Tributes flow for Jeremy

With mere weeks between now and graduation, a group of Warwick State High School students are preparing for the ‘real world’ in an unconventional way.

The school’s special education program has recently received a Virtual Reality simulator from disability service provider Endeavour Foundation, and is using it to develop driving skills and confidence in students.

The passing of former Warwick/Stanthorpe Today editor Jeremy Sollars has devastated the Southern Downs community and prompted tributes from friends and industry peers.

Member for Southern Downs James Lister said Jeremy “burned for the public good” and the region would not be the same without him.

Amnesty call A leading Warwick firearm dealer has backed the Crime Stoppers Queensland Illicit Firearms Campaign, joining forces to reduce the threat of illicit firearms falling into the wrong hands.

Crime Stoppers has partnered with Downs Guns and Ammo to promote a permanent national firearms amnesty, visiting Warwick on Thursday, September 9, as part of a state-wide regional road trip. While Australia has some of the toughest gun controls in the world, regional and rural property owners can be at an increased risk of their unsecured firearms being stolen and used in criminal activity.

Dragway gears up It was all hands on deck at Warwick Dragway this week, with upgrades to the facility’s 1/8 mile track finally underway after decades of advocacy.

The beloved club was awarded $1.9 million in federal and state funding late last year to extend its track at Morgan Park to the national standard 1/4 mile.

The funding will also allow the club to extend the dragstrip’s existing braking area and return road, construct pit lanes, upgrade the staging area to national level, and install a new grandstand for spectators.

Warwick Dragway president Chris Loy said it was “unbelievable” to see the club’s plans come to fruition and fresh concrete poured at

the Dragway on Monday 13 September.

“It’s been 25 years in the making to go to the 1/4 mile,” Mr Loy said.

“It’ll allow us to have a lot bigger events, faster cars, and hopefully it’ll bring more people to town.”

Mr Loy said the new track will be completed and ready for racing in the new year, opening

the club up to host national events and thousands of spectators.

With about 90 per cent of competitors at the club’s meetings from out of town, and an average of 1000 spectators, the upgrade is likely to provide a significant economic boost for Warwick and the Southern Downs.

Emu Swamp Dam

PUZZLES ................................... page 23

Several things I can’t understand is the amount of time and money being spent on Emu Swamp Dam, if the money that has been spent since the first negative report was spent on the excellent site Marika McNichol pointed in her letter to the editor we might be well and truly on the way to drought proofing not only the Granite Belt but a large slice of country watered by Glen Lyon dam as well, furthermore this alternate site has two other benefits it would help mitigate the flood risk for Texas through to Goondiwindi, given the massive amount of water that flows through this area it could deliver a lot of much needed clean green power. I am led to believe that the site Marika pointed out is very close to the site that was suggested for flood mitigation for Texas.

Climate change is supposed to see larger and more severe drought, heat waves and other weather extremities, it has been said that Emu Swamp Dam won’t supply water for drought lasting more than three years, as a person with little formal education but several degrees from the University of Hard Knocks I know it would make sense to build a dam that would at least drought proof the district for now and well into the future.

One thing for certain is that the first Environmental Impact Statement was a dud it missed out a lot of plants and animals as others have pointed out, but the mere fact it missed what may have been Queensland’s first Uranium mine surely must jeopardise the whole project, just using the precautionary principle any educated person should have said enough is enough and closed the Emu Swamp project down.

2. Who are the “hidden” people involved?

3. What is the cost to all Southern Downs ratepayers?

no spin, straight forward answers from SDRC! Denis Kenny, Warwick

Don’t be POWty Dear POWters, Mr Morison and Mr Thornton (not anonymous), We’re sensing some anger in your responses. Good! For 30 years lots of money has been poured into this project from Government and Private Investors. Are they angry? You bet they are when small groups continually attack them, or hold things up selfishly. Mr Thornton demands the list of investors? For what means?

Is it to attack these people? Harass them personally? Still you add no substance to your arguments. Are you the best the POWters have to offer? Most probably.

The Community still awaits all your professional credentials. Do you realise? No you don’t... “COUNCIL WON’T OWN THE DAM.” They are customers only. So how will they be paying over run costs which won’t happen anyway? You cry about sarcasm, but you deserve nothing more for your constant attacks on anyone who shares a differing opinion to you or anyone that has facts.

Remember who was the sarcastic one that came up with “Emu Swamp Dam Brigade?”

Mr Morrison continually quotes from the Ghd report but still fails to acknowledge the Jacob’s report which is considerably more detailed by a long shot. And yet he also screams of a supposed political agenda.

The new Council voted in support of ESD. Even Councillors who previously didn’t have now. Was it a change of leadership?

You both fail to be taken seriously. At least the targeted Councillor achieved a week off from being a focus. All we see are the foot soldiers commenting. Who is the true leader of the pack? Will the real puppet master show their face? Probably not.

How many of the POWters actually live on the Southern Downs and pay rates? Mr Thornton is a resident of NSW. Why does he get to make such demands? Also a disgruntled Ex Councillor seems to have become very vocal on the letters to the editor. Funny how he quickly changed his mind in support of ESD once he used it to get voted in. If you choose to attempt another run maybe don’t campaign on what you don’t plan on following through?

It’s time for NEW WATER! It’s time for job security and food security for our Nation, the Granite Belt and Southern Downs.

Everyone get behind this project. Don’t let the few ruin it for the many.

On a final note from noisy POWter Geoffery - he he he ho ho ho ha ha ha! Real mature.

The editor’s desk This past week has been an incredibly difficult one for myself and the rest of the Warwick/Stanthorpe Today team, as we struggled to come to terms with the sudden loss of our former editor Jeremy Sollars. As my first editor, Jeremy played a pivotal role in my career and in my life. I was lucky to work under him, to observe his journalistic skills, experience and character, and to receive his advice. I will take the lessons I learned while under his guidance with me as I continue to grow both professionally and personally, and extend my deepest condolences to all who knew and loved him. Jeremy was a good and kind person, and I know he is missed tremendously on the Southern Downs.

I’d like to share with our readers that next week will be my final week with Warwick/Stanthorpe Today. I have loved my time living in Warwick, writing for Warwick/Stanthorpe Today, and getting to know so many lovely people in our region, but believe it is time for my next adventure. I will be moving closer to my family in Brisbane and starting with a new organisation later this month.

When I arrived in Warwick in November last year, I was not expecting to fall in love with the town like I have. I will miss my colleagues, the crisp air, the quiet evenings, the busy weekends, and so many people. Thank you to everyone who has supported me since my arrival, provided comment or background for a story, and made me feel so welcome. It is an honour to have been part of the Southern Downs community.

Dragway upgrade begins

By Jess Baker It was all hands on deck at Warwick Dragway this week, with upgrades to the facility’s 1/8 mile track finally underway after decades of advocacy.

The beloved club was awarded $1.9 million in federal and state funding late last year to extend its track at Morgan Park to the national standard 1/4 mile.

The funding will also allow the club to extend the dragstrip’s existing braking area and return road, construct pit lanes, upgrade the staging area to national level, and install a new grandstand for spectators.

Warwick Dragway president Chris Loy said it was “unbelievable” to see the club’s plans come to fruition and fresh concrete poured at the Dragway on Monday 13 September.

“It’s been 25 years in the making to go to the 1/4 mile,” Mr Loy said. “it’ll allow us to have a lot bigger events, faster cars, and hopefully it’ll bring more people to town.”

Mr Loy said the new track will be completed and ready for racing in the new year, opening the club up to host national events and thousands of spectators.

Picture: JESS BAKER average of 1000 spectators, the upgrade is likely to provide a significant economic boost for Warwick and the Southern Downs.

Mr Loy said he was grateful to Dragway volunteers, the local community, Southern Downs Regional Council, Mayor Vic Pennisi, CEO Dave Burges, and federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud for supporting the project.

“It’s just great, after all this time, to see that it’s happening,” he said.

Local companies like Brownlie Concretor and Southern Downs Concrete, and local labour, have been employed by the project and will continue to be used for its duration.

CEO Dave Burges said creating employment opportunities was important to the council when deciding which projects to put

forward for funding.

Long-term benefits of upgrading Warwick Dragway, such as increased tourism, were also taken into consideration.

Mayor Vic Pennisi said the “flow-on effects” of investing in the facility would be significant.

“Once this takes off, there’s potential mechanics, spare parts, tyres, fuel – all of those types of things will gravitate to these types of facilities,” Cr Pennisi said.

“Making grandstands and kitchens and food and all of those things will add value to what’s already here.”

Cr Pennisi said he was looking forward to attending his first drag meeting in the new year, after the 1/4 mile strip at Morgan Park is completed.

Maranoa MP David Littleproud announced the jointly-funded project in December last year, saying at the time that the Australian and Queensland governments’ aim was to support local economic recovery following the 2019-20 bushfires.

“The Southern Downs community has shown incredible strength and resilience through a very challenging year, so I am proud to see this funding go towards a meaningful project that will attract visitors to the region and boost the local economy,” Mr Littleproud said.

Technology gives Warwick students taste of the world

By Jess Baker With mere weeks between now and graduation, a group of Warwick State High School students are preparing for the ‘real world’ in an unconventional way.

The school’s special education program has recently received a Virtual Reality simulator from disability service provider Endeavour Foundation, and is using it to develop driving skills and confidence in students.

Four students in their final year at Warwick State High School showcased their new VR learning hub – including a computer, VR headset, and VR driving kit complete with a steering wheel and pedals – on Thursday 9 September.

Riley, 17, said the program had helped him immensely in gaining confidence and proficiency on the roads.

“It’s really helped me learn how to drive, use the indicators, select the gears, accelerate, brake and use the clutch,” he said.

“It’s made me a lot more confident behind the wheel.“ Now, with a learner’s permit and a parttime job he’d like to drive to, Riley is more determined than ever to hone his driving skills.

Head of Special Education at Warwick State High School Kathy Maudsley said the school was proud to be able to help him on that journey.

“In a rural town like Warwick, public transport isn’t readily available and driving is

Year 12 WSHS students Tegan, Riley, Leanna, and Tori demonstrated how they used the VR system to improve their driving skills.

“The program is an important addition to our classroom and has helped students practice driving and gain confidence on the road, and further develop their independence.”

Member for Southern Downs James Lister, who attended the program launch on Thurs-

day, said the initiative would open plenty of doors for the Warwick students.

“When you talk about Virtual Reality and training for driving, that is a fantastic thing because a lot of young people find difficulty in meeting the expenses of driver training,” he said.

“And if you haven’t got a driver’s licence it

really narrows down your employment opportunities.

“So anything that can be done to help youngsters become more proficient, and more confident, and want to pursue driving, that’s great.”

Speaking on behalf of Endeavour Foundation, David Blower said the unveiling of the school’s new VR hub was symbolic of the organisation’s commitment to bettering the lives of people with an intellectual disability into the future.

“Our message is very clear: that people with an intellectual disability deserve the same rights, same access, same education, (and) same life skills as everybody else in the community,” he said.

“Getting ready for life after school can sometimes be daunting, but this is where the Virtual Reality helps make that transition a little bit easier.

“You can learn things in a safe, controlled environment before you actually have to go out into the real world …”

Endeavour Foundation’s VR tools, whilst designed for people with learning disabilities, are usable by anyone, and have been integrated into various classes at Warwick State High School.

As well as driving skills, the program – funded in partnership with Arrow Energy and a grant from the Gladys Myrtle Brown Charitable Trust – can be used to develop warehousing, travel safety, and general life skills.

Tributes paid to colleague

By Jess Baker Tributes have flooded in from across the Southern Downs and beyond following the sudden death of former Warwick/Stanthorpe Today and Southern Free Times editor Jeremy Sollars.

Jeremy was an adoring father of four and grandfather to one, a brilliant journalist, and a good man.

He was kind, funny, and generous with his time – I know this because he was a mentor to me, as well as my first editor.

Jeremy was the first person I met in Warwick. He interviewed me for my current job, he showed me the ropes of journalism, and he encouraged my curiosity.

He had an innate ability to understand the topics that mattered to his readers, and would go to great lengths to report them honestly and accurately.

He was considered by many to be one of the best journalists the Southern Downs had ever seen.

I’ll never forget, in the very early days of my career at Southern Free Times, sitting at my desk, mulling over single words in a story for far too long.

Meanwhile, Jeremy would spend all of 10 minutes pounding on his keyboard and produce an eloquent and compelling 1000word lead.

His devotion to his work and inherent journalistic capabilities were and are inspiring. I know I am not alone in my admiration.

Colleagues and friends remember Prior to being editor of Southern Free Times, and later of Warwick/Stanthorpe Today, Jeremy was editor of Warwick Daily News.

Former general manager and editor-inchief of Warwick Daily News Peter Read appointed him to the position years ago, and remembers him fondly.

Peter said: “Jeremy was a courageous, talented and inspiring Warwick Daily News editor.

“He was popular with the team and never afraid to challenge issues where necessary, regardless of the consequences – a great example of a very effective country editor.

“I am proud to have given him his first job as an editor and he more than fulfilled my expectations and was a pleasure to work with. He will be sadly missed.”

A professional acquaintance and friend of Jeremy’s since first meeting at Warwick Daily News in 2007, Phill Le Petit of Star News Group, said Jeremy’s passing was an “incredible loss” to the newspaper industry.

Phill said: “A man who continually fought for right as a journalist. Would not find a more persistent individual to source out the facts regarding a story. His work area reflected this with papers printed out everywhere, reports on this and documents on that.

“The same could be said for his desktop computer with all manner of files loaded across the entire screen. It was his way, it worked for him and undoubtedly returned the result. Award winning stories and championing the people’s cause to expose stories and keep an unaccountability ever present.

Jeremy was a devoted and much-loved father, grandfather, journalist, mentor and friend.

“Your humour, talent and the ability to keep confidences amongst your reader will be missed. I am a better person for knowing you than never meeting, rest in peace.”

Phill, who also currently serves as Queensland Country Press Association president, said Jeremy’s ethical professional skills and belief in the role of community newspapers had been acknowledged in the QCPA’s annual Media Excellence Awards the past six years.

“He was honoured with successive Journalistic Excellence Awards as the Best Individual Journalist in 2018, 2019 and 2020, as well as awards for news and sports photography,” Phill said.

In paying tribute to his work, the Excellence Awards judges said Jeremy showed a high degree of empathy with his readers, and his ability to deliver stories that were relevant to them demonstrated a persistence to stay with an issue that he and his newspaper believed was important for his community.

Whilst editor of Southern Free Times, between 2017 and 2021, Jeremy led a small editorial team.

He worked closely with journalist Tania Phillips, now seniors and special publications coordinator at Star News Group, for several years.

Tania said: “My ring tone for Jeremy was Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog – not my first choice, my first choice had been Thank God I’m a Country Boy. He didn’t directly tell me he hated that one – there was just that very Jeremy pause when I mentioned it.

“He used that pause to good effect to convey disapproval without actually saying it. I changed it that day. Bullfrog was met with a slightly more positive ‘not the first time that song’s been sung to me’ though I complained that really all I really got was almost a minute of applause when he rang. ‘Rightly so!’ he deadpanned.

“Yeah it probably was rightly so but I was never going to tell Jeremy that. He was a complicated man but brilliant people often are and he was that too, dedicated to his work and his people, writing about other people’s demons but also fighting his own.

“I worked with him on and off for four years – really two stints at the beginning and end of his time with our paper. The second time, I would like to think we became friends and often when he was watching his son at training in Toowoomba we shared long conversations talking about, work, life and everything.

“I loved his sense of humour, dry at times and then descending into silliness. We had a lot of serious conversations, but it was when they descended into fits of giggles (often mine) that he was at his best. He rang me one afternoon, I was driving and he was on speaker and we ended up laughing so hard that I had to pull over. My daughter drove the rest of the way.

“When he started at the Times (Warwick Stanthorpe Today), he spent a lot of time apologising for taking my job but I said I’d just been caretaker waiting for the right person to come along to build the paper and to chronicle the lives of the people of the Southern Downs.

“He was the right person. And he’ll be missed.

Jeremy was awarded Best Individual Journalist at the QCPA awards in 2018, 2019 and 2020 whilst editor of the Free Times.

“Jeremiah was a Bullfrog, was a good friend of mine.”

At the time of his passing, Jeremy was working as a reporter for The Daily Journal.

The paper was founded by the former publisher of Southern Free Times Dr Olav Muurlink and edited by Elizabeth Voneiff.

Olav said: “Jeremy and I had been sparring partners in a news sense since the day he arrived at the Daily News in Warwick, so it was let’s say ‘interesting’ when he was assigned to write the story about my company going into liquidation.

“He had a way of getting the story—part persistence, part professionalism, and part simply by being real, being humane, and being on the receiving end of a piece of Jeremy journalism, was interesting.

“He made a painful process less painful. He showed mercy. When he came to work for the Daily Journal it was just so strange having him there—in a good way.

“I learnt something new—his consumption of calories was colossal –when I was in the office, I was often able to live off the scraps of biscuits, cakes and chocolates off Jeremy’s plate. He brought a good energy to the newsroom, and I guess that energy had to come from somewhere.

“Elizabeth loved working with him. His local knowledge was immense, and while his methods were mysterious—he would stare at his phone for hours thoughtfully, and then suddenly pump out a thousand words in a jackhammer concerto—but he always delivered.”

and friend Jeremy Sollars Government representatives reflect Jeremy cemented himself as a trusted journalist and a prominent member of the Southern Downs community in the 15-odd years he lived in Warwick.

He forged professional relationships with many, but he was a friend – a confidant – to even more.

Member for Southern Downs James Lister was one such person. He said: “As our MP, I knew Jeremy as a professional and fearless journalist. But as someone who lives in our community, I also knew him as a friend.

“These two states, reporter and mate, are supposed to sit awkwardly together in the world of journalists and politicians. For how can an honourable gamekeeper be the poacher’s friend? In Jeremy’s case the answer is simple. He was both a great journalist, and a great guy.

“Jeremy was a pro. There’s no doubt about that. It was his patient and meticulous devotion to a story – that dogged commitment to uncovering the facts and exposing wrongdoing – which made him such a formidable force for the public interest. I can honestly say that he never shrank from asking me the tough questions, and when the answers were embarrassing, or the facts unflattering, he reported them anyway.

“But here’s the thing: I still liked him. I sincerely admired him. Jeremy was a great guy and I enjoyed our conversations voraciously.

Jeremy was a hero and mentor to my young son, also named Jeremy. The two of them hit it off, and now thanks to Jeremy my son wants to be a journalist. Because of Jeremy, my son has a purpose. When I became yet another veteran with mental health demons, I could talk with Jeremy about it. Jeremy understood. He just understood.

“There was a touching kind of fairness and integrity about Jeremy’s journalism. He was modest and deeply quiet, but in his own way, he burned for the public good. Jeremy never had a big opinion of himself, but there was iron in his soul. No intimidation, retaliation or bullying, however vicious, would deter Jeremy from doing his job. In spite of the toll that these things took on him personally, Jeremy would always put the story front and centre, and never once did I see him use his position to tackle personal grievances or to highlight the dirty tricks being applied to him.

“Our community will not be the same now that we don’t have Jeremy. We are, all of us, terribly sad for his passing. But I’m sure that he’s somewhere up there in heaven, pencil tucked in his ear, notepad at the ready, asking Saint Peter about his travel expenses.

“Vale Jeremy Sollars.”

Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi also came to know Jeremy well over the years, particularly since being elected to the top job in 2020.

The mayor said: “It was an interesting conversation just after the 2020 election, after campaigning on rebuilding relationships with the media, I found myself sitting in my office with Jeremy. I am not sure he was totally comfortable being there but when I asked him ‘how long had it been since he was in the Mayor’s

It was never a surprise when Jeremy was named journalist of the year at the QCPA Excellence Awards.

“It became a regular occurrence every week on a Thursday he would sit across from me and ask his probing questions, often knowing that the answer was not as forthcoming as he would like it to be, but also knowing that if it was able to be released to him he would not need an RTI request to get it. I am sure he appreciated that. For me personally, it gives me great comfort that I was able to restore the relationship with him and bring it to a level that we were both respectful of.

“I pause and think of some of those memorable moments in my office, such as when I suggested that he might look to use the paper for more positive comments, which of course he denied ever being negative. I reminded him that the media was a great way to sell the community to the broader public and that we all had a role in this, and that we should collaborate more in this area. Whilst there was a level of denial on the matter, I can honestly say that the public noticed the difference in the weeks following.

“I reminded him on more than one occa-

sion that, even though I disagreed with him at times, I felt that he was a talented writer and one of the best the region had seen. He would use these opportunities to dig for information, a small comment this week would result in a story in a few weeks’ time. He was never afraid to ask those questions that were not able to be answered.

“He would ask that probing question with a grin hoping for the ever so slightest glimmer of a small snippet of information that he could build on. He would often ask ‘now, off the record’ grinning the whole time to which I would reply ‘Jeremy you know there is no such thing as an off the record conversation’ and I would continue by adding ‘it’s like me asking you who the leak is from Council’? To which he would invariably reply, ‘I understand’ and grin.

“There were many who saw Jeremy as a ‘hack’. I am grateful that I was able to have those frank and fearless discussions with him and that he didn’t need to use RTI requests to do what he needed to so that he could get the information that held us to account. That was his role, he did it well, I respected that and he

was aware that I did. My life is richer as a result.

“Jeremy formed part of the tapestry, part of the coat of many colours that defines Southern Downs. He will always be part of our history and his valuable contribution to our region will be remembered. My sincere condolences go to his family and friends, during this sad time. A life lost too soon with much more to contribute.”

Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud said: “The Southern Downs community has suffered a significant loss after the sudden passing of our well-known and respected journalist, Jeremy Sollars. He cared deeply for his community and was dedicated to its improvement and unity.

“Jeremy didn’t shy away from tough issues.

Yet he also had the compassion required to capture the human element of the stories he covered diligently for many years while Editor of the Warwick Daily News, Stanthorpe Border Post, and Southern Free Times.

“More recently, as a senior journalist with The Daily Journal, Jeremy continued his passion for unveiling the truth behind the story.

“I am deeply saddened by the loss of Jeremy and extend my heartfelt condolences to his partner, children and extended family.

“He was a part of the fabric of our local community; he will be remembered fondly and greatly missed by all who knew him.”

OUR team at Warwick/Stanthorpe Today, and indeed the entire Southern Downs, have been left devastated by the sudden loss of Jeremy Sollars.

He will be immensely missed.

Rest in peace, Jeremy.

Hero’s welcome for Matt

By Dominique Tassell Excitement levels were high when Allora welcomed hometown hero Matthew Denny back home on 10 September.

Balloons lined the street in Australia’s green and gold, with homemade signs hung on on locals’ homes and in business windows.

The atmosphere was electric as locals lined the streets to cheer Matt on, with his family gathered outside the Allora Hotel.

Matt was driven through the parade from the Allora Sports Club down to the Allora Sports Museum.

Allora local, Jill Bockman, said Matt has “done very well for himself”.

“He’s a really dedicated young man,” she said. “He’s done us proud.”

She said “he never gives up” and is a wonderful role model for local kids.

“He comes up really well in all aspects,” she said.

Southern Downs Regional Council members were in attendance, including Mayor Vic Pennisi who presented Matt with a certificate of recognition to honour his efforts.

The Mayor joked that if Matt brought home a gold in 2024, he’d get the key to the city.

Mayor Pennisi said Matt “breathes hope” into the community after a tough period of drought, Covid-19 and more.

“You breathe hope into the community for now and into the future.”

Allora Sports Museum curator, Perry Cronin, was also presented with one of the certificates for posterity.

Matt spoke outside the sports museum, first thanking everyone for their support.

“For me, it’s pretty incredible that I got fourth and still have the amount of support that’s been shown.”

While he usually speaks off the cuff, he had prepared a few words.

“It’s hard to talk at the moment,” he said.

This was evident as he spoke, becoming overcome with emotion at times.

“I just want to say I honestly can’t believe the parade and the hugs and the wishes and the high fives and just the general support in everything that I’ve done since I started.”

Matt stated he wanted to share a story about why he’s so proud to be from Allora.

“As you may all know, my brothers were great footballers. My dad probably sold half the people here a car in his local business, and my granddad and uncle owned a local silo business that took over Queensland,” he said.

“I was so proud when I used to walk down the street and tell everyone who my family was, the best part was when people used to say to me ‘aren’t you John Denny’s boy?’ or ‘hey, you’re Jason’s little brother, how’s Jason going

after getting sin-binned on the weekend?’

“A lot of people used to say I had a lot to live up to but I always thought I used to have a lot of people to look up to.

“Living in the shadow of people I admired, and that were family, wasn’t something I was afraid of. If anything they gave me the opportunity to learn and to grow in the shade before I walked into the sunlight.

“So I want to say thank you to mum and dad, Mia, my family, and those who I looked up to when I was growing up and thank you for still being those people in my life today.

“I’m so grateful for this parade being planned for me today, for placing fourth, it makes me so much prouder that I’m part of a community that supports me win, lose, or draw.

“You’ve all said congratulations to me, but I want to say congratulations to us because

this was a group effort. Without the support of you all in something that I wanted to achieve, I never would have made it past Darling Downs trials.

“So thank you for all your support, your effort in this parade, and your love.

“You make me love what I do so much more and you make me even more proud to call this place home “But most of all, thank you for always referring to me as John Denny’s boy.”

Matt said afterwards that it’s hard to put into words what it means when a whole town comes out to support you.

He says the whole experience has been crazy, and he wants to say a massive thank you to everyone who has supported him.

For Paris ‘24, he thinks the town might just have a “street party” in celebration.

Call to hand in guns

Bubble is back along the border

By Dominique Tassell A leading Warwick firearm dealer has backed the Crime Stoppers Queensland Illicit Firearms Campaign, joining forces to reduce the threat of illicit firearms falling into the wrong hands.

Crime Stoppers has partnered with Downs Guns and Ammo to promote a permanent national firearms amnesty, visiting Warwick on Thursday, September 9, as part of a state-wide regional road trip.

While Australia has some of the toughest gun controls in the world, regional and rural property owners can be at an increased risk of their unsecured firearms being stolen and used in criminal activity.

Downs Guns and Ammo owner, Chris Thompson, said the store supported the amnesty by helping members of the public dispose of unwanted firearms.

“I think the amnesty is a great way to help keep firearms out of the wrong hands and them being used for criminal activity,” she said.

“In the first few days we had six firearms handed into our store, but I would encourage more people to come forward.

“It’s not about taking guns off people, it’s about ensuring they are registered.”

As of Thursday 9 September, the store had a total of eight firearms handed in through the amnesty.

Downs Guns and Ammo’s other owner, Peter Thompson, says three out of five guns handed in are “junkers”.

Chris says “we had a gentleman who found an old rusty gun in the roof of his shed“.

“He didn’t know how long it had been there but decided to do the right thing and hand it in.

“This is a common occurrence where people find an old firearm on their property and have no purpose for it or are unsure if it’s registered.”

Chris and Peter did say that this amnesty being national has made it slightly different to the last one in 2017, as every state has different laws and the new amnesty has had to fit them all.

They stated that they would like some elements of other state systems to be included in Queensland.

In Queensland, firearms dealers can’t check themselves if a firearm is flagged in the system.

Victorian dealers can do this, and they say it’s “better to know than not know”.

Crime Stoppers Queensland CEO, Carmen Jenkinson says the amnesty is “a work in progress” and “a workaround until the legislation catches up”.

John Vichie Firearms in Stanthorpe are participating in the amnesty, though they are not listed on the website.

They weren’t aware they weren’t listed until recently.

“We’re certainly participating,” they say.

The business say they’ve had a “small number“ of people handling in firearms through the amnesty.

By Jess Baker

Chris and Peter Thompson.

They say “some people don’t want to be involved because its lots of paperwork and you have to destroy the firearms yourself, but that’s certainly not us.”

He says “often people find old guns and don’t know what to do with them”.

Crime Stoppers Queensland CEO, Carmen Jenkinson said “the fight against gun crime is stronger than ever and by joining forces with the Warwick community and surrounding regional towns, we can all play our part in keeping our towns safe and reducing the risk of illicit weapons falling into the wrong hands”.

“During our regional road trip, our key focus is to educate the public on the threat of unwanted, unregistered and illicit firearms in our communities.

“Our message to regional Queenslanders is to keep your firearm licence current, ensure all of your firearms are registered and keep them securely stored.”

Australia has estimated 250,000 long arm and 10,000 handguns that are either unregistered or unable to be registered, as well as prohibited firearm accessories.

“Firearms are often kept in innocence and ignorance of their illegality or simply overlooked and forgotten in people’s homes,” she said.

Carmen says 973 firearms have been provenance checked so far in the state, with 26 firearms of interest.

“Our focus in Warwick and surrounding regional towns is to educate the public on the threat of unwanted, unregistered, and illicit firearms and encouraging residents to hand in these firearms so that they cannot fall into the wrong hands.

“Firearms, like the ones handed in to Downs Guns and Ammo, are often kept in innocence or simply overlooked and forgotten in people’s homes.

“There are occasions where someone might have Grandad’s old gun in the back shed, have received a gun from a friend or family member, or a firearm is legally registered but no longer needed.”

Unregistered firearms pose a serious a threat to our local communities because they are difficult to trace and can fall into the hands of criminals. The amnesty provides an opportunity to safely dispose of a firearm without cost or penalty.

Crime Stoppers participated in a national firearm amnesty in 2017, which saw 57,324 firearms handed in along with 2,432 parts and accessories and more than 80,000 rounds of ammunition. During that campaign, a number of machine guns were handed in, including a WWII Sten and a Russian-made sub-machine gun, as well as a flare gun converted to shoot 12-gauge ammunition, a rocket launcher, and an anti-tank bolt action rifle.

Being caught with an unregistered or illegal firearm outside amnesty conditions could result in a fine of up to $66,725, up to 13 years in jail, and a criminal record.

Carmen wanted to emphasise that crime stoppers is not trying to make all guns disappear.

She says they understand that people have legitimate reason to own guns.

The organisations’ focus is on “no penalty if you take steps”.

Locations confirmed to be participating in the amnesty in our region: Daniel Alfred Johnson in Rosenthal Heights Warwick Outdoor and Sports and Downs Guns and Ammo in Warwick Redback Precision Equipment at The Summit John Vichie Firearms in Stanthorpe If not included on this list, check with your local dealer to find out if they are involved in the National Firearms Amnesty.

The NSW-Queensland border bubble is once again in operation, meaning Queensland residents and some NSW border residents can cross for essential purposes, including work, volunteering, and face-to-face learning.

From 1am Monday 13 September, vaccinated people from non-restricted local government areas in the NSW border zone can also travel to Queensland to collect food, access medical care, provide assistance, and donate blood if they have a border pass.

The 12 LGAs in the border zone classified as non-restricted include Tenterfield Shire, Glen Innes Severn Council, and Kyogle Council.

People may not travel between NSW and Queensland to attend a wedding or funeral, to exercise, or for recreational purposes like holidays or meeting friends.

Those who have been in a restricted NSW border zone LGA, such as Bourke Shire, City of Broken Hill, and Walgett Shire, or any other Covid-19 hotspot in the last 14 days are also not permitted to cross the NSW-Queensland border.

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said her government was happy with how the border bubble had been reinstated and that vaccinated people could cross to complete essential work and attend school.

Also from Monday, all Queenslanders aged between 12 and 15 years old can be vaccinated at Queensland Health vaccination centres.

Stanthorpe and Warwick locals who received their first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine at a vaccination hub in August will this week and next week receive their second dose.

Queensland Health data indicated, as at 27 August 2021, 53.9 per cent of people aged 15 and over on the Southern Downs had received their first shot of a vaccine and 22.3 per cent had received their second.

As at Sunday 12 September, a total 22.8 million vaccine doses had been administered nationally.

Nearly 69 per cent of people over the age of 16 had received at least one dose of the vaccine, and 42.6 per cent of people over the age of 16 were fully vaccinated.

At the time, Queensland had administered the third highest number of vaccines at 3.98 million, behind NSW at 8.17 million and Victoria at 5.88 million.

Platypus out in numbers

By Jess Baker After a weekend of surveying Cambanoora Gorge, a local group has discovered a surprisingly large paddle of platypus is living among Killarney residents.

Organised through Killarney Bushcare, group member Barbara George-Jaeggli said the survey of platypus at the Gorge on Sunday 5 September was the first of its kind and produced exciting results.

“We had 16 different pairs of people sitting at different places along the river at the upper Condamine, going into Cambanoora Gorge,” Barbara said.

“We ended up seeing 15 different platypus.”

Barbara said that while the group’s findings indicated the local environment was habitable for platypus, changes will have to be made to increase their chance of breeding success and of survival. “(Our concerns are) they’re secretive and shy animals, so disturbance is something they don’t like,” she said.

“Increased traffic from four wheel drives, and the sediment they bring up, is a concern.”

She said drought was also a major threat to local platypus as although the Condamine River never used to dry up, in the last 25 years she had seen it nearly stop running two times.

Climate change and people pumping out of the river were also listed as two of the group’s biggest concerns.

“We really want to raise awareness, not only because they’re threatened, but also because they’re such a nice thing to have in our midst,” Barbara said.

She said Killarney Bushcare would like to

Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) selected Killarney to get its own Urban Design Framework (UDF) at the Council meeting on 8 September.

Killarney UDF approved

By Dominique Tassell Killarney Bushcare’s Barbara George-Jaeggli said she was surprised to find so many platypus at the weekend. see traffic around the Gorge regulated, and Condamine River Road used less by four wheel drives and more by mountain bikes and the like.

“We’re also looking in to getting some funding to do a conservation project,” she said.

More than 40 people attended an information session with Killarney Bushcare and Platypus Watch at Killarney Senior Citizens Hall on Saturday 4 September to learn about protecting platypus, which are considered a near-threatened species.

Barbara said she and the Killarney Bushcare team were amazed at attendance on the day and locals’ interest in the topic.

“We would like to repeat the survey, make it every six months, and make it a real community initiative,” she said.

She said tracking numbers at the Gorge more frequently will help the group understand the threats and challenges platypus currently face in Killarney, so that they can work to eliminate them.

Killarney is set to get its own Urban Design Framework (UDF) after it was selected at the Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) meeting on 8 September.

Wallangarra, Leyburn, Maryvale, Dalveen and Pratten have previously had UDFs developed.

The aim of the UDFs is to “consider how to support industry and tourism growth in line with the town’s unique character and location”.

Southern Downs Councillor and small towns advocate, Sheryl Windle, said Killarney’s UDF would play to its strengths and build on its existing tourism clout and country charm.

“Our region is home to some very special towns with unique appeal only found on the Southern Downs,” Councillor Windle said.

“Killarney has already positioned itself as a must-see location through its gorgeous nature walks, key tourism events and country charm and a strategic UDF will pivot from these qualities.

“With Killarney’s proximity to South East Queensland and the News South Wales bor-

der, the town is also well positioned to see growth in the transport and logistics, and agriculture sectors and for those seeking a tree change.

“Council will collaborate with the proud Killarney community to capture its vision for the future.”

Killarney’s UDF will be completed in the 2021/22 financial year and dates for public consultation will be announced in the coming months.

The UDFs are an initiative of the Shaping Southern Downs Advisory Committee, which is currently on “pause”.

Meetings have been deferred until Council has an opportunity to review the purpose of the advisory committee and its terms of reference.

While on “pause”, the UDFs already passed by Council will continue to go ahead SDRC CEO Dave Burges assured Council late last month that funds had been budgeted for those projects.

Councillors Sheryl Windle and Marco Gliori have expressed that they would like to see other towns in the region, such as Ballandean and Allora, get their own UDFs.

A focus on defibrillators

By Dominique Tassell Through tragedy, Jenny Thornton became educated in the importance defibrillators play in the chain of survival.

Almost five years ago, her husband passed away from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA).

“Danny was a young healthy male and SCA was the last thing we ever expected to happen to him,” she says.

“Now after much research I am aware that heart disease can occur at any age and fitness level for many different reasons, 40 per cent of which are not lifestyle related.

“Four young Australians die every week from sudden cardiac arrest.

“No prior symptoms, no warning of anything wrong and in five minutes they can be gone.”

Jenny says she had taken CPR courses consistently over the years, but didn’t know the importance of having access to a defibrillator.

She says having a defibrillator “could have changed everything”.

Losing Danny spurred her on to help make a change.

With the help of the “generous community”, the Warwick Westpac Bank, and “hardworking organisations like the Pentathrun, Warwick Woodcutters and Sunrise Rotary Club”,

26 clubs and organisations in the community have been supplied with a defibrillator.

Jenny says “from the awareness that we have raised, other towns and communities are supplying their clubs and organisations with life saving devices”.

“We had the pleasure to receive a call that after our initial campaign, a friend raised funds to supply their school with a defibrillator, which did save a life.

“How great is that!”

Jenny says this has all been possible due to clubs and organisations that have received a defibrillator paying it forward, “and by a community of people that support our mission”.

She says that she knows “a lot of people are frightened about using defibrillators or hurting people”, but getting training can alleviate these fears.

She encourages locals to attend training courses, including those held by Pentathrun.

Defibrillators are “super easy to use”, she says, with some even voice prompted.

Jenny says it’s important to get the use of a defibrillator into your “survival pattern”.

“Learn to run for the defibrillator,” she says.

If anyone would like to get involved, or would like to know more about purchasing a defibrillator, Jenny says they can contact her directly on 0412 283 097.

Through tragedy, Jenny Thornton, became educated in the importance defibrillators play in the chain of survival.

Action aplenty at Sprints The 25th anniversary Leyburn Sprints, commemorating the 1949 Leyburn Australian Grand Prix, lived up to its reputation as one of the most popular events on the historic motorsport calendar over the weekend.

A desperate last effort clinched a fourth outright win for driver Warwick Hutchinson.

After duelling all weekend, Hutchinson trailed rival Brett Bull until he crossed the line on his ninth and last run around the 1.0 kilometre Leyburn street course.

Bull, driving a Van Dieman single-seater, booked his best time of 42.365 seconds on the ninth run and with a margin of 0.189s looked set to win his first Col Furness Memorial Trophy.

But Hutchinson, next in line for the start, flung his Mazda rotary-powered OMS28 around the track in 42.271s to claim his first Sprints victory since 2013.

“This trophy is close to my heart. I’ve been up here several times and it’s good to be back,” he said.

“Brett was in front most of the weekend and it was a really close battle. That was very satisfying to beat him on the very last run.”

Sprints President Tricia Chant said that although competitor numbers were down

slightly without interstate entries due to Covid-19, the event provided plenty of action and entertainment.

“We’ve faced some challenges in the past couple of years after having to cancel the 2020 event and postpone this year’s by three weeks, but there was no sign of that at the weekend – everyone seemed to have a great time,” she said.

Tahlia Wilkins, 6, won our colouring competition and received a gift pack which included two hats, a shirt, stickers, and tickets to the sprints.

She is a year one student at Warwick Central School.

“She was so excited,” says Tahlia’s mum, Kylie.

Tahlia’s favourite car was the pink car driven by a woman.

Tahlia’s grandad, Stephen Wilkins, entered the first ever Leyburn Sprints and participated in the 15 following it.

He also participated in Formula Vee. On both sides of the family, Tahlia has car enthusiasts.

“Cars are kind of in the blood,” her mum jokes.

For the full gallery, see our article online.

Austin Powers and Felicity Shagwell brought their vintage car with them to Leyburn from the Gold Coast.

Jim Hodgson from Brisbane said his 1964 car was nearly as old as he was.

William’s weekend

By William Lister, Age 7 On the weekend Mum and Jeremy and I went to Jeremy’s piano lesson with Mrs Chapman and then we went to Jamwork’s for lunch and I had the best chicken curry ever in my life.

The rest for Saturday was pretty boring and Dad was away in Goomburra. On Sunday Dad drove back to Stanthorpe really early and went to the spring stampede early in the morning and then we finally got to see him after he had been away.

Then Dad, Jeremy, Nonna and Dan Dan and I all went to the foxbar falls open day which I’d been waiting for all day. It was really great and Dad said he’ll take me camping there maybe on the holidays.

Following a heated discussion at an ordinary meeting of Southern Downs Regional Council, and months of public speculation, Mayor Vic Pennisi announced he would no longer be asking his colleagues to approve his ‘innovation mentoring program’.

Here’s what some of our Facebook readers had to say about our breaking story sharing the news: Al Holmes: Not every idea is a good idea and not every good idea is accepted but gee its refreshing to have a major that listens and acts unlike the big stick “invasive pest program” from the last council.

Nathan Parkes: Al Holmes agreed. A refreshing change.

Nathan Colyer: (Referring to a 2 September Warwick/Stanthorpe Today article titled ‘Secrecy surrounds group’ in which Councillor Stephen Tancred criticised the transparency of a former council) Councillor Tancred hit the nail on the head. Pot calling the kettle black?

Dennise McKenzie: Nathan Colyer they were as transparent as mud Nathan Colyer: Dennise McKenzie yep.

Lots of secret squirell business coming out we didn’t even know was going on.

Geoffrey Pittard: Old boys club and secret mens business alive and well in this community. Liberally nasty party as usual.

Dad took our kayaks in the back of his ute and Jeremy and I went kayaking and we found a rocky island in the middle of the dam and I fell in but it wasn’t deep and I had a life jacket.

Mum was at a violin rehearsal at the art gallery all afternoon. When Mum got home from her violin stuff we had a BBQ for dinner on the back patio which we haven’t done for ages and then Dad had to pack and go back to Brisbane for Parliament.

On Monday we got dressed up in pink and purple to show support for our friend Santina who is in hospital. I hope Miss Santina feels better soon. The photo is of me dressed in pink and purple for Miss Santina.

Also published on our Facebook recently, was our story about a NSW woman who appeared before the Warwick Magistrates Court over breaches of Covid-19 border rules.

Police reportedly located the 49-yearold woman at a Warwick home in late August.

Some comments from our Facebook readers: Bob Mundy: Is this the best use of Police (and Court) resources? Over 150 deaths on Queensland’s roads so far this year; shouldn’t reducing that toll be the priority?

Caitlyn Meiklejohn: Bob Mundy there will be 150 deaths from covid if they don’t stop people entering the state without proper declarations. So I’d personally say it is a great use of police resources.

Bob Mundy: Caitlyn Meiklejohn Really?

It’s inevitable that Covid will eventually rip through Queensland just as it has done elsewhere; get everyone fully vaccinated and very few will die. Then deploy similar measures and resources on making our roads safer!

Caitlyn Meiklejohn: Bob Mundy I somewhat agree but in the mean time until we reach 80 per cent + vaccination of Qld then we need to stop covid coming in from other states. Maybe then we can focus on deaths on the road.

COVID-19 has affected all of us, but there is a way forward. It’s time to arm yourself by getting vaccinated. Protect yourself and the people you care about.

The sooner we all do it, the sooner we’ll get through it.

Book your vaccination today.

Sellers’ market persists

By Jess Baker More than 19 months into the Covid-19 pandemic, Warwick’s housing market is still red hot.

Local agent Helen Harm said property prices were continuing to increase with demand and were unlikely to stop any time soon.

“It is insane,” Helen said.

“I think that market price here has probably gone up $30,000 to $50,000 at least.

“I can’t see it stopping this side of Christmas.”

Helen said the current market was ideal for sellers who already had their “ducks in a row” and were ready to vacate their home almost immediately.

Homes must, as always, be value for money and well-presented, she said, not ‘fixer-uppers’.

“Odd jobs … get them done,” Helen said.

“The people with the money who are buying are time-poor. They want to walk in and unpack, or they want to buy a house (that is already tenanted).”

Helen said that while she would in ordinary non-Covid times have more than 100 properties for sale, she currently has less than 30.

Demand for Southern Downs homes is so high she has had to start listing properties for sale at the end of her work day – these days, around 7pm – so that she can take a breath before the sale process begins.

“If you’re looking for a property and you haven’t got your finances in a row – so if you haven’t sold your house and it’s not on the market, you haven’t been to the bank and you’ve got to get a loan – don’t go looking because you’re wasting your time,” she said.

“You’ve got to be prepared to sign a contract there and then.”

Helen said cash buyers were common and properties often settled in between 14 and 30 days, so non-serious buyers were unlikely to find a home in Warwick through any agent.

Available rental properties are also few and far between at present, with Helen Harm Real Estate currently assessing more than 20 applications per listing.

Helen said the surplus in demand and shortage in supply meant prospective tenants had to have near perfect records to be considered suitable by local agencies.

“If you’re a tenant who has missed paying rent, you’re not going to get a rental,” she said.

“If you’re a tenant who hasn’t looked after the property, you’re not going to get a rental, (and) if you have more pets than is councilaccepted, you won’t get a rental.”

She said it was now both cheaper and easier to buy than to rent. Though really, the current market is “definitely a seller’s market”.

Stanthorpe’s own hero

By John Telfer, History Writer On 3 September 1939, 81 years ago, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain declared war on Germany over their invasion of Poland, and from 10 July 1940 to 31 October 1940, the historic Battle of Britain was fought over the skies of England defended by the bravery of the pilots and aircrews of the Royal Air Force.

In this conflict the Royal Air Force lost 900 fighter aircraft, 560 Bombers and 500 Coastal patrol aircraft. This caused the British Government to appeal to the Dominion countries to help defend the Empire.

The Australian government responded by introducing the British Empire Training Scheme to help Britain in her hour of need and hundreds of young Australians took up the cause and enlisted in the Royal Australian Air Force. However, there were about 12 expatriate Australians living in England who joined the cause, and enlisted in the Royal Air Force.

One young man from Stanthorpe who was resident in England at the time, Charles Alexander McGaw, was quick to enlist and joined the RAF on 13 June, 1939, just as the Luftwaffe were bombing England.

Charles McGaw was born in Pebbleshire, Scotland, on 3 November, 1915. He was the son of William and Agnes McGaw, and when Charles was only aged five, William and his family moved to Stanthorpe on the Southern Downs, Queensland, in 1920.

It was here that Charles received his early education at the Stanthorpe State school, before he was enrolled at Scots College from 1928

to 1930. Charles was never a stand out at Scots as a boarder, but showed a keen interest in music and drama.

On leaving school after obtaining his Leaving Certificate, Charles worked in the family accounting business but was not inspired by this, so decided to explore his Scottish heritage. He noticed an advertisement in the newspaper that Glasgow Technical College in Scotland was offering a Bursary to prospective students to take up an Engineering course, so he applied and was accepted.

Charles took up the Bursary and did very well, scoring first place out of 600 students with an average of 87 per cent in his first-year examinations. After graduating from Glasgow Tech, Charles secured a position as a draughtsman with Duncan Stewart Engineering Company in Clyde. Now settled in Scotland, Charles met and married a young woman named Margaret Turner who lived in Paisley, Renfrewshire, and settled down to married life.

Charles was always interesting in flying, so successfully obtained a position as an aeronautical instructor with the Air Ministry.

With the imminent threat of war, England was preparing for conflict with Germany and were calling on enlistments in the services, before the first bombs started to fall over London.

Wanting to do his duty to King and Country, Charles enlisted in the RAF on 3 June 1939 for pilot training, and was immediately sent to RAF Cranwell where he gained his ‘wings’. He was commissioned as a pilot officer and posted to 73 Squadron to train and fly Hurricane night fighters. The squadron’s main role was to

but suddenly he encountered extremely bad weather. In a forced attempt to fly around the gathering stormy Charles McGaw. weather, Charles’s aircraft ran out of fuel and he was forced to ditch in the sea.

In the ensuing struggle to keep airworthy, Charles crashed into the sea near Messina, but there was only one survivor in Walter Fulton, who suffered terrible injuries. Charles and his navigator were trapped in their aircraft and so sank to a watery grave.

Charles Alexander McGaw died a hero’s death in the service of the RAF and his name is remembered on the Malta Memorial with the caption “Known unto God”; but although he died under a foreign sea, Charles never forgot that he was also an Australian flying with the RAF, and in his documents and personal effects to be sent to his next of kin after his death, it contained a copy of the “Clansman”, the Scots College ex-students news- letter as he had never forgot his days there.

After the war, Charles’s wife Margaret made a sad visit to Charles’s beloved Stanthorpe, to bring her son to meet his grandparents. A son that brave Charles never met. So, Stanthorpe has the distinction of producing a hero of the Battle of Britain who survived this great conflict and will go down in history of one of the “few” as stated by the British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill in 1945, when he made that famous speech: “Never in the history of human conflicts Was so much owed by so many, to so few”

provide cover over allied airfields and bases.

In April 1940, Charles was sent on to No. Six Operational Training Unit at Aston Downs in Gloucestershire, situated in South-West England, which was one of only two squadrons to fly Hurricanes.

Such was the high casualty figures for pilots, Charles was moved around various RAF airfields. On 13 May, Charles was posted to France with 73 squadron before moving back to Biggin Hill, near London to fly spitfires against the Luftwaffe.

On 8 December, 1940, Charles was given a rest from combat duties and posted to the RAF Central Flying School, at Cranwell, as a flying instructor. He remained in this position until early May 1943, but eager to get into a combat squadron, he applied and was sent to undergo a conversion course on twin engine Douglas Boston aircraft and on completion of this training he was posted to No. 18 Squadron in the Mediterranean.

He was also called on to provide air cover for the British evacuation from Dunkirk.

In July 1943, No. 18 Squadron was moved to Gerbini, in Paterno, Sicily, where he was now facing a new foe in the Italian Air Force in August, 1943. On 1 October, Charles, now a Squadron Leader, set out with eight other Boston aircraft with orders to attack a bridge in Italy.

Charles was flying a Boston III W8398 ‘G’ aircraft with a crew of three which included Flying Officer John Spark, navigator, and Sergeant Walter Fulton, the wireless air gunner.

Charles took off across the Mediterranean,

The leaders at the half-way point in the Club Pairs Championship are John Nankervis and Pat Kelly on 66 per cent, followed by Hilary Richardson and David Moran on 63 per cent with Tony Hinde and Neil Bonnell in third place with 60 per cent.

On Board 9 (above) Pat and John managed to make eleven tricks in 4S by West, a result that eluded all other E/W pairs, although Jenny Smith and Jill Smith did bid game and made ten tricks.

John (declarer) received the lead of the Queen of diamonds which he won with one of dummy’s top diamonds. It happens to be best if the King of spades is continued from dummy, challenging South to rise with the Ace. A cagey South would play low, but when North’s Jack falls, the way is open for some cross-ruffing.

First, the King of clubs would have to be played. North would routinely win with the Ace, but now has a choice to make. A club would be fatal for the defence, so the Jack of diamonds would be better. This would be won by the King and a third diamond played.

Councillors debate advisory committee voting rights

By Jess Baker Southern Downs councillors have criticised a decision made earlier this year to remove the voting rights of their representatives who sit on advisory committees for pest management, saleyards, and local road safety.

An amended policy and amended terms of references five different council advisory committees were tabled at an ordinary meeting of Southern Downs Regional Council on Wednesday 8 September.

The item was intended simply to be “procedural”, according to Mayor Vic Pennisi, but prompted debate among councillors.

Councillor Cynthia McDonald said that as

a councillor representative on numerous advisory committees, including the Saleyards Advisory Committee, she believed she had a right to vote.

“My question to my colleagues around the table is: who has the right to discern which particular advisory committees may or may not have voting rights?” Cr McDonald said.

Councillor Jo McNally said she agreed councillors should be afforded voting rights, otherwise she couldn’t see the point of being on a committee at all.

“We’ve already heard Councillor (Stephen) Tancred talk about trust. Well, trust our fellow councillors and delegate them to attend these committee meetings,” she said.

“Really we should be going back to everybody being able to vote on those committees.

That’s democratic.”

She said Cr Tancred had taken many “hot shots” at herself, Councillor Sheryl Windle, and Councillor Marco Gliori in relation to them representing councillors on community grants and RADF committees, and she believed the council needed to review its representation on groups. “… I think it’s an opportune time to actually review that because I’m sick of having my integrity called into question,” Cr McNally said.

Councillor Marco Gliori said he would like all councillors to be able to sit in on all com-

mittee meetings with council representation.

“There are things that I have a genuine interest in that I would like to attend …,” he said.

“And that way it just makes it a blanket, open opportunity for councillors to sit in, not to participate, only as observers.”

All councillors voted to adopt new terms of references for the Pest Management, Saleyards, Southern Downs Road Safety, Shaping Southern Downs, and Stanthorpe 150th Anniversary Celebration advisory committees.

Mayor Vic Pennisi and council officers agreed to host an information session in October this year, where councillors can discuss – and debate – the topic further.

Day of the Species

By Kaz Thorpe, Arts Writer I met Carmel Killin sitting on the floor creating more displays for her Pop Up exhibition at Stanthorpe Gallery – Day of the Species which runs until 19 September.

This exhibition is the official beginning of an ongoing national community art project to prompt “conversations around Australia’s appalling record for biodiversity loss” and to instigate stronger national environmental laws.

Carmel is the instigator, designer and heroine behind the art activism display with an alarming message: as at June 2021, there are 1813 threatened flora and fauna in Australia.

The display at Stanthorpe Gallery features 32 threatened species that are specific to the local area.

It all began in 2020, prompted by a summer of “unprecedented fires” and what Carmel saw as a newly elected federal government out of touch with the existing and future environment.

This view was reinforced by the 10 Year Review of Australia’s environmental legislation which charged the Australia’s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC) as being weak and effectual.

She cut a 3cm x 7cm rectangle out of a

Designer, educator, writer, and activist Carmel Killin’s pop-up exhibition is on now. tea bag box and illustrated the endangered spotted-tail quoll.

Her aim was to illustrate all 1800 endangered species which would be displayed in an effort to engage viewers and create an experience where they too sought environmental change.

It has been slow road, including a global epidemic continually blocking Carmel’s plans.

Yet after a social media call out, The Field Nat-

uralists Club of Victoria got behind the project and really got it going.

Since then, “professional artists, designers, students, children, ecologists, park rangers, botanical illustrators, academics, fiction writers, therapists, climate activists and a dentist” have created 1813 illustrations of threatened species.

Walking into Carmel’s exhibition at Stanthorpe is overwhelming. One is blown away by the sheer scale of the potential loss of so much of Australia’s unique biodiversity and the beauty of the artwork. One is aroused to act!

Carmel suggests writing, even a line or two, to Susan Ley, Federal Minister for the Environment, asking her to act to save our exceptional and precious flora and fauna.

Specially, she hopes to touch local communities so they wish to “follow through in their own way.”

Carmel wants to travel the exhibition and make it an “all singing, all dancing” experience. I know she will be successful!

If you would like further information contact Carmel on carmelkillin@gmail.com. A short video about Day of the Species is available at https://youtu.be/aU2TWNF-uZ0.

Killarney steps forward with urban design framework

Want Sort-It Sally and Council’s waste collection truck to personally visit you and your family?

A new video/photo competition by Council is offering just THAT to one lucky household!

Bin collection day is a much anticipated highlight for some kids. The thrill of the big Cleanaway truck with its bright safety lights and beeps, cruising down the street, effortlessly lifting the wheelie bin off the ground with its Transformer-like arms and dumping the contents into its huge back-bin has a huge WOW factor. And Council wants parents to capture their kids’ excitement watching a ‘reallife-movie-in-motion’ these school holidays.

Regional waste warrior, Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said he looks forward the seeing the competition entries roll in, just like the waste trucks.

“Our waste mascot Sort-It Sally is a rock star in

the waste arena and she is hugely popular as the ambassador for our waste education program,” Mayor Pennisi said.

“I’m sure the opportunity to have her personally visit one lucky winner’s home will have kids and families snapping and filming away during the school holidays.”

Council reminds participants to watch and film entries from the recommended distance of 5m from the truck and the wheelie bin during collection. Children must be supervised at all times.

The rich history and natural beauty of Killarney will be celebrated after the town was selected as the next in line to be included in the Southern Downs Regional Council’s Urban Design Framework (UDF) program.

Following in the footsteps of Wallangarra, Leyburn, Maryvale, Dalveen and Pratten, Killarney’s framework will consider how to support industry and tourism growth in line with the town’s unique character and location.

Small towns advocate, Southern Downs Councillor Sheryl Windle said Killarney’s UDF would play to its strengths and build on its existing tourism clout and country charm.

“Our region is home to some very special towns with unique appeal only found on the Southern Downs,” Councillor Windle said.

“Killarney has already positioned itself as a must-see location through its gorgeous nature walks, key tourism events and country charm and a strategic UDF will pivot from these qualities.

“With Killarney’s proximity to South East Queensland and the News South Wales border, the town is also well positioned to see growth in the transport and logistics, and agriculture

sectors and for those seeking a tree change.”

SATURDAY

X-MEN: APOCALYPSE SEVEN, 9.25pm

The forces of good and evil are once more pitted against each other. The immortal mutant, Apocalypse (Oscar Isaac), is awakened after thousands of years and recruits Magneto (Michael Fassbender) and other mutants to create a new world order.

The cast includes Sophie Turner (Sansa from Game of Thrones) as a young Jean Grey.

SUNDAY

THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES SBS WORLD MOVIES, 8.30pm

From the director of Blue Valentine comes this melodrama spanning 15 years, starring Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes, along with Bradley Cooper and Ben Mendelsohn.

Mysterious Luke (Gosling) is a motorcycle stuntman who, upon returning to New York, discovers he has fathered a son with ex-lover Romina (Mendes). Desperate to provide for him, he turns to robbing banks and soon cop Avery (Cooper) is on his tail. Running almost two-and-a-half hours, this epic film has a dreamy feel, livened by its soundtrack from Mike Patton. While the plot is a tad thin and the ending perhaps over-the-top, the story is captivating.

TUESDAY

THE MASKED SINGER AUSTRALIA TEN, 7.30pm

Yes, they’re masked: but not in the way we’ve recently come to know it. A crazy concoction of fun and masquerade, this unique escape from reality features celebrities disguised as wacky and quirky creatures – including an angelic baby, a downright bizarre kebab, a creepy looking, sparkly volcano, and a marine-inspired mullet creature – in a singing competition that is sure to leave you spinning.

Their out-of-this-world garb is designed by Oscarwinning costume designer Tim Chappel, and the diverse guessing panel includes Dannii Minogue, Dave Hughes, Urzila Carlson and Jackie O, with Osher Gunsberg hosting. One peek, and you’ll lose yourself in the tomfoolery.

Flush with deeply flawed yet instantly engaging characters, this excellent series pulls the curtains tonight with its final episode. From the hustle and bustle of a Melbourne newsroom during a pivotal period of world and local news in 1986, the show has been packed with memorable moments from the headlines, but it’s the captivating mix of personalities that lingers. Tonight, will the intense and confusing relationship between newsreaders Helen (Anna Torv) and Dale (Sam Reid) be resolved? The chemistry between the co-stars is magnetic, but as frightening reports of a nuclear disaster in Chernobyl emerge, they finally face their truths.

Rural Links Bull goes for record price

By Perditta O’Connor A large crowd of buyers gathered at the Glenisa Angus on property sale complex at Glen Aplin last Thursday for the Wise family’s annual Glenisa Angus Bull Sale.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions there was also higher than normal interest from online and telephone bids.

The beef industry is currently on a high and that trend continued on Thursday with top Glenisa bull selling to a record price for the stud of $30,000.

In total Glenisa offered 37 bulls which sold for a 100 per cent clearance and to a new record average of $15,270 to gross $565,000.

The top priced bull, Glenisa K Monty Q179 is sired by Glenisa’s walking sire, Knowla Monty M186. Monty is a super long bull with a heap of red meat and a faultless phenotype, docile nature and excellent do-ability.

Before being transported to his new home at the DSK Angus Stud of Chris Knox and Helen Alexander in Coonabarabran, Glenisa K Monty Q179 will remain at Glenisa to have semen collected by the team at the Ced Wise AB Centre for use in Artificial Breeding programs.

It was very evident why the sons of Knowla Monty are in high demand and they featured prominently in the draft. The 16 sons of Monty sold for an average of $16,937.

Glenisa Angus offered a mix of two year old and yearling bulls in the 2021 sale. Included in the draft of two year old Bulls was the top priced bull. The draft sold to an average of $16,535. The nine yearling bulls sold to a top of $15,000 twice to average $11,333.

Stud principal and Glenisa spokesman, Aaron Wise said following the sale that Glenisa Angus is extremely grateful for the support and spirited bidding by the large number of local producers. Bulls sold to local buyers Michael McMeniman, Brian Hopgood, Michael Cusack, John and Marg Arnold and John Passmore.

David Crombie’s Aruelian Pastoral, Montrose, Warwick was one of the volume buyers of the sale securing four lots including the two top priced yearlings, Glenisa Lotto R008 and Glenisa 316 Stunner R012.

There was a mix of new buyers and solid support from many repeat buyers. One of the repeat buyers, Richard Cameron of Mirradong Meats purchased three 24 month sires for an average of $20,000.

In 2020, Cameron purchased 30 yearling

Lot 3 Glenisa Monty Q180 goes under the hammer, sold to the Nobbs family, Yendabarra Cattle Co for $24,000. bulls privately from Glenisa and has been impressed with the performance of these bulls in his breeding program.

Other repeat buyers included Stuart, Steffanie and Tom Nobbs of Yendabarra Cattle Co who selected four 24 month to average $20,000.

Ronald and Veronica Howson, Miles Qld were successful in purchasing lot 33 for $17,000 while another strong supporter of the Glenisa Stud, Doreen Edwards of Glencoe NSW purchased the final of the yearling bulls offered for $9000.

New Glenisa clients including Sally Harper of Harper Rural Holdings, New Koreelah showed strong support and were successful in securing the second heaviest bull in the draft, Glenisa K Monty Q165 for $26,000. Q165 weighed 924kg and scanned 127cm EMA, 12mm P8, 8mm rib and 6.7 per cent IMF. Mr Wise expressed his gratitude and sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to making the 2021 Glenisa Angus bull sale such a success and thanked the successful purchasers and underbidders for their support of the Glenisa Angus program.

“We wish the purchasers every success with their new sires,” he said following the sale.

He also acknowledged sponsors Wilshire and Co, Elders and Boehringer Ingelheim for kindly donating prizes for purchasers of the top priced bulls and volume buyers.

Aaron Wise reserved his final word on the sale for the “amazing team” at Glenisa Angus, saying, “We have a small but dedicated team at Glenisa who all pitch in, helping in every area of the sale.

“Without their efforts this sale would not be possible.”

A total 142 head sold for a top of $4400 to average $2250.

Australian Whites sell for a $4400 top at Stanthorpe

By Jess Baker This year’s Springdale and Keilah sale at Stanthorpe was a huge success, with all 142 Australian White rams selling for a top of $4400 and an average of $2250.

The sale, held at Stanthorpe Showgrounds on Friday 10 September by selling agents TopX, Elders and Ray White Livestock, saw 100 per cent clearance for a total $318,000.

TopX agent George McVeigh said a third of sales, 52 lots, were made on AuctionsPlus.

The Australian Whites available at auction were offered by Helen and Murray Schroder of Keilah at Inglewood and Mark and Angie Davey of Springdale at Stanthorpe.

Volume buyers on the day included Andrew and Lara Finlay of Pikes Creek, Lachlan Finlay and his mother Janine of Inglewood, Millmerran Rural Agencies, and Maroo Pastoral.

The sale topping 105kg Springdale ram went to David and Michelle Murray of Meandarra, who purchased six head on the day.

George McVeigh said the run of rams at

Selling agents Elders, Ray White Livestock and TopX handled the sale. the sale was “magnificent”.

“Since we started five years ago, they have improved every year,” he said.

“This year was an outstanding run of rams.”

Last week’s sale was the first time he had seen all rams presented sold.

With 150 registered bidders on AuctionsPlus, 37 bid cards filled out on the day, and plenty of repeat buyers, George said it was obvious people were really starting to like the produce.

Regenerative agriculture

By Helen Lewis, Ag Columnist Over 100 people gathered at the Stanthorpe Civic Centre for a forum on regenerative agriculture.

GBSAN Chair Rick Humphries explained the role of Granite Belt Sustainable Action Network is to be a change agent. Facilitating new ideas and practices that are more sustainable. We need to encourage collaboration not competition. An open mind is one of the most important thing we can all cultivate. This forum is just the beginning of promoting further dialogue for more involvement and further discussion in regenerative practices for the Southern Downs region.

The following report is from the forum with my own additions in thinking and ideas.

From the forum It is clear agriculture needs to be front and centre to improve the climate change as farmers hold the key to stable sequestering of carbon dioxide - their soil. Green plants and trees grow from carbon dioxide and create carbon in their structures.

When these are processed back to the soil by grazing and manure, then we start to build carbon in the soil.

As Christine Jones puts it: for every additional one per cent of soil carbon sequestered, 168,000 litres of water could be stored per hectare, in addition to the water-holding capacity of the soil itself.

The power of sequestering carbon is such that if every farmer planned their grazing, used natural living processes, inputs and ensured ground cover with growing green plants… climate change would achieve net zero.

This is backed up by Christine Jones: “It is not so much a matter of ‘how much’ carbon can be sequestered by any particular method in any particular place, but rather, ‘how many’ soils are sequestering carbon. If all agricultural, garden and public lands were a net sink for carbon we could easily draw down sufficient CO2 to counter emissions from the burning of fossil fuels.”

Like farming or Agriculture, Regenerative Ag is not defined, however what makes a farm regenerative is management practices that intentionally enhance the soil biology – with natural biological processes. This intention maximises the natural function of the waters cycle, mineral cycle, diversity and sunlight capture.

The change imperative is gathering momentum. Farmers who are improving their soil biology are in the box seat to make the most out of the move that is on in all layers of our society as John Bennett from USQ highlighted the Federal and State programmes and funds that are available to facilitate the change in the farming community.

Policy settings: National biodiversity fund, Emissions Reduction Fund – carbon trading with methodologies. In Queensland, the Land Restoration Fund.

The Carbon Market does exist in Australia. Over the last three years various Carbon agents/funds and aggregators have established themselves.

Companies Woolies and Coles are advertising that they are

Green plants and trees grow from carbon dioxide and create carbon in their structures. becoming sustainable. They are responding to customers who are asking more questions about their food and how it is produced. They will be sourcing food from Sustainable and Regen Agriculture.

As a side note: if Woolies and Coles are serious about being more sustainable, the first thing they could do is accept food produced in any shape, size, and colour when it arrives from the farmer. The artificial production specifications set by Woolies and Coles on fruit and veg have created our artificial growing and production systems, where the soil is simply the medium for holding up the plant. Artificial fertilisers and chemicals are used to grow the food and combat the pests and weeds the monoculture causes, respectively.

In addition, these artificial quality specifications have perpetuated an unrealistic expectation by consumers of what ‘perfect’ is yet the same consumer would not think twice about eating an odd shape or twisted carrot from their own garden.

If Woolies and Coles accepted the produce how it happened to turn out this season, this would enable farmers the freedom to trial and transition to cleaner food production, as they would be free to deliver on their contracts with

what nature provided this season, rather than unrealistic product quality specifications. The Odd Bunch (the seconds deemed by Woolies) produce should be the norm!

Social license is the transparency by companies being able to tell consumers and customers. What they are doing and why they are doing it? Transparency in decision making and considering – people, environment and prosperity.

Consumer Power: Not only does every family need a farmer, every farmer needs a consumer, bank, insurance company, and the shift is coming from these sectors.

The popular phrase that if you eat, drink and wear clothes you are involved in Agriculture, but it doesn’t stop there. Three times a day, everyday as consumers – with every dollar we spend - we choose what kind of food production and fibre production we are going to support. Are we supporting regenerative, clean food and natural fibre production, or not?

It is worth remembering without farmers we are hungry, sober and naked.

It is clear agriculture needs to be front and centre to improve the climate change as farmers hold the key to stable sequestering of carbon dioxide - their soil.

This week on the farm

By Judy Barnet, Farm Columnist

Lambs at play.

The village have a week long festival of the Big Cow during which they will have daily shearing demonstrations and singer/songwriter/shearer Terry Arnold from Warwick will use my lambs for working dog demonstrations.

On Sunday the 19th a Concert featuring Brendan Walmsley, Ray and Sue Owen, Michelle Schneider and the Voll Girls promises to be an excellent day. The mini steam train “Mrytle May” will be running as will “Henry” to Model T Bus – taking visitors around the village. On the 19th, 22nd and the 26th there will be Bee Keeping demonstrations and a Farmer Innovation Display – the train and bus will also run on these days. I will be attending from the 22nd to the 26th, you will find me at the Animal Nursery so call in and say hi!

A while back I talked about the rogue goats I had bred and was having trouble catching to send into the sale. One of these goats had eluded yarding for two years. Well, I now have a finale to their story, the two worst culprits (including the one still wearing a halter) were finally caught by a very persistent Richie, loaded into the trailer and delivered to the Warwick Saleyards. That night I received a phone call from the agent saying the goats had escaped the saleyards – the Blue one was recaptured but to date the fat white wether is still on the loose.

My three fat heifers, Tess, Vicky and Varina have been letting me know it is time for me to find them a boyfriend. They are extremely vocal and upon spotting the neighbours cattle they run up and down the fence for hours hoping there may be a bull nearby.

I would like to use A.I. but I can’t find anyone willing to come out this far to Glenlyon.

So I am on the lookout for a Hereford, Speckle Park or Shorthorn Bull as first preference.

I sold my Shorthorn bull and herd due to the drought a couple of years ago and have not worried about replacing the bull as three cows is not enough to keep a bull happy.

What a cracker start to Spring with glorious weather, beautiful crisp mornings followed by warm sunny days and cool nights great for good sleeping. I have been up by 5.30am every morning enjoying the mist on the dam and the early morning chorus of birds. It truly is the best time of day.

This week has seen about 20 lambs born but unfortunately there have been several losses due to feral cats most likely. The losses have all been in ewes having twins and triplets.

A cat trap has failed to catch anything so far.

A couple of nights ago we went spotlighting, I figure I have the best job as the driver, I just jam the old cruiser in first gear and head off around the property in the cosy warm cab.

Richie and CJ are on the back with the spotlight and the rifle ready to shoot a feral cat or fox but this trip resulted in nothing.

Births, Deaths and Marriages I am proud to announce that the Marriage of Shirley Shropshire to Jimmy Baa-rnes earlier in the year has resulted in a splendid pair of twin girls, real b-ewe-ties are they! I have had a run of ram lambs this season so it was heartwarming to welcome these beautiful twin ewes into the world.

In Australia there are only 16 breeders of Shropshire Sheep with a combined total of approximately 300 breeding ewes. Of these flocks, the three longest running were established in 1891, 1906 and 1966 respectively – these three flocks have about half (150) of the breeding ewes in Australia.

The breed is the oldest registered pedigree breed in the UK and are known as a tri-purpose breed, producing excellent wool for hand knitters. They have excellent meat and great feed conversion. They are tree friendly, being small – medium size are good for orchards and vineyards.

They also make a good terminal sire.

My Anglo Nubian Milking Goat Noobi kidded last night with twin doe kids.

Anglo Nubians tend to have what is called “Bottle Teats” – big bulbous teats that are hard for newborn kids to latch onto and sure enough when I spotted them this morning on my daily circuit they had not had a drink from mum. They were slightly tucked up and their hair was standing on edge.

It must have been one of my quicker days as I was able to sneak up and grab the pair before they realised what had happened.

They screamed blue murder, lucky there were no guests in the cottage. An hour later I had mum and kids back at the house, milked the goat and bottle fed the twins. I will do this for a couple of days by which time they will be big enough to latch onto mum’s teats.

I have taken advantage of the beautiful spring days and got stuck into the garden trying to wrestle back garden beds from the jungle of weeds that has flourished with the wetter than normal winter. Friend CJ has been planting these areas as they are cleared so bit by bit the garden is taking shape again.

I am making preparations to take a menagerie of animals over to the Highfields Pioneer Village for a week during the carnival of flowers.

Livestock agent ROSS ELLIS of McDougall and Sons brings us an update on the local lamb and cattle markets from last week…

Livestock markets update Agents saw a small lift in numbers for the weekly sales as 576 cattle and 1351 head of sheep and lambs were presented by vendors for sale.

The cattle market was strong particularly for the light feed on and back to the paddock categories. Cows and steers as well as processing beef were all firm.

The sheep and lamb market virtually mirrored the cattle sales as restockers and feed on types were keenly contested. The trade and export weights whilst bringing a higher price per head are proving to be the best buying.

Cattle numbers Vealer steers averaged 593.3c to a top of 708.2c/kg or $1524.81 to $1942.47 Vealer heifers averaged 546.2c to a top of 614.2c/kg or $1370.93 to $1815.12 Feeder steers averaged 517.3c to a top of 590.2c/kg or $1966.89 to $2519.31 Feeder heifers averaged 449.2c to a top of 520c/kg or $1564.96 to $1976.00 Yearling steers averaged 509.1c to a top of 600.2c/kg or $1741.46 to $2087.97 Yearling heifers averaged 476.9c to a top of 574.2c/kg or $1538.12 to $1995.54 Steers averaged 457.9c to a top of 572.2c/kg or $2252.46 to $2926.32 Heifers averaged 402.8c to a top of 459.2c/kg or $1675.36 to $2734.52 Cows averaged 355.1c to a top of 382.2c/kg or $2047.59 to $3000.00 Bulls averaged 396.1c to a top of 614.2c/kg or $1872.15 to $3705.57

McDougall and Sons sheep and lamb report Agents (Wednesday 8 September) yarded 1351 head to the market with the market fully firm to a shade easier influenced by a larger percentage of sheep compared to lambs.

Top lambs returned $248 to average $184.32($7down), hoggets topped at $199 to average $183.32(par), ewes topped at $194 to average $133.63($7down), wethers topped at $210 to average $159.97($20down), lamb rams topped at $200 to average $163.43($9up), ewe lambs topped at $255 to average $207.48($22up).

The sale averaged $177.61 which was $8 down on (the previous) week’s sale.

The yarding was tilted more towards the light feed on and replacement types. The better processing weight lambs still attracted good competition.

SPRING has SPRUNG

202109051485_1-DL38-21

Get set for Gardenfest By the Stanthorpe Garden Club Have you been out in your garden recently?

Not just a quick frenzied dash up the front path – have you been for a really good look around your garden including out the back?

It has been proven by scientists that a spot of gardening, even on those cold, damp and grey days, will lift your spirits and warm you up. Gardening for pleasure is very beneficial for your health.

Gardening in the winter can be a bit of challenge when plants are looking tattered and weather worn. But spring is with us now and summer is not that far off, so it is an exciting time to be outside getting some dirt on our hands.

OK, good old mother nature sometimes brings a shower or two of rain on the weekends just when you have some outdoor time, but it is not difficult to find a sheltered spot to do some therapeutic gardening to chase away any blues. Even five minutes outdoors can lift your spirits, be it a short walk or a spot of gardening, and it will do wonders for your mental and physical wellbeing.

If you garden for pleasure, you may not be aware how beneficial this hobby is for your health. While you are preparing your garden plot to grow fresh veggies, or you are busy turning the compost pile, or doing basic gardening activities such as mowing the lawn or raking up leaves, you are actually doing a decent amount of exercise as well! It is far less expen-

sive than going to the gym for a weekly visit!

Just think of the relaxation you experience when working in the garden. Gardening is one of life’s few simple pleasures. It is the creating, the designing, the improving of our surroundings and the selecting from the vast array of plants and hard landscaping materials and subjects that entices us into this wonderful hobby of gardening.

Perhaps you are a little short on ideas for your garden? Then why not visit the 2021 Stanthorpe Gardenfest and Trade Fair being held in the Exhibition Centre at the Showgrounds, High Street, Stanthorpe on Friday 8 and Saturday 9 October from 9am until 4pm. Admission is free.

This is a tremendous opportunity to view the latest releases in garden plants which are totally tolerant of local conditions. Collect some inspiring ideas from the plants people and landscaping specialists or purchase a plant garden ornament to fill in that vacant spot in the garden.

Come along to the 2021 Stanthorpe Gardenfest and Trade Fair. You will be most welcome and we look forward to your company.

As an added bonus, think of the exercise you will gain digging all of those holes to plant your purchases when you return home to your garden.

Get your gardens ready for Spring Flower Show

By Warwick Horticultural Society 113 years ago in 1908 some local folk that were interested in gardening got together and formed the Warwick Horticultural Society.

Our current president Graham Gillam is proud to say that some of his forebears were among the founding members.

Trophies donated by these people are still being contested to this very day and the recipients each year are proud to be the winners of such longstanding competitions.

Each year the Horticultural Society aims to encourage gardening in the local area by

holding two Flower Shows, a Spring Garden Competition and the Floral Window Display.

With the possible exception of the Floral Window Display, these were started by the founding members and with few exceptions, have been held each year ever since.

Our very successful Autumn Flower Show was held in March and it is now time to get your gardens ready for the Spring Garden Competition and the Spring Flower Show.

The weather has been much kinder to us this year and the gardens around the area at the moment are a delight – in fact they are ‘bloomin’ beautiful’!

Granite Belt Wildlife Carer Dominic Ward caring for a possum.

Looking out for wildlife

By Stanthorpe Eco Expo

12513319-CG38-21

Aussie kids born in recent years wouldn’t know that the occasional wildlife sighting today is a far cry from what we older folk saw around as kids, even only as far back as the ‘60s to ‘90s.

Wildlife habitats and nature corridors are vital in keeping our feathered, fury and slithery friends safe, healthy and able to exist in great numbers for future decades to come.

Granite Belt Wildlife Carer Dominic Ward said: “I was obsessed with possums as a child.

Utterly. Totally. Every year I would diligently produce for whomever the teacher was that year an assignment on possums.

“Many years later, the family would experi-

ence the Applethorpe fire; we resolved to get involved with caring for our decimated local wildlife.

“On joining the Granite Belt Wildlife Carers Group, we were asked what species we would like to work with. I chose caterpillars. No, just kidding. The only choice for us was obviously possums.

“We work with mostly brushtails and ringtails with the very occasional glider. Our family gets so much satisfaction out of releasing a healthy possum back into the bush.”

Come see Dominic speak about ‘A garden for wildlife’ and you might just meet some furry friends at the Stanthorpe Eco Expo Saturday 25 September.

Garden Time

GARDENING

Beatrice Hawkins

Spring florals are on show Over the years I have grown many things in gardens in many different areas. I do particularly like growing vegetables and find growing food especially satisfying. I enjoy cooking and have made quantities of jams, pickles and preserves over the years.

At present I do not own a preserving kit, but for many years the ’Vacola’ bottles were regularly filled with seasonal produce.

I have lovely memories of preparing copious amounts of fruit with my mother and grandmother even before I started going to school and that’s a really long time ago!

When I married, my wonderful mother in law taught me to make and bottle large quantities of tomato sauce, pickles and relish as, among other things on the farms, they grew acres of tomatoes under contract to IXL for sauce production, so there was always a ready source of produce in season.

At present I am involved with cooking for the Warwick Community Van and from time to time we are given donations of home grown produce to use in preparing the Sunday night meals. This weekend I was given three home grown brown onions.

Now you may think that doesn’t sound like much, however, the total weight of these three onions was 2.5kg! The largest weighed over 1kg! Rarely, if ever, have I seen larger specimens!

I hope the gardener involved has some similar to enter in our Spring Flower Show between 8am and 10am on Wednesday 20 Oc-

Yellow banksia roses are rearing their heads in town, along with wisteria. tober for public display that afternoon and on Thursday 21 October.

All you keen growers out there, please check out your gardens and bring in some of your produce to make a great display in St. Mary’s Hall.

Flowers, shrubs, pot plants, vegetables there are categories for everything. Children and schools are well catered for with their own sections and we would especially like to encourage this next generation of gardeners to enter. I will be visiting the schools with entry forms!

The flower arranging section is always a delight and you don’t have to have grown what you use in this section! So put your artistic talents to work and enter.

My entries this year might be restricted to the herb section as they are flourishing at present, although the lavender is flowering beautifully at the moment also… I’ll have to wait and see what is flowering on the day!

Schedules are available as usual from Bryson’s in Palmerin Street, so pick one up, check it out and get ready to enter and help provide a great display of what can be produced in our area and community.

As I commented last week, the gardens around the area are looking wonderful with so many different things flowering. May bushes are a picture of white whether left to be arching sprays or trimmed into neat shapes and hedges.

It always amuses this small brain that ’May’ bushes bloom in August and September in Australia - a carry over from the fact that white settlement came from the northern hemisphere where May is spring.

Wisteria is blooming beautifully over fences and trellises also and the perfume in these gardens must be wonderful. A garden that I see each time I drive down town has the beautiful yellow and white banksia roses climbing up trees along with wisteria and it really is a picture to behold.

I doubt they intended for them to be quite so rampant but I really enjoy the sight.

The common African daisies are providing a great splash of colour whether white or the many shades of mauve, pink and purple. They are a most forgiving plant and come up regu-

larly every year once planted, and fill in spaces nicely.

The range of colours and forms available from the nurseries is intriguing and I will shortly succumb to some of the ’spider’ varieties and find a spot in the garden or a pot.

I have planted three different coloured tomatoes, green and purple climbing beans, peas and rainbow spinach in this last week and am preparing beds for melons, zucchini and cucumbers. Being limited by space and water is one of my regrets about living in town.

Deciding which varieties to grow is always a problem to me as I am intrigued by the selection available. I would really like to grow the shiny ’bowling ball black’ tomatoes that I saw in my niece’s garden in NZ a few years ago but have been unable to find seed available in Australia.

Just think how appetising they would look in a salad with the little bright yellow, green, red, orange and purple ones that are available?

Given unlimited space and water, I would grow them all!

Two things I am going to try and find room for this season though, are some of the multi coloured ’Indian’ corn that I’ve seen. Whether used fresh or kept dried for an interesting table arrangement, I would love to grow some.

The other is some of the intriguing coloured sunflowers and these will be started shortly as the ground warms, so I can have a continuing show from about Christmas on. Once again, space and water will be the limiting factor.

The Spin Old foes ready for Ashes As we count down to the end of the football season thoughts begin to turn to the upcoming summer of cricket and in turn the Ashes Series.

After a moment of indecision, the Poms have confirmed that they will be touring – big of them really.

However, it is the cancellation of the final Test in the series between England and India at Old Trafford that is currently raising eyebrows.

Former England captain, and now respected commentator, Michael Vaughan is not backward in coming forward with his views on the matter.

Hot on the heels of news of positive COVID 19 tests in the Indian camp came advice that the touring Team could not field a team for the final test.

However, it was later revealed that no players were affected. The positive tests coming from the coach and some of the support staff.

Vaughan makes a valid point that the Test could have been delayed a few days.

But wait, that was not possible as it would have had a domino effect on players preparing for the start of the lucrative IPL tournament.

Vaughan feels that Indian Cricket has by their actions placed greater store in the IPL than in Test cricket. He does make quite a valid point, but as they say in the classics, money speaks all languages and may even transcend pandemics.

Australian Cricket tragics will be hoping that there are no such hiccups during the Ashes series. Our biggest worry (aside from an out of form side and queries swirling around the future of the Australian Coach) is the recently announced news that captain Tim Paine has to undergo surgery for a bulging disc in his neck.

No pun intended, it is causing pain in his neck and left arm.

Medical staff are confident the veteran gloveman and captain will be fit for the Ashes which begin on 8 December. Australian cricket fans hope their diagnosis is correct.

Me, I am already counting down to the Gabba action.

- Casey It would be remiss of me not mention the tragic passing of our former Editor Jeremy Sollars.

His death came as a great shock to the entire Newspaper family across the Southern Downs.

I am sure Jeremy had no idea the high regard in which he was held by the Southern Downs newspaper community and the community in general. Both Perditta and I worked closely with Jeremy during his time at the SFT and the Warwick and Stanthorpe Today publications.

Perditta and Jeremy had crossed paths years earlier at the Border Post shortly after he moved to the district.

Jeremy was the first to admit that sport was not his forte however he was an outstanding journalist who loved nothing more than getting to the core of an issue no matter how deeply he had to dig. In fact, the deeper the better.

We extend our sympathy to his family and current colleagues at the Journal. Jeremy’s passing should serve as a reminder to us all that we should look out for each other. RUOK should be something not reserved for a particular day in the year. It should be a question more frequently asked.

RIP mate.

WARWICK LADIES READY TO LASSO GF The 2021 TRL season draws to a close this weekend with all grand finals to be played at Clive Berghofer Stadium on Sunday.

The Warwick ladies team will be flying the flag for the Warwick Cowboys on grand final day when they line up against the Gatton Hawks.

The Hawks booked their place in the GF after scoring a 30-10 win over Newtown at week36 TODAY Thursday, 16 September, 2021

The Warwick Cowboys Ladies side will be chasing Grand Final glory when they take on the GAtton Hawks in the grand final of the Toowoomba Sports Club TRL Open Women’s competition. The girls are expected to have plenty of support from the Cowboy’s teams and their supporters. end. Warwick had the wood on Gatton who finished at the top of the ladies table when the teams met in the Major Qualifying Semi Final.

Warwick scored a 16-12 win to move straight through to the Grand Final.

There was little between the sides on that occasion.

Each scored three tries, but the difference was the goal kicking of the Carly Cooper.

The Warwick ladies have had an excellent season and despite upsetting the minor premiers two weeks ago they will need to bring their ‘A’ game this weekend. Fullback Amanda Hinch is sure to play a big part in the result.

She has been one of the lynch pins of the Warwick side since the first ball was kicked in the comepitition back in April and is capable of inflicting punishment on any side on any day.

Molly O’Connell is another who has been a great contributor to the success of the side either coming off the bench in games or playing in the second row.

The goal kicking of Carly Cooper and Lisa Croft has been a real asset to the team throughout the season.

The introduction of the Women’s comepitition this season has been a winner for the TRL. It has proved a popular addition to the comepitition, and many have been pleasantly surprised by the level of skill and commitment shown by the girls.

The Warwick team has played well as a team over the course of the season and thoroughly

deserve their spot in the Grand Final. There is sure to be plenty of support from the Cowboys players and club supporters on Sunday. It will be an early start for everyone with the game kicking off at 11.45am. Good luck girls.

TRL GRAND FINAL SUNDAY Standing in the way of a spectacular end to the 2021 TRL season for the Goondiwindi Boars is a very determined and skilful Highfields side who brought down perennial grand finalists Valleys to book their spot in the big dance this weekend.

It is no fluke that Highfields have made it though to the grand final and they will be aiming to complete the Madsen-Rasmussen Trophy-A-grade double this weekend.

Although the Boars have dominated the A Grade competition this season and go into the game deserved favourites Highfields will take plenty of confidence from their recent performances.

In addition to a 34-12 win over Goondiwindi in the Madsen Rasmussen Trophy mid-season, the Eagles also had a round 14 win over their GF opponents. Should be a great game. Kick off is 3pm at Clive Berghofer Stadium.

In other grades Wattles and Gatton will go head to head in the Reserve Grade GF at 1.15pm. THE Under 18 Grand final between Dalby and Highfields kicks off at 10am TRL fans are in for a big day of grand final football this Sunday.

SMALL FIELDS BUT GOOD SCORES With a number of regular Stanthorpe Sporters playing other golf events last weekend there was only a small field to tee off with play on the back nine. The course looks in good shape and if scores are any indication it is improving following the long drought conditions and then heavy rain.

After an adventurous round the previous week, Gary Kirby discovered that being a bit more direct pays off so much so that he recorded the lowest score of the round. Kirby returned nett 29 and collected the winners prize. There were still a few wayward shots but two birdies in his round help ensure a winning round.

Terry Byrnes, normally a regular at the top of the Sporters leader board has been a little out of form in recent weeks but looks like he is turning that around.

His round of nett 30 last Sunday was good enough to put him in the runner’s up position. Ivan Juriss was one shot further back for a mention the run down.

Paul Armstrong played his usual good round, No surprise when he returned the lowest gross score (39) of the round.

This Sunday, Sporters play the front nine with tee off from 7.30 to 8am. The Stanthorpe club’s foursomes championships will follow after Sporters tee off, so all Sporters will tee off from the first tee.

Matt Waterworth had a great round returning a gross score of 71, one under the course par had a very good round in which he returned a gross score of 71, one under course par, to give him a winning score in the men’s section of 39 points. His round included four birdies and it is good to see Matt back in the form we know he is capable of. Not too far off the pace was runner up Lyle Bryant with a score of 37 points. Bryant has been practising diligently on web sites to improve his game. He may just have found one that works for him.

Leanna Clarkson was named the Redbacks Volunteer of the Year. Leanna is pictured doing what she does best – attending to an injured Redbacks player on the field.

In the Ladies event, Helen Jones had another good round recording a winning score of 32 points. Following a countback Lisa Stuart edged out Lyn Ludlow to claim the runner’s up position after both ladies returned 31 points.

Lyn Ludlow settling for a position in the run down.

David Reeves was another who had a fair day out. He collected the pin shot at three, the pro-pin at 1/10 and a ball in the run down.

Barry Hughes collected the pin at 12, a birdie included, and Matt Waterworth held the pin at 17.

The remaining pro-pins went the way of Ian Harvey at 5/14 and Scott Constable at 9/18.

Lisa Stuart held the ladies pin shot at 12 and Helen Jones at 17.

The Birdies nest at 13 was shared by Scott Constable and Mick O’Brien. Others featuring in the run down included Ivan Juriss (36), Jacob Steele (35) and David Reeves (34) in the men’s division and Marie Cook in the ladies division.

The ladies have been playing match play events of late and two matches were decided during the day’s play. Nikki Waterworth and Lorraine Evans had to go to the 19th hole before Nikki was successful, one up over Lorraine. In the other match, Linda Kelly had a win in her game against Lyn Ludlow.

The Club and players appreciate the sponsorship of Marie Cook (men’s event) and Mandy Benussi and Lyn Ludlow (ladies’ event) Saturday.

The foursomes championships for both men and ladies will be played this Sunday, 27 holes of alternate shots. Play begins at 9am after Sporters have hit off.

GREENS RUNNING FOR TURKEY TRIPLES The greens at the Southern Cross Bowls club were running much better last week as the club hosted the Monthly Turkey Triples. It was unfortunate that not all clubs in the region were able to field a team however the company was good, the bowls good and the conditions ideal but for the odd strong wind gust across the green.

The “Girls” from the bush were back in town, Tannymorel players, Rhonda Cox, Jean Callum and Myrtle Wagner.

Runners-up were the team comprising of Geoff Davis, John Johnson. Unfortunately, the news for them at the end of play was not great finishing last overall but all was not lost as they took away the fabulous meal voucher donated by the Criterion Hotel. was not but were unfortunate to be last on the overall points score, however they were able to take away fabulous meal vouchers donated by the Criterion Hotel.

(Enjoy the meals ladies).

The winners, taking home the major prize money were Bill Lee, Barry Ziebell and Kim Hankinson. Bill seems to be able to take the correct amount of grass (greenkeeper), with Barry setting the bar (providore), and Kim knows how to roll a ‘jaffa’ or two (orange bowls).

The runners-up Geoff Davis, John Johnson and Clark Davidson were encouraged by the constant compliments from Cheryl “Wicky” Wickham for showing great style.

Marion Skaines, Peter Ridgewell, Kev Mooney, Jean Callum and Lyn Collie did not go away empty handed they all had some luck in the raffle.

Again the bowlers and the club extend their thanks to the greenkeepers, bar and kitchen staff and other volunteers who combined to make it another great day.

In Thursday’s game, Kev Seaby, Daph Cross and Barry Frame had a narrow win over Cate Gardner, Norm Olsen and Val Gray. The score 9-8.

On Sunday, Rob Francis lamented that he had wasted his time when he and Brian Bourke -could only tie 17 all in their game against Cita Weier and Val Gray.

SOCIAL AND COMPETITION ROLL ON A mix of social and competition bowls were played in the past week at the Stanthorpe Bowls Club.

Luisa Girgenti Helen Jones and Brian Brown proved too consistent for opponents Val White Ernie Jones and Mark Wicks when they played three bowl triples last Wednesday. The final score 20-7.

Dot Rankin and David Rose took on Robyn Rose and Ray Rankin in a game of pairs.

Rankin and Rose out played their opposition.

The final score 19-6.

There was another heat of the Club selected triples championship played midweek and it proved be to a thriller. Helen Jones, Dot Rankin and David Rose were defeated 21-18 by Len Girgenti, Ray Rankin and Wendy Hurnall in a close game.

On Saturday bowls two games of three bowl Triples were played and another of the heats of the Club selected triples championships.

In the first of the three bowl triples games Bruno Stefanon, Ernie Jones and Frank Gallo just pipped Val White Peter Smith and Brian Brown.

The score 19-17. In the other game it was all honours to Cathy Stefanon Steve McLean and Len Girgenti who totally out played Joanne McLean, Dot Rankin and David Rose. Apparently, the actual score card was lost in the wash or did the dog eat it? We will never know.

The club welcomed Steve and Joanne McLean, visitors from Elliot Head Bowling Club. Visiting bowlers are always made welcome at the Club.

Tom Hodgson Robyn Rose and Mark Wicks had a narrow win (16-13) over Len Girgenti Ray Rankin and Wendy Hurnall in the heat of the Club Triples.

There are still some heats of the Triples championships to be decided so which teams move on in this comp and who the finalists might be remains anyone guess.

Bowlers who have not played for some time, are reminded it is a great time of the year to be on the green so if you are “getting that feeling” why not come head on down to the Stanthorpe 38 TODAY Thursday, 16 September, 2021

The daily event was won by Helen Jones.

Helen Jones was Nearest the Pin on 12 and Linda Kelly on 17. Lyn Ludlow held the approach on the 5/14 and also won the putting competition.

Casey O’Connor The Golf players were out in force the next day perhaps drawn onto the court by the beautiful conditions. Kim Foster (3) and John Colman with a hefty score of 11 scored a well-deserved win over Jennifer Gleadhill (4) and Bev Sullivan (5). Gleadhill scored two jump shots while Foster was excited to score her first ever jump shot in the game. The two Shirleys (Evans and Page) teamed up to play Di Wren and Liz Ellway. Page scored five hoops and Evans added another two, but it was not enough get the pair the win as Wren (7) combined with Ellway (6) for a winning score.

After the break Wren played well scoring 11 hoops, one with a jump shot, while her partner Evans added two hoops. This time their efforts were good enough to give them a decisive win over Page (4) and Foster (3). In the final game, Sullivan (2) and Gleadhill (5) were out-played

by Ellway (3) and Colman (7).

The Gateball group take over the court on Fridays and six players enjoyed four games of Gateball last week. Gateball is a little different to the other Croquet disciplines. The games are timed, and each is 30 minutes in duration.

The White team (Les Williams, Joy Newman and John Colman) played well in the opening two games against the red team of Jenny Tunbridge, Heather Widderick and Grace Howard. In game one Whites scored a 19-10 win after three Agaris were scored. In the second game Whites continued their good form. Four Agari’s in this game saw them home again with another 19-10 win.

After the break things turned in favour of the Rd team (must have been the cup of tea that did it). Tunbridge, Widderick and Howard played much better losing to their opponents by just one point. Game four finished in a draw handing honours on Friday to Les Williams, Joy Newman and John Colman.

PLENTY ON FOR WARWICK GOLF CLUB MEMBERS Saturday Warwick Golf Club members played in a single stableford event and with the big foursomes championships on the next day over 36 holes we had a smaller field than usual.

31 players contested the event and the winner and a comfortable one at that was Ray Dudley. Ray returned an excellent 41 points, two more than the runner up in Matthew Hartwell. Phil McEvoy (38), Peter Millard and Ted King ( 37) featured in the run down.

The pro pin on 13 went the way of Jon Pearson (3 balls), Charlie Morrison (2) and John Patterson (1). Mal Galloway took the NTP on five while Scott McLennan won the seventh and Ted King the ninth. Charlie Morrison was on song at 11and Peter Millard 16. Plenty of repeat names there amongst the winners.

The Foursomes Championships on Sunday was sponsored by Greg and Maria Carey and the club thanks them for their support of the club. Greg and Maria played in the event and had a very good first 18 but faded on the second 18 holes.

Kris and Melanie McLennan won the event after missing out the previous year. They are multiple winners of the event. On Sunday the pair had 74 gross on the first 18 and 78 on the second finishing clear winners. Congratulations to both Kris who is the current reigning club champion and Mel who was recently selected to represent the Darling Downs in the celebrated ladies Med Nunn event. Simon Macdonald and Sam Hinze were the runners up after rounds of 77 and 84.

Garry and Margaret Adcock won the best net for the first 18 and Liz and Eamon Cockram won the second 18 net and also the best dressed couple looking resplendent in their

orange shirts a la Rickie Fowler.

Overall best net winners were Darrel Bain and Lisa Weatherley. A popular win as Lisa is only a new player and this was her first trophy win.

Next Saturday members play in a stableford event and the men’s 36 hole foursome championship is on Sunday. This event has gross and net trophies and also incorporates the Coe Cup. The club Captain has issued an email regarding scoring etc in this event so make sure you read that prior to hit off.

NRL FINALS FUN AND GAMES The NRL season is thundering towards the Grand Final. Final’s football inevitably goes to the next level and we last week fans were not disappointed. There were a mix of exciting riveting and sometimes spellbinding matches all served with a side of spice. They should have sold tickets to the Benny and Ivan press conferences which were as exciting and revealing as some of the on field entertainment.

I reckon the NRL should just contract Wayne to throw in a few hand grenades here and there next season if we don’t see him in a coaching role – Life in NRL land might be pretty boring without him.

The Sea Eagles went into their game against the Melbourne Storm soaring and came out the other side looking like forlorn feather dusters. If you are a Manly fan, take comfort in the fact that it would be hard for them to play any worse this week when they face the Roosters at Stadium Mackay on Friday night. The game kicking off at 7.50pm.

While the Sea Eagles will be looking to bounce back beware the Roosters with fullback James Tedesco and halfback Lachlan Lam keen to showcase the new spine combination.

The Sea Eagles will just be hoping that Tommy

recharges the Turbo.

On Sunday the Eels cannot afford to look backwards to their Round 25 humiliation at the hands of the Panthers at Cbus stadium.

The Panthers are short, priced favourites to win but must pay close attention to their discipline.

The Bunnies gave the comepitition the blueprint to defuse the Panthers last weekend.

It will be up to King Gutho, Mitchell Moses and the troops to see if they can turn the tables in the battle of the West. This game also to be played in Mackay with another 7.50pm kick off Which ever way you look at it and no matter who wins or looses the big winners are the Mackay Rugby League fans as were those in Rockhampton and Townsville. There should be more of it.

Casey’s Tips: Sea Eagles to fluff their feathers and the wounded Panthers to claw their way to the Prelims.

COMMONSENSE DECISION That unusual commodity Common Sense has prevailed and the power brokers at the NRL have listened to the public and rescheduled the timing of the second Preliminary final featuring the premiership favourites Melbourne Storm and their yet to be decided opponent on Sunday 25 September.

The game was scheduled for a 7.50pm kick off at Suncorp Stadium which would have clashed with the AFL grand final played in Perth.

In a decision where the wishes of sports fans were for once put first, the small change to the NRL schedule will provide the best outcome for not just Melbourne fans but those in all States.

Well done Andrew Abdo, Peter V’landy’s and of course the all-important broadcasters.
