Powering a solution BY MICHAEL SCALZO

n energy taskforce leader has earmarked Horsham as the centrepiece of a Wimmera-southern Mallee led Victorian power revolution.

As rising gas prices impact the viability of high-profile manufacturing businesses in the region, Grampians New Energy Taskforce chair Stuart Benjamin has re-emphasised the opportunity for businesses to lead ‘the biggest change in the Victorian economy we have ever seen’. Mr Benjamin highlighted the capac-

ity for hydrogen, potentially sourced from wastewater, in servicing the heating needs of heat-dependant manufacturing; as well as the region’s extremely stable wind conditions. However, he said the ‘key’ for the region rested with transmission line upgrades and a doubling of the proposed 220,000-volt amp capacity. “We can’t pursue any renewablysourced generation unless we have the powerlines,” Mr Benjamin said. “Transmission is the key. It involves essentially turning the Victorian power grid upside down. “Our transmission lines start in La-

trobe Valley as thick as your arm and by the time they get to Horsham, they are like fencing wire. “We need to reverse that. We need the big powerlines in this part of the world because the current proposed line will already be at capacity when it opens. Let’s double it, future proof it, and generate these opportunities.” Mr Benjamin said there was always going to be a lot of pain during the transition from carbon-based to carbon-zero energy sources. “We have known this day has been coming for 20 years, but sadly, successive governments and society have

chosen to either ignore the future or put the decision off to another day,” he said. “The crisis in Ukraine has brought all this to a head sooner than thought, and that has caused terrible pain for large employers who use gas as their peak resource. But, sometimes, when bad things happen, it can focus our attention – and for a lot of people, all of a sudden everyone understands why this transition needs to happen to zero carbon where we can rely on energy sources we can control.” Mr Benjamin said it was important to support businesses and the commu-

nity during the transition in the short term, but it was difficult to blame renewables for the current gas situation. “We are not there yet in this energy transition,” he said. “Potentially there is five to 10 years before we have that reliable gas replacement, so talk is needed about how to manage this contextual price hike within this context. Hopefully everyone can survive this shock and move forward. People haven’t invested in coal in a long time because when renewables are up-and-running, they are cheaper.” Continued page 5

Council ticks budget, rate increase H

BY JESSICA GRIMBLE

orsham Rural City Council will reduce its farm differential for 2022-23 rates to 50 percent.

The council adopted its budget for 2022-23, and the subsequent three financial years, during a marathon fourhour online meeting on Monday night. The rate distribution notes a 2.44 percent increase for farm properties, a 2.23 percent increase for residential properties, a 0.35 percent increase for commercial properties and a 6.9 percent increase for industrial properties. The $60.8-million budget allocates more than $21-million to capital works. It allocates more than $7-million to rural roads and infrastructure. Staff salaries account for almost half the council’s expenditure.

The budget notes that farmland value has increased by 41.5 percent this year and the residential sector by 24.5 percent. The council says changes to its differential and municipal charge would lead to a ‘fairer distribution’ of the rate pool and mitigate ‘rate shock’ created by significant changes in property values. Mayor Robyn Gulline said the budget tried to share the rates burden across sectors. “Councils deliver 25 percent of the services, facilities and infrastructure to our communities with less than four percent of the tax revenue,” she said. “This budget attempts to share the tax burden across all of the different sectors and when there are widely different value increases in one sector relative to the other, that is a huge

challenge.” Cr Gulline said the council had consciously allocated its spend to communities and projects across the municipality. “It’s a very complex task, but we have tried our best to be fair to everyone,” she said. “Fairness depends on the seat you are sitting on.”

Ongoing challenges

Cr Penny Flynn said Horsham’s Christian Emergency Food Centre had experienced increased demand, and the challenges of COVID-19 and influenza were ongoing. “We cannot forget there are people in our community on low and fixed incomes and on payment plans – not only for utilities, but for medication for their families,” she said. “These are members of our commu-

nity who cannot claim their rates back as a business expense.” Cr Ian Ross said the council needed to be mindful of the impacts of inflation and increasing interest rates for residents. “While the farming community has been offered a greater differential, they are still paying a bigger share as it’s increased by 0.75 percent of the share,” he said. “When you take into account the growth of urban and industrial subdivisions, we are effectively paying two percent more of our share of the pie.” Cr Ross gained support for his motion that called for the council to review funding for rural roads in light of increasing fuel and gravel costs, as part of the budget’s approval. His attempts to increase funds and escalate a timeline on development

Core of eisteddfod assured in online performance Throughout recent weeks, Wimmera music talents have had the opportunity to participate in a Wimmera Music Eisteddfod 2022 Performance Evaluation. Wimmera Music Eisteddfod president Lisa Thomas said in 2022 the group chose to offer all amateur performers and students of music the opportunity to receive a perfor-

Cr Di Bell called for more information on staff resourcing to ensure the council could achieve its goals. She also called for the council to review and prioritise capital works projects. Cr David Bowe noted a decreased municipal charge, its community grants program and capital projects such as walking and cycling paths as highlights of the budget. Crs Les Power and Claudia Haenel said the council should aspire to scrap the municipal charge. People can view the budget via the council’s website.

mance evaluation of their work. “We made this decision in view of the disappointment of cancelling the last two events, in July 2020 and July 2021,” she said. “We wanted to ensure that teachers, students and performers’ efforts could be recognised and that in turn feedback and critique from qualified adjudicators could be given.”

Performers video recorded their presentations and submitted them online for adjudication. Mrs Thomas said prize money and trophies had been removed this year, but the core of the eisteddfod – feedback and critique – remained. “As our eisteddfod is a winter event, we felt this was the safest way to protect our competitors and local

community and ensure the event could go ahead, with no cancellations,” she said. The 2022 adjudicators are Shelley Dunlop for vocals, Alison Kirkpatrick for piano, Jodie Davis for instrumental, and event patron Alex Rathgeber the vocal championship adjudicator. Rathgeber sponsored the solo vocal championship.

Horsham Rural City councillors have called for an investigation into one of their own. Cr Les Power moved an urgent motion early into Monday night’s online meeting calling on the council to authorise its mayor, Robyn Gulline, to write to the local government inspectorate requesting that it investigate whether Cr Di Bell had failed to disclose her conflict of interest in the Australian Services Union-related urgent business considered during a confidential section of the council’s May meeting. The motion alleged that Cr Bell’s recent conduct in relation to the allegations made by the Australian Services Union amounted to a ‘misuse of position, contrary to section 123 of the Local Government Act 2020’. The motion gained a majority support, 4-3. Crs Power, Gulline, David Bowe and Penny Flynn voted in favour of the motion. Cr Gulline cautioned councillor debate of the motion considering the alleged breach occurred during confidential business – that being, a meeting closed to the public. She told the meeting that three councillors had approached her ‘individually and independently’ with concerns Cr Bell had breached the Act through allegedly not declaring a conflict of interest she had previously acknowledged in writing. Cr Gulline asked Cr Bell if she wished to remain in the chamber during the motion. “Are you talking about the debate of the budget? I’m confused,” Cr Bell said, referencing the first item for debate on the agenda. “This is a personal attack. Wow.” – Jessica Grimble

To date regional clubs have shared in $25,310 to assist with the purchase of a range of equipment including BBQ’s, goal keeping kits, uniform for umpires, kitchen equipment, first aid kits, training gear, line markers, storage cupboards, tables and chairs, improving floodlights and installing safety fencing.

RELOCATING NEXT TO BRUMBYS WHILE WE RENOVATE

The Horsham Hockey Club recently received $700 towards the purchase of a new BBQ. Jonathon Horsfall, Horsham Hockey Club President picked up the BBQ which is proudly on display in the photo, “We were only recently able to pick up our BBQ, unfortunately due to the current restrictions and hockey finishing early this year, we couldn’t really use it. Hopefully next year we will return to a full season. Once again the Horsham Hockey Club is extremely thankful for the HSCC’s Sponsorship that has enabled us to purchase the BBQ. It will definitely be an asset to the club and used at all our functions going forward.”

Winter causing workforce headaches G

BY JESSICA GRIMBLE

rampians Health expects workforce shortages to impact its services until at least the end of winter.

Acting chief executive Ben Kelly said COVID-19 illness and influenza cases, and caring duties, were impacting staff availability. He said the service was adjusting its bed capacity accordingly. “These pressures are mirrored across our regional and rural health services and are affecting all workforces across the state,” Mr Kelly said. “Our priority is the safety of our staff and patients. “As part of this, Grampians Health is continually reviewing capacity and demand to ensure our resources are available to those who need them most.”

Mr Kelly’s comments come after claims from Member for Lowan Emma Kealy that the service would reduce the number of intensive care beds at Wimmera Base Hospital from three to five for at least a fortnight. Ms Kealy accused the service of ‘another reduction’ since the amalgamation of Wimmera Health Care Group, Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital, Stawell Regional Health and Ballarat Health Services in November. Mr Kelly said the service’s records showed that Wimmera Base Hospital had ‘never been funded’ for five operational ICU beds. “Our capacity, when staffing allows, is up to four patients depending on demand and acuity, noting that our spaces have been adjusted to allow for COVID-safe protocols,” Mr Kelly told The Weekly Advertiser.

“The current limited capacity is in response to staff availability primarily because of illness and caring responsibilities at this time. “Limitations on staff availability has been a challenge throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, where we have had to review staffing and bed availability across all areas on a daily basis.”

Network opportunities

Mr Kelly said partnerships with other healthcare providers helped to manage staffing challenges and acute demand. “Should we require additional support, our ICU capacity will be supplemented through this network – including, but not limited to our Grampians Health campuses,” he said. Grampians Health chief people officer Claire Woods said paid training and professional development oppor-

tunities for existing staff – and opportunities for recruitment – were among priorities for the service. “We will showcase Grampians Health as an employer of choice and show how great the opportunities for career progression are for those who choose to live and work in rural and regional Victoria,” she said. “Part of the focus is on attracting new people to the region – from across Australia and overseas – but importantly we are also very focused on how we can engage with people already living in the region to choose a career in healthcare.” Ms Kealy said the amalgamation ‘promised’ to solve workforce and service pressures. “The formation of Grampians Health was meant to generate a service conduit between the four original agen-

cies to improve and expand health services in much of western Victoria, but we are yet to see that come to fruition. In fact, we’re seeing the opposite,” she said. “Grampians Health management might dispute that these things are happening, but I will always stand with local staff who go above and beyond to care for the people of our region under increasingly difficult circumstances, and who only want to ensure the best possible care for our community. “Grampians Health needs to assure the community that this reduction in ICU beds will only be temporary and is not a step towards diminishing bed capacity permanently.”

Powering a renewables solution From page 1 “Perhaps we could have invested more in coal in the meantime, however an uncertain energy market has limited private investment and left us with holes in the system,” Mr Benjamin said. Victorian co-ordinator of regional Australian renewable-transition advocacy group RE-Alliance, Tony Goodfellow, said the current power crisis was a direct result of 10 years of ‘policy failure’ and a ‘failure to support new investments in power generation’. “Up to 30 percent of our aging coal fleet has been offline due to breakdowns and maintenance, which is what you get when you’re not planning for the future of the system,” he said. “A lack of power supply means all consumers are hopelessly exposed to ballooning gas prices. “The answer here is to get more generation into the system and the cheapest options here are wind and solar, connected by new transmission lines, like the Western Victorian link. “Once these renewables are built, the cost is fixed so consumers won’t be at the mercy of international events.

“Businesses in Western Victoria are suffering from escalating power prices, so it’s urgent that we crack on and build new wind and solar farms and connect them with transmission lines.” Environment Victoria policy and advocacy manager Bronya Lipski said it was imperative governments did everything in their power to help businesses ‘transition’. “That means planning early, putting in place a clear timeline for the phaseout of gas and supporting both local businesses and the most vulnerable in our community,” she said. “This energy crisis makes it obvious that our reliance on fossil fuels is contributing to enormous power prices. “There’s no such thing as cheap, reliable energy from coal or gas anymore. “The biggest barriers to replacing fossil fuels with renewables is transforming our electricity grid from one centred around coal, to one centred around renewables and storage. That’s why we’ll likely need additional energy transmission lines to carry high volumes of new, renewable energy generation from areas rich in sun and wind to where we need power.”

Footpath construction blitz continues Horsham Rural City Council is embarking on its largest ever investment into footpath infrastructure in its Draft Budget for 2022-23.

The land affected by the application is: 99 Wilson Street, Horsham, 101 Wilson Street, Horsham and 58 Darlot Street, Horsham.

In direct response to community consultation calling for greater resources to be spent on critical infrastructure, a $583,987 budget will boost our footpath construction, maintenance and repair.

The application is for a permit which allows: Development and use being a six lot subdivision, shop and restricted retail premises, two dwellings, reduction in car parking requirements, business identification signage and creation of carriageway easement

HRCC manages more than 176 kilometres of footpaths across the municipality. Infrastructure Director John Martin said a lot of work went into the planning and assessment of footpaths. “Next financial year HRCC will focus on streets in Horsham North where there are inadequate footpaths,” he said. PAVING THE WAY: Operations team member Johney Htoo works on a Dimboola Road footpath. “There are major upgrades planned for Mary and Anderson Streets and many others in Horsham north, including the railway crossing area at Edith Street. These works will start to happen in the coming months. “In addition we will continue our general – across Horsham – program where we replace poor sections, such as those that have been badly cracked plus the random trip hazards that arise,” Mr Martin said.

The process of assessment, compliance, Mr Martin said. planning and the construction of footpaths “As one section is repaired, others are is a costly and ongoing challenge. moving, due to Horsham’s reactive soils, As one section is finished, another is creating the next batch of repairs. already in decline and other areas are “We have had an increased footpath waiting to be built. program for the past two years.

Councillor Column: Cr David Bowe It’s great to see our municipality getting out and about despite the current challenges due to the sheer amount of sickness in the community, either COVID, the flu or other viruses. I understand some people are still nervous about getting back out in a safe way and will get out and about when they're ready.

Point of difference every club needs

ith repetitive, albeit traditional, schedules fixing the region’s football and netball games to a Saturday afternoon, it is unsurprising a Sunday game garners this weekend’s sporting attention.

As sporting clubs deal with a myriad of financial and membership effects caused by the pandemic, Sunday’s football and netball games at Coughlin Park in Horsham between Horsham Saints and Horsham Demons are the point of difference every club needs. In April, Horsham Demons hosted the Wimmera Football Netball League’s Anzac Day night game at Horsham City Oval – played against their cross-shoulder Saints rivals. The floodlights lit up the arena with a substantial amount of fans, families, visitors and players from other clubs – normally

OPINION By Michael Scalzo unable to catch a league match other than their own – able to settle into an evening of regional sport. With the Saints a chance to cash in and enjoy the benefits of standalone games this Sunday, a similar possibility emerges – to the benefit of the region – and of course the coffers of the red, white and black. It is also a refreshing breakup to a winter sporting season that can roll along in monotonous fashion. Regional broadcasters get in on the action, too, with Sunday commentary, and you could bet the pubs might get busier than the

normal dinner rush, even if there is no public holiday this time to follow those hoping to cruise from the grandstand to the front bar for an extended stay. There no doubt remains logistical limitations to constant feature fixturing, and of course the unequal capacity for some clubs to host evening or Sunday games given lighting infrastructure limitations, crossorganisation clubroom-sharing situations, or members and players work commitments. But the option to explore the possibility of more regular league-wide features would be a financial opportunity many clubs, you would suspect, would jump at. And there is something exciting about breaking up the steady Saturday rotation of regional football and netball even if some people might argue if it ain’t broke… Sometimes you are unsure what needs attention until you’ve lifted up the bonnet and had a look.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Dead duck from the start

The recent letter to the editor from Mark Radford – ‘Plans continually stalled’, The Weekly Advertiser, April 27, 2022 – deserves some response. Firstly, Mark, the plans for the extensions to the existing basketball stadium were again a total waste of thousands and thousands of our ratepayers’ dollars on a project that was bound to fail. You were the head of the project control group which pushed and pushed to have the old stadium extended. It was a dead duck from the start with the closure of McBryde Street, the main arterial route for traffic to three schools in Horsham. The building sits in a flood zone, plus Horsham College was not going to use the stadium because the transport costs are too high. However, the big issue is you wouldn’t even seriously consider the Horsham West proposal where a new sporting stadium would be used five days, maybe seven days a week, and be maintained by Horsham College. In addition, a new sporting precinct would be created with sporting fields

and facilities for soccer, hockey, netball and perhaps another a football oval and even facilities for baseball and other sports, all linked together in the one sporting precinct. All this in a growth area of Horsham and all sports in the one precinct and not scatted all around Horsham as it sits now. Hopefully we all should see shortly the results of the new survey of the Horsham West sporting precinct, which I am sure will say this is where a new sporting precinct for Horsham is preferred. Robin Barber Horsham

Youth service too late

A plan to boost youth mental health services by 2026 is years too late for children who are suffering right now and could benefit from other immediate reforms that the State Government has refused to support. The government has trumpeted a plan to ‘scale up’ a mental health in primary schools program from 2023, but confirmed some schools will still have to wait another four years for a

mental health and wellbeing leader. At the same time, Labor MPs have twice blocked a move by the Liberals and Nationals in parliament to make reforms that will immediately unlock an extra 2000 counsellors for the schoolbased mental health workforce. It doesn’t matter how much money Labor throws at a problem, it won’t make a dent unless we address the shortage of mental health practitioners in our state. Growing evidence is showing that isolation and learning disruptions of Labor’s six lockdowns are still weighing heavily on Victorian kids. Delaying change for a further four years does nothing to help Victorian kids who are suffering poor mental health right now. The sector has been crying out for reform to address worker shortages for years – long before the COVID pandemic put more demand on Victoria’s fatigued and under-resourced mental health workforce. Three years ago, the Royal Commission made damning findings on the failure to plan for future demands on Victoria’s mental health workforce.

The One Cleaning Service • steam cleaning of carpets • upholstery • windows • tile & grout cleaning • stripping & sealing vinyl floors • commercial cleaning

More than half the recommendations called for urgent reform to boost the workforce. The damning assessment found there weren’t enough workers ‘across most professions’ leading to ‘staff burnout, low morale and deskilling’. Further, workforce shortages have powerful negative effects on access and quality of care, ultimately compromising outcomes for people living with mental illness, their families and carers. Emma Kealy Member for Lowan Shadow Mental Health Minister

Still time to vote

Interim results of a safety campaign asking drivers to name Victoria’s worst road have called out roads in eastern and central Victoria as the most dangerous, but there’s still more time to have your say. Topping driver’s votes for roads most in need of repair are the Great Alpine Road, which stretches from Wangaratta to Bairnsdale, and the Melbourne-Lancefield Road in central Victoria.

A campaign via the website, VicsWorstRoad.vote will develop a priority list to give to the Roads Minister. It’s an opportunity to contribute to saving lives in a year when the road toll is alarmingly high. Rough, potholed roads are putting Victorian lives at risk every day but the truth is this risk could be avoided if the State Government chose to properly invest in maintaining safe roads. Labor’s deep cuts to road maintenance mean our roads are littered with rough potholes and crumbling road shoulders that, in some instances, have left the road so narrow it’s impossible to safely overtake another car – let alone a truck. This road safety campaign hands the power back to the people who are driving our roads every day so we can properly prioritise the roads that are most desperately in need of repair.

Eligible clinical and non-clinical staff working in public health and for Ambulance Victoria will receive the one-off ‘Healthcare Worker Winter Retention and Surge Payment’ of $3000, with additional support for those who work night shift. Part-time, casual and new staff employed after July 1 and still employed on September 30 are eligible for a pro-rata rate.

Horsham Arts Council members are preparing to grace the stage in October for their production of Legally Blonde. Assistant director and choreographer Loucas Vettos said there were some new and returning faces in the cast and crew for the upcoming musical. “We have four or five people who will be doing their first show with us, a few people who have done lots of shows and some who have done a couple of shows with us,” he said. “It’s a good blend of people and the buzz around the cast for our first script read was awesome.” Joining Vettos in the production team is Erin Boutcher as director, Faye Johns as co-executive producer, Maddi Ostapiw as co-executive producer and co-vocal director, Stacey Brennan as co-vocal di-

rector and Alayna Toporsisek as assistant choreographer. Leading the show is Chloe Findlay as Elle Woods, with Jed Prouse as Emmett Forrest, Esther Fry as Paulette Bonafonté, Tim O’Donnell as Professor Callahan, Carl Gasparini as Warner Huntington III and Eleni Vettos as Vivienne Kensington. Toporsisek will play Brooke Wyndham, with Maddy McGennisken as Enid Hoops, Simon Dandy as Kyle O’Boyle, Kayla Wilson as Serena, Brittany Bates as Margot and Ella Ballinger as Pilar. The Delta Nu ensemble is Harriet Overman, Sienna Walsgott, Tilda Glascott, Asha McGennisken, Marni Saunders, Faith Eilola and Cella Atherton.

It’s such a feel-good show. “There’s always going to be something happening, with lots of singing and dancing. “We’re aiming for our first show to be on October 6 and it will run over two weekends.” – Abby Wilson

Horsham Police acting inspector Peter Robertson said while there had been an increase in several categories of reported offending during the previous 12 months, he hoped Horsham police’s efforts to facilitate crime reporting played a role in that increase. He noted there had been an increase in reported criminal-damage offences in Horsham region, with such offences often linked to burglary and family violence reports – as well as increases in breaches of bail conditions and family violence orders – the result of proactive investigations encouraging community reporting. “The community might be more willing to report damages that might otherwise go unreported due to tele-reporting, while in some instances those damages might come from cyclical offenders, perhaps also contributing to those increases,” he said. Victoria’s Crime Statistics Agency, CSA, criminal incidents reporting for March 2021 to March 2022, revealed the criminal total incidents in Horsham district had increased by 9.2 percent compared with the previous reporting period. While the data also showed the region’s principal offence sub-group, breach of family violence orders, had decreased, the region’s second and third most-reported offence sub-groups, criminal damage and bail condition breaches, had increased. Statewide, there was an 11.2 percent decrease in criminal incidents. “We need to continue to focus on offending

that causes the most harm to the community,” Mr Robertson said. “Community safety drives everything Victoria police do. There has been an increase in some categories of offending and we encourage people to report them. “Hopefully the police, or the community, have facilitated reporting during this period. “We made an effort to facilitate reporting of family violence during the lockdown period and with Horsham’s Orange Door facility opening in August, we encourage people to contact these services.” Mr Robertson said he was aware of a statewide increase in electronic deceptions as offenders sought advantages from an increase in online activity during COVID-19 restrictions. “It is no surprise the community has moved significantly to online shopping and opportunistic thieves saw chances to mimic legitimate institutions and deceive vulnerable members of our community,” he said. Mr Robertson said senior residents represented a significant proportion of electronic deception victims. “Senior members of our community are used to dealing with institutions in a different way than some people might do now,” he said. “When they receive phone calls, emails or texts from institutions like banks or Medicare, for example, they trust them. “People should remain mindful no legitimate institutions should ask for your personal details or passwords over the phone. “If people believe they are victims of a scam or an attempt to deceive them, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, ACCC, have a scam-watch website that can be helpful. “People should also contact police on 131 444 for assistance and get an investigation going.”

NEW ADDITION: Artist Alex Sanson with his sculpture, ‘Liquid Arborescence’ at the south end of Firebrace Street, Horsham, beside the Wimmera River. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Sculpture key part of plan An art-project launch beside the Wimmera River has formed part of Horsham Rural City Council’s riverside revival and broader link to the city’s central activity district. The sculpture, part of the council’s Riverfront Activation Project, will integrate into the City to River Masterplan, with sheltered seating, a pergola and a cafe site touted to join the new art piece. Taradale artist Alex Sanson, who crafted the artwork, said his 5.4-metre-tall stainless-steel sculpture, ‘Liquid Arborescence’, at the Firebrace Street and Wimmera River junction, was born from a life-long fascination of rivers and Wednesday, June 29, 2022

trees. “I hope it’s a reminder of the great value these essential elements of inland eco-systems can offer, as focal points for life, meeting and community, as well as being a home for all the myriad life that is nurtured by them,” he said. The council has planned for the new site to become a key community meeting place and the start of a riverfront exploration journey. The project, funded alongside federal and state government contributions, will also include educational material, cultural-heritage information and post-settlement history signs, set to be integrated into the location. www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

Symbolic sculpture on show A new art sculpture created from repurposed and reclaimed materials sourced from the Wimmera is standing in the foyer at Grains Innovation Park, Horsham. Greening Australia commissioned Horsham-based artist Michael Moerkerk to create an art piece to commemorate their 40th anniversary and a long-standing partnership with Bank Australia. Moerkerk created ‘The Money Tree’ as a tangible symbol of the value of nature, and the cost of not recognising it. A piece of timber from Wartook, rescued from an ancient red gum burnt during 2014 Northern Grampians fires, forms part of the tree and symbolises the value of nature. Copper coins surround the timber to show the importance of a nature-based economy and how it can nurture and work in harmony with the environment to create a sustainable future. The ‘chain-mailed prince of trees’ THE VALUE OF NATURE: Artist Michael Moerkerk shows his ‘The Money Tree’ sculpture to Horsham West and is supported by a steel base in the Haven Primary School students, from left, Ella Kirkwood, Tilly Maher, Sila Aytar, Ryder Hallam and Riley Robson shape of Australia. at Grains Innonvation Park.

Bureau highlights FIVE-DAY forecast ° ° ° 13 13 20 12 La Niña changes A

BY ABBY WALTER

bove-average wet conditions are predicted to continue after a positive start to the cropping season for Wimmera farmers.

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has announced the end of the 2021-22 La Niña. In the tropical Pacific, the status has changed to La Niña watch, with a 50 percent chance of a La Niña event forming again during 2022. Bureau of Meteorology head of long-range forecasting Andrew Watkins said the bureau had been monitoring the trend of a weakening La Niña over several weeks. “A La Niña watch does not change the outlook of above-average rainfall for most of Australia over the coming months,” he said. “The bureau’s long-range outlook remains wetter than average, consistent with model outlooks from other global forecast centres, reflecting a range of climate drivers including a developing negative Indian Ocean Dipole and warmer than average waters around Australia. “We’re also aware the models suggest we could go back into La Niña later in the year, and hence we’ve moved to La Niña watch.” Dr Watkins said back-to-back La Niña’s were not uncommon. “A three-year La Niña is less common. We

have only seen that happen three times since the middle of last century,” he said. In 2022, rain totals to June 24 were 217.8 millimetres at Horsham, compared with 138.8 millimetres during the same period in 2021. The historic average rain for Horsham between the start of the year and the end of June was 165.2 millimetres. Grain Growers Australia chairman and Quambatook farmer Brett Hosking said farmers had seen a good opening to the cropping season with steady rain. “In most cases, crops are up and out of the ground,” he said. Mr Hosking said farmers had also been conscious of the cost of cropping this year, with prices of fertiliser, fuel and other inputs. “Farmers get more confident the more it rains, but there is still some nervousness if the season falls over,” he said. “The signs are promising for a good crop this year as we are certainly not moving into drought or El Niño conditions.” Mr Hosking said the prediction towards a possible third consecutive year of La Niña did give farmers some optimism for next season as well. “We all know though that a La Niña increases the chance of above-average rain, but does not guarantee it,” he said.

A threatened greater glider, one of many key species Greening Australia focuses on, peeps out of a hollow and cockatoo sits on a branch showing what may be lost with inaction to protect nature. The small branches support a canopy of 1843 hand-beaten copper leaves, which used more than 30 metres of old copper pipe and 1200 metres of stripped reclaimed copper wire. ‘The Money Tree’ took more than 350 hours to complete, stands 3.5 metres tall, has a canopy spread of 3.2 metres and weighs in at 240 kilograms. ‘The Money Tree’ was on display for a week in early April at the forecourt of the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne. The sculpture is now standing in the foyer of the information centre at Grains Innovation Park on Natimuk Road, Horsham, for a limited time where the public can view it between 9am and 1pm on weekdays. sponsored sponsoredbyby

ACTION: Ambulance Victoria paramedic Matt Pearce with Murtoa resident Riley Keel. Mr Keel was 17 and had completed first-aid training a fortnight before he performed CPR on an elderly man who was slumped over his gopher scooter in 2017.

Murtoa a ‘heart safe community’ Murtoa has been classified a ‘heart safe community’. Ambulance Victoria paramedic Matt Pearce said the Heart Safe Community Program had built community resilience across the past year. “The expansion of this state-wide program, a joint initiative between Ambulance Victoria and the Heart Foundation, has built the confidence and skills in local communities so that they can step in and provide life-saving assistance if someone is in cardiac arrest,” he said. Cardiac arrest happens when a person’s heart stops beating and stops pumping blood effectively around the body. “While bystanders alone will never replace an ambulance service, equipping people with skills to start the chain of survival – starting chest compressions or CPR and using an automated external defibrillator, AED – does save lives,” Mr Pearce said. An AED is used to deliver a shock to help

restore normal heart rhythm following a cardiac arrest. Seven AEDs have been installed in Murtoa across the past year, located at The Stick Shed, railway station, police station, swimming pool, bowls club, neighbourhood house and football oval. Mr Pearce encouraged people to register with the GoodSAM – Smartphone Activated Medic – App. “GoodSAM is a life-saving smartphone app that connects Victorians in cardiac arrest with responders and defibrillators in the critical minutes before paramedics arrive,” he said. Responders only receive an alert if they are close to the person in cardiac arrest and are given the address of the patient, along with the location of the closest defibrillator, if one is available, so they can take action before an ambulance arrives. Ambulance Victoria hosted an AED training session for people in Murtoa last week.

New partnership unites resources

Still offe ring the same reat service g

“We will have a larger voice with a combined platform and the resources to nail down on the most vulnerable areas and health conditions within our community”

he Wimmera’s Primary Care Partnership organisations are transitioning to a new model.

Wimmera and Grampians PCPs are two of 28 PCPs statewide to complete a transition to health services operating Local Public Health Units, LPHUs, from this week. The Grampians Wimmera Southern Mallee LPHU encompasses the shires of Ararat Rural City, Central Goldfields, Ballarat, Hepburn, Horsham Rural City, Moorabool, Northern Grampians, Pyrenees, West Wimmera and Yarriambiack. The Department of Health says the transition offers an opportunity to improve population health outcomes by ‘consolidating skills, knowledge and governance across a catchment area’. LPHUs will use transitioned resources to work with partners including local government, community health, women’s health and Aboriginal health organisations to provide a more co-ordinated, integrated and tailored approach to health promotion and prevention. The department will reinvest all PCP program funding into LPHUs. The transition comes after years of a long period of funding uncertainty. Wimmera PCP executive officer Geoff Witmitz will transition to the role of Wimmera Southern Mallee prevention and population health manager.

WE HAVE M O V E D

● ● ● ●

– Geoff Witmitz

He is one of three regional prevention and population health managers within the Grampians Wimmera Southern Mallee LPHU. Wimmera PCP foregoes its name. Existing team members maintain their roles, and services and programs will continue. “This is an opportunity to continue programs and deliver outcomes for our community,” Mr Witmitz said. “We will have a larger voice with a combined platform and the resources to nail down on the most vulnerable areas and health conditions within our community.” Wimmera PCP will operate within the organisational structure of Grampians Health, with accountability to the Department of Health for prevention outcomes through its Public Health Division. The PCP program was designed more than 20 years ago and faced a Health Department review in 2019.

Certificate II in Kitchen Operations students cooked for a sold-out event at the Wimmera Trade Training Centre in Horsham last week. They served diners an entrée of pumpkin gnocchi or pea and ham soup, a main course of chicken ballotine with apricot farce, lamb shoulder or vegetable wellington, finishing with orange cake or rhubarb mille-feuille for dessert.

Members of the public can attend lunch events during term three. Information will be available via the college’s Facebook page.

‘My Earth’ Finalist: Christine Cobbe

y Earth is home, a growing place, its dirt is all colours with no discrimination

there. My Earth sustains and it can kill. It can ground you, pardon the pun, and My Earth holds everything. My Earth grows and it grows all sorts of life. It is beautiful, it is dirty, and it is mud, which is utilised into clay for pottery. My Earth gives birth. My Earth is a pleasant wonder: it holds all sorts of wonders of the world, all over the world. My Earth holds our rivers, trees, oceans, seas, plants, animals, reptiles, insects and humans. It holds our dwellings, our creations, our rubbish, our pollution and our dead. My Earth is an enigma, with professional people, always unearthing new ancient discoveries. My Earth then, changes or makes history. My Earth I love, without it, I would not survive or anything that is alive on it. My Earth has sands, from the rivers, from the seas and oceans. With the sands, glass is made and pottery for us to use and create with. My Earth has clay, dirt, mud and with this, pottery is made, sculptures are made and delight is had from creating with clay for young, old and all. My Earth holds the smallest of creatures to the largest of animals on the Earth. From insects, reptiles, land animals, sea creatures, and humans. My Earth we make mud bricks to build homes. Some land birds need to eat some of the tiny gravel in the Earth to make the outer shell of their eggs. My Earth can be flooded when there is too much rain and the rivers cannot hold

that amount of water. It can kill at this time. My Earth struggles with the population on its surface, accumulated in different, separate, places, countries. My Earth has beautiful noises, from the wind, birds, all the animals, the rivers, seas and oceans. The trees, the insects and all the humans. Some noise pollution and some beautiful music, all intermingled at times, still holding many secrets and buried answers, many things ready to be discovered, for good or bad. My Earth has treasures, such as gold, silver, copper and much more. Rocks and stones, opals, crystals, diamonds, emeralds, jade, sapphires and so much more. My Earth through her sands in the rivers, seas and oceans, filter the waters in them and keep it clean. The seas and oceans that hold treasures, like pearls, hidden treasure in old shipwrecks, yet to be discovered. My Earth holds all our food, on the surface, in the seas and oceans. Also food in the rivers, on most of the trees and plants. My Earth is wonderful, how I love it and I look after what is around me to the best of my ability. If everyone could do the same, many do, we would have a much nicer, cleaner planet. My Earth, if it could cry, it would flood the Earth, like in the days of Noah, from all the people who do not care what happens to it, or all of the human’s rubbish and the humans in it. My Earth is ours to look after and cherish. We are not doing a very good job looking after My Earth; we fall very short of doing a good job. My Earth, look at what it does for all of us and everything living on it. Can we do better for the Earth? Can we improve and care more for My Earth? Our Earth?

‘My Wimmera’ Finalist: Kerryn Batson

returned to the place I often visited as a child, where a hot summer wind blew across acres of golden wheat, barley and rye crops; as far as the eye could see.

Tall silos marked our approach to towns and we loved being the first one to say ‘I can see a silo!’ Familiar sights and smells stirred old memories as I drove through the quiet Wimmera town with someone who never had a strong connection to his family. As I wandered into the old newsagents, for a moment it seemed I had stepped back in time. Everything there was the same as when I had been there in my childhood. The draught horse was still standing and the rotunda where I used to play was unchanged. I sensed my ancestors were calling to me from their graves. There had been a drought in the area for 10 years, splitting the once hard-packed soil around old burial plots. Statuesque tombs were crumbled and their metal surrounds leaned sideways or inward towards the earth.

The once fertile farming region was now a reddish dustbowl. Even the lawn on the main street, where locals and visitors used to sit under palm trees, was mostly dead from lack of rain and the severe water restrictions. I came back not long after to settle in the area. On my daily walks I climbed down into the small ponds and puddles were all that was left of the river. Dead leaves rustled gnarled trees stirred by an occasional breath of wind. There was no birdlife around anymore to provide an atmosphere of life on the river. One night it started to rain, and continued to rain for several days. Each morning when I looked out the window of my van, the ground that had been brown and dusty, was showing fresh new growth. The river filled and overflowed an already sodden area throughout the park and other low parts of the town. As the water receded, the earth was covered with a lush carpet of vibrant green. I was amazed to see the river so wild and free-flowing. Corellas returned in great numbers, then the rosellas, and magpies. It was a beautiful sight to see the earth finally refreshed.

Horsham’s Art is… festival, with The Weekly Advertiser and ACE Radio, have partnered for a ‘My Earth’ creative writing competition as part of this year’s event. Entrants have penned a thought piece relating to the theme of ‘My Earth’. Finalists and winners will have their submission printed in The Weekly Advertiser. Today’s edition publishes entries from three finalists – Kerryn Batson, Geoff Dair and Christine Cobbe. A winner and highly commended piece in an ‘open section’, along with a junior winner, will be published in next week’s edition. A recording of their submissions will be included at www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

am at rest. Comfortable and secure, the earth keeps me warm. It keeps me safe. It keeps me informed. The vibrations tell me of what is happening in the world above me. Things are more intuitive now. When I walked on the land, I watched with wary trepidation as it changed. I often thought I was the only one who noticed. Most didn’t seem to care. Their lives too busy earning money to buy a bigger house and bigger trinkets and trophies to fill the bigger house. I watched as the golden plains were quietly replaced with rows of little boxes, neatly stacked next to each other to make use of every available piece of earth. One by one they went and no one noticed. The change was insidious rather than abrupt. It was surreptitious yet was occurring for all to see. I am at rest. Comfortable and secure. I can feel the vibration of someone walking above. It is faint, almost imperceptible. Someone is visiting, perhaps to lay

flowers or mourn and pay respect. The nuanced presence gives me pleasure. A new road was needed for the people in the boxes to travel to and from their new cubic utopia. Trees were cleared, rivers diverted and homes relocated. Nothing can get in the way. It is all needed for the greater good. Then the people in the boxes wanted new shops to go to that were close by. They did not want to travel to the old shops. So the creep continued. Wheat fields and orchards become car parks made of bitumen. Grasslands and swamps were next. Reclaimed was the euphemism as though we were regaining something that was lost and always belonged to us; even though it never did. Shopping malls were required so the people in the boxes could have jobs that were close by. Progress is inexorable and unquenchable. It cannot be stopped. It must not be stopped. Everything is better the more of nature we wipe away. The earth could not protest or fight back. It was there to sustain us and nurture us whatever way we saw fit. No one seemed to notice that it was straining and

yearning to breathe. It could only meekly comply with the will of its masters. It could not give advice or caution our actions. But now I rest, ensconced in safety, far away from the trickling modernity. Yet, I can feel the vibrations growing stronger and more frequent. The earth is speaking to me with an increasing voice, warning me of the end of my bucolic serenity. I wonder if those who walk above can still see what I once did? Gum trees and mountains as far as the horizon, silhouetted against the orange of the afternoon sun. Can they feel the crispness of the evening air as it cools against the water? Or do they see merely a neighbour in the adjacent driveway; parking his car on his synthetic lawn as they exchange a wave. I feel less at rest. Less comfortable. Less secure. The vibrations are deafening, unrelenting and unsettling. Is my resting place no longer sacred and sacrosanct? Is it no longer permanent? Am I now in the way? Do I have to be moved from my earthly home? Are they finally coming for me?

ORIGINAL SCORE: Art is… festival patrons enjoyed a night of music with Nick Shirrefs and his band for silent film Zemlya. Shirrefs composed the score for the 110-minute film, which translates to Earth in English. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Art is… entertainment Musical talent from across the Wimmera and beyond will take to various stages in Horsham during the Art is… festival. Horsham musician Will Netherway will perform the soundtrack to silent film Zemlya, Earth, on Friday. Netherway said he watched the film several times to understand the themes and emotions of the scenes before creating the score. “I have a bunch of instruments on my computer so I was writing and making it at the same time,” he said. “It was very different making music for 110 minutes, compared with a four-minute track. It’s been both a challenging and enjoyable experience and I’m keen to see how it transpires during the performance.” Danny Walsh Banned is collaborating on the ‘Concert for the Earth’ on Saturday. Lead singer Danny Walsh said since the

band released its album, ‘In The Wimmera’, it had received a great response to come and perform in the region. He said the band would use the opportunity to debut a new song. “I have been consumed with researching a local story that I have been interested in about William Wimmera,” he said. “I’ve been learning about it and after speaking with Art is... organisers, I thought it would be great for us to make this song and perform it at the event. “We are looking forward to collaborating with Indigenous people and liaising with Uncle Ron Marks to look at incorporating parts of the Wergia language in the song. “It’s a work in progress and will have a special focus during the show.” Art is… FUNdamental Earth festival will conclude on Sunday.

Dawn’s positivity a lasting legacy

SCHOOL HOLIDAY

ID W E R TO

C O T S

or 94 years, Horsham resident Dawn Hobbs cared for her family, and her community. She has left behind a strong legacy in the Wimmera.

Born Myra Dawn Mills on April 14, 1928, Dawn grew up on the family farm at Byrneville, with her parents Ethel and Alf Mills, older brother Ron and younger siblings Ian, Coral and Iris. Dawn used to walk or ride her pony, Micky, to Byrneville State School in her early years of schooling, before starting at Horsham High School at the end of year-eight. She attended the school for two years, fostering her talent on the piano and dreaming of becoming a nurse. When her father died in 1944, a 16-year-old Dawn chose to return to the farm to help her mother, at home with five children aged between three and 19. During this time she took up sewing and would dress her younger sisters in beautifully made clothes. Despite hard times on the farm during the Second World War, Dawn loved to have fun dancing and attended dances across the district. With her friend Joyce Wirth, nee Petersen, Dawn trained a debutante set at the ‘Sailor’s Home Hall’ at Murra Warra. It was at one of the many dances Dawn attended she met her future husband, Ken Hobbs, who was from a local farming family. Dawn and Ken were engaged on her 21st birthday and married on February 17, 1951, at Horsham Methodist Church. During their first year of marriage, the couple lived with the Hobbs family, before moving into a new house in Edith Street, Horsham. They lived there for four years, during which time Greg and Jenny were born. They then moved to the Wimmera Bridge Service Station, where they worked long hours manning the station and also a taxi service they purchased, and three more children, Ian, Peter and Barry were born. In 1960 they sold the service station and built and moved into a large family home in Baillie Street, with the taxi service operating from a front office. Mrs Hobbs was one of the first women in Victoria to achieve a taxi driver’s license and the business was thriving. Stuart, Leanne, Daryl and Sue were born to complete their family of 11. Mrs Hobbs was a Sunday school teacher and pianist and worked tirelessly for school, kinder and Girl Guide committees. She was known across the region for her sponge cakes, cooking and sewing skills. As her children began to grow up and leave home, she took on part-time work at Bennett Road Kindergarten as an assistant, then at McCallum’s store and at Magic Needle, where she worked for many years. Mrs Hobbs also took up croquet as a new pas-

Always ready to learn something new, the couple built an indoor heated pool in the 1980s and Mrs Hobbs decided that, in her 50s, she would learn to swim. She later enjoyed time with her grandchildren in the pool. In December 1991, Mr Hobbs died after a struggle with cancer and while Mrs Hobbs continued to live in the family home for some time, she eventually found the house and garden too big to manage on her own. Son Daryl built Mrs Hobbs a unit in Delville Street, where her many family members were often seen visiting. Mrs Hobbs volunteered for Cancer Council fundraising events, organising and cooking for Biggest Morning Teas, spending days selling daffodils and raffle tickets in Horsham Plaza, and, together with Leanne, helped produce a fantastic ‘Cup day’ lunch for many years. In 1994, Mrs Hobbs was awarded Horsham Citizen of the Year for her tireless work. She was also on the Hamilton Lamb Hall committee and helped run fortnightly dances. Mrs Hobbs enjoyed attending Probus and classes at U3A, and lunches and coffees with a large group of friends. She continued to sew, cook and bake for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. In early 2021, Mrs Hobbs moved into full-time care at Trinity Manor at Sunnyside, where she made many friends and spent her days avidly reading the papers, doing the daily crosswords, checking the football scores and knitting her wonderful patchwork blankets. Mrs Hobbs died on Sunday, June 12, after a heart attack and many of her family were able to visit her for their goodbyes. Her hard work, dedication and kindness will be remembered by many in the community for years to come.

Barber farewells six decades of style BY MICHAEL SCALZO

hen people find a barber they like, they often stick to them like glue.

So after 62 years on the job, it is no stretch to imagine the thousands of Wimmera men who know Peter Pickering as their man – as ‘their’ barber. Mr Pickering will lay down the scissors and park his clippers this week, calling time on six-decades of old-school craftsmanship, and time on his service to generations of Wimmera men in need of a cut. His McLachlan Street shop, familiar for its solitary red-leather barber chair and collection of Richmond Football Club memorabilia, is last in a line of five different Pickering-owned Horsham shops, with ‘Peter’s Barber Shop’ printed on the door. Mr Pickering said he considered so many of his customers his friends. “They are no longer just customers – they turn into friends,” he said. “They have been coming to me for most of their lives. I know who they are, where they live, what their dog’s name is. They are my friends.” A 15-year-old Peter lined up for a haircut the week before Christmas at a barber shop at Murtoa, and it was then he thought the barber life could be the one for him. Mr Pickering said his father would not let him leave school until he had a job. After convincing his father to meet with ‘Jack’, the Murtoa barber, a young Peter started his apprenticeship, just two weeks later. “Haircuts were six shillings and I earnt four pounds a week,” he said. “I would spend one day a week at

THANK YOU: Horsham barber Peter Pickering is retiring after more than 60 years in the trade. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER The Melbourne School of Hairdressing, before qualifying as a barber in 1963. “I finished up my work at Murtoa and moved to Ballarat to work with six other qualified barbers.” While working in Ballarat, Mr Pickering met his wife Patricia, and after a stint in Alice Springs, he secured his own barbershop at Minyip with an attached three-bedroom flat. When things started to slow down at Minyip, he moved his business to

his first Horsham barber shop. “I have cut generations of men’s hair in the region,” Mr Pickering said. “There was one kid back in Murtoa when I was doing my apprenticeship, he was about three-years-old, and I couldn’t get him to sit still – his mum had brought him in five times by this stage. “The boss said to the boy’s mum that it might be easier if she waited outside for a bit, which she did. “Then we laid him on his guts on

the floor, and I held him there while my boss cut his hair. About 35 years later, that grown-up boy came into my Horsham shop and said, ‘you won’t know me, but you gave me my first haircut and I hoped you could give my son his first, too’. “I said to him, ‘do you remember your first haircut?’, he said ‘no’ – I said, ‘then that’s good!’ Mr Pickering said every day someone was in his shop talking about something a little different.

“I love that my barber shop can be a social catch-up,” he said. “I spoke to a woman who brought her dad in for a haircut with me. “Later she told me he had been at home, feeling a bit down, so she brought him here where there were a few other blokes already, just mucking around, just talking and getting their hair cut. “She told me how happy the afternoon made him. “People forgot sometimes how much it can cheer up an older man’s life – a nice cut and a chat with other guys.” From next week, Mr Pickering, with more time on his hands, says travel is on the cards. “A trip to the war memorial in Canberra, a trip to Bright and the Kimberley, as well as one through South Australia’s peninsulas,” he said. “I worked my first 10 years without a holiday, but then I started taking a few days off between Christmas and new year, and now that’s led to taking three weeks off. “Now I have even more time up my sleeve than that.” Mr Pickering said once people found out he was ‘packing up’, his long-time customers started slipping him tips. “They tell me ‘thank you for your service, thank you for looking after me’,” he said. But signing off after a lifetime of work, Mr Pickering thanked the region he had become embedded in. “In all my 54 good years as a barber in Horsham and more than 62 years cutting hair overall – the best part of it all was the people I met along the way,” he said. ‘So, thank you, one and all.”

Expo wins applause BY ABBY WALTER

immera Southern Mallee Local Learning and Employment Network Careers Expo program manager Vanessa O’Loughlin says she is pleased with the success of the day.

“We had more people attend than we were expecting,” she said. “We hosted about 2000 young people, job seekers and career changers, which is a huge number. “Exhibitors were all very excited and happy that they had terrific engagement from the crowd. “The crowd was in such good spirits. It was an amazing day.” Horsham College year-nine student Mitchell Mills said he was looking at completing a schoolbased apprenticeship in his senior school years. “My favourite part of the day was chatting with Heath Martin at the O’Connors stand,” he said. “I wouldn’t mind doing a schoolbased apprenticeship with O’Connors as a diesel mechanic. “In the future, I wouldn’t mind doing something with mechatronics or digital tech, because I like technology. “It’s good to be able to come here and see something new and have fun. “I’ve driven the digger, and I’ve been in the virtual header cab, so it’s been a good day.” Dimboola Memorial Secondary College year-11 student Tilli Menzel said there were lots of interesting future career options

opportunities and career pathways are going to be here in two to three years. “I heard about 250 new jobs could be created over the next two to three years – that’s fantastic.” Mrs O’Loughlin said she was ready to plan for a big event next year. “I’m a big advocate for continuous improvement and I have been speaking to exhibitors and they are, as well. I just hope we keep growing and growing,” she said. “I was speaking to an exhibitor who said we are up there with some of the metropolitan expos as far as numbers, collaboration and networking. “If we keep focussing on the things that we do well and improve on what we get back in our feedback surveys that will go out soon, I think we can grow even bigger to support more rural and regional schools, young people, job seekers and career changers.” Department of Education and Training job skills and pathways manager Andrew Hardiman said attending the expo gave him a chance to see what students wanted to learn. “A big part of my portfolio is helping students stay in school longer by trying trades, by doing vocational education and training as a means to finish year 12,” he said. “This event is one of the biggest in the state. It is incredibly well organised by Wimmera Southern Mallee LLEN and the co-sponsors, so we appreciate their support.” • Broad agriculture appeal, page 41

and universities to look at during the expo. “My favourite activity was bricklaying,” she said. “After I finish school, I want to do something in the veterinary field and now I’ve been able to focus on what do to get there with the different businesses here.” Horsham College year-nine student Darcy Both said driving the digger was his favourite part of the day. “I want to do something in engineering when I finish school and after today, I think it is something I will continue looking at,” he said. “It was pretty cool coming and seeing all the different types of work that you can do.”

Interaction key

Mrs O’Loughlin said she thought the best part of the day was seeing the level of interaction between exhibitors and attendees. “Coming off two years of virtual events and young people not having the opportunity to be in front of all these experts, it was hard to say how the interaction from students was going to go,” she said. “I’m so pleased everyone has been brave and asked the important questions. It’s been terrific. “We had 120 people attend a seminar with Ben Brooksby, The Naked Farmer seminar, which was amazing. “Careers in mining has been a really interesting feature throughout the day, with a lot of people talking about mining in our area and what

Order book open Prices up on MY23 Subaru Forester

ubaru Australia has secured 2023 Forester stock, which can now be ordered for delivery during the fourth quarter of 2022.

The MY23 Forester is otherwise identical to the current facelifted model that first went on sale in October 2021 – but like almost everything else at the moment, prices are up, with Subaru blaming costs associated with production and logistics. Entry-level pricing has risen by $1900, with the 2.5i variant now priced at $37,890 before on-road costs. The mid-spec 2.5i-L and Hybrid L are also up by $1900, while customers will pay $1950 more for the 2.5i Premium.

With MY22 Foresters selling out after being subject to delays of up to five months, buyers of the mid-size SUV can now order the MY23. The model comes with a barely noticeable update, including an autodimming rearview mirror to 2.5i Sport AWD, 2.5i-S AWD and Hybrid S AWD variants, and Sapphire Blue Pearl replacing a Dark Blue Pearl option for 2.5i Sport AWD.

The addition of the electrochromatic mirrors to the 2.5i Sport, 2.5i-S and Hybrid S is offset by the price jumping $2150, meaning the petrol-electric range-topper is now priced at $49,350 before on road costs. It is worth noting the Forester was unaffected by price rises in May 2022, which saw the rest of Subaru’s SUV range rise by $800. At the time, Subaru Australia’s website showed the MY22 Forester was unavailable for purchase, with a company spokesperson admitting it was sold out.

Interested customers were encouraged to speak to their local Subaru retailer about registering their interest for the upcoming MY23 Forester. The Australian Subaru website has since been updated to reflect the modelyear changeover. The car customers will now be buying includes features that were new to the MY22 Forester, such as a more comprehensive EyeSight safety and driver-assist technology suite as standard on the facelifted Forester and bigger touchscreens in lower-spec variants.

Middle and higher-spec Forester variants come with adaptive headlights, and gesture-controlled airconditioning, with a redesigned instrument cluster fitted to mid and high-spec petrol variants. Available powertrains include a 136kW-239Nm 2.5-litre flat-four petrol engine, and 110kW-196Nm 2.0L petrol e-Boxer hybrid featuring a 12.3kW-66Nm electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack. Respective combined fuel consumption ratings are 7.4 litres per 100km and 6.7L-100km.

Czinger C21 a crowd pleaser

nder development for a few years, the revolutionary Czinger 21C hyper-car made its international debut last week at a London Concours car show on the fashionable Savile Row, that coincided with Goodwood Festival of Speed.

terised by automated design and optimisation software, patented additive manufacturing driven processes, high accuracy automated assembly and novel performance materials. The 21C is the first vehicle constructed using this system. It’s been described as new millennium ‘coachbuilding’ technology that enables Czinger’s design and engineering team to create new directions in performance and design. Each 21C is assembled by a group

of technician-artisans from the fit and finish of each part extending from seat brackets to suspension components to hand-crafted carbon fibre and multilayer paintwork. With fighter jet styling and seating arrangement, the 21C driver sits in the middle of the air piercing cockpit with a ‘co-pilot’ behind, the same as a motorcycle rider and pillion, for benefits to the car’s balance, weighting and aerodynamics. Lukas Czinger designed the rakish

body by ‘aero sculpting’ its form then manufactured the body from carbon fibre. The chassis is 3D printed and assembled using various composites and composite parts. Computer engineered, printed and assembled; the chassis houses an in-house designed strong hybrid powertrain that drives all four wheels. Power comes from a 2.9-litre, twinturbo V8 custom made-by Czinger – that delivers a whopping 246kW per litre and revs to 11,000rpm. Add

LMCT: 7944

Judging by public reaction, the partially 3D-printed, carbon-fibre bodied, composite chassis masterpiece created something of a sensation in the heart of London’s fashion district. The 1250hp US-made Czinger stole the show despite stiff competition from various Ferraris, McLarens and Bentleys among a bevy of legendary classics. The excitement in London was attributed to the 21C’s inline seating arrangement, bespoke petrol V8 hybrid electric powertrain under lithe bodywork, strikingly styled Alcantara interior and butterfly doors combining to create a visual tour-de-force. Czinger 21C is the brainchild of car enthusiast and company co-founder Lukas Czinger who agreed his creation ‘pushes the boundaries of design, performance and sustainability’. The 21C is manufactured using newly developed technology tools that are integrated into a patented production system. The manufacturing team created this advanced production system charac-

to that two 800-volt electric motors modulated by torque vectoring and you end up with a frighteningly quick and fast vehicle that can double down and cruise in full EV mode for 20km. The V8 features a racing style flat plane crankshaft and is mid-mounted, while those 800-volt electric traction motors drive each front wheel. A seven-speed sequential transaxle gearbox with a hydraulically actuated multi-plate clutch complete the entire drivetrain; again, all designed, developed and built by Czinger. Czinger has been able to keep weight down on the 21C to a respectable 1250kg delivering a perfect synergy between weight and power output as both are numerically 1250 – a 1:1 horsepower to weight ratio. Acceleration approaches dragster realms as the 21C clocks a 0-100kmh sprint in 1.9 seconds. Top speed is 400kmh plus. Proving the 21C is not all show and no go, Lukas Czinger himself set production car lap records at Laguna Seca and the Circuit of the Americas, beating the McLaren P1 by no less than 6.0 seconds. He says he will make just 80 examples of the 21C at a price expected to be in the range of $A3.5-million each. They will be built during the next 18 months. – Peter Barnwell

M3 Touring headed Down Under

MW Australia has announced it will introduce its M3 Touring wagon to Australia from the first quarter of 2023.

Offered exclusively in Competition guise, and with a blistering 375kW650Nm turbocharged six under the bonnet, the M3 Touring can clear the standard sprint in 3.6 seconds and hit 200kmh in just 12.9 seconds. Top whack is listed at 280kmh. The latest BMW M3 Touring launches as the Bavarian marque continues its 50th anniversary celebrations of the sporting M division. To date, the brand has released celebratory models including the M4 CSL and iX M60 and will later this year reveal an all new M2, tipped to be the most powerful ever built. Australia continues to be among the world’s leading markets for BMW M cars with one in five BMW’s sold wearing an M badge. It is expected the M3 Touring will further that tradition, BMW saying the model will offer a winning combination of performance, practicality, dynamic flair and agility. BMW says the M3 Touring is clearly differentiated from standard 3 Series Touring models by a muscular exterior design package, which combines cleanly designed surfaces with functional aerodynamic elements and M-specific design cues to provide the

LEADING MARKET: The first-ever 280kmh super station wagon is headed to Australian BMW showrooms early next year. car with ‘additional presence’. Those design flourishes include a vertically arranged frameless BMW kidney grille, large side air intakes, bolstered wheel arches and prominently extended side skirts. The front quarter panels feature M gills while the exhaust outlets are integrated into the rear apron. All M3 Touring examples feature a high-gloss black roof irrespective of paint colour.

Up front, the M3 Touring’s TwinPower Turbo 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder engine features a lubrication and cooling system designed with track use in mind, and an M-specific exhaust system with electrically actuated flaps to adjust sound levels to the driver’s preference. The powerplant is paired as standard to an eight-speed M Steptronic automatic transmission with three

gearshift programs or full manual mode, and channels power to the road via BMW’s M xDrive all-wheel drive system and Active M rear differential. Suspended by a familiar doublejoint front and five-link rear arrangement, BMW says the M3 Touring faced an intensive tuning program on race circuits, country roads and urban routes during development to ensure

‘an ideal blend of sports performance and smooth ride comfort’. Adaptive M suspension with electronically controlled damping and variable ratio M Servotronic steering are also found in the M3 Touring, alongside an M Compound braking system and staggered 19-inch front and 20-inch rear lightweight alloys. Inside, the M3 Touring features many of the technology updates announced for the recently released 3 Series LCI including the expansive curved display panel, which combines a 12.3-inch information display and 14.9-inch control display, with M-specific widgets, M-specific headup display, tri-zone climate control, LED ambient lighting package, BMW Live Cockpit Plus, and revised BMW iDrive functionality with BMW ID, My BMW app, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Electrically adjustable M Sport seats with memory function and Merino leather come as standard, while M Carbon sport seats are offered optionally. The practical rear space of the M3 Touring offers a 40:20:40 folding rear bench and a cargo capacity of between 500 and 1510 litres. The new BMW M3 Touring will arrive in Australia early next year with full pricing and specifications to be confirmed in the lead up to its launch. – Matt Brogan

ith mass amounts of grain moved in the 2021-22 harvest and similar tonnes predicted in 2022-23, truck drivers are reminded to accurately weigh loads and avoid roadside dumping of grain.

Agriculture Victoria grains biosecurity officer Jim Moran said dumped grain provided an untreated, unmonitored, unmanaged and attractive site for stored grain insects and disease pests to thrive and spread into neighbouring paddocks and farms, creating a significant biosecurity risk. “Dumped grain can be a food source for birds and vermin such as mice and wild pigs, which build in number and infest and damage nearby crops and grain storages,” he said. “Vermin can also carry seed to other areas where it becomes a weed or vector for pests and diseases. “These illegal grain dumps are often found along transport corridors to and from ports. They provide an ideal pathway for hitchhiker pests to make their way from an urban port to a farm, where they can become established in the grain production system.” Mr Moran urged people to undertake some simple actions and reduce the risks of grain being dumped on the roadside.

“To avoid overloading, a more accurate measure of weight is required,” he said. “This could include installing a permanent or temporary on-farm weighbridge, gaining access to a nearby off-site weighbridge, using an on-board, over the axles or suspension-mounted vehicle scale, or simple visual methods proven to reduce overloading.” Mr Moran said there should be no residual grain left in the trailer that needed to be dumped before picking up a new delivery. “While this is an ongoing matter between the grains industry and receival sites, if there is grain left over that needs to be disposed of, do so safely,” he said. “It can be burned, buried or bagged and reused, perhaps as livestock feed if it is uncontaminated. “If a truck arrives empty but not clean, it’s possible that residual grain has been dumped. “Growers should also have a designated clean-down area, which can be monitored regularly for volunteer plants, weeds or pests. “If you witness roadside grain dumping, you should report it to the Environment Protection Authority using their reporting app. “It’s considered littering under the Victorian Environment Protection Act 1970, so if you see someone dumping grain from a truck and trailer, provide relevant details and it will be followed up.”

CONNECTING: Wimmera Machinery Field Days president Sam Eagle is looking forward to bringing people together for an Innovations Day event. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Agricultural ‘get-together’ Wimmera Machinery Field Days organisers are encouraging farmers to get together for an ‘Innovations Day’ featuring agriculture machinery and technology dealers. The event is at Moore Exhibition Centre at Longerenong on July 6 from 10am to 3pm. Wimmera Machinery Field Days president Sam Eagle said it was a good opportunity for Wimmera farmers to engage

with regional dealerships. “It’s a social day for local farmers with local dealerships out there to display their new technology. We’re making it very local,” he said. “We will have Emmetts, Goldacres, O’Connors, Agrifac, OzValue AG and Belle-Vue Trading attending.” Mr Eagle said it was a casual event to catch up with friends, other farmers and the dealers,

with a barbecue lunch available. “We haven’t had many catchups for the farming community, even now we are allowed to, so this is a good chance to do that,” he said. “We will have a door prize donated by Horsham Bearings. It’s free entry, so turn up and grab a raffle ticket for a chance to win a Milwaukee four-piece tradie pack valued at about $2000.” – Abby Walter

New path to market T

here’s an interesting project underway in the Wimmera this season.

Eleven farmers are growing a new high-fibre wheat for a flour mill in Japan. This wheat was developed by the CSIRO. Their research indicates improved digestive health, protection against genetic damage that precedes bowel cancer and help in combating type two diabetes as benefits of consuming products made from this wheat. The flour can be used in all the normal foods – pastas, pizza bases, muffins and chocolate brownies. It’s likely consumer demand will be strong. The project stimulates some thoughts around our approach to getting this product to customers. Wheat exports from Australia are pretty much dominated by the large traders. They have the capital, multi origin capability and logistics clout to control a large share of commodity exports. Increasingly, though, it seems their profits are driven by volume of trade, not by maximising the value of the wheat crop – thus the ‘cheapest grain in the world’ tag we’ve been ‘enjoying’ for the last year or so. The exciting thing about the new

From left field with David Matthews

wheat type is we can build a new path to market. We can move our thinking from trading to marketing. We can look to the extra ‘value’ in this product at consumer level and ensure a share of that flows back to growers. With this project, it’s the growers working directly with the researchers and the flour mill. We don’t need an extended supply chain that dilutes both information flow and margins. It’s a collaborative production model where we work together to increase the size of the pie, instead of a more combative trading model where we fight for the biggest slice. Under the production agreements this season, growers have been able to lock in a base price of $670 per tonne delivered to port for new crop. The agreements allow for quality issues or tonnage shortfall due to the seasonal factors beyond the control of the grower. So we’re able to capture the current

high prices without having the worry of production risks – something that’s almost impossible to do in a normal trading transaction. Current varieties of the high-fibre wheat do suffer a yield penalty when compared with the best mainstream varieties. A portion of the price premium compensates for this. But with better varieties available in the next one to two years, that yield gap will be quickly closed. Consumers in developed countries are increasingly choosing foods that offer either perceived or real health benefits. These consumers are prepared to pay for what they want. It’s a different mindset to commodity consumption, where price is the most important factor. Demand for the high-fibre wheat will take it well beyond being a niche product. The Japanese mill expects its consumption to grow from 4000mt this year to 40,000mt in five years’ time – and that’s just one mill. As new grain technologies are released, more opportunities will emerge for grower groups to have a direct role in the commercialisation process. The benefits to individual farm businesses, and to the rural economy, can be significant.

Lamb supply ‘significant’ Paddocks across the Wimmera are starting to fill with lambs as lambing season begins for sheep farmers. Meat and Livestock Australia market information analyst Ripley Atkinson said lamb prices were lower now than this time last year. “There’s an increase in supply at a yarding level and to be processed and slaughter levels are up,” he said. “Prices are also being impacted by the quality of lambs as the wet conditions are impacting weight gain in lambs and they’re not getting a strong quality finish.” Mr Atkinson said the supply

of lambs this year was significant. “There are more lambs available domestically and we’re seeing exports perform better with an increase in the Australian flock due to the growth that occurred from March 2020 in lambing areas,” he said. “Processors had forward contracts booked out early, which means their demand at the saleyards are softer. “The national flock has been rebuilding for several years, so we haven’t seen this supply level in the past few years because there were not this many sheep during and immediately after drought in New South Wales.”

est Wimmera Shire Council will call on the State Government to fulfill its commitment to complete the Murray Basin Rail Project.

Council leaders said the project was critical to the movement of grain from the shire. The five-stage project, worth $440-million with funding from state and federal governments, was scheduled for completion in 2018. It aims to standardise 1130 kilometres of the Western Victorian Rail Network and increase the volume of grain transported by up to 500,000 tonnes per year, among other efficiencies. Stage two of the project is funded, but has stalled midway through its completion. Council leaders said freight capacity had decreased while transit times had increased, the road network was degrading as rail freight was lost to road, the region was increasingly reliant on high-productivity freight vehicles and a mix of broad and standard rail gauges remained as a result of the status of the project. The council will write to Premier Daniel Andrews to express concern over the project and request he honour the government’s commitment to complete the project to its original scope. Cr Tim Meyer said the project’s impact was far-reaching. “People might wonder why West Wimmera has an interest in this project,” he said.

“It’s a very important thing to get freight back on the rail. We have 100 thousand tonnes of grain sitting out here at Lillimur and that’s all going by trucks and going down the road – and that makes the road dangerous.” Cr Trevor Domaschenz said the council’s initiative would add weight to a statewide movement calling for the project to continue. Meanwhile, Member for Mallee Anne Webster and Senator for Victoria Bridget McKenzie have added their voices, saying the Nationals had delivered a $195-million rescue package in 2020 at a federal level. Dr Webster said industry representatives and producers were becoming increasingly frustrated at the project’s lack of progress. “The Murray Basin Rail Project will reduce the number of trucks on country and urban roads, reduce emissions, remove inefficiencies and boost economic growth for primary producers,” she said. “It just makes sense to get the job done. No more excuses and obfuscation. “The local transport industry is worse off than before the project started because of the mismanagement of the State Government. “Since the rescue package was put on the table by the Nationals in government, the Andrews government has dragged its feet to make progress of any kind. With a new Federal Labor Government, I am seriously concerned about the future of this project.”

Glenpaen Merino and Poll Merino Stud sheep were showcased at the event, bringing home 17 ribbons for rams and ewes. Glenpaen stud principal Rod Miller said it was good to be able to get back to showing and to see other sheep. “It’s always good to win. We won in 2019, there was no show in 2020 and we didn’t get up in 2021, so it was good to be back,” he said. “We were lucky enough to go all the way with a fine wool horn ram, who was the best sheep of the day. The judges liked him and that’s all you can want.” Along with winning supreme exhibit, Glenpaen sheep won grand champion merino ram, best Victoria bred ram, highest aggregate fine merino classes, champion March shorn fine wool horn ewe, champion March shorn fine wool poll ewe, champion March shorn medium wool poll ewe, champion March shorn fine wool ram, champion March shorn medium wool poll ram, champion August shorn fine wool ram, reserve champion fine wool ewe, and reserve champion medium wool ram. Mr Miller said the stud would be taking sheep to the Australian Sheep and Wool Show next month, at Bendigo. “We had a good run at Ballarat, but Bendigo is the one to win,” he said. “We last won in Bendigo in 2019 when we were fortunate enough to win best ram and best ewe. “We’ll see how we go this year with sheep at the show from nearly every state in the country, so we will be up against some very good competition. “As long as we are competitive, that is what we ask for and to win is a bonus.”

Plans for an East Grampians Rural Pipeline Project are undergoing amendments. Agribusiness and local government representatives attended a GWMWater briefing on the progress of the project earlier this month. They heard that detailed design work had resulted in changes to the project – with it now incorporating the Mt Cole Reservoir and Lake Fyans as main supply storages for the network. Ararat Rural City mayor Jo Armstrong said the council had long advocated for the project, which was vital to providing water security for farmers. “The pipeline has been designed to create a water grid that delivers water security now and offers opportunities for farm businesses to expand in the future,” she said. “Agribusinesses in Ararat Rural City are the main beneficiaries of the project, with the original scope offering about 1500 farms and unserviced towns with up to 750 million litres more water each year. “This is a game-changer, bringing greater opportunity to diversify, value-add and buffer the cycle of good and bad harvest years. “After working so hard to put ourselves in the box seat and government funding secured in 2019, progress has been slower than we would have liked but it is pleasing to hear the project is moving ahead.” Prime lamb producer Charlie de Fegely said landowner support was vital to the project in terms of co-contributions from users to help deliver the project and co-operation to see the benefits maximised. “We’ve been partners in the project since day one and while there have been delays, local agribusinesses have got behind the project with more than 400 heads of agreements now secured,” he said. Cr Armstrong said the council understood GWMWater was finalising revised project plans.

Three decades on the job B

BY MICHAEL SCALZO

arry Ray is a familiar face to people who have attended the Wimmera’s agricultural college during the past three decades.

This year marks Mr Ray’s 30th year working at Longerenong College – a career he says he owes to a commitment of helping young people succeed in agriculture. “That is the reason I have lasted this long,” he said. “The underlying truth is I love helping young people love agriculture – it is something I am totally committed to and gets me up every morning.” Mr Ray, originally of Mildura, was a student at the college from 1977 to 1979, and returned to the campus in 1992 as a teacher. Now the college’s academic programs manager, Mr Ray said his time spent in Longy classrooms meant he better understood his students, and he hoped they better understood him. “When I do help out in the classroom, as part of my role now, I can relate to the students. It’s an, ‘I have been where you are’ understanding,” he said. “I had a good time here as a student, but I can also encourage them to get the balance right between having fun and their studies. I think they understand that relationship. “It is a case of if they are struggling

– that is okay. I was there. I was threeand-a-half hours away from home, managing that separation from home, and I hope it allows me to establish some empathy.” Mr Ray said many things had changed at the college since he first arrived on staff. “We used to have 45 homes on site, a primary school, fruit orchard and vegetable garden that supplied the campus. It was a really broad community, but things change and the enterprises we have on the farm have changed, too,” he said “We have enhanced other areas now and we are also in the process of building new accommodation facilities. But really, since 1889, change has been a constant for Longy. The reality is it will continue to evolve.” Mr Ray said personal connections were a feature of the college and was what drove many people to remain part of its community, as a student or a staff member. He described working at the college as a ‘lifestyle’. “It almost is a lifestyle here. Longy is a small organisation as far as tertiary institutions are concerned, and as soon as an organisation gets too big, it is inevitable you’re going to lose some personal connectivity,” he said. “For the first eight years working here, I lived on site within the community. There were lots of staff living

STUDENT TO TEACHER: Longerenong College academic program manager Barry Ray has been with the institute for 30 years. here then, too. My first role here was managing the piggery, which meant I had to be here to manage the livestock. It is that essence of a small community, while it has changed, that remains part of the college’s community and persona.” Mr Ray said he was looking forward to the college’s August 14 open day being a face-to-face event again, with pandemic restrictions eased. “If you are looking for a career in agriculture, the opportunity and breadth of opportunity here is signif-

icant in terms of the technology we have here, but also the opportunity to find a job,” he said. “Employers are always contacting us looking for staff, so from that point of view, it is an amazing opportunity for our students. “At Longy we believe in teaching a well-rounded mix of practical agricultural skills, along with the theoretical knowledge to underpin those skills. You will learn what do, but also, why you are doing it.” • Agricultural careers, page 41.

VFF looks to election 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

Victorian Farmers Federation has launched its state election platform and established its advocacy campaign policy points ahead of the 2022 election. VFF president Emma Germano said she was proud to present a positive agenda that focused on delivering for farmers and regional communities ahead of November 26. “The VFF has pulled together a policy platform that doesn’t just speak to the issues farmers are facing; but the issues faced by all regional communities,” she said. Ms Germano said the commitments being sought as part of the VFF’s Fair Go For Regional Victoria campaign included critical investment into regional road and rail, housing, healthcare, biosecurity, jobs and environmental management, among others. “Whether it’s how we work together to maintain the profitability of industry, how we deal with a changing climate, or how we continue to sustain thriving communities with a lifestyle envied by those in Melbourne, farmers are well placed to identify the issues that matter to all regional Victorians and to offer solutions,” she said. Ms Germano said she encouraged farmers to make their voices heard. “We are committed to ensuring regional Victoria is front and centre at this election, and equally to working with all to deliver a better future,” she said.

Daniel set for world titles 95 Nelson Street, Nhill CALL 03 5391 2106

BY MICHAEL SCALZO

Longerenong College student and third-generation competitive plougher is eyeing a world contest after coming up trumps in Tasmania. Second-year student Daniel Gladwell, 19, has heard stories about his father competing in world ploughing contests in the 1980s. His grandfather ploughed and coached ploughers at world contests in the 1970s. Daniel Gladwell took home the Tasmanian State Ploughing Contest this month, and representing his home state at a national contest at the weekend, also in Tasmania, placed fourth. He said despite competing in his third state-level match this year, he still had a lot to learn. “This year’s contest went really well, but it definitely was a war of attrition,” he said. “It became about who made less mistakes. It was about being technically correct and getting it done properly.” Mr Gladwell said having a world competition-level plougher dad as his coach was a great learning tool. “It is just like watching your dad play football when you were young. It is something I have been doing for some time now,” he said. “Having Dad, arguably one of the best ploughmen in the country, as

TRADITION: Second year Longerenong College student and third-generation plougher Daniel Gladwell continues a family legacy in the national competitive-ploughing community.

Victorian fox and wild dog collections continue in Horsham from July to October. Acceptable entire fox scalps and wild dog body parts will be collected from eligible members of the community at designated collection centres. Horsham dates are July 6, August 3, August 31, September 28 and October 26, at 180 Horsham-Noradjuha Road between 1.30pm and 3.30pm. Wild dog drop-offs must be made by appointment. An electronic funds transfer is the preferred method of payment. People are asked to bring their bank details to the collection centre to assist staff.

Reduce exposure coach is amazing. He was helping me out before the contest last week, practicing with me, getting everything right. “It takes practice to be a good competition plougher – also patience – but it can be a very hard thing to get your head around if you didn’t grow up around it. It takes time, and that is perhaps why there are fewer young people competing.” Mr Gladwell said he had previously qualified for the 2022 world championships during the 2021 national contest, with this year’s national event

qualifying him for the 2023 world contest. “I have already qualified for the 2022 world contest, hosted by Ireland this year, and I head there in September. We qualify for the world events a year in advance,” he said. “I have been to world contests before with my Dad, so I know what I am in for. “My first world event was in New Zealand when I was eight, and I have also been to one in Denmark. “I know what to expect, but obviously this will be my first time

competing in one, so we will see.” Mr Gladwell said while the dirt in Europe always looked the best, nothing was better than ploughing at home. “In Europe it looks really nice, it is really sandy and ploughs really great. But nothing beats home,” he said. “I would love to have a world contest on home soil in north-west Tasmania. “Hopefully we can get some funding and attention and bring the world contest back to Australia for the first time since it was in Geelong in 1997.”

n pride of place on my office noticeboard is pinned a COVID-19 New South Wales border entry permit.

I kept it to show my yet-tobe-born grandchildren about the pandemic that changed our lives. I was so grateful I’d made the decision, years before, to move from Melbourne to north-east Victoria and to this day, I have somehow avoided catching COVID – touch wood. How fortuitous it was and little did we know how so many more would choose the tree change. The latest data from Regional Australia Institute’s Regional Movers Index shows regional migration is at a five-year high and young people are driving growth – in particular the millennials and generation X-ers, that being, people aged 25 to 55 years-old. RAI economist Kim Houghton told Country Today: “Regional living is attracting more young people and particularly younger families who are looking for bigger living spaces at a cheaper cost. “Millennials and Gen-Xers are

Country Today with Libby Price

welcome additions to any regional community as they often bring with them business skills to grow the local community, as well as families who integrate into the local school system and community sporting activities.” With that population growth, though, comes pressure on infrastructure and services. Let’s hope governments at all levels take heed to the need to provide more to regional areas so people stay and are not frustrated by the lack of schooling and health services close by. Certainly the Victorian Farmers Federation is rallying to the cause. Last week at the VFF conference in Ballarat, president Emma Germano released the organisation’s State Election agenda and it doesn’t just focus on agriculture policy.

The big push is for transport infrastructure and education and health services. Premier Daniel Andrews runs a very tight ship and is quick to shut down criticism. His government’s broken promise on the Murray Basin Rail Project and the city-centric reforms to fire services won’t be forgotten, though. As the always forthright Ms Germano said to Country Today: “What we need is genuine consultation. This notion that the government goes off and does whatever it likes, whenever it likes, has to stop. “I think, to be frank, that there’s a sense that the community has been taken for granted. “I think everybody is so over politics. If we just look at what happened in the Federal Election, we see an entire community saying, ‘we’re done with this style of politics and the things that matter to us, need to matter to government’.” I couldn’t have put it better myself.

ALL-WEATHER THREAT: Firefighters work to put out a tractor fire at St Helen’s Plains last week. Picture: PAUL CARRCHER

A timely reminder for all Despite the cool winter weather across the Wimmera, farmers are reminded to take precautions against machinery fire risks. District 17 assistant chief fire officer Mark Gunning said there were three main causes for machinery fires in winter. “People should be alert to pests and rodents getting into wiring, which can cause issues,” he said. “Another cause can be a build-up of grass and straw. If machinery is not cleaned properly it can rest against moving parts or exhausts and ignite. “Farmers should also ensure their machinery is in good working mechanical condition. Be active about checking equipment.” Mr Gunning said farmers should not expect machinery to be in the exact con-

dition it was when it was put in the shed. “Never forget that a few minutes could save a huge inconvenience, damage and having to replace machinery,” he said. “If something does ignite, treat it seriously. Do not remain in the cab and get to a safe space. Always carry a working fire extinguisher that is suitable for the type of risk.” Mr Gunning said winter was also the time of year to be vigilant in homes. “We are starting to see chimney fires where they haven’t been cleaned, as well as carbon monoxide build-up with gas heaters,” he said. “Make sure smoke detectors in the home are working and that a plumber has checked any gas heaters ahead of the colder months.”

Broad appeal BY ABBY WALTER

he future of agriculture was a focal point of the Western Victorian Careers Expo at Longerenong last week – from how to gain more skills to the technology that continues to develop. Students experienced different parts of the agriculture industry first-hand. Emmetts recruitment advisor Amber Peters said students at the expo were mainly interested in mechanical-based career paths. “Because we have a lot of technology in what we do, we saw a lot of kids come over because of that side of it, they’re very interested in precision ag and things like that,” she said. “Being able to interact like this gives students a chance to learn there is more to agriculture than farming. “We also get the opportunity to talk to them and explain and show them where the future of agriculture is going.” Ms Peters said she had received a lot of interest regarding apprenticeship programs.

“I think a lot of young people are looking down that path rather than going to university. They want to go into apprenticeships and traineeships,” she said. “We had quite a lot of young people off farms come through. They’re looking for something else that’s not going straight back to the farm.” Ms Peters said Emmetts’ main program was an apprenticeship to become a qualified diesel mechanic. “We’re also going into parts interpreting, so we have apprenticeships in that area as well,” she said. “We have quite a few options in our company to go into sales, finance, parts, service or other departments.”

Opportunities

O’Connors apprenticeship program co-ordinator Tim Nagorcka said he believed a lot of students did not realise how many careers there were in agriculture. “I think a lot of students in this area are on farms already and will probably go back on the farm,” he said. “A career in ag could start

with Longerenong or with us, so they can deal with agriculture in our industry. “A lot of young people like having that experience and dealing with the machines they are used to being around.” Mr Nagorcka said he felt a lot of students were unsure of the exact path in agriculture they wanted to pursue. “For us to explain what we do and provide an insight on a career path with us has been really good,” he said. “We got to take the names of people who are looking at work experience or a schoolbased apprenticeship. “We get a lot of inquiries for that sort of pathway. “We encourage work experience, as many people don’t know what goes on behind the front door, and then to go into a school-based apprenticeship and then into an apprenticeship. “We were able to explain this career can take you to so many different places. “We have 15 dealerships in three different states, so there’s potential to work in many places.”

SUCCESS: Olivia Limburg shows off her best bantam hardfellow at Wimmera Poultry Club’s open show at Horsham Showground. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Welcome return for poultry lovers Poultry lovers from across Victoria and interstate were in Horsham for the return of a Wimmera poultry exhibition following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Wimmera Poultry Club’s 2022 Open Show welcomed more than 300 birds to Maydale Pavilion at Horsham Showground for the club’s first show in more than two years. While organisers were hoping for a full shed of birds, clashes with other well-known poultry shows reduced exhibition numbers. However, club president Brendan Lloyd said the quality of the birds on show was ‘outstanding’ and the opportunity for friends to meet up again after several years made for a great event. “We have so much variety at our shows, and our open show was no exception,” he said. “The quality of the birds was very high, and it becomes a matter of what birds are in best condition on the day. But of course, the top birds always stand out and they did again. Mr Lloyd said it was important for exhibitors

to get together after an easing of pandemic restrictions. “It was just great to get back together and catch up with everyone. There were people there who haven’t seen each other in two years,” he said. “We had a big turnout from South Australia and New South Wales, with nearly half the birds in the shed having come from interstate. Word from everyone was the day went really well. “The judges and exhibitors were all happy with a great show.” Wimmera Poultry Club’s next show is the 2022 championship show on August 20 at Horsham Showground, where Mr Lloyd said he expected a huge turnout. Champion bird in show at Wimmera Poultry Club’s Open Show was Laurie Barber’s black red light leg cock old english game cock bantam and junior champion in show went to Olivia Limburg with her modern game PLT pile. A junior encouragement award to Thomas Rudolph.

Farming podcast reaches milestone

reators of a Wimmera-made podcast series have set eyes on another 12 months of story sharing and open conversations, after reflecting on its first-year success.

Farmer Wants a Healthy Life, a brainchild of West Wimmera Health Service and hosted by Wimmera identity and mountain-climber turned storyteller Brigitte Muir, invites listeners to be part of a conversation about rural-based health and wellbeing issues. Service health promotions manager Dorothy McLaren said the podcast, which celebrated its first birthday this month, was created as a vehicle for farming and rural communities to listen to and share stories about healthy farming life. “In the latest season, we heard from a variety of guests, including Justin Knorrp, about how he was helping farmers to be more active in Warracknabeal,” she said. “He also shared what made him want to start the Active Farmers group, who comes to the group and what they get from it. “Another popular episode from the

SPECIAL GUEST: Justin Knorrp, founder of Active Farmers, was a guest on the Farmer Wants A Healthy Life Podcast.

first series was an interview with former AFL star John ‘Jumbo’ Sudholz who shared his struggle with depression on returning to the farm after his AFL career. “In a moving conversation, John talked candidly about the hard times he faced and how he has learned to live with depression.” Ms Muir said hosting the podcast was a chance to connect with her guests. “I have ended up loving the peo-

ple I talked to,” she said. “After 12 months of connecting people and making a moving impact on listeners from across the region, this local podcast is set to continue the buzz and hopefully start a movement for farmers from all walks of life to make the choices for a healthy life.” Farmer Wants a Healthy Life podcast is available on most streaming services including Apple and Spotify.

Stawell Skene Street Specialist School students are excited to soon play on an upgraded basketball court and exercise equipment. Stawell shearer Corey Mifsud, his brother Brody and their father Roger presented a $23,000 cheque to teachers and students – money they raised from a ‘24-hour Shear Madness’ event. The three shearers shore 2822 sheep between them in 24 hours and raised almost $80,000 for Stawell’s Skene Street Specialist School and Merri River School, Warrnambool. Skene Street principal Sandi Slocombe said staff and students were grateful for the support from Corey and his team. “Initially, when Corey and I first had a conversation about what we would like to put any money raised towards, all we wanted was a basketball ring,” she said. “It has become a running joke because we can definitely get more than one basketball ring now. “With the $23,000 we are going to upgrade the basketball courts with two new adjustable basketball rings. “These type of rings can be moved up or down so students in wheelchairs will also be able to use them. Everybody will be able to access them.” Mrs Slocombe said the money would also be put towards five outdoors fitness stations. “We hope to have arm bikes for our

students in wheelchairs as well as strength equipment like pull-up bars,” she said. “This is all part of the whole outdoor oval area upgrade. “The students are pretty excited to be updating the outdoor space.” Mrs Slocombe said the event and lead-up to the event was amazing. “The students did work around sheep and shearing and we sent two senior classes to the event,” she said. “Lots of families and staff attended. It was great to have people supporting the team.” The fundraiser was in honour of Corey’s four-year-old son Levi, who has autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, and is likely to attend Skene Street school in 2023. Corey said it was emotional to see the reactions of the teachers and students when the team presented the cheque. “To see the students smile and some of the teachers with some tears in their eyes was very emotional,” he said. “It made us feel like the blood, sweat and tears were 100 percent worth it. “We did not think we would raise anywhere near almost $80,000 and it was awesome to be able to provide a substantial amount to both schools. “I hope what the students and teachers get with the money makes their experience at school as enjoyable as possible.”

Being a corner block there is great access into the back yard which has some sundry shedding and a single garage. All only a couple of minutes to the main street.

All things are possible

Some years ago in England a young volunteer with a marine rescue unit was badly injured while taking part in a rescue at sea. His injuries were so severe it was doubtful whether the young man could survive. Even if he did survive it was probable that he would be severely brain impaired. His Mother, understandably distraught, feeling hopeless and helpless, could not find the words to pray. She then remembered the words of a hymn “Father, I place into your hands the things I cannot do” and clung to them. A miracle happened. The young man did survive. His brain slowly healed and he was able to continue living a happy and productive life. We face challenges, hurdles and uncertainties these days where we can feel hopeless and helpless. God is there, holding out His hand. The Bible tells us that “with God all things are possible” (Mark 10:27.) I once felt I could not fight my way out of a paper bag. God helped me. He will help you. Reach out. His hand is waiting to take yours. Jennifer Pearson, City Heart Church of Christ Stawell Inc.

DASH – Blue Light Victoria Blue Light Victoria is currently seeking engaging and experienced facilitators with experience working with upper primary school children to facilitate our DASH program across the Northern and Southern Grampians.

Organisation Background Blue Light Victoria (BLV) is an independent, for-purpose organisation with a vision to inspire, engage and equip young people and strengthen communities. Working with young people primarily between the ages of 10-21 years, BLV provides youth engagement opportunities building resilience and wellbeing through interactive programs across Victoria. BLV partners with a wide array of stakeholders to deliver these initiatives, including community organisations, Victoria Police, emergency services and primary and secondary schools. Programs facilitated across the state enable approximately 20,000 young people to participate in a BLV event or program each year.

The DASH Program BLV has recently been successful in securing funding for the delivery of ‘DASH’ – a program for Years 5 and 6 students, across the local government areas of Northern and Southern Grampians. We would like facilitators to be based locally in these regions, and would support relocation costs for the right candidate. The program encourages awareness of local community and builds relationships with ‘community experts’ through a range of activities, experiences, and skill building. Students explore issues of significance in a fun and active way, and design collaborative, actionbased projects, culminating in an interactive demonstration of their learning. DASH is facilitated in the classroom by Blue Light Victoria staff and supported by our key partners such as Victoria Police, emergency services and other relevant community agencies. This approach provides a unique opportunity for students to engage beyond the school and to interact directly with their community.

Key Responsibilities:

• Preparation prior to program delivery - Attend facilitator training sessions. - Develop and maintain a comprehensive understanding of DASH program content. - Attend meetings and prior to program delivery. o Manage program materials. • Delivery of DASH program across primary schools - Travel to schools across the region to facilitate the DASH program in an engaging manner. - Facilitate programs to maximise engagement and meet intended program outcomes. - Deliver info sessions in person or virtually to school staff and parents. - Provide a safe, comfortable environment for students. - Enable deep discussions. - Build rapport with program participants and enable rapport building between ‘community experts’ and students. - Work collaboratively with DASH stakeholders and staff. • Stakeholder Management - Maintain positive relationships with schools and local community services. - Communicate directly with police, emergency and community service members who will be participating in the program. - Represent Blue Light Victoria positively and professionally • Basic program administration - Manage calendar including scheduling of programs and school site visits. - Complete program evaluation and reporting within required timeframes. - Undertake risk assessments and Incident reporting as required. - Liaise regularly with the Program Manager and/or Training and Development Manager to provide feedback on individual sessions and program progress - Travel within base area locations as well as some travel to Melbourne will be required.

Three-wide down finals straight H

BY MICHAEL SCALZO

orsham District Football Netball League footballers can settle into their second bye round in as many weeks after an unpredictable round 10 of competition.

Rupanyup, Harrow-Balmoral and Kalkee sit pretty at the top of the ladder, equal on 36 points and nine wins apiece, two games clear of a Jeparit-Rainbow outfit unable to take the fight to the Southern Roos at the weekend. It should have been the round’s most feverish battle given top-three stakes were up for grabs, but the Storm took three-quarters to put its first six points in the board, an aggrégation of behinds. Meanwhile, the Southern Roos, perhaps thinking clearly after their loss to Rupanyup the weekend prior, had hammered home 13 goals, nine behinds, by the time the Storm ran onto the field for the start of the final term. The Southern Roos’ William Plush, back into the line-up for the first time since round four, was again dominant, as was Peter Staude – Harrow-Balmoral claiming a convincing 65-point win. Swifts and Edenhope-Apsley – predictably – were just as evenly matched on field as they were on paper. With points level at quarter time, then again at half time, the Saints headed into the final 30 minutes with a two-goal buffer. But a Saints’ goalless last term let a fast-finishing Baggies side find its feet again in front of a home crowd. The result was Horsham district league’s first draw of the season and a splitting of points for two sides keen to maximise their chances of a finals finish. In a fight for a ‘best of the rest’ crown, Kaniva-Leeor United welcomed a travelling Laharum to Kaniva for a tight affair and a frantic finish. The Cougars matched the Demons’ three-goal last-quarter effort with three straight of their own to run out two-point winners. It might leave Kaniva-Leeor a fancy to jump the

TOUGH FIGHT: Pimpinio’s Clint Burdett finds space where there is none, against Kalkee at the weekend. The Kees defeated Pimpinio 167-19.

This week: League bye.

Undefeated Mininera teams continue winning streak – until round 11 After nine rounds in Mininera and District Football League, both Ararat Eagles and Tatyoon are leading the way and are both undefeated. The sides will look to continue their winning streak this week to set-up a very important clash in round 11. Ararat Eagles take on Wickliffe-Lake Bolac this round after a strong performance against Caramut, winning by 28 goals. Jaydo Wright was named best-onground with a seven-goal haul against

his name. Ben Robertson, Brady Miller and Mitchell Laundy were also named in the best players after very strong performances. Wickliffe-Lake Bolac also comes off a 13-goal win against Hawkesdale-Macarthur and will be pumped to try to give Ararat its first loss for the season. Samuel Coppe and Nicholas Cooper were the better players for the day along with Mat Kent who kicked six goals.

Tatyoon had a tough hit-out last week against Lismore-Derrinallum but came away with a 19-point win. Tatyoon should have no trouble this week when they travel to Hawkesdale to take on Hawkesdale-Macarthur and will be working on skills and structure to lead into round 11 the week after. Ben Clay led the way in front of goals, kicking five; while Mathew Smith, Anthony Rosato and Sam Cronin all put in strong performances to

help their team. Hawkesdale-Macarthur, on the other hand, lost to Wickliffe-Lake Bolac last week by 86 points and will hope to start the game off better this week with them only kicking one goal to the opposition’s 10 in the first quarter. Lachlan Tanner, Joshua Reichman and Ollie Wortley tried hard all day. In other games, it should be a close contest between Great Western and Caramut, Glenthompson-Dunkeld will be fighting hard to get the four

points against Woorndoo-Mortlake and get even with them on the ladder, Penshurst travels to Moyston to take on Moyston-Willaura and SMW Rovers come off a 203-point win against Moyston-Willaura last week will try and keep the momentum going to challenge Lismore-Derrinallum.

Saints-Demons part two BY MICHEAL SCALZO

orsham supporters of both stripes are gearing up for a second instalment of the Horsham Saints-Horsham Demons Wimmera Football Netball League battle this weekend.

Saints fans might not like a reminder of the round-two match-up where the Demons wrestled control of the Anzac Monday game during the second term and never looked back. But things might be closer this time around with a young Saints side having shown signs of improvement throughout the course of 2022. This Sunday, the Saints will have their chance to host a standalone game – you would expect a large crowd to turn out to Coughlin Park for this one. The Saints did not improve enough to topple Minyip-Murtoa at the weekend, however, even if signs of progression were there. The Burras kicked away after half time and slotted eight goals to the Saints’ one during the third quarter. It would be a third term the Saints might rue, given they led the Burras by two points before the main break, and matched it with them during the last. Meanwhile, the Demons were 78-points better than Nhill at Horsham City Oval – a result that saw them hold onto fourth place despite a comefrom-behind Dimboola-win against Southern Mallee Giants. But an inaccurate Rats side and an opportunistic Warriors win might have well been the round’s most notable result, because Stawell handed Ararat its first loss of the 2022 season. The Rats kicked six goals, 20 behinds, for a miserly 56-points – not a reflection of their score-

board dominance – but perhaps a reflection on the Warrior’s potential. Stawell is now third on the ladder, comfortably nestled inside the top-four as it charges towards the back end of the season. The next eight rounds would tell followers if Stawell, the side which has seemed most likely to challenge the leading Rats-Burra pair at the top of the table, can indeed make an impact come finals. In other round-11 games this weekend, Warrack Eagles, fresher than most after their last-round bye, will meet a Giants side in need of a win. The Eagles and Giants, separated on percentage and equal with two wins each, will need the points to fall their way on Saturday with a finals opportunity still for grabs – but you would expect a finals charge would need to start in Beulah this weekend. A resurgent Dimboola will have a crack at Minyip-Murtoa at Minyip, while Ararat saddles up for its longest road-trip of the year as it heads to Davis Park where a staunch Nhill will be waiting. This week: Southern Mallee Giants v Warrack Eagles at Beulah, Nhill v Ararat, Minyip-Murtoa v Dimboola, Horsham Saints v Horsham Demons, Stawell – bye. Last week: Stawell 9.7 (61) d Ararat 6.20 (56), Dimboola 16.12 (108) d Southern Mallee Giants 14.8 (92), Horsham Demons 17.17 (119) d Nhill 5.11 (41), Minyip-Murtoa 13.16 (94) d Horsham Saints 7.9 (51). Ladder: Ararat 32 points, 221.39 percentage; Minyip-Murtoa 31, 154.24; Stawell 24, 129.30; Horsham Demons 16, 128.52; Dimboola 12, 111.27; Horsham Saints 12, 73.06; Southern Mallee Giants 8, 83.24; Warrack Eagles 8, 61.67; Nhill 4, 48.15.

FAMILY MOVIE NIGHT Friday July 15

What are you putting up with? How long have you been putting up with that pain, stiffness, or lack of movement? Do you know that Chiropractic can help with these issues? The Brain Runs the Body. Part of the brain’s nutrition is movement; it creates electrical energy. Your spinal cord sends the messages up and down your spine. It is stimulated by movement. It sends the movement information to the cerebellum which then sends it to the brain. When your spine is not moving as well as it should, (there is a subluxation) -the brain cannot receive the messages as it should. The brain is missing some of its nutrients. A chiropractor will assess your spine and see which areas are jammed up causing the brain to receive misinformation. The chiropractor then gets these areas moving through a number of different ways. It helps the brain to read what is happening in the body better, creating better information pathways. You feel it as less pain, less stiffness and improved movement. This can also translate into better sports performance. You also get advice on how to maintain the health of your spine and nervous system. Chiropractic keeps your spine moving. Chiropractic keeps your brain energised. The health choices you make now can affect your body in 10 years. What are you waiting for?

Sunday battle of top-two teams M

BY ABBY WALTER

atch of the round in Wimmera Football Netball League A Grade competition is between Horsham Saints and Horsham Demons this weekend, as the top-two teams meet for the second time this season.

The Demons remain the team to beat, however the Saints are continuing to improve every week. Both teams have juniors in the goal ring, with Jorja Clode for Saints and Imogen Worthy for Demons, who are playing well and hard to defend. The centre court will see some good match-ups leaving the defenders, Jedda Heard and Romi Miller for Demons and Elly Barnett and Larnie Hobbs for Saints, to dictate the game. The game will be at Coughlin Park in Horsham on Sunday. In round 10 matches, it was a close finish to the game between Ararat and Stawell, with the Warriors coming out on top by three goals. Stawell was six goals down at the end of the first term and in the second quarter both teams had forced and unforced turnovers that resulted in a one-goal difference at half time. Defensive pressure made it difficult for goalers from both teams to convert. Stawell’s Madi Taylor in centre made several valuable intercepts in

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER the final half. Molly Orr in wing defence was able to apply pressure to passes going into the circle and also gained intercepts. Taylor and Lisa Stafford in attack were content to pass around until Ebony Summers and Zanaiya Bergen were open in the circle. Lisa Fleming and Tessa O’Callaghan gained important rebounds for the Warriors with a closer second half. There was a good centre-contest between the Warriors’ Taylor and Ararat’s Jesse Bligh and Monique Scott.

the Saints throughout the midcourt as junior player Jorja Clode played a solid game in goals and Abby Hallam directed play from goal attack. Horsham Demons had the week off as Nhill has not entered an A Grade this season, and Warrack Eagles had a bye. In other round 11 games, Southern Mallee Giants will play Warrack Eagles. Although the Giants are third on the ladder and came off a solid win in round 10, the Eagles always present a tough competition and should not be underestimated. Minyip-Murtoa will host Dimboola and with both teams coming off a loss it will be a fight to the finish. Dimboola will be determined to climb back into the top five with both teams matching up well and it will be the team who can convert from turnovers that will come out on top. Lucy Brand and Maddi Morgan were fairly accurate last week, however Olivia Jorgensen and Holly Ross applied good pressure over the shot. This week: This week: Southern Mallee Giants v Warrack Eagles at Beulah, Nhill v Ararat, Minyip-Murtoa v Dimboola, Horsham Saints v Horsham Demons, Stawell – bye. Last week: Stawell d Ararat 46-43, Southern Mallee Giants d Dimboola 55-39, Horsham Saints d Minyip-Murtoa 59-49.

Pre-bye losses disappoint BY MICHAEL SCALZO

aniva-Leeor United netballers have dropped outside the top-six after consecutive Horsham District Football Netball League losses.

After a loss to Edenhope-Apsley in round nine, the Cougars fell short against Laharum at the weekend and now find themselves two games short of the top-three. Jeparit-Rainbow would also be hurting after a 13-goal defeat to Harrow-Balmoral. The loss dropped the Storm to sixth – a game behind Saturday’s opponents, and the top-three chasing Edenhope-Apsley, which flew under the radar during the early half of the season but finding significant form of late. It is cruel consequences for the Storm and Cougars, but given the compression of the mid-table at this stage of the season, a win and its corresponding four-points might as well be worth eight. Kalkee was too good for Pimpinio in the end, with the Tigers putting up a stoic fight to be six and 10 goals behind at half and three-quarter times, before it blew out during the final term. Natimuk United did what was needed against Rupanyup, with

the Panthers never letting the margin balloon at any point during play – the Rams’ eight-goal win enough for four points. A late fightback from Swifts scared Edenhope-Apsley – a side now clearly visible on district league radars. The Saints held on for a six-goal win despite leading by 12 at the final change. But with a league-wide bye and the opportunity for some more time off this weekend, a win is a win – especially with the pointy end of the season rearing up quicker than expected, like usual. This week: League-wide bye. Last week: Kalkee d Pimpinio 66-40, Harrow-Balmoral d Jeparit-Rainbow 47-34, Laharum d Kaniva-Leeor United 46-35, Natimuk United d Rupanyup 3830, Edenhope-Apsley d Swifts 45-39. Ladder: Kalkee 36 points, 163.27 percent; Laharum 32, 171.48; Noradjuha-Quantong 32, 149.24; Harrow-Balmoral 28, 142.01; Edenhope-Apsley 28, 114.53; Jeparit-Rainbow 24, 123.56; Kaniva-Leeor United 24, 122.38; Natimuk United 16, 74.52; Swifts 8, 72.08; Pimpinio 8, 63.65; Rupanyup 4, 42.98. Taylors Lake 0, 0.

Freijah, Hopper in winning side Two Horsham football exports were part of the winning Greater Western Victoria Rebels team that defeated Northern Knights in NAB League under-19 boys competition on Saturday. Horsham Saints’ Joel Freijah kicked one point with nine disposals and Horsham Demons’ Jett Hopper also had nine disposals. The Rebels led all game and by half time were up by 12 points at Preston City Oval. At the final siren the side was 14 points in front. In round 12, after a week break for the league, the Rebels have a home game at Mars Stadium on July 10 against Sandringham Dragons.

Mitch Creek has played his first game for Mets De Guaynabo in Puerto Rico’s Baloncesto Superior National League and scored 17 points. The Horsham export and Southeast Melbourne Phoenix basketballer made his debut in Puerto Rico last week. In his 25 minutes on court as a centre player, Creek had two rebounds and one assist alongside five two pointers, one three pointer and four free throws. Mets De Guaynabo defeated Grises de Humacao, 106 to 81.

Little separating top hockey teams W

BY SIMON KING

All teams are in with a chance of qualifying for finals action, although some have more work to do than others. The evenness of the open competition was on display when, although the Yanac Tigers remain undefeated at the top, the round started with three wins separating teams second to fifth, but by Saturday evening, that margin had been reduced to two. Even the sixth-placed Nhill Rangers have shown they can still give any team above them a scare. The scoreline in the Yanac Tigers-Warrack Hoops match did not accurately reflect how this match played out on the field. These teams again fought out a great competitive game, with the Hoops’ solid defence repelling many more attacking moves than the four Tigers’ goals might suggest. Horsham Hurricanes worked hard to defeat Nhill Rangers, setting up the result with two goals in the first quarter and another before half-time. A fourth goal in the second half sealed the win, which keeps them in the top four, but the Rangers will need

Rangers 0 (L. Marra, J. Reichelt, C. Schultz). Dimboola Burras 3 (J. Harris 2, J. Klinge; J. Harris, J. Paley, D. Danisch) d Kaniva Cobras 1 (J. Clark; B. Lovett, C. Beattie, B. Miller).

ith the 15-round Wimmera Hockey Association season passing the halfway point on Saturday, competition for places at the top of each division is hotting up.

a win soon if they are to challenge for a place in the finals. Dimboola Burras played their best game in more than a month to overcome a determined Kaniva Cobras by three goals; however, due to other favourable results, the Cobras remain clear in second place, and although the Burras still hold fifth place, they are close enough to pounce if any of the teams above them falter. Yanac’s recent good form continued with a three-goal victory over Warracknabeal in the women’s competition, but this was another match where the scorecard did not do justice to the pressure they had to withstand. Two goals in the first half, one from a penalty stroke and one from a penalty corner, did not reflect the

determined defence by Warrack that kept the margin in check at half-time. The only score in an otherwise very even second half came in the dying seconds of the last quarter when Yanac scored its third. Nhill Thunderbirds scored mid-way through the second quarter in their game against Horsham Jets. This became a match-winning lead, as although both teams created scoring opportunities throughout the rest of the game, the defences held firm, and no further scoring resulted, giving the ’Birds a narrow win. Despite having the bye, Kaniva Women kept their place at the top of the ladder. In under-16 competition, Yanac Warriors continued their perfect season

with a win over Warrack Revengers, and Nhill Leopards have moved two wins clear in second place on the ladder after defeating Horsham Bombers. The two points Kaniva Raiders received for the bye combined with the margin in the Warriors-Revengers game have seen them rise into the top four, at the expense of the Warrack team, but only courtesy of a superior goal difference. Round eight results – Open: Yanac Tigers 4 (Goals, T. Alexander 2, C. Hassall, J. Cramer; best, B. Alexander, C. Hassall, T. Alexander) d Warrack Hoops 0 (H. Wagenknecht, C. Bardell, S. Schultz). Horsham Hurricanes 4 (T. Leffler 2, T. Batchelor, L. Simmons; T. Leffler, S. Hoffman, B. Woodhart) d Nhill

Heidelberg wins in season upset A

BY DAVID BERRY

better finish to Volleyball Horsham’s summer season you could not script, as grand finals delivered some exciting matches for players and spectators. In A Grade, Heidelberg upset ladder-leaders Hellenic Nuggets to deny them a seventh title, while Heidelberg won their fourth title in a thrilling five-set epic. At two sets to one down, Hellenic Nuggets was looking good, but Heidelberg called on its experience and fought back to take the match into a deciding fifth set, where it held its nerve, eventually winning 15-13. Final scores: Heidelberg defeated Hellenic Nuggets 3-2: 22-25, 25-16, 19-25, 28-26, 15-13. The Robinson Medal for the most valuable player for the season went to Jack Hannan. Runner-up was Nathan Berry. Abud Medal for the consistent male went to Tim Carter, while Kara Johnson won the McIntyre Medal for most consistent female. In A Reserve, Von Steiger Shadows won their fifth title from six seasons when they, too, had to dig deep to account for Heidelberg in another ripping five-set grand final. Adam Harrison was the most consistent player on the court for Von Steiger Shadows, serving well, defending stoutly and providing an offensive threat when on the net. Harrison was ably supported by the ever-reliable Mitch Huff, who passed well and hit with great smarts. Heidelberg tried everything to upset its opponent but had no answer, as Kimberley Crabtree and Jake Myerscough were in everything for the vanquished. Final scores: Von Steiger Shadows defeated Heidelberg 3-2: 22-25, 25-13, 16-25, 25-12, 15-13. Alexander Medal for the most valuable player went to Jake Myerscough, with Mark Block runner-up. The Abud Medal for the most consistent male went to Paul Drendel with Gemma Morgan taking the McIntyre Medal for most consistent female. In B Grade, HTLC Raiders were too strong for Team USA, winning in three sets. The young tyros from Horsham Holy Trinity Lutheran College were too skilful for the teachers from Horsham College and will now step up in grade next season to continue with their development. Final scores: HTLC Raiders defeated Team USA 3-0: 25-23, 25-11, 25-12. The Radford Medal for B Grade’s most valuable player went to Tim O’Donnell, with teammate Malachy O’Brien runner-up. The Abud

Medal for most consistent male went to Oscar Jackman while Kirah Smith took home the McIntyre Medal for most consistent female. A major upset occurred in C Grade when the senior students from Lutheran college’s Block It Like It’s Hot proved too good for Heidelberg, winning in four sets. Playing with five players, the Lutheran students, who also won their preliminary final in five sets, had their systems down pat and despite Heidelberg throwing everything at the youngsters, they couldn’t find a way and a second title went the way of the Lutheran college volleyball program. Final scores: Block It Like It’s Hot defeated Heidelberg 3-1: 25-22, 14-25, 25-15, 25-19. The O’Connor Medal went to Matt McLoughlin for the third successive season. Runner-up was Tayte Wardle – an amazing effort in Wardle’s first ever season of volleyball. The Abud Medal went to Pat Pignataro and Tahlia Dufty took her first McIntyre Medal. In the junior grand final, Murtoa Devils caused the upset of the season when they defeated Breakers in four sets. Having to win their last game of the regular season to even make finals, Murtoa Devils improved with every game they played throughout the finals series to win Murtoa College’s seventh junior title in 10 years. Final scores: Murtoa Devils defeated Breakers 3-1: 23-25, 25-19, 25-23, 27-25. The Ladlow Medal went to Malachy O’Brien who defeated Murtoa Gods’ Matilda Gawith for the honour. The Abud Medal went to Baxta Hendy, while Alex Bebero, in her first season of volleyball, was the McIntyre medallist. A successful presentation night concluded the season with the Country Champs most valuable player awards presented for the first time. The Baker Family Medal for division one men went to Nathan Berry, from Cam Robinson. The Berry Family Medal for division one women went to Kara Johnson, from Cleo Baker. The Nagorcka Family Medal for division two men went to Chris Hans Ca-ayon, from Tyler Puls. The Johnson Family Medal for division two women, Horsham team, went to Sophie Quick from Jorja Gardy. The Petering Family Medal for division two women, Wimmera team, went to Taylor Maggs, from Paige Hemley. The Vettos Family Medal for division three men went to Logan Young, from Heath Warrick. Entries are now being taken for the winter season, which starts on July 25 for C Grade and juniors, and July 27 for A Grade, A Reserve and B Grade.
