YES, MOST OF us agree the haka is one of the most stunning spectacles in sport.
Ireland — fresh from defeat to Australia last weekend — will attempt to beat the All Blacks at Lansdowne Road for the first time ever on Sunday afternoon.
The world champions will be attempting to become the first national side to go a full calendar year with a 100% record. First they’ll do this:

The haka is an ancient ritual that should be respected by opponents of course… but how can Ireland respond to this incredible challenge?
1. Do the Poznan
If you think it’s a good idea to turn your back on 15 Kiwis doing a war dance.
2. Do this face…
3. Do a parade around the other half of the pitch

4. Do the Nidgey
5. Make an entrance like the Viper
BOD is Black Mamba, New Zealand are Buzz obviously.

6. Do the Willie Anderson like it’s 1989
Ireland still lost, mind…
