FERRY SERVICE TOUTED TO LUXURY ISLAND

Set sail to paradise By SAMUEL DAVIS

A BOLD new plan to ferry tourists from Cooktown to the tropical paradise of Lizard Island has been revealed by the Cook Shire mayor. Around 90 kilometres adrift from Cooktown, Lizard Island has returned to its former glory almost a decade on from the devastation caused by Tropical Cyclone Ita.

And with its shimmering waters, pristine coral reefs and technicolour sunsets, visitors to the remote island almost exclusively arrive via small aircraft. But Cook Shire mayor Peter Scott said that may change with hopes a ferry service can soon whisk travellers from the banks of the Endeavour River to the gorgeous white sands of Anchor Bay.

“We have a beautiful harbour in Cooktown at the mouth of the river,” Cr Scott said. “It’s sheltered and we see it as very much under-utilised. “We’ve got a lot of culture and natural beauty in our part of the world and I think that’s the experience people are looking for. “At the moment, most people fly to the island in small planes to

get there but not everyone likes that. So, we think our suggestion is a good one.” Bought by Aussie billionaire Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest for $42 million last year, Lizard Island Resort is currently managed by Delaware North. Cook Shire hopes to speak to the mining magnate’s representatives soon to outline the proposal.

“He’s obviously done some work to improve the resort,” Cr Scott said of the island getaway’s new owner. “Lizard Island has always been high-end and managed by people with strong business acumen. “We’ve made contact with them. We’re just waiting for them to get back to us.” Continued – Page 5

TWO tug boats were fiercely trying to keep a bulk carrier from grounding in the Weipa harbour yesterday. Cape York Weekly could not ascertain all the details at the time of going to print, however it appeared the Bei Dou Star had lost power and steering. Witnesses at Gongbung Point said black smoke was puffing out of one tug boat as it tried desperately to keep the vessel in position. More tug boats were being assembled to attempt to move the Panama-flagged Bei Dou Star back to port. Making efforts more difficult was the fact the vessel was loaded with bauxite. See next week’s paper for more details.

Before and after – remedial works on the bank of this creek have proven to be successful.

Project tackling erosion MORE than 630 tonnes of sediment will be kept out of the Endeavour River catchment and off the Great Barrier Reef as a result of a $1.2 million project. The Riparian Recovery Project, funded by the state and federal governments’ Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements program, was completed in June by Townsville-based Neilly Group Engineering with support from Cape York Natural Resource Management. At Mount Olive, north of Cooktown, an eroding riverbank was reshaped and bolstered with rock to prevent further erosion, with the site topsoiled, seeded and planted with more than 1200 native trees. At Scrubby Creek, also north

of Cooktown, an eroded bank was regraded, and the upstream bank was bolstered and piles installed to divert flow from the

bank and stabilise the site during recovery. The site was also topsoiled, seeded and planted with more than 500 native species.

Cape York NRM grazing and water quality project officer Harry James said in addition to protecting the health of waterways heading to the reef, the works helped restore riparian vegetation connectivity along the Endeavour. “The work was a great success and the landowners were very supportive,” he told Cape York Weekly. “We got washed out once or twice with some late rains, and Neilly Group had to make a couple of adjustments to the original designs to make it work on the ground, but we are really happy with the results and we can’t wait to see the sites recover and revegetate over the next couple of years.”

PLANNED upgrades to “notoriously unreliable” telecommunications services have been cautiously welcomed by Cape York leaders. The Torres Cape Indigenous Councils Alliance was briefed by Telstra on upcoming major works earlier this month, including a plan to introduce a 4G network in Lockhart River starting next year. But mayor Wayne Butcher said lives will remain at risk until mobile phone reception improves in the area. “We’re fortunate we haven’t had any serious injuries or deaths due to breakdowns in our community,” Cr Butcher said. “It’s become a really big safety concern. “We’ve had some car accidents during telecommunications breakdowns. “We’ve been fortunate in those cases vehicles have gone past. “There have been people trapped between rivers. I’m still a bit worried about that.” While more expensive, Cr Butcher said delivering fibre optic cable remains the best solution for his community’s communication woes. “There are a lot of excuses about the terrain but I think when you look at the value – last time it was quoted at about $15 million,” Cr Butcher said.

“Our satellites are too exposed to lightning strikes and cyclones. “I’d prefer they put a fibre optic system straight into Lockhart River. We either need a direct satellite or a fibre optic (service) in Lockhart River.” Northern Peninsula Area Regional Council’s acting CEO Kate Gallaway said phone and internet outages in her communities can last up to three days. “Because of the federal gov-

ernment decision for remote communities to rely on NBN satellite services … we have no investment for the laying of the fixed fibre you have elsewhere,” Ms Gallaway said. “Unfortunately, during the wet season satellites are notoriously unreliable. “When Telstra does upgrades, if they fail, we lose all of our services across the community. “That’s probably happened four times in the last 12 months.

“The longest outage we’ve had is three days. “If there’s an emergency, people can’t call the ambos without a satellite phone. “Imagine if everyone in Cairns lost their Telstra services for two days. There’d be a riot. “We have to think about the health and safety of our community.” Telstra has committed to delivering a new base station in Seisa and Cooktown.

Services must improve: ombudsman COMPLAINTS reveal Australia’s major telcos must improve their mobile services, the industry’s ombudsman says. Between July 2020 and March 2022, the Telecommunication Industry Ombudsman (TIO) received over 63,000 complaints about mobile services. Among the grievances, mis-selling mobile services, failure to provide key information and poor service Ombudsman Cynthia Gebert said. “We aren’t seeing the same improvements in complaints about mobile services as we are in other service types,” Ms Gebert said.

“This is concerning because when something goes wrong with a mobile service, the impacts can be really disruptive to people’s lives. “The last few years catapulted Australia forward in terms of how we use our mobile phone services, and what we need them to do. “In today’s world, mobile phone services are essential not only for daily life – such as banking, shopping, accessing health and government services, and connecting socially – but also for safety during an emergency like a bushfire or flood.”

The TIO released a report calling on telcos to be clearer with consumers about the quality of service they can expect when they buy a product, provide better customer service, inform customers about upcoming direct debits and contact consumers who miss a payment. “The investigations by my office show there is still work to be done on responsible selling of mobile services,” Ms Gebert said. Customers are urged to research any new mobile service before buying, including checking coverage maps and available payment methods.

Lizard Island has become a playground for the rich and famous and the resort is now part-owned by Twiggy Forrest.

Luxury island property now open By SAMUEL DAVIS

PAMPERED guests at a remote island getaway now have two stunning new luxury accommodation options to choose from at this exclusive Cape York destination. The Estate at Lizard Island Resort overlooks three of the island’s white-sand beaches and turquoise waters. Featuring separate “worldclass” residences, known as The House and The Cottage, the project is the dream of the late John Wilson, who built the first lodge on the island in the 1970s. Dive boat operator Daniel McCarthy, said the The Estate was unlike any other retreat in the world. “It’s truly spectacular and it’s another accommodation option which adds to the already iconic resort,” Mr McCarthy said. “I had a personal tour of it recently and it sets itself apart through its location but also some incredible architecture. “It’s a huge plus because the type of clientele it brings to the area are high-end tourists, so it highlights the region and hopefully will attract more visitors.

“It’s beautiful and private on a freehold block looking out to the northern Great Barrier Reef.” Designed by Queensland architect James Davidson of JDA Co., The Estate aimed to nestle into its surroundings. “As a reflection of its remote, and sometimes harsh environment, the form of the house was a robust outer concrete and copper shell,” Dr Davidson said. “That was designed to blend with the surrounding rock formations and weather over time, balanced nicely by the interior which reflects a softer feeling through the use of timbers and natural stone.” Costing around $16,000 per night for two guests to stay at The House, general manager, Leon Pink, said few experiences could rival a tropical escape to Lizard Island Resort. “Our goal is to give the guests of The House a lifetime ‘bucketlist’ experience in this magical part of the world,” Mr Pink said. Up to eight guests can enjoy an all-inclusive stay on The Estate, with a private host dedicated to curating guests’ experience.

Since then, new challenges, including the pandemic and concerns around coral bleaching, have emerged. But unlike other tropical getaways along the coastline, Lizard Island has weathered the storm. “It’s a little like Hamilton Island in that it’s upmarket, unique and has a degree of exclusivity,” Professor of Tourism at CQ University Dr Bruce Prideaux said. “Lizard Island has an honour roll of incredible past guests. That creates a certain level of prestige which carries over. “But it also requires an extremely high standard of service. “So it’s about taking the natural elements and building up an experience around that.”

CEO ready to tackle rising prices By SAMUEL DAVIS

MEETING the challenge of delivering fresh and affordable produce to Cape York’s Indigenous communities isn’t easy – but Michael Dykes says he’s up to the job. Community Enterprise Queensland’s new CEO will spend his first 100 days visiting the business’ 28 retail stores located in some of the most far flung corners of the state. But one promise the former Coles and Woolworths Group executive has made is that customers won’t be forking out $14 for an iceberg lettuce any time soon. “At the moment, the price of some vegetables just aren’t palatable for the consumer,” Mr Dykes told Cape York Weekly. “So, do we send it out to a location, like Bamaga for example, or are we better off finding a cheaper alternative and offering that instead? We feel we’re better off spending our time finding and providing something like broccoli or cabbage. “Our merchandising team is reviewing prices and makes sure there is a balance we offer the customer.” With surging fuel, labour and commodity prices placing huge pressure on retailers, keeping prices down remained a priority. Stocking goods made by Woolworths has already reduced prices on flour, cheese and other popular items, Mr Dykes said.

CEQ marketing manager Fleur MacMunn with new chief executive officer Michael Dykes.

“We’re starting to see those products in our stores,” he said. “But the upward pressure on prices – from the farmer to the manufacturer – is great and that’s coming through in the cost of the product.

“From our perspective, we maintain a profit margin to stay viable because the worst thing that could happen is the community loses its store. “When you think about the conflict in Ukraine, they’re a huge ex-

porter of fertilisers. Farmers need those for their crops so there’s a huge increase in production costs. “There’s also an increase in labour costs. Manufacturers have had increases on raw materials … add that to the international short-

age of containers and pallets – all of that goes into the cost at the checkout.” After serving as retail general manager for Arnhem Land Progress Aboriginal Corporation (ALPA) for the past five years, Mr Dykes said he understood some of the hidden costs remote businesses can face. “If an ATM breaks down in Cairns, it’ll cost you a couple of thousand dollars to fix,” he said. “That same repair in a remote community can cost you more than $20,000. “I have an appreciation of remote businesses and I think that will hold me in good stead.” Mr Dykes will meet with the not-for-profit’s board in the coming weeks to discuss the potential for the organisation to diversify its business interests. CEQ board member Mislam Sam said the appointment of Mr Dykes followed an extensive recruitment process and reflects the Board’s commitment to strengthen and grow CEQ. “This is a key appointment and we’re thrilled that someone of Mr Dykes’ calibre has stepped into the CEO role,” he said.

Baby Jack in the Townsville Hospital children’s ward.

Pictures: SUPPLIED

It was heartbreaking – how this mum’s instinct saved baby Jack By SAMUEL DAVIS

BABY Jack appeared to be a happy, healthy and even slightly plump newborn – but Weipa mum Liz Weidman just knew that her baby wasn’t well. “I thought I was crazy at first,” the young mum said of her then three-week-old son. “The signs weren’t that dramatic – there was no fever or other symptoms – but nothing was staying down. “It became obvious pretty quickly that something was wrong.” Concerned, Liz and husband Jacob sought a doctor’s opinion. “The worst case scenario is you’re wrong,” she said. “But if you’re right, you’re potentially saving your child’s life.” Mum’s gut instincts were spot on – young Jack was diagnosed with pyloric stenosis, a potentially life-threatening condition where a muscle blocks food from entering the small intestine. “It wasn’t something I’d ever heard of,” Liz said. “We’d only been back home for about a week and he was a very healthy baby to that point. “He was very lucky that he was quite big for his age. “With his condition you can become malnourished and dehydrate very quickly. “You don’t want to think about it but if it went undiagnosed he could’ve died. “If we waited a few more days he would’ve gone hungry and it would’ve been very hard to bounce back.” The Royal Flying Doctor Service’s expert aeromedical team whisked mum and infant more than 1000 kilometres south to Townsville hospital. “Jack had key-hole surgery the next day,” Liz said.

“The surgeon was familiar with the diagnosis and afterward we had a few days in the ward.” “It was definitely distressing. I also had an 18-month old son (Riley) at the time. To be separated as a family was the hardest part.” For Jacob, seeing healthcare professionals treat his young son was an awe-inspiring experience. “The way everybody took care of our little fella – this little Cokecan sized human – how their day revolved around making someone better was unreal,” he said. “The Flying Doctors really were angels in the sky for us.” Jack and Liz returned to Weipa but within a week the tot took yet another turn for the worse.

Page 8 – Cape York Weekly – Tuesday, July 26, 2022

Again, the RFDS were called and Jack returned to Townsville. “Normally one round of surgery rectifies it quite quickly,” Liz said. “But sometimes that muscle just keeps growing. This time they created a longer and larger incision. “They explained to us that it was going to be a bigger surgery this time. That’s obviously more risky. It was heartbreaking.” Thankfully, the surgery was a success and within two weeks Jack had made a full recovery. Three years on, only some small scars on Jack’s abdomen serve as a reminder of his health ordeal. “I think being so little he wasn’t in a lot of pain. Pretty soon, he was back to his normal self and started gaining weight,” Liz said. The Weidmans said they’re deeply grateful to the team of doctors and nurses who came to their son’s rescue. “We are a pretty private family but anything we can do to pump up the Flying Doctors we’ll do,” Jacob said. “They helped save our little fella twice.”

Jack recently got to experience a visit to the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

Public holiday for Laura weekend By MATT NICHOLLS

Cook Shire-based racegoers should be able to take the Friday off before next year’s Laura races and rodeo.

COOK Shire Council will today vote on whether its gazetted show holiday should be shifted to June to support the region’s biggest event. Currently, residents in Cook Shire receive a public holiday for the Cairns Show, which was on July 15 this year. However, following the lead of the Weipa Town Authority, which switched its gazetted show holiday to support the Weipa Fishing Classic, it appears likely that Cook Shire will shift its show holiday to the Friday ahead of the Laura races and rodeo. The Laura weekend is usually held in late June, coinciding with the school holidays. Laura Rodeo Association secretary Debbie Gostelow said she was a supporter of Cook Shire’s move.

“I think it’s a really positive thing and something that all Cook Shire residents should support,” she said on Monday. “A lot of people travel from Cooktown to come to Laura and often they are leaving after work on Friday and driving in the dark to get here. “That’s a problem because of the wildlife on the road and the difficulty in setting up camp in the dark. “Cook Shire covers a big area and even though a lot of people from the Cape will go to the Cairns Show, I think more people are going to Laura.” At today’s Cook Shire Council meeting, the recommendation put to councillors is to request a special holiday nomination for Cook Shire for Friday, June 23, 2023. The vote is expected to pass.

NEWS IN BRIEF Hazard reduction burn COOKTOWN residents should expect to see smoke this weekend as a planned hazard reduction burn is conducted in the district. Operation Paisley will be carried out around Cooktown as a joint effort between the Rural Fire Service, Fire and Rescue and Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service, with support from Cook Shire Council. Hazard reduction burns are an important risk reduction for the fire season. Most of the fire fighters are volunteers and without these rural fire brigades a lot of areas would be vulnerable. More information on planned burns in the Cooktown and Weipa areas can be found in the classifieds section.

Lockhart Elder death CAPE York communities are mourning the death of Lockhart River artist and Elder Elizabeth “Queenie” Giblet. The 83-year-old passed away on July 20 at the Cairns Hospital after a long battle with illness. “Queenie” was considered a legend of the Lockhart River Arts Indigenous Corporation and highly regarded in Cape York art circles.

Jury out on insurance pool MEMBER for Kennedy Bob Katter has applauded the concept of the Northern Australia Reinsurance Pool, but hopes that predicted cost reductions come to fruition. Hard fought legislation providing a government-backed reinsurance pool was passed in parliament prior to the election. Data is still being collated but initial figures predict a 19 per cent on average saving for home insurance in Northern Australia, with a 27 per cent saving in highrisk areas between Townsville and Cairns and a 30 per cent savings in Cairns. However, Mr Katter concedes the battle is still not yet won. “We have achieved brilliant results here, but the fight is far from over. It is vital that insurance premiums in North Queensland are similar to those offered in the rest of Australia,” he said. “While there’s a significant predicted reduction in premiums, there is a risk that we won’t get economic development and investors in Northern Australia until we have premiums that are competitive with those down south.”

COVID wave continues to rise throught the region HEALTH authorities have reported a rise in COVID-19 cases across Cape York in the last 10 days. The Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service has recorded more than 200 active cases with almost 500 confirmed influenza cases within its region. CEO Bev Hamerton said case numbers had risen significantly at Bamaga, Cooktown, Hope Vale and Weipa. “It is clear a new wave is being experienced in the Torres Strait, Cape York and the Northern Peninsula Area, as it is throughout Queensland,” she said. “For both COVID-19 and influenza, vaccination is the easiest and safest way to protect yourself, your loved ones, and the community. “Vaccination can reduce the severity of symptoms and prevent the need for people to be hospitalised.” Boosters were now recommended for eligible recipients, Ms Hamerton said. “A third booster dose is recommended for everyone aged 12 years and older, if it has been at least three months since their second dose, and a fourth booster dose is now recommended for everyone aged 30 years and older,” the CEO said. Adult and child vaccinations

It’s important to remain vigilant about COVID-19, as demonstrated at the recent Hope Vale men’s summit.

for both COVID and influenza are available at all Cape York health facilities. Vaccination bookings can be made through your local hospital, primary healthcare centre or community pharmacy. Walk-ins are also welcome at all facilities and clinics.

“With COVID-19 still prevalent and the virus continuing to mutate, it is important people remain vigilant and responsive by staying home when sick, washing their hands regularly, keeping their distance from others where possible and wearing a face mask when they can’t,” Ms Hamerton said.

Aurukun: Four facing charges

AUTHORITIES have charged four people over an incident in Aurukun which left a female police officer in hospital. It is alleged police had responded to reports of a fight between a man and woman in Kor St, Aurukun, around 2pm on Sunday, July 10. When officers arrived, a man allegedly spat at a 27-year-old female senior constable. The constable and another officer were returning to their vehicle when a rock was allegedly thrown, hitting the female officer on the side of the face. The officer was taken to a medical centre before being flown to Cairns for further treatment. Police said she was later transferred to a Brisbane hospital for further medical treatment. Two men and two women have now been charged with offences including serious assault on police, assault occasioning bodily harm, grievous bodily harm, obstructing police, committing public nuisance, being intoxicated in a public place and wilful damage. All four people are expected to appear in the Aurukun and Cairns Magistrates Courts.

Travelling doc is king of the kids WORKING in an isolated Cape York community, Steve Johnston is doing what every young doctor dreams of – making a difference in people’s lives. In total, the Weipa-based GP Registrar treats patients across 14 remote communities. But the chance to care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children suffering from ear disease has been life-changing. “A lot of kids just track along,” Dr Johnston said. “Some get hearing aids, which is fantastic but others wouldn’t. “They get recurrent middle ear infections and get scarring over the years, the bones in their middle ear stop working well.” Indigenous children have the highest reported rates of middle ear infections and burst eardrums in the world, according to the Menzies School of Health Research. An estimated nine out of 10 young Indigenous children who live in remote communities have some form of ear disease. After the program formally started in December 2020, referrals increased by around 400 per cent in the first three months, Dr Johnston said. “We built the program based on 200 referrals a year and now we’re seeing over 600 new referrals a year,” the rural generalist trainee said. Dr Johnston said primary care physicians do an excellent job of managing ear disease in the community.

“But their workload is huge. And they know if they send referrals to these larger centres the patients aren’t going to make that appointment or they’re just not going to want to leave the community for a variety of reasons,” he said. Dr Johnston is a product of JCU’s undergraduate-to-specialty pipeline for remote, rural and regional Queensland. After gaining his advanced skill in anaesthetics, he sought out ENT Special Interest training with the goal of filling a need he saw as a junior doctor in Weipa. “My first time in Weipa was as a sixth-year medical student at JCU and I absolutely loved it,” he said. “It’s a fantastic place to be. The team who was up here at the time were very dynamic in their own interest and specialty areas, and you had so much to learn from each of them.

“There was a great culture. Everyone got along, everyone was a team. That’s when you realise this is where I want to come back to.” For Dr Johnston, the experience of working and living in Weipa is unbeatable. “I love to be able to go and do a shift in emergency, then the next day I’m doing a remote ENT clinic and then the day after that I’m doing general practice back up in Weipa,” he said. “Then you’re on call after hours, you’re seeing anaesthetics, you’re seeing emergencies, you’re doing retrievals, you’re on the roadside, you’re pulling people back from Mapoon and other remote communities. “It’s just unbelievable. The work you get to do is amazing. Then there’s coming back from that to home, having mates in the community.”

Weipa teenager Bridie Maher continues to go from strength to strength and set a new record in the female 10km at 44.45. Fellow local juniors Lang Haines and Tanna De Tournouer also set records in their respective 5km events. Lang ran his 5km in 23.30, while Tanna fnished in 24.39.

Weipa Running Festival race director Leigh Jewell said it was another amazing event. “We had just over 100 runners participate on the day in the feature events and more in the fun run, too,” he said. “With all of our virtual runners as well, it was another big year for us.” Runners were applauded across the finish line by spectators at Andoom Oval, but not before they were hosed down by the fire brigade as they made their final turn. “We had perfect conditions with a cool morning and bright sunshine, although there was a bit of a smoke haze in the air,” Mr Jewell said. “We’re already looking forward to next year’s event.”

Josh Balodis with his Golden Gloves trophy on the Gold Coast.

Golden Gloves for Weipa boxer By SAMUEL DAVIS

JOSH Balodis may have just claimed a major boxing title but the heavyweight insists beating the demon drink remains his greatest victory yet. The Weipa-based electrician went the distance with southpaw Trent Collett to take out Masters Boxing Australia’s Elite Golden Gloves on the Gold Coast on Friday night. It’s the latest chapter in a boxing journey that started two years ago with the pugilist tipping the scales at more than 150 kilograms. “My right hand is a bit sore from slugging old mate in the jaw,” Balodis said. “It’s not broken, just a bit tender. It was definitely the biggest test I’ve had so far. I didn’t realise he was a ‘lefty’ til the second round and ended up busting his nose.” Since giving up the booze and taking up boxing two years ago, Balodis has lost almost 60kg. “I got the fitness bug and I guess you could say I traded one addiction for a healthier one,” he said.

“The hardest part is the first step. You’ve got to want to give up the grog.” These days Balodis, 38, trains twice-aday, six-days a week. “Typically, my day starts about 3.30am with training and then I get home, go to work and train again afterwards. “I’ve got three kids and one on the way. It’s given me a lot more time for them and my missus. “Every day is good now. I always feel well now.” Having won his last three contests, the fighter is now contemplating competing in the Pan Pacific Masters Games in November. “We’re talking about a possible fight in Port Douglas this October as well but we’ll see,” Balodis said. It’s a remarkable rise for the fighter who lost his first bout against an intimidating opponent. “My first match was against a bloke Patrick Black. He would’ve been 160kg and six-foot-eight,” Balodis said. “He knocked me out in the second round.”

Jawai ready to roll with punches By SAMUEL DAVIS

FRIGHTENINGLY fierce boxing sessions with basketball legend Nate Jawai live vividly in Scott Callaghan’s memory. The Cairns Taipans’ former strength and conditioning coach worked intensely with the Bamaga big man upon his return to Far North Queensland for the 2016-17 NBL season. With cardio sessions a priority, the trainer handed the Cape York star the gloves one day and will never forget it. Thundering right hooks hammered into Callaghan’s pads so forcefully he nearly fell over as the 208-centimetre giant followed through with each bone-rattling blow. “He’s so tall I used to have to stand up on a bench,” Callaghan said laughing. “It was a fair way down if I fell.” The Taipans tall timber were an exciting mix of talented players with Alex Loughton, Mark Worthington, Tevin Jackson and Nnanna Egwu featured on the team’s roster that season. But none matched the brute force Jawai could exert on the court, or in the gym, Callaghan said. “When he first came back to us after he won the championship

NATE JAWAI: THE JOURNEY SO FAR Two-time QBL champion (2004, 2007) NBL Rookie of the Year (2008) NBL All Star Game MVP (2008) Pick 41 in the 2008 NBA draft Serbian League champion (2011) Copa del Rey de Baloncesto winner (2013) NBL champion (2016) *Jawai played with the Cairns Taipans in 2007-08 before returning to the club for the 2016-17 season.

with Perth, we had to find the right balance with him,” he said. “If he lifts too much, he puts on too much muscle. But for a big man he could run and move really well and he looks good doing it. “The running was all about shorter distances at higher speeds. “Taller blokes tend to look a bit funny (when they run) but not him. His mechanics were always really good.” After parting ways with the

Taipans, Jawai is currently auditioning for an NBL gig with the Darwin Salties in the league’s second-tier competition. And while the centre exclusively told Cape York Weekly he is looking at career opportunities beyond basketball, the former NBA draft pick still hasn’t ruled out suiting up for another NBL team next season. “Obviously I’d like to keep the door open,” the proud Torres Strait Islander said. “That was part of the plan when I came here but I haven’t really thought about it too much. “Wherever this (time with Salties) takes me is fine. But I’ll just stay ready and make an impact if I do get a contract (in the NBL).” Beyond his obvious power, Callaghan said having the chance to watch the former Boomer up close revealed subtler aspects to his rimrattling game. “As big as he always was you could just see that he was so smart,” Callaghan said. “He opened the floor up and if he wasn’t going to score he’d set up someone who could. “He always knew where the open man was, which not everyone can do. “When you’ve got a big target like that and play to his strengths, it’s scary.”

Still without a club for the upcoming NBL season, Nate Jawai has plenty in his corner who believe he can make a contribution in his twilight years.

NATE Jawai’s first professional coach has urged an NBL team to sign his former star, declaring his former centre a game changer capable of mentoring young stars across the league. Former Cairns Taipans mentor Alan Black guided Jawai during his breakout 2007-08 rookie season with the club. The championship-winning coach said he quickly realised his young star would have a big impact from the moment he first met him. “It was just so special,” Black said. “The first time I saw him he was doing sprints down the sideline. I thought ‘Oh my goodness’. “The speed and balance he had with his size you watched him in awe. “He had such presence but also really good touch. He had great hands and was a really good passer. “I’d been around a fair time before I came to Cairns and you get a feel for who is really going to make it. “He really wanted to get better and he was a hell of a nice bloke. “He was such a power under the basket. The way he’d move people was amazing.” Jawai went on to claim Rookie of the Year honours that season before becoming the first Indigenous Australian to be drafted into the NBA. Currently out of contract, Black said his former protege would be a valuable addition to any NBL club. “He’s just a spectacular player,” Black said. “He would be great as a mentor and someone training alongside good young players. “I just think having someone his size

Alan Black has high praise for Nate Jawai.

would be worth it. I think there’d be a number of teams interested. As long as everyone’s clear on expectations “Having good people around your club is important and he’s definitely one of them.” At the tail end of a glittering career that’s seen him play all over the world, Black said Jawai’s story was so incredible he may someday end up on the silver screen. “The most amazing story about Nate to me is that he played in Russia,” he said. “Can you imagine a kid from Bamaga going away and playing there? “There couldn’t be anywhere more dramatically different. “It’s remarkable and sets him apart from others that he put himself out there.” “I think the whole thing would make a spectacular movie,” he said. “I’m not sure who you’d get to play him but the story is remarkable.”

Burton wins Masters COOKTOWN golfer Graham Burton has won the elite men’s division of the Queensland Outback Masters after he produced the best combined score across six rounds at six different venues. Golfers started at Roma and then played at Tambo, Barcaldine, Winton and Mount Isa before finishing at Birdsville on the weekend. The 2023 edition will begin at St George, before rounds at Cunnamulla, Quilpie, Richmond, Karumba and Mount Isa. With Mount Isa celebrating its 100th year in 2023, the Outback Masters will feature a $1 million hole in one at the mining city next year.

Cowboys pinch victory THE Wests Tigers are exploring if they have legal grounds to dispute a decision from video referee Ashley Klein that cost them a shock victory over North Queensland. After the Tigers scored two tries in the final five minutes to regain the lead, the Cowboys were awarded a shock penalty on the hooter, allowing Valentine Holmes to kick a goal for a controversial 27-26 win.

Wujal hosts junior footy games for the first time WUJAL Wujal hosted their first junior rugby league home game on Saturday, with community, players and their families packing the oval to cheer on the Yindili players. Wujal Wujal coach Reece Toomey said the day was a great community event. “It was a good day, the kids were all well behaved and everyone was being good sportsmen,” he said. About 200 people enjoyed the day, with food and drink stalls at the oval keeping everyone fed and watered. “All the teams were sharing players if they were short in an age group, and that’s what it is all about really, just having fun and having a go,” Toomey said. “Lucas and Sam from the Cooktown Crocs were the refs for the day and they did brilliantly, so a big shout out to them.”

Cooktown Junior Rugby League Club president Teila Winton said it was another day of great non-competitive football for the Wujal Wujal, Cooktown and Hope Vale juniors. “We had about 60 players from age 8 through to 17, as well as under-7 and 13-17-year-old league tag,” she said. “Our Cooktown players and families had a lovely time visiting the Wujal grounds, and I’d like to thank the Wujal community and Yindili club for a great day – we are looking forward to going back for the next Wujal game.” Cooktown Junior Rugby League Club players will travel to Mossman this Saturday, July 30 to play the Mossman Sharks, while the next local matches will be August 13 in Wujal Wujal and Cooktown on September 3.  More pictures from Wujal Wujal on Page 25.
