Thought the Aboriginal language as a start to the Anthem was good, along with the challenge/war dance.

I'd have no problem with both elements being recognised and incorporated to the pre-game formalities.
 
It was a bit more aggressive than the usual one, which was good.

Still uniquely Aboriginal though.
 
I have no idea about Aboriginal tribal customs. So if this is how I am educated then so be it! Good stuff NRL.
 
Maybe we could raise some money & pass the hat around for braless Jess.
Or get Victoria's secret to sponsor the game. After each game Jess could throw one into the crowd, just like JT's headgear.

I thought the Anthem was cool, but not so much with the Haka thing.
 
Nothing beats the Maori Haka V Aboriginal War cry from a few years ago

That was pretty full on...who won the match?
(Interesting to see the Maori side included James Tamou)
 
I think Cook Islands v NZ Maori done opposing 'hakas' that resulted in an all-in fight.

Can't find the video though.

Little known fact Thurston and Tahu could change sides for a Pac Islander team. Due to the fact that both there fathers are Maori's
 
1. Aboriginal anthem verse: like it, needs to be brought into the anthem fulltime, almost as good as the Maori part of the NZ anthem.

2. War dance: we should oppose the haka with that, spears and all.
