Tinwald residents are fed up with finding that every Monday morning their front gate has been turned into a community rubbish dump.

Residents on several streets around Ashburton are increasingly finding piles of rubbish bags dumped on their streets on rubbish day, with Grahams Road in Tinwald appearing to be the district’s current number one dump site.

Ashburton District Council waste recovery manager Craig Goodwin fields regular calls from people fed up with finding strangers’ rubbish bags offloaded at their gate. And while tossing

out your rubbish bags on your way to work might be convenient, that doesn’t make it right, he said.

Because the rubbish is in council bags it is collected and while those bags have not been searched to identify the dumper, that’s something he might consider if the problem escalated.

“But over this we’d far rather be working with the community than against it.

This is more about equity for residents who pay for the service in their rates rather than the money or the cost,” Mr Goodwin said.

He believes the illegal dumpers are from a mix of locations – Lake Hood, lifestyle blocks and farms where one

partner comes into town to work.

Council rubbish bags are free to dump at the town’s refuse centre, but it appeared people chose to off-load at other people’s gates, rather than making the effort of driving to the official dump site, he said.

There had also been reports of people being abused when they’d confronted the illegal dumpers, Mr Goodwin said.

“That’s made them pretty reluctant now to approach people.”

Five things that may interest you

INSIDE TODAY

Ducklings take on the surf Far North sports reporter Francis Malley has seen a few strange things when surfing in and around Shipwreck Bay – but even he was amazed when a family of ducklings tried to catch a wave with him. Malley was at Te Kohanga last week hoping to catch a few waves when he saw a paradise duck on the rocks with nine chicks. He said the mother was encouraging the ducklings to dive into the surf and try to make it to the other side of the breakers. The ducklings made several attempts, with the mother duck at times surfing a wave back towards them, before they were successful. “They were having a real hard time getting out and getting smashed by the surf and washed down the beach. I’ve never seen anything like it before, it was weird.”

Long-lost Disney film discovered in UK A long-lost Walt Disney animated film has been discovered in a British archive and will be screened for the first time in 87 years. The forgotten six-minute film, Sleigh Bells, has not been seen since its original release in 1928, according to the BFI National Archive, where the sole surviving film print was discovered. The film, which features an early precursor to Mickey Mouse, has been restored with the help of Walt Disney Animation Studios and will have its world premiere in London on December 12, the British Film Institute announced this week.

Serena Williams stops thief Tennis champion Serena Williams turned into a swift superhero when she stopped a would-be thief from stealing her phone. The 34-year-old athlete was eating dinner with a friend when a suspicious man approached their table. Williams said something “just didn’t feel right”. Her “superhero sense” kicked in and told her to keep an eye on him. The man allegedly grabbed her phone and tried to run from the restaurant, but he was too slow for the world’s number one tennis player. “I jumped up, weaved my way in and out of the cozy restaurant (leaping over a chair or two) and chased him down. He began to run but I was too fast.

(Those sprints came in handy) I was upon him in a flash!” Williams said on Facebook. With nowhere to go the man told Williams he “must have grabbed the wrong phone”.

She received a standing ovation from everyone in the restaurant.

Williams told fans it was a superhero moment and posted a pic of herself dressed as Supergirl.

Perry beats Swift in salary stakes She didn’t make as many headlines, nor sell as many albums, but Katy Perry handily beat Taylor Swift to become the highest-earning woman in music this year, according to Forbes. Perry, 31, earned $US135 million ($NZ204.75 million) in the past 12 months, thanks to a huge worldwide Prismatic tour and endorsements deals with beauty companies like Coty and CoverGirl, Forbes estimated in a ranking released yesterday. Swift, 25, was a distant second, with an estimated $US80 million ($NZ121.33 million), despite some 8.6 million sales globally for her 1989 hit album and the start of a world tour. Perry’s latest album Prism has sold some four million worldwide since its release in 2013 and the Roar singer has been touring for most of the year. BritishAmerican rock band Fleetwood Mac was placed third with $US59.5 million ($NZ90.24 million) although only two of its five current line-up are women. Nevertheless, the return of 1970s veterans Stevie Nicks and Christine McVeigh was seen as a key to the success of the band’s year-long tour On With the Show.

Simply Red for The Mission The Mission Estate has secured English soul and pop group Simply Red to perform in February. The concert will be part of the new Mission Estate Summer Concert series. Simply Red will take to the stage on February 28 with another major international artist, to be announced, to perform on February 27. This year’s concert was cancelled after a suitable act was unable to be found. Mission Estate CEO Peter Holley said at the time that many acts were now geared to indoor venues and while the Mission was a unique setting, it had limitations in some areas. However, his team were delighted to announce the 2016 concert. “We are looking forward to hosting the outstanding act and seeing them put on an exemplary performance.” He was hopeful of attracting more acts for the summer concert series. We want to put the fun back in summer,” Mr Holley said.

■ ASHBURTON GAMBLING FIGURES

Pokies fed $6.125m in a year

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.n@atheguardian.co.nz

Over the past 12 months gamblers in the Ashburton District have poured $6.125 million dollars into pokie machines.

That spending equates to more than $180 for every person in the Ashburton District and comes with a significant increase in spending for the September quarter, 7 per cent up on the same quarter in 2014.

Ashburton’s increased spend-

ing is well ahead of national figures that saw spending lift by 2 per cent in the year to September, in spite of machine numbers dropping.

The number of gaming machines has also dropped in the Ashburton District with the closure of the Ashburton Trust owned nightclub The Shed.

For the September quarter, $1.557 million was poured into gaming machines in the district, up from $1.454 million to Sep-

tember 30 last year.

Across all quarters over the past year, gaming machine spending was up across the district.

Nationally the Problem Gambling Foundation says its counsellors have full case loads, inspite of the number of machines dropping.

The foundation believes that pokie machines are one of the most addictive forms of gambling.

The Community Gaming Association believes higher fees and stricter laws are making it tougher for smaller pubs and clubs to maintain their gaming machines.

It also believes that falling numbers would ultimately result in less money going back into smaller communities.

The Ashburton District has 135 gaming machines over 12 venues; this time last year it had 154 over 13 venues.

Attacker under care A South Auckland man alleged to have attacked a woman with a ceremonial sword in Hamilton was under the care of a forensic mental health service.

Manjit Singh, 47, of Pukekohe, was under the care of the Mason Clinic run by the Waitemata District Health Board when he attacked a woman in her Sadler St home on Thursday night.

“The Mason Clinic and the Ministry of Health have confirmed that the man sought by Hamilton police for an alleged serious assault on his partner was under the care of forensic mental health services,” they confirmed in a statement yesterday.

“A formal investigation into the incident will be announced shortly.”

The confirmation comes after Waikato Police Detective Senior Sergeant Ross Patterson held a press conference in Hamilton yesterday confirming Singh was still on the run and classified as armed and dangerous.

They were currently making a number of inquiries into his whereabouts but had received a sighting of his distinctive orange van in South Auckland. - NZME

Dumpers earn ire of urban residents Jan Fitzgerald retires from her position as senior caregiver today.

■ LONG SERVICE

Rosebank stalwart retires after 23 years

By RuBy HaRfield

ruby.h@theguardian.co.nz

One of Rosebank Rest Home & Hospital’s longest serving employees will don her uniform for the last time today.

Jan Fitzgerald started as a senior caregiver at the Walnut Avenue facility the day after it opened in 1992 and has been there ever since.

Ms Fitzgerald, who retires to-

day, said she would miss the job but felt it was the right time in her life to leave because she wanted to be able to spend more time with family – especially her grandchildren.

There were also a number of friendships she hoped to rekindle now and her spare time would be spent gardening.

She planned to take up fishing next year too.

While Ms Fitzgerald was excited about the next stage in her life, she said she would miss the staff, residents and their families.

“I’ll just miss the environment.

“We’ve had lots of laughs, lots of good times, lots of social times.”

The most important aspect of her job had been palliative care, she said.

“I think it’s really rewarding caring for the dying and supporting their families.”

Ms Fitzgerald’s long-standing career at Rosebank has now only been surpassed by one other employee – a cleaner who started at the same time as her.

Her time at the facility will be celebrated with an afternoon tea today and a dinner with staff next week.

■ RAKAIA INCIDENT

Man falls off motorbike; airlifted to hospital Emergency services spent two hours helping a man who was found unconscious next to his motorcycle near Rakaia yesterday morning.

A 34-year-old farm worker was airlifted to Christchurch Hospi-

tal in a moderate to serious condition.

Rakaia Volunteer Fire Brigade deputy chief fire officer Tyrone Burrowes said the man was found unconscious by his manager in a paddock on Hatfield

Overdale Road at 6am.

The Rakaia fire crew, police, St John and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter all attended.

A Westpac Rescue Helicopter spokesperson said the man was transported to Christchurch

Hospital with moderate chest injuries after falling off his motorcycle on a dairy farm.

Sergeant Bryan Ennis, of Ashburton, said two police officers were dispatched to the scene at 7am.

From P1 If there were any positives in the practice, it was that people were recycling and they were using the correct rubbish bags, but that did not make the practice fair on others who paid for kerbside collection through their rates, he said.

A lone lamp post outside Tinwald School’s playing fields appears to be the current dumping hot spot. It’s not a new practice, but it’s one that’s becoming increasingly popular, principal Peter Livingstone said.

“It’s been going on for years.

They’re stopping on their way into town from 7am and dropping off their rubbish,” he said.

Mr Livingstone says he understands why they might find it convenient to leave their rubbish bags on someone else’s doorstep but if those bags were ripped open by cats or dogs then who would be responsible for cleaning up the mess, he asked.

Most collection days there were at least half a dozen bags left by the school lamp post, sometimes up to 10.

“I’ve even got photos of people stopping, getting out and leaving their rubbish and some of those are people in work vehicles. It’s almost become a local tradition.”

The council is looking at the option of establishing additional recycling sites to service properties on the outskirts of town.

Lucky escape from late frost

By NadiNe Porter

NadiNe.P@theguardiaN.co.Nz

It broke records just up the road and although a shock to the system, it seems Mid Canterbury farmers escaped lightly from yesterday’s late frost.

Ashburton residents woke up to a -1.2 degree frost with Methven almost a degree warmer at -0.3.

Luckily the late frost was not

severe enough to hurt the district’s many young brassica seed crops and was not likely to be repeated in the coming week according to a leading forecaster.

MetService meteorologist Claire Flynn said it was not uncommon to have a frost in November in Canterbury.

“This one was the remnant of the cold front earlier this week.

There was no cloud area behind the front and only light winds.”

This morning was expected to be slightly warmer, she said, with Ashburton reaching a low of 3 degrees and Methven 4 degrees.

Methven farmer Craig Mackenzie said the frost was “more white than hard”, although temperatures were lower than he would have liked.

However, his crops were fine with no damage visible.

“It was a very lucky escape.”

Meanwhile, Christchurch experienced a record breaking frost for November of -2.8 degrees. Ashburton’s previous November low recorded since records began in 1928 was -2.9 degrees in 2008 while Methven experienced -0.8 degrees in 2011.

Duchess indulges her love of literature, arts Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, spent yesterday afternoon meeting with esteemed members of the University of Otago and several of our nation’s top and aspiring authors and poets, as she asserted her great passion for literature and the arts.

After being led into the Council Chamber of the University of Otago by pipe Major Liam Kernaghan, the Duchess mingled with guests, discussing her great love of books.

Lynley Dodd, creator of the Hairy Maclary book series said the duchess immediately recognised her from their previous meeting in Auckland.

“Last time we met it was at a show in Auckland where she

Across the Ashburton District there are 842 properties that have or have had swimming pools installed. The Ashburton District Council is currently inspecting these to check the status of both the pools and pool fencing.

This year 473 pools have been inspected and council staff have found that of those 197 no longer have a pool installed while 77 had minor compliance issues. Of the pools inspected, 144 are fully compliant.

Feedback wanted on bus route Fairton School is in the process of revising its school bus route for next year due to a change in its roll.

Principal Rebekah Clement said they would be modifying the route for 2016 because they had two Year 6’s leaving at the end of the year who caught the bus from outlying areas.

This would leave them with some extra kilometres under their designated Transport Entitlement Zone.

The school wanted to hear from anyone in the community thinking about enrolling their child or wanting their children to take the bus, she said.

“We are wanting to accommodate as many people as possible.

“We are trying to cater for our families and students as best as we can.”

While no one had come forward yet, they hoped there would be people in the area who would take up the opportunity, she said.

There were currently about 30 students at the school and half caught the bus on a 70km route each day.

Anyone wanting to discuss the change can contact the Ms Clement on 03 308 9205 or principal@ fairton.school.nz.

In brief

and the other guests had to sing along to Hairy Maclary, so I suspect she was rather pleased she didn’t have to do that today, particularly as I believe she has a cough at the moment!”

The duchess described Ms Dodd as “author of my grandchildren’s favourite books” and joked with her that her grandchildren squabble over them.

Camilla asked Ms Dodd what she had been doing recently and when she explained her time was mostly taken up by emailing, the duchess said she “didn’t care for cellphones and emails,” which the pair shared a laugh over.

Later talking to Donald Kerr, Special Collections Librarian at the University, she described

herself as “a Luddite” when it came to computers and technology, very much preferring the printed word.

Nervously waiting to perform was 19-year-old musician Jake Cropley whom performed his award winning song, On Forever Ye Go. His nerves certainly didn’t get the better of him, as he gave a performance the duchess said she thoroughly enjoyed. His greatest fan in the room however, was his grandfather, David Griffiths.

“I certainly teared up,” he said.

“It was just wonderful.”

The duchess then addressed the room, She said how pleased she was to be back in New Zealand for her second visit. “Espe-

cially here in Dunedin, a place where writers, books and culture thrive. Afterall, there can’t be many cities where you can get a poem every time you get a parking ticket!”

The Duchess was, of course, referring to Poetick, a creation that shares poetry through specially designed parking meters.

Camilla then went on to discuss one of her great passions - books, and how this great love came to be.

“I was so lucky to have a father, an ardent bibliophile, who read to us night after night throughout our childhood. He opened the door to that whole new world of adventure, excitement, joy and sadness.”

The All Blacks have taken the Webb Ellis Cup to the grave of late rugby great, Jerry Collins.

Photos of the players Jerome Kaino, Dan Carter, Ma’a Nonu and Liam Messam with the trophy at the gravesite appeared on social media last night. “Awesome to bring the cup to the USO JC [sic],” said a caption on a photo of the men posted on Instagram

by Liam Messam. Uso means brother in Samoan. Carter posted a similar photo. “Good to share this one with the brother. Love you JC,” said the caption on Carter’s Instagram account. Collins and his partner Alana Madill died in a car accident in France on June 5.

All Blacks welcomed Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of central Christchurch to give the All Blacks a rousing Canterbury welcome when the World Cup came to town yesterday.

Fans had been waiting since early in the morning – some for more than five hours – to ensure they got good spot to snap photos and cheer the team. The All Blacks rode through the crowd like a victorious army, the Webb Ellis Cup held high, the spoils of victory for a tough World Cup campaign. Coach Steve Hansen told the crowd: “To all supporters, thanks for getting up at 4am, especially with some of you getting home around that time. I know the Government changed the alcohol bill so the pubs could stay open so I hope you made the most of it.” Captain Richie McCaw said: “On behalf of everyone we’re just so proud we could do the job.

I’m biased I know, but to come down here and see this is great.”

The boys in black travelled through parts of the central city from 2.30pm on the back of utes.

■ SCHOOL INJURIES

Bullrush-related injuries rising

By Lauren PrieStLey Bullrush-related injuries are rising in New Zealand schools, with the latest case seeing two students break bones in Christchurch this week.

But the Ministry of Education says it is up to individual schools to ban the game.

A Year 9 pupil broke his wrist and another boy suffered a leg injury during one lunchtime game of bullrush at Christchurch Boys’ High School on Tuesday.

Another Year 9 student broke his collarbone during a game of bullrush on Wednesday.

And newly-released ACC statistics on bullrush claims show the number of injuries associated with the game are on the rise.

Figures show there were 492 claims made for bullrush injuries in 2014, compared to 383 in 2010.

The difference in claim cost was more than $45,000.

A steady rise can be seen every year for the past five years - with 411 injuries in 2011, 431 injuries

in 2012 and 482 injuries in 2013.

Ministry of Education spokesperson Katrina Casey said it was up to each individual school to be responsible for the safety of their students.

“All schools are responsible for the health and safety of their students and they generally make very sensible decisions about the children in their care,” she said.

“Schools will make decisions about how best to protect the health and safety of their students by taking into account their own

policies as well as wider legislation.”

Christchurch Boys’ High School principal Nic Hill said the latest incident was sad for the boys involved, but the school saw about 12 broken limbs every year from students playing sport or games.

There was no malice involved in the incidents and the school was not considering banning bullrush, he said.

Bullrush has never been banned at the school.

“Look, injuries happen with

sport. We have about a dozen breaks a year and that’s playing sport, playing at lunchtime, PE lessons. I don’t want to get into ‘Is it a good thing, banning bullrush’ or anything like that. That’s just what kids do.

“Everyone was willing participants, but sadly, some boys got hurt.”

Mr Hill said he was standing alongside teachers watching the games on the field this week when the injuries occurred.

Lochinver Station sold One of New Zealand’s largest farms - valued at over $70 million – has sold.

Lochinver Station, in the central North Island, was sold for an undisclosed sum to privately owned New Zealand farming group Rimanui Farms Ltd. Rimanui Group will take over the 13,843-hectare sheep and beef station – that has a capital value of more than $70 million – in March.

The property has been owned by the Stevenson Group Ltd for more than 50 years.

Bayleys Real Estate managing director Mike Bayley said the sale came after an application by Chinese company, Pure 100, was declined by the Overseas Investment Office.

“Since the original sales contract was signed over 14 months ago, prices for top quality sheep and beef farms have risen significantly, primarily on the back of a very strong beef sector,” he said.

“The Stevenson Group has also undertaken approximately $3.5m worth of further capital improvements to the station. A combination of these factors meant that we have been able to attract New Zealand interest in the property at a higher value than was the case early last year when we first marketed the station.”

■ RAKAIA BARRHILL RACE

■ BIG LITTLE THEATRE COMPANY

Change of tack in race closure Play based on Mid Canty’s past It has taken many attempts, but the Ashburton District Council is now changing tack in its efforts to close the Rakaia Barrhill stockwater race.

The closure has been on the council’s books for several years as part of its broad plan to close the stockwater race system that has been part of the district’s rural landscape for more than 100 years.

It has struggled to gain consensus from users on the Rakaia Barrhill race closure and has decided it will now combine the multiple applications for closure of varying sections of the race system as a single application.

At yesterday’s council service delivery committee meeting, councillors formalised the process they will use to achieve race closure.

“It’s been on the books for at least five years and there’s been a bit of aggro between the people whose farms it runs through and the people in the Rakaia

settlement,” said councillor Stuart Wilson.

To work through the proposed closure in the fairest way, the council has opted to have the closure classified as a ‘significant’ event and to treat all applications for closure as one.

By doing that it ensures an independent commissioner will be appointed to hear submissions on the proposal and to make a final decision.

In making the call to follow this path, the council is aware it may be criticised for delaying the process because of the process that will have to be followed with surveys prepared, distributed, returned and responses prepared for a hearing.

However, if it did not combine closure applications, the significance status of the project could be altered and the council could then be criticised for short cutting the process.

An original piece of theatre based on a story from Mid Canterbury’s past will be developed at the Big Little Theatre Company’s upcoming summer school.

Summer Theatre School 2016 will be held from January 18 to 22, and will offer dance, hip hop, physical theatre, comedy, improvisation, puppetry and maybe even stilt walking.

Director Jackie Heffernan said she was excited about the calibre of the artist in residence. It was Wellington-based performer, director, writer and facilitator Nicola Pauling. Ms Pauling was director of the Voice Arts Trust, having led many of the trust’s successful projects.

“She is passionate about devised theatre, supporting people and communities to creatively explore and tell their own stories,” Mrs Heffernan said.

And it was Mid Canterbury’s own story which would feature in the piece of theatre to

come from the summer school, which is for seven to 17-year-olds.

“As always we plan to inspire our young performers with a mix of fast-paced and exciting practical workshops leading to a great piece of theatre they can own and be proud to be a part of. We hope to tell our story in festival fashion.

“This is an awesome opportunity for them to extend their skills by working with industry professionals from outside of town. They also have an opportunity to take a key role in this project.”

Mrs Heffernan was looking forward to being able to offer tuition in a range of skills, but at this point was still trying to confirm a stilt walker.

The school is a popular event for youngsters on Mid Canterbury’s school holiday calendar, and last year Mrs Heffernan had to turn away students when classes filled up.

Early bird enrolments are until November 12.

■ MOUNT HUTT COLLEGE PRIZEGIVING

A year of focused study pays off

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Mount Hutt College 2015 dux Ralf Ritchie decided this would be the year he would study the hardest he ever had in his whole life.

It paid off when he received the top academic award at the college’s senior prize giving last night.

Following the ceremony, Ralf mentioned the speech given earlier in the evening by Rhys Fitzgerald, where the head boy said making mistakes was a crucial part of learning.

Ralf could relate to this and said his mistake had been not studying hard enough in Year 11 and 12, when he only “did alright” at his subjects.

But once he decided he wanted to study engineering at university, he knew he would have to put the effort in.

Study has been a big part of his life ever since, even including sometimes staying awake a whole night to finish a project, as he had a couple of days ago in order to finish his portfolio in graphics and art.

Taking out the proxime accessit award was Abigail Fergus. She plans to study health sciences at Otago, and become a researcher.

From Ashburton, she said Mount Hutt College had been the right choice for her, she had met a lot of nice people and it had been “a really good community to be part of”.

Guest speaker Pup Chamberlain also referred to Rhys’s speech about making mistakes.

But while Rhys’s mistake had been sleeping through his alarm and walking in late to a school assembly, Mr Chamberlain’s had been getting two speeding tickets, an admission which attracted laughter and applause.

“And I can’t promise there won’t be a third, I will try.”

Mr Chamberlain related to the Year 13s leaving behind a major part of their lives at the college, he himself would be quitting the police after 38 years early next year.

Ticketing machines around the city have been unable to marry the imagery on the new notes, released last month, with what they are programmed to accept.

Software updates would provide the solution, and would be in place for some of the city’s machines as early as today, Dunedin City Council fleet and parking operations team leader Reece Smith said.

The council’s seven affected machines were in its three car parking buildings, but they were still accepting credit cards, eftpos cards and other forms of cash.

The machines would not accept the A d vnew i c enotes • T because r u s t • they C awere r e set up to be Countdown Complex, East Street, Ashburton extremely sensitive to fake bank notes, he Phone: 03 308 6733 Fax: 03 308 6755 said. Any changes to the notes registered

as a forgery. The problem was not new – every time New Zealand’s banknotes were changed in any way the machines had to be re-programmed.

The necessary software solution had been emailed yesterday to the council by the machines’ Austrian suppliers, Mr Smith said.

Council staff would use that software to reprogramme the affected machines today.

Mr Smith said all the affected councilowned machines had intercom buttons and motorists were urged to use them if they had any problems.

Staff members helping affected motorists had the discretion to allow motorists free parking. “Generally, we’d be more lenient because it’s our problem, not their problem, and [the new notes] are legal tender.”

In brief The new drug mule As prison guards in one of Brazil’s notoriously overcrowded and chaotic jails, the officers in Barra da Grota prison probably thought they had seen it all. But last week they saw something that shocked even their hardened heads: a mouse, they noticed, was being used by inmates to courier drugs.

The animal was seen scurrying along the corridor with tiny bags of drugs tied to its tail, running between the cells. Gean Carlos Gomes, director of the central Brazil prison, 1770km inland from Recife, said the mouse was being used as a “bridge” between cells.

Phoenix prepare for the red carpet treatment Ashburton College’s Phoenix Choir members practice this week as they prepare to stage A Red Carpet Evening at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre at 7.30pm tonight. The annual concert, showcasing a wide range of performance talent across the college, is generally a sell-out, said event centre manager Roger Farr. “It’s a brilliant night,” Mr Farr said. The Phoenix Choir is directed by Jo Castelow, and other acts taking the stage include Phoenix Rising Choir, directed by Angie Cresswell, orchestra, directed by Stephen Diedricks, string ensemble, directed by Paula Green, blues band, directed by Michael Petrus, and a selection of senior students.

Keeping the party flag flying

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Labour Party members in the Rangitata electorate will install a candidate early as they aim to raise the party’s profile leading into the 2017 General Election.

The decision follows a disastrous choice of candidate for last year’s election, when Timaru businessman Steve Gibson embarrassed the party with a number of outbursts.

Hinds Early Childhood Centre owner Jo Luxton is a potential unconfirmed candidate this time round, however, the process remains open for other contenders.

The Labour Electorate Committee (LEC) chairperson Glen Cameron said the committee

would be applying to the party’s governing body for an early selection process.

Early selection would be in the best interests of the large electorate, he said.

“It gives more time for the candidate to get around the whole electorate.

“We want people to know the candidate,” Mr Cameron said.

The party would call for nominations by early in the New Year, and a selection process would be undertaken around March.

It would be a new candidate, as it was last time with Mr Gibson, but instead of an approximate four-month lead in to the election, it would be over one year.

Mr Cameron said Mid Canterbury had had a busy time

since the election, staging the regional conference, and hosting a number of visits from party MPs following last year’s election, including Grant Robertson, Damien O’Connor and Stuart Nash, as well as from the party leader himself, Andrew Little.

In addition, Mr Cameron planned to have the party’s spokesperson for housing, Phil Twyford, visit in February.

“We are going to keep the Labour flag flying high in the electorate and let people know they will see a lot more of us,” Mr Cameron said.

Meanwhile, the party’s annual national conference was this coming weekend, and three delegates from the Rangitata electorate would be attending.

Hundreds of domestic and international flights have already been grounded since the airport shut down on Tuesday.

Indonesia’s head of volcano observation Devy Kamil Syahbana, says Mt Rinjani had an “open-

Evidence suggests a Russian jet that crashed over Egypt’s Sinai desert may have been brought down by a bomb, the British government said, suspending flights to and from the Sinai Peninsula as a precaution.

US intelligence suggests the bomb was planted by Isis or an affiliate, according to a source speaking to CNN. Prime Minister David Cameron’s office said British aviation experts were travelling to the Sinai tourist resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, where the flight that crashed Saturday originated, to assess security before British flights there would be allowed to leave.

A young Pakistani woman died on Tuesday after a rejected suitor set her ablaze for refusing his marriage proposal, a doctor said.

Sonia Bibi, 20, was admitted to hospital last month, where she told police that her former lover Latif Ahmed had doused her with petrol and set her alight after she turned down his proposal. Medical staff had originally said she would recover, but a doctor in Multan’s Nishtar hospital said that Bibi’s injuries had become infected and that she died on Tuesday.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has been named the world’s most powerful person for the second year running by Forbes magazine.

Of the 73 listed, 28 are billionaires.

30 of the individuals are Americans.

And only nine are women - the same number as last year. The 63-year-old Russian President has, unsurprisingly, retained his position at the top of the Forbes ranking of the world’s most powerful people.

A man stands accused of leaving his five-year-old granddaughter alone in the Arizona desert with a handgun, which was loaded and cocked, authorities say. Paul Rater, 53, was arrested on two counts of child abuse and one count of child endangerment, according to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. Rater’s granddaughter was returned to a parent after the incident, after authorities had used a helicopter to search extensively for the child.

“She was given the gun and told to shoot any bad guys,” Arpaio said.

Celebrate the work that carers do Sue Newman

ACTING EDITOR

T

here’s a large group of workers in any community that flies under the radar.

They’re the people who do the tough jobs, the jobs that come with low wages and often with little recognition, but they’re the jobs that keep the world turning, the jobs that make a difference.

Take the lot of carers, the people whose job it is to help those who are unable to help themselves, unable to do many of the basic life functions the young and the able-bodied take for granted.

Across Ashburton’s aged-care facilities there are hundreds of carers who work to make the twilight years of residents a little brighter.

They take care of their physical needs and often they provide social and emotional care as well.

A good carer can make a world of difference in an elderly person’s life.

The work they do is invaluable, but it’s often under-valued.

Carers certainly don’t do what they do for the money, they’re motivated by something else, a desire to help and support people who are at the end of their lives, the frail, the lonely and the often afraid.

It is even more impressive when you look at most aged care facilities and realise that many of their carers have been working in the same job, in the same care facility for decades, doing the job because they love the people they work with.

They know that if they make a small difference to one life every day, they’ve done their job.

A carer’s lot is not an easy one.

The job is one that many people could not imagine doing, but without those people who are prepared to give so much of themselves for so little tangible reward, our world would be a much poorer place.

This week Ashburton loses another of its senior carers who has spent more than 20 years on the job.

In many jobs that would not be worth a mention, but in the aged care world, it’s significant.

Over those years she will have done a million small things that have brightened the day of hundreds of elderly people.

fter some very busy days in San Francisco and Memphis it was nice to make our way to my uncle’s place in Lexington Virginia. Grant and Sue Blackburn have about 16 acres (mostly woods) just outside Lexington city.

Sitting on their second storey deck you watch squirrels in the trees and hummingbirds at the feeder. Through the trees are the majestic Blueridge Mountains. It is just magic and a superb spot to recharge the batteries after a big flight and busy few days. It is very peaceful, apart from when the donkey (to keep coyotes away from the chooks) bursts into song.

We paid our respects to Stonewall Jackson, the Confederate General who is buried in Lexington.

We also paid our respects to every brewery within a 100 mile radius. Several have popped up in the three years since I was last there. Only fair we compare each one eh?

My favourite was the Blue

Phill Hooper OFF THE AIR

Mountain Brewery and Restaurant. As you’ve probably guessed it’s in the Blueridge Mountains and looks out on the Shenandoah Valley. John Denver was pretty much right when he called it Almost Heaven.

We were refreshed and ready to tackle Washington DC next.

Washington DC is a really cool city, it’s nice and clean and has a friendly and welcoming vibe about it. As we were there for only two days we picked up a hop-on hop-off bus ticket each and went hard out to get around all the sights the city has to offer.

So many iconic American spots to visit!

It was surreal standing in front of the case holding the hat Abra-

ham Lincoln was wearing when he was shot or Dorothy’s red slippers from the Wizard of Oz. The Smithsonian Museums in DC are amazing!

Another surreal moment came at the Archives building while standing front of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution.

I’ll never forget standing on the spot where Martin Luther King delivered his “I have a dream” speech, the same spot Forrest Gump reunited with Jenny, at the Lincoln Memorial.

Arlington Cemetery is a must see, including the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the eternal flame at John F. Kennedy’s grave.

The Washington Monument is an impressive sight and then you learn it has no cement. It is held together block on block by gravity alone!

A sombre moment came for us at the Vietnam War Memorial, not the huge wall containing the names of the thousands that lost their lives, but at a statue nearby.

A Vietnam Vet was sitting beside the statue in tears. Gulp!

Of course you can’t go to the capital without popping in on the man in charge. Another pinchyourself moment, standing in front of the White House.

Three years ago I took the train from DC to New York and while waiting for our delayed flight I couldn’t help but wish we had done the same this time.

I highly recommend the train trip rather than flying, you get to see more of the country (daytime trips obviously) and it concludes smack bang in amongst it in New York and not a $US52 taxi fare away at JFK. Live and learn!

Next week, New York.

Till then, hoo roo.

Air NZ unveils $569m fleet buy

BY FIONA ROTHERHAM

Air New Zealand is purchasing 15 new ATR72-600 aircraft worth a total $US375 million as regional competition hots up.

Chief executive Christopher Luxon announced the new aircraft at a press conference in Auckland, attended by Prime Minister John Key. Eleven of the new aircraft will replace the airline’s ageing 72500 fleet while the remaining four will allow for growth on regional routes on which Air New Zealand is facing fresh competition from Qantas offshoot, Jetstar.

Air New Zealand has said the extra seating capacity on the new aircraft

“

... the airline was committed to operating a world-leading turboprop fleet

means it will be able to be more competitive on price fares this year and passengers can expect to see over 2 million fares under $100 this financial year.

Three years ago Air New Zealand said it would invest in 14 of the 72-600 aircraft, of which seven have since been delivered and the remaining seven will arrive by the middle of next year. The 15 additional aircraft are due to arrive at the end of

next year. Mr Luxon said the airline was committed to operating a world-leading turboprop fleet and a comprehensive regional network.

“The extra four 68-seat ATR72600 that we are adding to our fleet will enable us to operate up to an additional 600,000 seats into the New Zealand regional market

annually,” Mr Luxon said.

Once the new aircraft arrive, the airline will have a fleet of 29 ATR aircraft, the third largest in the world, to service the regional network. In addition, Air New Zealand also currently operates 10 19seat Beech 1900D and 23 50-seat Bombardier Q300 aircraft.

At the company’s annual meeting last month, Luxon said the airline is spending $2.6 billion in the next four years on new aircraft, including a further seven Dreamliners.

Overall fleet capacity will increase 11 per cent this

year compared to 12 per cent last year which Mr Luxon said was the fastest it had grown in the airline’s 75-year history.

The country’s national carrier also said increased demand due to buoyant tourism and lower fuel prices had strengthened its outlook for the first half of the 2016 financial year with a forecast $400 million profit before tax compared to $216 million in the previous corresponding period.

The market week in review T

his week’s Global Dairy Trade auction saw a second consecutive drop in dairy prices.

This was widely expected by the market, with the futures market pricing in a 5 per cent drop in the lead up to the auction. The key product group for New Zealand, whole milk powder, slumped 8 per cent moving it further from the target price Fonterra have indicated it requires to maintain the current payout level. Overall prices dropped 7.4 per cent.

Numbers released Wednesday showed that the unemployment rate in New Zealand rose to 6 per cent, the highest level in three years. Of more importance than the headline rate, the number of jobs dropped during the September quarter, when the market was expecting an increase.

The participation rate also fell slightly to 68.6 per cent, down from 69.3 per cent in the previous quarter. The kiwi dollar fell following the announcement and expectations for the Reserve Bank of New Zealand to cut rates in December have now increased.

The Reserve Bank of Australia was in focus this week as it met to decide whether to hold rates or to cut. The market was split down the middle in the days leading up to the decision so undoubtedly there would be some market reaction. On the morning of the meeting sentiment shifted to a rate hold and this is the course of action the bank took.

The commentary following the decision was reasonably upbeat with Governor Glenn Stevens commenting that the non-mining sectors of the economy are taking up the slack caused by the wilting resources sector. Stevens also

Jeremy Flood ON THE MARKETS

noted that there are promising signs that the labour market is improving. However, an easing bias remains due to lingering concerns around slowing global growth, particularly in China, and persistently low inflation.

Markets will now look to the December meeting for a possible rate cut.

China was in focus again this week, with the latest manufacturing data once again showing a contraction. This is the third consecutive month of contraction within the sector and is reflective of the weakening growth both in China and around the globe.

The result wasn’t all doom and gloom, however, as the contraction was smaller than expected.

The release has spurred further discussion that the government will need to implement further stimulus to jump start growth.

Federal Reserve chairwoman Janet Yellen spoke for the first time publicly following last week’s Fed meeting. Her commentary pointed to a possible December lift-off for the first rate hike but reiterated that rates would rise slowly from there. Low unemployment and continued growth from the US economy coupled with the belief that inflation will return to targeted levels, appear to be the catalysts for the rate rise. The market is now pricing in a 60 per cent chance for the first rate rise to come in December,

increasing from around 50 per cent earlier in the week. US markets took a breather from gains following Yellen’s speech as a rate hike would lessen the attractiveness of equities.

Reporting season in the US has continued this week, though has slowed significantly from the last few weeks with only a handful of companies reporting. Of the companies that have reported so far, 44.4 per cent have beaten expectations on the revenue level while 73.5 per cent have beaten expectations on the earnings level. This has been a consistent theme for the third quarter reporting season with companies implementing cost cutting initiatives and share buy back programmes. Revenues have been hampered by currency headwinds as the US dollar continues to strengthen.

Visa’s quarterly result was largely in line with expectations. However, overshadowing the result was the announcement of the large acquisition of Visa Europe, which has been speculated about for years. The acquisition will reunite the company the transition will see a reduction in costs and will help to accelerate the transition in Europe from cash payments to electronic payments.

The acquisition will add to the company’s financial strength and operational scale. Visa Europe is currently responsible for 1.5 trillion euro of payments through its 500 million cards on issue.

In brief Cleary ‘open to offers’ Axed Penrith coach Ivan Cleary has returned from his holiday in the Maldives, saying he is hoping to get back into coaching immediately.

Sacked last month by the Panthers who claimed Cleary was burnt out and needed a break, the former Warriors mentor said he had never lost his hunger to coach. Cleary, who has been linked to the Wests Tigers and Warriors with both respective coaches Jason Taylor and Andrew McFadden under fire, says he is open to offers. “I have not spoken to any other club about a head coaching job,” Cleary said yesterday. “What I will say is that I am absolutely committed to being a head coach.

Lolohea determined

Bob Riseley is one of four male players in their 80s still going strong at the Hampstead Tennis Club.

Still going ace at 88

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

The majority of 88-year-olds would consider their sporting days behind them, but not Bob Riseley, who continues to take to the tennis courts three afternoons a week in Hampstead and Allenton.

Riseley has been a member of the Hampstead Club since 1967 and plays at the Hampstead courts on Mondays and Wednesdays, before playing on the grass in Allenton on Saturdays.

Along with Sandy Banks and Donaldson brothers Reg and Gilbert, the Hampstead club boasts four male 80-somethings, of which Riseley is the oldest.

Bob was unsure of the ages of the ladies, but did confirm that local tennis stalwart Molly Fegan, who is in her late 90s, still makes time to watch.

“Molly Fegan played until she was 94.

“She still comes around on her mobile scooter and she sits at the pavilion and watches us,” he said.

Riseley moved north from Invercargill in 1967, and joined the club when his daughter Elaine asked him to have a hit with her.

“David Frew was the club captain then, he was manning a net and asked if I’d play on Saturdays,” he said.

Bob Riseley, second left on the back row, with his A-Grade Mixed Competition winning team from the 1982-83 season.

“I said ‘I’ll play if you’re short,’ I thought they’d have a lot of young people wanting to get into a team, but he said that they were short every Saturday.”

Riseley won four Mixed AGrade titles before moving on to the Masters’ grade, but being part of an ageing community of players means some of his former

team-mates are no longer with us.

“Quite a few friends I’ve made have died recently, I played a lot of doubles with Denys (Patterson),” he said.

“He played up until about a year ago, in our seniors, Denys and I were often put together, they reckoned we were a crafty pair.

“We often won where somebody else would be losing in the team, but we’d find a way through our game.”

Bob will turn 89 in February and is hoping to continue to play for as long as possible, encouraging anyone interested to pick up a racquet and take to the courts, regardless of age.

“I’d like to be still playing when I’m 90, it depends on the body.

“If I can still go out and be competitive, I’ll still play, but if I’m useless I won’t carry on,” he said.

“It keeps you active and your mind thinking too, and the social aspect is important.

“We welcome anybody at the Hampstead courts to come and have a hit with us, we’re often getting new players.”

Although the nature of the game and the friendly atmosphere has been the same at the Hampstead Club since Bob joined almost half a century ago, he insisted that he is much happier with modern racquets.

“The racquets have changed more than anything, they definitely make a difference to your game,” he said.

“Although we go out to win we have a good few laughs, especially around here at our social tennis in Hampstead.”

Federer and Nadal impress in Paris Masters Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have both made short work of their second-round opponents to reach the last 16 at the Paris Masters.

Between them, the two tennis greats have just one win in what is traditionally the last of the year’s nine Masters 1000 series events, that coming in 2011 when Feder-

er defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the final.

Nadal, who has missed the Paris Masters tournament several times through injury, reached

the final in 2007, but lost.

But the manner of their play yesterday sent a clear message to their rivals that they are both primed for success this year.- AFP

Tui Lolohea knows all about the doubters. The new Kiwis halfback realises - almost whether he performs or not in the second test on Sunday morning - there will be critics, those who think Benji Marshall should be on the tour instead. The absence of Marshall became the biggest talking point around the team’s selection, and last Monday’s patchy display in Hull did little to quell that debate among his vocal supporters. “We are trying to build something here,” said Lolohea. “People probably think we are not the ideal halves but we were put in this position for a reason. Stephen Kearney has a lot of faith in us and I just need to keep playing my way of footy in a style I like to play.”

V8s set to roar in NZ V8 Supercars series leader Mark Winterbottom hopes past form counts for a lot as he attempts to hold off Craig Lowndes for a maiden championship. The leading pair have landed in New Zealand with the rest of the field for this weekend’s crunch meet at Pukekohe. What was once a procession is now a rejuvenated title race as Lowndes looks to ride his wave of momentum from the endurance races.

After Winterbottom cruised to a Sandown 500 victory, his lead was a commanding 423 points. But Lowndes narrowed the gap by claiming Bathurst and on the Gold Coast he made major in-roads into Winterbottom’s advantage. - AAP

Scotty up for Pukekohe Young New Zealand V8 Supercars racer Scott McLaughlin roared on to the scene with such pizzazz last year he rattled more than a few of the more established racecar cages.

Not since the days of Robbie Francevic in 1986 (when he won the Australian Touring Car Championship) had anyone punted a Volvo around a racetrack in fear of nothing and no one. Most V8 Supercars observers were looking forward to the young Kiwi pushing on strong in 2015. It wasn’t to be. The Volvo struggled - but McLaughlin’s fortunes might be turning. He’s showed some of the speed of old and was up with front-runners at Bathurst and on the Gold Coast. McLaughlin is keen to get back to New Zealand, and Pukekohe specifically. “The Gold Coast race is a little bit like a home event for me because Mum and Dad live there, but Puke is whole different level,” McLaughlin said. “I always look forward to going and racing there.”

Superstar Cricket a hit

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

S

uperstar Cricket has proved a resounding success among Mid Canterbury’s budding cricketers on Wednesday evenings at the Ashburton Domain.

Superstar Cricket is a New Zealand Cricket initiative for boys and girls from 5 to 12 years of age, and designed to help participants learn the basics of the sport.

Director of Mid Canterbury cricket Garfield Charles said the made-for-age game provides the youngsters with the chance to experience the value of teamwork in a fun environment.

“It’s gone surprisingly well.

“We’ve got 50 names down and on both days we’ve had 43, 44 kids,” he said.

“It’s mostly fun, skills based, modified games that teach the fundamentals mostly of the movements involved in the game.”

Charles is hoping the interest will have a knock-on effect in boosting the number of junior teams.

“The idea is to bolster numbers, and out of this we hope after Christmas to generate some sixth grade teams which should translate into bigger junior numbers, just enlarging numbers in general.”

Drug use ‘rife’ in NFL Former NFL quarterback Brady Quinn, who has spent time with seven clubs, told CBS Sports yesterday the rash of major player injuries could be because players are taking performance enhancing drugs. Quinn, taken by Cleveland with the 22nd pick of the 2007 NFL Draft, spent eight seasons in the NFL with Cleveland, Denver, Kansas City, St Louis and the New York Jets. Quinn said that while he was not basing any claims on knowledge or evidence, he noted supplements such as human growth hormone can help players get larger at the expense of making them more injury prone and guessed “40 to 50 per cent of guys are taking something” banned. - AFP

Steve Hanson dies Former NSW State of Origin frontrower Steve Hanson has died at the age of 54. Hanson, who played 108 first-grade games for North Sydney and (the then) Eastern Suburbs from 1985-93, suffered a heart attack a fortnight ago while holidaying in Thailand and died in Sydney on Wednesday night. The prop played Origin for NSW, in the third game of the 1988 series at the Sydney Football Stadium.

Hopoate ‘devastated’ John Hopoate won’t be returning to rugby league as Manly’s SG Ball coach next year, with the NRL reportedly banning the move.

Manly controversially announced the former bad boy as the coach of its under-18 side in October, however the game’s administrators won’t allow it according to Fairfax Media. Hopoate, whose 45 weeks suspended is the most in the history of the NRL, is said to be devastated. “He’s being judged for things that happened 14 or 15 years ago,” a source said.

Pritchard Shield to carry on without Lauriston B

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

Week two of the Pritchard Shield tomorrow will see Methven host Coldstream and Allenton entertain Lauriston, while Tech have a bye following Lauriston B’s withdrawal from the competition.

It was announced last week that Lauriston B will not take any further part in the season due to a lack of personnel, which will force a bye in each round for the rest of the 45-over competition.

Despite the loss of a team, round one did not disappoint as Methven downed Tech by 18 runs.

With Tech’s wicket unplayable, the fixture was moved to the artificial wicket in Methven, and the runs kept coming after the home side won the toss and elected to bat.

Openers Mitchell Sim and Davey Maw produced a fine partnership, surpassing 100 runs in quick time, but just as Methven looked likely to post a big total, Ben Mably removed Maw (49) and Sim (114) to slow the now home side’s momentum.

Methven recorded 234/7 at the end of the 45 overs while Mably was Tech’s chief destroyer, taking 4 for 34.

In reply Henry Cook (37), Jason Morrison (35) and Tom Small (28) performed well with the bat, but with wickets falling at regular intervals, the target became too tall of an order for the defending champions, who were all out for 216.

Lauriston A earned club bragging rights over Lauriston B with a four wicket win.

The B side could only field

nine players and despite a plucky start from Rob Hooper, who top scored with 25, and Caleb Early, who mustered 20, could only put on a paltry 74 from 28 overs while Jeremy Duckmanton (4/12) and Bevan Richan (2/3) were A’s most economical bowlers.

Scott Morgan then went about making inroads in to B’s total and top scored with 46, and while no one else made double figures, Lauriston A chased down the meagre total with four wickets intact.

Reuben Early was the best of Lauriston B’s bowlers, taking 3/13, while Patrick Sandrey took 2/15.

At Coldstream, the home side was staring down the barrel against a traditionally strong Allenton side after electing to bat first and making just 96.

Only three of Coldsteam’s batsmen made it to double figures, with opener Bo Houston top scoring with 21, before Richard Print added 15 in the middle, and Ash Shah recorded 12 at number nine.

Allenton’s Jeremy Punselie took 3/15 and Jack Dudley took 3/17, to put their side in the box seat at the half-way point, but Allenton’s batsmen also struggled and fell five runs short, all out for just 91 in 26 overs.

Man of the match, Coldstream’s Brent Ferguson, was Coldstream’s best with the ball, taking 3/17 off seven overs, while Andrew Bennett took 3/24, and Print cleaned up the lower order with 2/27.

Tomorrow’s fixtures, 12.30pm: Methven v Coldstream, Methven Domain, Allenton v Lauriston, Allenton.

Mongolian Khan’s connections are hopeful the crack stayer will be able to return to New Zealand in about a fortnight’s time. He is making positive progress from the colitis that ruled him out of the Melbourne Cup. “They are really happy with him and he’s off the drip and eating,” trainer Andrew Forsman said. “He seems stable and hopefully he will be able to come home in a couple of weeks.”

Red’s surgery successful Three-time Gr.1 Melbourne Cup runner-up Red Cadeaux has undergone successful surgery for a fractured sesamoid. “The vets have advised me that the surgery went well and that Red Cadeaux is comfortable standing back in his box and has eaten which is fantastic news for all,” trainer Ed Dunlop said. The nine-year-old faltered inside the final 200 metres in Tuesday’s cup and was pulled up by his rider Gerard Mosse. - NZME

Cassidy denied fairytale Jim Cassidy was denied the opportunity to add to his tally of 105 Group One winners with the scratching of Dawnie Perfect from the VRC Oaks. The 52-year-old recently made the shock announcement of his retirement. One of New Zealand’s greatest jockeys, Cassidy won the Melbourne Cup aboard Kiwi and Might And Power. - NZME

Putter switch ‘not a worry’

Open Monday - Friday 7.00am - 6.00pm Saturday 7.30am - 5.00pm Sunday 8.00am - 5.00pm 1.30pm Saturday, November 7 2015

By Steve Larkin Adam Scott’s switch to a conventional putter won’t derail his bid to become a golfing great, his favoured caddy Steve Williams says.

Scott has given up his broomstick putter in the past two tournaments, ahead of a rule change from next year which bans the anchored stroke used with long putters.

Scott initially switched to a long putter in 2011 and won the US Masters two years later - his sole major tournament victory.

“It’s early in the piece but I have caddied the first two tournaments for Adam since he’s changed to the short putter, at the Japan Open and last week at the CIMB Classic,” Williams said yesterday.

“He putted good at the Japan Open, he putted great last week.

“So I don’t see any reason, based on what I have seen for two weeks, that he can’t continue to be a good putter.”

Scott finished second at the CIMB Classic in Kuala Lumpur and tied seventh at the Japan Open in mid-October.

Williams has come out of retirement to caddy for Scott and will be on the Queenslander’s bag for up to 10 tournaments next year, including all four majors.

“My immediate goal is to see Adam win another major championship,” Williams said.

“I have complete faith in him and belief in him that he can do that.

“I have always said to a lot of guys who have won one (major), you have got to win two to be remembered as one of the great players.”

Williams was Scott’s caddy at the 2013 Masters when he became the first Australian to win the coveted tournament and took the job out of friendship and curiosity.

“I have always been good friends with Adam,” he said.

“He has always been so nice to me and someone I have always had a great respect for, but also on the other hand I had wondered why he didn’t do better in the big tournaments.

“I mean, he has had a wonderful career

but the big tournaments, he had not been a factor in.

“So having worked with him a little bit, I could see some pieces of the jigsaw that were missing and some things I thought maybe could change.

“And it was fantastic.

“He had a run for two or three years there where he was the lowest aggregate scorer in the four majors, he was the most consistent player in the majors.

“To be a part of that and see him get No.1 in the world, to be the second Australian to do that, was absolutely fantastic.” - AAP

Mourinho salutes Daily Events Friday Chelsea fans Jose Mourinho has paid an emotional tribute to Chelsea’s loyal fans as the beleaguered Blues boss savoured the dramatic 2-1 Champions League win over Dynamo Kiev that earned him a stay of execution.

Mourinho has been under siege from critics who claim his side’s woeful run has left him on the verge of the sack.

“This is my moment. When I came back to this club and we played the first match against Hull, the way the stadium welcomed me was amazing, but it is not comparable to today,” Mourinho said.

And with Chelsea’s defence of the Premier League title in tatters, Mourinho looked a dead man walking when Aleksandar Dragovic cancelled out his earlier own goal in the closing stages.

But winger Willian came to Mourinho’s rescue when he unleashed his latest fabulous free-kick to secure a vital victory that put Chelsea’s bid to reach the last 16 back in their own hands.

YOUR STARS ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): You need to relax, but not completely. One eye needs to stay awake, focused on your next move. Otherwise, you’ll miss a rather rare opportunity.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): If you have hobbies it’s easier to distract yourself from negativity. That’s why, even though there is little negativity in this day, it’s still a fine time for cultivating new hobbies.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You need a bigger team.

This is the bottom line, the top line, and everything in between today. Get more people. You deserve your own cheering section, too.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): Your fantasy life is rich now, but instead of planning your escape to a paradise island, use imagination to see some magic and wonder in your current scene.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): There’s something you used to love, follow or ritualise that no longer seems to have a natural place in your life. Things change. This is a good day for moving on.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Your mind will drift to things you said and did long ago. For better or worse, these things can’t be changed. When a loved one needs you, you’ll snap right back to the now.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Venture out alone and you’ll succeed. Listen up and you’ll hear the powerful and knowing voice of your own instinct. There’s another voice around you now, as misguided as it is prolific. Block that one out.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): You’ll get more than one chance to make a deal, though you should know it is more favourable to act on the first one.

Fresh enthusiasm will create momentum.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Relationships are gold. You’re like an artist creating a masterpiece of personal connection. Tonight, new ideas will pop over your head like bubbles in champagne.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): In moments when you feel lost, try to remember that even the most confident people are not certain all of the time.

Pause for a breath. It won’t be long before you realise that you know more than you thought.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): You expect something else from life than others are hoping for — nothing better, just different. Regardless of these differences, your interests will coincide nicely with the interests of those around you.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Time will tell whether today’s move will bring you closer to the goal. You either believed in it or not. You won’t do anything until you’re absolutely sure you can stand behind it.

Too little, too late. James Neesham (centre) celebrates with his Black Caps team-mates after taking the prized wicket of Australian opening batsman David Warner yesterday. Unfortunately Warner had 163 runs beside his name when he was dismissed.

Twin tons embarrass Black Caps

BY DAVID LEGGAT New Zealand were mauled at the Gabba yesterday and their hopes and aspirations for the first test may also have been irreparably damaged.

They are now left, barring a

spectacular comeback today, facing the prospect of having to scrap to save the opening match in the three-test rubber.

Australia will start the second day at 389 for two, with Usman Khawaja having completed his maiden century, 102, and Steven

Cleary open to coaching offers P16

Smith, 41, making it all look too easy.

New Zealand, having lost the toss, were simply not effective or consistent enough on a pitch expected to quicken up in the next two days.

Just the right time, then, for the

Mitchells, Johnson and Starc to be zinging the ball at New Zealand’s batsmen, at a significantly faster pace than their batsmen faced yesterday.

With the exception of Tim Southee, New Zealand’s bowlers leaked like a dodgy tap. That

said, David Warner and co were outstanding. Warner’s demeanour and utterances may not be to universal taste, but he played it smart yesterday.

New Zealand needed to have a hard think last night about what lies ahead today.
