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.

Ek kyk nou die geveg en daar word pertinent gese dat die boksgeveg van twaalf rondtes vir n titel is,daar was nie gese tien rondtes nie.
sunni bin williams het nie eers die inbors gehad om te appeleer toe die geveg na tien rondtes oor verklaar is nie.
ag nee wat dieou is nie n rolmodel nie.

whatever makes you feel a little less than miserable inside.
@Atlas-28427:
what a sad way to build a reputation, like their rugby team.

@the curse-28452: JUST EXPLAIN THE MISSING 2 ROUNDS.
THAT’S ALL WE ASK.

SBW had a good fight.
Botha lost 4/5 of his last fights.
Today’s fight can not be really counted.
It’s like stopping a rugby game after 67 minutes when your team is front.
laughable….
Or a cricket game after 42 overs….. sorry….. we decided we’re going home….
ridiculous …..
8 Feb 2013, 15:31 pm
Robzim…. what’s your beef with Botha? Boxers are supposed to be zef!
8 Feb 2013, 15:32 pm
@shooter-28458: you’ll have to ask those who were in charge of the fight, we spectators are just as shocked as you are that the two rounds werent completed..
but its a laugh thinking that all us kiwis had a hand in the fight being shortened…
but then, anytime a kiw beats a SA, we all know it wasnt fair and square, there had to be some subterfuge, because SAs NEVER lose to kiwis, right?

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died
8 Feb 2013, 15:34 pm
Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows
Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you’ve been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows you’ve been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows
8 Feb 2013, 15:34 pm
And everybody knows that it’s now or never
Everybody knows that it’s me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you’ve done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe’s still pickin’ cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows
And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
Everybody knows that it’s moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there’s gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows
And everybody knows that you’re in trouble
Everybody knows what you’ve been through
From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
To the beach of Malibu
Everybody knows it’s coming apart
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows
8 Feb 2013, 15:35 pm
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows

@the curse-28461: it’s a bit fishy…. 2 rounds fishy… that’s what I’m saying……
that’s all….. just look at the match….. the way it was going… the context….
if it was mayweather and pacman….. and the fight got stopped… the guy who lost would’ve had the most reason to complain…. because………… he FB was behind… he felt he had a chance still…….
8 Feb 2013, 15:39 pm
@the curse-28461: you were shocked???? i think the word you’re looking for is…… relieved.
>>>>
“but then, anytime a kiw beats a SA, we all know it wasnt fair and square, there had to be some subterfuge, because SAs NEVER lose to kiwis, right?”
not anytime…. only when it so obvious…
8 Feb 2013, 15:41 pm
i was out for the afternoon, heard the result, saw the highlights and am watching the rerun now…
the commentators have said 4 times already ” this bout, scheduled for 12 rounds….” etc… at about the 9th round now…
8 Feb 2013, 15:41 pm
Today reminded me, yet again, that Kiwis will do anything in their power to cheat a system.
Anything.
8 Feb 2013, 15:43 pm
@shooter-28467: nah, every time in rugby you guys lose for reasons other then being good enough…
I honestly couldnt care less who won this fight, Id much prefer SBWs concentrated on playing rugby, where he could be a global superstar..
8 Feb 2013, 15:51 pm
@the curse-28470: we’re takling about today mate.
off course you wouldnt care about today….
your boy did ok… i would agree…. but then the match-fixing killed the honour he should have recieved…. he would’ve had more honour in losing this fight with a knock out, than winning in this fashion’.
did you hear the crowd booiing him in the end there?
8 Feb 2013, 15:55 pm
and to be sure…. SBW did good. Gave it a good shot too.
Hahahaha. just heard the post match speeches… says it all. :Lol:

> i remember him knocking Reechee out cold with a ‘head tackle’ in a bulls – crusaders match hehe
That was the same game they’ve kicked off on Habana where he caught the ball and ran through to score
They didn’t kick on him again in that game
Ettienne would have been a great Bok centre as well
9 Feb 2013, 12:01 pm
@victoriabok-28488:
“Ettienne would have been a great Bok centre as well”.
Was he a dirty basstard as well?

SWB has lost all his creditability as a sportsman in my books, to me he will be remembered as a cheat.
