The New Zealand Rugby Union has announced that it is suspending all fireworks at their games. The new rule comes after on-field fireworks at the Bledisloe Cup injured three people. The three were struck by debris when the fireworks ignited following the All Black haka.
NZRU chief executive Steve Tew said fireworks displays are off until the cause is known. He said it would be foolish to put anything on unless spectator safety can be completely guaranteed. The company involved, Van Tiel Pyrotechnics- said it has been setting up displays for the All Blacks for more than 10 years without any incident.

Fireworks are banned from Rugby union because three people got injured from them. The NZRU is trying to find out what happened. The All Blacks have had firework displays for 10 years without any incidents.
I think the fireworks shouldn’t be banned from the rugby pre-show because it actually makes the game more exciting.
