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:
“To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all.... A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honourable to which a man can be called?”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
