In 1976 the All Blacks toured South Africa, with the blessing of the then-newly elected New Zealand Prime Minister, Rob 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 five Maori players on the tour, Bill Bush, Sid Going, Kent Lambert, Bill Osborne and Tane Norton, as well as ethnic-Samoan Bryan Williams, were offered honorary white status in South Africa. Bush asserts that he was deliberately provocative toward the apartheid regime while he was there.

  • Die Tour der neuseeländischen Rugby-Union-Nationalmannschaft nach Südafrika 1976 umfasste eine Reihe von Freundschaftsspielen der All Blacks, der Nationalmannschaft Neuseelands in der Sportart Rugby Union. Das Team reiste von Juni bis September 1976 durch Südafrika. Während dieser Zeit bestritt es 24 Spiele. Darunter waren vier Test Matches gegen die Springboks, in denen die All Blacks drei Niederlagen hinnehmen mussten und somit die Serie verloren. In den 20 weiteren Begegnungen mit regionalen Auswahlteams resultierten drei weitere Niederlagen. Internationale Schlagzeilen machte die Tour nicht in sportlicher Hinsicht, sondern vor allem aufgrund der Auseinandersetzung um die südafrikanische Apartheid-Politik.
