The identity of the primary culprit (there were multiple) was confirmed the day after the incident and the parents of the boys involved have requested that the schools deal with the matter appropriately.
My information came directly from the father of one of the boys that was coward punched and then kicked. He also informed me of the nature of the injuries sustained by another of the players.

Sydney North harbour U15 beat Illawarra 65-7 by my count. Illawarra started out well and looked to be matching Sydney up front. Their backs couldn't penetrate Sydney's defence early and once Sydney started throwing the ball wide the gaps started to appear.
Standouts for Sydney (for me) were...
