  1. Fine by me, let em' do it in the changing room from now on.

    Oppositions try to ignore it, but that upsets them and they say it is disrespectful.

    Maybe in their culture, but as guests it is they who are disrespectful.

    To them it is cultural, to the opposition it is provocative, insulting and time-wasting. Oppositions have a right to a warm-up of their choosing.

    They were hosted by Wales. They should have respected the decision, but they sulked.


  2. 'm welsh to. Apparently the WRU inisited that the Welsh national atheme to be performed last . the All Blacks unhappy with this performed the Haka in their changing room before taking the Field

  3. because the welsh had no idea how to overcome the all blacks so they decided to to dis allow the haka to take the spotlight away from  their inability to play rugby.

  4. Surprised they still wanted to do it. We were in NZ last year for the Lions tour and everytime they did at the tests it was drowned out by chants of "Lions!" Why should they get to give themselves a psychological advantage before every game. Its a good spectical but don't forget it is only allowed by the grace of the host nation, the IRB have never given it official status!

  5. yea the welsh rugby union wanted it in between the two national anthems..its supposed to be a challenge.

    it was a bit silly really cause it just pissed of the ABs and made them even more determind to completly flatten the welsh.

  6. They forgot how to chant as the Welsh had them intimidated

  7. It might have frightened the pants of the welsh.

  8. ima welshman and was hoping that the boys could do wales proud,but for them not agree on the haka was a load of c**p,i love watching them perform the haka

  9. The WRU only have themselves to blame (again)!
