Mine expansion delayed, businesses miss out
Pressure on Riverland fruit fly measures
By BRAD PERRY
PRESSURE is intensifying on the Riverland’s fruit fly prevention measures following reports that the Victorian Department of Primary Industries has dropped its guard on the pest due to costs. The news comes after the loss of Riverina Citrus in New South Wales,
RIVERLAND businesses planning to take advantage of BHP Billiton’s Olympic Dam mine expansion have been dealt a major blow with yesterday’s announcement the company will defer the project. With several local
businesses gearing up to take advantage of the major expansion, Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said the delay will “throw their investments into disarray”. “They’ll have to look further, they’ll have to perhaps look at other smaller mining projects,” Mr Whet-
stone said. “People have done training within the mining industry to go over and be a part of the expansion. “It’s a huge disappointment for the state.

“The bottom line is that it increases the pressure on our state and the prospect that we might cop an outbreak particularly for our industry in the Riverland,” Tri-State Fruit Fly Committee chair Andrew Green said. n Continued Page 4

Barmera event receives $15,000 to help attract visitors to the region EDITORIAL BY
BRAD PERRY
Price rise the answer? I FAIL to see how raising the price of cheap alcohol will stop binge drinking and lower hospital admission and deaths caused by alcohol. What it will do is have a significant impact on the Riverland wine sector which is involved with casks and clean skins. In yesterday’s Advertiser, Australian Hotels Association SA chief executive Ian Horne believes the proposal could potentiallly wipe out the state’s bulk wine producing regions such as the Riverland. Health and consumer groups have backed the plan to raise standard drink prices meaning the cost of a wine cask could potentially quadruple. Is this really the answer to cutting back on the negative impacts of alcohol? The price rise would eliminate cheap wine on the market but in the end, people will find an alternative option. Under the proposal, those of us who drink responsibily are being punished for those who do not and a nice glass of wine will become a luxury. Something that is enjoyed in the beautiful setting that is the Riverland. Any decision to push prices up may prevent people buying cheap wine but will have widespread impacts on producers and their livelihoods. So is that the answer?

Triathlon funding injection A BARMERA triathlon has received $15,000 towards the event’s promotion, media and marketing activities thanks to State Government funding. The South Australian Tourism Commission (SATC) yesterday announced that the Berri Resort Hotel Murray Man Triathlon had secured $15,000 in support through the Regional Events and Festivals Program for 2012/13. Tourism Minister Gail Gago said the funding will help attract tourists to the Riverland. “We have a wonderful range of events and festivals taking place in South Australia each year,” Minister Gago said. “Recipients of funding through this program are either proven tourism drawcards that bring thousands of visitors to our state and boost its profile, or

Opportunity missed on grain competition THE Federal Government has missed out on the perfect opportunity to improve competition in the grains industry for Riverland and Mallee farmers, according to Shadow Agriculture Minister Adrian Pederick. Canadian company Glencore International’s $6 billion acquisition of Viterra was confirmed by the Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) late last month. However, Mr Pederick said the South Australian Parliament Select Committee on the Grain Handling Industry had previously raised concerns about
the lack of competition the takeover will create. “Obviously the monopoly is still the concerning factor and that’s why the grain industry select committee wanted to see at least part of those port facilities broken, so we could have seen direct competition at port,” he said. “We really do need to see a far more transparent process as far as other companies getting access to the up-country system, the supply chain
and also the port. “For Mallee and Riverland growers we are not getting that true port competition. “Having that monopoly access to the port, the operator of the silo system can essentially put their own charges in place for third party access to their facilities. “They can charge differing access fees for grain going into the port and they can certainly charge differing fees at differing sites depending on what they want to charge or what profit they want to make.” Mr Pederick said the Select Committee put forward seven recom-
mendations on behalf of the South Australian Parliament to the FIRB and Australia Competition and Consumer Commission, however the points were not considered or implemented. “There has been no talk of divestment of assets and as a result, South Australian grain producers will continue to be dominated by a monopoly,” he said. “I hope Glencore realises the importance of the grain industry in South Australia and will do the right thing for the farmers of our state by committing to the investment need to continue to improve

One way street plans to include Renmark Avenue IT HAS been revealed that the Renmark Paringa Council’s plans to transform Murray Avenue into a one way shopping and dining precinct include part of Renmark Avenue. The concepts have been designed but are yet to be released to the public. Renmark Paringa Council chief executive officer Tony Siviour said releasing concept plans has been delayed due to an extra addition. “The reason we have held that up a little bit is because we wanted to incorporate the renewal of the toilet block on Renmark Avenue,” Mr Siviour said. “It (the one way concept) will be Murray Avenue as well as incorporating a little bit of Renmark Avenue.” Mr Siviour said there has been positive support for the one way street plans from local businesses. “I think local businesses appreciate that Murray Avenue is a pretty spectacular area for the river and any revitalisation of that would not only be good for Renmark but also the Riverland,” he said.

All events receiving funding through the Regional Events and Festivals Program are also offered in-kind support from the SATC. This includes promotion on southaustralia.com and the inclusion of the event in a range of publications with national and international readerships. Meanwhile, an event celebrating the best in Australian music bringing visitors and tourism dollars to the Murraylands has also shared in the funding. Mannum’s Sounds by the River yesterday also secured support through the Regional Events and Festivals Program for 2012/13 to the tune of $20,000.

Miners to find accommodation ACCOMMODATION outlets in Loxton and the Mallee are likely to be home for Mindarie Mine employees when work begins at the site next month. Murray Zircon will construct a 52 man camp near the Mindarie Mine but it not expected to be ready until the end of November. In the meantime, the company will source temporary accommodation for its workers for up to eight weeks in Loxton, Wanbi and Karoonda. “Temporary accommodation, which will be for the month of October and late September, is going to be sourced out of Loxton and Karoonda,” Murray Zircon spokesperson Steve McEwen said.
“We’ll just have to grab what we can where we can. “What we are looking to do is put some temporary accommodation in at the Karoonda Oval where the Karoonda Fair is held and the guys will use the football club for ablution facilities and then the local pub will provide the meal service.

as well as meeting with the Loxton Waikerie Council, and Mr McEwen said the response was positive. “We did give them a powerpoint presentation and ran through who Murray Zircon is and what they’ve been doing and all the different hurdles they’ve had to jump,” he said. “The purpose was to engage with local suppliers and let them know that we are soon to start our operation again and there are a lot of opportunities available to them and that we are happy to work with them. “The company has nothing to do with the previous operator and we really wanted to disconnect from that perception.”
Celebrating our Meals on Wheels volunteers RENMARK woman Shirley Smith has been volunteering with the local Meals on Wheels for a remarkable 48 years. In fact, she was there when the organisation began in Renmark and has since cooked and delivered countless amounts of meals to those needing them. During National Meals on Wheels Day on Wednesday, volunteers such as Shirley will step into the spotlight as their community contribution is celebrated. “The companionship of all the other people and the fact it keeps people in their homes longer,” Shirley replied when asked why she continues to volunteer. Meals on Wheels Renmark kitchen supervisor Marie Pearce said the local organisation distributes about 50 meals per day with a fleet of close to 200 volunteers. She said the service is vital for the region, not only providing food but checking up on the elderly. “I think it is important to a lot of members in the commu-
nity who can’t manage to cook themselves,” Marie said. “It’s also good to have someone going in to check on them.” Being involved for 29 years has also been a way of helping out in the community for Berri Meals on Wheels welfare officer Marg Potts. “I’ve been very blessed to be able to work with quite a number of people,” she said. “It’s very important to the people that are home and can’t manage to cook a meal themselves.” Meals on Wheels volunteers deliver over 14.8 million meals to more than 50,000 recipients across Australia.

Victoria unable to afford fruit fly defence meaning more pressure on the Riverland ■From Page 1 “The main issue is that Victoria had quite an effective program in the past where they’ve ensured that outbreaks across the state have been dealt with quickly “I thought the Victorian situation was still relatively firm but now we’ve got this announcement that they are pulling out on eradicating. “That is a huge concern for us because they are our nextdoor neighbours.� With the State Government forming the South Australian Regional Advisory Committee (SARAC) and the SA Citrus Industry Development Board to be no longer, Mr Green said there are concerns about the long term future of the awareness program. “The only industry organisation that has been funding fruit fly community awareness or programs to prevent the outbreak of fruit fly in this state has actually come from the SA Citrus Industry Development board,� he said. “Given the announcement that the board is not going to be around any longer we are hugely concerned there will be no funding for those kinds of activities. “SARAC is going to be extremely limited because their budget is just so small and this would be a bad time to reduce those activities, particularly now Victoria has made this announcement.� Mr Green said the permanent fruit fly roadblocks in the Riverland are needed now more than ever. “It just reinforces the importance of those permanent roadblocks which we fought hard to retain,� he said. “We would be wanting to get assurances that the current program at least continues at the level it is operating.�

Against alcohol hike
A PROPOSAL to the Federal Government to raise the price of alcohol, which would severely impact the Riverland wine region, has received backing from health and consumer groups. It is understood a floor pricing model on alcohol is being developed for the Federal Government in a move which could potentially see the price of clean skins and cask wine rise dramatically. Riverland Winegrape Grow-
ers Association executive officer Chris Byrne said it will continue to remind government bodies of the importance of the Riverland wine industry. “The Riverland wine growers and winemakers will work with their respective state and federal counterparts and the relevant government bodies and continue to encourage responsible alcohol consumption, while also continuing to emphasise the value of the winegrape in-
dustry to regional, state and national economies,� Mr Byrne said. Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said raising the price of alcohol and punishing producers is not the answer. “It would potentially decimate our style of wine in the alcohol industry,� he said. “We produce affordable wine that people can drink everyday. “What would the flow on effect be if they made casks that
dear, would people go on to drink harder drinks? “It would make spirits cheaper, it would make premium wine cheaper and that’s not addressing the issue. “Addressing the availability is one way of looking at it but to ban the cheaper drinks, I don’t believe is the answer.� The Federal Government will receive a report by December about the case for a floor price on alcohol.
Camp committee to create new display A LOVEDAY Internment Camp display to be established in the Barmera Visitor Information Centre is expected to become a major tourism attraction. Loveday Internment Camp Museum Steering Committee chairperson Rosemary Gower said herself and Berri Barmera Council representatives recently met with the Barmera District War Memorial Community Centre where they were given the green light to set up a display. Ms Gower said there may even be an option in the future to build a museum on the site. “For me personally, it will be one of the happiest days of my life because it has been my passion for so many years,� she said. “We’ve been trying to establish a museum for over 12 months to no avail. “Now the material from the camp can be preserved and not lost. “I think the museum is going to get very big and attract people to the area.�
â– HISTORY: Loveday Internment Camp Museum Steering Commitee chairperson Rosemary Gower and committee member Mario Centofanti with the newly made retractable information signs. A war trail is also being planned by Ms Gower to include places on interest in Barmera such as the Upper Garden of Memory, where Loveday internees were first buried. There are also plans to conduct tours around places of interest at the various camps.
She also hopes to set-up a special Loveday Internment Camp Preservation Foundation board and a website devoted to the camp. “All the local groups will be working together to promote the camp,� she said. “I’ve got numerous objects,
relics and memorabilia from the camp and I want them to go in the big display case I’ve got and then coaches can pull up right next to the tourist centre.� Meanwhile, the committee also recently erected banners depicting history at the Loveday Internment Camp thanks to over $3000 in grant funding from the Anzac Day Commemoration Council. “What I’ve tried to do with these banners is to cover as much information as I could and get people’s stories across,� Ms Gower said. “I want people to realise that these people weren’t just numbers, they weren’t just faceless people who they called alien civilians. “I want to bring their stories alive, I want people to know what they went through and what happened to them afterwards.� The retractable banners will be used for education at schools and for tourists and are currently on display at the Berri Library.
Caitlin proud to be third generation paramedic BEING a paramedic certainly runs in the family for Caitlin McDonald. The second year paramedic student currently doing her placement in Loxton is following in the footsteps of her grandfather and father, who both worked in the same field. In fact, her grandfather Ronald was the first full time ambulance officer at Barmera and her father also worked at the Barmera station during his career, as well as in Renmark. Caitlin, who grew up in the Riverland but now calls Pinnaroo home, attended Renmark High School before pursuing a career that was very familiar to her family. “In year 12 I wanted to study medicine but I was put off by the
thought of having to be at university for six years and everything that goes into that,� she said. “Dad was a paramedic and I started to think, ‘why not?’ “It runs in the family, so it worked out really well.� Studying in Adelaide, Caitlin saw the opportunity for a 12 month Riverland placement in conjunction with the Flinders University Rural Clinical School in Renmark and applied, where she was offered placement in Loxton. “I do my placements at Loxton and they are incredible, I absolutely adore the people that I work with over there,� she said. “One of the challenging things is that in Adelaide there is 160 students in my year so we don’t get the opportunity to practice things very much, so they’ve had to S TAT E O P E R A O F S O U T H AU S T R A L I A I N A S S O C I AT I O N W I T H C O U N T RY A R T S S A P R E S E N T S A N E W P R O D U C T I O N take a lot of time to teach me how to do things well.� Caitlin is hopeful of being able to return to work in the Riverland once she has finished studying.
“If there is a job up here I would love to come back to the Riverland because my grandad and my dad have worked here,� she said. “It would be really awesome if I could come back and work at Barmera sometime and be the third generation to have worked at the one ambulance station. “Unfortunately my grandad passed away last year so he can’t

“There are reasons why they’ve delayed the Olympic Dam expansion and that is because South Australia is such an expensive place to do business.� BHP Billiton has told the State Government it is deferring the project to allow for the development of a new mine plan involving capital efficiencies. However, the company
still wants to push forward with the expansion in the future. Representatives from BHP held a meeting in the Riverland in December to assess the amount of interest from local companies. Premier Jay Weatherill said he is disappointed by the decision. “There is no doubt this is a major disappointment for South Australia and the
nation, especially for those workers and businesses who had set themselves to work on the expansion project,� he said. “It is also a particular disappointment for the regional towns...who had started to experience the benefits in activity that this expansion was bringing. “As BHPB have made clear today, this decision is based on global factors quite outside of our control.�

United States drought may benefit Riverland and Mallee farmers
Prices on the rise
THE rising pressure of the American drought could see Riverland and Mallee growers benefit from higher prices and demand for corn, soy and wheat. South Australian Farmers Federation president Peter White said problems with growing conditions in parts of South Australia could also see additional increases in wheat, barley and canola. “The latest report out of America from the United
States Department of Agriculture has put their corn crop at the lowest in 17 years and it is actually getting worse,” he said. “We are seeing the prices firm somewhat which is all good. “The next question is how much of it are we going to get production wise.” It is also a waiting game to see the impact of a potential export ban in Russia, according to Mr White.
“If Russia decide to put an export ban on like they did once before then we could see quite a little kick in the prices again,” he said. Mr White said parts of the state have not faired so well with the weather this season. “Around the state, it’s a bit of a mixed bag, we’ve got areas like Kangaroo Island for example and a few places in the South East where it is actually too wet
and the crops are actually water logged and they are dying,” he said. “We then go to the upper north cropping region in southern Eyre Peninsula and a few other patches around where it is actually too dry. “The next six weeks are going to tell the story quite dramatically particularly in the Riverland and Mallee areas where they tend to be a bit earlier than some of the rest of the state.”
Drug drivers caught FOURTEEN drivers tested positive to drug tests during an operation last weekend targeting drug driving in the Riverland. Local police, supported by police from the Drug Driver Testing Unit from Adelaide, conducted the operation between Friday and Sunday testing 171 people for drugs and 171 people for alcohol. Of those tested, 14 drivers tested positive, while there were also 10 traffic infringement notices issued and 10 vehicles were defected. Officer in Charge of the Murray Mallee Local Service Area Superintendent Ian Parrott said operations targeting drug driving and using support from areas such as the Drug Driver Testing Unit from Ad-

EDB: Riverland brand won’t be lost PARTICIPANTS at the Branding South Australia consultation in Berri last week emphasised that the region’s image must not be lost in the overall state concept. About 35 people attended the consultation providing feedback on what they thought was unique about South Australia and the Riverland. The consultations being undertaken by the Economic Development Board (EDB) have been held across South Australia. EDB director Patrick Robinson said the Riverland brand would not be lost in the overall South Australia image. “South Australia is a state of regions and the Riverland is a key part of that,” he said. “If we get the South Australia brand right it will support regional identity and regional branding. “We are not going to say we are overriding the Riverland’s brand or anybody else’s brand. “What the Riverland will be able to do is leverage the additional awareness of South Australia that the South Australia brand will give.” Mr Robinson said the feedback put forward during the consultation will be used in the overall process. “We’ve had good turnout and good input from all of the meetings but I just want to say that this felt like a particularly energised and keen bunch of people really willing to get stuck in with us,” he said. “They confirmed and reaffirmed

Revitalise East Terrace LOXTON’S town centre will be revitalised to include a new gateway, outdoor cinema screen and pedestrian linkages as part of a project to bring East Terrace “into the now”. Draft concepts for Our Hub Our Pride...East Terrace Revitalisation project were presented to the Loxton Waikerie Council on Friday with overwhelming support. The project is a joint venture of council, the Loxton Recreation Grounds Committee and the Loxton and District Chamber of Commerce. Council has budgeted $100,000 to implement the agreed concept but the project will be reliant upon grant funding. Loxton Chamber of Commerce chair Bronwyn Proud said the concept plans, which are yet to be released to the public, will help attract and keep people in the town. She is hopeful some of the concepts will be implemented in the current financial year. “It is just a fantastic opportunity because it (the main street) is a drawcard, it is the heart and soul of your town and it is where people first go when they are visiting the town,” she said. “We can make it better for people, more of a people’s place, a place where people remember and encourage them to come back to and it encourages them to stay longer. “It’s really important to have a vibrant main street for your town and even though we get a lot of really good comments about our main street, you can always get better.” There are seven main elements to the overall concept and Mrs Proud said the next step is for the

A television/projection unit will be installed in the area to be used to screen special events or community information. The existing lawn area between the new performance space and gazebo will be upgraded with the opportunity for a portable game board such as chess.

THE GRAIN LANE ‘The Grain Lane’ concept is a new feature of the field days designed to highlight the exhibitions of interest to the broad acre dry land farmer. The Riverland Field Days features a wide range of farm machinery, products and services for the grain farmer.
Outdoor cinema/performance area
New pedestrian linkages
THERE will be clear pedestrian linkages to the bottom and top of East Terrace through each section of the median strip and crossovers. Included will be ‘walker friendly’ elements like drinking fountains, seating, rest areas and dog watering points. New paths will be included within the grassed area in the median strip between Edwards Street and the hotel crossover, which will be lined with picture panels detailing historic or other items of interest from the district, or potentially public art.
Drabsch Street crossover THE Drabsch Street crossover will remain open to traffic for the majority of the time but with the inclusion of infrastructure to provide an option to be temporarily closed for events. Infrastructure will also be provided for markets and gourmet food festivals and electrical options to host online interactive gaming competitions.

community to have their say via consultation. “The river is really an important part,” she said. “We need to link our main street a lot more with the river and make people aware that we do have a river down there. “The whole idea is to try and create a real village centre so we can have the ability to close off the Drabsch Street crossover. “It’s not a permanent thing, it’s so we can just close it off when we need to with bollards and we will utilise that area a lot more effectively when we have events in town. “It’s such a positive thing for our town, it is change, it is new but it is a positive change and there are no negatives about what we are doing. “It’s also about stepping into the now and stepping into the future.”
LOCATED at the southern end of East Terrace, the gateway is designed to provide a new entry statement and direct tourists through to the river. It will also include extended traffic measures V E RL A N D I R to slow vehicles in the area, wider footpaths and a safer crossing point. The gazebo will also be upgraded. LD
A RIVERLAND parent group is holding two presentations on Wednesday about keeping children safe on the internet. The Renmark Primary and Junior Primary School Parent Group recently received funding from the Department for Education and Child Development to host two presentations at 2pm and 7pm at the school’s library. Organiser Nicole Nuske said Riverland parents must be informed about the dangers of the internet. “The internet now is pretty wide and they (children) don’t understand the consequences of their actions sometimes,” she said. “A lot of parents, we think we know what’s going on, we know how to keep them safe, but there are so many things that can happen with Facebook, YouTube and security. “There is so much we need to be educated on as parents.” The presentation involving the local police and will cover online risks and how to minimise them for children. Mrs Nuske, who has children aged seven and nine, said if she can be one step ahead of the youngsters, it could be very beneficial. “If they are on the internet I am usually around them but it won’t be long and they’ll be at that age where it is going to be harder to control,” she said. “The more I can educate myself, I can keep an eye on what they are doing and be helpful to them.” Mrs Nuske is encouraging parents across the region to attend the presentations. “Any way we can educate parents about keeping their children safe on the internet has got to be a good thing,” she said. Bookings for the presentations on Wednesday can be made on 8586 6146.

Redesigned Allen Hosking Rest THE median strip in front of the hotel will be redesigned to perpetuate and continue to recognise the contribution of Allen Hosking to Loxton. This will include the removal of the existing water features and plantings to open up the view to the river with new plantings of shade trees with seating. Between the plantings will be a low ‘rill’ of very shallow running water representing the river.
New bus and taxi parking THE current bus park to the west of the library will be removed and converted to seating and gardens as the current configuration means the bus needs to reverse into oncoming traffic. A dedicated drive through bus bay will be provided on the southern side of the Edwards Street crossover. The taxi rank is also proposed to be relocated to the south western side of the library with its own dedicated park.
Seating and gardens THERE will be improved seating and gardens particularly around the library and gazebo area including the provision of laptop, iPod and Smartphone charging points, animal water points and bike racks. Existing no parking areas will be filled with kerbed gardens, trees and seating. New lighting will be installed along East Terrace.
IT IS being proposed that a performance area be created immediately to the south of the library. This
Biggest Orchid Spectacular THIS weekend’s Annual Orchid Spectacular is shaping up to be one of the biggest shows yet.

Riverland businesses involved in Daffodil Day tomorrow TOMORROW the Riverland will embrace national Daffodil Day when communities across Australia take part in the iconic event. By being involved, your generosity will help Cancer Council SA fund groundbreaking cancer research, develop prevention programs and provide support for people affected by cancer. These breakthroughs aim to reverse the alarming statistic that one in two Australians
will be diagnosed with cancer by age 85. “Cancer Council’s Daffodil Day is a chance for all of us to grow hope for a brighter, cancer-free future,” Cancer Council SA chief executive professor Brenda Wilson said. “Show your support for the 9000 South Australians who will be diagnosed with cancer this year alone by buying a bunch of daffodils or wearing your
daffodil pin proudly.” One of the local businesses supporting the event is Coles Berri, located on Kay Avenue. There will be a range of fantastic activities across the day with a Daffodil Day cake at 11am, lucky door prizes between 11am and 1pm, raffles, lucky squares, face painting between 3pm and 4pm and plenty more. Every dollar donated will go to the Cancer Council SA.

Sweet fundraiser ■ OFFER: Petticoat Lane Ladies Auxiliary members (from left) Judith Becker, Mary White and president Shirley Ingerson with some of the goodies on offer at the annual event.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Don’t penalise those doing their own recycling I AM most dismayed to hear about the price increase for everyone with the advent of the extra recycling bins in the Loxton Waikerie Council area. It is an added rate increase for a specific item. Unlike the general community items that we all use at some time or other. It would be fairer to us all if it were a “user pays” system and if we were able to opt out of it. This price increase will affect everyone, whether we use it or not. Many clubs and households do their own recycling and will not require these bins, so why inflict this extra cost on us? It will also put more burden on the senior citizens who are struggling with increased costs already on other utilities. I have always done my own recycling and object strongly to this extra payment which I have no use for. I realise it is going to cost the council a great deal of money oth-
erwise but please, don’t penalise the ones who have been doing their own recycling for many years and in the process cutting council costs and landfill. There was an outcry when our very efficient irrigators in SA, who have been conserving water for many years, were penalised. This, I think, comes under the same category. Ann Woolf, Waikerie.
Fuel fury WELL here we go again, prices up. Recently (August 7) I travelled to Berri to see family and paid $1.29 cents per litre for petrol, while the Waikerie Shell price was $138.9 per litre, a saving of nine cents a litre by buying fuel at Berri. Whilst I was in Berri I did some shopping at Coles, spent over $30 and received a docket to save eight cents per litre. On August 15, the Waikerie Shell was priced at $146.9 per litre, which had gone up by eight cents per litre overnight.
THE popular annual Petticoat Lane fundraiser is just around the corner with the event being held at the Berri Senior Citizens Hall on August 31 for the 47th time. Organisers of the event, the Petticoat Lane Ladies Auxiliary, are hoping to raise up to $10,000 to go towards the set up of a treatment room at St Catherine’s in Berri. The room will provide massages for the elderly who are bed ridden to keep their muscles toned. There will be a range of homemade biscuits, cakes, crafts, plants and produce to name a few on offer at Petticoat Lane, with light lunch also available. “It’s just a real get together and social day for people to meet each other,” President Shirley Ingerson said. “Many of them come and sit and end up staying for the day.” The fundraiser will begin in Berri from 9am.
Encouraging locals to recycle AS part of Keep Australia Beautiful (KAB) Week, which began on Monday, the Renmark to the Border Local Action Planning Association (RBLAP) is encouraging locals to recycle extra mail. The group has provided a recycling bin at the front of the Renmark Post Office until Sunday, encouraging unwanted mail to be deposited in the bin to minimise the amount of paper thrown into the rubbish and landfill. The free service is emptied on a regular basis and is taken to the Renmark Recycling Service. The Renmark recycling service sends up
to 30 tonnes of cardboard and paper per month to Visy recycling in Adelaide. KAB Week raises awareness to reduce littering and encourage recycling. Keep Australia Beautiful hopes to challenge and inspire all Australians to strive for a sustainable and litter free environment. “People can minimise landfill by first reducing the amount of packaging or unnecessary items they purchase,” a RBLAP spokesperson said. “Secondly, many items can be reused around the home or given to someone else to reuse.”
Have your say about the issues that affect you. That docket for eight cents per litre was then worthless. Can anyone explain to me how Coles can justify this latest price rise? Come on Coles what about a fair go for the punters? Kevin Datson, Waikerie.
Unveiling of monument ON Sunday, November 18, 2012 a monument will be unveiled at Milich’s Landing, Pyap to acknowledge the arrival of our pioneer ancestors Johannes (John) and Ernestine (Pauline) “Grossmutter” Milich in 1899. John and Pauline had 14 children. They were Wilhelm, Adolph, Johannes, Anna, George, Heinrich, Bertha, Hulda, Carl, Paul, Doris, Otto, Charlotte and Edward. Descendents of these families are asked to contact Lynn Schmaal on (08) 8584 7719 or after hours on 0438 846 164 or email schmaal@ hotmail.com or Denise Van Oostveen on (08) 8582 3609 or email
denmarc@riverland.net.au with addresses of family members so information can be sent to them. We are hoping to print a family history book from Johannes and Pauline Milich and we are also looking for memorabilia to put in the time capsule. Donations for the erection of the monument will be gratefully received and can be made to: Milich’s Landing Cairn Fundraising, ANZ Bank 015 513 a/c no. 2797 32363. Lynn Schmaal (Descendent of Carl), Denise Van Oostveen (Descendent of Adolph).
Food for thought on Basin Plan PERHAPS the following is ‘food for thought’ in regards to the Murray Darling Basin Plan? South Australian irrigators’ water security is dependent on the permitted usage percentages annually determined by the South Australian Government.
SA Government policy of, where possible, avoiding bank flows for river flows below 60,000 megalitres per day does not achieve maximum potential environmental outcomes. Supposedly, environmental water flows are needed to transport and flush salt out to the sea. Despite the past two years of above-entitlement flows, intercepted saline water continued to be pumped out to and dumped in Stockyard Plain disposal basin. In South Australia during the recent drought, the River Marne ceased to flow in the Murray and its associated groundwater levels were depleted. Now the SA Government is seeking expressions of interest to increase groundwater extractions in this area. The Lower Lakes water levels are to be lowered to drain salt from Lake Albert, which will then be refilled. Why is the same not done for Lake Bonney in the Riverland? Tom Loffler, Waikerie.

The Father’s Day gift that keeps on giving ther’s Day gift that keeps on giving – adult children who are financially independent.
By AMP Financial Planner Danny Kearney*
H
AVING the kids jump into bed with dad on Father’s Day is a great way to start the morning. Although the experience may not be as enjoyable for him once the kids hit the age of 30. With the rising cost of just about everything, it has become more common to see grown-up children not leaving the nest until their 30s. So it’s more important than ever that children learn from a young age about the value of money and are taught to be responsible when it comes to earning it, spending it and investing it. Regular chats around topics like, saving a little of every dollar earned, understanding about the impact of compound interest and the importance of tracking spending and budgeting, are very worthwhile. Children of all ages need appropriate guidance when it comes to money but just how do you go about doing that? Here are some tips that could result in the ultimate Fa-
Walk the walk Children learn first and foremost by role-modelling what they see their parents doing. So you can’t just talk the talk if you’re not walking the walk yourself. It’s important to make sure you have a plan for the future and are on-track financially, or that you are getting guidance in this area and seeking professional help from a qualified financial planner. Also speak openly and often at home about your plans and what you are doing to achieve them. Little ears are always listening.
KISS That’s Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS). There’s no point giving complex ‘lectures’ about money, it’ll be lost on children and they are likely to tune out because they either don’t understand or are bored. When you’re explaining a new
concept it’s best to give an analogy and an example to illustrate your point – injecting humour often helps children to engage and enjoy learning too.
Play games Participating in games is not only great fun but it can teach young people important financial lessons. For younger children, games such as monopoly can kick start conversations about investing in property. For older children there are some fantastic online games available that teach money and life skills. Some involve pretending to invest in the stock market and then following the stocks purchased over a period of time to see how much money can be made (or lost). Others revolve around budgeting and simulated ‘real life’ scenarios.
Family habits There are some great life-long habits children can learn in the family home.
In some families great use is made of the old coin jar where family members put spare change, add it up and then divide it amongst themselves at Christmas for gift-buying. Another good habit is to keep a receipt box for each person to store receipts from anything purchased. This is a great way to encourage kids to keep track of spending and it’s important later on in life for tax purposes.
Tough love As hard as this may be, it does not help children in the long run when they receive all the material ‘stuff’ they want. Children can learn the value of money by saving up for things they want rather than having their parents buying everything for them. This will teach them to appreciate money and, hopefully, to be responsible with it. Talk to your children about their goals and help them to put in place a savings plan. The old Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish and you’ll feed him for a day; teach him to fish and you’ll
feed him for a lifetime,” certainly applies to this situation.
The gift of time Of course, more important than money is the gift of time – consider declaring this Fathers’ Day a gift-free one and request instead that you spend some time together as a family doing something you all love. With the money saved, you could open a family bank account earning high-interest. Decide as a family what you are saving for and how much per week to add to the account. Track the account monthly as a family project so the kids can see the power of regular savings and compound interest. *Danny Kearney is an Authorised Representative of AMP Financial Planning Pty Ltd, ABN 89 051 208 327, AFS Licence No. 232706.

Small business owners face cash flow challenges
By accountant Mike Taylor ONE of the most important issues facing small business owners is cash flow. The old saying that “cash
s !LL RETURN TYPES s 0ERSONAL BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP s &EE FROM REFUND SERVICE AVAILABLE
is king” still rings true. Cash flow is important for many reasons. Your suppliers and employees want to be paid, the bank certainly wants their payments and let’s not forget the ‘tax man’ (the Australian Tax Office). Last of all, you as a business owner probably want to put food on the table. Let’s face it, often the business owner is the last one in the ‘pecking order’ to get paid.
An extremely useful tool is the Cash Flow Budget. Traditionally these have been under-utilised by business owners.

Your accountant can certainly help you in this process. Since the introduction of GST a lot of businesses have
struggled to keep their cashflow positive. One technique that works well is to open a separate bank account, usually an on-line account and have a strict routine of transferring funds on a regular basis to allow for the quarterly GST liability. This account also works well for parking money aside to cover the employee PAYG tax deducted from wages and your own PAYG tax too. This method removes
the Tax Office liability money collected from your normal cashflow and gives a truer indication of the real position of your bank balance or overdraft. The added benefit is being able to pay your quarterly BAS when due, without the headache of trying to find the money. You must remember to be very strict with yourself, and not be tempted to use the accumulation of funds for any other purpose.

Desexing stops dogs biting DOGS are seven to ten times more likely to bite if they have not been desexed, according to a review by the Dog and Cat Management Board. Board chairperson Jan Connolly said the study was a literature review focusing on animal behaviour research and dog bite statistics, as part of an effort to find an approach that reduced the risk of injury from dogs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Research has consistently found that intact male dogs are more aggressive than desexed males, and that male dogs are most commonly involved in attacks,â&#x20AC;? Ms Connolly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153; Te s t o s t e r o n e makes an intact male dog react to a strange person or dog more intensely and more quickly than a desexed dog. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s review found that an intact male dog was seven times more likely to bite, while an intact female was 10 times more likely to bite than their desexed counterparts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is likely that desexing all dogs, with the exception of assessed breeding animals, would result in at least a fourto-ten-fold reduction in the number of attacks.â&#x20AC;? Ms Connolly said it was often difficult to identify potentially dangerous dogs in the community before they caused injury to people or other animals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are already a number of strategies in place to address aggressive dog-related incidents under the Dog and Cat Management Act,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, we feel that it is very important that management should focus on prevention of injury and not solely post-incident
â&#x2013; AGGRESIVE: Dogs are seven to 10 times more likely to bite if they are not desexed. management and punishment.â&#x20AC;? Ms Connolly said from a public health point of view, desexing dogs is an example of changing the environment we live in to be less risky, rather than relying on human behaviour change through education to reduce injury resulting from
dog attacks. This health approach to injury control has yet to be applied to the problem of dog bites in the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the long term, the Dog and Cat Management Board considers that the breeding of dogs should be regulated to require
temperament assessments of all breeding stock,â&#x20AC;? Ms Connolly said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is consistent with the recently released policy position by the Australian Veterinary Association and will eventually result in building a population of sociable, friendly and amicable dogs.â&#x20AC;? Ms Connolly said the routine desexing of dogs could also result in a range of wellknown health, welfare and behavioural benefits for dogs and their owners. These include improvement in the animalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sociability and a reduction in unwanted litters from indiscriminate breeding, while also including a reduction in the risk of dog-related injury to people.

Armchair Experts RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS FIRST SEMI-FINAL
Ramco v Cobdogla COBDOGLA earnt a place in the top four after a team effort against Ramco on the weekend but this time around it will not be that easy. The Eagles have one of the hardest tasks in Independent football, travelling to Ramco needing victory in this knock out contest. Ramco will include ruckman Jamie O’Callaghan and Cameron Hawke in the team, while Cobdogla has a full
strength side with the exception of Adam Barnett who is likely not to play due to injury. The Roosters should have the upper hand in the ruck contests with O’Callaghan against Craig Aitken, while Graeme Dyer should get the job on Max Baddack again after restricting him to one goal on the weekend. The midfield battle wil be crucial with Bryce Matthews and Marcus McGrath against Josh Wiseman and Tyson Maynard. Cobdogla will be looking to its youth to provide the run
and carry needed to break a strong Ramco defence led by Damian Crowe. On paper Ramco appears much too strong but Cobdogla coach Brad Gillespie is confident in his team;s chances. “Some of the younger ones are getting a bit more belief,” he said. “It’s just good to get there (the finals).” Ramco is hard to stop and should win this contest easily, sending a message to BSR and Paringa in the process.
Max Martinson (BSR)
THE prospect of the two top teams in the competition potentially facing each other for three consecutive games will be a test for both clubs. Paringa was able to stake the early claim for the flag and the tag of premiership favourites with a win over Blanchetown/Swan Reach on the weekend. The two teams meet again at Brown’s Well in what should be an entertaining match. Everything is on the line, as the loser is likely to face
Ramco in a sudden death play-off. Both teams will make some important changes with BSR’s defence to be boosted as Kyle and Mark Coleman and Chris Giles return. Paringa will be hoping Wade Simpson recovers from a dislocated shoulder and Tom Frahn, who rolled an ankle. Mick Miller will also return to improve the ruck stocks. Both teams have strong scoring options with Max and Jed Martinson to be watched closely by Duane Angel and Dave Grenfell. At the other end, Kyle Coleman will use his pace against Dean Hill and Mark
Coleman may match up on Sam Frahn. BSR coach Peter Zadow said “finals is a funny game, anything could happen”. “It’s a pretty good opportunity for us and we’ll be going all out to win,” he said. Paringa coach Arrod Westley said this is a huge game for the club. “It’s prety hard to beat a quality team three weeks in a row but we are confident,” he said. Paringa should win by three goals and advance through to the grand final.

? Did you know..?
RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE - ROUND SIXTEEN ,/
MATCH OF THE ROUND will be put through fitness tests before he is declared fit to take his position this round. Loxton North is also likely to field a full strength team despite the club not knowing if prolific midfielder Dan Proud will return to the A grade this round. Forward Blake Milich was missing in action in the second half last round due to an ankle injury but we expect him to play against Waikerie. This match should be a tight tussle with both teams having solid defences. Ben Venning has been the main target up forward for Waikerie and either Anton Cook or Josh Voigt are likely to get that match up. Milich may face inform full back Aaron Nettelbeck, while Steven Braun will be too strong for Justin Proud. In the middle of the ground, Ryan Proud and Michael Bratton should go head-to-head, while the contest between Jamie Ferguson and Tim Bevan will be one to watch. Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said his
Waikeriee v Loxton North IT IS one of the hardest tasks in Riverland football to travel to Waikerie and return with a win but Loxton North must do just that. The reigning premier will not be able to qualify for the finals without a victory. With a number of players recently back from injury, Waikerie will give them some strong game time. Waikerie co-coach Craig Griffiths said the temptation is there to rest players but he said the team needs to continue gaining momentum leading into the finals. “it’s very dangerous to take a game of footy easy,” Griffiths said. “For us we need to manage our players. “It’s about getting them prepared for the second semi-final.” The Magpies will almost be at full strength with Matt Underwood and Daniel Smith to play, while Andrew Bachmann
team is still a mathematical chance to make the finals and is leaving it up to his players. “While it’s still mathematically there, there is still a lot of hope,” he said. “Footy’s a funny game.” The Panthers got off to a slow start against Barmera-Monash on the weekend and Wooldridge said a strong first quarter is vital this round. “I think the start’s more important than any other game this year,” he said. “Once you get behind it is pretty hard to to play catch up with Waikerie at Waikerie.” Griffith said he expects a competitive contest. “They will obviously come down throwing everything at us,” he said. “The work starts now. “We want to play the attacking style of footy we have been and get our hands on the footy first.” The Panthers wil be desperate for a win but Waikerie is just too strong, shutting down the midfield and running out eight goal winners.

Loxton v Berri
RFL B GRADE
WHILE Loxton will finish with the wooden spoon, the Tigers can end the season on a high note against Berri. The Demons are just starting to get a settled team following a horror season with injury. Martin Barber and Aaron Gepp were late withdrawals last round and will return to the Berri team, while it would seem that young Colby Harris and Daniel Brown could be the pair to miss out. At Loxton, captain Leigh Kruger dislocated his shoulder, Raph Iiddle copped a knock to the nose and Jarrod Milich received a corked thigh on the weekend and they are all in doubt to play. Mitch Fazekas will be unvailable, while Nick Uren will need to overcome hamstring problems. This match should be free flowing with plenty of goals from Jamahl Liddle at one end and David Hankin at the other. Brad Dolling stepped up in the ruck after Gepp was a late withdrawal for Berri last round. He may play a role on Jesse Smith. Berri coach Alby Brand said his team cannot become complacent. “We’ve got to finish the year properly and we can’t just go into this game thinking ‘this is only Loxton’,” he said. “We are still trying to find a settled side to go in confident.” Loxton coach Mick Zerna is looking to the future. “While we didn’t have too many wins, we believe we’ve taken some major steps,” he said. Berri to win by more than six goals.
BERRI is likely to claim fourth spot on the Riverland Football League B grade ladder and a spot in the finals. The Demons take on bottom placed Loxton this round with the teams locked on four wins. However, recent form would suggest that Berri can claim victory with Loxton North having the almost impossible chance of beating Waikerie to make the four. The Demons also have some A grade talent playing in the reserves with Rory Correll and David Centofanti both with A grade games under their belts. Simon Atkins has been consistent, while Sam Ingerson booted three goals on the weekend and could be a strong target up forward. Loxton needs to find some goal scoring options to back up the good work of Grant Dahlitz, Tim Durling and Jacob Harris. While Barmera-Monash has sewn up the double chance, its match against Renmark could be telling. The Rovers have been inconsistent but may give the Roos a good run this round. Nick Milich, veteran Dale Lellmann and Peter Morath have all provided spark for the Rovers but they will find it hard to overcome BarmeraMonash’s depth. Ryan Villis, Brett McPherson, Corey Hanna and Brodie Jennings are all experienced players for the Roos and will lead from the front. The Roos should win this contest by four goals. In the other match, Waikerie will beat Loxton North to finish unbeaten at the top of the ladder.The list of contributors is long with Brook Hoad, Steve Hefford, Steve Liebich, Zac Caudo and Joel Fladrich all good in recent weeks. For Loxton North, Josh Deren is in doubt due to injury but Steve Inglis and Ben Williams have tried hard.

THE OTHER GAMES
Renmark v BarmeraMonash RENMARK may pounce on the opportunity to challenge minor premier Barmera-Monash with key players rested. The Rovers need a win to consolidate a finals position but the in-form Roos will be hard to beat. However, with a number of sore players, Barmera-Monash will consider resting players. Forward Murray Middleton will rest this round, while the Roos will welcome back Michael Smart. For Renmark, the team is likely to remain unchanged. The Rovers have been an improving team this
season but may struggle to run with the depth of Barmera-Monash. The last time these two teams met the margin was 119 points in the Roos favour but this time should be much closer. Big men Aaron Camplin should get the job on Robert Price, while Nick Gillard has been good on Smart in the past. The Barmera-Monash defence may be tested with Ben Wagnitz, Steven Pitt and James Bentley all playing deep in the forward line. That may stop the run of Dillon Millard, Matt Leyson and Jack Selfe, who will all need to be accountable. The Roos would have to be happy with the form of Mal Greenwood leading into the finals and Ryan Burns has also
been impressive. Renmark captain Trevor Thorpe has been a strong leader and will be important in the finals if the Rovers make it through. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said his team has made a strong turn around since 2010. “We’ve been competitive for a lot of this year, even though we’ve gone down in a lot of close ones,” he said. “We’re not overly confident we can can beat the top team but if we play our best footy, we know we can win.” Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said the focus is on the finals. “We’ll be having a look at that oval because that’s where the grand final willl be palyed,” he said. Barmera-Monash should win by five goals.

SECOND SEMI-FINAL
BDT V Karoonda THE second semi-final at Karoonda offers the Magpies a chance to advance straight into the grand final. With home ground advantage, Karoonda must put on a good show against reigning premier Border Downs Tintinara. When the two teams met in the final minor round, BDT were convincing winners. Both teams have important inclusions with BDT welcoming back Chris Gregory, Josh Richardson and Mark Vandeleur.
Karoonda will regain Mark Corrie, Nick Zander and Josh Rudiger. Again, the midfield match-ups are crucial in the outcome of this match. The Crows boast a formidable line-up of Josh Keller, Patrick Barrett, Clint Richardson and Lachlan Richardson. For Karoonda Mark Corrie, Ben Quinn, Corey Knight, Zakk Bullard and Simon Martin are all capable in the centre of the ground. The ruck contest will also be pivotal with Lucas Neumann up against Hayden Schilling. Both teams have quick forward lines and Karoonda’s

Andrew Smithson is likely to shut down Ty McKenna and Shane Binns. The Magpie defence including Daniel Thiele, Josh Rosenzweig and Eli Koch, will need to watch Mark Vandeleur across half forward, as well as Josh Richardson. BDT love to run the ball off half back through Chris Gregory and Lee Slape but both will need to be mindful of Nick Zander, Josh Rudiger and Ryan Paech up forward for the Mapgies. After finishing minor premier and being rarely challenged this season, BDT should advance through to another grand final with a five goal win.

CHARLIEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S SPORTS GOSS
T The Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most authoritative sports commentator ...
WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON
Crows big man in the headlines interstate â&#x2013; VISITORS from down South to Far North Queensland can be assured of one thing. The local media will starve them of AFL coverage with rugby taking centre stage. Mind you, things have improved as far as AFL information is concerned over the past decade or so and the recent conjecture regarding Adelaide Crows forward-ruckman Kurt Tippettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future and his possible return to his home state Queensland has certainly received some attention. Particularly with the state now having two rival clubs in Brisbane and Gold Coast keen on the 25-year-old, 202 centimetre, 104 kilogram giant joining their ranks. Profiles on Tippett refer to his agility and versatility for such a big man, how he attracting the oppositionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defender, his ability to compete in the air and bringing the ball to ground with the ability to bring teammates into the game. Of course, the Crows have always used these points, plus his relief ruck work, to reconcile with him being apparently their highest paid player. However, for anyone who picked up a recent Cairns paper and noted a schedule of Tippettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career performances, they could surely be excused for having some doubts on the former Queensland under 18 basketballerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value for money. He is nearing 100 games, averages less than seven kicks, less than four handballs and marks, around two tackles, two goals and seven hit outs per outing. Although amongst his marking statistics he sits around fifth in the AFL overall for the important contested grabs. Tippett was taken by Adelaide at number 32 in the 2006 AFL draft after turning his attention away from basketball and playing football for Queenslandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Southport Sharks. He made his AFL debut in 2008 and the following season the inevitable comparisons with legendary forward Tony Modra surfaced. Particularly after he kicked seven goals and soared for one spectacular mark in a round 11 game against Essendon. That season he kicked 55 goals and crows fans had reason to look to the popular playerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future with a great deal of enthusiasm. But even the most ardent Crows supporter would surely have to admit that while recognising the characteristics he brings to his team and teammates, his personal statistics have been disappointing. With those 55 goals from 258 disposals in 2009, he returned 46 goals from 200 disposals in 2010, 31 goals from 217 disposals in 2011 and so far in 2012, he has kicked 30 goals from 179 touches. And now he is being unluckily plagued by career threatening concussion. There is a strong view in Queensland that Tippett will return to being a banana bender in 2013. Crows supporters would then lose one of their favourite players but one feels a replacement of the calibre of someone like 20-year-old former South Australian junior Sam Day or his fellow Gold Coast Suns big man Daniel Gorringe would quickly ease their pain.
Renmark defends title
â&#x2013; FOR A1 grade defending netball champion Renmark, season 2012 was never going to be business as usual. For various reasons it commenced its new campaign without a number of its premiership players from the previous year and during 2012 it has continually had its line-up affected by injury. Despite this, the tremendous player depth at the club enabled it to remain undefeated well into the season. But even long term coach Ann Noack did not always seem to feel that her normally well oiled unit was functioning on all cylinders and some six or seven weeks ago you could have used the term â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;unsettledâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in some pretty ordinary performances. And on one of those occasions came the first loss for the season, convincingly to Berri. That wake up call may well be remembered as season defining if Renmark goes on to win back-toback premierships. Last Friday night Renmark again clashed with Berri and despite it being a quality contest, the result was reversed this time with Renmark successful

in winning 66-44. All the magic was back with an even spread of talent across all positions getting the job done and in particular, the emergence of young Lauren Gardner as a star at goal attack. Return to form of yesteryear of Anita Modlinski, sheer consistency of Kerri Turk in the midcourt and Hannah Foody in defence have been features of the
â&#x2013; WHILE IT is quite a problem trying to keep up with AFL progress when staying in Cairns, you could not miss the fact that the Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own young tennis star Luke Saville is coming to town. The local media was all over the 2011 Wimbledon Junior Champion and the 2012 runnerup and reigning Australian Open Junior title holder being the top seed for an Australian Pro Tour tournament to be held at the Cairns International Tennis Centre from this Saturday. These pro tours are a series of international events that serve
as a pathway to the world tennis stage by not only providing experience but valuable ranking points to participants. Tournament Director Matthew Richards said of Saville, currently 554 in open rankings, â&#x20AC;&#x153;for the people of Cairns this will probably be the last chance to see Luke before he really shoots up the rankingsâ&#x20AC;?. An Australian Money Platinum Tournament is currently running before the pro tour events gets underway but Luke is not expected to arrive until just before Saturday.
â&#x2013; THERE are plenty of changes happening in the first division menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bowling competition with the introduction of a new club, the solving of some identity problems and the spring carnivals well underway. It is all happening around lawn bowls. After comfortably taking out the second division title in 201112, Loxton RSL members voted to have a go at the top level in 2012-13 even after it was decided

by the association to leave team sizes unchanged instead of reducing them to three rinks. Loxton RSL has also adopted a new teal green and white uniform. Amongst changes aroundthe local lawn bowling clubs, very impressive alterations have been made at Waikerie with extensive renovations, new bar facilities, two big screen televisions and an office. Renmark made a number of improvements to its clubrooms
last season and this work has been continued further with pleasing results. A strange situation of three of the six first division clubs having basically blue and gold in their uniforms has resulted in Renmark RSL making a move to strengthen its own identity by changing to red and white. While talking on Renmark RSL, it seems that prospective members are often of the belief that you have to be an ex service-
man or woman to join the bowling club. That is definitely not the case and new members will always be welcome.

Richards went on to say that Luke now intends to focus on senior competitions and in Cairns will be joined by Australian Federation Cup member Olivia Rogowska and male and female players in big numbers from China, Japan, Malaysia and Indonesia. Twenty four-year-old Australian James Lemke is also returning to defend his menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s title and looms as Savilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest threat having held a world ranking of 224.

robbing its rival of the double chance in the finals and last Friday night in defeating Loxton North 68-43, showed it is capable of doing so again. On a positive note, Barmera eased key attacking player Cobie Drogemuller back into the fray after injury, while experienced Sue Whitbourne and early season star Mackella Armfield showed their best form for some time. Katie Saville continued her fine season in defence but unfortunately there are now concerns over an injury to her offsider Sheri Beech. This clash has the ingredients to be one of the games of the season. Meanwhile, Loxton North ends its season after a competitive effort against Barmera as coach Kylie Wooldridge continued to tutor a number of teenagers into the A1 competition. Names like Amber George, Jordan Jachmann, Erika Sporn and Tara Learhinan are now the future of the Loxton North A1 team and it is hoped they can be kept together for season 2013 when the results of the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth policy will become more apparent.

Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season has simply not found top gear and although Alysha Proud, Hollie Bullock, Jackie Dahlitz, Amber and Skye George and Eve Will have consistently made best player rankings, they are going to have to be on song all at once to be a threat in this important contest. And it is important as the two teams playing in the elimination first semi-final, Berri and Barmera, have shown enough to be a preliminary final threat. The highlight of Berriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season was the victory against Renmark and it will go into this game as at least a slight favourite with a impressive line-up including Tori Brown, Ellee Eleftheriadis, Nicole Hall, Carolyn Martin, Kara Henry and Kimberley Wade all in recent good form. But Barmera did upset Berri at their last meeting, probably

â&#x2013; SIXTEEN-year-old Loxton based Riverland Boxing and Fitness Club boxer Ryan Goodes ignored the advice of his father-trainer Phillip to withdraw from a bout at a Victor Harbor tournament on the weekend because of illness to score one of the best victories of his career. Ryan boxed astutely under the effects of an energy sapping virus to defeat 18-year-old Adelaide fighter Peter Hems 9-5 on points in a 67 kilogram contest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ryan was absolutely chronic with the flu,â&#x20AC;? Phillip said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He defied that and said that he wanted to go on.â&#x20AC;? Also out of the Loxton club, French backpacker Remi Droux made it two wins from two bouts when he won 10-4 against a Whyalla representative in the 75

Droux is likely to have only one further bout in September before he continues his journey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He finished strongly to get a good victory,â&#x20AC;? Phillip said. At the tournament involving 24 bouts, Phillip was also impressed by the performance of Wayne Fraser from the Renmark Boxing Club.
Fraser lost by only one point against highly rated Ben Nunan, a former State titleholder and silver medalist a the national championships. It was Phillipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first competition back since his stint with the Australian boxing team at the London Olympics. Performing as a mentor, Phillip said he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;excited about the whole experienceâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt we came away with some pretty positive results and something to build on,â&#x20AC;? he said. While the team did not feature in the medal tally, Phillip said it was one of the better overall results for the boxers in the past 20 years. The Loxton resident is keen to return to the Olympics in the same role at Rio in 2016.

The number of motorsport events Loxton’s Keke Falland has been involved with in the USA.
Keke’s USA tour ■ SHORTLY before well known Loxton motorsport identity Keke Falland left two months ago to spend some time on the team of top American driver Brian Brown in the USA, he received a number of awards at the SA Sprint Car presentations. His trophies included top points scorer in the state, Rookie of the Year and he came second in the largest competition, the All Star Series. All this in his first season in the class and having gained the South Australian number two and Victoria number three rankings. ■ AWARD WINNING: Loxton motorsport driver Keke Well, Keke still has another Falland has had a great past 12 months winning week of racing with Brown bemany awards and spending time in America with fore he returns to Australia on driver Brian Brown. September 2 but he is coming
home to another award. He was recently ranked number two when the Top Ten Australian 360 Sprint Car Drivers were named for 2011/12. In America, Keke has literally travelled all over the country with the Brown team competing in nearly 50 events in total. His heavy workload, as he has filled an important role in taking charge of Brown’s tyre management, has left him with only three to six hours sleep a night and only one day off in the time he has been there. According to his father Steve, just being around the Brown camp has meant Keke has learnt a tremendous amount.
“The only day off was Independence Day, July 4,” Steve said, “but it is all proving worthwhile as Brown has had podium finishes in both 360 and open class right around the circuit”. A highlight of the season for Brown and his team was second place in the Knoxville Nationals, the most prestigious event of all. “That was in the open class and gave Brown $75,000 in prize money,” Steve said. We have often said in this column that Keke has a burning ambition and the determination to go with it to reach the highest point he can in motorsport. This present trip to the USA seems to be another step in that direction.
Berri makes late run in women’s hockey ■ THE BERRI A grade women’s hockey team has come from the clouds late in the minor round to add interest to the competition and last weekend defeated an under strength Renmark 1-0. At the same time Loxton was a runaway winner over Waikerie 7-0. With only two rounds to play before the finals, the minor premiership is still in dispute between Loxton and Renmark. The main interest in the A grade men’s competition involves a battle for second place and the double chance between Renmark and Loxton. Last weekend top team Waikerie dominated Loxton , also under manned, 7-0 and Renmark defeated Berri 5-0. In Friday night’s clash between Berri and Renmark, there was only 10 minutes remaining in the match when Emma Burge broke a nil all deadlock to score the winning goal. It really had been a case of
missed opportunities for both sides up until then, with the goalkeepers, Sarah Oldfield for Berri and Megan Taylor for Renmark in superb form. In the men’s game, Renmark broke clear of Berri after an even first half and with players like Aden Shaw, Brett Stokes and Danial Shawyer leading the way, were right on top at the end. Saturday’s women’s match was dominated by Loxton’s Billie-Jo Hammerstein who set up a number of goals and scored four herself, while in the men’s clash Todd McFarlane, Andrew Nitschke and Jason Redemski played match-winning roles for Waikerie.

AFL Next Generation match policy addresses young football age groups ■ AS A result of a number of enquiries concerning junior footballers playing in teams outside of their age groups, including some extreme cases where six and seven year olds are appearing in under 17 competitions, an AFL Next Generation match policy has emerged. From that document a competition age range sub heading says: “If a league has no alternative than to conduct competitions that involve players participating outside the recommended two year age span they must first seek approval from their state football body”. An opinion from the SA National Football League states, “we would be unlikely to approve unless all other options have been explored”. And it recommends: Age groups of – • Five to eight years of age, comprising a combination of Auskick and modified games. Games can be played with success with as few as six players per
side. • Under 12/13 – accommodating from nine-year-olds. Modified rules and reduced team numbers worth considering. • Under 17 – For 13 to 17 year olds only. Reduced numbers in teams highly suitable. The SANFL goes on to say clubs should address the sharing of players and that they should realise that these levels of football are about everyone getting a game and a kick and that they should not be hung up on the concepts of ‘real footy’ and ‘18 a side’ etc. I am not going to debate the contents of these documents but it is a sure bet that here in a country region they would not sit comfortably with a lot of people. But surely if there are regulations we should be aware of them. Looking further through the Age Policy there were certainly some common sense statements including: • Coaches should endeavour
to match players by age and ability level. • Players can actually be given permission to play down an age level where a legitimate reason exists such as physical capacity or disability. • The principal role of parents in determining if a player should play in a higher age competition. They should only be permitted to play up an age level when their physical capacity and social sense enables them to compete. Advantages to be gained by the player have to be considered. This is a tough one but in the end common sense would seem the crucial issue. The matter of age variations has often been mentioned in connection with our local Independent under 17 competition in particular Talking to an man associated with the competition for many years, Trevor Norton, he was convinced that common sense plays a big part in the way the situation is handled.
Bowlers from across Australia take part in Loxton RSL Bowling Club August Carnival ■ BOWLERS from across South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria flocked to the Riverland from August 13 to 17 to participate in the Loxton RSL Bowling Club August Bowling Carnival.

Superdogs’ family day out ■ THE Riverland Superdogs are inviting all supporters and sponsors to their annual Family, Sponsors and Ladies Day to be held at Lyrup Oval this Sunday from 12.30pm. The club will host Adelaide team Fitzroy in the AFL Masters Competition during the afternoon. The Superdogs have provided something for everyone that attends, from young to old, during the event. Sponsors are invited to take the rare opportunity to enter the changerooms prior to the game to witness the match preview and coach Shane Healy’s usual inspiring address to his playing group. For children and those young at heart a jumping castle and face painting will be available and there will be an abundance of food and drink, including a sausage sizzle. A vague invitation to youngsters to entice their dad or grandpa out onto the oval offers some tasty rewards but a warning to any unsuspecting adults that may be in order. Out on the oval for what? Remember the Superdogs were down on numbers last time.

BARMERA-Monash is likely to rest several key players in its final minor round match of the Riverland Football League season against Renmark this weekend. Looking to end the club’s 23-year premiership drought, Roos’ coach Lyndon Burns said it is important to manage the players’ fitness. This round’s opponent Renmark may finish in the top four and while Burns said he wants his team to remain competitive, he is looking towards the finals. “The feeling around the club is good but we’ve got a few sore boys,” he said. “We’re in a place where we can rest some.” The Roos have a lot of depth this year and will be

hoping experienced grand finalists Marc and Sam Elliott, Ryan Burns and Mal Greenwood can help calm the nerves. “We’ve got a few boys in the side that know what it’s (grand final) all about,” Burns said. The coaching panel and players are fully aware of the expectation on them, according to Burns. “There’s a lot of pressure on all of us, especially me, because I played in that last grand final we won,” he said. “The boys are hungry and they are ready to go.” Meanwhile, last year’s premier Loxton North must beat Waikerie on Saturday to have any chance to grab an unlikely finals berth.
