Mary said the gallery has “always punched above its own weight”, and the “nest egg” that is the centre of the debate is the reserve they’ve established by being frugal in recent years.

Stanthorpe Regional Art Gallery is full steam ahead as they prepare to open their new exhibition, Then | Now | ART : 150 Years of Stanthorpe’s Creativity.

The official opening of the exhibit will be held on Friday 11 March at 6pm, and the gallery will return to regular hours from Saturday 12 March after closing earlier this week to prepare.

As long as people have lived in the Granite Belt, they have looked for ways to depict the world around them. The region’s Indigenous people used art and songs to tell creation stories, guide their way across their country and record their history. Art is prolific in our place.

Long before and in the last 150 years, there have been many forms of art: music, dance, photography, painting and more. This exhibition charts our art history through time.

What a week. I don’t think Emily and I have stopped working for about 16 days at this point. But we had an absolute blast at the Apple & Grape Festival.

One of my favourite parts was stopping people at the festival for photos or meeting them at events, and hearing them talk about how great our region is.

Because yeah, it is.

I’m really proud of this issue, and how we’ve highlighted some of our fantastic local women and their stories. We were absolutely inundated with suggestions of local women we should interview, and couldn’t possibly fit them all in this week’s edition. We’re currently brainstorming ways to include them in the paper, or possibly even our magazine Southern Living. We might have to do a part two next week, at the very least.

Emily and I attended the March 4 Justice over the weekend, and I have to be honest, I was incredibly frustrated by the lack of other media there. The absence of one outlet, in particular, stood out.

This outlet published an article last week that included details so graphic I almost threw up when I was sent it.

Now, I know sugarcoating the truth helps no one, but I’m of the mind that respect for a victim always ALWAYS comes first. And I just don’t believe they would want those details out there just yet. At the very least, I would want to know they were okay with them being out there before I published them.

To publish intimate details of an alleged rape case but not show up to the event advocating for women is, in my opinion, disgusting.

Do you think you represent our community well? Do you think that court lists and polls about the best real estate agent in the region represent our community and their concerns? Because they do not. It is an absolute disservice to our community.

Honestly, I don’t think it’s one single journalist’s fault. I know they have click requirements and subscription requirements, and they get sent the polls to be rolled out across all their titles. I know they’re probably on their own, which is actually seemingly unusual for this organisation. I feel sorry for them.

It points to a larger systemic issue in that organisation, that’s coming from its core. They are not for news or the community, they are for money. And it’s doing far more harm than good.

Our great grape crush Our journalists, Dominique Tassell and EmilyRose Toohey, joined in on the grape crushing fun over the weekend at the Apple & Grape Harvest Festival.

While they didn’t win, they do believe they learnt some valuable techniques from SDRC Mayor, Vic Pennisi, and did enjoy getting the opportunity to have a grape fight with him.

He threw the grapes first, they swear.

We’d love for you to send through your favourite photos from the Apple & Grape Harvest Festival for us to include in next week’s edition.

Scouts up for adventure

By Emily-Rose Toohey Warwick Scouts has a new group leader in Melanie Gibbons, and she has been leading the team for a few months.

“Scouts is a great place for people to learn life skills, determination, and resilience,” Melanie said.

“We have some amazing activities and adventurous opportunities, like rock climbing and abseiling.”

One of its members, 14-year-old Malcolm, will be heading to the World Jamboree in South Korea in August 2023.

“The World Jamoree is basically a gathering of scouts worldwide - they have their own town,” Melanie said.

“There is an Australian Contingent of 900; 700 of those are Scouts.”

Melanie said that people interested in joining the group are welcome to attend upcoming meetings to learn more about them.

“The Joey’s (ages 5 -8 years) is held on Thursday nights from 5pm to 6pm, Cubs (8-11 years) is held on Tuesday nights from 6-7.30pm, Scouts (11-14 years) is held on Thursdays from 6pm-8pm, and Venturers (14-18) years is held

World Jamoree 2023 attendee, Malcolm. on Thursdays from 6.30-8.30pm,” she said.

“Children can attend Scouts 3 times on section nights to try out to see if it’s suitable for them.”

Melanie said that Scouts overall is very youth lead.

“Team leaders help facilitate their activities, but these are decided by the groups themselves.”

Help for the flood-affected

By Dominique Tassell The Australian Rodeo Heritage Centre in Warwick has done its part to help flood-affected communities in Lismore.

The Heritage Centre donated over 100 shirts, 20 caps, and 10 bags.

Teilah McKelvey said, “we tried to think of things they could use immediately and that didn’t need to be stored”.

For locals looking to help out, Teilah said more bags might go down if there is a need for them, but “we are very conscious to make sure what we sent was needed and could be used”.

“In times of crisis we all like to dig in together, but it’s so important to ensure our donations can be taken and utilised.”

Elly Bird, the coordinator of Resilient Lismore, echoed this sentiment when she urged people to be considerate about what goods they donate.

The Lismore Government has urged those interested in helping to donate to the Lismore Flood Fund by direct bank transfer.

The bank details are: Name: Lismore City Council - Flood Fund Account BSB: 062 565 Account: 10864633 You can also donate to the Echo Northern Rivers 2022 Flood Donation appeal by going to gofund.me/34d0f7b2 Food Relief Cook Up is also accepting donations to help them feed those affected by the floods.

Council loses gong

By Emily-Rose Toohey The Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) was stripped of its 2019 Froggatt Award last week.

Froggatt Awards recognise outstanding achievements in protecting Australia’s natural environment, and SDRC was recognised for local landholders taking action on pests and weeds - the 2017 implemented Invasive Pest Control Scheme (IPECS).

Its official removal in 2021 following a council vote has resulted in the award loss.

SDRC Mayor Vic Pennisi said there were a number of reasons why the IPECS was removed.

“The first instance is that it was an election issue - it was a very unpopular scheme, and although some embraced it, others didn’t feel that way,” Cr Pennisi said.

“Secondly, it was costly - rate payers were losing money and we have to do right by them.”

A spokesperson for SDRC said more than 700 Southern Downs landholders joined forces at Freestone on 10 August 2017 to voice their discontent with IPECS. “It was time for SDRC to listen and act,” the spokesperson said.

“After it was removed, a new era began with the current Pest Management Scheme which utilises existing tools to manage and police non-compliant landholders in a cost effective and fair manner.”

The spokesperson said IPECS was based on a similar scheme introduced in Victoria.

“At the time IPECS was implemented across the Southern Downs, the scheme looked to be a world-first in invasive pest management,”

SDRC lost its 2019 Froggatt Award last week. the spokesperson said.

“The Victoria scheme had a major difference: it was a rewards-based scheme and not a penalty-based scheme, and SDRC was the latter.

“The money collected by council from the rate base of landholders was not enough to support the operational costs of IPECS.” As a result, the spokesperson said the scheme left council open to costly legal challenge.

“All of our legal obligations are being filled with our new scheme,” the spokesperson said.

Cr Pennisi said that if he had known removing IPECS would have lost council the Froggatt Award, he still would have made the removal decision.

“We have an obligation to landholders and the existing scheme is now working well,” Cr Pennisi said.

New art exhibit to open

By Dominique Tassell Stanthorpe Regional Art Gallery is full steam ahead as they prepare to open their new exhibition, Then | Now | ART : 150 Years of Stanthorpe’s Creativity.

The official opening of the exhibit will be held on Friday 11 March at 6pm, and the gallery will return to regular hours from Saturday 12 March after closing earlier this week to prepare.

The extension to the art gallery and library has been on the cards for over ten years, Mary said, and part of the need for it was because the gallery has always fit the national gallery standard.

Mary said the gallery wants to use its reserve to look after emerging artists and young artists in the community. She’d love to be able to have some artists in residence, which is an expensive endeavour.

The gallery’s art prize money also comes out of this reserve.

“That money is really important,” Mary said.

The gallery has run a 5000 biennial art prize that has run since 1972 and is one of the top ten art prizes nationally.

She said money is secured in different ways by the gallery, but all that money goes back into the community, The gallery has undertaken “really careful and astute planning for the future,” Mary said.

She said the reserve means the gallery is able to donate their whole space to the Crisps Youth Art Prize every year.

The gallery tries to save money by applying for grants where they can, and Mary said they understand that Council is dealing with public money.

“We’re looking at public money,” she said, and this is why the gallery holds itself to such a high standard.

Mary said the gallery has become a huge drawcard for tourism, and this is why a central location is important.

She said they try to support all the local groups and continually give back.

Mary said the gallery is working very closely with the project manager, and they “don’t want anything except what we really need”.

Library services needed

By Dominique Tassell Locals spoke up at last week’s Connecting with Council meeting in Killarney to highlight the lack of access they have to proper library services.

Colin and Marge Murphy from Mt Colliery asked when the community would get the library van back or get an “actual library” provided by Southern Downs Regional Council.

A staff member stated they had been talking with local facilities, including the Killarney CWA, about using their facilities and staff.

They stated that the library van is hard to social distance in, and stated that home delivery is an option.

Locals stated it “doesn’t suit us at all how it’s happening now”.

They said it’s “wonderful” for the community to have the van, but it is indeed quite small and hard to use.

Locals stated “we need a library here” in Killarney, and there is enough demand to justify it. Locals made allusions to the growth of other libraries in the region, wondering why funding was not being more spread out.

Staff agreed that the current mobile library is quite restrictive, and said it will take some time to find a solution.

Locals stated they just want to know that the Council are working on it, with one joking it used to be the place to get all the local gossip.

The Council provides libraries in three towns throughout the region, with those located in Allora, Stanthorpe, and Warwick.

They also provide a mobile library service, which travels to Dalveen, Karara, Killarney, Leyburn, Maryvale, Pratten, Wheatvale, and Yangan.

Calls for ‘damaged’ Tannymorel Centopaph upgrades

By Emily-Rose Toohey At the Killarney Connecting with Council Meeting, a local brought forward a request to improve the Tannymorel Cenotoph.

Because the monument is 100 years old, Killarney local Jim Simons said it needs to be maintained.

“We noticed that it has started to deteriorate,” Jim said.

“Ants have made their homes there and

the sandstone has been damaged.”

He said that some preventative measures will likely look after the Cenotaph and ensure its preservation.

“We think that really needs to be looked at.”

The Killarney Connecting with Council Meeting occurred on Wednesday 2 March, with Southern Downs Regional Council Mayor, councillors, and some council staff in attendance.

Maeve, the other half of the bonded cat duo available for adoption together.

Ashling, one half of the bonded domestic long-hair calico cats.

ARK animal of the week Southern Downs ARK has a number of dogs and cats up for adoption.

This week we’re highlighting ASHLING and MAEVE. Ages: 11 months Adoption fee: $550 for both ABOUT Ashling and Maeve are a bonded pair of very attractive, long-haired calicos, born around March 2021.

Ashling’s foster mum gave her that name, which means ‘dream or vision’, because she’s a very pretty little girl.

She has gorgeous symmetrical markings on her face and her soft and silky coat is fluffier than the photos suggest.

A little unsure until she gets to know you, Ashling enjoys a pat once you’ve earned her trust.

Although she didn’t like the photo shoot

that much, she was sufficiently cooperative to earn a gold star for tolerance.

With patience, time and a gentle hand, she will reach her full potential.

Miss Maeve is equally lovely but much more outgoing.

She has a distinctive, but very cute, bobtail.

Sweet-tempered and friendly with her humans, she is an excellent foil for her quieter sister.

Both girls are cat-friendly, but neither has had exposure to children since being in care.

Their joint adoption fee is $550 and they are desexed, vaccinated and microchipped.

They live inside exclusively and are litter-trained.

Opinion: Ritchie’s jokes aren’t funny

By Emily-Rose Toohey Former Australian cricket player Greg Ritchie is no stranger to the spotlight.

However, during his post-cricket career, Ritchie has become a figure who causes controversy.

During a stint on Channel Nine’s The Footy Show, he created a ‘comedic’ character named Mahatma Cote – a Punjabi man who loved sports.

Not only did he dress up in brownface, a racist and dehumanising act, but his caricature-like impersonation was for his sole gain.

Ritchie has been publicly criticised for this and for other racially insensitive comments – he was even banned from all Cricket Australia events during the 2012-2013 season as a result.

Nonetheless, Ritchie was MC at a Stanthorpe-based event last Friday night, and much to my horror, his opening bit was an impersonation of a Punjabi Sikh pilot.

It was not funny.

In fact, it was mortifying – he even blatantly referenced his Footy Show character without a hint of remorse.

A simple nod to this character speaks volumes.

It means that Greg Ritchie has not learned anything, or simply does not care about who he offends and how appalling this continued performance is.

His appearance last Friday served as an unpleasant reminder of Mahatma Cote and everything this character symbolises: inherent racism.

Warwick man’s body found Brownface and blackface have been performed by white people for centuries in film and minstrel shows, and were purposefully designed for comedy and to entertain white audiences.

Instead, as Kendall Trammell (2019) wrote, these performances were “hurtful and demeaning because they reinforced white people’s notions of superiority”.

Furthermore, Washington State University’s David Leonard wrote in 2012 that blackface is “part of a history of dehumanisation,

TRUCK INSURANCE?

of denied citizenship, and of efforts to excuse and justify state violence”.

In 2022, to see someone on stage in front of hundreds of people and unashamedly reference an outdated skit is concerning.

It does not matter that Ritchie did not actually dress up in brownface at the event, as his impersonation was horrendous enough and a call-back to the many times he did.

Greg Ritchie, it is time to wake up.

The world has changed and it is time you changed with it.

Police have located a body believed to be that of a 31-year-old man missing in Warwick on Monday.

The man had been missing since Sunday February 27.

Police divers located the vehicle and deceased man in the flood waters of the Condamine River near Victoria Street around 4pm on Monday.

Police said investigations are continuing and are preparing a report for the Coroner.

The man was last seen leaving Ross Street around 7:30pm on 27 February in a blue Volkswagen Polo hatchback with Queensland registration.

Anyone with further information should contact police.

Zonta’s big IWD brekky

By Dominique Tassell

12538610-DL09-22

The Zonta Club of Warwick held its International Women’s Day breakfast on 8 March at Warwick RSL. International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.

The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity, celebrating women’s achievements and raising awareness about women’s equality.

The breakfast featured keynote speaker Deirdre Davis.

The title of Deirdre’s talk was “14,000 dreams on hold”. Deirdre shared her adventures into the less attractive elements plaguing Nepal’s most vulnerable children.

She spoke of her partnership with others across the globe, lending their strength towards the annihilation of child trafficking.

The rescued children, now young women, are working to prevent this cycle from continuing and how they are conquering the mountain of child trafficking through bravery, tenacity, compassion and love.

Primed for sections Prime Feeder Cattle Section With the changing of the guard in the Prime Cattle Section at this year’s Warwick Show, new Chairman Matt Cleary and Chief Steward Steven Maher are optimistic about this year’s Prime Cattle Section.

The committee has decided to introduce a new feeder section with classes for feeder Steers and Heifers, with a weight range from 280 – 400kg.

The committee is also thrilled to see new sponsors come on board which will see increased prize money on offer. With the improved season in the district, we are looking forward to increased entries this year, especially in the young vealer section.

Please contact your preferred agent or contact the Warwick Show & Rodeo office for entry forms. Cattle will be judged and then offered for sale on Friday 18th March.

In the pony ring In the pony ring at the 2022 show, there are classes for every level of young rider and every size horse.

The local led classes sometimes referred to as the halter classes, start the day on Friday (show holiday) and it’s the chance for everyone to show off just how good looking their pony is.

Everyone always has a better-looking horse at home but if you don’t bring it to the show, how can you prove it?

The local riding events are aimed at the age of our pony club riders but member or not, all local riders are invited to make an effort to show off their horses in their various size categories as the day rolls on.

Entry fees are not expensive and a lovely sash or ribbon is always a delight to show off at home.

OPINION

Concerns over word usage I am concerned about the use of ‘unethical’ in a headline. I am new to Warwick. I do not know Cr Gale, or even what party he belongs to.

However, I read the article expecting some significant revelation about unethical behaviour and misuse of power. It seems that the counsellor was rude and poorly behaved.

Unethical behaviour implies corruption and misuse of position, which he denies in the article.

This is poor reporting and a misuse of your power as a reporter. You open yourself up to liable.

Think about your responsibility to individuals and the community when you incorrectly label behaviour or spread the errors of others misuse of language.

Jo Nehmer Editor’s Note: Hi Jo, the use of unethical in the title of this article was a direct quote from the complainant, which was included in the report tabled at the Council meeting. You can tell it is a quote from the apostrophes around the word. You can find the quotes from the report in the third column of the article when reading the printed version.

Malcolm McDougall making a mark I read with interest the article about Malcolm McDougall submitted by John Telfer in today’s edition (3-3-22).

There’s a good chance that he knew my great uncle Jim Beyers, who also sailed aboard the A15 Star of England as a member of the 2nd. Light Horse. He also arrived at Gallipoli on the 9th. May, but sadly was killed on the 14th. May at Quinn’s Post, apparently the most heavily shelled place of the whole campaign.

When my wife & I visited his grave in 2010, it dawned on us that he had been laying there for 95 years without any family visitors.

It was very moving at all the monuments commemorating both sides of this futile campaign.

Peter Andrewartha, Stanthorpe

Sustainable Waste Management In a SDRC media release on 25th February about sustainable waste management the statement was made that there would be “1225 new residential waste collection points

by April 4” and that this bolsters “the region’s recycling capacity”. Also, that it was a progressive and necessary step forward in continuing the region’s long term environmental sustainability.

Increased kerbside pick ups doesn’t increase sustainable waste management processes.

We often hear about the circular economy and the reduction of our environmental footprint, and there is mention of working together to divert waste from landfill. [In 2020, 27,000 tonnes to landfill].

However, is expanding the roadside waste collection areas and providing dedicated bins as far as it goes?

The SDRC’s Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan 2021-2024 does not focus heavily enough on new initiatives regards resource recovery.

There’s a lot about bins, landfill and transfer stations. There are limited life spans for landfill and costs involved in their decontamination and rehabilitation. Not to mention the cost of

transporting waste to landfill.

Now, more than ever, is the need to implement new existing innovative technologies, feasibility studies, economic viability for council and economic benefits to the region within the area of resource recovery and waste management.

It’s one thing to talk about aspirations to develop circular economies and another to start on the research and development to meet important waste reduction target dates and to see SDRC become a trail blazer for resource recovery.

Parks Week: Let’s celebrate our green spaces During Parks Weeks 2022, Council invites the community to walk beside us as we celebrate our green spaces and strategise a sustainable long-term plan for our parks.

Parks Week promotes the vital role parks play in creating liveable and thriving communities.

On the back of COVID-19 and restrictive lockdowns, Parks Week this year focuses on how spending time in our parks and open spaces positively influences our wellbeing.

While Council’s Parks Optimisation Project has been the subject of recent community discussion, Mayor Vic Pennisi said the resource-prioritising initiative was aimed at enhancing popular destination parks for the enjoyment of the community, not reducing green spaces to the detriment of residents.

Hello happy campers!

Dedicated to changing the lives of teenagers through youth mental health education and programs, the not-for-profit organisation offers free youth camps which will now be hosted at Fred Rogers Camp at Storm King Dam, thanks to the new arrangement.

Southern Downs Councillor Cynthia McDonald said Borderline Australia’s camps extended a valuable and supportive lifeline to the younger generation.

“While we continue to demonstrate our resilience in tackling the pandemic and its moving parts, good mental health is important for healthy teenage development, strong relationships and resilience, and supporting our younger generation has never been more critical,” Councillor McDonald said.

“Borderline Australia is a progressive grassroots community organisation offering social connection activities and it’s wonderful to see some inspiring young leaders at its helm addressing the issues impacting teenagers today.

“Parks are valued spaces, essential to wellbeing – places where we can come together to socialise, exercise and relax, especially during difficult times,” Mayor Pennisi said.

Parks Week is coordinated by Parks and Leisure Australia each year between 5 and 13 March.

Visit www.parks-week.org for more information.

“Fred Rogers Camp is a wonderful outdoor resource and by making the site available to Borderline Australia, Council is helping an excellent community focused organisation with the certainty to provide youth camps for years to come.”

“Through the course of the process, we will undertake a balanced and informed approach to secure a brighter future for our green spaces and will engage in public consultation to understand how each space is valued and utilised by the community.”

“Time and time again, I hear from the younger members of our community that there is not enough for them to do and Borderline Australia Youth Camps strike the right chord as they are fun, relevant, real and relatable.

WIN A $200 GIFT CARD 1

The Mayor added that while the Parks Optimisation Project provides strategic guidance and direction on the future management of Council-owned green spaces, it also has a firm focus to reflect demand and shift resources from under-utilised parks.

12539087-AV10-22

Council has thrown its support behind youth mental health with a new in-kind partnership with Borderline Australia.

“Our parks contribute to the liveability and identity of our community and I encourage everyone to use Parks Weeks as an opportunity to explore and enjoy the parks and facilities in their neighbourhood.

A real romantic getaway

By Emily-Rose Toohey Last Thursday night, Dalveen Film Society hosted a special screening of Under the Tuscan Sun for the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival.

The 2003 released film stars Diane Lane as Frances, a book critic who finds out her husband’s cheating on her.

As a result, her life is turned completely upside down.

But as it turns out, this major life event is exactly what she needs.

When Frances’ best friend (portrayed by Sandra Oh) falls pregnant, she is unable to go on a trip to Italy with her partner – a tour for LGBTQ couples, it turns out.

After some persuasion, Frances takes up the offer and packs her bags for a soon to be remembered trip of a lifetime.

Instead of committing to the whole tour, she abandons the group and purchases an old home in Tuscany on a whim.

She meets locals, tries to find new love, and forms life long bonds with the people she meets.

The film as a whole is an escape from everyday life into the ancient streets of Italy.

In a way, it’s an escapist movie and is easy to watch as we follow a woman recovering from a major life event and blossoming into a stronger, happier person.

The film promises us a grand getaway, but overall, Under the Tuscan Sun is very average.

Although the beautiful scenery shown may take away from the film’s mediocrity, it’s hard to ignore the sub-par, often cringe worthy writing and acting.

That being said, the film was a perfect choice to show during the Apple and Grape Festival week.

It captures the atmosphere and serenity of a getaway to Italy, and the adventures this can offer.

In fact, it’s a rather effective comfort film – easy to digest and sit with.

In a way, it could be compared with Eat Pray Love. However, Under the Tuscan Sun is more accomplished.

Nonetheless, if ever one wants to imagine

a getaway to Italy, this one’s for you.

It’s not the best travel-themed movie set in Italy (this reviewer recommends Call Me

By Your Name, as heartbreaking as it is), but

it’s fun and very much a product of the time - early 2000s.

Under the Tuscan Sun is available for streaming on Disney+.

Prominent female directors worth celebrating this IWD

By Emily-Rose Toohey In honour of International Women’s Day, we’re highlighting prominent female movie directors who work in the industry and have made some incredible films.

Directors are essential – they’re the people in charge of movie sets and collaborate with artists to bring their vision to life.

Here are four talented female directors and their best films to watch: Greta Gerwig Lady Bird (2017) Lady Bird stars Gerwig’s frequent collaborator, Saoirse Ronan, as teenager Christine ‘Lady Bird’ McPherson.

She faces the ups and downs of high school as she navigates her relationships with family and her closest friends – the prospect of graduation is looming.

Little Women (2019) Based on Louisa May Alcott’s iconic novel, Gerwig’s adaptation is definitive for this generation.

It stars Saoirse Ronan as Jo, Emma Watson as Meg, Florence Pugh as Amy, and Eliza Scanlen as Beth.

Olivia Wilde Booksmart (2019) Actress turned director Olivia Wilde made her directorial debut with Booksmart, a comedic film about two High School seniors (Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever) who decide to rebel by going to a party.

Over one chaotic night, the friends get themselves into hilarious situations.

Chloe Zhao Nomadland (2020) Oscar winner Chloe Zhao is known for her thoughtful, reflective indie films.

Nomadland is no different.

It stars Frances McDormand as a woman who loses everything in the Great Recession, and embarks through life as a nomad.

22 TODAY Thursday, 10 March, 2022

Emerald Fennell Promising Young Woman (2020) Another actress turned director, Fennell helmed the Carey Mulligan starrer about a woman who seeks revenge after her best friend is brutally assaulted.

The film is an interesting look into the psychology of those who have been affected by abuse – with devastating consequences.

Other great female directors (to name a few) Kathryn Bigelow Ava DuVernay Sofia Coppola

The Guide CELEBRITY LETTERS AND NUMBERS SBS, Saturday, 7.30pm

Ordinary folk can turn out to be not so “ordinary” as they show off their impressive brain matter in this lighthearted and fun game show.

But plunk a few celebrities into the mathematical and alphabetical flurry and the entertainment level goes up a few decibels. This week, host Michael Hing (pictured) is joined by comedians Benjamin Law, Concetta Caristo, Bob Downe and Carlo Ritchie in a test of their word and numerical resourcefulness.

COMPASS ABC TV Plus, Sunday, 7.30pm

After more than 30 years of stories revolving around the intersection between religion and life, recently Compass has branched out with a series of “sacred space” episodes. This week, these insightful and intimate instalments return with journalist, podcaster and TV host Marc Fennell opening up his safe space: the kitchen. He chats with host Geraldine Doogue (pictured with Fennell) about his Pentecostal upbringing, multicultural family, complex relationship with food, as well as his hopes for Australia.

SCOTLAND: ESCAPE TO THE WILDERNESS SBS, Monday, 7.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK THE TEACHER ABC TV, Friday, 8.30pm

Starring Sheridan Smith (Gavin & Stacey, pictured), there’s more than a whiff of melodrama and cheesy dialogue in the four-part British drama. The Teacher is a wayward cocktail of inappropriate behaviour, jealous colleagues and backstabbing friends, which all sounds very promising until it gives you a headache. Is it the story of a popular teacher going off the rails, or a case of some bad decisions and nefarious students? Time will tell, if you choose to partake in this fizzy tale of a flawed female.

It all begins to go pear-shaped as English teacher Jenna Garvey (Smith) is accused of sleeping with her pupil after a night out celebrating a promotion.

The past couple of years have highlighted that escaping to some sort of wilderness is high on many peoples’ wish lists. But we can’t all just pack up and leave, which is where this charmingly therapeutic series punches above its weight. It features wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin (pictured) adventuring with celebrities through Scotland’s picturesque landscapes. This week, actor Martin Clunes (Doc Martin) joins Yassin in the Inner Hebrides and the Isle of Mull.

This week on the farm

By Judy Barnet, Ag Columnist Autumn already! Autumn and Spring are my favourite times of the year, Autumn signalling a time to start slowing down and have dinner before 7.30 pm as well as taking time to marvel at nature’s beautiful colours. I love the abundance of leaves to rake up and use as mulch on the garden and compost as well. What’s not to love about Autumn!

Driving out the gate this morning low to the ground I saw a magnificent sea eagle take flight only metres from me. Hot on its heels were some small birds. It’s not every day you see a sight like that.

Like everyone I was shocked and horrified to see the major weather event evolve last week. My sister lives near Ipswich and was impacted by their shed flooding and storm damage, no words I write can express the terror and heartache people have been through.

Frustration is overflowing in buckets from me today. Email on my phone hasn’t been working for some time. I should have just left well enough alone, after all, checking emails once a day should be enough right. But no, I rang Telstra who, for once, got back to me quickly! A quick reset of the password and all was good, or so I thought. I got up this morning with a list of things to do and check as long as my arm and first off the list was turn on the laptop and check the emails before daylight broke. I quickly discovered my email account was no longer working and assumed it had something to do with the reset yesterday. 9.00 I called Telstra and was directed to Jack who advised me my email account had been suspended due to suspicious activity. My computer had a dose of the worms and on top was being attacked by a Trojan Horse. I could feel my anxiety levels rising rapidly. It took Jack’s oneman army the whole day to defeat the Trojan Horse and kill the worms. It cost me an arm and a leg nearly to purchase Telstra’s Premium Cyber Security Package but it covers all devices for a lifetime plus 24-hour technical support.

I am incredibly overjoyed to report that the last cow, Tess, was A.I.d this afternoon. Now it is a wait and see game. I have my fingers and toes crossed! The cows are a bit better behaved now moving through the yards after some training with Bernie (the A.I. man). The first couple of times they dug their hooves in and refused to walk up into the crush. Cows that are too quiet can be more difficult to move than wild cattle sometimes!

I went to take a few more photos of the sale lambs for my Facebook page yesterday and as I approached them in front of me (about 2 metres) was a tin shelter the sheep use occasionally. I looked down and at the same time a large feral cat, striped like a tiger woke up from his sleep in the shelter. I had the camera of course but I got such a shock he was through the paddock and over the fence into the trees before I could say Holy Mackeral. I suspect the cat has been cleaning up the Guinea Fowl that are often in that paddock. He was a magnificent specimen of a feral cat, fat, large and shiny in his prime I would say. It is essential that we get rid of this cat before the end of winter when lambing starts. We have been trying now for quite some time but will have to ramp up the efforts.

Wednesday dawned bright and clear for our concrete delivery at 6.30 am however by the time I drove out the driveway to work the sky had clouded over. 3 Generations of Gibbings worked hard to lay the concrete. Richie’s son, Steve is a concreter at A1 Aussie Concrete and grandson Cooper also came out to help. Johnson’s Quarries from Inglewood delivered the concrete and also helped when needed. Fortunately, the rain held off until that night and we woke Thursday morning to see the concrete so level, not a single puddle had formed on it.

Hopefully, in a few weeks, we will start erecting the shed.

In other news, I have started a new job at a Pecan Farm in the Dumaresq Valley. I am looking forward to having my weekends off to spend with Richie in the future (I will still be working at the Waste Facility for a few more weeks). I reckon the first thing I will do (well, we will do together despite Richie’s guaranteed protest about there being too much work to do on the farm) will be to attend a clearing sale!

I love nothing better than a weekend drive to a farm I haven’t been to before, enjoying the journey, buying a cup of tea and some delicious cakes that only those country ladies that serve on that always present at clearing sale canteen supporting a charity can bake. And of course, the anticipation of possibly securing a bargain buy that you really really need!

I was looking for a file in the Rare Breeds Trust Storage the other day and I accidentally opened a picture of the Trust’s first-ever magazine – it was dated April 1992 so next month will be a 30-year celebration of the Trust. The cover featured a photo of a Middle White Pig

– taken from a stud in Western Australia. This breed is now extinct in Australia, the date of its disappearance is unsure but is likely to be in the 1970s. The Welsh Pig, also a white breed still has its standard in the Australian

Pig Breeders Herd Book but has disappeared from our shores, I believe it was around until the 1980s Take care everyone, I look forward to catching up again next week.

MCDOUGALL & SONS STOCK AND STATION AGENT & Licensed Auctioneers 141 Palmerin Street, Warwick

PTY LTD

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

The weather not only impacted on the homes and livelihood of people in Queensland and northern New South Wales with the recent weather events but also impacted the flow through for numbers for the weekly sales.

Cattle, sheep and lamb numbers were significantly affected by the recent weather events.

Vendors were unable to get stock in for the sales or the transport was not able to reach the stock due to conditions of the roads.

Cattle numbers Vealer steers averaged 677.1c/kg to 806.2c/ kg or $1587.02 to $1890.14 Vealer heifers averaged 603c/kg to 800.2c/kg or $1349.18 to $1664.99 Feeder steers averaged 563.3c/kg to 598.2c/ kg or $2423.80 to $3035.27 Feeder heifers averaged 450.6c/kg to 528.2c/ kg or $1520.89 to $1718.79 Yearling steers averaged 664.4c/kg to 690.2c/ kg or $2044.27 to $2480.80 Yearling heifers averaged 553.7c/kg to 618.2c/kg or $ $2023.45 to $2366.33 Heifers averaged 426.8c/kg to 478.2c/kg or $2085.10 to $2529.94 Cows averaged 342.5c/kg to 385c/kg or $2110.54 to $2791.25 Bulls averaged 419.4c/kg to 510.2c/kg or $2212.27 to $3080.28 The total yarding saw the average of 554.4c/ kg or $2020.80/head Sheep and lamb numbers Sheep and lamb numbers were also back and saw a lack of buyers at the sale, re-stockers kept the market to the rate, for replacement stock back to the paddocks.

Lambs topped at $250 to average $145.14 a drop of $24/head

My Yorkshire Tea Surprise

By Jeremy Lister

If you are a community group and would like to list your event please email. advertising@warwickstanthorpetoday.com.au 30 TODAY Thursday, 10 March, 2022

Readers may remember that a few weeks ago I wrote about my 11th birthday and that I had a birthday cake which was made to look like a box of my favourite brand of tea which is Yorkshire Tea. Well I think that Yorkshire Tea must keep a very close eye on the internet because they found out about my birthday and my Yorkshire Tea cake by reading the story online.

They sent me a special package to wish me well for my birthday.

It was a big box of Yorkshire Tea merchandise with a lovely birthday card inside.

Because they didn’t have my address, they sent it to the office for Warwick Today Stanthorpe Today in Warwick and Mini Tassell looked after it for me until my dad could go in and pick it up.

I was really happy to get the parcel and I think that it also shows how this newspaper gets read all over the world.

Driven by desire to make a difference

Cr Windle ‘proud and passionate’ Sheryl Windle has been a councillor at Southern Downs Regional Council since 2016 and is currently in her sixth year on council.

Prior to becoming a councillor, she gained valuable experience as a partner in a family business for 25 years.

“I also gained further experience in retail work, office manager, and, property manager in local businesses here in Warwick, “ she said.

Along with her working life, she raised four sons and was heavily involved as a volunteer at their schools and sporting organisations.

Cr Windle said she first became interested in local government in the early 1990s but was not in a position to run for council at that time, as her priority was raising her children and continuing in her role as a partner in her family business.

“My interest in local government never waned and with encouragement from my family, I decided it was time to pursue the challenge and embark on representing the community,” she said.

Cr Windle said she is passionate about “the whole Southern Downs”.

“It’s people and its future, although my real passion lies within the uniqueness of our villages and small towns.”

“I see the potential for this region and I recognise the possibilities for tourism, business development and growth,” she said. “We live in a very diverse region and are fortunate to have so much to offer visitors who choose to visit and explore what we can offer.”

“I am both proud and passionate about living here.”

When asked how important she thinks representation and having diverse voices is in council, Cr Windle said “it will always be important to have a mix of both male and female representation on council”.

“Councillors should be elected to represent the whole region for the right reasons, with integrity, and, be committed to the role.

“Having diverse voices should mean that every Councillor, female or male, is given an opportunity to be heard in a respectful manner, and should also be provided with a working environment that is inclusive.”

Cynthia McDonald is a first-term councillor on Southern Downs Regional Council.

She was raised on her Grandfather’s farm in Gloucester, a small town in New South Wales that she said reminds her very much of Killarney.

Her family farmed both dairy and beef cattle on several properties.

I grew up with very little and learned early to appreciate life and make the best of every opportunity I was given,” she said. “My humble foundations set the grounding for how I live my life today.”

“We are all born and we all die and it is what we do in between that makes the difference.

“I believe that all of our strengths and weaknesses formed from our experiences provide the diversity of thought needed for local politics.”

By the age of 18, Cr McDonald joined the Australian Army at the Australian Defence Force Academy and graduated with a BA in Arts (Hon Politics).

She spent one year full-time doing Officer Study at the Royal Military College Duntroon and graduated to the Royal Australian Medical Corps.

She then continued her study into Logistics Management and a suite of Human Resource Courses.

Cr McDonald spent 16 years in the Army with service with the United Nations in East Timor and a memorable posting as a Guard Commander at Australia’s Federation Guard.

“My life has almost turned 360 degrees and I find myself once again enjoying my family and the land,” she said.

She said the four-year drought was the catalyst that spurred her into political life.

“I was watching a community suffer and had become very involved with charity organisations in an effort to help the community,” she said. “I realised my skill sets would be better utilised from within SDRC, rather than trying to influence it externally.”

When asked what she is passionate about in our community, she said it’s the determination and spirit of our community.

“Having been in the Army and travelled to many countries in the world I have never seen the determination and spirit of a community

like the Southern Downs”.

“The resilience to endure so many catastrophic events such as those we have faced over the last five years shows me the ‘True Grit’ of our Community,” she said.

“Whether dealing with droughts, fires, or floods, I’m very proud to work with the local community and to call the Southern Downs my home.”

When asked how important she thinks representation and having diverse voices is in Council, she said “the term diversity takes on many forms”.

“While it is extremely important that we continue to have balanced gender representation on the Council, we also require representation from the full diaspora of our community”.

She said that, being the youngest Councillor in Southern Downs Regional Council at present, she would like to see some nominees from for younger generation nominate at the next election.

“The broader the range of opinions, the better we can represent our community and achieve positive outcomes for all.”

Diverse voices need to be in the debate Jo McNally has been a councillor on Southern Downs Regional Council since 2010, but first and foremost, she’s a wife to Ian and mother to Samuel and Joseph.

She has been working since she was 16, where she had jobs in administration, finance and as a serving Queensland Police Officer.

She also assists with the bookkeeping for two family businesses.

“I left school early but it has never been a barrier to achieving my goals,” she said.

“I have always believed that learning new skills and knowledge should be part of life and I still continue to enrol in short courses and undertake workshops and certificates to ensure I am open to new ideas and open to change.”

Cr McNally said she ran for council “because I love where we live and I wanted to see the Southern Downs continue to build on the foundation of the potential that the early pioneers of this Region saw”.

“Our location, our climate, our diversity of land and our people, is what makes this region such a special place and it is why I wanted to give the region a voice on Council that would be fair and informed when making decisions.”

She said she’s passionate about our community’s lifestyle.

“Sometimes we take it for granted but we are truly blessed on the Southern Downs with our location and services we have so close on our doorstep, this allows us to have a truly wonderful lifestyle,” she said.

“Our landscapes, rural and urban land options, diversity of work opportunities, great

healthcare and school options, world-class sporting facilities, arts and culture exhibitions, festivals and events, there is something for everyone here and that is what I love about my community and it is what gives me purpose and drive to ensure I serve the community well.”

When asked how important she thinks representation and having diverse voices are in council, she said “diverse voices need to be in

the debate and in the decision-making process”.

“Councils should reflect the community and you cannot do that if half the population is not represented but it must not stop there either,” she said.

“Cultural diversity on council is just as important, we are a changing region and we need to reflect the different needs of community members.”

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

Women helping women

By Emily-Rose Toohey Southern Downs Women’s Advocacy and Action Team (WAAT) comprise of Sue Hamlet, Kathy Payne, and Judy Hefferan.

These women have been lobbying for improved women’s crisis support resources in the Southern Downs, and are motivated by lived experiences and what they see day to day at work.

“We know there is an incredible need for resources for women within our community,” the WAAT team said.

“The impacts of gendered violence on women and children (mostly) are horrendous, and the ripples of trauma in families and communities are widespread.

“This is happening in our hometown, so we felt compelled to act.”

A year ago, they organised a popup March4Justice in Warwick and said this inspired them to continue acting and lobbying for change – the Women’s Action and Advocacy Team (WAAT) in the region was hence born.

The group said their goals are to increase crisis response funding for women and children in the region, among numerous other goals.

“Clear pathways and better services for those impacted by domestic and family violence, creating better connectivity and information among existing outreach services, and continuing to act as a practical and determined agent for change,” the WAAT team said.

Their other goals include lobbying for real action on a federal, state and local level, and acting as a catalyst for local action and innovation.

“We are in discussions with the Office of Women and Violence Prevention to trial an Integrated Service Response based on the Southern Downs, starting as soon as April,” the

Southern Downs Women’s Advocacy and Action Team, Sue Hamlet, Judy Hefferan, and Kathy Payne.

WAAT team said.

“This will bring together a number of local stakeholders to see how we can better respond to the needs of our community.”

Sue, Kathy, and Judy are three women who are inspiring change in our community, and they said they will continue to lobby each and every decision maker who can advance their

list of needs.

On International Women’s Day, we celebrate their efforts and positive impact in the region.

Stanthorpe Zonta Club

By Emily-Rose Toohey Stanthorpe’s Zonta Club is a small volunteer group comprising of 29 ladies who dedicate their time to improving the lives of women and girls both locally and internationally.

Rosemary McMahon is the group’s current president, and she said the club was formed 23 years ago.

“Over those years, a lot of work has been put in to raise funds for many different organisations and needs,” Rosemary said.

“We are part of a leading global organisation, empowering women worldwide through service and advocacy - Zonta is now in its second century and has more than 28,000 members in 64 countries.”

She said that Zonta provides support to education programs, gender based violence awareness, health, and increases awareness of climate change and its impact on women.

“We’re working together to make gender equality a worldwide reality for women and girls,” Rosemary said.

Helen (Lyn) Sparks is the International Officer at the C.W.A Condamine Country Warwick Branch.

She has lived in Warwick for seven years, living in Rosalie Shire prior to that.

Lyn didn’t know anyone when she first moved here and decided to attend a line dancing group at St Mark’s to meet people. One week, a woman was missing and when Lyn asked where she’d been she was told about the CWA. When she first joined, she didn’t know a lot about the organisation but knew how to work.

She’d started working when she was 16 years old, and had only been retired a few years.

“I had to sit and learn the first 12 months,” she said.

But then she was “thrown in the deep end” looking after the photography competition for the branch.

Since joining the branch, Lyn has also

achieved her certification as a Country Show judge through the CWA. She said one thing led to another, and now she’s done four years as the International Officer of the branch.

“It involves a lot of community work,” she said.

Lyn has two more years in the role and enjoys it immensely.

She said the role involves a lot of fun, but she also enjoys all the good work they get to do for the community.

The branch recently granted three bursaries to local high school graduates and raises funds to donate things like spectacles and hearing aids with the help of other groups.

They also donate domestic violence packs for women and focus on keeping money in small towns where they can with things like conferences.

The birth kits will be distributed to expectant mums in developing countries. tributed and used in one of their many worthwhile projects.

“On a local level, we have donated to Granite Belt Support Services, Protea Place, Scholarships for High School girls, Warwick Safe Haven, Granite Belt Cancer Support group, and CDS regularly over the years,” she said.

The women involved in Stanthorpe’s Zonta Club actively strive for gender equality and to make a difference in the community – we celebrate them on International Women’s Day.

Our women are silently

By Dominique Tassell When Eliza* was a teenager she found a quote: ‘Don’t set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm’. She wrote it down and put it up on her wall, and it’s stuck with her ever since.

To Eliza, the quote speaks volumes about her relationship with her father. She said she knew even then, at around fourteen, that she was emotionally setting herself on fire, but it would take years for her to extinguish all contact with him.

Eliza thinks her family presented as “pretty normal” -- even perfect -- to outsiders. She always knew it wasn’t. Inside her house, her father was emotionally, and on multiple occasions, physically abusive.

One in four Australian women has experienced emotional abuse by a former or current partner, and studies show that children growing up in these environments have higher rates of social and emotional problems. Indigenous women in Australia are more likely to experience domestic and family-related violence than non-Indigenous Australian women, and more likely to be hospitalised as a result of this violence. Women with disabilities are also more likely to experience domestic and family-related violence than other women and have added barriers when leaving abusive situations.

The prevalence of domestic violence in our society is undeniable. In 2020, the deaths of Hannah Clarke and her children in Brisbane sent shockwaves across Australia after her estranged husband set fire to her car while she and her children were inside. But why are we only talking about domestic violence when it presents in the most obvious form? Why do our women have to die for us to take notice of the problem?

Hannah Clarke has been quoted as saying her husband’s actions weren’t abuse because he didn’t hit her. But abuse is far more complicated than just physical violence. It takes many forms, some which leave marks of a different nature but marks nonetheless. Survivors of this abuse may only recognise this trauma

38 TODAY Thursday, 10 March, 2022

as such years later, and the assistance available only seems to focus on the marks we can see.

Eliza’s dad played favourites, and she said that her father’s emotional manipulation left her feeling like she had to work for his love.

She can still see the effects of that in her family today and constantly struggles with feeling like she’s not good enough. She hates events that are meant to be about her, like birthdays or graduations, because her dad would rarely show up even though she begged him to.

“I remember crying in the car on the way to my formal because he hadn’t shown up to the pre-party at my mum’s house and looking for him at my high school graduation but not finding him,” Eliza said.

Both times he later told her it was too hard for him to be there. Eliza tells me she “didn’t bother” inviting him to her university graduation.

“I try really hard to be understanding, and I struggle now with finding that line between compassion and being taken advantage of.

Even though I’m sympathetic to my dad’s struggles, he consistently prioritised his emotions and as a result I feel like mine are unimportant.”

Growing up, Eliza struggled to deal with her dislike of her father’s actions and her love for him as his child.

“I think you automatically idolise your parents, and to be confronted so early with the fact that they’re not perfect is really difficult to process,” she said.

Eliza said she feels like she almost treated him as two different people to deal with it.

“I can definitely remember thinking as a kid that dad would come home and eat dinner and be nice, then he’d go outside and have a few drinks and come back inside and be mean.”

Eliza said she still loved him, and that’s difficult for her on many levels. She worries that the love she felt for her father represented an unintentional betrayal of her mother.

“I’ve always wished that my mum had got out before I was born. Even though she said my siblings and I are the best thing in her life

and the one good thing to come out of our situation, I’ve always felt like a bit of a burden.”

Eliza’s mother, Katherine*, said physical violence definitely wasn’t the worst part of her abusive marriage. For the first two decades of her marriage, the abuse was emotional. The physical violence, however, was what made her realise she needed to leave. She didn’t want her children exposed to that as she thought it would damage them.

“With the benefit of hindsight, I now know that the constant and ongoing emotional abuse would be far more destructive and insidious and something I may never truly overcome.

“I am still not really sure why I put up with such terrible treatment and this still haunts me,” Katherine said.

Like many women in abusive relationships, Katherine was isolated from others. She worked at the family business with her husband and, after their separation, went back to work for a previous employer. She said this provided her with a purpose and helped her get her sense of self back.

“It was honestly just good to be treated nicely by people. I’d been very trapped at home.”

Stacey* left an abusive relationship over a year-and-a-half ago, suddenly finding herself a single mother of five children. She said she knew her relationship was toxic, but it took someone else pointing out the situation for her to act on it.

At that time, she had no formal qualifications and no solid employment for 12 years.

Stacey became involved with a training provider through the government. Through the program, she gained a certificate and successfully interviewed for a job.

Stacey said that gaining employment helped her in more ways than just financial stability. Her confidence, self-worth, community knowledge, and friendships grew as a result.

Stacey said that during her relationship, she was made to feel guilty for not contributing financially to the household. However, when

she created her own cleaning business, she was made to feel guilty for not giving her partner all her attention and not catering to all of his needs. She said she would have to ask permission to accept work.

“Once given the permission, I would still suffer the consequences later.

“Any interest in work or study was quickly shot down and I was made to feel incapable.”

Once Stacey had realised she was in an abusive relationship, she said she couldn’t bring herself to admit it. At the time she didn’t know what support services were available.

“To be honest I probably would have been too scared to accept it,” she said.

The effects of emotional abuse are just as real and long-lasting as the effects of physical violence, yet due to stigma can often go untreated.

Eliza said that she’s only realised recently how badly her experience growing up in an abusive home affected her. She said she knew she had issues from it, but only recently confronted these and started taking steps to work on them, including seeking help from a psychologist.

“Therapy was a really dirty word in my family growing up. There was definitely the attitude that it was ‘paying someone to care about you’, which I think in itself speaks to my family’s issues,” she said.

Eliza said she thinks her family struggles with low self-esteem and self-worth as a result of their experience. She said this presented itself in various ways, particularly in the form of unhealthy attitudes and habits surrounding food when she was a teenager. She said it’s taken a long time for her not to see food as an easy way to punish herself.

Eliza said she struggles with issues around trust, commitment and vulnerability. She worries she’ll be judged for her experiences or seen as an easy target for bad behaviour.

“I think that stems from the subconscious thought that I let myself be treated that way, when I know that’s victim blaming and not true at all.”

WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

burning and we must act Eliza said she wishes she’d seen someone about her issues as a child and feels like it’s much harder to seek help later in life.

“I think every kid whose parents divorce should have to see the school counsellor, at least. Now that I’m older it’s so complicated and costs so much and it’s just not accessible at all.”

Katherine said she knows that mental health issues played a huge part in her exhusband’s behaviour but that doesn’t erase the effects of 20 years of abuse.

“Twenty years of being told you are unlovable and unattractive, blamed for your partner’s unhappiness, told no-one else would want you or find you attractive, betrayed and cheated on repeatedly, berated and undervalued, manipulated, disempowered, of feeling invisible and of no importance, and having your every action and thought twisted and sullied leaves an indelible mark and makes it difficult to finally move on when you finally break away.”

Katherine said there was an enduring shame and sense of failure, and a fear that she could be treated that way again. She said she’s never sought any professional help and wasn’t in a financial position to do so for a long time

nor did she know where to go.

Katherine said she felt lucky just to have escaped. She focussed all her attention on raising her children and staying busy. She wouldn’t know where to find help now, though she said it’s something she should probably do.

“I find it really hard to trust anyone and although I am by nature a generous person, I often feel used,” Katherine said.

Stacey, too, thinks she and her children have lasting effects from their experience. She said at the time it was hard for her to recall specific incidences when explaining her experience to others. However, Stacey said she now experiences flashbacks and memories that suddenly reappear.

Her abuse still affects her confidence.

Stacey said she struggles to make decisions, and at times doubts her parenting abilities due to past criticism from her ex-partner. She experiences a lot of guilt for having allowed her children to suffer, with one child being targeted more than the others.

Stacey said her past experience also affects her new partnerships as well, as it’s hard to trust that person. For both herself and her children, there is always a fear that the past will repeat itself. She said her children still wait

for her new partner to stop being nice at any given time.

Stacey said that she received a Mental Health Plan from her GP, but there was a waitlist of up to three months for counselling. After being referred to another service and attending one session, she decided she couldn’t afford to attend any further sessions.

Stacey said the most challenging aspect of leaving her abusive relationship was financial, and she needed help from her family to relocate. She also said awareness and knowledge of the different types of domestic abuse is necessary.

The stigma around domestic violence is still very real, and all women speaking in this article said this affected them. For Eliza, this meant her family didn’t really talk about their experience - even with each other - until recently.

She said there are negative attitudes around ‘broken homes’ and ‘daddy issues’. Growing up in a conservative, religious environment also meant there was a stigma attached to divorce itself.

“I think growing up I generally thought people would think it reflected badly on me, not my dad,” she said.

Katherine said she felt like a failure for di-

vorcing her ex-husband, and that growing up she’d been conditioned as a woman to “fix things, make things right and keep your family together”. She said there was a sense of shame for staying as long as she did, and not standing up for herself. Katherine said that she felt like she got out okay, and that domestic violence services, in her mind, were for women in physical danger.

Stacey said that she’s dealt with many ignorant comments around domestic violence, such as saying survivors are ‘damaged goods’ or should have left sooner. She said these comments “hurt a lot” and she wishes there was more education on the types of abuse and the barriers women face during an abusive relationship.

Eliza keeps her quote taped to one of the mirrors in her apartment now. She said she’s glad she has more than a quote to help her deal with what she’s been through.

“Talking about it has really helped, both with a trained professional and just with my family.

“My sister and I, though, we’ve joked about how fully functioning we’d be if we’d gotten help when we first needed it.” * names have been changed for anonymity

Childcare costs slashed Member for Maranoa David Littleproud welcomed a significant increase in the rate of Child Care Subsidy (CCS) for Maranoa families with multiple children aged five or under in child care earlier this week.

Mr Littleproud said the Australian Government had lifted the rate of CCS by 30 per cent for the second child aged five or under and any younger children in child care, up to a maximum rate of 95 per cent.

The higher subsidy will boost support for working families and follows the removal of the annual CCS cap of $10,655 for families earning over $190,015 (in 2021-22 terms) from 10 December 2021 – and beyond.

“These measures will ease the cost of child care for 740 Maranoa families, who on average will be around $2260 a year better off,” Mr Littleproud said.

“For a family who are charged a typical fee and earns $120,000 a year with two children in child care for five days per week, the sav-

ing will be $144 per week compared to current settings.”

The Coalition Government fast-tracked the increased subsidy, bringing it forward from 1 July 2022 to today.

Mr Littleproud was today on the ground at Winton Council’s Little Swaggies Child Care, one of the 74 Child Care Services in his elec-

torate, to hear firsthand how the changes will affect local families.

“Families do not have to do anything to receive the increased subsidy - it will flow to families automatically, with no need to apply to Services Australia,” Mr Littleproud said.

“But families keen to know their benefits can go to the new StartingBlocks.gov.au web-

site and use the simple family estimator.”

Mr Littleproud said the Australian Government measures would make a significant contribution to easing the pressure on the cost of living for many families with young children.

“For local families with more than one child aged five or under in child care, today’s increase in the CCS, means more money in your pocket each week.

“This is good news for eligible families who will benefit from reduced out-of-pocket child care costs, which also provides an incentive to consider either returning to work or working additional hours.

“Local families know that the cost of child care, particularly for families with more than one child in care can be a barrier to pursuing employment or working additional hours.

“This is especially so for local mums who may be able to use this to get back into the workforce or to increase their hours in their current job.”

More funding rolling out to strengthen our communities The Coalition Government is providing more funding to help Maranoa recover and grow on the other side of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Applications are now open for the new Rebuilding Regional Communities Program, giving local businesses and community groups a chance to share in $5.7 million.

Grants are available for a range of grassroots, community-led initiatives that will help communities bounce back by strengthening social connections, supporting jobs and creating economic opportunities.

Member for Maranoa David Littleproud

said the funding would deliver a much-needed boost for local businesses, communities and towns hit hard by the pandemic.

“The Government is continuing to invest in the projects and initiatives that will make our communities more resilient and more vibrant,” Mr Littleproud said.

“After being hit with bushfires, drought and flooding in recent years, the Covid-19 pandemic brought with it new challenges for locals and the communities in which they live.

“Access to this funding will help local groups restart activities and maintain social

support networks in regional towns as they recover from these setbacks.

“As a regional MP, I know how tough it has been for community groups to raise necessary funds to sustain operations and provide important services across communities.

“We know that small grants can have a big impact on regional communities and this $5.7 million in further funding will help drive the recovery of our regions.”

The Government is partnering with the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal to deliver the Rebuilding Regional Communities

Program. Funding will be available from two streams to support regional initiatives.

The Micro Projects stream will provide small grants of up to $10,000 for regional communities with fewer than 50,000 people to help sustain local organisations and their work.

The Covid Recovery stream will provide up to $50,000 for larger projects that will enhance the recovery of communities affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Warwick Bridge Club wrap

By Neil Bonnell, Warwick Bridge Club The Annual General Meeting of the Bridge Club will be held in the clubhouse at 11.30am on Monday 14 March and will followed by lunch.

Nominations have been received for all committee positions.

Last Friday Beverly Bonnell made a spectacular return to bridge after some weeks off.

She helped partner to a win in the North/ South section with a score of 70 per cent.

One of her several top scores was made on Board 25 (above).

Beverly, (sitting South) opened 1C (Precision) showing at least 16 high points; West overcalled 1S and North found a bid of 2C, which showed 5-8 points (only a small fib), which gave Beverly an indication that game could be made.

East/West countered by competing with their spades, bidding as high as 4S over Beverly’s 4H. North had remained quiet after that first daring bid.

To jolt North into action, Beverly then bid 5D forcing North to make a choice.

North put her back into hearts. 5H finally kept East/West quiet.

West won the first trick with the King of spades, but dummy made the choice of continuation difficult.

Finally a club hit the table, which was won by South’s Ace. Beverly then made two key plays: the first was to play the Ace of hearts immediately, which felled the King and the second was to ruff the nine of spades in dummy.

It was then just a matter of drawing East’s remaining trumps and cashing five diamond winners. Twelve tricks were made and a top result scored on this board.

Results: Monday, 28/02/22 (6 & ½-table Mitchell): N/S N. Collins D. Moran (70.3)

Creedence in Warwick Creedence: The John Fogerty Show is playing at Warwick RSL on Friday 29 April.

This is a chance for audiences in Warwick and surrounding areas to experience Australia’s No. 1 tribute to the classic and timeless rock music of songwriter, guitarist and singer, John Fogerty - legendary frontman of Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR).

Presented by Jabba Entertainment, audiences can expect the concert to be a high quality production, which includes a HD screen showing visuals and a full-blown light show.

World-class frontman Andre Lemberg fronts the tribute band and delivers the powerful and emotive Fogerty voice.

Blood Rule, one of Australia’s best emerging swamp rock bands, will join him.

The greatest hits of both CCR and Fogerty’s solo careers will be played, including

favourites like Bad Moon Rising, Fortunate Son, Green River, Proud Mary, Suzie Q, Run Through The Jungle, Born on the Bayou, The Old Man Down The Road, and many more.

Audiences will also be treated with some Texas boogie to open the show, as OZ ZZ TOP rips through a fun set of greatest hits including Sharp Dressed Man, Tush, La Grange, Gimme All Your Lovin, and more.

This not-to-be missed show will be a funfilled ride back in time to experience classic rock ‘n roll at its best.

Tickets are available through OZTIX, at bit. ly/3AXtdSa Ticket price: $30 + BF For more information, visit Jabba Entertainment’s website (jabba.com.au), Facebook page, or email info@jabba.com.au

SPORT WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

The Spin Vale Warne, King of Spin I like sports fans and people across the world was devastated by the news of the death of Shane Warne.

The news delivered to me by my partner in Spin around midnight on Friday night. I was sound asleep when P woke me to deliver the tragic news and frankly, I thought she’d gone a little crazy because it has been a crazy time in the Spin household recently.

A quick look at my phone confirmed the news. Time stood still – it was a moment I will never forget as I tried to comprehend the words I was reading and hearing.

I had been gutted earlier in the day to hear Rod Marsh had passed away and had been trying to process that news. I always felt a special connection with Rod ‘Bacchus’ Marsh.

Marsh the brash young ‘wickey’ debuted for Australia at the Gabba in the first Test against the Poms during the 1970/71 series. During that game, on a very hot November afternoon a bloke who looked a bit like me in those days, may or may not have souvenired a stump during a break in play because of bad light.

Thanks to the late Lew Cooper ‘that stump’ holds pride of place in my lounge room. So, Bacchus took his first catch behind the stumps against the Poms (the first of four in the game) and I snatched my first and only stump. I always thought it has a nice symmetry.

However, as a ‘broken down leggie’, I was in awe of S K Warne from the moment I saw ‘that ball.’ You all know the one – the ball of the century that dismissed a still bemused Mike Gatting. The delivery he always said was a fluke and that he could never repeat.

Warne was nothing short of a sorcerer with a cricket ball making it do impossible things.

Shane Warne reinvented the dying art of leg spin bowling. He made every kid and every old kid want to turn the ball in the way he did. His stats and his records speak to his uncanny ability and gift.

However, there was so much more that he bought to the table. Like Rod Marsh decades before he bought a brashness to cricket.

He made it cool to be a cricket follower or a cricketer. He was the likeable Aussie larrikin who never seemed to take himself too seriously in spite of his talent.

By his own admission had plenty of flaws and made mistakes but he owned them. He never denied them, never tries to explain them away and it was what endeared him to most mere mortals.

There were many layers to Warnie.

He was a student of the history of the game and acknowledged by his peers and cohort as having one of the sharpest brains ever seen in the game. The plaudits he received from Sir Donald Bradman placed him firmly in a league of his own.

I have had the very good fortune to spend many hours with Ian Healy and John Buchanan during a number of Wanderers tours.

Not surprisingly Shane Warne often came up in conversation.

The pair were closer than most to Warne but their relationships with him vastly different. While Buchanan the coach was in awe of Warne’s magic with the ball and his cricket brain their differences put them solar systems apart.

Healy, privy to the best seat in the house, behind the stumps for years as Warne weaved his magic counted him a mate .

Both spoke of life on tour with Warnie as vastly different experiences.

Buchanan driven to distraction and Heals recounting some of the antics that set Warnie apart from the rest.

Behind the façade there was someone very special.

In some way complex but in other ways a humble human being. A man more interested in the other person in the room than himself who loved to analyse people. A trait that helped him as he honed his craft.

CRISPS COACHES GOLF DAY

RIP Shane Keith Warne 1969 - 2022.

A man who loved his children and family above all else. That love and his close friendships laid bare for the world to see in the past week. The outpouring of grief and support for the family he held so dearly coming from all corners of the world.

Shane Warne re-energised cricket at a time when it needed it. He made it cool and gave everyone a reason to watch. Whether you loved or hated him he made you pay attention.

For me it was pure joy to see him walk to his mark at the Gabba on day one of the first test at the Gabba always wearing those cricket boots with the tell-tale splash of red.

A hush silencing the crowd in expectation of what was to come.

It is hard to fathom that when cricket returns to our screens next summer, we will not see Warnie doing a pitch report, analysing a field placement, or signing autographs and posing for selfies. Critiquing bowlers, batters and handing out constructive criticism to captains, ours and opposition or giving his time and tips to the next crop of young budding leggies.

While few of us knew him, we all felt we knew him. He was Warnie. Perhaps the greatest bowler and one of the best cricketers we will ever see.

He was a star, a superstar one that burned brighter than the rest - but above all else he was comfortable with who he was, simply Shane Keith Warne.

RIP Rod Marsh (1949- 4 March 2022) ; RIP Shane K Warne (1969 – 4 March 2022) -Casey (There is little space remaining in my home for cricket memorabilia with the Don taking pride of place but I’m sure there will soon be space somewhere for S K Warne).

SHINING PERFORMANCE IN RESCHEDULED CUP Weather conditions forced the cancellation of

the ladies section of the Apple and Grape Cup on Saturday 26 February as the Stanthorpe Golf course was lashed by heavy rain and conditions on course deteriorated.

Play was rescheduled for Wednesday, 2 March and the strong field enjoyed fine conditions. Lisa Stuart continues to shine and using all of her golfing skills to claim the Cup. Stuart returned a nett 74 and was closely followed by runner up Nikki Waterworth with 77 nett. The run down went to Mei Bell and Lynette Ludlow. Pin shots were won by Lisa Stuart on 17th and Linda Kelly on the 12th and 5/14th.

FINE PERFORMANCES ON THE RANGE A good field gathered at the Risdon Range for the Southern Downs Rifle club weekly comepitition with competitors shooting from the 300yard mound.

There were some fine performances and excellent scores during the course of the morning. In the F Class Open Kevin Jones and Kate Sexton both shot very well. Jones missed a maximum score by just one point while runner up Kate Sexton scored an impressive 124.12.

Richard McKillop scored a win in the Standard class and in the popular Sporter / Hunter class honours went the way of Curtis Grey.

Bo Tyllyer was successful in the Military Rifle class.

Results 300 yard F Class Open:- (Max 126) Kevin Jones (125.15): Kate Sexton (124.12); Neil Sexton (122.7), Bruce McAllan(119.9).

Standard:- (Max 126) Richard McKillop (118.6); Greg Wilson (116.6).

Sporter/Hunter:- (Max 105) Curtis Grey (97.4); Jade Sheehan (93.3); Jamie Squires (91.3); Ben Squires (81.3); Brendan Bunting (81.2); Gail Hannaford (80); Abby Hannaford (77).

The Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Festival golf days wrapped up last Friday with play in the Crisps’ Coaches two person.

The uncertain weather and flooding kept a number of intending players away on the day, but still a good field turned out for the event.

Conditions were tough. It was no surprise that the course was quite wet and there was not much run on the ball. Although conditions looked tough plenty of scores came in at par level and it looked as if it was going to be a tight finish and then along came Darryl Boekholt and Ken Rossington who returned 63 ¾ to claim the win.

After parring most holes both players managed to achieve chip in birdies which was a great help to their scoring.

The team of Ian Harvey and N. Sue See (Bribie Island) were the front runners for most of the day. They were in the club house with 68 ¼. In the end they had to settle for the runner up prize. The pair also went close to a parr round but found the birdies very elusive.

Ivan Juriss and Gregg Steele combined well to collect the first run down with 69 ½ and Barry Jones and Marie Cook the final run down with nett 71.

The Men’s pin shots were claimed by Dave Pelan at three, Darryl Boekholt at 12 and Ian Harvey at 17.

The Ladies’ pins were won by Lyn Ludlow at 12 and Nikki Waterworth at 17 while the third went unclaimed.

Thanks to Crisps Coaches for their continued support of this event and to Russell Crips who played the event.

Earlier in the week, the washed out ladies’ Apple and Grape Cup was replayed on Wednesday and fortunately the weather favoured the replay staying fine for the event.

The good form of Lisa Stuart continued and as the winner of the Ladies event she and Men’s Cup winner, Greg Fraser, will hold the title for two years until the 2024 Apple and Grape Festival.

It is back to normal Club competition this weekend and members will be playing for the March monthly medal and putting competition. The round is sponsored by Beckett’s Pest Control. There is a time sheet for the medal round on the board at the club.

A reminder to members that the deadline for dues has now passed and should you be unfinancial and playing in the event, you are ineligible to win.

MITCHELL SHIELD RESULT DECIDED IN COMMITTEE ROOM The final of the Mitchell shield comepitition between Toowoomba (who finished top of the table) and the defending Shield holders Stanthorpe was to be played in Toowoomba on Feb 27 however the game was washed out. The Stanthorpe Cricket Association was hoping the final would be rescheduled and played on Sunday, 13 March. There was across the board disappointment when a decision was handed down by the DD&SWQ Cricket Senior Sub Committee to award the 2022 Mitchell shield to Toowoomba. Stanthorpe had no input into the meeting and/or the decision and were notified by email.

An appeal lodged by Stanthorpe Cricket to the DD&SWQ Management Committee was unsuccessful. The original decision to award the Mitchell Shield to Toowoomba without a grand final being played was upheld.

WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

SPORT

Casey O’Connor

With players and officials in Stanthorpe desperate for the opportunity to defend their title on the paddock an appeal was made to Queensland Country Cricket earlier this week.

At that appeal the decision was again upheld in favour of the DD&SWQ Subcommittee.

It is a disappointing end for Stanthorpe players to their Mitchell Shield defence. Although there is a rule covering the contingency of an abandoned final, the Stanthorpe players were keen to replay the final this weekend.

Many believe this decision is not in the spirit of the game or the best interest of the Mitchell Shield competition.

Stanthorpe Cricket however will move on with players now focusing on the round 14 games this weekend. Comepitition leaders Souths will play Wanderers while all eyes will be on the game between RSL and Valleys. The semi-final will be played on 19 March followed by the grand final the following weekend, 26 March.

A reminder that the SCA presentation night will be held at the Stanthorpe RSL on Saturday 19 March following the semi-final. ($30 per person and $17 for children under 12). Numbers are required by Tim Harslett asap.

Winner of the Ladies Apple & Grape Cup Lisa Stuart left pictured with runner up Nikki Waterworth.

BUSY WEEK AT SOUTHERN CROSS In the past week, the Southern Cross Bowls Club received more than its fair share of rain once again. It was however fortunate that bowlers were able to play last Thursday before “Huey” sent it down again.

A team made up entirely of Southern NRL supports, complete with Bunnies on their bowls took on the “Rest.” It seems that the Bunnies struggled on the wet track. In the end Darcy Furness, Cameron Wilson and Val Gray kicked their little tails. Penny, Rob Francis and Thea Francis went down 10 - 5. N (Perhaps they needed a lucky rabbit’s foot) Bill and Wayne have the green running nicely and it saw plenty of action in the Men’s A Grade Singles last weekend.

On Sunday, it was Wayne Foster who came to grief after some heavy rain and was beaten

by Barry Frame.

Meanwhile on anther rink Kim Hankinson defeated Cameron “Yowie” Wilson in a close game. Barry Ziebell wore down Barry Frame to score a ,e25-16 win. Ziebell’s win has propelled him into the final this Saturday where he will play Kim Hankinson in what is sure to be an exciting game. The action starts at 10.00am and spectators are welcome.

Today, Thursday (10/3) Val Gray is organising Social Bowls which will get under way at 4pm. Please call Val (0409 611 930) if you would like to play.

On Saturday, (12) the club is holding their St Patrick’s Day Celebration. It is a Social Mixed Bowls event sponsored by Val Gray starting at 1pm. To be sure, to be sure this will be a fun day. Plenty of prizes are being offered including $50 for the best dressed female and $50 for the best dressed male (Irish theme of course) an$400 prize pool for the bowlers. Everyone is welcome, simply arrive at the club by 12.30pm ready to play by 1pm. Everyone is then invited to stay on and enjoy some Irish stew and a brew. If you are chasing more details, please call Cheryl 0407 641 158.

For barefoot bowls, social and competition bowls, functions and bar, don’t go past the Southern Cross Bowls Club Inc. Located across the road from St Mary’s Church in Warwick.

You can follow the club activities on Facebook or contact the Secretary, Cheryl on 0407 641 158 if you require further information.

REDBACKS FINISH ON TOP OF TABLE Congratulations to the Warwick Redbacks who have claimed the 2021/22 Minor Premiership.

Redbacks finished the season on 49 points and ahead of defending premiers Maryvale (48 points).

Due to the weather conditions last week the final round of club fixtures in the Warwick Cricket Association comepitition were washed out.

RIP Rod Marsh 1949-2022. lora 33.5; Wheatvale 23.5; Sovereign Animals 23.0.

The run to the grand final now begins with the WCA Quarter Finals this weekend.

All ‘A’ Grade games will be 50 overs with a 10am start. Reserve grade games will be 40 overs and get under way at 12.30pm.

On Saturday Colts meet Victoria Hill in the ‘A’ Grade knock out game at Slade Oval.

In the Reserve Grade game Allora meet Wheatvale on the turf at Queen’s Park.

On Sunday all eyes will be on the ‘A’ Grade clash between Redbacks and Maryvale at Slade Oval with the winner progressing straight to the Grand final and the loser to play the winner of the Colts Vic Hill game the following weekend.

No doubt everyone will be paying close attention to the weather forecast for this weekend.

Good luck to all teams.

SOGGY SUNDAY Stanthorpe Sporters did not allow a little rain to dampen their spirits on Sunday morning as the group approached their nine-hole round of golf. Fortunately, the showers abated but while it was dry overhead there was plenty of moisture underfoot on the front nine.

Terry Byrne returned the best round of the morning, nett 23 and collected the winner’s prize. Byrne also collected the pin shot at the third hole landing just on the green by a matter of millimetres.

Gary Kirby finished two back on nett 25 to collect the runner up prize on the day.

The run down once again went to Aaron Simmers who had the next best score of nett 30 for the round.

Gross scores were tightly closely grouped, only one shot separating the top three. No surprise that it was Paul Armstrong who came out on top with a round of 42 for the nine soggy holes.

There is a slightly different format for next Sunday Sporters event. A two person Ambrose is on the list for the Maureen Bates Golf Day sponsored by Rex Bates. There is a time sheet at the club and the nine hole event is open to any and all players. Players are asked to register by 8.30am and play will get underway with a shot gun start at 9am.

APPLETHORPE COURSE A SUCCESS The Bullecourt Bounders hosted their first Bush Orienteering event in 2022 last Sunday and were very pleased to welcome 40 competitors to the Applethorpe location. Ten students from St Joseph’s School, Stanthorpe joined the more experienced group. Many used the event to hone their bush navigation skills ahead of the Downs Regional Orienteering trials being

held in the Leyburn Forest today.

Despite threatening weather, most competitors managed to get around their course before the rain began. Those that didn’t still managed to finish their run although soaked through.

APPLE AND GRAPE TRIPLES A FUN DAY A little rain on the green may have kept some players away but it did not dampen the enthusiasm of those who played the Apple and Grape club selected Triples Fun Day. At the Summit Bowls club.

Aaron manned the BBQ preparing and cooking Sausage Sizzle and made sure everyone was well fed and fuelled for the afternoon ahead.

The format of changing positions after six ends fun was a success. Although it was challenging it ensured an even playing field for all.

The winners with the highest winning margin of plus nine was the team of Maree Ball, Brian Brown and Tina Schubert.

Maree Ball, Brian Brown and Tina Schubert defeated John Fairley, Cliff Jones and Sylean Fairley 21-12.

Sandra Pianta,(Texas), Keith Mungall and Carl Sutherland defeated Peter Balmer, Graeme Warner and Aaron Ritchie 18-14 Texas visitor, Nic Pianta joined Trudy Elder (Inglewood) and Jamie Zamprogno defeating Bill Calvert, (Gympie) Jacqui Ritchie and Tony Schubert 18-10.

Given the conditions it was good to see some visitors on the green.

Winners of the Lucky Pot Prizemoney draws were Keith Mungall, Tony Schubert, Carl Sutherland, John Fairley, Graeme Warner and Bill Calvert. The prizemoney for the day was donated by the Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Harvest Festival Committee Thanks to Aaron for looking after the BBQ and the bar staff for keeping players hydrated and to Peter Ayerst for organising the format for the day’s game.

With the A & G behind us, this Saturday the programme at the Summit Bowls reverts to Social Bowls this Saturday.

On Sunday many Summit Bowlers will play the Warwick East Open Fours Carnival.

A reminder that Saturday 19 March the Summit Club will host the SDMDBA Men’s District Pairs (Sectional) followed by the Post Sectional play on Sunday 20 March Tuesday 22nd March is the popular Turkey

Triples competition.

THREE MALLET DISCIPLINES ON GRANITE BELT The weather gods were kind to Stanthorpe Croquet players over the past week. While their Warwick counterparts were confronted with a wet and soggy lawn preventing any play, the Mallet players in from the Granite Belt dodged the rain and were able to play three disciplines.

The Association croquet group opened the month on Tuesday 1/3 with two games.

The experience of Joy Newman was on display as she played against Grace Howard and Pauline Smith. Newman very well and scored one peel and one run of two on her way to a convincing a 22-13 win. The second game between Carol Verwey and Jenny Tunbridge was much closer. Both played very well. Verwey had two runs of two in the game and Tunbridge scored one run of two before she took the win 24-23.

On Wednesday (2/3) the Golf Croquet group took to the court.

The strong combination of Shirley Page (7) and Sharyn Roser (6) was able to outplay Kim Foster (2) and Liz Ellway (3). Roser scored some accurate long shots to take hoops and Page was at the top of her game.

Shirley Evans (6) and Di Wren (6) also played well and scored a win over Bev Sullivan (2) and Jennifer Gleadhill (2). Evans showed her experience executing a particularly difficult long jump shot during the game.

After the break there was one more game played. With only six players available Ellway (4), Foster (4), and Sullivan (3) played Wren (4), Page (3), and Gleadhill (2) scoring an 11-9 win.

Despite several attempts to score a hole in one Foster came up empty handed but played well in this game.

On Friday, the Gateball players successfully dodged the rain. Jenny Tunbridge, Heather Widderick, Joy Newman and Irene Peachey won the toss and elected to play the white balls. Their opponents (playing red balls) were Les Williams, Grace Howard and Sharyn Roser.

In hindsight, perhaps the choice or white balls may not have been a good move with reds dominating the opening game. Grace Howard was in good form with both her long and short shots. Newman also had some accurate long shots but unfortunately it was not enough to stop reds cleaning up with a 23-8 score line. Included in the winning score were four Agaris.

The second game was much closer. Reds were well in front when Widderick playing for gate three, managed to put three balls through after a very long shot and went on to Agari.

Her efforts narrowed the gap; however, Reds scored their second win the score 12-10.

From page 45 In the third game, Roser and Howard went slightly off form playing the white balls against Tunbridge, Newman and Peachey playing red.

Irene Peachey began to find form and played some accurate shots during the final two games. Whites struggled to get their balls into play allowing Reds to dominate gates two and three kept the white balls off the court and they claimed another win. the score 10-7.

The final game was closer but as had been the way all day those playing the red balls got the upper hand early in the game and went on to score a 16-12 win in a a game where each team scored an Agari.

GOOD TURN OUT FOR MONTHLY TRIPLES A total of 14 teams played the Warwick Bowls Club Monthly Triples event which was held on Tuesday 1st March. In spite of all of the recent rain the green played well above expectation with the green keeper and helpers doing a great job.

NRL KICK OFF Here we are after a week of tragedy in the cricket world many sports fans will be happy to refocus as the 2022 NRL season kicks off to night.

The season opens with the defending Premiers the Panthers taking on the well fancied Sea Eagles at Blue Bet stadium at the foot of the mountain. Many are tipping the premiers to go back to back in 2022 but that has proved a bridge too far for some very good teams. It is sure to be a well-covered topic during the season.

On Friday night the Raiders and Sharks kick off their season at GIO Stadium in the national capital with a 5pm kick off for the Queensland supporters of those teams.

The much anticipated clash between the Bunnies and the Broncos follows with a 7pm kick off at Suncorp Stadium which was recently resembled a lake rather than a football field.

The likely hood of this match going ahead looked doubtful. That the Suncorp surface has recovered is a reminder to everyone what a magnificent venue Suncorp is and what a great job the staff have done.

There will be plenty of interest when the final run on team for the Broncos is announced with former Bunnies captain and now Broncos leader Adam Reynolds to be given until an hour before play to prove his fitness after he contracted COVID last week.

If the playmaker is unavailable the team will be under the capable guidance of Kurt Capewell. The Bunnies will be stepping out for their first NRL appearance under new coach Jason Demetriou.

Three games will be played on Saturday with the Roosters taking on the Knights at the SCG. The Roosters welcome back play maker Luke Keary after he missed the majority of last season with injury. Plenty of interest in this game as Keary and Sam Walker combine for the first time.

The Warriors and the Dragons will be in action at the Sunshine Coast Stadium at 3.30pm.

Dragons fans will be hoping their team can bring their recent trial form to the table.

The game between the Tigers and Melbourne Storm looks on paper to be a mismatch and it would be a huge shock if the Storm who have an enviable first round winning record were to be beaten.

The Eels host the Titans in their season opener, and many believe these two sides have the opportunity to figure at the top end of the ladder in 2022.

The NQ Cowboys play the Bulldogs at Qld Country Bank stadium in Townsville. Plenty of questions will be asked of both teams this season. The Dogs have a new look side with plenty of star and strike power joining the kennel. The Cowboys have welcomed back their spiritual leader JT. Thurston will add his expertise to the coaching staff and mentor younger players. Unfortunately, the Cowboys might be more in need of a little of that magic JT brings on the field.

Good luck with your tips and team this season. How round one pans out is always an unknown, but this is how I see it.

AGM REPORTS ON SUCCESSFUL YEAR The Warwick Sporters club recently held their AGM. Outgoing President Keith Farrell and Treasurer Con Seibel confirmed the Sporters’ Club had enjoyed had another sterling year in both golf and monetary terms. For those interested in statistics, in 2021 Sporters members played 2887 rounds of golf with an average weekly field of 63 players per round.

Despite another challenging year, Sporters donated in excess of $31K ( excluding water levies) to their parent club, the Warwick Golf Club. These funds were primarily to support to the purchase of new machinery.

It is interesting to note that in the four year period 2019 – 2022, Sporters donations to the parent club amounted to a little shy of $100K thereby contributing significantly to the much acclaimed presentation of our course.

The AGM also voted to maintain the annual subscription fees at $10 for the 2022 season but members were reminded that No membership equals No prizes.

The incoming Sporters Committee for the 2022 year is Terry Bennett ( President), Don Warrener (Treasurer), Garry Hanson ( Secretary) with committee members Keith Farrell, Robin Farrell, Con Seibel, Bob Lester, Don Stewart and Trevor King.

In the face of the club’s strong financial position the new executive will be holding further discussions with the executive of the parent club to discuss contributing to further course improvements. Sporters annual subs for the 2022 year are now due.
