Slapfight I: remembered fondly
Exactly one year ago Melbourne witnessed Slapfight I at the Australian Open. This year at Slapfight II: The Sequel the slapfighters have turned it up a little and employed the feared ‘kicking’ and ‘flagpole weapon’ techniques.
Crowd trouble marred the Australian Open again – exactly one year after Croatian and Serbian fans kicked each other and used flag poles as weapons outside Melbourne Park in an ugly start to the 2007 tournament.
Police needed pepper spray to control rowdy fans watching the match between Chile’s 2007 Open runner-up Fernando Gonzales and Greek player Konstantinos Economidis in Margaret Court Arena.
About two dozen Greek, Cypriot and Serbian fans were involved, according to an AFP photographer at the scene, with early reports of police ejecting four spectators.
Next year at Slapfight III there might even be punching; head butts at Slapfight IV the year after.

Melbourne has become the laughing stock of the world after the best racial brawl it could manage at a major sporting event was nothing more that a girly-man slapfight. In response to criticism about their lack of manliness the Croatian and Serbian populations of Melbourne have promised the “water pistol fight to end all water pistol fights” in the coming days to restore Melbourne’s international reputation as a town of real fighters.
