Hore set for hefty ban

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.

    ROUND 6: SBW looking very fresh. What an athlete. Botha has some power but Williams taking the clean shots with ease. Jab, jab, jab goes Williams. SBW with a big right. Botha settles it down like the veteran he is but he’s being outjabbed 3 to 1. Their swinging now. Botha’s best round so far but he’s still not winning it.

    ROUND 5: Jab working beautifully for SBW. Botha is charging in and changing the punches from high to low.

    ROUND 4: That one was split. It’s turning into a close contest. High intensity heavyweight boxing. Both throwing a couple of good punches and SBW copping some and handling it.
    ROUND 3: Williams on top. Lovely shot from Williams and Botha responds in kind with one of his own. SBW is boxing, not fighting. Good stuff, he’s winning the rounds.

    ROUND 2: Botha with a cut, just below the eyebrow…. still really settling into this one. Long left jab from Williams right at the end of the round was the only shot in anger.

    ROUND 1: Botha with a massive swagger into the ring. Buffalo Soldier playing. It’s on!!! Botha with 8kg on SBW. SBW chiseled – what a surprise.

    Was Fransie’s tactic to exhaust the boy wonder, work out his moves and then take him further than he has gone before? Only to knock him out….?

    Drawn him in?

    ummmmmmmmmmmmm

    ROUND 7: SBW whips out the left hand and doubles it up. Botha gets the mouth working and Sonny tries to load up and shut it but Botha knew what was coming. Uncharted territory now for Williams and Botha is slowly getting back into this. That’s seven down. Uneventful that one as both take a wee breather.

    If SBW loses his cool, Botha might get lucky here.

    ROUND 8: Botha rocks the head back of Williams. Sonny felt that one. Botha comes over the top with one but SBW ducks it well. Every time Botha searches for the big one Sonny backs away or slides sideways beautifully. Four to go.

    ROUND 9: Both connect with a jab at the same time. Williams has been great on the inside. He’s boxing so much better than his last five – he’s evolved massively. Good right from Botha. And again. Ref takes a shot (oops) Williams with a straight right hand. And again. Williams getting hit again. And again. Blood coming from SBW’s nose. Botha hits him after the break. One point deduction. SBW is badly hurt. He’s hanging on… he’s going to go…. no. He makes it to the bell.

    ROUND 10: Can Williams make it? Ref calling it the last round but it’s a 12 round fight. Williams fighting back and Botha hits hi harder. It is the final round!!!! Controversy!!!! Botha needs a knock out. SBW needs to hold on. SBW into a huge right hand… he’s gone. His legs are gone. How’s he standing??? He is a freak. He’s been hammered. He’s bent over in two nearly. Docked a point for too much holding. Botha is head hunting. Willams out… hang on Sonny hang on… He hangs on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Victorious, probably but under siege.
