All Blacks Vs Tonga Wardance

Yes so proud to say thats my team (ALL BLACKS) We have alittle country (NEW ZEALAND) but got the worlds best Rugby Union team. The HAKA is a traditional maori war dance, its to put off the opposition and hopefully win the game (sorry to say .. we thrashed Tonga)Only the men can perform this ritual.

it's an ancient ritual from that part of the world, not only meant to intimidate enemies/foes, but also a sign of respect for them as worthy adversaries. they scream to bolster they own courage, get it?

What point do you idiots make by arguing over sports/ nationality? What point is proven?
It never fails; post a video and somewhere someone will make a derogatory rmark about nationality or someone else's preference. COMMENT ON THE VIDEO!!!! For all your effort and wit you have shown that we live in a world eaten up with racist bigots.

you see america, no stupid paddings and crash helmets!

waiooho niicee..btw check out LiveDona.com for really hot girls

All Blacks have always had great players and because of this, they have provided a great team. Half of the team is polynesian mixed with Samoan, TONGAN and Fijian.
The Tongan team don't have the opportunity to have players like the All Blacks and even so they aint scared of nothing and they still Go HARD! Hence their Tongan saying "Fear no man and don't Fear Death" and that counts for something
Plus half of the Tongan team probably work as plantaion workers and still have the courage and Pride to go fourth to Represent!
So I respect them both!
Both are Awesome!!!

this one is not as good as others ive seen, ithink because its rushed with th tongan performance,, but still good show

i'm from argentina, we have great rugby here, we've beaten the best a few times, but never the all blacks, we've only been close a couple of times. I wish they could keep up in the world cup, i don't understand why they don't win there.

Ireland, we'll kick your ass!!! hahaha just kidding, i love everybody!

thats cool... i just didnt know that choreography was part of a rugby player's training

very intimidating , the haka . im lucky enough to be from one of the other countries ( smaller yet ) to be amongst the best at rugby in the world ( Ireland! ) .

u all blacks r un-believeable. wen i watch the haka the hairs on the bck of my neck stand up. i cant wait 2 c u guys next year in the rugby world cup 2007

"that's what you see in, uh, totem poles" - lmao.

nfl is gay gay gay, its the all blacks for life, union is a much more well known sport where almost 100 nations are competing to make it into the world cup... nfl will jus be the stupid american game that has no major tournament or climax.... wud u realli want to play agst the all blacks??

Great intro...wonder what the rest of game revealed!

believe that soccer is even more gay then i thought it was.

ok, they were good for a while, but I believe there was a little rugby union competition a while ago, what was it called... oh yeah, the world cup. Didn't England win that? Beating the Australians 21-17 in the final? sorry I can't really remember. ;)

I loved it !!!!!!!! And like i care about others dumb comments. It's a tradition ....... Not all countries need cheerleaders to pump up men's adrenaline ..... Go GO GO men ....... !!!!!!!!!

Traditional fot natives of New Zealand

I play AFL and Union(which is shown on the vid) and what some people call "dance" is something more than that, it's pride for your nation, pride for your team and to play for your country and fight(doesn't have to be war) earns players resept in their country and what's not a better way than sport, i'm sure war is very pointless. anyways i play AFL for club and school, each game i play i run on average 7km or 4.3miles being a center player, in union is very tough getting back up after getting hit into the ground and the play of the ball doesn't wait for you to get up. i'm not sure what NFL is like but thats the story on AFL( Australia Football) and Union

Comparing American Football to Rugby is like comparing apples and oranges. I am American, I played football in highschool and rugby in college. They both are gruelling sports, but I have to say that all in all, Rugby requires more strength, endurance, coordiination and overall athleticism than American football.

and btw..... THE ALL BLACKS F**kING RULE!!

if u listen carefully when the bloke in red jumps up at the end, i sewar he has a squeak out.

that was really cool. that is a badass way to get pumped up!

look at these animals

rugby players are extremely tough. and they do get broken up a bit too. but they don't cry about it like our football players here do. For example Brett Farve, now there's a cry baby.

the teams, even if its fair play all da way

..

a bet they are all softies
