4. Western Suburbs, Souths, Eastern Suburbs, Newcastle, Cumberland, North Sydney, Newtown, Balmain, Glebe
5. Dally Messenger
6. Union
7. Souths
8. Balmain wanted to forfeit, apparently souths had agreed to but they turned up anyway and scored a try on an empty field in order to win the comp. What would have happened had Souths dropped the ball and a Balmain scrum was awarded?
