Former England international pillar Jason Leonard (56 years old, 114 caps) reacted to comments made by his compatriot Joe Marler on the All Blacks Haka. In an interview given to the media SportsBoom Leonard defended the famous traditional dance. “Personally, I think the haka should be maintained; it is part of the DNA of rugby. When I take my kids to rugby and New Zealand are playing, they are absolutely blown away by the haka. It would be a shame to get rid of it.”
“The Haka must be removed, it’s ridiculous”had written the English pillar Joe Marler on the social network He then published a message of appeasement after the controversy aroused: “Context is everything. I'm just having fun trying to generate interest before a big rugby match. There are some crazy answers. Full of love. I also needed to satisfy my narcissism.
