If they do, you should have the option to skip it.

I wouldnt make it a priority but i think it would be a good feature in the game and would make it more real. Skip option would be a must because you wouldnt wannna watch it everytime.

I don't really see the use, When do NZ Ever do the haka besides NZ Vs Australia.. That should be a question on a Rugby site, not Rugby league.

Against every team they play.

Yeah, lol ... sure it would make the game realistic but do you really need it in there? Sure it might be good the first time but then after that WOAH where is the skip button!

Well in case you havent realised, despite the fact that the warriors are known as the NZ warriors, they are not an international team.
Only NZ international teams, such as the Kiwis and the All Blacks, do the haka before matches.

I also think the idea would be great and would defianetly add atmosphere, but even as a Kiwi I would get bored, so hopefully you can skip it.

Just to iron things out:

The New Zealand Kiwis do the Haka - they are the NZ represenative side. They play Australia, England, France, Papa Nu Guinea, Russia etc - the national representative team (same as the Kangaroos). They do the Haka before each game they play.

The New Zealand Warriors are the club side that play in the NRL competition - they have never performed a Haka, and I would imagine never would - especially as there are a number of Aussies in the team - and that would just be too funny watching them do a Haka!

Should definatley be in the game though, and as with all pre-game cinematics, should of course be able to be skipped.
