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.

As I always say…
The world would be a pretty boring place if everyone agreed with everyone else.
How you handle disagreements define what type of person you are.

@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-11750: that article is the biggest joke i have ever read.
it did bring a smile to my face as i recalled that chiefs winger scoring early at loftus in the 2009(?) s14 final and his huge smirk.
then they got given 60 pts
and what about all the little hand signals from the keewees, look, i am a rooster, look i am part of a knobheadbrigade etc etc.
eddie should stfu.
11 Dec 2012, 12:52 pm
@willievz-11753: agreed.
sadly i have let myself down so many times i feel like an elevator.

some old school for everyone:
Ughh!
Hey yo, it’s just another bombtrack…ughh!
Hey yo, it’s just another bombtrack…yeah!
It goes a-1, 2, 3…
Yeah, it’s just another bombtrack
And suckas be thinkin’ that they can fake this
But I’m gonna drop it at a higher level
‘Cause I’m inclined to stoop down
Hand out some beat-downs
Cold runna train on punk ho’s that
Think they run the game
But I learned to burn that bridge and delete
Those who compete…at a level that’s obsolete
Instead I warm my hands upon the flames of the flag
To recall the downfall
And the businesses that burned us all
See through the news and the views that twist reality
Enough
I call the bluff
**** manifest destiny
Landlords and power whores
On my people they took turns
Dispute the suits I ignite
And then watch ‘em burn
With the thoughts from a militant mind
Hardline, hardline after hardline
Landlords and power whores
On my people they took turns
Dispute the suits I ignite
And then watch ‘em burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
It goes a-1, 2, 3
Another funky radical bombtrack
Started as a sketch in my notebook
And now dope hooks make punks take another look
My thoughts ya hear and ya begin to fear
That ya card will get pulled if ya interfere
With the thoughts from a militant militant mind
Hardline, hardline after hardline
Landlords and power whores
On my people they took turns
Dispute the suits I ignite
And then watch ‘em burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
urrrrrrrrr
Ugh!
Hey, Yo
it’s just another bomb track, Yeah
Uh!
Check it out
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn, burn, yes you’re gonna burn
Burn!

@wnbb-11721: you have no credibility FILTH….
At best,Sharks supporters are
deluded.Take Treehugger for
instance.She tried all and sundry on
here that KP was full for the English Test…..
I see what ever one else see’s on their tv’s, Not my style to go on and on that a game is filled too capacity, if I have read it will be filled cos of tickets sold I will say so.
Seriously why don’t you feck off, you don’t seem to have any redeeming qualities and are totally unlikeable, (note feckall smiley)

I had a good chuckle the other night when I saw a prog shown on Kyknet – think it was called – ‘Afrikaans is groot’
The part I saw was where Robbie Wessels does an impersonation of what he refers to as Snorre (PdV), quite funny actually
But that was not the only task they had for Snorre. They neatly evolved the topic to the anthem which then paved the way for Bok van Blerk to sing ‘Ons vir jou Suid Afrika’
Every now and again the camera would catch the glimpse of someone singing along… all sentimental… ONS VIR JOU SUID AFRIKA
11 Dec 2012, 13:27 pm
@The Rangerman-11754:
Settle down.
Only reason why you see or remember us kiwis doing the hand signals is because we score so many damn tries.
11 Dec 2012, 13:28 pm
Sharksgirl goes to games, not me.
11 Dec 2012, 13:28 pm
Does this explain the phenomenon of white South Africans simply not singing or showing absolutely no interest in learning those incredibly difficult few opening lines of the revamped SA anthem?
11 Dec 2012, 13:30 pm
@Sheriff-11762:
IMO those Bok van Blerk songs should be banned.
And that old flag.
But that’s just me.
11 Dec 2012, 13:30 pm
This poem is embedded in my memory:
Die mot en die kers
Die ander motte is dom en dwaas,
Maar ek sal vér van die kers af bly;
Hier vér uit die skemerte sal ek kyk,
Hier vér is dit veilig en kyk is vry.
Maar ek hoef nie van éénkant net te kyk -
Ek vlieg op dieselfde afstand om,
Dan weet ek van álkant af hoe hy lyk,
Om beter te sorg om nie nader te kom.
My sirkel was skeef en ingebuig,
Maar dáár ook nog, waar ek naaste was,
Het niks gebeur – ek maak verniet
My velling so groot en so vér van die as.
Die wieletjie draai ál vinniger om,
En die lig en die gloed word ál groter genot:
En die vellings word nouer ál rondom die as -
En die end van die wiel is die as van die mot.

@willievz-11766:
Bok van Blerk has discovered a little gold mine, just like Steve Hofmeyer.
All you need to do is show your allegiance to ‘The Afrikaner’ and it simply goes ka-ching in his bank account
Unlike Africans who prefer rhythm, Afrikaners like stories … the words/lyrics and once you have made appearances at the right events, the undying loyalty is triggered
So if Steve is seen with Kallie Kriel (Afriforum) at the Voortrekker Monument making utterances like ‘ Pretoria is hier om te bly’ ; he secures the sales of at least the next 3 cds or until the next scandal
For Steve then the Afrikaner has become a cow that he needs to milk , year in and year out
11 Dec 2012, 13:44 pm
@Sheriff-11765: Bit of a generalisation, that. Some of my best white friends know all the words to Nkosi Sikelel i’Afrika.
11 Dec 2012, 13:45 pm
A classic afrikaans idiom in the old “Lees, Gesels en Skryf ” textbook was…..
“So dronk soos ‘n kleurling onderwyser”
True story.
11 Dec 2012, 13:47 pm
That behaviour is the equivalent of Hollywood stars always and ever alert at the cameras
So they pose nicely but always give a hand signal to show those who control who gets what role that they ‘ are down for the cause’
So whether it’s a pyramid with an eye, they always make sure that the ‘all see-ing eye’ sees that they’re are committed to the cause of the brotherhood
This has made me to begin to consider the view that ‘freemasonry/ universalism’ is really the religion of the world today. From universalism we get the phenomenon of ‘political correctness’ , that is: we are not allowed to say something is wrong
Anything goes.

@Sheriff-11762: @willievz-11766: YAY!!! We are back on the kuk Afrikaans muzic topic.
I saw a legend this morning….on Kyknet, didn’t catch the name of the uselessfuck, but dearestxmas, it was painful, so painful I actually let it run.
The muzic video included 2 twats swanning around the dancefloor.
Neeman. Ekskaammyfokkendood.

@playtheball-11769: I know every word, down to the correct pronunciation. Truth.
11 Dec 2012, 13:57 pm
@playtheball-11769: Give us another legend to watch on Youtube? Please? Someone as good, if not better, than that fella you introduced us to last week.
(I forwarded a few of his clips to mates of mine….and the tragedy was, TWO of them knew exactly who he was
11 Dec 2012, 13:58 pm
@playtheball-11769:
I’m merely explaining why someone you see at Loftus/ Ellis Park or Newlands is not singing
People have incredible languistic ability .So this is more a collective action to say: No man, I don’t want to sing this song – I will wait for the ‘Uit die blou’ part.
It is pure joy when that part of the anthem is distinctly louder and clearer than the rest of the song.

@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-11772: Kyk, ek bly in Engeland, en verlang my mense en my tuisdorp.
Maar ek is goddank bly ek hoef nie meer sommige naweke om ‘n braaivleisvuur na ander Afrikaners (meestal bo-middelklas Afrikaners met ‘n goeie werk, kwalifikasies en NG-lidmate) se kak te luister oor hoe die ANC die land opneuk en hoe die Afrikaner moet saamstaan vir oorlewing. Alles terwyl ons lekker sakkie-sakkie op Kurt Darren se strooi.
Nee dankie.

By the way this is a complement.

Geniet!
@Sheriff-11775: I’m not denying that there are many people who don’t, but I suppose we look at it with different eyes – I seem to see the people who DO sing the anthem. And there are lots of them too.

I have only heard Nkosi Sikelel’ iafrika sang properly once and that was on the 11th of February 1990 in Cape Town on the Grand Parade.
Spine chilling stuff.

Or this Koos Du Plessis song, “Koue Vuur”:

11 Dec 2012, 14:14 pm
@Robzim-11780: There are some magnificent Afrikaans musos and always have been. I dig ‘Die Straatlig Kinders’, ‘Die Heuwels Fantasties’. Loved the Van Coke Kartel and Fokofpolisiekar (Francois van Coke in both)… etc etc.
Kerkorrel was born way too early….and died too soon.
Some of the others you mention, poets most of them, not just muzos. Valiant does the Blues like very few others can…..Another poet (IMHO) Koos du Plessis – depro verby.
My scorn is levelled, as always, at those who are a fuckingembarassment to the percentage of me that is Afrikaans.

Yip, i can add just about all du plessis’ songs to my list.
“Bicycle sonder slot” of koos as well… there are many more.
Not much happening at the moment though imo … everybody tries to sound like FPK- jan Blohm had a few good ones though

I think it’s wrong to say to someone that they are not allowed to like a particular style of music.
I have often watched people dance at say a work function and concluded that we truly have different inborn rhythms; surely that cannot be wrong
Afrikaans music was really hijacked during apartheid to serve the system. So instead of someone developing their artistic ability they wrote songs with different motives.
These days I see and hear a few genuine Afrikaans artists (we have to include Emo Adams
) coming through. But there are many impostors who ‘make it’ because of ‘sympathy buying’
We also have to say then that you need NOT be ghay to discover the true ‘you’ ; if you are male, white and Afrikaans speaking then that’s you.
You are 100% South African and actually owe no one an explanation let alone an apology.
11 Dec 2012, 14:21 pm
@Jeraldjay-11785: I was there. Yup. Life changing.
If I remember correctly, there’s also a very powerful version on the soundtrack of the movie “Cry Freedom”.
11 Dec 2012, 14:22 pm
@playtheball-11790: Good list. Donker donker land was a great track. And ditto the song “Ry” by the GBB (want orals val die dice, jy vat jou kans en jy ry). I really enjoyed the Niemansland album by Koos – finally someone gave him a band and they rocked.
hoe kan ek dit verwoord?
ja die lewe gaan nog voort
ek lees my koerant en drink my gin
bel Laura by die Holiday Inn
maar sy help uit met ‘n gesinsmoord
I also think Anton Goosen preceded Voëlvry by many years and doesn’t always get the recognition he deserves.
11 Dec 2012, 14:23 pm
@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-11791: It’s a classic, innit?

So in rugby terms you are the guy that sees the gaps and not the defender
Can I ask that you take over from Heyneke Meyer with immediate effect?
