From Midday Report, 12:16 pm on 4 October 2023

Players from the Hawke's Bay Rugby team have yet been disciplined after their Ranfurly Shield celebrations on Saturday night, which left the coveted log of wood broken, and photographed with white powder on it.

Magpies vice captain Brad Weber and head coach Brock James fronted to media after their training this morning, but neither were at the event on Saturday night where the shield was dropped.

New Zealand Rugby has launched an investigation into the matter.

Hawkes Bay rugby chief executive Jay Campbell spoke to Charlotte Cook.
