The umpire was reportedly attacked after two consecutive 50-metre penalties were paid to Point Cook late in their game against Albion.
Point Cook then goaled and won the premiership.
Witnesses have said the umpire was attacked in the immediate aftermath of the match.
“We saw that umpire run for his life,” one man told 3AW.
“I would have hated to see what happened if that umpire fell.”
