From Morning Report, 8:38 am on 12 April 2018

The tragic death of a French exchange student will be commemorated this month when French and New Zealand friends meet for a game of rugby. Seventeen-year-old Peyo Crus died in January 2017 after the car he was in crashed into a tree on Auckland's North Shore. The driver, Kobus Alberts, had been drinking and was later sentenced to home detention. This month his friends from Long Bay College will travel to France for a special match against Peyo's old teammates. Tom Furley went along to a practice at the North Shore school to meet them.
