Manager of team meets C.A.T.
Mr Derek Morgan, the manager of the England rugby team, has had three meetings with anti-apart-heid groups since the team has arrived in New Zealand and he is prepared to have more. Mr Morgan met representatives of the Christchurch anti-apartheid group, Coalition Against the Tour yesterday and said that he had a “very interesting discussion” with the people he met. . “We didn’t see completely eye-td-eye on some matters, but they were a genuine group of people and I think the discussion was worth while,” said Mr Morgan. Mr Morgan said he respected a group’s rights to publicly express its opinion and have peaceful demonstrations, and that he would speak to other groups if they asked.
