Residents reeling after week’s events

BY COLIN ENGELBRECHT COLIN.E@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

IN TODAY’S GUARDIAN

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is set to wow Ashburton audiences.

A week of crime has left Ashburton residents fearing for their town, but a sociologist says it may just be a phase.

Doctor Jarrod Gilbert, sociologist at University of Canterbury, said he wasn’t aware of much gang activity in Ashburton.

“It may just be a blip, a spate of crimes, it might not amount to much in the medium or long-term,” he said.

He said with young people their offending is sometimes just a fad they grow out of.

“In recent years we’ve seen the emergence of new styles of youth gangs that do conform to more American ideals of gangs, those Bloods and Crips ideals.

“They spring up and fade away and are fluid and fleeting, the kids grow out of it,” he said.

Last weekend police arrested two youths after a burglary at Robbie’s Bar and Bistro on Saturday night.

That same night there was an attempted arson at Tinwald School and a car on Catherine Street was set alight.

Senior Sergeant Scott Banfield said on Monday the youths connected to the Robbie’s burglary were also strong suspects in the car arson case.

On Monday night police were called

by Ashburton Hospital staff after three adults received treatment following an alleged attack by eight people armed with baseball bats.

Senior Sergeant Banfield said the vic-

tims were unco-operative and refused to make a formal complaint.

Police attended a McDonald Street property on Wednesday following a fatal stabbing.

Tainui James Wano, 25, has been named as the victim and a 23-year-old man has been charged with murder.

Many people have expressed their anger about the crimes on the Facebook.

Some posts have gone so far to suggest forming vigilante groups to deal with the offending.

■ ASHBURTON TRADING SOCIETY

Acting chief executive named as new CEO Ashburton-based farmer co-operative ATS has not had to look far when appointing its new chief executive Rob Sharkie.

His appointment comes three months after he took over as acting chief executive following the departure of long-time executive Neal Shaw.

ATS chairman Phil McKendry said Sharkie’s appointment as permanent chief executive was one the board did not have to wrestle over before making it official this week.

“We are delighted to appoint Rob into this position and have every confidence he is the right person for the job.”

He said Sharkie brought a deep level of understanding about what made their farmer shareholders tick and what it was that kept ATS a relevant, competitive and service-focused co-operative.

“This is at a time when the level of choice offered to farmers in the retail and service space has never been greater.”

Sharkie’s appointment comes as ATS pushes on with the development of its Ruralco brand, which is expanding the co-operative’s reach to farmers across the country. There are around 20,000 active Ruralco cardholder members using a growing network of suppliers who accept the card.

Despite tough times in

Rob Sharkie the retail service sector, ATS is experiencing strong turnover through its rural retail outlets, the co-op said.

Sharkie said his focus would remain on keeping the co-operative’s overheads as low as possible, to meet its key goal of making farmers’ lives easier and keeping their costs as low as possible.

“We now have a very well-formed tight senior management team and we are all committed to that goal.”

Alongside Sharkie is procurement manager Jono Pavey, chief financial officer/Ruralco GM Oliver O’Neill and people and capability manager Sarah Green.

McKendry said Green had stepped up from her long-time position as executive assistant, bringing her experience in human resources to the management table.

■ EXPEDITION SOUTH

Lauriston School students give tractor trek driver a fiver Tractor trekkers on a mission to save Sir Edmund Hillary’s hut in the Antarctic pulled into Lauriston School on their southbound journey yesterday.

The three tractor convoy left Hillary Beach in Piha three weeks ago heading for Mt Cook.

Travelling at about 20km/h the drivers hope to be within view of the mountain’s Hillary Ridge in another five days and will have covered 2012km – the same distance the

Hillary expedition covered on the journey to the South Pole.

Two of the tractors are the same model as those used in the Antarctic 60 years ago, accompanied by a new Ferguson MF5600.

Sir Ed led the team supporting the trans-Atlantic Expedition. When the task was over Sir Ed, along with Peter Mulgrew, Murray Ellis, Jim Bates and Derek Wright made a decision to push on aboard three Ferguson TE-20 tractors.

Arriving at the South Pole on January 4, 1958, the team become the first overland expedition to reach the pole since Captain Robert Falcon Scott in 1912 and creating history as the first convoy of vehicles to do so.

The Expedition South tour is asking people to “give the driver a fiver”, stopping at schools and other venues as it wends its way south.

The proceeds will go toward the restoration of Sir Ed’s hut.

■ BIG LITTLE THEATRE COMPANY

Theatre company feeling proud

By Emma moody

Emma.m@thEguardian.co.nz

The Big Little Theatre Company debuts The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe tonight, but it is not their only reason to be excited.

The company have been rehearsing for the show for months and promises to wow the crowd with digital effects.

On top of the opening of the show, the company is celebrating the success of some of its members.

Twenty students from the company chose to prepare for the exams, with the company’s participants ranging from grade 1 to grade 6 and in a variety of performance modes; individual acting skills, acting in pairs and group drama.

Every student who participated in the Trinity College London examinations this year gained a distinction mark, with almost three-quarters of the performers earning a high distinction, meaning they gained a mark over 90 per cent.

Heffernan said that most of the actors who took part in the Trinity College London exams this year are in the show.

“We couldn’t have all of them unfortunately but most of them will be,” she said.

This is the company’s latest success of the year, after taking a play to Theatrefest, which is a Theatre

The Big Little Theatre Company has been rehearsing for months and their hard work will pay off tonight when they perform The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre. The show will run tonight and tomorrow night at 7pm and on Sunday at 2pm.

“Not bad for a little wee youth drama company from little wee Ashburton,” Heffernan said.

Residents reeling after week’s events Still a strong police presence at scene From P1 However, frontline groups like Talbot Security have strongly advised against it.

Owner Dean Talbot took to social media to encourage those talking about taking matters into their own hands to think again.

“I’m not really liking what I’m hearing from mature adults who are supposed to be leading by example,” he posted.

“Threatening to bash them with a bat is not a good thing. Remember these kids and offenders

read these posts and if they are hearing you talk about weapons and bashing them, what do you think they are going to do? They will start arming themselves,” he said.

Many people have asked for suggestions on how the town’s youth can better spend their time.

John Hobbs, community development adviser for the Ashburton District Council, said the Youth Council was focusing on recruiting for the 2017 council.

Members have the opportunity

to learn about how the council works while making decisions on how to give back to their peers.

Previously the Youth Council has worked on a number of projects aimed at giving young people something to do.

An upcoming project is the Balmoral Bash, a youth concert featuring a number of live bands.

Another successful project was the Weird and Wonderful Ways to Have Fun map, which featured over 100 different activities young people could enjoy in the area.

Scene investigations continued yesterday at the Ashburton house at the centre of a murder inquiry.

A 23-year-old Ashburton man was arrested overnight on Tuesday and charged with murdering Tainui James Wano, also of Ashburton, at the property.

The accused man appeared in Christchurch District Court on Wednesday morning where he was granted interim name suppression, pending his next ap-

pearance in Timaru.

Wano, 25, was pronounced dead at the scene about 10.30pm on Tuesday. Police issued a statement saying he had died as a result of stab wounds.

The Housing New Zealand property at 21 McDonald Street remained cordoned off with a number of police officers still on site yesterday.

Police officially released Wano’s name yesterday afternoon.

Minister gets local input

By Linda CLarke and SuSan SandyS Several Mid Canterbury businesses had the ear of the Minister of Small Business Craig Foss this week.

Foss and members of the Small Business Development Group spent a day in the district, visiting two farms, a café and an engineering firm, before a dinner function at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre hosted by Business Mid Canterbury (BMC).

The development group is a national collection of small business owners and includes Mid Canterbury’s Neil Pluck, owner of Pluck’s Engineering in Rakaia.

Pluck’s workshop was the first stop after the group departed Christchurch Airport, then they headed to Molloy Contracting at Methven to look at the agribusiness’ agronomy, spraying and dairy farm operations.

Then they lunched at Maria’s in Methven before heading to Ashburton via Craige and Roz Mackenzie’s precision agriculture farm and business.

Pluck said each stop had a different focus, providing insight into the district’s effluent and dairy farming sector, rural retail and water and nutrient budgeting issues.

Each host was encouraged to talk about regulatory issues holding their business back as well as things the Government had done that had made their lives easier.

It was a great chance to get close to those impacting on policy, he said.

The business development group, which has 12 members, advises the government on issues affecting the growth and development of small businesses.

Pluck was invited to join the group three years ago and members visit different regions annually to see small businesses in action.

He said it was important the minister saw businesspeople at the coalface and heard firsthand how Government policy affected them.

In brief Officers graduate Forty new police officers graduated from the Police College at Porirua yesterday. Police Minister Judith Collins joined family and friends to celebrate the attestation parade of Wing 299. The diverse wing includes members from South Korea, Kuwait, Scotland, Tonga, Chile and even Lesotho. The graduating recruits have degrees in geology, criminology, earth sciences and tourism management. Some have other qualifications such as construction and building management; and apprenticeships in building and construction. Some are highly trained and competitive sports men and women, who have competed in athletics, Gaelic football, rugby, rugby league, football and rowing. Their graduation follows an 18-week training course.

Police pursuit A driver who fled police during a 50km rampage across North Canterbury and Christchurch yesterday was caught hiding in garage roof rafters. The pursuit began in Amberley yesterday morning after reports of a stolen quad bike from a farm property.

It finished almost two hours later in the suburb of Woolston, after the male driver ploughed past police roadblocks, through roadworks at speed, through private suburban properties and out their back fences, along river banks and even over a golf course. It ended with a police dog tracking him to a roof space in Cob Crescent in Woolston where he was arrested.

The Mid Canterbury visit was also a chance to show that Ashburton District took its agricultural work and lifestyle seriously and wanted to use the latest technology to improve production and be sustainable.

The group arrived at Molloys yesterday to find a newborn calf on the milking platform – its breach birth had been assisted by the farm’s sharemilker.

As the mother licked the calf and it took its first steps, the members asked how old it was and if it was a boy or a girl.

About two hours and a boy, Molloy said.

“We’ll have to take it with us

White Island settles Cow with new calf. in the bus,” one of the members said, fearing it was destined for the bobby truck. However, they were reassured to learn it was instead to be reared as a beef cow.

Foss said at the farm his first impressions of the Mid Canterbury visit so far were of businesses being innovative and moving with the times.

He would hear about challenges businesses may face later in the day.

“Right now it’s almost a cel-

ebration of innovation, which is really cool,” he said.

The feedback from groups such as the business development group contributed to better policy and made sure the voices of small businesses were heard.

The cost of compliance was a “perennial grumble”.

“Some things we don’t get right straight away, but we try and change those pretty quickly,” he said.

Scientists are now confident White Island’s latest eruptive episode has come to a close. Following a small ash eruption on Tuesday, GNS Science volcanologists have been keeping a watchful eye on the offshore Bay of Plenty volcano.

“Observations made yesterday suggested that the eruption had ceased, and authorities had now lowered its Volcanic Alert Level to 2 and the Aviation Colour code to yellow. Analysis of ash collected on Wednesday shows no evidence that Tuesday’s eruption was driven by new magma,” GNS volcanologist Steve Sherburn said.

■ ASHBURTON ROCK CONCERT

Balmoral Bash fun event for our youth

By Colin EngElBrECht Colin.E@thEguardian.Co.nz

A collaboration between Ashburton Youth Council and Councillor Russell Ellis will see the youth of Ashburton treated to a rock concert next month.

The Balmoral Bash will take place between 8pm and midnight on October 1 in the Balmoral Hall.

Councillor Ellis said he hopes to give the town’s youth something fun to do.

The concert will be alcohol and drug free, Ashburton Community Alcohol and Drugs Service will provide free water and refreshments and snacks will also be sold.

Attendees will have their hands stamped at the door, and Ellis said there is a one-way policy, so once someone leaves they won’t be allowed back in.

This is to stop people going out into the parking lot or other places and potentially drinking and coming back in.

He said the idea for a youth concert came about after listening to many young people saying there was nothing fun to do in Ashburton.

Josiah Penno, a Youth Councillor, said the Youth Council was recruited a couple of months ago to help with planning and adver-

Ashburton Youth Councillors Josiah Penno (left) and Henry Hickman.

tise. However, Councillor Ellis has been working on the project himself for the past five months.

Penno, who is a student at Mt Hutt College, said a sub-committee was formed to get everything going and start spreading the word about the concert.

Councillor Ellis hopes the Balmoral Bash will be successful

enough that they can keep doing them and give the youth something to do.

The concert’s main event will feature live bands and the lineup consists of four bands.

The bands are Born Ready, War Heights, Fusion in the Sun and Wishlistt.

Councillor Ellis’ twin sons are

performing in one of the bands as well.

He said another reason for why he wanted to get the concert going was to have a way to support another form of art.

“There’s just some really talented kids in this town and to get behind them and be supportive is really cool,” he said.

Burglars hit police station Even police aren’t safe from being targeted by burglars.

Police are investigating a number of burglaries in Te Awamutu over the last few days, including the burglary of Te Awamutu Police Station overnight on September 13.

Two office areas were searched and several items of police uniform were taken, including a police tunic and shirts, police baton (extendable and long handled), handcuffs, OC spray and stab-resistant body armour.

A police officer’s personal car was also damaged the following night.

Police want to warn the public that these items could be used to impersonate an officer. Police remind anyone who is approached by an officer to establish their identity if in doubt.

Similarly, anyone acting suspiciously or who does not appear to be genuine should be reported to police.

It is a crime to impersonate a police officer. It’s an offence that has the maximum penatly of 12 months in prison and a $15,000 fine.

Area Commander Inspector Naila Hassan said local police have noticed a spike in dishonesty crime over the past three days in Te Awamutu.

They are also asking the public to be aware of suspicious activity in the neighbourhood.

Indigenous vegetation gets tagged

By SuE nEwman

SuE.n@thEguardian.Co.nz

Mid Canterbury’s rural land might be intensively farmed but there are still many pockets of indigenous vegetation with a recent survey identifying 134 of these along roadsides in the upper plains alone.

Last week ecologist Mike Harding presented a report from a recent roadside survey of the foothills area and said he had found 25 different indigenous plant species across the area.

Identifying those plants was just the first step in ensuring they were protected for the future, he told Ashburton District councillors at last week’s service delivery meeting.

He asked the council to approve $2000 in funding for the installation of 50 marker signs on roadsides from State Highway 72 to the foothills to ensure anyone using those areas were aware of the plants.

The main loss of vegetation had

come from clearance, roadside mowing, grazing, spraying, vehicle damage and competition with other plants. Most of the human intervention was through a lack of awareness, Mr Harding said.

“The challenge with indigenous vegetation on the plains is that we’re dealing with very, very small remnants; most of the original vegetation has disappeared. Tidying up of roadsides is their greatest threat.”

He also recommended an on-

going education programme with land owners and contractors to create awareness so the plants had the best chances of survival.

Mr Harding said he had spoken to most land owners with plants on their roadside, most were aware of the plants and some were actively protecting these.

The first surveys were carried out in the 1990s and since then Mr Harding said, there had been significant change in the sites – 34 per cent had disappeared, 19 per cent

had deteriorated and only 3 per cent had improved.

“Private land sites are not part of our brief but they are a priority for us to survey.”

A similar survey has been completed on the low plains but Mr Harding said the high country also needed to be surveyed so a complete picture could be established of the district’s indigenous plant remnants.

Councillors agreed to fund the marker signs.

■ WASTE-FREE WORKSHOPS

Encouraging sustainable behaviour Kate Meads was once a master waste producer, now she teaches other parents how to produce as little waste as possible.

Meads was in Ashburton yesterday to run two wastefree workshops for the Ashburton District Council. The waste-free parenting workshop and the food lovers master class were both aimed at encouraging sustainable consumer behaviour in the district.

Council’s waste recovery manager Craig Goodwin said council was looking at ways of reducing food waste in the community and the workshops were a fantastic tool for showing residents what could be done to cut down their waste, and at the same time save money.

The parenting workshop also showed mums and dads sustainable products they could use to reduce other household waste.

Meads used her own experience to inspire those at yesterday’s seminars to take

on board her tips and ideas to minimise waste.

She also reminded people their choices had an impact on future generations.

Often referred to as The Nappy Lady, Meads promotes waste-free alternatives for lots of products, with a special focus on using cloth nappies.

She says change can start small and it all helps the bigger cause of protecting the environment.

It is estimated that disposable nappies can make up to 10 per cent of the domestic waste stream – if every baby had just one cloth nappy change per day, it would stop around one million disposable nappies going to landfill every week.

The workshops reinforce the ongoing work of the Love Food Hate Waste campaign, a council-supported programme aimed at empowering the community and providing practical ideas for cutting down the amount of food families throw out.

Waste minimiser Kate Meads talks to Mid Canterbury parents about how they can reduce waste in the home.

OUR VIEW

The stars of Mid Canty’s show Linda Clarke

SENIOR REPORTER

R

unning a small business is not easy.

You own it, work in it, are responsible for the livelihoods of other people, and at the same time you are trying to keep customers coming and have a longterm strategy to stay in business.

My formative years were spent working in the small-town supermarket owned by my parents, who provided a seven-day-aweek service to locals and the surrounding farming community. I learned about money and customer service, and how hard small business owners worked.

My parents did not complain, they put themselves at the bottom of the list after taking care of suppliers and customers, staff and us. And they were active in the community.

Making a small business work profitably over a long period of time is hard work, but small businesses make a significant contribution to the New Zealand economy – something like 97 per cent of enterprises in the country are small businesses with less than 20 employees. They make a big contribution, employing around 30 per cent of the workforce.

No doubt they would be a lot more productive (or manage to take a day off) if they could spend less time and energy dealing with government and its compliance regulations.

So it was a perfect opportunity to have the Minister for Small Business Craig Foss in the district this week, thanks to the connection offered by Rakaia’s Neil Pluck, of Pluck’s Engineering, who is one of 12 people on a national small business development group that advises government.

By all accounts the minister was impressed by what he saw, though I’m sure our local hosts would have taken the opportunity to point out issues that cause them grief.

There are many hard workers in this district – retailers passionate about keeping the CBD vital, farmers passionate about growing food using precision technology to protect the environment, and service people who have a standard 24-7 response team.

These people are the stars of our show.

YOUR VIEW Council buildings There is much comment being made in your paper regarding a possible new site for a civic centre.

The comments by former mayors and councillors lead me to offer my opinion.

It is indeed true that previous councils have been astute in acquiring land close to the present building for future expansion. It is also true that previous councils, through district plans etc, encouraged development of retail on the west side of the railway/state highway. This occurred before I was elected as a councillor in 2001.

The result is that many smaller retailers on the east side have found the past decade of trading to be difficult, as well as other factors.

My thoughts when a councillor were to extend the current building and all would be good.

However, the earthquake in 2010 changed the face of the CBD. As we are all aware, many buildings have been demolished, with

CRUMB

some more to be and many remaining will have to be upgraded to higher NBS standards. I doubt that there will be enough interest and need to rebuild as many buildings as the face of retailing has changed and office requirements are also different to what they once were.

The council owns a lot of land within the CBD through Glasgow leases and this is why they are a 33 per cent partner in the Eastfield development. It is that ownership that gives the council/community a measure of responsibility towards ensuring the CBD is repopulated as much as possible. A civic building can be built in this area and sufficient carparking made available to accommodate both staff and visitors, such as builders, etc.

There is no need to consider Baring Square East at all. The church building is their responsibility alone and the old council building also has significance status.

I think the best long-term solution is to move the police station to the present civic site, demol-

by David Fletcher

ish the present police building, the Balmoral Hall and the old buildings next door on Cameron Street.

This area can then be used for higher density housing and would keep resident population closer to the middle of town.

Long-term view, but a view never-the-less.

Kelvin Holmes

Methodist Church Might we keep things accurate and in perspective please.

Previous published opinion has been much conjecture and Monday’s council release carried inaccuracy; to use Mr Brake’s words “commentary arising from discussion is creating confusion”.

Regarding the Methodist Church, there has not been years of doubt about its future and never has there been indicators of it being uneconomic to repair; uneconomic has not been the conversation anywhere and certainly not to council.

The only official communication (through the church prop-

erty committee), has been in response to an Opus inquiry asking that in the event “that the parish decide not to proceed with the earthquake repairs and restoration works” and if “the parish do decide to sell the property, could this be offered to ADC in the first instance”.

I, on behalf of the administration was able to respond that that inquiry falls “within a possible prospectus of choices and decisions to be made, and that, certainly we welcome your option to remain in the field of possibility at least through (and maybe even beyond) the due diligence for restoration process”.

To my knowledge, that is the only official indicator that have been expressed and we are still working through a due diligence process.

Ashburton’s Methodist Fellowship, also known as the Methodist Church, is first and foremost attentive to its people and the community Christian well-being, and then, will apply consideration to economics and buildings.

Good service is the key to happy customers I

’m sitting here, staring at the screen absolutely wracking my brains as to what I should write about this week.

Some weeks an idea comes really easily and the column flows on to the page quickly and easily.

This ain’t one of those weeks!

I was going to talk about what is going on in our wee town at the moment, with this week’s stabbing, assaults with baseball bats and break-ins.

In fact I got about 200 words out, but it felt like I was bashing my head against a brick wall, talking AGAIN about accountability and consequences for our youth.

When I finished the sentence about those too young for jail being punished by community work with signs around their necks saying ‘I’m a little tosser that rips people off’, I thought yada, yada, yada, been there done that and I hit the delete button.

My other train of thought takes me straight to East Street. I am really stoked to see the council giving the one-hour free parking a trial. It’s great they listened to our retailers and their pleas for assistance.

I was also stoked to read the retailers asking for ideas that could help reignite the CBD. Before I go down this track (next week), can

tone).

I just forked over my hardearned, I shouldn’t feel like I did them a favour. What’s wrong with this?

Phill Hooper OFF THE AIR

I first make a plea to the retailers.

This is not to all the retailers as some of them are brilliant.

SORT YOUR BLOODY SERVICE OUT! Shoppers have a choice nowadays, more so than ever before, especially with online shopping.

So make their experience in your store a pleasant one.

Be friendly and welcome them into your store.

Be polite, it doesn’t hurt one little bit to say please and thank you. They are spending their hard-earned with you, so you should be grateful.

It really hacks me off when I purchase something, even as small as a coffee, and the following happens: Me: “Can I have a Mocha please.”

S.A. (That’s shop assistant, not slack arse): “Yip. That’s $5.”

Me (Passing $5 in change I found behind couch to S.A): “Thanks.”

S.A.: That’s OK (with Kylie Mole

Me: “Can I have a Mocha please.”

S.A.: “Sure thing, that’s $5 please. Are you having a good day?”

Me: “Yeah it’s going ok and about to get better when I have that mocha.”

S.A.: “Ha ha, you’re funny (first time for everything). There you go, one mocha.”

Me: “Thanks a lot.”

S.A.: “Thank you, enjoy the rest of your day.”

Am I being too pedantic? Asking too much?

Here’s an ongoing true story to highlight my point.

Manda and I went into a local store a few weeks ago to purchase an item.

We wandered the length of the business looking for the advertised item. No luck. We caught eyes with four S.A.s (in this case slack arses) before we were asked if we could be helped.

We got looked after by a helpful S.A. (shop assistant) who said the item was out of stock but it could be ordered in.

We went along with this and paid for the item.

Your matters @AshGuardian

Subscribe at www.guardianonline.co.nz

We were told it would be in store no longer than 10 days. If it was any later than that we would be called with an update. After two weeks Manda decided to call for an update, the S.A. (smart arse) sharply informed her that the item had not arrived and that we would be called when it did arrive. No please, thank you, kiss my arse or anything!

After three weeks I called: “Sorry it’s Sunday and I can’t get into my system to find out where it is. I will call you back tomorrow and let you know.”

I phoned on Tuesday because the S.A. (swamped assistant) must have been so busy she couldn’t call. After going through our name, phone number and item description for the umpteenth time, we were informed it had left Wellington on Friday.

Great! Where is it now? Dunno.

Any idea when it will be here? No sorry (here’s the kicker) but we’ll let you know as soon as it arrives!

I am not holding my breath!

■ CHINA

Typhoon slams into China Typhoon Meranti has slammed into southeastern China, bringing strong winds and lashing rain and cutting power in what state media said was the strongest storm of the year globally, but there were no immediate reports of casualties.

The storm, registered as a super typhoon before losing strength after sweeping southern Taiwan, made landfall in the early hours near the major city of Xiamen.

Pictures on state media showed flooded streets in some parts of the province of Fujian, where Xiamen is located, fallen trees and crushed cars.

Dozens of flights and train services have been cancelled, state television said, inconveniencing people at the start of the three-day mid-autumn festival holiday.

Some parts of Xiamen, including both urban and rural areas, had power supplies cut off, the report added.

Xinhua news agency said it was the strongest typhoon to hit that part of the country since the founding of Communist China in 1949 and the strongest so far this year anywhere in the world.

Tens of thousands of people had already been evacuated

Duet ‘a crazy idea’ A musical reunion between Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears could be in the works after the singer said he’s up for collaborating with his ex-girlfriend.

Spears said “Justin Timberlake is very good” last month while discussing whom she would like to work with one day.

Timberlake, 35, replied he would “be open to talking about” working on a song with Spears. “It seems like a crazy idea, so I don’t know. I have a 17-monthold,” he said, laughing. “But yeah, that’s very flattering and could be something fun.” Spears, 34, and Timberlake were castmates on Disney’s early 1990s version of the Mickey Mouse Club. They dated for three years before breaking up in 2002.

A satellite image of Meranti off the coast of Taiwan and China. as the storm approached and fishing boats called back to port.

One person died and 38 were injured in Taiwan, the Central Emergency Operation Centre said, as the typhoon hit the southern part of the island.

Meranti was a Category 5

typhoon, the strongest classification awarded by Tropical Storm Risk storm tracker, before it made landfall on the mainland and has since been downgraded to Category 2.

Typhoons are common at this time of year, picking up strength as they cross the

warm waters of the Pacific and bringing fierce winds and rain when they hit land.

Meranti will continue to lose strength as it pushes inland and up towards China’s commercial capital of Shanghai, but will bring heavy rain.

The real reason chef quit

■ UNITED STATES

Clinton ‘healthy and fit’, says doctor Hillary Clinton is “healthy and fit to serve” as US president, says her doctor, as her campaign released updated medical information.

The statement said the Democratic presidential nominee “continues to improve” after a pneumonia diagnosis.

The disclosure came as her Republican rival Donald Trump released health data of his own on a medical chat

show. Clinton aides say she will return to the campaign trail today after falling ill in public at the weekend.

Both candidates, among the oldest ever to run for the White House, have been under intense pressure to share more medical information.

Health issues have dominated the race for November’s election since a dizzy spell forced Mrs Clinton, 68, to

leave a 9/11 ceremony in New York on Sunday.

Her campaign said yesterday that her physician found her complete physical examination was “normal” and she is in “excellent mental condition”.

Dr Lisa Bardack said Mrs Clinton was “recovering well with antibiotics and rest”.

The campaign said she had a chest scan on Friday that

showed a “mild, non-contagious bacterial pneumonia”.

Mrs Clinton – who has been recuperating at her suburban New York home – was treated with an antibiotic called Levaquin, which she was prescribed for 10 days.

“She continues to remain healthy and fit to serve as President of the United States,” concluded Dr Bardack in the letter.

- BBC

Isaac Hayes’ son has revealed the real reason his dad quit South Park. The legendary singer, who died in 2008, voiced the Chef character in 136 episodes between 1997 to 2006. But he quit the show in 2006 not long after an episode called Trapped in the Closet aired that poked fun at his religion, Scientology.

At first Hayes didn’t seem that bothered by the episode. Just a few months later though, Hayes’ attitude about the episode had changed completely.

“Religious beliefs are sacred to people and at all times should be respected and honoured. As a civil-rights activist of the past 40 years, I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices.”

Australian travel agents experience Mid Canty Experience Mid Canterbury, Methven Travel and the Winter Marketing group hosted 11 Australian travel agents last weekend, wowing them with snow, a helicopter ride and jet boat thrills.

The group spend a long weekend discovering Mid Canterbury, which for most was a first-time experience.

Experience Mid Canterbury boss Bruce Moffat said the adventure-packed itinerary included a jet boat ride up the Rakaia River courtesy of Discovery Jet and a helicopter trip to view Mt Hutt skifield and the majestic Southern Alps courtesy of Garden City Helicopters. They dined at Stronechrubie and other Methven restaurants.

On the final evening the group enjoyed a wine tasting in the New Zealand Alpine and Agricultural Encounter.

“They loved the fact that people could learn so much about the district in one space.”

Moffat said the feedback from the group was outstanding and they commented on the fabulous food, Methven’s unique atmosphere, family-friendly facilities and space.

He said the trade group was generously hosted by Methven tourism operators.

ON THE MARKETS

for the year, and for solid quarterly gains. The quarterly gain was 0.9 per cent for the June quarter, slightly below expectations, but in line with the previous two quarters.

Growth was driven by strong domestic and export demand according to statistics New Zealand.

The construction sector grew by 5 per cent driven by the current housing market. This had a trickle down affect and boosted activity in other areas including manufacturing and services.

International demand for our exports grew by 7.6 per cent, its fastest pace of growth in 18 years.

This was driven by meat, fruit and the dairy sector. Household spending was also strong, rising 1.9 per cent, its fastest pace of growth in seven years. This has been driven by record levels of migration and tourism.

On an annualised basis, average growth grew to 2.8 per cent, but when comparing activity in the June quarter with the same period a year earlier, growth jumped 3.6 per cent. This headline figure of 3.6 per cent was in line with expectations and puts New Zealand at the forefront of developed world growth rates.

Our nearest neighbour’s Australia, announced GDP growth of 3.3 per cent for the year just last week.

The GDP per capita growth rate was 0.5 per cent for the quarter, following a 0.3 per cent increase in the March quarter.

The New Zealand dollar stayed pretty well flat following on from the GDP announcement, however it has fallen slightly for the week against the US dollar. At the time of writing the currency was trading between 72 and 73 US cents.

Against the Australian, the NZ dollar was slightly higher for the week trading about 97 cents.

Next week the markets will be watching the central banks closely.

As mentioned above the US Federal Reserve will meet and are expected to hold rates steady.

Commentary is likely to highlight the current risks that the Fed see to growth in the US. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is due to meet next week also, and like the Fed will likely keep to the status quo. The market is currently pricing in an 18.7 per cent chance of a rate cut, so it is unlikely we will see one, especially when looking at the GDP data released today.

The exciting central bank meeting will be Japan’s. Rumours have started to circulate already that they may stem the buying of longer dated bonds in an effort to steepen the yield curve.

There is also discussion that they may take interest rates further into negative territory.

A mixed week for markets t seems that volatility is again going to dominate market commentary after a mixed week for markets following on from revelations last week that the US Federal Reserve could raise rates as early as September.

Commentary from Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren last Friday in the US sent markets into a spin. While the Asian region was closed when the comments were made, they certainly caught up on Monday. Developed world markets had their worst day since the Brexit vote in June, with more than 2 per cent declines across the board.

Wild swings in the other direction came in the US on Monday evening as a different Fed member spoke with a completely contradictory view. Governor Lael Brainard, sticking to her dovish tendencies, implored the Fed to be cautious when considering rate hikes, reminding them of the risks from China and other emerging nations.

Chances of a rate hike dropped back again and with the Fed set to meet next week, the market is currently pricing in around a 20 per cent chance that they will raise rates. This moves to above 50 per cent for the December meeting.

The New Zealand market appears to be one of the worst hit since the turmoil began last Friday.

At the time of writing the index was on its way to logging its sixth consecutive day of declines, and is back below 7200 for the first time since July.

The biggest event on the New Zealand calendar this week has been second quarter GDP. Expectations were for a significant rise

Todd said the store’s new focus was on clothes and shoes, though some sporting equipment would be carried.

Surplus sporting equipment including fishing gear is being offered in a clearance sale at the old store on West Street today and tomorrow.

Owner Carol Todd and staff were working with outfitters on wall and floor displays yesterday after gradually moving stock earlier in the week.

Some customers were keen to check out the new spring range even though the store was not open for business.

Slugfest at Sandown C

“We’re going to be quicker and the degradation will be higher ... that will bring in a lot more strategy,” Mostert said.

“The way (the tyres) tear up and marble across the race is pretty crazy.

“If you run off line you’re able to scoot off on marbles ... with 500 kilometres worth of marbles on the track, passing is going to be very, very hard.”

Steve Owen will partner the in-form Mostert through the Enduro Cup. The 24-year-old has five top-five finishes from his last six races but says he’s too far back to

haz Mostert will be among the many Supercars drivers doing anti-rain dances to end Melbourne’s minimonsoon in time for the Sandown

500.

The Victorian capital will host the 500km classic at the end of one of its wettest weeks of the year.

Rain and Supercars don’t mix well – as this year’s Clipsal 500 showed – meaning team owners will be hoping for fine conditions during Saturday’s qualifying sessions and Sunday’s race.

If not, Mostert said everyone could expect a wild ride.

“Hopefully it dries out by the weekend or we get some dry segments.

“If not it’s going to be a pretty hard weekend,” he said.

You’ve got to learn to drive around it.

Sandown does get pretty slippery in the wet ... there’s not much grip.”

The season-opening Clipsal 500 saw a thunderstorm on the brink of the green light, leading to calamitous scenes and a stunning race win by local Nick Percat.

Even if it doesn’t rain, new rules that dictate soft tyres must be used in dry weather will make for dramatic racing.

make an unlikely run for the championship - even as the endurance races double the amount of points on offer each weekend.

“Trying for the championship is unrealistic with six guys in front of me and 300 points or so up the road,” he said.

“When you’ve got the consistency of (Jamie) Whincup and (Shane) van Gisbergen, whose bad days might be a fifth, it’s pretty hard.

“And (Craig) Lowndesy who’s more consistent than ever and Frosty (Mark Winterbottom) who makes sure he finishes every race.”

“But we’re still chipping away. Our goal is top five.

“If we surprise ourselves by going up further it’s been a great weekend.”

Nissan to stick with Supercars

N

issan will continue to field four cars in the Supercars championship until at least the end of the 2018 season.

There had been doubt over thecar manufacturer’s future in the competition, but yesterday they confirmed their commitment to the Kelly family-owned team, ensuring four Altimas would remain in the field.

And in a further boost for the outfit, the team’s highest-ranked driver, Michael Caruso, has also re-signed for a further two years.

“Motorsport is embedded in the DNA of Nissan, both here in Australia and globally,” said Nissan Australia chief executive Richard Emery.

“The Supercars Championship is one of the most high-profile sporting events of any kind in Australia.”

The company also confirmed it would double its representation to two at next year’s Bathurst 12hour race.

“Our efforts in the Bathurst 12Hour race over the past two years have further intrinsically linked Mount Panorama and the Nissan GT-R. “They already had incredible history together but this has now gone to a new level.”

Roger Hart

■ ■ ■

ROAD TEST

■ ■

Costs: RS $39,900 (others: S $29,900, Turbo $35,500, NT $42,900 -all +ORC) Engine: 1.5 litre, four cylinder, direct injection turbo-petrol,127kW @ 5500rpm and 220Nm from 1700-5500 rpm Transmission: 7-step CVT auto, front-wheel-drive.

Quoted Overall Economy: 6L/100km.

Safety: 5-star NCAP rating expected (front, side and curtain airbags and stability control).

Turning Circle: 10.8 metres Warranty: 5-year/unlimited km.

New Civic all grown up L

aunching a new range at a race track shows the car makers confidence in their new vehicles.

Honda chose Hampton Downs, where we were able to do a decent number of circuits (slalom and braking tests included) in each of the new Civics with their sleek, edgy, fast-back styling.

There are four variants – S, Turbo, RS (as tested) and top of the line NT. While looking like hatches, they’re actually all sedans.

Some of us can remember the stir the original Honda Civic caused on its arrival.

Then it was small, now this smooth-looking quartet, which are really important models for Honda, have grown to almost Accord size.

While the entry S model inherits an enhanced 1.8-litre engine, the other three have the brand new, 1.5-litre, four cylinder, direct injection, single scroll turbo-petrol unit.

With 127kW, but more importantly a full 220Nm of pulling

power (torque) awaiting your right foot from just 1700rpm right through to 5500rpm and a very responsive, but unobtrusive 7 step CVT auto there to make best possible use of this.

It certain impressed, not only on the track, but during the subsequent and recent 600ks of day to day running and touring driven. .

It proved quick and easy to drive around town, then likewise on the open road, cruising at 2000rpm and less, while very quickly responding to a touch of the accelerator for overtaking.

And then, if you are feeling really frisky, pull the gear lever into S and make full use of the paddles!

0-100kmh then happens in 7.5seconds!

Honda says six litres per 100km can be expected.

That’s exactly what the tripcomputer said on the cars return, while the door to door figure, from home to Christchurch was an impressive 5.3L/100km.

The steering is precise and direct with 2.2 turns lock to lock

and its feel increases at speed.

Combining this with a well set up suspension, complete with multi-link rear and Agile Handling Assist system (which lives up to its name) means this Civic, while sitting nice and flat through corners does this in a very settled and predictable manner.

That’s certainly not at the expense of comfort, for even serious pot-holes are well taken care of!

There’s excellent ventilated disc brakes all round.

The RS’ styling points of difference include a black grille, rear spoiler, 17” alloys with 215/50R tyres, LED lighting and a sunroof, while inside there’s drilled alloy pedals and 10-speaker 425 watt sound system.

All four models are suitably replete with the now-expected gear (this increases as you progress up through them) including reversing cameras with guidance, climate air, cruise control, LED daytime lights, etc.

The Turbo adds fog lights, 17” alloy wheels, key-less entry,

front/rear sensors, rain sensing wipers, auto headlights, a lanewatch camera and much more.

As with the RS, the NT is leather furnished, but it also gets an additional suite of active safety technologies, including adaptive cruise control, lane departure/ forward collision warnings etc.

There’s seats for five, but four are most comfortable when appreciating the shape and support of these and the space available for heads, legs and shoulders, both front and rear.

I liked the driving position too, and the quick acting, in-seat heating.

You do sit relatively low so direct visibility to the rear of the Civic is a little limited, but this is well taken care of by the rear

view camera and sensors.

The LCD dash and controls are user-friendly, as is the 7-inch touch screen after a little practice.

And while Apple CarPlay/ Android Auto are present, a smart-phone is needed to access sat-nav (the NT only has dedicated sat-nav).

The rear seats split/fold.

Golfers should note that if they have more than one friend the seats drop with the touch of the boot-mounted levers to increase the capacity of the deep and wide 517-litre, easily loaded boot.

What else?

During my time with the Civic its looks and colour drew lots of favourable comment.

FINALE This 1.5 turbo-petrol Civic is an impressive sedan.

It’s spacious, drives very nicely, has lots of technology and performs very well, while consuming minimal amounts of 91 octane.

A hatch and hot Type R arrive during the first half of 2017.

■ LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO LP670-4 SV

Fastest, most powerful Lambo could be yours

S

uper Veloce Racing (SVR) is now accepting applications for one of the rarest Lamborghinis in existence from its Buckinghamshire showroom.

One of only 28 in right-hand drive and 186 built worldwide, the Murcielago LP670-4 SV is offered by SVR, established and operated by ex-Lamborghini Aftersales Manager Alan Robb and ex-Lamborghini Works Driver Lee Cunningham, alongside business partner, Ben Adnett.

Just the third Lamborghini to adorn the famous Super Veloce moniker after the Miura SV and Diablo SV, this trackorientated version of the Murcielago utilises Lamborghini’s iconic first-generation 6.5-litre V12 powerplant – the last Lamborghini model to do so – to produce 661bhp with a six-speed semi-automatic, E-gear transmission, making the SuperVeloce variant of the Murcielago the fastest, lightest and most powerful road-legal Lamborghini produced to that point.

One of the first models in SV specification to leave the factory, this striking all-wheeldrive 2009 Murciela-

go SV features the aggressive aerodynamic package that has become synonymous with Lamborghini’s recent models.

This is most prominent at the front of the Murcielago SV with the angular front nose and enlarged air intakes.

Options specified on the Murcielago SV include enlarged air vents in front of the rear wheels and additional air intakes adjacent to the engine cover, which automatically engage when the ambient temperature reaches 37.7° Celsius, feeding additional air into its V12 engine.

Chassis 022 features the full factoryorder carbon-fibre package, including carbon brakes with additional bodywork cooling exiting in front of the mirrors, a

carbon fibre Aeropack Wing and doubledeckdiffuser that creates an area of low pressure below the car, helping to maximise aerodynamic efficiency.

Even more eye-catching is the fluorescent Giallo-yellow paintwork and enlarged black SV graphics behind both doors.

The Murcielago SV also features lightweight gloss black alloy wheels, Gialloyellow brake calipers and Lamborghini’s carbon fibre and glass engine cover.

The vivid colour scheme continues on the Murcielago SV’s interior but is slightly

more subdued, with a fully-black interior consisting of carbon fibre and alcantara seats and trim with contrasting yellow stitching, both on the seats, floor and roof.

This example of the Murcielago SV has been fully serviced throughout its tenure by official Lamborghini Service Centres, covering just 15,646 miles.

Applications are now being accepted for this extremely rare and sought-after Lamborghini Murcielago SV. Viewing is strictly by appointment.

Price on application.

■ PORSCHE PANAMERA 4 E-HYBRID

Hybrid delivers the horsepower T he Paris Motor Show later this month will see Porsche unveil the fourth model in the Panamera range: the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid with controlled all-wheel drive and an electric range of up to 50 kilometres.

The new Panamera 4 E-Hybrid generates some 340 kW (462 hp) of system power and delivers fuel consumption figures of 2.5 L/100 km in the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) for plugin hybrid models.

That corresponds to CO2 emissions of 56 g/km.

The Panamera 4 E-Hybrid is available to order now, with prices starting at $225,800.

At Porsche, the term “hybrid” is synonymous with not only sustainable mobility, but performance too – a fact proven not least by the victory of the 919 Hybrid in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2015 and 2016.

This philosophy is now also defining the Panamera 4 EHybrid.

The new Porsche plug-in hybrid always starts in purely electric mode and continues as a zero-emission vehicle up to a range of 50 kilometres and a maximum speed of 140 km/h.

And yet this Panamera too is a sports car among the luxury

saloons.

The all-wheel Porsche achieves a top speed of 278 km/h and delivers a system torque of 700 Nm from stationary without hesitation.

The four-door hybrid sports car breaks the 100 km/h barrier in just 4.6 seconds.

The torque is transferred to

all four wheels and the standard three-chamber air suspension ensures an optimum balance between comfort and dynamism at all times.

The superlative performance is no fluke.

The new Panamera 4 E-Hybrid features a hybrid strategy never before seen in this motor-

ing segment – a strategy based on the 918 Spyder.

The 652 kW (887 hp) 918 Spyder is the fastest series-produced vehicle ever to lap the Nürburgring Nordschleife.

Its record time of six minutes 57 seconds can in part be attributed to the additional power provided by two electric motors.

As with the 918 Spyder, the power of the Panamera electric motor – 100 kW (136 hp) and 400 Nm torque – is made available as soon as the driver touches the accelerator pedal.

On the predecessor model, the pedal needed to be pressed at least 80 per cent of the way down to unleash the additional power of the electric drive.

Now, the electric motor and petrol engine interact in perfect harmony from the very outset.

Like with the 918 Spyder, the electric motor is available to deliver additional power at all times.

This, together with the performance characteristics of the new 2.9-litre V6 biturbo engine (243 kW and 450 Nm), generates an impressive boost scenario based on electric motor and turbochargers.

As on the other second-generation Panamera models, a new, extremely fast and efficientshifting Porsche eight-speed Doppelkupplung (PDK) transmission is used to transmit the power to the all-wheel drive.

This transmission replaces the eight-speed automatic torque converter transmission on the predecessor model.

The high-voltage battery takes just 5.8 hours to fully charge.

In brief Monaco stun Spurs First-half goals by Bernardo Silva and Thomas Lemar earned Monaco a surprise 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in their Champions League opener at Wembley to silence the London club’s record ‘home’ attendance.

seized on a misplaced header from a long throw to score in the fifth minute.

The goal secured his position in the club’s history as their firstever scorer in the competition,

Savea gets his chance

BY PATRICK MCKENDRY All Blacks flanker Ardie Savea, a whirlwind of activity as a substitute in his previous five tests, will be given the opportunity to make his mark from the first whistle against the Springboks on Saturday.

Given Sam Cane’s torn hamstring suffered against the Pumas in Hamilton last weekend, Savea’s selection is not surprising.

And, as Cane, the All Blacks’ regular No7, is probably out for the rest of the Rugby Championship - away matches against Argentina and South Africa – Savea is set for an extended run should he remain injury-free.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has shown a willingness to go with continuity for his recent selections – there are no other changes to the starting XV. With Crusaders flanker Matt Todd picked as Savea’s back-up on the reserves bench for the test at AMI Stadium, the only other change to the match-day squad is due to an injury to Aaron Cruden.

A groin injury suffered in training has ruled him out.

Lima Sopoaga is Cruden’s replacement on the bench.

Hansen’s consistent selection policy suggests Savea will also start in the No7 jersey against Argentina in Buenos Aires on October 2, and against South Africa in Durban a week later.

It is likely to be a sort of insurance policy for the 22-year-old, who will be told to play his natural game and not try to do too much too early against the big Springboks pack.

Working in tandem with skipper Kieran Read, playing his 91st test, and the in-form Jerome Kaino, Savea will look to quickly settle into his defensive and linking roles.

His explosive ball-carrying – so eye-catching for the Hurricanes as they swept to their maiden Super Rugby championship – will

Ardie Savea finally gets a start in the All Blacks No. 7 jersey against the Springboks in Christchurch tomorrow. be considered a bonus, at least initially.

There was a suggestion that Blues midfielder George Moala had recovered from his knee injury, but Hansen has resisted the temptation to change the Ryan Crotty/Malakai Fekitoa combination which performed well at Waikato Stadium last weekend.

Similarly, lock Luke Romano retains his position on the reserves bench after a busy night as a replacement against the Pumas.

Rather than carry two loose forwards on his bench as he did in the two tests against the Wal-

labies, Hansen went for a specialist lock reserve against the more physical Pumas, and has done the same for the Boks, who will present a similar challenge.

“We’re really looking forward to Saturday’s encounter, as South Africa is one of our traditional foes,” Hansen said.

“We have built up a great relationship over the past few years and respect the South Africans immensely.

“We know they’ll be hurting and desperate to get a result after their loss [against Australia] on the weekend.

“Therefore, our personal prep-

aration this week will have to be at the highest level – bone deep with real clarity,” he added.

“We’ve worked hard this week on improving in the areas we felt weren’t good enough last weekend.

“We’re confident that those areas have been addressed and our performance will be improved.

“We are always striving for improvement and with South Africa having their backs to the wall, we know nothing but our best will be good enough.

“Accuracy with intensity will be paramount.”

- NZME

Two changes to Springbok starting line-up South Africa have freshened up their engine room, making two changes to the tight five to face the All Blacks in the Rugby Championship Test in Christchurch.

Stormers pair Pieter-Steph du Toit and Vincent Koch will start Saturday’s test while uncapped Lions hooker Malcolm Marx comes onto an overhauled bench.

Eighteen-test lock Du Toit replaces Lood de Jager, who suffered a bruised knee in last week’s 23-17 loss to Australia.

Koch, who has joined English champion club Saracens, will play his fifth test in place of prop Lourens Adriaanse, who drops to the bench and pushes out Trevor Nyakane.

A Springboks side seeking to avoid a third-straight loss on the road will once again feature six forwards on the reserves bench.

The recalled Willem Alberts fills the void left by du Toit while Damian de Allende usurps Lionel Mapoe as outside back cover and Marx’s promotion comes at the expense of Bongi Mbonambi.

Flanker Francois Louw will play his 50th test, while it is the 120th cap for Bryan Habana. The most capped winger in history will move to eighth on the list of all test players.

It is otherwise an experienced Springboks starting side, boasting 488 combined caps compared to New Zealand’s 726.

Coach Allister Coetzee says

Bryan Habana the fact many of his 23 players haven’t faced the All Blacks is a cause for excitement this week.

However, he says they must blend that with composure.

“We know that our discipline was not on par against the Wal-

labies in Brisbane, and we have to show a big improvement on several fronts,” he said.

“Our defence will have to be solid for the full duration of the match, because the All Blacks have the game breakers that will punish you for any defensive lapse.”

Springboks: Johan Goosen, Bryan Habana, Jesse Kriel, Juan de Jongh, Francois Hougaard, Elton Jantjies, Faf de Klerk, Warren Whiteley, Oupa Mohoje, Francois Louw, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Eben Etzebeth, Vincent Koch, Adriaan Strauss (capt), Tendai Mtawarira. Reserves: Malcolm Marx, Steven Kitshoff, Lourens Adriaanse, Franco Mostert, Willem Alberts, Jaco Kriel, Morne Steyn, Damian de Allende.

Jones finds an unlikely ally in Hansen England coach Eddie Jones’ jibe that the All Blacks are beatable has found an unlikely backer in coach Steve Hansen.

Jones, who has been brought north to topple the All Blacks as the world’s best test side, told UK media the Kiwis had significant weaknesses to exploit.

However the Australian wouldn’t reveal those weaknesses until 2018, closer to the next World Cup in Japan.

The world champions have played near-perfect rugby in 2016, thrice outclassing Wales in June before blowing away Australia in the Bledisloe Cup. They experienced a small scare in the first half of Saturday’s match against Argentina but eventually cruised away to a 5722 win.

“New Zealand are head of the pack but they have flaws in their game,” Jones said.

“They’re a bloody good side but they’re beatable.”

Hansen told reporters yesterday that Jones wasn’t completely wrong.

All sides had strong and weak points to their game, including England.

“He’s not being a rocket scientist saying that,” Hansen said.

“The key is recognising that you have them and making sure you work away quietly in fixing them.”

Jones later had a crack at New Zealand for controlling world rugby through the large number of Kiwis in international coaching roles.

Warren Gatland coaches Wales and the Lions, Joe Schmidt coaches Ireland, Vern Cotter is in charge of Scotland and Jamie Joseph is at the helm of Japan.

“They control every bit of rugby,” Jones said.

“Every law that’s changed, New Zealand drive it.”

Again, he found a surprisingly sympathetic ear in Hansen.

But allegations of controlling world rugby might be pushing the envelope, according to the All Blacks coach.

“If you look at what he’s really saying, he’s right there too with regards to the coaching,” Hansen said.

“Our coaches are all around the world.”

Time to stand up

By James Ford

Heartland Championship week four: Horowhenua-Kapiti v Mid Canterbury, 2pm, Levin.

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

Mid Canterbury will be gunning for a return to winning form against Horowhenua-Kapiti tomorrow after falling to back-toback Heartland defeats in their last two outings.

The Hammers were beaten by Buller 34-32 in Westport a fortnight ago before losing out to Wairarapa Bush 26-16 in Ashburton last week, they now sit in eighth place on the Heartland Championship ladder.

There will be two changes to Mid Canterbury’s starting XV in Levin.

Captain Jon Dampney will take a place on the bench with Phil Watson moving in at no.8.

Co-coach Craig Dunlea believes the break from the starting lineup will give his skipper, who has made 118 appearances for Mid Canterbury, a chance to asses and improve certain aspects of his game.

“He’s just got some things he wants to work on and this will give him the opportunity to work on those and come off the bench without the added pressure of captaincy,” said Dunlea.

Meanwhile Methven’s Richard Catherwood will don the number 13 jersey in place of centre Koli Tamanitoakula, who has been stood down for the mandatory three week spell after suffering a concussion against Bush last Saturday.

Dunlea is confident that Catherwood’s experience will give the Hammers a boost in midfield against an imposing Horowhenua-Kapiti side that sit one place above Mid Canterbury on the points table.

“Richard Catherwood’s traditionally a second five, centre and he’ll also give us plenty of leadership in there,” he said.

“He’s got a great head on him and I think he’s coming up to 50 games – so plenty of experience, too.”

In brief Mathewson a Cantab Western Force halfback and former All Black Alby Mathewson has signed as injury cover for provincial side Canterbury. Mathewson, 30, will replace incumbent Canterbury halfback Mitchell Drummond, who broke his leg in training last week. He played four tests for the All Blacks in 2010 and has previously played for the Hurricanes and Blues. “We know that he will have a really positive contribution to make with his immense experience as a player,” coach Scott Robertson said.

Argentina up for upset Argentina insist revenge won’t be at the forefront of their thinking when they take on the Wallabies in Saturday night’s Rugby Championship clash in Perth. The Pumas have lost 11 of their past 12 encounters against Australia. But the one that hurts the most was last year’s semi-final showdown at the World Cup, which the Wallabies won 29-15. Australia will start as warm favourites in Saturday’s re-match, but the Pumas are quietly confident of causing an upset following a series of strong displays.

bench in place of Southern’s Ollie Sapsford after making some fine performances at development level.

“It’s just a bit of rotation.

“Christian played very well for the D-squad last week and has the added abilty of playing centre as well,” said Dunlea.

Dunlea is expecting a physical encounter against Horowhenua, despite tomorrow’s opponents recording a mixed set of results so far this term.

After seeing off Thames Valley 34-30 in Paeroa, Horowhenua were beaten 32-22 by Wairarapa Bush before drawing with North Otago 36-36 at Forsyth Barr a week ago.

“It’s going to be very tough up there, they just bring massive

physicality,” he said.

“They have a big pack and big ball runners but we just need to make sure that we get in their faces and make our tackles.”

Dunlea said basic errors must be eradicated, but has confidence his players can turn the corner and return to winning ways.

“The hardest thing is that we’re so close,” he said.

“I think there’s just some things that guys could get away with in club footy but you can’t at this level.

“If you don’t keep the ball and build phases, it’s not going to end well.”

World club cup?

The idea of a new world club championship inched closer to becoming a reality as part of a new rugby union calendar, according to reports in the British media. The Premiership, Pro 12, and the French Top 14 leagues are likely to finish in June, aligning with the Super Rugby season, enabling the best European clubs and their southern hemisphere counterparts to face off once every four years. The Six Nations will not be moved from its February to March slot. - Reuters

■ RUGBY LEAGUE

In brief

Predictability two-way street Close Queensland NRL derbies appear to be an addition to life’s few certainties before tonight’s NRL sudden death semi-final in Townsville.

But Brisbane master coach Wayne Bennett suggested another yesterday – defending champion North Queensland’s game plan.

Coach Paul Green reckoned it was a compliment that Bennett believed the Cowboys were predictable ahead of their grand final re-match.

The past three derbies have been decided by one point including North Queensland’s thrilling 17-16 golden-point 2015 premiership triumph.

Many have predicted another thriller but Bennett revealed he knew exactly what awaited them before an expected sold-out 1300SMILES Stadium.

“They’ve got to that stage where they’re predictable – and good teams are predictable,” Bennett said.

“You don’t have to watch the game to know how Melbourne Storm’s going to play.

“The Cowboys are in the same category.

“That’s the key to successful teams, to do that thing over and over again.

“Everybody knows what they’re doing but they can’t stop it.

“It’s the challenge.”

Green – a former Broncos player under Bennett – seemed chuffed by his former coach’s comparison.

“Routine is very good – everyone knows what their role is,” he said.

“It has worked for us in the past.

“There is no point re-inventing the wheel.

“It is not about big plays – it is about big efforts.”

Ethan Lowe will be a major loss for the Cowboys as they face the Broncos in a sudden-death semi.

Green also felt he knew from personal experience what seventime premiership winner Bennett would be up to this week.

“Knowing Wayne, he will lift the intensity a little bit, expect a bit more from players around the place.

“One of his strengths is his ability to keep things simple for his players.

“I am sure that will be his message.”

So is Bennett predictable too?

“They weren’t my words,” Green smiled.

“I just said that was one of Wayne’s strengths – he just demands a bit more intensity ahead of these big games.”

Brisbane have lost strike centre James Roberts to suspension.

North Queensland are reeling from the loss of back-rower Ethan Lowe (spine) and centre Kane Linnett (hamstring) while sweating on winger Antonio Winterstein (ribs).

It has emerged that Lowe had been nursing a neck complaint from last week’s loss to Melbourne.

But Green still surprised a big media contingent in Townsville yesterday when he revealed the full extent of Lowe’s injury.

“Ethan Lowe’s season is finished.

“Unfortunately he has injured his spinal cord,” Green said.

“As you can imagine it is pretty serious and pretty sensitive.

“Outside of that I can’t comment too much.

“It’s really devastating. He has been one of our most consistent players so far this year.”

Green was tight-lipped when pressed further on Lowe’s injury or even how it had occurred during the finals loss to the Storm.

But Green believed tapping into the spirit that brought them their maiden title last year might yet give the Cowboys the edge.

“What we went through last

year gave them a taste and I can sense that they want more,” he said. “I can sense motivation there but we won’t truly know until Friday night.

“We’ve got that experience to draw on.

“Hopefully, it will benefit us as far as we go in the competition.”

- AAP

KEY STATS * One point has decided the past three Queensland derbies; the only other time was in 1927-28 between Glebe and North Sydney * The Cowboys have won four of five finals against the Broncos * The Cowboys have never lost in six finals in Townsville, and have won 11 of 12 home games this year * Retiring Brisbane captain Corey Parker will play his 347th game, making him the fourth most-capped NRL player

between the Cowboys and the Broncos have been decided by golden point – including last year’s thrilling grand final.

But the Australian Rugby League Commission moved earlier this year to introduce two five-minute periods of extra time to be played in finals if scores are level at full-time.

One of the leading agitators against the golden point rule, Bennett said he was “really pleased” about the change.

“I reminded the players of that this week.

“It’s much fairer, I’m more happy with that,” he said.

“It gives everyone an opportunity to continue to play football for 10 minutes.

“After that I accept the fact, golden point – there’s got to be a result and that’s a fair way to do it.”

Bennett is braced for another close contest against the Cowboys, and believes there are a

perfect storm of reasons why the two teams can’t help but fight out close ones these days.

“The rivalry between the two clubs, two Queensland-based teams ... there’s a great mixture of everything there and it does bring the best out of everybody,” he said. “They’ve been wonderful games, last season and this season.

“Not one of them has disappointed anybody. I’m confident that’ll happen again.”

No bad blood, despite a broken jaw Gold Coast forward Ryan James broke James Tedesco’s jaw to end his NRL season but the fullback insists there’s no hard feelings as they look to push their claims for a Four Nations tour.

Bulldogs forward Greg Eastwood has been added to the Kiwis’ Four Nations train-on squad after his side was eliminated from NRL finals contention. Eastwood, 29, has played 24 Tests for New Zealand after making his debut in 2007. His Bulldogs side were knocked out of the finals after losing 28-12 to the Panthers on Sunday. An additional 12 players will be named for the train-on squad after their sides are eliminated from the premiership hunt, with a final squad of 24 to be announced on October 10. - NZME

Priest out for season

Extra time the way to go for NRL finals Extra time will guarantee a “fairer” outcome in tonight’s NRL semi-final than the golden point rule alone ever could, according to Brisbane coach Wayne Bennett.

North Queensland face the Broncos in Townsville for the right to take on Cronulla in next weekend’s preliminary final.

If history is any guide, it will be an early test of the NRL’s new rules around drawn finals.

Two of the last three matches

Call-up for Eastwood

The duo will line up for the Australian Prime Minister’s XIII in Papua New Guinea on September 24, four weeks after Tedesco was injured by James’ swinging arm.

With the the 23-year-old’s campaign finished, the Tigers’ finals quest also fell flat in a thrashing at the hands of Canberra.

“He gave me a handshake and asked how it was straight away,

so there’s no bitterness there,” Tedesco said. “He’s a good bloke.”

Tedesco had four plates inserted in his jaw but was cleared by specialists to make his Australian debut.

- AAP

Canberra have been dealt a blow in the lead up to tomorrow night’s semi-final against Penrith, with bench prop Clay Priest ruled out for the season with a broken ankle.

A Penrith junior, Priest injured his ankle at training on Wednesday night, and the club has already confirmed his season is over. The 27-year-old has played 14 matches in a breakout year for the club this season, averaging 10 metres per run off the bench.

- AAP

Judiciary got it wrong He’s ready to move on but Wayne Bennett still reckons Brisbane centre James Roberts should be playing in tonight’s NRL semi-final.

Roberts was suspended by the judiciary after kicking out at Gold Coast’s Ryan Simpkins last week.

The 23-year-old was found guilty of a contrary conduct charge – not a kicking charge. Bennett believes it sets an unfairly low threshold for what can be considered contrary to the spirit of the game.

- AAP

Fixing claims denied Controversial gambling figure Eddie Hayson has denied any involvement in NRL match fixing at an extraordinary hour-long press conference in Sydney. Hayson claimed allegations which centre around three Manly matches from 2015 and 2016 were created by rival figures and told to NSW Police.

“I have never fixed a match in my life, never. I have never bribed a player or even attempted to interfere with the result of an NRL match or any other sport,” he said. - AAP

Kidwell ‘best for role’ David Kidwell is likely to be confirmed as Kiwis head coach in the next 24 hours. The Herald understands that the New Zealand Rugby League has decided that Kidwell, who has served as assistant coach to Stephen Kearney since the 2014 Four Nations, is the best fit for the role. In the wake of Kearney’s departure to the Warriors on Tuesday, Kidwell was immediately seen as the logical choice and has been endorsed by both Kearney and Simon Mannering this week. - NZME

Bulldogs chasing Foran The Warriors could be beaten in their bid to sign Kieran Foran with Canterbury reportedly set to make the Kiwis international an offer overnight. Reports have the Bulldogs preparing to table a contract for Foran after club officials met with the troubled playmaker in the past 48 hours. The Warriors have been favourites to sign Foran on a one-year deal but these developments could see the 26-year-old remain in Sydney.

■ HAVE A GO DAY

Year 2s demonstrate their sporting skills

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

More than 250 of the district’s Year 2 students were put through their paces during yesterday’s Have A Go Day at the Ashburton Domain.

Pupils from Hampstead, Rakaia, St Joseph’s, Wakanui, Netherby, Mayfield and Ashburton Borough schools honed their skills at 10 different sports stations.

Cricket, rugby, hockey, basket-

ball, football, netball, tennis, teeball, golf and athletics were on offer to the budding sports stars.

Primary schools sports co-ordinator Mark Reid said the day proved a resounding success, with the youngsters enjoying the

wide variety of sports with the help of Sport Canterbury.

“The whole idea is for kids to have a go and try things out,” he said.

“It’s gone really well, the kids loved it.”

■ PARALYMPICS

‘I’d trade it all for mum’ New Zealand’s very own blade runner Liam Malone would sacrifice his Rio Paralympics medals in a heartbeat if it meant having his mother back.

The Wellington-based athlete has been taken into the hearts of Kiwis after his brilliant gold medal victory in the T44 200 metres sprint final which fell on the day of his late mother’s birthday.

“I’d definitely sacrifice a gold and silver to have her back,” Malone said of his mother Trudi Scott who died of cancer in 2012.

Malone, who collected silver in the 100m sprint final, races for his second gold medal today in his specialist event, the 400 metres.

But the 22-year-old, who only took up Paralympics competition two years ago, said the tragedy had also strengthened him “On the other side of the coin, I learnt a lot from her passing away.

“I had to learn to stand on my own two feet, as much as a man missing two feet can,” said Malone who had both his feet amputated when he was 18 months old after being born with the same congenital disease as infamous South African Paralympian Oscar Pistorious.

“Obviously I got the (100m silver) medal on my mum’s birthday which is a very special occasion for both myself, my father and my friends and my family who have been through the process of grieving her loss.

“That moment will stick with me forever.

“I was in such a dark place and I just needed an overriding goal to get me out of it and to teach myself that hard work is the most important thing to get anything in life – and I’ve certainly learned that.”

Malone, who broke Pistorious’s world record in winning the 200m final, admits Rio and his increased public profile has been a surreal experience.

“First two years I really battled and battled and battled and wasn’t seeing much progress.

“It’s really just been in the past six months that I have got everything done and gone to the top.

I feel like if you want to achieve something then you have to dedicate yourself to it and it really just comes down to mindset.

“My top speed is good and I spent two years building the tank and the last eight months we’ve been putting in the accelerator. So I put down the gas and went for it and it was great.

“When you’re out there you don’t really think too much. You’re just in the moment ... win or lose, I’m just stoked to be here.”

- NZME

The International Tennis Federation has issued Uzbekistan officials Sherzod Hasanov and Arkhip Molotyagin with life bans for betting-related offences. Following investigations by the Tennis Integrity Unit (TIU), the pair were found guilty of using a mobile phone to communicate scores of matches at which they were officiating “to a third party” at an ITF Futures event in Israel last September.

Cowboys tops again The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable NFL team for a 10th consecutive year, nearly double the league average, according to an annual survey by business magazine Forbes yesterday. The Cowboys, who last year unseated Spanish soccer giants Real Madrid for top spot on Forbes’ list of the world’s most valuable sports teams, are worth $US4.2 billion ($NZ5.6bn), a 5 per cent rise over last year, Forbes said.

Big Bash copycats A new city-based Twenty20 tournament appears set to be introduced to the English domestic calendar as soon as 2018 after counties reached agreement in a meeting at Lord’s. The lure of a tournament in the style of Australia’s Big Bash – involving just eight teams and to run outside the established Twenty competition for all 18 counties – appears to have cleared its most significant hurdle after it was backed by a majority of county representatives.

Century all in vain

Liam Malone

A magnificent century by young Australian batsman Jake Lehmann couldn’t save Yorkshire from a 10-wicket loss to Somerset as the English County season heads for a thrilling finish. Jason Gillespie’s reigning champions now need Lancashire to deny leaders Middlesex victory ahead of the two sides’ crunch season finale next week at Lord’s to have any genuine hope of a third successive title.

Lehmann is the son of Australia coach Darren Lehmann.

Puzzles

Puzzles and horoscopes www.guardianonline.co.nz Cryptic crossword

Friday, September 16, 2016

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Even though a current interest lights up many parts of your brain and life at once, you are careful not to get so wrapped up with pursuing an important goal that you lose sight of your dearest relationships.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): As for that person who has disappointed you numerous times, you’re now getting resentful. Call this person out or get your needs met elsewhere.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You sense that a relationship is changing. There’s nothing to fear here and plenty to embrace. All will develop in a wonderful direction for those who stay positive.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): If you have to explain a joke, it’s not a joke. The same goes for magic tricks, athletic feats and acts of love. If you didn’t experience it as a loving act, how could it be that? Reception will be key today.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): A relationship needs a better pattern – a rhythm that will serve both of you well. The right actions, spaced well and repeated effectively, will make for a beautiful and seemingly effortless connection.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): You notice a lot. If you were to bring attention to every little thing that displeases you, you’d be a most unpleasant person to be around. Pick your battles and keep relationships harmoniously improving.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): All this trying to get the timing right, say the perfect thing, act smart – it’s too much pressure! Still, it’s too soon to give in. Press pause. Breathe, relax and think about something else for a while.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Revolutionary change, by definition, happens by force. The revolt is key. You want results, but do you really need them immediately? Might a gradual, gentle change serve just as well?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): When one option doesn’t work, you don’t feel personally rejected. You’ve a sense that what’s meant to be will be. This is peace.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Right now it would be pointless to negotiate with the established order. There is a worn path that none involved have reason to stray from. The balance of power will soon be upset and you’ll have your opportunity.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): You’re doing so well that you may have worries about managing success. Are you peaking too early? When should you push yourself harder? When should you back off? All quality problems.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): There’s more than one way to get unstuck. Don’t bang up against the obstacle. You won’t nudge it free with direct force. You need a lever. Step back and look again for new perspective and answers.

Webb chasing history Australian legend Karrie Webb is on the cusp of a rare place in golf history at this week’s Evian Championship in France. Victory in the year’s fifth and final major championship would give her a career set of six different major titles – the five existing ones plus the defunct Du Maurier Classic. The 41-year-old Queenslander won the Evian Masters in 2006 – well before it became a major in 2013 – and has several other good finishes to her credit including a second place in 2014.

World No.1 Lydia Ko is the defending champion for the first time in a major championship, having won by six shots over Lexi Thompson last year.

NZ medal tally up to 17 New Zealand’s Jessica Hamill has claimed bronze in the Shot Put F34 at the Rio Paralympics.

Hamill had a best attempt of 7.54m.

China’s Lijuan Zou claimed gold with a world record attempt of 8.75m.

Poland’s Lucyna Kornobys took silver with a best attempt of 8m.

Hamill’s bronze is New Zealand’s 17th medal of the Games.

Fellow para-athlete Liam Malone, who has already won a gold and silver at the Games, eased into the final of the 400m T44 with the second best time.

Earlier yesterday Paralympic debutant Scott Martlew made history as he competed in a Para-Canoe, a sport that has also made a Paralympic debut in Rio. Martlew advanced to the final of the Men’s KL3, after being called up to the New Zealand

Paralympic team only two weeks ago.

A strong head wind did not seem to faze Martlew as he crossed the finish line in fourth place in his semifnal.

His time of 44:28.4 was only 1.4 seconds behind the winner Oliver (GBR).

Yesterday the focus of ParaCycling moved to the road with Kate Horan first up in the Time Trial C4 (road cycling).

Horan finished eighth in a time of 33:32.37.

Fraser Sharp followed up with an eighth in the Men’s Time Trial C3 while Emma Foy just missed out on the medals following a fourth in the Women’s Time Trial BVI. Amanda Cameron came ninth in the same event.

Golden girl Nikita Howarth was in action in the pool finishing seventh in the Women’s 100m Breaststroke SB9. - NZME

Another Barrett in the Hurricanes line-up?

Could Super Rugby champions the Hurricanes be about to add a second dazzling player with the surname Barrett to their already red-hot backline?

While Christchurch-based Jordie Barrett has an offer on the table from the Crusaders for next season, the rugby grapevine is buzzing with rumours that the Hurricanes are close to stealing the signature

of Beauden’s younger brother from their southern rivals.

And the Canes appear to be using their All Blacks star to win the battle.

“I’m twisting his arm very tightly,” Beauden said in Christchurch this week while in camp with the All Blacks.

The younger Barrett has been studying at Lincoln University this year while also making a

Leicester makes brilliant start P23

huge splash for Canterbury in the NPC. Jordie, a stylish backline utility player in the vein of his older brother, has scored 44 points for the red and blacks already this season.

He has played several positions in the backline and will line up at fullback against Manawatu tomorrow.

The presence of his older

brother Scott, a lock, within the Crusaders is a motivation to remain in the South Island but the prospect of linking up with Beauden and also being closer to family in Taranaki will ensure it is a difficult decision for goalkicking Jordie, also a star for the New Zealand Under 20s.

“It’s tough,” said Jordie.

“There’s options there and I’m not sure what to do yet.”- NZME

Celtic skipper furious Celtic skipper Scott Brown has described the second half of the Bhoys’ 7-0 thrashing by Barcelona at the Nou Camp as unacceptable. The Hoops were losing 2-0 at the interval through a Lionel Messi double, but Moussa Dembele had a penalty saved

by Marc-Andre ter Stegen when it was 1-0 for the home side. However, the Scottish champions capitulated after the break and Messi added a third for his hat-trick, Luis Suarez a double with further goals from Neymar and Andres Iniesta.

Support for Kearney Wayne Bennett believes Stephen Kearney can be the circuitbreaking coach the Warriors need to finally unlock the NRL club’s potential.

Kearney was announced as the Warriors’ new boss this week, replacing Andrew McFadden, who was demoted to an assistant role.

Bennett believes the Warriors have made a smart choice, describing Kearney as a coach “on top of his game” who will know precisely how to sort out their issues.
