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.

this is interesting:
Drug Free Sport New Zealand has engaged the World Anti-Doping Agency in an ongoing investigation into deer velvet supplements.
But while the medical director of both the New Zealand Rugby Union and New Zealand Cricket has warned athletes to halt use, New Zealand Golf has turned to the deer industry in an attempt to defend Kiwi icon Sir Bob Charles from “unfounded” and “unfair” suggestion of drug violations – pre-empting the verdict of the world’s top anti-doping experts.
World golf hall of famer and 1963 British Open champion Charles, 76, has endorsed deer velvet supplements for 20 years and admits personal use. But, Charles says he was unaware deer velvet naturally contains insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1).
The world anti-doping code, written by Wada, prohibits athletes from using IGF-1 at all times.
The issue came to light last week when Fijian golfer Vijay Singh and American football star Ray Lewis were also linked to the substance and the possibility they had breached drug rules.

@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-28106: Hmmmm…conspiracies again, Baks? Will have to ask cousin Grant Elliott about this one!!!
And in a lighter vein I see the Springbok cricket & soccer teams are having a good day so far today!!!
2 Feb 2013, 21:33 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-28107: Ja, pity you no longer support “Bok” cricket & soccer?
btw, can you name any soccer players from the Bok era?
PS: How’s Canberra’s cricket & soccer? Give us an update … AussieBoy
2 Feb 2013, 22:26 pm
@Angostura-28108: As you well know, I don’t support “Bok” rugby either. Having said that, and before we get into a nice debate, are you maybe insinuating that SA never had a Springbok soccer team? You strike me as quite a level headed sort of a guy, and I mostly agree with what you say.
As for your second question, it is well known that I am not a big soccer or skittle sticks fan and as such am unfortunately unable to answer your question…
I know not and care less whetther there are any “Brumbiies” soccer or skittle stick teams in Canberra but would nevertheless support them against any SA teams if there were.

hi BB, you know me, i try to leave no stones unturned where possible, for the good of us all.
Bafana on a tightrope at the moment.
looks like its gonna be penalties.
2 Feb 2013, 23:04 pm
@i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-28112: Yep, sure looks like it.
But also, the whole night I’ve been womdering where Airwolf is parked & now we even have to pay the pilot overtime before he flies Zoooomer back to Nkandla…
2 Feb 2013, 23:15 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-28109: On the contrary, South Africa was expelled from FIFA in 1963 & the last Springbok soccer team was selected & performed in 1962.
I can remember only Les Salton, Springbok centre forward – as a little boy a poster of Les, toffed out in Springbok jersey, graced my bedroom wall.
2 Feb 2013, 23:23 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-28113:
blegh, dont get me started on zooomer.
for 250 mil you’d think the Nkandla contractors coulda thrown in a chopper.
2 Feb 2013, 23:46 pm

Apparently a snowboarding accident.

@BrumbiesBoy-28120: Is this another Internet hoax?

3 Feb 2013, 21:12 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-28121: I googled ‘who died today’ and up comes this story about Eddie Murphy, dated today & all.
I then googled his name and in there was a story about his supposed death in a snowboarding accident on 28 December 2012.
Wtf?
3 Feb 2013, 23:15 pm
@BrumbiesBoy-28125:
Does he still act? He was hillarious, probably his idea of a joke!

@BrumbiesBoy-28125:
Why would you google that in the first place?

An interesting topic….Deer velvet health supplements. Don’t know much about the stuff, only that Nz exports tens of millions of dollars worth of deer velvet to China especially. The Chinese been using this stuff for thousands of years , so there must be something in it. The deer is a sensitive animal and during the rutting season the Stags hormone levels go off like Zaccy on the beers and the naturally produced growth hormone found in deer velvet is just that, a natural health potion. Should these health supplements be banned? Well they should cause them are the rules.

@BrumbiesBoy-28128: I’m not sure, but I always enjoyed his movies – a d i c kbrain of note!

If people from Poland are called Poles,
why aren’t people from Holland called Holes?
Is this the answer to “The Dutchie” vernacular often used here.

4 Feb 2013, 13:17 pm
@ufo-28138:
Don’t move towards for the light FFS ufo.
If you can’t move, close your eyes.
If you can move, run like fcck away from the light.
This is no time to experiment.
Do as you are told.
4 Feb 2013, 13:18 pm
@ufo-28138: You’re cold because it’s -20 outside… You can’t feel your feet because both your legs have been severed at the knee….and as for that light, well that’s the 2nd wave of ‘train’, tearing down the tracks to finish the job…
But wait….what’s that in the distance?????? A one man wolf pack from Wellington NZ, dressed on canary yellow, coming to save you……
Hold on hore, hold on……..SuperCane, he comes………………….bearing the gift of life.
4 Feb 2013, 13:19 pm
@cane-28137:
Not on my watch………
@ufo-28138: Not on his watch either……

@The Sharks rugby pedigree is packaged as dog food-28141:
He’s not dead yet (The Hore that is…………………………I’m sure UFO will make it).
So, where there is life, there is hope.
I do however feel we should prepare ourselves for the worst.
4 Feb 2013, 13:32 pm
@ufo-28142: Just twisted it a little there…
@ufo-28143: I will post more than a few this evening. Have a report to finish this evening, so will waste much time posting on the Hore…anything to keep from actually completing ‘said’ report.
4 Feb 2013, 13:33 pm
@ufo-28142:
You made it!
4 Feb 2013, 13:33 pm
@cane-28144: No Cane…as long as 3 good people take the leading roles…..and a few lostdumfucks add their voices to supporting roles every now and again – Hore should be fine.
