Schweitzer Klassifikation
Matt Te Pou ended eleven years as the New Zealand Maori coach in 2005. Few people have wielded greater influence over Maori rugby than this former army officer. Matt Te Pou took the New Zealand Maori team from an amateur sport to a professional game to the point where the New Zealand Maori team beat some of the strongest international sides. Matt McIllraith has been communications officer for the New Zealand Rugby Union, the All Blacks and the New Zealand Maori team and is the former editor of Rugby News. His previous book, Ten Years of Super 12, charted the history and stories behind this competition.
