project designed to provide a platform to help people generate momentum for projects and special causes will go Wimmerawide.

Organisers behind Sing For Something, which had a successful launch in Horsham during the Australia Day weekend, are exploring the potential to run future events in centres from

as far as Ararat to Nhill and Warracknabeal. They are confident the events, apart from raising money and awareness for a variety of causes, have the potential to strengthen a sense of community solidarity across the region. Sing For Something involves creating events where people can show support for a designated project or cause by simply turning up and pro-

viding their voice for a collective song. On Monday, Sing For Something at Horsham’s Exchange Hotel beer garden attracted about 50 people, who gathered in support for a fight against brain cancer. The fund-raising effort generated money for Carries Beanies4Brain Cancer. The crowd, after a few practice runs

with lyrical and musical support, sang as a collective choir the Men at Work song Down Under to fit in with the Australia Day theme. The event then expanded into a fun and festive afternoon of musical entertainment and interactive performances. ACE Radio, through The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM, is a primary driving

force behind the concept. Station promotions manager Kaycee Bould said Sing For Something had a predictably tentative start, but the expectation was that the concept would quickly gather momentum. “From an ACE perspective, we were always driven by a need to make this something we could do regionally,” she said.

De Santis demands court recount Ripon BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

challenge of the razor-thin result of November’s State Election in Ripon by the Victorian Labor Party is in the hands of the Supreme Court of Victoria. Labor candidate Sarah De Santis has filed a petition with the Supreme Court demanding a recount of votes cast in Ripon. The court acts as Victoria’s Court of Disputed Returns. Labor filed the petition only one day before the court’s 40-day post-election deadline to appeal. It calls on the court to order another recount of Ripon votes. Incumbent Liberal Louise Staley officially returned as Member for Ripon after weeks of vote counting by the Victorian Electoral Commission, VEC, in December. Ms De Santis was initially de-

clared the winner by 31 votes, but Ms Staley requested a recount that ultimately put her 15 votes ahead. It was one of the narrowest election results in Victorian history. Ripon was a key battleground for both major parties in the election as one of the most marginal seats in the state. The Labor and Liberal parties both made significant funding announcements in the area in the lead-up to the election. The Victorian Labor Party immediately raised concerns about the validity of the VEC recount that returned Ms Staley when the result was announced in December. “The Labor party holds concerns that a formal recount was not performed,” Labor assistant state secretary Kosmos Samaras said. “We are looking for a formal recount from start to finish.” Labor state secretary Samuel Rae

“Victorian Labor is committed to preserving the certainty and clarity of the electoral process and considers this action a necessary step to ensure this is achieved”

– Samuel Rae

confirmed in a brief statement on Friday the party had lodged a petition of appeal. “This petition seeks the court to order a recount of the Ripon ballot from the 2018 Victorian Election,” he said. “Victorian Labor is committed to preserving the certainty and clarity of the electoral process and considers this action a necessary step to ensure this is achieved.”

The Supreme Court of Victoria website has yet to list a date for the appeal, and Labor refused to speculate on a timeline for the process. When the court rules on Labor’s appeal the decision will be final. Ms Staley’s win was considered one of the few bright spots for the Liberal party amid a landslide election loss. A recount could jeopardise her seat in the Victorian Legislative Assembly and her place as shadow treasurer. Opposition leader Michael O’Brien appointed Ms Staley to the shadow cabinet in December. Election voting details showed Ms Staley had 38.93 percent of first-preference votes, ahead of Ms De Santis, 38.15. After distribution of preferences, Ms Staley had 20,035 votes, or 50.02 percent, and Ms De Santis, 20,020, or 49.98 percent.

United in voice From page 1 “We were delighted with the response to our inaugural event in Horsham and the plan now is to grow it throughout the Wimmera, Grampians and southern Mallee,” Ms Bould said. She said an organising committee hoped to arrange multiple events every year and was inviting the public to get in touch with their ideas. “As much as we would love to respond to all requests, we are obviously going to have to scrutinize all suggestions,” she said. “The ones where we might be able to have the greatest impact for our communities in our region will get priority. “That doesn’t mean ideas are limited to any specific theme. “Our Sing For Something was based on a muchneeded response to a disease that had an obvious impact on Wimmera people. “But other ideas might be down a completely different track, where there is an identified need for something to promote and sing about in the community. “We’re confident we can make a significant difference in the advocacy of our region and communities while at the same time provide fun, family-friendly entertainment.” Horsham’s Rachel Stephens, who is fighting brain cancer, joined family, friends and supporters at Monday’s Sing For Something. Ms Bould said what was immediately obvious at the event was a positive community atmosphere. “It created a great sense of community. Despite the emotional reason why we were making it happen, everyone was in high spirits knowing they were involved in something that was beneficial and fun,” she said. “We had to work our way through our processes and have identified a few bugs we have to iron out, but can’t wait for our next project. “We’re looking at the 2019 calendar and hopes are that we could organise the next Sing For Something event next month.” Ms Bould said people could forward suggestions through a Sing For Something Facebook page.

Outbreaks of blue-green algae across waterways in the Murray Darling Basin have started to impact on the northern Mallee. GWMWater has reported elevated levels of blue-green algae sourced from the Murray River at Piangil. Piangil offtake on the Murray River provides water supply for Manangatang. GWMWater has started carting drinking water to Manangatang from neighbouring towns. It has urged Manangatang customers to minimise outside water use until water supply from the Murray River could resume. This also applies to outside watering at the school, hospital and recreation reserves. The corporation will continue to supply rural stock and domestic customers with water from the Piangil offtake. GWMwater managing director Mark Williams said testing had revealed algae was above recommended levels for drinking, but below levels recommended for recreation.

Centenary air show for Nhill N

hill’s reputation as an aviation hot spot will gain momentum later this year with planning underway for another major air show.

Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre officials have pencilled in October 26 for The 2019 Nhill Air Show with a promise of a ‘bigger and better’ event. A 2015 show, which celebrated 75 years since the Royal Australian Air Force established a base at Nhill Aerodrome, attracted a crowd of between 3500 and 4000 aviation enthusiasts. People travelled from across Victoria and beyond for the occasion, which involved almost five hours of aircraft flight displays, manoeuvres and aerobatics. This year’s air show will coincide

with the 100th anniversary of the first plane to land at Nhill aerodrome and be part of extensive centenary celebrations. Show convenor Rob Lynch said the Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre Air Show sub-committee had been working ‘behind the scenes’ and was ready to share the news. He said the air show promised to be another fantastic aviation event. “Since the successful 2015 air show, a week hasn’t gone by without someone asking when the next one will be,” he said. “The heritage centre committee has spent the past couple of years working on a Wirraway project. Now the Wirraway has landed and is on display, we can concentrate on the next event – this year’s air show.

“It will be an action-packed day involving a variety of aircraft displays, demonstrations and family-friendly entertainment. “We have reviewed what worked and what we can do better from 2015 and we’ve started working on making the 2019 event even bigger and better.” Mr Lynch said the organising group would be calling for expressions of interest for catering in February and looking for community involvement along the way. “We encourage everyone to like Nhill Aviation Heritage Centre and Nhill Air Show Facebook pages to stay up-to-date with all air-show news and information,” he said. A display by RAAF Roulettes precision flying team led a series of

highlights on a 2015 program and patrons also soaked up death-defying aerobatics and fly-overs from historic ‘war birds’ including a P40 Mustang, Wirraway and Boomerang, and a Marchetti S2-11 jet. Mr Lynch said the breadth of attractions would depend heavily on how much sponsorship the event could attract. “We had wonderful support last time and much will again depend on how many sponsors come on board,” he said. The air show will have a 1919 theme to correspond with the centenary and Mr Lynch said the ‘feelers’ would be out to see if there were any people who could bring historic aircraft appropriate for the occasion. “We are talking about planes that

Children rescued from hot cars in Western Victoria, including Horsham and Ararat, have prompted Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford to warn people to take care. Ms Pulford said figures from September 1, 2017 to August 31, 2018 showed paramedics responded to dozens of calls. In response to heatwave conditions across the state last week, she said last year’s statistics included three occurrences in Ararat, three in Horsham and one in Northern Grampians municipalities. The State Government is promoting Never Leave Kids in Cars and Survive the Heat campaigns. Ms Pulford said the Never Leave Kids in Cars campaign warned parents about the dangers of leaving children in hot cars where they were at risk of life-threatening heatstroke, dehydration and organ damage. “The temperature inside a car can double in just minutes in extreme conditions and a child’s body temperature rises three to five times faster than an adult’s,” she said. “While taking your child with you might seem like an inconvenience, leaving them in the car is risking their life.” Ms Pulford said people at the highest risk of heat exhaustion include people over 65, people with a pre-existing medical condition, pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and babies and young children.

might be about 100 years old or built to 100-year-old designs,” he said. “It is so hard to get them here but if anyone has these types of planes they are more than welcome to get in touch. “Of course we also welcome anyone with historic aircraft of any kind. “We’re very excited. We’re encouraging anyone involved with, or who visited, the first air show to get behind us again and of course anyone else to come along and experience something special. “This air show is being put on simply because of popular demand.” People can gain more information about the 2019 Nhill Air Show at website www.nhillaviationheritagecentre. com.au.

Ararat U3A will start its 2019 activities from Monday. Monday is also term-one enrolment day for classes and organisers are welcoming back members or people interested in joining the group. Ararat U3A president Pat McAloon said anyone aged over 50 and retired or semi-retired from the workforce had an open invitation. Mr McAloon said term-one enrolment day would be at Melbourne Polytechnic’s Ararat campus. He said he was delighted the keynote speaker for the day would be Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison. Mr McAloon said U3A Ararat reached a record membership of 150 in 2018. “It is always a challenge to meet the needs of our membership. However, the committee has attempted to provide a wide variety of classes and activities,” he said. The group has scheduled a series of lectures, with guest speakers during term one including East Grampians Health Service chief executive Andrew Freeman and Kate Astbury from Grampians Community Health. Mr McAloon said the group had also scheduled a visit to Mandela Exhibition at Melbourne Museum and a Volcano Discovery Walk at Derrinallum. An Ararat Gardens Lake Walk will also continue in first term and bushwalks, led by Margaret Farrar, are also planned for later in the term.

We’re a good mix – take advantage I

f a mongrel can be ‘any animal resulting from the crossing of different breeds or types’, then – sorry everyone – the chances are that this is probably the best way to describe the vast majority of generational Australians. As a whole, whether our families have European, Aboriginal, Asian, African or whatever heritage, the chances are that family trees in Australia will eventually tail off with a string of mongrels.

Ignore dark perceptions of ignorance and bigotry. ‘Mongrel’, by definition, is far from as some suggest, a derogatory term for any Australian. In fact, it is something many argue we as a constantly evolving national human collective should be proud. For some, having mixed heritage has long been a badge of honour. The truth is, the greater the genetic mix the better it probably is for Australia.

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson, editor

The further we travel from the illogical and scientifically disproven measuring stick of the great lie of ‘race’, the more we can surge ahead. The 2003 mapping of the human

genome revealed differences between people of the world were so insignificant they were irrelevant. It meant that while as individuals we were all different, we were, as an animal, fundamentally the same. The Australia Day weekend again attracted a curious mix of national pride and celebration as well as, for some, anxiety and disillusionment, much of it based on a perception of race. It told us that while Australia, on many levels was getting things right

as a collective culture, still had plenty of work ahead. We look forward to a time of unequivocal national solidarity, where we can continue to explore the benefits of a cross-cultural melting pot and permanently place race firmly in the irrelevant box where it belongs. We can never return to times past or even right some obvious wrongs, but as a society must be willing, hand-inhand, to step through open doors to a progressive future.

Accolades aplenty on Australia Day People who have provided support, direction, leadership or help for their communities were the celebration of Australia Day events across the region. Municipalities either confirmed or announced Australia Day award winners in a major outpouring of community spirit at the weekend. From Ararat district to the South Australian border and the Grampians to the Mallee, much of the region joined in a national day of celebration. Ararat’s Judy Wohlers, Willaura Healthcare Outdoor Market and the Ararat Ladies’ Social Bike Group were Ararat Rural City Council’s Australia Day Award winners for 2019. Mrs Wohlers is a founding member of Ararat Ladies’ Social Bike Group and is Ararat’s Ambassador in 2019 after more than 40 years’ voluntary work with the group. The Ararat Ladies’ Social Bike

Creating a stronger voice BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

he Wimmera Pride Project is searching for volunteers to join its newly formed committee as it expands in 2019.

The project was started in 2015 to give a voice to the Wimmera’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer and gender non-binary – LGBTI – community. It was founded and run by Horsham’s Maddi Ostapiw and Loucas Vettos, who are looking to expand its operations to include more people. Ms Ostapiw said people with a range of skills and life experiences were encouraged to consider joining. “What we want are people who have a passion for LGBTI acceptance and will be able to come on board and help us work out what we’ll be doing in the future,” she said. “We’d love to have people with professional skills like media, financial or administration knowledge, but what we really want is the lived experience of being part of the LGBTI community or supporting it. “In order to be totally representative we need the voices of transgender people, gay men, lesbian women, parents who have supported their children through coming out, Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander people. “If we get more people on board who have differing opinions, who have different skills, who are a different cross-section of the LGBTI community or the ally community, they’re really going to make us a strong voice for progress within the Wimmera.” Ms Ostapiw said she and Mr Vettos

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: Volunteer Patrick Quaine, left, and Wimmera Pride Project joint-founder Loucas Vettos are inviting people to take ownership of the project. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER were proud of the work they had done establishing the Wimmera Pride Project, but were equally excited to expand it. She said the organisation currently had an interim committee of about six people. “We have a lot of amazing projects on the way,” she said. “We have a consultant on board who is going to help us work out the direction of our new committee, so it’s quite an exciting time.” Ms Ostapiw encouraged people who were passionate about LGBTI issues to consider volunteering to join the committee.

“We want to be a community group that represents our community and puts us in a place where we can truly make a difference in the future,” she said. “At the moment we would be happy for anybody interested in being part of the committee to contact us and sit in on our committee meetings as a guest so that they can get an idea about how it works and gauge their interest. “Committees can be some effort, particularly when you’re trying to get something off the ground and build it as we are at the moment.

“We’ve also got some money from grants right now, so if people don’t necessarily have the skills to fit into a certain role, we can put some training into helping them gain skills.” Some skills the Wimmera Pride Project is looking for are: photography and editing; administration; finance and fundraising; grant writing; event planning; and advocacy. People wanting more information or interested in joining the committee can call Ms Ostapiw on 0437 244 468 or visit Facebook page The Wimmera Pride Project.

Council trade offer Ararat Rural City Council is keen to hear from ‘local’ tradies. The council has opened tenders for district electricians who can provide services including test and tag, painters including road line-markers, plumbers, fire-hazard removers, builders and carpenters keen to be included on its preferred suppliers’ list. Chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said the preferred suppliers’ list gave Ararat district trade businesses a great opportunity for regular work with the council. “We always want to give back to the local economy and support local business wherever possible, and this is one way we do it,” he said. “It’s not only a win for our tradies – it’s really important for the council to have local businesses who can respond quickly to urgent issues such as a leaking roof, a blocked drain or an electrical fault.” Dr Harrison said businesses that successfully applied for the tender would be appointed to the list for up to five years, until June 30, 2023. “When the list is finalised through the tender process, the council is able to use any included business for jobs, which makes things much more efficient and cost effective, saving us a great deal of time and money,” he said. “Businesses on the list will receive regular, ongoing work from the council, so it’s well worth applying.” Businesses keen to apply for the opportunity can visit the council’s e-tendering portal at website www.eprocure. com.au/ararat. Tenders close at 2pm, Tuesday.

Fire anniversary about solidarity O

BY DEAN LAWSON

rganisers of a commemoration service marking 10 years since a Black Saturday bushfire ravaged Horsham’s Haven district will use the occasion to promote community solidarity.

Haven Community Enterprise chairwoman Sue Exell said Saturday’s event, which Victorian Governor Linda Dessau would attend, would acknowledge community resilience and recovery. “It’s about regeneration and bringing people together – people involved, affected or who helped at the time – in a fun and relaxed way. It is open to everyone,” she said. Commemorative activities, part of statewide anniversary acknowledgements surrounding Black Saturday fires, start at 1.45pm at Haven Recreation Reserve. The 2009 Horsham fire started at Remlaw, west of Horsham, on February 7 as a result of a fallen power line. Intense weather conditions ultimately pushed the fire to the south and east, where it skipped the Wimmera River and outskirts of Horsham proper but hit Haven, south of Horsham. Of the 11 homes burnt down during the Horsham fire, seven were at Haven. The toll also included several damaged houses and the loss of several outbuildings, sheds, fences and livestock. It also set Horsham Golf Club ablaze. Mrs Exell said the fire also had a long-term impact on the community. “What is often unsaid in this type of scenario is the emotional trauma that followed the fire,” she said. “There are several heart-wrenching stories that emerged from the incident and people to this day are still struggling to come to grips with what happened. “People not only lost prized possessions, but also priceless and irreplaceable memorabilia and much-loved pets. “There were a lot of horror stories and a landscape that people had come to love and appreciate had also suddenly disappeared. “Of course there was also heavy financial

burden and people with a need to put their lives back together. “This takes a heavy toll on any community. Going through the Royal Commission and a drawn-out class action into the fire was also incredibly stressful.”

Remembrance rails

Mrs Exell said part of the occasion would be Governor Dessau opening Community Remembrance Rails at Haven Community Gazebo. The opening will be at 3pm after bus tours of recovery areas affected by the fire. “We’re inviting people to come and place a padlock on the rails. The symbolism in applying a padlock represents an acknowledgement of something personal that was lost or in memory of something and someone since the fire,” she said. “We will have locks there on the day, but people might like to have them inscribed and bring their own.” Anniversary events include Haven Market from 9am to 1pm, a Haven Tennis Hotshots workshop from 5pm to 7pm and a free community concert and celebration from 7pm to 10pm. Horsham Rural City Council has provided support for the event, which mayor Mark Radford said would highlight both the impact from the fire 10 years ago and the progress the community had made since the devastation. “Everyone has a story to tell about this day in our history. The people in emergency management positions, people on the ground and the surrounding support services did an amazing job,” he said. “The 10th anniversary community event will provide an opportunity to reflect on the impact of the fires as well as the changes and long-term recovery that has occurred since that time. “It will be a respectful afternoon of music, memories and afternoon tea and everyone is invited. Some in our community would rather not be reminded of this day and it is important that everyone remains respectful and mindful of that.” Horsham Golf Club will also present a Black Saturday four-ball best-ball 10-year commemorative event on February 9.

Call out for more U3A participants Horsham University of the Third Age, U3A, will start its annual program on Monday. The group, which had about 200 people sign at a registration day, has encouraged more people to make the most of the learning and interaction opportunities on offer. Group publicity officer Geoff Baker said Horsham U3A offered between 35 and 40 class-

es, including some new. “We’re still looking for more people to register. For people who haven’t registered, all they have to do is attend classes and tutors will be able to set them up,” he said. “The program is still $40 and it’s just a matter of turning up.” Horsham U3A had 320 participants last year and group leaders are keen to at least

equal the number in 2019. “We know there are plenty of people out there who are yet to experience the benefits of these classes and activities,” Mr Baker said. Horsham U3A will have an annual meeting in March. The group has farewelled Marie Foley, who has retired after spending 28 years as a tutor of a history class.

The MonitorMe program is the result of a partnership between Uniting Wimmera and Federation University. It uses details participants provide about themselves, keeping track of mood and daily lifestyle, to offer information and guidance when they experience signs of stress, anxiety or low mood. Uniting Wimmera is encouraging people participating in its services to trial the program as part of a research project in collaboration with Federation University. The project will investigate whether participants can improve their mental health and reduce stress using a digital program. If the project is successful Uniting plans to make it available to more people in the region. Uniting Wimmera acting chief executive Josh Koenig said MonitorMe could augment existing mental health services and provide interim support to people unable to access them due to distance, wait lists or anxiety. “One of the major challenges we face in supporting our community is access to funding for traditional, early intervention mental health services,” he said. “With the roll-out of the NDIS, many Wimmera people are either not getting approved for a plan or don’t have the required funding to pay for the services they need.” Federation University professor Britt Klein helped develop the program for the past two years and said digital health was a growing field. “Digital health is an important instrument in

Josh Koenig the toolkit of health care professionals and is particularly important in improving accessibility to timely health information for people living in rural areas,” she said. “This trial goes further than our previous research, in that it is investigating whether people who are already receiving support from a community service worker or organisation will benefit from participating in MonitorMe alongside that support. “MonitorMe empowers people with the information and tools they need to better manage their mental health.” More information about MonitorMe and the trial is available by visiting website uniting wimmera.org.au or calling 1800 195 114. Participants must be over the age of 18 and must sign up before Wednesday, February 28 to be part of the trial.

Wimmera centre gets to work

immera Cancer Centre in Horsham is officially operational, with doors opening to its first patients last week.

The occasion represented a profound milestone for a project people across the Wimmera, Mallee and beyond had embraced. Wimmera Health Care Group team members had been busily moving to the centre in the previous week to ensure they could start working with patients as planned by January 23. Health group acting chief executive Mark Knights said chemotherapy patients were the first to begin treatment at the new centre and the expectation was that dialysis patients would start treatment there in early February. “There was a real buzz at the new centre on the Wednesday morning,” he said. “Team members from a range of departments have been busily working to be ready to meet this planned date we had set, and they did a great job. “Professor George Kannourakis, one of our oncologists, set up his office at the new centre on Wednesday morning

and his first consult was with Audrey and John Klemm at 8.30am. “To be in the transition phase over to the new Wimmera Cancer Centre is exciting for everyone involved and we are very grateful to already be at this stage just three and a half years after starting the campaign to get this facility built.” Mr Knights said plans were to open Wimmera Cancer Centre to the public at community open days on February 16 and 17. The centre will open from 10am to 1pm. The Wimmera Cancer Centre represents one of the largest communitydriven projects in the contemporary history of Horsham and region. It attracted, and continues to attract, significant philanthropic and business backing as well as community support from a broad range of Wimmera groups, organisations and individuals. ACE Radio Broadcasters, through The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM and the Geoff and Helen Handbury Foundation, have strongly supported the multimillion-dollar project since its inception.

Anglers push for river protection M

ajor angling organisations have promised ‘an army of volunteers’ to help authorities protect Victorian waterways from circumstances that have devastated the Darling River in New South Wales.

Victorian Inland Fishing Alliance partners, Native Fish Australia Victoria and the Australian Trout Foundation have provided assurances they are ready to help. Their pledge coincides with a Wimmera Catchment Management Authority warning that the Wimmera River system was far from immune to a similar occurrence. In a joint statement, NFA president Tim Curmi and ATF president Terry George, expressed sadness in the NSW devastation, which involved environmental degradation and a massive fish kill. They said they had great sympathy for both anglers and conservationists, noting the Darling River system was a premier breeding ground for native golden perch, yellowbelly.

Messrs Curmi and George stressed that Victorians should take the utmost care to avoid a similar event in Victorian waters. They said VIFA members worked closely with Victoria’s catchment managers and volunteered thousands of hours annually on a range of projects to improve the health of Victorian streams. “In addition to ensuring sufficient river flows by restoring habitat along our great rivers, we are working to make sure that our fisheries are resilient against such terrible events,” Mr George said. Mr Curmi added the organisations also stand ready, united and side-by-side with fisheries, water and catchment managers should Victoria’s streams come under threat during dry conditions. Scientists are studying the causes of the fish kill on the Darling River near Menindee Lakes after news of the incident in January quickly spread across the country. Some estimates are that up to a million fish, many of them native species, have died in a 40-kilometre stretch of the river.

Better access at Lake Bolac pool The elderly, pregnant women and people with injuries can easily access the water at Lake Bolac Pool after staff worked with a specialist manufacturer to design new steps for the pool’s unique shape. In the 12 days after they were installed in mid-December, more than 700 people visited the pool, with the majority of

swimmers constantly using the new steps. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said lifeguard Karen McIntyre worked with Australian manufacturer Paramobility to design the steps especially for the pool, which was built in 1980. “The Peter O’Rorke Memo-

rial Lake Bolac Pool was not built with steps and previously only had two narrow steel ladders, which made access difficult for many people,” Dr Harrison said. “The steps are a welcome addition as now a whole new group of patrons can access the water more easily.”

Riders assemble for Grampians ride

reparations are in place for Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation Ararat branch’s annual Grampians Ride to Remember on Sunday.

The 173-kilometre motorcycle ride is a ‘green-corridor’ event that runs under police escort to maximise safety and minimise disruption to other road users. Organisers are expecting more than 400 riders and pillions from across Victoria and interstate to take part again this year. This year’s ride will involve an assembly, with bikes gathering in Barkly Street, east of Vincent Street intersection, and trikes assembling in the Ararat RSL car park before the ride departs Ararat at 9am.

Riders will travel on sealed roads, taking in spectacular scenery near the Grampians. They will travel to Willaura, Wickliffe and then onto Lake Bolac for an hour stop, where a kindergarten group will put on morning tea. Participants will then travel to Streatham and via Eurambeen Road merge onto the Western Highway and through to Buangor where they will regroup with a water stop. They will then travel back to Ararat via Warrak for a 12.40pm barbecue lunch in Alexandra Gardens. A sub-committee including motorcycle enthusiasts, district police officers, representatives from Ararat Rural City Council, Ararat Lions Club and community volunteers as well as

foundation Ararat branch members is organising the ride. Sub-committee chairman Dean Pinniger praised what has become a signature must-do regional event. “It is a credit to the sub-committee, including a few who have been there since the first ride back in 2008,” he said. “Last year’s 10th anniversary ride was an incredible success, with so many motorcycle enthusiasts descending on Ararat. “Many riders keep coming back every year, knowing we organise a safe and enjoyable event. Some make it a weekend stay with most of the local accommodation fully booked. “We are especially indebted to our Victoria Police – Northern Grampians

Region who are heavily involved in the organising before and on the day.” Mr Pinniger said this year police had organised three ‘solos’ from Melbourne to help with experienced volunteer marshals led by chief marshall Simon Clayfield. “This year for the first time the local State Emergency Service and Ambulance Victoria have come on board to assist,” he said. “We are so fortunate to have great major sponsors such as Shannon’s Insurance, Wimmera Motorcycle Co, Ararat RSL and ACE Radio on board, plus other supporters and volunteers who all contribute to the success of the ride.” Activities at Alexandra Gardens will follow the ride and include a free

Show ’n’ Shine as well as displays and Blue Ribbon merchandise for sale. Ararat Lions Club is handling the task of providing lunch for all the participants, police, marshals, support, volunteers and general public. On the Saturday night an ‘Arrive Together… Ride Together’ dinner will be at Ararat. The Grampians Ride to Remember 2019 will recognise Victoria Police who have lost their lives in the line of duty. Proceeds from the event will go towards medical facilities and equipment at East Grampians Health Service, based in Ararat. People seeking further details or to register can go to website www.try booking.com/YQYN.

Tree removal Ararat Rural City Council, an arborist and a district contractor have come up with a solution to remove a large fallen tree on Alexandra Lake Island in Ararat’s Alexandra Gardens. The issue was more complex than first suspected and the council is now removing several trees from the island. An arborist’s report found complicating factors such as unstable ground, access issues and safety concerns. Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said the tree’s fall had compromised the integrity of several trees on the island and the arborist’s report recommended the removal of three other trees. “The issue is a lot more complicated than we first thought because of the unstable nature of the island,” Dr Harrison said. “The removal of the trees poses a lot of technical issues – unfortunately it’s not a simple job, which is why it has taken a few weeks for council staff, the arborist and contractor to find a solution. “The ground is not stable because it’s surrounded by water, so it’s not possible to drive heavy machinery on to the island, but the contractor we have engaged has come up with a solution.” Dr Harrison said the council had contracted Shea Earth and Water to do the works, and thanked owner Jon Shea and staff for their help. Work was scheduled to start yesterday after busy Australia Day celebrations in the gardens on Saturday. Dr Harrison said the work should take about five days but reassured the community that access restrictions would be kept to a minimum. “Small areas of the gardens near the island will be closed to the public for short periods of time,” he said “The swimming pool operators and the Gardens Lake Café owner have been notified of the work and access to their facilities will not be impacted.” Dr Harrison said the council would replace the trees with a species suited to the unstable ground.

Avenue care Trees in avenues of honour across Ararat municipality will be subject to an elevated level of care based on a specialist’s recommendations on how to maintain their health and improve safety for motorists and the community. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said the report covered avenues of honour in Buangor, Elmhurst, Tatyoon, Maroona and Moyston. He said the report suggested ways to improve tree health with recommendations on branch trimming and tree removal. Dr Harrison said urgent action outlined in the report included removal of a dangerous tree in Moyston Avenue of Honour. “This tree will be removed by the council in early February and replaced with a mature pine in autumn when the weather is cooler and we have optimal planting conditions,” he said.

awards for his art, but he said an AM was unlike anything he had ever received. “Why this has happened to me, I believe, is that people have followed my working career and listened to my arguments about ‘what is art?’ and why art is important in society, as well as appreciating my work and accepting many of the social messages exposed in my imagery,” he said. “I cannot stress enough that I am humbled and very pleased that there are people out there who believe, through what I have done, I deserve this honour and took time and energy to present my case.” Mr Todd said he was excited when art took him to new places. “My current project is a collaboration with a human rights lawyer and poet from Sydney,” he said.

hroughout her life, Meg Blake’s philosophy has remained simple – get out and get involved.

The Bellellen resident has certainly lived up to that philosophy and was presented with a Medal of the Order of Australia on Saturday as a result. Mrs Blake has a history of charitable and fundraising activities at Stawell Regional Health dating back to 1975. She was a founding member of Stawell Y-Zetts, originally known as the Younger Set – a group dedicated to raising money for the hospital and nursing home. The group’s main fundraiser is the annual Stawell Shopping Spree, an event that attracts more than 200 shoppers to Stawell businesses and can raise about $4000 for the hospital in one night. Mrs Blake said her involvement at the hospital started with her mother. “My mum was in charge of the female ward there, and the matron said ‘Meg and her mates are sitting around, why don’t they get together and do a fundraiser?’ I spoke to the board and they gave me permission to call a meeting to organise a fundraising group,” she said. Two years later, in 1977, Mrs Blake became the youngest woman ever to join the hospital’s board. The charitable work continued, and the Younger Set started to grow. “We got some funding and we totally refurbished the hospital kitchen, and we just went from project to project,” Mrs Blake said. “One of the biggest donations we made was $10,000 for the establishment of the new concept nursing home on site. “Since then we’ve built another new nursing home, and development continued at a rapid rate. “We were really proud because we were first with telemedicine in the Wimmera. “We were the first with chemotherapy – we beat Horsham and Ararat.” Mrs Blake was named Victoria’s Local Hero as part of 2011 Australia Day celebrations, and remains Y-Zetts’ president.

She said it was important to recognise the work that all of the hospital’s volunteers put in. “Society has changed so much, that most ladies in their late 60s still work,” she said. “They aren’t retiring, so volunteers are hard to come by and they really need to be valued. “They ask nothing and all they get back is a warm, fuzzy feeling. It’s good for your wellbeing.” While volunteers have aged and the

The Australian wool market has continued its steady upward climb in Week 30. The national offering reduced to 41,757 bales, a reduction of 9,946 bales when compared to the previous sale, which was the largest of the season. The smaller selection attracted strong demand, helping to push prices upward. As in recent sales it was wool possessing favourable additional measurement results, in particular those with low cvh readings (less than 50), that attracted the greatest attention. As these types are in short supply, they recorded the largest increases for the series and were a major factor in many of the individual Micron Price Guides (MPGs) posting positive movements. A large selection of tender wool and wool with high cvh readings lacked strong support and these wools lost ground. The AWEX eastern market indicator added 4 cents for the sale, to close at 1,927 cents. In a solid start to the calendar year, in the first three sales of 2019, the EMI I has increased by 48, 13 and 4 cents respectively. The EMI has now risen for four consecutive weeks, since gaining 13 cents in the final sale of 2018. After performing well over the previous two weeks, a large selection of crossbreds had a week of mixed results. Wool 26 micron and finer lacked buyer support and recorded losses of 30 to 40 cents. The broader range of 30 to 32 micron attracted good demand, resulting in general price rises of 10 to 20 cents. The oddment market experienced losses this week. The prices for locks, stains and crutchings were generally reduced by 20 to 40 cents, pushing the three carding indicators down by an average of 27 cents. The quantity for the following sale will be slightly less than this week. Currently, there is 40,629 bales on offer in Sydney, Melbourne and Fremantle.

Volunteering brings satisfaction BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

or Stawell couple Ian and Margaret Taylor, volunteering is second nature.

Despite approaching their 80th birthdays, they continue to be involved in a host of community groups and projects. “It’s what we’ve always done,” Mr Taylor said. “My dad was a member of the shire council and the school council, and I think we both take our values from our parents.” As a result of the values instilled by their parents, both Mr and Mrs Taylor were awarded Medals of the Order of Australia. The pair said news of the awards overwhelmed them. “I had a mini heart-attack,” Mrs Taylor said. Mr Taylor agreed it had been a shock. “When I got the notification I had been nominated I thought, ‘I don’t think it should be me, I think it should be her’. “Then I found out she’d been nominated too.” Mr Taylor is a volunteer driver for Meals on Wheels, a projectionist at his local town hall, and a former member of the Stawell Young Farmers and Progress associations.

Ian and Margaret Taylor

He served as president and treasurer of the Stawell Lions Club, was president of the Stawell Technical School council and was captain of the Callawadda Rural Country Fire Authority. Mrs Taylor was a founding member and is the current head coach of Stawell Riding for the Disabled, volunteered at Stawell’s Eventide retire-

ment home, was a Gold Reef Ladies Probus Club member and a leader for the Marnoo Girl Guides. The Taylors are both heavily involved in the Stawell Uniting Church community. Each week Mr Taylor puts recordings of church services on DVDs and USB devices and takes them to members of the community unable

to attend church, as part of a home ministry service. He has edited the church’s newsletter since 2014 and helps maintain the church garden. Mrs Taylor is a church elder and also contributes to the newsletter and garden. She said volunteering gave her an immense sense of satisfaction.

“At Riding for the Disabled we had a little boy who never spoke,” she said. “We had a few soft animal toys and we asked him which one he would like to carry with him when he rode, thinking he would just point at the one he wanted. “Then he said ‘elephant’. “The next week he said it a little more clearly, and then the week after that we asked his mum to come walk alongside him when he rode so she could hear him speak. “We were all crying after that.” The Taylors have been married for more than 50 years, but said volunteering kept them close. “You support each other and you back each other up,” Mr Taylor said. “We’re both nearly 80, but we are lucky we can still be active in the community physically.” Mrs Taylor said the couple initially thought they were undeserving of OAM awards, but were both pleased to have made a positive impact on their community. “We thought if someone had gone to the trouble of nominating us, if we turn it down what will they think?” she said. “The nomination has been very nice, because it reminds us of what we have done throughout our lives.”

Haven champion BY DEAN LAWSON

ifelong community advocate Sue Exell of Haven was among recipients of national honours during last weekend’s Australia Day celebrations.

Mrs Exell, whose dedicated effort in volunteering and representation includes a broad cross section of regional services, joined the Order of Australia, OAM. Mrs Exell accepted the Medal of the Order of Australia for being a strong and outspoken supporter and community campaigner for Horsham district’s Haven community. Mrs Exell said it was both surprising and overwhelming to receive the award. “It certainly makes you reflect and think about what you’ve done, especially when you see the list showing community involvement,” she said. Mrs Exell said being a community volunteer was generationally ingrained in her family

and getting things done always involved groups of people. “Everyone in my family has volunteered time to community projects and groups. I suppose I’ve taken it to the next level,” she said. “For me, it’s been about growing up and staying in the community and wanting to put something back. “While many people moved away, I didn’t do that, and while Haven is already a good place, I’ve been all about making it better for generations to come.” Mrs Exell said her biggest challenge in any of her roles as a community representative was working with, and trying to help, people in the aftermath of Black Saturday fires and the events and issues that followed. “That has been huge,” she said. She co-ordinated community recovery projects and events following the fires. Mrs Exell revealed she had almost deleted an email informing her of the award.

“I initially thought it was spam and pretty much ignored it. Then my husband Gary suggested I had better have another look,” she said. “For me to do what I’ve done has been all about having a supportive family. “He has put up with a fair bit and it’s the same with the kids – I’ve always been going to meetings.” Mrs Exell was a municipal councillor between 2012 and 2016, where she represented the city on a Community Recovery committee and Victorian Bushfire Reconstruction and Recovery Authority. Her Haven community representation is extensive. She has been a part of Haven Community Enterprise Committee since its inception in 2007, including more than a decade as secretary. Much of Mrs Exell’s community engagement has involved promotion of regional sport, especially through tennis and netball.

Kealy ups ante on fire airbase

ember for Lowan Emma Kealy has again called on the State Government to provide money to complete the second stage of an emergency airbase in Hamilton.

Ms Kealy said the Country Fire AuthorityEmergency Management Victoria Airbase played a critical role in responding to fires across south-west Victoria. Ms Kealy has been lobbying the government to provide funding to complete the project for four years. “Air support has become an indispensable resource for firefighters, including playing a key role in responding quickly to small fires to stop them from growing,” she said. “The critical role the Hamilton airbase plays in south-west Victoria was never more evident than during the 2018 St Patrick’s Day fires, when more than 50 fire-bombing flights were deployed from the base in one day.

“While this was a fantastic effort, many more could have been deployed if stage two of the project was complete, allowing improved refill and refuel times. “Water-bombing aircraft were also grounded for over an hour during the fires due to power outages and the lack of a backup generator.” Ms Kealy accused Labor of failing to see the value in providing money necessary to allow the base to become ‘an efficient, modern and strategically located fire-fighting asset for south-west Victoria’. It’s extremely disappointing,” she said. “The Liberal-Nationals made a pre-election commitment to provide the $483,000 required to complete stage two. “I am calling on Labor to match this commitment, giving our emergency services the infrastructure and equipment they need and our communities the peace of mind they are entitled to and deserve.”

Call for interest in digital makeover Federal Member for Wannon Dan Tehan has urged small and family businesses in his electorate to apply for grants up to $20,000 to help with a ‘digital makeover’. Mr Tehan said applications were open for funding through a Small Business Digital Champions project. He said funding for a technology upgrade might be able to help Wannon businesses unlock their potential.

“The Small Business Digital Champions project is about helping support small businesses to learn the skills and build confidence to embrace digital opportunities,” he said. Mr Tehan said evidence showed that when small businesses were digitally engaged, they were 50 percent more likely to be growing revenue, eight times more likely to create jobs, seven times more likely to be exporting,

and 14 times more likely to be innovating new products or services. “The government wants every Australian small business to share in this success,” he said. Applications close on Monday.

Mighty Murray or mighty mess 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

riving the 100-kilometre journey from Moulamein to Deniliquin in the New South Wales Riverina is a treacherous affair.

There’s kangaroo road-kill at least every 20 metres. Even though I was travelling in broad daylight, I had to stop to make way for a mob of thirsty roos to slowly make their way across the highway and into the dusty saltbush plains, not a blade of grass in sight. Locals tell me driving at night is extremely dangerous. Most slow down to less than 50kmh. I made the road trip a few weeks ago to find out what impact the Murray Darling Basin Plan is having on the

Riverina. Farmers are feeling pretty much like a ‘roo caught in the headlights’. Each day they watch the water in the Murray and Edward rivers and the many tributaries flow on the long journey south. It’s a cruel taunt, with allocations for water for irrigation at zero percent. Only a few who have some carryover entitlement are even considering sowing a rice crop. It will be the lowest harvest in many years. Rice processor SunRice has already laid off 100 workers with more cuts likely. Of course it doesn’t stop there. The local farm machinery dealer, Taskers, isn’t replacing workers who leave and won’t be able to afford to employ apprentices.

Country Today with Libby Price

Income is down at least 30 percent, but they think they’ve got it pretty good compared with their farmer customers. As for the farmers, they’re convinced there will be zero allocation for water again next year It’s hard to imagine that just two years ago they were dealing with floods, which one farmer described as not unlike coping with bush fires. ‘It’s not just the day of the fire or floods:

it’s the years of recovery’. They’re still spraying to control Bathurst burr that arrived in the floodwaters. It’s just about all that’s growing on the Burge’s dryland pastures at ‘Prairie Home’ just out of Deniliquin. Louise and Andrew Burge share the farm duties. She’s drenching merino sheep while he’s spraying weeds. Over a cuppa, they both admit they don’t sleep well, worrying about the impact of the basin plan and what future there is for farmers and their children. They’re both convinced too much water is being used in the northern basin, and too much is going to South Australia, leaving them caught in the middle with nothing. It’s not for a lack of trying. The

Burge’s attend meeting after meeting, Royal Commission hearings, senate inquiries, indeed anything to do with the Murray Darling Basin Plan – they’re there and have written scores of submissions arguing for a redistribution of the precious water allocations. Andrew put it most succinctly when he met former Water Minister Barnaby Joyce: “I didn’t ask for this shit to be piled on my head. You politicians created it, now you fix it!” With the Federal Election only months away, that’s not going to happen. Riverina irrigators and dryland farmers are going to have to start all over again. They’re terrified their pleas will fall on deaf Labor ears.

New horizons for college Longerenong College near Dooen, north of Horsham, has welcomed its first international students. Four students – two from England, another from Scotland and the fourth from South Africa – will join a domestic cohort for orientation on Wednesday next week before starting classes on February 11. College head John Goldsmith said the arrival of the four represented a new chapter in the college history. “It represents about three years of scoping, planning and registration,” he said. “It is all about the college broadening its horizons and continuing to grow and develop. “It’s our first foray into welcoming international students. “And although it is far from a prerequisite for future student intake, the fact our first

group is from English-speaking countries will help with an integration process. “All four have visited the campus and have liked what they have seen. The hope is that they will become ambassadors for our international program.” Lillie Smith, 23, and Ethan Brown, 24, of Essex, England, despite originally having no agricultural experience, have been working in the industry in Australia for about two years. The pair hopes Longerenong College qualifications will allow them to continue to pursue agricultural careers in Australia. • Right, English students Lillie Smith and Ethan Brown are pictured with Longerenong College business development officer Donna Winfield.

ictoria’s farming peak body has called on state and federal governments to work together to complete Victorian dualcarriageway works on the Western Highway.

Victorian Farmers Grains Group president Ross Johns said it was essential the two primary tiers of government worked collaboratively to finish the job they had started, as soon as possible. “Duplication of the highway from the South Australian border to Melbourne is critical to enable Victorian farmers to efficiently get their product to market,” he said. “More and more grain is being stored on farm as farming and marketing techniques evolve, and our road network must also evolve in line with modern day requirements. “As a result of the ongoing drought, a lot of grain and hay is moved by truck across the country, but too often the timely transport of this is hampered by unnecessary and inconsistent regulation and indirect access due to an inefficient road network.” Mr Johns said a dual-carriage Western Highway was more efficient and safer for all road users and would allow for shorter travel times and less driving hours. “High-productivity vehicles including B-doubles need fit-for-purpose roads, and the Western Highway is an integral part of the Victorian road network,” he said.

Ross Johns “It connects Melbourne to Adelaide in the same way the Hume Highway connects Melbourne to Sydney.” Mr Johns said the VFF, as well as calling for a modern road network, encouraged councils to reassess B-double access on municipal roads to ensure agricultural produce from all types of farms could move as efficiently as possible. Work on a Western Highway dual-carriageway project from Melbourne to Stawell has stalled between Beaufort and Ararat.

Former student David Ugalde, who went on to pursue a lengthy research career with the Victorian Department of Primary Industries before becoming a key figure in Victorian and national research into climate change in agriculture, is helping to organise the event. Mr Ugalde, from Canberra, said he was delighted that about 36 of the original 74 students who started in 1969 would be attending. “Most of us were 17 or 18 when we started, which means everyone is in their late 60s,” he said. “Most are coming from somewhere in Victoria, but there are certainly people attending from across Australia.” Mr Ugalde said history showed that while many graduates went on to pursue careers in agriculture, others chose different paths. “You can probably divide it into thirds,” he said. “A third stayed in agriculture working with the government, on farms or in research; a third went into agricultural allied industries such as chemical supply, grain trading, evaluating or rural counselling; and the final third did something completely different. There was a wide variety.” At the time of starting studies, 1969 class members were pursuing their Diploma of Agricultural Science at an institution run through the Victorian Department of Agriculture. “The college wasn’t co-ed then and it was

quite a strict regime, but we still got up to plenty of pranks,” he said. “In any one year there were about 160 students at the college and because we didn’t have cars in those days, Longerenong became our centre of activity. “This involved everything from playing footy, cricket, basketball and just about everything else including golf at Dooen.” Mr Ugalde said students at Longerenong at the time were beneficiaries of a course that would be hard to replicate in a modern tertiary environment. He said the experience armed many with what was needed in applying specialist knowledge into a broad agricultural context. “Longerenong had a very generalist course. We learnt about soil science, plant pathology and horticulture,” he said. “But we also learnt a bit about pigs, horses, poultry, welding and driving tractors. “It was a very broad background into all facets of agriculture. It ranged from academic work to practical experiences. “Many of us were frustrated when we left Longerenong, in that we hadn’t specialised or were an expert in anything. “But what we had was a solid grounding and understanding of where we could specialise. “The weekend will be a lot of fun that’s for sure, and we’re looking forward to a really special time to remember where it all started for many of us.” Reunion activities will start at the college at 3pm on Saturday and campus head John Goldsmith will welcome guests at 4pm. A tour of the college farm and facilities will be from 4.30pm to 5.30pm before a build up to a dinner at 7.30pm. There will be a breakfast gathering from 9am to 10.30am on Sunday. Class of 1970

rom northern Tasmania to South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula and into the Wimmera-Mallee, membership of the Grains Research and Development Corporation’s new-look Southern Regional Cropping Solutions Network, RCSN, stretches far and wide.

The corporation has appointed Southern RCSN members for a two-year term, bringing together diversity in geographical representation, knowledge, skills and experience. Three experienced network heads and an overall co-ordinator will lead a total of 38 RCSN members. GRDC southern grower relations manager Courtney Ramsey said the RCSN provided a transparent process to ensure it covered priority grains industry issues. She said the process helped the GRDC develop investments, which provided knowledge, tools and technology to growers to adopt farming practices to increase profitability. “Since its establishment in 2012, the Southern RCSN has played a pivotal role in identifying and prioritising the constraints and opportunities facing growers and shaping targeted GRDC investments in research, development and extension,” Ms Ramsey said. “In recent years, the RCSN’s role has focused on analysing the important issues, reviewing existing investments and identifying ideas to improve the profitability of growers.” Providing advice to GRDC staff and the GRDC Southern Region Panel, the RCSN comprises three groups, each of which is focused on soil types, climatic conditions and farming systems within a particular production zone – low rain, medium rain and high rain – across the three states.

Network members are growers, researchers, advisers and agribusiness professionals who liaise closely with, and represent, growers and the wider grains community within their areas and respective rain zones. Panel members are connected to the network through participation as members on the Southern RCSN. Ms Ramsey thanked outgoing Southern RSCN members who had served three terms and made a significant contribution to the grains industry. She also welcomed new members. The 2019-20 panel includes Southern Regional Cropping Solutions network manager, Courtney Ramsey, GRDC grower relations manager – South, and Southern Regional Cropping Solutions co-ordinator, Jen Lillecrapp, Struan. Victorian members include, medium rain zone – lead John Stuchbery, Donald; Gavin Sait, Charlton; John Robertson, Horsham; Bruce Macague, Rochester; Denise McLellan, Horsham; Luke Milgate, Serpentine; and Simon Mock, Horsham. Panel members – John Bennett, Lawloit; Richard Murdoch, Warooka; and Andrew Russell, Rutherglen. Low rain zone – leads John Stuchbery, Donald, and Barry Mudge, Port Germein; Victorian members Alistair Murdoch, Kooloonong; and Tim McClelland, Birchip. Panel members – Peter Kuhlmann, Mudamuckla; Rohan Mott, Ninda; and Kate Wilson, Hopetoun. High rainfall zone – lead Cam Nicholson, Geelong; Victorian members Rowan Paulet, Flynns Creek; Jim Zwar, Glenthompson; Craig Drum, Tatyoon; Peter McCann, Ceres; Roger Armstrong, Horsham; Vernon Dawson, Skipton; Vicky French, Vite Vite; and Simon Gabb, Shelford. Panel members – Mike McLaughlin, Adelaide; Jon Midwood, Inverleigh; Fiona Marshall, Mulwala; and Michael Chilvers, Nile.

Agricultural leaders are encouraging landholders to attend an Ararat FarmPlan21 course starting next month. People attending the course will be the first to receive a new mapping application designed specifically for the farming community. Agriculture Victoria senior soil conservation officer Clem Sturmfels said the mapping application allowed farmers to create a plan from scratch or update an existing whole-farm plan. “A whole-farm plan is a detailed map of a property showing features such as soil types, land classes, water supply, fencing and laneways,” he said. “It can also be used to store basic information such as stocking rates, fertiliser history and land use. “A whole-farm plan is usually accompanied by written documents covering topics such as farm vision and goals, water budgeting, biosecurity, drought and fire. “The aim is to make farms more productive, efficient and sustainable while at the same time protecting natural assets

benefits over the more traditional paper-based approach,” he said. “Landholders can access updated aerial photography and topographic data, change the scale and view of their map, control what information is displayed and store a large amount of mapping and farm management information.” The Ararat FarmPlan21 course will run every Wednesday from February 13 to March 20. People keen to register can call Mr Sturmfels on 5355 0535 or 0429 018 879, or email clem.sturmfels@ecodev.vic. gov.au.

Reduce ‘red tape’

95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

G tant.

BY JEMMA PEARL

The Federal Government has promised to cut ‘unnecessary red tape’ for farmers in response to the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into the Regulation of Australian Agriculture. Agriculture Minister David Littleproud said the government wanted to reduce red tape so farm businesses could create wealth and jobs in regional communities. “The inquiry report covers what all governments can do to cut red tape and we have already saved more than $125-million across agriculture,” he said. “There are more opportunities to cut red tape in land use, water, animal welfare, agricultural and veterinary chemicals, biosecurity, transport, labour, competition and exports.” But Mr Littleproud said the government would not relax screening thresholds for foreign ownership of farmland and agribusinesses, as suggested in the report. “We’ve struck the right balance – we’re protecting the national interest and attracting foreign investment,” he said. “Many of the report’s findings are already well underway – both at Commonwealth and state level.”

etting the most out of a summer spray program is impor-

That’s the outcome of five years of Birchip Cropping Group research that has found conserving summer fallow moisture in crops is imperative. The conservation of summer fallow moisture can increase the yield and profit margin of a crop by $155 a hectare, which is validated by the 48kg a hectare increase in mineral nitrogen stored in the soil of standing stubble with appropriate weed control. Summer weeds can use two to three millimetres a day if conditions and their roots penetrate through the top 10 centimetres of soil. Given summer weed spraying can have a direct impact on yields in the following growing season, Nufarm field development officer David Keetch and his colleagues are undertaking summer spray trials. “We are testing glyphosate and 2,4-D tank mixes at three volumes – 64, 80 and 96L-ha – through two spray nozzle sizes – course and ultra-course,” Mr Keetch said. The broadacre research and development team at Nufarm is undertaking these trials across southern Queensland, Western Australia, southern New South Wales and South Australia.

INSIGHT: Workshops provide opportunities for growers to get the latest spray information. “Ideally early control around the two to four-leaf stage is best, but late control has shown to be better than nothing,” Mr Keetch said. Water-use-efficiency research found that spraying 10 days after significant rain resulted in the greatest subsequent winter crop yield, but even controlling summer weeds three weeks after rain yielded more than the nil-control treatment. The Nufarm South Australia trial is targeting potato weed at a range of timings. “The trial will target potato weed at an assortment of sizes, from seedling to

flowering, and is in wheat stubble that is 10 to 15cm high,” Mr Keetch said. “Given the effect of stubble on spray efficacy, stubble is as uniform as possible across the site. “We have a range of data which helps us confirm our recommendations, but we will continue to research effective spray management to ensure we can provide the best options for producers.” Given recent changes in 2,4-D registration it is imperative to maintain effective spray programs. There is plenty of research, development and extension currently occurring in this area.

Growers have the opportunity to learn more about optimising their spray application with Australia’s leading spray application specialist Bill Gordon at free workshops. The workshops are part of a GRDC Effective Spray Application project and will be in Irymple on March 18, Elmore, March 25, Lake Bolac, March 26, Kaniva, March 27, Warracknabeal, March 28 and Sea Lake, March 29. People must RSVP because places are limited. People seeking more information about the workshops or to RSVP can call BCG on 5492 2787. • Jemma Pearl is BCG project officer.

Uncovered Updated diesel engines, tweaked styling and advanced safety features headline Mondeo

ord has revealed an updated version of its Mondeo sedan and wagon ahead of its Australian arrival.

The biggest change in the update is the introduction of a pair of new Euro 6d-compliant EcoBlue 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engines that replace the existing TCDi mills of the same capacity. Two tunes are available – either 110kW or 140kW, while torque is unspecified but can be assumed to sit around the 350-400Nm range. Selective catalytic reduction tech helps keep nitrous oxide levels down, while CO2 emissions are pegged at

127-133 grams of CO2 a kilometre. The EcoBlue diesels are paired to a new in-house eight-speed automatic transmission that features a restyled rotary shifter, and has been calibrated to optimise gear shifting in uphill, downhill and hard cornering scenarios. Ford has also unveiled a petrol-electric hybrid powertrain for the Mondeo wagon, however, Ford Australia has confirmed the hybrid will not be making its way Down Under when the model is updated. The hybrid teams a 2.0-litre Atkinson cycle petrol engine to an electric motor and 1.4kWh lithium-ion battery

for a combined output of 138kW, mated to a power-split continuously variable transmission, CVT. Ford has already offered the hybrid motor in overseas Mondeo sedans, but now the electrified powertrain is available in the wagon body style. It is expected that in place of the hybrid, Ford Australia will continue to offer the 149kW-345Nm 2.0-litre EcoBoost turbo-petrol engine. Another addition to the updated Mondeo is the inclusion of adaptive cruise control with stop and go function, which has been enabled with the inclusion of the eight-speed auto. In addition to adaptive cruise con-

trol, the Mondeo will also feature the Intelligent Speed Limiter function, which combines the car’s speed limiter and traffic sign recognition systems to ensure the vehicle does not exceed the speed limit. Light visual updates have also been applied to the Mondeo, including restyled LED daytime running lights and foglights, new front bumper with a more pronounced lip spoiler, revised lower grille design and an enhanced upper trapezoidal grille shape. New 18 and 19-inch alloy options will also be available. At the rear, the Mondeo scores new C-shaped LED tail-lights, which are

intersected by a full-width applique finished in satin silver or chrome. Two new exterior paint hues – Blue Panther and Stealth grey – will be offered on European Mondeos. More details on the Australian Mondeo update, including pricing and specification, will be revealed closer to its launch in the second quarter. Mondeo sales slipped a considerable 35.3 percent in 2018, from 2959 units to 1914. It still finished as the third best-selling sub-$60,000 medium passenger car behind the Toyota Camry with 15,269 sales and Mazda6, 3328. – Robbie Wallis

Performance-honed Golf outed

olkswagen has officially outed its latest performancefettled Golf hatch variant, the GTI TCR, ahead of its Australian launch.

When it arrives in Down Under, the TCR – named for the TCR racing series which the Golf won twice – will be the most potent offering in the Golf line-up, thanks to its 213kW-370Nm output, only 10Nm shy of the Golf R. While the R channels its power through all four wheels, as a GTI, the TCR uses a front-drive layout mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The extra power allows for a zero to 100kmh sprint time of 5.6 seconds, while a limited-slip differential on the front axle helps effectively channel power to the wheels. Perforated brake discs aid stopping power. Top speed is set at 250kmh, however can optionally be changed to 260kmh. It will become the most powerful front-drive GTI of all time when it arrives, eclipsing the 195kW figure set by the GTI 40 Years special edition. The TCR will be visually distinguishable from the outside by 18inch Belvedere forged alloy wheels

REVEALDED: Details of Volkswagen’s Golf GTI TCR have been outed ahead of its Australian launch.

– with 18-inch Milton Keynes hoops as an option – LED headlights, black side mirror caps, sill extensions, front splitter, TCR roof spoiler, rear diffuser and door puddle lamps projecting the TCR logo. Inside, the TCR scores premium front sport seats with a microfibre fabric design, seatbelts with red edg-

ing, an exclusive steering wheel with perforated leather at the three o’clock and nine o’clock positions, and a red mark at 12 o’clock, head-up display, driver profile selection and forward collision warning. Options such as a honeycomb decal on the car’s side, various wheel choices, carbon side mirror caps and a

black roof will be available as options. For Europe, a package will be offered including 19-inch Reifnitz alloys with 235-35 rubber, the top-speed increase, a sports version of the rear damping system, and the DCC adaptive chassis control system. A second package adds different 19-inch hoops with semi-slick tyres

and additional wheel locks for greater theft protection. More details on the TCR, including its price, will be revealed closer to its release date in the fourth quarter of this year. Pricing will most likely sit between the regular Golf GTI, $45,490, and Golf R, $56,490. – Robbie Wallis

ANCAP to up pressure on car-makers

STICKER PRICE: Mercedes-AMG has added ANCAP bling to its E63 S Supercars safety car at no cost to the new-vehicle safety watchdog.

Having just undergone a major overhaul last year, the Australasian New Car Assessment Program, ANCAP, has confirmed it will further tighten its new-vehicle safety protocols in 2020. ANCAP chief executive James Goodwin said the company would build on the changes made last year. “Last year was certainly a big milestone year, as we’ve fully aligned with Euro NCAP, with a new suite of protocols,” he said. “This year will see a consolidation of those changes.” Mr Goodwin said updating the scoring system prompts car-makers to increase the standard safety in their vehicles. “Every few years we push the boundaries and make the assessment harder, yet vehicles continue to score five stars,” he said. “We move the goal posts deliber-

ately. Each time the vehicle brands say, ‘it’s too hard, it’ll cost too much, it can’t be done, people won’t buy the cars’, but now we’ve proven that is not the case – it’s a really good thing.” Mr Goodwin said there would be adjustments to better test the effectiveness of advanced driver-assist technologies. “A few years ago, having active safety was almost considered bonus points,” he said. “Now they are fundamental across the four categories of assessment. So, something like AEB, autonomous emergency braking, is actually scored in the adult occupant protection box, rather than the safety assist box. “If you don’t have some kind of AEB, it’s impossible to score five stars.” ANCAP is looking at ways to better compare the levels of advanced driver-assist systems, such as the ef-

Robot Motors OLD S$21,850

fectiveness of basic camera-based AEB and radar-based systems with pedestrian and cyclist detection. “We are now testing the effectiveness of these systems,” Mr Goodwin said. “The less expensive systems don’t perform as well as the more expensive systems. You can’t just have AEB. It also needs to work.” Kia’s new-generation Cerato recently scored a split rating, with the price-sensitive S and Sport grades scoring four stars while the higherspecification Sport+ and GT received five stars. Mr Goodwin praised Kia for offering strong safety tech at an affordable price but said the split rating serves as a warning to other brands. “When the technology is available, the excuses become less palatable,” he said. – Spencer Leech

Swift hybrid introduction looms uzuki has confirmed a Swift Hybrid hatchback is set for launch in Australia sometime next year.

The vehicle will take on the $24,040 – before on-road costs – Toyota Prius C Hybrid. Suzuki Australia general manager for automobiles Michael Pachota said the petrol-electric powertrain Swift would be priced and positioned sharply to help increase the model’s reach. “There has been a lot of talk about electric vehicles and hybrid technology, and we have very good hybrid technology available in the Swift overseas,” he said. “I have a view to introduce that within the next two years within the Australian market, but it has to be at the right price for Australian consumers. “I’m currently studying with Suzuki Motor Corporation, SMC, with regards to the introduction and pricepoint opportunity to have in Australia. “It would be our entry into the Australian market with a hybrid product, and we would love to do it in the light car segment, with a price range that – unlike some other manufacturers that ask quite a hefty premium to introduce hybrid technology – would make it very, very affordable.” Unveiled globally earlier last year,

CONFIRMED: The petrol-electric Swift Hybrid light hatch will kick off Suzuki’s electric era in Australia. the Swift is actually offered in two distinct hybrid forms – one ‘mild’ and the other ‘strong’. The former, known as ‘Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki’, or SHVS, features an integrated starter generator, in place of an alternator, with an electric motor function and 12-volt lithiumion battery to help boost efficiency to

electric motor and a rear-mounted 100-volt lithium ion battery pack, for an average of 3.1L-100km. It can also run at up to 24kmh in pure EV mode before the engine kicks in. In contrast, the ageing Prius C teams a 54kW 1.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine with a 45kW electric motor for a combined output

the 67kW-118Nm naturally aspirated 1.2-litre Dualjet four-cylinder petrol engine-CVT combo, resulting in a 3.6L-100km average on the Japanese test cycle. The same Dualjet engine in the Swift ‘strong’ hybrid, meanwhile, brings a five-speed clutchless automated transmission, dubbed AGS, a 10kW-30Nm

of 74kW-169Nm and a fuel consumption figure of 3.9L-100km. Which Swift Hybrid is slated for Australia is currently unknown, and both might be a possibility. “SMC globally is a conservative company and they like to do things very strategically as well, to make sure to strike while the iron is hot,” Mr Pachota said. “At the moment, price has a bit to do with it and we want to make sure that’s right. “The support has to be there from an aftersales perspective in regards to battery treatment and things like that, and SMC has a lot on their plate at the moment with regard to EV introductions into other countries. “This is something that is everevolving. I wouldn’t say it’s a slow process – but it’s not a quick one.” Mr Pachota believes the introduction of hybrids will only solidify consumer perceptions that Suzuki is at the forefront of inexpensive and economical motoring. “All vehicles we offer in our Suzuki range are flagships in the green category based on their fuel efficiency and carbon footprint,” he said. “We have some of the most fuelefficient vehicles in their classes, and we can satisfy every buyer’s needs.” – Byron Mathioudakis

Can we really change? Sometimes it’s hard to believe that people can change. But God is the great life changer. Here is one person, changed by an encounter with God. Born in 1725, John Newton went to sea with his father at age 11. At 18, he was captured and pressed into service with the Royal Navy. Attempting to desert, he received 8 dozen lashes. In revenge, he planned to murder the captain and commit suicide by throwing himself overboard, but refrained, recovering physically and mentally. While working on a slave ship, and not getting along with the crew, he was left in West Africa, becoming a slave himself, to a slave dealer. Abused and mistreated, he was rescued at 25 by a Sea Captain and returned home Newton became Captain of a slave trading ship. His life was totally transformed when converted to Christianity, and he worked tirelessly to see the Slave Trade abolished in 1807, just before his death. Can anyone change? We hear the answer in the well known song he wrote: “Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see. Twas grace first taught my heart to fear, so grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear, the hour I first believed! Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come: God’s grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.” Susan Pearse, Uniting Church

Sport

Graham Gerlach and Ballarat’s Ross Burrows among competitors who always put on a great show. Ben and Lennie Naismith, the Vic 2 of Daniel Wilson from GV club and the Ahearns from Hamilton are sure to keep Swan Hill’s Mick Boyle on his toes. The three-litre cars always showcase fast and close racing.

BY MARK COWIN

lue Ribbon Speedway fans are in for a great night of racing this weekend with the 100th series round of the 360 All Stars supported by three litre sedans, vintage hotrods and limited sportsman.

After a short break in their calendar for the ‘Classic’, drivers will be keen for a run to celebrate the 100th round of this popular series that never disappoints their fans with close racing and large fields everywhere they appear. With different winners in earlier rounds, the field is wide open for another driver to put their name on the top of the table when the high-powered winged monsters hit the wide open spaces of the Kalkee circuit. Previous events at the Blue Ribbon track have seen close, high-speed competition on a track that will open up various racing lines from the pole line to the cushion for the bravest of the drivers. With their unique style of qualifying heats and pole shuffles, the entertainment does not slow down all night.

Vintage hot rods

Vintage hot-rod owners will again bring their restored and treasured cars from the past for their own style of demonstration driving. There is a good field of cars lined up, representing early days of speedway racing. These cars are restored former racers and replicas of former race cars. An early super-modified, an early super-rod, a couple of side-valve Ford-powered cars, a slant six powered hot rod, even a V8 powered VW, will take on the track. As a demonstration class, the cars are driven at their potential, showing just what it was like in the earliest days of the sport.

Limited sportsman

Three litre sedans

Limited sportsman will bring their best to continue their busy season. With events as far away as Bairnsdale in eastern Victoria, the sportie drivers have had a hard go at it with

Horsham Motorsports Club will host The Down Under Modified Tractor Pull on Saturday, February 9, at the Blue Ribbon Speedway in a first for the club. This is an event not to be missed.

St Michaels set for finals Only four rounds of Central Wimmera Tennis Association pennant action remain before finals, with five teams fighting for four finals spots as play resumes at the weekend. St Michaels sits atop the ladder with eight wins, one loss and one draw this season, and has guaranteed itself a finals berth. The Saints have been clear front-runners for most of the season and have won 92 sets to their opponents’ 43. Their closest challenger is second-placed Horsham Lawn, with six wins, three losses and a draw. Lawn drew with the Saints in the last match before the Christmas-New Year break, with neither club able to field a full team. Drung South, Kalkee and Haven are fighting for the third and fourth finals spots, with Haven, in fifth position, currently on the outside looking in. Despite sitting second-last on the ladder, Haven is the only side this season to defeat St Michaels. Telangatuk East is the only team without a win and sits at the foot of the ladder. The team will play host to Haven on Saturday, while Horsham Lawn will travel to Kalkee and St Michaels is at Drung South.

Mildura training camp success A

BY DAVID BERRY

three-day training camp with dual Olympian Luke Campbell has provided the perfect foundation for a big year for Volleyball Horsham Academy members.

Campbell bought a fresh perspective to training for the Horsham members and something they had never experienced. What Campbell did from a drills perspective and his philosophies on the game would have given the members a whole new learning, especially the older players. Some of the skill drills he had the athletes doing I had never seen before, so not only the players learnt something new, so did the coaches. For the elite group of athletes, the season starts in a couple of weeks with the first Phantoms trial in Bendigo. Players such as Cleo Baker, Laelah Robertson and Tamikah Dockrill should be pushing for at least be-

SPECIALIST TRAINING: Volleyball Horsham Academy members at a three-day training camp. ing regular reserves players in season 2019. They will certainly be putting pressure on some of the older, premier women players as well. Players including Lloyd Baker and Will Saligari are also on the radar of Phantoms coaches, and should be aiming to be key contributors in whatever team they eventually make. After the first trial, the domestic sea-

son starts towards the end of February, and then the players are off to a threeday Warrnambool tournament during the Labor Day long weekend – a perfect way to ease into the state league season, which starts on March 30. For academy members not involved in state league trials, they will have country championships to aim at, with Volleyball Horsham looking to enter teams in all divisions this year,

as well as representative school volleyball. After the success of 2018, where our men’s teams won medals and our women’s division one team finished fourth, the association is keen to ensure it is represented in all divisions, which gives younger players something for which to aim. There is also in draft form a regional league proposal involving men’s and

women’s teams, as well as junior teams for boys and girls. There are plenty of opportunities ahead for all members in 2019, which is exciting for all involved. Anyone interested in playing volleyball in Horsham district for the approaching season should make contact through info@volleyballhorsham. com.au.

Geue top performer Four members of Horsham Sharks Swimming Club and five Wimmera swimmers representing other clubs competed at the 2019 Victorian Country Championships in Gippsland at the weekend. Horsham swimmer Luca Geue, competing for Ballarat Gold Swimming Club, was the Wimmera’s top performer at the championships, finishing second in the 12-year-old boys 100-metre freestyle final and first as a member of the winning 4x50-metre freestyle and medley relay teams. Geue also finished sixth in the 13-and-under boys 200-metre individual medley, fourth in the 12-year-old boys 200-metre breaststroke and second in the 12-year-old boys 100-metre backstroke. Warracknabeal’s Lily Eldridge won

a gold medal in the girls 14 and 15-year-old 100-metre breaststroke and was part of the winning Bendigo East Swimming Club 16-and-under girls 4x50-metre freestyle relay team. Horsham Sharks member Jorja Clode finished fourth in the girls 11-and-under 50-metre freestyle final. Deacon Briggs, also swimming for Ballarat Gold, finished eighth in the boys 14 and 15-year-old 100-metre breaststroke final and seventh in the men’s 200-metre breaststroke final. Other Horsham swimmers competing were Horsham’s Matt Ough, with Ballarat Swimming Club, Ballarat Gold Swimming Club’s Isabella Geue and Horsham Sharks members Montanna Connelly, Claudia Lanyon and Jack Lanyon.

Hornets at home BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham Basketball Stadium will host two semi-finals on Saturday night as Horsham Hornets and Lady Hornets strive for three consecutive Country Basketball League conference grand final appearances.

The Hornets earned their semi-final berth with a 91-52 demolition of Terang Tornadoes at the weekend. Horsham was in ominous form in front of its home crowd, holding Terang to a miserly 12 points in the first quarter while scoring 21 of its own. The Tornadoes were outclassed but kept the score respectable until the last quarter, when Horsham opened the floodgates with 37 points. It was a team effort by the Hornets, with usual leading scorers Tim Pickert and Jeremiah McKenzie restricted by foul trouble. In their stead role players such as Ben Lakin and Damien Skurrie, 14 points each, and Mitch Martin, a game-high 15, stepped up to help carry the scoring load. Matty Lloyd was another standout and forced multiple Terrang turnovers with his harrying defence. The Hornets finished the game with five players in double figures and every player scoring at least once. Horsham coach Cam Bruce labelled the performance his side’s best defensive effort of the season. “Our defence from the word go was what paved the way for the win,” he said. “Matty Lloyd helped set the tone with his intensity – he wants to get his hands on the ball. “When we create turnovers it leads to easy fast-break opportunities. “The way we’ve come together as a team since January is really encouraging.” Horsham will host Bacchus Marsh Lions in the semi-final at 8pm on Saturday. The Lions defeated Portland Coasters in their quarter-final at the weekend to book their berth. The Hornets defeated the Lions in a 101-57 drubbing in their only meeting of the season in round two, but Bruce said he expected a different contest on Saturday.

“They were missing a lot of players when we played them,” he said. “Because we only played them once at the start of the season it’s hard to tell what they’re going to be like. “I know a few of their players from having played Big V basketball, and they have a talented side. “We want to continue to play excellent defence like we did on the weekend because that has been our calling card this season.”

Lady Hornets

Horsham Lady Hornets have their own semi-final encounter with Millicent Magic at 6pm before the men’s semi-final. The teams have met twice this season, with Horsham claiming an 88-71 road win in round two before being defeated 73-67 at home in round nine. The team has not lost since its second meeting with Millicent. Coach Damien Kilpatrick said the Lady Hornets were keen to atone for the loss. “We were missing some key players, so it is hard to take anything from last time we played them,” he said. “It was disappointing, but we are a different team now.” Kilpatrick said a strong team defensive effort would be required to stifle high-scoring Magic players Emily Winter and Olivia Fuller – the south-west conference’s second and third-highest scorers respectively. Horsham has plenty of scoring power of its own, with Ema Iredell leading the conference in scoring and Faith McKenzie fourth. Kilpatrick said the team would be refreshed after a week off and ready for a challenge. “We are treating this as a grand final, because there are no second chances,” he said.

After guard Zac Dunmore connected on a three-pointer to begin the third quarter, Ararat struggled to score, surrendering nine consecutive points to let Bellarine back in the game. The teams were neck and neck to begin the last quarter, with Dunmore and Jayden Wright keeping the Redbacks within a point before another Bellarine scoring run. The Storm began to pull away, with Nathan Gronbeck providing some huge baskets, and Ararat was unable to answer effectively. Despite the Redbacks’ efforts, they lost by a final score of 86-70. Dunmore was excellent with 34 points, including six three-pointers, and forwards Wright, 16 points, and Josh Fiegert, 11, did their part, but the Redbacks could not muster enough firepower to keep pace with the Storm. Bellarine will now play Mount Gambier in the conference’s other semi-final, with the winner to take on the victor of the Horsham-Bacchus Marsh game in the grand final.

Ararat Redbacks

Ararat’s season came to a close with a quarter-final loss on Saturday night at Bellarine Sports Centre, but the Redbacks did not go down without a fight. Facing the Bellarine Storm, a team that beat them in their only meeting earlier in the season, the Redbacks defended superbly for the first half. Ararat surrendered only 11 points in the first quarter and by half-time had built a 42-36 lead.

Preusker calls for votes BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

immera people can help Horsham-bred racehorse Magic Consol compete in the world’s richest 1600-metre race in March.

The nine-year-old gelding is one of 130 horses nominated for a new event on the Australian racing calendar – the $5-million All Star Mile. The race is built around the concept of fan voting. People can vote online for the horse they want to see run in the All Star Mile. The 10 horses with the most votes automatically gain entry to the race, while judges pick four ‘wildcard’ horses to make up a field of 14. One voter will be picked alongside each horse in the field, becoming the nominal ‘owner’ of that horse for the day. The voter assigned to the winning horse will receive $250,000, with money allocated to the other voters in descending order. The race is based on the Japanese Arima Kinen – a race that pioneered the All Star concept. Horsham trainer Paul Preusker encouraged Wimmera residents to vote for Magic Consol. “It’s a pretty different concept and I think it gets more people involved

because everyone can have a vote,” he said. “There is $250,000 up for grabs for a lucky voter, so the people vote and there’s a bit of a reward for them as well. “I didn’t think the voting was going to be as tricky as this to be honest. “Some of the bigger horses have professional people marketing the horse and collecting votes, so it’s a bigger exercise than I thought. “I thought the better horses would get in, but it’s not that case at all. “It’s just what the votes are on the day. “You need people to get behind you.” Magic Consol qualified to run at last year’s Cox Plate, but Preusker and his owners decided not to send him. Despite this, Preusker said the gelding had been in a rich vein of form. In his last race – the Group 2 Dato’ Tan Chin Nam Stakes at The Valley – Magic Consol beat out highly fancied rivals such as British galloper Hartnell. “The form around him has been sensational – they’ve all gone on to group one level,” Preusker said. “He qualified to run in the Cox Plate but I think it was a wise decision that we didn’t compete – we all knew who the winner was going to be. “He didn’t have more to offer at that

HORSHAM STAR: David Cookson and Holly McKechnie with champion horse Magic Consol, who has been nominated for the All Star Mile. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER time and it was about looking after the horse. “He’s an older horse and when he’s done a good job it’s about rewarding him a bit and putting him away, then coming again. “I was planning on running him again in March anyway and the All Star Mile just happened to be perfect timing for him.” Preusker said if Magic Consol was

voted into the field, it would be a huge result for Horsham racing. “I’m rapt because it’s the first good horse to come out of Horsham,” he said. “You’d love to be the first one to win a group one race out of Horsham.” People who want to vote for Magic Consol can visit website www. allstarmile.com.au/profiles.html#/ horses/magic-consol.

Close back at Harrow Harrow-Balmoral will benefit from the AFL experience of Michael Close when he makes his return to the club in 2019. Close started his football career with the Roos as a junior before being drafted to the AFL’s Brisbane Lions in 2012. During five years with the Lions he appeared in 27 AFL games, booting 24 goals before being delisted at the end of the 2017 season. Harrow-Balmoral announced Close would return to coach the senior football side along with Nic Pekin via its Facebook page on Friday. Close will be restricted to coaching from the bench for at least the first half of the season after suffering a serious concussion while playing for North Melbourne in VFL last season. The 24-year-old was taken to hospital after suffering a heavy knock against Geelong, with scans subsequently revealing brain bleeding. Close will join brothers Anthony and Simon at Harrow-Balmoral. His signing is another win for the Roos, who claimed the 2018 premiership with a 25-point win against Kalkee in the grand final. The Roos retained Pekin as coach and brought back tough, goal-kicking midfielder Eric Guthrie, a former senior player for the team from 2015 to 2017.

Creek’s dream H

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham basketballer Mitch Creek’s NBA dream is now a reality.

The 196-centimetre forward made his NBA debut on Saturday morning local time after signing a 10-day contract with the Brooklyn Nets. He scored one point after splitting a pair of free throws in two seconds of official court time in his debut against the New York Knicks, but played 19 minutes in his second game against the Boston Celtics yesterday. Creek finished the game with six points on 2-5 shooting, grabbed five rebounds and one steal, and did not commit a turnover. Adding to the significance of the occasion was the fact Creek’s mother Bev and sister Shannon flew to Boston to watch the game in person. His first NBA field goal came with two seconds left in the first quarter, as he launched a floater over Boston defender and fellow Australian Aron Baynes. Creek was overjoyed to make his NBA debut after striving to play in the world’s top professional basketball league his entire adult life. He thanked his friends and supporters via social media after signing his contract. “It’s official – happiest day in my life,” he said. “I’ll cherish this moment for the rest of my life. “Never let anyone tell you you can’t do anything – dream big, work hard and love the process! “The work starts now. Huge love to all my fans, friends and anyone else who’s supported me!” In a video posted by the Long Island Nets – Brooklyn’s NBA G-League development team – on social media, Creek was audibly emotional when called by Long Island general manager TEAM SOSTHEIM: Seventy-eight runners set off on Horsham’s 22nd Wimmera River Parkrun on Australia Day. The Parkrun was started by a group of volunteers in August 2018 as a free, weekly five-kilometre run along the banks of the Wimmera River. Runs are at 8am every Saturday, with an average of about 110 participants each week. Organiser Andrew Sostheim, pictured right, centre, with his family, from left, Cate, Stella, Archie, Tom, Steve and Marion, encouraged anyone who wanted to be part of the run to join in. People can register for the run by visiting website www.parkrun. com.au/wimmerariverhorsham. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Trajan Langdon telling him he had been offered a contract. He told the brooklynnets.com website he nearly avoided answering the call. “It was late at night and I almost didn’t answer the call because I didn’t know what it was going to be,” he said. “Thankfully, it was a call that you dream of as a young man. For me to experience that, and the feeling of emotion afterwards, was something I’ll never forget.” Creek has played for Long Island since October in his pursuit of an NBA roster spot. He signed his contract with Long Island after taking part in Brooklyn’s summer league program on a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract. He was waived by Brooklyn after appearing in one pre-season game. Brooklyn will play three more games before Creek’s 10-day contract expires on Monday. The Nets play the Chicago Bulls today at 11.30am local time, the San Antonio Spurs on Friday at 12.30pm and the Orlando Magic at 11am on Sunday. After Creek’s contract expires, Brooklyn can sign him to another 10-day contract, sign him for the rest of the season or decline to offer him another contract. If he is not re-signed by Brooklyn any other team in the league with a free roster spot can offer him a contract. Creek’s 10-day contract is worth about $66,000 Australian. Any future 10-day contracts would pay him the same amount, while if he is signed to a team for the rest of the season he could earn about $1.2-million Australian.

‘Reddies’ biting at Fyans Fishing is still on the slow side but has been improving, with Stawell Angling Club members reeling in 20 redfin and two yellowbelly at the weekend. Club members found Lake Fyans and the Wimmera River both produced fish. Members fishing Lake Fyans had most success with lures, while yabby baits are starting to produce results. Gudgeon bait is producing smaller redfin. It was a close tussle for top points between Paul Whelan and Ray Howard, with Paul’s four

‘reddies’ measuring 129.5 centimetres taking the honours from Ray’s four redfin at 128.5 centimetres. Doug Collins also hooked four redfin measuring 119.5 centimetres and took third place. John Smith took out the longest fish award with a 47-centimetre redfin. The next club competition is another open water event at 6am on Saturday, February 9, and finishing at noon on Sunday, with final measure at the Lake Fyans clubhouse at 12.15pm. – Ray Howard

Is there any chance, Laharum? T

Laharum, despite only three wins and a draw in its 11 contests this season, is only a game and a half outside the top four on an overall ladder. But the Mountain Men’s chances of having a say in the season finale is slipping away with each round and it has only four games to make any sort of charge. They need a considerable scalp to launch an unlikely late-season challenge and might well have to start in the last of the season’s one-day round of games on Saturday. Laharum meets Horsham Saints under lights at the usually benign Horsham City Oval and faces a mighty challenge. Mountain Men efforts against pace-setting Homers last week were nothing to write home about as the team capitulated to be all out for 68. Travis Cowan down the order was the only batsman to make a serious impression and the team then watched Homers pass the target with only one wicket down. Horsham Saints on the other hand, with seven wins so far this year, were too good for West Wimmera.

The Saints used a variety of bowlers to rip through the Warriors at Nhill’s Davis Park for 90 and then made 142 in response, Gary Davidson clipping 38, Mark Crafter 34 and skipper Austin Smith 23. What might encourage Laharum’s brains trust this weekend is that the

Saints, after sealing their win, lost 8-45. The cards have to dramatically fall Laharum’s way for it to press for a semi-final spot and Rupanyup-Minyip, its nearest opponent, will try to remove any doubt. The Blue Panthers, who fell in a

highly competitive clash against Jung Tigers last week, take on Homers and, if nothing more, have the benefit of underdog status. They also take players into the game in good batting form, with Dan Clark making 61 last week, Travis Hair 58, Mark Mbofana 42 and Clinton Midg-

ley 24. All-rounder Brent Hudson also captured 3-33. Homers appear almost unbeatable with a lengthy batting list that Adam Atwood, 37 not out, led last week, having all the answers against opposition attacks. The Pigeons’ own bowling list is diverse, with Craig Britten the best of many wicket takers last outing. Jung Tigers’ win over Rupanyup-Minyip would have fuelled the Tigers’ reserves of confidence. A score of 6-244 is a solid effort in 40 overs and opener Tyler Neville’s 79 augurs well for a good season finish for the team. Josiah Mock also made 46, Angus Adams 28, and a variety of others made it into double figures. The Tigers meet West Wimmera, which despite struggling for victories, captures attention with individual performances. Jordan Gurry took 5-23 and Josh Lees 3-27 against Horsham Saints last week. The final one-day round of the season will also shore up one-day finalists. Homers and Horsham Saints will finish clear leaders to fight it out for the Cornell-Schwedes trophy on March 10.

uangor-Tatyoon collected six points against Youth Club and Pomonal finished with 10 against Halls Gap after round eight in Grampians Cricket Association’s A Grade competition.

Resuming at 1-6, Youth Club, which had already sacrificed first-innings points to Buangor-Tatyoon, batted through to declare at 8-134 with Trent Homden, Nic Baird and Gary Martin all making 30s. The declaration left Youth Club 117 runs in front and with 40 overs to dismiss its opponent for a second time, and a chance to win outright. But the Hawks batted cautiously in their second dig to finish 2-82, Shaun Allan top-scoring with an unbeaten 36, which secured the first-innings result. Pomonal, meanwhile, enjoyed outright success, responding to the Gappers’ 83 with an unconvincing 7-101 declared and then dismissing its opponents for a second time for 70. The Tigers then had an easy run chase of 52 for a second-innings victory. During action on Saturday, Halls Gap’s Arsalan Khan took 5-33 from 13 overs and Pomonal’s Lachlan Dalkin 6-23. This week, Swifts-Great Western takes on Youth Club in a two-day match at Stawell’s Central Park, which many would see as a final preview. The only time this season the clubs met was in a T20 clash, where Youth Club won by two runs in preliminary rounds on carpet before the Combine prevailed in the final on turf by 50 runs. Youth Club will be looking for a better effort from its batsmen than last round where it fell for just 51 runs. Baird and Cam Kimber have carried the Clubbers’ batting and will be the key to posting a defendable score. The Clubbers have relied on bowlers Kimber,

Clinton Slorach and Angus Barham for their wins. They are up against batsmen Sam Cocks, who had a good country week, and Travis Nicholson who is in good form along with other handy bats. Matt Heffer, Jayden McCarthy and spinner Matt Fitzgerald will carry the Combine’s bowling. In other matches, Aradale travels to Halls Gap in an effort to obtain the 10 points needed to join Buangor-Tatyoon in fourth place. Travis Horvatek, Haider Ali and the Fulton brothers will lead the attack against the Gappers’ Charlie McIntosh, who will be more comfortable on carpet. Luke Stevens and Khan will lead the Gappers’ attack as they attempt to put Tyler Cronin and the Fultons under pressure. Finally, St Andrews faces up to Pomonal at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval in what could be a danger game for the Tigers. The Saints have much to play for, being in a three-way tussle with Aradale and Buangor-Tatyoon for fourth spot. The Saints have capable all-rounders in Tom Mills, Adam Haslett and James Laidlaw, who could go a long way to winning this match. In other association news, although being competitive in three of its four games, Grampians failed to win a game at Bendigo Country Week. Grampians’ best batsman for the week was Captain Sam Cocks with 231 runs and the best bowler Lachie Oddie with 13 wickets, both of whom led the division for the week. Swifts-Great Western also lost its semi-final of the Sungold T20 to Hamilton on Sunday. Winning the toss and batting, the Combine posted 7-112 to put Hamilton under pressure but Hamilton made the runs in the 14th over. Warrnambool’s Brierly Christ Church won the competition 8-176 to Hamilton’s 53.
