2024 Dally M Medal | Jahrome Hughes honoured with Haka

[@torettomalachi2248]

Big up to Wallbrick, he was doing that Haka to honour his brother by himself or not. Credit to Tapine & Katoa for joining in.

Would love to see brick play for the kiwis in the pacific championship

[@Ajaystylez]

@@Lespaul199 Stacey Jones has come out & said that Warbrick has pretty much secured a wing spot, he also played for the kiwis last year in the NZ ‘A’ squad

What a bunch of clowns

[@jpez1483]

As a proud indigenous man, I absolutely love the maori culture and the passion that goes into each haka. You will never see a half-hearted haka. Can see just how much it means to you guys and It gives me goosebumps watching them. From a chooks fan, congrats Jerome you had an amazing season brother. Hopefully you can top it off with a win in the big dance on sunday!

And by indigenous, you mean you were born in Australia?

[@MajorDook1]

Seriously, NZ do a haka for just about anything. Start of a game, award show, Nan's funeral, dog's birthday, new season of MAFs announced. So boring and overdone now.

[@leroy-bacon3119]

Bro that’s disrespectful. Keep comments like that to yourself .

[@quickissme]

Jah, jah, jah majorDook thankyou for that unless information.

[@MajorDook1]

@leroy-bacon3119 There's such a thing called free speech where I come from. Besides, what I said is true. They do a haka for just about everything now that it's started to lose all meaning. I saw one on KZbin a while ago where a bunch of students did a haka for a teacher who was retiring. Like seriously, talk about flogging a horse

[@Falconhalo]

@@MajorDook1freedom of speech doesn’t omit you from the consequences of your words

[@MajorDook1]

@Falconhalo Please enlighten me as to what some of those consequences might be.

[@DavidWilsenjnr]

Best, instead of giving to intalian tedesco , by the way aussies cant play league, thats why they select pacific islanders to play in state of origin , what a shame

[@russelluwarejnr1273]

Munster, dce, cleary, Moses, martin, turbo, and many more who played before were also Aussies. Like Thurston, inglis, slater, gallen, thaiday, smith, cronk and the list goes on

By the way.

They all played state of origin this year. I'm sure there's a few i've missed too but you should check the facts before you open your mouth champ.

[@jpez1483]

Also if aussies can't play league then why do they dominate the international arena😂😂

[@JK-rz9xj]

Haka is over used. Use to be for important things, now we do it for everything. Its lost its aura.

[@SexySethy]

Jarome Hughes won the Dally M medal, One of the highest awards given to an NRL player. Not to mention the fact that it's given once every year to ONE person. What those boys did for him tonight was amazing and isn't an example of the Haka being overused. Do better, rather then hating on a class gesture towards someone who ACTUALLY deserves it. Perfect use of the Haka tonight boys, well done Jahrome! ❤

[@HowYaGoin.88]

Umm explain how this wasn’t important? We live in different times mate, nothing wrong with spreading the culture and showing respect when due

[@sliccric2266]

@@JK-rz9xj as a proud Maori, haka is definitely overused. The importance of it has been diluted because it is done too often..but you know what else? I love a hearty Maori who just doesn't give a F and busts it anyway like Will Warbrick did so 🤷

[@williamhobbs2367]

These days they do the haka if you can tie up your own shoes

[@Auusieguy]

I know you will hate me but if a Samoan won the medal would they stop the proceedings and have a public prayer meeting? If someone of Asian heritage won would they hold a Buddhist, Hindu or Sikhism ceremony? If an indigenous player won would ...you get my idea. Did anyone ask permission for this to be done or did they just think it was their right to do a haka? I thought I heard the presenter say " And that concludes the coverage of the ......" Hey I am happy for "new" Australians to celebrate their heritage but the old phrase "time and place". Kiwi's talk a lot about respect but it seems its only their version of respect that counts. Hey my best mate is a Pom, My second best mate is indigenous and I'm married to an Asian lady. Call me what you wish.....

[@loki_mischief10]

Sour grapes

[@Auusieguy]

@@loki_mischief10 exactly how?

[@MoistMann]

She concluded the show everyone knew jt was pretty much finished. Stop being salty. One of the highest honours in rugby league so the fellow kiwis showed respect. You’re just not accustomed to the culture. Judging by your username you’re Aussie. The Aussie “culture” is aboriginals and not ever Aussie is in indigenous. I’m Samoan myself so I know my heritage so there’s nothing wrong with what they did here. It was 1 minute right at the end out of the whole award ceremony grow up

[@Auusieguy]

@@MoistMann A few points - Maybe look up the definition of "culture". Australia is a multicultural country - multicultural - many cultures. 3. 2%, say again, 3.2 % of the Australian population have an indigenous heritage. There is concern in NZ circles that the haka is overdone, might interest you to know a Maori co leader was kicked out the NZ parliament for doing a haka in protest.

[@MoistMann]

@@Auusieguy there are people in Australia that are from different cultures because Australia is not their native country so their culture isn’t celebrated as much as their home town would. With Australia and New Zealand both sharing the commonwealth NZ culture is celebrated heavily in Australia. It is a cultural New Zealand activity so it can be celebrated however. It’s racist like you who seem to have a problem with it. If we were in a different country and that homeland was celebrating that culture no one would say anything
