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.

@CharlesM-20846:
yip
i’ll leave it to HG to put them in their places.
to be honest seeing the backs of lawrence, munro and brown will more than make up for any saffa refs shortcomings.
brown robbed the cheetahs of a win in oz in broad farkin daylight last season and munro’s gifting of the crusaders a playoff spot was, aside from lawrence obviously, possibly one of the most clear cut cases of match fixing if ever i’ve seen any.
lawrence of course needs to introduction.
locally i have mixed reservations about joubert.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-20840: Bakkies……….. a ball has not been kicked in anger, and the mighty Stormers are under attack from all and sundry
It saddens me greatly….
Sh y te it’s tough being the flagship Saffa team
Kind of makes the Stormers like Federer, the AB’s, Le Bron James etc etc… Hatred directed at them in bucketloads because of success.

hey bakks…
here’s the link…

and here’re the lyrics…
you now it’s hard to be yourself,
free yourself, to see yourself,
when all around you there are lies just to get you,
spies just to get you, to buy so they can get you…
there are cameras in the sky, lasers in our living rooms,
there are wolves watching wearing sheep’s costumes
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
it’s enough to make you ma-a-a-a-ad
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
and i’m amazed i haven’t yet
isn’t it, a shame the way we cheat Each other,
treat each other, beat each other?
it’s a shame the way we use one other, abuse one another
and, screw ne another. it’s true.
they will lock you up in prison,
but they won’t call it slavery,
there are stolen children raised and trained in armies.
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
it’s enough to make you ma-a-a-a-ad?
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
and i’m amazed i haven’t yet
don’t hesitate to speak your mind… (speak your mind)
never hesitate to speak your heart… (speak your heart)
they’ll call you crazy, when you speak your mind… (when you speak your mind)
so never, never hesitate… (never hesitate)
’cause it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
it’s enough to make you ma-a-a-a-ad?
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
and i’m amazed i haven’t yet
na so them go lock you for prison
na so them go beat you for prison
them no go call am slavery
na him dey make me vex
na so them go lock you for prison
na so them go beat you for prison
na him they make me vex
na him they make me craze…
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
it’s enough to make you ma-a-a-a-ad
it’s enough to make you go crazy (woh woh woh woh)
and i’d be crazy not to care…
enjoy…
go crazy…
but don’t go crazy…

@Angostura-20862: I remember him from way back – the name etc. But don’t recall much about him, or him leaving etc. Dreadful story though
3 Jan 2013, 18:12 pm
yeah..tragic story about morne…
heart goes out to him and his family…

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-20760: “…beat the ..and Brumbies competitively at home…”
Come, come Bakkies, I must disagree with you…you know that’s not true and we all know what happened at Moftus!
3 Jan 2013, 18:21 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-20871: Bakkies and HG seem to be suffering pre-season blues. To cheer them up (because I’m a caring person), I’m going to give them a little something to make ‘en smile.
For Bakkies, a Wynie Strydom ‘action man’ doll. When you pull the doll’s moustache, the doll starts jumping, waving, clutching it’s chest and blinking it’s eyes furiously. If you press the button on it’s back – smoke starts coming out of his ears, and the upbeat tune of Mofmeyr’s Bull ballade rings out.
For HG, a Keegan ‘action mini-man’ doll. When you press the button on it’s left wrist, the doll starts talking, and gives a helluva realistic ‘losing finalist’ post match speech. When you press the button on it’s right wrist, you hear Juan de Jongh singing, “Opnam Gangnam style”.
No need to thank me. I care…..

To all Keo bloggers whose kids wrote matric last year,good luck to them
and to you.Love them.
Do not live your life vicariously through your kids ,If their marks are not up to
your expectations,love them even more.Life offers second chances.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-20851: I know this game has been debated at length what with all the cutting and pasting etc, but still, all reports point to the fact that the Cheetahs lost in Canberra primarily by playing k*k and taking wrong decisions.

And for you a matched set of Stormers action dolls, JdV and JdJ, dressed as Justin Bieber.
If you pull the JdJ doll’s ear he drops his trousers and assumes the position, and if you slap the Donkey one behind its head it starts playing “Macho, Macho Man” and starts to hump JdJ Gangham style

Disgusting.
3 Jan 2013, 18:38 pm
@victoriabok-20879: Those are porno dolls. I don’t think one would be able to sell them on the open market.
Any other ideas?

If I type in your alleged Stormers fan site’s addie, I get the ‘not found’ message from sir Google.
But when I type in porno/mofo/rugbyfans/fan sites etc, I get directed to a http://www.voelmyhoring.com site? But it’s not a Stormers site, it’s a Bulls fan site?
Please assist?
