Darley have announced fees on their powerful roster of 14 stallions split between NSW and Victoria with Broadsiding set to join the team at Kelvinside in the Hunter Valley at a fee of $66,000 who has made the strongest start to a stud career this century heads the roster at $275,000 as previously announced and will be joined by his champion son Broadsiding A four-time G1 winner that was Champion 2YO and then won the Group I Golden Rose and Rosehill Guineas at three Broadsiding is the best son of Too Darn Hot in Australia has had a slight fee reduction and will drop to $110,000 Anamoe has garnered great support since retiring to stud and 127 Stakes winners along with the dams of 18 G1 winners in his first two books Darley’s roster draws further strength from the remarkable Street Cry sire line with Anamoe’s sire Street Boss standing at $66,000 in Victoria Street Boss is enjoying another banner season headlined by recent G2 Percy Sykes winner Tempted and his top class son Traffic Warden will also head to stud this spring Traffic Warden will stand at $22,000 in NSW and this eye-catching colt was a G2 winner at two and three and was defeated by a short head and a head in the G1 Sires’ Produce Stakes and G1 Golden Rose respectively Harry Angel has earned a fee increase and rises to $66,000 A World Champion Sprinter and the leading third-crop sire in the country Harry Angel is the youngest stallion in the top 10 of the General Sires Table and one of the most sought-after stallions in the country right now with a pair of Group I winners this season in Tom Kitten and Private Harry “This is an outstanding group of stallions - a world-class line-up,” said Darley’s Head of Stallions “The results they’ve achieved this year both in the yearling market and on the racetrack These fees reflect the success we've seen and have been set with breeders firmly in mind.” Too Darn Hot (GB) $275,000 (Not here last year) Darley have taken the wraps off their stallion fees for the upcoming season with exciting newcomer Broadsiding introduced at $66,000 (all fees inc GST) The four-time Group 1 winner is the first son of Too Darn Hot (Dubawi) to take up stud duty and is joined on the 14-strong roster by a combination of established names and up-and-comers Godolphin homebred Broadsiding won seven races for James Cummings and was crowned champion two-year-old after landing last season’s Champagne Stakes (Gr 1 He doubled his Group 1 tally at three with victories in the Golden Rose (Gr 1 in which he defeated fellow Darley retiree Traffic Warden to get horses like Broadsiding,” Lisa Manning Darley’s nominations manager in Victoria told ANZ Bloodstock News “He’s a complete homebred being by a stallion we stand two as a juvenile and then two more as a three-year-old Being by one of the hottest stallions in the world it’s very exciting to have him standing alongside his father.”  Manning reported that interest in Broadsiding’s services at stud has been growing in tandem with his race record “We’ve had interest throughout the last six to eight months with people asking will he be retiring this year,” she said because he’s certainly fulfilled what we hoped for by being a champion juvenile and then going on to win the Golden Rose and the Rosehill Guineas I think it’s a fair value fee for a first-season horse of his calibre.”  Broadsiding’s profile is packed with Group 1 form His achievements on the track are not only backed up by an attractive pedigree but an appealing set of physical attributes as well He’s a similar size to his own sire but I suspect he’ll mature to be a bit bigger than Too Darn Hot He’s got the same quality though; that great balance big hind quarter with a lovely action and a good head He’s very much an athlete and certainly an outstanding physical.”  Broadsiding’s addition to the Kelvinside roster means he will stand alongside his own sire in Too Darn Hot The son of Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) already has 35 stakes performers on his burgeoning roll of honour with Broadsiding joined at the head of the list by fellow Group 1 winners Fallen Angel and Hotazhell Too Darn Hot had been due to shuttle to Australia last season and stand for $110,000 but it was decided to rest him for a season with the horse back at Kelvinside and his profile only heading in one direction he will stand for an upgraded fee of $275,000 “It’s very exciting to have him back this year and it’s a real coup for us,” said Manning “He’s made the strongest start to a stud career this century Obviously he’s had a price rise since he was last in Australia Manning acknowledged that demand looks likely to far exceed supply “It’s not going to be easy to manage his book because he’s going to be very popular,” she said “At this stage he’ll be limited to 100 mares and obviously we’ll send him quite a few of our own we’re hopeful that we can help as many breeders out as possible He’s a very popular stallion but they’re not machines and we always prioritise taking care of them.”  Too Darn Hot has sired ten Australian stakes winners this season at a clip of 12.5 per cent headed by a $1.9 million colt bought by Ciaron Maher and David Redvers in 2024 Manning is hopeful the best is yet to come “To be carrying those numbers and those percentages is outstanding,” she said “He could be the next champion sire for years to come The opportunity is there and he’s started off in the right direction Hopefully he can be extremely successful over the coming few years.”  Darley’s other new recruit is the aforementioned Traffic Warden who has been added to the Kelvinside roster at $22,000 The son of Street Boss (Street Cry) won three times for the Cummings stable including the Sires’ Produce Stakes (Gr 2 He missed out on Group 1 laurels by exceedingly narrow margins first when beaten less than two lengths by Lady Of Camelot (Written Tycoon) in the Golden Slipper (Gr 1 1200m) and then going down by just a nose to Manaal (Tassort) in the Sires’ Produce (Gr 1 He also got within a short head of beating stablemate Broadsiding in the Golden Rose “Traffic Warden was a phenomenal two-year-old,” said Manning “He was a dual Group 2 winner as a two-year-old and went on to win The Run To The Rose and finished second For a little while it was in the balance which colt would be better between him and Broadsiding but Traffic Warden is a good-looking horse with a phenomenal pedigree is a four-time stakes winner-producing mare the race record and the looks to be very exciting at stud Breeders are looking for good types and precocious two-year-olds to get results Nobody will be disappointed when they see him.”  Manning added: “We’ll support both of the new recruits We don’t have the huge numbers that some people might expect We run between 150 and 180 mares and we’ve got 14 stallions on the roster One name who has already benefited from that home support is Anamoe (Street Boss) The nine-time Group 1 winner will spend his third season at a fee of $110,000 which has been trimmed fractionally from $121,000 last year Anyone breeding to Anamoe this season can do so safe in the knowledge he has two exceptionally well-bred crops already in the pipeline “He’s garnered great support,” said Manning 82 Group winners and 127 stakes winners in his first couple of seasons His first-crop are the talk among the new weanling sires and I’ve no doubt they’ll be well received at the sales that are coming up He’s an amazingly exciting horse for us and we’re very lucky to have him.”  Anamoe’s sire Street Boss (Street Cry) is still going strong at the age of 21 and has had his fee held firm despite another strong showing on the track this year with eight stakes winners to his name He heads the roster at Northwood Park in Victoria at $66,000 “Street Boss has had a phenomenal season and has had some really good “He’s been represented by the likes of Tempted and Tentyris of ours that were both good two-year-olds He’s just a very good stallion who’s very consistent which we think is great value for breeders but he certainly hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down with his progeny on the track.”  Also standing at $66,000 is shuttler Harry Angel whose fee has risen from $38,500 last year The son of British and Irish champion sire Dark Angel (Acclamation) sits in seventh on the general sires list thanks in no small part to Godolphin’s Tom Kitten landing his second Group 1 in the lucrative All-Star Mile “Harry’s always been a popular stallion,” said Manning He’s shown that he’s getting the sort of horses breeders want to produce He throws a sales type too and he will be fully subscribed as well at around 130 to 140 mares.”  Also joining the likes of Too Darn Hot and Harry Angel on shuttle runs from the northern hemisphere is Native Trail (Oasis Dream) The undefeated European champion two-year-old whose juvenile Group 1 wins in the National Stakes (Gr 1 7f) were followed by the Irish 2,000 Guineas (Gr 1 “He covered a very solid book of mares last year,” said Manning which always draws Australian breeders’ attention He’s by a stallion that they might not be particularly familiar with but it was the same with Harry Angel and it certainly worked out well in that regard He covered a full book of 130 mares last year so we’re very happy with him With it being his second season we usually do a bit of a discount so I don’t doubt that he’ll be popular again this year.” Two names not making the shuttle trip this time around are Blue Point (Shamardal) and Ghaiyyath (Dubawi) with the pair remaining at Kildangan Stud in Ireland “They’ve both had very busy seasons for the last few years so a year off won’t hurt either of them,” said Manning “That certainly doesn’t preclude them from coming back in 2026 Blue Point is doing a great job here with his first two and three-year-olds and he’s certainly held his own here with some really nice stakes horses I don’t doubt that anything they do at two and three Manning added: “We’re very lucky with the roster that we have this year it’s an exciting group with some world-class names in there but there are some really good young stallions on there who are making their names at the moment “Bivouac is one of those; he had three stakes winners from 17 runners in his first two-year-old crop so he’s certainly starting to make waves and has become an attractive option for breeders this season Then there’s stalwarts like Brazen Beau and Kermadec “Brazen Beau has been a consistently good stallion and has always produced good two-year-olds as well as Group 1 winners He doesn’t get two-year-olds as a rule but has elite horses like Montefilia and Tuvalu There’s a lot of value on the roster with regards to those sorts of horses.” We use cookies to improve your online experience By continuing to use our website we assume you are happy to allow use of these cookies Cookies that are primarily for advertising purposes

one of Darley's most important sires put the seal on a weekend in which every light turned blue Kildangan Stud resident Night Of Thunder should play a big part in the operation for the next decade or so and his daughter Desert Flower who showed a telling blend of class and determination in landing Sunday's Betfred 2,000 Guineas was one of those who had elevated his 2025 fee to a career high of €150,000 The chestnut was already one of Night Of Thunder's six Group 1 winners following her consummate performance over the same Rowley Mile course and distance in last October's Fillies' Mile It was on this very weekend 11 years ago that Night Of Thunder caused a 40-1 Guineas upset in the colours of Sheikh Mohammed's associate when he thwarted another of the present guard of top sires before landing the following season's Lockinge Stakes in Godolphin's blue silks he made a stunning impact as a freshman in 2019 and his progeny have continued to prove popular in the ring ensuring the quality of his book continues to rise accordingly Last year saw Night Of Thunder produce his first proper major-league colt in Economics who landed the Irish Champion Stakes and is expected to take high rank again he is in pole position to one day assume the mantle of his illustrious father Dubawi who is now 23 and has maintained the sireline of Sheikh Mohammed's beloved Dubai Millennium Night Of Thunder is also the sire of the ill-fated sprinting mare Highfield Princess while the Simon and Ed Crisford-trained Choisya joined the top category only last month in the Jenny Wiley Stakes at Keeneland The sire is now up to 63 international stakes winners worldwide as he was also responsible for the Juddmonte-bred Sunly who made it two from two with a tidy victory in the Listed Prix de la Seine at Longchamp on Sunday and comes from a typically strong family one which includes St Leger hero Logician and Group 1 winner Cityscape Desert Flower was the third of Godolphin's international quartet of stars to have also been a homebred She is the second foal out of Promising Run a smart Hard Spun mare trained by Saeed bin Suroor who won the Rockfel Stakes as a juvenile Although well beaten by Minding in the Fillies' Mile herself she went on to land a collection of Group races around the world was by Dubawi and won the 2023 Solario Stakes at Sandown but has not been seen since his two-year-old career Those are the only two offspring she has produced to date with her most recent cover being by Ghaiyyath Her dam Aviacion won the Group 1 Grande Premio Zelia Gonzaga Peixoto de

sitting two points behind the two local rivals face off against each other in the final round in a two-dayer While East Ballarat and Golden Point remain alive in the hunt for finals they would need outright wins and other results to go their way It means a virtual elimination final between Darley and Bacchus Marsh in the final round Lions coach Nathan Yates said while they would rather already have secured their spot in the top four He said if they miss out on finals they only have themselves to blame “It is how it has panned out,” he said “We were able to get the win [on Saturday] and have a few results go our way keep winning and the results will take care of itself “We dropped some games earlier in the season “It will add a bit more spice to a normally spicy affair.” The Lions have been focusing on what they can and on Saturday The Lions batted first and made 8-241 from their overs Sajith Dissanayaka made 90 at the top of the order Yates said they felt that score was above bar Brown Hill started well with the bat and were 0-70 It never recovered and was bowled out for 145 Dilan Chandima took four wickets for the Lions Yates said the focus this week was to just continue on the form they had been showing “Post-Christmas we have been putting the runs on the board,” he said “We want to continue with that and hopefully put a score on the board and defend it.” the Bulls had the chance to lock in a top four spot against Buninyong Jayden White-Powell top scored with 37 at the top of the order At 3-150 the Bunnies were on top before the wickets started to fall Buninyong

career peak in 2024 Tatt’s Tiara and Doomben 10,000 at Group 1 level But this Saturday’s $3m Group 1 Darley Champions Sprint (1200m) presents possibly her biggest challenge of the year The daughter of Pride Of Dubai is backing up after winning the Russell Balding Stakes (1300m) at Rosehill for the second year in a row with the Darley Champions Sprint to be her first start in Melbourne start since finishing fourth in the Group 1 William Reid Stakes (1200m) in March Her only unplaced run since then was also a fourth placing with her worst finish in eight starts since that Perth race being a third placing in the Group 2 Premiere Stakes (1200m) at Randwick Those eight most recent runs races were all run the clockwise direction Her William Reid fourth followed a fifth in the Yulong Newmarket Handicap (1200m) and a fourth placing in the Black Caviar Lightning (1000m) which were her first starts since a fifth placing in last year’s Darley Champions Stakes Bella Nipotina has not placed in Melbourne since her second placing in last year’s William Reid Stakes while her maiden Group 1 win in the 2022 Manikato Stakes was her last win in Victoria She ran to a Timeform rating of 120 that day the same number she posted when second to Imperatriz in last year’s William Reid Stakes which are her equal highest figures recorded in Melbourne Bella Nipotina went 123 at her past two starts while her five next-best Timeform runs were right-handed figures she returned in this year’s Newmarket Handicap and the Lightning In 10 starts at Australia’s most famous racetrack her best result is a second placing in the Inglis Dash when trained by Tom Dabernig and Ben Hayes That previous best Flemington rating would have been good enough to win only one Darley Champions Sprint since it took up residence on Final Day in 2007 – the 2022 edition that Roch ‘N’ Horse won in 116 The next-lowest winning rating is Swick’s 120 with the average winning rating required since 2007 being 125.35 The Victoria Racing Club acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land on which it is based the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin nation US singer Daya and Australian DJ Darley chat

Down Under for the first time Darley a versatile DJ with roots in rock and house music has been making waves on the electronic scene with a fresh take that marries high-energy beats with an indie edge Daya and Darley share a dedication to their craft and a deep respect for each other’s work In a flowing conversation facilitated by Tone Deaf Daya and Darley open up about their musical journeys and the thrill of performing at Palm Tree Festival together Daya and Darley are both a force to be reckoned with each set to bring a unique voice and talent to the Palm Tree Music Festival stage It’s also clear that these two women are shaping the future of music More information about Palm Tree Music Festival 2024 can be found here Your daily dose of everything happening in Australian music and globally A post shared by Palm Tree Music Festival (@palmtreefestival) I love finding out who other artists are listening to it’s been Stevie Wonder – he’s just been my go-to for everything my Spotify Wrapped showed I was in the top 0.01% of his listeners I think his music has this magic where it makes everything feel lighter Daya: We’re in a secret Stevie Wonder fan club now His music just hits differently; it’s the perfect vibe what got you into music in the first place and later found my way to singing around age 13 or 14 but I always loved the process and the performance venues would ask me to DJ to keep the crowd going And do you bring any of that rock influence into your sets Darley: Sometimes the rock vibe sneaks into my DJ sets I still play in a few bands – psychedelic rock my house and electronic sets are all about high-energy beats There’s something about switching it up onstage that keeps things exciting And I’ve got my two dancers with me – it’s going to be high-energy and so fun I want to bring a bit of everything for my first Australian crowd Tone Deaf: Both of you have mentioned being the only women on some of these lineups but I would love it more if there were more women When you’re the only woman in the lineup or backstage But I try to focus on the positive impact that visibility can have I make a point to bring as many women on my team as possible It makes such a difference to have that energy and representation it’s so empowering to be part of a lineup with you I think the crowd sees it and feels it too It’s really exciting to be part of this shift This is my first time performing in Australia I’ve heard Aussie crowds are amazing – so engaged and energetic It’s going to be such a high-energy experience I can’t wait to watch your set and see the crowd vibe with you Are you planning to play any of your own tracks at Palm Tree I’m working on bringing more of my own music into my sets I want to show the audience a bit more of myself Right now I’m playing a lot of others’ music but my dream is to make my set mostly my own Creating a set that’s uniquely you is such a rewarding feeling I think it’ll be amazing to see you own that stage with your tracks Tone Deaf: What’s one festival ritual or post-show activity you both have But not many people here know what they are I only recently realised it’s not everywhere so we should definitely do one in Melbourne We’ll bring the pickleback magic to Palm Tree I’ll introduce you to a few Melbourne spots where we can toast with a proper Aussie drink or two Tone Deaf: Sounds like you two have a whole post-show adventure planned You’ve mentioned such a supportive vibe in your music journeys Do you each have any advice for women looking to make it in this industry Daya: I’d say trust your instincts and build a support system I feel so lucky to work with people who understand and respect my vision and I’d encourage any woman in music to seek that out surround yourself with people who genuinely have your back It’s so empowering to see other women in music finding their place and owning it untick to unsubscribe from any newsletters below: Editors' Note: Many Fast News

Sam Bullard, Darley's director of stallions, said: “To have three stallions of the calibre of Blue Point, Night Of Thunder and Too Darn Hot is a source of immense pride to the whole team, particularly as they are sons of our own breed-shapers Dubawi and Shamardal. “Our roster provides breeders with a wealth of choices for their mares, from our proven sires to exciting young stallions, and we look forward to showing them in the coming months.” as highlighted by Sam Cocks on his dismissal as its finals hopes disappeared with a loss to Ballarat-Redan at Russells Square on Saturday Picture by Lachlan Bence.Darley has a lot to thank Buninyong for in the Ballarat Cricket Association's firsts competition Sudoku and TriviaAll articles from the other regional websites in your areaContinueBuninyong played the key role in opening the door to finals for Darley by upsetting Bacchus Marsh by three wickets at Buninyong on Saturday The Bulls had an opportunity to lock away a semi-final berth but could not deliver in a one-dayer in the penultimate home and away round of the season This allowed Darley to jump two spots on the ladder to fifth - overtaking East Ballarat and Golden Point - with a comfortable win over Brown Hill to close within two points of Bacchus Marsh This sets up a grandstand finish to the regular season with Bacchus Marsh meeting cross-town rival Darley in a two-day clash at Darley Park to decide which fills fourth and plays finals losses for East Ballarat and Golden Point to Ballarat-Redan and Mt Clear respectively ended their finals hopes with Ballarat-Redan and Wendouree next after they scrambled home in tight contests Buninyong laid the foundation to just its third win of the season by keeping Bacchus Marsh to 8-177 but no one went to a big total against a disciplined attack 1 six) put the Bunnies on track to chase down the total and needing only eight run the contest tightened up Matt Crea finished with 3-19 off 10 overs for the Marsh with 3.2 overs to spare at the Eastern Oval While the Mounties had plenty of deliveries and wickets in hand it still tightened up a little more than it looked like it would be when they were coasting at 2-189 gave Mt Clear a firm grip on the game with a second wicket stand of 100 Mohomend Feshal captured 3-26 and James Lewis 3-33 Point started well enough with the bat to be going at five runs an over at the half-way mark of its 50 overs but then the breaks were applied as it lost 4-27 White to reignite the innings with a 65-run stand and give Mt Clear something to chase Akshay Ballal continued his fine season for Mt Clear with 4-17 off 10 overs crawled over the line against East Ballarat but there were plenty of nerves late in the Two Swords' run chase East was in real trouble at 5-117 before Kyle Ettridge came to the rescue with an unbeaten 65 (4 fours Zac Jenkins again played an anchor role for Ballarat-Redan with 93 (11 fours) when they lost 3-10 with still 70 runs required East suddenly had an opening Jenkins remained the stumbling block though while Michael Hayes made an invaluable 28no ( 5 fours) Jenkins' departure with still 10 runs needed again changed the complexion of the game and runs dried up East Ballarat gave up 35 wides for the innings -

seven of those at Group level - with the best being four-time Group 1 scorer Broadsiding His results for the 2023-24 season saw Too Darn Hot crowned the 2024 Champion First Season Sire a category he led both in earnings and by amount of winners in a display of dominance rarely seen He also finished runner-up on the leading Australian two-year-old sires list that year as his first crop results saw him set an earnings record for any first-season sire in history at a season-ending A$4,164,810 Too Darn Hot's spectacular run of results has continued into his second season of progeny in Australia with the stallion currently a clear leader in the second-season sire's table and just over A$300,000 in prize-money away from being inside the top ten in the general sires' list where he currently resides in 14th position The 2024-25 season has seen Too Darn Hot sire an incredible nine new stakes winners in Australia: Perspiration The latter six of those nine are winners at Group level to boot "It's extremely exciting to have him back," Darley Australia's head of sales Alistair Pulford told ANZ Bloodstock News "When it was announced last year that he wasn't coming back it was very much that they wanted to give him a year off and it wasn't a permanent decision "We're very grateful to the team at Darley UK and to Watership Down Stud that they've agreed to shuttle him again because he's just such a good stallion and to have him here to cover not just Godolphin's mares Too Darn Hot's pedigree is one of pure class Bred by Lord and Lady Lloyd Webber's Watership Down Stud both of which are by Group 1 winners and out of Group 1-winning mares themselves "He's a Group 1 champion by a Group 1 champion and all four of his grandparents are Group 1 winners," Pulford said "You just don't see pedigrees like that anywhere you've got Dubawi and Galileo and a few others but I haven't found another stallion where all four of their grandparents are Group 1 winners so you just don't see horses like him very often and he's living up to those expectations in both hemispheres With Inglis Easter having been conducted at the weekend there was a rumour going around breeders at Riverside that Too Darn Hot could be on his way back to Australia in 2025 and Pulford admitted the phones at Darley Australia are expected to be busy with just a limited book set to be offered "We've been alerting our best clients to the fact that he was likely to come back and with today's confirmation we've had phone calls in the few minutes after the post about it went out," Pulford said "We're looking forward to the next few days and I know the quality of mares that he is going to get is just going to be unbelievable "We are very conservative in our stallion management and he's in the midst of covering a large number of mares in the UK and one thing for sure is that he will cover a very limited book of mares here." Darley's founder and owner Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum could have been forgiven for deciding to keep Too Darn Hot in the UK given he has raised himself up to a fee of £90,000 (approx A$189,740) at Dalham Hall Stud in Newmarket and sired 13 individual stakes winners in the northern hemisphere already – including Group 1 winners Fallen Angel and Hotazhell – however Pulford rightly pointed out that is not a route His Highness has taken in the past "He's never shied away from sending his very best stallions and most valuable horses here in the 22 years we've been in existence," Pulford said "He never shied from sending Bernardini down when he was the hottest horse in America Medaglia D'Oro who he invested a lot of money in after his first unbelievable crop in America and when New Approach won the Derby he was on the shuttle books so his commitment to Australia has never wavered and that's how you create legacies "You have to be committed and Too Darn Hot has a chance to create a legacy for himself and for everyone that is involved with him."

The Devils announced on Friday that McCormack had made the decision to step away after five years at the club. “After an incredible five years, Di has decided that it is time to step away to spend more quality time with her family,” the club said on social media. “We are so eternally grateful for all the work she has put into the club over the last several years and the evident progress we have achieved under her leadership. “Multiple finals appearances, grand finals and BFNL league awards are only a few of the accolades we were lucky to have under Di’s guidance. “Although we are so sad to see her go, we are thankful for the last seven years and wish her well for her much deserved time with family.” McCormack joined the Devils after having coached Rupertswood to a premiership in the Riddell District Netball League in 2019. With her came across a number of players who have been the core of the A-grade side in recent years. The club’s A-grade side has played in three straight grand finals, having never made an A-grade grand final before in the Ballarat league. The club’s under-19s also made three straight grand finals, winning the last two with many of those players progressing through the ranks. All the A-grade squad has signed on for this year. On the Devils post, McCormack said she was a little heartbroken having made the decision. “Leaving Darley has been one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make,”she said. “I will always be a Devil at heart. “My years at Darley have been the most rewarding and cherished of my entire netball coaching journey, and I am filled with so much love and gratitude for everything this club has given me. “I am incredibly proud of all we’ve achieved together as a club over the past five years. It wasn’t just me who built such a fantastic netball program. It was the incredible group of girls who trusted me as their coach, the support of an amazing committee who always had my back, and the collective efforts of so many.” “I will miss Darley more than words can express. You are an incredible, talented, and sensational group, and it has been an honor to coach you.” The Devils haven’t announced McCormack’s replacement.

She said she was happy with the overall depth of the club having won multiple lower grade premierships in recent season "The A's we've been so close the past three years fingers crossed we can get across the line this year."

particularly with the ball - before taking on a semi-final Ballarat-Redan will feel satisfied with having second place locked away already but the thought of finishing on top is sure to have it right on its game The Two Swords need outright points to make this a possibility it is out of their hands -

The Devils sharpshooter notched up her 300th career goal in the match. Photos: DARLEY FNC DARLEY’S Kim Bessell has notched up plenty of personal accolades and milestones during her football career. But it’s team success and premierships that the Devils’ goalkicking machine ultimately craves. The 36-year-old hit another milestone in last Sunday’s 70-point win over East Point when she booted her 300th career goal. Bessell’s big moment arrived in the third quarter with what was her third of three goals for the game. She duly moved further up the ground in a bid to aid her teammate Maddy Clark, who is remarkably also closing in on 300 career goals, and is expected to tick off the milestone soon – potentially in her 150th game against Bacchus Marsh in round five on 26 April. For Bessell, her 300th goal was a poignant reminder of how far Darley’s women’s football program has come. While the Devils are chasing a premiership three-peat in 2025, times weren’t always so rosy. “I’m pretty rapt considering the first couple of years, Darley really struggled to even kick a couple of goals a game,” Bessell said. “We were getting smashed by 244 points in some games. “I think I won the leading goalkicker award in one of those early seasons and I only kicked four goals. “The club has definitely come a long way, which is really nice. “What is nice is we have another one of our girls, Maddy Clarke, who is close to her 300th goal as well. “She is on 293. It’s pretty good times at Devil-land at the moment.” Bessell’s 300 goals have come from just 89 games, at a healthy average of 3.4 per game. Not a bad return for a defender-turned-forward. She cracked the ton in 2023, booting an astonishing 122 for the season as the Devils charged to a stirring premiership win. For all her goalkicking exploits, Bessell admits it is team success and camaraderie that ultimately drive her. “The team is doing well, which is my main priority,” she said. “I would rather team success over individual success any day of the week. “I don’t mind kicking a few snags, but obviously I couldn’t do it without the delivery from my teammates. “I’m just finishing their good work.” The Devils have again started the season strongly, sitting atop the ladder at 3-0 as one of only two undefeated teams. They will play Carisbrook this weekend, before a round five showdown against similarly unbeaten Bacchus Marsh. In a sign that Darley and Redan will have some fierce opposition, the Cobras are yet to concede a goal in three games this season while averaging 105 points per game. But Bessell can feel a ‘strong as ever’ vibe around Darley as the black and white set their sights on a crack at three straight flags. “I love playing footy and I love being around the girls – it’s a really great team,” she said. “Darley is a great club to be around. “It certainly feels like a home away from home. “We have won the last two flags and would love to get a third. “There is nothing like winning a premiership. “It’s a feeling I’ve felt twice and something I would love to feel again.” More sport on page 29.

but an inspired late spell from Joshua Calvitto turned the game in favour of the hosts as the Griffins fell from 6-186 to be all out on the second last ball of the innings Ballarat-Redan produced its best performance of the season with a strong win over top-team Mount Clear Zac Jenkins 68 and a run-a-ball 53 from Jack Harwood gave the Two Swords a solid 7-211 from the 50 overs They always seemed to be in control with the ball as well after both Akshay Ballal (66) and Joel Moriarty (54) fell Chris Egan led the way with the ball for the Two Swords with 4-29 getting through the defences of Ballal which sparked the collapse as Mount Clear was bundled out for 186 The other result saw a big win for Wendouree over Golden Point cementing the Red Caps position inside the top four The game was pretty much put to bed by a 127-run opening partnership between Leigh Lorenzen (91) and Cole Roscholer (70) which set the Red Caps on their way It was the pace barrage early that proved the downfall

But as the demand for simpler, more accessible solutions surges, the company finds itself in unfamiliar territory: taking on the likes of Canva. At Web Summit, The Drum gets the inside track on its strategic shift. This pivot is a bold departure from Adobe’s traditional positioning. For years, Adobe tools have been the gold standard for creatives, but they’ve also been seen as intimidating or out of reach for the everyday user. Adobe Express is designed to change that. “We’re taking on perceptions head-on,” Darley said. “When people think Adobe, they think high-end, professional tools. Express is about breaking down those barriers and showing that creativity doesn’t have to be complex – or expensive.” Adobe isn’t rushing the rollout of Express. The product has been carefully re-platformed over the last year, with a mobile launch earlier this year and ongoing updates dropping weekly. “We’ve focused on product-market fit first,” Darley said. “Now it’s about driving awareness and preference.” Despite its strengths, Adobe Express faces significant challenges. Breaking into a market dominated by Canva requires more than a great product – it requires a cultural shift in how people view Adobe. The company’s dual strategy of expanding into consumer markets while maintaining its enterprise stronghold will test its ability to balance accessibility with the professional-grade reputation that has defined it. For Darley, the stakes couldn’t be higher. “This is the biggest thing we’re doing,” she said. “Express isn’t just a product; it’s a strategic move to redefine how people see Adobe.” Whether it’s enough to unseat Canva remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Adobe isn’t content to sit on its laurels. With Express, it’s making a play for the future of creativity – and that means taking some risks. Catch up on the most important stories of the day, curated by our editorial team. Stay up to date with a curated digest of the most important marketing stories and expert insights from our global team. Learn how to pitch to our editors and get published on The Drum. The question now isn’t whether Adobe can match Canva’s ease of use, but whether it can convince the world that Adobe Express is the tool to unlock creativity – no matter who you are or where you’re starting from. As Darley puts it, “This isn’t about replacing anyone. It’s about expanding the creative community – and that’s a fight worth taking on.” Rebecca Hicks led the way under the net for Darley she will be the one plotting their demise in the opposition's attack Sudoku and TriviaAll articles from the other regional websites in your areaContinueHicks' signature at Sunbury from Darley was the biggest off-season move in the Ballarat Football Netball League in season 2024 The competition's leading goal shooter decided the time was right to make a move and is now one win away from a much wanted premiership and it just so happens she'll have to get through her old teammates to do it "It's pretty special for me to be in another grand final it was quite daunting for me to change clubs but we've worked so hard to get where we are I'm definitely stoked we have made it through." Hicks was loathe to go into too many details about the move except to say it was the right decision for her and her family to look for a new home "It was just something for me at the time mentally I wasn't in a great place," she said "So I made a number of decisions made on my personal issues I definitely found that I needed something new for my personal self I'm so glad I've been able to be a part of it."
