Hore set for hefty ban

Hore set for hefty ban

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.

    Look for Gabrielskloof sav blanc (about R70). It’s fab.

    You can’t mention a decent red without bringing Tassies into it.

    Screwtops rule these days and rightly so. The snobs don’t even moan anymore and the rest of us get to the good stuff quicker.

    I knew I could count on you to up the level of the conversation :D

    I love the crisp unpretentious taste.

    @I am a stormer-25903: Tassies is also bottled from surplus stock. You might get lucky and get an excellent bottle but you may also not be so lucky………..

    @JockBok-25908:
    No more pushing a broken off cork into the bottle to get to the wine:-)
    When we were laaities at school we used to go to shebeens to buy beer.
    We never had bottle openers and had to improvise.
    If we broke the head off by accident when opening it on a fencepost etc we would
    wrap a t-shirt over the top to stop us from swallowing fine pieces of glass if there was any.
    Was kh ak,beer came out foamy and you had to suck.

    It’s on the N2 just 2 or 3k’s past Botrivier heading towards Caledon. See if you can seek out a bottle because it is just fab. Or they have an excellent restaurant in beautiful surroundings, so it’s a good excuse for a trip from CT to taste a few samples :)

    @cane-25910: I think we should stop the wine conversation – I’m getting quite thirsty !! BTW it is quite hot in the Cape today

    There is a Poster here who goes under the nick of Tassies.

    Do you suppose he/she is a wino.

    ;)

    (a very convivial poster I must add).

    Hahaha, sounds like our education was the same and we were in different countries. Although it was usually the youngest guys sock. Farck, to think of it now :D

    A wooden spoon was also very handy for opening a bottle of wine in an emergency.

    @JockBok-25908:

    Tassies is – let’s put it this way – not exactly export quality. But in your younger days you take chances and bring it out towards the end of the evening. Nicely decanted for about an hour. My mates didn’t even know the difference. :D

  • 25921.CharlesM: Reply to this comment

    Thanks JockBok, I’ll make a note of that !!

    @cane-25906:

    It’s not so bad mate. People are nice and the climate not as extreme as Chad or as humid as West Africa, so I’m quite content. We’re quite remote and we’ve got an hours travel this evening to get to a decent restaurant, but another hour or so and it’s Dakar or the sea resorts. Everything available also including cheese doritos and a decent salsa makes it a very nice posting :)
