Changes to
petrol price
promotion
BY MATT MALONEY
TASMANIAN petrol retail-
ers will soon be prevented
from displaying discount
petrol prices on boards out-
side outlets.
The move received tripar-
tisan support in Parliament
on Tuesday.
Government minister Guy
Barnett said the objective
behind the motion was to
ease cost of living pressures
and make the state one of the
most affordable places to live
in the country.
“The cost of fuel can be a
significant part of the house-
hold budget … and petrol
pricing can be fickle,” he said.
Braddon Labor MHA
Shane Broad said the Oppo-
sition was pleased that the
government had adopted a
Labor policy from last year.
He accused the govern-
ment of only acting on cost of
living issues in the 12 months
leading up to a scheduled
election – and not going
far enough.
Dr Broad said Labor in

duce laws to force retailers

Franklin Greens MHA Ro-
salie Woodruff said the party
welcomed the government’s
small regulatory amendment
which would make pricing
clearer to motorists.
“What is needed is long-
term planning for the inevi-
table increases to the cost of
petrol,” she said.
According to the
Australian Institute of Pe-
troleum, Tasmania’s average
petrol price was 135.7 cents
per litre last week.
This was 8.9 cents above
the national average.
Launceston motorists
were paying 136 cents per
litre while Sorell motorists
were paying the most at
138.7 cents.
Meanwhile, the Australia
Institute’s Tasmanian
branch has released a report
which urges government
investment in supercharger
stations for electric cars in
the state.

The report presents

Ms Mishull said transport

“The state’s unique power

Four decades in the force

'Country cop' retires
after 43-year career
BY MELISSA MOBBS
LEIGH Bailey may not have
grown up wanting to be a
police officer but that didn’t
stop him from spending 43
years of his life in the force.
Joining in 1976 as a cadet,
Mr Bailey said he had “never
thought about it” before but
it seemed like a good career
choice and a “chance to
help people”.
He graduated from the
academy and went on to
spend more than four dec-
ades on the beat.
He spent the majority of
his career working in the
Northern Midlands as a
“country cop” – a role he said
he was happy to stay in.
“Being in the country, you
did your own CIB work, you
did your own drug squad
work, you are first on scene
for fatal accidents, you are
first on scene for murders –
you really are dealing with a
lot,” he said.
“You lived in the town
too and you knew people
and people knew you. They
would come directly to you
when they wanted a po-
lice officer.
“You also got to know
your crooks, which was a
good thing because they
showed a little bit of respect
in those days.”
Retiring last month, Mr
Bailey said he had seen many
changes throughout his time
– from the types of criminals
police had to deal with to the
culture within the force.
Early on his career, he
said it was all about crack-
ing down on marijuana. But
by the end of it, he and his
fellow officers were dealing
with the devastating impact
of ice.
“The druggies then, in the
‘70s, were the hippies … they
could have their joints and
be happy as Larry. Crooks
got hold of [cannabis] in the
early ‘80s and realised they
could start making money
out of it ...that was about the
extent of the drugs,” he said.
“But then ice has come in-
to it and I feel sorry for police
officers and the public now

Council decides not to fly rainbow flag

A MOTION for a Northern
council to show its sup-
port for marriage equality
has failed.
The Meander Valley Coun-
cil will not fly a rainbow flag
outside its council chambers
after Councillor Andrew
Connor soley voted for the
motion.
Many councillors believed
the issue was not a local gov-
ernment one. Cr Connor said
that excuse was a “cop out”.
Mayor Craig Perkins
agreed it wasn’t a govern-
ment issue.
“Politicians have handled
this situation poorly … it has
turned into a political game,”
he said.
“I feel very sad in the way
that this has played out na-
tionally and I don’t think we
should by in to it.”
Councillor Bob Richard-
son said he seconded Cr
Connor’s motion to “allow
for debate”.
Cr Connor acknowledged
the same-sex marriage de-
bate was not a council issue,
but was a human rights one
that had to begin some-
where.
“For those councillors
that say we should stick to
roads, rates and rubbish –
we already do a lot more
than that.”
Councillor Deb White
agreed it was not a council
issue. “We do not know in
any way, shape or form what
our community thinks about
this,” she said.
Councillor Rodney Syn-
field agreed with Cr White.
He said it was appropriate to
let Australians have their say
without the council trying to
force it upon them.
Councillor Michael Kelly
did not support the motion
because he said it left the
council open to other issues.
“Next there will be a
Collingwood [football club]
flag, and then before we
know it there will be a street
full of flags,” he said.
Hobart City Council and
other councils around the
nation have voted to fly the
flag.

nity have spoken with their
feet and turned up, support-
ed it and enjoyed it”.
“Junction just highlights
the sense of community we
already have.”
It was Henty’s last festival
as he will take over the exec-
utive officer role full time at
CityProm this month.
It was immensely satis-
fying to walk around on the
last day of the festival, all
the shows had sold out and
heaps of people were out
enjoying the music, he said.
He couldn’t pinpoint
a show highlight after his
six years.
Instead Henty said his
thoughts returned to the
team of people bringing
energy and expertise to
the festival.
“That’s the feeling I get to
walk away with and say ‘what
an amazing group of people,
what an amazing amount
of passion’.”
While he may be moving
out of the general manag-
er role, it would not be his
last Junction.
“I am absolutely looking
forward to coming to Junc-
tion as a punter,” Henty said.
He didn’t want to suggest
directions the festival could
go in, saying “if it’s similar or
something completely differ-
ent, I’ll be over the moon”.
Evolving was part of the
festival and someone else
could take it in whatever
direction they felt Junction
should go in, he said.
As for who would take on
the role of general manager,
it would the board’s deci-
sion,” Henty said. “The senior
managers are putting their
heads together and thinking
about what the next chapter
of Junction is.”
As for Henty’s advice to
the new general manager:
“My advice is to put all your
energy into it. This is not a
job, this is almost a way of
life, don’t be afraid to put all
your emotion into it. It’s that
heart, drive and energy that
keeps you going and it gets
returned to you in spades.”

Primary Health Tasmania

which was expected to at-
tract 24 people.
He said 60 workers would
be provided with cultural
safety training and 15 people
would undertake training to
run group therapy sessions.
Mr Broxton said enrol-
ment priority would be given
to Aboriginal people working
in the alcohol and drug sec-
tor and people providing ser-

Funding for the training

Museum ‘not given away’

BY HAYDEN JOHNSON AND
HOLLY MONERY
AS FINANCIAL details of
the National Automobile
Museum of Tasmania’s relo-
cation are decided, the City
of Launceston is insisting it
is not ‘giving away’ the land.
The museum will relocate
from its location on the cor-
ner of Willis and Cimitiere
streets to make way for the
University of Tasmania’s
$260-million campus relo-
cation.
Museum board member
Harry Williscroft and his col-
leagues jumped at the offer
of a parcel of land near the
Silo Hotel at North Bank.
UTAS’ Northern Expan-
sion project director James
McKee said the university
had been working with the
museum for about two years.
He said the financial de-
tails of the move were now
being discussed between the
university, City of Launces-
ton and the museum.
“It's been a process of try-
ing to find the right outcome
and it has been a true, three-
way conversation,” he said.
“When you've got three
parties involved, all with dif-

ferent needs and aspirations
that takes a bit of time.”
City of Launceston acting
general manager Michael
Tidey expected the council to
formally consider the matter
in the coming weeks.
“The discussions do not
involve the council giving
away the land in question,”
he said.
“The representatives of the
NAMT are clearly very excit-
ed by the proposal, which
would allow them to further
build upon their important
tourism offering in a dedi-
cated, purpose-built facility,
and allow the university to
potentially expand the foot-
print of its proposed new
northern campus.”
Six options were tabled as
potential future locations for
the museum.
“We looked everywhere,
right out to even Meander
Valley about what other op-
tions might exist,” he said.
Mr Williscroft said the
relocation of the museum
would allow it to expand and
provide disability access.
“To be able to open up the
entire display to everyone in
our community is something
we are particularly pleased
about – we looked at a range
of possibilities but the site at
North Bank is by far the right
option for us for a number of
reasons,” he said.
Relocation is expected
to begin within months to
ensure the museum is oper-
ational by late 2018.
Mr Williscroft said it was
almost certain that the mu-
seum would lose money in
the two years after the move.
He said the university
had also agreed to help with
moving costs.
Mr McKee said until UTAS
had finalised the masterplan,
it could not be clear on what
its needs for the site were.
“The real key was to get the
right outcome for all parties
– importantly that we didn't
lose the value of the museum
to the community and to the
tourism sector,” he said.
Mr McKee hoped the plan
would be finalised soon.

REVIEW: Strathdevon aged
care home at Latrobe.
Nursing
homes
report 21
deaths
THERE have been 21 deaths
reported during 12 influen-
za outbreaks at Tasmanian
nursing homes, the state’s
public health director Dr
Mark Veitch has said.
Dr Veitch said the nursing
home residents did not nec-
essarily die of influenza but
it was likely for many of them
influenza would have con-
tributed to the deaths. Dr
Veitch said 34 nursing homes
had reported flu outbreaks
this year, of which 17 were
affected at the moment.
It comes after a three-day
review began on Monday
into six deaths after a flu
outbreak at the Strathdevon
aged-care facility at Latrobe.
Strathdevon was no longer
in lockdown after the fatal
flu outbreak.
Dr Veitch said as of Sep-
tember 11, Public Health
Services had received noti-
fications of 2265 laboratory
confirmed cases of influen-
za. He said flu cases peaked
in late August, and appear to
be declining.
Dr Veitch said while a high
coverage of flu vaccination
among aged care residents
and staff was helpful, it
was only one part of reduc-
ing outbreaks.
Federal crackdown on child sex offences
THE Sexual Assault Support
Service has welcomed pro-
posed new federal reforms
targeting child sex offenders.
On Tuesday, federal
Justice Minister Michael
Keenan announced the gov-
ernment would propose the
new laws, which he labeled
the “greatest crackdown on
paedophiles in a generation”.
The proposed laws, which
are set to be introduced into
federal Parliament this week,
include child sex offenders
spending longer in jail, being
less likely to be granted bail,
and facing mandatory mini-
mum sentences.

‘essence’ of Pollock

Williams called Study After Namuth. Picture: Paul Scambler.
SASS chief executive Jill
Maxwell said she supported
changes within the justice
system for child victims.
“Whilst we supported
mandatory sentencing earli-
er this year when proposed
by our state government,
this was debated within the
Legislative Council unsuc-
cessfully and we accept that
decision,” Ms Maxwell said.
The service also recom-
mended a new offence be
created for aggravated sexual
intercourse with a young
person and maintaining a
sexual relationship with a
young person in circum-
stances of aggravation.
Tasmanian Labor Senator
Helen Polley said the party
would examine the proposed
laws closely.
“Labor believes that vile
criminals convicted of child
sexual abuse should face the
full force of the law,” she said.
The news came days after
the Lyons Liberal MHA Mark
Shelton released a petition to
“get proper jail sentences for
paedophiles” following the
voting down of the govern-
ment’s bill for mandatory jail
time for serious child sexual
offences in June this year.

ORIGINALITY and research
has secured a win for Ruth
William’s work Study After
Namuth in the Pollock at the
Princess competition.
Artists were invited by
Theatre North and Hotel
Grand Chancellor Launces-
ton to create a Jackson Pol-
lock-inspired artwork.
The competition celebrat-
ed the 65th birthday of the
American artist’s most fa-
mous work Blue Poles (Num-
ber 11, 1952), which was
acquired by The National
Gallery of Australia in 1973.
The announcement was
made at the official exhi-
bition opening by Gallery
Pejean director Margot Baird
on Tuesday evening, coin-
ciding with the evening’s
performance of Bakersfield
Mist, which centered around
a potential Pollock discovery.
Williams said her work
was inspired by the first
photograph sessions Hans
Namuth took of Pollock in
his studio with his wife.
She tried to capture “the
physicality, both in his ac-
tive dance-like movement
around the canvas laid out
on the floor, their clothes
and Lee Krasner’s pose [his
wife] on the bar stool where
she seems to be absorbed
in not obstructing his crea-
tive activity”.
Tasmanian artist and cu-
rator Patrick Sutczak faced
tough decisions as he se-
lected 10 finalists from the
28 entries.
“There were some great
artworks in the mix,” Sutczak
said.
“I wish I’d been able to
choose a top 15.”
When it came down to
picking the winner, Sutczak
said Williams had evident-

Water takeover step closer

BY MICHELLE WISBEY
THE government is one step
closer to bringing into reality
its controversial TasWater
takeover as the proposed
reform passed through the
lower house on Tuesday.
Questions of amalgama-
tions, employee support,
and legality were all brought
up in the debate which ulti-
mately led to the passing of
the legislation.
The bill will now head to
the Legislative Council to be
debated at a later date.
In the Parliamentary de-
bate, Greens water spokes-
person Andrea Dawkins
questioned whether the leg-
islation was “amalgamation
by stealth”.
But Treasurer and Local
Government Minister Peter
Gutwein said this was incor-
rect.
Ms Dawkins questioned
what assurances the govern-
ment could give the Tasma-
nian public that the takeover
would not further delay the
upgrading of the state’s water
and sewerage infrastructure.
“It would be our intention
that it would be a seamless
transfer … there would be no
interruption at all,” Mr Gut-
wein told Parliament.
Opposition local govern-
ment spokesperson Made-
leine Ogilvie said she had
heard from TasWater work-
ers that they felt they had not
been given a “fair go”.
She questioned what
change the legislation would
have on the TasWater work-
force and whether there
would be programs to en-
sure staff were appropriately
cared for throughout any
transitions.
Mr Gutwein confirmed
that no employee would
lose their job as a result of
the transfer.
“This is an opportunity to
get the job done, this is an
opportunity for Tasmanians
to pay less,” he said.
Ms Ogilvie questioned
whether one clause written
in the bill was there to spe-
cifically stop legal action
being taken against the gov-
ernment over the proposed
takeover.
Mr Gutwein said he was
“very comfortable” that the
bill was lawful and would
withstand any challenges.
A Legislative Council in-
quiry into the ownership of
TasWater will hold further
public hearings in Launces-
ton on Wednesday and
Thursday this week.

Trivia night for youth support

PUT on your thinking caps
and prepare for a night of
trivia supporting young mi-
grant women.
The Migrant Resource
Centre has joined with pro-
fessional and career women
organisation Zonta to host a
night of trivial fun on Friday
at the Launceston Golf Club.
All proceeds from the
night go directly to the Mi-
grant Resource Centre’s
Youth Pathways program,
helping young women and
girls develop their lives with
the support of the centre and
the community.
TRIVIA TIME: Zonta president Sue Dyson and the Migrant Centre's Ella Dixon do some Zonta Club of Launceston
research before the trivia fundraising night. Picture: Paul Scambler president Sue Dyson said the
the organisation was “very
inclusive” and supported
women through their chosen
career or professional path-
ways, which made it an ideal
fit for supporting with MRC
with the work done helping
migrants establish their
own lives.
MRC chief executive Ella
Dixon said the centre fre-
quently doorknocked local
clubs and organisations to
find support for the Youth
Pathways program.
She said funding from the
Tas Community Fund sup-
ports the employment of a
pathways officer to work with
youth settling in Launceston,
but any activities the pro-
gram participants want to
take on require additional,
community-based funding.
On Friday night Zonta
welcomes anyone seeking
an enjoyable night out for a
good cause to the Launces-
ton Golf Club, with silent
auctions, raffle prizes and
trivia all hosted by Alderman
Danny Gibson.
Limited tickets are still
available at $20 a person,
which includes a light sup-

door sales will be available.

ENERGY giant AGL won’t

buyer for the ageing Liddell
coal-fired power station,

AGL is considering

Police admit to frustration in Tyrrell case

THE lead investigator in the
search for William Tyrrell
admits he’s frustrated the
case remains unsolved and
has urged the public to re-
main vigilant for suspicious
behaviour from friends or
relatives.
As the missing Sydney
boy’s family and foster fam-
ily on Tuesday marked the
third anniversary of his
disappearance, Detective
Chief Inspector Gary Jube-
lin said despite the elimi-
nation of hundreds of sus-
pects, detectives were still
committed to the case.
“We’re not giving up on
this investigation,” he told
reporters in Sydney.
“It doesn’t sit well with
me personally that three
years down the track we
haven’t solved (it).”
The seasoned detective
pleaded with potential wit-
nesses not to bog police
down with theories from
clairvoyants or mediums
but instead share “genu-
ine information”, including
about the behaviour of a
friend or relative. “The way
they react when William’s
name is mentioned might
cause suspicion,” he said.

An unprecedented $1

ing to William’s return.

said it was a once-in-a-gen-

vestigation “weighed heav-
ily” on all those involved.

gle person abducted Wil-

Joyce: Ask
me about
water theft
WITH accusations of water
theft in the Murray-Darling
Basin still swirling, Barnaby
Joyce has dared the opposi-
tion to ask him about it in
parliament.
Both Labor and the
Greens have stepped up
their call for a judicial in-
quiry into allegations of
mismanagement and wa-
ter theft first unveiled by a
Four Corners investigation
in August.
But Labor has been re-
fusing to ask Mr Joyce ques-
tions in parliament until
the High Court resolves his
status after he was found to
be a dual citizen.
Mr Joyce, the minister
responsible for water re-
sources, dismissed Labor’s
motives.
“It’s all theatrics … there’s
no seriousness about it.
I’ll get no question. They’ll
prefer to do some kind of
gimmick for the camera
rather than ask the hard
questions,” he said.
“If they’re serious about
it, they’ll ask me a question

Costello warns on

pokie-machine rigging.

legal action against Crown

SETTLEMENT
OVER SELFIE
A US lawsuit over who
owns the copyright to selfie
photographs snapped by a
monkey has been settled
before a federal court could
answer the legal question.
Under the deal, the
photographer whose
camera was used to
take the photo agreed to
donate 25 per cent of any
future revenue to charities
dedicated to protecting
crested macaques.
The People for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals sued
on behalf of the macaque

INSIGHT
Swooping
magpie a
reminder of
natural world
I
T'S magpie swooping season – the time
of year when male birds seek to protect
eggs and chicks from potential preda-
tors. At this time of year, my morning
commute sometimes feels a bit like extreme
sport as I've been forced to take refuge be-
side lamp posts and under canopies to avoid
getting clawed. The fear of being attacked
by magpies is not new. For me, it might hark
back to the horror of seeing Alfred Hitch-
cock's The Birds as a child. As a teenager, I
recall swinging a bike chain above my head
as I rode past parklands where a tidings of
magpies gathered.
But maybe I was going about it all wrong.
Several experts, including Gisela Kaplan,
an emeritus professor in animal behaviour
at the University of New England, suggest
we are better off to try to make friends with
our potential attackers than to try to fight
them. Kaplan told ABC radio last week that
magpies have long memories and once they
know you don't pose a threat, they will make
you a friend for life. But if you are nasty to
them they will hold a permanent grudge
against you. While Kaplan didn't go into spe-
cifics of how to make friends with magpies
(feeding them is discouraged) during
breeding season, the best way is to show
them some respect by leaving them alone
and avoiding going too close to their nests.
If nothing else, magpie swooping season
reminds us we we share our cities with a
multitude of wildlife. And while none of us
would ever wish to be swooped by magpies,
they can provide an enlightening connec-
tion to the natural world that is increasingly
elusive. And if we lose this connection to
nature, we may cease to be prepared to
stand up to protect it in the long run.
Perhaps instead of trying to go into battle
with the magpies this swooping season, by
finding a harmonious relationship with our
urban wildlife we will be better equipped to
tackle the bigger environmental problems
facing us.

POPE’S VIEW
SARAH HIRST
Let’s get back to being
a fun Aussie larrikin
A
USTRALIA does tourism well but
Australia could do tourism so
much better.
When you arrive at the Nadi
Airport in Fiji, you are greeted by smiling
locals in grass skirts playing traditional tunes
on a brightly-colored ukulele. The cheery
chant of “bula” (meaning hello) reverberates
from every corner of the airport and from
every Fijian you encounter on your stay.
You ride in a ‘bula bus’, the locals hug your
children and during your hotel check-in,
no fewer than six Fijians in traditional dress
greet you, serenade you with song, collect
your luggage, hand you bottles of chilled
Fijian water and introduce your children to
their own special hotel hero.
Let’s compare this experience to a recent
arrival at the Melbourne International
Airport. The first greeting is from a stern uni-
form-clad official that threatens to fine you
for talking on your phone. You then proceed
to a customs queue that for non-Australian
passport holders extends far up the termi-
nal. Visitors, who have chosen Australia
over endless other international destinations
to holiday or do business, are kept waiting
for up to an hour while a grumpy “guard”

friendly’ struts past.
Globally, Australia is recognised for being
a nation of larrikins that are laid-back,
beach-going and friendly fellas. Our coast-
line, rainforests, deserts, farm land, cities
and natural attractions are the envy of the
world. So why have we forgotten our basic
manners in how to meet, greet and show
appreciation to our visitors?
Let’s look at the signs posted on the
walls of our airports, train stations and bus
terminals. Are they lists of rules, regulations
and threatening fines? Or are they cheeky
Australianisms that convey serious messag-
es in a more colloquial style?
Why can’t we all adopt the Fijian ap-
proach and have all Australians saying
“G’day mate” when they greet every visitor?
Why can’t we have a proud Indigenous
Australian playing the didgeridoo in our
international terminals to greet travellers?
Why can’t we rely on the infamous Aussie
sense of humor to bring back the fun for all?
Tourism consultants are being paid
hundreds of thousands of dollars to conjure
crafty campaigns costing millions of dollars
to promote Australia to the world. This “Be
Australian” campaign costs $0. It’s all about

– friendly, helpful, interactive, fun and
sharing endless “G’day mates”.
More than 45,000 people volunteered at
the 2000 Sydney Olympics to authenticate
the event with local characters and true
Aussie warmth. Imagine if all 24.64 million
Australians joined the “G’day mate” band-
wagon to love and laugh with tourists, but
also locals.
During a recent outback journey across
the Oodnadatta Track in South Australia,
a creative Aussie had added a word to all
the “DIP” road signs – placed to indicate an
upcoming drop in the dusty track. There’s
“Cheese and Dip”; “Diploma”; “Dipstick”
and “Skinny Dip” to name a few. We laughed
and laughed as a family, eagerly awaiting
the next road sign to appreciate the Aussie
humour. When did we start taking ourselves
too seriously? Why do we worry more about
litigious action than lauded laughter? Let’s
all focus on getting back to basics, engaging
all Australians and ensuring we create an
authentic experience purely by sharing our
culture and quirkiness with all who choose
to visit our lucky country.

EDITORIAL
Brave act deserves recognition bestowed
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
WEST COAST TRACKS
I WOULD like to commend the state Lib-
eral Party on its re-commitment to opening
the section of four-wheel-drive tracks south
of Sandy Cape in the Arthur-Pieman conser-
vation area that were closed by the previous
Labor-Greens government.
I implore the Labor party to echo the
Liberal’s position on this issue. Locking
up parts of our state is never the answer.
Sure, there will always be people who do
the wrong thing but if we applied the same
tar-everyone-with-the-same-brush decision
that’s been made regarding this issue to
other potentially problematic things, no one
would be allowed to have a beer, drive a car,
or go out after dark. Trying to stop idiots by
punishing everyone else is simply wrong.
As someone who loves visiting the remote
places on the West Coast – one of the last
truly wild places in Tassie - I say let us see
more of our great state.
Cody Handley, Hadspen.
RENEWABLE ENERGY
WE HAVE truly thrown the baby out with
the bathwater in the renewable energy
debate. Completely forgotten is the urging
in the Paris agreement to focus on reducing
emissions rather than setting goals for
renewable energy.
Also forgotten are gas-fired heating and
cooking have emissions about equal to
those from electricity generation. Wind and
solar contribute about 1.6 per cent to the
world's electricity production and less than
10 per cent of the total from all renewables
with biomass, geothermal and hydroelec-
tric the main contributors; and the gross
unfairness in using emissions per capita as
the yardstick, which makes no allowance
for a country such as Australia, with its
small population occupying a very large
country, that consequently lead to very high
network costs as well as many others such as
transport.
What is truly remarkable is nearly
everyone has become an expert on this issue

A
MERICAN news reporter Elmer
Davis once said: “This nation will
remain the land of the free only
so long as it is the home of the
brave.”
Bravery is defined as the quality or state of
having or showing mental or moral strength
to face danger, fear, or difficulty. It’s often a
word that is overused and rarely truly acted
upon. The term is often associated with
those serving in the military.
Today some Australians will be acknowl-
edged for acts of bravery. One of the awards
is the Star of Courage. This is the second
highest Australian Bravery Decoration. The
Cross of Valour is the highest honour.
It is fitting for this honour to be given
posthumously to Benjamin Aherne. The

went to the assistance of a woman who had

The citation reads:
“Mr Aherne received a phone call from
a friend asking him to visit her house after
her ex-partner had assaulted her and she
believed that he would return. Mr Aherne
drove to the woman's house, and his partner
arrived in her own car and remained
outside.
“Shortly after Mr Aherne's arrival at the
house, the woman's ex-partner returned
and entered the premises carrying a rifle.
The offender continued to make violent
threats and, despite the danger to himself,
Mr Aherne confronted the offender in the
hallway of the house and attempted to
diffuse the situation. After a short struggle,
both men exited the house.

TASMANIAN TIGER
IT CAME as no surprise to me that rea-
sonably credible evidence of the existence of
the Tasmanian Tiger has come to light. Three
years ago the Queensland night parrot, that
had not been seen for 75 years, was found
to be alive and well. More recently, the
Western swamp tortoise that had not been
seen for more than 100 years was found and
is now on a breeding program in Adelaide
Zoo. Tasmania is a linear frontier settlement
with vast unknown areas, we could not even
track down a fox even though there was
evidence of its presence. Thylacines live on
other marsupials, small rodents and birds,
so could live and survive independently of
civilisation. I am a true believer.

windows, warning her to immediately leave
the scene. The armed offender approached
and fired two shots at the vehicle, seriously
wounding Mr Aherne's partner.
“As Mr Aherne ran towards his own car,
the offender fired his weapon at Mr Aherne,
causing him to fall to the ground. The of-
fender approached Mr Aherne and opened
fire once again, fatally wounding him.
“By his actions, Mr Aherne displayed
conspicuous courage.”
Mr Aherne’s family said “the circum-
stances and events that unfolded that day
were not of [Ben’s] making”. He saved lives
through the loss of his own. The actions
of Mr Aherne are a true demonstration of
bravery and the selflessness displayed is a
trait others should aspire to demonstrate on
a daily basis.
YOUR SAY
RAIL CAR WELCOME
THANKYOU for the excellent coverage
(The Examiner, September 7).Your reporter
was able to see the strong support by
passing motorists and truck drivers. Dorset
Council has not received $1.47 million from
the federal government. Launceston North-
East Railway member Wendy McLennan,
on her recent visit to Canberra, met with
officers of Federal Infrastructure Minister
Darren Chester’s department and was
advised funds had not been paid as they
were awaiting the outcome of the study
undertaken by the state government.The
purpose of the fund is to generate em-
ployment in rural areas, since Premier Will
Hodgman stated on television that the gov-
ernment was open to diversification and
the subsequent $50,000 study undertaken
at the behest ofTreasurer Peter Gutwein
Brian P. Khan, Launceston North-East Railway
group member, Bridport.
FRONTLINE WORKERS
I DOUBT applicants for frontline positions
will be deterred by the action as you
claim - the occasionally dangerous nature
of the job and the high staff turnover/
burnout rate is already well known. Rather,
I imagine a positive response to the action
will reassure applicants that workloads are
manageable, and encourage them to take
on this vital work at the forefront of some
of our most complex social problems.
I was very encouraged by your recent
announcement of extra funding for child
safety, so I was surprised to hear about
the planned action. I attended the rally
as a member of the public and chatted
with some frontline workers afterwards. I
was touched to hear the concern in their
voices as they spoke of agonising over the
decision to withdraw their services even
for such a short time. I was impressed by
the sincerity of the workers as they spoke
about their fears for children and families
who are not getting the attention they need
as quickly as they need it.
Clearly, the additional funding you an-
nounced in May is appreciated, but more
needs to be done, especially in the creation
of additional frontline positions. I urge you
to listen to those who are doing the job on
behalf of all of us and give them what they
need. Give our children a safer start.
Karen Annand, Kingston.

THE federal government
is cracking down on dodgy
executives who strip down
their businesses and trans-
fer assets to another com-
pany to avoid paying out-
standing liabilities.
So-called phoenixing ac-
tivity costs the economy up
to $3.2 billion per year and
hurts employees, creditors,
competing businesses and
taxpayers, Revenue and Fi-
nancial Services Minister
Kelly O’Dwyer said.
The government was
committed to ensuring in-
dividuals who engage in
such activity were held to
account, she said.
Regulators would be
equipped to take stronger
action to both deter and
penalise.
Labor can’t understand
why it has taken the gov-
ernment so long to act
when the tax commissioner
warned about such activity
in May.
“It seems the Turnbull
government has only grown
interested now that they
need a distraction from its
crisis of the day,” shadow
assistant treasurer Andrew
Leigh said.
The Australian Chamber
of Commerce and Indus-
try says business stands to
benefit from the govern-
ment’s action.

HOROSCOPES with Alison Moroney

AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
September 13-15 are likely
to be disappointing days
when obstacles present
themselves, restricting
your route to success or
dulling your enjoyment of
a social occasion.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-Mar. 20)
Whilst you are certainly
well-positioned to achieve
your career goals, setbacks
may emerge occur during
September 13-15; this
could take the form of
a disagreement with an
influential person.
ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
It’s difficult to make
progress during
September 13-15.
Your mind is dulled by
weariness and conformity,
when you really need to
approach a situation from
a fresh perspective.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
September 13-15 highlight
financial commitments,
demanding careful
management of a
situation. As budgets
are tight, a late payment
may complicate matters
for you.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
Your partner seems to
be a little remote during
September 13-15, making
communication difficult.
A trip away may be the
cause, or they simply
have a lot on their plate
at the moment.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
Your energy levels are
particularly low during
September 13-15, making
it difficult to get through
your usual tasks; attend
to personal needs and
maintain a steady pace.

LEO VIRGO LIBRA SCORPIO SAGITTARIUS CAPRICORN

(July 23-Aug. 22)
September 13-15 are not
the brightest of days as
issues arise with work
or a loved one. It seems
impossible to manage two
situations simultaneously
and you’ll need to
prioritise.
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
The home can be a lonely
place during September
13-15, even though it is
not normally so.You may
simply have problems
coping because of
weariness or distractions.
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
September 13-15 are
frustrating days as
obstacles seem to deter
you no matter which
way you turn.You need
patience to work your way
around your environment
at this time.
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Double check your pay
packet during September
13-15 as you may be a
little short.This can be
frustrating as money
is tight at the moment,
and may take a short
time to resolve.
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
A cloudy mood seems
to dampen September
13-15 for Sagittarian
natives. Weariness doesn’t
help; nor do too many
responsibilities. Work your
way around obstacles.
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Your health may not be
the best during September
13-15 so take time to
nurture yourself and avoid
unhealthy environments;
don’t push yourself
beyond your limits of
endurance.

Rowers on top of the world

JUNIOR SPORT PROFILE
BY HAMISH GEALE

A GOLDEN generation of North Esk Row-

ing Club youngsters is working wonders for
Launceston College’s rowing program.
Under-19 rowers Connor Ryan, Jack Bar-
rett, Danny Barratt, Matthew Dikkenberg,
Phillip Dikkenberg, Lars Gillingham, Ethan
McCullagh, Brad Riley, Braidyn Dawe-
Wright, Samuel Williams, Owen Elmer
have enjoyed a dominant year in the water,
sweeping competition aside in both state
and school championships.
The eleven-strong team also performed
admirably in Sydney’s national champion-
ships, combining for gold in the 500m coxed
quad and bronze in the single, quad and four.
Team manager Peter Ryan said the group
had achieved a special feat by winning the
double, quad, four and eight at the school
championships.
“From a Launceston College point of view
it’s really the first time for a long time that a
public school has been able to take it up to
the independent schools,” Ryan said.
“We’ve been lucky enough that we’ve
had all the boys coming through North
Esk through the different high schools like
Riverside and so forth end up at Launces-
ton College.
“The last time something was won by
Launceston College I think it was in the ‘60s,
and one of the last championships we could
see they actually won was in 1918 or some-
thing like that, so there’s a fair bit of histo-
ry there.”
Ryan said while he hoped to see more
young talent taking up the sport in the future,
there was no doubt North Esk was experienc-
ing a rare swell of rowing talent.
“It’s like once in a generation that you’d
have that amount of rowers coming through
who have all peaked at one time - you don’t
get it very often.
“You might get some years where you’ve
got four or five good boys coming through
but then you’ve got some lesser (years) where
you haven’t been able to get the success.”

Stone remains on Cup path

RACING
BY GREG MANSFIELD
LONGFORD trainer Troy
Blacker is hoping Settler’s
Stone gets a run at Fleming-
ton on Saturday so the horse
can continue his push for a
start in the Melbourne Cup.
Settler’s Stone is only
32nd in order of entry for a
1700-metre race but Blacker
is optimistic the gelding can
squeeze into the 16-horse
final field.
“There are quite a few
horses entered for the race
that are double nominated
so we’re hoping for the best,”
the trainer said.
Settler’s Stone was having
his second run after a spell
when 10th to Stampede at
Moonee Valley last Saturday.
He was to have raced a
week earlier but was ballot-
ed out.
“He was three weeks be-
tween runs going into Sat-
urday’s race which wasn’t in
the plan but he wasn’t beat-
en that far,” Blacker said.
“His sectional times were
good and he pulled up well.”
After this week’s race,
Blacker hopes to run Set-
tler’s Stone in the JRA Cup at
MAKING PROGRESS: Tasmanian stayer Settler's Stone, pictured winning at Mowbray in February, will continue his
spring campaign at Flemington on Saturday if he gets a start. Picture: Greg Mansfield
Moonee Valley on Septem-
ber 29. He won the same race
in 2011 with Dream Pedlar.
“His main aim is the Bart
Cummings at Flemington
which carries automatic
entry to the Melbourne Cup
but that’s still a couple of
runs away,” Blacker said.
Settler’s Stone earned a
spring campaign with three
top runs at the end of his
last preparation – a fourth
in the Launceston Cup, third
in the Roy Higgins Quality at
Flemington and third in the
Mornington Cup. tions for animal cruelty.

result of his criminal convic- The court heard that the
RSPCA had found 15 horses
and a pony “starving” on a
Birralee property in 2016.
Four of the horses had to
be destroyed.
Toulmin was sentenced to
two months in prison wholly
suspended for 12 months,
fined $5000 and ordered to
pay $5900 compensation to
the RSPCA.
As a result of the con-
victions, harness stewards
opened their own inquiry
which heard submissions
from Toulmin before hand-
ing down three separate
disqualifications totaling
seven years.
Stewards said that when
determining penalty they
were “mindful of the seri-
ousness of the charges which
had a significant adverse
impact upon the reputation
of harness racing.”
They were also mindful
that any penalty “act as a
significant deterrent for
breaches of animal welfare
standards.”
Orders were also made to
Toulmin and the registered
owners of horses still in his
care that those horses must
be removed within sev-
en days.

Buddy fit, Swans mull
change for semi-final
SWANS
SYDNEY achieved near
perfection in their elimi-
nation final but coach
John Longmire may yet
change his side for Friday
night’s knockout bout with
Geelong.
The Swans cruised to a
65-point win over Essen-
don at the SCG on Saturday
after booting 10 consecu-
tive goals in the first half.
Lance Franklin, who was
put on ice at three-quarter
time because of a corked
thigh, is set to train on
Wednesday and considered
in no doubt for the MCG
clash.
Out-of-favour big man
Kurt Tippett is expected to
be overlooked again but
Lewis Melican, if passed
fit, may convince Longmire
to tinker with a winning
formula.
Melican, the latest in a
long line of rookie-list suc-
cess stories at Sydney, was
a last-minute scratching
from the elimination final
because of a tight quad.
He has played 17 games
this year, earning a Rising
Star nomination for curb-
ing the influence of St Kilda
icon Nick Riewoldt.
Key defenders Dane
Rampe and Heath Grundy
will be tasked with stop-
ping Tom Hawkins and
Harry Taylor, but Longmire
was wary of Geelong’s other
potent forwards.
“He’s an important play-
er for us. He’s able to play
on talls and smalls,” Long-
mire said of Melican.
“He’s certainly a chance.
“He gives us a lot of flexi-
bility. He’s proven a number
of weeks that he’s an impor-
tant player in our back six.”
Longmire suggested last
Saturday that Franklin, who
spent quarter-time on an ex-
ercise bike, could have easily
played the last term against
Essendon if required.
The superstar’s recovery
has since gone exactly to
plan.
“He’ll train, and play on
Friday night,” Swans foot-
ball manager Tom Harley
said of Franklin. “Lance has
recovered really well … he’s
an absolute pro in what he
does post-game.”
Tippett, who played in
the NEAFL grand final last
Saturday, has overcome the
ankle injury that contrib-
uted to his axing last week.
But the ruck-forward ap-
pears no closer to a call-up.
“He was OK without set-
ting the world on fire,” Long-
mire said of Tippett’s perfor-
mance in the seconds.
Longmire noted there
was no secret behind his
club’s recent impressive
record against Geelong,
which includes last year’s
lopsided preliminary final,
and it was a case of “mak-
ing sure you bring your best
against the best”.

Demons axe former skipper Trengove

JACK Trengove’s tumultu-

The former Demons
captain only managed two
senior games this year and
seven over the past four

foot injury that needed two

CUT: Former Melbourne captain JackTrengove. Picture: AAP pick in the 2009 draft and
played 86 games in eight
seasons with the Demons.
In 2012, new coach Mark
Neeld made the contro-
versial decision to make
Trengove and Jack Grimes
co-captains.
At 20, Trengove was
the youngest captain in
the game’s history and he
stayed in the post for two
seasons.
He suffered a navicular
bone fracture in 2014 and
missed all the 2015 season.
Trengove nearly joined
Richmond at the end of
2014, but the injury meant
the move did not go ahead.
He is a highly respected
figure at Melbourne and
there was plenty of good-
will for his AFL comeback
last season.
“He leaves having cap-
tained the club through
some tough times and hav-
ing provided genuine lead-
ership to all his teammates,
particularly the younger
players coming through in
recent times,” said Demons
football manager Josh

Meanwhile, utility
Ryan Harwood leads five
delistings at Brisbane.
The Lions also cut Jarrad
Jansen, Jonathan Freeman,
Josh Clayton and rookie-
listed player Blake Grewar.
But the manager of No.2
draft pick Josh Schache has
said the key forward will
not request a trade.
There was more specula-
tion about Schache’s future
when he did not play for the
club in the NEAFL grand
final and instead returned
to Victoria, his home state.
But manager Dave Trot-
ter told Fairfax that Schache
was very happy at the Lions.

TIGERS
THE Tiger Army is on the
march after Richmond’s
stunning qualifying final win
and coach Damien Hard-
wick has urged his players to
embrace the hype.
The yellow-and-black
faithful were in full voice
at a packed MCG on Fri-
day night when Richmond
scored their first finals win
since 2001 – the first of
Hardwick’s coaching career.
With fans daring to
dream of a drought-break-
ing flag – they last saluted in
1980 – the Tigers are the talk
of the town in Melbourne
In the past, Hardwick
would have been at pains
to play down the external
noise, but he’s chosen a
different approach in his
fourth finals campaign.
“We’ve spoken to our
players ... just embrace it –
it’s going to be there regard-
less,” Hardwick told the
Seven Network’s Talking
Footy on Monday night.
“You walk down the
street, you get a cup of cof-
fee, you’re going to have
conversations, but when
we’re in our (club’s) four
walls get to work.
“We’ve been pretty easy-
going with it all … there
are going to be interviews,
there are going to be things
the players have to do. It’s
just part and parcel of the
environment that we’re in.

we’re glad to be back and

Friday’s night’s final was
a Geelong home game,
but Richmond fans made
up the majority of the
95,028-strong crowd as
they turned out en masse to
loudly support their team.
Hardwick said it was hard
not to get swept up in the
emotion of the occasion.
“It was amazing how
loud it was, especially as
the game started to go our
way in the last quarter,”
Hardwick said.
“The murmur got a bit
louder and then the cre-
scendo – it was a fantastic
experience.
“I’ve been privileged to
be a part of some big games
but when the Richmond
crowd gets up and going I
don’t think there’s anything
louder.”
The Tigers will play the
winner of the Greater West-
ern Sydney-West Coast

West Coast will start

The Eagles suffered a
21-point loss to GWS in
round 22 of the regular
season, plunging their pre-
miership hopes into abso-

Melbourne’s upset loss
to Collingwood in the final
round gave West Coast a

backed it up with an elim-

Port Adelaide that was de-

West Coast remain the
rankest of outsiders in

of the euphoric wave their
opposition will ride into
Saturday’s semi-final at
Spotless.
“They’re a super side.
They’re probably the form

“They had a super win

they’ll be riding a real high.”
One factor that could
hamper the Eagles’ hopes
of progressing to the penul-

the travel factor, especially

his plans to “run through

Kyrgios has been un-

JAMES Faulkner received

RUGBY
THE Wallabies say they’ll
treat this weekend’s Test
against Argentina like any
other despite facing the
prospect of their worst-
ever start to the Rugby
Championship.
The pressure is mount-
ing on the Australians af-
ter they blew a 10-point
lead against South Africa
in Perth on Saturday night
and were forced to settle for
a 23-23 draw.
That followed two losses
to New Zealand, meaning a
defeat to Argentina in Can-
cus Stoinis in the absence of
injured all-rounder Mitch
Marsh.
The fall from grace stung
Faulkner, who had been
considered among the na-
tion’s best white-ball crick-
eters after being crowned
player of the 2015 World
Cup final.
The 27-year-old, who has
been managing a chronic
knee injury in recent years,
used the unexpected time
berra this Saturday would
culminate in their most
dismal start to the four-
nations competition.
In 2013 they opened
with three losses but at
least cracked a win in their
fourth match, against the
Pumas in Perth that year.
It would also continue
Australian rugby’s year of
woe, with no Super Rugby
team able to defeat a New
Zealand outfit and the Test
ranking sliding to world
No.5.
Skipper Michael Hooper
said theWallabies’ approach
at home to “get strong and
fit again”.
“It was pretty tough …
any time you get left out it
is not great fun,” Faulkner
said in Chennai, where he
is set to feature in Austral-
ia’s ODI series against India
starts on Sunday.
“You have to rely on your
friends and family (for sup-
port), your teammates as
well. But it is up to you to
get back.”
wouldn’t be any different
to any other Test match de-
spite the high stakes.
“Every Test match is big
for us and we’re treating it
as a final and that’s what
the Pumas deserve,” Hoop-
er said.
The draw with the Boks’
was the second successive
match they’d given up a
lead, and while Hooper felt
the team was still getting
comfortable in “building
a game”, there are positive
signs.
“We were in control and

AWARDS
SALLY Pearson will become
the first three-time win-
ner of the Don award if the
world champion hurdler
takes it out again.
Pearson’s successful
comeback means she is
among seven nominees
for the prestigious honour,
awarded for the year’s most
inspiring performance by
an Australian athlete.
She is among the favour-
ites for the annual Sport
Australia Hall of Fame gong
after overcoming two years
of injuries to win the 100m
hurdles world title in Lon-
don in August.
She previously won the
award in 2013 and 2015,
while pole vaulter and fel-
low Olympic champion
Steve Hooker took it out in
2008-09. They have been
the only multiple winners
since the Don was first
awarded in 1998.
Boxer Jeff Horn has been
nominated after upsetting
the legendary Manny Pac-
quiao in July, along with NRL
star Johnathan Thurston for
his match-winning conver-
sion to hand Queensland
victory in State of Origin II.
World surfing champion
Tyler Wright, AFLW best
and fairest Erin Phillips and
world swimming champi-
on Emily Seebohm are also
on the shortlist.
On a nomination list
dominated by women, the
Matildas are also in conten-

to win the Tournament of
Nations last month.

“We’re growing as a team

TOUR Faulkner chases redemption in
India following national recall
CRICKET
BY COREY MARTIN
L AU N C E S TO N- B O R N
James Faulkner has opened
up about his roller-coaster
12 months leading into this
month’s ODI redemption
tour of India.
The Tasmanian all-round-
er lost his Cricket Australia
contract and was axed from
Australia’s Champions Tro-
phy squad earlier this year
but has been given a chance
to prove his worth in the five-
match subcontinent series.
Faulkner, 27, said he re-
ceived little counsel from
selectors following his sharp
demise after winning the
2015 World Cup final man of
the match award.
“I didn’t get too much
feedback (from selectors), to

cap said.
“They said the pace has
dropped down a little bit,
maybe. But I bowl a lot of var-
iations, so it’s a tough one.”
Faulkner’s on-field heroics
during his peak earned him
the nickname “The Finisher”,
particularly the 2013 tour of
India when he hit 230 runs
and took seven wickets.
However, he said a debili-
tating knee injury has made
going tough in recent times.
“I have been battling, to be
honest, for probably the last
18 months, so it’s been nice
to be home in Tassie with my
teammates there and hit the
gym hard,” he said.
“My training definitely
