Here’s a question.
Why do some supporters complain that NZ are allowed to do the Haka, yet don’t mention anything about Ireland singing both their Anthem and Ireland’s call?
When Ireland’s Call came out for the 1995 WC, they sang only that.
So why may they do their anthem and another song to gee them up, but the All Blacks may not do their anthem and then their Haka

You should have retired while you were on the top after your victory last year.

From here on it might get ugly.
