Well that couldn’t have gone much worse.
International Rugby Union is a sport full of tradition. Those traditions include: red trousers, drinking Guinness and tribal rituals.
New Zealand’s Haka is a sight to behold. It’s hard to believe that, as hard as Rugby players proclaim to be, they don’t quiver at the sight of 15 Kiwis build like brick shithouses, shouting at the top of their voices.
South Africa tried something similar before today’s Test against England in Cape Town, as they sent out tribal dancers to put on an intimidating display before the teams locked horns.
It backfired spectacularly though, as the men ran out barefoot onto a rain-sodden pitch and began to slip everywhere.

They’ll think twice about sending them out into such conditions in the future.
