Notes
First-class. Interstate match. This is the famous match in which Laurie Nash kicked 18 goals made up of two goals in the first quarter, two goals in the second quarter, and 14 after half-time. The list of team placings in the press shows him starting the match at centre half forward. After Bill Mohr was injured, Nash moved to full forward.
