A fire-fighting strike team watches a fire front approach from the west in the Victoria Valley in the southern Grampians. The Jensens Road fire, which started from a lightning strike, joined two other fires as it burnt out of control towards the Victoria Range earlier this week. The fire-fighting team used a strategic back-burn to save the farming property where Wimmera photographer Lynton Brown took the photograph. Mr Brown from Lynton Brown Landscapes captured the impact of the fire as it unfolded. For more pictures, see page 16.

Delahunty leads push HAM S R O H in sporting drug fight

M

ember for Lowan Hugh Delahunty has led the charge in a national push to protect the integrity of Australian sport in the wake of the drug scandal rocking high-profile sporting codes.

This would include projects requiring help from ministers across a variety of portfolios.

Victorian Sports Minister Mr Delahunty, fearing the long as well as short-term impact of the issue on the sport-loving community, joined state sports ministers from across the country in agreeing to act ‘immediately to strengthen the integrity of sport’.

Mr Delahunty managed at short notice to organise a meeting of all state and territory sporting ministers in Melbourne late last week.

Seriousness Details in an official communiqué from the meeting outlined how the ministers heard first-hand of the seriousness of an Australian Crime Commission investigation into organised crime and drugs in sport.

It also detailed how the ministers were ‘committed to work together on a collaborative national response’.

Notes from the meeting revealed that the ministers received advice through the ACC findings that ‘professional sport in Australia was vulnerable to organised criminal infiltration through both legitimate business relationships with sports

The ministers agreed to use an agreed-to formula that resulted in a National Policy on Match-Fixing in Sport in June 2011 to create policies that ensured broader integrity of sport in Australia.

The projects would include:

franchises, and through personal relationships between professional athletes and organised criminal identities and groups’.

Ministers supported the actions of sporting codes in immediately addressing the issues raised in the ACC report and urged them to work as quickly as possible with authorities to complete investigations.

The ministers agreed the ACC report provided an alert to everyone involved in sport to improve their safeguards against doping and to ‘actively’ do something about it.

• Fast-tracking the implementation of the National Policy on Match-Fixing in Sport, with particular emphasis on introducing criminal offences for match-fixing and sports betting legislation which provides sports the power to ban bet types that raise integrity issues;

• Backed by the largest retailer of computer and electrical goods in Australia • Huge range of products IN STOCK for immediate purchase • Flexible payment options *2 cash, credit, finance and rental*2 • We use only certified repairers for warranty work

• Developing strategies that deal with substance abuse in sport; • Addressing unethical practices in sports that are beyond doping and the World Anti-Doping Code; and • Addressing issues of probity to ensure commercial and other relationships within sport are free of criminal influences.

Australian Sport Ministers made a commitment ‘to stand with the vast majority of Australian sports men and women who act with integrity and play by the rules’ and acknowledged ‘that an overwhelming proportion of athletes, officials, volunteers and fans have zero tolerance for unethical behaviour in sport.’

Fisheries officers issue yabby change reminder A senior fisheries officer has urged yabby enthusiasts across the region to keep up to date with new regulations regarding catch limits and ways to capture the popular freshwater crayfish.

Murray Burns said Fisheries Victoria introduced regulation changes at the end of October last year and it was important

for people yabbying in public waters to be aware of the rules.

“The new regulations are in the 2013 Victorian Recreation Fishing Guide and also on the Fisheries Victoria website and I urge everyone who plans to go yabbying in public waters to know the rules,” he said Mr Burns answered questions from The Weekly Adver-

“People might not know but there have been changes involving the types of net that can be used and catch limits.

It is important to understand what now applies,” Mr Burns said.

Yabby enthusiasts can now

use ‘open top lift nets’ as well as hoop nets to catch yabbies in public waters. They are restricted to 10 nets of either or a combination of both. Opera house nets are still banned and open top lift nets have size restrictions.

A 12-month amnesty applies regarding open top lift nets and will regulations will become law on November 1 unless revoked earlier.

Friends, family rally for victims

F

riends of a former Horsham woman who with members her family watched their house become inundated with water during the Queensland floods have launched an appeal for help.

Cathy Bamford of Horsham, a close friend of Leanne Wilkinson, nee Lawson, is leading the appeal and calling for businesses and individuals to provide gift-card donations.

She said Mrs Wilkinson, who lived with her husband Mike and Grace at Bundaberg, had lost ‘everything’ in the flood.

“It’s the second time they have been caught up in the floods and everything of value that they had is gone,” she said.

had to leave the property in a tinnie and were left with virtually nothing except the clothes they were wearing.

“They had just managed to get the house back to normal after the 2010 flood and Mike, in the process of developing a greenhouse business, lost everything as his venture came to a grinding halt.”

Mrs Bamford said the family was waiting for insurance cover had taken between six to nine months to come through after the previous flood. This meant the family was living day to day and in immediate need of many items.

“Some businesses have already donated a lot of goods.

Mrs Wilkinson said from Queensland, as the community braced for more heavy rain, that she was ‘eternally grateful’ for the help her family had received.

“We’re renting a house from friends on the dry side of town at the moment. We didn’t have any clothing but now we do and I thank everyone who has donated items. I’m keen to let them know that we appreciate very much what they have done to help and I will be back in Horsham later in the year to say thank-you personally,” she said.

Mrs Bamford said people could drop off gift cards at Horsham business Curtains by Robyn Creek in McPherson street opposite Horsham Basketball Stadium.

“It doesn’t have to be much.

It might be $10. It’s all appreciated,” she said.

She said people seeking clarification on any issues could call her on 0427 811 294.

College to benefit from new centre

A

partnership between Longerenong College near Horsham and international company Bayer CropScience is set to consolidate agricultural tertiary study opportunities in western Victoria.

Horsham businessman John Ackland, who as chief of Workco oversees college operations, said Bayer CropScience’s decision to develop a $14-million crop-breeding centre at the school, the first of its kind in Australia, represented yet another chapter in college redevelopment.

“This Bayer project is very important to us and the growth of the college and to students’ access to training and research,” Mr Ackland said.

“It’s just another part of the jigsaw for us in going forward and developing and growing Longerenong for the future.”

Mr Ackland said student interest in the college was growing annually by 10 percent a year, reflecting a dramatic change in circumstances from the past when the future of the institution was in limbo.

“Student interest is fantastic. We couldn’t be more pleased with the growing acceptance of Longerenong College and its growing student numbers. We’re looking forward to a strong future in agriculture.”

Mr Ackland agreed that a partnership with a major international

company and project provided a new dimension to college development.

was ‘essential for the future success of farmers’.

“It’s great for the college but also for the region to have someone like Bayer CropScience doing wheat and oilseed breeding in the region and developing positions and jobs which we all know are very important. The student access to that research is going to be absolutely fantastic,” he said.

“Through our associations with John and his team and students at the college – and with Workco, Wimmera Development Association and the State Government – we will ignite new passion in Australian agriculture,” she said.

Passion Bayer CropScience managing director Jackie Applegate told guests at a sod-turning ceremony that Bayer’s investment in Longerenong confirmed its commitment to agricultural education and the partnership between business and science which

Delahunty heads thrust on sport’s drug scandal EDITORIAL

By DEAN LAWSON We take our hats off to Member for Lowan Hugh Delahunty for his swift action in quickly organising a meeting with fellow state sport ministers over the drugs-in-sport scandal last week.

Mr Delahunty, with an indepth understanding of the value of our sporting culture having played with Essendon, was off the mark in a shot and his ability to get all the people who mattered together in a room in Melbourne last week was impressive.

While it remains to be seen whether what the ministers agreed to will have any farreaching results in consolidating the integrity of Australian sport, Mr Delahunty’s swift action showed he meant business.

Many of us remain unsure of how deep or shallow the whole issue is that rocked Australia’s elite sporting world earlier this month.

What we do know is that while there is a considerable amount of smoke suggesting a fire is well and truly burning somewhere, many individuals, clubs and organisations have found themselves unfair-

ly tarred with the same brush.

Direction to put things right, to provide the average Australian with a feeling of security that our champions are setting elite standards by simple hard work and talent without artificial or even criminal leverage, must start at the top.

Mr Delahunty’s action at short notice demonstrated a clear understanding of this need.

We wait with bated breath to see whether what the ministers recommended goes some way to extinguishing a dangerous fire.

Yabby regulations miss the mark Some of us fear that one our prized home-grown possessions, the humble yabby, is under serious threat from over-fishing.

We also worry that changes to Fisheries Victoria regulations on the capture of yab-

bies, introduced late last year, show a disregard for other aquatic animals.

The most serious changes are the types of nets yabby hunters are now allowed to use in public waters and the amount of yabbies individuals may have on their possession if they can prove they have been yabbying for three days.

Some of the changes, such as protection of yabbies with eggs, make sense. But to allow yabby hunters up to 10 pyramid nets, officially called ‘open top lift nets’, combined with a three-day maximum catch of 90 litres or about three wheat bags, opens the door for someone to quickly wipe out a yabby population in a public swamp. Such nets are also a serious hazard to freshwater turtles and platypuses.

The regulations on what people can and cannot do are also complicated and ambiguos.

something we back wholeheartedly.

“We need to attract the best minds to agriculture through innovative and inspiring educational opportunities.

“We are committed to enhancing every student’s experiences at the college through shared research and contact with our scientists at the breeding centre.

“Our industry faces a serious skills shortage. Enrolments into tertiary agriculture courses have suffered; there is a lack of skilled labour and wages have been uncompetitive.

“We are also committed to embrace the best technology has to offer both in terms of science and opportunity.

“The Blueprint got it right – people are the focus, and our partnership addresses this issue through unparalleled opportunities for shared knowledge and learning at Longerenong College.”

“People have been highlighted today as one of the most essential areas of focus in the Blueprint for Australian Agriculture – and this is

Walsh: Crop centre an economic victory

V

ictorian Agriculture Minister Peter Walsh has described a $14-million Bayer CropSciences wheat and oilseeds centre project at Longerenong College near Horsham as an economic and cross-cultural win for regional Australia.

“It’s very exciting obviously for the Wimmera-Mallee but also for Victoria and Australia in general,” he said.

“For a start it’s a $14-million investment which means 20 jobs plus some seasonal employment.

“This is one of seven sites around the world that Bayer CropSciences is going to build

“One of the drivers that has enabled this to happen apart from our good soils and the Longerenong opportunity was the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline.

This project is actually one of the beneficiaries of the pipeline.

and one of the things they are going to do is rotate staff between those sites. People who work at Longerenong will have opportunity to go to other countries to work in crop-breeding facilities and, vice-versa, people will come

here which will be great for the dynamics of the area.”

Mr Walsh said the decision to base the centre at Longerenong College at Dooen would result in a long-term partnership between big business and education and in-

“Bayer CropSciences have a secure water supply. If you are going to spend money on crop trials you need to make sure you don’t have a drought.

With the piped supply they will have capacity to irrigate in autumn or spring to make sure they get results from their trials.

“This is one of the real flowon economic benefits that have come from the pipeline other than providing a secure water supply for communities.”

Flood heartache and work relief

By Melissa Pouliot, as part of ‘The Flowing Tale, a Wimmera Catchment Management Authority series raising awareness of a need for Wimmera River health.

H

eartbreaking? Bloody oath it was!

More than two years later, the memories of the January 2011 Wimmera floods are still as raw as the broken calluses on Dimboola farmer Brad Miles’ working-man’s hands.

“A flood is a bit like a frost, it almost happens overnight.

Everything’s going as well as can be and ‘bang’. It just cops you like that. I tell you, if I had to choose between a flood like that and years and years of drought, I know what I’d choose,” Brad said.

With three kilometres of Wimmera River frontage on the outskirts of Dimboola and some other land in the district bordering an offshoot of the river called Datchak Creek, Brad expects a bit of water on his farm during wet times.

But nothing could’ve prepared the farmer, who settled in the district with his wife Laureen in 1985, for the two waves of flood water that hit ‘like someone whacking you over the head with a block of wood’.

“There were two waves here.

The first was a local wave when we had a fair bit of rain and that did a certain amount of damage. Then there was the second wave roughly a week later. Thankfully that gave us some time to move the sheep out although we still got caught with one mob.”

Brad laughed at the memory of going out in a tinnie to rescue lambs on the edge of the river bank.

“We pushed the tinnie through the water to get to them and then chucked 15 to 20 lambs in so we could push

them back to dry land. And the buggers stood in the boat – it was such a funny sight. I couldn’t believe it and wish I had taken a photo. You’ve gotta get a laugh out of it somehow,” he said.

Sunset Brad also recalled a stunning sunset one evening as he looked over his drowned paddocks. “I remember standing on a rise looking west at sunset with a couple of kilometres of water across the floodplain and seeing a perfect mirror image of the sky in the water.

It was an absolutely magnificent scene. If it wasn’t your land and livelihood under there you’d think it was fantastic.”

The damage to 1000 acres of crop and 1500 large hay bales was financially crippling for the family. Then there was the damage to river frontage and other revegetation fencing the Dimboola-Antwerp Landcare member had done over the years through various incentive schemes.

“It wasn’t only river frontage where the water hit but it was other sloping ground where the water came down and just took out fences everywhere. It was unbelievable. I’ve never seen anything like it. You could look out over paddocks and see hundreds of acres under water,” he recalled.

Program When Brad first heard about Wimmera Catchment Management Authority’s flood employment program in June, one of five similar Victorian Government programs for the flood-ravaged state, he thought it was too good to be true.

The $6.5-million program employed work crews to help farmers with damage to river and creek frontages. The program complemented other Wimmera CMA flood-recovery projects such as clearing

flood debris from waterways, repairing the damaged stream gauge network and other work on farms by Conservation Volunteers Australia.

Wimmera CMA waterway works engineer Luke Austin said the focus was to help farmers where floods damaged waterway protection work such as fencing and vegetation.

The Wimmera program started with two crews of four.

It continued for 18 months, providing full-time employment for eight people, with 12 to 14 participants overall. The crews completed work from Elmhurst to Jeparit and all areas in-between.

Mr Austin said the program provided a variety of benefits.

“From an environmental perspective it was critical to reinstate these areas so the health of the region’s waterways wasn’t compromised in the wake of the floods,” he said. ”It was also great feeling for all involved to play a part in helping farmers with their longer-term flood recovery.”

Relief For Brad, the arrival of the work crew to clean up and rebuild about five kilometres of fencing was ‘a huge relief’ during a stressful time.

“That gang of blokes did absolutely great job,” Brad said.

“If I had the money I’d have them back to do contract fencing on the rest of the farm.”

Looking back, Brad said he felt he was on the road to recovery – both financially and emotionally.

“It takes a long time to recover from a flood like that.

It’s only now that I can look at some parts of the property and not get a knot in my guts over what happened.

“It certainly knocked the stuffing out of me for a long time.”

Graffiti art at gallery Veterans to meet

Thursday, February 21, 2013

More than 50 delegates from across Victoria will attend a State Council meeting of the Victorian Branch of the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia in Horsham on Saturday.

H

orsham’s Billy Williams had his first taste of art without condemnation last week.

Originally from Perth, the 23-yearold used his graffiti skills to paint a wall at Horsham Regional Art Gallery temporary home at Jubilee Hall in conjunction with a touring exhibition called SKATER – Portraits by Nikki Toole.

The State Council meeting at 9.30am will be after a 9am branch annual meeting.

The Victorian State Branch is made up of 26 sub-branches and has a membership of about 2300.

The State Council’s quarterly meeting bring together 52 delegates representing the sub-branches and the state executive of six.

Williams accepted an invitation to paint the wall in a ‘Wimmera Parklife’ section of the gallery after word spread of his talent following an art workshop led by artist Mars Drum.

Drum said she met Williams through Wimmera Uniting Care’s Aiming 4 Independence program.

Wimmera sub-branch members will attend Saturday’s gathering as observers.

“I had a lot of variety in pens at the workshop and I saw him doing this really classic graffiti-style writing,” she said.

“Billy told me he was from Perth and that he had a group of graffiti friends over there that were more like a family to him than his own family.

“He said the police would let them work on certain areas but when he came to Horsham they said straight away that they had him on record and wouldn’t be letting him paint. They even call him every now and then to remind him.”

Exhibition Drum said she spoke to a friend who worked at Horsham Rural City Council, who then passed on the idea to Horsham director Adam Harding. She said the SKATER exhibition, which opened last on Friday was the perfect opportunity to exhibit Billy’s talent.

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

State Council meetings visit regional centres to promote branch activities in rural areas and to give country members the opportunity to meet delegates and to be involved in State Council business.

Horsham mayor David Grimble and Wimmera Branch of the association Rex Dumesny will address delegates before the annual meeting.

Member for Lowan and State Government Veterans Affairs Minister Hugh Delahunty and Horsham RSL president John Brondsema will address the State Council meeting.

The event also includes a ‘meet and greet’ meeting at Horsham RSL tomorrow night.

“It just looks so impressive,” she said.

Williams said it the artwork took him about two hours and it was nice to be able to paint again since he moved from Perth in 2008.

“It’s the first time I’ve really been able to paint something legally,” he said. “I usually have to break the law.”

Williams said graffiti was all about practice and he used outlines, multiple layers of paint and black key lines to achieve the colourful image.

He said he was nervous in the lead-up

to painting the wall.

“I get anxiety, so to have that pressure was hard but I’m happy with how it turned out,” he said.

“I’m never totally happy. I see every mistake and plenty of spots where I could have done it better.

“I’m not even that good at it compared with a lot of my friends back in Perth.”

The exhibition is open at Horsham Regional Art Gallery’s temporary space at Jubilee Hall in Roberts Avenue until April 14.

West Wimmera Health Service is again preparing teams for the Murray to Moyne Cycle Relay.

The health service will enter two teams in the 24-hour 520-kilometre fund-raising relay on April 6 and 7 which finishes in Port Fairy.

Health service fund-raising coordinator Kate Kennedy said team riders and support crew members came from across the service’s catchment area.

“Riders are coming from Kaniva, Natimuk, Jeparit, Dimboola and Nhill with support crew members are from Rainbow and Nhill,” she said.

“It will be fantastic to see so many people riding their hearts

out raising funds for our local hospitals.

“The team members who are dedicating their valuable time to support West Wimmera Health Service have now commenced their training regime, so keep an eye out for them on the roads and show your support and encouragement.”

Ms Kennedy said sponsorship packages and money-raising options were available for people keen to support the teams.

“Money tins are in businesses in each town, or alternatively, if you would like to sponsor a rider or organise a fundraiser on their behalf, we would be most grateful,” she said.

Business supports fishing contest

Thursday, February 21, 2013

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

O

rganisers of this year’s Labour Day weekend fishing contest in Horsham have spoken of the generosity of the Horsham district business community in supporting the charity fund-raiser.

Contest spokesman Kevin Dellar said business and community support, the ‘critical backbone elements’ of the March 10 event, had been overwhelming.

“There is no way this competition would go vaguely close to running without the people of Horsham behind it,” he said.

“Everywhere we go there is support. We can’t stress enough that this event, since it started in 1972 has belonged to the Horsham people.”

Mr Dellar made a point of stressing background participation levels and community interest as officials assessed a constant flow of entries for The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Fishing Contest on March 10.

“Considering that things haven’t been all that bright for some businesses, I have not had a query or a quibble when we have approached them for support. They have all been prepared to back us,” he said.

“The amount of faith that the Horsham business community has shown has been enormous. A lot of them could easily turn around and say they can’t afford it. But we’ve had nothing but wholesale support. It’s wonderful.”

Support Mr Dellar said it was just as important that the average person as well as the business community supported the event.

“While the resilience and generosity of the Horsham business community has been enormous, they have been backed up by people in general who have put up their hands to get involved. They are the nuts and bolts of the event and I’ve been astonished at their application and effort,” he said.

RIDICULOUSLY FRESH

“We’re so thankful to the people of Horsham, whether they are simply the anglers or providing prizes or steward services. We’re so thankful for what they are doing for us.”

Panasonic’s unique Vitaminsafe technology and extra-large vegetable crisper provide the perfect conditions to keep all of your fresh produce ridiculously fresh.

The 36th all-prizes-must-be-won contest features an $18,700 Hyundai car as first prize.

Much of the money generated from the event goes into the coffers of community and sporting clubs providing volunteer stewards.

The fire’s miles away.

It could be here in minutes.

If you’re in two minds, leave early.

The best way to prepare for this fire season is to stay informed and plan to leave early, before you see smoke or fire.

Don’t wait and hope for the best. Plan to leave early: ü Talk to everyone you live with so you all know when you’re going to leave and where you’re going to go if a fire starts. ü Pack a relocation kit with important documents and essential items. ü Use more than one source of information for warnings. Get the most up to date information through the CFA website, the FireReady app, CFA’s social media channels such as Facebook and Twitter, local radio or the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.

Rupanyup primed for flood night

When the Flood Came, the result of State Government flood-recovery funding and a celebration of volunteer spirit, will feature Gippsland sisters

Stonefield, 1970s icon Russell Morris, blues outfit the Audreys and the WimmeraMallee’s own Brodie Glen Show.

Organisers hope the concert, at Rupanyup Recreation Reserve starting at 5pm, will attract more than 1000 people.

Yarriambiack Shire Council community, business and eco-

Thursday, February 21, 2013

nomic development manager Jaye Macumber said the region had experienced many great events recognising communities affected by the January 2011 floods.

“We hope people will enjoy this free event, even if they are not a shire resident. We were all affected and we all had a part to play in recovery over the past two years and still

do,” he said.

Yarriambiack Shire’s Cr Ray Kingston, who has worked with the committee to arrange the event, said the day was planned as a family-friendly event.

“People of all ages including the kids will love what the committee has put together,” he said.

“The musicians coming are a mix of the old and the new and will rock the community and show our great spirit.”

Patrons can bring a picnic or buy food from service groups catering for the event.

Cr Kingston said although the event was free of charge, the council was keen for people to register their attend-

Pink theme for Nhill as region welcomes TV star on unicycle challenge fundraiser Nhill Cancer Group has invited people to dress in pink and roll up to Jaypex Park in Nhill at 4pm tomorrow to cheer on Australian actor Samuel Johnson on his unicycle.

Johnson, known for his roles on shows including The Secret Life of Us, Crackerjack, Underbelly II and Rush and for his voiceover work on many commercials, is attempting to raise $1-million and breast-cancer awareness with the Love Your Sister project.

He is also attempting to set a new Guinness World Record for the greatest distance travelled on a unicycle.

Johnson’s sister Connie, who has had a long fight with cancer and is now dying from the disease, is providing inspiration for his quest.

In what initially started as a joke in the kitchen, Connie set her brother the toughest challenge she could think of and the challenge turned into a promise.

Johnson aims to complete his journey in 12 months and the Nhill community is among

communities to respond to the opportunity to be involved.

As he travels across Australia, he has asked communities to set him a dare or a ‘hairbrained challenge’.

When he visits Nhill Johnson will shear a sheep. It will happen about 6pm.

Other planned activities, starting from 4pm, will include three-legged, egg and spoon and relay races and hula hoop competitions.

Nhill Lions Club will be cooking a barbecue and cool drinks will be available.

One of the promises Johnson needs to keep to his sister is to raise awareness of breast cancer and the importance of early detection.

Wimmera McGrath Foundation Breast Care nurse Liz King will spread the message on regular self-checks, screening and breast care awareness.

Johnson and his support crew are travelling together and stay each night in a purposebuilt caravan.

The group is interested in hearing if anyone

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

would like to host him for an evening meal or the night or has a spot for the van. People can contact Janine Grover on 5391 4444 to register their interest.

Dimboola Today, before he continues his trip west, Johnson will be involved in Dimboola community activities.

He will visit Dimboola District Community Bank and from 5pm will be involved in events.

Bank manager Wayne Anderson encouraged people to get involved and to also take part in a gold-coin sausage sizzle at Dimboola Bowling Club after main street activities.

What’s on

Community Grants Program

Food at Temporary Events

Local not-for-profit community groups are being encouraged to apply for an Ararat Rural City Council Community Grant.

All organisations/businesses providing food at temporary events must now be registered.

Willaura Hospital Outdoor Market

Mayor Cr Ian Wilson said the grants were open to groups that needed help to fund projects and activities that build healthy and vibrant communities, sustain community infrastructure or attract visitors to the area.

A new registration and notification website has been launched for » temporary and mobile food businesses » community groups selling food

Applications for this round of the grants program close on February 28.

The new website Streatrader allows registration and notification of temporary and mobile food businesses.

Cr Wilson said the grants were an excellent way for groups across the municipality to obtain funding for projects and programs they might not otherwise be able to achieve because of cost.

It allows for the completion of forms online with your principal council – identified by where you:

“The Council really values the contribution our many community groups make to the fabric and vibrancy of our region, and Council feels it’s very important to support them in their work,” he said.

“The grants not only help fund important projects, they encourage community groups to work together to share and benefit from the resources available to them.

“I really encourage groups who have a project they want to achieve to apply for a grant. It might just be the extra financial support you need to make an idea a reality.”

Ararat Rural City Council offers the community grants in three rounds each year allocated in March, July and November.

For this round of funding, groups need to complete an application form and submit it to Council by February 28.

Cr Wilson said the grants provide support for projects, programs and equipment of a sporting, recreational, cultural, environmental and community service nature.

That could include things like community health and wellbeing programs, historical displays, programs targeted at young people, promotional materials or sporting equipment.

“It might also include the purchase of equipment that helps your group operate, whether it’s a barbecue for fundraisers or a trailer to help get your gear from A to B,” he said.

The grants cannot be used to pay for retrospective purchases, or to cover recurrent operating costs, salary subsidies or routine/cyclical maintenance. The grants are allocated on a “one off” basis, and applicants must be not-for-profit organisations or have an auspice body.

Cr Wilson said a group’s application must demonstrate that their project: » Encourages community participation and cooperation. » Has positive health, social and environmental outcomes. » Is accessible to people with special needs. » Is well planned and managed.

For a grant application form, phone Council’s Manager Community Development and Client Services Angela Hunt on 5355 0251 or email ahunt@ararat.vic.gov.au.

You can also find more information and download an application form at www.ararat.vic.gov.au/grants.

Council a finalist for major awards Northern Grampians Shire Council is a finalist in two categories of Local Government Professionals’ 2013 Awards for Excellence.

Local Government Professionals, or LGPro, is Victoria’s peak body for professionals working in local government and runs annual awards to recognise innovative projects completed by the state’s 79 councils.

hen most men his age are contemplating retirement, John Aitken is going back to school.

Rural Northwest Health chief executive Catherine Morley said Mr Aitken was an obvious choice for the study because of his strong sense of community.

The Warracknabeal pharmacist and businessman is studying for a La Trobe University PhD that he hopes will be an invaluable tool for improving the health and wellbeing of the Southern Mallee community.

Rural Northwest Health, with Heathcote Health and Rochester and Elmore District Health Service, is working with the university on community-based health projects. In each of the regions, interested people will come together to identify what is needed to improve community health.

La Trobe University’s Professor Jane Farmer, who works with Rural Northwest Health and was guest speaker at the 2011 annual meeting, has been heavily involved in the development of the project.

Professor Farmer described the project as ground breaking.

“Communities are asked their opinion and then researchers go away and develop solutions that often don’t meet community needs,” Professor Farmer said.

“This project is driven by the community. Community members will work together over a 12 to 18-month period

“John has always shown pride and interest in his community and involves himself in many activities,” Ms Morley said.

“His wife Marie is on the board at RNH so he was simply the right choice.”

Challenge Mr Aitken said he was relishing the challenge of studying again.

“In some ways I’ve never stopped studying because it’s my job to keep up with new products and methods,” Mr Aitken said.

“But realistically it’s been 35 years since I studied formally.

“I will have to be disciplined about it which is why I will spend more time at the hospital so I can focus on the work involved.”

The Aitkens have lived and worked in Warracknabeal for 25 years and John said his passion for his community had helped him understand its issues.

“Rural people don’t enjoy the same benefits as city people for various reasons and often don’t have the best health outcomes,” he said.

“But that’s not necessarily

Mayor Cr Wayne Rice said it was a great honour to be an awards finalist.

Mr Aitken said he would base his study on the initiatives that Professor Farmer introduced while studying at her local health service in a remote area of Scotland with a comparable population.

“I also plan to be talking to schools about their health requirements. It’s going to get very busy.”

Halls Gap hosts textile experts I

nternational textile experts will join leading Australian tutors to lead workshops in Hall Gap from this weekend as part of the sixth Grampians Texture event.

UP TO

Grampians Texture is a program for textile artists offering two and four-day workshops.

Tutors from England, Ireland, France and New Zealand will join Perth, Brisbane and Melbourne experts for the event.

Grampians Texture coordinator Marion Matthews said the profile of the event had steadily risen in the last six years.

“The event starting in a small way and has grown enormously in reputation and now attracts a large and very keen group of students interested in exploring new and diverse skills in textiles,” she said. “These textile mediums vary from felting, dyeing, jewellery, printing, books, dyeing, stitching by hand and machine, knitting, fabric and fibre, some traditional and others more experimental and contemporary.”

Students are travelling from across Australia

to take part and will also have the chance to see textile exhibitions by Wimmera artists such as Judith Burke and Lynette Cox Heywood’s felting and stitched textiles at The Gap Winery, Halls Gap, Helen Blandford’s interpretation of our environment in The Last Decade Drought Fire and Flood at the Kookaburra Restaurant, and Val McCann’s collagraph prints at MOCO Gallery. These exhibitions are open to the public.

Also open to the public is a Saturday afternoon market in the grounds of Mountain Grand Hotel.

“One of the really nice things that is now happening is that we are seeing a lot more day visitors taking the opportunity to visit Halls Gap while Grampians Texture is on. This allows them to see the exhibitions, explore the market, and to visit the trade area in Centenary Hall where on sale will be hard-to-source textile supplies such as silks, hand-dyed yarns, textile books, buttons, dyes and inks.”

Investing for growth or income – or both

f you own an investment property you will be aware that the return from the investment comes from two sources – income in the form of rent paid by the tenant and growth in the form of an increase in the value of the property while you own it.

Likewise from a share investment, an investor can receive dividends – income – and capital gain – growth.

Many investors who buy shares and property focus on the growth potential with income being a beneficial addition.

its value will be in a year’s time. Because the return from shares is uncertain, they are considered higher risk.

On the other hand, investments such as term deposits and bonds have as their main attraction the income return, with little or sometimes no possibility of capital growth.

That doesn’t mean shares are a bad investment. On the contrary, patient investors have been well compensated for taking on this risk. Property and shares are higher risk, but over the long term they have produced the highest returns. Cash and bonds are lower risk and produce lower returns.

Understanding risk and return When investing, risk is best thought of as uncertainty. For example, with a term deposit in a major bank we can predict with a high level of certainty what our return will be, and it is extremely unlikely that we will lose money. The level of risk is very low.

Contrast that situation with shares. If we buy a share today we can’t be certain what

NEW PARTNERSHIP: From left, Victorian Agriculture Minister Peter Walsh, Workco’s John Ackland, Bayer CropScience chief executive Jackie Applegate and Longerenong College general manager John Goldsmith during the sod-turning ceremony at a $14-million wheat and oilseed breeding centre at Longerenong.

Centre to benefit farmers A

Victorian farmers leader is confident Australian broadacre farmers will be primary beneficiaries of a $14-million wheat and oil-seed breeding centre in the heart of the Wimmera.

Victorian Farmers Federation grains group chairman Andrew Weidemann, a guest at the Bayer CropScience centre’s sod-turning ceremony at Longerenong College, said the project would provide welcome development in crop yield and performance.

“The investment from Bayer

is instrumental in developing new novel products for us as growers, particularly with wheat as a focus,” he said.

“The increase in yields through new varieties has been very slow over the last 10 years with a lot of growers getting quite frustrated with developments. So the announcement of the development of the site in the Wimmera will be instrumental in the future for wheat breeding, particularly for Victoria.

“From a national perspective it also fits into the overall strategy for a national plan for Australian research where

we’re developing global partnerships through research dollars we as growers put into the Grains Research and Development Corporation. We will see further investments here I’m sure in coming years.”

Bayer CropScience is developing the centre in partnership with Longerenong College.

Bayer CropScience global market head Rick Turner said while the breeding centre represented a significant investment for the Wimmera and Wimmera growers it also ‘spoke volumes’ about Bayer’s global commitment to plant breeding.

Regions on rebound

A

n agricultural business representative regularly travelling throughout the Wimmera-Mallee has spoken of a significant lift in confidence as the region rebounds strongly from drought and flood.

Horsham Landmark’s Mark Clyne said it was no surprise that large international players such as Bayer CropScience had seized an opportunity to establish a major presence in the region and there had been an increase in interest in agricultural study opportunities.

He said Landmark, providing broad agricultural services from merchandise, chemicals, fertiliser and livestock to real estate and insurance, had also been caught up in the region’s agricultural prospects.

“It might be something that has sneaked up our locals, but really the WimmeraMallee is ripe for business and growth,” he said.

“The Wimmera-Mallee is ripe for business and growth” Mark Clyne

“You can only judge things on what you see and experience but when you travel across the region the first thing you notice is how much the general feeling and confidence has lifted. And confidence ultimately means investment.”

Mr Clyne, who also has a farming background, said Landmark had been among many groups that were quickly adapting to a changing landscape.

“One thing that’s been obvious in the last 12 months is the reminder that we are in the middle of one of the best broadacre farming regions in the world. We had a bit of a lull before Christmas but since then

Thursday, February 21, 2013

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

it’s been all go,” he said.

“Landmark as a company is having to swing the changes to become more customer focused and of course it identified Wimmera opportunities by establishing a Horsham real estate branch with Harcourts, which is where I come in, in the middle of last year.

“As part of the need to focus on our customers we’ve also had to call on good local knowhow and expertise and that’s why Jamie Petrass from Kewell has come on as our new senior agronomist.

“This renewed confidence is in response to many factors such as a good season, low interest rates and so on. It appears from our observations at least and obviously from some big players in the marketplace that we that we as region might have stopped moving sideways and are now on the up.”

New group to meet Volunteer hunt

A newly formed Ararat Ratepayers Association will meet formally on March 4 to take memberships.

The new group has been working on becoming incorporated, forming policy and researching the best way to approach and work with Ararat Rural City Council.

Group spokesman Frank Deutsch of Lake Bolac said it was important to assure people that the association was ‘strong and moving forward’.

“It takes time to get things right and legal the first time,” he said.

Mr Deutsch said membership for the association would be $5 a year.

A Wimmera organisation providing people with disabilities with an opportunity to work with and ride horses is desperate for volunteers.

Horsham Riding Develops Abilities or Horsham RDA is looking for people with ‘great talent, endless patience, a sense of hu-

mour and who also enjoy the company of children and animals’.

RDA president Jan Hutton-Croser said interested people could attend workshops at Riverside Recreation Reserve on February 22 and 27.

Laharum poised for big moment T

to Rupanyup-Minyip might keep in the finals hopes alive.

By DEAN LAWSON

he delightful of environs of Cameron Reserve at Laharum is set to provide the stage for a death knock result likely to determine the final makeup of Horsham Cricket Association’s top four.

Laharum appears well on track to producing the outright result it needs over Colts to force its way back into the finals equation.

When play resumes on the northern Grampians oval on Saturday the Mountain Men, who have already secured first-innings points, will press hard for a 10-point result.

If they succeed they will throw a mighty spanner into the plans of other finals aspirants.

Laharum rattled through Colts for 111, the guile of Matt Farr producing a four-wicket haul including a hat-trick and despite Nathan Koenig hitting 60 for Colts.

Laharum then notched up 6-185, Josh Mahoney, Damien Bunworth, Ben Peucker and Dan Griffiths in charge of making runs, before declaring 74 runs in front.

It then put Colts back in and will resume this Saturday having captured 2-16 with a full day of cricket to play.

Fourth-placed Jung Tigers in particular would unlikely to be celebrating Laharum’s

Veterans Paul and Craig Morgan made their presence felt with an 11th-hour half centuries last week and Lee McKenzie also chimed in with runs.

David Puls continued his run with the ball for the Tigers but it’s now up to the batsmen in his team to make their mark on the competition.

While Horsham Saints have some breathing space in second spot, they too face a hefty run-chase against NoradjuhaToolondo team also intent on firming up a place in the top four.

The Saints need 242 to beat the Bullants after Ben Anson, Rowan Scott and David Combe shone with the willow last week despite the efforts of all-rounders Mark Crafter and Luke Brunkhorst.

The Bullants are third on the ladder with the same points as the Tigers and can’t afford to let the noose relax on the Saints’ neck.

OVER THE MOON: Rup-Minyip veteran Paul Morgan helped his side out of trouble in a vital clash with Jung Tigers. The reigning premiers were 4-38 when Morgan joined his brother Craig for a 109-run fifth-wicket partnership. Rup-Minyip closed their 75-over innings at 8-243, giving their opposition a tricky run chase this Saturday. Jung Tigers are fourth, two points clear of Rup-Minyip.

Caviar reigns again to be the William Reid Stakes on March 22nd in what is tipped to be her last run in Victoria.

Yendall doubles up

Last Saturday at Flemington saw the much anticipated return of arguably the greatest racehorse in the world. Black Caviar was attempting to win the race named in her honour The Black Caviar Lightning stakes over 1000 metres. The champ was having her first start since the narrow victory at Royal Ascot in the United Kingdom in June last year.

The mighty mare sustained muscle tears in her back during the Diamond Jubilee Stakes. After a long layoff Black Caviar was presented very well by her trainer Peter Moody and despite what her doubters said she was ready to run a big race.

With her regular rider Luke ‘Trumpy’ Nolan in the saddle, 25,000 adoring fans were on course to watch Black Caviar notch up her 23rd victory from as many outings. Once the nine runners were sent on their way the six-year-old mare was cruising along with absolute ease.

The Lightning field had travelled no less than 300 metres and Black Caviar was in complete control. When the race was on in earnest her Scobie Breasley medalwinning hoop gave her a ‘slap’ down the shoulder and put the race beyond doubt.

The daughter of Blue Diamond-winning stallion Bel Espirit coasted to the line under a strangle hold but still managing to set a new race record in an effortless two and a half-length win. Black Caviar’s stake earnings have now rocketed pat the $7-million mark. Her next start is likely

Horsham jockey Dean Yendall is out to make a serious bid to regain the lead of the National Jockey’s Premiership after booting home a winning double at Ballarat last Saturday.

The Horsham hoop struck early winning the first event aboard Doing Our Best for Ballarat based trainer Darren Weir. Yendall positioned the four-year-old son of US shuttle stallion Tolesto toward the rear of the field then timing his run to perfection, scoring a two length victory in the 1200-metre event.

The second leg of Yendall’s winning double was in race four aboard Heavenly Hop also for the Darren Weir stable. Dean this time positioned the four-year-old son of God’s Own just off the pace behind the leading horses then producing Heavenly Hop in the home straight for a strong win in the maiden handicap over 1600 metres.

Yendall trails Melbourne jockey Brad Rawiller who is on 96 wins for the season while Dean is closing the gap on 90 wins.

In brief Tomorrow’s men’s health awareness race day at Donald is shaping up to be a huge success. The feature event over the sprint trip of 1350 metres sees the nomination of Darren Weir’s smart galloper in Some Target who looks to be one of the fancies for the feature. Greg Baker’s mare Stratric looks to be a good chance in the 0-58 2000-metre handicap after an eyecatching third at Penola a few weeks ago.

Wickets tumble in Grampians tussle Y

outh Club continued with another low score but showed plenty of fight, Buangor scored over 200 but failed to capitalise and Aradale appears set to finish with a rush in Grampians Cricket Association.

With two-day games set to resume this Saturday, Youth Club is defending another score below 100 but has already bounced back to have Swifts-Great Western 2-9.

The Combine will start the chase with openers James Devery and Sam Cocks both having heard the death rattle.

Buangor’s Jim Fraser regained some of his early season form to score 58 and lead Buangor to 214 against Tatyoon at Tatyoon.

Useful scores from Harry Ganley, 39, and Captain Ben Hargreaves, 30, also contributed to the team which has found consistency.

The best of the Hawks bowlers was Tim McDougall with 5-48 off 21 overs, his five-wicket haul bringing his season tally to 2.

Youth Club was all out for 96 in the 40th over with only veteran Phil Hall’s 27 saving the team from disaster.

Tatyoon will resume on 0-58 with Andrew McDougall, 28, and Lachie Laidlaw, 27, to walk to the crease.

Damian Scott was the best of the Combine bowlers with 4-21, his best effort since winning promotion into the A Grade.

Footy Countdown Taylors Lake

Lakers look to build momentum W

By DEAN LAWSON

THE FUTURE: Taylors Lake is pushing strongly to resurrect its under-17 junior team. From left, back, is president Brad Dwyer, Tony Cameron, under-17 coach Jason Kannar and front, juniors Matt McCulloch, Same Cameron, Ash Lawson, Will McCulloch and Jordan Dwyer.

hen Taylors Lake reached Horsham District Football League finals in 2011 there was a combined sense of revelation and relief that seemed to emanate from Dock Lake Reserve.

The Lakers had managed the toughest of assignments to haul themselves from years of fragile mediocrity to become a competitive force. Sure the team might have fallen short of conquering the premiership mountain but there was little doubt the Lakers had overcome some mighty obstacles.

These days the Taylors Lake camp knows what it takes to win and after experiencing the feeling of relative achievement it is unlikely to let a minor hiccup in momentum last season rob fans of future success.

Last year Taylors Lake experienced the disappointment of missing the finals after a whirlwind 2011. But how do you measure disappointment?

The Lakers finished sixth with seven wins, well off the finals pace after a finals appearance the previous year but a far cry from the quick-sand environment of the past.

Lakers president Brad Dwyer said after some pre-Christmas trepidation in the face of some player departures the club was again appearing buoyant

with the expectation of ‘better than average’ results for the approaching season.

“We’re pushing forward with a very hard-working and positive committee,” he said.

“We’ve had to pull the stops out to get another competitive team on the ground the feeling is, considering the support around the place, we’re going to better than average and the spoils will be there for whoever comes with us on the journey.”

Mr Dwyer said high-quality infrastructure combined with the natural amphitheatre of Dock Lake Reserve provided an outstanding football en-

vironment which would provide a backdrop to success.

“We’re going to kick on have a good year and good years to come.

We’ve been very proactive in getting our under-17s up and running and know that if we work hard the results will come. We expect to have competitive and enjoyable season and hope to challenge for the finals.”

New blood The Lakers have given Ian McCulloch the job of leading the on-field assignment with more than handy lieutenants in Aaron Lewis and Jason Weir.

“There’s a bit of a buzz around the joint and we had 27 at training last Tuesday which is probably the most we’ve seen on the track at this time of the year for the last few years,” McCulloch said.

“We’ve had a turnover and have new blood in the team and everything is looking good. Critically, we have a bunch of blokes out there who are already pretty close and that will be the message this year – look after our team-mates. We’re about building relationships and that’s about looking out for each other with body and voice and the bonding is already starting to happen. The key will be to

transfer that to games on Saturdays.”

McCulloch said 2013 would be part of a long-term process spanning several seasons.

“This is not just a one-year plan we’re working on. We’re not looking for quick fixes and already looking at 2014. We want to continually build club through this year.

“We really needed an under-17s and now that it’s full-steam ahead it’s fantastic.”

McCulloch revealed that Taylors Lake was likely to field a physical strong team that would be suited to a physical style of football and a potential injection of youth would provide diversity through the ranks.

New players so far include Sam and Craig Clyne, Leroy Malseed and Marc Davey and the club has strengthened its netball structure with appointment of Michelle Bos as under-17 coach.

Tigers tackling life at the outpost A

By DEAN LAWSON

tyranny of distance has long been the natural enemy of Wimmera Football League’s western outpost club Nhill.

Team leaders have always had to deal with an annual challenge of attracting major-league imports to the west Wimmera centre.

Yet the Tigers are rarely a pushover, in fact many high-profile opposition clubs and players who have made the mistake of taking this defiant group from Davis Park lightly have often hit the deck hard.

A desire to match it with majorleague bench-mark football outfits in the region stokes the fires at the Tigers’ core.

As club president Jim White put it: “It’s important that the club works to be successful, to maintain high standards and not be lured into any form of mediocrity.”

Mr White said the club had long come to grips with its relative isolation in the football world and for more than a decade had worked on a home-grown program that encouraged talent to not only progress through the ranks but to return.

“We have a great connection with our sponsors with a lot of them employing a lot of young kids – we have about seven young apprentices con-

nected to the sporting club,” he said.

“This relationship concept where we look after our own is starting to take off. We’re seeing locals who have gone away come back, often with families, and what we’re really waiting for is for this to all come together.”

Nhill, the major arm of a sporting club that also includes cricket, hockey and soccer, had a disappointing season on the field last year and a disappointing finish. It has placed its faith this season in non-playing coach Darren Weavell.

“The key is to bounce back strongly,” Mr White said.

“We want to be in the mix for the finals, even to make it easier for us the following year so we can really top things off.

“There is a positive feeling at the club and Darren has been excellent.

He has a great rapport with the players and brought a new dimension to the club.”

Strong bodies Weavell added that the Tigers had identified a shortage of strong bodies in the senior list and recruiting had so far had reflected that need.

“We have a fairly young group of players and we’ve concentrated on trying to get bigger bodies in the group. Our list is probably 95 percent settled so we’re starting to look at game style and plans,” he said.

“We have to put together plans that basically help us kick more goals.

But my immediate focus is to get to know the players and understand individual strengths and weaknesses.”

Critically, the Tigers have retained the playing services and knowhow of former coach Simon Brearley and a list of newcomers have raised confidence stocks in the camp.

Ruckman Bill Oakley and fellow personal trainer Josh Milner have joined from Melbourne and former club best and fairest Will Kelly and Matt Jones are also on the list. De-

fender Ricky Leyonhjelm and Nathan Merrett are coming home from Geelong and Jayden Fisher and Mitch Borgelt are making a trip in the opposite direction from Adelaide.

Word from the Tigers is that other returning players include Andrew Watson, Justin Marra and perhaps Aaron Beer. The club has also signed Sam Turmine from Pimpinio.

The incoming list will have to compensate for about half a dozen key departures headed by ruckman Daniel Batson.

Holden hot-shoe hero steps out H

ere’s the car that Holden hopes can achieve what its predecessor could not – a long and successful export run to North America.

BRONZED AUSSIE: Holden’s new VF Commodore SS V has been revealed in a new colour called Fantale, a throwback to burnt-orange Holdens of yore, such as the Torana.

The new VF Commodore SS V will be shipped across the Pacific as the Chevrolet SS Sports Sedan, following in the wheel tracks of the VE Commodore-based Pontiac G8 that came to a sticky end in the global financial crisis in 2009 when a desperate General Motors trashed its Pontiac arm.

Black

Strong start

The SS V – the ‘sports luxury’ flagship of the new range – is the second shoe to drop in Holden’s protracted roll out of the VF range which started with the public unveiling of the ‘luxury sport’ range-topper, the Calais V. The entire range is not due to go on sale until June, hence Holden’s reluctance to let it all hang out while

As well, expect the new model to be more efficient, with the SS V getting the same lightweight aluminium panels – bonnet and boot – and other weight-saving measures, along with aerodynamic gains and powertrain refinements to rein in the thirst from the current 12.2 litres per 100km.

Externally, the new SS V is distinguished by its black-finished front grille, with a smaller opening at the top and large lower opening straddled by a black bumper.

This time, the car has been designed with the American market in mind, with customer surveys in the Land of the Free playing a big part in the redesign, especially of the interior.

With another new-generation Commodore already on the drawing board at Holden for a 2017 release, GM will be hoping for a strong start for its ‘four-door Camaro’.

No powertrain or performance figures have been given, but expect at least as much performance as the 270kW 6.0-litre VE Commodore SS.

it still has four months’ of VE sales to get through.

VF SS V was a class above any performance vehicle created by Holden.

The next VF chapter unfurled on the other side of the world when former Holden chairman and managing director Mark Reuss – now GM North America president – unwrapped the Chevrolet SS ahead of the Daytona 500 in which the Aussie car will carry GM’s hopes in the world’s biggest tin-top racing category.

“When it came to our sport luxury range, we wanted to create an Australian performance car that would be at home just about anywhere in the world,” he said.

Holden chairman and managing director Mike Devereux said the new

“VF Commodore’s pure driving enjoyment and advanced technology are good enough to seriously challenge any large performance sedan on the planet.

“We’ve also packaged VF’s perfor-

mance and technology in a stylish and sophisticated design that will be right at home on any street from George Street, Sydney, to Fifth Avenue, New York City,” he said.

The left-hand-drive Chev SS will be essentially the same as the Australian SS V, built on the same Holden production line in Adelaide and mounted on the Holden developed Zeta reardrive platform that underpinned the previous VE Commodore and related Chevrolet Camaro built in Canada.

The sheet metal is identical to that of other VF Commodores, including the Calais V, but it loses the big chrome grille of the Calais and gains a lot more black, include a rear diffuser, wheels and side ‘vents’.

The black theme is continued inside where the light and breezy tone of the Calais make way for serious black, including the ubiquitous fake carbon fibre, relieved with chrome trim.

Like the Calais, the SS-V gets fake suede trim, along with with perforated leather upholstery.

Australia’s cheapest hybrid Honda has a starting price of $22,990 plus on-road costs for the new petrolelectric version of the Jazz, undercutting the Toyota Prius C by $1000 and taking the title of Australia’s cheapest hybrid.

VW crossed out V

olkswagen has taken its chunky Cross Up from concept to production, with a road-going version to debut at the Geneva motor show.

But the Wolfsburg marque’s more macho mini-car derivative will not appear in Australian showrooms any time soon, with the company’s local arm categorically ruling it out.

entiated externally by its ‘rugged’ black plastic wheelarches and sills, silver roof rails and 16-inch alloy wheels clad in chunky 185/50 tyres.

Inside, the seats get special red or dark-grey trim, different instrument panel finish, leather steering wheel and handbrake, chrome highlights on the vents and speedo, and special lettering.

The production Cross Up emerges looking almost identical to the concept that first appeared at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show.

Pitched somewhere between a small crossover SUV and a light-sized city car, it employs the familiar front-drive Up mechanicals, but is differ-

Volkswagen Group Australia managing director Anke Koeckler told GoAuto last September that the company was not averse to widening its local range beyond the threeand five-door petrol/manualonly line-up currently offered.

The addition will bring Honda’s Australian hybrid line-up to four when the Jazz launches joins the Insight hatch, Civic sedan and CR-Z sports coupe on Monday.

The hybrid version of Honda’s smallest car pairs a 65kW/121Nm 1.3-litre i-VTEC engine with a 10kW/78Nm electric motor for total outputs of 72kW and 167Nm. This Integrated Motor Assist powertrain is the same as that found in the Insight, and features idle-stop, ECON economy mode and an eightyear/unlimited kilometre battery warranty.

Nissan races for medium buyers N

issan’s 300km/h branding campaign for its all-new Altima mid-size car has taken to the track in public for the first time in the form of Nissan Motorsport’s four-car V8 Supercar team headed by the racing Kelly brothers, Todd and Rick.

An official test day for all V8 teams at Sydney’s Eastern Creek not only marked the first serious competitive shakedown for the Altimas – the first Nissan touring cars in Australia’s premier race series since 1992 – but also the start of the company’s bid to win the hearts and minds of mediumcar owners in a market dominated

by Toyota’s locally made Camry and Mazda’s imported Mazda6.

Excitement The Altima is still about nine months away from launch, but Nissan wants to raise awareness of its upcoming model and surround it with a sense of high technology and rubber-burning excitement.

Although race budgets have not been disclosed, Nissan Australia is reputedly spending at least as much as Holden and much more than Ford

Mr Peffer acknowledged that entering a four-car V8 Supercar team was an expensive enterprise, but said Nissan expected to see a return in its investment ‘almost immediately’ once the series got underway at the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide at the end of this month.

The financial input of car companies has been on the wane in recent years, with both Ford and Holden cutting back the number of teams sponsored by the factory.

THE BLACK BEAUTY: Nissan’s Altima V8 Supercar campaign is being masterminded by Kelly Racing’s Rick and Todd Kelly.

This year, factory backing has never been more important as each two-car team’s cut from television rights has been sliced heavily and generous sponsors are few and far between.

in the series, which will also include Mercedes-Benz E-Class entrants – unsupported in any substantial way

by Mercedes-Benz Australia.

The arrival of Nissan on the scene has injected welcome capital into the category and to Kelly Racing, which lost its Holden support.

in the United States where it has been sold for 20 years, it was an unknown badge in Australia.

This year, Holden has ramped up the sponsorship of its two official V8 Supercar teams, Holden Racing Team and Red Bull Triple 8 Racing, as part of efforts to promote its forthcoming VF Commodore.

He said the V8 Supercar involvement gave Nissan an ideal platform to launch its branding campaign for the Altima and other new Nissan products, including the all-new Pathfinder.

Nissan Australia managing director Bill Peffer told GoAuto that, while Altima was Nissan’s top-selling car

“It is a good runway as we introduce a whole suite of products in the next 12 months,” he said.

Two of the Kelly-prepared Altimas, driven by Todd and Rick Kelly, will race under the Jack Daniels Whiskey banner, while two drivers new to Kelly Racing, Michael Caruso and James Moffat, will steer the other two cars under sponsorship from computer security software firm Norton Security.

The cars will be powered by Nis-

san’s own V8 engine based on the 5.6-litre unit from the new Patrol that was launched in Australia this month.

Sleeved back to five litres and with a number of mandatory controls to ensure parity with the Ford, Holden and Mercedes-Benz V8s, the racing version of the multi-valve alloy block engine was developed locally with the help of Nissan’s NISMO experts in Japan.

United States The V8 Supercar series ventures to the US for the first time this year with a round in Austin, Texas, in May. The good news for Nissan Australia is that it will get support from Nissan’s US marketing department at that event, Mr Peffer confirmed.

The V8 Supercar series would appear to be a good platform from which to launch a high-performance version of the Altima, but Mr Peffer said it was too early to say if that would happen.

“We have confirmed a 2.5-litre four-cylinder, and beyond that – too early to talk about,” he said.

Racing Holden reveals more VF Commodore flesh

Another piece of the Holden VF Commodore puzzle clicked into place with the unveiling of Holden Racing Team’s VF V8 Supercar for the 2013 racing season.

After the recent unveiling of the Calais V luxury flagship of the new Holden large sedan in Melbourne, the racing version has exposed the upper grille shape of sports Commodores such as the SS-V, SS and SV6.

In place of the dominant chrome snout of the ‘luxury sport’ Calais is the narrower chrome-rimmed blackmesh grille of the ‘sport luxury’ models.

The lower air opening is somewhat faithful to the production car, with a trapezoidal shape in the bumper mimicking the upper grille, and a black-painted bumper across the middle.

However, the lower part of the large

air inlet is all V8 Supercar, with big brake cooling ducts and an aerodynamic splitter across the bottom.

the United States, but the gearbox – mounted for the first time at the back as a transaxle – is Australian, made

by Ballarat company Albins.

The new Commodore will go on sale in June, with the American export version hitting the market in the second half of the year.

Holden has stepped up its support of the traditional factory team, with its logo dominating the bonnet of the car in place of the energy drink advertising signage of last year.

The HRT V8 Supercar was revealed at Holden headquarters in Melbourne by 2007 V8 Supercar champion Garth Tander and team-mate James Courtney.

The car had only just completed its first test laps at Calder Raceway before being loaded on to the team transporter and taken to Holden for the reveal.

Big Holden decals and the VF Commodore body shape of the car – including the headlights, tail-lights, bonnet and boot – are among the few things genuinely Holden about the race car.

Holden has increased its marketing budget by 40 percent for 2013, with V8 Supercar teams being among the beneficiaries.

THE LOOK: Holden Racing Team’s VF Commodore shows one of the other grilles for the showroom models in the upcoming large-car range.

The VF body sits on the category’s new one-size-fits-all Car of the Future platform that will also be common to Ford, Nissan and MercedesBenz entrants in Australia’s most popular racing series.

Garth Tander told GoAuto that V8 Supercar fans would be delighted to see the Holden lion back on the HRT car’s bonnet.

The new design, developed under the guidance of former HRT champion Mark Skaife, has been introduced to cut costs and improve racing.

“They have recognised that V8 Supercar racing is still Holden heartland, and I reckon the fans will love the new look,” he said.

The HRT racer’s Chevrolet 5.0-litre engine will again be sourced from

The right environment T

he Ford Focus Ambiente is available as both a sedan and hatch for $20,290 plus on-road costs when fitted with a five-speed manual gearbox.

This compares to top-selling rivals such as the Toyota Corolla Ascent, from $19,990, Holden Cruze CD, $21,490, Hyundai i30 Active, $20,990, and Volkswagen Golf 77TSI, $21,990.

Standard equipment includes 16-inch steel wheels with a space-saver spare, Sync voice recognition, a 3.5-inch display with USB and Bluetooth streaming, a trip computer and manual air conditioning.

Cruise control is the most obvious omission, with most rivals now featuring the convenience feature as standard.

The small-car segment that counts the Focus as a key member is a notoriously tough nut to crack, with a vast array of brands and plenty of options at this price point. One in five cars sold in Australia competes in this part of the market.

Interior We found the Ambiente’s cabin a mixed bag, combining excellent ergonomics with an overly fussy overall design.

Slide into the cloth seats – with a short base – and you are faced with an odd assortment of buttons and dials – the Focus dash is the definition of ‘busy’.

Higher-specified version get a simpler fascia with classy gloss-black highlights instead.

The plastics feel inexpensive but are well screwed together and not liable to scratch, and while we welcome the use of soft-touch plastics on the dash-top, we bemoan their absence on the door trim.

The seat has plenty of manual adjustment, and the rake/reach steering wheel makes it easy to find a good driving position. Likewise, the steering-wheel buttons are simple to navigate – although the wheel itself feels cheap.

The lack of cruise control is an important omission – most rivals offer it – but the Ford is the only small-car in this price bracket with such a thorough voice-recognition system – it controls audio, phone and other media – and the quality and clarity of the sound system is excellent.

The cabin has plenty of storage space and hidey holes, including a large console, deep glovebox and handy rear seat cubbies, although the practicality is hindered by the lack of a fold-down rearseat armrest.

Rear seat legroom and headroom is decent, with room for two adults or a third at a pinch, while the deep but narrow boot can hold 316 litres with the rear seats in place.

QUICK TEST: Ford Focus Ambiente

We like

Ride and handling compromise, excellent connectivity with voice control, spacious cabin with lots of storage, sharp price

JL

While the rear pews fold 60:40, they do not sit flat with the floor as they do in the clever Honda Civic hatch, for instance, and the loading area is less even and spacious as a result.

Engine and transmission The Ambiente is the sole member of the Australian Focus range to feature a 1.6-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine. Step up the price sheet and you get either 125kW/202Nm 2.0 petrol or 120kW/340Nm 2.0 diesel engines.

The powertrain produces lower-thanaverage outputs for the class, with 92kW at 6300rpm and 159Nm at 4000rpm on tap. This is mated to either the five-speed manual gearbox tested here or a six-speed Powershift dual-clutch automatic.

The engine is a battler, but lacks the top-end huff of the Volkswagen’s much smaller – but force-inducted – 1.2-litre turbo, while most of its rival’s naturally aspirated engines have larger displacements of 1.8 – 2.0-litres and somewhere above 100kW of power.

At 1339 kilograms, the Focus is no heavyweight, but the small engine still needs to be worked – expect to down-shift on hills, for instance.

To Ford’s credit, the Ambiente remains relatively refined, pointing to good sounddeadening, and the claimed fuel-use figure of 6.2 litres per 100km – 91 RON petrol – is achievable with caution. We averaged 7.5L/100km on our mixed test route, but drove with some gusto.

Room for improvement Underpowered, five-speed gearbox needs an extra ratio, no cruise control, light steering, fussy dashboard

with very little understeer. Indeed, keeping momentum up is the biggest challenge, and we know from our experiences with the hot 184kW Focus ST just what this chassis can handle.

The ride is also excellent, handling minor corrugations and larger obstacles such as speed bumps in a relaxed and smooth manner. There is also very little in the way of tyre roar emanating from the slim 205/60 tyres.

On the downside, Ford’s electric power steering is too light and devoid of feel and feedback, which removes a level of driver involvement from the process.

You may wonder whether the average buyer cares about this, and the answer is ambivalent.

However, we feel that the Focus’ highly competent chassis deserves to be complemented by similarly excellent steering, and right now it isn’t.

Safety and servicing All Focus variants score the maximum five NCAP stars and come standard with six airbags, stability and traction control, brake assist, emergency brake lights, hillstart assist and ISOFIX compatible child seat attachments.

The Focus is covered by a threeyear/100,000km warranty, as well as Ford’s six-year/105,000km capped-price servicing deal, with intervals of either 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first.

The gearbox has a pleasant shift action and a well modulated clutch take-up, and the hill-start assist takes all the drama out of steep hills by stopping roll-back – no hand-brake starts required here.

The maximum cost of each service varies between $320 and $455 – five out of six intervals are the minimum amount, the 60,000km service is the higher.

However, that lack of top-end puff and the lack of a sixth ratio in an era when most rivals have one means the Focus is less relaxed at cruise than most. We were sitting at close to 3000rpm at 100km/h.

Taken as a complete range, the Focus is one of our favourite small-car options on the market. However, there’s little doubt the Ambiente tested here is the weak link.

Ride and handling It’s here where the Focus shines, because even in base trim its compromise between a supple ride and nimble handling is right at the top of the class. Few cars at the price are blessed with such a chassis.

It takes only a roundabout to establish the Ford’s dynamic gifts, with the car displaying a sharp and balanced turn-in

Verdict

Its underpowered engine fails to extract the best out of the excellent chassis, and the absence of cruise control is a massive bugbear.

In our opinion, the extra $2000 asked for the better-equipped and more powerful Trend is money well spent.
