6 players have been charged by police

You'd have to ask the television and radio stations.
Maybe the rugby authorities wanted to meet out the punishment first.

I think it's the headmaster who needs to be doing the explaining.

Footage shows Blacktown players raising their hands in mock victory, four of whom now face suspensions of up to ten years, while another eight are due to face a conduct review. ''It is not pleasant, it is not nice and we will come down very very hard,'' ARL chief executive Geoff Carr said. According to the manager of the Penrith junior league, Don Feltis, some of the Blacktown City parents gave high-fives to the players as they left the field. He called the attack ''the most disgusting embarrassment to the code of rugby league''.

Good to see firm action being taken.

they are australian

it doesn't suprise me

Its a disgrace but it happens in lots of sports nowadays.
You are just lucky that the civilized English have never had these sorts of problems.
England record with fan behaviour at Cas and Hull and Leeds has always been first rate even recently.
How are the Football fans going nowadays? no Clubs being banned from Europe for a few years is there?
People in Glasshouses and all.

With your name I would have thought it was right up your alley.

This happens (albeit not to the same extent) in rugby league and rugby union every weekend. Trust me...but we just don't hear about it.

Good to hear it's being sorted out - pretty sickening incident.

The Lower Mountains team that did not retaliate have been given free tickets to Fridays semi final game Eels and the Dogs.

That's a really nice gesture, top marks to whoever thought that one up.
