Respect right back at you brother, the future is looking brighter, it’s time for indigenous to shine. These are the rare and valuable assets/taonga to both our families, communities and countries. Role model and others will see the benefits in this modern world (Te Ao Hurihuri. You can’t this anywhere else in the world. Absolutely stunning 🔥🔥🔥
The visibly upset Maori player at 0.40 secs of the video seeing the Indigenous reflection on the Stolen generation was so poignant and respectful. So much love for our Maori, Pasifika and Indigenous brothers. Well done boys. This is has been the best game of this series.
I'm Mexican American. My mother has Tarahumara/Raramuri on her side and my father has Comanche on his side. This was beautiful. Also got me pumped up before going to work. Makes me feel spiritually confident in myself again.
"A moment of silence to acknowledge the stolen generations" i am descended from the Taino people on the island of Puerto Rico. That sentence really resonated with me.
in kkkanada, it's called the 60s scoop, but it went from the 50's-80's, and those of us who were trafficked to wyt folx are NOT respected by anyone, and certainly not by our own ppl. i respect the taino bcuz they knew to leave the table when they knew respect would never be served. i ache to join your ancestors.
@@a.m.s.twoheartalthough I feel for you, the Taíno people didn’t get a choice. Our Tainos were killed off. There was literally a handful left by the end. They were enslaved, killed, tortured and finally disease stole what was left. Our culture survives from the remnants. But Puerto Ricans are resilient people, we celebrate our Taino, our African and our Colonizer’s roots. Our history is our history but we learn from it and we make ourselves stronger. Dont let anyone, even your own people, turn you away from who you are. That is your right!
I love that even in this modern era people haven’t forgotten their ancestral ties and traditions. This was incredibly powerful to watch two nations come together demonstrating their warrior spirit
You've probably got Dutch Colonial heritage. Might be worth looking in to. I recently learned ive got Russian and Lithuanian on top of Welsh and Norwegian. Norway has a very prominent history, but I'm going to start looking into Russian and Lithuanian our heritage is important.
Being a Maori who was fostered out to a nice halfcast aboriginal family as a kid was actually such a experience love my aboriginal family frs miss them to this day love them forever to find out I was Polynesian Maori heart broke me because I wasn't a blood related to my adopted family hurt but they always said I'll always be there family and they'll love me forever man love my aboriginal culture
If you ever want to know your Maori side you can always reach out as Maori whakapapa is installed in us all if you can find out what area of nz u from just holla
Can literally feel the mana (power) through the screen! Beautiful to witness both indigenous peoples together showing strength and respect 😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
I love this. I had tears in my eyes for each culture showing a bit of who they are. I'm Native American but I can say Native to Native it still has the same pride and unity.❤
This is one of the greatest respect of a culture! We need more sports events with this kind of fight! I, as a Brazilian, would love to watch one of our rich and vast indigenous fight cultures defending our nation in a sport event.
As a white fella, watching this is awesome to see. Love seeing these two cultures come together and show us how it should be. Keep growing the indigenous game! 👍
My brother is indigineous so I wasn’t really that mad about the loss and proud of his culture for winning it. at the end of the day I just really enjoyed the match and it was close. I just hope for my maōri boys to win the next all stars match. was good game 🖤🤍❤️ 🤝 🖤💛❤️
Through all, both our cultures pain and suffering. We express our passion for who we are, through our spiritual dance. It wasn’t a war dance. It was a dance of cultural expression. Much love always to our indigenous cultures…. We all winners❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful histoy of both nations here. The Haka was first performed on a RU field when the NZ team (the Natives) toured UK in around 1890. In Wales the local spectators replied with their National Anthem which is believed to be the first time a NA was performed before a sporting event. A War Dance was performed by the Kangaroos in 1908 after the mighty Newtown Bluebags performed it at home game. It was ceased in the 1960's
Watching this on Christmas morning and in many ways it's a beautiful representation of cultures and respect. Something we usually cherish and remember during this time of the year.
Win or lose These Two teams have already got something special. Already that will carryon in the future which is honour, respect, And Aroha.(love) Magnificent.
I am Mexican, born and raised in Mexico and for me this makes all the sense in the world. We can be anything we want: a farmer, a bricklayer, a teacher, a doctor, an athlete but in the end we are warriors. The indigenous peoples of Mexico were sophisticated cultures, they built huge buildings, poetry, art, dances but they considered themselves above all things as warriors and Mexicans still consider ourselves warriors. New Zealand thank you for maintaining the native cultures and honoring it with so much love. I really admire you.
Chur to my sister and brothers 1st nation and pakeha australians who actually love our cultures , language show up please on new constitutional change voice etc we want your love darug my adopted language 4eva bb Maori roots best of all worlds heard
Wow i love how the aboriginal culture get to display their culture on TV now it's absolutely beautiful as maori i encourage aboriginal people to be proud of your culture and to never be shy to show who yous are tu kotahi tatau.
Viewing haka is for me always emotionally affecting. Each time it makes me wonder if my Viking ancestors 30 or 35 generations ago had a similar ceremonial practice.
@@shreeraaman1667 Thank you for asking, Mr r, but I'm not -- even though my parents were immigrants to the US just before the outbreak of WW II. I'm embarrassed to state that I know very little about the so-called 'pagan' religion in which the Vikings believed prior to their acceptance of Christianity in the 10th century.
State of Origin - Original States. This is IMO better than SoA. All of the comments here seems to align with the general theme. The amount of good, genuine respect for culture has, in society. Amazing to see these leaders teach the next generation, controlled power. I think that both the dance (sorry from not knowing its name) and haka was recognised for what it was. Here is our best! We're showing you our most! We're summoning support to be at our utmost. Please do the same. For the First Nations People to know, show and recognise that, was the best. Great respect for the NRL living the path to cultural inclusively. I'd love to see all NRL teams send an observer to these. That way they can bring this back to the regions they represent.
Chills … just chills and goosebumps watching this … love how cultures have not lost all their history and heritage to the white man … love the head bumps at the end
Love to see it, Māori’s definitely won the pre game! I reckon a bit more passion from the All stars, a bit more smack talking in language and more didge for sure and you got a winner! That conch was dope, well done all round!
Yowza. I'm just a mostly-unenlightened White woman from America and this stuff is SO powerful! I love the forehead touch "for unity" at the end. Thank you for sharing this!
Man, I'm a white American and we don't have anything that cool in our sports. We sing the anthem, we have entrance music, but THIS? This puts all that to shame. Cheers from NYC.
I can't wait until the Aboriginal give the Maaroi a hard time on the field when it comes to haka because then its going to be a match for the world to see. I love to see the aboriginal tribes coming alive when it comes to their way of war because it shows so much of their history in one setting as does the haka Maaori. Ti Hei Maariora
It's not "versus", it's cultural exchange, freely given, freely received, & with deep mutual respect.
well put!
one world
it's scaring anyway
We Know the Haka !
That War Cry is Jus a Copy Cat ! 🙄
I would say it is also literally "Versus". The fact that there is a challenge does not mean there is not also respect.
@@JustMassive7 no
I’m Aboriginal but the Maori Haka is something else 😤 respect to my Maori brothers and sisters ❤️🤜🏻🤛🏽
Im a kiwi. I think the aboriginal one is something else. Both really good thou
Haka can be improved by our kuzzies jumping in with us❤
Respect right back at you brother, the future is looking brighter, it’s time for indigenous to shine. These are the rare and valuable assets/taonga to both our families, communities and countries. Role model and others will see the benefits in this modern world (Te Ao Hurihuri. You can’t this anywhere else in the world. Absolutely stunning 🔥🔥🔥
Be proud of your culture brother ❤️ The legacy of our ancestors continues on through us 😉👍
A Mexican aboriginal?
As a Samoan I didn’t know which side to choose, honestly I was supporting both teams
The winner is rugby league. What a good match!
As a Maori I enjoyed both displays of culture but we all know which team Im going for when it comes to the game 😂
@@jeringatai3156 😂
great name BIg King Himself, God Team= best team
What’s the different between the 2
The visibly upset Maori player at 0.40 secs of the video seeing the Indigenous reflection on the Stolen generation was so poignant and respectful. So much love for our Maori, Pasifika and Indigenous brothers. Well done boys. This is has been the best game of this series.
People are Awesome.

Yeah bro he was crying cause he’s aboriginal as well
0:40
I noticed this and was looking for someone else that noticed too ❤️🩹👌🏼🙏🏼
I'm Mexican American. My mother has Tarahumara/Raramuri on her side and my father has Comanche on his side. This was beautiful. Also got me pumped up before going to work. Makes me feel spiritually confident in myself again.
The traditional greeting at the end, just pure respect towards each other❤
"A moment of silence to acknowledge the stolen generations" i am descended from the Taino people on the island of Puerto Rico. That sentence really resonated with me.
The same for me as an African American
The struggle is real guys

Aboriginals don’t have warrior spirit lol the Aboriginals were not a warrior society like the Māoris.
Newsflash for you....there is nothing traditional about the aboriginal dance. They just made it up pffft.
@@memine3704 source for your claim…?
@@ruthlessgaming3869yeah we were more art focused. But we did have warriors, not all of our cultures were the same some were more fighting focused
@@memine3704 yeah because we weren’t savage warheads like Māori cannibals
As a full Navajo, both have done great.
Both sides made themselves known and acknowledged each other, respectfully. ❤
@@ComaToast1Yes, we do share! We are ONE! ❤ We are INDIGENOUS! 🙌🏼❤️ koʻu ʻohana
No your not
Love the show of cultures. I'm a white Aussie but have always had a love of cultures, my own and every other! Our differences make the world so cool!
You've probably got Dutch Colonial heritage. Might be worth looking in to. I recently learned ive got Russian and Lithuanian on top of Welsh and Norwegian. Norway has a very prominent history, but I'm going to start looking into Russian and Lithuanian our heritage is important.
Iš kartos į kartą - It means From Generation To Generation. Name oc a album from Lithuania I like.
Think I'm mostly English.

I am sure you are loved by both cultures

Samoan here, proud of my both my indigenous usos ..we different but yet the same spiritually ❤❤
That was absolutely beautiful.
Love and respect out of South Africa
Man if you’re not pumped to give it your all after this then you’re never gonna be ready….so awesome!!
I love this. I had tears in my eyes for each culture showing a bit of who they are. I'm Native American but I can say Native to Native it still has the same pride and unity.❤
As a Fijian 🇫🇯 I love all indigenous people❣️
Love you brother boy my home is your home forever
great job versus Australia !
Seocnd nations people dance was so unorganised
How wee! As a half Aussie Half Maori I nearly shed a tear. The mana and love! To meke!❤
The emotion is unbelievable. Thank you for sharing this xx
What a beautiful ending to 2 beautiful cultures, that was absolutely awesome
This is one of the greatest respect of a culture!
We need more sports events with this kind of fight!
I, as a Brazilian, would love to watch one of our rich and vast indigenous fight cultures defending our nation in a sport event.
jordan riki is such a sweetie😭❤️
That amazing to watch. Both sides amazing 👏
Amazing!!! Kia kaha to our Maori/Aboriginal brothers and sister ❤️🙏💯
Kia mau te wehi! Ki te tangata whenua o Te Taihauauru, ki aku whanaunga, tena koutou , tena tatou, tihei mauriora... Whew, that gave me goosebumps...
I love the league, but this is actually my favourite part of these two playing each other.
How beautiful is that!!! Tremendous culture, and the respect they show each other? Football could certainly copy.
Love watching the moaris. What an amazing start to the game. Best I've seen. Loved every minute of it
There is so much respect from both sides. ❤
As a white fella, watching this is awesome to see. Love seeing these two cultures come together and show us how it should be. Keep growing the indigenous game! 👍
Yeah any culture as long as not white should have their own rugby ritual. Where's my Japanese war dance?
Great to see the culture is strong both countries. Luv it!!🔥🔥😎😎🤙🏾🤙🏾💯
Unbelievable, the haka is absolutely is incredible
My brother is indigineous so I wasn’t really that mad about the loss and proud of his culture for winning it. at the end of the day I just really enjoyed the match and it was close. I just hope for my maōri boys to win the next all stars match. was good game 🖤🤍❤️ 🤝 🖤💛❤️
Yeah same our boys tired themselves out before the game lol they should just do Ka Mate lol.😂
Through all, both our cultures pain and suffering. We express our passion for who we are, through our spiritual dance. It wasn’t a war dance. It was a dance of cultural expression. Much love always to our indigenous cultures…. We all winners❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Really never understood why Australia never embraced such a beautiful culture. Good to see that’s changing and hopefully continues to change
White Supremacism & Racism pure & simple.
There’s two many indigenous cultures and indigenous Australians aren’t viewed the same as indigenous New Zealanders (Māori)
Both amazing and powerful 🥰 Love the mutual respect shown 🥰
Fkn hearty 💪💪..... Much love to our aboriginal brothers.
Right back at you ! Our greatest ally THE MĀORI
Beautiful display from both sides.
was a awesome game to watch everyone was enjoying both cultures 💯♥️♥️
Fierce! Respect brothers! 🙇🏽

Хака очень нравится. 😊реально красиво. И, кажется, все мы подобное исполняли в детстве. Когда эмоции чисты, не навязаны социумом.
I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life.
Win or lose These Two teams have already got something special. Already that will carryon in the future which is honour, respect, And Aroha.(love)
Magnificent.
So amazing to watch & see both Māori & Aboriginal cultures live on. I hope we never lose this ❤
Love our aboriginal whanau ❤
We love you more ❤
There are some serious world class players in that Indigenous team.
Albert Kelly still playing they should bring back Chris Sandow
This is exactly why I love TH-cam so much as a teacher. I'm so excited to use this next year hah
Incredible, real men! The respect and honour they have for each other in the end ❤👊💪.
When a maori Haka is performed right both male and female the mana shows ! And dignity and respect 👏 it deserves in out time .
More then just rugby league!!! Meaaaannn spectacle of cultures!!! Jah love

Do they practice these dances and hakas before the game? they are all so in sync! genuine question from an outsider
Durrrrr,are you really that dumb?
They are practiced at my school Rotorua Boys High
@@zayzayzstrickland thank you
Yes they prepare and repeat
They do this their whole lives 💯
Love how our indeginous brothers stood their ground
great entertainment, good to see the indigenous keep it real simple this year after none of them had a clue how to do it last year.
What an awesome contrast!
Great game from both sides!!!👍🏽👊🏾
Amazing!!
Respect both of you maori and aborigin.
From Papua♥️♥️🙏
kinda sad coz i dont think the mic was working for the aboriginals but it was working for most of the haka
Beautiful both of them❤
That gave me chills. So deep and emotional ❤
As a South african this is truly special to see. Love these cultures
This was truly a beautiful display of cultural and sport.
