The identities of the two teens are known and the matter has been reported to police.
They are believed to be former Farrer students, who finished at the school after completing their year 11 exams on Wednesday.
Farrer was one of the schools that competed on Wednesday night. They beat Calrossy to claim the Jack Cutcliffe Memorial Cup.
Cutcliffe said: "I don't know how they [the alleged offenders] got hold of the Cup ... but they got hold of the Cup, got on the grog and proceeded to bloody urinate in the Cup and take a video of it and put it online.'
He added: "Unfortunately, they're a blight on Farrer. But it really had nothing to do with Farrer ... all the Farrer boys, they're ropeable - absolutely shattered that this has happened.
"I think everyone needs to realise this is not Farrer: this was something by two sick bloody individuals ... It was a bloody disgusting act.
"For the life of me, I can't work out what sort of kick you'd get out of that sort of thing. It's not funny."
Cutcliffe, a longtime Tamworth builder, said his two daughters, Jessie and Georgia, were "quite upset" over the incident. He said his wife, Michelle, was also upset. "I think I was more angry and I wanted to get hold of them [the teens] and wring their bloody necks," he added.
Cutcliffe has discussed the matter with Farrer principal Clint Gallagher. He said Gallagher lamented the fact that the teens had left the school and he could not act against them.
Matt Grinter, who coached Pirates' under-19 side last season, angrily lashed out at the two teens on social media on Thursday. He urged people to delete the video.
"The act itself is downright disrespectful, disgraceful and appalling," Grinter wrote. "The hurt it has caused to Jack's family first and foremost, but to the whole Rugby Community [sic] that Jack knew and were apart of the night held last night [Wednesday,] is unmeasurable [sic]!!"
Police could not be reached for comment on Thursday.
