Question for NZ Breakers Players

The Haka has cultural significance. Turn your back on the haka or show disrespect and you will probably be labelled a 'racist'.

Your not going to get the same reaction for practicing during player warmups because it doesn't have ethnic/cultural origins.

IMO, Player introductions are used mainly for the home crowd and to fire them up. The Breakers didn't need to know who they were playing, they had probably been scouting them for days on end!

normally at night the lights go off and you can't warm up during the introductions unless you are Jedi , I blame the NBL for having the game too early.

Nolan, the Haka is the Maori war dance performed just before a battle.

The "Hey You" is the Bogan war dance performed in the car park of a pub

I think everyone is forgetting that the Breakers head coach is an Australian and he makes all the calls.

Sounds like the NZ coach might be getting a little a head of himself. Arrogance and Confidents are not the same thing.
