Match reports[]

1st match[]

"Victoria and New South Wales played a drawn game in the first ice hockey championship match for the Goodall cup, which has been held by New South Wales since 1923, at the Glaciarium on Saturday night. The scores were 2 goals all, but one of the New South Wales goals was scored by a Victorian player who accidentally pushed the puck through the Victorian goal. Kelly and Mitchell scored for Victoria, and together with Hoyne, were Victoria's best players."

2nd match[]

"New South Wales defeated Victoria by 2 goals to nil when the interstate ice hockey carnival was resumed at the Glaciarium last night. Both goals for New South Wales were scored by P Wendt, whose play was outstanding. The Victorians were overshadowed in the early stages, when their failure to handle the puck in front of the goal cost them the match. Wendt's fine play again was in evidence in the second period, when he went down the wing to score his second goal, the puck rebounding into the net from the Victorian goal-keeper's pads. Butler and Lloyd were Victoria's best players and Wendt and Moller were best for New South Wales."

3rd match[]

"Defeating Victoria by two goals to one at ice hockey last night, New South Wales retained the Goodall cup, which it has held for about 14 years. There was a large attendance at the Glaciarium, and the fast and clever play of both teams was much enjoyed. There was little difference between the teams, the winner showing a little more teamwork and spirit. New South Wales officials expressed the opinion that the standard of Victoria's play had never been higher, and predicted that the cup would soon change hands. Best players for New South Wales were Brown, Moller, Wendt (one goal), Wiseman, and Johnson (one goal), and for Victoria Kelly (one goal), Lloyd, and White."
