Cape Town - The South African Rugby Union (SARU) held its last General Council meeting for the year on Friday in Newlands.
The Council agreed to adopt the policy pertaining to the New Zealand Maori, which now paves the way for matches between South African teams and the Maoris.
“South Africa will play against any team which has the official blessing of its national governing body,” explained SARU president, Oregan Hoskins.
