Enjoy it bro: Sonny Bill Williams gives away his World Cup winner’s medal to a boy in the crowd

All Blacks centre Sonny Bill Williams gave his World Cup winner’s medal to a boy who was tackled by a Twickenham security guard after Saturday’s final.

Williams said the boy, later identified as Charlie Lines, was “smoked”  by a security official after running on to the field following the All Blacks’ 34-17 triumph over Australia.

Williams said he felt sorry for the youngster.

“I was walking around doing a lap of honour with the boys and a young fella came running out and he got smoked by the security guard, like full on tackled him. I felt sorry for the little fella.

“He would have been eight or seven [actually a teenager], I kind of felt sorry for him.

“Hopefully [the medal] made it a night to remember for him,” the All Blacks centre said. “It’s better that he has it rather than having it hang up at home.”
