Branxholm driver 27-year old Danny Leslie Hayes, of Station Road, was pinned by the lower leg when the truck came to rest. Sergeant Dale French, of Scottsdale Police, said it appeared the softness of the damp ground was all that stopped the truck rolling further down the steep section of farmland. "I'd say he was extremely lucky the truck and load pulled up where it did." "It seemed as though the load of about 35 tonnes of pine logs rolled off the lip of the road and pulled the prime mover down the hill," Sergeant French said. Paramedics had to use the jaws of life to free Mr Hayes, who was trapped in the cab for nearly an hour. However, he did not have to be admitted after treatment at hospital. • The scene of the truck accident on Mathinna Plains Road Government urged to resolve McGinity suspension McLennans Butchery LIBERAL member for Bass Peter Gutwein has urged the Minister for Health, Lara Giddings, to contact the Medical Council of Tasmania to hasten the investigation into Dr Paul McGinity. Mr Gutwein said it is everyone’s interests that the matter is resolved quickly Dr McGinity is now allowed to practise for only 42 hours a week supervised or 18 hours a week if a locum is available on the end of the phone. In the absence of a locum, Dr McGinity is now back to three hours per day, 6 days per week. It has now been 15 weeks since Dr McGinity was originally suspended. Only four of the complaints have been investigated, leaving 11 remaining. "Many of those could, according to Dr McGinity, be investigated in five minutes," Mr Gutwein said. "Patients that relied on Dr McGinity are clearly not getting the health care they deserve. "The Minister must contact the Medical Council and offer to provide extra resources to allow this matter to be expedited," Mr Gutwein said. Meanwhile a further public meeting organised by the Community Action Group will be held at the Scottsdale RSL Club on Wednesday July 15 at 7pm. Among those who will address the meeting is Liberal Senator Guy Barnett. "All the evidence suggests there has been an abuse of process and a denial of natural justice to Dr McGinity," Senator Barnett said. "In Tasmania, and across the country, we have a real shortage of qualified doctors, which means ELLENOR STREET, SCOTTSDALE Phone 6352 2237 THIS WEEK’S SPECIALS AVAILABLE UNTIL WEDNESDAY JULY 15 • NEW YORK STRIP LOIN-$16.99/KG • BLADE ROAST - • CHICKEN SCHNITZEL $8.79/KG (BREAST) - $12.55/KG • Peter Gutwein MHA “ No lollies just the best meat in town!” medical practices are working long hours to meet the needs of the community.

Names, addresses and telephone numbers must be included. Unsigned letters or those with pen names will not be published. DOCTOR MCGINITY SUPPORT Sir, Ms.Yasmin Rawnsley has been the motivator behind the Doctor Paul McGinity Support Group and the community has discovered another leader to follow in the footsteps of other notable women who have stood up for the people of the North East. In times of need, and loss of essential services, the community will always react when natural justice and procedural fairness is not observed. Ms Rawnsley has organised the rallies and captured the interest of the community. The Goverment and Health Department did not treat the withdrawal of Doctor McGinity as a matter of urgency, while some councillors were supportive, it appeared the Dorset Council did not show lead- ership and ensure that medical services in particular at Derby were a priority for Branxholm, Ringarooma, Winnaleah, Herrick, Pioneer, Gladstone, Rushy Lagoon, Weldborough and Cape Portland. It beggars belief that these hamlets were left without the services of a doctor for more than 12 weeks, and can not be tolerated. People’s lives were put at risk. Already Ms Rawnsley's name is well known in the corridors of power, and like former women leaders such as Pat Pinner, Sheila Ryan, May Winter, and present councillor Yvonne Thorne, and many others her opinion is being heard as theirs was in the past when they fought for what is right. While there is still some way to travel, I believe the community would not have achieved what it has without the leadership of this young woman. Already change is taking place over the management of the North Eastern Soldiers Memorial Hospital which has been brought forward to the 1st of July, in the pipeline is a paramedic service, advocated by Doctor McGinity more than 18 months ago. Doctor McGinity is back at work on a restricted basis of 60 hours per week, but his emergency privileges have not been restored, nor his privileges as a visiting V.M.O. to the local hospital. It is essential these privileges be restored, and the Health Department must assist Doctor McGinity in obtaining another doctor to his practice. The support given by Bass Parliamentarians Sue Napier, Peter Gutwien, Kim Booth and Senator Barnett to Yasmin has been appreciated. This young woman has galvanised the community and warrants your continued support. Brian P.

THE Mayor and General Manager of the Dorset Council have used a meeting with Federal Local Government Minister Anthony Albanese to push their case for funding of the fourth stage of Scottsdale Recreation Ground's redevelopment. Mayor Peter Partridge said he'd been given a good hearing over the $3.5 million proposal. "The Minister addressed the Australian Council of Local Government conference in Canberra earlier in the week, where he again spoke of constitutional recognition of local government. So we do believe he knows the role local councils play is important," Councillor Partridge said. He said the announcement of a second round of C o m m u n i t y Infrastructure Funding was also welcome, taking Federal support for local government to $1 billion Australia-wide. Dorset's share would be $108,000, with the council to prioritise projects before November. There is also a new nation-wide competitive fund of $120 million that TASMANIA'S timber industry has been challenged to ensure that the most value possible comes from every stick of timber that comes out of the State's forests. The Legislative Council Member for Apsley, Tania Rattray-Wagner, said the prospect of a new world-class pulp mill put the industry on the verge of new era requiring it to develop a new vision. She was officially opening the State conference of Timber Communities Australia. “To ensure an appropriate balance between development and conservation, I believe any vision for the future of the timber industry should be built on forest industry participants who continue to obey the law, strictly meet the require- ments of the Forest Practices Code and who are independently audited to prove performance,” she said. “Most importantly, industry participants must commit to sending every stick of timber coming from our forests and plantations to its highest value end use, whether that is veneer or premium grade board product at one end or firewood at the other. “If Timber Communities Australia can embrace a vision like this, then individuals will have secure jobs, communities will flourish and our State will have a greater capacity to provide education, health services, law and order, and all the other services Tasmanians need,” she said. Tourism tips from far North West Dorset will apply for if the ground recreation upgrade misses out on the similar package offered last September. Councils were bidding for a share of $220 million in that program and Councillor Partridge said the successful projects were expected to be known within weeks. "People would know that the Council bought the old BP fuel depot on the railway side of the oval to make way for the relocated squash courts, gymnasium, football change rooms and social complex, so Canberra can see we're serious," he said. NORTH EAST has met North West to gain some tips on tourism promotion a dinner in over Scottsdale. The president of North East Tasmania Tourism, Eileen Edwards, said the Circular Head Tourism Association was often held out within the industry as a case study of how it should be done. The response was to invite the Tourism Officer for the Association, Jason Clare, to speak to NETT directors. “The far North West and we in the North East have much in common, especially in relation to properly promoting our tourism businesses. “In one respect they face even bigger challenges because they are seen to be at the end of the road, with most visitors having to back track over the same section of highway. “We have a bigger supply of tourists crissour region crossing between Launceston and the East Coast, but we need to find ways to stop them in their tracks or at least slow them down preferrably for a night or two,” Ms Edwards said. Mr Clare detailed how the for support association had grown since the decision to adopt a consistent brand of “Stanley” for all material promoting the entire area. “There were some old township rivalries and doubts that had to be broken down, but now we’ve got better than 95 per cent representation of accredited tourism operators. “Despite a relatively high fee structure operators can see the benefits in joining the through Association • Visiting North West tourism marketer Jason Clare has some advice for NETT president Eileen Edwards and Scottsdale Visitor Information Centre co-ordinator Rosemary Calder getting a bigger bang for their buck.” Mrs Edwards said the original idea was to have Mr Clare address the NETT Board as part of a review of membership fees, but there was much more gained from his presentation. “We still have to look at fees, but I’m not sure North East operators would be prepared for a sliding scale of membership up to $2800. “But I think we can take some further steps towards improving our marketing of the area, possibly by offering some packages with products from different operators through our improved website,” Ms Edwards said.

THE walking track to Cuckoo Falls has been reopened after replacement of a footbridge at the start of the popular trail. A Forestry Tasmania crew has built a much more robust structure in place of a bridge damaged in floods last year. supervisor Project Wayne Radford said the original bridge was built by scouts and other volunteers several years ago and served the track well. “We’ve used materials this time that hopefully will withstand any flooding and give the public much easier access to the beginning of the track.” Mr Radford said work on improving the track closer to the falls would continue over the next 12 months. “We hope to put some more board walk in over some of the boggier parts. “There’s one section that has a corded type treatment with manfern trunks that are breaking down. “We’ll leave the manferns in place, because they’re part of the history of the track, but by building a boardwalk over the top of them we’ll be able to prevent further damage to the track. “The work will obviously improve the safety aspect of the track as well,” Mr Radford said. The Cuckoo Falls track is popular with locals and visitors to the North East and takes about three hours for a return hike. Hero Adrian to the rescue • Adrian Clarke A former Scottsdale resident Adrian Clarke, has become a hero in his Queensland adopted home town of Hervey Bay after rescuing a young family from a burning house. Adrian was in his own backyard when he heard cries of help from next door. Upon seeing smoke billowing from the building's locked security door he leapt the fence and ripped the door from its hinges. After being thanked and congratulated by police a matter-of-fact Mr Clarke told a local newspaper: "It had to be done." Two adults and a four-year old girl, along with a dog and two pet birds were rescued from the house. All the human occupants were taken to hospital with only minor injuries and damage was restricted to the kitchen where the fire started. New Baby • Aden James Groves was born on July 6 at Scottsdale NESM Hospital to Warren Groves and Skye Moore. Aden is picture with his sister Becky THE Red Cross is urging the residents of Bridport to help strengthen its ability to prepare and respond in times of emergency. Red Cross Emergency Services Coordinator Chris Court admits the organisation could be found wanting in a prolonged call on its services. “If a major disaster strikes now in the Dorset area, our volunteer numbers could only provide support for days rather than weeks. "The recovery process for a large scale event can be an ongoing process. We currently have a dedicated core group but this needs to grow.“ Ms Court said Red Cross needed more volunteers with local knowledge to help with the registration, care and comfort of affected people during an emergency situation. “We rely on local people who can spare a little time to be trained to respond effectively.” She said the process to becoming an Emergency Services Volunteer was as simple as attending a free one-day training course and induction session. Training is to be delivered later this month in Bridport. Volunteers learn life skills, interpersonal communication and self-care skills while preparing to give something back to their community. Red Cross also offers the chance for trained volunteers to be deployed interstate, in the case of an emergency. “The effectiveness of our response to an emergency relies on local people being a part of the Red Cross team,” Ms Court said. People interested in attending the training session at Bridport on Thursday 30 July should ring 6235 6015 for more information or to book. WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 2009 THE NORTH EASTERN ADVERTISER - 5 Fishy folk find funds for infirmary THE fish must have been co-operating for members of the Bay Inn Fishing and Social Club of Bridport. At least something has put them in a generous mood to enable them to make a $2000 donation to Scottsdale's North East Soldiers' Memorial Hospital. Club member Rob Hammond said the money was proceeds from a raffle and social events. "We only have about 20 members and would welcome some more, so $2000 is not a bad effort,: he said. Mr Hammond said the club has periodic trips by boat or land based to fish at Ansons Bay or Lades Beach at Bridport. "A few of us have even been over to Flinders Island and Bicheno to get among the big ones." The hospital was certainly glad this want not another fisherman's tale about the one that got away. • Karren Hayes (left), and Rob Hammond (right) of the Bay Inn Fishing and Social Club of Bridport presenting Sue Bucher (middle) Director of Nursing at the NESM Hospital with a cheque worth $2000.

Swine flu also remains a problem in Australia, and precautions to help prevent the spread of infection are highly important. Nevertheless, the use of masks is just one aspect or risk reduction. Personal attention to hygiene is vital. Regular handwashing and the use of disposable tissues to capture coughed or sneezed viruses are essential. However, the flu – whether it’s the swine or seasonal variety – is not the only infectious disease we should be concerned about – nor the only cause of cough. For instance, already 14,000 cases of whooping cough have been notified in Australia this year. Whooping cough numbers have fluctuated over the last 15 years; but even in the epidemics which have occurred every three or four years, the total number of cases has been around 10,000. This year NSW has been particularly badly hit, reaching the 8,000 mark by mid-year, compared with a total last year of 7,000. Whooping cough (which is known medically as pertussis) is a serious, contagious bacterial infection. Early symptoms are similar to those of a cold. Then the typical cough or “whoop” develops which gives the condition its common name. This sound is due to a deep breath at the end of a bout of coughing. Vomiting after coughing is also common. In young babies symptoms can be severe and even life threatening. According to the Victorian Government’s Better Health website, one in every 200 babies who contract whooping cough will die. Early diagnosis and access to antibiotics is necessary for effective treatment and to minimise the spread among family and close contacts. Strict adherence to Australia’s immunisation schedule will prevent whooping cough. The vaccine is given, along with vaccination against other common infectious diseases, at two, four and six months of age; and then again at four years of age. To be fully protected adolescents should receive a booster dose of pertussis vaccine (together with diphtheria and tetanus) between the ages of 15 and 17 years – or about year 10 in high school. But, vaccination against whooping cough does not confer lifetime immunity, and large numbers of cases continue to occur in older people. Unvaccinated adult carriers of the whooping cough organism can put the lives of children at risk, so a booster dose of pertussis vaccine is recommended for healthcare workers or those caring for young children. With sometimes sensationalised or misguided stories about immunisation side effects, parents and carers can become understandably concerned and confused. In fact, immunisation strengthens the body’s immune system. It’s a simple, safe and effective Advertiser Crossword 772 CRYPTIC Across 1. Carry out or make an opening.(4) 4.

National Marketing Manager Ben Smith said Online Red Cross Senior First Aid (Workplace L2) was designed for people working full time, or busy parents caring for children at home who need to master emergency first aid skills such as CPR and resuscitation. “It is everyone’s responsibility to learn CPR and first aid, and now there is a convenient, comprehensive, and costeffective way to go about it. “The beauty of online learning is that it allows students to complete the course at a time, place and pace that is convenient to them. “Students can do the entire course in one go, or in small sections in their spare time – lunch breaks, quiet times or after work,” Mr Smith said. Red Cross is rolling out several internet-based first aid learning options to complement its popular onsite classes and workbook programs. The online version of Senior First Aid costs $150, and features audio, video, i n t e r a c t i v e demonstrations and online quizzes to make the material both educational and engaging. Successful completion of the online component is followed by a full day of practical skills instruction and an assessment session with a certified Red Cross Trainer - all included in the course fee. The course covers a whole range of topics, such as the “chain of survival”, how to deal with breathing cardiac emergencies, events and injuries, treating burns and scalds, bites and stings, caring for unconscious people and how to use the automated defibrilator external (AED). It also includes special first aid techniques for children and infants that will prove invaluable for teachers and childcare workers, as well as covering common conditions that can be treated with first aid, such as asthma, epilepsy and anaphylactic shock. Successful participants will receive a nationally recognised statement of attainment from the Health Training Package – HLTFA301B – Apply First Aid. The first course in the series, CPR Online, was launched earlier this year and has proved very popular with government departments, schools, child-care centres and mining and minerals companies that need certified First Aiders to comply with workplace regulations. Red Cross is also making use of mobile phones to spread the first aid message, with CPR and First Aid Treatment of Anaphylaxis animated packages information available as a download from a mobile phone for $3. For more information and to view a demonstration of the online course, visit the Red Cross website at www.redcross.org.au/first aid. Winter warning on deadly fires THE building advisory service of the Australian Institute of Architects, Archicentre, has warned that most fatal fires occur in the home and winter is a high fire risk time. A faulty electrical appliance or washing left too close to a heater could have disastrous consequences by exposing family members to death or injuries and causing major structural damage to a property.

Mountney • Accidents or distractions from cooking are main causes of kitchen fires Archicentre's Tasmanian State Manager, Michael Cooper, said there were around 11,000 house fires in Australia each year, killing about 60 people, often children. "Even if no one is hurt, the emotional cost of losing a home, with cherished possessions and memories, is traumatic." Mr Cooper said there were thousands of homes throughout Australia where lives were at risk because effective smoke alarms did not exist or were poorly installed or maintained. "Many homes damaged or destroyed by fire don't have working smoke alarms. In some cases fire authorities have reported the batteries have been removed from the smoke alarm rendering them inoperable." Mr Cooper said many families owe their lives to working smoke alarms as you can't smell smoke when you are asleep. "A small fire can grow to involve an entire room in two to three minutes. Smoke alarms are an essential early-warning system to alert you and your family to the dangers of fire and smoke and allow time to escape." Research by Australasian Fire Authorities Council (AFAC) found that the absence of a smoke alarm could increase the possibility of a fatality by 60%. "You should test it weekly by pushing the test button with a broom handle to make sure it beeps; vacuum smoke alarms monthly to clean the vents and replace the battery annually at the end of daylight saving with a long-life alkaline battery. "Smoke alarms don't last forever and usually have a life span of about 10 years. If your alarm is older than that the fire authorities recommend it be replaced." "Remember: in a fire, every second counts. Don't stop to pick up possessions or call the fire brigade. Your only priority is to get out. Call '000' from your neighbour's phone," Mr Cooper advised.

FOOTY FLASHBACKS Rovers grab 1959 flag By Des Brown SCOTTSDALE rovers won the 1959 Grand Final against Ringarooma by 6 points. It was the only time the Rovers were recognised, because generally they played as Legerwood seconds. None of the players ever trained. They met at Ted Harvey's Bake House on a Saturday morning and a team was picked on the bus on the way to the game. Ted paid all the expenses. Some Sundays a women's football team would play the Scottsdale Rovers or Colts at Springfield. A lot of Scottsdale players came from this football club over the years. Their colours were maroon and gold from late 1940 to early 1960. BACK: Eric Glennon, Reg Styles, Colin Moore, Joe Simmons, Murray Millwood, Brian Purcell, Allan Styles, Max Davey, John O'Keefe, Terence Brown, Don Campbell. FRONT: Joe Mullins (trainer), Mick Walker, Ted Harvey (coach and manager), David Heazelwood, Les Wilson, Doug Cooper, Kevin Brown (captain), Ken Styles, Barry Brown, Murray Bennett, Lance Chugg (trainer), WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 2009 12 - THE NORTH EASTERN ADVERTISER All three teams win in NTJFA ALL three Scottsdale teams had wins in the NTJFA on Sunday. Under 12’s bounced back after their loss last week, with every player getting plenty of the footy. The boys set themselves up for a win in the first quarter, kicking 5 goals to George Ttowns 1 point. Coach, Darren Martello was then able to rotate players through different positions for the remaining three quarters. In a good effort from the whole team, Sam Lockett, Joey Kling, Jaidyn Harris, Bradley Brown, Shaun Avent, Jonty Krushka and Lachlan McDougall all had good games. In a tight first quarter, George Town were beating Scottsdale Under 14’s to the footy, but the Magpies settled well to lead at the quarter break by 8 points. A five minute lapse in the second quarter by the Magpies allowed George Town back into the game but the boys answered the challenge and eventually ran out winners by 36 points. Bryton Mullins and Nick Griggs were very effective in the midfield and Ryan Irwin was dangerous across the forward line. Bradley Whish-Wilson attacked the ball well and Elliot Tyson and Danny Martello were good at ground level. Scottsdale Under 16’s were first to the ball and showed plenty of endeavour, although their disposals were letting them down too many times. Ky Crichton was given the opportunity to ruck a full game and was fantastic, giving onballers first use and making an impact at all his contests. Ethan Petterwood and Joshua Whelan played their usual style of game, getting in and under and feeding the ball out to good roving players in Mark Walsh and Joby Reynolds. The backline was well served by Kieran Mullins, Andrew Whitmore, Luke Gray, Rohan Lester and Cory Fennell, rebounding the footy well with good run and taking risks to switch play. Christian Barnes and Cale Burke were good focal points up forward. Coach, Cabel Hall said after the game that although the score suggests a good win, there is still room for improvement for this team. All three teams do not play next Sunday due to AFL match. Next games will be at home against Prospect on Sunday 19 July. Team photo’s will be taken this day and all players are requested to attend.

Last month Dominic travelled to Sydney for trials with the NSW institute of sport, to complete the application process. He was up against boys from the Riverina area of NSW, ACT, and New Zealand. Dominic will be mentored and trained by professional AFL coaches during his two years at the school. He will also be under the notice of selectors for the new Western Sydney club, although his long-held dream would be to play for the Sydney Swans. Dominic's decision to attend the Sports High School would come as no surprise to many around the Bridport and Scottsdale area. He has been a determined and talented junior footballer since he was five years old, when he with started Bridgenorth Football Club. Dominic went to training for two years before, at age seven, he was allowed to play a proper game. He then went on to be captain of Bridgenorth U12s and win a grand final. He went on to play with Bridport U16s, where he was voted best and fairest two years running, and won the Jimmy Leitch Award for best player. Having to move on with his football, Dominic progressed to Scottsdale Magpies U19s this year, where he is being supported by the whole club to improve his skills. Dominic also plays with the Scottsdale Crows U16s when other commitments allow. Coach Cabel Hall was instrumental in Dominic being nominated to trial for both the State U15 and U16s.

Tigers goalie Fiona Salter was on fire and repelled numerous attacks on goal. Linda Clow was creating opportunities in attack for the Tige’s assisted by Celina & Letitia Johnston and Sam Salter. Kate Child and Lisa Mahar were working overtime in defence for Rovers to limit Tigers scoring opportunities. The end result of this epic battle was a fitting draw 1 all. Goals: Tigers K Cox, Rovers S Kershaw Best: Tigers K Templeton, Sam Salter, Jodi Hopkins Rovers: S Kershaw, Kate Child Mel Morice At this stage in the season I feel it is appropriate to thank those who have umpired our games so far. Umpiring is a thankless job and the decisions you make will not please everyone but the game cannot be played without officials. We would encourage everyone to have a go at umpiring – it gives you a new perspective on the game and respect for those who do this job each week. IN the first game of the day Frogs scored a resounding 92 victory over the Devils. Frogs took control of the game with their forwards passing well and setting up numerous scoring opportunities. Devils defence battled hard but were no match for the relentless Frogs. Forwards Jodi Rattray, Susie Goodall and Lyn Artis worked hard in attack but it was Crystal Young who put the score on the board for Devils. Frogs “usual suspects” played well with Mikaela Saville, Emily Cox and Sheena Jarvis rating a special mention.

Scores were locked at the break when the Inn stole the thunder by taking the first doubles with ease. But then the Beagle Boys opened up with Bullman, out of retirement yet again, and the wayward Tick Tock Hughes and Co showed their style to seize the points. Brown was among the best for the Inn, winning two games but he was like the lone soldier in a rearguard action. Scores: Lords 5 d Bay Inn. In what most astute kerbside punters would Nearest pin - I.

The Tigers Mr Cool Shaw was in fine touch, yet took his shots so casually and Gough was likewise, but came in for some flak, similar to that of Sir John Kerr at his Melbourne Cup speech, in an umpire's ruling. Scores were even at bell time with Sure Shot Marshall and Knight doing fine for the Killers but it was now pressure cooker time. The Killers took the first two doubles and the show for now was over. But the Tigers are keeping their positive attitude and vow things will change next time round. Scores: Killers 5 d RSL Tigers 4.

It was a 19 goal turnaround from their clash back in May, but more importantly it was the team's first win against one of the top two teams in the NTFA. The Magpies led by just 13 points at three quarter time but in a dramatic final term booted eight goals while Rocherlea could muster just a point. Coach Anthony Taylor ranked it as one of the best victories by the team since he took over coaching last year, and he was particularly impressed with his players' low key response to the win. "They weren't carried away and accepted that they still have some way to go before thinking about a premiership," Taylor said. "But it will do great things for our self belief. They now know that there is a reward for hard work." Significantly the Magpies achieved the victory without any influence from Taylor himself, as he was forced from the ground early with a thigh injury. But Roozendaal, Rainbow and Mohr - the class acts of this team - stood up and dominated the match. Roozendaal played more of a defensive role while Rainbow did the rucking elsewhere. Mohr, as usual was the steadying influence in the back half. When Taylor went off, Nigel Thompson took his place at full forward. This was an unusual, perhaps even risky decision, but Thompson was the spark that got the Magpies firing. Kicking goals is not Thompson's strong suit (he booted 2.5 on Saturday), but his fearless attack on the ball galvanised the rest of team. Denham Hall played at full back, and kept the dangerous Wickham to five goals which included a couple from soft free kicks. Hall has always showed promise, but injuries and inconsistency have plagued his career. His past two matches as a key defender have been good, and being able to play forward and back is always a bonus. Taylor believes that midfield pressure was the key to the big victory, and it certainly assisted the defence particularly Hall. The Magpies went inside the 50m arc 60 times as against Rocherlea's 35 - a clear indication of their midfield superiority.

Roozendaal and Joe Boyce will be away with the Tasmanian Under 23 team, Taylor is doubtful, and Darren Martello is unavailable. Sam Moore has booted 15 goals in the the past two weeks in the Under 19s and must come under consideration for a recall, Roozendaal and Boyce in State team • Daniel Roozendaal DANIEL Roozendaal and Joe Boyce have gained selection in the Tasmanian Under 23 team to play the South Football Australian League Amateur Under 23 side to play in Adelaide this Saturday. The team has been chosen from the NTFA, NTFL and SFL competitions and will be coached by Kent Jackson. Roozendaal, who is in superb form, has been appointed vice-captain of the team. Scottsdale coach Anthony Taylor congratulated both on their players selection. "Their hard work and consistent performances • Joe Boyce have paid off. It's a great individual achievement but also reflects on us as a club. "I hope they go well," Taylor said. Winnaleah meets Ringarooma in NEFU match of the round by Stuart McCulloch WINNALEAH meets Ringarooma in the NEFU's match of the round this weekend. Both teams will go into the game full of confidence after impressive victories last week. Winnaleah snatched top spot on the ladder with a gutsy come from behind win at Lilydale while Ringarooma kicked 32 goals the hapless against Bridport. Gary Kinight relished the opportunity of playing deep in the forward line for Ringarooma, kicking nine goals and Matthew Wells was on target with seven. They will not have the same freedom this week as Winnaleah's strength all season has been their tight knit backline led by Ben McPherson. The mid-field contests will be crucial to the final result with Heath Fox and Chris Carins providing plenty of drive out of the centre for Ringarooma. However some of Winnaleah's younger midfielders have been standing up in recent weeks and Zeik and Brady Johnston Wagner ran forward to kick vital final quarter goals last week. Winnaleah will be desperate to maintain top spot on the ladder and will take the knowledge that they defeated Ringarooma the last time the two teams met. If the Magpies can close down Ringarooma's potent forwards, Liam Bessell and Scott Fenton will give them enough goals to win at home. to travels Lilydale Bridport and must be worried after surrendering three-quarter-time leads in their last two games. However they will bounce back to winning against the form undermanned Seagulls and could regain top spot on the ladder if Winnnaleah slips up. Lilydale has too many quality running players of the calibre of Drew and Thane Bardenhagen and their forwards will have plenty of supply. Leigh Betts and John Duffy will be expecting to kick bags of goals. Bridport's injury list means they have been severely undermanned in the height department.

Heath Blair has battled on gamely but will need more help and Nat Barnett must stand up. Matthew Hodgetts was forced into the ruck last week but he will be needed to martial Bridport's inexperienced defenders. The Scottsdale Crows are at home to St.Helens. While suffering some big defeats this season the Crows have been competitive in general play in recent weeks and will give themselves some chance of victory. Tony Saunders was best on the ground the last time these two teams met and Jai Whelan has been a consistent ball winner in the games he has played. However the young St.Helens team has been improving all season. They pushed ladder leaders Winnaleah up until half-time in their last home game and defeated Bridport the last time they had to travel. Shaun Cannon is strong in the air and Anthony Offer has been a good defender while players who have been in fine form in recent weeks include Jason Pyke and Brad Goodyer.

Dorset broke back in the second with Kate Coniston piling on ten goals to Magpies three, as the strong defensive pressure from the Mountney sisters Tarin and Bree brought them back into the game and they went into the half time break five up. The Magpies made changes and moved Alex Dennis from defence to attack attempting to steady their young attack, and it worked. The won the quarter and reduced the margin to three at the final break. Both teams put in a 100 per cent in a see-sawing last quarter but it was Dorset who held on to win by four. In the other match Crows took on Swifts, and jumped them early with Mel Goninon dominating the centre court. Swifts lined up differently with Ebony Davies showed her versatility playing in defence due to missing players and Swifts found some form in the second quarter to be only three goals down. In a tight third quarter Isobel Hall for Swifts played aggressively and with the classy Felicity Kettle in top form they trailed by just a goal at three quarter time. Both teams found it hard to score in a nail biting last quarter, and at full time the scores were tied at 24 all.
