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.

Crooked feed.
@ BrumbiesBoy:
Luckily your team came through today.
They were 10-0 down at one stage
Maybe it’s only fitting to hear from the man himself
@ charlesm:
Yes Charles.
And thank you for asking.
Great to see a few old names here on RT. Specially on this Thread.
In Keo.co’s long and drawn out death by lethargy, we salvaged something for ourselves.
And that was The Hore Thread.
And of that you were King.
Many toiled and never made the King Hit 000.
But they too were part of it’s magic.
Every Post a winner.
Just like today. (says the man on 99).

Pass of the week
yes yes yes
bwahahahahaha

I remember The Hore saying how he had a special connection with the du Plessis Brothers.
Saying all farmers, and men of the land had a common bond.

Yep, good solid stock…salt of the earth characters.
I enjoyed doing the story about Chris Jack a couple of weeks ago….from AB and rugby hero to working on a construction site, no airs and no graces
@ nortierd:

3 bells?

Yep, probably a 70/30 in favor of WeePee supporters
Fun times 😀
@ nortierd:
I see the ANC have copied the eff’s where is the money by asking Thuli who is the leak.
They are like nursery school children.
With apologies to my buddy in China.

@ Atlas:
Yours is the name etched next to 32,000.
The last of the 000 hits.
And the hardest worked for. By a country mile.
Muscle and blood,
sweet and grit got you that number.
My pudgy fat fingers are just not up to it.
Not anymore.
I have let my finger fitness lapse and am just a shadow of my former self.
The 000 could be yours…………………………………..but watch out for Charlie. (I think he has inside help).

A POSITIVE ATTITUDE
Saturday night a friend of mine gradually woke up stiff as a plank in the
hospital. ICU, tubes up his nose & down his throat, wires
monitoring every function, a hell of a pain over his left ear, and an absolutely
gorgeous nurse hovering over him. It was obvious he’d been in a serious
accident.
She looked at him deep & steady and he heard her slowly say, ‘You may not
feel anything from the waist down.’
He managed to mumble in reply, ‘Can I feel your tits, then?’
NOW THAT’S A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.
@ gunther:
I’m never far from your thoughts 😉
@ cane:
You have to get up early to put one over us ex-hookers.
A kindred spirit with Mr Hore if you will.
