ABs: Hore 'let the nation down'

A remorseful Andrew Hore says he let the nation down with his swinging arm challenge that knocked out Welsh lock Bradley Davies and that he deserves the five-week suspension with which he's been administered. Hore pleaded guilty to the charge of striking Davies in the first minute of the All Blacks' 33-10 victory in Cardiff last Sunday and was handed an eight-week suspension that was reduced to five on the grounds he has shown genuine remorse by apologising to Davies and his previously clean record.
