A promising junior rugby league player who was filmed fighting a fellow Otahuhu College student has pleaded with the administrators of a "high school fights" Facebook page to take the video down.

The clip, which was uploaded to the page "Aotearoa Fights", showed 15-year-old Raymond Taumalolo punching another student to the ground and repeatedly hitting him in the head, One News reported.

Taumalolo said he was unsure who had taken the video filmed in March.

"To be honest, I got kind of angry 'cause I didn't want the video to get exposed out to media. I snapped after [a] guy was picking on me the whole of term one," he told One News.

The teen, who has now left the college to begin training with the Cronulla Sharks' U-16 team in Sydney, said he wanted to be an example to other students so they would learn that "fighting takes you nowhere".

"Once I landed here in Oz, started training, I finally realised that ... that will just lead you into a jail cell, like my dad said."

The page "Aotearoa Fights" has over 18,000 likes and features videos of people fighting, many of whom are school students wearing school uniforms.

Other fight videos, that appear to be between De La Salle College and Manurewa High School students, had also been uploaded to the page.
