Political Football
The story of six Wallabies, who after touring South Africa in 1969, opposed any further sporting contact with South Africa, as a protest against apartheid. For all but one, it would be the last time they would represent their country. Their stand gave respectability to the otherwise radical campaign against the Springbok tour in Australia, in 1971, which was supported by less than 15% of the population. The campaign not only changed the face of Australia, but also played some small part in the collapse of apartheid in South Africa, some 20 years later.
