The answer depends in part on who's playing. For example, New Zealand's rugby teams are famous for the haka, an ancient Māori war dance that they perform before the match starts.

New Zealand's sports teams have been performing this dance at international competitions for over 100 years. Once the matches get started, however, the answer is simple. Fans can expect to see rugby played at the highest level in the world.
