Projects prime shire A

BY DEAN LAWSON

financial rubber stamp shoring up an underground physics laboratory project in Stawell has helped place the city and its surrounding district on track for a dramatic population increase.

Figures based on permanent fulltime jobs generated by projects underway in the shire suggest Stawell district population might grow by 1000 within five years. Northern Grampians Shire Council is already busy working on ways to accommodate a potential influx of workers, likely to include a broad mix of employees through Bulgana Green Power Hub as well as the underground laboratory.

It is working with neighbouring Ararat and Pyrenees councils to address a pressing regional housing shortage. Expectations are that the Bulgana hub, involving renewable-energy company Neoen and horticulture producer Nectar Farms, will generate hundreds of jobs while the lab will create about 80 ongoing positions. Northern Grampians council chief executive Michael Bailey said longterm development projects underway would have a profound impact on the municipality. “It’s going to involve a massive change in socio-economic dynamics, right across the shire,” he said. “We recognise Northern Grampians is on the move. We’re seeing different retail developments, Bulgana hub, the

physics laboratory, the reignition of Stawell Gold Mines, which is doing amazing things, and Frewstal continuing to be a world leader in meat processing and export. “And it’s not just Stawell – we have hay exporter Gilmac at St Arnaud and an expansion of events such as Marnoo Merino Field Days. “Councillors have been incredibly passionate about moving Northern Grampians forward through development and it’s paying dividends. “It shows what local government can achieve.”

Hard work

Mr Bailey said a $5-million State Government commitment to back Stawell Underground Physics Labo-

ratory represented about six years of speculation, investigation, planning and advocacy. “Just to understand what this project is about takes a lot of headspace and councillors have been able to articulate potential benefits, not only for Stawell and the shire, but internationally. It’s been a huge effort,” he said. “The reality is there could be a Nobel Prize for the science at the end of it all and to think our shire would be at the heart of this would be something special.” The science lab will be one kilometre underground at Stawell Gold Mine and provide environment and research facilities needed in the search for understanding about ‘dark matter’, one of the great mysteries in the universe.

Expectations are that the project will generate $180.2-million for the Stawell economy in its first 10 years. Most contractors for laboratory construction and fit out will come from Stawell district and western Victoria, with 15 full-time-equivalent roles created during the first phase of work. This will involve geotechnical engineers, earthmoving-equipment operators, electrical tradespeople and transport operators.

Wimmera River responds to rain T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he Wimmera River is getting a much-needed drink with water flowing naturally along its entirety for the first time in almost two years.

Catchment leaders confirmed the river started flowing from its source near Mt Cole about two weeks ago with up to and beyond 10 megalitres gradually heading towards Jeparit. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority chief executive David Brennan said the flow head was likely to have reached between Dimboola and Jeparit by today.

“Some people might have noticed a discolouring of the water and changes in the river as flow has reached builtup areas,” he said. “It’s very pleasing for the overall health of the river, considering it is coming from the upper-catchment source near Mount Cole and running right through to the lower catchment. “In some cases water is running into areas that have been relatively still for quite a while. “It is basically recharging the landscape, which benefits everything from the environment through vegetation and animal life, to providing confi-

dence and enhancing liveability for communities along the river.” Mr Brennan said the flow reflected damp conditions across much of the catchment after a long, dry autumn. “It’s taken more than two months of above-average rain in the catchment to generate a flow in the river,” he said. “Hopefully it keeps raining through winter and into spring so we can get a really good run of water. “Water is flowing through weirs after what was a record dry period. “It tells us that surrounding farmland and crops are soaked and excess

water is making its way into the river system.” Mr Brennan said while the river was subject to an environmental-flow regime, designed to provide respite for stretches of the waterway under stress, nothing compared with a natural flow. “You can’t mimic the type of beneficial conditions we have at the moment,” he said. “Environmental water is important but purely supplementary in trying to maintain river health. “Natural flows, running all the way along the river, provides another lev-

el of connectivity that environmental flows can’t deliver. “After coming off such a dry start it’s great to see. It’s great to see it’s raining and the farmland and natural environment are responding. It’s fantastic.” Mr Brennan said the authority would continue to closely monitor catchment waterways and the impact rain would have on regional lakes and wetlands. “Hopefully winter and spring rain will continue and we’ll see more or some water naturally running into some of our drier regional lakes,” he said.

Global education From page 1 “Some of the most recognised science brains in the world will be visiting or establishing themselves in our community,” Mr Bailey said. “That has to have dramatic impact in moulding the dynamics of the community and futures of our children. “What’s it all about? In laymen’s terms, we have a big hole in the ground where there is literally already an established ‘pot of gold’. “It’s been about looking beyond that and seeing another vastly different type of ‘gold’. “This is a great case of industry meeting global education, science, government and community. It absolutely ticks all the boxes when it comes to realising potential that might have otherwise gone unrealised.” The Federal Government is also funding construction of the lab, which will be 30 metres long, 10 metres wide and 10 metres high. Northern Grampians mayor Kevin

The event was a competition between the school’s 21 home groups, each creating different themed food and decorations. Organising teacher Wendy Phillips said students raised $363 for Cancer Council through gold-coin donations and extra activities, with year12 ‘Black Range’ students winning the competition with a Christmas-themed morning tea.

Erwin applauded the State Government’s commitment to the project. “It will mean the creation of local jobs and education opportunities in our shire. This is very exciting,” he said. Regional Development Minister Jaclyn Symes said the lab would place Victoria’s scientific expertise on the world map. “It will not only position us as a leader in dark-matter research, but it will also bring job opportunities and investment to the region,” she said. “It will diversify Stawell’s economy – attracting a new highly-skilled workforce to the region to live and work.” The project is a collaboration between University of Melbourne, Swinburne University of Technology, University of Adelaide, Australian National University, Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation and Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics.

Ararat committee call Ararat Regional Business Association leaders have called for late expressions of interest from people keen to join the group’s committee. They have asked Ararat business owners and-or operators to fill in and submit a nomination form before close of business, Monday. Nomination forms are available online at Ararat Rural City Council web page www.ararat.vic.gov.au/ ararat-regional-business-associationrevamp-get-involved. People seeking more information can call Phillippa Cairns on 5355 0241.

Ararat business was the subject of a successful meeting a fortnight ago, leading to a desire to reinvigorate the association. The meeting packed out Chalambar Golf Club. Ararat Rural City Council has come in strongly in support of the business group, allocating a staff member to work directly with business leaders. Ararat Regional Business Association is finalising details surrounding the reinvigoration, which will be the subject of an annual meeting in the near future.

Dimboola expo powering along BY LOTTE REITER

otential expansion of a Dimboola Human Powered Vehicle Expo will come under the spotlight on Sunday as teams from across Victoria gather for the annual event.

The six-hour expo is returning to Dimboola Recreation Reserve for the third consecutive year, starting with a parade lap at 9.55am and ending at 4pm. As the only human-powered vehicle event in western Victoria, the expo provides regional teams the chance to experience a unique and emerging engineering-based sport closer to home. Hindmarsh Shire Council tourism and economic development officer Jeff Woodward said the Dimboola event, in comparison with long-running HPV events in Maryborough, Melbourne or South Australia, was more of a demonstration than a race. He said while many teams preferred the ‘laidback’ nature, there was opportunity to bring the event up to official racing status. “We’re hoping to get representatives from the South Australia HPV Super Series to come along to see what we can offer and look at opportunities to expand,” he said. “Ideally, we want help to develop a plan to build the expo into a full racing event. “What we were striving for right from the start was to create something that made it easier for more teams and schools from the region to get involved in this sport.” Hindmarsh mayor Ron Ismay said the event had potential to build the HPV sport in western Victoria, with Dimboola Recreation Reserve a perfect location to develop an official

race event in the future. “Dimboola has been fortunate to secure the only event of this type in the west of Victoria, and this event has the potential to grow the sport and inspire more regional schools and communities to be involved,” he said. “We hope to develop this venue to be able to host official race events.” This year, eight teams and 20 human-powered vehicles will participate, with riders and support crews expected to total about 150 people. Mr Woodward said the event, which predominately attracted school teams, would also feature at least one non-school entry. “It was mainly established through schools as a way of educating students on minimal impact, engineering, fitness and human power,” he said. “There’s a lot of technology, planning, thought and design that teams go through to get these vehicles slick-lined.” Council chief executive Greg Wood said this year’s expo action would be captured by up to four camera locations at the track. He said these would be live-streamed to Wimmera Mallee Tourism Facebook page through support from State Government’s Regional Events Innovation Fund. Spectator entry will be free, with car-parking access via Park Street, Dimboola. Apart from the Park Street entrance, all vehicle entrances into the Dimboola reserve will be closed from early Sunday morning until after the event finishes. Mr Wood said preparation for the event would take place on Saturday, which meant access to the reserve would also be restricted on Saturday afternoon.

Duo gives back to charity A combined effort from Horsham West and Haven Primary School students and staff has helped raise more than $1000 for cancer charities. Year six student Aurora Terry and teacher Lauren Andrew each cut 30 centimetres from their hair at a ‘Crazy Hair Day’ at the school’s West Campus. The pair created a GoFundMe fundraising page for their haircut, ‘West for Wigs’, where they raised $825 for Variety the Children’s Charity. Student gold-coin donations

for ‘Crazy Hair Day’ contributed a further $470 for Wimmera Against Cancer in Kids. Miss Andrew said the chopped locks would be donated to Variety to be made into wigs for children who had lost their hair because of a long-term medical condition. She said both herself and Aurora had close friends and family affected by cancer. But instead of feeling ‘powerless’ to help, they started their fundraiser to assist those in need.

“This is something that felt so easy and manageable to both of us, but also something that we knew could really help those who we love and others who have been touched by this terrible disease,” Miss Andrew said. “We’re so proud of our community at West and the Horsham community as a whole who really got behind our cause and helped us to smash through our fundraising goal of $500.” – Lotte Reiter

Crewther puts up hand for Senate

awyer Chris Crewther, formerly of Horsham, might soon be back among the cut and thrust of federal politics if he can gain Liberal Party endorsement to fill a soon-to-be-vacant Senate seat. Mr Crewther, 35, has formally applied to again represent the party, by filling a Victorian Senate position created by the impending departure of Senator Mitch Fifield. Mr Crewther lives at Mt Eliza on the Mornington Peninsula with his wife Grace and two children but maintains a close relationship with the Wimmera through his family. His parents Barry and Debra and younger brother Lee live in Horsham. Mr Crewther started his foray into

federal politics when he stood as a Liberal candidate for Mallee in 2013. He was unsuccessful but joined the House of Representatives as Member for Dunkley at the subsequent election. Following electoral redistribution, which transformed Dunkley into a nominally Labor Party electorate, he lost the seat to his Labor opponent at the 2019 Federal Election. He is among seven Liberal candidates for the Senate seat, which Senator Fifield will vacate to take up an ambassador role with the United Nations. Other candidates include former upper-house member Inga Peulich, journalist and former Member for Corangamite Sarah Henderson, Greg

Mirabella, John MacIsaac, Mittie Watts and Kyle Hoppitt. Mr Crewther is strictly forbidden to discuss his pre-selection nomination with the media but in a statement on social media said he was ‘putting his hand up’ because he believed he had ‘a lot’ more to contribute ‘to making Australia an even better place’.

Keen to contribute

He posted: “At 35, I remain passionate and energetic about making a difference in the lives of individual Victorians and Australians, so that people are not disadvantaged by their postcode, their family circumstances or their background. “As a senator I believe I would also be able to contribute a lot more

in the policy-development space and advancement of Liberal principles, something I have longed to sink my teeth into more – much as I did with chairing the Modern Slavery Inquiry that led to the Modern Slavery Act. “Having grown up in the Wimmera, and currently living on the Mornington Peninsula, I would also work hard to ensure that Victorians from the country and the city are all represented and would remain a strong advocate for investment in regional connectivity infrastructure and services.” Mr Crewther posted that he had made the decision after ‘much’ contemplation with his family during the last several weeks – and after introducing baby son Edward to great-grandparents in Australia and South Korea.

Mr Crewther attended Horsham 298 Primary School, Horsham Lutheran Primary School, Murtoa Secondary College and Horsham College. He has two master’s degrees from the Australian National University in international law and diplomacy. He also has a law degree from the University of Canberra and undertook part of a Bachelor of Commerce-Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Melbourne. Before entering politics he practiced law, worked with the Department of Agriculture, was Mildura Development Corporation chief executive, was an international lawyer through the United Nations at Kosovo and ran an agriculture business.

HORSHAM would like to welcome

Glenn “Ozzie” O’Beirne to their team

Eisteddfod sets new standard Melbourne-based adjudicators of a 2019 Wimmera Music Eisteddfod were so impressed with the standard of regional talent at the weekend they have pledged a yearly donation for the event. The competition, which ran across three days at Horsham Town Hall, returned after a year’s absence with a revitalised program featuring seven new categories. Organising member Venetia Elbourne-Hobbs said a new ‘Family Groups Section’ produced performances of such high calibre that visiting judges said they would donate an indefinite annual $100 prize for the category. She said their donation was testimony to the music and performing arts talent of regional people.

“The Family Groups Section was a stand-out, it was fun and entertaining,” she said. “The children are amazing. But when they perform with their parents, their talent just goes to another level. “There was a fantastic atmosphere and that came across to the adjudicators. “They loved the venue and felt welcome here. “And these are judges who have travelled four hours to get here and have seen many eisteddfods.” Also making an impression were winners of the event’s three major awards, with Simon Dandy collecting the Alex Rathgeber Solo Champion award, Liam Robertson, ‘Most Promising Vocal Student’ and Angela Rosewarne, ‘Most Promising Piano Student’.

Mrs Elbourne-Hobbs said one of the event’s biggest highlights was the level of community support. “We had a full program and had lots of entries from the community,” she said. “Catherine Bates, a teacher at Nhill College, actually brought along 42 students to perform. “I can’t say enough about all the businesses that supported us and the volunteers involved. “Everyone did everything beautifully. “We’ve got some little ideas to make it better next time, because it didn’t completely run as smoothly as we would have liked, but that’s an eisteddfod, it is like flying by the seat of your pants sometimes – it’s something we will sort out for next year.” – Lotte Reiter

group of seven Wimmera students will be the first secondary-age competitors to test their electrotechnology training and knowledge at a WorldSkills event.

Federation University’s Wimmera Campus in Horsham is hosting its first WorldSkills competition for secondary students completing Vocational Education and Training in electrotechnology tomorrow. Seven first and second-year VETiS students from Horsham’s St Brigid’s College, Horsham College and Dimboola Secondary School will demonstrate their knowledge and practical skills for a place in a state-representative team. Convenor and FedUni Tafe teacher Iaian Fricker said the

WorldSkills competitions featured all trades, including bricklaying, cookery and welding, and offered people opportunity to progress and compete in regional, state, national and world events. He said FedUni’s Horsham campus ran a regional event in 2017 for electrotechnology apprentices, but this would be the first Horsham-based competition for students in years 10 and 11 in the Ballarat-Wimmera region. “In 2017, apprentice Corey Mann from Horsham’s Laser Electrical won the event and went on to nationals,” he said. “Laser Electrical was chuffed, Corey was chuffed, and FedUni and Horsham were chuffed too, because Horsham’s only small. “It’s a reflection of FedUni’s commitment to teaching theory

and practices that turn out successful electricians and technicians.” Mr Fricker said he was the only teacher running electrotechnology events for the region, including a competition for apprentices on September 2, and one of few likely to do so in Victoria. He said this gave competing students ‘every chance’ at progressing to national level. “Students are all on equal-footing. They’re judged on the demonstration of their knowledge and a practical skills demonstration, and that will establish a regional gold, silver and bronze winner,” he said. “The state-wide competition is paper-based, so all the gold scores go in together and the highest scoring competitors make the state team.”

Students competing in the event will also demonstrate their skills to potential future electrotechnology VET students at a ‘Try VET Day’ tomorrow. Wimmera Southern Mallee Local Learning and Employment Network’s VET Cluster is running a come-and-try day for years nine to 11 from 10am to 2pm. LLEN VET and Structured Workplace Learning Cluster coordinator Di Dent said students could attend two ‘VET Taster Sessions’ at five registered training organisations, including Federation University, Longerenong College, Skillinvest, Centre for Participation and Horsham College. The day aims to assist students’ decisions for what occupation they might want to pursue after leaving school.

Lies, damned lies and statistics W

BY DEAN LAWSON

e’re not sure whether we should give credit to former English Prime Minister Benjamin Disreali for coming up with the expression or American author Mark Twain for making it popular.

Researchers are divided and the source, especially these days, is irrelevant. But the phrase ‘lies, damned lies and statistics’ holds as true today as ever: as a reflection of how it’s possible to manipulate or ‘spin’ a message to the masses. In the media we see politicians, businesses, organisations and groups all trying to qualify or justify roles,

positions and directions or promote services and products based on what appears to be irrefutable facts. It’s probably a fair-enough tactic. In forming a position to move forward there is often a need for a starting point, foundation or trigger from where to establish a promotional position. Unfortunately, this position can be driven more by philosophical, financial or other motivating factors and raw data can sometimes be easily manipulated to veil important considerations. The challenge for the masses, as rationalising humans, is to sort the wheat from the chaff, read the fine print and understand as best as pos-

sible the big picture. We tend to be all over this tactic and often have a healthy cynicism when it comes to product and service sales. Glaring examples of this phenomenon also ooze from our seats of power. We consistently hear how figures show ‘beyond doubt’ that government policy is kicking all sorts of goals in meeting community needs.

There are always a few red-flag words to be aware of when messaging involves spruiking from either Melbourne or Canberra. A few we’re all too familiar with are ‘local’, ‘regional’ and in more specific cases, ‘Grampians’. What these words can mean, without a fear of telling lies, can always be based on context. For example, being ‘local’ depends on a point of view. It can be as fardividing as reflecting on someone who grew up in the same street to someone from the same country or even the planet. ‘Regional’ to some in the Wimmera might sound inclusive and involving our part of the world. To others, in

Grampians Community Health is hosting a free breakfast at 8am on August 9, as part of Homelessness Week, from August 4 to 10. Grampians Community Health’s Shirlei Barnes said youth homelessness continued to be one of the major issues Grampians Community Health and other social support agencies were confronted with in the community. “Grampians Community Health has confidential support services for people who are or might be facing homelessness,” she said. “Anyone wishing to access any of the services can easily do so by calling 5358 7400. People interested in attending the breakfast can call the same number to RSVP.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Negativity must stop

SIR, – I’m sick and tired of continually reading and hearing negative comments and views from basketball representative Owen Hughan and Horsham councillor John Robinson on future development of Horsham. What hope does this city have of moving with the times if we continually refer to opinions based on an obvious overt conservative belief that nothing needs to change or that we shouldn’t even talk about change. No one denies that when it comes to talking basketball, Mr Hughan is the man. But could he please let this city develop and move into the 21st century. When it comes to Cr Robinson – for three quarters of a term in council it comes across that he has thumbed his nose at council process and procedure, let alone

Wednesday, July 31, 2019

Victoria, it might mean or include large provincial cities such as Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo or even the outskirts of Melbourne. And ‘Grampians?’ We’ve commented on this before and it is just as confusing. When word about Grampians comes out of Spring Street in Melbourne there is a need to always check whether the subject involves communities living near the Grampians mountain range and national park, or the massive Grampians administrative region involving a large percentage of western Victoria. As some would say, beware the ‘smoke and mirrors’ and of course the ‘lies, damned lies and statistics’.

accept a democratic vote. To ‘stand aside’ from the council based on failing to secure votes on issues or being unhappy with council decisions is akin to the kid in the schoolyard who has taken his bat and ball and gone home. There needs to be some new levels of maturity at council level. Surely, we have learnt lessons from the Horsham Town Hall fiasco. If we as a municipality don’t have projects ready to go when funding ‘falls out of the sky’ like what happened with the town hall, what hope have we got of possibly attracting funding in the first place? What is wrong with putting a concept plan in front of the community and asking people for feedback? Nothing at all, because all plans have to start somewhere. The cart is not before the horse. Okay, some sports feel they are being given the rough end of the pineapple.

Surely as long as these sporting groups are not being disadvantaged in potential relocation then they have to consider any proposal. It’s not as if we are talking about the demise of the MCG. Why do and how can minority groups hold this city to ransom? Acknowledge history but move into the 21st century. Please look at the big picture, not what has happened or what has served us well in the past. Comments from the likes of Mr Hughan and Cr Robinson are obviously welcome – everyone must be able to put forward their points of view. But some of us are sick and tired of hearing less than progressive arguments when as a rural city we must take steps to move forward. David Berry Horsham

There are many in the upper catchment and throughout the system. Currently, the Yarriambiack Shire does not contribute to flood gauge costs as they are maintained by various State Government Authorities. Various costing models will be assessed with a meeting scheduled for 29 July to progress the matter. WARRACKNABEAL FLOOD LEVEE The plans have been finalised and tendering for the earth levee works will be done August/September 2019. B QUAD TRUCKS B Quad trucks have been accessing Vicroads Roads through Yarriambiack Shire via the Hopetoun Rainbow Road, Henty Highway and Sunraysia Highway. The trucks are utilised by Lamattinas for transportation of carrot product between Kaniva and Mildura. The Hopetoun Rainbow Road is approximately 6m in seal width and a wider pavement would be more appropriate. Utilisation of the Borung Highway to Warracknabeal is inhibited by the strength of the bridge over Yarriambiack Creek in Warracknabeal. Vicroads and the National Regulator are assessing other routes and evaluating possible solutions to understrength structures. More information will come to hand after assessments are completed in coming months. THREE YEAR OLD KINDERGARTEN Modelling of Programs for the inclusion of three year old children at Kindergarten has been carried out and at this stage, it is anticipated that Minyip, Rupanyup and Murtoa Kindergartens will be able to provide fifteen hours of Kindergarten to three year old children in shared groups with four year old children in 2020. It is projected that Warracknabeal and Hopetoun/Beulah Kindergartens will be able to provide ten hours of three year old Kindergarten in 2020; however we will not have real clarity on what can be provided in these communities until enrolments are confirmed. LOCAL LAWS - ANIMAL MANGEMENT UPDATE As of 30/06/2019; we have had 1,230 dogs registered and 429 cats registered for the 2018/19 financial year. This includes new registrations and renewals. It is an increase of 10 dogs from 2017/18 and an increase of 37 cats from 2017/18. We are compiling a list of animal owners that haven’t renewed their animal registrations despite being notified several times to do so. It is a $322 fine for failing to register an animal with Council. Only had 4 dogs Impounded this month and 1 Cats. Two of these dogs were surrendered and has one has since been rehomed. Two dogs were reclaimed and one was unregistered. The cat was reclaimed after the owner registered it. Cat Cages have been in demand especially in Minyip, Murtoa, Tempy and Warracknabeal, with a number of stray and feral cats being caught. Cat owners are reminded that they should ensure that their cats are kept secure at their owner’s properties especially at night. They should also be registered with Council.

We are supporting through FReeZA Funding the Short Film program at Murtoa Slaam “ Flicks in The Sticks” to be held in the Stick Shed A test and tag course will be held at Murtoa Slaam and the next Mini drone sessions late August.

Business continues to set the pace W

immera-Mallee business O’Connors has claimed a hat-trick of franchise wins after becoming Case IH Dealer of the Year 2019.

Representatives collected the accolade in a three-branches-or-more category at an annual awards night on Queensland’s Gold Coast. O’Connors sells Case IH’s range of tractors, combines and balers as part of a global network of dealers. The family-owned business started in Birchip in 1964 and has since expanded to become the largest dealer in the Case IH network, with branches in Birchip, Warracknabeal, Horsham

and Shepparton in Victoria; Corowa, Forbes, West Wyalong, Grenfell and Condobolin in NSW; and Bordertown in South Australia. Employing 200 staff, O’Connors has won the same award three years in a row. O’Connors’ chief executive Gareth Webb said it was an honour to receive the title and was a credit to everyone within the business. “This is definitely something we didn’t see coming, but we’re thrilled to take this award home again this year,” he said. “It’s a privilege to win this in the company of some terrific dealers.

“This is also recognition of the passion, dedication and excellence of our team and the belief of our customers who have ensured our ongoing growth. “This is the culmination of what has been a huge year for all of us at O’Connors and we’re excited for the future and what it holds.” Case IH Australia-New Zealand general manager Peter McCann praised the efforts of O’Connors. “What an amazing achievement by O’Connors, which in the past 12 months has gone from strength to strength with its expansion into the NSW Central West, making it our

biggest dealer in Australia,” he said. “This award proves though that the team hasn’t taken its eyes off the core values of the business: customer service, industry knowledge and after-sales support. “They continue to raise the bar for our whole network and strive for improved service, efficiencies and productivity. “This award is well-deserved and isn’t based on any one part of the business. “It takes into account the results in every department and proves O’Connors is not only doing it right, it is doing it well.”

O’Connors won the award category from Farmers Centre 1978 in Western Australia, Kenway and Clark in NSW and South Australian dealer Ramsey Bros. The Dealer of the Year award results are based on factors including finance and business management, performance in sales and marketing, and parts and servicing, Advanced Farming Systems Certification and total market share. • For more agricultural news, see The Weekly Advertiser’s monthly AgLife supplement inside today’s edition.

Taskforce sets new challenge Wimmera Drug Action Taskforce, WDAT, is set to host another August Winter Challenge. The taskforce has organised variations on the challenge in previous years, but said this year’s event would include several changes to keep it interesting for participants from past years. For the 31 days of August, participants will be encouraged to complete a range of activities, including one goal each participant would like to complete every day, such as exercise, reading or abstaining from caffeine or alcohol.

Wednesday, July 31, 2019

WDAT coordinator Sally Pymer said the challenge had been running every August since 2016 and aimed to be as family-friendly as possible. She said members of Victoria Police were keen to promote the challenge this year. Police Inspector Di Thomson said the challenge would encourage people to develop healthy habits. “Focusing on health can decrease chances of being involved in alcohol-related incidents with police at a later date if moderating their intake of alcohol is a priority,” she said.

“Exercising, eating healthy, caring and looking out for others, building self-esteem and looking after mental health can all be factors to reduce the chances of using alcohol or other drugs.” Mrs Pymer said the challenge would help people do some simple, healthy things and have fun at the same time. She said the WDAT aim of minimising the harms of alcohol and other drugs could be aided by people being socially connected, engaging in physical activity, and doing things they enjoy.

Concern over district roads T

he condition of ‘local’ roads and the role it plays in regional motorist safety has continued to draw criticism from Member for Lowan Emma Kealy.

Ms Kealy said she was frustrated, claiming Roads Minister and Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford was dismissive in a belief that deterioration of district roads was having an impact on driver safety. “The minister is saying road surfaces cannot be blamed for our escalating road toll and increase in motor vehicle accidents,” Ms Kealy said. “Recently Victoria Police confirmed that poor weather and ‘road conditions’ caused a motor vehicle roll-over on Blue Ribbon Road at Kalkee. “While thankfully no-one was seriously injured in this crash, it is just another example of our poorly maintained country roads putting lives at risk. “For many of our local residents our regional road network is their daily workplace. “Local truck drivers rightfully point out that the road network is their workplace. “Everyone is entitled to a safe working place and the deteriorating condition of our local roads is certainly not that.” Ms Kealy said people in her electorate ‘constantly’ contacted her about circumstances on country roads. “Some feel they are putting their

lives at risk going about their daily lives or doing a job they love,” she said. “This would not be tolerated in any other workplace and it certainly shouldn’t be tolerated in western Victoria, which the RACV named as having the worst roads in the state. “Many roads in Lowan are riddled with potholes, have crumbling and muddy shoulders or are too narrow, with locals regularly reporting damage to vehicles, agricultural machinery and many near misses. “To hear that the VicRoads maintenance fund is also being plundered to repair roadside barriers is a concern, particularly after the botched roll-out by the Labor government. “As the rollout of wire rope barriers continues it is expected that maintenance costs will rise, further diluting money for actual road works. “Lowan residents just want our roads fixed properly to give locals the roads they are entitled to and deserve.”

Meal voucher wins state recognition West Wimmera Shire Council’s community services team, responsible for developing a popular meal voucher program, is a finalist for a prestigious LGPro Customer Service Award. The award recognises an individual or team that has developed and implemented a project or program that achieved significant service improvement through an effective and innovative approach. It is open to individuals and teams across all council departments that play a role in customer service. The meal voucher program is a cus-

tomer service initiative that rethought a traditional meals-on-wheels program by giving residents vouchers to participating local businesses. Community services team leader Jo Grant said the program came about because of a significant drop in numbers for the traditional delivered meal service. “We often found that many residents felt restricted when it comes to meals on wheels,” she said. “The new meal voucher programs give the choice back to the people giving them the option when, where

and what they would like to eat. The program also promotes social interactions, which is extremely important – especially in rural towns which can often feel isolating. “We have had an amazing response, with many clients showing a range of positive health benefits because of the program, as well as local business that have benefited from more customers eating from their establishments on a more regular basis.” The winner of the award will be announced at a Customer Service Conference on August 15 in Melbourne.

Plea for continued rail support BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

rarat Rural City Council has joined a chorus of groups calling for the state and federal governments to continue to fund the stricken Murray Basin Rail Project.

The $440-million project aimed to aid grain, wine, fruit, mineral sands and other producers in Victoria’s Murray basin by improving and standardising rail infrastructure between the region and ports such as Portland, Geelong and Melbourne. The project ran aground last month after running out of money, prompting State Transport Infrastructure Minister Jacinta Allen to put it on hold. Ms Allen said the State Government would review the business case for the project before committing to any further funding. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said it was disappointing to hear work on the project had ceased. He said the project had potential to help agribusinesses and manufacturers in the region get their product to ports.

He said it would also reduce supply chain costs and boost the municipality’s economic output. Dr Harrison said with Victorian freight volumes predicted to more than double by 2050, increasing rail freight options was vital. “The cost of moving goods is a substantial component of overall production costs for many industries, accounting for up to 30 percent,” he said. “Rail is a cost-effective freight option and Victoria must get the investment right.” Dr Harrison said the Ararat to Maryborough line section of the project had been fully funded, but the section travelling through Maroona to Portland had not. “The Maroona to Portland section of the line is very important for our municipality as it connects directly to an export port,” he said. “Ararat Rural City Council is keen for this project to go ahead and we appeal to both levels of government to fully fund the project.” Dr Harrison’s call echoed that of the Rail Freight Alliance, RFA, which cre-

“The cost of moving goods is a substantial component of overall production costs for many industries, accounting for up to 30 percent”

ated a ‘Save Our Tracks’ fighting fund to ensure the project is completed. The RFA slammed the State Government’s handling of the project. RFA chairman and Mildura Rural City councillor Glenn Milne said stage two of the project remained incomplete and many of the works were substandard, with trains unable to travel at more than 40 kilometres an hour in sections. “The current situation is completely unacceptable, the project has been completely mismanaged and the works that have been completed will need to be repaired,” he said. “We are not even halfway through the Murray Basin Rail Project and minster Allan has announced the project is out of money. I am appalled; how can this possibly be the case?”

Five Wimmera-Western District teachers are among more than 400 Victorians to win recognition for their commitment and dedication to public education. They received awards at a ceremony for Department of Education and Training employees who reached 40 and 45 years of service this year. Recipients included Stephen Bruce, Apsley Primary School, Phillip Collier, Nhill College, Betty Perry, Balmoral K-12 College, all 40 years, and Michael Maloney, Warracknabeal Primary School, 45 years. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said the five recipients had dedicated their careers to public education, helping thousands of students and multiple generations of Victorians, over many decades.

College ventures into space Horsham College will shoot for the stars at its annual science extravaganza event in celebration of the 50th anniversary of NASA’s 1969 moon-landing. From 6pm to 8pm on August 14, the ‘Discovery Moon’ themed event will showcase a variety of science-based activities and student work as part of National Science Week. College science learning area head Tara Crowe said augmented-reality space experiences and ‘astronaut tests’ would be one of many activities on the night, in addition to ‘traditional’ sherbet and explosions.

Cr Milne said the RFA also had concerns the State Government was considering leasing Victoria’s standard gauge lines to the Australian Rail Track Corporation, ARTC, as part of a deal to fund more work on the project. “These lines are owned by all Victorians, and to hand these lines over to the Federal Government is a cop out and disaster for rail freight,” he said. The Victorian Farmers Federation, VFF, also called on state and federal governments to recommit to the project. VFF president David Jochinke, of Murra Warra, said the mismanagement of the project was costing farmers. “The international competitiveness of our $1.5 billion Victorian grain industry relies on the productivity and efficiency of our supply chain,” he said. “The conversion of old broad gauge rail lines to standard lines is critical to the efficient transport of grain and other products from north west Victoria to our ports. “For every year this project is delayed, Victorian farmers lose $12 million in additional freight costs.”

Developing a written plan with a clear emphasis is critical to achieving your financial objectives. Your planner can provide budgeting and debt management advice to help you start creating wealth. Protecting your future dreams with appropriate insurance is another key aspect your planner will manage. • Maintaining a diversified portfolio. Every financial planner is required by law to take a client’s risk tolerance into account as part of their personalised financial plan. Diversification is another important tool for managing risk. This means that the advice given and any investments recommended as part of that process are suited to your specific needs and risk level.

And these will change to meet your circumstances as they vary throughout life. • Being there over the long term. Going your own way is rarely the best option. Most people don’t have the background knowledge to feel confident about making investment decisions that will have a large bearing on their financial future. Keeping up with all of the legislative changes and new investment offers is also an onerous task. Your planner will be there to steer you on your path to financial independence and ensure your plan remains relevant and on track. While investment magazines and online subscription services can provide very useful information, they are often written by journalists with a general grounding in financial concepts but who are not looking at the complete picture. A financial planner is trained to take into account all legislative and strategic implications to ensure you receive the best advice possible... and this training is ongoing. Your financial plan is not a one-off, set-andforget arrangement. Just as life has its many twists and turns, your plan must be flexible and appropriate to your needs at any point in life. Working together with a qualified, experienced and licensed financial planner will help you develop a plan that is tailored to you and your life goals.

Outburst over police resources W

estern Victorian state opposition members have condemned the government’s allocation of new police officers, arguing it has largely ignored rural Victoria.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy and Member for Ripon Louise Staley said figures released by The Police Association of Victoria showed only 77 of the 900 new police allocated in the past three years had gone to regional and rural Victoria. The number represents about 8.6 percent of new allocations. Australian Bureau of Statistics data indicates about 23.6 percent of Victoria’s population lived outside of the Melbourne metropolitan area in June 2018. In addition to the 77 police allocated to regional areas a further 53 were sent to Geelong, bringing the total number of police allocated outside the Melbourne metropolitan area to 130, or about 14.4 percent of the 900 total. Ms Kealy said the numbers highlighted a bias towards Melbourne by the State Government. “Our local police go above and beyond to keep

our communities safe, but Labor’s city-centric agenda is seeing any extra police resources focused in Melbourne,” she said. “Under Labor there has been an alarming increase in crime in many of our local government areas with no increase in resourcing to meet the policing needs of our communities. “With Victoria’s rural road toll currently 80 percent higher than last year, fewer police numbers in rural areas translates to less road policing and safety when Victorians need it most. “There are no second chances when it comes to road safety and for every week the government fails to provide police with the resources they need, more lives are being placed at risk.” Ms Staley said crime statistics had risen in several Wimmera municipalities, including a 22 percent increase in reported thefts in Northern Grampians Shire and a 15 percent spike in drug offences in Ararat during the 12 months to March 2019. “Local police in Stawell and St Arnaud aren’t getting the support they deserve from the Labor Government,” she said.

Funding to help protect families A State Government campaign to protect women and children against family violence includes regional allocations. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said the government would provide $39,082 to Grampians Pyrenees Primary Care Partnership and $44,058 to Women’s Health Grampians.

Grampians Pyrenees Primary Care Partnership is providing Women in Rural Communities: Talking Gender on the Farm program. The project aims to increase awareness in farming communities of gender inequality and challenge gender roles and stereotypes through open discussion, the sharing of stories and

providing peer support and leadership training. Women’s Health Grampians will recruit, train and support women facing structural and systemic barriers to be able to speak about this discrimination and share their stories with CoRE Alliance members committed to taking action to prevent violence against women.

STUDY TRIP: Rural Northwest Health’s people and culture executive manager Kaye Knight, left, with Amazonian research student Amandia Sousa. Ms Sousa is studying rural health services in Australia as part of her PhD at Brazil’s University of Sao Paulo.

International student at health service Rural Northwest Health has welcomed a visit from an Amazonian researcher as testimony to its contributions to rural health service models. PhD student Amandia Sousa spent two days with the Warracknabeal-based service as part of her rural health studies in Australia. She has a one-year scholarship with Swinburne University and was advised to incorporate a visit to Rural Northwest Health. Rural Northwest Health people and culture executive manager Kaye Knight said Ms Sousa’s visit was ‘another feather in the cap for her health service’.

She said the recommendation for Ms Sousa to visit the service suggested it was considered influential in rural health. “That fact that it was suggested to Amandia that she include Rural Northwest Health in her study trip tells us that we are considered a contributor to the models for rural health in both Australia and internationally,” she said. “It’s something for which we should feel proud.” Ms Sousa said her two days with the health service involved ‘intense learning’ and she was thankful for the opportunity to ‘enrich’ her knowledge of rural health services.

“I had the opportunity to understand how health services function in Warracknabeal and beyond that, I could also visualise their results in the community and learn about their innovative experiences,” she said. “They were happy to share their experiences with me and made themselves available to me. “They were also interested to hear about my own experiences in the Brazilian Amazon rural sector. “I believe that these are moments that enrich our knowledge and bring us new opportunities for reflection and growth.”

Several Ararat projects taking shape C

onstruction on municipal projects in Ararat district are progressing and work on projects outlined in a 2019-2020 council budget have also started.

Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said work on Allenders Bridge on Warrak Road outside Ararat was almost complete, with finishing touches on road approaches either side of the structure completed last week.

Dr Harrison said the project would eliminate a load limit on the bridge crossing, with vehicles of all weights now able to use the new bridge. “Latest roadwork widened and repaired approaches to the bridge and guard rail is expected to be installed this week,” he said. “We are hoping to re-open Warrak Road late this week subject to the weather allowing the work to be complete.” The council has advertised tenders

for the provision of an integral bridge system for a bridge over Salt Creek on Pollands Road, Moyston, and will advertise tender to install the new bridge in coming months. Dr Harrison said Pollands Road would be closed in early August for three days to allow for testing, and expectations were that the replacement of the bridge would occur later in the year when the weather was drier. Meanwhile, construction of pedestrian islands and footpath widening

Installation of a new basketball court

near Marian College and St Andrew’s Kindergarten in Barkly Street, Ararat, is continuing. Dr Harrison said there had been a short delay due to the delivery of materials to complete the footpath work, but work was now progressing. “The contractors have moved to the middle of the road to complete the centre islands,” he said. “It was impossible to start this work until the footpath work was finished due to safety considerations.”

at Ararat Fitness Centre, which the council is project managing, is also nearing completion. The work includes varnishing and painting the floor, which is scheduled for this week. Plans are for the court to be ready for official use in the first week of August.

Car firm joins tree program Horsham Toyota chipped in to get its hands dirty at Dimboola Primary School as part of Schools Tree Day activities. The car dealer and school joined forces as part of Australia’s biggest community tree-planting and nature-care event – National Tree Day, which was officially on Sunday. National Tree Day encourages communities to help preserve the environment for future generations. Horsham Toyota marketing co-ordinator Ian Anderson said Schools Tree Day was a great way to teach children about caring for the environment and ‘creating a greener future’. “The students are given an opportunity to plant and care for the seedlings as they grow, while also beautifying the school grounds,” he said. Planet Ark organises Schools Tree Day in partnership with Toyota Australia and its dealer network, which provides on-the-ground support at tree-planting sites across Australia.

Music extravaganza Music students from across the region gathered at Stawell Entertainment Centre last week for an annual full-day music event. ‘Mega Music’ day, typically run by Horsham College, was opened for other schools to host this year, and Stawell Secondary College music teacher Amanda Hemley put up her hand. She said about 110 students from five different schools, including Stawell Secondary College, Nhill P-12 College, Ballarat High School, Phoenix P-12 Community College and Horsham College, attended. Ms Hemley said the event encouraged motivation and a ‘growth-mindset’ in young music students, many of whom experienced playing in a large-scale group performance for the first time. “Learning an instrument takes a long

Motorcyclists visit A group of 40 motorcyclists will make Wimmera and Mallee pitstops as part of a nationwide crusade for mental health and suicide prevention. Not-for-profit Black Dog Ride Australia is hosting an ‘Around Australia Ride’ to mark the 10th anniversary of the first solo ride around Australia by founder Steve Andrews. Stops in St Arnaud and Horsham on Friday will form part of the 35-day and more than 15,000-kilometre ride, which starts and ends in Busselton, Western Australia. Victorian coordinator Bernie Garvey said riders would have morning tea at St Arnaud at 10am and be in Horsham for lunch at 1pm. He said people can support Black Dog Ride Australia online at www. blackdogride.org.au.

time, it’s like learning to walk,” she said. “A lot of the students attend in their first year of learning and they’re completely overwhelmed and nervous, but by the end of the day they have glowing smiles on their faces. “It is a massive confidence boost and shows them that they are getting somewhere. Then they return to the classroom and progress faster because they have more motivation.” • Pictured clockwise from left, Horsham College music teacher Angela Facey conducts young performers at the event; Stawell Secondary College’s Bayley McKinnis plays flute; Horsham College’s Arwyn McInnes, with Nhill P-12 College’s James Ruse and Taite Beattie, form part of a percussion ensemble.

The Horsham Town Hall show is the only appearance in the Wimmera. People can buy tickets or search for more information by visiting website www.horsham townhall.com.au or calling 5382 9555.

Support for gigs

New café open for business

ommunity partners launched Horsham’s newest café amid positivity, coffee, food and smiles.

About 50 people from a variety of community agencies and organisations gathered at the café to celebrate the start of the social enterprise. ‘Laneway café without borders’, at former Thipatiy Coffee Lounge, is a partnership project between Centre for Participation, Horsham Special School and Woodbine. The enterprise is designed to help prepare students for ongoing, longterm employment while also building pathways to help them develop hospitality and small-business skills. It is geared to support a broad cross-section of people, including school leavers with special needs and migrant women. About 50 people celebrated the

launch of the café including representatives from the three partner organisations, Horsham mayor Mark Radford, Centre for Participation board members, and other supportive guests. The project is the result of a shared vision and a $186,600 State Government grant through a 2018 Pick My Project round. Centre for Participation chief executive Julie Pettett, a key figure driving the project, said the launch represented an ‘exciting’ and ‘long-awaited’ day. “The café is a ground-up community initiative aimed at both young people with special needs and migrant women wanting skills to assist in gaining employment in the hospitality sector,” she said. “We hope the café will be seen as working in co-operation, rather than competition, with other cafés and I

welcome any constructive feedback the community might have in regard to improvements or changes going forward.” Woodbine chief executive Bernie O’Connor said he was honoured to have been invited into the partnership, commenting how exciting it was that the organisation’s passion for supporting people with a disability was being further realised. He said the Horsham café would mean some Horsham clients travelling to access Woodbine services in Warracknabeal would be able to work towards gaining employment in their home town. Horsham Special School principal Matt Copping agreed, commenting that the business reflected a vibrant sense of community and citizenship in the Wimmera-Mallee. “We’re thankful for this partnership and excited for the opportunity it will

present for our students to transition after leaving school,” he said. Manager Sally Marcroft described the café as ‘a wonderful opportunity with a great team behind it’. “We were pleased to be able to employ some of the previous Thipatiy staff, along with some new faces, and look forward to continuing and hopefully growing the meal home-delivery and school-lunch services into the future,” she said. Barengi Gadjin Land Council’s Ron Marks welcomed the crowd to country and shared how enterprises such as the café could help in breaking down barriers in the community. ‘Laneway café without borders’ opened for its first week of business on Monday, with the 7am to 3pm trading hours focusing on breakfast, brunch and lunch.

Litter and dumping survey invitation People across much of western Victoria including the Wimmera can put forward their thoughts on litter and illegal dumping of rubbish. Grampians Central West Waste and Resource Recovery Group is preparing a regional litter plan for the ‘Grampians Central West’ region and is inviting people to participate in a survey. Executive officer La Vergne Lehmann said the survey would seek out people’s views, concerns and pri-

orities surrounding litter. “We have done a lot of work to identify a range of problematic areas across the region including the Western Highway, wayside stops, parks and recreation areas and bushland,” she said. “But we also know the community and community groups need to have a say in how we look to tackle the problem of litter and illegal dumping in the region.” Survey results will go towards the Regional Litter and Illegal Dumping

Dimboola Food and drinks available onsite throughout the day.

Plan that will include a range of ways to tackle the ‘top five identified priorities’ in the region. People will have until midnight August 5 to complete the online survey. Ms Lehmann said the survey took about 15 minutes to complete, was confidential and anonymous and individual responses would be subject to collation and analysis as group data. She said as an incentive, participants could provide their email ad-

dress, kept separate from survey responses, to enter a draw to win one of four $50 gift cards. The survey can be found online at www.surveymonkey.com/r/regional litterplan. The Grampians Central West region covers 12 council areas including Moorabool, Hepburn, Ballarat, Central Goldfields, Pyrenees, Ararat, Golden Plains, Northern Grampians, Horsham, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack and West Wimmera.

Ararat’s creative scene has had a $2623 boost with the State Government providing support to Ararat Live through its Small Regional Presenters program. Labor Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said Ararat Live, which promotes performances by original musical artists in Ararat Hotel’s Red Room, was one of 13 community groups across the state to received money through the latest funding round. Ararat Live will use the money to present a series of six contemporary music performances at the Red Room up until November. The performances will showcase the talents of Skyscraper Stan, Phil and Trudy Edgley, Shaun Kirk, Mandy Connell, Jimi Hocking and Joel Havea.

Retro trivia night ‘Retro’ will be the theme of a Drung Golf Club trivia night on Friday. Organisers have encouraged patrons to attend the event in retro clothing and share in a night of old video clips, prizes and games. Tickets are $15 and include a light supper. Drinks are available at bar prices and there is no ‘bring your own’. Doors open at 6pm for a barbecue and the trivia activities start at 7.30pm. Tickets are available from Leon Barents on 0427 811 529.

Royal goes mental Iconic Australian pub band ‘Mental As Anything’ will perform on Saturday at Horsham’s Royal Hotel from 9.30pm. The band, led by Greedy Smith, has supplied a ‘soundtrack to suburban Australia’ since the late ’70s. From ‘The Nips are Getting Bigger’, ‘Live It Up’ and ‘If You Leave Me Can I Come Too’, the group is taking its ‘highly listenable, idiosyncratic brand of garage pop’ to Wimmera audiences. People can book tickets online at www. trybooking.com.au.

CHAMPION: Brimpaen’s Rod Miller is pictured with his prize Merino ram at his Glenpaen Merino and Poll Merino Stud. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

‘In my wildest dreams’ BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

n unprecedented sweep of major Merino sashes at Bendigo’s Australian Sheep and Wool Show has helped cement the reputation of Glenpaen Merino and Poll Merino Stud.

The Brimpaen stud was in the enviable position of being unable to lose when a Poll Merino ewe and Merino ram were named grand champions of their respective classes, vying against each other for Supreme Champion Merino Sheep of the Show. Stud principal Rod Miller said it was the first time two sheep from the same stud had competed for the title of supreme champion. “To be in that position where you can’t lose is not a bad feeling,” he said. “I left home thinking I had a handy team, but never in my wildest dreams did I think that would happen.” Mr Miller said he was surprised when the judges gave the nod to the ram as supreme champion over the ewe. “I thought the ewe might’ve won,” he said. “I regard her as probably the best ewe

I’ve ever bred, or close to it anyway. She’s just an all-around package. “She’s a big ewe, her wool tests are fantastic, she’s deep, she’s got staple and all that, but she still looks feminine; she still looks like a ewe, which is very important. “With the ram, I was umming and ahing for a long time about whether to sell him, but I just thought it was a good time to put a good sheep up and lift our profile.” Mr Miller said he was grateful he finally decided to enter the ram. “The wool was his best feature,” he said. “For a 17.5-micron lamb he was a big sheep, he was structurally correct, and his wool just had a special sparkle about it.”

Over the line

That sparkle was enough to captivate the judges and earn Glenpaen its first ever supreme champion sash. “We’ve come close to taking out supreme a couple of times, but never quite got over the line,” Mr Miller said. “I think we’ve been at Bendigo for 20 years, and before that when the show was at Melbourne, we were there for three or four years. “I went there hoping to be competitive, and if you’re competitive and among the

top, you’re doing well, but to do what we did blew me away.” Mr Miller said he was already sorting through his ewes trying to find next year’s show sheep. He said picking show sheep was more of an art than a science. “You’re looking into a bit of a crystal ball when you’re picking them out and trying to pick out all the good attributes,” he said. “You look for structure – they’ve got to have a leg in each corner and be good on their feet. “Then their wool has got to be right, they’ve got to be able to handle being put in the shed over the summer period to be fed up. “Some ewes you put in thinking they’re going to be good and then you end up throwing them out.” Mr Miller paid credit to his family and everyone at the stud for their hard work. “Without my father starting the stud we wouldn’t be where we are, and without the sheep classes we’ve had in the past up until now we wouldn’t be where we are either,” he said. “She’s a family affair here, and everyone puts in and helps out.”

Northern Grampians Shire municipal leaders have encouraged young farmers in the shire to apply for the State Government’s 2019 Upskill and Invest – Young Farmers Scholarships. Cr Tony Driscoll said the shire was home to many young farmers. “We certainly urge all of our young farmers to apply, as it is a great opportunity to not only get some financial assistance, but upskill themselves at the same time,” he said. The government will invest $500,000 into the scholarship program during the next four years, with up to $10,000 per scholarship available to young people to help continue developing the skills they need to build successful careers in agriculture. Each recipient can receive up to $5000 to support their training and study, followed by up to a further $5000 to put their new skills into practice. To qualify, applicants need to be 35 years or younger, with at least two years of experience on farm and be working in a food and fibre farm business in Victoria at least three days a week for the past three months. Applications close at 5pm on August 9. Agriculture Minister Jaclyn Symes said young farmers needed a broad range of skills to keep up with a changing industry. “The program is part of our commitment to attract and support the next generation of farmers, and make sure we keep producing the agricultural talent our growing $14.1-billion industry needs,” she said. People can find out more or apply for the scholarship via website agriculture.vic.gov.au/agriculture/food-and-fibre-industries/ young-farmers/scholarship-program.

Vigilance call for farm safety 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

The State Government is urging Victorian farmers to be vigilant about their safety practices as part of National Farm Safety Week. The government made its call reflecting on five people who died, including two children, as a result of workplace incidents on Victorian farms in the 2018-19 financial year. Workplace Safety Minister Jill Hennessy said National Farm Safety Week reminded farmers about what they could do to prioritise safety for themselves, their family and visitors. She said farm safety was a focus for WorkSafe Victoria, with the watchdog having more than 2700 farm inspections in the last financial year.

Incidents involving tractors and other machinery were the leading cause of workplace deaths on Victorian farms in 2018-19, prompting renewed calls for farmers to carry out rigorous safety checks and risk assessments. Safe Work Australia data showed 15 people died as a result of incidents involving quad bikes nationally last financial year. Ms Hennessy said a government rebate to install rollover protection on quad bikes, or to substitute bikes for more terrain-appropriate vehicles, remained available through the Victorian Farmers Federation.

TOP TALENT: Woolclasser Kirsty Pollock and her shearer brother Josh Bone. Mr Bone has won selection in a Victorian open shearing team. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

The 24-year-old won selection in the Victorian open shearing team after a stellar performance at the Australian Sheep and Wool Show in Bendigo. Mr Bone placed second in the open final at the show, earning a place in the state team alongside winner and Australian number-two ranked shearer Jason Wingfield. He will now compete at the National Shearing Championships in Dubbo from November 28 to 30. Mr Bone said he was determined to do his best at Dubbo. “You’ve got to aim for the stars,” he said. “I’ll be aiming for the final up in Dubbo, and then if I make the final I want to finish top three and get a spot in the Australian team.” A national team berth would be a dream come true for Mr Bone, for whom shearing is a family affair. He said his father was also a shearer and encouraged him to take up the sport. “My old man got me into shearing,” he said. “He was a shearer and that’s all I ever wanted to do – be like dad. “Then I wanted to be better than dad.” When asked if, having earned a place on the state shearing team, he had now surpassed his father, Mr Bone would not be drawn.

Wednesday, July 31, 2019

“He might say I’m better than him now, but I’d never say I was better than my old man,” he said. Mr Bone said shearing had created a special bond between him and his family. In addition to his father, Mr Bone’s two brothers and sister also toil alongside him in the shearing shed. He said his partner and best friend were also part of the crew. “Shearing is a family affair for us,” he said. “It’s all a pretty close-knit family in the shed.” Mr Bone’s sister, Kirsty Pollock, competed in wool handling at the Australian Sheep and Wool Show, narrowly missing out on her own berth in the Victorian team. Mr Bone said it was ‘bad luck’ his sister would be unable to compete alongside him. He said he had learned to control his nerves while competing against Mr Wingfield, who has won 19 of the past 22 titles at Bendigo. He said the experience would prove valuable when he competed at the national championships. “I was pretty nervous going up against the number two in Australia, but you can’t let them worry you – you’ve got to worry them,” he said. Mr Bone said between now and the championships he would simply continue to work on his craft. “We’ve got shows in between, so hopefully I’ll win a few and keep my eye in,” he said. “Then every other day will just be in the shed going to work. I just keep trying hard every day.”

ou know how there are potential new members in the area? Let’s get them along.

This was the sentiment of the closing of July’s Horsham Best Wool Best Lamb, BWBL, meeting. Having been away for a couple of days, I chose to go home and see the family before they went to bed. So I arrived late to the meeting, expecting to walk straight into a planning session. I instead took a seat and listened to enthusiastic reflection and debate about a recent group trip. Time passed quickly with some good discussion and the meeting had adjourned for dinner, leaving me with the difficult decision of overindulging in another meal or not. I chose apple pie. Now, I’m involved in several farmer groups in varying capacities as an observer, committee member, sponsor and presenter. The groups that come to mind as I write this are BWBL, Perennial Pasture Systems, Grasslands SSA, Vic No-Till, Southern Farming Systems, SANTFA and BIGG. I am very grateful and feel fortunate for the opportunity to be involved with these groups, particularly the groups run from the ground up. Personally, being a member of these

SUPPORT: Farmers at this month’s Horsham Best Wool Best Lamb, BWBL, meeting. Picture: CRAIG ALTMANN groups has proven to be a place for developing friendships and getting my farming ‘fix’ at the grass-roots level in a non-transactional environment For the farmers in the groups, I understand there are significant benefits in the information, friendships, connections and resilience. We can use the BWBL group as an example. On paper, there are paddock walks, guest speakers, bus trips and conferences. That’s only what’s on paper though. Recognised, but less tangible among the

membership, is the benefit of swapping notes. In an often isolated life this must be of value – swapping notes, discussing success and opportunities to improve. Also, when times get tough, you have a group of people looking out for you. Finally, regarding Horsham BWBL, or any of the groups mentioned – if you’d like more information, I encourage you to call me on 0448 863 169. • Mr Altmann is seed sales and marketing agronomist with Australian Grain and Forage Seeds.

Wimmera awareness Wimmera growers and advisers will have the opportunity to learn the ‘ABCs’ of herbicide resistance during a series of workshops in August. Agriculture Victoria is coordinating Minyip, St Helen’s Plains and Noradjuha workshops on August 14 and 15. The sessions aim to increase awareness and adoption of land-management practices that improve and protect the condition of Wimmera soil, biodiversity and vegetation. Director of Plant Science Consulting and University of Adelaide herbicide resistance team research officer Dr Peter Boutsalis will present an update on ‘alphabet’ herbicide-resistance and tactics for growers. Dr Boutsalis said paddock surveys of southern Australia showed ‘alphabet resistant’ ryegrass was becoming more prevalent in intensively cropped areas. He said the last survey in the Wimmera-Mallee was in 2015, and the next one is planned for 2020. “The 2015 survey showed widespread resistance to a range of post-emergent herbicides in the Wimmera-Mallee,” he said. “In the Wimmera, only five percent of sampled paddocks contained annual ryegrass sus-

ceptible to all tested herbicides. However, 30 percent of surveyed Wimmera paddocks contained ryegrass with resistance to one mode of action and a further 50 percent contained ryegrass resistant to two modes of action.” Dr Boutsalis said a range of new mode-of-action herbicides would soon be available, but needed to be carefully managed to ensure their longevity. Agriculture Victoria’s Heather Drendel said growers should use a range of tools to minimise the risk of alphabet resistance developing in weeds on their property. “Testing weed seeds for herbicide resistance is the first step for growers in understanding the extent of resistance on their farm,” she said. A Minyip workshop will be at Minyup Hotel from 4pm to 5.30pm on August 14. On August 15, a workshop will be at Taylor’s Lake Hall from 9am to 10.30am, and at Noradjuha Hall from midday to 1.30pm. People can register for the workshops online at https:// abc-weed-resistance.eventbrite. com.au, or call Heather Drendel on 0427 868 705 for more information.

Big tick to no-till

omething very unusual happened recently. I went to a farm conference and most of the speakers were under the age of 40. I know! Who knew?

If you do ever attend such events, the average age is more like 60-plus, a reflection of the fact the average age of farmers in Australia is 57. The young farmers were inspirational, their enthusiasm contagious, their courage to break the rules and challenge agricultural practices admirable. It was the Vic No-Till conference with several hundred farmers in attendance. Nothing too fancy, not too many speakers, just large doses of practical information and firsthand anecdotes. They were no doubt preaching to the converted, but they were also constantly proving that it’s not just less ploughing and land preparation – it’s all about soil biology. As an avid gardener, us ‘green thumbs’ could learn a thing or too also. It’s kind of gardening on a massive scale. Always have the soil covered by other plants or mulch and you’ll not only control weeds, you’ll keep soils moist, roots won’t be exposed to temperature extremes and lots of beneficial insects will make life much easier. But there’s more! President of Vic No-Till, Pine Grove farmer Grant Simms, told the story of travelling in the United States to do the good old, ‘compare and contrast’ no-till farming and was shocked to learn of the gains being made by putting livestock back into the no-till system. He had to make a hurried call home to tell the earth movers on his farm to stop flattening all the dams and to instead clear out the ones already filled.

Country Today with Libby Price

“We found in some of our poorer soils we had problems growing the diversity of grain crops, so then when we put the multi-species pastures in, they seemed to grow well,” Grant said. “We could convert that into live weight gains and we’re finding they really are priming the pump.” The cattle not only eat the pastures, they knock it down to make mulch, cooked to perfection by their fertile cow pats, which then become home to a multitude of worms, dung beetles and other creepy crawlies that add to the soil structure. Another of the younger speakers was Tim Rethus who farms near Horsham. He studied engineering and sees technology as the next quantum gain for no-till farming. “If you’re looking for innovation, if you’re looking to improve your farm and make it more sustainable, you’re always looking for that next thing,” he said. “Now what we want to know is where we’re going to leap off. I think a large part of it is the digital side of things, such as spatial data.” As we’ve heard many times in the past fortnight, ‘one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind’.

LEARNING: Farmers discuss water reticulation at a recent workshop run by Agriculture Victoria and the Barrabool Hills Landcare group.

Water reticulation workshops Agriculture Victoria will host farm water reticulation workshops at Ararat, Tatyoon and Willaura next month to ensure farmers can reap the benefits of a new East Grampians rural pipeline. Agriculture Victoria farm water specialist Clem Sturmfels said planning an efficient and effective farm water reticulation system could be a complicated process. “It is essential to select the correct mix of pipeline components in order to minimise costs and ensure an adequate supply of water is provided to all parts of the farm,” he said. “The workshops have been

designed to assist landholders plan effective and reliable water reticulation systems. “They are primarily aimed at landholders who have expressed interest in joining the East Grampians rural pipeline, however, they are relevant to any landholder interested in upgrading their existing farm water supply.” The workshops will involve a mix of theory and practical exercises and will cover topics such as farm water planning, siting tanks and pipelines, basic hydraulics and pipe friction calculations. They will be from 9.30am to 3.30pm at Ararat on Mon-

day, August 12, Tatyoon on Wednesday, August 14, and Willaura on Friday, August 16. Mr Sturmfels listed the advantages of reticulating farm water supplies as: a significant reduction in losses of water from evaporation; improved quality of stock water; and improved paddock utilisation and productivity. Morning tea and lunch will be provided. Landholders interested in attending can call Sarah Tottenham from GWMWater on 0409 345 558 or Mr Sturmfels on 0429 018 879.

Making the most of data collection

hatever you call it – Agtech, precision agriculture, digital agriculture, agricultural internet of things – it seems to be everywhere.

But few people seem to be able explain exactly what it does or how it can be used by farmers to make better decisions and ultimately more money. Birchip Cropping Group, with support from the State Government, is running a series of one-day introductory workshops next month to help growers identify the right precision-agriculture solutions to help make their farm businesses more productive, profitable and sustainable. BCG chief executive Chris Sounness said while precision agriculture and data collected from various pieces of machinery could potentially help growers make better decisions, the industry was still in its infancy. And, like any infant, there was still a lot of trial and error required to learn the best ways to do things. “Most farmers already have the core PA technologies in place, it’s just that nobody has explained the capabilities of that equipment to them, the value of the data generated or how they or their agronomist can use that data to make a difference on farm,” he said. One-day workshops will help reduce the trial and error required to implement effective PA practices on farms.

Wednesday, July 31, 2019

A series of more advanced two-day PA clinics will be in mid-September. Adrian Roles, leading digital agronomist, Tocal College lecturer and farmer from Young in NSW, and BCG’s Cameron Taylor will deliver one-day introductory PA workshops in Birchip, August 13; St Arnaud, August 15; Hopetoun, August 20; Kaniva, August 21; Longerenong, August 22; and Ararat, August 23. Topics covered will include – • An introduction to PA – what is it and why should you care? • The benefits of PA – digging through the vendor hype to find the gold. • What do I have and what do I need? Undertaking a PA audit of your farm business. • It does what now? – how to gain more value from tech you already have. • Planting the seed – developing a PA plan that makes money for you. • Getting agro – working with your agronomist to build PA into your farming system. • Machinery, soil and other data – you’re collecting it, now find out how to use it. • The future of PA and how to prepare for it. People can visit BCG website www.bcg.org. au/events to register, or contact Phillip Guthrie, Innovation Projects and Partners leader on 0422 570 071 or email phillip.guthrie@bcg.org.au for more information. Spaces are limited so register early to avoid disappointment.

Agriculture Victoria grain technology coordinator Mark Gould was appointed to support farmers in Victoria’s On-Farm Internet of Things Trial as it prepares to start in Birchip, Tatura, Serpentine and Maffra areas. Mr Gould said the trial would support grain growers to test the technology and it was his job to ensure farmers taking part in the trial had a close point of contact to help them select technologies best matched to their businesses’ needs. “The trial will allow us to work together to investigate how well Internet of Things technology works in the practical day-to-day running of a farm business,” he said. “To ensure a lack of access to a reliable network coverage isn’t a barrier to farmers participating in the trial, the Victorian Government is also funding the delivery of Internet of Things network connectivity to each trial region. “We’re now calling for up to 25 broadacre cropping farmers in the Buloke government area to express their interest to take part in the trial and access up to $30,000 to invest in the technology.” Mr Gould spent 15 years as an advisory systems engineer with Melbourne’s Dell Technologies before joining Agriculture Victoria’s team. “I moved to the Wimmera about 18 months ago,” he said. “Agriculture is the core industry in this part of Victoria, so I developed an interest in bringing my many years of technology experience to

NEW START: Agriculture Victoria grain technology coordinator Mark Gould will support farmers taking part in Victoria’s OnFarm Internet of Things Trial. farmers to enable them to be more efficient and profitable. “I can’t wait to see the smile on farmers’ faces when they see what they always thought was true is now backed up by data, and they can spend a lot less time touring the farm to make informed decisions.” Farmers interested in taking part in Victoria’s On-Farm Internet of Things Trial can submit an expression of interest at agriculture.vic.gov.au/ digitalag until August 2.

eed management moves to a whole new level when you add the word ‘integrated’.

This is the driving force behind a WeedSmart Big 6 approach, which suggests that growers implement as many of these six key tactics as possible into their crop-management programs. Farming in the Wimmera, the Rethus and Ruwoldt families have been working hard to build an integrated weed-management system that suits their farms. In doing so they are ticking off many of the ‘Big 6’ tactics each season. These tactics are summarised as: 1. Crop and pasture rotation; 2. Double knock to protect glyphosate; 3. Mix and rotate herbicide groups; 4. Stop weed seed set; 5. Crop competition; 6. Harvest weed seed control. In 2018 Tim Rethus and Ian Ruwoldt attended WeedSmart Week in Narrabri and this year they are backing WeedSmart Week in their own backyard. This practical event in Horsham from August 27 to 29 also has the backing of the Birchip Cropping Group. Tim and his brother Luke farm with their father Geoff and long-time worker Glenn in the central and southern Wimmera, where they are contending with Wimmera annual ryegrass, brome, wild oats, vetch, bifora, sow thistle and prickly lettuce.

WEEDSMART: Tim Rethus has encouraged other Wimmera and Mallee growers to attend the first Victorian WeedSmart Week, which will be in Horsham across three days from August 27. “Our approach to weed control centres on keeping weed germination levels low and using diverse farming practices,” Tim said. “Dad was an early adopter of minimum tillage back in the early 1980s and we have progressively moved to farming systems that involve less disturbance. One of the major benefits is that we are leaving the weed seeds on the soil surface where they are exposed to the weather and don’t have the soil contact they need, and this really reduces weed-seed germination.” A key element to the Rethus’ success is their determination to achieve near-zero disturbance at planting.

When they adopted a 40-foot CTF system in 2008 their min-till single-disc seeder did a good job and reduced soil throw. Ten years on, the soil in the cropping beds has responded to the removal of machinery traffic, and the single discs were often stalling in the softer soil and the depth control was no longer adequate. This led the Rethus’ to invest in a zero-till precision planter to provide more precision at planting, including inter-row sowing for lentils, and to make best use of the newest chemistry available. “This precision seeder was a good

unit but it was complex and didn’t suit all our crops,” Tim said. “So, we decided to combine the precision row units with twin-disc openers on a new 80-foot NDF frame but use an air-seeder to deliver the seed.” To further reduce soil throw, residue managers are not used. Instead ‘PTT Sabre-tooth’ discs are used to cut through the residue and reduce pinning. “Adding side-shifting rams to the toolbar means we can also inter-row sow our lentils and we have a seeder that meets all our requirements, especially in terms of maintaining low weed-seed germination at seeding while still sowing at 15-inch row spacing,” Tim said. The Rethus family practices a diverse crop rotation of wheat, barley, durum, canola, lentils, beans and oats, and use shielded spraying, hay production, brown manuring, spray topping and diverse herbicide strategies to minimise weed-seed set. Tim said the reality of herbicide resistance meant non-chemical tools were important to maintain low weed numbers and this was one of the driving forces behind their efforts to fully integrate hay production into their CTF system.

Kewell

Farming at Kewell, Ian Ruwoldt and his brother Greg also have several strategies in place to manage rye-

grass, bedstraw, marshmallow, vetch and bifora. Ian found the WeedSmart event to be comprehensive and a good opportunity to think through tactics that could help solve their weed problems. “We currently use oaten hay, chemical rotation, imidazolinone chemistry with canola and a chaff deck on the harvester to keep weed numbers low,” he said. “Thinking about the WeedSmart Big 6 helps to formulate a plan to manage weeds through the year and through the rotation. “The forum covers a lot of topics and the discussions are practical and relevant to the region, so this year’s event will focus on the weed issues facing Wimmera and Mallee farmers.” Attendees will have several opportunities to see and discuss cutting-edge technologies such as optical sprayers, robots and emerging ‘green-on-green’ spray sensors. They will also find out how other growers in the region are implementing the Big 6. Growers, agronomists and researchers speaking and participating in expert panels at the forum will spark important discussions about herbicide resistance and how the Big 6 tactics can target weed species and farming systems in the southern cropping region. People can register for the threeday event at weedsmart.org.au/ weedsmart-week-horsham/.

Specialising in demolition and asbestos removal HED Industries holds both Victorian and NSW demolition and A-Class Asbestos removal licences. HED also has a fleet of hire equipment in Perth, Adelaide and Portland. HED predominantly services the Wimmera, Mallee and surrounding districts and also travels Victoria-wide and interstate. “From the beginning 14 years ago our main business was demolition and general earthworks,” Luke said. “We then branched out into asbestos removal and gained our A-class licence. We have broadened our horizons and now specialise in soil remediation and have mobile crushing and screening plants.” “At HED Industries we are constantly looking to grow by branching out into other areas which complement our business.” “We are passionate about what we do and we pride ourselves on providing superior customer service to each and every client.” After years in the demolition industry Luke has witnessed the impact that demolition waste is having on the environment. This inspired him to create a facility to recycle demolition waste that would otherwise end up in landfill. Luke has an EPA approved facility to recycle timber, bricks, concrete and iron. HED Industries crushes the concrete and bricks taken from demolition sites and recycles it to use for shed pads, hardstand for yards and driveways.

Showroom ready Appetite for SUVs to spur Alpina sales

lpina Automobiles Australia believes its new XD3 midsize SUV, expected to arrive in showrooms in the coming weeks, will help lift the brand’s sales to new heights due to the country’s appetite for high-riding wagons.

The XD3, based on the third-generation G01-series BMW X3, is the first SUV from the niche German tuner to arrive on Australian shores since it launched locally in November 2016. Alpina Automobiles chief executive Andreas Bovensiepen said the XD3 will prove to be the brand’s most popular model Down Under. “In Australia, I think the best-selling model will of course be the XD3,

which we are right now starting, because your country is an SUV country,” he said. “We started with the B4S, and I think the B4S was the most sold so far, but now with the XD3, I think this will all change.” When asked about volume aspirations for the brand, Mr Bovensiepen said it was too early to say what the niche manufacturer could achieve with the XD3 about to hit the market. Alpina Automobiles Australia sales manager Phil Jeffrey said the XD3 would not make a major impact on sales volume in the overall market, although it had already made an impact compared to its stablemates. “It’s always going to be a low-

volume number for Australia based on the restrictions and limited availability, but again I’ll just point back to that every dealer in Australia has sold Alpina product, and every dealer is actively involved in looking forward to continuing to sell Alpina product,” he said. “Three out of five of all Alpina dealers have taken forward orders on XD3 – we haven’t done that before, so that says to me there’s generally a much different take rate from our market on this car than before. “Now where that number takes us, let’s have a really good crack at that and see where we end up. But right now, we certainly know that’s going to be the biggest one for us.”

The XD3 will compete with the likes of the Mercedes-AMG GLC43, BMW X3 M40i and Audi SQ5 with the differentiating factor of being offered with a turbo-diesel engine. Priced at $109,900 plus on-roads, the XD3 is priced $10,000 above the Audi and BMW, but undercuts the AMG slightly, which checks in at $111,250. While all of its competitors employ petrol engines, the XD3 makes use of a 3.0-litre twin-turbo inline six-cylinder engine producing 245kW-700Nm, with Alpina citing increased driving range as an advantage over the rest of the hot German SUVs. Mr Jeffrey said the anticipated success of the XD3 should help raise the

profile of the rest of the models in Alpina’s range and could provide a flow-on effect for sales. “I have no doubt the more successful the SUV is, the more successful the other sedans and Tourings will become as well,” he said. “Because they’ll all become a recognised product and it will become something that people want to learn more about. “Whereas now we’re still growing, we’re still getting the name out there, we’re still getting the Australian market aware of what Alpina is all about, the XD3 will help with that as well.” – Robbie Wallis

Ford helps identify future jobs

n contrast to seemingly endless lists of jobs that will soon no longer exist due to rapid technological, societal and economic shifts, a collaboration between Deakin and Griffith universities and Ford Australia has identified 100 new occupations that could emerge in the coming decade.

The report, titled ‘100 Jobs of the Future’, describes roles addressing a number of upcoming challenges including an ageing population, climate change, and ensuring artificial intelligence does not get out of control. Fields that are now gaining traction – such as robotics, space tourism, 3D printing, blockchain, big data, drones and the sharing economy – will be a key source of these new lines of work, as will advances in agriculture, biotech and waste management. In addition to the report is an online quiz designed to help people understand how their personality and skill set fits into the report’s envisaged future work landscape, by narrowing down and presenting suitable occupations. Ford Asia Pacific design director Max Wolff said there was an exciting future ahead for those who wanted to challenge existing systems and reshape the way we will all move around. However, just four of the 100 job de-

scription summaries across 11 defined categories include the word ‘vehicle’. According to the report, an ‘automated transit system troubleshooter’ will address potential problems that occur in a transit system almost entirely comprised of autonomous selfdriving vehicles. Meanwhile an ‘autonomous vehicle profile designer’ is responsible for customising self-driving vehicles to suit the individual needs and tastes of the vehicle owner. Backing up these two roles will be ‘robot mechanics’ with the skills to maintain robots and autonomous ve-

hicles to keep them running smoothly. Finally, agriculture is already beginning to adopt autonomous vehicles, so ‘farm safety advisors’ will in future be ensuring that autonomous vehicles and agricultural robots have the latest safety software installed, and that bodies of water such as dams are fenced off electronically. With about 1600 of its 2000 employees in Australia engaged in roles related to engineering and design, Ford supported this research project as part of a broader effort to boost education in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths, STEAM.

The company put up one of its driver assistance technologies engineers, Louise Nance, as an example as her current role did not exist when she joined Ford as a graduate in 2015. “I hope this report will inspire and support youth to find fulfilling, rewarding careers, and ensure a pipeline of talent for Aussie innovation,” Ms Nance said. Many of the listed future jobs are in the field of artificial intelligence, which along with robotics is feared as one of the biggest job-killing technologies. But Deakin University professor and

Robot Motors

chair of science education Russell Tytler said to keep pace as the economy changes, humans would ‘need to work with machines in new ways, rather than compete with them for jobs’. Cross-disciplinary abilities, collaboration and problem solving were identified as important in many of the 100 future jobs, along with creative and social intelligence, manual dexterity, an entrepreneurial mindset and interpersonal skills. Griffith University professor and deputy director of teaching and curriculum transformation Ruth Bridgstock said the research project predicted a more complex and changing world of work, but one where young people would be able to find or create exciting work opportunities that made the most of their interests and skills. Deakin University science, technology and environmental education lecturer Peta White added the project’s aim was to help parents, educators and industry professionals support the next generation in their future career ambitions. “With a boom in emerging industries and new technologies such as robotics, biotechnology and artificial intelligence, many of the jobs today’s younger generation will do don’t even exist yet,” she said. – Haitham Razagui

Volkswagen confirms new range olkswagen Group Australia has locked in its full-time Touareg range, confirming that the third-generation large SUV will be available in two grades from early October or late November this year.

Launched last month in limited Launch Edition form, the new Touareg will become $10,000 more affordable when the permanent line-up arrives, with the entry-level 190TDI to kick off proceedings from $79,490 plus on-road costs, while the flagship 190TDI Premium will add more standard equipment for $5000. As both grades’ names suggest, they will be motivated by the same 3.0-litre turbo-diesel V6 engine as the Launch Edition. It produces 190kW of power from 3250 to 4250rpm and 600Nm of torque from 2250 to 3250rpm. Drive is sent to all four wheels via Volkswagen’s variable 4Motion system, which uses a mechanical Torsen centre differential in this application. It is mated to an eight-speed torqueconverter automatic transmission. As reported, VGA was hoping to instead introduce two different bent sixes, but the company’s product marketing manager Jeff Shafer told GoAuto last week in Queenstown, New Zealand, that the 170kW-500Nm 170TDI and 210kW-600Nm 210TDI variants had been held up for at least

FULLTIME: Volkswagen confirms its full-time Touareg range, including two grades and three option packages.

12 months due to ongoing – and welldocumented – homologation issues related to Europe’s WLTP testing standard introduced in September last year. Standard equipment in the 190TDI includes 19-inch Osorno alloy wheels, a hands-free power-operated tailgate, keyless entry and start, a 9.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system, satellite navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, four USB ports, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control and Vienna leather upholstery.

Just like the Launch Edition, the 190TDI and 190TDI Premium can be optioned with the $8000 Innovision Package that adds a 15.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a windshield-projected head-up display and multi-colour ambient lighting. The 190TDI Premium is also available with two new bundles, including the $8000 R-Line Package that nets buyers four-wheel steering, active anti-roll bars, 20-inch Nevada alloy wheels and R-Line exterior and interior styling.

tend to autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lanekeep and steering assist, blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control with stop and go functionality. The 190TDI Premium ups the ante with air suspension, 20-inch Montero alloy wheels, adaptive IQ Matrix LED headlights, ventilated front seats with massaging functionality, and Savona leather upholstery. A Mistral beige interior colour is an exclusive no-cost option for the 190TDI Premium, serving as an alternative to the standard black hue.

Meanwhile, the $8000 sound and comfort package features a larger fuel tank, a 730W 12-speaker Dynaudio sound system, heated rear seats, fourzone climate control, a power-adjustable steering column with memory functionality for the front seats and side mirrors, and surround-view cameras. As before, a tilt and slide-adjustable panoramic sunroof with a power-operated blind costs $3000, but it is now exclusive to the 190TDI Premium. Premium paintwork still costs $2000, with Antimony Silver Metallic and Malbec Red Metallic joining Silicone Grey Metallic and Deep Black Pearl Effect, while Reef Blue Metallic has been replaced by Aquamarine Blue Metallic.

Hockey tightens in finals preparations W

win for the latter would all but ensure it will make the finals. Warracknabeal, which can no longer qualify for the finals, will have nothing to lose when it takes on Dimboola Roos. The Roos have more at stake if they wish to remain in the hunt to finish on top of the ladder, making this a danger game. Horsham Jets must score an unlikely win in their game against dominant Yanac if they are to remain a chance to make the top four, and Yanac needs to win to stay ahead of the Roos.

BY SIMON KING

immera Hockey Association teams take the field for round-12 games at Nhill’s Davis Park on Saturday, with results of most games influencing which teams will progress to the finals.

With some teams still to confirm their place in finals, four of six matches across Open and Women’s division last week were ties, highlighting how even the teams fighting for these positions are. This weekend, the biggest game for the round in Open competition will be a blockbuster featuring Dimboola Burras and Warracknabeal Hoops. A clear result will possibly determine which team will finish in second place on the ladder and earn the valuable double chance in the finals. The Hoops sit one win ahead of the Burras, but still have to face undefeated Yanac again, so a Hoops win would have them draw two games ahead, which might be enough to stay in second place. In contrast, a Burras win would bring these teams level on points. Because they have the easier run to the end of the season the Burras would be in a prime position to snatch second place on the ladder by the end of the regular season. The winner of a game between Kaniva Cobras and Nhill Rangers will end

Under-16s

The results of all three under-16 games will have a profound influence on this division’s ladder. Horsham Bombers take on the undefeated Yanac Warriors in a game they must win if they are to have a chance of making the finals. After seeing sixth-placed Dimboola Kangaroos push the reigning premiers last weekend, they will go into the game with confidence. Warrack Revengers need the win to confirm a place in the finals and will not want to take the Kangaroos lightly. Kaniva Raiders need a win over Nhill Leopards to stay in second place on the ladder, while the Nhill team needs the points to hold fourth place. Results – Open: Kaniva Cobras 2 (goals, L.

IN DISPUTE: Dimboola Burra’s Jack Lovett, left and Steven Zanker of Yanac Tigers fight for control of the ball. Picture: SIMON KING the round in the top four, which could prove significant. Both have to play all three teams above them again before the finals. Horsham Hurricanes, meanwhile, face the daunting task of needing to be the first team this season to beat Yanac Tigers to remain in the hunt for a place in the finals. A Tigers victory will ensure they

again finish as minor premiers and will also make it difficult for Hurricanes to climb into fourth place.

Phantoms teams make state finals BY DAVID BERRY

straight-sets exit from finals last year is motivation for Phantoms men’s teams playing in Victorian Volleyball League finals on Saturday. Phantoms reserves and division-two men’s and division-three women’s teams have qualified for finals at the State Volleyball Centre on Saturday. Nathan Berry, Jack Hannan and possibly Cam Robinson will play for the reserves, while Tim Popple and Will Saligari are key players for the division-two team. Jade Saligari is in a squad of 15 for the women’s division-three team. Robinson is in a race against time with league officials over a qualification dispute. The power hitter has played seven premier and seven reserves games. Club officials are seeking a bylaw clarification to enable Robinson to play reserves finals. In the only meeting between the two teams this season back in June in the reserves, Monash Uni Two defeated Phantoms comfortably in three sets. But number-one setter Berry is taking no notice of previous form. “We had a really positive training session during the break, and we’re determined to go deep into the finals this year,” he said. A win on Saturday will see the team having to front up again in the afternoon to play the

winner of the Renegades versus Eastside Hawks elimination final. “We know that is a tough ask, especially in finals, but it is nothing we’re not used to – having to play two games in one day,” Berry said. In the men’s division-two grade, Phantoms dropped its last two games to tumble from the top of the ladder to fourth, losing the double chance. It now faces a cut-throat elimination final against Eastside Hawks. In their only meeting for the season, Eastside defeated Phantoms in four sets, but coach Popple is not reading too much into the result. “Like the reserves boys we also had a positive training session during the break and sorted out some defensive strategies we needed just to top off our game style,” he said. “We’ll be ready for Eastside on Saturday and I’m confident the team will do well.” A win will lead to a semi-final clash with either Monash Uni One or International later in the afternoon. The division-three girls have been playing good, consistent volleyball and square-off against Monash One, which they beat in five sets the only time they met this season. Saligari will be hoping to make the final team, but with 15 players in the squad and only 12 getting the chance to play it will be tough for the Murtoa College youngster.

Horsham club pigeons speed home Leading pigeons in Horsham Homing Club’s 182-kilometre second race from Ouyen, averaged 96 kilometres an hour. Eighteen club members entered 756 pigeons in the race, which made the most of a north-easterly breeze. Large numbers of pigeons entered the home region in groups, indicating they had avoided natural predators or been affected by adverse weather. After four races on the 2019 program, club pres-

ident Terry Breuer leads the aggregate field by one point from Bruce Rentsch, who has won two of the four races to date. Results: Terry Brauer,1558 metres a minute 1; Brian Watts, 1556 mm 2; Rob Nelson 3, John Muszkieta 4. Speeds take into account the location of lofts to determine the average speed, which in turn dictates the results achieved in a race. Next weekend the club will have races from Mildura and Ararat.

United for mental health

n over-40s football and netball event in Ararat on Sunday will help raise money for Grampians Community Health mental health and family violence programs.

Billed as a chance for competitors to show the younger generation ‘they’ve still got it’, the day is the brainchild of former Richmond and Ararat footballer Scott Turner. The event will be at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval, with netball starting at 1pm and football at 2pm. The over-40s football game has become an annual event in Ararat, while this is the first year an over40s netball game will be played. Mr Turner said the event had been well received by the Ararat community. “Last year’s match was an overwhelming success,” he said. “We easily found players for the two teams for the football match, attracted a crowd of more than 500 people and raised money to bring the HALT mental health program to the region.” Netball organiser Meagan Shea said she was amazed at the interest and support for netball to be included. “The inclusion of netball is a great addition and will only attract more people to the game,” she said.

OLD DOGS, NEW TRICKS: Netballer Meagan Shea, left, and footballer Scott Turner, right, show kids at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval their skills. The pair has helped organise an over-40s football and netball day to raise money for Grampians Community Health. “Sponsorship for the match is even bigger than last year with a few new major sponsors on board.” Grampians Community Health chief executive Greg Little said the day would have a ‘healthy families’ focus to highlight the importance of working together to prevent family violence. “The day is celebrating healthy families and relationships because

positive, safe and respectful relationships are essential to the health and wellbeing of all of us and make for happier communities to live in,” he said. Mrs Shea said the matches were a great way to highlight strong, healthy families and gender equality, displaying positive relationships and community involvement. “Even though there’s an important

Hunter heads pack in Rupanyup After long, hard days of digging, lifting, hauling and shifting, Stawell landscaper David Hunter finds it difficult to find the motivation to get out and run. He trains for perhaps ‘one or two days a week’ but that was enough to have him primed for Stawell Amateur Athletic Club’s eight-kilometre handicap at Rupanyup. Hunter won from cheerful veteran Terry Jenkins and improving rookie Rebecca Hurley who both got closer than he thought. Hunter knows he has to get off his tail if he is going to be fit for the Melbourne Marathon in October, an endeavour for which he lacks no motivation. “I love that weekend in Melbourne. It’s a great atmosphere being with people with the same intent to do the best they can. And to finish the marathon on the MCG, that really gets the adrenalin pumping,” he said. Eventually, Hunter will build up to the minimum of running 50 kilometres a week if he is to be fully fit to achieve his goal of bettering the four hours he’s managed. “To be honest, I think I run best when I am fresh, but to run a marathon you have to have the kilometres in your legs,” he said. “I actually think of the marathon as a relaxed jog for about 35-kilometres, but a hard slog for the last seven or eight kilometres.” In a keenly-contested sub-junior one-kilometre scamper, Hunter’s girls Chloe and Olivia did their best to emulate dad, but a determined Charlie Dunn held on to win by just six seconds. The club returns to home turf for an eight-kilometre handicap in Stawell on Saturday.

Jack wins mates race

Stawell and Ararat Cross Country Club legend Jack Trounson is proud to be one of the fortunate few 71-year-olds who is not on any long-term medication. The one exception – painkillers – is a temporary necessity to arrest the torment of a troublesome ankle which is fused together with metal screws, the legacy of a schoolboy accident unrelated to sport. Wednesday, July 31, 2019

Running with relative freedom on Sunday, Trounson ended a long sequence of seconds, thirds and fourths to win his second Peter Gibson eight-kilometre handicap. Surging to the lead with two kilometres to run, Trounson forced the pace, acutely aware of the one danger, Chris Barwick, who gave eight minutes start to the veteran, but was closing in fast. “If he’d caught me, I wouldn’t have been able to go with him, because I had nothing left,” Trounson said. But in the end, Barwick’s handicap was too great to overcome, with the winner holding a 1.47-minute margin and third-placed Sandra Barwick backing up last week’s win by chasing her husband home. In horse-racing terms, Trounson was a long odds-on favourite to win a race that is special to him. The sponsor is a training and travel companion and for many years with the club they have been together for pre-race and post-race warm-ups and warm-downs. In the five years running of the Gibson, on what has been described as the ‘perfect’ cross-country course at Ararat’s Dunneworthy Common, Trounson has never finished further back than third. Gibson paid tribute to his training partner at the post-race presentation before Trounson clarified the situation. “I’ve been training solo from five o’clock in the morning. We haven’t trained together for months,” he said. That was due to Gibson being burdened by his own injury, a badly bruised foot as a result of a land-clearing mishap. Trounson’s woes mean that he now trains four days a week instead of five. “I still have the fitness but not the stamina,” he lamented. This Sunday, the club meets at the Ararat Harness Racing circuit for a 10-kilometre Blizzard Family Championship. – Keith Lofthouse

message attached, the match is a fun day out for the whole family,” she said. Gates for the event will open at midday, with gold coin entry. Food and drink will be available at the ground, with presentations, raffles and an auction to follow the matches. People can call Rachel Whittaker at Grampians Community Health on 5358 7400 for more information.

Sport Club to host new enduro After hosting a stage of the Australian MX Nationals and the World Junior Motocross Championships during the past two years, Horsham Motorcycle Club will chart a new course this year. Instead of hosting an event at Dooen, the club will travel to Mockinya for the first ever Black Ranges Enduro on Sunday. President Cory Watts said people often associated the club only with motocross, but in reality its members were involved with a variety of motorcycle racing, including Finke, Hattah, dirt track and even road racing. “Years ago our club was part the Green Triangle Enduro series, and we’re lucky to have one of the champion riders from that era, Dean Netherway, a life member of our club,” he said. “Dean has jumped in feet first to bring his experience to this new event.” The Black Ranges Enduro will consist of a one-and-a-half hour junior enduro on Sunday morning, followed by a four-hour senior enduro. The senior category will be broken into classes of pony express under-45, 45-to59 and 60-and-over, a mixed male-female team or Ironman. Entries close tomorrow and can be made by visiting www.cloudentries.com.au/ Event/EventForm/3885. Mr Watts said entry numbers would be limited as this was the club’s first enduro event in 15 years and organisers wanted to get it right.

Creek rises with Phoenix H

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham basketballer Mitch Creek will return home to play for the newly formed South East Melbourne Phoenix in Australia’s NBL this season.

Creek spent the past year in the USA chasing his dream of playing in the NBA – a dream he achieved when he was awarded a 10-day contract by the Brooklyn Nets in January. Creek played four games for the Nets during the course of two 10-day contracts before signing another 10-day contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves, appearing in one game. Creek spent the majority of the NBA offseason working out with the Timberwolves and playing for the club’s NBA Summer League team in the hope of earning a contract for the 2019-20 season. Creek left no stone unturned in his contract chase, averaging 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in more than 25 minutes a game during summer league action. He also showcased an improved three-point shot, shooting 50 percent from long range during the Timberwolves’ seven game summer league campaign.

Despite Creek’s impressive play he was not offered a contract for the upcoming NBA season and elected to return to Australia to play for the Phoenix on a two-year deal. The 27-year-old last played in the NBL during the 2018-19 season when he led Adelaide to the grand final series against Melbourne United, falling just short of winning the title. He said he was excited to continue his pursuit of an NBL championship with the Phoenix. “I’m really excited to get back to Melbourne and start preparing for the NBL season,” he told the club’s website. “The Phoenix has been really supportive of me the past few months, I couldn’t have asked for more, and I’m more than going to repay the favour. “I did everything humanly possible to make my NBA dream come true and have no regrets. “From the second I get out of bed until after I go to bed, I make sure I leave impressions on everyone. Knowing all that I can live with the results.” Phoenix general manager Tommy Greer said Creek was ‘one of the best Australian players outside of the NBA’.

Battle royale for top-five spots With finals approaching in Mininera and District Football League any of the top six teams could win the premiership. It is a circumstance primed to set up for a great finals program. Last weekend’s home-andaway games produced wins for Glenthompson-Dunkeld, Caramut, Great Western, LismoreDerrinallum, Tatyoon and Wickliffe-Lake Bolac. This week Tatyoon has the big job of taking on Great Western, but the Hawks will be full of confidence and up for the contest after handing Penshurst its second loss for the season, albeit by only five points. Tatyoon came out strongly in the first quarter, establishing an early lead, but Penshurst reeled the Hawks back to go into half time trailing by four points. Tatyoon held on throughout the second half and secured the win, producing six single goal scorers. Sean McDougall collected consecutive best-on-ground honours.

McDougall had help from Sam Thompson and William Lawrie and their team will be keen to keep the good run going. Great Western had another good win at the weekend, this time over Hawkesdale-Macarthur. There was only two points in the contest at quarter time but this was the only time the Eagles came close. For the rest of the day the Lions gradually pulled away to end up with an 82-point win. Gerrard Cunningham added another four goals to his tally for the winners, while Jeremy Cronin, Lachlan Malloy and Thomas Cairns did their fair share around the ground. Penshurst will look to redeem last week’s performance when it hosts Woorndoo-Mortlake. Woorndoo-Mortlake is also coming off a loss, to the tune of 20 points, to Wickliffe-Lake Bolac. The Tigers are fighting to keep their spot in the top five and

will look to take this game on and show that they are legitimate contenders. Players such as Edward Gubbins, Damian Pemberton and Jesse Johnson all played well last week and will look to do so again against the Bombers. Penshurst had a slow start against Tatyoon and chased its opponents all game. The side will be keen to come out of the blocks a bit stronger this week against the good-starting Tigers. Matthew Rentsch, Sam Weston, and Campbell Watt were all among the best for the Bombers and in a must-win game this week they will want to again perform strongly. In other games, Glenthompson-Dunkeld hosts Hawkesdale-Macarthur, Wickliffe-Lake Bolac should have little trouble when it plays Caramut, Ararat Eagles travel to Mininera to take on SMW Rovers and Moyston-Willaura plays Lismore-Derrinallum. – Jonathan Box

Three Horsham Cricket Association players and one from Wimmera-Mallee Cricket Association were honoured with selection in Western Waves Cricket Region’s eighth team of the year. Homers’ Simon Hopper and Jarred Combe, Horsham Saints’ Gary Davidson and Jeffcott’s Lachlan Jones were all selected in the team, which was announced at a presentation in Hamilton on Sunday. It is Hopper’s fourth selection in the Waves team of the year, while Combe has been picked three times. All four Wimmera representatives enjoyed stellar seasons, with Hopper, Davidson and Combe each posting averages of more than 60 runs with the bat. Jones was named vice captain as an all-rounder, averaging more than 55 runs with the bat and taking 15 wickets at an average of 9.88 with ball in hand. The team is selected on a statistical basis, with finals performances and Twenty20 runs and wickets not taken into account, allowing players’ records to be compared fairly across competitions.

Storm thunders home BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

position shuffle proved the spark Jeparit-Rainbow needed to overcome Pimpinio in the final quarter of their tense Horsham District netball showdown at Rainbow. Trailing by four goals at three quarter time, Storm co-coaches Ashleigh Morrison and Bridget McKenzie elected to move wing attack Maddison Marra to goal attack, while McKenzie joined Ebony Spokes in defence. The move proved a masterstroke as the Storm, which only scored seven goals in the third quarter, opened the floodgates in the final term. The Storm connected on 19 goal attempts in the quarter to record a memorable come-from-behind 47-44 win. Marra capped a best on court performance with 12 goals, while Oliva Revell also shone at goal attack, goal shooter and goal keeper. It was a cruel break for Pimpinio, which nearly finished with its fourth win of the season. Jenelle Baker at goal attack and Maggie Clough at wing attack and centre were the Tigers’ best players. Taylors Lake continued to show

growth despite a 59-40 loss to Swifts at North Park, Stawell. After breaking a seven-year losing stretch earlier this season, the Lakers refused to lie down for the finals-bound Baggies. The excellent play of Swifts’ Kristy Dodds and goalie Michaela Armer kept the Lakers at bay, but the efforts of Mikayla Case in the midcourt and 22 goals to Jorrdan Weir ensured the team was not blown away. Natimuk United continued its march towards the minor premiership with a resounding 63-38 win against Noradjuha-Quantong, extending its lead at every change to extend its unbeaten start to the season to 13 games. The only team within touching distance to the Ewes is Laharum, which impressed in its own right with a 6043 win against Kalkee, led by Maddie Iredell and Erin Mellington. The Demons’ league-leading percentage of 196.33 means they are capable of taking top spot if Natimuk United falters in the final three rounds, but that scenario appears unlikely. The final match of the round saw Harrow-Balmoral earn a confidence-boost-

ing win against fellow top-six side Edenhope-Apsley. The Roos’ calling card all season has been their stifling team defence. It was on display against the Saints as they only allowed 16 goals in the first half. At the other end of the court Amy Lewis scored 33 goals to lead the 5039 victory. Young Saint Alarna Proffit was set a difficult task when asked to defend Lewis, but competed hard to help limit the damage. The Roos will now take on Laharum in a compelling round 16 clash. A win to Harrow-Balmoral is unlikely to elevate the team above the Demons due to the side’s inferior percentage, but would give the team a big psychological edge with finals less than a month away. Pimpinio will be at home in a challenging match against Natimuk United, Rupanyup will play host to Edenhope-Apsley and Taylors Lake will welcome Jeparit-Rainbow to Dock Lake Reserve, while Swifts, Noradjuha-Quantong and Kalkee have byes.

Saints making frontrunners nervous

STRONG: Warrack Eagles goal attack Molly Stewart shoots for goal.

Just as they have done for the past two seasons, Horsham Saints are making Wimmera Netball Association frontrunners nervous at the pointy end of the season. The Saints have claimed the past two premierships from fifth place on the ladder after indifferent starts to the season. They look to be making their move again in 2019 after starting with three losses from their first five games. The Saints banked their third win on the trot by downing fellow finals-bound team Warrack Eagles 67-57 at Coughlin Park on Saturday. Aiding the Saints’ quest for a third straight flag is the return of young gun Maggie Caris. The towering teen connected on 44 of her 61 shots to help the Saints withstand a second half surge from the Eagles, forming a deadly tandem with Lavinia Fox in goals. Elly Barnett was also impressive in a battle against Eagle goalie Molly Stewart. Centre Sarah Spicer was best on court for the Eagles. The Saints have now overtaken the Eagles

for fourth place and sit only four points behind third-placed Ararat. The Rats’ once-promising season is sputtering after four losses from their past five games, although they had the reprieve of a bye at the weekend. They will now play Southern Mallee Giants, who overcame a spirited Nhill to win 62-47 at Davis Park. The Giants were led by a stellar performance from goal defence Codie Robbins, who restricted Tiger Charlotte Foulds to 20 goals. In the other goal ring Steph Thompson netted 41 shots for the Giants, nearly matching Nhill’s total on her own. The Giants are well out of the finals race with four wins from their 13 games this season, but will provide a barometer for where Ararat is at. Other matches at the weekend saw Horsham overcome Dimboola 65-36 behind strong defensive work from bookends Faith McKenzie in defence and Emma Buwalda in attack. McKenzie hounded Roo goal shooter Ni-

cole Polycarpou in the first half, prompting a position shuffle from Dimboola in the second half that saw Polycarpou moved to goal attack. Roo goal defence Olivia Jorgensen and wing defence Meaghan Pohlner were the team’s best players. Minyip-Murtoa also had a strong win against Stawell, extending its unbeaten run to 12 straight games with a 71-33 clinic. Kirby Knight compiled another 60-goal performance and Taylor Mentha patrolled the defensive goal ring to set up the win. Jemma Clarkson at goal attack and Tarnee Orr in midcourt were the Warriors’ best. Stawell will now face the in-form Saints at its Central Park home, while Horsham and Minyip-Murtoa will play a heavyweight clash at City Oval. If the Burras emerge unscathed from the match, they will be odds-on favourites to finish the season undefeated and will enter finals with the mantle of premiership favouritism. Dimboola has a round 15 bye. – Colin MacGillivray

Bombers stun Rams BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

oradjuha-Quantong all but sealed a finals berth and Natimuk United possibly squandered a golden top three finish opportunity in an eventful Horsham District league match at Natimuk Showground.

The traditional rivals each had plenty to play for and it was the Rams who grabbed a narrow lead at quarter time, slotting five goals straight to the Bombers’ 4.1. The home side maintained a narrow lead at the long break, but in the second half the arm wrestle of a contest started to turn in Noradjuha-Quantong’s favour. Despite the continued absence of spearhead Shane Oakley, Cam Bruce stepped up with a seven-goal haul – his best performance of the season. With Ryan Stacey, Dustin Cross, Jack Vague and Jordan Huff, four goals, also exerting their influence on the game, the Bombers opened the floodgates in the final term, kicking seven goals to the Rams’ five to cap a stirring 19.6 (120) to 16.7 (103) win. Justin Bromley, Callum Cameron and Dylan Bates could hold their heads high for the defeated home side, while Jaydon Stiles kicked four goals up forward. The Rams slid to fourth on the ladder after the loss, but will have an opportunity to fight their way back into the top three by season’s end, starting with a game against Pimpinio this weekend. The Tigers were crushed by

Jeparit-Rainbow in a return to form by the Storm, with Ben Warren kicking nine goals and Peter Weir slotting five. Pimpinio’s lone goal in the 29.11 (185) to 1.3 (9) hiding came through Daniel Baker at the start of the third quarter. Dylan Baker and Nathan Clough were also among the team’s best on a tough day at Rainbow. The Storm has a chance to solidify its position with a match against Taylors Lake in round 16. The Lakers were gallant but lacked the polish to overcome Swifts in a match celebrating the indigenous heritage of both clubs at North Park, Stawell. Taylors Lake was only five points in arrears at half time and, led by Heath Kelm and Mitch Whelan with a combined five goals for the day, looked to create a huge upset. But the Baggies steadied the ship in the absence of several key players including the hard-running duo of Damon Folkes and coach Scott Carey. In their absence Todd Matthews, Zach Armer and former coach Ben Martin stood up, Martin booting six goals to help seal the 14.14 (98) to 8.7 (55) win. A top of the ladder clash at Apsley was won convincingly by Harrow-Balmoral, which defeated the hometown Saints 27.6 (168) to 12.5 (77) in a display of accurate kicking. The Saints served up a competitive performance – led by Jeremy Kealy, Jak Ryan and four-goal George Walker – but

could not contain a surfeit of Roo goalkickers. More than half of the team got its name on the scoresheet, led by Michael Close, six goals; Simon Close, five; and Cody Deutscher, Scott Addinsall and coach Nick Pekin, three each. The game showed how deep the gulf between the Roos and the rest of the competition truly is; despite kicking the highest score registered against Harrow-Balmoral this season the second-placed Saints still nearly finished the day with a triple-digit defeat. Kalkee kept its hopes of overtaking Noradjuha-Quantong for sixth place alive with a 20.14 (134) to 6.7 (43) win against home team Laharum at Cameron Oval. Louis Papst continued his strong recent form with a second consecutive best on ground performance for the Kees, while four goals to Jayden Kuhne, three to Simon Hobbs and two to Colby Ledgar also saw them named among the best. Josh Beddison led all goal kickers with five majors. For Laharum, coach Tom Crawford continued to lead from the front with two goals, supported by Alec Steff, Mitch Horwood and Jed McConville. The road ahead does not get any easier for Laharum, with a road trip to Balmoral to take on the Roos looming on Saturday. Rupanyup will return to action when it hosts Edenhope-Apsley, while Kalkee, Noradjuha-Quantong and Swifts have byes in round 16.

Roos rise to end Demons’ finals bid BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

imboola earned its second successive win and third of the season by downing Horsham on Saturday, effectively ending the Demons’ finals bid in the process.

With its season on the line, Horsham came out firing with five first quarter goals – the first time all season it had booted five in an opening term. The Roos refused to be rattled though, taking control of the match in the second quarter to earn a threepoint lead at the half. With coach Justin Beugelaar and youngster Tom O’Dwyer, four goals each, proving a handful for the Horsham backline, the Roos started to extend their advantage in the second half. Midfielder Matthew Rosier showed his class in a best on ground performance, supported by the likes of Ash Clugston and three-goal Jayden Lehmann. Horsham was gallant in defeat, recording its second-highest score of the season in the 17.11 (113) to 15.6 (96) loss. Coach Deek Roberts and defender Ben Lakin were again among the Demons’ best, while Brad Hartigan and Cullen Williams each kicked three

goals, but the team could not contain Dimboola’s many goalkickers. Horsham is now two wins and percentage adrift of Horsham Saints after the Saints’ 14.21 (105) to 2.8 (20) win against Warrack Eagles and seems all but certain of missing the finals for the first time since 2001. The Saints, meanwhile, surged to a sixth win from their past seven matches, dismantling the Eagles and atoning for a two-point loss to the team earlier in the season. Playing an annual Blue Ribbon match, the Saints controlled the game everywhere except the scoreboard in the first quarter – booting 2.13 to 0.0. Once the team straightened out its kicking the game was no contest, as Connor and Jacob O’Beirne paired with coach Luke Fisher and Angus Gove to overrun the Eagles. Angus Martin and Sam Breuer, three goals each, were among six Saints who kicked multiple goals. For the Eagles, Dane Stewart, Riley Morrow and Phillip Heubner joined usual suspects Ryan McKenzie, Nick Peters and Jake Peters as the best named players. Stawell suffered a 17.16 (118) to 7.3 (45) loss to ladder leader Minyip-Murtoa at the weekend but has plenty to look forward to this round when its hosts the Saints.

The club will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the merger between Stawell and the Warriors to form the Stawell Warriors in 1999. A presentation of special jumpers commemorating the history of both clubs will be at 2pm, with dinner after the senior game starting at 6.30pm followed by the announcement of a Stawell Warriors 20 years all-star team and a jumper auction. Minyip-Murtoa, which was led to victory against Stawell by starring performances from forwards Jae McGrath, four goals, and Brad Inglis, six, will now set its sights on Horsham. A win would guarantee coach John Delahunty’s men will finish the season atop the ladder as minor premiers. Second-placed Ararat will also be keen to test itself as it returns from a bye against Southern Mallee Giants. The Giants brushed aside Nhill in a 15.17 (107) to 8.13 (61) victory on Saturday, Clint Burdett, Sam Weddell and coach Coleman Schache all prominent. For Nhill, Frederick Stephan, Toby Case, Matthew McCallum and Liam Albrecht were among the standouts. The Tigers will be on the road in round 15 when they take on Warrack Eagles at Brim.

IN CONTROL: Warrack Eagle Brett Boyle grabs the ball during a Blue Ribbon match against Horsham Saints at the weekend. The Saints went on to beat the Eagles 14.21 (105) to 2.8 (20).

Demons in final H

BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

orsham Demons’ junior female footballers are preparing for their first ever grand final appearance on Friday night.

The team won its way to the Deakin University Female Football League junior grand final with a 4.6 (30) to 0.6 (6) preliminary final victory against Warrnambool in Hamilton on Sunday. The Demons, who finished second on the ladder, started slowly and failed to register a score in the first term, but took control of the match in the second with 2.4 to one behind. Nekaela Butler, fresh from a two-game stint with the Western Bulldogs in the VFL Women’s competition, was a standout, kicking a goal and helping turn the match in Horsham’s favour. Lauren Sykes failed to kick a goal for the first time in her past five matches, but was still among Horsham’s best, while Miette Hopper, Briodi Cook and Paige Glover all hit the scoreboard to help finish off the win. Horsham faces a challenging opponent in the grand final, with undefeated South Warrnambool waiting. The sides met in a semi final on June 21, with South Warrnambool defeating Horsham 5.9 (39) to 0.0 (0). Despite not scoring, the Demons managed to hold the Roosters to one of their lowest scores of the season in the game.

Seniors

Horsham Demons made a long trek to take on undefeated South Warrnambool after the

game had a late venue change to Mack Oval. An atypically sunny Warrnambool July day led to a clean, fast, free-flowing game of football, with the ladder leaders jumping out of the blocks to a three-goal lead at quarter time. Kate McLean continued her clinical performance in front of goal, kicking the first of the second quarter and the Demons’ only goal for the match, giving the team a burst of energy and enthusiasm. The Demons held the Roosters goalless in the second quarter with strong defensive pressure, but lacked scoreboard pressure of their own. The second half continued the see-sawing game of football, with the ball flowing deep into each team’s forward line but both sides struggling to make an impact on the scoreboard. The Demons charged forward early in the last, creating a number of early opportunities without kicking a goal. The Roosters were able to counter attack, kicking two goals of their own and putting the game to bed. An exhausted Demons side left nothing on the park in a sensational four-quarter effort. The team welcomed four new debutants in Kahlee Papst, Tegan Kerrins, Bonnie Delahunty and Olivia Heubener – all performing well and giving to the Demons’ good run. The best players for the day were Faith McKenzie, Meaghan Pohlner, Beth Bates, Amy Shrive, Tegan Kerrins and Sophie Robinson. – Garrett Liston

HISTORY: Members of a commemorative 1976-1998 Goroke All Stars football team pose for a photo. More than 220 people flocked to Goroke Hall on July 20 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Goroke’s merger with Border Districts. Two football and two netball All Star teams were announced as part of the festivities. Event organiser Darren Walter described the night as a ‘great success’.

Wimmera footballers prepare for cup Several Wimmera footballers are among a 50-strong Western Bulldogs Next Generation Academy junior boys squad for the upcoming V/Line Cup. The cup, to be played during the week starting Monday, September 23 in Shepparton, comprises the top under-15 talent in regional Victoria. Wimmera players selected for the squad are: Kade Bohner, Tom Cousins, Jordan Cox, Henry Shea and Flynn Toner, Ararat; Jett Hopper and Brody Pope, Horsham; Max Bryan and Andrew Taylor, Horsham Saints; Matthew Brown

and Brayden Purchase, Nhill; and Sam Jenkinson, Stawell. Team manager Jason Muldoon said the squad was picked after an extensive selection process that included Western Bulldogs Next Generation Academy, WBNGA, regional trial matches. “The selection process was very thorough, we are bringing together players from across the WBNGA zones, which is a huge area,” he said. Former Victoria Country under-16 and Greater Western Victoria Rebels assistant coach Ricky Andrews will coach the WBNGA

V/Line Cup team. Current Kolora Noorat senior coach Ben Walsh will coach the WBNGA B team. Assisting the pair will be former Geelong and Port Adelaide player Shayne Breuer and current Hampden WBNGA head coach Tim Hunt. “The coaching staff is very impressed with the standard of players that are coming through to the V/Line Cup,” Muldoon said. “This is a direct result of the structures and level of coaching the players are receiving at their local clubs.”

Pickert leaps into lead role BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY

tar Horsham Hornet Tim Pickert will take over as the team’s coach for the upcoming 2019-20 Country Basketball League season.

Pickert, who was team captain last year under playing coach Cam Bruce, has previously coached the team, most recently during the 201314 season. Pickert is coming off a stellar season, in which he was named the south west conference most valuable player. The guard averaged more than 21 points a game and was in the top five players in the conference for made three-pointers. It was his second consecutive MVP award after he won the same honour playing in the north west conference during the 2017-18 season. Pickert will take the reins from Bruce after a season of transition for the Hornets. The team lost to Bacchus Marsh in a conference semi-final but saw the emergence of promising young players Jeremiah McKenzie and

Mitch Martin. With other team leaders s Damien Skurrie and Matt Lovel drawing towards the end of their careers, Pickert will have to balance a blend of youth and experience as the Hornets push for another grand final appearance. Pickert’s signing represents the final puzzle piece for the Horents’ coaching staff. Horsham Amateur Basketball Association coaching director Tony Sleep was announced as head coach for the upcoming Horsham Lady Hornets season last month. Jon Fitzgerald and Nicole Lakin will coach the under-18 boys and girls squads respectively. The under-16 boys squad will be headed by Scott Benbow, with Lakin to coach the girls under-16 squad. Owen Hughan and Rebecca McIntyre will coach the under-14 boys and girls squads, while Josh Friend and Cassandra Haskett take over as respective coaches of the under-12 boys and girls squads. The 2019-20 Country Basketball League season will start in October.

Nine Wimmera juniors are among 240 young basketballers selected for this year’s Basketball Victoria Country Jamboree. The Jamboree is an annual under-12 event that teaches players the skills necessary to rise through the Basketball Victoria Country ranks. Players were selected from annual under-12 skills days throughout country Victoria. During the four-day competition in Echuca, players will be split into 24 separate teams, playing a series of matches against each other. The Wimmera players picked for the Jamboree are Horsham Amateur Basketball Association girls Maddison Bethune, Milla Carter, Gemma Freijah and Cara Tippet; boys Micah Livingstone, Elijah Mckenzie, Levi Munyard and Ethan Worthy; and Ararat Basketball Association’s Samuel Wong. Basketball Victoria Country general manager David Huxtable said being picked for the Jamboree was an excellent opportunity to gain experience in the BVC system. “The Jamboree is one of the most exciting events on our calendar as we get to see the newest age group of country stars enter the pathway,” he said. “Players and coaches alike emerge from the Jamboree with a plethora of new skills and make life-long friends throughout the state. “It is an incredible opportunity that our best and brightest have earned through their elite work at the under-12 skills days. “We encourage all players to take on this great opportunity to learn from a variety of new coaches, take on board the lessons, players and strategies from our best coaches and most of all enjoy every moment of the Jamboree.” More than 1000 athletes participated at this year’s under-12 skills days – up from 820 in 2018. This year’s Jamboree will be from Saturday, September 21 to Tuesday, September 24 at Echuca Basketball Stadium. – Colin MacGillivray
