CARDS ON THE TABLE SOUTH Australia’s major political parties have put their cards on the table and indicated Chaffey’s importance at the up coming state election with both the State Government and Opposition offering the Riverland recovery packages worth $20 million over four years. Liberal leader Isobel Redmond visited the region on Monday to announce the State

REPORT BY

BRAD PERRY Opposition’s $10 million Riverland Recovery Fund but was outdone by a an announcement that the State Government will invest in a $20 million Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund. In a tit for tat response, Ms Redmond immediately decided to match the State Government’s funding, likening the scenario to “a game of poker�. “I think it is another case of follow the leader,� she said. “Obviously we will match (the funds) seeing as they have found this miraculous amount of money that last week apparently wasn’t anywhere. ■Continued Pages 4 & 5

ROLL UP, roll up, the political circus is in town. If by Monday you didn’t know there was an election on its way, you sure do now. The State Government and the Opposition this week both announced $20 million recovery packages for the Riverland, with each proclaiming it was their idea first. The cynics amongst us will ask why it has taken so long for a recovery package to have been announced by the State Government, when we’ve been doing it tough for several years now. Others will be delighted by the announcements and what they can potentially offer our region. Both parties need to do a bit of work in regards to their packages to further outline how they will benefit the region. But, it is certain that these announcements will play on the mind of Chaffey residents on March 20 and may even have already made up the minds of some as to how they will direct their votes. You have just over a month to sift through the announcements and make up your mind.

Hydro patients left high and dry By LES PEARSON IT’S a case of the patients becoming impatient at the Riverland Regional Hospital, with the facility’s hydrotherapy pool still closed off and pending repairs after well over 12 months. Patients requiring hydrotherapy treatment as part of their rehabilitation have had to find other means of doing so elsewhere in the region, something that has frustrated Loxton man Geoff Haddon. Mr Haddon had both hips replaced last year and was consulting physiotherapists in Berri but had to go elsewhere to carry out hydrotherapy treatment recommended by them. There are other private physiotherapists in the region with hydrotherapy pools but the cost

is a major deterrent for most senior patients. “The physios at the hospital are excellent,� Mr Haddon said. “But for people on the pension, Community Health is their only real option and so many of them need that therapy.�

ommended for the treatment but also for the physiotherapists, to ensure their patients have access to the necessary rehabilitation facilities. In a statement issued to the Riverland Weekly by Country Health SA, a spokesperson ex-

Country Health SA will continue to investigate other options for fixing the pool. Mr Haddon did manage to find other pools to carry out his treatment and found it extremely beneficial. “It’s definitely a better rehabilitation treatment,� he said. “I went as often as I could.� He believes the pool is important not only for patients rec-

pressed sympathy for patients unable to access the pool at Berri. “Country Health SA is disappointed that the hydrotherapy pool has been unavailable for patient use,� the statement said. “Unfortunately, to date we have been unable to engage an appropriately qualified fibre glass

technician to undertake the necessary specialist leakage and pipe repair work. “Country Health SA will continue to investigate alternative options for fixing the pool.� The organisation also denied waiting on Berri Barmera Council’s plans for a recreation centre to be built in Berri before repairing the hydrotherapy pool. “Country Health SA advises that any local council plans to build a recreation centre have no bearing on works to repair the hydrotherapy pool at Berri,� the statement read. “Unlike general purpose swimming pools, hydrotherapy pools are special purpose pools used for rehabilitation and physical therapy and which require specialised maintenance.�

40 gigs handed back to Murray irrigators By BRAD PERRY A 40 gigalitre miscalculation of South Australia’s water over a seven year period has seen irrigator allocations rise to 55 per cent but irrigator experts are calling the announcement too little, too late. South Australian Murray Irrigators chairperson Caren Martin said while a seven per cent increase is welcomed, it was needed years ago. “Seven per cent now is great but seven per cent two years ago would have been better,� she said. “It has taken them (the State Government) seven years to work it out. “This highlights the fact that the Murray Darling Basin Agreement and the special accounting provisions are unresponsive and inadequate. “To hide behind policy when the going gets tough is passing the buck.� Ms Martin said locating 40 gigalitres of miscalculated water now, which went to New South Wales and Victoria, is “devastating� for growers who exited the industry and were put under enormous financial stress in the past seven years. “The year that we finished on 18 per cent, that was a do or die year,� she said. “Having it (the 40 gigalitres) now makes your blood boil.� When asked whether Ms Martin thinks irrigators should be entitled to compensation over the error, she said there is certainly some incompetency

involved. “It might cross peoples’ minds,� she said. As for future irrigator allocation rises, Ms Martin said she was not expecting too much from the state’s water experts. “I anticipate no allocation rise because it feels like the (state water) managers think 55 per cent is good enough coming from really low (allocations),� she said. “We seem to get environmental flows if we beg and allocation increases due to mathematical errors. “Our government and water managers need to do more to secure water allocations.� River Murray Minister Karlene Maywald said 40 gigalitres wouldn’t have made a big difference for irrigators over the seven years. “Divide 40 gigalitres over seven years, it’s an extremely small amount,� she said. Monday’s allocation announcement has also created a lot of political interest, with the State Opposition accusing the Minister of holding the water back for her own political gain. “There is absolutely no gain for me, politically or otherwise, to hold back water,� she said. “(Those claims are) all about the election.� Minister Maywald said the allocation rise is positive for Riverland irrigators, which at this time last year had 18 per cent. “It’s really good news (but) 55

Testimonial per cent is still well below the 100 per cent we’d like to have,� she said. According to Minister Maywald, the State Government worked hard to secure the 40 gigalitres (20 gigalitres each from NSW and VIC) after suspecting South Australia had been short changed between 2002 and 2009 under the Murray Darling Basin Agreement. Family First MLC Robert Brokenshire is not convinced the allocation rise was not a political stunt. “I’m incredibly sceptical of the timing of this magically appearing water,� he said.

THE BATTLE FOR CHAFFEY 2010

Chaffey has 20/20 vision â– From Page 1

Major political parties unveil $20 million rescue plans

“They are miraculously able to come up with money, I strongly suspect they have got a slush fund to keep putting out spot fires with.� Liberal candidate for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the situation is a win for the region and urged the State Government to continue raising the stakes. “For the current government to come out and up the ante to $20 million, I think it is only of a benefit to the region and to be quite honest, if it does generate a bidding war, the Chaffey or Riverland will be the beneficiary and at the moment I say bring it on,� he

said. “My challenge to the current government is; are they prepared to up the ante?� While making the $20 million announcement in Adelaide, Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald played down suggestions of a bidding war, stating funding plans had already been in place through the Riverland Futures Taskforce and the $20 million is now in the budget. “The Liberal Party is bidding against themselves,� she said. “Good try is all I can say to the Libs.

working together through the taskforce, have achieved an enormous boost.� With the State Government focusing its $20 million Futures Fund on investing in projects that improve infrastructure, support industry attraction and help grow existing business, the opposition promised on ground support to help businesses, irrigators and families rebuild through the current drought. Both the Liberal and Labor parties outlined deficiencies in each other’s plans. “We specifically didn’t want to

do it through the Riverland Futures Fund because this government, as I understand it, set up a task force and had meeting after meeting with the community but they haven’t actually put any money out into the electorate,� Ms Redmond said. “One party has got a plan, the other doesn’t, they are just throwing numbers out there,� Mrs Maywald said in response. Family First MLC Robert Brokenshire insisted more money could be directed towards the region by both parties. “Let’s not forget, $5 million per annum is a 0.033 per cent drop in the bucket of a $15,000 million state budget,� he said.

Redmond lays down the gauntlet By BRAD PERRY IT’S fight night in the political boxing ring that is the Riverland and the gloves are off. With the election 30 days away, both the Labor and Liberal parties have begun to question each other’s credentials for the seat of Chaffey. Liberal leader Isobel Redmond, on her fourth visit to the region since taking over the opposition’s hot seat, said the State Government has neglected Australia’s biggest wine producing region. “I don’t know how often the Premier has been up here during the last term, I suspect not very often and I think there is a failure to recognise what an important part of our economy the Riverland represents,� she said. State Regional Development Minister Paul Caica targeted Ms Redmond during the launch of the government’s package, stating she is “far from ready for the serious responsibility of government�. He added that the opposition’s $20 million commitment to the Riverland is a “half-cocked scheme�. “Isobel Redmond is nowhere near ready to provide the people of the Riverland with this kind of leadership that the Riverland needs to

■CAMPAIGN: Liberal leader Isobel Redmond talking to Jim and Liz Manifold, of Renmark, during her fourth visit to the region since taking leadership. Photo: JANE WILSON build a sustainable future,� he said. Ms Redmond was quick to respond. “I’d like to know how many visits Paul Caica has made to the Riverland and on what he bases his assertions?� she said. “That seems to be to me totally incomprehensible, that on the one hand, they want to say ‘it can’t be done and I can’t be trusted to do it and oh, by the way, we will do twice as much’. “My intention is to get money out on to the ground as quickly as possible because their futures fund, the taskforce, has

achieved nothing. “All they have done is talk and no action and I want to see money out there actually helping the community, not just paying more bureaucrats to spin around in a circle and achieve nothing.� Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald said the opposition is throwing around money and making “outlandish� claims. “The Liberal opposition needs to think about that what they announce has substance,� she said. “They need to get with the program.�

What do you think about State Government and Opposition plans to invest $20 million into the region?

Comparing the two packages By BRAD PERRY WHILE both political parties have promised a $20 million investment in the Riverland, it will be up to voters to decide which package will be more beneficial. The State Government’s Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund spanning over four years will be operated through the Riverland Futures Taskforce, which was established over 12 months ago. The Labor Government has already targeted a number of projects through the taskforce to spend the $20 million, including a focus on areas of tourism and businesses. The development of a centre of excellence within the Loxton Research Centre, developing new business models and creating greater efficiency in the value chain, food and tourism initiatives, commercial use of water from the Waikerie Salt Interception Scheme, expanding the Flinders University Rural Clinic School site and creating stage one of the Great Riverland Walks are all included on the taskforce list.

Peake meeting ABC Country Hour livestock reporter Max Peake will be the guest speaker at a function being hosted by Independent Chaffey candidate David Peake in Loxton tonight. An informal Q&A session will be a feature of the night, with David Peake discussing his candidacy for the electorate. “It will be great to have a chat to the farmers and irrigators about their concern,� Mr Peake said. “As a struggling irrigator myself, I can relate to these people, and as a candidate, want to help them as much as I can.� The dinner will be held at the Loxton Sports Club and will start at 6pm.

Town hall gatherings THE incumbent Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald will be holding a series of Town Hall meetings across the region in the lead up to the election.

“It’s about what the community has done and put together and what they are going to spend it on,� Mrs Maywald said. Mrs Maywald said a conceptual plan has been drawn up and the State Government and taskforce will work through the scope of projects in coming months. The Liberal Party has

My aim is to get money out on the ground as quickly as possible.

targeted local families, businesses and irrigators to spend its $20 million Riverland Recovery Fund, starting within 100 days of being elected, but the State Government is accusing the Liberals of taking its idea. “The problem for the Redmond Liberals is that people in the Riverland can see through their attempt to hijack what has been a carefully thought through Mrs Maywald described the meetings as “old fashioned Town Hall� gatherings at which all issues will be discussed. “Being the Member for Chaffey involves a lot more than dealing with the drought and the legacy of decades of bad management of the Murray Darling Basin,� Mrs Maywald said. “Health, education, feeling safe in our community, improving support for pensioners, people with disabilities and those who care for the vulnerable in our community are just as important.� As part of the meetings, Mrs Maywald has invited all Chaffey candidates to join her on the panel. The first gathering will be at the Waikerie Institute next Wednesday from 7pm.

Maywald claims Bonney bandwagon A POLITICIAN who criticised the decision to close Lake Bonney has been described as a desperado by

and widely consulted upon plan,� Minister Caica said. The Liberals have targeted the State Government’s Riverland Futures Taskforce as a problem and Ms Redmond said the party will not use the taskforce for its recovery fund. “My aim is to get money out on the ground as quickly as possible and obviously to involve local people to do that because I don’t believe that bureaucrats are the best people necessarily...local people deserve to be more in charge of their own destiny,� she said. Liberal candidate for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the money will be invested in local businesses and invested in opportunities to secure a future for the region. “I met with Isobel and her team extensively over driving this assistance package but again as I say, this initiative is all about supporting the future of the region,� he said. “What the future of this region is about is the people that are prepared to stay (on their blocks) and be all about driving this region into the future.� Member for Chaffey Karlene Maywald. Responding to comments by Independent MLC David Winderlich, who claimed Mrs Maywald had broken electoral promises regarding Barmera’s Lake Bonney, asked what the former Democrat’s agenda is. “It seems there are no shortage of political desperados prepared to jump on the bandwagon, praying on vulnerable communities at election time to grab some cheap headlines,� she said. “Mr Winderlich wants Lake Bonney reconnected but whose water is he going to take to do it?� Mrs Maywald described Mr Winderlich’s claims as “utter nonsense�.

Family picnic THE Family First candidate for Chaffey Jack Papageorgiou will continue his Family Picnic Day program at Monash this Sunday. The picnic, which starts at 5pm, will be held at the Monash playground.

Sign removal could have dire consequences By BRAD PERRY THE future of three Riverland motorsport clubs is under threat after the Renmark Paringa Council told Riverland Speedway to remove advertising signs facing the Sturt Highway. The advertising signage, on the outside of the speedway course about 80 metres back from the Sturt Highway, does not comply with current zoning legislation and council has requested the 15 signs be relocated to the spectator area. Around $3000 goes to the Riverland Speedway, Renmark Kart Club and Riverland Junior Motorcycle Club for maintaining the signs. Riverland Speedway president Greg Haynes said shifting or removing the signs would have a negative effect on the advertising abilities of the clubs and the businesses may pull any future funding. Mr Haynes said the committee is outraged at the council’s request, as the signage has been erected on the highway fencing for almost half a century without prob-

lems. “I’m very disappointed,� he said. “The businesses are really devastated because they rely on the signs for advertising. “This financial gain ($3000) helps all clubs in their sustainability and survival in the future, shifting or removing these signs will only have a negative effect. “They (the clubs) won’t survive.� The not-for-profit speedway venue allows motor enthusiasts and spectators to enjoy the sport and generates spin-offs for the region. However, Mr Haynes said the committee wants to be exempt from the zoning legislation and is willing to fight to keep the advertising signs in their present locations. Letters from the speedway, local businesses and a petition will be sent to council in a bid for the speedway to be exempted. Moving the signage could see up to 150 people and volunteers affected and Mr Haynes said it would be a huge blow for the region if council passes the legislation. “In this current econom-

ic climate we really have to support local business,� he said. “It’s a chain reaction... it’s a big impact and council aren’t seeing it.� Riverland Junior Motorcycle Club president Michael Mawdsley said a number of the club’s members are juniors. “It’s keeping kids’ hooning, off the street,� he said. “These people want to advertise and it helps us as we have got sponsorship from them. “If they go, we have got to find all of that sponsorship money we are missing out on.� Council should be promoting the facilities not harming them, according to Renmark Kart Club track manager Bob Gelston. “Council should be proud of what (we) have done and achieved, not hinder us,� he said. “(If the signs have to be taken down) it will make life a hell of a lot harder for us.� The Renmark Paringa Council was unable to comment as the issue is to be discussed at next week’s council meeting.

All three councils have renewed their support for the program, bringing young paramedic students (below) to the region. By LES PEARSON THE three Riverland councils have renewed their support for the Flinders University Riverland Rural Paramedic Program (RRPP), each pledging $2000 towards the training initiative. Program administrator Cheryl Ingerson wrote a letter to each of the councils last month requesting further support after they had previously donated to the program in the 2008/2009 financial year. “It is so important that councils support initiatives to provide an improved level of health care service provision in their communities, to be part of the solutions for their communities,� Ms Ingerson said. “It is also equally as important that valid pathways to employment and for re-skilling exist within rural communities and for local governments to both acknowledge and support this is vital.� The RRPP is a joint initiative of Flinders University and the South Australian Ambulance Service (SAAS) and operates from the Flinders University Rural Clinical School (FURCS) in Renmark.

Forum focuses on assisting industry to source skilled workers THE state’s peak automotive business group, the Motor Trade Association will host a special forum on March 10, at MTA House in Wayville, to assist members to obtain suitably skilled local applicants for the range of automotive trade work available. Automotive trades including mechanical, auto electrical, panel beating and spray

painting are included on the Federal Government’s Migration Occupation in Demand List (MODL) and as such are listed as being in short supply. “MTA firmly supports any appropriate initiatives which help members secure suitably qualified tradespeople for the automotive industry,� MTA executive director John Chapman said.

“Wherever possible we try to assist members by providing our highly sought after apprentices to fill any vacancies. “But right now there is a shortage of suitably qualified people and a shortage of high quality Australian resident applicants. Our members cannot fill all the roles available.� The free forum will outline

all members need to know - the feasible options for business, point out what help is available and how to obtain it. Guest speakers at the forum will be: • Ms Constanze VoelkelHutchinson, SA outreach officer business services in the Department of Immigration and Citizenship SA office;

• Ms Robyn Hansen, manager employer sponsored programs, Immigration SA, Department of Trade and Economic Development; • Mr John Zulian, MTA executive committee member and managing director, Keswick Crash. Bookings by email book@mta-sa.asn.au by February

Lewis appointed BRENTON Lewis has been appointed head of the region’s new development board. Mr Lewis will head up the new Regional Development Australia Murraylands and Riv-

erland Incorporated organisation, which has been formed following the amalgamation of the local development boards. The organisation will be represented by offices in Berri and Murray Bridge. Mr Lewis commenced his role on February 1.

Investigation into latest fish kill at Lake Bonney RIVER Murray Minister Karlene Maywald has announced an investigation into the latest fish kill at Lake Bonney. Minister Maywald said the South Australian Murray Darling Basin Natural Resource Management Board has advised that about 2000 bony herrings have been washed up on the northern and north eastern foreshore of the lake. Analysis of the water in Lake Bonney conducted on Friday indicat-

ed there has been no major change from recent salinity readings. There were also heavy storms in the Barmera area at the weekend. “This is not the first time there has been a fish kill in Lake Bonney but it is only the third event in the past two and a half years,” Minister Maywald said. “Locals who have lived in the region for many years have said these events have happened periodically for decades.

“We are continuing to work closely with the Lake Bonney Community Management Group, chaired by community member Mike Fuller, which is developing a long-term plan for the lake. “Once the committee’s work has been completed, this plan will be available to the public for community consultation. “It would be premature to remove the regulator before this work is done.”

■ HAPPY: 20 year old cystic fibrosis sufferer Jess Sykes with her favourite shetland pony Toby.

Jess battles illness with a smile

Voting is about choosing someone to represent you in Parliament, someone who shares your views and opinions and giving them your vote.

It is about voting for others, but in a way, it’s like you’re trying to elect yourself. We’re not asking you to stand for Parliament. Just reminding you of your right to stand for something by casting your vote.

ON the outside, Renmark’s Jess Sykes looks like an everyday 20 year old, going about her dayto-day business just as anyone else her age does. On the inside, it’s a very different story. Jess is one of a small number of Riverlanders suffering from the chronic illness cystic fibrosis (CF), a hereditary disease, which affects the entire body, causing progressive disability, most commonly in the pancreas and lungs. Other symptoms, including sinus infections, poor growth and infertility result from the effects of CF on other parts of the body. Jess was diagnosed as a baby and at the time, was given a life expectancy of 12 years. Thankfully, medical advances have enabled her to live well beyond that tender age but sadly, there is still no known cure. With no pancreas function, she takes a daily concoction of about 20 different supplements and medications.

REPORT BY

LES PEARSON She also suffers from asthma but somehow, Jess considers herself lucky. “I don’t have diabetes, which a lot of people with CF do,” she said. CF is caused by a mutation in a gene called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The CFTR gene helps create sweat, digestive juices and mucus. Although most people without CF have two working copies of the CFTR gene, only one is needed to prevent cystic fibrosis. It is because of the gene mutation that Jess doesn’t consider CF an illness or disease, but in a self-deprecating way thinks of herself as more of a ‘subspecies’, being a slight genetic alteration of a normal human. Jess recently admitted herself to hospital for further treatment and while she knows it will make

■ DRESSY: Jess and boyfriend David Foweraker at the Ronald McDonald Ball last year. her better temporarily, she hates being there. “Anyone who likes hospitals has something very wrong with them,” she joked. Regular exercise is part of her routine, to maintain her lung capacity and reduce the chance of chest infections. While her health fluctuates from time to time, she has a good job, enjoys spending time with her horses and boyfriend David Foweraker and leads a relatively normal life despite her condition. “I haven’t really got a choice, I’ve got to accept it and move on,” Jess said.

The prospect of a limited life span has slipped back into the deep depths of her mind now. “You think about it a bit but you don’t,” Jess explained. “I mean, I could get hit by a bus tomorrow, that’s the way I look at it.” With the support of David and her parents, Jess said she is loving life at the moment and was appreciative of their efforts and patience in dealing with her CF. Jess said a real highlight from last year was attending the Ronald McDonald House Ball in Adelaide. “It was so big, there were hundreds of people there,” she said. “It was good, there was such an amazing atmosphere.” With plans for the future including buying a house, settling down and looking after her favourite horses, Jess’ focus is firmly set on a life in the Riverland. “I’m pretty sure I want to stick around here,” she said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Jay confirms priority WELL, there you have it. It’s official. Jay Weatherill confirms that the Labor Government’s number 1 priority is the Lower Lakes – not the Riverland. 35,000 people above Lock 1 are dependant on the Murray. Comparatively, there are only a ‘hat full’ of people who are dairy farmers or irrigators below Lock 1. This is proof positive that the Government is more concerned with the Adelaide latte set than it is about families whose very existence depends on the river. Which is Karlene’s priority? Still no word from our political representatives, aspirants, editorial writers and local government leaders.

problem on that front but also faces an uphill battle to retain the seat of Chaffey. My candidacy will probably help determine that outcome. The Member for Chaffey said recently she represented “the people of the Riverland first and foremost�. For a start, that statement could be questioned by Riverlanders as it is. Other constituents of Chaffey also deserve representation by their member. Chaffey, don’t take any risks this election. Like never before you need a member that will focus on all communities first and foremost and in particular, the social impact of the drought, one on one. Your well being is my priority, not my political ambition.

Sue Beech, Berri.

David Peake, Independent Candidate for Chaffey.

Is it a better deal? THIS letter is directed to those constituents who believe that their member, as a Labor Government Minister, will obtain a better deal for Chaffey. Well, we have had to wait for an election to get the rescue package that was so desperately needed to be delivered well before now. The Rann Labor Government’s election promise should be seen for what it is, too little, too late. In Chaffey a recent poll indicated that the state election will be a tight contest. The Member for Chaffey and Minister in the Labor Government not only has a

Liberals in same river boat IN 1914 my grandfather Arthur Walter Crowhurst, together with his wife, seven children and two horses and a cart, headed for Morgan to obtain work at the railways. He discovered at Morgan that there was no water in the River Murray and that several steamers were standing on their paddlewheels and the railway had closed, being unable to load steamers. Grandpa was informed that a new irrigation area was being started at Waikerie.

Have your say about the issues that affect you.

On arrival at the river below the ferry at Waikerie he found the river was only 30 foot wide and 15 inches at the deepest point. The family camped at the base of Waikerie Oval for several weeks. On September 1, 1914, my grandfather was allocated Lot 132 Ramco Road, Waikerie, to set up a home and begin an orchard. He was employed by the Department of Lands. Whilst working for the Department of Lands, he helped erect a sandbank four bags high across the river where the ferry now operates. This task took more than 20 days to obtain water to start the pumps. In 1919 there was enough water in the river to get the pumps operating properly. In 1922 the first lock was completed and ready for operation at Blanchetown. In 1950 an aged fisherman told me you could catch shellfish on the high tide up to where Lock One now stands. To me, this proves the bottom lakes often have saline water. The present situation is, as I see it, a repeat of the history that occurred in the early 1900s. The Liberal candidate Tim Whetstone has complained that (Premier) Mike Rann and (Water) Minister Karlene Maywald were negotiating with the Federal Government, re: water situation, but perhaps he was unaware that the Liberal Senate was preventing the projects from going through. It has always been a

puzzle to me why the growers of the Riverland are complaining about the Labor Government not acting upon the problems of the water, when the Liberal Senate was voted in by the same growers. AG Crowhurst, Waikerie.

Stand up and demand ANDREW Kassebaum, Riverland Weekly, February 11, is right. The irrigation industry must stand up and demand that their property rights are recognised and respected. The govenrment conceded in parliament that stamp duty is only legally payable on property. Two years ago the Minister for Water Security (Karlene Maywald) removed stamp duty from water licences, sending a clear message that she no longer recognises water rights as property. The Minister then introduced her policy of “Unbundling water rights� - in other words the Minister is setting up a legal framework to separate water rights from land and other entities and interests, enabling her and her government to legally acquire water rights without the legal obligation to pay compensation. Presently the Labor Government is arguing in the High Court of Australia that they are not legally obliged to pay irrigators compensation for their loss of property. Her next priority was to have two years’ water supply along with transference flows held in storage for the general public and whatever was left would be allocated at her discretion between ‘environmental projects’ and ‘irrigators’. Our Water Security Minis-

ter is in a position to formulate policies that recognise and respect water rights with compensation to allow the irrigation industry to rationalise and restructure - she chose not to. Our local member could have used the media to put pressure on the Labor Government to pay compensation - she chose not to. We can not allow half a billion dollars worth of wealth held in the form of water rights to be stripped from the Riverland and Lower Murray economies without compensation, the Riverland will never recover. We all know people in the irrigation industry and we all benefit from them, so we must use the media and the ballot box to send a clear message to this govenrment that they cannot treat Riverland families the same as convicted drug traffickers, seizing their property and freezing their assets. Shane Warrick, Barmera.

Private interests? SURELY this (the National Foods closure) is private enterprise at its best. Of which the Liberal Party fully support. Private enterprise motto – screw the worker to make more profit. Mark Simmons, Swan Reach.

Royalties for regions THE far reaching impact of the SA Nationals’ Royalties for Regions policy is very clear from the “me too� comments of the Liberal candidate for Chaffey (ABC Radio, February 3). Royalties for Regions has, since September 2008, been a significant Nationals

initiative to support communities and industries in rural, regional and remote South Australia. The SA Nationals seek a binding commitment from the next elected State Government to allocate 25 per cent of all mining royalties earned in the state to a fund to direct investment in vital regional infrastructure - over and above normal consolidated revenue fund allocations. Such additional funds will develop and maintain the vibrant and sustainable country communities and industries which underpin the future of our state. The SA Nationals believe in taking action to ensure that rural, regional and remote communities in SA recognise their state supports their efforts and acknowledges the significant contribution they make to the prosperity and future of the state. The Nationals are, and remain, the only party totally focused on supporting and working for country South Australians. We first communicated the Royalties for Regions policy to the communities of rural and regional South Australia in a press release from Wilbur Klein, former president of the SA Nationals, now our candidate for Flinders, more than 18 months ago. The WA Nationals have already had their Royalties for Regions policy enshrined in legislation and have seen millions of dollars flowing to under-resourced regions around that state. The Nationals in SA have pledged to work in the best interests of rural and regional Australia, unlike the overtly ‘citycentric’ main political parties, which cannot deliver on such a promise. Dr Jacky Abbott, President, SA Nationals.

■ COLOUR: Yvette’s colour obsession is still evident.

■ TALENTED: Bugle Hut artist Yvette Schepel-Frahn was captivated by horses at an early age, producing numerous works with equine influence (left). Photos: JANE WILSON

Yvette’s equine influence By LES PEARSON IT is somewhat ironic that the best way to describe Bugle Hut artist Yvette Schepel-Frahn’s personality is “colourful”. Many in the Riverland and beyond have seen her work in galleries, or out in the community, but looking into the mind behind the canvas you can see a masterpiece in itself. Working under the banner of equine artist, Yvette’s tractor shed studio on the family farm is a surprisingly orderly room in comparison to the stereotypical artists’ studio. Mannequin torsos stand guard over her canvas, ablaze with the familiar smudgy colours from her favourite artistic ‘tool’, the humble pastel. But it is the sheer volume of horse images that line the walls of the room that eventually catches the eye. From close up details to moonlit landscapes, the equine influence fast becomes apparent. “I remember when I first saw a horse, it was the most amazing

Riverland

People

thing,” Yvette said. At the age of 12, Yvette convinced her parents into buying her first horse, Roly, but it was a stubborn showjumper named Jasper that stole her heart. He eventually died and was buried on the family farm but in Yvette’s mind, Jasper lives on. “Even after all these years, he keeps popping up in my art,” she said. “I’ve drawn him a heck of a lot and I don’t think I’m done with him yet. “He really had a huge impact on my life.” When it comes to putting the animals on paper, Yvette only has one rule. “Anatomy is one thing I will always be faithful to,” she said. “The shapes, angles, bones and ligaments I’m really faithful to but when it comes to colour, I see things differently.”

■ INSPIRATION: Yvette’s SchepelFrahn’s favourite subject, her beloved horse Jasper, has now passed on but continues to live through her work. Experimenting with shades that only Yvette would use, she emerges with stunning pieces of work that have captured the imagination of many art and horse lovers alike. “I’m quite obsessive about colour,” she said. “I really get off on it, it’s good stuff.” As the colour begins to flow at Yvette’s fingertips, things just seem to blur together and out of it emerges simple elegance. She did, however, confess she is not working alone.

“There is a very loud inner voice, I must admit,” she laughed. “It is capable of stopping time. “There will be days I will look at the clock and go, ‘okay, I have 10 minutes left until I need to pick the kids up’ and I’ll keep working, look at the clock again and 20 minutes have passed,” she said. Her creative urges have turned what was a hobby into a profession and Yvette believes there are more creative minds out there stuck in a purely academic education system that she says does not cater for those

Bushfires and electricity supply At ETSA Utilities we recognise our responsibility to protect the safety of the community and our State’s electricity assets through the fire danger season. This means that in extreme fire danger situations we may have to disconnect power supply. Our intention always is to restore electricity supplies as soon as the danger has passed, but power restoration may not be immediate if there is damage to the network, or we need to inspect lines in remote or difficult locations. The potential for disconnection means people living in bushfire risk areas should consider their needs in terms of back up systems for power, including for water pumping. Please do not approach damaged electrical infrastructure and keep others away, especially where lines are on the ground. Contact emergency services or ETSA Utilities immediately on 13 13 66 to identify the location of the fault.

who “think outside the square”. “I’m dead set my kids aren’t going to turn out like that,” she said. Those who have seen Yvette’s determination at work would not question that statement. So determined to immerse more of the community in art, Yvette has been working on educating more young locals about the ways of expressing themselves through art. “Art has the ability to just take the moment from you and stop whatever you were thinking about merely seconds before,” she said. Yvette’s artistic battle is an ongoing one but with her current zest for life and energy levels, her conviction remains strong. Yvette features in a recently published book Lounge to Boardroom by Ashley Knoote-Parke. The book tells the stories of South Australian business women.

New business co-operative launched to assist small business operators

â– ASSIST: A new business venture has been launched to help remote and regional bussineses.

MR STEPHEN Nuske, representing a new online business co-operative, The Virtual Board, believes the launch of their new service will drastically improve support for regional, remote and isolated small business owners across South Australia. Mr Nuske, a practicing accountant, states the business co-operative is a new service never provided before. It is designed to support small business operators, with professional advice provided by experienced facilitators for each element of business. “Small business operators who can’t attend face to face training in Adelaide, meeting with business mentors or coaches will benefit greatly from this new service,� Mr Nuske said. “The service utilises the internet to empower business owners and managers to avoid common pitfalls of operating a small business. “Members join online by

web cam or an instant messaging system which business owners are embracing at a growing rate – even the baby boomers. “The costs are significantly lower utilising the internet as the way of joining into their Virtual Board meetings. “Think of the cost most professional bodies charge for three hours of assistance. “By comparison, we charge the same cost for members to be part of the Virtual Board for three months.� Research undertaken by members of the co-op indicate little support is offered by government and the private sector for start-up businesses. People can only attend a three hour overview of starting a business which is offered through local business enterprise centres or regional development boards. Little else is available for the next year or so, which is the critical time for a small business to survive. Their online business analysis

initially assesses a member’s business by indicating areas of priorities for survival and shortfalls which are evident. Also, there seems to be a growing need for employers retrenching staff to provide services such as this for employees looking to embark on investing in small business with sufficient business advice and coaching. “The business co-op utilises the understandingbusiness. com.au business website where members join for $55 which includes the initial business analysis,� Mr Nuske said. “A monthly membership fee of $150 provides support for all aspects of running a business. Members can opt in or opt out when they require the service which lowers the overall cost to the business owners.� This business co-op offers a new method of sharing ideas, learning from business peers and gaining innovative ideas to enhance the success for

Your Finance

FEATURE

Safeguard your financial future By AMP financial planner DANNY KEARNEY* IT IS a clichÊ, but it is true: people should expect the unexpected and one of the best ways to prepare is to have some insurance. If there is an unwelcome intrusion into a person’s life, whether it is a burglary or something more devastating like death or a long-term illness, insurance can at least take care of the financial disruption, providing the money to help a family cope. An AMP.NATSEM report, that looked at the high cost of illness, found that even the highest paid households can become the lowest paid as a result of just a mild disability. Many people are simply not prepared for the financial consequences that can follow unexpected events.

If, for example, a normal working couple with two children was suddenly reduced to one income, their household income could fall by between $20,000 to $80,000 in the first

Most people are so focused on building their wealth that they don’t protect it.

year alone. If either parent was to suffer a serious and long-term disability, this loss could be between $500,000 to $1.8 million over 20 years.

Most people are so focused on earning their pay and building their wealth that they don’t take the next step to protect it. In one year, the average family could lose around $40,000 in lost earnings after a disability. However, with insurance, the same family can ride out the bad times without having to worry too much about how they will pay the bills. There are several insurance options available to protect against the loss of income in the case of someone suffering a disability. The most common is income protection. Income protection can pay a monthly amount, kind of like a wage, if a person is injured or ill and cannot work. Income protection payments can help maintain the household, meet the mortgage repayments and even pay some of the medical costs while someone recuperates before they go back to work. Most people do have life insurance via their superannuation, which is a simple and cost effective way to buy this insurance, but often people still don’t have enough cover. Many superannuation funds provide life insurance cover of less than $100,000. But the AMP.NATSEM Report revealed the average Australian household has debts of around $100,000. If the family’s major breadwinner passes away, tragically, it can be a huge emotional strain. But the financial strain can also cripple a family. The Investment and Financial Services Association estimates that approximately 4000 Australians with dependent children under 21 die each year, many with inadequate insurance cover and often with large debts to pay off. Finding out if you have enough life insurance cover is relatively simple and is as easy as calling us at Kearney Financial Services. We can work out your insurance needs based on your own objectives, financial situation and needs. *Danny Kearney is an Authorised Representative of AMP Financial Planning Pty Ltd, ABN 89 051 208 327, AFS Licence No. 232706.

I understand those on the tour changed their names on the night, taking the monikers of their favourite professional player. It’s safe to assume there was some friendly banter involved!

Donโ t fix yet, says broker Expectations of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) lifting the official cash rate does not mean it is time to fix home loan rates, according to leading mortgage broker Loan Market Group. Riverland Loan Market mortgage broker Robert Gruzlewski said there was still a big gap between variable and fixed interest rates, resulting in fixed rates offering little protection for mortgage holders. โ While variable rates are influenced by the RBA, fixed rates are quite different and their pricing is driven by those who invest in the fixed rate wholesale markets,โ Mr Gruzlewski said. โ In the last two years the average variable rate has increased more than two per cent over the RBA cash rate. โ However, the average fixed rates are two per cent higher than variable

rates, so they offer very little protection against rate increases. โ The variable rate would need to increase by two per cent over the next 18 months to break even on a three year fixed rate.โ Mr Gruzlewski said fixed rates also offered little flexibility. โ They have high penalty costs for paying extra or paying them out, which could occur if you sell your house, switch to variable or refinance,โ he said. โ In contrast, variable rates have very flexible repayment options, redraw facilities, offset accounts and few fees imposed to switch to fixed.โ Mr Gruzlewski said as the global economy improves and more cash becomes available in the international money markets, the major banks will return some of their margin and dilute the impact of future RBA rate increases.

โ The Government has also made more money available to smaller lenders to allow them to be competitive with the major banks, adding further pressure to pass on the reduced cost of borrowing,โ he said. โ The increased funds available to lenders will also narrow the gap between fixed and variable rates, providing a better opportunity to fix. โ We have already seen the Adelaide Bank reduce its three-year fixed rate to 6.99per sent. โ More competition between the banks along with greater confidence in the wholesale investor market will see some very attractive fixed rates coming through this year. โ But only consider switching to a fixed rate when the gap between fixed and variable rates narrows. Before making your decision, itโ s always best to consult a mortgage broker.โ

WHAT about dogs? While small lap dogs can cope with living totally inside, most people find dogs difficult to manage without a garden. However, if you have a suitable place for a dog to use as a toilet and can exercise it one, two or three times daily by taking it for a walk, a dog like a chihuahua, fox terrier or a poodle may be a consideration. Many forward thinking nursing homes have a resident pooch that is always popular.

WHAT about mice and rats? Many people would think that these are not appropriate pets for elderly people but I know of a lady who has a pet rat and adores it. Personally, I think that rats make much more entertaining pets than mice. They are cuddlier and I feel they have more character. Rats are easy to keep and are not expensive to buy. Their

Birds BIRDS are popular with the elderly. Cockatiels, love birds, budgies and canaries and any of the other small parrots will suit the bill. Cockatiels and budgies can be good conversationalists too, and, in time, you could teach your feathered friend to come out of its cage and to fly around your unit.

ELDERLY folk have the time for pets and have lots of love to give but many are in units, retirement villages or hospice accommodation and pets are often not encouraged - sadly. A pet, though, is so important for such people. Are there any answers? You bet.

AN aquarium of fish is another consideration. The graceful and fluid movements of a school of marine or tropical fish are very pacifying. Once it is established and the water environment has stabilised, an aquarium is easy to maintain and not that expensive. Don’t skimp on the quality of your filter and other equipment though. There is an element of creativity with an aquarium. The placement of the plants and

camera, panorama glass roof and full iPod integration, the new ix35 brings ‘designer’ style and luxury to the compact SUV segment. Starting with a clean slate, Hyundai’s development team moved away from the two-box off-roader look in favour of a sleeker, more refined profile, while simultaneously achieving a roomier cabin, extra storage capacity and excellent fuel economy. ‘Fluidic Sculpture’ symbolises the flow of water.

Clearly contoured surfaces are delineated by defined, naturally graduating lines. A subtle yet powerful double ‘Z’ form emerges from the body. The concave sills have a wedge-shaped profile extending rearward, wrapping around into the rear bumper. Developed as an urban cruiser, the ix35 is compact and agile for life in the city, yet tough and versatile for out-of-town travel.

MOTORING

Cars in the news

Green solution in new Camry Hybrid THE green motoring revolution finally took root in Australia when Toyota’s Hybrid Camry hit the road, the Herald Sun reports. It’s not a cheap car, priced from $36,990, but it proves that local car makers can go green without sacrificing their core business. And it has beaten the highly

touted, plug-in electric city cars from Smart, Mitsubishi and Subaru into showrooms. The petrol-electric Camry is basically a Prius, wrapped up in familiar family bodywork. The running system is the same, apart from a larger petrol engine, and it makes similar promises on efficiency and emissions.

Car display for games THE Heritage Motoring Club of India will be displaying about 100 vintage and classic cars, motorcycles and scooters at the XIX Commonwealth Games 2010 Delhi. India’s Wheels Unplugged web-

Nine hits top gear in ratings race

Canberra’s traffic chaos

■ICONIC: Enigmatic driver known as ‘The Stig’ in hit motoring show Top Gear, new to Channel Nine. THE Nine Network will trot out one of its big guns for the year this week – the BBC motoring show Top Gear – and all eyes will be on the ratings, the Sydney Morning Herald reports. The deal, brokered behind closed doors last year, shifted ownership of the show, and its local spin-off, from SBS, where it launched in 2005 and built a loyal audience of close to 1 mil-

lion viewers weekly, to Nine, which is fighting a ratings war on two fronts and is hungry for flagship programming to strengthen its schedule. Consumer sentiment is difficult to measure. The audience was unfazed by Kath & Kim’s shift from the ABC to Seven, where it delivered series-record ratings. Seven’s poaching of Thank

site reports ‘The Commonwealth Classic Exposition’ will be during the entire duration of the Commonwealth Games from October 3 to 14. The location of its display is a demarcated area at Nehru Park, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi. The best of 100 cars and two wheelers, belonging to members of the HMCI in India, will be on display as part of the event.

God You’re Here from Ten was met less enthusiastically and the show lost viewers, in part owing to the demographic differences between the networks. The BBC’s press release said it was “thrilled� with the Nine/ Top Gear deal. The chief executive of Nine, David Gyngell, described the show as “quite simply an outstanding television product�.

BUREAUCRATIC bungling and poor planning is to blame for Canberra’s current traffic chaos, according to a director of Australia’s peak motoring body, reports the Canberra Times. The ACT is a virtual maze of detours and hazard signs as 14 major roadworks across the territory combine to affect almost every major north-south and east-west arterial passage, while areas free of roadwork struggle to cope with the overflow. According to NRMA director Alan Evans, territory drivers have been slugged with a massive motoring headache due to three separate government departments and agencies, both federal and local, carrying out their own works without the requisite planning for traffic management. He said the number of roadwork projects under way across the ACT was a burden taxpayers should not expect nor

accept. ‘’The current situation almost smacks of someone having malicious intent to raise the blood temperature of drivers,’’ he said.

Launch of CARnival THE Confederation of Australian Motor Sports (CAMS), in association with Tourism Victoria and the shires of Campaspe and Murray, has launched the inaugural CARnival, an annual national event for motoring enthusiasts, according to website Car Advice. To be held in Echuca-Moama on the Murray River, over the New South Wales Labour Day long weekend (October 1-4), CARnival highlights are set to include “hot laps� for local charities around the Echuca CBD, a 2000 vehicle Shannons CARshine central show and swap meet and other motoring-based tests, competitions and events. CAMS CEO, Graham Fountain, said CARnival has been created for all motoring and motorsport enthusiasts and hopes to attract around 20,000 visitors to the first ever staging, which falls on the weekend before the Bathurst 1000.

IGHT from his very first car, which was a 1962 EK Holden sedan, it became obvious Brett Barnes would still be involved with cars today. In the early days, his dad was into 1930s Fords and always liked a “nice set of wheels”, so it was not surprising to find Brett and his mates, during their teenage years, keeping track of the better cars in the Renmark district. He didn’t do a lot with the EK, just a tidy up, respray and a set of chrome wheels, but it’s probably the 1968 HK Monaro that he restored to original he regrets parting with the most. Its previous owner had customised the front, which was an unfortunate trend back then, so Brett completely stripped it and returned it to its original ex-factory condition, even retaining the six cylinder engine. Back in 1997, a completely original 1974 HQ Premier sedan was purchased locally in Renmark, complete with 253 V8 engine and tri-matic auto trans. But it didn’t stay that for long as the engine was changed to a 308 V8 and the

wheels to mags on the very same weekend the car was collected. Brett drove the “Prem” occasionally over the next couple of years, then decided to pull it down and completely rebuild it. After completely stripping the body, he and his dad set about repairing the minor rust and body defects before applying the 2000 Monaro Hot House Green paint right at home in their shed. The entire underside was cleaned up and reconditioned also, before setting to work on the mechanicals. The front suspension and brakes remain HQ Holden, while the diff has been replaced with a trusty 9” Ford on the original HQ coil suspension. This has been narrowed to the correct track, fitted with disc brakes and runs 4.11:1 gears. At the time of the photo, the Prem was running a mildly worked 308 V8 with a turbo 400 auto trans using a 3000 rpm high stall and B&M Pro ratchet shifter. Making noise out the back is a 21/2” twin exhaust system coming from the tuned length extractors. While the engine bay looks relatively stock in appearance, the engine has received a small amount of chrome and detail work to give it a lift. Adding that bit extra to the green paint on the outside are a set of Pro Star Weld wheels, 15” x 5” on the front and 15’ x 81/2” at the back, these complementing the original chrome that has simply been repolished. During the rebuild, the interior was gutted and replaced with HZ Statesman seats and door panels all retrimmed in black vinyl and velour. A CD sound system was also installed at the same time, not that Brett listens to it too much, he prefers to hear the engine ‘tunes’. He chose not to trim the boot and left that for all the things to make the car go. It now contains the battery, a fuel cell and the nitrous oxide cylinder, all relevant to making it go. Although the Prem may not be everyone’s idea of a ‘Hot Street Car’, Brett says it’s his “own personal taste car”. What of performance? “It’s probably adequate at present but it’s going to get better,” he said of the car. “The 308 is out and I’ve got a high performance 350 Chev ready to drop in. “Then I plan to build a full on race engine so I can have a real go at the drags. “I can’t wait ‘til the Riverland Drag Strip is up and running and we can compete in our own region.” Obviously drag racing is his favourite motorsport and he really has no aspirations for other cars as he has plenty in the shed. The HK Holden Premier he has partly restored at present will probably be the next project to finish off.

Gutzenfest is golfers’ delight ONE of the most enjoyable days you could ever have on a golf course would have to be the annual Gutzenfest at Berri. Of course there is plenty of golf (probably a lot more strokes than normal), plenty to eat during and after your round and a lot of attention to keeping up players’ fluid levels. It is for golfers and nongolfers with this year’s event being held on Sunda, February 28. The competition involves teams of five with a

nomination fee of $25 per head but walkers are welcome at $15 and individual nominations are invited. Social golf like this usually produces a number of those embarrassing ‘airies’ – complete misses – and naturally they usually belong to the non-golfer. Not necessarily so though I am told, just ask prominent regular Berri player Andy Bourn, who is apparently capable of driving the ball a mile. It seems Andy entered a team of his mates, all non-

golfers, last year and naturally he would have been keen to lead from the front of the inexperienced group. An ‘airy’ at the 10th did not exactly help much. One explanation is that Andy had been working as lead singer the night before for a band at the annual Make a Wish Overland Corner Hotel Show and may have been a bit ‘fatigued’. Nominations to the Berri Golf Club can be made by calling 8582 3666 or 0431 352 168.

Murray Districts Barrier side impresses at SACA country carnival in Adelaide MURRAY Districts Barrier played off for fifth place in the eight zone annual SACA Country Carnival in Adelaide last week but with an ounce of luck, could have been competing for higher honours. From where I sit, our zone’s performance in the new one week format of the age old tournament was amongst the most competitive for many years. And no doubt it was one of the best team efforts during that time as well, with most players ‘having their moments’. According to zone organiser Neil Weinert, Josh Deren, a former Northern Districts player in Adelaide, was outstanding with scores of 17, 36, 63 and 70 for a total of 186 at an average of 46.5 and he thoroughly

deserved his selection in the Team of the Carnival. After oozing potential but seldom delivering in past seasons, Josh appears to have turned it around in 2009/10 and apparently his form at the carnival (batting as an opener), caught the eye of some people that matter, so a return to SACA District Cricket may beckon. Seventeen year old Broken Hill representative Tobias Hack also impressed in winning the wicketkeeper of the carnival award. Another standout performer with the bat was Lameroo’s Haydon Thorpe at number three with 40, 37, 17 and 35 (129 at 32.25), while his club-mate Craig Altus gave the side some solid starts at the top of the order. Of the bowlers, pacy

skipper Drew Crane grabbed the most wickets with seven at a cost of 71 runs but that included a 6/19 against Fleurieu Gold, as, in the main opponents, seemed to concentrate on just keeping the former SA and Victorian Country player at bay. Karoonda’s SA Outbacks player Cory Knight grabbed six wickets as a spinner and 16 year old Broken Hill seamer Curtis Jelbert, five. Reflecting, MDB was probably short of another couple of strike bowlers but I am assured that team spirit was great and that MDB “were not far away�. Eyre Peninsula won the championship, their first success since 1970. By the way, Murray Districts last carnival win was in 1977.

For me, this summer has been something I have only ever dreamed of. ~ Shane Watson

The number of titles already won by Berri in the Riverland Turf Cricket Association this season.

Night cricket under lights a possibility

Gwiazda gears up THE winner of the best and fairest award in the inaugural Riverland Senior Open Women’s soccer season last year, Winkie’s Stacey Gwiazda, is a perfect example of what hard work and grabbing your opportunities as they present themselves can bring. The dedicated 16 year old has been named to play for the Adelaide University division one women’s side. Stacey entered the sport in 2007 and in 2009 trained four nights a week, with Berri River Rangers’ women, men, under 15 boys as well as the Riverland senior women as they prepared for both state and country championships. Then she attended a training day at Renmark that was presented by the Adelaide University Club in December and from there her invitation to play in the city competition followed. Stacey will not be the only Riverlander playing for Adelaide Uni in 2009. Martika Kollias, 13, will be in her second year of playing for

the club’s under 15As who are involved in the junior elite athlete program and are destined for higher levels of competition, including the Gold Coast Cup in September. Early this year, Martika was chosen to attend trials for the Football Federation SA Girls under 14 State Development Squad in Adelaide and as a result is now training for the national junior championships in Canberra in April. Also in January this year, Adelaide University conducted a follow up two day camp at Renmark and from there 12 year old Pirrie Weeks, from Renmark, was named to represent the club’s under 13s.

IN THE Sunday press over the past few weeks there have been references to successful night cricket events under lights at places like Woomera and Port Lincoln. Lincoln has held 12 Twenty20 night matches in 2009/10, attracting over 3500 people to watch. A number of country centres now have an oval with lights suitable for night cricket and obviously for other sports, including better conditions for football. Broken Hill was, I recall, something of a pioneer in the area and quickly attracted the NSW state squad to the venue for crowd pulling pre-season matches. I remember reading a report in which Australian captain Steve Waugh praised the venue as an ideal place for his NSW team to do some pre-season work away from normally wet conditions in Sydney. What am I getting at? Obviously I am asking why not the Riverland? Our major towns all have rea-

sonably lit ovals but while footy is played under lights, it has not been a roaring success because they are simply not strong enough. Players and spectators all have difficulty ‘seeing the ball’. Obviously then we do not have lighting sufficient to allow night matches in cricket and beyond. I know of one cricket club that is pursuing the idea and I understand such a project would not be prohibitively expensive. Also, I understand grants may be available. Surely a strongly lit oval in our region would have advantages for a host of reasons in this day and age and I reckon it should be a priority. A priority that can perhaps be only achieved by one joint Riverland effort – not every town trying to keep up with the Jones’ and from the very top, agonising over such things as ‘why should our neighbours have everything?’ Let there be light – really bright light.

weeks. Kate’s selection is, of course, not only a wonderful personal achievement but is also a big tick for the Academy. This year’s age squads will be announced shortly.

Local weekend sporting action ■ LEFT: Monash's Josh Deren fields a ball in the Twenty20 third spot play-off against Waikerie/Ramco and (below) a wakeboarder hits the waves at the weekend's championships at Renmark.

■ From Page 48 “There will be plenty of well known faces and quite a few players who have been to the event,” he said. Nearly 100 players from all over the world, including from Australia, India, Spain, Italy, USA, Slovakia, Israel, United Kingdom, New Zealand, India, Japan, Chinese Taipei, Hungary and Serbia will be competing. However, all eyes will be on Australian ranked, eighth seed Matthew Ebden and 14th seed Brydan Klein. South African born Ebden, who grew up in Western Australia, has had many career highlights, including winning a qualifying round at the Australian Open in 2007 and 2009. Ebden has paired up with Klein for several doubles titles and boasts a current world ranking of 219. On the other hand, Western Australia’s Klein cracked the top 200 in the world rankings last year, enjoying a career best season in singles in 2009. Other players to watch during the tournament include Australian players Greg Jones and Samuel Groth, who are ranked 246 and 279 in the world respectively. Pinnington said the club is excited by the prospect of seeing the Aussie stars face off. “Brydan has missed out on playing for six months last year (due to suspension for abuse) and is keen to get his ranking back up to where it should be,” he said. “Matt Ebden will want to challenge that.” With twighlight matches to feature at this year’s tournament, Pinnington is expecting the event to generate plenty of dollars for the region. “It’s huge and a lot of money comes into the area,” he said. “We expect a good crowd again.” Internationally, New Zealand pair Daniel King-Turner (ranked 252 in the world) and Jose Statham (ranked 296) are sure to be competitive.

Don can help you develop your ideas or provide inspiration to upgrade your outdoor areas and maximise the space in your garden. In addition to paving, raised garden beds and garden edging created using retaining wall blocks are also a specialty. Sit back and relax and let Don organise everything from earthmoving and quarry supplies to pavers, laying and clean up at the completion of the job.

British India, one of Australia’s biggest indie rock bands, follows soon after. The night will also feature South Australian band Galleon. Friday night is headlined by Australia’s premier hiphop act, the Hilltop Hoods, following the recent release of the group’s latest album, State of the Art.

FUTURE STARS

World class tennis at Berri

By BRAD PERRY THE Riverland will get a glimpse of some of Australia’s top ranked juniors and several experienced players from around the world at this year’s Berri-view Men’s International Futures tennis tournament. With qualifiers kicking off on Sunday, the main draw beginning on Tuesday and finals the following Sunday, Berri-view Tennis Club president Garry Pinnington said the tournament is a great opportunity for locals to see tennis at its best. While there will not be a local representative competing in the tournament due to Luke Saville playing in Spain, Pinnington said there will be a number of players returning from overseas and interstate who have played in previous years. ■WORLD STAGE: Up to 100 players from over 10 countries will compete in this year’s Berri-view Men’s International Futures tennis tournament.
