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.

Thats right- I once saw their lead singer called Brian Mulder perform in Hillbrow. I think he eventually became a boxing ring announcer.

when i lived in jozi we used to go to a place called reds which had a jazz evening every friday…
many of the countries top musos used to play… but most surprising for me was david kramer playing jazz guitar… very very impressive… mike faure used to do his sax thing as well…
11 Dec 2012, 16:41 pm
@ufo-12025:
The Musos were hard in the old days
Reminds me of David Kramer singing about rugby:
“Die manne was rof in die oudae
“Now it’s all been spoiled by politics” bla bla bla…. lol.

Ask him whether he has heard of “The Feedoms Children” and also a bloke called Julian Laxton. They were amonst the best.
Otis Waygood Blues Band as well.. I think they were from Zim originally.

@ufo-12040:
There were some characters for sure.
There was one bloke who was an ex PTI in the navy who did the club circuit- cannot remember his name- he was usually dressed in a red T shirt- huge biceps, he once broke up a fight outside the coachhouse in newlands- the ambulance had to come and fetch the remains of his ” work”- from that day onwards people only applauded him even if farked a cover up big time
11 Dec 2012, 17:03 pm
