The Haka

[Scarfman]

Kapow!

 

[ACT Crusader]

Based on Saturday nights defensive effort, might be an idea to bring back the tackle bags response.....

 

[Reddy!]

I think the Wallabies should just get in kick-off positions while the Haka is going on and ignore it. Focus on getting their goddamn kick-offs right.

 

[RugbyFuture]

best way for the english to combat the haka is traditionally. The haka would have been done to start a war, the english should get some rifles out, and start shooting....

 

[all black rugby]

agree with cyclopath.
dont know why waltzin matilda's stopped. how about some aboroginal war cry? to acknowledge the natives?

Kick off positions wouldnt be a bad idea, Red. Forwards left or Forwards right?

Smit was probably thinking that beating the AllBlacks 3-0 was more fun.

ABR, are you an actual AllBlack, because you sound really powerful and fearsome.

And how are you enjoying your time in Australia? Bet you can't wait to get back to beautiful New Zealand.

On that theory, do the French run away from it. :lmao:

 

[Ruggo]

Stand straight, shoulder to shoulder and look them straight in the eye and proceed to get right up in their face. Don't back down and show them we mean business. We used to do this in the past. A good old fashion show down.

Half run, the other half join the AB's. (Oooh, that one stings...)

 

[Rob42]

Was it the Scots last year who wouldn't break ranks after the haka until the Kiwis did? I'm sure it didn't help their performance, but it looked impressive.

 

[Scarfman]

The only stupid thing you can do is to actually challenge them in some way. Then, you are in the shit.

The rest of the time, you should be thinking about the kick off.

Willie and the Paddies was kind off funny, at least the little wave to the crowd afterwards

[barbarian]

Yeah that wave is weird, kind of ruins the manliness of standing up to the haka.

Hmm. Nice reply. Still lost 29-9, though. They did better last year with their trackies on.

But we're in the shit anyway, how can you distinguish a revenge spanking from a generic all blacks spanking?

 

[rugbyfan]

or...you know....we could....maybe....win a game?
