WHY allow New Zealand the stage for two minutes to fire up their emotions while the opposition just stand in a line and accept the challenge.
Fining England is absurd. Standing the way they did was a message saying you do not intimidate us. It would be sad to lose the prematch spectacle before playing the All Blacks but if an opponent can’t offer any form of silent but respectful resistance, then ban the Haka.
