WINERY FOR SALE
A WAIKERIE based winery is on the market in a decision aimed at helping to secure the long term future of the business and its employees. One of Australia’s largest independent wine industry service providers Boar’s Rock is selling the company as a going concern or individual assets, which includes its Waikerie winery.
REPORT BY
BRAD PERRY The company purchased the Riverland winery in 2005 with the ability to crush 40,000 tonnes. Owners of Boar’s Rock have completed a review of operations
and at a recent board meeting, directors decided to seek new owners for the business and its assets. Boar’s Rock chief executive officer Adrian Lockhart said the decision to sell was not based on the challenging times in the wine industry. “There seems to be a lot of interested buyers in Australian wine assets at the moment, so timing
is right for an opportunity to look for new owners or strategic investors to take the company forward,� he said. “The Australian wine industry, for at least the past five to eight years, has certainly been very, very tough and I don’t think there’s a wine company out there that hasn’t had to tighten its belt. “Being the normal cycles in
agriculture, they (the owners) just recognise that the timing is right to take that as an opportunity to move on.� Mr Lockhart assured Boar’s Rock customers, suppliers and partners that it will be business as usual whilst the company re-establishes and seeks new owners. ■Continued Page 2

Elderly can’t afford carbon tax THE Federal Government’s decision to hand one off payments to 28,200 Barker pensioners is certainly an interesting one. There is no doubt the payment is a ‘sweetner’ as the government prepares to introduce the carbon tax. Many of the seniors in our community survive off a lowly pension, with some struggling to afford the cost of living. As of July 1, the elderly will also have to add another extra cost to their already rising utility bills. A measly $380 handout for pension couples will not stretch too far. The Riverland Weekly spoke to local seniors who expressed concern that bills for electricity and water, especially, were continuing to rise. Much of our older community are unable to get their heads around the carbon tax. Why is it being introduced? How much do we have to contribute? Where will our money go? These are all valid questions. We must also remember that the carbon tax will impact everybody, not just pensioners. It is scary to think that the extra dollars added onto bills due to the carbon tax could force people into welfare.

THE State Government has no intention of reducing the level of services currently available as part of a proposed merger between The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and the Department for Water. Under the proposal, the two organisations will form one agency from July 1, in a move set to save $6.7 million. A State Government departmental spokesperson failed to outline whether lo-
cal jobs will be impacted as part of the merger, with Berri based DENR involved in the process. “Fully integrating the management of natural resources, including water, into a new single department will build on the government’s agenda to improve the management of natural resources and make sure we have an integrated approach to using our natural resources sustainably,� the spokesperson said. “The two agencies are due to merge on July 1 and work
is now underway to plan for that change but there is no intention to reduce the level of services currently available. “As a government we want to make sure community members can readily access advice and resources on best practice land and water use and environmental management. “Creating the new department will make that access easier by giving the public a single entry point for these services.�
Peak wine bodies to visit region By BRAD PERRY TWO peak wine growing bodies will visit the region on Monday, meeting with growers, winemakers and key stakeholders to discuss a proposed merger. Wine Grape Growers Australia and the Winemaker’s Federation of Australia will hold a meeting at the Loxton Research Centre to discuss the proposed merger of the Grape and Wine Research and Development Corporation and the Wine Australia Corporation. Representatives from the two peak bodies, Lawrie Stanford and Tony Battaglene, will be on hand at the meeting. Riverland Winegrape Growers Association executive officer Chris Byrne said about 45 people attended a seminar in the region held last week by the board of the Grape and Wine Research and Development Corporation (GWRDC).
■GRAPES: Two peak wine growing bodies will visit the region on Monday. The board made a special Riverland presentation at the seminar promising direct investment of $125,000 into extension and adoption activities in the region over the next 12 months, as part of a new five year plan. “The management team and the board, chaired by Rory McEwen came up and made a presentation to the region about their research and development program supporting winegrape growers and winemakers,� Mr Byrne said. “The growers were all very

SIXTEEN businesses have lodged registrations of interest to be involved in the Riverland Tourism Association’s proposal to install QR coded signage in the region. The interest was shown at an RTA member’s night held at Banrock Station last week. RTA chairman Peter Freeman said 41 members and guests attended the event, creating discussion about tourism in the region. The proposal to revamp the Monash Adventure Park tourist information bay to include QR coded signage, which can be accessed with iPhones and Smart Phones, has pushed forward, according to Mr Freeman. “We’ve got to sit down and come up with costings for doing new signs and to decide on a annual subscription,� he said. “Universally everyone was really impressed about what QR codes can do and what it can offer for the tourism industry.�

He is confident there will be lots of interest in the sale of the company and the Waikerie winery. “It’s just securing the future for the business and its employees and hopefully it means a new start and a new opportunity to plan even further into the future,� Mr Lockhart said. “We certainly believe the timing is right to undertake this process, so we’re very confident that we will be able to find a buyer. “A cycle is a cycle and if we get to the point and we don’t have an appropriate investor or new owners at that point, then we’ll just re-evaluate our position and then try and identify a time when we might be able to go through the process again.� Boar’s Rock owns three wineries in McLaren Vale, Waikerie and Margaret River, Western Australia. The company has appointed Colliers International to conduct an immediate public sale process. Colliers International Director Tim Altschwager said he expects a great deal of interest in purchasing the company both domestically and internationally. “Offers will be considered for all or parts of the assets of Boar’s Rock, which opens it up for maximum interest,� he said.

pleased with it, they were satisfied that GWRDC have consulted widely. “Obviously it’s a lot of money and we can use it very well by conducting workshops and extension programs so growers can have the benefit of this research and development knowledge that they are already paying for.� Some of the innovative research the funds will go towards includes mulching trials, salinity and water efficiency, soil health trials and biodiversity in vineyards.

Three jobs lost as company goes into administration
Game over for local store A VIDEO game store based in the Renmark Plaza closed this week impacting upon three jobs after the company went into administration. Administrators of overseas company TGW Pty Ltd (trading as GAME), PricewaterhouseCoopers announced the closure of the Renmark store on Monday. PwC partners Kate Warwick and Greg Hall said after reviewing the financial performance and profitability of the individual stores and with regard to current discussions with interested parties, it is not possible to continue to trade at the Renmark store, as well as many others across the country. “This is a difficult time for employees and closing the stores was not a decision we made easily,” Ms Warwick said. “However, it is not financially viable to continue to operate at this level at this time. “PwC has been in touch with the Federal Government department that deals with General Employee Entitlements and Redun-

Flinders to seek new funding avenues for project By BRAD PERRY A $24 million project to build a Riverland Clinical Education Centre close to the region’s major hospital in Berri has been unsuccessful. The Renmark based Flinders University Rural Clinical School applied to the Federal Government’s health and hospitals fund for the project but was denied access to the pool of money. With backing from the Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund to the amount of $2 million, Flinders University Rural Clinical School director professor Jennene Greenhill said the project will remain on the agenda with different funding avenues now being sought. “The idea was to build a Riverland Clinical Education Centre and the centre would have en-

already work at the hospital,” she said. “It was unsuccessful at this stage and that was a little disappointing. “We are not going to drop the whole idea because it is actually a really good idea and it something, I believe, the Riverland is still strongly committed to. “Our plan is to continue to look at that for an alternative option depending on different funding sources.” Professor Greenhill said there are two options for the project, with the first being to build the centre at Berri connected to the Riverland Regional Hospital, or build the new clinic in Renmark and extend the current facilities. “Either way we would like to expand,” she said. With a proven track record of training medical students, profes-
sor Greenhill said the Riverland has the demand to meet the proposed centre. “We have a high demand for the courses we currently provide and this provides us an opportunity to expand into four disciplines and offer clinical support and training for allied health professionals, for example,” she said. “We’ve got a highly successful program that delivers rural doctors across Australia and it takes a long time to train a rural doctor. “What we’ve shown is if you attract people from a rural background and have rural people involved in the selection process, you’re on the track to success. “We appreciate all of the ongoing commitment from the community and education is an important strength for the Riverland in the future.”
As river flows recede, work recommences at Chowilla WORK has recommenced on the $40 million Chowilla regulator project after recent high river flows stalled activity at the site. Water is being pumped from the area as workers prepare to resume full time activity on the regulator. Department for Water resource and environmental manager Richard Brown said flows into South Australia are expected to recede to 37,000 megalitres per day this week, meaning work on the regulator can resume. “In the next two to four weeks the flow is going to really
slow down coming into the state bringing it back down to normal levels,” Mr Brown said. Living Murray co-ordinator Tony Herbert said the revised s g d finishing date for the project is

process, Mr Herbert said it has been frustrating and he admitted there will be “budget implications”. “It has been nice to see a bit of water come down but it has
been a little frustrating from a construction perspective,” he said. The recent high river has benefited the Chowilla Floodplain and Mr Herbert said once complete, the regulator will help ensure the area survives during the drier years. “It will mean you’ve basically got the capacity, under fairly low flow conditions, to actually water a considerable part of the Chowilla landscape,” he said. “So it’s really about ensuring the long term health of that site and not being reliant on wet years and natural high flows.”

tax when it is introduced on July 1. “Why are they hitting us with a tax that we don’t need, which they’ve got to compensate us for?”
Mr Francis said. Berri senior Kathy Caddick said the one off payment will not reach far with increases in utility bills. Renmark’s Jack Glaz-
brook agreed. “The water’s going up, the power’s certainly going up and the phone bills are as big as they’ve ever been,” he said.

can make up for the rising utility bills. Berri couple Neil and Bev Francis said the cash bonus is a “drop in the ocean”, which in the long run will not help them greatly. The pair said the money could be better spent in either health or education. “The money that we get, it won’t help very much because there is an 18 per cent rise here and a nine per cent rise there,” Mrs Francis said. “I would rather have seen nobody get anything and that money, which is in the millions, go into health and education. “The other thing I’m concerned about is that with some benefit people, the money may not be used for what it’s meant for and it will go to the pokies.” Along with many other pensioners across the Riverland, the Francis’ are concerned about the impact of the carbon
AN INSPECTOR from the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture Forestry and Fisheries conducted a three day tour of the Riverland this week to assess the fruit fly measures put in place to prevent the potentially devastating insect. With Japan being one of the Riverland’s largest citrus export markets, the annual visit is assurance the region is continuing to keep the region fruit fly free. South Australian Citrus Industry Development Board chief executive officer Andrew Green said Japanese quarantine officer Michiko Abe was very pleased with what she saw. “The reason they come to the Riverland is that they need to confirm that we’ve got arrangements in place which verify that we don’t have fruit fly in the Riverland,” Mr Green said. “I’ve got to say that this inspector was highly impressed with the amount of effort that goes into keeping fruit fly out of South Australia. “If we didn’t get fruit fly area freedom recognition then it would mean we would have to cold treat our fruit and I’ve calculated that would cost our industry close to $2 million.” Mr Green said questions have been raised over the need for the regular visit but the Japanese Government continues to

Photo: CALLUM TRIFONOFF insist on the inspections. “The citrus board has been in discussions about the prospect of accepting our status without those annual visits because it costs a bit of money to get the inspector out here, which the board pays for and facilitates,” he said. “We’ve asked the question as to whether it’s necessary and we continually ask the same question but at this stage we haven’t had a positive response.” During the quarantine officer’s visit, she visited Riverland pack-
ing sheds and the Yamba fruit fly roadblock. The annual visit is prepared and funded by the SACIDB in conjunction with the Australian Horticultural Exporters Association (AHEA), Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) and Primary Industries and Regions SA (PIRSA). Meanwhile, last Thursday a delegation from the Indonesian Government was in the Riverland to look at State Government procedures used to manage the Riverland’s fruit fly freedom status.

Where’s our sign? OLD signage directing visitors to the Wilabalangaloo nature reserve has been removed, leaving the tourist attraction without promotion off its highway location in Berri. South Australian National Trust heritage manager Glenn Williams said he has been unable to find out who removed the signage and why. “We certainly weren’t advised they were going to pull down the old ones,” he said. Mr Williams will put in a request to the State Government to find out what happened to the signage. He said the trust cannot afford to erect new signs directing people off the highway to the reserve. “We had sought quotes for upgraded signs to be placed 400 metres either side of the entrance and directly opposite the entrance,” he said. “We got back a bill that we couldn’t afford to pay. “We’d be very keen for that signage to go there but we need to
Big Boys Toys -INI &IELD $AY get sponsorship essentially to have them replaced.” Signage is vital to continue to promote that Wilabalangaloo is available to the public after the reserve reopened last year, according to Mr Williams. “You need those big tourist signs to capture the attention of those people that like to drop in off the
cuff when sailing by,” he said. “We think it’s important to help continue to promote the attraction for the local Berri people but also for the National Trust.” Currently minor repairs and renovations are being made to the Willabalangaloo homestead with the idea to have residential tenancy at the site.
Victorian growers tour Lower Lakes A GROUP of 10 Victorian growers travelled through the Riverland to the Lower Lakes on Monday to assess environmental works and measures at the bottom end of the river. Plans are already in place for the visit to be reciprocated with South Australian growers, including Riverlanders, to travel to Victoria to look at environmental efficiencies put in place across the border. National Irrigators’ Council chief executive officer Tom Chesson, who helped organise the trip, said the two states can work together to achieve
“There is a lot in common when it comes to irrigation techniques and products that are grown between Mildura and the Riverland.” Irymple dried fruit grower John Prictor, who took part in the tour, said there is no angst amongst South Australian and Victorian growers. “We were given the opportunity to come down and have a look and find out how tough they are doing it at the bottom end of the river,” he said. “There doesn’t seem to be any ill feeling between the irrigators themselves.”
the best outcome in the Murray Darling Basin Plan. “One of the ideas was that the Victorians could go down and have a look at the issues that aren’t just about adding water,” he said. “At some stage the Victorians up at Mildura are very keen for South Australian irrigators, whether they are from the Riverland or wherever, to have a look at the salt interception schemes up there they’ve got operating, as well as some of the proposed environmental works and measures they are talking about.
Calls for another round of revision over Murray Darling Basin Plan By BRAD PERRY SOUTH Australian Murray Irrigators chair Caren Martin is calling on the Murray Darling Basin Authority to have another round of revision before pushing ahead with the plan. The revised Murray Darling Basin Plan was released on Monday, with no changes to sustainable diversion limits for South Australia remaining on 2750 gigalitres required to be returned to the environment. Mrs Martin said she was “astounded” at how quickly hundreds of submissions and feedback from public meetings were reviewed prior to the release of the revised plan. “I think across the board everybody has agreed we need a basin plan and if that be true, I think it wouldn’t hurt to have another round of revision and get it right,” she said. “I am quite astounded at how quickly they managed to address everybody’s submissions given the sheer volume and blowouts in timelines that were necessary before the consultation phase to get the plan right. “We were happy to concede that it would take time to get the plan right, and then you get feedback and it gets to the point where less people now agree with it than ever before.” Mrs Martin said the plan does not give the community and irrigators a clear picture going forward.
“From a community and an irrigator’s point of view, at the 2750 mark there is still this big 400 to 500 gigalitres of downstream shared portion,” she said. “Nobody’s talking about how they are going to recover that and that’s monumentally huge for basin communities and that’s just at the 2750 point.
really are quite small.” SA River Communities’ Gavin McMahon said the revised plan is disappointing because issues raised by the community were not taken up. “In fact you’ve really got to say the time and energy the community have spent in trying to get some change, was it really worth the effort or should we just have focused back inside on our own businesses?” he said. “We made a number of suggestions about trying to get recognition for those who have performed well and have been historically responsible for water and that wasn’t taken up. “We prepared submissions, we’ve flown to Canberra, we’ve had workshops over here and after you do all of that and find no change, there’s nothing other than to say we are really disappointed.” As Premier Jay Weatherill threatens legal action over the plan, Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the Premier needs to rethink his approach. “I think our Premier is not helping South Australia because he’s living in fairy land if he thinks the other starts are going to agree to 4000 gigalitres and no water from South Australia,” Mr Whetstone said. “We have to work with other states to get reform and at the moment we are working against them. “We all want more water (for the environment) and that’s fine but who’s going to give it up?”
I am quite astounded at how quickly they managed to address everybody’s submissions.
“We can’t support anymore (reductions in SDLs) because on a human level, it would have far too great an impact and I think that’s the reality of the situation that everybody has to keep in the back of their minds. “The volumes compared to the rest of the basin are quite small comparatively, so you don’t have to take a lot to have a big impact and that’s what I think our Eastern neighbours are forgetting, is that we

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF A LOCAL organisation has been recognised for the time and dedication put in by volunteers at an awards ceremony held in Adelaide on Thursday. A 35-member group known as Friends of Loxton Historical Village received the Minister’s Award at the Heritage Heroes Awards after having made a significant contribution to recognising, celebrating and conserving South Australia’s heritage. The group, which consists of dedicated volunteers working at the Loxton Historical Village, was nominated by chairman Deb Thiele. Friends of Loxton Historical Village secretary Shirley Gibbs said the award is acknowledgement for the work put in by volunteers. “It’s not for recognition but it’s good to know that somebody appreciates you,” Mrs Gibbs said.

units in Berri. Newly appointed site manager Cale Edwards said the units will be one to two bedroom options. “The waiting list on Housing SA and to find rental houses here at the moment is quite high,” Mrs Edwards said. “Giving them (the residents) another option would be great.” Mrs Edwards said the extension of the facility is important for a number of reasons. “I think because of the ageing population and the grey nomads, the places needed for aged care are only going to get bigger so I can see our home getting larger not smaller,” she said. “We deliver a high level of care now, to take that to the next level will be great.” The staff at the home will also implement new lifestyle programs next month for the town’s older residents and those who are disabled and isolated.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Drivers at fault I NOTE with interest your call for more stop signs (Riverland Weekly, March 24) and also from the lady who was in a traffic accident at the junction of Tarcoola and Rialto Street. If there were more stop signs, they would, in the end, be treated by drivers just as a give way sign. It is because there are few that they are more important. It is not the roads, or the signage that is at fault, it is the drivers themselves. If drivers read the roads properly and stuck to the rules, instead of just thinking how quickly they can get from A to B, they would certainly be safer drivers. Some drivers just do not bother to think of the consequences of their actions on other drivers. Ann Woolf, Waikerie.
Promoting our region IN THE Riverland we need to promote our own region and not wait for somebody else to do it for us. The South Australian Tourism Commission or anybody else for that matter, do not have the passion or the need to promote the Riverland. We need to make sure we market ourselves as the Riverland as other states also promote themselves as
the Riverland. A number of visitors search the internet to determine where they want to holiday and by adding the word Riverland in the address for accommodation, restaurants, caravan parks and the River Murray, that would be beneficial. Destination is a superfluous word when using the internet (if it is part of a particular marketing campaign, maybe it would work to our advantage). We could use the Yamba Tyre to our advantage by adding a welcoming slogan such as ‘Welcome to the South Australian Riverland’. On the reverse side the tyre could say ‘Thank you for visiting, come again soon’. Something similar could be said via large signage at the entrance to Blanchetown. This all needs to be backed up by service and the actions of friendly people, friendly smiles and helpful businesses (when business isn’t good or you have other things in your life – it’s not always easy). You may only see this customer once and how you greet them can make or break the connection. If they are not satisfied they may choose to take their business elsewhere. Instead of spending money on transferring visitor information centres, why not put money into upgrading the Renmark or Waikerie airports? In time, this could be backed up by a low cost bus service
Riverland Opinion Do you think there should be more stop signs than give way signs in Renmark?
or hire car which may help expand the services of local businesses. This would be beneficial to the Flying Doctors, which is already increasing flights in the region for medical reasons. Residents with family members interstate would then visit more often if it was easier to fit into their busy lifestyles. Currently, it is three hours return to Mildura Airport by road or five hours return to Adelaide Airport by road, which is added to your flight time. This means residents can’t always manage a weekend with families and be back here to fulfill their work commitments and the same goes for family members who may already be flying around the country for work during the week. The extra road travel time to catch a flight from Adelaide also impacts upon Riverland residents who are going on holiday, both domestically and overseas, and people living here and commuting to work across the country or the world. Upgrades to the Renmark Airport could result in mining workers taking advantage of the fly in/fly out concept and the ability to transport visitors to the region more quickly than the current situation. Tourists constantly arrive in Adelaide on cruise ships and having domestic flights to the Riverland could mean a day trip to the region is a possibility. The visitors would also get to
see the mighty River Murray by air, as well as on the ground. A bus could meet these visitors and take them on tours of the river and the region, maybe even including an overnight stay. I have no doubt that if the packages were attractive enough, the cruise ships would be interested. This would boost the local tourism industry and inject some much needed money into the economy. If councils are still inclined to move the visitor information centres, for goodness sake, work together as a Riverland community, not just one council in one town. We need input on the proposed Renmark Paringa Visitor Information Centre move by the whole region. There is another major issue we need to think about, have we considered how many current talented residents will be lost to the Riverland as they reach retirement age and choose to live in/or near the city so they can access an airport easily? This would include medical staff and tradesmen/women who prefer to scale back to part-time work. Reasonably priced meals and good cheap transport options would also encourage baby boomers to retire to the Riverland. We have wonderful weather, community spirit, good fresh foods and water in the river and Lake Bonney.
RECENTLY, Helen Barney and myself received an invitation from the National Trust of South Australia to attend the launch of the NTSA Wiki website and be presented to the Governor of SA His Excellency Rear Admiral Kevin Scarce. A function was held at Ayers House on Wednesday, April 18 at 5.30pm. This website lists South Australian innovations and inventions over the years gone by. The innovation that I sent was the gypsum prefab walls that T.C. Moritz manufactured in the late 1940s for a number of years thereafter. T.C. Moritz constructed the first housing trust homes in Dickerson Street, Barmera. I actually helped to make all those walls plus other jobs. This was my first job when I left Glossop High School. The document that I wrote is still in draft form. I have not put it to print, the Barmera Branch of the National Trust of South Australia has it, as do the Berri and Barmera libraries. It is there for years to come, as is a lot of other local history such as the Loveday Internment Camps.

I think they’ve changed the rules (on Renmark Avenue road works). It used to be a stop sign, now it’s a give way sign. It should go back to being a stop sign.
I don’t think it will make a difference.
I would say there are certain places where you could have traffic lights.

The biggest job of his life Ted Townsend had heard all about world land and water record-holders Malcolm Campbell and his son Donald...he just never expected to become part of their history. By ALAN ERSKINE THE telephone call came out of the ‘blue,’ catching longtime Renmark-based Dunlop tyre fitter Ted Townsend by surprise. On the other end of the phone was Ted’s Adelaide boss, telling him to pack his bags and get up to remote Lake Eyre for the biggest job of his life, helping Donald Campbell break the world land speed record in the famous Bluebird car. It was the start of a sixweek adventure for Ted, a trip that ended in disappointment, but which set the scene for a subsequent successful attempt by Campbell the following year. Ted, whose business interests over the years included the well-known company Townsend’s Bus Travel, recently celebrated his 80th birthday. He is thought to be the last surviving member of the six-man tyre crew who worked with Englishborn Campbell on the record attempts. Ted remembers those days back in 1963 like it was yesterday and has some marvellous photographs, souvenirs and signed memorabilia as lasting keepsakes for his family and future generations. Renmark born and edu-
cated, Ted had left school to join the local Dunlop tyre firm as a tyre fitter and had worked his way up to the position of service manager when he got that phone call.
Ted was also responsible for the surface testing of the 17-mile (25 kilometre) track in the much smaller but highspeed single-seater Elphin. This apparently was Camp-
Ted recalled that Campbell was making up to four runs a day in the huge Bluebird. He admitted to some surprise at the huge team that Campbell and his backers had assembled for the record attempt. Ted, another Dunlop Australia representative and four co-workers were responsible for looking after Bluebird’s huge tyres which were transported on site in four sets of eight. They were so big they had to be lifted on and off the vehicles with a block and tackle.
bell’s own vehicle and is said to have remained in Australia as part of a private collection. “Part of the job was to use the Elphin to test the adhesion of the hard salt surface of Lake Eyre and make a prediction regarding stopping distances after Bluebird started braking,” Ted said. “The Elphin tyres didn’t have any tread and I remember also that it was the first time that tubeless tyres had been used in such circumstances.”
■ YOUNG: Ted Townsend in Donald Campbell’s Elfin single seater brake test car.
The record attempt took place in Madigan Gulf on Lake Eyre North, from a point known as Kunoth Shoal, extending almost true north towards a small land mass known as Brooks Island. Campbell had plenty of room as Lake Eyre covered 1170 square kilometres. That was a big attraction for the high-speed runs, as was the fact that the salt surface was rock-hard, with no decent rain having fallen for more than two decades. Campbell, his mechanics, the tyre fitters, engineers, record-keepers, timers, support crew and a large media contingent made the closest station, Muloorina, their base for both attempts, in 1963 and 1964. Ted said there was a good reason why the 1963 attempt was aborted, ever so close to the day when Campbell was due for his final run. “It didn’t just rain...it bucketed down,” Ted said. “We’d had some drizzle in the days leading up to the storm but that was merely an inconvenience. “The big lightning storm dropped 50 millimetres of rain across the surface of Lake Eyre.” Up to then, Ted said the team was right on track. A 50-metre wide track stretching for 25 kilometres had been graded (using

Ted recalled that Campbell was making up to four runs a day in the huge Bluebird, which was powered by a Bristol Sidderley Proteus gas turbine with drive to all four wheels and which produced 4250 horsepower for Bluebird’s 2440lb weight. Campbell was linked to

Campbell’s legacy lives on
â– HISTORY: Ted Townsend leaning on the bonnet of the Bluebird.
the base station at the start of the track by UHF radio, with an aerial mounted on one of the rear fins. Ted said Campbell was concerned that he was losing contact with his crew halfway down the track. So Ted came up with the simple idea of moving the base station to the half-way point but when he put it to the crew chief, he was told bluntly, “no, the skipper doesn’t want it that way�. Ted and his mate continued playing their role with the tyres and everything was going according to plan, until the big storm hit. It was mid-evening and Ted and his fellow tyre-fitter were back at Muloorina, getting ready for dinner. Back on Lake Eyre, the final speed runs had been abandoned and the place was a hive of activity as every available man was called in to save Bluebird and the other vehicles from being washed away. Finally, everything was loaded onto the trucks, which began the 40-kilometre trek back to the station. The only items that remained were the yellow
marking flags and poles, embedded into the thick salt, and Ted and his mate volunteered to take a jeep out for a recovery attempt. They grabbed a chicken and some bread off the chef, and headed back to the Lake. By this stage they were driving in about 70 millimetres of water and Ted admits to being more than a trifle nervous. He made the decision to drive to the end of the line, 25 kilometres away and started collecting from the other end. There was two reasons for this with the first being so they could find their way back to the start and the second being so they would finish with the heaviest weight. Everything went according to plan and the pair even had time to stop the car for 15 minutes while they had their tea in complete darkness and surrounded by a sea of water. Ted remembers he and his mate getting a warm welcome when they got back. The flags were apparently a costly item but Campbell remained his usual aloof self. Ted stayed on for a few
days helping the team pack up the Bluebird and most of the equipment was stored at Muloorina in readiness for the return trip but Ted did not get an invitation to be part of the successful 1964 action. He knows all about it though, recalling that Lake Eyre was still a bit damp from the previous year and Campbell made numerous runs before just edging to a new world record of 403.10 miles per hour (648.73 kilometres per hour). In the latter stages of the measured mile, the Bluebird crept past 710 kilometres per hour. Ted spent another few years with Dunlop, leaving in 1966 to work at a general store and post office before taking over the local school bus run in 1974, starting with a fleet of seven buses and building up to 18 by 2000. By this time, Ted’s son Tony had joined the business and at 46 is still at the helm today but now operating a fleet of 30 school buses and luxury coaches that travel all over Australia, even to Marree, the closest town to where his father helped Bluebird to that record almost 50 years ago.
Riverland homeless support program wins national award AN INNOVATIVE homelessness support program that is reducing the number of people living rough across Berri and finding them accommodation has been recognised at the inaugural National Homelessness Services Achievement Awards. Life Without Barriers’ Assertive Outreach Program involves a specialist team of case managers and support workers who actively search the riverbanks and known
hotspot areas by car, boat and foot to identify and support those who are homeless. Life Without Barriers South Australia area operations manager Cindy Turners said winning the award is testament to the tireless work of the program’s homelessness team. “Every day the Assertive Outreach team are seeking out those sleeping rough,� she said. “Their hard work and unique approach has meant
that in the past 12 months the program has actively located and supported into housing over 100 people who have been sleeping along the riverbanks. “In 2008, one in every 105 Australians was homeless. “The Assertive Outreach Program is the first step in reducing these statistics as our team makes contact with rough sleepers and provides them with better access to receive support.�

BRITISH-born Donald Campbell followed in his father’s footsteps, breaking eight world speed records in the 1950s and 1960s and remains the only person to set both world land and water speed records in the same year. He was 45 years of age when he died in a high speed crash at Coniston Water, Lancashire, England, during yet another world water record speed attempt. Donald’s father Malcolm was the holder of 13 world speed records in the 1920s and 30s. Donald began his plans for a new land speed record in 1956, starting out on the Bonneville salt flats in Utah, USA. By 1962 he set his sights on the record in a Commonwealth country, not the USA, and it was at this time he choose Lake Eyre for the assault on a world record. Successful at his second attempt, Campbell turned his attention to the water speed record, which he achieved at Lake Dumbleyung near Perth, on the last day of 1964, giving him the two records in the same year. The new water speed record was 276.33 mph (444.71 kmh). During his time, Donald also attempted to break a speed record on Lake Bonney, Barmera. The famous Bluebird car is now on display at the National Motor Museum in Hampshire, England. On January 4, 1967, Campbell had completed one high speed run at Coniston Water in the UK and turned for a return run without refuelling. Experts later said the lighter craft was virtually the difference between life and death, with the boat flipping as it reached 510kph and disintegrating on impact. Campbell is believed to have died instantly.

Beer claims international medal THE Riverland’s very own brewery continues to impress at major award events with the Wilkadene based business awarded a silver medal at the Australian International Beer Awards in Melbourne this month. The Woolshed Brewery’s newest drop, Judas the Dark, received the honour and was rated highly by interstate and international judges and tasters. After winning a bronze medal at the same event with Amazon Ale in 2010, the Woolshed Brewery’s Sarah Dowdell said the medal is a huge thrill for the team at Wilkadene, especially for new brewer Jack Beavis. “It’s fantastic recognition for us and our brand and also for our friends at Australian Native Bushfoods, who supply the wattleseed which makes this beer so special,� she said. “Furthermore it enhances the reputation of our region for producing quality products. “We are already receiving many emails from all over the country, so it’s a great feeling to be able to say ‘come to the Riverland and try it on tap at the Renmark Hotel’.

SA COUNTRY MUSIC FESTIVAL
Entertainment galore at Country music festival Cobdogla STATION
THE 2012 SA Country Music Festival and Awards is expected to provide plenty of entertainment in its 34th year. The festival commences tomorrow with thousands of people expected to travel from far and wide to attend the popular event. Some of Australia’s finest country musicians will provide plenty of entertainment this year. The festival kicks off at the Cobdogla & District Club at 10am tomorrow with performances at the Cobdogla Station Carvan Park, The Pitstop Express, Berri Club, Barmera RSL, Barmera Bowling Club, the Barmera Hotel, Barmera-Monash Football Club, Lake Bonney Holiday Park, Barmera Primary School, Hall of Fame, Berri Caravan Park, Loxton Uniting Church Hall, the Loxton Historical Village and the Renmark Hotel during the
event. It all wraps up at the Berri Club on June 11 at 7.30pm. Among the best features the country music festival has to offer are bush ballads, line dancing, campfire singalongs, bush poets, plus plenty of sideshows and stalls. South Australian Country Music Festival & Awards organiser Dot McDonnell said with plenty of tourists attending, the event should be a major boost for the local economy. “As far as we know, all the accommodation is pretty booked out,” Mrs McDonnell said. “We’ve had calls from all states, New South Wales and Victoria and people from way up in Bribie Island and way over in Western Australia. “Those that come from other states are really impressed with our Riverland, the ones that

■ GOOD TIMES: Some of the performers who will take part in the 2012 South Australian Country Music Festival & Awards which commences tomorrow. Photo: BRAD PERRY are returning think that it’s a really great place to visit.” There are many renowned artists taking part in the festival this year, with the most wellknown being balladeer Tom Maxwell, the multitalented Laura Downing and singer-songwriter
Brian Letton. Locals Georgette Berry and Andrew Kemp will also perform. Mrs McDonnell said artists embrace the friendly atmosphere. “They love the Riverland itself and the river but they find Riverland people are very friendly,”
she said. “The main artists that come over say ‘it’s just like a holiday, everyone’s so nice and friendly’.” The official festival opening will take place at the Hall fo Fame on Saturday, ahead of Hands of Fame and other induction ceremonies.
There’s much more than music at popular festival FOR the many artists who travel to the Riverland for the South Australian Country Music Festival & Awards, the event is about so much more than playing music. The event has been a love affair for Bendigo’s Olive Bice, who has been involved for more than 25 years. She has the privilege of judging some of the major award categories and meeting the top performers but for Olive, it’s about socialising with a group of like minded musicians. “I always look forward to seeing all of our friends and…also all the other performers I’ve known over the years,” she said. Crystal Brook’s Mick Gardiner (pictured) could almost be referred to as a veteran of the event, attending since 1994. “It’s good company and I really enjoy the country music, I love it,” he said. “It’s a happy family, I know everybody who comes here (to the Cobdogla Station Caravan Park).” So much so that Mick’s dog Crystal has become an unofficial mascot of the festival, attending her 10th Riverland festival this year. Each year the country music festival attracts duos from across

Free E
Australia and amongst those will be The Dakotas, Ian and Doreen Cowan from Brisbane. The pair are attending the event as a stop over in their trip around Australia. “We were staying with some friends in Ballarat and they told us about it and we thought ‘why not’ because we’ve been in country music for quite a few years,” Doreen said. Another couple, Jeanne and Len Connor have travelled from over the border for the event but they are all too familiar with the Riverland. “We came over for a weekend nine years ago and we’ve been coming ever since,” Len said. “We enjoy it and here in the park we are just one little family. “We have a lot of fun and meet up with people,” Jeanne added.

Powerful drumming, beautiful melodies

COMBINING the commanding sounds of the Japanese taiko drums, delicate flutes and graceful movement upon the stage, TaikOz tells a story through its performance. Since the group’s inception in 1997, members of TaikOz have created over 25 original works for wadaiko, often featuring instruments such as shakuhachi, shinobue, nôkan, voice, percussion, marimba, saxophone, guitar and didgeridoo. TaikOz artistic director Ian Cleworth said the performance is certainly unique with the piece Shifting Sand inspired by the ocean. “The piece is composed by one

“While there’s plenty of exciting, powerful drumming, there’s also beautiful moments of quiet introspection and beautiful melodies played by the flute and sung by the singers.” Touring across Australia and all over the world, TaikOz is described as a journey for those who are lucky enough to experience the performance. “Because the Shifting Sands piece has so many shifts of mood and character, the audience members are taken on a journey,” Ian said. TaikOz will be performing at the Chaffey Theatre, Renmark, on Tuesday at 8pm.

claw foot bath. The formal dining room has an open fireplace and the light and bright meals/family room has large glass doors opening onto the garden. An excellent shed plus a carport offer room for all the cars and toys and there is also a detached room which could be converted to a teenager’s retreat. The majority of the property is fenced with secure gates to give a large and safe area for children and pets, while persimmon trees give a sideline income. The opportunity to purchase a home such as this is very rare in our area and who knows when the next home of this calibre will become available? Make sure that you do not waste this occasion!

Home on half an acre with water views S
ITUATED on approximately half an acre of land, this home is elevated and set back from the road allowing you to take advantage of the water views right from your front door. The home is very neat and tidy and the gardens are low maintenance. You have the advantage of road frontage but the home is set back so you can still have that quiet, peaceful setting. The home includes two bedrooms both with built-in robes, bunk beds to bedroom one, lounge, dining, kitchen with gas stove and a combined laundry, toilet and bathroom. Two airconditioners provide climate control. The 12m x 6m Colorbond shed has two sliding doors, concrete floor,
power and a pit. The property also has solar panels and you can run rainwater to the whole house (with the option of switching back to mains if required). The property offers so many options including using it as a holiday retreat, investment property, to live-in or transport the home and build (STCC).

we mentioned that ‘Super Looper’s’ main opposition in the race was ‘My Little Star’ with nine wins on end but that in the semi finals the Price dog had travelled the distance in a time equivalent to some three metres quicker than his rival. “Would you believe it?� Linton said. “‘My Little Star’missed the jump and was last going into the first turn and although it worked its way through the field to win by a couple of lengths, it’s time was 30.51 seconds. “When you look at ‘Super Looper’s’ 29.73 seconds in the semi-final he would have been a real chance in the race.� Nicole is working desperately on ‘Super Looper’s’ injury and he is apparently well on the way to recovery, hopefully to be ready for the heats of the Gawler Breeders event on Tuesday, June 5. The final will be held on the following Tuesday and perhaps Nicole is due for a change of luck and will have ‘Super Looper’ lining up that day, this time to chase a healthy lure.

With seven events completed, runners for the Breeders Cup final were into their customary preview where they are ready to race but standing trackside to watch the lure do an enticing dummy run. But the bunny did not make it, halfway through its journey it broke down and after unsuccessful attempts to carry out repairs, the rest of the program was abandoned with the cup final rescheduled for the following Thursday. Nicole returned to Renmark with ‘Super Looper’ but as he would require a run before another date with Angle Park, she went to Gawler next day for a trial. “’Super Looper’ flew in the trial and appeared to pull up in top condition,� Linton said. All then looked cherry ripe for the return to Adelaide but a couple of days before the race ‘Super Looper’ showed signs of a limp and eventually went lame. “We could not risk him,� Linton said. “Nicole had no choice but to scratch him.� In our previous article

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND SEVEN THE OTHER GAMES
MATCH OF THE ROUND
Wunkar v MoorookKingston WUNKAR and Moorook-Kingston are both desperate for a win sitting on the bottom half of the ladder. The Warriors were given a football lesson at the hands of Blanchetown/Swan Reach last round, while Wunkar was more than competitive against last year’s premier Lyrup. Both teams also appear to be struggling to fill senior numbers with colts taking up positions on the bench. Loxton North A grade premiership player Jordan Hentschke has been a stand-out player for the Bulldogs, playing hard football week in, week out. Wunkar coach Lincoln Evans said Hentschke has been a welcome
inclusion. “I don’t think he wanted to be over committed to A grade footy this year, he just wanted to play with his mates,� Evans said. With Warrior tagger Todd Griffin still out injured, Kenny Wright may run with Hentschke. Rhys Heinrich, Ian Worsfold and Harley Bennell are all young guns who have played enough games to provide vital experience to the team. Daniel Evans, who is reportedly playing at 60 per cent fitness, has been a leader for the team in tough times. Former Paringa player Blair Dillon has been consistent for the Warriors, along with Matt Raison and Brett Smith in defence. Lincoln Evans said he is hopeful of getting a full team on the oval. “We are still fielding a side but we have to play a couple of colts,� he said.
“We play the higher teams and do really well and then against the lower teams we lower ourselves to their level.� Moorook-Kingston coach Cecil Rigney said he is hoping Mick Svendsen returns, along with Russell and Ashley Boatswain. “We’ve been let down by a few players who weren’t rocking up when they were picked so they won’t be playing,� he said. “Overall, the guys were hard at it, there were guys running around out there with injuries, there were first gamers and the endeavour was there but unfortunately blokes who were picked that didn’t rock up let those guys down.� Rigney said he is confident the team can beat Wunkar and Lyrup the following round. Wunkar is continuing to build and we predict an upset here.
Zadow and Scott Young may be inclusions to the team. Dale Payne is continuing to make his mark as the premier midfielder in the competition, booting seven goals last week. Followed closely behind is the consistent Troy Cowland. Max Martinson has also been dangerous up forward. For the Tigers, ruckman Chris Rudiger is an early Duthie Medal favourite, while Ash Hissey has also
been solid. Young is expected to do the ruckwork for BSR against Zak Schubert, while Kyle Coleman or Michael Zadow will watch young gun Brok Schubert. BSR coach Peter Zadow said he is happy with the way his team continues to work together. “I thought the lads are playing pretty good run out footy,� he said. The Redbacks should win by at least six goals.
THE OTHER GAMES
BSR v East Murray STILL tackling injury concerns to several players, East Murray will need to be at the top of its game to compete with Blanchetown/Swan Reach. The Redbacks will be full of confidence after they smashed MoorookKingston by 174 points last round. Christopher Giles will be missing for the Redbacks, while Michael

However, the Magpie midfield provides plenty of goal options with Corey Knight, Zakk Bullard and Ben Quinn all capable around the goals.

jor test for both teams. Lameroo has welcomed the return of Vaughan Noonan, who was best on ground last round and playing coach Shaun Walker is regaining his fitness after injury. For Karoonda, losing league leading goal kicker Luke Hocking through injury is a big blow and he will miss at least this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s match. Billy McNeilly or David Philbey have been great in the back half for the
Lameroo by two points last round. The Saints will be licking their wounds after being punished by BDT to the tune of 165 points. The loss was not a surprise with Peake missing nine players from its A grade team. With Patrick Casey out, Peake needs someone to step up in the midfield. Scott Feltus has been a strong target up forward each week.
Up forward for Murrayville, Daniel Fry has been on fire and he could be shut down by Rick Berling. The return of Trent Sporn has been important for Murrayville. Todd Jones has been good in the ruck and Jesse Vass is finding form. Murrayville has the momentum going into this match and should strike just as Peake tries to rebuild a team missing several important players.
they go against the Crows, who are in top form. Pinnaroo will unfortunately be without Thomas Keogh this weekend, who returned from West Adelaide to play during the bye. Last round the team was missing Ryan Nickolls, Anthony Lippis, Braden Thomas, Alex Keogh, Jason Marr and Scott Kirkbright. Sunyl Vogt has had a horrid run with injuries,
hurting his knee on the weekend. Heath Nickolls has been good in defence and he may match up on Ty McKenna. BDTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defence has been superb with the likes of Chris Gregory and Lee Slape preventing any attacking moves. The Crows should beat Pinnaroo by more than 10 goals after a competitive opening quarter.

A WINLESS Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well travels to Ramco in a bid to notch up a victory. However, the Roosters have earnt third position on the ladder and will be looking to gain consecutive victories. It could be a tale of the big men in this game with Jeremy Jaeger and Jamie Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Callaghan against Matt and Brian Hampel. In the midfield, Marcus McGrath could match-up on either Jock McNeil or Andrew Schultz. The Bombers will be looking to Geordie Franks early after he booted six goals in the first quarter last round. Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well coach Lance Degenhardt said the team is still not at full strength. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You look at the scoring shots, we had 34 to 30 (against Cobdogla),â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very credible performance by a side that barely had 22 players out there.â&#x20AC;?

A HARD fought win over Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Well last round gives Cobdogla plenty of confidence going into the match against unbeaten Paringa. Darrell Tilbrook returned to form with eight goals and will receive close attention from Paringa defenders. Zac Walker has also been good and he may run with Andrew Lloyd in the middle. Cobdogla will be without Anthony Thompson, while Paringa also has several injuries. Paringa coach Arrod Westley said the team has fresh legs after the bye, despite injuries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lot of injuries at the moment,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you can stop that midfield from getting the ball down there to him (Tilbrook), we should be able to nullify him pretty easily that way.â&#x20AC;?

? Did you know..?
Waikerie v Loxton North TO say Loxton North needs to win against Waikerie would be an understatement. Despite just one win, the Panthers are clinging onto fourth position but need a win to remain contenders. Waikerie has been inconsistent so far this season but with Damian Stevens back on board, the Magpies are starting to find form. This match is third versus fourth but there are two wins difference between the teams. The Panthers face an uphill battle travelling to Waikerie, where a win is a rarity. Tim Arnold was concussed last round against Barmera-Monash but we expect him to play. The Panthers are also hopeful that leading midfielder Daniel Proud will return. For Waikerie, Andrew Bachmann pulled up sore against Loxton and he will need to pass a fitness test to play. Stevens and Proud could match-up. Ben Venning has been a key player and Anton Cook or Josh Voigt are likely to stand him. The Panthers lack a strong forward line with reliance on goals from Justin Proud, Brogan Whitelaw and Ben Walter.
,/
Glenn Schrieber and Tim Bevan have both been lively up forward for the Magpies and Ryan Gray and Michael Scott would ideally stop their influence on the match for Loxton North. Michael Bratton and Jamie Ferguson will also have an equal battle around the football. Waikerie co-coach Craig Griffiths said the midfield worked overtime against Loxton on the weekend, with great results. “It was good to have our onballers give us first opportunity, they had a lot of clearances and we went inside 50 a lot more than they did,” he said. With lots of injuries early on in the season, Griffiths said the team is now climbing the ladder. “At the moment we’re three and two leading into the bye, so we’re super keen to make it four and two and that’s a pretty good position for where we’ve been at,” he said. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said the goal is to win three out of the next five games. “We’ve been pretty close in a number of games this year so it’s a matter of finishing off the better work,” he said. “Waikerie’s in form, it’s going to be a tough ask. We’ll go down there and try to be competitive.” The Magpies are in form and will shrug off the Panthers to win.

Bombers make official complaint over head count
RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE - ROUND SIX MATCH OF THE ROUND
LIFE FM 100.7 broadcast
Loxton v Berri
LOXTON is just one win away from jumping into fourth position. Standing in its way is the inform team of the competition in Berri. The Demons have been more than impressive led by Jamie Milburn and David Hankin. Leigh Kruger is finding form and will be closely watched by Kirk Harwood or Mitch Blackie. Depending on where Jamahl Liddle lines up, he could find himself followed by Sam Hirschi. Berri has ball winners all over the ground and the Tigers cannot match-up to the talent. Brock Birkin and Nick Uren could get jobs on Ryan Porter and Adam Beauchamp. Loxton coach Mick Zerna said the team needs to play four quarters of football. “After half-time, we were good last week but we were absolutely deplorable in the first half,” he said. “After half-time, we were a bit more man-on-man and were more accountable.” The young Loxton team will be competitive but Berri is on the march, winning by 10 goals plus.
RIVERLAND Football League umpires co-ordinator Father Steve Ardill has received an official complaint from Brown’s Well over claims Cobdogla had 20 players on the field on the weekend. In a letter written to the RFL, the Bombers claim a request for a head count by the captain was refused by the umpire after the Eagles allegedly had two extra players on the field at one stage. However, Fr Ardill said that after speaking with both field umpires, it was not the Brown’s Well captain who called for a head count. “The umpire who was in control of the play at the time, who the request was made to, he indicated to me very definitely that it wasn’t the captain who made the request, it was another Brown’s Well player,” he said. “He indicated to me, when this particular player had made
the request for the count, he told the player the request needs to come from the captain and the player indicated the captain was down the other end of the ground and wouldn’t have actually observed that there was an extra player on the ground.” However, Brown’s Well coach Lance Degenhardt said the situation must be looked into. “I didn’t see the incident but if the umpires didn’t take notice of the call by the captain, then it needs investigating,” he said. Fr Ardill said there are penalties if a team is found to have more than 18 players on the field at one time. “There’s a free kick and a 50-metre penalty and they actually lose their score,” he said. “It’s a serious breach but in this instance, the umpires are very clear that it wasn’t the actual Brown’s Well captain who made the request.”

THE OTHER GAMES
Renmark v BarmeraMonash THE last time these two teams met, Renmark went down by 119 points. This time around, the Rovers are hoping to put on a better performance against premiership favourite Barmera-Monash. Renmark will be without Russell Menz but the team is hopeful of Reece Glazbrook returning. For the Roos, Reece Hogan has injured his knee and will be out indefinitely, while Robert Price is still sidelined and Chris Bonney returns to West Adelaide. Corey Hanna is a possible inclusion. Steven Pitt will be hop-
ing to feature more heavily on the scoreboard after being held goalless against Berri. However, it doesn’t get much easier for him with Danny Millard likely to limit his marking ability. Barmera-Monash has been on fire with the likes of Jake Smith, Michael Smart, Tyler Baldock and Sam Elliott all playing well. It is hard to find a weakness in the Roos’ line-up. Renmark has been well served by Josh Warnock and Trevor Thorpe. Warnock may run with Elliott, while Aaron Camplin may match up on Baldock. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said there is much improvement to be made. “Coming off a 100-odd point (loss) last time we played them, there’s a lot we
have to work on,” he said. “Our average age is the concern. “Three or four years ago, a list like we’ve got now would be really good but now, a lot of the sides have got so many young ones and lighter bodies, we don’t really match up well.” Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said he will not take Renmark lightly. “All the boys really stepped up for the Siemers family (last week), that was a huge impact on the club and the boys responded and that’s why we went out and actually blitzed Loxton North,” he said. “We’re not going to take Renmark lightly, they’ll be out for some revenge.” We expect the Roos to win convincingly.

RFL B GRADE WAIKERIE is the early favourite for the B grade flag but will be tested this weekend against Loxton North. The Panthers have shown big improvements this season through defender Michael Trezise and veteran Brett Stephens. However, the Magpies have too many good players with Steve Hefford boot-
ing six goals last round and defender Michael Beelitz in good form. The Magpies should win by eight goals in this clash. Barmera-Monash made a surprisingly goalless start against the Panthers last round before dominating the rest of the match. The Roos, boasting the likes of George Vlassopoulos, on the verge of an A
grade call up, will easily defeat struggling Renmark, despite Jayden Perry in good touch. Loxton has a chance to push towards a top three spot against winless Berri. Brett Manuel and Bryce Freundt were good last round, while Berri continues to work hard through Scott Muller and Derek Griffiths.

Stevens back in action for Waikerie IT has been a tough 12 months for Waikerie midfielder Damian Stevens but he is hopeful of building on a promising return performance last week. After a lengthy stint on the sidelines last season through injury, Stevens returned for round one against
Loxton North this year, only to injure his hamstring. The midfield dynamo admits he feels like a new recruit after helping the Magpies to a thumping 102-point win at Loxton on the weekend. This time, Stevens came from the ground unscathed, playing a part in the win,
booting four goals and being his team’s second best player. “I was sort of expecting to be a little bit rusty early but managed to get a couple goals and got to spend some time in the middle which I wasn’t expecting to do early either,” he said.

Lucky Seltitzas was also re-elected with other new appointments being Barmera’s Tony Szabo and Loxton’s Des Schliebs. The matter of the size of teams in first division came up for discussion as part of the agenda and I understand a special general meeting is to be held to decide on the issue. I also understand that it was decided at the AGM that all clubs will be eligible to vote on the matter of any pennant formats.

Clay target shooters prepare for long weekend event ■ SUNDAY’S 75 clay target shoot at the Renmark-Berri Field and Game Club was an ideal preparation for the three day, 225 target event to be held at the range on the Queen’s Birthday long weekend. Winners on Sunday were all from the home club with Haydn Brown taking out A grade with a score of 63/75 ahead of Glossop’s Colin Nunn (62/75), Paul Hansen (54/75) won the B grade from Renmark’s John Redway (51/75), Sheryl Beer (52/75) won C grade from a new shooter in Renmark’s Tim Ewens (36/75) and Kailan Markham (56/75) claimed juniors from Renmark’s Mat Redway (50/75).
■ THE last time this column reported on the motorsport career of Loxton’s Keke Falland it concluded that from dirt karts, moving to Queensland to complete a special course, returning to SA and graduating from Wingless Sprints to 360 Sprints, an ambition remained strong. He is dedicated and determined to go as far as he is able to in the sport that he has been passionate about for much of his 24 years. And the doors are continuing to open. At the recent 360 Sprint Cars of SA presentation function held at the Adelaide Convention Centre, Keke cleaned up in the awards after completing his first season in the class. His awards included Rookie of the Year, Most Improved and to add to that he was the leading points scorer overall for meetings held across the state. In points for meetings held at Adelaide’s Speedway City, he finished fifth, despite missing two occasions as he attended other commitments, perhaps costing him a win there as well. All of this represents a magnificent debut season for Keke and his supportive parents and crew but it has not gone unnoticed from afar. Keke will leave for the United States of America on June 11 to take up a position as crew member with leading American 360 and 410 sprint car driver Brian Brown.

The hockey wrap
■ QUICK: Renmark Olympic striker Peter Athanassiou dribbles the ball in his team’s 3-1 loss to Barmera Dev Estate. ■ LOCAL soccer on Sunday will be held at Berri with the rampant Berri River Rangers playing Renmark Olympic and Barmera Dev Estate up against Loxton United in the men’s A grade competition. It will take a massive turn around in form for pre-season champion Renmark to get even close to River Rangers, who last week turned on a clinic against Loxton, winning 14-1, with four goals apiece to Chris Miller and Adam Vallelonga and Marcus Drogemuller and Dale Harwood in superb touch. Olympic on the other hand went down to Barmera 3-1 and it will need to find more support for players like Peter Athanassiou and Asif Hussiani who worked hard in that game. Barmera, with Andrew Brookes and Jim Fournaros in consistent
He will be involved in 45 events in 78 days with a concentration on the famed Knoxville Nationals. Brown has qualified for the event on three occasions previously and is anxious to build on the 97 victories to his credit in 360 and 410 sprint cars. It seems Keke is to link-up with an American ace determined to recover ground after winning only seven events in 2011, following 14 wins in 2010. Keke accepts this trip will be no holiday. As his American boss says, “we’re focusing on every part, every component, each person who works on the car and me, the driver, to get a little better”. “I’m definitely not happy with seven wins and the 2012 season can’t start quick enough.” Thoughts I feel sure Keke is enthused about.
form, should be too good for Loxton although under bombardment from Berri, Pat Perre, Nathan Hentshke and goal kicker Geordie Franks showed glimpses of better things. Exciting matches in other grades included a 1-1 draw in B grade between Barmera and Berri and in under 12s, Berri defeated Renmark 4-3 with stars in the game including Dimitri Kondoprias, Vincent Vu and Simon Crouch. There will be a bye next weekend when Riverland will be represented from under 13 to under 16s, at the State Junior Championships in Adelaide. The local girls under 13 and 16 teams will also compete. Looking further ahead a new tri-state challenge involving Riverland, Sunraysia and Broken Hill will be played at Mildura on Sunday, July 22.
■ ALL of this weekend’s hockey action is at Glassey Park with a lot of interest, in particular, in tomorrow night’s A grade clashes between Loxton and Waikerie. Both of the women’s teams had impressive victories in the last round with Loxton having to dig deep to withstand a challenge from rival Renmark 2-1 and Waikerie also having to work hard to break away from a 0-0 deadlock at half time to defeat Berri 5-0. Reigning premier Loxton certainly boasts tremendous depth and in the tight tussle with Renmark, had players like Gillian Bartsch, Suzie Stivahtaris and Sarah Pickering forcing their way into best player rankings. Loxton should win but an impressive group from the Waikerie game against Berri, including Carlye Waye, Zoe Liebich, Ashley Baker and Kristen Pick point to an entertaining contest. Renmark also had a long list of contributors despite losing against Loxton with Lauren Scott, Danielle Weeks, Toni Casey, Alison Giles, Juliett Mallinson and Megan Taylor all prominent and it should win its clash against Berri on Saturday. However, there was a lot to like about Berri’s effort as well against Waikerie, particularly in the first half. Emma Burge, Jane Hustler, Emma Goold, Kira McMahon, Ada Walladge and Kristen Hibberd give the club a good mixture of youth and experience to work with.
The Loxton and Waikerie men’s game on Friday night could well be influenced by who takes the field as both clubs have players involved with Adelaide clubs. Loxton also displayed depth last outing in defeating Renmark 5-2 with experienced trio Karl Hennig, Tim Vivian and Tim Cass continuing to stress their importance to the side. Waikerie on the other hand had a week off last round, receiving a forfeit from Berri but up until now, names like Shaun Pick, Rowan Hope, Mark and Brenton Kroehn, Jason Redemski and Caleb Catford have been prominent. Saturday’s Renmark against Berri clash will see Renmark go in as solid favourites on the strength of the form of Brett Stokes in a match-up against Loxton star Sean Burgess in the last outing and developing team play involving the likes of Aden Shaw, Callum Benda, Danial Shawyer, Lincoln Matulin, Shaun Crouch and Ben Cutts. The positive report on Berri after its shortage of players last week is that they will return this week albeit apparently without key player Heath Pillen, who is reportedly overseas. This Berri men’s team is primarily made up of players from the club’s junior ranks but as one experienced follower of the game said this week, “they may be young but they have been competitive, they have showed they can score against some of the top sides”.
Centre court ■ THE last round of A1 netball matches were the closest of the 2012 season so far but the competition is perhaps crying out for a surprise result. That then puts real focus on the Loxton versus Berri game tomorrow night before there is a week’s break while our representative teams are in Adelaide for the annual Country Carnival. Loxton had a bye last Friday night but had been less than impressive the previous week against table leader Renmark. On the other hand, Berri is coming off another promising performance in going down to Renmark by only eight goals, 49-41, with consistent trio Tegan Moldovan, Ellee Eleftheriadis and Nicole Hall setting the example. Loxton will need more support for its regular trendsetters Jackie Dahlitz, Alysha Pontt and Lyn Sweeney to withstand a genuine challenge from the young Berri unit. In the other game Renmark, with Hannah Foody and Denika Gartery continuing their great run of form against Berri, appear to have too much depth for Barmera. However, Barmera would have gained a lot of confidence from its first victory of the season last week, winning 58-53 over Loxton North. With players like Mackella Armfield, Meg Gillespie,
Cobie Drogemuller and Leah Williams in recent good form, the lakeside club is developing a formidable list. With Loxton North having this week’s bye, it will mean it will not play again until Friday, June 15, when it clashes with neighbour Loxton. The long break is unfortunate as, boosted by the elevation of experienced campaigner Kylie Wooldridge, the young North line-up was impressive against Barmera and in Tara Learhinan, Marlee George and company, they are also developing a unit that may shortly be putting more pressure on some of the top teams. In Independent A grade netball last Saturday, East Murray defeated Ramco 40 to 21 and BSR was too good for Moorook Kingston 62 to 29. Best players for East Murray were Katelyn Boughen and Danielle Stasinowsky and for Ramco Jacqui Wood and Karen Linke were good. In the other game, Ashleigh Stapleton and Jo Schmidt were best for BSR and for Moorook-Kingston, Veronica Migga and Stacie Sander played well. In B grade, East Murray (Caroly Winen, Marissa Redden) accounted for Ramco (Lisa Norman, Jessica Trebilcock) 33-21 and Brown’s Well (Alison Schultz, Clair Victor) won 60-12 against Cobdogla (Chantelle Sharkey, Makayla Wellington).

McCarthy wins tour

■ ROBERT-JON McCarthy from the Sturt Holdfast Marion Cycling Club became the first under 19 rider to complete the race win and fastest time double in the 38th annual Tour of the Riverland Handicap race last Saturday. On Sunday, the-18-yearold (who also set fastest time in the senior event in 2011) repeated the double in the 40 kilometre handicap event and as a result of his successful weekend, pocketed over $11,000 in prize money. Second to McCarthy in the Tour on Saturday by a couple
of bike lengths was 49-year-old Norwood rider Pat Marcuccu, one of the legends of the Riverland Cycling Weekend, who won the race in 1990 and recorded the fastest time in 1987, 1990 and 1991. Marcucci threatened to create a boilover in a classic move in the dash to the line and former Riverland champion and current Norwood rider Hamish MacKirdy, who ended up sixth, was one of those adamant that his getting in behind the former winner was the key to a prominent finishing position.

Hill to row overseas ■ FORMER Loxton resident Alexander Hill continues to emerge as one of Australia’s leading rowing prospects. Alex, a member of the Adelaide Rowing Club, really hit the headlines in 2011 when he was a member of a number of teams that took out major events, including joining with clubmate Nathan Bowden to win the under 19 Men’s Coxless Pairs title at the Australian Championships held at West Lakes. He also combined with Louis Snelson, Aaron Wright, and Philip Adams (NSW) and cox Stuart Sim (Victoria) to claim the Junior Men’s Coxed Fours gold medal at the World Junior Championships that was an official test event of the 2012 Olym-
pic venue at Eton Dorney, England. While talking Olympics, I understand Alex has been given the experience of training with the Australian squad that is bound for England. However, he will also be heading for England prior to the Olympic Games as a member of the Australian Under 23 team to compete in the best known event of its type in the world, the annual Henley Royal Rowing Regatta on the River Thames at Henley-On-Thames, from June 27 until July 1. Alex is a member of the under 23 Men’s Coxed Eights. From England, the team will then travel to the 2012 World Under 23 Championships in Trakai, Lithuania, from July 11 to 15.
Teams selected ■ THE RIVERLAND will have four netball teams at the Country Carnival with the senior A division team including newcomers in Mackella Armfield (Barmera), Hannah Foody (Renmark) and Lauren Oswald (Waikerie) as well as former junior representatives Lauren Gardner, Kelly Nelson (Renmark) and Lauren Benson (Loxton). The remainder of the squad is Tegan Moldovan (Berri), Reeni Leuders, Anita Modlinski, and Jesse- Lee Jones (Renmark). Injured Renmark player Sonja Modlinski will take over as a first time coach with assistance to come from manager Traci-Lee Jones, while the umpiring will be in the hands of Haylee Symens. The under 17 team is Ilyth Burton, Maddie Cinc, Kiana Menz, Sharnie Twyford (Renmark), Ellee Eleftheriadis, Taylee Howard, Rachel Shotton, Breanna Walden (Berri), Meg Gillespie and Kayla Szabo (Barmera) with coach Denika Gartery. The under 15 team is Jordan Jachmann, Hana Learhinan (Loxton North), Ashlea James, Tylah Cooper, Caitlin Gardner, Sophie Croft, Madison Pitman (Renmark), Laura Trower, Pip Wright (Loxton), Tegan Griffiths (Waikerie) and Bailey Miller (Barmera) with coach Chris Eleftheriadis. Leanne Menz will coach an under 13 side containing Eva Nikou, Emma-May Ellis, Romani Morath, Isabella Zunic, Sophie Agostino, Jess Pater, Jamie Jaensch, Shenae Rucioch (Renmark), Ashlee Reichelt (Loxton) and Annabel O’Dea (Barmera).

feated Berri went down to Renmark 4/1, while in C grade Berri defeated Loxton 3/2. Meanwhile, in domestic competitions at Waikerie this past week, stablefords went to Ron Watkins with 35 points from Derek Greenfield, 34, last Wednesday and to Mal Chidlow, 44, in division one and Graham Walters, 41, in division two on Saturday. At Berri last Wednesday’s stableford was won by Joe Hocevar on 35 points and similar events on Saturday were won by Ray Mitchell, 40 points, ahead of Richard Keightley, 37,
It should be pointed out that the Loxton went into the final without its two leading players Ramon Thorne and Kym Rivett who had commendably committed to being with Mount Lofty for the Adelaide pennant season opening. However, nothing can detract from this drought breaking performance by the Waikerie team. Congratulations to all involved. In B grade, there was an upset result when the previously unde-

Promising rider impresses at recent events ■ STAR: Loxton’s Alisha Rudiger and horse ‘Chalani Ballet’ have been a winning combination at recent events.
■ PROMISING 16-year-old Loxton rider Alisha Rudiger and her black Australian Stock Horse ‘Chalani Ballet’ share a workmanlike manner and continued to make it their trademark in impressive performances at Werribee and Stathalbyn recently. Alisha, still eligible for junior competition, has opted to perform in the more highly ranked young rider division and was the state’s only representative at that level amongst five team members at the National Dressage Junior Nationals at Werribee. Alisha finished in sixth position in Preliminary Horse 1C
and 1D for an overall fifth placing for the championship and eighth in 2C and ninth in 2D for eighth placing in Novice division. Moving straight on to Strathalbyn for the state championships, the young Loxton rider was first in the state in the Young Rider Preliminary 1C and 1D competitions and finished third in Novice 1C and fourth in 1D. With ‘Chalani Ballet’ currently requiring treatment for a minor ailment, Alisha is taking some time out of the saddle but it will be back to work shortly for the spring competitions with a long season to follow.

THE Waikerie Golf Club won its first ever division one men’s pennant on Sunday defeating Loxton 3.5 to 1.5 at Loxton. The competition is believed to have commenced in the late 1920s, so when it comes to discussing premiership droughts, the club has certainly had to wait a long time. The club finished runner-up to Renmark in 2011, so it has now added strength to the thought that ‘sometimes you have to lose one before you win one’. Waikerie`s victories in individual match-ups were clear cut on Sun-

day with Craig Davis defeating Brett Proud 7/6, Doug Johns winning 7/5 against Phillip Proud and Daniel Fechner winning 7/6 over James Searles. Loxton’s Ash Pfeiler defeated Joel Sheehan 8/7, while two real trojans for their respective clubs, Wes Bald (Waikerie) and Peter Harman (Loxton) decided to put their clubs in the holster and call a truce with about five holes remaining in their match to no doubt head to the 19th hole to join their teammates.
