Rugby player Shane Christie died from advanced CTE linked to head trauma.
Former New Zealand rugby player Shane Christie, who died by suspected suicide in 2025, was diagnosed with advanced chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disease linked to repeated head trauma.
The diagnosis was confirmed by pathologists at the University of Auckland's brain bank.
Christie, who retired due to concussion symptoms, had advocated for player safety after his friend Billy Guyton died from the same condition.
New Zealand Rugby acknowledged the findings and stated it is committed to player well-being.
