SALE INFORMATION
DELIVERY/TRANSPORT
We offer free delivery within a 300km radius of Meandarra to your property and to other major centres in QLD and NSW.
Please contact us for details as we would like to personally deliver as many bulls as possible. Bulls will be available for collection on sale day. Any bulls awaiting delivery will be held free of charge.
INSURANCE
All bulls are at the buyer’s risk from the fall of the hammer, so we strongly recommend insuring all purchases. A GDL representative will be available on sale day to assist with this.
HEALTH
All bulls have been vaccinated with 7-in1, Botulism, Vibrio and 3-day sickness with a booster due in July 2025. They have also been vaccinated with 3-Germ Blood and tested Negative for Pestivirus.
GENETIC TESTING
All bulls have had a full GGP100K genetic profile completed which includes parent verification, polled and colour status.
In regards to Polled/Horn Status, all bulls catalogued are either Homozygous Polled or Heterozygous Polled. The term Homozygous Polled indicates that the animal carries two copies of the polled gene and should only produce polled progeny (even if the cow they are mated to is horned). The term Heterozygous Polled indicates that the animal only has one copy of the polled gene and can either produce polled or horned progeny (outcome dependant
on the genetic makeup of the cow).
Results of all Polled Testing have been provided either in the catalogue or on the supplementary sheet which will be released just prior to the sale.
In regards to coat colour testing, two possible results have been identified in our bulls. These are Homozygous Black or Heterozygous Black. A thorough explanation of how this trait is expressed/ passed onto progeny is described on page 13 of the catalogue. Again, these results have been provided in either the catalogue or on the supplementary sheet released just prior to sale day.
Please note that we take no responsibility for any inaccuracy that may occur with any of the test results.
RETAINED SEMEN SHARES
Semen will be collected prior to sale from a select number of bulls with no further call on these bulls, unless a mutual agreement is made between the vendor and the purchaser.
GUARANTEE
If there is ever a problem with any of the sale cattle, we would appreciate being the first to know!
All of the sale bulls are fully guaranteed. In the event that a bull is found to be infertile or incapable of natural service, (which has not occurred due to disease or injury), following the fall of the hammer, we will offer a replacement bull or a credit will be given for the following sale, less the salvage value of the animal. This guarantee does not include interest, expenses, costs or damages.
Any claims should be made in writing within 6 months, and accompanied by a veterinary certificate.
Welcome
to the 8th Edition of our Annual Bull Sale Catalogue; where we’d like to start off by thanking everyone who has been of great support to us over the last year.
To our wonderful clients who, without you, we wouldn’t be able to ‘do what we do’, those doing on-farm doing odd jobs when we’re away, the contingent that blows in for a day here and there and puts a smile on our face every time (ET technicians, scanning, freeze branding, semen testing, videoing and anyone that helps out in the lead up to the bull sale-just to name a few!), our ‘show crew’- some of the best times are had here, anyone who contributes to our publicity/promotion (in particular, the wonderful ladies at Hewitt Consulting Co who have taken over our graphic design work for this year) and above all else, to those that have looked after our three boys at various times to ensure that we are able to get a few jobs done (with a 3 year old & 1 year old twins, this has undoubtedly been one of the toughest jobs of them all this year, haha!)- So to you all, we say ‘Thank You!’
Our 2024 Annual Sale yielded a result well beyond our expectations- it was certainly a group of bulls that we were extremely proud of, but to end the bull sale season coming away with the 9th Most Successful Bull Sale in Australia (by average/head), was something that we will cherish and remember forever- both because of our own accomplishment and more importantly, because of the recognition that the Black Simmental cattle are now gaining in Australia.
The year that followed saw us undertake extensive Embryo Transfer Programs, capitalising on both our own donors and several overseas females that were purchased over the last few years to add some new genetics and cow families, as well as utilising some new AI sires.
April of this year saw us attend the Sydney Royal Easter Show once again, where we were elated to come away with some fantastic results; Junior Champion Female with Elite Sugar Crush U157 (who has maternal brothers selling at Lot 2 and 4), Senior and Grand Champion Female with Elite Black Wendy T165 (sired by Woonallee Missile Q476 who has several sons in the sale) and Junior/Grand and Supreme Simmental Exhibit with Elite Uproar U199, who followed in his sire’s footsteps (Elite Quittin’ Time) and sells as Lot 1 in this year’s sale. Winner of the Breeder’s Group and Most Successful Simmental Exhibitor then topped off a great day in the Simmental Ring.
Interbreed Day was a moment in time we’ll remember forever with Elite Uproar claiming the prestigious Urquhart Trophy (Supreme Beef Exhibit of the Show) making him the FIRST Simmental to EVER win this award since its inception!
Elite Black Wendy T165 also stood in the final lineup for Best Female Exhibit of the Show and then teamed with Elite Uproar to also final in the Horden Trophy (Supreme Breed Pair of the Show).
The Sale Bulls
As always, the main aim with our Black Simmental Program is to provide our clients with phenotypically attractive bulls comprising of all the traits expected from ‘Modern European Cattle’ (a blend of adequate muscling & softness, bone, a strong sirey head, good foot-shape/structure, adequate hair type/skin, reproductive soundness and the ability to the cover ground correctly).
Blessed with a fantastic season this year, our sale bulls enjoyed an extended paddock preparation before starting their silage ration in June.
Please note when looking through this catalogue, and our bulls, that we are offering a slightly younger group of bulls as a result of a tougher season and extended joining period over the time they were conceived. Nevertheless, we definitely believe that we are still putting forward an extremely high quality cohort but that ‘the best may be yet to come’ with many of these sires. The bulls are a mixed group of both natural and embryo calves with the main walking sires consisting of Elite Quittin’ Time, Woonalle Missile, Yerwal Estate State of War and Elite Platinum. The majority of the new AI sired bulls for this year include St Pauls Revenue R417 and RF Caliber 014G.
As always, we are also offering a small group of Sim-Angus Sires for those wanting to capitalise on a splash of Euro content but to a slightly lesser extent than the purebred bulls. It is noted in the catalogue comments as to which bulls these are.
St Pauls Genetics
We are excited once again to have Bill & Susan Cornell from St. Pauls Genetics be a part of the sale this year with a great draft of yearling bulls. They were handpicked by Bill and Glen at the start of the year and arrived in Meandarra at the start of February when they were then prepared under the same conditions as the Elite draft. As always, we love offering the St Pauls bulls due to their addition of some new genetics to our sale cohort, as well as a great blend of desirable phenotypic attributes and their fantastic sets of EPDs. Noteable sires within the group this year include: Gibbs 9114G Essential, TG Gold 2743, St Pauls Qatar Q410, TNT Tanker U263 and RF Caliber 014G.
With all that being said, we hope you enjoy looking through the catalogue and welcome any inspections of the bulls at any point leading up to the sale.
Looking forward to catching up with everyone on ‘The First Thursday in September’.

INVITED VENDOR
ST PAULS GENETICS
My cattle passion started in 1968 when my parents gave me a commercial cross bred heifer. My cattle consultancy journey has been thoroughly educational involving over fifty overseas adventures to all parts of the world to view and select cattle. A landmark moment was in the mid 90’s with a visit to the Clay Research Centre in Nebraska, the message was to crossbreed, and the complementarity crossbreed cow will produce 25-30% more lifetime production to the purebred!
Dr Harlan Ritchie of Michigan State University had in 1982 told me that the SimmAngus cow was the best performing cow from his studies. With this understanding I headed to the folk at American Simmental. They had IGS the global multi-breed performance program with profit-based indexes.
In 1997 I brought GW Mick 838 Black Simmental semen to Australia. Soon after we started breeding our Angus to Simmental and in 2002, we brought Black Simmental embryos to Australia. Ever since our family have bred and utilised Black Simmental. We started selling Black Simmental bulls in 2005.
The IGS performance program assists the cattle industry to compare cattle on a global multi-breed data base of over twenty-two million head. The induction of IGS to Australian Simmental allows us all to use science to create more profitable cattle in a structured program . At St Paul’s our passion is to multiply superior genetics and share these genetics with the industry. We enjoy collaboration with parts of the industry especially other breeders in marketing and distributing genetics. Being an appreciative invited guest of the Elite Sale is part of this. We also support junior members with
gifting them the possession in their pick heifer from our herd.
Having served on the Simmental Federal Board and in roles of Chair of Youth and a member of the technical committee it allowed me to contribute to the breed and to IGS, its members and especially youth.
The St Paul’s herd has enjoyed success over the journey, with high selling cattle and genetics; show success with bulls, females, and steers; cattle with high balanced performance, docility, and doability.
Our plan is to breed the best Black Simmentals that we can. Factors of Performance in IGS EPDS and Indexes; good looking phenotype, solid structure, overall fertility, longevity, and docility are what we select.
INTRODUCTION
TO
IGS and EPDs
Earlier in 2023, Simmental Australia made the decision to make the move from the Breedplan Recording System to IGS (International Genetic Solutions), the world’s largest animal performance recording system.
One of the major changes between Breedplan and IGS is that the breeding figures are reported as Estimated Progeny Differences (EPD’s) rather than Estimated Breeding Values (EBV’s). The difference between the two is simple. Effectively, an EBV is an animal’s OWN genetic value for a particular trait. However, an individual animal can only pass half of this EBV data onto their progeny. EPDs on the other hand, already have this ‘half’ accounted for. That is to say, an EPD is a forecast of
the genetic merit of an animal’s PROGENY.
IGS can also incorporate an animal’s genomics into its performance data. All animals in this year’s Elite Cattle Co Bull Sale have been 100K GGPLD DNA profiled, ensuring that their data is as up-to-date as possible for you.
Please note, in this early stage of the transition to IGS, some of our accuracies are seen to be quite low, so please be aware that not all data this year is going to be as relevant as in years to come.
Please feel free to ask us any questions that you may have about the IGS data recording system!
Sale bull EPD information was extracted from the IGS database on the 9/7/25. Note: Figures are updated weekly.
EPD INFORMATION
With the introduction of the IGS performance recording system for Simmental cattle, IGS is the world’s largest animal performance recording system.
One of the major changes is the breeding figures being reported as Estimate Progeny Differences (EPDs), rather than Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs). The difference between the two is simple.
Effectively, an EBV is an animal’s own genetic value for a particular trait. However, the animal can only pass half of this onto their progeny. EPDs have the “half” already accounted for. That is, an EPD is the genetic merit of an animal’s progeny – what they will pass onto their progeny.
IGS can incorporate an animal’s genomics into its performance data. All animals in the Simmental Opportunity sale have been 100K GGP-LD DNA profiled.

INTRODUCING THE
2025 SALE LOTS
UPROAR (P)
ECCPU199 I 14/12/2023 I 20 MTHS
HOMOZYGOUS POLLED, BLACK
A real sale feature here to kick off our 2025 Sale and we believe, one of the best bulls that we have ever bred. The only reason Uproar hasn’t been retained is that we still use his sire extensively, and his dam’s side has also already had a tremendous widespread influence in our herd. Uproar is a true stud sire prospect due to his tremendous balance, outstanding carcass, added capacity, loose hide, beautiful skin/hair type and extra bone. He’s really hard not to admire; he pulls up beautifully and square every time.
He’s a bull that has had a very successful show career with the highlight being when he was crowned Junior and Grand Champion Bull followed by Supreme Simmental Exhibit at this year’s Sydney Royal Easter Show, at just 16 months of age. He followed this by then winning the prestigious Urquhart Trophy (Supreme Beef Exhibit of the Show), making him the first ever Simmental to win this award since its inception!

The Diamonds Cow Family is quickly becoming one of our most prolific female lines having produced many top end females and sires in the past few years.
His dam, Elite Flirtin’ For Diamonds N113 was also a show quality female winning a Champion Ribbon at Sydney Royal Easter Show and has also produced Elite Scorcher, a high selling bull that sold in 2022 for $34,000 to Ticoba Simmental and Simbrahs. N113 is also the dam of R123, who produced Lot 1 from last year’s sale (, who sold for $28,000 to HC Rural). R123 also has a son selling at Lot 34 in this year’s sale. Elite Tsistipas a very successful sire for us (and Sale Topper in 2021 selling to M & L Cole), also stems from the same Diamonds Cow Family.
Uproar’s Sire, Elite Quittin’ Time, was a champion in himself, also winning Grand Champion Bull and Supreme Simmental Exhibit at Sydney Royal Easter Show (at the 2022 Simmental Feature Show). He is the only bull bred by us that we’ve ever retained and is still one of our most popular sires in use.

Revenue himself was a high growth, powerhouse sire and he’s consistently thrown a lot of his outstanding attributes onto his progeny. Underrated’s dam is a beautiful Iron Sugar cow and also the dam of Elite Sledgehammer, who was the top price bull in our 2023 Sale selling to Eden Hills Simmentals. Sledgehammer has since been used by us as one of our main AI sires. Pedigree aside, the bull is impressive in himself; gutsy, strong topped, big hipped with a big sirey head- he’s sure to breed some thumping weaners and we know will attract a fair bit of attention come sale day. He also has both Growth and Carcass Traits that fall into the Top 15 & 20% of the breed.

His maternal sister is one of our best first calvers this year.

Notwithstanding that delivery is given to or possession obtained by the purchaser or his representative prior to the payment of the purchase money in full the property in any lot which is sold shall not pass to the Purchaser until the full purchase price and all cheques, promissory notes, bills of exchange, acceptance orders or drafts given in connection with such payment have been paid and liquidated, and until property shall pass, the Purchaser shall hold such lot as bailee, provided that in all cases should such payment not have been made and liquidated within 14 days of the date of the sale the Auctioneer reserves the right to:–
(i) Rescind the contract on behalf of the Vendor and repossess and resell any lot;
(ii) Recover from the Purchaser interest upon the purchase price at a rate per annum which aggregates the AMBA Bill Rate plus two percentum. For the purposes of this condition, the expression “the AMBA Bill Rate” is the rate published by theAustralian Merchant Bankers Association in good faith as at the date of the sale as its bill rate for 180 day bills of exchange expressed as a percentage per annum. If at any time the AMBA Bill Rate becomes unavailable for any reason, the Auctioneer shall determine and advise the Purchaser of the interest rate to apply for the purposes of this condition.
(b) The Auctioneer is selling as the del credere agent of the Vendor and the full purchase price of any lot sold shall be payable by the Purchaser to the Auctioneer and be fully recoverable by the Auctioneer in its own name.
10. If the Purchaser shall neglect or fail to comply with any of the within conditions, any lot purchased by him may be immediately resold by public auction or private contract, with or without notice, at the risk of the former Purchaser, who will be held responsible for all loss and expenses arising out of such resale, and shall not participate in any profit accruing therefrom.
11. Any Vendor or Purchaser removing the sale number from any lot after it has been sold will fully indemnify all affected parties for any loss, costs or damage should the lot be wrongly delivered.
12. The Purchasers, if any more than one, shall be jointly and severally bound by these Terms and Conditions, and shall jointly and severally carry out and perform same. 13. Any person who advances a bid on a lot shall do so on the expressed condition and understanding that should that person’s bid be the highest bid and such bid is accepted by the Vendor, then that person will be held personally liable for the price so agreed upon, regardless of the fact that that person may be acting on behalf of another party, either disclosed or undisclosed to the Vendor or Auctioneer, provided however, that this Condition shall not in any way negate the Vendor’s right to claim against any principal and in such case the bidder ’s liability shall be construed to be by way of guarantee.
14. The Auctioneer may, should it think fit, make arrangements on a Purchaser’s behalf for the feeding, watering, trucking, shipping of and general attendance to any lot after sale but no responsibility will be accepted by the Auctioneer and all such service will be at the Purchaser’s risk and expense.
15. No lot will be delivered until the sales invoice has been checked and signed by the Purchaser or his duly authorised representative.
16. (a) Each lot in all cases shall be sold with all faults, if any, and excepting those conditions and warranties implied by the Trade Practices Act or any applicable State legislation which cannot be contractually excluded and excepting conditions and warranties expressly contained in these Terms and Conditions of Sale, any express or implied condition, statement of warranty, statutory or otherwise, is hereby excluded. The Auctioneer is not liable in respect of any error, misdescription or omission in any particulars appearing or stated regarding the description of pedigrees of any lot offered for sale and no such error, misdescription of omission shall entitle the Purchaser to annual the sale or reject the lot or claim any compensation, damage or abatement in price.
(b) Each lot will be sold subject to passing all veterinary tests required by the law of the state or country to which the Purchaser intends to transport that particular lot, such tests to be undertaken at the Purchaser’s expense and concluded immediately

(a) twelve months after the date of sale or

(2) FEMALES - Save and except for female calves at foot, all females are guaranteed to be in calf or go into calf by the later of:
(a) 6 months of the date of sale
(b) the animal reaching the age of 30 months
A positive pregnancy test certified by a qualified veterinary surgeon shall be sufficient evidence that the animal is in calf.
(3) Claims under Clauses 17(1) and 17(2). A claim that an animal has failed to satisfy a guarantee of fertility under Clause 17(1) or 17(2) must be made to the Vendor within the relevant guarantee period but prior to the animal entering a quarantine area other than on the Vendor’s property.
(a) All claims must be accompanied by a certificate from a registered veterinarian surgeon in accordance with the guidelines established by the Australian Association of Cattle Veterinarians which must clearly identify the basis of the claim.
(b) Subject to Clause 17(9), infertility resulting from injury or disease occurring after the sale of the animal is not covered by this guarantee. (c) The Vendor retains the right to have the animal placed on a property nominated by him or returned to his own property for further assessment of fertility for a period not exceeding six months. If the animal proves fertile within the period such status must be confirmed by a certificate issued by a registered veterinary surgeon in accordance with the guideline established by the Australian Association of Cattle Veterinarians and costs incurred must be borne by the Purchaser. If the animal is not proven fertile within the period, the costs incurred must be borne by the Vendor.
(4) LIABILITY OF A VENDOR - Except for costs defined elsewhere in the conditions of sale, the liability of a Vendor in respect of claims relating to fertility shall not exceed the purchase price of the animal(s) or provide mutually agreed upon replacement animal(s).
(5) In the event of a claim being substantiated:
(a) The purchase price shall be refunded within 14 days unless a mutually agreed upon replacement animal has been provided.
(b) The animal/s which are the subject of the claim shall automatically become the property of the Vendor and be returned to him or disposed of according to his instruction at his expense.

(b) The Purchaser has collected and stored semen from a bull or
(c) The Purchaser attempted any form of embryo collection from a female. (7) In the event of a dispute as to whether a lot is a breeder, such dispute shall be resolved by the Vendor and the Purchaser. The Auctioneer, while he will use his best endeavours to assist, shall have no liability or responsibility in that regard. If an animal is alleged or proved not to be a breeder, the Purchaser must nevertheless pay the Auctioneer the full purchase price and any other monies or interest payable by the Purchaser in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
(8) EVIDENCE OF FERTILITY – A Certificate issued by a registered veterinary surgeon at or before the time of sale that an animal is fertile (unless it is a certificate stating in respect of a female that she is in calf at the time of sale) does not, of itself, satisfy or discharge the Vendor’s obligations under the guarantee of fertility given under this Clause 17. All animals, except calves at foot, must prove their fertility within the relevant guarantee period.
(9) RELIEF FROM GUARANTEE – If the Vendor seeks to be relieved from the obligations which would otherwise be imposed upon him by this clause by virtue of Clauses 17(3)(b) or 17(6)(a), the onus of proof is upon the Vendor to establish that: (a) The animal suffered the injury or disease or is in poor physical condition due to circumstances and events occurring after the sale, and
(b) The injury, disease of physical condition is the sole cause of the animal’s infertility or failure to prove fertility within the guarantee period.
(10) DEFINITION – For the purpose of this Clause 17, the expression “guarantee period” means: (a) in relation to bulls – the period specified in Clause 17(1) as being the period in which the bull must prove his fertility; and (b) in relation to females – the period specified in Clause 17(2) as being the period in which the female must go into calf. 18. (a) Each lot shall be at the risk of the Vendor in respect of any damage or injury, whether by disease, accident or otherwise, or whether caused by the negligence of the Auctioneer for the period that the lot be in the custody of the Auctioneer, unless such lots shall have been sold in which latter case such lot shall be at the risk of the Purchaser in all such respects.
(b) If any Vendor brings to the sale premises any lot which is dangerous, or infected with any disease, that Vendor shall be liable for all injury, damages, costs, losses or expenses which the Auctioneer may sustain, incur or be put to either directly or indirectly as a result of the Vendor so doing. The Auctioneer reserves the right, at its absolute discretion, to exclude from the sale, or put out of the sale venue or dispose of, any lot which in its opinion shows signs of any disease, whether infectious, contagious or not, or of any serious fault or of being dangerous.
19. DELIVERY — Except at the discretion of the Auctioneer no lot shall be delivered to the Purchaser unless payment of the purchase money together with any additional charges incurred including those expenses incurred by the Auctioneer pursuant to Condition 14 hereof, is first made by the Purchaser to the Auctioneer. Release of lots may be withheld by the Auctioneer until personal cheques are cleared. 20. In these Conditions:—
