The star wing was ordered to pay more than NZ$2000 in reparation and emotional harm, and also discharged him without conviction according to Stuff. 

The 27-year-old’s name suppression lapsed following the sentencing.

Court documents state that around 1.20am on November 15 2023, Reece was at the victims property where he was asked to leave by the occupants of the address after being “disrespectful to other house guests”.

Reece proceeded to get into the victim’s car which was parked in the driveway.

The Crusaders wing told police the car was running when he got in.

He then accelerated up the driveway, crashing into the victim’s garage causing “substantial damage” to the garage and vehicle.

He then got out of the car and left the residence on foot.
