The Essendon District Football League has confirmed it is investigating the reserves game between Rupertswood and Northern Saints, after police were called.
Police were called to Salesian College on Saturday afternoon.
A police spokesperson said they were called to reports of an affray during a football match in Sunbury on August 2.
“The teams were separated, and no official report was made to police,” they said.
“There were no injuries.”
The league put out a statement on Monday following the incident.
“The Essendon District Football League is aware of and is investigating an incident where police were called to a reserves game on Saturday, August 2.
“Although all parties were separated without any injuries or police reports, it is still extremely disappointing to see behaviour escalate to that point.
“As previously stated, the EDFL continues to detest anti-social behaviour and will remain steadfast in doing everything we can to stamp it out of the game we love.
“The safety of players, officials, umpires, and spectators remains paramount when attending games in the EDFL.”
