Lucky to survive A man was flown to Christchurch Hospital in a serious condition after his car hit a power pole on Wilsons Road at Wakanui in the early hours of yesterday morning. Ashburton fire chief Alan Burgess said firefighters had to cut the man free after they found the vehicle lying driver’s side down beside a ditch. The power pole had snapped in half but the heavy power lines remained intact, hanging, but off the ground. Burgess said firefighters were expecting the worst, given the damage, but found the driver responsive, but trapped. By the time they freed him, the rescue helicopter had arrived; it had to land several hundred metres away at an intersection because of the power lines and the driver, a middle-aged man, was
assessed, treated and transported to Christchurch. Burgess said firefighters had arrived about 1am and saw the lines were free of the crash scene. “We assessed it was safe to work where we were working.” He said the driver had been talking to them during the rescue. “He was very lucky.” St John confirmed the man was in a serious condition after the accident, which was on a stretch of Wilsons Road between Wakanui School Road and Bonningtons Road. Police said the scene was clear by 3am. EA Networks operations manager Myles Connew said power was cut so emergency services could work in safety. Supply was cut to the wider area initially, then to only a smaller surrounding
area as a power crew replaced the pole. The crew, with two trucks and a digger, waited while emergency services worked then stepped in quickly to restore electrical systems to normal within a couple of hours. He said lines in the area were robust because of the heavy electrical load they carried and had been hanging between other poles while the damaged one was down. Power supply was normal by 6am yesterday. Firefighters had earlier in the night been celebrating the 25-year gold star presented to one of their own at a long service event. The Methven unit had been covering Ashburton while the event took place. They responded to a medical event at the Hinds Rugby Club about 10pm.

Police station sign finds new home By Jaime Pitt-MacKay Jaime.p@theguardian.co.nz

■■ SCOUTING
Long service to scouts recognised A number of prestigious awards have been presented to long serving members of the Mid Canterbury scouting community for their service to the organisation. Philip Crozier and Barry Marett were presented with the silver tiki award, while Paul Jessep was presented with the medal of merit. Jessep has been the chairperson of the Methven committee since 2007, and the chair of the Mania-o-Roto zone chairperson since 2010. A cub, scout and chief scout in
his youth, Jessep wanted to help as a parent, but was unable to commit on a weekly basis and therefore joined the committee, carrying on long after his children had moved on from scouting. Crozier was recognised for his long service to the scouts which began in 1986 as a group leader with the Chertsey scout group. A long service with scouts followed, supporting many camps along the way with time and food donations, along with creating an American style summer camp, open to all youth from
the area. Crozier has been in charge of many fundraisers, and has held many leadership roles through scouts as district commissioner and assistant zone leader. Marett came in to the scouting world one year after Crozier, joining the Allenton Scout Group as an assistant cub leader. He was the chairman of the building committee in charge of the new den at the Mania-o-Roto park, and was instrumental in its construction, and can now often be seen down as the park most days as a park warden.
A regular sight on the side of the Ashburton Police Station, the station’s lightbox sign, has found a new home near the capital. The sign is now located at the entrance to the New Zealand Police Museum in Porirua, and has been restored to its former glory. “The Ashburton Police Station lightbox sign had graced the front of the building since the early 1970s,” museum director Rowan Carroll said. “Late last year as part of the national signage project the sign was removed and transported to the New Zealand Police Museum. “After so long out in the elements it was very rusted and the plastic panels were all kinds of shades of blue, because over the years many had been damaged and replaced. “It was given a complete refurbishment of the frame, and the panels replaced so they are now all a uniform colour.” The old incandescent light bulbs have been replaced with LED lights, and the sign now has a sensor that means it will light up at night.

■■ AGRI-KIDS
Agri-Kids heading to national finals By Sue Newman
sue.n@theguardian.co.nz
Three Ashburton Intermedate School students will have big shoes to fill when they head to Napier on Wednesday for this year’s Agri-Kids national final. Hamish, Paton, Charlie Scammell and Isla Connelly-Whyte will be representing the Aorangi region at this year’s FMG Young Farmer Contest TeenAg AgriKids finals and will be joined by a second Mid Canterbury team from Mt Somers Springburn School James Clark, Ruby Giera and Lachlan Rooney. For the intermediate students the event comes with a little extra pressure – their school took the national title last year and for one student there’s an even bigger load to carry, Isla’s brother Tim was part of that winning team. The Year 8 students have been putting in extra hours in the lead-up to the nationals; they’re leaving nothing to chance. They been working with a range of local businesses to ensure they’re up to the mark with their knowledge of every category they’ll be tested on during the final event. Heading into the finals they reckon they can identify various fertilisers and oils, name a selection of cuts of
meat and identify stockbreeds with the best. “We’ve put in plenty of work and we’ll handle it,” Hamish said. And they’ve had the benefit of a little mentoring from last year’s team members who are ensuring Team 2019 goes into the finals well prepared. The students have also been well supported by the community with clothing provided by Carrfields, Quigleys, Ryal Bush and Rural Transport as well as businesses that have come on board to help students learn about various aspects of rural industries. About $1500 has been given in sponsorship with the students also raising money through sausage sizzles. The team heads to Napier on Wednesday along with their parents and grandparents, a support crew they say that will number at least 19. Principal Brent Gray will also be there to lend support. The event starts with a street parade on Thursday before the serious business of competing for a national title begins. Right - Ready to fly the Ashburton Intermediate flag at this year’s Agri-Kids national finals in Napier next week are from left Hamish Paton, Charlie Scammell and Isla Connelly-Whyte.

■■ EA NETWORKS CENTRE
Floating film finds fans Ashburton’s first floating movie was a hit, with around 150 people turning up at the EA Networks Centre on Friday night to swim and watch Moana. Ashburton District Council group manager service delivery Neil McCann said people of all ages relaxed on inflatables while they watched the children’s movie, which has a distinctly ocean theme. There was plenty of time for dips between scenes. He said council was pleased with the turnout and would be reviewing the night, with a view to holding more. Floating movies are popular in aquatic centres around the country but it was a first for Ashburton. They are scheduled for quiet times in pools. Moana was screened on a large screen used as a time clock during competitive swim meets. The sports centre put out a range of inflatables, including rings and giant birds, for people to rest on while they watched. It is part of a drive to maximise use of the centre, which includes an indoor stadium and courts used for a range of games including netball, basketball, table tennis, volleyball, badminton and more.

MetService meteorologist Andrew James said Kiwis would notice that the nights were not as cold as last week, when Mid Cantabrians started the day with good frosts. A northeast flow will develop in the coming days, with warmer air from the subtropics leading to higher temperatures overnight – low teens for the North Island and high single digits for most of the South Island. A frontal system crosses the country from Wednesday, bringing a brief spell of wet weather for many areas.

In brief
Students rock glamour night New-age glamour combined with ancient Olympus on Friday for the annual Ashburton College Ball. Several hundred Year 12 and 13 students and their invited partners danced the night away at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre, then sped off to their after-ball function to continue the fun. Principal Ross Preece was among the senior college staff to attend the event and part of the welcome party, as ball-goers arrived and entered a spectacularly-decorated theatre. “It went really well. It was a fantastic night, as it always is. The kids all looked amazing and they behaved themselves well.” He said the photos booths were popular, as students recorded the night for their social media. “And this group was pretty dancy, everyone was up on the dance floor most of the time.” Students were breath-tested as they arrived, with no-one failing. Preece said he heard the odd rumble of big engines as the ball-goers arrived, their chariots varied from vintage Morris Minors to fire engines and the latest model luxury cars. Year 13 students Carl Cayanan and Zoe Diedricks were king and queen of the ball, while Year 12 students Hamish Kerr and Pop-

Film Studios (AFS) have been working on pre-production on the Lord of the Rings (LOTR) for more than a year now, preparing and building studio locations. American crews were already in Auckland. The industry insider, who spoke to the Herald on Sunday on condition of anonymity, said they had signed a confidentiality agreement with the New Zealand
Government and Amazon - along with everyone else involved in the Auckland production. “Yep, it’s already happening. It’s basically setting up now, settling into the places that they’ve leased out,” the insider said. “They’re not setting up production, they’re setting up the places that they’ve leased. “I’m just not sure what the extent is to, whether they’re doing
all the filming. But I can assure you, it is happening in Auckland. “And all I can tell you is that it’s huge. You can more or less say they’re here.” The insider said production staff for LOTR had “taken over” KFS and AFS, and an official announcement may occur next week, with leases on buildings set to take effect in July. - NZME

■■SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAMME
Lions donate to programme By Jaime Pitt-MacKay Jaime.p@theguardian.co.nz
A sizeable donation is set to help out a charity out through its busiest time of the year and get a suicide prevention programme off the ground. The Mayfield and District Lions donated $5000 to the Ashburton branch of St Vincent de Paul and $21,000 to the Safer Ashburton suicide prevention programme on Friday. The funds were raised through the Lions annual golf tournament, and president Robert Schikker said it was great to be able to put the funds back in to the community. “Most of us have had kids and it is time to give back in to the community,” he said. “We chose St Vincents because unfortunately Arnold Rushton had passed away recently and he had an involvement with them and the Mayfield and District Lions for a long time.” Schikker said the decision to make the larger payment to Safer Ashburton came after being told of their plans to get the suicide prevention scheme off the ground, and they thought it would be a good fit with the spotlight being on rural
mental health recently, especially with the impact of Mycoplasma bovis in the district. “It is an incredible donation,” Safer Ashburton general manager Kevin Clifford said. “It is going to make a real difference in the community.” “We want to do more to reduce the impact that suicide has in our community.” Clifford said the organisation is currently advertising for co-ordinator for the programme, which is called ‘lives worth living’. The person will lead an all of the community approach to wellness, alongside facilitating activities that reduce the risk and impact of suicide in the community. Ashburton St Vincent de Paul president Michael Hanham said the donation had come at a busy time for the organisation. “It is going to help us a lot,” he said. “The winter is a tough time for us, we survive on donations and good will. “This is an extra bonus for us, and Arnold Rushton was the lifeblood of our society and had so much to do with the Mayfield area,” Hanham said.

■■PLASTIC BAG BAN
Toxins from plastic are leaching into our food NZME As a ban on single-use plastic bags begins, a researcher has warned how toxins from plastic and other packaging are leaching into our food and drink. Massey University environmental anthropologist Dr Trisia Farrelly, who recently attended an international conference focused on contamination from plastic, was also urging people not to reuse plastic for packing or storing food. A recent report suggested people today were consuming about 2000 tiny pieces of plastic every
week – that’s equal to five grams, or the weight of an Eftpos card – and adds up to 21 grams a month, or just over 250 grams a year. As our understanding of the risk of these microplastics getting into our food became more widespread, so too would our knowledge of certain industrial chemicals to avoid. Farrelly said consumers were already seeking out food and drink containers that were free of Biphenol A, or BPA. “Unfortunately, industry has found loopholes by using alternatives in ‘BPA-free’ bottles by sim-
ply using other bisphenols – such as BPS – which are even more harmful than BPA.” She said people should also be on the lookout for per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, which were synthetic chemicals used in a wide range of industries and consumer products. Most people have been exposed to them – there are around 3000 types – and they do not break down and go away. “What’s most disturbing is that PFAS are used as a moisture barrier in cardboard and paper used in food packaging, such as pizza
boxes. They are also used in nonstick cookware.” Farrelly also singled out non-intentionally added substances, or NIAS – toxicants introduced through recycling process. These included chemicals such as flame retardents, dyes and additives, and are “deeply concerning,” she said. “Every time you recycle plastic it degrades, producing more and more NIAS.” Research had shown that these toxicants could act as endocrine disrupting chemicals, which were hazardous at extremely low dos-
25% OFF
es and had been implicated in a wide range of diseases including cancers, obesity, fertility problems, male impotence and heart disease. Farrelly further called for new industry guidelines around using recycled plastics. “Never use recycled plastic for food packaging or storage unless you undertake a number of stringent steps – an improved sorting process, a super clean recycling process, creating functional barriers between your food and food packaging, and ban toxic chemicals used in food packaging.”

Three die in heatwave AP Europe’s unprecedented heatwave has claimed its first casualties, with at least three people reportedly dying from suspected heatstroke in Italy and Spain. It comes as a record-breaking heatwave swept through the continent, with France recording its hottest ever temperature of nearly 45°C at the weekend. A 17-year-old farm worker in the Spanish town of Andalusia collapsed from heatstroke while harvesting wheat. The teenager complained of feeling dizzy, and had a swim in a nearby pool, before he collapsed into convulsions. He was raced to hospital but later died from suspected heatstroke. Also in Spain, a 93-year-old man collapsed and died in the middle of the street in the city of Valladolid. Police said his cause of death was heatstroke. In Milan, Italy, a 72-year-old homeless man was found dead beside a railway station. The continent’s worst-ever heatwave has prompted health officials to urge res-
idents to stay indoors and hydrated at all times. France recorded its hottest ever temperature of 44.3°C, with schools in Paris dousing students with water. A report by CBS News said nursing homes around France have been equipped with hydration sensors to battle the sweltering heat. The country’s soaring temperatures have broken the previous national record of 44.1°C, during the August 2003 heatwave, according to state weather forecaster Meteo-France. At least four people have also died in Germany in public bathing accidents — these are believed to have been drownings. In Catalonia, firefighters were battling a forest blaze that is believed to have begun when a pile of manure at a chicken farm spontaneously combusted in the extreme heat. Meteo-France’s Etienne Kapikian said it was “very probable” the record would be beaten again. “(The temperature) will continue to climb and, in some places, we could pass 44°C,” he said.
The centre of Carpentras was almost deserted in the middle of the day, with cafe owners contemplating empty terraces which usually would be packed. “We have never seen this,” one exclaimed. France remains haunted by the memory of the devastating heatwave of August 2003 which exposed the shortcomings of emergency services at the height of the summer holidays. That year, nearly 15,000 people reportedly died due to the heat — many of them elderly people at home. “I want to appeal to the sense of responsibility of citizens — there are avoidable deaths in every heatwave,” French Prime Minister, Édouard Philippe said. Many have blamed the sudden weather crisis on climate change, with scientists warning that increased human fossil fuel use could make such heatwaves more frequent in the near future. French Health Minister Agnes Buzyn warned those who were tempted to plunge into cold water, to only do so in designated public bathing areas.

Moon rock samples finally unsealed AP Inside a locked vault at the Johnson Space Centre is a treasure few have seen and fewer have touched. The restricted lab is home to moon rocks collected by Apollo astronauts close to a half-century ago. And for the first time in decades, Nasa is about to open some of the pristine samples and let geologists take a crack at them with 21st-century technology. Most of the samples to be doled out over the next year were collected in 1972 during Apollo 17. The nine US research
teams selected by Nasa will receive varying amounts. What better way to mark the 50th anniversary of humanity’s first footsteps on the moon than by sharing a bit of the lunar loot. With the golden anniversary of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin’s feat fast approaching — their lunar module Eagle landed on July 20, 1969 — the moon is redhot again. Nasa aims to put astronauts on the lunar surface again by 2024. Nasa curator Ryan Zeigler’s job is to preserve what the 12 moonwalkers brought back between 1969 and 1972 — lunar samples totalling 382kg — and ensure sci-
entists get the best possible samples for study. Some of the soil and bits of rock were vacuum-packed on the moon or frozen or stored in helium following splashdown and then left untouched. The lab has two vaults: one for rocks still in straight-fromthe-moon condition and one for samples previously loaned out for study. Zeigler said scientists studying the rocks have determined the ages of the surfaces of Mars and Mercury, and established that Jupiter and the solar system’s other big outer planets likely formed closer to the sun and later migrated outward.

June a busy month for newcomers
J
une began with two walks we organised alongside the river. It may have been the weather, but they weren’t as popular as the Awa Awa walk. It may also be that people like the tougher tramp. What do you think? I then gave a talk at Mount Hutt College for students. The social sciences teachers were running a programme showing the students the difficulties refugees have to face before arriving to New Zealand. Obviously the topic is more relevant than ever, with refugees expected to arrive in our town within a year. The teachers put on a wonderful programme for the students, and asked me to come and talk from my personal experience. While I couldn’t really speak as a refugee I could share some of my experience as a migrant about things like being away from family and friends, dealing with a new culture and language, overcoming past traumas and so on. During one exercise students were asked to select the one item they could bring with them from all of their belongings, and many chose technology (computers, tablets or smartphones), and had to learn that these devices would be a waste of space for refugees, having nowhere to charge them. This wonderful programme inspired students: Two students set up a Givealittle donation page to raise money to help newcomers and raised $100, while a group of nine girls raised a similar sum through a bake sale to create shoeboxes with small items for different aged children that might be fun and useful. Wonderful initiatives! The following day I gave another talk to a very different crowd, at the Rakaia Friendship Club, a wonderfully curious group of seniors. I spoke about the Hakatere Multi Cultural Council, about what we currently know regarding the refugees who will come here, and about my life back in Israel and my journey to New Zealand and Ashburton. Many questions were asked and I hope I managed to give them some insight about the land and culture of Israel. Thank you Dorothy for organising the event and hosting me. We also ran two workshops this month dealing with change. Change is something we all have to face as humans, particularly in the fast-paced world we now live in. It could be moving to a new location, starting a new job, changes in family status, dealing with an illness and many other things. The first workshop was about learning to welcome change personally, identifying the difficulties and fears and addressing them through various
technics. The second workshop was about helping others go through change, identify barriers/resistance to change and how to remove them, shifting mindsets from negative to positive and a range of practical activities equipping participants to help others. Catherine, who ran both workshops, is a dedicated and passionate change management professional with a strong background in change management, project management, portfolio management and business analysis. Her talent is supporting individuals and organisations successfully through a change. Our public speaking course has been going well, with participants moving beyond giving their first short speech about themselves and doing another speech on a chosen topic with emphasis on improved delivery. Thank you Jeff from Ashburton Toastmasters for running the course. We also had two meetings of our board games club this month. One at the regular date (second Sunday of the month) at Community House and another at a local pub. We played Dice Fishing, where you play as fishermen competing to catch the most fish. Each fish has a numerical value that must be equaled to catch it. We also played King of Tokyo, in which you play mutant monsters, gigantic robots, and strange aliens – all of whom are destroying Tokyo and whacking each other in order to become the one and only King of Tokyo. And Splendor, an engine-building and resource management game in which two to four players compete to collect the most prestige points. Players are gem merchants of the Renaissance buying gem mines, transportation, and shops. While Splendor’s origin is French, Dice Fishing originates from Japan and King of Tokyo was designed by Richard Garfield (US) who created “Magic: The Gathering”. Both nights were very enjoyable with different games, and I welcome everyone to join us for our next session – all welcome. And finally thank you to the Advance Ashburton Community Foundation and the Tindall Foundation for their funding support for our upcoming year!

Driver licensing courses going well
T
he third course for the learners’ licence is drawing to a close. We’ve had a wonderful time learning the road code and making new friends, which is always a pleasure to see. We have had some fantastic presentations from both the police and a driving instructor, so thank you to Sgt Steven Burgerhout, Ashburton Police and Allan Baird, driver training for your very informative presentations. Already, we have had one learner’s licence achieved and are looking forward to the rest of the participants doing the same. We have been very lucky to have a donation from Welcoming Communities – Ashburton District which we put towards purchasing some official tests for everyone to practice on. It certainly helps to be familiar with the look of the test before actually sitting the test. The Ashburton Learning Centre have once again done a wonderful job of teaching us the road code, and thanks to the lovely ladies who look after the children while their mothers are in class. Also, thanks to the volunteer who helps with transport into class each week. Our restricted licence students are still going really well, with a few more nearly ready for their test. A special thanks to the mentors for doing such a wonderful job. We can’t do it without your help. If you would like to become a driving mentor or child minder please get in touch as we are always happy to take on new volunteers and it’s so rewarding seeing the difference you can make to someone’s life. Here is a question about a confusing intersection in town (see photo) between Chalmers Avenue and South Street. Which car gets the right of way first? Answer: The car turning right from Chalmers (circled in green), as the yellow and blue ones have a give way signs and the red one has a stop sign. Fur-
thermore, if the driver of the car circled in red want to go straight he needs to wait at the stop sign for everyone else and then turn left and immediately right. If he makes the mistake of continuing directly straight, he would go into the opposite lane!

■■ FOOTNOTE NEW ZEALAND DANCE
The Clearing in Ashburton Footnote New Zealand Dance is staging the world premiere of its highly-anticipated work The Clearing in Ashburton on July 20. As New Zealand’s longest running contemporary dance company, Footnote has been at the forefront of its field for more than 30 years. The company’s five full-time dancers are highly experienced performers at the top of their game, yet are set to be challenged and inspired by the full-length work. The Clearing will open in Ashburton, before the company will head to Queenstown, Invercargill, Oamaru and Christchurch, preceding
a second set of tour dates to be announced soon. Emerging from the creative brilliance of choreographer Ross McCormack, The Clearing takes inspiration from the impact of society’s carved-out spaces, both natural and designed. It is set within an other-worldly terrain, where a faint echo of reality exists. Billed as alluring and perplexing, The Clearing will reverberate with a mysterious energy that stirs its occupants to test themselves against the environment, and against each other.

OUR VIEW
Leading the way on water W
ater, water, everywhere and not a drop to drink. Well, people in the district don’t drink the water from the Ashburton River but we do care about it. The river has long been overallocated for irrigation, so very low at times, but that is all about to change – how quickly will depend quite a few parties. Environment Canterbury is coming to town later this month to tell us how it intends to implement its Ashburton River Management Plan, which sets minimum flows for the river. Farmers are worried because their irrigation consents will be reviewed as part of that pro-
cess. All the conditions won’t be reviewed, just the relevant ones about when they can abstract. These are farmers who need water at critical times to make their crops and grass grow. They have spent a lot of money on the latest spray irrigators to make that water go as far as possible and they will be hoping now that the investment will still
be worth it. The district needs them to keep being successful as what they do as the primary industries are what makes us tick. I’m donning my rose-tinted glasses when I think about how they could get the water they need as I have often heard the experts say we have enough water, it’s just a problem getting it to the right place at the right time. The Ashburton River is one of four major waterways in the district, the Rangitata River, the Rakaia River and the RDR (Rangitata Diversion Race). The company that manages the RDR is planning to build a big storage pond that will increase reliability
of water for the schemes that use it. The RDR itself is a major feat of engineering that could have a big role in getting water to where it is needed, to benefit not only our rural communities, the district and the country, but other waterways. Over the past decade irrigators whose water comes from the irrigation schemes that own the RDR have been converting to spray and other technology (think centre pivots and soil moisture meters) that allow them to use their water takes much more efficiently. There may be water savings somewhere that could be trans-
ferred to those farmers on the Ashburton River. How that would happen given all the parties involved in the consenting, taking and using of water is beyond my capabilities, but there are some very smart people in the water industry. It would need goodwill and probably money. There are a lot of people passionate about the Ashburton River and members of the Ashburton Water Zone Committee are hoping they will turn out to the meetings in Ashburton and Methven on July 16. Whether you live in the town or country, as many of us as possible should be there: we are leaders in this field.

I
am sure many Ashburton Guardian readers will be aware of my announcement last week that I will be retiring from politics at the next election. This has been an incredibly difficult decision because I have loved being the Selwyn MP and a part of the National Party caucus since 2008. It has been the greatest privilege of my life and I have been humbled by your support during the past four general elections and at all times in between. While I am not intending to stand again at next year’s general election, I want to assure you that until then I will continue to work hard as your MP and advocate for the people of Selwyn in Parliament. I couldn’t have done what I’ve done in politics without the support you have given me and this is something I am very grateful for. I intend to remain an active member of the party nationally
and in Selwyn because I believe in the party’s values and vision. As a consequence of my decision not to stand again in next year’s general election, I decided it was only fair to the party that I should stand down from my roles as Finance spokesperson and Shadow Attorney General. I’ve chosen to make my announcement now as I felt that it was important new people had time to establish themselves in those roles as we head towards 2020. As well as my responsibility to the people here in my electorate of Selwyn, I have been very fortunate to have held a variety
of portfolios as a Minister in the National Government. I am very proud of my work as Communications Minister progressing the rollout of improved broadband infrastructure to our rural towns and our cities. I am also heartened to see the current government continuing with programmes I established as Justice Minister which are starting to help break the cycle of family violence in vulnerable families. My decision is a reflection of the fact that I’ve long believed this job is too important to do unless you know you can give it all of the passion and energy it deserves. That has always been my approach and after nearly 12 years I feel I’ve given this role all I’ve got and it is now time to bring in someone with fresh energy and ideas. While I know some people are very scathing of politicians, the reality is that it being an MP
comes with a huge amount of responsibility and great public scrutiny. The job involves long hours and a lot of travel and these things do have an impact on your family. I would like to acknowledge the incredible support of my husband Don and our children, Tom and Lucy, as without their backing and encouragement I would not have been able to do this job. I have loved representing this region which has been my home for many years and I’ll be looking to provide all the support I can to whomever is fortunate enough to take over this role.

Fairytale town with $1.50 annual rent N
ew Zealand rental prices are a shocker. Wellington and Auckland have set up a permanent footholds in the top 20 most expensive places to live, according to Deutsche Bank’s annual report on rental prices. It’s enough to make you want to relocate, and we might have the perfect place. The curious city of Fuggerei is the town that time forgot, and rental prices have remained frozen at one Rheinisher Gulden (or 0.88 euro/$1.50) a year since 1521. The medieval enclave is located in Southern Germany. A city-within-a-city, the 142 apartments provide housing for 150 residents, and an entirely different administrative arrangement to the city of Augsburg, which surrounds it. The kitsch terraced houses, wisteria lined walls and shuttered windows are a throwback to a simpler, cheaper time. Also unchanged is the rental price. The commune was founded by Jakob Fugger “the Rich” in 1521, as alms housing for needy Augsburgers. As a gold merchant in middle-ages Mitteleuropa, Jakob became extremely wealthy. He built the social housing on a 15,000 square-metre plot with his gains right in the middle of Augsburg. His legacy still funds the upkeep of the city and allows the 150 residents to remain there for an extraordinarily cheap annual rent. (Providing they are Catholic, that is.) The curious city is closed off to the public at 10pm each night, when it shuts its five large gates. However the town’s strange circumstances have attracted a

There is a daily guided tour for the fee of 6.80 euros. Or, about seven years’ rent. The town’ website lists a museum in a World War Two bomb shelter among the attractions. The city says that for someone to be accepted as a resident of Fuggerei “ancestry, age and family status are not deciding factors. Alongside the prayer requirements, the residents are asked to perform small services
for the common welfare”. It seems that there isn’t much of a nightlife, though. Visitors and locals caught sneaking back from the clubs of Augsburg or nearby Munich will be charged a fee. “The gates of the Fuggerei are open until 10pm, afterwards residents must pay the night watchman a sum of 50 cents to be admitted, or one euro if it is after midnight,” reads the town rules on admittance. Still, not a bad deal, if you can get it.
Fuggerei residents offset their cheap rent with community work as gardeners or gatekeepers.
s we salute the French for providing the world with the best quality wine, we can now bow down to them for providing a wine lovers’ dream like no other. Your dreams of being surrounded by bottles and bottles, 14,000 to be exact, have just come true with the world’s first ever wine theme park in Bordeaux, France. La Cité du Vin, The City of Wine, is an 80 million Euro complex dedicated to all things wine. Before roller coaster fanatics jump out of their seats, this theme park-meets-museum is not a place of vertical drops but a destination of tastings, wine tours, exhibits and of course, a huge wine bar. The theme park stores 800 varieties of wine, from 70 different countries, which are all available for tasting.
With 20 themed areas, some of the highlights of the park include The Belvedere lookout providing visitors incredible 360-degree views from 35m up, a wine culture library and for those who want a little more thrill, there is a simulated boat ride you can go on showing what it was once like to be a voyaging wine merchant. According to the architects, the twisted metal structured building adjacent to the Garonne River is supposed to portray wine swirling around in a glass, making for a totally immersable wine experience. The park seems to be an adult’s Disneyland, minus the steep entrance costs, where tickets start at just $37 and include a glass of wine. The kids can even embark on your wine adventure with a range of grape juices selected for them. Start packing your bags as this wine shrine is definitely one for the bucket list.

Hampstead power to trophy win By Erin Tasker
erin.t@theguardian.co.nz
A stunning final quarter display saw the Hampstead senior women’s hockey team run out to a big 10-3 win over Geraldine to claim the Mary Smith Trophy on Saturday. It was a result that not many would have picked at the end of a tight first half, least of all the competition-leading Geraldine women. The Mary Smith Trophy is contested annually between the top Mid Canterbury and South Canterbury teams after round one, and while Hampstead are now the only Mid Canterbury team in the Mid/South Canterbury competition, the Geraldine girls are one of four South Canterbury teams and they had only lost one game this season. So Geraldine were the favourites and they played like it in the first half, leading 2-1 in the first quarter before Hampstead started their comeback and eventually drew even at 3-all. From there Hampstead took a 5-3 lead at the end of the third quarter, and were ready for whatever Geraldine had to throw at them in the final quarter. They were determined to defend their lead, but instead, they ended up building on it. Hampstead added a further five goals in the final quarter to
The Hampstead senior women’s hockey team are a happy lot as they show off the Mary Smith Trophy after Saturday’s commanding win over Geraldine. ensure the trophy was theirs, and coach Nicky Foden was over the moon. “I didn’t expect 10, I was honestly happy with five, but the last quarter was just bang, bang, bang,” Foden said.
Hannah Mowat scored four of Hampstead’s goals, to follow up the five she scored in her side’s 9-0 win over Timaru Girls’ High School the week prior, while Sarah Hayman and Sam Dalzell scored two each, and Marika Mel-
lish and Sionelle Williams scored one each. Hampstead hadn’t produced their best work in round one, but at the start of round two Foden said that her side was starting to gel and would be a team to
watch, and over the past couple of weeks they have proven her right. Hampstead now have four wins to their names and are in third spot on the competition leaderboard, just behind Cambridge and Geraldine. Meanwhile in the Mid/South Canterbury senior men’s competition, Mid Canterbury’s sole senior men’s side Wakanui also notched up another win on Saturday. That victory saw them draw level with Northern Hearts at the top of the men’s division one points table, after Hearts were held to a scoreless draw by Cambridge on Saturday. Wakanui’s latest win was a 3-2 win over Temuka in Ashburton, and it was a tense one, with all of the action coming in the second half after the two sides were locked at 0-all at half time. Temuka applied pressure early in the third, but it was Wakanui who struck first with a goal to Andy Moore to see his side in front 1-0 at the end of the third quarter. Temuka evened the ledger early in the final quarter and then went ahead 2-1, leaving Wakanui to come from behind if they wanted to win, which they did, landing two late goals, with the winner coming off the stick of Brad Going.

Australians apply the blowtorch to Black Caps AP
Ross Taylor takes the big walk.
The break for drinks arrived and the groundsmen at Lord’s sprinted into the middle. While Australia fielders and New Zealand batsmen gulped down fluids on the hottest day of the British summer, three orange-shirted men fussed over the pitch – cleaning, brushing, fixing, painting. For all intents and purposes, the groundsmen appeared to be preparing a burial plot, which Australia was only too happy to lower the New Zealanders into yesterday. Australia strangled the life out of the Kiwis to win their Cricket World Cup group match by 86 runs. Top-order batsman Usman Khawaja and wicketkeeper Alex Carey rescued Australia at 92-5 with a century stand, and fast bowler Mitchell Starc polished off the effort with 5-26, tournament-best figures. Four days after routing England by 64 runs on the same pitch, Australia’s bowlers were even better in defending 243 and dismissing New Zealand for 157. “We were fantastic to keep such a good
side to under 160 runs,” Starc said. The left-arm paceman’s second 5-wicket haul of this event gave him a tournament-leading 24, two more than he earned in the 2015 World Cup, with at least two more matches to play. His wickets, however, were the result of pressure applied by his fellow bowlers. Jason Behrendorff removed the openers cheaply, and part-time spinners Steve Smith, Aaron Finch and Glenn Maxwell, and specialist Nathan Lyon helped to tie down the Kiwis, who cracked trying to make runs. New Zealand’s chase was as good as over from the 32nd over, once captain Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor were back in the pavilion for 40 and 30 respectively. Starc was virtually unplayable: Of his 58 deliveries, 45 were dots. Australia, still the only team to have qualified for the semi-finals, is heading to the playoffs ruthlessly improving in every appearance. “We’ve always spoken about peaking towards the back end of the tournament,” Starc said. “We’re still searching for that perfect
performance. We’re not quite there yet. We’re showing glimpses. That’s exciting.” The New Zealanders would have cemented their semi-finals position with a win, but the day-nighter reflected their performance: Started brightly only to end up being completely shaded. Depending on results over the next three days involving England and Bangladesh, New Zealand could go into its last group match on Wednesday against England as desperate for a win as the tournament host. The match had started so well for New Zealand’s bowlers. Australia couldn’t get a run in the first two overs for the first time in seven years. Steve Smith was booed in, made 5, and was out swatting a vicious pull at Martin Guptill at leg gully. Even Lord’s members, allowed to take off their blazers in the heat, stood and applauded the incredible catch. Up stepped Khawaja with 88 and Carey with 71 in a match-winning fightback worth 107 for the sixth wicket. Inexplicably, the Black Caps didn’t bring Trent Boult back till the bird had flown.

Crusaders march into final AP Defending champions the Crusaders will host Argentina’s Jaguares in next weekend’s Super Rugby final after beating the Hurricanes 30-26 Saturday to continue their quest for a 10th title and their third in consecutive years. Winger Sevu Reece scored two tries – his 14th and 15th of the season – and flyhalf Richie Mo’unga scored a try and kicked six goals for 20 points to propel the Crusaders into the final for the 14th time. Earlier, the Jaguares extended a history-making season with a 39-7 win over the ACT Brumbies in Buenos Aires to reach the final for the first time in their fourth year in the tournament. The Crusaders were dominant early in the first half, taking a 13-0 lead as the Hurricanes squandered possession with thoughtless kicking. But when the Hurricanes held onto the ball and attacked the defensive line the match turned into a thrilling exhibition of tit-for-tat scoring. Centte Ngani Laumape scored two tries as the Hurricanes cut the Crusaders’ lead to 13-7 at halftime. They matched the Crusaders try for try through the second half but never held the lead, closing within one point without bridging the gap. The match ended in controversy when the Australian referee called a knock-on when the Hurricanes were hot on attack. The ball had been knocked on by the Crusaders and the call took away the Hurricanes’ last scoring chance. “It’s always tough defending these guys,” Crusaders captain Sam Whitelock said. “We did a great job until 39 minutes in (when the Hurricanes scored their first try). “The Hurricanes scored one and then all of a sudden the floodgates opened. “We’re really happy, though. “The boys stuck together and

Fullback David Havili won the ball in the air and centre Ryan Crotty put in a cross kick for Reece who was unguarded on the right wing. He managed to pick up the ball at full pace and score wide out. A conversion and two penalties by Mo’unga gave the Crusaders a 13-0 lead. When the Hurricanes finally attacked with ball in hand they
created a try to Laumape immediately before halftime which kept them in the match. The Hurricanes scored through winger Ben Lam immediately after the re-start but flyhalf Beauden Barrett missed a conversion which would have given his team their first lead. Barrett was guilty of kicking the ball away early but turned the game around for the Hurricanes when he ran at the defence in the second half. The Crusaders quickly an-
swered Lam’s try with a try to Mo’unga, opening an eight-point lead. Laumape’s second try cut the lead again to a single point. Reece’s second try, created by superb passing among the Cruaders’ back row of Kieran Read, Matt Todd and Jordan Taufua, again made the lead eight points. Hurricanes scrum half TJ Perenara, in a record 127th appearance for the franchise, reached out to score a try in the 61st minute which kept hearts racing in-

side the final quarter. The Hurricanes attacked frequently in the last few minutes without managing the vital breakthrough. “That’s been the theme for us all week, just being relentless and never giving up,” Hurricanes captain Dane Coles said. “I thought we absorbed a lot of that pressure in the first half and were pretty happy with 13-7 at halftime. We started pretty well in the second half but some of those tries they got were pretty easy.”

Warriors crash in golden point NZME Mark this down as one of the worst Warriors losses of the season. That’s a big call – given some of the defeats we have witnessed – but this one will be hard to take. Very hard. A James Maloney field goal condemned the Warriors to a 19-18 loss in golden point, after the home side had led 16-12 with less than four minutes to play. It’s the sort of result that can savage a campaign, and send things into a bit of a tailspin. The Warriors were looking for their first win at Mt Smart in three months, but instead continue an awful streak. Penrith had two periods of being re-
duced to 12 men – and missed more than 50 tackles – but found a way to stay in the game. The Warriors were guilty of not putting the foot on the throat, when ahead 16-6 early in the second half, with the Panthers a man down, and paid the ultimate price. It was a scrappy game, full of mistakes, exactly what you might except from two teams that have struggled this season. The Warriors were far from polished, with some clunky attack, but they at least showed some desire. There was a willingness to put their bodies where it hurts, and for the most part worked hard defensively. But Penrith always looked more likely in the additional period, and Maloney coolly nailed his second attempt.

Rakaia lose, remain on top By Erin Tasker
erin.t@theguardian.co.nz
Rakaia’s first loss and Southern’s first win on Saturday have set up an intriguing final round in the Mid Canterbury Rugby Watters Cup competition. Had Rakaia beaten Methven on Saturday, they’d have finished the round robin on top and booked their spot in the July 20 final at the Ashburton A&P Showgrounds, automatically progressing to the big dance and leaving the teams ranked two and three to fight it out for the other spot. And while Rakaia started like a team on a mission to do just that, Methven had other ideas and came storming back in the second half to claim the win 26-25. In a true match of country rugby, there was no love lost between the two sides and when Rakaia went into the break up 20-5, most would have backed them to do enough to hold on for the win. But Methven again pulled a rabbit out of the hat. They turned to a more methodical style of rugby off the back of a halftime dressing down from coach Jason Kjestrup, and used their strong ball-runners well to make inroads on the Rakaia defensive line, eventually breaking their way through. From 5-20 down at the break, they got back to the 19-25 and when Matthew Liszt crossed over with around 10 minutes to play and Tyler Blackburn sent a tricky conversion through the middle of the posts, Methven had themselves in front. Methven fought off a couple of scares in the final minutes, including a 30 metre penalty attempt from Seta Koroitamana which fell well short of the mark, but stood up in defence and held on for the win. Second-five Faaitu Tuamoheloa was massive for the Methven side, filling in the shoes of Nete Caucau with distinction while the entire Methven forward pack grafted well. Rakaia will have some concerns through the injury of the experienced Andrew Letham who was helped from the field halfway through the second half.

His influence on the paddock in the dying stages with the match on the line was sorely missed. Methven coach Jason Kjestrup said his side spent the first half on their heels, but after a few stern words at the break things started changing. Methven captain Matt Groom led the way, with the prop scoring his 14th try of the season to kickstart his side’s comeback and help them claim the Pat McGirr Trophy – contested between Rakaia and Methven – for the first time. It will join Mid Canterbury Rugby’s equivalent of the Ranfurly Shield, the Max Gilbert Trophy, in Methven’s trophy cabinet, and in
Brenton Connell scores the opening try of the game.
a few weeks Kjestrup hopes they will add the Watters Cup to that collection. “The boys are starting to get into a bit of a habit and starting to realise they have to play in the first half,” Kjestrup said. It was Methven’s second comefrom-behind victory in the Watters Cup, with the other also being a one-point win over the team that was Mid Canterbury’s best performing side in the combined competition, Southern. “Some of the boys were saying we just like to keep it entertaining,” Kjestrup siad. But he hoped they’d make sure of it a bit earlier against Hamp-

stead in the last round, to top the standings and take that automatic spot in the final. Rakaia coach Terry Murray obviously wasn’t as happy, but said Saturday’s loss was his side’s own doing. “We put ourselves under a lot of pressure to be honest, and we didn’t grab our opportunities and we didn’t take control of our own destiny. “We gave away too many stupid penalties and gave them territory and they were able to put us under pressure,” Murray said. With it being Rakaia’s first loss, they’d done enough to go through to the semi-finals at least, but they’d have to just wait and see who ended up where, with the bye in the last round. Rakaia’s fate is really in Methven’s hands. If Methven beat Hampstead this weekend, Methven will finish on top, but if Hampstead are to break their 10-year Watters Cup game winning drought in what will be their final outing of 2019, Rakaia will finish on top of the table. Whichever team of the two finished in second spot, would then play the winner of the final round match between Southern and Celtic in the semi-final, with that final round match effectively becoming a quarter-final. Last year Celtic and Southern were the two sides fighting it out in the Watters Cup final, but this year only one of them will get a chance to even get back there.
Southern coach Andrew Carr was a much happier man on Saturday, as his side bounced back from surprise losses to Methven and Rakaia to beat Hampstead convincingly 57-19 and keep their season alive. There was still work to do heading into that Celtic clash though, Carr said. “It wasn’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but at least it’s a step forward, because we’d taken a couple of steps backwards,” Carr said. Doubles to Josh McAtamney, Will Mackenzie and James Hastings helped Southern to that win over Hampstead, with their side scoring nine tries all up, compared to Hamptead’s three, which were scored by Ma’ukie Otukolo, Taualai Tofilau and captain Lofi Lapa. Southern were dominant from the get-go, getting out to an early 14-0 lead and by half-time having put 40 points on the board. And although his side did improve in the second half, that 4012 scoreline at half time was always going to be extremely tough to overcome, Hampstead coach Shaun Bovey said. “We played good rugby, but when you’re 40 points behind at half time it’s a long way back,” Bovey said. He said his players were disappointed, and while he felt they lacked urgency on defence it was more a case of Southern just being too good, rather then Hampstead playing poorly.

A copybook effort aboard local runner Poker Face paved the way for talented rider Alysha Collett to make her long-awaited reappearance in the winner’s enclosure following an injury-enforced break from the jockey ranks. Collet sustained a serious injury to her L1 Lumbar vertebra, along with a fractured right heel when she fell from her mount at Kranji on October 14. Following successful spinal surgery, she spent the next six months recuperating in New Zealand before being cleared to return to race riding earlier this month. A somewhat frustrating run of twenty-six rides without a winner came to an end in the last race of the day at Ruakaka on Saturday as she punched home the Chris Gibbs and Michelle Bradley-trained Poker Face in the rating 82, 2100m contest. “It just feels so good to get the monkey off my back,” Collett said. “It hasn’t actually been that long but it seems like an eternity since I had my last winner given what has gone on. “I’ve been really thankful for the rides I have been getting since I started back and I knew it was just a matter of time until I got the win but I wanted it that much, it did start to get a little frustrating.” Collett was confident that she had her best chance of a win with Poker Face after the fiveyear-old Jimmy Choux gelding
With just one win required to match his best tally for a season and just five wins behind National Jockey’s Premiership leader Lisa Allpress, you could be forgiven for thinking Johnathan Parkes was plotting a huge month in July. On the contrary, the popular Central Districts horseman is happy to just go with the flow and take a what will be will be attitude into the final weeks of the 2018/19 racing season. A winning treble at Hastings on the weekend saw Parkes notch his 117th victory for the season (he rode 118 winners in 2013/14), with a strike rate of 4.97, second only to Opie Bosson (4.48) in the top 40 riders on the premiership ladder. Despite that success Parkes admits he isn’t one to chase records or the like. “I’m really happy with how my season has gone but I’m not chasing the premiership or anything like that,” he said. “I’m not a natural lightweight so over the last couple of winters I’ve actually ridden a little heavier in the winter so I can look after myself. “I generally ride at around 54.5kg in the summer but in the winter now I’m walking around 56kgs. It is really tough to be wasting and the like in the winter so it’s better for me to ride at a weight I’m comfortable with. “I’ll be back to the lower weight once the spring rolls around but the extra weight limits what I can ride at this time of the year so things like chasing premierships etc. are not realistic, so I just don’t worry about it.” Given he is riding so well it seems odds on that he will break his personal best tally of wins for a season, a feat that Parkes will be pleased to achieve. “I’ve had a really good season and I’ve managed to get on some very nice horses,” he said. “I’ve had terrific support from trainers. I’m very thankful for that support as without it you just don’t get the opportunities you need to be successful.”
Alysha Collett gets back in the winner’s circle in style with Poker Face on Saturday. had flown home for a fifth over a mile at Ruakaka a fortnight earlier. “He went a great race last time and both Chris and Michelle thought the step up to 2100m on Saturday would be perfect for him,” she said. “We had a good draw which meant I could get him into a nice position on the fence and when
he got the gap on the fence, he really charged home. “It was such a great feeling to finally get that win on the board.” Collett has a busy month coming up as she waits for her visa to come through so she can make her return to riding back in Singapore. “I’m going to ride here for another week or so then I’m having
a ten-day holiday after that,” she said. “When I get back, I will start riding here again but hopefully by then my visa for Singapore will have come through. “Without the visa it puts your plans up in the air a little, but if I can get that all sorted out before the start of the new New Zealand season that would really be a big help.”

Parker wins By Dylan Cleaver Joseph Parker’s championship revival continued yesterday with a convincing yet curious victory over Alex Leapai. Referee Ricky Gonzalez stopped the fight in the 10th round much to Leapai’s bemusement and even the Parker camp looked nonplussed by the decision. Did Parker do enough to convince the world of his championship calibre credentials? The jury is out on that. Sporting a goatee beard and the trimmest physique of his professional career, Parker, 27, looked a class above his fellow Samoan, even if Leapai’s haymakers posed an intermittent threat. It improves the South Auckland heavyweight’s record to 26-2, with 20 knock outs. He remains undefeated against anybody outside the UK. If Parker was looking to make a statement in his Matchroom debut, in a fight that was comain event to Demetrius Andrade’s defence of his WBO middleweight belt against Maciej Sulecki, it was mission kind of accomplished. Sure, the early knockout that looked inevitable never materialised but owed more to the cement-like quality of Leapai’s head than a lack of shots from Parker. It didn’t look as if the fight would go beyond the first as Parker poured it on. Leapai weathered that but it

was obvious his hopes rested somewhere between slim and no. Leapai took a breather in the second and third rounds for apparent low blows – Gonzalez never appeared overly concerned – but he couldn’t stop the barrage of upper cuts and right hands he was wearing. Parker’s energy flattened out slightly by the sixth round although he never looked anything other than in complete control. It was his first fight in the US since his TKO of Keith Thompson in 2014, 19 prizefights ago. In front of a large and boisterous Rhode Island crowd unafraid of voicing “you suck” hot takes on the fighters, Parker kept them interested if not 100 per cent invested in his performance. Parker went into the fight at 109kg, with trainer Kevin Barry saying it was the most finely tuned he had seen his charge. He had looked sharp in training all week and, to the surprise of nobody who has had anything to do with Parker, relaxed on the day of the fight. Leapai came into the fight at short notice, having replaced American Eric Molina who proved too hard to tie down to a workable contract. Leapai had been in camp with trainer Noel Thornberry, but not working at the intensity needed to face a fighter of Parker’s class. The fight is on the books, but in all reality there was little to gain for Parker aside from another notch on his belt.

Simon Shuker’s Code Cracker
Your Stars ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): To flow with your own energy will be a challenge. It’s not about trying to will yourself to be more or less active, rather it’s about listening to the needs of your body, mind and soul. TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): You won’t know what the real deal is until you’re in it in person. Today, the hypotheticals are even less grounded than usual. Wherever possible, meet up in real life. GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You’ll get to the goal faster when you include another person in the process. The down side, you’ll either have to pay this person up front or on the back end, so it’s not the most cost-effective way. CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You don’t have to be perfect to be loved, liked or included. You don’t have to be perfect to be persuasive, effective or accomplished. You don’t have to be perfect, period. LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Don’t overthink. Plow through. Throwing money at a problem isn’t usually the best or most lasting solution; however, in today’s case, it will fix things quickly so you can move on. VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): You’ve used your talents to do good work. Now you’ll use them for the sole purpose of making someone else look good. They need you, and you need to help. So, it works out. LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): You don’t need yes-people around you to make you feel in charge. While it’s nice to get pumped up with compliments before you set out to conquer the world, it’s better when the boost comes from inside yourself. SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): You are connected to someone in a mysterious way. This person shows up in your life unexpectedly, at the strangest times, and changes the way you think about what’s going on. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Simple stories are easier to understand, but they also leave a lot out – maybe the best stuff. To go directly from here to there is logical and unmemorable. There’s pleasure and usefulness in meandering. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): If you could do the thing in half the time, it would be better. No catch. There’s nothing to miss in the half you’re about to cut out. Bottom line: This task is really taking too long; find another way. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): When people aren’t telling the whole story, there’s a reason. If you ask directly, you’re unlikely to get the truth. Press gently and observe, or wait for unguarded moments. This is worth knowing. PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Peer pressure is powerful and omnipresent. Wherever people are, there’s a pressure to conform. Spend as little time as possible with people who undervalue you.

The Barbarians had their chances but couldn’t nail it home in their match against the Woolston Rams on Saturday.
■■ RUGBY LEAGUE
Barbarians ‘own worst enemy’ By Erin Tasker
erin.t@theguardian.co.nz
Disappointed Ashburton Barbarians coach Steve Gamble reckons his players have no one to blame for their latest loss, other than themselves. The Barbarians went down 2216 to the Woolston Rams in their latest Canterbury Rugby League division one match in Ashburton on Saturday, letting the game get away late after having the visiting side on the ropes.
“For me it was a game where Woolston didn’t beat us, we definitely lost the game ourselves,” Gamble said. After a disappointing couple of results on the road, the Barbarians had been looking forward to returning home to Robilliard Park and getting things back on track in front of their home crowd. Gamble said they were feeling good heading into the game, and they started off well, but couldn’t finish it off.
“I think I was disappointed more with some of the option-taking that the boys took out on the field. “We had them on the ropes, but I think a bit of white line fever came in,” Gamble said. The two sides were locked at 16-all late in the game when the Barbarians were awarded what was a kickable penalty which would’ve given them a two-point lead, but they opted to take the tap instead, and it didn’t pay off.
Gamble said, in hindsight, those two points would have been a psychological blow to the Rams, but instead the visitors held the Barbarians out and then scored what turned out to be the winning try. “I felt like we were the better team. “I’m just not too sure what happened, it’s hard to pinpoint,” Gamble said. The feeling of disappointment was evident in the Baabaas’
changing rooms after the game, but the Ashburton team would look to learn from their mistakes in their final three games of the regular season, starting with their next game at home against the Halswell Hornets this weekend. Although the loss was the Barbarians’ third on the trot, they remained in a strong position heading into the business end of the season, still well in line for a semi-final spot.
