The Haka is well known to those who watch NZ Rugby teams but this is something I had not seen before.

Thanks for posting Brett. Yeah it's a good one mate and I remember seeing it on the news a while ago now. From memory it was performed at a funeral for one of our fallen troops in Afghanistan. Moving stuff.:salute::
