Sonny Bill Williams has given his Rugby World Cup winners’ medal to a young boy who was tackled by a security guard after running onto the pitch at Twickenham.
The All Black superstar said: “A young fella snuck on the field somehow but when he was coming up to give me a hug, he got smoked by a security guard, full-on tackled him.
“He was only eight and the other fella was a full-on man, so it looked like he would break his ribs or something.
“The moment probably just got the better of him but he was just so excited to get on the field with the All Blacks. I thought I’d make it a night to remember for him, rather than my medal being hanging up at home or something like that.”
“It will be hanging around that young guy’s neck and he can tell that story for years to come. He might be a future All Black!
