    He's going to come back blacker. He'll be able to Haka and do his own cultural expression. It gets serious at college level in NZ. The Rugby and the Haka wherever you come from. You'll feel the Wairua (spirit) straight away. It will enhance what you were born with. NZ is honoured to have such a great culture grace its Rugby grounds. You watch college Rugby haka in NZ. You'll know what to expect. Watch out for those Maori and Islander girls too. They can fight like a bloke. 😂🤣. All the best bro and God speed 🙏💪👏👊😎🇳🇿🇦🇺

For the record there are plenty of pacifica and aboriginal kids playing rugby at all the big schools in Syd and Brisbane. Most of them head to the NRL where they get paid young. So that part of the story seems off.

      That’s the problem. Aru is so focused on keeping rugby private only where as other countries allow private and public schools play rugby. Only way for public schools to play rugby is to join a union club. They need to expand it to public schools otherwise the talent pool will remain limited or will venture overseas.

    @EddieBravo-n6b 9 месяцев назад +2

    That's awesome to see, it just shows how poorly aus rugby is run and results are proving. They need to do more in the country if they want to get a stronger base ARU but with they way they think with all that posh school thinking I don't ever see ARU ever getting good because your best players come from the more down to earth area the poorer areas where they play harder and drive harder for success. Reason SA and NZ are so successful on the world stage. The players come from much more poorer back grounds and have more hunger for success which creates tougher competition from with in and it means standards are driven higher.

    @MrStoudemire11 9 месяцев назад +8

    As an Australian I can say he's better of becoming a New Zealand citizen and playing for the All Blacks. 99% of Australians couldn't care less about Rugby Union.
    They also couldn't care less about protecting indigenous culture apart from being forced to be WOKE out of fear that you might lose votes being called a racist.
    There are more Chinese and Indians living here then there are Aboriginals. Hence Chinese new year is bigger here then any indigenous recognitions.
