The Hakarena (All Blacks Haka parody)

The Hakarena is a parody of our awesome haka and is a mix between the haka and the makarena.
The Hakarena is suppost to be funny in a way it is but they think that it will scare the other team it, probably will....... NEVER.
My reactions to this video is a little bit of a laugh by how they do their actions but apart from that it is just not cool..........plus i think that they think their going to beat us in the RWC their EVER gonna beat us.😝😝😝

My weekend

In the weekend I went to school for cricket, I played Maraekakaho and Twyford mixed together and my team is the Taylors. We have two people not including me in my team from our class and they are Conor and Campbell. I was the third batter and when Cameron Browning got bowled out I went in and I hit one four and six singles and then I got out on a no ball but they still counted it. Then we were on 23 runs on our 11th over and the other team was on 93 we got on way better  and then we got 92. We were so worried but then we hit four runs and won 96 - 93 yay!!!!!
