From The Irish Independent.
Four men were arrested over a fracas following a Leinster Schools rugby match yesterday.
The incident occurred following a schools rugby match between Newbridge College and Presentation College Bray in south Dublin this afternoon.
The men were brought to Irishtown garda station in relation to public order offences.
Three received adult cautions while a fourth man, who failed to follow a garda directive, was charged in relation to public order offences.
All four men detained by gardai have addresses in Co Kildare.
The incident comes a day after gardai were called to a mass brawl between two schools.
A number of punches and kicks were thrown during the nasty melee, which took place on the street outside Kiely’s of Donnybrook, with some supporters donning jerseys of the two schools.
The incident, following the Leinster Schools Senior Cup clash between Terenure College and St Michael’s College, happened shortly after 5pm on Monday.
Kiely’s bar manager John O’Brien branded the incident a "disgrace". Mr O’Brien insisted that he had never seen such violence after any other rugby matches held in the area in his 30 years at the bar.
