Kenya kill off Kiwis and Boks

Kenya kill off Kiwis and Boks

Kenya stunned the Sevens All Blacks on the same day they edged South Africa. But they just failed in the final against England.

Kenya were a second away from a historic first series tournament win but England turned the ball over with time up on the clock and scored to level 19-all. The heartbreak was evident and the Kenyans folded in the first minute of extra time when England scored to take the win and the title 24-19.

Kenya led 19-12 at the break and controlled the second half and seemed to have done enough for a glorious result but two sin-binnings in the last three minutes proved costly, as did confusion about the time left. The televisions clock showed time up but the stadium clock showed 25 seconds. It was in those 25 seconds that Kenya coughed up the ball and England took full advantage.

Hosts New Zealand lead Kenya 14-0 at half-time, but the most popular team at the tournament were stunning in their comeback to score after the hooter to tie it up 14-all.

And then the more physical and desperate Kenyans scored within a minute in the sudden death to win 21-14.

Earlier Kenya won the quarter-final 21-20 against a Bok team that scored four tries but failed to land a kick.

On day one the Boks only won one match in three but went through on points difference. In the quarter-final four tries would usually be enough for victory but Philip Snyman had an awful day with the boot and couldn’t find his radar.

New Zealand, beaten in the semi-final, were too good for Australia 24-5 in the quarter-final. The Kiwis produced their best tournament performance in the third and fourth play-off, beating Samoa 17-7.

Samoa and England, the two most impressive teams, met in the semi-final and England won 21-19.

Corne Hendricks (two) and Stephan Dippenaar gave the Boks a 15-7 lead at the break before Willy Ambaka reduced the lead to just one point. Chris Dry stretched the Boks lead to six points but with two minutes to Ambaka scored his second and Biko Adema added the two points for a famous African win.

    She could feel the sweat on her forehead, between her breasts and trickling down the small of her back.

    She was getting near to the end. Her heart was pounding, her face was flushed.

    Then she moaned, softly at first, then began to groan louder.

    Finally, totally exhausted, she let out an almighty scream and shouted:

    IRB ‘not impressed’ with drunken Sevens
    Last updated 11:53 20/09/2012

    Drunk Wellington Sevens fans have left the
    IRB unimpressed and there are calls for the
    concourse to become liquor-free.

    Commentator Keith Quinn, who says
    behaviour of crowds is getting progressively
    worse each year, has called for a dry-zone in
    the Westpac Stadium concourse from late
    afternoon to early evening during the
    tournament.

    People would be able to buy alcohol in the
    concourse but would have to take it back in
    to the stadium to drink.

    It would create a situation where people
    were there to watch a game and drink, as
    opposed to just getting drunk, he said.

    He had talked to IRB Sevens tournament
    operations manager Beth Coulter after the
    last Wellington Sevens.

    “[She] gave the impression to me they were
    not impressed with the behaviour of the
    Wellington crowd.”

    While there was no talk of Wellington losing
    the Sevens, Quinn pointed out there were
    many places – including Auckland, Europe,
    Argentina, and Suva – which would like to
    take it off us.

    In the past two years he had personally had
    bad experiences with drunk punters.
    Once, he and sports commentator John
    McBeth had been walking from the stadium
    and held back from a “rowdy” group of 25
    people at traffic lights, knowing they would
    be recognised and harassed.

    In another incident, McBeth had to help a
    taxi driver remove a girl from a taxi who,
    having just vomited, had jumped in his taxi
    and offered the driver “sexual payment”
    instead of money for a trip to Wainuiomata.

    had they trusted their defence and not infringed for those two yellow cards.

    “Five people were arrested and 30 evicted from the stadium on the second day of the Wellington Sevens, police say.

    Despite the arrests Inspector Simon Perry said police staff at the stadium have noticed a higher standard of behaviour than in previous tournaments.

    Although there were more evictions today than on Friday, “improved measures” regarding drunk people entering the stadium had a positive effect on the crowd, he said. ”

    An extreme motocross rider performed with a broken jaw last night after being “king hit” while out on the town.

    British-born Luke Smith, who lives in Stanmore Bay, is one of the few Kiwis to star in Nitro Circus Live, performing in Auckland last night.

    Smith was with tour manager Derek Rigby and Australian rider Andy Buckworth on Thursday night when the group was attacked while getting kebabs in Fort St.

    Nitro Circus promoter Michael Porra said the daredevils were frightened of walking down the street in Auckland.

    “These are all wild tough guys and they are too afraid to walk down the street in Auckland,” Porra said.

    “It’s a great shame for this wonderful city.”

    is it any worse then the street crime in Joburg on any given day?

    you are pathetic, but I will start posting crime stats, seeing as thats acceptable..

    “Johannesburg – A man accused of selling drugs to school children was arrested in Umbilo, Durban, the Hawks said on Saturday.

    Captain Paul Ramaloko said the 37-year-old man was arrested on Friday. On his arrest drugs including dagga, magic mushrooms and Cat – which he apparently sold to children attending a high school near his residence – were confiscated.

    The drugs had an estimated street value of R40 000. A further R38 000 in cash was confiscated from the house. He would appear in the Durban Magistrate’s Court on Monday facing charges of drug dealing.”

    seems South Africa has alcohol related issues to Fern, Bakkies..

    It is estimated that up to 30% of general hospital admissions in South Africa are directly or indirectly related to alcohol use.

    A clinical assessment of general hospital admissions found alcohol to be a contributing factor in general trauma cases: in 38% of the admissions in the Cape metropolitan area and 49% in rural communities alcohol was found to be a contributing factor.

    48% of trauma patients admitted to the casualty department of the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in Soweto on a Saturday night were found to be intoxicated.

    Almost 80% of all assault patients – both male and female – presented at an urban hospital Trauma Unit in Cape Town were either found to be under the influence of alcohol or injured because of alcohol related violence. In another study, over 50% of non-natural deaths received at state mortuaries in Cape Town had high levels of blood alcohol concentrations.

    58% of people fatally injured in train related trauma (who either fell from or walked in front of trains) in Cape Town had high blood alcohol concentrations.

    60% of pedestrians involved in collision traumas on the road and then treated in a hospital trauma unit were found to have high blood alcohol concentrations.

    Over 50% of those who had died by drowning in greater Cape Town, over a ten year period, were found to have high concentrations of alcohol in their blood stream.

  • 81.the curse: Reply to this comment

    from the same report

    76% of domestic violence in rural areas in the South-Western Cape was found to be alcohol related.

    and these are the cases that are reported, how many go UNREPORTED in SA? and how many pay their way out of trouble like Killer Bees did?

    eish, yet you two are quite happy to throw stones about NZs drinking problems, welll Im throwing them back..

    The misuse and abuse of alcohol is widespread in South African society and likely to have a large impact on the economy. A major burden is borne by the hospital care system; in particular the cost of alcohol-related trauma There has been an association between intoxication and both violent crime and suicide attempts. One hundred and four subjects (39%) had criminal convictions, the majority of which were committed while the subjects were intoxicated. The commonest alcohol-related crimes were driving related (17%) and crimes of violence (15%).

    http://www.akspublication.com/paper04_jan-jun2006.htm

    In South Africa, 76% of all deaths after interpersonal violence have been shown to be alcohol related

    so 50000 murders a year and almost 40000 of them are alcohol related?

    keep throwing them stones Bakkies, fern..

    The siblings were brutally slain in Buchanan’s fiancé’s Northcliff home in March 2008. Their horrific torture at the hands of their killers – both were bound and gagged, had their teeth pulled and darts thrown at them – shocked their family, and rocked this upmarket community.

    But for almost five years, there was little word on the investigation. Lynette had all but given up hope for justice – until the police contacted her two weeks ago, informing her that they had arrested Kenneth Schroder and Paul Mundel in Durban and Mbombela after a five-year investigation

    Cape Town –

    The teenager who has been in a coma for a week after being attacked on Durbanville’s party strip, moved unexpectedly on Wednesday, raising his hand after a group of strangers asked his mother if they could pray for him.

    He has since opened his eyes once, and begun breathing on his own.

    Jean Lambrechts, 19, was attacked and assaulted outside the Hooters bar in Edward Street in the early hours of last Saturday morning by a group of men. He and his friends had been on their way to Stones.

    Lambrechts apparently tried to reason with the men, but was hit in the jaw, beaten and kicked in the head several time, leaving him in a coma with severe head injuries.

    This claim came from Pretorius himself in response to a question by Judge Eben Jordaan.

    Jordaan said a bomb was something that caused massive damage and asked how it was possible for Pretorius to think no one could be injured.

    Pretorius answered that their targets were not among civilians and were removed from buildings and people.

    He therefore never foresaw that anyone could be killed or injured, he said.

    Jordaan asked Pretorius what he thought when he heard a woman (Soweto mother Claudia Mokone) had been killed in one of the bomb blasts.

    “I said it was the ‘blind sjambok’. It was an act of God because she must have committed sins, and that’s why God had punished her.

    “That’s the way I thought at the time,” he said.

    Pretorius admitted that even Mokone’s death did not bring him and the other bomb squad members to the realisation that their deeds were wrong.

    I thought this was a rugby blog, but you onoly need to read this thread to see that many SA’s would rather post crime stats and social ills in NZ, well, look in your own backyards first gentlemen

    you may witness a murder, a rape, a bashing, alcohol related domestic violence, gang rape etc etc etc etc..

    I can do this all day, but if you guys actually want to talk rugby, I can do that too..

    your choice of course..

    @Fern-89: ja, he is fighting a losing battle.

    @the curse-92: poops, you are far too unstable to simply discuss anything on this forum.

    if you dont like it, simply dont log on?

    but dont blame us collectively for acts of some posters you dont like.

    my theory is that you love having a reason to blast hatred and that makes you a weakling in mind and soul.

    You won’t find me worrying about posting that, I prefer not to take my work home.
    Rugby related, good six nations predictions so far, terrible Lions Challenge predictions, have no clue about the Varsity teams so going to struggle with those predictions, the Stormers lost, the Bulls won ( both those suck )
    Now, Bakkies winding you up aside, how are things?

    Itsoseng – A 15-year-old girl has been found dead in a shallow grave in Verdwaal village, Itsoseng, North West police said on Thursday.

    Following a search, her partially buried body was found on Wednesday in the bush, after she was reported missing on Sunday, Sergeant Philani Nkwalase said.

    Her parents last saw her on Friday when she went to school.

    “According to information from her fellow learner, they both went straight to a local tavern after school. It is further alleged that her fellow learner walked [her] home after midnight and that was the last time she saw her,” Nkwalase said.

    A post mortem would be conducted. No arrests had been made yet

    @i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-95: youre one to talk..

    what was the point of the post about the motocross rider, who was assaulted in Auckland, when this thread is about the Wellington sevens?

    why is Fern continually talking about alcohol problems in NZ, is there no alcohol related problems in SA? seriously?

    Kimberley – Claims have emerged that the manager at Middlepos Primary School in Calvinia has allegedly been selling alcohol from the school’s hostel.

    The DA in the Province on Wednesday expressed concern about the ongoing allegations, with the party’s provincial spokeswoman, Clivé Burger, stating that the accusations pointed to the alleged transgression having gone on for the past couple of years already.

    @i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-99: its a stereotype bakkies, one you guys seem to dislike when I generalise about Saffas…

    sure NZ has alcohol problems, but so does SA… who knows which countries is worse, but Id hazard a guess many crimes in BOTH countries related to alcohol go unreported..

    but like I said, Im happy to continue to post crime stats about SA, if thats what floats your boat, so feel free to continue

    @Fern-103: youre happy to continually go on about NZs alcohol problems, whats the difference?

    is it because youve been so emasculated by your countries complete and utter failure to do anything wirthwhile on a rugby pitch for years that you have to make yourself feel somewhat better by taking pot shots at a country thats better at the game then yours?

    hypocrite much?

  • 110.the curse: Reply to this comment

    @Fern-109: no Fern, I just dont like braggarts like yourself who remain blind to the many social ills in their own country yet can and do with monotonous regularity revel in another countries crime problems..

    Have a look at your posts on this thread, you celebrated kenyas wonderful tournament with two posts, then the rest of however many you made are all on Alcohol problems in NZ..

    its you who needs help, not I.

    I was just amazed there were no mentions of all your wonderful conquests while you were in NZ, seems rather strange that, especially when you keep telling us you plan on visiting the country again..

    NZ has social problems, like SA does, but the way you and others continuously go on about NZ youd think SA was a crime free Utopia..

    so like I said, Im happy to remind you all that your country isnt free of its own problems either, like I know my country has serious issues too..

    I realise youll fail to see the point though..

  • 111.i_love_u_bakkiesbotha: Reply to this comment

    @the curse-101:
    ok, so you dont think NZ is a little worse than SA in this regard?
    personally i think it is, but its neither here nor there.
    just my opinion.

    @the curse-108:
    point taken, i will endeavour to stay on point.
    i hope you will try to do the same.

    on a related note, your thoughts on the ‘deer velvet’ supplements case?

    @i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-111: I personally have never been to SA, so cant comment on the misuse of Alcohol in relation to NZs own misuse of alcohol… Ive seen first hand how bad it is in NZ, and it appalls me that people can treat other people that way.. Alcohol is far worse then a lot of other drugs in its overall effect on a community..

    I dont know about the deer supplement case, i rarely read the news these days, its not a good advertisement for our species..

  • 115.the curse: Reply to this comment

    @Fern-113: oh you humanitarian you, so you see it first hand in your country yet still feel it necessary to mock another country for it?

    strange logic

    amen to that, i find it shameful when grown men lose control the way they do when drunk. i have a few basic rules that applies in life, whether drunk or sober, and i stick by them.

    regarding a the deer velvet supplements, i would be interested to know the extent of its use in NZ rugby, and no its not about scoring cheap points.

  • 117.the curse: Reply to this comment

    @i_love_u_bakkiesbotha-116: like I said I havent read the story, seen your post about it in relation to Bob Charles on the Hore thread

    seriously, I think they should just allow doping and be done with it, in every sport, its use will never stop and the testing for such is always reactive…

    how many of the gold medals at the olympics, percentage wise, may have been won by people whose chemist is one step ahead of the “authorities”?

    fame, wealth, immortality are strong elixirs that can and do push people to gain an unfair advantage..

    I imagine it is rife in every sport, sadly..

    @the curse-117:
    well i can agree with you on this.
    not the ‘everyone should dope and be done with it part’ but on the fact its sadly probably a lot more widespread than we would like to admit.
    the Americans involvement as a whole in the Olympics especially, i do not consider in any good regard.

    hahaha

    isn’t recess over and don’t you have to get back to licking the windows?

    his other reasoning is he’s SA and things about NZ don’t effect hiim, so fck everyone else. it’s the same attitude many white Saffas had during apartheid. yet he gets upset when we say stuff about SA

    as I’ve always said, he is the biggest girly hypocrite on this blog
