[QUOTE="The Flash, post: 91531"] I'm a New Zealander, and I'm right with you on this. It's just the AB's taking the historical position of always doing it last, too far. What does it matter, really? So, they've been doing it that way for 100 years. The Welsh have been singing at sporting events even longer. We can sometimes be one-eyed about things, although I myself tend to look at it from both sides. We wouldn't like Western Samoa coming over here and telling us that they get the last Haka. It was Wales home, their land, their cultural pride that should have been honoured. I'd say that about England, France, Italy or anywhere. We need to realise that the world doesn't revolve around our culture. [/QUOTE]
