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.

Luckily I close Commenting on a Thread after 7 days (new Comments)… well it actually happens automatically here… hahaha
After 7 Days we have a 100 or so new Threads up anyway.

We cannot rewrite history Nortie.

We leave HG names there………………………………………there is more shame that way.
Now his name lives forever,
as an example to small children, on how not to lead your life.
The need to close Commenting after 7 Days is a well-thought-through one, because if you leave commenting open for too long it opens many opportunities for Spammers and “Crawlers” to cause havoc on a site.
Just so as you know it is not done with any bad intent or to prevent normal conversation…
@ Stormersboy:
Nortie WORKS……………………………………………………………………f*#k. Amazing.
But not as an Employee of some poor soul………………………….surely not.
😉
Folks, I am out to Midrand, to go buy some IT parts and stuff, then off to Pretoria, to Loftus and 2 clients… chat tonight again!
@ Stormersboy:
😆
@ cane:
He is a full time rugby prefect and a part time policeman.
😆
@ gunther:
Groot has gone off to purchase supplies…………..pencils and stuff I think,
leaving Nortie in charge.
He has already warned you once.
Watch your back.

@ BrumbiesBoy:
you couldn’t even get a 69er right Bumby.

@ cane:
I’m on thin ice.
One slip and I’m in the Johmnie Walker.

Only PonyBoy can stuff up a 69
And no, that’s not peanut butter on his forehead
@ gunther:
There are worse ways to die gunner.
Thirst for example.
@ cane:
I see Nils’ name there on the roll of honor as well.
He still occasionally posts on SARugby, wonder why he hasn’t come over, we have Blues and Hurricanes posting here, surely there is a need for a Cantab supporter as well?
Even if it is one that hails from Latvia
@ cane:
Speaking of thirst I trust you are slaking yours with some of The Rainbow Nation’s finest?

I think here on R-T ………………………………a 00 should be given the same prestige as the 000 had on Voldy. (for The Hore Thread).
Given that groot, has said, he will take no shit from us, and “no new postings on a Thread after 7 days”.
So as we close in on 100,
I cane,
proclaim that I will take that milestone.
And I will do it, not for myself, not for my Province. But for my Country.
And I will do it black type. Just to reinforce my Nationalistic jingoism.
so lets see who is about……………………………………..Lion4ever, robzim, gunther, nortierd, grootblousmile, GoBokkeAndIreland, MacroBok, MacroBok, Stormersboy, 8 Guests, 9 Bots.
The Pakistani Bookies have 9Bots at 16 to 1.
@ nortierd:
@ 75
I see Transformation was also a 3x winner
Pity he is not here to stop people from mocking the EP Kings
He would have kept you busy though (in your capacity as full time prefect)
@ cane:
I suddenly feel the need to start posting on this thread . . .

Transie is sitting in Parliament right now in his red overalls.
@ gunther:
Not tonight gunner.
I am keeping my mind clear and my reflexes quick.
(actually I’m sipping a NZ rose. But don’t worry, I’ll be back to keeping the economy of SA afloat next week.)
@ charlesm:
Charlie Manson shows up just in time for a show down.

I hope Lilly aka Hater is not sitting on his lap in parliament.
Everything goes there these days.

A New Zealand rose?
What does Mrs Cane think about that?
@ GoBokkeAndIreland:
Try typing in green. Go on make my day.
@ cane:
The head prefect alerted me 😆
