[QUOTE="billyboris, post: 145851"] The hakas a challenge and I guess it's up to each team or individual to respond to that challenge in which ever way they see fit. Personally seeing a team lined up eyeballing the ABs as they do the haka shows that they are up to the challenge and it certainly fires the crowd up. One of the best responses to the haka was, here my memory fails me, during the 90's(?) when Cockerill was mouthing off at Norm Hewitt during the haka and they ended up inches from each other, practically nose to nose, it looked like they were going to bring the biff then and there. Hewitt later said that he respected the way Cockerill stood up and faced the challenge. [/QUOTE]
