Naracoorte Market Report: 29/08/2023

Naracoorte Market Report: 29/08/2023

By Tim Delany. Cattle: LWB 13 – LWY 347 – LWC 176 – OAY 3. Naracoorte agents offered a smaller number of 539 cattle which was 192 head less. There was a slight decrease in overall quality as it varied from very good to average when compared with last week. However the yarding did have some excellent heavy cows, younger cattle with cover and some well presented grown cattle within the trade run. The regular field of buyers attended not all operating fully. It was a close to unchanged cow market with the younger and grown steers selling from generally firm to a few cents dearer. Grown bulls did sell to less demand and were from 5c up to 14c/kg cheaper in places. Young steers to the trade sold from 270c to 350c, heavier steers above 400kg lwt made 264c to 310c and the younger heifers were mostly from 260c […]

Bridge Club results

By Bridging the Gap.Twenty ladies played 30 boards last week & it was a difficult decision making day for both directions! South suffered with few points & there were only 7 hands in either direction that had 25 or more combined points to confidently bid to game. Congratulations to Liz Ogilvie & Sue Hood who were N/S winners with 59.48%, followed by Sandra Haynes & Sally Macdonald who scored 54.90%. Great result for Jill Perkins & Sars Crawford winning E/W with 59.27% closely followed by Helen Edwards & Jenny Pridham on 58.44%.  In the illustrated board neither direction had an 8 card ‘fit’ in any suit.  Although E/W collectively had 22 high card points, a No Trump bid was potentially disastrous considering North’s 6 Diamonds plus E/W were Vulnerable! Bidding was tricky for both sides & consequently there were 5 different bids. Not one of the 5 bids was successful […]
