I think the haka's or war chants have become too comercial in alot of people's minds. They tend to look at the actions and how scary or fierce it looks..but what really counts are the meaning of these war chants to thier respective warriors going to battle,and not the spectators
never before has any team in international rugby replied to the maori haka like the tongans have, it is south pacific tradition to respond in that way, the all blacks were literally ment to be all maori hence the haka back in the 1800s, also google tonga and see who use to rule all the south pacific, goes back to b'c, does samoa have pyramids like tonga? no! just fafa's aye lol
well the jokes on you now boy cos where's the world cup??? worst year for our team EVER and that's comin' from my cousin Dougy Lol!!! before you act all cocky have a lil praise for our neighbours k, without them new zealand wouldnt be who we are today, the capital of polynesia!!!
yes niugingold! Thank you! another things, all the islands has a significant dance that represents them and makes them unique/different and beautiful in their own way! like the Maori haka, Hawaiian Hula, Faiva Tonga, Siva Samoa, Tamure of cook isles/tahiti. Don't belittle, other cultures, because thats not what our polynesian culture is about! Malo's
fair call mate, but they started doing the haka before they played matches back in 1888, hence why i assume hes talking in a sports sense not a cultural he could not seriously be that stupid in thinking that the others only invented a war dance cause the all blacks used a maori one before a rugby match...
Did you not read his comment? Clearly he implies that the Manu Siva Tau and the 'Ikale Tahi Sipi Tau are NOT tradition to the core, something only recently invented. Connotation and denotation Dirrty, look those words up! duh! I doubt you'd use the phrase 'tradition to the core' to talk about an element of Maori culture or any ethnic culture in the context of Sports. That's like saying tourists being welcomed at hotels with Hawaiian lei's is 'tradition to the core.'
Lets get real people ( Tongans and Samoans) No one can and ever will compete with the Maori Haka..its Tradition to the core..you guys just started doing it to try to be up to our standard..Be real !!Te arawa
what a retard LOL tongans, fijians, samoa, have been doing haka for decades. , you guys just brought it out to a more commercial audience and made it big. You should do some resarch beofre you write something down. Your a fucking idiot if you really wanted to compete with your haka, then take off all those fijians, samoans, and tongans of your team and lets see your maybe 3 or 4 maoris and the rest of you white guys doing the haka then , LOL
all blacks won the cup so shut up
