Thoroughly enjoyed this, the documentary of the 1989 tour of Wales and Ireland.
There's a couple more out there, I think there's on called Blood, Sweet and Touring which is a French tour, and theres a 1991 one. Also a good one if you can find it is tv programme of the 1992 tour to South Africa which goes on tour but then also has old ABs in NZ discussing the rivalry with the Saffas.
I'll have a search for the others after work today.

Thanks. That one was very good, some of the match footage is very good and the behind the scenes stuff is fun.
Despite the caption, the full vid is available to watch now.

The South African one - 1992 return from isolation:
All Blacks for Africa - A Black and White Issue | Television | NZ On Screen
All Blacks for Africa - A Black and White Issue - This 1992 TV One documentary follows the All Blacks on their first post-apartheid visit to South Africa. The footy tour tomfoolery of producer Ric Salizzo’s earlier All Blacks docos is subbed off for reflections on politics and sport from players —...
It's in 5 parts, along the bottom of the video.

Thanks, just finished watching it. These are absolutely superb documentaries. It funny how Michael Jones loves to play his guitar, Bryan Williams said he loved to take his on tour too. So much good behind the scenes footage, it's the little things, when JK is coaching Zinzan how to play the sax and ZB gets it right and says "that's the bugger!".
I will watch that South Africa one when I get in from work tomorrow.
AS an FYI the South Africa one, IIRC, is more a general doco than the other two. (Just so you're not disappointed).

I'm not sure if kiwis would consider him a national treasure
There's still a big power junction box on the sidewalk in Rotorua - fully painted with a mural of Buck leading the haka, and the demand "Bring Back Buck"

That is cool. All being well I will be in Rotorua in July so I would love to check that out.
I may have overstated "big" somewhat - it's one of those sidewalk junction boxes, waist-height. Just past the school on Otanga Road.
It does bring a small smile to my dial every time I ride past it when visiting sister/niece/nephews nearby.
Was about to post a screenshot from Google-Street-View, but that would ruin the suspense/disappointment of your highlight of visiting Rotorua. -

Was a Manawatu supporter in those days (lived in Pahiatua as a kid), but then the mighty Bush made First Division under Sir BJ! And '10' beer was launched in green and red...
