Season Summary
From 1912 to 1925, the minor premiers were deemed to be the premiers automatically as well unless two clubs were on equal points at the end of the season in which case a final was held. The Sydney Roosters is a professional Rugby league club based in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, Australia. Glebe were an Australian Rugby league foundation club who played in the New South Wales Rugby Football League 's Sydney premiership, the major competition The Newtown Jets (formerly the Newtown "Bluebags") are a former first grade Rugby league club who departed the New South Wales Rugby Football League The South Sydney Rabbitohs, also known as Souths, The Bunnies, SSFC or The Rabbits, are an Australian professional Rugby league The Balmain Tigers (also known as the Sydney Tigers from 1995-96 were one of the founding rugby league football clubs of the New South Wales Rugby League premiership The North Sydney Bears are an Australian Rugby league football club based in Sydney who currently compete in the New South Wales Cup.

With four rounds remaining in the 1912 season, Eastern Suburbs and Glebe were clearly ahead of the rest of the teams and it looked unlikely that they would be caught. The two clubs were matched up against each other in Round 11 at the Sydney Sports Ground in what would ultimately decide the fate of the premiership, with Glebe just two points behind Eastern Suburbs on the ladder. In front of 25,000 people, the two clubs played out a closely-fought match in muddy conditions. Dally Messenger was able to break a 4-4 deadlock late in the match by kicking a field goal after a scrum win close to the sideline and win the game 6-4 for Eastern Suburbs. Herbert Henry "Dally" Messenger (born April 12, 1883 in Balmain New South Wales, died November 24, 1959) was an Australian A drop goal, also referred to as a dropped goal or field goal, is a method of scoring points in Rugby union and Rugby league.
With a four point premiership lead and only three rounds to play, Eastern Suburbs, who had only lost one game before in the season to eventual third-placed Newtown, looked uncatchable.
