Fair play to to them. I follow NZ but if opposition fans want to sing good luck to them. Love the Haka but other fans should be free to express thier support for their team.
No big deal.
They didn't try to drown it out they DID drown it out.
There are microphones next to the NZ players that picked it up for TV. For everyone else it was completely drowned out.
I don't understand why the haka isn't before the anthems. Seems unfair to NZ's opponents.

'...picked it up for TV." So not completely drowned out then! :silly: I saw and heard it fine from NZ thanks.

Makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Top stuff. The Haka is no more than a 60 second ad for Adidas these days.

Disgusted at Irish fans. What were they singing at end of match. I am not a New Zealander but have always enjoyed the Haka until this travel ruined it

Yes I heard that but you know, the thing is they just don’t get it. All that would have done is harden the AB resolve, in real time.
