World champion All Black Adam Thomson says the thieves who burgled his apartment can keep what they like but "for God's sake return the test jerseys".
The loose forward, who was on the reserves bench for the World Cup final victory over France, came home to his Dunedin apartment on
Sunday to find it had been burgled and his precious mementos stolen.
A stereo system, a PlayStation console, sunglasses, shoes, clothes and some foreign currency were also taken, but Thomson feels much worse about the theft of suitcases containing his All Black gear.
"Keep what you must but for God's sake return the test jerseys.. they mean nothing to you but everything to those who earned them!" He said on Twitter today.
"I was pretty naive to not think kiwis were capable of such behaviour.. So disappointing."
