I really love the New Zealand haka, how cool would it be if all rugby playing countries..

Question

.... had a traditional dance?

Do you think the English could make a Morris dancing type haka?

How good would that be?

Answer 1

oh yes lets NOT jezzzz girl h**l no!!!!

Answer 2

jonquill. firstly it's not morris, it's Maori. secondly it's not dancing. it's a haka. 2 completely different things. the haka the All Blacks do is a challenge, not entertainment.

Answer 3

The poms sing Sweet Low Sweet Chariot for some reason.  

Answer 4

Can just imagine the Australian team jumping around in a circle like kangaroos.

Answer 5

that dance is part of n z  histroy ,, it would be really silly if other teams start dancing around the field  ,,,no one would accept it   ,,,

Answer 6

Maybe we could have dance offs at the end of matches and who dislocates their jaw or tongue first wins? Additional points awarded for poaching other teams dancers etc,

Answer 7

As a Kiwi I don't agree ... it's what makes us unique ... also I don't think you would get rugby players morris dancing ... esp if they had just seen the haka!

Answer 8

I have to agree with the person below me..Its Not a "dance" its a challenge being set to the opposition wich hasnt been made up outa no where its has been part of the maori and island heritage for many a year..and adapted by there sporting teams with pride...for any other countrys to try come up with their own would just be a mockery and a disgrace..

Answer 9

Only g*y teams do a dance before a game

Answer 10

I enjoy the Haka too but any more countries besides the AB's, Tonga & Somoa is too much. If all countries did it it would loose it's fire
