Easts' solitary point was a field goal by second-rower John Payne, who temporarily gave Tigers the lead in the first-half. Man of the match Gary Prickett scored the opening try for Wests, with lock John Ribot scoring the second just before half-time. Wests lead ~~12-1~~12–1 at half-time and effectively repelled all Easts' efforts in the second-half. The match was virtually without incident. The most blatant was a high tackle by John Payne on Wests' prop, Max Williamson. Williamson had to be helped from the field, with Payne ~~greceiving~~receiving a long lecture from referee Bernie Pramberg. '''Western Suburbs''' 16 (Tries: Gary Prickett, John Ribot.
