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.

11 Dec 2012, 18:02 pm
@Fern-12097: She does indeed. It’s just that I don’t know that much about her, whereas Redi has the gift of the gab and the platform.

@ryecatcher-12101: You mean the TV show? No it’s once a week – 8.30 on Friday nights, I think.

@playtheball-12102: MMa Ralepele
also very good.Where are the good black men?.Is it because women
have a nurturing nature and are not afraid to speak their minds?There is an unspoken question which led to this post.OK Tutu.

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

@katman-12111: That was also the mythical 12111.
11 Dec 2012, 18:15 pm
@katman-12112: And that was the legendary 12112.

@Fern-12070: Well thats what ladies of leisure are.Just a means to an end.

if we want good men… we’re just gonna have to put wig-moustaches on our women…!

@playtheball-12087: Do you remember her talks about the taxi rank rapes?
11 Dec 2012, 18:20 pm
@ryecatcher-12106: You mean Mamphela Ramphele? Ja she’s another strong, powerful woman.
Where are the men? Difficult one. Some possibilities spring to mind, but they’re too glib and they can’t be substantiated. One thing’s for sure though, we are in dire need of a good leader, male or female. At Redi’s book launch someone asked her when she’s going to run for president. Her answer: “I’ll first have to acquire three husbands, 21 children and a liking for fish and chips”.
11 Dec 2012, 18:22 pm
@Fern-12097: She will be ostracised .Too
fearless.
11 Dec 2012, 18:24 pm
@ryecatcher-12117: Yeah I do, and the book in a way deals precisely with that topic. But I have to stop gushing about Redi now, it’s getting embarrassing.
I see I got 12102, which is quite a neat number itself. So I’m officially a little chuffed
11 Dec 2012, 18:25 pm
@playtheball-12057: Redi is one of the best IMO ever !! I try to listen to her whenever I can: where open-minded and very sharp as well
11 Dec 2012, 18:26 pm
@playtheball-12118: Thats the one.My spelling is sloppy.I rack my brains for a male leader.Someone untainted.
11 Dec 2012, 18:26 pm
@CharlesM-12121: That number had a nice symmetry.
11 Dec 2012, 18:27 pm
@playtheball-12120:
and 12120…!! you should be very chuffed…!
@CharlesM-12121:
as should you charles…!!
11 Dec 2012, 18:27 pm
@katman-12123: And your one has a nice ring to it too!

the way you’re collecting these unique important universal numbers we’re gonna have to change your name from Katman to Shaman…
11 Dec 2012, 18:29 pm
@playtheball-12120: You can keep on about Redi – those who haven’t heard are certainly missing out. During the mornings Cape Talk and 702 share the 9 to 12 slot. In the afternoons on Cape Talk between 3.00 pm and 6.00 pm John Maythem is the host. I have not heard anybody with so much general knowledge !! He knows a lot about many things ……from wine to literature, different sports, politics, theatre, birds (the ones that fly), the Beatles etc

Until later then

in all seriousness…
i struggle to think of ANY decent good honest leaders of any kind in south africa…
we are a sorry bunch… the sooner we get some women running the country the better…
mamphela, redi, thuli… these are the sort of honest, fearless people we need to run our country…
11 Dec 2012, 18:34 pm
@katman-12133: I know he can be, but he has many good qualities IMO

11 Dec 2012, 18:35 pm
@CharlesM-12128: Ja John is very bright, I like his show too. I just wish he wouldn’t always read the sms’s from the trolls who dislike him, it just feeds the ****** and makes him come across as always being on his high horse. Great show though.
11 Dec 2012, 18:36 pm
@ufo-12109:
She’s superb.
Would make great pres.
Sadly the fatcunts would never tolerate her.

@gunther-12140: There we go. Trust you to deliver the goods.
11 Dec 2012, 18:39 pm
I love Redi too. Back in 2009, when she was still Redi Direko, she interviewed the Youth League’s Floyd Shivambu. And it was hilarious. Here’s an extract.

11 Dec 2012, 18:41 pm
@CharlesM-12132:
absolutely charles…
a man i respected 100 per cent…
was just a bit sad that he didn’t stay in politics…
the other guy that i really REALLY liked and who this country misses more than it will ever know…
was chris hani…
i don;t want to do a skop and give hypotheticals as facts… but i’m pretty confident that had he lived south africa would be a much better place…
our problem is all the statesmen have gone… and we’re pretty much left with the freeloaders…
but i do think that kgalema is far more statesmenlike than any other current leaders…
11 Dec 2012, 18:41 pm
@ufo-12129: Didnt know that.Brilliant mind.
OK lets provoke another 100 posts(Doing my best here)
Jimi Hendrix was kak.Apologies to his memory.An electric guitar played
at maximum amplification covers a multitude of sins.@CharlesM-12130: Django Reinhardt.Now he could playAcoustic.I seem to have screwed up this post.But he never relied on anything psychedelic
And if I can still spell that then I am OK.And this is my contribution to 200 posts
11 Dec 2012, 18:42 pm
If Santa would grant me one Christmas wish, I’d wish to send the entire cabinet packing and rebuild it around Mampele Ramphele, Jonathan Jansen and Thuli Madonsela.
11 Dec 2012, 18:44 pm
@gunther-12140:
excellent example gunther…
an honest and fearless man…
can’t believe i forgot him…!!
feel quite relieved now…
@gunther-12143:
spot again…
they certainly wouldn’t want her sitting in the big chair…
