The Meaning behind the Waikato-Tainui Chiefs


Ko Waikato te awa

Ko Taupiri te maunga

Ko Te Wherowhero te tangata


Waikato Taniwhara

He piko, he taniwha

He piko, he taniwha

Waikato is the river

Taupiri is the mountain

Te Wherowhero is the chief

Waikato of a hundred chiefs

At every bend, a chief

At every bend, a chief

Explain in your own words what is the connection 
between the 
Chiefs symbol and this hepeha (Tainui saying)

    The Chiefs logo means that they are chiefs and that they will play like chiefs and i think the connection between the chiefs and the saying is that the team will play for their hundreds of supporters as 1 mighty waikato chief.
