Don’t know why but as soon as I looked at this photo I could hear the theme from deliverance playing in the background and buzz rothfield screaming “squeal like a pig boy”

Earlier in the night police defused a powder keg in western Sydney when up to 30 troublesome men on a train turned their hostility and abuse towards them.

Just before 10pm police responded to Lidcombe railway station after reports that a number of passengers were harassing and abusing other passengers on a train travelling from Sydney Olympic Park.

Officers from Auburn Police Area Command attempted to move a group of up to 30 men along when they are alleged to have become hostile and abusive towards them.

Police called for backup and were eventually able to disperse the mob and arrest seven men.

Two men, aged 24 and 29, were issued a court notice for behaving in an offensive manner and resisting an officer, and are due to appear at Burwood Local Court on October 19.

A 27-year-old man was issued a court notice for affray, assaulting police, and resisting an officer and a 26-year-old man was issued a court notice for assaulting police.

Both men will face Burwood Local Court on October 4.

A 29-year-old man was issued a criminal infringement notice for failing to comply with direction, while two other men were released pending further inquiries.

Police have obtained CCTV footage and the investigation is ongoing.

Then there's this. No mention when it went to court in the reporting that the two brothers, Connor and Gareth McKeown were Panthers fans...just a reference to Panthers/Bulldogs game. Who do you think the public thought they were fans of?

Two brothers whose images went viral after allegedly attacking a man on a Sydney train have pleaded not guilty to the assault.

Connor McKeown, 26, and Gareth McKeown, 28, appeared briefly at Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday, pleading not guilty to affray and assault occasioning actual bodily harm in company.

Police allege the brothers attacked 48-year-old Paul Roberts as he travelled home from the NRL clash between the Panthers and Bulldogs at Sydney Olympic Park on September 27.

Police allege the brothers attacked 48-year-old Paul Roberts as he travelled home from the NRL clash between the Panthers and Bulldogs at Sydney Olympic Park on September 27

The 48-year-old was covered in blood after a vicious attack from two men. The alleged culprits departed at Sydney's Central Station

Mr Roberts was allegedly punched in the face numerous times, suffering a broken nose, two black eyes and a cut to his forehead.

He also underwent plastic surgery for a cut to his lip.

The brothers voluntarily attended police earlier this month after CCTV images of the men posted by police went viral.

Within two hours the post reached 180,000 people and garnered more than 1000 shares, 490 likes and 370 comments.

The pair remain on bail, with the matter expected to return to court in December.

Emergency services were called to the scene and paramedics took Paul to St Vincent's Hospital

In September, Mr Roberts spoke about about the incident, explaining that he stepped stepping in to defend two women with the intention of preventing any violence from erupting.

He as he has been identified, was on the train from Sydney Olympic Park to Central after the Penrith-Canterbury semi-final when he saw an argument between two women and two men.

Deciding to go over and calm things down before the situation got out of control, he came away with a broken nose, two black eyes and 24 stitches to a gash on his head and lip.

'I thought I'd just ask the fellas to leave it alone and walk away, to just quieten everything down,' Paul told 9NEWS.

'There were innocent people on the train and these people were getting quite overheated.

'I didn't want it to escalate to the stage where there was any violence.'

One of the men allegedly moved to sit down in a different part of the train, but his friend is claimed to have started throwing punches.

'Loads of punches were being thrown, one of the guys pinned my arms to my side while the other one threw punches,' Paul said.

He managed to headbutt the alleged attacker - the 48-year-old's only option without the use of his arms.

Police take a statement from Paul at Central Station before he was taken by an ambulance to hospital

The alleged culprits departed at Central railway station, where paramedics came to Paul's aid.

Police confirm that at 11.50pm, the alleged victim was travelling on a city-bound train from Olympic Park with a man and two women after the Bulldogs-Panthers clash.

It's alleged Connor and Gareth McKeown boarded the train at Strathfield Station and struck up a conversation with the group.

'By the time the train reached Redfern, the 48-year-old man was concerned the conversation had become offensive,' said a NSW Police spokesperson.

'He approached the other two men in an attempt to de-escalate matters.'

Witnesses say Paul was assaulted between Redfern Station and Central Station, at which point all parties left the train.
