Local growers utilising sunflowers as an alternate crop SPRING has indeed sprung in the Burdekin, with a crop of a different kind enthralling locals and tourists alike.

Sunflowers have readily become an alternate crop to sugarcane, proving to be another source of income for farmers looking to diversify.

Home Hill seems to be the sunflower mecca, with several residents taking to growing the sunny crop.

Fredericksfield resident Janet Delaney had used sunflowers in replacement of a sugarcane crop when the cane didn’t take off.

Her 100-day crop will be used for birdseed and other pet foods when harvested.

“We’ve had a few people come out and look at them, have photos taken. People just love them,” Mrs Delaney said.

“It’s been nice to share the love and some brightness in peoples’ lives.”

Ian Shepparton is also growing sunflowers this year, for the second time as a grower.

Along with sugarcane and corn, it’s been a busy year on his farm at Carstairs.

His crops of black sunflowers will be used for animal food such as horses, unlike the grey stripe variety used for birdseed.

The now-mature crops which span over 70 acres, was planted in July and is expected to be harvested in November.

For Ian, there are two reasons he chose to grow sunflowers.

“We were planting corn before sunflowers, I’ve got the same amount of area in

corn. The rest would have been grown into corn, but I couldn’t get a contract.

Sunflowers I could get a contract for.”

The second is the Fall armyworm, which is the new grub that’s come in and is creating a lot of issues.”

The armyworm hasn’t affected sunflowers as it does corn, where the bug burrows into corn cobs and kernels to feed.

“The corn is the attractant; when you’ve got corn, you don’t have troubles with the armyworm in anything else.”

Like any other agricultural crop, growing sunflowers can have its challenges.

“We’re trialling an attractant, which is sprayed every 36 metres, and puts a sugary substance on the leaves and has an insecticide

Dave Muir presents the donation to Michael Blakey

BEING part of the community is vital for our local Rotary Club of Ayr, always there to lend a hand when needed.

Recently the group of volunteers offered their services at the Don River Dash, hosted by the Burdekin Offroaders Inc. Mastering the event’s COVID-safe requirements, Rotary’s presence at the whopper weekend made the dash possible.

“Without their help, the event would not have been able to go ahead,” Dave Muir, Secretary of Burdekin Offroaders, said.

“Our club is made up of mainly competitors, so there aren’t too many left on the sideline.

It’s great to have the group’s assistance for events like this.”

Recognising the Rotary Club’s efforts, The Offroaders donated to the club, which will be put to good use throughout our community.

Rotary Club of Ayr President Michael Blakey said Rotary members were happy to help out and ensure the event went ahead successfully.

in it. That tries to attract the moth to eat it and die.”

Sunflowers prove to be a successful alternate crop, with the ability to be grown two seasons per year, a result of the perfect Burdekin climate.

As for being a tourist attraction, locals have flocked to see the somewhat uncommon harvest.

“People just love them, they just go crazy,” Mr Shepparton said.

“I enjoy it, people drive down here, and I’ll try to pull up and see them. Everyone’s been good when they come and see the flowers.”

They have been a hit, with many people visiting his farm and sharing their experience on social media.

“One lady came from Townsville, we’ve had doctors from Townsville to come to see them, nurses. Plenty of people sharing them on Instagram, so I’m told. It gets around.”

Although nearing the end of their time, this season’s sunflowers have been a great success.

“I love it, just sharing them with the community,” Mr Shepparton said.

Burdekin Roosters score with election funding A much-welcomed boost for our sports community Hayden Menso

ONE of the Burdekin’s community sports clubs is set to benefit from an ALP government commitment, post-election.

Making the announcement with members of Burdekin Junior Rugby League on Thursday 15th October, ALP candidate for Burdekin Michael Brunker announced funding worth $1million to go towards vital club upgrades.

The funding is guaranteed if Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and Labor are re-elected in the general election on 31st October.

Rugby Park, located on Wickham Street in Ayr, needs facility upgrades, with existing amenities being there for over 50 years.

The funding is part of the Palaszczuk government’s Recovery Plan and will create jobs during the upgrades.

Michael Brunker says the club’s facilities are the ones he used when playing football himself.

“These were the same sort of showers that I used 30 years ago, so it will be a great contribution to the Burdekin community.”

The funding will provide modern facilities to benefit local players, visiting teams and spectators.

“The money will be used to construct four-player dressing rooms, showers and toilets, a new office, referee’s room, a first aid room, men’s’ and ladies’ toilets, and an accessible toilet as well.”

“It’ll be a great facility here for the Burdekin,” Mr Brunker said.

UPDATE New Road Lines Newly-painted double lines have been placed on Rita Island RoadIvanhoe Road-Hobson Road intersection.

The new lines are a reminder for motorists to obey the lines by not overtaking on the treacherous stretch of road. It is also time to be aware of traffic in that area during the crushing season.

Recycling In The Home

We’re being encouraged to “Check it! Before you chuck it!”

The new Australasian Recycling Label system includes information about what to do with lids, films, soft plastics and cardboard. For more information, visit recyclingnearyou.com. au/arl/

Burdekin Theatre Upgrades Welcoming the announcement were Jarrod Smith (JRL Vice-President), Michael Brunker (ALP candidate for Burdekin), Melissah Lammon (Secretary), Jason Williams (President) and Sara Smith (Grants Coordinator)

The improvements will be of benefit to the local sports community well into the future.

“Not only modernising the club but with the introduction of girls playing rugby league as well, we need to make sure we keep up with the times.

We’ve got a hard-working committee here, and they should be rewarded for their efforts.”

With sport being a quintessential aspect of the Burdekin lifestyle, receiving government backing is a welcome boost.

“Families that play together stay together. The more we can encourage kids to play sports, the better. It’s great for a family environment, great for mental health, and it’s great for fitness. Some of the days here when all clubs are playing, there’s hundreds

and hundreds and hundreds of kids running around here,” Mr Brunker said.

Mr Brunker congratulated the Rooster’s dedication to the club.

“When you look at the improvements they’ve made as a local committee, it’s great to be able to support some go-getters,” he said.

Jason Williams, Burdekin Junior Rugby League President, welcomed the announcement.

“This is massive. A project of this size is something that is really beyond us, in terms of our financial ability, a grant process or a government or council loan,” Mr Williams said.

“This truly is the jewel in the crown for us.”

The new facilities will be of benefit in hosting carnivals and events.

“The Shane Muspratt Cup, which is nearly a thirty-team carnival, attracts teams from all around the state, up to 600 kids take part, and we have 2-3,000 people through the gate on that weekend. To have those guys come here and utilise our facilities is a great achievement for us.”

The expansion will grow opportunities for the muchloved club.

“We can look forward to maybe playing Intrust Super Cup games here, which has always been on the radar, but once again the lack of facilities would pull us up there. We host Bowen as their away games here, so the Bowen region will get to enjoy these facilities as well.”

Mr Williams also said the rugby league clubs were welldeserving of the additional support.

“I want to thank all involved, in particular, our junior committee; they’re relentless in their work and well-driven people. The involvement that senior rugby league has had in getting this started as well, we thank them very much.”

Further to the announcement, incumbent LNP candidate Dale Last over the weekend also pledged one million dollars to the project.

“By supporting young players, female players, volunteers and people with a disability, you build a stronger and healthier community,” Mr Last said.

The Burdekin Theatre has begun a $1.05 million refurbishment.

Contractors will complete new roofing and wall cladding in the first phase.

A section of Graham St, adjacent to the library and theatre, has been closed off while works are completed, expected to re-open on Friday 11 December.

Bones Identified

Human bones recently found near Groper Creek have been identified as “historical remains”. Found by fishermen near the mouth of the creek, a Queensland Police spokesman confirmed Police had cleared the bones. It is unclear whether investigations are continuing into the remains.

Art exhibition with a 2020 difference

IN A YEAR like no other, many local clubs have been hit hard

by COVID-19 restrictions and event cancellations.

Our Burdekin Art Society is no different, having to rethink its annual exhibition for 2020.

Usually held at the Burdekin Theatre foyer in conjunction with the Burdekin Water Festival Mardi Gras, the exhibition is being held on a smaller, more personal scale this year.

Burdekin Art Society will hold the display from Thursday 19th to Sunday 22nd of November, this year located at their clubhouse at 154 Macmillan Street, Ayr. It will be a perfect opportunity to not only browse the fantastic local works but also pick up a great gift for Christmas.

Society Vice-President June Pola said it had been a tough year for the group.

“We closed down completely for about four months, and even now people are finding it hard to get back into it,” she said.

“The crowds that come from the Water Festival to our exhibition, we have a huge number of people, and we often sell a lot of paintings and raffle tickets. But none of that’s happened.”

However, they’re back in action, meeting each Tuesday morning for a social session of painting and laughs, and hold student sessions Tuesday afternoons.

The society is making use of a much-welcomed grant in getting back up and running.

“We’ve just recently got a Flying Arts School grant for $4,000. We’re able to purchase more easels, paints and canvases to use and hold more workshops. We’re quite excited about it,” June said.

The group is beginning to plan its fiftieth anniversary in 2021.

“We’re hoping at the exhibition next year to make it a bigger affair and invite everybody ever involved with the Art Society,” President Luisa DelleBaite said.

THIS WEEK’S Shoutout goes to Ben Moran, of Ben Moran Engineering. His family and community clubs nominated him for regularly donating his time, skills and products to benefit the local community.

He recently designed, supplied and donated the trophies for the Ayr Motorcycle Club Championship.

“Not only did he fit our job into his busy schedule, but he has also donated his time and the materials he used to

A lawn time coming

Hayden Menso

FOR the first time in 70 years, local Ayr bowlers have taken out the top title in the Premier Cup. Four players from the Ayr Bowling Club recently took to the greens of Wangaratta Bowls Club, competing in the North Queensland event.

Beryl Cornford, Heather Jorgensen, Pam Power and Irene Wilson were chosen to represent Ayr, competing against eight other teams over three-day event from 8 – 10 October.

The team was successful in knocking out the competition, taking out the win for the Burdekin for the very first time in the competition’s history.

Competitor Irene Wilson said it was an exciting win.

“It was great to get the win, we were all a bit excited,” she said.

“It was a tough competition, because each team was made up of the top four players from the club.”

The competition is the biggest in North Queensland for ladies’ bowls, and with COVID-19 restrictions in place, the win was even sweeter.

“It was the first major competition for the year, with all the COVID restrictions, so it was a pretty big event,” Ms Wilson said.

The club is very proud of the team’s achievements, and will hold the event next year.

“It was very good to bring the shiny new trophy home for the club” the ladies said.

Wooods News staff Brenda Lennox and Therese Aplin, who have worked together for the past fourteen years

CHANGING with the times is all part of business, especially if you’ve been working with one for 31 years.

That’s the story of Brenda Lennox, a local dedicated to the community since beginning work at Woods News on 26th September 1989.

Brenda is moving into retirement next Tuesday, 27th October, to do more camping and travel with her husband.

Beginning at the newsagent’s last location on Queen Street, it was then owned by Vince and Deanne Watson, before going through several owners over the years.

“It was a tiny little shop, near where the hairdresser is now across from Woolworths.

But very busy. There were no fans or air-conditioning, and it was so small. When we moved to where we are now it was a really good change,” Brenda said.

Also, something to keep up with is changing technology.

“There have been lots of changes… from lucky casket tickets, buying Lotto’s has changed, and moving to use computers has been the biggest one,” Mrs Lennox said.

“I’d have preferred to keep handwriting everything because I love bookkeeping.

But you have to move with the times.”

Brenda, who still has the store’s original handwritten ledgers, recounts how they were used for deliveries.

“There was a book just for Jarvisfield, as we delivered out there, and each customer had a folder. Everything they bought was written on the page, and that’s how it was all recorded. We used it during the floods when the bridges went over.”

Mrs Lennox says she will miss the job but looks forward to some time off.

“I was in charge of magazines, novels and customer accounts, but also out the front sometimes.

There have been a lot of customers over the years, and I’ve got good relationships with a lot of them. I’ll miss them the most,” she said.

“Some customers still come in and say ‘Are you still here, Brenda, after all these years?!’ It’s been good, and I’ve enjoyed it,” she said.

The Conversation Breast Cancer Awareness Month STEPHANIE Murphy was just 12 years old when her mother lost her five year battle with breast cancer. At 22 she was diagnosed herself.

Now she’s sharing her story and working with the Breast Cancer Network Australia to raise awareness for other young women this Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

“Together, my family and I saw how cruel cancer can be. When I got diagnosed myself my family feared the worst.”

“They saw how much it defeated my mum, taking away her strength, energy and life. They weren’t prepared to watch it do the same to their sister, partner and daughter.

Young women are not who you would typically associate with breast cancer, a disease primarily affecting women over 50.

But Stephanie is testament to the fact that women of all ages still need to be careful and aware of the risks urging them to attend breast screenings if they notice any changes in their breasts.

burdekinlocal.com.au

Stephanie Murphy was surprised to find herself diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 22, finding a lump on her breast 10 years after her mother’s passing from the disease.

Marina Trajkovich marina.trajkovich@burdekinlocal.com.au

“Being a young 22-year-old, I was ready to smash what needed to be done, supporting my family who were scared to watch,” she says.

“My dad couldn’t bring himself to come to my chemotherapy sessions, let alone say the words ‘chemo,’ or ‘cancer.’”

“My partner who had never seen anyone sick before put aside his fears and stepped up to support me.”

Her niece, who was three at the time still makes her promise she won’t get sick again and asks about the time her aunt had tubes coming out of her in the hospital.

“It wasn’t easy on any of my family. We were scared but we stuck together and helped each other through it day by day.”

Three years since Stephanie was first diagnosed, she reflects on her recovery journey which has included fertility treatments, induced menopause, chemotherapy and seven surgeries, including a double mastectomy and reconstruction.

“Married life has been amazing. Getting to marry my number one support system, he has never stopped looking after me. He’s always ready to drop everything to make sure my health comes first,” she says.

“COVID was a bit of a scare when it came around. I knew that it hadn’t been that long since going through chemo and surgeries.”

She became involved with the Breast Cancer Network Australia after doing her own research and struggling to find answers about her disease.

“I was able to attend information sessions and

watch webinars, bringing back information for my family, which a lot of the time eased their mind,” she says.

Access to renal dialysis facilities is an increasing problem in regional communities with people travelling several hours, multiple times a week to receive life saving treatment.

Marina Trajkovich ANGELO Loizou wakes up early most mornings, mentally preparing for the drive to Townsville where he will receive renal dialysis treatment before beginning work on the sugar cane farm.

He sits in the dialysis chair for up to four hours, needles coming from his arm connected to the machine that perform the life saving procedure three times a week.

He says the time taken to travel and receive dialysis is a consistent stress he’s become accustomed to since starting treatment in June, a regular procedure that is taking a significant toll on his work and family life.

With his wife Kelli Loizou, he is advocating for greater access to dialysis in the hospital at Home Hill, currently at full capacity serving eight patients on dialysis machines.

“You look at our economy and what the rural industries contribute to the Australian economy but are we going to get the same access to health care?” says Kelli Loizou.

“I would think that there’d be no person in a big urban centre like Brisbane who would travel 700kms a week for health care which is almost what we’re doing,” she says.

Angelo has a rare genetic disease affecting his kidneys that has been passed down from family in Cyprus, the first gene of its kind detected in Australia.

His father and uncle travelled to Townsville for dialysis multiple times a week for years before advocating for the first renal dialysis facilities to be established in Home Hill.

“We had to take dad to Townsville three times a week, there were some times in the wet season we had to put him on a plane or a chopper because the roads used to be blocked,” says Angelo.

Kelli Loizou has been in contact with Dale Last, the Burdekin’s political candidate with the LNP and the hospital at Home Hill and Townsville about increasing the access to dialysis services.

“Basically they tell us categorically that they understand our distress but they’re working to capacity so they don’t have the facilities to take on any more patients,” says Kelli Loizou.

“The infrastructure is there but you need trained dialysis nurses, it is a specialised industry so you need trained dialysis nurses to do that,” she says.

The family has been recommended at home dialysis treatment however decided not to pursue that option due to the nature of Angelo’s job and the consequentially high risk of infection.

Mr Kieran Keyes, chief executive of the Townsville Hospital and Health Service says that the hospital is monitoring demand for dialysis and in the Burdekin.

“People in renal failure do not and cannot wait for care,” he says.

“The care provided at Townsville University Hospital is incredibly specialised, requiring purpose-built infrastructure and care delivered by specialist renal clinicians.”

Dr RT Lewandowski, the president of the Rural Doctors Association of Queensland (RDAQ) says that access to renal dialysis facilities in regional hospitals is a pressing issue.

“Patients requiring dialysis should not have to leave their rural homes to live in regional centres or travel long distances three times a week to receive life saving treatment that could be readily provided close to home.”

“The limiting factors in providing these services include cost, physical infrastructure, and local staff availability. However, there is certainly evidence that it can be done and done well,” he says.

“It is no small investment but one that pays tremendous dividends in quality of life.”

Marina Trajkovich marina.trajkovich@burdekinlocal.com.au

Can you tell me a bit about growing up in the Burdekin and what that was like? Do you think that upbringing has had an impact on you as a person, artist or businesswoman?

As a child I spent a lot of time with my Nonna, Aurora Minuzzo and my Nana, Cathy Quagliata, both very creative women. Between the two and also being slightly isolated on the farms, I don’t think there was a craft I didn’t get to lay my hands on!

Brianna Minuzzo is the talented milliner and designer behind Moh Deest, creating fashionable fascinators and headwear that has been turning heads on race days in Australia since 2017.

Her delicate and sophisticated designs reflect her creative flair through line and texture in technically challenging sculptural pieces she creates from her Townsville studio.

Growing up on farms in Clare and Airville, the 26 year old’s business is growing, her bespoke creations nominated for various Millinery Awards and shipped to clients all around the world, from Israel to Singapore and New Zealand.

She spoke with Burdekin Local News to tell us what she’s been up to and gave advice on creating the perfect race day outfit.

Beading, scrapbooking, painting, fabric collages, up-styling furniture, you name it! 17ish years later, my Nana still brings out the nativity scene we made together every Christmas. It wouldn’t impress a single eye today but the memory of us creating that wonky cardboard barn with a star tactically disguising a torch sticking out the top is priceless. I believe these two incredible women and living on the farm impacted me greatly and who I have become as an artist.

As quite a niche and artistic aspect of fashion what do you enjoy most about creating your beautiful hats and fascinators? How did you fall into this aspect of the business?

Personally I am not super educated in the fashion world. My closet mainly consists of shorts, jeans, and tee-shirts.

I am drawn mainly to the art of millinery through design, technique and using my hands to create something from nothing.

Not knowing how to do something is the greatest motivator. I started to try and make my own millinery before learning a single skill, thinking that it couldn’t be ‘that hard’. Soon enough I noticed that I couldn’t bring what I had in vision to life.

Millinery was almost like a secret that you could only get in on if you actually attended a class or sourced a teacher. So I did, and never looked back. Admiring the end product of what my hands and mind created is the most enjoyable part for me.

Where did you learn the craft?

I started learning the art of millinery after attending a two day millinery workshop in Rockhampton with Waltraud Reiner. Waltraud invited me to come to Melbourne and work under her wing while creating a Spring collection alongside her and two other milliners.

The four of us met everyday in Waltraud’s home studio for two months to block, hand stitch, and discuss every minor detail so that it had purpose.

Every hat was a metaphor for different stages in life. The collection was called “Talking Hats’’ which also raised money for mental health organisations through “Hats for Happiness.”

It was these two months that I had the privilege to throw myself into intense, hands-on learning which gave me the confidence to continue experimenting and practicing the art of millinery when returning to North Queensland.

There will always be more to learn and new materials to experiment with, which is exciting!

What are some challenges you face as a designer and businesswoman and how have you learnt to overcome them?

Being a milliner, I’ve noticed I’ve been thrown into the world of fashion by no choice of my own which I do find overwhelming at times. There are trends, different levels of fashion, styling, event appropriateness. So much to consider that on most occasions I just turn off all of those considerations and ‘just make’. The pull between ‘artist’ and ‘businesswoman’ has been and is still my biggest challenge. However my heart always says artist.

What inspires you as a designer? And how do you find inspiration for new designs?

There’s nothing more inspiring than an excited client eager to bring their outfit to life. Whether they are chasing a custom design or have seen something ready-made that sparks something in them.

That’s my most true motivator.

However when I’m making for no one in particular, it’s the materials that inspire me. Millinery is different in the way that on most occasions you need to be educated to work with the material and not against it.

Every millinery material has limitations and a certain range of ways it can be used. The biggest lesson I’ve learnt is to allow things to just form. It’s kind of magical.

What are your tips for pulling together a stylish outfit for race day? And what are your tips for picking the perfect millinery?

Avoid searching for inspiration through social media and the internet. It’s likely that your own personal style could be compromised by something you scroll past. Instead take an hour from your day and try some clothing on at your local boutique.

Pick something that makes you feel good, because that’s the most important thing! From here you can start to visualise how you would like to accessorise your outfit and make it your own.

Keep in mind that everything doesn’t need to be matchy-matchy.

This is where your personal style will shine through!

There is lots to consider when choosing millinery. Proportion and face shape, style of outfit and neck line, season and weather appropriateness. All of these your milliner can help with, so converse with your milliner if you are unsure. Most of all, choose something that you love!

If you choose just because it matches your outfit you probably won’t appreciate it when it arrives at your doorstep.

In the meantime, prepare dressing.

To a small mixing bowl, add hummus, spicy mustard, lemon zest + juice, minced capers + brining juice, minced garlic, salt, pepper, maple syrup, and olive oil (optional) and stir to combine.

If needed, add a little water to thin until pourable and whisk until creamy and smooth (see photo).

Taste and adjust flavour as needed, adding more salt and pepper to taste, lemon juice for acidity, lemon zest for vibrant citrus flavour, minced garlic for zing, capers for “sea” flavour, maple syrup for sweetness, or mustard for spice.

Next, prepare remaining ingredients, including the romaine lettuce, parsley, and shredded carrots.

Then add all to a serving platter or bowl and top with sweet potatoes and nutritional yeast (optional).

BURDEKIN Christian College recently held its Colour Fun Run for 2020 on September 11 and was a fun-filled experience for the whole school community.

The afternoon was full of colour and laughs and was all about encouraging all students to be fit and healthy.

Also a school fundraiser, over $7,103 was raised by students and families, with Year 7 student Byron Sutcliffe being the highest fundraiser with over $1,000. As a special incentive, the class who raised the most money was Year 2, who won a chance to colour their teacher, Mrs Stockdale.

Special thanks go out to the amazing Mrs Crowther who coordinated the fun run.

It was fun for all across the college, with the little learners at the Early Learning Centre even having their mini colour fun run.

Local schools dig agricultural boost Hayden Menso

AGRICULTURE, farming, and lifestyle education are all essential aspects of growing up in the Burdekin.

North Queensland schools will share in $4 million to help give students the skills they need closer to home, with the Local Schools Local Jobs initiative from the Queensland Government.

Home Hill State High School will benefit, with the development of practical studies in and outside the classroom.

“Home Hill State High will receive $500,000 to support the areas of agriculture, hospitality and digital skills and training,” ALP candidate for Burdekin Michael Brunker said.

“This will be done by upgrading the school’s

digital technology facilities to improve network access, extra agricultural infrastructure including sheds and fencing and upgrading the teaching kitchen to a commercial standard.”

Home Hill State High School’s Dig INN Plot is thriving, with students given a chance to be involved in agriculture in their studies.

“Agriculture is regarded as an essential service and our Ag program also supported by the Department of Agriculture and Farmers for the Future, and continues to be the backbone in providing various opportunities to students,” the school has said.

“We are currently using modern agricultural examples where we are making the connections back to our

industries and the people, training and qualifications required to work in these areas.”

Bowen State High School will also receive a cut of the funds, a perfect opportunity for the coastal town.

“Bowen High will receive $1.4 million for the construction of an aquaculture facility so students can learn the skills to support the growth of this new industry,” Mr Brunker said.

The funding will be a perfect complement to aquaculture developments at Guthalungra farm, set to be one of the biggest in Queensland.

“We’re linking schools with the industries that surround them. It’s a progression where the kids can get taught at school, and then go into the industry,” Mr Brunker said.

HHSHS students working on the agricultural plot

Learning opportunity offers future insight Burdekin Catholic High School Year 12 student Georgina Mallon shares her experience Georgina Mallon JAMES Cook University and The Ville Resort and Casino invited students from around the region to participate in the inaugural JCU Heroes in Business Programs.

Nineteen students in Year 11 and Year 12 from Rockhampton, Mount Isa, Mackay, Charters Towers, Ayr, Ingham and Townsville were able to explore careers in Marketing, Human Resources, Events Management, Finance, Law and Tourism.

On Monday, 12th and Tuesday 13th October, I had

the chance to gain insight as a future JCU Business/Commerce student graduate.

The event included sensational discussions from alumni - all proof that hard work pays off. After seeing the program in an email sent by my career advisor, I took a leap and took on the application. I wrote why I should be selected and then moved forward to the interview phase, where I was called by JCU student services.

A week later, I was successful in getting into the program.

I was most interested in the financial management and advisory (finance) seminar,

Home Hill State High School’s Dig INN is growing momentum in agriculture studies

as it resonated with my future aspirations. However, all of the seminars were thoughtprovoking in their own way.

James Cook University provided a great experience across both days; all the staff were friendly and shared their experience of their business degree.

Overall, in previously gaining an early offer into a Bachelor of Commerce at JCU in Townsville, the program reinforces my aspirations of finding success in business and helping clients achieve their financial goals.

On Wednesday the 30th of September, five Year 10 students from Burdekin Catholic High School attended the Engineering Link Project, hosted by James Cook University in Townsville. The aim of this project was to show that senior school STEM subjects are fun, rewarding and relevant and lead to fulfilling careers in engineering and science.

Students selected two engineering disciplines that they were interested in (Civil, Environmental, Mechanical, or Electrical) and attended two 3-hour sessions working in these areas. We received a model problem and in groups considered the problem, tested materials, and completed a proposal to be checked by a professional engineer. These sessions gave us a chance to consolidate what areas of engineering we would like to study and introduced us to different branches that we had not yet considered.

We enjoyed working with professional engineers on practical projects that applied mathematics and science. These workshops also provided us with more realistic workplace situations in non-traditional classroom settings.

SCORING A TOUCH WITH BAY-WATCH The Burdekin Area Youth Watch has had an incredible impact on the community over the years, due in no small part to the dedication of its founders.

Gerald Heneway has been a Police Liaison Officer for 22 years.

Marina Trajkovich

BEFORE GERALD and Ollie Henaway started the Burdekin Area Youth Watch program, crime was rife in the Burdekin.

Now, 30 years on since its inception in 1991, the program has seen dramatic change, becoming an integral and thriving hub of activity and learning for indigenous youth in the community.

“The crime was horrible here. There was a group of indigenous members of the community, we all came together to look at why this was happening,” says Ollie Henaway, the co-founder of the Burdekin Area Youth Watch.

“We knew there was a need in the community, so we started a small group of people. We’d come together and have a barbecue and invite the kids to come and have a game of basketball. We’ve been going ever since,” she says.

BAY-Watch has grown substantially since then, significantly lowering crime rates in the Burdekin by providing a healthy space for kids to come together and engage with different sports activities and mentoring programs.

Ollie says that the sense of community is incredibly strong, with whole families getting involved in weekly events.

“You can have as many youth groups and whatever you have, sometimes to get it to work you’ve got to have that relationship. One thing Gerald and I have with the community is that we know how to connect, we’ve built that relationship with the families.

“They come and have a bit of fun, it’s time out for mum and dad, nanny and it’s also a time for them to mingle together. It’s good for their mind, body, spirit, the lot,” she says.

The organisation is mainly involved with helping disadvantaged families, and her role as the Community Education Counsellor of Ayr State High School enables her to reach out to children whose families may be struggling and invite them along.

“They’re not only connected to their culture, but they’re also being connected in other ways. Because when you’re doing sports, you’ve got to connect with your referee, you’ve got to do teamwork. They’re learning those things, and it affects them holistically.”

“We’re all family here,” Ollie says.

WHEN I FIRST STARTED THERE WERE AT LEAST THREE OR FOUR BREAK-INS EVERY DAY Gerald Henaway Her husband, Gerald Henaway is the Chairperson of Burdekin Area Youth Watch, using his 22 years of experience as a Police Liaison Officer to seek out families in need, particularly those impacted by domestic violence or involved with crime.

“When I first started there were at least three or four breakins every day,” says Gerald.

He adds that he has seen first hand the incredible impact the organisation has had on families and the intergenerational effect of creating these relationships in the community.

“We’ve got really good role models who work with these kids,” he says.

In addition to the sports days, Gerald is involved with Juvenile Justice programs in Townsville and programs tackling unemployment, teaching new skills and encouraging a positive work ethic.

Despite setbacks during COVID restrictions, he is hoping that the sporting activities regain momentum and can expand to involve programs in Charters Towers and Townsville.

“We want to try to encourage others, and it’s good for these kids too, they meet new friends.”

Update: Haughton River Floodplain on the road ahead

One of our major local infrastructure projects, the Haughton River Floodplain Upgrade, is now in its second half of production.

Hayden Menso IN recent updates, The Infrastructure Group said it is expecting that traffic will be travelling on new parts of the Bruce Highway in mid2021.

The upgrade will see 13.5km of the Bruce between Horseshoe Lagoon and Palm Creek replaced, widened and redeveloped to limit the potential damage caused by flooding and weather events.

The core of the upgrade is the replacement of the Haughton River bridge, now more than 60 per cent complete.

Passers-by can see the base of the construction platform, raised one metre above the existing bridge, meaning the bridge itself will be much higher.

Also included are two new overpasses over existing cane-tramway crossings, four new bridges and the realignment of the reed beds to improve safety.

With the final T girder now in place and substructure complete, it is expected the new bridge will be finished by April next year, weather permitting.

The project uses a unique form of foam stabilised bitumen (FSB), to create a more well-bound and longer-lasting road.

The four-layer road consists of sub-grade base, foam bitumen base layer, asphalt binder and then topped with an asphalt surface layer.

To date, approximately 60,000 tonnes of

the FSB pavement has been laid across the highway.

The project has been of great economic benefit, with a local expenditure of approximately $104,000,000 at the end of September, with $20 million of that spent in the Burdekin Shire.

That amount does not include ancillary expenditure and worker expenditure.

Project Manager Campbell McCall said at the Burdekin Industry Breakfast progress was going well, and that the new Haughton River bridge will be sturdier than the last.

Utilising new tubular steel piles, the bridge will be less susceptible to earthquake damage.

In a provided statement, TIG said that “Tubular steel piles consist of a 23mm thickwalled steel tube and a reinforced concrete shaft which extends well below the worst design scour depth. Tubular steel piles aren’t required to be driven to competent rock; rather pile capacity is achieved through friction between the steel tube and the soils, commencing below the base of the scour level.”

The new 140m-long Haughton River bridge will be built to the latest Bridge Earthquake Design Standard, and will also be the first TMR Queensland road bridge using tubular steel piles with a concrete reinforced shaft.

Donation keeps farmers in mind

Living on the land is challenging, especially in modern times, farming has become more complex than ever before.

Making the donation were PCGO Directors Charles Quagliata, Max Musumeci, Michael Roncato, Ross Romeo (CORES) and Bruce Davies

GROWING, harvesting and selling crops to make a living has been a mainstay of Burdekin life for generations; however, changes in the industry are re-shaping the impacts of the profession.

Pioneer Cane Growers Organisation Limited has continued its tradition by donating $5,000 to Community Response to Eliminating Suicide (CORES), to support the service within our community.

Donating to CORES since 2015, Pioneer Cane Growers are sharing the importance of recognising CORES and its work within the agricultural industry.

The much-welcomed donation will prove vital in helping local farmers in tough times.

With growers facing unprecedented pressure from government departments, particularly in light of new reef regulations, the mental health of our farming community must be top of mind.

The new regulation processes involved are proving to be a significant change of pace for older farmers, monitoring and reporting chemical usage and runoff, with a considerable impact on mental health and wellbeing.

The impacts of the debate are already taking effect, with farms being sold and growers entering a depression, it’s a different lifestyle to what was previously enjoyed.

“With all the pressure these days… why would you put your kids through having a farm?” Max Musumeci said.

CORES Queensland coordinator Ross Romeo, involved in the sugar industry himself, said a fear of the unknown is a big issue.

“The constant shifting of goalposts affects farmers, and the perception of the blame on the industry has a massive impact.”

“Now you watch every grain, every drop of water,” Mr Romeo said.

The donation from Pioneer Canegrowers will be used to fund vital suicide prevention training in local schools and farming situations like Toolbox Talks.

“They’re usually a 30-minute presentation all about self-care and awareness, which is so important,” Mr Romeo said.

“It means so much to get this money, and we wouldn’t be here without it. It’s so great to have this local support.”

CANEGROWERS MEDIA RELEASE SUGARCANE farmers’ group Canegrowers has welcomed as a win a new option to help Queensland irrigators manage high electricity costs but says more work is needed to fix all the issues in the power pricing system.

“The confirmation from the Queensland Competition Authority that a new control load tariff, called T34, will be available as a primary tariff to farmers from 1 November is a victory for irrigators and comes on the back of years of lobbying from Canegrowers and other farm groups,” Canegrowers CEO Dan Galligan said.

“I urge growers to carefully assess if T34 is right for them to ensure their business can benefit from a lower price for power but also not be affected by the risk of service

delivery interruptions.”

Canegrowers is calling for the parties campaigning in the Queensland State Election to commit to a suite of agricultural electricity tariffs capped at 16c/kWh. T34 is close to that mark with a usage charge of 17.295 c/ kWh and a daily fixed change of $1.18081 per day (both ex-GST).

Bundaberg grower Mark Pressler was part of a joint trial of the control load tariff run by Canegrowers and Energy Queensland and says he was impressed.

“The tariff delivered some worthwhile cost savings for my business and the service interruptions were manageable,” he said. “I’m looking forward to Ergon finalising its plan to send us text notifications so we

know ahead of time when the power might be cut.”

While T34 is a positive step, Mr Galligan said it was not the solution to all of the problems with electricity pricing and Canegrowers would continue to campaign for an end to network gold plating practices and profit gouging by governments.

“Significantly more change is still needed to the electricity pricing system and we are calling on the Labor and Liberal National parties to commit to more action to improve affordability for farmers after the 31 October election,” Mr Galligan said.

“Successive Queensland Governments have used the electricity network as a cash cow and a form of farm business taxation by pulling

out dividends worth up to $1.5 billion each year.

“Power companies have also been rewarded for overcapitalising on the network, what’s known as gold-plating. The network charge is about half of a power bill so when this goes up, profit margin of irrigators gets squeezed.

“Both of these systemic issues are yet to be addressed but if they are, and we see significant price cuts for irrigators across the board, production on farms will increase.”

The Canegrowers State Election 8-point plan lists the high costs of electricity and water as one of the obstacles holding the Queensland sugarcane industry back from realising its full potential.

A green future for red meat supply chains

Rabobank senior animal protein analyst Angus Gidley-Baird

RABOBANK MEDIA RELEASE THE growing focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions around the world is driving a shift in the red meat sector, and it will be the market – rather than regulators – motivating change, according to a newlyreleased industry report.

While challenges remain, the trend towards climatefriendly meat will also offer opportunity for meat industry players, including those in Australia, global food and agribusiness specialist Rabobank says in the report Unlocking Climate-Friendly Meat; Supply Chain Initiatives Will Be Key. As community demand for better environmental outcomes continues to gain momentum both globally and locally, opportunities exist for red meat supply chain stakeholders to implement programs aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) while retaining consumer trust, and promoting social acceptance, the report says.

But measuring emissions in the red meat supply chain remained one of the most challenging aspects confronting the industry.

Rabobank senior animal protein analyst Angus Gidley-Baird said the use of tailored programs with certain specifications in dedicated supply chains – similar to current grass-

fed and organic programs – would allow stakeholders to produce lower-emission red meat without necessarily undertaking onerous emission measurements.

“Instead of having to measure on-farm emissions, livestock owners could participate in a dedicated supply chain with a program that uses a technology or process that has demonstrated emission benefits,” he said.

Some of these technologies, such as using methanereducing feed supplements, implementation of emissionreducing farming practices or refined genetics, were already being commercially applied, and Mr Gidley-Baird said it was only a matter of time before these innovations were integrated into dedicated supply chains.

Incentives for change The market-based approach Rabobank expects to shift the industry towards reduced GHG emissions requires incentives to help stimulate change.

Price premiums for producers, Mr GidleyBaird said, were an obvious incentive, however, he believed price premiums for low-GHG emission beef would be limited.

“While sustainability ranks highly amongst a growing number of consumers, they

don’t necessarily want to pay higher prices for the benefit,” he said. “Surveys conducted

by Meat & Livestock Australia show that, when it comes to the actual purchase, the most common drivers for protein choice are freshness, value, and ease of preparation.”

Despite the potential lack of price premium, Mr GidleyBaird said there was still significant value that could be captured in the low emissions red meat supply chain, including opportunities for productivity gains, generation of carbon credits, plus access to markets and capital.

Challenges measuring GHG emissions A challenge for the red meat supply chain lies in bringing the two ends of the supply chain together, Mr GidleyBaird said.

“In the red meat supply chain, the bulk of the emissions occur at the production end of the supply chain, yet it is society – in this case consumers – that represent one of the key proponents for emissions reductions,” he said.

Communicating emission reductions through the supply chain was essential to connect the two ends of the supply chain, and required either the use of a trusted program or brand, or the measurement and reporting of emissions.

World-first app merges tech and agriculture

New technology that grants farmers better access to water management data is set to benefit the cane industry in the Burdekin.

Marina Trajkovich CSIRO’s world first water management app is coming to the Burdekin, merging technology, agriculture and science to the benefit of farmers.

Named 1622WQ, the application aims to bridge the divide between scientists and producers, allowing cane growers to easily monitor nitrogen content and water quality to improve farming practices both environmentally and economically.

The app uses sensors that are installed in rivers and creeks, sending frequent information to the website easily accessible through your phone.

The Burdekin is set to receive 20 of these new sensors in various catchment

areas in the coming weeks and are set to be running in conjunction with the app by the end of the year.

Tony Webster is an agronomist who has worked with farmers to develop the world first technology, first launched in North Queensland in January.

He says that information previously obtained by physically collecting water samples and waiting weeks for lab analysis will now be instantly and easily accessible to farmers.

“By the time scientists get that information through to farmers it might be months down the track. The sensors can do that immediately,” he says.

“What the app does is it democratises the data,” he says.

“It wasn’t designed with farmers in mind, it was designed with farmers, so the farmers were a big part of our design team.”

Mr Webster stresses that while the new technology contributes to the wider conversation regarding nitrogen runoff on farms, its research is independent of the controversial reef regulation debate impacting cane growers.

“The underlying theme is that farmers want more access to science, they feel as though there’s a barrier there. They want to be able to communicate with scientists better and that’s a two way thing.”

“Farmers are asking a lot of questions about nitrogen and nitrogen management.”

“One of those questions is,

‘Am I losing nitrogen? Is the industry losing nitrogen and is it getting into the creeks, is it getting into the reefs and showing if it is.”

The data will be particularly useful to analyse the impact of heavy rainfall on runoff into catchment areas with the potential for farmers to use the information to improve crop management.

“It’s almost a precursor to any change. They’re saying, “Show me that we’re losing nitrogen because what’s the point of me spending all this money if it’s not actually getting in there.”

“It’s not designed as a tool to defend the regulations, it can’t. It’s not a regulatory tool,” he says.

“It’s part of the nitrogen story.”

Brandon Bowls

18/10/2020 The Brandon Bowls Club A grade pairs competition was decided on Sunday. The new A Pairs champions are Steve Nellestein and Tony Bayliss.

They put on a Melbourne Storm like display jumping out to a lead and applying constant pressure to their opponents Rino Lazzarin and Ray Panecassio. In the B pairs semifinal Wayne Coonan and Vince Beitia maintained their focus all match to just pip the duo of Doug Kiehne and Leo Kenny.

In the club triples contest Tony Bayliss, Steve Nellestein and Wayne Coonan fought out a win over the trio of Glen Woodford, Jamie Woods and Gary Pearce. This match was worthy of a final with the result

not reflective of the contest.

Tony’s team were too good, pouncing on every opportunity as it presented itself.

On Friday night there were two triples, and a pairs game.

The trio of Merv Wilshere, Lyn Storrie, and Jamie Woods were no match for the men on a mission in Hans Baas, Ross McLaughlin and Ray Panecassio.

The trio of Chris Griggs, Doug Kiehne and Simon Griggswere were down by one going into the last end. The trio of Norm Storrie, Rob Jorgensen and Rino Lazzarin were holding shot.

Simon had the last bowl which resulted in a two shot win on the last end to take out the match.

Nutrien Ag Solutions will be hosting a night of fun with bowls thrown in on Friday 23rd October. Names to be in by 6:30pm for a 7:00pm start. Call Rob on 0419655005, or Gary on 0488214222 or the Club on 0456 727 061 To get in the spirit of “walktober” where we are all to promote walking as a health benefit the club put on 5 pairs games to increase the amount of walking. In game 1, Ken Ferguson and Doug Robins were good enough to defeat Chris Griggs and Len Feeney in a close contest. In game 2 Hans Baas and Peter Henderson had too much stamina for Norm Storrie and Simon Griggs taking out their match comfortably at the end.

Game 3 saw Dave Sheehan and Gary Pearce combine in a show of tight consistent bowling to defeat the errant duo of Merv Wilshere and Richard Mau. Game 4 was a tussle of epic proportions, with Nev Dickinson and Peter Jorgensen too good at the end to defeat the valiant challenge of Mick McCloskey and Kev Collins. Game 5 went the way of the dynamic duo of Jamie Woods and Joe Yipanazer over the virtuous duo of Gary Nosworthy and Helen Collins.

Next Sunday, thanks to Julies

QUALIFIED FLUNKIES

SCORE FOUR

Of the Senior teams the Funkies qualified for the 3rd Division Grand Final, the Reserves and Youth teams both lost but will be in action again this weekend and the Women’s Reserves lost and their season has finished. In the Junior section the Under 15s won but the Under 13s lost.

The Reserve team had their second loss for the season going down to Olympic 4-2 in the major semi-final played in Townsville on Saturday evening. Burdekin were first to score through Lambie-Fabbro, were dominating the game and had a goal denied as a free kick from Gadd ended up in the net only to see the referee call it back. Olympic then scored 2 quick goals to go into half time leading 2-1. Burdekin gained the ascendency in the second half but conceded a penalty which was converted by Olympic who then scored a fourth goal due to a defensive blunder. The Panthers continued to chase the game and were awarded with their second goal after a good interchange resulted in Licciardello delivering the ball into the box to see it deflected into the goal to make the score 4-2. Although the Burdekin pushed hard they couldn’t make up the 2 goal advantage. They now play Saints Eagles Souths on Saturday night for the right to play Olympic in the Grand Final.

RED CARD RESULT The Burdekin Tyre Service Reserves are the 2020 Minor Premiers after defeating Ingham 7-1 in the postponed game played last Wednesday night. They started smartly and were up by 4 goals before Ingham pulled one back. The locals were reduced to 10 men for the last 25 minutes after losing a player due to a red card incident.

This didn’t stop the Burdekin side that kept attacking and scored another 3 goals before the final whistle. Adam Mottin scored his first hat trick with Jay Leckenby, Casper Licciardello, Ryan Scodellaro and Cody Betteridge adding the other goals.

TWICE THE CHANCE The win took the Burdekin side to the top of the ladder to give them a double chance in the first of the finals to be played on Saturday. This win also qualifies the Burdekin Reserve Grade Team a place in the North Queensland Championships where they will play Mareeba on November 7 to decide who is the best Reserve Grade team in North Queensland. Congratulations to the Reserve Grade team on a very successful season and good luck in the final series and the North Queensland Championships.

Home Hill Tennis

Week 2 Home Hill Tennis Association Home Hill Car Wash defeated Ruddy, Tomlins and Baxter 45 games to 42. There was some great tennis played between Dallan Garvey and Dianne Edwards against Matt Baxter and Travis. Dallan served well and with Travis making a few good returns, it forced Dallan to take the serve to the next level with some extra work on the ball. Matt and Travis took the set 5-3. Jack Edwards partnered with his cousin Shanay Arroita to win a 6-0, after Jack had previously gone down 6-0.

In the other match Dale Last’s team narrowly defeated Home Hill Surgery 46 - 45. Mother and daughter pairing of Liz and Emma Shepherdson were too strong for their opposition having a convincing 6-1 win.

Not only were the final scores close but there were no 3 set winners on the night. A big thank you to all of the fill ins on the night, it was greatly appreciated. Tennis was definitely the winner.

It was a big week for the Burdekin Panthers. On Wednesday the Reserves travelled to Townsville to play Ingham and won 7-1 to secure the minor premiership. Then at the weekend four Senior teams and both Junior teams were involved in the semi-finals. the Burdekin defence and Wulguru scored to level it up. The scores remained level at the half time break. Five minutes into the second half Burdekin had a player sent off after a straight red card. Despite being a player down Burdekin continued to play attacking football but couldn’t find a winning goal. The stalemate continued until the end of normal time and extra time was needed to find a winner. Burdekin took the lead again after two minutes of extra time when Adam Mottin made a run down the right and beat the keeper with an angled shot. The 10 man Burdekin team then managed to hold on for the remaining 28 minutes of extra time to advance to the Grand Final where they will meet the winner of the Preliminary Final between Wulguru and Saints Eagle Souths.

INJURIES COUNT

EXTRA TIME

The Under 13s went down 2-1 against Olympic.

Injuries prior to the game played a major part only with one substitute available for the semifinal. Ellyana Mugica scored in the first half but that wasn’t enough.

The Austral Masonry Funkies played Wulguru in the Major Semi Final at Brolga Park on Friday Night with a place in the Grand Final up for grabs.

Burdekin made the best possible start to the game by taking the lead after only two minutes, Tarryn Smith scoring with a low shot past the Wulguru keeper. The Funkies dominated the midfield area and created a number of further chances but couldn’t convert any of them. In the 32nd minute a Wulguru through ball split

The Under 15s major semi-final against SES was interesting. Blake Walker and Damien Casella both scored in the first half and Burdekin led 2-0 at half time. However near the end of the second half SES scored twice to make it 2-2 and extra time. There being no further score the game went to penalties with Burdekin winning 4-3 with Blake walker, Damon Todd, Lucas Gabiola and Damien Casella all scoring from the spot.

Home Hill Junior Cricket season a winner

Scott Heidke

IT WAS a busy time for the Home Hill Cricket Association this week with games on Friday, the 2019/2020 presentations on Saturday night and the club hosting the Under 13 and 14 North Queensland Trials on Sunday.

Our Under 13’s also had another T20 game in Townsville on Sunday.

Some notable performances in the Under 11s on Friday were from Jarvis Dowson and Charlie Stanton-Cook, both scoring 17 not out and Eamon Casey who took 2 wickets for 8 runs.

It was easy batting for some of the Under 14s this week, Salvatore Cardillo blasted 61 runs unbeaten and Nicholas Pengelly was also not out on 30 runs. Not all of the batters found it easy going on the turf pitch, with some impressive bowling figures also. Corey Heidke led the way with the ball with 2 wickets for 3 runs, followed by Rowdy King 2/10 and Thomas Cardillo 2/6.

2019-20 U13 TCI T20 Plate Premiers - Home Hill

The Under 13 Blue team, who had some players out at NQ trials, were outgunned

by Wanderers this week, 6 for 67 to 5 for 90. It must have been a bowler’s wicket as Ethan Pengelly was the only stand out for Home Hill this game, clean bowling 3 batters for only 7 runs.

Our Under 15s had a week off due to the NQ trials in Home Hill on Sunday.

COVID-19 brought last season to a premature end so our presentation of trophies and awards were postponed until last Saturday night.

CRICKET is back on the pitch the first round of senior cricket fixtures played at the Home Hill Cricket Association last weekend.

There was plenty to celebrate with the 2019/20 season finally presented, and also the renaming of ‘Number One Field’ to ‘Barry Richards Field’.

Mr Richards was on hand for the presentation, flanked by his wife Heather and their children and grandchildren.

Life member Steve Sunderland presented Mr Richards with the sign, which will now stand adjacent to the field and serve as a constant reminder of the enormous contribution Mr Richards has made to the Association over many decades.

On the field Guardian Pharmacy took on Crown Hotel, with the game between Mongrels and Peto Marine being a forfeit.

Guardian Pharmacy made a good start to the season defeating Crown Hotel by 26 runs, who won the toss and elected to bat.

Scoring proved difficult with Guardian Pharmacy bowling attack bowling tight lines and being well supported by the field.

Only Brendan Williams (25) and Matthew Wight (14) provided any real trouble to the scorers with the remainder of the Crown Hotel batting line up failing to crack double figures.

Jamie Grabs and Venkat Mupparaju did the damage with the ball claiming an impressive 2 and 3 wickets respectively on the way to bowling Crown Hotel out for 100.

The Guardian Pharmacy batters showed more resolve with a number of them making decent starts.

Alf Wilkins went on to be the mainstay of the innings with a match winning 41 not

out of 54 balls.

Dan Olditch also made a valuable 21 runs in the lower order to get Guardian across the line.

The Crown Hotel bowlers shared the wickets with Lucas Sunderland and Alex Scalia each bagging a pair.

Following the game, the 2019/2020 season presentations were held in the clubhouse.

Award winners were as follows: Greg Flanagan – Player of the Season and Bowling Average Leon Franklin – Batting Average Alf Wilkins – Most Wickets Ross Parker – Highest Score A Grade Winners – Peto Marine Richards Family Club Person of the Year – Chris Penna Anyone who is interested in playing cricket this season can call 0429580191.

PREMIERSHIP WINNERS! Burdekin Roosters flying high after winning weekend

U12 and U17’s celebrating their victories on Saturday night

Hayden Menso IN what’s been a massive week for our local Burdekin Roosters, two junior teams have topped it off with premiership wins.

Travelling to Townsville on Saturday, the Burdekin Roosters Junior Rugby League Under 12s and 17s battled it out in intense games for the top spot in their respective age divisions, in the Townsville District Junior Rugby League (TDJRL) competition.

The U17 boys took on Brothers Blue in a cracking 14-4 grand final match.

Their win makes it the team’s second premiership in three years, a perfect end to their time in junior rugby league.

U17’s coach Will Jack said the victory was a sweet one.

“When that hooter rang, I was ecstatic. That’s probably the only word you can use.

I was nervous all week, but once that hooter rang, it was a big relief to have the result go our way.”

“The boys deserved it, they’re a great side and have worked hard all year, and here we are,” Mr Jack said.

The quality of the football stacked up to bring the boys

to the top of the leaderboard against the other five teams across the season.

“It’s been a long time since the Burdekin side from 17s – 19s has won it, and the boys deserve it today, they were impressive.”

The team’s gameplay was all in the making of the showdown success.

“Defence is a big one, and it went to show today. We always had a lot of points in us, credit to Brothers, they were a very good defensive side and very well-coached.

Our boys just had a little bit of x-factor today, and that was probably the difference,’ Mr Jack said.

The U12s took on the Herbert River Crushers with a score of 24–10 at the final siren.

The young guns continued their winning streak, having played through the entire season undefeated.

Under 12s coach, Alf Cantarella said it was great to come away with the win.

“It was just so real; it was hard to acknowledge we had won it again. We won it two years ago in U10s, and runners-up in U11s, and to win it again it was really good.”

Well deserved win: U17 Roosters Rugby League team

The competitiveness between the top two teams made for an exciting game.

“It was a tough competition; Herbert River had a very strong team. We were undefeated all year, and so were they, so it was the two top teams out of sixteen. We were nervous about it, but at the same time we back our boys, who have a lot of talent in our team, and they pulled it off,” Mr Cantarella said.

One of the Under 12s captains, Will Michielin said it was a great end to the season.

“To have that [winning] feeling back again after losing it was really something special.”

The teams celebrated the victories back at home base on Saturday night, surrounded by family and supporters.
