Hore set for hefty ban

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.

    two generations and the road survivors would be much like early hunter gatherers and some of them would be grateful for their neanderthal genes.

    the confusion between the Mayan calender coming to a close and some apocalyptic premonitions is all down to some 70′s self made hallucinatory clairvoyants proclaiming it thus.. Mayan’s said nothing about any big apocalypse about to unfold, all they said was the great count cycle of 5126 years is closing in 8 days time

    I am ok in sub zero if dressed appropriately and keep moving. Going for a cross country run in a deep crisp **** frost is wonderful.

    Send me out in the heat and I melt!

    7′s is a very exciting sport.. nothing nearly like 20T skittle sticks.. the level of fitness and skill andplayers read of the game is as demanding as15′s and in many cases 7′s is more appealing to new audiences, hence the way it taken off in Kenya, Portugal, Spain and got a far bigger global potential than rugby union. That why IOC has taken it on board as very viable Olympic sport, and can only grow to encompass more nations from here.

    Hello,

    A cross country run in crisp frost sounds” appetising” in comparison to climbing the big hill on the Hillcrest mtb route in 35 degrees heat swallowing 2 flies and spat out another 3 ( one fatally wounded) before reaching the top.

    Thankfully I am no vegetarian :)

    Hello Robz

    Cycling in the heat….I am still in shock from 70 miles at 35 degrees plus during the 2012 Argus!!

    On the up side there were no flies. Perhaps you could cycle with a mosquito net over your nose and mouth!

    btw..

    I heard Bob Dylan doing a sort of comedy Christmas ditty earlier on the radio, it was kinda spooky!

    Jo’burg is kief.. less oppressive to Cape Town.. little more enlightened in some respects also in spite of what some people might think.

    Cape Town is a tough nut to crack.. too slow and conservative for my liking.. dunno how I handled it for 35 years
