AN ENORMOUS brawl broke out during Huddersfield Giants' clash with Hull FC.
The rugby league match ended with a win for the Giants after a tense 80 minutes.
The most dramatic moment of the fixture came in the 40th minute.
Hull's Sam Eseh was sin-binned for a "horrendous" hit with his shoulder on Matty English.
The Giants' star fell to the ground after the collision with Eseh, which sparked complaints from his team-mates.
A ruck ensued, which quickly turned into a mass brawl between the two teams.
In one scrap, George Flannagan was thrown to the ground by his own scrum cap.
This led the brawl to continue from the middle of the pitch to past the touchline.
Eseh was handed a ten-minute sin bin for the high challenge that was deemed "dangerous".
However, he was spared sending off due to the height at which English was when contact was made.

Referee Aaron Moore explained the decision, he said: "Its dangerous.
"However, there is a mitigating factor due to loss of height, that is ten minutes."
More drama quickly followed as Liam Knight was sent off for Hull after a shoulder charge on Sam Hewitt.
The Giants were able to hold on to secure a 12-10 victory at St James Park.
