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.

The 8000 is coming to the R.S.A.
It’s coming through a crack in the wall;
on a visionary flood of alcohol;
from the staggering account
of the Weepees on the Mount
which I don’t pretend to understand at all.
It’s coming from the silence
on the dock of the bay,
from the brave, the bold, the battered
heart of Algoa Bay
The 8000 is coming to the R.S.A.

Never forget that.

A child of a hore deserves nothing less.

Does anyone know what Google stands for? Everyone says I will go and google it.

I’m sentimental, if you know what I mean
I love the site, but I can’t stand the scene.
And I’m neither left or right
I’m just staying home tonight,
getting lost in this hopeless little screen.
But I’m stubborn as those garbage bags
that Time cannot decay,
I’m junk but I’m still holding up
this little wild bouquet:
The 8000 is coming to the R.S.A.

I’m waiting for the big one, and I expect everyone to refrain from posting until I have thatfucking 10 000.

@Nikita-7713:
The name ‘Google’ is a play on the word ‘googol,’ coined by Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner. A ‘googol’ refers to the number represented by a 1 followed by 100 zeros. It’s a very large number. In fact, there isn’t a googol of anything in the universe — not stars, not dust particles, not atoms. Google’s use of the term reflects our mission to organize the world’s immense (seemingly infinite) amount of information and make it universally accessible and useful.

Is that a trick question?

@Nikita-7712:
Not yet.
It may be some time.
I grieve for lost acquaintances who shall never return.
The 3 people I admired most,
Puma, Sharksgirl and Sharkshagger,
They now post on R_T as the voices of the Coast.

Or are you dancer?

@cane-7723:
It is important to grieve Cane. Take your time. They may have come back as someone else – we shall never know now, shall we.

It’s coming from the feel
that this ain’t exactly real,
or it’s real, but it ain’t exactly there.
From the Threads against disorder,
from the sirens night and day,
from the fires of the homeless,
from the ashes of the ***
The 8000 is coming to the RSA.

She said she was a dancer. If I believed it, it was my busines
She surely knew a thing or two about control.
Next to the bar we hit the samovar. She almost slipped right through my fingers.
It was snowing outside and in her soul.
Well, maybe you’re a dancer, and maybe I’m the King of Old Siam.
I thought it through… best to let the illusion roll.
I wouldn’t say I’ve never heard that tale before,
My frozen little senorita,
But if your dream is good, why not share it when the nights are cold?
Hey Moscow, what’s your story? Lady, take your time, don’t hurry.
Maybe a student of the agricultural plan.
Hey Moscow, what’s your name? If you don’t want to say, don’t worry.
It would probably be hard for me to make it scan.
With her phrase book in her silk soft hand
She spoke in riddles while the vodka listened.
I said, “Let me look up love, if I might be so bold.”
She was the nearest thing to Rock and Roll
That side of the velvet curtain
That separates eastern steel from western gold.

Wilson played 1 day Internationals, so he , could have gotten test caps if he chose cricket.
@Robzim-7631:
Agree, he was the best schoolboy player I also had the privilege of watching. He was so fast he would pass to the inside center and by the time the outside center had the ball he would make the overlap to the wing.
And he would hardly miss kicks at goal.
Also played Craven Week soccer and was a decent tennis player too.

Coming back to the topic,
I think Andrew Hore will probably get a 5-week ban.

I keep dreaming that I’m drowning in a mass of orange soda.
I phoned my therapist and he said it’s just a fantasea.

What happens when this thread hits 10 000?
And where is Skop? Why is he not whinging about the lack of maturity in chasing some fckadilly blog record?

There once was a girl named Nikita
Though Puma was dashing
He showed her no passion
But she wouldn’t let that defeat her

@WP-Forever-7739: Knocked down to ‘time served’ = one game on appeal
Bakkies will cross the Rubicon if that happens.

Check last night from about 10 pm to close to 2 am. Had long discussions.
He is doing his part to getting it to 10 000, maybe not intentionally
4 Dec 2012, 14:18 pm
@Nikita-7742: Your limerick is missing a first (or second) line. Let me try and fix it.
There once was a girl named Nikita
As hot as a gas panel heater
Though Puma was dashing
He showed her no passion
But she wouldn’t let that defeat her
