Back in 2015, Matt Dawson and the Battersea Ironsides RFC were signed up by menswear retailer Jacamo for a choreographed spoof of the New Zealanders’ fearsome pre-match routine.
Performing the ‘Hakarena’ requires four simple steps consisting of arm slaps, legs slaps, chest slaps and a hip wriggle to the specially created music track.
One fan wrote: “I wish England would do this against New Zealand just to the sake of it.”
“Amusing? Yes. Disrespectful? Yes.” commented another.
A third added: “Shockingly bad. Dawson needs to have a word with his agent about this one.”
