UK Schmidt Telescope turns 50 Siding Spring Observatory’s UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST) turns 50-years-old today, marking half a century of stellar observations.

by JIMMY WHALAN P o p u l a r a s t r o n o m e r, Professor Fred Watson, who has been closely involved with operations of the UKST over the years, gave a brief histor y of the milestones and achievements of the facility over its 50 years of operation.

Prof Watson said that, in 1970, the British government had decided to go ahead with the construction of a wide-field photographic su r vey tel escope that wou l d com p l ement the l a rg e r A n g l o - Aus t ra l i a n Te l e s c o p e ( A AT ), t h e n under constr uction at Siding Spring Observatory.

“A t t h a t t i m e , t h e southern sky was largely unexplored by large

modern telescopes, and existing sky atlases didn’t show the faint stars and g a l a x i es that wou l d be within reach of the new facilities,” he said.

On 17 August 1973, the 1.2m UK Schmidt Telescope was opened at Siding Spr ing, enter ing ser vice just a few weeks later.

Prof. Wat so n sa i d the telescope’s first task was to photograph the entirety of the southern sky, which had not been covered by its near twin on Palomar Mountain, USA, during the 1950s.

Prof Watson said many reputations we re made during the early period, when astronomers at the UKST and their counterparts at the AAT scouted for the most interesting objects

in the souther n sk y and followed them up with the larger telescope.

Originally an outstation of the Royal Observatory, Ed i n b u rg h, Prof Wat so n said the relationship b et we e n t h e U K S T a n d A AT w a s f o r m a l i s e d i n June 1988, when the UKST became part of the AngloAu s t ra l i a n O b s e r vato r y (AAO).

Dur ing its 5 0 years, P rof Wat s o n s a i d t h e UKST sought to advance an important new astronomical technique using fibre optics.

“While not invented at the AAO, [the technique] was transformed from an interesting novelty into a powerful tool at both the AAT and the UKST during t h e e a r l y 19 8 0 s ,” P r o f

Watson said.

“By 2001, the UK Schmidt Telescope had completed its various photographic surveys and took on a new role as a spectroscopic s u r vey te l e s co p e u s i n g a robotic f ib re - optics i n s t r u m e nt ca l l ed ‘6 d F’ or ‘six-degree field’ – the width of sky imaged by the telescope.

This 6dF Galaxy Survey (6 d F G S) m a r ke d t h e UKST’s first major project measuring the distances of 150,000 galaxies.

After completing t h e 6 d F G S i n 2 0 0 5, t h e U K S T w e n t o n to c a r r y out a multi-national p ro j e ct, m e a s u r i n g t h e velocities, sizes, ages, and te m p e ra t u re s of h a l f a million stars.

“Known as ‘RAVE’, the

RAdial Velocity Experiment pioneered a new mode of operation for the U K S T, i n w h i c h f u n d i n g was provided by external contributions rather than t h e A AO,” P rof Wa t s o n said.

“RAVE was completed in 2013 and, since then, the UKST has effectively been a test bed for new fibre optic technologies that will be used on much larger telescopes overseas.”

The gover nance of the telescope changed i n 2 01 0 , w h e n t h e b i national Anglo-Australian Observatory became the Austral ian A stronomical Observatory.

This saw ownership of the telescope change to th e Aus t ra l i a n N at i o n a l University (ANU), which has

operated both the UKST and AAT since 2018.

Professor Chris Lidman, current director of Siding S p r i n g O b s e r v a t o r y, commented on the 50th annive r sa r y of the UKST and said that it should look back on the last 50 years with pride.

“It started off with the creation of a photographic atlas covering the entire southern sk y, and evolved into a facility that measured the properties of hundreds of thousands of stars and galaxies using te c h n o l o g y d eve l o p e d here in Australia,” he said.

“As technology evolves and new scientific questions are asked, we can be optimistic that it will be used for another 50 years.”

Memories on the mountain The 50th anniversary of the UK Schmidt Telescope brings back many happy memories for Professor Fred Watson, both of the telescope and of the Coonabarabran community.

by JIMMY WHALAN In 1982, Prof. Watson began a threeyear secondment to Coonabarabran from the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh, which was then the operator of the UK Schmidt.

Although no longer working at Siding Spring, Prof. Watson has made Australia his home and now works as the Australian Government’s ‘Astronomer-at-Large’, a role that takes him across the country.

“This job is about giving expert advice to our gover nment and international bodies like the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space at their meetings in Vienna,” Prof Watson said.

“It also lets me continue with science outreach activities everywhere

from school classrooms to the ABC. “Both aspects are close to my heart, and hopefully contribute to the future and wellbeing of Australian astronomy.”

Prof. Watson said there were many highlights during his time at Siding Spring Observatory, some of these including the observatory’s survival of the 2013 Wambelong bushfire, the designation of the Warrumbungle National Park as Australia’s first-ever ‘Dark Sky Park’, and many inspiring conversations with Coonabarabran’s Gamilaraay Elders.

“It’s hard to overestimate how much I gained and learned from that time,” Prof. Watson said.

He said the ups and downs of the UK Schmidt also stick in his memory, with some of the ‘ups’

including working with his capable and enthusiastic colleagues at Siding Spring to achieve some world-firsts for the telescope.

“We pioneered the use of fibre optics in astronomy, revolutionising the speed at which we could survey stars and galaxies in the Universe – and then went on to exploit that new technology for the benefit of all astronomers.”

As for the ‘downs’, Prof.

Watson said these were mostly accidental, but he found moments like these were also imprinted in his memory.

“Like the memorable night when the telescope’s 1.2 metre diameter lens cap was accidentally left on all night, and another when dozens of delicate fibre optics were chopped in half inside

the telescope…hours of precious observing time lost – but no names will be mentioned!”

Prof. Watson said this week’s celebration of the UK Schmidt’s 50th anniversary, as well as National Science We e k , p r o v i d e d a great opportunity to reflect on his time in Coonabarabran and say thank you to the community.

“The 25 years I lived in Coonabarabran came with a supportive family and extended family, good friends, fantastic colleagues and a welcoming community – as well as a stunning natural environment,” Prof. Watson said.

“The 50th birthday of the telescope that brought me here is the perfect opportunity to say a heartfelt thank you to all!”

Robots for the win Students at Coonabarabran Public School have recently had the unique and exciting opportunity to take part in robotics during recess.

Teacher, Tim Fay, who runs the sessions with students, said robotics allowed for an engaging mix of problemsolving, lateral and logical thinking, and technical skills.

“It challenges students to think a couple of steps ahead, check their working and, best of all, have fun doing it,” Mr Fay said.

“Thus far, my favourite invention was a robot that drove when presented with a red block and stopped when presented with a green, which was very exciting when the student lost their green block while the robot was active!”

In an ever-evolving age with technological advancement at the forefront, this opportunity gives students a headstart towards a potential career in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), providing a foundation for further studies in STEM throughout high school and university.

With an ever-changing workforce where many jobs are yet to be created, these skills in STEM will help give students a unique edge, should they decide to pursue a career in STEM in the future.

Momentum flows for river restoration Native biodiversity is returning as the Castlereagh River Restoration project continues. The project will see an improvement to water quality and community engagement on the river bank.

by GEORGIA SPENCE Continual effor ts suppor ting native ecology and community

Funded by the MurrayD a r l i ng Hea lthy Rive r

MEET AN ASTONOMER

grant, a team has been put together to restore t wo k ilometres of the Castlereagh River.

Organised by arborist and native enthusiast, Sam Bragg, the team consists of like-minded men, Peter Bragg, Peter Humphr iss and Alex Nottle.

The funding is focused on removing introduced species and weeds along the river, improving water quality, conserving Indigenous sites and providing more accessibility to the river.

Already, the changes h a ve re s u l te d i n t h e community interacting more with the river, with a variety of fish sighted by the public.

Tree -planting days have seen successful community engagement and more days are planned for spring.

These sites are monitored for any followup work, to continue to provide good health to the river system.

As more work is done to plant trees and remove introduced species, less weeds will evolve.

“Weeds do not g row w ith i n a n at i ve envi ronment and the Pilliga is an example,” Mr Bragg said.

Further tree-planting d a y s w i l l i nvo l ve t h e wider community and specific days for schools will help educate

students on their local environment.

Mr Bragg noted the importance of bringing a healthy, native ecology to the river system.

“We are at the top of the Mur ray- Darling catchment; if there is poor water quality at the top, then it travels down the river system,” he said.

At the moment, woody weeds need to be cleared in order to plant native trees.

The native fauna will unburden the r iver of anaerobic leaves from introduced, deciduous trees; which is killing the good bacter ia in the water.

Team member, Peter Humphriss said stabilising

the r iver envi ronment with natives will create positive microbial life in the water.

Water is a source of life for all living things, m ea n i n g th e p ro j ect w i l l b r i ng a d i ve r se range of native wildlife, helping to restore native biodiversity.

While some members of the pub l ic have expressed concern about the erosion of the river banks due to the removal of t rees and weeds, Mr Bragg and Mr Humphriss assure that the native plants will hold the river bank in place, while removing the chance of invasive weeds choking the envi ronment and affecting water quality.

Name: Brad Tucker Tell me a bit about yourself and your role at SSO? I am an astronomer at Mt Stromlo Observatory.

I use lots of the telescopes at SSO for my work, nearly daily. I use them to study the activity in a supermassive black hole, as well as stars that explode.

What inspired you to pursue a career in science?

I only became interested at university. I gave astronomy a shot, and liked it and kept doing it!

What has been the most exciting thing you’ve ever observed at SSO? Finding a supernova, within hours of it exploding.

What’s the most interesting scientific fact you’ve ever heard that still blows your mind? Every second, 50 stars explode in the Universe.

How do you think science will change the world in the next 50 years? Technology is advancing so quickly, and what we are developing is moving quicker to the commercial world. Space is massively speeding up, and so our ability to be connected, see, and contact around the world is only going to change more thanks to space. We will then see more activity on the Moon, people on Mars, and have signs of life in our Solar System.

How do you think we can encourage more young people to pursue careers in science? Just to show what science is about, to have fun, ask questions, and try!

“If you have healthy r iver s, you have a healthy community,” Mr Humphriss said.

The project aims to fo cu s o n co m m u n i t y accessibility to the river, w ith p l ans fo r mo re pathways to be built.

Mr Bragg is also offering to educate the community on harmful weed s th ro ug h pos t s named ‘Weed of the Week’, found online.

“It starts a conversation on landcare and reduces the chance of seeds from these weeds being carried into the river,” he said.

The project is funded until the end of March 2024.

Weekly cattle and sheep market wrap • Cattle yardings hit a three-month high.

• Heavier lamb and mutton prices declined.

• Slaughter remains at elevated levels.

Cattle Cattle yardings lifted 7 % we ek- on-we ek t o 51,990 head, the highest week ly volume si nce early May. Yardings in Queensland eased by 2,430 to 16,611 head, largely due to a 1,904 head softening in Roma, while yardings rose by 5,803 head in NSW and were largely unchanged everywhere else.

Indicator prices eased this week, with slightly fewer buyers present at several larger sales and variable condition impacting the makeup of indicators.

T he feeder steer indicator eased 7¢ weekon-week to finish at 314¢/

kg lwt, but there was considerable variation across yards and lots.

I n R oma a nd Da lby, ya rd i ngs of yea rl i ng feeder steers remained relatively stable weekon-week, although the combined feeder steer price in these markets r o s e 8 ¢ t o f i n i sh at 332¢/kg lwt, suggesting that demand f rom feeder buyers improved week-on-week in these markets.

Conversely, in NSW there were severa l saleyards where numbers of relatively light yearling steers were transacted at a discount to the average, which affected the performance

of the indicator overall.

Sheep and lambs The market was mixed this week, as mutton and heavier lamb prices eased, while young lamb prices rose as some new s e a s on l a mbs b eg a n entering saleyards.

Yardings rose by 5% week-on-week to 222,784 head, mostly due to a 10,473 uplift in lamb yardings to 167,675 head.

Yardings declined by 4,981 to 9,078 head in Western Australia but rose in small amounts across the east coast.

T he trade lamb indicator eased by 16¢ to end the week at 472¢/ kg cwt. In Wagga, prices declined 45¢ as buyer

interest was constrained a nd old trade la mbs attracted substantial discounts, though the indicator remained above the national average at 510¢/kg cwt.

I n c ont ra st t o the trade lamb and mutton indicators, the restocker lamb indicator jumped 81¢ t o 3 52¢ / kg c w t .

However, th is was a small component of the market overall, restocker lamb yardings fell by 6,119 to 12,460 head, making up only 7% of total lamb yardings.

Slaughter Sheep and lamb slaughter remained high this week at a combined 577,323 head, 38,235

head higher week-onweek and the highest August week on record.

T his was mostly due to increased lamb slaughter, which rose by 36,663 to 444,479 head, while sheep slaughter only rose by 1,572 to 132,844 head.

Cattle slaughter for the week was 121,713, up 639 head from the last week and the largest weekly slaughter figure in August since 2019.

Slaughter in Queensland has been above 60,000 head for the past 13 weeks, while it did not exceed 60,000 head in any week in 2022. © Meat & Livestock Australia Limited, 2023

Community rallies for action in the Pilliga The fight against the Santos’ coal seam gas project in the Pilliga has highlighted community spirit and strength in numbers.

by GEORGIA SPENCE L a s t S at u r d ay ’s event on 12 Aug ust , was considered a day of connection as over 160 people attended a rally, calling for an end to the Narrabri Gas Project in the Pilliga Forest.

The peaceful action drew together Gomeroi people, local residents a nd u n ion memb er s opposing Santos’ coal seam gas (C SG) exploration project.

Approx imately 850 CSG wells are planned to be drilled in the Pilliga, without the consent of the Gomeroi community.

The rally aligned with a Federal Court hearing, where they are currently considering an appeal against the decision of the Native Title Tribunal (NTT), from December last year.

More than 6 0 ca rs then headed out to the Pilliga, gathering at the Yarramen rest stop.

The final stop was in Narrabri at the Santos office.

M s T ighe sa id she was hoping to organise a n a f t er no on wher e people who missed the rally could learn more information about the threat of CSG. To fur ther suppor t the cause, M s T ighe encourages others to continue the momentum by calling, or writing letters to local government members.

“We have clearly said no to the Santos’ gas-field through the Native Title process and are fighting the development on the ground,” Ms Tighe said.

AROUND THE SCHOOLS Coonabarabran High

St Lawrence’s Central School St Lawrence’s has had another busy week!

O ver t he l a s t t wo weeks, St Lawrence’s held thei r Student Centred Conferences.

These are an integral par t of our students’ le a r n i n g e x p e r ien c e as it’s a good chance for students, parents and teachers to receive feedback on how their child is progressing with their learning and if there is anything extra

that we could be doing as educators to best support thei r ch i ld . O vera l l , ou r Student Centred Conferences were a huge success.

St Lawrence’s students have also been enjoying a rou nd-robi n so ccer tournament organised

by Mrs Meghan Redden.

T he t ou r nament is being held between a mix of students from St Lawrence’s and teams have been organised into

an infants tournament and a primary tournament.

T h i s s o c c e r tournament is in celebration of the Women’s Wo rld C up 2023. Our students are h av i ng a g r e at t i me learning and play ing soccer. The tournament is starting to heat up w ith semi-f inals and finals set to be played this week.

Single Cup

I n a d isplay of spor tsmansh ip and ded ication, nea rly 10 0 st udent s f r om Coonaba rabran H igh embarked on a journey to Gilgandra last Wednesday, 9 August, to engage in the timehonor e d S i n g le C up sports competition.

This tradition, wh ich d at es back t o 19 71 , w it ne s s e d t he triumphant return of Coonaba rabran H igh as they secured victory against Gilgandra

and Coonamble High Schools.

Throughout the day, the three schools clashed in a series of intense contests spanning netball, rugby league, s o c c er, ba s ketba l l , tennis, golf, and lawn bowls.

Each mat ch held the promise of either 4 points for a win, 1 point for a loss, or 2 points for a draw – a testament to the significance of every effort.

The day commenced with golf, lawn bowls,

and tennis events.

R e m a r k a b l y, n u m e r o u s Coonabarabran students participated in these disciplines, setting aside personal preferences for the greater cause of their school’s representation – a display of selflessness that underscored the collective spirit of the athletes.

Among the standout moments were C oonaba rabran’s compelling victories in boys’ basketball and the tr iumphant sweep in

bowls, golf, and tennis.

As the sun set, the Coonaba rabran H igh conti ngent emerged v ic t or iou s , w it h t he Single Cup held aloft by sports representatives Alirah Watton and Neo Imrie.

The 2023 Single Cup c o mp e t i t i o n w i l l b e remembered as a day of unity, perseverance, a nd s p o r t s m a n s h ip , reinforcing the enduring t rad it ion of f r iend ly r i v a l r y a n d mu t u a l respe ct among these three schools.

Students from St Lawrence’s have been getting into the soccer spirit, in celebration of the Women’s World Cup.

Tooraweenah Public Hands on learning in technology

Students have been ref in ing thei r v isua l spacia l sk i l ls dur ing technolog y lessons.

O n e o f l a s t w e e k ’s challenges was to build a repl ica of the New Z e a l a nd C u i s e n a i r e sculpture, ‘ Tongue of the Dog ’, by M ichael Parekowhai. Students investigated how walls are constructed to provide strength with interlocking blocks on the corners and showed creativity in building a Cuisenaire crocodile.

M rs Jen kin and M rs Smith began the first three-hour module on dyslexia and other r e ad i n g d i f f ic u lt ie s , faci l itated by M rs Brenda Purvis, assistant principal Learning and Support. We are very thankful to our staff for dedicating their time to build their professional capacity to assist current and future students.

Book Fair

We are very thankful to Petria for all the time she has ded icated in hosting our Book Fair

on behalf of the school in the l ibra r y last week. Thank you to the school community for contributing to such a successful Book Fair in 2023. $1,264 of books were sold! Commission, promotional funds and donations translated to $481 worth of books for the school library. As is our tradition, Years K, 1, 2 and 4 each selected a book from the Book Fair for the school.

Karen Smith Principal

Meghanne Wellard visit

We were del ight ed to welcome executive director School Per formance Rural North, Mrs Meghanne Wellard, and director Educational Leadership, Chris Jackson, to our school.

Mrs Wellard has been a strong supporter of our school and readily engages with principals in the Western Plains Network to gain understand ing and support us in our dayto-day operation. Mrs Wellard will be attending t h e We s t e r n P l a i n s Principal’s Conference in Dubbo.

Coonabarabran Public Zone Athletics

Our athletic prowess has always been something to be proud of at CPS and this term is no different, with three age champions at the recent Zone Athletics Ca r n iva l. T here was g reat representation across all the events and in every age group.

We headed off early for the short trek to Coolah on a perfect sunny winter day, to show off our skills.

All students participated w ith enthusiasm, determi nation a nd resilience and need to be congratulated on their amazing sportsmanship, exemplary behaviour,

school spirit and overall determination to achieve.

It was lovely to see the students cheering and supporting their fellow peers at the carnival.

On and off the track and field everyone gave it 100 per cent.

Cong ratulations to everyone who participated with special mention to our Zone age champions: 11 years Boy - Hudson Jenner; 11 years GirlKerry Chatf ield; and Senior Girl champion Olive Moppett.

The best news of the day was when they announced Coonabarabran Public School as the winner of The Champion School

trophy. We wish those students who qualified every success when they travel to Tamworth for North West Athletics on Wednesday 30th August.

John Fleming visit

L a st Mond ay, M r s Sm ith travel led t o Gilgandra to meet with Mr John Fleming, our ex pl icit i nstr uction c o ac h , t o g a i n mor e insights into ways we can challenge and extend ou r students wh i le supporting them in their learning.

PLAYER PROFILES: MEET THE KOOKAS

Tyler Ballard

Tyler has been a raging bull this year with no regard for his body. He has been immensely stronger as the season has gone on and is one of four fiery red heads in our team, always ready to bash the ball up the middle. Injuries have impacted his full potential this year, but fingers crossed the 2024 season will see Ballard on the team sheet.

Tom Cleary

Tom started the season off with a bang and was forging a name for himself in the Kookas side. His season also ended with a bang when a motorbike accident on the farm left him with a broken foot.

Rest assured, you will still find him on the sideline cheering on the boys in full capacity. He is his brother Sam’s biggest supporter and will never pass up an opportunity to banter with the opposition from the sideline.

John Milgate

(Milly) Known by everyone as “Milly”, John is a raging bull on the field and will never back down from a challenge. His impact in the front row has been huge and has seen him cross the white line a few times this season.

He plays with immense passion and grit. At times this season, he has been mistaken for a winger when making breaks down the sideline. His three gorgeous children are always cheering him on from the sideline.

Tom Redden

The Redden name is famous in the Kookas history books. Tom has played fullback and flyhalf this year and has made a strong return following a shoulder injury last season. Tom’s mum, Deb, loves watching him play the game with so much passion and enthusiasm and, of course, getting to watch her husband, son and son-in-law all work together under the Kookas’ name. Tom’s wife, Milly, and gorgeous baby, Audrey, can always be found cheering him on.

Andrew Hain

(Hainy) This moustached man has dominated in the 2nd row this year. He enjoys a can of Coke at half time to keep the legs turning over. An all-round nice guy with excellent defence who is well respected by his team mates. He is always a consistent ball carrier and is a brick wall in defence.

Hainy is always calm and not much phases him.

Brent Morrisey

(Morro) Morro needs no introduction and has been a long-standing member of the Kookas. He is cool, calm and collected at scrum half and his service of the ball is always on point. Morro is well-respected by his team mates and always leads the team song alongside Lonnie, following each and every win. Although a 13-year veteran for the Kookas, he still keeps pace with the young whipper snappers.

Compiled by Madeline Wilson

Hamish Fauchon

(Hammer) Hamish has been our hooker this year, delivering many precision passes. He also throws in the lineout and never shies away from a tackle. What he lacks in height, he certainly makes up for in heart. Hamish said he likes to finish at the back-end of every fitness drill at training, so that his team mates can feel all the success. Hammer loves a social event and a beer or two.

Ethan Thirkell

Daniel Oakes

Shannon Oakes

(Shan) Shannon has been a long-time member of the Kookas’ squad and is always willing to put his body on the line. He dominates in the scrum and is a great team player.

He is faster, stronger and fitter than ever before this year. His domination in the cleanout has not gone unnoticed and you will always find Emily, Macey and Harlem cheering their daddy on.

Luke Mack

(Mack) Luke has returned to the Kookas this season after relocating to Narromine.

He is a great leader on the field and always has a calm head. Luke runs the ball hard and always positions himself well in defence. He is respected by all and his son, Alby, is always on the sideline cheering him on.

(Big Red) Dan, also known as “Big Red” plays in the front row and is a brick wall in defence. A gentle giant who carries the ball well and loves a bit of biff.

Dan always does what is needed for the team.

He has played alongside his brothers, Shannon and Nick, for many years, setting up the legacy for their children to follow.

Dan dominates in the scrum and will always put his hand up for a run.

Daniel James

(DJ) Known as “DJ”, Daniel sadly tore his ACL in a freak training accident.

Rest assured, though, he has turned up to every game since to support his team-mates. He was a great help at Ladies Day and can often be found watching training on a Tuesday and Thursday night at the oval. His contributions have been sorely missed on the field this year.

Jed McEvoy

Jed is a real gentleman of the game and a gentle giant. He is a hard runner of the ball and instrumental in the lineout. He is a great clubman and team player.

He will always give 110% out on the field. Jed’s dad, Steve, is the Kookas’ club president and as a family they are thanked for all they do for the club.

Matthew Walton

Luke Michael

Sam Cleary

(Donny) Sam has had a wonderful rookie season with the Kookas. His impact in the 2nd row has been outstanding and he is always up for a laugh. His brother, Tom, is his biggest fan. Donny has improved immensely over the season and is only getting stronger each week.

Steve Ford

(Fordy) Steve has been an instrumental member of the Kookas this year and has perfect tackling technique. He has been rock solid in lineouts with safe hands. When asked, his daughter Jaz said her favourite thing about watching her daddy play is when he scores a try.

Potentially the nicest bloke on the team.

Luke is an extremely passionate member of the Kookas and can always be heard far and wide on the field. He runs the ball with no regard and will line up anyone on the field for a tackle. He and his brother, Jarrod, have made a great combination this season with dad always cheering his boys on. There has been debate over who the better looking Michael is, but we will let the crowd decide that one!

Lonnie Stone

Lonnie is often referred to as the “heart and soul” of the Kookas. He is in the elite club of Kookas Life Members and plays every game with passion, utmost effort and grit.

He is often found being a pest in the breakdown and getting under the skin of his opposition. He is a big part of the leadership group at the Kookas and is always leading the team song with Morro. His three kids, Jett, Hooper and Lacey, are his biggest fans.

Alexander Knight

(Knighty) Alexander is a tough 2nd rower who not many like to tackle. He is a natural born leader who has been exceptionally consistent this year. Always the first bloke to put his hand up for a run. Knighty is rock solid in defence and has been known to use his head to stop the opposition from getting past him.

Jarrod Michael

This season, the Kookas have been lucky enough to secure former Australian Defence Force rugby representative, Jarrod Michael. He brings pace, experience and physicality to the Kookas’ side. Jarrod made a try-saving tackle in the dying minutes of the major semi-final, on top of scoring two tries, to help the Kookas book their spot in the Grand Final.

He often commutes from Sydney to play each week alongside his brother, Luke. Jarrod is a naturalborn leader and always reassures his team mates out on the paddock.

Harry Willoughby

The Willoughby name needs no introduction, however, there has been talk of Harry maybe just pipping Nick at the post in his rookie season with the club. Harry has taken to the game like a fish to water and has shown speed, agility and toughness. Harry has played fullback this season and you will always find his dad, Noel, on the sideline cheering him on.

He is always eager to build on his rugby knowledge and skill base.

13 - Coonabarabran Times, Thursday, 17th August 2023

Brad Pugh

(Pughy) Affectionately known as “Pughy” by all, Brad is no stranger to a Kookas jersey. After being named best on ground in last year’s grand final, he needs no introduction. He is incredibly strong in the second row and is always consistent in defence. Brad is well-respected by all in the squad and approaches each game with a calm head. You will always hear his wife, Maddie, loudly cheering him and the Kookas on from the sideline.

Charlie Redden

Cody Higgins

Cody has been doing his apprenticeship in the front row this year for the Kookas. Unfortunately, a niggling shoulder injury has kept Cody out of the game for the last few weeks. He is always eager to learn new skills and is very unselfish with the ball. Hopefully, 2024 brings an injury-free season for Cody.

Lachlan Stokie

Lach has stepped up for the Kookas this year and had a crack at the front row. Even with a niggling shoulder injury, he has given 100% every game and does everything asked of him. He plays with true grit and it doesn’t take much to light the fire in him. His daughter Alina is always cheering him on at games.

Charlie plays in the second row and has returned to the Kookas this year after an absence from the club. He runs the ball hard and is a wrecking ball in defence. His impact was sorely missed when he was away travelling in recent weeks. Charlie has great game knowledge and will always give 110% out on the paddock. He is a fantastic lineout jumper and always great in the breakdown.

Ethan has mostly played hooker this year, but at times has put his hand up to play in the front row where he does not let his size deter his impact.

He loves the biff and plays with great passion.

His lineout throwing has improved immensely as the season has progressed.

You will always find his dad, Heath, cheering him on from the sideline at every game.

Darcy Clifton

Matty has mostly played on the wing for the Kookas this year. He has been a part of the team for the last couple of years and is improving with both skill and confidence in every season. When called upon, he also possesses a reliable goal-kicking boot. He is a great corner try finisher and has an immense speed. Matty is an all-round nice guy and unselfish player.

Darcy has played flyhalf this season in his return to the Kookas. He possesses an endless bag of skills including a step so good he could break his own ankles.

He is rock solid in defence and is an exceptional goal kicker. Being coached by his dad, Sam, has made it all the more special for him this year. Coming into the grand final, his consistent goal kicking will be an asset to the Kookas.

Peter Redden

Sam Clifton

(Spark) - Coach Pete is one half of the Kookas coaching duo. His wife, Deb, admires his sense of fairness, ensuring all players are utilised to the best of their ability.

Pete is a proud “Kookas Old Boy” and you will always see him with his jacket, shirt and cap on.

After only having shoulder surgery in recent weeks, Pete was still able to coach from a chair on the sideline.

He is highly respected by all players and holds an innate amount of rugby knowledge. He never goes far without his coaching notebook, that holds all the secrets.

Coach Sam is the other half of the dynamic duo coaching team. He bursts with pride as a coach and rides every single emotion of the game with the players. This season, he is coaching son, Darcy, who has described him as an immensely passionate person who has put a lot of the Kookas’ success this season down to his dad’s motivational drive to win. You will often find Sam training alongside the boys out on the paddock. He readily paces up and down the sideline with the play, and wife, Megan, can always be heard cheering loudly.

Top five sorted It has taken the full extent of the 14 competition rounds, but the final composition and finishing order of the top five has been sorted out after the playing of the last round of the 2023 Castlereagh League competition last Saturday, 12 August.

Af ter an indif ferent s ta r t to t h e i r c o m e back year in the Cas tl e reag h Leag ue, the Coonaba rab ran Unicorns have won five of their last six games to claim f ifth spot on the competition ladder after they downed the Binnaway Bombshel l s 46 to 20.

The Gilgandra Panthers were relegated to si x th position after going down to the Dunedoo Swans 32 to 18 at Gilgandra, to finish out of the semi-finals for the first time in quite a few years.

The Unicorns will head to Narromine this Sunday to play in the elimination semi-final against the Jets.

These two teams have only met once before, that being back in round seven when the Jets won 42 to 24 at Narromine.

It is highly likely that Narromine will find the U n i c o r n s a d i f fe r e n t p ro p o s i t i o n t h i s t i m e around, because since that match C o o n a b a ra b ra n h a s only dropped the one g a m e, t h a t b e i n g a narrow 22 to 20 loss to the wel l - per fo r med Dunedoo Swans.

The battle bet ween the t wo half backs should be a highlight of what presents as an even and exciting battle between the two teams, with both Narromine’s D oug Pot te r a nd th e Unicorns’ Harry Reardon being in great form and highly instr umental in their respective teams’ successes.

The Gulgong Terriers maintained the Boronia Cup and their unbeaten status when they got over the top of the Cobar Rooste r s at Gulgong, c l a i m i n g a 3 6 to 2 4

w in and at the same earning themselves next weekend off before they begin their finals’ journey, playing in the major semi-final at Gulgong on Saturday, 26 August.

It could be that they are up against the Rooster s once again, if the third-placed Roosters can get over the top of the secondplaced Dunedoo Swans in Saturday’s qualifying semi-final that will be played on Dunedoo’s home tu r f, which w i l l present the Roosters with their fifth consecutive road trip!

The previous meetings between the two sides saw the Roosters score a c o nv i n c i n g w i n i n round three at Cobar, winning 42 to 16, and then the return match at Dunedoo resulted in a 20-all draw.

The Roosters will have all three grades at D unedoo fo r the qualif ying semis, with their reser ve grade to play Coonaba rab ran and the Roosterettes to meet Narromine in the league tag.

The Coonamble Bears and the Baradine Magpies finished their first-grade commitments for the season when they met at Baradine, with the Magpies taking the honours 38 to 16.

The games at both Dunedoo on Saturday and Nar romine on Sunday will kick off at 11.30am to cater for any extra time that may be required throughout the day.

LADIES GOLF Happy, Happy Handicappy!

Doreen Searle delivers another amazing score of 41 points in the Stableford event contested last Wednesday, 9 August. Our lady handicapper was seen doing cartwheels across the car park on her way home to take another two shots off Doreen’s handicap.

There is no doubt that the current run on the fairways have been a great help to Doreen’s score. We can’t wait to see what she can do this coming Wednesday, which is another Stableford.

Balls were won by Kerrie Ward and Jan Keppie, both with very good scores on 36 points. Kerrie also won a second ball with a Nearest the Pin on the 4/13th hole.

On 23, 26 and 27 August we contest a Par event, round five, sponsored by The Lighthouse.

Monday, 28 August – N & NWDLGA Veterans Tournament. Wednesday, 30 August and Saturday, 2 September – Stableford.

The Chapman Family Monthly Medal has been put back a week and will be played on 6 and 9 September, which is also the first round of the Ladies Championships.

Humour A customer wanted only half a lettuce and insisted that the lad serving him check with the manager before denying his request.

The boy approached his boss and said, “Some moron wants to buy half a lettuce” – and then realising the customer was standing right behind him, “And this gentleman” he added quickly, “has kindly offered to buy the other half.”

Later the manager said, “That was pretty quick thinking. Tell me, where are from son?”

“New Zealand” the boy replied.

“And why did you leave?”

“Because these days there’s nobody there but loose women and rugby players,” the lad explained.

“I see” said the manager. “You know my wife came from New Zealand.”

“Really?” said the boy. “What team did she play for?”

Can the Kookas go undefeated?

Coonabarabran Rugby Club can create history at 2pm this Saturday, 19 August, when this year’s team could become the first to be crowned undefeated premiers...a title very few clubs can claim.

Standing in their way is Wellington, who defeated a gallant Coolah on Saturday 20-6, after scores were locked at six-all at the one-hour mark, before the Redbacks’ talented utility back, Ali Beale, scored three late tries to finish the game with a personal tally of 18 points.

I n the two games Coonabarabran has played against Wellington at home this season, the Kookas have been guilty of leaking tries early. This has resulted in some tight finishes, as players like Beale come into their own with a tiring defence, which has given Wellington the opportunity to steal the game late, on the back of these early soft points.

I’m sure players and coaches will be focusing on t h i s p er io d of t he game, along with the rest of their skillful backline; particularly their fiveeight Keiren Brien, who has a wonderful rugby brain and was superb in catching our outside backs out of position in the major semi with pinpoint kicking, which turned the Kookas around and found them chasing after the ball in a race with a lighting-fast Redback winger.

Wellington has a solid scr um and lineout, so every Kookaburra will be required to concentrate all day. If we do this and avoid silly penalties and the dreaded yellow card, if our fantastic supporters turn up with loud uninhibited voices, we will be crowned de s er ve d , u nde fe at e d premiers.

T he Kookaburras have been the stand out team in the competition all year, with the most points scored, boasting a points’ differential of 648 - well head of secondplaced Wellington on 385.

The Kookas have received a bonus point in 11 of the 12 games played, have the largest home crowds, a hard-working committee - and all well managed by club president, Steve McEvoy.

But none of this g uarantees success on grand-final day. Speaking to one of our most loyal suppor t ers a nd past president, David Sanson r e c e nt ly, he r e c a l l e d pl ay i n g for t he 19 6 9 Coonaba rabran Rugby League team - then known as the Blues who included the Australian Kangaroos great, Ken Thornett. This team went through Group

14 undefeated and won the Western Division Caltex Cup, which included all the clubs from Groups 10, 11, 14 and 15, defeating Bathurst St Pat’s in the f i n a l . T h e y d e f e at e d Baradine comfortably all season, however, 54 years later Dave stills feels the pain as he told me how B a r ad i ne out sm a r t e d them on the only day that mattered, 9-8.

I’m damn sure coaches Pete R edden and Sam Clifton will have lectured the boys within an inch of their life about being complacent and, as a group, I know they will give all their nerve, muscle and sinew long after they feel they have no more to give.

As supporters, let’s all get together, along with those who have not been all year - or are maybe even attending a Kookas’ rugby game for their first time - and enjoy a great community day out.

The grand final day will include driving down John Street, Coonabarabran, past ribbons and business house displays, to number three oval where there will be a jumping castle and face painting for the kids, a bar and grandstand seating on both sides of the

ground, a 40-year reunion for old boys, and singing of the National Anthem along with Alan Poyner.

Come and watch the pl ayer s r u n ont o t he ground through the crowd after a motivational talk from legendary Kookas’ player, Richard Atkinson and then watch all our fine young men do us proud.

It’s going to be a day from the top drawer, but please note, as we are expecting a big crowd the entrance will be through the number one oval gate to avoid highway congestion, so I’d suggest people arrive early and get the party on its way.

As usual, the game will be broadcast live on 2WCR 99.5 F M from 1.45pm, relaying to Wellington’s Binjang Community Radio 91.5 FM. The game will also be televised live and free on Cluch TV, available on your phone, digital TV or computer.

Finally, Adam at the Imperial Hotel has quite a party organised for after the game, including the ta lent ed Da n Mu r phy si ng i ng a l l you r old favourites, live from 8pm.

PLAYER PROFILES: MEET THE KOOKAS

Tim McManus

(Pappy) Tim is our fearless winger who has overcome a fractured eye socket to get to this point in the season.

He is often mistaken for Ryan Papenhuyzen and is an all-round great bloke with safe hands under the high ball. Tim is a regular at training working on his skills. He is a team player and a proud Kooka.

Nick Wham

(Whammy) Whammy has been instrumental for the Kookas in the last three seasons. He has played wing, fullback and anywhere the coaches have needed him. He puts his body on the line and is keen to learn from his older compatriots. Whammy has a huge heart and is always wanting to improve.

15 - Coonabarabran Times, Thursday, 17th August 2023

Sam Wilson

Sam is a passionate Kooka who always plays with fire in his belly. He runs the ball with no regard for his body and is a brick wall in defence. On game days, Sam is often up at 6am, well before kick off. His daughter, Frankie, said her favourite thing about watching Daddy play is that he plays as part of a team.

David Sulter

Dave, known as “Sults” has been the captain of the Kookas this season and has done an amazing job of keeping the boys calm and composed in the big moments. He is dominant in all areas of play and is the reigning 2022 player of the year in the “Oilers Cup”. Sults is respected by everyone in the team and is a stron leader.

For Missile: women take the field A special feature of the Coonabarabran Rugby League Football Club’s final home game on Saturday, 12 August, was a friendly women’s league tag match in honour of long-serving club volunteer, Jeanette “Missile” Capewell.

Cardiologist for Narrabri

By KAVINA KUMAR

news@nwcourier.com.au

The long-awaited arrival of a town cardiologist will give Narrabri residents new access to crucial heart health services.

Doctor Roger Chatoor will take the trip from Dubbo once a month to see and treat patients at the Maitland Street Medical Centre.

A medical partnership borne of 14 years of professional friendship seemed like the next logical step for Dr Chatoor and Dr Navin Erathnage, known by members of the community as Dr Navin.

“Dr Navin has always been good to refer patients to me and I have been wanting to provide this outreach service for people who cannot travel,” said Dr Chatoor.

“When people know a cardiologist is willing to come to their town, it helps because access is a real challenge in this region.

“It’s nice to be able to support each other, and having a specialist’s presence in the town helps solidify doctor-patient relationships, so my visits will be better for patient care.”

Dr Chatoor also provides outreach services to other towns every few months and is a passionate about growing decentralised services in regional areas.

“There’s a lot of work but patients experience longer wait times regionally, and with cardiology, early access is important,” said Dr Chatoor.

“Decentralised care is easier to resource than we think, it’s easy to run and offers people a specialist service that’s one less thing they have to travel for.

“One thing we’ve noticed in Dubbo is the more services you provide, the more they are used. People currently have to come to Dubbo to get things done but we can do that here quite easily. The infrastructure cost of that is not high at all and it’s just having that level of expertise to help build, manage, and provide it."

Completing his undergraduate studies at the University of West Indies, Dr Chatoor went on to train as a cardiologist at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital in London.

His expertise lies in many aspects of general cardiology; including heart failure, hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias and valvular heart disease, with a special interest in the invasive assessment of coronary artery disease.

After consulting in England for 10 years he arrived in Australia to open the first interventional service in Cairns where he stayed for two years.

When his wife Dr Jacqueline Askwith

New cardiologist in residence, Dr Roger Chatoor with Narrabri and District Chamber of Commerce president Russell Stewart and Dr Navin Erathnage (Maitland Street Medical Centre).

couldn’t get a job as a paediatrician in the same town, the couple cast their net wider, and the first place they were offered jobs together was in Dubbo.

“My wife looked around and Dubbo offered us both jobs, so we went to Dubbo for a year and stayed for 10,” said Dr Chatoor.

“There is just such a charm to country practice, I didn’t know until I moved to Dubbo and experienced it for myself.

“The really nice thing about country practice is you get to know people, in Dubbo I get to look after brothers and sisters and aunts and uncles, there are some lovely farming families who are just the salt of the earth. They are very close-knit and look after their nans, and I love the relationships over anything else.

“I have patients who come to see me, and we’ll just have a chat, I’ll have little grannies come to see me just to have a day out. On Monday I had the greatest compliment I’ve ever had, a 92-year-old with macular degeneration that I’ve been looking after for eight years, said Dr Chatoor, I just wanted

to say I think you’re the most handsome doctor I’ve ever seen.

“I said Beryl go get your injections, then I went and told my wife and she said, ‘She’s probably got macular,’ and I said … yeah that’s right.”

Dr Chatoor is currently one month into his new practice arrangement and already has big plans for the future development of Narrabri’s onsite heart health facilities.

“Narrabri is in a great part of the region, it’s very well set, and we’ve been talking about setting up a diagnostic service here that would supply a large part of the region, then patients could come here instead of going to Tamworth or other places.

“Then we can offer things like halters and stress echo tests and echocardiograms, and that will constitute a lot of stuff that people still have to travel for and that will be enough to provide a service that is a bit more comprehensive than the service we have now.

“Dr Navin is very good at building things, you can tell from the practice, and that’s the

sort of outlook you need to develop services. The great thing about cardiology is that it can be set up and run remotely, where you can provide a lot of services offsite.”

Dr Chatoor undertakes a wide range of cardiological procedures which include pacemaker and ICD implantation and interrogation, transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiography, arrhythmia management, as well as external and internal cardioversion, dedicating a large part of his practice to the invasive management of coronary artery disease.

Dr Chatoor started in Narrabri in June and is pleased with the arrangement so far.

“Dr Navin is very accommodating and the girls are very helpful,” said Dr Chatoor. “The patients are great, all you need to do is feel that the service is valued and that people appreciate the effort you’re making, that’s all.”

Dr Askwith will also be joining Dr Chatoor in offering her paediatrician services a day per month in Narrabri at the end of the year.

We would like to welcome a visiting Cardiologist to our practice.

Dr Navin and his team would like to proudly announce our new Cardiologist, Dr Chatoor.

Gunnedah Shire celebrating AgQuip’s milestone year MARKETPLACE For 50 years, AgQuip has been held in Gunnedah and council is proud to sponsor the event in its milestone golden anniversary this year.

Since its inception half a century ago, AgQuip has become recognised as one of the biggest industry field days in the world.

AgQuip 2023 will be held from Tuesday, August 22 to Thursday, August 24. Held at a permanent, purpose-built site 8km west of Gunnedah in the heartland of agricultural Australia, AgQuip attracts more than 100,000 visitors over three days and is one of the most anticipated rural trade shows on the national calendar.

“AgQuip is now widely recognised as one of the biggest industry field days in the world and the hard working team behind this event should all be congratulated for their efforts to develop it into the major success story that it has become,” said mayor Jamie Chaffey.

“Gunnedah Shire Council is extremely proud to be a gold

sponsor of AgQuip in its milestone 50th year and delighted to play an ongoing role with the event that has contributed enormously to our local economy and the profile of our region.”

This year, council will host a trade stand promoting its various services and activities with information pamphlets, tourism brochures, pens and notepads to give away.

Councillors and mayor Jamie Chaffey will also be on hand to meet the community.

“We encourage people to come to our stand and meet some of our staff and councillors and welcome visitors to come and see us to discover what to see and do while they are in Gunnedah for AgQuip,” Cr Chaffey said.

Organisers are expecting a massive turnout for the 50th birthday event, with over thousands of attendees and hundreds of exhibitors expected from across Australia and overseas over the three days.

AgQuip organisers, ACM Rural Events, says it will be a fantastic celebration looking back across the five decades of Aon AgQuip

AgQuip is a major event for Gunnedah Shire and typically attracts up to 100,000 visitors across three days.

and showcasing the best in agri-technology.

“What a mammoth journey it has been and I am so very proud

and excited to be preparing for the 50th Aon AgQuip,” said AgQuip general manager Kate Nugent.

The Gunnedah Shire Council stand is located at site number AA-BB/09, which is in the Education Pavillion.

Powerline upgrade could stop farm shock: NSW Farmers NSW Farmers Energy Transition spokesman Reg Kidd says upgrading existing powerlines would short-circuit community pain over transmission projects.

A proposal from the Victoria Energy Policy Centre to use existing powerline easements to house 80-metre-high pylons and high voltage powerlines was worth investigating for NSW as well, Mr Kidd said.

“We’ve got people being told their farms will be cut in two by enormous towers carrying high-voltage powerlines, and it’s creating a real headache for landholders and communities,” Mr Kidd said.

“This suggestion from Victoria would basically re-purpose the existing transmission line routes, drastically reducing the pain for landholders and giving people more certainty about what will be installed and where.

“At the very least this is worth serious consideration, particularly if it will save not only time and money but also prevent disruption to food production.”

The major investment into wind and solar installations across rural and regional communities had caused significant tension in recent years, with complaints of developers turning up with lines drawn on maps, Mr Kidd said.

We’ve got people being told their farms will be cut in two by enormous towers carrying highvoltage powerlines, and it’s creating a real headache for landholders and communities.

YOUR PARTNER IN PRECISION AGRICULTURE Vantage NSW specialises in integrating agronomy, hardware, software and services to improve productivity and profitability to service the increasing complexity of farming operations.

REG KIDD “To date the genuine consultation has been pretty ordinary in some places, and it seems it’s the result of someone in an office somewhere drawing lines on a map willy-nilly,” he said.

“We’ve already got the potential social problems of catering for an enormous, short-term workforce during construction of these projects, with shortages of doctors, nurses and other professions likely to be exacerbated.

“Why not take the opportunity to reduce the hassle – and the expense – and repurpose the existing powerline easements?”

We are very lucky to have the people we have in our business who treat each job and customer with the detail required to be successful in our field.

Coriander, Ginger & Pork Wanton Soup Preparation 30 min | Cooking 20 min | Serves 4 INGREDIENTS 8 cups chicken stock 6 slices ginger 1 tbs salt reduced soy sauce 1 teaspoon sesame oil 2 bunches baby choy sum, trimmed and stems chopped sliced green onions (shallots) and red chilli, to serve Coriander, ginger & pork wontons (makes 24): 250g pork mince 1/3 cup coriander leaves, finely chopped 2 green onions (shallots), trimmed and finely chopped 1 garlic clove, crushed 1½ tbs finely grated ginger 24 fresh wonton wrappers*

STEP 1 To make the wontons, combine all ingredients in a bowl.

Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined. Place 2 tsp mixture in the centre of a wonton wrapper. Brush wrapper edges with water, and crimp sides together, removing any bubbles, to seal. Place onto a plate. Repeat using remaining filling and wrappers.

STEP 2 Place stock, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil into a large saucepan. Cover and gently bring to the boil over medium-high heat.

Add choy sum stems and cook for 1-2 minutes until vibrant. Add choy sum leaves and cook until wilted. Using tongs, transfer choy sum to a plate.

STEP 3 Reduce heat to bring stock mixture to a gentle simmer, add wontons in 2 batches to the simmering stock and cook for 5-6 minutes until tender and cooked through.

STEP 4 To serve, arrange choy sum and wontons in deep serving bowls. Ladle over the hot broth, top with sliced chilli and green onions and serve. * Fresh wonton wrappers are available in the fridge from some greengrocers, Asian food stores and large supermarkets.

Both black and apricot genetics in Froghollow’s breeding program The Froghollow Limousin Stud began breeding Limousin cattle in 1996 while based on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales at Black Mountain.

The region is known for its cold climate and the ability to breed and fatten quality livestock. Its bulls have been sold far and wide with a loyal clientele both local and interstate.

The Froghollow breeding program has both black and apricot genetics that are bred to mother, milk and finish early on pasture with the aim to have the complete herd homozygous polled in the future.

All cattle are sold under the Limousin Assurance Program. This program assures only registered Limousin cattle which have been docility scored. It therefore has estimated breeding values for docility along with a breeding warranty.

Bulls are sold privately out of the paddock starting from the Beef Week field day and continuing out of the paddock until they are sold.

“By taking this marketing approach, we can match the bulls more accurately to the operation they are going into and don’t have to fill them full of grain, which is something the long term clients of Frog-hollow appreciate,” owner of The Froghollow Limousin Stud Matt Friend said.

The stud also sells a select few bulls through the Northern Limousin Breeders Sale at Scone.

This year Froghollow sold the top priced bull and topped the averages at the sale with a sale record of $28,000.

The bull Froghollow Ace S1480 went into the largest Limousin Stud in Australia, Mandayen as the new stud sire, which Froghollow Limousin Stud takes pride in.

Beef up your bottom line with Truro Whiteface genetics extra weight as either a straight Hereford, or a Baldy, guarantees British bred content with the whiteface.

This is unique to the whiteface breed.

No other breed brands them with that guarantee like a “Baldy”.

The Truro cow herd is the Hann family’s pride and joy. Fertility, calving ease, moderate birth with growth.

It expects all females to have a calf every year, from two year olds onwards. Bad udders, feet or temperament are not tolerated.

Truro purchased genetics valued at $74,000 last year and only buys the best.

Sires go out twice a year and longevity of sire power is imperative.

Truro believes sires need to perform and last.

The bulls sold must be the same as it is bred into them. Buyers should not be excepted to replace bulls every year – a massive cost that can be avoided.

Truro Whiteface bulls are a genetic package with performance.

Carcase shape is imperative and Truro strives to increase carcase and IMF.

By introducing Truro Whiteface genetics into herds, be it straight breeding or Baldy breeding, the herd will be impacted with a genetic package that is second to none.

Truro Whiteface can back this up with facts.

This year, for the first time in seven years, it re-entered the showring to benchmark itself against the best in the business, and won the following: Inverell Hereford Feature Show, Supreme Beast of the Show, of all breeds.

Sydney Royal Easter Show, Supreme Hereford exhibit, and Top 5 in the Interbreed (all breeds).

Taroom Show (Charolais Feature), from 243 exhibits, Truro was awarded the Supreme Beast of the show.

Truro have entered cattle in the RAS feedlot trial every year since its inception, and have won highest daily weight gain twice and is always at the top end for weight gain.

Truro Whiteface is using cutting edge genetics for fertility, calving ease, growth, carcase and IMF. Introducing a Truro Whiteface bull into the herd guarantees

These traits are industry driven and paid for at a higher rate by all processors.

Cattle producers should listen to what the industry is saying, and be driven by those indicators that environment allows for breeding and maximise returns.

Some breeds may get more cents per kg, but money per head is the real benchmark.

2023 Spring bulls are a powerful group, 40 high performance bulls with data to back them up.

Truro Whiteface won’t compromise on type or performance.

Truro guarantees: * Sire verified. * Tested free of recessive genes. * Vaccinated for Vibrio, Pestiguard , 7 in 1 and 3 day sickness.

Truro Whiteface’s Spring Sale will be held on property at “Truro” Bellata on Monday, August 28, 2023.

The sale will be conducted by Elders Gunnedah and North West Stock and Property Moree and interfaced with Auctions Plus.

To receive a catalogue please contact the agents or vendors Scotty and Pip Hann on 0427 937 839.

Consistency and reliability evident in the Oldfield herd It is Oldfield Poll Herefords and Angus Stud’s 39th year of breeding stud Poll Hereford cattle and fourth year of breeding stud Angus cattle and is proud to be a founding member of Breedplan.

There has been a correction in the red meat market by bringing prices off the extreme high of the past year.

Smart cattle producers will stick to the fundamentals of their operation - live calves, pregnant cows and meeting average markets with good performance.

“At Oldfield, we move beyond chasing one trait over another to a balanced approach for a self-replacing operation. Consistency and reliability is evident in our herd, across many traits, and that is what we offer to you. This is the Oldfield difference,” Oldfield Poll Herefords and Angus Stud’s owner Peter McArthur said.

“Both Herefords and Angus breeds are in high demand due to their fertility, eating and doing abilities in Australia’s varied climate. Our breeding program continues to use the best genetics we can source throughout Australia. It’s always more efficient to use bulls with top genetics than the second row and our bulls can breed very consistently.”

“We offer yearling bulls that average around 500kg at 12 months, off grass! No doubt these younger bulls are becoming more popular with lots of producers as they see their value. Genetically we are very proud of their performance.”

In the Herefords offering, there is a group of bulls by the $160,000 Injemira Robert Redford and Yalgoo Nikko an Endure 174D son.

“These bulls have a lot to offer the Hereford industry as stud sires,” he said.

Oldfield’s group of Angus bulls have lots to offer the Angus industry with two major sires being represented – the $160,000 Millah Murrah Paratrooper P15 and Karoo Black Pearl L125.

These bulls have been used in the industry for consistency of performance, and they are ET calves out of top cows.

“Join us for our sale on September 6, 2023 (inspection 11am, sale-o 1pm) or call me to chat about your herd and breeding objectives beforehand,” Peter said.

There will be some great opportunities for stud and commercial buyers at good value. The Rotary Club of Gunnedah will be providing a barbecue lunch. NEW VENUE – “Burnbrae”, 4096 Goolhi Road GOOLHI NSW 2380.

‘Beyond the Beef’ looks to the future More than 215 delegates from right across Australia and New Zealand converged on Tamworth to delve ‘Beyond the Beef’ at the recent Zoetis Angus National Conference.

With a theme focusing on the future of the beef industry and agriculture in general, delegates left Tamworth with an eye to future proofing their production systems and remaining at the forefront of the beef industry.

In welcoming everyone to the conference, Angus Australia president Erica Halliday (Ben Nevis Angus, NSW) said that growing up in an Angus family meant that her love of Angus started as a very small girl.

“We not only had a love for Angus, but a love for the beef

industry in general,” she said.

The thing that stood out for Erica growing up was not only the love of the breed, but the love of the people in the Angus breed.

“For me there has always been a greater Angus family and I have always felt a greater sense of belonging and what I am hoping for throughout this conference is that everyone has that sense of belonging with the Angus breed and knowing that you are all part of a greater Angus family.”

Erica described a vision for Angus Australia that will provide everyone with the skills and the knowledge so that they can start their own journey.

“Part of the conference is helping you develop your own skills, your own education, so that you

SAVE THE DATE

can go home and apply those to your own situation at home so you can develop your own unique Angus story.”

There were many highlights from the conference for Erica, but she summed up the experience by saying that, “I think probably it’s just the feel of the whole occasion.”

“I’ve just had so many people come up to me and just say the vibe and there has been a lot of talk about the Angus family and whether it’s just the end of COVID, whether it’s the launch of our new strategic plan and the general feeling that we’re getting back to the membership and embracing everyone in the breed, you know ‘Angus for every system’ it’s just been a phenomenal success.”

Improvements aplenty at Dalkeith AUCTIONS PLUS ONLINE SALE ONLY

Things have certainly improved for Dalkeith Poll Herefords and Herefords over the past four years.

Dalkeith now has a very select group of cows. Considering the wet season experienced this year the bulls have handled things quite well.

“We have a team of powerful bulls which have had no grain in their lives and have been on native pastures for most of their lives,” Antony Martin said.

“We have had them on a oat crop for the past two months and they have flown ahead since then.

“We have calved heifers again this year which will increase our bull numbers in 2025.

“The bull sale in 2024 will be slightly larger next year.”

Dalkeith’s 2023 bull sale will be as it was last year and will be a sale held by AuctionsPlus on Thursday, September 7.

Bulls will be available for inspecting any time between now and sale day.

“We will hold an open day on Saturday, August 20, 2023,” Antony said.

We have a team of powerful bulls which have had no grain in their lives and have been on native pastures for most of their lives.

ANTONY MARTIN “This day will be held at ‘Tangaratta’ and the bulls will be yarded.

“Lunch and morning tea will be provided.

“On sale day the bulls will be yarded for inspection, and we will have facilities for bidding on AuctionsPlus.”

Dalkeith’s super sire ACMR090 Dalkeith Randy has been collected and semen is available for sale.

This bull is a son of the toppriced bull in 2019 (Dalkeith Nipper N082 - sold to Hillary O’Leary).

Just recently a son of Nipper at the Remolea sale sold for the top price of $21,000 – a great result for Hilary.

Represented in this year’s bull sale will be eight sires again showing the use of a large genetic base in the Dalkeith herd.

As has been the practice over the last 20 odd years, most of these bulls have had a joining last year to heifers or cows some on loan and some to other breeds.

“A lot of bull breeders have told me this year they have had to feed their bulls grain or pellets to get them ready for sale, we have not changed our rules and no bull has seen

any grain whatsoever,” Antony said.

Dalkeith’s 53rd annual spring sale will be conducted online through AuctionsPlus on Thursday, September 7, from 1.30pm to 2.30pm.

Versatility in focus at Yeo Charolais

By Yeo Charolais Yeo Charolais is a small Charolais Stud approximately 24 kilometres north west of Gunnedah.

Our initial purchase of one standout bull and foundation herd of females from a wide range of Charolais Studs gave us an incredible and diverse scope of genetics.

Foundation females were purchased with CAF and PTIC to two Stud Sires. Our bulls are bred for versatile conditions. Sires are without a doubt crucial to any breeding program.

However, females are also just as important. Females are going to produce a healthy robust calf annually for 10 to 12 plus years.

Charolais females have outstanding maternal instincts. Beautifully sized framed heifers and cows mean ease of calving, minimal calving difficulties. Consider Charolais females for your commercial herd.

During February to June this year, from 13 calvings, 5 sets of twins were born. The current breeding herd is 37.

Our farm is set up for cell grazing with a laneway system for ease of stock movement giving paddocks time to rest. Cattle are quiet due to frequent shifts and handling.

Calves learn from an early age about gates and laneways.

Ease of stock movement means less stress for cattle and humans and is time efficient.

When we purchased the property in 2000, cell grazing was implemented and we began planting treelines and wildlife corridors.

Treelines and wildlife corridors benefit stock, farm production and the environment.

Tree corridors create a windbreak, shelter and shade.

Double boundary seven-metre width fence lines planted with native trees and shrubs also act as a buffer zone reducing farm bio-security risks.

Tree corridors improve farm production, soil health and are a refuge for a diverse range of wildlife including birds, pollinators and other beneficial insects, improving bio-diversity.

Livestock exclusion from

tree corridors has promoted revegetation and regeneration.

Livestock exclusion from dams also has health benefits for both stock and water quality.

The Charolais breed are known to be efficient converters during the cooler season and the hotter months. The white cattle handle the heat naturally. Bred, born, raised and grazed in paddocks naturally coping with natural environmental conditions. Charolais' sound performance, great temperament and extra yield will increase your profits.

Twenty-two registered stud bulls are available polled including red factor.

They are known for their great temperament and excellent bloodlines. The stud bulls are ready to work. Ideal stud, commercial, composite.

Twenty joined heifers – 16 registered and four unregistered – will be pregnancy tested late August.

Registered Stud Bull SIRE: YEO MOONSHINE. Homozygous Polled DNA tests completed so progeny can be

registered if required. Yard weaned heifers are available. Polled, including red factor 11 to 18 months.

On property inspections

welcome. JBAS 7.

Excellent offering at Fig Tree Park It is a busy time for Fig Tree Park Angus as the stud prepares for its 2023 Bull Sale and the opening of its new retail meat premises Top of the Range Meat Company.

Located at Wandsworth, between Guyra and Tingha, Fig Tree Park Angus will offer 40 rising yearling and two-year-old bulls for sale on-farm and online via Elite Livestock.

A fantastic line up of bulls will be on offer by breed leading AI sires from the USA/Canada (G A R Sure Fire, Spicklers Powerpoint, HF Alcatraz 60F and WR Full House) and Australia (Murdeduke Quarterback Q11, Clunie Range Plantation P392, Texas Iceman R725, Millah Murrah Paratrooper P15, and Topbos Leading Edge L292). Natural sires represented include Rennylea P519, Rennylea N144, Stoney Point Prevalent P048, Stoney Point Momentum M07, Stoney Point Richard R102 Lawsons Incredible L660, Lawsons Momentous R4051 and Glenmorgan Powerpoint Man R250.

The sale will take place at 1pm at "Strabanne" 9992 Guyra Road, Wandsworth NSW, 2365, with inspections on farm from 9am.

Meanwhile, owners Jason and Laura are also busily preparing for the grand opening of their new retail shopfront in Guyra.

Top of the Range Meat Company will operate as a retail butcher with the aim of expanding to online sales and deliveries.

“Our aim is to add value to our business and to evaluate the performance, yield and eating quality

of our cattle, and supply our customers with locally grown beef, lamb and pork products,” Jason said.

“The decision to open Top of the Range Meat Company stems from a shared passion and dream to see the end result of breeding decisions quantified in terms of yield and eating quality and provide consumers the paddock to plate experience.”

In the last three years they have grown the Fig Tree Park Angus yearling bull breeding program and have entered into the world of Wagyu, starting a small Fullblood Wagyu herd and F1 Wagyu operation using Door Key Wagyu genetics from recent Wagyu Hall of Fame Inductee Mr Lock Rogers over the Siddell family’s commercial Angus cattle.

Fig Tree Park Angus was established in 1999 by Stuart, Jennifer, Jason and Scott Siddell on the North Coast of New South Wales at McKees Hill, between Lismore and Casino, with eldest son Jason as stud principal. The stud name was derived from the beautiful Moreton Bay fig that the family’s home overlooked at Fig Tree Lane, McKees Hill.

In 2005, Stuart and Jennifer Siddell relocated the Fig Tree Park Angus stud and commercial herd to Glencoe on the Northern Tablelands of NSW where Stuart and Jennifer run their EU accredited commercial Angus and Angus x Hereford herd today.

In 2009, the Fig Tree Park Angus stud was relocated to Wandsworth

The foundation Angus females were purchased in 1999 from the Medlyn and Mundoo Angus herds with later acquisitions from Mundoo, Comfort Hill, Raff, Kansas, Aberdeen Estate, Coolarmagh, Barr G, Alumy Creek, Kilburnie, Dance Angus with recent acquisitions from Stoney Point Angus and

Sires have been purchased and used within the herd from Raff, The Grange, Mundoo, Coolarmagh, Lawsons, Glenmorgan and Rennylea Angus Studs. Maternal strength has been one of the key focuses of the Fig Tree Park Angus herd. Since inception, Fig Tree has tried to breed females that are fertile, quiet, easy to handle and produce calves that perform on farm and in the feedlot. The foundation herd was established through the

purchase of females from outcross Angus genetics and cow families that have been influential within the Angus breed.

Jason believes longevity is a key component of maternal strength and Fig Tree’s females need to be structurally sound, calve unassisted and raise a calf each year to remain in the herd. Recently, through the increased use of AI and key sire purchases from Lawsons, Rennylea and Glenmorgan Angus, Fig Tree has continuously strived to improve calving ease, lower birth weight and select animals with fertility, EMA and IMF using BREEDPLAN. Selection for visual muscling in combination with the EMA estimated breeding values has occurred in an attempt to increase yield in combination with eating quality to ensure Fig Tree Park Angus cattle perform within future value based payment systems.

Productivity boost drives Glenlea Charolais program Glenlea Charolais was established in 1973 with the simple vision to produce more kilogram of beef from its cows and existing land base using Charolais genetics.

That productivity boost still drives the Glenlea program today.

From modest beginnings Glenlea Charolais found innovative pathways to grow through good and tough times.

Glenlea’s plans are to establish a base in North Queensland in the near future.

Glenlea is now a major Charolais seedstock producer in Australia as Glenlea Beef with the goal to grow more and cement its position as a Charolais seedstock producer of influence, supplying large lines of quality bulls to Australian beef producers.

In 2021 Glenlea purchased the entire herd of Fairfield Charolais females from Lindsey and Belinda Hindle to add to its growing Charolais cow herd now numbering 1000 cows.

Glenlea Beef’s future aspiration is to grow to be Australia’s largest Charolais seedstock business and supply large numbers of bulls throughout Queensland and NSW to its existing and new clients.

Glenlea’s cow herd is located across several properties in sub-tropical coastal far north NSW, an environment that quickly finds out any poor doing cattle, only the best doing females are retained to enter the herd.

During the last 18 months Glenlea has added a large herd base in central western NSW at Coonabarabran.

Three bull sales are on the calendar again this year in Winton (held in July), Clermont and Roma, all in Queensland and paddock sales in NSW. Our performance recording and genetic testing is a key part of Glenlea’s growth.

In 2023 Glenlea has nearly 300 bulls to offer at our sales and in the paddock!

Stud cattle are Glenlea’s primary business and selling bulls that add value to clients’ bottom line, and the entire supply chain is what Glenlea strives for in everything it does with their cattle.

After sales service is taken seriously and Glenlea backs its stock with 100 per cent guarantee.

Glenlea bulls have thrived in all western locations having been breed on the coast.

Feedback has been very positive with repeat buying the benchmark, Glenlea attributes this easy adaptability to having generationally bred cattle with natural doing ability as the number one selection criteria, with performance recording and all the other selection and breeding tools Glenlea uses being applied after that.

Genetic base Glenlea has a blend of many bloodlines that meet the criteria.

A number of Glenlea cow families have origins going back over 40 years, with descendants not only directly in the Glenlea herd but many studs throughout the country.

The Glenlea herd is now as diverse as the breed in Australia, with a blend of many bloodlines and different phenotypes to produce an Australian type Charolais.

Glenlea has degree of type variation, which is necessary with the range of markets and geographic footprint, from higher growth and yield types for northern markets over bos indicus cows to more moderate, early maturing types that suit more southern markets, but all assessed through the same process for all economic traits.

Glenlea’s breeding strategy is to produce powerful performance cattle in a medium to moderate frame score with a complete carcass.

By that Glenlea means above average yield, EMA, fat cover and IMF per cent.

Measuring birthweights to be able to assist Glenleabull clients

to make the best selections for their operation and maintaining calving ease through BW and early gestation length.

Maternal strength focus on fertility, milking ability with great udders and moderate sized teats for longevity.

While Glenlea is primarily a terminal breed, in northern markets especially, Charolais x heifers are retained in there 1000s, so as seedstock producers Glenlea must always have its customers and in turn their customers in the front of mind in breeding decisions, as those decisions ripple down the supply chain and leave big impacts, both positive and negative.

Polled genetics have progress in the Glenlea breed to match horned bloodlines for every economic trait.

The Glenlea herd still has a number of horned females and these are joined to homozygous polled sires. 98 per cent of Glenlea calves born in the last five years are polled, many homozygous.

Ben Nevis Angus leading the way Ben Nevis Angus has led the way with the use of yearling bulls in the Australian beef industry for more than 30 years and believes passionately their use is the key to increased farm profitability.

Yearling bulls give their clients a bigger bang for their buck in terms of proven lower incidence of breakdown, a longer working life and more total calves in their life reducing the cost per calf.

Most importantly is the extra 30 calves that yearling bulls get in the first year of their working life at 12-14 months of age when they are learning to service cows while they are still young, light and agile.

Not only is this an added bonus to the total calf crop they will get in their life, but also safer for your cows and heifers as they are less likely to injure them also.

According to Stuart Halliday BVSv MVSt the yearling bulls are easier to manage both in the bull mob and in and out of cows.

When asked why, he explained that yearling bulls fight less because they are out working at a time when frustration and hormones kick in instead of being run in a bull mob to grow out to two years of age.

Stuart said: “As a result of putting the bulls to work as yearlings we believe that they don’t learn the bullying, fighting and riding behaviour that is rife in older bull mobs and they usually take with them to their new home. We get

overwhelming feedback from our clients that our bulls used first as yearlings are quieter, and more manageable their whole life and less likely to fight with other bulls so less likely to injure themselves between seasons as well.”

Yearlings do take longer to grow to their full potential as they are working and growing at the same time but this is fine as long as they have a good paddock and have the appropriate animal health treatments.

There is only one rule and that is
