You should be able to repair it with a small amount of wrapper leaf and some glue. I've made some decent repairs before on some pretty beaten up sticks and they've smoked like new.

Did it effect the smoke? Would you repair it in advance or just before smoking it?
Id do it in advance. I bought a few sticks a few years ago that were cheap because they were broken in places, repaired them using the wrapper of the worst one. Cut out the wrapper with a craft knife and went about patching. Let everything dry properly then back into the humi. You could barely tell they'd been broken after drying. They all smoked like new and I couldn't notice any difference in flavour or anything. In fact I think I still have a few in my singles drawers aging.
I had a CORO from a Secret Santa a few years ago that the postie jammed through the letter box... splitting it from arse to ear... it was surprisingly easy to smoke despite the damage. It unravelled just a little towards the end but was otherwise dandy...
give this one the cremation it richly deserves...
