AFL: 7 Most Memorable Fights Of All Time

6. Cameron Cloke vs Setanta O'Hailpin

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqx0GzUOmEw You wouldn't expect such a vicious fight between team mates, but in Carlton's 2009 pre-season intra-club game when Cameron Cloke and Setanta O'Hailpin lined up against each other it ended in a fight with both men wrestling to the ground. Sentanta then managed to stand up in the wrestle before delivering a mean left hook to Cloke's face, knocking Cloke out cold, and then finished it off with a kick to the groin. Setanta was ordered to leave the field by team mates, and the club leadership group held an emergency session to decide the Irishman's future in the club. The incident was captured by camera's which were filming the clubs intra-club match and distributed to the media who aired the footage several times. The AFL, in response investigated the incident and suspended O'Hailpin for four matches. O'Hailpin would later return to the Carlton side, and help set up a run towards the finals, before being left out of the team for the elimination final against Brisbane. At the end of the year, O'Hailpin retained his place at the club, and before being delisted at the end of the 2011 season before moving to Greater Western Sydney in their foundation year. Cloke, on the other hand, was delisted at the end of the 2009 season, before moving to Port Adelaide, who delisted him after one unsuccessful season.
