The Haka is part of New Zealand's 🇳🇿 culture, and they are the only team from the world who does the Haka. I am a South African, but I love New Zealand rugby players, and they have all my Respect. I thank God for the Rugby ever if it has a bad histor, but things have Changed it has united South American, New Zealand and many more around the world. We should learn something from Rugby
Yes. The haka is essentially a maori war dance/ challenge which is ironically routinely performed at tangis ( maori for funeral) practically every school boy knows at least one version
It’s not a war dance, it was a way too teach and spread stories and history legends through dance and song. In this context and the same as war, it’s a challenge and in the context of war it was used as an honourable way too initiate challenge and initiate combat
Rugby was like a religion when I was growing up as a young lad , I didn’t want to play it but didn’t have a say in it , I came to love the game and still do , but it’s changed a lot since then , kids enjoy playing numerous sports so that may have an effect for the All Blacks in future years ? But we have a new exciting coach and a great team right now so the immediate future looks exciting
NZ economy cannot compete with other countries Re: Coach/ Player salaries. The AB Jesery is regarded as huge national honour for players so they will vie for it in their prime and then play overseas later on in their carreer. Because of the situation within the College level, many of the young players from the lower socio-economic communities then move to Australia and play Union or League. The origins of the haka 'Ka mate' (1820 ish) pre dates the colonisation by settlers of Aotearoa/NZ(1840) . Its believed to have been 1st performed by the ABs during the Natives Rugby Tour of Nth.Hem in 1905.
Numbers of players have decreased partly due to the public awareness of long-term impact of concussion. There are some ex-All Blacks (and other players) who have been diagnosed with neurological impairment, including early onset dementia from concussion. The Black Ferns (the women's team are an amazing team. You may be able to find a lovely interview with their ex-coach Wayne Smith, who was a big gun in the coaching of men's Rugby in NZ.
They can only switch over to other countries if they have a lineage there, the money is alot bigger too. It's hard to make the All Blacks so if your talented it's best to play for other countries for a bigger cheque rather than stay in the regional tournament. We have a new All Blacks coach now though who's won that regional comp the last 7 seasons, the country is so happy lol

We have players in the nba, ufc champions, one of the best in the world at rowing, won the America’s cup a number of times, most olympic medals per capita in the world at both winter and summer olympics. All South Africa has is rugby and only that
Totally incorrect statement. NZ are regularly in the top 20 on the Olympics medal table, ahead of countries with vast populations. World renowned in rowing, kayaking, sailing, timbersports, boxing, kickboxing, mixed martial arts, shearing (yes it's an international sport), spear fishing, (also an international sport), sheepdog trials (ditto), rugby league, touch rugby, equestrian, shot put, snowboarding, bmx, triathlon, motorsports, mountain biking, cycling, cricket, golf, surf lifesaving, 1500m middle distance running, mountaineering, and softball. We currently have around 15 to 20 world champions in other sports. So do your homework before typing nonsense. OK. Chur bro.
Re Kiwi players going overseas to play, they mean that they're going over to play for the professional league clubs, for the much higher pay that's available, rather than playing for other national teams. There are a few Kiwi players representing other nations, but just a few, primarily only if they have dual heritage/citizenship with that other country.
@@piripibercic2211how’s that not true? If you take all the kiwi’s playing club rugby overseas vs the ones that play for other international teams … well its a tiny fraction. The contract that a French club can offer a 20 year old kiwi kid vs what a nz club would offer is a joke. Players are realizing this and are playing with their heads rather than their hearts. Unfortunately, like with everything else, nz just doesn’t have the money/power to keep players. Not only the up and commers, but also their abs who know if they want to secure a sweet pay check to set their families up nicely, they’ve got to make the move. I imagine how our rugby would immensely profit off of our ex-ab tallent if they would just stay and share their knowledge/expertise with the younger generations when they retire from the abs - rather than leaving to Japan/France to finish off their careers. I don’t blame them one bit though, not one bit.
More money overseas so I can’t blame the players. Had a mate back in high school (2009) that immediately left to play professionally in England after graduation.
Hi The Demouchets React, here is all the Kiwi born players who are now representing other Countries due to Residency Grounds reasons. James Lowe: Born in Nelson (South Island) of New Zealand. Played for the Maori All Blacks (from 2014-2017 season)/ The Chiefs. Which is a team in Hamilton North Island (from 2014-2017 seasons) and for Tasman (a team in Nelson South Island). Now playing for Ireland. Jamison Gibson Park: Born in Auckland (North Island) of New Zealand. Played for the Blues, a team in Auckland North Island (during the 2013 season), and the Hurricanes, a team in Wellington, North Island (during the 2015 season). Also Wellington is New Zealand's Capital. He also played for Taranaki (a team from New Plymouth in the North Island), and he played for the Maori All Blacks, back in 2012. Now playing for Ireland. Bundee Aki: Born in Auckland (North Island) of New Zealand. Was apart of the winning Chiefs squad from the Super Rugby 2013 Season. Now playing for Ireland. (The Chiefs squad is a team from Hamilton in the North Island) Quade Cooper: Born in Auckland (North Island) of New Zealand. Played for both the Reds and the Rebels, which are both based in Australia. Did play for the Wallabies, Australia (from 2008-2023). Now plays for the Hanazono Liners in the Japanese Top Rugby union club. (The Reds squad is a team from Brisbane, Australia.) He was also a part of the winning Reds squad from the Super Rugby 2011 season, and he also played for the Rebels. (A team from Melbourne, Australia) Quade Cooper, Bernard Foley and Micheal Hooper-who was a former Wallabies Captain were all left out of the Rugby World Cup Wallabies 2023 Squad. By Eddie Jones (Former Japan/England/Australian Coach). Now returning back as the Japanese coach. Micheal Lietch: Born in Christchurch (South Island) of New Zealand. Played for the Chiefs during the 2015 season. Now plays for Japan. Eddie Jones led the Wallabies Runners up from the 2003 World Cup Final, when they just lost to England. Eddie Jones was the Wallabies coach from 2001-2005 and 2023. When Eddie led the Wallabies out of the Pool stages for the very first time! From Last year, not making it through to the knockout stages.
I think the reason not as many kids are playing rugby is because society in NZ has changed. We used to love how hard and tough the game is and wanted our kids to grow up to be like that, whereas parents now are more interested in 'looking after their babies.' It's sad for rugby but it is what it is. As for players going overseas....a kiwi player can make 10 times the money in other countries....nz is just too small to pay that kind of big money...again, it is what it is. I think we've had an amazing run....dominated rugby for the best part of a century....i don't think you're ever gonna be able to discount the All Blacks but its fair to say, time's they are a changing!
Haka was traditionally only used in times of War to intimidate the enemy, sometimes if the haka was so good, the waring tribes would perform for each other and just watch like a concert😂 and no fighting would pop off lol but the last time it was performed for that purpose was in World War 2, our soldiers did a Haka before boarding the boats to go fight. Now its purely theatrical, ceremonial and for entertainment and sports. We have National Kapa Haka Competitions, School Competitions, Kindergarten (Kohanga Reo) performances, now its an entire vibe, without the killing and war involved😅 BUT if World War 3 happens you know we will be on the front line with shovels doing the Haka ready to take heads off lol. Just no Nuclear bombs!! That shits unfair lol. Haka was a way to get hype and stiffen the sinews!! In Māori HA means breath and KA means to ignite. Cheers 🍻
The overseas teams that buy NZers for coaches and players, those countries don't win against NZ, but their level of playing quality ramps up to very high levels. Ireland is a good example of this. They were coached by Shmidt (NZer), for many years... and today, Ireland is a side to be fearful of. They have beaten the All-Blacks a few times and on NZ soil. Japan is coached by Jamey Josephs, played in NZ All-Blacks in his time. Japan played Rugby, but were not a top team. Their levels have increased drastically. NZ players leave for other countries because of the money. It's too good overseas. I don't know if it's like that when it comes to sports in America... but in Rugby, the highschool you go to helps if you want to succeed in Rugby. I went to College with Jamey Josephs. Sat in Science with him. But most of the year he was away because of his Rugby Tours, across the Country and overseas. Some of your Basketball Players from USA would move to other countries to play there.
There are plenty of opportunities for sports here (scouts come to see them in high school and college). They look for opportunities abroad if they don’t make it on a team here.
even South African players do that, they leave their country to play for another country the main reason is that.. in SA there is competitions..in terms of making it to the Squad ..so they choose to play for other countries..so they can play international rugby..
Yep once a player leaves NZ for the big money overseas to play Club rugby, makes them ineligible to be selected for the ABs. You have to be playing in NZ to be selected. You can play Club rugby overseas but can't play international rugby for another country, UNLESS😅 there is a stand down period of 3 years, if a player hasn't played international rugby for 3 years, he will be eligible to play for another team. Like retired ABs who move overseas and play for 3 years, and because their parents or grandparents are of samoan, Australian, english, irish or whatever decent, makes them eligible to play for that country, but only after the 3 year stand down period, then they could switch international teams.
New Zealand did dominate..however, now there are at least 4 teams who could all easily win tournaments like Rugby World Cup. As a kiwi, we will always be proud of our rugby history and still hold on to best stats of highest winning record.
Those Kiwis are not going to Europe to play for those national teams. They are going to play for CLUBS not NATIONS. They're not even eligible to play for another country unless they have never played for the All Blacks and have a grandparent/parent from that country. it's that way for everybody. The only rule that prevents Kiwis playing in other countries from playing for the All Blacks is their own rule. They have that rule because, if you're in France it can be difficult for you to make any practices/work outs held in NZ. Other countries have the same rule but others don't. Many of the South African players play in France or England yet still play for the Springboks. It helps that they are in the "same' time-zone as Europe because they only have flight time to worry about. Not only is the flight time to NZ a problem but once they arrive their internal clock is now some 12 hours off.
LOL. I think our good mates, the South Africans, would dispute that claim. Yeah, we throw shit at each other but there is mutual respect for two great sides. Plus, even our Aussie cousins have had long periods where, certainly at World Cup times, they sat on the Throne as well. In that way, as the saying goes "Rugby was the winner".
Nz only has 5mil people, most other country's have 10-15mil, NZ still dominates though...NZ All Black Sir Wayne "buck" Shelford will always be a rugby football legend because of his 80s game against France, 10mins into the game he went into a aggresive maul losing 3 teeth and having a French boot rip his scrotum open, leaving one testicle exposed he went to the sideline to have it stitched up so he could continue playing
NZ player can make more money playing club rugby overseas, then playing for the all blacks. More and more former international players from around the world are heading to America.
Yeah the transition to another country, for any player really, is as a result of too much local talent and not enough spots and most importantly the pay check. Mrs. Demouchet, I suggest you brush up on your rugby knowledge and work your way behind the commentary mic of your local rugby team.
@@HeeniKeke Seems you have trouble with basic definition of words. Dominant, far in excess of nearest rivals. Statistic, factual and quantifiable measure. Fact, far from been dominant, New Zealand are not now nor have they ever been statistically the top team in World rugby, they have been the best at certain times but so have 5 other countries. Statistically South Africa now and Historically are and have always been ahead of New Zealand, and yet even South Africa are not dominant..
@@paulwalsh598 Again…stats prove you wrong. AllBlacks were definitely dominant. However, over last decade, other teams have caught up ….this ends the dominance.
😂😂😂 Yeah NZ dominate world rugby, except the last world cup and the one before that where South Africa beat England and then NZ consecutively, there getting beaten by Japan for christ sake. they have won only two of the last six, South Africa have won three, you could almost argue that South Africa dominate world rugby. except that's not true either on any given day the top teams can beat each other depends on a lot of factors no one team dominates.
New Zealand has highest Olympic Gold Medals per capita than any other country. NZL def are strong in other sports….Netball, Yachting, Cricket, Hockey. For a national of around 5mill people, we punch above our weight in many sports
You’ll find all black players at the end of their time with the All Blacks, Will contract to international team, and players who don’t make the ABs team, will contract to overseas teams.

Black ferns are better. Check them out.
The spectators do not do the Haka.
You can perform haka with a challenging group as support of that challenge
Most do when the haka starts , My friends and I have 😂
Money is the issue elite schools have unlimited resources and players and coaches going over seas for the game is bigger money offered
NZ player can make more money playing club rugby overseas, then playing for the all blacks. More and more former international players from around the world are heading to America.
Rugby players are ALWAYS leaving their country. Little Fiji: their players earn good money in Europe and Japan. Same with Georgia, Tonga, Samoa, etc.
The problem is the new arrivals make up 27% of our population now and they like soccer.
React to virat kohli highlights vs west indies . Kohli vs Williams ❤
Send to the form.
Yes the haka was started in sport by the all blacks it was between that time frame we've lost at home but not often
Yeah the transition to another country, for any player really, is as a result of too much local talent and not enough spots and most importantly the pay check.
Mrs. Demouchet, I suggest you brush up on your rugby knowledge and work your way behind the commentary mic of your local rugby team.
Indeed😂
There is a simple answer to the question, why do NZ dominate rugby. That answer is that they do not dominate rugby.
History and stats prove your comment wrong
I'll bet your National Sides not in the same ballpark huh
Ireland, France, South Africa and New Zealand are all dominant teams currently in rugby. Gone are the days when one team dominates
