All blacks Haka

[john-e89]

As we're on rugby has anyone seen the all blacks perform it live?

What a brilliant tradition to keep going, I love seeing it.

Yes I've seen it art Cardiff, but unfortunately not the one where Wales refused to break afterwards and had the stand-off.
However, I do believe the crowd should respect the Haka and not sing and chant all through it, like the English fans did with Fiji's lastnight...

I think u will find a lot of the World Cup ticket buyers are not "true" rugby fans. The booing and noise when players are taking penalties and conversions is another area that is becoming very bad, especially as the game has become more commercial.
On a Saturday at a premiership league game ( season ticket holder) the noise is always at a minimum during these sections of the game. With respect being shown to the game..

Funny you should say that...
From my experience as a regular rugby supporter, the big TV screens usually have a message up saying " Quiet - Please respect the Kicker", so why are they still showing replays on the big screens, when the kicker has already teed the ball up on two occasions at Twickenham ?

I must admit it's a rare sight at the Rec, but is as you say routine its routine at internationals. Either way as a professional player, I'm sure they can block out the noise. It's all about respect really.
