Tough challenge: Solar industry struggling Businesses come to terms with government’s solar page 9 scheme being axed.
ired of seeing footage of animals treated inhumanely in abattoirs and across the commercial meat industry, one Marrickville business has taken action. Urban Food Market, an ethical and sustainable meat supplier, sources their products from farmers who have implemented ethical and sustainable farming methods. “There are no cages, no concrete floors, no feed lots, no growth promotants and no added hormones used in the production of any of the produce we use,” said owner, Tim Elwin. Mr Elwin began the business as a side venture, delivering orders to friends with an eski tied to the back of his vespa. And now the company supplies some of Sydney’s fi nest restaurants. The challenges of being an ethical produce supplier are a constant balancing-act, particularly the selfimposed restrictions and barriers to growth, according to Mr Elwin. “We don’t just slaughter animals and find a market. With a sustainable business we ensure that the whole supply chain is supported, from the farmer to the land to the animal,” Mr Elwin said.

I have spent a few days thinking about what to write this month… I thought about our politicians, the people we call our leaders and their appalling behaviour over the past weeks. But I didn’t want to write a negative column. I think what we all need is some perspective after the circus from Canberra so I am going to tell you about some extraordinary people doing extraordinary work who make me burst with pride that our country is producing “true leaders”. Th is story begins four years ago at the Sydney Children’s Hospital where I was fi lming a ‘60 Minutes’ story on the most aggressive children’s cancer of all, neuroblastoma. I met Lucy and her 9-monthold daughter Sienna. I discovered that they had just arrived from England, knew no one and Sienna had just been diagnosed with neuroblastoma. I was a new dad and their story hit me very hard.
THE INNER CITY WEEKENDER
an association with I wondered about Lucy and Sienna over the ensuing two years, and one day a letter landed on my desk from Lucy telling me that her darling Sienna had become a little angel. Lucy gave birth to Jamie fi ve days later. Can you imagine, preparing a funeral and preparing to bring a new baby into the world. I called Lucy and to cut a long story short, have since helped her with her Frangipani Charity Gala dinner in honour of Sienna. In three years, the dinner has raised a quarter of a million dollars for the Children’s Cancer Institute of Australia. So for me, Lucy is one of our “True Leaders”. And at our recent Frangipani dinner I met two more of our “True Leaders”. I had the honour of chairing a discussion with Professor Michelle Haber and Professor Murray Norris from the CCIA. The room was silent as these
passionate, caring researchers took us into their world… a world focussed on curing children’s cancer. Professor Haber had us wiping away tears as she described her determination to cure the next generation, of her mission when she gets out of bed every morning to discover this cure. We learnt about the challenge of trying to beat the neuroblastoma cancer cells that repel aggressive traditional chemotherapy. We heard about their unbridled joy when someone in the lab makes a potential breakthrough. Indeed a recent discovery has put them front and centre on the world stage when it comes to children’s cancer research. “True Leaders” are people like Lucy and Professors Haber and Norris. Hope you can join me for Nine News, Sydney’s Number one nightly at six.

Wild weather strikes, all before lunch 120 millimetres: Heavy rain and flash flooding in inner west on Thursday resulted in resident evacuations and road closures BY LOUISE BOURKE
H
eavy rain and flash flooding hit Sydney suddenly yesterday morning, with parts of Marrickville, Tempe and St Peters bearing the brunt of the wild weather. 120 millimetres of rain fell across the CBD and inner west, making it Sydney’s wettest day in five years – and all before lunchtime. Up to 20 residents in Wharf Street, Marrickville, and surrounding streets were evacuated at 10am as fl ash fl ooding engulfed cars and threatened homes. Police closed Illawarra Road approaching Wharf Street to motorists, but later reopened the road when fl ooding subsided around 11am. SES volunteers moved in to block access to Wharf Street as the swollen Cooks River spilled onto Steel Park. A number of homes in Tempe were also threatened by the Cooks River as it flooded onto the Princes Highway. Melissa Mekrizis’ house on Old Street, Tempe, had fl ood waters up to her front garden. “I think we should be fi ne,” she said. “[I] can only imagine how devastating it is for those who are in the real floods.” The heavy rains caused major traffi c delays for motorists, bus and train services, with some stations, including Lewisham, fl ooded with water. Once the rain eases today, the damage to the local area will be assessed and a clean-up is expected to get underway.
The Inner City Weekender captured scenes from around the inner west on Thursday as water flooded suburban streets.

New kids on the brew block
The brand new Young Henry s promises some super hoppy brews for those inner west beer geeks BY LOUISE BOURKE
L
ike many good partnerships, Richard Adamson and Oscar McMahon’s began at a pub over a few beers. And three years later, the inner west locals are about to open Newtown’s own microbrewery, Young Henry’s, to start producing their brand of natural and seasonal ales, cloudy ciders, and some “super hoppy” brews for “beer geeks”. “We’re Newtown locals and it’s just the right neighbourhood,” said Mr Adamson, a former brewer at Baron’s Brewing. “It’s been tricky, fi nding the right space. But we’ve had great support.” Named after Mr Adamson’s son, Henry, the 12-hectolitre brewery on Wilford Lane is set to begin producing beer from next week and will supply to pubs in the local area, as well as small bars, restaurants and specialist retailers around the CBD. Locals will be able to purchase 2 litre glass bottle “growlers” – the equivalent of a six-pack without the extra packaging – direct from the cellar door and return for refi lls. As for the original young Henry, he isn’t yet aware that his name is the inspiration for the business. Mr McMahon said the moniker, which was thrown around in early meetings, just stuck. “It just fi ts in that we’ve got a traditional element to what we’re doing, but a new attitude,” he said.

Positive policy change Council modifies its Domestic Violence Leave Policy to support victims BY LOUISE BOURKE
M
arrickville Council has modifi ed its existing Domestic Violence Leave Policy to allow 20 days paid special leave to employees who experience domestic violence. The motion, led by Councillor Mary O’Sullivan, was carried unanimously at Tuesday night’s meeting and will be open to all current and future employees. The 20-day leave entitlement
is designed to allow employees to attend medical appointments, legal proceedings and related activities. It supersedes the former Council policy, which had no allocated provision for leave as a result of domestic violence. “Our policy lacks defi nition and needs a concise amount of leave dedicated to domestic violence, with its own protocols,” Cr O’Sullivan said. “Workers who suff er violence in their homes need confi dence and support during that experience.”
Ludo McFerran, from the Australian Domestic and Family Violence Clearinghouse at UNSW, is relieved Council will now have a clear policy on how many leave days people can take, and when. “Disclosure is really important here,” Ms McFerran said. “People won’t talk about domestic violence so it’s important that the support is unambiguous.” Other Sydney councils, including City of Sydney, Ashfi eld and Canterbury, have adopted similar policies.
At about 7.30am on Monday, February 20, police were called to the carpark of a fast food restaurant in St Peters after reports of a man slumped over the wheel of a car. Police arrived to fi nd the man conscious and breathing, however heavily drug-aff ected. An ambulance took the man to Royal Prince Alfred Hosptial. He had taken an unknown quantity of Gamma-hydroxybutyrate, commonly known as G or GHB. Police located a number of vials of the drug as well as other drugs within the man’s vehicle. The 36-year-old is due to attend Newtown Local Court on March 13 to answer Possess Prohibited Drug charges. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Caught red-handed: Mail thief
At about 4.50pm on Saturday, March 3, police were patrolling Kingston Road in Camperdown when they observed a 29-year-old man from Alexandria crouching down in a doorway. Police stopped the man and upon searching him found a large number of mail belonging to residents of the unit block in his possession.
Police also located a pair of pliers, a knife and a screwdriver on the man. The man was arrested and conveyed back to Newtown Police Station where checks revealed the man was also in breach of his bail. He is due to appear before Balmain Local Court on March 21. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Cannabis caution: Man caught by police
A 32-year-old man from Marrickville was arrested and issued with a Cannabis Caution after police located an amount of the illegal drug on Tuesday, March 6. Marrickville Police stopped the male walking from his vehicle after receiving some information that he may be in possession of an illegal drug. Police searched him and located a quantity of cannabis inside a cigarette packet. The male was arrested and interviewed before receiving a cannabis caution notice as per the cannabis cautioning scheme. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The 34th Mardi Gras parade, held on Saturday, attracted more than 9,000 people along Oxford Street despite the inclement weather. The common message was equality, with religious and
social groups and police and fi refighters all represented on floats. Federal Labor MPs Anthony Albanese and Tanya Plibersek were joined on the Rainbow Labor Marriage Equality Float with state colleagues Carmel Tebbutt and Linda Burney. Mr Albanese, who has attended the parade for the past 25 years, said there was still more reform to be done. “What we see gradually is
a shift of community attitudes over time, a recognition that by giving people who happen to be same-sex couples equal rights, it doesn’t actually take away the rights from heterosexual couples,” he told the ABC. Guest of honour, Kylie Minogue, thanked the throngs of people who attended via Twitter. “THANK YOU @SydneyMardiGras & Mardigrasland... YOU were amazing...” she said.

Council considers DA for low-cost housing at former Newtown RSL site BY LOUISE BOURKE
M
arrickville Council is considering a development application to turn the former Newtown RSL club building on Enmore Road into a boarding house and commercial office space with car parking. The application states that approval is being sought to carry out alterations and additions to the premises to convert the former club building into commercial tenancy and car parking on the ground floor, with a 77room boarding house on levels one to four. It also states that the applicants, Boston Blyth Fleming, had previously consulted with community organisations including the Newtown Neighbourhood Centre and Sydney University Accommodation Management regarding the demand for low-cost housing in the area. According to the development application, the estimated cost to redevelop the 866 square metre site is just over $5 million. A spokesperson from Marrickville Council said the proposal was currently on notification until March 15 and that it was too early to anticipate when it would be determined. Residents are currently able to give feedback to Council on the development application. The Enmore Road building, which last traded as a licensed premises called @ Newtown RSL, has been vacant for two years. What are your thoughts? Email Louise. Bourke@innercityweekender.com.au.

Worst local roads
NRMA survey is calling for inner west to name worst roads
W
hether you drive a car, truck, motorbike or scooter, inner west motorists are again being called on to pick the worst roads in the area in a new NRMA survey. 10,000 people voted in last year’s inaugural ‘Seeing Red on the Roads’ survey, which identifi ed Parramatta Road as the most frustrating local road. Following the campaign, millions of dollars in funding
was allocated to local roads by the NSW Government, including $37.5 million for road-related projects around the inner west. “After the success of last year’s campaign we decided to run the survey annually, to ensure our politicians are accountable and continue to deliver better and safer roads for NSW,” said NRMA President, Wendy Machin. NRMA Local Director, Dawn Fraser, said this year’s
survey was easy to complete and would arm the motoring organisation with crucial information to fi x roads. “If we are going to build on the results from last year... then we need as many motorists from the inner-west getting involved as possible,” she said. The survey is available on the NRMA web page and will be open until May 15. The results will be released in early June.
us commuters on the way into the Sydney CBD may have found a copy of the award-winning documentary, ‘Gasland’, in their bus shelter on Tuesday morning. More than one hundred copies of the fi lm were distributed to inner west bus stops by members of the community action group, Stop CSG-Sydney. “Today we are launching a real world viral campaign to encourage people to watch the DVD, and then pass it on to family or friends, or to leave it somewhere where it can be picked up by someone else,” said Stop CSG-Sydney spokesperson, Isabel McIntosh. Each DVD has a note on the back urging those who fi nd them to ‘Pick me up. Watch me. Pass me on’. “[The DVDs are] also individually numbered and we are hoping people will tweet #CSGDVD or add a photo to Facebook telling where they found the DVD, what they thought of it, and how they passed it on,” Ms McIntosh said.

GreenWay ride proves to be a success, campaigners say
Local solar businesses will feel the pinch after the Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme was scrapped.
Tough challenge
Solar industry left in dark after government scheme is axed BY LOUISE BOURKE
A
local business has criticised the Federal Government’s sudden axing of the solar hot water rebate last week, warning that some will do it tough and might even go under. Thomas Bywater, from Greenforce Energy in Marrickville, said it was bad management to abruptly end the scheme as companies
had planned ahead. “The industry had planned for the scheme to fi nish in June, putting on staff , buying hot water systems, making sure they were set up to meet demand,” Mr Bywater said. “But now it’s ended abruptly in February with no warning… some businesses will struggle and some will go under… it’s worse than getting no help.” The now-defunct
Renewable Energy Bonus Scheme allowed households to claim a rebate of $1,000 for a solar hot water system or $600 for a heat pump hot water system. Only people who had placed an order before February 28 will be able to access the rebate. Climate Change parliamentary secretary, Mark Dreyfus, said it was “good budget practice” to do so.
Big numbers attended the New Volunteers Day ride to drum up support for the GreenWay project. BY LOUISE BOURKE
A
bout 85 riders took part in the Friends of the GreenWay ‘New Volunteers Day’ ride between Sydney Harbour and the Cooks River last month. Event organisers were pleased with the turnout for the 90 minute ride. “We are ecstatic about the turnout, which underlines the strong community
support for this initiative,” said Liz Locksley, convenor of the Friends of the GreenWay. “We’re very happy that we’ve gained some extra volunteers to take our campaign to the next step.” While drumming up new support for the GreenWay project, the ride also served to illustrate the diffi cult and challenging journey from Sydney Harbour to the Cooks River without a dedicated offroad trail.
Riders had to cross several busy streets, without traffi c lights or bridge assistance, including Marion Street at Leichhardt, Longport Street at Lewisham and Old Canterbury Road at Summer Hill. Marrickville Councillor, Peter Olive, who was one of the day’s officials and helped riders cross the busy roads, said the ride illustrated how “poor and dangerous” the current route for cyclists is.

10 BUSINESS Business Finance Startling Figures Business bankruptcy
Startling new ‘business bankruptcy’ figures paint a grim picture for struggling small operators; twice as many SMEs folded last year than in 2010. But there is a way to keep bankruptcy at bay and turn a fl oundering fi rm into a flourishing one. First, take a step back and try to understand what set the company on its current path. While there’s always management and strategy issues you need to look at honestly, fi nance can be a big culprit. Second, get back to basics and reassess your business plan and goals. Take all costs into consideration from equipment to marketing and do a competitive analysis to ensure there is demand for your service. Th ird, put yourself in the shoes of your customers and understand what compels them to become a ‘regular’ user of your business. Unless you offer a completely unique product or service, then your most valuable asset will be your people. Installing a winning culture won’t come easy, but it is possible. Finally, give the business a ‘financial health check’ and get your cash flow under control. Devise a clear payment contract for new clients, review your financial products and if they aren’t working, talk to your lender.

It will certainly be wise to think before you speak as it will save endless trouble. Mind you, other people may not be so considerate and you may have to deal with someone who fails to engage their brain before they open their mouth. Try not to hold this against them – tempting as this may be, it’s far more likely to be due to lack of thought than malice. You have a hectic schedule up ahead of you so pace yourself and remember to slow down when driving!

The Full Moon falls directly in your financial house and it will be very tempting to act in impetuous or impulsive ways, but that will have a potentially disruptive effect on your various personal and household budgets. During this time, you could be tempted to take on more than you can handle, and even though it doesn’t sound very exciting, you need to keep within your limitations as this will give you a much greater sense of control.

August 24 to September 23
The Full Moon falls directly in your sign making you rather irritable, cranky and insecure. This means that relationships with loved ones are going to be tested. You need to think carefully about some of the associations in your life – are they fulfilling and satisfying or are some of them sadly lacking, making you wonder if they’re actually worth all the effort you are putting in? Your only solution may be to bring things to a head and clear the air!

It takes a lot to keep a good Libran down but owing to the Full Moon in Virgo it will be easy to lose faith in yourself, see this as a temporary blip and don’t give up. Even if it’s more than that see it as a chance to reconstruct your plans. Ensure that this time you’ve eliminated all the problems or weak points. Don’t forget that you are at your most formidable when faced with a challenge. It is also important to rest up and don’t let your nerves wear you out!

October 24 to Nov 22
This week’s Full Moon shines brightly on your social sector and it could mean that one casual friendship or working association may come to an end. A friend may need to either cancel or postpone a meeting, you could also have cause to doubt a friend’s loyalty or support, but don’t read too much into this until you’re sure that you have all the facts. Writing them off at this stage would be unfair, so reserve judgement!

Nov 23 to Dec 21
A major reassessment of your career is going to be necessary. You need to mount a major offensive to improve the way you live, work and support yourself. Whatever you have learnt from recent challenges can be used to maintain your position, don’t lose sight of your goals and on no account make compromises simply because you feel over-burdened. Draw on the strength of loved ones as they will help to give you the believe in your ability to move mountains!

This weeks clash between the Moon and Mars means getting from A to B will be a frustrating business. Double check all flight details and travel plans. If you want to avoid a nasty case of road rage keep your wits about you and play some calming music on the car stereo. It really isn’t worth getting embroiled in an argument with fellow road users, is it? Be wary if handling legal documents as complications are likely. Be certain to read everything before singing.
Disputes are likely over joint finances or possessions. If you’re working through a divorce, property settlement or ending a business partnership, be wary of underhanded tactics from your opposition. Misunderstandings threaten to undermine how secure you’re feeling, but these can be avoided if you take the time to explain yourself. Spelling out your position ensures that others understand where you’re coming from.

Heaven help anyone who crosses you as they’ll get more than they bargained for. The best cure is prevention, so when you feel yourself getting wound up, find some physical outlet to help diffuse the stress. You’re feeling very single-minded about where you stand at the moment and there is no point in trying to persuade you to soften your approach. You could run the risk of putting a few people’s backs up. It isn’t the first time and it won’t be the last.

Being safe and secure
Handling stress
Keeping Fit relief, as it conditions the body and mind, and encourages the release of endorphins, which help you feel good. 4. Indulge Yourself: Enjoy a well-deserved massage or some other blissful treatment – perhaps soak in a bath with relaxing aromatherapy oils such as lavender, ylang ylang, chamomile or geranium. 5. Eat Healthy Foods: For a healthy mind and body, eat a diet abundant in fresh, brightly coloured fruits and vegetables. Eat protein with meals and snacks, and enjoy foods high in essential fatty acids such as oily fi sh, nuts and seeds. Cut down on the caff eine, energy drinks, sugar, alcohol and processed foods as these will contribute to fatigue in the long-term. Although the stress of modern life is inescapable, it is important to remember we can easily manage our response. Contact Susan Garrad from Women’s Health Naturally via www.womenshealthnaturally. com.au.
David Stein After last week’s column one of the places I mentioned contacted me and offered to put in their view to our question of ‘what makes us fit and healthy?’ As I have said before, there is a lot more to health than a six pack or not having the fl u. Th is week we have an interesting idea on what can aff ect our health from Jeff . “Being a P.E teacher/self defence instructor for around 15 years I always get the same response when I ask what do you do to be healthy? Exercise and eat right. If only it were that simple! There are so many facets of health. One that many people neglect is security. In Maslow’s hierarchy of needs after the all important physiological needs, there is the safety or security needs. Many of us feel unsafe in many aspects of our lives. Whether it’s someone harassing us at school or intimidating us in the workplace, fear of sexual assault, perhaps an abusive loved one or even working in a potentially dangerous occupation. Any profession where you have to
tell people things they do not want to hear has the potential for violence such as nurses or estate agents and hospitality, not to mention security, police and the justice systems. If you get to the point where you are trying to stop someone strangling you, you have done something very wrong. There are so many steps prior to physical assault where you could have prevented the incident turning physical. Making informed decisions about your safety is one. Do not leave a key under your door mat, don’t park in a dark isolated area

he Chrissie Cotter Gallery in Camperdown has a diverse range of exhibitions to check out this March. Regeneration and Renewal: The Strength of Women, by Salwa El Shaikh and Fiona Arnold, celebrates women’s strength and creativity as they live and learn, grow, love, fossick, create, renew and regenerate. The opening on March 8 coincided with International Women’s Day. From March 21, a group exhibition of artists will raise money for the Chris O’Brien Life House at RPA Hospital. The art works on display will include photography, assemblage, watercolour, drawing, oil painting, collage and ceramics. In Reshaping the Past by Joss Gabriel, Matthew Glasson and Ngoc Tran, each artist explores a different medium while united by a common passion for taking the

old, used and expired by redesigning, reworking and repurposing it. All works in the exhibit, which opens on March 30, use recycled materials
and skills that have been rebooted from the artists’ own pasts resulting in sculptural mobiles, collages, jewellery and miniature mixed media.
ollowing last year’s critically-acclaimed national tour of Belong, Bangarra Dance Theatre presents Terrain, a powerful fusion of contemporary dance and storytelling by awardwinning Aboriginal choreographer, Frances Rings. Described as a hymn to country, Terrain is inspired by Lake Eyre,
Australia’s inland sea and one of the few untouched natural waterways in the world. Beyond the ancient vastness, the audience will be transported through drought and deluge, witnessing the ephemeral transformation of a place where nature delivers in abundance, promises all, but guarantees nothing. “Landscape is an intrinsic part of our identity
and who we are,” Ms Rings said. “Th rough Terrain I hope to show audiences that our landscape is unique and powerful and that this is one of the last untouched Australian landscapes.” Tickets for the Sydney season of Terrain at the Opera House from July 18 to August 18 are now on sale at www.sydneyoperahouse. com.

Greeks in the Far Orient by Anastgasios Myrodis Tami Launched by the Hon Bob Hawke After his valuable work on Greek emigration to Australia, New Zealand and Latin America, Anastasios Tamis has now focued on the Far East, for which primary sources are comparatively scarce. Using interviews and oral histories, as well as Greek diplomatic archives and, through translators, Chinese and Japanese official sources, he has compiled a history of Greeks in China, Japan, Korea and the Philippines. The book is described by Professor Speros Vryonis Jr as ‘a major contribution to the historical experience of the Greek people in one of its most dynamic expressions: seafaring and emigration’. Date

START BUILDING THE TRACK A
new Indigenous-led design project, The Pathway: Building the Track, was launched at UTS’s DAB LAB Research Gallery this week. The project documents Gandangara Local Aboriginal Land Council (LALC) as it considers BioBanking on a Mill Creek site in Menai. Mill Creek runs through rare bush land while sitting
alongside one of the busiest roads in Sydney. Despite the hard fought efforts of Land Council and Land Alive trainees, the area continues to suff er from huge amounts of illegal dumping and damaging 4WD and motorbike riding. The Pathway offers expert opinions and insights into some of the challenges of looking after traditional lands in a modern city.

Kia Motors Australia pushing ahead with national sales
New Toyota Camry led the field as official pace car in late February.

Toyota Camry named as official pace car
T
he new Toyota Camry led the fi eld as the official pace car for the 54th running of the Daytona 500 late last month. It was the fi rst time a Toyota has led the fi eld to the green fl ag for the “Great American Race”. The specially equipped pace car was fi tted with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymetric tyres mounted on BBS RS
8.5 x 19 wheels, a StopTech Big Brake Kit, TRD custom stainless steel exhaust and Tein adjustable suspension – as well as special graphics and warning lights. Safety equipment included a roll cage, fourpoint Simpson racing seat belts, Whelen LFL Liberty LED lightbar and an onboard fi re extinguisher. “We’re thrilled to be able

to feature the new Camry in Daytona at the season’s biggest race. We knew when the opportunity arose... it would be an extraordinary way to highlight our new Camry, as well as reinforce Toyota’s commitment to NASCAR and its fans,” said Ed Laukes, vice president of marketing communications and motorsports for Toyota in the US.
N
ational retail vehicle sales for Kia Motors Australia have increased by 19.4 per cent compared to the same period last year and are up by 14.2 per cent compared to February 2011, according to fi gures released by the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries this week. The figures are supported across the Kia range with its
passenger and SUV segments up 15.2 per cent and 15.3 per cent, respectively. Leading the charge in the passenger segment is the allnew Kia Rio up 68.9 per cent compared to February 2011. The award winning 5-door hatch was joined by its 3 and 4-door siblings, which were launched during February with early indications proving very positive.
“We have very successfully launched the 3 and 4 door Kia Rio models,” said Kia Motors Australia Chief Operating Officer, Tony Barlow. Another highlight within the passenger range was Optima showing an increase of 21.3 per cent. SUV fi gures were buoyed by a very strong Sportage month.

TIGER RUMBLINGS Let’s pack Leichhardt more!
Troy Dodds
H
ow good was it to see a full house at Leichhardt Oval last Sunday? There’s no better sight in rugby league, and we can only hope that the suburban games continue. Th ere’s been talk that games at Leichhardt and Campbelltown may one day become “member’s only aff airs”, and I don’t see anything wrong with that. If we can create an atmosphere at Leichhardt and Campbelltown that is unmatched in the NRL, what’s the problem?
Tim Sheens was pretty proud of his team’s effort against the Sharks last weekend even though plenty of lost ball was involved. Given the hot conditions and the fact that it’s only round one, Sheens was understanding of the error rate. “Sitting in the box you can be screaming all you like about a dropped ball and a missed tackle but I think most of us would drop dead if we were out there at the moment,” Sheens told the post-match press conference.
The NRL this week released timing details of rounds six and seven of the competition. The Tigers find themselves with a Friday Night Football fi xture on April 6 (round six) against the Broncos at Allianz Stadium. In round seven, it’s a tip to the foot of the Mountains where the Tigers tackle Penrith on Sunday, April 15 at 3pm.
The conditions were also the big talking point amongst the players. “The heat combined with how heavy the ground was didn’t help. We made it tough for ourselves in patches with our completion rate... if we would have controlled the ball a bit more, we wouldn’t have done it as tough as we did,” said Benji Marshall.
Tonight’s clash with Manly in Gosford has the potential to be an absolute blockbuster. With Keith Galloway out injured, Aaron Woods and Matt Groat fi nd their way into the side. Th ey have much less experience compared to Manly’s big forwards, but there’s no reason why the young guns can’t produce something spectacular for the Tigers against the defending champions.
Benji Marshall has revealed that after every training session, fi eld goals are practiced. Turns out that training was a big help, given Marshall was called upon to kick a one-pointer to win the game last Sunday. A quick get well soon message to James Tedesco. It was an absolute tragedy to see him being taken from the field.

Martial milestone

M
arrickville’s own Australian Martial Arts academy, one of Australia’s longest serving and largest martial arts schools, turns 30 this month. Boasting fi ve academies and multiple international and world champions, the Academy has produced more than 1,300 black belts and 12,000 members during its three decades of operation. While originally a project of Th e Turkish Welfare Association created to keep teens off the streets, Australian Martial Arts now caters from littlies right through to adults. “30 years has come around very quickly and I have loved watching our academy become one of the most professional and friendly schools and get better every single day,” said owner, Master Ridvan Manav. “It is such a privilege to watch all of our members and now their children coming
