    Criticism of a top All Black

    Criticism of a top All Black


    Labour Police Spokesperson, Ginny Anderson says comments by Ardie Savea are concerning - since a teen died after a 'Run It Straight' game last week.

    A Palmerston North 19-year-old suffered a fatal brain injury during the tackling competition.

    Savea says similar games made him the player he is today.

    Anderson says that's not a good message for young people and it's terrible to think people are running head-on at each other.
