Saw the tail end of it, but didn't see who out of our guys were involved. Anyone closer to the action want to shed some light on it?

Yeah from what i heard and saw, after the last goal to Le Cras, one of the MW-ers stood up and yelled something at the eagles fan across the aisle who retaliated and it got out of hand.

dont know who was involved though.

As far as I saw it was started by a non-MW Saints fan (well not a regualr anyway). who popped up out of nowhere after the siren and gace a spray to a group of celebrating WCE supporters sitting across the aisle from us. Before we knew it there were fists and boots flying everywhere.

Has been a powderkeg waiting to happen all season. The seats those Eagles fans were sitting in were MEANT to be St Kilda yearly reserved seat holders and was the front of the MW until this season.

The clubs decision to charge $180 for a season seat there meant that very few seats were sold, and the remainder are handed back to Ticketmaster to sell. The result....most home games weve had opposition supporters (and often well-oiled ones) sitting across the Aisle from one of the most passionate and biased supporter groups in the comp lol

Oh..well done to the MW regualrs who chose not to get involved. It simmered down pretty quickly one the police arrived..and the Eagles fans there (and there were plenty of them Grrrrrrrrr) were given an escort out

Expect this kind of crap at the cricket, but not at the footy. Good thing it was defused quickly. Thanks for the details Saint66au :).
