I have both and have poured over both.
This one, the Wedde version, has a very nice modern New Zealand aspect to it, many recent poets, respect for Maori traditions.
The older, the Allen Curnow, has a mildly confrontational introduction that takes up probably 1/5th of the book and, as discussed in great detail by James K.
