    Awesome stuff HB 👏.. get that shield back to the provinces where it's appreciated

    Appreciated by smashing it to pieces? Philistines, it was just restored this year

    100% take my comment back! Send it back to Wellington. 😂

    The Peace Cup, played for at Sub Union level in the North Island is still in its damaged state but inside a case. They probably won't do that for the shield.

    HB players can’t hold their booze. That’s the obvious conclusion from this incident.

    Look, lets face facts, we all know that it was Wellington boy Tiatia that dropped it.

    The new shield was built by a company in Wellington. Absolute stitch up. Likely inserted something in the wood to explode once they lost the shield. Shoddy workmanship.

    I kind of agree with Scotty Stevenson on the shield getting smashed, I not only pissed that it happened, obviously player taking it home who don't care, but then another piston wristed gibbon thought it a great idea to post pictures/video on line of how funny they thought it was! Probably me being a grumpy old bastard who has thought the Shield meant heaps, I don't even think there anything to make jokes about!

    I think that's what annoys most people. Everyone would acknowledge that accidents happen, but it's what you do next that matters, and taking photos of said broken shield and posting it on social media (even in a semi-private setting like Snapchat or a WhatsApp group or whatever) is dumb.

    I suspect there's more to come too...

    @Smudge Bang on, already there is talk of snorting drugs off broken shield! It just pisses me more all the time. Hawkes Bay won the shield, and because of f***en idiot players, they have already ruined an awful lot of the goodwill!!

    ‘Hawkes Coke Shame.’

    Hard to see this ending well for the HB boys.

    Way for the team to justify all that is written about the area

    Wow, way to taint a great win with disgusting behaviour. NZ Rugby need to take the Shield back.

    I guess the claim will be that it wasn’t one of the players but hard to believe none of the players were present when someone snorted an illegal drug off the Ranfurly Shield

    I'm disappointed that the Shield has been damaged, but I'm already reading too many assumptions about what happened.

    Shield went on the piss and got absolutely smashed

    @Canes4life looks to me like the remnants of some sort glue/sealant. The boys obviously trying to fix the shield after it broke.
