TWO SPECTATORS involved in a fight at Etihad Stadium on Sunday aren’t welcome back, stadium officials say.
The two young men exchanged blows in the stands during the last quarter of the Western Bulldogs-Melbourne clash before stadium security intervened.
"The behaviour of the two men was intolerable and we don't want them back in the stadium," Etihad Stadium spokesman Bill Lane told AFL.com.au.
Victoria Police spoke to the men, who were kicked out of the stadium, but confirmed no charges have been laid.
The pair was seated in the premium Medallion Club area, in the third row on level two, below radio broadcast boxes.
Lane said venue officials reacted as quickly as they could.
"Our customer service and security team were on the scene within about a minute," Lane said.
"We concede that some blows did land in that time, the men were removed from the seating bowl and handed to police.
"They sustained some superficial injuries.
"Police interviewed them both, and ultimately what resulted was up to police."
Stadium officials are now in talks with the AFL about what they can do to keep the men from returning to the venue.
Lane said the venue was continuing its own investigation, including a review of CCTV footage.
