Wellington scoop co nz » Brawl at club rugby game – allegations from both clubs

Report from RNZ The father of a Wellington club rugby player was attacked and players subjected to “repeated vile racial slurs” by another club’s supporters before a fight broke out after a match on Saturday, according to Marist St Pats chairman Rob Evans. The match between MSP and Old Boys University clubs at Wellington College was marred by a brawl in the final minutes, which Evans said involved players and spectators. Wellington Rugby is investigating the brawl, which Evans said involved allegations of racial and physical abuse towards its players by OBU supporters and ex-players. “It is clear some of our players became upset following repeated, vile racial slurs and the attack on the father of one of our players by an intoxicated group of OBU supporters. Just as violence cannot be tolerated, the kind of racial abuse witnessed on Saturday has no place in our game or society,” Evans said.
