Brawl in a U20 Rugby league game in Western Sydney


Three men have been hospitalized after an alleged stabbing took place in a rugby game in Sydney.

Acting Inspector Grant Morrisey said it was unclear if the incident was related to the result of the match but a kitchen knife was used in the brawl which left three men aged 16, 19 and 22 injured. They have since been taken to the hospital where two are reported to be in a serious condition.

 

NSW Rugby League chief executive, David Trodden, released a statement stating, “The incident is sickening criminal behavior and those responsible for it deserve to face the full force of law. Everyone who enjoys community sport at the weekend should expect to be able to do it in a safe environment and it is nothing short of appalling that an incident like this has taken place in an area adjacent to where one of our matches was being conducted.”

 

Both teams involved in the altercation have been stood down pending the outcome from police investigation.
