The New Zealand and South African rugby unions have apologised to Maori players who were excluded from All Blacks teams because of apartheid.I really don't know how sincere this apology can be. The apology should have been issued at the time for it to really hold any water but in any case I can see why the NZRU have done it. The current crop of board members had nothing to do with the original decision so if an apology is what people want then really it's no skin off their nose.
So will the next apology from the NZRU be for fielding the NZ Maori a racially selected team?
