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.

Yes, some girls do have children just to receive the government grants but I’m sure you can agree that it is less likely that a girl growing up in a middle class home will go out of her way to have a child just so that she can have an income. Hence my point: As they become more wealthy, they will have smaller families.
In the 60′s and 70′s it was common for white families, especially Afrikaans families, to have 5-8 children and even more in some cases. As they became more urbanized and grew more wealthy, their families became smaller. They did not have small families first and then became more wealthy as a consequence.

Yeah, it also worked but it was also nerve wrecking because you always wondered…het ek betyds uitgetrek?

Again as they became more urban they had fewer kids
The Nats also influenced them into having fewer

Something that is also forgotten when this topic is discussed, is the fact that one of the biggest instincts we have is to make sure that our genes live on. That is why you see soldiers impregnate their wives before they set off for war. (I know this is a generalization)
Now for the very same reason you poor, rural man will want to have as many children as possible. With medical care far away and not enough money at his disposal, there is always the possibility that a few of his children will survive and grow up to continue planting forth his genes if he has a lot of children. If, for example he only has two children, the possibility that both of them can die before they reach adulthood and his genes die out with them, is much bigger.
That is probably also the reason why we see that some woman buried up to 5/6 of their children in the concentration camps during the AB War.

Die snaakste van daai, “Ek is laat,” is dat ‘n man altyd sou vra: Waarvoor?
Ek het een keer daai storie gehoor en maar daarna seker gemaak ek is gewapen.

I once read a stroy by a woman, her grandmother buried five in the camp, went back to a detroyed farm, started over and had four more kids

Good day all fellow Africans, a new work day dawns for all.
I note not a single supporter of CSA has come out to defend/support or castigate that racist Dr. W(MD) Basson as I challenged you to do in my post 21480.
You therefore must agree with me about him then. Thanks, all.
8 Jan 2013, 07:02 am
Every single article quoted, by friend or foe(even Cunther’s edited one), openly exposes the attempts by Basson and his ‘gatgabbas’ to opportunistically abuse the toxic atmosphere caused by the Majola corruption issue, to advance their sick racists agenda on cricket for the people of our land.
They were out-thought and out-fought to fail dismally and the non-racial diehards of Arendse, Magiet(a Howa disciple) and Christiansen(seemingly) won the day for all fair minded cricket lovers.
The sickly attempts by the not-so-well-hidden racists on this site to distort and misinterpret these unfolding events were also given the boot in no uncertain manner.

Count three for ‘pedigree is dog food’ sees he/she/it again showing the dirty colour of a slip.
‘Dog food’ is one of at least 2 persons who have openly celebrated in angry words and deed the banning of people of colour in their own land of birth by the denial of travel documents to those seeking such documents to travel outside S Afrca’s borders(before 1992).
Little does he/she/it know that all of Sisulu, Mandela, Govan Mbeki, Neville, Frank, Steve and tens of thousands were also denied such documents called passports for simply being honest in spite of their pigmentation.
Only the demented and barbaric would want to be seen celebrating and thus supporting such policies which deny freedom, and obviously they must have a racist tendency in life to want to be seen to do so
Doggy on count three you are struck out now, FAKE.. Go to the dugout and chew your tobacco.

Does anybody know, will Gerald Majola ever be criminally charged for the “illegal” and immoral siphoning of funds out of the ever-dwindling funds of CSA?
8 Jan 2013, 07:28 am
Try as hard as she does to come across as a stable, well-balanced, fair-minded, principled invader in and from an undeniably thorough racist cultured background , ‘pedigree is dog food’ fails miserably in attaining that image, as revealed in these words of today :
“It’s not about me liking it or not. It’s about the integrity of the sport.
This might sound awfully strange to you, but I don’t see things as an ‘all or nothing back(sic) vs white’ issue. (is it meant to be “back white”?)
I see GOOD vs BAD. What’s good for the country, and what’s good for her people and their integrity.
All white is not bad OR good because of our history.
All black is not bad OR good because of our history.
In between rests normality. Normality with ethics. THIS is what SA and her people need.
It’s simple: People are not black or white; rich or poor; educated or uneducated.
What people are, is: Trash OR not trash. Nothing more, nothing less.” (21506)
Who in all sanity scribbles such wholesome socio-politico-economic rubbish as a way of life. When is it truly, in life, NEVER about rich vs. poor , white vs. black or even educated vs. uneducated. Surely these notions can only emanate from an ivory tower dweller who whiles away the time on earth in the opium of life called sports and movies and celebrity magazines(all of which spells FUN).
Why does this off-spring of invading foreigners separate self from the country with words like “the country ….. her people…(X 2). Why does she not say my country and my people? Have we now really seen the colour of the marauding invader?
She swings like a pendulum , on another and other topic from;
1. ” have a few new heroes. Walsh himself. Pierre Ballester. Sandro Donati. Travis Tygart” .(21371) to ;
2. “@WP-Forever-21372: @i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-21373: Agree with both of you. Thing is, as a ‘regular’ sports follower, I don’t feel any sort of anger towards Armstrong.
He did what he did, because to win that’s what needed to be done” (21375)
amongst many more to indicate total confusion and the opportunism of the cultured, unprincipled invading mentality. She undeniably grew up in a culture of supporting only racist sports until change was forced upon her and her forebears in 1994.
With this;
3. “Then again…. we have to remember that many serious sports ‘dopers’ (and often the most successful sportsmen in their fields) are also sociopaths (or folk with a few BP tendencies at least)…… Of that I am certain”(21390)
she reaches Skop-like proportions of being the’ all-knower’ of certainty. How, and based on what facts?
Further comments like this :
“SASCOC – the real bastion of honour in SA sport? “(21499)
clearly underlines her racist cultured up-bringing, for those who do know, see “SASCOC” as prompting a bastardised version of non-racialism commonly labelled neo-racism.
Obviously her historical role took her to the Newlands(X 2) Hartlevale, Green Point Stadium(old) and such like venues and she has never heard of Wepcos, Epcos, Nacos,Tracos and the parent SACOS who formulated the non-racial principles of my country with the rallying call of ‘NO NORMAL SPORT in an ABNORMAL SOCIETY”
How more FAKE or PLASTIC can one be? It is a FRAUD. It is a foreign invader, no more , no less with no yearning to belong or loyalty to the land ,country and its people.
Like Fourie she should qualify for a deportation. The sooner the better for eventually when they start roasting grapes, she will run.

But Bacher with his R5m pension hand-shake qualifies too.
8 Jan 2013, 07:34 am
Last word on W(MD) Basson of CSA;
Also from the New Age:
» We asked Basson for his CV on Monday. He sent a summary CV that carries a one-line reference to his work in the 1980s chemical warfare programme, Project Coast (incorporating the Delta G front company).
» Digital checks showed Basson’s CV attachment was modified one hour before it was given to The New Age this week
Dishonesty such as lying and deceiving or cheating with modified documents go hand in hand with the culture of racism; because it is based on lies it demands it.
With that I will happily make my way to work to earn my keep for this day.
See you later this afternoon or sooner if you misbehave by lying.

hahaha this is funny:
Gamers hired by father to ‘kill’ son in online games:
A man in China hired virtual “assassins” to hunt down his son in online video games and kill off his avatar, according to local media.
The man, named by the Kotako East blog as Mr Feng, was concerned about the amount of time his 23-year-old unemployed son was spending online.
He hoped his actions would deter his son from playing the games, he is reported to have said. His son eventually asked one of the gamers why they kept targeting him.
“It’s not going to do much for family relations,” Prof Mark Griffiths, a gambling and addictions expert at Nottingham Trent University told the BBC.
“I’ve never heard of that kind of intervention before, but I don’t think these top-down approaches work. Most excessive game playing is usually a symptom of an underlying problem.”
Prof Griffiths said he heard from many parents who were worried about their children’s gaming habits but often it was not an addiction.
“I’ve spent 25 years studying excessive video game playing,” he said.
“I’ve come across very excessive players – playing for 10 to 14 hours a day – but for a lot of these people it causes no detrimental problems if they are not employed, aren’t in relationships and don’t have children.
“It’s not the time you spend doing something, it’s the impact it has on your life.”
Father and son are said to have reconciled but World of Warcraft expert Olivia Grace said she did not think Mr Feng’s actions would necessarily act as a deterrent.
“Being killed by someone happens all the time,” she said.
“People are just like that online.”

yeah gunther…
the fact that the abuse was aimed at a coloured player who refused to be used in what he personally perceived to be a window-dressing role… speaks volumes…
whether anyone agrees with langeveldt or not… surely in this new democracy peoples personal beliefs and principles should be respected…? especially those in leadership roles…?
or is democracy only acceptable if you don’t think for yourself…? or think at all…?
a democracy for sheep…?

Indeed.
He sent abusive texts to more than one player but isn’t it ironic that his most abusive vitriol was directed towards a player of coloured whom he perceived to have betrayed him in his crusade.
