More woe for Reds
20 Mar 2012
Reds winger Digby Ioane has been suspended for five weeks for a dangerous tackle in their match against the Sharks.
Ioane tip-tackled Sharks flanker Marcell Coetzee, and while he was yellow carded for the offence, the citing commissioner decided the incident warranted further inspection.
Two previous disciplinary matters relating to dangerous tackles in 2008 counted against Ioane, who will be sidelined until the Reds’ round nine clash with the Blues in Auckland. The ban translates into four missed games, given the Reds have a bye in round eight.

yip, no consistency whatsoever. That said, how the TJ didn’t call a red, or even worse, how the ref didn’t spot it (it happened right on front of him) still beggars belief.

see the latest entrant into the south african darwin awards… known as The Dawies just booked his ticket to the big show…
Johannesburg – A Johannesburg skateboarder died when he collided with a truck on the Franschhoek pass in the Western Cape on Monday, paramedics said.
ER24 spokesperson Andre Visser said the 28-year-old sustained fatal injuries to his abdomen, chest and head and was declared dead at the scene.
He had apparently gone to the Boland town specifically for the ride.
“He was being followed by a friend in a car during his descent. Upon entering a sharp bend, the skateboarder ran into a truck coming up the hill.”
The driver of the truck was not injured, Visser said.

Hehehe cereal offender…of the snap, crackle and pop variety?
5 weeks seem harsh but from memory he did it and got a suspension just to do it again in his comeback match. Slow learner it seems.
Having said that, in the Rebels/Cheetah game a tip tackle slipped through without even a penalty in the game. Cheetahs were protesting but both the ref and his sidekick ‘had something in their eye’ at that exact same moment…

It’s horrible, actually. But there have been a number of violent “service delivery” protests in the past week or so, many of them with no clearly defined demands or reasons for protesting, and no clearly defined community leader.
Some claim there might be more sinister reasons behind it.

Indeed.
Something is afoot.
Its clearly an ANC plot.
Of these people have issues they should do what white folk do and write disgruntled letters to the Cape Times.
20 Mar 2012, 08:42 am
Hmmmm.
“But in the dead of night, African residents had started mobilising, said a woman.
‘We call it “set up”. Tyres started burning and rocks were placed in the road. It was time. People were singing and the police came,’ she said with a grin. ‘I tell you, we have plans. Next is the white school. But the problem is that this morning a coloured guy stabbed a black guy. We are going to speak to his parents tonight. We have elected three people to do so.’
‘A few kilometres away, in the predominantly coloured area of Pine View, an African man lay screaming in pain. He had been stoned.
Dozens of incensed coloured residents gathered around him to hurl insults. ‘Ja, jou k****r,’ screamed one.
‘They underestimated us! They’re going to die!’ screeched another.
Every time the man screamed in pain, the coloured crowd jeered and laughed.
‘They, these blacks, came and burnt our children’s school. Why? We waited for this school for so long. They must wait their turn,’ a burly woman said, to nods of agreement from neighbours.
The school she is referring to is Groenberg Secondary. According to Western Cape MEC Donald Grant, three of its classrooms were vandalised and protestors tried to torch its storeroom yesterday morning.
After an ambulance took the man away, the crowd focused their attention on rumours that coloureds were being attacked and murdered.
‘They’re coming,’ a scream went up suddenly.
The mob ran towards Gaffley Road, a dirt road between the African and coloured communities.
Over the hill came dozens of African men, women and children, armed with sticks and chanting and shouting.
And up the hill moved their coloured neighbours. As the groups came face to face, stones filled the air, as did agonising screams.
There was blood.
Gunshots rang out as the clashes continued for almost an hour.”
Madness.

I’m sorry, but 5 weeks for that tackle is a joke. It was hardly a tip tackle. Coetzee landed on his back, not his neck (not to even mention his head). At the very most a penalty. When the yellow card came out I thought that was harsh. But this is just ridiculous. I understand the need to protect players, but there are FAR worse things that happen every match than this. And don’t get me started on this new trend of ALWAYS staying down in agony after such a tackle, only to get up and soldier on once the punishment has been handed out. Before tip tackles were so frowned upon, hardly anyone spent minutes lying down. Now it’s almost expected of you. Nee man.

20 Mar 2012, 08:58 am
@>^..^< katman(katman)-32: SANZAR Duty Judicial Officer Mike Heron interviewed Ioane and Reds coach Ewen McKenzie before proposing a five-match ban, despite ruling there was ‘no intention to injure the player’.
“The tackle involved the player lifting the opposition player, tipping him beyond the horizontal and driving him backwards into the ground, in one motion,” Heron said.
“The Sharks player broke his fall with his right arm and landed on his back. The tackle was dangerous, although it appears from the footage that Ioane attempts to control the opposition player by keeping hold of him until he was brought to ground.”
“That was not achieved safely in the circumstances and I find that the tackle was in breach of Law 10.4(j).”
“I accept, however, that there was no intention to injure the player or to drive him forcefully into the ground.”
“Rather, Ioane has executed the tackle with poor technique and was reckless as to the danger caused.”

What a load of Hogg wash. Have a look at the tackle again, and you will see he drove the player into the ground, he didn’t drop him, threw him, nothing.
One week would have been sufficient, but then again SANZAR, have no clue on what they are doing anymore. Let’s get some consistency.
Player are being targeted for things they did years ago, i.e. JP Nel and now Ioani.
This is NZ panel again making sure that the Reds don’t make the final…. (lol)

“Cape Town – Black and coloured Grabouw residents guarded their schools against attack from either side following violent protests, the Cape Times reported on Tuesday. Coloured Pineview residents and black Siteview residents clashed on Monday. Police had to form a human shield to prevent the groups from entering each other’s territories.“
You see, there’s your problem. The coloureds live in a place called Pineview, which clearly has a view over the pine trees. But the blacks live in Siteview. Doesn’t seem fair to me at all.

Hartley cited for biting
Tuesday, 20 March 2012 9.45 a.m.
England hooker Dylan Hartley has been cited for allegedly biting the finger of an opponent.
Hartley, who could land a maximum ban of four years, will face a disciplinary hearing following the first-half incident during Saturday’s Six Nations game against Ireland at Twickenham
Six Nations organisers announced the New Zealand-born player had been reported by match commissioner Alberto Recaldini.
It is understood that Hartley is alleged to have bitten the finger of Ireland flanker Stephen Ferris in the 23rd minute.
In a statement, the Six Nations said: “England hooker Dylan Hartley has been cited following the Six Nations match between England and Ireland at Twickenham on Saturday for an alleged biting offence.
“The independent Six Nations citing commissioner for the match, Alberto Recaldini (Italy), cited the England player under IRB Law 10.4(m), “Acts contrary to good sportsmanship”, for allegedly biting the finger of an opponent in the 23rd minute of the first-half.
“The player’s hearing will be held by an independent Six Nations disciplinary committee at a date to be confirmed.”
A biting offence carries a low end entry point of a 12-week suspension, with 18 weeks for mid-range and 24-plus weeks at the top end in the International Rugby Board’s disciplinary sanctions table.
The maximum sanction is a four-year punishment.
If Hartley is banned, he could be ruled out of England’s three-Test tour to South Africa in June.

Frankie returns
According to an article in the Mercury this morning, Sharks CEO Brian van Zyl has confirmed that the union has entered into preliminary discussions with Springbok Frans Steyn regarding a mid-year return to Durban.
Van Zyl told Mike Greenaway that he recently met with Steyn and his agent, Gerrie Swart, to agree preliminary terms in a deal that could see the former Sharks star return to Durban – where he owns property – after the England test series and in time to play in the closing rounds of Super Rugby this year. Steyn has apparently been told by new Bok coach Heyneke Meyer that he should ideally be playing his rugby in South Africa in order to secure his test future, which will probably be in the number 12 jersey.
The fact that Steyn is marrying a Durban girl on the day of the third English test will probably weigh heavily in his decision.

geez 5 weeks seems a bit much, they must take into account past offences, i think ioane and ranger both have a record of tip-tackles, still 5 weeks seems alot, our okes better watch out
20 Mar 2012, 13:21 pm
@cab(cab)-132: Ja, Walker Texas Ranger had the roundhouse kick. Rene Auckland Ranger has the tip tackle.

Five weeks is harsh. I know the authorities are trying to stamp it out but these things are usually more careless than malicious.
20 Mar 2012, 13:58 pm
The telegraph newspaper in the Uk reported that there ere 1 death and 16 injuries at the cape town stadium healing evangelism of pastor Chris of Nigeria. They really are looking for ways to utiliise cape town stadium however the past event really is bad publicity for cape town.
20 Mar 2012, 14:15 pm
@cab(cab)-132: the entry level for a mid-range offence is 6 weeks, the JO added 1 more week because he is a repeat offender and another week as a deterrent. he then reduced it from the 8 weeks by 3 weeks because digby showed remorse during the game, pleaded guilty at the hearing and didn’t intentional hurt the player. so voila 5 WEEKS it is.
hougaard had the entry level 3 weeks, for contrition & remorse he got one week stricken off and for his exemplary record of never having had a yellow to his name, got another week off…voila 1 WEEK suspension.
20 Mar 2012, 14:45 pm
Stirring is so cool
20 Mar 2012, 15:26 pm
I wonder if they bother to run a drug test on Digby too? he seemed under an uncontrolled aggression?
The one question I still have is how come JP got away with an off the ball tip tackle planting Sadie’s head to the ground
Maybe Tact can shed some light on it?
20 Mar 2012, 15:42 pm
The very real and extremely destructive threat of ugly racial conflict becomes regarded as a sport to joke about on a rugby site?
‘Hoe laag kan julle nog daal’?
Any situation where burning old schools, in even older but racially demarcated residential areas, is definitely going to raise the spectre of dehumanising violence and the authorities need to act quickly to stop it and solve the problems that led to this situation.
If any prices are to be affected it will be the prices of Appletiser and Liquifruit juices, for Grabouw, and especially Pineview, form 80% of the Appletiser workforce.
Luckily for me, my contact replenished my supplies just last week as I was told about this brewing conflict.

Appletiser is the cullart champagne.
Cheers.
20 Mar 2012, 16:58 pm
@Jokerstotheright(Mostofyou)-142: Not to stress, if supply’s dry up locally they can always bring it (Appeltiser) in from Spain like they did recently.
20 Mar 2012, 17:05 pm
Nothing better than Cape Granny Smiths for all those apple-based juices.
Cape fruit juices are amongst the very best in the world.
The foiunders of that business are actually Italian.

That’s extraball!
I recognise that pondering prose anywhere
20 Mar 2012, 19:14 pm
When “the business” I clearly refer to is Appletiser/Liquifruit(one involvement of Applethwaite Farm) one wonders why Del Monte is even brought into the discussion.
The Lombardi family are the founders of Appletiser as anyone in the S-West, Elgin/Grabouw and surrounding areas will tell you.
20 Mar 2012, 19:38 pm
Indeed.

Very definitely the lab janitor.
Same boring, plodding writing style and reference to race nogal.
20 Mar 2012, 21:57 pm
Wait until he gets started on Majola
20 Mar 2012, 22:01 pm
What have I missed here by commenting on the ugly violence?
What are these jokers about?
Since when is Gordons Bay and AECI not in the Hottentots-Holland Mt. Catchment Area and thus what happens there affects me and my juices directly?
Any way let me enjoy what remains of this fairly good autumnal equinox night.
20 Mar 2012, 22:36 pm
Ooooooh yes.

My goodness, what a self-induced flurry of confusion these ‘apartheid’ supporters and defenders have brought upon themselves. But fear not your mess will be cleared up.
After giving countless indications for weeks that I want no further part in this wasteful deja vu cycle to the next RWC and beyond, and thus not posting(’til now) for more than 4 weeks, you fools now seem to will me to be present in your decadent company by over-hastily tagging.every new name E.T.(I have lost count already but it could be close to 20).
I took myself out of the loop and as I prove with this post I can bring myself back just when I want to and continue to knock to pieces your life-long acquired culture of ‘apartheid’-induced dishonesty and lies.
I have but one other name as a safety valve to counter the neo-racist Broederbond-type spoilbrat attitudinal ‘banners’ and that is Comfortably numb and Gunther has been let in on that since its inception (now I do not even need that as I am comfortably away and very busy).
In my quiet time I peeped in about 3 times and on every occassion the E. and T. was echoing as a psychological cry for help from my avidly reading(but unwanted) fan club. Sorry, you will just have to learn to live without me.
My every call here over the years has been vindicated, and emphasised just these last few days by the outcome(hopefully to jail time) of the ongoing Ger’bil’ Majola(even Majority) disgrace and the racist violence witnessed Monday night in Grabouw. Racism flourishes uncontrolled at home (worse than 20 years ago) and very much so in the money sports even though under huge cover-ups; but that is the price that you pay when you stupidly, like the selfish ANC, try to reform a rotten political, economic and social system instead of totally destroying it and rebuilding from the ashes a new healthy, vibrant and united national community.
In your haste and over-eagerness to will me back you have scampered over each others backs like rats and fallen over your clumsy feet to tag every new name an alien(E.T., for the stupid) and ended up alienating them like the ‘ryecatcher’ and others before(including the Kiwis & Aussies) with your boring, boorish ‘boere’ attitudes; and this site can do without that as it is clearly on its own slow poison to nowhere.
Now that you have made, en mass, fools of yourselves by your posts above give each other the desired pats on the backs that you have earned. You have made my day.
