At least six men were involved in a wild punch-up after Thursday night’s season-opening game between Richmond and Carlton at the MCG.

 

In disappointing scenes for the AFL, a brawl broke out on the ground level of the Great Southern Stand after the Tigers posted a 33-point win.

 

The incidents follow a number of violent clashes during the 2018 season, including one after a Geelong-Melbourne game that had the managers of the Cats’ home ground discuss segregating fans.
