All black's Haka Versus Irish equivalent?

Question

A few years ago there was a lot of trouble over the beginning of a rugby game where Ireland faced off the Haka with their own historical equivalent of a warrior intimidation display...does anyone know where I can download or view the video of that display?

Answer 1

Are you sure it wasn't just the Adidas commercial with the Scots and All-Blacks where the scottish lifted up their Kilts?

Otherwise, I don't know, try Limewire or Youtube. Limewire has a lot of downloadable rugby videos, and Youtube might have something online.

Answer 2

Ireland captain Willie Anderson's "men in green linked arms and began to shuffle forward into the mass of black jerseys".  See the BBC Sport video on the right-hand side

"The day Ireland threw down the 'gaunlet'(sic) to NZ"

Answer 3

As far as I know no countries other than the South Sea Islands and the All Blacks have a "Haka". It is a Polynesian war challenge. Ireland and Europe do not have the same tradition. Stirring anthems and singing, but no war dance.

Answer 4

The Wallabies did the same by walking shoulder to shoulder up to them and starring them down, seems to work ! They did the same in Rugby League but instead turned their backs to them, haha... that really got up their backs ! and we again smashed our NZ brothers inarms !
