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, they like protesting but can they toyi-toyi?

@Treehugger-26400:
They love to protest, strike and complain
You should see how often they write letters to the newspapers
They believe in the “squeeky wheen gets oil” principle
The strikes never turn violent though, only a few walking around with placards

@nortierd-26395: Hi Nortie, not a cyclist myself but heard that joke yesterday morning on the local radio station KFM. It was told by Deon Bing, the surf reporter!
I enjoyed it too !!

The West Coast people are also different, more laid back and very liberal, the original bunny huggers
It’s also called the Left Coast with good reason, from Cali, through Oregon and Washington and very much so in BC

@cane-26421: Not to worry mate, my cousin should breathe some life into it when he hopefully puts in a match-winning performance for the Black Caps later today…
Will make amends for his temporary loss of concentration last Saturday!!!

BJ?
22 Jan 2013, 12:43 pm
@cane-26423: No, Grant Elliott.
He’s my cousin’s son so I guess that makes him my second cousin. Was most chuffed when I saw that he’d made it back into the NZ one-day squad after so long although I still believe he’s a far better five day player.
22 Jan 2013, 12:50 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-26424:
He plays for the Local Naenae Club, just over the railway line from my house.
22 Jan 2013, 13:01 pm
@cane-26425: My my, what a small world!
His folks are still here in Jhb but I haven’t been in contact with them for quite a while now, I owe my cousin a long-overdue phonecall/visit!!!

C’mon Grant, stick Lower Hutt on the world map today!!!

Have to laugh at the pom press, this has already happened in so many places, here it is a big thing, hope these poms that do it are not peopals but serious activists and not attention seekers.

Is this place still alive? I thought I was going to get the last word in – just checking.

Proteas falling apart.
22 Jan 2013, 22:31 pm
Shocking performance by the Proteas ODI squad
This sorry lot have no interest & pride in ODIs (& if they don’t, they should be granted their wish)
So shocking it demands a corpse:
And it’s there for all to see – a fish rots from the head down
AB not captaincy/vice captaincy material
(Jeesh, how they can do with Johan Botha!)

Well done, Black Caps – well deserved!

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
