@@davengaelsimpson4437 plot twist if only the guy with the spears for cook islands came running in and speared some cunt would of made it the most memorable haka
My father is from Manihiki as was all of his family, whilst my mother and her side are all Maltese/Italian. I had to grow up in a Italian town in Australia, didnt get to see or have much Cook Islander culture around me. Was awesome looking at some comments of others proud to be Cook Islander. Was incredible to see a Cook Island Haka.
The Rarotongans and the Maori are so closely related that the indigenous languages share many similarities. I salute the Raros for challenging the haka as this is how it should be. Most other nations cannot respond to the haka because there is no depth of cultural protocol in which to respond. The best the Aussies can do is "Waltzing Matilda" - a folk song about a sheep thief. The English "swing low" while at least the South Africans have Nkosi sikelel' iAfrika. Ka Pai Maori.
We are all one people, we share culture, hold different dialects of the same language and are born of the same history and whakapapa. Don't get it twisted just because dominant Pakeha culture tells you we're different it's called divide and conquer whanau and a lot of you have fallen for it hook line and sinker. Our Pasifika cuzzies are here to stay our manaakitanga as tangata whenua should never bow to imported racist ideologies.Kia u ki te tika, te pono me te aroha tetahi ki tetahi, Mauri ora!
Maori team must of thought Kuki team were soft , but like Roy Jones said “Y’all must have forgot” Kuki enforcer Ty Pau #Wesside #Hendo South #Valley Boyz 💪🏾👊🏾💯
this is what happens when to proud cultures are up against each other, but whakapapa or genealogy say that cook islanders are our tuakana........ and i myself acknowledge that not saying that everyone should because everybody has a right to there own opinion.
Tengara Aperahama You are so right as the Kuki Airani been known as the Tuakana n the Maori been known as the Tangata Whenua n as for me I've never forgotten my early years growing up n taught we the Kuki Airani people are Porinetia(Polynesian) only to come here at 14 yrs old n told no we are Kuki Airani Maori you ask any elderly people of mine born n bred there answer will be Yeah those who are born here!!!!! as for me My ID has Always been as Aitutaki/Kuki Airani till the day I die 💖🙏💖🇨🇰
i saw this on cook islands tv when i was travelling bout 3 years ago and they had the prodigy "spitfire" in the back ground as a tv ad and ive been looking for it on you tube since then you have no idea how happy i am right now !!!! some very tough guys in that vid
Yes this was the one where the Cook Islands won by about 18 points margin but had drawn the series. well first time for everything when it comes to having a fight over a haka before the game even started, yes i saw this in Napier. One thing is for sure Cook Islanders maybe small in statue generally speaking in comparison with Samoans and Tongans, but man they are Fast and strong dudes when it comes to the crunch and No they are Not intimidated by the most ferocious of Hakas, they want to scrap
Cooklslanders are the tuakana of the Maoris .. meaning that we as Cookies are their older brother... we are the original (Maoris) *Cooklslanders* ..they are off spring of us
I agree too..l hate it when some of us mock our cook island cuzzies..I have always known they were part of us..we even look the same ...our waka stopped there for a while some hopped off and stayed and the rest carried on to Aotearoa.
The southern hemisphere rugby players are on a different level compared to those of the northern (tradition wise). It is a shame New-Zealand have not won a World Cup in over 16 odd years??? Maybe skill wise they are now falling behind their northern opponents. I would love to see the Abor's, Maori's, cookies face Munster in Thormand Park in Éire. That would just take club football to a differenthigher level.
no but the cooks have the closest polynesian language to Maori some Maori and Cooks have the same Tupuna (ancester) called Paikea, all other polynesian languages have similar words and have ancestral connections
it's a huge challenge for any team who challenges the maori united as one cause they'll give anyone a good go, thats why if the cook islands want to improve themselves and become world beaters without facing big international sides they should just keep having games against the maoris which will make them a world class team
Lmao hes the one who started it, he shouldnt have started it while the kukis were still doing their pe'e. Thats very disrespectful. Yes the kukis got in their face, but thats how these war dances work, you intimidate your opponent. He retaliated in something that both teams are doing, DISRESPECTFUL.
Is it me.....or is there just no AUDIO!!! Dang it!! I love to watch these HAKA's with some SOUND please and this looked like and very interesting one, too!!!
This is a great reply here... purbanegoro, these are things i've learned through my studies in anthropology and human migration. Set these fools straight! Props to this from the states!
pacific island people including maori were outcast from asia it was pretty much make boats and leave or b killd so that was us across the southern oceans along the journey we stopd at hawaikii of course some people didn't make it but the strong and eager ones did and after a while one man Andre Akarana Toma paikia who was a stubborn and competitive young chief who had claimed to call himself a Maori. Because of this it divided the island and Andre had a dream of a place that was beautiful and green with the freshest water streams and that was the land of the long white cloud so he set him and his people onward further south deeper in the southern oceans as he lead his people some just could not take the power of the rapid oceans this is why people ended up on samoa and tonga and cook islands because the oceans veered them off track we the maori made it to NZ Aotearoa that's what makes us the great MAORI warriors F.T.W feed the whanau
Bro it shouldn't be forgotten that a war dance or cry is done before battle so a fight between the two culturally immersed sides should've been expected considering the passion and pride held in regards to there respective jersey...pretty intense lol
Yes,England if they had sent down the entire fleet wouldve "eventually" won,but,if they did that as said before,it would open them up for attacks from their neighbours.The ones they did send however were beaten considering the technology/man and gun power the brits had.
rugby league and union seperated in the late 1800's. there are many differences, the main being that rugby league is played with 13 compared with union's 15. There are no rucks or lineouts in league, after 6 tackles the ball is turned over to the other team and the scrums are uncontested
Cook island is a country of its own, also known as Rarotonga. Polynesia is made up of many islands including Hawaii, Samoa, Tonga, Aotearoa (New Zealand) Niue, Tuvalu, Rapanui and many others not mentioned. The people of these Islands are collectively known as Polynesians.
Hmmm alot of donuts on this page lmao...this haka, Meitaki! Dont you hate it when people say their nationality is "rarotonga"!! if you were to go overseas and someone asked you what nationality are you, you wouldnt say "Wellingtonian". Im just saying, Like if you agree. SUUWOOOOOP!
To all those of another culture: Dont be scared! This - that - wasnt a Pacific Islander (NZ; Cook Island) thing, It was a MALE thing! Intimidation;Power struggles; Dominance on the field? That s got Testosterone written all over it. Agree? Thumbs up!
hahaha!! i am from my own island known as the Cock Islands haha! its a shame how people dont know the history between the Cook Islands and New Zealand Maori not realising how real close related we are.. boy do i have some storys. have a nice day :D:D
@ralphyboy1 Malaysian Archipelago, and before that what is now Taiwan. Pretty crazy that the people of such a little place spread so far out in the world. Even Madagascar.
I agree with you. And I have a question: why New Zealanders and their friends from the Pacific think they have the right to delay the beggining of the match so that they can show their woooonderful culture? Wouldn't be great to see Argentines players dancing tango before the match? And the Americans dancing hip-hop! The Arabs would pray towards Mecca. What a mess.
to good the bros, both sides ae, if your gona both lay challenges down then some over powering might be needed to prove a point. just as long as proving the point is not the only win of the day and you come through with the win on the field[ battle ]or rugby field . maori too good at the end of the day like always chur
DTF MAORI the original Maori islands were the northern part of New Zealand, Niue, and the Cook Islands, Samoans and Tongans took Niue tho, and the English didn't really care for the cookies lol
Lol, I'm from northland, my tribes called te tai tokerau , we were the first Polynesians to find nz, my tribes named translated means tide of Tokelau, it's the tidal drift we followed here. How many full blooded maori you know in Cook Islands? Maori were the last of the Polynesian people to settle our island. The name Maori wasn't used until colonisation , it means normal just like dutch. Maori have origins from all parts of Polynesia
Americans certainly dont think the likes of Scribe has an American accent,he sounds more kiwi if anything.Savage has a slight American undertone,I wouldnt go as far as asying rapping with an American accent though.
Well,he doesnt sound American to me or an American so that makes it relevant since we're on the topic of "american accents".Guys like Delta and co are the reason I stated "accents other than American sound rude when rapping"...
Shows how much you know. The English did not conquer New Zealand, they got slaughtered by a race of warriors constantly at war with neighbouring tribes. the Maori tribes mostly united and repelled the English invasion. The English had to buy their way in because of their inability to conquer the Maori like they had most other indigenous people.
Well if the Americans dont think he sounds like them,than thats relevant to the point Im making.He still sounds kiwi and I wouldnt go as far as saying "immitating" them either,as they dont rap about hoochie-mama and AK47s etc...And I'll ask you again,which "Australian rappers" were you refering to before,when you said you prefered them?
