NZ Sporting History: Black power VS The Cops at League

From Afternoons, 2:25 pm on 28 April 2022

Today on NZ Sporting History we have something a little different. We go back to 1989 when, on September 2nd, a very unique game of rugby league was played.  

It was a Black Power team versus a team from the New Zealand Police.

Officially - Black Power - the gang - against the Manukau Police rugby league team

Former policeman Tony Solomona who was one of the cops who lined up for the blues on that day, he joins Wallace to talk about the unique match and how it came about!
