WE are soon heading to the voting booths again and this time to elect councilors, which leads to the question: Does the Cassowary Coast want new representatives or are they happy with the current representatives?

We are soon set to have campaigns from different candidates with the purpose of hearing from them as to why we should choose them.

So…, what should we be looking for from our councilors?

Do we want them to be the types of people who have an open-door policy? Or do we want them to be people who feel they should make decisions for us in the community, but never let us contribute effectively to the decision-making process?

I personally want to see a council that advocates for the members of their community. I want to see people who celebrate the achievements of their locals who have fought long and hard for those achievements to occur. Members of a community can spend years of their own time to see things come to fruition in their community, and these are the people who deserve to have their efforts applauded by our current council members.

And then who should be our state representatives…

Let’s Pause for reflection SARI HYYTINEN IN discussion we can often say that change is a good thing.

However, when change occurs, we can be stumped. We then ask ourselves “Why did it happen? We have always done things that way and it worked well.” But sometimes change is necessary because what used to work doesn’t work anymore.

Sadly, this is the nature of the current environment for newspaper owners. There is the need to make changes that counter the changing media marketplace.

John Hughes the owner/editor of the Tully Times became aware of the challenges faced by being an independent newspaper publisher in market where social media is becoming the place to be. Hughes invited Maria Girgenti to write articles in the Tully Times to help combat the challenges of the changing published media environment.

When the Cassowary Coast Independent News (CCIN) came onto the market place the challenge was still there, so based on the example given by Hughes, we decided that a regional independent newspaper was the only way to enter the current market and survive.

-

This has posed its own challenges. Tully people miss the Tully Times and that it was able to focus predominantly on Tully. Stories. Articles people got used to seeing in the Tully Times are sometimes missed by CCIN. A regional paper has more community groups to listen to and allow to be heard. Looking at our region that has lots of small communities I often wonder ‘How can we ensure that everyone is counted, and no one is left out?’

More importantly, how do we bring the communities together to work as one and take advantage of all the strengths we can offer as a region (which happened last weekend at Mission Beach when contributors from every community along the Cassowary Coast contributed to a massive fundraising effort to support two little boys who lost both their parents.)

Here at CCIN we look to the challenges of the current media landscape and we look at ways to overcome them and we intend to succeed, and I know that will happen ultimately because of the help and support of our growing readership because if there’s one thing we are great at in this region, it’s working together and getting things done.

2019 Debutantes Splash High Society Glamour Upon Tully The formalities over, and the debutantes finally let loose.

SEAN DENT THE 2019 Catholic Debutante Ball held at the Multi Purpose Centre in Tully last Saturday was a spectacular success for the 32 young ladies, their partners, their families, and for the outgoing organiser, Maria LaFauci. It was also a huge cottage industry, generating many thousands of dollars for local businesses, including dressmakers, hairdressers, tanning salons, jewellers, make-up artists, nail artists, photographers, gyms, shoe stores, and other businesses.

The evening started off with the precision of a Swiss watch under the experienced hand of LaFauci, in her 27th year as the driving force behind what has become the glamour event of the year for the region, with dresses and suits that wouldn’t be out of place at an Academy Award ceremony. Just after the doors opened at 7:00pm, she announced confidently that everything was on track. “Now, I just have to get 757 people to sit down.”

The challenge was not beyond LaFauci even though the event was much bigger than the previous Ball, when it had a mere 32 tables compared to 41 at the 2019 event. It did take a bit of time and required an announcement that the bar would be closed at 8:10pm, which ultimately did the trick and allowed the formal part of the proceeding to take place by 8:30pm.

The official party members were introduced and made their way to the front. Many dignitaries and a few politicians were among the officials, the most prominent of whom was Father Kerry Crowley, who waited at the top of the hall to greet and acknowledge each debutante.

This was what the young ladies had pre-

pared weeks for, practicing walking tall in their long, tailored gowns and elegant high-heeled shoes with their respective partners on their arms, making sure every protocol was adhered to.

Each pair waited for their introduction before embarking on their long, graceful walk over the 30 metres of red carpet. Anyone witnessing this for the first time would know that this was no simple action. Yes, we all know how to walk, but the grace and gait was clearly something they had practised with their partners – not too fast, not too slow, and whatever else, do not trip! Each walk took between 25 and 30 seconds; each step measured to match the step of their partner.

Upon reaching the top, the male partner released his debutantes arm, who then awaited one of two matrons of honour (Julie Musemici and Karina Wilcox, resplendent in gowns that movie stars would envy) to come and take them to Father Crowley, who spoke a few words of congratulations before allowing them to be escorted to join a line on either side of the hall, where they resumed their place beside their partner for the evening.

If it sounds like nothing special, you have never seen one of these balls. It had all the pageantry and detail of movement of a royal event, and without exception, everyone looked as beautiful as a character out of a Disney movie.

Then came the formal dance part, where we learned they’d spent hours upon hours perfecting their moves in the weeks leading up to the Ball. There were four formal dances, and this was definitely the most intriguing part of the

evening as an observer because it came across as metaphoric of the debutante experience.

In years past, the debs ball was a coming out party, a ritual where parents and friends, got to witness them transforming from girl to young lady before their eyes.

Observing the opening numbers, you could see the young men and women were a little nervous, a tad stiff as they focused on the discipline of the dance moves they’d had instilled in them under the watch of adults making sure they swung their arms and legs in rhythm with their partners’ and in time with the other 62 dancers, which is difficult even for professionals. The second number, they were still a tad self-conscious, likely still very aware that the eyes of 700 people were focused on them, but their movements gradually became more relaxed. Through the third and fourth songs, they were starting to loosen and bounce. It was as if they were telling us all, “Okay, we can take it from here, you can loosen the chains.”

Then the band and the DJ took over for the rest of the night, and the debutantes made their own moves, made their own choices, and their smiles were less forced and very much more animated. The night was now their own, as is the future.

In the background, Maria LaFauci beamed, perhaps witnessing the finest of the 27 Balls under her watch, or maybe relieved that she was releasing the reins, handing them over to Tanya Gilbert, who will have the heady pleasure of putting her own stamp on the 2020 version of the Catholic Debutantes Ball. Everyone says she’s up to it, and we can’t wait to see.

Mike Higgins Returns to Tully, the Town That Saved His Life came home to find someone in his apartment who he didn’t recognised. The man was dismantling an automatic weapon. It wasn’t the first time that someone had a gun in his flat: a man who went by the name Milligan occasionally sold marijuana to his flatmates, and Milligan would dress as a priest and carried a gun under his robes.

This time was different. The stranger had more than weed.

He had a white powder

SEAN DENT IN 1971, Mike Higgins career was riding high at Channel Seven in Brisbane where he starred as one of their most popular news anchors. He shared a house with a few female art college students in their early 20s at the time and life was good. He was also involved in the anti-Vietnam War movement and sometimes a bit too busy to notice what was going on at home.

Then one day, he

that was either heroin or cocaine. The situation developed and Higgins was being asked to do deliveries between Brisbane and Sydney. He was told he did not need to know what was going to be in the suitcase, just to deliver it. One thing Higgins was certain of, it was not just marijuana. For a monthly delivery, he was going to be paid handsomely: a unit on the Gold Coast and a Ferrari.

On the other hand,

THE St. Clare's Catholic women hosted the southern deanery meeting on Wednesday June 26. We welcomed ladies from the northern parishes up to Cairns, including the Tablelands.

Mass was celebrated by Fathers Kerry Crowley and Hilary Flynn, supported

by John O'Connor. We then all met at the hotel Tully (all 75 of us) to enjoy a delicious buffet lunch.

anyone would do: he grew a beard and headed for the rain forest.

He landed in Tully and also spent time in Mission Beach, managing to live in the region anonymously for several months until the Sun published a story on its front page announcing they’d found him.

Mike Higgins was back in Tully this week to publicise his new memoir, Trouserless Under the News Desk, a book that has received praise by many,

including former Australian Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd.

The book is about his early years as a news anchor and award-winning documentarian and gets into the seedier side of the news business, but it also delves deeply into Higgins recent struggle with cancer: specifically, cutaneous T-Cell lymphoma, a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma which primarily affects the skin causing patches, plaques,

tumours and lesions.

He was given a 16% chance of survival a few years ago and told by his doctor that only a very few people in the world have survived this form of cancer. Now fully recovered, Higgins sees this book as a manual of hope and inspiration.

The book will be on sale at Books & Workshops on Butler, and Leah is already taking orders.

if Higgins refused to deliver the product, Milligan said he’d shoot him.

He appeared on Channel Seven News that night, but then he completely disappeared without telling anyone where he was going. When he didn’t appear behind the news desk the next night, it caused a national storm and the police considered him a missing person. Australia was intrigued and looking for him.

COMMUNITY NEWS NOTICE OF COUNCIL MEETING DATES

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thank You Maria We would like to acknowledge the community service given by Maria LaFauci and her willing band of helpers over the past 30 years for the Catholic Debutante Ball.

Maria has been successful in bringing the Debs, their partners plus parents and a whole lot of helpers for rehearsals many weeks ahead, planning, seating and overseeing the big night to make the ball the success it always is.

We know firsthand from the years we spent doing our bit teaching the debs to dance.

She has given freely of her time to do this and because of her effort this great tradition has not only continued but grown in numbers when many others have declined.

I believe Maria LaFauci should be nominated for an Australia Day community award for her commitment to this local event that also helps our local economy with the flow of money through sales of clothing, hairdressing and photos to name only a few of the costs in being part of this event.

So, well done Maria and your helpers for paving the way

NOTICE is hereby given that the Cassowary Coast Regional Council has scheduled the following meeting dates for the period July to November 2019:

for the next team, and on that note, we would also like to congratulate Tanya Gilbert and wish her every success for next year’s ball.

Tully Library Gets a Facelift LAST week, Tully Library got a facelift in the form of eight new ergonomically-designed computer chairs, two new computer tables that replace smaller, ill-fitting ones, and two beautiful three-seater setees/lounge suites where you can set yourself down for an hour or two of reading.

Also, following a flood in the public toilet earlier in the year, they have new carpet all through the old part of the library and new archival-quality flooring in the local history room.

Having done a bit of research among residents, most people will not even notice the difference because most people don’t visit the library that often unless they have kids.

The Cassowary Coast Regional Council diverts a lot of its funds toward the libraries in the region, and in many small towns, the library can be a hub of the community and a money-saver. Tully Librarian Assistant, Maxine Marsh, told CCIN that a lot of people pay money to rent or buy movies without knowing that the library has more than 3,000

DVDs available at the library for free. “If there is a movie they don’t see available and they would like, we can order it for them.” This also goes for books, although in some circumstances there’s a small charge of $3.00 if the item has to be ordered.

It doesn’t stop there. Many people buy e-books from Amazon when they could borrow them from the library, again free of charge and from the comfort of their own living rooms. “And if they don’t have time to read, maybe they could download audiobooks,” said Marsh,

also free of charge.

Perhaps you’re not a book reader. Maybe you’d like to get your hands on a magazine instead. E-magazines are also available. A lot of people might find this useful if there’s a magazine not available in the local newsagent, or maybe there is a single article they’d like to read and don’t want to buy an entire magazine.

E-books, audiobooks, and full-colour, full-edition e-magazines are available 24/7 on your computer, tablet, or mobile device through any of three different services: BorrowBox, Over-

Drive, or RB Digital.

Depending on which service you use, there may not even be any limitations. In other words, you can borrow as many items as you like and there are no return dates. You simply delete the title when you’re finished with it.

The library offers other online services too, such as small, friendly group training sessions called Tech Savvy, where you can learn new skills to help you get connected and maybe even learn to follow your younger family members in their social media accounts. They cover

THIS year's 105th annual Innisfail & District Show is set to be bigger, better and promises to have something for everyone with the ever-popular sideshow alley, as well as a number of new entertainment acts.

Dream State Circus ‘Of The Flame’ duo will have a performance at 8:00pm on both nights in front of the grandstand and will also run circus workshops.

The show, which is suitable for all ages and guaranteed to leave the audience mesmerised, features an amalgamation of dance and fire, acrobatics and music, and has won many international awards.

The invitational Horse versus Bike Barrel Race challenge, now in its second year, kicks off in centre ring right in front of the grandstand on Thursday at 7:00pm.

A horse can give the bike a run for its money, with the rider being able to command a horse to change direction and turn much easier and quicker than the relatively complicated procedure of turning a bike.

However, the bike has the definite advantage on the straights in between the barrels, because of their torque and ability to quickly reach a higher top speed.

Both horse and bike riders

were carefully chosen because of their experience contesting similar events in the northern region and will challenge each other side by side to see who comes out on top.

Chainsaw artist, Matty George from Gold Coast, who was a huge hit last year, returns, and his demonstrations are sure to captivate audiences as he sculpts recycled logs into amazing creations.

Entries are still being accepted in most categories including horticulture, domestic (culinary), arts, photography, woodwork, bananas, paw paws, sugar cane, poultry, cattle, horse and ring events.

Schedules are available at Larsen's Newsagent, Jill's Stationery, Innisfail Stockfeed & Vet Lines, Mourilyan Newsagency and Picnics Country Crafts or www.innisfailshow. com.au.

Coral Sea Pirates will provide new roving entertainment and youngsters will be well catered for with Doyles Family Fun Show, Kids Corner with face painting, arts and crafts, as well as Danny the Clown with his magic show.

Youngsters will also love the RESTA reptile show with snakes, lizards as well as being able to cuddle and pat chickens, pigs, sheep, ducks, cows, horses and goats at Carters Animal

AROUND THE SCHOOLS

Sci-Fi July Story Time at Tully Library CLARE WATSON

Mrs Saunders with Year 11 accelerated Mathematics students Madison Lyons and Rhyka Wickcliffe-Adams

Year 11 accelerated Mathematics students Danika Stacey, Casey Cook and Paige De Brincat engaged in a modelling and problem-solving task

Innisfail State College Year 11 students first to experience new Queensland education system MARIA GIRGENTI INNISFAIL State College’s Year 11 cohort will be among the first group of Queensland students to experience the massive change taking place in the senior schooling curriculum.

There is an increased focus on students becoming lifelong learners and developing 21st century skills to enable them to become valued employees, innovators and positive, educated members of society.

The College has 154 year 11 students who are currently engaged in the new Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) system which is a combination of internal school-based assessment and external examinations. The outcome is for students to gain a QCE and possibly an Australian Tertiary Admissions Ranking (ATAR) - used for university entry.

Innisfail State College is confident its staff and students are prepared for the new sys-

tem of schooling. Over the last two years many hours have been dedicated to professional development and planning to ensure the students are given every opportunity to succeed in their chosen path of senior education, whether it leads to university, alternate courses of study or employment.

They have exposed the students to new types of assessment and provided them with a number of information sessions to address all of their concerns and queries.

A sci-fi July themed ‘story time’ at the Tully library entertained children who are on holiday from school, last Tuesday July 2.

Read to me day is a highlight of the year for primary school students, however it is not the only time when children are entertained with literature, as the big event is echoed every Tuesday by ‘story time’ days at the Tully library.

Last Tuesday at 10:30am Maxine Marsh, the Branch Administrator at the Tully library read two exciting books to the holidaying youngsters, before they all made paper spaceships and other sci-fi crafts with art and craft goodies supplied by the library. The first book that was read to the children was ‘Don’t Wake the Yeti” by Claire Freedman. It was a beautiful story explaining what to do when you find a Yeti under your bed, including steps to identify the yeti, befriend the yeti, take the yeti to school, look after it, and disguise it as furniture so your mum doesn’t send it away!

The other book was called “Many Moons” and was written by Remi Courgeon. It used beautiful illustrations of what the moon looks like during its phases, comparing it to cheese, grins, and cat’s tails, whilst educating the eager listeners on the cycles of the moon.

‘Story time’ library sessions are just one of many exciting events happening these school holidays. Organised especially for the holidays, there will be a craft event for children aged from five up called ‘Clucking Chickens’, where children will be making clucky chickens at 10:30am on Friday July 5. Following up the next week on Wednesday July 10 will be a ‘Recycled Art and Craft’ session, with more exciting arts and crafts projects. ‘Legorama’ is another favourite event that happens every Wednesday, where the children use their limitless creativity to make things out of lego pieces. Each event has a theme to stick to, and the beautiful creations are put on display at the library. If you would like to attend either the ‘Clucking Chickens’ or ‘Recycled Art

and Craft’ events, you will need to contact the library and book a spot.

Not letting the young kids have all the fun, the older generation scrabble ladies were out in force in the Tully library on Tuesday with their weekly scrabble competition! It was started by Linda Vecchio and goes strong using a whole corner of the library and two tables.

The Tully Support Centre has a big two weeks for the holidays with their Tully Youth Centre program at the igloo in the Tully showgrounds. Tuesday July 2 was a round of touch footy, followed on Wednesday by the weekly pool competition. Thursday will be a board games day.

Coming up next week is art on Tuesday July 9, and a Movie afternoon on Thursday July 11.

Christian Murphy, the Tully Youth Centre Coordinator said, “It is a space for them to be kids, to be young people.” The Tully Youth Centre is often fundraising to keep the events happening, and you can donate by contacting them directly.

Amaarah, Rylee, and Yunus, all busy making crafty spaceships!

More than 27 Innisfail Brothers junior rugby league players represented the newly formed North Queensland Country team.

North Queensland Country, a combination of Innisfail/Eacham and Outback - Cape/Torres and Mount Isa played for the first time against teams from Mackay, Townsville, Cairns and Northern Territory.

All teams performed strongly, considering they were put together from Cape/Torres, Mount Isa, Innisfail and Eacham and had only one and a half days training together.

Troy Cooper and Lisa Sue San have been coaching Cyclones Under-17 girls team, who recently

finished their season in Cairns as runners up to Tully have been strong performers and are expected to do well against the southern teams.

Under-13 players Xapheniah Tanner, Tureti Ryder, William Roos, Lebron Heron-Jia and Jayden Wahlin were selected to take part in a QRL Northern Division development camp at James Cook University from June 30 to July 2.

Braithen Ketchell (Under 14) was also selected for the camp but was unable to take part after dislocating and fracturing his kneecap at training.

This is the third time the Division has run such a camp which will assist players to find a pathway into Under-14, Under-15

and Under 16 teams at the State Junior Championships in 2020.

The development camp is aimed at improving player talent and skills and concluded with a game played at Brothers Leagues Club, followed by lunch.

Numbers in Innisfail's junior ranks are thriving with over 230 registered players from Under-6 to Under-16 and a wealth of talent over all age groups.

At training, boys coaches Troy Cooper and William Cunningham have been focusing on nurturing on-field footy talent and skills with also a strong emphasis on personal development to produce respectable citizens in the local community.

RURAL REPORT

Tully Sugar Industry – Planting Time THIS time last year in this column we spoke about planting time. With the weather still a bit wet, not so much planting has happened in the district yet this year, but in some areas there is ground preparation taking place and A healthy cane billet split open to see there is no pineapple disease. some planting has occurred.

Sugarcane is planted as billets or “setts”, small pieces of cane usually about 150-200mm long that have one or two “eyes”. These eyes germinate when in contact with the soil and reproduce the new shoot which emerges through to the soil surface. A root system also develops from the billet.

This whole process depends on many factors, ranging from the depth the cane is planted, the varie-

ty, the moisture levels and temperature of the soil. Soil temperature needs to be more than 17 degrees Celsius for the eyes to germinate.

If the soil is too cold, the billet needs to stay intact until it warms up.

When I first came to this district I was told that the bulk of planting occurs after show weekend.

Soil temrparuire would have a bit too do with that as the soil temperatures should start warming up after the show.

Generally speaking we say a billet has 30 days for the eyes to germinate and the new shoot to emerge through the soil. If germination is slow because it is too cold or persistent

drizzly rain occurs, a disease can occur in the billet called Pineapple disease.

This disease is caused by a fungus known as Ceratocystis paradoxa and it causes the eyes to die off, so even if the billet starts to grow a new root system, if the eyes die out, noting happens. This results in gaps in the young plant cane which is no good for future ratoons. The disease is called pineapple disease because when we dig up an infected billet and split it open it smells like rotten pineapple.

To prevent pineapple disease, we use fungicides at planting which are sprayed onto the ends of the billets as it moves through the planter. The

fungicides effectively dry out the end of billets which prevents the fungus having any effect. These fungicides are used at low rates and over the years a lot of research has gone into developing new and better ones, including a series of trials in El Arish between 2016-2018 where we tested three different fungicides. Why does it matter if pineapple disease strikes? There is an old saying, a good plant cane crop is like the foundation of a house, if it is solid, and so is the house. A well established plant crop is the foundation of the next 4 or 5 years of ratoon crops.

Yet Another Boil Water Alert SEAN DENT

As of June 29, the Cassowary Coast Regional Council has implemented another boil water alert for residents in Tully town, Feluga, East Feluga, Bulgun, Silky Oak, Euramo, Merryburn, South Mission Beach, Wongaling Beach, Carmoo, Hull Heads, Tully Heads, Jarra Creek area (Syndicate Road and Mullins Road), all of whom are advised to boil drinking water until further notice for the usual activities: drinking, brushing teeth, washing or preparing food that is not going to be cooked, preparing baby formula, & making ice.

As usual, the Cassowary Coast Regional Council apologises for

period where it rained for all but two days, for a total of more than 1000mm.

There was no boil water alert in that period.

Now, we get a paltry 13mm after nine consecutive dry days, and there's a new boil water alert. It’s clearly not simply a matter of heavy rainfall. One resident theorised that a long dry spell followed by a modest amount of rain can cause disturbances that raise the turbidity.

That sounds logical.

Many residents’ Facebook comments are aimed at the Council, some more pointed than others. One, for example from James Cameron: “Imagine if the council spent our money on this issue rather than the CEO's own personal issue,” a reference to a

the inconvenience and will provide updates as they become available.

However, residents are becoming impatient and demanding better answers and a long-term response to the situation. Some are even questioning the legitimacy of the alert. One resident, for example, commenting, “It’s funny we never saw this for the whole duration of the world rafting event (May 13-20), geez it was wet that couple of weeks.”

It’s a fair point. The last boil water alert was lifted April 10, five weeks before the rafting championships started. And it rained a lot around April 10 according to the rain tables published by Tully Sugar. In fact, we were in the middle of a 48-day

Innisfail Leprechauns a Grade Players 'Go Pink' to Tackle Breast Cancer MARIA GIRGENTI INNISFAIL Leprechauns are hosting a Pink Footy Day this Saturday, July 6 to raise funds for breast cancer where A-grade players will be kitted out in special one-off pink jerseys, shorts and socks for their local derby home game clash against Tully Tigers.

Although Tully are still searching for their first win of the season, both sides are expecting fierce rivalry and a tough assignment as their last encounter ended in a gritty 16 all draw.

After the A-grade game, an auction of all 17 game worn player jerseys will be held at Brothers

Leagues Club, where 100% of all net proceeds raised being donated to Innisfail Breast Cancer Support Group.

At the auction, it is expected there will be fierce bidding on a number of highly-sought-after jerseys with players also wanting to keep their own jerseys.

IBCSG keeps funds locally to assist ladies in the Cassowary Coast region who have been diagnosed with breast cancer by offering support services such as specialised bra fitting days and supplying magazines and paper to the chemotherapy rooms at Innisfail Hospital.

Coordinator of IBCSG Zoe

Dunne said the group's vision is to provide ongoing support local ladies, as well as to promote breast cancer awareness in the community.

Innisfail Leprechauns contacted Mrs Dunne and said they were keen to come on board and support the worthy cause as a number of people in the rugby league family have been affected by breast cancer, as well as family and friends.

On the day, IBCSG will have merchandise for sale including pink footy socks and a raffle with all proceeds going back to the group so they can continue to provide vital support services.

The group especially wished to thank jersey and shorts sponsors: Chemist Warehouse, Ron & Dan's Butchery, Back In Motion Chiropractic, Ray's Barber Shop, Austo's Machining and Adbri Masonry for their generous support.

This is not the first time Innisfail Leprechauns have thrown their support behind breast cancer, having previously hosted a Pink Sports Day in 2017 where players wore pink socks and a Pink Jersey fundraiser auction in 2008, which raised thousands of dollars for National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Juniors Getting Tri-Active SARI HYYTINEN THE second Mini Tri Series for junior athletes (between the ages of eight to sixteen years) brought action to the Mission Beach Aquatic Centre last Sunday morning. The Mission Beach Aquatic Centre actively supported the Cassowary Coast Multi-Sport Club (CCMC) by opening earlier than normal to provide a facility for the event

and ensuring there was good food and good coffee available.

The event has come together due to the strong community focus of the local Mission Beach community. The CCMC is run by volunteers who offer their own time to ensure that there are positive activities available to up and comers. Last Sunday, between 12 and 15 CCMC members volunteered their time throughout the event to ensure

that it happened.

“We are a volunteer club, so everything, all the organisation and the prep and all the documents, everything is done in volunteer time. Because we are in an amazing community, we always have the parents turn up and say, how can I help? what can I do?” said Richard Blanchette, President of the Cassowary Coast Multi-Sport club.

To produce an event like the

Mini Tri Series requires people who have a vision and who are willing to put in the effort in to outwork that vision. Rod Harris and the crew at Cassowary Coast physiotherapy, and Jeff Coward a current member (the former president) of CCMC were dedicated to the cause from the very beginning.

He felt the most amazing thing about the day started with the spectacular conditions.

“Beautiful sunny day and coolish. The swim was in warm water this morning. That's always a nice ice breaker when the water is warm. The real winner with these triathlons is always having juniors, the next generation of runners and riders and swimmers anticipating and enjoying themselves,” said Richard.

The juniors who were involved were the children of ac-

tive parents who are now supporting their children to become active people. For community members who would like their children to be involved, the CCMC has a Facebook page and website ccmclub.org.au, and you can find all the necessary contacts on there or ask at the Mission Beach Aquatic Centre.

SPORT another case of so close but no chocolates for our A-grade players, as we went down yet again by 6 points. With an already embarrassing riches of losing close games to our name, the stench of the Ivanhoes’ supporters let Tully know we were on the bottom of the ladder for at least another week at fulltime was hard to take. Tigers half Benny Campo was pretty much to the point about the game: “Too many errors. Have to be better this weekend, which I am sure we will be ready for as this David and Goliath match always delivers.” Going back over the season, Saturday night’s scoreboard represented our fifth game we have lost by 6, the four by 2, a draw and one hiding at the hands of the Roosters. It’s hard to put a finger on what we have been lacking, but I will let every Tigers supporters know, come Innisfail this weekend, we will give it

everything we got against our old foes. Leps coach Leon Hallie will be wary, so hopefully many fans make the trek north to cheer our team onto an unlikely victory. Full marks to the Ivanhoes supporters that were yelling abuse at the Tigers players during the A-grade game, as it clearly showed nothing has changed between us and them.

Over the years a healthy rivalry has existed between Tully and Ivanhoes, and last week’s hooligan like abuse from the red and white army was all we needed reminding us of our intentions of adding maybe a wooden kitchen utensil post 2019.

So, with the teams announced for the Decider for the 2019 State of Origin series, let’s go over what has already transpired in this year’s edition. We looked like a team on a mission in game 1 that could finally stop talking about JT, Smith n Slater and maybe write our own origin story. DCEs return felt like he belonged and Dane Gagai was my new favourite player. Then all of a sudden, by fulltime of game 2, we were again sending an SOS out to Smith and Cronk

to maybe give us a hand one more time. After settling down since my last column about Origin 2, I think we may have a fighting chance to win the Decider, and here’s why. It looks like Kaylin Ponga will be out, but moving Cameron Munster back there will add a bit more, I reckon. In other words, I don’t think we will lose too much strike out the back in the number one jersey. Furthermore, the selection of Corey Norman to make his debut in maroon has been a long time coming. I feel he deserves this; whether he’s up for it is another matter. I mean, you can’t get any bigger than debuting in the halves in a State Of Origin Decider in Sydney. Cometh the hour, cometh the man I say. NSW, well, those arrogant good for nothing pack of wannabes will turn up and think it’s already in the bag, which is fine with us. We have to stop Tommy Turbo and Teddy Tedesco if we are a chance. but that’s easier said than done.

If we control the middle like game 1, then maybe we can bring the shield home. So bring it on I say.

A big congratulations to some outstanding junior rugby league players on the weekend when the Kenny Hamill Cup and the Gorden Tallis Cup were on show featuring our little legends. Tully took a team of champions to Townsville coached by none other than Hall of Famer Jono Taylor. The boys won many games and were unlucky to finish a game short of taking out the entire competition. One thing I must say about the great Jono Taylor is he’s a great bloke and the kids absolutely love him. Keep up the great work.

The game that stopped the nation on the weekend was the Kenny Hamill Cup which saw Tully State School fall short of a victory against the much fancied Tully District. The likes of Daniel jack and Shakobe Grant were TSS’s best, but the speed men of Tama Wilson, Nick Muriata and great mate Mitch D were too Sonic-the-Hedgehoglike for our boys. It was a great afternoon, and the presentation from the legend himself, Ken Hamill, was the highlight for many students. The referee who officiated the match was a great

young gun who will be doing some big matches in the not too distant future. A few names that need to be thanked for the weekend’s effort are legends in our community as well. The likes of Caroline Chadwick, Jonnie Hughes, Kate Stevens, Grant Blenner, Mickey G, Jimmy Davis, Anthony Emmi and Jono Taylor made sure the footy for our younger heroes was a weekend they would never forget.

Anytime the Aussies beat the Kiwis in any sport, I will never pass up the opportunity to let my kiwi mates who reside in Tully know who won.

Just in case you missed it, our Aussies Cricketers smashed the Black Caps in a one-sided affair. Apart from the Bolt hat trick, our Trans Tasman cousins had nothing really to talk about except how Starc smashed their middle stumps. Hopefully the Aussies can go deeper into the World Cup and win another world trophy to stamp our place as the number one sporting country in the world.

The competition finals consist of 21 ends and on the final end both teams were locked at 20 apiece.

In a nail-biter, last end, Kriesel had a bowl on the jack so Pointon opted not to play her last bowl which saw the pair claim a narrow one-point victory.

The two days produced perfect cool bowling weather and all ladies enjoyed the warm hospitality of Yungaburra Bowls Club.

Two social games were held in Innisfail last Wednesday where Lyn Stevenson, Ann Rule and Marcia Ryall 27 defeated Eileen Hamann, Helen Paterson and Nellie Marsh 15.

Bev Anderson, Diana O’Brien and Ann Windsor 27 defeated Esther Manly, Pam Anderson and Joan Atkinson 11.

He is now through to the finals to defend his title from last year. Others keenly contested their Match

Tigers News with Shane Muriata SATURDAY night saw the Tully Tigers host the Ivanhoes Knights of Cairns at the Showground in what was a seesawing event of games. First off the program was our shining light that is Steven Barrett, who was literally shining as his boys overcame a spirited Hoes outfit by toppling them 26-6.

The black and gold boys all had good ball control, but it was the simple message at half time that brought the bacon home. “I just asked to apply more pressure. If we could do that, then we were sailing home. It’s hard playing against a team that has only won one game, but they certainly didn’t show it.” Now the next assignment will be against an in-form Leps side who will be trying to push past our Reggies for a top 3 spot. Make sure you get to Innisfail early on Saturday to cheer our boys on. It was Silkwood Bowls

THE prevailing windy conditions out past the islands has continued over the last week with most people staying inside the islands. The few who have been prepared to take the effort and ride the bumps to the reef have reported good catches of Coral Trout. Also there have been quite a few Spanish Mackerel caught on floating live baits or pilchards. There have been good numbers of Spanish Mackerel around the islands taken on trolled lures and also slow trolling Wolf Herring. This method is particularly successful on the larger Spanish; they can’t resist the large baits. Call in to Tackle World Tully for your supplies of both the baits and rigs for the chance at a trophy

Spanish Mackerel. There have been reports of a few Spotted and School Mackerel inshore and although the big schools haven’t arrived, there are enough around to pick up a tasty feed. Drifting with pilchards is a very successful method, and quite often early in the season, the fish will be down deep almost on the bottom so vary your fishing depths until you find the fish.

The estuary fishing is quite good at the moment with Whiting and Bream around in good numbers and also some good Grunter. Freshly pumped yabbies or good quality frozen prawn are the preferred baits for these fish. The Hinchinbrook Channel has been fishing quite well also with reports of Jewfish up to a metre being caught on jigged vibes like the popular Jackson Pan Vibes. They have been mainly caught in deep holes where you would also expect to catch Fingermark. Fresh or good quality frozen squid is the preferred bait for

these fish or fresh live bait if you can get them.

There are still some reasonable Barramundi and Mangrove Jacks being caught in the local rivers and the Channel with soft plastics like the Atomic Prong doing well.

Freshwater fishing in the local area has been quite good, and with the school holidays on now, we can expect to get reports off our many keen school age anglers, who will be walking the smaller creeks chasing the elusive Jungle Perch.

Looking ahead the wind is meant to be easing during the week and possibly only a bit over 10 knots on the weekend which may allow larger boats to venture to the main reef.

Predictions can change though, so keep an eye on the forecast and maybe plan for the islands or estuary if the conditions allow. The afternoon low tides this week are very low so timing the boat retrieval and crossing shallow river mouths is also something to keep in mind when planning your trip.

Quinton Smith lands a leg blow to his opponent David Borg during his first ever caged Muay Thai fight in Gladstone

Local Fighter Quinton Smith Creates History and Wins First XFC Caged Muay Thai Title Fight in Gladstone

STORY MARIA GIRGENTI

QUINTON Smith has created history after he was crowned the first ever Amateur Muay Thai Featherweight Champion at XFC Fight Night in Gladstone and added an eighth title belt to his collection stepping up and defeating his 19-year-old opponent, David Borg by unanimous decision.

Smith, aged 15, made weight for the bout and his opponent Borg who was four years older towered over him in height and had the advantage of a much longer reach.

Both fighters were lined up and introduced in front of a 1,000 strong crowd and the co-main event produced an incredibly action-packed Muay Thai bout.

fight was Steve Robson from WKBF in Brisbane who had previously seen Smith fight at the Battle by the Bay in Cleveland where he won his first WBC title.

With a championship belt on the line, both fighters threw heavy combinations with neither backing down.

Both fighters sized each other in the first 30 seconds of the first round before Smith started landing some heavy leg kicks and combinations.

In round two, both boys came out firing when Smith copped a spinning elbow in the first 30 seconds which didn’t faze him, and he walked through it, then kept walking forward and landing very heavy kicks and hands to Borg.

The third round saw both fighters give their all, but Smith was all over the top of Borg with leg kicks and combos resulting in him trying to hide his sore lead leg which he couldn’t stand on, but much to his credit Borg kept soldiering on.

Smith continued to rain heavy blows on Borg in the fourth round and had him on the back foot by moving forward and landing combos straight down the pipeline which he finished off with a huge straight elbow through the middle which stunned his opponent.

The fifth and final round saw Smith and Borg throwing everything at each other, but Borg had no answer for Smith’s lethal combinations and the

power of his punches and kicks.

Smith kept landing heavy kicks to his opponent and by the third round Borg was trying to hide his lead leg which was now sore with massive red welts after receiving constant heavy blows.

During the fight Smith looked to land harder combinations with more frequency and in pretty much every round caught Borg’s kicks and dumped him on the canvas.

Smith was also awarded Fight of the Night as determined by XFC officials.

His latest win also saw Smith presented with a XFC championship ring and medal and his current record of 28 fights, 23 wins and five losses now

sees him ranked one of the best junior Muay Thai fighters in Australia having been undefeated for three years.

Smith will have a brief well-earned break but will still continue training and will soon start running junior Muay Thai classes at Fusion Fight and Fitness Innisfail.

On September 6, Smith will defend his latest UFC title in Gladstone with his opponent still to be decided.

Smith wished to thank his opponent for the five-round war, as well as all his gym mates at Fusion Fight and Fitness Innisfail that trained and helped make him fight, especially Grattan Willey, Mayocchi Brothers and Jonathan Kuhn, as well as the loyal support of his sponsors.
