Trevor’s vision for hockey<br />

HAD the pleasure last<br />

I month of spending a<br />

couple of hours in the<br />

company of Redcliffe<br />

Leagues Hockey Club<br />

president Trevor Barsby.<br />

Trevor, who besides having<br />

a strong link to hockey also<br />

played more than 100 matches<br />

for the Queensland Bulls<br />

cricket team, is passionate<br />

about sport.<br />

I have known Trevor for a<br />

long time and enjoyed hearing<br />

about his plans and visions for<br />

hockey, which is by and large<br />

an amateur sport.<br />

It is great to see someone of<br />

his ilk contribute to sport on<br />

the Peninsula and be prepared<br />

to meet its challenges head<br />

on. Like all sports, hockey is<br />

competing for people’s time<br />

and trying to lure youngsters<br />

along to try it out.<br />

I was fortunate to watch the<br />

Redcliffe men’s A grade play<br />

a match on the club’s artificial<br />

turf at Mary Nairn Fields<br />

alongside Oxley Avenue.<br />

Hockey requires great skill<br />

and courage and it was<br />

fascinating to see the different<br />

body shapes to what I am<br />

used to on a rugby league<br />

field.<br />

The Redcliffe Leagues<br />

Club has been a sponsor of<br />

hockey on the Peninsula for at<br />

least two decades and we are<br />

proud of the association<br />

between the two sports.<br />

I last watched a game in<br />

1976 and the introduction of<br />

new surfaces certainly has<br />

enabled the sport to evolve,<br />

Staff feedback wanted<br />

EASTER long weekend<br />

trade was extremely<br />

pleasing around the club.<br />

Considering the beautiful<br />

weather for all four days,<br />

patrons could be excused for<br />

soaking up the wonderful<br />

sunshine and hanging around<br />

the shoreline.<br />

I think it may have been a<br />

mixture of both. Redcliffe is<br />

such a beautiful diverse place<br />

that there is something to do<br />

for every part of the day<br />

whether it’s indoors or out.<br />

Our staff is really focusing<br />

on the customer experience<br />

during trade. As chairman<br />

Bob Jones has mentioned in<br />

the past <strong>Dolphins</strong> <strong>News</strong><br />

issues, we have put in place a<br />

five-year plan and with many<br />

varying parts that make up our<br />

vision.<br />

Among many others is<br />

providing an exceptional<br />

customer experience and we<br />

ask our staff to treat our<br />

customers the way they would<br />

like to be treated on their day<br />

although Redcliffe still boasts<br />

a couple of grass fields.<br />

Best of luck to Trevor and<br />

his crew. He was an<br />

outstanding cricketer and an<br />

even better bloke.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

BACK to rugby league, a<br />

sport I am a touch more<br />

familiar with.<br />

I would like to focus on<br />

Simon Malcolm, a young<br />

forward with our Colts.<br />

Malcolm has inspired me<br />

over the past couple of years<br />

with his dedication and<br />

perseverance to the sport.<br />

He would be the first to<br />

admit he is not the most<br />

athletic of players, however<br />

through hard work and<br />

mental toughness he has<br />

worked his way into our<br />

Mal Meninga Cup squad<br />

and now our top Colts<br />

combination.<br />

Malcom continues to<br />

off during their valued leisure<br />

time.<br />

The club has numerous<br />

feedback forms scattered<br />

throughout the club and we<br />

ask you to fill one in as it is an<br />

invaluable source of<br />

marketing intelligence.<br />

Whether it’s positive or<br />

negative, we appreciate the<br />

customer feedback.<br />

Pilates and yoga have their<br />

own home on the first floor of<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> Health Precinct.<br />

Unofficially we will be<br />

operating classes this month,<br />

amaze me at training and on<br />

the training paddock as he<br />

doesn’t whinge at the<br />

workload and just grins and<br />

bears it.<br />

As someone who has<br />

struggled with his weight,<br />

before Christmas Malcolm<br />

consulted a dietician and<br />

has changed his eating<br />

habits.<br />

The result has been a<br />

slimmer version and a<br />

couple of strong showings in<br />

his Colts outings.<br />

Malcolm’s dedication is a<br />

good lesson to us all and<br />

especially the more<br />

athletically gifted who think<br />

they don’t have to put in as<br />

hard work as they should.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

FORMER Dolphin and<br />

Queensland State of Origin<br />

forward Michael Crocker<br />

dropped into the Leagues<br />

Club last month.<br />

Mick was there as a<br />

representative of the Rugby<br />

League Players Association,<br />

for which he works after<br />

retiring from an illustrious<br />

NRL career with the Roosters,<br />

Storm and South Sydney.<br />

As a <strong>Dolphins</strong> product who<br />

went on to play for Australia,<br />

he was delighted with his<br />

mural in the club’s Legends<br />

Bar.<br />

It’s great to see Mick still<br />

involved in the greatest game<br />

of all.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

WE were all saddened to<br />

learn of the passing of one of<br />

the “originals”, 1960 first<br />

but we have the grand opening<br />

of the Balance Pilates Mind<br />

and Body Studio in very early<br />

June.<br />

This gives us more valuable<br />

floor space to offer even more<br />

variety and classes in the<br />

group fitness room. So come<br />

along join, get fit and healthy<br />

as we would love to have you<br />

on board.<br />

Tony Murphy<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> Group CEO<br />

grader John Karey, who<br />

passed away in his Murgon<br />

home last month.<br />

John was a passionate<br />

Redcliffe man who spoke<br />

fondly of his playing days on<br />

the Peninsula after he and<br />

his mates from Caboolture<br />

joined Redcliffe’s push into<br />

the BRL in those early<br />

years.<br />

John spoke proudly of the<br />

50-year anniversary put on<br />

in 2010 by the football club<br />

at Dolphin Oval where he<br />

and his mates from that<br />

inaugural 1960 BRL team<br />

were treated to a day<br />

watching the first grade<br />

team play.<br />

John is survived by his<br />

wife Daphne, his children<br />

Leeah and Scott and their<br />

families and they have the<br />

sympathy of all at the club.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

AFTER a slow start to the<br />

season, the <strong>2014</strong> <strong>Dolphins</strong> are<br />

motoring along under the<br />

radar.<br />

Although they dropped a<br />

point against the Capras, the<br />

return of halfback Adrian<br />

Davis sparked a solid win<br />

over Souths Logan.<br />

Adrian has been a<br />

revelation since joining us<br />

from the Newcastle Knights<br />

and is going great guns. Apart<br />

from his individual brilliance,<br />

what I like is his constant talk<br />

on the field.<br />

Every side needs a yapper<br />

Robert racks up $5200 win<br />

LUCKY member Robert Lane could<br />

not have asked for a better farewell<br />

present than to win the latest Birthday<br />

Card Draw.<br />

Two weeks after taking out the March 27<br />

draw, Robert and his wife Beverley were on a<br />

17-day cruise to Hawaii from Sydney.<br />

A club member for the past 20 years, Robert,<br />

membership number 6626, said his draw win<br />

took a little while to sink in. The first name<br />

drawn out, Gloria Blanch, 55451, was not<br />

present.<br />

“We go to the draws every time,” Robert<br />

said. “We will be there in July for Beverley’s<br />

birthday. The vouchers we receive with this<br />

win are magic. We have used some of them<br />

already.”<br />

The Lanes, of Kippa-Ring, said they tried to<br />

get down to the club as often as they could.<br />

“We are retired so there is so much to do,”<br />

he said. “We like to go for a meal and also like<br />

to spend a couple of dollars in the donation<br />

area.<br />

When the first lady in the draw wasn’t there,<br />

I thought I was still in with a chance. And when<br />

they said Robert and what a nice name that<br />

was, I thought maybe. And then my surname<br />

and I was over the moon.”<br />

One lucky member claims the major prize<br />

on the last Thursday of the month. Somewhere<br />

between 5.30pm and 7.30pm, the club draws<br />

one lucky member from our birthday barrel to<br />

take home $5200 in prize vouchers.<br />

As with every Birthday Card draw we hold,<br />

you have to be here to claim your prize. If you<br />

aren’t here when your name is called, we<br />

simply pull another name out of the barrel and<br />

give the prize to them.<br />

This month’s Birthday Card draw is on<br />

Thursday, <strong>May</strong> 29.<br />

EUCHRE results: Friday, March 28:<br />

Bob Pointon 14 wins, Marguerite<br />

Larkin and Jim Turner 12, Diny<br />

Appleby, Marguerite Larkin and Pat<br />

Hull 11.<br />

April 4: John Carter 12 on countback<br />

from June McAnnally, Alf Drewett 11<br />

on countback from Diny Appleby,<br />

Carol Turner and John Stevenson.<br />

Draw heads to $7000<br />

THE weekly members draw has continued<br />

its upward trend once again.<br />

After going off at $9400 to 93-year-old<br />

George Bullerwell on February 5, the<br />

jackpot started at a boosted $6000.<br />

The draw sees three membership<br />

numbers chosen each Wednesday between<br />

6pm and 8pm using a random number<br />

selector.<br />

If not won that evening, the jackpot goes<br />

up by $100 each Wednesday until it is won.<br />

Here are the names and membership<br />

numbers from the latest draws:<br />

March 26: $6500<br />

ABBALIVE is the most perfect<br />

reproduction of ABBA you will ever<br />

see and hear!<br />

The days of tribute shows making<br />

fun of ABBA’s music and Swedish<br />

accents are gone.<br />

ABBA’s incredible genius and<br />

obviously timeless music have proven<br />

this Swedish supergroup deserve to be<br />

taken seriously. Never in the history<br />

of popular music has a group or artist<br />

been relived in such an astounding way<br />

from one generation to the next.<br />

ABBALIVE refuses to be just<br />

another ABBA tribute show! Each of<br />

or her respective instrument, not only<br />

in qualifications and performance, but<br />

in lecturing and teaching as well.<br />

Over a six-month period, ABBALIVE<br />

meticulously dissected the songs of<br />

ABBA and carefully placed every note<br />

and magical harmony back together<br />

to create a brilliant replica of these<br />

wonderful songs.<br />

The fabulous music and magical<br />

vocals of ABBA are now presented as<br />

never before, in a professional<br />

production that provides tasteful<br />

quality entertainment for all ages.<br />

Using a live band, full choreography,<br />

spectacular costumes and brilliant<br />

production, it is without a doubt the<br />

best ABBA show to emerge from<br />

Australia. After selling out shows<br />

Cup squads try hard to qualify<br />

THE Village Motors Redcliffe <strong>Dolphins</strong> Cyril Connell Cup and Mal<br />

Meninga Cup competitions have come to their conclusion.<br />

Coaches of the <strong>2014</strong> squads were<br />

Wayne Weekes (Cyril Connell) and Tony<br />

Vidler (Mal Meninga).<br />

Wayne had a tough job selecting the<br />

under 16 squad. The initial training group<br />

included a variety of local Redcliffe juniors<br />

and players from the <strong>Dolphins</strong>’ affiliates<br />

clubs. Mitchell Stokes from the Burpengary<br />

Jets has been very impressive as has<br />

Lachlan Murray from the Narangba<br />

Rangers.<br />

The Cyril Connell Cup squad had a<br />

tough initiation into their competition.<br />

After very good trial form with wins over<br />

Easts and Wynnum-Manly, the team wasn’t<br />

able to record a win heading into their<br />

final clash against Wynnum-Manly at<br />

Kougari Oval.<br />

The under 16s finished off their season<br />

with a hard-fought draw against the<br />

Seagulls.<br />

As the competition progressed, there<br />

were promising signs for the under 16<br />

group, who will be much better for the<br />

exposure into the next level of their<br />

rugby league. Wayne and his staff have<br />

done a great job this season.<br />

Tony Vidler had his first stint as head<br />

coach of the program after two previous<br />

seasons as assistant and had the task of<br />

defending the Mal Meninga Cup state title.<br />

The bulk of last year’s squad backed up<br />

for their second season and things were<br />

looked promising for thee under 18s.<br />

New players to join the squad and impress<br />

were Mitchell McPaul, Reece Vincent and<br />

Brandon O’Regan.<br />

Brandon is a noted speedster and<br />

scored two sets of hat-tricks through the<br />

competition and will push for a senior<br />

position here in the not so distant future.<br />

The Mal Meninga side has done things<br />

the tough way, consistency being the<br />

major factor in their run to the finals.<br />

• CLUB captain Bailey Rogers<br />

runs the ball up for the <strong>Dolphins</strong>’<br />

Mal Meninga Cup team.<br />

Beating top four sides in Norths and<br />

Gold Coast Green, then losing to the less<br />

fancied Ipswich and a very tough loss to<br />

Gold Coast White at Tweed Heads had<br />

them teetering on the finals edge going<br />

into the last round versus Wynnum.<br />

The scenario for the team was win and<br />

you are in. Wynnum showed plenty of<br />

form in their final weeks, racking up over<br />

100 points in attack.<br />

The impressive record wasn’t enough<br />

in the do-or-die final fixture however and<br />

went down to the line for a two-point<br />

loss of 18-16. The staff of the under 18<br />

squad have put together a terrific program<br />

for this season and the players have<br />

benefited largely and improved from it.<br />

The sole focus of these programs is<br />

skill development for progression to<br />

senior football. Players from both squads<br />

should be commended on their discipline<br />

and application to their football through<br />

these competitions. The future of the<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> is burning bright with the<br />

current group of juniors coming through.<br />

DOLPHIN Oval has been named the<br />

<strong>2014</strong> host of the QAIHC Arthur<br />

Beetson Foundation Murri Rugby<br />

League Carnival.<br />

The announcement was made last<br />

month by Arthur Beetson’s son at a<br />

press conference at Dolphin Oval<br />

with carnival stakeholders and<br />

sponsors.<br />

The decision to move the 2012-13<br />

Ipswich-based carnival to Redcliffe<br />

has the support of carnival naming<br />

rights sponsors Arthur Beetson<br />

Foundation and Queensland<br />

Aboriginal and Islander Health<br />

Council.<br />

Attending the media release for<br />

the announcement were QRL<br />

chairman Peter Betros, local MP Reg<br />

Gulley, MBRC <strong>May</strong>or Allan Sutherland<br />

and other indigenous organisation<br />

representatives including Deadly<br />

Choices and the Institute for Urban<br />

Indigenous Health.<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> president Bob Jones said<br />

he and the board were over the moon<br />

to host the carnival and is looking<br />

forward to working with the Arthur<br />

Beetson Foundation and QAIHC<br />

leading up to the event.<br />

“The recent redevelopment of<br />

junior fields and the ability to play<br />

several games at once provided the<br />

perfect location for a carnival with<br />

the size and calibre of the Murri<br />

Rugby League Carnival,” he said.<br />

“We host our second Close The<br />

Gap home game on <strong>May</strong> 18 and have<br />

had the pleasure of working with the<br />

Murri Carnival sponsors at these days<br />

the last two seasons.<br />

“Extending that relationship to<br />

promote Aboriginal and Torres Strait<br />

Islander health on such a large scale<br />

with Lizzie Adams (QAIHC<br />

chairwoman) is a challenge we’re<br />

excited about.”<br />

Players from participating teams in<br />

under 15s, women and senior grades<br />

will diverge on Dolphin Oval from<br />

September 25-28.<br />

With more then 30,000 attendees<br />

in 2013, QAIHC Arthur Beetson<br />

• MAL Meninga Cup<br />

member Alex Albert<br />

kicks for the extras.<br />

DOLPHIN OVAL TO HOST MURRI CARNIVAL<br />

Foundation Murri Rugby League<br />

Carnival founder Tony Currie is<br />

expecting the popularity of the event<br />

to increase with the location change.<br />

“There is lots of history here with<br />

Dad,” Brad Beetson said. “He played<br />

his first game here, we buried him<br />

here and had his funeral here.<br />

“It will be an emotional return, but<br />

we feel like it is coming back, coming<br />

home.”<br />

New road laws just around the bend<br />

WITH the Port Macquarie Iron<br />

Man race quickly approaching,<br />

our fearless leader and race<br />

competitor Dan Hutchinson is in<br />

the tail stretch of his gruelling<br />

training regime.<br />

Part of this training involves weekly<br />

bike rides of as far as 200km in length, all<br />

on the open roads of south-east<br />

Queensland.<br />

It has therefore been with considerable<br />

interest over the past few months that<br />

the Cooke and Hutchinson team has<br />

been observing the new developments<br />

on Queensland’s cycling laws.<br />

Recent years have seen a marked spike<br />

in the amount of people taking up cycling<br />

in the wider Brisbane area.<br />

While this is obviously good from a<br />

community health perspective, there had<br />

been an alarming increase of incidents<br />

involving cyclists and motorists.<br />

One of the worst of these was the<br />

tragic death of young Brisbane cyclist<br />

Richard Pollett in June of 2011, which led<br />

to Queensland MP Bruce Flegg calling for<br />

an examination into cycling conditions on<br />

Queensland roads.<br />

From April 7, we will see the fruits of<br />

that examination, with the introduction<br />

of a two-year-trial whereby motorists<br />

will have to give at least a metre of space<br />

to cyclists in 60km/h or less zones and<br />

1.5 metres in faster zones.<br />

Penalties for non compliance have yet<br />

to be determined, however, fines for<br />

cyclists who break the road rules will<br />

now also be brought into line with those<br />

faced by motorists.<br />

“These changes have been a long time<br />

coming,” Mr Hutchinson said. “I have<br />

seen, and sometimes been the subject of,<br />

a number of instances of unacceptably<br />

DELTA Hospitality Supplies has delivered a rather<br />

large gift to Dolphin Oval – a new canteen.<br />

Several tasks are under way to prepare for its<br />

launch, including gasworks, plumbing, shade awning<br />

installation, a new retaining wall for the end of Don<br />

McLennan Hill, concrete walkways and supports as<br />

well as electrics.<br />

“We are expecting the canteen to be fully<br />

operational for the Norths Devils game on <strong>May</strong> 11<br />

as long as none of the projects are weather delayed,”<br />

football manager Grant Cleal said.<br />

“The last couple of games we have had ticket<br />

sales working out of their new home at the end of<br />

building where our supporters enter at the<br />

northern gate.<br />

“They aren’t dependent on power, so we have<br />

seen that as a test run for usage. We are happy to<br />

see that has worked to the plan so far. The catering<br />

staff can hardly wait for their turn.”<br />

dangerous conduct from passing<br />

motorists while out on the bike.<br />

“Most of the time I don’t think it is<br />

intentional. I just think that that, from the<br />

surrounds of their cars, trucks or buses,<br />

it’s easy for motorists to underestimate<br />

how close their vehicles can sometimes<br />

get to cyclists.”<br />

But locally the initial signs are that the<br />

community seems to have taken the new<br />

laws seriously.<br />

“Since the announcement of the<br />

upcoming changes, I have certainly<br />

noticed a marked difference from passing<br />

motorists, the majority of whom have<br />

started to give our group a bit more<br />

space on the road,” Mr Hutchinson said.<br />

“There will always be the odd one or<br />

two who will look to cause trouble and,<br />

overall, I think we still have a long way to<br />

go.<br />

“However, it has been really heartening<br />

to see the response from the wider<br />

community. With any luck a few of them<br />

might be encouraged to come down and<br />

join us.”<br />

well. I could sense we were ready to play. I<br />

was happy with how we handled ourselves in<br />

defence and how the pack went. Tom<br />

Geraghty had his best game for us yet and the<br />

halves combined well. Tweed are a big side<br />

and quite mobile and try to charge through<br />

to, but we handled that tactic well. The surface<br />

was quite good despite the weather around<br />

and it was not too boggy, although it made<br />

conditions a bit slippery for ball handling.<br />

Luckily our defence was up to the job as we<br />

didn’t the control well in the second half.”<br />

CLUBHOUSE NEWS<br />

Depth at <strong>Dolphins</strong><br />

keeps sides afloat<br />

THE strength of any club can be<br />

judged by the depth in its playing<br />

depths.<br />

We have been fortunate at the <strong>Dolphins</strong><br />

that over the years we have always boasted<br />

formidable reserve grade and Colts<br />

combinations.<br />

This season appears no different with<br />

both our FOGS A grade and Colts<br />

undefeated on top of their respective<br />

ladders.<br />

Just before the Sunshine Coast clash,<br />

the Colts were two wins clear of their<br />

closest rival while the reggies have only<br />

had four fixtures.<br />

Grant Flugge’s men were a little bit<br />

fortunate against Souths Logan after<br />

conceding a large lead to the visitors.<br />

It is a measure of composure that they<br />

were able to come back from 10 points<br />

down with eight minutes left to snatch<br />

victory with a Ben Cook kick from the<br />

sideline for a 28-26 win.<br />

This side has a never-say-die attitude<br />

and that is hard to instil in any team.<br />

Most oppositions can compete with<br />

our Colts for a while, but then they grind<br />

them down and in the backend of matches<br />

are powering home.<br />

Although they have some new faces, the<br />

majority has played together either in<br />

Colts or in the Mal Meninga Cup and<br />

know each other’s game well.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

WE might just be able to form a<br />

front-rowers union at the <strong>Dolphins</strong>.<br />

Former outstanding Redcliffe<br />

captain Chris Farrell has returned to<br />

the club as assistant coach with our<br />

Colts.<br />

Chris was an outstanding example<br />

both on and off the field in his time<br />

at Dolphin Oval and will help out<br />

Colts coach Brendan Lam.<br />

Premiership prop Adam Starr has<br />

been assistant coach with the FOGS<br />

Cup for a couple of years and I<br />

suppose I spent enough time in the<br />

engine room to qualify as a frontrower.<br />

Brendan had approached me to<br />

find someone to help out in the<br />

forwards as he and Mick Roberts<br />

primarily looked after the backs.<br />

Chris’ experience speaks for itself<br />

and his love of the game is such that,<br />

although busy at work, he is<br />

surrendering some of his time for<br />

our club’s youngest players.<br />

His guidance will be invaluable to a<br />

side that already is showing the<br />

spark to grab a premiership.<br />

Speaking of props, another familiar<br />

face back in the red and white is<br />

James Crombie.<br />

The “Big Rig”, who recently spent<br />

time with the Capras, has already<br />

turned out for Grant Flugge’s FOGS<br />

A grade and his power and<br />

experience could come in handy in<br />

the coming rounds.<br />

★ ★ ★ ★<br />

ONE Dolphin who fans could be talking<br />

about in the future is winger Tom Opacic.<br />

I coached this outstanding back in our<br />

Colts in 2012 and he was exceptional,<br />

racking up 17 tries in 16 games.<br />

He has moved on to the Broncos,<br />

playing in their NYC side on the wing. He<br />

trains hard and plays hard and is reaping<br />

Coach’s comments: “This was a point that<br />

we let go. You have got to win those sorts of<br />

games, especially after we had a good lead.<br />

The reality is that we didnít play well enough.<br />

We scored early and then again and though<br />

we had the match won. We got a little<br />

complacent and didnít keep doing the hard<br />

work. It was a good lesson that anyone can<br />

beat anyone on their day. The suspension to<br />

half Adrian Davis hurt us. I knew it would but<br />

I thought that we could cover that pretty well<br />

but it didnít work out that way. We were<br />

expecting Cameron Cullen to play on the<br />

weekend but a scan showed that he has a<br />

fracture in his ankle and he is out for a<br />

month.”<br />

FOGS Cup: Matt Boyce<br />

Colts: Leading Edge Sports player of the<br />

• TOM OPACIC<br />

his rewards.<br />

I’m not sure if we will see him back in<br />

the red and white this season as Tom<br />

keeps progressing, but here’s hoping.<br />

Winger Paul Byrnes, who played in our<br />

Colts last year, dropped back to us from<br />

the Broncos NYC for the Intrust Super<br />

Cup clash against Souths Logan and he<br />

was more than welcome.<br />

Injuries have bitten us a little with Jake<br />

Marketo, James Ackerman, Taylor Brown<br />

and Cameron Cullen out for stints, while<br />

prop Jon Green joined them on the<br />

sidelines for the Mackay encounter.<br />

Coach’s comments: “This match produced<br />

close to our best performance of the season<br />

so far. It was highlighted by a couple of<br />

individual showings with Adrian Davis having<br />

his game for us so far. His kicking game<br />

controlled the match for us. Props Jon Green<br />

and David Hala were strong and kept the<br />

momentum going so Adrian could play off the<br />

back of it. With Jake Marketo, James Ackerman<br />

and Cameron Cullen out, this match<br />

demonstrated our depth with a couple of<br />

young blokes gaining their chances and they<br />

seemed to step up. It will be the same against<br />

Mackay but you still need a bit of experience<br />

there.”<br />

DOLPHINS fans don’t know<br />

whether to laugh or cry over<br />

the latest developments with<br />

Kumuls forward Mark Mexico.<br />

The dynamic prop did preseason<br />

training at Redcliffe<br />

last season before signing up<br />

and playing one FOGS Cup<br />

match.<br />

An engineering student at<br />

QUT Gardens Point on a<br />

travel visa, Mexico had to<br />

return to PNG to apply for a<br />

study visa.<br />

Now he is back in the<br />

limelight after signing a oneyear<br />

deal with the Cronulla<br />

Sharks. And that was after the<br />

national press proclaimed<br />

Andrew Johns had discovered<br />

him earlier this season.<br />

Johns was wowed by the<br />

muscle-bound Mexico when<br />

he was a guest coach with the<br />

PNG Hunters, snapping<br />

photos on his mobile phone<br />

and sending them to officials<br />

at the Manly Sea Eagles where<br />

he is an assistant coach.<br />

FORMER <strong>Dolphins</strong><br />

stalwart Nick Slyney<br />

hasn’t enjoyed much luck<br />

since heading off to the<br />

UK.<br />

The London Broncos<br />

prop Nick Slyney was<br />

suspended for a match<br />

after being charged with a<br />

grade B dangerous throw<br />

on Catalan Dragons<br />

backrower Jason Baitieri<br />

in his side’s 40-24<br />

Challenge Cup defeat in<br />

Perpignan last month.<br />

Slyney submitted an<br />

early guilty plea to a<br />

dangerous throw and<br />

missed a Super League<br />

fixture against Wigan.<br />

being made as the Sea Eagles<br />

wanted to see him string<br />

several quality games together.<br />

Cronulla’s contract comes<br />

with an option to extend<br />

based on the performances of<br />

Mexico in the Intrust Super<br />

Cup.<br />

He is the second Hunters<br />

player to sign for an NRL<br />

team after Wellington Albert<br />

dominated the ruck making easy metres up<br />

centre of the field, continually making us defend<br />

off the back foot. They were on a roll in the first<br />

half and we couldn’t really stop them. Despite<br />

being down 14-0 at the break, I thought we<br />

could get back into the game. I thought if we<br />

had our share of the ball, played an up-tempo<br />

game and lifted our defence, we would be a<br />

chance. While nobody likes losing, I think we<br />

can take some positives out of the match. Our<br />

line speed and contact was terrible all night, but<br />

I think we improved in the second half. I also<br />

was really pleased with the debut of Tyson<br />

Cleal, who was in the thick of all the tough stuff<br />

upfront. He didn’t look out of place and the<br />

tougher it got the more he liked it and the<br />

better he was.”<br />

PROP<br />

Martin<br />

Cordwell had high<br />

expectations of what<br />

awaited him at the<br />

Redcliffe <strong>Dolphins</strong>.<br />

And the Sunshine Coast<br />

product has not been let<br />

down.<br />

“The <strong>Dolphins</strong> are<br />

everything I anticipated,”<br />

the 24-year-old said. “It’s<br />

been amazing so far and<br />

there has been no letdown<br />

in any way.<br />

“It has been a real<br />

honour to wear the red<br />

and white knowing the<br />

quality of the player in the<br />

past who has turned out<br />

for Redcliffe.<br />

“I am just trying to do<br />

the jersey proud. I know<br />

there’s lots of frontrowers<br />

at the club and I<br />

have to perform to my<br />

best every week to keep<br />

my spot.<br />

“That was my major<br />

motivation in joining<br />

Redcliffe … knowing that I<br />

had to perform week in,<br />

week out.”<br />

Cordwell was named<br />

18th man for the match<br />

against Northern Pride in<br />

Cairns before making his<br />

appearance in the victory<br />

over Easts Tigers.<br />

Since then the prop<br />

Cordwell<br />

ties up<br />

prop spot<br />

rotation in the 17-man<br />

squad has consisted of<br />

him, James Ackerman,<br />

David Hala and Jon Green.<br />

“There’s some big<br />

boppers amongst them<br />

with Hala and Green<br />

quality players and having<br />

them there makes my job<br />

a lot easier,” Cordwell<br />

said.<br />

“The major difference I<br />

noticed from the Sunshine<br />

Coast was the sheer<br />

athleticism of everyone at<br />

the <strong>Dolphins</strong>. Everyone at<br />

the club is pushed by<br />

everyone else and<br />

everything is done at a<br />

high intensity at training.<br />

“There’s a lot of<br />

competition to get into<br />

first grade and to stay<br />

there you have to push<br />

yourself. I enjoy that<br />

because to get to that<br />

level you have to put in<br />

and I’m feeling the fittest I<br />

have in my career.”<br />

The 109kg Cordwell<br />

said he had been privileged<br />

to play against Petero<br />

Civoniceva three times<br />

last season in his farewell<br />

season.<br />

“I played against him in<br />

a trial and then in the<br />

home and away fixtures,”<br />

he said. “To watch him play<br />

• MARTIN Cordwell<br />

surges forward<br />

against Easts.<br />

was an inspiration in the<br />

way he would just carry<br />

people along.<br />

“I joked to the guys that<br />

I had read his biography<br />

and hoped to learn how<br />

to tackle him. He is a solid<br />

man and it will take a<br />

whole team of props to<br />

replace him this year.”<br />

Cordwell signed from<br />

the Sunshine Coast<br />

Falcons after spending the<br />

past three seasons with<br />

the Kawana-based outfit,<br />

which is currently on a<br />

25-game losing streak, and<br />

before that a season with<br />

Souths Logan Colts, where<br />

he made his Queensland<br />

Cup debut.<br />

Despite a tough 2013<br />

season, he managed to<br />

score the club’s Player of<br />

the Year award.<br />

He said lack of depth<br />

and the absence of an<br />

NRL connection hampers<br />

the Falcons.<br />

“We were capable of<br />

good patches of football<br />

but if someone was hurt<br />

we had to blood new<br />

players in,” he said. “You<br />

have the situation at<br />

Redcliffe where the<br />

reserve grade is up to<br />

Queensland Cup standard.<br />

“With that depth you<br />

are pushed every week<br />

because you know that if<br />

you don’t perform<br />

someone else will. It gets<br />

the best out of me.”<br />

What is little known is<br />

that the <strong>Dolphins</strong> tried to<br />

sign him when he was a<br />

youngster, inviting him to<br />

the club’s country trial<br />

when Redcliffe were<br />

aligned with the Sydney<br />

Roosters.<br />

Cordwell is no stranger<br />

to travel, driving a truck<br />

• NEW Dolphin Martin<br />

Cordwell shows no fear<br />

in this charge into the<br />

teeth of the Tigers’<br />

defence.<br />

for his father’s transport<br />

business during the week and<br />

clocking up hundreds of<br />

kilometres to get to training<br />

at Dolphin Oval.<br />

“The travel is no hassle to<br />

me,” he said. “I’m used to it. I<br />

drive trucks all day and I’m up<br />

and down the Bruce Highway<br />

all day.<br />

“My wife and I own a unit<br />

at Chermside which cuts the<br />

travel down a bit and<br />

sometimes I will stay with<br />

FORMER <strong>Dolphins</strong><br />

halfback Dane Campbell<br />

can’t sit still.<br />

The former Redcliffe<br />

Colts premiership half<br />

played first grade for the<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> as well as the<br />

Newcastle Knights.<br />

After stints at Brisbane<br />

Easts and the Noosa<br />

Pirates, the Pirates<br />

president is keen to<br />

unearth the next wave of<br />

talent from the Pacific<br />

Islands, but it is set to<br />

come from an unlikely<br />

source.<br />

Campbell is one of the<br />

founders of the Vanuatu<br />

Rugby League and he can<br />

see the potential in the<br />

mum and dad.”<br />

He recently finished his<br />

QUT degree in exercise<br />

physiology and is starting to<br />

look for a position, preferably<br />

in Brisbane. His university<br />

days also bolstered his playing<br />

career, making three tours<br />

with the Australian<br />

Universities side.<br />

“The universities format<br />

brought my football along,”<br />

Cordwell said.<br />

“We won the World Cup<br />

island nation.<br />

“I’m extremely<br />

passionate about international<br />

rugby league<br />

and in 2011 I just couldn’t<br />

understand why the<br />

game was so big in places<br />

like Fiji and Papua New<br />

Guinea, yet we had<br />

another Melanesian<br />

country on our doorstep<br />

and were undefeated for a<br />

long time.<br />

“A lot of good players got<br />

their start with the unis and<br />

Anthony Don from the Titans<br />

is one who has gone all the<br />

way while there’s a lot playing<br />

at the Queensland and NSW<br />

Cup level.”<br />

As for his future, Cordwell<br />

has made it clear after buying<br />

a five-year membership of the<br />

Redcliffe Leagues Club. He’s<br />

not going anywhere.<br />

Dane looks to Vanuatu<br />

that didn’t have a rugby<br />

league presence at all,”<br />

he said.<br />

“Rugby union was on<br />

the decline there and I<br />

could see there was an<br />

opportunity to work<br />

with some talented<br />

athletes.”<br />

Although a large<br />

percentage of players in<br />

the NRL and the National<br />

Youth Competition have<br />

a Polynesian or<br />

Melanesian background,<br />

only two players in the<br />

NRL have Vanuatu<br />

heritage – the Melbourne<br />

Storm’s Justin O’Neill<br />

and New Zealand<br />

Special event for the Hills<br />

DOLPHINS identity Dawn Hill has celebrated her 59th wedding anniversary with<br />

husband Fred.<br />

Dawn, a life member of the Redcliffe<br />

RLFC, married Fred on April 9, 1955 in the<br />

Darling Downs town of Dalby.<br />

“I lived in Dalby and Fred had come up<br />

from New South Wales with some mates<br />

looking for work,” Dawn said.<br />

“We met on a blind date and that was it.”<br />

The couple came to Redcliffe in 1969 and<br />

Dawn has been a volunteer for the <strong>Dolphins</strong><br />

ever since. A former Redcliffe Leagues Club<br />

board member, Dawn was also honored by the<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> for her long-standing fundraising<br />

efforts and is president of the Red and White<br />

Supporters Club who travel throughout the<br />

state barracking for the <strong>Dolphins</strong>.<br />

“Fred has Alzheimer’s disease and is in a<br />

nursing home at Rothwell,” Dawn said.<br />

“For our anniversary, I was able to bring him<br />

out for only the second time in two years.<br />

“We went to the Leagues Club for lunch,<br />

which the club shouted, but nothing really<br />

focused for Fred.”<br />

The Hills have two daughters, seven<br />

grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.<br />

How much should<br />

your workout hurt?<br />

PAIN can indicate progress, or<br />

problems. Here’s how you<br />

gauge discomfort.<br />

Differentiating between the usual “I<br />

just worked out really hard” pains and the<br />

more worrisome, “I think I might’ve hurt<br />

myself” ones can be difficult, especially<br />

when you’re trying to push yourself<br />

towards progress.<br />

There’s a pain of injury and a pain of<br />

adaptation — one is bad and the other is<br />

good. To know the difference, read on.<br />

The Good Kind<br />

Comeback aches<br />

You might be doing an activity perfectly,<br />

but if you haven’t done highintensity<br />

cardio in a while, it is normal<br />

for your body to ache a bit during and<br />

after your session.<br />

Immediate aftershock<br />

When you perform an activity painfree,<br />

and then feel really sore afterwards,<br />

in the muscles you were training, that’s a<br />

good sign. Some discomfort after properly<br />

executed exercise means that your<br />

body is adapting to become more fit.<br />

(Perfectly normal) soreness<br />

Your soreness could last anywhere<br />

from two to four days post-workout.<br />

Rather than stopping all movement and<br />

letting the pain take over during that<br />

time, it is recommended that you should<br />

work through it and keep your muscles<br />

moving.<br />

The Bad Kind<br />

Biomechanical error<br />

If you don’t have any pain prior to<br />

your activity, and then you experience<br />

pain while you’re performing a particular<br />

movement, you should stop and take a<br />

step back and have a trainer evaluate<br />

your form and technique.<br />

Interconnected injuries<br />

Any chronic, pre-existing pain in your<br />

back, hips or knees might rear its ugly<br />

head in other parts of your body. For<br />

example, an ankle issue will probably<br />

create knee issues.<br />

It’s important to make those connections<br />

so that you can avoid misdiagnosis<br />

and focus your treatment appropriately.<br />

Your personal trainer and physiotherapist<br />

can work together in providing your<br />

recovery and fitness goals.<br />

Localised pain<br />

If you’re experiencing localised pain<br />

during or after strength training, it’s a red<br />

flag for you to stop and seek assistance.<br />

Acute, out-of-nowhere aches<br />

Any sharp, stabbing, traumatic, and/or<br />

sudden pains during any kind of workout<br />

should be checked out immediately.<br />

The overdoing-it variety<br />

After your two-to-four day recovery<br />

period, if the pain lingers into your next<br />

attempted exercise session, you might be<br />

overtraining or not recovering adequately<br />

enough between workouts<br />

For more information, seek professional<br />

help through <strong>Dolphins</strong> Personal<br />

Training Department.<br />

Exercise as<br />

group helps<br />

THERE’S nothing like getting<br />

together with other<br />

DHP members who have the<br />

same fitness and lifestyle<br />

goals as you and getting hot<br />

and sweaty.<br />

Our group exercise classes<br />

keep you pumped and<br />

motivated and are a social<br />

fun way to keep moving.<br />

Have you tried our<br />

Definition class yet?<br />

A body bar progressive<br />

weights class that allows you<br />

to progress at your pace.<br />

Great for those who aren’t<br />

self motivated to train on<br />

their own.<br />

Or our core conditioning<br />

is something we all need.<br />

This program targets the<br />

deep core muscles through a<br />

variety of different exercises<br />

using stability balls, bands<br />

and body weight.<br />

At <strong>Dolphins</strong>, we love exercise<br />

variety, that’s why you<br />

will find an extensive range<br />

of group exercise classes on<br />

our timetable. There are 65<br />

classes per week from land<br />

to aquatic programs.<br />

Collect your timetable at<br />

reception, download our<br />

Redcliffe <strong>Dolphins</strong> App or<br />

look on our website for more<br />

information.<br />

New facility on way<br />

A PURPOSE-built mind<br />

body facility is soon to open<br />

at <strong>Dolphins</strong> Health<br />

Precinct.<br />

Programs such as<br />

Pilate’s level 1 through to<br />

advanced apparatus,<br />

Body-Barre and Suspension<br />

training are just some<br />

of the programs clients can<br />

access.<br />

Benefits of these programs<br />

will be an increase<br />

in flexibility, core strength,<br />

balance and stability with<br />

an overall improvement in<br />

wellbeing and stress relief.<br />

All classes will be kept<br />

small to ensure proper<br />

attention to alignment and<br />

a safe practice, with each<br />

client encouraged to<br />

explore and develop their<br />

individual strengths while<br />

benefiting from a personal<br />

touch.<br />

It’s still too early to<br />

expand on programs, pricing<br />

LOWER back pain affects nearly all of<br />

us at some time in our lives and the<br />

causes can vary.<br />

Unless due to injury, often the main<br />

problem stems from low strength and<br />

endurance in the abdominal and<br />

lower back muscles, poor aerobic<br />

fitness along with poor flexibility in<br />

the lower back, hamstrings, hip<br />

flexors and gluteals (buttocks), as<br />

well as poor lifting techniques and<br />

posture.<br />

As you can see the causes can vary,<br />

but the standard prescription to fix<br />

lower back pain is to exercise, rather<br />

than rest. Personal trainers working<br />

alone or with a physiotherapist can<br />

make a difference through an exercise<br />

program for back pain.<br />

The program could include<br />

cardiovascular exercise, strength<br />

work for both lower back and<br />

abdominals and flexibility exercises<br />

for the major muscles that affect the<br />

lower back region.<br />

For more advice, speak to your<br />

personal trainer at <strong>Dolphins</strong> Health<br />

Precinct on 3880 3729.<br />

Muscles need work<br />

to maintain size<br />

WE often refer to muscles as the<br />

engines of the body.<br />

Unfortunately, muscles lose size and<br />

strength with age, resulting in physical<br />

weakness and a variety of degenerative<br />

problems.<br />

This is all part of the natural ageing process,<br />

but things can be done to help you increase and<br />

maintain size and strength of muscles just by<br />

following a regular short and effective strengthtraining<br />

program.<br />

When asked about strength training many<br />

people respond that they don’t desire big<br />

muscles.<br />

If only they knew how hard it was to get<br />

them. Rather than talking about too much<br />

muscle, we should be more concerned about<br />

having too little muscle.<br />

Unless we exercise the muscles we have<br />

properly, we stand to lose 2kg to 3kg of lean<br />

muscle every decade of our adult life.<br />

This progressive muscle loss is responsible<br />

for two of life’s major problems and can be<br />

related to a number of health-related<br />

Golden rules for healthy living<br />

Spend less time ...<br />

1. Sitting at a desk<br />

2. Sitting in a car<br />

3. Sitting in front of a TV<br />

4. Sitting in front of a computer<br />

5. Eating out at restaurants<br />

6. Drinking alcohol<br />

7. Eating fast food or junk foods<br />

8. Staying up late/not getting enough sleep<br />

And more time ….<br />

1. Being active in general (taking the stairs,<br />

consequences. The first problem is a loss of<br />

muscle means we won’t work as efficiently,<br />

which leads to less physical activity and further<br />

muscle loss.<br />

Secondly, the problem is reduced calorie<br />

use, which leads to a slower metabolism.<br />

Slower metabolism means if we consume the<br />

same amount of food it will result in the<br />

accumulation of body fat.<br />

Because our muscles are our engines,<br />

imagine if your car lost 5 per cent to 10 per<br />

cent of its power each decade but weighed 5<br />

per cent to 10 per cent heavier.<br />

After a while you would probably want to<br />

sell or trade that car in. Unfortunately we can’t<br />

do that with our bodies. That’s why the<br />

maintenance of our muscles is so important.<br />

It is advisable for anyone over 50 to seek<br />

your doctor’s advice before starting an exercise<br />

program.<br />

<strong>Dolphins</strong> Health Precinct has programs that<br />

cater to over 50s. Speak to <strong>Dolphins</strong> now for<br />

more advice. Call 388 03729.<br />

walking instead of driving, gardening,<br />

cleaning, etc.)<br />

2. Doing cardio exercise<br />

3. Strength training for all muscle groups<br />

with challenging weights<br />

4. Preparing your own meals and snacks<br />

and eating fruits, veggies and whole<br />

grains<br />

5. Reading food labels<br />

6. Tracking your calories<br />

7. Sleeping<br />

8. Dealing with stress in a healthy way<br />

APRIL has now been and gone, a third of the<br />

year has absolutely flown by.<br />

I hope that all Old Boys, Dolphin supporters<br />

and their families had a happy and safe Easter<br />

break.<br />

The game of football the <strong>Dolphins</strong> played<br />

against the Easts Tigers was an absolute<br />

cracker, and after taking care of Tweed,<br />

drawing with the Capras, then dishing the<br />

Souths Magpies up, Troy’s boys certainly<br />

look like they have turned the corner.<br />

Flugge’s reggies and the Colts are<br />

continuing their great starts to the year and it<br />

is all looking good for a great season in <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

The April social saw a group of 30 plus Old<br />

great weather and even better good old<br />

country hospitability, a great day was had by<br />

all. The bus trip back to the club was relatively<br />

quiet. Obviously the majority of us returned<br />

with our wallets somewhat lighter, as there is<br />

about, so when the North Lakes Kangaroos<br />

approached us at the start of the season<br />

looking for a helping hand with sponsorship,<br />

we were more than willing to help, but at the<br />

beginning of any year our funds are fairly<br />

limited.<br />

This is where the Redcliffe Old Boys<br />

Masters Rugby League Club stepped up to<br />

the mark. We would like to thank Keith<br />

their valuable contribution in giving the<br />

Kangaroos the kick start for the year that<br />

they so deservedly warranted.<br />

A special day for mum<br />

MOTHER’S Day is one of those<br />

special days on everyone’s<br />

calendar.<br />

And the Redcliffe Leagues Club is here to<br />

take all the stress out of the day and put on a<br />

luscious breakfast spread that every mum will<br />

enjoy.<br />

Plan to spend the morning in our very own<br />

Bunny’s Family Restaurant and sit down with<br />

the family to a sumptuous banquet of hot and<br />

cold delights.<br />

The buffet also includes a juice and coffee<br />

station so there’s no need to leave early for that<br />

coffee fix.<br />

The most important thing about this<br />

breakfast is that mum is treated to something<br />

extra special – a beautiful rose on arrival – you<br />

could even take credit for organizing this little<br />

touch (we won’t mind).<br />

Five hundred results<br />

FOR more than 10 years the club’s Monday<br />

night five hundred game has been held in a set<br />

partners format.<br />

Lately our playing numbers have been<br />

falling slightly so management decided to trial<br />

a moving partners game on April 28.<br />

This means that you don’t have to come<br />

along with a partner on that night. For example,<br />

if we play 12 games, a contestant would play<br />

with a different partner each game.<br />

If the trial is successful, it could mean that<br />

we could play more moving partner games or<br />

even revert to this style permanently.<br />

Obviously we are trying to improve playing<br />

numbers and this could help us in that regard.<br />

Any five hundred players who like to play the<br />

Plan ahead with someone<br />

you can trust.<br />

Simple mum’s surprise<br />

If a full sit-down affair is not something that<br />

mum enjoys, or perhaps you simply can’t book<br />

anything in advance because mum is always<br />

busy, never fear.<br />

Our Koopa Café will also be opening its<br />

doors from 7.30am on Mother’s Day.<br />
