NEW WAVE OF TOURISTS RTA plans to attract tech savvy visitors to the region
THE Riverland Tourism Association plans to adopt the latest in social media technology to a signage bay in a bid to guide visitors to different outlets across the region. Under the proposal, the “tired� tourism information bay at the Monash Adventure Park will be rejuvenated with signs to be QR coded.
REPORT BY
BRAD PERRY RTA chairperson Peter Freeman said the QR codes function like barcodes and can be scanned using iPhones and Smartphones.
He said by visitors using the QR codes they will immediately load websites, contact details and GPS coordinates on their phones. “The idea is that it would be a demonstration of what the new generation of information bays or in this case, an information room, could look like,�

Mr Freeman said. “In other words, if you’ve got these QR codes featured, then you start to attract the young kids, the X, Y and Z generations. “If they can just go and click on the QR code it’s all there. “I hope it would be a guide to how Riverland tourism can start adopting new social
media technology.� Mr Freeman said the association wants to add vibrant and new generic colour displays of Riverland tourism features in the entrance bay to the Monash Adventure Park. ■Continued Page 5

Have your say on centre THE Barmera community will get its say on the future of the town’s recreation centre and rightly so. To me it seems unlikely that all of the services currently offered at the recreation facility will continue to be on offer. The ball is in the court of the Berri Barmera Council on that one. It seems over the years the region has almost taken a backward step with many of its recreation centres and stadiums. Many of the Riverland towns have ageing facilities that require urgent upgrades to keep up with the demand of frequent use. In fact, many of the last generation of families can recall times they used the local recreation centres and not surprisingly, they say the facilities have not changed much at all. In the case of the Barmera Recreation Centre, it seems the viable option is for it to be leased to different organisations. The Riverland is at the stage where we need to make sure we appreciate being able to access these facilities. We need to be maintaining and increasing the infrastructure in our towns. It is time to put some care back into these venues that we take for granted.

STATE Opposition leader Isobel Redmond and the Liberal Parliamentary Team will tour the Riverland tomorrow. While the schedule for the tour is yet to be finalised, Ms Redmond is likely to meet with representatives of the Riverland Winegrape Growers Association, the Flinders University Rural Clinical School in Renmark and tour the Mindarie Mine. Ms Redmond will also attend the Liberal Party’s Rural and Regional Council meeting at the Berri Town Hall on Friday afternoon. She told the Riverland Weekly the visit is an opportunity to talk to residents about the future of the region. “There’s been concerns about the future of the area in terms of irrigation and in terms of some of the industries that hang off that,� she said. “I remember last time I

Engineering business to expand THROUGH a $22,000 Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund grant, a local engineering business will extend its workshop to keep up with a post-drought increase in demand for manufactured agricultural equipment. Minister for Regional Development and Agriculture Gail Gago announced that Waikerie based Joll Engineering and Retail Sales (including Eglinton Agri-Solutions) will extend its workshop thanks to the Futures Fund. “Joll Engineering provides basic engineering and fabrication servic-
es and retail products to the agriculture industry,” Minister Gago said. “With the end of the drought has come a significant increase in demand for silos and other manufactured agricultural equipment, such as augers and grain feeders. “By expanding production the business will also be able to capitalise on export opportunities and manufacture new products. “There are almost 43,000 small to medium sized enterprises with fewer than 99 employees, or 32 percent of South Australia’s total,
based in our regions. “Supporting businesses such as Joll Engineering plays an integral part in growing the state’s

With the end of the drought has come significant increase in demand. advanced manufacturing sector, diversifying and growing the Riverland’s economy and supporting the agricultural industry.” Joll Engineering joint proprietor David Jolly said the grant is a
“We’ve been unable to meet the rise in demand for silo production, so this expansion is essential to meet current and future orders,” Mr Jolly said. “The funds will be used to ex-
tend our existing workshop for concreting, electrical works and other equipment. “We’ll then also be able to further develop and manufacture our new ‘Ezy Drive Chassis’, an assembly which improves machinery safety and reduces manual work for farmers.” The project is expected to create two full time jobs and one part time job and is due for completion by June 2013. Currently around half of the $20 million Futures Fund has been spent.
Community to be consulted on centre’s future By BRAD PERRY THE Barmera Recreation Centre could be leased out to local sporting groups and a commercial business in an effort to keep the facility viable into the future. The direction of the centre was discussed at a Berri Barmera Council Section 41 Committee meeting on Tuesday night, with current manager YMCA to cease its role on June 30. Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt said rumours the centre would close are not true. Instead he said council will take a new approach to the facility, with a survey to be posted to Barmera residents and frequent users of the centre, so they can provide input into a community consultation phase. “There are rumours going around about the Barmera Recreation Centre and it’s our intention that the centre will certainly not be closing on June 30,” Mr Hunt said. “We are also looking at other options to include the basketball and netball or a commercial group with a qualified instructor
■ FACILITY: The Barmera Recreation Centre will remain open despite rumours suggesting otherwise. to take over the lease or the running of the recreation centre. “What we are going to do is continue be involved a lot more with the running of the centre to just make sure it does stay sustainable for the future.” Mr Hunt said the centre will still remain an important part of the community but may take a different direction. “We are talking to a com-
mercial operator and it could continue with the gym as part of their business, which would be included in that whole package,” he said. “People that use gym facilities now, it just may be a little different but it will still be there in the future. “We would still be involved but the recreation centre does cost a lot of money and I think
if we can see a commercial operator taking care of it by leasing it, it would be a good outcome. “It gives that responsibility for an operator in there to try and make the facility work and be viable. “It’s one of those facilities that a lot of people use and it probably hasn’t been used to its full potential.”
Committee says farmers missing out on millions of dollars RIVERLAND and Mallee farmers are missing out on tens of millions of dollars due to a lack of competition in the grain handling chain, according to the Select Committee on the Grain Handling Industry. The committee will be in the Riverland on Tuesday to speak to local growers about their experiences in the grain industry and the lack of competition to Canadian-owned firm Viterra.
REPORT BY R
C CALLUM TTRIFONOFF State Member for Light and Select Committee on the Grain Handling Industry member Tony Piccolo is inviting locals to the meeting at the Loxton Hotel to voice their experiences and concerns about the grain industry. “We want to know, has their experience been
such that they actually are able to have some influence in the industry?” Mr Piccolo said. Although Viterra denies a lack of competition, Mr Piccolo said there is evidence to back up contradictory claims. “Based on the evidence to date received by the committee, it would suggest there’s a problem there,” he said. “Now the question for us is ‘how do we address that?’
“There’s two ways you can actually ensure you have a fair marketplace. “That is one, where you obviously have a competitive marketplace or one where you try to regulate in some ways.” Mr Piccolo said competition in the grain industry is important for Riverland and Mallee farmers. “Competition actually provides fair prices to the farmers, it keeps the industry efficient and effec-
tive and also provides the consumer with the best prices,” he said. Meanwhile, a meeting will be held in Karoonda on June 4 as part of the State Government’s consultation on how a new voluntary fund for South Australia’s grains industry should be spent. Information from the meetings will be used to establish a five-year management plan detailing how the funds will be distributed.

Producers to feel transport cost rise By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND primary producers are likely to bear the brunt of increased charges in road train registration and a rise in diesel prices from July 1. Local transport companies will be forced to pass on the cost increases to clients. While heavy vehicle A-trailer charges will decrease, the rise in road train registrations and reduction in the diesel fuel rebate will see extra costs passed onto growers. Loxton based Hentschke Transport partner Dennis Hentschke said the business cannot absorb any more costs. “For B-doubles they are saying registration will come down and it will on the front trailer but then they put the registration up on the prime mover,” he said. “We can’t absorb cost anymore,
so whatever costs get added on we’ll just have to pass it on, that’s the downside.” The high price of diesel in the Riverland and reduction in fuel rebate will be another addition to rising costs, according to Mr Hentschke. “A couple of centres a litre doesn’t sound like much but you add it up over a fleet of 20 odd trucks and it could be $200 a day,” he said. “We can’t afford that, where’s that going to come from? “Around here all of our customers are primary producers and they are not making huge amounts of money. “The price of diesel is always a concern because it is such a high component of our input cost.” Mr Hentschke is currently at the Australian Transport Association Trucking Convention in Sydney
where he hopes to be given answers to the current changes. Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the changes will increase the costs of inputs into farming. “Not all primary producers are going to be able to pass on the cost,” he said. “We are on a world market so we just can’t up the price of grain, so the grower will bear the cost of increased transport. “With fresh fruit or horticulture we are price takers, we are not price makers, so again we’ll have to absorb the increased freight cost and it’s just another kick in the teeth for primary production.” ■ CONCERN: Hentschke Transport partner Dennis Hentschke said there is concern about rising costs.

■ Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone believes the government must reassess cuts to RDA funding.
Regional development funding required MEMBER for Chaffey Tim Whetstone believes the capacity of Regional Development Australia in the region will be limited unless the State Government reintroduces core funding in this month’s budget. Mr Whetstone said vital funding for RDA entities will be withdrawn from June 30, 2013. He said the government is yet to assist RDAs to find alternative funding sources. “We get a promise on regional development and all of a sudden it’s the first thing they cut out of the budget,” he said. “Obviously we’re not going to have funding to be able to develop regional infrastructure, to develop regional projects in particular, and that’s what RDA is about. “Will it impact on RDAs jobs? “Obviously it’s going to impact on what they (RDAs) can achieve.”

Golf club to decide future By CALLUM TRIFONOFF RENMARK Golf Club president Peter Ruston has revealed the club is running at a loss. The financial situation will be highly discussed at a meeting to determine the Renmark Golf Club’s future on Tuesday.
Mr Ruston said the club is currently finding it impossible to trade “in a cash-positive position�. “In the interest of ensuring the future of a golf course in Renmark, it (calling a meeting) was the only option the Renmark committee had,� Mr Ruston said. “We’re looking to secure
the future of the members playing at a club in Renmark, therefore we’re increasing the value of a tourism asset in town. “We as a golf club have not been able to turn around the negative trend in cash flow. “Therefore we’re unable to allocate any funds to
course development.� Mr Ruston said the meetings should have been called many years ago. “Renmark Golf Club should have done this seven or eight years ago,� he said. The general meeting will be held at the Renmark Golf and Country Club from 7pm on Tuesday.

Berri police officer receives top honour By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND police officer Carol Bristow’s dedication to helping the community has paid off with the sergeant being awarded a top honour this week. The Murray Mallee crime prevention officer received South Australia’s Police Officer of the Year award at a ceremony in Adelaide on Tuesday. She said it was a proud moment in her career, which spans 26 years with 22 of those in the Riverland. “I was absolutely gobsmacked, really chuffed,� she said. “It makes you feel that what you’ve done and the dedication you’ve put in has been worthwhile when you can see some improvement in other people’s lives as well.� Sergeant Bristow was nominated for the award by the Riverland Neighbourhood Watch group. Over the years, Sgt Bristow has been involved in the Calperum on the Land project and Ebusiness Watch program in the Riverland and Murraylands. The award winning Calperum on the Land program began in 2009 and helps youth at risk with cognitive, life and vo-

The aim of the program is to reduce the incidence of juvenile offending in the region and provide career pathways for young people and to provide treatment for substance abuse. “Just the sense of achieving and trying to make some changes and do something good for the community, that’s what you get out of it,� Sgt Bristow said. “Sergeant Bristow was a member of the founding team that established this program and continues to manage it in her capacity as a member of the Leadership Management Group,� Officer in Charge of the Murray Mallee LSA Superintendent Ian Parrott said. “I am certain the program would not have achieved the successes it has, particularly in the intended areas of improving outcomes for young people in our local community, had it not been for Sergeant Bristow’s efforts.�

Foodbank’s breakthrough citrus trial at new Berri site By BRAD PERRY
■ SPEAKING: Foodbank SA CEO Richard Pagliaro addresses about 70 people in attendance at the official Berri opening last week.
THE Berri Foodbank SA branch, which was officially opened last week, will be the base for a major trial of surplus citrus to be transported across Australia. Foodbank SA chief executive officer Richard Pagliaro told the Riverland Weekly that the trial will be a breakthrough in a bid to help those in need. “We are in the process of establishing a collection of surplus citrus and storing it in the coolrooms here (Foodbank Berri),” he said. “That will be distributed, in part, to South Australia, through Edwardstown to the Adelaide Metropolitan area and also to Whyalla and Mount Gambier warehouses. “Along with that, a lot of this fruit will be going inter-
state to New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.” Mr Pagliaro also said Foodbank may work with farmers to create more opportunities. “We are talking about helping farmers or maybe taking over old blocks and using it as a training facility for people in the region,” he said. “We have a much bigger vision.” State Agriculture Minister Gail Gago was one of about 70 people who attended the Berri Foodbank opening and she said the support for welfare groups in the region has been welcomed. “It’s a huge support to community groups and welfare agencies,” she said. “They now have access to this great quality food they can then redistribute to needy families.”
Humphrey Pump’s heritage award THE Riverland’s own Humphrey Pump has received another prestigious award. United Kingdom based Institution of Mechanical Engineers (I-Mech E) has recognised the engineering significance of the world’s only working Humphrey Pump with the presentation of an Engineering Heritage Award. This is only the second of these types of awards to be presented to an item of engineering significance outside of the United Kingdom. Two Humphrey Pumps were constructed at Cobdogla in the 1920s to supply irrigation water to the Loveday and Barmera irrigation areas. The pumps worked until 1964 and one of them was recommissioned as a museum piece in 1986 and is currently housed at the Cobdogla Irrigation and

Barmera’s clinic’s accreditation By CALLUM TRIFONOFF HAVING met standards set by Australian General Practice Accreditation Limited (AGPAL), the Barmera Medical Clinic has been awarded accreditation. It is the clinic’s fifth award in the accreditation field and comes after it worked for 12 months to implement the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners’ standards for general practices. Barmera Medical Clinic practice manager Kym Bament said to earn the accreditation is a good feeling. “We were the first practice in the Riverland to be accredited,” Mr Bament said. “This is now the third accreditation that I’ve been through as a manager. “It ensures that the practice is operating efficiently and effectively and the staff are properly qualified, the doctors are properly qualified and we’re meeting all the requirements to be an accredited practice.”
Traders launch new group BUSINESSES in the Berri Barmera Council area will have the opportunity to unite under one banner, in a move which is hoped to help bring continued growth into the local economy. The Berri District Business Association will change to a new entity titled Business Riverland Inc from July. Business Riverland Inc president Barry Phillips said the group will aim to reach a wider scope of traders. “Effectively it will enable businesses who become members, we feel, to have the link with a business organisation that will be a lot closer aligned to businesses than what has been in the past,” he said. “We feel by broadening our scope we are going to be touching base with a lot more businesses which is going to be challenging for us but the whole idea is to connect with and create greater opportunities for businesses to enhance themselves.” The name of the new group reflects the ability for businesses in the Berri Barmera Council area to provide services across the region, according to Mr Phillips. “We had 14 options back in March and the name that we chose, Business Riverland Inc, we thought was more synonymous with not only the Berri Barmera Council area but the Riverland as a whole,” he said.

History week event in Loxton offers opportunity to hear local stories
Tony’s early life on the land CREATING a life on the land in the Riverland was not an easy exercise when Tony Auld moved to the region as a soldier settler in the 1950s. The 86-year-old’s story, along with those of several local identities, will be told in a 20 minute time slot during a History Festival event in Loxton on Tuesday. Tony joined the Navy just short of his 18th birthday and upon leaving, took up a job in a cotton mill in Adelaide. “It didn’t suit me, I tell you,” he laughed. From there Tony’s brother Pat suggested he accept soldier settlement by the river. Already familiar with the Riverland after doing harvest working in Renmark during his school days, Tony decided to move to the region and he undertook a two year training scheme in Waikerie to gain enough experience to work on his own soldier settlement property. In 1951, he came to Loxton North with wife Cath and moved into a Nissen Hut on Alamein Avenue.
It was just a short motorbike ride to his soldier settlement property on Gordon Road. “You can understand it was a new challenge and this is what we’d been waiting for,” Tony said. “We were pretty pumped up, pretty excited about it.” Tony’s preference of trees to vines saw him select one of the “good blocks” of land but he said not all of the selections were viable, with many having challenging soil types. Working on his block in the early days was no easy task, Tony recalls. “You had to peg it all out and dig the holes by hand, five and a half acres of apricots and peaches and 15 acres of citrus over two years,” he said. “When you had a big job on though, you worked with a neighbour, that was a good arrangement.” During the tough times many growers suffered from post traumatic stress. “Many growers went to the pub,” Tony said. While the young trees and vines grew on soldier settlement
properties across the Riverland, Tony said the government’s sustenance was not enough to live on and he was forced to find other means of income. “If you were cashed up you didn’t have to go out and work, you didn’t have to grow vegetables but we weren’t cashed up so I did both,” he said. Tony worked a number of jobs including pipe laying, buying tomatoes for Rosella, watering Loxton bowling greens and working at local wineries. He also purchased a vegetable property in Loxton in which Tony had some of the best seasons he remembers. “I reckon we grew the biggest crop of tomatoes that has ever been grown in Loxton,” he said. Tony will speak at a History Festival event to be held at the Loxton Masonic Hall on Tuesday, starting at 7.30pm. Organiser David Kimber said it should be a very interesting event. “Some of the really fascinating history topics are right under our very nose,” he said.

Growers urged to embrace citrus changes STATE Agriculture Minister Gail Gago believes the majority of growers must embrace the concept of one peak body for the citrus industry in South Australia. It was announced at meetings in the Riverland last week that a new body titled the South Australia Regional Advisory Committee (SARAC) would be established under Citrus Australia. Minister Gago urged growers to accept the decision or face a very uncertain future in the industry. “I think this offers a fabulous, unique opportunity to move forward (and) I think most growers will see it as that and will be very supportive of this,” she said. “It’s an industry of 400 growers and I’m not expecting unanimous approval of this but I think
■ ADDRESSING: SA Citrus Industry Transition Working Party’s Neil Andrew at a meeting in Renmark last week. a majority of growers are likely to embrace this. “I’m hoping they will anyway because if they don’t the future looks very grim.
“It’s a future without an industry representative organisation possibly, or if there is one that continues to exist, it will exist in a very divisive climate.” SA Citrus Industry Transition Working Party chair Neil Andrew said Riverland citrus growers are frustrated and are looking for an alternative. “They’re almost saying anything’s better than the current state of the industry,” he said. “I was surprised that people were prepared to consider not even having a South Australian body, although frankly I think most growers would want a South Australian voice to deal with South Australian issues.” Under the new body, the South Australian Citrus Industry Development Board will no lon-
ger exist and Citrus Growers of South Australia is likely to voluntary disband. South Australian Citrus Industry Development Board consultant Peter McFarlane described the decision as “a leap of faith”. “As for the level of independence, it’s not written in any of the documentation, there is nothing written that defines how the committee will operate its level of independence,” he said. SARAC will be funded by a Primary Industries Scheme called the Citrus Growers Fund and a selection committee has been set up to choose members for the new board. Minister Gago said SARAC will establish a five year management plan for the local citrus industry.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Ask tourists about VIC WE FEEL compelled to offer some thoughts regarding the proposed relocation of the Renmark Paringa VIC to the main highway from the riverfront. The VIC is dependent on its volunteers whose time spent manning the centre, especially during the weekend, is much appreciated and valued by tourism operators. Our riverfront here in Renmark is without doubt the best along the whole of the River Murray and much enjoyed by locals and visitors alike, so the position of the VIC at the moment will always get great comments. However, in all the discussions about the relocation of the centre we have not heard any mention of the people for whom the centre is provided – the visitor or potential visitor to our towns. Tourism research and common logic tells us that the VICs need to be on a main highway or thoroughfare so the visitor can drop in without going out of their way, to see what the town(s) has to offer. They are anxious if they have to make a detour to a place they
do not know and cannot see what car parking with their caravan is going to be like, whether they will have to reverse with their van etc. Once the visitor has the initial information about the town(s) and what they have to offer, then they can make a comfortable, informed decision to come further into the town and riverfront. At the moment we get a considerable number of visitors to our VIC but the unknown question is could we be getting more if it was on the highway where so many more just go straight on? The people we have to ask about that is not the local residents or the visitors that are already in the town but those that do go straight on! We need to embrace change, not just for changes sake but because it has the potential to increase our total visitor numbers. The visitor centre should have the visitors’ needs and requirements to the forefront. We are a through passage for the grey nomads, an important sector of our tourist market, in their travels from south to north and west to east, and we need to take advantage of this. The existing VIC could well
become another tourist attraction in its own right Fleur and Allan Carthew, Tourism operator.
Differing museums ON BEHALF of the Barmera Branch of the National Trust of South Australia, I feel there is a misunderstanding about the building of another museum at the site of the old Loveday Hall. The group who wish to get funding from the local council have no connection with the Barmera National Trust. That group is a private group. Their collection has nothing to do with us whatsoever. The two school buildings also have nothing to do with the Barmera National Trust. Yes, we are building a replica of an army hut at our Cobdogla museum to house our ever increasing collection at the national trust museum at Cobdogla. We would ask if anyone has a World War army uniform including the slouch hat or the peck officers cap. We would appreciate if you would like to donate items to our museum to display. We have purchased two man-
nequins to use as models for these uniforms in our display. You would receive a receipt as well and it would be documented as all donations are to the national trust. If you wish to be involved, contact myself (8588 2130) or our chairman Dennis Wise (8588 1427 or denniswise@bigpond. com.au). Our aim is to encourage more visitors to our area by enlarging our general museum display, including the Loveday Internment Camp display. If anyone has any items connected to the camps during World War II, we would be very interested to display them for you. If so, they would be documented and receipts given. The Barmera National Trust is a non-profit organisation, we would appreciate any donations to help us increase our display for future generations so that these valuable items are not put in a back shed out of sight and lost to the general public to see. Our aim is to let people see what our past has been and enjoy our history into the future. Max Scholz, Barmera.
Business Briefs WITH
BARRY PHILLIPS
Launching Business Riverland Inc
W
ELCOME to this first article that will hopefully be the first of many from the desk of Business Briefs. With the announcement of Business Riverland Inc this week, there will be much to discuss and cover as we move toward the commencement date of July 1. While the new organisation will aim to have a close link with all businesses within the current Berri Barmera Council area, any business operating outside this line will have the opportunity to unite with Business Riverland, at their request. So what does Business Riverland stand for and what are its objectives? The new entity has added scope, direction and leadership to its definitive master plan of presenting a progressive and sustainable organisation for its potential members to align with. The importance of business prosperity and growth have also been recognised as key elements, while a strength of Business Riverland will be the unity of both the members and the organising representative committee. Supporting businesses through various forms of promotion, networking and general interaction will be the key ongoing objectives. Connecting with Business Riverland will enable member businesses to have a sense of belonging, to feel a part of a broader Riverland business sector. Local businesses here in the Riverland provide a range of goods and services to an ever demanding clientele, the customer. To have an organisation such as Business Riverland willing to listen, support, promote and assist all of its members, the theme of “Prosper, Grow and Unite” will be a big step forward for everyone. The next article will look at how becoming a member of Business Riverland Inc will be as easy as 1-2-3-4!

Vehicle maintenance
FEATURE
Vehicle’s vital signs
Is your car in need of maintenance? Here are some handy tips on what to look out for.
Oil n ENGINE oil level should be regularly checked regardless of vehicle age. Only top up oil with correct grade as specified by the manufacturer. When topping up oil do not exceed the maximum recommended level.
Tyres n TYRE inflation should be checked every two weeks when cold, recommended pressure can be found in the owner’s manual. Abnormal wear patterns indicates possible wheel alignment or
suspension problems. Vibrations in the steering indicates the tyres may require balancing. Make sure that tyres have a minimum of 1.6mm of tread depth.
Power steering n THE fluid can be checked via the reservoir. For the specific location relating to your vehicle please check your owner’s manual. Only use the recommended oil for your car, this information can be found in your owner’s manual. Never over fill the reservoir.
Batteries n CHECK battery terminals regularly to ensure they are clean and tight. Ensure that the electrolyte level is correct, if topping up only use distilled water. Many newer batteries are maintenance free and won’t require topping up. Make sure the battery is secure. If your battery has not been replaced in three to four years consider a replacement, as battery failures often occur with no warning.
SAM’S 24 hour riverland repairs
Lights and electrical components
Transmissions
n CHECK your lights regularly to ensure they work correctly. Only use the recommended globes. Check other electrical components i.e. horns and window demisters regularly to ensure correct operation.
Cooling n ONLY inspect your cooling system when the engine is cold. Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Check coolant levels regularly. Only use the recommended coolant for your vehicle. If your cooling system requires regular refilling there may be a leak in the system.
n ENSURE that the transmission fluid level remains filled to the correct level. Ensure fluid is not discoloured or burnt. Always use the correct type of oil for your car.
Suspension n SUSPENSION components should be checked regularly for any signs of physical damage and excess wear. Shock absorbers should be checked for fluid leaks. Check your suspension when driving for any abnormalities i.e. steering wheel vibration and nose diving when stopping.
n top: The oil level of your engine is important and should be regularly checked.
Sourced from rac.com.au
Brakes n SQUEALING brakes, grinding on your rotors or unusual vibrations may indicate your brakes need replacing. Another sign of worn brakes is poor brake performance. Ensure that your vehicle's brake fluid is full. Always use the recommended brake fluid for you vehicle, this can be found in your owner’s manual. n power steering: The fluid of your power steering can be checked via the reservoir.

Frequently asked questions
n Why does my steering wheel shake when I brake? The most common cause of steering wheel shake when the brakes are applied is a condition called brake shudder. It occurs when the brake disc becomes unevenly worn. This causes the brake pads to contact the high spots of the brake discs and results in a vibration. This vibration in turn causes a brake shudder that is felt by the driver through the steering wheel. The remedy for this condition is normally to have the discs machined so that they have even surfaces again and the wheel bearing adjustment checked. The brake pads will also need replacing. Any vibration or shudder through the steering, without brakes applied, would normally be associated with wheel or tyre imbalance and is not necessarily a brake fault. n What is the best way to warm up a cold engine in a modern car? Manufacturers in general do not recommend any prolonged
idling as a means to warm the engine up. A cold engine uses more fuel than a warm engine. It is not necessary to warm up a cold engine by letting it idle. Once the engine idle speed has stabilised, which should occur within a few seconds of starting, select the correct gear and proceed to drive the vehicle. The engine will warm up faster while driving rather than idling.
n What does it mean if I have to keep topping up my radiator? The cooling system in most modern day cars is a basically sealed system, which means that when filled with coolant it should not require topping up between services. These systems work by allowing the coolant to expand from the radiator into a small recovery bottle located in the engine bay. Then when the engine is turned off and the coolant cools and contracts, the radiator cap will allow the coolant to flow back into the radiator from the recovery bottle. This keeps the radiator full and able to operate efficiently.
If you are constantly topping up the coolant, check for any external leaks. This is best done when the system is under pressure so it will have to be done while the coolant is hot. Be careful as you are dealing with a fluid that will cause severe scalding burns if it sprays on to you and never release the radiator cap of a hot engine during this process. The far safer alternative is to have your mechanic pressure test the system with a special pump that does not rely on the engine being hot. Leaks from hoses or joints, water pump, Welsh plugs and the radiator are possible causes, but also check the floor below the heater as any leak from the heater core will usually leave dampness on the floor below. n My car makes a clicking noise when going around corners. What could this be? This is a problem that occurs when the Constant Velocity joint, or as they are commonly known CV joints, are worn or faulty. CV joints are used on the drive
Tips for winter driving Battery
Brakes
n BATTERY related breakdowns are the most common problems that motorists have during the cold months. Yet if you take a bit of time to care for your battery, most of these frustrating problems can be overcome. Don’t be fooled into thinking that ‘low maintenance’ or ‘maintenance free’ batteries don’t need any attention – they still need some care, even if it’s only a little. Top up your battery with distilled water regularly so the cells don’t dry out. Remember, don’t use tap water. Any corrosion, which looks like white or green fungus, around the terminals should be wiped away. If it’s too thick to be removed easily, raid the kitchen cupboard for some bicarbonate of soda. Make a paste of this by adding some water, then brush it onto the terminals and rinse off with hot water. The corrosion should then come off pretty easily. If not, it might be time to invest in a set of new terminals. Make sure you don’t do any of this work on your battery on the lawn or in your driveway. The acid will kill the lawn or leave white stains on the cement.
n YOUR brakes can be tested responsibly and within the law on a quiet, sealed road that’s free from oil and water. Apply the brakes fairly hard and take note if the car pulls to one side or if the brake pedal goes close to the floor. If you notice anything unusual, have it checked with a brake specialist immediately. Faulty brakes can be deadly!
Tyres n ALL tyres, including the spare, should be inflated to the correct pressure. Incorrectly inflated tyres limit your car’s braking efficiency and its overall handling. Under inflated tyres are dangerous. If you’re not sure of correct tyre pressure, look in the car owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s specifications. Make sure the tyres have plenty of tread – ideally, they should have a minimum of 3mm tread. Most tyres have wear bars that run across the bottom of the tyre grooves. When the tyres wear to this level, they need replacing.
Windscreen n KEEP your windscreen clean during the cooler weather. Dirt on the windscreen can limit your visibility when driving towards a low sun.

Maintenance for all vehicles CARS are not the only type of vehicle that need regular maintenance. Berri based Riverland Engine Reconditioners owner Brian Jeffery said engines on several types of vehicles including cars, boats, 4x4, tractors and trucks all wear out. “The engine wears out between 100,000 and 300,000 kilometres or when it starts to use oil or its power and economy,” Mr Jeffery said. By replacing an engine or reconditioning a cylinder head, the vehicle can regain lost power and fuel economy.
From the rebuilding of cylinder heads to complete reconditioning, balancing of tail shafts, engine or industrial equipment, to inchassis rebuilds of diesel engines, Riverland Engine Reconditioners has plenty to offer. Mr Jeffery said a boat needs general maintenance at least once every 12 months and cars, trucks, tractors and 4x4 engines need regular check-ups. With 29 years of experience in the trade, Mr Jeffery can help answer any questions about your engine.

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF A SIX-WEEK program providing local Indigenous people with the chance to be employed by national organisation York Civil has been hailed a success. The Aboriginal Recruitment Training (ART) Employment program saw 10 Indigenous locals provide tiling and cementing works to the Berri Uniting Church recently. Having completed the program, York Civil will employ the locals, which project co-ordinator Kenny Kaveberg described as beneficial for them. “What they're doing on the program is very much what they're going to be doing at York Civil when they get employed,” Mr Kaveberg said. “They're getting hands-on training and there's a theory side to it as well.” Mr Kaveberg said future ART Employment programs are likely to be conducted in the region in the future. “A lot of it hinges on the success of this program,” he said. “We had 100 per cent of our participants coming in each day. “We've created some real motivation in the Riverland.” ADVERTISING FEATURE

RIVERLAND residents are being warned to get off their backsides or risk long-term spinal damage and development of chronic diseases. That is the message from the Chiropractors’ Association of Australia (CAA) who is urging residents to sit right this Spinal Health Week (May 21 to 27). As part of the week, local chiropractors Drs Chris and Cherie Haigh, of C&C Family Chiropractic and Dr Ryan Seaman, of Seaman Chiropractic, are launching the CAA’s Sit Right campaign, a national initiative designed to prompt Australians to prioritise their spinal health and take note of the dangers of the simple act of sitting. Dr Chris Haigh and Dr Seaman said prolonged sitting can have dire health consequences as human bodies are designed for movement, not a sedentary lifestyle. “Australians are spending more time than ever sitting, which is placing immense pressure on their spines,” they said. “For optimum spinal health, we need to get out of our chairs. “Many people are also sitting incorrectly, so it’s important they look at the CAA’s Sit Right checklist to ensure they maintain good posture and prevent back pain.”
Tips from the checklist include: ■ Keep your hips, elbows and knees at open angles (slightly more than 90 degrees) ■ Recline slightly to ease lower back pressure ■ Ensure your feet are flat on the floor or on a footrest ■ Factor in short, regular breaks from sitting to stretch, stand, change or correct your posture or walk around the office. For Spinal Health Week, the CAA has also launched a free Sit Right widget, which can be downloaded at www.SitRight.com.au to help prompt you to take regular breaks. To promote the message that a healthy spine leads to a healthier life, the Chiropractors at C&C Family Chiropractic, Renmark and Berri, are available to conduct workplace health
presentations to educate local businesses and their staff. Sit Right and postural booklets are also available from local clinics. “Spinal Health Week is a great reminder to make an appointment with C&C Family Chiropractic’s Business Manager to assess your spinal health and discuss how a more active lifestyle will improve your overall wellbeing,” Dr Haigh and Dr Seaman said. Chiropractors, who are five years university trained, are experts at analysing posture and spinal problems and can provide expert care, lifestyle and exercise advice. During Spinal Health Week, visit C&C Family Chiropractic in Renmark and Berri (8582 4652) and Seaman Chiropractic (8584 7011) in Loxton for more information.

Freehold riverfront shack L
OCATED close to the Morgan ferry you’ll find this elevated two bedroom shack. Despite the close proximity to the ferry, the property is outside the four knot zone so you can ski without a problem. This nice and neat holiday home has provided the current owners with many memories and now they have made the tough decision to sell. The upstairs kitchen and living areas have polished timber floorboards throughout. A well-appointed kitchen is complete with Miele appliances including a wall oven, glass cook-top and rangehood. Downstairs is a lockable storage shed with lights and power and adjacent is an ideal entertaining/barbecue area. Timber decking at the front of the property is waiting for you to sit and relax while watching the mighty Murray go by. Enjoy your time next to the river in any season as the LG reverse cycle split system airconditioner takes care of the climate control indoors. What better time to enter into the holiday home market.

UILT in early 2000 by local builder John Pearce and set within a quiet culde-sac in the Jane Eliza Estate is this very appealing waterfront home. The water views from the home are superb and all living areas, kitchen, main bedroom and outdoor areas have been designed to take advantage of this spectacular outlook. The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and spacious open living areas.
The kitchen is very roomy and overlooks the dining area and the beautiful waterfront. A double garage under the main roof plus a lovely paved outdoor living area add to the high appeal of the property. The home has the benefit of absolute water frontage with easy access to the River Murray and a floating jetty that allows you to moor your boat on your private property.

REVOCATION OF COMMUNITY LAND CLASSIFICATION

The Council undertook a public consultation for 3 weeks on the proposal to lease the Lameroo Lakeside Caravan Park and to seek revocation of the community land classification over the caravan park’s land and this closed at 12 noon on the 12th December 2011.
Real People Sunday 10am Living Passionately Pastor Fulfilling Bill & Rayleen y Destiny Keros
Council prepared its submission and forwarded it to the Minister for Local Government pursuant to the Local Government Act 1999 on the 6th March, 2012. Council has since received advice from staff of the Office of State and Local Government Relations that a recent change in the guidelines for the preparation of the revocation submission to the Minister now requires Council to resubmit the submission in accordance with the new guidelines. The public are encouraged to obtain a copy of the Council report outlining the reasons for the revocation of the community land classification which currently exists for the land on which the Lameroo Lakeside Caravan Park exists. This land does not include the adjacent land comprising Lake Roberts and its built assets. Hard copies are available at either Council Office or can be obtained from Council’s website www.southernmallee.sa.gov.au. During the 6 week public consultation period, the public is invited to comment on their support or objection to whether Council should remove the revocation status as outlined in the public consultation report. Written submissions are to be lodged to the: Chief Executive Officer, Southern Mallee District Council PO Box 49 Pinnaroo SA 5304 or email to council@southernmallee.sa.gov.au until 12 noon on the 21st June 2012 Rod Ralph CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

A DONATION from a local business will mean the Barmera United Soccer Club will have lights at its oval for the 2013 Riverland Soccer Association season. After making the move to the Bruce Oval from the Barmera Oval at the end of last season, the club has been unable to train at its premises due to a lack of lighting. After unsuccessfully applying to the Berri Barmera
Council for a sale or donation of lights, the club received news that Hansen Electrical would donate 13 light poles to be used next season for training purposes. Barmera United Soccer Club president Jim Wallace said the club is delighted to receive the lights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only way we could do it was with major grants,â&#x20AC;? Mr Wallace said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d actually priced into it, it was going to be phenomenal.â&#x20AC;?
Mr Wallace said along with training sessions at the Bruce Oval, the club hopes to start a twilight summer soccer competition when the lights are installed. As several Barmera United players have taken part in a indoor soccer game at the Barmera Recreation Centre in the past soccer off-seasons, Mr Wallace believes an outdoor competition would create interest.

ITF Supervisor Scott Ray praised the efforts of Saville. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has been between 35 and 38 degrees every day with high humidity, and in the face of these added challenges and a string of quality opponents, Lukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability
to maintain his focus, and if you like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;keep his coolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was the foundation on which he masterminded this great result,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Luke has already set high standards of professionalism on and off the court and it is uplifting to watch his successful transition from junior
ITF to pro circuit events.â&#x20AC;? The title marks a significant stepping stone in Savilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career as his world ranking is now expected to rise to the high 500s. Saville will play another Futures tournament in Bangkok before heading to Europe for the clay court season.

In round one, it drew 1-1 to Renmark before following up with its first win, a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Waikerie last weekend.
Renmark-Berri Field and Game shooter puts on fine performance By GRAHAM CHALRTON

lar, family orientated sport,â&#x20AC;? she said. Despite the forfeit, after two rounds, Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on-field results have remained worthy of a champion side.
YOUNG Renmark-Berri Field and Game shooter Kailan Markham put in one of his finest performances to win the A grade competition in a 75 target sporting clays championship held at the Loxton range last Sunday. Twenty shooters from across the Riverland and from as far away as Adelaide took part in the event with good
standard targets presented to competitors but some proving difficult to hit. In round one of the championship, Markham and Adelaide visitor Chris Ball both scored 23/25 to set the pace for other shooters but in round two Ball and Loxton pair Ray Pash and Kevin Nickolai shot 22/25 and Markham 21/25 to set up a tight contest for A grade honours in the concluding round.
Ball and Nickolai dropped off the pace with 18/25 but 19/25 from Markham was enough to give him victory overall on 84/75, with Pash, 22/25, ending up second on 81/75. The B grade went to Matt Redway (RenmarkBerri) 82/75 narrowly from Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ian Jones, 81/75 and C grade was won by Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Peter Harris 84/75 from club mate Mike Woosnam 74/75.

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND FIVE THE OTHER GAMES
MATCH OF THE ROUND
Ramco v Moorook-Kingston MOMENTUM is a big thing in football. Moorook-Kingston has won two consecutive matches but it will take a bigger effort to beat Ramco. The Roosters have made a less than ideal start to the season and currently sit on equal wins with the Warriors. This match should provide a really entertaining contest on the relatively small oval at Ramco. Daniel Conley and Bryce Matthews have been active on the ball in previous weeks. Jamie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Callaghan should have the ruck all his own way against a smaller Warriors outfit without Darran van der Woude.
Alex Rapisarda and Matt Raison will share the ruck duties. Brad Gay, likely to be matched with Brett Smith, is dangerous up forward. A lot of Ramcoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run comes from half back with Max Baddack, Damien Crowe and Daniel Donnely being playmakers. The obvious names loom as potential match winners for MoorookKingston with Kenny Wright and Russell Boatswain swapping on the ball and off half back. Joey Abdulla booted seven goals last round and he is an option up forward along with Daniel Clarke and Ryan Peitrolaj. Ashley Boatswain has also been another handy inclusion for the Warriors. The Roosters have got plenty of fresh legs with Marcus McGrath, Dar-
ren Powell, David Watkins, Shaun Zimmerman, Grant Francis and Mark McDonald returning to the team. For the Warriors, Russell Boatswain is expected to get plenty of attention against his old club. Mark Plew is also an inclusion after crossing from Berri. Ramco coach Andrew Bevan said he is happy with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s start. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year, we were three losses straight up,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We look a lot better than last year.â&#x20AC;? The Warriors will be looking to give teams â&#x20AC;&#x153;a bit of a scareâ&#x20AC;?, according to coach Cecil Rigney. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If our onballers do start getting plenty of drive and run, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready for anything that hits us,â&#x20AC;? he said. In what could be a shoot-out, Ramco should pick up a victory by a slim margin.
THE OTHER GAMES
Blanchetown/ / Swan S Reach v Lyrup rup BOASTING the best defence in the competition, Blanchetown/Swan Reach has made the perfect start to the 2012 season. Facing last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s premier Lyrup, the Redbacks are in form and ready to keep the Lions on the bottom half of the ladder. BSR has lost Ryan Schiller to a knee injury but in a major boost, is hoping to bring Matt Mattner out of retirement.
For Lyrup, Brad Healy returns from suspension, while big men Scott Watson and Nathan Gregory may come back this round. If Watson and Gregory come into the team, they will add some much needed height. Healy is a chance to match up on forward Scott McKenzie, who has 12 goals so far this season, while Ken Karpany may run with prolific onballer Dale Payne. Tom Smith has been in superb form for Lyrup, along with James Abdulla, who may be watched closely by Redback defender Nick Haby.

Hayden Schilling, Ty McKenna and Chris Gregory all in good form. For Karoonda, Josh Rudiger has been commanding in the ruck and making his presence felt around the ground. Sturdy defenders Jarred Graetz or Eli Koch will take the Crowsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; key forwards. BDT currently boasts the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defence, while Karoonda has the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best attack. The Crows will be too strong in a great contest.

form of old. For Karoonda, it was a pleasing win over Peake last round, after the Lions challenged in the first half. League leading goalkicker Luke Hocking was impressive with eight goals. This match is a clash of the competitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best midfields with BDTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jarred Brock, Jarran Crabb and Clint Richardson up against Ben Quinn, Stephen Krezos and Corey Knight. The Crows have a range of impressive big men with
after trailling at three quarter time, while Peake lost to Karoonda after squandering a half time lead. Playing coach Shaun Walker is back from injury for Lameroo but is yet to get back to his best. Shane Agelis continues to be an important focus of Lamerooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forward line and Peake will need to close his space. Craig Altus is also another lively forward after making the transition from defence to attack. Kym Benham has been
consistent in the ruck, while Matt Ridgway and Stephen Kerley were amongst the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best last round. Agelis and Altus will be matched up by Peakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strong defence in Gareth Diprose, Rick Berling and Bennett Pickering. At the other end of the ground, strong Scott Feltus and Jeff Lines are Peakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main options to goal. Both teams are on even terms but Peake should shake off a close first half for a close, hard fought victory.
tive against Lameroo last round and is desperate for a win to avenge last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bottom place finish. Defender Heath Boseley has been superb and he may match up on Daniel Fry. Tryon Bennetts has also proved his worth in the midfield. For Pinnaroo to match it with Murrayville it needs
Ryan Nickolls and Anthony Lippis back in key positions. Murrayville defender Nick Noblett may match up on Clint Muster, while the Bulldog midfield with Michael Worsman, James Lange, Blake Edwards and Todd Jones all need to contribute. The Supa Roos should notch up their first win but this match could go either way.

PARINGA has been the form team of the competition in the first five rounds and lines up against a fresh Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well, after its double bye. The Swans welcome back Wade Simpson for his first match of the season. There is an abundance of talent in the Paringa team with the likes of Tristan Jackson, Nick Carr, Jono Wood and Andrew Lloyd, to name a few. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well welcomes Dallas Wall back from suspension and will look to Brian and Matt Hampel and Jock McNeil to lead the team. Pat Flavel or Bryce Victor will take competition leading goalkicker Dean Hill. Paringa coach Arrod Westley said the team is confident of a win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty confident, at home, we should have no troubles,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re setting ourselves up for a top two finish, anything else, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be disappointed with.â&#x20AC;?

DESPITE losing to MoorookKingston last round, Cobdogla will be hoping to be competitive against East Murray. The Tigers look like the real deal this season, with their only loss coming to Paringa last round. The Eagles are thankful for the break as it may help with the return of Rohan Axon and Mitch Winen. At this stage, Darrell Tilbrook is only a 50/50 chance to return from injury. Eagles coach Brad Gillespie said the team is still not at full strength but there is belief within the camp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like to think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a positive start,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think the young ones would have stepped up as quickly as they have.â&#x20AC;? Young Brok Schubert has surprisingly been East Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s danger forward, while recruit Kenneth Dixon and tall Zak Schubert have been good. East Murray will bounce back from its last round defeat with a win but not after a fight from spirited Cobdogla.

On THE mark
RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE - ROUND FOUR MATCH OF THE ROUND
Waikerie v BarmeraMonash IF anyone can stop BarmeraMonash it is Waikerie. However, the Magpies are still reeling from an upset to Berri and will need to regain confidence to beat the Roos. On the other hand, Barmera-Monash comes off a comprehensive win over Loxton and brings plenty of momentum into this match. Waikerie will be without Matthew Butcher, Daniel Smith and Cameron Schreiber, while several other players’ fitness will be tested before the match. Matthew Underwood was a late withdrawal against Berri and will return, along with ruckman Aaron Nettelbeck. For Barmera-Monash, key player Murray Middleton is back in the line-up and Ryan Burns is a chance to play. Injury has certainly taken its toll on Waikerie but there is still a very good list of players to choose from. Ben Venning has been important up forward and the early news
is that in form Dillon Millard or brother Danny could get that match up. Michael Bratton, Andrew Bachmann, Steven Braun and Joseph Haines have all contributed. Burns or Aaron Manning will watch Bachmann closely. Waikerie’s defence will need to be at its best to prevent the Roos’ forwards getting their hands on the football. Glenn Schrieber or Steven Braun will take Robert Price, while a midfielder may need to be sacrificed for the Magpies to help stop Marc Elliott, who booted eight goals from 14 shots at goal last week. The Roos are flying and rebounding well off half back with Jack Selfe providing run and Michael Smart finding plenty of space. Jake Smith is hitting peak form, along with many of his team-mates. It was good to see Matt Leyson return to the team after a lengthy lay off and he picked up where he left off against Loxton. The luxury of keeping Luke Chamberlain in the ruck means Tyler Baldock has pushed forward and added another option. Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said there is a good feeling
around the club. “We had no injuries from Saturday, so we should have a full side,” he said. Burns said beating the Magpies will be hard work. “It’s very, very tough,” he said. “They are coming off a loss, we have full respect for them. “They’re still the team to beat. “What I saw on Anzac Day (against Loxton North), I was impressed with.” Under 18 players may be used to fill gaps in the team caused by injuries, according to Waikerie cocoach Brenton Kay. He said the team’s loss to Berri was not necessarily an upset. “Upset or not, Berri are a very good footy team,” he said. “We rate them highly.” Several players will be paid close attention in the Barmera-Monash team. “The two Elliotts have taken the competition by storm as has Tyler Baldock,” Kay said. “You’ve also got the usual suspects of (Dillon) Millard and the others.” Waikerie will be stretched to cover the run of Barmera-Monash and the Roos should triumph by four goals.
THE OTHER GAMES
Loxton North Lo v Berri STILL recovering from a shock loss to Renmark, Loxton North needs to beat Berri or it will fall to fifth on the ladder. The Demons are on a high after a spirited performance saw them knock off Waikerie. Loxton North welcomes back some pace through Andrew Baker but will still be without Daniel Proud. Injury concerns also surround Geordie Franks and Ryan Gray. It has been a real team effort for Berri on the scoreboard with Darren Marner and Lachie Jennings leading the way. Ryan Porter and Ryan Langcake have also been among the goalkickers. Demon ruckman Daniel Wilson will compete against
Ben Miller in what could be a crucial contest. Jennings may match-up on Jamie Ferguson, while Mitch Blackie could run with Ryan Proud. To his standards Adam Beauchamp has been relatively quiet and we expect a big game form him this round. If Franks does not play, leaping Ben Walter or big man Scott Golding may fill the role. Nathan Geyer, Daniel Brown and Clint Ridgway lead a formidable defence and it will certainly be hard for the Panthers to score. Both teams rely on their midfield for scoring options and this should make it an interesting contest. Michael Scott and Tim Arnold have hit form at the right time and may play big roles. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said both teams
are pretty even on paper. “We’ve lost two games, one by five points and last week by two goals,” he said. “We had more of the footy than them (Renmark) but we didn’t use it as well. “I’ve seen the two teams and we’re pretty even.” Berri will continue its winning ways with a two goal victory over Loxton North.
All of the Riverland and Mallee football news, views and rumours A CLEARANCE is pending to Peake for who is believed to be former AFL listed Salim Hassan. The talented footballer was on the Port Power list and played at West Adelaide. He also played in the Victorian Football League. It would be a massive inclusion for the Saints. WE HEAR that Mason Middleton’s form at West Adelaide has seen his name appear on the potential scouting lists for AFL clubs. IT sounds like BSR may have enticed Matt Mattner out of retirement.
BROK Schubert has made a great start to the season just four rounds in with 34 goals in the Independents and Independent Colts competitions. COBDOGLA’S Ryan Gillespie managed 17 goals last round in Independent Colts, while Ramco’s Joshua Russell booted 14 majors. THERE appears to have been some confusion in the crowd in previous weeks with many people seeing double with Sam Elliott and Jordan Roissetter at Barmera-Monash.
RFL B GRADE THE B grade competition appears to be a two horse race with the likely grand finalists to meet this weekend. Waikerie and BarmeraMonash are both undefeated. Paul Butterworth with seven goals against Loxton and Brett McPherson have been good, while for the Magpies, Brooke Hoad and Justin Dellazoppa
lead the way. The Roos should win in a close match. Michael Trezise and Jake Albrecht will guide Loxton North to a win over Berri, despite the efforts of Jayme Peltz and Jack Barker. Renmark has been less than impressive and Loxton, with players returning and Grant Dahlitz in form, may win this encounter.

HI

JUST one win separates these two teams but Renmark is slowly climbing its way up the ladder. Loxton has really struggled to put together four consistent quarters. The Rovers will be without Reece Glazbrook who has a suspected broken leg. Matt Martinson was a late withdrawal in the win over Loxton North and will return, as will Adam Bryant. Loxton has several additions to the team in Mitch Fazekas, Brett Manuel, Jarrod Milich and Michael Kruger, while Leigh Kruger and Pat Portolesi are unlikely to return against Renmark.
The Rovers’ Nathan Farr has been prominent in ruck and will test Loxton’s Craig Fisher, swapping with Jacob Harris. Josh Warnock and Trevor Thorpe have provided run from defence, which is what Renmark is known for. The combination of Steven Pitt and Craig Seekamp up forward could be a match winner. The Loxton defence had many problems containing Barmera-Monash’s tall forwards and Andrew Jachmann, Mark Thiele and Nathan Flight will be no match for Renmark’s height. Jamahl Liddle has been outstanding for the Tigers but has been forced to spend most of his time in the midfield.
Liddle or Nick Uren should match up with Jaryd Rowe and Matt Camplin. Raph Liddle, Fazekas or Jesse Smith may stand on Pitt. Loxton coach Mick Zerna said he goes into this match confident after competitive periods last round. “I was reasonably happy with what I saw,” he said. “I think the problem is inexperience. “Turnovers also cost us about eight goals.” Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said there will be plenty of people in attendance at the home game. “It’s sponsors’ day, we want to come out with a win,” he said. Renmark should win easily by 10 goals.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON
The T Riverland’s most authoritative sports commentator ...
Super Looper in final ■ “I AM so proud of my wife Nicole for the work she has done with this greyhound”. They were the words of Linton Price after Super Looper, trained at Renmark by Nicole, won a semi-final of the group three 2012 SA Breeders Plate at Angle Park last Thursday night to gain a start in tonight’s $36,000 final at the track. We wrote of Super Looper’s promise a fortnight or so ago and in the following week he won a 515 metre heat of this event in 30.07 seconds, the fastest time of the heats. Then in the semi-final he recorded 29.23 seconds
in winning by eight lengths, again the fastest time of the night. Nicole trains Super Looper for Dr Peter Hamilton, of Loxton. “Peter has had Prince Ben with Nicole for a fair bit of success and with that dog getting towards the end of its career he asked her to look out for a replacement,” Linton explained. “Soon after that she saw Super Looper in a run on television when he started badly but from four lengths behind worked his way through the field to win. “Immediately Nicole virtually said ‘I want that dog’ and from there she
went ahead and negotiated its purchase from connections at Murray Bridge.” Despite it being a notoriously bad starter, Nicole obviously saw something she liked in this young inexperienced greyhound that has only had 13 starts, nine with his previous trainer and four since being with Nicole. “It was jumping four lengths last but still working its way through the fields to win races,” Linton said. Nicole has worked tirelessly to improve Super Looper’s box manners and now she has her reward, a runner in her first group final. “The greyhound is still
not brilliant out of the boxes but at least now it is running out with the others,” Linton said. Super Looper won its Breeders Plate heat out of box seven and semi-final from box one and has drawn box seven again for tonight’s final. The winner of the other semi-final was My Little Star which has won nine races on end and has drawn box one for tonight. “That dog ran 29.99 seconds in the semi-final, so Super Looper’s 29.23 equates to a margin of about three and a half lengths,” Linton said. Go Super Looper!

■ BERRI and state squad bowler Andrew Hill recently represented a team chosen from all parts of South Australia against a Tri State side involving players from ACT, New South Wales and Victoria in a three game tournament in Euston, NSW. This was the third year in a row the event has been held, after it was originally arranged by South Australian state selector Trevor Lloyd. The two teams both included state past and present representatives right down to developmental type bowlers and Hill believes that Lloyd would be using the event as a guide in his state selection role. “He also uses the tourna-
■ VISITORS from across the border have traditionally dominated the annual Riverland/Mildura – Coomealla Invitational cycling race. However, in the 2012 event held on a Murtho Road course at Paringa late last month it was a number of local riders who shared most of the prize pool of over $400. Club stalwart Angelo Ylia was one of the first to start off limit and the hard training he has undertaken in recent times resulted in him winning the event in a much improved performance. Ruth Strout then started alone at sixteen minutes and despite being caught by two cyclists off 18 minutes, Peter Burr and Colin Gordon, actually continued to spend most of the race out in front on her own. By coincidence Burr and Gor-
ment as a way of experimenting with some team members playing different roles within their rink,” Hill said. “Like number two or three trying out as skipper.” SA won the first of this year’s matches, lost the second on the last bowl of the event and then won the third game for a 2-1 result. Former Wynarka footballer Dwayne Edwards, an elder brother of Adelaide Crows champion Tyson, was also a member of the SA team. Edwards, who now lives at Tailem Bend, travels to Adelaide to play with the Grange Bowling Club and has just forced his way back into the state team for which he has now notched up 12 games.
don both punctured soon after they joined Ruth while veteran Gordon Lawton suffered the same fate. The fastest time for the 50 kilometre out and back circuit belonged to Mildura rider Kevin Tankard, a former tri-athlete, who finished some four minutes behind Ylia in 11th position. A big pack of riders finally caught the lonely Strout and went to the finish line about a minute astern of the race winner with Riverland’s Chris Gartery (27 minutes) ending up second and Nathan Gregurke (25) third. Mildura’s Barry Pollock (25 minutes) and Michael Allord (25) followed with locals Stephen Jaensch (27), Burr, Gordon, Jacob Otto (27) and Strout, who hooked onto the back of the group for 10th and so got herself into the money.

■ STRIKE: Loxton United’s Mark Kershaw will lead his team into this weekend’s match with in-form Renmark Olympic. ■ FOLLOWING a 6-0 victory against Renmark Olympic at Loxton last Sunday, Berri River Rangers really look at home on top of the A grade soccer premiership table after a full round of matches. Rangers had Marcus Drogemuller, Edmond Grosser and Chris Miller, with two goals, the best of an impressive unit, while for a struggling Renmark Nick Rassias and Shane Taylor were its best players. In the other game, Barmera United, with Kosta Zois and Kevin Barber prominent, accounted for Loxton, best served by Joe Perre and Stan Antonopoulos, 4-1. There were some keen contests down through the grades with Berri defeating Renmark 2-1 in B grade thanks largely to a strong two goal performance by Mitchell Knight and Barmera, with a goal from Amalia Alvanos and a best afield display from Christina Vithoulkas, winning a women’s grade game 1-0 against Loxton. In the under 14 grade, Berri, with Adam Drogemuller named best, defeated Renmark No. 2 (Francesco Catalano) 2-1 in a great tussle. This Sunday’s matches are Loxton United versus Renmark Olympic and Berri River Rangers hosting Barmera United at Bruce Oval in Barmera.
■ ALL of this weekend’s hockey action will be at Berri’s Glassey Park with Renmark meeting Waikerie in men’s and women’s A grade matches tomorrow night and, in a full day on Saturday that starts with junior games at 9am, Berri plays Loxton. The Renmark versus Waikerie men’s clash looks to be a toss up as Renmark appeared to be working into a real team system under the Brett Stokes influence last weekend when it had a host of contributors and Aden Shaw, Daniel Shawyer and Jordan Caire starring in accounting for Berri 6-2. On the other hand Waikerie, although going down to Loxton 4-2, has been impressive in its opening two outings with Michael Camilleri, Caleb Catford, Jason Redemski and Mike Kroehn, in goals, in good early season form. Defending champion Loxton showed in beating Waikerie 4-2 on Saturday that it will again be a force, particularly when it has its two stars from that game, Sean Burgess and Steven Trezise, free of Adelaide commitments to supplement the likes of Tim Cass, Karl Hennig and Zac Bartsch. Loxton should have too much firepower for Berri which has a rebuilding plan
in place across its senior divisions. The form of players like Tony Halupka, Heath Pillen, Jason Bowers and Ashley Roberts is encouraging however for Berri. In the A grade womens matches Renmark had to work extremely hard again last week to defeat Berri 2-1 in a dour struggle with juniors Alison Giles and Juliett Mallinson brilliant, and experienced Danielle Weeks finding the goals. It should defeat a Waikerie side that is nevertheless proving competitive thanks to the efforts of Carlye Way, Kristen Pick and Zoe Liebich. The strong Loxton side that won the 2011 title became even more powerful on Saturday with the reappearance of Sara Jenzen after a knee reconstruction last year. The former premiership star was immediately in good touch and along with Billie Jo Hammerstein, Eloise Hampel, Tracey Townsend and Trish Gillard saw the team in full flight against Waikerie winning 5-0. Unfortunately a lack of player availability has seen it forfeit this match against Berri. With Jen Kiel, new recruit Sarah Oldfield, Emma Goold, Kristen Hibberd and some promising juniors Berri was at 1-1 right up until the last three minutes against Renmark last weekend.
Big lifters ■ FOUR local lifters will be amongst the twelve competitors at this Saturday’s Powerlifting SA State Championships at the Vitality Health Club, Berri. Two guests from ACT, will also compete at this Drug Free SA Powerlifting Association event which starts at noon and is open to spectators. The four Riverland powerlifters are Rose Gow (Barmera), Fran Marlor (Loxton), Sheryl Rapson (Winkie) and Andrew Norris (Berri). State and national records will be contested with appropriate officials in place, while lifters will be subject to drug testing. A presentation dinner will be held at the Cobdogla District Club following the competition. For further details telephone Don Juers on 8583 0196.
Centre court ■ WHILE the A1 netball clash tomorrow night between Renmark and Loxton will be a rematch of last season’s grand finalists, it will be far from a reunion of the players that were involved in that game. Renmark, in particular, has a vastly changed lineup but with players like Jesse-Lee Jones and Kelly Nelson in good form in the 53-27 victory over Loxton North in the last round, it will be interesting to see how it performs against its traditional rival. Both sides are undefeated with Loxton getting a solid workout against an improving Barmera last Friday but winning 58-46 thanks largely to the consistent start to the season by ace goal shooter Alysha Proud, Hollie Bullock and Jacki Dahlitz. Tomorrow night’s other game is Berri against Loxton North and this also looms as a real guide to the the season prospects of both rookie line-ups. Berri has perhaps surprised that through the outstanding efforts of Ellee Eleftheriadis, Renmark recruit Tegan Moldovan and Taylee Howard it has got on with the business despite the loss of much of its 2011 squad. North has really stuck to its plan to introduce youth into its rebuilding program. Marlee George and Eri-

ka Sporn were outstanding against Renmark last outing and the Loxton North performance certainly impressed experienced opposing coach Ann Noack who remarked “perhaps all they need is a couple of senior players”. With two such stalwarts Lisa Koehne and Karina Tschirpig starring for the club’s A2 side in a 50-43 victory against Renmark, that option would appear to be available. Meanwhile Barmera has a bye this weekend but will be anxious to re-enter the fray with the form of youngsters Meg Gillespie and Katie Saville, as well as exciting newcomer Mackella Armfield, suggesting a first up win is perhaps not far away under a new coaching team.

The number of players competing at the annual Riverland Senior Teams Tennis Carnival.
SPORT
Riverland pair’s Tour De France ■ RIVERLAND cyclists Steve Jaensch and Angus Boase will be amongst a group of 35 riders and four officials at the 2012 Tour De France as part of a tour organised by the Bikestyle organisation. Earlier this year we reported on the pair competing in the 235 kilometre Three Peaks Challenge in the Victorian Alps at Falls Creek which is recognised as one of the world’s toughest cycling challenges. Well ‘challenge’ must
be the pair’s middle name as in France they will spend from July 8 to 23 riding much of the Tour De France course. “We will cover all of the Alps stages on the Swiss/ France border and the Pyrenees stages on the Spanish/France border as well as about a dozen of the mountain climbs, including the iconic Alpe-d’huez, Col-dutourmalet and Mont-ventoux,” Steve said. “We will be on the bike

Seniors to show talents ■ THE 25th annual Riverland Senior Teams Tennis Carnival is being held this weekend having attracted some 97 teams that involve over 500 players. The tournament comprises men’s and women’s doubles competitions played in age groups of five year intervals from 35 years and over, to 70 and over, with teams being entered from all over Australia as well as from
New Zealand. The event will utilise the grass and hard courts at the Berriview Club plus the grass facilities at other Riverland towns to cater for play which starts at 9.30am after registration at 9.am on Saturday, at 9am Sunday and 8.45am on Monday. A number of keen but friendly rivalries will be rekindled over the three day event between teams that have
around 15 years. “They emphasise that the trip is all about fun and enjoyment and doing the tour-

ist type things as well as sitting on the bike. “We will pass through some unbelievable country along the ride.”
For eight of their 15 days cycling the Bikestyle party will be in a position to see live stages of the Tour De France and they will also be in Paris to witness the finish of the famous race as they will ride the final route into the city themselves on the day before. I asked Steve what preparation he and Angus had undertaken for this latest challenge after the Three Peaks event and he said, “it has only been a matter of
Revamped format for Enduro at Parilla ■ THIS weekend’s Richard Bennett Memorial Enduro at Parilla will have a revamped format and a new section of track. Members of the Onkaparinga Ramblers Car Club spent Easter adding an exciting new area to the 32km course, while a compulsory 30 minute service break has been included between laps four and five in Sunday’s eight lap format. There are varying reports on which drivers will be at this SAORRA Multi Club Trophy series, round three
event, but defending Parilla champion and current points leader Carl Haby is listed as an entry. However his brother Aaron will apparently miss due to employment and Lindsay Foster is said to be another absentee when sitting second on the points table. James Madden with two Parilla wins behind him and Wally Francombe, third on points, will attack the challenging course and a glance at the field overall suggests that there will be a fierce battle for outright honours.
Huge night of racing at Sunline Speedway ■ WHEN details of this Saturday’s meeting at Waikerie Sunline Speedway arrived one word in the preview was certainly appropriate – huge. Two memorial events are highlights of one of the most exciting programs presented at the track. One of the clubs most prestigious races, the Steve Butcher Memorial for Street Stocks, has attracted a dozen or so cars with the result a raffle in such a competitive field, while the Grant
Seeley Memorial trophy race is for Formula 500s. Drivers like Eve, Graves, Mercorella and local Kimmi Strother’s graduation from karts ensure interest and fast racing in a class where the track record was broken twice at the last meeting. Modifield Sedans will boast their biggest field for some time including former Tamworth racer Lindsay Cornwell plus Brown and McCarthy. Some 20 juniors involving Whitehead, Maxwell and
the two Gartner boys will continue to work towards graduation to other classes while the annual AMCA Spectacular has 17 vehicles with Hartman, Chadwick and McCarthy heading a strong field. But that is not all for the final night meeting at the track this season. Racing will start an hour earlier than normal to cater for the program with gates open at 3pm and non stop action from 5pm. Dalitz, Hein and Atkins will
be amongst 11 cars in Wingless Sprints, eight Super Sedans will thunder around the track, and some seven or so Lightning Sprints will include fast female duo Crouch and Weise and local racer Jason Wilson, who won for the first time in grand style at Sunline over Easter. The final event will be the entertaining Figure 8 Race with a huge field of cars guaranteeing the meeting goes out in the way it started with action galore.
Waikerie Horse and Pony Club jumps lots of hurdles to host 29th horse trials this weekend ■ TALK about the Waikerie Horse and Pony Club jumping a lot of hurdles so that it can stage its 29th Waikerie Horse trials this weekend. The annual event was cancelled last year due to flooding of the grounds and over the past seven months, after access to the land became possible again, countless hours have been spent getting the cross country course back in shape on Holder Bottom road. Ironically after the high
river, wildflowers and box trees had sprouted in huge numbers in spring replacing, sadly, the many native trees that had been planted and hand watered through the years of drought by volunteers but had not survived the flood. Then in November, that destructive storm that hit Waikerie caused some 50 per cent of the trees at the grounds to come down, blocking the tracks and course and destroying jumps.
Neideck wins at Waikerie ■ LAST Saturday’s Stableford at the Waikerie Golf Club saw Justin Neideck take out division one with 43 points and Nathan Cronin win division two with 37 points. It completed a good week for Neideck as on the previous Wednesday he won a similar event on a count back from John Schumann after both finished on 42 points. Sandy Schultz won a ladies event on Thursday with 33 points ahead of Katrina Webber, 31. At Berri last Wednesday, John Penna included a birdie on hole six in his winning total of 41 points, one clear of Allan Dand, while on Saturday Rob Day with a nett 72 won round three of the major medal competition.
Les Campbell finished runnerup on 73 points on a count back from Tim Branford. Sunday’s Stableford went to Kelvin L’Estrange on 36 points. At Barmera Luke Hampshire had his driver at full throttle on Saturday and was also on target around the greens as he produced 74 off the stick for a net 66 to win the A grade stroke competition and take out the Privilege Cup. The runner-up in the A grade was Neville McPherson with a nett 70 and the B grade winner was Peter Fisher also with net 70. On Sunday, McPherson won a par event with birdies at the second and 17th holes a feature of his round.
Volunteers have been active almost daily since Christmas restoring the area but then the threat of another high river became an issue this year and it was only a fortnight ago that the decision was made to go ahead with the 2012 event, even though some of the lower lying jumps are submerged. New jumps using some of the timber cut in the cleaning up process have been erected on higher ground.
Cutting up timber, carting it away, cleaning up leaves, small branches and undergrowth and burning off, with its associated fire hazards, has been a massive task. But to the credit of everyone involved the show will go on with dressage and show jumping on Saturday at the Pony Club grounds off Curtis Road and cross country at Holder on Sunday. Admission is free and everyone is welcome.

It is not difficult to envy these two fellows as they travel to some of the most famous places in the world and at the same time get to witness an event that is recognised as sport’s most toughest.

■ SHIRTS: Tour of the Riverland riders will wear the ‘I Love Murray’ shirts during the big race. ■ SOUTH Australia’s richest and biggest cycling weekend that includes the 81km Tour of the Riverland returns for the 38th year on Saturday and Sunday, May 26 and 27. This Norwood Cycling Club event has had only one race director since its inception in Barry Skinner and he telephoned me last Saturday excited on a number of accounts. Firstly, he acknowledged the ongoing support for the long standing event, including Paccuci taking up major sponsorship naming rights and a number of local organisations who continue to contribute to the event’s prize pool of over $20,000 in cash and prizes. Also, he was pleased to announce that after negotiating with The Advertiser, permission for the ‘I Love Murray’ slogan to be worn by riders over the weekend has been granted. The Tour of the Riverland on the Saturday travels from the Berri Resort Hotel (1.30pm start) to Loxton, Berri Estates Winery, Renmark and finishes near the Berri Foodbank site. An under 17 junior handicap starts at 2pm at the same spot and travels 38 kilometres to Loxton, Berri and finishes near the Berri Foodbank. Then on Sunday both seniors and juniors are back at the Berri Resort Hotel to start. A 40 kilometre senior handicap at 10am goes to Berri Estates Winery, back through Berri to Renmark and returns to finish near Berri Foodbank again, after a junior 40km handicap travels the same journey from 8.45am.

SAVILLE WINS IN THAILAND COBDOGLA rising tennis star Luke Saville won his first Futures title after a hard fought win in a tournament in Bangkok, Thailand, on Saturday. In hot and humid conditions, the 18-year-old defeated world number 385 and number one seed Di Wu (China) in the second round before toppling sixth-seed Arata Onozawa (Japan) and seventh-seed Shuichi Sekiguchi (JPN) to reach his first ever Pro Circuit final. Saville, the world number 742, then fought back from a set down to win

the championship over unseeded Frenchman Antoine Escoffier, 2-6, 6-4, 6-0, on Saturday. “It was great to win my first pro tour title, especially as I saved a match point in my first round,” Saville said. “I’ve been training really hard over the past couple of weeks and it is pleasing to come out with a victory under my belt. “I’m hoping to build on this in my preparation for upcoming events.”

ARGUABLY the most dominant Riverland women’s hockey team of the past five years has forfeited this weekend’s match. Reigning Riverland Hockey Association premier Loxton will not play in this week’s A grade women’s game against Berri due to seven players being unavailable. Loxton coach BillieJo Hammerstein said there is nothing more to the forfeit than simply the unavailability of players this round. “Obviously, we’re

going to have players out from time to time, it’s just one of those weekends where there’s a majority of players out,” Hammerstein said. “By next week we should have all the players back.” Despite several players from all teams competing in competitions outside the region, Hammerstein is confident that the Riverland Hockey Association will continue to have plenty of players to choose from this season. ■ Continued Page 23
