I'm Aussie, but damn the Haka is spine tingling absolutely love the passion 💯👍What an intense stand off to start the match off, bloody awesome 👏

[stth]

I love how Aussie accepted this challenge

[Geezy]

I want my mummy 😂😂😂man that was the best haka ive ever seen! Could feel that one!

4:04 the look on the Australian players gave me the “wtf are they doing” vibe 😂

As was the case in this game, the kiwis forget to switch back onto the game. The kick off was the major stuff up. They needed that heavy contact, big hit 1st tackle to keep them pumped up

*So dumb how aussie players get penalised if they approach the Haka.* But they’re allowed to do it to us. Aussie should walk forward and engage

[Tanner-]

I could not feel it in this haka, but i could definitely feel it in the second game they had against them.

The way she sang the new Zealand anthem sent chills down my spine.

[Altiar]

How long do we have to listen to Johns in the commentary box

[ashleycampbell]

Game On. Team to Team. Player to Player. No room for the faint hearted.
Any Australian player who has played State of Origin is well prepared for the HAKA and the KIWIS.

As a maori the stare down was crack up 😅

[rutpRof]

I would say the NZ rugby league's haka has now officially overtaken the NZ all Blacks haka!

[lachlanbrown]

Murray has the biggest balls on the pitch. No one stares Nelson down like that

[NZsyd]

Aussies thought the haka wasn't over

[allanvirimai]

Its a bit wierd how Test Rugby plays third fiddle to Club games and State of Origin in terms of numbers,

[samblack]

I get the haka from an NZ perspective, but from the perspective of other teams, it’s kinda weird….. you scream at us for 5 minutes before we can play ball 😂😆
