The Weekly Times - TWT - 3rd April 2019

The Weekly Times - TWT - cheekily describes itself as a campaigning, crusading, truth-seeking, death defying, Aussie battler-aligned, one-eyed-Tiger-led news organisation dedicated to Sydney's north west. It's one of the few remaining independently run community newspapers and turns 100 years old in 2021 - so if you want to show your support for independent media, have a quick look at the paper, submit a letter to the editor via its website or like or share one of its posts on social media. The flip book - or digital edition/replica - for TWT's 3rd April 2019 edition can be reached at this sharable web address: https://weeklytimes.com.au/the-weekly-times-twt-3rd-march-2019/ And the most current edition of TWT is always reachable using this short web address (URL): bit.ly/OurTWT

Climate change not<br />

caused by CO2<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Climate change may be<br />

occurring but I don’t believe<br />

it is caused by carbon<br />

dioxide (Co2).<br />

Carbon Dioxide is a necessary<br />

gas for plant life.<br />

Through the God given<br />

process of photo synthesis<br />

plant life takes in Co2 and<br />

gives out oxygen.<br />

<strong>The</strong> carbon from Co2<br />

becomes the numerous<br />

carbon compounds of the<br />

specific plant involved (eg<br />

fruits and vegetables) and<br />

plant life (eg grasses) for<br />

giving proteins to animals.<br />

I would like to see research<br />

carried out into<br />

other possible causes of<br />

climate change as below:<br />

1, Our planet earth is a<br />

sphere rotating once each<br />

24 hours while moving in<br />

an eliptical path around<br />

the sun.<br />

Will moving billions of<br />

tons of ores (viz iron ore)<br />

and coal from the southern<br />

hemisphere to the northern<br />

hemisphere cause<br />

bias of the spherical earth<br />

and cause earth to have a<br />

slightly different path?<br />

(2) Is the building of numerous<br />

wind farms around<br />

the world causing changes<br />

to historical wind patterns?<br />

<strong>The</strong> principle that should<br />

be followed is “To every<br />

action there is an equal<br />

and opposite reaction”.<br />

Maintenance of<br />

Lardelli Lake<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

On behalf of the residents<br />

of Putney Hill,<br />

I would like to thank<br />

Councillor Maggio and<br />

<strong>TWT</strong> reporters, for their<br />

help concerning the<br />

poormaintenance of<br />

Lardelli Lake and parklands<br />

by Frasers Property.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Councillors attending<br />

Tuesday’s meeting<br />

voted unanimously to take<br />

this<br />

matter up with Frasers,<br />

insisting they bring the<br />

community areas in Putney<br />

Hill to an acceptable<br />

standard, before Ryde<br />

Council take over the site.<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

What is the Truth? I<br />

care about the Truth.<br />

We, constituents in Ryde<br />

care about the Truth.<br />

Previously, there have<br />

been different versions<br />

of truth presented by our<br />

Mayor Jerome Laxale, Labor<br />

Candidate for Ryde<br />

and our Liberal Member for<br />

Ryde, Hon Victor Dominello<br />

MP regarding the potentially<br />

disastrous 63 storey<br />

tower at 113 Talavera<br />

Road, Macquarie Park.<br />

I’m personally convinced<br />

that both men are genuinely<br />

against overdevelopment<br />

in Ryde, yet the<br />

versions of “facts” around<br />

this potential development<br />

were at variance.<br />

We residents, now have<br />

another “Truth puzzle” to<br />

tease out. This morning I<br />

received information from<br />

Labor Candidate for Ryde<br />

re Blenheim Park acquisition.<br />

Most residents are delighted<br />

that Blenheim Park<br />

was saved from developers<br />

by the efforts of many<br />

and will be expanded<br />

through Ryde Council’s<br />

purchase of several adjoining<br />

residences.<br />

We want and need more<br />

green space for our overdeveloped<br />

Ryde.<br />

However, the message I<br />

received implied that Hon<br />

Victor Dominello MP as<br />

NSW Minister for Finance,<br />

Services and Property had<br />

influence over a decision<br />

to charge us Ryde ratepayers<br />

an extra $5 million<br />

more that what the Blenheim<br />

Park adjoining land<br />

is worth.<br />

Apparently the price determination<br />

was based<br />

on calculations as if the<br />

land was zoned R3 (which<br />

it is not nor ever has<br />

been). <strong>The</strong> land is actually<br />

zoned R2. This news<br />

is extremely concerning.<br />

So being a seeker after<br />

truth, I emailed Member for<br />

Ryde’s office, and received<br />

a prompt reply, in which it<br />

was explained that it was<br />

the independent Valuer<br />

General that set the price<br />

of the land.<br />

If anyone, including the<br />

Minister for Finance, Services<br />

and Property were to<br />

try to influence the Valuer<br />

General on any decision, it<br />

would be like trying to influence<br />

a high court judge.<br />

And, therefore totally illegal.<br />

It is concerning that the<br />

Independent Valuer General<br />

has set the price of<br />

the land as if it were zoned<br />

R3, when it is in actuality<br />

zoned R2. So I commend<br />

Ryde Council for lodging<br />

papers in the Supreme<br />

Court to challenge the<br />

Valuer General’s price determination.<br />

Back to Truth - Let’s tell<br />

it like it is; and it’s relevant<br />

I state that I was a Christian<br />

Democrat candidate in<br />

NSW State election for the<br />

seat of Ryde.<br />

JULIE WORSLEY<br />

Meadowbank<br />

Redevelopment<br />

of Ivanhoe Estate<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Ah election time, it’s<br />

come again. <strong>The</strong> mudslinging,<br />

the swipes, the<br />

attacks, the scare campaigns,<br />

lies. It goes on.<br />

It’s gotten predictable<br />

by this point. So many<br />

of these political candidates<br />

have ambition but<br />

no vision!<br />

I live in the Ryde electorate,<br />

and boy have I seen it<br />

all.<br />

Here in Ryde we had a<br />

desperate candidate Jerome<br />

Laxale who tries to<br />

deflect from all his shortcomings<br />

by attacking<br />

the local member Victor<br />

Dominello.<br />

A perfect example is<br />

Jerome accusing Victor<br />

of being complicit in the<br />

overdevelopment despite<br />

the fact that Victor remains<br />

the only State politician<br />

who has been directly attacked<br />

by developers in<br />

the last 10 years. Jerome<br />

even calls one of Australia’s<br />

best planned developments<br />

‘overdevelopment’.<br />

Yes, Victor did support<br />

the Ivanhoe estate redevelopment<br />

but unlike the<br />

Mayor who thought park<br />

upgrades made up for<br />

supporting 60 storey towers,<br />

or that a library was a<br />

good enough deal to support<br />

37 storeys.<br />

Victor ensured that nation<br />

leading charity Mission<br />

Australia not only<br />

endorsed the development<br />

but also enforced the developers<br />

to construct a<br />

school, a supermarket,<br />

park, aged care facilities,<br />

swimming pools, child care<br />

centres and new roads to<br />

go with it. On top of that a<br />

metro line and $100 million<br />

bus interchange is opening<br />

up across the street from<br />

this development.<br />

Even former State Labor<br />

Minister and Chair<br />

of Vinnies Graham West<br />

supported the Ivanhoe<br />

redevelopment. Labor’s<br />

Graham West understands<br />

the importance of bipartisanship,<br />

if only many more<br />

did.<br />

Has Victor seriously been<br />

that good a local member<br />

that the opposition are attacking<br />

him over supporting<br />

a development that is<br />

being endorsed by both a<br />

nation leading charity and<br />

former Labor Minister?<br />

<strong>The</strong>y may as well attack<br />

Victor for posting too many<br />

selfies on his facebook if<br />

they’re stooping that low.<br />

Success with ‘<strong>The</strong><br />

People’s Mayor’<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

l recently applied to<br />

Ryde Council to remove<br />

a tree.<br />

It was refused by way of<br />

a “standard letter” in my<br />

opinion.<br />

<strong>The</strong> tree was a danger<br />

to the public, but after repeated<br />

conversations still<br />

couldn’t convince Council.<br />

Enter Councillor Roy<br />

Maggio, well what a difference.<br />

Roy worked tirelessly<br />

and diligently, kept me in<br />

touch all the way and finally<br />

Council granted permission.<br />

I congratulate the “People’s<br />

Hunters Hill Guest Column<br />

Salute to Hillies 1969<br />

local rugby Cup heroes<br />

HUNTERS HILL Rugby<br />

Club are planning a 50<br />

year Reunion for members<br />

of its 1969 premiership-winning<br />

Whiddon<br />

Cup team that ruled the<br />

roost in the Sydney Metropolitan<br />

Sub District<br />

Rugby Union competition.<br />

That Hillies team<br />

created history when<br />

they lifted the club’s<br />

first-ever Whiddon<br />

Cup title after a hard<br />

fought 6-3 victory<br />

over Reserve Bank at<br />

Woollahra Oval.<br />

I played as a winger<br />

for Hunters Hill that<br />

day and can vividly<br />

recall the euphoria and<br />

excitement that was<br />

associated with that<br />

great triumph.<br />

To celebrate this major<br />

milestone, present day<br />

Hillies officials have<br />

planned a reunion<br />

for team members of<br />

our Class of 1969 on<br />

Saturday <strong>April</strong> 27 at<br />

Boronia Park Oval.<br />

This date coincides<br />

with Hunters Hill’s first<br />

home game of the <strong>2019</strong><br />

season and officials<br />

are keen to invite the<br />

heroes of 1969 along<br />

to the ground for a five<br />

decade salute.<br />

* * *<br />

THAT 1969 Hunters<br />

Hill team featured two<br />

of our greatest halves<br />

in five eighth and<br />

skipper Tony Brunsdon<br />

and crafty number nine<br />

John White.<br />

Both went on to<br />

represent Sub Districts<br />

with John carving out<br />

an illustrious career with<br />

the Hillies - chalking up<br />

over 500 matches for<br />

our proud club which is<br />

an outstanding feat.<br />

Another key player<br />

was our classy 21<br />

year old fullback<br />

Brian Robertson, who<br />

showed his brilliant<br />

attacking skills that day<br />

with dashing forays and<br />

tricky footwork.<br />

Brian was one of<br />

To <strong>The</strong> POINT<br />

with TERRY LAUNDRY<br />

several youngsters<br />

blooded in our team for<br />

the finals and proved a<br />

real gun in attack. He<br />

became a mainstay in<br />

future Hunters Hill and<br />

representative teams<br />

and later served as<br />

a Chairman of Sub<br />

Districts Rugby.<br />

In fact for the past<br />

decade I’ve teamed up<br />

with John and Brian<br />

on the club’s Archive<br />

Committee to help<br />

digitise our extensive<br />

club records.<br />

* * *<br />

OUR other winger<br />

in the champion 1969<br />

side was prolificscoring<br />

Bruce Hanson<br />

who scored the only<br />

try in that Grand Final<br />

triumph as well as<br />

kicking the conversion.<br />

We had a young Tom<br />

Cuneo and Allan Clarke<br />

playing in the centres<br />

and adding plenty of<br />

thrust to our attack.<br />

Hunters Hill fielded<br />

a powerful and<br />

uncompromising<br />

forward pack that<br />

included breakaways<br />

Steve Mazengarb and<br />

Bob Bennett; number<br />

eight Peter Wincote;<br />

second rowers Ray<br />

Bortolussi and Tim<br />

Peters; props Colin<br />

Pilkington and Terry<br />

Rust and a wily<br />

teak tough hooker<br />

in Tyrone’Bronco’<br />

Cosgrove.<br />

<strong>The</strong> team was coached<br />

by Peter Woods with<br />

Jack Johnson serving<br />

as team manager.<br />

Other squad members<br />

included Bruce Lycett,<br />

Michael Moss, Ray<br />

Hickman, Doug<br />

McNally, John Hendry<br />

and Fred Smyth.<br />

Parramatta News and Views<br />

A UFO seen<br />

in Parramatta<br />

LAST week’s edition of <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> featured a widely read<br />

report on the haunted homes of Parramatta.<br />

Ghost hunters have<br />

raved about the story<br />

but one less than impressed<br />

Parramatta<br />

worker wonders if<br />

we’re going to follow it<br />

up with an equally unbelievable<br />

story about<br />

UFO sightings in Parramatta<br />

Park!<br />

This week we ask<br />

readers if they’ve seen<br />

the Loch Ness Eel<br />

(pictured) a legendary<br />

monster thought to inhabit<br />

Parramatta’s waterways.<br />

Like Scotland’s Loch<br />

Ness monster, some<br />

suspect the gigantic<br />

Eel is a plesiosaur while<br />

others suggest it could<br />

be an eel which has<br />

mutated to an enor-<br />

Explore heritage trail through<br />

our historic Parramatta Park<br />

HERITAGE is one of Parramatta’s major attractions<br />

and the Discover Parramatta group and<br />

the City of Parramatta invite visitors to explore<br />

Parramatta Park’s colonial past.<br />

“Take a walk through history<br />

at Parramatta Park,”<br />

they said.<br />

“Given the land’s rich and<br />

varied history, Parramatta<br />

Park is crowded with interesting<br />

sites.<br />

“While some visitors<br />

choose to wander at will,<br />

making discoveries as they<br />

go, others opt for a selfguided<br />

tour..”<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are three historic<br />

walks and each focused on<br />

an important part of Parramatta’s<br />

rich heritage .<br />

“<strong>The</strong> first, the Burramatta<br />

Aboriginal Landscape Trail,<br />

covers the indigenous relationship<br />

with the land,<br />

including bush tucker, medicinal<br />

plants and fire management.”<br />

“<strong>The</strong> second, called Colonial<br />

Rose Hill, transports<br />

walkers into the late 18th<br />

century, when the British<br />

settled here, cultivating<br />

New South Wales’s first<br />

farm, a convict camp and<br />

town plans, including a<br />

grand, 70-metre wide avenue.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> third, Parramatta<br />

Park Monuments and<br />

Sites, takes in 19th century<br />

gatehouses, a ruined bathhouse<br />

and a Boer War memorial.”<br />

A visit to the World Heritage<br />

listed Dairy Cottage is<br />

to take a trip back in time.<br />

“Built in 1796, <strong>The</strong> Dairy<br />

Cottage was home to<br />

George Salter, an ex-convict<br />

turned cattleman.<br />

“In the early 1800’s the<br />

cottage was converted<br />

to a diary with a sunken<br />

milk-processing room constructed<br />

alongside.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> milk room still remains<br />

today and can be<br />

viewed beneath the adjacent<br />

Ranger’s Cottage.<br />

“Now on the World Heritage<br />

list, those wanting to<br />

learn about one of Australia’s<br />

oldest colonial sites<br />

can go on a guided tour<br />

on the second Saturday of<br />

each month.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> tours are run by the<br />

Parramatta Heritage and<br />

Visitor Information Centre,<br />

tours can be booked on the<br />

Eventbrite website.<br />

Heritage has its own<br />

sense of romance and this<br />

sense can be experienced<br />

at Parramatta Park’s romantic<br />

and historic Rose<br />

Garden.<br />

“In the park’s southeastern<br />

corner lies Rumsey<br />

Rose Garden, home to one<br />

of the biggest collections<br />

of heritage roses in Australia.<br />

“Even for rose experts<br />

who know their blooms inside-out,<br />

there’s a chance<br />

of seeing an unfamiliar variety.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> brightest explosions<br />

of colour happen in<br />

May, October and November.<br />

“However, that’s no reason<br />

to stay away the rest of<br />

the year: the lovely, central<br />

lawn is made for picnicking<br />

and sunbathing anytime,<br />

and, just nearby, Macquarie<br />

Gatehouse Tea Rooms<br />

serve a scrumptious high<br />

tea, with or without sparkling<br />

wine.”<br />

No heritage tour would<br />

be complete without a visit<br />

to Old Government House.<br />

“One of the most-visited<br />

spots in Parramatta Park<br />

is Old Government House,<br />

the oldest remaining public<br />

building in New South<br />

Wales.<br />

“Constructed between<br />

1799 and 1818, this majestic,<br />

two-storey residence is<br />

a well-maintained example<br />

of Old Colonial Georgian<br />

architecture.<br />

“Ten governors used it as<br />

their country dwelling, including<br />

Lachlan Macquarie,<br />

who, with his wife, Elizabeth,<br />

preferred Parramatta<br />

to grimy Sydney Town, and<br />

added major extensions to<br />

the building.”<br />

To see inside, visitors<br />

must join a tour, which run<br />

Tuesday to Sunday from<br />

10am to 4pm.<br />

Last week’s edition of<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> took<br />

a spooky look at Parramatta’s<br />

haunted heritage<br />

and it is no surprise to see<br />

winged creatures of the<br />

night against the backdrop<br />

of a full moon.<br />

“Visitors usually hear Parramatta<br />

Park’s grey-headed<br />

flying foxes before they<br />

see them.<br />

“After all, five or six thousand<br />

creatures can make a<br />

heck of a lot of noise.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>ir camp takes up one<br />

hectare of land in the park’s<br />

north-eastern corner, on<br />

the banks of the Parramatta<br />

River.<br />

“Passersby are welcome<br />

to watch as long as they<br />

like, provided they don’t<br />

disturb the bats, which are<br />

a threatened species.<br />

“Another 140 species<br />

of wildlife can be spotted<br />

wandering, swimming and<br />

flying around the park, including<br />

longfin eels, eastern<br />

long-necked turtles,<br />

eastern water dragons and<br />

blue-tongue lizards.”<br />

Ryde Eisteddfod new Composition<br />

Award honouring late Richard Gill<br />

Ryde Councillor and noted music composer Christopher Gordon is sponsoring a<br />

new award category in this year’s Ryde Eisteddfod honoring the late Richard Gill.<br />

Christopher Gordon said “Richard Gill was a tower of strength in Australian music<br />

and music education. He nurtured many composers and conductors and gave<br />

numerous premieres of new works, including my own.<br />

“So, given that he grew up in<br />

Eastwood and later taught at<br />

Marsden High, it is appropriate<br />

that the Ryde Eisteddfod commemorate<br />

him by offering an<br />

award for original composition.<br />

“I am sure he would have been<br />

delighted and I am honoured to<br />

sponsor the award in its inaugural<br />

year.”<br />

Ryde Eisteddfod chairman<br />

Edna Wilde OAM said yesterday:<br />

“We invite artists in all of the eisteddfod<br />

disciplines - vocal/choral,<br />

instrumental, dance, speech<br />

to submit original compositions<br />

for consideration by a panel for<br />

being judged as the winner of the<br />

RICHARD GILL <strong>2019</strong> COM-<br />

MEMORATIVE PRIZE for<br />

ORIGINAL COMPOSITION.<br />

“We are delighted that the<br />

award is being sponsored by<br />

Ryde Councillor Christopher<br />

Gordon, himself a highly credentialed<br />

Australian composer”.<br />

Entries are now open for all categories<br />

for the Ryde Eisteddfod with<br />

competition from Saturday July 13<br />

to Saturday September 7.<br />

Your City News<br />

City of Ryde Mayor Jerome Laxale and Councillor Penny Pedersen announce action to complete<br />

the missing link on <strong>The</strong> Ryde River Walk on Friday. <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO<br />

Come stroll along the riverside with us<br />

THE final missing links of the Ryde River Walk is being completed by the City of<br />

Ryde which will build a connection between Bill Mitchell Park and Ross Street at<br />

Tennyson Point.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Ryde River<br />

Walk was opened to<br />

the public in 2008 to<br />

provide access along<br />

the Parramatta River<br />

foreshore between<br />

the Gladesville Bridge<br />

and the Ryde Bridge.<br />

<strong>The</strong> missing link<br />

features a section at<br />

9.00AM - 3.30PM SAT 13 APRIL<br />

and Reserve St<br />

• Graf Avenue – between<br />

Chatham Rd and<br />

Anthony Lane<br />

Access to Coles and<br />

Woolworths carparks are still<br />

available.<br />

A rolling road closure for the<br />

parade will be in place from<br />

8.30am and approximately<br />

9.30am along Reserve St and<br />

Anthony Rd. A detour route<br />

will be signposted to assist<br />

commuters travelling within the<br />

forces people up a<br />

into local streets.<br />

<strong>The</strong> stairway has<br />

proved to be an impediment<br />

for some<br />

people while also depriving<br />

others of accessing<br />

a major part<br />

of the foreshore.<br />

At the Council meeting<br />

this week, Councillors<br />

unanimously<br />

resolved to build the<br />

connection along<br />

building the access<br />

link will ensure the<br />

Ryde River Walk can<br />

be enjoyed be more<br />

residents, more often.<br />

“Our waterfront<br />

should be available to<br />

everyone, not just a<br />

few,” Clr Laxale said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Mayor said as<br />

well as being one of<br />

the most stunning<br />

foreshore walks in<br />

Sydney, the Ryde River<br />

Walk has informative<br />

signs about the<br />

Aboriginal people who<br />

inhabited the area in<br />

colonial times.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Ryde River<br />

Walk is one of the<br />

jewels in our city’s<br />

crown and building<br />

this new connection<br />

will not only improve<br />

this fantastic outdoor<br />

space but also ensure<br />

the entire community<br />

can access this picturesque<br />

and historic<br />

part of the Parramatta<br />

River.<br />

“As the City of Ryde<br />

continues to grow, it<br />

is also imperative that<br />

as a Council we do<br />

all we can to provide<br />

more outdoor space<br />

for everyone to take<br />

advantage of and enjoy.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> connection between<br />

Bill Mitchell<br />

Park and Ross Street<br />

will be included in the<br />

<strong>2019</strong>/20 year of the<br />

<strong>2019</strong>-2022 Draft Four<br />

A report has been<br />

commissioned that<br />

Council commits to build<br />

missing link in Ryde River<br />

Walk<br />

Big news to come out of last<br />

week’s Council meeting, with<br />

Councillors unanimously<br />

supporting a move to build the<br />

missing link of the Ryde River<br />

Walk between Bill Mitchell Park<br />

and Ross Street at Tennyson<br />

Point.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Ryde River Walk is one of<br />

the jewels in our City’s crown.<br />

However, the broken section at<br />

Tennyson Point forces people<br />

up a steep stairway and into<br />

local streets, making the walk<br />

difficult for some and depriving<br />

everyone of access to the most<br />

scenic sections of the river.<br />

Fixing this missing link will<br />

make the Ryde River Walk<br />

accessible to everyone and<br />

open up more of the beautiful<br />

Parramatta foreshore to our<br />

entire community.<br />

Enhancing Macquarie Park<br />

As a result of recent<br />

conversations I have had with<br />

Macquarie Park stakeholders,<br />

it is clear that too many people<br />

are unaware about some of the<br />

great events, cafes, restaurants<br />

and open spaces in the area.<br />

To overcome this, Council<br />

has committed to partner<br />

with local businesses, the<br />

live music industry,<br />

entertainment venues<br />

and other stakeholders to<br />

develop strategies aimed<br />

at promoting the activities<br />

taking place at Macquarie<br />

Park.<br />

SAT<br />

APRIL<br />

Sincerely,<br />

/CityofRyde<br />

This will include the<br />

development and distribution<br />

of a promotional package that<br />

will provide local employees<br />

with an overview of the<br />

recreational and entertainment<br />

options available.<br />

Enhancing Macquarie Park’s<br />

status as an entertainment<br />

and recreation destination<br />

will attract new businesses<br />

and enhance Macquarie<br />

Park’s brand as the premier<br />

destination to work. It will also<br />

encourage employees to stay<br />

after work and attract people<br />

from outside the area.<br />

<strong>2019</strong> State Election<br />

Finally, I would like to<br />

acknowledge all candidates<br />

that contested local seats in<br />

and around the City of Ryde<br />

at the recent state election<br />

for their contribution to the<br />

democratic process.<br />

In doing so, I also congratulate<br />

NSW Premier Gladys<br />

Dominello and all other local<br />

MPs for their re-election to<br />

parliament and return to<br />

Village signs up for industry’s new Code of Conduct<br />

THE retirement village industry recently<br />

released an industry Code of Conduct and<br />

Leisure Lea Gardens, part of the Living<br />

Choice group of villages, was amongst the<br />

first to sign up.<br />

Linda Savige, Village<br />

manager, said that<br />

while Leisure Lea Gardens<br />

already operated<br />

to a high standard, she<br />

was proud that Living<br />

Choice had supported<br />

the Retirement Living<br />

Code of Conduct<br />

which had been released<br />

following many<br />

months of consultation.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Code is the result<br />

of 12 months of<br />

work by the Retirement<br />

Living Council,<br />

Leading Aged Care<br />

Services, Residents’<br />

Associations, Resident<br />

Committees and<br />

residents themselves<br />

and reflects the industry’s<br />

commitment<br />

to provide higher<br />

standards and peace<br />

of mind to those who<br />

have made the “wise<br />

move” to a retirement<br />

village,” she said.<br />

Developing the Code<br />

of Conduct was a key<br />

part of the 8 Point Plan<br />

which was released by<br />

the Retirement Living<br />

Council in August<br />

2017.<br />

Living Choice has<br />

been a strong supporter<br />

of the 8 Point<br />

Plan through active<br />

participation on the<br />

RLC’s Board and State<br />

Retirement Living<br />

Committees.<br />

“We are very proud to<br />

be a signatory to the<br />

Code, which will not<br />

only benefit residents<br />

but will assist staff<br />

members to deliver<br />

the best services possible,”<br />

said Linda.<br />

Code compliance will<br />

be overseen by an independent<br />

Code Review<br />

Panel, which will<br />

work with an administrator.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re will be a transitional<br />

period before<br />

the Code comes<br />

into effect on January<br />

1, 2020 and Living<br />

Choice has appointed<br />

a Code Compliance<br />

Officer to ensure that<br />

all staff members are<br />

thoroughly trained<br />

in all aspects of the<br />

Code and that village<br />

committee members<br />

are familiar with its<br />

standards too.<br />

Are street cameras coming to<br />

the heritage municipality ?<br />

CCTV cameras could be installed across Hunters<br />

Hill to prevent or act upon anti-social behaviour.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> can<br />

reveal that Hunters Hill<br />

Council staff will hold<br />

meeting with local police<br />

to discuss the issue in<br />

coming weeks as part of a<br />

broader community safety<br />

strategy.<br />

<strong>The</strong> issue came to light<br />

during last week’s council<br />

meeting where Liberal<br />

councillors Zac Miles and<br />

Clr Ben Collins asked staff<br />

to obtain quotes for CCTV<br />

cameras at Woolwich<br />

Baths and outside the<br />

Hunters Hill Sailing Club,<br />

where there have been<br />

complaints about reckless<br />

driving endangering lives.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re have also been<br />

complaints about vandalism<br />

and illicit drug use in<br />

parks as well as the deliberate<br />

destruction of trees.<br />

Councillor Ross Williams<br />

expressed concern about<br />

who will monitor the CCTV<br />

cameras and who will have<br />

powers to act of perceived<br />

anti-social and criminal behaviour.<br />

Councillor Elizabeth<br />

Krassoi argued that giving<br />

preference to hot spots in<br />

Woolwich would not be fair<br />

to residents outside that<br />

area, who have justifiable<br />

reasons why their own<br />

areas should be treated<br />

equally.<br />

is required, not debate.<br />

World’s Greatest Shave’s touching moment<br />

This year’s World’s<br />

Greatest Shave held a<br />

poignant significance<br />

for Bennelong MP John<br />

Alexander at Top Ryde<br />

City Shopping Centre<br />

on Friday.<br />

“As well raising more than<br />

$13,400 for the Leukemia<br />

Foundation, 18 months ago<br />

a member of my staff, a<br />

young man called Brendan<br />

(pictured, far right) was<br />

struck down with aggressive<br />

Stage 4 Non-Hodgkin’s<br />

Lymphoma, right in the middle<br />

of my 100km walk for the<br />

Leukaemia Foundation,” Mr<br />

Alexander said.<br />

“Brendan became dangerously<br />

ill within a matter of<br />

weeks but thankfully upon<br />

diagnosis he immediately<br />

started chemotherapy and<br />

received support from the<br />

Leukaemia Foundation.<br />

“Brendan has thankfully<br />

made a full recovery and<br />

to celebrate his 12 months<br />

back at work he and other<br />

members of my staff joined<br />

me in shaving our hair for<br />

a good cause: supporting<br />

those with blood cancers!<br />

“A special mention to Kendall,<br />

her hair was so long it<br />

was donated to make a wig!<br />

“She has informed me it<br />

will take two years to grow<br />

her hair back, she did very<br />

well committing to the<br />

cause.”<br />

Wednesday 3 <strong>April</strong>, <strong>2019</strong> THE WEEKLY TIMES 17<br />

Our local band of politicians are<br />

thrilled with their new ministries<br />

Recently re-elected government MPs across <strong>TWT</strong> territory were sworn into new ministries yesterday<br />

(Tuesday) and said they look forward to the challenges ahead.<br />

Ryde MP Victor<br />

Dominello moves from<br />

Finance, Services and<br />

Property to take charge<br />

of the Customer Service<br />

portfolio where he will be<br />

responsible for Service<br />

NSW centres and the<br />

additional role of public<br />

sector digital transformation.<br />

Former Planning Minister<br />

and Lane Cove MP<br />

Anthony Roberts takes<br />

on the role Minister for<br />

Counter Terrorism and<br />

Corrections, while Epping<br />

MP Dominic Perrottet<br />

remains Treasurer.<br />

Drummoyne MP John<br />

Sidoti is the new Minister<br />

for Sport, Multiculturalism,<br />

Seniors and Veterans.<br />

Ryde MP Victor<br />

Dominello told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> he has landed<br />

his “dream job” and can’t<br />

wait to get started.<br />

“We get elected to<br />

serve and I will serve to<br />

make it easier for people<br />

to access services online,<br />

to cut through red<br />

At West Ryde Physio, we care to help<br />

you return to your active life.<br />

Experienced titled Physiotherapists<br />

Clinical Pilates and rehabilitation exercise programs<br />

Back, neck pain and sports injury treatment<br />

Dry needling, sports taping, manual therapy<br />

Lymphoedema treatment and post breast cancer rehab<br />

Bladder and bowel pelvic floor treatment<br />

Pre and post-natal physio<br />

tape and to make sure<br />

no one gets left behind<br />

because we’re moving<br />

so fast with technology,”<br />

he said.<br />

He said he will also<br />

strive to make the community<br />

safer by working<br />

across government to<br />

fight cyber scams and<br />

other illegal activity.<br />

“I’m to control cyber<br />

security so I’ll be working<br />

across all ministries<br />

and with every agency,”<br />

he said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Ryde MP also<br />

stressed that he looks<br />

forward to taking part<br />

in what he dubbed the<br />

Ryde Renaissance.<br />

“I will keep every promise<br />

I made and we will get<br />

the new schools, we will<br />

get the new hospitals, we<br />

will get the metro, we well<br />

get the new netball court<br />

and sports fields and we<br />

will continue to provide<br />

the best public transport<br />

system.”<br />

Mr Roberts said both<br />

the Corrective Services<br />

and Counter Terrorism<br />

997 Graf Avenue (opposite Library) West Ryde<br />

0298093854<br />

westrydephysiotherapy.com.au<br />

portfolio’s present challenges<br />

he looks forward<br />

too.<br />

“In politics, like the<br />

army, you have no choice<br />

where you are posted<br />

but you pray for the best,<br />

prepare for the worst and<br />

take whatever God sends<br />

you,” Mr Roberts said.<br />

“In my public career<br />

I’ve been in portfolio’s<br />

that are challenging and<br />

nothing is more critical<br />

to me than the safety of<br />

our families from the ever<br />

present threat of terrorism.<br />

“I also take this opportunity<br />

to support our first<br />

respondents, those men<br />

and women who, while<br />

we sleep, guard us and<br />

our families.”<br />

He said that the Corrective<br />

Services portfolio<br />

offers an opportunity<br />

to rehabilitate offenders<br />

and to ensure that people<br />

who harm our community<br />

do their time.<br />

In Drummoyne, John<br />

Sidoti told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> he is thrilled by his<br />

appointment, which is his<br />

first ministry.<br />

“I’m over the moon,<br />

very emotional and can’t<br />

keep up with all the<br />

phone calls congratulating<br />

me,” he said.<br />

“Both these ministries<br />

are right up my alley and<br />

of course multiculturalism<br />

has many links with<br />

sport.”<br />

A passionate fan of<br />

the Sydney Roosters he<br />

conceded he has a “soft<br />

spot” for the Tigers.<br />

“Perhaps the Inner<br />

West will now be become<br />

the epicenter for sport!”<br />

he said.<br />

Upper house MP Damien<br />

Tudehope - who gave<br />

up his lower house seat<br />

of Epping for Mr Perrottet<br />

– is expected to come<br />

into cabinet as Finance<br />

Minister and Parramatta<br />

MP Geoff Lee has taken<br />

on the Skills portfolio.<br />

Living with<br />

Lymphoedema<br />

By HEATHER YORK<br />

SUSIE* has never quite felt herself since she had<br />

breast cancer three years ago.<br />

Her wounds have<br />

healed, she has returned<br />

to her job as a<br />

school receptionist and<br />

is back playing netball<br />

but things are not quite<br />

right.<br />

She is reluctant to<br />

share her worries with<br />

her family and friends<br />

as she doesn’t want to<br />

bother them and thinks<br />

she should be happy<br />

she is here and alive<br />

and a “breast cancer<br />

survivor”.<br />

In her quiet moments,<br />

Susie is concerned<br />

that her left arm on the<br />

side where she had her<br />

surgery, has felt heavier<br />

since she flew back<br />

from a family holiday in<br />

Bali last month.<br />

Her bra feels a bit tight<br />

on the left side and she<br />

finds it difficult to reach<br />

up and hang clothes on<br />

the line.<br />

Susie is showing early<br />

signs of lymphoedema,<br />

a progressive condition<br />

where the accumulation<br />

of protein rich fluid results<br />

in swelling of one<br />

or more limbs.<br />

As Dame Judi Dench,<br />

well known actress and<br />

patron of the Lymphoedema<br />

Support Network<br />

states “lymphoedema<br />

is a little known illness”.<br />

<strong>The</strong> National Breast<br />

and Ovarian Cancer<br />

Centre (NBOCC) review<br />

of research evidence on<br />

secondary lymphoedema<br />

states “conservative<br />

estimates suggest that<br />

20 per cent of breast,<br />

genitourinary, gynaecological,<br />

or melanoma<br />

survivors will experience<br />

secondary lymphoedema.<br />

More specifically, the<br />

incidence of lymphoedema<br />

following sentinel<br />

node biopsy which<br />

is a common surgical<br />

technique for women<br />

with breast cancer, can<br />

range from 4-8 per cent.<br />

March was Lymphoedema<br />

Awareness<br />

Month.<br />

On March 9 the Lymphoedema<br />

Support<br />

Group of NSW met in<br />

the city for an Information<br />

Day.<br />

This was well attended<br />

and an excellent<br />

opportunity for people<br />

like Susie to come and<br />

meet with other people<br />

also living with lymphoedema.<br />

Talks were given by<br />

Professor Neil Pillar, Dr<br />

John Boyages on radiotherapy<br />

and its effects<br />

and new surgical options,<br />

Tiffany Boland on<br />

exercise and practical<br />

tips and attendees also<br />

had the opportunity to<br />

visit trade displays and<br />

enjoy a delicious lunch.<br />

If you are feeling like<br />

Susie be assured there<br />

is plenty of support for<br />

you.<br />

18 THE WEEKLY TIMES Wednesday 3 <strong>April</strong>, <strong>2019</strong><br />

Secret debate on parking<br />

fines deferred in Ryde<br />

A CONFIDENTIAL debate about reducing the amount of<br />

parking fines in the City of Ryde has been deferred, pending<br />

a staff report.<br />

Last week’s debate follows<br />

a state government<br />

initiative to reduce the<br />

cost of fines imposed by<br />

council parking officers<br />

across Sydney and would<br />

see an average fine of<br />

$110 reduced to around<br />

$80.<br />

Ryde Liberal councillors<br />

have been the strongest<br />

supporters of fine reductions<br />

but <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> has learned that<br />

other councillors have<br />

concerns that reduced<br />

fines would reduce council<br />

revenue, estimated to<br />

be around two million dollars<br />

a year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> has<br />

also learned that around<br />

80 per cent of parking<br />

fines issued in the City of<br />

Ryde are issued to motorists<br />

who do not live locally<br />

and that many Sydney<br />

councils regard fining illegally<br />

parked visitors as a<br />

way to offset cost shifting<br />

from the state government<br />

onto local government.<br />

““Only four councils in<br />

Sydney have opted to reduce<br />

fines because fines<br />

are a deterrent and also<br />

fund council community<br />

services,” City of Ryde<br />

Mayor Jerome Laxale<br />

said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> is also a belief that<br />

small business wants to<br />

keep the current level of<br />

fines to discourage long<br />

term and illegal parking<br />

outside their premises- to<br />

ensure a turn around more<br />

parking, more often - but<br />

some shop owners told<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> that<br />

the regular presence of<br />

parking officers can also<br />

be a deterrent to potential<br />

shoppers.<br />

Mayor Jerome Laxale<br />

told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> he<br />

regularly gets complaints<br />

from ratepayers about illegal<br />

parking in residential<br />

streets, particularly across<br />

North Ryde and in West<br />

Ryde.<br />

Liberal councillors<br />

want to see the fine issue<br />

debated publically and<br />

openly but independent<br />

Councillor Roy Maggio<br />

wants to go further and<br />

will propose a council<br />

funded survey.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> survey will put one<br />

simple question,” he said.<br />

“Do you want parking<br />

fines in the City of Ryde<br />

reduced, yes or no ?”<br />

Councillor Maggio has<br />

released letters from residents<br />

on the parking fine<br />

issue, such as this extract<br />

from a letter he received<br />

from the Antoniou family.<br />

“In our humble opinion,<br />

the drivers should be issued<br />

with Infringement<br />

notices, as this is the only<br />

deterrent these thoughtless,<br />

selfish drivers understand,<br />

as unfortunately<br />

they don’t care.<br />

“This is evidenced by<br />

the same driver parking<br />

across the driveway, both<br />

yesterday and today.<br />

“If an infringement notice<br />

was issued, then we very<br />

much doubt they would<br />

re-offend.”<br />

Councillor Maggio also<br />

released this letter from<br />

tradesman (Mr Obeid)<br />

complaining about about<br />

a $268 fine he received for<br />

not parking on a street.<br />

”It Is not fair at all !”<br />

”I was dropping a water<br />

pump to a friend on Waterview<br />

Street as it has<br />

been raining all night and<br />

all day today and he has<br />

water in the garage.<br />

”I thought I was doing<br />

the right thing by parking<br />

the way I did as I cannot<br />

walk long distances without<br />

assistance and it was<br />

raining extremely heavy at<br />

the time.<br />

“Also I saw that there<br />

was no nature strip as it<br />

is a building site ... but the<br />

ranger said he attended as<br />

there was a complaint.”<br />

Dobbing in parking offenders<br />

appears to be a<br />

growing phenomenon in<br />

Ryde where Clr Maggio<br />

has been told it is being<br />

perpetuated by parking<br />

officer’s pro-active reac-<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Ryde Councillor Roy Maggio wants a survey to<br />

ask locals whether they want to keep their cash<br />

or spend it on fines. <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO.<br />

tion to complaints, with<br />

fines issued in preference<br />

to warnings, despite a ten<br />

minute grace period.<br />

But Mayor Laxale said<br />

illegal parking – particularly<br />

around schools - was<br />

shown to be a major issue<br />

in a recent council school<br />

safety survey and that<br />

parents want action.<br />

“I’m not saying this is<br />

not an issue,” Clr Maggio<br />

said.<br />

“But what I am saying<br />

is that we should let our<br />

residents, and all of our<br />

residents, tell as what they<br />

think.”<br />

Neighbouring Hunters<br />

Hill has two active parking<br />

officers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> has<br />

learned that agressive fining<br />

is not a common practice<br />

in the heritage municipality<br />

or in Lane Cove,<br />

according to Lane Cove<br />

Mayor Pam Palmer.<br />

“That’s not the Lane<br />

Cove way,” Mayor Palmer<br />

said.<br />

“And we do not see<br />

parking fines as a money<br />

raising measure.<br />

“We feel our (courteous)<br />

enforcement mechanism<br />

mechanism works well.”<br />

Hunters Hill Mayor Mark<br />

Bennett said his council<br />

will look at the impact on<br />

the council budget before<br />

any decision is made to<br />

reduce fines or preserve<br />

the status quo.<br />

His council is also expected<br />

to consider the<br />

impact on Victoria Road<br />

in Gladesville, where one<br />

side of the road is within<br />

Hunters Hill and the other<br />

side is policed by the City<br />

of Ryde.<br />

Residents in Hunters<br />

Hill told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

that the major parking issues<br />

are parking in No<br />

Stopping Zones as well<br />

as illegal parking across<br />

driveways and on nature<br />

strips during school arrival<br />

and leaving times.<br />

“In Hunters Hill most<br />

illegally parked cars are<br />

moved if you politely ask<br />

the owner to please move<br />

the car and I would hate to<br />

think that in Hunters Hill<br />

we would ever resort to<br />

dobbing people into the<br />

rangers,” one local resident<br />

said.<br />

Hill has<br />

boxes<br />

full of<br />

books<br />

Hunters Hill has<br />

five new libraries !<br />

<strong>The</strong>se five new mini<br />

libraries are street<br />

liibrary boxes where<br />

residents can donate<br />

a book or select a<br />

book to take home.<br />

<strong>The</strong> street libraries<br />

are an initiative of the<br />

Hunters Hill Public Art<br />

Committee and the<br />

boxes are located at<br />

Weil Park, the Harry<br />

Shelley Playground,<br />

Gladesville Road<br />

Community Centre,<br />

Crown Street in Henley<br />

and at Boronia<br />

Park Oval.<br />

Hunters Hill Councillor<br />

Justine McLaughlin<br />

from the Public<br />

Art Committee said<br />

the recently installed<br />

boxes have become a<br />

hit with residents and<br />

a talking point across<br />

the heritage municipality.<br />

“This Take A Book<br />

- Leave A Book project!”<br />

encourage users<br />

to swap their<br />

machine and there are<br />

online tutorials on how<br />

to use it.<br />

Parish Councillors<br />

Deidre Burns and Mary<br />

Hinde also thanked Mr<br />

Zimmerman and trust<br />

that parish hall users<br />

will notice the defibrillator,<br />

which is in a<br />

books for free,” Clr<br />

McLaughlin said.<br />

“It is an initiative of<br />

the Council’s Public<br />

Art Committee which<br />

has teamed up with<br />

community groups,<br />

schools and local artists<br />

to decorate our<br />

Libraries and each<br />

Library is individually<br />

painted to reflect its<br />

location.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> artists involved<br />

range from the talented<br />

Art students at<br />

Marist Sister’s College<br />

Woolwich and Riverside<br />

Pre-School students<br />

through to local<br />

watercolour artist<br />

Vickie Marchant who<br />

took her inspiration for<br />

the Street Library at<br />

Boronia Park from the<br />

prominent position on<br />

a wall near the hall’s<br />

main entry.<br />

Defibrillators can<br />

play a life saving role<br />

in the event of a perceived<br />

heart attack<br />

or other cardio emergency.<br />

Thanks to Federal<br />

many local dogs that<br />

use the park.”<br />

A feature of the library<br />

boxes is that<br />

they are open all day,<br />

seven days a week.<br />

“Street Libraries offer<br />

a range of benefits<br />

to the community<br />

including giving all<br />

members of our community<br />

access to literature<br />

and the joys of<br />

reading and encourage<br />

our community to<br />

be more sustainable<br />

by recycling and reusing<br />

their old books.<br />

“This alternative service<br />

is just one of the<br />

ways Council is engaging<br />

with our community<br />

to provide services<br />

in an innovative<br />

manner and to enliven<br />

and State Government<br />

support, defibrillators<br />

have been installed<br />

in sports clubs and<br />

community centres in<br />

recent years after a<br />

machine carried by an<br />

ambulance saved the<br />

life on media mogul<br />

Kerry Packer in 1990.<br />

Councillor Justine McLaughlin and Virginia Wise are pictured<br />

at the little library at the community centre. <strong>TWT</strong> onthe-spot<br />

PHOTO.<br />

and activate our public<br />

spaces.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Public Art Committee<br />

thanks all the<br />

artists who took part<br />

and each box has a<br />

story to tell.<br />

<strong>The</strong> box at the<br />

Gladesville Road<br />

Community Centre is<br />

decorated with flowers<br />

inspired by a recent<br />

gift of flowers to<br />

a local teacher who<br />

recently experienced<br />

a family bereavement.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> box decorated<br />

by the pre-school students<br />

is also delightful<br />

but one of my favourites<br />

is the box decorated<br />

with portraits of<br />

our local dogs,” artist<br />

Virginia Wise from the<br />

Committee said.

Sydney FC still have Premiers’ Plate in sights<br />

IT may be one mountain of a challenge, but local Sydney FC star Alex Wilkinson of<br />

Gladesville is never one to throw in the towel - and he reckons the Sky Blues can still<br />

snaffle the A-League minor premiership.<br />

With the gap between<br />

the Sky Blues<br />

and league leaders<br />

Perth Glory reduced<br />

to six points at the<br />

weekend, Wilkinson is<br />

determined to claim<br />

all three points against<br />

rivals, the A-League’s<br />

‘Mexicans’ Melbourne<br />

Victory, in Saturday<br />

night’s ‘Big Blue’ at<br />

the Sydney Cricket<br />

Ground (SCG).<br />

But it may end up<br />

being a nail-biting<br />

finish, with only four<br />

games of the season<br />

left.<br />

<strong>The</strong> good news is<br />

Sydney’s back in winning<br />

form with a confidence-boosting<br />

3-1<br />

away victory over Brisbane<br />

Roar last Friday.<br />

“Every win is important<br />

but it was nice to<br />

get back on track [on<br />

Friday night],” Wilkinson<br />

said.<br />

“[Friday’s result]<br />

gives us a bit of confidence<br />

heading into<br />

this game against<br />

Melbourne. It’s going<br />

to be a good test for<br />

us, we’re still pushing<br />

for that top spot, Melbourne<br />

did us a bit of<br />

favour against Perth,<br />

so it’s all up for grabs.<br />

“Three points on the<br />

weekend will push<br />

us a little bit closer.<br />

We still think we’re a<br />

chance of claiming the<br />

Premiers Plate and until<br />

it’s mathematically<br />

impossible we’ll keep<br />

going.”<br />

Wilkinson said the<br />

Sky Blues will be taking<br />

on Perth in a few<br />

weeks.<br />

“So if we can win this<br />

week and get a couple<br />

more wins before we<br />

play Perth then it’s going<br />

to be all to play for<br />

he said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Sky Blues are<br />

aiming to win a trophy<br />

for the third consecutive<br />

season<br />

Wilkinson, one of<br />

the A-Leagues most<br />

consistent and feared<br />

defenders who began<br />

his career as a North<br />

Ryde Soccer Club<br />

junior, said he was excited<br />

to be returning<br />

to the SCG and called<br />

on fans to turn out en<br />

masse to the iconic<br />

venue for the important<br />

clash.<br />

“We’ve had some<br />

great battles against<br />

Melbourne over the<br />

last two or three years<br />

and every time we<br />

play them It’s a fantastic<br />

atmosphere and<br />

a fantastic game,” he<br />

INTRODUCING the Epping Bulls junior cricketers that defied the odds to clinch the 2018-19 Northern<br />

Districts Junior Cricket Association Under 12 premiership.<br />

run victory.<br />

West Ryde - the reigning<br />

age champions and<br />

unbeaten 52 off 51 balls<br />

while Brown scored a<br />

dashing 50 not out off<br />

44 balls with their stylish<br />

stroke play and running<br />

quick singles a feature as<br />

the Bulls posted a total of<br />

Devya Daulat, Will Munro<br />

and Dhruv Walia turning<br />

in impressive displays<br />

Tiger cubs roar into<br />

Cup finals reckoning<br />

By CHRIS KARAS<br />

BALMAIN Junior League has launched <strong>2019</strong> in style<br />

after its junior representative teams staked a claim<br />

for the NSWRL Junior Cup finals series with important<br />

victories over North Sydney last Saturday at<br />

Leichhardt Oval.<br />

Tigers’ officials had<br />

plenty to cheer about -<br />

celebrating their Junior<br />

League season launch<br />

after witnessing the<br />

cubs topple the Bears<br />

in the U/16 Harold Matthews<br />

Cup and U/18 S.G<br />

Ball Cup competitions.<br />

Fifth placed Balmain<br />

rediscovered their best<br />

form in the S.G Ball series<br />

by trouncing North Sydney<br />

36-6 to consolidate<br />

a top eight berth while<br />

Ross Mignacca’s Under<br />

16 cubs kept their finals<br />

hopes alive with a gutsy<br />

18-14 win over the Bears.<br />

With the final preliminary<br />

round to be completed<br />

this Saturday the eighth<br />

placed Tigers’ (8 points)<br />

can secure a finals spot in<br />

the Harold Matthews Cup<br />

with a victory over Central<br />

Coast Roosters at Leichhardt<br />

Oval.<br />

Promising cubs Zac<br />

Camroux and Sam Kharwin<br />

bagged try doubles in<br />

Balmain’s thumping victory<br />

over the Bears in the<br />

Under 18 Junior Cup to<br />

rekindle their title aspirations.<br />

<strong>The</strong> cubs proved too<br />

slick and powerful as they<br />

racked up eight tries in a<br />

dominant performance<br />

with fullback Camroux<br />

and winger Kharwin demonstrating<br />

their class out<br />

wide.<br />

Camroux used his pace<br />

and tricky step to nab the<br />

Tigers opening two tries<br />

with five eighth Hayden<br />

Essery adding a third to<br />

establish a 14-0 lead at<br />

the break.<br />

<strong>The</strong> cubs created havoc<br />

after the interval with centre<br />

Josh Rizk, prop Blake<br />

Layton, lock Daniel Sykes<br />

and the elusive Kharwin<br />

(2) running in tries to complete<br />

the rout.<br />

Only wayward goalkicking<br />

from Camroux<br />

kept the scoreline from<br />

blowing out - booting<br />

two goals from eight attempts.<br />

Norths grabbed a late<br />

consolation try through<br />

Ethan Falatoi which was<br />

converted by Corey Fenning.<br />

Manly are perched on<br />

top of the S.G Ball Cup<br />

table on 13 points ahead<br />

of Canberra (12), Central<br />

Coast Roosters (12), Illawarra<br />

(11), Balmain (11),<br />

Parramatta (11), Bulldogs<br />

(10) and Cronulla (8) leading<br />

in to the final round.<br />

BALMAIN Harold Matthews<br />

Cup team produced<br />

a spirited comeback<br />

to sink the Bears in<br />

an absorbing contest.<br />

Trailing 14-0 at the interval,<br />

the Tigers rallied in a<br />

second half revival - posting<br />

an unanswered 18<br />

points to storm back into<br />

finals reckoning.<br />

Fullback Alex Miltiadous,<br />

winger Elijah Sarkis<br />

and strong running forward<br />

Brandon Tumeth<br />

crossed for tries in the<br />

space of 20 minutes as<br />

Balmain overpowered the<br />

Bears to collect two valuable<br />

competition points.<br />

Miltiadous added the<br />

extras and showed why<br />

he is an attacking weapon<br />

for the Tigers with his<br />

sharp running in the number<br />

one jumper.<br />

runners-up Moore Park<br />

before showing their superiority<br />

during a tough<br />

finals weekend.<br />

Ryde-Parramatta<br />

backed up from a hardfought<br />

victory over third<br />

seeded Strathfield on the<br />

Saturday at Moore Park<br />

Golf Club before lining up<br />

against Pennant Hills in<br />

the final staged at Stonecutters<br />

Ridge.<br />

All five matches were<br />

closely contested with<br />

Ryde-Parramatta declared<br />

the <strong>2019</strong> champions<br />

after three pairs had<br />

won.<br />

<strong>The</strong> title was claimed<br />

with a cohesive team<br />

whose ages spanned<br />

five decades - a great example<br />

of how golf team<br />

events bridge generations,<br />

cultures and abilities.<br />

It was a fine achievement<br />

by the Ryde-Parramatta<br />

golfers who were<br />

managed superbly by<br />

club stalwart Gerry Bush.<br />

A major factor in the<br />

Pennant win was the<br />

club’s tremendous depth<br />

of talent with the squad<br />

bolstered by Alan Middleton<br />

- who played in the<br />

final two matches - and<br />

other team members Jan<br />

Bush, Gerry Bush, Robin<br />

Hassall, Gary Hassall, Michelle<br />

Gay, Yun Lei, Liam<br />

Moylan, Andrew Jones,<br />

Colette Blacklock, Michael<br />

Dane and Angela<br />

Dane.<br />

Number four combination<br />

of Nicole and Paul<br />

Doig showed their prowess<br />

on the course and<br />

were the only pair to go<br />

through the whole series<br />

undefeated.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Pennant win has<br />

particular significance this<br />

year as Ryde Parramatta<br />

Golf Club is currently renewing<br />

their commitment<br />

to inclusiveness; and expanding<br />

opportunities for<br />

women golfers. Club<br />

Captain Martin Ryland-<br />

Adair described winning<br />

the Pennant as a “huge<br />

fillip for our Golf Club.”<br />

“What a proud moment<br />

as Club Captain to watch<br />

our team compete with<br />

such fine spirit and camaraderie<br />

in the final,” said<br />

Ryland-Adair.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y are a great credit<br />

to the club and if all members<br />

follow their example<br />

we can look forward to<br />

a rosy future at Ryde-<br />

Parramatta Golf Club,” he<br />

added.<br />

<strong>The</strong> next 12 months<br />

will be an exciting period<br />

for Ryde Parramatta<br />

Golf Club with strategic<br />

upgrades to make<br />

the course more player<br />

friendly and enhancements<br />

to the bistro and<br />

club house.<br />

<strong>The</strong> club is actively<br />

seeking to increase<br />

women’s membership including<br />

their participation<br />

in the Saturday Medley<br />

competitions.<br />

Tigers Score & Roar!<br />

Balmain Juniors<br />

show their<br />

big brothers<br />

how it’s done!<br />

By the one-eyed Tiger<br />

Balmain Tigers<br />

Juniors have<br />

roared into the finals<br />

with resounding<br />

wins on Saturday<br />

at Leichhardt<br />

Oval HQ showing<br />

their big brothers<br />

how it’s done!<br />

Balmain Tigers<br />

U18s secured a finals<br />

berth in the S G<br />

Ball Junior Cup after<br />

blitzing North Sydney<br />

cuddly Teddies<br />

36-6.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y ran in eight<br />

tries to register an<br />

emphatic victory to<br />

move into fifth spot<br />

on the table with one<br />

game to go.<br />

Classy fullback<br />

Zane Camroux, son<br />

of Balmain Tigers<br />

firsts great half back<br />

Peter Camroux,<br />

raced in for two tries<br />

as did dashing winger<br />

Sam Kharwin who<br />

shoed more toe than<br />

a roman sandal.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y were supported<br />

by tries to<br />

five eighth Hayden<br />

Essery, centre Josh<br />

Rizk, prop Blake<br />

Layton and lock Daniel<br />

Sykes supported<br />

by an enthusiastic<br />

pack as the Tigers<br />

flexed their muscles.<br />

Equally good were<br />

Tries were scored<br />

by fullback Alex Mitiadous,<br />

winger Elijah<br />

Sarkis and gun<br />

Tumeth with Alex<br />

Mitiadous shooting<br />

three over the little<br />

black dot.<br />

Meanwhile out at<br />

Cameltown the big<br />

boys were hosting a<br />

canine show for the<br />

Hush puppies who<br />

were feeling low and<br />

dejected and unloved<br />

and scoreless.<br />

<strong>The</strong> big hearted Tigers<br />

felt responsible<br />

for poaching their<br />

favourite starmaker<br />

Josh Reynolds and<br />

returned the favour,<br />

for just once.<br />

Next time there will<br />

be no prisoners taken.<br />

And Saturday gave<br />

a reprieve for those<br />

Tiger fans who had<br />

missed getting set<br />

with the Ma-in-Law’s<br />

Funeral Fund on the<br />

Tigers Grand Final<br />

glory win while odds<br />

are reasonable before<br />

they rocket to<br />

odds on favouritism.<br />

This Friday the Tigers<br />

venture to the<br />

foot of the mountains<br />

for a father and<br />

son picnic get together.<br />

See ya there.<br />
