    Still a bitch move to start a brawl like that with a cheap elbow then run away while your mates are getting piled into on the ground. What did he expect to happen when he threw that elbow to the side of the guys head?
    Not saying the Philo players are innocent here by the way. Pretty fucked from them too but there is no moral high ground for anyone to claim here.

    One of the Filipino players threw a fucking chair at a guy's head. Australia not innocent but the Filipinos were the ones who escalated it to ridiculously levels.

    Run away? Ffs he had the little dude smack him with a flying punch and then as he backed away he received a haymaker and had about five guys on him. But I'm sure you would have just gone toe to toe with the entire team right?

    the smiling on-court selfie from their team afterwards defies belief. You've just had your entire team ejected or fouled out, while down by 30, that massive fight happened, and you take a fucking team selfie? What the actual fuck?

    Apart from cleaners, can anyone point to anything good coming out of the Philippines? They voted in Duterte ffs.

    Haha where the hell did i mention what i would have done? One thing I definitely wouldn't have done is smack a guy in the side of the head in a cheap shot.

    Agree the philippines guys were feral. Looked like more than the players too. Pretty sure i saw someone from the crowd trying to get in on it at one point.

    Here's a take. Australia travel to one of the most violent countries on Earth, have the (spiteful, yet refereed) game in the bag and an Aussie player (before the refs decision regarding a crass foul by a Philipino) attacks an opponent with a forearm to the face.

    Philipinos are understandably pissed off and a fight erupts. Not a 1950s movie fight where everyone shake hands and buys a beer, but a real fight in the real world. You want to fight at a home stadium in a lawless country then you better be prepare for some real violence. Otherwise, take the win, let the ref control the game and go home with the points.

    Root cause of this debacle is the Aussie hero who decides that he'll attack a face and nothing else will happen.

    As for the selfie, no relevance at all to the fight, but a good opportunity to spout moral high ground.

    Poor Australia, acted like fluffybunnies but those Philipino are the disgrace for not taking shit, yeah right

    The Tall Blacks have played (and won) in the Philippines in recent years without any incident. Tab Baldwin used to be their national coach and still coaches there. It's not like this shit happens every game.

    Yep of course. Those primitive 3rd world monkeys couldnt help themselves hey? No accountability, violence is just in their nature?

    That response was absolutely disgusting regardless of where it took place.

    I’ve worked with a few of the years and they were all good fluffybunnies but they are like I Thai people I’ve worked with are-all humble and smiles and laid back until you fuck with them and then it’s going to be a very bad day.

    I don't disagree with a lot of your post - our bloke started the fight. It was a pretty nasty elbow and he deserved to be ejected, and maybe suspended.

    I'm not sure if what happened after that point was proportional to the original act, though.

    The Aussies aren't blameless, and a few of our players don't deserve much sympathy. But to excuse the actions of the Filipinos because 'they didn't start it' is pretty ridiculous.

    Lets not let facts and discussion of the incident detract TSF from the time honoured tradition of tarring everyone for the actions of a few.
