An investigation has been launched following a brawl breaking out between under-19 players from Panton Hill and Bundoora at Cracknell Reserve.
Video seen by Star Weekly shows supporters storming the field and throwing punches in a post match brawl of the Northern Football League match.
The fight began after the final siren of the match and the crowd escalated the melee with one crowd member seen throwing several punches and knocking a Panton Hill player to the ground.
The brawl concluded when players, umpires and officials worked together to break up the fight.
