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.

@WP-Forever-8096: Do you consider yourself African?
Or just South African?
If so, what is African about you, pink porky pie?
Be brave. Try to resist Wiki…

@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-8093: And to add. The samefucker did this to Slumtown the other evening. Folk thought the nic stealer was back – but it’s impossible to steal a nic already registered it seems. You have to change a letter in the name so that it registers as something else…..
Slumtown also had his small “L” changed to a capital “i”.
Ditto for Corporal punishment.

@willievz-8085: Boonie was a character out of the top drawer
I think he held all the in-flight drinking records at the time. More booze between SA and Oz than what is consumed over Xmas in Cape Town.

What was your best ever concert you went to.
Mine is between Crowded House at the 3 Arts and the Prodigy at a venue in Manchester.

@Jeraldjay-8098: You will need something to calm you before the time
Like, let’s say, morphine?
Sheez mate, this might be the biggest sacrifice you ever make for your kids……

I had a great time in 2006 watching the Violent Femmes at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
We were about two rows from the stage.
Felt more like a get-together than a concert.

@Jeraldjay-8110: U2, in Dublin. If I had died right then, I would have been happy. (Now I’m glad I didn’t die, or else I wouldn’t get to see the RHCP’s )

When was the concert. Was it their old songs or the new ones.
@ufo-8116:
Awesome venue and Simon & Garfunkle must have blown you away especially Bright Eyes and Bridge over trouble waters.

A guy walks into a bar with a ******. The ****** grabbed some olives off the bar and ate them.
Then he grabbed some sliced limes and ate them.
He then jumped onto the pool table and grabbed one of the balls.
To everyone’s amazement, he stuck it in his mouth and somehow swallowed it whole.
The bartender looked at the guy and said, “Did you see what your ****** just did?”
“No, what?”
“He just ate the cue ball off my pool table…whole!”
“Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me,” replied the guy, “he eats everything in sight, don’t worry, I’ll pay for the cue ball.”
The guy finished his drink, paid his bill, paid for the stuff the ****** ate and left.
Two weeks later the guy came back, and had his ****** with him. He ordered a drink and the ****** started running around the bar. The ****** found a maraschino cherry on the bar. He grabbed it, stuck it up his butt, pulled it out, and then ate it.
Then the ****** found a peanut, and again stuck it up his butt, pulled it out, and ate it. The bartender asked, “Did you see what your ****** just did?”
“No, what?” replied the man.
“Well, he stuck both a maraschino cherry and a peanut up his butt, pulled them out, and ate them!”
“Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me,” replied the guy.
“He will eat anything, but ever since he had to **** out that cue ball, he measures everything first.”

We have some amazing talent in SA.
Google Albert Frost and Gerald Clark
Great performers who wouldn’t be out of place at the Crossroads Blues festival.

@ufo-8140: 2 day festival each year.
Was at the Ostrich Farm on the N7 this weekend. Natasha Meister, Dan Patlansky, many others, simply amazing. Small, casual, but professional at the same time. They gave away a fender Surfcaster (Retro Stratocaster) to a lucky audience member. That would have been a sweet prize to win.
