Has there ever been a punch up in AFL ? You know when they actually throw a punch and it lands on the chops. I'm not taking the piss, I just wonder cause the small amount of AFL I have viewed over the years I have only seen bitch slapping. Ok so maybe I am taking the piss a bit.

I think the great man Dermott Brereton was responsible for a few.....just did a quick google to confirm and found this

A famous incident in 1988 involved Hawthorn's rival Essendon at Waverley Park. Brereton ran through the three quarter time huddle much to the surprise of the Bomber players causing a scuffle to break out. This incident was in retaliation to a free kick paid against Brereton for kissing Essendon's Billy Duckworth while Jason Dunstall lined up for goal. Dunstall kicked the goal but due to Brereton's indiscretion, the goal was disallowed. Brereton, fuming, ran through Essendon's huddle to prove a point. Post match, Essendon's coach, Kevin Sheedy shrugged off the event as insignificant, quipping, "Just another mad Irishman!"

If you ever get the chance to read his book - do so. He is a legend.

you throw a punch in afl and you are out for a very long time.you've seen the jersey grab 4" punch no doubt

a few years ago a mate of mine was a member of the gabba trust and we would drive up to watch the lions.

i had league up bringing then played some rugby i can tell you it is a very brutal game in parts and then tap soft as in others parts.

vossy and the scott brothers were very good at dishing it out and copping it with little fuss.

you really have to see a tough game live to be able to comment properly i believe.

league is made for tv, afl is much better live

How about a song for the thread..."How tight are my shorts" sung to the Bee Gees song "How deep is my love". Both being highly appropriate.

You must be a big unit Stuk playing rep footy as a ruck man .

Don't like the hawks hey Ted and Simondo My young fella is hawks mad . Has the jersey , hawks PJs , flags , scarf , Beeny , blankets .must admit don't mind them myself though Franklin is a bit of a worry ,were supposed to be favorites this year but struggling at the moment .
Sounds like the Saints are giving the Swans a touch up . Hate to be a NewSouth Welshman this week

Spent the arvo being close lined. Was considering throwing a few haymakers but just played the ball and not the man instead. Got flogged though. In terms of punch up's at the amateur level Scott, seems to happen atleast once per game at my club

Will do '88'

Come on Bombers.....need you to win by a few more still
