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.

excellent post…

Where is Juan Smith in the world? Anyone know? I watched something on ESPN today, and was thinking, what are the chances he makes a comeback still?
Maybe next world cup… doing an Os? FDP, Jacque Fourie, Juan Smith and Bakkies. The senior insurance policy.

i see you have a blackberry… i don’t know enough about them to know whether they have apps… but several posters have them so i hope someone can advise you…

@shooter-26656:
You don’t support the Bulls
Botswana eh?
Nice country

@shooter-26664:
there was something before the holidays i think… quoting juan saying he’s not done yet… and wants to see if he can come back…
but where he is and what his fitness is like… i haven’t a clue…
25 Jan 2013, 18:02 pm
@victoriabok-26667: ja, leka. no problemos.
Snaaks hoe jy aan die Bulle dink. Selfs al probeer jy nie.
25 Jan 2013, 18:02 pm
@ufo-26668:
Wasn’t he going to France?
25 Jan 2013, 18:05 pm
@ufo-26668: dankie ufo! Would be great if he can play one/ two seasons still. Depending if he can break back – like he says, he knows it will be tough… But I think, like the guy on tv said…. he’s got the minerals…

@victoriabok-26670:
there was talk of that bud… but i didn’t see anything confirmed… unless i just missed it…
but then surely we’d be hearing reports of how he’s doing over there…?
25 Jan 2013, 18:08 pm
@victoriabok-26667: like canada eh…
25 Jan 2013, 18:09 pm
@shooter-26671:
hehehe…
yip… juan has the minerals… in minefuls…
would be great to see him back in the bok jersey for a season or even too if we’re really lucky…!!
25 Jan 2013, 18:10 pm
@ufo-26668:
> but where he is and what his fitness is like…
I’ll play an unfit but uninjured Juan every day of the week before superfit spiertier Spies
25 Jan 2013, 18:10 pm
@victoriabok-26672: gelukkig is die bewyse daar – mens noem dit bekers -per jare deelgeneem in die Curriebeker en in die Super reeks….
25 Jan 2013, 18:12 pm
@shooter-26677:
Ek dog jy’s ‘n Stormer?
25 Jan 2013, 18:15 pm
@victoriabok-26676:
the choice will never be between the two of them bud…
i see pierre wants his jersey back… and i wish him all the best… having him, ryan, duane and arno dooking it out in top form will be a pleasure to see… and can only be good for the boks…
hopefully he comes back with a streek of mongrel in him…
25 Jan 2013, 18:15 pm
@victoriabok-26678: ok… ek het so gesien ja.
maar die Superrugby beker(s) het my seker weggegee ne’
25 Jan 2013, 18:16 pm
@ufo-26679: iets! moet gebeur tussen sy ore.
25 Jan 2013, 18:16 pm
@shooter-26674:
Hell yeah
25 Jan 2013, 18:19 pm
@victoriabok-26682: ja, i was there in 99 for 6 weeks. too cold! nee dankie. vandag was 39C’s hier, maar ek vat dit eerder.
25 Jan 2013, 18:20 pm
@shooter-26681:
hehe… here’s hoping it does…!
i’d just love to see him play how with all think he could if he got more aggressive…
25 Jan 2013, 18:20 pm
@shooter-26680:
Ja die verskil tussen deelneem en bekers
Jammer daaroor, ek het aangeneem jy’s een, dis ‘n maklike fout om te maak
Die site is 90% Strormers, 6% Sharks en dan ‘n paar van ons en ‘n paar Leeus en een of twee Cheetahs
En dan die bi-sek.suele wat beide die Stormers en die Kings ondersteun

@shooter-26683:
whereabouts in botswana shooter…?
25 Jan 2013, 18:22 pm
@ufo-26679:
Unfortunately he will get it back by default, Duane will get injured, he plays hard
Unlike Spies who shuns contact
Arno should get a run
25 Jan 2013, 18:22 pm
@shooter-26683:
Wat het jy hier gedoen?
Waar was jy?
25 Jan 2013, 18:24 pm
@victoriabok-26685:
you’re exaggerating there just smidgen…
if that was the case the on-stie polls would always withe stormers… oddly enough they very seldom do…
there’re plenty of sharks and bulls supporters too…
25 Jan 2013, 18:25 pm
yikes… mistakes
on-stie polls would always favour the stormers…
25 Jan 2013, 18:25 pm
@ufo-26684:
> i’d just love to see him play how with all think he could if he got more aggressive…
Him more aggressive?
We’ve been holding our breaths for that to happen for so long we’ve give up
One day we’ll say of Spies he had all the attributes but never quite delivered, like Andre Pretorius
25 Jan 2013, 18:26 pm
@ufo-26689:
They’re the most vocal then and post the most, excluding Bakkies that is
25 Jan 2013, 18:29 pm
@ufo-26686: don’t really want to elaborate much. The Tuli Block though.
@victoriabok-26688: From Toronto to Vancouver via Edmonton. Backpacking.

@ufo-26690:
on stie ??
Sounds like jumping a Swede in Campsbay
“He was on Stig like stink on s…t”
25 Jan 2013, 18:32 pm
@victoriabok-26687:
let’s see how the season unfolds and how pierre does…
obviously i’d prefer duane to keep the jersey… but tough competition for it can only help the boks…
and heck this year the boks gotta start sorting the ABs out… i’m sick of being owned by them… time we started turning the tables again… and i’m hoping like heck that heyneke starts doing that… we’ll even give him the freedom of cape town if we can beat the blacks home and away….
(yeah popps, hurri, ranga, china, cane et al… that’s a compliment…)
25 Jan 2013, 18:33 pm
@shooter-26693:
sorry bud… i understand… i shouldn’t have asked… but i really enjoy the place… swamps one of the best places on earth…
@victoriabok-26694:
ag nee…. two tries and still get it wrong…
25 Jan 2013, 18:34 pm
Rory really lost it in the last over.
25 Jan 2013, 18:34 pm
ok. when this thing gets over the 26700 i’m out for while
25 Jan 2013, 18:34 pm
@shooter-26693:
Which time of year?
It can get very hot in summer, and these houses are built to keep heat in.
Have you been to Victoria?
25 Jan 2013, 18:35 pm
only 3300 to go
