Bob Burgess made himself unavailable for the All Blacks trial for selection for a tour to South Africa as he believed to tour would have been an indication of his support for apartheid. His courageous stand in support of a decision based on his principles is discussed in this recent documentary on Māori Television (the interview with Dr. Bob Burgess starts at 11.40).
