Season Summary
For this season the St George Dragons had found a permanent homeground at Earl Park, Arncliffe.
The NSWRFL introduced reserve footballs, so that the game could continue even if the ball had been booted out of the stadium.
South Sydney won each of their twelve matches during the season, and remain the only club to achieve this in the history of the competition and just one of five clubs to go through a season undefeated. Souths made a clean sweep of all three grades.
It was the first of seven premierships South Sydney would win in eight years through to 1932. There were no finals played. By round 13 South Sydney was in such a dominant position (10 points ahead with five rounds to play) that the NSWRFL curtailed the competition and proceeded to the City Cup, which Souths also won.

Famous quotes containing the words season and/or summary:
“Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime,
Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.”
—John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
