By the end of the first half Victoria was up by a score of 2-1 over New South Wales.

Keith Walker would find a loose puck in front of a large battle in front of the goal and snapped the 4th goal in for Victoria. The fifth goal game from Walker passing the puck to R. McGillicuddy from behind. Victoria would win the game by a score of 5-1 and secure the Goodall Cup.[2] [3] The Victorians would gain the honor of holding the cup until the next season it was to be contested again.[4]
