Question

What do you think of the Italians turning their backs on the NZ Haka?

Answer 1

NZ got to do what they want before kick off and so did the Italians.

Answer 2

They should ban the haka..or at least do it before the anthems. I don't understand why New Zealand traditions are more important than anyone elses, particularly away from home...they should do it when and where they are told..and allow the home team to respond to it.

Answer 3

Those Romans Catholics are stupid enough to think that they are the chosen ones and no other reigion is right and we "the rest of the world" are all going to burn in h**l.

If they can afford to spend Billions of $$$ compensating victims of paedophilia "their favourite pass time" and spread rumours like "the AIDS virus can pass through condoms" and "it is against Gods will to wear condoms anyways" without giving a penny to charity.

Then honeslty I think their opinion and actions dont count for SQUAT and it upsets me about as much as if a dog pi.ssed up against my leg ; "Bad Dog"

Answer 4

we are a footballign nation? ever heard of that sport.

Answer 5

The Haka is basicly a challange.

They turned their back on a challange,what does that say about the team?

Answer 6

Just disrespectful  if you look at things ..

Whay Italy did that is a wonder .. It just riled up the AllBlacks and they took Italy to the cleaners ..

Answer 7

After how NZ has started the game, I dont think any other teams will do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I had respect for Italy until they did that.  Wales paid the price, Italy are too... when will they learn not to mess with the HAKA!!!!!

***edit***

Oh this game is getting UGLY.... I'm lovin it!

ACMilan, yeah we've heard of Football... the Americans play it with helmets and pads hahaha.  Looks like you put your soccer team out there for this game!

Buddy, kind of the wrong place for your religious rant, but I got your back bro hahaha

Yet more misinformed drivel from nonenzedder... haven't you got anything better to do than cry because you wish you were from NZ???  The All Blacks do the Haka exactly when they are supposed to do it.  It was decided by the IRB that it would be performed AFTER the anthems.  It is a tradition going back 100 years and only one team has tried to mess with that tradition... your over rated, deluded Wales.  Not once have I seen you complain about Samoa, Fiji or Tonga performing their challenges... probably because they are teams that Wales actually has a chance of beating... but probably because you have some kind of problem with NZ.  

Your repeated criticism of the All Blacks and New Zealand are ridiculous and your obvious disdain for Kiwi's shows you to be a racist.  I couldn't imagine someone proclaiming their ignorance as much as you and if we turned every one of your comments on to "black" people or a particular religion it would be even more obvious.  Get a life you sad sad ignorant, racist, boy.

Answer 8

Pretty lame. They're paying for it now though lol! Are the Italians even trying here?? 38-0 as I type.

Answer 9

The hooligans insulting them, as in their last match with argentina, is worse. Im still embarassed by that.

Answer 10

The Italians knew that game was lost before kick off.  I thought it was a wee bit disrespectful, but what do you expect.  I wonder if they would have done that if John Kirwan was still coach.

Answer 11

They deserved what they got. LOSERS!!!

- To Nonenzedder: Anyone could do one of they're own traditions, but they don't have any as cool. We are proud of our traditions, and show it!!
