As a Canadian, whenever I watch the Haka being executed, it's full on commitment from every person. Not an ounce of doubt or fear of being embarrassed (as it could feel as a teenager). Like a wall of emotion 🤯
yes i love seeing the commitment of everyone soooo much
Yes. I'd be really interested to know how they taught these white boys to have that respect.
@@ElizabethGrindon made them watch Once Were Warriors when they were in Kindergarten 😅
We start learning kapa haka in kindergarten or primary school, so those who struggle with it have stopped doing it by high-school.
It’s boring and juvenile. I would smirk at it just like Faz in ‘19.
From the uk. Passion, sport, culture, competition, emotion, history and rivalry …only New Zealand can capture all of this on a sports field.
Totally!!!
@@Challenger0074 Totally BS
@@RobRoyBoaz most comical sight since Monty Python's Ministry of silly walks. It just does not look right compared to the genuine badass Allblacks. and even they look a bit silly too if im honest.
you forgot culture-less colonists expropriating culture from those whom they give not a crap.
Have you never been to the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff....allow those things and sublime singing.
I don't get it, I'm from the UK, I've got Absolutely Zero connection to the Māori people yet Every time I watch the Haka it hits me like an emotional hammer. It's like it's in my blood. Very strange.
Australian, Irish heritage I feel the same odd yet powerful feeling of connection
It is a highly energetic emotional fierce war dance to hype up Maori Warriors before engaging in battle against another tribe or iwi.
Maori culture is very similar to Irish, Celtic culture, that's why.
@@rodnrach ahh, now that's a thing I'd not considered...
I'm bloody danish, and still get the same emotions watching. It's awsome.
Teaching the next generations of multi races New Zealanders the importance of history, culture, respect,and Nationalism.
Well done NZ
bro - you just nailed that.
@@diden3527 The European colonization of New Zealand deprived the Maoris'of their land. Tribes were in many instances reduced to poverty with no option but to live in overcrowded in overcrowded and unhygienic conditions. Losing land, they also lost access to traditional food sources. Lack of resources, overcrowding and poor diet helped disease to take hold and spread.
Is this the "tradition" that you are talking about?
@@diden3527 The Maori traditions, however, were eroded.They lost their traditional practices and their cultural identity.
Do your schools teach that when they are teaching and proudly upholding your "noble" traditions??
@@diden3527 Nationalism? You do realize, don't you, that Nationalism is what the Nazis proposed?
Nationalism creates a belief in separation and it is basis for all wars.
@@peterborelli3877 no they didnt, this video is proof of that, similar to the welsh, maoris were one of the few peoples colonised by the english that didnt have all of their traditions eroded away, the new zealand NA is half maori half english, shows what their society is like today
As a Maori Old Boy of AGS I am so impressed by the spirit expressed by my old school. The traditional rivalry between the two schools is historic - and wonderful to see continuing😊!
I think the AGS boys looked and sounded more committed. Aussie rules fan here, hope AGS won !
This is really great to see the Haka so passionately performed by all members of the New Zealand population. As mentioned by many, Nationalism, History, Heritage and above all, respect for each other which binds communities together.
Fantastic, seeing the girls and boys together performing on every level of the game. From a Scotland 🏴 and Springbok 🇿🇦 fan living in South Africa. The All Blacks are a well deserved number one ranking in World Rugby today. Again, congratulations on a spectacular Haka performance by all the participants!
it's sad to see haka is nz breed not learnt by outsides that think they nz born world gong to came to a end nothing make me from australia see how haka comes from nz culture is awesome i feel it's from own people its getting trashed by people that not from nz but think nz there home its TRASH
Much respect. I dont think any comment here tops yours. Much respect again i hope nothing but the best for you OZZY FOREVER
As an American I LOVE THIS!!! You are keeping your warrior spirit alive with the men AND women with your haka. I WISH we had something like this. It’s beautiful and ferocious at the same time.
Maybe if you investigated some Native American traditions you might find something. Not that they might be willing to share after all they have endured.
@@NeilJR I’m 1/4 Comanche…
It is beautiful!
@@Asymmetrical.athlete_ Well, go and dig, Comanche, go and dig.
Somewhere in those recesses there is something worthwhile to re-eliven and build your pride.
Do it . . . !
@Indian Empire why? We are already flooding everywhere. That would literally do no good…besides that the fact the dance didn’t even work
I am a War Veteran from NZ and I am so proud of you, Guys.
I've, sadly, never been to NZ but I watch a Haka and despite not being involved in the culture at all, I feel the intensity and the emotionality as well as bond and camaraderie across all people involved and it's beautiful. Such a magnificent tradition, and it's beautiful to see it perpetuated with each new generation. Good on them.
Мерзкая дикость!
Can you imagine all the pākehā parents looking on thinking "what's gotten into my Regina?!" No I'm kidding. They poured their hearts into it all around. Gotta love it.
actually - many of the Te Reo classes in the country are booked solid - with a large number being pakeha kiwis. I work for a significant, privately owned kiwi company, and the major owner and his family are in Te Reo courses. We kiwis are so unique, and the culture will keep us like that.
@@diden3527 I totally believe that. Hope you didn’t take my comment seriously lol but thanks for your insight!
Regina 😂
Attending one of these school games is so moving. The ground literally shakes. It touches something deep within the soul.
I cry every time I see a Haka. This was the best.
You can always cry on my shoulders beautiful lady ❤
No the haka for the funeral of Jonah lomu.
I love my country and the people that live in it so much I’m sitting watching this and tears are rolling. Go NZ you good thing! 🙏🏼
I love New Zealand, I wish I could live there❤
No you don't stop lying
@@jeffstrongman7889 money to get there, and I have 5 animals, but maybe one day, the people of New Zealand are amazing ❤️
you have every reason to be proud!!!
goosbumps!
Un sueño ir a Nueva Zelanda desde Panama admiro mucho su cultura y el rugby
What an outstanding display of passion and spirit!! New Zealand rugby and culture are both very safe in their hands!! 🥰👍
Kinda makes my old high school cheer squad, with the guys in sweaters and the girls in skirts with pompoms, look just a tad...impotent.
Lol right? I really love my HS band, but this just blows it away.
In-damn-deed…
Yes It's a bit lame to be honest.
Lmaoooo
@@gissyb1 I agree
Back when I went to college in the 70's there was only a handful of schools that performed the haka ( St.Stephens - Hato Petera ) during rugby games - things have changed for the good since those days
WESLEY!! SMASHED TIPENE!!!

@@ocevicheband502we always won the fights though...
@@tarawaukeri8928😂😂
I never tire of watching the Haka,it’s one of the great traditions of sport and these two schools did a brilliant job,well done
Why does this affect me emotionally ? I’m a 57 yr old Brit who loves his rugby and I love the Welsh at Cardiff, the French at Paris but most of all New Zealand anywhere ! There’s just something so raw, love it.
Ya ca'nt really teach "inner hatred", it comes when peoples get chinned by foreigners. You, and i have'nt had it for a thousand years, Marko. That's my reckoning on it, anyway, for what it's worth.
WITNESS An entire school and teachers, an endless line of grey flannels, ties, white shirts and blazers, little guys and up doing an emotional haka as the long black hearse with a much beloved headmaster, the silence acute, palpable surrounding the ringing chant as it slowly made its way up a long, treed, paved road to them and pausing, as the line opened for him to pass thru, hands reaching out to touch it, was the most moving tribute I have ever witnessed. I am actually tearing up at the memory writing this; I don't cry easily. He must have been a most amazing man, as they were breathtaking in their honor of him.
Uniquely New Zealand indeed. It always amazes me and fills me with such a huge amount of respect for New Zealand that the indigenous culture is so hugely respected and adopted by all despite the country being a former British colony. The indigenous culture even being adopted in a school match is so amazing to see and should an example for all on how to build an integrated society. I can only dream of South Africa even coming close to this level of respect for indigenous and other cultures.
Moved over here from ZA almost 2 decades ago, the culture here is much more respected in my experience.
The haka is so intense. “We are prepared to meet you in death”
Mike Thornton says the Haka is so intense. He quotes it as saying, "We are prepared to meet you in death." And apparently he honors that idea.
I agree. We should all be prepared to die for a rugby game, no? Women and children too!
Actually people have died for a sport and some of them were women and children.
FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES
"In Belgium in 1985, at least 41 people were killed and more than 250 were injured when rioting broke out among fans before the start of a soccer match here between British and Italian teams.
"The violence erupted as the teams -Juventus of Turin, Italy, and Liverpool, England - were about to play for the European Cup soccer championship at the 70,000-seat Heysel Stadium.
"Most of the victims were crushed under the weight of a stadium wall that collapsed when British fans charged into a section reserved for Italian spectators."
So you see? It happened already. People died for soccer and of the dead 35 were Italians and two were 14 year old girls.
English fans tore down the fence and broke into the Italian section, waving sticks and cans and lighting fires. English fans forced the Italians back against a brick wall.They were literally crushed to death because there was no escape possible.
Well, I guess it's understandable. After all Soccer on a global scale is an important sport, isn't it? Much more important than rugby. And this was a championship game which made it even more important. So important that they didn't even stop the game.
Let's see.
New Zealand whites are descended from British stock, right?
And what did the British do to the Maoris during colonization?
What did they do to the indigenous people of Australia?
And what did the white man... British, German, Spanish... do to the indigenous people of the Americas?
The USA was built on land soaked in the blood of those "pesky" indians who didn't want to be subjugated.
And those of them who surrendered? What about them?
Why the the white broke every treaty and every promise made to them, of course.
Actually according to Chief Red Cloud they did keep one promise.
He said: "They made us many promises, more than I can remember, but they never kept but one; they promised to take our land, and they took it."
At one point the American government gave smallpox infested blankets to indians already living on reservations when they complained of being cold.
Wherever the white man goes, he brings death, destruction of existing traditions and cultures and subjugation.
Should we be proud of ourselves?
I am a white American and I certainly don't feel proud of my country... not for what it did nor for what it continues to do.
During the 24 years of 3 different presidential administrations... Clinton, Bush (Baby Bush, that is) and Obama, the USA invaded 9 sovreign countries which resulted in the deaths of 11 million people.
George "Baby" Bush's criminal war in Iraq (criminal because he lied to the whole world about there being nuclear arms in Iraq) resulted in 460,000 dead 202,000 of which were civilians.
And we are still doing it.
We, the human race, have evolved technologically... no doubt about it!
But we have not gained one ounce of wisdom. Emotionally we are still the same thing as our prehistoric ancestors who huddled in caves for warmth and safety and feared the "enemy" outside.
The difference is that the "war clubs" have become modern arms and artillery... with the theat of nuclear weapons on the horizon. And if this occurs, every nation will be pointing their finger at some other nation and saying, "YOU MADE ME DO IT!"
And all this because we are ready to meet our brothers in death... over a rugby game, no less.
When are we going to wake up and be ready to meet them in life?
Well, maybe it is better to honor and be emotionally stimulated by our war-like traditions and rhetoric... until we finally bring ourselves to extinction.

I'm English and just spent the entire video with a big grin on my face. Brilliant.
I realize those are school kids. But that’s passion! Can you imagine a thousand or more warriors doing that with spears or something!?
Saffer here, NZ is our ultimate rivals on the field…but, can’t beat their spirit. They are totally focused and committed. Love that it goes down to grass roots level. This is not just about rugby, this here is nation building. I can see why so many Saffers emigrate to NZ.
Respect! As a nzder this is our top rivalry in nz schools rugby but I watched a paarl boys vs paarl gim game and the atmosphere was amazing! 25,000 in attendance one of the top school games i have ever seen
Whats a saffer
@@oldmennewgames A Saffer is a South Aftican
I feel such power from the New Zealanders watching the Haka. It never fails to lift my spirits no matter how many times I watch the different ones, from Australia 🇦🇺
The Haka is such a powerful and beautiful thing. It is such a potent call to arms! An incredibly respectful, intense and brilliant aspect of New Zealand culture.
powerfull traditions like this should never been forgoten. This is just amazing. Greatings from Mexico!!!
Awesome!!!!! I am American and the Haka just takes my breath away when I see it.
Holy Shish!! I'm a proud traumatised Australian Wallabies fan, this moved me to tears..so great to see Maori culture deeply embedded in school sport and ational culture. Who won the match? New Zealand. You are our bros, even when you pretend to hate us 😂
Wish we could have this much culture in our schools stateside… New Zealand 🇳🇿 has an amazing cultural and teaching the kids from the start what it means to have this much pride and love for there people is amazing
One of the reasons is that New Zealand immigration is really controlled. immigration that is not controlled will kill a country. 2) New Zealands have included the natives since they arrived.
There too busy trying to neuter our young men in the states.
You have look at your Native people
You have Native Americans who are almost the same beliefs & spirit as Maori
@@martinjenkins8270 Not what you think it is... They don't share collective sense of identities besides being "Native" as you put. Some tribes have rain dances but most are Christian and try to loosely reconnect to their spiritual culture, but this is nowhere near the same as the war dances of pasifika. I personally live in Arizona which has the most reservations in America. I have participated with many of their societies, they are trying to modernize, most make profits off their casinos, cows, and agriculture. Historically most tribes were warring and would routinely invade and occupy others 'territory' (many where nomadic). They certainly have profound and simple wisdom, but the sense of culture that is presented in American Westerns, is not what it seems. Many tribal nations have rampant drug issues, like hard drugs, historical alcohol abuse has also devastated them over centuries at this point. When their people go missing, it isn't in US Federal jurisdiction, so they have to figure out if they can divert department funding for recovery missions. Many women go missing on their tribal lands and its never spoken of. Because of laws that established Tribes as their own nations they are the least restricted by laws of any community in the USA.
A fine sign of unity in which I wish we could find in the USA!!! United we Stand an Divided we Fall. Lovin' the HAKA!
Unfortunately you guys managed to kill indigenous culture in your country so you will never have anything like this
In ten seconds it would be eliminated by a bunch of woke feminists. The only thing that protects it in NZ is that it is non-white tradition, but in America, whites would be accused of appropriation if they participated. This is why we can't have nice things.
Ha, Used to be the National Anthem! Sad!
LOL! USA used to be united under their anthem? Do you mean that time when society was literally divided?
USA could never learn native languages and culture, let alone song and dance. You've never been united and you've never respected the natives.
Prove me wrong, do it 😂
@@ericdpeerik3928 New Zealand has the advantage of being a small country. There were never enough Europeans to exterminate the natives. Why right next door in Australia they were doing things that would make the US look reasonable to the natives. Anyone can learn a particular native language and ritual. They just need a proper motive.
Made my hairs stand on end and even though Im not of Maori descent this made me so proud to be of South Pacific culture. So deep and so rich in culture, these Haka's are everything before a game, or even in general🙏🏾💜
The best Haka I have ever seen was at Rodney College, Wellsford. The floor was vibrating, the hall was shaking, the goosebumps enormous. So moving.
This is how every school day should start across the world. Get it into ya!
This is soooo cool. I have no idea what they are saying but it feels like they are saying: “We are warriors, we will fight for our land and our families. We accept whatever comes to us, we are not afraid, we are warriors and we will fight. God is in our side and we are invencible”. To me, it sounds like that. I love Hakka.
Yea pretty much
@@gissyb1 Yes, of course. God is on everybody's side. I wonder how it is that anyone ever loses?
@@peterborelli3877one has god on their side, and the other has god and anime on their side. the latter will obviously be the victor.
Wow! Wow! I just love how the whole school gets involved in the Hakka, so impressive
From California, followed rugby and Aussie Rules Footy for many years. The passion, power, sincerity, intensity and cultural dignity is truly displayed in these hakas, the US has nothing close, well done!
Nice to see the passion and full energy in these young men.
I don't come from this and I genuinely don't know how I would be able to do this with a straight face or even be comfortable with next to people doing it but it's so powerful to see a culture uniting an entire country
This reminds me of the kinds of rituals we've been performing for tens of thousands of years, a lot art personified on the field to this day by New Zealanders and Polynesian people. It's a spectacle for the entire world to see because I feel it touches us to our roots no matter where we are from.
OMG ! This is really awesome.
Boys & girls just master this beautiful traditional dance perfectly.
tbh the girls literally put no effort in at all. You can see how much more enthusiasm and effort the boys put in the haka vs the girls
@@youngmetro3times849 They have completely different roles to play. This Haka is one fo the most true to history Ive ever seen, women were there to offer a different kind of emotion on the battlefield.
The men were to be wild and crazy the women were to be calm and confident and central giving the fighting men an inner confidence they would win.
Absolutely beautiful to see traditional culture being shared by many races...Awesome.
Played in two first fifteen games against AGS. The Haka is way more organized than it was in my day ( although we all had to know it). These games were always a great event with crowds way in excess of 5000.
I get shivers all over my body watching the HAKA and watching this is even more powerful
This is absolutely fantastic! I feel so proud of those young people putting such incredible passion into their respective hakas. God Bless New Zealand 🇳🇿 Best wishes from the UK 🇬🇧 😊
Im not into sports but l lived in New Zealand and love the HAKA and these kids made me cry they are so intense and full of Pride only the New Zealanders can pull this sort of show off they are an IMMENSELY PROUD PEOPLE love them 💖💗
If ever you ask, "how does NZ produce so many exceptionally tallented rugby men and women, just watch this. Its about pride and passion. Long may it continue.
When l was a child, l watched the movie Zulu. The songs of zulu warriors was very powerfull and my heart to full almost explosion. It's the same with Haka. Very strong and a spiritual effect.
Sorry for my english. Greetings from southamerica.
Well dome. i am impressed that everyone in New Zealand does the haka.
Just found this, that second HAKA gave me chills
Can someone explain to me why I get goosebumps every time I see a haka, and Im a Springbok fan...
It's primal, the feeling you get when you do the haka with your brothers by your side is very unique, not many people will ever experience that feeling.
It's a primal fear response, your body tries to make your hair stand on end, in an attempt to make you look larger than the threat your facing., its also a unity song one of the reasons the Abs are so good they become one or in unison.
its so fucking gigachad
Cos it's passionate
Because the All Blacks and Springboks have played each other 103 times, with the All Blacks leading the series 61-38 (four matches drawn). The goosebumps when you see the haka result from the realization that a Springbok loss will likely follow. No insult intended. Per Wikipedia, New Zealand has a 76 percent winning record in test-match rugby, and has secured more wins than losses against every test opponent; in other words, we outside of New Zealand are all similarly situated.
WOW I am from South Africa and when I went to school we never had things like this. Amazing Amazing keep it up. Our schools have got NO MORE pride if you look at these schools the clothing is what we use to wear in the 2000"s now it is all crap, no respect. Well Done
No way this is our top rivalry is nz schools rugby and I have to say I watched paarl boys vs paarl gim game broooo that atmosphere was so amazing! 25,000 in attendance i have not seen a top school boy match like that here in nz. Sa school’s definitely know how to show out when it comes to school boy rugby
I’m from the USA an I just saw my first Hama this summer it is so intense I teach at at PreK-8th and I wish our school was this united.
A unique way to preserve elements of a distinctive culture.
A Nigerian here but I can spend hours watching Haka performance videos on CZcams.
I wish I knew what they were saying I love these I think they’re so incredible to love your culture and keep those traditions going fantastic
We need to bring this to the US instead of pretty cheerleaders. For football season, ice hockey, NBAs. It really unleashes savage competition and energizes the players. Love it!!!
Lol. Yes we dont really have cheer leaders here in NZ. Well maybe we do, I've never noticed. 😂
America is all about SEX! Physical sexuality, how you look, how much you show, how to obtain perceived beauty, how to maintain it, anything less is unexceptible. What age is acceptable for girls to wear makeup in any forum. What age children can learn about sex..on and on and on......very little empowerment of the warrior in both sex. Strong righteous caring young children should be nurtured, regardless of race, regardless of looks, regardless of stature or status. Equality and respect! Then a country will find itself, the people will find their unity and they will find empathy, love and kindness. Dam was that a dream? or the outcome of knowing....TRUTH and.....God
Impressionnant, total respect pour cette nation du rugby 🏉
I love watching a Haka ….the passion is just incredible.
so much emotion…fantastic 😍 greetings from the netherlands 🌹
Nothing like watching the geeks of a high school standing behind the jocks doing the Hakka
Im from NZ... Geeks?? Why do you think they're geeks? What's a jock ?
When a geek hakas he reaches down inside himself to find the Warrior.
If done correctly you will discover you are a Warrior.
Umm kiwi here...what geeks were...and Yeah what are Jocks? 🤔
Culture is an amazing gift
I've watched a few videos and I always get that same feeling of power. What I love about this is that everyone is involved and you can see it in their eyes that they are all taking it seriously.
WITHOUT WORDS EVERYTIME LISTEN AND WATCH THIS PASSIONED HAKA RITUAL . ♥from Perú
The original and the best ‘Get It Up Ya’ in world sport.
This is shared culture on a global scale, first the NZ All Blacks do it then it becomes something that peaks the interest of others and it becomes a knows cultural thing. This is how culture is suppose to be shared, equally given equally taken.
Piques.
It's not a All Black thing it's a 1000y old Maori tradition
@@gissyb1 that wasn't my point, which I totally acknowledge, my point was that a cultural thing was shared and became a globally known and appreciated thing.
I'm Scots Irish thru and thru. Gaelic are my roots. But the same effect THE SAME effect when I watch this. Tears of power come out of my face. Goosebumps cover the body. Hair on end. PRIDE. POWER. ENERGY. EMOTION I watch the Haka. I watch the island warrior and tribal presentations in the Merry Monarch festival. I watch the tribal presentation dances of India. Everywhere. There's a one people power that is roaring thru that and it pulls your spirit out of you, fills you with emotion and power and slams your spirit right back in. You feel ALIVE. And then you replay the video over and over.
I’m British and always fascinated with the haka and other displays, absolutely amazing. Must have been incredible for the British soldiers who landed in the territory and were faced with this… before pulling the trigger and moving on to the next place. Respect all the same. True warrior people.
England never conquered New Zealand, they sign a treaty in 1840. They finally met their match.
Bla Bla Bla@@icebergrose8955
I respect this soooo much. The discipline, the tradition, the pride that each boy experience in this moment. But.. The Springbok is not scared. 😘
J'aime et j'ai beaucoup de respect pour cette nation et ses traditions et surtout le haka et leurs grands joueurs !!
We have been playing against you guys for over a hundred years!
I don't know about the players, but at 2minutes in I'm ready to pick up my kit and go home. Beautiful and utterly terrifying, but the meanings are so moving, strong and real. Well done.
It’s so beautiful to see their warrior spirits ❤
You really, really don't want to mess with the Kiwis.
This is absolutely beautiful from any point of view.
Beautiful simply beautiful ! The kids are united they are a team ! Absolutely great pleasure to watch 😊
The guys here are loving it, every second of it. The girls, “what am I doing here with these idiots”… 😂
I'm from Southern Africa, I really enjoy New Zealand culture. It teaches me to appreciate where I come from.
As a New Zealander this is our top schools rivalry in the country lucky to be 5000 people there but i watched a paarl boys vs paarl gim and the attendance was about 25,000 and the atmosphere was amazing! South Africans definitely know how to represent when it comes to school boy rugby they’re one of the best in the world
hell yeah bro take your ancient ancestors with you where ever you go there spirit is in you stay hard bro from me a Maori
Never been in New Zealand but find haka incredible.👍
i was at this very game! , its great to see our ags sister school keeping the haka tradition alive! (im from mags)
Thank you for sharing this.
Awesome display. Such passion. For me, Auckland just edged it, with more intensity and commitment. Also, why did the King's girls put their heads down for the war cry? I'm from the UK, so I'm ignorant of the details but I'm presuming a different role for girls part of a tradition?
It appears that there are male and female students in the Haka
Not an expert but I read somewhere that there are special haka created for females and I believe the girls where integrated in a usually male performed haka.
så bra så mäktigt...greating from sweden
I'm blown away by the emotion these young people showed . Well done for keeping the tradition and culture alive😇
This is absolutely fantastic on so many levels. It’s brilliant to see the indigenous cultures kept alive by all
It's called a 'WAR CRY' sick of the NRL calling it a 'WAR DANCE' ... ain't nothing about dancing here, it's a WAR CRY to challenge the opposition and a cry to unite all their people to give them the spirit to lay down the challenge and deliver. I really am missing home but when I see this, it's comforts me to know that the Haka is still strong and part of School culture. Thanks to Rugby Union where the ALL BLACKS showed the world the Haka ... schools have built the spirits for their school cultures built off the Haka ... a Maori War Cry enriched into the fighting bloodline of all those who play Rugby and call out the challenge. Here in Australia, it's nothing more than used as a 'Showcase' as the NRL call it ... it means more to us as Kiwi's and it means even more for me as a Samoan when I perform the Haka is where home is for me even though I am not living in NZ. I am Proud to be a KIWI.
Beautiful… Absolutely beautiful 🙏🏽🤙🏽
Daang! Thanks alot! Cut,right at beginning! That line ritual thing, left me all pumped up! I'm looking for the complete game on CZcams. No matter, i don't understand rugby.
Great to see this magnificent cultural heritage kept alive to new generations!
I’m sorry but you’ve got to have that Māori blood pulsing through your veins to truly pull this off. It’s genetic. This is the most primal and masculine thing on the PLANET. I just LOVE it. ❤
Totall unity an respect 💪
This is powerful love it,all the way from South Africa.
Woww 😮 way to go , y'all are amazing !! So much love in your way :)
What a great way for boys this age to blow off overflowing energy. So powerful. Auckland took it!
That’s a beautiful sight.
Brilliant!, devotion to tradition by both groups of 'Warriors'. Faced a visiting Kiwi rugby team at Uni in the early nineties. Anyone who has faced the Haka will attest, it really is an un nerving experience!. Got our butts kicked on the field, yet in the bar after the match great mates. Happy days Nuff said. 🙂
So good to see the passion from our Rangatahi, performance, strength, courage. No one is better than the other, they were brilliant.
Now THATS passion…..
Outstanding.
From Brazil..... respect! Beautful haka!
In the Auckland Grammar Haka at the end that was my Brother B Livingston
I thought I recognized him.
