1976 New Zealand rugby union tour of South Africa




1976 New Zealand rugby union tour of South Africa

In 1976 the All Blacks toured South Africa, with the blessing of the then newly-elected New Zealand Prime Minister, Robert Muldoon. Twenty-five African nations protested against this by boycotting the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal. In their view the All Black tour gave tacit support to the apartheid regime in South Africa. The All Blacks achieved a record of 18 wins and 6 losses, and they lost the test series 3-1.
