Terrigal Avoca have a huge Panthers Day planned in their last home game of the season this Saturday against struggling Nelson Bay. AFL 300-gamer Drew Petrie, a very good friend of Panthers stalwart Matthew Shortal, will make a guest appear- ance for the Panthers, a great promotion for the local game and a move that will result in a great crowd at Hylton Moore Oval. Panthers coach Chris Bishop has his men in simply superb form and will use this week to fine-tune his squad before the Panthers finish the season at Hillsborough and then Newcastle No.1 Sportsground against Cardiff and Newcastle City respectively. Nelson Bay, coming off the Bye, have a huge task in front of them, with along trip as well as facing up to the rampant Panthers 22. In a season in which coach Sean McGrath has almost no opportunity to field a consistent 22, the performances of ruckman Billy Barton, backline general Joel Erickson and star follower Jayden Rymer have been the shining lights of an otherwise disappointing and tough season at Dick Burwell Oval. Killarney Vale, after a big win over Warners Bay last Saturday, have another huge day at Adelaide St Oval when they host a very confident Newcastle City. Coach Scott Reed still has an eye on qualifying in fifth place for the Finals series, with Josh Mifsud, ruck Tim Oosterhoff and Brendan Lewis in all excellent form. Oosterhoff rates burly City ruckman Cam Keast as his toughest opponent, meaning this Saturday’s ruck duel will be a beauty. Aidan Watling is developing rapidly, one of a bevy of talented City youngsters including Max Quinlan and Reed Huisstede. Ethan Durbridge, Mac O’Malley and Cade Triffitt are all playing very consistent footy, and key forward Patrick Gillingham is simply in career-best form, com- ing off twelve goals last week. Singleton commence their final two-game home set (before a last round bye) against a Gosford side that are one win away from qualifying for the Finals series. Both teams struggled away last week and will want to re-focus leading into August. Roosters stars Sam Brasington and Andrew Scott lead a Sin- gleton side that are safely in the finals but need to keep winning to ensure a fourth or fifth placed finish and a potential first semi-final against Warners Bay. Gosford, badly missing Adam Lyons, must win one game in the next two weeks or else they face a possible sudden-death last home and away game at Adcock Park against Wyong Lakes. The Tigers need to focus, and not rely on Scott Burkinshaw, Alex Remy, Josh Barty and Daniel White if they are make the finals in their first year back in the Black Diamond Cup. Maitland host Cardiff at Max McMahon Oval This Weeks Broadcast match with the Saints looking for some solid performances for the rest of the season to build toward a more successful Terrigal Avoca vs Nelson Bay 2019. Mitch Greaves, Riley Newstead, Andrew Wilmot and Dustin Spriggs have been most consistent for the Watch the match live, or on replay at: Saints. Cardiff, who finish the season at home against Terrigal Avoca then Warners Bay, still have an eye on the www.bdafl.com.au Minor Premiership and subsequent week off. The Hawks have stars all over the ground, with a back six led by Zac Metcalfe, a versatile forward line featuring Lachlan Price, Jack Lennon and Josh Murphy and pure class in the midfield, led by Simon O’Brien, Marcus DeLeur, reigning Elliott Davey Medallist Tom Yensch and Lennon when he rotates through the midfield. Warners Bay were disappointed with their performance at Adelaide St last week and will look to their next two games against the Dockers then Maitland in a bid to steady the ship before a huge last-round fixture against fierce rivals Cardiff in the last-ever Hawks home at Hillsborough . The expected return of SOCIAL MEDIA Ben Hunter (work), Jack Hardman (unavailable) and tyro ruckman Tom McDonell (illness) will give the Bulldogs a full strength squad to choose from. Jake Roach will use the next three weeks to gain full fitness after a long-term quad injury hampered his 2018 season, whilst key forward Kayne Gibbs will need to perform against the Dockers in his bid to be cherry-ripe for the finals. The Dockers are still struggling to field the same 22 each week as they are playing purely for pride for the rest of the season. The return of Damon Tually and Daniel Zuzek will be important for Tom Croft’s men, as will the consistency of Oliver Bunny, who has produced a very solid Cup season for the w w w. b d a fl . co m . a u Dockers. Wyong Lakes have the bye. In the GE Womens Competition, Port Stephens are away to Terrigal Avoca; Killarney Vale host the Newcastle City Novas; Warners Bay head to Passage Road to play The Entrance Bateau Bay; Wallsend-West Newcastle host Wyong Lakes; undefeated Nelson Bay play second-placed Newcastle City Stars, with both teams struggling with several serious injuries; Maitland host Cardiff; Singleton are at home to Gosford; and Muswellbrook visit Lake Macquarie. In the Black Diamond Plate, Newcastle City are away to Killarney Vale, Maitland host Cardiff, Singleton host Gosford, Muswellbrook are away to Lake Macquarie, Terrigal Avoca host Nelson Bay, Warners Bay are away to The Entrance Bateau Bay and Wyong Lakes are away to Wallsend-West Black Diamond AFL @bdafl bdafl Newcastle.

  • Measuring Success of Active Saltmarsh Restoration in Tuggerah Lakes
    MEASURING SUCCESS OF ACTIVE SALTMARSH RESTORATION IN TUGGERAH LAKES P Laegdsgaard 1, N McGaharan 2 1Umwelt, Australia, Teralba, NSW 2Wyong Shire Council, Wyong, NSW Abstract As part of the Tuggerah Lakes Estuary Management Plan, Wyong Council identified specific areas for re-establishment of saltmarsh to the shores of the Tuggerah Lakes Estuary. These locations were highly modified and elevated above the water level of the lake. In Tuggerah Lakes the minimal tidal exchange combined with other impacts such as mowing and trampling inhibit the expansion any saltmarsh present. Restoration activities at these sites consisted of excavation to re-grade the foreshore area to reclaim natural hydrological processes suitable for saltmarsh establishment. This was followed by a replanting program using tube-stock and transplantation of salvaged saltmarsh species. It was considered important to establish the success of the restoration activities through a scientifically rigorous monitoring program and an adaptive management approach to the staggered restoration timeframe. It was initially predicted that, with regular watering of newly established saltmarsh with saline/brackish water, recovery could be achieved within 12 to 24 months of planting. Monitoring results showed this was not achieved due to low survivorship of tubestock in the low shore and slow expansion of saltmarsh in the upper shore. This has been linked to lack of regular tidal influence and fluctuating lake levels limiting the rapid expansion of the newly established saltmarsh in the Tuggerah Lakes estuary. It is now evident that rehabilitation to a level of reference sites has been achieved in sites that have had three and a half years of recovery time.

  • Systematic Conservation Assessments for Marine Protected Areas in New South Wales, Australia
    This file is part of the following reference: Breen, Daniel A. (2007) Systematic conservation assessments for marine protected areas in New South Wales, Australia. PhD thesis, James Cook University. Access to this file is available from: http://eprints.jcu.edu.au/2039 Hawkesbury Shelf assessment 7 MPA assessment of the Hawkesbury Shelf bioregion 7.1 Introduction The NSW Marine Parks Authority aims to establish and manage a comprehensive, adequate and representative system of marine protected areas (MPAs) to help conserve marine biodiversity and maintain marine ecosystem processes (NSW Marine Parks Authority 2001). The Hawkesbury Shelf bioregional assessment is one of several projects to systematically assess broad scale patterns of biodiversity within each of five NSW marine bioregions and identify where additional MPAs may be required (Figure 7.1). This chapter summarises the broad scale information and methods used to identify some options for new MPAs on the basis of ecological criteria alone. Possible areas for large, multiple use marine parks are identified and important locations and conservation values within each are described (Section 7.5 and Appendix 3). Given the uncertainty involved in assessing biodiversity and the complex issues involved, a strong emphasis is placed on presenting information and methods to examine a range of options. A separate selection process is now required for more detailed site assessments, consultation with communities and consideration of social, economic and cultural values. The information, criteria and methods applied here should also assist in ongoing assessment, selection, and management of MPAs and in other strategies to conserve marine ecosystems in NSW. 7.2 Geographic extent The Hawkesbury Shelf bioregion was defined in the Interim Marine and Coastal Regionalisation of Australia (IMCRA 1998) from recommendations provided by Pollard et al.
