Giants women run Willetton close but ultimately fall short
Goldfields Giants women's coach Jaymi Worthington has challenged her players to become a more well-rounded group capable of better sharing the load, following Saturday's 80-69 NBL1 West loss against Willetton. The Giants pushed the fifth-placed visitors for most of the game but with the scores level at three-quarter-time, the Tigers took charge in the run home, 21-10. It was the local squad's seventh consecutive defeat after Nici Gilday (24 points; four rebounds; five assists; one blocked shot) and Erin Antosh (21 points; 13 rebounds; three assists) carried the vast majority of the workload. Alongside the team's 80 points, Willetton's starters also racked-up a combined 29 rebounds and 19 assists. With a 2-10 win-loss record, the Giants are tied with the South West Slammers, but hold 11th spot on percentage. Goldfields led by a point at quarter-time and by six points during the second period. 'Our bench players contributed quite well, but we need at least one other person to step-up and score in double-figures,' Worthington said. 'They (Willetton) had four players (score) in double-figures and we needed that (because) their defence obviously started to double-team Nici and Erin. 'It means we need other players to go to in those circumstances. 'In those last five minutes, from a coaching perspective as well, we needed to adjust quicker by making sure we had other options. 'The bottom line is that we need other players to step-up and spread the scoring more.' Goldfields remain three games outside the top-eight. 'Willetton have a very strong team and it's a skill, learning how to win,' Worthington said. 'That's all it is — having that belief that we can (beat top sides). 'But the reality was that Willetton were able to convert and close-out the game. 'I feel we're on the cusp of that, but we just need to keep pushing and getting better.' Ladder Cougars (11-0); Senators (9-2); Redbacks (9-3); Eagles (7-3); Tigers (7-4); Magic (7-6); Flames (5-5); Lightning (5-6); Hawks (4-6); Wolves (3-8); Giants (2-10); Slammers (2-10); Suns (1-9).

Fast-tracked land releases and financial incentives offer reward to buyers
First-home buyers have a golden window of opportunity to maximise government incentives before June 30 this year with two new southeast Queensland communities making it easier than ever to take the first step onto the property ladder. The state government's $30,000 first homeowner grant reverts to only $15,000 from July 1 while new stamp duty concessions that started on May 1 have created a possible once-in-a-lifetime window for buyers. The looming deadline comes as developer Lennium Group fast-tracks land releases at two major communities – Highland Walloon in Ipswich's western growth corridor and Lilywood Landings in the new city of Waraba, formerly known as Caboolture West – to help first-home buyers secure land and finalise building contracts before the deadline. Lennium development manager Ian Worthington said May and June 2025 would be golden months for any first-home buyer looking to build and urged people to move quickly. 'This is a rare moment for first-home buyers, and both Highland Walloon and Lilywood Landings offer the chance to take full advantage of multiple government incentives,' he said. 'The difference an extra $15,000 can make is huge. 'It could pay for upgrades, landscaping, or even help reduce your mortgage – but the clock is ticking. 'If you're serious about buying, now is the time to secure land, line up your builder and get your building contract signed before June 30.' Construction is well under way at Highland Walloon and the first home and land packages are officially launching on Saturday, offering some of the most affordable new home options in southeast Queensland. For example, the Carlton 164 by Bold Living is priced at just under $640,000 and features four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a double garage on a block covering 420sq m. Perched in the elevated hilltops of Walloon, the new masterplanned community has an average lot size of almost 500sq m. Meanwhile in the Moreton Bay region, Lilywood Landings has become one of southeast Queensland's fastest-selling new communities. Located at the gateway to Waraba, the first 150 lots sold out quickly and early buyers have now settled and started to build. Mr Worthington urged first-home buyers to register their interest in Lilywood Landings ahead of an upcoming land release prior to the change in the government grant. 'At both Highland Walloon and Lilywood Landings, we're expecting strong interest from first-home buyers who see the value of locking in a home now, rather than missing out on an extra $15,000,' he said. 'These are two of the most exciting new communities in southeast Queensland, offering incredible value and lifestyle in high-growth areas. 'We've designed both communities with first-home buyers in mind, focusing on affordability, an abundance of green spaces, and connectivity to everyday services. 'Whether you're looking for a peaceful, elevated setting like Highland Walloon or the energy and opportunity of a future city like Waraba, there's something special on offer.' Metricon Queensland and northern NSW state sales manager Josh Darling said Highland Walloon offered home buyers a chance to build in a stunning location with larger, affordable lots and breathtaking views. 'With the first stage launching now, it will be the perfect opportunity for first-home buyers to take advantage of the new stamp duty exemptions and secure the $30,000 grant before it expires on June 30,' he said. LILYWOOD LANDINGS Features: First masterplanned project within the new suburb of Lilywood in Waraba, which is to be home to 70,000 residents Sales centre: 4 Merryvale Circuit, Lilywood, open daily, 10am-4pm Contact: 1300 766 616 More info: HIGHLAND WALLOON Features: Masterplanned community for more than 900 lots with traditional-styled larger lots Location: 197 Taylors Rd, Walloon Contact: 1300 116 455 More info:

Successful weekend for the 48th annual Spirit of Vincennes Rendezvous
VINCENNES, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — The mostly dry weather and nice temperatures made for a successful weekend for the 48th annual Spirit of Vincennes Rendezvous. Hundreds of people gathered at the historical tradition with multiple time periods being reenacted, including the Revolutionary War. Along with reenactments, there were colonial battles and tactical demonstrations for the audience to watch and learn from. Reenactors came from all across the states including the Chicago area, and the upper peninsula of Michigan. One reenactor states how the Vincennes Rendezvous has been a part of their family's traditions. 'My dad started reenacting when he was 17 years old. He was at the very first Rendezvous, and I was in the Rendezvous as an infant,' said Walter Hast, a reenactor from Grand Rapids, Michigan. 'Now, I'm here as a field commander, representing Worthington's company of the Illinois regiment who fought and took Vincennes.' The event occurs every Memorial Day Weekend, so mark those calendars for May 2026. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
