Tinnie is commonly used as slang for a runabout, or a small open aluminium boat commonly used for fishing, recreation or water sports coaching. Ironically, most items referred to in this region as "tinnies" are actually made out of aluminium. Another variant of "tinny"/"tinnie" is as a slang term for a can of beer, commonly used in Australia, New Zealand and some parts of the UK.
Rugby World Cup organisers have settled on a deal to allow beer to be served in cans at matches during the tournament, despite initial opposition from police and Police Minister Judith Collins.
