    An All Black display of support for toitu te tiriti - is igniting conversations about politics in sport

    An All Black display of support for toitu te tiriti - is igniting conversations about politics in sport


    Halfback TJ Perenara referenced the opposition to the Treaty Principles Bill in the pre-test haka.

    Team members also posed with the Tino Rangatiratanga flag.

    Rugby editor Elliott Smith says the All Blacks proudly celebrate their cultural identities.

    He says the Tino Rangatiratanga flag is part of Maoridom and a Maori movement - and so are the Maori All Blacks.

    Smith says if you're willing to have the Maori All Blacks, you can't pick and choose when Maori culture is allowed.
