Mid Canterbury was blanketed by snow yesterday as a powerful winter storm wrought havoc across the South Island.

Many schools sent children home early as snow fell thick and fast, blanketing much of the district.

Schools in Methven, Mount Somers and Lauriston kept their doors closed today, advising parents to keep children at home.

By mid-afternoon up to 15cm of snow was believed to be on the ground in Mount Somers while heavy snow also fell in Methven, Mayfield and at Lake Coleridge.

Ashburton, Hinds and Rakaia were also hit by the wintry blast, with thick snow flurries falling for much of the afternoon.

Temperatures fell to 1°C in Ashburton yesterday afternoon and were expected to hit below freezing overnight.

The snow made travel on the

roads treacherous with one car colliding with a pole on Ashburton Staveley Road.

Both the Mid Canterbury Schools’ Music Festival and Methven Primary School production were postponed.

While the icy weather caused problems for much of the district, staff at Mt Hutt were rejoicing.

General manager of operations James Urquhart estimated 30cm of snow had fallen on the mountain by mid-afternoon yes-

terday, and by 9pm last night that had risen to 90cm.

Mr Urquhart said it was one of the biggest snowfalls he had seen in recent years, but skiers would have to wait to hit the slopes.

A decision was made last night to close the ski area today due to avalanche risks.

Five things that may interest you

The anti-Tinder A group of Aucklanders are rebelling from a hook-up oriented dating app culture and injecting some wholesomeness back into modern romance. Do Good Dating introduces potentially compatible singles before sending those interested in each other on a one-on-one date to complete volunteer work together. “It’s the anti-Tinder,” said one of its founders, website editor Alice Harbourne. Along with Live More Awesome charity co-founder Daniel Drupsteen and designer Fiona Kerr, Ms Harbourne created the concept to take what they see as the sleaze out of modern dating. “We are hoping it acts as a filter to weed out people’s motives.

It’s like an added payment: If you want to go on a date and meet someone you really like you have to go out and do something for the community.”

In the age of dating apps Tinder, Happn and Grindr – where those looking for a date, or something more casual, simply swipe through profiles of other singles – the Do Good Dating team are trying to put the heart back into the game of love.

New Zealand was once home to a bizarre, king-sized bat that walked on four limbs and hunted its prey amid the undergrowth of ancient rainforests. The scientists who discovered the new species, much larger than today’s average bat, say the mystacina miocenalis could force a rethink on what we know about bats in this part of the world. Their exciting find also shows, for the first time, that bats of the quirky mystacina species, which include our native greater and lesser short-tailed bats, have hung out in our forests for more than 16 million years.

Young Kiwi’s chance to dance A young Janet Jackson fan from Mt Wellington is one of 10 dancers from around the globe selected to tour the world with the 49-yearold pop music legend. Alex Carson, 23, grew up in Canberra listening to Janet Jackson’s music, and began dancing aged 10. She moved to New Zealand about 18 months ago to join three-time world hip-hop dance champion winners The Royal Family – a South Auckland-based crew – and she also dances with the allfemale ReQuest Dance Crew. Earlier this year Ms Carson, who works at Topshop, and other dancers based at Palace Dance Studio in Penrose, were invited to audition for Jackson’s Unbreakable tour which kicks off in Vancouver, Canada, on August 31. “I was invited to audition over in LA about two months ago, and then I went again a few weeks ago for the callback,” she said. She was successful, and said the opportunity is “a dream come true”. She now has to go back to LA before the tour.

Armytage attempted to conquer one of her biggest fears when she was smothered in thousands of cockroaches while she lay in a glass oblong crate on yesterday’s show. She squealed, screamed and squirmed for the entire 60 seconds of the stunt, in which she wore disposable white overalls, before jumping up and stepping out of the box. However, dozens of cockroaches were still clinging to the white overalls and they started scattering across the floor on the set of the Seven Network’s Martin Place studio. The Brazilian cockroaches that were used were “pretty hygienic” according to their handler.

Lessons from past falls

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

When the big snow of June 6, 2006 hit, the Ashburton District’s power supplies were crippled.

Wooden poles snapped under the weight of snow-covered power lines and across the district lines were brought down by fallen trees.

Most residents awoke to a powerless world where streets and roads were impassable.

The clean-up was long and it was hard and in some parts

of the district, families were without power for two or three weeks.

For some, snow ploughs took up to a week to arrive to clear their access to the outside world.

The lessons learned then meant that infrastructure providers such as EA Networks are well prepared whenever snow threatens, said chief executive Gordon Guthrie.

Hundreds of elderly wooden poles have been replaced over the past nine years and the

lines network is now much more robust. And while snow created problems, wind blown or snow affected trees falling across lines were now the biggest enemy of the network, he said.

Ashburton District Council contractors Fulton Hogan had 11 graders clearing main and arterial roads early yesterday afternoon and crews were anticipating a long night, manager Darcy Roberts said.

At least two crews worked through the night and depend-

It finally arrived . . .

From P1 The ski area was closed yesterday after wind gusts of 154km/h battered the mountain.

The wind was so strong that it propelled a stone straight through a double glazed window at one of the ski area’s buildings.

Ashburton District Council Civil Defence Management Officer Don Geddes advised people to drive to the conditions and avoid unnecessary travel.

Mr Geddes said people also needed to take care after the snow subsided, as roads could be covered with black ice.

He also said it was a good time for people to make sure their emergency kits were well stocked and up-to-date.

While it may have caused major disruption through much of the region,

farmers were well prepared due to early warnings.

Federated Farmers High Country chairman Tim Hutchinson said all farmers were warned in advance of the cold snap and any livestock on high country was moved to low lying areas.

Mr Hutchinson said farmers had plenty of feed reserves and would be able to cope well with the wintry conditions.

Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers chairman Willy Leferink said the snow was needed to help fill aquifers after a dry summer.

He advised dairy farmers to look after their stock and make sure they were confined and fed well.

Mr Leferink said farmers had been given plenty of warning. “It’s winter!

It’s what we expect.”

ing on snowfall at first light, numbers would be boosted, Mr Roberts said.

“The important thing is to keep the roads clear so the snow doesn’t freeze,” he said.

Fulton Hogan was well prepared could call on up to 30 machines to work on snow clearing if needed from other contractors in the area, he said.

Mid-afternoon yesterday snow was lying up to 10 centimetres deep in the Mayfield and Alford Forest areas.

Bad weather that blanketed parts of the South Island in snow yesterday is slowly creeping north, bringing with it showers and strong winds.

Yesterday in areas of Otago and Canterbury temperatures plunged to 0°C as a warm flow coming from the Tasman Sea, and a cold southern blast collided, creating showers and chilling temperatures.

Snow could still possibly fall today, however those further south were more likely to see showers and strong winds, MetService meteorologist Rebekah LaBar said.

“It’s still going to be pretty rainy and pretty showery, it’s going to be a generally improving trend, but that’s not really saying much because it is still not going to be great weather. “[We are] looking at generally showery conditions, but freezing levels will start to gradually rise so we’re not looking at as much snow, at least at low levels, for the South Island.”

Ms LaBar said the frontal system that had brought rain and snow to the South Island was moving up north, and would begin to affect places in the North Island today.

“That’s going to be affecting the North Island today into Saturday, and that’s the system that’s going to bring the rain that we have the watch out for in Wellington and Wairarapa, and Taranaki.”

Wellington and Kapiti were under a weather watch for rain until tonight, while Taranaki was under watch for the rest of today and tomorrow morning.

There was also a weather watch in place for heavy winds affecting areas such as Marlborough, Wellington and Wairarapa, Ms LaBar said.

■ ASHBURTON TRADING SOCIETY

Farmlands open to merger

By NadiNe Porter

NadiNe.P@theguardiaN.co.Nz

Farmlands would look at any opportunity to merge with Ashburton Trading Society should it arise, its chairman says.

Responding to a Guardian query as to whether Ravensdown leaving RuralCo, which it owned in partnership with ATS, suggested the time was right for a merger, Lachie Johnstone said the door was always open.

There was “nothing on the table at the moment” but Farmlands had “to be nimble and we’ve got to be innovative. The door is always open. It has to be,” he said.

Contacted soon after, ATS chairman Phil McKendry said his board was “constantly evaluating that premise of if we’re better off merging with a large entity or not”.

“Certainly we don’t have a fixed view either way but should the right conditions and the right opportunity arise we would look at it.”

Mr McKendry said it was currently an internal discussion only: “We are not talking to Farmlands about it.”

However ATS would only remain if it could deliver better value than any other alternative, he said.

“But if it (ATS co-op) can

deliver better value as an alternative or a different structure we’ll be there.”

CRT, which is now part of Farmlands, approached ATS to discuss a merger in 2007. The co-op saw “no clear benefit” at that time.

Since then, ATS’s ambitions to go nationwide have been curtailed by Ravensdown pulling its 50 per cent share of Ruralco.

ATS group had an almost 50 per cent drop in revenue from 2013 to 2014.

The group’s $5.3 million profit before tax dropped to a $261,000 loss in 2014.

Its half share in Ruralco was

$44,000 of that loss.

The average spend of members dropped from $85,000 in 2013 to $42,000 in 2014.

Meanwhile Farmlands, which operates nation-wide, made a net profit before tax of $23.4 million, from turnover of $2.5 billion. It increased its profit by half from 2013.

Mr McKendry said ATS’s 2013/14 accounts were “not normal” because of the Ruralco integration and that, post balance date, a substantial dividend was paid from Ruralco to ATS that more than offset the previous deficit.

“It put us back on line and on our normal profitability track.”

Final meeting signals end of era for chamber

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.N@theguardiaN.co.Nz

History was made yesterday but that history-making event was marked in a very quiet way.

When the Ashburton District Council’s environmental services and service delivery committees met, those two meetings signalled the final official act in the council’s level three council chamber.

Growing council staff numbers have seen office accommodation under intense pressure in recent years, with an old villa on Havelock Street pressed into use as makeshift office accommodation.

The villa is cold, old and leaky and councillors decided they’d move out of their heated chamber so it could be converted into temporary office space while decisions were made on the future of the district’s civic headquarters.

The Ashburton Trust Event Centre’s Bradford Room will become a temporary coun-

A 16-year-old boy accused of stealing a digger and embarking on an hour-long “reckless and alcohol-fuelled escapade” through the streets of Christchurch on Wednesday night claims he’d earlier bought booze unchallenged at a city liquor store.

The young man appeared in Youth Court in Christchurch yesterday facing seven charges relating to Wednesday night’s alleged joy-riding rampage.

Ashburton’s St John ambulance travelled 4014 kilometres last week attending 99 calls. Of those, 32 were urgent. Eighty were to medical incidents and 19 to accidents.

Caught in trolley Carterton firefighters cut free a 1-year-old boy who caught his leg in a supermarket trolley while on a shopping trip with his mum yesterday. Carterton Deputy Fire Chief Brian Styles said there was initial confusion with the details of the call, which was taken about 8.20am. He said firefighters arrived at the Carterton New World Supermarket to find a boy aged about 12 months, who had “pushed himself right through” a supermarket trolley his mother was pushing and had trapped his leg. A bar had to be cut through on the trolley and the youngster was freed within minutes. Despite “getting a bit of a fright” he had been uninjured during the brief ordeal.

The car stopped and the driver was assisting police with their enquiries.

Teen digger driver remanded on bail

By Kurt Bayer

Ambulance calls

Police were called to a Christchurch address at around 10.20pm, where a large digger was reportedly being driven into fences and parked cars.

The driver did not stop for police when they arrived at the scene and made for a notso-speedy getaway, Inspector Derek Erasmus said.

“The driver then drove the vehicle at low speed around a number of eastern Christchurch streets,” Mr Erasmus said.

“Shortly before midnight the vehicle was driven along

Fitzgerald Ave heading towards the city on the wrong side of the road.

“The risk to the public and police had significantly increased and a decision was made to use chemical munitions to stop the vehicle.”

Police gassed the cab of the vehicle, causing it to slow and the driver to jump from the cab.

A police officer then entered the vehicle and brought it to a stop. Officers grabbed the youngster at the scene.

The youth, who has name

suppression, has been charged with a range of offences, including unlawfully taking a motor vehicle, aggravated assault, intentional damage, reckless driving and driving with excess breath alcohol.

Judge Noel Walsh granted the youth bail with strict conditions to a Christchurch address but told him he was “in very deep water” for what he described as an alleged “reckless and alcohol-fuelled escapade which potentially put innocent people at risk”.

Robber arrested A man has been arrested and charged in relation to two aggravated robberies in Northland. The 36-year-old Kerikeri local allegedly robbed the Homestead Tavern on Tuesday last week. A week later, he then allegedly broke into a home on Three Mile Bush Road, Kamo, police said. The man will appear in the Kaikohe District Court today on a total of 16 charges, including aggravated robbery and kidnapping. He was arrested after a short vehicle pursuit on Wednesday afternoon on Shepherd Road, Kerikeri. The victims of both robberies were slowly recovering from their ordeal and receiving support, Detective Inspector Kevin Burke said. “This matter was able to be resolved quickly due to good information received from the community, who were appalled by this man’s actions. “Good urgent work by police work has prevented further harm.”

Lines charges remain static By sue newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton’s electricity consumers pay the second lowest lines charges in New Zealand and that is unlikely to change under the Electricity Authority’s proposed charging regime changes.

EA Networks chief executive Gordon Guthrie says that while the proposal could see more remote parts of New Zealand such as the West Coast and Northland face significant lines charge hikes, he believes Ashburton will remain unaffected.

The authority has put a proposal to Government that would see local investment in the national grid paid for by customers – distance would then equate to increased costs.

This has drawn sharp criticism from social agencies who say the increased costs (in some cases up to 300 per cent) would hurt people who were already struggling to make ends meet.

Ashburton power consumers have traditionally had one the lowest lines charges in New Zealand on the back of a re-

verse demand, where the biggest use is during the summer months from high irrigation demand rather than winter heating as is the case in most parts of New Zealand. The new proposal is unlikely to change that, Mr Guthrie said..

“We’re still to see the detail in the proposal but the indicative model is we should stay

pretty much the same in Ashburton.”

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment quarterly survey of domestic electricity prices, published last month shows that Ashburton consumers currently pay 7.9 cents per kilowatt in lines charges with only Cambridge, 7.8 cents, lower. Balclutha, 19.6

cents, and KeriKeri, 19.1 cents, are the highest. The national average is 11.7 cents.

The average New Zealand household consumes 22 kilowatts of power a day, 8000 per year.

Ashburton consumers pay an average retail price per kilowatt of 26.5 cents. The national average is 28.2 cents.

■ ANZCO ACCIDENT

Fundraising page set up for work accident victim

By Daisy HuDson

A fundraising page has been set up to support the family of an Ashburton man seriously injured in an accident at ANZCO. Hisham Almansi, 20, woke from an induced coma in Christchurch Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit yesterday morning following a serious accident at ANZCO’S Ashburton meat processing plant on June 3.

Mr Almansi suffered multiple broken bones and extensive injuries after he was crushed in a hydraulic door.

His father, Suliman Almansi, said his son was woken from the coma to undergo an operation on his right leg yesterday afternoon.

Mr Almansi said his son was awake and was able to talk to his family, and seemed to be in

good spirits. However Mr Almansi said he was angry after discovering a stun box operator at the factory was listening to music through his headphones as his son was crushed.

He was upset when he found out that his son’s workmate had to shout and wave to attract the attention of the man, who was allegedly also using a cellphone at the time.

Mr Almansi said his son was “very, very, very lucky to be alive”.

The family were supposed to return to their home country of Jordan next month, but he believed that was now unlikely as his son would require extensive rehabilitation.

The incident had put significant financial pressure on the family, he said.

A page on fundraising website GiveaLittle has been set up to support the family.

As of last night it had received nearly $800 of donations.

The page was set up by Ahmad Abdul, who wanted to help the family after hearing of their plight.

Donations can be made at https://givealittle.co.nz/ cause/helphisham# .

Convention centre delay could end conference A big conference planned for Christchurch will likely be canned because the city’s new convention centre won’t be open in time, the earthquake recovery minister says.

It was lauded as a “win” for the city just a few months ago but yesterday Gerry Brownlee said he was puzzled event organisers even booked the ven-

ue. Eight hundred delegates were supposed to arrive for the Asia-Oceania Conference of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, giving the quake-hit city a $2m boost.

Labour MP Ruth Dyson asked Mr Brownlee yesterday if the conference planned for November 2018 would still go ahead.

He said it was was “highly unlikely” but he wouldn’t advise organisers to reschedule.

“It’s surprising to me that they’ve actually booked it.”

Mr Brownlee told a parliamentary select committee funding of the city’s convention centre was yet to be decided.

The committee also heard

debates around the centre’s funding and ownership were likely to continue for some time. “...It’s a very large asset, a very expensive asset and I’m interested to see us get to a point where we can be confident we’re not doing the wrong thing.”

Mrs Hill is in an induced coma and has multiple fractures.

She and husband Barrie were on day four of an eight-week holiday when the accident occurred. She was airlifted from Santorini to Athens.

The couple’s sons Shane and Lance flew to Athens earlier this week to be with their mother and are expected home this weekend.

This weekend will also see a community walk/run event held to raise money to help cover some of the costs incurred by the Hill family. This is being organised by family friend Kevin Opele.

Mr Opele has also set up an account at the ANZ bank, 010834-0164407-46 where donations can be made to support the family.

Information about the event is on a Facebook community events page, Run for the Hills.

“I’m hopeful that we can raise some funds to lessen the burden financially so that it’s one less thing they don’t need to worry about during the recovery,” he said.

Sunday’s run starts at 9.30am at the Ashburton Domain hockey pavilion.

This will be a cash on the day event, $5 per person or $10 for an adult and two children.

Many local businesses have donated goods and vouchers towards the fundraising effort and these will be auctioned off next week on air by radio host Phill Hooper.

■ METHVEN NURSE PRACTITIONER

Taking the pressure off doctors

BY CAITLIN PORTER

CAITLIN.P@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

After years of arduous testing and assessments, Kathryn Hellyer is the newest nurse practitioner in the district.

Nurse practitioners are expert nurses who work within a specific area of practice, such as primary care like Mrs Hellyer, incorporating their advanced knowledge and skills.

Methven Medical Centre GP and Pegasus Health Board representative Gayle O’Duffy said the role of a nurse practitioner was a relatively new one.

Mrs Hellyer said it was created partly as a way to take pressure off GPs. To be a nurse practitioner requires the completion of a four year clinical master’s degree, which Mrs Hellyer completed while working part time, before a portfolio is assembled.

The final stage involves flying to Wellington and being assessed by a panel of experts.

Mrs Hellyer completed this portion last Friday, and undertook a four-hour assessment

Kathryn Hellyer has been endorsed by the Nursing Council to work as a nurse practitioner at the Methven Medical Centre.

PHOTO AMANDA KONYN 170615-AK-002

where she was asked a slew of questions and put through various scenarios.

“I was so nervous, this is the biggest thing. Five years of work comes down to this day.”

Not everyone gets to this stage though.

Mrs Hellyer said many people drop out of their master’s degree, as they find it too hard or too much of a commitment.

From her intake of 40 to 50 only three became nurse practitioners.

From a young age Mrs Hellyer said she knew she wanted to become a nurse, but the deci-

sion to further her career came later.

“I grew up in rural North Otago and then North Canterbury and I always wanted to be a nurse … from right when I was young I thought to myself I would love to work in rural general practices.”

She spent 12 years working in hospitals all over New Zealand and the rest of the world, but for the past 10 years has been at Methven Medical Centre.

In her role as a nurse practitioner in Methven she will be kept busy.

“In an ideal world I would look after the simple acutes and the stable chronics, but you never know what will walk through the door.”

Mrs Hellyer credits her coworkers in Methven, particularly Dr O’Duffy, who mentored her throughout her degree as well as her family for helping her get to where she is now.

Being a nurse practioner is something Mrs Hellyer said she loves, and finds much enjoyment in.

Suppliers offered chance to earn premium prices

By Fiona RotheRham

John Penno

milk, above the $5.50 per kilogram of milksolids the company has forecast as its farmgate milk price for next season.

This season’s milk price is expected to be between $4.40/kgMS and $4.60/kgMS due to continued low global dairy prices.

Synlait won’t reveal what that premium for Grass Fed will be but it’s expected to top the existing range of premium earning options it provides farmers which include A2 milk, Immuron Colostrum and its best practice dairy farming programme, Lead with Pride.

It doesn’t reveal what premiums are paid for A2 or Immuron although it does for Lead with Pride. Farmers on the internationally recognised 1SO 65 dairy farm assurance programme are split into two bands, with Gold-Plus accredited farmers receiving an extra 6c/kgMS and Gold-Elite an extra 12c.

Only one supplier has made Gold-Elite status to date. Synlait has eight certified suppliers under the programme and a further 15 due to be certified in July.

Synlait says the Grass Fed programme will pay significantly above that 12c premium “given the value of the milk for us”, a spokesman said.

Synlait also said its “doors were open” to new suppliers generally for the next season to cope with increased demand.

Synlait Milk, the Canterbury-based dairy processor, has announced a new partnership with US baby products manufacturer, Munchkin Inc, that could offer its 161 farmer suppliers a chance to earn well above the normal payout.

Munchkin, a privately-held Californian company known for designing, manufacturing, and distributing innovative infant and toddler products, is planning to launch a new Grass Fed branded retail-ready infant formula into the United States and China that will be manufactured exclusively by Synlait.

Synlait managing director John Penno said the partnership would help the dairy processor reduce its exposure to China.

“We are cognisant of ensuring our infant formula business does not become overly reliant on the China market, and so Munchkin, with its focus on the United States market, is a potentially important addition to our growing portfolio of retail-ready infant formula customers,” he said in a statement.

The raw milk used to manufacture the unique infant formula is subject to a new Grass Fed standard which requires cows to be exclusively grazed on a pasture and crop-based diet, with no grain feeding or feed not grown in New Zealand.

Farmers will be independently audited to ensure they stick to the standard.

Munchkin chief executive Steve Dunn said the company’s forecast gross revenue for the 2015 financial year was over US$300 million, and he expected the new Grass Fed infant formula business to contribute significantly to its bottom line over time.

Synlait is looking for up to 25 suppliers, depending on size, to join the Grass Fed standard.

Director looking to shoot film on a local rural property Christchurch-based writer and director Julian Vares is planning to shoot at least some of his upcoming short film Thicket on a Mid Canterbury area farm.

However, details are sketchy as Mr Vares is keeping quiet on the project.

He advertised in the Guardian on June 6, seeking a rural location in Mid Canterbury, within one hour’s drive of Rakaia, for an unnamed New Zealand Film Commission-funded short film.

“Looking for a small to medium sized farm (preferably dairy) with an older style house – old weatherboard or similar,” the ad said.

The location was required for two to three days while shooting in August.

Mr Vares has not responded to calls from the Guardian’s editorial department for more information.

The New Zealand Film Commission has been able to confirm, however, that Mr Vares’ upcoming film Thicket received $10,000 funding from the commission in an annual funding allocation round.

Thicket has a 16-year-old protagonist called Elliot, who must choose between leading his own life, or conforming to his father’s wishes.

Property D4 Success of Lake Hood still growing with consistent sales across lifestyle blocks and residential

Industry pundits to boost residential I t’s a new office and three new faces for the growing Bayleys Ashburton team this month as they continue to tighten their hold on the residential marketplace.

With more than 62-years combined real estate experience between them, industry veterans Jenny Gray and Ray Knight bring the Bayleys Ashburton team to a total of 13, eight of whom are dedicated residential experts.

Born and bred Mid-Cantabrian Mark Williams brings 14 years industry experience to his new role of residential sales manager for Mid and South Canterbury.

The announcements come as Bayleys Ashburton ramps up efforts to extend its existing dominance in

rural and lifestyle property across the residential and commercial sectors as well.

As two of Mid Canterbury’s longest serving and most knowledgeable real estate agents, Jenny and Ray are well positioned to generate a significant number of sales for the team and will play an integral role in the continued success of Bayleys Ashburton. general Canterbury Bayleys manager Pete Whalan says while they are new to the Bayleys family, Jenny, Ray and Mark are well established and respected real estate personalities.

“They know this market better than anyone and in this business industry knowledge is a priceless commodity.

We are thrilled to have them on board

e 19, 2015

New Zealand Daily News, Jun

and look forward to seeing them achieve some great results for our clients,” Mr Whalan says.

Born and raised locally, Jenny has a deep seated understanding of the area and is a well known member of the Ashburton community. She will specialise in residential property and with three decades already under her belt will be a wealth of knowledge for the rest of her team, and her clients.

Ray, also a proud Ashburton local, will work across both residential and commercial real estate. Ray is a familiar face around Ashburton, having spent just over three decades working in the industry. He has his finger on the pulse of local business activity in the district and an intimate

knowledge of the unique commercial property market.

Mr Whalan says, “In 2008 Bayleys opened its first Ashburton office in West Street and was solely dedicated to servicing rural and lifestyle clientele. Just two years ago the decision was made to build a strong presence in the residential sector and our team has enjoyed consistent success ever since”.

In September the team will move into its newly built premises in Westburn Courts on West Street.

From here the team will work to retain its position as the market leader in rural and lifestyle real estate, while bringing its burgeoning residential division to the same level.

Hair-raising problem Stu Oldham

EDITOR

M

id Canterbury businesses will be thrilled their hard work and taxes have made the new Ministry of Business Innovation and Employment building such a glittering statement of their undoubted success.

Or, as further details emerge of profligate spending on an allbut gold-plated building in Wellington, they might wonder why this particular department isn’t tightening its belt like everyone else. It is almost possible to accept that the busy department needed a $74,000 reception desk to help it greet, with its best foot forward, its many job and money-generating clients.

Given that, it is also very nearly possible to accept that it needed to spend more than $16,000 on waiting area soft furnishings and a coffee table, to make its potentially important visitors comfy.

The $140,000 big screen message board in the reception area also very nearly makes sense, given the work, numbers and information that the super ministry needs to get to people who drive our economy.

The $70,000 stone sign outside seems extravagant – but given all the shiny things in the new office building, why wouldn’t you want a decent sign to encourage people inside for a look?

The minister in charge, Stephen Joyce, has focused on the fact that the new building came in $2 million under budget and that it would have been $40 million more expensive to stay in its old buildings.

He says he is disappointed in some of the spending decisions, but he must be ropeable that he allowed his own department to ignore years of government fiscal restraint in such an obvious fashion.

Speaking of fashion, nothing says more about the runaway spending than $400 hair straighteners in the women’s changing room. Plenty was spent on looking good, rather than on the right look.

Labour’s David Clark called it a “whale of a spend-up at MoBIE” but National back-bencher Judith Collins couldn’t believe that “party of the workers” objected to “staff having access to hair straighteners”.

Who’d begrudge taxpayerfunded grooming in a wellgroomed, taxpayer-funded office.

YOUR VIEW Water management I am surprised Ashburton and its surrounding districts could not find an available suitable venue for the Hinds Plains hearings.

Having spent the day at Lincoln yesterday I observed that the requirements were not that onerous: a room that seats about 20 and access to electricity and indoor plumbing.

Ian Mackenzie In response to Mr Mackenzie’s previous letter (Water hearing, June 16), Environment Canterbury said it could not find a suitable venue in Ashburton that would be available for the entire Land and Water Regional Plan Variation Two hearing.

Give me decent commentary Phill Hooper OFF THE AIR

I

s it just me?

Last weekend I found myself yelling at the television screen again during a super rugby game.

This time it wasn’t because of yet another time-wasting scrum reset, although they do still drag a derogatory comment from my lips.

This time I was aiming my dissent directly at Matthew Cooper, the so-called sideline comments man.

I pay good money (and anyone who knows me well will know that I don’t like parting with it at the best of times) to receive Sky TV each month and yet the Sky Sports people insist on ramming former rugby players into my lounge as a part of their commentary team.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying all of the ex-players are rubbish. I think Richard Turner does a great job and Andrew Mehrtens is growing into the role.

This is not a personal attack on Cooper, I don’t know the man. He may well be one of the nicest blokes you’ll ever meet, but in my opinion he is crap behind the mic. His “nothing” comments like “Gee he’s a good young player” drive me nuts!

Why is he a good player?

Is he a balanced runner who always beats the first tackle?

Is his reading of a game on defence top class? Give me

Guardian ASHBURTON

Matthew Cooper

more man!

It may not be his fault! I wonder if he has had his role spelt out clearly?

Here’s what I want from the commentary team.

The main commentator calls the action play by play, for the record I think Grant Nisbett and Tony Johnson are two of the best in the world at this. I also enjoy the wit Scotty Stevenson adds to his calls.

Beside him I want a comments man. Someone who offers expert analysis of pivotal moments that just happened or his opinion about what could happen in the near future, eg “The backs are up very quickly, so expect to see a grubber kick behind them from the first five”.

I actually think that Justin Marshall does this quite well at times, when he remains calm!

SAY

The sideline comments man keeps an eye on weather conditions, changes of wind direction or rain starting etc – information that could affect the game.

I want him to tell me what’s happening on the bench, who’s warming up and why is he coming off ?

I want him to back up the comments man from the ground with stuff like, “there’s much more chatter coming from the All Blacks front row, they really look to be dominating the opposition now”.

This person does not necessarily need to be a former All Black and Ian Smith is your evidence, the best sideline rugby man is a former New Zealand Cricket player.

I want them to bin the interview with the player as they are leaving the field at halftime.

These are full of clichés and add nothing to the viewing experience.

I do want the sideline man to chat with the coaches at halftime, but with prepared and insightful questions that delve into the minds of the coaching staff.

I don’t care how good a footy player someone was back in their day, if they can’t add something to the commentary team, get rid of them and find someone who can.

In brief

Church shooting claims nine A white man opened fire during a prayer meeting inside a historic black church in downtown Charleston yesterday, killing nine people in an assault that authorities described as a hate crime. The shooter remained at large last night.

Police Chief Greg Mullen said he believed the attack at the Emanuel AME Church was a hate crime, and police were looking for a white male in his early 20s.

“The only reason that someone could walk into a church and shoot people praying is out of hate,” said Charleston Mayor Joseph P. Riley. “It is the most dastardly act that one could possibly imagine, and we will bring that person to justice. ...

This is one hateful person.”

The attack came two months after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man, Walter Scott, by a white police officer in neighbouring North Charleston that sparked major protests and highlighted racial tensions in the area.

The officer has been charged with murder, and the case prompted South Carolina lawmakers to push through a bill helping all police agencies in the state get body cameras.

Governor Nikki Haley asked South Carolinians to pray for the victims and their families and decried violence on religious places.

“While we do not yet know all of the details, we do know that we’ll never understand what motivates anyone to enter

Portuguese officials say a bus carrying Dutch tourists has crashed in southern Portugal, killing three of the tourists and injuring 30 others and the Portuguese bus driver. Emergency team leader Vitor Vaz Pinto said the bus went off a highway and rolled over into a gully. Vaz Pinto said the bus was carrying 33 Dutch tourists who had arrived at Faro airport in Portugal’s Algarve region, one of Europe’s most popular vacation destinations. Some 156 rescue workers, 101 emergency vehicles and two helicopters attended the scene.

one of our places of worship and take the life of another,” Haley said.

Soon after the shooting, a group of pastors huddled together praying in a circle across the street.

Community organiser Christopher Cason said he felt certain the shootings were racially motivated.

“I am very tired of people telling me that I don’t have the right to be angry,” Cason said.

“I am very angry right now.”

Even before Scott’s shooting in April, Cason said he had been part of a group meeting with police and local leaders to try to shore up better relationships.

The Emmanuel AME church is a historic African-American church that traces its roots to 1816, when several churches split from Charleston’s Methodist Episcopal church.

One of its founders, Denmark Vesey, tried to organise a slave

revolt in 1822. He was caught, and white landowners had his church burned in revenge. Parishioners worshipped underground until after the Civil War. The church’s current pastor is state Sen. Clementa Pinckney.

Mullen would not say whether Pinckney was inside the church at the time of the shooting.

Mullen said there were some survivors, but he didn’t say how many.

Mass held for Berkeley balcony victims Hundreds attended a Mass for victims of a deadly Berkeley balcony collapse, with the Catholic priest calling on people to offer support for the families of the six young people killed and seven injured.

Father Aidan McAleenan said at Oakland’s Cathedral that family members right now are focused on their loved ones rather than on the cause of the tragedy.

“We may well wonder and want to lash out and talk about the balcony and who built it,” said Father Aidan McAleenan, who rushed to hospitals after hearing of the disaster. “But at the end of the day what (families) want the most is to see their loved ones. They want to touch them, they want to hold them and they want to kiss them.”

Some families arrived from Ireland and were met by repre-

Bus crash kills 3

sentatives from the Irish Consulate. None of them apparently attended the Mass, which drew some 300 people from around the San Francisco Bay Area.

A candlelight vigil for the victims was also held.

Earlier yesterday, Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates said the balcony collapse appears to have

been caused by rotted wooden beams. He said investigators believe the wood was not caulked and sealed properly at the time of construction and was damaged by moisture as a result.

The crowded fifth-floor balcony broke off an apartment building during a 21st birthday party early Tuesday held by visiting Irish college students, dumping 13 people 50 feet onto the pavement.

“More than likely it was caused by rain and caused by water damage that was done to the support beams,” Bates said.

He said it was “obviously a bad idea” for 13 people to crowd onto such a small balcony — it was about 40 square feet — but added that he is not blaming the victims.

Later in the day, however, the mayor said the water-damage theory was speculation on his part and not an official conclu-

sion, and that the investigation is still under way.

Building inspectors also determined another balcony at the Library Gardens apartment complex was “structurally unsafe and presented a collapse hazard.” They ordered it demolished.

Two other balconies were red-tagged, or declared offlimits, at the apartments, which were completed in 2007 and are popular among visiting students and those at the nearby University of California, Berkeley.

Segue Construction, the Library Gardens general contractor, was involved in two San Francisco Bay Area lawsuits in recent years involving allegations of dry rot and substandard balconies at condo and apartment projects in Millbrae and San Jose.

Survivor gives $25,000 One of the survivors of Sydney’s deadly Lindt Cafe siege has donated the $25,000 she received from a television interview to the hospital that cared for her. Louisa Hope, 52, was shot in the ankle during the traumatic ordeal last December, which took the lives of fellow hostages Katrina Dawson and Tori Johnson. Ms Hope was taken to Prince of Wales Hospital to recover, a process that has been lengthened by her multiple sclerosis. She would go on to appear on television to tell her story, but instead of pocketing her pay-off, she is giving it to the hospital.

Comet robot wakes up European scientists are confident they’ll soon be able to start experiments on the surface of a speeding comet after a spacecraft lost for months on its surface suddenly “woke up” this week.

Barbara Cozzoni, lander control centre engineer for the German Eerospace Centre, told reporters at the International Paris Air Show that information gleaned from the Philae lander’s brief transmissions on June 13 and 14 had begun to be deciphered. She said all four of Philae’s solar panels are collecting energy and the spacecraft’s internal temperature was in the correct range.

This is in contrast to the S&P500 in the US which has gained more than 1.50 per cent, and the Nikkei in Japan has gained over 5 per cent. The quarter has been characterised by volatility and a true reflection of this is seen in China’s Shanghai Index, up a massive 32.5 per cent.

Locally this week we saw another disappointing result from the global dairy trade auction.

Dairy prices dropped 1.3 per cent, the seventh consecutive fall.

The international dairy market continues to be plagued by over supply and lower demand, in particular from China. In slightly better news, the price

for whole milk powder, New Zealand’s largest product group, slipped only slightly.

Fonterra offered only 10,000 tonnes at the latest auction, the least amount made available year to date. Forecasts are for whole milk powder prices to begin to increase in July as the new season gets under way.

The lower dairy prices this year have been a drag on New Zealand’s GDP growth, which saw only 0.2 per cent growth for the first quarter of the year.

This is the weakest growth rate in two years.

A drop in activity in the oil and gas industry also helped to contribute to the weaker than expected result. Annualised growth was 3.2 per cent, only slightly below forecasts.

The weak headline figure is likely to increase speculation that the RBNZ will cut rates again in the near future after cutting the OCR by 25 basis points just last week.

Greece continues to plague markets and the subject of a ‘Grexit’ – Greece exiting the Eurozone – is now being openly

discussed by European leaders.

Last weekend communication broke down between Greek leaders and the IMF which saw the IMF contingent head back to Washington and abandon discussions citing major differences.

Earlier in the week Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, accused creditors of trying to humiliate Greece in an address to parliament. Time is running out for the indebted nation with European leader saying that an agreement must be reached by the end of the week so that the €1.6 billion payment to the IMF can be made. If the payment is not made Greece will default on its loan and will ultimately see the country ejected from the euro currency bloc and eventually the European Union.

The US Federal Reserve met this week to discuss the US economy. Expectations were for no action to be taken, and this came to fruition. However the commentary from the meeting was followed closely as markets looked for clues on when the first rate hike will occur. Fed

nancial crisis in countries where banks were bailed out as ‘too big to fail’ than in countries where banks faced at least some losses as a result of the meltdown predominantly felt in the North American, European and Japanese financial sectors, where credit expansion and the growth of poorly understood financial innovations caused what is now referred to as the Great Recession, which is still under way in some OECD countries.

New Zealand and Australia largely escaped the worst effects of the GFC because its banks were not heavily involved in the kinds of financial products that saw bank bailouts and the disappearance from the global stage of banking houses such as Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns, which had previously been assumed to be rock-solid.

“Finance is a vital ingredient of economic growth, but there can be too much of it,” the OECD study says. “Over the

past 50 years, credit by banks and other institutions to households and businesses has grown three times as fast as economic activity.

“At these levels, further expansion is likely to slow long-term growth and raise inequality.”

The paper suggests bank financing also crowds out more growth-producing uses for money, including stock-market equity raising.

“More stock market financing boosts growth in most OECD countries,” the report says, along with findings that “credit is a stronger drag on growth when it goes to households rather than businesses.”

While there is short-term harm to economic growth when measures are taken to restrict the growth of bank credit, “reforms to make the financial sector more stable can be expected to boost long-term economic growth and improve economic inequality.”

Growth of bank lending has gone too far – OECD The growth of bank lending has gone too far and has become a drag on economic growth, says ground-breaking economic analysis by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

The Paris-based ‘rich countries’ club’, covering 34 nations including New Zealand, published the new findings yesterday, saying that for every 10 per cent of gross domestic product increase in bank credit, there was a corresponding 0.3 per cent reduction in annual GDP growth rates.

It suggests that while widespread financial deregulation over the past 40 years had initially boosted economic growth rates, “it appears to have gone too far, weakening economic fundamentals”.

It also found there was a larger reduction in economic growth after the 2008 global fi-

Chair Janet Yellen commented that the committee wanted to see further strengthening in the labour market, particularly in regards to wage expansion and the low labour force participation rate.

The economy is growing at a moderate pace after a difficult winter period and that the recovery was on track. It looks as though the economy is still on track to grow as much as 2 per cent this year indicating that it is likely strong enough to support a rate increase.

Traders are now pricing in a 26 per cent chance of a September rate hike and 66 per cent chance of a December hike.

Yellen’s comments however resonate that investors should be looking at the trajectory of rate increases and placing less pressure on when the first one might happen.

reece has yet again dominated headlines this week, as the indebted nation and creditors continue to butt heads over the terms of the final tranche of bailout funds.

The US Federal Reserve meeting provided a beacon of hope for investors as the committee was upbeat on the current shape of the US economy.

In New Zealand we saw yet another drop in the global dairy price, as well as low, but still positive GDP growth, for the first quarter of the year.

The Reserve Bank of Australia released minutes from its latest meeting which highlighted again the hot housing market across the Tasman.

We are now nearing the end of the second quarter of the year and interestingly all major markets are showing gains year to date, although there have been a few lacklustre performances for this quarter.

The NZX50 is currently down for the quarter by around 1 per cent, the ASX200 is down around 6 per cent, the

■ CRICKET

English adopt Kiwi aggression New Zealand’s aggressive style has helped rejuvenate England’s one-day international performances but, with the series locked at 2-2 heading into the weekend’s decider at Durham, there is a threat that mimicry may extend to triumph.

A win in the fifth match would secure a fourth successive series victory for New Zealand but an England batting juggernaut, in which no batsman scored at less than a run a ball in Nottingham, stands in their way.

The visitors could point to a couple of areas for improvement but, in essence, the hosts never looked like losing, even after 349 for seven was posted.

“Wickets have been tough to come by throughout the series,” New Zealand all-rounder Grant Elliott said. “But that MorganRoot [198-run] partnership took the game away. As a bowling unit we struggled to find the right lengths; it might have skidded on a touch better in the second innings, but they were class innings.

“There weren’t too many opportunities and the catching was poor from both teams.”

New Zealand’s assault suffered a hiccup from overs 35-39 in the batting powerplay. Ross Taylor was out on the third ball for 42 off 55 balls, leaving Mark Wood and Steve Finn to restrict Elliott and Kane Williamson to 23 runs, including 20 dot balls.

The bowling pair produced strong figures by modern standards. Wood had one for 49 and Finn one for 51 from their allotment.

“With 350 for England to chase, I thought we had a good chance,” Elliott said. “Finn and Wood bowled well but we knew we could score runs in the final 10 overs. I’m gutted I didn’t get Kane on strike as much as

England’s Joe Root (left) celebrates with Ben Stokes after England beat New Zealand by seven wickets during the fourth ODI. AP PHOTO

I should have, but tried to make up for that with Mitchell Santner, who batted beautifully.”

Santner and Elliott put on 71 for the sixth-wicket from 30 balls. Santner made 44 from 19 balls and Elliott was left not out on 55 from 52.

Elliott said personnel changes to both teams have tipped the form scale since New Zealand’s World Cup victory.

“They’ve put more aggressive players in, so I’m not surprised,” Elliott said. “We don’t have Dan Vettori, Corey Anderson and now Trent Boult, so we’re trying to find new combinations but it’s a great opportunity for

guys light on experience to step up.”

England captain Eoin Morgan scored 113 runs from 82 balls, his eighth ODI century, but arguably his most important as he endeavours to stamp his leadership credentials on a revamped team.

“I’ve pushed the guys to get as much as they can out of themselves because to beat New Zealand, who are a quality side, we need to be at our best.

“The World Cup was terrible. Straussy [new director of cricket Andrew Strauss] allowed me another opportunity.

This is a good starting point.

We’ve never played in this fashion before.”

Morgan said the key remains a change in mindset.

“All our [team] chats have been about forgetting the scoreboard. At the start of the series, I said the selection reflected the way we wanted to play. All the guys bat in an aggressive manner.

“After the second drinks break, we got together and said if we could chase something in the region of 340 that would be okay.

It won’t be like this every game, or every series, but we have to be good enough to execute and perform that way.”

Warriors cautious over Hoffman start The Warriors will take a waitand-see approach before declaring Ryan Hoffman a certain starter for tomorrow’s away clash with the Gold Coast Titans after the back-rower was forced from the field with a head knock during Wednesday’s second State of Origin clash in Melbourne.

Hoffman was hit on the chin with a swinging arm in a tackle

by Queensland centre Justin Hodges eight minutes from halftime in the MCG encounter, although the incident escaped the attention of match officials.

The 31-year-old passed the regulation concussion tests and

In brief Nightingale signs Kiwis test winger Jason Nightingale is reportedly set to turn down a big-money offer from the Warriors to remain a one-club player with the St George-Illawarra Dragons. Ahead of the Dragons’ grudge match against the Sydney Roosters on Monday, Sydney’s Daily Telegraph says Nightingale will agree to a two-year extension with the Dragons. The news comes after Warriors coach Andrew McFadden was spotted together with managing director Jim Doyle, meeting with the 28-year-old flyer at a St Heliers café last Saturday.

The Dragons are tipped to confirm Nightingale’s retention in the coming days while he is believed to have agreed to take a significant pay cut to remain in the Red V, after previously being ranked among the highest paid wingers in the NRL. - NZME

returned to the park in the second half to play a vital role in the Blues’ 26-18 series-levelling win.

It is the third time this season Hoffman has been forced from the park by head-knocks, but Warriors coach Andrew McFadden was hopeful both he and Queensland prop Jacob Lillyman would be fit to back-up in a crucial match against the Titans, after back-to-back losses to the Rabbitohs and Roosters “We’ve touched base with both camps [NSW and Queensland] and at this stage both are available,” McFadden said.

“Obviously Ryan copped a bit of a head knock there and he was cleared by the doctor but

we’ll still wait and see how he feels when we get to the Gold Coast.

“Jacob has got a bit of a stiff neck but that’s about it.”

Before the Origin knock, Hoffman had to be helped from the field at Pirtek Stadium after he clashed heads with Eels hooker Nathan Peats as the pair fell to the ground in a tackle.

Three weeks earlier he was also knocked out in the Warriors’ Anzac Day clash with the Titans after a high tackle from Greg Bird.

After reacting to Hodges taunting him for a handling error in the Origin opener three weeks ago, Hoffman was collected high by the 33-year-old

Brisbane veteran, but quickly leapt to his feet and played the ball before he was eventually taken out of play by NSW coach Laurie Daley.

After the game, Hodges was charged with a grade one dangerous tackle but will be free to play in the Broncos’ round 15 NRL match against the Storm in Melbourne on Sunday, regardless if he contests the charge or takes the early plea.

The charge carries 75 points for a guilty verdict, with the early guilty plea earning 56 points.

Meanwhile, injured fullback Sam Tomkins is in contention to play the Titans despite not being named in the Warriors’ 18-man squad.

Auckland marathon organisers have acknowledged they expect to take a financial hit on this year’s event because of the clash with the Rugby World Cup final.

Both events will take place on the morning of November 1. The cup final starts at 5.30am, the marathon half an hour later.

No entry numbers have been released for the marathon yet, but event boss Jane Patterson admitted “we are of the mind” that the financial return might be grim, adding it was too early to speculate on how many runners would gather at the startline, but organisers are preparing for a disappointing return. “We accept that and hope the runners will remember that and support us next year,” Patterson, chief operating officer of Ironman, Australia New Zealand, said.

Hunt wants to fight Kiwi UFC heavyweight Mark Hunt has heard the criticism following his one-sided loss to Stipe Miocic at UFC Fight Night 65 in Adelaide last month, but he is determined to fight on. The 41-year-old could have put his name in the title mix with a victory over Miocic (13-2) but the Super Samoan was battered throughout the contest before the referee finally halted proceedings in the fifth frame to give Miocic a TKO victory. Hunt (10-10-1) spoke to Australian podcast Submission Radio about the fight this week and said he still wanted to be on the scheduled UFC 193 card in Melbourne in November.

Fairytale finish Fighters are rarely given the opportunity to sign off with a storybook ending. Whether it’s because they fight on too long or the dangerous nature of the sport strikes, few athletes get the chance to finish the way they always imagined they would.

Porirua kickboxer Sone Vannathy has pulled on his gloves for more than 70 bouts in a 20-year career and the 34-year-old could sign off in perfect fashion tonight in what will likely be his final showing in his hometown. The two-time defending champion headlines the strong eight-man field that will contest the King in the Ring 62kg event at the Te Rauparaha Arena in Porirua.

Highlanders set for ‘real good battle’ Highlanders coach Jamie Joseph says his side will not look to make big changes to the way they play against the Chiefs at Forsyth Barr Stadium tomorrow night.

Joseph named his side yesterday for the playoff clash and brought back in a couple of his key men.

Malakai Fekitoa is over a groin injury to start at centre while No 8 and co-captain Nasi Manu returns to the back of the scrum.

Experienced lock Mark Reddish is over his hand injury and

comes back into the second row with Joe Latta moving to the reserves.

Dan Pryor moves to the openside flank to make way for the returning Manu with John Hardie out injured with sore ribs.

Joseph said it was not an easy team to select. “The guys who came in for them have done the job in their absence so it was a difficult team to pick,” he said.

“Malakai had a groin injury and he has come back really well.

Nasi, we could have played him last week, but the docs felt he could do with another week, so

we gave him that.”

The coach said he had not thought much about the Chiefs, although they were a dangerous side.

“We have talked about how we need to perform and what we do during the week and that is our focus . . . If we can cross our t’s and dot our i’s and do what we have been doing all week and perform on the weekend I’m confident we will get across the line.

of the squad because of concussion. Tom Marshall, who has a knee injury, is replaced at fullback by Damian McKenzie.

The forwards have been boosted in size with regular lock Mike Fitzgerald going to the blindside flank. Hooker Hika Elliot will play his 100th game at this level.

Elliot joined the Hurricanes in 2008 after stand-out form for his home province of Hawke’s Bay. After two seasons, he joined the Chiefs in 2010 and was a key member of the title winning side in 2012 and 2013. - NZME

The cut-throat nature of playoff rugby meant the two wins the Highlanders recorded over the Chiefs this season were irrelevant, Joseph said.

■ NETBALL

In brief

Snow cans premier matches

By CaitLin Porter

caitlin.p@theguardian.co.nz

Despite netball’s move indoors to the EA Networks Centre stadium, snow across Mid Canterbury yesterday meant last night’s premier and senior A matches had to be called off.

The call was made at 4pm yesterday by the board of Mid Canterbury Netball in conjunction with its administrator Aimee Rickard.

President of Mid Canterbury Netball Karla Newlands said it wasn’t a decision that was made lightly, but in the end abandoning the games was the best de-

cision for everybody.

Newlands said it had already been decided that the two Methven games would be called off as it was too dangerous for the players to make the trip into Ashburton.

“I know we are playing indoors but it’s just people getting there, and then leaving, in particular at 8.30pm, if it keeps snowing,” Newlands said.

The three premier and three senior A games that were meant to be played last night have been cancelled and will not be played at a later date.

“They won’t be replayed and

no points will be given, we will just go straight into the next round next week,” Newlands said.

Back in 2013, a slew of rained off matches resulted in the netball season extending into September, rather than finishing up in August.

Newlands said this was a problem for many people in the community, particularly farmers who were calving.

To combat this the competition moved to its current format.

“Hopefully it won’t happen again this year so we don’t have

to worry,” Newlands said Next week marks the fifth and final week of premier netball’s second round and it will see the two unbeaten teams, Ashburton College A and Methven, face off for the top spot. College B will be looking to chalk up some points against Hampstead B, in an effort to fend off a potential promotion/relegation match against Senior A’s top team Rakaia. In the early premier match, United play Celtic.

In senior A, Rakaia square off against Methven B, College Y9A play Collegiate A and Hampstead B face Celtic B.

Origin for NZ? State of Origin would go “gangbusters” in New Zealand, according to the promoters of the NRL Nines, as the game’s powerbrokers move to further expand the reach of the interstate series. Buoyed by the phenomenal success of Origin II in Melbourne, the NRL have signalled their intention to take the game’s showpiece to Perth and internationally to New Zealand.

A record crowd of 91,513 jammed into the MCG to witness NSW’s 26-18 win in game two to further impress Origin’s standing as rugby league’s showpiece event. Dates for the 2016 and 2017 series have already been locked in with the MCG down to host another game in 2018. That means Auckland’s Eden Park will have to wait until at least 2019 to host Origin.

Injuries add to late night ball distraction

By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

A late night at the Ashburton College ball is less than ideal preparation for a clash with a top four team in the UC Rugby Championship.

The Ashburton College 1st XV was unable to get Shirley to move the game or delay the kick-off and heads to Christchurch tomorrow following the school formal tonight.

The onus will go on the players to turn up prepared and switched on for what will be a tough test with Shirley sitting fourth on the table after just the one loss and coming off a bye.

College collected their second win beating Lincoln 36-8.

College coach Dave McCrea had called upon his pack to deliver a strong start upfront and they delivered.

“They should take plenty of confidence from that performance. Especially the forward pack after the way they fronted up,” McCrea said.

They’ll need more of the same or face a long day at the office.

Not helping matters has been more injury woes - senior forward Sean McCormack and

captain Benji Barry are out, with Cam McLeod under an injury cloud.

But McCrea believes their biggest hurdle will be the ball and the mental state his players

turn up in.

Elsewhere Mid Canterbury ex-pat Jesse Houston and the defending champion CBHS chase an eighth straight win against Burnside - who have

lost their last three on the trot.

Hot on their heels is St Andrews – featuring expats Jack Griffiths and Luke Gilbert who also remain unbeaten and are at home to Waimea.

Third-ranked France bounced back from a shock defeat to Colombia by whipping Mexico 5-0 in Ottawa to finish top of Group F with six points.

England, also on six points, but behind France on goal difference, beat Colombia 2-1 in Montreal and advance second from the group.

bridge 4-1 – the first team to beat Cambridge and on their first outing away from the Ashburton turf in seven weeks.

In week eight they host Timaru Girls’ High School, who they struggled to put away 4-3 in round one.

Hampstead-Collegians could bear the brunt as Cambridge

look to bounce back but the locals are on a hot streak with two wins and two draws from their last four games.

In the men’s competition Wakanui Black will be aiming to bank another bonus point win over Timaru Boys to continue to put pressure on Tainui at the top of the table.

Black beat the schoolboys 4-1 in the first round and, coming off the big 6-0 win over Tainui, will not want to slip up.

Wakanui Blue bested Timaru Boys 6-1 as strike weapon Hayden Sinclair scored four goals and he will aim to keep his scoring run going against Cambridge.

Wallabies duo David Pocock and Matt Toomua have both been named in the Brumbies’ side to face the Stormers in this weekend’s Super Rugby qualifying final in Cape Town. Pocock suffered concussion during last weekend’s loss to the Crusaders but is in line to make his first playoffs appearance at DHL Newlands on Sunday. Toomua looks set to again play off the bench, having been named as a reserve in an unchanged line-up.

Two separate ankle injuries have restricted the star playmaker to just two games of the last eight due to two ankle injuries.

Swimmer fails test Her Rio Olympics dreams are in jeopardy and her 2013 world championship relay teammates could have their silver medals stripped. There’s a lot riding on Olympic gold medallist Kylie Palmer achieving what she concedes is almost impossible - discovering how she came to test positive to a tiny quantity of a banned drug almost two years ago. Palmer has withdrawn from the Australian team for next month’s world championships in Russia after accepting a provisional suspension pending a tribunal hearing, having only been told of the positive test in April.

The alleged doping offence stems from a test taken at the 2013 world titles in Barcelona, where she won a 4x200m freestyle relay silver medal with Bronte Barratt, Brittany Elmslie and Alicia Coutts.

Commonwealth Games medallists Anton Cooper and Sam Gaze head a 30-strong New Zealand team for both crosscountry and downhill events at Vallnord in Andorra from September 1-6.

The elite cross-country riders are chasing qualifying points and selection to the Rio Olympics, while the gravity riders are looking to again force their way into contention.

Burgess is in Europe to contest four UCIU Downhill World Cup events He had initially departed from Europe unsure whether he would compete in the World Championships but planned to attend at least as a spectator.

His first stop in Europe was Scotland’s Fort William.

Burgess clocked a 6:11.973 to finish 39th in the under-23 qualifying - over a minute behind the fastest rider - with the top 30 advancing to the final.

Next up was Leogang in Aus-

tria where Burgess improved to be only 23.585 seconds off the top seed but his 37th place again had him sit out the finals.

The next stop of the Downhill World Cup is Switzerland in July and then Italy in August before the World Championships.

The New Zealand downhill riders are headed by the trio of world class professionals.

Brook MacDonald was the leading Kiwi on the podium in fifth at last year’s worlds, and will again be a contender, along with his current national champion, George Brannigan, and former Wanganui rider Sam Blenkinsop.

Cooper, the Commonwealth Games gold medallist, was the best of the Kiwi cross-country riders at last year’s world championships, finishing sixth in the under-23 race.

Compatriot Gaze, who won the silver medal at Glasgow, has been in top form this year finishing fifth and seventh in the opening two rounds of the under-23 category of the Crosscountry World Cup.

Horrell handed keys to attack machine Andrew Horrell will bring a couple of contradictory features to the Chiefs’ No10 jersey tomorrow night.

While bearing the benefits of a number of outings under the brightest of playoff lights, Horrell may also display signs of recent rust in the first-five position.

The Chiefs are confident the former will outweigh the latter and last night installed Horrell at the heart of their attack for the winner-take-all encounter with the Highlanders in Dunedin. After Aaron Cruden’s season ended in April, the Chiefs shared his jersey among three men. Marty McKenzie was handed the opening opportunity and eventually managed four starts, while younger brother Damian enjoyed a pair of runs after initially appearing the most likely option.

Horrell, on the other hand, has started just once, in last month’s 16-15 loss to the Rebels, providing a solid if unspectacular display before again

Andrew Horrell will wear the No10 jersey.

assuming the utility role for which he’s become known in Hamilton.

But the 26-year-old was originally signed as a No10 – proceeding to act as an unseen understudy to the ever-present Cruden – and he has featured at first five from the bench this season.

Of more importance to the Chiefs coaches, though, Horrell helped Dave Rennie return two titles in his first two years with the Chiefs, holding a level of intimacy with playoff rugby that

proved decisive.

“Experience is probably the key factor,” said assistant coach Tom Coventry. “We’re looking at getting the most experienced backline on the field as we can, particularly in these big moments. As we know, experience counts for a lot when you’re playing in a do-or-die match.

“You bring back all those experiences that you’ve had over the last few seasons, so we’re going to rely pretty heavily on Hozza’s experience this weekend.”

In case the repeated references failed to offer a hint, the E-word factored heavily into the selection puzzle, especially in a backline shorn of Charlie Ngatai (concussion), Tom Marshall (knee) and Augustine Pulu (arm).

But it was far from the only consideration.

Were he unrequired at fullback, Damian McKenzie may have merited more consideration, boasting an ability to break the line conducive to the type of rugby available under the Dunedin roof.

And perhaps, had his past few performances been more eye-catching, Marty McKenzie could have locked down the position he owned for the last three weeks.

But Horrell’s direction of play and understanding of his side’s attacking structures were eventually pivotal, especially in a team needing to jump-start that facet after the heavy loss to the Highlanders three weeks ago.

Gallen in doubt for Origin III NSW and Cronulla skipper Paul Gallen will undergo scans to determine if he will be fit for the State of Origin decider.

Gallen suffered rib cartilage damage in the first half of NSW’s 26-18 win over Queensland in Origin II on Wednesday night at the MCG. He left the field but returned to finish the game with the aid of a painkilling injection.

“I’m not sure what to make of it at this stage. I’ve never had rib cartilage problems before,” Gallen said.

“I’ll have the scans but it will be a matter of how much pain I can put up with.”

Gallen will be assessed today

by Sharks medical staff. He is in extreme doubt for the Sharks’ clash on Sunday afternoon with the Newcastle.

NSW coach Laurie Daley says Gallen is one of the toughest players ever to pull on the Blues jersey.

Brazilian players celebrate their semi-final win over Senegal.

U20 finale a beaut It’s a battle of David and Goliath in the Fifa Under-20 World Cup final as fivetime winners Brazil take on Serbia – a team with no titles who are playing at the tournament for the first time since 1987.

Five reasons the final will be a great occasion: 1. Another sold-out football game in New Zealand Getting 25,000 fans along to a football game in New Zealand is no easy feat, but Fifa have managed it twice this World Cup. The Junior All Whites’ opener was a sell-out and tomorrow’s final will follow suit, transforming the typically dreary and dull North Harbour Stadium into a cultural melting pot of colour, chanting and world class football.

2. Brazil have found their mojo After stuttering through the knockout stages without scoring a goal from open play, Brazil have finally found their mojo. They slipped five goals past Senegal without really getting out of second gear in the semifinal and have finally unleashed their potential. Good news for football neutrals, bad news for Serbia.

3. A star will be born Going on past history, it is likely the crowd tomorrow will see a new star on the rise; maybe a relative unknown putting himself in the global spotlight. In 2013, Paul Pogba inspired France’s vic-

tory over Uruguay while two years earlier Oscar scored a hat-trick in Brazil’s 3-2 win over Portugal. In 2007, Sergio Arguero was a key man for champions Argentina and in 2005 Lionel Messi led the way. Who will it be tomorrow?

4. Serbia could make history The European team hasn’t even featured in this tournament since 1987, either as part of the former Yugoslavia or as an independent nation (since 2006).

Now they are one game away from lifting Fifa’s second most important trophy.

“We are making history for our country,” said Serbian coach Veljko Paunovic.

“We are probably not yet conscious of what we are achieving here.”

The reaction has been massive in Belgrade while the local Serbian community has got behind their team with a huge, vocal bloc of support. It’s special to witness.

5. Fitting finale for a successful tournament While off the field there have been a few issues, the action on the park has been superb over the past three weeks.

Aside from the disappointing quarter-finals, the football has lived up to the hype.

There has been some stunning play and it has been a privilege to watch. Tomorrow’s decider has all the ingredients for a great game, with two teams that have a lot of attacking threats.

Neymar sent off, Brazil crash Brazil superstar Neymar was sent off as the five-time world champions crashed to a 1-0 Copa America defeat against Colombia yesterday.

In sensational scenes after the final whistle, Neymar was shown a red card after an ugly melee involving players of both sides in which he appeared to aim a headbutt at Colombia goalscorer Jeison Murillo.

Colombia striker Carlos Bacca was also shown red following the fracas at the end of a frenetic Group C battle.

Neymar had already ensured he would miss Brazil’s final first round game against Venezuela on Sunday by collecting his second yellow card of the tournament for a deliberate handball in the first half.

Three teams - Brazil, Colombia and

Venezuela - now have three points in Group C. Neymar’s Brazil and Barcelona teammate Dani Alves lashed out at Chilean referee Enrique Osses following the defeat.

“Referees have to stop thinking that they are the stars, the stars are not them - they are there to control the game,” Alves fumed.

“We are used to this in South America everyone here is against Brazil.”

Alves also accused Colombia’s players of seeking to provoke Neymar, 12 months after the striker suffered a broken vertebra during the teams’ stormy World Cup quarter-final battle.

“They know the personality of Neymar and they went in search of him,” he said.

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20) Focus more on listening to the message than on any knee jerk reaction. Next week will be a better time to take action.

TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21) Mercury’s smart head for money and 20/20 hindsight for the third time is coming together with a force that gives work matters clear direction.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 22) As far as your personal journey and your intentions for this new solar year are concerned it’s all about the journey ahead.

CANCER (JUNE 22 – JULY 24) It’s through your daydreams and what your sixth sense is telling you that you’ll get a more accurate sense of what the future holds.

LEO (JULY 24 – AUG 23) You’ve reached an auspicious day for talks, discussions and networking in general, in way that could feel familiar, with an opportunity for a do over.

VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 23) Your ability to read the signs and act on them allows you to tap into today’s serendipitous forces, with you in the right place at the right time.

LIBRA (SEP 23 – OCT 23) The stars are reminding you that across every aspect of your life there’s a need to be true to yourself and that it’s all about the journey.

SCORPIO (OCT 23 – NOV 24) With your professional star on the rise and life’s other demands leaving little time for adventure, there are clues that this is about to change.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 24 – DEC 21) The last few months have been opportune for friendship and relationship building but today’s alliance brings an opportunity to connect.

CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 20) On so many fronts things that have been held back or have been challenged in the first half of the year are emerging as the opportunities that they are.

AQUARIUS (JAN 20 – FEB 19) At the same time things are getting a lot better for your relationships, matters of the heart are receiving a real boost and some real support.

PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 21) You have a smart and also confident take on both home and financial matters, but especially when they come together.

Methven fullback Brenton Connell is likely to be out for the opening round of the Watters Cup after limping off during his side’s Combined Country Cup final win over Waihora in Methven last week.

Unfinished business

BY JONATHAN LEASK

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Coming down from the high of a maiden Combined Country Cup win, Methven have to quickly refocus with more silverware on the line in Mid Canterbury rugby tomorrow.

The Watters Cup roundrobin kicks off with the top two teams from last year playing off for the White Cup as Methven heads to Celtic.

The two clubs will also play for the Bill Walsh Cup, which

has resided in Methven since its inception in 2013.

Celtic will come in reasonably fresh after being able to rest some players in the past two weeks after bowing out to Waihora in the combined quarterfinals.

Methven could be excused for being a little battle-weary after the victorious finals campaign but coach Dale Palmer said the side definitely had unfinished business.

“We have fallen short at the

final hurdle in the Watters Cup in the past two years so there is plenty of motivation to finish the season off,” Palmer said.

“We’ll have that target on our backs now for sure but look forward to the challenge.”

The last few weeks have taken their toll on the injury front with strike weapons Brenton Connell and Fa’aitu Tuamoheloa both unlikely starters in the backs after both limped off during their win over Waihora.

Adding to the tough week, the

snow on the ground last night meant the side was unable to train, which could be a blessing after a rugged few weeks.

The wet weather is set to stick around, which could see some low scoring matches won in the trenches.

In the other match, Hampstead host Southern.

The two sides met in the combined roundrobin - where Southern scored a convincing 44-19 win in Mayfield.

This year’s Watters Cup for-

England copy Kiwi act

U20 final shaping up

P24

mat sees the top two teams at the end of the round meet in the final on August 1 - with no semifinals.

That puts the pressure on from round one.

Hampstead haven’t made the final since 2007 and have been without a roundrobin win for a few seasons while Southern made 11 straight finals from 2001-2011, but have fallen short of the big game since.

Defending champions Rakaia get the week off.
