 26, Heath Watson 24.

Michael Rowe

Easily rates as one of the best ruckmen in the competition. Mobile and clever, he enjoys mixing it in the heat of battle but is also a master of slipping into vacant holes to take telling marks and provides a wealth of runners with first use of the ball.

Jacob Cooke-Harrison

Blessed with tremendous evasion and hand-eye skills, Cooke-Harrison also has an uncanny ability to find the goals. Matured as footballer and has taken his football to a new level. Enjoying one of his best seasons.

Phil Butsch

Toohey Medallist and a proven ballwinner who is likely to make his presence felt in the finals. A tough competitor whose willingness to lead from the front provides inspiration for his team-mates.

Jacob O’Beirne

Slick running midfielder who can find his way through heavy traffic. Developing an ability to puncture the forward 50 with telling kicks on the run.

Kyle O’Connor

Raw talent who might be among the Saints’ wildcard players in the finals. Produces moments of brilliance that often take opponents by surprise.

Even spread behind Saints’ big season A

BY DEAN LAWSON

s he walks off the ground each week, Horsham Saints coach Shayne Breuer dreads the moment an official approaches him to fill out a best-player card.

“It’s just that we rely so heavily on everyone doing their job and it has been so hard to individualise,” he said. “The guys know what their roles are and know what they have to do. In most circumstances you will have 14 guys in a team who jump on board and a few stragglers. This year the effort has involved everyone from the whole 21 and throughout the whole senior squad.” Struggling to pin-point individual match-winners in a Wimmera league season of domination must be a great problem to have for Breuer and his brains trust. The Saints’ even spread of talent, speed, strength and leadership has underpinned an outstanding homeand-away season that has led to the Coughlin Park outfit securing top spot on the ladder and a rest in the first week of the finals.

In fact, the Saints have gone so well that plenty of fans with memories and experiences of the many premiership bridesmaid titles the club has won are getting more than a little edgy.

Elusive premiership

Despite being perennial finalists, and also grand finalists, the Saints remain the only Wimmera league club yet to win a premiership. If it is a circumstance that worries Breuer then he far from shows it and, in fact, welcomes discussion on the topic. “We need to talk about it and discuss it so we can change it,” he said. “We can’t keep doing the same thing every year if it’s not working and we have to make sure we change our approach. “We have to do everything possible to avoid making the same mistakes. “It is going to be hard enough work getting to a grand final and if we’re lucky enough to get into another one then hopefully we can reverse the result.” If getting through to the grand final and winning it is based on team lead-

ership, then Horsham Saints seem well-equipped to get the job done. “We’re pretty lucky. We have a relatively young group and some older blokes who provide leadership, but some of our younger guys have also stood up and added leadership to their games,” Breuer said. “Jacob O’Beirne, who has had a bit of experience with the North Ballarat Rebels, has really stepped up in that role and been fantastic. “Others such as Tom Payne and Dan Rees are also now really having an influence on the team. “Some guys are also a lot fitter as part of a natural progression from the previous year.” Breuer provided further insight into the Saints’ season by explaining some of the team methodology. “You don’t really have a footy in your hands a lot during a game. But when you don’t have it, you can still have an impact,” he said. Horsham Saints have a variety of factors working in their favour and it will be hard for opposition teams to stop them from a kicking a winning score.

A crack Ararat attack I

BY DEAN LAWSON

f there is anything that stirs the blood of your average footy fan it is seeing top-quality forwards in action.

Crashing the packs to haul in mighty marks, kicking goals that turn games and providing a love-hate intimidating presence in a contest are what key forwards are all about. Their influence on a contest, especially in big games, raises the temperature and fuels a footy atmosphere that becomes infectious and seems to raise the stakes regardless of circumstance. Among Wimmera league’s finalists, Ararat is the team that will have the most influential power-packed forwards on show and if the group fires as a collective then watch-out everyone else. It’s a luxury the Rats have rarely enjoyed in the past decade and represents how the cards have fallen favourably for a club that has been working its way back up the league ranks. Coach David Hosking said the Rats had been specific in the type of players they wanted to recruit in the past couple of years and had been delighted with the results. “It was no secret that we’ve been pushed around a lot in the past 10 years and recruiting strong-bodied players was a priority,” he said. “But it wasn’t simply a case of finding good players. We needed quality individuals and we’ve done pretty well.” Names pencilled in the

attacking half for the Rats include Beau Cosson, Gordon Laurie, Justin Summons, Mick Fratin and Xavier Vearing. While veteran Fratin is a long-established Wimmera league star and Vearing a rising home-grown talent, the other three are relative newcomers who have quickly established considerable reputations. Former national weight-lifting talent Laurie and former Sandringham big man Summons joined the Rats this year through connections with fellow metropolitan footballer Cosson. All three, travelling each week from Melbourne to play, have spoken glowingly about their experience so far with the Rats. Cosson, 29, in his second season at Alexandra Oval, found his way into the camp while working as an electrician on Ararat’s prison last year. The potent and cleanmarking

spearhead immediately impressed, winning an interleague jumper and forcing his way into a Vic Country team. “I’m loving it. Being brought up in metropolitan footy, coming up to play country footy has brought back all the things I love about the game,” he said. “In our game against MinyipMurtoa I thought that we, finally as a group, had said ‘enough is enough’. Hopefully that was a turning point because a loss to Dimboola cut deeply.”

Recovered

Cosson has recovered from a broken foot and hopes Ararat can push deeply into the finals, considering he played in four losing grand finals in a row, including a 2009 VFL grand final with Summons, before joining the Rats. “I draw a lot from Mick Fratin. He’s a few years older than me and is a great calming influence. He’s been sensational and it’s great to see him back,” Cosson said. “It’s also been a massive coup getting Justin to Ararat this year and it was great that he represented Wimmera league. This year it’s been difficult to get it all to work in the forward line.

“But over four to five weeks we’ve started to understand each other’s running patterns. Mick’s been a big part of that. On paper, our forward line is potent and it’s a matter of getting it right. We’d be nothing without the mids getting the ball. When they are on top we can go to work.”

Weight-lifter

Cosson played his early football with Summons and Laurie at East Burwood and

helped Ararat lure the pair to the Wimmera. Laurie, a national weightlifter, became disgruntled with the politics involved in his sport and retired from championship competition last year. “I missed the Commonwealth Games team and had retired. I basically had a chat with Beau and he got me over the line to play with Ararat,” he said. Laurie said taking up football again had provided him with a ‘release’ and freedom to destress playing sport, while still having time with his family. “I was originally an on-baller, half forward or half back but with my weight-lifting and size I’ve slotted into full forward,” he said. “At the start of the season, during the transition to footy, the body took a while to recover. My first practice match came after I had just come off 12 months of heavy weight training. I was still in weightlifting mode and the body took about 10 days to recover. But it’s got better and better and I now feel more comfortable within the playing group.” There is no doubting Laurie will be an imposing figure this weekend. As a lifter he competed in the 105-kilogram class and at that weight has snatched 155 kilograms and clean and jerked 180. In training at 113 kilograms he has snatched 160 and cleaned 190. “Playing in Ararat has been a blessing. I now have friendships with the major part of the playing group and I can’t thank everyone enough,” he said. Summons, 26, who has been alternating with Vearing in the ruck and across half forward, echoed Laurie’s sentiments. “I have really enjoyed my time at Ararat and I’m glad I made the decision,” he said. Summons joined the Rats after travelling overseas and playing Aussie Rules at international level in America and New Zealand. He drew similarities between playing with Denver Bulldogs and the Rats.

GUN RECRUIT: Justin Summons is enjoying the club culture at the Rats this season.

“I captained the Denver Bulldogs and loved my time with them, so much so that they became my favourite club. Then I’ve come to Ararat and identified a different kind of culture that I have really enjoyed,” he said. “I’m not sure what it is exactly but it is a heart-warming feeling that hasn’t existed in metro football from my experience. I’ve played where there has been a lot of elitism where players have tried to use their circumstance as stepping stones but it’s not like that at Ararat.” Summons said he believed Ararat’s ability in the finals would come down to the players’ mental application and approach. “How we played against Minyip-Murtoa was super exciting and really showed what we do. I hope we can bottle that up and use it,” he said. One of the reasons Summons played for the Rats was to show his American girlfriend the country. “I’m pumped for finals. If we give everything then we can’t be disappointed in what happens,” he said.

Demons delight in being the hunted BY COURTNEY CLOUGH

orsham Demons cocoach Zoe Heard says retaining the starting seven from season 2014 is the perfect foundation for her side’s ultimate premiership defence.

The Demons will shift into finals mode with only one change – Katelyn Parry’s return to goal-keeper. An ability to maintain core players has allowed Heard’s side to have a strong undefeated season in 2015. Heard said that despite her mid-season Sydney departure and an injury to young star defender Georgia Hiscock, the coaching personnel had managed to stay consistent in their performances. The Demons have covered Heard’s goal defence position successfully, with the likes of experienced Sheridan Petering and switching in co-coach Abbie Avery. Young Ally Hiscock has also slotted nicely into the Demons’ centre court. Heard is adamant that hard work – the team’s versatility, which gives the side quite a

bit of depth and the ability to move players to suit opposition match-ups – and having relatively the same playing group for the past four years is the catalyst for Horsham’s proud success.

games inside out,” Heard said. Heard is not only an astute teacher of the game, she is the ultimate team player – one you would rather have on your side than against. “It is hard hearing about the game from afar as I would love to be out there with the girls each week but they’ve done a fantastic job. The key thing now is not to come back and disrupt the team for finals,” she said. For Heard, whether she’s on or off the court isn’t a factor.

Key players “With the players I’m fortunate to have in my team, I could name any one of them as a key player and there would be people who’d agree. To me, though, the key player for us during finals will be Abbie Avery,” Heard said. Heard believes that not only is Avery one of the top athletes in the association, but she is exciting to watch. Horsham has the luxury of Avery controlling the middle, and backed on the wings by Paige Lloyd and Mardi Isbel. Lloyd and Isbel both have great awareness and read the play well, which allows the rest of the team to peel off their players and pick off intercepts. “All three of them make up a potent midcourt combination,” Heard said.

FINISHING ON A HIGH: Demons co-coach Zoe Heard. Pictures: WILLAMY IMAGES “With each match we play, we have our flaws, so as a team, either at training or the end of the match, we identify what errors we made and then us coaches will scrutinise them and develop training around making improvements in those areas. “It’s important not to waste training time on things we’re already doing well. “It’s also imperative to keep training enjoyable and not too serious because we’re here for

the company as much as we are the sport. “As a team, we’re also supercompetitive. We do not like losing so we work damn hard to try to ensure that we win as much as possible. “But probably our biggest motivator is the fact that people outside want to see us fail due to our previous success. It really brings us closer as a team knowing that we’re very much the hunted.”

Although with a competitive glint and hunger in her eyes, she said: “I would just love to finish my career at the Demons, with this group of girls, on a high. “We’ve been together for a few years now so winning one last premiership as this group is the ultimate goal.”

Burras swift rise to a finals series

was no expectation on them, giving them ‘the freedom to go for broke, a very comfortable position to be sitting in’.

BY COURTNEY CLOUGH

inyip-Murtoa’s turn around season this year will long be remembered for its swift rise up the A Grade ladder.

The Burras have shown dedication to hard work and a refocus on player development, adding much excitement into their netball ranks. Full credit must go to the club’s brains trust and its endeavour to secure passionate first-year coach Vikki Burke, who brings plenty of knowledge and experience from the North Central and Loddon Valley leagues. Burke said family connections lured her to the Burras, and after some time away from the game raising her young family, she got excited when the phone rang again in the off season. Burke was approached in 2014 but declined due to family commitments. She said her mission in her first year was to focus primarily on player development. The Burras recruited well during the offseason, and Burke was determined to instil dedication, hard work and maintain the existing senior playing group by creating a culture that was going to bring their finals expectations to fruition. “We have come a long way in both regards and to have the success we had is a grand bonus,” she said. “The expectation was to play finals, and to be sitting nicely in third position is a great effort and very exciting.” Having secured the likes of talented sister duo Stevie and Billie Bibby, from Kalkee, Kirby Knight, Natimuk, and captain Stefanie Cooper through footballing channels,

While they might not feel the pressure of expectation, Wimmera netball supporters and fans alike were much aware of the talented players the Burras boast in their ranks.

Growing Burke believes sharpshooter Knight, who had blossomed this year improving with confidence and goaling accuracy, was yet to hit top gear.

DEFENDER: Burras’ Lateesha Gascoyne.

Minyip-Murtoa created a fair bit of hype in the pre-season player movements. But the Burras remained tight-lipped, instead putting in hard work and forming a united senior netball group. “A great deal of effort has been put into this year and we see the rewards. Next year is looking exciting to build further on the groundwork already done,” Burke said. Burke believes plenty of depth and options across her squad will hold it in good stead if the Burras can play consistent netball for 60 minutes. With all the excitement at Burraland, Burke said her side was young and had no fear going into finals. She said the players felt there

She says along with Knight, Spencer Smith and Billie Bibby in the midcourt, will be players to watch and serve the Burras well in their finals campaign. Burke rates Cooper and Stevie Bibby’s in-form defensive combination as ’simply the best’. She said the pair was classy to watch and, if her side could continue to apply intense midcourt pressure, they would create many turnovers their way. So what would a chance to play in an A Grade grand final mean for Minyip-Murtoa? Burke said it would be the ‘absolute ultimate’. The formidable partnership of Burke and captain Cooper is helping create something special at the Burras and there’s no time like the present to make that count.

Eagles set out to attack T

BY COURTNEY CLOUGH

alking netball with Warrack Eagles club stalwart and non-playing A Grade coach Jane Richardson, you’re quick to realise that her playing experience, loyalty and wealth of netball knowledge holds her side in great stead to feature strongly in September action.

The Eagles have continued to develop plenty of different combinations across the court during the season. They have an important blend of youth and experience, which allows them to learn from each other. “Our versatility is definitely one of our strengths,’’ Richardson said. Richardson believes her side has shown strong form in the home and away rounds, but said she would challenge her side to play consistently over four quarters. Richardson will look to experienced Megan Werner, Kerry Schultz, Penny Fisher and midcourt sister act Sarah Spicer and Emma Koschitzke to maintain the team’s focus and intensity as it tastes the pressure of finals.

It’s clear that Richardson admires the work rate of her side. She said the Eagles’ training structure was geared around putting in hard work early to peak at the right time of the season. They have continually worked on developing their playing connections during training. Richardson said her players were excited about the possibility of being able to play in a home grand final at Anzac Park. “We’ve always had great support within our club regardless of our fortunes on the field or court,” she said. “I think if we are able to play in a home grand final, we would certainly have plenty of people cheering us on.” Richardson, who occasionally still trains with her side, admitted to having itchy feet about playing but said she enjoyed coaching, without the added pressure of playing. She said coaching her playing group would be topped off if she could see it achieve success at the season’s end, as the result of all its hard work.

LOOKING AHEAD: Experienced Rats Olivia West, far left, and Megan Shea, left, will be hard to stop in the elimination final. Dimboola will rely on goal attack Billie Barber, right, and Antoinette Toet, far right, to steer them into the next round of finals. Pictures: WILLAMY IMAGES

Roos and Rats face elimination final BY COURTNEY CLOUGH

ith plenty of height across the court and grit in the middle, Dimboola certainly matches up well across the board.

It will need to be at its best in the elimination final against Ararat this weekend.

The Roos must be consistent from the first whistle and, with the likes of experienced heads Abbey Greig and Carly Werner, must continue to rally their team-mates to keep them in the contest for the duration of the match. Antoinette Toet on the wing must keep her young goalies confident at the front, let the ball go and provide

plenty of drive to the top of the circle. If the Roos keep their physical oneon-one style pressure up for the full 60 minutes, they could go through quietly to next week’s finals matches.

Dark horse There is no doubt Ararat is the finals’ dark horse, especially with its strong

finish in the home-and-away season strongly. It’s no surprise the way the Rats are charging into finals. Their run home has been impressive. How they’ve risen up the ladder this season is more about player connections and understandings plus a lot of natural skill.

Ararat’s forward line structure of Megan Shea and Jakki Gibson, combined with Olivia West, Kate Bligh and defender Rebecca Skrabl, are the keys to success. The Rats know how to play finals netball, and will carry on playing more great netball, deep into the finals action.

Question time with Wimmera Netball Association president The Weekly Advertiser’s Wimmera netball reporter Courtney Clough catches up with Wimmera Netball Association president and long-time player Sharon Fedke on the eve of the 2015 finals series.

Courtney Clough: Lets talk final five, and why they can all win it... Sharon Fedke: Horsham Demons: I think Horsham Demons have shown over the past few years that they are the most consistent team and this year has been no different. They have managed to keep a core group and they continue to be the benchmark. They are still my pick to win the flag. Warrack Eagles: The return of the Kosi sisters has been a huge boost to the Eagles along with a couple of good juniors in Leiah McKenzie and Summer

Schultz, who have strengthened this team this year. Penny Fisher goes about her business with ease and they could still rattle some cages. Minyip-Murtoa: The big improvers of 2015, however they need four consistent quarters if they are going to push either of the top two teams. The inclusions of Kirby Knight, the Bibby sisters, Stevie and Billie, Stefanie Cooper and Spencer Smith this year have added strength to some of the homegrown talent already at Minyip-Murtoa. Dimboola: Had another good season and on their day would be a strong contender. Ant Toet continues to lead from the front, supported by consistent playmakers in Abbey Greig, Carly Werner and Billie-Jo Barber. Ararat: Ararat is now my smokey! With Megan Shea fir-

ing on all cylinders and their experienced players all starting to gel together, Ararat’s team is coming together at the right end of the season. If they can get their full line-up together and maybe Tiff Boatman home for finals to support Rebecca Skrabl and Kate Bligh leading the midcourt, they might just be able to a come from the back of the pack through to the grand final. CC: Who’s your tip to play off in the grand final at Anzac Park and why? SF: Most people would answer this with Horsham Demons versus Warrack Eagles, but my gut feeling on this at the moment would be Horsham Demons v Ararat. Ararat are coming home with a wet sail, and if everything clicks for them, they might just be able to push for a grand final spot. CC: What are Sharon

Qualifying Final

Fedke’s finals tips for teams? SF: Try not to get overawed by the occasion. Finals games means bigger crowds and sometimes that can intimidate some players. Try to stay focused on what you need to do, and just breathe! CC: Who are your players to watch out for during the finals series? SF: Georgia Duncan from Horsham Demons – she makes playing netball look easy and takes everything in her stride. Nothing fazes her. A very talented netballer. Warrack Eagles’ Penny Fisher – another cool, calm customer who reads the play beautifully and seems to intercept at will. And obviously Megan Shea of Ararat – back to her very best and is a scoring machine. Is she getting younger? That hip surgery seems to have taken 10 years off her age!

SF: Wow, this is a difficult one and I can only speak from the 12 seasons that I have been involved with the WNA, and even then, there’s been a few. But the match-up that I keep coming back to is Ebonie Pawsey and Megan Shea. Two powerhouses of the league, two Heather Hatcher Medalists, and I’m sure those who witnessed their duels over the years would agree it was always a fantastic spectacle.

You could look at the bottom few teams and say that wasn’t the case. But if you actually look at their results, the losing margins have often been less than 10 goals, and really, the results could have quite easily gone the other way. And the fact that the top five wasn’t completely decided until the last round shows that anything can, and has happened this year. That’s how we want our competition – no one getting an easy ride.

QUALIFYING SHOWDOWN: Horsham Demon Joel Geue, Minyip-Murtoa’s John Delahunty and Demon Darcy Taylor will feature prominently in Saturday’s match. Pictures: WILLAMY IMAGES

Mighty launch of Wimmera finals BY DEAN LAWSON

onsiderable intrigue surrounds Wimmera Football League this weekend with all teams shaping up for the first round of finals more than capable of producing the unexpected.

While reigning premier Horsham is trying to rekindle its winning formula amid a juggle of players, MinyipMurtoa appears to have found its feet again after obvious soul searching. Ararat is suddenly threatening despite a loss to the Demons, and Stawell looms as a wildcard after firming up a place in the top five. There won’t be any need to stoke the finals fire with qualifying final action at Ararat on Saturday. Horsham and Minyip-Murtoa are set to generate plenty of heat from the first whistle. The Demons, who have lost only to Horsham Saints during the homeand-away season, and the Burras, who have been snapping at their heels, have had curious lead-up games to the finals. Horsham, with a core group of its best players out of action, endured its heaviest loss of the season a fortnight ago before bouncing back to beat Ararat in a hard-fought encounter at Horsham City Oval last weekend. The report of joint coach Nick Pekin, who will appear before the league

tribunal tonight, has further fuelled speculation about an unpredictable finals series. If Pekin is absent then the door starts to creak open for the Burras, who would love nothing more than the prospect of taking on an undermanned Demons. But it is critical to understand the ability of Horsham to creatively cover any deficiencies that might emerge in big games. There was no better example than last week when Pekin’s red card for a heavy bump on Harry Ganley in the opening term left Horsham one man short for more than 90 percent of the game. Regardless of the absence, Horsham manipulated its structure to win what evolved into a shoot-out by 16 points. The circumstance prompted the Demons to perhaps reveal an ace up their sleeve a week earlier than they might have liked with Luke Carr, in his 200th game, proving the difference between the teams. Carr slotted into full forward, turned back the clock and kicked eight goals in a best-on-ground performance. Some watchers suggest Ararat would have probably won had Carr not turned on such a show in front of the sticks. But Horsham’s opponent at Alexandra Oval this weekend will be the

Burras, who used the final home-andaway round against Warrack Eagles to arrest a three-game losing streak. It was the tall timber who steered the Burras back onto the winner’s podium with Kieran Delahunty kicking nine goals and Braydon Ison reminding everyone of his talent with four goals and a big game in the ruck.

Aerial battle

The Burras might try to expose Horsham in the air if they can tie up key Demon tall Jordyn Burke, who looms as dangerous target pushing through the centre corridor. Warwick Stone will be involved somewhere in the formula and it would be ill-advised to neglect the potential effect of Demon Billy Carberry in the clinches. Minyip-Murtoa also has John Delahunty running into form, and Kade Petering and Adam Gerdtz won accolades last week. The big Ararat ground will suit both camps, which enjoy finding space and running the ball. Minyip-Murtoa will find penetrating the forward 50 considerably tougher against the likes of level-headed rebounding defenders Rhona Conboy and Ben Lakin. Tremendous battles look to be all over the ground. The Burras have Blake Young and Gus Trethowan link-

ing through the ground and the Demons have Simon Hobbs and Darcy Taylor working with joint coach Brad Hartigan. It will be fascinating to see what happens if Minyip-Murtoa coach Jaye Macumber continues to adopt the Burras’ defensive-pressure style against a quality opponent now finals have arrived. It has worked well for them for much of the year but might come unstuck against the Demons who appear primed to progress to the second semi-final.

Battle of Great Divide

The footy action will be just as intense at Horsham City Oval on Sunday, when traditional rivals Ararat and Stawell lock horns in a muchanticipated elimination final. This game appears well and truly up for grabs considering the lead-up form of both outfits. Ararat can’t seem to make up its mind whether it wants chocolates or boiled lollies, while Stawell has gradually built momentum and secured its place in the finals. All Stawell coach Brad Thomas wanted this year was his team to have a taste of finals and, now he has his wish, must try to mastermind an upset. Stawell was always going to be too good for Nhill last week and stamped

its authority all over its last homeand-away game of the year with a big second half. The big talking point at Central Park, Stawell, was the goal-kicking form of Jack Musgrove, whose nine goals took his tally for the last three games to 21. He has also ranked as either best or second best player for his team in the past month. Stawell has won its past four games, including defining victories over Dimboola and Minyip-Murtoa. The likes of Tom Eckel, David Morris, Sam Williams, Jamie Bach and Luke Hendy have been in glowing form and will be hard to beat. Stawell, which has come off secondbest to Ararat twice this year, might not have the firepower to negate Ararat’s potent forward structure including Beau Cosson, Gordon Laurie, Justin Summons and Mick Fratin. This means it might be forced to try to out-shoot the Rats, which in turn should produce an exciting contest. Ararat, like Horsham, tries to exploit the centre corridor and use players such as Jack Ganley and Liam Cavanagh to open the game for the likes of Alan Batchelor, Aaron Searle and Sam Shalders. The potential for this game to go to the wire is high but it will be Ararat that gets its nose across the line.

renowned agricultural specialist responsible for a global seed vault designed to protect plant diversity has given Australian Grains Genebank in Horsham a glowing endorsement. American Cary Fowler, chairman of the International Advisory Council of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, was impressed with genebank operations, which are playing a key role in global food security. Mr Fowler, a friend of Warracknabeal district farmer and scientist Tony Gregson, accepted an invitation from Mr Gregson to visit the Wimmera centre, as well as speak at a Crawford Fund Parliamentary Conference in Canberra and Melbourne University Botany Foundation lecture in Melbourne. “I was keen to for him to come and look at the genebank in Horsham because he had been a strong advocate for Australia’s involvement in international seed preservation,” Mr Gregson said. “I drove him up from Melbourne and he was impressed, which is significant coming from him.” The Australian Grains Genebank has sent seeds to the global vault on the Norwegian

Mr Fowler, with the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, started the vault to preserve seeds to insure plant diversity against loss caused by large-scale regional or global crises. American president Barack

Obama has appointed Mr Fowler to the Board for International Food and Agricultural Development. Mr Gregson emphasised how much of a crucial role the Australian gene bank was playing in global grain-crop security. “Sally Norton and her team at the genebank have an enormous world-wide responsibility,” he said.

Ranger leads Ford charge for change

he changing face of Ford’s Ranger pick-up will be mirrored by a change in the brand’s image between now and the end of the year, according to the car-maker’s local boss.

Ford Australia’s top-selling model is set to go head-to-head with the new Toyota HiLux, due in October, with both sporting new faces, more comfort equipment and safety technology than before. Speaking with media at a Ranger drive event in Victoria last week, Ford Australia president and chief executive Graeme Whickman said a change to the brand’s image is coming, along with the refreshed lineup. “You might find that we present and position ourselves as a brand for the remainder of the year in a different way,” he said. “Many at this table universally or quite consistently tell me that

our product line-up is a lot better than our brand image and that we have one of the best line-ups in the market, yet we don’t seem to have gotten that through to consumers. “Clearly we have got to earn the right and respect to have them drive our vehicles, somehow we’ve got to get that across to them,” he said. Last year, light-commercial ute sales totalled 175,373 sales, down from more than 182,000 the previous year, but the fourwheel-drive segment alone outnumbered both mid-size as well as large SUVs and was second only to small cars in sales in 2014. So far this year, the 4x4 LCV ute sales stand at 79,082, up by 3.1 per cent, the fourth largest segment by volume in the overall new-vehicle market. Toyota’s veteran HiLux still leads the charge, but the Ranger and Mitsubishi’s new Triton are

among a host of vehicles – Nissan’s new Navara, the Holden Colorado, Mazda’s BT-50 among them – pushing the segment to sales success. Mr Whickman said the carmaker was confident of the new Ranger’s sales potential in the face of renewed competition from Toyota and several other class competitors. “I would say our aspirations are positive and we’re confident that we should be able to do better, but having said that we’ll have to earn the right to do that. “The product will speak for itself and we’ll see what the consumers will say,” he said. Ranger’s petrol entry level single- and double-cab XL models are long gone (more than a year out of the range and not missed, according to Ford), leaving the entry level XL single-cab turbodiesel manual at $27,390 plus on-road costs, a $3000 price rise over the outgoing model.

The 4x4 XLS price is unmoved, while the rest of the range increases between $500 and the aforementioned $3000. The heavily face lifted Ranger, designated PX MkII, has a new bonnet, front grille, headlights and front fenders, bumper profiles and new wheel designs, but the rear is unchanged.

Infotainment

It also comes with the Sync2 system for the top two XLT and Wildtrak variants, controlling most of the car’s infotainment, sat-nav and climate control systems via an 8.0-inch touchscreen. The new vehicles also get changes to the dampers for better pitch control, electric power steering, a new cable-shift sixspeed manual gearbox and idlestop fuel saving system for the manual versions. The phone-dependant Emergency Assistance system (which direct-dials 000 after a crash)

is standard across the range, while a reversing camera is only standard on the Wildtrak and tied to option or dealer accessory packs involving the centre rear-vision mirror display set-up for the rest of the range. The Ranger offers – unlike many of its competitors – two powerplant choices as per the outgoing model. The entry level engine is the 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder now producing 118kW (up from 110kW) and 385Nm (an extra 10Nm) and still teamed to either six-speed manual or the optional six-speed automatic. The 3.2-litre 20-valve fivecylinder diesel delivers an unchanged 147kW and 470Nm, but fuel economy has improved by up to 20 per cent. The 2.2 returns between 6.6 and 7.5 litres per 100 kilometres, depending on the model and body style, while the larger 3.2L returns between 8.2 and 9.2L/100km.

The XL kicks off the range in single-cab chassis 2.2L manual guise from $27,390, or the HiRider is priced $30,890; automatics add $2200 and 4WD pushes the price up by $7900 for much of the range or $11,400 in the case of the XL. The XL sits on 16-inch steel wheels and has manual seat adjustment, automatic halogen headlights, manual air-conditioning, cloth trim and vinyl floor coverings, Bluetooth and USB-equipped sound system, the lower-grade Sync system, a rear diff lock, cruise control and four tie down points in the tray. Added to that in the XL Plus (starting from $46,480 in 4WDonly guise) are daytime running lights, 17-inch steel wheels, side steps, a second battery, an expanded wiring harness and auxiliary inputs and a 3.5-inch multi-function display. Stuart Martin GoAutoMedia, 2015

Car industry funds could push out

he Senate inquiry into the future of the Australian automotive industry has recommended that the government draw up an internationally competitive industry policy to ensure the sector remains a vital part of the domestic economy. In the inquiry’s interim report, the majority opinion also suggested the definition of companies eligible to draw down funds from the Automotive Transformation Scheme be widened, and the funds be made available out to 2021, not 2017. Victorian senator Ricky Muir rallied cross-bench support for the Labor proposal to hold an inquiry. The Senate Economics References Committee that conducted the inquiry was chaired by Labor senator, Sam Dastyari. The committee recommended that any new policy approach should start with the Automotive Australia Roadmap 2020 as a guide to which areas and activities should be encouraged. The committee supported the proposition put forward by the Ai Group, the peak manufacturing body, to use the underspend in the ATS program to promote diversification instead of rolling the allocation back into general revenue. “However, the challenges within the (automotive) industry mean there is a need for substantial reorientation of the

HELPING HAND: A Senate inquiry recommends extending out the Automotive Transformation Scheme beyond 2017 to 2021. design of the Automotive Transformation Scheme to ensure those businesses who can continue to operate can do so,” the Ai Group submission said. “Ai Group believes this reorientation of the ATS must be finalised as a matter of urgency especially given the weakening economic conditions in Australia.” The committee noted that several stakeholders suggested the ATS funds be retargeted once the three local carmakers – Ford, Holden and Toyota – have shut their factories by the end of 2017. “The committee considers that the

object of the ATS Act should be updated to specify that the ATS is designed for the promotion and growth of advanced automotive industries in Australia, including manufacturing components and materials, developing and commercialising new technologies, and engineering and design work for domestic and offshore automotive customers when that work is performed in Australia,” the submission said. The ATS was drawn up with the production of passenger vehicles in mind, but the committee believes the eligibility criteria should now be widened so that companies can claim for research

and development for non-automotive products. “Clearly, in the new post-2017 industry paradigm, an ability to claim R&D relating to products or services in non-automotive industry sectors will be a key to industry survival,” the committee says. Another change that should be made would the widening of the R&D definition to allow Australian companies working for offshore clients to claim for the R&D done in Australia. The committee noted that, while the ATS still had a notional $400 million in grants available, it had been calcu-

lated that only around $105 million of that would be drawn down. Companies have to invest at least three dollars for every dollar of assistance. The Abbott government had proposed ending the ATS in 2017, but the legislation did not gain the necessary support in the Senate. The Senate committee has recommended that the apparent underspend of $295 million be kept available out to 2021 and be made available to a wider range of companies. It also wants eligibility broadened to cover he promotion of advanced automotive operations including components and materials, developing new technologies and engineering and design work when that work is done in Australia. The committee was chaired by NSW Labor senator Sam Dastyari. Deputy chairman was SA senator Sean Edwards, Queensland Nationals senator Matthew Canavan, Victorian Labor senator Kim Carr, Queensland Labor senator Chris Ketter and SA independent senator Nick Xenophon. Other Senators participating were Victorian Motoring Enthusiasts Party senator Ricky Muir, Victorian independent John Madigan, Victorian Greens senator Janet Rice and ACT Liberal senator Zed Seselja.

immera Off Street Drag Racing and Burnout Club will pay tribute to late Warracknabeal teenager Ryan Mitchell at the weekend.

President Tom McInerney said the burnout competition’s street-class section would be named in Ryan’s honour. “His family is a very strong supporter of the club,” he said. Mr McInerney said organisers were expecting Saturday’s event to be hotly contested. “We have competitions three or four times a year, which usually attract about 30 or 40 entries, but there could be between 50 and 70 this time,” he said. He said an impressive prize pool, including $5000 for the winner of the elite class, was a major drawcard. “We are expecting entries

from across Australia – certainly from NSW and South Australia,” he said. “We’ve got some major competitors coming as well, such as Andrew Lynch, who’s a local, and Steve Exell from Melbourne.” Mr McInerney invited Wimmera people to check out the action at Warracknabeal Airport, which kicks off at 10am. “It’s a good atmosphere if you’re into motor sport,” he said. “It’s also a good opportunity for people to get together for a beer and a chat.” Mr McInerney said money raised from Saturday’s event would be donated to Beyondblue, the national depression program. He said people could search Wimmera Off Street Drag Racing and Burnout Club on Facebook for more information.

Rice rolls on for fourth victory The relentless Rhonda Rice juggernaut rolled on when the revitalised runner won her third race in three weeks and her fourth since June at Stawell last Saturday. Thriving on an hour’s training before work on most weekday mornings, the 46-year-old veteran continued to confound club-mates by winning a Stawell Amateur Athletic Club handicap after posting her fastest five kilometres since 2010. This came just two weeks after her win, by a staggering seven minutes, in a 16-kilometre Elwyn Haymes Memorial race on August 10. This was six days after another easy win with the cross country club in a 10km event at Deep Lead in late July. On form, an unprecedented fifth win in a standout season is not beyond her – remarkable given that Rice, who competes in up to 40 races a year, had to be coaxed into running in 2015 due to a ‘lack of motivation’. “I didn’t expect to be standing here so soon,” Rice said at the post-race presentation.

On Saturday, she surprised front-marker Stephen Baird by scooting past him two kilometres from the finish. Baird clung on for third leaving rookie Rob Blythman to do the chasing after Rice. In sub-juniors, Zephyr Tracey held off fast-finishing Logan Casey to score a brave win with Jordan Nitschke running his usual honest race for third. The club travels to Halls Gap on Saturday for a five-kilometre race. Details are available on 5356 2493.

Cross country win

Keeping up with the Jones boy proved a task too great even for the relentless Rice in a 6.5-kilometre Watkins Family race at Warrak last Sunday. Charlie Jones denied Rice a fifth race win this season after a grim battle in one of the toughest events on Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club’s calendar. Conceding 15 seconds start to Jones under handicap conditions, Rice was surprised when Jones overhauled her within the first two kilometres. Jones was equally dismayed when Rice was not only still on his tail but gaining with one kilometre to run.

finally worked out how good she can be.” The club returns to Ararat on Sunday for the King of the Hill, just three kilometres, but a race including a torturous climb to the lookout on One Tree Hill. – Keith Lofthouse

Tatyoon

MDFL Finals

Hawks major contenders BY JONATHAN BOX

atyoon has again found itself not only among Mininera and District Football League finals, but a major contender. After last year’s grand final loss, the Hawks have come out stronger and harder to redeem themselves in 2015. After moving into the finals, having lost only one game for the season, Tatyoon has certainly earnt its top-of-the-ladder spot and the expectation of success. The only game the Hawks lost for the season was to Lismore-Derrinallum, which has been the season’s big improver and is Tatyoon’s biggest threat for the flag. The sides have met twice this season, with Lismore-Derrinallum winning the first encounter by seven goals. However more recently in round 16, the Hawks got payback by getting the jump on the Demons to keep them goal-less in the first half and beat them by 11 goals. Last year’s league leading goal-kicker Steven Butler has again had a great season, kicking 72 goals and will be sure to play a massive role in these finals. Other key players that will be pivotal in the Hawks’ campaign will be Sean and Tim McDougall, along with Tyler Cronin and Rich Tucker. The recent return of Jarrod Blandford and Arthur Armstrong have proven to be handy. With all this put together, along with the versatility and leadership of Damian Cameron, it is easy to see why Tatyoon is such a powerhouse in the league.

Tatyoon Rural WISHING THE TATYOON FBNC ALL THE BEST IN THE FINALS!

Preview of finals Minor premier Tatyoon

will use its week off for some much-needed rest to get the team back to full strength ready for the semi-finals. Lismore-Derrinallum will play Penshurst in a qualifying final at Glenthompson on Saturday. In the two times these teams met throughout the season, Lismore-Derrinallum came away with wins. Both teams are coming off easy wins in their last two rounds and the big question on everyone’s lips will be who from Penshurst will get the job on Lismore-Derrinallum’s Wayne Loader. Loader has had a massive year in front of goals, kicking 118 for the season, 12 of them coming on Saturday when his team defeated Great Western by more than 38 goals. Penshurst, which plays a tough physical style of football, will rely on that to give it the edge over the Demons. Taylor McKenry has been in great form during the past few weeks

and, with support from team-mates such as Will McGregor, Brenton McKenry and forward Ben Hunt, this will be a great game to kick off the finals.

Elimination

In Sunday’s elimination final, Moyston-Willaura takes on GlenthompsonDunkeld at Derrinallum. The Pumas, who were fighting for a top-three finish for most of the season, have had two massive set-backs in the past two weeks, losing by 101 and 79 points respectively. This has made every game they play from now a fight for survival. Lachlan Hamilton, runner-up in the league goal-kicking, has been a constant performer and will play a massive role in their campaign. Along with Aidan Bell, Daniel Guinane and John Vanderwaal, last year’s premiers will be hoping this isn’t their final week. The Rams will be the underdogs going into Sunday’s game but if key players fire, a win is not out of reach.

Congratulations and good luck to all Tatyoon Football and Netball teams in the 2015 finals.

MDFL Finals

Moyston Willaura

Mixed lead-up for Mininera Pumas BY JONATHAN BOX

fter winning last year’s Mininera and District Football League premiership, Moyston-Willaura lost many of its premiership players including its coach, leaving everyone unsure of how the the season would turn out for the club.

With new coach Jacob Hamilton at the helm, the Pumas started the season well with a 33-goal victory over the Ararat Eagles. Having dropped only five games for the season sees the club well and truly imbedded in the finals. Although guaranteed a finals position for quite a few weeks, the Pumas’ push to get a top-three position was halted in round 17 with an uncharacteristic 15-goal loss to Wickliffe-Lake Bolac and a 13-goal loss to Tatyoon in round 18. Due to a fourth-placed finish, the Pumas have lost the finals second

chance and will be constantly be fighting for survival. The Pumas’ biggest threats for the finals series are Tatyoon, Lismore-Derrinallum and Penshurst, who have all beaten Moyston-Willaura throughout the year. The Pumas will hope to turn their last two homeand-away games of the season around and show, like last year, that anything can happen during finals and they should never be ruled out. Full forward Lachlan Hamilton has played a huge role in most of the Pumas’ wins for the year, kicking 94 goal for the season. Moyston-Willaura has plenty of depth and the likes of Daniel Guinane, John Vanderwaal, Aaron Pianta and Matt Peel are all in good form at the business end of the season. With the return of ruckman Josh Bywater to any team, ruling out Pumas success would be crazy.

Pressure rising

ANALYSIS: MIXX FM’s footy coverage team is ready and raring to go. Sports announcer Ben Williamson, front, will be joined by, from left, Scott Turner, Anthony Redford and Grant Kuchel from Saturday. Picture: KELLY LAIRD

BY SIMON KING he home-and-away rounds of Wimmera Hockey Association’s winter competition are complete, leaving seven teams to pack away their gear for another season.

Comprehensive coverage MIXX FM will kick off its extensive broadcast coverage of Horsham District and Wimmera league finals at the weekend. The MIXX FM team, headed by sports anchor Ben Williamson, will broadcast key finals throughout the next month. The team will call the Horsham District second-semi final clash between Laharum and Harrow-Balmoral at Dock Lake Reserve on Saturday. On Sunday, the team will head to Ararat for the Wimmera Football League elimination final between Ararat and Stawell. The calls will include blow-by-blow coverage and game analysis, with guests including former Richmond star defender Scott Turner, Horsham District league guru Grant Kuchel and former Stawell premiership player Anthony Redford. Williamson, a former Wimmera league player and coach, said he had received positive feedback following games broadcast earlier this year.

“We’ve had an excellent response,” he said. “I’m working with a great team of blokes with plenty of footy experience. Along with calling the senior game, we will also be keeping listeners up-to-date with what else is happening around the ground, including netball results.” Williamson said it was exciting to see Ace Radio increase its football and netball coverage across the region, with the aim of broadcasting games weekly next year.

Broadcast schedule

September 5: HDFNL preliminary final, at Pimpinio. September 6: WFL first semi-final, Horsham City Oval, subject to results. September 12: HDFNL grand final, Horsham City Oval. September 13: WFL preliminary final, Central Park, Stawell. September 19: WFL grand final, Anzac Park, Warracknabeal.

For the remaining 12 teams, the pressure will rise to another level and numbers will further reduce during the next three weeks until the best teams are decided on September 12 at grand finals at Nhill’s Davis Park. Warrack Revengers’ place in junior finals was confirmed after their only rival for the place lost last weekend. They join the three season-long pace-setters in Nhill Leopards, Yanac Warriors and Kaniva Raiders. The last game of the regular season also decided the last place in the women’s division. A win by Warrack Women would have seen them progress, but a stronger Dimboola denied them the opportunity. An unexpected draw with the higher-ranked Horsham Jets, combined with Warrack’s loss, allowed Nhill Thunderbirds to claim a finals berth along with Yanac Women, Dimboola Women and Horsham Jets. The four teams that will contest the open division finals were confirmed weeks ago, although this has far from reduced the intensity of the games in the past few rounds. Yanac Tigers, Warrack Hoops, Kaniva Cobras and Dimboola Men are all capable of beating each other, which should result in a captivating finals series. Semi-finals in all divisions will be at Dimboola Health and Fitness Centre on Saturday.

Juniors

The juniors first semi-final will see reigning premiers Kaniva Raiders take on Warrack Revengers. Although there was a 16-point difference on the ladder between the two teams, on-field form suggests a close game. Top-of-the-ladder Leopards survived a minor

mid-season form slump and go into their semifinal against Yanac Warriors with confidence, having beaten them once and playing out a draw in their two encounters this season. Warriors will also be confident, having scored 14 goals in their win last weekend.

Women

The first semi-final in the women’s competition will be a replay of the encounter last Friday evening between Horsham Jets and Nhill Thunderbirds, which ended in a draw. The Jets’ form has been patchy, with impressive wins contrasting with unexpected losses. The Thunderbirds had to fight hard to finish ahead of Warrack and Kaniva women for fourth place. The greatest influence on this game might be player availability with both teams suffering significantly when key players are unable to play.

Open

The semi-final between Kaniva Cobras and Dimboola should be a close game, with the Cobras finishing higher on the ladder, but boasting a poor record in finals, contrasting with Dimboola’s recent better form. These two teams have dominated the competition since the early 1990s and have built a fierce rivalry. There is rarely more than a goal or two between these two teams. The Tigers are unbeaten and the Hoops have only lost their two encounters with the Tigers.

Semi-final draw

Juniors: 9am, Kaniva Raiders v Warrack Revengers; 10.30am, Nhill Leopards v Yanac Warriors. Women: noon, Yanac Women v Dimboola Women; 1.30pm, Horsham Jets v Nhill Thunderbirds. Open: 3pm, Kaniva Cobras v Dimboola Men; 4.30pm, Yanac Tigers v Warrack Hoops.

Robins shines for Giants in dominant goal-kicking display BY MICK SHANNON

Kain Robins asserted his dominance in Mallee Football League with an eightgoal haul as he led Southern Mallee Giants to victory over WoomelangLascelles. The Giants now sit in second spot but need the Cats to lose this weekend if they are to keep the second chance. Sea Lake-Nandaly Tigers were back on the winners’ list with a 56-point win over Ouyen United, with Jordan Doering kicking six goals and Bernard Rigby dominant through the midfield.

The match of the round this week will involve Woomelang-Lascelles looking to reclaim second spot when it hosts Ouyen United. The Cats have had the wood over the Demons, winning all three encounters this year but Ouyen United is capable of top-class footy. Finding a way to get on top at the clearances will be a tough ask for the Demons, with the Cats able to consistently rotate their midfield. Trent Donnan, Pierce Liddle, Jake Hogan, Bryn Wheadon and Arnold

Kirby are all strong centre players who team well under the ruck work of Jamie Church and Joshua Ratcliffe. The Demons will need Ben Mole to have a big game in the ruck while midfielders Marc Hahnel, Henry Armour and Joshua Grigg need to work hard offensively and defensively. Both sides will be hard at the ball and should make for a strong inside game. Ouyen United will struggle to contain the Cats’ skilled ball-users, which will be enough for WoomelangLascelles to claim victory.

Last hurrah

Walpeup-Underbool has one last chance to get a win on the board before it more than likely merges with arch-rival Ouyen United. The Roos will not have an easy task however, because they have to travel to Sea Lake to take on the top-of-thetable Tigers. Expect big games from Walpeup-Underbool veterans Kane Munro, Matthew Palmer, Luke Nathan and Travis Latta. The Roos have played some good football, with young players Josh

Coates, Samuel Mead and Keegan Kelly improving as the season has progressed. The Tigers will be out to finish the year off with a victory as they chase two premierships in a row. Big-game players Jason Collins, Matthew Elliot and Tom Summerhayes will be hard to stop in the middle and if they are left unopposed will give easy delivery to key forwards. A good crowd should turn out for a sentimental game – hopefully one the Roos can win. But the Tigers will be too strong and win by 20 points.

Ewes set up clash with flag favourites BY SARAH SCULLY atimuk United held off Laharum on Saturday to set up a second semifinal showdown with Horsham District Football Netball League minor premier Edenhope-Apsley.

The Demons came out firing at Edenhope, playing focused netball and moving the ball well. Although they were strong in attack, their defenders were unable to account for the height of Natimuk shooter Shannon Couch, who easily collected rebounds in the ring. The lead see-sawed in an even first half, with the Ewes taking a narrow two-goal lead into half-time.

Horsham District Netball – A Grade Qualifying final: Natimuk United 42 d Laharum 31 Elimination final: Noradjuha-Quantong 54 d Harrow-Balmoral 52 Early in the third quarter, the Demons brought co-coach Caitlin Story into goal attack, shifting fellow coach Maddie Iredell into wing attack. It was Story’s first game since breaking a finger against Pimpinio in round 12. The Ewes extended their lead to five goals in the term and continued their momentum in the last quarter to win by 11 goals. Defenders Jo Taylor and Casey Vanstan were influential,

taking some strong rebounds and intercepts, while Emily Hateley provided plenty of drive in centre. Nikki Ervin top-scored for Laharum in her first game back from injury, shooting 19 goals.

Thriller Laharum has another chance on Sunday when it meets Noradjuha-Quantong, which survived a thriller against Harrow-Balmoral in an elimination final.

Sunday’s match was close all day, with neither team able to break the game open. The Bombers were up by two goals at quarter-time, half-time and three-quarter time, but the Roos refused to concede, forcing the game into overtime. The Roos dominated the first seven minutes of overtime, holding a three-goal lead at the change of ends. An intercept by NoradjuhaQuantong centre Mikayla Murphy gave her side the chance it needed, allowing the Bombers to convert on the opposition’s centre pass, and hang on to win by two goals in a thriller. Young gun Maddi Focroul played a vital role curbing the influence of experienced wing attack Janelle Knight, while

team-mate Sammi Avery was outstanding in goal attack. Roo Jess Anson shot beautifully, while centre Sarah Langley drove well through the midcourt. The loss ends Harrow-Balmoral’s premiership defence. Horsham District fans will get to see this year’s premiership favourite Edenhope-Apsley in action at Taylors Lake on Saturday. The Saints defeated Natimuk United by seven goals in their last encounter in round 16. The Ewes rely on Couch’s height in the ring, but she will need to be accurate against the Saints’ stellar defenders. The Ewes will also rely on talented defensive duo Taylor and Vanstan, who will enjoy

a good battle with EdenhopeApsley’s long list of shooters, including Emma Ryan and Sammy Mulraney. There is plenty on the line, with the winner ensured a grand final berth. The loser will meet the winner of Sunday’s highly anticipated showdown between Laharum and Noradjuha-Quantong. The sides drew in round four, with Laharum winning by two goals in round 15. Both teams boast strong shooters and defenders at either end of the court and youth in the centre. Matches between Laharum and Noradjuha-Quantong are typically fast, physical and intense. With elimination looming – Sunday’s first semi-final will be no different.

Wipe all past results – it’s a clean slate in netball finals BY COURTNEY CLOUGH

f I were a gambler, I would wipe this season’s Wimmera Netball Association results, clean the slate and call game-on for teams competing for the ultimate prize that will be sitting court-side on grand final day at Warracknabeal’s Anzac Park.

Sure, where you sit on the ladder gives you a chance. But where you finish gives you confidence. But we all know finals are a different ball game. Last week Stawell said goodbye to season 2015 in style with a convincing win over Nhill. Dimboola waited until the last quarter to run out victorious after a good glimpse at Horsham Saints’ future talent. Horsham dominated from the first whistle to finish the season undefeated with a consolidating win over Ararat. MinyipMurtoa led all day to scrape across the line against spirited Warrack Eagles in a thriller.

Qualifying final

While the Eagles have had

Bibby out of the play. Whoever can get the upper hand, in a close one, will proceed to the next week and meet undefeated Horsham in a battle for the first grand final spot.

the wood over the Burras this season. Their hit-out last weekend told a different story. The Eagles, without key players Megan Werner and Kerry Schultz, went down by one goal. Goal attack Werner will be welcomed back into the maroon and gold this weekend, and her contest with classy Minyip-Murtoa defender Stevie Bibby will be a spectacle. Consistent Burras centre Spencer Smith’s passing into the goalers will be damaging for the opposition, but she will have to be on her game early because Eagles co-captain Sarah Spicer will be in her way. Spicer will make Smith work for everything; the damaging workhorse in the middle for the Eagles will provide plenty of quality play across the court to make it her own.

Dimboola v Ararat

IN ATTACK: Warrack Eagles goal attack Megan Werner. There needs to be plenty of work happening up front for the Burras. The more they can get the ball to their shooters via the most direct route, the better the chance to convert on the score board. Burras goal-attack Emma Clark must continue to support her shooter Kirby Knight under the post and if she can set the

tempo early, they can come out on top. But it’s the Warrack Eagles’ firepower in attack that sees Summer Schultz reconnected with Werner. Versatile young Eagles talent Leiah McKenzie will be out to provide inspirational onepercenters while keeping likely opponent wing attack Billie

Consistency is the key for either side as they battle it out to keep their finals chances alive, and head into the next week. Ararat would have been unimpressed with its results in the final round against Horsham but the Rats should leave that result right where it happened. It’s finals, the Rats have the experience and they know what it takes to get there. It’s been done before and they should not take Dimboola lightly. Dimboola tasted the sweet return of success of playing finals in 2014 and will be keen to last longer than one week. The Roos deserve success. They’ve quietly kept their spot in fourth position and their team is full of knowledge but must remain connected. Connections can always be easily managed, maintained and re-established at any stage through communication.

Good, honest and open communication creates solid combinations, team-work and challenges opposition sides even if they’re being beaten, or don’t like the coach’s move. Look at the match-up, and keep the link – let the ball go. The Ararat side is one of the best sides for combinations, starting at the front with Jacki Gibson and Megan Shea. Through the middle Olivia West and Kate Bligh link into defence through Rebecca Skrabl and provide a consolidated effort to create plenty of opportunities. If Ararat gets off to a good start, it will be hard to keep in touch with, but Dimboola is up for the challenge. The Rats’ core group of experience across the court, including Ant Toet and Carly Werner, must keep them on track. The reward? Collecting $200 and passing go to the next week of finals. • Wimmera netball finals feature, page 41.

Can the upsets continue? BY GRANT KUCHEL ound one of Horsham District ootball League finals action resulted in one massive upset.

The 15-win, five-loss record that Kalkee had over Harrow Balmoral became 15 wins and six losses, as the Southern Roos ran all over the Kees to record a comfortable 21-point qualifying final victory. The margin would have been even greater had the Roos kicked straighter. Harrow-Balmoral now moves into a second semi-final confrontation against premiership favourite Laharum at Taylors Lake on Saturday. Harrow-Balmoral will enter the contest against the Demons knowing it can hold the Demons defensively. But the big question is whether it can kick enough goals to put Laharum under pressure. In both meetings this season the Roos have held the Demons to 14 goals, but the issue is they have only kicked nine goals and three goals in their two meetings. If Harrow-Balmoral is going to create a second big upset in a week, it simply has to dominate the middle of the ground and the stoppages. Callum Hobbs, Will Plush and Eric Guthrie are the pivotal trio at ground level the Roos will rely on. All three win the hard ball and push hard both offensively and defensively to help team-mates. Opposing them is a Laharum on-ball unit that boasts a bit of talent of its own. Robbie Miller is tough and uncompromising and gives nothing away, and Elliot Braithwaite and Pat Easson are both willing lieutenants who often slip under the opposition’s guard. Laharum will rely on key Page

Horsham District Football League finals Saturday: Second semi-final Laharum v Harrow-Balmoral Sunday: First semi-final Kalkee v Taylors Lake ruckman Shannon Argall to control the air. Argall is one of the dominant ruckmen in the league and, if he is allowed to take marks at will around the ground, Laharum’s small men will come alive. Argall will however have plenty to contend with. Anthony Close is likely to start in the middle and will look to push forward to make Argall accountable in the Roos’ forward half. The Roos can call on Mick Phelan and swingman Jandre Slabbert to combat Argall when Close needs a rest. Laharum possesses a huge advantage inside its forward 50-metre arc, boasting multiple goal-kickers Jason Przibilla and Joe Harrison, who have each kicked more than 65 goals this season. Mark Dorward and Rhys Bennett have also passed the 40-goal mark. If one is held, the others often pick up the slack. The onerous task of stopping the Demons’ forwards will fall to tall defenders Quentin Willmott and Matt Robertson. But they will need to get the ball to ground and then rely on the likes of Dalton Burns, Will Staude and Daniel Brody to sweep it out of defence. Laharum’s willingness to push hard and put pressure on the opposition is second to none. When it gains possession the likes of Sam Winfield, Gerard Matthews, Daniel Griffiths and Cam Bruce all run hard to create options that Harrow-Balmoral will struggle to contain.

Harrow-Balmoral wasn’t given much of a chance last week and if it is to knock off the heavyweights, it needs to manufacture goals and make sure its running game doesn’t drop off late in the afternoon. It’s a tough ask and Laharum will still be burning over last year’s debacle and emphatically show the remaining teams that it is ready for any challenge.

First semi-final

Swifts host a first semi-final that might be decided between a medical room and a tribunal. Kalkee was stunned last week and its medical room had plenty of attendees. Steve Schultz’s hamstring was obviously hampering him, Matt Magee was concussed and Tim Wade didn’t look to be fully fit. There will be interest to see if any of these players can be right by Sunday. Taylors Lake faces a far greater headache. Joint coach and reigning Dellar Medallist Deek Roberts has an appointment with the tribunal during the week and any suspension will signal the end of the season for the Lakers. These two sides have met only once during the year and it was a shoot-out, with Kalkee prevailing by 33 points in a high-scoring game. But the Lakers were in front at half time and showed all and sundry they were capable of matching it with one of the league heavyweights. There might well be contrasting game styles. Taylors Lake will look to run the ball

PIVOTAL ROLE: Harrow-Balmoral will again rely on star Callum Hobbs at ground level in Saturday’s match against Laharum. Hobbs’ ability to win the hard ball and push forward is important. Picture: WILLAMY IMAGES and break the lines, while Kalkee will be intent on using its taller timber to shut the Lakers out of the game. Josh Beddison was brilliant in his first game back in a month, kicking seven out of the side’s 11 goals and Taylors Lake will find it difficult to match up on the big forward. There is little doubt the Lakers are short on height. Jordan Wakeling will have to shoulder the ruck load again and if he needs a rest, Andrew Watson or Jason Kannar will be called upon. Kalkee doesn’t boast a big tall ruckman either, but has some bigger bodied players. Josh Mibus, Grant Schultz, Shaun Gilbert and Paul Christian all can throw their weight

around in a contest and they will no doubt try to gain a physical advantage over the Lakers’ midfield, led by Carl Thiez and Pat Purcell. North Park in Stawell will be in sensational condition and should suit the fast-running Taylors Lake side. Shannon Stewart, Jack McRae, Jye Smith and Zac Anderson can all cover the ground at a rapid rate and, with a firm surface and dry ball, could present Kalkee with a few problems. Kalkee has won four more games than Taylors Lake this season and it’s hard to see Kalkee playing two bad games in a row. I’m expecting the Kees to prevail and book a preliminary final appointment.

Junior footballers, netballers shine at awards night Horsham Saint Oliver Timms and Stawell’s Kirby Griffiths won the premier awards up for grabs at a Wimmera Football League and Wimmera Netball Association presentation night.

Timms polled 20 votes to win the under-17 football best-and-fairest award from Minyip-Murtoa’s Nicholas Kelson and Nhill’s Lucas Dahlenburg, 19, and Jarrod Illig, Stawell, and Thomas Wentworth, Horsham, both 18. Stawell’s Aidan Jensz was leading goal-kicker with 51. Griffiths won the 17 and under netball trophy with 25 votes, from Kiani Stewart of Warrack Eagles 23, and Georgia Hiscock, Horsham 22.

Olson cashes in Dollar

denhope trainer Bevan Olson made a much-deserved return to the winners’ circle last Sunday at Naracoorte.

The Olson stable had home-bred mare Green Back Dollar, lining up in a maiden plate over 1430-metres, with Adelaide apprentice jockey Eran Boyd in the saddle. Boyd settled the seven-year-old back a little worse than mid-field after the start, avoiding the charge of the light brigade. Green Back Dollar made her move on the swing for home and started to make up ground. Once balanced up in the straight, Boyd gave the daughter of ill-fated Green Perfume clear galloping room. Green Back Dollar dashed away to score a workman-like win, by almost two lengths. She has had 15 starts for one win and two minor placings and earnings of $12,040.

Perfume registers Stawell trainers Terry and Karina O’Sullivans’ persistence with veteran mare Golden Perfume paid dividends at Warrnambool. Golden Perfume had her 29th start, while in a 1200-metre maiden plate, with Chelsea Hall on board. Hall box-seated aboard Golden Perfume, enjoying a charmed run just behind the leaders. The seven-year-old by Green Perfume travelled like the winner a long way out, thriving in the heavy track conditions.

Golden Perfume scored her maiden win by one-and-a-half lengths. Now the old girl has found form, she should measure up to 0-58 grade races over a similar distance in the future. In the following race, Hall avoided a near miss aboard Brief Melody, when it veered sharply to the left, shortly after the field was released. Fortunately, horse and rider escaped unharmed.

Helandy, Puls prove handy

Horsham jockey Christine Puls booted home a winner at last Sunday’s Naracoorte meeting. Puls was aboard Sue Jaensch-trained Helandy, in a benchmark 72, 1100-metre event. In a fine front-running display, Helandy was too slick for the field, scoring a narrow win over fast-finishing Miss Joolia.

lee’s independent tribunal on charges that threaten to rub them out of the finals. Both will face the judiciary after incidents during games last weekend. Vic Country representative Pekin will answer a rough-conduct charge from a final homeand-away match against Ararat at Horsham City Oval. Roberts is up on a striking charge from the Lakers’ elimi-

nation final against JeparitRainbow at Kalkee. A field umpire reported Pekin and sent him from the ground with a red card in the opening term of the match at Horsham City Oval after a collision with Ararat player Harry Ganley. Ganley suffered concussion and took no further part in the game. He will not play in the Rats’ elimination final against Stawell this weekend.
