[edit] Season Summary
After 18 Rounds of competition Norths and Glebe were tied atop the Points Table. Instead of the points diffrential rule being implemented a grand final was held to determine the premier. St George and University had very disppointing seasons winning only 2 games with St George conceding 316 points while University conceded 287, averaging 19.75 and 19.13 per game respectively
[edit] Grand Final
As both Norths and glebe were tied on competition points the grand final was played at the Sydney Cricket Ground on September 6, 1922. The game was not as convincing as the ladder showed, seeing Norths completley demolish glebe, winning 35-3 and taking their second consecutive premiership crown.
