## Finals

At the time, the MJFA used the Argus finals system, which gave the club that finished first on the ladder at the end of the home-and-away season (the minor premiers) the right to challenge the winner of the finals series for the premiership.

## Notable events

* Round 2, originally scheduled for 7 May, was postponed by one week, and remaining rounds pushed back by one week, due to the death of King Edward VII on 6 May. The MJFA's decision followed the same actions from the Victorian Football League and the Victorian Football Association.
