The Manly Sea Eagles have beaten the Melbourne Storm 18-4 in a fierce and at times spiteful game between the bitter rivals, with Glenn Stewart and Adam Blair sent off after fighting on their way to the sin bin.
Manly opened the scoring in the fifth minute through Kieran Foran, but the real action started in the 27th minute.
A small biff started after Darcy Lussick was unhappy with some treatment from Ryan Hinchcliffe. The fight ended in a melee, with Adam Blair and Glenn Stewart continuing to fight long after the referees had attempted to calm the game.
Blair and Stewart were both sin-binned by referee Shane Hayne, and as the pair walked off, a few choice words were exchanged before the pair exchanged haymakers.
Four Manly players, including Brett Stewart, flew in to the one-on-one which commenced a further all-in brawl that last some minutes.
The resulting ruling saw the pair sent off, while the incident was placed on report with a number of players likely to face judiciary trouble.
