Hore set for hefty ban

Hore set for hefty ban

26 Nov 2012

New Zealand hooker Andrew Hore has been cited for an off-the-ball incident which subsequently hospitalised Wales lock Bradley Davies.

Hore hit Davies off the ball during the initial stages of last Saturday’s Test in Cardiff. The incident was missed by matchday officials, but Hore has now been cited and looks likely to receive a lengthy suspension.

The time and date of the hearing, before the IRB’s appointed independent judicial officer, have yet to be fixed.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen expects the hooker to be sidelined for some time. Hansen did not say as much, but has already called for a replacement ahead of the coming Test against England.

Dane Coles is expected to start at Twickenham.

    @David-7248: I was too young, I didn’t meet them. Although I met Holding a few times in later years. And he’s an absolute gem.
    I’m going through my lists of players I have met over the years :)

    ok i’ve just had a look
    its not a bad draw considering the two top seeds are sa and samoa.

    this time round we could win or lose to them and still go through at least.
    the dirt trackers should easily dispatch of americas 2 and asia.

    Now add Fiji to that list (Oceana qualifier) and this is a proper pool of death.

    That’s if you only consider batsmen. Besides, Lara had the opportunity to play far more tests than say Sobers, Haynes or even Viv Richards.

    @David-7263: Regarding number of tests, you can argue both ways.

    The modern game has a much higher workload and more chances to underperform (as Ponting illustrated).

    If Mike Hussey retired after say 20 tests, many would have included him in an All Time XI.

    not at all…

    just illustrating why i’m not surprised that gary is doing so well… he is a deep thinking wise soul and very focussed determined individual in a softly spoken way… and he REALLY knows his cricket…

    i’ve watched him coach streetkids with his foundation… and it is amazing how he got those kids to respond… so no wonder that he can get experienced cricketers to up their game…

    he’s not the kind who has to turn the air blue to get his message across…

    when they say gary gave it to them full-bore… i’ll bet he never raised his voice once…

    personally i prefer it if the keewees dont have any real competition in the group stage. it’ll leave them undercooked for the knockouts.

    They were blaming Eng for messing up their WC, due to the refusal to go play in Zim, but conveniently forgot the loss vs Windies that was our fault.
    Just the language and demeanor put me off

    boucher and kallis were okay… always been very tight and not to fussed about anything or anyone too much out of their circle of mates… hard to get to know but not bad guys…

    i like herchelle… not the most complicated guy you’ve ever met and doesn’t (or didn’t…) think too much beyond today… but had no agendas or hidden motives about anything… wouldn’t hurt a fly and one of the few cricketers who in whatever company or situation, would come up to you and ask how you were… every time… will always have lot of time for herch….
