School’s out, snakes are in! Reptile expert Steve Robinson, and his collection of scaly friends, certainly caused a stir at Centro this week. A 40-year veteran of the reptile world from the Darling Downs Zoo, Steve brought his ‘Roving Reptiles’ show to Mildura and was only too happy to allow onlookers to get up-close and personal with his ‘pets’, including Mildura’s Harley Carstens, 9.

INSIDE

e’ve always wondered this... now we know... People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation. The Baby Boomers, are people born between 1946 and 1959. Generation X, are people born between 1960 and 1979. Generation Y , are those born between 1980 and 2009. Why do we call the last group Generation Y? I have a theory, it’s because they say.... • Y should I get a job? • Y should I leave home and find my own place? • Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours? • Y should I clean my room? • Y should I wash and iron my own clothes? • Y should I buy any food?

into some perspective in one of it’s releases. • A billion seconds ago it was 1959. • A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive. • A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age. • A billion days ago noone walked on the earth on two feet. • A billion dollars ago was only eight hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it!”

petrol station owner in Dublin was trying to increase his sales so he put up a sign that read, Free Sex with Fill-Up. Soon Paddy pulled in, filled his tank and asked for his free sex. The owner told him to pick a number from 1 to 10. If he guessed correctly, he would get his free sex. Paddy guessed 8, and the proprietor said, “You were close, but the number was 7. Sorry. No sex this time.” A week later, Paddy, along with his friend Mick, pulled in for another fill-up. Again he asked for his free sex. The proprietor again gave him the same story, and asked

E thought this was instructive. It comes from Money News’ Ross Greenwood. “What is a billion?” “The next time you hear a politician use the word ‘billion’ in a casual manner, think about whether you want the ‘politicians’ spending YOUR tax money. “A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that ﬁgure

him to guess the correct number. Paddy guessed 2 this time. The proprietor said, “Sorry, it was 3. You were close, but no free sex this time.” As they were driving away, Mick said to Paddy, “I think that game is rigged and he doesn’t really give away free sex.” Paddy replied, ”No it ain’t, Mick. It’s not rigged at all. My wife won twice last week!”

Snakes, lizards and crocs - Oh my! THERE was certainly a lot of activity at Mildura Centro this week, with wave after wave of interested onlookers gathering around reptile expert Steve Robinson, and his collection of scaly friends. Bringing his ‘Roving Reptiles’ show to Mildura this week, the Darling Downs Zoo’s veteran of the reptile world, was only too happy to allow his audience to get up close and personal with the reptiles on display. His list of appearances

Today:

Saturday:

included a Murray-Darling Carpet Python (which he allowed several youngsters to hold), a Tiger Snake, and a young, but still terrifying, salt water crocodile. “The crocodile has easily been the star of the show,” Steve said. “Every time I take him out of his box you can hear a big murmur of excitement from the crowd.” And while giving locals a chance to see both dangerous and placid reptiles up close is part of the show, Steve said it was all

Sunday:

about educating residents about the reptiles living around them. “The majority of the those on display are from this area,” he said. “It’s all about information, and teaching the kids in particular more about what to do should they come across one of these reptiles. “And it’s a lot of fun for everyone too.” Steve’s Reptile Show will feature in the Centro concourse from 10am to 3pm today.

By BEN PISCIONERI DESPITE years of work to encourage trucks away from Deakin Avenue, a significant amount of heavy vehicle traffic continues to use the district’s main thoroughfare. Roundabouts have been constructed along Benetook Avenue – at Fourteenth and Seventeenth Streets – road conditions have been improved and a pleth-

ora of signs erected encouraging trucks to use Benetook Avenue, from either Seventh Street or Seventeenth Street, but still commuters are often faced with trucks and Bdoubles on their way to work. Mildura Rural City Councillor for Tourism, Mark Eckel, hopes a new VicRoads study will further progress the push to make Benetook Avenue the

district’s main heavy vehicle traffic route. Cr Eckel said he believed the study would look at several specific issues, including sections of Seventh Street. “Our city has waited long enough and the increased traffic is a concern, particularly with fuel carriers as there are three schools along Deakin Avenue and an accident with a tanker involved could result in a catastrophe

in a heavily populated precinct,” he said. “Evidence of this has been seen a number of times with transport roll overs trying to negotiate the left hand turn at the traffic lights from Seventh Street into Deakin Avenue.” Cr Eckel said ensuring the city’s main thoroughfare was easy to negotiate and free of heavy traffic would also enhance the district’s tourism potential.

• HEAVY TRAFFIC: Cr Mark Eckel said the sight behind him wasn’t uncommon, despite Benetook Avenue being promoted as Mildura’s main truck route.

Locust strike force announced THE Victorian Government yesterday announced a new 400-strong strike force to combat what could be the worst locust plague in 75 years. Victorian Premier John Brumby announced a series of incident control centres would be set up at key locations across Victoria, including Mildura, Horsham, Swan Hill, Tatura and Bendigo. The Premier said up to three of these incident control centres could be activated at any one time, staffed by Department of Primary Industries personnel and contractors. Former Victorian Farmers Federation Grains Group president Ian Hastings said while he was waiting for more detail, he welcomed any move to prepare for the upcoming locust threat. “It is good to see the Government doing more work and keeping farmers aware of what is available in terms of assistance,” Mr Hasting said.“Anything like this is a positive.” The Premier’s announcement yesterday follows the recent release of a locust strategy which included a 100 percent rebate to farmers to meet the costs of locust-spraying chemicals, incident control centres, and the lease of fixed wing aircraft and helicopters for crop spraying. Mr Hastings, who is president of the Victorian Ground Sprayers Association, said farmers still needed more detail in relation to how the rebate system will work, which was of some concern, but again said it was a positive step forward. Leading scientists are predicting the expected spring outbreak of locusts to be the worst since 1973/1974, and could even reach the levels of Victoria’s worst plague in 1934. “We are not waiting. We are taking the necessary steps now so that when the locusts hatch, we are ready to act to protect Victoria’s horticulture, livestock and dairy industries,” the Premier said yesterday. “Our government is taking action to support farmers to fight a forecast locust plague which has the potential to cost Victoria’s agriculture sector $2 billion if left untreated.”

Early birds really do reap the benefits THEY say the early bird catches the worm, and that was certainly the case for Mildura woman Barbara Vandepeer this week. Barbara was rewarded for her early purchase of Mildura and District Agricultural Show members tickets, part of a special draw held at Westpac Bank this past Wednesday.

It was a purchase that saw Barbara win her choice between a signed Collingwood Football Club or Melbourne Heart Soccer Club jersey. She was one of 21 locals to have there names pulled ‘out of the hat,’ with the other 20 winners set to receive a double pass to either a Melbourne Heart or Col-

Sharp increase in waste disposal fees AN increase in the levy that Mildura Rural City Council must pay to the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has been blamed for a sharp rise in the cost of disposing of rubbish at the Mildura Landfill announced this week. A level 6x4 trailer of domestic waste will now cost $13.50 to dispose of, up from $10, while a level tandem trailer load will rise from $20 to $27. The cost of disposing industrial and commercial waste will also increase from $51.84 per tonne to $66.92 per tonne. Environment Portfolio

Councillor Nick Cavallo said the State Government announced in March that landfill levy charges would go up for Councils across the State in a bid to reduce waste and increase recycling. “As of July 1, Council has to pay the EPA $15 for every tonne of domestic waste disposed at the Mildura Landfill. This levy was previously $7 per tonne,” Cr Cavallo said. And, the levy Council must pay the EPA for industrial waste will rise from $13 to $25 per tonne. “These increases are quite substantial and will increase

each year over the next four years. Council has therefore been left with no other option but to pass the higher charges onto the individuals and businesses disposing waste at the landfill.” The costs associated with landfill maintenance and infrastructure means Council also increases landfill fees each year by 5 percent. Residents may however reduce the amount they pay when crossing the weighbridge by recycling as many household items as possible and sorting their waste before taking it to the Landfill. “Garden and green waste,

oil, cleanfill and clean chemical drums can be disposed of for free, while disposing of steel and wire or concrete separately will not cost as much as it would if you left it in with general waste,” Cr Cavallo said. Any unwanted household items can also be dropped off at Aroundagain, with most items incurring no charge and can be resold to the public with profits going towards Christie Centre operations. A full list of the new landfill fees is available online at www. mildura.vic.gov.au/waste or from the landfill.

If steam floats your boat... THE triennial Junction Rally will be staged in the park at the confluence of the Murray and Darling Rivers in Wentworth this weekend. An initiative of The Vintage Machinery Society of Sunraysia and the Rivers and Riverboat Historical and Preservation Society, the rally spotlight will be on ‘marine-type engines’ this year. Other points of interest will include a wide array of vintage steam and stationary engines, a collection of river craft including steamboats, paddle boats, classic riverboats and barges, as well as vintage tractors, cars and bikes. The rally will run from 10am to 4pm daily. Entry is $8 for adults, $5 for children and there will be family and two-day passes available, as well as comprehensive catering on-site.

Ambitious story comes to life on Renmark stage LEWIS, a young director and a university drop-out, takes a job in a mental asylum working with patients who are interested in the dramatic arts. He thinks his work will involve staging a small variety show with the group, until longterm patient Roy hijacks the show and insists that the production be nothing less than a grand staging of Mozart’s ‘Cosi Fan Tutte’. So, the stage is set for HIT Productions rendering of Louis Nowra’s ‘Cosi’, now touring the country. The premise is an ambitious thought to say the least! After all, none of the patients can speak Italian, nor sing and the cast is made up of aging nymphomaniacs, obsessive’s and pyromaniacs. Lewis faces the daunting task of drawing performances from a disparate group of people brought together by their individual needs and desires. By contrasting the passion and fervour of the anti-Vietnam movement with a world of isolation and control behind closed doors, Nowra allows all the characters in his play to find fulfilment and humour in the making of a piece of theatre. Lewis’ life is touched by these extraordinary people as his operatic production lurches forward. We, the audience, learn, along with Lewis, that when chasing your dreams it helps not to be too attached to reality. ‘Cosi’, at the Chaffey Theatre, Renmark, on Saturday night, July 24, from 8pm and we have two, free double passes to give away. See Page 21.

Sunraysia is home to the largest Norfolk Island Pine in Victoria...

Green giant is truly tree-mendous By BEN PISCIONERI SUNRAYSIA is now officially home to the largest Norfolk Island Pine tree in Victoria. The green giant, estimated to be 97-years-old and measuring 41 metres high, with a circumference of 4.55 metres, is so large it’s now registered with the National Register of Big Trees. The tree has enjoyed a dominant presence in the front yard of a Karadoc Avenue house, near Nichols Point, for decades, and was recently brought to the attention of the Register’s founder, Derek McIntosh, by Melbournebased tree lover Andrew Blackman. Mr McIntosh said the tree was also registered with the National Trust of Australia, where it’s described as “a specimen of outstanding form” and “possibly the tallest tree in the Mildura district.” He said there are only eight Norfolk Island Pines on his register, and Mildura’s is certainly the biggest. It’s one of three Sunraysiabased trees on the National Register of Big Trees, which only came into being just over 12 months ago. The other two trees are a Queensland Narrow-leaf Bottle, which is planted on the Rio Vista Homestead property, and a Sugar Gum in Elswood Crescent. The 110-year-old Bottle measures 10.5 metres high and 4.4 metres in circumference. The Sugar Gum meanwhile is 23 metres tall and has a circumference of six metres. Mr McIntosh said his almost life-long love of trees drove him to set up the register.

Vampires are a favourite AUSTRALIA’S ‘Twi-hards’ have voted, and it’s official, the popular Twilight saga is Australia’s favourite read. Topping the list of Australia’s largest book poll, the Angus and Robertson Top 100, the vampire series has knocked JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series from first to second place, an achievement that’s sure to excite local fans. More than 100,000 votes cemented Twilight’s position at the top of the prestigious list, now in its fifth year, with voters given only one month to cast their choice online. The response was overwhelming, with four times more votes being cast in 2010. All of this year’s Top 100 books are available at Langtree Mall’s Angus and Robertson Bookstore, with more information available by contacting 5021 0434.

Trivia benefit for ICPA THE Isolated Children’s Parents’ Association is more than $3000 better off thanks to last weekend’s Turlee Station Trivia Night. Hosted by Nathan and Sophie Wakefield, the fund-raiser was making its debut, however the result has all but ensured it will become an annual event. The Wakefields are the proprietors of Turlee Station Stay – a family-friendly farm stay that has been attracting visitors from all over the country for a genuine outback experience. The ICPA, on the other hand, is a voluntary national parent body dedicated to ensuring that all geographically isolated students have equality with their non-isolated peers, of access to an appropriate education. ICPA assists with travel costs, tutoring, scholarships, curriculum, special education and gives assistance to small rural and remote schools. An excited Sophie Wakefield said more than 80 people had attended the night. “But the wet weather probably kept quite a few away,” she said. Despite that, those attending came from as far afield as Melbourne and Adelaide, as well as quite a few from Sunraysia, others from surrounding station properties and Balranald. A native of South Africa, he immigrated to Australia in 1981 and is based in Sydney. After retiring from a career in real estate development, he was finally able to dedicate his time to his love of trees and promptly compiled a team of botanical experts and went ahead with the National Register of Big Trees. • Continued Page 17

With his new book on the Shipwreck Coast away being edited, Mildura Weekly contributing writer Danny O’Neill, author of ‘Ancestral Streams, notes from the Murray Valley,’ jetted off to Europe where, as part of their travels, he and his wife Vikki visited the preserved house and gardens of a famous French Impressionist painter. Danny says he was led...

Up the garden path of Claude Monet By DANNY O’NEILL AS our train sped through the French countryside I was quietly singing... to myself, I thought ...‘Taking a trip up to Monet’s Giverny’ (we’d been in Abergavenny the previous week and I hadn’t been able to get Marty Wilde’s 1968 hit tune out of my head) when Vikki interrupted. “It’s jhiv-er-ni!” she said, “jhiver-ni!” “Ah, four years of French at Mildura High School wasted!” I lamented, before returning to (silently) hum about ‘going up to Monet’s Giverny.’ Claude Monet, in later life, painted almost exclusively in the gardens he created. The resulting paintings are among his most famous masterpieces. So, after a 50 minute trip from Paris’s Gare de Nord, we were looking forward to visiting the gardens that inspired him. Vikki, the art lover, was particularly anticipating seeing the water garden of his famous water lily series of paintings, the largest of which we had seen in the Musée de l’ Orangerie in Paris. I, on the other hand, was simply hoping to pick up a few gardening ideas. The village of Giverny once had its own rural railway station, on a quiet branch line that ran between Monet’s house and his water garden, but a road had replaced the railway some years ago. So at nearby Vernon a bus meets each train to take visitors the few kilometres to Giverny. We travelled on a Wednesday to avoid Tuesday’s larger crowds (the gardens are closed most Mondays). Still, buying bus tickets from the driver, and filling the 40 seater vehicle to standing room only, even-

tually took longer than the bus trip itself, which was further slowed by Vernon’s busy narrow streets. And there was a lengthy walk from the car park, where the bus dropped us off, under the main road and up a village lane to the entrance to Monet’s walled estate. Our tickets to the house and garden cost a reasonable 6 Euros (about $10) each. The two-storied pink-rendered and green-shuttered house, whose long frontage overlooks the garden, was almost hidden by lush vines and creepers. Inside this beautifully restored one-room-deep house, the Japanese woodcut prints that influenced Monet’s later painting adorned the walls. The windows of the furnished rooms, particularly upstairs, allowed enticing views across the garden where long flower beds bloomed with large tulips, mauve and violet irises, massed primulas, and many other flowers chosen years ago by Monet for their visual impact. This colour flows into the house, where the airy yellow dining room and blue kitchen further demonstrate Monet’s love of a colourful palette. The artist’s carefully designed and un-walled water garden, which adjoins meadows extending to the Seine River, features the famous wisteria-festooned Japanese bridge and water lilies (the ‘nymphéas’ of many of his paintings). Over several years in the 1890s Monet had bought and developed the marshy land across the railway track sometimes over other villagers’ objections to create his ponds. He even obtained municipal permission to divert the tiny River R, on its way to the nearby Seine River, to refresh the ponds. • Continued Page 15

• SHOW ME THE MONET: Like something off the front of a postcard, Monet’s garden is a colourful, special and well-visited place of beauty. The photos show the old house at the end of the garden, ABOVE, and views of the lake and its footbridge, BELOW. That’s a self-portrait of Monet INSET, and a typical example of one of his paintings, RIGHT.

One horse race for exhibition top prize IT turned out to be a one horse race for the top prize at this year’s Wentworth Arts/Sunbeam Foods Sweatbox Art and Furniture Exhibition. Port Elliot’s John Fuller won the coveted Exhibition Prize for his outstanding piece dubbed ‘Trojan Horse’. John has been a keen contributor to the exhibition for a number of years, and was the judging panel of three’s unanimous choice. They described the ‘Trojan Horse’ as “a standout,” and the work was quickly snapped up for the Mildura Arts Centre soon after judging was completed. The Centre has a growing collection of unique Sweatbox Art pieces, having purchased works from the exhibition several times in recent years. The Mildura Arts Centre’s Julian Bowron, who has been an enthusiastic member of the judging panel for several years, described the work as beautifully conceived and rendered. He said the sweatbox art exhibition this year continued to challenge perceptions, while also pushing the envelope of what is art and craft. The Trojan Horse purchase was made because the work embodied “the spirit of the competition.” “The use of materials was absolutely in the spirit of the competition and challenged our fixed thinking about how they can be used,” Julian said. Success was running in

the Fuller family this year, with John’s son, Simon, from Victor Harbor, taking home the First Time Exhibitor award, valued at $250, for his ‘Table Lamp’. Other winners for this year’s 8th annual exhibition were: • Early Bird Contributor (the first to enter this year’s competition): David Robinson, Buronga. ($50) • Sculpture: Geoff Legg, Mildura. ‘Lap Harp’. ($750) • Furniture: Roger Moser, Cardross. ‘Cashbox’. ($750) • Youth: Edward Buffon, Wentworth, and Trav Dawes, Pomona. ‘Shoebox/ Chest/Trunk’ and ‘Classic Box’. ($250 shared)

Voting for the popular ‘People’s Choice’ will continue throughout the exhibition, with the winner to be announced early next

Friday night, West Darling Arts Regional Arts Development Ofﬁcer, James Giddey, said the organisers of the event never failed to be surprised and delighted by the works submitted for each year’s exhibition. “This year, again, is no exception,” he said. He said the ingenuity, craftsmanship and thoughtful rendering of ideas was once again outstanding, describing the exhibition as “a truly unique arts experience.” “You won’t see this anywhere else in the world,” he said. James said the judging panel comprising himself, Julian Bowron and Sunbeam Foods’ David Swain had spent some enjoyable hours choosing this year’s prize winners.

One horse race for exhibition top prize • From previous page

This year’s exhibition is once again housed in Wentworth’s historic Town Hall and open 11am to 4pm today, and 10am to 4pm tomorrow and Sunday. Entry is by gold coin donation, and Wentworth Arts is also running two raffles in conjunction with the exhibition. All monies raised by the sale of raffle tickets, entry fees and commission from the sale of exhibition pieces are used to foster the arts in the Wentworth Shire and wider Sunraysia community. More information is available by logging onto the Wentworth Arts website at www.wentworth.nsw.gov.au/wentworth arts, telephoning 0428 881 525 or 0427 745 494, or by emailing exhibition curator James Giddey at: jgiddey1@bigpond. com. Meanwhile, Wentworth Shire Council has unveiled the Rodney Hobbs miniature paddlesteamer collection, just in time for the Junction Rally this weekend. The collection of more than 20 intricately handcrafted miniature paddlesteamers is quite possibly the largest, and only collection of its kind, in the world. The collection represents many years of work by paddlesteamer enthusiast Rodney Hobbs. Wentworth Shire Mayor, Councillor Margaret Thomson, said this week that it was disappointing that the Shire has, as yet, been unable to find a venue to permanently display the collection. “But I delighted that the collection could be unveiled in time for the Junction Rally, and that the collection will play a pivotal role in adding to tourism appeal of the historic Port of Wentworth.” The Rodney Hobbs Paddlesteamer Collection can be viewed in tandem with the Sweatbox Art Exhibition in the Wentworth Town Hall between 11am and 4pm today, and 10am and 4pm tomorrow and Sunday.

• ECLECTIC MIX: The entries for this year’s exhibition range from Gavin Coombs ‘Wall Clock’, ABOVE, to his ‘Trike’ BELOW. Mildura’s Geoff Legg, RIGHT, won the Sculpture prize for his ‘Lap Harp’, a playable piece that has proved popular with visitors to the exhibition. Val Barnes from Mildura, created the ‘Pioneer Cupboard’, TOP LEFT, while the lamp, LEFT, was created by First Time Exhibitor Prize winner, Simon Fuller.

Residents of New South Wales’ Far West are at a class that is as much about learning

Butchers By GRANT MAYNARD MERBEIN’S Brian Gathercole has had a lot of experience as a butcher. So much that he seemed a logical choice to become the teacher for an innovative program that sees him passing on the skills of nearly four decades to those living in the rural reaches of New South Wales’ Western Division. For the past few months Brian has been travelling to the far-flung reaches of division to host day-long classes in the intricacies of his trade. “I teach all aspects of breaking up a carcass, wheth-

er it be lamb, beef or pork,” he said. His pupils to date have ranged from children of both sexes, to men and women in their 70s. And his classroom has been any convenient location on a growing list of station properties from Hatfield to the Anabranch. “We always try to pick a fairly central property so those tasking part do not have to travel vast distances,” Brian said. The program is an initiative of the Wentworth-based RMAP (Rangeland Management Action Plan) group, and according to one of the organisation’s commit-

tee members, Ron Rees, the program is much more than a course in the art of butchering. Ron says that while the course is the reason neighbouring landholders, and their family members, are coming together, he has noticed the get-togethers have a vital social component. “The course provides an opportunity for the landholders in a district to get to know each other a little better, and the chance to forget about the day-to-day challenges of running a grazing property,” he said. Ron said the prevailing drought had taken its toll on those trying to make a living

‘meating’ to learn new skills, or hone old ones, as it is a good, old-fashioned get-together...

in the bush on the land in the Western Division. And the course is providing a vital distraction from those worries, he said. Getting together, doing something different and having to concentrate on learning new skills or, for some of the older participants, honing some old ones, is proving to be a good tonic, Ron said. Since the program was established four months ago, Brian has hosted courses at four locations with 12 to 15 students at each. Those taking part pay $75 for the oneday course that teaches skills that will last a lifetime. Brian said the butchering

course was the brainchild of Edna Watts, formerly from Watara Station, but now living with her husband, ‘Cappy’, in Wentworth. “She was doing a course at TAFE (Sunraysia) at the time, and suggested a butchering course for landholders who are legally allowed to kill, process and consume their own meat,” Brian explained “It kind of took off from there.” Impressed with the idea, RMAP picked it up and ran with it, Ron explained. The course is self-funding. Brian supplies essentials like the sausage skins and seasoning and the fee charged

also pays for his travelling expenses, and his time as the teacher. The host supplies the carcasses for processing then Brian takes participants through the butchering process from start and finish. The carcasses ending up as the cuts we are so familiar with including chops, steaks and roasts… and as an old favourite -- sausages. It has proven to be a popular course among those in the bush, and there are plans for at least two more of the courses in coming months. And if you’re interested in an upcoming course give the RMAP office in Wentworth a call on (03) 5027 2416. • NOT AS EASY AS IT LOOKS: Scott Lesley, Gulthul Station, Euston, RIGHT, tries his hand at knotting sausages. It’s not easy and requires ‘the knack’.

• MINE HOST: Jim Harris, Round Plain Station, via Balranald, RIGHT, comes to grips with a forequarter roast.

Kerry O’Keeffe set to put new spin on grants night KERRY O’Keeffe’s wit, wisdom, and penchant for all things sporting has seen the former Test cricketer enjoy a very successful media career. A larger-than-life character, it was his quick, wicked humour and all-round sporting knowledge that won him a seat as a regular guest on the popular TV show ‘The Fat’, and now he is headed to Sunraysia. Kerry will be the guest of honour at the Merbein and District Community Bank grants night function later this month. “Getting Kerry to our area is a real coup,” the bank’s branch manager, Rob Libchard, said. “He is a real character, and is sure to add an entertaining dimension to our upcoming presentation night.” As a speaker, Kerry ranges from comedy – with a kit bag chocka with hilarious sporting yarns – through to passionate and inspiring addresses on motivation – ‘Being the best you can be’. Kerry has experienced a number of highs and lows, both in this sporting and personal life ... and his initial failure to adapt to the setbacks and adversity of life after cricket was the crucible in which he forged strong emotions on that subject. “His firm belief in honest communication and mentoring in the workplace, and on the sporting field, form the basis of an anecdote-spiced presentation sure to have you laughing your socks off one minute and searching within the next,” his promotional material reads. It describes him as “the man with the most distinctive laugh in

changed if there were substantial numbers of people wanting to hear Kerry speak. “In that case the night’s activities will be moved to the Mercy Theatre in Mildura,” he said. Invitations to attend the evening have gone out to the bank’s shareholders and other people wishing to attend should contact the Merbein Community Bank on 5025 1377. Tickets will be a very modest $25. Besides the distribution of grants funding, the evening’s activities will also include a birthday celebration. The bank’s oldest shareholder, centenarian Ray Slade, will cut the bank’s sixth birthday cake to mark another year of successful operations. This year the bank is set to give away more than $26,000 in grants to 14 community groups and organisations. That will bring the total the bank has distributed or pledged to more than $112,000 since the grants program was initiated six years ago. “We are very proud of the financial assistance our branch has been able to extend to the community,” Mr Libchard said. He explained the grant monies came from the bank’s Marketing Development Fund, the amount dictated by a Bendigo Bank formula based on the funds each branch had under management.

Who is Kerry O’Keeffe? NOW a columnist with News Limited, Kerry is also an ABC Radio Test cricket and One Day International commentator, a regular guest in the media, a Level III cricket coach, an elite coach for NSW ‘Emerging Blues’ squad and author of the bestsellers ‘According to Skull’ and ‘Turn ...Turn .. Turn, Please’. The leg spinning allrounder played 146 First Class matches scoring 4169 runs for an average of 26.05, taking 476 wickets at an average of 28.11 and taking 112 catches. He played in 24 tests scoring 644 runs at an average of 25.76; took 53 wickets for an average 38.07 and took 15 catches while touring New Zealand (1970, 1974, 1976), the West Indies (1973, 1979) and England (1977). the electronic media” and as being both “entertaining and provocative.” Kerry is set to speak on Wednesday night, July 28, at the Mildura City Soccer Club rooms, Kenny Park, his travel to the area generously funded by the bank’s Marketing Development Fund and board director, Geoff Izard, from Merbein Mushrooms. However, Mr Libchard has warned the venue may have to be

By VINNIE RODI ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S a trip thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so far failed to meet expectationsâ&#x20AC;Ś for one, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an overwhelming number of kangaroos and koalas lining Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streets, and no one seems to be anything like the late Steve Erwin. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what a group of 10 American photographic students expected to find when they arrived three weeks ago, with several admitting they knew little to nothing about our country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a whole, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Americans know anything about Australia,â&#x20AC;? 22-year-old Ashley Duschle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Steve Erwin and kangaroos, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about as far as my knowledge went. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was actually surprised when I got off the plane to not find more wildlife sitting around. I think most Americans believe Australia is just over-run with wildlife.â&#x20AC;? What the group has discovered during their â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Edge of the Outbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exchange has been â&#x20AC;&#x153;so much moreâ&#x20AC;? than they expected, with Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscapes, Aboriginal heritage, and general community leaving many in awe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly different to home,â&#x20AC;? Jess Fimbel, 20, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are just so friendly here, especially to strangers, which is something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not used too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Back home if a stranger asked

you for directions, or simply said hello, you would just keep walking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s common, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never had so many people smile at me on the street, or just say hello for no reason.â&#x20AC;? Here as part of an intensive study program, all 10 students/photographers have been living the life of a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;true blueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Aussie, learning the lingo, and generally learning more about Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture and history. This is while learning the ins and outs of what makes their cameras tick, and what it takes to capture an award-winning picture. The group is one of two from the US set to make the trip to Mildura, with the second to arrive next week. Thirty students in total will take part in the photo print media course Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s La Trobe University offers as part of its Bachelor of Visual Arts program, with the aim to provide students with an opportunity to explore Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture, and gain an insight into Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a program that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been running for a few years now,â&#x20AC;? La Trobe executive director Neil Fettling said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And each year weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played host to a diverse group of budding photographers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year has been no different, each student has come here with certain expectations, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done our best to show them all there is to know about our town, our culture, and way of life.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;˘ BRIDGING THE GAP: American photography students Ashley Deuschle, Jess Fimbel and Charlie McKeehan have spent the past three weeks in Mildura learning more about Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s indigenous culture, and general history, while also taking plenty of pictures of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscapes.

Neil said Milduraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ties to the Outback had been the main theme of the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experiences, with students getting the chance to visit Mutawintji National Park in Broken Hill, and plans to visit Mungo National Park also on the cards. Each excursion has seen the group mix with locals, listening to in-depth history lectures, and generally experience Australia.

In spite of the packed bus and there were two tour buses and several cars in the car park too the house and gardens were not crowded. It was even a pleasure strolling around the garden paths with similarly appreciative visitors on this sunny day. After a couple of hours we dragged ourselves away and, with a look through the gift shop in Monetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former studio, retreated to the Restaurant Les NymphĂŠas across the road for lunch. There were morning and afternoon trains between Vernon and Paris that allowed an unhurried day visit, as well as daily excursion buses from Paris to the gardens. Monetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gardens are open from 1 April to 1 November; 9.30am to 6pm, daily except Mondays. Full details can be found at www. fondation-monet.fr/uk/.

Lack of experience not reflected in their performance Jimmy and the Mirrors to rock the Setts By VINNIE RODI THEY might well be young in terms of experience, but if there’s one area Adelaide rockers ‘Jimmy and The Mirrors’ are fast becoming veterans, it’s knowing how to rock a crowd. Set to bring its “energetic indie-pop rock” style Mildura’s way tonight, Jimmy and The Mirrors bassist James Meegan assured the performance would be one to remember. “We pride ourselves on our high energy performance style, and our music is the type that’s easy to fall in love with, and easy to dance to,” he said. It’s a style the four-piece (James, Banjo Weatherald, Kaurna Cronin and Carlo Jensen) has made their own since forming three years ago, and one that has led to The Mirrors being named one of Adelaide’s fastest rising groups. James said the group was looking forward to playing outside the ‘City of Churches,’ after securing a Federal Government Contemporary Music grant earlier this year. It’s a break that will see the boys embark on an 11date tour of regional South

Australia, New South Wales and Victoria, with Mildura the first stop. “We’re really pumped,” James said. “This gig will be our first in Mildura and from what we’ve heard the crowds there are really into live music. “Over the years we’ve heard all these classic stories from bands touring to regional areas, and it seems like it’s those shows they remember years after. “Hopefully we can pull a big crowd to The Setts, and get an opportunity to show locals what we’re all about.” James said in preparation for the trip the group had sourced advice from arguably Mildura’s favourite rockers Jackson Firebird, a group they’ve played with numerous times within Adelaide’s festival scene.

“Jackson are probably the only band we know from Mildura,” he said. “When we first had the idea to include Mildura in this tour, they were the first guys we spoke to. “From what Jackson have told us we’re in for a great night, which has made us even more excited to make the trip.” Jimmy and The Mirrors have come a long way in a short time, with the group first forming during their school years. “We all went to the same school in Adelaide, and we all hung out with the same people,” James said. “The idea to actually form the group came about after we left school. “We were all heavily into music, but didn’t really know how to go about turning ourselves into a band.” James said that after several discussions, a trip to Spain had proven the catalyst to getting the group off the ground. “I was travelling around Spain when I bumped into one my old school friends, and as it turned out future band mate, Banjo,” he said. “We started talking and decided it was time to follow through on our idea to form this band.” James said that while some

bands find the task of naming themselves a tough ask, it had been a relatively simple exercise for the group. “The other three members had already formed ‘The Mirrors’ by the time I officially joined,” he said. “When I asked to join the band they immediately changed the name to Jimmy and The Mirrors. “I think it was there way of letting me join the group, without actually letting me join the group.” Since forming the band has worked hard to produce a blend of “good-time rock ‘n’ roll and indie-pop,” a style inspired by some of Australia’s biggest acts. “We really love that old 1980s rock style,” James said.

“I think Australian acts from that era like INXS and Paul Kelly have been our biggest influences, and it’s a style we’ve tried to adapt to our own ideas. “What we’ve created is this great party-vibe, and an energy that I think audiences can enjoy.” The boys have kept busy since their formation, releasing three EPs since 2008, while also going on to support numerous Australian artists including Jonathan Boulet, Dukes of Windsor and Art vs Science to name just a few. Earlier this year Jimmy and The Mirrors were selected as one of South Australia’s “six most promising bands” by Adelaide street-press magazine ‘Rip It Up,’ while also be-

ing invited to play at the Fuse Festival’s ‘Explode!’ event, which aims to showcase upand-coming acts to both industry professionals and fans alike. “It’s definitely been a busy few years,” James said. “And so far things are going along nicely.” Next week’s performance will be free to the public, something that highly appeals to James. “There’s no excuse for locals to not come out and listen to us,” he said. “We want to see a big crowd at The Setts, and really get the place rocking.” More information is available by visiting www.myspace. com/jimmyandthemirrors, or by contacting The Setts on 5023 0474.

A profitable enterprise THE annual Salvation Army Red Shield appeal is $500 to the good, thanks to the fund-raising efforts of students at Mildura Senior College. On Friday, May 2, college Business Management students hosted a Market Day – the activity being part of their assessment for Unit 1 of the subject. The students organised, and ran several market stalls during a lunch period with the aim of making a profit – simulating a small business. It was a successful day with the students realising a profit that allowed them to donate $500 to the Red Shield Appeal.

Free internet safety seminar INTERNET safety issues will be squarely in the spotlight later this month at a free seminar in Irymple. As part of its Cybersafety Outreach program, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), is delivering a free internet safety awareness presentation for parents and carers at Irymple Secondary College on Mon-

day, July 26 from 7pm. The seminar presentations will provide valuable information about the risks confronting children online, and offer tools and tips to help make their internet experiences safe and positive, a school spokesperson said this week. Topics to be addressed include: • The ways children use

the internet and emerging technologies • Potential risks for children online, such as cyber bullying, illegal content, inappropriate contact, identity theft, grooming and predatory activity, and • Tips to help children stay safe online. The presentation is thorough, non-technical and conducted by accredit-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We’re not a Deeply presidential concerned Sir, I am deeply concountry... cerned about the imSir, Since when did Australia have an elected president? In Australia we elect a political party with policies that we believe will be the best for our country and ourselves. The elected members of the political party we elect then select the person they feel is the person to lead the party. That’s the way it has been since Federation. So why all the talk about “I voted for Mr Rudd, not Ms Gillard.” It is now very clear why Mr Rudd was dumped by his party – he thought he was the president; He thought the public voted for him, and him only. Sorry Mr Rudd, it doesn’t work like that in Australia. We vote for our local Member, and the policies he or she believes in. I don’t remember seeing a Kevin Rudd on the ballot paper I used! Unfortunately, Australian politics has become all about one or two people. This is not America. We don’t have a president running the country, and the sooner our politicians and media remember that, the better this country will become. Ian Browne Mildura

minent injection of fluoride into our local water supply. It is a toxic substance that has real side-effects, even with very little contact. I occasionally visit Robinvale where the water is fluoridated. After showering in the town’s water, I came out of the shower with very dry skin. I have no doubt that this is caused by the fluoride in the water because the same thing does not happen when I shower in Mildura. The Anti-Fluoride Association of Mildura conducted a referendum on the injection of fluoride into our water supply and it found that 94 percent of the Mildura Rural City Council population do not want fluoride in the city’s water. What more evidence does the Victorian Government need before they will listen to us? The Victorian Government has illegally forced a medication onto the people, against the wishes of many citizens and this is against the terms of the United Nations Charter and the Nuremberg Code. The Victorian Government are only listening to the views held by vested interests, who believe that fluoride is good for teeth without looking into the effects on other parts of the human body, especially when fluoridated water is swallowed. There is plenty of re-

Despite only being in existence for a little over 12 months, Mr McIntosh said there has been significant interest in the concept. “When I started in May last year I had

about 18 trees in the Sydney Botanic Gardens to kick things off,” he said. There are now more than 430 trees on the register. “I’ve put most of them on, but I’ve had a wonderful amount of support

contribution to technology and education in Australia, including ‘Australian ICT Innovator of the Year’ and ‘Outstanding Achievement by an Educator’ at the National Quality Schooling Awards.

search out there which shows that fluoride can cause toxic reactions and long-term organ damage to the human body. I urge the Victorian Government to reconsider its decision to introduce fluoride into our water supply. I also urge the people of the Mildura region to fight for their basic human right until the Victorian Government stop this mass medication. Jay Smith Mildura

Right to choose Sir , After reading Bette Schulz’s letter (Fluoride ‘paradise’) I came to the conclusion it should not only be a debate on whether fluoride is good OR bad for you (that’s everybody’s individual right to decide,) but why is fluoride beingforced upon people who strongly oppose it? Who dictates what we need in our bodies? Ourselves or our elected politicians? I am aware the Australian Government has researched and de-

clared it safe to drink water laced with fluoride, but I am also aware most of Europe has now banned fluoride after using it in their water supplies for some time. It now seems to me, individuals and only individuals, should decide if they, or their children, will be taking fluoride. Nobody else has that right. It amazes me to learn that a referendum was conducted in Mildura by an anti-fluoride group as required for it to petition Parliament only to get the run around from the higher-ups. More amazing is the fact that of the 10percent (minimum requirement) of the population of Mildura that took part in the referendum, 94 out of every 100 electors indicated they did not want fluoride in their drinking water (that’s 3916 people). I have friends that live in Castlemaine who tell me they had a staggering 4000 signatures trying to stop fluoride being added to their water, and guess what happened there? Yep, they now get their dose of fluoride daily. I now understand Member for Mildura, Peter Crisp, has since lodged two motions for debate in State Parliament on this matter. Sounds good, but the problem with that is that the Government can choose not to debate the issue. Well just some friendly advice for Peter, in order to pull that one off. I suggest you change your surname to Pan... Frank Di Maria Mildura

He was a ‘doodler’ as kid, an exhibiting artist as a teenager, and still feels an increasingly strong urge to create as a man in his 30s. Now Merbein’s Rick Kolpin is working hard at making a name for himself in the amazing world of airbrush art.

All I need is the air... By GRANT MAYNARD

mthoeto r men • HARD AT IT: Rick, INSET, works on one of his latest works – a large shop sign for a local upholsterer that will take many hours and RIGHT, a tiger in black and white on canvas and his ‘Frog on the Toilet Seat’.

IT is hard not to be impressed… the subject just seems to take shape effortlessly as the paint flows in a series of gentle ‘snake’s hisses’ from the nozzle of Rick Kolpin’s airbrush ‘gun’. A picture of concentration, he is oblivious to his surrounding as he focusses on putting the finishing touches to his latest commission. And the result is a sort of magic that us mere mortals can only aspire too. Rick has been airbrush painting seriously for the past two to three years, but he has dabbled in the art for many more. He established his business – Rix Fx – about 12 months ago, and while he is building it up usually works about three hours a night after putting in eight at his day-job. He works most weekends too, in the backyard shed he is increasingly calling home as he hones his skills for what he hopes will one day become his fulltime occupation. It wasn’t always this way, he explains: “I started out wanting to be a jockey.” After finishing his schooling at the then Mildura Tech aged 15, he enrolled in an Advanced Certificate in Art Design at TAFE. He all but completed the course before he moved to Cranbourne to pursue his dream of being a jockey. But he missed his hometown and his family, moving back here to ride track work for a local race horse trainer in the mornings and filling in the rest of his days by resuming his arts studies at TAFE. Then fate intervened. A motorcycle accident on Deakin Avenue put paid to his horse riding aspirations,

and also ensured he spent the next 12 months in a long, and often painful, recovery process. During that time he took up riding again, but this time his mount was a bicycle. It helped him regain his fitness and strength.

It was probably his stalled career as a jockey that lead to Rick having an interesting vocational pedigree. Out of work after his accident, the opportunity arose for him to take up a traineeship with a local crash repairer once he was fit again. He joined the team as what is known these days as an assembler, but in those days by the colloquial and all-encompassing title of ‘panel beater’. That opened the door to spray painting, a step that would, years later, lead him down the path to airbrush work. During this stage of his working career he could often be found rejuvenating his own cars, and those of his mates, and sometimes that meant some airbrush artwork. After leaving the crash repair trade, he worked for a time as a spray painter with the late Stan Perry at Buronga Engineering. Rick says it was Stan who instilled in him the eye for detail, and attention to same. After his stint at Buronga Engineering, he re-entered the motor trade, this time in spare parts. Rick is now service manager at GBC Motors, a firm he has worked with for the past few years. He is the son of Brian Kolpin, and his uncles include Rowan or ‘Chippa’, well known as a sports broadcaster and for his years in the motor spares trade, and Trevor, a former media photographer. Since he first started airbrushing, Rick has lent his talents to a staggering array of projects. Some requests he acknowledges have been a real surprise, like the pair of women’s shoes he was asked to colour-match for a special outfit. The woman in question had the style of shoe she

wanted, but could not get them in the right colour. “I matched them to her outfit by spray painting them with a colour I mixed up,” he said. Other interesting projects have included a snowboard, interesting because here in Sunraysia we’re a long way from the snow! He has also airbrushed designs on cars, road-going

motorcycles, speedway outfits, boats and the odd shed wall. Rick enjoys the variety airbrushing offers, and says what he paints in terms of a subject, and what he paints on, are limited only by his customer’s imagination. “The paint will go on virtually anywhere,” says Rick who admits to relishing a challenge.

And a look at some of his past projects is proof of that – from new signs painted to look old; to personalised frogs and lilly pads on a toilet lid! Now, he is becoming increasingly interested in creating personalised artworks for customers. For this he takes a photograph, say of a favoured car or motorcycle, or maybe a

pet like a horse or dog, and renders them in paint. That is pretty straight forward, he says, but he likes to add a dash of flair. “What I can do is rework the original photo. I can include any background a customer may want. That means a dog snapped in a Mildura backyard, for instance, can be transported to the wilds of Alaska,” he says.

who also enjoys pushing the boundaries. You’ll find Rick, and a display of his artwork, at many of the local markets, or you can telephone him on 5025 2189 and leave a message. • FOOTNOTE: Rick’s grandmother, Mona Gray, was an artist of note, so maybe art runs in his veins.

Annie Prideaux Civil Celebrant Weddings: Australia and Island

Casey Cameron

THE bride and groom might have originally hailed from Ouyen and Underbool respectively, but the wedding was in Kingston SE when Cassey Weston married Cameron Gloster earlier this year. The glowing couple were married on the Marine Parade Foreshore, the sea providing a picturesque backdrop to proceedings. Cassey is the oldest daughter of Larry and Lisa Weston, now living in Marong but formerly of Ouyen, while Cameron is the youngest son of Robert and Colleen Gloster, of Underbool (AJ Gloster & Sons). Cassey wore an original Henri Joseph ‘Project Runway’ gown, with a chapel length train in ivory satin and silver Chantilly lace. She wore a 1.0ca diamond necklace that was given to her by her parents. Cassey’s bridesmaids where Megan Carmody (Parkdale), Leah Stone (Geelong), and her sister, Amie Weston (Bendigo). The girls each wore a black, satin ‘Flaire’ dress. Cameron was attended by his cousin Dale Stone (Geelong), Ashley Corbett (Walpeup) and Ross Stone (Walpeup). Cameron surprised Cassey when their son, Frankie, toddled down the aisle (with his Poppy) in a little tuxedo with coat tails, handing Dale the rings for the ceremony. It was, the couple said, a very cute and special moment that will never be forgotten! Cassey and Cameron’s wedding reception was held at the ‘Old Wool Store’ in Kingston. The refurbished building and restaurant provided a stunning venue to celebrate their special day. With Shannon Blandthorn acting as host; Larry, Robert, Megan, Dale and Cameron all made brilliant heartfelt speeches, reﬂecting on past experiences and sharing humorous stories. Cassey and Cameron returned to their home, and their jobs, in Underbool with Frankie following their marriage. The couple thanks their respective parents for their unyielding support on the day.

Uranus, your ruling planet, turns retrograde on Monday in your ideas zone. You may become even more aware of your intuition and your ability to simply “know” the answers to impossible questions or problems. As Mercury moves into Leo, so you and your partner may find yourselves talking and sharing your feelings more often. Make it an ongoing habit to check in with each other. The Lunar Eclipse in Cancer on Sunday could bring changes to work or health issues.

Venus may help soothe any ruffled feathers in terms of your love life and other associations. Any criticisms may be countered by a determination to meet each other half way. The Solar Eclipse on Sunday takes place in your creative zone and could bring opportunities to make better use of your creative skills. Perhaps you could create a business that’s based on any artistic talents you might have. If you fall in love, don’t commit until the following week.

There is still plenty of action in your adventure zone, but as Uranus is now turning retrograde, some of your explorations may be more philosophical or academic. You might be keen to explore patterns of belief and relinquish any that seem to be holding you back. The weeks ahead are all about taking it to the limit. Don’t allow negative blocks to prevent you from getting as much out of life as you can. The Eclipse on Sunday could bring powerful dreams. Venus joins Mars in your sign and makes you feel loved and loveable. You’re still on the rampage and keen to get ahead with plans and projects. Sometimes you might even override others’ plans in order to get your way - not obviously but subtly. The Solar Eclipse in your social zone brings many opportunities to move in new circles and get in with the right crowd. You may not even have a choice in this matter. Que sera, sera!

Career matters take center stage with a Solar Eclipse in Cancer. You may find that you’re pushed into a new situation where your job is concerned, whether you feel ready for it or not. This might mean getting a promotion or finally obtaining the job of your dreams. Due to issues at your job, you could decide to leave one line of work and take up another, which ultimately proves very rewarding. Your love life continues to be unpredictable This is a great time to network and think about expanding your social connections. You’re certainly a lot more proactive about being seen in all the right places. Venus moves into Virgo later in the week, which makes everything very cozy. The Solar Eclipse in Cancer on Sunday rings in the changes, especially when it comes to higher education and academic studies. If you want to get a degree, this might be the time to go for it.

You’re keen to make a splash in your career and you’re happy to be in the spotlight. Mars in Virgo encourages you to take action and get results creating a detailed schedule and planning ahead. The more you do this, the more successful you’ll be. Meanwhile, Jupiter and Uranus in Aries give your creative abilities a massive boost. You love to gamble and the stakes have never seemed better. Don’t blow your fortune in the wind. Take a calculated risk The week ahead is building to a Solar Eclipse in your relationship zone, which is going to ring in the changes. This Eclipse is like a turbocharged New Moon, which will push you to take things to the next inevitable stage. If your relationship is strong, you may decide to initiate a challenging project together. If you don’t see eye to eye, you may want to separate and go it alone. Whatever the scenario, you’ll benefit further down the line.

8. In which direction to stalactites point?

Mars in Virgo is stirring up your communication zone, which may mean you have a lot more administrative tasks to attend to than usual. You’ll be more determined than ever to get in touch with old friends, brothers, and sisters. The New Moon Eclipse in your sign brings you a chance to plant new seeds. You may not have planned to make changes so soon, but it looks as though you’re going to be propelled into fresh adventures. Enjoy yourself!

As Uranus turns retrograde in Aries, so you may begin to reflect on why you attract the kind of friends you do. Not that there is anything wrong with them. Actually, they may have been very helpful lately in a madcap kind of way. Then there’s the Solar Eclipse in Cancer and your personal financial zone, which could encourage you to reorganize your financial affairs or perhaps become more proactive where your money is concerned. It just takes courage!

Your best ideas come naturally and instinctively. This week you may see the light as a Solar Eclipse in Cancer and your communication zone helps you get a fresh perspective on an ongoing problem. Mercury moves into Leo and your home zone, which will help you bring a few creative flourishes to any DIY work you’ve been doing. When Venus enters Virgo, you may find yourself falling in love with an ultra-cool someone who has plenty of style!

Mitsubishi’s stylish tonner ute gets face-lift By PHILIP LORD THERE are many reasons for buying for a top-end dual-cab ute and few of them have to do with the bare necessities of carting work stuff. Sure, you would buy a tarted-up ute as a weekday workhorse, but with an eye for being able to use it on the weekend. In the past five years, topend dual-cabs have become much more attractive and comfortable – and they are typically cheaper than a comparable 4WD wagon.

Despite acknowledging the recreational and anything-butbusiness needs that drove the sales of the luxury utes, when Mitsubishi released the current-shape Triton dualcab in 2006, it was roundly criticised for substituting style over load-carrying substance – the tray was considered too short, even for a typically abbreviated dual-cab pickup tray. Even if you don’t lug cement around in your flash Triton,

you might want to load the motorbikes for a weekend away with the boys or fill the cargo area with camping gear for the family holidays you know, that recreational stuff dual-cab utes do on the weekends. The ML Triton came up short. Let us deal with the business end of this vehicle first. The tray of this latest version of

Up front, the Triton has a new heart. The 2.5-litre turbodiesel replaces the 3.2-litre and while it has the goods on paper it doesn’t quite deliver when you drive it. Sure the mid-range is strong, it uses an acceptable amount of fuel with a 9.5L/100km average, but this engine just isn’t especially smooth or quiet and lacks punch off the

the dual-cab Triton has been lengthened to 1505 mm and total tray height raised to 460 mm – an improvement of 14 per cent. While the styling has suffered as a result – it looks a little ungainly from certain angles, leaving no doubt that this is the new extended tray model – it makes the load area much more useful.

mark. Turbo lag isn’t unusual, but the Triton’s new engine seems to have a fair bit of it. The five-speed auto is a smooth-shifting unit without being remarkably so, while the four-wheel drive system, which offers part- or full-time operation, is still one of the most sophisticated systems on the market after all these years – even though the

awkwardly placed transfer lever bumps the driver’s leg when in 2WD mode. The cabin is unchanged in key areas over the spacious and comfortable Triton that we have become familiar with in the last four years. Some occupants will find the front seat bases too flat and unsupportive but otherwise the seating is among the best in class – plenty of room and the rear seat occupants are in for a treat – it’s probably the most comfy bench seat in the dual-cab market. Though dual-cab utes are more comfortable and better appointed than they’ve ever been, it doesn’t mean that they have shrugged off their rudimentary load-hauling ride characteristics. Like others in its cohort, the Triton is a stiff-riding vehicle when unladen, but at least the Triton doesn’t attempt to knock the wind out of you over sharp bumps like some competitors. It is among the smootherriding utes, yet with it its chassis is also one of the most rubbery in its responses. The Triton may look sharp but it isn’t the sharp handler among utes. Although the new engine does not represent the pinnacle of Mitsubishi engineering, the Triton as a whole makes a strong case. Its ride refinement, safety, comfort and now more usable load space are features that will make many owners happy to overlook the engine’s mild shortcomings. © GoAutoMedia 2010

Drop-dead gorgeous and topless to boot By MARTON PETTENDY FORGET everything you know about Maserati convertibles because the boutique Italian brand finally has a drop-dead gorgeous new drop-top that invites no comparisons with the dynamically and ergonomically flawed twoseater Spyders of old. The craftily named, GranTurismo coupebased GranCabrio not only represents Maserati’s first fully fledged four-seater convertible, but is also the brand’s first no-stringsattached rival for established top-shelf cabrios such as the Mercedes-Benz SL, Porsche 911 Cabriolet and Aston Martin DB89 Volante. At a relative snip more than the 5.5-litre V8 SL500 and BMW’s 5.0-litre V10-engined M6 Convertible, however, the $338,000 GranCabrio costs only about $20,000 more than the GranTurismo S coupe and will be even more exclusive. Scarcity and its undoubtable Pininfarina style, presence and unashamed flamboyance will be key selling points for the GranCabrio, but prospective customers will also be glad to learn the talented GranTurismo has also injected a big enough dose of competence to relegate any lingering memories of the Spyder to one’s rearmost lobe. A day-long drive over some of the most punishing, ill-

maintained rural roads in the trendy but long neglected Byron Shire of northern NSW this week proved the GranCabrio has the substance to match its style. Maserati really appears to have done its homework with the GranCabrio, which piles on a relatively paltry 100kg in kerb weight over the GranTurismo upon which

the expensive optional windblocker, which makes the rear seats redundant too. The rest of the GranCabrio’s weight gain goes into cabrio-specific developments like unique audio and climate control systems that automatically adjust according to cabin noise levels, seat-mounted side/thorax airbags, well concealed pop-up rollover

The rangy wheelbase liberates more rear legroom than any convertible available, including the Bentley Continental GTC, making the deeply bucketed twin rear seats as commodious as the front pews – at least with the roof down. Unfortunately, the generous rear legroom is not matched by headroom, which is tight, but the GranCabrio compensates somewhat for this with twin rear cupholders, effective rear climate-control outlets, a large centre console and twin outboard armrests – all lavishly lined in leather. But the GranCabrio is not a triumph of style over substance and delivers the things that matter most to buyers at this level.

Vintage workhorse revived

Bob Twyford SUNRAYSIA’S resident vintage tractor expert Bob Twyford has spent the past five weeks meticulously restoring this rare 1917 Case Cross tractor in preparation for this weekend’s Junction Rally at Wentworth. While he bought the tractor four years ago from a farm clearance sale at Rochester, it’s only been in recent week’s he’s had time to work on it, bringing it back from what was basically a wreck and some boxes of parts, to what you see on this page. The tractor itself was one of the first ‘compact’ tractors to hit the market, as Bob explains. “When tractors first started coming onto the market they were big American prairie tractors, in the ‘20s and ‘30s,” he said. “Farmers at that time were phasing from horses and carts, and they weren’t buying tractors to begin with because they were just too big - they were huge things. “So what Case came up with was an idea for a strong, compact tractor to corner that market for those moving from horses to machinery.” The key to its compactness is its sideways mounted four cylinder petrol engine, which allows for a much shorter wheelbase. This model Case, the Cross, takes its name from its ‘cross’ mounted powerplant. It was one of the first compact tractors, and although expensive at the time - you could buy four Fordson tractors for the price of one Case Cross - more than 17,000 were sold due to its quality, compactness, and the fact that it was relatively powerful for its size. It was one of the first tractors to feature a pressurised lubrication system - most at the time were ‘splash fed’, rather than fed oil from an oil pump. To see the Case Cross running, it will be on display at the Junction Rally this weekend. The Mildura Weekly will feature a more indepth look at Bob’s Case Cross and how he restored it in upcoming issues.

Hattah’s heroes

Photo: Ghost Rider Photography

By BEN PISCIONERI LAST weekend’s Hattah Desert Race featured the most competitive field ever assembled for the four-hour off-road torture test. Led by a fleet of KTM-based riders, the field included several former and current Australian enduro champions, including the hottest property on the current Australian enduro scene, Toby Price. Price lived up to expectations, leaving the rest of the field in his wake after Saturday’s prologue, beating his nearest rival, five-time Hattah Desert Race winner Warren Smart, by almost 20 seconds. But that was the prologue. The race was a different story. Despite the massive margin (by Hattah prologue standards) between Price and Smart, riders would leave the start line the following morning only a second or two behind each other, negating any perceived advantage from the prologue. Excitement was palpable on the startline the following morning as more than 100 riders assembled for the big race. As expected, Price shot out in front, but had local favourite Warren Smart hot on his heels pushing hard, with former winner and Price’s team mate Ben Grabham further back in third. The two leaders were neck and neck throughout the opening lap, and most of the second lap, before the unthinkable happened. Smart ran out of fuel just 1.5 kilometres from the pits. This took the pressure off Price, who stretched out a massive lead and was never headed, crossing the finish line after almost four grueling hours and eight laps of the 35-kilometre Hattah course more than four-and-a-half minutes ahead of team mate Ben Grabham. KTM team boss Brad Williscroft rounded out the podium, making for a KTM whitewash of the event, with team mate Jarrod Bewley in fourth and KTM rider Todd Smith fifth.

Dylan Ryan was the stand-out Sunraysia-based rider following Smart’s retirement, narrowly missing out on a top-10 finish in a field peppered with full-time professional enduro riders. It was enough for sixth in the most competitive class of the event, the Up to 450cc four-stroke category. Smart, the only rider able to match Price’s race pace, running out of fuel shocked many pundits, but he wasn’t the only rider, and certainly not the only top-tier rider. Honda rider Jacob Smith, who won last year’s Australasian Safari, also ran out of fuel. He was provided with fuel by spectators on the course, which was enough to get him back to the pits, but left him disqualified due to receiving outside assistance on the track.

Another rider with years of experience at the Hattah Desert Race who also fell short of fuel was Ty Rayfield, and there were plenty of other riders. Some put it down to the nearperfect ground conditions which, while good for minimal dust and great grip, worked engines much harder, using more fuel. Others put it down to the extra length of the opening lap, which was a new concept at this year’s event. But it was a problem the KTM team appeared to avoid, with no fuel economy issues, though some riders did top up their tanks before the start, which was delayed,

which may have helped get them home safely. Speaking after the race, Smart said the sheer pace of this year’s race and the aforementioned ground conditions would have contributed to the additional fuel usage. “That was definitely the hottest pace this race has been run at,” the five-time winner said. “We were on the stopper, holding it flat, the entire time. There just wasn’t any backing off. “When we test, which includes fuel consumption testing, you just don’t ride like that. Your training isn’t at that level. But when you work out your fuel calculations you do take that into account, but the ground conditions and the extra distance on that first lap could all have contributed.” Other locals to do well included Josh Murtagh (third in Up to 250cc four-stroke) and Ben Brooks and Lewis Gunn, who finished first and second respectively in the Clubman class. The Junior Hattah Desert Races last Saturday provided an exciting glimpse at the future of the sport and featuring some blisteringly quick young riders, some of whom would give many senior riders a run for their money. The 13-16 Years race featured a titanic battle between visiting riders Dylan Long and Lachlan Terry, with the former coming out on top. Sunraysia’s Nathan Trigg rounded out the podium among a star-studded junior field featuring a host of State and Australian champions. The 7-12 Years event showcased the youngest Hattah combatants with Sunraysia’s Harrison Baker winning a neck-and-neck battle against Angus Kelly for the top step on the podium in the 85150cc class. The race had spectators on the edges of their seats as Baker only took the win on the last corner of the final lap. Another local, Taylor Adams, meanwhile was the victor in the 65cc class, making for a successful outing for the Sunraysia riders.

Soccer teams playing for pride PRIDE will be on the line for our local soccer stars this weekend, with Sunraysia to host the first Leslie Refrigerated Transport 2010 Interleague Challenge. Local players will come up against the best from the Broken Hill and Riverland competitions, with the tournament to be held across two days at Aero Ovals starting from 10am tomorrow. Players representing the Under 18 Men, Senior Women’s and Senior Men have been hard at training for the past month in preparation for the event, with final Sunraysia squads announced this past Wednesday ahead of the competition. Football Federation VictoriaSunraysia branch manager Vince Dimasi said the concept was one he was hoping would continue in to the future. “Obviously we’ll base any future events on the success of this one,” he said. “But as a concept, it’s one players, coaches and officials are excited to be involved in. “When we were coming up with the idea of an interleague competition, we immediately thought of the Riverland and Broken Hill competitions, being the closest football bodies to Sunraysia. “It was an idea both leagues were quick to support, and we’re hoping we can turn the Challenge into an annual event.” Vince said where other interleague competitions would be split into separate age group championships, this tournament would see league coming up against league. “We’re only going to award one trophy,” he said. “Which will go to the league that finishes with the most wins across all three age groups. “Rather than awarding the best

Archery has come a long way since the days of Robin Hood, with bows more complex, and the sport relatively simple to learn. This week the Mildura Weekly’s VINNE RODI had the chance

Mildura’s best kept secret THE tiny shed, practically in the middle of nowhere, is home to arguably “Mildura’s best kept secret.” Or at least that’s the belief of Mallee Sunset Field Archers Inc. president, Bob Maynard. “Not many people know about us,” the 63-year-old said. “We’re this little club out in the bush, but I’m telling you we’re this town’s best kept secret.” Pulling up to the club, it was clear Bob had a point - with the club rooms, situated some four kilometres along the Red Cliffs Meringur Road (heading from Red Cliffs towards Merrinee), a perfect spot for archery enthusiasts. Members boast plenty of land to both hunt and practice on, with the site home to functioning showers, toilets, a kitchen area, a campfire, and seven world-class ranges, equipped with both ‘3D’ and ‘straw bale’ targets. As Bob explained it’s the perfect place for a camp-out, something members regularly enjoy.

“It one of the main reasons people join up,” he said. “A majority of archers enjoy a good camp, or hunting trip, something we tend to organise on a regular basis. “It’s a great way to form friendships, and something people can enjoy with their families.” It wasn’t long before Bob got down to explaining the finer points of the sport, specifically showing me the all-important hardware. Now when people think bow and arrows, they immediately think of a simple wooden design, a concept that derives from Robin Hood movies, and playing cowboys and Indians in the backyard. In reality bows are far more complex, and in most cases easier to use. The first bow Bob pulled out of his ‘travel case’ was a compound hunting bow, fully equipped with a sight and other aids, accompanied by a number of different arrows, including broad-heads, designed for bringing down game, and the

more common narrow tips, used in competition. “And this is just the tip of the iceberg,” he explained. “Several archers prefer the old-style longbows. These can be as tall as a person. Others like using crossbows. “The options are endless really.” Technology has ensured bows are becoming easier to use, something Bob said was a real advan-

tage for first-timers in the sport. “My compound bow for example has a release aid,” he said. “Once I draw it back, I could stand there all day, in relative comfort, and wait for the perfect moment to release. “That’s not the case with the old-style longbow, once you draw that back you have to let it go relatively quickly, because it’s just too hard to hold.

“The beauty of our sport is anyone can take it up, no matter how strong they are, because technology, and advancements in bow and arrow designs, have made it far easier to learn.” And it’s relatively cheap too, with Mallee Sunset Field Archer memberships $60 for adults, $40 for children, and $90 for families. • Continued next page.

THIS weekend’s round of Under 16 Sunraysia Junior Football League matches will see some interesting contests, with several teams needing a win all four remaining games to stay in the finals hunt. Mildura has the toughest run home, set to come up against three of the current top four teams, and fifth placed Merbein. The two standout games of the round will be Merbein and Red Cliffs, and the Mildura versus Irymple clash. The Tigers went down to second-placed Irymple by two points last week, while the Magpies had a 55-point win over South Mildura. This is a danger game for the Tigers, who have fallen away after showing early form, while the ‘Maggies’ have a real possibility of making finals if they win. The inclusion of Will Lowry, who had a run in the SFNL seniors, and the return of Lewis Makepeace has made a big difference to Merbein, and with Ashley Rowe firing this will boost their chances. The Tigers missed ‘Nugget’ Peart last week, with the side’s back six also giving their opponents too much latitude. Red Cliffs will need to tighten up if it is to keep the ‘Pies to a losing score. The last time these two met, the Tigers dished out a 126-point flogging, and while they are favourites to win, it won’t be as easy. Mildura will meet secondplaced side Irymple in a mustwin clash for the Demons. The Demons got a fright against bottom side Robinva-

le last round, winning by just 11 points against a side that is yet to win a game. The Swallows have lost only two games for the season, managing to beat the Tigers without five of its regular players in their previous encounter. Jake Burford is giving the Swallows plenty up forward with his strong marking, with centre half-forward Jeff Ladd also showing ability. The Demons have the players to match Irymple, but are simply not playing well enough as a team. Dylan Murphy, Josh Rogerson, Cameron Gunn and Daniel Shaw were all mem-

bers of the recently successful Under 15 Schoolboys side, who won the V/Line Fourth Division Cup in Melbourne, and will need to show that form to beat the Swallows this weekend. South Mildura take on Imperials, and after Souths’ huge loss to Merbein last round, they should bounce back with a win. Both sides have been disappointing this year, and for Imps this will be the first time, in a long time, they will not feature in finals. The same can be said about the Bulldogs. They

started the season well with a win against Mildura but have struggled with only three wins since. Both sides suffer from a lack of key players around the ground, although both have superb individual performers. Dylan Darby, Nick Mee and Jacson Collins are consistent for Imps, as are Damond Duffield, Ethan Goldsworthy and Jacob Chisari for the Bulldogs. This will be a close tussle, with the ‘Dogs to take the points. Wentworth and Robinvale will meet at the Gol Gol Football Club ground (where all junior matches will be played tomorrow from 9am). The Roos are travelling well, with only one loss for the season, while the Eagles are yet to open their account. This match will have Wentworth as slight favourites, and rightly so, however the Eagles have been playing well during the past few weeks and have brought back some key players in Blake Karagiannis, Gasper Chirchgilia and Jaunne Greonwald from the Under 18’s. Todd Stacey, Aiden Calarco, Jarrod Bryce, Blake Tolley and Lau Vave, who are regular players for the Eagles, have welcomed the return of these experienced players, and have shown their side is capable of matching it with most teams in the competition. However, that won’t be the case against Wentworth, who are a class above, with the Eagles to remain win-less after the weekend.

capable of producing accurate hits over long distances. It makes for an incredible sight, with to see some of the region’s best archers in action, discovering a club that may be…

• From previous page. Bows range from $250 to $2000, depending on the style, and are made to last. “In the long run it’s a relatively cheap sport to get involved with,” Bob said. The club itself is still relatively new to the region, having formed just 17 years ago. The brainchild of locals Dave Morris and Phil Watkins, the duo formed the club simply because they felt the district needed it. The main thought was to create a place families could feel at home, mixing with other families to create closer ties within the community. Phil, now 60, was already an accomplished archer at the time, and had only just moved to the district from Adelaide. Now the South Australian Branch Controller of the Australian Bowhunters Association, the sport’s national body, Phil said he had been determined to see archery established in the region. “I had previously been involved in a number of archery clubs and

competitions in Adelaide, and I have been shooting a bow and arrow since I was a kid,” he said. “For me archery is about selfcompetition. While you’re always competing against other archers, the real challenge is competing against yourself, trying to better your achievements. “It’s certainly something I wanted to bring to Mildura, and when I met Dave, someone who had a

Initially the clubhouse was a tiny tin shed, and while to some extent not much has changed (apart from the shed getting bigger over the years), the club has slowly turned itself into one of the best archery facilities in Victoria, if not the country.

Since that initial meeting, the

The success of the club will see the group host the National Titles again in 2012, with talks the club could host a World Championship

in coming years. “If we were to get a World Championships that would be huge,” Bob said. “I know when the Nationals were held we had something like 1000 people take part. “And while not all of them competed, it was certainly a sight seeing them sitting around campfires, and generally enjoying our facilities.” In the meantime Bob said the club’s aim was to encourage more locals to take up the sport, especially families. “Anyone can take part, our members range from four-years-old to 80, and it’s a sport that can be learned at any age,” he said. “My wife (Marilynne) is the perfect example. She only took up the sport a couple of years ago, and now she loves it. “We’re planning on hosting a ‘come and try day’ on Saturday, July 17, from 9am, and we’re encouraging families to bring the kids, and try the sport. “There’ll be a barbecue, and a number of our members will be on

Survival, war and sport – the bow and arrow has done it all WHEN the everyday person thinks of archery and bows and arrows, it’s fair to assume their minds turn to a certain British character and his band of ‘merry men.’ And while Robin Hood is without doubt the top ‘searched’ item when it comes to today’s archery enthusiasts, the bow and arrow dates back long before Robin first surfaced. The first stone arrowheads to be discovered were found in Africa, and are said to date back to 50,000 BC. Used alongside the first spears, these original arrows were used purely as hunting tools. In fact it wasn’t until

some 45,000 years later that the first case of bows and arrows being used in war can be found, with the Egyptians using the weapon against Persian invaders. While most bows of today are made from aluminium, the Egyptians were thought to have created their bows using wood tipped

with animal horn, held together with animal sinew and glue. The unstrung bow resembled a ‘C’ shape, requiring two people to string it, with the bowstrings made from ‘catgut’ obtained and made from sheep’s intestines. Arrows were extremely light, and could be shot up to 366 metres, with the armor of the time being no match. It wasn’t long before the bow and arrow became a ‘weapon of choice’ around the globe, with cases of

crossbows and longbows in Asia and Europe dating back to 2000 BC. The bow and arrow proved a capable weapon, with the heavy longbows and arrows able to pierce armor with deadly ease. Archers soon became the pride of most armies, with many battles won on the back of the accuracy and efficiency of one side’s archery company. In several battles of the day, including the more historically significant Battle of Hastings in 1066, and Battle of Agincourt in 1415, it was the archers who were responsible for securing

victory for their side. This is especially the case in The Battle of Hastings, where King Harold of England was beaten by William of Normandy. It’s believed that Harold lined his troops along a

ridge, forming a ‘shield wall’ while waiting for William. William’s army was disadvantaged due its archers being forced to shoot up-hill. At some point in the battle, with his archers proving ineffective, William changed tactics, ordering his archers to aim high and lob their arrows onto Harold’s troops, rather than trying to fire directly into the body of the opposing army. This decimated Harold’s troops, allowing foot soldiers to break through the shield wall and achieve victory. • Continued Page 35.

Adam has big basketball goals in mind By VINNIE RODI

NEWLY appointed Mildura Basketball Association general manger Adam Tarr is a man with a vision. Only eight-weeks into the job and the 36-year-old is already making plans to further develop a sport that has not only risen in popularity locally, but across the country. “I read somewhere that basketball is the most played sport in Australia,” he said. “That’s a telling statistic considering the popularity of sports like AFL, and even soccer. “I know in our league there has been an influx of junior players, and one of my main goals is to further develop our junior ranks and training programs, so that one day these young players can join our senior teams. “One of the great things about the MBA is that players have a representative side to aspire to play in, and there’s nothing locals love better than cheering on one of their own.”

An ideas man And that’s not all the new boss has in mind, with ideas to further expand and develop Mildura basketball’s home-base – the WHK Hothouse – and further promote the sport. “The introduction of our ‘Aussie Hoops’ program (which sees children between 5 and 12 learn the basics of the sport) has proven a big hit, and has been instrumental in attracting a new generation of players to the sport,” he said. “In addition to similar programs I’d also like to see a couple of courts added to our facilities, so that we have the option of expanding our league if need be, and really cement ourselves as a top basketball facility. “Obviously these ideas need to go through the right channels, and they can take time, but ideally I’d love to see our sport continue to grow, and really take a place next to the local AFL and netball leagues, which have proven successful.” If Adam can achieve these goals, it would be the highlight of a basketball career that started in

Adam is the first to admit he “wasn’t much of a player” back

He said when Peter opted to retire from his position as head of the Echuca Association, it had been his name tossed around as a possible replacement. “It’s a role that while difficult at times I’ve fallen in love with, and when the opportunity to come to Mildura and perform a similar role came up, I decided to jump on it,” he said. Adam said the move to Mildura had been made easier by the presence of wife Rebecca, and two sons Patrick, 7, and Zachari, 5, with the young family quickly set-

“The guys are undefeated this year in Division Three, and are a very good chance to take out the title this year,” he said. “And our women’s team is also a very good chance to play finals. “This is certainly one of the best years our association has had in a long time, and it’s fantastic to see locals embrace that success, and really get behind the Mildura Heat.” Adam said he was also lucky to take over the helm in a year where history will be made, with local champion Shannon Erskine

scheduled to play game 400 this weekend against Melton. “It’s very exciting not just for Shannon, but for all local basketball lovers,” he said. “It’s an achievement that I personally believe people will never get to see again. “What Shannon has been able to achieve is incredible, and as an association we’ll be doing our best to make the night one to remember.

Surprises in store “We have a couple of surprises in store, and with the game also coming against Melton, who are currently sitting second behind the Heat, it’s also set to be a blockbuster game. “It would be great to see all the people who have supported the Mildura Mavericks/Heat across Shannon’s career pack out the stadium on Saturday night, and cheer on one of our local heros.” Adam said while his goals as head of the MBA are high, he was content to start slow. “There are going to be challenges along the way,” he said. “And I’m still very much learning the ropes here in Mildura, but I’m confident our Association can continue to improve.”

Cricket stars SPORT meet the Duststorm Mildura Weekly

Friday, July 9, 2010

IT was a battle for the ages - two of Victoria’s top cricketers in Mark Cleary and Rob Quiney, against the might of the Mildura Christie Centre’s All-Abilities cricket side the Mallee Duststorm. Bowling was tight, and the shots textbook, with the result a great time had by all. In Mildura as part of Cricket Victoria’s ‘Diamonds in the Bush’ program, former Mildura Settlers cricketer Cleary, and Bushrangers opener Quiney, have spent the past week working alongside a group of talented local cricketers, with the aim to help improve skills, while discussing pathways to the “big-time.” Taking time out to host a clinic with the Duststorm, held at Sunraysia’s ICA, the Bushranger’s latest recruit said the afternoon had proven “a lot of fun.” “It’s always great to get out and have fun with locals,” Mark said.

“The side’s skills are really good, and we’ve seen some big hits and great catches. “Both Rob and I have had a lot of fun, and the guys have been great.” Mallee Duststorm co-coach, Dave Duffield, said the team had been looking forward to the clinic for some time, with the opportunity to mix with the State’s best an exciting prospect. “The Christie Centre is actually in its holiday period at the moment,” he said. “So to have a group of 14 turn up is an indication of how excited everyone is.” Dave said the program had continued to grow in the past year, with plans for the Duststorm to host its own cricket carnival this October. “It’s something we’re working towards,” he said. “Personally it’s been great seeing the skills of our players improve every week, and they’re continuing to enjoy the program.”

• HOWZAT! Victorian Bushrangers Mark Cleary and Rob Quiney with Mallee Duststorm cricketers Daniel Wilson, Mandy O’Neill and Jesse Grayling.
