A couple of years ago, there was a POE about unsporting behaviour being addressed even if it was directed at the same team. I seem to recall the example was the coach using profanity at his team during a TO. I'd use the same POE to address the fight.

Now, that said, I'd give more leeway to an ... animated discussion, or a slap or similar between teammates than I would if the actions were between opponents.
