Photographer publishes Springbok Tour protest collection

From Afternoons, 1:30 pm on 27 September 2021

The All Blacks played the Springboks in an historic match this weekend - the hundredth between the two teams.

The history between the two sides and their nations has been fraught at times, and photographer Anthony Phelps has captured some of that.  

His new book September 12 The Third Test and Final Protest of the 1981 Springbok Tour is a collection of photos, most of them unseen until now, that Anthony took when he was just 19 years old. He talks to Jesse about the book.
