Andrew Hore
OK, a special for the Ex-Voldy bloggers… we will keep this Hore Thread ALIVE for a while.. so go ahead, get your records!!
Former All Blacks hooker Andrew Hore has answered an S.O.S. to come out of retirement and provide injury cover for Southland.
The loss of veteran hooker Jason Rutledge has left the Stags with problems in the middle of their front row.
That saw skipper Jamie Mackintosh put a call in to his mate Hore to twist his arm to help out in Invercargill.
Rugby Heaven
And it seems to have worked. The Stags have confirmed Hore is training with their squad, but will only get involved in match play if one of their two remaining hookers gets injured.
Hore retired from top rugby last year after 83 tests for the All Blacks, though he has played matches for the British Barbarians and a World XV this year against international sides.
Hore’s previous NPC play has been with Taranaki and Otago.
The Stags have gotten off to a good start in this year’s NPC, with wins over Bay of Plenty and North Harbour.
They host neighbours Otago on Saturday.

361 to the 1000 mark from here Atlas.
still a tough road ahead.
Andrew play 83 tests for NZ.
36 as a Sub.
Not bad really, considering he was always head to head with St Kevin.
He also Captained NZ once.
That was in the 2011 RWC World Cup Pool match against Canada.
Which gives him a 100% success rate as Captain.
Andrew scored 8 Test tries for NZ.
@ cane:

Drinking a brandy on you
None of those tries were against The Republic of Eye Gougers.
Andrew played 14 Tests against SA and was in the winning Team on 8 occasions.
