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.

@I am a stormer moffie
“the women on this site is disgraceful.”
Despite the bad form of your verb, I totally agree with that sentiment.
Am I to believe you have seen the many ‘works’ from distances of many, many miles?
And do you know for a fact they have had that ‘eina’ experience of a real woman?
Not so according to their advertisements.

@jet jungle-26297:
Why not try Soweto to see whether you will still be breathing after the event?
I have been there and I am still breathing and not silent about rampant neo-racism in rugby.

Since Goosen was found guilty and suspended for taking performance enhancing drugs it seems the numbers have increased.
!8/62 is about 30% but that is only for those who have taken drugs that could lead to death.
What about less damaging drugs that still enhance performance? That is still cheating through drug use.
No one other than me highlighted this problem even when there were two separate cases of schoolboys attacking refs on the field after games earlier last year. There is a sad culture of ‘uppers’ imbibing and it is prevalent in the richer sections of rugby society.
Since so many are conversant with the matters I post, albeit not so copiously in the last year and nothing for the last two months of 2012, I should applaud you for reading them so avidly and keeping the E. and the T. alive in my many absences Your education is important to you and the country you reside in even if temporary.
We should soon, very soon, talk about rugby, farming and the associated slave wages paid to other members of your creator’s handiwork.
Stop sitting on the fence, at best, and /or being social cowards.

This one(of many, lately), from none other than Cunther who spent many worthless years at one or more English private school/s, is too tempting to ignore:
” Thami is undoubtedly the best glove man in SA and an inderrated batsman ”
Does that adjective in front of “batsman” mean Tsolelike is far better than ‘Karless’
Watch out the Pakistan team is around the corner. I guarantee(N.B. JeraldJ.) they will be a stronger test than the under-prepared and understaffed Black Caps.

Last but not least, there are only a very. very, very small number(1,2) of people who can link that group of 4 or 5 persons and point an accusing, angry finger at the sanctimonious arse-slappers and mention ” Opportunistic China” purchasing Africa(economic) and comment on the economics of a few countries and adequately use the French language and more and more unbalanced tripe to sow ideas in support of ‘apartheid’.
Racism, especially S.African white style ‘Apartheid’ is right up there with Nazism. i challenge you to tell Nazi hunters, even today, to get over it and label them Nazis because they are stiil exposing and hunting down the evil ones.
As for “It is done. It is gone.” , farewell then but if you go back on this site you should see I penned the words ” If you believe in freedom, it’s dying” some time ago.

@ET.-26302: Wow you mean you went to soweto sh*tscared that you not gonna make it out alive, and when you did you wear it as a badge of honour. Dont you think thats taking your jokes a bit far to insunuate that just because you looked different than them you were not gonna survive that ordeal and might be killed or something. No wonder you live in America now, land of the brave. Jou ou grensvegter. Ek lag gou weer vir jou maar moet nou gaan slaap.

hectic flooding in the kruger park… one of my favourite places on the planet… (strictly at off-peak times though)…
shouldn’t affect too many animals though… but some visitors plans have been swept away…
if anyone wants to see… have a look at this link…
http://www.latestsightings.com/kruger-national-park-floods-2013/
there’s lots of of pics which are all very similar but if you wait for them all to load… waaaaaay down the page is a montage of 4 pics showing the tamboti river turning from a dry sandy bed to a bank to bank raging torrent in 8 minutes…
search for the words “Rebirth of the river at Tamboti camp” will take you to the right place…
amazing stuff…
and a reminder to us that no matter how arrogant we human beings get…
mother nature always has the ability to spank our collective and individual behinds…!!

Wanted: ‘Adventurous woman’ to give birth to Neanderthal man – Harvard professor seeks mother for cloned cave baby
Professor George Church of Harvard Medical School believes he can reconstruct Neanderthal DNA
His ambitious plan requires a human volunteer willing to allow the DNA to be put into stem cells, then a human embryo

“New Zealand homes became less affordable than Australia in 2012 as constrained land supply and government levies, combined with low borrowing costs, pushed prices higher, according to a survey.
The median home price in New Zealand’s major urban centers rose to 6.7 times gross annual median household income from 6.4 times a year earlier …”

gotta love Prof Jonathan
this is the no b-s honesty we need in South Africa
Prof Jansen: I am ashamed of SA
Free State – University of the Free State chancellor Professor Jonathan Jansen has told first year students he is ashamed of South Africa, it was reported on Monday.
“I’m ashamed of South Africa. It’s an absolute disgrace that you can pass matric with a mark of 30 percent. (Education Minister Angie) Motshekga is making a giant mistake by boasting about the matric pass rate. It’s an absolute disgrace,” Jansen said, according to Beeld newspaper.
He cautioned students not to approach him with “sad stories and excuses like love problems,” as it was a waste of time.
“I always make time for students, but before you make an appointment, my secretary looks at your academic record. If you’ve failed a subject, I’m not going to waste my time with you,” he told 4000 first-year students.
Jansen said this year’s first year students were the brightest in the university’s 109-year history.
“You all are my children, and parents should be strict. If you pick up a stone and throw it on campus, I’ll expel you. If you hit someone, I’ll expel you. If you’re angry, I’ll expel you. If you treat a woman disrespectfully, I’ll expel you,” he warned.
“You may be poor, but you can behave decently, my mother always said.” – Sapa

Jonathan Jansen is an imbecile in search of the truth, of which I have in spades, of course.

Ok, have to know this, what is a poepstring ? If I am going to use the expression I am going to have to know the meaning.
Can you imagine ”…name… Run around that way then just chuck the fecking net and don’t miss” my reply ”Ffs calm down or else you will pull a poepstring”
