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.

As far as i can remember Jannie had official approval to do some marketing in his free time during the tour.He was also described by the New Zealanders as the best springbok manager of all time (Jannie is extremely charasmatic and obviously made a huge impression on them)
I believe he has made up with his son after quite a long battle. His son (Jean) eventually went into partnership with Ernie Els (wine industry)- not sure how that turned out.

The deal with Newscorp was for the creation os Sanzar for USD 550 mio. Which was agreed upon.
Which allowed for the start of Super rugby and the Tri-Nations. Louis Luyt had his son in on the final negotiations – purely for on-the-job training.
Our Louis then pushed the price to USD 555 mio. When asked later why he wanted the extra USD 5 mio. He replied “just to prove I can, and to teach my son never settle on the final figure.”
That’s our Louis.

Admin Law 301, prescribed case Sarfu vs ThewholefarkinrepublicofSA. Most boring,tedious case in the law archives. Luyt’s most prob still fighting that case in the hereafter.

To Madiba’s credit – as always. Those were Luyt’s power tripping days.
1 Feb 2013, 21:41 pm
so uncle Louis was a piepie joller when Nelson was a fully grown adult –
Nelson is 94 years old
Louis died at age 80
Louis tried to take Nelson on head to head.. strong arm stuff trying to show the world what a big breek he was
check who got in the last laugh now
perhaps Xhosa genetics are stronger than boerseun after all.

I reckon Louis is trying to make amends big time at the pearly gates before his next big shangrila showdown.

Have you just come to kick a hore to death?
Or do you have ulterior motives?
1 Feb 2013, 21:50 pm

1 Feb 2013, 21:53 pm
@skopdiekan-27961:
Wouldn’t be surprised if the condolences message is already with the Luyt family. From Madida.
Madiba doesn’t bear grudges. Unlike us misfits.
1 Feb 2013, 21:53 pm
@skopdiekan-27965: come on skop, luyt would’ve made you cower too, probably even feed you chops & you’d enjoy them

It’s your move.

@I am a stormer-27967: After his appearance in the Pretoria High
Court, Mandela said he still had
misgivings about being subpoenaed to
appear in court.
“I have grave reservations about the
order (subpoena), but we have to obey
the constitution because it does not give
immunity to a president or anybody else,”
he told reporters.
On Thursday, Mandela clashed with
SARFU lawyer Mike Maritz, accusing him
of trying to portray the president as a
liar.
On Friday Mandela charged: “Mr. Maritz
is an expert in distorting what was said.
He is twisting me . . . .”
However, Mandela’s avuncular side was
also in evidence as he warmly greeted
SAFRU’s legal team and spent some time
with Luyt in seemingly light-hearted
conversation in the courtroom.
He admitted after his appearance that he
had expected to be grilled, but the
lawyers had made his testimony more
comfortable.
“They make it easy, even though the
cross-examination is gruelling,” said
Mandela, who stood throughout his six-
hour testimony.

@Transformation-27968: never not a f’ng chance.. Luyt wouldn’t stand toe to toe with me for one second.. thought he could rough up Nelson with his boeremag style bravado .. when Nelson was already seeking to get out the hot seat and wind down his public life … big bloody breek.. check where all big magga breeks wind up.. exactly the same place little breek nobodies do after all is said and done.
1 Feb 2013, 22:02 pm
Nelson had way too much class for grootkop Louis.. I reckon ou Louis is ruing all his stupid big breek bravado strong arm magga style mogul actions right now
1 Feb 2013, 22:03 pm
@Transformation-27971:
It wasn’t Luyt’s most comfortable hour. The oke was very brash – and slow on apologies.
But the thing is – he got things done.
1 Feb 2013, 22:06 pm
@skopdiekan-27972:
> Luyt wouldn’t stand toe to toe with me for one second
We all know, he’s dead

skittle sticks is for the birds.. whoever get their frilly lace panties in a knot about that nonentity of a sport code don’t have much clue about what sporting excellence is actually about.. its a soft sport for soft heads and soft bodies.. it don’t take much class to be a top rate skittle sticks player there are far more stringent and exacting sport codes that leave that sissy sport in the shade.

@skopdiekan-27977:
Oh really.
You against Dale Steyn?
Don’t bother with the helmet, gloves or box! You’ll be in control. You’ll be cool.
Jissus, I’ll sell tickets to watch this. Mark my words.

@Transformation-27968: you reckon you would have been chicken of mafiosi Luyt.. did he have that much of an aura of invincibility hovering over your ja baas nee baas drie sakkies vol baas head?
some dictators like to think they’re invincible till nature teaches them otherwise.
1 Feb 2013, 22:13 pm
When walking out to face up to a quick bowler…firing in balls that can cause you hurt…the butterflies are going off…an awesome feeling when you get bat to ball and you get down the other end.

@Jeraldjay-27978:
He even kept Rian Oberholzer on a puppy lead – saying he taught Rian everthing he knows. But that Rian doesn’t know everything luyt knows.

@I am a stormer-27981: its a chickenshit kinda game.. I played the boring nonentity waste of time at school .. was far more fun diving into the swimming pool after all the bloody wasted afternoon out at long off or long stop or square leg or silly f’ing mid on was mercifully over. If ever there was a stupid colonial arse end of nowhere sport devised. skittle sticks is it.

tennis there’s a point… badminton there is a point.. even lawn bowls there is a point to prove…. skittle sticks.. f’all point whatso f’ng ever… even golf got some point at the end of the dizzy gillespie show .. but skittle sticks.. just a totally wasted 5 days of boring nothingness.
