IRELAND & ENGLAND PLAY GAMES WITH NZ ANTHEM

Michael from Trentham

England got it wrong last Saturday week in the All Blacks - England rugby test, Now it was Ireland's turn yesterday.

The band at Aviva Park played only the first verse of our national anthem whereas it is practice to play the first two - the Maori version and the English-speaking first verse ( of six versus I might add).

Yet the band had played two separate versions of the Ireland national anthems.

At the England-NZ match, England had a vocalist sing to the piped music of God Save The King but didn't do the same for NZ.

Which was worse in a civility case - England gets my pick.
