| Quote: | THE wild brawl that marred the CAFL Grand Final at Alice Springs last Saturday has been captured on video and posted at Youtube.
The video, which contains explicit language, clearly shows the level of violence that erupted on Traegar Park after West beat Pioneer to win the 2007 CAFL premiership.
Alice Springs police will now investigate the wild brawl.
Police had earlier said charges were unlikely after the post-siren brawl, which involved players and spectators after West's four-point win over Pioneer at Traeger Park.
But Acting Commander Lance Godwin said yesterday an investigation would now be launched. He said a special team had been assigned to lead the investigation because of the number of people involved in the brawl.
"Investigators are currently taking steps to seize videos of the event to identify any offenders," he said.
"We have had contact from a number of complainants in relation to alleged assaults and are in the process of formalising these complaints."
Several players and officials were left bloodied and bruised.
Commander Godwin said police would interview witnesses and take whatever action was deemed appropriate.
"This could well result in charges being laid, but at this stage it is still early in the investigations and we are appealing for victims to come forward," he said. |
Just a snippet from that site Dave The Man posted.

What makes you say it was 'racist based' Dave. I saw/heard no mention of race or racism anywhere? |

Once of us needs to get their eyes tested Dave. There's indigenous and white players on both sides. |
