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.
Am Khumalo’s tuck shop in case anyone gets peckish.
And of course the “fire pool” for the aquatic events.
The 100m butterfly in the fire pool should draw some attention
khulubuse can be the crash mat for the pole vault.
All in all I think we have it covered.
A suitable gift from the father of the nation.
I think we could bring this one on under budget.
@ nortierd:
That’s a pretty big butterfly.
Even by presidential standards.
AB is bowling.
I can smell a bookie.
He really is quite bald.
AB that is…. Not the bookie.
Although there’s no reason why the bookie shouldn’t be bald as well.
Same as king Kallis?
Maybe there is an unwritten rule that the best batsman in the Proteas team must suffer from premature hairloss.
Maybe it’s some kind of Faustian deal with the devil?
Yes I will make you the Proteas best batsman but in return I’m going to want nearly all of your hair.
It’s a deal most people would make though.
Surely?
I mean if you are such a good batsman you
Are going to spend most of your time under a helmet anyway.
So nobody would notice.
Unless you were silly enough to bowl yourself.
Tiger Woods made that deal with golf….think there’s a clause that if you get klapped with a 5 iron for infidelity you lose your aura, I suppose in cricketing terms it’s if you get klapped with a Gray Nichols you start getting ducks?
I must say it’s a good thing the Zimbos can’t afford floodlights.
The gleam from AB’s dome would be quite disconcerting.
@ nortierd:
Indeed Nortier.
Some say his missus had a better long game than he ever had.
48 posts to go, unless Gunther slipped another few in while I was typing out this one, which seems reasonable under the circumstances, especially as I am a slow typer ( typist, is typist not female? ) and also considering that I am taking moer long to get this post finished.
So maybe more likely 46 or 45 posts left to get to the 1000?

Don’t marry the nanny, but if she is so hot that you feel you must, don’t mess with the nanny.
When she was working for the other golfers she was paid to put up with shit ( the kind found in diapers of course), but if she’s your wife, you will pay if you give her shit
@ nortierd:
To be fair she was Jesper Parneviks nanny so she was fair game.
@ nortierd:
The upside of marrying a nanny is that you know she gives good diaper.
Another Zim run out.
They look as confused out in the middle as the EFF do when discussing Parlaiment etiquette.
And now she is the richest nanny in the world.
