A young South Sydney fan was coward punched whilst exiting yesterday’s controversial Good Friday clash between the Bulldogs and the Rabbitohs.

The victim was blindsided by the Canterbury fan just outside Gates J and K at the eastern end of ANZ Stadium.

An ambulance was called and the victim was taken to hospital.

This comes on the back of injuries to NRL officials who were bombarded with bottles after the 18-17 win to Souths.
