The fact that they beat NSW aside (Just had to get that in ) Why is there a special team just for Maori? Isn't this racism/discrimination? No other country in the world, AFAIK, has a rugby team that is restricted to people of a certain race and if the shoe was on the other foot, i.e. if only (for lack of a better word) white people were allowed in a team, there would be calls of aparthied and racism. Can anyone else see where I'm coming from?

I'm not interested in a race argument and I don't really care that they have their own team, I just want to know if I'm missing a bigger picture [img]smile.gif[/img]

For anyone that is unfamiliar with what a maori is it is the name given to the indigenous people of NZ.
