A serious complication arose.
Initially the Rozelle Band was acclaimed the winners being incorrectly awarded 95 pts for the Test & 93 for Own Choice + 188 pts
Later it was discovered that they in fact received 92 pts for the Test . and Total of 185 pts
Elevating Geelong Municipal to 1st place 186 pts & relegating Rozelle to 2nd place with a revised total of 185 pts
