    I'll go against the grain here. I like the two of them and the excitement of wondering which one will be whipped out.

        Thank you, Joe Marler, this week was getting boring. Now, at least, we have a tabloid row about the Haka to enjoy. Hopefully "aura" and accusations of cheating will be next.

                If the All Blacks coaching staff are asked about this in a press conference, which I suspect they will be, surely the answer should be something like:

                "Joe has had his say and you're read what he said. We're focusing on letting the players we've selected have their say on Saturday afternoon. Our whole camp is united in supporting their preparations to be fully focused on the big match. We are not going to be at all distracted by anything a player who hasn't be selected by our opponent has posted on social media."

                      I'd be more.surprised if we went on a NH tour and they didn't ask for it to be banned...well, more specifically it seems to be England.

                      That said, I still think we need to ditch one of the versions of our anthem or the haha...

                          The English are just angry they haven't thought of having a chariot ride at ferocious velocity around the stadium before the game by a 2000 year old militant femme in striking headgear.

                            The BTL comments in The Telegraph are a hoot. You should get in there and get stuck in on how God Save the King is a colonialist genocidal anthem which needs to be banned...

                              The Haka, God Save The King and God Save New Zealand just aren't woke enough for 2024.

                              Come to think of it, neither is test match Rugby.

                              The entire game on Saturday should be scrapped and 80,000 in Twickenham should have a silent vigil instead to ponder the evils of colonialism. 😉

                                Maybe we could save time and have a God Save The Haka mashup?

                                        Joe Marler has re-emerged on X to say he was just having a bit of fun.

                                        Maybe he should join Planet Rugby?
