England will likely be sanctioned for their "response" during the Haka.

 

I think it is stupid. The Haka is not sacred. It is a warrior challenge intended to intimidate the opponents. I feel the opponents have right to challenge back.

NZ can make throat-slitting gestures but, if another team dares place a foot over halfway, that's a $2,500 (eur?) fine.
