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.

hahaha…
guess that proves how slow my mobi connection is…

hey rye…
saw your question on the other thread but the answer may be easier to find on this one…
i was speaking about an app on my phone… it’s made for most smartphones… not sure which phone you have but maybe if you haven’t you can ask a friend who has…
the app is called Starwalk and costs a few bucks on iTunes or the Android store…
it is amaZING…!
it shows the sky on the phone and as you move it you can see what and where the stars, constellations and planets are…
it also shows orbiting satellites… actually moving in real time…
you can touch a star and it gives you all the info on that star…
it is quite the most unbelievably informative and fascinating app… I’ve learnt so much from it…
but I must warn you… it becomes very addictive… you’ll want to spend your time using it to look up at the stars…
not sure how your back is doing… and hope it is doing well… but this app will also work indoors… but obviously then you can’t see what it is showing you…
it is a great but.., well worth it for anyone with even the most casual interest in space… and especially for those of us whose inner child still looks around in wonder and awe, like me, at this most amazing universe we call home…
hope that helps…
if there’s anything else i can help with just shout…

bakks…
lets just keep it simple and affordable… it’s just for fun and not to cripple each other financially…
a bottle of wine will be fine…!!

Apparently there is talk of John Smit joining the Stormers (an idea that is rejected by Allister Coetzee). Can you imagine Grant10 & Skopskiet’s reactions if it actually happened?
23 Jan 2013, 21:00 pm
@Zub..there is a thread about it. You can read Grant10′s reaction first hand.
23 Jan 2013, 21:07 pm
@zub-26512:
Grant would have watched the Kings lose, and Skop would have spent Saturdays waxing his Datsun 1200
23 Jan 2013, 21:33 pm
This thread rumbles on….
The Smit at the Stormers has caused some amusement tho..

Do you think Andrew reads this thread?
The way his mind played dirty tricks on him, is like this thread.
Therapy for him.

Going to have to to light some candles for the w hore soon it seems. Thought she would kick off with a bang not a fizzle.
25 Jan 2013, 07:16 am
what page is this thread even on now?
i’ve lost track.
25 Jan 2013, 07:32 am
@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-26540: Who cares? As long as she’s still breathing that’s all that counts.
But I do agree she needs a good injection of sorts.
25 Jan 2013, 07:33 am
Andrew Hore
what you did was wrong and though i believe you deserved to be punished for it (albeit a slap on the wrist) as an individual i don’t blame you.
you are unfortunately the product of a system far greater than yourself and who’s extent and duration in time has preceded you and sadly will quite likely continue long after you.
i blame the system.

@Bakkies 26540…..doesn’t it give the page number at the bottom and top of your page on you phone or laptop. Switch to Opera Browser and in the settings go to single column view. It is also faster that the other Browsers. Use it for the laptop as well.
